Osteoporosis treatment may involve medication along with lifestyle change. A Mayo Clinic specialist answers some of the most common questions about osteoporosis treatment.
Subscribe to our Osteoporosis Insight e-newsletter to stay up to date on osteoporosis topics.
If you're undergoing osteoporosis treatment, you're taking a step in the right direction for your bone health. But you might have many questions about your therapy. Is the medication you're taking the best one for you? How long will you have to take it? Why does your doctor recommend that you take a weekly pill when your friend takes a pill only once a month?
Kurt Kennel, M.D., a specialist in endocrinology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., answers common questions about osteoporosis treatment in women and describes how osteoporosis medications work.
Bisphosphonates are the most common medications prescribed for osteoporosis treatment. These include:
Hormones, such as estrogen, and some hormone-like medications approved for preventing and treating osteoporosis, such as raloxifene (Evista), also play a role in osteoporosis treatment. However, fewer women use estrogen replacement therapy now because it may increase the risk of heart attacks and some types of cancer.
Bisphosphonates slow the bone breakdown process. Healthy bones are in a state of continuous breakdown and rebuilding. As you get older, and especially after menopause when your estrogen levels decrease, the bone breakdown process accelerates. When bone rebuilding fails to keep pace, bones deteriorate and become weaker. Bisphosphonates basically put a brake on that. These drugs effectively preserve or maintain bone density during menopause — and decrease the risk of breaking a bone as a result of osteoporosis.
Drugs in the bisphosphonate class are more alike than they are different. Some studies show differences in potency or effectiveness at maintaining bone density, but they're all still effective drugs. All bisphosphonates have been shown to reduce the chance of a fracture. The decision to take one drug over another often is based on:
Your doctor might recommend a monthly dose of medication if it's going to be better tolerated or better accepted. But if you're the type of person who might forget to take your medicine every month, you might do better taking it once a week.
The main side effects of bisphosphonate pills are:
To ease these potential side effects, take the medication on an empty stomach with a tall glass of water. And don't lie down or bend over for 30 to 60 minutes to avoid the medicine washing back up into the esophagus. The majority of women who follow these tips don't experience these side effects. But it's possible for an unlucky few who take the medicine correctly to still have stomach upset or heartburn.

Im new to this forum, but need some advice and opinions. So ill get straight to the point. I bought some new components, and put together a new tower using my old mother board, so far it has worked fine no problems at all. But my 7970 seems slower than it should be and im wondering if anyone else has experienced this or why i am.
My old rig:
PSu:700 CiT MoBo: ATx, M4A88TD-V/USB3 880G
GPU: 5770 1GB Sapphire edition CPU: athlon x4 @ 3GHZ
HDD: 500GB RAM:8Gb xms3 corsair
New Rig:
PSu: powercool 650 Hybrid modular MoBo: same as before
GPU: 7970 powercolor edition (1.1GHz) (1425Mhz[5.7gbps])
HDD: 500gb HDD: 1TB RAM: same as before.
Im not sure whats going on, i may just format everything and start over. The 7970 is factory set to that OC. Any suggestions is great thanks.
In that case if it is the PSU what wattage is sufficient for the 7970?
500.. 1TB of RAM? Where can I get it!
Its not just much how many watts,the amperage on the 12v rail(s) is important.
A good quality 600w can have ample amperage.

