the house of people is also the parliament of romania

A couple of nitpicks:
The name of the former Romanian dictator is commonly spelled Ceausescu, not Chaushescu (although the pronunciation sounds similar).
Dom Narodov sounds suspiciously Russian, the Romanian language, however, is not related to Russian, but Latin. - said...
Further to Dom Narodov: in Romanian, the building is called Casa Poporului.

Cleaning CCD Chip in DMK, DBK, and DFK Camera Methods:
- Compressed air from air blower - Compressed air is usually sufficient to remove most foreign bodies from the surface of the CCD chip. We recommend using an air-blower, such as from Edmund Optics, and not compressed air from an aerosol. Compressed air from an aerosol may contain other chemicals (propellant, water, oil etc.) which could damage the surface of the CCD.
- Hama Lenspen MiniPro II - A company called Hama manufactures a product, which is ideally suited to the task: Lenspen MiniPro II. It is available online and from most well-stocked photography stores. One side of the pen has a brush on it, while the other, a small cleaning surface. The later is suited to efficiently removing dirt and fingerprints.
- Microfiber cleaning cloth - Although a microfiber cleaning cloth is a very viable option, it can be tricky to get the cloth onto the surface of the CCD chip through the camera's mount opening. A cotton swab (UK: Q-Tip) can help here.
- 90% pure alcohol - This can be purchased from most chemists. Never use Isopropanol, as it draws moisture from the air, which results in streaks on the surface of the CCD.
- Alcohol substitute - Instead of pure alcohol, Methanol or a liquid called Eclipse can be used (Eclipse is essentially Methanol). However, we do not recommend this approach, as Methanol is highly poisonous.
- Combination of all the above - Of course, all approaches can be combined! Do not worry about touching the glass in front of the CCD chip. It is pretty robust. Only by rubbing glass, sand or diamond on the surface can it be scratched.

"The Duellists"
Rated PG
When one hears the name Ridley Scott, any number of his blockbusters come to mind: "Gladiator," "Alien," "Blade Runner" and "American Gangster." But his directorial debut was a period piece filmed on a low budget, "The Duellists."
Based on a Joseph Conrad short story, the movie deals with the ongoing conflict of two officers in Napoleon's army, D'Hubert (Keith Carradine) and Feraud (Harvey Keitel).
In that time, questions of honor were taken seriously and over the years the two officers dueled. To explain the reasons for these challenges most certainly would take away from the mystique of the movie.
What is most interesting is the intimate filming style Scott uses in exposing his characters. Because "The Duellists" had a minimal budget, creative locations and shot selections were imperative to achieve the desired effect.
One might not have predicted the evolution of Ridley Scott's career by viewing his first feature but his filmmaking genius is apparent in "The Duellists."
"Burn After Reading"
Rated R
The Coen brothers are unpredictable. If you've been a fan over the years, you're no doubt familiar with their dramas ("No Country for Old Men" and "Miller's Crossing") and comedies ("Raising Arizona" and "The Big Lebowski") and their most famous film "Fargo," that doesn't fit easily in either category.
Where does "Burn After Reading" fit in? It's mostly comedy, at least for the first half of the movie. Brad Pitt's characterization of an inept athletic trainer is integral to moving the action along and there's no shortage of star power. George Clooney, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Tilda Swinton lend their talent to the jumbled plot line.
The R rating is earned in the first two minutes and the dialogue is filled with profanity, so be prepared (or not) to be barraged. The Coen brothers are an acquired taste so if you're already a fan, you'll know what to expect. If you haven't seen any of the movies listed here, rent "Fargo." It's the best of the lot.
"Manhattan Melodrama"
It may be a stretch to list "Manhattan Melodrama" as a classic, but the movie is interesting on several different levels. The film opens with the tragedy of the General Slocum in 1904. Even though the scene of the steamship fire that claimed more than 1,000 lives is hardly historically accurate, it does establish the relationship between two boys from the neighborhood who are left orphaned by the event.
Blackie (played as a boy by Mickey Rooney/later by Clark Gable) plays the odds in life. As a gambler/gangster, he is the antithesis of his "brother," Jim played by William Powell. Blackie's girl, Eleanor (Myrna Loy) didn't take long to figure out that she was with the wrong man and, supposedly with Blackie's blessing, marries Jim. Jim and Blackie remained friends in spite of working opposite angles of the legal system.
"Manhattan Melodrama" is produced by David O. Selznick (of "Gone With the Wind") and won an Academy Award in 1935 for Original Story-Writing. The movie's claim to fame came at a screening in Chicago in 1934. John Dillinger was shot outside the theater after attending a screening. While you're watching the plot unfold with all its twists and turns depicting good versus evil, good guys versus bad buys, imagine the irony of Dillinger watching Blackie as he goes on trial for murder.

