The new National Freight Strategic Plan will look at different transportation modes. The Department of Transportation is asking for nominations for a committee that will establish the National Freight Strategic Plan that's called for in last year's highway bill, and has proposed a process for desgnating a national freight network.
U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced the establishment of a National Freight Advisory Committee to provide recommendations aimed at improving the national freight transportation system.
The recent transportation bill, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century, or MAP-21, signed by President Obama in July 2012, established a national freight policy and called for the creation of a National Freight Strategic Plan.
The Advisory Committee will represent diverse geographic, modal, and policy interests, such as safety, labor and the environment, according to the DOT. It will make recommendations to the Secretary of Transportation on how DOT can improve its freight transportation policies and programs.
The committee will be made up of at least 25 voting members from outside of DOT who have various perspectives on freight transportation, including mode, region, policy areas, freight customers and providers, and government entities, and will meet at least three times per year.
The DOT is soliciting nominations for members of the National Freight Advisory Committee. Instructions on how to submit nominations will be available in the Federal Register notice which will publish in the coming days.
As for the National Freight Network, the DOT propose that the Secretary of Transportation will designate the most critical existing interstates and roads as the primary freight network. This network will consist of up to 27,000 miles of existing interstate and other roadways. It will also include the possible addition of 3,000 miles of existing and planned roadways necessary for the efficient movement of goods in the future.
The Department is requesting comments on the proposed process. Instructions on how to submit comments are available in the Federal Register notice available here: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2013-02-06/html/2013-02580.htm.

Ski event raises money for diabetesAnthony Edwards / Staff Photo
Katherine Rockwell speeds through gates at Pico Mountain during the 3rd annual Downhill for Diabetes event on Sunday.KILLINGTON — If only charitable giving could always be this much fun.
About 65 skiers and boarders helped raise $19,200 during the third annual Downhill for Diabetes on Sunday at Pico Mountain. The locally grown event was created by Pawlet resident Lynn Pratt, who sprang into action after her 7-year-old daughter Ashley Pratt was diagnosed with Type I diabetes.
"It was a way of coping with her having the disease. We live in Vermont, so we thought instead of having a walk we should have a ski," said Pratt as she manned a table in the base lodge with her husband Brad Pratt, selling T-shirts, hats, tote bags and fleece ear warmers.
In between races, visitors were also treated to sugar-free treats from American Diabetes Wholesale, sugar-free ice cream from Ben & Jerry's, and bread from Rupert Rising Breads.
After Ashley received her diagnosis in October 2010, Lynn wasted no time in her response, first founding the nonprofit Donations for Diabetes and organizing the first downhill event in February 2011. The now-annual tradition was a success from straight out of the starting gate, raising $8,500 its first year and $14,500 its second year.
All proceeds benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, which since 1970 has awarded more than $1.7 billion for research. According to the American Diabetes Foundation, about one in 400 children and adolescents has diabetes. About 15,000 children are diagnosed with diabetes annually, according to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
One of the newly diagnosed is Lauren Sampson, 10, of Rutland, who learned she has Type I diabetes in September. Despite not being skiers or boarders, Lauren and her family — parents Steve and Susan Sampson and sister Elizabeth Sampson — came out to offer their support and meet other families in their situation.
"We were given Lynn's name from our doctor and we wanted to support the cause," said Susan Sampson, whose brother also has Type I diabetes. "She (Lauren) is on an insulin pump and still does all the things she always has."
"I still play basketball," Lauren said.
Lynn Pratt enthusiastically thanked Pico Mountain, who donated discounted and free lift tickets to participants who had solicited donations. She also thanked her event's major donors: General Electric, RLA Insurance Intermediaries, Allen Pools & Spas, Rutland Regional Medical Center, American Diabetes Wholesale, and Vermont Renewable Fuels.
Participants took home around $1,200 in raffle prizes, but the grand prize — a two-night stay at the Mountain Top Inn & Resort in Chittenden — is still up for grabs and will be until March 30. Tickets are on sale at www.donationsfordiabetes.org.
As she ate a piece of bread, Ashley Pratt made plans for the afternoon, the same kind of plans as any other 7-year-olds at Pico.
"I haven't been out there today but I'm going to go out later and I'm going to be in the race," she said smiling.

