Suppose X_1,X_2,...,X_n are n Brownian motions with respect to the same filtration such that X_1 is independent of X_j for all j=2,...,n. Is it true that X_1 is independent of (X_2,...,X_n)?
This is clearly false. Take X independent of Y and Z=integral of sgn(X_s)dY_s. Then if your result is true we would have X independent of the cross vriation of Y and Z which is integral of sgn(X_s)ds. This is false.

Summer Algebra 1bOccasionally, there are students at Christopher Dock that would like to take Algebra 1b over the summer. By doing so, they can skip over this course and go directly in to Geometry. Students who choose to go this route must get teacher approval ahead of time. They will also be required to pass a final exam by the end of the summer before they will be allowed into Geometry. Students who complete Algebra 1b over the summer will not receive any additional credits towards their math requirement for graduation.
Summer Sylabus
Parent GuideThe CPM Parent Guide will be used as the primary tool for learning the content of chapters 7-11. The Parent Guide provides step by step examples for the topics studied in Algebra 1. Following each block of examples is a set of practice problems with answers. Use the link below to access the different chapters of the Parent Guide.
Students are expected to read and work through all topics for chapters 7-11. Students should solve all of the problems for each topic. Each student should keep track off all of their work by placing all of their problems in a spiral notebook. This notebook may be collected at the end of the summer.
Additional ProblemsAlong with working through the Parent Guide, students will be required to complete some additional problems from the CPM Algebra Connections textbook. These additional problems will challenge the student to apply their new knowledge to contextual situations. These extra problems are listed below. Answers to these questions are also posted for each chapter.

Muslims arriving in Mecca for the haj pilgrimage this year will be greeted with 4,000 new speakers and a state-of-the-art sound system at the city's grand mosque, part of a controversial redevelopment that has angered many Muslims.
Already one of the largest and most powerful systems on the planet, worshippers will now hear the mosque's call to prayer up to six miles away. Faras al-Saadi, the operations director for the grand mosque, said that more worshippers could now take part in prayers without travelling to the site during busy periods.

Boosting minority participation at all levels of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education should be an urgent national priority, according to a report released last week. This is because U.S. jobs in science and engineering are forecast to grow in coming years, yet non-U.S. citizens are accounting for nearly all of the growth in STEM doctorates. The report from the National Academies offered two key recommendations for the short term. One involves providing strong . . .

Yes you are right, most edits to skinconf are immediately reflected when doing 'forrest site'. The part that has me perplexed is with the "breadcrumb trail". When i edit that part of skinconf then the changes do not take effect until i do the 'build dist' of xml-forrest. Then when i do the 'forrest site' again the changes will show. --David

Is there any 'Auto-complete polygon' tool in QGIS, similar to the one existing in ArcGIS?
Yes, you can set snapping tolerance (e.g. to vertex and segment) you can then over digitize. A new polygon will only be created to the edge of an existing polygon. This setting can be enabled through the Settings Menu> Project Properties> General tab.
From the Settings > Snapping Options dialogue:
Under 'Snapping Mode' choose 'Advanced'
1) Check the box next to the layer you want to 'auto-complete' to (to enable snapping)
Now digitize a new polygon ensuring you are either starting and stopping the sketch inside the original polygon, or at least crossing the original polygon where you want to auto-complete your new polygon along.

Our economy is based largely on fantasy, a flight from reality that has led to a series of unsustainable economic choices and the crisis we are now experiencing. In contrast, the idea of the common good is based on a realistic understanding of limits, both human and economic. It is a concept that can help us understand and right our current situation.
The present economic crisis took off when high-risk mortgages were issued to homebuyers on the fanciful assumption that the "American Dream" of home ownership could be paid for by an inevitable rise in home values. Such a belief was not based on historical precedent. Rather, it was fueled by the demand caused by the loans themselves. To stimulate further demand, banks came up with a quick-and-easy means to pass along the risk associated with home lending by packaging and selling this high-risk consumer debt as securities called "collateralized debt obligations." Ratings firms like Moody's applied AAA designations to these securities, facilitating the process. The CDOs were then listed by investment firms, hedge funds, and banks as assets, and used as collateral to borrow more money. Money was being made on borrowed money, and debt was being used as collateral.
Traditionally, the idea of home ownership had been based on the slow accumulation of equity, as the principal on the debt was paid down, and on the relationship established between...

