New XPrize Encourages Robotic Ocean Exploration
We know surprisingly little about our oceans. To help with this glaring blind spot, the XPrize has announced a new $7 million contest to foster innovations in ocean exploration technology.
We know surprisingly little about our oceans. To help with this glaring blind spot, the XPrize has announced a new $7 million contest to foster innovations in ocean exploration technology.
Star Trek's tricorder is up there with flying cars and hoverboards as one of those futuristic inventions that always just seems a few years away. We're not quite there yet, but this sensor, which can diagnose diseases from a single drop of blood, is a pretty massive baby step.
The X PRIZE Foundation and Qualcomm are partnering to try to make the Tricorder—Star Trek's famous health-diagnosing gadget—a reality. They are offering up $10 million in purse money. This may be the most practical X PRIZE yet.
The venerable Star Trek tricorder, often imitated but never actually shown 100% emulating the one demonstrated in science fiction, could net an inventor $10 million if they're able to produce the real thing.
Of the 136 fuel-efficient vehicles entered into the 2010 Progressive Insurance Automotive X-Prize, three 100 MPG contenders emerged victorious this week to share in the $10 million prize. These are their names:
Director James Cameron is building a sub that can plunge 36,000 feet beneath the surface of the ocean. If he can pull it off, he could win a $10 million X Prize and shoot footage for an "Avatar" sequel simultaneously.
The X Prize Foundation, which spurs scientific and technological innovation with the greatest of incentives, a big pile of money, hopes we'll have a significantly improved method for cleaning oil by this time next year. The carrot: a cool million.
In today's Remainders: your noggin! It's what chess champ Garry Kasparov used to defeat increasingly sophisticated computer opponents; it's what the contestants on Jeopardy consult for answers (or questions); it's the site of the next X-Prize challenge; and more.
A program called MoonBots will allow children to simulate the conditions of Google's $30 million Lunar X Prize—get rover to the moon, snap HD pics, kick ass—but turns up the quirkiness (and the cool factor) by incorporating Lego.
In addition to the Robotic Moon Race that X Prize announced yesterday, they are also going to start the Lunar Legacy Program. The program will allow regular geeks like you and me to upload a 1MB image and a quick note that will then be copied onto a 17GB DVD and placed on one of the spacecraft heading toward the moon.…
Google and X PRIZE are teaming up to offer $30 million in cash rewards to companies and organizations that can land a robotic rover on the Moon and do a bunch of mission objectives. Their first prize is $25M, second prize is $5M, there's an extra $5M in bonus stuff to the losers.

Oh no
Room was very old and tired looking, nothing a lick of paint and a new carpet wouldn't cure.
Apart from that there is no excuse for the room and en-suite having cob webs everywhere, the corridors smelled, the window was paper thin and rattled, the en-suite covered in mould and also cracked tiles in the shower. The fire door had a 40mm gap underneath it which is illegal and very unsafe. My colleague is frightened of dogs after being attacked by one as a youngster but was greeted every morning by a dog running at us barking its head off which sent him into a panic.
Our window was so thin and ill fitting that when the market right outside of it was being set up at 4.30 in the morning we were woken up and didn't get back to sleep. Another morning we were woken by someone scraping a shovel across the ground at 6.
I'm sorry to have to leave a review as bad as this as all the staff were really nice and friendly but we both couldn't wait to leave. We do this all year round and have stayed in hundreds of hotels & b&bs but this is in the top worst ones. You get stuff like this in London but not in a quaint little village. Again I hate to leave such a negative review but this needs a major overhaul or start charging a lot less

The following membership categories exist for Managers and Directors:.[12]
- Companion (CIIM) - This category is awarded by the Board of the Institute for significant and sustained contribution to the Institute of Interim Management.[13]
- Member (MIIM) - Requires a recognised management or professional qualification AND Is an established Interim manager, who can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the IIM a successful track record of Interim assignments AND Has at least three years' experience in board level/senior management positions OR May be without such a qualification but has at least six years' experience in board level/senior management positions.

We present in this paper a novel fabrication method of making flexible micro electrode array for neural probing. We have successfully produced micro electrode needles array and their corresponding wirings on a flexible polymer membrane through an ingenious variation of UV-LIGA process. This process is suitable for mass production. The first prototype was designed to have sixteen neural probes (4 times 4) with a needle height of 200 mum. Because of the process flexibility, the micro electrodes have the potential to be fabricated on different kinds of polymer membranes, which would be very useful in various targets, especially when "compliance" and "fracture tolerance" are desired. We will introduce our fabrication approach, preparation methods and fabricated results in this paper.

