The troubled Carnival cruise ship Triumph is weathering yet another storm. The ship has broken free from the shipyard in Mobile, Ala. A worker was missing after the cruise ship broke free from its moorings but has now been found.
Photos show damage to the ship. Carnival workers said high winds caused the ship to break its moorings and it drifted into an army corps of engineers boat and then into the dock.
A representative for Carnival says two workers were thrown into the water. They are both back safe on solid ground. The ship was at the shipyard getting repairs after a fire in the engine room stranded 4,200 passengers for five miserable days back in February .
Tug boats and the coast guard are working on bringing the boat back to shore. The ship was taken out of service and but was expected to sail again on June 3.

Judith Sutton - Library Journal
Colombian-born Hoffmann has lived in Miami for the last 17 years; she has a Spanish-language cooking and entertaining series on Galavision/Univision and is the host of a new Food Network show. This companion book to that series features her take on Latin cooking, from classics like Frijoles Rancheros to fusion dishes such as South-of-the-Border Bouillabaisse. Many recipes don't seem particularly Latin, and Hoffmann herself comes across as rather fatuous. Nevertheless, expect demand from fans of the TV shows.
More Reviews and RecommendationsBiography
Born in Colombia and based in Miami, INGRID HOFFMANN has been fascinated with food, cooking, and style since she was a little girl. She started cooking with her mother, a Cordon Bleu chef, at such a young age that she needed a stool to reach the stove. With her mother she discovered not only a love of cooking but also a flair for entertaining, and in no time she developed her own distinctive style. Years later, Ingrid opened a successful restaurant and catering firm in Miami. She currently stars in Simply Delicioso on Food Network and Delicioso on Galavision/Univision, a Latin cooking and entertaining show.

Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol Palin: abstinence 'not realistic'
We've all been so busy talking about Nadya Suleman's 14 IVF babies that we've totally neglected our other favorite unwed mother.
No, not Jamie Lynn Spears.
Gov. Sarah Palin's daughter, Bristol Palin.
The Alaska governor's 18-year-old daughter expressed some startlingly unconservative views to her mom's good friend at Fox News, Greta Van Susteren, on her show Monday night.
She told Van Susteren that teaching sexual abstinence to teenagers is "not realistic at all."
Bristol Palin said, "I hope people learn from my story. It's so much easier if you're married, have a house and career. It's not a situation you want to strive for."
She also denied that her mom's anti-abortion stand was why she didn't terminate the unplanned pregnancy.
"It was my choice to have the baby," she said. "It doesn't matter what my mom's views are on it. It was my decision."
What do you think of Bristol's revelation?
Do you agree with her about teaching abstinence? Is it enough?
Or do kids need to learn about how to protect themselves from STDs and pregnancy?
And when are she and her fiance getting married?
Did Greta ask that? Wonder why not?

Notice that she said "it's my choice to have the baby" - so she's pro-choice?
On here you're a thinly-veiled liberal, but I'll respond to this article anyhow. Abstinence teaching is essential. We've got to stop making it seem like an OK thing to have sex before you're mature enough to have babies or handle the complications of sex. Hollywood doesn't help---they don't have a clue.
Hey! Maybe I have a shot with her! She's loose!
At 18 she is already displaying more intellect than her mother.
Jana: Can a person not use the use choice anymore? Does it really matter? She choose to have the baby so it doesn't really matter if she supports abortion or not.
Of course it's unrealistic to expect anyone to be abstinent, but why couldn't she have used contraception if she didn't want kids for 10 years?
typical trailer trash
I'm pretty sure they mean "abstinence only" in this article... I don't know of anyone who wasn't taught (or hasn't figured it out for themselves) that it's the only 100% guaranteed way to not have a baby or get an STD. "Abstinence" is certainly realistic, but "Abstinence Only" is another story entirely.
The girl is full of baloney. Abstinence is realistic. So is a refusal to control ones own actions. Miss Palin simply refused to control her own behaviour, and she ended up with a baby. I do, of course, commend her for not murdering the child (aka "abortion").
Abstinence education is counterproductive--I was present for plenty of it in high school. No one learned anything, nobody waited to have sex, and the useful information we needed when we became sexually active was denied to us. People used to get married and have babies at 13... the teenage years are when the urge kicks in. Obviously, social standards and laws have changed, presumably to protect "innocent children," but systematic denial is a bad practice for any problem. Telling horny teenagers they can't have sex until they get married is a disaster situation. "You mean if I want to have sex, I have to become like my angry, divorced parents? No way! I'm having sex now and never getting married!" That's what abstinence education really taught us. Thank god for Trojan commercials, Planned Parenthood, and a handful of brutally honest adults that saved us all from the fate the "abstinence only" nut jobs tried to force upon us.
And cheers to Bristol Palin for saying it's OK to be pro-choice, keep the baby, and stand up to ultra-right wing nut jobs like her mother who push an agenda of fear and misinformation on the youth.

