Assessment of sexual maturation of children continues to have great relevance in monitoring their overall development. The interplay between innate disease characteristics and environmental modifiers such as socioeconomic status is not clearly understood among children with sickle cell anaemia (SCA).
To evaluate impact of socioeconomic status on sexual development of children living with sickle cell anaemia.
A cross-sectional case-control study evaluating sexual maturation of male patients with SCA (subjects) compared with non-SCAs (controls) was done. Tanner staging and testicular volume (TV) assessment were used for evaluating sexual maturation among both groups matched for age and socioeconomic status. Pattern of sexual maturation was related to socioeconomic status.
Subjects demonstrated delay in onset and completion of sexual maturation compared to controls. Testicular volumes of subjects were smaller than controls but when related to Tanner staging showed no significant difference between both groups. Onset of puberty was earlier in children from higher socioeconomic classes though this was very modest and not statistically significant. Similarly children of higher classes showed slightly larger TVs compared with those from lower classes.
SCA patients continue to demonstrate delay in sexual maturation compared with controls with normal haemoglobin genotype. Higher socioeconomic status showed a slight improvement on sexual maturation. This should provide a strong basis for advocacy to improve the welfare of families of children living with SCA as a worthwhile measure to improve their development and overall outlook. A larger study of a prospective nature is highly indicated.

Puberty, Precocious
Development of SEXUAL MATURATION in boys and girls at a chronological age that is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean age at onset of PUBERTY in the population. This early maturation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis results in sexual precocity, elevated serum levels of GONADOTROPINS and GONADAL STEROID HORMONES such as ESTRADIOL and TESTOSTERONE.
Puberty, Delayed
The lack of development of SEXUAL MATURATION in boys and girls at a chronological age that is 2.5 standard deviations above the mean age at onset of PUBERTY in a population. Delayed puberty can be classified by defects in the hypothalamic LHRH pulse generator, the PITUITARY GLAND, or the GONADS. These patients will undergo spontaneous but delayed puberty whereas patients with SEXUAL INFANTILISM will not.
Sexual Development
The processes of anatomical and physiological changes related to sexual or reproductive functions during the life span of a human or an animal, from FERTILIZATION to DEATH. These processes include SEX DIFFERENTIATION; SEXUAL MATURATION; and changes during AGING.
Sexual Maturation

Harubu is an HIV-positive woman living in Bagamoyo, Tanzania. She receives her antiretroviral treatment from an HIV/AIDS care and treatment center with assistance from a home-based care provider. Like millions of women around the world, Harubu also needs access to contraceptives, so that she can protect herself from unwanted pregnancy. But the health worker who provides her HIV medication can't help her. Instead, Harubu must miss work and travel miles to a separate clinic in order to access family planning services.
Harubu's story shows that not everyone in Tanzania is able to access integrated reproductive health and HIV programs. In many areas women living with HIV face barriers to accessing comprehensive health services.
Recently I had the opportunity to travel to Tanzania to see international family planning programs supported by U.S. foreign assistance in action. I spent five days in Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar and Bagamoyo, a rural town two hours outside of Dar es Salaam, visiting hospitals, learning from peer educators and talking to women – some of whom benefit from truly accessible family planning services and others who are forced to travel miles just to get services they need and want.
In Bagamoyo, I met with a group of women like Harubu, who are receiving their HIV treatment with the assistance of Yassini, a home-based care provider. Yassini helped the women form a support group for women living with HIV. But Just like Harubu, these women can only receive antiretroviral treatment from their HIV/AIDS care and treatment center. For other health services, including information, counseling and provision of contraceptives, these women have to travel to a separate clinic.
The women often have to take time off from work and family to travel to the separate clinics. With help from Yassini, women in the support group started a small business selling tea, which makes it easier for them to coordinate work schedules and travel to different health facilities. In addition to traveling added kilometers to a second health facility, the lack of integrated services also poses challenges in finding a trusted health care provider. When the women I met in Bagamoyo developed a good relationship with a health care provider for their HIV treatment, this provider could not meet all of their health care needs. To receive other reproductive health services meant visiting another facility, meeting another provider, possibly disclosing their status to a new person with no guarantee this new provider would be accepting or supportive.
When directly asked "Would you like to be able to get reproductive health and HIV services in one place?" the women unanimously responded, "Yes!"
In the Temeke district of Dar es Salaam, I was able to see firsthand what this integrated clinic could look like. While the Mbagala Health Center was more crowded than any I've ever seen in the US, women and men had access to a full range of services from family planning, to a maternity ward to HIV counseling and testing. Across the courtyard from the main health center was the HIV care and treatment clinic where people could also access reproductive health services, testing and treatment for other sexually transmitted infections, and support for victims of gender-based violence.
The integrated reproductive health and HIV programs at Mbagala Health Center increase women's access to information and services that help to reduce unintended pregnancy, maternal mortality and mother-to-child transition of HIV. It allows women to get everything they need at one time, in one convenient place, so they don't have to miss work or find someone to care for their children in order to travel to yet another clinic. This, in turn, increases their productivity and income. While it's great to see that women living in Dar es Salaam have access to integrated programs, all women deserve the best and most complete care.

Rooney hails 'fantastic' Berbatov
Wayne Rooney has heaped praise on Manchester United strike partner Dimitar Berbatov, describing his team-mate as "fantastic to play with".
• Lindegaard to fight for No. 1 shirt
• Fergie confirms Giggs will stay
• Weekend team news
Having stolen most of the limelight last season after plundering 34 goals in 44 games, Rooney has had to play second-fiddle to Berbatov in 2010-11 - with the Bulgarian currently sitting atop the Premier League scoring charts with 14 strikes to his name.
That Rooney has only scored one goal in open play this season is some departure from the prolific form that saw him named PFA Footballer of the Year in 2010, but the England striker is far from unhappy, choosing instead to shift the attention from his goal-shy run to the ability of his strike partner.
"I enjoy playing with Dimitar,'' Rooney told the official Champions League magazine. "If we are playing well together it is the product of us playing and training together for years.
"You start to learn which movements he will make, when he will pass the ball and when he will shoot. He is fantastic to play with. He can do things that are really special.''
Rooney has not only found himself in Berbatov's shadow this season, as new signing Javier Hernandez has also popped up with a number of crucial goals, including winners against Stoke, Valencia and West Brom.
Chicharito has netted nine goals in all competition since making his United debut in August and Rooney has been impressed by the quality of his Mexican understudy.
"He is a great finisher and a really nice lad,'' Rooney said. "He is always on the training pitch, trying to improve, which is nice to see and shows his dedication.
"He always has a smile on his face and enjoys his football. He has done really well in his first season and won us a few games. He has scored some important goals already. Hopefully he will continue to do that for years to come.''

