Herman Cain 8P - 9P |
Brought to you by Signature In Home Care
Monday, June 4, 2012
The wait-and-see period has only just begun for senior citizen centers across the state.
After millions of dollars were initially cut from the state's 2013 fiscal year budget in the last week of legislative session, senior centers statewide were looking at a tough road ahead with nearly $1 million slashed from their senior services nutrition budget.
According to Bill Morrison, the state's Commissioner of Senior Services, after the budget was cut during the regular session, a special session was called where a large portion of the cut was restored.
"We won't be out of the woods yet until September," Morrison said. "On paper it's restored, but it all hinges on the people that get out there and vote.
"If not I will have to send out some letters that aren't going to be good. Some centers will be closed."
Randall H. Frost is the director of the Area Agency on Aging with the East Alabama Regional Planning & Development Commission that provides services to senior citizen centers in Calhoun, Chambers, Cherokee, Clay, Cleburne, Coosa, Etowah, Randolph, Talladega, and Tallapoosa counties.
Frost believes that a $1 million cut to the senior services nutrition budget would not only be devastating for local centers, but would deeply impact their ability to provide nutritious meals to seniors who are homebound.
"The original budget that was passed for senior services was about $1 million short for the nutrition program," Frost said. "You're probably talking around at least half a million meals conservatively."
The current general fund budget that includes the $4 million restoration could start Oct. 1 and end Sept. 30, 2013 as a result of a constitutional amendment, depending on the results of the special election that will be held Sept. 18.
"We have no way of knowing based on the other issues involved in that constitutional amendment whether it will be passed or not; it involves funding for the Department of Corrections and children services," Frost said.
"It's a pretty complex bill. Now we wait until the election and if it does not pass we are still $1 million short."
If the amendment does not pass, Gov. Robert Bentley will have to call another special session to find a way to generate additional funding.
"If not, we have to budget for the reduced number of meals," Frost said.
Some local governments have been good about providing support for their senior centers through local funding, often supplementing the senior services budget shortfalls of the last few years.
"I wasn't panicking yet," said Childersburg Senior Center Director Vickie Moody. "Right now it's just a wait-and-see."
Moody and her staff serve 65 meals everyday. Thirty-seven of those meals are served to seniors at the center and 28 are delivered to homebound seniors.
"We're very blessed that the city of Childersburg has been very good to the senior center," she said. "So far when we have received cuts the city has helped us with a couple of meals."
Moody said that if the budget ends up being cut $1 million, they will have to end up leaning on the city a bit more.
Many seniors centers throughout the area have kept their noses above water due to local support, but some are not so fortunate.
"There's a point in time when they can no longer do it and have hard budgets to consider so that's our fear here," Frost said. "It's just kind of a domino affect."
With cuts across the board to the department of corrections and child services, senior services are just one of many state programs wrestling for more breathing room
"We are in this era of baby boomers where the demand for these services are going up," Frost said.
"About 10,000 people a day are turning 60 in America so that compounds the fact that we have decreased funding in that area where we should have increased funding. People are living longer but unfortunately all are not living healthy lives as they age."
Alabama baby boomers have not taken the cuts laying down.
Seniors from the Munford Senior Center joined up with others from around the state on May 8 for a rally in Montgomery.
"Another group went on the 10th of May and we sent out postcards to our representatives and we had passed out the senior buttons and we hoped it wouldn't be cut that much," said Judy Moon, director of the Munford Senior Center.
"We knew we would be cut some but we did not know how much."
Morrison says that as the state's Commissioner of Senior Services his No. 1 priority is to make sure seniors are receiving the services they need to live healthy lives.
"We're already ranked six in the country of states that have seniors who go without food," Morrison said.
"The governor has directed me as the commissioner to do everything I can do to make sure to not cut any seniors in the state. We're taking all the hits we can to make sure we can provide these services.
"I'm going around the state and telling seniors, explaining how if we can't get this cost amendment passed in September it could deepen."
Frost says that meals will continue to be a priority, even if they must use operating funds to supplement potential budget cuts.
"There's a point in time where even if we had to give operating funds to meals we would still have to cut meals and we have had to head down that road for the past three years," Frost said.
If operating costs are used to supplement meals, the closure and consolidation of senior centers in smaller rural areas could be a major possibility in order to preserve the funding for operating costs.
"That's what we don't want to see happen," Frost said. "Our biggest concern is the centers that don't have a lot of local revenue coming in, and in rural areas where there is a high percentage of low-income seniors.
"Our job is to be advocates for seniors and funding is certainly a big part of advocacy."

CBS and the SEC decided to announce something yesterday that we've all known since back in January — the TV listings for the Iron Bowl and the Battle for the Boot.
As expected, CBS will carry the Friday, November 25th matchup between LSU and Arkansas beginning at 2:30pm ET. The game moves back to the Friday after Thanksgiving this year, after the Iron Bowl filled that slot in 2010 and 2009. This year's Battle for the Boot trophy will be played in Baton Rouge.
A day later, Alabama and Auburn's November 26th battle will kickoff at 3:30pm ET live from Jordan-Hare Stadium on The Plains.

