TEAMS: Kansas City Chiefs, Cleveland Browns, Notre Dame Fighting Irish
(AP) -- The Kansas City Chiefs' search for normalcy may go on for much longer than the remaining NFL schedule.
For Brady Quinn and Peyton Hillis, a different type of closure is at hand.
With emotions still prevalent after last week's tragic events, Quinn will try to lead the Chiefs to another victory when he and Hillis return to Cleveland to face the Browns for the first time Sunday.
Kansas City (2-10) is still grieving the death of linebacker Jovan Belcher, who killed his girlfriend and then turned the gun on himself in front of coach Romeo Crennel and general manager Scott Pioli last weekend.
Despite the tragedy, the Chiefs were on the field the following day, and beat Carolina 27-21 to end an eight-game slide amid strong emotions at Arrowhead Stadium.
"We have to deal with the events of the last few days, and it's not over, and it may not be over for some of us for most of our lives, but time heals all wounds, and so we're going to start working on the time thing," Crennel said.
A visit to Cleveland (4-8) may provide a chance for some focus for at least Quinn and Hillis.
Quinn was drafted 22nd overall out of Notre Dame by Crennel and the Browns in 2007, but never lived up to lofty expectations and was dealt to Denver for Hillis and two draft picks in March 2010. He won only three of 12 games as a starter with Cleveland, finishing his 14-game tenure there with 10 touchdowns, nine interceptions and a 66.8 passer rating.
After spending two years on the bench with the Broncos, Quinn reunited with Crennel in Kansas City and has been given a second chance following ineffectiveness and a concussion to starter Matt Cassel.
He's finally making it count. Quinn completed 19 of 23 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns last week - his first scoring passes since Dec. 6, 2009. He was widely praised even more for his leadership qualities in a somber post-game press conference, discussing the recent murder-suicide.
"I feel like I can do a decent job of adjusting to pretty much anything," Quinn said. "I think anytime you have an opportunity to play more and get more experience, you're going to continue to grow and improve as a player."
Hillis, meanwhile, is still waiting his turn after signing a one-year contract with the Chiefs following two vastly differing seasons with the Browns.
The bruising running back was the toast of Cleveland in 2010, setting career highs in rushing yards (1,177), carries (270), receptions (61), receiving yards (477) and touchdowns (13).
He tried to turn that brief stardom into a big contract, but instead proved to be a headache in an injury-plagued 2011. Hillis was limited to 587 yards and three TDs in 10 games, and Cleveland's Joe Thomas wasn't shy about expressing his disdain for his former teammate.
"He was everything people knew about him - hard-working, blue-collar, tough, would do anything for anybody on the team," Thomas said. "All he cared about was winning, and then all of a sudden the next year, all he cared about was trying to get his new contract.
"He crippled our offense. To have Peyton going through a contract dispute and basically refusing to play, it was a big distraction. I think it was better for both sides (he left). At that point, the situation with him here was toxic and he didn't want to be here and players didn't want him here. It was better for a fresh start."
Not better for Hillis, who has 193 yards and a touchdown on 59 carries. He fired back at Thomas on Thursday.
"Joe Thomas, he can have his opinions all he wants. It's kind of like a crazy ex-girlfriend, you know? It's been over a year. Get on with it."
It's unlikely the Browns will see a heavy dose of Hillis since Jamaal Charles is among the league's top rushers with 1,055 yards with 4.8 per carry.
Cleveland, though, has held opponents to 65.7 rushing yards over the last three games, winning 20-17 at Oakland last Sunday for its second straight victory. That may have eased the pressure on embattled coach Pat Shurmur.
"I don't want to talk about my future, OK?" he said. "I'm trying to get our team ready to play the Chiefs and then after that and so on and so forth. I don't look at it that way. I'm not taking any half-swings here. We'll just play it out and see what happens.
"I feel good about where we're going, we've just got to keep going."
Part of that encouragement may stem from a season-high 475 yards of offense last week, and improvement from Brandon Weeden.
The rookie has completed 63.9 percent of his passes for 732 yards with four touchdowns and three picks over the past three games, and is coming off a season-high 364 yards through the air against the Raiders.

A federal mandate to implement a GPS controlled system for all freight and passenger trains is scheduled to take place by the end of 2015, but there is no federal funding for the project, and so the question becomes, "how to fund it?" Gerald Hanas, General Manager of the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District, informed the NICTD board during their meeting Wednesday that "Positive Train Control", or PTC, is a system that has never been done before, and is meant to minimize human error to avoid collisions. Hanas says the project could cost the District about 35-million dollars. He also stated that while they are in the process of trying to restructure bonds to finance it, the implementation date may moved to a later date.