Politics Competing Visions
posted by June 3 at 8:10 PMon
The GOP sent out a press release today w the following headline: Democrat divide over Iraq War hurts Cantwell.
The Democrats sent out a press release today w the following headline:
Convention: State Democrats Unite Behind Maria Cantwell.
From the GOP press release:
As anticipated, Democrats were fiercely divided over the Iraq War, and their incumbent US Senate candidate, Maria Cantwell. Reactions to Cantwell's appearance at the convention were mixed. Many delegates sported "No Warâ buttons, and before her speech chanted "No more war.â Washington State Republican Party Chairman Diane Tebelius said: "There is a clear division within the Democratic Party over Maria Cantwell. The Democratic base's obvious lack of enthusiasm for Cantwell is definitely going to hurt her in November. The rift in the Democratic Party is not going to heal overnight. Washington voters are not going to vote for a party that does not have a clear message."
From the Democratic press release:
Highlighted by a united show of support for Senator Maria Cantwell and a slew of Democratic Congressional and legislative candidates, the convention officially kicked off the 2006 campaign season for the 1000-plus delegates in attendance and Democrats throughout Washington state. Chair of the Washington State Democrats, Dwight Pelz said: "Washington State Democrats are energized and ready to roll up their sleeves to re-elect Maria Cantwell, send fresh new leadership to Congress and expand our majorities in the legislature. The grassroots of the Party has come together and demonstrated our strength and commitment to take back our country from the incompetent and failed leadership of Bush and the Republicans in Congress.â
Dwight Pelz & Diane Tebelius should just get a room already.

I am using this plugin in one of my client site.. and it suddenly stopped working. i have asked in support forum but no replay
The ClickDesk plug-in does not work.
I also tried with just the JavaScript code... and same result. "Too many redirects".
Be careful before you purchase from them. They do not have a good support and do not even respond to your requests once you have paid them.
I tried using the plugin on my site but all the important functions such as analytics and ip details and other things are only for paid members. This tool is pretty much useless for a free user.
This plugin impossible to disable.
the service is acceptable only for paid members.
Impossible to unsubscribe. this is availible only for paid members
Support not answering my questions.
Very bad support! they have charge me without knowing, for 1 day, they keep my money, no refund!! In email they say that i will charged automatically, but i don't read it , as many people, and for one day they kept all the money!
For 15$ they lost a customer!
Do not use this plugin! It caused damage to my theme! First of, i didn't get it to work. So I requested help. Then Scott from Clickdesk logged in to my account and got the plugin working.
BUT: after that, widgets, nav, logo, favicon and some custom fields were not working anymore. I had to do a rollback on my server. Their support sucks big time. I can not stress this enough. This plugin causes confilicts with theme. Just do not use this!
After removing all clickdesk code and plugins, the whole clickdesk thing is again visible on my website and annoys alot.
I contacted with Clickdesk but they are of not any help. Now I have to re-install my whole website.
Clickdesk chat could be a great service but there back end and support sucks.
They don't offer PayPal for the Light version on monthly payment!!!
It happened that there was a problem with my Credit card when billing as due on 18 Jan. they immediately suspended the service and the chat no longer worked, also cannot login to admin back end to change settings, except for change the credit card. Then 10 days later on 27th of Jan they tried again and billed my CC. For the period 18 Jan - 27 Jan i was not able to use the service at all.
So since they charged me on 27 Jan i assumed next charge will be on 27 Feb. but no, today on the 18th of Feb again they charge me, but i did not have funds in the card because i was expecting the charge only on the 27th.
Why you want me to pay for the 10 days 18 - 27 Jan you suspended the service.
Chat support is useless and don't have any authority or power to take any action.
No flexibility;ity and they will rather loose a customer that has been paying for months and probably will longer, than solve the matter.
A ticket was opened : Ticket Number : 363666349
Really dont recomend this service to anyone.

