On the anniversary of the day Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball, FOX 32 News salutes two Chicago area men who know the story behind the new movie "42" very well.
Ray "Boo Boy" Knox and Nathan "Sonny" Weston know as well as anyone what Jackie Robinson meant to baseball and the country. They played in the Negro Leagues during the sport's historic period.
Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball 66 years ago on Monday. The film "42" reminds audiences of a brave and extraordinarily talented young man, and of a time when much of America wasn't ready for the country's past-time to be integrated.
Mayo Elementary on the South Side has their own mini-museum dedicated to the Negro Leagues, where guys like Jackie and thousands of others were forced to play before the doors to major league baseball opened.
Weston, 82, knows just about everyone featured in the exhibit photos. He played with Satchel Paige and met Jackie Robinson. Knox, 81, is another league veteran who remembers the day Robinson broke the changed the world of baseball like it was yesterday.
"The things he went through… he took it like a man," Knox said. "If he hadn't had the knowledge that he had, he wouldn't have made it through that."
The discrimination and outright hatred wasn't unknown to Knox and Weston. In some towns you couldn't even buy a sandwich and a diner. They both shared their experiences with their new-found fifth grade pals at Mayo elementary Miracle Neal and Darion McClure.
"Called me a name - told me get out," Weston said. "'You guys put all that food back on the table, get outta here.'"
The ugliness Weston described and the movie depictures can be difficult for an 11-year-old in the 21st century to fathom. The kids asked about the former players' emotional experiences when it came to the historic role they played in the world of baseball.
"I didn't cry," Knox said. "But you know… it hurt at times."
The overarching take-away for these kids from these baseball legends is as simple and powerful today as in 1947.
"You shouldn't judge people by their color," Weston said "Judge them by what they can do."
Weston lives in the far south suburbs these days, and Knox lives in Evanston. They are great guys – walking, talking history books. They love to talk to kids.

---- — DERRY — The crock pots were heaped full of favorites like baked beans, stews, and soups.
There was plenty to go around at the Church of the Transfiguration's community meal Aug. 12.
The church is one of a long list of area churches and organizations tapped into the Derry Community Meals Network, a mission to offer people in the area a free meal or one with only a minimal donation.
This year, the group will offer a Thanksgiving feast for anyone who wants to get out of the house and share the holiday with friends and family.
It's a mission to offer not only good food, but also fellowship.
Churches take turn putting their community meals on the schedule. Schools are also doing their part.
Lorrie Belinsky, assistant principal at West Running Brook Middle School, said she is part of the Meals Network committee and her school will host the first Thanksgiving feast this year.
West Running Brook has hosted its own free monthly spaghetti meals for about three years.
It's all about paying it forward, Belinsky said.
West Running Brook will ask parents for donations of boxed spaghetti throughout the year and any left over is donated to local food pantries.
Seeing people gather for fellowship and good food is heartwarming, she said.
"We get a good turnout," Belinsky said. "We don't put out a donation basket."
It's not just the free meal, but the friendship.
"They go for the fellowship, and just to sit their their friends for a while," Belinsky said.
She said donations will be welcome to help support the Thanksgiving meal. Since this is the first year, it will be a work in progress.
"We will have two seatings, with both the cafeteria and the gym set up," she said.
People who want to attend will need to get a ticket prior to the meal. Locations around town will have the tickets, including the municipal center and participating churches.
Belinsky said they are hoping to serve about 200 people on Thanksgiving Day.
The Thanksgiving meal will be held at West Running Brook Middle School on Nov. 22, There will be two seatings, 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m.
The Community Meals Network hopes to add more churches to its list of those opening their doors for free meals.
Volunteers and donations are welcome. To find out more about the Thanksgiving meal, email email@example.com. To make a monetary donation, send to Salvation Army, Thanksgiving, 18 Folsom Road, Derry, 03038.

Metro police are taking a different approach to fighting a type of crime they say is downright frustrating. No matter how carefully drivers are locking up their vehicles, thieves are still finding a way in.
Police are constantly having to come up with new ways to combat the crime, and they're now doing it with bicycles.
Typically, Sgt. Mike Thomas oversees West Precinct's student resource officers, but Monday he saddled up on two wheels.
The precinct is ramping up its bike patrol unit, putting more officers through cycling training and assigning more to each shift. During the fall break for Metro Schools, all of the SROs were on bike patrol.
"We look at the areas, statistics, hotspots, and we get into the areas where we're visible," Thomas said.
They are focusing on car break-ins - a frustrating crime of opportunity that is easy to commit.
"They're going to smash a window, open a door, take it out that quick and be gone," Thomas said.
But on bikes, the officers can blend in and be stealthy.
"People don't see us, and we can literally sneak up on them," Thomas said.
Plus, they're better able to get the word out about how to keep crooks out.
"If we see someone getting out of their car, we'll tell them, 'Hey, you may want to put that stuff out of sight,'" Thomas said. "The visibility is priceless, because if one person sees us and gets word to other people, and they know we're out there, then they are going to stay away from that area."
The student resource officers say their ability to interact with kids outside of school also helps in another way. The kids recognize the officers and get the message that just because they aren't in school, doesn't mean the police aren't watching.