LEWISTON, N.Y. (AP) -- Rapper Big Sean has pleaded guilty to a
misdemeanor charge of unlawful imprisonment stemming from a
backstage incident at an upstate New York concert over the summer.
The Niagara Gazette (http://bit.ly/vL1z1J ) reports that the Detroit rapper, whose real name is Sean Anderson, entered the plea Wednesday as part of an agreement with Niagara County prosecutors.
A co-defendant, Willie Hansbro, also pleaded guilty.
The two were charged in August with forcible touching, unlawful
imprisonment and sex abuse after a 17-year-old told police she was
sexually assaulted during a concert. Authorities didn't release details.
Prosecutors say the victim agreed to the plea deals.
Anderson didn't comment after entering his plea and paying a $750 fine. His lawyer, Scott Leemon, says the rapper denies there was any sexual misconduct.

Long River Cruise: Nice view, not so nice food
It's undeniable that the Loboc River cruise is just amazing. Add the sumptous feast of local food while cruising the experience is just amazing. That was the ideal purpose of our trip, but our tour guide brought us to this restaurant which served us with blandly flavored local cuisine and unappetizingly cooked. It was plentiful but you wouldn't be asking for another bite after your first. We didn't have stomach aches but surely our stomachs are craving for a better food than they served.
Favorite Dish: None

Cafe Lawis: Heavenly pinoy food
This restaurant is an old stone house just beside Dauis Church. It has its best location and a homely ambiance. The place had a large patio where you'd love to just sit and stare at the calm river. The food in the menu consist of native Filipino dishes and desserts. The humba and adobo was delicious. It has a gift shop inside.

Guiseppe Pizzaria & Sicilian Roast: Best Italian Food in Panglao and Bohol
Excellent. This is truly one of the best places to dine in Bohol if you have the chance to eat there. Appropriate pricing, outstanding service, and delicious non-Filipino food. Bohol has many great tasting local menu items, but Guiseppe's brings the taste of Italy, Sicily to be specific to your tastebuds. I have eaten there many times and every time was excellent, whether with a large group or just my wife (a Boholana) and myself. Good wine selection and the food selection is very accommodating. Normally there is a daily special that is truly unique considering the international food scene in Bohol is quite limited. The staff is friendly and very approachable, plenty of seating, facility is modern, price is appropriate and CR or bathrooms very clean. Before, they were closed on Mondays, not anymore, open 7 days a week as of June 2012 my last visit. Next time I eat there I will post photos of the delicious food. Can't wait to go back again. If you are visiting Bohol, you cannot miss this restaurant.
Favorite Dish: The egg plant appetizer is a great starter covered with real mozzarella cheese and roasted tomatoes, followed with a cream dory served with some original authentic risotto. I feel this is one of their best dishes although the lamb is excellent too. Expect to pay for the quality food; however, not much more than you pay for lesser quality cuisine other place in Bohol. The serving size is considered large compared to local sizes. You will have to pay for each individual drink.

McDonalds: Fast food in Bohol
Staff are friendly and polite speaking English, Tagalog and Visayan, the food is the same quality you should expect at any McDonalds world wide, sometimes seating is short of supply during most meals as Bohol has only 1 McDonalds for the entire island in Tagbilaran. Wi-Fi is normally working, ask staff for the password to login while you eat. The restaurant is very clean, air-conditioned and very affordable compared to local food prices. The staff works diligently to get customers their orders in a very timely manner.
Parking fee of 100 Php for the BQ Mall Parking area but is consumable (you can turn your ticket in for a 100 Php discount in stores in the mall). Parking across from BQ Mall at City Square Mall is 25 Php for Motorcycles and 35 Php for vehicles.
Be expected to be approached on your walk to McDonalds by profession syndicate Mangyan beggars. Do not confuse these people with local Boholanos. Most Boholanos would rather die that take a hand out, especially in public. The Mangyan beggars are easy to spot, normally dressed overly poor and carrying one small child asking for money for food for them and the child. If you offer them food, or something from the restaurant your attending, they will just scowl and walk away. Even if you offer them to dine with you, they refuse only wanting the money. They congregate on the side street of McDonalds next to the Metro Bank ATM where many motorcycles are parked. These are the same beggars you will find in any major city in the Visayas or Mindanao, please do not associate them with the local population.
There is only one Courtesy Room (bathroom/restroom), and it is Unisex and is normally occupied by someone fixing their hair. A CR is located on the 3rd floor of the BQ Mall, and cost 10 Php for use. The CR is always clean with vacancy but you will need your own tissue. There is also a CR located within the grocery store on the 1st floor that will cost 10 Php for use it is also clean and will require you own toiletries.
If you are on vacation, need a quick inexpensive meal with a good atmosphere, McDonalds is one place that you can rely on getting what you expected.
Favorite Dish: McSaver Chicken sandwich - 39 Php and delicious.