Boom in Gene Testing Raises Questions on Sharing Results
By TAMAR LEWIN
Published: July 21, 2000
As genetic testing becomes increasingly common, those who choose to learn their genetic risks, and the health professionals who treat them, are facing difficult decisions about how -- and whether -- to share the results with family members who share their genes.
And the new genetic information is creating new kinds of rifts, when one family member finds out what another family member does not want to know, or when family members react differently to the same knowledge.
''One woman who'd had ovarian cancer was tested for the breast cancer gene mutations mostly for the sake of her two adult daughters,'' said Katherine Schneider, senior genetics counselor at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. ''But when she told them she had it, they were so devastated that they didn't talk with her for two years. They didn't want to know.
''I tell that story a lot. There's nothing easy about any of this. But before testing, it's important to talk not only about what the information will mean for you, but what it might mean to your sisters, your children, your cousins.''
Genetic tests are now commonplace, what with prenatal tests diagnosing hundreds of syndromes, midlife tests for mutations linked to breast and ovarian cancer, and -- with the human genome newly mapped -- more and more familial disorders.
The scientific advances have created debate about public policy on genetic discrimination. But the private effects on family dynamics are just as complex, as patients and health professionals adjust to thinking about family not just as flesh and blood, but flesh and blood and genes.
Usually, patients are happy to share health information with family members for whom it may be important, often asking the doctor or genetic counselor for a written explanation to pass along.
But when patients want to keep the information to themselves, health professionals may encounter situations that mix social problem and soap opera, and be ethically and legally pulled into uncharted waters.
A young man in Washington State called his genetics counselor to confess a guilty conscience: Several months earlier, he told her, he had made a sperm donation. And while he knew his test results had shown that he had an inheritable syndrome that causes heart trouble and, often, early death, he did not mention it to the sperm bank. Troubled, the counselor called the sperm bank and found that there had, indeed, been successful pregnancies with the man's sperm. She offered to counsel those families but does not know whether the sperm bank even passed on the information.
In a New York family with three adult daughters, the two married daughters know that their mother, who had breast cancer as a young woman, has been tested and found to carry a gene mutation associated with a high risk of breast and ovarian cancer. The mother has forbidden them to tell their unmarried sister, who has always felt herself to be the least attractive, for fear that it might make her less marriageable. They have obeyed, but want the family doctor to make sure she has frequent mammograms and screenings.
Two sisters who know their mother had genetic testing before she died of ovarian cancer want to find out her test results. But the Pennsylvania medical center that did the testing will not release the results to the young women without the consent of their stepfather, who has a dismal relationship with them. The sisters could, of course, have had their own genetic tests, but they had hoped by learning more about their family's history to avoid the process. The center's ethics committee is now revising its consent forms to require all patients tested to specify which family members should have access to the results after their death.
One California genetics counselor tells of her confusion when a couple who had a child with cystic fibrosis came to discuss their risks for future pregnancies, and in providing a family history, the wife mentioned that her estranged half-sister had a baby who died from a serious congenital defect. It was nothing genetic, she assured the counselor. But the counselor knew otherwise: The sister had been an earlier client.
''It just rang a bell in my head,'' the counselor said. ''I remembered the name, and I remembered telling her it was genetic, and she should tell her relatives. I didn't know what to do. But I didn't want to breach confidentiality for either one of them.''
Eventually, she called the previous client on the pretext of a routine records check. ''I played dumb, saying I just happened to have her file on my desk,'' the counselor said, ''and I'd noticed we'd talked about telling her family the results, and I was just following up for the records, wondering if that conversation had taken place, and she said, why, no, it hadn't.
''So I reminded her why it was important. And a few days later, I had a call from the current client, who said the funniest thing had happened, she'd had a call from her half-sister, and there was a genetic problem.''
Often, the decision to pass on information is a delicate one, depending not only on such factors as the relatives' closeness, ages and emotional health, but also the nature of the disease and the severity of the risk. Where there is no treatment, or the risk is small, the case for sharing painful knowledge becomes less compelling. And the need to share information may be temporary, experts say, as the era approaches when complete genetic profiles become a routine part of individual health records. Meanwhile, the cost of testing even a single gene can run from several hundred to several thousand dollars.

Patient Comments: Dupuytren's Contracture - Symptoms
What were your symptoms associated with Dupuytren's contracture?
Comment from: Bill50, 65-74 Male (Patient) Published: October 13
I had surgery for Dupuytren's contracture on my hand several weeks ago. My pinky finger was bent down almost to my palm. Ring finger was bent 90 degrees. Surgery was painless since I was asleep the whole time. I am still going to physiotherapist twice a week. I am trying to teach my hand how to grasp and make a fist. Lots of scar tissue is making recovery hard. I had the symptoms for several years without any pain. I just got tired of only having 3 useable fingers on my hand. I will update this when my hand returns to normal.
Comment from: Ann, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: July 28
I had surgery on my left hand (ring finger) in 2012 for Dupuytren's' contracture. I thought I had been stuck by a catfish barb 2 or 3 years before. I got along really good and have no recurrence on left hand. I now have right hand with this disease. It is very painful, I have had injections with no relief. I have pain while driving when I hold the steering wheel. I am going to get surgery in the fall when temperature is cooler.
Comment from: Annie, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: May 21
I had Dupuytren's contracture on left hand 3 years ago. It started with a place that looked as if a catfish had finned me. It got worse and pain was almost unbearable. I finally had it operated on and thank goodness I did! I had physiotherapy (PT) but have got along very well. Now I have the contracture on the right hand and it is very painful. I will wait until winter time to have it operated on; the brace which is fitted to you is too hot for summer. I got along very well with surgery and PT. I hope you get along good also!
Comment from: Ben, 25-34 Male (Patient) Published: April 16
I have the beginnings of Dupuytren's contracture in both hands with obvious lumps and pits. I have pestered my doctor and I am back to fracture clinic to start the investigative process again, and hope this time I will be taken seriously. As it is my fingers, except thumb and forefinger, all bend towards palm. At rest my hand is claw like. All I can hope for I suppose is that it doesn't get worse as the cords start to make an appearance, and perhaps injections could halt its progression and give me back normal hands. I am only 34, it started out of the blue in late 2012.
Comment from: Scots03deuce, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: January 09
I first developed Dupuytren's contracture in my early 20s. It got quite severe in my left hand and I had surgery. By the time I was in my mid 50s it was full blown in both hands and my knuckles on my left hand as well as a large nodule in the arch of my right foot. I have now had 10 surgical procedures on my hands and right foot as well as carpal tunnel surgery on both hands, severe carpal tunnel! Within 2 months of all my surgeries, it all came back now on my right knuckles as well. Now it appears to be developing in my left foot. It grows in me like a weed. To have all these surgeries and have it develop so rapidly is very rare especially on the knuckles. I can only close my left hand half way and I am left handed. It is annoying and painful. It is prevalent in people of Scotch Irish descent who work excessively with their hands. I have been a fabricator and machinist most of my life and can no longer do these things. My father had it fairly severe in both hands but he passed when I was 8 years old.
Comment from: WrongDiagnosis?, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: November 18
I was diagnosed with Dupuytren's contracture two years ago. I had broken a bone in my hand and after having the cast removed I had a bump at the point of the break. I thought it was a bone that had not healed properly but was told it was scar tissue and the beginning of Dupuytren's contracture. The 'scar' tissue has increased and is, indeed, pulling my fingers in toward my palm. My specialist will offer no treatment and says to wait until the collagen-type injection is approved here. I have read that the collagen substance is non-specific and can go into other areas and dissolve tissue (i.e. tendons). I have no interest in having that kind of therapy. I am an active, athletic person and want to stay that way. As far as I can see there is still no really good option on the horizon.
Comment from: jstkd4, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: October 18
I have Dupuytren's in both hands. The problem I have is that I have a lot of pain in both hands. The knuckles on my index finger and my thumb are very painful. I can't actually bend my index fingers. They stay straight while the other three fingers of my hand want to bend. My doctor just says there is nothing to do. I am not convinced that the knuckle pain is from Dupuytren's.

