Apologies for the downtime this morning. This was due to an outage at a data centre. Everything should be back to normal now.
Help, Suggestions, Future of The D-Word
Difficulties with The D-Word? If you can't find the right answers on our Help page, please post in this topic. Ideas for future D-Word releases or projects can be posted here as well.
Anybody have a licensing contact at C-SPAN? I've got a bunch of footage that I need to get cleared, and it seems too much for the std form they offer on the website....?
Probably, but I'd leave it in Legal since most will see it there. If you don't get a response within a few days, maybe then re-post in Research.
Thx DB
Trying to add a film to my profile and getting an error message that the Vimeo.com URL is not valid ... not sure why this would be the case ... ;-)
Thanks. The same problem seems to exist elsewhere in the site. For example, I was unable to embed a YouTube video in the Cameras topic although the URL exactly matched the formatting of the example in the error message.
As a full D-Worder you have two options, Michael – either Professional Classifieds (for other Professionals) or to reach a wider audience Public Classifieds . In fact you can post in both if you wish – the one exception we make to the double posting rule.
Hope I'm not repeating, but haven't found the answer...
I get the digest form of d-word. I've noticed it doesn't include every post from the time since the last digest, sometime half or less. Does this happen to everyone? Is there a fix?
If you've read some posts on the website they are not included in the digest. It only includes posts which are "unread", i.e. the ones that would have blue dots next to them when you come..)"
Join this discussion now. You need to log in or register if you want to post.

No. 20 Cal Lutheran Completes Epic Comeback Over No. 13 Redlands
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - The maximum capacity crowd at the newly constructed William Rolland Stadium will never forget the first-ever home night game in Cal Lutheran football history. Trailing 24-0 at the half No. 20 Cal Lutheran completed its comeback with 16 seconds left to defeat No. 13 Redlands, 28-24.
Box Score: CLU 28, UR 24 - F
Cal Lutheran climbed back to within a 24-21 deficit with just over three minutes left in regulation. Redlands elected to punt facing fourth-and-short near midfield and pinned the Kingsmen down at their own two-yard line.
"We were hoping to kick a field goal to tie, but thinking touchdown to win it," said Head Coach Ben McEnroe.
Quarterback Jake Laudenslayer put his coach's thoughts into action as he engineered a 10-play, 98-yard drive. He capped it off by plunging in from one yard out in the final seconds to give Cal Lutheran a four-point lead with only seconds remaining.
"I have never seen anything like that," said McEnroe. "You learn so many life lessons in this game; today they learned you keep fighting as long as you have a chance. That's what we built this program on and it's great to see it come to fruition."
Most of the CLU contingent was resigned to the fact that Redlands dominated the first quarter rushing for 167 yards and two touchdowns. CLU trailed 17-0 after one frame when the Bulldogs conducted a nine-play, 80-yard drive and scored just 10 seconds before halftime to score a morale busting touchdown and take a 24-0 lead.
"We were embarrassed at our first half performance," said McEnroe. "We told them 'you are going to lose our (SCIAC) championship trophy if we don't start focusing on one play at a time.'"
After some stringent second half defense and 28 unanswered points on offense, Cal Lutheran can rest easy for at least another week.
UR quarterback Chad Hurst had 10 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown on the ground to go along with 97 yards and a passing touchdown in the first half alone. The CLU defense then held Redlands to only 67 total offensive yards in the second half forcing five punts, a missed field goal and a final play interception by Luis Villavicencio in the end zone to preserve a victory.
CLU opened the second half converting a pair of third downs on its first drive en route to its first points courtesy of a Daniel Mosier touchdown run. Each of Cal Lutheran's four second half touchdown drives were nine plays or more and 61 yards or longer.
Cal Lutheran went to a hurry-up, aerial attack more frequently after rushing for negative yardage in the first half. Laudenslayer finished 25-of-42 for 313 yards and found Eric Rogers for both passing touchdowns.
"We put the game in (Laudenslayer's) hands. We wanted to be more balanced but then we had to rely on him."
He threw for over 200 yards in the second half, but on the final drive a 26-yard run down to the nine yard line and his final rush attempt of the game were key plays in the game-winning possession. Laudenslayer found nine different targets, including himself, led by Rogers who finished with six catches for 120 yards.
Cal Lutheran (2-1, 1-0 SCIAC) will host Whittier (1-2, 0-1 SCIAC) on Saturday, Oct. 8 at 1 p.m.

It's still Mercilus in one but Brockers goes just one pick before at #18 to the Chargers. Coples is long gone at #12 to Seattle and DeCastro never gets by the Cowboys at #14. Looks like we can begin a poll as to who likes Brockers over Mercilus or vice versa. Either way it comes out we get ourselves a good ball player.
Mock Draft 7.0
The draft starts at pick four, which direction do the Browns go? Wes Bunting
April 18, 2012 Share.
17. Cincinnati Bengals: Alabama CB Dre Kirkpatrick
Kirkpatrick adds a physical element to the Bengals secondary. He’s got the ability to press off the line, make plays in zone and consistently tackle the ball carrier. Plus, he has the size to handle some of the bigger wideouts in the AFC North.
18. San Diego Chargers: LSU DT Michael Brockers
Brockers is as talented as any defensive lineman in the draft and is capable of maturing into a real game changer up front. He’s got the ability to play all over the Chargers defensive line early and offers them a lot of versatility in their 34 front.
19. Chicago Bears: Illinois DE Whitney Mercilus
The Bears love to go defense in round one and getting a talent like Mercilus in the middle of the first has to be considered a steal. There are some rough spots to his game, but he adds another pass rushing threat to the Bears defense on third down..
ICONMartin could be a first round surprise.ICONMartin could be a first round surprise.: Oklahoma State QB Brandon Weeden
If the Browns are unable to get their QB in the top ten, don’t be shocked to see them take their second pick in round one and nab their QB of the future.: Wisconsin OL Peter Konz
Konz has the ability to play both center and guard at the next level and gives the Steelers a real upgrade inside.
25. Denver Broncos: Broncos a guy they can win with inside.
26. Houston Texans: Baylor WR Kendall Wright
Wright might be the draft’s top vertical threat and has the ability to open up a lot of options for the Texans offense down the field..
28. Green Bay Packers: Boise State LB Shea McClellin
He’s got the ability to play both inside and out for the Packers and brings the kind of motor, intensity and relentless as a pass rusher they are looking for.
29. Baltimore Ravens: Alabama ILB Dont’a Hightower
Hightower is a “plus” run defender who can be used as a blitzer inside or a pass rusher off the edge. Is the kind of talent the Ravens could use inside as an eventual replacement for Ray Lewis..
32. New York Giants: South Carolina CB Stephon Gilmore
Getting a tall, physical defensive back who displays a natural feel in zone and can go get the football makes some sense for the Giants at the back end of round one.

His Mother, whom I loved to distraction, began her schizophrenic descent to hell when he was nine months old. She left our lives and the country when Noah was three, or there abouts.
Since then, I’ve had lovers, many lovers. My body has exulted, my mind has been seduced, but my heart keeps to itself.
“Dad, is she your girlfriend?”
“It’s our first date, Noah.”
“Maybe she’ll become your girlfriend like if it goes well?”
“Maybe.”
I already know it’s highly unlikely. It may be a roll or two or three, knotted in her bedsheets or mine. It may be wonderful sex ending in a friendship. But nothing more. Or less.
“You look really good, dad, in that shirt. That’s the one I like found, right?”
“Yup.”
“I have good taste, huhn?”
“Sure do.”
Noah and I actually went out shopping for a pair of pants and shirt…for me. Every piece of clothing I own is older than my son, so I was due. Noah mixed and matched and brought me items while I tried them in the changing booth. The three salesladies were totally taken with him.
As I go down the stairs, heading for my date, I hear Noah whispering to his babysitter.
“Dad has a date, and a new shirt…”
I don’t hear the rest.
Since I’ve been single with child , women have come into my life and moved on…generally to other men with whom they begin building something lasting.
Several of them are now affianced.
One of those ladies made it a point of showing me the rock on her finger before she invited me in for a last escapade one morning before she moved in with her future husband. In the quiet, beautiful moments after, as her breath blew eddies across the hair on my chest, she told me he was the love of her life. She hoped to have a kid, as beautiful as Noah. I told her she would be a wonderful mom. In fact, in the brief months of our frequentation she was auditioning for precisely that role in my life. But having a child actually spring from her loins became her true wish. As I left her apartment for the last time, she thanked me for making her realize what she really wanted.
I’m good at that… fertilizing other’s arid soils with intent and desire. Other’s reap the fruit.
Three of my recent lovers have become pregnant. No, no, not from me. I’m the way station, the hub-airport that connects to the desired destination. Of course, like any port I collect some of their riches before they move on.
The other day, I met one of these ladies, as Noah and I strolled down the street. She was with her husband and 9 month baby. If I was still Catholic I would have said they looked like the Holy Family, but since I’m now lapsed into paganism, I say nothing.
They seemed happy. She introduced me to the father, as a dear friend. When she and I kissed each other’s cheeks her smell overwhelmed me with visions of her nakedness. She was wonderfully fleshy and moist. And strangely sad, afterwards.
As they walked away, Noah pulled my hand.
“Dad, wasn’t she like your girlfriend?”
“Yeah, a couple of years ago.”
“Does it like make you feel bad that she like has a baby and a guy like that she married?”
“No, not all.”
Well, perhaps a little.
“They looked happy, didn’t they?”
“I guess so, yeah, dad.”
I like to think I contributed to her blooming, in an odd, deflected way.
Now, as I head to my “date” in my new shirt, I wonder how much I still feel like “contributing”.

