The membership consists of students studying in the School of Agriculture at TTU who are interested in educating women concerning the opportunities in agriculture. Career seminars are held each spring to help members and interested high school seniors learn about opportunities available to them. Successful alumnae of the School of Agriculture visit campus to share their experiences and give advice on career placement. Community service activities are scheduled each semester as are joint activities with other School of Agriculture clubs.

I don't mind top knots, just don't like people wearing them when something more formal or even just put together is more appropriate. I too am sick of ombre hair, although mainly the really exaggrated type of ombre hair, if that makes sense.
With regards to peplum I have to disagree, while I don't own anything peplum, I'm a fan because I think it is a style that suits every possible body type, and for that I applaud it For me I'm sick of khaki jackets with really cheap looking pleather sleeves, while I have warmed to the style now compared to when I saw them on the runways a few years ago I very much disliked the idea, I just hate the cheap looking ones and they are all over my college campus :/

[JURIST] The UK Parliament's Joint Committee on Human Rights [official website; JURIST news archive] said in a report [text] issued Sunday that so-called control orders [BBC backgrounder] issued by the government to limit the movement and conduct of uncharged terror suspects violate the European Convention on Human Rights [text] and should give way to actual criminal prosecutions. In its summary of findings, the report's group of cross-party authors from both the House of Commons and House of Lords said:
The Committee has acknowledged the genuine dilemma of governments facing a threat from international terrorism: what to do about individuals in their country who pose a serious threat but cannot be deported or prosecuted. It has taken the view that the only human rights compatible answer is to find ways of prosecuting such individuals...In the Committee's view, the Government could do much more to overcome the main obstacles to criminal prosecution, notably by allowing use of intercept material. The Committee also notes [UK independent anti-terror law reviewer] Lord Carlile's emphasis on the need for an exit strategy from control orders and considers that the most effective strategy would be a variety of measures to facilitate criminal prosecution. The Committee is reinforced in this view by the disappearance of three people subject to control orders, which shows their limitations as a means to protect the public. And the Government's claim that these people do not pose a threat to the public because they were not planning to commit terrorist acts in the UK raises questions about whether control orders are being used for the purposes for which Parliament was told they were necessary, namely to protect the public from the risk of harm by suspected terrorists.
[JURIST] British EU Minister Geoff Hoon [official website] said Sunday that the term "constitution" may be to blame for the slow progress of an official set of EU operating rules. Speaking to ITV, Hoon said "It seems to me much better, instead of talking about details of alleged constitutions, that we actually concentrate on what the European Union does for its citizens and make sure that that is the debate we have." The minister cited the term's overuse as a large reason for the rejection [JURIST report] of an European Constitution [JURIST news archive] by France and the Netherlands in 2005. Britain favors the adoption of a more simple term and a simpler document, such as the treaty proposed [JURIST report] by French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy [official profile, in French]. Other European leaders have similarly blamed terminology some for the troubles encountered by the proposed European charter; in October European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso suggested in a speech delivered in the UK that a different name be used to enact the proposed institutional reforms, echoing a similar notion advanced last May by EU foreign ministers [JURIST report]. The originally proposed constitution provides for a simpler voting system, a longer term for EU president country, and the appointment of a foreign minister to deal with the newly enlarged union. EU leaders are meeting in Brussels later this week but the revision of the constitution is not slated for discussion. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Italian Foreign Minister Massimo D'Alemo [official website, in Italian] criticized the US Saturday for failing to claim responsibility for the March 2005 shooting of Italian intelligence agent Nicola Calipari [BBC profile; JURIST news archive]. The minister's comments called for the US government's intervention in bringing the US soldier accused of the shooting to trial. Last week, an Italian judge ordered [JURIST report] New York Army National Guard [official website] soldier Mario Lozano [Wikipedia profile] to stand trial on charges of voluntary homicide in connection with the death of Calipari. Calipari was shot to death [JURIST report] while driving to the Baghdad airport after securing the release of Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena [Wikipedia profile] from Iraqi kidnappers. A second Italian agent, Andrea Carpani, was also wounded when US soldiers mistook the car as insurgents speeding through a security checkpoint. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Netherlands Minister of Integration Ella Vogelaar [official profile] told Dutch radio Saturday that she has no plans to implement a ban on the public wearing of the full-length Muslim burqa [Wikipedia backgrounder; JURIST news archive] despite two parliamentary votes supporting the prohibition. She told Netherlands Radio 1 that a ban would be counterproductive and disrespectful of Islam, and that in any case the issue was minor, as only some 150 Muslim women in the country wear burqas. The idea of a burqa ban was initially floated [JURIST report] in late 2005 by Vogelaar's predecessor Rita Verdonk [personal website] and was eventually adopted as a cabinet initiative, but it faltered late last year after protests [JURIST reports] and a November Dutch election that installed a more liberal coalition that was officially sworn-in [press release] late last month. At least one Dutch lawmaker has said, however, that he will continue to push for a legislative ban. Dutch News.nl has more.
