hot conductors to the breaker and the breaker
pigtail to the neutral bus. There will be no
connection to the breaker neutral, so just ignore
The way the breaker works is via "vector
addition." It sums the current of the load and uses
that as a reference as the current leaves one leg
of the breaker. In theory, the current coming back
should be the same. If it is not, the breaker
opens. The vector addition will not work if the
pigtail is not connected.

Muskego - Muskego aldermen will review whether a change they made last year to the city's purchasing policy is a little too hands-off.
The new policy came under criticism at last week's Committee of the Whole meeting because aldermen have no say over how money is spent, once the Common Council approves the budget for the year.
Priorities change and sometimes spending for a large project isn't such a good idea anymore, Alderman Daniel Soltysiak said. He would rather go back to the way it was before with the Finance Committee signing off on all contracts of more than $25,000, he said. Under the changed policy, no contracts or expenditures come back to the committee or Common Council, if they are in the budget.
"That takes away too many checks and balances," Soltysiak said.
Alderman Neil Borgman agreed, saying, "We are the people who are supposed to spend the people's money."
Alderman Kert Harenda criticized the new policy for a different reason, saying that money saved on one project can be applied to another when the council might not want that to happen. He wanted more council oversight on such transfers.
Harenda also said he didn't like how the reverse could happen, also.
When the city doesn't do a project, the money gets absorbed, "And it's gone," he said.
As long as the review will take place, Borgman said he wanted to take another look at requiring going out for bids for more things.
The Committee of the Whole will meet with department heads as early as Jan. 22 to see if going back to the old policy or modifying the new one might be in order.
The policy was changed as the city sought to make the old policy more clear and to update it, Mayor Cathy Chiaverotti said after the meeting. Muskego's purchasing policy is patterned after policies in other communities including Brookfield and Elm Grove. They are among many communities that don't have large contracts and purchases come back to the council, she said.
But Soltysiak said he found many communities that continue to have the $25,000 threshold for items coming back to legislative bodies.
Aldermen agreed that the trick will be to maintain comfortable control without slowing down the flow needed to get projects and purchases done efficiently.
Soltysiak said the $25,000 threshold worked for many years until it was changed last year.
But Alderman Rob Glazier who was appointed to the council last year could see the potential for chaos in the form of budget battles that had been lost at budget time starting up anew when individual expenditure approvals are needed.
"I don't want a budget discussion every council meeting," Glazier said.

(WMC-TV) - A mother wants justice in the death of her two children, who were killed in an accident in Oxford last year.
Frances Wheat filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the man suspected of driving drunk, causing the crash that killed her kids. The lawsuit also names the man's parents.
Sarah and John Wheat died when police say John Howard Strickland, Jr. crossed the median and hit their car in late October 2012. Toxicology results showed alcohol and other illegal substances in his system.
Strickland is charged with two counts of aggravated DUI.
In the wrongful death lawsuit, Strickland's parents are also named as defendants because documents allege they entrusted their son with a vehicle knowing he had a previous DUI conviction from January 2012.
The Strickland's law firm in Jackson, Mississippi did not return Action News 5's phone calls on Friday, but in the response to the lawsuit, they denied the claims.
Strickland was recently indicted, but the case has not yet gone to trial.
Attorneys for both sides are expected to meet with a federal magistrate judge in July in federal court in Aberdeen.
John and Sarah were lacrosse players at Ole Miss. They are both buried in Lafayette County.

Eliminate withholding for some workers
"By eliminating the requirement for certain individuals to have income taxes withheld puts more hard-earned money back into the hands of hardworking families at a time when they need it the most. This also simplifies the administrative process by reducing the number of returns which the state must process as well as the burden on individuals which have to file in order to receive this money back."

Bay Leaf Wreath
- Summary
The sweet herbal scent of bay leaves is one of the season's most pleasing aromas. We first offered these exquisitely aromatic wreaths to our customers 35 years ago, and over time they have become a holiday tradition for many. Woven from boughs of California bay laurel, it's still shipped to you directly from a Northern California farm to ensure freshness. The leaves will dry naturally and can be used in cooking throughout the year. The wreath is intended for use indoors or in a sheltered outdoor location. Please select your desired delivery date below. Wreath: 15" or 22" diam. A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.
- Use & Care
- Upon receipt, cut the cable ties on the bottom of the box and carefully remove the wreath or garland. We recommend lightly misting the front of the wreath upon arrival (only once, do not repeat). Let mist air dry and hang the wreath fresh.
- Our wreaths are woven of fresh natural materials, and are intended for display indoors or in a sheltered area. The fresh bay leaves on your wreath were newly picked and will complete their drying process within 1 to 2 weeks.
- As fresh botanicals age, it is natural for their colors to fade and their leaves to curl slightly.
- If you intend to use the herbs in the wreath for cooking, we recommend hanging the wreath indoors only, avoiding exposure to insects and other pests. If you choose to hang your wreath outside, make sure that it is fully protected from the sun, wind, and rain that will quickly cause damage.
- Shedding is normal. The extra fullness of our wreaths and garland is intended to compensate for any unavoidable shedding during shipping. To minimize shedding, it is best not to move the wreath or garland once hung.

