Move follows prior attempt to cut Goldsmith's budget, which was restored by the council
Amount that San Diego Mayor Bob Filner vetoed Wednesday from City Attorney Jan Goldsmith's budget.
San Diego Mayor Bob Filner used his veto to cut more than $500,000 in funding from the budget of City Attorney Jan Goldsmith, a political rival at City Hall since Filner took office seven months ago.
The veto document dated Wednesday shows lines through the funding portions dealing with the City Attorney's Office, along with Filner's initials.
Filner did not respond to a request for comment made through his office on Friday.
Filner proposed cutting $1.4 million from Goldsmith's $43.6 million budget in April — the only cut in the entire city budget that Filner proposed. The mayor later reduced the amount of the reduction to $508,000.
Earlier this month, a City Council majority in a 5-4 vote restored what was cut when formally adopting the budget. If that vote split stands, it won't be enough to override a mayoral veto. Six votes are needed.
Goldsmith has said that the budget reduction means he would likely be forced to make cuts in popular programs, such as the Neighborhood Prosecution Unit, which aren't mandated by the city charter.
Goldsmith declined to comment Friday except to say, "We appreciate the support of the City Council majority."
Democrat Filner and Republican Goldsmith, the only two citywide elected officials, differ as to what role a city attorney should play. Filner would prefer one as a private adviser, and Goldsmith sees himself as accountable publicly to the people.
Filner's veto came one day after the mayor ordered a member of his police detail to remove Andrew Jones, Goldsmith's second-in-command, from a closed meeting regarding lawsuits that involve the city.
After the meeting, Filner was the target of criticism from City Council members whose description of the mayor's behavior ranged from wrong and offensive to inexcusable.
The city's charter gives the mayor power to preside over closed session meetings, and the Brown Act, which governs open meetings rules in California, allows for the removal of disruptive people from any meeting.
Filner said in the meeting that Jones was disruptive. Jones denied that, saying he was trying to get a question answered.
The Brown Act and the charter appear silent on whether the presiding officer can call for the removal of an individual, but Robert's Rules of Order gives wide berth to those running meetings to take such acts.
It's unclear how or whether a closed session dealing with city lawsuits can proceed if the city attorney's designate is removed from the meeting.
The city's municipal code indicates that the mayor may have overstepped his bounds.
According to the code, the city attorney or one of his deputies must attend all meetings of the council, and upon invitation, attend any meetings of any council committee.
The meeting at the center of the controversy was a closed session of a council meeting.
"The presence of a city attorney representative is legally required at all council meetings, and the mayor cannot avoid that just because he's in a bad mood," San Diego Republican Lawyers President Ryan Darby said in a statement.
The veto and the showdown in the closed session are the latest examples in the growing rift between the two offices.
They have also clashed on issues such as medical pot dispensaries, a $35 million bond issue and Filner's governance of the city.

Mukai is taking on the role of Eisuke, a former bassist of a rock band who gave up his music dreams to carry on the tradition of his family's French restaurant. The show will involve a love triangle as Kuninaka and Takimoto play rivals for Eisuke's heart.
Kuninaka has been cast as Eisuke's older girlfriend Maria, who works at a bank. She is shocked to learn that Mukai has abandoned his music to devote himself to the restaurant, leading her to uncertainty about their relationship. Takimoto's character is a 20-year-old college student named Chie who comes from a farming family. Although she initially had a bad impression of Eisuke, she begins to develop feelings for him after tasting his cooking.
SMAP's Inagaki will play Tokio, the owner of a competing French restaurant. In the past, he was fond of the restaurant that Eisuke's mother ran, but after she passed away, he deceived Eisuke's father and bought out the restaurant's chefs and staff. Knowing of Eisuke's ability as a chef, Tokio views him as a rival.
Eisuke's friends, who were part of his band ROCKHEAD, are being played by Tsukamoto (guitarist) and Miura (vocalist). Both of them help Eisuke with his restaurant. --Tokyograph

CoreLink DMC-400 Dynamic Memory Controller
Optimized and efficient access to the DRAM is critical to the performance of any SoC. As the number of processing elements on a chip increases, the demand for data increases. As the DRAM technology evolves, the frequency of operation rises, and the complexity of making best use of the DRAM increases. Managing the differing demands of multiple processing elements while trying to make optimum use of DRAM is the challenge faced by a Dynamic Memory Controller.
The CoreLink DMC-400 is ARM's fourth generation of Memory Controller. CoreLink DMC-400 has been designed to meet the needs of different masters in the system while trying to achieve maximum bandwidth from the DRAM. CoreLink DMC-400 is a key part of ARM's End-to-End Quality of Service (QoS) scheme which includes features distributed across both Interconnect and Memory Controllers.
The CoreLink DMC-400 has an advanced QoS based scheduling and arbitration algorithm. QoS values defined by the system are used to re-order transations to be sent to memory. The DMC arbitration uses bank and row status to aggressively re-order transactions to optimise both bank parallelism and in row hits.
The CoreLink DMC-400 has been specified, designed and validated in conjunction with ARM's CoreLink-400 System IP.

