"8 strangers. 8 points of view. 1 truth"
Film Synopsis:
During an historic counter-terrorism summit in Spain, the President of the United States is struck down by an assassin's bullet. Eight strangers have a perfect view of the kill, but what did they really see? As the minutes leading up to the fatal shot are replayed through the eyes of each eyewitness, the reality of the assassination takes shape. But just when you think you know the answer, the shattering final truth is revealed. VANTAGE POINT is a mindbending political action-thriller starring Dennis Quaid, Matthew Fox, Academy Award® Winner Forest Whitaker (Best Actor 2006, The Last King of Scotland), with Sigourney Weaver and Academy Award® winner William Hurt (Best Actor 1985, Kiss of the Spider Woman).
My Take:
I have been itching to see Vantage Point since I first the trailer for it at the movies late last year. It had a great looking plot and a stellar cast. I didn't get around to catching it in the theater and looked forward to its release on Blu-ray Disc. After watching it I felt that it was not all that I was expecting. The problem didn't lie in the performances but in the story. The premise wasn't new but I was aware of that and certainly would not hold that against it. I liked the way it opened and immediately set up how it was going to tell the story. A single event was going to be laid out from 8 perspectives, which were obviously similar, with each adding a new piece of a puzzle. The first two acts of the film did a very nice job in building the tension and a bit of suspense. The problem came in the third act when it came to reveal what was really happening, why, and who was behind it. The first problem I had was that the 'why' is never explained as far was the involvement of all of the participants. I don't know much about the running of the Secret Service but I can tell you that what transpired in the film would never happen. The ending was less than satisfying and seemed way too tidy based upon how things began. For the most part I felt entertained and enjoyed the first two thirds of Vantage Point. I just wish the screenplay had dug a little deeper and allowed the stories potential to be realized.
Parental Guide:
The rating is for sequences of intense violence and action, some disturbing images and brief strong language. Parents should be cautioned that there are images of people either dying or dead which might frighten younger viewers.

Vantage Point comes to Blu-ray Disc from Sony featuring 1080p AVC encoded video with an average bitrate of 25 mbps and lossless Dolby TrueHD 5.1 channel sound with an average bitrate of 1.6 mbps.
After seeing the trailer for Vantage Point I had high expectations for its high definition video quality. I am happy to report that they were met as this is a reference quality transfer that simply looks superb. Much of the film is shot outdoors in large sunbathed areas that contain winding streets, older buildings and structures that are loaded with visual texture and intricacies that can look revealing in high definition. There are several interior sequences shot within various vehicles, hotels, and a darkened parking garage. From every perspective detail is simply exquisite. Images are three dimensional with an extended depth of field that made resolution feel almost infinite. Textures were clearly defined with razor sharp lines and persistence of form. Colors were vibrant, punchy and visually enriching. Primaries were slightly over saturated but didn't look unnatural as a result. Complexions among the varying skin tones of the cast members were reproduced with subtle delineation and beautiful tonality. Those with fairer skin looked a little on the pasty side with a hint toward red but lively just the same. Contrast levels were elevated but not to the point of interfering with video quality or white detail perception. It gave the video a punchy and vibrant overtone which I found pleasing. Blacks were solid and looked dynamic enough when viewed with mixed content. Detail in shadows and dark areas onscreen displayed good visible structure and depth. An example of this was in a scene when Dennis Quaid's character runs in to a network news trailer looking for video footage just after the shooting. As the camera's point of view is angled looking up toward him detail is clearly visible in the dark wall and ceiling behind him. This is a whistle clean video transfer that features plenty of eye candy that videophiles are sure to appreciate.
The Dolby TrueHD soundtrack offered dynamic range and crystal clear audio that augmented the heightened sense of tension contained within the film's thematic elements. It blended the front three channels seamlessly with the surrounds to re-create the sounds of the open aired venue where the shooting takes place in the story. The feeling of panic as people are running and screaming to take cover placed you right in the middle of the action. The same was true of quieter moments such as the feeling of riding in a moving vehicle or sitting in a crowded restaurant. The mix successfully created a sound field the carried the multitude of audio effects perfectly placed in the atmosphere being portrayed onscreen. Bass contained within the mix was deep with excellent solidity and impact as it helped reproduce the feeling of crashing cars, explosions and gunfire. Dialogue was clear and concise throughout but felt like it blended in and could have louder during some of the busier action sequences. Overall this is a great soundtrack that provided an invigorating experience that mated perfectly with the source material.
Bonus Features:
The bonus supplements included offer good insightful information from the cast/crew as they discuss the film and production. The Inside perspective and Plotting an assassination pieces offer essentially the same information in rehashed forms. As a whole I found them to good but not overly informative from a production standpoint. The coordinating chaos features looks at the stunts utilized in the film. Total time for the three documentaries is just under 50 minutes. The Vantage Viewer GPS tracker option once enabled in the features menu allows you to track the onscreen movements of each character throughout the film's overlapping timeline. It is a pretty cool feature that worked as advertised although I am not sure that it is something that would want to use your first time watching the movie. The BD-Live features requires an internet connection and a Profile 2.0 player for access. There are two additional features that are in standard definition and have to be downloaded prior to viewing. Only the Trick geography piece was enabled when I tried it. It took roughly 8 minutes to download and another 2 to 3 minutes to begin playback. It was a short feature ( 6 minutes) that was mildly interesting. There were several other BD-Live features that were visible but not enabled yet. I suspect that all will be up and running by release time.

