Valdosta - South Georgians are headed to the state capital for a night of networking with legislators.
Valdosta city and Lowndes County leaders left Wednesday morning for the annual Bird Supper in Atlanta. About 1,000 state and community leaders are expected to attend.
The event is held each year to give legislators an idea of the issues important to this area. Community leaders say they have a number of concerns they'll voice Wednesday night. "The sales tax holiday is a big one, we also have what we call a glitch in unemployment insurance which is really clarifying attendance as a reason for dismissal. It's really affecting a lot of our manufacturers across the state," said Jeff Hanson, Governmental Affairs Committee Chair.
The Bird Supper is hosted by Lowndes County, the City of Valdosta, and the Valdosta-Lowndes Chamber of Commerce.

Healthcare CIO Mindmap
Written by: John Lynn
During HIMSS, Citius Tech put out this great image they called the Healthcare CIO Mindmap. It's a beautiful display of everything that's happening in healthcare IT. Although, it's also an illustration of the challenge we and hospital CIOs face. Is it any wonder that so many hospital CIOs feel overwhelmed?
Enjoy the Healthcare CIO Mindmap in all its glory below (Hint: Click on the image to see the full graphic):
I think that image is enough for anyone to chew on for one day. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

Police continue investigating into more than a dozen auto burglaries in Franklin.
The break-ins occurred over the last two weeks during the overnight hours.
"We've had upwards of a dozen auto burglaries in apartment complexes, subdivisions, places where there are a lot of cars concentrated in small areas," said Lt. Charles Warner with the Franklin Police Department.
In each of the cases, the vehicles were left unlocked overnight and the valuables left inside were stolen.
"The number one thing that we tell people to prevent becoming this type of victim is to simply take your valuables in with you or lock your door," Warner said. "If you don't do one of those two things, what those thieves see will soon be theirs."
Franklin Police are circulating a crime alert to remind residents to lock their doors and how to share information anonymously.
If you have any information about the crimes, call Williamson County Crime Stoppers at (615) 794-4000.

It went beyond being not pretty at American Airlines Center Saturday night. It was ugly for the Dallas Stars, who were routed 8-1 by the Chicago Blackhawks.
"These guys gave us a wake-up call tonight," said Stars forward Jamie Benn.
Chicago, the NHL's top team, led 3-0 after one period and was up 6-0 after two. The Blackhawks held the Stars to just eight shots over the first 40 minutes of the game and ended up with a 34-19 shots advantage for the game. The eight goals against were the most the Stars had given up since March 1996, when Winnipeg beat the Stars 8-2.
"We certainly got humbled," added Stars captain Brenden Morrow.
The loss pushed the Stars' winless streak to four games (0-3-1) and left them at .500 (12-12-3) with 21 games left in their season. The Stars have been outscored 16-3 during the four-game slide.
"If this wasn't an alarm clock, I don't know what is," said Stars coach Glen Gulutzan.
The Stars held their own through the first part of the first period, but Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews scored two goals in a 1:35 span to give Chicago a 2-0 lead. A Nick Leddy rebound goal off the rush late in the period made it 3-0 and the rout was on.
"We've been concerned with our starts here for a while, but we usually battle back. Tonight it started bad and got worse," said Morrow.
A Johnny Oduya goal eight minutes into the second period and Stars goaltender Kari Lehtonen was done for the night. He allowed four goals on 17 shots. He was replaced by Richard Bachman, who allowed four goals on 17 shots the rest of the way. Neither Dallas goaltender stood much chance on this night.
"We dumped on our first goalie and we dumped on our second goalie. We left them to hang out to dry and it's unacceptable," said Benn. "We need to do something within this room to change that. It's an unacceptable effort tonight."
Marian Hossa scored twice in the second to push Chicago's lead to 6-0 after two periods. Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane scored in the third for Chicago and Trevor Daley scored on the power play for the Stars.
The Stars fell to 0-2-1 on their current homestand, during which they have been outscored 14-2. Their 5-6-2 home record is the worst in the Western Conference.
"We had a pretty good effort against Anaheim (Thursday night) but tonight was pretty lousy from start to finish," said Morrow. "So this was deflating for us. We've got some work to do."
For the Blackhawks, it was an impressive performance as they ran their league-best record to 23-2-3.
"I think it was everything, great defense, but for the most part, we had the puck the whole game," said Kane. "When you have the puck, you're not going to give up many shots and the ones we did give up, they were either from their point men or way on the outside. Crow (goaltender Corey Crawford) did a good job staying in there, but defense played great and we did a great job holding onto the puck."
*The Stars have scored three goals over the last four games.
*Every Dallas player had a minus-rating in Saturday's game except for center Derek Roy, who was even.
*The Stars were 1-2 on the power play and 4-6 on the penalty kill.
*Ryan Garbutt (hand) and Aaron Rome (foot) were out for the Stars.
*Tomas Vincour and Philip Larsen were healthy scratches.
*Attendance was 18,584, a sellout.