Flak jackets are a form of padded protective clothing designed to provide at least partial protection from things such as blunt-force trauma, shrapnel and other projectiles. This can be seen when it protected Iruka Umino from kunai and fūma shuriken while he was searching for Naruto and the Scroll of Seals and was ambushed by Mizuki. They can also prevent lethal injuries from swords and other weapons as seen during Baki's fight with Hayate Gekkō. For the most part, they have superseded the plate armour widely used by shinobi during the Warring States Period and the First Shinobi World War. They are usually worn by chūnin and jōnin over their normal clothing in most villages, although the design varies among the villages and have also changed over time. The jackets are among the most iconic pieces of shinobi equipment. Most of them have pockets or scroll pouches, which can be used to store scrolls, weapons, and supplies. This allows a ninja to access them quickly and/or quietly with only one hand, as seen with Kakashi Hatake's case when he normally does this secretly to extract a kunai.
- In episode 190 of Naruto: Shippūden, multiple genin from Iwagakure are seen wearing flak jackets.
- Several genin in Sunagakure such as Matsuri and Ittetsu have been seen wearing a variant of their village's standard flak jackets, items which are usually given to shinobi of chūnin rank or higher.
- Flak jackets seemed to have been invented prior to the First Shinobi World War with the Gold and Silver Brothers, the Second Raikage, and the Second Tsuchikage being the earliest shinobi to be seen wearing them.
- In episode 316 of Naruto: Shippūden, many of the reincarnated shinobi are stated to be genin-level. Nevertheless, nearly all of them are seen wearing flak jackets.

The 2011 Import and Export Market for Metal-Rolling Mills in Philippines
- June 2010
- Region: Philippines
- 12 pages
- ICON Group International
On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on metal-rolling mills in Philippines face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying metal-rolling mills to Philippines? How important is Philippines compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of metal-rolling mills vary from one country of origin to another in Philippines? On the supply side, Philippines also exports metal-rolling mills. Which countries receive the most exports from Philippines? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?
This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for metal-rolling mills in Philippines. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for metal-rolling mills for those countries serving Philippines via exports, or supplying from Philippines via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.
In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Philippines fits into the world market for imported and exported metal-rolling mills. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Philippines in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Philippines is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Philippines compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.
After the worldwide summary in Chapter 2 of both imports and exports of metal-rolling mills, Chapter 3 goes into detail on imports, but for each major country of origin serving Philippines. A "major" market is defined as a country where Philippines represents a substantially large share of either imports or exports. For each major country exporting to Philippines, one can thus observe how important Philippines is to that exporting country compared to other countries of the world. Chapter 4 does the same, but for exports of metal-rolling mills originating from Philippines, for each major country of destination. In doing so, one can discover the share that Philippines has in each major market; this share value is often used as a measure of competitiveness for Philippines. In all cases, the total dollar volume and percentage share values by major trading partner are provided. Combined, Chapters 3 and 4 present a the total picture for imports and exports of metal-rolling mills to and from Philippines to and from all other major countries in the world. "Metal-Rolling Mills" as a category is defined in this report following the definition given by the United Nations Statistics Division Classification Registry using the Standard International Trade Classification, Revision 3 (SITC, Rev. 3). The SITC code that defined "metal-rolling mills" is 73721 . SHOW LESS READ MORE >