Olegario Cafe at Clarin Residence: Ginataan Crab......@ Olegario Cafe
It is an old ancestral house
transformed into a cafe/restaurant........
What makes this famous is that ...they have this special menu and special ingredient....
which is the crab.....they get it in their own backyard......(they are near the beach that is why ..........the crabs are coming out from the holes in their...backyard)
Unique isn't it..........
The downpoint only is that staff are not well trained to interact with guests........
and second...they should let the tourist know...that their main menu should be ordered one day in advance,,,,,,
Because guest go there because of the crab menu...not the typical adobo or mechado.....dishes
got it.........
Favorite Dish: Should be the Ginataang Alimango....but i did not get the chance to eat this because if you order this It should be one day in advance....the menu is hard to cook and will take long hours.......
But i ordered their other menu because its alredy lunch and the next restaurant will take sometime.......

Chicken Ati-Atihan: Awesome and cheap
Not only is it famous and easy to find (ask any trike driver), it is super cheap. A leg of chicken and some rice as about 80 peso when I went, and it came out quickly. We ordered 3 for 2 people. Garlic rice is nice too.
Favorite Dish: The regular chicken legs and rice combo was good. The basic item. My wife ordered some broiling pan of chicken. It sucked. Pretty much all bones and almost no meat.
Directions: In Tagbiliran, about 3 minutes on a trike from BQ Mall.Add to your Trip Planner
Isis Restaurant: Authentic Thai Food
The food at Isis Bungalows restaurant, 'Isis Restaurant' was excellent. The chef is from Thailand (a lady) who works in the evenings and treains her staff to cook authentic Thai food.
Favorite Dish: I had the red curry with rice. It was excellent. My whole family liked it, even my Mother-in- Law, who rarely eats any foreign food.
Address: Isis Bungalows
Directions: It is right in Isis Bungalows, to the west of Alona Beach. It's not hard to find.
Bohol Bee Farm: Organic Salad Galore
You have to exert extra efforts to visit the place but it's worth the trip. Getting there, we took the habal-habal. After passing through a stony and dusty path, we were able to reach BBF, which was good since hunger is setting in. My friend and I ordered Grilled Tanigue and Grilled Squid with brown rice and organic salad (consisting of cultured lettuce and flowers which I think was gumamela) plus our own choice of fruit shake. Likewise added to our meal was 'sinigang na hipon'... Yummy!! We were surprised to be served with complimentary 'camote' bread with three different spreads -- mango, honey and pesto. All of which tasted exceptional, we couldn't help but buy those loaves and spreads on our way back to the hostel. After eating, you would want to check out the seaview or take pictures from their massage area or scan their gift shop for pasalubong.
Favorite Dish: Grilled squid is just one of them. =)

Bohol Bee Farm: Bohol won't be complete without eating here
Food was great. Your trip won't be complete without trying out the buffet in Bohol Bee farm. We had dinner here and it costs us 550php. 500 for payment, and 50 for service charge i think. The food is organic, and their food was not regular food. The seafood lasagna tasted normal, but everything else was special!

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Sep 01st, 2003
Running Time: 87
Company: Dreamland USA
Cast: Lena Ramone, George Kaplan, Desert Rose, Anthony Hardwood, Dick Smothers Jr., Layla-Jade, Mercedes Ashley, Tony Tedeschi, Cassie Young
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
OK, Dick Smothers Jr. has proved himself to be an able porn stud. Push this celebrity novelty as long as the 15 minutes will last and stock it strong. - Dirty Bob
In what is supposed to be his first role (a screen test), Dick Smothers Jr. takes on Mercedes Ashley like a pro. He maintains with no problem and guides her through an assortment of positions. Way to go, Dick.
The remaining scenes - which are unconnected to Smothers - are obviously padding, but they also stand alone as fine fucking. Layla-Jade and Tony Tedeschi do their usual symbiotic spit swapping. And so it goes until Smothers returns for another sex event with Lena Ramone. Well done.
Smothers may be the big name star, but George Kaplan is the real star of this video. In what can best be described as a cross between acting like Dudley Moore and Mr. French, Kaplan is incredibly watchable in his non-sex role that undoubtedly deserves a pre-nom in this category. Thanks to a decent script by Cash Markman, Kaplan plays a pompous, pontificating weasel sniffing out sensationalism. His look is priceless when Lena Ramone, upon being asked if she has ever been asked to do anything in the business that totally repulsed her, replied in the affirmative and revealed that she was told to blow Kaplan to get good press. Fortunately, this never happened.

