City to offer special flu shot clinic Saturday, Oct. 16
The City of Kansas City, Mo., will provide a special flu shot clinic at the City's Health Department, 2400 Troost Ave., on Saturday, Oct. 16 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Flu vaccine will be available for those three years and older on a first-come, first-served basis.
"This year's flu shot protects against both H1N1 and several other strains of flu virus already infecting people this year," said Dr. Rex Archer, director of the Health Department. "Remember, getting a flu shot doesn't just protect you, it helps protect everyone around you."
The Health Department will bill Medicare Part B or Missouri Medicaid on behalf of those who are eligible and show proof of coverage. Anyone not eligible for these programs will be charged $20. Cash and credit cards only will be accepted for payment during the clinic. Those with other insurance providers covering flu vaccination will need to work with their provider for reimbursement.
"Making these flu shots available to residents who may have no other medical options is good for the health of Kansas City," said Mayor Mark Funkhouser. "I urge residents to evaluate their own needs and take advantage of this opportunity if it makes sense for them."
Flu viruses are constantly changing. Each flu season, different flu viruses can spread and affect people differently based on their bodies' ability to fight infection. Getting a flu shot is the best way to prevent the flu or decrease the length and severity of symptoms.
For more information on flu vaccine, visit the Health Department website, www.kcmo.org/health.

Intel, STMicroelectronics, and Francisco Partners finally closed a deal on Monday to launch Numonyx, a flash-memory joint venture between the three companies, with much less funding than originally expected.
The company will receive $450 million in loans from lenders, about $900 million less than the secured debt that was expected when the Numonyx deal was originally announced in May last year. The deal then called for lenders to provide up to $1.3 billion to finance Numonyx. Stemming from the turmoil in debt markets, Intel in December said the parties renegotiated the commitment letter, calling for lenders to provide a $650 million loan and $100 million in a revolving credit facility.
Numonyx will combine Intel's and STMicroelectronics' efforts to manufacture NOR and NAND memory for consumer and industrial products including cell phones, digital cameras, PCs and other embedded devices. The new company will also merge research and development efforts.
Although the debt markets are experiencing turmoil, the basic structure of the deal hasn't changed and Numonyx will be more efficient as a result, said Brian Harrison, president and CEO of Numonyx, during a news briefing in San Francisco. It will be leaner and in a better position to add funds in the future, he said.
That lenders would backtrack on millions of dollars pledged to the initiative is "mysterious," with the launch delay possibly stemming from turmoil in the debt market, said Jim Handy, director at Objective Analysis.
STMicroelectronics and Intel will hold a 49 percent share and a 45 percent share in Numonyx, respectively. Francisco Partners, which is providing $150 million in cash to the venture, will hold a 6 percent share. Numonyx will have an annual combined estimated revenue of $3 billion, making it the third-largest nonvolatile memory manufacturer in the world after Samsung and Toshiba, Harrison said.
Numonyx will merge seven fabs from both companies into two fabs, with one in Singapore and the other in Israel, Harrison said. It will produce memory using the 65-nm manufacturing node, with a ramp to the 45-nm manufacturing node planned for later this year.
Numonyx will also enter a joint venture with Hynix Semiconductor to manufacture NAND flash memory, with Numonyx getting access to a 300mm wafer fab in China. Under terms of the joint venture, Numonyx can own up to 33 percent of the facility.
By combining resources, Intel and STMicroelectronics will no longer duplicate manufacturing and design or research and development efforts, which should lead to savings, Handy said. Numonyx will also focus on fabs dedicated to manufacturing specific types of memory technologies, instead of mixing up memory production in fabs. Numonyx's joint venture with Hynix will focus on manufacturing NAND flash, while Numonyx facilities in Israel and Singapore will focus on producing NOR flash and small amounts of phase-change memory.
The company will ramp up phase-change memory production in the future, but will continue to produce NOR and NAND flash, Harrison said. The company has already delivered samples of Alverstone, a phase-change memory chip, which uses a glass-like material that can change from an amorphous, or gaseous, state to a crystalline state as its atoms are rearranged. The state of the material corresponds to the 1s and 0s in computing, allowing it to be used to store data.

North Phenix Baptist Church is missing all of the copper tubing that ran underneath their sanctuary.
According to the Phenix City Police Department, the pipes were stolen some time in the last few weeks. Church members say it was a surprising and disappointing find.
"It's sad that they would resort to stealing from God's house in order to support their habits," Tim Jernigan, North Phenix Baptist Church's Property and Grounds Committee Chairman, tells News Leader Nine.
Jernigan says three weeks ago, church members noticed the air conditioning in the sanctuary was not working. After not being able to find or fix the problem, the church decided to call in a technician.
"When we called the repair man to fix it, he discovered all the copper had been stolen out from under the building," Jernigan adds.
The pastor at North Phenix Baptist Church says the robbers used a crawl space to go up under the building, and snatch out all of the copper wiring that went to the air condition units for the entire building. He says this will cost them somewhere in the park of around $5,000.
"Not only did they steal the copper," Jernigan explains, "but the units were damaged."
The Phenix City Police Department says the crime of stealing copper has declined over the last few months as a result of local and state efforts to monitor copper thefts and sales--a business that could rake in more than three dollars a pound according to www.investmine.com.
The theft has left those at North Phenix Baptist working to replace what they have lost.
Jernigan assures, "We're in the process of filing a claim, and perhaps that will take care of most of the cost. Of course there will probably be deductibles and all, but we do what we have to do. God provides."
No suspects have been identified yet in this incident. Phenix City police tell us they are continuing to work with local vendors who buy copper to cut down on the sale of the material in east Alabama.

