Hello !
I need help with sql / IIS . I want to tell sql or IIS to hide the IP if i want to transfer the IP to another server and have scripts like
= UserData=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
( that is the IP i want IIS or SQL to block from showing in netstat and so on ) . Username, password for the new IP's sql.
Thank you
I wish I could understand what you need because I don't have a clue of what you need.
What do you mean with transferring the IP?
Where is that IP that you want to hide? In a table of a database? In one IIS log?
Try to be as specific as possible and make it a bit clearer please.
I have 1 server that holds the IP 126.96.36.199 but this server is transfering all sql connection to this IP 220.127.116.11 . And users / players connetcs to 126.96.36.199 also they get transferred to 220.127.116.11 . If they look in cmd or any other trace programs, it will look that they are on this IP 184.108.40.206 . So! SQL will be transferred from 220.127.116.11 to 22.214.171.124 .
Sorry... i am trying to explain miself better , but i don't know how. I am trying to get what i am doing too exactly .All the help that is coming is apreciated.

Decapitated, in a very short period of time has become one of the most talked about metal bands today. The band shot to fame with their debut release, "Winds Of Creation". With this album they have achieved a monumental leap in metal ranks, such that bands can only dream about and this monumental rise in success may be attributed to the fact that in not many bands, the average age to be around 18! The band features Sauron on vocals, Vogg on guitar, and Martin on bass and Vitek on drums.
Two years on things have changed, well except for the band line-up, which I hoped would have changed because the band was going nowhere with their previous effort and a fresh mind would have bought new ideas, or at least some ideas. But how much have the changed? Let's find out.
Sauron has improved. His low, raspy growls are no more and they have been replaced with a harsher and throatier one. This suits the music much more since they are more aggressive and quite frankly, playing aggressive is all the band knows.
The massive improvement though is in the guitars department. It's more technical and cuts through you. The relentless shred assault by Vogg is quite a surprise here compared to his damp performance in the band's debut record. He has bought to his music, a lot of variation and so we can hear a lot of riffs throughout this LP. The riffs are more expansive and complex and he has come up with a lot of good ones this time in tracks like, "Perfect Dehumanization (The Answer?)" and "Spheres Of Madness". There is a definite improvement in the quality of guitar solos too, though the quite solos are sparse as well as far and wide between each other.
As for the "mighty" Vitek, he has improved as well. Though he plays very fast through out the record, there are for a change mid-tempo sections too, something that was not seen in the debut of the band. He however still has the annoying tendency to try and hog on the limelight, though it may not be as powerful as in the debut release. His work on the double bass has improved and he has matured but still the same weakness that was in the debut album still haunts him. His drum fills are gutter worthy. They are horrendous and the perfect example can be seen on track 2, "Eternity Too Short".
What can be said about Martin and his bass work? It's just like he doesn't exist or the band doesn't bother to acknowledge his presence. His bass is always lost in the mix and is hardly audible. Whenever the bass can be heard it seems completely out of sync with the rest of the band and you realize that the non-existent bass phase was better off anyway.
The production however is a sort of thumbs up since the production is better and the instruments clearer, but just one thing the producer forgot along with the rest of the band. The bass. The song writing prowess though an improvement over last time still isn't satisfactory and this the reason for the low score I decided to give this album. Yes, there is variance. Yes, there are lot of tempo changes and yes, the band has attempted to try out something new rather tan use the formula they used in the last record that gave them gargantuan amounts of success. But, ah yes, the but. The music is just forced together into a single piece most of the time for the majority of the tracks. The shifting between the fast-tempo and the mid paced tempo seems disjointed and always seem out of place thus maintaining not even a slight degree of fluidity. If this wasn't bad enough, tracks like "Names" and "Symmetry Zero" add to the agony of the listener. An overdose of aggression backed with no variance amounts to a lot of boredom and it's just best if you skip these track altogether.
Overall, this effort is an improvement over the last album. The guitar work is rather good and there are few tracks that are good. They are, "Perfect Dehumanization (The Answer?)", "Spheres Of Madness" and the title track. These tracks, especially Spheres Of Madness consists of harmonious melodies and isn't overtly technical and provides the listener a breath of fresh air. However, the band needs to alternate between the different tempos a in a better way so that they seem surprisingly connected rather than forcefully jointed just for the sake of introducing some variation. There are also a few good moments on the effort, like when the tempo was slowed down in, "Mother War" but the consistency, or more specifically the sheer lack of it results in the presence good moments rather than many good tracks or a good album. This album is worth a try though, and is worth a couple of spins.

Does anyone actually know how much breasts weigh?
- Missy CT
- Last updated: 3 years ago
I have been trying to figure out how much my breast weigh and, therefore, add to my weight and BMI. I have looked on the internet and of course it is full of guess and really bizzare methods of weighing them, apart from getting someone to hold them while you are on the scales, being single this method isnt going to happen soon. I am getting hung up on the weight issue which is weird coz im happy about my weight really, wobbly tummy and all. Ok id like a bit more of a firmer tummy but thats by the by. I am trying to figure out what my BMI would be is i had normal sized boobs. So i was wonding if anyone knows how much weight was removed from boobs about 34GG to get down to a 34 C or D or how much their boobs weigh now before or after. It would really help to convince my doctor this is an issue and that my BMI is influence by my chest. Thanks all