[JURIST] Iraqi special forces and coalition troops Sunday uncovered an Iraqi intelligence facility in Basra in southern Iraq apparently used to torture prisoners and produce bomb-making equipment. The government building, local headquarters of the Iraqi interior ministry's domestic intelligence agency, also housed 37 inmates. The troops arrested five suspects on suspicion of "serious terrorist activity, including involvement with roadside bombs and attacks against both civilians and multinational forces," according to the British military. Both Iraqi intelligence and police forces have been accused of torture before, with a number of reports [JURIST reports] coming directly from Western military sources. Corruption has been especially rampant in Southern Iraq where many of the local forces have been infiltrated by radical Shiite [Wikipedia backgrounder] factions. AFP has more.
[JURIST] US District Judge Stanley S. Brotman ruled late last week that the US Virgin Islands has inadequate health care available for the territory's mentally ill prisoners awaiting trial. Brotman threatened to find the government in contempt [ACLU press release] if the conditions do not improve within two months. This is the fourth time in 12 years the court has legally warned the Virgin Islands government but it is the first time the judge has ordered daily fines if the government does not meet its deadline. The squalid condition of the territory's prison mental health system was first brought to the court's attention in 1993 when the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] filed a class action lawsuit based on the systematic abuse of mentally ill inmates. The reported abuses range from overcrowded facilities to a complete lack of proper mental health policy. AP has more.
[JURIST] Russian President Vladimir Putin [official profile] Sunday signed into law [press release, in Russian] legislation that removes "reservations to some international treaties" made by the Soviet Union refusing to recognize the jurisdiction of the UN's International Court of Justice [official website]. When signing several international treaties concerning anti-terrorism in the 1980s, the Soviet Union included reservations refusing to recognize the jurisdiction of the ICJ to resolve disputes between treaty signatories over interpretation and application of the treaties.The new law [summary, in Russian], passed by both houses of the Russian parliament last month, removes these reservations. Itar-Tass has more.
[JURIST] Members of the Cherokee Nation [official website] voted Saturday to adopt an amendment [Cherokee backgrounder] to the tribe's constitution [PDF text], limiting membership in the Cherokee Nation and stripping approximately 2,800 descendants of former Cherokee slaves of tribal membership. Over 76 percent of voters backed the amendment [vote results], which limits citizenship "to those who are original enrollees or descendants of Cherokees by blood, Delawares by blood, or Shawnees by blood as listed on the Final Rolls of the Cherokee Nation commonly referred to as the Dawes Commission Rolls closed in 1906."The Cherokee Nation Supreme Court [official backgrounder] ruled last year that descendants of slaves once owned by tribe members were entitled to tribal citizenship under an 1866 treaty [text] ending slavery in the Cherokee Nation. Attempts to block the vote were unsuccessful, but a federal judge has indicated that a challenge could be considered should the tribe vote to revoke membership. A tribal spokesman has said that any court challenges to the results should be filed in tribal courts and that March 12 is the deadline to challenge the vote. The Descendants of Freedmen of Five Civilized Tribes [advocacy website] has promised to protest the results. AP has more.