The Actors Theatre of San Francisco has grown from a collection of actors with a common vision into one of the Bay Area's most acclaimed theatre companies.

The founding members gave themselves no restrictions as to style, content, or period. Instead, they committed themselves to producing theatre that is designed to enlighten and illuminate the human condition

This is a tool that you only should use when you have received a notifation from Google saying that they have detected suspicious activity in your links exchange.
This tool is not a life saver, and it will not miracle help you to build ranking even if it looks like it. The tool should be used to get rid of those links that harm your site, of course... but if not used properly you may also get rid of the good links. So it can damage your ranking big time if you use it the wrong way.
That's why it should only be used when Google tells you where the problem is and therefore you can manually get rid of it.

Molona has answered two of your questions. You also asked about how long it takes and how you'll know when the links have been disavowed.
I have a little experience with this tool. In my case, it took ten weeks to take effect. I didn't get any sort of acknowledgement from Google, and no notification of its effect. But I did see the links that I disavowed disappear from the relevant page in Google Webmaster Tools. Since then there's been a small improvement in the site's ranking, but I've no way of knowing if that was because of the disavowel or one of several other factors that might have affected it.
I agree with Molona that the tool is not a life-saver. You should only use if you have received a spammy links notification, and even then don't expect too much good to come of it.

Wealthy slumlord pleads guilty to solicitation of arson
by Lynda Carson
Singer's next court date is scheduled for Aug. 31, 2011, at 2 p.m. for sentencing. Solicitation to commit arson is a felony, punishable with penalties including a maximum prison term of 10 years and a fine of $125,000.
According to charges filed by the FBI and ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms), on Jan. 10, 2011, Richard Earl Singer knowingly and intentionally attempted to hire another person to burn down the Menlo Hotel or Ridge Hotel, both being occupied low-income residential hotels in Oakland at that time.
Additionally, federal officials stated that two people reported Singer's intention to hire someone to burn down one of the hotels. One of the informants worked with the FBI and ATF to stop Singer from burning down either hotel.
Both hotels are located in downtown Oakland. An arson fire large enough to burn down either hotel would have placed residents and other buildings at risk, including the firefighters called in to battle the blaze. Federal officials state that as part of the arson scam, Singer suggested, during a recorded conversation on Jan. 10, 2011, that the fire department might be slower to respond to the arson fire if they were to receive several false alarms before an actual fire was started.
Also, on Dec. 28, 2010, Singer met with one of the federal informants. In a recorded conversation, Singer was asked if he still wanted to get rid of one of his hotels in Oakland and said "yeah," according to the federal affidavit. The two of them continued talking and the informant told Singer that a professional was found in New York. Eventually, they settled upon the Menlo Hotel as being the better target of arson.
Singer was arrested on or around Jan. 17, 2011, and was released from custody on Jan. 20, 2011, after surrendering his passport and posting a $700,000 secured bond. Additionally, Singer's wife, Patricia Singer, and his mother, Gloria Singer, posted a $500,000 unsecured bond as co-signers to further assist in bailing him out of jail.
Singer was released into the custody of his wife Patricia where they both reside in the upscale hills of Tiburon, Mark Terrace, in a four bedroom house valued at $2,100,000. According to court documents, he is restricted from having any contact with the two witnesses who acted as informants and alerted the ATF to his plan of burning down the Menlo Hotel. One of the informants was a former employee of the Menlo Hotel, according to federal officials.
Adding to the criminal charges of conspiring to hire an arsonist to burn down the Menlo Hotel, a local elevator repair company out of Pacifica accused Singer, the owner of Oakland's Menlo Hotel and Ridge Hotel, of operating his buildings and the building's elevators in an unsafe manner, according to an April 2, 2010, letter from Curtis Bleyle of Bleyle Elevator, Inc., to Singer, Ryan Nathan, Sam Manning and Joel McCall of the management company, RMD Services.
Singer has additionally faced a class action lawsuit from over 50 residents of the Ridge Hotel and has faced lawsuits from many residents at the Menlo Hotel who have sued him for operating both hotels in slum-like conditions.
Singer had hired the law office of Arguedas, Cassman and Headly, LLP, in Berkeley and Oakland attorney Paul Delano Wolf to represent him in the arson case. Singer's attorney, Daniel Charles Roth, was not available for comment.

