Vaccines have saved millions of lives as well as improved the quality of life and yet there are those who, whether through abject ignorance or dogmatism, would bring back the ravages of disease. Vocal anti-vaccine propagandists have already fostered outbreaks in the US and UK, as gullible parents choose to leave their children unprotected. Religious dogmatists have long been among those leading the charge against the advancements of science and medicine, hiding behind the 'right' to practice their faith
Texas pastor Kenneth Copeland is just another in a long-line of benighted religionists who encourage parents to ignore facts putting at risk not only children in their care, but all of us because of epidemiological considerations. >Preventable diseases are on the rise including a new outbreak of measles and nearly 2,000 confirmed cases of pertussis have affected Texans, with two infant fatalities. All preventable. All inexcusable.
This is not just a fight against dogmatic ignorance, this is literally a fight for the lives of innocents. Please join me along with my foundation in the battle to stop this harmful propaganda against vaccines. Donate now and do not remain silent on this issue.

To The Editor:
A recent article notes that immigrants are helping sustain U.S. population levels, but does not mention the positive contributions of those immigrants ("Immigrant Influx," January 7). Without immigration and immigrants, the historic economic boom of the past decade might not have happened, and taxpayer-funded retirement systems would be hard-pressed. The article also ignores data showing that recent immigrants are better educated, are learning English and buying homes sooner than earlier arrivals.
During the 1990s, the U.S. had the largest, most-sustained economic boom in history, the lowest unemployment rate in nearly 40 years, and the lowest interest rates in nearly half-a-century. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan and other economists say immigrants are helping to sustain this historic economic growth. Census Director Kenneth Prewitt recently said that Social Security and Medicare would be in much worse financial shape without those immigrants, since without them the U.S. would have more retirees receiving benefits than younger people working and contributing to the systems.
Data complied by the Census Bureau reveals that the immigrants of the 1990s are different from those who came here earlier: they are catching up educationally much more rapidly than even government demographers thought possible (in fact, many have advanced and intermediate education); they are learning English at a faster rate; nearly 67% are homeowners; and many more are marrying U.S. citizens.
In short, immigrants are helping our economy and our taxpayer funded retirement systems. They are learning our language and customs faster than previous immigrants, are better educated than earlier groups of immigrants, and are homeowners.
Sincerely yours,

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) - A Vermont company has signed a deal to build a natural gas pipeline under Lake Champlain to transport fuel to a New York paper plant.
Vermont Gas says the line to the International Paper mill in Ticonderoga, N.Y., is to be completed within three years.
The deal is costing the plant $70 million. It will need state and federal permits.
Vermont Public Radio reports Vermont Gas had already planned to run a line south from Chittenden County to Middlebury. Company spokesman Steve Wark said the Champlain project means Vermont Gas can extend the line further south sooner than planned.
International Paper spokeswoman Donna Wadsworth said the switch to natural gas will reduce fuel costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The company now burns fuel oil.

AUSTIN -- Police officers from across the state fled to downtown Austin Monday to pay tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the line of duty.
A ceremony honoring fallen police officers and a parade took place Monday morning. The governor and lieutenant governor were in attendance.
One of those fallen officers honored was APD Senior Officer Jaime Padron. He was shot and killed in North Austin last April.
The ceremony held for fallen officers takes place every two years. Officers from across Texas took part in the procession up Congress Avenue Monday around 10:30 a.m.
Twenty-five fallen officers were added to the Texas Peace Officers memorial wall on the northeast side of the State Capitol. Family members of the officers, including Padron, sat behind the podium for the ceremony.
Fourteen additional officers will be added to the memorial who died before 1999 when the wall went up. Some date as far back as the 1800s.
Sunday night there was a special vigil at the memorial site. People gathered and held up blue lights in honor of the fallen officers.

"I've advocated distinguishing between infractions that are alleged to have occurred during the game's "Wild West" era, when the commissioner, owners, the players' union and the media all contributed to reenforcing the status quo, and those for which we have the proof of a positive test."
Why, exactly? It is incorrect to say these players didn't do anything "wrong" by taking steroids simply because it wasn't being tested for yet. To do so mistakenly supposes something that is "wrong" must carry with it the possibility of punishment. The very fact that these players did everything they could to keep their actions a secret says everything about the moral and ethical nature of what they were doing; in other words, it was obvious even to them that they were cheating.
On the whole, fans recognize that the players were cheating. The players, likewise, know they were cheating. It should not even need to be argued that they did something "wrong."