"Ghostbusters": 10 Facts About the Franchise You Thought You Knew
Conventions | A number of cosplayers at London's MCM Comic Con reportedly had to hand over their fake guns due to the United Kingdom's strict laws, which ban private ownership of both real handguns and realistic fakes. Anyone toting a BB gun or a black plastic pistol without a bright red or orange cap on the end had to turn it over at the door, although many owners got them back. Other types of weapons are banned as well, although replicas are allowed, and attendees could buy real swords and knives at the show and have them delivered to their homes. [NBC News]
This is Banned Books Week, the annual celebration of all the books that someone, somewhere, thought was objectionable — which usually means they make good reading. This year, the focus is on comics and graphic novels, and the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund is working with the other sponsors, including the American Library Association, to produce a number of resources for librarians and others, including a Banned Books Week Handbook; the organization has also posted a handy list of Banned Book Week events across the country (including this panel discussion, which I'll be part of).
It's safe to say few were sorry to see the Comics Code Authority quietly fade away in 2011, having become literally no more than a stamp on the covers of a handful of titles, but it was nonetheless an important part of history.
Sean Howe, author of Marvel Comics: The Untold Story, realized this three years ago and sent a letter to Heidi MacDonald, asking who had the files of the Comics Magazine Association of America, the trade association that administered the Code. While Howe thought the records had vanished, Mark Seifert was told they were donated to DC Comics.
This week, Howe reiterated his appeal on his blog:
Crime | Comix Experience in San Francisco was robbed at gunpoint Friday afternoon, with two young men demanding that owner Brian Hibbs empty the cash register containing about $75 and turn over an iPhone used for credit card transactions. A Lower Haight neighborhood blog interviewed Hibbs about the incident: "Divis [Divisadero Street] is generally pretty safe these days, so I was a LITTLE shocked at, y'know, a 'brazen daylight armed robbery' of it — but I am kind of more shocked that anyone thought that a comic book store was a high value target about an hour after they opened. Hell, life is like 85% credit cards these days, so even at our fattest there's seldom enough to risk that kind of jail time, in my opinion …" [Haighteration]
History | Scholar Carol Tilley gives a first-person account of her research on Fredric Wertham, the super-villain of comics history, and how looking through his papers led her to an unexpected conclusion: His published works misrepresented what his research subjects had told him: "For many hard-to-articulate reasons, I didn't want to write the scholarly paper on Wertham and the problems I found in his evidence, but not to write it seemed a disservice to the young people whose words and experiences Wertham distorted to help make his case against comics." [Boing Boing]

Take a look at the new products and features we've recently rolled out
Sold prices
In early December we launched a new feature that provides property sales history within the Trade Me Property iOS and Android apps. We rolled this out for listings in Auckland, Wellington City and Christchurch to begin with, however we will soon be extending this to provide richer property information throughout New Zealand.
Rateable Values
We've introduced rateable values for neighbouring properties within listings. These are displayed as an overlay on the Google map on listing pages and help buyers get better informed about the local property market. This was rolled on listings in Auckland, Wellington City and Christchurch, and we expect to extend this to 70% of the country early this year.
Open Home Planner
We've created the Open Home Planner for prospective property buyers to use during their house hunt. Properties in a members Watchlist that have an open home attached to the listing are automatically added to the planner. From there, the member will get directions, journey times, and also point out any potential clashes they might have between open homes.
'Pets OK' filter on rental listings
A 'Pets OK' filter has been added to our To Rent section. This allows property managers and landlords to indicate whether pets are allowed in the rental property or not. A great tool for prospective tentants to use during their rental pursuit.
InsideView transforms your vendor's property listing in to an interactive 3D viewing experience. This offers prospective buyers the opportunity to virtually walk around, feel and experience the property in a way they've never been able to before. Have a peak at how it looks live on a listing.
Want to hear more about this great feature? Get in touch with your account manager.
Not to be outdone with introducing just one source of rich media to complement your listings, we also launched the ability for YouTube Video to loaded and displayed on your listings.