Stacks of proposals on how to remake Falcon School District 49 await teachers, staff and parents when they return from their two-week spring break in April.
A flurry of community and staff meetings were held across the district in February and March as ideas were collected and debated.
Now the hard work begins. And the big question of how different things will be remains unanswered.
District officials say it's too early to predict results of the efforts.
Since January, the roughly 14,700-student district on the eastern edge of Colorado Springs has been working toward applying for innovation status from the Colorado Department of Education, which would allow it to seek exemptions from some state and local rules.
The people making decisions that will affect kids are the teachers, staff and parents who are closest to the kids, said Assistant Superintendent Bob Felice, who leads the Vista Ridge Zone.
"That's a major shift in how we do business," he said.
Eventually, each building and each of the three primary zones will submit innovation plans to the school board and then to the state. The zones could follow divergent paths, but so far the differences are minor.
Ideas for change ran the gamut from typed proposals with references, research and a list of supporters, to handwritten single-sentence suggestions.
People in all zones wanted to grant teachers more time for collaboration. Regular late start or early release school days were suggested.
In Vista Ridge, a parent suggested using the teachers of electives as a roaming group of substitutes. While they taught their special classes at a school, the regular teachers could spend time working together.
The idea of a four-day instruction week for students gained traction in Falcon and Sand Creek. The fifth day would be used for professional development or for additional instruction for kids who needed a boost.
Digging into those possibilities will require a look at the "seat time" mandated by the state, although currently the district surpasses the minimum.
Changing the way teacher evaluations are done was another popular concept. Some want other teachers, not administrators, to be part of the evaluation process.
State law is specific in what must be included and the paperwork that must be done for evaluations. Many call some of the requirements redundant.
"We'll see what rises to the surface," Assistant Superintendent Mark Carara, who leads the Falcon Zone, said of the ideas.
Felice said he expected many changes would not require waivers of state or district policy. He said it would be reasonable to have about three ideas that would call for waivers, such as a change to teacher evaluations, included in the zone innovation application.
Key differences between the Falcon, Sand Creek and Vista Ridge zones haven't surfaced.
Priorities vary, as have levels of enthusiasm, involvement and meeting structure.
In Falcon, for example, there was an outcry for busing, acknowledging that may mean cuts elsewhere.
Participants in the Vista Ridge Zone meetings seemed the most enthusiastic about potential changes. Relationships, with a focus on parent involvement, emerged as a priority. Also making the list of priorities was an aligned K-12 curriculum and instruction that focused on problem-solving.
Sand Creek Zone meetings have been smaller and quieter. Concerns focused on time — not enough time for teachers to plan and not enough time for struggling students to receive help.
Most of those attending conventions for any zone were district employees and parents active in schools.
Some expressed frustration with the way the board had pushed the concept, and believe that ultimately it will do what it wants despite the zone decisions. One person at a Sand Creek Zone meeting asked if a waiver could be sought to do away with the school board.
After establishing a different administrative organization and selecting zone leaders, the school board stepped back, as it said it would do.
A tentative calendar approved by the school board in February has innovation plans being put together before the school year ends in May. The goal is to obtain state approval so the district may begin operating under innovation status starting in the 2012-2013 school year.
"We're right where we want to be," Felice said.
At the end of this week, the innovation leaders, department heads, the chief education officer and other district leaders will meet and review budget details in light of possible program changes.
District 49 is looking at $7 million to $9 million in cuts based on the state forecast.
Felice said the innovation structure grants each school more agility to deal with problems — especially fiscal challenges.
"We'll be able to stretch our dollar further," he said.

The Spirit Towelby Stephen LaBounty (2007-09-25)
The spirit towel used in the LaBounty lineage of American Kenpo is one of function as well as tradition.
For over 40 years the motto of this lineage has been "Spirit, Honor, Discipline" taken from the Japanese words of "Seishin, Meiyo, Kiritsu" and used as a description of what should be ever-present on the practitioner's mind.
The Towel is used to bind wounds, protect injuries, wear as a headband or---its most common usage---to wipe the sweat from one's eyes, etc.
The proper way to fold the towel is to first have the Kanji face away from you so that the word "Spirit" is displayed to all present. Then take the left hand and fold one third of the towel to the inner center. This is known as the "Honor" side. After which, fold the right third of the towel to the inner center. This side is known as the "Discipline" side. Once this is done the towel is folded in half representing the Physical and Spiritual aspects of the Art. Some have likened this to the "Tiger and Dragon" symbols so common in Kenpo.
The towel is then placed underneath and then over the belt (Obi) so that the "Spirit" Kanji is visible from the front. It is customary to have the towel on the left side for men and the right side for women. Now the rules are simpler. Do not cover the knot with the towel. Always wear the towel to the front or side unless wearing as a head band. Use the towel freely as it was meant to be, but any blood should be washed immediately from it. This custom is so that the battle that brought the blood forth is to be forgotten and a new training is before you.
The ancient warriors used towels in this manner for cleaning tools, weapons, utensils. But they had a special towel for their battles. It was held in high esteem and accompanied them everywhere.
Just let the cloth remind you that all details matter and should be done with as much spirit as possible, and in honor to self, teacher, system, with the discipline of the strong and not of the lazy or weak.

Five Best Hot Fudge Sundaes in Broward and Palm Beach
Ladies and gentlemen, July 25 is National Hot Fudge Sundae Day. With heaping scoops of ice cream melting underneath heated fudge, lathered in whipped cream, and topped with a maraschino cherry, it's no wonder the dish got itself its own holiday.
The history of the sundae is obscure, but the most popular origin myth is that it was invented in reaction to blue laws that prohibited the sale of ice cream on Sundays. The whipped cream, chocolate sauce, nuts, and other toppings that obscured the ice cream made the dish -- at least for legal purposes -- not technically ice cream.
Another version of the story says it was made from the leftovers of different ice cream flavors at the end of the weekend. For dignity's sake, we prefer the law-defying version.

5. Stuffed Monkey Bites Sundae, Moonlite Diner, Hollywood
Open from 7 a.m. to late, this metal lunchbox houses some unconventional desserts. With a warm cinnamon roll resting beneath scoops of vanilla ice cream, the Monkey Bites sundae is smothered with caramel sauce and whipped cream and speckled with cinnamon and a bright-red cherry. Don't let the name fool you; this is one monkey bite that won't hurt.

4. Brownie Hot Fudge Sundae, Sloan's, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, and Palm Beach Gardens
A kaleidoscope of bright colors, the walls at Sloan's are lined with vibrant candy. This is probably the only place where you can leash your children without judgmental glares. You're served three scoops of the ice cream of your choice -- be nice to your server and he or she will let you pick more than one -- Heath bar bits, hot fudge, whipped cream, and cherries on top. It's aesthetically constructed with colorful streamers and glittery toothpicks. You'll definitely want to Instagram it before it melts (no filters needed).
3. Mint Chocolate Chip Hot Fudge Sundae, Larry's Old Fashioned Ice Cream & Yogurt, Coral Springs
A flashback to the black-and-white Leave It to Beaver days, the ice cream at Larry's is homemade, and the discount wheel isn't rigged. Take a spin and see what you'll pay. If you're lucky, you can get this one on the house. Even if you don't spin your way to some sort of steal, the minty freshness colliding with the chocolate chips and warm chocolate sauce under whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, and bright-red cherry, well, that's too tempting to pass up no matter the price. May the odds be ever in your favor.

2. Half & Half Sundae, Jaxson's Ice Cream Parlour Restaurant, Dania Beach
The ice cream flavors available at Jaxson's are vast, and it would be cruel to make you choose just one. But don't worry; no one expects you to. The half and half sundae lets you pick two hearty scoops of whichever two flavors your heart desires (just think twice before mixing the mint with the peach). Then they drown it in hot chocolate and butterscotch fudge, top it with fluffy whipped cream, and fleck it with toasted almonds. But instead of sticking a cherry on top, they stick two American-flag toothpicks in it, one on each mountain of ice cream. God Bless America!
1. Cherry Smash Sundae, Cherry Smash Ice Cream Parlour, Coral Springs
A nostalgic ice cream parlor with vintage knickknacks and a checkerboard floor, at Cherry Smash, the eponymous sundae is not to be missed. Served in a golden goblet, this frozen dessert calls for the shop's signature Purple Haze ice cream, a blend of chocolate, cherry, and raspberry flavors. Hidden inside are chocolate-covered maraschino cherry candies that need to be unwrapped for consumption. Conglomerating in the mix are walnuts, black cherry sauce, and hot fudge.