An Iowa City man says another man tried to stab him outside his garage on Friday morning.
A man told police that he was smoking in his garage at around 6:17 a.m. Friday when he heard someone banging on the front door of his home. When he walked out of the garage to see who was at the door, he says another man tried to slash and stab him with a knife.
The victim says he was able to dodge the knife and punch the other man in the face. He says the suspect then ran from the area.
The victim says he did not know the suspect and the suspect didn't say anything during the attack.
The suspect is described as a 30-year-old black male with a bald head, medium build and no facial hair. He was wearing a white t-shirt and possibly jeans.
The victim did receive a scrape from the knife on his stomach.

The nature of majority–minority relations in society are explored with a focus on the causes and consequences of prejudice, discrimination and racism, with special attention on the increasing importance of institutionalized racism in contemporary American society. Attention is also paid to how race relations have changed over time and the differences in the experiences of immigrant and racial minorities. Studies on race relations are explored from a variety of theoretical perspectives. Freshmen and Sophomores only.
Mode of Inquiry: Understanding Society.
This course provides the flexibility to offer introductory topics of interest in American Ethnic Studies. The course may study a particular topic within American Ethnic Studies, or offer a survey of topics within American Ethnic Studies. Prerequisite: Closed to junior and seniors, except by consent of instructor.
This course examines the historical, political and social dynamics of race and ethnicity in the United States. It investigates the creation and effects of these social concepts on the experiences, identities and relations of various peoples, as well as the culture and structures of society. The course will focus on the various ways race and ethnicity are recreated in society, particularly by the media, and the way these "social constructions" perpetuate privilege and social inequality. It will critically investigate the myths and contradictions of race and ethnicity, and will attempt to understand what purposes they serve in a "color-bound" contemporary U.S. society. Understanding Society.
Prerequisite: Freshmen and Sophomores only or consent of instructor.
This course offers a survey of the dynamic, changing cultures of Native North America, from the time of the first peopling of the continent to the present day.

Mode of Inquiry: Thinking Historically; Understanding Society; Indigenous Peoples and Cultures Cluster
Prerequisite: ANTH 150 recommended.
This course is a historical-critical survey of the public discourse of Latino/Latinas in the United States from colonial times to the present. As such, we will focus significantly on such issues as language, establishment of identities, civil rights, immigration, the formation of communities, political participation, and cultural assimilation. In order to accomplish our task we will study the historical context of the discourse, prominent rhetors, and various pieces of discourse. Analyzing the environment out of which discourse springs, contributors to voice, and the arguments, styles, themes, and issues articulated is crucial for understanding Latino/Latina voices in the United States. This course will also count toward the Rhetoric and Media Studies major.
Mode of Inquiry: Analyzing Arguments, Reasons, and Values and Interpreting Texts
This seminar is designed to introduce students to the field of museum anthropology and to the theoretical and practical dimensions of museum studies. As an applied research experience, it offers the opportunity to do hands-on work with the Native American collection and exhibition program at the Hallie Ford Museum of Art. Topics include the application of contemporary anthropological theory to work in museums, particularly in terms of issues of cultural representation, ethics, fieldwork, and museum display. Students will learn and apply skills in collections and archival management, exhibition development, and museum public programming.
Prerequisites: ANTH 231 or ANTH 351, and consent of instructor
In this course, students will become familiar with the theoretical and methodological approaches in the interdisciplinary and evolving field of Ethnic Studies. It examines the key theories and methods that give voice to the realities of people of color, as well as group relations and resistance to inequality. This course analyzes the major theoretical paradigms for understanding race and ethnicity, evaluating the strengths and limitations for each framework in helping to bring about social change. It also explores and utilizes the methods of social science, recognizing the role, contribution and imitations of scientific inquiry for interpreting social reality. Other epistemological approaches will be assessed to determine what they bring to bare on empirical realities.

No, you can't imagine it:
- Whilst kept in Holloway prison, Melissa has been asked to say good bye to her son over videolink – by a local authority who has made up a big story about her and managed not only to put her into prison but now locked up on a 24-hour basis and drugged against her will…
- Gloria Musa has had to undergo an 'adjudication' where she asked for our help as McKenzie Friends, but that would require 'prior arrangement' – which was perfectly impossible to arrange.
The humiliation that Gloria has to endure, instead of living her usual life as a happy family serving God and Christian communities, is horrendous.
However, we have not only launched an Association of McKenzie Friends, we have also joined forces with two charities that have ample experience with making life easier for prisoners: Spurgeons and Women in Prison.
More on our latest press release regarding the Musas and their six kidnapped children. It refers to our letter to Sir Nicholas Wall, the President of the Family Division, in the hope that he'll sort things out.

