there want to hire employees that miss a lot of work or are day to day.
Now if you have something else going on with Diabetes well that
should just about answer your ? you are basically Done.
You need to not be working because of your disability and keep in mind that there is a 5-month waiting period from the time that SSA determines your eligibility date. Also, you must have worked and contributed to SSA enough fiscal quarters to qualify. I had worked for 30 years, so I had no problem meeting this part of the eligibility requirements.
I believe diabetes is covered under the Americans With Disabilities Act. That means your employer must allow reasonable accommodations for you. For example, you may be working someplace that doesn't allow food in the work station. Your employer would need to allow you to go somewhere and have a snack if you needed one to maintain your blood sugar. It might mean providing a stool for a normally standing job if you have neuropathy and can't stand but could perform the job equally well by using a stool. Accommodation may not apply if you work in a small company, I'm not sure if company size factors into the picture.
Diabetic since 5/2001

Smile and the world smiles with you.
If you let it go, and your numbers are frequently too high, have many complications, miss work a lot, etc it can become a disability and liability.
I would think that your diabetes is something that is none of your employer's business as a rule. He doesnt have to know that unless you are having a lot of issues and problems at work.
I would suggest you seek out a specialist who will work with you on getting your sugars down and also get you on a medication for the neuropathy. There is no need to go to the hospital so much, or to try for disability of you can get your health better.
Spelling "world" backwards shows if you have cognitive decline.
However, an employer cannot reject you because of information about your disability revealed by the medical examination, unless the reasons for rejection are job-related and necessary for the conduct of the employer's business. The employer cannot refuse to hire you because of your disability if you can perform the essential functions of the job with an accommodation.
The results of all medical examinations must be kept confidential and maintained in separate medical files apart from your regular personnel files.
Can my employer require me to take medical tests in order to keep my job?Under the Americans with Disabilities Act , once you have been hired and started work, your employer cannot require that you take a medical examination or ask questions about your disability unless they are related to your job and necessary for the conduct of your employer's business. For example, if you appeared to be homicidal or suicidal, your employer might have a duty to require a psychological exam and/or inform your coworkers, to keep the workplace safe.
What does it have to do with your disability of diabetes - absolutely nothing. It is just SSDI's way of disqualifying you for disability. This test consists of 11 questions for a total of 30 points. Your question was a 5 point question and one of the hardest on the test.. Believe me a child between the ages of 7-9 years of age could get a perfect score because these questions are that ridiculous.
As I was personally told by an Occupational Vocational Rehabilitation employee from the county I live in -"you have to learn how to work the system". Translation even though you know the answer act confused and get it wrong. I personally do not understand the issues except that the longer they reject you they hope you will give up. Also, if your under 50 yrs old you might as well forget it.
I am 53 - have been diagnosed with severe carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands even after one and was operated on, suffering from major depression and have in the past year found out that I have uncontrolled diabetes. Doctors have submitted the forms requested by disability stating the I have less then a year before I will have no use of my hands. Yes, I was denied disability. All these factors have been submitted to the appeal board by a lawyer and I have been waiting for 8 months - was told maybe I will get a hearing in early 2013. Common sense should be part of the decision because by the time I get to the hearing the year will be up by 5 months. Maybe when I get there and have no use of my hands at all because of the games they play I will be able to get disability and also need a live in caretaker which will have to be supplied by the state because I am absolutely broke at this point. Personally I am at the point of giving up because I really can not stand to go on like this - the depression is taking its to but I am working with doctors on this issue.
My one bit of advice is google - disability secrets and see if under any of the info posted can give you a clue as to another way of working the system. I personally found out that some of the info posted there many of us would not know about. but a good lawyer does. That is part of it - you need a lawyer and if they are good you shouldn't have any up front fees. I worked for 33 years and made a middle class salary - the most I will have to pay the lawyer is $6,000.00 if a win the case. The lawyer gets absolutely no money if he loses the case. So if you find a lawyer like this you know they won't likely take a case they don't feel they can win. Best of luck to you!!!
I was diagnosed in 2007 with type 2, was put on Metformin 2,000mg daily - but I was determined to stop it in it's tracks. I am disabled for many reasons and diabetes is not one of them.
With hard work, change of Drs, the right medication and dietitian, little exercise and determination I put my diabetes in remission that was March of 2010. I still am medication free and my numbers are normal. Yesterday was the first time I had a day time low (63). I knew to eat carbs to bring it up.
It may not be curable BUT it can be controlled and reserved to the point you can be normal again. It does not have to be a death sentence for anyone. Many on this board have been diabetic for many years and manage their diabetes well.
If your numbers are not coming down perhaps you need to see another Dr or have your medications switched a good dietitian can help as well.
Come follow my life's journey at:
The sentence "his numbers are high because as the man said it contributes greatly to your death" makes no sense. High sugars does contribute to complications which could result in death, but the fear of death from these complications shouldnt make sugars high. Eating the wrong foods, being on the wrong medications, and not taking care of yourself all contribute to high sugars, and all can be controlled.
I have been diabetic since I was 16, so for 13 years now, and am a type 1. I have *no* complications from being diabetic, and my last A1c was 6.1. I studied endocrinology while in college in getting my degree. I've taken classes taught by CDEs and continue to see an educator at least once a year. I think I understand the disease pretty well.