Linux groupware server natively serves Outlook clients
Zarafa replaces Microsoft Exchange on a Linux server and collaborates with Outlook thanks to native MAPI support.
Many Linux servers work in heterogeneous environments, serving Windows clients that use MS Outlook for mail and calendar functions. Even if a new groupware system is introduced, the widespread use of Windows clients sometimes makes Outlook an inescapable alternative. Unfortunately, Outlook uses the native Windows Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) for communication with other applications, and the Outlook client is designed to talk to a Windows Exchange server. This preference for Exchange makes the integration of Linux-based groupware systems difficult.

Wasn't there a bowl in there (I think 2004 season) when Tennessee played and beat Michigan?
Down in SEC country, a few of us like to make the occasional Yankee joke right before we remind the folks up north that Southern football is King with a capital K. Up in Big Ten country — where this writer happened to live for three happy years — those folks like to toss a few "hillbilly" barbs our way often followed by some mention of the term "oversigning."
In reality, the SEC-Big Ten rivalry — at least in bowl games — has been pretty even. (We'll pause for Big Ten fans to rejoice.) In 28 games against one another over the last 10 seasons, the SEC has won 15 times, the Big Ten has won 12 times, and last year's Ohio State win over Arkansas has been vacated due to the cheatin' ways of Jim Tressel and his Buckeyes. A three-game difference over a decade? That's hardly the gulf we've come to believe exits between the two leagues.
But when you look a bit more closely at the bowl results you'll notice a clear line of demarcation between SEC-Big Ten parity and SEC dominance. And the line was drawn on January 8th, 2007.
From the Music City Bowl of December 2002 right on through the Capital One Bowl of January 2007, the Big Ten actually held an 8-5 bowl advantage over their rivals to the south. But since Florida's shocking 41-14 upset/blowout of Ohio State in the BCS Championship Game that January, the SEC has dominated the Big Ten 10 in bowl wins, 10-4. (That mark would be 11-4 if we had counted Texas A&M's bowl win over Northwestern last month… but we didn't.)
Not only did the Gators kick their own program into high gear — they would win another BCS crown just two years later — but they also heralded in what Mike Slive has referred to as the SEC's "golden age."
Here's a quick look at the SEC-Big Ten bowl matchups of the past 10 years:
2002 Season
2002 Music City Bowl — Minnesota 29, Arkansas 14 (B10: 1-0)

2011 Sugar Bowl — VACATED by Ohio State
2011 Season
2012 Outback Bowl — Michigan State 33, Georgia 30 in OT (SEC: 13-12)
2012 Gator Bowl — Florida 24, Ohio State 17 (SEC: 14-12)
2012 Capital One Bowl — South Carolina 30, Nebraska 13 (SEC: 15-12)
So what changed on January 8th, 2007? In our view, that night was simply the culmination of a series of events that would lift the SEC to new heights:
1. LSU's Les Miles was already building upon the solid foundation left for him by Nick Saban. The Tigers would win the national title the following January and are in position to win another next week.
2. Nick Saban had already begun his second SEC rebuilding job at Alabama. The Tide went on to win the BCS title following the 2009 season and — like LSU — are back in the title game again this year.
3. Tim Tebow had arrived in Gainesville. Nothing against Urban Meyer, but as we've seen with Tebow's impact in the NFL, players around him tend to play better when he's on the scene. For all the talk of his disappointing passing stats, the Broncos were 1-4 when he took over as QB and they're now division champs with a defense and running game that all just happened to get better as soon as Tebow took the reigns. Meyer's first team — sans the wunderkind and his "Third and Tebow" runs — went 9-3. His second and fourth teams won BCS championships. Meyer was and is a good coach. There's no debating that. But With Tebow he was 48-7 and without him he was 17-8. Tebow was the difference-maker in Gainesville.
4. In 2009, the SEC launched its new television deals with ESPN and CBS. Those packages will bring in $3 billion for the SEC over a span of 15 years, but more importantly, the pacts set the stage for darn near every SEC football game each year to reach a national audience. While other leagues still dealt with regional coverage for many games, the SEC was front and center for all America to see.
Miles, Saban, and Tebow created wins and storylines for college football fans to follow. CBS and ESPN broadcast those storylines from Alaska to the Florida Keys. As a result, the SEC's position as the place to be for college recruits was only strengthened.
Add it all up and the gulf between the SEC and the Big Ten appears to be widening. The SEC has won five consecutive BCS crowns and it's guaranteed a sixth when LSU and Alabama hold their rematch next week.
Already the SEC has won seven BCS titles since the system's inception in 1998. Five different SEC schools have captured the flag. By comparison, the Big Ten's only title came in January of '03. And Ohio State is only Big Ten program to even reach the championship game (going 1-2 overall). Oh yeah, forgot to mention that the SEC is now 7-0 all-time in BCS title bouts.
How wide the gap between Slive's and Jim Delany's leagues will grow is anyone's guess. The same goes for how long it will take for the Big Ten to regain equality. But for now, the SEC holds a clear advantage over its rival from up yonder. And that advantage has been growing since January 8th, 2007.

Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 10, 2011 12:34 PM
This discussion is related to: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SWITCHYARD-9
I have been charged with looking at ways to (de)serialize message, context and exchange instances. Standard java serialization is slow and fat, but the biggest problem is it's inability to handle class file changes. This started me down a path of looking at other options for SwitchYard.
The first things that popped to my head were various XML encoding techniques (including java.beans.XMLEncoder/XMLDecoder). But XML is fat and we want the thinnist and fastest mechanism we can find, so I started looking at other options...
I found the following:
As you can see, Kyro quickly became very attractive. It is very fast and thin, and has minimal dependencies. I was still initially leaning toward Google protobuf, but that requires config files (.proto files) to be in place, and you have to know which classes you are going to map for serialization ahead of time. That doesn't work for us. We can do it dynamically at runtime with Kyro. So, I think we should give Kyro a try. We can protect ourselves (if we end up not being able to use Kyro) by wrapping it behind an interface.
Note: I still need to figure out the licensing for Kyro, as online it says a form of BSD, yet in the source download it says it's free and reusable, but with a custom license.
1. Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 10, 2011 12:41 PM (in response to David Ward)
Hmmm... Looks like I missed this updated graph:
I'm now quickly checking out protostuff, which might iron out the wrinkles of protobuf.
2. Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 10, 2011 1:24 PM (in response to David Ward)
Yeah, Kyro is still looking better. More dynamic.
Aside, I'm proposing we have a org.switchyard.io package in both switchyard-api (for interfaces) and switchyard-runtime (for implementations). Agreed?
3. Message and Context SerializationKeith Babo Mar 11, 2011 7:20 AM (in response to David Ward)
Are we still planning on using JavaBeans as the serialization contract with a pluggable implementation underneath? I thought this was the direction we were headed based on input from you and Kevin at the F2F. So the contract would be such that all Message payloads must be JavaBean-compatible. If they are not, a user-supplied class is required to map to/from a JavaBeans representation. IIRC, the format we discussed for serialization was JSON based on it's wide adoption and avoidance of relying on serialized Java classes which can blow up between incompatible versions.
4. Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 11, 2011 10:45 AM (in response to Keith Babo)
We wouldn't need JavaBeans as the serialization contract since this can handle private fields.
The direction we were headed toward at the F2F was with minimal information to chew on.
JSON serializers are slower, and the representation bigger than this.
The above would not rely on serialized Java classes. It has a compatibility mechanism.
5. Message and Context SerializationKeith Babo Mar 11, 2011 11:12 AM (in response to David Ward)
The advantage that I see with the JavaBeans approach is that there is an established standard behind it. So if we say "all content on the message must be a JavaBean or be capable of being represented as a JavaBean", there is a wealth of information and a standard behind how that works. I'm thinking about this more at the contract level and not at the serialization level.
At the serialization level, I imagine that JSON would be slower and bigger, so I don't have an issue with using a binary representation assuming that it's independent of the class definition (specifically, a given version of a class).
I'm guessing we are more or less on the same page here, but figured I would check.
6. Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 11, 2011 11:15 AM (in response to Keith Babo)
I get what you're saying. Contract requirement vs. serialization format. Ok.
7. Message and Context SerializationTom Fennelly Mar 11, 2011 11:45 AM (in response to Keith Babo)
I think one advantage of something like JSON for us is that it's "readable" (vs a binary rep). If the receiver is at first not able to make sense of JSON, at least they can see what they need to do in order to make it consumable on its side of the exchange. If it's a binary format... it's hosed because it can't get at the data easily.
I'd go for a clear contract + readable representation as the default (e.g. Javabean + JSON). If we make it pluggable, then people can sub in something else where performance is a big issue.
8. Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 11, 2011 11:49 AM (in response to Tom Fennelly)
Shouldn't be too hard to have a couple different implementations. However, I would prefer the higher-performance one to be the default, and if they need to debug something, they can configure the slower, but readable, format.
9. Message and Context SerializationTom Fennelly Mar 11, 2011 11:54 AM (in response to David Ward)
Problem with that approach is... the user needs more knowledge to get out of trouble when they find themselves in trouble What I mean is... they hit a problem... stress levels rise a bit... they can't see the data... stress rises another bit... then they figure out they need make low level to configurations to switchyard just to get to see the data... stress levels hit the roof I know I'd start throwing things out the window at that point !!
10. Re: Message and Context SerializationDavid Ward Mar 11, 2011 11:59 AM (in response to Tom Fennelly)
I wouldn't expect that much stress, as long as there is adequate documentation. I lean toward the better performing one so that we do well in 1) out-of-the-box performance comparisons, and 2) less configuration to be done to stand-up a production-ready system.
11. Message and Context SerializationKeith Babo Mar 14, 2011 9:54 AM (in response to David Ward)
I'm good with the binary serialization as a default. I agree with Tom's point on a human parseable serialization for debugging purposes, but I think that can be configured in when required.
If you want to see the actual details of a message as it moves to and from on the bus (i.e. a trace/audit log), then you can configure your service and/or domain to enable an audit policy. The policy details can include a specific instruction for the serialization format requested. In test/development environments, we just need to make it simple to set that policy at a domain level.
12. Message and Context SerializationMichael Cowgill Mar 22, 2011 8:23 AM (in response to Keith Babo)
Thanks for pointing me to this thread.
I won't be labor any points here, but I think GPB is actually the middle ground between Kyro and XML.
GPB is human readable (every message can be printed becuase they are traversable see TextFormat.java).
GPB is binary and uses varint encoding so it will greatly outperform XML
GPB is flexible - and you don't HAVE to write proto files, but it performs faster with them. You'll have to follow their descriptor classes to see how to dynamically construct a message (FileDescriptorSet -> FileDescriptor -> FieldDescriptor [repeated]...). In addition you can change a message structure dynamically or via the actual .proto and not break any legacy devices (Kyro may struggle with this). You might also want to look at extensions as well. I could see a very good use defining a standard .proto and letting users configure on the fly to hot deploy services.
GPB issues - lack of a java proto compiler and proto parser make runtime compilation a little cludgey (but do-able). Kenton (GPB lead) may be working to create one of these. There may be a very large message performance issue - I can't remember if this was solved.
Overall if performance is your main criteria I can not argue with the Kryo choice. With GPB wide range of language libraries, traversability and readability the only reason I will use XML again is because another application forces me -- which will continue to happen.
If you guys want to continue to discuss GPB in more detail I can, but I figure reading posts isn't your favorite part of the job.
I'd also be interested in understanding how this code fits into the core. I am still learning about how ESB's and other SOA infra's are really built.
13. Message and Context SerializationKeith Babo Mar 22, 2011 10:33 AM (in response to Michael Cowgill)
Hey Michael,
Your feedback and insight is very useful, so please keep it coming!
What I would really like to see is that we use our existing Transform support to provide serialization. That way, there's a well-defined and pluggable mechanism available to try out different serialization implementations. Ideally, we would have multiple options and users would be able to declare the serialization strategy as part of their runtime configuration.
David is working on pulling together an initial design around the serialization piece, so that's the next bit to look out for. From there, we can talk about how GPB might integrate with that.
BTW, I like the idea of introducing a GPB transformer. I added a JIRA for it.
14. Message and Context SerializationMichael Cowgill Apr 4, 2011 10:29 AM (in response to Keith Babo)
Ok so I am not sure if this warrants a new thread or not, you guys can tell me that. GPB is looking at a significant change/enhancement and the language reminds me of Smooks. However, I have not had time to chase this trail. Also the solution is not ready yet, so I don't know if that matters to this group. Regardless here it the thread on their community forum. I realize this isn't quite at the internal level you guys are currently focused and does lay one layer on top of that.

