CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia State Police officials say allegations that a student was beaten while unconscious during a training session at the State Police Academy are false, and say they would welcome an independent investigation into the matter.
Gov. Joe Manchin discussed just such an independent investigation Tuesday, said Matt Turner, Manchin's spokesman.
"The governor would like to see that happen," Turner said. "How it might go about is not in place yet, but we will see."
When contacted by The Charleston Gazette, Princeton police officer Christopher Winkler and his family said two academy trainers beat him during baton training on April 5.
State Police Superintendent Col. Timothy S. Pack issued a statement Thursday saying Winkler didn't receive any direct hits to the head or neck. He said the training was immediately halted when it became apparent that Winkler was in distress.
"The allegations that have been portrayed in the media are without merit. In fact, they are simply untrue," Pack said in the statement, read by State Police spokesman Sgt. Michael Baylous at a press conference at State Police headquarters in South Charleston.
"Officer Winkler was not beaten while he lay on the floor in a state of distress," Pack said in the statement. "After an internal inquiry which included the interviews of other basic officers in attendance and several Academy Staff Members consisting of West Virginia State Troopers and officers from various other agencies, it was determined that Basic Officer Winkler was neither abused nor mistreated in any manner."
Pack did not attend the news conference and did not speak to reporters.
According to Pack's statement, witnesses said Winkler didn't receive any direct hits to the head or neck. Winkler walked to the ambulance after being treated by a staff member and former Navy corpsman, the statement says.
Winkler's mother, Pamela McPeak, said an instructor told her in the hospital after her son was injured that he saved Winkler's life by pulling two other instructors off Winkler when they continued to beat him while he was unconscious.
According to McPeak, her son was singled out by several of the training officers.
"For anyone to speculate what caused his adverse medical condition would be simply that, speculation," Pack's statement reads. "However, the existence of clear and convincing medical evidence that this condition was a direct result of training, rather than a possible pre-existing condition, has not been produced."
Medical documents provided to the Gazette by the Winkler family on Tuesday show a diagram of Winkler's injuries to the neck. The "Emergency Physician Record" from Thomas Memorial Hospital states that Winkler received a head injury during training at the police academy.
The "context" on the form is listed as "direct blow," the severity as "moderate" and the associated symptoms as "lost consciousness."
McPeak tried to attend Tuesday's news conference, but was not allowed into the secure area of State Police headquarters. State Police officials talked to her and gave her a copy of Pack's statement.
She discussed her son's situation with reporters after the news conference outside State Police headquarters.

At the start of the investigation, the team believes the model may have committed suicide, but they uncover a twisted love triangle involving the Marine staff sergeant working on Boot Camp Babes, a drug addicted ex-boyfriend and a disgruntled adoptive father, who is also the executive producer of the reality show. Meanwhile, Director Shepard is annoyed when Gibbs doesn't show up at an awards ceremony where he is being honored.

The tool, developed by FamilyFarmed.org with funding from USDA's Risk Management Agency (RMA), allows producers to design a customized manual to meet GAP harmonized standards and certification requirements, including USDA GAP standards, and mitigate business risks by responding to a survey.
"USDA believes that a strong farm safety net—including effective, market-based risk solutions for producers of all variety and size—is crucial to sustain the vitality of American agriculture," said Agriculture Deputy Secretary Kathleen Merrigan. "Effectively managing risk is important to all producers, and having an acceptable food safety program is in the best interest of consumers, buyers, and the farmers themselves."

2010 Ford Shelby GT500 Coupe Review
by refinerydog |
Love the car but I have a 2013 GT500 ordered. Car gets looks no matter where we go - always draws a crowd. The occasional SS Camaro that wants a little taste usually wanders off licking their wounds. Sound of motor and blower is awesome. Car can easily make over 750 HP if desired for a few thousand dollars.

Brian Swan has a new post answering a question he's gotten about the stored procedures that the SQL Server database includes and whether or not they help prevent SQL injections in your applications.When I've asked people about their strategies for preventing SQL injection, one response is sometimes "I use stored procedures." But, stored procedures do not, by themselves, necessarily protect against SQL injection. The usefulness of a stored procedure as a protective measure has everything to do with how...

