Escape from Five Shadows (Mass Market Paperbound)
Email or call for price
Special Order
No one breaks out of the brutal convict labor camp at Five Shadows--but Corey Bowen is ready to die trying. They framed him to put him in there, and beat him bloody and nearly dead after his last escape attempt. He'll have help this time--from a lady with murder on her mind and a debt to pay back. Because freedom isn't enough for primed dynamite like Bowen. And he won't leave the corrupt desert hell behind him until a few scores are settled...permanently.

LONG ISLAND JOURNAL; The View From Inside the Gas Mask
By MARCELLE S. FISCHLER
Published: November 11, 2001
TWO weeks ago, Armand Tomo, a medical equipment dealer, bought a Geiger counter. It sits on his desk keeping tabs on a possible nuclear strike. Should radioactive material be indicated, he'll then know to reach for the potassium iodate capsules he recently stored in his desk drawer at work and bedside table at home. Just two a day should ward off the thyroid cancer such an attack would induce, Mr. Tomo said, certainly a more palatable alternative than consuming 300 pounds of salt.
Mr. Tomo, 51, also keeps a gas mask within arm's reach. When he leaves his Baldwin office, he has another in the car, a third at home plus a couple of spares for friends who may not be so well equipped. In case of a chemical attack, Mr. Tomo has four chemical resistance suits sealed in plastic bags at the ready. And should diabolic forces attack with a nerve agent, he has several spray bottles of diluted Clorox bleach for self-decontamination.
Studying warfare has long been Mr. Tomo's passion. He pores over books on bioterrorism the way others consume romance novels. And faced with a swell of potential doomsday risks since Sept. 11, from anthrax and smallpox to contaminated water and food supplies and ''dirty bombs'' stuffed with radioactive materials, Mr. Tomo is one of many Long Islanders who have vivid imaginations and have taken aggressive measures to protect themselves.
''Am I overreacting in some areas? Yes,'' Mr. Tomo said. ''Am I underreacting in some areas? Possibly. We aren't being informed intelligently what to do.''
While officials have tightened security at government offices, post offices, airports and the Nassau Coliseum, little on the suburban landscape has outwardly changed since Sept. 11. But miles from ground zero, residents are concocting plans to deal with potential nightmares.
Just living on an island that is inaccessible unless you have a boat, a plane or a willingness to travel over suspension bridges or through an East River tunnel has given some the heebie-jeebies. Benjamin Sussman, 21, a college student who worked as a lifeguard in the summer, said he opened the car window and took off his seatbelt when he crossed the George Washington and Throgs Neck Bridges on his way to Great Neck recently, just in case he needed to swim to safety.
The Long Island Rail Road? Edward Gulmi of Huntington wondered what would happen if a squadron of suicidal terrorists filled jars with anthrax spores and threw them onto the tracks. The train could be a germ spreader as it whooshes past, he said. Mr. Gulmi is vice president of Cyfit Wellness Solutions, a Hauppauge company that recently added military-grade gas masks to its health and nutrition line.
Jeffrey Moskowitz, a periodontist from Rockville Centre, said that on Sept. 12 he spent $500 on a gas mask, extra filters, a body suit, a survival knapsack containing purified water, a transistor radio, blanket, sleeping bag, flashlight, candles and anti-radiation pills in case of fallout. He stocked up on Cipro, doxycycline and amoxycillin. And with his business partner, Jack McGolgan, and Sharon Pollick, an oral surgeon with a boat moored in Patchogue, Dr. Moskowitz drew up an escape plan. If anything happens on the Island, the three of them plan to escape by water to Shelter Island or Connecticut.
''Just in case, that would be our escape route, rather than going from Long Island into the city where the roads might be closed'' said Dr. Moskowitz, 37. ''It may be overkill and a lot of people have made fun of me. Let them make fun of me. If anything happens, I'll be prepared.''
Donna Lee Nardo, a publicist from Moriches, said she is so flummoxed by the post office incidents that she slips on latex gloves, puts a scarf around her face and goes outside to open her mail.
''The anthrax threat has completely altered the manner in which I do business and live my life overall these days,'' said Ms. Nardo, who replenished her stockpile of emergency supplies from the millennium.
Some anxiety is normal, said Ruth Dowling Bruun, a psychiatrist and executive medical director of the Family Counseling Service in Westhampton Beach, who was asked to review the measures the people mentioned in this article are taking.
''But the extremes cited here are just that -- extreme,'' Dr. Bruun said. ''The tendency to panic is increased by the feeling that these terrorists are living among us and that their inhumanity has no bounds. President Bush calls them 'evil doers' and many high government officials are using terms such as 'pure evil' to describe them. This creates far more panic than the concept of a normal enemy. In the face of this, people quite naturally feel helpless and taking measures to protect themselves, regardless of how extreme they may be, make them feel more in control simply because they are doing something.''
She added that anxiety is up, depression is up and requests for psychotherapy and/or psychiatric medication are up. Requests for counseling and other psychiatric help at the Family Counseling Service have increased by about 30 percent in the past month and are still rising, and with counselors working to maximum capacity, those seeking help are being put on waiting lists.
William Helmreich, a sociologist in Great Neck, wrote a book, ''Against All Odds'' about how people recover from long-term trauma.