Dwarfism is short stature that results from a genetic or medical condition. Dwarfism is generally defined as an adult height of 4 feet 10 inches or less (147 centimeters). The average adult height among people with dwarfism is 4 feet (122 cm).
Treatments for most dwarfism-related conditions don't increase stature but may lessen complications.
People with dwarfism may encounter discrimination. Family support, social networks, advocacy groups and adaptive products enable most people with dwarfism to address challenges in educational, work and social settings.
More than 200 different medical conditions cause dwarfism. Therefore, dwarfism symptoms — other than short stature — vary considerably across the spectrum of disorders. In general, the disorders are divided into two broad categories:
Most people with dwarfism have disorders that cause disproportionately short stature. Usually, this means that a person has an average-size trunk and very short limbs, but some people may have a very short trunk and shortened (but disproportionately large) limbs. The other common characteristic of these disorders is that the head is disproportionately large compared with the body.
Almost all people with disproportionate dwarfism have normal intellectual capacities. Rare exceptions are usually the result of a secondary factor, such as excess fluid around the brain (hydrocephalus).
The most common cause of dwarfism is a disorder called achondroplasia, which causes disproportionately short stature. This disorder usually results in the following:
Another cause of disproportionate dwarfism is a rare disorder called spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita (SEDC). Signs may include:
Proportionate dwarfism results from medical conditions present at birth or appearing in early childhood that limit overall growth and development. Therefore, the head, trunk and limbs are all small, but they are proportionate to each other. Because these disorders affect overall growth, many of them result in poor development of one or more body systems.
Growth hormone deficiency is a relatively common cause of proportionate dwarfism. It occurs when the pituitary gland fails to produce an adequate supply of growth hormone, which is essential for regular childhood growth. Signs include:
Signs and symptoms of disproportionate dwarfism are often present at birth or in early infancy. Proportionate dwarfism may not be immediately apparent. See your child's doctor if you have any concerns about your child's growth or overall development.
Most dwarfism-related conditions are genetic disorders, but the causes of some disorders are unknown. Most occurrences of dwarfism result from a random genetic mutation in either the father's sperm or the mother's egg rather than being in either parent's complete genetic makeup.
About 80 percent of people with achondroplasia are born to parents of average height. A person with achondroplasia and with two average-size parents received one mutated copy of the gene associated with the disorder and one normal copy of the gene. A person with the disorder may pass along either a mutated or normal copy to his or her own children.
Turner syndrome occurs because of a random deletion or severe alteration of an X chromosome either in the sperm or egg. The X chromosome is one of two chromosomes that determine the sex of a person. A female inherits an X chromosome from each parent, and a male inherits a Y chromosome from his father and an X chromosome from his mother. A girl with Turner syndrome has only one fully functioning copy of the female sex chromosome rather than two.
The cause of growth hormone deficiency can sometimes be traced to a genetic mutation or injury, but for most people with the disorder, no cause can be identified.
Other causes of dwarfism include deficiencies in other hormones and poor nutrition.
Complications of dwarfism-related disorders can vary greatly, but some complications are common to a number of conditions.
The characteristic features of the skull, spine and limbs shared by most forms of disproportionate dwarfism result in some common problems:
With proportionate dwarfism, problems in growth and development often result in complications with poorly developed organs. For example, heart problems often present in Turner syndrome can have a significant effect on a child's general health. An absence of sexual maturation associated with growth hormone deficiency or Turner syndrome affects not only physical development but also social functioning.
Women with disproportionate dwarfism may develop respiratory problems during pregnancy. A cesarean delivery is almost always necessary because the size and shape of the pelvis doesn't allow for successful vaginal delivery.
Most people with dwarfism prefer not to be labeled by a condition. However, some people may refer to themselves as dwarfs or little people. The word "midget" is generally considered a derogatory term.
People of average height may have misconceptions about people with dwarfism. Some wrongly believe that all people with dwarfism have limited intellectual abilities or personality disorders. Judging maturity by height rather than age, some people may treat people with dwarfism as children.
There's also a long history of people with dwarfism being treated as spectacles for entertainment. And the portrayal of people with dwarfism in modern movies often resorts to stereotypes.
Children with dwarfism are particularly vulnerable to teasing and ridicule from classmates. Because dwarfism is relatively uncommon, children may feel isolated from their peers.
How you learn whether your child has dwarfism will depend on the degree to which it affects his or her development. Disproportionate dwarfism is usually apparent at birth or early in infancy. Proportionate dwarfism may not be diagnosed until later in childhood or adolescence if your child isn't growing at an expected rate.
It's important to take your child to all regularly scheduled well-baby visits and annual appointments throughout childhood. These visits are an opportunity for your child's doctor to track growth, note delays in expected growth and identify other problems in physical development.
Questions your child's doctor might ask you may include the following:
If your family doctor or pediatrician believes that your child exhibits signs of dwarfism, you may want to discuss the following questions:
Your pediatrician will likely examine a number of factors in order to assess your child's growth and determine whether he or she has a dwarfism-related disorder. Diagnostic tests may include the following:
A number of disorders causing dwarfism can cause a variety of developmental problems and medical complications. Therefore, several specialists may be involved in screening for specific conditions, making diagnoses, recommending treatments and providing care. This team may evolve as your child's needs change, and your family doctor or pediatrician can coordinate the care. Specialists in your care team may include the following professionals:
Most dwarfism treatments don't increase stature but may alleviate problems caused by complications.
Surgical procedures that may correct problems with bones in people with disproportionate dwarfism include:
Some people with dwarfism elect to undergo limb-lengthening surgery. With this procedure, the surgeon divides a long bone into two or more sections, separates the sections slightly and braces the bone and limb with external metal "scaffolding." Pins and screws on this frame are periodically adjusted to keep tension between the sections, enabling the bone to grow back together gradually into a complete but longer bone.
This procedure is controversial for many people with dwarfism because, as with all surgeries, there are risks, and because the "correction" in stature may imply there's something wrong with being short.
Growth hormone deficiency is treated with injections of a synthetic version of the hormone. In most cases, children receive daily injections for several years until they reach a maximum adult height — often within the average adult range for their family. Treatment may continue throughout adolescence and early adulthood to ensure adult maturation, such as appropriate gain in muscle or fat. The treatment may be supplemented with other related hormones if they are also deficient.
Treatment for girls with Turner syndrome also requires estrogen and related hormone therapy in order for them to begin puberty and achieve adult sexual development. Estrogen replacement therapy usually continues throughout life until a woman reaches the average age of menopause.
Talk with your pediatrician or a specialist about at-home care. Issues particularly critical for children with disproportionate dwarfism include the following:
If your child has dwarfism, you can take a number of steps to help him or her cope with challenges and function independently:

Howie The Hawk: 'You Can't Stay Out Of These Things'
Call him Howie "The Hawk" Dean . . .
Last evening we detailed Cenk Uygur's hypocrisy in supporting military action in Libya. This morning brings news of another liberal nouveau-hawk: Howard Dean. The man who was a scream away from winning the 2004 Dem presidential nomination based on his opposition to the Iraq war suddenly supports a muscular foreign policy. On Morning Joe, Dean told Joe Klein (who is surprisingly skeptical about President Obama's Libya policy):
"I don't think you stay out of these things. You can't if you're the most powerful country in the world . . . You have to take chances."
View video after the jump.
Watch the video and consider how having a Dem in the White House has apparently turned Howard from dove to hawk.
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Howard Dean, what's your response to the president's actions in Libya?
HOWARD DEAN: I think he's done the right thing. It's easy to criticize in hindsight.
And later, clashing with Klein.
DEAN: When somebody comes in and has a revolution you don't get to say, as the United States of America, when they have their elections.
JOE KLEIN: All the more reason for us to stay out of them.
DEAN: I don't think you stay out of these things. You can't if you're the most powerful country in the world . . . You have to take chances.
KLEIN: That's not what you were saying in 2003!
DEAN: That's because we were lied to about what we were doing . . . we were lied to about the WMD.
KLEIN: We had the same situation as we do now, which is insufficent information.

If Bush bypassed Congress

The word "impeachment" would be repeatedly pounded in the liberal MSM like a New Orleans jazz funeral drum.

Klein is hedging
Submitted by Ashrak on Wed, 03/23/2011 - 10:05am.
because embarrassment is setting in. We do not have the same thing now, as there is no Joint Resolution out of Congress prior to military action. Dean can parrot the "lied to" all he wants, he cannot remove the Congressional record itself.
And as for Klein, the very fact that we had incomplete information after a dozen years WAS THE PROBLEM regarding Iraq in 2003. Had he actually paid attention all along, had he actually read, at least, UN resolution 687 all the way through 1441, he would know that.
This is not to tout U.N. approval or authorization, it is to show that even the U.N was forced to admit, over and over again, that Saddam had not complied with 687. Psssssst Klein, that means he had not supplied the information and the actions required of him in exchange for leaving him in power.
So as it pertains to information lacking, Saddam was responsible for that in 2003 regarding Iraq and OBAMA is responsible for it regarding 2011. Same thing? Hardly.

Germany pulled out of NATO this am, the Brits are going hawkish (but are running low on ammo, hmmm, who's going to buy them more?), French are doing their usual (hunting for the white flag), and we are, as always, carrying the weight and the financial burden.
Obama is getting slammed from the left and the right. My bet is he says "nevermind, K-Bye" on Friday at the very latest. He's too big of a wimp to take more than three days of criticism, much less years of it.

Some other damn liars:
Again my favorite is William Cohen who as Sec of defense UNDER BILLYBOY, would kind of have a clue maybe????
There's no question that Saddam Hussein is a threat... Yes, he has chemical and biological weapons. He's had those for a long time. But the United States right now is on a very much different defensive posture than we were before September 11th of 2001... He is, as far as we know, actively pursuing nuclear capabilities, though he doesn't have nuclear warheads yet. If he were to acquire nuclear weapons, I think our friends in the region would face greatly increased risks as would we." -- Wesley Clark on September 26, 2002
"What is at stake is how to answer the potential threat Iraq represents with the risk of proliferation of WMD. Baghdad's regime did use such weapons in the past. Today, a number of evidences may lead to think that, over the past four years, in the absence of international inspectors, this country has continued armament programs." -- Jacques Chirac, October 16, 2002
"The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow." -- Bill Clinton in 1998
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members, though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September 11, 2001. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons. Should he succeed in that endeavor, he could alter the political and security landscape of the Middle East, which as we know all too well affects American security." -- Hillary Clinton, October 10, 2002
"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out." -- Clinton's Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003

With all that was going on without Libya, how strong of a fight did he (along with Adm Mullens) put up for, if nothing else, a vote in Congress? And that's not to mention little things like getting a clarification on exactly what the mission was, who was going to be in command after the initial part of the operation, whether Gadhaffi was a target or not, what the desire end state was etc.
Andd if he didn't get the answers he needed why didn't he, along with Adm Mullen, resign?
A bad performance all the way around.

Now, if anyone thinks that Al Qaeda makes an announcement, or statement in support of anything, without being directly involved in the conflict, I have this bridge.....
Intell reports have mentioned this and it is believed by many in the intell community that Al Qaeda is behind most of the "rebel" uprisings in the ME. Notice, those ME countries that observe Sharia law did not incur the wrath of rebellion. In Iran, the Persians simply kill the protesters, and hang some others. Iran is backing Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda is backing rebels. What needs to happen is we need get out of the ME, and if they raise their hands against Israel, we simply wipe them off the map. All at once, or one at a time.

Dean's not being honest with us, or even himself. He, like so many other people who support Obama in this, keep calling this a revolution, but it is not, it is a civil war.. Th 'rebels' aren't fighting for independence from the Libyan government, like what occurs in a revolution, they're fighting for CONTROL of that government. They're fighting a civil war! Let's call these people what they truly are: insurrectionists. Then, and only then, can we have an informed, meaningful debate on how we should respond.

Invalid comparisons
Submitted by CobraMan on Wed, 03/23/2011 - 1:39pm.
Also, the Obama supporters continually compare Libya to th Balkan conflicts as if they are similar. But,as we all know, they are not. Bosnia, Kosovo, ect were all true revolutions. They all wanted independence from Serb dominated Czechoslovakia, which they received, thanks to our help. Libya is not like that at all. Once again, it is a battle over who will be in charge. No one is fighting for independence, just for control.
So, please, Democrats, be honest and forthright with us (and yourselves) about what is going on, ok? We deserve an honest, open public debate about what is occurring and what we should be doing about it. Anything less is deceptive. You claim that Bush lied us into war? Well, so did the Obama administration.
Oh, and by the way, that dream of a democratic Libya is nothing more than a pipe dream. There are already several "true" Libyan governments now, and NONE of them were democratically elected. They have all been imposed upon their relevant populations. Where were the elections for an interim government? Where was the chance for people to choose those who will lead the transformation into a democratically elected government, like what happened in both Iraq and Afghanistan? It hasn't happen, and it probably never will. One dictatorship has now been replaced by several, all fighting for control of the country. Is that the "reform" Obama was hoping for? Is this what we're fighting for?
Contrary to the claims of Obama and his supporters, this isn't another Balkan's war, this is another Somalia.