Final Thoughts:
Vantage Point is an above average action based thriller that succeeds at building good moments of tension/suspense sprinkled with excellent pacing and action sequences. The problem is that the last 20 minutes of the film and the ending is a bit of a letdown. Regardless it has enough going for it that most viewers should find it entertaining. Sony has delivered it to Blu-ray Disc day and date with the DVD in a splendid package that features stellar video and excellent audio quality along with bonus features that include Blu-ray Disc Live content. I waited to see this film on Blu-ray Disc and when all was said and done I felt as though it was worth it.

Sri Sri: The 'Art of Living' Foundation has wonderful programs like 'Know Your Child' Workshops which can help parents understand their children better.
Sri Sri:
Sri Sri: I'm realistic about my vision. So far 'The Art of Living' has reached about 151 countries. So many people are learning these techniques today. If the technology of cell phones can reach everywhere in the world, why would techniques & wisdom that make people happy and peaceful not reach every home? They definitely will. We should have a vision to do something that appears impossible and make it possible. It is my habit and hobby!
Sri Sri: Meditate, do service, be part of a service project. You will be close to me and retain this state of being that way.
Sri Sri: First find inner peace, and then you can handle situations. When you are peaceful, then the solutions come. Do you mean problems in relationships? If your question is about conflict between spouses, then there are three options. Advice for women – Don't ask your husband to prove himself. Pump his ego. The whole world might say that he is an empty head, but you as a wife must always praise him. You can tell him, "You are brilliant. It is a different thing that you don't use your bright mind". Never step on his ego. He has to prove himself in the world, but he wants to relax when he comes home. He shouldn't have to prove himself at home. Advice for men - Never step on the emotions of your wife. She will tell you the problems at her home and may complain about her father, brother or relatives. But if you join her bandwagon, she will take a U turn. If she wants to go on a spiritual or religious program, don't stop her. If she wants to shop, give her your credit card. Advice for both - Never question someone's love for you. If someone asks you to prove your love to him or her, how would you feel? It is like a burden. Demand destroys love. Never demand love. Instead of this you say, "Why do you love me so much? I am not worthy of your love". The moment you say this, the other person will melt and start loving you even more, and will even forgive you for your mistakes.
Sri Sri: Yes. In the waking state, you get the best rest and nourishment through knowledge. Dreaming state is deep rest. Sleep is even deeper rest. The fourth state is the meditative state.
Sri Sri: Spiritual voyage can give you the joy and keep you in touch with your nature.
Sri Sri: Why do you want to know everything right away? I don't want you to be bored even after you die! Let's first understand life. We can understand death later.
Sri Sri: Firstly, get out of the victim consciousness. Nobody else can make you come out of it. There is a part of you that no one can touch. When we talk too much about our problems, we begin to enjoy talking about those. Truth and reconciliation is important.
Sri Sri: Everything is made up of atoms. Like furniture is made of wood. The door, the bench, the table, the chair are all made of wood. Wood is in each of these things. But the roles are different. The door cannot be used as a chair, nor can a table be used as a door. Quantum Physics is based on the principle of Advaita (non duality).
Sri Sri: You have all that you need to blossom. Do Sudarshan Kriya, do meditation. In 'Part 2/ Art of Silence' program, participants experience blossoming of their talents and new skills start developing.

