The best smartphone in the world right now
Samsung has refined the dual edge S7 into the best phone money can buy
The new smartphone champion
Samsung has listened to customers and made an (almost) perfect smartphone
'The Nexus 6P is one of the best Android phones you can buy right now, given its top-of-the-line specs for a more affordable price. '
'If you're just looking for an excellent Android phone, this could be the phone for you too... along with any number of strong alternatives. '
'The Nexus 6P is the closest thing there's ever been to a perfect Android device. '
'Highly adaptable camera'
'This year's iPhone 6s Plus is a terrific phone in virtually every respect. '
'From its sturdy and new 7000 Series aluminum, all the way to its incredibly svelte construction, it's indicative of a meticulously made smartphone. '
'Much faster speeds on Sprint than previous iPhones. '
'The 6S Plus is a great looking phone and it feels great in the hand.'
'The Nexus 5X is a great smartphone that showcases the best of what Android Marshmallow has to offer. '
'Outside the storage issues, the rest of the 5X is pretty good under the hood. '
'A thoroughly modern Nexus device for a sensible price. '
'Versatile camera that's very adaptable to the conditions.'
The flagship and the folly
The verdict on this crazy two-camera phone isn't quite black and white.
The Huawei P9's Leica dual-lens camera is its crowning achievement, but the P9 isn't without its flaws
Huawei takes aim at the top spot
'But does all that on-board tech translate to a great smartphone camera' Of course it does. '
'Samsung's Galaxy Note series has never been for everyone, but the Note 5 just might change some minds.'
'With its slick, Galaxy S6-like body and brand-new S Pen, the Galaxy Note 5 is Samsung's best Note yet.'
'And it succeeded: the Note 5 is probably the most consumer-friendly Note ever. '
'It's a gorgeous phone with some of the finest hardware available right now, but its key feature is relatively useless, and still somewhat experimental. . '
'For my money, it's the best Android phone on the market right now: the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+. '
'It's without a doubt a very capable and beautiful smartphone, perhaps one of the prettiest smartphones ever produced. '
'Edge functionality is limited.'
'The end result is a smartphone that looks practical, like a sports shoe or a torch.'
'The Moto X Play is another solid, good looking phone from the Motorola's stables. '
'Add a splash-proof body that protects the internals from all kinds of spilled drinks, and the option to wildly customise the colours of the phone to suit your exacting tastes and you've got yourself one hell of a smartphone.'
'The Moto X Play is the balancing act between the Moto G and Moto X Style with a tendency to aim high instead of settle for less.'
'Huawei's Mate 8 is a fantastic phone. '
'The Huawei Mate 8 is one seriously good-looking smartphone. '
'Disorganized user interface.'
'It's bright at 500cd/m2 and has great colours, contrast and viewing angles.'
Extraordinary value Android phone rivals Galaxy S7 and LG G5
As Chinese consumers become more discerning, Xiaomi rises to meet increasing expectations
A great device with a not-so-great software experience

Tron Reboot (parody)
this wiki
|This article is written from a
Real World perspective.
Tron Reboot is a series of short video parodies created by Ben Hansford, Daniel Thron and Michael Faradie.
Tron Reboot was born out of a love for TRON and features many "assists" from the Tron Wiki. Elements such as the breakout scene in the background of Episode 01 was based on the light cycle clip in the Tron wikia. Likewise all of the color correction regarding suit colors, skin-tones, glow-lines, etc, was based on stills and videos contained within this wiki.
The goal of Tron Reboot is to present small humorous parody clips, while still providing maximum homage to the original Tron feature film. The effects (both 2d and 3d) are done to the best of our abilities, given the constraints of time and budget. (80 dollars for 8 shorts.)
Plans are to release 2 more on August 4th. The filmmakers are always up for new ideas and suggestions, and can be reached through their YouTube accounts.
Cast and Crew
- Ben Hansford -- Director / VFX
- Daniel Thron -- Cast: Dongle (Laser Butt) / production designer / visual futurist
- Michael Faradie -- Cast: Rom (Laser Bo-hunk)
- Karl Denham -- Director of Photography
- Miso Sound -- Sound design
- Aaron Priest -- Producer
- Johnny Renzulli -- Greenscreen master
- Josh McHugh -- 3d artist -- Tuesday night mafia -- heart and soul

Vol State Offers Gun Self-Defense and Shooting Simulator Class
Submitted on May 31, 2012 at 9:41 AM
The Trayvon Martin shooting case in Florida has prompted many gun owners to consider Tennessee self-defense laws and the use of force. Volunteer State Community College Continuing Education is offering a one-day course that could help. The class will cover laws, criminal and civil liability and the use of force. Students will be able to practice what they have learned with a Lasershot Firearms Training Simulator. The trainer combines a Glock 17 Lasershot with an interactive video screen for realistic self-defense scenarios. It can help gun owners better understand the use of force and how to deal with threats to themselves and their family.
The course is taught by Kevin Cook, the Director of the Vol State Criminal Justice Program. He is a former federal law enforcement officer and investigator and a graduate of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center.
"The laws are different state to state," Cook said. "The gun permit class that everyone takes doesn't expand on the codes for use of force. This class breaks them down in a way to help students better understand what they mean. We then use the simulator for scenarios that dramatize what they just learned."
The course will he held several times this summer on the college campus at 1480 Nashville Pike in Gallatin. The June 30 class will be held from 9 a.m. to noon and costs $49. For more information contact Vol State Continuing Education at 615-230-3358

Natural Haircare Products Bring out the MoxieWritten by Linda Kelly
Original Moxie creates hair care products "for the rest of us" – real people, not models or glossy fashion magazines. Moxie creator Rachel Blistein is "one of us" - just a regular person with 'challenging' hair and a knack for creating truly awesome hair products. Rachel personally crafts each product, from customizing herbal infusions to sourcing pure, natural ingredients and fine-tuning Moxie's iconic essential oil fragrances. She's also a life-long nature lover, so the Moxie products are made from organic, unrefined ingredients that are as chemical-free and environmentally friendly as possible. Original Moxie is committed to using natural ingredients not just because they work, but because they create less of an environmental impact than their chemical counterparts. Natural ingredients also tend to be fully biodegradable and easily composted. "The dried herbs that go into the Original Moxie herbal infusions are lovingly collected and turned into our compost heap, which will, in turn, yield rich, black soil for our gardens," Blistein said. "Moxie" means bucking convention and doing things your own way -- with spunk, spirit and style -- and that's exactly what the folks at Original Moxie have done. Original Moxie helps customers diagnose their hair care needs based on a combination of three characteristics: Density, Dryness, & Degree of Curl. Original Moxie's exclusive 3-D Diagnostic System™ eliminates the guesswork by helping identify the products that fit the "real you." As part of its commitment to environmentally safe hair care products and environmentally sound business practices, Original Moxie "reduces, reuses, and recycles." They minimize the use of disposable products and tools, reuse shipping boxes when possible, exclusively package hair products in recyclable bottles, and have partnered with Carbonfund.org to offset emissions from other business operations that can't be eliminated. Get your Moxie going and visit www.originalmoxie.com to learn more.