UnderGround Forums >> Jack Brown Interview: Live to Fight
Ignore | Edit | Warn Admin | Vote Down | Vote Up | Delete Post
Underground Blog
Member Since: 12/3/08
Posts: 13404
This is number ninety-nine in Jack's series of interviews with MMA fighters and personalities, and for this particular interview, we're very pleased to feature two key people involved with the non-profit Live To Fight (LTF), Ottavia Bourdain and Kristen Brown. LTF, founded by The UG's own Kristen Brown, "seeks to raise money for people in the martial arts, MMA, and combat sports community who are fighting cancer and other life-threatening illnesses." Please enjoy the conversation below.
Ottavia Bourdain
Jack Brown: You are a celebrity who is becoming almost as well-known for your love of BJJ and MMA as your other pursuits. How did you get involved in martial arts, what is your current training regimen, and do you have any competitions coming up?
Ottavia Bourdain: I'm really not a celebrity. My husband is. Let's be honest. People didn't start paying attention to me because of my talent or achievements in the sport. People started paying attention to me because of who I'm married to.
At the beginning, it was quite embarrassing. I was a white belt and I was constantly asked for interviews about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I was mortified because there were many far better practitioners out there who deserved the attention. But then something changed. More and more people started coming up to me to tell me how they got interested in BJJ when they heard me talking about it or how they took a trial class because they enjoyed reading about my training on social media. So I decided to embrace the spotlight. If I can get more people, especially women, interested in the sport, it can only be a good thing.
I started practicing Muay Thai in 2007 just to get back in shape after the birth of my daughter. I loved it, but it wasn't an obsession. Things changed when I enrolled at Renzo Gracie's academy in 2011, and I quickly developed an addiction to Jiu-Jitsu. After a few weeks, I was training every day, doing multiple sessions each day, and I haven't stopped since.
I don't have any competitions coming up at the moment and I'm planning to fatten up during the Holidays. The next big tournament is probably going to be the IBJJF European Open at the end of January.
JB: Like UFC Middleweight Champion, Chris Weidman, you are one of Live To Fight's board members. How did you first hear about the non-profit organization and what does your role on the board involve?
OB: I met Kristen while I was organizing a fundraising seminar for the late Frank Edge. Like her, I am a member of The Underground so we connected easily. It was love at first sight. You know when you meet somebody for the first time and it feels like you've known each other forever? That's exactly what happened when we met. When she asked me to be on the board of LTF, I immediately said yes. Kristen is just wonderful. She has a contagious enthusiasm and a wicked sense of humor. When we aren't planning something for LTF, we enjoy having lengthy conversations about narcotics, boobs, and Carlos Condit.
It is a huge honor and a big responsibility to be on the Board of LTF. We all bring to the table our own accomplishments and strengths. I am Kristen's personal sounding board for her to bounce ideas off of as well as her shrink. I do have decent connections, and I can help reach people in the BJJ and MMA world who can be an asset to the organization. I will be helping procure sponsors and organizing upcoming events and fundraisers. All LTF board members are responsible for voting on and selecting the beneficiaries who we will be helping.
JB: In your experience, what are the things that are most vital to those individuals and their families who are dealing with life-threatening illnesses, and how do you think Live To Fight can help them?
OB: First and foremost, of course, is good medical care. They need the certainty that everything that can be done is being done as competently and comprehensively as possible. Next, they need support systems and safe and secure places and the time to be with loved ones to the greatest degree possible. And finally, they need access to the right information to allow people to make their own informed decisions. LTF seeks to address all of these issues.
We are here to help people in need in the martial arts community - from the fighters we cheer for, to our instructors, to our training partners and their families. Beyond financial assistance, LTF wants to connect those who fight for a living with those who are fighting to live and to offer them a sense of empowerment and inspiration.
Kristen Brown
Jack Brown: You certainly seem to have many connections in the mixed martial arts world. How did you first get involved with martial arts and how did you eventually connect with the larger MMA community?
Kristen Brown: I'm a TUF noob. I became a casual fan of MMA about seven years ago, and I regret not being around from the inception of the sport that I have come to love so much. At UFC 107, when I saw BJ Penn licking Diego Sanchez's blood off his gloves, I knew I was hooked! I got as many old Pride, WEC, Strikeforce, Pancrase, and Vale Tudo fight videos that I could get my hands on.
My first live event was an amateur fight in New Jersey, and after that I saw two possible roads to follow for my newfound addiction. Since I couldn't walk in heels, a ring girl was out. Instead, I saw myself as the lovechild of Ariel Helwani and Mike Straka with some Tina Fey thrown in. The Underground's very own Garv gave me my first writing assignment. I spent a glamorous couple of hours at a vitamin shop in the mall with two best friends who also happened to cause serious damage inside the cage for a living. The fighters were Chris Weidman and Gian Villante. I was working in a laboratory at the time, and I left my career in science to try and pursue my passion. I did fighter profiles, some play-by-play, and post-fight write-ups for a few different websites and local papers. I loved interviewing fighters, and it was always my goal to give the audience a glimpse of who they were outside of the cage. Over the years, I have met some great people and I have remained friends with many of them.
JB: You are a proud cancer survivor who has fought and won several battles with the illness over your lifetime. How did that background merge with your love of martial arts and lead to you founding Live To Fight?
KB: Anyone who has fought and beaten cancer should be proud! My battle started when I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease, a type of lymphoma, as a teenager. I went through a rigorous treatment course of chemotherapy and radiation. Over the years, I remained cancer-free. However, due to the intensity of my treatment, I developed many long-term side effects and some of them have been almost as life-threatening as the cancer itself.
I think that everything in my life, including my love of martial arts, has led me to founding the non-profit organization, Live To Fight (LTF). A few years ago, I covered a fundraiser for the UFC's Dan Miller and his young son, DJ, who was very ill and in need of a kidney transplant. Dan Miller and his family, including UFC lightweight, Jim Miller, were so grateful for the outpouring of support from the MMA community. I remember thinking that someone should start a charity where we can come together to support our own in times of need.
Fast forward a few years, and in the winter of 2013, I underwent a double mastectomy for breast cancer. I feel blessed that I am again cancer-free and I am on the road to recovery. I got so much support from my friends in the MMA community, especially on The UG. At the same time, one of my best friends, UGer Reggie "Wreckker" Cardiel was suffering from stage 4 cancer. Exactly one month after my surgery, my BJJ teacher, Mark Staniszewski's, one year old baby boy, Jake, was diagnosed with a rare pediatric cancer, also stage 4. Hospitals and sickness were commonplace to me, but I could not bear to see the people I loved suffering. I felt so lucky to be alive and to be cancer-free, and yet I also felt so helpless because I could not fight these battles for them. That cliché saying that, "Everything happens for a reason," rang so true and it all clicked. Everything that I had gone through in my life, all of the sickness and pain, made sense to me. I knew I had to start a charity for people like Reggie and Jake and the other people in our community who are suffering.
LTF seeks to raise money for people in the martial arts, MMA, and combat sports community who are fighting cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. Reggie was a pro fighter and tough as nails, but he could not beat his disease. He passed away in May of 2013. I swore to myself that I would do whatever was in my power to not let that same fate happen to my teacher's son, Jake. What started because of Reggie and Jake has become so much bigger than I ever imagined. There are so many people in this community who are sick or have family members that are fighting for their lives. My slogan is, "Some live to fight and others fight to live." For some people that fight is a matter of life and death.
Sadly, the MMA community recently experienced this when UFC Heavyweight Shane Del Rosario went into cardiac arrest. It's hard to wrap your head around someone so strong and powerful now fighting for his life. It's heartbreaking. That's the thing about illness, it doesn't discriminate. This is exactly why I started my organization. We will be donating all of the proceeds of shirt sales and any donations we receive through the first week in December to the Del Rosario family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Shane and we are all hoping for a miracle. I, for one, believe in miracles. I have to. If I didn't, I wouldn't be here myself.
JB: What has the process of establishing Live To Fight involved and who has been especially supportive?
KB: I have been involved with volunteering and charity work for as long as I can remember. To be able to combine my two favorite things, helping people and fighting, is a dream come true for me. But to be perfectly honest, it is quite an arduous and tedious process. We are a legitimate, New York State, not-for-profit organization, and we are legally allowed to raise and distribute funds. We are working on our 501c3 status and donations will soon be retroactively tax deductible to the fullest extent that the law will allow. So if there are any super wealthy philanthropic individuals out there who wish to make some huge donations, feel free. Anything worthwhile is hard work. I will not stop until LTF is a household name amongst MMA fans and until we have the resources to ensure that everyone that needs our help gets it. I don't know if that is passion or insanity or a little bit of both!
I also have to thank Cindy O, Crooklyn, Renzo Gracie, Lou Neglia, Ariel Helwani, Eric Jackman, Brian Levick, and Mike DeLuise, as well as Defense Soap, East Coast MMA, Roar Beverages, Titan Body Wash and Digitsu for their support. Thanks to Dechert LLP for their time-consuming legal work, Jon Bier for believing in me and LTF, Renato Laranja for taking time away from his women and tournaments to support us. And special thanks to Dave Martin and Randel Aleman for everything.
JB: You had a special event at the end of October. What should people know about that and other ways that they can be involved with Live To Fight?
KB: We had our first event a month ago, a no-gi seminar featuring Chris Weidman, Jim Miller, John Danaher, and Renato Laranja. It was very successful and everyone had an amazing time. We are working out the logistics of distributing the funds raised to our first beneficiary. Digitsu was on hand to film the event and it will be made available for sale as an online instructional video with proceeds going to LTF. Bobby Razak was there and I am really thrilled because he filmed a series of LTF short films with Chris, the Miller Brothers, and me.
Everyone working with my organization is donating their time, energy, and services free of charge. My legal team and I are committed to ensure that the money raised by LTF goes directly to the people who need it. The primary goal of LTF is to help pay for medical treatment. However, that is just one aspect of our organization. In the big picture, LTF is looking for financial backing and corporate donors. LTF would like to partner with companies and fight promotions to offer MMA wish granting. We want to send people to fights, to meet their favorite fighters, and give people the opportunity to get away from the world of sickness.
We are also looking for instructors and hosts for future martial arts seminars, fighters to represent our brand, and companies to partner with that can take us to the next level. Those things are on the grand scale. However, even the smallest thing can help. We are selling t-shirts, looking for donations, and trying to raise awareness and grow our brand through various social media platforms. The more people who know about LTF, the more people we can potentially help.
You don't have to start a charity to make a difference but I do believe that all people have a responsibility to give back to others in their time of need. If you have not been personally touched by cancer or a life-threatening illness, chances are you will be. Whether you are a forever white belt like me, a professional fighter like Reggie, or the son of a BJJ and Judo World Champion like Jake, sickness is the ultimate equalizer. If and when illness strikes down someone in the martial arts, combat sports, and MMA community, we want to be there to help. I believe that LTF can make a difference and help so many people win their fights.