Ricky Vaccaro tells WFMZ-TV that an inflatable Santa helicopter and a giant reindeer were last seen in his Ruscombmanor Township yard on Sunday.
Vaccaro's brother bought the decorations for his nephew and niece — Vaccaro's son and 3-year-old daughter — who hugged the decorations each day, and cried when they were taken.
That prompted Vaccaro to post comments on Facebook including, "Really ... how desperate are you for decorations that you had to steal my kids blow ups? Unreal." Vaccaro told the thieves they could return the decorations or he'd turn over a surveillance tape to police.
Vaccaro says the decorations were returned Thursday — no questions asked.

Texas Longhorn Football Will Be Back in 2012
VY had a good game in the Titans' 30-13 victory over Jacksonville. 15/18 for 125 yards and a TD. 0 interceptions. 30 yards rushing.
If I were Vince myself, I'd hate to be playing for such a two-faced, finicky fan base. One particularly ironic con listed: "On a visceral, somewhat illogical level, I hate to see any position turned-over by default. i would so rather VY win it than get it by Kerry's complete failure."
For one day at least, Vince Young stepped up to try to fill the void for the late Steve McNair's two young sons, the Tennessean reported Thursday. Young surprised 11-year-old Trenton and 5-year-old Tyler on Wednesday by showing up at their house and taking them to their school's "Dear Dads Breakfast" at a local restaurant...
Should Tennessee Titans coach Jeff Fisher be considering Vince Young over Kerry Collins?
A link I saw at With Leather to an article at Slate. A different, intelligent viewpoint on the Vince Young sitution.
Here's another link: http://www.wkrn.com/Global/story.asp?S=8976169&nav=menu5_4
I'm as big a fan of Vince as anyone out there, but reading stories like this sucks. Let's hope it is far from the truth, as it will reflect very poorly on VY and his future success in the NFL if it...
Though there's still no definitive word on when Vince Young's #10 Texas Jersey will be retired (Our best bet: FAU Game), the BON authors thought it might be fun, and a good way to honor what will...

Blue Jays starting pitcher J.A. Happ met with reporters this afternoon in Tampa Bay, less than 24 hours after one of the worst nightmares in baseball -- a line drive back to the mound that hit Happ in the head.
He left the field on a stretch and was taken to a nearby hospital. He was released this morning.
In the presser with media members in Tampa, Happ said that he suffered a small fracture behind his ear and that he had stitches in his ear. The injuries were not serious or life threatening.
On the play, he also tweaked his knee and will have further tests to determine the damage. Sportsnet reporter Shi Davidi noted in his Twitter feed that Happ "limped on and off dais" at the press conference.
Happ also said he watched the replay and joked that he thought he made a good pitch. He spoke with Tampa Bay's Desmond Jennings, telling the centerfielder that he knew it wasn't his fault. Happ will likely stay in the Bay area for further tests, although he said he does not have a concussion.
The Blue Jays moved Happ to the disabled list and purchased the contract of Edgar Gonzalez, who was scheduled to start Thursday for the Bisons. Gonzalez was 1-0 with a 5.49 ERA for the Herd this season.

I guess I'm starting my audio system little by little. Started by picking up an AudioControl LC6 for $50 from a buddy and then just got a C400.4 amp today for...$49. haha yeah, you read that right. I guess it's good to work in the industry and find the stupid good deals. It's also good when the company you work for does their own in house financing so when something goes on bad credit, REPO! Repo's = f'ing good deals... as above. So I tested it out fully and everything is in great shape. It's got one or two small scratches and no box/manual. DARN!
So now the plan is to get my SR6500's (god they need to get returned/repo'd too!!) and a sub. So do I go with an Image Dynamics 10" to run off the back channels of the 400 or do I wait 6-12 months to get another amp/SR10? If I wait, I can bi-amp the SR's for the mean time and use the OEM sub which is eeehhh but it'll do. I'm thinking about doing the route of the ID10 (or IDQ10). Thoughts?
BTW, don't hate... :D

