With that being said "do I think your selfish for not wanting to be around them".... no it is a self defense behavior. Will aliienating yourself from them make it any easier to deal with... no it won't. You do however need time to grieve and heal.
If you "can't accept this sentance you've been given" have you thought about the other options out there such as IVF, Surrogacy, or adoption?
I would also suggest talking to a counselor. Sometimes just talking through your feelings can make a difference and if medication is something he/she thinks would be good for you than there are others aside from Paxil that might work for you but that is something that you would ultimately have to decide on for yourself.
The one thing I can tell you though is it does get better over time and you can be happy again.
Medications do not have to be part of therapy, so please consider it as it may help you. (((hugs)))
It is becoming more gutwrenching for me as people I know flow through life having babies, while I feel like i'm stuck on pause.
When my monthly gift comes I want to scream... and often do into pillows..
I'm relieved to have read your message. I too am having to grieve for the loss of my fertility. My husband and I have been trying unsuccessfully to conceive our own children for 10 years, have been denied for adoption and fostering because of health issues and told by family that they can not accept any child brought into the family by gestational surrogacy. 2 years into our marriage, I started seeing Doctors to discover the reasons as to why we weren't yet with child. Only to be told that I was too fat and needed to lose weight. It got to the point that 4 doctors in as many months said "you have plenty of time to have children, but you will not live to see 30 unless you get the weight off". Does that statement make sense to anyone else? But naively, I believed them. Was advised it was too late to lose with diet and excercise and that Gastric Bypass was my only option. Again, stupid me, I listened. That was 7 years ago...and I was still no closer to having any children. Last August, I started seeing a fertility specialist. At my second visit, he basically said, i'm done. There will NEVER be children for my husband and I. Stated that my fallopian tubes had discinegrated and the tissue had wrapped itself around my ovaries becoming cysts. He also told me that had I seen a specialist sooner, the issue could have been reversed...By this time, my husband and I had already been denied the ability to adopt a child or even foster one due to complications stemming from the gastric bypass (hence my failing health). Needless to say, i've been very angry, upset at everything and trying to hide from the world. I'm no better than a unic. In October, I was diagnosed with severe depression and placed on Fluoxitine as well as assigned to a counselor to work through the grief. If I never was fertile, how am I to grieve for the loss of it? Never the less, here I am. Was advised by my counselor to find a support group to find someone to talk to...I thought thats what the counselor was for?! Sorry, didn't mean to give you my whole life's story, just wanted to say, i'm with you. I know how you feel. I feel the same.
in all... I will end as you did, I see nothing to be happy about nor anything to look forward to.
Your story sounds almost exactly like mine. I came across this thread, now that all of the messages are aged between 1-3 years. I was hoping some of you might still be around. I just had my hysterectomy in October and I'm steadily going downhill. I know some challenges with adoption and surrogacy have made this even worse, but I'm struggling with depression now. We stopped our insurance after they paid for my surgery (it was $1,100 a month due to pre-exsitsting condition). I need counseling but we really can't afford it right now, as we just moved cross country. I contacted a local University with an amazing health care system and I'm hoping to get an appointment with them. It appears that it is free.
If you happen to see this reply, please contact me. I would love to connect and see how you are doing. I will watch for your reply"026.
Take care of yourselves. You're all lovely people and every day I ask myself why good people like us have to go through this. There is no answer and we will never know. That is also part of the process of 'accepting.'
Much love,

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.