I've just finished creating SHA1 hashes for each album in my MP3 collection using Corz Checksum. It left a .hash file in each folder, as desired. (Each folder is an album.)
However, the hash files it generated all have the name of the folder, for example
The Beatles - 1966 - Revolver.hash
I would like to automatically rename all of these .hash files to match the name of the .m3u playlist file which every folder also contains. For example the presence of
00 - Revolver.m3u
should cause the hash file to be renamed to
00 - Revolver.hash
Does anyone know of a way to do this with a command line? I'm hoping to find something similar to this: Command line recursive rename\move in windows?

Aussie Slides Versus Peers After RBA Says Currency Remains High
The Australian dollar weakened against most of its 16 major peers after the Reserve Bank said the exchange rate remains high following a decision to keep borrowing costs at a record low today.
The Aussie traded 0.4 percent from the lowest in almost a month after RBA Governor Glenn Stevens said that while the currency's decline to date has helped the economy, it "remains high by historical standards." It rose earlier after a report showed Australian building approvals increased more than analysts forecast, while continuing tension over Ukraine kept demand for higher-yielding assets limited.
"It's a small negative for the Aussie in that the RBA was willing to resume even the mildest jawboning," said Sean Callow, a currency strategist at Westpac Banking Corp. in Sydney. "It's just a very gentle reminder that longer term, they do expect the Aussie will be lower."
The Australian dollar lost 0.1 percent to 89.31 U.S. cents at 4:59 p.m. in Sydney after climbing as much as 0.4 percent. It touched 88.91 cents yesterday, the weakest since Feb. 5. New Zealand's currency was little changed at 83.73 U.S. cents.
Australia's benchmark 10-year yield rose two basis points to 4.01 percent. The yield on debt due in three years, among the most sensitive to interest-rate expectations, climbed five basis points to 2.83 percent after dropping to as low as 2.76 percent yesterday, the least since Sept. 30.
RBA Decision
The RBA's decision to keep the cash rate unchanged at 2.5 percent was predicted by all 32 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News. "The most prudent course is likely to be a period of stability in interest rates," Stevens said today in a statement after the meeting, echoing remarks made following the bank's February gathering.
Separate data today showed Australia's current-account deficit narrowed in the fourth quarter, while building approvals rebounded in January by more than economists predicted.
Foreigners bought A$12.4 billion ($11.1 billion) of Australian government debt in the fourth quarter, the statistics bureau said on its website. Overseas holdings rose to A$217.38 billion, the most on record.
Russia justified its intervention in the Crimea as a legitimate response to a request from Ukraine's ousted president, while western leaders sought to keep the standoff from spiraling into war. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is set to arrive in Ukraine's capital today.

Yummy Brussels Sprouts With Bacon & Onion
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 15 mins
I came up with this myself. Since brussels sprouts have a similar flavor to cabbage, I have adapted my cabbage recipe for them. My husband thought he did not like brussels sprouts until I made these. I usually have to do a double batch and we end up fighting over the leftovers!!!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen Brussels sprouts
- 4 slices of thick smoked bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1⁄4 cup margarine
- salt
- pepper
- Cook brussels sprouts according to package. I steam mine in the microwave.
- While sprouts are cooking, in a pot on the stove, cook your bacon and onion together. Cook until bacon and onion are thoroughly done.
- Add brussels sprouts to bacon & onion. Add margarine and salt & pepper to taste. When margarine is melted, you are done!
- I like to cook mine until the sprouts get a little brown on the bottom.
Most Helpful
Have made this recipe twice so far, making it again tonight. The second time I added some minced garlic which gave it an added bonus. Great recipe... thanks for sharing!
Love these. You can add the same bacon/onion combo to green beans, spinach, almost any vegetable. Add a little grated parmesan also to really punch up the flavor