G20 fail to ease tensions in markets
PARIS (AP) - A pledge to stabilize markets from the world's leading economies failed to reassure investors Friday, and stocks were falling sharply again, a day after fears over the global economy had sent them skidding.
Finance ministers from the G20 countries meeting in the U.S. capital pledged Thursday to "take all necessary actions to preserve the stability of the banking systems and financial markets" and to make sure banks have the cash they need to pay their day-to-day expenses.
The G20 statement wasn't much - it mostly reiterated pledges made earlier - but the show of solidarity was enough to stem the losses in Europe ahead of an expected modest advance in the U.S. Asian shares, however, continued to fall sharply, with South Korea's Kospi index posting a whopping 5.7 percent decline.
"The selling pressure in Europe had eased overnight but stocks are pushing deeper into the red as the morning progresses and markets remain heavily depressed on the year suggesting policymakers have their work cut out for them," said Carl Campus, an analyst at BMO Capital Markets.
In Europe, France's CAC-40 was down 2.6 percent at 2,710 while the DAX in Germany was 3 percent lower at 5,010. The FTSE index of leading British shares was 1.7 percent lower at 4,955.
Wall Street was set for further falls at the open following Thursday's slide. Dow futures were down 0.7 percent at 10,572 while the broader Standard & Poor's 500 futures fell 0.8 percent to 1,114.
While worrying about the global economy following the U.S. Federal Reserve's warning earlier this week that the U.S. economy faced sizable downside risks and a raft of downbeat European and Asian economic indicators, investors continue to keep a close watch on developments in Greece.
"The markets are eagerly awaiting a resolution or at the minimum, a more rigid strategy to reduce Greeces debt liabilities," said Giles Watts, head of equities at City Index.
Bank stocks have led the way down in recent days as investors fret over their potential exposure to the debts of Greece. Those fears have become more acute as the markets increasingly price in the likelihood of a Greek default.
Athens has had a series of meetings with its creditors this week to try to avoid that, but it's unclear whether it will be able to dig itself out of its debt hole, even with the help of billions from the European Union and the International Monetary Fund.
Those concerns have knocked confidence in the euro over the past week or two. After Thursday's plunge it was trading a little bit steadier, down 0.1 percent at $1.3458.
Several analysts think the current respite in the markets was unlikely to last since recent economic data from Europe - and even powerhouse China - has been weak and could indicate that some major economies are headed back into recession.
Jean-Pierre Jouyet, the head of the French market authority, the AMF, told France Inter radio that "the situation is very, very worrying. We are in a worldwide situation of crisis," pointing to debt in Japan, "imbalances" in the United States, and Europe's sovereign debt troubles.
"We must take urgent measures on the international level," he said.
Joaquin Almunia, who runs the department in the EU's executive Commission that has to clear bank bailouts, suggested earlier this week that one of those measures may be to extend crisis rules that make it easier for governments to rescue failing lenders. He also said that even banks that passed stress tests this summer may need to raise more money.
Earlier in Asia, Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 1.4 percent to 17,668.83 after losing nearly 5 percent the day before. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 index fell 1.6 percent to 3,903.20.
South Korean shares took a large hit, with the Kospi tumbling 5.7 percent to 1,697.44. Mainland China's Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.4 percent to 2,433.16. Japan's market was closed for a holiday.
Oil prices were down again alongside equities - benchmark crude fell $2.10 to $78.41.