Now Bruce Campbell Says 'Army of Darkness 2′ is Just "Internet Bulls—"
Just a few weeks ago, Bruce Campbell told a crowd at the Nashville Comic-Con that "yes," he would be returning for 'Army of Darkness 2.' One week later, 'Evil Dead' remake director Fede Alvarez said on Twitter that Sam Raimi would be directing 'Army of Darkness 2.' But now, when cornered at Comikaze in Los Angeles, Campbell admits there's "no reality" to an 'Army of Darkness' sequel and calls any talk otherwise just "internet bulls---."

The 111th Congress is now getting down to the difficult tasks, and many of the changes brought about by the elections are becoming clearer.
Those changes are significant. For example, the successful effort of Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) to become chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee and the retirement of Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va.) alter more than just the names at the top of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee's letterhead. The leadership changes have led to the arrival of many new key committee members, including Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), who won Davis' open seat. All told, it offers the opportunity for a major -- and welcome -- new tone to the committee's dynamics and style.
The committee's new chairman, Rep. Edolphus Towns (D-N.Y.), can be tough and exacting, but by nature, he has a less confrontational and less dogmatic style than Waxman does. Towns is thoughtful and softer spoken, and although he has expressed concern about the state of federal contracting, he does not appear to share Waxman's often visceral approach. Moreover, with Democrats now controlling Congress and the White House, there should be less appetite to conduct nonstop investigative hearings that are designed to expose every mistake made by the administration and treat every programmatic failure as prima facie evidence of fraud.
So what should we expect from the committee? There is little doubt it will continue to focus on acquisition and contracting, but other issues are also likely to be high on the agenda, including the current and future status of the federal civil service and acquisition workforce. The government's workforce challenges are approaching a crisis. It's not just about numbers, it's about skills gaps and imbalances and a continuing struggle to compete for talent in a broader, global market. Those challenges must be addressed.
Fortunately, a unified government often has the ability to challenge long-standing orthodoxies and drive change that might not otherwise be feasible. Given the broad consensus on the need to reinvigorate the civil service — particularly in critical, highly skilled positions such as acquisition — the potential exists for creative and substantial initiatives. A number of panels and commissions formed in the past decade have delivered insightful recommendations, including the 2003 Volcker Commission on public service and the more recent Gansler Commission and Acquisition Advisory Panel.
However, such opportunities are not without peril. There is always pressure on a new administration and Congress to move quickly to address high-priority issues. But as one of my colleagues is fond of saying, "Speed kills." It can indeed make things worse, particularly when the issues involved require careful thought, debate and deliberation.
Also, the challenges of moving too quickly are exacerbated by the twin problems of not yet having key senior administration officials in place and having to overcome the fierce partisanship that has largely marked recent congressional debates on the issues in question.
Thus, it will largely fall to the new leaders of the committee that has primary jurisdiction over federal procurement policy to drive a new kind of dialogue — one that can lead to meaningful improvement rather than change for change's sake. A real opportunity exists. Now is the time to make it a reality.

Rush tour date updates
Now that a summer Rush tour has been essentially confirmed by both Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee, I thought I'd post an update regarding tentative/rumored tour dates. There has been some news this evening out of Albuquerque, NM where the tour is set to kickoff. The Journal Pavilion in Albuquerque has been renamed to the Hard Rock Casino presents The Pavilion according to the Albuquerque Journal and other news outlets. The Albuquerque Journal article (subscription required) states the following (thanks Cy B):
... The Pavilion, which has a 15,000-seat capacity and hosts some of the largest concerts, already has booked Brooks and Dunn, Iron Maiden, Rush, Rihanna with Ke$ha, Toby Keith and several others for this summer's concert series, which starts May 22. ...
And 96 Rock announced on the air this evening that Rush would be playing there on June 29th (thanks rushsister), which I'm guessing was not supposed to happen since there has been no official announcement from the band. Either way, the pieces of the puzzle are coming together. I've also heard a tentative date of August 9th for the Shoreline Amphitheater show, early October Florida dates at both the Cruzan Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach and the Tampa Ford Amphitheatre in Tampa Bay, a September date at the Consol Energy Center in Pittsburgh, and a mid-August date at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Here's the updated list of tentative/rumored dates:

"Everybody just loved this invite postcard! I had put in a professional photo of my little guy. You're able to personalize it with their name and party info. I received it in glossy print which is perfect. I really liked the touch of having an RSVP website included, so far it's working out nice. It's kind of fun. One thing though, I would have liked to write some additional info on the back of the card. I had jotted the info down with a black sharpie which worked alright. But I wish I was able to add one of those lines and put in the additional info."
"I picked these invitations for my son's 3rd Birthday. They are adorable! I have ordered invitations from Tiny Prints before and I am ALWAYS satisfied! I will continue to order from this site in the future. The quality of their products is outstanding!"
"I loved this invitation! Once they arrived, i sent them out immediately and everyone loved them. The quality is sturdy and the picture came out great. There was only one color option but i wanted blue. I only wish we could pick the letter colors, because the yellow wasnt in my party theme. I will definitely be ordering from here now on!"
"This card was so cute! I really liked that I could add my sons picture and it was really easy to create the card. The picture makes it a nice keepsake for family. I received many compliments. The order arrived much earlier than the estimated arrival date so that made it even better!"
"I spent a lot of time online searching for the perfect invitations, and I found these. They arrived much sooner than was expected, and came in absolutely perfect. The paper is thick and the printing is exactly what you would hope. Completely satisfied, but I have also never had a bad experience with Tiny Prints!"