Biscaha opened up the day's action with his first of two upsets. The junior knocked off sixth-seeded Reece Lefever from Wabash by the score of 3-2, handing Lefever just his third loss of the year. In his second bout, just over an hour later, Biscaha toppled Josh Etzel of Washington and Jefferson, by the score of 5-3. In the evening session, Biscaha handled the nation's third-ranked wrestler, Cole Welter of Wartburg, 6-1.
At 133, Derek Adams began his first NCAA Championship experience with a victory over the eighth seed in his weight class, McDaniels' Ryan O'Boyle, as he produced a 6-3 decision. In the evening session, Adams was bested by the nation's top-ranked wrestler, Kenneth Anderson of Wartburg, by major decision, 14-3. The sophomore then advanced past Chris Sokol from Dubuque by grinding out a 4-2 win to advance to Saturday.
Jeremy Burns, wrestling in the 197 pound weight class, was pinned in 1:35 by fourth-seeded Mike Benefiel from Elmhurst in the first round. Burns then squared off against Ryan Michaelis of St. Johns and responded with a strong effort en route to a 7-2 victory. In his first match of the evening session, Burns prevailed in a gritty 6-1 overtime victory over Musa De`Reese of Hunter. Later on he went up against Shane Siefert of Wisconsin Whitewater, and was clipped, 2-1, in triple overtime.
Returning All-American Derrick Longo was seeded seventh at 165 pounds and was upset in the first round by Owen Vernon of Centenary, 5-0. In the wrestle back, Longo rebounded with a 8-4 victory over Justin Bowland of Augsburg, before falling to Luther's Garrett Bonte, 8-2.
In his first match of the day, Tommy Casper dropped a hard-fought battle to the eighth-seed, Matthia Ellis II of Brockport in the 125 pound competition by the score of 5-4. Casper later squared off against second-seeded Nate Giorgio of Coast Guard, and was defeated by technical fall, 17-0.

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) – Three women were arrested in Myrtle Beach and charged with prostitution Tuesday night after placing online ads, according to Myrtle Beach Police.
Allison-Anne Hankins, 32, was arrested in the 1200 block of Moser Drive at about 7:45 p.m. Tuesday, according to police reports. The arresting officer responded to an online ad placed by Hankins via text message, the report states, and she agreed to meet with him to "have sex and whatever else" he wanted for $200.
She was arrested and with charged with her first offense for prostitution.
At about 11:40 p.m. Tuesday, officers arrested 20-year-old Brittney Alexis Gregson, who has also been charged with her first offense for prostitution, according to police reports.
Officers say Hankins, Gregson, and a third woman were all captured after placing "Backpage" ads online.
The reports also shows two of the women live in hotels on South Ocean Boulevard. A resident who lives near says prostitution is common in the area all the time.
"We see women all the time and they come bay and ask for cigarettes and ask for business," says Michael Ortega.
Police tell us they are able to catch prostitution in the winter more often because there are less people in the Grand Strand. They also use female officers to run stings on Johns.

You have to practice before you can play, so Knowshon Moreno's return to workouts is a step in the right direction for owners banking on him in Week One.
Moreno, who reportedly suffered a slight hamstring tear on Aug. 1 and has been sidelined ever since, practiced with the Broncos for the first time in a month on Tuesday. Although he wore a non-contact jersey to avoid taking any hits, Denver's starting back said he was at about 80 percent physically.
With roughly a week and a half until the Broncos open the season at Jacksonville on Sept. 12, the fact that Moreno isn't far away from being at full strength is a great sign for him playing Week One. The team likely will be very careful with him in the days leading up to the opener — he's a long shot to suit up for Thursday's preseason finale at Minnesota — in hopes that he can anchor the backfield when the games actually count.
Considering how much excitement the second-year player conjured up with his praiseworthy offseason, owners should not be overly concerned about Moreno's hamstring when it comes to his fantasy value. He missed almost all of August a year ago and still had a productive campaign, and he's expected to be the focal point of this offense.
It remains a wise move to monitor Moreno's status over the next week, but indications are that he will be in the starting lineup against the Jaguars.

It's that time of year again! Gearing up for school and finding just the right backpack and all the coolest stuff to fill my pencil box was such a fun time for me growing up. A brand new
note book full of blank pages always felt like a fresh start, and brought to
mind a whole school year's worth of possibilities. This year we're sharing our
favourite finds to help bring FUN back to school…