Healthy Good Morning Muffins
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 20 mins
I got this out of a newspaper health supplement, it's a recipe by a nutrition adviser. I've tried them myself and they make a great alternative breakfast, especially warmed up with a little butter. If you like a bit of sweetness use sweetened coconut or you can soak your raisins in apple juice overnight.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1⁄2 cup oatmeal
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 medium carrots, grated
- 1⁄2 cup raisins
- 1⁄2 cup walnuts, chopped
- 1⁄2 cup desiccated coconut (preferably unsweetened to keep it healthy)
- 1 medium apple, 1/2 grated & 1/2 chopped into small chunks
- 1⁄2 cup yoghurt
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1⁄2 cup butter, melted
- 3 teaspoons vanilla essence
- Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
- In a mixing bowl combine wholemeal flour, oatmeal, baking powder, cinnamon, grated carrots, raisins, chopped walnuts, coconut and the grated apple.
- In a second bowl mix the yoghurt, banana and baking soda, once combined add the eggs, melted butter and vanilla essence.
- Blend well and then stir into the flour mixture until the two are combined.
- Don't overbeat.
- Bake in muffin tins for approx 20 minutes.
Most Helpful
I left out the coconut and the butter (added a little more banana and flax). They were really tasty!
Even though I had to leave out the walnuts because poor, this was still an interesting combination of all things healthful. Like many other have noted, it's a little lacking in sweetness. But that doesn't necessarily make these muffins "healthy". It was a bit too heavy on the fat with so much butter and yogurt in my opinion. If I make something like this again, I might also add more spices, more like for a carrot cake. Overall, this recipe was interesting but not the best. Might tweak it and repeat though. :)
I have been making these, or a variation of these, for years now. Thanks so much. I upped the oatmeal amount and lowered the flour amount, have added sunflower seeds and more raisins, have made with oil instead of butter, and also tried with 2 eggs... A great base recipe in my opinion. Thanks again!

I work as a Geophysicist in the Oil & Gas Industry. My specialty is data manipulation and problem solving, specifically solving data problems between software solutions.
Most companies use several different software, as each software usually has some functionality that does better than other software. With that variability comes the problem of data exchange between them. In most cases, the manipulation is complex, usually requiring columnar editing & individual column formatting.
I frequently find myself using Notepad++ or Cream over Excel. They are multi-purpose in that I can write sql scripts, convert commas to Tabs & the like. I bumped into each of these programs when looking for an affordable editing program that could column edit & handle a TXT file size of nearly 1 GB with out reformatting the data in the file. Excel will frequently reformat a 14 digit number to appear as 1.0e14 when the value needs to remain 100000000000000 because the 14 digit number is the object identifier.
I bumped into SuperUser.com because I couldn't figure out how to convert a comma to a Tab (or multiple Tabs). I did a Google search and found the answer here in about 2 minutes. The answers are up front and efficient with out a lot of extraneous babble noise.

Figuring out percentages is pretty simple once you know what percent means. Percent means a portion of something divided into 100 pieces, or X/100.
In your case you want 8%, so we do the math 8/100, and we get 0.08 as the answer.
Now that we have actual numbers with which to work, 8 % of $700 is calculated as 0.08 * 700, which is 56.
So the sales tax on the item is $56, and when we add that to the item's cost ($700 + $56) we get $156.00 as the total.
Reuters is reporting that Nassau County in New York is expected to lose some $30,000,000 in sales tax due to the effects of "superstorm Sandy."