Glasgow Daily Times
Elementary students in the Glasgow Independent and Barren County school systems will get a taste of their respective high schools' rivalry in an inter-district competition to raise awareness and funds for heart disease.
Students at the nine elementary schools will be collecting plastic bottle caps and aluminum can tabs starting Monday through Nov. 9, as part of the community events leading up to the Barren County Heart Walk on Nov. 12 at Beaver Trail Park. Candy Wethington, chairman of this year's Heart Walk committee, said the bottle cap drive is one of several ways the Heart Walk committee is trying to make the annual fundraiser for the American Heart Association more than just one day.
"Most people think of (the Heart Walk) as just a one-day event for just a few hours … and we're trying to kind of change that perception and get more involvement in the community," Wethington said.
The Heart Walk has lost momentum in recent years, Wethington said, and the committee this year decided it was time to rejuvenate the event and remind the community how important it is to understand the risks and impacts of heart disease.
"We're just trying to get people fired up about it," Wethington said.
While the caps and tabs that are collected will be turned in to a recycling facility in return for money, Wethington said the competition for the elementary school students really isn't about the money. She's not even sure the items collected will bring in a significant amount of money. But by getting the children involved and creating an event that lasts more than just a week, Wethington said she is hoping it will have a significant impact on the community's awareness of heart disease and interest in the Heart Walk.
"It's more about the interest it will spark than the dollars," Wethington said. "Because if you can spark the interest in just one person, that 'Gosh, maybe I should go out and exercise and eat right,' than that's the important part."
Containers will be at South Green, Highland, Eastern, North Jackson, Red Cross, Park City, Hiseville, Temple Hill and Austin Tracy elementaries for the collection of the caps and tabs, and Wethington will pick up the items and keep track of which district collects the most. With so many more schools in the Barren County district, Wethington said she really wants to get the Glasgow students excited about it.
"We're gonna have to get those Scotties fired up," Wethington said.
For North Jackson principal Anthony Frazier, the competition is not the focus. Heart disease is an area of study in the children's physical education classes, and he knows that the Heart Walk is a worthy health awareness event.
"We want to do whatever is best for our kids and whatever we can do to promote health awareness," Frazier said.
His school is concentrating on encouraging the students to bring in as many as they can, without thinking about the other Barren or Glasgow schools, Frazier said. North Jackson generally has an ongoing tab collection throughout the school year, because the items are often used in fundraisers and the school values recycling, the principal said. This is the first time the school has participated in an activity for the Heart Walk, and Frazier said he is confident his school will do well.
"This is a wonderful staff and a wonderful group of students," Frazier said. "They'll do a wonderful job promoting it and getting it out among the community."
Wethington would love to extend the competition outside of the school districts and into the community, she said. RR Donnelley and Citizens First banks will also serve as collection sites, where employees and customers can drop off caps and tabs for the district they want to support. Any other business is welcome to participate as well, Wethington said, and she would love for the whole community to collect the caps and tabs. Wethington will pick up the items from any location that collects them.
The school district that collects the most tabs and caps will be awarded with a trophy from Mayor Rhonda Trautman, which will be presented at the Heart Walk.
Along with the bottle cap and aluminum can tab competition in the schools, other events leading up to the Heart Walk will include proceeds nights at various restaurants, where a portion of the evening's profits will be donated to the American Heart Association, and a dessert tasting, in which ticket proceeds will go to AHA. Merchants throughout the community will also be selling red hearts, in an effort to "paint the town red" for heart disease.
Anyone who wants to donate bottle caps and can tabs or sign up for a Heart Walk team can call Candy Wethington at (270) 659-4005.

The cost savings are in the use and administration of the storage system that is part of the SAN and provides block data either for the SAN-attached servers or the SAN-attached gateway that provides the remote file system for IP-attached clients. The numbers are highly dependent on the environment but usually a gateway is used for consolidation of many independent file servers to a single, IT managed environment that can result in large administrative cost savings.Randy Kerns

A reason why we see many mental health people in jail or on the streets is because they refuse to take their medicines. If a crime is committed by people who refused to take their medicine, they should be incarcerated.
Everyone loves free things, correct? I wonder if any Oklahomans have heard of Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous or Al-Anon for friends and families of substance abusers? These programs are free to anyone who needs help.
To summarize his commentary, Batchelder attempts an example of giving by using the Marshall Plan used from 1948 to 1952. For those unfamiliar, this program was implemented after World War II to rebuild economies and modernize Europe. The American people were forced to pay extra taxes to rebuild Europe in a war created by Germany. This is not a matter of principle, and those who can contribute "their fair share" should pay more, as Batchelder stated.
He wants to have taxes raised in a recession and then refers to giving by explaining Americans freely "giving" their tax money to Europe when the government decided this for the people. Is he suggesting raising taxes to give more to mental health and substance abuse programs that already receive millions of dollars? Who knows?
But the next time you see a smoker, thank them for giving to health care.

NEW! Health Impact Assessment draft (PDF) by the Denver Department of Environmental Health
The report talks about how the upcoming Globeville and Elyria-Swansea Neighborhood Plans can affect health. It provides a snapshot of health in Globeville and Elyria-Swansea today. It also talks about a range of topics — quality of the environment; how roads connect and affect getting around; access to goods and services; community safety; and mental well-being — and makes recommendations about how the neighborhood plans can improve these aspects of life.
Several environmental impact statement (EIS) processes for major new transportation have been completed or are currently being conducted in the area by other parties:
The Elyria Neighborhood Association has created vision plan (PDF) to reconnect adjacent neighborhoods, leverage transit-oriented development, promote sustainable infill development that increases livability, and encourage a walkable mixed-use community.
A new small area plan for the Elyria and Swansea neighborhoods was started in 2007 as part of a grant awarded by the US EPA to the Healthy Air for Northeast Denver (HAND) partnership, a collaboration between Groundwork Denver and the City. This funding was used to bring consulting assistance to the planning process to enhance public participation and to conduct analyses beyond the usual scope of the City's small area plans.
The City and County of Denver began a process to plan for change in the areas surrounding future transit stations. In 2006, the city completed a Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Strategic Plan that identified a need for land use planning for the National Western Stock Show station area on RTD's future North Metro commuter rail corridor. The City and County of Denver along with RTD examined the station location as part of the North Metro Draft Environmental Impact Statement. The City sought public input to help select the station location and as a result of this process, RTD is recommending the station be located at the National Western Stock Show. The City and County of Denver's Community Planning and Development Department started a planning effort to develop a station area plan for the half-mile area surrounding the future NWSS station. Public input and concepts, linked below, from the NWSS station area planning effort will be integrated into the larger neighborhood planning effort.
Goals established during the NWSS planning effort:

Drivers along 90th Street may have noticed something different next to the roadway.
Numerous fire hydrants are wrapped up in orange plastic.
That's due to the Metropolitan Utilities District clearing out a main line underneath 90th Street.
These hydrants are attached to a water main in 90th St. that was taken out of service.
The hydrants are bagged so the fire department knows they are not operable. The main was taken out of service for an inspection.
The project is expected to last about two weeks.
A spokesman with the Omaha Fire Department said hydrants in that part of town are 300 feet apart and that not all of the hydrants were taken out of service.
The spokesman assured Channel Six News that there was sufficient hydrant coverage in the area should the need arise.