Colchester: Prime minister visits job centre
PUBLISHED: 13:49 28 April 2014 | UPDATED: 14:40 28 April 2014
David Cameron visited the Colchester Jobcentre Plus today to launch a national scheme.
The prime minister spoke at the High Street site to launch the Help to Work Scheme, a package of measures designed to get the long-term unemployed back into work.
Options open to Jobcentre staff include making claimants sign on every day and take part in a community work placement for up to six months in order to build up skills.
Speaking in Colchester Mr Cameron said: "This is about helping people who have been out of work get back into work, but we are very clear that there are no more easy options.
"The days of giving people benefit cheques and not asking for anything in return - those days are gone.
"If you have been out of work - sometimes for three years - it is absolutely right to say to people if you want to go on receiving welfare then you should do some work because that work helps you to get back into work."
It is the second time in five days Colchester has been visited by a senior politician.
Deputy prime minister Nick Clegg visited the town on Thursday to launch his Liberal Democrat party's European election manifesto in the morning, and carried out ministerial duties when he went to a Greenstead school in the afternoon.

Duck posted a poignant and thought-provoking post a few days ago.
It was a meditation of sorts, on aspiration and dreams. Brought into sharp focus through the lens of experience of one young Indian woman, Megla. And the stark realisation that her particular dream will forever remain beyond her grasp.
And in this system where she must find an alternative dream to reach for, where even the love of a good man is a lottery, there are other hurdles to overcome: corruption and bribery.
But the web is enabling citizens to take a stand against these corrosive practices:
ipaidabribe.com is Janaagraha's unique initiative to tackle corruption by harnessing the collective energy of citizens. You can report on the nature, number, pattern, types, location, frequency and values of actual corrupt acts on this website. Your reports will, perhaps for the first time, provide a snapshot of bribes occurring across your city. We will use them to argue for improving governance systems and procedures, tightening law enforcement and regulation and thereby reduce the scope for corruption in obtaining services from the government. We invite you to register any recent or old bribes you have paid. Please tell us if you resisted a demand for a bribe, or did not have to pay a bribe, because of a new procedure or an honest official who helped you. We do not ask for your name or phone details, so feel free to report on the formats provided.
But it's still going to be a struggle…….
Seeing these ideas taking root, the Chief Secretary of the state – the highest ranking bureaucrat – has since sought our support to do more. Last month, we saw ipaidabribe posters going up in key government departments all over the city of Bangalore, asking people to send a text message to us if they had to pay a bribe for a government service, or if they didn't have to pay a bribe. We thought there would be a deluge of messages, until we discovered just last week that the government offices were putting up the posters at a height of 15 feet, barely visible unless you are superman! So clearly, even when we think we have wrested a victory, setbacks lurk just around the corner, or above one's head.
You can read more about ipaidabribe here, and their work in Kenya, Greece, Zimbabwe and Pakistan.

Taiwan's political rivals call truce in a fierce battle that went nowhere
After failing to kick out the legislative speaker, Ma Ying-jeou had no choice but to make peace
After an intense month and a half of legal manoeuvring and scandalous revelations, the fierce political battle between Taiwanese President Ma Ying-jeou and speaker of the legislature Wang Jin-pyng seems to have been resolved, with all players emerging unscathed.
Ma and Wang recently staged a so-called grand reconciliation, with Ma dropping his planned pursuit of a final appeal against a court injunction that had allowed Wang to stay on as speaker. In return, Wang joined fellow party legislators in voting down a no-confidence motion initiated by the opposition against Premier Jiang Yi-huah, who heads the cabinet and is an ally of Ma's.
The actions, coming after numerous pacification efforts by Kuomintang leaders, ended - on the surface at least - the showdown between Ma and Wang. The strife began on August 31, when Prosecutor General Huang Shih-ming reported to Ma on information gathered through wiretapping that allegedly showed illegal lobbying by Wang on behalf of Ker Chien-ming, the legislative caucus whip of the pro-independence Democratic Progressive Party.
Believing that Wang had tried to use his influence to stop a prosecutor from appealing to a high court's not-guilty verdict on a criminal breach-of-trust case involving Ker, Ma held a news conference on September 8, demanding that Wang - who was recommended by the KMT as an "at-large" legislator - step down. Days later, Ma, in his capacity as KMT chairman, ordered the party disciplinary committee to revoke Wang's KMT membership so that he would be removed as speaker. But Wang twice won a court injunction to temporarily freeze the KMT action.
The clash spilled into another political scandal, with Huang being accused of illegally wiretapping the legislature. Ma was summoned as a witness to testify on his role in the scandal after he admitted in several news media interviews that Huang showed him the wiretapping transcript a week before government investigators ended their probes into the influence-peddling case.
The scandal threatened to become a crisis, with the DPP tabling a motion in mid-October for a vote of no-confidence in Jiang's cabinet.
During the vote, Wang voted against the DPP's motion, a move he had already announced the day before. The KMT, which dominates the legislature, outnumbered the DPP during the vote and quashed the motion.
With Wang expected to be able to complete his term as speaker, which ends in 2016, there was little Ma or the KMT could do now but welcome him back. As long as Wang is speaker, Ma and his party will still need his support on bills, budgets and agreements such as the cross-strait service trade pact that Ma hopes to pass.
It seems the dust has settled, and the newly unified KMT can concentrate on next year's local government elections. But with no one on the hook for any wrongdoing, some questions that have arisen - over the speaker's lobbying in the legislature and government investigators' inappropriate use of wiretapping - are left hanging, at least for the time being.