If wireless instrument doesn't exist, build it
By Mark V. Goloby
It started with a question, which created the need, which begat the search, which ended with a completely new tool for chemical injection monitoring.
The question seemed simple enough: How can we tell if a chemical injection pump quits injecting?
We have experience using wireless data techniques to remotely monitor cathodic protection systems, and our customer needed the answer to that question to insure no interruption of the prescribed level of chemical injected into his pipeline.
We first searched for an off-the-shelf solution to integrate into a wireless data device. Given low flow rates as little as one-half gallon per day and an actual per-stroke injection rate measured in cubic centimeters per stroke, such an instrument was not readily available. After a fruitless search, the only alternative was to develop it.
First, we conducted an analysis of the operating environment, which is an investigation into the operating conditions in which the product must perform.
Most injection pumps operate within a Class I, Division II, location under high pressure. Many are offshore, requiring special consideration for salt-air conditions. Those factors, plus the low flow rate, made for an interesting challenge.
We determined that the desired—or even better—results could be obtained on the low-pressure, gravity feed side of the injection cycle, as opposed to the high-pressure side. This eliminated the need for the high-cost fittings and equipment specifications required to operate under high pressure. Complying with the Class I, Division II, and addressing the salt-air environment remained a challenge, however.
Nothing was readily available to measure injection rates of less than 5 gallons per day (gpd), yet we needed an instrument flexible enough to measure a range of flow rates, from as little as 1/2 gpd to 20+ gpd.
The answer came with an analysis of the measurement technique. While it was impossible to measure the flow in stream, the delivery of a chemical can be broken down into smaller increments that can be tracked on a per-day basis. This formed the foundation for what we now call our chemical injection monitoring (CIM) system.
The chemical flows from a large holding tank into the CIM, a measuring device incremented to meet a defined volume measurement. These increments accumulate and then deliver over a wireless data network to a host system. This allows customers to access the data as they wish. You can establish alarms for high and low activity, as well as a database to accumulate long-term trends. From this data, users can perform a more thorough analysis of the effectiveness of the chemical injection program.
In order to answer the original question-"Is the pump injecting chemical?"-a set of generated data points vastly changes chemical inventory management. Suddenly, knowing the pump is injecting chemical is a minor concern.
With the CIM, we now know how much chemical is injected, how much has been injected over a variety of date ranges, and how much is left in the holding tank, all on a real-time basis.
Historically, a technician went to a chemical injection point to determine its status. There, the tech determined whether the pump was vapor locked, whether the chemical had run dry, and whether everything was in proper working order.
In the first two scenarios, there are faults with the injected chemical scenario. In the third, the trip was a waste of time. All three required a return trip in short order.
The CIM transforms the current status from an unknown to a known factor. The technician can now reasonably determine in advance if a trip is necessary and, if so, what tools or chemicals to take.
Also, with real-time information from the CIM, the company can implement tighter chemical inventory management techniques. Depletion time can be anywhere from a month to 9 months, and real-time metering makes real-time billing a new possibility.
All these factors lead to higher levels of asset integrity management and more efficient use of injection chemicals. IT
Behind the byline
Mark V. Goloby, president of Total Cellular Technologies since 1993, has been in the business of providing wireless data systems for various pipeline-related applications, as well as a host of other wireless human-to-machine interfaces.

The Department of Veterans Affairs is poised to welcome nearly 266,000 more veterans into its medical centers and clinics across the country by expanding access to health care enrollment for certain veterans who had been excluded due to their income.
Under a new regulation, the VA will enroll veterans whose income exceeds current meanstested thresholds by up to 10 percent. These veterans were excluded from VA health care enrollment when income limits were imposed in 2003 on veterans with no service-connected disabilities or other special eligibility for care. There is no income limit for veterans with compensable service-connected disabilities or for veterans being seen for their service-connected disabilities.
Veterans who have applied for VA health care but were rejected due to income at any point in 2009 will have their applications reconsidered under the new income threshold formula. Those who applied before 2009 but were rejected due to income, must reapply.
Information about enrollment and an income and assets calculator are available at www.va.gov/healtheligibility. The calculator provides a format in which veterans enter their household income, number of dependents and zip codes to see if they may qualify for VA health care enrollment.
In addition to applying online, veterans also may contact VA's Health Benefits Service Center at (877) 222-VETS (1-877-222-8387). Each VA medical center across the country has an enrollment coordinator available to provide veterans with enrollment and eligibility information.
Bill Dippery is Mifflin County VA director and can be reached at 248-6421; faxed at 248-2527; or e-mailed at firstname.lastname@example.com.