UPDATE: Pujols' lawyer answers Clark's polygraph request
It looks like Albert Pujols won't be taking a polygraph test to resolve his defamation case against Jack Clark.
Pujols is suing Clark for calling him a "juicer" on his radio show back in August.
Clark's attorney suggested in a letter earlier this week that the dispute could be resolved if both men took lie-detector tests.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Martin Singer, a Los Angeles attorney representing Pujols, wrote back, calling the suggestion "an absurd publicity ploy." Singer wrote that his client is willing to testify under oath in a court of law, where it counts.
Clark's radio show was canceled after his on-air comments that former Pujols trainer Chris Mihlfeld had confided in him about shooting up Pujols with performance-enhancing drugs in 2000. Mihlfeld denies speaking with Clark.
TX Judge orders Armstrong to answer doping questions
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A Texas judge is pushing Lance Armstrong closer to his first sworn testimony on details of his performance-enhancing drug use, ordering the cyclist to answer questions about who knew what and when about his doping.
That could possibly even include information about his ex-wife and attorneys.
Nebraska-based Acceptance Insurance Holdings is seeking the information in its lawsuit to recover $3 million in bonuses it paid Armstrong from 1999 to 2001. A judge previously refused to dismiss the case.
The company is trying to prove a years-long conspiracy and cover-up by Armstrong to commit fraud. It wants to know when several of Armstrong's personal and business associates — including ex-wife Kristin Armstrong, team officials, the cyclist's lawyers and International Cycling Union President Pat McQuaid — first learned of his doping.
Armstrong's attorneys say Acceptance is engaged in a "fishing expedition" intended to "make a spectacle of Armstrong's doping."
Rams' linebacker suspended four games
The Rams will be without one of their starting linebackers to start the season.
Jo-Lonn Dubar was suspended without pay for the first four games of the season for violating the league's policy on performance enhancing drugs. Dunbar had a career year with the Rams, tallying 91 tackles, 4-and-a-half sacks, 2 forced fumbles, and 2 interceptions.
He will be eligible to return to the roster following the team's September 26 game against the San Francisco 49'ers.
Jack Clark hires attorney, stands by "PED" accusations
The former Cardinal who is in hot water for his comments linking Albert Pujols to performance enhancing drugs has hired a noted St. Louis attorney.
Jack Clark has retained Chet Pleban to represent him in any litigation started by Pujols.
Clark issued a statement Tuesday saying, "I stand by my previous remarks regarding Pujols and will rigorously defend any lawsuit that he chooses to file. Litigation is an intense fact finding process and I welcome the opportunity for a jury of 12 unbiased people to judge the credibility of my comments."
Clark was fired from his radio job after saying on air that he knew for a fact that Pujols had used PEDs.
Rodriguez booed, singles in 1st AB since drug ban
CHICAGO (AP) — Alex Rodriguez stepped up to the plate greeted by a standing boo-vation and blooped a single in his first at-bat of the season.
Hours after Major League Baseball suspended the New York Yankees star through the 2014 season in the Biogenesis drug case, Chicago White Sox fans got their say Monday night.
And, boy, did they let him hear it.
They jeered him during pregame warmups and introductions, and they really tore into him when he walked to the batter's box leading off the second inning.
On the third pitch, Rodriguez dunked a hit into shallow left field. He made it to third base with no outs, but was stranded.
Rodriguez flied out in his next two at-bats and then took a called third strike in the eighth inning while fans chanted "Steroids! Steroids!" He also handled a few grounders at third base as Chicago snapped a 10-game losing streak with an 8-1 win over the struggling Yankees.
At 38 and coming back from hip surgery, Rodriguez said he's fighting for his career.
He did not deny using performance-enhancing drugs in a news conference at U.S. Cellular Field after the punishment came down, and he said he will talk about whether he used PEDs at another time when he is more free to speak.
He did, however, dig in for a battle, saying no one else will defend him unless he stands up for himself. Then, he took to the field, batting fourth against the White Sox.
"There's nothing about it that's been easy," Rodriguez said. "All of it has been challenging. I'm sure there's been mistakes made along the way. We're here now. I'm a human being. I've had two hip surgeries. I've had two knee surgeries. I'm fighting for my life. I have to defend myself. If I don't defend myself, no one else will. There's a process. I'm happy with the process. In due time, hopefully whatever happens, happens."