Raleigh, N.C. — The North Carolina Chamber is pushing lawmakers to spend somewhere between $3.5 billion and $10 billion over the next 15 years to update the state's roads, bridges, rail lines and ports, a move that will require the state to find new revenue sources.
"2015 needs to be a year of action, where North Carolina leaders make decisive, long-term commitment," said N.C. Chamber President Lew Ebert during a news conference Wednesday morning, hours before lawmakers were getting ready to begin their work in earnest for the year.
Ebert and other speakers outlined problems stemming from congested roadways and rapid growth of the state's population, pointing out that it has become harder for manufacturers to get goods to distribution centers.
Jerry Cook, vice president for government and trade relations at Winston-Salem's Hanesbrands, said his company and others in the area have problems getting drivers to haul loads from their factories to warehouses because of the time lost on U.S. Highway 52. The state has studied how to raise money and improve its transportation network for more than a decade now.
"We don't need to study this anymore. We know what the answer is, and it's time to go after it," Cook said.
However, going after it will require money that the state currently isn't raising. Ebert pointed out that much of the state's transportation funding relies on gas taxes, which drop off when the price of gas drops, as been happening in the short term. Long term, more fuel-efficient cars and cars that don't use gas have meant less revenue for the state to build roads.
This type of big building and repair program would mean big changes to state tax policy and could be hard to push through the legislature. But the N.C. Chamber has a track record of pushing big policy shifts through the legislature. It was a coalition led by the chamber in 2013 that pushed through major changes to the state's unemployment insurance system over the objections of Democrats and liberal groups.Federal Communication Commission filings show that the chamber is already buying up air time on television stations to further its campaign. Along with the chamber, other politically potent groups, such as the North Carolina Farm Bureau, the National Federation of Independent Businesses and the North Carolina Association of Realtors, have also signed on to what is being called the "Coalition for a Prosperous Future."
Gov. Pat McCrory has already talked about a road-building program that would tap what is thought to be a $1.2 billion bond, and lawmakers are already talking about what mechanisms they might use to borrow the money.
Chamber Vice President Gary Salamido said the chamber supports what he called a "short-term financing solution" state leaders are already talking about. But the state, he said, needs to look toward ensuring an adequate source of construction funds for years into the future.
A report issued by the chamber Wednesday points to 16 different fundraising sources the state could tap. They include taxes on vehicle miles traveled, a statewide sales tax, heavy vehicle fees and different types of titling taxes.
Officials with the chamber did not specify which of those long-term funding options it would favor, saying only that it was up to lawmakers to make those decisions.
It's unclear how the Republicans who control both the House and the Senate will react to a plan that would, in essence, require them to raise taxes.
Rep. John Torbett, R-Gaston, a key transportation leader in the House, said there may be no way to fund the needed projects without raising the amount of tax dollars coming in.
"We're about a decade behind in infrastructure building," Torbett said. "There's absolutely no way under the current structure to make up for that lost decade."
But Republicans have run on a message of budget austerity and low taxes, and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Bill Rabon said he didn't think GOP leaders would move off that stance. The General Assembly, he said, may look at different road-funding options, but he said it was unlikely for leaders to sign off on a plan that would raise taxes overall.
"As far as people paying more for what they're getting – no," said Rabon, R-Brunswick.
While lawmakers debate how to pay for transportation improvements, there's likely to be a fair amount of discussion over what to pay for.
Speakers at the chamber news conference said that, in addition to improving roads and bridges, the state should look at improving rail lines and adding multi-modal centers that allow tractor-trailers to move goods from roadways to rail to the ports.
Taking trucks off the roads, said Charles Edwards, of the North Carolina Center for Global Logistics, will mean less pressure to build roads and make existing roads safer.

Actual air temperatures dropped to between 35 and 40 degrees below zero in northern Minnesota on Thursday morning. Thankfully, temperatures continued to rise through the day and overnight.
Babbitt, Minn., bottomed out at 40 below zero, with 36 below in International Falls, Minn., and 34 below in Orr, Minn., on Thursday morning.
St. Cloud dropped down to -21 on Thursday morning, while the mercury dipped to -17 at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
A swath of snow was developing in central Minnesota this afternoon. This snow will race quickly through southeast Minnesota and Wisconsin depositing an inch or two. Poor timing for afternoon commutes. Be prepared for slick spots, especially on lesser traveled roads.
Snow cover is quite expansive and deep across northern Minnesota, northwest Wisconsin and upper Michigan.
We are approaching the time of the season when hydrologists more closely monitor the water equivalent of the snow pack to assess spring flood potential. Plenty of winter lies ahead. Stay tuned with updates from the North Central River Forecast Center.
I took a core sample in my back yard this morning and the 12 inches of snowpack had 2.5 inches of water content.
Saturday morning will bring a preview of the bitter cold as winds gust to 25 miles per hour. But this icy jolt is setting us up for another bout of snow and wallop of biting arctic air.
A knot is roughly 1.2 miles per hour.
Snowfall on Saturday night and Sunday is expected to move down the winter highway of Interstate 94. Snowfall totals of 2 to 4 inches are likely in the heaviest snow band.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Weather Prediction Center forecasts the probability of 2 inches of snow.
The upper Midwest will be in the core of the arctic blast on Monday and Tuesday.
Advisories for dangerously cold wind chills will likely be posted once again for Sunday and Monday.
Wind chill readings will be in the 35 to 45 degrees below zero range Sunday night and Monday.
A massive arctic high pressure dome of frigid air is forecast to be centered over the Northern Plains on Tuesday morning. Bitter cold will surge well south.