Loved how they wanted to punch Paula in the face, epic plot. Could've used a couple more facial movements at time, but otherwise it was great!
Rated 3 / 5 stars March 4, 2009
i've always REALLY hated tom goes to the mayor. Just whats the point of wathcing paper figures barely move? Anyways, it started out funny, but then just went down hill. But it was OK and not a waste of my time.
Rated 2 / 5 stars March 4, 2009
tom goes to the mayor

Rated 5 / 5 stars March 4, 2009
oh dude
That was fucking sweet. Seriously. Loved the style, nice voice acting.
Great job.
Rated 4 / 5 stars March 4, 2009
Sorta funny, except celebs..
they were extra sorta funny, "chill chill" =D. The only good facial features, i thought, came from the doosh family and the celebs. The dads face looked too happy though, maybe try to get him to have less fun with it. And the two boys, well. The camera guy was really really meghh with the facials and the other kid was alright, he just wasnt as good.
Besides that very good, nicely long, and decent comedy =]
Scene transition was top notch :D

No question that Guerreo made an idiotic mistake. However it's just fucked up becayse it's not like he's not licensed. It's not like he's a criminal or like he even has malicious intentions outside of boxing. I'd be surprised if he did. I wish him a slap on the wrist and a hard warning. But knowing the way things work in my city this guy is facing a vacation at Rikers Island. And when he loses May 4 presuming that the fight carries on it'll just be that much worse when he comes to terms with the fact that God does not favor anyone. Throughout this hard situation now we will really see if Robert is a devout Christian. His reaction to everything going on around him will speak volumes of his character. I'm rooting for him to get over this hump. But I just hope he himself is humbled by this situation and that he acts with a greater sense of clarity whether it be the things he says or actions he does. Kind of ironic after all that talk of Jesus telling him to humble Floyd don't ya think? Maybe the all powerful didn't like how his name was being thrown around lol Btw I like how my "the holy ghost" comment is sticking! |

Trivandrum Lodge combines elements from various film genres such as romance, drama,thriller, black comedy and off-color humor. It follows the lives of the residents in a lodge and their relationships. According to the director, "it is a tale of love, lust and longing set in a lodge."[2] With a very unconventional screenplay which unfolds through these peculiar characters, their experiences and transformations rather than sticking to the usual beginning, middle and end format.

Think rounded pin You will not regret it and fixing your old board is a good option so you can use it and see what we have been talking about.
As for fins, get a five fin set up so you can go quad or thruster or even fiveish! A whole new experience.
BTW on seeing the board it isn't a bad board but simply something that didn't support you! I is something you can come back to but somehow I think you 'll go on to other boards.

MercyMe is an Grammy Award-nominated and Dove Award winning American contemporary Christian band, originally formed in Greenville, Texas in 1994.
The result of a praise and worship band experience, MercyMe was formed in 1994 by Bart Millard, Jim Bryson, and Mike Scheuchzer. Millard and Bryson met while working on a missions project overseas. The two agreed to start a new band in Oklahoma City with Scheuchzer, whom Millard already knew. It didn't take long for the band to build a solid fan base and they soon found themselves opening up for bands such as Audio Adrenaline.

kenneth bancroft clark
American psychologist (b. July 14, 1914, Panama Canal Zone-d. May 1, 2005, Hastings-on-Hudson, N.Y.), conducted pioneering research into the impact of racial segregation on children. With his wife, Mamie Phipps Clark, he administered the "doll test" to African American schoolchildren in the 1940s and '50s. The test involved presenting a child with a black doll and a white doll and asking the child to select a favourite doll. In the segregated South the black children preferred the white doll by a wide margin, with many children identifying the black doll as "bad." Clark's research played a key role in arguments during the 1954 case Brown v. Board of Education, in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled segregation to be unconstitutional. Clark helped develop integrationist educational policies for both federal and state governments. In his career he established several institutions, including in 1946 the Northside Child Development Center in Harlem, meant to foster positive identity and improved opportunities for African Americans. He was active during the civil rights movement and wrote extensively about the plight of African Americans in urban slums. He was committed to integration and strongly opposed both white and black separatists. Late in life he expressed his disappointment that the United States had not made greater progress in race relations.