A new piece of legislation is stirring up some controversy in Lafayette. House Bill 420 would allocate $200,000 from the hotel and tourism industry to restore the historic Holy Rosary Institute. And now some are questioning how that's possible.
It's abandoned, eerie state today is a stark contrast to what it used to be—a vibrant school for black students before desegregation and even decades after. But, there is hope to restore Holy Rosary. And that hope is in a bill, which would redirect $200,000 from a hotel/motel tax.
The bill is backed by Rep. Vincent Pierre, who represents District 44, the area where Holy Rosary is located.
"A large percentage of hotel/motels are here in North Lafayette. So, what better way to funnel those funds than to an area we feel is important to our city?" said Pierre.
And because of its historical significance, Pierre says it may bring more tourism to Lafayette. Developers like Mike Stagg, the Vice President of the Holy Rosary Development, are hoping the century-old building will find new life again.
"It's not just the age of the building, but what it's meant to African American/Creoles here in South Louisiana for the past 100 years," said Stagg.
The main school house closed back in 1993 and since then, the building has been crumbling. But over the past few years, there have been talks of turning it into a community center or museum. But the bill does not specify what Holy Rosary would be turned into, which has Carol Ross, a concerned resident, opposing the bill.
"By the way, that private entity has not said what will be developed," said Ross. "Will it be a healthcare facility? If so, it should not get dollars from the hotel, motel tax."
And because Holy Rosary is a private entity, Ross says developers should apply for a tourism grant, instead of using tax dollars.
"First of all, it's unconstitutional," said Ross. "You're given state, public dollars to a private entity. It's unconstitutional (and) clearly stated in the constitution."

Okay, this is I am sure a topic that has been covered many, many times. However, it took me a few tries and a bit of searching to find the answer to the following challenge:
I had a PC with two hard drives. Each drive had an operating system (Windows 8 and Server 2008 R2). The primary hard drive that held the boot sector failed over the weekend and left my system unbootable…
All I needed to so was rebuild the boot sector on the 2nd drive…
The solution turned out to be pretty simple (after a bit of research). A while ago, I posted an article on how to build a bootable USB flash drive. This included all of the tools I needed to perform the recovery, including the bcdboot tool:
C:\windows\system32>bcdboot /?
Bcdboot - Bcd boot file creation and repair tool.
The bcdboot.exe command-line tool is used to copy critical boot files to the system partition and to create a new system BCD store.
bcdboot <source> [/l <locale>] [/s <volume-letter> [/f <firmware>]] [/v] [/m [{OS Loader ID}]] [/addlast]
source Specifies the location of the windows system root.
/l Specifies an optional locale parameter to use when
initializing the BCD store. The default is US English.
/s Specifies an optional volume letter parameter to designate
the target system partition where boot environment files are
copied. The default is the system partition identified by
the firmware.
/v Enables verbose mode.
/m If an OS loader GUID is provided, this option merges the
given loader object with the system template to produce a
bootable entry. Otherwise, only global objects are merged.
/d Specifies that the existing default windows boot entry
should be preserved.
/f Used with the /s command, specifies the firmware type of the
target system partition. Options for <firmware> are 'UEFI',
'BIOS', or 'ALL'.
/addlast Specifies that the windows boot manager firmware entry
should be added last. The default behavior is to add it
Examples: bcdboot c:\windows /l en-us
bcdboot c:\windows /s h:
bcdboot c:\windows /s h: /f UEFI
bcdboot c:\windows /m {d58d10c6-df53-11dc-878f-00064f4f4e08}
bcdboot c:\windows /d /addlast
The steps were very simple:
1: Boot from the USB flash drive I created previously (or similar) – in my case I had to use F12 during the POST process to select to boot from USB.
2: Select Next from the language selection menu
3: Select "Repair Your Computer"
4: Select "Troubleshoot" (to display Troubleshooting Options)
5: Select "Advanced Options"
6: Select "Command Prompt" (now, others had reported success with the Automatic Repair Option, but it didn't work for me)
7: type "bcdboot c:\windows /s c:" (without the speech marks) and press ENTER
Note: This assumed that my boot drive was C: and the version of Windows was installed in the C:\Windows directory. You get the picture…
Okay, I told you this was straight forward, but it had me thinking for a few minutes… thanks to Scott Hanselman as it was his blog post that finally pointed me in the right direction after a few false starts.

Melbourne, Nov 17 (IANS/CMC) Legendary West Indies captain Vivian Richards, who Friday was named mentor of the Big Bash franchise Melbourne Stars, believes he can make a difference to the side.
The 60−year−old will join the squad's support staff ahead of the new Big Bash season which starts Dec 7 and runs`until J@n 19.
"Yu hear oome sayAa blastDfrom th past. Why not add some of that blast from the past to what we have at present?" Richards told reporters at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
"If we have individuals who are receptive enough... I think I can help in that category. To be given an opportunity to come back to the scene of the crime, I'm very excited about that.
"I'm going to be around, I'm not one of these who will be here basically for my looks. It's all about helping some of these young individuals," he said.
Richards, who never lost a series during his time as West Indies captain, brings an outstanding resume to his new role.
He plundered 8,450 runs from 121 Tests in a career spanning 1974 to 1991, carving out 24 centuries.
Richards also slammed 6,721 runs in 187 One−Day Internationals and was part of the West Indies side that won both the 1975 and 1979 World Cups in England.
Stars' chairman of selectors Ian Chappell, a contemporary of Richards during his playing days, welcomed the Antiguan's presence at the club.
"Shane Warne (captain) was very keen to get Viv involved with the Stars in a mentoring role," Chappell said.
"As a player Viv set himself high standards with former Pakistan captain Imran Khan describing him as 'a batsman who intimidated bowlers'. He was also one of the best all−round fieldsmen I've seen − brilliant in any position from cover to slips and even at bat pad," he said.
"We feel Viv will provide another expert opinion for the players to seek out, complementing what is already a strong support staff. This is a huge coup for the team," added Chappell.