Located in sunny isla vista CA home of the UCSB Gauchos, KnB is a reat place to find some craft beer. 99% of the students here will be purchasing 12.99 30-racks of Natty, and wont even walk down the craft beer isle (I know I didnt for a long time). Here you can find some gems such as parabola, Abyss, FW13 and 14 and VE 07.07.07 and up. Not sure how fresh the IPA's are here but there are definetly some stouts and saisons which I wouldnt even hesistate to buy. Some great beers here, unfortunatly the prices are a little high and freshness could be an issue.

Despite having lived about .5 mi from this place for over 6 years, just made it in for the first time yesterday, and returned today. Those Jubel 2010 another reviewer mentioned? Yeah, they still have some. Along with 2008 Bitter Chocolate Oatmeal Stout. And that's probably not even the oldest beer there. I picked up a bunch of stuff that I've never seen anywhere else locally, or came and went instantly (2013 Abyss, 2011 Old Stock Cellar Reserve, some Clown Shoes specials), plus some other old stuff that I can't find anywhere else now (2012 §ucaba and DDBA). For the most part, prices on old stuff were close to new—so, a few bucks high for new, but a great deal for old. Probably look somewhere else for beers that must be fresh, but for stuff that ages well, kind of a gold mine. However, haven't had any of what I bought yet, so if it turns out to be bad due to improper storage, I will update this review.

Keg N Bottle has a huge selection of cold California microbrews and plenty of European imports as well. The prices are all about 25% higher than you would expect. Also be careful, Keg N Bottle is notorious for selling beer that is past the expiration dates or just very old.
Another thing is that there's absolutely no customer service or satisfaction. The cardboard box on a 12 pack of beer broke as I was lifting it off the cashiers counter after paying for it, sending it crashing to the floor, and they stubbornly refused to give me a new one.
Keg n Bottle is more of a necessary evil than something that you would voluntarily want to go to.

Had trouble finding this listing on BA but able to find it under Isla Vista over on the other site. Oh well.
Kind of a weird location being in the middle of a college campus but no more than 15 min from downtown SB. Definitely tons of liquor and BMC but I read enough reviews to know they had a decent craft section.
I liked that all the beers I cared about were in coolers except for 1 section, which kindof seemed like their "special" section. If anything, these are the beers that needed to be cold. Decent selection of Alpine (Duet, Nelson, Pure Hoppiness), but again, not cooled and a bit steep at $16.99 a bottle. A couple of RR things but waaay marked up ($25 a bottle for Damnation?!?!). Some FW 14 left, Brandy Angel's Share (also $25). Tons of other solid stuff in the cooler. Some good deals and finds that I picked up while I was there---Older Viscosity at a better price than I've seen elsewhere, Kern River Just Outstanding, Stone VE 07.07.07, Doggie Claws '09. Passed on Abyss (got really excited at first then realized they were '09s) but they still had tons of Jubel 2010.
Bottom line, if you're not from California and are vacationing in SB area, definitely check this out. I wouldn't make it a destination as better shops exist in the bay area and further south in LA, etc.