---- — ANDOVER — The Zoning Board unanimously supported a 224-apartment affordable housing development on Lowell Street yesterday.
The project, Andover Apartments @ Rolling Green, seeks to build two, four-story buildings on the corner of Routes 133 and 93, behind an existing Windsor Green apartment community. With Zoning Board support vetting the project, it now moves on to securing a variety of other local and state permits before developers break ground.
The board's decision to approve Rolling Green comes with a heavy list of conditions regulating the project. That decision can be appealed within the next 20 days, according to Stephen Anderson, Zoning Board chairman.
The public hearing process for the project started last October. With approval in hand after 13 months of hearings, those behind the project are pleased to move forward.
"It has been a thorough process from the Zoning Board, and we look forward to moving forward," applicant attorney Mark Johnson said.
The project is broken down into 134 one-bedroom units, 70 two-bedroom units and 20 three-bedroom units. It will also have 182 parking spaces in garages underneath the two buildings and 195 outdoor parking spaces. It will be built on 20.1 acres of land.
A total of 56 apartments will be "affordable units" restricted to household incomes that are at least 20 percent lower than the area median income.
Under Massachusetts General Law 40B, which establishes the rules governing affordable housing projects, towns need to have at least 10 percent of their homes classified as affordable. This project, once it receives additional, obligatory town and state permits, will move Andover above the 10 percent threshold, Anderson said.
Getting Zoning Board approval for the project has not been easy. Since it was first proposed, meetings have addressed a variety of concerns, including traffic impacts, water and sewer needs, how the project would affect area schools and more.
Traffic getting to Rolling Green will use the existing entrance for Windsor Green, located across the street from the town's IRS facility on Lowell Street. A new intersection with traffic lights will be built at that entrance to help mitigate traffic impacts.
As part of the approval, nearly 27 acres of open land along Fish Brook will also be given to the town.
When Rolling Green was first presented in 2011, another large affordable housing project on Shattuck Road came before the same board. That project was denied by the board in September, and the decision is being appealed.
The approval of Rolling Green comes a month ahead of yet another affordable housing development coming before the Zoning Board. That project, which seeks to build 20 detached single family homes off of South Main Street, is slated to come before the board in January, according to Anderson.

only reason he got to play was because it was a nationalized game against the Lakers. unfortunately it really had a say in the outcome of the game, as Ibaka's 3 pointer really was the dagger that swung the momentum back to OKC
Matt Barnes calls out NBA for punishment double standard
By Ben Golliver
Clippers forward Matt Barnes accused the NBA league office of having a double standard when it comes to its punishment process on Tuesday.
Barnes posted a series of messages on his Twitter account following the NBA's decision to fine, but not suspend, Thunder forward Serge Ibaka for a low blow to Clippers forward Blake Griffin. Ibaka's foul, originally deemed a flagrant 1 but upgraded by the league office to a flagrant 2, came as the two players were jockeying for position during a Barnes three-point attempt on Sunday night.
Barnes asserted that the punishment would have been harsher had he or Lakers forward Metta World Peace committed a similar foul.
You can INTENTIONALLY grab or hit someone in the balls & not get suspended, but you push someone & get suspended. #ImConfused
Let me or Metta World Peace do that & I guarantee its a 5 game suspension .. I [love how] there are different rules, for different people!
So if I would have back handed Ibaka, I would have been the only one to get suspended right??????????????????????????
Heat forward LeBron James also tweeted about Ibaka's suspension, comparing it to a low-blow kick from Dwyane Wade to Bobcats guard Ramon Sessions that earned Wade a one-game suspension without pay in December.
So explain to me the difference? My teammate gets a 1 game suspension and 150k+ taking away from him for his groin altercation #strangetome
Back in February, Barnes was suspended for one game after he received a flagrant 2 for shoving Timberwolves center Greg Stiemsma in the neck. The NBA also suspended Barnes for one game back in November 2012 after he pleaded no contest to "resisting, delaying or obstructing an officer" following an offseason arrest. At the time, Barnes called that suspension a "JOKE."