The flashing red and blue in your rearview mirror, or behind someone on the side of the road is usually how we see a Pima County Sheriff's Deputy.
But new recruits fresh out of the academy, the ones we could face or call for help one day, find there's a lot more to the job. And for Deputy Jesus Rodriguez, entering the field is an eye-opener.
"You feel like you have a pretty good understanding of what to expect, but the first couple of days out on the street, actually the first hour on the street you can tell it's completely different," Rodriguez said.
"That's the one thing I've been working on with him, is basically to sound like he's in charge," said his field training officer, Deputy Jose Valenzuela.
Rodriguez was tested on that right away, as he questioned a man on Tucson's southwest side.
"If you read the dollar bill, what does it have on it? My name - God," was part of many things the man said as he was handcuffed and placed in the back of a patrol vehicle and taken to a mental health facility.
Deputy Valenzuela critiqued where Rodriguez and another deputy in training stood while speaking to the man. He showed how they could keep more control in the situation.
"He got up and was being cooperative but at the same time, could he have jumped up and just took off running? You guys had the perfect position because he was over here, and you were over there, and he had his hands right here," Valenzuela said before motioning to show how the deputies could have swooped in to pick up the man. "You know what, Joe? You gotta come with us."
At many calls, the biggest challenge is figuring out the real story.
"What do they look like? You said one of them was a little heavy set?" Rodriguez asked a woman who called about two men who wouldn't leave her balcony.
But her responses revealed she was the one who needed attention. Valenzuela reviewed with Rodriguez what to do.
"What's another resource we could use if we wanted to seek some help for her?" Valenzuela asked Rodriguez.
"I forget the acronym but it's the meds that comes out here," he responded.
"SAMHC," Valenzuela said.
"SAMHC," Rodriguez repeated.
"There's so many things that, thanks to the FTOs, that you don't realize, but when they point them out it's just to make you better," Rodriguez said.
"It's something new every day. Never see the same thing twice," said Deputy Samantha Sanders, who is also in field training.
Sanders was a county corrections officer before going into the academy. But now she's serving you and me, not handling inmates. She, too, has a field training officer.
"They're very raw. Simple things … listening to the radio, orientation, map reading, simple investigations can seem complex," said Deputy Gilbert Caudillo, her field training officer.
He watched Sanders take information from a woman who said that she was followed from her son's daycare.
"I was afraid he was going to approach me, and he would not leave me alone," the woman later explained.
And Sanders sifted through a heated disagreement between a father and son before it took a turn for the worse, all while Caudillo watched and waited for times when his assistance was needed.
"I stepped in when her line of questioning got bogged down a little bit and kind of ran out of things to ask," he said.
"We just have to be prepared at all times. I think that's the biggest challenge is just making sure that we're on edge and ready for anything," Sanders said.
More classes of new deputies will hit our streets soon. Their field training officers will be watching to make sure we get men and women who know what they're doing, for the protection of everyone involved.
"You're always going to have - even your squad mates - everybody's always going to be watching you, looking out for you," Rodriguez said.
"I know the deputies we put out there are going to be squared away and they're going to know what to do and will go home safe every night," Valenzuela said.
During field training, they have four phases, and could have to repeat a phase if they don't do well. They also have a year and a half of probation after field training. Some have quit, and others have been terminated.
43 recruits started this academy, 29 graduated, and now 26 are in field training.

Police are hoping that robber's boldness and new surveillance video will lead to his arrest. The robber knew good and well the Camilla Family Dollar had surveillance cameras inside but he held up the store anyway without even disguising his face.
It's something that baffles investigators you're looking at surveillance video of a man who just robbed the Camilla Family Dollar.
"The fact that he didn't cover his face up, at all. He was very calm, cool. Didn't raise his voice much. Spoke very stern," said Camilla Investigator Robert Casterline.
It was the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and the store was crowded with customers. None of them aware the man at the counter was robbing the store.
"He had a firearm. He did show it to the clerk. He had it in his waistband and he pulled back just enough to let her know that he did have a weapon," Casterline said.
He asked the clerk for a pack of cigarettes before nonchalantly demanding money. He asked her to go the back of the store but instead of following he walked out.
"He just casually walked out right past people. Nobody had any idea what was going on," Casterline said after we showed the picture of the suspect on WALB.
Phone calls did come in, but so far none of the leads has panned out.
"Our local people don't have a clue who it is." But police hope you might. Take a look at him he has a beard, is wearing a doo rag and wears glasses which sit midway down his nose.
While investigators don't know if he's from the area, they hope someone knows something about this man that will lead to his arrest.
What's unclear is whether the robber got away on foot or left in a getaway car. If you recognize him, call Camilla Police at 229-336-2238.

New Home for my Cubs
Got a project that you are working on that is not a tractor? Maybe a barn to hold your tractors or just fun stuff like woodworking, glass, tools, sheds, gardens, custom implements, etc., this is the place to talk about it.
Moderator: Team Cub
Re: New Home for my Cubs
Well seeing as winter is almost here, I guess it is time for an update on me Pole Barn Project or the "New Home For My Cubs" saga.
As you may remember when we left off last winter.. it was a real chore once the snow began to fall on Remembrance Day to actually get the Pole Barn to a state where it could be left for the winter, and I would not have to freeze me tush off trying to get it done.
Along with other life issues such a grandchildren, kids.. moving, moving.. moving... and other exciting passtimes, it has been a while getting done. However, I am essentially weathertight and the Cubs are snug as bugs in a rug -- dry too!
Here are a few pics.. It ain't pretty, but it is sealed nicely. Hopefully siding and aluminum will come along next spring to match the house.
Front of the whole building with the Wood Shop doors and new window.
Why the Stop Sign you might ask? Well after my experience this summer on the private road that my wife's family own's, we are now closing our driveway daily. Seems people do not quite get the concept that private property is "well" private . Nearly every day we have somebody going for a drive down our driveway cause they think it is either access to the Mill, a shortcut to Melanson Road (they would have to invent a car that could swim because of the lake back ther) or just want to see what is up that road.... So we have to have private road, no trespassing, no swimming, no fishing and the stop sign along with a huge gate to keep people out. It is real scary when you come walking out of your shop with an armful of stuff for the cub shop and almost get run over by a stranger motoring down your driveway

South Wall of the Cub Shop

So, with Duane home tomorrow to give Dad a hand, hopefully we will have the second section built, Gord and I will have the trailer unloaded by Thursday morning and I guess maybe I might be ready for an impromptu MiniFest on Friday morning. Seems Bruce and Dale will be down from Nova Scotia and Gord and I will be hosts... maybe we can get Ellie's head redone Friday.. we shall see.
Anyways, more on the saga of the "New Home For My Cubs" in a bit.