I thought I would throw my 2 cents into the ring as to my impressions of the iPad now that I've had it for some time. Here are a few things to know about me before I proceed:
1. I have never owned an apple product before
2. My home computer is a HP with Windows 7 which I really love
3. I bought the 32GB, 3G model
4. I had a netbook that I had bought almost a year ago. I sold that to help cover a fraction of the costs of the iPad
5. I am rarely a first-mover for anything. I like to make smart purchases and that usually involves waiting for reviews of a potential purchase and watching its track record.
I'll just cut to the chase right off the bat and let you know that I have no regrets about my purchase. I like the iPad. It beats the crap out of my netbook (except for one aspect), and is superior to a laptop in my opinion as well. The only major issue I have with the device, particularly as it pertains to recommending it to others, is the price. I'm not sure that its value justifies the price. However I had the money to spend, and if money were not a concern, then I can't recommend this enough.
Let's touch on the bad points:
1. MS Office alternatives. I'll be blunt here, the apple products -- as well as the slightly inferior Office HD products -- feel like demos of the MS Office counterparts. I'll use Excel as an illustration of this. There was a file I wanted to import into the iPad from Excel 2007. The iPad did import the file, but cannot support the following: validation, pivot tables, filtering, named references, some formatting, some formulas, etc. I would describe myself as a power excel user, and the limitations of Numbers and Office HD is immediately notable. Taken on its own merits, Numbers is not that bad and does have a nice feel. But Excel it is not. And for only this reason do I think that netbooks and laptops have an advantage over the iPad. To put it another way, productivity software generally is best served on a desktop, and if you can live with the limitations of a mobile device, then the iPad is fine. But I would never replace my work notebook with an iPad.
2. Apps crash. Most apps do not crash. But many do. It's common enough that I'd say I get 3-4 crashes a week. To crash simply means the app stops working and you are returned to the home screen. There's no additional damage beyond that. And you can always just go back into the app that crashed. Still, it's annoying.
3. Multitasking. This will be fixed later this year, but for now it does limit the device. I don't use multitasking all that much, but there have been times when I would like two apps open at the same time (e.g. dictionary.com and Pages as I write).
Let's touch on the bad points others have mentioned that don't really matter at all:
1. Printing. Actually you can print. I have an app called Print Central. It allows me to print e-mails and images, and I believe files as well but I haven't used that functionality. My printer is connected to my router, and the iPad can send print jobs over wifi. Technically the printing is limited and you do have to close one app to get to the print app, but really, it's functional enough. By the way, if you hold onto the home button and then press the power button and release, it will take a screen print of whatever you are looking at. Print Central can then print that image. Nice.
2. USB port. I love USB ports, but you can move things to the iPad wirelessly, so who needs one? I use an app called Air Sharing HD. It allows you to see a drive on your desktop computer and you can move files back and forth that way (from that app only, not from other apps). As for as other apps, usually you can just e-mail documents to yourself to move your files. There really isn't that much file movement to do with an iPad, so this functionality is adequate.
3. A camera. Really? Really? Do you how many devices I have that have a camera? I'll pass on another one, thank you. I guess a camera would be cool for video conferencing, but I don't want to video conference. Isn't that the advantage of being on the phone, you don't have to worry about your looks!
I'm just going to touch on the good points, as covering them all will take too long.
1. Internet browser. Here's the deal, in order to get on the internet with my netbook, I needed to boot my computer, let it launch with anti-virus, and perhaps load any updates that came around since I booted up my netbook last. The result, it would take over 2 minutes to start browsing. Or to put it another way, I could just go upstairs to my desktop without the hastle. To launch from my iPad in stand-by mode? 4 seconds maybe, and that's assuming I have to reestablish the wifi connection. Browsing is great, and no, I don't miss flash. I don't generally watch video clips, so it isn't an issue for me.
2. Oh my, look at all those apps. I have 135 right now. Most are free. True, some apps I've only used once and may never go to again. But more than you would think are useful. And most apps have a "fun" element I just can't describe with words. In a way, that's the best part of the iPad, it's just plain fun.
3. iBooks. I got rid of my eReader. I loved my eReader, but iBooks is fine. My main concern had been the back lighting, but set to it's lowest levels in the dark it works great does not appear to be straining my eyes. My light for my sony reader would have a glare which was worse than the back lighting, or would leave patches too dark. Most classic works are free, and the built-in dictionary allows me to look up words without losing the flow of the story. I mocked iBooks when I first learned of it. No more.
4. Games. Let's be honest. The iPad does not compete with Desktop computers, PS3s, or XBOX 360s. It just does not have the graphical oomph or complexity to hang with the big boys. But this device does hold its own with the DS and the PSP. In fact, the difference between the PSP and the iPad for games is that I actually use the iPad. From what I know about the DS, that device is probably the best handheld gamer on the market, but the iPad holds its own.
In conclusion, if price and productivity are not that important to you, the iPad is a must buy. It doesn't feel like a first mover product, it feels like a mature device, albeit still waiting for enough "killer apps" of its own, but it can borrow from the iPhone and do just fine for now. Some will decry my critique about productivity on the device, that it's just fine for the work they do. I am sure this is true. For me, there is no replacement for the desktop computer, and the extent I will use the iPad for productivity (writing, spreadsheets) will be as starters for stuff I will finish on my desktop. But don't get sidetracked on this issue. I didn't use the net book for productivity either, and thus the iPad has replaced that device with no regrets.

Child RestraintsYoung passengers must be restrained in approved child safety seats until they weigh forty pounds or reach the upper weight limit for the car seat. Infants must ride rear-facing until they reach both one year of age and twenty pounds. Children over forty pounds or who have reached the upper weight limit for their forward-facing car seat must use boosters until they reach 4'9" tall or age eight and the adult belt fits correctly. Effective January 2012, the law now allows the continued use of child seats up to the highest weight limit allowed by the seat manufacturer, as an alternative to boosters, for children over forty pounds but under age eight or less than 4'9" tall.

Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2012 Low – January 2013 Colorways
January 13th, 2013 by Aaron Hope | 3 comments
The 2012 Hyperfuse has been quieter than previous editions, so much so that over a third of the way through the NBA season, we're just now seeing the first real world photos of the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2012 Low today. Two simple colorways allow the eye to focus on the swooping ventilation stripe and midsole tooling that's somewhere between an elevation map and woodgrain. Stick with Sneaker News to find out if the Hyperfuse 2012 Low makes its mark on this season's NBA Feet, and check out more photos of these two colorups below.

Why are the Sapim cx ray spokes cost 3x more in Oz - A$10 vs $3 overseas? Is this due to the importer or the markups.
I like those bladed spoke for a pair of custom build wheels but the price from the LBS does not justify.
Will I be rude if I bring my own hub and spokes to the wheelbuilder? He is providing the rim. BTW, what do wheelbuilder charge these days to build a wheel?

Stay Informed Knowledge is power! CanWEA delivers news on the latest developments in the Canadian wind energy industry. Learn more.
Did you know? The radius of each blade of a typical wind farm turbine equals the length of a Boeing 737.