K+S Proposes 82% Dividend Cut to Pay for Canada Legacy Mine
K+S AG, Europe's largest potash supplier, wants to cut the annual dividend by 82 percent, retaining part of the cash to pay for its mine in Canada. The stock fell the most in almost six weeks in Frankfurt trading.
The dividend proposal is 0.25 euro cents a share, a payout ratio of 11 percent based on 2013's adjusted earnings after tax, the Kassel, Germany-based company said today in a statement. K+S, which paid 1.40 euros the previous year, plans to return to its dividend policy of paying 40 percent to 50 percent "as soon as possible."
Chief Executive Officer Norbert Steiner is pushing ahead with the $4 billion development of the company's new Legacy mine in Canada. K+S completed a test cavern last month, even after global potash prices fell as much as 24 percent after Russian competitor OAO Uralkali exited an export sales venture with Belarus.
"Uncertainty in the market for potash and magnesium products as well as major investments planned for the long-term strengthening of the company" are the reasons for deviating from the usual dividend policy, K+S said today.
The shares dropped as much as 3.6 percent, the steepest intraday decline since Jan. 30. The stock was down 2 percent as of 4:15 p.m. in Frankfurt. K+S has gained 10 percent this year for a market value of 4.7 billion euros ($6.5 billion).
Shorted Stock
Earnings before interest, tax and excluding some hedging transactions -- dubbed Ebit I by the company -- declined 18 percent to 656 million euros last year, beating a 633.9 million-euro analyst estimate. Sales were 3.95 billion euros, little changed from a year earlier. Analysts had predicted 3.86 billion euros, according to a Bloomberg survey.
Investors have been betting on K+S's decline since Uralkali's announcement at the end of July, with 9.8 percent of the company's stock shorted, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Citadel Europe LLP and Emerging Sovereign Group LLC have increased their short positions, according to filings in February and March. The biggest short position is still held by hedge fund Viking Global Investors LP, which has a negative bet on 1.7 percent of the German company's shares, the data shows.
Steiner has started a 500 million-euro savings program over three years in response to lower potash prices. The bulk of the planned savings, under a program named Fit for the Future, will stem from material costs, though the company is also considering job cuts, K+S said in November.
Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. forecast 2014 earnings that trailed estimates in January. The Canadian company predicted profit as much as 30 percent lower than predicted in a Bloomberg survey of analysts.


text: I use WordPress at my blog, which is hosted on GoDaddy. (http://echoesinthewind.net/) I use the Kubrick theme, and sometime over the weekend, the font size on the sidebar increased, knocking the sidebar down below the posts. This only happens when I am showing posts. When I view a page, click a tag or do a search, the sidebar font goes back to normal and the sidebar appears on the right side of the page, as is should. (For the time being, I made a new page and set that as the default view, and the font size of the sidebar was normal.) I went to the other themes offered, did previews, and the same thing took place, so switching themes is not an option (nor is it my preference). I am limited in what I can do; I do not know how to access the HTML for the theme. Can someone help?