Stopped in a couple of days ago for the first time. Summer break, so not so many youngsters about. Impressive amount of beer and liquor, although a sales rep informed me that these kids can really burn through those 30 packs. It wasn't a few minutes later that three guys sweep past with a couple of Keystone light 30's. Oh, boy. Anyway, this place is a good stop on the way up or down the coast. Found lots of FW14's on the shelf and in the coolers. Speaking of which, the selection is ginormous. 2.5 entire supermarket size coolers, plus an "aging" section, says the guy behind the counter. Plus even more out on the floor stacked from floor to head high. Even a couple of Parabola 2011 still remain. Lots of belgians, California things, and such. Prices are very high, at least $2 - $5 more than I would expect. No bargains here. Also wonder how fresh some of these are. Saw someone dusting bottles - hmmm. Bought nothing, but will return again.

During my time at UCSB I found having Keg N' Bottle nearby sort of a God-send. The fact that this little liquor store in the middle of one of the craziest college towns has some of the best selection around is mind-boggling.
Scanning the two aisles of beer, particularly the single bottles, one gets a warm feeling knowing the hard to find and specialty beers they stock. Prices are reasonable, if not a bit more expensive considering its location and average customer. Pay no attention to the large stacks of Natural Light 30s being grabbed like candy around you.
It's only when you look into the cooler where you'll find such gems as the '09 Abyss I picked up the other day, or a range of Moylan's, Bruery, Allagash, and other wonderful beers available. If you're ever in town and looking for a specialty beer shop, look no further than K and B!

Keg N' Bottle has an enormous selection of single bottles and six-packs, think a full grocery aisle of each. They carry an excellent range of European imports and American Microbrews. Everything is refrigerated, so no waiting for your beer to chill when you get home. There's not much in terms of service if you're just browsing beer bottles, but I don't really mind, since it's the beer I'm after anyway. I like that they carry some sampler 6-packs of certain beers, for instance, for 20 bucks I grabbed a 6'er of different styles of belgian ales. My only complaint is that their selection doesn't change too often, but for this area there's really no place better.
***Edit*** It slipped my mind when I wrote this a few minutes ago, but they do have some issues with beers kept far past expiration, so keep an eye out for that. Their pricing is a little bit higher than average, but everything in Santa Barbara County seems that way...

I live in Goleta, so I've been quite pleased over the last few months to discover that this place has a selection that rivals if not exceeds San Roque/Mesa Liquors in Santa Barbara. Their stuff seems fresher (no dusty bottles!) and more of it (especially the really good stuff, almost 100%) seems to be refrigerated. 5.0 quality, given geography (it ain't quite City Beer or Hi-Time, but this ain't San Fran or LA County).
If you ask the right people, the beer knowledge is exceptional (and they're eager to know what else you'd like to see on the shelves), and if you call ahead, they'll let you know when special releases come in. They also have a discount card program that gives, I think, 2% back on large purchases. On the down side, if you come in at the wrong time, you may end up behind a line full of Isla Vista pre-partiers. (Of course, if that description fits you, it looks to me like this is your place -- I have heard about some really exceptional kegs getting ordered successfully here.) 5.0 service if you're there on the right days, 4.0 if you're not -> 4.5 final in the review.
Top-of-the-line SB county distro of most local, San Diego, and Bay Area breweries, DFH, standout Belgians and Europeans, and some real rarities in the 22oz section -- I haven't seen, for example, Coronado or the Shipyard special releases anywhere else in the county, and they're starting to get in some Russian River! Most importantly, they have the really special releases right out in the cases and they last a while before they're bought up: Firestone Anniversaries most prominently. 4.5 selection (RR would make it a 5.0)
Prices on standard stuff (Stone IPA, e.g.) aren't much higher than they are at local grocery stores and, of course, the rare/gourmet stuff is pricey, but mostly fits the the standard rate in SB -- and they list their prices on most of the six-packs, unlike San Roque/Mesa, in my experience. I wish there was a ranking between $$ and $$$. I went $$$ because when the prices do deviate from what I can get elsewhere (usually common stuff at grocery stores), they're usually higher than lower (but still usually beat San Roque). But on the elite stuff, it's $$.
It's replaced heading into Santa Barbara to find things for me (the only exception I can think of is the Pliny and Blind Pig at Whole Foods) and well worth stopping in even if you're coming from SB -- you may find it has surpassed San Roque. I would think, even if you're just passing through, it'd be worth a stop.