According to Dr. Al-Marshood [Head of the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice in the Eastern province], the two commission members approached the girls in order to "politely" advise and guide them regarding their inappropriate clothing.The paper reports that the girls were escorted to a police station, where they apologized and were released. Link (Thanks, Coop!)Consequently, the two girls started verbally abusing the commission members, which then lead to one of the girls pepper-spraying them in the face as the other girl filmed the incident on her mobile phone, while continuing to hurl insults at them.

i'm fairly sure that those two commission members got told, so it follows that they're deserving of an "oh, snap!"
yup. that felt about right. my work here is done.
OM says:
…You know, if more women in these Muslim fanatic countries would rise up and fight back against their oppression in this manner, the sooner the rest of the populace would accept the fact that their clerics are complete nutjobs, deservedly put them to the sword, and clear the way for them to join the civilized world.
Joe says:
From what I've heard about the behavior of the Saudi religious police, I doubt the claim that the young women were "politely advised" about their violation of the rules; those guys play rough, and the pepper spray was probably self-defense.
Michael Zed says:
In a "civilized†country those girls would be tossed in the slammer for assaulting an officer with a weapon. Nice to see that an apology still counts for something somewhere.
And to some of the commenters here: isn't politeness and showing basic respect a sign of being civilized?

I do not know why the U.S. still deals with these countries because of civil rights.

I think anyone the least bit concerned about civil rights in general worldwide should just condemn all the 'sharia' countries to hell. As in, we won't do business with you, period.
Alas, a lot of them are oil-bearing states. Bunch of assholes, who aren't really adhering to the Koran.
Or conversely, every Islamic male is so powerless, frantic and debased when seeing any part of a female (iincluding their face or hair) that they should probably be locked up in an institution because of their powerlessness and depravity.. Just saying.

You sound like someone who does not live here and comment on something you do not know. These 'people' – and I use that term broadly for most! – are NOT cops. They are not police officers sworn to protect and serve. These are rude, self important jerks walking the streets insulting and publicly humiliating women who might have a head scarf out of place or abaya flying open with the wind, or sitting or standing in the wrong place or in one place too long, or any number of the many many similarily horrifying offenses that single women out alone might be accused of. Anyone who has run up with a (matawa) commissioner of vice and virtue KNOWs they didnt ask 'politely' They probably had a bull horn yelling out insults and usually are not alone which is very intimidating! More likely than not, he deserved what he got. It is nice to see women starting to defend themselves against these harrassing men….besides the fact it is overlooked that these men are BREAKING THE LAW by approaching and speaking to single unprotected women on the street…but everyone seems to overlook that fact.

phasor3000 says:
Yes, the press in Saudi Arabia is so much more truthful and reliable than the evil Zionist-controlled American media. And women have more rights, and there's a lot more religious freedom and tolerance of gays and lesbians… all the things you would expect from a fundamentalist Islamic society operating under sharia law.
dculberson says:
Re: being released… there are actually ways in which other societies are more free than America, believe it or not.
Not saying it's OK how they oppress women! Just sayin'…
phasor3000 says:
If the cops did let them go unharmed, it was probably to release them to their father or husband, who very likely beat them for dishonoring their families so publicly. If they're "lucky" they won't end up as victims of a so-called honor killing.
Gag Halfrunt says:
In Azar Nafisi's Reading Lolita in Tehran, there's an anecdote about a security guard at Tehran University who reports a woman for eating an apple 'lasciviously'. The implication is that the guard is projecting onto the woman his own sexual excitement at watching her eat.
Teresa Nielsen Hayden/Moderator says:
I don't think any of those bad things necessarily happened to the girls, if the CPVPV has been making itself obnoxious. The prude getting a comeuppance after demanding that law enforcement Do Something about a harmless situation is a staple of 19th Century American humor.