The Clinton Herald
---- — CLINTON — Area Lutherans will complete various service projects this weekend to celebrate 25 years for the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America.
"We do wonderful work in the world; wonderful services," St. Paul Lutheran's Pastor Elizabeth Liggett said.
Many Lutheran congregations will celebrate the anniversary on Sunday. Immanuel Lutheran, Chancy Lutheran, St. Paul Lutheran and Zion Lutheran will join together at the Riverview Park Bandshell to share a meal and worship. Participants will then break up to volunteer for one of four service projects.
"We wanted a mixture," Liggett said. "We wanted hands on. And we wanted local things as well as more than local."
Some of the volunteers will pick up trash at a local park, while others will stay at the bandshell and assemble personal care kits to be sent around the world through Lutheran World Relief. A total of 200 bath towels from Thrivent will be used for the personal care kits.
Another group will visit the Associate Benevolent Society. Executive Director Paula Mallory will take the group on a tour of the building, explaining the organization's services. Volunteers may fold clothes, water exterior plants and clean windows.
Mallory is happy to have the group coming to the society.
"Anytime you can get more people to know what's going on in the community, the more support you receive," Mallory said.
A final group will volunteer for an hour at the Bickelhaupt Arboretum or the Freedom Trees site. They will perform yard work at the sites.
Liggett said the members of the Lutheran churches are happy to roll up their sleeves and volunteer in the community.
"And we believe that God works through our hands," Liggett said.
The event will begin at noon. Participants are asked to bring a can of food, as well as any personal care items, such as soap, toothbrushes, combs and nail clippers.
For more information, contact Liggett at 242-4102

Grace Shannon, 17, was completely surprised when she won the 2013 Youth of the Year award for the St. Charles County Family YMCA.
"I didn't even know the award existed. It was a big surprise," said Grace.
Each year Lindenwood University generously awards a scholarship of approximately $62,000 to the young person named the Joseph P. Sunnen Youth of the Year and approximately $33,000 in scholarships to each of those selected Branch Youth of the Year. Jordan Deitering, 17, of Chesterfield is the Sunnen Scholarship Winner. Grace Shannon won the St. Charles County Family YMCA award.
"I feel very honored." said Grace.
Grace, a student of St. Charles High School, received the award at a ceremony on February 13th at the Lindenwood Club in St. Charles. Her parents and brother accompanied her. As a recipient of the award, Grace also received a $33,000 scholarship from Lindenwood University.
There to congratulate her from the St. Charles YMCA were Renee Tillman, Executive Director, and Adam Styer, Sports and Camp Director.
"This is such a great award and we are so proud of Grace," said Tillman.
Service is no stranger to Grace. She has spent a number of years helping out
at summer camps, working with all age groups. She was only 13 when she began volunteering at the Y as a Counselor in Training. She did this for three summers and then became a Junior Counselor.
"I fell in love with the kids and with the opportunity," said Grace. "The YMCA is like my second home."
Adam Styer and Angie Layne, Camp Directors for the Y, nominated Grace for the award. "Grace's contributions to camp and her work with the children of the St. Charles YMCA was a fantastic gift," said Styer. "She constantly brought great energy and a passion for the day."
Grace continuously goes above and beyond as a leader among her peers and serves as a great role model for the CIT's. Outside of the Y, Grace is an active member of her church, leading multiple community projects at places such as Emmaus House and the St. Charles Preservation Organization.

Hello Everyone,
I just joined PNP. After searching through discussion threads, I haven't seen anything regarding advertising at a vet's office or perhaps even at Pets Mart for fuel donations. I would like to advertise in order to make these missions easier on my pocket book as I am a young, struggling flight instructor looking to build time myself. These missions will be a fun way to accomplish my goals, plus I love animals!
So, in short, would be permissible to advertise under the PNP name and logo for fuel money donations?

Two CHP Officers Killed
I just returned to the office today to report, with great sadness, the deaths of two California Highway Patrol officers. Both officers were killed in the line of duty in separate incidents on Sunday, June 27, 2010. Unfortunately, five California Highway Patrol officers have now been killed in the line of duty since May 7th.
Officer Justin McGrory was struck and killed by a drunk driver while conducting a field sobriety test on I-15 in Barstow at 3:38 am.
Officer McGrory
Officer McGrory and his partner had stopped a suspected drunk driver and were administering the tests when he was struck. His partner was not injured. The drunk driver who struck him stopped a short distance away. He was arrested and charged with vehicular manslaughter.
Officer McGrory had served with the California Highway Patrol for almost three years. He is survived by his expectant wife and three small children.
Officer Brett Oswald was killed when he was struck by a vehicle at the scene of an abandoned vehicle.
Officer Oswald
Officer Oswald responded to a report that a vehicle had hit a tree on South River Road in Paso Robles. After investigating, Officer Oswald determined that no accident had occurred and that the vehicle was abandoned. He called for a tow truck and was waiting next to his patrol car, when a passing vehicle crossed the double yellow lines and struck the patrol car. The force of the impact pushed the patrol car into him.
Officer Oswald was transported to a local hospital where he later died from his injuries.
Sympathy cards may be sent to the California Highway Patrol, P.O. Box 942898 , Sacramento , CA 94298 . Questions regarding funeral arrangements or survivor benefit fund information can be obtained by calling the CHP at (916) 657-7261.
Please keep the families of Officers McGrory and Oswald, and the men and women of the California Highway Patrol in your thoughts and prayers during this extremely difficult time.
With Honor and Respect,
Ken Howes
Executive Director
American Association of State Troopers
Gotcha covered on both officers here, oldtrooper. No worries.
4 of those 5 deaths were due to stupid idiot drivers. The first one back in May was an airplane crash. The rest were in June.
CHP officer Justin Mc Grory
CHP officer Brett Oswald
It appears that the California Highway Patrol is the agency of the year for in the line of duty deaths.
Choose The Right. When you're doing whats right, then you have nothing to worry about.