Jupiter in Gemini 2012- 2013
Tweet |
Jupiter will move into the sign of Gemini on June 11, 2012 bringing an expansion of communication and its technologies for the coming 12 months. As much as smart-phones continue to wow us with new features, we will be further amazed by rapid and surprising advancements. I am predicting that voice to text technology, now in its infancy, will become a more seriously considered standard feature in phones and computers.
Those who have been disheartened by the fact that young people are growing without the need for handwriting, and are instead dependant on their keyboard, are likely to feel further dismayed as typing becomes less necessary once our computers and devices ask us only to speak. We should see leaps in this phenomenon, as Jupiter in Gemini will speak harmoniously with Uranus in Aries, planet of new technologies. Emailing will also take on new characteristics, as providers expand features and introduce new ways to send electronic messages.
The internet has allowed niche communities to flourish, and there will be no shortage of this trend. There will be a revival of personally tailored technologies and websites, as people will be bombarded with only the information they want and little else. Education should also become more personalized, with several school systems launching unique programs and skills-based training specific to an expanding niche market. This could create over-specialization further down the road, but will make the educational process more inviting and rewarding.
The forecasts below describe the trends for the upcoming year for each of us, while Jupiter blesses a different part of our lives individually.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Even the most introverted of your sign will find reason to be out and about. There are plenty of random interactions and enlightening conversations with friends and others in your neighborhood. You'll find yourself in love with the area you live in. Your mind is especially bright, as you take on new skills with ease. It's a good year to write that book you've been planning. Consider short courses and workshops that introduce you to new people and information. In love, you are in the mood to talk it out. Whether single or attached, the bond must have a mental connection if it is to hold your interest.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The Universe has been gently leading on a journey this last year. You've been encouraged to trust your passions, believe in possibilities, and allow fortunate closures to take place. Sometimes, Jupiter has to leave your sign before you fully appreciate the gifts that were bestowed, for the understandings you've had will be with you for years to come. Now, you translate your self-belief into increased financial status. You are being encouraged to take a good look at what you think you are worth with an empowering lens. In love, the person who raises your esteem is the one worth being with.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You are ready to launch with optimistic plans. Where your heart is, so are your blessings. This is the time to be open to a more optimistic vision of your life and to believe in your potential to achieve it. Sometimes Jupiter in your sign can bring endings that, in hindsight, you are grateful for. What takes root now has the potential to blossom for many years to come. Trust yourself, your interests, and what makes you happy. This is a classic symbol for signing a power deal that takes your message to the masses. In love, you trust yourself above all else. If a connection doesn't feel right, that's enough to let it go.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): No matter how lofty your aims have been, with faith in your heart and the omens on your side, you see your way to an inspiring achievement. The year is filled with many mystical moments, affirming there is a loving hand guiding your life however you choose to define it. The best way to use this vibration is to actively cultivate some spiritual practice, like meditation or yoga that encourages you to experience union. There can be an escapist tendency, but also the impetus to heal any addiction issues. Connect to spirit now, because a year from now, you'll carry that faith into a new life. In love, the unspoken connection of potential soul-mates is the only one that matters.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your friendships take on a new life, as you find renewed companionship and camaraderie in groups. You may meet lots of new people now. They will likely be casual acquaintances, but you'll enjoy their company immensely. A part of you is determined not to sell out, however you define that, and you're perfectly happy to go your own way to do what you love as an independent agent. Your greatest prosperity will come when you focus on your goals and achieving the career aims that matter to you. In love, a friend may very well become a lover, or you rekindle the friendship you have with your partner.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It's a big career year for you, with many opportunities to move up the ladder and see success find you. Some Virgos will use this to pursue optimistic changes with a practical bent. Others might find themselves inspired to go in brand new directions. When you consider the big goals you desire to accomplish, you unleash magic. Many Virgos will take this blessing and use it to get a job, or otherwise make practical progress. You'll win in any interview setting as authority figures will be eager to see the best in you. In love, shared goals matter most. The person who can help you achieve your aims will also claim your heart.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Jupiter's move into Gemini works especially harmoniously with your sign, encouraging you to see yourself and your place in the world more expansively. Matters of higher education go especially well, whether that includes graduating or returning to school. Similarly, the funds you need to support your credential seeking aims have a way of being there for you, especially from scholarships, fellowships, and grants. You will likely catch the travel bug and have a desire to explore, or take on a new adventure that takes you to new lands or new philosophical ideas. In love, your soul is stirred when you're with people who encourage you to see more of the world. Attractions to people of other ethnicities are likely, in love and in friendship.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your finances will get a boost, especially when you are seeking funding for your dreams. Your relationship with banks, insurance companies, and income tax agents are set to go exceptionally well. This is the year to make your requirements known and to receive benefits, bursaries, and loans with exceptionally good terms. You come to know you are deeply cared for, emotionally and financially, by others and a kind Universe. Let people show you they care. In love, your romantic life lights up. Scorpios in an established relationship will find new moments of bonding. For those single, only the most soul-stirring attractions will do.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You start one of the best cycles for partnership. Whether love or business, you have an uncanny ability to connect with the perfect people who can move you towards a more rewarding life. You can make mutually profitable partnerships with ease. Your most prosperous ideas arise when in one on one conversation. With your ruling planet opposite your sign this year, you can see your dreams. Even when they feel far, you are willing to work for them, largely because of the support of others. In love, if you have hoped for a new love, or just a breath of fresh air in an established bond, you'll have plenty of moments that lead you to believe in the power of partnership.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Work and employment improves notably, as you find your workplace environment becomes a much friendlier place. The people you want to leave might make a gentle exit, or you'll find new people arriving with a lively spirit and fresh ideas. There is support in the workspace, both for your shared work related goals or on more personal levels. Those Caps looking for work have the chance to transfer to, or find, work environments that foster your best. Your health gets a positive boost. You'll see the most effective and fun actions you can take to empower your overall feeling of well-being, giving you the chance to make effective and welcome changes in habits. In love, look around at your gym or the coffee shop you frequent everyday. Those attached will find their partner a great buddy in any fitness regimen.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A spirit of fun and delight returns. You sense that the most meaningful occurrences for this year of your life will happen only when you relax and enjoy yourself. Be sure to buy your lottery tickets, especially in July. A windfall could land in your lap as a result of a well-played hunch. If you are hoping to have children, you could find yourself delighted with news of a new life. Whatever you consider your baby, whether person or project, gets much of your time, creative energy, and provides many moments of sheer joy. You move closer to a feeling of fulfillment. The needed spirit for love to flourish opens up when a lighthearted curiosity returns. You can be especially flirtatious, as you feel confident in your ability to attract and hold interest.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You are considering matters of home. Whether it is the physical space you live in, or the skin you are in, you'll have a desire to make it more comfortable. Troublesome roommates could leave, while wonderfully compatible ones enter. If you are looking to buy or sell, you are in a great time to get a favorable deal to your liking, and find a place you love. You might be in the mood to redecorate, with an eye towards comfort and inspiration. Your living space becomes a more inviting place. Home based businesses are especially blessed, as you see an expansion and more activity. Considering what you need to feel safe, both in your heart and in your home, makes this year an important one. In love, people from your past or those associated with your childhood place are especially likely to make a connection with you. You feel rooted in the common bonds you share with your partner.