Fascioliasis is a parasitic zoonotic infection caused by two trematode species: Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. Both are leaf-shaped and large enough to be visible to the naked eye. As the name suggests, F. gigantica is slightly more conspicuous in size, and can reach 5 centimeters in length.
In the American continent, the only species transmitted is F. hepatica. Information on the burden of fascioliasis in humans and its geographical distribution is however limited. In 1995, WHO estimated that approximately half of the 2.39 million infected individuals globally were living in three Latin American countries (Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru) [1]. The Andean highlands represent the most endemic areas of the world, with high levels of prevalence of infection among indigenous communities [2,3].
The adult worm lives in the bile ducts of infected humans or animals (usually cattle or sheep, but also donkeys and pigs, llamas and alpacas) and lays eggs that are passed in faeces. If the faeces reach freshwater sources, the worm's eggs hatch into larvae called miracidia. Miracidia find their way to particular type of lymnaeid water snails that act as intermediate host. In the snail, miracidia reproduce and generate another type of larvae, called cercariae, which are released into the water. Cercariae swim to nearby aquatic or semi-aquatic plants where they stick to the stem and leaves and form small cysts (metacercariae). Transmission to other animals and humans occurs when the plants, with the cysts attached, are ingested, acting as carriers of the infection. After ingestion, the metacercariae excyst in the duodenum giving rise to young worms that migrate through the intestinal wall, the peritoneal cavity, and the liver tissue into the biliary ducts, where in a few months they develop into adults and start laying eggs, thus closing the cycle [4].
The clinical picture of human fascioliasis can be divided in two phases: acute and chronic [4]. The acute phase is elicited by the migration of young worms through the hepatic tissue. It can last from weeks to months after ingestion of the metacercariae and is characterized by fever, nausea, hepatomegaly (swollen liver), abdominal pain, urticaria and eosinophilia. Internal bleeding is common. The chronic phase begins when the worms reach the bile ducts. Colic pain and jaundice are common and caused by the intermittent obstruction of the bile ducts by the adult worm. Chronic infection of the duct walls and of the surrounding liver tissue is associated with fibrosis. Pancreatitis, gallstones and bacterial superinfections are also common. Anaemia is invariably present. The chronic phase can last several years, and be as long as the life span of the adult worms in the human organism. Children usually suffer from a more severe clinical picture, in reason of the smaller size of their organs and the consequent larger relative size of the worms.
A suggestive clinical picture and a history of consumption of raw vegetables can orientate the diagnosis. Watercress is one of the most frequent carrier plants, but many are in fact suitable. Microscopic identification of eggs in stool samples remains the most widely used diagnostic technique, even though it can give falsely negative results in the acute phase. Tests relying on detection of circulating antibodies or of antigens in serum and stool samples are available and useful, especially in the acute phase, but often poorly standardized. Imaging techniques such as ultrasound are helpful complementary tools [4].
Triclabendazole (TCZ) is the only WHO-recommended medicine for treatment of human fascioliasis. The recommended dosage is 10 mg/kg, single administration. A double dose (20 mg/kg) can be administered in case of treatment failures [4,5,6].
In areas where there appears to be a clustering of cases of human fascioliasis, the possibility of administering TCZ in preventive chemotherapy, population-based interventions should be considered. In this case, targeted treatment of school-age children (5-14 years), or universal treatment of the entire population living in those areas, are both appropriate options. The aim of preventive chemotherapy interventions with TCZ is to control morbidity associated with fascioliasis by reducing the worm burden of infected individuals. In order to impact on transmission, however, health education and veterinary public health measures should also be implemented [6].
TCZ is donated free-of-charge to endemic countries by the Swiss pharmaceutical company Novartis Pharma AG, through WHO [7]. A number of countries across the world have already taken advantage of the donation. In the Americas, control of human fascioliasis through treatment with TCZ is implemented in the highlands of Bolivia and Peru, where entire communities are targeted at regular intervals [4,7].