Officers with the Lexington County Multi-Agency Narcotics Enforcement Team (NET) seized about 300 grams of cocaine with a street value of about $30,000 and $25,028 in cash Tuesday.
Lexington County Sheriff James R. Metts said NET officers arrested Rashawn Stafford Gatson, 34, and Tyvona Latrice Toland, 27, both of Swansea, on charges of trafficking in cocaine, possessing crack cocaine, possessing a weapon during the commission of a violent crime and possessing a firearm that had been reported stolen.
Gatson and Toland each were being held on Wednesday at the Lexington County Detention Center on bail totaling $200,000, Metts said.
NET officers went to Gatson's home at 505 Swansea Road after 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday and executed a search warrant, Metts said. Toland lives with Gatson, who is Toland's boyfriend.
After they executed the search warrant, officers seized cocaine, crack cocaine, firearms, ammunition, surveillance cameras for a security system, one computer that monitored surveillance cameras, digital scales, plastic bags that were used to package drugs for sale and one Rite Count money-counting machine, Metts said.
Eight firearms were seized including one Fire Storm 9-mm handgun, one 140 Pro Taurus .40-caliber handgun, one Ruger .38-caliber handgun, one Glock .357-caliber handgun, one New England 12-gauge shotgun, one Savage 30-06 bolt-action rifle, one Mossberg semi-automatic .22-caliber rifle and one Marlin 30-30 lever-action rifle.
Lexington County Sheriff's Department deputies initially went to Gatson's home on Tuesday afternoon in order to assist Lexington County Animal Services officers in executing a search warrant in connection with an investigation that Animal Services officers were conducting concerning the condition and treatment of dogs that Gatson owns, Metts said.
After Animal Services officers executed their search warrant at Gatson's home, the officers and deputies saw a small digital scale on a table that contained a white powder that appeared to be cocaine. Deputies then requested assistance from NET officers to investigate illegal drugs at the home.
NET officers obtained and executed a separate search warrant for Gatson's home in order to investigate Gatson's involvement in dealing illegal drugs, Metts said.
NET officers seized cocaine and crack cocaine at Gatson's home after they executed the search warrant.
Metts asked anyone with information about illegal drug activity in Lexington County to call the Lexington County Sheriff's Department at (803) 785-8230 or CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC. Citizens also can provide information anonymously by accessing the Crime Tip link on the Sheriff's Department web site (www.lexingtonsheriff.com).

Students from the Panama City Advanced School are seeing firsthand how whales eat, how they move, and just how big one can get.
"I decided to pick whales because you find them in every ocean in the world, they're very diverse, and also they're approachable," said Professor Cristina Rios at the FSU-PC.
Professor Cristina Rios teaches ESOL courses which stands for English Speakers of Other Languages. Her final project for her students is Whale Day.
"I think that sometimes we forget and we get so carried away with assessment that we never have fun and I think if we're gonna motivate the children and engage them, we need to set the example," said Rios. "And Whale Day is the perfect way."
Professor Rios says the mammal represents diversity, which is found amongst ESOL students.
"I think they're found in every ocean in the world, in the same way we have children from different nationalities, and it is very interesting to find out that they communicate too," said Rios. "So language is very important to them."
And while Rios' students are put to the test during Whale Day, the handful of students in grades K through 5 are leaving with an over"whaling" amount of information.
"I also didn't know that the fin of a whale is kind of like the fingerprint of your thumb," said Noah Biech, a fifth grader at Panama City Advanced School. "It's unique in a way."
"It's fun while you're still learning which is really cool," said third grader Janna Elzawahry.
Rios started the Whale Day final project back in 2007.

The man suspected of injuring a Monona toddler last month is behind bars and faces prosecution in three counties.
Shortly before 10 p.m. on Saturday, Dubuque police arrested 21-year-old Troy Laufenberg at the Road Ranger on Central Avenue, after he had been on the run for more than a month.
"Troy was supposedly going to meet somebody at the Road Ranger," Monona police chief Jane Scott-Quandahl said. "He was identified, and Dubuque PD was called in and he was arrested without incident."
Scott-Quandahl said Laufenberg has friends and family in Dubuque and was staying with someone he knew.
The pursuit of Laufenberg, however, has its roots in July 15, when Monona officials responded to the apartment Laufenberg shared with his girlfriend, 18-year-old Emily Voshell; the couple's baby; and a toddler, Myah Larson, from Voshell's previous relationship.
There, Scott-Quandahl found Myah injured and unresponsive.
Five days later, on July 20, Clayton County prosecutor Al Heavens filed three charges against Laufenberg: possession of meth, possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver and child endangerment for allegedly having meth in an apartment where two children also lived.
Scott-Quandahl said the Department of Human Services had been monitoring the couple for the entire month leading up to Myah's injury. She couldn't say much more, other than the DHS had suspicions Myah might be in danger and the toddler's head injury happened the day after the DHS completed its month-long observation.
Since July 15, Myah has been in a coma-like state and is now in the care of state officials in Johnston.
On Sunday, Laufenberg appeared before a judge and as of Monday is in the Dubuque County jail with no option of bonding out.
In Dubuque County, he faces a hearing for violating his probation. The original charge was third-degree burglary.
A Wisconsin county also wants Laufenberg. Between that and the pending proceedings in Dubuque and Clayton counties, Laufenberg shouldn't be walking out of custody any time soon.
After more than a month of searching for Laufenberg, Scott-Quandahl said it's a relief to law enforcement agents and community members alike that the man is behind bars.
"It was just shy of 40 days that he was on the run," Scott-Quandahl said, recalling Saturday night. "My officer called me and said, 'I've got good news and I've got good news.' I said, 'Well, give me the good news.' He says, 'They caught Troy down in Dubuque.'"
The Clayton County prosecutor said he's exploring the possibility of filing additional charges, including ones stemming from child abuse and evading law enforcement. He also said it's still within the realm of possibilities that Voshell, Myah's mother, could face charges, too, though he added every consideration is still on the table at this point.
Laufenberg will appear in court Tuesday morning regarding his Dubuque County probation violations, according to judge Monica Ackley.