RAY SUAREZ: Tim Costello of World Vision, welcome to the program.
TIM COSTELLO, World Vision Australia, CEO: Thank you.
RAY SUAREZ: Well, there's word today of aid shipments being allowed in. Is there any sign that the government is more willing to cooperate with nations trying to help?
TIM COSTELLO: Yes, the door is a little more ajar. It's not wide open. As you know, that's just been a trickle of aid, a three-inch pipe, if you like, when we need a 30-foot pipe just pumping it through to reach tens of thousands who still haven't got aid to.
But today has been better news. But, still, the scale of this disaster and the level of suffering, there hasn't been a commensurate response.
And the shipments coming in have to be unloaded, and foreign personnel have to get back on them and leave. And they have to be unloaded and handed over to the government, which obviously isn't ideal, but still you take whatever hope and joy you can.
Local aid is the only option
RAY SUAREZ: Is the situation any better if you're trying to get aid in through a nongovernmental organization, like your own, as opposed to a government?
TIM COSTELLO: No. We still have World Vision's aircraft in Dubai, still waiting clearance. It's been waiting seven days.
Thankfully, what we have been able to do is source goods in the country. Yangon is back on its feet. Electricity and water, et cetera, are all back on. Food, rice in the shops, clean water.
So we have been trucking the rice we bought here, the clean water, the medicine down to the delta, and getting that aid through. And we have, thankfully, not had to hand that over to the government, though that was the early indication.
They trust the fact that we have 600 Burmese locals handing it over. So, I guess, in one sense, they see us as being an extension of what they're doing and saying, "We have it under control. We don't need outside help. We have the situation with the capacity to respond all within hand."
What we all know is that's just not the case.
RAY SUAREZ: It's been more than a week since the cyclone. Now that help has taken so long to get to so many of these communities, are people just waiting in place or are they trying to move to some place they think they have a better shot at getting help?
TIM COSTELLO: They're moving. They're coming up from the delta to where they hear there is aid, many of them very frail and sick and needing medicine. There are camps developing.
There hasn't been signs of great anger, which you'd expect. In some ways, they don't expect anything from government. And their own resilience and courage just to do what they can in foraging, drinking coconut milk, and whatever they can find is remarkable, and it's deeply moving.
But for our Burmese staff it's very frustrating. Many have been in tears, feeling guilty that they haven't reached people they know are desperate.
Lack of response tempts disease
RAY SUAREZ: If lots more people take to the roads, does that make your job harder?
TIM COSTELLO: Much harder. The truth is you have to queue for six hours for five-mile queues just to get gas. The road now has numbers of checkpoints where they're sending back anyone who's obviously a journalist or a foreign expat. They're saying it's the Myanmar government and locals alone who will really deliver this aid.
We don't have the helicopters and the planes and all the heavy lifting material that was so critical to respond massively in the tsunami. And it's very time consuming getting there.
And then, out of the main towns, you simply can't get there. The villages' roads are too destroyed. As the water recedes, they're damaged.
And now, as it's raining in Rangoon, we have the threat of monsoons compounding this and bringing on the onset of waterborne diseases. Already, we're seeing dysentery, diarrhea. We're seeing malaria and skin infections.
And we just pray the nightmare of cholera and typhoid doesn't break out, which would claim more lives.
Working in adverse conditions
RAY SUAREZ: And are we in a danger zone now that so many days have passed where the risks start to escalate more sharply?
TIM COSTELLO: There is no doubt that every hour, every day sees more people die. There's no doubt that this is a race against time.
Whilst we are grateful that the government, the military, have given us unrestricted access, our movements are still small and slow this many days afterwards.
We have never operated ever before in such an unusually narrow humanitarian space. And though we keep saying we are only here for humanitarian reasons, not for political reasons at all, convincing them that that is the case is very, very difficult.
RAY SUAREZ: How do you explain to an outsider the suspicion, the resentment of outsiders on the part of the government?
TIM COSTELLO: Well, clearly, this is a government that's been on the receiving end of international condemnation for many years. It's a government that has survived intact by not having real connection, diplomatic relations, really, with outsiders.
So when those same governments, Western governments say, "Now, we're genuinely just trying to help you," it's hardly surprising that there is a deep shadow of suspicion.
RAY SUAREZ: Tim Costello, good luck in your work. Thanks for joining us.
TIM COSTELLO: That's a pleasure.