CRON or automated task to execute scripts
I have a number of PHP scripts that I wrote that I use to compile information across the web. I have an unique script for each page that I attempt to get information from, however, since I am trying to execute numerous scripts in a single cron task, it looks like the script is erroring out (and not telling me why).
This is my current script that I have running every night:
Code PHP:$file = @file_get_contents('http://site.mine.com/pages/param1'); $file = @file_get_contents('http://site.mine.com/pages/param2'); $file = @file_get_contents('http://site.mine.com/pages/param3');
Each of the three scripts are also executable by just visiting through a browser, but they typically take too long to execute or error 500 out.
What is the correct way to mimic viewing a page through an automated task?

Since you do this in a cron job I'd go for curl or wget. No need to fire up PHP for this.
multiple runs are run independently of each other so if one of them crashes all the others still go through.
Code:!#/bin/sh /path/to/curl http://site.mine.com/pages/param1 >> command1 /path/to/curl http://site.mine.com/pages/param2 >> command2 /path/to/curl http://site.mine.com/pages/param3 >> command3

AUSTIN, Texas -- They are near the end of their careers now, two of the most powerful men in college athletics. Donnie Duncan, former Oklahoma athletic director, is retired. DeLoss Dodds, the venerable 72-year-old Texas AD, is soon headed that way.
During the early-to-mid 1990s, the two men were basically responsible for forming the Big 12. Forces had congealed, like they have again now, to force major college football-playing schools to decide where they wanted to play.
The Big 12's future hangs in the balance as Texas decides what to do. (US Presswire) |
Texas and Texas A&M had an offer on the table to join the Pac-10. If they had gone, the Big 12 most likely never would have happened.
"As athletic director at Oklahoma, those were precarious days," Duncan said. "The Pac-10 was not an option for us ... DeLoss wanted the Big 12 to happen very badly. There were others who very badly wanted to go to the Pac-10. Not only did he want it, whatever political environment he was working in, he had to say he was committed to it."
The Big 12 worked because Duncan and Dodds wanted it to work. When they took the idea of a new conference to New York to price it with rights holders and advertisers, it turned out to be a heck of a buy. The unification of Nebraska, Texas and Oklahoma was attractive to networks. Chevy could sell a heck of a lot of pickups in the middle of the country. Liberty Media and ESPN hopped on board with a combined $100 million package to televise the Big 12.
It was no secret that the new conference was a shotgun marriage, joining the old Big Eight with four Texas programs. The cultural differences were significant. Texas vs. Midwest. There were academic hurdles that Texas wouldn't bend on because of its scholastic reputation.
A decade and a half later, the same uncertain forces are at work. Big Ten expansion could set in motion dominoes that could alter or break up conferences. Once again, Texas and Oklahoma could be main players. If the Big Ten expansion is big enough and broad enough, Texas has another tough decision to make. The offer probably wouldn't be from the Pac-10, but from the SEC.
If the Big Ten goes to 16 teams, the SEC would at least be threatened in the marketplace. In such a case, would SEC commissioner Mike Slive's first call be to Texas?
"The Big 12 is good for us," Dodds said recently. "That's not saying there are other things that don't work. I like continuity. I like stability. The further you get out on a limb on these kinds of conversations, those aren't good things for stability and continuity."
There's just enough hedge in those statements to make you believe anything is possible. Stability and continuity are rare commodities in these uncertain times. Big Ten expansion talks have accelerated to the point where we might know the league's plans by June. Missouri and Colorado already have been mentioned -- Missouri to the Big Ten, Colorado possibly to the Pac-10. Notre Dame is seemingly in play. If the Big Ten really strafes the landscape, the effects could be felt all the way here.
"I don't think a team is leaving," Dodds said of the Big 12. "I think [the conference can survive the hit], but I don't think anybody is leaving."
However, backed into a financial corner, it isn't much of a stretch to imagine the country's richest athletic department moving to the country's second-richest conference.
The Big Ten leads the pack, producing approximately $22 million per school each year. The SEC is second at $17 million. The Big 12 is in third place, paying members $7-12 million per year. Big 12 revenues are spread unevenly, benefitting those schools with more national television appearances.