The very mention of MICHIGAN to most people will have them thinking of the automotive industry and the grittiness of Detroit. Those who have visited before will also know of its diverse beaches, dunes and cliffs which are scattered along the 3200-mile shoreline of its two vividly contrasting peninsulas.
The mitten-shaped Lower Peninsula is dominated from its southeastern corner by the industrial giant of Detroit, surrounded by satellite cities heavily devoted to the automotive industry. In the west, the scenic 350-mile Lake Michigan shoreline drive passes through likeable little ports before reaching the stunning Sleeping Bear Dunes and resort towns such as Traverse City, in the peninsula's balmy northwest corner. The desolate, dramatic and thinly populated Upper Peninsula, reaching out from Wisconsin like a claw to separate lakes Superior and Michigan, is a far cry indeed from the cosmopolitan south.
In the mid-seventeenth century, French explorers forged a successful trading relationship with the Chippewa, Ontario and other Native American tribes. The British, who acquired control after 1763, were far more brutal. Governor Henry Hamilton, the "Hair Buyer of Detroit", advocated taking scalps rather than prisoners. Ever since, Michigan's economy has developed in waves, the eighteenth-century fur, timber and copper booms culminating in the state establishing itself at the forefront of the nation's manufacturing capacity, thanks to its abundant raw materials, good transport links and the genius of innovators such as Henry Ford. Today the state is attempting to reinvent itself as a "creative hub" for new technologies, as the automotive industry continues to decline.

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
The 42 miles between the attractive fishing villages of Grand Marais and Munising form the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, a splendid array of multicoloured cliffs, rolling dunes and secluded sandy beaches. Rain, wind, ice and sun have carved and gouged arches, columns and caves into the face of the lakeshore, all stained different hues. Hiking trails run along the clifftops, and Hwy-58 takes you close to the water, but the best way to see the cliffs is by boat. Pictured Rocks Cruises offers a three-hour narrated tour that leaves from the City Pier in Munising (late May to early Oct 2–8 trips daily; $34; t 906/387-3386, w http://www.picturedrocks.com). Less than a mile farther along the lake, at 1204 Commercial St, Shipwreck Tours gives two-hour narrated cruises in a glass-bottomed boat, with surprisingly clear views of three shipwrecks – one intact (June to early Oct 2–3 trips daily; $28; t 906/387-4477, w http://www.shipwrecktours.com). Those in a hurry can get a glimpse of the cliffs by visiting the Miners Castle Overlook, twelve miles east of Munising, or Munising Falls, one of a half-dozen nearby waterfalls, near the village's well-signposted visitors bureau (Mon–Fri 9am–5pm; t 906/387-2138, w http://www.munising.org). In Munising, Scotty's Motel, 415 Cedar St (t 906/387-2449; $61–80), and the Munising Motel, 332 E Onota St (t 906/387-3187; $81–100), are fairly comfortable places to stay. At 101 E Munising Ave, The Navigator (t 906/387-1555) is the only restaurant in Munising with a view of Lake Superior, and serves breakfast any time along with steaks, seafood, pizza and burgers.

Sleepwalker : A Thriller
Cops and robbers don't mix
It's not that Micayla Lange is afraid of the clinking she hears coming from the first floor of the empty McMansion she's housesitting for her uncle Nicco. She's a cop, after all. It's just that finding out her boyfriend was cheating on her was enough drama for one night. Now she's alone on New Year's Eve, wearing flannel pajamas and wielding a Glock 22 as she zeroes in on the unmistakable source of the sound: Uncle Nicco's private office.
Jason Davis steals things for a living, so unexpected developments are a natural part of the job. Getting caught red-handed by a hot, pigtail-sporting police officer in what is supposed to be a gangster's deserted house is just one more twist in the game. Kind of like finding incriminating photos in Nicco Marino's safe, only to discover the cop—and the security cameras— have gotten a real good look at his face.
Unfortunately for Mick, she also got a good look at the damned pictures. Her "uncle" might love her like family, but if he knows she's seen evidence that implicates him in the murder of a city councilman, she doesn't like her chances. Which is why she's having a hard time reconciling her professional instincts with what she is rapidly concluding is an inescapable fact: She's about to help a criminal get away with a suitcase full of stolen money. And she's going with him.
Mick and Jason's race for their lives hurtles them through the dangerous Michigan wilderness on speedboat and snowmobile. As their adventure heats up and their enemies close in, Mick is torn between her duty to the force and the combustible passion engulfing her and her unlikely partner in crime. She'll have to turn Jason in sooner or later . . . if they survive. But will they ever get a second chance at love?