Re: New Home for my Cubs
Thanks for all the nice comments, it is appreciated. I am enjoying this project. Besides getting the Cubs under cover, I am reestablishing room in my Cabinet Shop to actually play this winter. It is nice and toasty in there. I turned on the electric heat for about an hour today, just to bring the humidity down a tad. Really didn't need it as the new sheathing, plugged holes etc., has increased the ambient temp in the shop dramatically
Snow started at around 3pm today... Probably won't stay more than a day or two. Forecasting up to 12C on Tuesday... Winter isn't here yet, just enough to make it slippery and shut down roofing etc...
It already is pretty dry. The roof although not shingled, has two coats of asphalt over fibre tape and then a coat of heavy duty driveway sealer. Not exactly standard, but it does work. I am looking into the possibility of maybe becoming a demo project for the NB Tire Stewardshp Program - Recycled Shingle project. It may afford me a possible avenue to shingle for less than the expected $2,000.00 Cdn for regular asphalt shingles.. which don't last anywhere near their projected life expectancy. We shall see. It would be nice.... So far I have only found two tiny little drips in the pole barn, and I worked in it all day, pretty warm considering there is no heat and the sun was totally absent today.
There is no insulation yet. Going to rely on passive solar for most of my heating for this year. Maybe if I can find a warehouse that is being demolished or upgraded, I can get some recycled rolled fiberglass insulation to insulate the Pole Barn with. If it gets too cold in the interim, I guess one of them indoor propane heaters might work.. need to ventilate though.
It already is stuffed to the gills, but hopefully with the shelving I will be able to clear up enough room to actually work on my Cubs and the associated projects.
We gots hangers just up the street

The burglar posed as a doctor at seven hospitals around Northern California in order to steal credit cards from hospital staff, police said.
An Oakland woman suspected of posing as a doctor to break into staff-only areas of at least seven Northern California hospitals and steal credit cards from employee belongings was arrested earlier this month, the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office reported Monday. Yolanda Smith, 49, of Oakland was arrested in Fairfield on Jan. 22.
Smith reportedly donned a white lab coat and impersonated a doctor to enter secure areas of hospitals. She is suspected of burglarizing hospitals in Walnut Creek, Daly City, Gilroy, Modesto, Santa Cruz, Tracy and Fairfield, where she was spotted by a hospital security guard. Fairfield police made the arrest.
"Luckily, Fairfield picked her up," Santa Cruz County sheriff's deputy April Skalland said. "She's wreaked havoc and hit a lot of people throughout the Bay Area."
Skalland said it's been difficult to identify the impostor doctor because she doesn't stay in one place for long.
"We had some pretty good information and leads about who she was so we've been trying to track her," Skalland said.
Smith, who has a lengthy criminal history, allegedly scammed her way into staff-only areas by dressing like a doctor. It happened at Dominican Hospital in Santa Cruz during the lunch hour on Jan. 2. There, she draped a stethoscope around her neck to look the part. Once inside, she would pluck individual credit cards from purses or wallet rather than steal the entire bag, according to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office.
"You wouldn't even know your credit cards were missing until you went into your wallet," Skalland said. "She got away with it at so many hospitals. She had, unfortunately, a good scam going."
Smith used the cards stolen from Dominican Hospital to make about $4,500 in purchases at Best Buy, Target and a gas station, according to the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office.
Smith is suspected of multiple counts of burglary, identity theft and fraudulent use of a bank card, authorities reported.

Automating Long-Range Vibrometry Through Vision and Web Technologies
City College of New York, 2009 - $18,144Laser Doppler Vibrometers (LDVs) are sensors capable of detecting very small amounts of vibration from far away (100 meters or more). LDVs are used in bridge and building safety inspections, since structural defects give out small vibration signals, as well as in the automotive, aerospace, medical and industrial testing industries. The problem is that all current LDVs are manually operated, and it can take some time to find an appropriate reflective surface, focus the laser beam and get a vibration signal. This E-Team is developing a method to automate LDVs. The team's system, which involves hardware, software, and a web component, automatically selects a surface, tracks and focuses. The web component allows users to control the system remotely.
The team has filed a provisional patent and partnered with Polytec, an LDV company. With NCIIA funding they will build and test a working prototype, file for more patent protection, and look to pursue licensing with Polytec or other LDV manufacturers.