Defense continues to be a work in progress for the Muskogee Lady Roughers and they showed it off against the Hilldale Lady Hornets in a 61-45 in the Large School Girls semifinal in the 33rd Bedouin Shrine Classic at Muskogee's Ron Milam Gym on Friday night.
"Our defense was better," Muskogee coach Doyle Rowland said after his team, ranked No. 8 in the Okrankings.com Class 6A poll, won their seventh game in nine outings, but has uncharacteristically given up 169 in splitting a pair of early-season games in 6A competition.
"We may start out in a man-to-man defense, but we switch to different ones to get the most out of all of our players," Rowland added. "But our rotation on defense has got to improve. We need to have a good defense against the 6A teams we'll be playing against this season."
Hilldale coach Scott Hensley watched his struggle to score against the athletic Lady Roughers.
"They play a very physical defense," he said. "We couldn't get around them. We're a better team playing for them. That was a good team."
Hillary Calvert agreed.
"They are solid," she said. "We played as hard as we could against them."
The win puts the Lady Roughers in position to win their fourth straight tournament championship. Rowland's squad meets 6A No. 9 Enid at 7:30 tonight at Muskogee Civic Center.
"Winning for a fourth time would be special if we can pull it off," he said.
Kelsey McClure was special for the Lady Roughers with her game-high 22 points, 12 of that in the third quarter. She sank 7 of 13 shots from the field including a pair of 3-pointers.
Alexus Wilson added 14 for MHS, which led 41-24 at halftime.
Calvert topped the Lady Hornets with 14 points on 4-of-8 shooting from the field.
Hilldale faces McAlester at noon today at the Civic Center for third place.
Large School:
ENID 49, MCALESTER 28 – Enid led from wire to wire as they easily knocked off McAlester in the Large School semifinal at the Civic Center.
The Lady Pacers will face Muskogee for the girls title at 7:30 p.m. today at the Civic Center.
– Nick Hampton
Small School
SPIRO 50, SEQUOYAH 44 – The Lady Indians (6-4) saw their 30-18 halftime lead disappear under Spiro's 12-0 scoring run in falling 50-44 at Muskogee High School's Ron Milam Gymnasium.
"They were stronger than us. It's that simple," Sequoyah coach Don Cox said. "We just didn't finish. We did that against Cascia Hall and that came back on us, just like tonight."
The Lady Indians, who play in the third place game at 9 a.m. today at the Muskogee Civic Center, also had their trouble containing Philicea Mack. She scored a game-high 21 points for the Lady Bulldogs (8-6) in getting 12 of that in the second half.
"We couldn't stop her," Courtney Jones said. "She was tough inside."
Kanisha Hutchinson added 10 points for Spiro. Loren Young was the only player to score in double figures for Sequoyah with 10 points. Jones had nine.
The Lady Indians built the 30-18 halftime lead after a pair of 8-3 scoring runs in the second period. Audrey Ballou scored five points, while Jones and Young had four each in the half.
Spiro faces Oktaha at 4:30 p.m. today at the Civic Center for the championship.
– Kenton Brooks
Small School:
OKTAHA 43, HULBERT 37 – The Lady Riders of Hulbert put a scare into undefeated Oktaha but the Lady Tigers (13-0) prevailed in their semifinal game.
After leading by 13 going into the fourth quarter, Oktaha saw Hulbert whittle that down to a four-point spread, 41-37, with 45 seconds to play. After Jaylie Roper made an alert defensive play with 13 seconds left, Hulbert committed a foul and Kelsey Cantwell hit a pair of free throws to seal the win.
Roper had 10 points for Oktaha while Cantwell, Makayla Baldridge and Lanessa Grayson had eight points each. Tiffany Thompson was the leading scorer for Hulbert (9-3) with 14 points.
The Lady Tigers, ranked No 4 in the state in Class 2A, will defend their Small School title against Spiro at 4:30 p.m. today at the Civic Center.
– Nick Hampton

Chevy Equinox Heater Problems
Hmm, separate fuses, so that means separate electrical wiring line for each. 15 minutes of run time means whatever warmed up. Moisture that froze somewhere, or because it was so cold something contracted or closed, then expanded / opened up when it became warm. The argument against - if temperature related, why didn't the change occur while driving? Air flow keeping whatever cold?
Lotsa speculation there, sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
Well, I guess we now kow how many are out there right now, 59,000. PS.
Sounds like this is your problem.