WikiLeaks endures a lengthy DDoS attack
Under a barrage of more than 10GB per second in a DDoS attack, the document-leaking organization's Web site has been either inoperable or sluggish since the beginning of the month.
It's unclear who or what is after WikiLeaks, but the document-leaking organization claims someone is.
According to its Twitter feed, the organization has sustained a several-day Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack that has left its Web site effectually inoperable.
"The attack is well over 10Gbits/second sustained on the main WikiLeaks domains," read one of several tweets the organization posted on Friday. "The bandwidth used is so huge it is impossible to filter without specialized hardware, however... the DDoS is not simple bulk UDP or ICMP packet flooding, so most hardware filters won't work either. The range of IPs used is huge. Whoever is running it controls thousands of machines or is able to simulate them."
Apparently WikiLeaks' Web site has been slow moving or inaccessible since the beginning of August, according to the Associated Press.
WikiLeaks sent out a statement on Saturday saying that a recently registered Twitter account called Anti Leaks claimed responsibility for the attacks. It hasn't been verified if the DDoS was pulled off by Anti Leaks and even if it was, it's unclear who is behind Anti Leaks.
Related stories
As of today, the Web site is still sluggish but WikiLeaks appears to remain emboldened. "Is that all you've got?" it tweeted today. "Keep attacking, our skin just gets harder. DDoS proof, financially & geographically diverse. We're ready to rumble."

Apple disables RealNetworks music on iPod photo
Apple's iPod photo contains updated firmware that blocks songs downloaded from the RealNetworks music store from being played on the device, according to CNET News.com. "The move could render tunes purchased by many iPod owners unplayable on their music players. For the last four months, RealNetworks has marketed its music store as the only Apple rival compatible with the iPod, following the company's discovery of a way to let its customers play their downloaded tunes on Apple's MP3 player. Apple criticized RealNetworks' workaround, dubbed Harmony, as the 'tactics…of a hacker,' and warned in July that RealNetworks-purchased songs would likely 'cease to work with current and future iPods.'"

So what? Real is just trying to jump on the success of Apple. Apple has no reason to "allow" Real-DRM'ed files to play on an iPod.
Real has been irrelavant for five or six years ago. They had an entire markey to themselves and destroyed it with an inferior product. Maybe they should try creating a good product instead of whining about everything.

Wow, once again a major corperation uses their monopoly in one part of the company to increase sales in another!
To be perfectly honest, why is it that whenever MS does this for the OS market, everyone and their grandmother is up in arms, but when apple does it with their ipod its "apple has no reason to…".
Well, MS has no reason to "allow" Netscape/Opera/Firefox/Mozilla/etc to run on their OS.
SAME argument.

Apple has no reason to "allow" Real-DRM'ed files to play on an iPod.
How would you feel in a few years time if a new Apple patch disabled the ability of iPods to play back plain mp3s?
I happen to think that if I have paid for and bought a device then I should be able to modify it to persuade it to play whatever the hell I want, whenever I want. Real offers more options and choice for iPod users, but threatens Apple's mnonopoly.
I happen to think that a program that can let me move WMA, RA, MP3, and AAC files to the iPod is a great idea. That presents a way to unify my collection and manage it easily in one convenient interface. Media Center does this, but only by transcoding the files and so losing some quality during the conversion. The Real solution manages to avoid some of the quality loss.
How is that convenience not a good thing for iPod owners? What's good for Steve Jobs' bank balance is not necessarily what's good for you. I think you're making a mistake by conflating the two.
no one sees Apple as evil
Apple would love to be a huge, evil, monopolizing megacorporation because that's in its DNA - it's how it's always behaved. Hardware and software lock-in, assimilation of popular 3rd-party utilities, and insanely tight tight control over press leaks. The only difference between MS and Apple is that MS became wildly successful doing just this while Apple just kind of muddled along, until now it's such a tiny player that hardly anybody notices its diktats.

Isn't it funny how when a company finally puts out something so elegant and user-friendly that everybody wants one, but it has it's limitations, purposeful or not, then all of a sudden that company is an "evil corporation"? Instead of b——ing about how the iPod won't play .wma or .rm files, why don't people get together, and build their own device that plays whatever it's able to. If Apple won't let it play .aac, then make something better than .aac and push Apple out of the market. stop b——ing about it, being lazy and use innovation to push out those "evil corporations". Forcing these corporations to conform in every way will only kill innovation in the long run.
Posted by Lindan in Las Vegas on December 14, 2004 at 3:29 PM (PST)
Most posters want this to be about the corporations struggling against each other. It's NOT. Whenever there are battles over format, it's the end-users who get the shaft. Why shouldn't people be able to buy content on Real and play it on their iPods? In all your back and forth over which company is cool and which is has-been, you miss the consumers, and we get shafted in all this. Format wars screw over the regular user. Why should we have to be experts in file compression formats to listen to digital music? Why shouldn't whatever we download work in whatever player we use? The alternative is just a mess.