I'd been browsing this website for ages before I took the plunge and bought one of their lovely clips. I've used it in my hair for the two weeks since I've had it and am really really pleased with it. I need to keep my hair up and tidy throughout a 12 hour shift as I work in uniform. I can't be attending to my hair all the time and with my new clip I haven't had to. Hair done in 2 ticks and comfortable for the whole day. The clip arrived the very next day and beautifuly packaged. Stonebridge really seem to value their customers and I have been very happy with this company.

Steverson, filling in as manager for Class A Stockton at Modesto, had run out of pitchers in a June 23 game that Modesto won 7-6 in 18 innings—a 5-hour, five-minute contest.
League president Charlie Blaney announced Monday both a fine of an undisclosed amount and Steverson's ban from the Ports' dugout for a year. Blaney called Steverson's intent "to protect his players from injury" but also an "error in judgment by instructing his pitcher to advance three base runners via intentional balk for the purpose of expediting the end of the game."

First Impressions is an Aveda spa and salon offering a potpourri of hair services, body-care treatments, and spa therapy. Embark on a journey to noodle-nest stylishness with a haircut ($32 and up for women, $22 and up for men) or a special-occasion updo ($60 and up). All hair services are accompanied by a consultation, an Aveda stress-relieving treatment, and an herbal shampoo. If you'd rather not have hair, First Impressions can take it away with sugaring or Aveda plant wax ($35 and up for legs, $10 and up for chins). Sad sections of skin can be rejuvenated with an eye-zone wrap ($25) or a 30-minute pure-focus facial ($25), complete with makeup application. A manicure ($24) or pedicure ($42 and up) will curb uncontrolled nail growth before your hands and feet tie themselves into a hopelessly twisted knot of keratin. To calm anxious muscles, opt for an hour-long relaxation massage ($50) or hot-stone therapy ($80).
At All About You Day Spa, a staff of licensed professionals sooth body and mind with a variety of skin and body services such as massage, facials, microdermabrasion, spray-tanning, nails, and special occasion make-up. Owner Brandi Huett is a graduate of the Alexandria School of Scientific Therapeutics, where she studied Pfrimmer deep-muscle therapy. The technique aims to soften taut muscle fibers, enhance circulation, and promote cellular healing. Her team also personalizes facials with an array of BeautiControl products, pampers tootsies with organic apple-cider vinegar soaks, and provides nutrition-counseling services and free make-up consultations.
White vertical blinds, ivory wicker seating, and decorative metal wall hangings evoke a homey feeling inside Timeless Hair Studio. While patrons relax in black salon chairs, friendly stylists cut and color strands and slather Moroccan Oil and Schwarzkopf products onto manes. They also remove unsightly lip fuzz and unruly brow hairs using warm wax.
Behind Enemy Lines equips customers with the treatments and advice to fend off the signs of age and the elements. The staff helps craft a unique response to each crisis, fighting fine lines with lactic-acid chemical peels and calling on blue-light therapy to ward off acne. The scents of aromatherapy oils drift from massage rooms, where gentle kneads bolster oxygen circulation in skin cells, and body wraps help shave off inches and combat cellulite. Aestheticians begin facial treatments with a thorough skin analysis, which draws positive attention to one's head even when it isn't stuck between impressively narrow banisters.
The poet Masaoka Shiki memorialized his infamous journey to Abstract Hair and Nail Studio in numerous haiku. The recent anthology Hangnail: The Poetry of Masaoka Shiki compiles many of these works, one of which is reprinted here:

Maria wrote: "...I think he did make quite clear that the hatred of everything Russian still continues..."
Such a blanket statement completely obscures reality. Latvians like a lot of things Russian, from literature (a translation of Turgenev's Накануне was just published, for example) to theater (the venerable Russian Drama Theater in Rīga is being reconstructed, and the Latvian director Alvis Hermanis is well-known here and in Moscow, working among other things with Russian classics) to pelmeni and dubious Russian TV series.
What many Latvians don't like are Russians -- really homines sovietici -- who cannot or do not speak the national language and feel they retain a conquerors' right to force Russian upon us, and those who otherwise disrespect the culture of the country they live in.
When I left Latvia in 1996, the passports for non-citizens were brown if I'm not mistaken, for citizens they were blue. Can you imagine the humiliation? Might have as well stamped their foreheads with 'Not really a person.' So what do you expect in return - undying gratitude and respect for the country that denies these people some basic human rights. And naturalisation? I mean what am I, a vegetable? I just feel really sorry for all those Russians for whom Latvia is their only home and they can't leave. I always thought that life is too short,and to waste it on a country where the most important thing about you as a human being is whether or not your parents have been conceived in Latvia before September 1939, would be sad. And just one more reason for leaving.
Pēteris Cedriņš said...
Non-citizen status doesn't indicate that one isn't considered a person -- non-citizens are permanent residents and enjoy most of the rights citizens enjoy, these rights guaranteed by law. There are indeed numerous distinctions between citizens' and non-citizens' rights -- the civil service is only open to citizens, for example -- the most significant distinction being that non-citizens lack voting rights.
Citizenship entails not only rights but also responsibilities, and few countries grant it to everyone automatically (there are jus solis and jus sanguinis, and mixtures of the two approaches -- children born to non-citizens after Latvia regained its independence do not need to naturalize to obtain citizenship). The UK now has a language requirement for naturalization, too -- so does Russia, in fact. Latvia is committed to human rights and abides by the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights.
As Edward Lucas responded to the 2006 Amnesty International report on Estonia in The Economist:
"Estonia, like Latvia next door, decided to give these uninvited guests a free choice. They could go back to Russia. They could stay but adopt Russian citizenship. They could take local citizenship (assuming they were prepared to learn the language). Or they could stay on as non-citizens, able to work but not to vote.
"Put like that, it may sound fair. But initially it prompted howls of protest against 'discrimination', not only from Russia but from Western human-rights bodies. The Estonians didn't flinch. A 'zero option'—giving citizenship to all comers—would be a disaster, they argued, ending any chance of restoring the Estonian language in public life, and of recreating a strong, confident national identity.
"They were right."
Non-citizens were *never* citizens of the Republic of Latvia -- they were citizens of the USSR, now defunct. Those who complain that they should hold citizenship because they were "born in Latvia" 1940-1991 either neglect or deny the fact that Latvia was occupied; they were born in occupied territory (and Latvia was occupied in June 1940, not September 1939, by the way).
Vegetables can't be naturalized, Maria -- naturalization requires some personal effort in every country. Compare, for instance, Switzerland's stringent requirements to Latvia's -- but note that the Swiss Confederation wasn't under foreign, totalitarian rule when the applicants got there. Bear in mind that a substantial minority of the population here opposed the very existence of the Republic of Latvia. Some were citizens, like Tatyana Zhdanok -- taking advantage of the democracy she tried to nip in the bud, she became the only ethnic Russian in the European Parliament.
I can sympathize with some of those who were relegated to non-citizen status; I think those who took a risk and registered with the Citizens' Congress should have been granted citizenship because of their clear commitment to independence, for example. I also think that the "windows" for naturalization should have been abolished earlier. I'm quite familiar with the reasons for resentment, some valid, that many Russophones profess. If those resentments are so overwhelming that you consider making any commitment to Latvia a waste, however, I don't think you deserve citizenship through naturalization, which is essentially a form of adoption. A person asking for citizenship should show a degree of integration -- some knowledge of the national language, and some familiarity with the nation's history. To my mind, a familiarity with our history would give you some understanding of why we have the language and citizenship policies we do, even if you don't agree with them, which is your right -- but I see no such understanding in what you write.