KATY (August 14, 2014) Teachers preparing for the first day of classes at a school in Katy got an early morning surprise in the form of an alligator at the back door.
An employee at Beck Junior High School called to report the alligator and Fort Bend County deputies were sent to capture it.
Authorities found the reptile across campus near some air conditioning units.
They lassoed it and removed it after a brief struggle.
No injuries were reported.
It's unclear how big the animal is.
The school district says classes are scheduled to begin on Aug. 25.

Non-WC race win by Prost
Can anyone help out with this toughie?
I have a very early childhood memory of attending what I assumed to be the British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch. However, my dad later told me that it was a race of champions or something similar.
It would have been very late 70s or early 80s. My French uncle was with us and was happy because Alain Prost won. Anyone have any idea what I might have been attending?

Of course we`d have to have Grid Grannies - the nubile young things would be bad for all you old guys tickers.

I'm not - my parents are perhaps misremembering it. I just remember the noise and the speed. I'm going to have to ask them more about it.

New technologies emerge all the time. Some technologies, however, are transformative: they introduce new forms of control, both through formal systems of regulation and by informally shaping our behavior. They have profound impacts and are often disruptive; they affect the way we work and play; they influence our mobility and lifestyle. They offer hope and possibility while introducing new fears and unintended consequences.
Too often our social reactions to new technologies occur only in hindsight, after the technology has penetrated the marketplace. However, recent experience teaches that much may be gained by practising forethought and foresight. Contributors to this collection examine the development, impact, and governance of new technologies emerging from a variety of fields, including biotechnology, genetics, stem cell research, pharmacology, and nanotechnology.

FDA approved a label amendment to Novartis' oral anticancer therapy Glivec™/Gleevec™ (imatinib), recommending the drug be administered to adult patients with KIT (CD117)-positive gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) for three years after surgical resection of tumors. The amendment was based on data from an open-label Phase III clinical trial which showed that compared with 12 months of Glivec therapy, continuing treatment for three years postsurgery prolonged recurrence-free survival (RFS), which equated to a 54% reduction in the risk of recurrence and a 55% reduction in the risk of death.
"Although originally approved in the metastatic disease setting, this subsequent trial has demonstrated that longer use of Gleevec can prolong patients' lives in earlier disease settings," comments Richard Pazdur, M.D., director of the Office of Hematology and Oncology Products at FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. "The development of Gleevec over the past decade highlights the need to further study drugs after approval to truly characterize their benefits." Novartis points out that the U.S. National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) updated its clinical practice guidelines in August 2011 to recommend consideration of at least three years of adjuvant therapy with Gleevec for patients with high-risk GIST.
In parallel with approving the label change, FDA also granted Glivec regular approval for use as an adjuvant therapy in GIST patients who are eligible for surgery but at increased risk of disease recurrence. Accelerated approval for the indication was granted in 2008, the same year that Glivec was granted regular approval for its use as a treatment for advanced or metastatic GIST. Accelerated approval for this initial indication in metastatic disease had been granted back in 2002.
Glivec/Gleevec is separately approved as a targeted treatment for Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (Ph+ CML). The drug made global sales of $4.66 billion in 2011, up 9% on 2010 sales. Fourth quarter 2011 sales were $1.45 billion, up 14%.

The Influence of Camera Focal Length in the Direct-To-Reverb Ratio Suitability and Its Effect in the Perception of Distance for a Motion Picture
In order to study the possible influence of a camera focal length in auditory distance perception, two experiments were conducted. In the first experiment, participants were asked to adjust the amount of reverb according to the presented visual image, which had different lenses focal lengths, and therefore different backgrounds. In the second experiment, participants were asked to rate the egocentric sense of distance to the sound source and the suitability of the sound for the visual image in a pairwise comparison. The results show that the overall sense of distance is mainly dependent on the focal length; however, if the image foreground object has the same size, the focal length can alter the perception of sound distance.

Oh dear. Visually this says 'Come see how we waste money on gargantuan seats". Oh, and on monstrously ill-judged ads.
Yeah it's confusing :S

i dont think the idea is bad for an educational institution, but the retouching is less than desirable
the idea is terrible for any institution. The retouching is irrelevant.
Concept doesn't make sense. Think green, right? Are the students going to be watching bulldozers and tractors and learning how green they are? Are they building the theater out of the minerals extracted from the ground? Nothing about this ad says anything green. It's bogus. Who approved this?
Hmm...nice thought involved!