Blitzkrieg is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories given to protagonist Victor Vance by his brother Lance Vance from his apartment in Ocean Beach, Vice City.
Before doing this mission you need to own at least five Empire Building sites. Once acquired Victor goes to Lance's apartment who's worrying about the Mendez Brothers discovering that he and Victor actually stole their big shipment. After a brief argument, Lance picks up his phone and is eventually informed that the Mendez Cartel are going to attack all the business sites owned by Vance Crime Family. Victor and Lance both go outside and successfully after defending one of the empire sites, the mission ends.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- The Mendezes' goons are attacking all your businesses. Go help Lance defend the business
- Help Lance and your gang defend your business against the attacking goons
Post mission pager message
Mendez Brothers: I believe we have mutual interests. Call on us - soon.
The reward for completing this mission is $500 and the mission The Mugshot Longshot is unlocked.
- The location of the business attacked will vary depending on what businesses Victor owns (although there are several that are obtained as part of missions, so it will at minimum be one of them).
- Although Lance indicates the family "got our asses whipped elsewhere", just a few of the other properties may become lightly damaged.
- Blitzkrieg is German for lightning war. It was also the name for their "dominate-and/or-destroy" war tactic
- Throughout the Second World War, the Germans used the Blitzkrieg tactic to wipeout other European air bases and gain air superority over that nation and to break British moral during the Blitz. The attackers during the mission use the same tactic to try to take control of Victor's businesses, hence the mission name, but were thwarted.