Title: | 'Ik ben zo blij dat ik hier ben' (translation) 'I am so glad that I am here' |
Authors: | Femia, Angela |
Keywords: | house home memory place |
Issue Date: | 5-Nov-2007 |
Abstract: | This paper is a brief consideration of the nature of my art practice. It seeks to discover the importance of memory to the spatial, emotional and political constructs that inform my understanding of place. Within the broader context of the Australian immigrant experience, history and personal memories are explored by looking into the notion of domestic space as embodied by the house and its relationship to the home. The female role in the family is discussed in terms of the commonly understood stereotypes associated with home in western society. By traversing a range of ideas from philosophical and scientific domains, with a focus on contemporary art, the significance of memory is highlighted as the thread that holds these notions together. |

El sistema de información contable del Hospital San Julián de Albacete entre 1838 y 1859. (Accounting information at the Hospital San Julian in Albacete among 1838 and 1859)
En el presente trabajo abordamos el estudio del sistema hospitalario de la provincia de Albacete, concretamente del Hospital de San Julián durante el período comprendido entre 1838 y 1859, cuando su gestión corría a cuenta de la Junta Municipal de Beneficencia. Hemos analizado la contabilidad llevada en dicho establecimiento, basada aún en un sistema de "cargo y data", a pesar de que hay constancia de anotaciones por partida doble desde finales del siglo XIII. In this work, we study the hospital system in the province of Albacete, particularly San Julián Hospital in the period from 1838 to 1859 when it was managed by the Municipal Council of Charity. We have analysed the accounting of this institution which was based on the so-called "cargo y data" system, although there are records of double-entry bookkeeping since the end of the 13th century.Download Info

Friday, March 15, 2013 - 5:21 AM
A Cincinnati man who was pulled over on I-75 in Hancock County and found to have drugs in his car last October will represent himself in court. The Courier reports 39-year-old Marcus Coleman has submitted numerous court filings from jail since his arrest. Judge Joseph Niemeyer has urged Coleman to reconsider, and has appointed attorney John McMahon as stand-by counsel in the case.
Coleman has already sued the county jail for "mental anguish" from poor food and also for a lack of adequate legal text books. He claims he was pulled over because of "racist, deceptive enforcement techniques." A jury trial is scheduled for May 20.

Robert Browning (1812-1889 / London / England)
From 'Pauline'
O God, where does this tend—these struggling aims?
What would I have? What is this 'sleep', which seems
To bound all? can there be a 'waking' point
Of crowning life? The soul would never rule—
It would be first in all things—it would have
Its utmost pleasure filled,—but that complete
Commanding for commanding sickens it.
The last point I can trace is, rest beneath
Some better essence than itself—in weakness;
This is 'myself'—not what I think should be
And what is that I hunger for but God?
My God, my God! let me for once look on thee
As tho' nought else existed: we alone.
And as creation crumbles, my soul's spark
Expands till I can say, 'Even from myself
I need thee, and I feel thee, and I love thee;
I do not plead my rapture in thy works
For love of thee—or that I feel as one
Who cannot die—but there is that in me
Which turns to thee, which loves, or which should love.'
Why have I girt myself with this hell-dress?
Why have I laboured to put out my life?
Is it not in my nature to adore,
And e'en for all my reason do I not
Feel him, and thank him, and pray to him—now?
Can I forgo the trust that he loves me?
Do I not feel a love which only ONE…
O thou pale form, so dimly seen, deep-eyed,
I have denied thee calmly—do I not
Pant when I read of thy consummate deeds,
And burn to see thy calm pure truths out-flash
The brightest gleams of earth's philosophy?
Do I not shake to hear aught question thee?
If I am erring save me, madden me,
Take from me powers and pleasures—let me die.
Ages, so I see thee: I am knit round
As with a charm, by sin and lust and pride,
Yet tho' my wandering dreams have seen all shapes
Of strange delight, oft have I stood by thee—
Have I been keeping lonely watch with thee
In the damp night by weeping Olivet,
Or leaning on thy bosom, proudly less—
Or dying with thee on the lonely cross—
Or witnessing thy bursting from the tomb!

When you have severe blockage of your arteries — especially if you've already had a TIA or stroke related to the blockage — it's best to open up the artery and remove the blockage. There are two ways to do this:

That's a very cute dog is it yours? I have a matt we found we named her Stray well that's what we called her because my dad didn't want to keep her but started to answer to it and here she is seven years later. :)
No this is actually a stray dog I found. :) There are a lot of stray dogs similar to this one in parts of Europe and Asia.
Do you know what kind it is? We haven't been able to really figure out really any dog in her.
I think that it may be a Shiba Inu, but I can't know for sure...