This is going to be the oddest beerfly review I've ever done, I can just tell.
I've been to Isla Vista (IV) once before, and was stunned by this store. It was before my BA days, but I still wanted to drink craft beer and at the time picked up an 07 Vertical Epic. Now I'm back with some more knowledge of exactly what everything in the store actually is, and I was not wrong in remembering the selection.
The selection is all refridgerated, which is awesome in my book, and faces no windows. Also awesome! Paging through their beers, we ran into such vintages at 06 Cantillon Gueuze, 04 and 06 Iris, several years of Chimay Blue, some Consecration / Temptation, Moylan's, Lost Abbey, and really just a diverse and rather appealingly huge selection. There really is quite a bit here that you won't find anywhere else in Santa Barbara, that's for sure.
Some great deals to be found: Stone/Brewdog's Black Pilsner collaboration: 5 dollars. Or half the price I've seen it most everywhere else. Some really interesting things to be found, and age can work in your favor here! But beware of the hoppy stuff or low-ABV beers, as they may have been there for a while.
As a semi-relevant story: the service here was all UCSB students, and we were geeking out over in the nice beer aisle as people pushed by us to pick up Milwaukee's Best and Keystone cases. The girls at the checkout were a little stunned by our huge purchase and seemed surprised that three guys their age were buying this nice of beer. Most of these, apparently, had never beer rung up before. They really knew next to nothing about beer, but I can almost write them a pass: they never got in the way, and they never acted like they did know what they didn't.
I have no clue what I really thought of K&B, but I certainly walked away in a good mood. Make the trip to check it out if you're in the area, you might find something pretty excellent.

Surprisingly good selection in the middle of IV, but you'll pay for it.
Really odd pricing scheme (usually very expensive, but there are good deals to be found), but a good place to find decent brews when need be.
The staff has no idea what they are talking about when it comes to beer, so don't go in with any questions.
Overall, I'm really glad this place exists, but its miles away from perfect. They could use a better staff, more consistent selection, and more reasonable prices.
EDIT: The more I go here, the more I appreciate it. Lots of good stuff to be found, but my previous complaints remain: no staff knowledge, really old stock (last time I was in there I found a best before 3/05!), and oftentimes pricey.
Stick to this rule, and you'll leave happy: 1. Always look for dates, and if no dates are available, only buy high ABV beers that do not depend on strong hop profiles for their quality.

Fox Undercover is bringing you more exclusive details about an alleged case of police brutality in Brookline.
Four Brookline cops have already been placed on paid leave after a weekend fight at a bachelor party.
The alleged victim first told his story to Fox 25.
Now a key witness is speaking out.
The stripper who saw what happened did not want to be identified.
"They were just like kicking him and punching him in the head. They wouldn't stop. He was brutally beaten. It was horrible," said the woman.
The woman saw what happened to her chaperone, Bob Sonia, early Sunday morning outside a condo on Beacon Street in Brookline.
The stripper works for Shamrock Entertainment which received a call at around three in the morning requesting a stripper at a bachelor party, a party attended by four off duty Brookline cops.
When the stripper and her chaperone arrived after four, the woman says the men told them the bachelor had already left and asked them to leave.
"So I think they had gotten upset that we were still trying to get them to have the show," said the woman, "because that's when they stated we're cops. You got to leave."
The stripper says she and her chaperone left, but were followed by one of the off duty cops.
"I noticed one of the men behind me taking pictures," she said.
The woman says Sonia got out of the car to find out what was going on.
"Next thing I know I seen the guy punch him and almost immediately the other 3 men that had been at the party attacked him," said the stripper.
The woman says the attack lasted at least 15 minutes.
"One of the men yelled let's take him to someone's house. I didn't hear the name, but they wanted to take him somewhere and once I heard that that's when I backed up the car," she said. "I had to try and get him out of there."
Eventually a uniformed officer arrived.
"I couldn't make any sense of it. The policeman came over. He wasn't trying to do anything with the men that were beating on Bob," said the woman.
Sonia was handcuffed, but not arrested and taken by ambulance to the hospital.
"I got a fracture right underneath my eye socket. I got a fracture on my nose and I got this laceration here, they glued that shut," said Sonia.
The stripper says she doesn't know why the situation escalated, but wonders whether alcohol use could explain the conduct of the off duty cops.
Brookline Police are still refusing to identify the officers involved and continue to withhold the police report and recordings of 9-1-1 calls.
In a statement, Brookline Police Chief Daniel O'Leary says his department is taking this matter very seriously.
He adds the department is withholding information to maintain the integrity of its investigation.