For us, France was the goal, a tall order for only seven days. From the Mediteranean Riviera in the South to the Atlantic coast in the West and mountains in the East, there's more than enough to fill itineraries of any length.
There was but one place for us to begin, the City of Lights, Paris. Brimming with culture, art and cuisine, the capital city could keep visitors busy for weeks simply touring museums and art galleries. Must see sites including the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triumph, Cathedral of Notre Dame of Paris and the Louvre are always packed through June and July.
Worthy of the wait, however, is a trip to the top of the Eiffel Tower as the sun sets, arriving at the pinnacle far a dazzling light show of a twinkling cityscape. If the opportunity presents itself don't forget that all state run museums, including the Louvre, are free to the public on the first Sunday of every month; but get in line early to avoid spending all day in queue.
A sprawling city, Paris boasts an effective and easy to use public transportation system dominated by an extensive subway system aided by a suburban rail network reaching outlying neighborhoods. Several international rail stations lie on each side of the city dispatching trains in every direction. In less than an hour, train travelers can arrive in Reims, capital of the famed Champagne region.
Surrounded by vineyards in villages throughout the region, the city of Reims is home to several Champagne houses and cellars, many within walking distance of city center and others just a short drive by private car. Large and small producers can be found including headquarters of the world renowned G.H. Mumm.
Known locally as Champagne 'caves,' chalk lined wine cellars rest in the cool darkness of tunnels more than 40 feet below ground. The largest of Reims' producers, Mumm houses 25 million bottles of champagne dating back to the 1860s in an astonishing 16 miles of subterranean cellars. Each tour ends with a tasting of the local product.
Between tours and tasting, be sure to stop by the hidden treasure of General Dwight Eisenhower's 'war room' and home to the German capitulation signing. Tucked away in a side street with little signage and even less commercial marketing, this museum tells how Eisenhower's headquarters came to be the site of Germany's unconditional surrender. Outer rooms have been transformed into exhibits displaying war relics and showing Reims' role in the war while the war room remains untouched from the day it came into fame. Maps wallpaper the room marking troop advancements throughout Europe while smaller charts kept the war cabinet up to date on movement in the Pacific theater.
Trains from Reims traveling west will almost always pass through Paris but be prepared for a complicated connection. With several stations surrounding the city, to go from east to west through Paris, travelers must walk to the subway and grab a ride toward another train station before finding their connection.
Once on the right track, a few hours westward brings us closer to the Atlantic into the region of Normandy. A beautiful land flourishing in agriculture, Normandy offers a respite from busy cities; but for American citizens and others from Allied nations, Normandy serves as a somber pilgrimage to honor the sacrifices of an entire generation.
June 6, 1944 came to be known as D-Day, a gloomy morning coming on the heels of a raging storm saw nearly 1,000 warships descend upon a 30-mile stretch of beach for a foothold in Hitler's Atlantic Wall. A museum in Caen offers a historical look at war torn Europe along with a special exhibit dedicated to the largest invasion force in history.
Public transportation to the landing beaches is nearly non-existent with buses reaching only one beachhead. A guided tour, easily arranged by the local tourist information office, provides guests with a detailed account of the historic battle against a tyrannical empire. The heroic acts of Allied invasion forces resulted in the successful capture of German occupied territory at the cost of nearly 10,000 Allied casualties.
A journey to the American Cemetery at Normandy is a poignant reminder of freedom's staggering price tag. On 172 acres, the graves of 9,387 American soldiers lie atop a bluff in sight of the beaches they once fought for. Soldiers lost in combat throughout the European campaign rest on this site, most of who were involved in the landing operation. Among the slain are three recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor, four women and 307 unknowns.
Interred in the peace and serenity of this site are residents of all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Side-by-side can be found one father and son and 33 pairs of brothers. To experience the magnitude of this memorial, wandering the grounds and overlooking the white headstones, is a moving testament inspiring gratitude for sacrifices made by others.
Matt Shinall is the business reporter for The Daily Tribune News.

SAN Road in Liberty Station, trying to write her "mildly audacious Momentum" blog. She said she had writer's block and so instead of trying to force the words, she just started observing the customers coming into the coffee shop.
Among the typical Starbucks clientele ordering their lattes, three people stood out to Maloney, she said. The first man was homeless and asked to put up his artwork. The second person was a man who was very upset over his drink that was made incorrectly. The third person was a teenage boy looking for a job.
"Time after time, Gieselle handled the situations with absolute grace. She never showed any emotion, she was just being pleasant and friendly. She also kept in mind all her other customers," said Maloney. "I actually had this eureka moment as I was writing, or trying to write and I was staring at my screen and cursor and I said 'this is it.'"
Maloney coaches people and businesses about how to be a leader and instantly recognized that Gaines was a leader in her store.
"She had no idea I was there, that's the kind of leader she is," Maloney said.
Maloney went up to Gaines and told her she was going to write her blog about Gaines' leadership. Several days later, Gaines received a call at her Starbucks store.
"We were outside setting up little samples when one of my partners, Brent, came out and had this look on his face. His eyes were really wide and he said 'The CEO is on the phone.'" Gaines said. "I didn't believe it, so I took the phone and said 'Hi thank you for holding, this is Gieselle. How can I help you?' And he said, 'Gieselle, Howard Schultz.'"
"My eyes popped out and I just said 'good morning,'" Gaines explained.
Gaines said Schultz called just to thank her for her leadership and invite her to Houston for the company's annual conference where she would be honored for her performance.
"I have a greater responsibility but I'm not going to change who I am, and I'm not going to change how I approach my business. If anything I'll do it better than I did yesterday," she said.
"It's all about human connection. It's about making an impact. We make a promise of a perfectly made drink and that's what we strive to be--consistent, but it's about more than that," she said.
As for Maloney, whose blog started it all, "when I found out Howard Schultz had read my blog, I felt like I died and gone to heaven. He is the epitome of a good leader."

.
The following highlight some of the changes:
- The prior guidelines required that no more than 25% of the total floor area of the condominium be commercial, yet allowed exceptions for those with up to 35% of commercial space. FHA will now consider exceptions for condominiums that have up to 50% of commercial space upon providing substantial documentation, good cause, and proof that the condominium remains “primarily residential, homogenous with residential use and is free of adverse conditions to the occupants.”
- The new guidelines increase the number of units that one investor/entity can own, at the time the application is submitted, from 10% to 50%, as long as 50% of the total number of units in the condominium have been conveyed or are under a bona fide contract for purchase to an owner-occupant.
- Previously, a condominium would not be able to obtain FHA approval if more than 15% of all of the units were more than thirty days in arrears on their assessments. The new guidelines keep the 15% cap but increase the length of time in arrears to 60 days. However, while prior guidelines allowed exceptions if the delinquency rate was more than 15%, but less than 20%, the new guidelines provide that no exceptions will be granted.
- Prior guidelines required management companies to have their own Fidelity Bond/Insurance naming the association as an obligee. However, now the management company can have their own insurance or the association can have a policy specifically naming the management company as an agent or insured, or that the association’s policy have a “Covered Employee” endorsement covering management personnel.
- The new guidelines revise the Project Certification document to slightly relax the degree of guarantee confirmed by the person or entity applying for condominium approval.

Brown's website posted the news release Tuesday with no further details, except the time of the event and its location. The event takes place at 10:30 a.m. at Grove Community Church, 19900 Grove Community Drive, Riverside.
Thousands of people are expected in Riverside for the service at Grove Community Church.
"It's a huge planning event whenever you have a police service because we know that law enforcement agencies from around the state and even across the nation are going to attend," said Riverside police Lt. Guy Toussaint.
Before fugitive Christopher Dorner was barricaded inside of a cabin on late Tuesday that caught fire, police said they had developed a security plan that includes assistance from other law enforcement agencies. Toussaint did not elaborate on the plan because police don't want to jeopardize the safety of people attending the funeral.
But he did say officers will be stationed at multiple locations to ensure safety.

Blazing the Fly Rod Crosby Trail underway
MAD.
About 20 people showed up over the course of two days and built approximately two miles of trail along the western bank of the Orbeton Stream. Volunteers cut a corridor for the trail, built two switchbacks up a
steep hill and constructed a section of bog bridging (elevated cedar planks to keep hikers out of the mud) through an especially wet area.
This was chosen as the first piece of the trail to be built because it will both ease traffic on a heavily used multi-use trail on the other side of the river and, once completed, allows for a nice loop option utilizing both trails.
Local businesses chipped in to help the volunteers. On the 28th, Edmunds Market generously provided burgers, hotdogs and rolls for a cook out at the end of the day. The Carrabassett Coffee Company provided free coffee and a percolator to get everybody going first thing in the morning. David and Virginia Robie, owners of the Star Barn Bed and Breakfast provided the grill and came out to do some trail work.
Organizers would like to thank everyone who came for a great couple of days of trail work and to Edmunds Market and the Carrabassett Coffee Company for supporting construction of the Fly Rod Crosby Trail.
There will be another work day Saturday, Oct. 2 and organizers are asking people to meet at the Reeds Mills Road bridge across the Orbeton Stream in Madrid TWP at 10 a.m. Please contact Ben Godsoe with
the Maine Conservation Corps at 578-0306 for more information.

Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Police Chief Charlie Beck announced today that officials have yet to decide if anyone will receive the $1 million reward offered for the capture of murder suspect Christopher Jordan Dorner.
Dorner is dead after a Tuesday firefight with law enforcement officers. Dorner barricaded himself inside a cabin in the Angelus Oaks area of the San Bernardino Mountains while on the run from law enforcement. The cabin caught fire after SWAT deputies fired pyrotechnic tear gas canisters into the building after taking fire from the cabin. A single gunshot was heard from inside the building after the fire ignited.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department announced today Dorner's death has been confirmed by forensic dental examination.
Dorner was hiding inside a Big Bear Lake condominium Tuesday when he tied up Karen and Jim Reynolds and stole their vehicle. The stolen vehicle report led law enforcement's final pursuit of Dorner.
"Now that the search for Christopher Dorner appears to have concluded, we are addressing the issue of the $1 million reward," Villaraigosa and Beck said in a joint statement. ."
Dorner is
At the time of the pursuit, he was wanted on suspicion of the murders of Riverside Police officer Michael Crain and Irvine couple Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence.

As David Panian, news editor for Michigan's Daily Telegram, put it: "It just seemed like you couldn't turn on the radio without hearing one of her songs."
The Grammy Awards in February were the de-facto crowning of
Accepting the album of the year award, a teary Adele exclaimed: "Mum, girl did good!" The emotional, sniffling singer endeared many viewers to her when she copped in her acceptance speech to having "a bit of snot."
"This record is inspired by something that is really normal and everyone's been through it: just a rubbish relationship," said Adele.
But her luck in love has since turned, thanks to her boyfriend Simon Konecki. In an interview with Vogue magazine, Adele said she was through with breakup records and done being "a bitter witch." When Adele announced in June that she was having a baby with Konecki, her website promptly crashed under the heavy traffic. Their son was born in October.
With such an avalanche of success and now a mother of a newborn son, Adele has understandably taken a step out of the spotlight. One notable exception was recording the opening credits theme song to "Skyfall." The song was recorded
"There was an overwhelming embrace of Adele and her music," said Joe Butkiewicz, executive editor of the Times Leader in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. "And that was never more evident to me than when I heard teenagers express their enthusiastic expectations for the new James Bond movie because Adele performed the theme song."
The song recently received a Golden Globe nomination. No Bond theme has ever won the best original song Oscar, but given Adele's awards success thus far, it wouldn't be a stretch to think she has a chance of changing that. The tune is among the 75 short-listed songs in the Academy Awards category.

WASHINGTON — Since faring poorly among Latino voters at the polls in November, the GOP has embraced the issue of immigration reform with a new urgency.
In reality, though, the Republican disconnect with Hispanics is about much more than immigration.
For starters, while immigration is an oft-covered topic, it’s not the top issue on Latino voters’ priority list. In a pre-election Pew Hispanic Center survey released last fall, a majority of Hispanic voters said education, health care and jobs/the economy were “extremely important” to them. But only 34 percent said the same about immigration.
Now, this doesn’t mean that from a political standpoint, Republicans should not focus their energy on immigration reform (more on that in a moment). What it does mean is that if they want to improve their standing among Latino voters, they also need to address other fiscal and social issues in a way that the growing Hispanic share of the electorate can agree with.
That’s easier said than done. Why? Because there is a significant gap between some pillars of the Republican platform and the over-arching worldview of Hispanics.
Take the call for limited government, a cornerstone of the GOP’s political message. In a Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation survey taken last summer, 67 percent of Hispanics said they favor a “larger federal government with many services” over a “smaller federal government with fewer services.” Republicans expressed a dramatically different viewpoint in the poll, with 80 percent saying they prefer a “smaller federal government with fewer services.”
What about another familiar GOP talking point: lowering federal spending and the deficit? In the same poll, 68 percent of Hispanics said it is more important to “increase federal spending to try to create jobs and improve the economy” than to avoid “a big increase in the federal deficit.” Seventy-three percent of Republicans said the latter is more important.
Indeed, these are philosophical disagreements the GOP must confront. But none of this is to say Republicans shouldn’t also help spearhead an immigration reform effort. If they want to revamp their image among Hispanics, Republicans can’t afford to stand on the sidelines.
According to 2012 exit poll data, nearly eight in 10 Hispanic voters said they support a path to legal status for for most illegal immigrants working in the country, something a bipartisan Senate working group proposed on Monday. And it’s not just Hispanic voters Republicans risk further alienating; the exit polls also show a majority of all voters (65 percent) said they support a path to legal status.
In 2012, the Hispanic share of the electorate went up, while the GOP presidential nominee’s share of their vote dropped, compared to 2008. That should come as troubling news to a party that is licking multiple wounds after a disappointing cycle.
But even as the GOP turns over a new leaf on immigration reform, it is still playing catch-up with Democrats. Already, President Obama has used the power of executive fiat to prevent the deportation of certain young illegal immigrants. By comparison, Romney, the GOP’s 2012 standard-bearer, adopted a hard-line posture on immigration and border security in the primary that cost him dearly in the general election.
Embracing immigration reform is one step the GOP can take toward improving its performance among Latino voters in future elections. But it’s not even close to a cure-all.