Medicine and dentistry are demanding careers that require arduous preparation. The three phases of training usually include: four years of undergraduate work at a college or university leading to a B.A. or B.S. degree; four years of study at a medical or dental school culminating in an M.D. or D.D.S. degree; and additional years of graduate training for certification in specialized areas.
Towson University is a comprehensive university, which provides the opportunity for all students to obtain a liberal education and to gain knowledge and skills applicable to specific career choices. A minimum of 120 credit hours is required for graduation. This includes a series of General Education (GenEd) requirements and completion of a major (approximately 36 credit hours) in one academic discipline. Most Pre-Medical and Pre-Dental students major in biology, chemistry or physics. However, other majors may be selected if the basic science requirements for admission to a professional school are met. These basic requirements are usually at least eight credit hours in general chemistry, organic chemistry, physics and biology. Some medical schools also require calculus.
The Department of Biological Sciences has a very informative document titled Advice and Guidelines for TU Pre-Medical Students.

The movie no doubt is awesome but my question is more on the blu ray actually. The back of the case talks about lot of special features but I couldnt find many of them especially the Making of the movie in the blu ray. Anyone else feels the same? My rating is more on the disc than the movie.
Display is not sharp and crisp as should be in a blu ray 1080p. Sound is good. Movie is a classic. Great bonus features.
What an epic! All aspects of the film are so authentic & intense that you actually feel that history is being unfolded in front of your own eyes in your television screens. Mel Gibson's cry of 'freedom' during the movie's end will send a shiver down your spine! The video quality is outright brilliant for a film with such a bland & limited color palette to display. Apart from the epic battle scenes, the audio quality boasts superb clarity & depth during dialogues too.
P.S.- Excel should take responsibility for providing false informations about the special features in the back... (Expand)
Awesome movie,set a benchmark for other action movies to follow,mainly in the battlefield sequences.Mel Gibson was perfect in all the departments.The only niggle was FLIPKART took time to ship the product.If not FIVE stars!!
Braveheart Is Simply And Undoubtedly 'THE BEST Epic Movie' Of All Time Or Perhaps 'THE BEST MOVIE'Of All Time.
You Don't Know About Cinema If You Missed 'Braveheart',Battle Sequences,Music,Photography,Acting,Direction Everything IS BEYOND EXCELLENT.
Gibson's Braveheart A PURE GENIUS CLASSIC.

LAWRENCE — The 18-year-old Methuen man accused yesterday of making generalized terroristic threats on Facebook was ordered held without bail at his arraignment in district court this morning.
Cameron Dambrosio, 19 Glen Ave., Methuen, was arrested in Methuen yesterday afternoon and charged with making terroristic threats after a student reported "alarming" language on his Facebook page to school officials, Police Chief Joseph Solomon said yesterday.
Dambrosio, wearing a black t-shirt, gray sweatpants and blue sneakers, was shackled and handcuffed in court. He did not speak. A probable cause hearing was scheduled for May 9.
A clerk magistrate set his bail yesterday after his arrest at $1 million. Making a terroristic threat is a felony with a prison sentence of between three and 20 years, according to state law.
Solomon said the comments Dambrosio posted on his Facebook page were not aimed at specific people or targets, but threatened general violence.
"(Expletive) the Boston bombing, wait til you see what I do. I'm going to be famous," Solomon said Dambrosio wrote. "And (Dambrosio wrote) he's going to beat every murder charge brought against him."

ROCHESTER, MINNESOTA -- The Toaster Collectors Association is meeting in Rochester, Minnesota.
To them, toasters are the best thing since sliced bread.
Sliced bread, by the way, has been around since 1930, by Wonderbread.
The Toaster Collectors Association documents, conserves and restores toast-making devices.
Just so this isn't some silly story...here are true facts: "toastum" is latin for "burned' or "singed."
The first successful electric toaster was produced in 1909.
In 1919, a pop-up toaster was parented, but the first successful production model didn't show up until 1925.
In 2001, an English College Student created a toaster that printed the weather forecast ---and last year, a Georgia Tech Student designed a device which would toast the exact shade of brown specified by the user.