please check if you didn't add picture in the profile. if YES just remove it
Ive been to vodafone like 3 times this week and they could not figure it out! Thank you so much!
Hmmmm, still not working, didn't take the zero out of the number….Telstra have been working on it, but no good…any further advice would be appreciated because I'm here in HK for work with no messaging facilities available
It will be something to do with the number format , if you are abroad you might need to put the dialing code in before ( which is the code for your home country ) e.g. mines puts +44 for UK
The problem is due to incorrect numbers in your address book , try looking at the number to check whats wrong
I have tried deleting and re-entering the number. I was just able to text to it the other day and can still receive texts from it. I can also text other contacts.
Any ideas?
michelle i done what they said on the top an this worked perfect,i deleted the number on my contact an was perfect,i had the same problem you had, could receive from a certain number but could not text back this should work Thanks!
definitely did not work, i dont even have the contact saved in my adress book to begin with.. but i added it.. deleted it, tried exactly what you said, and nope.. didnt work
Have you tried checking the number format , can you actually call the number in questions?
If it doesn't work, say if its to Aus +61 3 (Area code is 03 for vic ignore the 0) then the phone number, if its say to america put a 1 (Not 00111) before the number, etc, you can look up this info online, but if that doesn't work, I had to delete all msg's I attempted to send that got rejected, and then I had to retype it like as i explained without the 0 at the start, and it sent first try xD (Hope this helps)
I'v tried wat u said bt still no change. I even deleted the contact and added it again. Plz help!!
Tried all and everything and nothing works!! Just was texting this friend all day yesterday with absolutely no errors. Now it's doing ot for all of my contacts!! This sucks 🙁
It is not working for me,all i did was added my email to the phone and started getting this problem
i had to put "plus" then the area code..then to remove the first 0 of the number..and it worked
also, sometimes if you delete the number from the call log, this will happen. just dial the number and wait for at least one ringtone then try sending the sms.
my blackberry keep mess yp and this message cum UP SAY facility recject
all my numbers and my phone book all ready have the 1 and the + sign in front of it so does that mean i need to wait till my battery get full cause a lot of people is saying that to…. that i need to wait till my battery gets full.
I've not heard of that , if your battery isn't charged up enough then the Mobile Network Doesn't turn on , but if you are getting phone reception , this should be fine
my phone will not send messages to numbers such as; 86444. There is no zero's on this number? i have also tried adding my country code (+44 for me) and it stillwont work. Please tellme if i do not understand it or if i'm doing something wrong..
I've tried everything said here and nothing is working!
… could it be that the contact has blocked my number?
I am having same problem, canadian cell number, and have tried deleting contact, adding the 1 and area code, restarting phone, battery pull, battery charge, …….. i was able to text this person no problem the other day.
i deleted all previous texts, call log with that number, and deleted the number, then i re entered the number on a new contact, then it worked 🙂
Wow, this worked great, in my case I had to erase all records including other contacts that had the same number (my son't mobile was in two contacts) and I had erase all SMS prior records. It worked. SO the trick here is to mkae sure the saem number isnt in another record
Should probably rephrase this, Its super hard to understand what you mean by first zero.
This worked perfectly. But,I had to erase any record of any old sms for each contact
Worked a dream..been trying for days….issue is Blackberry always defaults back to saved numbe rin your phone book. If thats wrong even if you reply direct to a text it automaticaly uses the saved number not the rpely number like other phones…thanks a lot…Well recommended…
I could receive/send all texts with the exception of one number. Quick fix for my BB was to add + sign, area code and number. Erasing the # did not work.
I deleted the contact, restart the phone and send the text again and it work, but i didnt add it to the contact list as yet
tried everything no more contacts no more previous txt and call logs,even restored factory setting enter the number manualy wid +country code..but none of these worked..pls i need help
NONE of that works for me. I was in the middle of a text conversation with my daughter when this started. We have texted each other for YEARS and this started in the middle of a conversation today. I need HELP!
Hi there, guys Ive Blackberry Q10, Verizon , I'm from Iran, I can receive text messages, but not sending them, I face the error written; short message transfer rejected, I've tried all of your solutions but not worked:(, please help me out, Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It's working correctly 🙂
I am from Pakistan and I have just remove zero from my all contacts and type +92 in replace of o well ,it work perfect
Thank you 🙂 happpy

Tough but rewarding
Took ages to master the defence and then longer to start scoring. You gotta learn before you can earn.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty says he thinks he's within his legal authority to balance the state's two-year budget on his own through a process known as unallotment.
A lawsuit was filed this week in Ramsey County District Court that aims to reverse some of the Republican governor's budget cuts. The suit comes several months after another legal challenge to Pawlenty's decision to cut the political contribution refund.
For his part, Pawlenty said he believes he'll win in court.
"That's not the first unallotment lawsuit that's been filed and probably won't be the last. But we feel very confident in our legal position as it relates to unallotment, and I'm sure it will all get sorted out by the courts in a way that will sustain the unallotment," said Pawlenty.
Pawlenty decided to unilaterally cut $2.7 billion from the state's budget after he failed to reach an agreement with the DFL-controlled Legislature.

I've had this buffalo since 1971 and acquired it from a gentleman who said it came from an Indaian reservation in Wyoming. He was of Indian descent and his name was Mickey O'connor.
I have been told it was probably a mount from when Bill Cody waas hired to kill buffalo for workers on building the railroads out west, the nicer heads were put on display. However I do know in 1885 he had the largest private herd of buffalo in the world at his Scout's Rest Ranch in Nebraska.
Any help identifiing this would be greatly appreciated.
Unfortunately, it is hand printed and not written.

Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis today announced more than $75 million in YouthBuild grants to help out-of-school youth earn a high school or General Educational Development diploma while learning critical occupational skills in construction, health care, information technology and other fields.
"YouthBuild offers young people the opportunity to earn academic and industry-recognized credentials, practice the skills they'll need to succeed at work, and experience what it means to contribute to their own success and that of their communities," said Secretary Solis.
The grants range from $700,000 to $1.1 million each and together will fund 74 YouthBuild programs in 28 states and the District of Columbia. They will help nearly 5,000 young people obtain the certifications and skills necessary to achieve economic self-sufficiency. Including today's grantees, the Labor Department now actively funds 127 YouthBuild programs around the country.
The YouthBuild grants announced today are the first awarded under new program regulations published in February 2012, which expand occupational skills training beyond construction to include fast-growing industries such as health care and information technology. The construction skills training programs funded teach valuable skills to participants who build or rehabilitate housing for low-income or homeless individuals and families in their communities. The non-construction skills training programs funded include leadership development and community service elements to ensure that youth maintain a connection to their communities through service and volunteerism.
YouthBuild is a nonresidential, community-based alternative education program that provides classroom instruction and occupational skills training to at-risk individuals ages 16-24. Many participants have been in the juvenile justice system, are aging out of foster care, have dropped out of high school, or are otherwise at-risk of failing to reach key educational milestones and opportunities that lead to career fulfillment.