Actually, there was nothing wrong with Dixon and Jones. I just didn't connect with his "Felon Girlfriend" song and would have liked to have heard more from Jones.
Hour two, of course, was what most people in the room came to see: Mary Chapin Carpenter and Shawn Colvin.
It was a funny thing. The two played a full hour of music that seemed to be aimed directly at the hardcore Colvin and/or Carpenter fans -- these would be the folks who have all the records and not just the ones with Grammy Awards attached to them in some way.
For the most part, the pair stayed away from their better-known material, played newer works and covers of songwriters they admire, like Steve Earl and Lefty Frisell. Toward the end, Colvin brought out "Round of Blues" from "Fat City" and the pair tore through Carpenter's 1993 hit "The Hard Way," which was probably the highlight of the set, if only to watch Carpenter feeding Colvin the lyrics.
It was one part of the show the folks listening at home would never catch.
While I got the feeling a lot of people were waiting to hear "Sunny Came Home" or "Passionate Kisses" or "I Feel Lucky," they took what they could get and were glad to get it. That second hour seemed a little drowsy, but it was all good stuff and everybody knew it.

Russell Stover Peppermint Bark Billion Dollar Santa Chocolate Bars: 18-Piece Box
Pin It
We know Santa's elves make all of the Christmas presents in his workshop, but have you ever wondered where the raw material for the toys comes from? Clearly they can't manufacture everything in that little studio -- magical or not, they've got to get their supplies from somewhere. And the material for all those toys must cost a fortune!
Because of this, Santa deals in big bucks. So big, in fact, that he had to create his own Santa currency, putting his own face right on the red and white one billion dollar bill. But the best part about this cash is that, unlike regular money, it's made of peppermint bark -- a combination of rich white and dark chocolates, dotted with sweet nuggets of peppermint!
We have it on good authority that chocolate is actually legal tender in the North Pole, so grab yourself a box of these bars and get ready to indulge upon the only currency that's guaranteed to melt in your mouth.