Josh Bersin, Contributor
I analyze corporate HR, talent management and leadership.
Now that LinkedIn has demonstrated the huge opportunity to build social tools for corporate recruiting, the startup wars have begun.
Dozens of companies are now launching tools to help recruiters find candidates and candidates find jobs. And in the middle of this, another set of startups is trying to automate the "part-time" work environment, enabling people without full-time work to find part-time gigs.
The recruiting market is very large (we estimate over $140 billion is spent by US corporations alone, to say nothing of all the money spent by candidates trying to find jobs), so there is a lot of opportunity for disruption and new businesses.
Think about it this way. Every year, regardless of the economy, around 40 million people change jobs in the US alone. There is a huge need for tools to make this whole matching game easier.
Let me highlight a few of these exciting young companies:
Path.to and Bright: These companies try to mine your social graph and "find jobs" for you. So far they're just getting started so the matching isn't very good yet, but the potential is big. Think e-harmony for the job seeker.
Identified.com: a new "gamification" type of job search system which gives job candidates a "score" based on their social connections, experiences, and perceived skills. A "data science" company which hopes employers will be able to use this "score" to assess candidates (just received $21M in capital).
Recmnd.me is a "recommendation building" tool for candidates, it lets you promote and create more recommendations through your social network.
Smarterer helps you as a job candidate prove your skills by taking assessments, helping candidates and recruiters better find validated skills (LinkedIn is working on this).
Zao is building a system to create referrals through your social network, enabling you or employers to give referral fees to anyone who suggests you or others for a position.
Gild, a fascinating new company that actually locates and evaluates your code (if you're a computer programmer) and sends evaluation scores to prospective employers. More to come from these folks.
TalentBin: Gives recruiters an intelligent tool to find people through their social graph. Kind of the opposite of Path.to and Bright.
Startwire gives candidates updates on the status of their applications. It's like a "Tracking System" for all your job applications. Not a bad idea, considering the fact that over 70% of all applications get no response at all.
Jobvite: A fast-growing company which delivers referral recruiting tools, applicant tracking, and advertisement management tools for recruiters. Gooodjob is a startup building a similar offering.
In the assessment market there are dozens. EmployInsight is a new company which collects candidate data and offers in-line assessments online, attempting to build up a global skills database.
Bullhorn: one of the biggest end-to-end social talent acquisition solutions, focused on the staffing industry (recently acquired by Vista Equity).
Jobs2Web: (acquired by SuccessFactors) a candidate marketing and analysis system that helps recruiting organizations manage the recruitment marketing process.
SmartRecruiters: a no-cost (yes, free) cloud-based applicant tracking and social recruiting system which lets recruiters post jobs on Facebook with the click of a button.
LinkedIn Talent Pipeline: a new offering from LinkedIn that lets recruiters manage the end-to-end interactions of all their candidates (including social activity) throughout the recruitment process.
BraveNewTalent: Creates professional communities and entices candidates to find employers (and vice-versa) by matching their interests and needs. TalentCircles and SelectMinds have similar offerings.
GigWalk, Freelancer, TaskRabbit, eLance, Odesk: Contract work systems that help people post their skills and project managers look for skilled people for project work. These systems are becoming location-aware so many run on a mobile device and can show you local gigs automatically.
ViewsOnYou and Glassdoor: ViewsOnYou lets you do a 360 assessment of yourself and match yourself against others and potential employers. Glassdoor does the opposite – it forces employers to do a 360 whether they like it or not (employees and former employees rate the employer).
Work4Labs, Tweetmyjobs, Tweetajob, and many others help recruiters rapidly use Facebook or Twitter to post and tweet job openings to communities and audiences. Work4Labs (Work4Us) is a complete Facebook application platform that lets recruiter build a Facebook recruiting site, similar to the "career pages" you can develop on LinkedIn.
HireVue and InterviewStream, TaketheInterview, companies that make it possible for recruiters to interview you via video you capture on your phone or PC.
Josh, great collection of the Social Recruiting space!
I want to add www.SortBox.co to this mix. SortBox provides a branded, one click shareable (twitter/FB/G+/Linkedin) job page, together with an applicant collection and review system where companies can review all applicant info in one glance, like image references and portfolios. Especially useful for creative recruiting which is in our DNA.
This is combined with a simple applicant tracking system with data on referrals, source of candidate and hiring status. We just launched v2 this week and it's free to try.
Our motto is Hire the Person. Not the Resume. http://www.sortbox.co
Add www.Namegeneration.net to the list. We go beyond aggregation of social data from more then just the top social sites and also bring true recruiting process into they mix by adding generated emails based on common naming conventions when other forms of contact might not be found. This practice of building emails based on a person name and current company has been performed manually for years by recruiters, but Namegeneration.net is now the first to automate the process.
Great post, would like to add in www.yolpme.com to that list. We have just released a social connection feature that connects your social connections to roles available, already seeing some very positive lift in traffic and referrals sent
Jobbook: Social recruiting at its best, and one of Forbes Top 75 career sites! Jobbook is online dating for jobs. Set filters, and receive a sorted list of matches within minutes… best of all that list is absolutely FREE!!! You also get a beautiful white label company profile and job post, featuring photos, and videos, allowing you to showcase your HR Brand!