The Yankees are hoping something good happens with him on the field. They're out of playoff position and desperate for power, especially their third basemen — the players they've had playing that spot this season had a combined 32 RBIs, fewest in the majors according to STATS, and were hitting .215 with four homers.
Rodriguez, with 647 career home runs, arrived at the ballpark in a dark gray Cadillac around 3:10 p.m. CT and waved when a fan shouted "A-Rod!" on his way into the stadium.
In the clubhouse, his locker was jammed with the usual clothing and equipment, and there was a scouting report on his chair.
It all looked so ordinary, yet there was nothing ordinary about this day.
The three-time MVP was one of 13 players disciplined on Monday, one of the biggest mass suspensions in the history of the game.
All-Stars Nelson Cruz, Jhonny Peralta and Everth Cabrera were banned 50 games each. Rodriguez, however, got 211 games, due to start Thursday.
He will appeal his suspension, and that means he will likely be able to play the rest of this season while his case winds through arbitration.
Prior to his first game since last Oct. 18, Rodriguez signed autographs and drew a crowd — of both fans and photographers.
Rodriguez said "a lot" went into his decision to appeal his case but added "I'm not going to get into any of that today."
"What we've always fought for was for the process, and I think we have that and at some point we'll sit in front of an arbiter and give our case," he said. "And that's as much as I feel comfortable telling you right now."
Asked if he denies using PEDs, Rodriguez said, "Like I said, we'll have a forum to discuss all of that and we'll talk about it then."
If he hasn't used PEDs since then, why not say it?
"There's a lot of things that have been thrown to the wall, and I think when the time is right, there will be an opportunity to do all of that," he said. "I don't think that time is right now. And I don't want to interfere or get in the way of anything that — with the process."
On Friday, Rodriguez hinted that the Yankees did not want him back and were trying to avoid paying him the $94.5 million they still owe him through 2017.
Union executive director Michael Weiner said those comments were probably out of frustration and that Rodriguez would probably agree they were "counterproductive."
Weiner also said he and Rodriguez have talked since then — but not about those comments.
"But I would guess that all things considered, and having thought about it a little bit, he's probably not very happy with those comments," Weiner added.
Rodriguez, meanwhile, brushed off a question about his comment on Friday, saying "Today is another day, and I'm focused on what my job is and my responsibilities to the New York Yankees and to the fan base of New York."
He thanked the fans, media, people from the Dominican Republic and Hispanics "all over the world" for the support.
Whether he has the Yankees' support is another issue.
"If I'm productive, I think they want me back," Rodriguez said.
Rodriguez batted .120 (3 for 25) with no RBIs last postseason, including 0 for 18 with 12 strikeouts against right-handers.
"It's been a long time for me, and the last time I was on the field it wasn't pretty," he said. "I was horrific."
Alex Rodriguez isn't going down without a fight
A person familiar with deliberations tells The Associated Press that Major League Baseball has informed the New York Yankees that Rodriguez will be suspended Monday but can play while he appeals the penalty. The person said the Yankees were not told the exact length of the suspension, but were left under the impression it will be through the 2014 season.
The person also said Rodriguez could get a shorter penalty for violating baseball's drug agreement if he gives up the right to file a grievance and force the case before an arbitrator.
Rodriguez said on Saturday that he planned to rejoin his teammates in time for Monday's series opener at Chicago. Manager Joe Girardi said he will pencil A-Rod into the lineup.
A second source says MLB planned an announcement for noon EDT Monday.
Thirteen other players faced discipline following baseball's probe of the Biogenesis of America anti-aging clinic. All-Stars Nelson Cruz of Texas and Jhonny Peralta of Detroit are among those facing the stiffest penalties.
Toronto outfielder Melky Cabrera, Oakland pitcher Bartolo Colon and San Diego catcher Yasmani Grandal served suspensions after positive tests last year. They've been tied to this performance-enhancing drug case, but can't be disciplined again for the same offense.