Doing some shopping?
New Port Richey resident Sherry Stamback has some recommendations for small businesses that folks can check out. She's making suggestions on her Facebook page.
Stamback is an artist and business owner in New Port Richey. She's also known as "Spellbinding Sherry," and she runs "Spellbinding Intuitive Services."
"I do believe that spending money in small businesses is a great investment in community," she said on Facebook. "To the best of my ability I SHOP SMALL (businesses) whenever possible."
It's the holiday season. Black Friday is on the horizon. Small Business Saturday, sponsored by American Express, is this Saturday, Nov. 25.
Stamback shared her wisdom on Small Business Saturday:
Of the 'Small Business Saturday', which a particular credit card company has put themselves behind, I am of two views. First, of course, support small business as often as possible, including this coming Saturday. Second though, I believe the use of said credit card to do so would be sabotaging the entire concept. Use cash or use a debit card, which is only backed up by one's own checking/savings account. Every day is a Small Business day.
Here are some of Stamback's recommendations. Many offer their wares online (she has her own style of writing and formatting we've preserved when it comes to listing her recommendations):

A proposed $45 billion buyout of Time-Warner Cable would add more than 11 million internet subscribers and nearly the same number of cable subscribers to what was already the largest U.S. provider of both -- Comcast.
Big mega-deals are fairly commonplace in today's world, media consolidation has been rapidly occurring since deregulation in the mid nineties, so why is this any different?
Primary races are seeing their first votes come in but before the main events start to surface, Bexar county is being watched by the Republican Party of Texas as a the proving ground for the party's future.
As Texas becomes more diverse -- already a minority majority state -- the whiter of the two parties is hoping to make a competitive bid for San Antonio's vote, thinking as Bexar goes so goes the state.
Many of us may think of chamber choir music as formal and perhaps a bit stuffy. But after speaking to San Antonio Chamber Choir Board President Carl Leafstedt, maybe we've come to that conclusion too quickly. First, Leafstedt reminds us of exactly who they are and what they do.
"The San Antonio Chamber Choir is an organization of professional voices, it's a paid choir of many of the city's top voices" he said. "Our mission is to perform music that is not often performed in South Texas -- very difficult and unusual repertory sometimes, at the very highest levels."
President Barack Obama is in Mexico today for a day of trade talks with the other North American Free Trade Agreement partner nations. But while the expectations are low for the summit, the stakes remain ever high.
This is the seventh time that the three leaders of the NAFTA nations have gathered for a summit. This time Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto is hosting in Toluca with President Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper attending.
The Texas Civil Rights Project, a statewide civil rights group, is putting pressure on law enforcement groups and the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, asking them to create a standard "no-knock" written policy.
The Texas Civil Rights Project released a study this week pointing to a lack of uniformity when comes to police executing "no-knock" warrants -- when police enter a home without knocking for fear that doing so would cause the wanted person to flee or get rid of illegal drugs.
Early voting is underway for the Texas March 4 primaries and many incumbents around the state are seeing tea party-supported challengers -- that includes House Speaker Joe Straus, R-San Antonio.
Straus holds one of the most powerful positions in state government, but before he can be speaker he must win the Republican nomination for state representative.
Straus is challenged by tea party-supported Matt Beebe, who said Straus is not a true conservative.
A grassroots coalition of protestors gathered in front of the Bexar County Courthouse Tuesday to voice opposition to VIA's proposed downtown streetcar system.
Members of LULAC, the Tea Party and other organizations joined with numerous political candidates to protest the county's pursuit of the downtown streetcar system after they said the voters have spoken against it. Light rail has been voted down here, but the streetcar has not been put to a vote.
The San Antonio Botanical Garden and the Blue Star Contemporary Art Museum have teamed up for a project that all started with a pretty simple premise.
"Not everybody in San Antonio is going to be able to come to the museum to see contemporary art, so it's important to go out into the community," said Blue Star Director of Special Projects Bill Fitzgibbons.
So go out they did. They displayed art in a wide variety of places.
"Everything from St. Paul Square to the grounds of UTSA to the Botanical Garden," Fitzgibbons said.
Bexar County Commissioners today presented the Hidalgo Award to San Antonio artist Jesse Treviño, honoring him for a lifetime of service to the community.
Treviño's work can be seen all over San Antonio, from his Virgen de Guadalupe mosaic at Guadalupe Plaza to the recently-completed mural at the historic home of José Antonio Navarro depicting scenes of early life on the West Side.
Bexar County Commissioner Paul Elizondo said Treviño's work is inextricably linked to San Antonio.
Republican Dan Patrick has released a new YouTube video and radio ad challenging San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro to a debate ahead of the March primaries. Castro said he would not debate Patrick until after the March election date.
Part of the $1.8 million dollars that Patrick, a Republican candidate in the lieutenant governor's race, has spent is radio ads that continue to prod Castro to debate him on the topic of immigration.