NH Catholics give $165,500 for Hurricane Sandy relief
Bishop Peter A. Libasci called for a special collection on Nov. 10-11, 2012, 11 days after the hurricane devastated communities from the Caribbean to the mid-Atlantic.
Funds collected will be distributed to Catholic Charities USA, Catholic Relief Services, and the Diocese of Rockville Center on Long Island.
Libasci said, "Like so many, I was shaken by the destruction in New Jersey, New York and on Long Island. Some of the areas affected were places where I grew up and where I served as a priest and bishop, so this disaster is particularly painful for me to witness. The people of New Hampshire are always quick to respond to a need, either here in our state or during times of disasters. I am so grateful to those who have come together to offer what they can to help rebuild. Your generosity and the power of your prayers are added to millions of others around the world and will make a real difference in the lives of those affected by Hurricane Sandy."

Found January 24, 2013 on Fox Sports North:
PLAYERS: John Wall, Ricky Rubio, Randy Wittman, Kevin Love, Alexey Shved, Nikola Pekovic, Rick Adelman, Derrick Williams
TEAMS: Washington Wizards, Minnesota Timberwolves
TEAMS: Washington Wizards, Minnesota Timberwolves
The Washington Wizards have found some stability since John Wall returned from injury. Getting Ricky Rubio back hasn't had that effect for the injury-plagued Minnesota Timberwolves. Back from their western swing, Wall and the Wizards will try to extend their season-high home winning streak to four on Friday night when the Timberwolves try to get on track with the first of two straight against the Eastern Conference's two worst teams. Since making his season debut seven games ago following a stress injury to his left kneecap, Wall is averaging 14.0 points and 6.9 assists off the bench as the league-worst Wizards (9-31) slowly work him back into game shape. That cautious approach has worked so far, as Washington has won four times since the former No. 1 overall pick returned. The Wizards are scoring 98.9 points per game on 46.0 percent shooting with Wall, improving their league-low averages to 90.9 and 41.7. "The last eight games we've built a good, solid round of basketball, and we've got to continue to build on that and not take any steps backward, moving forward when we get back from the (2-3) trip," coach Randy Wittman said after that stretch ended with a 92-88 loss to Utah on Wednesday. Washington begins a three-game homestand with a chance to win four straight in the nation's capital for the first time since the last four of 2010-11. The Timberwolves (17-22), meanwhile, have lost their last five on the road by an average of 15.0 points. They've dropped eight of 10 overall since Kevin Love re-injured his right hand, and they've played the last three without point guard Alexey Shved (left ankle) and center Nikola Pekovic (right quadriceps). Shved and Pekovic did not travel with the team, which also plays at Charlotte on Saturday. The loss of Shved leaves few backcourt options for Terry Porter, who has led the team to a 2-7 record since coach Rick Adelman left to be with his sick wife. Rubio wasn't Porter's choice for the entire fourth quarter of Wednesday's 91-83 loss to Brooklyn, and the Spaniard didn't hide his displeasure about J.J. Barea staying in the game. Rubio slightly backed off those comments after Thursday's practice, but added: "I always want to play, even when I don't deserve it." Rubio returned to the starting lineup four games ago, but his play in 14 games since returning from a torn ACL and LCL doesn't scream for more playing time. He's shooting 24.6 percent and averaging 4.2 points and 5.0 assists. Rubio missed a four-game stretch from Dec. 29-Jan. 5 with back issues, and he's clearly not 100 percent after admitting this week there is still pain in his surgically repaired knee. Teammates, though, respect his competitive nature. "He wants to play," forward Derrick Williams said Thursday. "We were both in that situation (in the fourth quarter) yesterday. You've just got to keep your head high, stay focused. We've got more games to win." Rubio came off the bench Jan. 8, 2012, and finished with 13 points, a career-high 14 assists and six rebounds in a 93-72 victory that ended the team's seven-game skid at Washington. Wall missed seven of 10 shots and scored 10 points in that contest as the Wizards shot a season-low 34.5 percent at home. Washington set season highs for points and shooting percentage (56.1) in its last game in the nation's capital, a 120-91 victory over Orlando on Jan. 14.