Woman suing Washington University over birth control research project
Wash U: Surgery goggles to aid in cancer treatment
High tech glasses developed at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis may help surgeons visualize cancer cells, which could help reduce the number of surgeries need to eradicate the disease in many patients.
The glasses are so new they have yet to be named.
They're designed to make it easier for surgeons to distinguish cancer cells from healthy cells, by making the cancer cells appear blue. Highlighting the diseased cells will help to ensure that no stray tumor cells are left behind during surgery.
The glasses were used during surgery for the first time Monday. Breast surgeon Dr. Julie Margenthaler performed the operation at BJC's Siteman Cancer Center. She says more development and testing will be done, but the potential benefits to patients is encouraging.
Local forest to be part of global climate change study
A small patch of forest in St. Louis County could be a big part of understanding global climate change.
In November, the 60-acre plot at Washington University's Tyson Research Center near Eureka was named a Smithsonian Institution Global Earth Observatory. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the land between Lone Elk and West Tyson County Parks is now part of a network of 52 other forest plots scattered around the world being used to study climate change and biodiversity.
In part, the Smithsonian project is examining both how climate change affects forests and how forests affect climate change.
The Tyson plot is expected to provide a lot of information because scientists have been monitoring it since the 1980s and have collected data covering two of Missouri's worst droughts, 1988 and 2012. The latter was the worst on record.
Rare coin collection sale helps fund money museum
ST. LOUIS (AP) - A rare St. Louis coin collection that sold for $23 million at a two-day New York City auction began when the collection's 102-year-old owner received an 1859 one-cent piece nine decades ago from his grandfather.
Retired St. Louis lawyer Eric P. Newman only paid about $7,500 for the 1,800 piece collection sold at auction. Auctioneer Jim Halperin says the items represent just one-third of Newman's total collection.
Proceeds from the sale will go toward supporting the nonprofit Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. The society operates the Newman Money Museum, which is part of the Kemper Art Museum at Washington University in St. Louis. Newman is a 1935 law graduate of the school.
Golf important networking tool, university offering classes on sport
ST. LOUIS (AP) - For many, golf is more than a game - it's a business opportunity. That's why Washington University in St. Louis is helping students take up a sport that can be a powerful tool for networking.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the university offers international students a course on how to play golf. How popular is the program that began last year? All 20 spots in this year's class were claimed within 12 minutes, and the wait list includes 60 students.
Students from India, China, Iran, Romania, South Korea and Mexico took time away from studying law, chemistry, business or engineering to take the golf class.
Instructor Mark Lewis, club pro at the Highlands Golf and Tennis Center in Forest Park, leads the class of mostly beginners.
Sexual assault reported on Washington University campus