The Bandito is sand-driving buggy in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto V.
The Bandito is designed as a single occupant sand rail with a relatively simple construction. The Bandito's body and chassis consists of formed and welded metal tubing. Its driver compartment, engine and other mechanical components are exposed; lights and windscreen are also added. Being stripped down to the bare essentials, the Bandito also lacks a radio.
The performance of the Bandito is comparably better than that of a BF Injection, a similar dune buggy, as the Bandito is not susceptible to spinouts due to a more balanced chassis and longer length. Its soft suspensions and off-road tires allow the vehicle to traverse rough terrain and sand with no problem, and its speed is considerably above average. On the bad side, the Bandito can't hold that much damage and will catch on fire in about 3 full-speed smashes to a wall. The vehicle is also bottom-heavy and wider at the bottom, reducing the risk of the vehicle resting on its top. Oddly enough, it sounds just like an FCR-900.
- During the San Fierro Street Race "Bandito Country", the Bandito driven by Carl actually has a radio equipped; even though it isn't present visually. This may be the only Bandito in the game to ever have a radio equipped (leaving mods aside).
- The Bandito looks like the cars from the Smuggler's Run series developed by Angel Studios (now known as Rockstar San Diego).
- It is one of the few one-seater cars in GTA San Andreas, the others being the Sweeper, Forklift, Baggage Handler, Kart, Dozer, Mower, and Combine Harvester.
- "Bandito" is Italian for "Gangster," or "Outlaw."
- This is the only of the girlfriends' vehicles in which the progress doesn't need to be at 50% to become unlocked, owing to the fact it has no doors.
- If the player activates the health cheat while driving a Bandito the belt wheel on the engine will become perpendicular with its normal rotation position.
- There are no steering arms attached to the front wheels of the buggy, which in theory means that it is impossible for the Bandito to steer. (This logic is however ignored in-game)
- The Bandito will return in GTA V. It bears a strong resemblance to the military DPV.
- Spawns in front of Helena Wankstein's home in Flint Range, Flint County if you date her.
- Found at a beach west of the San Fierro City Hall in San Fierro.
- May be used in the mission "Interdiction" for Mike Toreno
- Used in the chase to kill Eddie Pulaski during "High Noon".
- Used in one of the San Fierro Street Races, namely "Bandito Country".
- Importable from the Exports and Imports dock at Easter Basin, San Fierro every Tuesday after completing export lists. Cost: $12,000

Penrose-St. Francis Health Services says due to the demand for influenza vaccinations, it has partnered with Walgreens to provide two additional clinics to offer free influenza vaccinations for members of our community. The vaccinations are for adults and children over the age of four-years-old, and the number of vaccines is limited to the supply available.
Wednesday, Jan 23, 11 a.m. -1 p.m.
Catholic Charities Marion House, 14 W. Bijou
Monday, Jan 28, 4 – 6 p.m.
Mercy's Gate - 4285 N. Academy Blvd (Rocky Mountain Calvary Chapel)
Eligibility requirements include: uninsured/underinsured, those without vaccine coverage.
Flu Facts from the Centers for Disease Control:

• About two weeks after vaccination, antibodies that provide protection against the influenza viruses in the vaccine develop in the body.
• Certain people have a higher risk of developing flu-related complications, like pneumonia, if they contract the flu virus. Some of those people include: children younger than five-years-old, adults 65 years of age and older, pregnant women, and people who have certain medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes, and chronic lung disease.
• Flu Symptoms include: fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, headaches, body aches, chills, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.

16 U.S. Code § 5010 - Penalties
§ 5010.
(a) Civil penalties
Any person who is found by the Secretary of Commerce, after notice and opportunity for a hearing in accordance with section 554 of title 5, to have committed an act prohibited by section 5009 of this title shall be liable to the United States for a civil penalty. The amount of the civil penalty shall not exceed $100,000 for each violation. Each day of a continuing violation shall constitute a separate offense. The amount of such civil penalty shall be assessed by the Secretary of Commerce, or the Secretary's designee, by written notice. In determining the amount of such penalty, the Secretary of Commerce shall take into account the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity of the prohibited acts committed and, with respect to the violation, the degree of culpability, any history of prior offenses, ability to pay, and such other matters as justice may require.
Any person against whom a civil penalty is assessed under paragraph (1) may obtain review thereof in the appropriate court of the United States by filing a complaint in such court within 30 days from the date of such order and by simultaneously serving a copy of such complaint by certified mail on the Secretary of Commerce, the Attorney General, and the appropriate United States Attorney. The Secretary of Commerce shall promptly file in such court a certified copy of the record upon which such violation was found or such penalty imposed, as provided in section 2112 of title 28. The findings and order of the Secretary of Commerce shall be set aside by such court if they are not found to be supported by substantial evidence, as provided in section 706(2) of title 5.
If any person fails to pay an assessment of a civil penalty after it has become a final and unappealable order, or after the appropriate court has entered final judgment in favor of the Secretary of Commerce, the matter shall be referred to the Attorney General, who shall recover the amount assessed in any appropriate district court of the United States. In such action, the validity and appropriateness of the final order imposing the civil penalty shall not be subject to review.
A fishing vessel (including its fishing gear, furniture, appurtenances, stores, and cargo) used in the commission of an act prohibited by section 5009 of this title shall be liable in rem for any civil penalty assessed for such violation under paragraph (1) and may be proceeded against in any district court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof. Such penalty shall constitute a maritime lien on such vessel that may be recovered in an action in rem in the district court of the United States having jurisdiction over the vessel.
The Secretary of Commerce may compromise, modify, or remit, with or without conditions, any civil penalty that is subject to imposition or that has been imposed under this section.
For the purposes of conducting any hearing under this section, the Secretary of Commerce may issue subpoenas for the attendance and testimony of witnesses and the production of relevant papers, books, and documents, and may administer oaths. Witnesses summoned shall be paid the same fees and mileage that are paid to witnesses in the courts of the United States. In case of contempt or refusal to obey a subpoena served upon any person pursuant to this paragraph, the district court of the United States for any district in which such person is found, resides, or transacts business, upon application by the United States and after notice to such person, shall have jurisdiction to issue an order requiring such person to appear and give testimony before the Secretary of Commerce or to appear and produce documents before the Secretary of Commerce, or both, and any failure to obey such order of the court may be punished by such court as a contempt thereof.
(b) Offenses
A person is guilty of an offense if the person commits any act prohibited by section 5009(5), (6), (7), or (8) of this title.
Any offense described in paragraph (1) is a class A misdemeanor punishable by a fine under title 18 or imprisonment for not more than 6 months, or both; except that if in the commission of any offense the person uses a dangerous weapon, engages in conduct that causes bodily injury to any enforcement officer, or places any such officer in fear of imminent bodily injury, the offense is a felony punishable by a fine under title 18 or imprisonment for not more than 10 years, or both.
(c) Forfeiture
Any fishing vessel (including its fishing gear, furniture, appurtenances, stores, and cargo) used, and any fish (or a fair market value thereof) taken or retained, in any manner, in connection with or as a result of the commission of any act prohibited by section 5009 of this title shall be subject to forfeiture to the United States. All or part of such vessel may, and all such fish shall, be forfeited to the United States pursuant to a civil proceeding under this section.
Any district court of the United States shall have jurisdiction, upon application of the Attorney General on behalf of the United States, to order any forfeiture authorized under paragraph (1) and any action provided for under paragraph (4).
(3) If a judgment is entered for the United States in a civil forfeiture proceeding under this section, the Attorney General may seize any property or other interest declared forfeited to the United States, which has not previously been seized pursuant to this chapter or for which security has not previously been obtained. The provisions of the customs laws relating to—
shall apply to seizures and forfeitures incurred, or alleged to have been incurred, under the provisions of this chapter, unless such provisions are inconsistent with the purposes, policy, and provisions of this chapter.
(A) Any officer authorized to serve any process in rem that is issued by a court having jurisdiction under section 5008(b) of this title shall—
upon receipt of a satisfactory bond or other security from any person claiming such property. Such bond or other security shall be conditioned upon such person delivering such property to the appropriate court upon order thereof, without any impairment of its value, or paying the monetary value of such property pursuant to an order of such court. Judgment shall be recoverable on such bond or other security against both the principal and any sureties in the event that any condition thereof is breached, as determined by such court.
For purposes of this section, it shall be a rebuttable presumption that all fish found on board a fishing vessel and which is seized in connection with an act prohibited by section 5009 of this title were taken or retained in violation of the Convention and this chapter.
(Pub. L. 102–567, title VIII, § 811, Oct. 29, 1992, 106 Stat. 4314; Pub. L. 102–587, title VIII, § 8011, Nov. 4, 1992, 106 Stat. 5103; Pub. L. 106–562, title III, § 304(a), Dec. 23, 2000, 114 Stat. 2806.)