When the Colorado volleyball team lost senior team leader Kerra Schroeder to a season-ending knee injury on Aug. 25, the Buffs knew they didn't have one player capable of filling those shoes.
"We had a very candid team meeting after the first weekend and we decided that this has to be a full team effort," CU head coach Liz Kritza said.
So far, the Buffs have managed to get that effort. On Saturday, the Buffs defeated Cal State-Bakersfield and Norfolk State in the Air Force/Colorado Invitational at Coors Events Center.
After a five-set battle with CSU-Bakersfield, the Buffs swept Norfolk State.
CU finished non-conference play with a 10-2 record, its best start since 1998 (17-2 start).
Nikki Lindow and Neira Ortiz Ruiz have been particularly important for CU. Lindow has become more of an on-court leader in Schroeder's absence, while Ortiz Ruiz is becoming quite a force on offense. On Saturday, that duo combined for 47 kills and 16 block assists.
Lindow played like a leader should, posting 25 kills and 13 block assists.
"Nikki Lindow did step up (after Schroeder's injury)," Kritza said. "She's filling a natural leadership role and she should. She has the most playing experience of anybody on the floor. She's responding very well."
So is Ortiz Ruiz. Prior to this week, she had just two career games with at least 10 kills and a career-high of 11. She posted 14 kills in Thursday's win at Air Force, followed it up with 12 against CSU-Bakersfield and then 10 against Norfolk State. She's the only player on the team this year with three consecutive double-digit kill games.
"I'm not Kerra. Kerra is great," Ortiz Ruiz said. "But, yeah, the team needs players to work. I'm willing to do that and I'm willing to bust my guts in practice to help us win and look good."
Lindow has been quite impressed with the emergence of Ortiz Ruiz, saying the team has "full confidence in her."
Throw in the calming presence of reserves of Michelle Miller and Ana Pantovic off the bench, and the Buffs are doing what they can to replace everything Schroeder brought to the court. It has shown in the results, as CU has won six in a row while building team cohesiveness.
They needed that cohesiveness on Saturday to get past scrappy CSU-Bakersfield and Norfolk State.
"It's pretty nice," Ortiz Ruiz said of the two wins. "I think we did a really good job in getting into and being together. The two games (Saturday) were opportunities for us to see we can be together and be a team."
Against CSU-Bakersfield (2-9), the Buffs had to battle more than expected before taking out the Roadrunners 25-19, 23-25, 19-25, 25-13, 15-13.
After falling behind 2-1, the Buffs played their best in the final two sets to pull out the win. Lindow had 14 kills and nine block assists to lead the Buffs. Ortiz Ruiz had 12 kills and Alexis Austin and Kelsey English added 11 each. Nicole Edelman had 41 assists for the Buffs.
"I think that for a team that's comprised of the youth that we have, being able to pull out five-set wins is really important," Kritza said. "It kind of shows what kind of character we have, what kind of leadership we have. When players struggle, they're going to have to be able to work out of those doldrums. They've got to be able to bring themselves back up. That's what that five-set match did; it allowed players to have some confidence."
CU carried that confidence into the second match, a 25-16, 25-22, 25-16 victory against Norfolk State. The Buffs held the lead the entire first and third sets against the Spartans (2-11). After falling behind 6-0 in the second set, the Buffs rolled in that one, too.
Lindow and Ortiz Ruiz dominated play against the Spartans, combined for 21 kills and only two errors in 35 attack chances (a remarkable .543 clip).
"Our goal was to stay consistent and not err a lot," Lindow after the Norfolk State match. "The passing was excellent, (Edelman's) sets were great and we were hitting high, hitting our spots. It was nice to see the efficiency go up a lot more. We definitely need to continue that in practice the rest of this week."
Next up for the Buffs is Pac-12 Conference play. CU will open the conference slate on Wednesday with a home match against Utah. The game is slated for 8 p.m. and will be televised on the Pac-12 Mountain regional network.
Notable
CU opened this tournament with a five-set win at Air Force on Thursday. ... CU has its first 10-win season since 2008 (13-16). ... CU's six-game win streak is its longest since a 6-0 start to the 2008 season. ... CSU-Bakersfield dropped to 1-13-1 all-time against the Pac-12, including 0-3 season. The Roadrunners were going for their first win against a Pac-12 team since beating Arizona in 1991. ... CU had never faced either team before Saturday.

We’ve got major hoop dreams — but not the b-ball kind (we’re way too short and old for that).
We’re talking hula hoops, specifically those being whirled by Pilates instructor Jen Bleier for her new Hoopilates classes in New York.
In this video, Bleier teaches some basic moves you can do from anywhere — and, yes, you will break a sweat.
If you think you can’t get a hoop up to save your life — think again. Bleier uses a handcrafted version by Brooklyn-based Circle Candy that’s heavier and wider than the standard — so it’s much easier to maneuver. Plus, you get a better workout.
Making it a slam dunk.
To buy a Circle Candy hula hoop, go to circlecandy.com. For more information about Hoopilates, go to hoopilatesnyc.com.

Five Things to Do When Your Mate Can't Qualify For a Mortgage
byJan 30th 2011 10:05AM
What's a couple to do when one partner can't qualify for the mortgage? Take these five steps:1. No Blame, But Take Action!
It's an easy trap to fall into, the credit-worthy partner becoming upset that their dream home or the chance to save thousands might slip away through no fault of their own. In this way, a mortgage glitch can easily snowball into blame-gaming, name-calling, finger-pointing relationship awfulness. If you get word that your mate can't qualify for the loan you seek, take a deep breath and discuss the situation. Stay action-oriented and plan your approach to overcoming this obstacle to keep the conversation constructive, and avoid resentment and hurt.
2. Diagnose and Fix on the Quick
Consult with your mortgage broker about what, specifically, is stopping your partner from being able to get the loan, and whether the issue is fix-able. If the issue is that your mate has been out of work for 20 of the last 24 months, you might not be able to do much to remedy that particular issue besides offering an explanation to the lender. However, if the issue is that her credit score is 15 points below where it needs to be, your mortgage pro can likely offer some quick fixes (e.g., pay these two bills down by $X, then have your mortgage broker or banker do a 72-hour rapid rescore) to get the whole loan process back on track within a week's time.
3. Qualify On Your Own
It never hurts to get a basic understanding of your solo purchasing power; you might find that you are able to qualify for the home on your own. If you go this route, and you want the home to be jointly owned, most lenders will now allow a non-borrower (i.e., someone who didn't go on the loan) to be added to the property's title at closing. But talk with a local real estate, family law or estate planning attorney before you add your mate to title; if you break up, you could be stuck with 100% of the loan obligations, and only half of the rights to the property.
4. Get a Co-Borrower
Many lenders will allow a relative to be a "non-occupant co-borrower," newfangled lingo for the old-fashioned co-signer. If you've encountered an opportunity that truly is too good to pass up, you might be able to qualify -- as a couple or on your own -- to buy with the help of your mom, dad or dear Aunt Gertie. Check with your loan broker or banker.
5. Wait and See
In many real estate markets, home values are headed downward. This less-than-fabulous news for sellers is actually welcome news for home buyers, who may have many months or even a number of years to take advantage of today's affordability by even the most optimistic of estimates. No need to rush into this major commitment, for which your finances may not quite be sufficiently mature.
If your sweetie can't get a loan right now, get a clear set of action steps from your mortgage professional including the things that need to happen for him or her to pass mortgage muster. Need to be on the job longer? Got lots of credit rehab to do? Need to boost that income? All doable, with time. Luckily, you've got some. So, to steal a phrase from our friends across the pond, "keep calm and carry on."

6 Smart Moves to Boost Your Credit Score
Even if you're not planning on applying for a mortgage or credit card anytime soon, you need a good credit score. Here are some lesser-known strategies to help boost yours.. Consider your credit card debt, for example..
Americans are getting more educated about credit scores, and younger people are the most well-versed of all. But that doesn't mean there aren't some gaps in their knowledge. So what should you do to keep on top of your credit? Here are a few free tips.
The recession and its hangover have turned our bill-paying habits upside down. Cash-strapped Americans are paying off their car loans before they pay credit card bills and make mortgage payments, a TransUnion study finds.
It's not just politics that defines the differences between Republican-leaning "red states" and Democrat-leaning "blue states" -- and some of those differences may surprise you. For example, when it comes to credit scores, blue states are where the smart money is.

This morning started out nice and early. Perhaps a little too early? We were on the subway by 7:15am, en route to meet our running partners in Central Park!
This was my first time running in Central Park, and it was absolutely amazing. SO MUCH snow, and it made for such a gorgeous backdrop.
Laura, Casey, and I met up with Theodora and Ashley for our run. I met both girls back in Chicago in the fall, and this was such a fun way to catch up with them while enjoying a run.
There were SO many runners out in Central Park – it was amazing! And holy hills, I was NOT expecting the loop to be so difficult. We ended up just sticking with the six mile loop, and then walked the 2 miles back to our hotel to make it an even eight. One of the best parts of blogging for me is that I truly feel like I have friends all over the country. Many thanks to Ashley and Theodora for a fabulous run – and one I definitely wouldn’t have done if I didn’t have running buddies to get me out of bed.
After we showered and got ready, we went off in search of the perfect NYC bagels. We found them at Ess-a-Bagel!
My friend Casey had told me they had tofu cream cheese, which sounded to good to be true. Thankfully, she was correct!
I got a giant crusty pumpernickel raisin bagel with raisin walnut cream cheese.
Exactly what I hoped it would be. I would like to eat about ten more of these.
After breakfast, we headed south on foot to explore…
We made our way to the Union Square Greenmarket – a farmer’s market I had heard was a good spot to check out.
The market was really great! So many vendors for this time of year, and some selling some really interesting things.
The weather may be a bit cold, but the snow just makes everything soooo much more beautiful.
I’m really glad we stopped by the market – very cool. I can only imagine what it’s like in the summer!
Lunch was kind of a FAIL. The place we were planning to go to (Dirt Candy) turned out to only be open for dinner – WHOOPS. So we improvied and ended up at a new vegetarian spot called Purume. The food was kind of meh. It was all nice and fresh, but not enough salt or flavor.
Lots and lots of steamed veggies, and some scary seaweed that I didn’t end up eating – too fishy.
We made up for lunch by finishing out our afternoon at Tu-Lu’s Gluten Free Bakery.
Laura and I eat got a sampler of 3 mini cupcakes – they were so good!
And Laura let me snag a few bites of her mint chocolate roulade cake. Hard to believe it was all gluten-free!
Mini cupcake of the day – chocolate with pistachio frosting. Heaven.
There may or may not have been a to-go box involved…
The boots I brought with me for the trip gave me horrific blisters yesterday, so I bought a new emergency pair of rubber boots on today’s outing. Definitely money well spent – there is slush and snow everywhere!!
I couldn’t put my blistering boots back on this morning, and sadly I think my ballet flats may have walked their last journey. Looking a little sad from all the slush.
Now we are back at the hotel getting ready for our evening adventures. Pure and Radio City tonight!