FDA Approves Use of Vaccine for Cervical Cancer
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
JEFFREY BROWN: Cervical cancer is the second-leading cause
of cancer death among women worldwide, killing more than 250,000 a year. And
while widespread use of pap smears has reduced its toll in the U.S.,
it still causes more than 3,700 deaths a year here.
Yesterday, the Food and Drug Administration approved the
first vaccine to prevent the disease. And here to tell us about it is Dr.
Elizabeth Garner, a gynecological oncologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital in
Boston. For the
record, she has no affiliation with Merck, the company that is marketing the
new vaccine, called Gardasil.
Dr. Garner, I think it would help, first, to explain to us
how cervical cancer is caused so we can understand how the vaccine itself
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER, Gynecological Oncologist: Certainly. The
vast majority of cervical cancers are caused by a virus known as human
papilloma virus. This is a very common virus. By the age of 50, probably about
80 percent of women have been infected at one point in time during their lives.
Most women don't get any problems from human papilloma
virus, but a minority of women, for reasons that aren't entirely clear, develop
precancerous changes on the cervix, which, if left untreated, will develop
ultimately or can develop ultimately into cervical cancer.
JEFFREY BROWN: So the vaccine blocks the infection that, in
some cases, leads to cervical cancer?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Exactly. Right. And the vaccine is
made of these small particles that are called virus-like particles that, to a
woman's immune system, look exactly like the virus, so as if she has been
infected, but they don't actually contain any of the actual viral material.
So, when giving the virus-like particles, one can elicit an
immune reaction that then can prevent the changes that develop in the cervix.
When to start protection?
JEFFREY BROWN: And how effective is this new vaccine?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: This vaccine is very effective. In arecent trial, it prevented pretty much 100 percent of the infections of HPV,the human papilloma virus, and also prevented about 100 percent of theprecancerous changes that can develop on the cervix.
It also is important to note that this vaccine also treatsor prevents the changes caused by a couple of other types of human papillomavirus which don't cause cancer, but which can cause genital warts and otherproblems. And the vaccine was also very effective at preventing those.
JEFFREY BROWN: Now, the vaccine was approved for girls andwomen aged nine to 26, but the big question at the moment is: At what ageshould it be given? Explain to us the issues here.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: So the main issue is that the vaccineis going to be most effective if it's given to a girl or a young woman beforeshe has become exposed to human papilloma virus.
JEFFREY BROWN: And -- excuse me -- that means before shewould be sexually active in...
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Exactly, because this is a sexuallytransmitted infection. And a recent study, actually, showed that by the age of13 about 7 percent of girls will report that they've been sexually active atsome point.
So, certainly by age 13, there's a significant number ofgirls who are already engaging in sexual activity and who already are likelyexposed to human papilloma virus, so one needs to try to target girls beforethey've been exposed.
JEFFREY BROWN: And this is because -- again, just to clarify-- it's not as effective once a woman has been infected?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Correct.
Mandatory vs. morals
JEFFREY BROWN: OK. Now, another big question then is whetherthe vaccine should be made mandatory or remain voluntary, and I guess inparticular whether it should be required for schools, for children going toschools.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Yes. And I think that's going to endup being a rather complicated question. Because it's a sexually transmittedinfection, it's going to be a somewhat different situation than for othervaccines, such as chicken pox and so on, that can be transmitted throughsomething as simple as a sneeze.
Human papilloma virus is not transmitted that way, and so itmight be a little bit more difficult to make the argument that it needs to bemandatory for school attendance.
JEFFREY BROWN: And here, in fact, there are some socialconservative groups who are raising questions about it.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Well, certainly, because I thinksimilar to, for instance, oral contraception, one could be concerned that, ifone tells a young girl that she's now prevented from getting cancer, or atleast cervical cancer, that she will then interpret that as meaning she canhave sex at a younger age.
And so Merck is, I think, going to specifically market thisvaccine as a cancer prevention vaccine and not a vaccine for sexuallytransmitted infection.
JEFFREY BROWN: But how will the decision be made as towhether it is mandatory? Who makes that decision?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: The states will decide that. There's aNational Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which is a CDCorganization, and that organization will decide what the recommendations willbe, in terms of scheduling, and age, and those sorts of things.
But in terms of whether the vaccine will be mandatory forgirls to attend school will be a state decision.
Paying for protection
JEFFREY BROWN: All right. Next issue is cost. Myunderstanding is this requires three doses over six months for a total cost of$360, relatively expensive for a vaccine.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Yes, it is.
JEFFREY BROWN: So is it expected that it would be coveredunder most private insurance plans?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Well, certainly, if it's a mandatoryvaccine, I think it will be covered. You know, whether it's going to be coveredif it is voluntary, I think, is definitely yet to be determined.
There certainly are a lot of arguments for making it, youknow, a covered vaccine. This is something that is being given, you know, toprevent a potentially lethal problem. So I do think there are arguments towardsmaking it something that's covered, but, you know, it's definitely yet to beseen.
JEFFREY BROWN: But that would also weigh on various stateprograms that would have to provide it, I guess? And, of course, also for theuninsured...
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Sure.
JEFFREY BROWN: ... it's a big cost.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Sure. Yes.
JEFFREY BROWN: Now, cost also is a factor -- we've beentalking mostly about the U.S.,but, as I said, this a larger problem worldwide. In the developing world, costswould no doubt be an even bigger factor. Tell us about the situation there andwhat kind of programs either are planned or might be planned to help.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Sure. I think that Merck has indicatedthat they have several ideas in place.
One is that I believe they've been in contact with the Billand Melinda Gates Foundation, who have certainly expressed some interest inhelping in vaccine distribution.
I think that also the company has indicated that they willbe willing to, you know, think about and consider differential pricing andperhaps selling the vaccine at cost. And I think these are potential ways tomake it more available.
JEFFREY BROWN: And I mentioned earlier that the incidence isdown in the U.S. because of pap smears. Is the situation in the developingworld as bad as it is because pap smears are not used as much?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Yes. In fact, in this country, whenthe pap smear was introduced as widespread screening, we saw the incidence ofcervical cancer drop about 70 percent, but those pap smear programs are notavailable in many parts of the developing world. And so we still see high ratesof cervical cancer.
Staying vigilant
JEFFREY BROWN: And I noticed that officials are stilltelling women that they still should get pap smears, even with this vaccine. Whyis that?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Well, part of the reason is I thinkthat it's not quite clear, in fact, how long, what the longevity is of theprotective response from the vaccine.
Initial studies suggest that there certainly is protectionup to about five years. But, you know, if you are giving the vaccine to girlsat the age of nine or 10, that only takes them to their teenage years, so Ithink there's still some questions about the durability of the protectiveeffect.
Also, the vaccine covers HPV types 16 and 18, but there arecertainly other hybrid types of HPV that also are known to cause cervicalcancer. Types 16 and 18 cover or protect against -- or I should say cause about70 percent of cervical cancer. So you've still got about 30 percent of cancersthat are caused by other strains of HPV.
JEFFREY BROWN: And when might this new vaccine be on themarket?
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Well, certainly Merck has indicatedthat they will do everything to have it out and available within about a monthof FDA approval, so I think it will be available quite soon.
JEFFREY BROWN: All right. A lot of questions, but I guess avery exciting development.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Yes.
JEFFREY BROWN: So, Dr. Elizabeth Garner, thank you verymuch.
DR. ELIZABETH GARNER: Thank you.