Troels Volver, CEO of Martin Professional, Inc., is celebrating his ten-year anniversary at Martin Professional, with over six of those years at the helm of Martin US.
Troels, a Danish native, started at Martin's international headquarters in Aarhus, Denmark in 1994 when the company looked much different than it does today. Back then he led an international sales department made up of only a handful of people. "No one would argue that this company has changed dramatically in the past ten years," Volver stated. "Products, philosophy, attitude, it's all different. Back then we were a 'fly by the seat of the pants' company, a scanners and smoke machine company - we didn't even have MACs to sell. Today, we've developed into a mature player in this industry with a strong corporate identity and strong corporate culture that is customer focused."
Things accelerated quickly for Martin in the mid-90s with the addition of regional sales managers, an expanding distributor network and large yearly increases in sales. Volver moved to Singapore in 1996 where his stint as managing director of Martin Singapore was characterized by strong sales growth. In January of 1998 he moved to the US office where he has led a dramatic expansion of Martin US, nearly tripling sales turnover since 1998 as Martin Professional's largest subsidiary.
And what about the celebration? Volver doesn't make a big deal of it, preferring a quiet toast with his US team. "A couple of beers and some pizza," he says.

Quote from: Mt Spokane Photography link=topic=14183.msg256445#msg256445
Have you used it?.
yes... and if the OS did not see the card it will do nothing.
And, last, once a card has gone tits-up like this, I'd never trust it again. If I could get a refund or replacement, fantastic. If not, I'd just toss it, write it off, and move on. Part of the cost of the business.

Computer Updates
Why you need to update your computer
Patches and Service Packs correct weaknesses in your software. Installing these fixes will help keep your system better protected from viruses, worms, and other attacks. Patches mustbe kept up-to-date to ensure the safety of your system and the University network. Check websites frequently for the software you run on your computer: you may need new patches (The websites for Microsoft and Apple are listed below).
How to update your computer
I can never remember...
I'm too busy, I don't have time...
If you use these excuses to avoid updating your computer, you can stop making excuses for yourself and just turn on automatic updates! This should make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside because it's as if the software designers finally heard your cries for help. The directions for how to turn on automatic updates for Microsoft and Mac users are below.
For general software updates, see the following websites:
- To automatically receive updates:
- Click Start, then click Control Panel.
- If you use the Classic Control Panel view:
- Click System, then click the Automatic Updates tab
- Click Performance and Maintenance, then click System, then click the Automatic Updates tab.
- Click the option that you want. Make sure that Automatic Updates is not turned off.
To download manually:
- Check to see if your system is up to date using the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer
- Go to the Microsoft Download Center to obtain updates (Unless there is an urgent update that can't wait, Microsoft generally releases patches on the first Tuesday of every month).
To schedule to automatically receive updates:
- The Software Update preference pane lets you schedule automatic checks for updates. It should be set to automatically check by default. Here, you can change the check interval from weekly to daily or monthly
To download manually:
- Go to Apple Downloads to obtain updates.
To update immediately on your computer:
Click the Apple Menu, then click System Preferences.
TIP - If you have Mac OS X 10.3 or later, there's a shortcut. Choose Software Update from the Apple menu instead, then skip ahead to Step 4.
- From the View Menu, click Software Update.
- Click Check Now or Update Now.
- In the Software Update Menu, select the items you want to install, then click Install.
- Enter an administrator account name and password.
- After the update is complete, restart the computer if required.
- Repeat these steps to see if more updates are now available. Because some software updates are prerequisites for others, you may need to repeat these steps several times to complete the software update sequence.
- Click the Apple Menu, then click System Preferences.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"The card stock was good quality, we ordered the shimmer paper with the scalloped edges which made the invite all the prettier. Would recommend the white envelopes if using matching return address stickers and address labels. I ordered the gold envelopes which looked very nice with the invitation but after putting the stamp, return address label and addressed labels on gold envelope it looked tacky."
"Paper quality was beyond what I expected. The color of the card was so rich - opening the plastic that covered them, I actually scratched one of the cards down to white. The only suggestion I would have is that there be someplace to mention the groom's name. I didn't notice that until I was addressing the cards to people who might not know this young lady's future husband."
"I ordered the teal color for a bridal shower and everyone said they were the most beautiful invitations they had ever seen! I, also, ordered the matching return address labels and recipe cards. Loved everything! I'm giving another shower for another bride later this summer and will be back here to order again!"
"I ordered these along with the recipe cards for my sister's bridal shower. I like size, and colors. I ended up using the chat line to discover the fitted rectangular envelopes so I wouldn't have to pay for extra postage (only wished they came in different colors besides white) Only problem I had was with putting my return address on envelopes, vs. address on invitations, site kept wanting to make it the same which it wasn't, which is why I'm glad I used the professional review. She called me and emailed me since she found the error! Which made me very happy."
"Easy to make them look good. I am not savey on line. they made it easy for me to look GOOD. They were perfect amd I will use you always!!!!"