Gukje Market: "Shopping free-for-all" Top 5 Page for this destination Busan Shopping Tip by amambaw
Busan Shopping: 18 reviews and 30 photos
The Gukje Market is everything good about Korean open air markets. The market is huge, probably 8-10 square blocks of shopping. There are tons of little alleys to get lost down, lots to see, and tons of people to jostle around with. The best thing about Gukje is that you can find anything you might want, and it's ultra-cheap.
Bartering isn't a really standard practice, from what I've found. You can try, but generally everything is already really inexpensive, so I don't feel the need (I know, you're thinking this is a major sin for future travellers). If you're not willing to pay something for an item, just walk away. You might be offered a better deal, or you'll likely find it cheaper elsewhere.
What to buy: Anything - clothes, accessories, pottery, housewares, electronics, alcohol, imports, etc etc etc....
It's not all great quality, particularly the clothes, but it's cheap, and you can get lots!
What to pay: Although the market is full of inexpensive vendors, you can spend a ton of money! Clothes (shirts) run between 5000-20000 W, alcohol is cheap, under 20000 W for a litre of Bacardi rum... etc.
Address: Nampo-Dong
Directions: Get off at the Jagalchi subway stop (line 1), and look for the exit labelled Gukje Market. Pretty self-explanatory from there! Go get lost!

New Native American Saint Kateri Tekakwitha Stirs Mixed Emotions
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Sister Kateri Mitchell was born and raised on the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation along the St. Lawrence River. She grew up hearing stories about Kateri Tekakwitha, the 17th-century Mohawk woman who will be declared a saint in the Roman Catholic Church on Sunday.
She has long admired Tekakwitha for her steadfast faith and her ability to bridge Native American spirituality with Catholic traditions. In 1961, Mitchell joined the Sisters of St. Anne, and since 1998 she has served as executive director of the Tekakwitha Conference in Great Falls, Mont., a group that has spread Tekakwitha's story and prayed for her canonization since 1939.
"We've been waiting a long time for this," she said of the canonization at the Vatican. "It's a great validation."

He attempted to castrate himself and tried to commit suicide twice while incarcerated, according to a court order.

There's nothing plain about this vanilla. Pure. Organic. Exotic. Anyone who calls our vanilla "plain" just doesn't know beans. This extra-rich and creamy vanilla is perfect for baking and bears social benefits that make it all the more sweet.
Our extract is made using the highest quality, Bourbon vanilla beans from Madagascar.
Full. Rich. Buttery smooth. This is the standard flavor imagined when thinking of vanilla ice cream.
Suggested Use
Vanilla Soda Bread
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/3 cup cane sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 cups 2% milk
1/4 cup vanilla extract
1/4 cup butter, melted
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9 x 7-inch baking pan.
Combine all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Stir milk, egg and vanilla together and add to dry ingredients. Stir until just moist. Stir in melted butter.
Pour into pan. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until center tests done with a fork.
Product should be stored tightly sealed and away from fluctuating or extreme temperatures and light.
Organic vanilla bean extractives in water, organic alcohol.
I think you can really smell and taste the alcohol in this one. Especially when you use too much - which is quite easy to do, because of the big opening on top. I have to pour it in to the lid before adding it to my food, so I won't pour out too much. I like the fact that it's orcanic and has few ingredients, though.
In the United States, in order for a vanilla extract to be called pure, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires that the solution contains a minimum 35% of alcohol and 100g of vanilla beans per litre (13.35 ounces per gallon).[refer to Food and Drug Administration (April 1, 2010). "Food and Drugs, Chapter I, Subchapter A, Food for Human Consumption, Part 169—Food Dressings and Flavorings"] ---- so, of course this has a high alcohol content! It is a requirement!! Come on people, be fair in your criticism. Besides, the alcohol burns away in cooking/baking, so what's the problem?
My 1st organic vanilla extract
Posted by 4990732731447935273 on Jul 22, 2016
Hmm. .. as I ve been using imitation vanilla essence for yrs nw. Was happy to find this as it's organic so it's healthier. Honestly I was disappointed after I had opened it, Smells really mild. Bright side is I m using a healthy choice.

This was a good vanilla extract. Happy it's organic.