"Verry disappointed to thoroughly impressed"
on by miketafcPros Excellent graphics especially on games. Great camera and video. Much faster download speeds and Internet speeds with less eyrstrain when reading.
Dictation is much improved and makes writing articles a breeze.Cons Wish Apple would figure out a way to reformat the page after you increase the font size.
Summary Received my New IPAD 32G WIFI only right on time on March 16 and promptly unboxed it and restored my latest IPAD 2 backup. My anticipation was excited by the many articles I've read claiming that the new display is everything from your first experience seeing HDTV to a blind man getting sight.
Since I had shelled out the cash for the new one and promised a family pass down for the old I was out of pocket about $1200. So you can imagine my disappointment when I turned it on and saw nothing dramatically different from the IPAD 2. OK let's get them both out and compare side by side. More disappointment as there seems to be almost no difference in the visuals. My first taught was they shipped me an IPAD 2 by mistake. Weight, thickness, larger camera and a serial number check proved it was definitely a 3rd generation tablet.
I have now had it for more than 24 hrs and can positively report I have gone from totally disappointed to thoroughly impressed.
Visuals from a distance of about 3 ft. when I made my comparison looked about the same but when you put It on your lap to view it at a more normal distance the display starts to pop and everything from text to pictures to movies look phenomenal.
The camera is finally capable of taking excellent photographs and the HD video is with anti shake is very high quality. Bringing photos up in IPhoto makes them look more like a printed glossy and very 3D like.
Internet sites load very quickly and seem more crisp especially when you blow the size up or view a video full screen. Download speeds tested out about 50% higher than the 2 and so did the links.
My favorite racing game "Real Racing HD" issued an update to run on the new iPad screen and so I tried it out. WOW first off the cars in the garage now have a life like appearance. The game itself played very smooth at very fast speeds and the visuals were outstanding. Even games that have not been updated yet played and looked much better.
I read a lot and it was important to me that the books and online articles would provide a better experience and less eye stain than the iPad 2. Too early to tell about the eye strain but the text on iBooks was noticeably better and pages turned smoothly. The kindle app text was also better but pages were jerky and did not turn properly. Checked out flip boards new updated app and again the articles were all eye catching and pictures were outstanding to look at.
So now I've gone from very disappointed to thoroughly impressed and glad to hand over my iPad 2. -
"Eye Catching"
on by medhatbearPros Beautiful screen. Increased graphics and processing power really adds to the experience. Photos from camera are surprisingly good. Comes even closer to being a laptop replacement.
Cons Still would like to see ability to add a flash card......
Summary I had the first generation iPad so this was quite a change in my experience. I am not sure an owner of an iPad 2 would appreciate the improvements.
"Beautiful Display!"
on by YouwhoitsmePros Amazing Display best on the planet
Fast processor for graphics (required for the hi-res)
Above Average computing power
Hi Def Video out
Great base audio
Better rear cameraCons Mirrored HDMI Only
No Flash
Face Time only over Wifi
Poor stereo separation without headphones
No buzz when you hit keyboard keys
Same lousy front camera
Little unmanageable dongles for external connectionsSummary A great new product...very exciting. Nice improvements...but they didn't go far enough. There are some obvious missing features that have been included in their competitors tablets for more than a year. Apple doesn't follow, they lead - always with the most popular product that excels in at least one area, but never all areas. You'll be happy this improved tablet maintains the same pricing structure as the old one. AND Apple has a buy back / recycle program that will help keep used iPad prices from tumbling too far.
"Phenomenal. The retina display is extraordinary."
on by C5fltengineerPros Retina display, dictation (works for me), battery life, styling and construction, camera, and ergonomics (the weight is half of my net book).
Cons After extensive use, I really have no cons specific to the actual iPad itself. I've heard the complaints about the speaker and I find for my use it's excellent (listening to Pandora right now and it sounds great no matter what level I have it on).