Patent pending for new global test security measure for the TOEFL® and TOEIC® tests
PRINCETON, N.J., May 8, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- ETS today announced that a major new security enhancement, designed to reinforce the position of the company's TOEFL® Program as one of the most secure English-language tests in the world, has been rolled out worldwide. Biometric voice identification, one of the most significant advances in security in the testing sector in many years, was rolled out on February 8, 2014, in all 130 countries where students take the TOEFL test every year.
The TOEFL Program began piloting the software, which is designed to identify suspected impersonations, in May 2012, and the software has now been rolled out on a global scale as part of the screening process for all TOEFL test takers worldwide. ETS currently has a patent pending on the use of biometric voice identification software for this purpose, and the TOEFL test is the only English-proficiency test using this advanced security measure worldwide.
"The pilot phase of the biometric voice identification software proved it to be a major asset in identifying suspected impersonations and enabling ETS to cancel those scores before they were reported," commented David Hunt, Senior Vice President, Global Education and Workforce Division at ETS. "Security is a top priority at ETS, and we are proud to have this best-in-class security measure in place for our TOEFL test. Valid scores depend on secure administrations, and this powerful new tool will help to ensure just that."
The sophisticated biometrics voice identification software program was developed by a company that provides similar solutions for organizations in the banking, law enforcement and healthcare industries. ETS has also elevated the prominence of its whistleblower hotline to its home page to encourage anyone suspicious about fraudulent activity to make their concerns known to the company.
"The use of biometric voice identification technology is yet one more example of why we at The University of Texas at Austin consider the TOEFL iBT® the best measure of English proficiency available today," says Robert Watkins, Assistant Director Graduate and International Admissions Center at UTA.
ETS plans to extend biometric voice identification to cover the TOEIC® Program this year. More information regarding the TOEFL test's prevention and detection security processes is available at www.ets.org/toefl/institutions/about/security.
About ETS

In our recent press release, "Better Business Bureau Names 'Top Ten Scams" of 2012' we refer to the mystery shopping scams as the 'Top Employment Scam' because of the prevalence of scammers offering bogus mystery shopping jobs. We also mentioned that there are legitimate mystery shopping opportunities through The Mystery Shopping Providers Association www.mysteryshop.org, but we thought it might be helpful to have an executive at Shopper's View, one of the BBB's A+ accredited businesses address this topic for us.
Lindsey Dahl, the Director of Operations at Shopper's View has this to say about mystery shopping:
"Mystery shopping (or secret shopping) is a legitimate business and an extremely valuable tool for analyzing a company's customer service skills and more. Far better than customer surveys, mystery shopping companies use shoppers to provide the client with a clear picture, a "birds-eye view," of a typical customer's shopping experience.
Our company, Shoppers' View (Grand Rapids, Michigan), operates nationwide and evaluates banks, restaurants, retail stores and much more. We hire independent contractors to report on everything from the moment they pull in to the parking lot: curb appeal (cleanliness outside), signage, proper greeting, upselling, friendliness, closing, etc.
Unfortunately, for the many legitimate mystery shopping companies such as ours, these scammers give the whole industry a black eye as far as the general public is concerned. This is particularly true for those who have fallen prey to a scam.
It is important for consumers to know that mystery shopping can be a legitimate way to make some extra money.
To avoid scams, please also know that:
- You do not have to pay to find jobs.
- It can be a FUN job … but it is a job!
- You will not make hundreds of dollars a day or even in a week. For most, mystery shopping is a part-time career.
- You must be able to follow very detailed instructions.
- You must have a good memory, be good with details and have good writing skills.
- You usually do not get paid in advance. Usually it is 4-6 weeks before you are paid.
- You will not get the prime jobs (cruises, hotels, casinos) until you have a lot of experience, and then there is a lot of competition."
Furthering these tips, the BBB suggests that consumers look for reputable firms that:
- Qualify and train mystery shoppers to perform specific evaluations;
- Enjoy a good reputation with their clients and shoppers, and
- Do not charge a fee to complete an application.
To steer clear of get-rich-quick offers, the BBB advises mystery shopper applicants to:
- Ignore claims that you will make big profits easily. Mystery shopping will not make you rich; at best it provides part-time income.
- Avoid falling for claims that "guarantee" a position, without training.
- Be cautions of unsolicited e-mails offering "work-from-home."
- Never pay money up-front. A legitimate mystery shopping service will not charge money for materials, training or recruiting.
- Obtain the name of the company and check the business out with the BBB, local consumer protection agency, and state attorney general.
To find the legitimate companies, review job listings, and to get certified as a Mystery Shopper (required by many companies), sign up with the Mystery Shopping Providers Association (MSPA) at www.mysteryshop.org. You can also check out Lindsey's company at www.shoppersview.com."