I wanted something interesting for our small dining area, but nothing too crazy or attention grabbing. This light is perfect! I love how it looks with the light on & off, and the adjustable cables add a touch of industrialism. Very sleek and unique. I'd searched all the big home improvement centers, and all my favorite online catalog stores..and nothing came close to meeting the style I wanted, I was willing to spend more! This is perfect. My handy husband didn't have any trouble installing it, fast cheap shipping.
Should have shopped more sites before spending money here, After waiting for 16 days, it was a bit of a let down when I saw it.
It has been three days since I requested a replacement be sent for this lamp, and the status is still "processing." I sent and email and didn't receive any response within the promised 24 hours. I called, it was supposedly taken care of, and two days later, the telephone customer service rep was of no help whatsoever, stating that it is "processing." The lamp itself, it is seemingly not terribly easy to adjust the cable length, there are ball bearings that are missing and the cables simply don't stay in place. Worst of all, VERY poor effort to get a replacement to me.
I had been looking for a dining chandelier for a few weeks and saw this one. The price was great as was the style. It arrived quickly and was easy to install. It looks GREAT. Turned out to be exactly what I wanted, the difused light is just right, my previous fixture was way too bright. Excellent product, was very pleased. Would absolutely recommend.
Nice little shade. I'm using it for a dinning room fixture. No frills, I wish I had waiting and got one with a little more bling.
love this light. hung it over my kitchen table. very modern looking, and very weel made.

Help...I'm new to chocolate. Have a Rev 2. Following instructions except for dark chocolate I raised the melting temp to 120 per Valrhona instructions. Wont release.
What am I doing wrong. the only thing I can think of is when I fill up the mold for the shell I drain it back into the Rev 2 bowl and then use it for caping. Every thing I read says it won't release because of over or under tempering. When I first tried the Rev 2 I left the melt temp at factory setting of 108 and moulded…

Mr. Margolin is the Vice President of Marketing for Algotec, Inc., Duluth, GA.
[Editor's note: This article is presented as a counterpoint to the article, Web technology and its relevance to PACS and teleradiology by Wayne T. DeJarnette, PhD, published in the August 2000 issue of Applied Radiology, pages 9-12. Applied Radiology welcomes articles contributing to the dialogue regarding the state of radiology practice and the use of new technology.]
Though the terms "Web" and "the Internet" are often used synonymously with their enabling technologies, I agree with Dr. DeJarnette's position that some distinction between these terms is important in understanding and analyzing their relevance to PACS and teleradiology. In my opinion, though, a primary distinction should be made between Web technologies and the Internet. Web technologies include a multitude of different technologies, all of which are in common use over "the Internet"a global, public network, also known as the "information superhighway."
To clarify the above distinction, here are some examples:
1) E-mail technology has been widely used over the Internet for more than a decade as a means for information exchange and communication. In recent years, there has been growing use of e-mail technology, clearly a Web-related technology, for intra-organizational communications. In this application, e-mail messages will typically move on the organization's local area network (LAN), without ever crossing the public Internet. Still Web technology based, the application can then be referred to as an "intranet application," i.e., an application of Web technology over a LAN.
2) Java technology was introduced in the mid-1990s by Sun Microsystems as a tool to write platform-independent software code. In other words, with Java, code can be written and compiled only once, and then run on any machine, irrespective of its architecture or operating system. Though Java can be used as any other object-oriented programming language (e.g., C++) to code software applications, it is easy to understand its special benefits for applications that run in the context of the Internet. Clearly, on the Internet, many different target computers coexist, and the original application developer has no means to reach all of them or even anticipate their make or model. Therefore, it is not surprising that Java has become one of the most common programming languages for Internet applications. Hence, unlike C++, we can safely consider Java a Web technology.
In his article, Dr. DeJarnette suggests that different Web technologies have not been equally useful for PACS and teleradiology applications. Clearly, no one can dispute the usefulness of technologies such as TCP/IP communications (which provide the foundation for the DICOM-3 standard) and the Internet (with its widely available, low-cost communication infrastructure). But it is exactly at this point that Dr. DeJarnette's arguments become entangled. He goes on to say that other Web technologies have much more limited use or no use whatsoever in PACS and teleradiology. In my opinion, almost all Web technologies can and will be useful for these applications. The grounds for this general statement had best be laid by the distinction made above between Web technologies and the Internet.