The Mayflower Chinese Restaurant in Basingstoke predicts a smooth year for the Year of the Snake
Updated 11:05am Wednesday 13th February 2013 in Business By Richard Garfield, Business Editor
THE Year of the Snake should be a smooth one.
That is according to Pamela Cheng, proprietor of the Mayflower Chinese Restaurant in Basingstoke.
On Sunday she wished diners at the packed Top of The Town restaurant in May Place, a very happy Chinese New Year.
The weather did not put a dampener on the celebration as a traditional lion dance, normally held outside, was performed inside the popular restaurant by the World Eagle Claw Kung Fu Association Lion Dance Team.
Mrs Cheng joined diners in offering the lion Lai See - Lucky Money.
She said: "I think it was a brilliant day and everyone in the restaurant enjoyed it.
"The Year of the Snake will be a good year," predicts Mrs Cheng.
"I think it's going to be a smooth year, but with hard work.
"People should focus on what they are trying to achieve and they will get there."

Residents come out in droves to contest draft General Plan update
Original post made on Dec 12, 2012

I hope the good people of Danville continue to fight to maintain the quality atmosphere and charm that defines their town. San Ramon has become a place I no longer recognize. Too much commercialism, too many chain stores and too many people. If I had known 10 years ago what San Ramon would become I would not have set down roots here for myself and my family. Keep up the good fight, Danville residents!
on Dec 12, 2012 at 7:10 am
Planning is so important to maintain the quality of the small town feel. When and if the residents abdicate their responsibility to control planning opens the door for outsiders who, "know better what we need" to move in and make changes. This is usually profit driven for housing or commercial development and those we elect are often co-opted by big business and their big dollars to approve development that does not conform or meet the needs of our citizens and community. These big businesses usually come from outside our community and are very adept at manipulating our rules and regulations, then turn them against us for their own gain. Summer Hill development is one great example and so is the term "Low Income Housing", which usually means if other communities have to do this so does Danville. If one works hard to be able to move to a more desirable community how is it that those that haven't worked as hard are able to have it given to them? You see here is the rub, that to even mention this makes you look like an intolerant individual and those that want to take advantage of political correctness know this and exploit to the hilt.
on Dec 12, 2012 at 7:29 am
We attended the meeting last night. I was so glad to be there and to listen to the proposal, concerns and complaints. Never in my 17 years in Danville have I ever felt so incredibly DUPPED by our representatives. I cannot urge the residents enough to be present at the next meeting about this Plan. Show your support for our Town. Keeping it it the way you like it - the reason why you moved here.
More people = over-crowded schools, more taxes to pay for more schools; parking; crime rates rise; fire and police service increase, as will our taxes... and it goes on from there. Like one woman quoted last night, "Build it and they will come; don't build it, and they won't."

The rambling piano chords that begin "Speed of Sound" couldn't be anybody but Coldplay; they have the band's stylistic stamp. That's what the new song sounds like. But if you've managed to catch the video, then you've seen a very different stylistic approach for the band.
Directed by Mark Romanek, the video features the four band members performing in front of a curved ellipse wall that consists of 640 Element Labs' VersaTubes™ placed on 6" centers. Lighting designer Michael Keeling's aim was to give the band a raw, onstage look with an emphasis on silhouettes and key lighting. Aside from the massive wall of light, VersaTubes were used in groups of two, four, eight, and 16 for key light. The result presents the band in close-ups and long shots with the ever-present VersaTubes seemingly just within reach.
"Speed of Sound" is the first single off of Coldplay's new album, X&Y, which debuted at number one on June 14th. The song's video was originally conceived as a handful of vignettes, and lighting was going to be very minimal, according to Keeling, who previously teamed with Romanek on Lenny Kravitz's "Are You Gonna Go My Way?" video in 1993. "Ultimately, I wanted to do something in a sizable fashion that would not one-up the Lenny Kravitz video but would show people something very fresh with new technology and simplistic style," Keeling explains. That's when Keeling sent Romanek a teaser about the VersaTube, "which captured my imagination when it allowed you to use a light source of this new technology and switch to using it in a video format."
The video went from the original five-scene concept using only 40 fixtures, then to 300 fixtures, and then to 600 fixtures when Romanek informed Keeling that the band wanted the video to be a single set performance piece. That upped the lighting ante to over 700 fixtures: 640 VersaTubes on the wall and 100 more used for key light. "This was our chance to do something along the lines of the Lenny video, but in a new format with new technology that will let us push the envelope and create something delicate and enormous," Keeling says. "We could bring something to the table that is graceful, beautiful, and really shows the art of light."
Between the VersaTubes and PRG's Mbox™ media server, Keeling found the perfect combination of technology to achieve his creative goals for the video, especially considering his lack of interest in the same old, same old. "Moving lights have been around forever, it seems," he laments, "and I have been really bored with lighting recently and wanted to do something that was totally different." Romanek agreed and told Keeling that if they were going to do something different, it was going to be all or nothing. Therefore, every light source for "The Speed of Sound" was to be LED (one 20k source adds light for the massive stage).
Keeling had no problem with using all LEDs because he has been fairly jazzed by the new technology. "Between the [James Thomas Engineering] Pixel Line, the [Color Kinetics] Color Blaze®, and the Element Labs product line, the technology really blows me away because you don't have dimmer processor delays or three different key strokes you have to go to; everything is right there, and it reacts so quickly," he says. "The colors are so vibrant and so dimensional, and they say you can get a million colors, but I only need 15 or 20; if I get red-green-blue, and hue changes from them, then I'm solid."
As for key lights, VersaTubes were set up on C-stands and rolling crank-up stands like Kino Flo's Image80 system, according to Keeling. "On wide shots, we'd pull from a close-up to max wide shots, and then two sets of electricians on either side of the band would pull [the key lights] that were doing the soft lighting out of frame as fast as they could," he says. "It was just beautiful."
Being completely LED-illuminated was not the only requirement the director had for the designer. Romanek wanted the band's stem tracks split out and to have the drums, bass, guitar, and vocals on separate tracks, which were then animated, and the lights were synthesized to each of the tracks, much like the level indicator on a stereo's equalizer. In the end, Romanek and Keeling opted to use Coldplay frontman Chris Martin's vocal track to animate "because it had such dynamics," he says. "Roughly 75% of the video is driven by voice-activated animation." The animation was created by Vello Virkhaus and sent through the Mbox and controlled via a Flying Pig Systems Wholehog® 2 console. Martin Phillips served as the lighting programmer and created some of the content. PRG's Andre Lear served as Mbox technician, and Jeremy Hochman of Element Labs provided onsite VersaTube technical support. Harris Savides served as the DP, and the producer was Arris McGarry.
The ellipse wall of VersaTubes really comes into play after the first verse, which reveals the band in silhouette, and the viewer is still "in the dark" about what to expect regarding the upcoming lighting effects. "We start the lighting look with just a sparse hint of twinkling light," Keeling explains. "Then my favorite cue is the first big light cue and wide shot with the lyrics 'I look up at night,' defining the massive space that Mark wanted. Chris then comes off the keyboard, and it's just teardrops falling off the wall like a dripping candle. I think that look is my favorite look I've ever had the chance to direct in my life. It's just so sentimental when you listen to the lyrics."
The whole beginning of the song featuring the silhouette lighting was Romanek's idea, but Keeling loved it. "You don't see anything other than the massive space and delicate frame," he says. "Mark has a great intuition for what he wants captured on film. He allows me a freedom of creativity but still has a lot of input. He is a director of great detail. I was flattered to work with this production team. For those creative geniuses out there, please don't stop creating new technology for our industry."