ALBANY -- A group of Democratic and Republican district attorneys from around the state on Tuesday called for sweeping new gun control laws in the wake of the Connecticut school shootings.
The District Attorneys Association of the State of New York called for a comprehensive approach to controlling gun crimes –- instead of the piecemeal approach being taken at the negotiating table in Albany by Democratic and Republican lawmakers. GOP lawmakers have accused Democrats of not wanting to do anything about crimes involving illegal guns, while Democrats say GOP lawmakers are blocking efforts to restrict sales of assault-style weapons.
Cyrus R. Vance Jr., the Manhattan district attorney and president of the statewide prosecutors group, said prosecutors across the state back an approach that will do everything from imposing mandatory consecutive sentences for crimes committed with firearms to banning the sale of high-capacity magazine guns.
Here is the group's specific proposals from a press release issued earlier today:
Mandatory Consecutive Sentences for Crimes That Include Firearms. When preventive efforts fail, there must be appropriate penalties for people who commit violent crimes or traffic in narcotics while armed with a firearm. Criminal activity becomes exponentially more volatile when firearms are present. Amending the existing Criminal Use of a Firearm law (PL §265.09) to provide for a mandatory consecutive five-year sentence when a person commits a violent felony or drug trafficking offense while in possession of a firearm would go a long way toward eliminating gun violence on our streets. A written proposal to amend this law is part of DAASNY's proposed anti-gang package, a copy of which is enclosed.
High-Capacity Magazine Ban - State. A ban on high-capacity magazines, which allow those bent on mass murder to fire countless rounds without pausing for a moment to reload, would be likely to lessen the devastation involved in tragedies like the recent Sandy Hook massacre. In New York, possessing a large capacity ammunition-feeding device is a class D felony (PL §265.02(8)), but only if such devices were manufactured after September 13, 1994. New York should eliminate this exception.
Statewide Periodic Reapplication. Drivers in New York State are required to renew their licenses periodically, in recognition of the serious responsibility that comes with driving a car on our highways. There is no good reason why gun licenses should not also have to be renewed. In New York City, Westchester County, Nassau County, and Suffolk County, gun permit holders are already required to appear in person periodically to renew their licenses. Unfortunately, in New York's other counties, firearm licenses are valid for life, regardless of any change in the fitness of the permit holder. The Legislature should harmonize the statewide reapplication requirements to conform to existing renewal requirements.
Microstamping. Microstamping is an inexpensive and effective tool to solve – and deter – gun trafficking and other crimes by etching a unique code onto the firing pin and breech face of a semi-automatic handgun. This code is then transferred onto the cartridge casing each time the gun is fired, which allows law enforcement to quickly determine the gun's purchaser. Both DAASNY and the New York State Law Enforcement Council have long supported microstamping.
Mental Health – Authorized Firearm Revocation. New York State law does not expressly empower courts to remove firearms or revoke the firearms licenses of people who have been found mentally incapacitated or ordered to mental treatment or commitment. Granting courts the power to revoke the license and order the surrender of firearms owned by one suffering from a mental disorder is a powerful crime prevention tool that would save lives.
Mental Health – Kendra's Law. Kendra's Law, enacted in 1999 in recognition that some people suffer from serious mental health issues that require oversight, is ripe for expansion in several ways. Orders of treatment should be extended from six months to one year. Discharge evaluations should be undertaken to establish treatment plans. And when people relocate to a new county, the treatment order should also move to that new county. Finally, one way to use available mental health services more effectively is to expand the list of those authorized to file a petition with the court to include many stakeholders in the criminal justice system who are in a position to seek appropriate treatment under Kendra's Law for covered individuals. Current law is limited to Probation and Parole officers.
Stockpiling Prevention. To reduce both stockpiling and trafficking of firearms, buyers should be prohibited from buying large caches of weapons at one time. Reasonable limitations should be put on the number of weapons that can be bought or sold in a finite period of time.
Gun Show Loophole - State. New York State has already taken steps to require that background checks be performed at gun shows. To cover all gun sales, the background-check requirement should be extended to private transactions conducted outside the purview of gun shows, such as sales at antique or pawn shops.
Home or Place of Business Exception. Possession of an illegal loaded firearm in New York is currently a class C violent felony, unless such possession was in the person's home or place of business. This minor exception is justified because the threat to public safety is somewhat diminished when the purpose of the possession is for the defense of one's home or place of business. But in cities like New York or Syracuse, where many people live in multiple dwellings, current law does not make clear that the "home" is limited to one's apartment and not the common areas of a building. Too often in our cities, criminals roam the hallways and commit violent crimes. Judges and juries should have clear guidance that in single houses, the entire structure is the "home," while in multiple dwellings, the home ends at the front door to the individual unit.
Ammunition Sales. As anyone who has recently purchased cold medicine knows, buyers are required to provide identification so that sellers can record covered transactions. Large quantities of aggregate purchases are a red flag that the purchaser might be manufacturing dangerous drugs. DAASNY believes that if we can do this for cold medicine, we should do it for bullets.
Federal Proposals:
With respect to federal proposals, District Attorneys across the State are already on record regarding some of the most important. We note these here.
Gun Show Loophole - Federal. H.R.591 (2012) would require Brady criminal background checks on all gun sales at gun shows nationwide. That means that so-called "occasional sellers" would need to abide by the same rules as licensed sellers, including conducting background checks. This would solve the existing problem that is rampant at gun shows – unlicensed private sellers are actually in compliance with the law when they sell firearms to convicted felons, domestic violence abusers, and the dangerously mentally ill, even though those categories of people are themselves not allowed to own weapons. A simple background check would thwart their efforts.
High-Capacity Magazine Ban - Federal. The federal high-capacity magazine ban, enacted in 1994, expired in 2004. A simple and straightforward ban on these militarized weapons should be enacted in this Congressional session.
National Right to Carry Reciprocity Act. H.R. 822 (2012) would require every state to honor a permit to carry a concealed weapon from any other state, overriding the laws of New York and many other states. If this bill were to become law, individuals who are not eligible for a permit in New York would be afforded the right to carry a concealed weapon while they are in New York solely because they hold a permit from their home state. Without any discretion or oversight, New York would be forced to allow an individual to carry a concealed weapon in clear violation of New York State law. DAASNY strongly opposes this bill.