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Gov. Mike Pence and a group of other Republican governors are planning to talk together about what's working in their states.
Pence, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will participate in an Aspen Institute discussion moderated by biographer Walter Isaacson. The Thursday talk is also being coordinated by the Republican Governors Association.
Pence will be the rookie in the group, having served roughly half a year in office. The Aspen Institute says on its website the group will talk about "important social issues affecting their communities," but does not specify an issue.
Last year's Republican panel focused on gun control.

Morgan Rielly, D
Birthplace: West Vancouver, British Colombia, 3/9/94
Bio: 6'0, 190 lbs., L
Moose Jaw Warriors, WHL
Rankings: ISS – 7; CSS – 5 (NA)
The Skinny: Despite a season-stunting ACL injury he suffered in November, defenseman Morgan Rielly is perhaps the best pure puck-mover in the draft and has the poise and creativity to be an offensive star from the blue line in the NHL.
It's an unfortunate story we've seen too many times this year: A talented top prospect loses significant time due to injury. In November, Morgan Rielly, Moose Jaw's dynamic seventeen year-old puck-mover was lost for the all but a few games of season thanks to an ACL tear.
It's too bad, especially given the start Rielly had: In eighteen games he had eighteen points, putting him up among the top blueline producers in the CHL, let alone only the draft-eligibles. When he did return (almost miraculously – for one playoff-series), he continued to impress, scoring six points in five games as the Warriors finally fell in the WHL playoffs.
Rielly's skillset includes excellent mobility, elite playmaking skills and top-notch vision. He can dangle through crowds impressively (certainly for a blueliner) and set-up teammates and score with aplomb. He's a dynamic offensive threat and one truly capable of racking up points from the point.
The seventeen year-old has a low center of gravity that keeps him balanced while in possession of the puck and is very patient, waiting for the lanes to open up. His pacing is excellent: Backing off defenders with bursts of speed then slowing things down to gain time and space.
Putting the puck on Rielly's stick in his defensive zone almost ensures a successful clear: The Vancouver native doesn't buckle under heavy pressure and makes quality passes even when harried effectively by forecheckers. His hockey-sense is extremely well refined and enables him to react to changes in pressure quickly and effectively, finding holes in zones and backing off in the right circumstances.
Of course, as with many defenders of like style, Rielly's defensive play is often called into question. He'll often play more as a 'rover' than a defenseman, jumping into the attack freely and occasionally leaving his teammates out to dry. His size isn't ideal and questions about his future mobility (following the ACL tear) haven't gone away. He needs to build strength and get healthy pre-Combine to assuage these fears and assure himself a position as a top-ten selection.
Still, his defensive game isn't atrocious (in fact it's better than most attack-minded defensemen are able to muster at this age). He has an active stick and his solid hockey IQ allows him to read plays effectively and step into lanes and close gaps.
In most years, Rielly's injury would have probably cost him a five to ten-position slide down the Draft board. However, his early-season successes combined with the numerous other injuries suffered by other top prospects will keep his stock in the top half of the draft. Given the importance of the skillset Rielly possesses in the 'modern' NHL, he'll likely end up somewhere between picks six and ten.
Ideal Fits: Teams looking for that ever-elusive elite puck-moving defenseman: Tampa Bay, Anaheim, New York Islanders, Winnipeg, and Minnesota.
Why Your Team Will Take Him: Because aside from injury concerns, he's the premier offensive defenseman in this draft class.
Why Your Team Will Pass on Him: Because those injury concerns won't go away; because he lacks size, because blueliners' offensive projectability is a crapshoot.
Strengths: Playmaking, Puck-Moving, Mobility, Vision, Offensive Acumen, Poise, Hockey IQ, Stick-Checking
Weaknesses/Concerns: Physicality, Strength, Durability, Size
Projection: First-Pairing Offensive Defenseman (15g, 65p potential)
Predicted 2012 NHL Draft Range: First Round, 4-10
Overall Rank: 8
N.A. Rank: 6
WHL Rank: 3

Product Description
Return to the Bible as it was before chapters and verses. The Books of the Bible, NIV is a revolutionary new presentation of Scripture that strips away centuries of artificial formatting, leaving behind nothing but pure Bible text. The result is a hardcover Bible unlike any other available today—and more like the original Scriptures.
The Bible isn't a single book. It's a collection of many books that were written, preserved and gathered together so that they could be shared with new generations of readers. The Bible is an invitation to you to first view the world in a new way, and then to become an agent of the world's renewal. The Books of the Bible, NIV helps you have a more meaningful encounter with the sacred writings and to read with more understanding, without centuries of added formatting, so that you can take your place more readily within this story of new creation.
- Chapter and verse numbers have been removed from the text
- The books are presented according to the internal divisions that we believe their authors have indicated
- A single-column setting is used to present the text more clearly and naturally, and to avoid disrupting the intended line breaks in poetry
- Footnotes, section headings and any other additional materials have been removed from the pages of the sacred text
- Individual books that later tradition divided into two or more parts are put back together again.
- The books are arranged in an order that helps you understand the Bible more completely

all you have to do is just activate it then activate your old phone, you wont have to take the phone out of the box or anything like that.
How much is your voice plan per month? If you are on a voice plan that costs less than $49.99 a month; you are not eligible for an annual upgrade. Found that out a couple of months ago. I switched to the 450 minute plan back in 11/09 when I bought my Droid, since I was only using ~300 minutes per month, and lost my annual upgrade eligibility.