Summary I purchased a black 16 GB Wi-Fi only model in the early morning at Walmart. in the past I have owned two iPods over the years but this is my first iOS device and I can say as a non-Apple extremist, and I don't mean that in a bad way, and extensive surfer this iPad meets my needs in an extraordinary manner. my beef has always been with iTunes and the manner in which Apple conducts itself, but their products are exquisitely designed and built and are very intuitive. I purchased an iPod nano for my 70 year old father and he grooves on it like crazy and I am sure when I purchase a new iPad for both him and my mother that they will both get it and utilize it far more than their laptops or desktop. This review is for those who have never owned Apple products or maybe one Apple product and have never owned an iPad I find the weight is not a distraction at all and the screen is
phenomenal. It is phenomenal especially when watching HD content or zooming in on text. I have zoomed in on
webpages ,text and Word documents and have been amazed that the text remains crisp to their maximum extents. I love the functionality of swiping between applications I love the fact that I can make the text big or small literally by pinching my fingers I have no problems navigating between different applications different parts of the webpage. So far all of the webpages that I frequent to include job websites and news organizations are handled quite easily by the ipad. I frequent CNN and I do not feel, for my purposes, that I need that app for that, however
when it comes to FOXNews and MSNBC I find that I have to use an app for those websites. I have done 90% of this review using dictation and with a few exceptions it has done extremely well. One caveat to using dictation is that I sort of sound like either Stephen Hawkings at times or a really stupid robot. I have read many reviews about apps for the iPad and I find that most of the positive and negative reviews can be boiled down to personal preference and not something so fantastic or so bad about the individual app itself. I am still learning to type using the split keyboard, which I like very much, and I am certain that I will get the hang of this and not go back to my PC for anything other than very in-depth work like writing papers or running engineering programs. it is readily apparent that iOS is a very streamlined operating system because of how fast I can switch between each of the apps and how fast webpages load and just the general behavior of the operating system. I have a 10 MB upload Internet service provider and I am using Wi-Fi in the nether regions of my house and yet things load smoothly
and quickly and videos perform phenomenally well to include YouTube. the very first HD video that I watched on
YouTube using the YouTube app was the trailer for the hobbit. what can I say? the images were crisp, crisper than my 1080 P HD television and way more crisp than anything I have ever seen on a computer. my only hesitation with this model of iPad is that I am now thinking that I need 32 GB of storage just to absorb the higher
memory apps for the retina display and the HD movies I may download from time to time. I originally wanted a white 16 GB but all Walmart had was a black one and now I have come to really enjoy the styling so much that I think I will stick with the black, but that is a matter of personal preference. From all of the anecdotal evidence I have read in reviews on the Internet, I will be investing in a nice silicone case ASAP. as a devout gamer and owner of a pS3, I am amazed at the games on the new iPad (they are very fast the graphics are outstanding and
smooth). if you are the kind of person that enjoys listening to music, surfing the Internet, watching HD programs and movies, and writing emails and doing a few small tasks such as making lists and writing a letter or two then this iPad is for you. If you are into tweaking your operating system, then the iPad is not for you. Either way you should purchase what you want but if you are looking for a standalone, portable tablet that you can take
anywhere and enjoy fast Wi-Fi, easy operation, and lots of useful features that I would suggest you pick up an
iPad, but think carefully about the storage size. as for the lack of HDMI and USB ports, if I need this functionality in the future I will just purchase the additional adapters but I do not think this is a major concern. -
"The new iPad polishes the original idea to a high shine"
on by pjs_bostonPros Best display.
Super fast wireless.
Best battery life.
Best industrial design.
Easiest, prettiest, most responsive touch OS.
Best app store and ecosystem.
Best options for music, movies, tv shows, and books.
Best apps for content creation.Cons A bit thicker and heavier than its predecessor. Takes a long time to charge the humongous internal battery.
Summary This iteration is typical Apple. A must have upgrade for iPad 1 owners, optional for iPad 2 owners. For those new to tablets, it is far and away the best device money can buy.