Read the full excerpt
Listen to an audiobook excerpt from Janet Evanovich's #1 New York Times bestselling Eleven on Top, narrated by Lorelei King. Stephanie Plum is thinking her career as a fugitive apprehension agent has run its course. She's been shot at, spat at, cussed at, fire-bombed, mooned, and attacked by dogs. Time for a change, Stephanie thinks. Time to find the kind of job her mother can tell her friends about without making the sign of the cross. So Stephanie Plum quits.
Janet Evanovich is the author of the Stephanie Plum books, including One for the Money and Sizzling Sixteen, and the Diesel & Tucker series, including Wicked Appetite. Janet studied painting at Douglass College, but that art form never quite fit, and she soon moved on to writing stories. She didn't have instant success: she collected a big box of rejection letters. As she puts it, "When the box was full I burned the whole damn thing, crammed myself into pantyhose and went to work for a temp agency." But after a few months of secretarial work, she managed to sell her first novel for $2,000. She immediately quit her job and started working full-time as a writer. After 12 romance novels, she switched to mystery, and created Stephanie Plum. The rest is history. Janet's favorite exercise is shopping, and her drug of choice is Cheeze Doodles. She and her husband live in New Hampshire, in house with a view of the Connecticut River Valley.

VIDEO: Officers recover after shooting
The FBI said it is looking into Bradley's motive in the incident.
According to records, Bradley was arrested about 20 times between 2007 and 2011 on charges including possession of marijuana and cocaine, dealing cocaine, trespassing, loitering and prowling and resisting arrest. He also was accused of minor traffic infractions and driving with a suspended license, but he was never accused of any violent offense.
The FBI asked that anyone with information about Bradley's activities on Thursday or anyone who witnessed any of the events is asked to call the FBI at 305-944-9101.

Ralph Couey
For The Tribune-Democrat
I've always been fascinated by weather. I grew up in the Midwest – "Tornado Alley" – a million-cubic-mile severe weather laboratory.
During the spring and summer months, I watched, engrossed, as dark, ominous cloud masses boiled up from the southwest. The winds gusted, bending trees and sending loose objects flying. Thunder roared; lightning flashed. Rain gushed from the sky like a waterfall, sometimes accompanied by the clattering of hail. And in the middle of it all, the hair-raising sound of sirens spooling up.
Sure, it was scary. But I couldn't tear myself away.