Depth: 1/4 Inch

How LinkedIn Can Transform Your Job Search
If you're going to use just one social networking site in your job search, it should be LinkedIn.
It works like this: You start by creating a professional profile—essentially a less formal version of your resume—and then connect your profile to the profiles of other people you know. Once you connect to someone, you can then look at the profiles of the people they're connected to, as well as anyone those people are connected to—providing three degrees of separation outward.
[See 10 Smart Ways to Use Social Media in Your Job Search.]
How to make contacts on LinkedIn
Simply being on LinkedIn and setting up connections to current and past colleagues, clients, classmates, and friends will likely give you a much larger network than you ever realized you had. Here's why:
Let's say that you have 100 connections. They, collectively, have 10,000 connections. And when you add in the people they're connected to, suddenly your network is one million people. One million people available to help in your job search is pretty powerful.
You might be thinking you don't have 100 connections. But you can use the site's search tool to find and connect with past coworkers, clients, and classmates. And this goes two ways: Once you're on LinkedIn, former colleagues and classmates will likely start finding you as well.
[See 6 Ways to Boost Your Job Search on LinkedIn.]
How to utilize your contacts
Once you set up all those contacts, you can use them in several ways:
Referrals: Let's say you're applying for a job. Wouldn't it be great if someone could actually introduce you to the hiring manager? You can check LinkedIn to see if you have any pathways to that person. You might learn, for instance, that your neighbor's former coworker works at that company—information you'd probably never otherwise never learn—and then you ask your neighbor to facilitate an introduction.
Background information: Now let's say you have an interview. You can learn a ton about your interviewer by reading his or her LinkedIn profile first. You might be able to open your interview by mentioning that you both know Joe Smith, or that you both participated in AmeriCorps, which is information you probably wouldn't otherwise have and which can help establish rapport right off the bat.
Or you might find someone in your network who works at the company, used to work there, or is connected to someone who works there. By reaching out to them for insight, you might be able to walk into your interview knowing the company's culture, its key players, and what they're looking for in a new hire.
[See How to Use Twitter to Land a Job.]
Building your expertise: LinkedIn also has thousands of alumni, industry, and professional groups to participate in, offering endless conversation on topics in your field. You can use these groups to build your knowledge, establish yourself as an expert in your field, and get access to experts in your industry (thus building even more connections from the people you meet by participating in these groups).
Even if you're not a big fan of social networking in general, if you're job-searching or think you ever might be in the future, LinkedIn can be a huge help.

Barberton, OH
full story
About Gene Thomas
Gene and Debbe were a pseudo-pop/country duo hailing from Nashville, Tennessee. They had some brief successes on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart. Gene Thomas (born Gene Thomasson on 28 December 1938, Palestine, Texas, died 26 August 2012 in Fredericksburg, Texas) and had some minor success in the early 1960s with the songs "Sometimes" and "Baby's Gone". After the latter, he dabbled in writing music for a few years. His songs have been performed or covered by numerous other country singers. After a few years, Gene met with aspiring crooner, Debbe Neville, (or Nevills as some sources say). In an Everly Brothers style of harmonizing, they launched a career at Acuff-Rose music, singing romantic country style pop melodies. They were signed to a recording contract with the subsidiary of Hickory Records (Sue Thompson, Don Gibson, The Newbeats etc.), TRX, where they recorded their two biggest hits, "Go With Me" and "Playboy". The latter had an eventual combined sales figure of one million discs being awarded a gold record in June 1968. After hitting the charts with "Playboy" at No. 17, they both faded into chart (but not musical) obscurity. The couple produced one album Hear and Now (cataloge number TRX LPS 1001) in 1968, which is a rarity to find. It contains the single "Playboy". Gene Thomas died on August 26, 2012 of lung cancer at the age of 74.

In Switzerland, activists have delivered enough signatures to the government to trigger a public referendum on an audacious proposal: the government would provide a monthly income to every citizen, no strings attached. As Annie Lowrey writes in "Switzerland's Proposal to Pay People for Being Alive" for The New York Times Magazine:
Every month, every Swiss person would receive a check from the government, no matter how rich or poor, how hardworking or lazy, how old or young. Poverty would disappear. Economists, needless to say, are sharply divided on what would reappear in its place — and whether such a basic-income scheme might have some appeal for other, less socialist countries too.
Other, less socialist countries — including the United States. She writes: "Certain wonks on the libertarian right and liberal left have come to a strange convergence around the idea — some prefer an unconditional 'basic' income that would go out to everyone, no strings attached; others a means-tested 'minimum' income to supplement the earnings of the poor up to a given level." It's a system that some argue would work better and be more fair than the current "patchwork of benefits," while streamlining government. "Hello, basic income; goodbye, H.U.D."
Thus, the argument for this most liberal-sounding of solutions from Charles Murray of the conservative American Enterprise Institute, who "suggested guaranteeing $10,000 a year to anyone meeting the following conditions: be American, be over 21, stay out of jail and — as he once quipped — 'have a pulse.' "
Not that $10,000 a year would be enough for most families to live on, and that's intentional: most proposed "basic income" or "guaranteed income" programs are designed to supplement, not replace, a paycheck. When Canada tried offering a "Mincome" to anyone living below the poverty line in Dauphin, Manitoba, for four years in the 1970s:
Only two segments of Dauphin's labour force worked less as a result of Mincome—new mothers and teenagers. Mothers with newborns stopped working because they wanted to stay at home longer with their babies. And teenagers worked less because they weren't under as much pressure to support their families. The end result was that they spent more time at school and more teenagers graduated. (from The Dominion)
After reading Annie Lowrey's excellent analysis of the economic pros and cons to the various guaranteed income ideas, I set aside my own gut reaction (which involved the words "crazy" and "communist" and was scarcely a reasoned approach) to contemplate what a guaranteed income could mean for parents and for families.