The article starts out saying that "Unlike gasoline, hydrogen isn’t an energy source — it’s an energy carrier, like a battery."
Now that is nonsense, in that gasoline is not an energy source either. We have to pump or dig it out of the ground, as oil or coal. Then we have to invest serious amounts of energy to make gasoline. And yes you can make gasoline from coal.
Like hydrogen, oil and gas and coal are energy sinks.

Hi earthling,
I think the key difference that the insiders consider is that gasoline derived from crude has about a 10 percent energy overhead getting it out of the ground and into your tank. (That is one of the reasons that 'peak oil' is scary, as it starts bloating that overhead.) On the other hand, hydrogen is so energy expensive, it is essentially break even on whatever you start with. Hence, the battery analogy. I'm not sure whether it is worse than ethanol, but in any case, it doesn't solve anything, except maybe displacing pollution to unpopulated areas.
Jet fuel from coal is my favorite solution. We have centuries of the stuff and the plants can be put almost anywhere near the (remote) coal fields.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -- Whenever the Marshall football team prepares to play a team in Texas, the players know the question that's coming. They've heard it before. It's not their favorite, but it's one they must endure.
Why can't the Thundering Herd win in that state?
"I don't hate it," defensive end Jeremiah Taylor said about the question with a forgiving smile, "but it gets tiring."
The Herd is winless in eight tries in Texas. It doesn't subscribe to curses or hexes in attempting to explain the slump, but the players are determined to snap the streak.
Their next chance comes Saturday at Rice. Kickoff is 3:30 p.m. and the Herd's Conference USA opener will be broadcast on CSS and WCHS.
Marshall's Lone Star State losing streak began in 2004, when the Herd lost the Fort Worth Bowl, 32-14, to Cincinnati. Since then, Marshall's dropped games to UTEP in 2005 and 2009, Southern Methodist in 2006 and 2010, Houston in 2007 and 2011 and Rice in 2008.
Sometimes the Herd has been close, like its 35-28 loss to Houston in 2007.
Sometimes it hasn't been so close, like last season's 63-28 loss to Houston or the 31-3 loss to UTEP in 2005.
Sixth-year guard John Bruhin can't pinpoint why Marshall's fortunes have gone so sour in Texas. It's just that they have.
"I can't really put my finger on it," he said. "Just going down there is a long trip. There maybe the lag time over it, but that's no excuse."

UPDATED:.
WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama was preparing to present a limited fiscal proposal to congressional leaders at a White House meeting Friday, a make-or-break moment for negotiations to avoid across-the-board tax increases and deep spending cuts at the first of the year.
Lawmakers and White House officials held out a slim hope for a deal before the new year, but it remained unclear whether congressional passage of legislation palatable to both sides was even possible. | » Fiscal cliff likely to trigger filing delays for taxpayers
The Friday afternoon meeting among congressional leaders and the president - their first since Nov. 16 - was likely to center on which income thresholds would face higher tax rates, extending unemployment insurance, and preventing a cut in Medicare payments to doctors, among other issues.
For Obama, the eleventh-hour scramble represented a test of how he would balance strength derived from his re-election against an avowed commitment to compromise in the face of divided government..
Obama called for the meeting as top lawmakers on Thursday.."
Obama and Reid, D-Nev.,.

Drew Wolitarsky surpassed former Taft standout and current St. Louis Rams receiver Steve Smith by catching his 272nd career pass in Canyon's 42-9 rout Friday night of visiting San Luis Obispo (6-5) at Harry Welch Stadium in a Southern Section Northern Division first-round playoff game.
Wolitarsky, a four-year starter for the Cowboys, broke the record with a 6-yard catch from Cade Apsay early in the second quarter.
Wolitarsky broke Smith's career passing yardage mark Oct. 5 in Canyon's win over Golden Valley.
One play after setting the new mark, Wolitarsky caught a 7-yard touchdown pass from Apsay, giving Canyon (8-2-1) a lead it would hold the rest of the game. Wolitarsky finished with nine catches for 128 yards.
San Luis Obispo (6-5) scored the first touchdown on a 17-yard run by Nate Greenelsh with 3:28 left in the first quarter. Greenelsh finished with 106 yards on 10 carries, but that would be the Tigers' only touchdown.
Wolitarsky caught a 65-yard touchdown pass from Apsay 55 seconds later to pull Canyon even, and San Luis Obispo never led again.
Apsay threw three touchdown passes, including a 62-yard strike to Liam Cabrera that made it 21-7. Apsay added two touchdowns on short runs, and finished 13 of 20 for 246 yards and three touchdowns passing. Cabrera had four catches for 118 yards.
Dominic Pennucci closed out the scoring with a 39-yard run late in the third quarter. Pennucci finished with 138 yards on the ground on 14 carries for the

In other Northern Division games:
Atascadero 26, Palmdale 7: Wesley Gitchuway caught an 11-yard pass from Jake Dashnaw to give the top-seeded Falcons (10-1) an early lead, but the absence of Demario Richard -- sidelined with a leg injury -- was too much for Palmdale to overcome.
Atascadero (5-6) scored 19 second-half points, highlighted by Izaiah Cooks' 66-yard kickoff return that led to an Ethan Hicks' 8-yard touchdown run. Hicks rushed for 92 yards and two scores and Dashnaw passed for 163 yards for the Falcons.
-- John Facey
Hart 48, Arroyo Grande 6: After stopping the Eagles on a three-and-out, Hart quarterback Brady White hit running back Connor Wingenroth with a short swing pass and he took it 76 yards down the left sideline for a touchdown.

Quartz Hill retook the lead on Burke's 1-yard run, 21-14. Quartz Hill's Royce Dirden set up another score with the first of his two interceptions. The Rebels stretched the lead to 24-14 with Rey Rodriguez's 22-yard field goal.
Quartz Hill put the game away on the next play. With 454 remaining, Quartz Hill's Devin Brooks fielded Redondo's onside kick, broke through the Redondo line and returned it 44 yards for a touchdown. Burke intercepted Faecher's pass on the next series and the Rebels had broken a string of three consecutive first-round playoff exits.
Dirden added a 31-yard touchdown run in the game's final minutes.
-- John Purcell
Palos Verdes 49, Antelope Valley 13: Cameron French had 13 carries for 97 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for 29 yards, but little else went right for the Antelopes (7-4) at West Torrance High.

Alegria finished 10 of 20 for 97 yards and a touchdown for Antelope Valley.
-- Dave Thorpe
Mira Costa 35, Highland 21: Highland lost quarterback Donte Ross on its sixth play from scrimmage. Using a mixture of quarterbacks and big plays after Donte Ross went out with a knee injury in the first quarter, Highland kept the pressure on before bowing to Mira Costa.

NEW YORK (WPIX)—Challenged with three hours to hit three great events, PIX11 News reporter Sharon Carpenter went to work looking for entertaining events happening in the Big Apple.
Her first destination: The Winter Garden at the World Financial Center for "Range Rover Evoque Live," an interactive global music event headlined by chart-topping performer Cee Lo Green. Solange Knowles kicked the event off as the opening DJ and Vanessa Minnillo played host.
The concert also celebrated the release of the Range Rover Evoque and there were plenty of cars to check out. In fact guests can touch and feel the brand's first compact, city model, which will remain on site through Friday, May 27th. There will also be a unique interactive Range Rover experience open to the public for the week with videos and images of the numerous models so consumers can get to know the vehicle and even customize one.
Stop two on Sharon's 3 hour tour brought her to Brooklyn's Prospect Park for It's My Park Day. On hand lending a hand, she found PIX11 News' Greg Mocker up to his knees in water. He joined an army of New Yorkers young and old as they removed garbage from the lake.
Then making her way over to the very upscale Le Cirque, the day ended with a fundraiser for the Olevolos Project. The benefit was hosted by Bryan Greenberg, musician and star of HBO's "How to Make It in America." In attendance were Hilarie Burton, Emmanuelle Chriqui and Gina Gershon. Funds raised at the event will help build a library in Tanzania on behalf of the Olevolos Project.
The Olevolos Project was founded in 2007 to create educational opportunities for disadvantaged children from the Olevolos Village in Tanzania, Africa. Their mission is to develop young leaders through formal schooling, tutoring programs, and extra-curricular activities. They aim to improve access and equality to education, they pay for all the expenses for students who are unable to do so.

Obama's American Dream a Mirage

After telling the American people that the 'American Dream' is a mirage created by the US Government, President Obama is living proof that the 'American 'American.

09-20-04 Mercer County dominates Bath Invite
By Lyle Kittle
LIMA -- Mercer County nearly came away with a clean sweep of the 2004 Kewpee/Bath High School Volleyball Classic, with St. Henry winning it all, Parkway taking second, and Coldwater finishing fifth after a final match loss to Old Fort kept the Cavaliers from the number three spot. Befitting a tournament final, the St. Henry/Parkway matchup was one of the better matches of the day. The Redskins captured the title with a 25-19, 25-18 victory. "I was very happy with our play today," Parkway coach Todd Henkle said. "I'm always disappointed when we leave the gym with a loss because I think we're capable of winning each match. It's coming down to our younger players putting it together. We can't miss three or four serves and just give away points. If you do that against St. Henry, well, you can't do that." The Panthers (8-4) played well, but no team would have been a match for the Redskins on this day. With all facets of its game well, St. Henry (8-3) bowled through opening round opponent National Trail, beating the Blazers 25-8, 25-8 in the middle school gym. "It (game against National Trail) was probably our most solid performance of the day," Redskins' coach Lori Schweiterman said. "We didn't have a period when we went mentally blank for five or six points. We maintained our focus throughout the match." While that was happening, Parkway was in the high school gym, shredding Lima Senior, 25-12, 25-10, behind a standout performance at the net by Rebekah Roehm, whose 11 first-match kills combined with several Lima Senior errors to drop the winless Spartans to the loser's bracket. Immediately following that match, Coldwater (6-3) took the floor at the high school to systematically take apart host Bath, 25-11, 25-18, to insure the Cavaliers a spot in the winner's bracket. In the second round, Parkway and Coldwater squared off for what would be the first of at least three encounters this seasons. The Panthers and Cavs meet in the opening round of the New Knoxville Invitational on Saturday and face off in a Midwest Athletic Conference match on September 30. Another possible confrontation could develop in the postseason. With the score tied at 5-5 in the first game, Henkle thought he spotted a hole in the Coldwater armor, and decided to attempt to exploit it. Five consecutive aces from Roehm confirmed the opening, and after winning 25-18, service specialist Diedre Adams took full advantage of it in the second game. Adams went to the service line with Coldwater leading 3-1, and before Coldwater could break through, Parkway led 22-3, with Erika Snyder providing the final point in a 25-6 win that propelled the Panthers to the final. "Serve receive has been our problem all year," said Coldwater coach Jeannette Vaughn. "It's the thing we work on the most, but we're just inconsistent. Getting over that hump is something we have to do. That (21-point run by Parkway) was just a complete mental shutdown on our part. We weren't setting the ball, we weren't hitting it, we weren't doing anything." "I didn't realize we had served that many," Henkle said. "When Diedre gets rolling, she can create a run like that because she has a great floater serve. We look for a spot we can use and then try to attack it as much as possible." St. Henry was on the floor next against Old Fort, with the other spot in the finals on the line. Old Fort had slipped past Northwood in the opening round to move on to the winners' bracket. The Stockaders put up a strong fight, but like National Trail in the opening round, hadn't the weapons to top the Redskins. St. Henry captured the second round battle, 25-21, 25-22, moving to the championship match and sending Old Fort to the consolation contest against Coldwater. During the Parkway/Coldwater match that preceded Old Fort's battle with St. Henry, Stockaders' coach Nancy Hoover wasn't just relaxing and enjoying the match. She was furiously taking notes regarding Parkway's attack on Coldwater's serve-receive weakness. The scouting worked with Old Fort taking third in the tourney with a 25-18, 25-20 win over Coldwater. "The most frustrating thing about this match was that we had control through most of both games," said Vaughn. "We couldn't put the games away when we had the chance. We just struggled all day." That brought about the championship match, which featured the two teams playing at their best throughout the tournament. Just as they had in their first two matches, the Panthers put together a strong all-around performance. As strong as it was, the performance wasn't enough to overcome the Redskins. As big as the play at the net of Lindsay Puthoff, Cami Lefeld, and Kayla Lefeld, and the strong back court play of libero Kylie Elking, the day belonged to the Redskins' setters, Lanee Mikesell and Christa Schwartz. "Lanee and Christa did a great job of distributing the ball," Schweiterman said. "It takes everybody working well. The kills aren't there without the serves, the serves aren't there without the passes, and so on. Our defense played well, and I thought our blocking was really on today." Play after play, Mikesell and Schwartz provided the front line attackers with clean opportunities to hammer shots home, and only the play of the Panthers kept the match from becoming a runaway. Adams, libero Cassie Gutierrez, Erica Yoder, and Erika Snyder on the wings and in the back court, and Roehm and Laura Art in the middle put together a performance that would have overwhelmed many teams. But with St. Henry playing at the level it was, Parkway's standout effort represented little more than a speed bump on the Redskins' road to the title. St. Henry's next action is on the road against Versailles on Tuesday. Coldwater's next match is on Thursday at St. Henry, while Parkway will host New Bremen, also on Thursday.