Due to recent construction on the Truax Campus there will be slight changes in parking arrangements. Please review the most up to date parking map.
A valid student parking permit is required for all vehicles parked at the Truax or Commercial Avenue campuses. All vehicles must display a valid student permit at all times and park in designated areas only. Designated parking areas for students are in marked stalls only. Parking along curbs or on the grass is NOT allowed anywhere on Madison College campuses. The Madison College Truax campus offers additional parking in our "overflow" lots across Anderson Street, adjacent to the Lussier Athletic Park, and off of Straubel Street. Vehicles found in violation of the current college parking policy are subject to a parking citation and/or towing at the owner's expense without warning. You can obtain your student parking permit at the Public Safety Office room B1240, the fee for this permit is included in your student fees.
Madison College Public Safety asks that all new employees or current employees requesting a parking permit come to the Public Safety office, Room B1240, to pick up their permit. Be sure to bring a state or government photo ID. We no longer offer online requests for parking permits due to logistical issues regarding the delivery of permits. Madison College Employee Parking Permits are only issued to permanent Fulltime and Part-time employees and part time faculty. Student employees and casual employees will be issued parking permits for the student parking lots only. For the Foundation Centre, only employees assigned to that building as a permanent full time or permanent part-time employee will be issued Foundation Centre parking permits. Student employees and casual employees are required to park in the student parking lots.
Please call (608) 246-6031 with any questions.
Employee or Administrator parking permits are required to park in the employee parking lots at the Truax Campus. The "cling" style parking permits are no longer valid and must be replaced with a hang tag permit. This requirement has been in place since 2012. The proper permits can be obtained at the Madison College Public Safety office Room B1240. Vehicles without proper permits may be issued a parking citation and/or towed at the owner's expense.
Madison College employees are required to park ONLY in marked parking stalls. Parking along the marked "No Parking" areas are not allowed and may result in a citation and or towing at the owner's expense. Parking at the striped end of parking lanes is also not allowed on Madison College property and may also result in a citation and towing at owner's expense. Parking in the court areas behind the Truax building is ONLY for administrators, managers, and lab project vehicles with a permit. No other employees are authorized to park in the courts regardless of where they assigned work areas are. ESP/PSRP employees are expected to park ONLY in the authorized employee parking areas and not in the courts. Those authorized to park in the courts are also expected to park only in marked parking stalls. These type of rules are not exclusive to Madison College and similar rules are in place at most large private and or public institutions. The rules are in place for the safety of Madison College employees, students, and guests.
If you have received a parking citation from Madison College Public Safety Services and wish to have it reviewed please follow this link and download a citation review form. The form must be submitted to the Public Safety office within seven business says of the date that the citation was issued. You will receive a response in 3-5 business days. Ticket Dispute Form
At Truax, parking meters, for 1 hour, are provided off Anderson Street and Wright Street. Gated visitor parking is located in the large lot West of Wright Street. For parking concerns or questions, please call (608) 246-6031.
Students and staff on campus do not need to register to park in State Disabled stalls as long as they display their valid disabled identification card or license plate.
Motorcycles and mopeds do not require a parking permit. Motorcycle parking is limited to designated areas only. Mopeds are allowed to park free in bicycle racks.
Bicycle racks are provided at the Truax Campus, Commercial Avenue, West, and Downtown Education centers.
All bicycles must be parked in these racks. Bicycles found on lawns or chained to stairways, railings, etc., will be removed or detained. No bicycles are to be brought into college buildings.

News Evangelical Guidance Counselor=Pregnant Students=You're Not Doing Your Job.
posted by November 16 at 10:25 AMon
The Fundy Pharmacists' argument that they shouldn't have to do anything on the job that conflicts with their religious beliefs got put to the test in the 7th Circuit. The fundamentalists' argument lost.
In this case, a guidance counselor at a rural Wisconsin school complained that she was unjustly fired for following her religious beliefs on the job: She refused to give out literature about condoms and instead, gave out abstinence-only lit. Not surprisingly, several teens got pregnant. (She also prayed with students when they came to her with their problems. Probably the pregnant ones.)
The 7th Circuit ruled against the guidance counselor, as Decision of the Day nicely summarizes:
[She] was fired for her conduct, not for her religious beliefs. Although Grossmans religious beliefs clearly influenced her conduct, in the end, the school has a right to police the conduct of its employees.
Here's a great excerpt from the court's decision which isolates the leap of faith that fundamentalists expect others to take with them, and explains why others shouldn't be required to:
Were a jury to find that the school administrators wouldnt have refused to renew the plaintiffs contract had it not been for her religious beliefs, the judge would have to set aside the verdict as based on speculation rather than on a defensible view of the evidence. For at bottom the plaintiff has nothing to go on besides the words philosophy and philosophical in the notes of her conferences with her supervisors, as if the school administrators had engaged her in a theological debate. They had not. The reference to her preferring abstinence as a strategy for preventing teenage pregnancy to contraception (and likewise the references to her belief in abstinence and her not making a good fit with the school) related to her approach to the problem of teenage pregnancy rather than to her theological views. Those views were the cause of her approach, but so far as the record shows it was the approach that concerned the school administrators. So summary judgment was rightly granted for the defendants.
An argument I would add: If the guidance counselor wants the administration to believe that her conduct and philosophy aren't separate issues, she's acknowledging right off the bat that she was knowingly pushing her religious views onto students at a public school. Not allowed.