The new deal with ESPN and CBS allows SEC schools to control their archival rights (old games, coaches' shows, etc.). That's a potentially lucrative revenue stream going forward. While it might be a stretch to mate Texas with the SEC at the moment, it is significant that the "Longhorn Channel" is still a possibility.
The UT-centric channel would be available in-state to televise minor sports, campus activities, basketball and possibly some football games. IMG College, which oversees the school's trademark licensing, marketing and multimedia rights, thought enough of the idea to enter into distribution negotiations with major cable carriers.
"We're working on a channel, 'network' is not a good word," Dodds said. "Texas ought to have our top games on a bigger entity [but] we need to keep some football and basketball and baseball and women's basketball and have our own state-of-Texas deal."
Would Oklahoma follow Texas? Maybe the only way to trump the Big Ten's power play is somehow lure Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas A&M to the SEC. Blood rivals on the field, Texas and OU can't get along without each other, really. In a quiet moment in his office, Dodds admitted to proudly showing current Oklahoma AD Joe Castiglione around the campus each time he visits.
The Texas-Oklahoma River Shootout is a hate fest for fans but a decades-old money-maker for both schools. The city of Dallas, to keep the game in the Cotton Bowl, spent $90 million in improvements on the old stadium in Fair Park just to keep the game there.
Along with Notre Dame, Texas is the only other schools that makes complete expansion sense -- to any conference. If Texas leaves the Big 12, Oklahoma would have to make a decision to leave as well or make a go of it in a severely altered Big 12. Wedged in the middle of everything is the Big 12 TV contract that puts the conference in a kind of purgatory. Its deal with Fox expires in two years. But a more lucrative deal with ABC/ESPN still has five years to run.
"What was viewed as a benefit at the time [when they were signed]," Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe said of the latest contracts, "is probably more of a detriment ... We don't have the same numbers of homes as the Big Ten and the SEC."
No one does. The Big 12 stance seems to be that geographic relationships work. Get much outside your natural region and there are concerns.
"I've said that to some people at Texas," said Duncan, who still works as director of the Big 12 championship game. "How much better does Texas have it, when you get the recipe right? You better be conscious of experimenting with that recipe."
What this latest round of expansion comes down to is dividing 50 percent of the nation's college sports-viewing population. The Big Ten (with approximately 26 percent of the population in its eight-state region) and SEC (23 percent) already have sewed up the other 50 percent.
The Pac-10 has its own concerns. Does it work to add a championship game with the current membership? Does it go get Utah and Colorado and have more mouths to feed? The Mountain West, so close to automatic BCS qualification, has to stay viable. If the Big East loses even one team it could lose its automatic BCS qualifier status. Dodds and other administrators have dug to the bottom of the current upheaval. They say as few as nine athletics department are able to produce enough profit to give back to the university. You can figure out the fortunate few -- Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Michigan, among others.
The rest of the country's major college athletic departments are upside down in debt. When the choice is survival or staying in the same conference, the choice is easy: Survival wins every time.
"This year we've given $6 million plus to the university," Dodds said. "In this economy, if a school is doing it [borrowing money] for financial survival what do they care? There are a lot of schools looking for relief. If they can get relief by going to another conference, they're going to get it."

Rick Ross - No Games
Artist: Rick Ross
Featuring: Future
Producer: J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League
Album: Mastermind
Avg Rating: 2.2 ( 15 total votes )
Like many emcees, Rick Ross occasionally refers to his business as the rap game. In the Maybach Music Group capo's case, however, that expression is a bit misleading; as he emphasizes on the freshly-released lead single off his fifth full-length, his attitude toward his hustle is as serious as a heart attack. Premiered yesterday evening on Funk Flex's Hot 97 program, No Games finds Rozay talking tough to fakes and phonies over an aggressive beat by frequent collaborators J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League. Future provides a bellowed hook. Mastermind has yet to receive a title or a drop date, but we'll keep you posted on the project as further details emerge.

WD My Passport vs "For Mac" version - is the Mac version necessary?
Hey everybody!
So, I'd like to get this very popular drive: http://www.amazon.com/Passport-Porta...y+passport+2tb But technically these are for Windows, and they make a Mac version here: http://www.amazon.com/Passport-Porta...y+passport+2tb I'd rather get the black version, and I read some of the reviews stating that you can just reformat the Windows version and it will work fine for Mac. While I'm sure I could get it to mount, would there be any possible performance issues by doing this? In other words, is there any reason to buy the Mac version, or are they identical, but just come formatted differently? Thanks! |

I just bought and reformatted the "PC" version a few days ago. No issues whatsoever once you reformat for Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
I found this at the bottom of the Amazon link you posted: Compatibility Formatted NTFS for Windows® XP, Windows Vista,® or Windows 7 Requires reformatting for Mac OS® X Leopard® or Snow Leopard, or Lion