As defined above, what Web technologies have in common is their usefulness for Internet applications. In other words, these are technologies that either enable applications to run over the Internet, or make use of the Internet. This definition includes one fundamental advantage of Web technologies for PACS and teleradiology. In fact, I would argue that this definition shows that the future of PACS and teleradiology is immersed in Web technologies. To understand why, let us first step back a little into the history of PACS and teleradiology.
"Traditional" PACS applications, which started in the early 1990s, were all focused on solving the departmental issue of digital clinical image management. These applications were hardware- and network-intensive, and could by no means tackle the much larger problem of enterprise-wide clinical image distribution. Accordingly, these applications, without exception, were met with commercial failure. Since films were still needed to complete the life cycle of the imaging study outside the Radiology department, cost justification of PACS became practically impossible.
"Traditional" teleradiology applications, by far more commercially successful than their contemporary PACS applications, have found their success through a much narrower definition of the problem they sought to solve. The "traditional" teleradiology problem entailed images that were acquired at point A, with a need for interpretation by a doctor at point B. If it is less expensive to transport the images from point A to point B than to transport the doctor the other way, "traditional" teleradiology is appropriate. Under this simple paradigm, "traditional" teleradiology found its application in the market. But what happens if the attending physician happens to be at point C; or if there are multiple attending physicians to review the images? With these and similar questions, the "traditional" teleradiology paradigm starts to break down. The application of teleradiology has thus remained extremely limited relative to its potential market.
First, the basic question: "What is the Internet?" must be addressed. In his article, Dr. DeJarnette defines the Internet as "a publicly owned, network-based communication infrastructure that grew out of DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Project Agency) research in the 1970s and 1980s." Clearly, this communication infrastructure has taken a leap in the 1990s, becoming more and more of an all-encompassing, global network, where people throughout the world find information, communicate, buy, sell, and seek entertainment. Now consumer-oriented, the Internet has become more widely available, faster, and cheaper to attain than any communication infrastructure ever before.
The "Internet Revolution" of the 1990s has paved the road for a multitude of new business models and markets, collectively referred to as "e-businesses." With a good deal of hype, and the help of some sharp copywriters, fields like e-travel, e-commerce, e-healthcare, and many others have emerged. Among these, it has become increasingly clear that the place of e-radiology will not remain absent for long. But what is e-radiology and what promise does it hold for the future of radiology?
The answers to the above questions bring us back to the breakdown of "traditional" PACS and teleradiology. These applications remained limited because they could not break out from the confines of the department (in the case of PACS) or some predefined points A and B (in the case of teleradiology). But what if a global network is available with enough bandwidth to support these data-intensive applications and at a price everyone can afford? The outcome is simple: a new type of PACS and teleradiology applications, fit for enterprise-wide clinical image sharing and community-wide or even worldwide radiology consultation and other remote services. Hence the new business of e-radiology.
It is clear that the Internet has great potential to revolutionize or reinvent the business of radiology. But this alone does not explain the usefulness of Web technologies for PACS and teleradiology applications. As Dr. DeJarnette suggests, it is not impossible to run non-Web applications over the Internet. The only question here is: at what cost?
As defined above, Web technologies either enable the Internet or make use of it. As such, they create an infrastructure for the development of applications designed to run over the Internet. The same two Web technologies mentioned have potential applications for clinical image management:
1) E-mail has recently been proposed by some vendors as a tool for the distribution of clinical results, including the transmission of radiology reports and reference (or key) images to referring physicians. Clearly a Web technology - why is e-mail suitable for this task? Here are some good reasons:
a) E-mail systems are prevalent and standard; they do not require any special application software on the referring doctor's computer. Therefore, there is one less application to purchase, install, and maintain on the doctor's computer.
b) Many doctors are very familiar with e-mail, which enables faster learning curves and lower training and education costs.
c) E-mail messages inherently consist of multimedia contents; this makes them ideal to transport multimedia clinical results.
d) E-mail systems are highly integrated with Web browser technology, which opens the way for a closer, smoother integration of clinical results with more sophisticated and specialized applications for their processing and analysis.