It's a little after 9AM on Friday morning. I quit my job (well, at least until Tuesday), and discovered that there is still NOTHING on TV weekday mornings. I don't get NFL network yet, so I couldn't watch the Hou-TB game replay at 8AM. And thus, my first mistake in months.....I watched SportsCenter.
There is still a part of me that recalls mornings before high school 15 years ago, when SportsCenter was a magical 30 minutes of every single score and game highlights from the previous day. The internet was still in its 1st trimester (props to Al Gore's inventing skillz), and the paper would print without all the final scores. It was 30 minutes of sports church, before reporting to real life duties.
And now there's the craptastic flagship show of the WWL, used like a politician's speech at a luncheon....only to promote themselves.
So what's the spark that ignited this dry pile of frustration, you ask? Well it's simple. I missed most of the game last night. I was really hoping to see just a few highlights....especially of BFD's latest love interest. But alas, after subjecting myself the the entire f'ing hour, there was nothing. No highlights, no score, not even a kiss before they got dressed and left.
Sure, they did show magnificent 64 yard night of Brady Quinn, Medicine Woman...the 2006 Heisman winner. Wait....what's that? You say that he did not win the Heisman. How can that be? ESPN repeatedly told me for 5 months that Quinn would win the trophy. So there just couldn't have been anyone else taking it home. That would make them wrong about something, and I'm not willing to accept that. (for you young 'uns out there, they call this a tangent)
Back to the point....No Texans reporting....None. They didn't even just show Gruden and the Tampa sidelines. Nothing.
Someone high up at Disney must have received a severe beating during a trip to Houston in the past. I mean, it has to be something logical like that....right?

Titans tight end Delanie Walker said six or seven "cancers" were the reason Tennessee came up short in 2013 and why former head coach Mike Munchak lost his job.Walker talked about a "cancer" in the locker room at the end of the season, but did not mention names then and he also came up short of naming names today during a radio interview on the Midday 180."Some of the guys that was the cancer, they really didn't care," Walker said. "They'd be happy to get up on out from the organization." "You would hear them talk about it, 'I can't wait to get up on out of here.' And I always told the guys, 'If you can't play here, what do you think you are going to do with another team?'"Walker went on to say that Munchak told him he knew what the problem was, but he did not want Walker mentioning them by name.The Titans started 3-1, but lost eight of their next 10 games. During that time Walker said it became obvious who cared about the organization and who did not.Walker also stressed in his second season he will feel much better about calling out players by name.

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is an account of a massive chocolate factory built by the legendary chocolate lover and inventor, Willy Wonka, and about how a little kid, Charlie, gets to visit the factory.
Summary Of The Book
In Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, the focus is on Charlie Bucket, a young boy who lives with his destitute family. His parents, though hard working, are nearly always poor. Besides them, there are two sets of grandparents who live with them, and they are nearly always ailing, confined to their beds.
In Charlie's little town, there is one place that always generates a lot of interest, which is a massive factory built by the infamous chocolates and confectionery maker, Willy Wonka. One of Charlie's grandfathers, Joe, explains what he remembers of the factory.
There are a number of mysteries surrounding the factory, in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. For one thing, the factory was non-productive for a long time, after which WIlly Wonka suddenly reappeared with a great secret sweet recipe and took the factory to new heights. Another mystery is that no employees are ever seen entering or leaving the factory.
A newspaper article says that Willy Wonka has placed five golden tickets in his chocolates, and those who are lucky enough to get these tickets will be given a tour of the factory. Understandably, the event is given wide press coverage, and the Bucket family read about the four children who get tickets. All four of them are extremely spoilt and badly behaved children.
As it turns out, Charlie gets the fifth ticket by sheer luck. All five children are taken into the factory and shown the sights. What happens to the spoilt kids? What happens to Charlie? Who exactly is Willy Wonka? Charlie And The Chocolate Factory is the manifestation of every child's dream.