Best Practices
This section provides best practice documents and studies that can be helpful for municipalities who have proposed projects in their area. A well-informed municipality means better informed citizens who are positioned to enjoy the benefits of wind energy.
CanWEA believes wind energy is a benefitial solution for municipalities, Canadians and their environment. Learn more about wind energy best practices for municipalities.
Best Practices for Community Engagement and Public Consultation
CanWEA's Best Practices guide has been created for CanWEA members who have a direct role to play in planning and developing wind energy projects in Canada. While every member company is responsible for establishing its own unique policies, practices and procedures, these guidelines outline a wide range of practices to help ensure wind energy development is approved and is a welcomed addition to the community.
Effective and meaningful community engagement is fundamental to the success of a wind energy project, and introducing the Best Practices Guidelines in Community Engagement and Public Consultation is an important step in our continued effort to improve and strengthen our practices as the wind energy industry grows across Canada.
An Introduction to Wind Energy Development in Canada
An Introduction to Wind Energy Development in Canada is intended as a key tool in providing information to the public and wind energy developers not yet familiar with the Canadian wind development context. It effectively acts as an aid to municipal planners and government officials in broadly understanding wind energy development in Canada.
The guidebook was a joint project involving CanWEA, Tetra Tech and Gowling Lafleur Henderson LLP. It adds to the growing library of guidance documents and best practices for advocates of sustainable wind energy development in Canada.
Position on Setbacks for Large-Scale Wind Turbines in Rural Areas (MOE Class 3) in Ontario We are working with several provinces to develop best practices for setback spaces that address issues of safety and community acceptance. However, we recognize there should not be a one-size-fits-all approach to setbacks. This is why proposed wind installations typically go through several dozen municipal, provincial and federal steps of approval before fully permitted. Everything from flight paths of birds to the possible effect on fished waters is considered in the approval process.
Executive Summary
Assessments of Ice Throw and Blade Failure in Ontario May 2007
Garrad Hassan Canada Inc. (GHC) has been contracted by the Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA) to provide recommendations for assessing the risk of ice fragments shed from wind turbines striking members of the public in the vicinity of wind farm projects in Ontario and provide a literature review of wind turbine rotor blade failures based on publicly available information.
Technical Information and Coordination Process Between Wind Turbines and Radiocommunication and Radar Systems Studies have shown that the rotating blades and support structure of a wind turbine can impact AM (amplitude modulated) RF (radio frequency) signals. FM (frequency modulated) signals are much more immune to this phenomena and may only become impaired in very close proximity to a wind turbine.
Wind Turbines and Birds – A Guidance Document for Environmental Assessment This Guide refers to the environmental assessment (EA) of wind energy installations with respect to birds. The Federal Government of Canada has jurisdiction over migratory birds as defined in the Migratory Birds Convention Act (MBCA) and described in Article 1 of that Act. Other birds, including raptors, blackbirds and their allies, corvids, and some upland game birds are under the jurisdiction of the provinces and territories, as are mammals (including bats), plants, and most other forms of biological diversity. The guidelines in this document are usually relevant to all species of birds, and in some cases may be helpful for some other species (e.g., bats).
Recommended Protocols for Monitoring Impacts of Wind Turbines on Birds The current document has been developed to provide proponents with information on the types of protocols likely to be useful for baseline studies and follow-up monitoring at proposed wind energy sites to evaluate impacts of wind turbines on birds.
Wind Turbines and Sound: Review and Best Practice Guidelines Howe Gastmeier Chapnik Limited (HGC Engineering) was retained by the Canadian Wind Energy Association (CanWEA) to develop a best practice guide for the development of wind turbine generation facilities in Canada with respect to noise.
Canadian Grid Code for Wind Development: Review and Recommendations January 2006 During 2005 it became apparent that Canadian provinces were operating largely in isolation along their own timeframes to develop interconnection requirements for wind turbines and wind farms. Particularly at the transmission level, 69kV and above, this was recognised as likely to lead to different sets or requirements with different rules and stringencies in each province whereas a clear benefit could be seen for the all stakeholders in a process of consultation leading to a unified and common set of interconnection requirements across Canada. Garrad Hassan was commissioned by CanWEA to examine these issues and propose a set of basic common interconnection requirements (a Base Code) and a path for CanWEA to take them forward with stakeholders, notably the provincial utilities and transmission system operators.
Ontario Landowner's Guide to Wind Energy
Issued by: Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (OSEA) Description: Over the past several years, wind developers have been prospecting for windy sites in southern Ontario, predominantly along the shores of the Great Lakes and along the Niagara highlands as possible locations for large wind farms. In many areas rural landowners, especially farmers, have received offers to lease their land from these wind power developers. It became apparent that a written guide for landowners considering wind power development would be a valuable tool.

Greetings All. Anyone know the type of mic used for the Jungle Room sessions? I've read in the past something about an Electrovoice RE 15/16, is this accurate?
I read whole theme and I have one question:
When you go through the pictures of last tour in June 77, it seems that he used different microphones - or better to say, they looks a bit different. Compare visually the one he used on 1st half of this tour (17th to 23rd June), and then the other one he used till the last show. I´m talking for example about these photos (source from elvisconcerts.com site - http://elvisconcerts.com/pictures/c770623.htm) and these http://elvisconcerts.com/pictures/c770626.htm. that black streak on the first one confuses me and another thing - it seems to me, that the head (or better to say windscreen) of 1st mic is larger than on the 2nd one....
Greetings All. Anyone know the type of mic used for the Jungle Room sessions? I've read in the past something about an Electrovoice RE 15/16, is this accurate?
Leroy any chance you could tell me how many times Elvis used a shure58 on stage?
many thanks
San Francisco 13 November 1970: http://www.tcb-world.com/gallery/sho...lets-go&cat=28
?? November 1971: http://www.tcb-world.com/gallery/sho...stoday3&cat=29
So it's 3 different mikes for the november 71 tour, right?
Hi everyone,
First off I want to thank Leroy and the great information he has provided. I became interested in this topic the other day and a google search brought me here. Some of my observations, the microphone he used at the International Hotel (Hilton) is definitely an Electro-Voice RE16, there is no disputing that one. My curiosity peaked with the microphone he used once he started touring, I don't think its an elctro voice but I could be wrong. The microphone in the later years had a smooth handle (the Re-16 doesn't) and was covered by the windscreen that in some pictures was gray and some blue. It appears to be longer in length with the smooth handle and the bottom of the re-16 was solid aluminum, which with the best of efforts I don't think it could have been hidden by the wind screen. In some of the last concert footage it had a black band around it near the top presumably electrical tape, but also noticed there were several of these microphones on stage some with the backup singers and one was on the piano in a desk stand when he did unchained melody. One of the last pieces of evidence I have supporting it being some kind of electro-voice is that clearly the microphone holder on the stand is an EV product, grayish in color. and the pics that Peter posted above when I viewed them the mic appears to flare out to the base of the windscrren indicating to me that its not a RE-16 head underneath the windscreen. I would really love to know what kind of microphone this is that he was using on tour. So I open the floor for discussion, feel free to disagree with what I have said, but would like to find out what kind it is. Thanks....Gary