OLED panels are the next big thing when it comes to TVs and other consumer
electronics from cameras to cell phones. The OLED screen promises more compact
dimensions, less power consumption and brighter images.
Small OLED screens are currently found on some cell phones and LCD TV makers
are looking for larger OLED screens to use in HDTVs. Reuters reports
that Samsung
recently unveiled a 31-inch active-matrix OLED screen. Samsung says it will
have a 31-inch OLED prototype TV on display at CES 2008 in January.
Samsung declined to comment on the commercial availability of TVs using the
31-inch OLED panel stating that the panel being available for retail purchase
would depend on TV makers’ plans. With the very high cost of the Sony XEL-1,
the first
commercially available OLED TV retailing for over $1,700 USD, the price for
a 31-inch Samsung panel equipped OLED TV is a frightening thought for many.
Samsung didn’t comment on potential pricing for TVs using its 31-inch OLED
panel.
Samsung says its new 31-inch OLED panel is only 4.3mm thick and uses less
than half the power required of a typical 32-inch TV. The panel’s lifespan is
35,000 hours, which is the best lifespan of existing AM-OLED panels.
Exactly how many of the panels Samsung will be able to produce is unknown.
Sony is limited to 2,000 of its XEL-1 11-inch OLED TVs per month because of
production limits for the OLED panels.
Toshiba announced in December of 2007 that it would
not be bringing its similarly sized OLED panel to market citing production
cost concerns.

In
our society alcohol is a condoned drug. To many, smoking is a
disgusting habit and smoking
marijuana is and should remain illegal in the U.S.
Many argue that alcohol, on the other hand, is an innocent
indulgence. However, vidence continues to mount about
the dangers
of overindulging in ethanol, the key component in alcohol, and a
substance that is mildly toxic to the human body. A new study
published in
the journal Pediatrics
has been released by the Harvard Medical School in Boston indicating
that teenage drinking dramatically increases a young woman's risk of
developing breast diseases later in life.The study found that
young women who drank a lot – daily or nearly every day -- during
their teenage years were five times as likely to develop a benign
breast disease. Benign breast diseases include conditions like
fibroadenoma, a noncancerous tumor.And that's not all, says
study co-author Catherine Berkey, a biostatistician at Harvard
Medical School. She states,
"Our study may suggest that teen drinking increases the risk for
breast cancer, whether in all females or in those who go on to
develop BBD, but longer-term follow-up is certainly
required."Statisticians and medical professionals are
calling the study significant as it marks the first time that teenage
girls were questioned about their drinking habits and then followed
up years later. Previous studies looking at breast cancer had
relied on researchers questioning adult women about their teenage
drinking habits, which is thought to be a less accurate
technique.The "Growing Up Today Study" enrolled
6,899 women when they were 9 to 15 years old and then followed up
when they were between 16 to 23 years old and 18 to 27 years old.
Of the teens, 147 reported having a breast disease, with 67 cases
having been confirmed by biopsy. The highest correlation was
among teens who drank the most frequently, but even teens who only
drank once or twice a week were 1.5 times more likely than their
peers to suffer from breast disease at a young age.Professor
Berkley comments, "I suspect there may be some small additional
BBD risk for even small amounts of alcohol consumed during
adolescence."As they say, correlation does not equate to
causation. However, researchers also think they have a good
idea how the alcohol is causing increased rates of breast cancer.
While alcohol itself is mildly poisonous to the human body and can be
mildly carcinogenic, the true danger lies in a secondary effect, they
say. Drinking alcohol elevates estrogen levels in growing
teens, which raises the risk of problems with the mammary glands,
which undergo rapid growth during the teenage years.Dr.
Patricia Ganz, director of cancer prevention and control research at
the Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of
California, Los Angeles comments, "For me, this is not a
surprise. I wouldn't scare (teens) and say, 'You are going to
get breast cancer if you drink.' [But] certain forms of BBD [do]
increase the risk of breast cancer. [And] the public health message
is, these young girls shouldn't be drinking anyway."That's
just one more reason, to develop non-toxic
synthehol, it seems.

When it comes to robots on the battlefield, the U.S.
military has a virtual skunkworks of contraptions roaming the ground and air.
In December, DailyTech
reported on the iRobot
PackBot which can detect enemy AK-47 gunfire via its Robot Enhanced
Detection Outpost with Lasers (REDOWL) system. Just a few months ago, iRobot showed off its
SUGV Early (Small Unmanned Ground Vehicle) which weighs in at 30 pounds --
this is compared to 44 pounds for the iRobot PackBot.
The U.S. Army is stepping up things in the battlefield robot
arena dramatically with its new Special Weapons Observation Remote
reconnaissance Direct action System (SWORDS). Three
SWORDS robots were deployed in Iraq and their capabilities put human
soldiers out of harm’s way.
Each robot can carry up to three M249 machines guns which
are controlled by a soldier through a remote terminal. This means that every
shot fired will have to be approved by a human -- the robot will not start
firing without prior authorization.
As of today, no shots have been fired by
the robots on the battlefield.
"Anytime you utilize technology to take a U.S. service
member out of harm’s way, it is worth every penny," said John Saitta of
Smart Business Advisory and Consulting. "These armed robots can be used as
a force multiplier to augment an already significant force in the battle
space."
The Army is pleased with the three SWORDS robots that it now
has, but has requested an additional 80 for combat use. Unfortunately for the
Army, additional funding has not been approved for the purchase.
"As [soldiers] use them and like them, I’ve heard
positive feedback, they want 20 more immediately. It’s a shame we can’t get
them to them," said SWORDS program manager Michael Zecca.

Geni Wren Animal welfare and improving, monitoring and evaluating it are a high priority for the American Meat Institute and its members. But animal welfare, specifically for cattle and swine, is a complex subject not without its own controversies.
At the 2012 AMI Animal Care & Handling Conference this week in Kansas City, Mo., veterinary experts discussed the interface between animal welfare and consumers.
Gail Golab, PhD, DVM, Dipl. ACAW, director of Animal Welfare for the American Veterinary Medical Association, said there are three areas of controversy:
1. Different people evaluate animal welfare differently. “One group thinks about what is going on with the body such as health, reproduction and growth,” she explains. “A second group focuses on the mind and how animals feel, and their pain, suffering, contentment and pleasure.” The third equates welfare with natural and how close does the animal find itself to if it was “free-living” in nature. Golab says we are looking at intersection of these three.
“The reality is that we stray from the center where these three intersect, and we get disconnects,” Golab says. “Physical” people are not as interested in the “natural” or “feelings” aspects of the others. “People gravitate to what has more return on investment for them.”
2. Controversy arises when we don’t proactively recognize and address public concerns. Three main concerns, says Golab, are animals in boxes or restraint, things “cut off” or modified without pain control, and injury/death of animals. “Consumers care about what, why, when and how,” she says.
3. When consumer expectations don’t match reality or perceptions of industry performance. “Animal welfare has two components,” Golab says. “’What is’ which is what we are actually assessing, and ‘what ought to be’, which is social perspective and ethical concerns.”
Golab says what determines social ethic is culture, traditions, science and economics. “People decide what they can and can’t live with.”
Unintended consequences
National Pork Producers Council Chief Veterinarian Liz Wagstrom, DVM, says in the pork industry there is a lot of emphasis on sow housing and gestation housing, but that there is an increasing awareness of animal welfare efforts that the industry has made in the areas of pain management at castration/tail docking, transportation issues and euthanasia.

The Mavericks organization gathered Friday for its annual Thanksgiving feast. The timing was awkward, but not because it was Nov. 2.
Fortunately, there weren’t assigned place settings.
On a Friday in which Chris Kaman returned to practice, the Mavericks waived Eddy Curry, signed Troy Murphy and watched Roddy Beaubois hop off the court near the end of the workout, howling in pain.
If the Mavericks’ recent state had not already been so helter-skelter, there might be alarm that these latest episodes happened on the eve of Saturday night’s home opener against Charlotte.
“It’s not a distraction,” forward Elton Brand said. “A lot of guys are in and out, a lot of things are going on, but we’ve just got to focus on basketball.”
Just how fluid has the roster become? The franchise bid goodbye to Curry on Friday, even though the Mavs aren’t positive that Kaman, the only true center left on the roster, will be able to play on Saturday.
Kaman, signed to a one-year, $8 million contract this summer, has seen little court time since training camp began Sept. 29.
Kaman sprained his lower back during the first practice of camp, sat out for several days and played in only two preseason contests. Until Friday, he had not practiced since he strained his right calf against Phoenix on Oct. 17.
Kaman said he felt soreness while running Friday, adding that lingering pain is to be expected. His availability for Saturday largely depends on whether additional pain or swelling occurred overnight.
“I’m hoping. I think I am, but also I want to see how I feel in the morning.”
Why did the Mavericks waive Curry, potentially leaving them shorthanded at center, while adding a power forward in Murphy — who didn’t sign until late in the afternoon, too late to practice?
Donnie Nelson, president of basketball operations, said that with Kaman on the verge of returning and Dirk Nowitzki (arthroscopic knee surgery) out at least another couple of weeks, the organization decided that its greatest need is for power forward help.
Murphy, 32, has averaged double-figures points and rebounds in five of his 11 NBA seasons — but in the last two seasons averaged just 3.2 points and 3.2 rebounds.
Perhaps his most productive years were at Indiana, from the 2006-07 season to 2009-10. He played that first year under Rick Carlisle, now the Mavericks’ head coach, and the last three under current Mavs assistant Jim O’Brien.
In 2008-09, Murphy averaged 14.3 points and 11.8 rebounds.
“We need rebounding, we need shooting,” said Carlisle, whose 1-1 Mavericks have been outrebounded by an average of 53-40. “He’s a veteran guy who’s proven in both of those areas. We think he can help us.”
While Dallas might or might not have strengthened its frontcourt Friday, it may well have regressed in the backcourt.
After last week’s suspension and waiving of Delonte West, Beaubois appeared poised to seize the backup point guard spot behind Darren Collison. In the season-opening win over the Lakers, Beaubois had 11 points, five assists and no turnovers in 17 minutes.
As Friday’s practice neared its conclusion, however, Beaubois stepped on Vince Carter’s foot, turning the same ankle he injured in the exhibition opener in Berlin. He missed the next three preseason games.
“We’re hoping he’s going to be OK and it’s not serious,” Carlisle said, moments after watching Beaubois hop off the court on his good leg.
Cuban to aid Sandy victims: Late Friday afternoon, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban took to Twitter to pledge support of the hurricane victims and seek suggestions of where to steer his sizeable donation.
“Im going to donate $1mm dollars to support the victims of #Sandy in the name of @dallasmavs and @AXSTV ,” he tweeted. “Any suggestions on which entity?”