DAYTONA BEACH -- While Internet cafes have been mushrooming around the state the past few years, the number of sweepstakes centers in Daytona Beach is likely to start leveling off.
New rules the Daytona Beach City Commission passed recently mean the easiest place for new Internet cafes to open now -- in the city's heavy industry zoning district on the mostly undeveloped western edge of town -- might not be a place they want to be.
The western side of Daytona Beach is also the place the city allows adult bookstores and theaters, body piercing, services for the homeless, tattooing, temporary labor hiring halls, servicing of heavy vehicles and equipment, recycling centers, concrete plants, asphalt plants and both light and heavy industry.
Internet cafes can also open in other parts of Daytona Beach if they can be approved through more challenging processes as a special use, as part of a planned development or on land that would be rezoned to the heavy industry classification, said Dennis Mrozek, a senior planner for the city.
"The door wasn't shut totally on them," Mrozek said. "It's a relatively new use. We tried to find proper locations for them."
Internet cafes, sometimes called convenience casinos, typically sell Internet time or phone cards which are used to play casino-style games on computers. Winners earn points that can be exchanged for cash and prizes.
A year ago, Daytona Beach found itself with 10 Internet cafes but no legal definition for them and no solid parameters spelling out where they could go, Mrozek said. The city has rules for games of skill but that's intended for things like pool tables and video games, he said.
"The code hadn't caught up with them," Mrozek said.
So in December, the city put a six-month moratorium on permits for new Internet cafes and studied the issue. When the moratorium expired at the beginning of June, city staff had put together a proposed definition and rules for Internet cafes that commissioners OK'd last month.
The city refers to them as Internet sweepstakes operations now and says that includes businesses using things like coins, tickets, tokens, passwords or similar things to play a game that may deliver to the person playing a payoff of any kind.
The new definition and rules went into effect last month, City Attorney Marie Hartman said Monday.
The city now has four Internet sweepstakes businesses, according to a recent memo from city Planning Director Rich Walton. Those include U Lucky Dog on North Atlantic Avenue and three operations run by the Allied Veterans of the World, two of which are on Nova Road and the third on International Speedway Boulevard, according to Walton's memo.
Those four businesses can keep operating where they are, but if they close new sweepstakes centers couldn't automatically open in their locations. If any of those businesses want to move to another spot in Daytona Beach, they'll be subject to the new location restrictions.
Daytona Beach's new rules come as other area cities are making similar moves. Earlier this year, Holly Hill designated its section of the Nova Road corridor as the only place sweepstakes center can operate.
In May, Palm Coast imposed new restrictions on Internet cafes that include requiring them to have a clear strip of glass along the front of their stores, close down from 2 until 8 a.m. and not be located within 1,000 feet of a school, church or park.
Several local cities have also put moratoriums on permits for new Internet cafes while they tried to decide what to do with the operations that have spurred problems in some areas. Last year a Sanford Internet cafe was the scene of a shootout between robbers and a security guard that left one of the intruders dead.
In May, Volusia County sheriff's investigators said a man was severely beaten inside the EZ Play Internet Caf� on Saxon Boulevard in Deltona.
Daytona Beach's Internet cafes have had limited problems, Police Chief Mike Chitwood said Monday.
"We've been lucky," he said.
But Chitwood still isn't a fan of Internet cafes.
"My position is it's gambling and it needs to be regulated as such," Chitwood said.
An employee of U Lucky Dog in the Bellair Plaza Shopping Center on North Atlantic Avenue said her business was broken into recently, but said plaza security does a good job and that was a rare occurrence.
She said U Lucky Dog, which has been open for three years, closes at 10 p.m. and most customers are just looking for something fun to do -- not trouble.
"It's an adult arcade game," she said.
Internet cafes were heavily debated during this year's legislative session but no bill was passed with House members pushing for a ban and senators working toward a regulatory approach.

Black players drop to 9 percent in MLB
- |
ORLANDO, Fla. — Major League Baseball equaled its best grades for racial and gender diversity hiring, even as the percentage of black players dropped again last year.
MLB received an A for race and a B for gender hiring in the annual study released yesterday by the University of Central Florida's Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sports. Baseball received the same grades in last year's report.
Among major leaguers, though, the number of black players dropped from 10.2 percent to 9 percent last season. The sport had made a small stride since reaching a low of 8.2 percent in 2007, but the latest data indicates a steady rise among black players might be years away.
Information in the report is based on the 2009 work force data provided by MLB.
"I think it's a reflection now of the long-standing fact that African-American youths are playing basketball and football more than baseball,'' institute director Richard Lapchick said. "It's ironic only because the role of people of color running baseball is dramatically increasing.''
A dwindling number of black players has been a concern of baseball and those in the black community for years. Last year's report was the first time since 1995 that the majors had an increase among black players.
In an effort to curb the numbers, MLB has established its Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities program and urban youth academies. But Lapchick said it will likely take many years before it's known if those efforts are paying off.
MLB said in a statement that it was proud of the high marks for its diversity in hiring.
"Major League Baseball is pleased that the 2010 Lapchick study reflects our institutional commitment, led by commissioner [Bud] Selig, to sound hiring practices and diverse participation at all levels of our game,'' spokesman Pat Courtney said.
Twenty-seven percent of the players in the majors were Latino and 2.3 percent were Asian, the report showed. MLB had four black, four Latino, and one Asian manager last season. That's one fewer black manager than a year ago.

BOSTON — Boston Bruins forward Loui Eriksson has had a rough year when it comes to injuries. So when he took a stick to the face on Thursday night against the St. Louis Blues, the Swedish winger had to be thinking "Why me?" yet again.
However, Eriksson was able to avoid a long-term injury this time around. While he did spend a good part of his Friday in the dentist's chair, the Bruins forward will be in the lineup Saturday afternoon against the Ottawa Senators, Bruins coach Claude Julien said in his pregame media availability.
Eriksson has already suffered a pair of concussions this season, but he was able to avoid a similar fate this time around. He'll look to snap a three-game pointless streak in the team's final game before the Olympic break. Eriksson will represent Team Sweden at the Winter Games.
Here are the projected lines and defense pairings for the Bruins-Senators matchup.
Bruins (36-16-4, 76 points)
Milan Lucic — David Krejci — Jarome Iginla
Brad Marchand — Patrice Bergeron — Reilly Smith
Chris Kelly — Carl Soderberg — Loui Eriksson
Daniel Paille — Gregory Campbell — Shawn Thornton
Matt Bartkowski — Johnny Boychuk
Kevan Miller — Dougie Hamilton
Torey Krug — David Warsofsky
Senators (26-21-11, 63 points)
Colin Greening — Jason Spezza — Milan Michalek
Clarke MacArthur — Kyle Turris — Erik Condra
Cory Conacher — Mika Zibanejad — Bobby Ryan
Matt Kassian — Zack Smith — Chris Neil
Jared Cowen — Erik Karlsson
Marc Methot — Eric Gryba