The iPod Photo has been out for over a month, and only now have people noticed Real Harmony tracks don't work.

Alternatively, it shows how many people have bought the photo iPod.

All you Apple haters just don't get it, having 1 media format is the way to go (it's about the music dude!), it reduce ALL cost related to supporting numerous incompatible comparable formats (whether it's soft or hardware), look at the cost of DVD players now as a typical example, imagine they had 2 or more (yes I know about the HD-DVD and Blu-Ray format war but 1 will HAVE to win in the end), the cost would be higher and cost manufacturers more to build - and all that would stall innovation on things that matters and make the consumer pay MORE.
All apple is trying to do is to ensure that they win this format war (since they kicked off the revolution) - instead of having WMA/Real and others (who need them all? and why don't we just aggree on one), and it would make all our lives easier.
It's not about Apple screwing the consumers but trying to keep the iPod as the most POPULAR player that plays the most POPULAR format/s (MP3 and ACC), and ultimately the format for digital music, when too many players are involved are only going to slow down this process via unnecessary support issues. Why do Apple makes computers that just work? not because they want money - if they did, they'd follow MS footsteps and licenced from day one. But because they care about the EXPERIENCE for the CONSUMERS. So the guy above who said Apple is evil or whatever is just plain ignorant and a troll.
This has nothing to do with free market, when Apple take over the format because of their superior hardware and software, I assure you they will licence it and live off the fees and moving on to the "next best thing".
You get what you paid for, and isn't that why you bought an iPod in the first place and not some other player? Support the one that really innovates is high in my books, and not some copy-cats, eg. MS and Real. Think about it… think!

having 1 media format is the way to go
We already have one universal music format: mp3. We've had it for nearly 15 years now.
But the mp3 creators, a German company called Fraunhofer Gesellschaft, became increasingly snarky about licensing and fees. In response, a better bet is now Ogg Vorbis: it's open-source so no single company controls it to the detriment of others it. It can be wrapped with DRM if a company so chooses. It also scores higher on blind listening tests than either AAC or mp3.
Apple has refused to create an open licensing scheme for FairPlay (its DRM wrapper for AAC). Therefore companies are not free to release their music in this format escept by sucking up to Apple and earning brownie points. This thus mitigates against independent music, alternative distribution channels, and a level playing field for majors and minors alike. By playing favourites and dealing mostly with the biggest record companies, Apple is acting as a typical evil monopolist.
And by behaving so evilly, Apple is forcing other companies and people to resort to weird runarounds. Real is clean-room reverse-engineering FairPlay. Hymn is hosting its FairPlay unwrappers on servers in India.
trying to keep the iPod as the most POPULAR player that plays the most POPULAR format/s (MP3 and ACC)
This is a red herring. Allowing the iPod to play back Real AACs does not hurt the iPod "experience" in any way. If you don't have any Real AACs then you won't even notice any difference. before the iPod could playback iTMS tunes it could play mp3s. After iTMS launched it could still (for the time being) play mp3s. But deliberately crippling the iPod to lock out other formats is all about denying iPod owners the choice of how to use and when to listen to their music that they have legally purchased
I am amazed that you can defend such an obviously evil action. It's like something Sony would do on their crappy people-hating players.
Posted by Demosthenes on December 14, 2004 at 7:17 PM (PST)
haha, Demo, I can see your points, but man as much as you hate companies and pro-open-source, you need to see we don't live in a free world, open-source ONLY works in software, and nothing else because it requires no real labour but intellectual of a few who has too much time on their hands (who's gonna guarantee continue relatively painless instant support? No one.) – or we'd be seeing FREE iPods if that's the way the world should go towards and only then can I not argue with you that companies don't have their own agenda.
And all your independent/non-main stream artist you talk about are not working for free either, well, not before they get signed by anyone that cared. They work so hard and trying to get recognition, it's the hope of getting popular one day – or people would not pursuit any art form (what's the point if it's only for me to enjoy? It would be called a hobby). It's the biggest hypocrite/ironic statement of the whole music industry, you know, the young band wanting to stay "underground�? as if it's some elite thing to do, and if by chance (and talent) they get discovered they'd get sucked into the whole exploitation issue so many of you disagrees with. But face it, we're all sell-outs, if you're not, don't work! Then how are you supposed to live? DRM is the music industries way of making sure they can survive and get the money back from investing in exposing these acts (whether it's good or bad music – no one if forcing you to listen to it).
When you talk all technical makes me disagree with you even more, did you actually absorb what I said before about fighting for market share to become the de facto format, not about the fight itself.
Sadly we live in a capitalist world, I agree that companies are greedy, but if they are not, they'd get eaten. If you don't like it, move to any third world country where you'd appreciate life without all these luxuries that make you angry and finger pointing, I'm sure you'd be happy then.