Also in February, World Peace was suspended for one game for a rebounding tussle with Pistons guard Brandon Knight. World Peace has also been suspended on numerous other occacsions, including a seven-game suspension in April 2012 for elbowing James Harden, a one-game suspension for clotheslining Timberwolves guard J.J. Barea in May 2011 and a season-long suspension for his role in the "Malice at the Palace."
The NBA did assess a one-game suspension to Kings center DeMarcus Cousins for a low blow similar to Ibaka's that Cousins delivered to Mavericks guard O.J. Mayo in December. Like Barnes and World Peace, Cousins has a lengthier history of disciplinary issues than does Ibaka.

Review By: WoLf | Posted: 10/03/2011
The Final Word
Dragon Age 2 is a fine game and it fixes a lot of the things that I didn�t like about the first instalment. It has a solid narrative and there�s 40-60 hours of fun here at least.
The Rise to Power begins...
I was a big fan of Dragon Age: Origins and I devoured that game over nearly 100+ hours, spent between the core story, side-quests, numerous explorations and every bit of story-based DLC that I could get my hands on. I actually played the console version and I loved every minute of it, it evoked a yester-year of Baldur�s Gate style PC love and I was enthralled with my Warden�s journey.
Flash forwards now to Dragon Age 2, my Warden is elsewhere and I have a new hero to look after � Hawke, a refugee from the Fall of Lothering, one of the few to escape the Blight and find themselves on the shores of the Free Marches in the City of Chains, Kirkwall. Dragon Age 2 has been on my mind for a while now and I�ve finally gotten to play a good chunk of the game on the Xbox 360 on a retail disc. Warning, this review is quite indepth and if you don�t care to read the following, you can skip to the end for a summary.
Dragon Age 2 uses a storytelling trick known as: framed narrative, it�s been used a couple of times, in games like Alpha Protocol for instance and it is used to excellent effect here in Dragon Age 2. Your character�s story is told through the tales of one of your companions, Varric, a rather dapper dwarf who is clean shaven and has a silver tongue. In each segment Varric chronicles the rise to power of the Champion of Kirkwall with a little vignette and interactions with a Seeker from the Chantry.
The framed narrative trick is perfect for this, you get to play the events that Varric is obviously talking about and the choice is yours how you progress through each time-period. It doesn�t feel jarring at all and it has been masterfully used to create a compelling and well-designed narrative that lets you experience a rise to power where your character actually means something to the world.
I won�t say anything else upon the story, because I loathe spoilers.
Save System
Edit: a late addition to the review, this system is quicker and faster than Dragon Age. Upon loading it's quicker too. What's a lot better about DA 2 is the autosave system, which is seamless and happens in the background without spoiling the flow of the game.
Dragon Age 2 has taken the gameplay from Origins and smoothed it out, refined many of the features and given an overhaul to the first game, rather like Bioware did with Mass Effect 2 and to my mind, Dragon Age 2 doesn�t suffer at all for it. Now I know there are probably Dragon Age vets out there that are upset by the changes, but if you don�t give the game a full chance, you�re doing Bioware a disservice and missing out on a truly good game. Change isn�t always bad, and it isn�t always good. There are numerous reasons for evolution of something and if it remains the same, well, it stagnates. That said there�s a few changes that I�d like to bring to light in this review:
1. Character generation. Since Hawke is rather like Commander Sheppard, and fully voiced this time around (Male or Female Hawke), human is the only default choice and there are 3 classes to pick, mage, rogue, warrior. You can fiddle with your Hawke�s features and change quite a few parameters like you could in Mass Effect 2. You can change the first name and pick one of 3 starting backgrounds that shape the world for Dragon Age 2, if you never played Origins. If you did play Origins, you can import a save game character and Dragon Age 2 will adapt the world to the choices that you made in the first game.
One interesting thing to note, your Hawke�s features affect those of your family members...just play around and you should spot that.