It has finally gotten to the point where it's harder for me to hold a dumbbell between my feet than it is to actually do the damn pull up. So, I want to buy a belt. From what I can see, there appears to be just two kinds, leather and nylon.
1) Which is better as far as quality (not breaking) and comfort?
2) I'm looking at them on Amazon. Is there any other recommended place to buy one?
3) Once I get the belt, are there any special tips I should know about before hand? Like how to not bang myself in the nuts with the weights, or just generally not accidentally do something stupid/dangerous.
Thanks in advance guys.

Get leather. They're not really any more expensive.
APT has some connections with WBB and I've had very good service from them on multiple orders.
You can get the right length of chain and steel 'biners at any hardware store.

I've got a leather one. Works great. My only close call was pinching my nuts when dipping 3 plates.
1) I have a padded nylon belt that works fine, and is comfortable. I can see leather being stronger though.
2) You could try a local second hand fitness store, or maybe eBay.
3) Stand the weight up on the ground or on a bench before pulling the chain through. The same for taking the chain off. Other than that, you should be fine.

My old gym had a leather one which tore on me when I was dipping with 160lbs on it. It was partially torn when I started dipping and lasted 3 years before it tore. No idea how long it had been torn, but it looked real old. I never saw anyone else use it (one of the best pieces of lifting equipment IMO). They never replaced it (they never fixed/replaced anything but cardio equip. One reason I'm not there anymore). I would imagine a new one would last a long, long time if you took care of it. BTW, if one does tear, it will really scare the crap out of you. Most of my gym shirts have little holes in the front where the chains pinch the fabric. No biggie.

I've been happy with the one I got from APT, although I replaced the stock chain with a longer one. The one it came with was so short that if I used 45 pound plates my nuts didn't just graze the plates, they perched on top of them.
That's not a position that I'm comfortable with.
With strength I burn
This has happened to me as well. A tip to avoid this is to get some athletic tape and then tape around where the chain meets the rings on the belt. No more pinching for me.Originally Posted by manowar669

About the New PABS Mbt Program
I am pleased to announce that the new California State University Professional Master's Program in Applied Biotechnology Studies will be offered starting Fall 2014!
The Program for Applied Biotechnology Studies (PABS) was launched in fall 2009 as a collaborative Master of Biotechnology (MBt) degree program offered through a partnership among several campuses in the California State University system. The program curriculum has been carefully designed by academic and industry experts. The two-year curriculum combines relevant advanced study in sciences and management with "plus" elements that include project management, team-based learning, team leadership, industrial ethics and business communication skills. A culminating master's project allows participants to develop workplace solutions in biotech environments. The integrated curriculum is designed to produce graduates who can contribute to workplace solutions on the first day of employment.
The PABS MBt program has gained widespread recognition in the business sectors of the Los Angeles and Northern Orange County areas. Participating companies include Grifols Biologicals, Gilead Sciences, Allergan, Watson Laboratories, Advanced Bionics, Celgene, Amgen, Edwards Lifesciences, Mannkind Corporation, Amphastar, Inc., Phenomenex and the Albert Mann Foundation.
The current job placement for graduates of the MBt program is 93%.
New Expanded PABS Consortium
Cal State University, Dominguez Hills is now part of the PABS collaboration. CSUDH participation strengthens the program in several ways: 1) The campus is located near a number of biomedical products businesses such as Phenomenex, Bachem, and Molecular Express; 2) Students living in Torrance, South Bay, West L.A. or Long Beach areas have better access to program facilities; 3) The CSUDH Quality Assurance program provides access to advanced courses and expertise in Quality Assurance and Regulatory Affairs, fields which are important in industry; and 4) Quality courses are offered online.
New Expanded Curriculum
The curriculum of the program has been enhanced to provide a better focus on the technical and business skills necessary for a successful industrial career. MBt offers concentrations in six areas: Molecular Biology/Biochemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Quality Assurance, Biotechnology Business, Informatics/Biomathematics, and Engineering. The new curriculum has an increased focus on biotechnology, stem cell methodology, drug discovery and industrial regulatory affairs.
With the new program set to start in Fall, 2014, we are also making the program more accessible to full-time professionals by moving more of the core curriculum elements to late afternoon and evening offerings.