Apple criticized RealNetworks' workaround, dubbed Harmony, as the 'tactics…of a hacker,'
One question I have is how did Apple disable Real's Harmony tracks?
Did they reverse-engineer the Real tracks to achieve this, thereby doing exactly to Real what they criticized them as using hacker tactics.
I could be wrong, maybe someone with a programming background could offer their view.
Is Apple now the hacker, plus hypocrites?
Posted by snappy on December 14, 2004 at 8:17 PM (PST)
No. Apple's DRM AAC files are proprietary. Apple owns the software to put DRM on an AAC file and the software to play those files. They haven't given anyone else permission to use that software for commercial purposes. The fact that Apple disabled the Harmony files means Apple has tweaked their software to work only with the Apple-created files and not the reverse-engineered ones. Yes, Apple probably had to reverse-engineer the Harmony files but that's a moot point because they own the original technology.
Is it right that Apple won't open it up to other companies? No. Is it legal? Yes.
Posted by shaun3000 on December 14, 2004 at 8:47 PM (PST)
You have no idea what you're talking about. Do you really think the format war is because of tech support issues?
The only tech support call I could see Apple getting is when a user wants to record in MP3, but Apple has iTunes set to AAC by default.
Posted by Talking Madness in Los Angeles on December 14, 2004 at 9:23 PM (PST)
Apple Lovers-
It's obvious that Apple is making shrewd business decisions, but the part I don't get is why you guys are so gung-ho about being suckered/limited by Apple.
Of course, it's your choice to buy AAC files, but it shouldn't be mandated.
What if Adobe decided to make it so that PDF files no longer opened on Macs.
The logical end of the debate is that if Apple is willing to limit the use of legitimately purchased songs on the iPod, how far do you think they are from limiting the iPods ability to play plain old MP3's (many of which are not legally purchased)?
Posted by Talking Madness in Los Angeles on December 14, 2004 at 9:31 PM (PST)
Real's Harmony technology convinced me to buy an iPod, since I already had 200 purchased tracks from the RealPlayer Music Store. I have a friend who wants to buy two 40GB iPods. Perhaps I will tell him to buy something else.

Why is this sad? Creative people like to be compensated for their work. There is nothing wrong with that. You take away the incentive to excel and you end up with mediocrity.

<i.I can't see any point to Demo's postings.</i>
No point? It amazes me that so many people are willing slaves to a single format. Seriously, have you considered Sony's players? They don't even let you play regular mp3s. You might be much happier then.
What Apple is doing is *exactly* what MS did in the 1990s with Windows - continually changing the OS to block its competitors' access, extacting baksheesh from favoured companies to work on Windows, and generally creating a tied antitrust system.
MS was finally found guilty of criminal conspiracy to distort the market. What makes you think Apple won't be if it continues? Those laws are there to protect us, the consumer, and to deliver us choice instead of locking us into a single manufacturwer's whims for ever and ever.
It amazes me that there are so many willing fools. I ask you again - what difference does it make to you personally if your iPod can play non-Apple DRM'd AACs? If you don't buy any of them, then who is being hurt? How is your experience different? If you do buy them, and then suddenly you can't play them anymore, then think now about who is being hurt?

I agree, Fairley and Dalton sounds like a good combo.....I've liked Dalton even before the combine and all the other reports and projections. The kid is a winner with a more than adequate arm to make all the throws. I don't think they take him at 8, so do you guys see a scenario where they take Fairley at 8 then trade up with 39 to get Dalton?