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/clippers-a ... 06676.html
Looks like we won't get him back next season sadly. If he leaves Doc to take that same role under Steve Kerr that would really upset me. Who can we get to replace him? Tyron Lue getting interest too. This offseason sucks
This was always the worry that Doc's coaches would garner interest from other teams. I just hope that Gentry gets a head coaching job instead of being part of Steve Kerr's staff.
I don't blame him to leave to be the head coach somewhere- but not to take the same role under steve Kerr.
Gentry's under contract with the Clips and it would be foolish for him to accept another associate coach's position. If anything, he'd want to get a head coaching position. That would make more sense.
If Gentry leaves, wonder if Mike Dantoni would consider being our offensive coach. As long as he has NOTHING to do with the defensive side, I think Dantoni could flourish.
Our offense was really good under Gentry, don't know if he was running it or Doc was, but both sides of the ball were really good at times. I hope he doesn't leave, as I mentioned countless times before, Let the players learn the system, MEMORIZE it, and we'll be the next SA spurs.
If I had to take a guess, I'd say an assistant coaches impact drops off significantly after the 1st season the team is together.
I feel as if Gentry already laid the foundation of our offense and now we can just build off of it through Doc.
Again, I'm taking a random guess. I have no idea how important an assistant coach really is.
That being said I will be sad if Gentry is gone.
mike dantoni did pretty good with a bunch of scrubs for the lakers..
his offense might be pretty good for the clippers..
our defense was great..
and if dj finds an offensive post up move...like the hook shot i saw once in the playoffs..
that would be nice..
https://twitter.com/WojYahooNBA/status/ ... 0957555712
looks like Ty Lue is too
If Both Alvin and Ty Lue go. I woulndt mind hiring Lionel Hollins,cand Mike Dantoni for Offense and Defense. Even though that probably won't happen , but Lionel Hollins might.
I know this may sound crazy , but when assistants interview fro jobs its kinda like a slap in the face if they come back as assistants
Lionel Hollins To Interview For Lakers' Coach Opening
Lionel Hollins has emerged as a head coaching candidate for the Los Angeles Lakers and the team plans to interview him later this week, according to sources.
The Lakers have also interviewed Mike Dunleavy Sr. and Byron Scott.
Hollins reached the postseason in each of his final three seasons as coach of the Memphis Grizzlies before being let go due to acrimony between he and the front office.
Like Lakers' management, Kobe Bryant is hopeful that the franchise finds a coach with a proven track record.
Via Adrian Wojnarowski/Yahoo! Sports
http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/23 ... vin-Gentry
Lionell Hollins is the 3rd or 4th best coach in the league if you ask
me. If we didn't have Doc I'd want Hollins for sure.
He doesn't get much credit, but he turned Grizzlies into a defensive
machine, and got the consistent production out of Zach Randolph
that no one thought possible.
He developed Marc Gasol, into DPOY, and will def be in a few all-star
games during his career, when people felt like the lakers "Stole Pau Gasol" basically
insinuating Marc was his useless little brother.
Marc will arguably be better than Pau when it's all said and done.
Best of luck to all of them.
Got the best out of Randolph? Hasn't he always been considered a 20/10 guy most of his career? Under Hollins, his production has gradually declined. Might be his age but saying Hollins did what no one else thought possible his a stretch to say the least. he's always been that player.
No I said his consistency. I've been a Randolph Fan since he came in the league and
have followed him. Not just talking about consistent stats. His buy in, attitude, and defense
have all been problems throughout his career.
Randolph can stuff stats, and has always been able to do so, but being an anchor on a contending
team was something most teams didn't believe he could do.
Just read the reports from when he left portland for NY then to the clippers. With those
stats he should have been getting K-Love treatment (Every team putting in a bid)..
His production is down now because of age.
In what league? Because he's certainly not top 3 in a league with Pop, Carlisle, Doc, Thibs, SVG, Spoelstra, and even new up-and-coming coaches like Hornacek, Stevens, and Joerger.
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/report-lak ... --nba.html
Report: Lakers to interview Gentry
The Los Angeles Lakers are scheduled to interview Alvin Gentry on Wednesday for their head coaching vacancy, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Gentry is an assistant with the Los Angeles Clippers. He also served as an assistant under Mike D'Antoni with the Phoenix Suns. D'Antoni resigned as Lakers coach after the regular season.
Gentry has also been connected with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Utah Jazz and Memphis Grizzlies jobs. However, Dave Joerger decided Sunday to remain the Grizzlies' coach.
The Cavaliers plan to interview Gentry on Friday and the Jazz met with him last week.
NBA.com reported that the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings are interested in hiring Gentry as a lead assistant.
Gentry was head coach of the Phoenix Suns from 2009-13. In the 2009-10 season, he guided the Suns to the Western Conference finals with Steve Kerr as general manager. Kerr was recently hired to coach the Warriors.
WHy can't he just stay with us? Number 1 offense in the league, and you want to go to some rundown like the Lakers or Jazz, stay with the Clippers man, we'll get you a chip together!
I just realized I pasted the wrong headline. I was supposed to post the Gentry one instead. My bad.
Does anyone else think assistant coaches returning after interviewing for head coaching jobs are a slap in the face?
No. If Assistant coaches are still under contract (Gentry is), then they got the blessing from the team, coach, or both to go interview. Bottom line, every assistant coach's dream is to be a head coach.
its just like an apprenticeship eventually they'll take the top job (somewhere)
Well Ty Lue may be out
Like I said, I wouldn't mind Lionel Hollins as a defensive coach like Ty Lue was. I came to like Ty Lue even though his tenure hear was short lived , but again he could remain

Play of the Day: Snowden's New Job at Terminal C
- By Ross Gianfortune
- July 16, 2013
- Leave a comment
The Daily Show and Colbert Report both came back from two-week hiatus Monday night to comment on the news. Stephen Colbert looked at the controversy surrounding the Asiana Air crash last week, focusing on the NTSB "official" that confirmed the racist names a San Francisco TV station showed. The Daily Show spent some time on immigration reform, looking at the House of Representatives' failure at action on the issue and the Republican Party's similar failures with Hispanic voters.
National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden still remains popular on late-night TV. Snowden remains stranded at Sheremetyevo International Airport, having not secured asylum since arriving there and is weighing the possibility of seeking asylum in Russia. The Tonight Show's Jay Leno highlighted the differences in freedom between Russia and the United States, while Late Night's Jimmy Fallon commented on a possible conversation between Russian leader Vladimir Putin and Barack Obama. On CBS, The Late Show's David Letterman thinks Snowden's biding his time driving the little cart to shuttle elderly people between terminals.
Fast forward to 3:00 to see Letterman show one of resigning Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano's greatest moments.