"State legislators want to create two different healthcare policies for kids with autism: one that generously covers the privately insured, and the other that gives minimal coverage to the poor and publicly insured, but both using state funds," says Idil Abdull of Burnsville and mother of a 10-year-old son with autism. At age 11, when Abdull came to the United States from her native country of Somalia, she knew very little English and very little about American politics. "The only thing I knew about America was Superman and Rocky [the movie], she says."
Some 20 years plus since arriving on North American shores, Abdull is now very fluent in both English and the parlance of American politics. "If nothing else, I know how to be loud," she says. Like many other families, Abdull says she went through a period of denial about autism. Continue Reading →

The practices at New Frontier Bank in Greeley not only flew in the face of banking standards, they rose to the level of potential fraud, a Denver Post investigation has found.
The maneuvers, including the masking of loan losses and insider dealing, were missed or went unpunished by state and federal regulators for years leading up to the $1 billion bank failure — the costliest in Colorado history.
Reviews of bank documents, audits and oversight reports, along with interviews of former New Frontier board members, consultants, bank examiners and former regulators, expose factors contributing to the bank's collapse.
Among the new findings:
• With government inspections looming, the bank's loan officers rewrote terms of delinquent loans, disguising steady asset deterioration, according to a former board member and records.
• New Frontier Bank executives staved off an effort by the bank's federal regulator, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., to ban one of its high-performing loan officers accused of fraud at a previous bank. Later, that officer was convicted of theft for stealing deposits at New Frontier.
• The bank's board authorized a $400,000 payment to one of its members whose used-car business was in financial trouble, sources said, despite a state law barring preferential treatment for bank insiders.
• After regulators told New Frontier in 2008 it needed to raise cash, bankers issued loans to at least a dozen borrowers who in turn agreed to buy stock in the bank. Such transactions can be illegal if coercion is proved.
Bank regulators shut down New Frontier in April because it was bleeding cash. The bank failure caused havoc in the agriculture and real-estate communities of northern Colorado. The $1 billion cleanup bill ultimately will be passed on to consumers in the form of bank fees.
"It's the classic case of see-no-evil regulation," said David Nilges, who rehabilitated loans for the Resolution Trust Corp. created to clean up the savings-and-loan crisis.
State securities commissioner Fred Joseph, who for the past year has served double duty as acting banking commissioner, ordered the bank's shutdown.
"The system could be retooled," Joseph said earlier this year. "The cycle of examinations could be revisited. We need a lot more people at the federal and state level."
A federal probe into potential fraud at New Frontier is underway by the Justice Department.
State and federal banking officials declined to be interviewed for this story, saying laws prohibit them from commenting on banks' oversight.
Former New Frontier president Larry Seastrom and most other members of the board of directors at the time of the bank's closure declined to be interviewed or did not return phone calls.
Former board member Jack Renfroe, a director since 2002, called the bank's practices proper and fully understood by regulators. He said he could not recall any preferential treatment for a board member and he did not believe the bank covered up bad loans.
"Every regulation, every suggestion examiners ever made to us was answered fully within a matter of days and returned with a complete answer," Renfroe said. "Anything can be hidden. But I wasn't aware of it."
Twelve-hour days
Two years into New Frontier's existence, fast and furious dealmaking was embedded in the bank's culture, say former employees and consultants.
Seastrom, who founded the bank in 1998, expected his top loan producers to work 12-hour days. He strolled the floors at 7 a.m. and then again at 7 p.m. to ensure they were working.
"It was a high-pressure culture," said Jim Davies, a former asset manager for New Frontier. "Larry kept firing people who didn't subscribe to his philosophy."
By 2000, warning signs of the do-the-deal culture were emerging in the quarterly financial reports. They revealed the bank had tripled its loan portfolio to $113.4 million in a single year. Such rapid generation of loans, continuing even as the bank grew larger, boosts the chances that more loans will be poorly underwritten, experts said.
Among New Frontier's top-producing loan officers at the time was Fred Allison. While he was working at New Frontier, his previous bosses at Farmers Bank in Eaton discovered problems with his loans there and sought an investigation by the FDIC.
Allison had whited out appraised values on property and substituted his own figures on loan documents, said Bill Farr, former president of Farmers Bank.
But Seastrom, a former senior vice president at Farmers who had worked with Allison, embraced his knack for getting deals done. He decided to intervene with the FDIC when the complaint came to light.
In March 2001, Seastrom and fellow board member Bob Brunner, a Greeley feed distributor, persuaded the FDIC to allow Allison to stay on at New Frontier as long as they monitored him closely, according to former bank employees and Allison's sworn testimony.
FDIC officials would not comment, saying rulings made in informal hearings are secret.
Two years later, several New Frontier bank customers noticed money disappearing from their accounts. In spring 2003, their complaints led to the firing of Allison, who later admitted stealing up to $75,000. The bank settled out of court with at least four customers and Allison was convicted of theft, banned from banking in 2005 and is still serving a five-year prison sentence.
Chuck Miles, one of Allison's victims, was forced to file bankruptcy. He has yet to get his money back, despite a default judgment against Allison for $12.5 million. Miles said he feels little justice.
In 2005, he sent a letter to the two regulators overseeing New Frontier — Bill Mickles at the state banking division and John Land at the FDIC — requesting an investigation into the bank.
Both told Miles there was nothing they could do, he said.
"A police officer told me: 'You know, you've been robbed by a bank,' " Miles said.
Former New Frontier board member Carroll Miller, who was brought onto the board in 2000 by Seastrom, saw evidence of bad loans swelling in the bank's internal reports.
Looming inspections by regulators, he said, were signals to clean up the files.
Loan officers would dig out stacks of delinquent loans and rewrite them, altering interest and payment terms to bring them current, said Miller, noting the practices were routine while he was on the board between 2000 and 2004.
"I wouldn't be surprised if it happened when the regulators were in the building," Miller said.
Conflicting with banking rules
Some loan terms were marked as accruing income, because collateral was listed for sale, conflicting with federal banking rules, regulators say.