Well, since I can't believe I'm actually having this discussion in this country in 2007, feel free to stop explaining to me.
When I see out of control kids and I'm with my boys, I make them watch. I ask them questions like, How does that sound to you? and, Do you think that is nice? They always say the same thing. No it's not nice, they must not know Beltman. I have 4 and 5 year old boys. They know Daddy doesn't play games when it comes to crying, whining, and acting up for no reasons.
Who hits kids with belts nowadays? Spankings I can see, but with a belt? What an arsehole.
Quote from: MBF on April 22, 2007, 12:52:00 AMWho hits kids with belts nowadays? Spankings I can see, but with a belt? What an arsehole.Once again my boys know when I say Beltman it means spanking. They have never been spanked with a belt because there much too young. But you better believe in years to come, I will never refrain from using a belt if I must. They will get the same discipline I recieved as a child. When they need a spanking sometimes I tell them that Beltman is coming and they know they better straighten up. It is a tool a parent must use to garner fear and respect at a young age. I don't see eye to eye with someone who would suggest a different way of discipline. Non physical punishment doesn't hold any wieght with me. Never has, never will. If at age 11 or 12 my sons do something they know is wrong, like smoking or disrespecting Mommy, I wouldn't hesitate to whip his butt with a belt. Because I can. I gaurantee my boys will respect me as thier father first and thier buddy second.
I grab child by collar, and CRUSH THEM.
I've got your back, Bucjam.

Project at a glance
The forthcoming climate regime will include a global mechanism called REDD – Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation. Each developing country must draw up a Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHG Inventory) for its forestry sector in line with the guidance established by the UNFCCC Secretariat. Industrialised nations have already developed technical expertise on GHG Inventories which can be useful for the prospective REDD countries. The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has published guidance which provides methodologies to follow in order to achieve an inventory which is measurable, reportable and verifiable (MRV). The UNFCCC Secretariat has adopted this guidance as the basis on which it accepts GHG Inventory reports. Workshops and training at international, regional and national levels, alongside an online training course, will ensure that project participants can produce and report on GHG Inventories in their own country according to the relevant criteria. This is an important part of each country's preparation for the REDD mechanism. Training technical experts and decision-makers on GHG Inventory matters will ensure knowledge is shared and disseminated in the target countries. Even countries not currently joining the process could get involved later on.

Stocks Slammed by Rocky Start to Earnings Season
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The major U.S. equity averages finished sharply lower on Wednesday as the early results for third-quarter reporting season exacerbated investor worries about a slowing global economy.
Energy stocks were especially weak after oil giant Chevron (CVX) gave a gloomy financial update, and Alcoa (AA) was a significant drag as well after the company delivered a surprise quarterly profit but moderated its global aluminum demand forecast.
"Today has been pretty emblematic of what we've been seeing in the marketplace where we're dealing with two forces that are pushing against each other," said Leo Kelly, managing director at Hightower. "On one side we have really a questionable earnings period ... and Europe's still not out of the woods, Spain's pushing back on the ECB in terms of the timing of their bailout. On the other side you have QE3 and just an astounding amount of liquidity washing through the market that was already awash in liquidity."
"[W]e're definitely looking at tech, energy, materials, some of these more cyclical areas. Those are really going to tell us what is the impact of the global slowdown on the markets," said Kelly.The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell nearly 129 points, or 0.95%, to close at 13,345, its lowest finish since Sept. 12, the day before the Federal Reserve announced a third round of quantitative easing. Breadth was negative with losers far outpacing winners, 25 to 4, with Bank of America (BAC) finishing flat. Aside from Alcoa and Chevron, the biggest Dow decliners were Caterpillar (CAT), Cisco (CSCO), and Hewlett-Packard (HPQ). The top gainers were Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), McDonald's (MCD) and JPMorgan Chase (JPM). Chevron shares slumped 4.2% after the company said third-quarter earnings would be "substantially lower" than in the second quarter as oil production declined in the first two months of the quarter and it received a lower price from the sale of oil. The oil giant said production took a hit from a fire at its refinery in Richmond, Calif., and disruptions from Hurricane Isaac. Aluminum producer Alcoa -- the first Dow component to report each quarter -- kicked off the unofficial start of the third-quarter earnings season Tuesday with a surprise profit, helped by productivity improvements and strong sales. At the same time the company moderated its 2012 global aluminum demand forecast to 6%, down from 7%, as a slowdown in China slightly impacted its second half outlook. The stock closed down 4.6%. Home Depot (HD) was weak after Oppenheimer downgraded the stock on valuation concerns. Shares dropped 2%. Wal-Mart shares got a 1.7% boost after the world's largest retailer said it's testing same-day delivery for goods purchased online, presenting a threat Amazon's (AMZN) online business model. Amazon's stock fell 2.4%. The S&P 500 lost nearly 9 points, or 0.62%, to settle at 1433, while the Nasdaq slumped more than 13 points, or 0.43%, to finish at 3052. Both indices are also back at pre-QE3 levels. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq have each fallen in four straight sessions. The Nasdaq is now off 4.5% since hitting its intraday 52-week high of 3196.93 on Sept. 21.

Growing up in villages no larger than 800 people, Lima is quite the change for me. As I continue to cover stories and get to know the people of Lima, I hope to make this area home. Graduating from Elmwood High School in 2008, I entered Ohio Northern University as a Biology/Pre-Dentistry Major. After getting a taste of broadcasting through volunteer work at the campus station, I knew that I had to make a career change. This is one life decision I will never regret.
After completing my internship at WLIO during the summer of 2011, I had no idea that I would be coming back a short time later. Making WLIO my first broadcast job in my young career is something I look to make the most of.
Getting a job right out of college is more than I could have ever expected, and to come to a station that I fell in love with during my internship, makes this opportunity more than a dream come true.