Graphical Applications Using MetaCard
A top program is a very useful thing to have on a multi-tasking operating system like Linux. You can use it to keep track of the CPU and memory usage of all programs running on the system and to detect and kill runaway processes. The character-based top program that comes with Linux systems can be improved. Because it isn't aware of the windowing system, it doesn't go to sleep when the window it is running in is iconified. It would also be nice if you could select a process to kill by clicking on it instead of having top type in its process ID.
Fortunately, Linux has a very simple and elegant way to get process information, and so it's easy to develop a graphical application to display this information using a tool like MetaCard. This article will show you how it's done using MetaCard's scripting language MetaTalk. MetaTalk is a very high level language (VHLL) that supports building complete applications with very little effort. The MetaTalk language has an English-like syntax and is very concise. This makes it easy to learn, yet doesn't sacrifice the power and compactness found in other HVLLs such as Perl. It is very readable, so it's easy for non-expert users to figure out what a script does (which can be much more difficult with languages like Perl).
Each process that is running on a Linux system has a directory in /proc. In that directory are several files containing information on the process. To implement a graphical top program, we're most interested in the information in the file named stat, which contains process run time and memory usage information. We'll also use the file named cmdline that contains the command line used to start up that process.
The stat file contains a single line of information with the fields separated by spaces. Details on the format can be found in the proc man page. Information on this page indicates that on a Linux 1.2 system, words 14 and 15 are the user and system run times, respectively, for a particular process. Word 23 is the process size in bytes, and word 24 is the number of 4KB pages currently in RAM for that process.
There are also files in the /proc system that contain information about the whole system. We'll use the /proc/stat file which contains overall system resource usage. We'll need that information to compute the percentage of CPU usage for each process.
Each time the display is to be updated, a program must do the following:
Read the stat file in the /proc directory.
Find all of the subdirectories in the /proc directory.
Read the stat and cmdline files in each of these directories.
Compute the CPU time for the process by subtracting from the last time.
Save the current CPU usage.
Convert the CPU usage into a percentage of total usage.
Build the list of processes and display it.
Schedule a time to redo the update.
The MetaTalk handler that does all of these things is called updatelist and is shown in Listing 1. This handler, like all MetaTalk message handlers, starts with the word on and the name of the message to be handled. The first few lines of this handler declare all the local variables used in this handler. While not strictly necessary, it's a good idea to declare variables to avoid bugs caused by misspelling variable names. To check your scripts, you can set the MetaCard property explicitVariables, which will flag as an error any variable used before it was declared.
The handler then gets the global system time statistics from the file /proc/stat and subtracts the values from the last time the handler was called. The time statistics are then stored in a local variable declared outside the handler, which works like a "static" variable in C. That is, it retains its value like a global, but can only be referred to within the script, so it doesn't pollute the global name space. This variable, like all MetaTalk variables, can be used as an associative array without special declarations. All you have to do is put an alphanumeric string between the [] (square brackets).
Note the expressions of the form "word x of y". These are called "chunk" expressions and are a very powerful feature of MetaTalk. With them you can access elements of a string individually without having to split up the whole string into an array first. Also note that you can add words together without having to explicitly convert them into numbers first. This saves development time and makes scripts smaller than they would be in lower-level languages.
The readfile function used in the updatelist handler is shown in Listing 2. Like all function handlers, it starts with the keyword function and is used in expressions just like MetaCard built-in functions.
There is one unusual thing about this function. Normally in MetaCard, one would use:
read from file x until eof
because when you specify eof as the terminating condition, MetaCard speeds things up by getting the file size and reading the whole file with a single system call. This doesn't work for /proc files since the stat() system call returns the file lengths as 0 bytes, even though they contain data. Therefore, we must force MetaCard to read the file a byte at a time by specifying empty as the terminating condition.
The readfile function also has to handle the case where the file specified doesn't exist, which can happen if the process exits after the ls command that obtains the directory contents is executed. It also needs to convert nulls (ASCII 0 characters) in the strings to spaces, since some of the files use this character as a delimiter. Note that this requires a scripting language that can handle binary data. MetaTalk has no problem with this, but many other scripting languages do.
The rest of the updatelist handler does steps 2 through 7 in the above recipe. The resulting listing is sorted twice to remedy one of the more annoying characteristics of the character-based top program: the individual processes bounce around the listing unpredictably if they're not using any CPU time. Instead, we'll sort them by process size and then by CPU time which is a more useful way to do it. This is only possible because MetaCard's sort is stable, which means order is preserved on sequential sorts if elements have the same key value.
Finally, the updatelist handler uses the send command to schedule a call back to itself in a few seconds and stores the ID of the timer send creates in a variable. This local variable can be used to cancel the timer using the cancel function. For example, when the application is iconified, we want to stop the processing (See Listing 3).
I snuck in a bit of object-oriented programming in the send command. The message, sent to "me", is the object whose script is currently executing. The time interval is specified as "the update interval of me". This object has a custom property named updateinterval that is persistent, which means it's saved whenever the object is saved. That's why you don't see any initialization of this property in these listings; it's data stored with the stack, not the code.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.