Records show in 2006 and 2007 both the FDIC and state officials flagged the practice, but no formal enforcement order was issued.
Regulators have two options to correct such deficiencies: an informal order striking an agreement with a bank to make changes, or a stricter formal order that can result in removal of executives and a bank closure.
Others say a fraud investigation is justified.
"Once the examiner becomes aware of this kind of deceptive practice, he or she should no longer trust the material supplied by the bank," said a former state examiner who requested anonymity because of state banking nondisclosure laws.
Through 2003 and 2004, New Frontier's momentum seemed unstoppable, even though Colorado's economy was one of the worst-performing of any state in that period. Its assets eclipsed $500 million, a faster growth rate than 91 percent of more than 1,000 commercial banks nationwide.
To support that loan portfolio, it was gorging on high-yield brokered certificates of deposit, known as "hot money," because investors can withdraw money and chase better CD returns elsewhere. Eventually, it came to rely on those shaky deposits at 10 times the national average.
"Any time you have both of these trends off the charts, this is an indication the loans could be trash,"said Nilges, the former loan rehabilitator.
Despite such trends, there was no regulatory sanction, although state and federal banking policies regarding asset growth and quality allow it.
Inside New Frontier, other hazardous practices were playing out.
Miller described insider dealing involving board member Dean Juhl. In one meeting, Seastrom offered to make a $400,000 payment to aid Juhl, whose used-car business, Deals on Wheels, was hemorrhaging money.
At Seastrom's urging, the board quickly authorized the move, Miller said. Essentially, the money was a reimbursement for payments Juhl had made to the bank to cover losses on car deals that New Frontier financed over the years.
"It was dirty," said Miller, who refused to vote. "I sat there thinking the regulators would pick it up."
Another board member, who asked not to be identified, citing current government investigations into the bank's activities, confirmed the payment was authorized by the board. Juhl did not return phone calls from The Post.
Separately, Juhl was convicted of felony theft in February 2008 for a mortgage scheme in which he and a partner induced cash-strapped homebuyers to purchase homes, then kept the mortgage money, leaving clients facing foreclosure. He served a month-long jail sentence.
Miller was voted off the New Frontier board in 2004 because other board members pegged him as a serious doubter of the bank's approach to business, according to former board members.
Miller, who runs a Greeley real-estate business, said he regrets not contacting regulators.
"You become a traitor," said Miller, a shareholder in the bank until it was closed. "I would have been castigated badly in the community."
Informal enforcement order
Regulators issued an informal enforcement order to New Frontier in February 2008. The memorandum of understanding required executives to tighten credit management for loans, reduce brokered deposits, and raise more capital.
Later that year, Patrick Vellone, a bank liability attorney with the Allen and Vellone law firm in Denver, took a phone call from a bankruptcy attorney representing one of New Frontier's biggest borrowers.
Vellone couldn't believe what he was hearing.
The attorney told Vellone that New Frontier's officers offered borrowers loans on the condition that they purchase stock in the bank's holding company — essentially providing the bank a capital infusion it needed to keep regulators at bay.
"I said, 'Wow, that's illegal. I haven't even heard of that since Silverado,' " Vellone recalled, referring to the failed Denver-based Silverado Savings & Loan, an icon of the 1980s thrift crisis.
As it turns out, at least a dozen New Frontier borrowers were buying stock at the same time they were taking loans from the bank, according to Vellone and representatives of two investment groups that reviewed the bank's books and loan files.
Joel Vanlith, a cattleman from Caldwell, Idaho, who is a client of Vellone's, said he viewed the arrangement as a "scratch our back and we will scratch yours."
Over the years, Vanlith participated in different New Frontier stock offerings. But he noticed a stark shift in tone in 2008 after the FDIC demanded the bank raise more capital to cope with rising loan defaults.
Vanlith needed to boost his credit line at the bank, and didn't want to put that increase at risk.
He invested $200,000 in the bank, adding to the $1 million personal loss he would suffer when the bank failed.
"You are trying to run a business, and do you take a chance of not getting what you were verbally committed to?" Vanlith asked. "What happens if I don't buy the stock?"
Vellone has filed one lawsuit on behalf of Johnson Dairy, one of the state's largest dairies, alleging that New Frontier tied stock purchases to lending to maintain the facade with regulators that it had enough capital. He may file several others.
Earlier this year, New Frontier officials denied the allegations in the Johnson Dairy lawsuit on grounds that the investments were voluntary rather than coerced, the standard used by the Federal Reserve.
The bank's alleged stock-for-loan deals and the other practices at New Frontier expose gaps and weaknesses in the state and federal bank oversight systems, experts say.
For example, the FDIC and state inspectors review loan management, while the Federal Reserve focuses on bank holding companies and stocks.
No agency consistently looks for illegal ties between loans and stock transactions by cross-checking names of borrowers with stockholders, experts say.
Other problems are more basic.
The state banking division has no criminal fraud inspectors to probe suspicious activity, unlike other state agencies overseeing other financial industries.
In 2003, the same time frame Miller said New Frontier loan officers were touching up bad loans, a state audit of the banking division found that its examiners were not following through with inquiries into fraud risks at five banks, which were not identified.
Three of the banks were deemed vulnerable to fraud.
"Speculation that loans may have been extended or renewed to hide loan delinquencies and improve the balance sheet were noted in (inspectors') work papers for one bank," auditors wrote in a report.
A shortage of inspectors at both state and federal levels to track burgeoning bank assets also led to overburdened and undertrained staff, the audit showed.
Experts also raise questions about the wisdom of no surprise inspections and the fact that the state routinely destroys inspectors' notes and working papers upon completion of bank examinations.
If federal investigators want to probe the board payment to Juhl or the disguised loan transactions, they could be hampered by the loss of those documents.
Other states have used inspectors' working papers in fraud investigations.
Wyoming bank commissioner Jeff Vogel preserves his examiners' notes in a vault. Four years ago, a bank executive was convicted of embezzling money through a loan.
"We did look at some of those exam notes for that case," Vogel said. "They were still on site. Had they been destroyed it could have impacted the case."