Whoops, a few pics from the last section didn't make it to that album...
...here they are
Two more...
The couple managing the Casa Verde Hostel in Trevelin. They had a million questions for me about my trip and even asked their facebook friends what questions to ask me!
There I am
Back on the road, heading towards Chile
5th time entering Chile *yawn*
The road between the border and Futaleufú is perfect, but only for about 12 miles
I stayed at Hospedaje "Adolfo" in Futa, where they speak English 1/3 of the time (according to the sign out front)
I tried to leave Futa after spending one night there. The rain was so bad I that I turned around and went back to the hotel. After the rain cleared I did a little hike to this viewpoint and the amazing scenery convinced me to stay for a week and a half!
Lago Espolón Harbor
Lago Espolón ferry
The ferry goes to the village "El Espolón", and passes a few amazing houses along the way
Views from...
...the ferry
Let the trekking begin! This was a relatively short 2 day trek from the port for El Espolón, back through another valley to Futa
This road goes to the town...
...where I found the horse trail to take me back to Futa
To the guy living on the left: It's true.
There were HUGE, dead old trees everywhere in this area. Apparently some of it was caused by "slash and burn" farming
On the first day I got just about to Lago Las Rosas and camped in this field (see my tent?)
This house is only reachable by foot or on horseback. They had a satellite dish and I asked a person working outside where the electricity comes from. Turns out it's hydro! There's a small shed with a turbine in a box that turns what appears to just be a small motor, which connects to a battery, which connects to an inverter for AC. Pretty cool.
Lincon Logs house, complete with red wagon wheel. Gotta love it.
The next few pics are from another viewpoint hike (Piedra de aguila)
The trail from the two day trek ended through the mountains on the other side of the valley
Futaleufú is known for it's incredible water color
Setting out on a three day trek to Lago Azul (Blue Lake), which appeared to have floating ice in Google Earth so I had to check it out for myself!
Excellent views back to the Tres Monjas
Lots of waterfalls around
An abandoned home and barn along Rio Azul
I set up base camp outside this vacant house, and the next day I continued with just a daypack
I could see a farmer down there doing stuff... Possibly farming.
After way too much bushwacking, I had my first view of the glacier!
And arrived just in time to catch this cascade of snow
There was no sign that anyone had ever been here before, so I had to ruin that by erecting a small cairn
The last of many challenges for Lago Azul trekkers is this huge granite bolder field
Three pictures...
...from my last...
...walk around Futa.
I don't think I've posted any pics of Chilean money yet, so here you go
Back on the road again after my unplanned week and a half in Futa - here's another impressive home I passed
Tres Monjas
Pizza flavored peanuts! Does it get any better? (No, no it doesn't.)
Tres Monjas, una vaca
Luckily, Extremo Peligro is my middle name. That's right, in Latin America I'm known as Pablo "Extremo Peligro" Gareau.
Heading towards the Carratera Austral from Futa
Villa Vanguardia, on the CA
My post-wipeout crumpled bike and trailer. Amazingly I was able to run out of it and didn't get hurt
Great scenery and a good place to camp - just a little ways before La Junta
Thanks Mr Tzu, but this traveler has a boat to catch (I spent a boring and very rainy day in my tent)
Luckily for me the second morning was beautiful and I was able to head out again
First sign for the Carretera Austral
The fiord at Puyuguapi
Dolphins! (I counted three)
View from my campsite just outside of Parque Nacional Queulat. I don't recommend camping in the park since it costs $20!
The huge hanging glacier (Ventisquero Colgante)
I took lots of pics here
What's this?
Natural mineral water! It tasted just like what you'd buy at the store - amazing.
The scenery around the pass was incredible
I did a little hiking through the Bosque Encantado (Enchanted Forest) but wasn't feeling well and didn't make it to the lake with floating ice
From the junction of the road to Puerto Cisnes the CA is paved with several nice rest areas - a big change from the rutted single lane road before there
I had to take a day off in Amengual - I'll need to be more careful with my drinking water
The cheapest hotels are usually pretty easy to spot - $8 per night
Some great views after Mañiguales

Riad Lena is immaculately clean and the plunge pool quite refreshing. It is beautiful and quite. They helped us to organize a car rental and kept some of our luggage whilst we were traveling in other parts of Morocco. Breakfast on the terrace was plentiful and tasty. The free filter water was a great bonus. I didn't give it a five as we so often had trouble locating some one when we had questions, and I had sent several emails after making my booking before arrival (regarding transport), none of which were responded to.