Phylicia Barnes' funeral set for Saturday in Georgia
CONYERS, Ga. (AP) - Phylicia Simone Barnes is being remembered as a caring, unique girl with a bright smile who was born to succeed.
Family and friends said goodbye Saturday to the North Carolina teen whose body was found months after she went missing while visiting family in Baltimore. The service was held at a church in Georgia.
The 16-year-old from Monroe, N.C., went missing Dec. 28. Last month her body was found in the Susquehanna River, an hour's drive from Baltimore.
Authorities are investigating her death as a homicide, but have not released the cause.
Barnes' pastor says she was born to succeed and willing to put in the work.
Leaders from her high school say Barnes was both respectful and a master of having fun. They plan a scholarship in her name.
A memorial service for Barnes is set for May 14 at Mount Pleasant Church in Baltimore.

Childhood Obesity
Computers, television, and video games conspire to keep kids inside and sedentary, which means they burn fewer calories and are more likely to gain weight.
Although there are some genetic or hormonal causes of childhood obesity, in most cases excess weight is due to overeating and under-exercising. Children require extra calories to fuel their growth and development; if they taken in the appropriate amount of calories, they should add pounds in proportion to their growth. But if they consume more calories than they're burning off, the result will be unnecessary weight gain. Childhood obesity is almost always a result of a number of factors working together to increase risk. These include:
Diet: Unhealthy lunch options and regular consumption of high-calorie foods, like fast food, cookies and other baked goods, soda, candy, chips and vending machine snacks contribute to weight gain. Snacking is another major culprit: new research shows that American children are snacking more than ever before -- sometimes almost continuously throughout the day -- accounting for up to 27% of their daily caloric intake. Between 1977 and 2006, children increased their caloric intake from snacks by an average of 168 calories/day, up to a total of 586 calories. The largest increase was found in children aged 2 to 6, who consumed an extra 181 snack calories per day compared to two decades earlier.
Lack of physical activity: Computers, television, and video games conspire to keep kids inside and sedentary, which means they burn fewer calories and are more likely to gain weight. Concerns about the safety of outside play and a reliance on cars instead of walking – even to the corner store – don't help matters. By preschool age, many kids are already lacking enough activity, which often translates into poor exercise habits later in life.
Questionnaire: Is your young child active enough?
Questionnaire: Is your older child active enough?
Environment: If a child opens up the refrigerator or kitchen cabinets and is greeted by bags of chips, candy bars and microwave pizza, then that's likely what they will eat. Similarly, if you keep your fridge stocked instead with tasty cut-up fruits and veggies (berries, baby carrots, red pepper strips) with low-fat ranch dip, low-fat yogurt and higher-fiber granola bars, then they will go for the healthier fare (rather than eat nothing at all). Don't feel like you need to deny children all treats, but strive for a healthy balance.
Psychological factors: Like adults, some kids may turn to food as a coping mechanism for dealing with problems or negative emotions like stress, anxiety, or boredom. Children struggling to cope with a divorce or death in the family may eat more as a result.
Genetics: If your child was born into a family of overweight people, he/she may be genetically predisposed to the condition, especially if high-calorie food is readily available and physical activity is not encouraged.
Socioeconomic factors: Children from low-income backgrounds are at increased risk for childhood obesity since low-income parents may lack the time and resources necessary to purchase and prepare healthy foods (versus fast food, which is cheaper and more readily available in low-income communities), join a gym or otherwise encourage physical activity. Because safety is a big issue in poorer communities, playing outdoors may not be a viable option.
Medical conditions: Though not common, there are certain genetic diseases and hormonal disorders that can predispose a child to obesity, such as hypothyroidism, (when the thyroid gland, located in the neck just below the voice box, is underactive and does not release enough of the hormones that control metabolism), Prader-Willi syndrome (a genetic disorder affecting the part of the brain that controls feelings of hunger) and Cushing's syndrome (a disorder in which your body is exposed too much of the hormone cortisol from overproduction in the adrenal glands or use of medications such as those for asthma).
Sleep: In a review of studies in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood, researchers found that kids who sleep less than the recommended amount of about 13 hours a day at age 2 are more likely to be obese at age 7. One reason: Fatigue alters the levels of appetite-regulating hormones [http://www.parenting.com/article/Pregnancy/Behavior/A-Surprising-Cause-of-Child-Obesity], which can cause children to eat more.