Not all sweetener packs are created Equal
The only equipment change necessary he says "was a switch from a straight-line capper to a rotary chuck-style capper. The straight-line capper used some compression that squeezed the bottle slightly. Because we lost some rigidity going to PP from PET that would have made it difficult to cap the new container.
"So we purchased a rebuilt Consolidated capper" from Change Parts O'Connor continues. "They're a packaging equipment rebuilder and Consolidated's cappers are well-known and come with an excellent reputation."
Equal Spoonful can be used for five years "though we [code it] as having a three-year shelf life" says Maria Brennan Merisant's North America supply chain director.
Consumers may be most familiar with Equal's blue paper packet of sugar substitute but they're embracing the new container as well. The $3.99 Equal Spoonful product "is now in a multitude of channels and is exceeding sales objectives" concludes Jane Boyce the company's vice president of marketing.

Fremont teen safe after air, land search
Wood said police launched the search about two hours after she was first reported missing because she had made no contact with anyone and there had been no activity on her cell phone. Police were able to trace her phone, but there had been no movement, Wood said.
"That's when we became concerned," he said. "It was also getting colder and getting dark and we were aware that she wasn't dressed for the cold weather."
A state police helicopter assisted with the search of the area around her neighborhood in the Tuck Woods housing development.
Nearly five hours after she left home, the teenager showed up at a residence on Route 111A in Brentwood and asked to use a phone to call home.
Wood said she was "just a little cold," but otherwise OK.
Fremont police were also assisted by officers from Brentwood, Bedford, Kingston, and Newton.

Hue Jackson HC news conference highlights
It was time for what seems to be the annual news conference circus at Raider headquarters in Alameda. This time there was no overhead projector involved as there was when "Lance" Kiffin was fired "with cause" and Davis never had to ask for any information on his newly hired coach as he did with Tom Cable initially. This one went down much more as you would expect any coaching hire news conference to go down. But with this being the Raiders as well as Al Davis sitting for a rare question and answer session (something he hasn't done since September of '09), the subject matter went from coaches, to players past and present, to stadium issues. And it was just as informative and entertaining as ever.
It started with Al Davis speaking for about ten minutes about how excited he is with the Raiders' current players. He made special mention of the newest members of the team making a big impact. He is pleased most with the draft class and the acquisition of Jason Campbell at quarterback, taking another opportunity to compare Campbell to some of the great quarterbacks of the past that had slow starts such as Brett Favre and John Elway. Then he turned it over to Hue Jackson saying he is "proud as hell" to introduce him.
Hue Jackson began by thanking his family, his manager, and the Raider organization, with a special thank you to "Coach Davis" for this opportunity. He then listed off several players saying, "We have some tremendous players on the offensive side of the ball: Darren McFadden, Jason Campbell, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Jacoby Ford, Michael Bush, just to name a few." The inclusion of Darrius Heyward-Bey to that list of "tremendous players" is questionable at best. But Jackson got this job in part because he knows what to do and say to please Al Davis. Mentioning DHB with that sentiment is clearly one of those things.
Jackson went on to praise the play of rookie left tackle Jared Veldheer: "As a rookie, coming in and playing like he played for us, the future is so bright on the offensive side of the ball."
The new coach then moved to the defense where he started with "Ronaldo McClain." No, that is not a typo, he pronounced his name "Ronaldo." So it seems one of Hue's first orders of business will be to get to know his defensive players a little better. He went on to call Richard Seymour, Matt Shaughnessy, and Tyvon Branch the "cornerstones" of the defense.
He proceeded to praise the team's accomplishments in 2010, but each time he mentioned something positive, he quickly added a disclaimer about it not being good enough. We all saw how displeased Al Davis was when Cable appeared pleased with an 8-8 season. Jackson was sure not to take that same approach.
"This is a very young talented team that this past season did very well in the AFC West," said Jackson. "Obviously we were 6-0 in the AFC West and we all know we gotta learn how to do better outside of our division, but that challenge is something we're looking forward to... We were the second ranked rushing team in football. We did score points, obviously not enough to our liking, where we want to go -- but we think again the players are in place for us to have an opportunity to get it done."