Those terrible activist judges..!!
They should let the legislatures decide (NY)...no, let the people choose(most recently FL joins the dozens of other states)...actually, leave it to the courts(CA)...
Oh, let's just agree that it's up to the states to figure out on their own and that will make me look like a respectable Democrat (and an ignorant coward at the same time).
I just haven't crossed that bridge yet, goldern it.
It makes sense to gather the support of the ex-gay evangelicals first in the surge to achieve equality for same sex families.
Actually, Patrick, none of the states have a vote for federal judges. They are all appointed by the President and then confirmed (or not) by the Congress.
We've got a situation here were one group fails (getting the needed signatures) and an Activist judge says they can behave as if they have succeeded. But the losers only get away with this because the target is Gay Americans. NO OTHER GROUP faces this sort of institutional discrimination with sanction by the law.
Choice quote from the anti-gay crusaders:
"It's a fundamental right to participate in democracy," Nimocks said.
The federal U.S. District Judge Michael W. Mosman, who was appointed by the Republican Bush administration, is now acting as a judicial activist to stop implementation of our state domestic partnership law that was recently passed by the Oregon Legislature and signed into law by the Governor.
The openly Mormon Judge Mosman was also responsible for the 1986 Supreme Court's faulty decision upholding laws against certain consensual sex acts (i.e. sodomy defined as either oral or anal sex) done by adults in private. Justice Lewis Powell's deciding vote was based on Mosman's faulty legal advice. After retiring, Powell publicly regretted his decision.
Fortunately, Mosman's ruling doesn't affect a companion state law that will take effect on January 1, 2008 that bars discrimination against gays in work, housing and public places. However, the opponents of domestic partnerships also want to legalize discrimination with a ballot initiative.
Republicans are such hypocrites to denounce activist judges and then refuse to impeach activist judges like Mosman.
I am aware of that 5280. In fact, my very own precious senator, Dianne Frankenstein helped approve Bush's appointment of a multi-bigot to the bench against the wishes of everyone except the republicans.
My comment refers to the mealy mouthed positions of politicians that refuse to speak about the harm enforced on same sex families while they scramble for ways to enable state and federal discrimination and secure their election like they are passing a hot potato.
The first two paragraphs reflect the circuitous foolishness that is perpetuated by the politicians represented in the following paragraphs (Clinton, Edwards, then Obama).
The worst part of all is that many people, gay and straight, refuse to push these candidates on their lack of candor and courage and consequently the situation perpetuates like the demise of Kitty Genovese.
I'm sure someone else will do the right thing...eventually.
As a lawyer, without having read the decision, it does seem unusual for the judge to rule that backers of an initiative have a right to an injunction blocking the implementation of a law, if there's a question as to whether they've gathered enough signatures to support an initiative challenging the law.
I wouldn't be surprised to see the Ninth Circuit dissolve this injunction if it can be immediately appealed.
yell and scream it!
What @7 said. Plus, where does a federal judge get off holding that there is some fundamental right to the state's referendum process? I thought this was hokey when it was filed. Is federalism dead?

Note that it's from New Zealand.
Typical viewpoint from The Rest Of The World, sorry. This is the sort of thing we say when the USA is not in the room.
The USA has people who think it is reasonable to give death causing devices to five year olds, what are we supposed to think about the powers-that-be? And it is very obvious that the NRA is that power.
Oh, and Ima: I've never been to Germany, so you may want to have another guess. Sorry, I'm not a Nazi either.
I think the author of this cartoon ran out of material on this subject in the cartoon just before this one.
I'm waiting to see where the NRA comes down on this "printable gun" situation. Do they stand by their "a gun in every hand" stance, or do they cave into the gun manufacturers and back efforts to ban them?
This is related to that five year old who shot his sister dead with a "child's gun", right?
What did the NRA say about those things?
Since you have very intelligently worded posts with a better grasp of English than most of the American posters here, I think we all assumed you were German. Where are you from?
BTW, when I lived in Europe during the Bush administration, I was privy to those conversations because everyone assumed I was Canadian (my accent is similar and I speak French with apparently Canadian inflections). People really do believe that the US is full of gun-toting crazies afraid of their own shadows.
The printable guns only fire one shot and then fail. And the printers cost thousands of dollars. So it may be awhile before the argument comes up in Congress.
Yes but now you can make a plastic gun to bypass metal detectors.
hey Rocky, maybe you can get the reference to your statement posted. In the meantime, here is a video from the BBC that shows the pistol being fired. Now true, it was only fired once in two demonstrations, but note the "AR!% style" gun that looks to have a printable part and a magazine installed on the table during the demo. Also, the one shot pistol did not look as if it could not be fired again. So what exactly makes you say the pistol will fail if reloaded?
A big part of the perception is the entertainment industry, which shows a lot of gun violence.
However, looking from the outside, there has always been a very vocal pro-gun crowd here, claiming the second amendment gives them the right to own as many guns as they want, coupled with incidents like Columbine and Waco, where people had arsenals of weapons. The perception is that Americans love their guns because of a fear that they need them to protect themselves from each other constantly. The fact that our crime rate has dropped is irrelevant – we are showing our fear by saying "we need our guns to protect ourselves". From what? Less crime should make it less necessary.
Another irony is that gun ownership has dropped from nearly 50% in the seventies to around 30% today. Since more guns are being sold than ever before, this means that those that own guns most likely own multiple guns.
Wow, apparently someone has come up with a reinforced model that fired 600 rounds before failing. The first AR-15 copy in resin fired 6 rounds before splintering.
Looks like Congress needs to act faster than I thought.
Plenty of Nazis in the USA right now, right Ms Ima?
-they believe in "Pro Life" ideas
-war is good
-immigrants (not white) are bad
-free enterprise
-separation of the races (sic)
-the nuclear family
-child discipline
-death penalty
-no welfare
-militarist Christianity
-global crusade
Need I go on?
It will be only a matter of time before the process is perfected. Though it is been illegal to make and own plastic guns since 1988.
It is estimated that about 45% of the adult population are behind most of the massive gun and ammo buys recently.
Many sovereign nations have experienced the pain of mass shootings. In April 1996, a man armed with two semiautomatic weapons killed 35 people in Australia. Despite considerable opposition, the government at the time swiftly legislated for national laws, and large-scale buy-back schemes were instituted . One fifth of the stock of firearms in Australia were removed. After these actions, the rate of firearm-related deaths was cut in half. In the 18 years before 1996, there were 13 mass shootings. There have been none since. Patrick D. Mahar,M.B.,B.S.,L.L.B. Univ. of Melbourme/ and Daniel T Breen, M.B.,B.S. from the N, England Journal of Medicine,368;19, Pg1846, May 9, 2013
The oddity about the Australian firearms law is that there was no drop in the murder rate year on year. 2010 and 2011 saw a very significant drop in the murder rate, but it isn't known whether that is a statistical aberration or not.