Honors and Stagemates
Meet The Suicide Kings as Individuals
The Suicide Kings are a spoken word trio comprised of three award-winning Poetry Slam Champions. Collectively, they are known for their explosive live performances and a stylistic versatility that has brought them legions of fans at universities, hip-hop venues, spoken word and poetry shows, punk venues, and in workshops with at-risk youth. The Suicide Kings dice spoken word, punk rock theatrics, and a cappella hip-hop into a breathtaking display that transcends what most people think of as poetry.
Their work reflects three lives and where they diverge and intersect: suicide attempts, human relationships, learning English as an immigrant, child molestation, Jewish and Asian identities, fatherhood, and personal triumph over adversity. They relate lyrics, poems, and stories that balance the profane and absurd on the head of a sword. They are the tattooed knuckles under the velvet glove of American poetry.
Honors:
HBO’s Def Poetry Jam 2003
West Coast Regional Slam Champs
National Slam Rank: 5th in Nation
bEASTfest 2002
They have shared the stage with spoken word artists, authors, comedians, and rock & hip-hop bands such as:
The Dwarves*Marc Bamuthi Joseph (SeeKing)*Jim Goad*Pitch Black*Saul Williams*Sekou tha Misfit*Sage Francis*Anticon*The Fleshies* Eighth Wonder*Deepdickollective*Dead & Gone*Ishle Yi Park, Beau Sia, Taalam Acey*The Cost*Enemies*Big Poppa E*Taylor Mali* Stacy Ann Chin* Roger Bonair-Agard
Geoff Trenchard’s poetry blasts you like a punk rock opera, taking the audience through the mosh pit of his mind. With a hardened empathy for the disposed and damaged, he has a style slick enough to spoon feed the boogieman nightmares. Since his burst on the San Jose slam poetry scene in 1999, he has hosted Bakatalk (one of San Jose¹s longest running open mics) and The Third Degree (San Jose¹s most successful Poetry Slams). After making the Silicon Valley Poetry Slam Team in 2000 and 2001, he toured the US and British Columbia. In 2002, he was part of the Berkeley Slam team who took the Western Regional Championship at Big Sur and went on to rank 5th in the nation. He currently lives in Oakland where he continues to write and teach poetry workshops all over the Bay.
Rupert Estanislao holds Quezon City, Philippines close to his heart and pens his immigration and experiences from his native home into performance poetry. Since coming to America in 1993, he has become the frontman for the multi-racial bilingual hardcore band Eskapo and screams a lot in Tagalog and English. He has performed at universities, high schools, punk venues, and slams all over the Bay Area. An immigrant, a punk, a perpetual novice who wishes to learn poetry from life on a day-to-day basis, he writes from beauty and brutality – attempting to pen his experiences from two cultures into the language of poetry.
Jamie Kennedy exploded onto the slam scene in 1999, on a team that took third place in the nation. He has competed and qualified for Bay Area team slots ever since. After being kicked out of two schools for his controversial performances, he created Tourettes Without Regrets, a kind of “psychotic vaudeville” show featuring spoken word, rock music, hip hop, and stage theatrics. He is known many ways and by many names: “hellspawn leprachaun”, “firecrotch” and as the outspoken great-grandson of L. Ron Hubbard. He performs regularly at universities, high schools, punk clubs, and slam venues. He is also a filmmaker, a novellist, and a father to his three year old daughter Nadia.

Is there any way of running and compiling with known errors in the code.
Her is my reason. I am using a reference to word 2008 and word 2010, so as the program will work with both versions. Trouble is that if the computer I am using to test the code, only has one installed (naturally) so the program wont compile or run for me to test other parts of the program. There must be a way of ignoring error which wont make any difference to the run time compile program.
Is there any way of running and compiling with known errors in the code.
Compiling? yes, running? No because the program has to be error-free in order to execute the code. There is no point in trying to execute a program that contains compile-time errors. How do you expect the compiler to generate executable code when the source code is crap?
Do you really need references to both versions of word at the same time? If you have the reference to word 2010 just test your program on a computer that has word 2008 installed on it.
Not as easy as that, and it is not CRAP code it is CRAP software that doesn't allow for this to work. On VB6 it would have worked fine.
The reason for the errors is because word 2003 needs to have the declared
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word to work, but 2007 onwards uses a completely different method and doesn;t recognise this statement, and thus the several hundred of statement that uses the "word" variable. The fact is that the compiled programme would never error because the code would route the programme to the correct version installed.
And I cant test on a computer that has 2010 on it as that will then error on the 2003 part of the code. nAnd in any case it is not so much as testing the programme as adding new code to other parts of the programme. I am at a loos as to what to do.
The only method I see available to me is to have a different database programme for each version of work, which seems ridiculous. But it looks like that is the way it has to be, or go back to VB6!
Couldn't you check the version and then conditionally branch from there? I found an example here: Click Here. Some sample code to look at might be helpful... By the way, what versions are you trying to support? The original post states Word 2008 and Word 2010, but Word 2008 is in Office 2008 for Mac only as far as I know.
The Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word namespace is documented on MSDN for Word 2003 and Word 2010 only, so apparently not distributed with any other versions of Office. That said, the Interop assemblies are available for redistribution. The assemblies for Office 2010 are found here: Click Here, I have no idea what will happen if you install and reference those assemblies on a system that has Word 2007 installed, and whatever code you write would have to be isolated by version and tested on a specific basis.
HKLM\Word.Application.CurVer also has the version number on my system (Office 2010), but I don't know whether that key exists in any/all other versions.
Again, it would be helpful to know what versions you need to support.
Yes, Interesting reading, and it uses VB6, which seems to work fine without the errors. I am trying to use all versions of word, ie 2000,2002,2003,2007 and 2010. But as 2000 and 2002 are too different I have decided to drop them.
I have now managed to convert the errors to warnings by somehow adding the references even though the computer doesn;t have the relevant versions installed, and it seems to work, I will know for sure when I try running the compiled programme on some other machines that only have one version installed, but I think it is going to work.
If you're all set, mark the thread as solved.
Thanks

My LifeProof Adventures
Several months ago I had a crazy dream. I’m not quite sure if it was fueled by my desire for a LifeProof cellphone case, pregnancy hormones or both…but it was frightening. Well, frightening to anyone who is dependent in any way on their smartphone.
In my dream I was hovering over a large body of water while someone was driving/riding a jet ski below me. The details of this dream are quite fuzzy now, but somehow I fell into the water. Hanging off the back of the jet ski, the lower half of my body was submerged in water – including the iPhone in my pocket. When I got out, my phone was completely waterlogged – I lost everything on it! Suffice it to say, I backed my phone up upon waking!
LifeProof water test
When my LifeProof case arrived, the first thing I had to do was conduct a water test without my phone inside. This helped ensure there were no defects and that I properly closed the case. It was a relief to test it this way first because I’m still a tad nervous about what if… But this thing is waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, mudproof and snowproof. Yes! It can withstand my daughter!
I can’t tell you how many times she’s grabbed my phone and taken off, making me hope nothing bad happens to it. She’s given me several near hearrt attacks, especially when in a throwing phase. Good thing this case can handle up to a 6 foot drop! Also, I’m guilty of using my phone during meal times. It’s usually sitting next to my plate… tempting fate with a big spill.
Up until now, I’ve been pretty lucky. My days are numbered though… but now there’s so much I can do without worry!
Adventures I can go on with LifeProof
- Deep sea diving
- Swimming with sharks
- Mud wrestling
- Bungee jumping
- Sky diving
- Snowboarding
- Parasailing
… okay so these types of activities aren’t my style, but at least I can relax when Rissa plays with my phone while we’re grocery shopping and drops it from the cart. Or when it tries to slide out of my pants pocket while I’m using the bathroom. (But now it can function as an underwater camera!)
I’ve been impressed with how my LifeProof case has kept my phone protected, though I still have some issues with the screen responsiveness. I’m not a fan of screen protectors and find myself needing to press harder and fix a whole lot more typos than usual. Other than that, I haven’t noticed a significant difference in how my phone functions overall with the case on. It’s a pain to take off though since it’s meant to stay on for day-to-day use to protect against unforeseen accidents as well as planned adventures.
We also tried the bike mount which can be attached to bikes, four wheelers, and strollers to name a few. The thickness of your stroller bar will make a difference. I was having issues with the mount either being too lose (spinning on the bar) or too tight where I couldn’t actually lock it into place. I have yet to try it on all of our strollers, so hopefully I can get it to play nice with at least one because I like the concept! We walk a lot when it’s nice out, so this could really come in handy for me.
While I’m still adapting to my new case, I think it is a must have with a tech savvy toddler in the house (who’s prone to sudden distraction and destruction). At the very least my phone should now be protected against milk, yogurt and peanut butter. Maybe I can get some blogging done in the shower now too?
What adventures do you take your phone on?
LifeProof is also available for sale at Best Buy, AT&T, Target, J&R Electronics and Radio Shack. Protect your iPhone 4/4S/5, iPod 4 or iPad 2/3/4 today! (Other cases are in the works too.)

Love this! I also am not a huge fan of cases/screen protectors so I am a little hesitant on more expensive ones, but this really seems like it protects the best on the market! Water Test!?