I was thoroughly disappointed with Suicide Season(SS). I thought Count Your Blessings(CYB) was pretty decent, but Bring Me The Horizon have changed their sound, and in my opinion it's a change for the worse. First off, they changed the music aspect. CYB was nothing groundbreaking, but SS sounds pretty generic, like a toned down version of Johnny Truant or Norma Jean. Also, they throw in some pointless electronic noises, distortion effects, and jazz intros, to try to spice it up, but to no effect.
But the worst change is the vocals. MY GOD! are they terrible. Skyes did an incredible job on CYB,with brutal growls and terrifying shrieks. On SS, his vocals are so one-note and bland. Also, his lyrics are pretty bad. Every song is about partying or something stupid. "We can't sleep, it's for weak people, We can't rest til we're ****ing dead." I don't mind bad lyrics in metal, but when you can understand them, and their this bad, it kind of ruins the music.
Don't get the wrong idea, I don't mind progression in music, I actually want it. And BMTH have certainly progressed, but I guess SS is just not my cup of British tea(pun intended).

[size=18px]Bears' Grossman Returns to Vikings' House of Horrors [/size]
(Sports Network) - For Chicago Bears quarterback Rex Grossman, it is back to the scene of the crime.
The last time Grossman took the field at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, he left on a cart after suffering a torn right ACL that knocked him out for the final 13 games of the 2004 season. Grossman, who re-habbed the injury only to suffer a broken fibula in the 2005 preseason, has battled back to earn a starting job as the Bears head into Minnesota in the regular season finale for both teams.
In Grossman's first start since that fateful day at the Metrodome, Chicago was a 24-17 road winner at Green Bay last week. With the victory, the Bears locked up the No. 2 playoff seed and a first-round bye in the NFC, while claiming their first division title since the 2001 season.
It appeared for many weeks that Sunday's game would have playoff meaning for the host Vikings, but a two-game losing streak put an end to Minnesota's postseason chances. One week after falling at home to Pittsburgh, Mike Tice's team went to Baltimore on Christmas night and suffered a 30-23 loss to the Ravens. With a win over the Bears this week, Minnesota will have clinched just the second winning season in Tice's four-year tenure.
The Vikings lead the series with the Bears, which dates back to 1961, by a 47-39-2 count. Chicago drew nearer in the series by whipping the Vikings, 28-3, at Soldier Field on Week 6. The home team has won the last seven meetings, and Chicago last won in Minnesota during the 2001 campaign, a 13-6 triumph.
The clubs have met just once in the postseason, a 35-18 Chicago road win in a 1994 NFC First-Round Playoff tilt.
Tice is 3-4 against Chicago in his career, while Chicago's Lovie Smith is 2-1 against both Tice and the Vikings as a head coach.
The major story for the Bears in the past two weeks has been the work of Grossman (259 passing yards, 1 TD, 2 INT), who has not exactly set the world on fire from a statistical standpoint but has given the offense a noticeable spark. In last Sunday's win at Green Bay, Grossman completed 11-of-23 passes for 166 yards with a touchdown and an interception, while generally helping to open things up for running back Thomas Jones (105 yards on the day). No. 1 wideout Muhsin Muhammad (64 receptions, 4 TD) caught a team-best five passes for 58 yards and a touchdown in the win, while Bernard Berrian (12 receptions) made his three catches count for 93 yards. No. 2 receiver Justin Gage (25 receptions, 1 TD) was limited to two grabs totaling 14 yards in the contest, and tight end Desmond Clark (24 receptions, 2 TD) did not have a reception. Grossman was sacked just once in Green Bay, and the Chicago line has allowed a mere 28 sacks all season. The Bears are 31st in NFL passing offense (127 yards per game), however, ahead of only the 49ers in that category. It is unclear how much of Sunday's game Grossman will play, but Kyle Orton (1810 passing yards, 9 TD, 13 INT) should see at least some time under center against the Vikes.
The Minnesota defense made Ravens quarterback Kyle Boller look like the second coming of Johnny Unitas last Sunday, with Boller's 289-yard, three-touchdown performance serving as a major factor in the Baltimore win. Seeking to avoid a similar scenario will be the Vikings secondary of Antoine Winfield (93 tackles, 4 INT) and Brian Williams (45 tackles, 4 INT, 1 sack) at cornerback and Darren Sharper (47 tackles, 9 INT) and Corey Chavous (66 tackles, 2 INT) at the safety positions. Sharper came up with one of the unit's few big plays against Baltimore, notching his NFC-leading ninth interception of the year in the defeat. The Minnesota pass rush has been mostly non-existent all season, with ends Erasmus James (27 tackles, 4 sacks) and Lance Johnstone (20 tackles, 7.5 sacks) both failing to break through to Boller last week. The Vikings rank near the bottom of the league with just 31 sacks through 15 games, and are 24th in NFL passing defense (215.7 yards per game).
The Bears are featuring the NFL's ninth-ranked rushing offense (129.7 yards per game) as Week 17 commences, but Jones (1273 rushing yards, 9 TD, 27 receptions), who has been at the center of that effort, doesn't figure to play much more than a quarter on Sunday. Jones is 27 yards shy of becoming just the second back in franchise history to reach the 1,300-yard plateau, joining the great Walter Payton, and after he achieves the mark will likely sit in favor of either Adrian Peterson (356 rushing yards, 2 TD) and/or first-round draft choice Cedric Benson (237 rushing yards). Benson has missed the last six weeks with a sprained right MCL, and is considered questionable for the Minnesota game. Chicago also has injury problems at fullback, where Bryan Johnson is out for at least three weeks with a stress fracture in his foot. Jason McKie (4 receptions) will start at fullback on Sunday.