Bank of America Sued by Investors Over Mortgage Securities
Bank of America Corp., which is seeking approval for an $8.5 billion mortgage-bond settlement, was sued by investors that want the bank to buy back loans underlying their securities.
Bank of America must buy back the loans because its Countrywide Financial unit breached representations and warranties about them, Walnut Place LLC and related entities said in a complaint filed yesterday in New York State Supreme Court.
The lawsuit comes as Bank of America is seeking court approval to pay $8.5 billion to resolve claims from mortgage investors and avoid repurchasing loans packaged into bonds by Countrywide.
Walnut Place has "serious concerns about the adequacy of the settlement and the conflicts of interest of the parties that negotiated it," the company said in the complaint. "Countrywide and Bank of America agreed to pay only $8.5 billion as a settlement of claims that are worth many times that amount."
Walnut Place previously sued Bank of America over a different trust that holds mortgage loans and issued securities to investors.
Lawrence Grayson, a spokesman for Charlotte, North Carolina-based Bank of America, declined to comment on the new complaint.
The case is Walnut Place LLC v. Countrywide Home Loans Inc, 652146-2011, New York State Supreme Court (Manhattan).

The authors review some potential IC encapsulants, with special focus on the high-performance silicone gel, its chemistry, and its use as a VLSI device encapsulant for single and multichip applications. It is noted that high-performance silicone gel possesses excellent electrical and physical properties for IC protection. With their intrinsic low modulus and soft gel-like nature, silicone gels have become very effective encapsulants for larger, high I/O, wire-bonded VLSI chips. Recent studies indicate that adequate IC chip surface protection with high-performance silicone gels in plastic packaging could replace conventional ceramic hermetic packaging

BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed[ Edited ]
04-16-2011 01:16 PM - last edited on 04-16-2011 01:53 PM by SedonaF
I have an HP Touch Smart 300 PC and have had it for about 8 months with no problems. It suddenly started slowing down & freezing ( I am able to move the cursor around but unable to close any windows or shut pc down correctly) I am also unable to access task manager due to an error message. I ran the HP diagnostics at boot up and received the following message: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed testing ST3750528AS (5VP4W8LJ). I tried to run system restore however it was unable to find any restore points. I am downloading the upgrade 4 to disk from another pc and will install manually to see if that helps. Thanks in advance for any responses. Here is some additional specs:

The error you are getting - BIOHD-8 - does indeed indicate that your Hard Drive is failing and you will need to replace it with a new HDD.

Re: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed
It appears that I'm having the same problem....BIOHD-8 Error Code.... SMART Test Failure. I've had my HP Pavilion since March 2009 been running fine until recently. I will need help to solve this problem right.
So indeed will I need to buy a new Hard drive for my HP Pavilion 6700 with windows Vista 64bit edition? If so please point me in the right direction. Thank You.
Yours Truly
Re: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed
Looks as if I am having the same problem and can use a heads up on where I can obtain one (hard drive) also.. I looked on Ebay and didnt see any that quite fit the description.. and the ones that said they were compatible with my pc were 5400rpm instead of 7200rpm.. I have a HP Touchsmart IQ506. Thanks for any help you can give me..
Re: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed
You can buy a new hard drive in many places (millions actually), a 5400RPM will run a bit slower but a lot quieter.
90% of the 3.5" hard drives out there are compatible with your system.
2 caveats to make things easier:
Do not buy a 2TB or higher drive.
Do not buy a drive marked "Advanced format"
Re: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed
I have a Pavilion 6000 series here with the same issue as discussed. I looked at other forums outside of H P and the feeling is that the motherboard is the issue. One of the forums has an individual that install three seperate hard drives all eventually had this same issue and after they spoke with tech support they had the motherboard replaced and the problem was resolved.
I have purchased a new hard drive for this unit and will install it but I am concerned that I will see this issue again in the future due to a motherboard issue.
Comments please ......................
Re: BIOHD-8 A SMART test failed
I just solved BIOHD-8 problem on friends HP Compaq dx2420.
Hitachi HDD.
Downloaded Drive Fitness Test from http://www.hitachigst.com/suport/downloads , made CD image, boot with CD.
Quict test didn't return any errors, but advanced test did and continued with erase disc utilitie. After erasing advanced test - no errors, HP boot diagnostic - only BIOHD-3 (no boot).
Just installing Windows and everything seems fine.