Hi all,
I have a ton of old AD/D stuff and have purchased a lot of Pathfinder by paizo stuff just for fun. I tried getting my daughters to play butit never worked out. I guess i should be happy they do kendo. At any rate. There are many really cool spells and skills in those games that could be applicable to alteil. I will try to list some of them in the coming days and p erhaps we could discuss how they might be implemented in some context.
Many of these skills are based upon unit level. I think this is actually kind of a cool concept since we have rank ups and abilities to raise unit level. So the skills could be action skills based. Off the unit'slevel. So if the unit was a lv 2 sorceror and had an auto skill that raised lv by 1 each turn - like violet or so. Then it had a conditional abilities based off of it'slevel a lot like violet. Could be really fun. What do you think?
I'll post some of the ones i think could work in the coming days.

World of Warcraft is a MMORPG (Massively Moronic Online Repetitive Playing Game) which is a parody on the game World of Whorecraft, made by SnowFlake Entertainment. The latest version is an MMORPGOMFGROTFLMFAONOOBWTFBBQ, the current genre of choice. It is based in the fictitious world of Azeroth: a warring land where the denizens mercilessly annihilate any kittens, rabbits, kobolds, wolves, orcs, crazed half-demon/half-elves, and any other small moving object that crosses their path on an endless quest to level up.
This is terrorism at its finest! The challenge of the game lies chiefly in the sheer volume of animals needing to be be interacted with. It is estimated that players need to interact with roughly one completely packed cubic mile of animals before reaching the fabled level 80; at which point you will have lost your life, your job, your friends and have become a soulless fiend eating nothing besides donuts, ramen noodles, and the occasional Slim Fast. Should you perchance need to rest your index finger for a while, you could always chat with other losers with no life, or sell plastic daggers to newbies for like 50 gold.
Server types
There are 4 server types, available to all the rich people who pay for WoW:
Normal: Also known as 'PvE', these servers are designed for cowards. You cannot attack enemy players, and they cannot attack you, unless you choose it. Best for all those who cannot understand or don't want to understand that they are weak.
PvP: These servers are designed for bloodthirsty idiots. You can attack anyone, anywhere, at any time of day. You only get points for killing players that are around the same level as you, but you can still go on a screaming rampage of death and destroy the World of Warcraft as we know it by killing all the lowbies. Apparently. 13375P34K is a neccesity in these servers to survive the wrath of all the uber peeveepeers.
RP: The worst of the four choices for all those who neither have nor need a social life. RP servers have rules to make sure that you are, in fact, living as your character. Homosexuality is often a trait needed by the player to survive.
RP-PvP: Let's calculate: if RP means antisocial idiot, and PvP means bloodthirsty idiot then RP-PvP means antisocial, bloodthirsty idiot squared. Got it?
Private Servers: Played on by cheapskates who are too lazy, broke, or ashamed of their spouse finding the bill for WoW on the credit card statement; these illegally free servers are essentially for self confessed n00bs who can't level their characters without cheats.
Although WoW may seem to be a mild and innocent game, there are conspiracy theories popping up all over the place about it. Recently, professional Conspiracy team, Mael Rozet and Kiev Simonfy, have found incriminating proof that WoW is not so innocent. When interviewed, they told us the truth of WoW: apparently the word "WoW" is actually a secret code that when flipped backwards and copied into Microsoft Word with font changed to wingdings, shows a German flag with arrows pointing up to show that Germany, the homeland of the creator of WoW is planning to take over the world. Rozet and Simonfly have won multiple conspiracy awards for proving that trees are mirages.
"The evidence is absolutely convincing!".
World of Warcraft is one of the most addicting drugs known to man, monkey, dolphin, and Dwarves. Unlike other drugs, WoW is not injected or snorted (although it can be if you're an experienced level 70), but played, mostly among nerds and geeks. Your momma warned you, but you wouldn't listen.
If any of the following symptoms should materialise, you need to alt + f4 immediately:
- Bleeding Eyes: Often caused by watching all the other players fly by you while you're still killing level 1 scorpions in some stupid desert. This can be treated by running into the bathroom and giving yourself a vicious swirly.
- Bleeding Fingertips: Mainly caused by repeatedly spamming the same button repeatedly, if this is a common affliction for you, it is recommended you do not play as a Mage or a Rogue for fear of aggravating your condition.
- Sexual Contractions: This DoT (damage over time) debuff is caused by being attracted to female Night Elves, and can quickly be cured by your average, 'run of the mill', pornography.
- Death: Sometimes observed because you played WoW for 2.5 months straight, often caused by disconnecting during BWL or MC. There is no prescribed treatment for this... I suppose your best bet is to hang around and wait for some nice priest to resurrect you...
Combat in World of Warcraft presents a scene similar to releasing a baboon with a crayon in a coloring book factory: there's no real way of knowing where the baboon will color, and where he'll leave a steamy pile of "hello". SnowFlake designed the combat system to be fairly autonomous, but there is no real way of knowing how much damage you will deal to the intended target or even if you'll hit the target at all.
Critical Strikes involve Line Dancing. You have a set percentage to do double damage every time you attack in any way. Magic has it's own Critical Strike (CS) percentage, as does simple cooking. The ability to do double damage has an equal chance of happening as someone wanting to kill themselves so they go to the edge of a cliff, tie a rope around their neck from a tree close by, drink poison, light themselves on fire, load a gun, jump off, shoot the gun at their head, miss, cut the rope, fall off the cliff and happen to fall into the one spot with water at the bottom, which puts out the flame and then vomit up the poison and live. It just doesn't happen.
Status Effects Stun, Fear, Sleep, Charm and Resurrection Sickness are all forms of Status Effects. In some (Stun and Sleep) you can not move. In others (Fear and Charm) you are limited in control of your character. Resurrection Sickness is notably the most irritating of status effects. It is not dealt in combat, but is a result of being dead, having intense laziness, and choosing to resurrect via the Spirit Healer. If you choose to, you can resurrect your character by a Spirit Healer, resulting in 25% durability damage to you armor and being weakened by 75% in all attributes. Thus, you've become Steve Urkel.
Immune is when you just can't be hurt by the attack. Only Chuck Norris is immune to everything. Creature's attributes tell how resistant they are to a certain element. If a creature is fully resistant, they are immune to damage for that type of damage. Again, Chuck Norris is the exception to the rule.
Bounce is when your character avoids being raped by an attack or spell. Like the other combat abilities, you can build up your dodge rating higher than Bill Clinton can dodge questions ("What do you mean by dodge?"). Again, a random roll via a percentage rating determines if you are hit by an attack. With some characters it is possible to dodge all attacks. These are called Twinks and they are hated by PvP players. Unless they, themselves, are twinks or on a twink's team.
When you die you run back to your body and all is well, much like in real life. Death happens quite often in WoW, and should not be looked upon as a negative, until you reach level 80. After reaching level 80, you are expected never to die, and if you do, everyone is allowed to spam insulting macros at you, such as /Spit, /Laugh, /Cry, and more recently /Hug.
If one does die, the only way to avoid the shame of death is via quick resurrection. If you are forced to resurrect at a Spirit Healer, it is advisable to wait for death once more, as Resurrection Sickness is more commonly known as Super-Mega-Turbo-AIDS.
Honor Kills
An Honor Kill is when you kill another player who is incapable of defending him/herself. You get 50 Honor Points for killing a character your level or above. For each level below your current level, you get an additional 50 points unless you are a Rogue. Rogues receive 100 points per level. If your character appears as a "skull" to the killed player, the murderer also receives bonus points. Camping bodies is encouraged by Blizzard, and killing characters in the middle of escort quests are not only rewarded by extra bonus points, but are great fun to chat about in your guild chat.
Many people falsely believe that while in contested territory, there is an understood rule that you will not attack enemy factions while they are completing quests. This can be signaled by a bow or dancing with enemy characters. In reality, this marks the start of a race to see who can complete their quest first and then go find and kill the character that you were having such a good time with only 15 minutes earlier.
Armor in World of Warcraft can be split into 3 categories: rags, pillows and tanks. Rags are better for spell casters, Pillows are better for comfort, and Tanks are better for defense. As you increase in level, you will gain access to more powerful armor. A similar system was originally used in the game Super Mario Bros, however SnowFlake quickly remedied this by having the game creators shot.
Armor Quality