1 . Good story
Posted January 12, 2012 by D. Branch , Jacksonville
I enjoyed this book as I have all of Karen Robard's works....the only thing was it did become a little tedious for the hero and heroine to get out of the snow! I would have liked a little more action after they made it back to the city.

CHOC Children's was recently awarded with a $1,040,000 grant from Blue Shield of California to support CHOC's efforts to become an accountable care organization (ACO). CHOC was one of only 18 hospitals, health systems, clinics and physician groups – many serving underserved populations - in the state to be awarded the grant.
A key provision in the new health law, ACOs are arrangements between providers and payors creating clinical and financial integration. ACOs are intended to foster greater efficiency and quality in the delivery of care.
Blue Shield's ACO grants are being made as part of the non-profit health plan's two percent pledge to limit annual net income to two percent of revenue and to return the difference collected above that amount to customers and to the community. The grants represent an average of $10 million for each of the two fiscal years (2010 and 2011) that the pledge has been applied.
CHOC will utilize the grant to support its mission of providing care to underserved children in Orange County. The funds will be used to enhance case management, health education, nutrition and social services.
About Blue Shield of California: Blue Shield of California, an independent member of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, is a not-for-profit health plan with 3.3 million members, 4,800 employees, and one of the largest provider networks in California. Founded in 1939 and headquartered in San Francisco, Blue Shield of California offers a wide range of commercial and government products throughout the state. The company has contributed more than $125 million over the past four years to the Blue Shield of California Foundation, which was named one of Businessweek's 20 most generous corporate foundations.
About CHOC Children's: Named one of the best children's hospitals by U.S. News & World Report (2013-2014) and a 2013 Leapfrog Top Hospital, CHOC Children's is exclusively committed to the health and well-being of children through clinical expertise, advocacy, outreach and research that brings advanced treatment to pediatric patients. Affiliated with the University of California, Irvine, CHOC's regional healthcare network includes two state-of-the-art hospitals in Orange and Mission Viejo, several primary and specialty care clinics, a pediatric residency program, and four centers of excellence - The CHOC Children's Heart, Neuroscience, Orthopaedic and Hyundai Cancer Institutes. CHOC earned the Gold Level CAPE Award from the California Council of Excellence, the only children's hospital in California to ever earn this distinction, and was awarded Magnet designation, the highest honor bestowed to hospitals for nursing excellence. Recognized for extraordinary commitment to high-quality critical care standards, CHOC's Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) is the first in the United States to earn the Pediatric Beacon Award for Critical Care Excellence.