Will Be Collecting: New Ninja Turtle Action Figures
These are pics of the just-announced action figure line from Nickelodeon's new TMNT animated series. I will be collecting them all. And if you're a kid and I meet you in the toy aisle and there's only one Michelangelo left I WILL fight you for him. And if you try snatching the figure and running I'll chase you down on a children's bicycle and peg you with one of those bouncy balls they keep on the cages at the end of the aisle. And if you go crying to your mom I'm gonna tell her I caught you trying to stuff Matchbox cars in your pockets and then make my way to the checkout while she's teaching you a lesson about stealing. The point is I've got all my bases covered. You're better off with a LEGO set anyways.

The papier-mâché volcano is a real classic, but there are many other ways to make an even more exciting and interesting science project focused on volcanoes!
To get started on your own volcano-based science project, you will want to first have an understanding of how volcanoes form. This is related to tectonic plates. The entire outer shell of the Earth, known as the lithosphere, is made up of tectonic plates that are constantly moving. There are seven or eight large tectonic plates and many more minor ones. The low parts of the plates are beneath the world's oceans, and the high parts of the plates are landmasses. New plate material is generated at deep sea ocean ridges in a process called sea-floor spreading. Material from plates is also recycled at trenches, where dense, oceanic crust dives back underneath an adjacent plate towards the upper mantle. This subduction of one plate beneath another can provide the massive force to produce uplift of mountain ranges. Overall, where tectonic plates meet and bump together, it is common to find mountains, mid-ocean ridges, earthquakes, and volcanic activity. (What forms depends on how exactly the tectonic plates are moving against each other at the plate boundary.)
The theory of plate tectonics was actually long debated, and detailed mapping studies of cooled molten rocks helped clinch the case. Rocks containing magnetic material reveal the history of when and where they formed. As the molten rocks cooled, the magnetic particles aligned themselves with the Earth's magnetic field at that time. Armed with that information, geologists have been able to map the dates of origin of the oceanic crust, and to confirm that sea-floor spreading at suboceanic ridges and subduction at trenches is a constant process. Although the mechanism for the motion of the tectonic plates is still not well understood, it is thought that convection of heat from the Earth's core is somehow involved.
In this geology science project, you will investigate an aspect of volcanoes, such as by mapping volcanic activity, predicting volcanic eruptions, or developing a realistic volcano model. Which volcanoes are active volcanoes, and just how active are they? Where are the most dangerous volcanoes located? Does volcanic activity follow a certain pattern, such as based on time or location? Does this correlate with the presence of tectonic plates? Can you develop a more dynamic and accurate volcano model based on your understanding of how volcanoes function? You could do your science project on other parts of volcano-based science, such as eruption warning systems, volcanic minerals, and volcanic gases. What are the best monitoring strategies for predicting volcanic activity and developing a useful warning system? Which types of gases come out of a volcano? To find out more about volcanic activity, how to predict volcanic eruptions, and to view data about current and historical volcanic activity, you can visit the United States Geological Survey (USGS) website listed in the Bibliography in the Background tab.