Locally, Washington University was selected to the number-14 spot, the University of Illinois at number-41, Missouri at 97 and just out of the top-100 is Saint Louis University ranked at 101.
Washington University Study Finds Alcohol Increases Breast Cancer Risk
It's a sobering fact for millions of young women heading back to school: The more alcohol they drink before motherhood, the greater their risk of developing breast cancer. In a study published online this week in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine say they have linked increased breast cancer risk to drinking. The study concluded that if a female averages a drink per day between early adolescence and her first full-term pregnancy, she increases her risk of breast cancer by 11 percent. The researchers also found that for every bottle of beer, glass of wine or shot of liquor consumed daily, a young woman increases her risk of benign breast disease by 15 percent. Although such lesions are noncancerous, their presence increases breast cancer risk by as much as 500 percent.

School officials say the busiest time is around 10 AM.

Tess has been married three times before and one of those marriages left her so scared, she refuses to develop meaningful relationship with men. Tess uses her marriages for convenience and it looks like she is due for another one.
Owen Purchase is an American sea captain that out of the blue came into the title of Viscount Rothbury. He currently works for the Home Secretary, Lord Sidmouth, who has been trying to take down the radical movement. He comes upon Lady Darent exiting a brothel wearing menÆs clothes and canÆt help but intercept her for a little talk. After she leaves, he slowly puts the pieces together and suspects Tess is involved with the radicals, but he decides to keep that information to himself for now.
Tess knows Owen is suspicious of her and she plans on proposing to Owen in a plan to keep her safe. If Owen marries her, then by law he canÆt be forced to share what he knows. Tess doesnÆt truly think he will agree, but she has to give it a shot. To her surprise, Owen does agree to marry her. Owen wants to play her bluff, but little does he know that Tess needs a lot more than his protection from the law and he discovers that Tess is the most unexpected and interesting woman heÆs met.
As with other Nicola Cornick books, the writing in Desired is faultless. It flows effortlessly and the interactions between characters are amusing and enjoyable. Both characters are inspiring, but I especially like Owen. He is a gentleman to the core by being tender, caring, and respectful. HeÆs very cute when he is on the verge of losing control and gets upset about it.
Desired is CornickÆs fifth book in the six book series called the Scandalous Women of the Ton. There are some references in the beginning of the book that are a little out of place and is no doubt due to this book being part of a series. These references are not critical to the story and do not impact the plot, so this book could be read as a stand-alone if the reader chooses. This book is strongly recommended.
--Nichole Howell

I am an AmeriCorps VISTA member serving in Montana with the Global Health Equity Foundation on their social media based project titled "Let's Talk." This project allows me to work toward enabling Healthy Futures in a different way. In fact, I'm the only member working on a mental health project in the state.
Let's Talk promotes conversations and awareness around the issue of suicide in Montana. This unfortunate problem is being addressed by a group of courageous teenagers who are standing up to tell their stories in an attempt to provide support so that other teens know it's okay to talk and that no one is alone.
Before I became an AmeriCorps VISTA member, I worked with AmeriCorps NCCC FEMA Corps where I saw first-hand how natural disasters and poverty affect mental health.

Digging for the Roots of Digital Storytelling
Interesting article by Carolyn Handler Miller, about the origins of digital storytelling. Excerpt:
On the vast timetable of human achievements, computer-based interactive storytelling is a mere infant, only coming into being in the mid-twentieth century with the development of modern electronic computer technology. These narratives are also characterized by attributes rarely found in other forms of storytelling: they are interactive; they are immersive; they are nonlinear; and they are participatory, meaning that the audience not only takes part in them but can make choices that directly impact the story. Furthermore, the fictional characters in these stories commonly breach the fourth wall – the invisible barrier that separates the story world on one side and the real world on the other. In interactive narratives, it is extremely common for the fictional characters and the audience to communicate with each other and even for audience members to step into the story and play a direct role in it.
Given the fact that these narratives are so new and that they differ in so many important regards from other forms of storytelling, one might wonder if they are an entirely modern invention. Did they enter the world like the Greek goddess Athena, who sprung into the world from the head of her father, Zeus, fully formed, dressed and armed? In other words, are these unique types of works that came into existence only because the development of the electronic computer made them possible? Or do the characteristics that make them so different from other forms of narrative possibly have roots in earlier types of storytelling and other human activities?