---- — MORRISVILLE — You wouldn't think Plattsburgh State's goalie would be a key player in game in which the Cardinals won 7-1 and owned the shots 56-16.
But Plattsburgh coach Bob Emery said Mathieu Cadieux made the difference in the second period Friday, and then the Cardinals broke open the game in the third for a SUNY Athletic Conference men's hockey victory over Morrisville.
"We had another bad second period, and if it wasn't for our goalie I think things would've have been different heading into the third period," Emery said. "We were very fortunate that it was 3-1 after two periods. We played well in the first period, played well in the third, but we had a bad second period."
Cadieux made 15 saves — 10 in the second period — and Alex Jensen led Plattsburgh offensively with a goal and two assists. The Cardinals (5-0-1, 5-0-1 SUNYAC) and Mustangs (1-5-1, 1-5-1) will match up again tonight.
As has been the trend this season, the Cardinals got off to a hot start and then allowed their opponent to push back in second period. Dillan Fox and Jensen scored less than two minutes apart, and Luke Baleshta's short-handed tally late in the first gave Plattsburgh a 3-0 lead.
The Mustangs answered with a short-handed goal by Josh Baker early in the second and put 11 shots on goal in the period after just four in the opening frame.
"I was just happy to get out of the second period," Emery said. "They took it to us. They had some great chances. But with a goalie like Chewy there for you, like one of the assistant coaches said, it masks everything. He can mask all of our mistakes."
Emery added that after taking the early lead, the Cardinals stopped focusing on defense first and started turning the puck over.
The floodgates opened in the third.
Ryan Farnan put their lead back to three at 8:17 of the third, and Connor Gorman added another goal just over four minutes later. Mark Constantine and Adam Scuglia also scored before the period ended.
"In the third period we were able to get that three-goal lead back, and I think that took the wind out of Morrisville's sails," Emery said.
Morrisville took 12 penalties in the third period, including bench penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct and game misconduct. The Mustangs totaled 38 penalty minutes.
Farnan and Scuglia both got into the scoring column after lengthy droughts. Scuglia, who played sparingly the last two seasons, scored a goal for the first time since late 2011, while Farnan found the net for the first time since early 2012. Farnan also earned an assist Friday.
Defenseman Barry Roytman had two helpers for Plattsburgh, and Fox also finished the night with two points.
Christopher Azzano turned away 49 shots for the Mustangs.

GREENSBURG – First Baptist Church will be hosting a live simulcast with celebrated Bible teacher and speaker Beth Moore Sept. 14.
The event will start with check-in and a continental breakfast at 8:45 a.m. The simulcast, which will be presented on a large screen and shown via internet, will feature Moore speaking. Moore is known for her best-selling Bible study books, as well as her books for women.
Moore has been involved with the church since her early life and learned to love storytelling as a child in her father's movie theater. She discovered that she loved all aspects of storytelling, telling them, writing them, and having them told to her. Though the stories captured her imagination, the one that captured her heart was the story of Jesus.
Beth is often called a woman of purpose, preparation, prayer and passion. Blessed with a lifelong love of the Lord, Beth founded Living Proof Ministries in 1994 with the purpose of teaching women how to love and live on God's word. Since founding Living Proof Ministries, her teachings have expanded across the world, reaching out to people in many different countries, sharing God's word and uplifting women all over the globe.
Roughly 250,000 women around the world will be tuning in to view Moore's live simulcast on the 14th. Any women interested are invited to register for the event and come together for a Saturday of worship and anointed Bible teaching that will leave them refreshed and spiritually recharged.
The simulcast will start at 9:30 a.m. and will last until 4:30 p.m. Tickets are available at a cost of $15 and participants will be expected to provide their own lunches. Lifeway Christian Resources, a Nashville based publishing company, sponsors the Living Proof Live Simulcast. Through the simulcast, Beth is able to share her passionate Bible teachings and dynamic storytelling with people all over the world.

There is a lot on the line when the Iowa Hawkeyes and Nebraska Cornhuskers meet for the third annual heroes game on black Friday at memorial stadium in Lincoln. The Hawkeyes will be playing for their eighth win of the season and could move into a tie with Nebraska for second place in the legends division. The Huskers have won the first two heroes games--including a 13-7 win over the hawks last year at Kinnick. And the Hawks are looking for their first win over the huskers in 32 years...in a series in which Nebraska has won five straight. Iowa players and coaches know they have their work cut out for them especially at memorial stadium . The Hawkeyes will be looking for their first win in Lincoln in 70 years.
Iowa head coach Kirk Ferentz said, "My problem is it's kinda been one sided in recent history we were 1 for four. And its probably the kind of rivalry they like and it's our job to try and do something about that , that's what we got to do."
Iowa Quarterback Jake Rudock said, "Well it's never easy going another teams stadium, especially Nebraska their fans are crazy you know I've been there before and they get after it. They'll be loud and ready to go and I think just understand we can handle the environment but not saying hey because we've been here before we can do it again."
The Hawkeyes and Huskers kick it off around 11 Friday morning from Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Good sleep habits are essential for living a long, healthy, productive life. But sleep is equally important for beautiful, healthy skin. "Beauty" sleep is not just an old wives' tale. Sleep allows the skin to restore its natural balance and increases the effectiveness of certain skin care ingredients, potentially providing more benefit to your skin. When you don't get enough sleep, your skin will show it. Eyes look dark and puffy after even a single night of poor sleep, but chronic sleep deprivation is particularly damaging. It leads to a dull, dehydrated complexion and can wreak havoc on skin prone to acne.
How does sleep save skin?
Medical research has demonstrated sleep affects the skin in a variety of ways:
The bottom line is that sleep is vital for healthy (and beautiful) skin. To develop good sleeping habits, try these tips:

OverviewLocated in Cleveland, Ohio, Cleveland Clinic is a non-profit, multispecialty academic medical Center that integrates clinical and hospital care with research and education. Cleveland Clinic was founded in 1921 by four renowned physicians with a vision of providing outstanding patient care based upon the principles of cooperation, compassion and innovation. Today, with more than 1,300 beds, Cleveland Clinic is one of the largest and most respected hospitals in America.
Key RequirementsPaging is a critical communication channel for Cleveland Clinic, with more than 55,000 pages sent per day. "As we started looking at ways to revamp and improve the coordination of care with paging, our main criteria was a highly reliable IVR system. Lives are on the line if the paging system is not working properly, and hospitals run 24x7. We were also looking for something easy to learn and support as our current programming staff needed to be able to build and maintain the system. Vendor support and responsiveness is the third critical criteria for the mission critical applications we were looking to use the IVR platform for" stated Robert Lemon, Lead Systems Analyst.
Application DetailsThe development team at Cleveland Clinic used Velocity to build an in-house paging system that allows pages to be redirected to other devices, announces an alternate contact for emergencies, and gives caregivers the ability to manage their availability to be paged. Status can be changed either over the phone, or over the web.The IVR application took approximately 10 days to build and test. The team had estimated that it would take 3 months but the powerful Velocity SDK dramatically reduced the development time. "The supplied examples and superb and responsive technical support really helped get our team going. We have an internal team of 4 developers that were supposed to be working on the application, it took 1 just an hour to get the first prototype up and running and just a few days before the application was working full featured. We had also budgeted dollars for bringing in external help that was not required" stated Robert Lemon.
BenefitsCleveland Clinic were able to turn what they had expected to be a 3 months development project around in 10 days. They were able to build their application with fewer resources and without hiring in any external expertise. The financial saving alone is staggering, however, the staff at Cleveland Clinic are very clear that the real benefit of their Velocity based application is its positive impact on Patient Safety.
Why Velocity™ ? - From a Customers Perspective"First it was chosen because it was a .NET API, you could try it for free and see if it meets your needs, I think it took us longer to evaluate all of the IVR development packages than it did to write our application!The technical support staff at Glorsoft is amazing, they were very responsive, I don't think I every talkedwith them directly just via email but the turnaround was fast. Questions were answered with useful examples,new features were added when we found something we needed that was not already in the product. Glorsoft has the best technical support of any company that I ever worked with, hands down the best!"Robert Lemon, Lead Systems Analyst.
In closing, we asked Cleveland Clinic to comment on their experience of using the actual Velocity SDK to which they stated it is "amazingly simple to use and very powerful. Very intuitive even for someone that has never done IVR application programming before". The Velocity IVR Development Toolkit is available to download free of charge at www.glorsoft.com

GDP 'Good News' Sparks Bond Buying & Stock Selling, Treasury Curve Crumbles FurtherSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/28/2014 - 09:00
US GDP beat expectations 'proving' that government data shows the recovery meme is on track (as long as it doesn't snow ever again). The market's reaction... intriguing - stocks shrugged even as a USDJPY pump tried to get things going; gold and silver moved modestly higher; and Treasury yields... fell notably at the long end. 30Y is now trading with a 3.06% handle and 5s30s is back below 145bps...!

Q2 GDP Revision Unexpected Rises On Alleged Jump In Capex To Highest Since 2011Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/28/2014 - 08:44
Following the unexpected surge in Q2 GDP, which beat most analyst estimates, there was widespread expectation that based on real-time data, the revised Q2 print would be worse. So perhaps it is appropriate that the Bureau of Economic Analysis punked everyone once again, when moments ago it released the first revision to the Q2 GDP print, which instead of dropping to the consensus expected 3.9%, it instead rose to 4.2%, up from the 4.0% initial report.

Initial Jobless Claims Drop Back Under 300k, Continuing Claims RiseSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/28/2014 - 08:37
"Slack" or "no slack" - initial claims tumbling along the bottom of the lowest levels in a decade suggest the US economy's job creation is as good as it gets. Initial claims was stable at 298k (vs expectations of 300k) down very small from the 299k adjusted data for last week. Continuing claims rose 25k on the week and missed expectations but also continues to tread water at the lowest levels since 2007.