|零尾 Reibi
|Naruto Shippūden the Movie: Bonds
|Appears in
The Zero-Tails (零尾, Reibi) is a Noh masked leech-like spirit sealed within the Land of the Sky. It only appears in Naruto Shippūden 2: Bonds.
The Zero-Tails is an evil spirit created by the dark thoughts and feelings of the downtrodden people. This parasitic creature will seek out and feed upon any negative emotions within one's heart and allows the spirit to create Dark Chakra (闇のチャクラ, Yami no Chakura). When anyone near the Zero-Tails is emotionally unstable, it will inhabit their body and take them over. This process is similar to a jinchūriki using the power of its Tailed Beast, but it does not require a human sacrifice, nor does its extraction kill the host.
The Zero-Tails has the ability to fire tendrils from its body and to also form them into hands, which can absorb chakra from ensnared victims, though there is a limit of how much can be absorbed. It seems to also be able to regenerate since its head reattached after being ripped off by Naruto in his four-tailed form. It also has a very large mouth that appears under its mask. Large molars grow from inside its mouth and it seemed to have tried to bite Sakura Haruno when she attacked it. It appears to have the ability to read the hearts of others, seeing as it saw Naruto's urge to rescue Sasuke Uchiha, and his pain when he was unable to bring him back.
The Dark Chakra produced by the Leech is derived from the darkness within the hearts of the people around it, and it grants the user of this chakra a great source of power, giving access to high-level techniques without even using hand seals while negating any potential drawbacks those techniques may otherwise bring, as well as powering up the entire Ancor Vantian floating fortress.
Plot Overview
The remnants of the Land of the Sky used the Zero-Tails to discretely create enough dark chakra to power their ultimate weapon, "Ancor Vantian". This dark chakra was also personally used by Shinnō, an agent of the Land of the Sky and the man who orchestrated the revival of the Sky ninja forces. He originally had Amaru's village attacked in order to have her fall into despair, in which the Zero-Tails can then take advantage and possess her, in order to gain more dark chakra, but when she overcame her sorrows with Naruto Uzumaki's help, the beast left her body and ended up in Ancor Vantian. When Shinnō was weakened by Sasuke Uchiha, he fused with the Zero-Tails in order to gain more power, but when Sasuke destroyed the tablet that restrained the beast and Naruto dealing the death blow to it, the beast went berserk and destroyed the entire sky fortress, killing all the soldiers aboard. What happened to it afterwards is unknown, but with it still on board of the fortress that Naruto eventually destroyed, the Zero-Tails may have been destroyed.
- Despite the beast referring to itself as Zero-Tails and Shinnō referring to it as a tailed beast, it is not really one of the original tailed beasts due to the fact that it was not born from the Ten-Tails.[1]