I kinda have the same issue.
I`m looking for an external HDD that should work on both my PC and my MBA. The HDD has to be formated in NTFS... I understood there are some applications you can buy in order to read/write NTFS on OSX. Any details/suggestions? thanks! |

You could also format the external in exFAT and that can be read/write natively in OS X and Windows. You will see that format option in Disk Utility. |

If not, and you have a Firewire 800 port, then you'll get better performance with a Firewire drive rather than USB. E.g. http://wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=420 ...however, Firewire is on the way out and you might not find one at the physical size and capacity you want, and will probably pay a bit of a premium. Plus, if you have an Air or a vanilla MacBook its USB or nothing. I've had one of these in the past: http://www.verbatim.com/prod/hard-dr...sb-30-for-mac/ ...which was great because it fas FW800 [i[and[/i] USB3, but it was a bit overpriced and I don't think they do them bigger than 500GB. |

The drives on the Studio version are removable (unlike USB-only ones where WD likes to use that one-piece design).
This makes going with the 2TB version a pretty future-proof option - a person could always migrate that drive to a USB 3 or Thunderbolt enclosure in the future... |

Dec 17, 2012, 02:39 PM | #10 |
That's probably only because of a different case - WD don't make them self serviceable etc. Only difference between the two, beside the difference in case, is that the drive is formatted for each particular platform. Just get the cheaper one and reformat when you have it!

Thanks for all the advice. I'm only using this drive for extra storage/backups, so speed isn't really the focus, but I definitely want a USB 3.0 drive. I'm mostly concerned with reliability, and I'm really drawn to the My Passport series because of the WD Nomad case they make:
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=600 I'm a very big fan of excessive protection when it comes to HDDs, so I'd plan on leaving in that case essentially all the time. The other option I'm considering is going with the 1TB LaCie Rugged Mini (3.0). I'm planning on getting the Rugged 3.0/Thunderbolt SSD as a speed drive, and it would be nice to 2 Rugged's, as I really like those drives...they essentially have cases built in. But that would mean I lose a whole terabyte of storage from the WD My Passport. Anyone have any experience with the WD My Passport vs. LaCie Rugged Mini? I'd assume the LaCie has a bit of an advantage in terms of performance. |

It seems the only difference is the fact that its sliver and comes preformatted for mac. I JUST(like yesterday) bought the black 2TB windows one. I wish I would have got the silver one. They didn't have it at the store though.

There's an important difference between these WD drives apart from formatting and colour, which theluggage alluded to - My Passport for Mac works with USB 2 and 3; My Passport Studio works with FireWire 800 and USB 2.
So if you want to use USB 3 you need the silver Mac version. |

I got this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822236187 and it partitioned and formatted just fine for the Mac for use with Time Machine.
The "for Mac" designation looks to be a money grab as they anticipate many people won't know it's the same device just formatted differently. Interesting, if you use the Product Selector on www.wdc.com and select Mac and PC in the compatibility list it returns NO RESULTS. The WDC site has no ability to directly compare the devices. Sadly, Newegg's comparison tool seems to choke on comparing the standard drive and the "For Mac" drive. I think you'll find the devices identical with the exception of the formatting. This is the comparison I'm trying to make

Something else I just thought of... Maybe the "for mac" thing means their software that comes with it works for mac. I don't use it anyway but just a thought.

Hey, does anyone know the cache/buffer size for the 2TB My Passport for Mac HDD? I can't seem to find that anywhere. I also notice that they never really say the RPM speed either, though I'm sure it's 5400 RPM. It's really frustrating how they tend to not list any tech specs that aren't flattering...

The actual HDD are the same, they are just formatted differently. A lot of external drives actually come formatted FAT32 by default so that there is not a problem with it being "picked up" by Windows or OS X.
Even in NTFS OS X can read it but it can't write to it without a 3rd party software. Whether you buy a "for Mac" drive or one not marked for Mac, OS X will still initially see the drive then you can open Disk Utility and format the drive to HFS then be able to read and write. Or like mentioned before you can install 3rd party software and format the drive to NTFS is you would be using this drive in between OS X and Windows machines.

Ya, I ended up going with the WD My Passport for Mac, because the price on Amazon was the same, and I like the silver look. But any of them should work for both Mac and Windows if you format them correctly, assuming your machine has the necessary ports.

I got the WD My Passport today as a gift, and it works great right out of the box. It already backed up and saved my computer and is set up with time machine.