[JURIST] Two members of Haiti's nine-member Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) [official website] supervising the country's presidential election claimed late Sunday that the vote was being manipulated after discrepancies appeared on the election website. Figures reported on the site showed leading candidate [JURIST report] and former president Rene Preval [Wikipedia profile] holding only 49.1% of the vote, too low to avoid a runoff election against the second-place candidate (currently another ex-president, Leslie Manigat, with 11.7% support), but a computer-generated graphic on the same site showed him with 52%. Preval told reporters: "I went to school and the CEP has given two figures, 52 percent and 49 percent. Now there is a problem... Forty-nine percent I don't pass. Fifty percent I pass." CEP member Pierre Richard Duchemin, in charge of the voting tabulation center, is quoted by Reuters as saying "The percent which is given by the graphic is done by the computer according to figures entered by a data operator and the computer can't lie...There is an unwholesome manipulation of the data. Nothing is transparent." Duchemin and fellow commissioner Patrick Fequiere blamed CEP director-general Jacques Bertrand for the problem. Preval, a champion of Haiti's poor and a close ally of former president Jean-Bertrand Aristide [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] who was removed from power and transported out of the country in a US-backed coup in 2004, is regarded with some concern by wealthier Haitians who supported the change in government which led to the insertion of a UN Stabilization Force [official website] to quell ongoing violence. Despite some delays and early allegations of vote rigging [JURIST report], international monitors have to this point concluded that the February 7 poll was a success [IMMHE statement]. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Montenegro [government website] has set April 30th [RFE report] as the date for a nationwide referendum for independence from Serbia. Serbia and Montenegro [JURIST news archive] are the only two surviving republics of the former Yugoslavia, which broke apart in the 1990s during the regime of former president Slobodan Milosevic [JURIST news archive]. Since then, the nations have become a loose union and Montenegro started taking steps towards independence [BBC report] last year. Since both nations have started negotiations to join the European Union [official website], EU officials have launched [BBC report] two separate negotiations with Belgrade and Podgorica. EU officials have also asked [press release] that Montenegro reach a consensus with Serbia on the rules of the referendum, in order to ensure the legitimacy of the vote and maintain EU support. Serbia has no plans to hold a similar referendum. Speaking of what he called the "renewal" of Montenegrin statehood, Montenegro Foreign Minister Miodrag Vlahovic has said [press release] that "the world will recognize the outcome of the democratic referendum process. This confirmation we have from all the diplomatic factors." Montenegro was nominally independent for several hundred years before joining Serbia in 1918 and becoming a part of post-World War II Yugoslavia in 1945.
[JURIST] German officials are in talks with their US counterparts for the release of a German-born man who has been held in Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] for almost four years. Murat Kurnaz [Amnesty International case sheet; chronology, PDF], a Turkish national, was detained in Pakistan in 2001 on suspicion of terrorism and later handed over to US forces, arriving at Guantanamo in 2002. Negotiations began when Chancellor Angela Merkel [official website in German, BBC profile] met with President Bush [JURIST report] last month. The German government hopes to obtain the release by the summer. If Kurnaz is released, Germany would need to give the US "guarantees of security", such as continued surveillance of Kurnaz at all times. Last year, Kurnaz claimed [JURIST report] that he had been subjected to torture, physical abuse and sexual humiliation by US interrogators. Reuters has more. Deutsche Welle has local coverage.
[JURIST] China [JURIST news archive] Sunday issued it first guidelines on HIV/AIDS [JURIST news archive], banning discrimination against those infected by the virus and providing for free treatment. The new guidelines were promulgated in response to the already-large number of people with HIV/AIDS in the country [Avert.org backgrounder] - currently estimated by the government at 650,000 - and warnings by international experts that the numbers of infected individuals could rise due to the lack of government support and lack of information about the disease. The Regulation of AIDS Prevention and Control [Xinhua report] was approved by the State Council, China's cabinet, and signed by Premier Wen Jiabao [BBC profile] and is due to take effect March 1. While the UNAIDS China office [official website] sees the guidelines as good progress, other international experts warn the rules do not go far enough and fear that social stigma could still prevent many from seeking treatment. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Insisting his was a country where freedom prevailed, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan [Prime Ministry website] Saturday expressly condemned a new ruling by Turkey's high administrative court that a teacher should be refused promotion because of her decision to wear a religious headscarf outside of her classes. Religious dress [JURIST news archive] has been a controversial issue in Turkey, with the Islamic-oriented Justice and Development Party [party website in Turkish] government demanding that the ban on women wearing headscarves in schools and other public accommodations be lifted while the courts and the military, harking back to secularist policies [backgrounder] set in the era of state founder Kemal Ataturk [profile], continue to restrict Islamic influence on the nation. The Council of State [official website] held that teacher Aytac Kilinc was setting a bad example for her students and had violated secular principles rooted in the Turkish constitution [text] which prevents the state from showing a preference for a particular religion. Kilinc plans to appeal the denial of her promotion to the European Court of Human Rights [official website]. In November 2005, the ECHR ruled [press release] that Turkey can ban [JURIST report] the wearing of headscarves in public and private universities in an effort to minimize extremist political movements. AP has more.
[JURIST] The government of Yemen [official website] has announced it will prosecute the editors of three privately owned Yemeni newspapers, the Yemen Observer [media website in English], al-Ra'i el-Am and al-Huriya, for offending Islam after the newspapers reprinted caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad [JURIST news archive] that have prompted worldwide Muslim protests. The newspapers' licenses have also been suspended [Article 19 protest letter, PDF]. The Yemen Observer reports in its Internet edition - not yet explicitly prohibited - that its editor, Mohammed al-Asadi, has been detained indefinitely and denied bail. Last week, the editors of Jordan's Shihan and al-Mehwar newspapers were arrested and charged [BBC report] with similar offenses in Jordan after reprinting the cartoons. NCTV has more. A Malaysian English-language paper was shut down [JURIST report] Thursday over re-publication, and the editor of an Indonesian tabloid has also been taken into custody. AP has more.Meanwhile, protests over the publications have continued around the world, including a Saturday gathering in Philadelphia of several hundred Muslims outside the offices of the Philadelphia Inquirer [local coverage], one of the few American news outlets that chose to publish one of the controversial drawings. Inquirer editors have explained [editorial] that their intention was "to inform our readers, not to inflame them," and met with protesters outside the building. Reuters has more. A peaceful demonstration of about 5000, aimed at setting out the views of moderate Muslims, was also held in London [BBC report] on Saturday.2:17 PM ET - Late reports say that the managing editors of two Algerian weeklies have also been jailed for republishing the Prophet cartoons and will face trial. Berkane Bouderbala of the weekly Essafir [media website in Arabic] and Kamel Boussad of the Panorama weekly are being held under a provision of the Algerian penal code which states "any person who offends the prophet and the emissaries of god or denigrates the dogma or precepts of Islam" faces three to five years in prison. AFP has more. From Algeria, L'Expression has local coverage [in French].
[JURIST] Saddam Hussein chief defense counsel Khalil Dulaimi [JURIST news archive] and an associate told reporters Sunday that Saddam and his seven co-defendants would begin a hunger strike Monday to protest the legitimacy of the proceedings against them but shortly thereafter retracted the statement, saying a strike was discussed but would not begin. Dulaimi told Reuters "We have now checked and it seems almost certain that the president no longer plans a hunger strike at least tomorrow as we thought earlier ... though some of his colleagues may." The trial [JURIST news archive] is set to resume Monday and while Saddam and some co-defendants have boycotted [JURIST report] the last two sessions in response to events at the January 29 hearing [JURIST report] presided over by new chief judge Ra'uf Rasheed Abdel-Rahman, an anonymous source from the Iraqi High Criminal Court [official website] said all defendants would be forced to attend Monday's proceedings. Reuters has more.
[JURIST] Britain's Ministry of Defense [official website] has said it will launch an investigation into video images published Sunday in the British News of the World [report; full video] tabloid which show British soldiers beating four young Iraqi men they detained after a street disturbance in southern Iraq in 2004. The video was apparently filmed by another soldier heard on audio in the background and was turned over to the newspaper by what it described as a whistleblower. Prime Minister Tony Blair [official profile], speaking from South Africa to the BBC, said "We take seriously any allegation of mistreatment and these will be investigated very fully indeed." This is not the first allegation of abuse by British soldiers in Iraq; a number are already facing court-martial [JURIST report], although abuse charges against seven soldiers in connection with a 2003 incident were dropped [JURIST report] in November. In December 2005, the House of Lords ruled [JURIST report] that British law forbids UK soldiers in Iraq from subjecting Iraqi prisoners to cruel or degrading treatment while in their custody. BBC News has more.2:26 PM ET - The British MOD has now confirmed that an urgent Royal Military Police [official website] investigation is underway after what it called "recent and very serious allegations of abuse by British Soldiers in Iraq". The Department said:
British troops are not above the law, and it has always been MOD policy to initiate a Service police investigation where there are any grounds to suspect that a criminal act has, or might have been, committed. This case is no different.