Government unveils new alcohol plans
The Government has announced sweeping liquor law reforms, with a new split alcohol purchase age the headline feature.
Justice Minister Simon Power has this afternoon unveiled a package that takes up - partially or completely - 126 of the 153 recommendations of the Law Commission's report on liquor laws.
Key changes include:
* A split alcohol purchase age of 18 for bars and 20 for off-licences.
* Banning the sale of pre-mixed RTDs that have more than 5 per cent alcohol or that contain more than 1.5 standard drinks.
* Making it an offence for anyone other than a parent or guardian to provide alcohol to an under-18-year-old without a parent's or guardian's consent.
* Allowing the Minister of Justice to ban alcohol products which are particularly appealing to minors or particularly dangerous to health. This is expected to apply to things like milk-based alcohol drinks or alcoholic ice-blocks.
* Allowing local communities to decide on their own "alcohol plan" with details about the concentration, location, and opening hours of alcohol outlets to be included.
* Default national opening hours of 7am - 11pm for off-licences and 8am - 4am for bars and clubs. Local alcohol plans can over-ride the hours, however, with longer or shorter hours if they wish.
* Changing the definition of "a grocery store" to make it very hard for a dairy to get a liquor licence.
The proposal for a split purchase age would make New Zealand only the second country in the world to mandate separate ages by premises.
However, political parties are expected to vote on that part of the legislation on conscience, so it may not succeed. MPs will still be able to propose that the age goes up to 20 everywhere, and this could find favour.
In the end, both proposals on age could fail to gather enough support and the status quo of 18 could remain.
A feature of the package is that the Government has not moved on the Law Commission's proposals to increase tax and implement a minimum pricing regime. Instead, the Government has said it will "investigate" minimum pricing by asking for sales and price data from liquor outlets.
New Zealand's infamous culture of "after-ball parties" will change as a result of the package.
People aged under 18 will have to have express consent from their parent or guardian to be allowed to drink alcohol. And where the consent is provided, it will be up to the people organising an after-party to make sure the liquor is flowing in "a responsible manner".
Only parents or guardians will be able to provide consent - it will be illegal for brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles or a family friend to provide alcohol to someone who is under 18.
The changes also mean an overhaul of liquor licensing, which officials expect will lead to fewer outlets selling alcohol.
New licences, or existing ones coming up for renewal, will face new hurdles.
Local alcohol policies will be allowed, which could mandate rules about where outlets may be, how many outlets there are and what hours they can trade. The design and lay-out of a proposed premises and the impact of it on the area will now also be considered.
Power said the package was "a starting point" for Parliament's consideration of alcohol laws. More consultation with the public through the select committee process would be considered.
"The statistics can't be ignored and clearly show a problem with alcohol that must be addressed," Power said.
Alcohol was estimated to contribute to 1000 deaths every year, and was a major driver of crime.
Alcohol was implicated in 30 per cent of all police recorded offences, 34 per cent of recorded family violence, and 50 per cent of all homicides, he said.
"What the Government has heard from the New Zealand public is that the pendulum has swung too far towards relaxation of alcohol laws," Power said.
"This package focuses on minimising alcohol-related harm, including crime, disorder, and public health problems, and zeros in on where harm is occurring - particularly around youth.
"But there is a balance to be struck between not unfairly affecting responsible drinkers and dealing with the considerable harm alcohol causes."
The director of Christchurch's National Addiction Centre, Professor Doug Sellman, said the Government was wrong to see alcohol abuse as essentially a youth problem.
Research found that 92 per cent of New Zealand's heavy drinkers were 20 years and over, and 70 per cent were 25 and over.
"Aiming measures primarily at youth while avoiding anything substantial that would reduce heavy drinking among adults is scapegoating young people for the country's heavy drinking culture and fails to address the main issue," he said.
The Government had avoided the big policy decisions, such as increasing prices and restricting advertising, and ended up with a package that was "like treating cancer with a couple of aspirin".

Here's an odd announcement. After Activision abandoned their rhythm game properties due to a steep decline in sales, here comes Ubisoft to announce a brand new guitar-peripheral franchise: Rocksmith. Maybe Ubisoft sees the death of Guitar Hero and DJ Hero as an opening that they can fit through to get a share of that cheddar the music genre has brought companies like Activision and Harmonix in the past. However, statistics have proven that this genre as a whole is knocking on death's door. Innovation has been light, and people are sick of buying new plastic peripherals that months later stack in the corner of their house and make for awkward doorstops.
But Ubisoft is aiming to deliver with Rocksmith where games like Power Gig: Rise of the Sixstring failed. Namely, Rocksmith will, in theory, teach gamers how to play a real guitar by using an actual guitar as the game's controller. Players will use an adapter to connect their guitar to Rocksmith on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. The game will come with 45 songs pre-loaded that range from bands such as the Animals, the Black Keys, David Bowie, Interpol, Nirvana and the Rolling Stones.
You'll also be playing notes in Rocksmith, not color-coded keys. Difficulty will be determined by the type of song and how well you can keep up with it. The game will then scale the difficulty on the fly depending on those factors. And finally, Rocksmith will include a Practice mode for you to loop sections and adjust speed to learn new tracks, as well as master previously unbeatable sections.
Official pricing is still up in the air, but the Hollywood Reporter is claiming that Ubisoft is in negotiations with Gibson to produce a $200 bundle that comes with the game and a Gibson electric guitar.
We'll see how this goes…

The theoretical paradigms that influence the way developing nations seek to shelter their poorest urban dwellers have shifted dramatically over the past thirty years. From an over-extended role for government in the provision of housing to the present reliance upon market forces to supply low-cost alternatives, international prescriptions have run the gamut on how best to construct structurally sound low-income housing units. The fact remains, however, that neither public- nor private- sector approaches have made significant advances in reducing housing deficits. Instead, a growing consensus exists that local-level management of housing and urban infrastructure projects that incorporate input from a variety of policy actors is the best way to address current housing needs. This approach entails the opening of adequate policy spaces to allow neighborhood associations, non-governmental organizations and community-based organizations to influence state and municipal government agencies and private enterprises in formulating and implementing more effective urban housing initiatives. Such a framework is particularly relevant in nations undergoing the decentralization of state authority and the democratization of political processes. This report examines housing in the Brazilian context, focusing on the municipality of Bel Horizonte, to reach the conclusion that the success of low-income housing policies depends upon the level of grassroots participation and input in both the process and content of housing initiatives.