Edwin van der Sar in the Manchester United goal has had to make his first save of the game here at Wembley, and it was a pretty good one too. The 40 year-old Dutch goalkeeper shouldn't have had to make any sort of save as Mario Balotelli picked up the ball in a fairly benign area of the pitch, but the volatile striker looked up, saw a chance, and unleashed a blistering long-range drive that van der Sar did well to tip over the crossbar. A series of Manchester City corners followed, and Joleon Lescott should probably have done better than volley well over when the ball dropped to him unmarked eight yards out. It's hard to blame him for not getting that one though, as defenders aren't really known for their aim on the volley.
Encouraging signs from City, however, who ten minutes ago were well and truly on the back foot. That's not to say that United aren't attacking, though - Joe Hart had to be very alert to snuff out a low cross as Nani smelled blood, and the winger also had a twenty yard attempt go wide of the post a minute or so later. We have a real game here now.

Sex Differentiation Begins During Early Development
Wed, 27 Aug 2014 14:04:57 +0000
Males and females look different from each other, and these sexual dimorphisms are the result, largely, of sex differences in the expression of certain genes. Typically, scientists have studied sexual dimorphism in sexually mature adult animals, as this is the lifestage where differences are most apparent. However, many sex-specific phenotypes arise from sex-biased development, so […]

We are in the grips of a mass extinction. There have been mass extinctions throughout evolutionary history, what makes this one different is that we're the ones causing it.

Parrish's defense gave up 457 yards rushing. Marion County's Dorryl Swanigan ran for 220 yards on the ground with three touchdowns and Peyton Wates gained 172 yards with two touchdowns.
The Red Raiders received the ball first and quickly marched down the field to take the lead. The extra point attempt was tipped at the line, making the opening score 6-0. Reginald Harris fumbled the ball away on Parrish's opening drive. Four plays later, Swanigan ran in from 32 yards out for his first score of the game. He then ran in the 2-point conversion.
Another Parrish drive led to another turnover, this time Jarrett Robertson's pass was intercepted by Joseph Wallace and returned it to the Tornado 26 yard line. The short field resulted in an 18-yard touchdown run by Swanigan to make it 21-0.
Both offenses exchanged turnovers, and Parrish was in position to score, but on a 4th-and-6 on the 18, the bad snap missed Robertson completely, resulting in a 16 yard loss and turnover on downs. A 53-yard run by Wates set up a deep corner touchdown pass from Aaron Pollard to Swanigan. Reginald Harris blocked the extra point attempt.
Marcus Harris caught the ensuing kickoff at the 9-yard line and ran it all the way back for a 91-yard touchdown to get the Tornadoes on the board. After receiving a 10-yard penalty on the extra-point attempt, Robertson hit Jaylan Clay for the 2-point conversion.
After the Red Raiders' next drive stalled on their own 39, Parrish blocked the punt and Bryant Thomas recovered the ball on the 5-yard line. However, the Tornadoes were not able to take advantage of the short field, coming inches short of the endzone.
Parrish punted the ball on their first drive after the half, but Swanigan fumbled the punt and R. Harris recovered at the 26-yard line. Three plays later, Robertson punched it in from 2 yards out. The extra point was blocked, leaving the score 27-14. Marion County started the 4th quarter with a 1-yard touchdown run by Wates, a failed two point conversion made it 33-14. Parrish quickly answered with a 4-play, 80-yard drive resulting in a 58-yard touchdown pass from Robertson to Bradley Piper. The 2-point conversion made it an 11 point game.
The Raiders' Swanigan again broke through, this time for a 63-yard touchdown run to make it 40-22. It appeared Parrish would answer again, but Swanigan intercepted Robertson's pass in the endzone and ran it back 100 yards for the final touchdown of the game.
Jarrett Robertson went 10 of 24 for 185 yards, two interceptions, and a touchdown.
Parrish (0-3, 0-2) hosts Berry next week in region play.

Reviews for Fudge Nut Brownies
Sort By :
These got rave reviews, I added about 1/2 cup of chocolate chunks to the batter.
Excellent recipe! It is a moist and melting in mouth recipe. I added rice crispies and cornflakes instead of nuts making it a healthy snack for the kids. They luv it!!
So good...my husband's comment after eating the first one: "These are prize-winning!" lol
These are the absolute best brownies!!! I left out the nuts though. I did them by hand. I mixed the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla together really well with a whisk (to break up clumps) 1st. Then whisked the cocoa (rounded 3/4 c.) in. The stirred in the rest of the dry,... I was very careful not to incorporate air in to the batter, as I hate cake-like brownies. Also, I used 1c. white flour and 1/3 whole wheat flour,.. you could not tell at all, next time I may try it with even more whole wheat flour.
It took 23 minutes in my preheated oven in a glass 13x9.
These were the perfect amount of sweet!
I use a combination of black cocoa with a little regular.
They were perfectly fudgy, but competely done! I have never found this perfect combination till now!!! I am going to copies of this, so I never lose it! :o)
I made them without nuts. Simple and delicious!