But does it work with your Mac USB 3 port at USB 3 speeds?

Further Signs of Stronger Job MarketMarch 7 The Conference Board Employment Trends Index (ETI) increased in February for the fifth consecutive month, The Conference Board reported today. The report came on the heels of encouraging reports last week that the economy created 192,000 jobs last month and the unemployment rate declined to 8.9% The ETI hit 101.7 in February, up from a revised January figure of 100.1. The Index is up more than 8% from one year ago, according to The Conference Board. The ETI aggregates eight labor-market indicators, each of which has proven accurate in its own area. Seven of the eight components improved in February. "In the past half year, the economy has been adding, on average, about 110,000 jobs per month," says Gad Levanon, associate director, macroeconomic research at The Conference Board. "The strong growth in the Employment Trends Index suggests that the pickup in jobs may accelerate in the next couple of quarters. However, with a shrinking government, a stagnant construction sector, and a manufacturing recovery that has only a small impact on overall employment, overall job growth will still be modest." Read the complete Employment Trends Index news release. |

[JURIST] The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] sought to prohibit government censorship of prisoners' testimony about alleged torture and abuse at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive] in a motion [text, PDF] filed Friday in military commission proceedings against five "high value detainees" [JURIST news archive] accused of involvement in the 9/11 attacks [JURIST news archive]. The motion says observers at the proceedings watch on a closed-circuit video monitor with a 20-second delay, allowing officials to cut the feed when it appears a defendant is discussing the conditions of their detention. In the motion, the ACLU requests that:
(1) in all future proceedings, the government not be permitted to exclude trial observers from hearing those portions of proceedings in which the defendants relate their allegations of abuse in U.S. custody; and (2) with respect to all prior proceedings, this Military Commission order the release of unredacted transcripts that include those portions in which the audio was turned off.
[JURIST] The Kenyan government on Friday published a bill calling for a constitutional amendment allowing the replacement of the controversial Electoral Commission of Kenya [official website] which oversaw the re-election of President Mwai Kibaki [official profile] in December 2007, leading to massive demonstrations and more than 1,000 deaths. Justice Minister Martha Karua said the country's parliament could pass the bill within a week [AFP report], laying the groundwork for an interim body of five people to replace the current 22-member commission. The commission has called the claim unconstitutional [Afrik.com report] and is seeking a court order to block such a change. Some 600 employees of the commission who stand to lose their jobs are protesting [Standard report] the move, blaming the 22 commissioners and other higher-ranking officials for problems in the agency.Kenyan protesters alleged fraud and vote-rigging [JURIST report] after Kibaki prevailed despite polls that placed rival candidate Raila Odinga in the lead. In March, Kibaki established a panel [JURIST report] to investigate the violence that followed the election. Human Rights Watch concluded the violence was planned carefully [JURIST report] by leaders on both sides. That commission urged the creation [JURIST report] of an international tribunal to try suspected perpetrators of the violence.
[JURIST] Russian President Dmitry Medvedev [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] Friday signed into law legislation authorizing the creation of a DNA database for convicted criminals, according to reports. Under the law, passed by the State Duma [Kommersant report] on November 19 and approved by the Council of Federation on November 26, authorities are allowed to collect and retain DNA [AP report] from prisoners convicted of serious violent crimes, including murder and rape. The new legislation is expected to draw opposition from rights groups and advocates, who claim that the database is an invasion of privacy.A number of other countries have instituted similar criminal DNA databases. In April, the US Department of Justice announced that it would begin collecting DNA samples [JURIST report] from every person arrested under federal laws. The UK National DNA Database [Home Office backgrounder] collects and retains DNA information from criminal suspects upon their arrest. The European Court of Human Rights unanimously ruled Thursday that the British practice of keeping the fingerprints and DNA profiles of people arrested but not convicted of crimes was against privacy rights [JURIST report] and should not continue. In 2005, the government of Sweden proposed a law [JURIST report] that would establish a program similar to the UK scheme, authorizing the collection of DNA from criminal suspects, but under the Swedish scheme samples are destroyed upon acquittal.
[JURIST] The US Department of Justice (DOJ) [official website] has indicted five Blackwater USA [corporate website; JURIST news archive] guards involved in the September 2007 killings of 17 Iraqi civilians [JURIST report], according to reports. The Associated Press reported that sealed indictments [AP report] were issued Thursday, and will remain sealed until at least Monday. While the indictments had been expected to contain charges under the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act (MEJA) [text], the New York Times says the five indicted Blackwater guards will be charged [NYT report] under the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 [LOC backgrounder], which requires a minimum 30-year sentence for the use of a machine gun in connection with a crime. If the guards are indicted under the MEJA, it would mark the first time that State Department contractors were prosecuted under the law, which allows criminal charges to be filed against contractors working for the Department of Defense.The Blackwater incident caused domestic outrage in Iraq and has prompted legal controversy in the US. In November, the New York Times and the Washington Post [reports] reported that an Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) investigation into the incident concluded that the shootings were unjustified [JURIST report], and last month Bush administration officials announced that Iraq security contractors would be losing immunity from Iraqi law under the recently approved [JURIST reports] US Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with Iraq. Human Rights First [advocacy website] issued a report [text, PDF] in January asserting that existing federal law is sufficient to prosecute private contractors using excessive violence in their overseas capacities, and that the US government is to blame for failing to "develop a clear policy with respect to the accountability of private contractors for crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan." The report says that the MEJA could be extended to State Department contractors, but that the US has failed to do so.
[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit [official website] on Friday ruled [opinion, PDF; ACLU press release] that an Egyptian Christian who could face torture in Egypt [JURIST news archive] may challenge his deportation from the United States. Sameh Khouzam [ACLU materials; JURIST news archive] fled to the US in 1998 allegedly to escape religious persecution. American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) [advocacy website] lawyers representing Khouzam argued [JURIST report] before the US District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania [official website] that the US government was not abiding by its obligations under the UN Convention Against Torture [text] by relying on assurances from the Egyptian government that Khouzam would not be tortured if he were returned to authorities in Egypt [JURIST news archive]. In upholding the district court's decision [opinion, PDF; JURIST report] to block Khouzam's deportation, Judge Marjorie Rendell wrote:
The alien must have an opportunity to present, before a neutral and impartial decisionmaker, evidence and arguments challenging the reliability of diplomatic assurances proffered by the Government, and the Governments compliance with the relevant regulations. The alien must also be afforded an individualized determination of the matter based on a record disclosed to the alien.