Both Lamvitu and Nilota were twins. They were born in Arusha in 1995. Having spent the formative years of their life in the North they had ingested water that had contained copious amount of fluorine. Like most of the youthful population their teeth had been systemically affected with the intake of fluoride.
The most conspicuous aspect of the face happened to be teeth which had turned brownish black with mottled enamel in the front providing the unesthetic feature to majoriy of youngsters who had been the inhabitants of the Arusha-Kilimanjaro-Moshi corridor.
Lamvitu and Nilota's parents had University education and with time their father had qualified as a professor after his thesis for a PhD had been lauded for its research base by the appointed referees.
Prof. Rishala and Mrs. Rishala were pro- active. They were forefront in matters related to the well being of the community they were serving. As parents they took adequate safeguards to see that Nilota and Lamvitu had the best of health care and education.
Last year Prof. Rishola had a total clearance of all his teeth carried out. With a gum disease that changed its course from periodontitis simplex to periodontitis complex and then to periodontosis, no matter how hard he tried to conserve his natural teeth, they underwent a gradual third degree movement.
With an extremely poor nutritional status since the primary school going age, the health of gums and alveolar bone supporting the teeth had been compromised. With resorption of bone the teeth had become extremely mobile.
In Morogoro, he had established a rapport with a herbalist who had claimed that his herbal potions would prove very beneficial in bringing about a 'firmness or tightening' of teeth around their sockets. Despite the application of salves around the gums there was no amelioration of the condition of the structures in the mouth.
Finally better sense had prevailed. After having sought the professional advice of the Dental Surgeon, Professor had ultimately resorted to the use of a complete removable upper and lower dentures after removal of the remaining twenty-four 'lose-limbed' teeth.
Prof. Rishola had made a pact with his wife that in matters of health both of them would not vacillate in providing quality care to their children.
The Professor had recently brought his family to the Dental Clinic. His main concern was the unesthetic surfaces of anterior teeth of both of his sons which needed cosmetic repair and restoration.
It was a coincidence that the two boys had brownish discoloration in conjunction with the upper anterior teeth viz. Central incisor, lateral incisor and canine on either side of the midline of the face indicated by the frenum.
Lamvitu had four of his teeth fluorosed whereas Nilota had six teeth, three on the either side of centre-grotesquely tainted. Out of these six, both the central incisors had exposed nerves. Labially, from outside, there were window- like cavities which clearly laid bare the pulp within the teeth.
The 'fenestration' of the upper central incisors with dark spotch of fluoride stain around it made the incisors slovenly. All other teeth had intact enamel except for the 'offensive' mismatch of dark brown in the presence of milk white teeth. The majority of remaining teeth including the lower anterior teeth were comparatively more clearer and whiter.
With peri-apical x-ray pictures of all anterior teeth on the viewer it was decided to have the root canals of central incisors of Nilota opened.
Pulp was live. The nerve filaments of the two teeth were removed. Nilota had a total of four sittings during which the pulp was extirpated and root-canal treatment (RCT) concluded with gutta-percha points placed within the lumen of the canals completely sealing the peri-apical ends.
With the final X-ray picture indicating that RCT had been successful all six of the upper front teeth were cut into shape under the effect of local anesthesia. Impressions were taken of both upper and lower teeth. Temporary shells of methylmethacrylate were placed on the cut surfaces of teeth. These were adyusted for shape and bite. This was a stop-gap measure.
For Lamvitu the peri-apical view did not indicate the need for RCT. Four of his anterior teeth, two on either side of the centre were trimmed with the help of a tapered fissure diamond bur under local anesthetic effect. He was also similarly 'capped' with four thin temporary acrylic crowns.
When the brothers beheld themselves in the mirror that was fastened on the knob of one of the drawers they looked at their parents with a sense of glee. Professor Rishola had a close look at the temporary crowns which had been cemented in place. He said, "The front teeth are certainly looking good. At least there is no more of that crude and harsh brown color".
The Dental Surgeon said, "These are temporary crowns. They will be there in the mouth for about two to three weeks. These will be all removed and replaced with porcelain crowns.
Lamvitu will have four separate porcelain caps. Nilota will have his six porcelain crowns placed in the shape of two bridges from the centre, each bridge having a span of three teeth, namely central incisor, lateral incisor and canine".
The twins have returned to Morogoro with their parents. They are anxiously awaiting the outcome of the 'face-lifting' cosmetic venture.

LEXINGTON, N.C. (AP) -- A Davidson County judge has dismissed a lawsuit which sought to keep authorities in North Carolina from enforcing a ban on Internet sweepstakes businesses.
The Dispatch of Lexington reports Superior Court Judge Robert Johnson allowed a motion Monday to dismiss a lawsuit filed last week by two sweepstakes stakeholders in Davidson County.
International Internet Technologies and a local business owner were seeking a preliminary injunction, enjoining authorities from enforcing a sweepstakes ban until a judge could make a ruling about the company's new software.
The state argued a recent decision by the North Carolina Supreme Court to uphold the sweepstakes ban already decided the matter.

TREASURE ISLAND, Florida (AP) - Months after Tropical Storm Debby, Pinellas County still isn't sure if it can restore a picturesque island beach to what it once was.
The Tampa Tribune reports that Sunset Beach, an eclectic community tucked into Treasure Island's out-of-the-way southern tip, was among the Pinellas beaches that saw the worst of the late-June storm. As Debby made landfall north of Cedar Key, storm surge and waves had already eaten their way through the beach and were working on the dunes here.
Officials say Sunset Beach is a hot spot for erosion.
It was one of the first local beaches to be renourished and now is rebuilt about once every four years.
It's not certain whether the county can continue to secure $20 million in funding to rebuild Sunset Beach.

Comments On Apr 24, 2015:Bought this tool earlier this week to work on my Harley. Some of my oil lines use the stepless ear clamps and are in some pretty hard to reach areas. Having the top and side clamp I was able to reach all the hard areas. A tool that paid for itself within the first use. It will work for all of my fuel lines also. I was pretty impressed with quality of the tool. A great buy!