i really try to find products that are made in america. these socks are high quality im very rough on foot wear and socks i have had 3 pairs of these for over 2 years now and they still stay up on my legs all day. i wear them year round mostly for the ability to wick the moisture away from my feet. i work 12 hour shifts usualy and am on my feet most of the day they remind me of the socks that we used to get when i was younger from a mill in ft payne alabama when they still had sock mills on every corner good product and if you think about them lasting two years from being worn every day there a great value
Socks were purchased to wear on ski trips, with hiking shoes and snow shoes. They turned out to be super thick so most likely only be worn for snowboarding, as they are too thick for our shoes.
Better for shoe size 10-12.
Bought same brand from store a couple of years ago and love them. Could never find them in the store recently, so I searched online. Ordered five packages, 10 pairs. Very disappointed with quality of the ones I ordered on Walmart.com. Don't even look the same. Poor sewing. Look rough. Slide on feet. When I take off my boots the heel area is always worked up to the side of my foot. Same ol same ol. Find something you like, wait a year and someone will find a way to make it to a less quality standard.
My husband received these socks on a warm day. The next day it was freezing and he was very happy he had them to wear. Wool and Wool blend will keep the warmth even if your toes are swimming in water.
they will come in good uses once winter gets here

Many decisions involve multiple stages of choices and events, and these decisions can be represented graphically as decision trees. Optimal decision strategies for decision trees are commonly determined by a backward induction analysis that demands adherence to three fundamental consistency principles: dynamic, consequential, and strategic. Previous research (Busemeyer et al. 2000, J. Exp. Psychol. Gen. 129, 530) found that decision-makers tend to exhibit violations of dynamic and strategic consistency at rates significantly higher than choice inconsistency across various levels of potential reward. The current research extends these findings under new conditions; specifically, it explores the extent to which these principles are violated as a function of the planning horizon length of the decision tree. Results from two experiments suggest that dynamic inconsistency increases as tree length increases; these results are explained within a dynamic approach–avoidance framework.

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Six oral-themed scenes. Starting number very strong, with Charlene Aspen and Claudia De Corazon cock-gobbling two guys in a backstage make-up room before Charlene goes on a Dating Game parody called The Swallowing Game. She downs spoo from six guys before the scene fades out. Also notable is the return of wistful Diasi from the first I Swallow. A little more self-confident now, she is still winningly shy and unassuming. Rodney ends the scene with an adamant "Next time, we fuck!" Something to look forward to. Closer (which would make seven) is a peeing scene, where Casey lets fly in a bathtub as Rodney points the camera up at her from the side.
There's a kind of nose-thumbing cool to Rodney's work that gets better the more one sees of it. You watch, he'll make Editor's Choice yet.

"There's definitely a spiritual base here," said Stephen Zeigler, a photographer and downtown gallery owner who sat lotus-style on a meditation pillow in front of his tent one recent day. "But not so much a religious base, and definitely not an organized religious base."
Zeigler said he used to identify as a Buddhist but now finds such labels limiting. He was struck, however, by the dearth of self-identified Christians at the Occupy L.A. site. "Where are they?" he asked.
It is a good question, said Ryan Rice, a 26-year-old who said he left his studies at Chapman University so he could join the "social revolution." He is helping with a newspaper planned for the Occupy L.A. movement.
Speaking of religious involvement in the protest, he said, "There has been an absence of that outreach so far. And I see that as a negative."
"We all say, 'WWJD' — What Would Jesus Do?" he added. "He would be here. Martin Luther King would be here. The Dalai Lama would be here. What we're doing is in line with all the major religions."
There hasn't been a complete absence of organized religion at the City Hall camp. Aside from the Jewish group that erected the sukkah, at least two churches — All Saints Episcopal in Pasadena and the Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica — have sent members to show support. But they have been the exception.
That partly reflects the nature of those drawn to the event: young, skeptical, typically leery of organizations. "There's a rejection of the establishment," said Rice, "and that may be why there's a rejection of religion as an establishment."
It may also be a reflection of wariness on the part of churches to ally themselves with a movement that is not clearly defined and is more than a little scruffy around the edges.
"It strikes me as a little bit of a gamble for them," said Mark Tooley, president of the conservative Institute on Religion and Democracy. "I don't see Occupation having a lot of appeal for the average suburban, evangelical churchgoer."
Occupy Wall Street has had a more vigorous religious presence than its L.A. offshoot, with support coming from nearby churches and various progressive, faith-based organizations.
Although there have been accusations of anti-Semitic elements in the movement, Occupy Wall Street has also had a robust Jewish presence, including a large outdoor religious service on Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement.
And in one of most resonant images of the occupation, an ecumenical group marched with a golden calf to the camp at Zuccotti Park, turning the Wall Street bull into a biblical symbol of greed and idolatry.
Butler, of Faith in Public Life, participated in that demonstration and said she sees a lot of excitement about the Occupy movement in the faith-based community. She believes it could become a rallying point that will reinvigorate the religious left.
"Like a lot of things ... it takes a while for churches to get organized," she said. "But you are seeing folks get organized. ... There's a natural fit there, in other words. These values are our values."