BOSTON, Feb. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the latest research from Strategy Analytics, global smartwatch shipments reached a record 2 million units in 2013. Android captured 61 percent share of all smartwatches shipped worldwide and it is commanding an early lead over rivals.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130207/NE56457LOGO-b )
Matt Wilkins, Director at Strategy Analytics, said, "Global smartwatch shipments reached a record 1.9 million units in 2013. It is very early days, of course, but the smartwatch market is starting to take shape. We estimate less than 1 percent of all smartphones shipped worldwide were bundled with smartwatches in 2013, so there remains huge scope for smartwatch growth in the future."
Neil Mawston, Executive Director at Strategy Analytics, added, "Android shipped a record 1.2 million smartwatches worldwide for 61 percent marketshare in 2013. Android shipped more smartwatches than the rest of the entire market combined. Android's growth has been driven mostly by Samsung's Galaxy Gear model, which is being promoted heavily in major countries such as the US, UK and South Korea."
Woody Oh, Senior Analyst at Strategy Analytics, added, "Android currently has several challengers in the smartwatch space, like Firefox and Pebble OS, but none of them are a major threat at this stage because of their relatively limited ecosystems and modest retail presence. Android's main risk to its smartwatch dominance in the future will come from Apple iOS, Microsoft, and perhaps Tizen or COS. These four brands have the potential scale or marketing power to offer a credible alternative to Google's popular platform."

Leadership is the difference maker and the deal breaker. It's how we grow organizations. It's how we impact lives. But, as you also know, leadership cannot be an idea we simply talk about; leadership is the action we must live out.
As a John Maxwell Certified Coach, Teacher and Speaker, I can offer you workshops, seminars, keynote speaking, and coaching, aiding your personal and professional growth through study and practical application of John's proven leadership methods. Working together, I will move you and/or your team or organization in the desired direction to reach your goals.
My goal-oriented outlook on life and my passion for helping others reach their goals led me to join the John Maxwell Team. Prior to joining the team, I spent 20 years in Corporate America as an Environmental Analyst. I hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology from Taylor University in Indiana. In addition, I am also a wife and mother. It is not always easy juggling the list of daily responsibilities effectively.
This is why you must have a structured and practical plan in place to avoid becoming overwhelmed and over stressed. I have personally used these tools to enhance my own productivity, development and decision-making skills to create a more balanced lifestyle. I have been studying and personally implementing the philosophies behind personal development and the role emotions and vision play in leadership for the last ten years.