This paper presents the design, deployment, and evaluation of a real-world sensor network system in an active volcano - Mount St. Helens. In volcano monitoring, the maintenance is extremely hard and system robustness is one of the biggest concerns. However, most system research to date has focused more on performance improvement and less on system robustness. In our system design, to address this challenge, automatic fault detection and recovery mechanisms were designed to autonomously roll the system back to the initial state if exceptions occur. To enable remote management, we designed a configurable sensing and flexible remote command and control mechanism with the support of a reliable dissemination protocol. To maximize data quality, we designed event detection algorithms to identify volcanic events and prioritize the data, and then deliver higher priority data with higher delivery ratio with an adaptive data transmission protocol. Also, a light-weight adaptive linear predictive compression algorithm and localized TDMA MAC protocol were designed to improve network throughput. With these techniques and other improvements on intelligence and robustness based on a previous trial deployment, we air-dropped 13 stations into the crater and around the flanks of Mount St. Helens in July 2009. During the deployment, the nodes autonomously discovered each other even in-the-sky and formed a smart mesh network for data delivery immediately. We conducted rigorous system evaluations and discovered many interesting findings on data quality, radio connectivity, network performance, as well as the influence of environmental factors.

In general, I've felt like the more dirt, germs, bacteria you get exposed to, the more resilient your body becomes. And the more you try to avoid this stuff, the sicker you're likely to become either mentally or physically.
The best bet is almost always not to worry. But it sucks when that thought just doesn't win inside your head. If that thought isn't able to win, there should be some medicine for that so you can fix your mind and relax.
I always remind myself that there's loads of people that do what OCD people don't do and they're almost always fine.
I have to admit, I'm always sick. If there is something going around, I catch it. I don't understand it either, I never touch anything, never touch my eyes, nose mouth to insert any germs.
Back to my hang up: I freakin hate when they are out of soap in the bathrooms. I also hate when I'm at someones house and you think your squirting soap onto your hands but, it's really hand lotion.
I would say the sink is dirtier than the tool. Sixty minutes did a thing on restaurants and they said, " most tops of toilet seats have less germs than kitchen counter tops were the food is prepared. "
Last year I was sitting at AppleBees and some young guys were sitting in the booth behind me. One was laughing about how he wiped this guys steak on his butt crack before he served it to him. The guy was his neighbor and they didn't get along. He told his other buddies that the guy accused him of killing his dog, police came etc, etc. it's no wonder I'm OCD.
I think I'm the opposite of OCD, but understand what many with OCD go through. Instead of obsessing on any one thing, I do worry about many things as we all do. But instead of worry about any one thing repeatedly, I worry about everything eventually. And I constantly convince myself not to worry about what's on top of my mind.
And eventually whatever I was worrying about gets replaced by a new worry.
So I guess in a sense I'm OCD about worrying, but not about anything in particular.
I think everyone's OCD to some extent.
It just fills the gaps that would otherwise lead to boredom.
So I think new activity may be the real cure for OCD.
Become too busy to think about whatever worries you.
I've taken microbiology classes. I know what all these germs can do and where they are, but I look back on my life and think about all the gross things I've done and I just can't find any reason to worry about germs.
I'm never sick. Is it because I was always 'dirty' and I eat food that touches tables and don't wash my hands before I eat and I built up my immune system from that, or am I just lucky that I have a good immune system or otherwise I would be deathly ill all day every day?
I like to think it's the former and just keep doing what I've been doing.
It was tried once before: 1920 - 1933 "The Noble Experiment"... better known as "Prohibition". How'd that work out? I'm sure it will be tried again... we never seem to learn from the past.This will only get worse. Don't be shocked when there is an outright ban on smoking...period. Legislated morality and parenting has become the mainstay of both political parties. I guess we need government to save us from ourselves.
Our Steelers bar has numbered parking spaces in the back. I consider it bad luck if we have to park in a space that's not a player number.
Is that considered OCD?

I use common sense about washing my hands.....I'm not overly fanatic about it. I work in a medical office and try to remember to wash my hands after every patient ( usually in front of them....for some reason they like to see that ). I put eye drops in eyes all day and it's not the germs per say, but I don't want to get dilating drops rubbed into my own eyes and I get their tears on my hands.
But I do think kids are kept entirely "too clean" these days and it just makes for sicker kids.