Detention extended for man tied to slain ND familyBISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A Somali man with ties to a slain Minot family will be detained for an additional 90 days on an unrelated immigration charge, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A Somali man with ties to a slain Minot family will be detained for an additional 90 days on an unrelated immigration charge, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Tuesday.
ICE officials said 26-year Omar Kalmio was arrested Feb. 1 in Minot for failing to abide by the terms of release stemming from a 2006 assault charge. Shawn Neudauer, an ICE spokesman in St. Paul, Minn., said immigration officials extended Kalmio's initial 90-day detention to 180 days on Tuesday.
Neudauer said Kalmio, who is being held in a Grand Forks jail, will have another mandatory review in 90 days.
Kalmio is the father of an infant girl found alive in the apartment where 19-year-old Sabrina Zephier was found dead Jan. 28. Zephier's mother, Jolene Zephier, 38, brother, Dillon Zephier, 13, and Jolene Zephier's boyfriend, Jeremy Longie, 22, were found slain in nearby mobile home less than an hour later.
Investigators have ruled out murder-suicide in the shooting deaths.
Minot Police Lt. Jason Sundbakken said Tuesday that Kalmio has been interviewed as a "person of interest" but no charges have been filed against anyone in the homicides.
"We have interviewed him a couple of times," Sundbakken said of Kalmio. "He is connected to the family so we are interested in speaking with him. But there are lots of people who are interesting to us in this case.
"We will not comment on who we're looking at," he said.
Kalmio returned a telephone call from The Associated Press last week from the Grand Forks jail. He said he had no attorney and hung up.
Authorities said he was still being held at the jail Tuesday. Neither ICE nor jail officials could confirm whether Kalmio had since hired an attorney.
Kalmio has two criminal convictions from 2006 in Minnesota. He was convicted of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon, a felony, and sentenced to one year and one day in prison, court records show. A criminal complaint in the case said Kalmio and a group of other Somali men attacked a man in Minneapolis in January 2006, and Kalmio stabbed him three times in the back with a knife. The victim also was stabbed in the face and shoulder and suffered a collapsed lung and concussion.
In the second case, Kalmio was convicted of theft and ordered to pay a fine. Court records show he lived in the Twin Cities suburb of Eagan when the crimes happened.
Kalmio had been ordered to report to immigration officials in Grand Forks last August but did not, ICE said.
The agency previously had issued a statement saying Kalmio was released from custody in May 2010 as a result of a 2001 U.S. Supreme Court decision that required a court review before immigrants convicted of certain crimes could be deported, a process that had been automatic before. The decision also said criminals with no country to accept them couldn't be jailed indefinitely.
Somalia has not had a functioning government since 1991.

Hey guys,
I found this coupon on the net and i just went to my local Kmart and purchased a PS3 for $344 total! Make sure to print it out in color as there was another person there with a black and white copy and the lady told him no. I guess the reason they took mine was because it was printed in color and it didn't blantantly look like a copy. anyways, the coupon is good for one item this week and next week. Of course you can make as many copies as you want. good luck!

Theodore will be the Caps goalie for the next two seasons as the former Hab and Av will earn $9 million...
The Caps are a better team and they are well-coached. Theodore could be absolutely brutal and still get 30 wins. As it is, with this team he will get over 35 wins and be hailed as the "Theodore of old". Why? Because the team around him will be so good this year. The talent will be an illusion...but us fantasy junkies don't care about that do we. We just care about the numbers. Get him.

So what would be some good summer tees? I was thinking about going with American Apparel to get star
Does anyone know what blanks most street wear companies use? Been doing some research and I've found out that Thrasher uses Gildan for their hoodies. Well I think. Anyways anyone wanna help a nigg outAlstyle covers everything. Standard good quality tees. A couple different styles they offer most people use. 1301 is the most common. Their 3/4 sleeves are dope. Hoodies are real good quality. We used them, really soft and thick. A lot of brands use Independent Trading Co. for hoodies but their prices are kinda steep in comparison to Alstyle's. Personally not a fan of Gildan's hoodies.