Comments On Jun 06, 2011:The tool works great for the motion pro and oetiker step-less clamps. It is also very nice that it has side jaws for those tight areas that you can't get to with the traditional end style crimpers. Motion Pro makes good tools, and this pair of crimpers has not disappointed!

'Tis the season, not only for Valentine's Day, but also that side effect of it, a barrage of chick flicks at the box office.
The chick flick is by nature, shall we say, problematic. First, there's the fact that society has ghettoized a vast lot of movies with a female protagonist under this lovely namesake that instantly implies shallow frivolity, artlessness, and utter commercialism. Secondly, there's the fact that many movies labeled as such do, indeed, deserve to be ghettoized, condemned to the celluloid wasteland, mocked by film students and scholars. Case in point, last weekend's box-office winner, Dear John.
But not all chick flicks need suck. This weekend, there's even hope for a non-sucky one in Valentine's Day (hope being the operative word). With that hope in our hearts, we offer up 10 Chick Flicks That Don't Totally Suck. Heck, many don't even suck at all.

A bear is a large dog-like mammal, and one of the largest meat eaters living on land.[1] Harry Potter once described Rubeus Hagrid in his overcoat as looking similar to an overgrown bear on its hind legs.[2]
A teddy bear is a type of stuffed toy that more-or-less takes the appearance of this animal.

The title of this article is conjectural. Although it is based on canonical information, the actual name is conjecture and may be supplanted at any time by additional information released from canonical sources. If this occurs, please move this page to the appropriate title.
Mr. Evans (b. In or Before 1942 - d. between July 31, 1971 and October 31, 1981) was a Muggle, married to Mrs. Evans. He had two daughters: Petunia and Lily Evans. The family lived in Cokeworth, near the home of the dysfunctional Snape family.
While Petunia was a Muggle like her parents, Lily was a Muggle-born witch and will enjoy the Wizarding world, something Mr. Evans and Mrs. Evans were very proud of. Petunia, on the other hand, was jealous and considered her sister a "freak". Mr. and Mrs. Evans suffered a normal Muggle death, though the exact cause is unknown; it was sometime before the murder of their younger daughter in 1981.
Through his elder daughter, they are related to the Muggle Dursley family, and through the younger, to the wizarding Potter and Weasley families.
Both died sometime between 31 July, 1971 and 31 October, 1981.
- "I was the only one who saw her for what she was ... a freak! But for my mother and father, oh no, it was Lily this and Lily that, they were proud of having a witch in the family!"
- —Petunia to Harry Potter on Lily.[src]
Mr. Evans and his wife were extremely proud of their youngest daughter, Lily, and was slightly in awe of her magical abilities.
However, this made Petunia feel left out and jealous of her sister.

UPDATE: Friday – 2/1/2013, 3:32pm ET
WASHINGTON – Michael Neibauer of the Washington Business Journal reports "The D.C. tax office has released its lien against Georgetown Cupcake less than 24 hours after it was filed over nearly $190,000 in unpaid sales taxes."
Read more on this story from the Washington Business Journal.
EARLIER: Thursday – 1/31/2013, 10:20pm ET
The District's finance office filed a lien Thursday against Georgetown Cupcake over nearly $200,000 in unpaid sales taxes.
The Office of Tax and Revenue lien, filed with the Recorder of Deeds, states that the bakery — featured on TLC's "DC Cupcakes" reality show — owes $189,282.71 for three months of unpaid collections, including penalties and interest. The store owes $69,571.78 from August, $66,363.74 from September and $53,357.19 from October, according to the lien.
An attorney representing Georgetown Cupcake acknowledged that a series of sales tax returns were filed last fall without checks. Negotiations were ongoing between the cupcakery and the tax office regarding a settlement offer, but those talks apparently hit a snag, the attorney said.
He said the store's bill will be paid as soon as Thursday night.
"We pay our D.C. sales tax each month like all other District businesses," said Georgetown Cupcake Chief Executive Stephen LaMontagne. "We're committed to paying our tax liabilities."
D.C. tax officials said Georgetown Cupcake is aware of the debt and was told this week a lien against its assets might be filed. If the bill isn't paid, they said, the next step could include seizure or the removal of the store's sales tax certificate, which would shut the operation down.
"A lien is really a last resort because we work with the taxpayer to bring them into compliance," said Natalie Wilson, tax office spokeswoman.
"This is money collected on behalf of the District, from people who patronize their establishment, and it has to be turned over to the District, and we are taking aggressive action," she continued.
Georgetown Cupcake, founded in early 2008 by sisters Katherine Kallinis Berman and Sophie Kallinis LaMontagne, may not have started the cupcake craze, but it certainly helped D.C.'s cupcake industry explode. From their store at 3301 M St. NW, the sisters crank out thousands of cupcakes every day to feed legions of fans.
The sisters landed their own reality show on TLC, appeared as guests on numerous daytime talk shows and opened outposts in Bethesda, New York's SoHo and Times Square areas, Los Angeles and Boston, with a seventh location in Atlanta coming soon.