Ukraine Accuses Russia Of Launching Invasion, Then Promptly RetractsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/28/2014 - 07:24
Ukraine accused Russia on Thursday of mounting an invasion in the southeast of the country in support of pro-Moscow separatist rebels. Ukraine's security and defense council said the border town of Novoazovsk and other parts of Ukraine's south-east had fallen under the control of Russian forces who together with rebels were staging a counter-offensive. "A counter-offensive by Russian troops and separatist units is continuing in south-east Ukraine," the council said in a post on Twitter. ... and then everything was promptly denied: CORRECTED-UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT POROSHENKO SAYS RUSSIAN TROOPS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT INTO UKRAINE (NOT 'RUSSIAN MILITARY INVASION HAS TAKEN PLACE')

If you like your de-escalation, you can keep your de-escalation. To think that heading into, and following the Russia-Ukraine "summit" earlier this week there was so much hope that the tense Ukraine civil war "situation" would somehow fix itself. Oh how wrong that thinking was considering overnight, following rebel separatists gains in the southeast of Ukraine which included the strategic port of Novoazvosk and which is "threatening to open up a new front in the war" including setting up a land corridor to Russia controlled-Crimea, Ukraine's president Poroshenko for the first time came out and directly accused Russia of an "Invasion", or at least a first time in recent weeks, saying he has convened the security council on the recent Russian actions.

The Nail In The Petrodollar Coffin: Gazprom Begins Accepting Payment For Oil In Ruble, YuanSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 - 22:57
According to Russia's RIA Novosti, citing business daily Kommersant, Gazprom Neft has agreed to export 80,000 tons of oil from Novoportovskoye field in the Arctic; it will accept payment in rubles, and will also deliver oil via the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean pipeline (ESPO), accepting payment in Chinese yuan for the transfers. Meaning Russia will export energy to either Europe or China, and receive payment in either Rubles or Yuan, in effect making the two currencies equivalent as far as the Eurasian axis is conerned, but most importantly, transact completely away from the US dollar thus, finally putin'(sic) in action the move for a Petrodollar-free world.

"Valuation Is The Market's Biggest Headwind"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 - 21:24
Yesterday, as the S&P closed above 2,000 for the first time, mainstream media pundits were trotted out to proclaim that either "stocks are 'fairly' valued" or "stocks are cheap" and the "money on the sidelines" must come in now. Aside from the 'idiocy' of the last comment, we thought BMO's Jack Ablin's comments were of note. "Valuation is the market's biggest headwind," he wrote, adding that sales "have to catch up" for stocks to sustain the rally. One glimpse at the following chart and it is clear that not only are stocks "not cheap" or "not fair" they are extremely rich with the only fall-back now being that "they're not as expensive as they were at the top of the biggest bubble in stocks ever." Seems like BTFATH makes perfect sense in that light...

Bombs Away! Washington Has Gone Stark Raving MadSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 - 20:53
Exactly one year ago Obama proposed to take Bashir al-Assad to the woodshed because he had allegedly unleashed a vicious chemical attack on his own citizens. That was all pretext, of course, because even the CIA refused to sign-off on the flimsy case for Assad's culpability at the time - a reluctance corroborated since then by the considerable evidence that hundreds of Syrian civilians were murdered during a false flag operation staged by the rebels with help from Turkey. Now the White House is threatening to bomb Syria again. Washington should call off the bombers and get out of harm's way. The American Imperium has failed and the prospect of bombing both sides of an irrelevant non-country's ancient tribal wars ought, at last, to make that much clear.

What The Next Gold Confiscation Will Look LikeSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 - 19:51
You may be familiar with the story of how the US government confiscated gold bullion and then made owning it illegal back in 1933. Actually this event is more accurately termed a nationalization. Americans were forced under harsh penalties to sell their gold at an artificially low "official price." Many have speculated that the US government could once again turn to gold confiscation/nationalization if it became desperate enough. But would the US government really turn to a 1933-style grab again? We would argue that they wouldn't, but that doesn't mean the threat to your gold has diminished. Quite the opposite.

Militarized Schooling? "Newtown Was A Nuclear Bomb That Changed Everything"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/27/2014 - 19:25
The following sign on the grass in front of a Texas school sums up where we are with the militarization of education in America. As WSJ reports, public schools nationwide are greeting students for the fall term with a host of new security measures including adding armed guards, giving guns to employees, installing perimeter fencing, and bulletproof glass. "It's kind of the way of the world, unfortunately," notes one parent, but bulking up on security has led some parents and experts to question how it affects students. The idea of "hardening" schools against intruders took on urgency after Dec 2012: "Newtown was a nuclear bomb that changed the whole landscape of everything."