Peter, I posted a long winded post below to talk about the Microphones, but in the pictures you posted to me, both seem to me to be the same microphone. I mentioned it in my post below, so maybe with the great Leroy we might bat one out of the park and find out what it truly is.
I believe that, back on page 1 of this thread, Leroy posted an entire list of what Elvis used onstage.
That reminds me....where in the world IS Leroy??? I've not seen him around here in FOREVER!!!!!!

I was in The Situation Room not long ago, and some of the conversation there reminded me that I should probably try to advertise for my mafia game before it goes up.
So then, would anybody like to reserve a spot for the Yu-Gi-Oh! All-Stars Mafia?
It will have 25 spots, 8 of which are already taken.

No knowledge of any of the four series is necessarily required... but I won't lie and say that it might not help a tiny bit. But only a little. And that's mainly only if you get one particular role. But I mean, come on, there's only a 1/25 chance of that anyway, so RESERVE! XD
If you'd like to reserve, please shoot me a VM and let me know, so I can add you to the list. Or if you have any questions, feel free to ask through VM or PM.
Come on guys, you all know you want to. I know there are quite a few Yu-Gi-Oh! fans out there.

The university held an essay-writing contest for North Shore elementary, middle and high schools, asking students to write about how MLK's legacy is alive in today's violent world. The winners in the three categories were invited to read their essays at the convocation. Two of the winning essays were written by students from Salem. Kelsey Currier-Dougherty is from the Saltonstall Elementary School and Anibelys Flores is from Salem High.
Martin Luther King Jr. said, "Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." Dr. King specifies that only light and love can bring out the positive. Darkness will forever be darkness unless light and love takes its place.
With positive reinforcement and positive dialogue, we learn to fulfill the light and love within our hearts and within the hearts of others. Using negative dialogue will only continue to bring us down, making us less confident in our communities and environment. Not only that, negativity creates violence, enemies, and crimes,which lead to death. In our daily routines we shouldn't walk around judging each other, we should learn to complement the good and lift spirits up instead of downgrading them.
Over time I've learned that at our weakest point it only gets better. Let's say, if I were in a dark room and I was mad because I never found the light switch to turn on the lights, I'd never open my eyes clearly enough to see what's in front of me. So I'd hate it, until I found the switch and find what I've been looking for, so I can love it. To me Dr. King is saying those exact words; he's basically saying that if we continue to be blind, we get nowhere. There's right and there is wrong. It's a matter of who is willing to love in the light and do right, or else struggle in the darkness and hate and never find what you're truly looking for.
Violence isn't an answer. Today we remember the Columbine massacre in Colorado. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris (the shooters) only saw the darkness and hate in life. As for the life style they lived, they thought violence was the answer and you can see, it only brought more violence and darkness. If we the people showed more love and affection, we would have changed the hate in their darkness and strengthened the love and light left behind by the death of Rachael Scott (a victim), a kind, bright person. Her kindness and politeness made many realize that her mark left behind is to teach that darkness doesn't stomp out darkness. Only love can do that.
She changed many lives in a positive way. Today she inspires the Rachael Challenge, where we as people are able to walk up to someone, even if they are having a bad day or seem to be pushed away by crowds. This gives people the opportunity to improve on communicating and feeling better about one another.
Sometimes, the problems just may be as simple as revenge and envy upon others. Recently, we should still remember the awful Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. The darkness of one man caused the love and light of innocent kids to be no longer present. This darkness not only impacted just one adult, but adults around the nation. It took many from the light and brought them to the darkness. However, by remembering the lives of the bright young children, the darkness has been transformed back into light. Eventually we have to understand the true meaning of that, by showering love instead of hate.
It is crucial to not stay focused in anger. We all should stay focused on love. Instead of thinking that their kids are gone, we think whether they would want us to be upset. We all go through really emotional tough times but it should be the love, bringing us back up into the light. No darkness shall ever bring us down, nor shall it bring us hate. It should push us to going in the right direction.
Love is stronger than hate and with a lot of love you can be bright like the light and make a difference within yourself, others, or even our communities. Darkness will forever be dark, because two negatives don't cancel out. That would be like adding wood to a fire that's only going to get bigger. At the end only an action can make a difference. If I don't look for the light, I am not willing to make a change. Light and love or darkness and hate. Which would you choose?
Anibelys Flores is a student at Salem High School.

Juan Williams - 2011 CSULB Distinguished Speaker
Juan Williams, FOX News political analyst and top Washington journalist, was the featured speaker for the fifth annual Distinguished Speaker Series on October 20, 2011. His keynote address, Muzzled: Political Debate in America, dealt with how the media limits political debate and the continuing role of race in our national dialogue.
Williams is one of America's leading political writers and thinkers, and is a former correspondent for NPR. His well-publicized dismissal from NPR occurred after he commented publicly that Muslims in traditional dress boarding planes made him nervous. In the wake of NPR's controversial decision, he wrote Muzzled: The Assault on Honest Debate, discussing the countless ways in which honest debate in America is stifled.
Prior to his stint at NPR, Williams was an award-winning writer and columnist for more than 20 years at The Washington Post. He is the author of several books, including the acclaimed biography, Thurgood Marshall: American Revolutionary. With an honest and unflinching perspective on American race relations, Williams spurs individuals across the political spectrum to challenge their own assumptions and re-examine the role race plays in this country.