Jackson reserved his optimism for what he thinks the Raiders are capable of accomplishing in future. He went as far as to say, "There's no question that we're gonna win this division and we're gonna get in those playoffs and we're gonna challenge for the Super Bowl." No mincing words there.
He said his two reasons for joining the Raiders were: "1) I'm from California and I love being back home, but 2) The opportunity to work for Coach Davis." He added that Al Davis was "one of the greatest coaches of our time." He even went as far as to name every owner he has worked for in the NFL and that none of them compare to Al Davis. He listed off Dan Snyder, Mike Brown, Arthur Blank, and Steve Bisciotti saying that in his years under those owners he never had the opportunity to sit and talk football with them the way he can with Davis.
When Jackson took a moment to mention the Raider coaches that "did everything we could to get this organization where we wanted it to be," the only two names mentioned were Mike Waufle and Kevin Ross who happen to be the only two coaches still under contract.
One of the most revealing moments came when Jackson was asked about the possibility of Al Saunders coming aboard as the offensive coordinator, to which Jackson said that he will remain the primary play caller. That was one of the big questions -- if Hue Jackson became the head coach, would he also still call the plays? That is important because then the questions surround whether he can pull double duty. If he were to give up play calling duties, the questions would surround whether the offense would function as well under yet another new offensive system.
Jackson did leave open the possibility of bringing in Al Saunders or another offensive mind to work with him in an offensive capacity.
The questions shifted back to Al Davis at which point Davis immediately began talking up Jason Campbell and again compared him to great quarterbacks of the past. This time it was Steve Young, Elway again, and Rich Gannon.
Davis was asked many times why Cable was not brought back, about which he spoke at great length. He said the primary reason was because Cable couldn't handle the head coaching and play calling duties. He said that his bringing in of Jackson to take over play calling should have been the first clue, saying of Cable, "I just didn't think he could do it." Davis and Cable also didn't see eye to eye on the use of the zone blocking scheme. Davis pointed out that Cable is "a zone blocking purist."
The other reasons Davis gave for Cable's dismissal were dealing with the Randy Hanson assault incident causing "turmoil in our coaching staff" as well as the separate accusations of domestic abuse that came later. He also said, "We had a spouse accuse the head coach of personal relations that were not good. And at that time there were a lot of people who wanted me to take action."
For those reasons, Davis made it clear that he intended on firing Cable even before the 2010 season. He even said that it wouldn't have mattered if the Raiders had made the playoffs. He claimed his only reason for not firing Cable before the season began was he didn't want to cause more turmoil for the team. He also said that he didn't consider firing Cable midseason either, since he "wanted to see how we finished."
News came out recently that Cable had been fined $120,000 by the Raiders for undetermined reasons. Davis said that he was taking $20,000 a month from Cable for the final six months of his contract for the legal fees resulting from the lawsuit filed against the Raiders by the woman Cable was accused of assaulting. Davis added he had to deal with "the wrath [Cable] brought on the Raider organization." Yet another coach Davis has made sure left the complex a bit lighter in the wallet.
In non-Cable news, Davis compared Jackson to John Gruden. A surprising statement by Davis but specifically pointed to the comparison in terms of his offensive coaching. He said they were both "feisty."
Al, of course, got in his usual mentions of the successful draft picks and player trades and acquisitions to remind everyone that he's still got it. In particular he mentioned drafting Asomugha, trading for Seymour, trading for Jason Campbell, and the Raiders' 2010 draft class. He didn't bring up JaMarcus Russell or Darrius Heyward-Bey in that statement although he was asked about Russell at one point and blamed Russell's personal problems for his downfall. I suppose that's fair if you consider having no work ethic or ambition and being grossly overweight as personal problems.
The last subject briefly discussed was the issue of a new stadium. Davis said he would prefer a new stadium on the same site in Oakland where the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum currently stands. He would not comment on his feelings with regard to sharing a stadium with the 49ers.