After struggling against the run early in the year, the Vikings are up to 18th in NFL rushing defense (112.5 yards per game), thanks in large part to the work of tackles Pat Williams (65 tackles, 1.5 sacks) and Kevin Williams (35 tackles, 2 sacks) along the interior line. The former Williams had seven tackles in last week's loss to Baltimore, and the latter posted three stops and a pass deflection while helping limit the Ravens' Jamal Lewis to 74 ground yards on 24 carries. Linebackers E.J. Henderson (66 tackles), Sam Cowart (80 tackles, 2 sacks) and Raonall Smith (35 tackles, 1 sack) were all involved against Baltimore, as Henderson led the linebacking crew with seven tackles and Cowart and Smith posted the team's only two sacks of the night.
Though he was unable to guide the Vikings to a much-needed win on Christmas night, Minnesota quarterback Brad Johnson (1638 passing yards, 10 TD, 4 INT) had one of his most efficient games of the season. The veteran completed 25- of-36 passes for 248 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Ravens, connecting on passes to 10 different targets on the night. Foremost among the pass-catchers was tight end Jermaine Wiggins (66 receptions, 1 TD), who caught seven balls for 43 yards and scored his first touchdown of the season. Among wide receivers, Nate Burleson (24 receptions, 1 TD) and Travis Taylor (45 receptions, 3 TD) were the most active. Burleson hauled in four catches for 26 yards, and Taylor caught three passes for 40 yards and a touchdown against his former team. Rookie Troy Williamson (22 receptions, 2 TD) also made a rare impact play, making his only catch stand for 56 yards. Johnson was sacked three times in Baltimore, bringing the total allowed by the Minnesota line this year to an NFC-high 54. The Vikes are 22nd in NFL passing offense (193.3 yards per game) as Week 17 begins.
Placing pressure on Johnson will be a Chicago pass rush that has been a major part of the team's success this season. Ends Adewale Ogunleye (40 tackles, 10 sacks) and Alex Brown (44 tackles, 6 sacks) have both had their moments in '05, and middle linebacker Brian Urlacher (6 sacks) has also had a hand in the containment of opposing quarterbacks. The Bears sacked Green Bay's Brett Favre twice last week, with Brown and tackle Tank Johnson (24 tackles, 5 sacks) both breaking through in the win. The playmaking Chicago secondary intercepted Favre four times in the contest, including twice by safety Chris Harris (57 tackles, 3 INT, 1 sack) and once by cornerback Charles Tillman (93 tackles, 5 INT, 1 sack), but that unit is not expected to be clicking on all cylinders Sunday. Tillman (shoulder) and safeties Mike Brown (left calf) and Mike Green (left shoulder) are all considered questionable for this week, and it seems unlikely that any will play based on the lack of importance of this game. Chicago is third in the league in passing defense (175 yards per game).
The Vikings' revolving door of running backs stopped on Mewelde Moore (605 rushing yards, 31 receptions, 2 TD) last week, as Moore got the nod over Michael Bennett (391 rushing yards, 24 receptions, 4 TD) and carried 10 times for 49 yards. Moore also ranked among team leaders with four receptions for 42 yards in the contest. Bennett saw only limited time, catching a 10-yard pass and netting minus-one yard on his only rush of the night. Moore is expected to again be the primary ball carrier this week, with Bennett and rookie Ciatrick Fason (59 rushing yards, 3 TD) coming off the bench. Minnesota is a distant 29th in NFL rushing offense (87.9 yards per game) as the final week of the year gets underway.
Chicago didn't have much trouble bottling up Green Bay's depleted rushing game last Sunday, holding Green Bay running backs Noah Herron and Tony Fisher to a combined 55 yards on 20 carries on the afternoon. Linebackers Urlacher (121 tackles) and Lance Briggs (106 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 INT), who are 1-2 on the Bears in tackles, combined for 13 tackles in the game. Briggs also returned a Favre interception for an easy 10-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Third linebacker Hunter Hillenmeyer (63 tackles, 1 sack, 1 INT) is not expected to play this week due to a right thumb injury. The Bears' interior line rotation of Tank Johnson (24 tackles, 5 sacks), Ian Scott (27 tackles), Tommie Harris (31 tackles, 3 sacks), and Alfonso Boone (12 tackles, 1.5 sacks) has played extremely well this season despite remaining somewhat anonymous outside of Chicago. Johnson and Harris each had three tackles in Green Bay. Scott is not expected to play this week due to a hamstring injury. The Bears are eighth in NFL rushing defense (99.2 yards per game) at present.
After watching their postseason aspirations crumble over the last two weeks, it is hard to believe the Vikings will come out with much fire on Sunday. Complicating matters for Minnesota is that it doesn't match up very well with Chicago, which is deep on defense and has the ability to force some Brad Johnson miscues. On the other side of the ball, the team's offensive principles might not see much action, but the Bears have strong backups at both the running back and quarterback positions, and should be able to do enough to score some points and leave the Metrodome with a win.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Bears 19, Vikings 14

Study shows what you eat may increase risk of bowel cancer
4:28pm Thursday 6th December 2012 in News By Barry Nelson, Health & Education Editor
NEW research has shown that molecular changes to people's genes are driven mainly by ageing but are also affected by what they eat.
The study, which involved scientists from Newcastle University and the Institute of Food Research, showed that while age had the biggest effects on these molecular changes, selenium and vitamin D reduced the accumulation of changes.
The researchers also found that obesity and a high level of vitamin B increased these changes.
These findings support the idea that healthy ageing is affected by what people eat.
The B vitamin is essential for health and is found in many green-leafed vegetables, but in this study, high levels of B vitamins in the blood was associated with increased levels of genetic changes linked with bowel cancer.
These findings are consistent with some studies suggesting that excessive folic acid intakes may increase the risk of bowel cancer in some people.
Obesity is also a risk factor for bowel cancer. This study found relationships between body size and gene changes.
How excess body weight induces these changes, and the consequences for gut health, are being investigated.