Parking scofflaws, here's your chance to make it right. The town of Huntington has designated April as Parking Ticket Amnesty Month.
From April 1 to April 30, town officials are hoping to recoup about $625,000 in outstanding fines and penalties motorists incurred dating back to Jan. 1, 2005. Those who take advantage of the amnesty will have to pay 60 percent of the total amount owed.
"Not everyone is looking to not just pay the fine, but simply forgot," Town Supervisor Frank Petrone said. "So here's an opportunity for people to pay up and an opportunity for the town to bring in dollars."

SOCIAL: @dsvmorris | @NewsdayTowns | Google+
Petrone said he thinks the town will be able to cut down on the number of outstanding tickets by 50 percent.
The town has hired Hempstead-based Fundamental Business Service Inc. to administer the program, including mailing notices to people with outstanding tickets informing them of the amnesty period. The company administered amnesty programs in Babylon, Brookhaven and Islip.
If by May 1 tickets have not been paid, the full amount in fines and penalties will be due and the ticket holder will be at risk of other enforcement measures, including the possibility of his or her car being "booted" or a lien being filed for the arrears.
Petrone said he hopes people will seize the opportunity to take responsibility.
"When you start adding up the numbers over the years, it's a lot of money," Petrone said.

Herbert Titus
Herbert W. Titus (born October 17, 1937 in Baker, Oregon, United States) is an American attorney, writer, and politician. He was a candidate for Vice-President of the United States in the 1996 U.S. presidential election on the Constitution Party ticket.
Titus holds a law degree (cum laude) from Harvard University and a B.S. degree in Political Science from the University of Oregon, from which he graduated Phi Beta Kappa.
Titus is an active member of the Bar of Virginia and is admitted to practice before the United States Supreme Court, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, the United States Court of Federal Claims, and the United States Courts of Appeals for the Sixth, Tenth, District of Columbia and Federal Circuits.
Titus was the vice-presidential candidate of the Constitution Party (also known as the U.S. Taxpayers Party) in 1996, as the running-mate of Howard Phillips.
After two years as a trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Justice, Titus served from 1964 to 1979 as a professor of law at the State Universities of Oklahoma, Colorado and Oregon. During this time, he was active in various left-wing-based political causes: opposing the war in Vietnam; supporting abortion; and homosexual rights. As a regional director with the American Civil Liberties Union, Titus worked with attorneys and clients on a number of constitutional cases.
In 1975, Titus was dramatically converted to Christ on the last weekend of July. In 1976-77, he studied with Dr. Francis Schaeffer at L'Abri in Switzerland.
In 1979, he left his tenured position as professor of law at the University of Oregon, becoming a member of the charter faculty at the O. W. Coburn School of Law at Oral Roberts University. Three years later, Titus moved to CBN University (later named Regent University), where he served for eleven years, first as the founding Dean of the School of Public Policy and as Vice-President for Academic Affairs and then as the founding Dean of the School of Law.1
Along with Roy Moore, Titus was an original drafter of the Constitution Restoration Act,2 which sought to take out of federal court jurisdiction cases that involved public officials that acknowledged God as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government, and provided for the impeachment of federal judges who disregarded the act. The act did not pass either time it was introduced.

Anyone can articulate on the causes of such a bad weather in US corn belt,more than just "climatte changes" which is the effect. What are the actions of measures right now to avoid these repeated panic to everyone fears for stavation or lost of food?
Is it true that after making ethanol the byproduct can feed the livestock?
"Poultry, beef and pork producers, facing rising feed bills, have called for the mandate to be waived. This would probably not help much."
Well, it is also stated that the crop " is divided in equal parts between ethanol, livestock feed, and export". Aside from the apparent lack of corn being sold to domestic consumers, the implication is that ethanol-production swallows a third or so of America's corn. I think freeing that up would have a significant impact on prices elsewhere...
If we're going to do biofuels, why not an alternative that ISN'T a dietary staple? Huh? Maybe? No? Ok...
Fact is, the USA produces far too much corn that has to be recycled into cows (animals not evolved to consume it), into corn syrup, into ethanol (with ludicrous inefficiency in terms of energy input versus yield) and into a thousand different gums and additives and flavorings that cumulatively make hundreds of millions of people obese. If our own sense of self-preservation can't put a stop to this madness, at least the occasional drought can slow things down a little. We produce and eat far too much corn. Let the drought continue indefinitely.
Let's not take things too far. Say if corn were simply banned from markets, the first world poor and many of the third world would begin to starve - until business offered some sort of alternative, and everyone became obese once again.
We should be circumspect in our approaches to diminishing obesity and related. Simply vilifying and vitiating corn, wheat, soy, beef, pork, sugar, salt, etc. production would be, uh, silly.
I'm with you CA-Oxonian. What the world needs is less genetically grown corn and soybean and less cattle. All three of these things are ruining the environment and our health. Its time farmers turn to more sustainable methods of farming and farming organic produce. We can feed the world but we should choose to do it responsibly. I'm all for the drought wiping out all GE products.
End the corn mandate. Corn ethanol is the dirtiest fuel used in America - and can only become more distasteful as it drives up food prices and leaves the poor to starve.
Divert subsidies to R&D - let farmers feed the market.