Addressing joint bench-bar concerns
House 1 – the governor's budget proposal – has been released and the budget process has officially begun. Governor Patrick's Fiscal Year 2014 budget proposal was filed yesterday, January 23rd with the House of Representatives. Governor Patrick has said that his budget focuses on investment in education, innovation and infrastructure. Along with these investments, the governor proposes a reduction of the state sales tax rate and various tax increases.
The budget plays an integral role in how the entire justice system works –the amount of funding the justice system receives directly affects our state courts, our civil legal aid providers, the Committee for Public Counsel Services, and the District Attorneys' Offices. As we've always said, adequate funding of the entire justice system in Massachusetts is essential to ensure equal and timely access to justice.
Here is a quick review of what Governor Patrick proposed for the state judiciary and civil legal services. . .
Massachusetts Legal Assistance Corporation (MLAC)
We are so pleased that Governor Patrick appreciates the importance of civil legal aid for poor people and recommended $15.5 million for the Massachusetts Legal Assistance Corporation for Fiscal Year 2014. While this is a 28% increase over its FY13 appropriation of $12 million, this victory for civil legal services is so important because revenue from Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts (IOLTA) continues to be so low. IOLTA, which had historically been the largest source of funding for civil legal aid, has dropped by 78% since 2008. Last year IOLTA revenue was $7.4 million and the total for this year is expected to be even lower.
The Massachusetts Trial Court
The Trial Court's maintenance request for Fiscal Year 2014 is $589 million. A maintenance budget is the cost of maintaining current services in the next fiscal year. This takes into consideration adjustments for costs associated with inflation, caseload changes, and certain other factors. Governor Patrick's budget includes $577.5 million for the Trial Court for Fiscal Year 2014. While this number is about $12 million less than requested, it represents a $16.5 million increase over the $561 million the Trial Court ultimately received in Fiscal Year 2013.
What these numbers really mean for the Trial Court is still to be determined. We will proceed with caution as we work to convince the Legislature that the Trial Court needs more funding in order to deliver justice to all the people that access our courts.
Governor Patrick's budget proposal also creates a commission to study court re-alignment. The commission will include a representative of the BBA. This commission's purpose will be to produce an independent, non-partisan assessment on the closure or re-alignment of courts.
The House Ways and Means Committee will now review Governor Patrick's budget and then develop its own recommendations by April. Stay tuned for updates as the process unfolds.

Release Date: April 23, 2004
Rating: R (for language and strong violence)
Genre: Action/Drama/Thriller
Run Time: 2 hrs. 30 min.
Director: Tony Scott
Actors: Denzel Washington, Dakota Fanning, Marc Anthony, Radha Mitchell, Christopher Walken, Giancarlo Giannini, Rachel Ticotin, Jesus Ochoa, Mickey Rourke
Every 60 minutes someone is kidnapped in Latin America, and 70 percent of the victims do not survive. These are the opening lines to the film, "Man on Fire." Along with grisly images of kidnapping, torture and execution, they certainly set the tone for Denzel Washington's gripping new film. Despite the horrific violence, however, the movie also offers a story about sacrificial, Christ-like love.
Walter Creasy (Washington) is a retired special operations assassin who handled covert counter terrorism for the government. An alcoholic with no family and no hope, Creasy is living in Mexico City with little to do but drink. Because of the extraordinarily high incidence of kidnappings there, wealthy families are forced to hire bodyguards – not only to protect their children, but to satisfy the requirements for kidnapping insurance.

Samuel (Marc Anthony) is struggling to survive financially, but needs a bodyguard to renew his policy. When Creasy's old friend Rayburn (Christopher Walken) proposes Creasy's services to Samuel for cheap, Creasy is skeptical, but accepts the job. He tells Samuel that his senses are dulled because of his drinking, however, and that should a kidnapping happen, he will do what he can – nothing more.

Read position problems
I can't count the amount of times I've clicked on a thread I never opened before, and it takes me near the end instead of the first post. Or I'll come back to a thread I've previously read, click "view first unread" (or the little arrow next to the thread title) and it takes me further than my last read point.
I've searched the settings but no dice as far as finding something to resolve this issue. It's in stark contrast to another vBulletin forum I'm on that is flawless at maintaining position, no matter whether I'm on the website or Tapatalk. I'm wondering what might be causing this and if there's some easy fix? Has anyone else had this issue? |

Do you open the threads via Forum Spy or the sub-forum pages and if so, where exactly do you click, since I don't experience that when clicking a thread in a sub-forum.