2) Java has conquered more and more ground as a prime software development tool in general and in PACS and teleradiology applications in particular. Dr. DeJarnette declares that Java "should be of no interest to a PACS or teleradiology user or purchaser, other than if the use of this technology results in a more reliable, more maintainable, higher performing, and/or lower cost system." I totally agree, but I maintain that Java has tremendous potential to provide exactly that: a lower cost system. Here are some of the reasons in the specific context of (on-call) teleradiology:
a) Java provides a framework for remote, platform-independent application use. With a pure Java application, or applet, no application software whatsoever is required on the end-user's station to run the application. Everything needed is downloaded automatically and transparently from the application Web server. This means that any doctor can operate a Java-based image viewing application from his/her home PC (using any make and model) as is! No need to purchase, install, or maintain any application software on the home PC, since none is required in the first place!
It can be argued that some non-Java applications may be less expensive than the Java-based ones because the image viewing application itself is very cheap, or even provided for free ("freeware"), whereas the cost for a Java-based system is in purchasing the server. I contend, however, that even in the case of freeware, these applications end up being more costly than the Java-based ones due to the associated costs of installation and maintenance. The latter must not be underestimated. General statistics in the United States show that an organization spends approximately $1500 annually on the maintenance of each of its PCs. This amount is comparable to the original purchase price of the PC itself. Though similar statistics for the consumer market is harder to obtain, many of us have witnessed first-hand the ramifications of an operating system upgrade, or even the installation of new application software, on the performance and viability of other applications. With Java, these concerns and costs are largely eliminated.
b) Typically, Java is invoked from a standard Web browser. With its widely familiar interface, the Web browser thus becomes the access mechanism for the doctor onto the teleradiology application. Again, this translates into shorter learning curves and lower training costs.
c) Java is easy to integrate with other Web-based technologies and systems. A Java-based teleradiology application, providing clinical image viewing capabilities and tools, can easily be integrated into a Web-based clinical results browser (e.g., patient charts viewer) or an electronic medical records (EMR) system.
These two examples demonstrate that the low-cost nature of Web technologies is not only an "article of faith," as suggested by Dr. DeJarnette. It is based on actual facts.
Dr. DeJarnette makes a distinction between DICOM-based teleradiology systems and Web-based teleradiology systems. In fact, he even provides a comparison chart between the two. But, are these two technologies really mutually exclusive? The answer is definitely no. There is no reason why these two technologies cannot be mixed. In fact, some applications in the market today offer exactly this mix. The concept is straightforward: enjoy the benefits of both technologies.
How can DICOM and the Web work in concert to provide the best of all worlds for teleradiology? Here is a simple recipe:
1) The end-user (e.g., a radiologist on call using his home desktop PC) opens a Web browser exactly as if surfing the Web.
2) The user then selects an IP address (or jumps to a predefined bookmark) of a teleradiology Web server.
3) The user's Web browser and the server communicate via the HTTP protocol to initiate the communications.
4) Once the user is authenticated, control is transferred to a Java applet, which goes from the server to the browser.
5) Through the Java applet, the user can query any DICOM device on the network and retrieve images from it to the browser. The DICOM commands are encapsulated in the Web protocol for the communications between the client and the Web server. Direct DICOM communications prevail between the Web server (which can also act a DICOM device) and the other DICOM devices on the LAN.
Another disadvantage of Web technology, according to Dr. DeJarnette, is its lack of support for the push model: the traditional teleradiology model. But does the Web really preclude the use of the push model? The answer is clearly no. First, we already mentioned e-mail as an obvious example of Web technologies. E-mail is also a push-type of technology. As mentioned above, I see the main application for e-mail in the distribution of clinical results to referring physicians. E-mail remains limited in its application for teleradiology, i.e., remote interpretation of diagnostic images.