Trooper Kammon Hiatt with Utah Highway Patrol took ABC 4 News along during his shift on I-15.
"People are in a rush to get places and tend to speed," Hiatt said. "They don't put their seat belt on and we have more injuries that way."
It didn't take long to spot someone driving not so safe. Someone was pulled over within minutes of our cameras rolling for not wearing a seat belt.
In about an hour, Hiatt pulled over five people. He's just one of several law enforcement on the road.
If you think you might drive past one these troopers unnoticed, think again.
"We definitely have more troopers out," Hiatt added. "We are making sure people stay safe."

This product is of very good quality.
My order was for Christmas for our 12 year old granddaughter. The items arrived in a very good time frame for the holidays. She had gone online and requested these items, so she saw them and liked them in online photos. I was very pleased with the quality of all the items we ordered and want to thank you for helping us make her Christmas nicer. The beret especially was of very good quality. Sometimes it is very hard to tell from a picture, but this did not disappoint as it arrived and we saw how nice it was.

Thank you for reading DVD Catalyst Newsletter 69.
With a lot of stuff out of the way, I managed to get quite a bit accomplished this week. Aside from getting a very large part done for a website a good friend of mine, I finished up a pretty big DVD Catalyst update (both Beta and Official). In addition to that, of this week has seen the release of The Hunger Games on DVD/Bluray and Expendables 2 in the theaters. And last but not least, Samsung released its flagship tablet for this year, the Galaxy Note 10.1.
Tech News:
Amazon has provided the internet with a date for its upcoming press event, Thursday, September 6th. Last year's event we saw, among other things, the release of the Kindle Fire, and of course this year, expectations are high for its successor and, with Barnes and Noble's release of the NOOK Simple Touch GlowLight, an eReader with its own light to make reading in the dark easier, the rumor mill is speculating a Kindle with a light in it as well.
The original Kindle Fire, thanks to its tight integration with other services from Amazon is still one of the devices I enjoy using, so I'm excited to see what Amazon does to improve.
And almost a week after Amazon, Apple is having its major announcement session on the 12th. For many months rumors have been popping up regarding the possibility of the iPhone 5, iPad Mini and an Apple TV being announced, so I'm looking forward to see what Apple will be offering.
Today new rumors popped up mentioning a possibility that this event will not include new iPad information, iPhone 5 event tipped for split from iPad mini on September 12 - SlashGear , which, if true, might give Amazon a bit of extra time in order to gain additional sales.
OnLive, a company that provides access to games by means of streaming from other computers, enabling people to play games that are otherwise not supported on their device, closed shop and re-opened itself not too much later. There are a lot of rumors going around about why, but the whole scenario doesn't look too clean if you ask me.
Last Friday morning, information started appearing on the web about lay-offs at OnLive. Supposedly everything was fine, but by the end of the day, it was announced that OnLive was acquired by a newly-formed company.
To me, the whole ordeal looks rather fishy. This so-called restructuring resulted in killing off the stake investors had in the company. Big name companies, who backed OnLive, providing the funds for them to be what they are, such as HTC, Warner Bross, Autodesk all lost their stakes in the company, but aside from that, a majority of employees, working long hours to get it up and running, received partial payment by means of shares, which now are totally worthless.
Later it was found out that one of the original backers "purchased" the company's assets.
On Forbes.com, an official statement with a Q&A was posted and one thing mentioned there is scary.
"The company is actively seeking additional funding"
With major investors already having lost millions thanks to this restructuring, who in their right mind would provide them additional funds?

Ubisoft Piracy Rate.
Earlier this week, Ubisoft outed that the piracy rate for PC games is 93/95%, and that the "Free2Play" model with ingame purchases is the way of the future.
I chuckled when I read that.
When it comes to PC Games, Ubisoft is notorious for using very severe DRM. A permanent internet connection is often required in order to play one of their games, and of course games need to be activated after purchase in order for them to work, and, especially with big-name releases, their activation servers don't tend to hold up that well, resulting in a lot of people waiting for hours in order to be able to use it.
Because of those limitations and issues, people who want to play their games tend to look for other ways, often downloading so-called "cracks", small patches that eliminate activation systems, CD?DVD checks and the likes.
The reason for my smiling moment when I read the article is even better. I remembered a few years ago that it was Ubisoft themselves who actually distributed one of these cracks to circumvent the copy-protection on one of their own games, Rainbow Six Vegas 2.
The game was offered in both Disc-version and Direct2Drive download version, and unfortunately, when an update patch was released for the game, they "forgot" about the download-version, and a DVD-check was enabled, rendering the game unplayable.
In order to fix the issue, they "obtained" a pirated copy of the game, and distributed the included crack (with some small modifications) to the people who purchased the downloaded version.
So for Ubisoft to claim these high rates of piracy, I'm wondering if these numbers include Rainbow Six Vegas 2.
Personally, I'm not too sure about Free2Play being the solution. I believe that DRM is the problem. You would think that after many years of paying customers complaining about unplayable games that Ubisoft would realize that they are actually pushing people to move towards piracy. If I purchase a new-release game for $60 or so, one I have been waiting all year for, and come home and try and install it and I can't because of connection issues of some sort, of course these people will try and find other means in order to play the game. And of course, for the next game, they will remember and not even bother purchasing the game. This is also one of the main reasons why consoles are more popular for gaming. You buy a game, slide it in the XBOX or PS3, and you are (usually) done.
The thing is, media companies are putting too much focus on piracy, rather than their paying customers. Piracy will always remain, but what they fail to realize is that the majority of people are actually willing to purchase, but just don't want to put up with the crap that prevents them from doing a little more with it. With PC games, being able to play games at a lan-party with friends without having to have a permanent internet connection, with software having the ability to install an application on more than one computer, or with movies, being able to watch it on the go without having to be restricted to certain apps.
If you give your customers some freedom, they will reward you, but by enforcing restrictions upon your paying customers you will push them towards looking into obtaining this freedom using other means.