Israel Arrests 15 Palestinians In Response to a Suicide Bombing
By GREG MYRE
Published: December 7, 2005
In response to a suicide bombing on Monday, Israeli security forces arrested 15 suspected Palestinian militants in overnight raids that ended Tuesday. The suspects included the father and a brother of the bomber.
In addition, all Palestinians in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip have been barred from entering Israel, the military said Tuesday.
Israel said it would step up military operations after the bombing that killed five Israelis at the entrance to a shopping mall in Netanya, a seaside town.
The focus will be on Islamic Jihad, which carried out the attack and three other suicide bombings this year in which Israelis were killed.
''We decided to operate in a much broader, much deeper and more intensive manner against the Islamic Jihad infrastructure,'' Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said on army radio.
Despite the warning of a potentially large military operation, the initial response was limited.
All 15 suspects were arrested in the northern West Bank, including 8 men who the military said were linked to Islamic Jihad in the Tulkarm area. The military said the detainees included the father and a brother of Lofti Abu Saada, 21, who carried out the bombing on Monday. The Abu Saada family lives in Illar, outside Tulkarm.
The Israeli news media reported that Mr. Mofaz was seeking legal authority to tear down the bomber's house. For many years, Israel demolished the houses of Palestinian militants as punishment. But the military said in February that it was halting the practice after an internal review questioned its value.
Also on Tuesday, the Palestinian security forces detained 13 Islamic Jihad members in the West Bank, Palestinian officials said. The Palestinian leader, Mahmoud Abbas, has sought to persuade Islamic Jihad and other factions to halt their attacks. The Palestinian Authority has occasionally detained suspected militants. But in many cases, they are held briefly. Israel calls such detentions inconsequential.
A number of Islamic Jihad leaders turned off their cellphones and could not be contacted. The leaders regularly do that after a bombing in the hope that it will make it more difficult for Israel to locate them.
On Sunday, Israel increased to 37,000 the number of Palestinian workers and businessmen allowed to enter Israel each day from the West Bank and Gaza. The figure was about one-fourth the number of daily Palestinian commuters from those areas before the Palestinian uprising began five years ago. Israel says that when it allows more Palestinians enter, terror attacks soon increase.
The military did not say how long the new rules would last. Israel has barred Palestinians many times in the past, with the closings tending to last for days or weeks.
Israeli security officials said they were still trying to determine how Mr. Abu Saada, the bomber, reached Netanya. Israel's separation barrier has made it more difficult for Palestinians to slip into Israel illegally. But some manage to enter in places where the barrier is incomplete, like Jerusalem.

Nineteen percent of same-sex couples raising children had an adopted child in the house in 2009, reported the New York Times yesterday. That's up from eight percent in 2000. The article also looks at the struggles same-sex couples have to start families in the many states where they cannot jointly adopt.
I covered a lot of the same ground myself in a two-part series for Keen News Service back in April. (Part One, "HHS urges child welfare agencies to better serve LGBTQ youth," and Part Two, "With children in need, states struggle over gay adoptive parents.") The NYT offers some nice profiles of adoptive families, though, and is definitely worth a read (along with their piece from last Friday on gender variance in children, if you haven't read it. It's great to see topics like these getting positive mainstream coverage.

This is a signature dessert of The Palace Cafe in New Orleans. This recipe is not exactly the same as theirs, but it is close and a little less rich. But it is still very rich and will wreck your diet in a second. I have made this for guest and it has always been a huge hit. They will usually say it is the best dessert they have ever had and use phrases like this is better than sex and this is orgasmic. Yeah, its that good. Use day old French bread or dry it out in the oven a bit if fresh. You can use a double boiler to melt the chocolate or just melt it in a sauce pan but if you use the sauce pan, go slow.
- Yield
- 8+ People
- For the pudding
- ■10 oz white chocolate chips or cut into small pieces (the smaller the easier it is to melt)
- ■1 cup whole milk
- ■1/2 cup sugar
- ■3 cups heavy whipping cream
- ■2 eggs
- ■8 egg yolks
- ■1 loaf day old French bread, sliced into 1/4 inch slices
- For the ganache
- ■8 oz white chocolate chips or cut into small pieces
- ■3 oz heavy whipping cream
- For pudding 1. Heat the cream in a double boiler. Add white chocolate and melt. Remove from heat. 2. Heat the milk, eggs, egg yolks, and sugar in a double boiler until warm. Blend this mixture with the white chocolate and cream mixture and set aside. 3. Layer bread slices in a large baking pan overlapping on top of one another until pan is near full. Pour 1/2 of the mixture over the bread and let it settle for a bit so that the bread soaks up the mixture. Pour the remaining mixture on the bread and again allow to absorb. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour at 275°F. Remove foil and bake for another 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown. For ganache Heat the cream in a double boiler. Add white chocolate and melt. Pour over individual servings of the bread pudding. You should refrigerate the pudding for about 2 hours, (not critical though) allowing it to set properly. Then serve warmed in a microwave with a garnish of dark chocolate shavings and / or with French vanilla bean ice cream. Yum!

I have a small but good thing to report...
...to wit: I attended the Tucson Gem Show with some friends this past few days. We stayed at a Country Inn in Tucson. On Saturday morning while we sat having breakfast, I looked up at the TV and lo! and behold! It was tuned to UP With Chris Hayes!!
I expected it to be tuned to Faux News, and was actually shocked to hear Chris and his guests having an intelligent discussion.
I took it as a good sign. Every little bit helps!

2. You would be surprised. I have only seen one business in Tucson in my 2+ years here
With Fux on. That was Oro Valley Hospital. At least it was until I showed up for knee surgury. Now they have CNN or cooking shows or whatever. I was polite. Tucson is pretty blue and I think business owners know that if they have fux on, they lose customers. Can't think of anything that would get me to walk out the door faster.

I bet you had a great time!!! I look at all the bead books and mags with a bib on from all the drooling!
And then to top it off with this special bit of good news - it's like adding the perfect clasp to a beautifully assembled necklace! And in Arizona no less! That means whoever was there before left it tuned to MSNBC. There is obviously a recognition of demand there on behalf of that hotel's management. GREAT news!

13. We did have a great time...
...but next time I think I'll insist we spend a full 4 days. The 2 days we spent (really 1-1/2 days of shopping time) just weren't enough to do it justice.

...in fact, you can't do the whole show if you stay from beginning to end. Still, it was a wonderful experience and I have some great items to show for it. I'll put some pictures up in the Photography Group sometime in the next few days.

8. I don't really watch news too much
But whenever I see fox news turned on the TV in the break room at work, I start to mock it and complain about my brain cells dying and how stupid the viewership of that network is. I've been doing it since about election time and I've noticed that the TV is tuned to fox less and less.
There is only one rabid fox news fan in my facility that I know of and, I hate to be so full of myself, I'm way smarter and much more well read than him and I can blow him away in any political conversation that he wants to wage. Also, unlike this guy, courtesy of the US Army I am much more worldly than he is despite my relative young age.