School bus accident left 1 student injured
Published: Wednesday, March 30, 2011 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 29, 2011 at 7:40 p.m.
One student suffered a bruised rib during a school bus accident Monday in Fletcher, a parent reported Tuesday.
Shannon Sparks' 12-year-old daughter was riding the bus on her way home from Mills River Elementary when the bus driver pulled out in front of a vehicle at the intersection of Naples Road and Old Naples Road.
The fifth-grader was in a seat near the front of the bus, and the impact forced her back and side to hit a metal bar under the window, Sparks said.
Initially, no injuries were reported, but the girl told EMS personnel she was feeling back pain. EMS took the student and Sparks to Park Ridge Health.
At the hospital, X-rays revealed the girl had a bruised rib, Sparks said. She was prescribed Motrin and has follow-up appointments with a physician.
The N.C. Highway Patrol charged the bus driver with failure to yield.

In this paper, we study the generalized Marcum Q-function Q nu(a, b), where a, nu > 0 and b ges 0. Our aim is to extend the results of Corazza and Ferrari (IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, vol. 48, pp. 3003-3008, 2002) to the generalized Marcum Q-function in order to deduce some new tight lower and upper bounds. The key tools in our proofs are some monotonicity properties of certain functions involving the modified Bessel function of the first kind and some classical inequalities, i.e., the Cauchy-Buniakowski-Schwarz and Chebyshev integral inequalities. These bounds are shown to be very tight for large b, i.e., the relative errors of our bounds converge to zero as b increases. Both theoretical analysis and numerical results are provided to show the tightness of our bounds.

Lung Disease & Respiratory Health Center
Diseases From Animals -- What's Next?
What Else? continued...
One old disease is emerging as a new threat: Dengue virus. Dengue, spread by mosquitoes, has been around for a long time. But now several types of dengue virus circulate in the same tropical regions. That's a problem. A person who's had one kind of dengue can get a much more serious disease -- dengue hemorrhagic fever -- if infected with a second kind of dengue. "Dengue is always a concern," Ksiazek admits. "We have gone from a situation where in the late 50s, the mosquito that carries dengue was under control. That ended in the late 60s or early 70s. Now dengue hemorrhagic fever has appeared. Initially it was in Southeast Asia, now it has jumped into the Americas and into other parts of Asia. It is something that CDC ... [is] watching closely."
Learning From Experience
Anthrax attacks and SARS outbreaks have made us warier if not wiser, says George A. Pankey, MD, director of infectious diseases research at Ochsner Clinic Foundation, New Orleans.
"I think the surveillance is better now as a result of the bioterror threat," Pankey tells WebMD. "Local labs and a lot of infectious disease doctors are attuned to unusual things happening. And I think public health services around country are very aware.... In general we are a lot better off then we were 20 years ago."
That's true -- but more must be done, says Lawrence T. Glickman, VMD, DrPH, professor of veterinary epidemiology and environmental health at the Purdue University School of Veterinary Medicine.
"Our ability to diagnose viruses is better now," Glickman notes. "But I think we need better reporting systems for both people and animals. I think both sides are working on that. Unfortunately we don't have a CDC for animals, so a lot of what happens in pets -- especially exotic pets -- is unknown."
Watching the Animals
If new diseases come from animals, it's a good idea to keep an eye on them. That's exactly what Glickman is doing. In collaboration with the CDC and the nation's largest chain of pet hospitals, he and his colleagues are amassing a huge database on cat and dog health.

Santos unhappy with Arsenal return! by Ash
Rarely does there seem to be mutual feelings at the club between players and the fans, but the Arsenal left back Andre Santos has stated his disappointment in having to return to Arsenal. Surely this means he will be gone this summer no matter what because I firmly believe the club wanted to sell him before hand, but they will definitely look to let him go after hearing that he no longer wants to stay at the club.