The key to PSOLA is the determination and utilization of pitch markers in the original signals. The idea is that these markers should be equally spaced throughout the signal (at intervals equal to the detected fundamental period), but also that they should be placed at a location for which the signal has a maximum value (a peak). These two constraints are often in conflict, especially since our assumption that the fundamental period is constant for the entire window is not entirely true. As a result, following the highest peak in the signal from period to period may require relaxing the requirement that the markers be exactly equally spaced. On the other hand, if we only follow the maximum peak without regard for the fundamental period, our markers no longer have any regard for the pitch of the window and are not useful.
In order to strike this compromise, we created a matrix where each column contains two periods of the signal and the center row starts at 0 and increments by one period each column. Then we used a dynamic path finding algorithm (created by Vladimir Goncharoff and Patrick Gries from the University of Chicago in Illinois) to find a path that went through the maximum peak as much as possible, but which did not exceed a given slope as it went through the matrix. Since a slope of 0 (horizontal line) means the markers are equally spaced, the slope is the factor that is adjusted to strike the compromise between following peaks and maintaining periodicity. Empirically, we found a suitable value of this slope to be around 4. In the diagram below these pitch marks are labeled as mi-1, mi and mi+1.
|Pitch Markers across windows
The matrix described is pictured graphically in the top graph of the figure above (cyan is zero, dark blue is negative, red is positive). Below that is a matrix that shows the two periods around these pitch markers (found by this path), which the pitch marker itself in the center of each column. As you can see, the peaks seem to move across the matrix in a straight line, meaning that when we overlap and add these segments, the peaks will be added on top of one another. This reduces phase problems with constructive and destructive interference between the peaks (which is why the algorithm is pitch-synchronous).
Having marked the boundaries of the regions to extract from the original signal, their new locations need to be defined (where they will end up in the output signal). A vector of new pitch markers is created, which begins with the first old pitch marker (found above), which is the phase offset, and then equally spaced at intervals equal to the desired fundamental period. For each new marker, the closest marker in the original signal is found and the two periods centered around that marker are Hanning windowed and copied to the output signal, centered about the new marker. Depending on whether the frequency is being raised or lowered, some pitch markers in the original signal may be used more than once, or not at all. The result of all this is a signal whose waveform retains the shape of the original, but has a shorter or longer period (depending on the amount of shift and in which direction). Hence, the pitch is shifted without altering the qualities of the voice that produced the sound.

Create a Mini PC or Server with Olimex's Olinuxino A13/A13Micro
Olimex is a Bulgarian company known for its innovative hobbyist products. It has a wide array of microcontroller-based products, ranging from the small Arduino clones to the very able system that has the Allwinner A13 microcontroller as its brain. In this article, I describe how you can create a working Linux system for the Olinuxino A13 and Olinuxino A13Micro from scratch.
Let's begin by obtaining and compiling the kernel, creating the U-Boot system, preparing the root filesystem and getting the necessary packages to create a comfortable minimal computing environment. At the end of this article, I also explain how to install a compact desktop environment.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) for my build system. Any Debian-based system users should be able to follow the instructions in this article with relative ease. Before you begin, you should create a directory under your home directory to contain all your work. I am going to call mine "A13System".
What Are Arm and eabihf?
As you progress further into the article, you will encounter the terms Arm and eabihf more than once. Let me clarify those terms in order to avoid confusion with other terms that you might encounter if you decide to go further into the world of cross-compilation.
Arm is a general name for a family of microcontroller architectures designed by ARM Holdings, a British company. You can find Arm microcontrollers inside most portable modern gadgets, ranging from mobile phones, Nintendo DS portable game consoles to Apple iPhone and Apple TV. ARM Holdings does not manufacture these microcontrollers; rather, it licenses the designs to other companies. These companies then add their own "secret recipes" into the designs and then manufacture and sell the finished microcontrollers. This is why there are so many variants of Arm architecture and so many companies that produce Arm microcontrollers.
EABI stands for Embedded Application Binary Interface. It specifies the low-level conventions for embedded software application. When it comes to Arm microcontrollers, they come in many sizes, ranging from very small to large. The smaller variants don't have the necessary memory or power to process floating-point computation on the hardware itself, thus making it necessary to do it by software. These variants are called Arm soft float. There are other variants that can process the floating-point calculation by hardware, like vector floating point (vfp). These two EABIs (soft float and vfp) are what is usually known as armel. A newer EABI that targets the higher end of Arm microcontrollers with more efficient floating-point instructions than vfp is called hard float, thus armhf.
Olimex's A13WiFI, A13 and A13Micro boards are powered by the Allwinner A13 Arm microcontroller, which are based on ARMv7 design. ARMv7, as with the newer ARMv8, fully supports armhf.
You can find all the necessary URLs for file downloads and other information in the Resources section of this article. You need to install the following programs before you can commence the build process:
gcc-4.6-arm-linux-gnueabihf (the version might vary from one distro to another; the latest I came across at the time of this writing is version 4.7).
debian-archive-keyring (if you decide later that you want to use Debian rootfs).
Once you finish installing the prerequisites, you then
need to create several softlinks in the same directory where
gcc-4.6-arm-linux-gnueabihf is installed (in my case, it is located in
/usr/bin). Use the
which command to find the installation directory:
$ which arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.6
Next, create softlinks for arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-4.6, arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcov-4.6 and arm-linux-gnueabihf-cpp-4.6:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-4.6 \
$ sudo ln -s \
/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcov-4.6 \
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-cpp-4.6 \