Waking Up || Angel & Cordelia
"I am too," Angel simply responded. He sat in silence for a while, letting the news sink in to Cordy and trying to think of a sliver of good news to tell the girl. He wasn't about to break the news about Fred and Illyria yet.
"Connor's here," he said a little too abruptly. "In New York. He's attending NYU, studying to be a lawyer." Angel grinned as wide as any other proud parent would. "He's going to take down Wolfram & Hart." So the goals Angel set aside for his son were a little too ambitious, but he wasn't expecting his son to save the world in a day. No. Connor could just start with the Los Angeles Branch and work his way from there.
"Of course, he's just finishing his freshman year," Angel tried to downplay the pride swelling up within him and glanced down at his hands. "He still has to get through college and then get into law school." Things really had changed a lot in a short time period and not all for the worse. He and Connor were on speaking terms, more than that even. Angel always loved Connor, through the best and the worst, but now they truly felt like a father-son duo.
His eyes moved back up to Cordy, sure that she would love hearing the good news about Connor. She loved that boy just as much as Angel did. "I think he's doing good in college. It sounds like he's making a lot of friends, getting good grades, not partying too much." A crease appeared between his brows as he continued, "he's staying safe." Safe being relative to their lives, that is, but he was sure Cordy understood what he meant.
"He is?" Cordelia was startled out of her reverie, her mood brightened instantly. The boy had struggled with a lot in his life, the thought of him escaping into something as normal as going to college…it warmed her heart. Cordy smiled at Angel's obvious pride, mirroring her own. She wished she could have been around to see Connor achieve this. "That's so great! Although, I can't say I approve of the career path. Do we even know any good lawyers?" She teased.
"But…speaking of lawyers…you two are speaking? I thought Wolfram & Hart worked some mumbo jumbo," Cordelia waggled her fingers, "and gave him a normal life sans demons and goo? Not that I'm not thrilled, of course!" Nothing would please Cordy more than knowing that Angel had managed to remain in contact with his son. Both of them deserved to be happy, even if a certain Gypsy curse didn't agree. "I'm just surprised."
Did Angel re-enter Connor's life? Or did the magic put in place by Wolfram & Hart get lifted? Would he remember her? Cordelia wasn't sure what she was hoping for. She would love for him to remember her, but there was a lot of unpleasant memories tied to her as well. The amnesiac version of herself, the Jasmine debacle. It was a lot for them to overcome, she wasn't sure if Connor would be able to look past all of that.