DVD Catalyst News:
This week, I released two updates for DVD Catalyst 4. The official version has been updated to v4.2.5 and I also updated the public beta of v4.3 to Beta 2.
There was a difference in profiles between the previous official version and the previous beta, making it a bit tricky if you were using the beta and switched back to the official version. With the two updates this week, both versions have the same device profiles.
I tweaked a few things, but the main focus in this update was the addition of a couple of new profiles:
I added a collection of profiles for Yarvik tablets, a popular brand for Android- tablets in Europe. I also included a large amount of Sony's Xperia models, Samsung, (Galaxy Note's and more), Lenovo, and even for the AMP1000 from Diamond Multimedia. All in all, I added about 300 or so new profiles in this version.
Aside from the profiles, I made some changes to the custom subtitles selection dialog (it now opens in the same location as where the video file is located) and the file-transfer dialog, which appeared for devices that didn't work well with it.
Both updates are free for existing users of DVD Catalyst 4. To update the official version, just tap on the cat-eyes in the program, or use your original download link you received upon purchase.
To update the Beta version, go to the "Version Info" tab in Global Settings, and tap on the "Beta" button.

This week, The Hunger Games was released on DVD and Bluray, so, as I usually do with big-release movies, I had to make sure they would convert fine with DVD Catalyst 4.
DVD: The Hunger Games 2012 DVD | Tools4Movies | DVD Catalyst 4
Bluray: The Hunger Games (2012) Bluray | Tools4Movies | DVD Catalyst 4
Aside from that, I also picked up a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and a VTech Innotab2, and posted small guides for them on the website:
DVD to Galaxy Note 10.1 | Tools4Movies | DVD Catalyst 4
DVD to Innotab2 | Tools4Movies | DVD Catalyst 4
Q: Why are there so many device profiles in DVD Catalyst?
A: Unfortunately many devices have certain limitations when it comes to video playback. They use specific video formats, maximum screensize, maximum quality settings etc, and because of these differences, DVD Catalyst 4 contains profiles that correctly set the conversion settings in order to ensure compatibility with that device.
With the market becoming more and more standardized with certain device groups (Android, iOS, Windows Phone etc), and devices becoming more and more powerful, the need for device profiles for newer devices isn't as important as it was with previous generations, however, on a daily basis I receive emails with questions about "I just picked up device X but I don't know what settings to use", so in order to make it as easy as possible for new users, I include profiles for these devices.
Many conversion tools include "Generic" Android and iOS profiles, and while using a similar setup in DVD Catalyst 4 would make things a lot easier for me, the problem with those profiles is that the settings used in those profiles don't always reflect the best settings. Usually the screensize is set smaller than what your device is capable of in order to maintain compatibility with multiple devices, the quality settings might be set to a safe compatibility setting rather than optimized specifically for the device, and in the end, you end up with a video file that just doesn't do justice to your fancy new tablet.
The settings used in the profiles in DVD Catalyst 4 are ones I verified myself. While I do not own every smartphone/tablet/media player that DVD Catalyst 4 has profiles for, I do pick up popular devices that are different in certain ways. When it comes to video, the device group (Apple/Android, Blackberry) plays a large factor in regards of compatibility, but aside from that, also the processor-type used for playing videos makes a huge difference in determining the capability of the device.
Last year, when the Motorola Xoom was first released, people were complaining about 1080p HD video files. In the specifications, it was listed as being fully supported, but on numerous forums and websites people were complaining about 1080p simply not working. Even many similar conversion tool developers claimed it just didn't work, and that the Tegra2 was not capable of 1080p video playback.
So I got myself a Motorola Xoom, and started working with HD video on it, and after a few days, managed to get it working.
Of course the factory specifications of a device are important for determining what types of video something is capable of playing, however, as with the case of the Motorola Xoom, it doesn't always provide enough information in order to get the best possible results, so I made it a habit to pick up devices that are different. If it wasn't for getting a Xoom myself, I wouldn't have been able to get 1080p video to play on it. If I didn't pick up an Innotab, I wouldn't have been able to come up with the proper settings.
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Mini review.
I wasn't too sure last week if I would get one, but aside from the different processor used in the Note 10.1, a feature that I have been wanting for a very long time was added to it as well, multi-screen.
Video-wise, I didn't run into any complications. Using DVD Catalyst 4, I created a variety of different MP4 videos using different settings and resolutions, and it played them all without any complications. Even a 5.5GB 1080p version of The Hunger Games played without hickups (from internal memory). The DVD Catalyst 4 updates from this week has profiles for the Note 10.1, and those are based upon my experiences.
The device itself is a mixed bag.
It feels "cheap". Plasticy, and if you hold it with one hand at the edge, it creaks a bit.
The first night I used it, my wife, whom was playing on the iPad3, asked me "Did you buy another one?", referring to the look being very close to that of the iPad. I chuckled, and mentioned to her that both companies are currently in a lawsuit related to that very question.
Anyway, compared to the iPad, it does look like a cheap knock-off.
But, software-wise, things are a little different.
Of course one of its main features is the S-Pen, but aside from playing a bit with it, I don't use it much. The S-apps that ship with the Note work well, but unfortunately an app such as Sketchbook Mobile doesn't recognize the different pressure levels of the S-Pen (yet).
As mentioned earlier, the Galaxy Note 10.1 is capable of running 2 apps on-screen, at the same time.
or if you are a bit creative, 2 apps AND video playback:
which is really cool.