Posted by Reviewer1504175 From North Carolina on Mar 04, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
This is completely and totally disgusting, which was really surprising based on all the positive reviews that mention taste. It's *extremely* chalky, and you can feel the "bits" going down your throat. I know I could mix it with more than the 8 to 12 oz of water that's recommended, but that would just prolong the drink -- and still have the bland, chalky taste going down -- so I just mix it as directed and suck it up. It's truly gross, and I can't wait until it's gone. I've tried it with some drops of lemon juice with the water, that makes it kind of like an alka seltzer thing (so long as you add closer to 8 oz than 12 for each rounded tsp), and it's rather tolerable then. But it doesn't dissolve well. I mix and mix and mix and mix... If you let it sit for even 10 seconds, you see it separate from the water and even sit on the bottom of the spoon if you leave it in the glass with the solution. I just give up on this one. It's like a horrible mixture of chalk (and it leaves the icky, powdery, chalky residue all around your cup/glass and at the bottom of it, too.) In fairness, it *does* have a mild taste, but it's still mildly *disgusting,* you can *feel* the bits going down no matter how much you mix, and it's still gross. It DOES work well (I can feel it hit my system), but it's so gross, I won't buy again.

Awh, How Cute: Subatomic Particle Plushies
So how can we dispel the fear that the world is going to be sucked into a black hole by the CERN Large Hadron Collider and leave us all to eat in the dark? Ooh, I know -- subatomic particle plushies! That's right folks, the Particle Zoo is now selling all your favorite particles. They're $9 apiece and can be purchased separately or in sets (that's not even all of them in the picture there). Each is packed with a material appropriate for their mass (lighter ones filled with foam, heavier ones with gravel). Whee! I love soft things. But be warned: the last time I thought I was bringing a charm quark home she turned out to be strange. I did get to see her photons though.

text: NAIS Business Plan Strategy Implemented by USDA USDA will provide RF eartags for TB control program. Published on: Apr 16, 2008 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Story RSS Permalink Print The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service has implemented a key strategy from its Business Plan to Advance Animal Disease Traceability by providing National Animal Identification System compliant "840" radio frequency eartags to animal health officials for use in the bovine tuberculosis control program. NAIS-compliant "840" tags provide for individual identification of livestock through a 15-digit number beginning with the U.S. country code. Through the use of radio frequency identification technology, the "840" tags allow animal health officials to electronically identify an animal. This increases the efficiency of animal disease investigations that involve the tracing of exposed and potentially infected animals. USDA has purchased 1.5 million "840" RF animal identification tags to support animal disease control programs, including the bovine TB and brucellosis programs. "Using NAIS-compliant tags with RF technology establishes a consistent data format across our animal disease programs. It will also increase the efficiency and accuracy of the on-ground animal health task force conducting bovine TB testing and response," says Bruce Knight, undersecretary for marketing and regulatory programs. "This effort supports a key strategy outlined in our business plan and is another step toward reaching NAIS's ultimate goal of 48-hour traceability."

I would like to consider myself hip, considering I grew up on 2pacs
Greatest hits and candy cigerrettes. I daydream about the day pop
and popcorn cost less than five bucks at a movie theatre, and
wonder if I'll ever be able to move to Mars (although it seems
awfully red and boring now that I think of it). I'm simple at the
core, but complex in my daily routines. Otter pops and Ninja Turtes
are what I miss most as a child, and if I could ever meet a
celebrity it would be Audrey Hepburn. We were meant to get married,
but she was born in the wrong decade. With that said, I call
Portland, Oregon home now. The winter mist and stormy winters make
me feel important, like a writer or artist. The summers make me
feel reckless and alive like a sinner. It's the perfect medium.