When Freeview PVRs arrived, it was easy to see how the ability to pause live TV and record to a hard drive would revolutionise the way we watch TV. The first-generation devices only had one tuner though, and hence the ability to only record and watch one channel.

Lighthouse Family
A Northern soul duo who recorded the single "Lifted" in 1995 but had to wait two years for it to become a hit, the Lighthouse Family was formed in Newcastle by vocalist Tunde Baiyewu and programmer/keyboard player Paul Tucker. Both had been born in London, though Baiyewu lived in Nigeria for ten years before returning to attend college in the north, where he met Tucker. The duo began recording, and though Baiyewu had trepidations about his vocal abilities, they recorded the singles "Ocean Drive" and "Lifted" during 1994-95 for Wild Card Records. Their debut album, also named Ocean Drive, was released in late 1995. It was almost two years later, however, that "Lifted" hit the top of the British charts, as well as those of several other European countries. The duo's second album, Postcards from Heaven, appeared later that year. ~ John Bush, Rovi

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation says the new I-244 bridge over the Arkansas River near downtown Tulsa will open Wednesday night.
Once the new bridge opens, ODOT says all 244 traffic will shift onto it and the old bridge will be demolished and rebuilt.
State officials gave the new multi-modal bridge spanning the Arkansas River on westbound I-244 in Tulsa the green light in March 2011.
The Oklahoma Transportation Commission approved a contract with Manhattan Road and Bridge to replace the structurally deficient bridge with a double-decker bridge. The cost of the entire project is $78 million.
ODOT says the new structure will incorporate highway lanes on the top side, with two dedicated future rail lines and an area for bicycle and pedestrian traffic underneath.
The entire project is scheduled to be finished by next summer.

Yes, but only as long as Pages has not been closed.Quote:

Thanks for the reply, I don't think I explained very well. I went to work on a document that I had, and I accidentally deleted it. :(. It didn't load right away and I thought it was just a blank document, so I got rid of it not realizing that it was my document. Is there a "recycling bin" type of feature?
Oh shittums.
The iPad does not have a centralized recycle bin, meaning that iOS does not provide you with an option to undo a deleted file.
It seems the only option would be to try a file recovery tool, while the iPad is connected to a PC, though this is just speculation.
Ideally, you would always also save the file somewhere else, such as Dropbox.
Bummer...ok, thanks for the help anyway. :)

Re: Wii QuestionNetflix can be run through the Wii also with a wireless internet connection. It is nice to have instant access to movies, no need to go out and rent.
Re: Wii Questioncomplaint I hear about netflix, is you get menu movies.
Meaning not many on there to chose from, and then they rotate what choices are there Let's say you want to see an old Eastwood western or Caddyshack They are not there
Re: Wii QuestionWe did the 30-day free trial of Netflix, and canceled on day 29. All the movies we wanted to watch were only available through the mail, which costs $2 more a month. Plus, I wasn't thrilled with the video quality on the Wii. The movies looked better on my laptop.
We figured we'd be just as well off with Redbox. I can go to their website, lookup the movie we want, find a redbox close by that has it, and reserve it. And, they are $1 each. I can rent 7 movies a month, and still be ahead over Netflix.
Re: Wii Questionfrom what I know about these matters a Wii can preform the same tasks as all the other units that the teenagers are all nuts about
I have a Wii and it is loads of fun
Re: Wii QuestionOnly five games for wii?!
No offense, but I think that's jut SAD!!!