2. Combat: Combat has changed quite drastically from the first game; it feels more intuitive and definitely more visceral. It is first and foremost an action-rpg combat system and there�s actually a deep layer of tactical option remaining if you choose to look closer. You can mash the A button to do basic attacks or trigger any of your mapped powers at any time, as long as you have the mana or stamina. That�s all well and good, but even on Casual there are some very tough fights if you don�t know your way around the combat system.
Cross-class combos are a must in that case, where you can set up an effect like Brittle with a Mage, and a Warrior can smash them. Or you can Stagger a foe and have Mages deliver a Chain Lightning. There are a few combinations to experiment with and Cross-class combos do amazing amounts of damage. Then you can pause the game and issue specific orders. I actually recommend using this option in quite a few of the bigger fights, picking out dangerous magic users and boss characters and setting them up for some tactical takedowns.
You get out of this system what you put into it. So if you�re after a Fable style combat experience, just mash the A button. If you want something deeper, pause, think and plan your battle tactics. Why not have Varric fire a Hail of Arrows into a crowded mob of lesser foes and then target a main boss with something from any of the other companions that does highly focussed damage against a single foe?
Experiment, it�s not just a pure action game.
3. Inventory: The inventory has changed since Dragon Age, you�re no longer battling with it and it�s simple to use. You�re not mix-matching every set of armour for every character. Each NPC has their own unique armour set and you can find upgrades for those if you explore around the various city and wilderness locations. NPCs can equip a variety of weapons and you�ll change those quite a lot as new gear pops up from various places, you can also manage their amulets and rings. Hawke�s armour is broken down into chest, hands, feet and head. You can mix the right armour for your character if you so desire as long as you have the stats to use it.
All loot objects are now classified as Junk and appear under that tab in your inventory, allowing you to sell them en-masse at the various shops that are littered around Kirkwall. Crafting resources are listed separately and we�ll talk about Crafting right now.
Comparing items is easier too, you can see at a glance what the benefits and drawbacks are to each piece of equipment against that piece you have equipped.
4. Crafting: Another change to Dragon Age 2, a smoother craft system. You find resources that go into a central stock pile and you can order various runes, potions, bombs so forth from the crafters in the game. You have a character base that also has these craft stations. Each item costs a certain amount in coin but requires a specific set of resources; they�re not consumed once the item is made so you don�t have to keep on replenishing the resource.
Enchantment is another part of crafting and that�s changed, you can put runes into your equipment once again, however, the runes are destroyed if you replace the old rune...so you can�t pull them back out.
5. The ability menu: The power wheel is back and it�s easier to navigate than before, you can very quickly pick the power you want to use and holding down the left trigger (you can change this option to toggle it in the menu) and selecting it from the radial menu. The icons are easier to read and there�s all the information you need right there to choose the right power for the battle at hand.

20 Hot Money Moves for Summer
Here's a checklist for getting your finances in order as the weather outside sizzles.
Summertime usually means a little more downtime—but instead of using it all to splash around in the pool, consider shoring up your finances, too. We asked top financial experts throughout the country for ideas on how Americans can improve their financial lives as the temperatures outside soar. Here are 20 of their best ideas:
1. Start plotting for that raise. Farnoosh Torabi, author of Psych Yourself Rich, says summer is the perfect time to stand out at the office, especially as coworkers start leaving early on Fridays or taking week-long breaks. "Come fall, you'll have built some impressive momentum and can ask for that raise with even more confidence," she says.
2. Clean out your closet and sell the leftovers. "It might be sweltering outside, but fall fashions are already hitting store shelves, so now is a great time to do a little closet cleaning," says Linda Descano, president and chief executive of Women & Co., a website aimed at women and published by Citigroup. Then, she suggests, earn money by selling unwanted items at a secondhand shop or through eBay.
3. Make money through creative methods. Torabi suggests selling used electronics online through sites such as gazelle.com, hosting a large yard sale with a neighbor, or, if you live in a destination popular among tourists, renting out your driveway to visitors through a site such as parkatmyhouse.com.
Overhaul your savings and spending habits.