My son has the Iphone 4 and he is always on some adventure, skiing, off road stuff, you name it. He really needs this because is is terrible when it comes to keeping phones safe :)
This would be awesome! My husband had his dropped and we had to fix the whole front screen it was so cracked! He bought an otter box but to me it just doesn’t seem to hold up that well! This might be what we need to get him instead!
Would like to have this. Unfortunately, I am a klutz so this would work out well for me and my phone!
I think having to push a little harder on the screen is well worth it. I’ve dropped my phone so many times, its ridiculous! This sounds like a case I really need!
Jody Cowan recently posted..INFOGRAPHIC – HOW TO USE RAFFLECOPTERjandjsavings
I’ve dropped my phone a million times and in numerous wet places being the clumsy person I am. The places range from the Mud, a lake, the toilet, dog bowl, left out in the rain, flew out of my pocket when I was jumping stairs on a skateboard, etc. so this case would be so amazing for me!
Sounds like you definitely need one of these, Austin!Syrana
I want one of these for my phone. I have four kids and they love playing with it but it makes me so nervous. I love the bike/stroller mount you have.
I definitely this! I had a cute toddler tornado who’s almost 3 and I need something to protect my phone from her :) She means well but still has the regular toddler “oops” and drops.LifeWithBandM
you were brave with your experiment! would be great with our 4 year old grandson and wanting to use the phones!
Wow this would be so handy for a klutz like me!
This case is a must for someone living towards the beach. It provides the peace of mind of not having to worry about your phone. It is so easy just to wipe off the sand in the sink one at home. THANKS LIFEPROOF!
It’s only waterproof to 2 meters so I don’t recommend deep sea diving with it but snorkeling, surfing, and pool activities would be good to go. I am rough on my phone (went through three otterboxes before I found lifeproof) and I love the rugged, yet sleek case.fbomber42
Running, hiking, camping, and two kids under 4 who want to hold/play/throw my phone make a lifeproof necessary!!!
Anytime a small child gets a hold of my phone, it goes on an adventure! I would love to try this case.
I use my lifeProof case for swimming and when I wake board it’s awesome. Works great!!mcdaniel236
This is a must have for a snowboarder like me. Instead of buying a camera for taping it is so nice just to be able to use your phone. i want another case to give to my wife for a christmas gift! thanks!

Carbon Footprint Reduction
In order to affect the efficiency of our service and cost saving to our customers - by default we are reducing and maintaining a watchful eye on the print fleets of our customers. Which, through their consumption of power and use of paper contribute to the corporate carbon footprint.
The audit process Many of the customers we engage have no real idea of the amount of printers they have or the amount of paper they use. Our physical and software audits not only help quantify the size of this problem, but allow us to then work with the customer to reduce the effect of printers and printing on their corporate carbon footprint.
Implementation process By acting on our recommendation, customers will not only save money on their cost of printing, but will continue to so as we manage, monitor and advise on ongoing print strategy. As a result, customers who are conscious of their environmental impact stand to substantially reduce their carbon footprint as well as save money during this process.
Positive environmental activities
- Reduction of power consumption with rationalisation of hardware
- Hardware responsibly recycled where possible or disposed of in accordance with W.E.E.E. directive
- Reduction of printer consumables, and the waste they produce
- Reduction in the consumption of paper by the effective routing and control of documents, such as duplex printing.
On-going awareness We will keep you up to date with advice and recommendations that will ensure that not only is your future print strategy economical and efficient but that it also remains environmentally friendly. We can recommend printers with the latest revision Energy mark compliance, or reduced ozone emissions.

In today’s dating scene, it’s not uncommon that more girls are wanting to take control and call the guys after a date.
If you had a great time and can’t wait to tell him, I recommend texting him after the date to let him know you got home OK and you had a lot of fun getting to know him. Leave it at that. But after a couple of days, if he hasn’t called you yet, you can call him to let him know you were thinking about how much fun you had on your date and you hope to see him again. If you’re feeling bold, you can even ask him out for the second date. Just don’t be too forward by calling or texting every day. Once the ball is in his court, let him make the next move.
Don’t let society’s expectations of women hold you back from getting what you want. Just go for it!

Girl s Special Occasion Dress in Chiffon Style V1249 3 3
Perfect This dress was perfect for my daughter. She is ten and was not a fan of the big flower girl dresses. Being that she is an older flower girl, she wanted something a little more mature. This dress was perfect! It was mature looking and still had a touch of little girl to it. My bridesmaids wore long chiffon dresses as well so she fit right in. I did have to order her a 12 although she usually wears a 10 but it fit very nicely. She was beautiful! December 4, 2012
Cutest Flower Girl This dress fit in perfect for the empire dresses that all the ladies were wearing in my wedding party. It fit perfect on the flower girl and was not to hot. the dress flowed beautifully. There was no need for the dress to get altered as it arrived to fit. July 8, 2012
Adorable! This dress looks better than in the picture! The fabric is very nice and makes the dress look so elegant! My niece loves wearing it! March 1, 2010

You can have a big impact on moving us all toward a greener future in the individual choices you make each day. These are some of the easiest and most effective ways, in four key areas, to reduce our carbon footprint and help improve our quality of life.
Transportation:
-.
Energy
You've probably heard that Canada is the largest consumer of energy in the world on a per capita basis, and the second largest producer of greenhouse gases (after the United States). We have just over 30 million people, but we use as much energy as the entire continent of Africa, home to 700 million! Wasting energy hurts nature and your wallet because energy efficiency means lower bills as well as less pollution. Here's how to stem your energy leaks:
-.
Food
There are so many humans on the planet, simply feeding ourselves has led to all kinds of environmental havoc — air and water pollution, loss of soil and reduced biodiversity. It's time to clean up our act. We can have a huge effect on climate change by simply changing a few of our food habits. Here's how.
-.
Take action.
We've even made it easy for you to send a message to our leaders on issues that are important to us and the environment.
No one's asking you to stay home and lock yourself in a closet. Get out in the world! Just try to lighten your footprint.

Novelist Catriona McPherson — who specializes in mysteries featuring amateur sleuth Dandy Gilver, set in Scotland circa the 1920s — picked up an award at last month’s Bouchercon, an annual convention for mystery writers and fans, held this year in Cleveland.
McPherson, who lives outside Winters, received the Sue Feder Historical Mystery Award for her recently published book “Dandy Gilver and the Proper Treatment of Bloodstains. “It’s one of the four McCavity Awards, which are voted on by the members of Mystery Readers International,” McPherson told The Enterprise.
McPherson had not been expecting the honor. It was her first time to be nominated for the award, and when she saw the list of other nominees, including several well-established writers, “I figured I wouldn’t need to write an acceptance speech,” she said, because she figured one of the others would win. “So when they called my name, I had nothing prepared to say!
“I managed to remember to thank two people — my U.S. editor, Marcia Markland of Minotaur, and Janet Rudolph, of Mystery Readers International. But I also should have thanked the people who voted for me! That’s how untogether I was,” McPherson said.
The award itself is “a big chunk of see-through crystaline material, with a cat on it. On the way home, I paused at the X-ray machine at the airport while they examined it,” she said.
It was McPherson’s first time to visit Cleveland; the Bouchercon was held at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
“Downtown Cleveland is very pretty,” she observed, adding, “I had been to Ohio before — I spent a winter in Wooster, Ohio, the sort of thing you do if you’re married to someone who teaches agriculture.” (Her husband Neil McRoberts is a plant pathologist on the UC Davis faculty.)
While at the convention, McPherson said, “I was on the ‘Fifty Shades of Cozy’ Panel” — the name being a reference to both the fast-selling erotic novel ”Fifty Shades of Grey” and the “cozy mystery” subgenre of which McPherson’s Dandy Gilver series is a part. “The other panelists included someone who writes a Southern consignment shop mystery series, someone who writes quilting mysteries, someone who writes the White House gardener mystery series (set in Washington, D.C). We were all talking about whether the ‘cozy mystery’ can adapt in an era when sexy fiction sells.
“But mostly, what I did was talk to fans, sign books and talk to other writers,” McPherson said. “I was out and about looking at shiny things, instead of typing in a room by myself.”
She has some new books coming up.
“I’ve recently sold a separate book — not part of the Dandy Gilver series — which is a modern standalone British suspense thriller, titled ‘As She Left It,’ ” McPherson said. As compared with the quaintly Scottish and historical Dandy Gilver books, this one is “dreary-grubby British,” she added. It will be coming out on Midnight Ink Press.
She’s also completed another Dandy Gilver book, “Dandy Gilver and the Bothersome Number of Corpses,” which is already out in the United Kingdom, and will be published in the U.S. in June. “It’s the first book in the series that I wrote here in California,” she added.

Hi friends,
I need to create an unique index on a set of 6 fields, which combinedly make a record as unique in one of our tables(there is no single field which is unique on its own).
I need to know, how does Oracle work when it creates the index or when validating the uniqueness. For example, let us say the index is on col1 to col6, in that order. Col1 has values which have the maximum chance to be unique and col6 has least chances. So, if a new record is inserted which has an unique value of col1, are the other columns still compared or not?
The main point here is that I need to select the order of the columns in the index. What will be the best order : "most unique chances" to "least unique chances" or it does not matter?
Thanks
manjunath
When creating a compound index, you should use the field that has the greatest number of unique values as the first column of the index. That being said, with six fields in your PK, you may want to look at using an artificial PK for this table.

Thanks Jeff,
We will be first testing the index on the 6 fields and I will also test the artificial Primary key.
Thanks again

I've heard this same line repeated many times. Personally, I think it needs to have the following disclaimer: "All other things being equal" added to it.
Why? Because applicability of the index matters more than selectivity. You may pick field 5 to be the first field in the index because of its selectivity. However, what if you almost never include field 5 in the WHERE clause? You have a more selective index that will never actually be used. You can always fix your selectivity issue using a hint, but you can't force an index if you aren't using the left, leading columns. Just something to think about.
- Chris
Of course, I was assuming that because it is a PK that you would be doing DML against it where you would need to specify the exact PK. But, yes, if you are not using the most selective field, it would be a poor candidate for a PK or ANY index.
Gurus,
What in god's name is a artificial PK?
Nizar
An artificial PK is a primary key in which it holds no meaning to the row in which it identifies. Yes, it violates normalization rules, but it has become a common practice among today's "modern" architects.
In this situation, the user needs six fields to form a natural PK. If he/she added a field called "id" and populated it with the value from a sequence, any joins would probably execute faster.
Originally posted by marist89
Yes, it violates normalization rules, ...
I've heard others say this as well, but I just don't see it. I don't see how adding a surrogate key breaks any of the rules of normalization.
- Chris
One would still need a unique index if they want to make sure that the combination of all those values are unique, right ?
But may be you are right if you have a artificial PK the queries will be faster !
thanks
Sonali

It didn't take long for our jailbroken AppleTV's to get rocking with custom Apps. The first app to come to AppleTV is called nitoTV.
nitoTV is a front end application for the popular mplayer media player. Using perian and Apple's DVDPlayback.framework, users can create playlists and add files or folders of their choice.
So what else does NitoTV do? Well it's more than just a media player. Supposedly you can even use NitoTV to play nes, snes, genesis, game gear and gameboy advanced roms, view RSS feeds and 3-day Weather forecasts.
At this point, you should be able to play almost any media file type. However, the installation process might have the unexperienced scratching their head. You will be required to SSH the files over to your AppleTV.
Note: The current installer packages are NOT for AppleTV 2, but the original AppleTV.

Red Snapper Season Extended in State Waters FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Vernon Minton July 7, 2008 251-968-7576 Governor Bob Riley has extended red snapper season within Alabama’s jurisdictional waters through October 31, 2008. After discussion with Conservation Commissioner Barnett Lawley, Riley cited the inconsistency of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to force compliance with the federal regulations regarding red snapper in Florida and Texas. Texas has a year-round season for its states waters with a four-fish bag limit with a minimum length of 15 inches, while Florida has an April 15 through Oct. 31, 2008 season with a two-fish bag limit with a minimum length of 16 inches. Current federal regulations governing red snapper fishing set a season of June 1 through Aug. 5, 2008 with a bag limit of two per person with a minimum length of 16 inches. Captain and crew may not possess any red snapper. “Alabama understands and supports the federal government’s policies on managing marine resources,” said Governor Riley. “However, we cannot stand by and allow Alabama's fishermen to be penalized without NOAA addressing the lack of support by other states." Commissioner Lawley said that federal regulations have little effect on states like Florida and Texas with nine nautical miles of state waters off shore. Alabama, with its three nautical miles, is significantly affected. “Those states can continue to harvest red snapper while our charter captains struggle with the burden of 56 fewer days of fishing,” Lawley said. “This economic burden is multiplied in communities like Orange Beach and Dauphin Island where offshore fishing is a driving force in their economies.” The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources promotes wise stewardship, management and enjoyment of Alabama’s natural resources through five divisions: Marine Police, Marine Resources, State Lands, State Parks, and Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries.