Patti's Saga of an RV Rookie: Life with a Brazil Nut
September 6, 2011 by Patti F. · 6 Comments
Things happens in the underbelly of RV parks that probably wouldn't happen in "real" life. Take late last night, for example:
My husband, Renato, and I were walking Lap 4 of the 5 around the park it takes to equal a mile. Our new neighbors, two couples traveling together, called out for us to join them at their table, resplendent with wine bottles and glasses.
Now, while I may appear outgoing in print, I can be slow to socialize and tire quickly of anything that doesn't look like my bed and my Nook. Once I get going though, I can yak up a major storm. Renato, on the other hand, is unquestionably on the shy side, unless he knows you. Then he can get going pretty good, too.
So, we sated this nice people's curiosity about us. Yes, I'm from Ohio, and yes I went to Ohio State and yes, it was under the reign of "3 yards and a cloud of dust" Woody Hayes. Our new friends' demeanors were a study in politeness but the story of my corn-fed life didn't seem to bowl anyone over. But my husband's story…well…it went like this:
Them: "So where did you grow up?'
Him: "Brazil."
Them: " WHAT? BRAZIIIIIIIIIIL?"
Me: "Yup, he grew up in the Amazon Rain Forest wearing banana leaves for diapers and blowing poison darts at the local Indians" (hahahahahah…me, laughing hysterically at myself since I've said this 1,000 times since we've been married and I never tire of me.)
Him: "Not true….I grew up in the southern part of Brazil, Sao Leopoldo , a city in Rio Grande do Sul. It's gaucho country."
One of Them ( female): "Wow! That explains why you are so HANDSOME! Isn't he HANDSOME?" (yes, her hubby was sitting right there…)
Another One of Them ( the other female): "No kidding! You're so EXOTIC!
Belly laughs all around, including Renato, for whom this feedback was shockingly assertive coming from total strangers. But it wasn't over…
One of Them (male): "So, Renato, are you the Boy from Ipanema?"
Talk about mass hysteria!
So, Dear Readers, What do you think are the odds I have brought this up about a thousand times since it happened?
Happy tales, and here's to RV life and "The Boy from Ipanema."

And the 2012 drought can be blamed on…
There's no doubt that last year's historic drought will remain etched in farmers' minds for generations to come, and a new study has named the culprit behind this epic event.
Man-man climate change -– a scapegoat blamed for similar weather events -– is off the hook.
Instead, extreme natural events led to the drought, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Drought Task Force.
"Neither ocean states nor human-induced climate change, factors that can provide long-lead predictability, appeared to play significant roles in causing severe rainfall deficits over the major corn-producing regions of central Great Plains," the report summary said.
Just how bad was the drought? Study leader Martin Hoerling, a NOAA meteorologist, told CNN reporters that the drought in Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota and North Dakota was the worst since record-keeping began in 1895, even eclipsing the notorious Dust Bowl droughts of 1934 and 1936.
"The event was rare, and we estimated maybe a once-in-a-couple-of-hundred-years event," Hoerling said.
Hoerling added, "I'm an advocate of global warming because science tells me that greenhouse gases have warmed the planet by about 1 degree Celsius in the last 100 years. So there's no question about that," he said. "But the science also tells that every drought that's occurring isn't a result of climate change."
See, "Study: Natural causes, not human activity, behind Plains drought."
The report also admitted that many meteorologists failed to accurately predict the drought.
"Summertime Great Plains rainfall has been in an upward trend since the early 20th Century and the last major drought occurred 25 years ago in 1988. The 2012 drought thus was a —climate surprise—, and would not have been anticipated from simple considerations of central U.S. rainfall behavior in the recent past," the authors wrote.
As 2013 summer drought outlook, many climatologists and meteorologists agree that it may rival last summer's drought, especially in areas west of the Mississippi River. Read more.

NO, NO, NO! Climate change is responsible for this drought! It was responsible for hurricane Sandy. Climate change is responsible for every newsworthy weather event, drought or flood, rain or shine, blizzard or early spring..everything. Climate change is the newest growth industry and if you let it off the hook our intrepid researchers and bloggers will starve. Rah, rah, rah -- go climate change!!!
Humans are impacting the planet. That is a fact. If you believe it's a good thing that humans impact the planet, that's your opinion and no one can argue with it. But it is mental illness to deny that humans impact the planet.
If you actually read the "full report" you will see that it contains a lot of nice pictures, and maps with temperatures and rainfall patterns, and lots of statements like "in many of the areas with low rainfall, it was also quite hot"...... then the authors state "ocean temperatures and green house gases had nothing to do with the drought". Sorry folks but this is bogus science.
When the human mind becomes depraved , man begins to worship the ocean,the trees & squiggly bats& wiggle tailed salamanders. His immoral logic reasons that burning food( corn) for energy &placing ape size windmills in the sky is genius . His cause & effect mentality makes him believe he caused the weather
Drovers, This is the exception that proves the rule, huh? The longer you go on without refuting the false idea that there is man-caused global warming/climate change, the smellier the egg on your face will get.