Genre fans will no doubt remember Monster Magnet for their memorable musical contributions to films like The Matrix, Urban Legend, Beowulf and Bride of Chucky, but this New Jersey-based unit is also one of the prime movers in the "stoner rock" movement – and nearly a quarter-century after their formation, the band's influence on hard rock and metal can still be heard from up-and-coming artists today. Conversely, much of Monster Magnet's own creative spark comes from the world of horror and science fiction, and they cite grindhouse cinema, classic sci-fi novels, comic books and the beloved B-movies of Roger Corman among their inspirations. Just one look at the supreme retro-style promotional art for their tenth album Last Patrol reveals this dedication... you can totally imagine this poster on display beneath a 42nd Street grindhouse marquee, say around 1981 or so:
Last Patrol is also a callback to the band's psychedelic rock roots, according to MM's founder and frontman Dave Wyndorf: "The songs are a kind of Space-Noir," he explains, "tales of cosmic revenge, peaking libidos, alienation and epic strangeness. It's a weird trip through the back alleys of a dark, retro-future, which not by coincidence very much resembles my own life." Although the lyrical imagery seems to spring from the pages of a vintage pulp novel, the songs on Last Patrol also represent a personal reflection for Wyndorf, who set out to capture his emotional state during a week-long marathon writing session. There's also a distinctly old-school sonic vibe to this record, thanks in large part to Dave's decision (along with co-producer Phil Caivano) to employ mostly vintage instruments and recording equipment. The result is a literal blast from the past, combining sweeping space-rock nostalgia with a spooky, retro-futuristic theme.
While it's not as consistently heavy as their classic releases like Powertrip or Dopes to Infinity (my personal fave among their early material), Patrol benefits from an expansive, cinematic sound, while still retaining the organic textures of a live recording... and there are still plenty of ground-shaking moments to remind you just how heavy Wyndorf and company can bring it, with hearty helpings of thick, satisfying riffs. The album kicks off with the ominous, deathly-dark chords of "I Live Behind the Clouds," forming a minimalist background for Wyndorf's resonant melodic vocals before expanding the canvas in the hypnotic title track, which recalls the potent melodic psychedelia that the band pioneered on their first record Spine of God. They follow up with a suitably spacey cover of "Three Kingfishers" by '60s folk-rock icon Donovan, which fits the old-school Monster Magnet dynamic like a glove.
While those tracks tend to favor majestic harmonies and thick, enveloping layers of sound, there's still plenty of heaviness to be heard: the high-energy cut "Mindless Ones" was a wise choice for the album's leading single, with its consistent intensity, faster tempo and crushing riffage (as demonstrated in the energized music video below), while the band opts for a gritty garage-rock approach to "Hallelujah" and a tight, bluesy groove on "The Duke (of Supernature)." But they truly go for broke in the ultra-heavy "End of Time," which serves as the record's musical climax, before the chillier coda "Stay Tuned" – the title of which is presumably a reassurance to fans that Wyndorf and company still have more cosmic realms to explore.
Last Patrol is a solid synthesis of the elements that Monster Magnet refined back in the early '90s and their more mainstream, modern metal sound – and the two styles meet in the middle without sacrificing energy or musical bite. While it doesn't break much new creative ground, it's an effective fusion of everything this band does best (with Wyndorf's vocals in particularly fine form), and their more overt embracing of dark cosmic themes helps to accentuate their musical strengths.
Monster Magnet are about to embark on their first North American tour in over ten years, hitting nearly two dozen venues beginning on November 14th, so be sure to visit their official site for the list of venues and ticket info... but first, crank the video for "Mindless Ones" below!

Last weekend, a 25-year-old woman fatally fell from a party bus returning from a concert at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View.
Natasha Noland and another young woman, both highly inebriated, allegedly began physically fighting and Noland fell from the bus and died after the bus ran over her. All the passengers--some underage-- on the bus driving on Highway 17 in Los Gatos were too drunk to recall exact details, but the bus driver was sober, .
Under California law, party bus owners and drivers do not assume responsibility for their passengers, in contrast to limousine companies that do.
Assemblyman Jerry Hill introduced his bill, AB 45, a year and a half ago to hold bus drivers and owners (in addition to limousine companies) accountable for under-age drinking.
The measure has passed in the Assembly and is working its way through the Senate.
Should bus drivers be held accountable for their passengers' behavior? Share your thoughts with us in the comment section.