Absorption of methyldopa from the gastrointestinal tract is incomplete and variable; bio-availability after oral administration is about 25% (range 8 to 62%). The average lime to reach maximum plasma concentration (tmax) [chemically determined] is 2 hours, when the maximum plasma concentration of active drug accounts for 50% of the radioactivity, the remainder representing various metabolites.
Physicochemical determination of methyldopa shows that bi-phasic elimination occurs after both intravenous and oral administration, the half-life of the α-phase being 0.21 hours (range 0.16 to 0.26 hours) and of the β-phase 1.28 hours (range 1.02 to 1.69 hours) in normal subjects. Methyldopa is less than 15% protein bound, whereas the primary metabolite, which most probably is the O-sulphate, is about 50% protein bound.
The apparent volume of distribution in the central compartment is about 0.23L/kg (range 0.19 to 0.32L/kg), and the total volume of distribution (calculated as Vdarea) is about 0.60L/kg (range 0.41 to 0.72L/kg) in healthy volunteers.
Acid-labile conjugates are formed after oral administration. These acid-labile conjugates, in particular the O-sulphate, are probably formed in the intestinal cells, since they are detected in very small amounts after intravenous administration. Additionally, there is a rapid formation of partly unidentified metabolites after both intravenous and oral administration. After intravenous administration the quantitatively most prominent metabolites are methyldopamine and the glucuronide of dihydroxyphenylacetone, but traces of 5 or 6 other metabolites have also been found and identified. These metabolites are probably formed in the liver, but the complete metabolic pattern is still unknown.
The renal clearance of methyldopa (95ml/min/m2) is more than 50% higher than the endogenous creatinine clearance. Renal excretion of some metabolites is slower.
Extrarenal elimination accounts for about 50% of the total body clearance of the drug. Renal excretion is very low in patients with renal failure, resulting in accumulation of both active drug and, in particular, its metabolites. There is a marked accumulation of unidentified metabolites in renal failure patients, which possibly explains the strong and prolonged hypotensive action of methyldopa in these patients.

I have previously requested Anti-Hacking Checksums.
Now - just to keep everybody busy - I would like to ask for automated database integrity checks. The following background has been added to my blog post on the subject:
The database has a table, wp_postmeta, which tracks attachments. One record in this table has the values: meta_id=8474, post_id=2181, meta_key = '_wp_attached_file', meta_value='/services1/webpages/p/r/prefblog.com
There is also: meta_id=8472, post_id=2180, meta_key = '__wp_attached_file', meta_value = '/services1/webpages/p/r/prefblog.com
These records have been removed.
I have also deleted some entries in the wp_posts table. As far as I can make out from the WordPress codex the value of 'post_parent' should reference a 'post_id' in the same table, which are all positive integers.
After noting some odd entries, I queried the database: 'select * from wp_posts where post_parent < 0' and came up with seven records. Two have post_parent set to numbers that are large and negative; the 'guid' field indicates that this is stuff that I did, in fact, upload but somehow screwed up.
The remaining 5 records all have post_parent set to -1, with 'guid' having a variety of values: the first one, with 'post_modifed' = '2008-03-25 05:26:58' has 'guid' = 'http://www.prefblog.com
//../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../tmp/3rbsmag.txt'. The other entries are similar, with filenames 10bum.txt (three times) and 2newbum.txt.
All these records have been deleted. Note that with these long field values, I have added a HTML line-break to make the full field look nice on this post.
I note that the first of these highly suspicious entries occurred within a week of my WP 2.3.3 installation!
It seems to me to be clear that a negative value for post_parent is simply wrong. A suite of functions whereby I could automatically validate the database for such things would be very useful.