EXCLUSIVE: Walton Goggins has joined the cast of director Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln. He will play Ohio Congressman Wells A. Hutchins, a progressive Democrat who goes against his party and votes in favor of the Thirteenth Amendment to abolish slavery. He will co-star alongside Daniel Day-Lewis as Abraham Lincoln; Sally Field as Mary Todd Lincoln; and David Strathairn, who recently joined the cast, as Secretary of State William Seward. The DreamWorks film — with a screenplay from Tony Kushner based on the bestselling book Team of Rivals by Doris Kerns Goodwin – is set to begin production in the fall in Virginia and will be released in late 2012 through Disney’s Touchstone label. Goggins, who is in the supporting Emmy hunt for playing Boyd Crowder on FX’s Justified and next appears this month in Cowboys & Aliens and in September in Straw Dogs, is repped by APA and manager Darris Hatch.
Walton Goggins Joins Cast Of ‘Lincoln’
Awesome actor and presence, great to see him getting A-list film work
I worked with Walt on Cowboys and Aliens.. there’s not hardly a nicer guy or a more class act out there…
I hope he gets cast in EVERYTHING. They have a great actor on their hands on Lincoln now..
He stole the show on Predators… and will steal his scenes in Cowboys.
Fantastic! I’ve loved Walton Goggins’ work since The Shield days, and he has done his best work yet on Justified. Amazingly talented guy; so glad he’s (or might finally be) getting his due!
I’m a moviegoer and I approve this cast.
Fabulous casting! I adore him on Justified.
Looks like it’s Shield alum day on Deadline, what w/ Goggins and Chiklis. One of the best shows ever on TV. And Walton Goggins is awesome. I hope he gets in more awesome movies.
man I wish I had teeth like that.
it’s kinda ironic that when The Shield started he was probably the weakest link in the fantastic group on actors on that show, when the show was ending he was the best one.
In Justified absolutely amazing body of work!
Always like watching him.
Nice to hear other people say good things about him, too.
What a cast! Steven Spielberg is brilliant. Can’t wait to see this.
I met Walt while he was shooting a film in Georgia a few years back. He is truly one of the nicest people you will ever meet. He deserves every bit of success he has gotten and continues to get. Big congrats!
It will be chronologically challenging for Spielberg to mention the Nazis in this film. He’ll find a way, I’m sure.
is this guy related to brian grazer? also would like to know how much forehead is going to be in this film? between ddl and he I’d say they are going for the record
Fantastic choice. Boyd, Shane, he is amazing…. So happy to see some appreciation…
Shane I hate! Walton I love! Can’t wait to see this movie and great cast!
I have known walt for a very long time now. And he is an amazing human being first and foremost. And he got hit with the talent tree to boot. Go get em walt!! Hard work and hang on tight my old friend
the big question is will Walt / Shane be in the Shield feature I keep hearing about? The Shield TV series had flashbacks. It would be great to see flashbacks in the Shield film.
Dutch & Claudette 4ever!
Walton Goggins will win an Oscar for best actor at some point in his career. Love the book. Love the Goggins. Nothing but greatness due and coming his way.
Walton is the shit. He should work in everything, and on the weekends he should do children’s television just to floss. There is nothing this actor can not do.
let me explain to the suits on the thread:
Walton is Brad Pitt minus the pussification and highlights. He makes other actors work to match his level of performance.

TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.
Betty White’s Off Their Rockers has to be one of the worst hidden camera shows on television. It’s waaaaay over produced and the pranks are terribly unfunny. They should take heed from the Canadian show, Just For Laughs.
I think the Betty White show is produced very well. It doesn’t look or feel cheaply made and I think it’s very funny… and a nice change from the typical crap on TV.
Cougar Town after Modern Family doesnt seem so bad now does it ABC?
Thanx for the numbers Nellie. I’m glad the bitch on Abc went up. Also,how long can Nbc continue airing Betty White’s show? Nbc must be the ones off their rockers. Another Nbc show with terrible numbers. I know they might not have anything to replace it with at the moment. It is really a shame what has become of this once dominant network. Seems the peacock is no longer relevant to anyone anymore. Very depressing.
Cougar town is horribly written and IMHO I think it’s ruined coxs career
I believe Betty White’s stroke of luck is about to come to an end as now it’s nothing more than over-exposure of her on NBC and other formats. Just doing shows like this is just hurting her reputation right now. Just call it a career already Betty. Rock Center is about to be rock-bottomed as that show has never had consistency before, but what NBC show has? NBC is awful!!
This show might have been more of a hit had it not been for all the sex related skits.
They did not need them….more in the veinof the old “candid camera” would have been much more entertaining – using the”Old Folks”

Seagate ST320005EXA101-RK (2 TB)
Seagate 2TB External at Amazon
Pros: Fast and so far reliable, great addition to my 12TB storage I already have.
Cons: Lies flat, not stackable. Thicker pads needed to add height and maybe make it stackable.
Bottom Line:
Worth the price and the price is at least $10 below the local stores around here. Because it is over $25 it is free shipping. Great deal. Read More at Epinions.com

Clicking noise after only 5 weeks
Pros: Attractive body design, drive activity lamp on front, good price.

Bottom Line:
Ordinarily, this would be a great drive for $130, but not this one. Read More at Epinions.com
Drive Failed

It does not matter if you are an experienced gardener or you are just starting out, anyone can successfully conquer indoor gardening with the right tools and understanding of the process. There are many things that you will need to know before you get started. Make sure you take the time to fully research how to get setup, how to have your garden grow and how to maintain all that you have worked so hard to grow. Everything from grow lights to hydroponic growing techniques will need to be known before you even begin.
To get vitamin rich vegetables, large amounts of produce, year around production, disease free product and easy maintenance you will want to learn more about gardening indoors. When you are ready to begin indoor gardening, it is important to setup your area properly. Make sure that you measure and then measure again before placing your grow box because you will need ample amount of room around the box as well as above the box. You will also want to make sure it is in a fairly open space so that you can proper ventilation and air movement around your box. Overall, this is a great way to grow many different kinds of plants and vegetables and will give you the most organic outcome possible.

Indoor gardening is a great way to bring your garden inside during the cold months or even all year around. Many people, who do not have room for a conventional garden at their home, will choose to grow inside. With the proper amount of education and understanding of how to correctly do indoor gardening, you too will be able to have your favorite flowering plant, delicious vegetables and beautiful herbs growing inside of your home.

As a college student in the “broke as a joke” demographic, any company’s effort to combat the criminal practice of textbook sales is much appreciated.
As a soon-to-graduate college senior, I’ve experienced the financial woes that entail the college experience, to some extent. I was lucky enough to earn a few state scholarships that covered a good deal of my tuition and fees, but due to recent budget cuts in Florida my prize of free textbooks has been revoked and I’ve been forced to confront the blunt trauma of textbook purchasing.
It could be effectively argued that college textbook sales are a criminal undertaking. Nearly every college student has gone through the injustice of purchasing a brand new textbook, barely turning a page because the professor decided it wasn’t necessary for the curriculum (or worse, the professor includes their own books in the required curriculum for personal profit), then being given the cold shoulder by college bookstores on a buyback after your “latest edition” textbook is no longer the latest edition.
I’ve opened the pages of so-called “newer editions” of the textbook I’ve attempted to sell back and seen no more new additions than a few updated pictures and sources. Unfortunately, in the system students have to deal with right now, you’re lucky to walk away with 20% of the book’s original listing price if it’s deemed out-of-date.
Amazon’s latest announcement will have college students, and Kindle owners particularly, finally optimistic about purchasing or renting textbooks this semester. Kindle owners, or anyone with a Kindle reading app, can choose to rent participating textbooks for a span of 30 to 360 days, saving up to 80% on the listing price.
Amazon started its positive relationship with college students by offering a free Prime membership, entailing highly discounted shipping costs to any Prime-eligible item, including textbooks. Now, students like myself who used to only order the discounted textbook for midterm and finals week can choose to rent books for only as long as they’re needed, with a 30-day minimum. Very rarely have I seen a professor utilize a textbook for more than 30 days the entire semester.
What may sound like a shameless pandering to Amazon is actually one student’s grateful recognition of a company’s efforts to ease the unnecessary and overwhelming burden placed on students’ wallets to simply purchase the course materials required of them. With the ability to save notes and annotations even after the rental is over, Amazon is finally allowing many students to use textbooks for the length and purpose which they actually use them.
In an increasingly digital world, it’s encouraging to see the digital consumption of goods extend into the college campus, as such devices have made the most valued college resources more inexpensive and accessible to students. Services like Netflix make owning a TV with cable nearly futile, while Hulu Plus also offers a free one-month trial for users that register with a student e-mail account.
As education budgets are slashed, tuition continues to skyrocket and students reliant on ramen and instant coffee are left in the crossfire. It’s encouraging to see major companies like Amazon offer services to at least ease some of the burden accumulated in the form of student debt.

This might be a game changer: Sands casino CEO Sheldon Adelson just donated $10 million to the biggest pro-Romney SuperPAC, and he claims there’s a lot more where that came from. He’s indicated that he’ll go at last up to $100 million as a rough ballpark, but Forbes reports that his real number is actually bigger: “limitless.”
Forbes points out that Adelson is worth $24.9 billion, and that his recent $10 million donation is equivalent to $40 to a family of 4 with a net worth of $100,000. Donating hundreds of millions of dollars—or whatever amount it would take to overwhelm Obama’s fundraising efforts—wouldn’t make a dent in his personal fortune, and he seems to be serious about about doing just that. “No price is too high,” says Adelson.
His reasoning sounds lifted verbatim from a Fox News segment:
What scares me is the continuation of the socialist-style economy we’ve been experiencing for almost four years. That scares me because the redistribution of wealth is the path to more socialism, and to more of the government controlling people’s lives.
…
U.S. domestic politics is very important to me because I see that the things that made this country great are now being relegated into duplicating that which is making other countries less great.
I guess it’s understandable why very rich people would hate the phrase “redistributing wealth.” But this line of logic always amazes me. It’s as if these people have never heard of the New Deal, which “redistributed wealth” to the tune of pulling us out of the Great Depression. It’s as if they’ve never driven on a highway, for that matter, which were all built by pooling dollars to create something collectively that we would never build otherwise.
The things that make this country great aren’t just an every-man-for-himself free-for-all that allows guys like Adelson to get insanely rich. It’s a hybrid free market and social-minded approach that both allows guys like Adelson to get insanely rich and also gives him a road to drive on when he walks out the front door of his house.
Beyond Adelson’s line of reasoning, what’s troubling about his promise of “limitless” funds is that it almost guarantees Obama’s wealthy backers will feel pressured to match, making it basically a zero sum game but ensuring that political dialogue becomes a matter of inundating voters with paid messaging. That’s not how voting was supposed to work. But it’s the new reality of how things are.