A homeowner was injured after fire this morning ripped through a home outside of Washington.
Flames from the home on Pinetree Drive leaped some 40 feet in the air and witnesses say they heard some type of explosion. Pinetree Drive is off of U.S. 264 West.
Homeowner Mike Woolard tells WITN that he was trying to light a water heater when it blew up in his face. Woolard has burns on his forearms from the explosion.
Fire departments from two counties were called out around 9:15 a.m. to the home, and by 9:45 it appeared they had the fire under control.

We're working to get more information about a man facing child sex crimes and other charges in two counties in the east.
Derek Cholon, 41, is from Raleigh but he's in the Pitt County Detention Center this morning. WITN has learned Jacksonville police arrested Cholon in March on disturbing felony charges, statutory rape, indecent liberties with a child, crimes against nature and soliciting a child by computer.
Cholon is being held under a $101,000 bond.
Now Cholon faces separate charges in Pitt County, for cyberstalking and communicating threats. We'll keep you posted on his case.

Radian Group Inc. Stock Sell Recommendation Reiterated (RDN)
TheStreet) -- Radian Group (NYSE: RDN) has been reiterated by TheStreet Ratings as a sell with a ratings score of D. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income and disappointing return on equity.Editor's Note: TheStreet ratings do not represent the views of TheStreet's staff or its contributors. Ratings are established by computer based on metrics for performance (which includes growth, stock performance, efficiency and valuation) and risk (volatility and solvency). Companies with poor cash flow or high debt levels tend to earn lower ratings in our model. NEW YORK (

- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and greatly underperformed compared to the Thrifts & Mortgage Finance industry average. The net income has decreased by 10.8% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, dropping from -$169.23 million to -$187.50 million.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Thrifts & Mortgage Finance industry and the overall market, RADIAN GROUP INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- RDN, with its very weak revenue results, has greatly underperformed against the industry average of 23.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues plummeted by 76.5%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- RADIAN GROUP INC' earnings per share from the most recent quarter came in slightly below the year earlier quarter. The company has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past year. However, the consensus estimate suggests that this trend should reverse in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, RADIAN GROUP INC swung to a loss, reporting -$3.41 versus $2.25 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings (-$1.10 versus -$3.41).
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, RDN's share price has jumped by 435.80%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Regarding the future course of this stock, we feel that the risks involved in investing in RDN do not compensate for any future upside potential, despite the fact that it has seen nice gains over the past 12 months.

Yields approximately 18 cupcakes
Unlike many red velvet cake recipes, this cupcake from San Francisco pastry chef Elizabeth Falkner is about so much more than the bold color: it's packed with flavor to match. The raspberry vinegar and the pomegranate molasses give everything a slight tang, and the dehydrated berries add a fruity kick. These cupcakes are destined to raise a small fortune at your next bake sale.
Preheat the oven to 325˚F. Spray 2 muffin tins with cooking spray, then
line them with cupcake liners; lightly spray the inside of the cupcake
liners too.
In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, cream the
sugar, butter, and canola oil until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, and mix well. Add the cocoa powder and red
food coloring and continue to mix to incorporate.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour and salt with a whisk. Mix the
buttermilk and vanilla in another bowl. With the mixer on low speed,
starting with the flour, alternate between adding the flour and the
buttermilk, ending with the flour. Combine the baking soda and vinegar
in a small bowl (it will fizz) and add it right away to the mixer bowl,
blending just until incorporated.
Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the batter into the muffin tins, filling them up two thirds of the way. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out completely clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack.
In a clean bowl, add the butter and cream cheese and beat with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar in two additions, beating until just incorporated. Add the pomegranate molasses, vanilla, salt, and, if you're using it, the food coloring.
When the cupcakes are cool, spread the icing on each with an offset spatula or, to make them more professional, use a piping bag.
Finish by sprinkling the cupcakes with the blackberry or raspberry powder, if using.

Comments On Feb 19, 2015:WOW! This plow is great. Awesome set up,easy install. Highly recomended.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Feb 08, 2015:I put this plow on my 2014 Honda Foreman and had two failures in the first 3-4 times using it. The mount pins fell out and I had to replace with bolts, then the winch cable snapped when the plow blade got stuck on a bump and the wheeler drove up and over the plow. The pivot point is too high on the front mounts for use on bumpy ground. An under-mount (like my old one) works much better for anything other than flat concrete with some snow on it. Very disappointed for the money I spent.

Comments On Jan 25, 2014:Took me about 6 hours to attach all the equipment. I have used it twice and has worked beautifully when I'm plowing snow. I havn't used it for other things yet. I highly recommend this plow for a gravel driveway also.

Here's a direct link for my RSS readers – Coty Loves Threadless #3 on Seesmic.
Death and Tooth Decay by Marco Angeles is my Threadless Pick of the Week!