WEST MONROE, La. -- Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum says the shooting of an unarmed teenager in an Orlando, Fla., suburb was "horrible" and that the case is, in his words, a "chilling example of the horrible decisions made by people in this process."
Seventeen-year-old Trayvon Martin was fatally shot Feb. 26 while walking through a neighborhood in the suburb of Sanford.
The admitted shooter, George Zimmerman, 28, has claimed self-defense and invoked Florida's' "Stand Your Ground" law. The law gives people wide latitude to use deadly force instead of retreating during a fight, and explains why Zimmerman has not been arrested.
Said Santorum: "Stand your ground is not doing what this man did."
But when asked if the Justice Department should investigate, Santorum said that should be left to local and state authorities.
Barack Obama
"If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon," President Obama said. "I think [Trayvon's parents] are right to expect that all of us as Americans are going to take this with the seriousness it deserves, and we are going to get to the bottom of exactly what happened."
Newt Gingrich
Newt Gingrich told Piers Morgan that the Trayvon Martin case was tragic, and that he didn't believe the shooting would be covered by Florida's Stand Your Ground law. "I think Americans can recognize that while this is a tragedy -- and it is a tragedy -- that we're going to relentlessly seek justice, and I think that's the right thing to do," Gingrich said. Asked about the Stand Your Ground law, he said, "The young man apparently was not following the person who's being investigated. Apparently, the shooter was following the young man. That's not a stand your own ground, that's a chase the other person into their ground. And I think you're going to find the law, as interpreted normally, doesn't apply to this case."
Allen West
Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) condemned the killing of Trayvon Martin, but cautioned against making the case a racial issue. Below, his full statement as posted on Facebook:
I have sat back and allowed myself time to assess the current episode revealing itself in Sanford, Florida involving the shooting of 17-year-old Treyvon Martin. First of all, if all that has been reported is accurate, the Sanford Police Chief should be relieved of his duties due to what appears to be a mishandling of this shooting in its early stages. The US Navy SEALS identified Osama Bin Laden within hours, while this young man laid on a morgue slab for three days. The shooter, Mr Zimmerman, should have been held in custody and certainly should not be walking free, still having a concealed weapons carry permit. From my reading, it seems this young man was pursued and there was no probable cause to engage him, certainly not pursue and shoot him....against the direction of the 911 responder. Let's all be appalled at this instance not because of race, but because a young American man has lost his life, seemingly, for no reason. I have signed a letter supporting a DOJ investigation. I am not heading to Sanford to shout and scream, because we need the responsible entities and agencies to handle this situation from this point without media bias or undue political influences. This is an outrage.

Mitt Romney
"What happened to Trayvon Martin is a tragedy. There needs to be a thorough investigation that reassures the public that justice is carried out with impartiality and integrity," Mitt Romney said in a statement.
Rick Santorum
Rick Santorum said the shooting was "horrible" and a "chilling example of the horrible decisions made by people in this process." "Stand Your Ground is not doing what this man did," Santorum said, adding that he believes the Justice Department should leave the matter to local and state authorities.
Rick Scott
Florida Governor Rick Scott (R) said a state task force would review Florida's Stand Your Ground law and recommend changes "so that we might help avoid such tragedies in the future."
Frederica Wilson
Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.) denounced shooter George Zimmerman as "a renegade wannabe policeman neighborhood watchman." "Mr. Speaker, I am tired of burying young black boys," Wilson said during a speech on the House floor. "I am tired of watching them suffer at the hands of those who fear them and despise them. I am tired of comforting mothers, fathers, grandparents, sisters and brothers after such unnecessary, heinous crimes of violence."
Condoleezza Rice
"Well, first of all, it's a great tragedy," Condoleezza Rice told Andrea Mitchell. "This young man has been deprived of life and that's an enormous tragedy. And we all should have prayers and for his family and for those who are left behind. So it's a great tragedy. That's the first thing to say. Secondly, I've always said that obviously, we are not a race blind society. We aspire to be one, we work toward it, we've gotten better, but we are not yet. But I'm not going to comment on the legal aspects of this case because as I understand it, the Justice Department is looking into it, local authorities are looking into it, and I certainly hope that justice will be done here and due process accorded. But I'm not going to comment on the legal aspects of this. I'm not competent to do so."
Mitch McConnell
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) called the shooting an "incredible tragedy," but declined to comment on the "Stand Your Ground" law. "It is an incredible tragedy of huge proportions," he said. "I'm glad it's being investigated and we'll take a look at it as the investigation moves along."
Harry Reid
"The killing of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy, and nothing will bring him back," Senate Majority Harry Reid (D-Nev.) wrote in a statement. "But there remain unanswered questions surrounding his death, and I applaud Attorney General Eric Holder for opening an investigation. Trayvon and his family deserve nothing less, and my thoughts are with them in this unimaginably difficult time. Any single incident where an unarmed civilian is gunned down is one too many, but sadly, similar incidents have occurred in other states, including in Nevada. I trust the Justice Department and law enforcement at all levels will provide the justice that Trayvon's loved ones and our country deserve."