Not all apps support multi-screen mode, but with a web browser on one side, and video playback on another, it makes it a whole lot more useful and entertaining.
Throughout the week, I have been using it every night, and it has been holding up really well for me. When I am watching a movie on one of my devices, I tend to check emails on a regular basis, and with the Note, I no longer have to use my phone for that, I can do both at the same time on one screen.
Is it worth the $550 (32GB model)?
In my opinion, no.
For me, the Note 10.1 serves multiple purposes. Video-playback aside, Samsung's Touchwiz has been giving me problems in the past in regards of Android (MovieGallery) development, so it will be put to use for that as well. The multi-screen, while I do love it, is currently more of a gimmick. Only Samsung's own apps will work with it, and popular apps such as Gmail and Facebook are best accessed through the web browser rather than their app equivalent. Since most people who would pick up a Galaxy Note 10.1 already own smart phones they can use for informative tasks anyway, I don't see much of an advantage of the Note over other tablets. With last year 10" devices such as the Xoom selling for about half the price, for people who are new to the tablet-market, I would recommend going that way instead.
Tablet line-up for fall 2012:
With upcoming announcements from both Apple (Sept 12th) and Amazon (Sept 6th), which will very likely introduce a new range of tablets, the "premium" line-up for this year will be quite considerable.
Amazon Kindle Fire 2, possibly in a 7" and a 10" version, Apple iPad Mini and the Apple iPad 3, Google Nexus 7, and of course a variety of different tablets from Acer, Asus, Samsung and Toshiba, all have their advantages and disadvantages.
For many people, specifications are quite important, but we are now at a point that for most uses, tablets (and smart phones) that are being released are powerful enough for everything we use them for. Of course there are certain apps and games that push them to their limits, but for most users, even last-generation devices are more than capable of doing whatever they use them for, so for me the added content is where the difference lies.
Of course the Android line up with the Nexus 7, Transformer TF300, Infinity, A700, Galaxy Tab etc combined with Google's store, containing a lot of content aside from apps, is very strong, but Apple's iTunes still provides a larger collection of media such as movies and TV shows, and has a deeper connection with movie studios by means of Digital Copies included with DVDs and Blurays.
But, similar as last year, Amazon is the winner for me here. Unlike Apple and Google (and even the Blackberry movie store) Amazon offers a subscription to a large amount of content. With its "Prime" service ($80/yr) Amazon instantly provides access to its Instant video catalog, which keeps getting more and more content. Earlier this week, they obtained a new deal which added popular series like Heroes and Battlestar Galactica, all free to watch.
The Hunger Games Mini Review
Last Saturday, the Hunger Games was released on DVD and Bluray. Of course I had to make sure both would work fine with DVD Catalyst 4, but I figured I'd give some thoughts about the movie itself as well.
Since we did watch the movie before, my wife didn't feel like watching it again, so I converted the Bluray and watched it on my Galaxy Note 10.1.
Lately I've been using the Blackberry Playbook at nights, so I was a bit spoiled with the screen, but it looked "ok" on the Note.
The movie itself is good, but with it being a book adaption, you can't help but compare it to the book. I enjoyed the book, but with the movie it just felt like it was missing something. I'm not sure if it was shot that way, or if it was caused by the editing process, but it seemed the movie was just a collection of scenes stitched together. At times where there was a flashback to remind the viewer on what happened earlier, it looked like they just copied and pasted that scene again, rather than making it a little different. Also the setup of the movie, until it got to the actual arena, seemed like parts were cut out, and unless you actually read the book, knowing why certain things happened were left in the dark. All in all, it felt like it was done on purpose, in order to leave room for an "Uncut" release that would actually contain the full experience.
I don't believe it was a bad movie, on the contrary, but it basically requires you to read the book to get the full experience.
The Expendables 2 Mini Review
For me, the biggest movie of the year, so of course I had to go see it. My wife had no interest, but (thanks hon) she did endure the movie with me. For me, having all my action favorites from my time in a single movie is like a dream come true.
Of course the movie has gotten mixed reviews. No story line, bad acting and whatever else, but who cares. A movie such as this doesn't need all that. Cheesy stuff like guns never running out of ammo, armies shooting at the main guys from all angles, and the main guys are left standing, thats what I grew up with, and that is what the Expendables movies bring back. Mindless, senseless action, just like the old days, and with guys that don't need to be mentioned with first names, like Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Lundgren, Willis, Van Damme and Norris in the same movie, epic, no other word for it, just epic.

When I went for my free consultation with Dr. Ganchi and got all my questions answered, I felt comfortable that the procedure and implants were safe and that the doctor was very competent. I truly believe that Dr. Ganchi is the best and most qualified plastic surgeon to perform this procedure and I was right based on the great results of my breast implants.
Thrilled with my New Saline Breast Implants - Wayne, NJ
When I went for my free consultation with Dr....
I love my new saline implants and I highly recommend Dr. Ganchi to anyone that is considering breast augmentation! I'd been considering breast implants for a few years, and waited a long time for several reasons - mainly because I wanted to make su re the procedure and implants were safe, and that I needed to find the best and most qualified plastic surgeon to perform the procedure. After doing a lot of research for many months and consulting with one other PS, I was blessed and fortunate to have found Dr. Ganchi, a double board certified and talented plastic surgeon who listens and genuinely cares about his clients. Dr. Ganchi is truly a gifted, professional, honest, genuine, and caring surgeon.