Great side dish. The only thing I would change next time is to add an extra can of cream corn and reduce the plain corn by one cup. We would like it a bit creamier.

This is amazing! My family loved it and demanded it become a regular weekend side.

Coronal and axial CT images in lung windows are provided. There is diffuse enlargement of the trachea and the main bronchi with a corrugated appearance of the trachea. The axial CT image at the level of the lung apices demonstrates enlargement of the trachea with a small right-sided tracheal diverticulum arising posteriorly. The lung bases demonstrate cylindrical bronchiectasis.
Mounier-Kuhn syndrome, also known as congenital tracheobronchomegaly, is a rare congenital disorder of unknown etiology. Due to associations with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Marfan syndrome, and cutis laxa, it is thought to be related to a connective tissue disorder. Pathologically, the disorder is characterized by atrophy or absence of elastic fibers and thinning of the muscular mucosa of the trachea and main bronchi. The trachea and main bronchi are therefore dilated with multiple mucosal outpouchings, which collect secretions. The lack of elastic fibers also results in a flaccid trachea, which collapses on expiration (due to increased intrathoracic pressure) and dilates on inspiration (due to decreased intrathoracic pressure). Due to these anatomic and physiologic abnormalities, patients are predisposed to stagnation of secretions with an ineffective cough reflex.
Patients are usually diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40 and present with recurrent pulmonary infections, which often date back to childhood. Patients may also complain of dyspnea on exertion and hemoptysis. However, some patients are asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally.
The imaging findings of Mounier-Kuhn include dilation of the trachea and bronchi with numerous mucosal outpouchings between the cartilaginous rings, resulting in a corrugated appearance. Many patients also will develop tracheal diverticula arising from the posterolateral trachea at the junction of the posterior membrane and the anterior cartilaginous portion of the trachea. Numerous tracheal measurements have been published with the transverse diameter of the trachea 2 cm above the aortic arch measuring greater than 25-30 mm in men and 21-27 mm in women. Bronchial diameter measurements of 20-24 cm on the right and 15-23 mm on the left have also been used.

Cedar Rapids Weather
Health Officials: Flu Cases Crowding Iowa Emergency RoomsBy Heather Hubbs, Reporter
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - This is the worst start to the flu season in more than a decade. More than 22-hundred people are sick, many packing hospitals across the country.
The CDC says influenza is widespread to 41 states. Some of the worst cases are in the Midwest. In Minnesota, at least 27 have died, another 6 in Illinois, 13 in Indiana. So far, no deaths have been reported in Iowa.
In Cedar Rapids, St. Luke's has tested more than 1,000 people for the flu since November, of those about 200 have tested positive for influenza. At Mercy, they've had 272 confirmed cases.
Not only is this one of the worst flu seasons because of the high number of cases, those impacted say they've never felt so awful.
"Felt like I was beat with a truck, like someone knocked me over." Stephanie St. John is finally recovering from a 10 day bought with the flu.
"I sing in church and I went to sing and realized I wasn't singing alto I was singing bass so that was first then the headache and the aches," said St. John. Stephanie is one of hundreds in the area who have battled the flu, and doctors believe the worst is still to come.
If you come down with symptoms, you're advised to call the doctor right away to get medicine.
"It doesn't cure the flu it just makes the symptoms better, maybe shortens the illness but you have to have them within 24-48 hours of the symptoms," said Dr. Timothy Quinn, Mercy Care Physician.
To help prevent the spread of the disease doctors recommenced, washing hands, keeping clean, and containing germs. Which is why many hospitals and doctors offices, such as Mercy, have kiosks at every entrance with face masks, tissues, and hand sanitizer. Health officials say it's not too late to get a flu shot.
"Even if you're exposed today or tomorrow you will start building immunities from a flu shot you would get today," said Dr. Quinn.
Stephanie certainly wishes she had gotten the vaccine. "I don't like needles but I'd rather have a needle for a second than this for 10 days," said St. John.
Health officials in the central Iowa are asking people with minor illnesses to avoid hospital emergency rooms because of an influx of flu-related cases.
Officials at several hospitals in the Des Moines area said Thursday that local emergency rooms are experiencing heavy volumes of patients and wait times due to flu cases. They recommend that people with non-life-threatening illnesses visit their primary health care provider, a local urgent care or walk-in clinic. So far hospitals in Cedar Rapids have not restricted visitors, but both say they will in the infection rate increases and they believe patients could be at risk.
Iowa health officials have noted a jump in flu cases this season. They are encouraging residents to get vaccinated.