A wonderful old wood duck decoy from a local estate. No name that I can see on it. Glass eyes and has the bar on the bottom that they used for attaching the weights. Rough carving so as it resembles the texture of the ducks feathers. Good average condition for a primitive. Paint wear but not broken, and looks great to me.

All Items : Lamps and Lighting : Pre 1960

Here is a great vintage table lamp. This lamp is in impressive condition and is probably mid-century. This has its original cord-an older style, but still in great usable condition. I am not sure of the maker, but I would guess that it is an American maker. It is made of a wonderful heavy ceramic and has a beautiful brown and green drip glaze. It has the appearance of companies like Haeger or Hull from the 1960s...

ED Waits Linked to Higher Costs, LOS
3.Control 'Artificial Variation'
A third suggestion that Sun called "the most effective, but also the most difficult," involves controlling "artificial variation."
"The numbers of patients who are admitted from the ED is like clockwork. It's very predictable. That is natural variation," Sun says.
"Artificial variation is when you have different needs for hospital beds that are based on things that physicians in the hospital can control. For example, let's say the surgeons in your hospital decide to do all their surgeries on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. On those days you are going to have a tremendous backup because all the inpatient beds are going to be taken up by post-surgical patients. Then for the rest of the week you then have oversupply of beds because those post-surgical patients are discharged and you have an excess of inpatient beds. Spread out the surgical schedule over an entire week."
Although the affects of healthcare reform on ED crowding were not addressed in the study, Sun was asked to speculate.
"That's a complicated question. Nobody really knows," he says. "It could make boarding worse because now that more people are going to be insured they will use the hospital more so that might contribute to ED crowding. We've seen this happen in Massachusetts where the expansion of insurance to pretty much the entire population at the least has not helped ER crowding and it probably has increased the volume of people who go to the ED."
"On the other hand, it might help in the sense that there are payment reforms going on and there is a big push to try to figure out how to keep patients out of the hospital. Right now it is really unknown. It could affect in both directions and nobody knows until we actually go to it."

With his sixth album, All That Echoes, Josh Groban has at once built on the touchstone artistry that has made him a global pop star for more than a decade and expanded his ambitious reach into richly rewarding new territory.The inspiring first single "Brave" shows off his accomplished, personal songwriting as one of seven songs on the album he co-wrote. And inspired choices of other's songs, from the Academy Award-winning "Falling Slowly" from the movie and Tony Award-honored spin-off Broadway musical Once to Stevie Wonder's "I Believe" through his continued explorations of the poetry of Spanish ("Un Alma Mas," featuring Cuban-born trumpet great Arturo Sandoval) and Italian ("E Ti Prometterò," a duet with Italian star Laura Pausini), spotlight his singular talents as a masterful interpreter. Working for the first time with producer Rob Cavallo (the Warner Bros. Records chairman whose production credits cover Green Day's many groundbreaking albums, Goo Goo Dolls, Fleetwood Mac and many others), Groban pushed himself to fully capture the spirit of his acclaimed concerts, fueled by his vibrant bond with legions of his fans, the famed Grobanites."The album was really sparked by an energy I had on the road," he says.Any of the hundreds of thousands who saw his shows in support of 2010's Illuminations, in which his writing and ambition took full flower, knows what he's talking about. Those concerts were at turns playful and intimate — even in arena settings — and affectingly powerful, with equal measures of musical virtuosity and spirited, spontaneous personality. The latter has also brought him a rising career in movies and television, with an hilarious recurring guest role on The Office, a sparkling part in the hit Steve Carrell/Julianne Moore film Crazy, Stupid, Love and a as costar of the upcoming small-ensemble comedy Coffee Town."I thought, 'This is the energy, the dynamic I want for my next record, the feeling I'm getting on stage," he says.

Walking down the street, a man hears a voice: "Stop! If you take one more step, a brick will fall down and kill you."
The man stopped; a big brick fell in front of him. The astonished man continued walking to the cross walk.
The voice shouted, "Stop! If you take one more step, a car will run over you and you will die."
The man stood still; a car came careening around the corner, barely missing him.
"Where are you?" the man asked. "Who are you?"
"I am your guardian angel," the voice answered.
"Oh yeah?" the man asked. "Where the hell were you when I got married last week?"