There are different levels of armor quality in World of Warcraft, ranging from Gay to Algar Puce. Gay items are the worst quality, often nicknamed "Bludywastemybagspaceargh". The highest level of armor quality is Legendary (colored Brown); these items are Legendary in quality and reputation. If you wear it, people call you a twink. That means you suck because you bought your gold on eBay, then bought your character's armor on eBay. Dude.
Defense: Increases your ability to defend yourself from formidable foes, such as Bill Clinton
Damage: Increases your ability to build dams. This is useful in PvP if you need to block a river. Currently there are 0 rivers in WoW, making the skill difficult to train...
Summoning: Increases your ability to summon demons. Summoning is performed by reading anything backwards. example b00n. This spell summons a being of no power whatsoever.
Dying: Increases your ability to die. If you have high Dying, you will die before you reach 0 Health.
Baking: Actually having little to do with the cooking of wheat based products, baking involves intense sessions whereby your character must remain in a state of utter AFKness for at least two hours.
Killing: Increases your ability to kill. When you have 24 Killing ability points, you will be able to call down Chuck Norris from the heavens to roundhouse kick your foes. This is the equivalent of God Mode.
Wiping: Increases the speed at which you wipe the floor till it's spotless. This is, obviously, a vital skill in WoW. Who do you think cleans up the seas of gnome blood and tears from kara pugs?
Mining: Low budget way of making characters feel good, mining actually consists in looking for mines and jumping of them once you find them, you can also ask a friend to jump and laugh as he dies. This is also a excellent way to raise your Dying skills. Mining cultural beliefs consist in calling your friend a noob after he dies.
Leatherworking: An ancient and perfected skill in which players stab animal skins with needles until it transforms into something green and leet.
Twinks are a common species of fag that breeds deep within the forests of warsong gulch. Their diet mainly consists of noobs who the day before realized that right click means attack. Dominant males of twink herds are also known to wear fishing hats.
Known species of twinks:
- Rouges
- Whorriros
- (NOT)Shaman
- Whorlocks
- Mother-Funking-Running-Hunters
The Burning Crusade
In early 2007, an expansion of World of Warcraft was released called the Burning Crusade. Burning Crusade refers to emo pyromaniac kids's crusade to set things on fire, although it as also been likened to having herpes.
The new continent added to WoW in the Burning Children is Outland. It has been overrun by Clinjas, and most quests in the area deal with killing them. The only way to reach Outland is through the Bright Portal, which is guarded by Chuck Norris. You have to beat Chuck Norris to get into Outland. This is impossible unless you have a Chuck Norris helping you. Due to the paradoxical situation involving access to the Bright Portal, it has been reported that more than fourteen keen WoW players have committed adultery and/or suicide.
N00b Elves
A new race added in the Burning Children. They used to be plain old elves working for Santa Claus, but eventually they became so n00bish (plus the fact that they couldn't stop huffing mana) that Santa fired them, and they hate him for it. They joined the Horde because all its other members also hate Santa. Their homeland is called "Quel'thalas", which is Thalassian for "Noobie area".
They're the only Horde race that can be Bubbleboys.
Adding the N00b Elves to the Horde, however, was a very st00pid move because now all the 2-year-olds that are new are creating n00b elves, and this will lower the Horde average IQ to a measly 4, which somehow increases it even though they're n00bs. However it does increase the amount of babies they eat. N00b elves are constantly accused of being homosexual, mainly due to the fact that their mounts are cocks that come in every color of the rainbow.
Night elves hate N00b elves because they are better looking than them, this leads to many arena matches, usually involving all females and not involving any clothes... When this happens, multiple things can occur:
1. The server may crash due to overactivity in one area by horny nerds.
2. Players may record the matches for viewing on YouTube.
3. GMs may "accidentally" cancel the match, causing the female avatars to have to start all over again.
Note: # 3 is unlikely due to the fact that most GM's are too busy throwing players off cliffs or disposing of their mana potions.
Chinese Farmers
A kind of weird race in the World of Warcraft is the Chinese farmers. Watch out, 'cause these geeky bastards will try to rob you!
We suspect, that these Chinese farmers, in fact, originate from China. However, the Blizzard devs grew jealous of them, and deleted all of their first characters. They lost their minds, and became what we call, to this day, Koreans. They will also spend 25 hours a day in an internet cafe gold grinding until they die.
Instances are areas in the world where only 5 people can be inside it at a time. If a 6th person enters the hard drives of the original 5 will burn up.
Dire Mall
Dire Mall is a level 55-60 instance that is actually one large shopping mall. It has three wings, called The Bay, Wal-Mart and Food Court.
In The Bay, the players have to fight off defective merchandise and poor customer service, among other powerful demons. The boss is called "Customer Service", who has 427864336424 health and hits for infinite damage. The only way to kill him is to summon Chuck Norris, who can kill him before getting hit by his attack, although Chuck Norris can probably survive Customer Service for at least a few hours.
In Wal-Mart, the players must fend off evil Satanic employees, low prices and even more powerful elementals. The boss is called "Happy Face of Doom", who has only 5 health, but in the first millisecond of the battle, he stares at you so hard you just die. The stare even goes through invincibility potions, blindness and nullifies soulstones.
In the Food Court, you have to kill burgers, pasta and even stronger food. This wing is the easiest wing if you have Homer Simpson on your side, who will simply eat the food. The boss is called "Salad". The only way to damage him is to eat him, but he is poisoned so eating him will also kill you before you finish. Homer Simpson however, is immune to poison. =D
The Deadmines
This instance is similar to Minesweeper, except all the mines are dead. None of them will go off. The instance is also infested with the Defias, a group of wannabe terrorists who try to plant live mines. You have to put a flag on them. Players must give attention to these mobs because some of the are said to be elite- this means they can make suicide bombs killing all players in 500 yards blast radius.
Bosses in Deadmines
Sneed: This goblin will use his Shredder to make you into Diced Human (or Diced Gnome, or Diced Whatever). The simplest way to kill him is to unplug his Shredder, forcing Sneed to come out. Sneed himself only has 2 health, fortunately.
Smite:See the article on Smite for a good explanation of this boss.
Cookie: A giant Oreo. You have to eat him before it goes bad. The Cookie is so big, that is impossible without Homer Simpson, who eats at a rate of 100000000 tons per second. The only problem is to get Homer Simpson off the couch.
VanBeef: A big butcher van. You have to destroy it before it runs over you. A very easy boss, since you can simply pop its tires with a gun, so it can't run you over. Known affectionately as VanQueef due to his ultimate attack which is to let out a supersonic vagina fart causing 666-6666 damage to all nearby Alliance noobs not wearing ear plugs.
Yag eht Fladnag: A giant pink onion flavored platypus with gills and a silly blue tail. It has never been seen nor has its existence been proven. Rumors say he doesn't exist, but of course we don't trust rumors.(Read his name backwords)
Wrath of the Lich King
In November 2008, SnowFlake released a second expansion for World of Warcraft called Wrath of the Lich King. The goal for this expansion pack consists of travelling to the brand-new continent of Northrend to kill even more monsters in order to reach the new level cap of 80. Some new features include the barber shop, achievements, and the moronic Death Knight class.
This is the new continent added to Azeroth in Wrath of the Lich King. Also where Santa Claus plays World of Warcraft when he is sick of whipping elves to make toys for those brats we all love.
Death Knight
One of the new addition in Wrath of the Lich King consist of a new "hero" class called the Death Knight. Not only does Death Knights totally NOT fit into the lore, but they are stupidly overpowered without any valid reason of being so. Their talents trees specializations are Blood, Frost and Unholy (aka I-res-into-a-ghoul-to-suck-more). Death Knights are available to every single race in the game, which again, is something totally stupid. To create a Death Knight on a realm, one must possess a character level 55 and up on the said realm.
Arthas, the Lich King
As of early 2009, no additional information have been released about the endgame content, the final raid, which consists of killing the Lich King (Arthas) in the Icecrown Citdael. The Lich King is rumored to possess a billion HP and 27 total phases of combat. His melee strikes are said to randomly hit between 1 and 100 000 damage with a 100% critical strike chance. Some also say that he will not have an aggro mechanism, but that is unlikely to happen.
The World of Warcraft achievements are simply another way of making the greasy, nerdy, virgin subscribers keep paying per month. There are hundreds of meaningless achievements in WoW, many of said achievements are actually IMPOSSIBLE to get! Each comes with its own set number of "points" even though for doing something that is insanely hard (such as sneezing without closing your eyes twice in a row) will get you the same amount of points as if you just bought a bag(no kidding).Some achievements even grant prizes, one of which is a pet skunk which will occasionally fart and kill any players within a 50-mile radius (including the skunk's owner).