John S. Wilkins
AbstractOver the past few years, blogging ('web logging') has become a major social movement, and as such includes blogs by scientists about science. Blogs are highly idiosyncratic, personal and ephemeral means of public expression, and yet they contribute to the current practice and reputation of science as much as, if not more than, any popular scientific work or visual presentation. It is important, therefore, to understand this phenomenon.

This sounds a bit crazy, but ya never know! According to the Daily Telegraph, DigiTimes Research analyst Mingchi Kuo has said that Apple is planning to come out with a more compact version of the iPad in the first quarter of 2011. Kuo says that the iPad mini will have a screen somewhere between 5in and 7in long, compared to the iPads 9.7in screen. Kuo also says that the screen will cost less than $400, and would marketed as a highly portable reading device. Kuo says that he is making these somewhat surprising predictions based on information that has been passed on to him by his sources in the component manufacturing industry. Anything is possible I guess, but with iBooks just having been announced for iPhone OS 4, surely that means that Apple considers the iPhone and iPod touch to be their highly portable reading devices?

INDIANAPOLIS -- The youth pastor of an Indianapolis church and his pregnant wife were among the three who died in Saturday's bus crash, a church leader said.
Youth pastor Chad Phelps and his wife, Courtney Phelps, were expecting their second child next month, Colonial Hills Baptist Church deacon Jeff Leffew said at a news conference Sunday. Chad Phelps is the son of the church's main pastor, Charles Phelps.
Tonya Weindorf, a mother of five who was a chaperone on the trip to the northern Michigan youth camp, also died, Leffew said.
"Our church grieves now. We grieve the fact that they're not here now. We miss them," Leffew said.
Dozens were injured in the crash, which happened Saturday afternoon on an Interstate 465 exit ramp. Bus driver Dennis Mauer, 68, told authorities that the brakes failed before the vehicle struck a raised concrete median and flipped on its side, according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department report.
The toddler who was injured was Chad and Courtney Phelps' son, Leffew said. The church's website says the son's name is Chase and he is almost 2. IU Health spokeswoman Sally Winter said Sunday that the toddler had been released from the hospital.
The investigation into the crash is ongoing, authorities said. The bus was nearly finished with a 365-mile journey, overturning just a mile from the church, where parents were waiting to pick up their children after a weeklong camp filled with prayer, zip lines and basketball.
Leffew, 44, of Fishers, had sent four daughters to Camp CoBeAc, near Prudenville, Mich. Only one daughter was on the bus that pulled into the parking lot, and he raced to the crash site in northern Indianapolis. What he found was a surreal scene, with clothing and other items strewn about and windows missing from the bus.
"You're just praying that it's not as bad as it looks," he said. His daughters escaped with just bumps and bruises.
Indianapolis Public Safety Director Troy Riggs called the crash a "great tragedy."
"They were not that far from home. That only adds to the tragedy," Riggs said at the crash scene. He said there was no indication that the driver had a medical emergency.
Witnesses described a horrifying scene.
Duane Lloyd told WTHR that he heard a loud noise behind him as he was traveling near the intersection and saw the crash around 4:15 p.m. -- about the time Chad Phelps had tweeted that the group would arrive at the church.

Personal testaments from FTMs and contributions from a host of others place the subject of transsexualism into a historical, medical,psychological and cultural context. Captivating photographs guide the reader from the FTMs female personae, through surgical operations, to portraits of the men whose self and public identities are finally revealed as one. Dean Kotula has worked as a documentary photographer for twenty years. Dean changed his sex from female to male under the scrutinizing eyes of 2,000 predominantly male shipyard workers while working as a machinist. The ensuing ordeal prompted him to create this book A native Minnesotan, Dean now resides in Massachusetts where he co-owns an antique business. |

So it's today, who's gonna win? Any predictions?
I don't think I remember a past Super Bowl I had less enthusiasm for than this one, it's like the equivalent of milk toast!
The Colts will probably win and I will continue to HATE Peyton Manning.
close game so far , but colts willl pull it out
Personally, I'm glad NO won. I'm so sick of the Mannings.
'Course, I'm a Pats fan so I might have a bit of a grudge against Payton.
The kicker for the colts, Pat Macafee went to my school. I played tournament baseball with him haha. Would have been nice to see him win a Superbowl so young.
Congrats to Drew and Wilmer, I wish it could have been with the Chargers but it was just not meant to be, anyway congrats to the Saints and a well played football game!!!!!
NO NOT CHARGERS COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it when the cowboys took the eagles out of the playoffs.
Why do you bring back dead posts so much man its kinda annoying to people...