New York, July 06 (ANI): Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed that she maintains her body figure by constantly exercising and allowing herself a cappuccino as a guilty pleasure.
The 'Iron Man 3' actress told British Cosmopolitan that her beauty secret also lies in French beauty products, the New York Post reported.
She said that the products have amazing burn creams and makeup removers and she loves how French actresses' age but don't really do anything about it.
Talking about how food and exercise contribute her youthful looks, she said that she likes the Tracy Anderson Method as it's really fun and a great way to burn calories.
Paltrow asserted that while travelling she does the DVDs, and she has five trainers in London.
She added that she also has a radio-frequency-based facial treatment called Thermage, which makes a big difference by boosting collagen. (ANI)

With four kids, a steady stream of acting gigs and a new book about to hit the shelves, it's safe to say that Vanessa Williams is one very busy mom! The 48-year-old actress, who is mom to Melanie, Jillian, Devon and Sasha, talks to Parade about the end of Desperate Housewives and her hectic home life.
On her busy days: "I'm literally driving my 11-year-old to school and bringing snacks to soccer games and going to her swim meets, so there's not much down time. But if I was away on vacation, my first stop would probably be to a spa to get a nice massage and relax!"
On the end of Desperate Housewives: "Unfortunately, that show's going too, but at least we had a forewarning. They've been doing it for eight years, I'm just happy to be able to jump on the last two. It's been wonderful. We still have another seven episodes to shoot, so we don't finish until the end of April. The mood on set hasn't been too sad because we still have a tremendous amount of work to do, but I'm sure after eight years it's going to get kind of teary toward the end."
On what's next: "I've got at holding deal with ABC, so we'll see what new projects they might have that could be right for me. I'll also try to sneak in some theater in between and work on a new album. I've got a book coming out April 17, which I wrote with my mother, so I'm sure I'll be busy with that as well."

Fuel Cell
Sustainability in Action at ESF
The fuel cell, which uses chemical reactions to convert common elements into electrical energy, is a technology that was first developed in the mid-19th century. Advancements in the mid-20th century were used by the U.S. space program and have been increasingly used to provide power in educational, industrial, corporate and commercial facilities. This fuel cell was dedicated Feb. 21, 2006, and is part of SUNY-ESF's commitment to sustainable practices.
Electrical current is produced by the movement of negatively charged electrons. In order to produce current, traditional coal-power plants use combustion to heat water and turn turbines; this process creates a significant amount of pollution. The fuel cell, however, uses chemical reactions to produce electrical current. This type of fuel cell is known as a molten carbonate fuel cell, using hydrogen produced from natural gas, carbon dioxide, and oxygen in its process. Within the fuel cell, these components are combined, initiating a chemical reaction in which the negatively charged electrons move through an external circuit toward a cathode, creating electrical current.
The benefits of this system are significant. This model generates 17 percent of ESF's campus energy needs, at a rate of 250 kw per hour, which is enough energy to power approximately 2,500 100-watt light bulbs. There is little to no pollution, as many of the by products of the process can be recycled into the chemical reaction or used for other purposes. The heat produced from this fuel cell can be used to heat Walters Hall in the winter by means of a heat exchanger. This process also uses 50 percent less fuel per kw/hour than traditional combustion-based processes and is expected to reduce the use of oil by 3,500 barrels per year.
Because fuel cells produce significantly fewer pollutants than coal or fuel-oil based technologies, they can help reduce overall pollution. Future research will help replace dependence on natural gas and allow the process to run on methane generated from renewable biomass materials like willow. This will result in a more sustainable, cleaner energy and heat source.

Politicians pay last respects to State House doorman
Rhode Island's most famous doorman, who worked at the State House until past his 100th birthday, was laid to rest Tuesday.
Frank DiPaolo was 106 years old. He might be best remembered as a mentor to Patrick Kennedy, when the then-Providence College student began his political career as a state representative candidate in 1988.
At the funeral, lobbyist Rick McAuliffe pointed out that when DiPaolo was born, the median wage in the United States was 22 cents an hour, women were not allowed to vote, and the union had 45 states.
DiPaolo had a varied career including running a restaurant, which is where he met Kennedy. But he was involved in politics long before, having helped in the presidential campaign of Alfred Smith in 1928.
Secretary of State Ralph Mollis, former Lt. Gov. Charles Fogarty and North Providence Mayor Charles Lombardi were among the more than 100 people who attended the funeral at St. Pius Church in Providence.
Kennedy, who attended with his wife Amy and son Owen, said that DiPaolo was a mentor and example to him.
"He not only laid a base for me politically by helping me out and getting me started in my career but he did something much more foundational for me in my life, and that is give me this unconditional love, and gave me a shot at having a life. And that now I can be a better father and be a better friend to other people because Frank was all of that to me," Kennedy said.
Many spoke of DiPaolo's love for life and the fact he never considered himself elderly. He is survived by a son and two daughters, as well as 15 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and a great-great-granddaughter.

Some party themes have obvious centerpieces – an Eiffel Tower replica for a Paris motif or a pail of peanuts for a Western shindig. Seasonal parties are great opportunities to use natural decor that is readily available. Pumpkins and gourds are as great in the autumn as holly and poinsettias are in the winter. Potted miniature pines also are fabulous at Christmas – decorate the trees or leave them plain. Other times, creativity is the order of the day.