Country Girl
January 1st, 2010
Anna Kay says that dudes don't really approach her. Shocking, isn't it? And why's that so? "They really don't hit on me," Anna says. "Men are usually intimidated by me. I think it's because I am tall and built this way, they're afraid to approach me. When I lived in Atlanta, I would get hit on by a lot of black guys. But not really anytime else. Guys are intimidated." But Anna says there is an exception. "I think that men in uniform are not intimidated by me at all. In fact, when I am with a man in uniform, I feel like they can protect me. I feel safe. But at the same time, because they come off as so strong, I feel like I can be free during sex and be really, really dirty and get wild, too." What about females? How do they react to Anna's pulchritude and loveliness? Girls are either jealous or they want to grope me. They always ask if they can feel my boobs. They ask to touch them and see if they are real or how much they weigh. When I go to a strip club, the dancers love my boobs. Sometimes they give me a dance and just bury their faces in my tits and try and motorboat me. They tell me that my boobs are just so big and pretty that they can't help themselves. I think it's funny." Anna Kay looks poised to be a new superstar on XLGirls so look for more of her here soon.

My wood boiler is a backup to my gas boiler the gas boiler is working fine but when the wood boiler is up the temp the pump will not shut off was working fine just all the sudden quite shutting off any help is appreciated thanks
Sounds like your over heating the wood boiler. The circulator keeps running to stop the boiler from over heating. The boiler temperature should not be any hotter then 180. Most wood boilers are wired so the circulator will run when the temperature exceeds 180 if the thermostat is calling or not.

I don't understand why their DM3 software is not Mac compatible. I am trying to download my data onto this tiny windows netbook that I own and am having a terrible time. It says "please attach receiver" and won't go out of that screen. When I try to edit the receiver number and code in the patient edit menu, it will not let me type anything in. Not only is this software not Mac compatible, but it is so antiquated and clearly designed for health care providers.
Enough venting. How do I connect my receiver to this POS computer so I can upload my data? I've looked at the DM3 help guide and a google search but I can't find any answers.
Have you tried rebooting the netbook? If that doesn't work, maybe try reinstalling in case the driver didn't instal.. I didn't have to enter any code afaik, I just plugged it in and set who it was when it first synced.
As for the mac issue, you can always dual boot or use parallels, although I'm not too sure if it works in parallels as its been a while since I bothered downloading the data off mine. Either my omnipod or the dexcom wouldnt show up in a virtual copy of windows, but I'm leaning towards it being the omnipod. To do it on a mac you would basically need to buy a copy of windows to install.

June 25, 2013
By Evan Lockridge
A bill to more clearly define independent contractor truckers has received final passage by New York state lawmakers, but it does not endanger the owner-operator model as some say it earlier attempted to do.
Introduced early this year, the bill would originally have reclassified most independent contractor truckers as employees of trucking companies. That raised concerns among several trucking groups, including the New York State Motor Truck Association, because it would have forced fleets to withhold taxes from driver compensation, as well as paying worker's compensation and unemployment insurance.
However, a deal negotiated at the 11th hour of the state Senate and Assembly's final day of the regular session was passed and is now awaiting Gov. Andrew Cuomo's signature.
"We were successful in amending the language that there should be no impact on the lease-purchase provision," says Kendra Hems, president of the New York State Motor Truck Association. "Our language here in New York [will] still allow still allow a lease-purchase between a carrier and an independent contractor, even if it is the carrier that the independent is contracted directly with."
Adams says under the measure, whether a owner-operator trucker is leasing a rig from a carrier or owns the equipment, they or a fleet will not have to worry about their status as an independent contractor.
"We believe what we accomplished will keep the vast majority of truly independent contractors in New York continuing to do what they are doing today," Hems says.
The bill does give New York more power when it comes to cracking down on operations that wrongly classify drivers as independent contractors rather than employee drivers.
Equipment Editor Jim Park also contributed to this story.
That is all well in good New York changed the wording. What happens when an independant gets hurt who pays the workers comp insurance? If the company's name is on his door he is an employee plain an simple unless the company hires another company that owns the truck and that company has the appropriate insurances.
we are a single truck operation,everything is in our name as a dba, why should we be told we have to pay workers comp ins. to be able to take a load, which state law do we abide by if my husband got hurt in a different state, we have our own authority,ins,dot,and own everything should'nt we have the right to not be force pay workers comp...only one broker in NY is doing this all others have us sign a wavier that we don't have it w/c

Court fight over Aspen trademark
Posted: 6:18 AM Feb 19, 2013
Reporter: Associated Press
ASPEN, Colo. (AP) -- There is a court fight over trademarking the word "Aspen," but it doesn't involve the city of Aspen.
J.C. Penney Co. Inc. of Plano, Texas, has asked a federal court to rule on whether a style of weather-resistant boots that it recently started selling can continue to be called "Aspen."
A Boynton Beach, Fla., company called Aspen Licensing International Inc. owns a trademark for various commercial uses of the word "aspen." In November, the company sent a cease-and-desist demand to J.C. Penney, alleging that its advertising and sale of cold-weather boots referred to by the style name "Aspen" infringed on that trademark.
According to the Aspen Times, some people believe the word is generic enough to the point where a company cannot own the trademark rights to it.