Hey Community,
I created this website, colinschoice.org, for Colin, a special boy, and to raise funds for Easter Seals. I used WordPress for managing content, i.e., pages and comments. I just wanted to spread the word and share something special for Christmas.
By the way, I have a regular profile here, but I wanted to be anonymous... and, FYI, I started working on this site before I saw the episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Ted Danson makes the anonymous donation :)
In the spirit of the "Barrington Bunny"...

I've made the changes to the different css files including gridview.css but nothing seems to work. I really need some good advice on how to fix the CSS for the different devices. I just don't seem to get it right.

Going to the Birds
Celtic music, food, fire-eating warriors, handmade wares and endangered birds are only some of the ingredients of the third annual Celtic Festival Benefit, which takes place Saturday at Betwixt & Between Community Center. Originally scheduled to happen in March, when the festival benefit was rained out, the all-day, indoor event is presented by The Celtic Cauldron and Rescuers of Environmental Life, Earth and Animal Foundation (R.E.L.E.A.F.) and benefits the On The Wing Again bird sanctuary, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the rehabilitation of orphaned, injured and sick birds of all species and their return to the wild, and to the education of the public concerning the value and place of these species in our ecology. As well as taking care of injured birds, On The Wing Again also offers educational programs, taking birds to schools, libraries, civic groups and many other places to teach the history of the birds and of their place in the environment.
A typical program involves birds such as the red-tailed hawk, peregrine falcon, American kestrel, screech owl, great horned owl, barn owl and black vulture, and discussions include their characteristics and habitat, as well as a description of why these particular birds cannot be released back into the wild. Lasting between 25 minutes and an hour, the program ends with a look at our habitat and our interrelationship with the environment. As well as having some birds on show, the festival will feature a full night of activities including Celtic Fusion dancing, African drummers, bellydancers and wares sold by artisans from Dallas-Fort Worth and the surrounding areas. Providing a full day of family entertainment to support other nonprofit organizations, R.E.L.E.A.F.'s festival benefits are a great way to show support for groups that are working to preserve our natural environment and its wildlife.

The Monthly GNU Column
This column looks into projects and current affairs in the world of free software from the perspective of the GNU Project and the FSF. In this issue, I'll focus on Comspari and the EU decision on software patents.
In the past, the German government has often caused a (positive) stir due to its activities with free software. The Federal Ministry of the Economy (BMWi) sponsored Gnupg [1], for example. Add to this a number of accompanying activities, such as a report by the Bavarian Accounts Office, the KBST letter, and the highly acclaimed migration guide by the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI). Kolab Besides dedicated sponsorship, the Federal Office for Security in Information Technology (BSI) part of BMI launched the Kroupware project in 2002. The public tender by the BSI was aimed to produce a groupware solution that would support strong cryptography and integrate seamlessly into a heterogeneous environment.