4. Don't be tempted by higher-yielding accounts. Helaine Olen, author of the forthcoming personal-finance book Pound Foolish, warns, "Any adviser or broker who promises to increase your return should be jettisoned at once." That's because increasing one's yield requires taking on more risk—not something anyone should do with their short-term savings. She suggests keeping your money safe in a money-market fund or FDIC-insured bank account instead.
5. Take advantage of easy-to-use budgeting tools. To maximize your hours at the pool or beach, consider using a online budgeting tool that allows you to quickly see and manage all your accounts, from 401(k)s to mortgages to bank accounts, in one place, suggests Descano. That way, she says, you'll have an easy-to-access snapshot of your net worth.
6. Consider moving. Carmen Wong Ulrich, president of ALTA Wealth Management, a financial planning firm, says homes can turn into people's biggest expense, and biggest headache. "It may be your culprit when it comes to never feeling like you can catch up or get ahead, financially or even professionally," she says. That's why she recommends thinking about whether downsizing makes sense, and calculating how much you could save each month by doing so.
7. Refinance. Interest rates continue to march along at all-time lows, which means homeowners might be able to increase their monthly cash flow by refinancing, says Olen. If rates end up dropping again, you can always refinance again, she adds.
Go on a different kind of vacation.
8. Check amenities in advance. Chris McGinnis, Best Western's business travel expert and blogger at youmustbetrippin.com, suggests always checking to make sure what he calls the "three key amenities" are included in your hotel rate: Wi-fi, breakfast, and parking. He estimates that a family of four can save at least $50 a day that way. A new hotel booking website, room77.com, makes it easy for users to filter search results based on availability of those amenities, he adds.
9. Wait until late August. Since many children are going to back to school earlier, toward the end of August, traveling at that time can often result in incredible deals. "Rates and fares take a big dip as demand begins to wane around August 20. Most fall sales begin around then," says McGinnis.
10. Get creative with "staycation" plans. If you decide to stay home to save money, then Ornella Grosz, author of Moneylicious: A Financial Clue for Generation Y, suggests using sites such as Groupon, Living Social, and Bloomspot.com to snag the best deals in your neighborhood.

I'm certain that, if it had been necessary, she could have run FASTER that last quarter....maybe 57 or 56!!
We don't know if she can kick with the likes of Uceny and Simpson off a low 4:00 pace. She should be eventually but she'd need to be able to run close to 4:00 to kick off that kind of pace. That might be a bit much right now.
She probably is in the top 3 or 4 Americans right now pending on who shows up healthy Outdoors.
She won a race she should have won which is a good thing.
Agree with most of what you stated here, except for the last statment. I'm probably just dense, but I did not think prior to the event that this was a race that she should win. I thought she could, maybe, win, but she was only superior to two of the other six runners: Mecke (mile PB 4:39, 2013) and Koch (1500 PB 4:18, 2012). As for the other four, they have clearly superior resumes:
Moser 4:03 PB and 4:09 from last year. 2006 WIC finalist, other WC too, and multiple USATF championships, iirc.
Felnagle 4:08 PB last year, 7th at OT and iirc also NCAA 1500 m champion
Vaughn 4:08 PB last year & ran at 2012 WIC (but did not advance to final, irrc)
Bowman Brown 4:05 PB & 4:08 last year, 6th at OT, 8th at 2010 WIC, & iirc also NCAA champion indoors.
That's four very good (in the context of USA) 1500/mile runners with success at the national
Cain's been at a higher level this year. I was pretty comfortable she would win particularly since she has demonstrated the best close of all of them.

Cap combines clarity and barrier
Done under water
The vacuum test checks to see if there is an hermetic seal between the clear cap and the opaque lipstick barrel. Spatz achieves this hermetic seal in its container design by giving the cap two molded rings around the inside diameter at the point where the cap meets the barrel. When the cap is snapped onto the barrel a complementary ring molded on the outside of the barrel mates with the rings molded into the cap to form an hermetic seal.
In the vacuum test a closed container is submerged under water in a vacuum chamber. A vacuum measuring 4 Hg is drawn and if a stream of bubbles emerges from the container it indicates a leak.