But e-mail is not the only push-type Web technology. There are other technologies available that allow pushing data to the user as opposed to having them pull this data. In fact, some commercial Web-based systems make use of such technologies in the context of PACS and teleradiology applications today. The main benefit of the push model is in cutting short the waiting time for the data to download. When used over slow communications (e.g., plain old telephone system), this model can make a significant difference, especially for the radiologist on call. But, since it is available on both Web and non-Web systems, this cannot be taken as a differentiation between the two.
When dealing with slow communications, the push model is only one option. Another important factor is compression. Dr. DeJarnette claims that Web systems generally offer only JPEG compression, which has been known to be inferior to Wavelet compression techniques in handling clinical images. While this may be the case, since JPEG is so commonly used on Web pages, it must be noted that nothing on the Web prevents the use of Wavelet compression. And again, some commercial Web systems already offer Wavelet compression.
Moreover, by making use of the concept of progressive compression prevalent on Web pages, some Web systems actually reduce the user's waiting times even more. The concept is simple and powerful: images are first loaded and displayed in crude, low-resolution versions, which come up very quickly. The images then build up their resolution to show more and more of the fine details, while the user already has access to most of the data.
Highlighting the benefits of the Internet, Dr. DeJarnette mentions that non-Web systems can make use of this global network. He also mentions that the Internet still has its drawbacks, including bandwidth and security questions. I agree with him on both points. I believe, however, that the complete picture must be examined in context.
As explained above, I believe a primary distinction must be made between the Internet and the Web, i.e., Web technologies. We must understand that there are four generally possible combinations for using the Internet and/or Web technologies (Table 1). In other words, some non-Web systems can run over the Internet. Most Web-based systems can also run over any communications that support TCP/IP. In particular, the application of Web-based systems over LAN is common, and is referred to as an "intranet application."
Intranet applications offer the benefits of Web technologies without the concerns associated with the public Internet. Since the application runs on a dedicated, private network, bandwidth and security are no longer serious hurdles. Here are some benefits to Web technologies running without the Internet:
* Open, standards-based architecture
* Common user interface (e.g., through the Web browser)
* Platform independence (e.g., through Java)
* Excellent scalability (consider the basic model of the Web)
One additional major benefit of Web technologies is their easy expandability onto the Internet. Even in cases in which the Internet cannot be used today, e.g., due to bandwidth limitations or security concerns, it would be unwise to preclude the use of the Internet in the future: when bandwidth becomes more readily available, or when sufficient security measures are in place.
In fact, on both the bandwidth and security questions, it would be extremely shortsighted to ignore the development of the market in recent years. High-speed Internet connections, through cable modems and digital subscriber lines (DSL) are reaching more and more of the consumer market, while encryption techniques and their derivative virtual private networks offer excellent privacy and data protection over the Internet. Far from having PACS or teleradiology in mind, these prominent market trends pave the road for more use of the Internet for these applications. Since they were originally designed to enable applications running on the Internet, Web technologies provide the best guarantee for smoothly and simply migrating new applications to the Internet. An application can begin by running on an intranet and then be expanded to the Internet when the need arises.
For many years, PACS and teleradiology have been considered two separate applications. I contend that this distinction becomes unnecessary from a technology standpoint with the introduction of Web technologies. My argument is simple: no one can deny the need for PACS to expand its reach toward the larger community of referring physicians. As I argued above, this is exactly where "traditional" PACS failed. Web-based PACS, on the other hand, offer the first economically viable solution for this need. While most referring physicians will settle for what Dr. DeJarnette calls "the simple Web-server-based teleradiology model" (i.e., sending reports and reference-quality images using HTML pages), in up to 30% of cases (e.g., for neurosurgery and orthopedic applications), the image viewing capabilities required are not any different than for teleradiology. Luckily, Web technologies can address well the needs in both cases. If the physician at the end of the line happens to be a radiologist, we're back to the teleradiology application. In other words, with a Web-based PACS, which addresses the needs of the referring physician community, teleradiology becomes almost an inherent side effect. There is no need to invest in a separate application!