This was our second year in this house. We have been coming to LBI for many years and this is the first house we came back to a 2nd time. We are already scheduled to return for a 3rd year in 2015.
House has every amenity and is cared for the way you would care for your own house; neat and clean and comfortable!
The owners are so easy to work with and very accommodating.
We can't wait for next summer!
The house is amazing, we had the best time ever. It's very spacious and beautifully equipped. Gorgeous ocean view!!!!!!
Will recommend to all my friends. Thank you!!!!!!!
The house was wonderful and in beautiful condition. Clean and nicely appointed. The location is 3 houses from the beach and there is a walkway over the dunes, which is awesome. Working with the owner was great, they were very accommodating and easily reachable. There is a view of the beach and ocean off the living room porch. The only thing I could possibly even consider to say could be improved is that the trees off the porch could be trimmed a little so you can better enjoy the view from the lounge chairs. We have rented many houses and this is the first one we are coming back to for a second year.
Our annual (now in its 13th yr) LBI three family (my husband and his two siblings) reunion was at this house last year for the first time. It was a lovely location, great common space for eating and hanging out and a wonderful owner who was very welcoming. Beach was private and just steps away. It just didn't have enough bedrooms for our tribe but I recommend it highly for a smaller group than ours. We're getting a 6 bedroom just a few blocks north of here for 2013. Love the location.
We recently got back from an amazing week spent at this incredible house! We went with another family and both of our 2 1/2 yr old sons had so much fun. The location can't be beat - steps from a beautiful beach and a 2 min drive to all the shopping/restaurants you need. Thank you to Paul and Margaret to opening your house up to us and for outfitting it with everything we needed for a perfect vacation. The kitchen was perfect for cooking and we loved eating out on the deck each night. We look forward to returning!
After renting for several years on the south end of LBI, we decided to try a more private location up in North Beach. Margaret and Paul's home is located on a beautiful quiet lane only 3 houses from a pristine, private lifeguarded beach. Despite the quiet setting, it is also not far from plenty of nearby restaurants and shops. Their home is spacious, extremely comfortable and equipped with everything one would need to enjoy a wonderful vacation at the beach. Their large living room is furnished with ample seating for a large group; an assortment of comfortable leather sofas, loveseats, chaise and recliner. They have movies for adults and children alike, bikes of all sizes and plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. The outside space is fantastic as well, with a nice grill and a large table with plenty of seating. Views from the rooftop deck are breathtaking. The kitchen is beautifully equipped with every appliance you would need and the large island with stools is a lovely spot to prepare food and drinks. Their open floor plan was perfect for our needs, and the reverse living setup was wonderful. The bedrooms are tastefully decorated and the whole house is extremely welcoming. It is evident in every small detail that the owners are very fond of this beautiful beach house. Thank you, Margaret and Paul, for a lovely time. You are very gracious hosts!
LBI is the vacation spot of the Jersey shore! Many excellent restaurants, home made ice cream and fudge shops, miniature golf courses and 18 miles of the best beach in New Jersey. Only a short drive or a ferry ride to Atlantic City with all the shows, casinos and boardwalk. Visit the Barnegat Light, only a bicycle ride away or the bird sanctuary in Holgate.

Lib Dem MP calls for adoption opt-out
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Goodness me, a Lib Dem with an opinion. The Lord works in mysterious ways!
An Early Day Motion (number 142) opposing exemptions has been tabled by the Labour MP for Brighton Kemptown Des Turner, and has been signed by over 120 MPs. It states:"That this House welcomes Part 3 of the Equality Act 2006, which outlaws discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation in the provision of goods, facilities and services; and remains concerned that further exemptions to the proposed regulations beyond the doctrinal exemption proposed by the Government would itself be discriminatory, would undermine the purpose of this House in passing the Act and would stigmatise lesbian and gay people, causing them significant and unnecessary distress."
I am puzzled as to why the minority gay population of this country get so up in arms. Put aside adoption for a moment. If I were to operate something like the oft cited case of a BB business tell me why I should not turn away two gay men if I am faced with the prospect of them sodomising each other in my house (and who knows, maybe in the next room), on my furniture, on my linen, when I believe that such action is against my moral code? Call me prim, call me proper, call me discriminatory, call me what you want but it should be my choice. Nobody is forcing sodomites and lesbians to attend church, pray to Allah, Buddha, God or whoever so why should we be forced to attend on the homosexual community?
your very statement answer why.
ps do you object to married couples sodomising each other on your bed and your linen. Also unmarried couples, people conducting affairs?
I can't help wondering why Alternations Meteroids is reading a gay site in the first place, are you actually Norman Tebbit looking for some sodomy stories to add to your collection? Sadly, you won't find any.Last year, I saw a very decent looking couple who own a BB in the Lake District tell an Asian family that they were terribly sorry but the BB was full and that they had forgotten to take the "Vacancies" sign down. They took the sign down and waved the couple off. Half an hour later, the sign went back. Do you think that was acceptable behaviour? I don't. Would it be acceptable if they did that to a gay couple? Only a few miles from that location is a camp site with a large sign that says "Mixed couples and families only"… Take that as you will.There's no place for bigotry in the service / hospitality industry nowadays. "why should we be forced to attend on the homosexual community?" Are you forced to "attend" on the disabled, black, Irish Asian communities or would you like a special exemption in those cases too?Catholics (and other religious people) choose their religion – and thank goodness they can in this country – but we don't choose our sexuality.
Asteroids or whatever his name is should have every right to refuse services to gay people if it goes against his moral code, gives him the creeps or whatever. Homosexuals DO have a choice, those other groups you mentioned do not. Militant homosexuality is becoming a byword for silencing freedom of speech despite the practice being in only a very small percentage of the population.