Mark McGwire returned to baseball in 2010 for a few reasons. First, because uber-loyal manager Tony La Russa wanted him back. Second, because he missed the game after being away for nine years. Third, he felt he had some knowledge to contribute.
Who would have guessed that McGwire had a knack for coaching? Hitting gurus of the past such as Charlie Lau, Walt Hriniak, Dave Magadan, Lloyd McClendon and even the Dodgers own Manny Mota where certainly not considered Hall of Fame caliber players. It has been said that great hitters have difficulties being hitting coaches. There have been plenty of Hall of Famers that lent their talents to teaching the hitting craft. Some with more success than others that included Rod Carew, Eddie Murray, Duke Snider, Wade Boggs, Ted Williams Rogers Hornsby and Ty Cobb.
Scott Hatteberg addressed this in Michael Lewis' Moneyball, saying that Jim Rice wasn't capable of teaching hitting to lessor talents because he couldn't relate to the weaknesses of hitters such as Hatteberg.
There was nobody that knew the art of hitting a baseball as Ted Williams. He could talk a players ear off about the subject and he'd spot a hitter's weaknesses after watching a few swings. One thing he couldn't do was teach natural talent. When Bobby Doerr sought out his teammate for help during a slump one year, Williams identified his problem immediately and said his bat speed was off a tad. For months on end, Williams would walk by the batting cage when Doerr was working and say "more bat speed Bobby, more bat speed," to which Doerr would reply, "I can't swing the bat any faster, Ted."
Looking back at the history of the game, some of its greatest hitters ever were very influential hitting coaches. Rogers Hornsby had his failures as a manager, but was able to influence a number of great hitters in a positive way. He founded a hitting academy and operated it for years after his major league managerial days were over. He is credited with teaching Ted Williams to wait for a good pitch to hit, a trait that the Splendid Splinter followed to his last days as a hitter. Hornsby's students over the years included Moose Skowron, Ted Kluszewski, Joe Adcock, Ron Santo, Ernie Banks, Billy Williams, Billy Herman and others.
Ty Cobb in his first season as Tigers manager guided his team in hitting and saw their collective team batting average raise from .270 to .316 in 1921. Six years later when he was hired to manage the Philadelphia Athletics, their team batting average raised 42 points to .303. One of Cobb's players, Fred Haney, who also turned out to be a successful manager in his own right, had this to say about Cobb's ability to teach and lead his team many years later:
"I played for him on the Tigers for four years…and what I got was an education in advanced baseball. He knew everything about the game and he got more out of his players than he had to give. I'm proud to say I batted .352 as a rookie (1922) under him. (Christian Science Monitor, September 19, 1975).
So I think it's fair to admit that great hitters with Hall of Fame credentials are able to teach their skills and some are even able to relate to hitters without the natural skills they possessed as players. In McGwire's case, we all saw it first hand. Even more impressive was that he did it without any minor league experience in coaching. It's fair to say, McGwire had an immediate knack for teaching hitting on the major league level. La Russa saw something in Big Mac and when Mark arrived in Jupiter, Florida at Cardinals camp he promptly announced, "I'm going to pour myself into this job."
The results were immediate for the Cardinals. David Freese, Matt Carpenter and Allen Craig all credited McGwire with getting their Major League careers as hitters on track. Craig, who cracked the Major League lineup for the first time in 2010, (McGwire's first year as hitting coach), has developed into a patient productive lifetime .300 hitter. His OBP is a full .50 points higher and he blasted 22 homers last year. Carpenter, in his first full major league season last year had an on base percentage of .365 and was a Rookie of the Year candidate. Freese improved as a hitter during McGwire's tutelage to hit 20 homers with a .372 OBP last year. We all know he was a World Series hero in 2011.
All three hitters have one McGwire trait in common; they work counts and accumulate walks, something Dodger hitters could improve on significantly. Take a look at the 2012 Cardinals numbers comparing their batting averages to on base percentages. These numbers are a direct correlation to a teams ability to work counts and get walks:
- Yadier Molina .315 BA, .373 OBP (an additional 68 points)
- Allen Craig .307 BA, .354 OBP (47 points more)
- Daniel Descalso .227 BA, .303 OBP (76 points more)
- Rafael Furcal .264 BA, .325 OBP ( 61 points more)
- David Freese . 293 BA, .372 OBP (79 points more)
- Matt Holliday .,295 BA, .379 OBP (84 points more)
- Jon Jay .305 BA, .373 OBP (68 points more)
- Carlos Beltran .269 BA, .346 OBP (77 points more)
- Skip Schumaker .276 BA, .339 OBP (63 points more)
- Matt Carpenter .294 BA, .365 OBP (71 points more)
Those are significant statistics that explain why the Cardinals were one game away from the World Series last year and winners of the whole enchilada the year before. If McGwire is half as successful in improving the Dodgers OBP as he was doing so with the Cardinals, the Dodgers will run away with the division. If we watch a player such as Dee Gordon improve his OBP to the .330 range, we're looking at a true leadoff hitter for years to come.
With all the late season acquisitions and major roster changes that the Dodgers have had over the last six months, adding Mark McGwire to the coaching staff just may be the most significant move they have made over that time frame. If the Dodgers hitting approach can change, and by that I mean their 9th place OBP of .317 could move to around .335, the ball club will win the division, I'm convinced of it. McGwire's Cardinals in 2012 led the league with a .338 OBP. A Dodger team with a patient hitting approach will markedly improve. If McGwire reaches the vets and convinces them to buy into his program, the sky is the limit for this veteran ball club.

ESPN's research and analytics division will launch ESPN XP, a research initiative designed to measure consumer viewing preferences during the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa, in June. Using a collection of research companies and the Wharton Business School Interactive Media Department, ESPN XP will measure media usage and advertiser effects during the network's World Cup coverage across its TV, radio, Internet, mobile and print platforms.
The goal is to create a flexible research plan to measure crossmedia audiences for all of its telecasts 12 months out of the year by 2012.
"We have learned a lot about crossmedia behavior since we began work in this field in 2002," said Artie Bulgrin, senior vice president of research and analytics for ESPN. "ESPN XP represents a major step forward in our commitment to further advance our knowledge about multimedia use and the total and incremental impact it has on our clients' media campaigns."
Companies joining ESPN in this initiative include the Keller Fay Group, Knowledge Networks, the Media Behavior Institute, Nielsen and the Wharton Interactive Media Initiative (WIMI). More members will be announced.
ESPN XP is designed as an ongoing initiative, measuring not only the World Cup but also a series of quarterly projects to fall under the ESPN XP umbrella. ESPN will take the best of what is learned from the World Cup and apply it to football in the fall and other sports during 2011.
"This is about the future of crossmedia measurement," said Glenn Enoch, vice president of ESPN's integrated media research. "We are working with these companies to help develop a model for the industry, to advance knowledge about crossmedia research and behavior, to find techniques that work and discard ones that don't. We want to bring work in this area closer to currency measures and bring the industry closer to a day when measuring crossplatform behavior is a standard practice instead of a special project."