15. Yes. Even in Arizona. It can happen even in Arizona! Just make your voice heard!
Just start by making a complaint. And keep at it til you get what you want. That's what the frickin' teabaggers have done. That's what Pox Noise does every day of the week and twice on Sunday! Repeat, repeat, repeat. On it, on it, on it. Again, and again, and again. I did that at my neighborhood bank. And I didn't give up. Every time I went in there, I complained. I complained to whatever teller I saw. THEN, when I didn't see any results, I started walking over to the far end of the room where the managers' desks were, and I complained THERE. Sure enough, I soon noticed that there was no more Pox Noise on my bank's TV monitors. Now it was CNBC or CNN.
I made my complaints personal. I used to be a news reporter/anchor. And truly, I am personally offended by what passes for "news coverage" on outfits like Pox Noise. It dirties up the profession I used to love and in which I was SO proud to play a small part. Gives the whole concept of "news" a big fat oozing black eye. It makes me ashamed. It makes me ashamed of that whole industry that I was once part of. I looked on it as more than just a job or a profession. It was almost like a calling. A calling to inform and educate and illuminate, to spread truth and shed light and cut through lies and bullshit and bear witness. It was like being on a mission. And then these assholes come along with their blonde blow-up dolls and their plastic puffed-up "anchormen" and their ding-dong bells and flashing lights and bright moving colors and just PERVERT everything, while dumbing down America.
I HATE Pox Noise with a burning passion.

17. I have been noticing somewhat the same here in South Carolina.
I don't see MSNBC (not on the very basic tier on my local cable network), but I am seeing less and less of Fox "News" on TVs out and about. Even at my gym, where the set in the women's lounge is usually tuned to some other channel. It it's on Fox, and nobody is watching, I do my patriotic duty and change the channel. I have found myself having to do that less and less over the past few months.

Cute Overload: The Many Faces Of Flynn Bloom In NYC
Flynn Bloom, the most handsome little boy around.Aww, the faces of a child. So precious. Especially when that child is
Seriously, with parents as pretty as Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr, you'd think he would be on the plain side (that's how it works). But clearly Flynn defied that logic.
Flynn and his daddy/my future husband, Orlando, were spotted in New York City earlier today enjoying a stroll through downtown while Flynn made a variety of faces. I wonder how Flynn took the news that his mommy and daddy are splitting up?
a few days later are kissing and making it look like everything is alright. This is all speculative, of course. I haven't been privy to what's going on in the household, only to the fact that Flynn is super cute.
His faces tell the story of childhood: joy, boredom and very quickly, excitement. Kids are so cute. Launch the gallery to check out all the photos of Orlando and Flynn. Side note: Orlando's green jacket is amazing.

UEFA set to decide Milan's Champions League fate
LONDON, July 31 (Reuters) - UEFA will announce on Wednesday at 1200 GMT whether to allow AC Milan to participate in this season's Champions League, it said on Monday.
Milan will face Cork City of Ireland or former champions Red Star Belgrade in the third qualifying round if UEFA decides they can play in Europe's premier club competition.
The six-times European champions were found guilty in the Serie A match-fixing probe but an Italian soccer appeals court adjudicating in the scandal reduced their initial punishment.
Milan, initially deducted 15 points, had the deficit cut to eight which enabled them to be included in last Friday's Champions League draw.
However, UEFA reserved the right to decide whether they could take up their place in the competition.
European soccer's governing body said on its Web site on Monday that it had 'invited Milan and the Italian Football Federation to submit observations on the matter after last Thursday's meeting of the Emergency Panel'.
The panel will decide 'after a detailed study of the matter, including analysis of any further information received'.

Female Power has a Proud Tradition at Audi
When the new DTM season opens on April 9th, this date will mark the first time in the most popular international touring car series history for two females Audi factory driver Vanina Ickx and Susie Stoddart to be starting from the grid. At Audi Sport, "female power has a proud tradition because Vanina Ickx will be following in the footsteps of Michèle Mouton and Tamara Vidali.
Both caused a stir as Audi works drivers and affirmed their place in the male-dominated world of motorsport. When Audi entered the World Rally Championship with the original quattro, Michèle Mouton was the absolute sensation. In 1981 Mouton, who is now 54, was the first ever female to win a WRC round. In 1982 the high-spirited French lady, who was nicknamed "The Volcano, barely missed clinching the World Championship title.
In the late nineties, Tamara Vidali stirred up the male community in Super Touring Car racing. With the Audi A4 quattro, the Italian managed to claim several podium places before fully concentrating on her career as an architect.
This year sees Vidali making a comeback in Italy at the wheel of an Audi RS4. Whereas for the 39-year old Italian motorsport today is merely a hobby, Vanina Ickx (31) aims to establish herself in the DTM. At the wheel of the A4 DTM, the Belgian, who is currently watching the debut of the Audi R10 TDI at Sebring (USA), wants to prove that her exploits in sportscar racing were by no means accidental.

Ronan Keating denies he's moving to Australia: I'll stay in Ireland with kids
Ronan Keating has rubbished suggestions that he plans to move to Australia following his split from wife Yvonne, 37.
The former Boyzone singer claims he will stay in Ireland in order to be close to his children, Jack, 13, Marie, 11 and Ali, six.
This is despite reports in the Daily Mirror that he was looking to move.
According to the newspaper, Keating is looking to move down under because 'he's become a big star there and enjoys the lifestyle' but the Irishman took to Twitter to give his side of the story.
He wrote: 'I hear some papers are saying I plan on moving to Oz. great country but my kids live in Ireland and so will I. X.'
Keating's presence on the Australian version of The X Factor will no doubt have fueled the rumours, having spent as much as six months a year there since 2010.
A spokesperson for Keating told the Mail Online that he would remain in Dublin for the six months a year he wasn't required for filming in Sydney.
The 35-year-old's relationship breakdown was put down to the distance between the two, which the pair said made it difficult to rebuild their relationship.
It comes after Keating's affair with a backing dancer two years ago.
Former model Yvonne tweeted: 'Sadly, our marriage ended late last year. We kept this news private to give everybody involved time to adjust.Thank you for your support x.'

The next major expansion to EVE Online, known internally at CCP Games as 'Midas', now has a name: Quantum Rise. The winter expansion will bring with it a number of new features and enhancements for the industrial and economic side of EVE, which we've just gotten word about from CCP, as well as confirmation of the rumored "Orca" capital industrial ship:
"Players have great things to look forward to in EVE Online: Quantum Rise. Corporations will be able to set their products apart from the rest by building trust in their goods through customizable storefronts. The backbone of EVE's vibrant economy, industrial ships are being rebalanced and optimized to better suit the needs of haulers and industrialists-including the latest addition to the fleet, a massive capital industrial ship dubbed the Orca. A new certificate system will give a quick and verifiable means to discern a pilot's skill level in trading, gunnery or countless other professions, providing plenty of bragging rights. Meanwhile, the introduction of a medal system allows corporations to distinguish their most valued pilots and honor them for their achievements."
Quantum Rise is being released in stages, some of which we've already seen and experienced, such as Stackless IO and EVE64. But other aspects of the expansion will include weapon linking, continuations of the Trinity graphics update, and other as-yet unannounced features. Keep an eye on our EVE coverage at Massively; we'll be watching closely to see what the Quantum Rise expansion will bring to EVE's players.