This consolidation of PACS and teleradiology has more far-reaching implications. In my opinion, it is only one facet of the much larger potential of the Web for integrating different applications. Perhaps the most interesting of these in the context of PACS and teleradiology is the potential for creating comprehensive EMRs. Long sought for, and still almost non-existent, the EMR can be thought of as a global access engine, available everywhere, and providing a uniform interface to comprehensive, multimedia clinical information on a patient. It is not hard to see the potential of the Web browser in this context. In fact, some precursors of this integration are already available. Interestingly enough, it is via Web-based applications that clinical images can be accessed from some radiology information systems (RIS) and other clinical information systems (CIS) today. Simply put, the Web provides common grounds for the unification of these, previously disparate applications.
Dr. DeJarnette says that "in order to decide whether or not to choose a Web-based system, it is important to understand the details of the application. In the end, the choice should come down to: which system addresses identified needs, as well as anticipated future needs, at the lowest cost." I could not agree more. I contend, however, that in most cases the Web system will in fact offer exactly that: better handling of present and future needs at a lower cost.
Dr. DeJarnette concludes: "Al-though interesting and well hyped, the use of Web technology should not be the sole basis for deciding on the purchase of PACS and teleradiology systems. The technology employed in a medical imaging product should be one of many factors considered as part of the purchasing decision." I agree completely. He then continues: "In PACS and teleradiology applications, Web technology has no de-facto advantage." As I demonstrated above, this is definitely not true. Web technology offers some very clear and prominent advantages. With these in mind, I would recommend to anyone interested in PACS or teleradiology, at a minimum, to consider these technologies seriously and without prejudice. Of course, no one can contest Dr. DeJarnette's bottom line: "As with any system purchase, no decision should be made without thoughtful consideration of the application itself and how well it meets the needs of the radiology department." But nothing in this statement can diminish the huge promise of Web technologies for clinical image management. AR

Why do we have to make resolutions in the first place? I can't seem to get past the first week. I wanted to know the most popular New Year's resolutions people make, so I did a little research. Here are the most popular resolutions:

The color of the rug is closer to the color of the wood floor in the background of the picture. The rug is attractive, but it is rust and gold colored -- not red. The center area that looks almost white is a yellow cream. The green is only the accent color and is very muted. The rug was delivered the day after I ordered it, so I have plenty of time to order another rug.
Given some of the previous reviews, I was fully expecting this to be quite scratchy and itchy-- which I was willing to settle for, given that I wanted a flat weave rug, this was very pretty, and the price was good. However, it is not scratchy, and lies flat. Small and lightweight enough to bring out to the porch to shake out, or to rinse a corner if the dog has an accident, and nice that it's reversible. Also got a coordinating runner with same colors, and the two look terrific together. Just to note, the colors are more muted and earthier than in the picture (the red is actually a reddish brown), but when ordering online, one should always have some latitude and flexibility about color.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out

Staff Writer
First Lady Michelle Obama fired up the partisan crowd in pep rally fashion Saturday afternoon at Withrow Court at Miami University.
The 1932-built gymnasium echoed cheers, chants and songs from the Miami University Marching Band, and the school's glee club and gospel singers. The crowd of 2,600 erupted when the First Lady came out, after being introduced by 18-year-old Miami freshman Alex Ponikvar.
"It's clear President Obama is fighting for me and every student here at Miami University," said the Cleveland-area native who has worked on the Obama campaign.
On the weekend before Election Day, Obama hit on a variety of campaign issues her husband has addressed during his bid for a second term: women's issues, education, job creation, the economy, ending the Iraq war, killing Osama bin Laden and health care.
She also referenced Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's plan to cut public television funding: "Cutting Sesame Street is no way to balance a budget."
The first lady also pushed the importance of early voting.
"This election is going to be closer than the one four years ago. And it comes down to a few key battleground states, especially in Ohio," she said. "One vote in a neighborhood would make a difference, one vote in an apartment building, or one vote in a dorm room can make a difference of how our country goes."
The Obama-Biden won Ohio in 2008 by more than 262,000 votes, which the first lady equates to 24 votes per precinct. Counties in some of the state's largest cities — Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dayton — led the way for the Democrats to win Ohio.
Butler County Republican Party Chairman Dave Kern said the campaign stop was a last attempt to reduce the percentage Romney will take the GOP-dominated county.