Vimael Machin hit a grand slam in the sixth inning to stake VCU to an 8-2 lead, and the Rams remained undefeated with an 11-6 victory over The Citadel in day two of the Charleston Crab House Shootout presented by Homewood Suites.
VCU is 7-0 and has scored 23 runs in its first two games of the tournament. The Bulldogs are 5-5 and play UNC Asheville in a doubleheader on Sunday beginning approximately 2:30.
UNC Asheville (4-5) has split its first two tournament games after downing Pittsburgh 5-4 in 10 innings in Saturday's first game. The Panthers (5-3) will play VCU on Sunday at 11 a.m.
The game was not one for the highlight video as The Citadel committed seven errors leading to five unearned runs for the Rams, walked seven batters and hit three others and left 14 runners on base. The contest lasted 3 hours, 37 minutes, just 15 minutes shy of the school record for longest nine-inning game.
Bill Cullen began the game with a home run against Bulldog starter James Reeves, his second leadoff round tripper in as many days, to help VCU jump out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the fourth.
Mason Davis scored on a balk in the third and Joe Jackson was hit by a pitch with the bases full an inning later to cut the Rams' lead in half. But VCU loaded the bases against Kevin Connell and Zach Sherrill in the fifth, and Machin cleared them with a shot over the scoreboard in left center to make it 8-2.
Tyler Buckley went the first five innings on the mound for the Rams, and The Citadel took advantage of reliever Logan Kanuik to climb back in the game in its half of the sixth.
Singles by Hughston Armstrong and Drew DeKerlegand and a walk to Davis loaded the bases with nobody out. Kanuik got the next two batters out unscathed before hitting Tyler Griffin to force in a run.
Johnathan Stokes reached on an infield single to drive in another run, and freshman Jason Smith got his first two collegiate RBI on a line drive single to center to match the VCU four-run sixth and pull the Bulldogs within 8-6.
That would be the closest The Citadel would get as Matt Lees shut the door over the next 3 ½ innings, allowing only two hits and striking out five to earn his fourth save of the season. Buckley surrendered three hits, walked five and struck out four to earn his first win as a Ram.
Reeves was lifted with two outs in the third after giving up four hits and four runs (two earned).
Davis and Smith both stole bases for the Bulldogs, keeping the team perfect in 14 attempts this season. Davis entered the game leading the Southern Conference in that category and is now 8-for-8 on the year.

CHICAGO, Ill. -- Governor Pat Quinn met with Democratic leaders on Monday to hash out a solution to Illinois' $100 billion pension crisis.
During the two-hour meeting of the minds, Quinn proposed combining the dueling Senate and House pension plans and letting the courts sort it out.
Senate President John Cullerton said he will reintroduce the legislation June 19.
House Speaker Mike Madigan, however, called on the Senate to pass the House plan.
"I think this is the time for the governor to step up and meet with Senate President Cullerton, meet with these senators one at at time and persuade them of the urgency of this vote for the House Pension bill in the Senate and vote for the House bill eliminating the free lunch for the universities and community colleges," said Madigan.
Cullerton says he is unsure if the combined legislation would have enough votes to pass.

The New York Islanders are one of those teams that's already been fairly active on the trade front this season. They've shipped out defenseman James Wisniewski for two draft picks and they traded goaltender Dwayne Roloson for a former first-round pick in Ty Wishart.
So, as the 2011 trade deadline approaches, could the Islanders be done moving already? The team has been much more respectable (don't tell folks in Pittsburgh that) over the last few months and Garth Snow might want to keep much of the young team in place to see how they fare over the remainder of the NHL season.
Status: Seller
Needs: The Islanders are still a rebuilding organization, so draft picks and young prospects are of utmost importance.
Players On The Block: Radek Martinek ($1.5 million), Rob Schremp ($750,750), Doug Weight ($1.15 million)
Prediction: The Islanders won't ship away half their team or anything, but Martinek can help a playoff team in need of a boost on the blueline. He'll be one guy to go at this deadline in a year where defensemen are extremely valuable.

Etheridge has suffered from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis for three years, and recently moved up on a lung transplant list. He currently uses an oxygen tank to help him breathe.
Up for grabs in the raffle is a Grasshopper Mowers riding lawn mower. It is a Model #124 with a 48" cutting deck and a 24 horsepower commercial engine, valued at $7,000.
Raffle tickets cost $20 and can be purchased at Lawn Performance, All American Fun Park and Fastenal Co. in Albany. Ticket holders do not need to be present to win.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This route is mentioned in the description of Prelude to King Kong. It is usually done as the second Pitch. It begins with a beautiful, steep, left-facing corner with a nice crack. The difficulty is around 5.9 here. After cranking up through the corner, there is a low-angled traverse to the right. Although the angle is less, the holds are much smaller. There are a few thin placements followed by a relatively committing move to gain easier ground above a large flake. Here, the difficulty seems to be around 5.9+. At the top, there are many large boulders and a few cracks to make an ultra-bomber anchor. Enjoy!
This route protects fairly well. The first part takes about a #1 or #2 Camalot in the corner. A few smaller cams (like #1 and #2 TCUs) and some medium to small nuts are also useful for the upper part of the pitch where the pro gets thiner.