"We also studied the dimensions of the cap over time and found them very stable" says Flanagan.
While Spatz operates 38 injection molding presses from 28-ton to 200-ton the firm typically molds the Eleganzza cap on an 85-ton eight-cavity machine from Van Dorn Demag (Strongsville OH). It's one of the newest machines in the Spatz Laboratories arsenal.
"The material is a little less forgiving than PP" Flanagan says "so mold temperature and processing temperature have to be carefully controlled." This is more easily done on a newer machine.
Spatz also molds the opaque bottom half of the Eleganzza container. For this piece says Flanagan PP is perfectly adequate.
Naturally the benefits of AN004 don't come without an upcharge. "Polypropylene for a cap like this might be 50 cents a pound" Flanagan says. "This material is roughly three times that. But the combined benefits of clarity and barrier make it worth it."
Available since September 2000 the Eleganzza line is sold throughout Mexico and Central/South America. Consumers pay a U.S. equivalent of about $6.90 for a tube of that lipstick.

Edison man accused of explicit online chats with Bergen County detective posing as girl
Authorities on Monday arrested an Edison man who they said engaged in sexually explicit online conversations with a detective from the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office posing as a 14-year-old girl.
Vankata S. Mantrala, 28, an unemployed electrical engineer, was charged with attempt to endanger the welfare of a minor, attempt to transmit obscenity to a minor and attempted criminal sexual contact, authorities said.
Mantrala, who is married, was arrested without incident at his house in Edison by detectives from the prosecutor's office Computer Crimes Unit.
During the investigation, Mantrala masturbated in front of the webcam in view of the detective, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said in a statement.
Mantrala was being held in the Bergen County Jail in Hackensack on Monday in lieu of $25,000 bail, Molinelli said. He was ordered to surrender his passport and not to access the Internet, Molinelli said. He is scheduled to be arraigned at 9 a.m. Tuesday in Central Municipal Court in Hackensack.

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners, Kansas City, Mo., in April adopted a resolution to waive continuing education requirements for producers on active duty in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
As Joseph Normandy, executive director of the National Association of Independent Life Brokerage Agencies in Fairfax, Va., says, "It makes no sense [for companies] to guarantee someone's job when they get back home, only to [have them find when they get back] that they can't do their job because their CE has lapsed." While it is up to each state to decide whether or not to exempt producers serving in the military, NAILBA brought up the idea at NAIC's spring meeting in March in hopes that NAIC and its many state agency members would take it and run with it.
"It doesn't matter if it's just one person who's affected, or 1,001," says Normandy. "When they're hanging up their camouflage and putting the suit back on, they can take a deep breath of relief knowing that their state took care of their requirements." NAILBA would like to extend the policy to those who are called up for homeland security.
Several of the states that don't already have a similar policy on the books are considering it. The New York State Insurance Department implemented a policy in late March to exempt from CE requirements all insurance department licensees called to active military duty during the term of their licenses. General consensus at press time was that most states would waive CE requirements for producers in the military.

I was looking for a simple extension to display photos from flickr. After nosing around, I chose Art Image Viewer as it seemed to fit my need the best. Upon download, I was pretty frustrated. Nothing was working well. I thought I had wasted $20. As a last ditch effort, I fired off an email to the folks of artetics (the makers of the extension) and within MINUTES they replied! After a few volleys of communication through email, the problem was fixed! They even went into the html coding of my site to sort out the problem! This was very impressive. I can't recommend them highly enough for their excellent service! Kudos to you, Artetics! Thank you!

I recently visited a friend in Malibu, a spectacularly beautiful beach town north of Los Angeles. As I walked along the sand, I was captivated by the warm breeze, the sound of the ocean, and the light glinting off the water. Glancing at the luxurious houses lining the shore, I imagined that this was as good as it gets.