Health service structures,management and professional practice: Beyond clinical management
Gray Southon
Australian Health Review
19(1) 2 - 16
Published: 1996
AbstractAt the heart of the operation of the health system is the relationship betweenmanagers and the various professionals who provide clinical services. While thereis an inherent conflict between these two groups, this conflict has been avoided inthe past by the managers playing a supporting rather than a controlling role.However, the current demands of cost-control are placing managers and professionalsinto direct conflict; a situation that many organisations are addressing by puttingclinicians into management roles. This measure has had initial success in somesituations, but it is argued that this success will be limited because clinicaldepartments are not able to address many of the broader issues that affect theperformance of health services. This paper proposes an alternative approach that willenable these broader issues to be effectively addressed, and also reduce the structuralconflict.

Don't sell out our friend Israel!
Tell Bush: 'road map' will only lead to future bloodbath
From Conservative Petitions.com:
From Conservative Petitions.com:
Want to find the path to peace in the Middle East? Don't ask France, Germany, Russia or the United Nations for directions. They're not to be trusted for advice on how best to fight terrorism, either.
Nevertheless, in a shocking reversal of President George W. Bush's stated policies, the U.S. State Department is advancing this suspicious cast of characters to devise and direct a so-called "road map" that supposedly will settle the Palestinian conflict.
Instead of a peaceful solution, this road map ominously leads only to an even greater bloodbath for Israel and oppression by corrupt Arab leadership for the Palestinian people! Its stealthy result would be to eradicate Israel as a Jewish state, and maintain the Palestinian population under the brutal control of terrorist thugs.
Your help is urgently needed to make sure a fatal U-turn in America's alliance with Israel is not the road taken by the Bush Administration. Palestinian "leadership" is already navigating the road map's ominous path, and now Israel is being pressured to agree to its disastrous direction.
It is not too late to turn America and Israel from sure disaster -- if you act now! Sign the petition below urging President George W. Bush and U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell to throw this errant road map out the window and stay our course in defending Israel, our friend and ally. Tell our leaders -- for the safety of our nation and the world -- America must ensure that any pursuit of the Mid-East "peace process" will:
Oppose rewarding murderous Palestinian terrorism with statehood that undermines our own war on terror and -- through dangerous concessions of security, territory and sovereignty -- ultimately fosters renewed Arab aggression against an increasingly vulnerable Israel.
Reconfirm the stated U.S. policies of June 24, 2002, that specified essential pre-conditions for support of Palestinian statehood. These policies stated: 1. that new Palestinian leadership must be "untainted by terror," and 2. all terrorist activities against the Jewish State must have ceased. These policies have been abandoned by Powell's State Department -- and the "road map" erodes America's credibility, debases our enduring national interest, and threatens the survival of Israel.
Withdraw American support from this ploy promoting Arab-Israeli "peace" via the U.N. and the European Union. The "road map" quartet's other three voting members -- Russia, France and Germany --routinely harm U.S. interests, are compromised by their colonialist histories in the region and are hostile to Israel.
Israel must be defended and protected, not betrayed for some suspicious political promise of peace from untrustworthy partners. The so-called "road map" to peace is a highway to the peace of the grave. It is a plan that surely will bring even more death and destruction to Israel and the Palestinian people. Demand President Bush and Secretary Powell set the road map aside -- now! -- and not lead America and Israel astray.

Carter Pushes For Veteran Small Business Loans
To ensure that veterans can continue to run their small businesses, Congressman John Carter (R-TX) has co-sponsored the Veteran-Owned Small Business Promotion Act of 2009.
The act seeks to reinstate a program that provides loans to small businesses for a number of reasons, including: financing plant construction, conversion or expansion; financing the purchase of equipment, facilities or supplies; or supplying working capital.
"Veterans have served our country honorably, and veteran-owned small businesses contribute greatly to our economy, so it is logical that we provide them loans to continue and expand their operations," Carter said. "It's a vital program to many Central Texans."
Small business owners who are veterans and have a disability rated at 10 percent or more are eligible for the loans, which have a maximum amount of $500,000.
"Offering loans to our service members can help our economy grow and can help veterans achieve their business goals," Carter said.
The act also allows the Secretary of Veteran Affairs to subsidize a lender by ½ percent.

Despite weather, Gingrich supporters forecast the win
By Erika email@example.com
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WCIV)-- The rain fell heavy, as did the feeling of anticipation for the outcome of the South Carolina Primary. The inclimate weather didn't stand in the way of Gingrich supporters. They were a force to be reckoned with. One supporter traveled all the way from Laughlin, Nevada. "America will live again with a vote for Gingrich," Barbara Marks said. "I'm 78 years old, I've lived the golden years, I want my grandchildren to live them too." Marks made the drive to downtown Columbia, South Carolina from Nevada all alone, running out of gas along the way and walking to the nearest service station with the oil can she keeps in the back of her car. From old to young they came out in droves, excited to meet others who supported their shared cause, wanting a GOP nominee strong enough to defeat President Obama in the 2012 Presidential Race. "He's going to show the largest contrast with President Obama," said a former employee of Gingrich's. That employee, who requested his name be kept private, road tripped with a group of friends from Washington, D.C."Gingrich is a great guy to work for," he said. "He immediately gave us responsibilities, put the pressure on us to do well in our jobs when it was needed, and most importantly looked at us as family." {}A microphone check tried to beat out the bass thumping from the speakers blaring Journey's "Don't Stop Believing." Super supporter John Sherwood Jones, however, was heard over all of the noise. Shouting "Let's get ready to rumble! Newt! Newt! Newt! Newt!" and capped in a canvas hat covered in Gingrich 2012 stickers, Jones said "What I like most about Gingrich is that he believes in the power of the Constitution." A retired Army officer from Waynesboro, SC, Jones believes that Gingrich's influence from his step-father, a career soldier, will have a positive influence on the military decisions he'll make in office.As he gleamed with support, a larger than life Gingrich 2012 sign was hung behind the podium and the crowd went wild. Raising a sign herself, Aiken, S.C. resident, Bree Saum encouraged Americans to read Gingrich's book "Rediscovering God in America" as that was what sealed her support. Following Saum's words Toby Keith's "American Ride" seemed to circle the supporters together, plenty of which had taken their own American ride to back their choice for GOP Presidential nominee. Unlike the storms that passed through earlier in the day, Gingrich was delayed in walking out on stage. The crowd didn't seem to mind. Patiently waiting, they made plenty of thunder, chanting, "A whole Newt world!" and "We want Newt!" "Lightening" up the room when he eventually did make his entrance, Gingrich thanked his supporters and as if to forecast a storm warning said "Thank you South Carolina, Florida look out."