"It's well known and the Democrats know we're trying to overcome the liberal vote in Cuyahoga County," said Kern. "They want to whittle down the county (vote) by several percentage points. And they're not going to do it."
Four years ago, the Obama-Biden ticket garnered 37.9 percent of the county vote as the McCain-Palin ticket received 60.5 percent.
Most of the polls show Obama leading in Ohio and the nation, but many of those polls are within their 3 percent margins of error. Key states polls show Obama leading include Ohio, Wisconsin and Colorado. Polls indicate Romney leads in Virgina, North Carolina and Florida.
Kern said he believes Ohio will go to Romney based on the excitement of the presidential candidate's supporters demonstrated at an event Friday at The Square @ Union Centre in West Chester Twp. Crowds were estimated to be at 30,000, but Kern said another 10,000 were outside the gates of the event listening to the rally.
Saturday was the second time Miami has been a backdrop for the 2012 presidential campaign. In August, just after being tapped as the GOP vice presidential candidate, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan returned to his alma mater.
The Obama campaign came to Miami because it "has been the center of some of the university politics over the last several months in Ohio," said Jessica Kershaw, press secretary for the Ohio Obama campaign.
"Students here I think are very engaged in the political process, are curious about what the candidates have to say and so we certainly want to make sure that the first lady has an opportunity to talk about the choice in the election," she said. "There are a number of first-time voters that we're talking to and making sure we're getting involved and making sure they vote early, and if not early certainly on Election Day."
Alex Tirrell, a junior political science major at Miami, said "it's pretty key" for women to support Obama. She said the Romney-Ryan stance on abortion rights are key factors for her.
"It's pretty scary to me as a woman because that's a direct violation to my control of my own body and own health," said the 20-year-old Connecticut native. "Obama will preserve my right to make decisions for my own body."
She also supports Obama's initiatives for environmental controls and climate change, especially in light of Hurricane Sandy that's devastated the East Coast.
Middletown native and 1963 Miami graduate Bob Hart said he doesn't want to see the clock rolled back to policies of a decade or two ago.
"That's their objective," said Hart. "That's not going to work for this country, and certainly not going to work for me and the ones I love."

THIS YEAR'S Worldwide Exhibition for Incentive Travel, Meetings & Events, or IMEX, held in May in Frankfurt, was the place to get new ideas for sites and venues for incentive travel programs. Here are our top five:
AUTOSTADT — This theme park in Wolfsburg, Germany (one hour from Berlin and half an hour from Hamburg by train) pays homage to the automobile. To call it a theme park doesn't do it justice, because Autostadt is so much more, with museums, restaurants (all available for exclusive hire), a Ritz-Carlton hotel with conference facilities, the Volkswagen manufacturing facilities, and, best of all, hands-on driving training.
Various types of driving training are available, but the favorites for groups are an all-terrain course, where guests drive a VW Touareg with a trainer on an obstacle course, and safety training, where they learn to keep cars under control in extreme conditions. www.autostadt.de
YACHTS DE PARIS — As if a cruise on the Seine weren't enough, Yachts de Paris goes one step further. The evening combines a stop at one of the many wonderful art museums downriver from the Yacht de Paris base at Port Henry IV with a dinner by two-star chef Jean-Pierre Vigato. On board, guests sip champagne and listen to a private lecture about the art exhibit they will view. The ships accommodate 15 to 650 attendees. www.yachtsdeparis.fr
BARGAIN SHOPPING IN EUROPE — Chic Outlet Shopping Villages are on the outskirts of major cities such as Brussels, Cologne, London, Frankfurt, Paris, Milan, Bologna, Barcelona, Madrid, Düsseldorf, and Dublin. The stores in the villages take 33 percent to 60 percent off retail prices on designer clothing. Each shopping village includes restaurants and cafes, venues for private dining, and VAT refund services. www.ChicOutletShopping.com
PAU — One of the four IMEX Wild Card winners (a contest that highlights emerging destinations), Pau is a jewel of a city in southwestern France, close to the Pyrenees. Its location gives it a microclimate with palm trees growing in the city and snow-covered mountains in the background.