Why Are Childhood Vaccines So Important?
It is always better to prevent a disease than to treat it after it occurs.
Diseases that used to be common in this country and around the world, including polio, measles, diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), rubella (German measles), mumps, tetanus, rotavirus and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) can now be prevented by vaccination. Thanks to a vaccine, one of the most terrible diseases in history – smallpox – no longer exists outside the laboratory. Over the years vaccines have prevented countless cases of disease and saved millions of lives.
Immunity Protects us From Disease
Immunity is the body's way of preventing disease. Children are born with an immune system composed of cells, glands, organs, and fluids located throughout the body. The immune system recognizes germs that enter the body as "foreign invaders" (called antigens) and produces proteins called antibodies to fight them.
The first time a child is infected with a specific antigen (say measles virus), the immune system produces antibodies designed to fight it. This takes time . . . usually the immune system can't work fast enough to prevent the antigen from causing disease, so the child still gets sick. However, the immune system "remembers" that antigen. If it ever enters the body again, even after many years, the immune system can produce antibodies fast enough to keep it from causing disease a second time. This protection is called immunity.
It would be nice if there were a way to give children immunity to a disease without their having to get sick first.
In fact there is:
Vaccines contain the same antigens (or parts of antigens) that cause diseases. For example, measles vaccine contains measles virus. But the antigens in vaccines are either killed, or weakened to the point that they don't cause disease. However, they are strong enough to make the immune system produce antibodies that lead to immunity. In other words, a vaccine is a safer substitute for a child's first exposure to a disease. The child gets protection without having to get sick. Through vaccination, children can develop immunity without suffering from the actual diseases that vaccines prevent.
More Facts
- Newborn babies are immune to many diseases because they have antibodies they got from their mothers. However, this immunity goes away during the first year of life.
- If an unvaccinated child is exposed to a disease germ, the child's body may not be strong enough to fight the disease. Before vaccines, many children died from diseases that vaccines now prevent, such as whooping cough, measles, and polio. Those same germs exist today, but because babies are protected by vaccines, we don't see these diseases nearly as often.
- Immunizing individual children also helps to protect the health of our community, especially those people who cannot be immunized (children who are too young to be vaccinated, or those who can't receive certain vaccines for medical reasons), and the small proportion of people who don't respond to a particular vaccine.
- Vaccine-preventable diseases have a costly impact, resulting in doctor's visits, hospitalizations, and premature deaths. Sick children can also cause parents to lose time from work.