Then the rains came. Hour after hour, day after day, rain pounded down. My friend's garage roof leaked. The stuff she was storing there all had to be moved. When the storm was over, battalions of ants marched through her kitchen. In the midst of the chaos, a national news correspondent called and asked if she could come out with a television crew to film the scene. Puzzled, my friend asked, "Why?" The woman replied, "Well, all around the country people get excited if they hear that something's gone wrong in Malibu." We relish others' misfortunes when we begrudge them their apparent happiness. Hearing about another person's success, we might think, "Oooh. I would be happier if you had just a little bit less going for you right now. You don't have to lose everything, of course; just a slight tarnishing of that glow would be nice." We react as though good fortune were a limited commodity, so the more someone else has, the less there will be for us. As we watch someone else partake of the stockpile of joy, our hearts may sink—we're not going to get our share. But someone else's pleasure doesn't cause our unhappiness—we make ourselves unhappy because our negativity isolates us. An alternative to feeling painfully cut off is to learn to rejoice in the happiness of others. In Buddhist teaching, this is called sympathetic joy. The term is unusual; sympathy is commonly used in the sense of feeling bad for others. Learning to share their joy revolutionizes our thinking about where we can find happiness. Usually we rejoice in what we get, not in what others have. But sympathetic joy is a practice of generosity, and giving isn't just about doing someone a favor—it makes us feel better.

American businessman in Dubai released on bail
By ADAM SCHRECK, Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — American businessman Zack Shahin has been released on bail pending trial after more than four years in a Dubai jail, a U.S. Embassy official in the United Arab Emirates said Friday.
The detention of the Ohio-raised businessmen and a recent hunger strike he launched to urge authorities to hear his case threatened to strain relations between the United States and one of its top Gulf allies.
Shahin was met by an American consular officer upon his release late Thursday night, embassy spokesman Jeffrey Ladenson told The Associated Press. Ladenson welcomed the move, which he said will allow Shahin to engage fully in his own defense.
"We urge that the prosecution be concluded in a timely and transparent fashion," Ladenson said.
Shahin, 52, is a former CEO of Deyaar, one of several Dubai-based property developers that rose to prominence during the emirate's building boom last decade.
He was arrested in 2008 as part of a probe into alleged embezzlement by executives at the company. Authorities later targeted him in other investigations involving alleged financial improprieties involving Deyaar. He has denied wrongdoing.
The Lebanon-born Shahin is one of several businesspeople under investigation for financial irregularities in the UAE that allegedly occurred as the desert country transformed itself into a free-wheeling international business hub.
After more than four years in jail awaiting trial, Shahin began going without food on May 14 to draw attention to his case. He said shortly after beginning the hunger strike that he feared he was being left in legal limbo because authorities had yet to bring his case to trial.
In a written statement confirming his release, Shahin thanked U.S. officials for pressing his case. He also called on Emirati authorities to consolidate several separate sets of charges against him so his lawyers can mount a more effective defense.
"All I have asked for is the same treatment under the law as other Emirati defendants standing accused of similar charges. Now that Dubai authorities have taken the first step for equal due process for all defendants by granting my bail, I look forward to the opportunity to prove my innocence during a fair, transparent, and open trial," Shahin said.
He added that he will seek medical attention to restore his health.
Local media have reported on a wave of hunger strikes in UAE prisons in recent months among inmates jailed on financial crimes, including issuing bad checks.
American officials in the UAE took an unusually public role in advocating for Shahin as his health deteriorated. The pressure risked opening a rare diplomatic rift with one of Washington's closest Arab allies at a time when traditional U.S. relationships elsewhere in the Mideast are being tested by the Arab Spring changes.
The seven-state UAE federation, which includes the emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, is OPEC's third largest oil producer. It maintains strong economic ties with the U.S. and hosts important American air bases and other strategic sites.
Dubai officials have not responded to requests for comment about the case, and court officials could not be reached on Friday.
Shahin began eating again last week after authorities agreed to set bail for his release, according to one of his U.S.-based lawyers. He was required to post 5 million dirhams ($1.4 million) bail and surrender his passport along with that of a guarantor to secure his pre-trial release.
His attorneys say he has various health issues, including high blood pressure and a stomach ulcer.