Pennies on the dollar are paid to these citizens. Unwanted firearms can be sold at a gun dealier on consignment and get the fair market value. I wonder how many antique and curio firearms actually make it to the 'destryoer' department. Since no questions are asked, how will the Feds who keep a record of every legal firearm sale know it was destroyed? If gang violence wants to be curbed, enforce over crowding, put more policy on patrol instead of incident management.

Well, said, Brad. If you really are interested in getting rid of firearm, check out Calguns. There is a active wanted section on that website. Fair, market prices.

(And if you don't want to make the commitment, there's always the convenience of clip-on fringe.) Whatever the case may be for you, here are 10 different stars wearing a variety of banging looks. Which ones inspire you most? Source: WireImage, Getty Totally Tousled What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Agyness Deyn knows how to do funky right, and her totally tousled bangs are the perfect way to add interest to a short style.

Source: WireImage 4 / 10 Dressed Up What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Bangs frame the face, so why not frame the bangs? Florence Welch is known for her signature vibrant copper strands and rolled-under bangs, but what makes them stand out even more here is the way they're highlighted with trendy braids.

This is some serious fringe she's sporting, but it looks gorgeous with her similarly blunt hairstyle and multidimensional color.

Grab your diver's bell (the one behind the bar is not for customer use) and delve into the subsea world of Underwater Pub. Show up around 20:30 on a Tuesday or 21:30 on a Thursday and you may just find yourself submersed in a deep blue C – for that's when singers from the Norwegian Opera and students from the Academy of Opera step up on shoal and belt out songs for free to the resident subaquatic fauna.
Underwater Pub has provided a stage for established and burgeoning opera talents for decades. In that time, it doesn't seem to have changed its tune a bit.
When you enter Underwater Pub you are immediately presented with the choice of heading down towards greater depths or up towards shallower waters. Walls and ceilings are painted in a murky bluish-green (the bartender I asked called it peacock green) to add to the aquatic illusion. The seabed is brown and wet, depending on the number of drinks spilled.
Underwater Pub actually lets you bring your own (sea)food. At the bar, you'll find a selection of menus for food joints nearby. Choose something from one of the menus, order and pay the bartender and Bob's your uncle; They'll place the order for you and bring it to your table, so you can relax and enjoy a magical, musical evening.
You shouldn't miss it. Besides, if anyone ever asks you if went to the opera in Oslo do you want to say no?

The new simulator is better than using abandon houses, which is what firefighters had previously used for practice, according to Hamden Fire Chief David Berardesca.

A Job For Hitler Lookalikes
New York's Daily News had fun writing about this job opportunity. "Finally -- there's hope for people who look like Adolf Hitler... [h]aving that toothbrush mustache and the look of a megalomaniac could now earn you some cold hard cash."
As AOL Jobs has reported, lookalike work can be quite lucrative. British waitress Michaela Weeks earned 300,000 pounds ($483,000) as of December 2012 impersonating Britney Spears. She's even posed as Spears in music videos. Another former British waitress, Heidi Agan, recently changed jobs to appear as Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince William. She's able to charge $1,000 an hour to impersonate Middleton at events.
The Craigslist ad said shooting for the series will take place in September on the East Coast of the U.S. and then in Germany in October. The docudrama is expected to be six hours long, and will track Hitler throughout his adult life, from his days as a soldier in World War I to his experience leading Germany during World War II.
While one Hitler was more than enough, Stephen David Entertainment might be open to hiring multiple actors to portray Hitler from age 25 to 56. The company is also seeking actors to play Hitler's foils, Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill.
Casting actors is central to the work of production companies, and the ad for a Hitler lookalike plays it totally straight, despite the kind of fun that others have had with the idea of it, perhaps most famously Mel Brooks in "The Producers."
Brooks' 1968 movie -- and eventual Broadway musical -- tells the story of a Broadway producer who seeks to steal money from investors by purposely producing a flop. So he agrees to stage a musical called "Springtime for Hitler," which looks back fondly on Nazi Germany. And he casts a hippie to play the starring role. (The character's name is Lorenzo St. DuBois, but as he tells the casting directors, "my friends call me L.S.D.")