Most of the year, guests can visit wineries, castles (the 12th-century castle, which is available for gala dinners, is the birthplace of Henry IV), or the local stud farm. In the summer, the beaches of Biarritz are only an hour's drive away; in the winter, there is skiing nearby. Pau Le Palais Beaumont, the city's conference center, dates to 1899 and is a member of Historic Conference Centres of Europe. Hotel Parc Beaumont, the city's new four-star hotel, is just a walk through the park from the convention center. www.pau.fr
CAMEROON — For a small, well-traveled group that desires a trip off the beaten path, Cameroon has taken its place on the incentive map. With National Parks in the north, a rain forest and Pygmy tribes in the southeast, and beach resorts in the southwest, this is a place where winners can take tours that include trekking and sleeping in tents. Cameroon has remained somewhat isolated from the world, so outside the larger cities, visitors will still find traditional houses, clothing, and markets. (With more than 260 ethnic tribes from which to draw their wares, the village markets are colorful and exciting experiences). firstname.lastname@example.com

James Cameron briefly talks Terminator 5
Wednesday, 18 April 2012
Sure enough, a fifth Terminator movie was announced back in April of last year, with Schwarzenegger set to link up with director Justin Lin (The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast & Furious and Fast Five) before the latter bailed on the project in favour of further installments in the high-octane racing series. Since then, things have went quiet on the Terminator 5 front, but now the franchise's creator James Cameron (Avatar) has briefly spoken about the project to MTV News:
"I was talking to [Schwarzenegger] back in the fall about a new Terminator film and quietly advising on that," says Cameron, who helmed the 1984 original and its blockbuster sequel Terminator 2: Judgement Day. "I was trying to be as encouraging as possible. Frankly, at that time, I thought it needed to be more about him. I told him he shouldn't do it until it's focused on his character. I think there are some great stories that can be told about that character that haven't even been thought of yet."
Not to disagree with Cameron, but while there might be plenty of "great stories" left for the the Terminator, is the near 65-year-old actor really capable of convincingly portraying the unstoppable killing machine for another outing? Schwarzenegger's last leading role came in the disappointing Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines way back in 2003 and even then he was cutting it fine, while there's no way that the CG model from Terminator: Salvation could carry an entire film. Personally, as much as I love Arnie, I have to say I think this is one character that shouldn't be back...
Regardless, Schwarzenegger will return to screens this year alongside fellow action icons Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Chuck Norris and company in The Expendables 2, before reuniting with Stallone for The Tomb, due for release next year.

stop hating. arnold could get back in shape. he knows everything about fitness. hell my 88 year old grandpa has a six pack and bulging muscles. yea, he's a farmer.
ReplyDelete I'm not hating. I have no doubt he could get into decent shape for his age, but 1984 shape, or anywhere even remotely close? Not a chance. Why would Cyberdyne build a 65-year old cyborg, bulging muscles or not, when they've already got an absolute monster in the Model 101? I'd rather see him back as Dutch or King Conan - at least they'd be believable.
ReplyDelete- WhosTheMorley19 April 2012 01:10
What about Christian Bale who played John Connor in Terminator Salvation, Will he back?
ReplyDelete - Phluey20 April 2012 10:32
I think it could work; yeah, the CG version on Terminator Salvation couldn't carry a whole movie, but they could do a way better version of that that could carry a movie, in my opinion. Arnold could do the role, and they could touch it up with CG and what not..
ReplyDelete - Danwild16v28 April 2012 22:28
Absolutely. Look at what they did with Jeff Bridges in "Tron: Legacy". There was much more CG screen time there than there was with Arnie in Salvation. As long as they have the funds, Hollywood can do anything with effects. Watch this space....

Tres Leches Cake – gluten, dairy & egg-free! (& homemade coconut whipped cream)
Tres Leches Cake is served all over the world using different accent ingredients which range from rum to caramel, but always using 3 milks (hence the name!). What makes my version even more special are the coconut and almond accent flavors, and the fact that this cake is entirely gluten, dairy and egg-free. A vegan tres leches cake? You bet! And topped with homemade coconut whipped cream, it tastes like a dream!