ST. PAUL, Minn. - To walk the streets of St. Paul's Frogtown neighborhood now, you might never know how rough the area was in the 1990s.
"It was a perception that if the cops were getting out of the car to talk to you, you've done something wrong," explained Arnoldo "Arnie" Curiel, Asst. Professor at the College of St. Scholastica. "They weren't necessarily people that you trusted. We used to call it 'drive by policing'."
But Curiel wanted Frogtown to change. He had grown up there and he had an idea. He called it "Shop with Cops."
Curiel set up a system of raising money and finding volunteers in the police department and in the public. Then, he arranged to get them all together on one day in December for some retail therapy. He started the program with just 20 kids in 1999. Last year, there were 270 children who took part.
"Really, the shopping is about them buying things for their family members and then after they're all done buying for their family members, they buy for themselves. We ask the parents to send them with a rough Christmas list," said Curiel.
He added, "It's really not about the gift. It's about the relationship with the police officer and it's also about that child being able to buy something for Mom and Dad."
It's about a generation of Frogtown kids who know the men and women in blue and become their friends.
"A lot of people talk about what they've done or what they want to do to make something better, said St. Paul Police Chief Tom Smith. "Arnie was of the big reasons why we turned that community around to one of the safest communities."

A Colorado Springs man has been fighting for years to beat a deadly form of cancer.
His fight is coming to an end, but not before he gets to fulfill a lifelong dream.
When Mike Cercuozzi was called in to tow a motor home two years ago, he had no idea he would make a lifelong friend.
That motor home belonged to Kenny Blutt.
"We started talking about how he was in the military, and he was a retired colonel in the Air Force...I'm retired first sergeant from the Army," Cercuozzi said.
Another thing they had in common: a love for cars.
"This car in particular, Kenny's '69 Camaro...now fully restored."
Dennis Blutt told 11 News that it was always Kenny's dream to get his Camaro fixed up.
When Kenny was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer in 2004, his family didn't think he'd get the chance to see it looking like new.
But a few months ago, Kenny's tow truck driver and newfound friend Mike offered to help..
"He told me that his progression was getting worse and worse...I said 'you bring it to the shop and I'll restore it.'"
When Mike found out how little time might be left, he knew he would have to work fast.
"That's when everybody at MGM Collision chipped in and stayed late on the weekends and pulled together to get it done."
Now Dennis taking the car back to his brother hoping they'll get one last trip down memory lane.
"We're trying to get back down there for the Friday night cruise," Dennis said.
The fully restored vehicle, which Kenny bought brand new in 1969, only has 70,000 miles on it. The Blutt family hopes to have it around for awhile, as part of the legacy their beloved family member leaves behind.

News and recent developments
Clara Thomas started with her work on Solar Cooking in 2004. She is now chairman of Solar Cooking Foundation the Netherlands and advisor of Horn of Africa Regional Environmental Centre and Network ( HOAREC/N ) since spring of 2011.
Roughly twice a year she visits SCN projects in Uganda and Ethiopia.
- November 2007: Solar Cooking Foundation the Netherlands (SCN) has teamed up with Partnership for Integrated Sustainable Development Association (PISDA), a local non-governmental organization, to introduce solar cooking in four rural villages around Debre Zeit. PISDA has worked with female heads of households on a number of projects, such as tree planting, fuel-efficient wood stoves, and savings and credit associations. SCN's Clara Thomas, along with PISDA's Ato Guillilat, left early mornings on a two-wheeled horse wagon to visit the four rural villages. They first introduced solar cookers to village elders, and then spent a week training a group of solar cooking instructors. A year-long initial program was agreed upon to ensure continued follow up in the form of monthly collective solar cooking meetings to share experiences and advice. The project will likely expand next year. Solar Bereket — will produce CooKit solar cookers by hand for the project. Towards the end of 2007 he will transfer his experience and knowledge to the women in rural areas so that they can make their own CooKits. Injera, a pancake-like bread, is a local staple that cannot be cooked with simple solar cookers. (It requires a 60-centimeter diameter pan and baking temperature of at least 220°C.) A research program is underway to find a solar method for baking injera. The present cooking culture does not permit introducing collective solar injera baking through a large bakery or otherwise. In the meantime, injera will continue to be baked three times per week on a fuel-efficient wood stove.

May 6, 2016
A squadron of F-15E's at Seymour Johnson has been grounded because of sequestration cuts.
The base says the 336th Fighter Squadron will not conduct flight training so the Air Force can reduce training hours by some 45,000 hours between now and October 1st.
It leaves the 4th Fighter Wing with only one operational squadron of F-15's. "The stand-down will have a significant impact on the wing's overall operational readiness and ability to support contingencies around the world," said Col. Jeannie Leavitt, 4th Fighter Wing commander. "Combat skills and proficiency are perishable and take time to be regained. Fighter aviation is a highly demanding endeavor and there is no room for error."
Seymour Johnson says aircrews lose currency to fly combat missions after 60 days of not flying and it takes approximately 90 days of training to return the fighter squadron to combat mission ready status.
The 336th, also known as the World Famous Rocketeer, will be forced to shift their focus to ground training, use flight simulators and conducting academic training during the stand down. The air wing's commander says using the simulators cannot replace real world flying.

This type of information is essential for forecasting changes in aggregate consumer behavior. Since the late 1940s, these surveys have been produced quarterly through 1977 and monthly thereafter. Each monthly survey probes a different aspect of consumer confidence. Open-ended questions are asked concerning evaluations and expectations about personal finances, employment, price changes, and the national business situation. Additional questions probe buying intentions for automobiles and the respondent's appraisals of present market conditions for purchasing houses, automobiles, and other durables.

4. Dumbbell front squat: Hold a dumbbell at the sternum (the center of the chest) and do a basic front squat. Place feet a little wider than shoulder-width apart, hips stacked over knees, knees over ankles. Inhale and unlock the hips, bringing them back as the knees begin to bend. Keep the chest and shoulders upright, and continue until the hips are slightly less than 90 degrees from the ground. On the way back up, engage the core and drive through the heels to return to standing.
5. Kettlebell swing: Stand up straight, with feet a bit wider than hip-distance apart. Grab hold of the kettlebell with both hands, keeping the palms face down and arms in front of the body. Keep the knees slightly bent and drive the hips and bell back (it's not a squat, so the knees shouldn't have to bend that much), lowering the body just a bit to an athletic stance. In one fluid motion, explosively drive the hips forward while swinging the kettlebell, engaging the glutes and core.
Upper Body
6. Push-up: Get into a plank position with hands planted a little bit wider than shoulder width apart. Keep the elbows close to the body throughout the movement. Ground the toes into the floor and engage the abs and back so the body is neutral. Lower the body in one straight line until the chest touches the floor. Keeping the core engaged, exhale, and push back to the start position.
7. Overhead neutral grip press: Stand with the feet shoulder-width apart core tight. Raise the dumbbell, kettlebell, or barbell up to the shoulders with palms facing each other and the elbows below the wrists. Press the weights upward until the arms are fully extended overhead, and then lower back to the shoulders.