What I'm doing with my life
Good question. What am I doing with my life? I graduated college
and am a visual designer at an advertising agency. I travel and

enjoy my lazy days as well, but they only come along sp often. So
what am I doing in life? Important things I assure you.
I'm really good at
I have so many wonderful talents. I can make unique sound effects.
I can eat really fast. Sometimes I miss the straw when I go in for

I spend a lot of time thinking about
My mind is a reckless machine. I don't spend much time thinking
about any single thing. I'm passionate about so much in life, so my

do enjoy a nostalgic memory from time to time though.
On a typical Friday night I am

I'm afraid of dolls that have movable eyelids.

It's one of the most popular album covers from the '60s and is reprinted and reposted nearly everywhere imaginable nowadays. It's time The Velvet Underground and Nico's popular self-titled debut from 1967 will be treated to a deluxe reissue to celebrate the record's 45 anniversary. On October 1st, the album will come out on Universal and you can run out and get your hands on the new six disc set at Newbury Comics or your own local record store.
In addition to the regular takes, there are alternate mixes on the records as well as live recordings, practice sessions, and more. The set will also include both stereo and mono versions of the album, Nico's 1967 solo debut, Chelsea Girl, and a live show from Columbus, Ohio (the location is a little random, but still exciting). Rare cuts "Miss Joanie Lee" and "Walk Alone" – along with several other songs – were recorded in a January 1966 rehearsal at Andy Warhol's Factory and will also be on the set. All in all, it looks like the six disc set won't filled with the nonsense and trivial changes often seen in reissue sets.
We still have to wait a few more months until it's released, but The Velvet Underground and Nico 45th Anniversary Deluxe Reissue will definitely be worth checking out!

Social Connects
I've been told there is no "genetic relationship" between theologies that conceptualize God as all-controlling, all-determining, and utterly unfeeling and the political, cultural oppression of human beings in societies set up by adherents of such views.
I've been told theologies that teach God "ordains" the unjust circumstances under which some human beings suffer (while others prosper) and "predestines" those circumstances hasn't been used as justification for continued injustice and oppression.
I've been told that people can have "good theology" and yet own human beings like chattel, deem them less than human, and brutalize them. Such actions, they say, don't reflect the slave-owners' conception of God at all.
But I think we all know Thomas Paine was right when he said, "Belief in a cruel God makes a cruel [person]."
Well, I'm proud to say at least two eminently qualified Christian theologians have had the intellectual integrity and courage to make the case for just such a "genetic" link, and to refute this classic copout with a clear argument from history, sociology, and politics.

Howdy!I'm hoping that I can find some help here
On New Year's Eve my hubby decided that we would all get new cell phones. This time he decided that he and our oldest would get the same kind o cell phone and that our teen and I wold get the same kind of phone. Surprising, he let our teen and myself get smartphones! I had checked the ones our carrier has and decieded that I wouldn't go an iPhone. Well that and the majority of my friends have all told me to stay away from the iPhone for around here.
So that left us with a small group to choose from. Price wise we decided on the Alcatel One Touch 995A. It's not too bad, and we get 30 days to use it and decide if we like it or not. But there are some things I have questions about and other things I am wondering about. My teen and I are new to the smartphone world so any advice would be great!!
I do have one question to start off, but I[m not sure where to put it. Is there a way to save and use the images that I sent by my tracfone to my smartphone? I'd like to use some of the pictures for my contacts.
Thanks in advance! And if anyone could plese let me know which forum to post my questions to I'd appreciate that, too Our phone uses GINGERBREAD_ALUS_2.0 - 01-07-2013, 05:48 PM Thread Author #2