Nihil Timeo (I Fear Nothing)
To provide trained personnel to work in support of RAF operations in the UK and worldwide.
More about this squadron
Eighty-eight years after its original formation, 502 (Ulster) Squadron reformed at Aldergrove Flying Station in 2013 as part of the RAF Reserves' growth to meet the requirements of Future Reserves 2020. As a multi-role squadron its mission is to provide a wide diversity of fully trained personnel to support current and future worldwide commitments.
Roles and specialist skills
With its wide variety of roles (see table above), 502 Squadron has opportunities for applicants from many backgrounds – whether direct entrants with no previous military experience, ex-Regular personnel (from any Service), and those with skills directly transferable from civilian life. The squadron recruits throughout Northern Ireland.
Like many RAF Reserves' units, 502 Squadron was a flying unit between its formation in 1925 and stand-down in 1957, and Aldergrove was its peacetime home throughout this time. It was formed as a heavy bomber unit in the RAF's Special Reserve – a mixed Regular and Reserve unit – and began to receive Vickers Vimys in June 1925, but replaced these with Handley Page Hyderabads in 1928. In 1931 the squadron received Vickers Virginias, which it gave up in 1935 on being re-designated a day bomber squadron, re-equipping with Westland Wallaces. These were replaced by Hinds in 1937, the squadron being transferred to the Auxiliary Air Force in July.
In November 1938, 502 was transferred to Coastal Command, converting to Avro Ansons in 1939. On the outbreak of war, it began patrols off the Irish coast, first with Ansons and then, from late 1940, with Whitleys. In January 1942 the squadron moved to East Anglia, where a maintenance base was set up at Bircham Newton, though from February all operations were flown from St Eval in Cornwall. 502 pioneered the use of Air-to-Surface Vessel (ASV) radar and on 30 November 1941 made the first successful attack on a U-boat by a Coastal Command aircraft using ASV, when U-206 was sunk in the Bay of Biscay. Conversion to Halifaxes began in January 1943, and in late 1944 the squadron moved to Scotland for attacks on enemy shipping off Norway.
By the time of its temporary disbandment on 25 May 1945 the squadron had earned five Battle Honours: Atlantic 1939–44; Biscay 1941–44; Channel & North Sea 1942–45; Dieppe 1942 and The Baltic 1944–45. The Squadron's wartime Roll of Honour is a poignant record of bravery and sacrifice. Members were awarded three DSOs, 50 DFCs, and two DFC Bars (double awards). In all, 174 members were officially listed as killed or missing as a direct consequence of war operations.
The squadron's first renaissance came on 10 May 1946, when 502 reformed as a Mosquito unit of the Auxiliary Air Force. In 1948 it became a day fighter squadron operating Spitfire F22s, converting to Vampire FB5 jets in 1951 and flying this type until disbanded on 10 March 1957. Its second renaissance came in 2013, when the RAF Reserves returned to Ulster for the first time in fifty-six years.

Later this week, San Francisco's infamous network admin Terry Childs will appear in court after his last hearing date was postponed for two weeks at the request of the San Francisco District Attorney. This hearing is fairly critical to the DA's case, as it will essentially determine the viability of the case going forward. If the court sides with Childs at this hearing, the case is over before it even begins.
To clarify exactly what's going on here, I figured I'd take a look at the four charges that the DA has brought against Childs. The first charge is "disrupting or denying computer services." Counts 2 through 4 involve "providing a means of accessing a computer, computer system, or computer network in violation of section 502." There's one such count each for each of the three modems in his workspace or otherwise under his control. Two of these modems were actual analog modems, and the third was a DSL modem connected to the Internet.
[ Get the full scoop on the Terry Childs case. | Read InfoWorld's jailhouse interview with Childs | Special report: Terry Childs: Admin gone rogue. ]
What's interesting here isn't the charges themselves, but the charges that are missing. Namely, the charge of sabotage, computer tampering, or the like. Apparently the very allegation that's kept him in jail for seven months wasn't strong enough to be presented to the court as a charge.
So let's look at the charges that have been presented. The first, "disrupting or denying computer services," describes a DoS situation whereby an individual has knowingly and purposefully caused an outage or disruption of a computer service.
Had the San Francisco FiberWAN gone down due to to Childs' actions, this would certainly apply. However, it did not. In my mind, this charge is wholly inaccurate as it relates to my knowledge of the case.
I suppose the validity of this charge depends on your definition of "services," however. Generally speaking, this section of the penal code was developed to be used in cases where a bad actor intentionally attacked a Web site or other resource with the goal of taking the site or resource down. Childs' refusal to give up the passwords for several days in no way caused a disruption of the normal operation of the FiberWAN; it prevented the network from being modified or extended for that period of time. In fact, it could be argued that his refusal actually prevented the disruption of normal network operation.

Local governments provide better services when they engage citizens in co-designing and improving the service
Fullly agree with Beth Noveck: transparency of the Government itself does not change anything and does not solve the local problems without combining it with the next step - meaningful citizens' participation and collaboration for the chage.
In Ukraine where I'm from 54% of citizens are fully or mostly unsatisfied with the quality of administrative service provision. Reasons include complexity of the administrative procedures; lack of proper information from the authorities; lengthy terms of service provision; uncomfortable work schedules of the administrative bodies; and many others. But can citizens influence this situation?
Effective mechanisms of raising citizens' concerns to provide their feedback to the local authorities and, most importantly, to make sure that this feedback is translated into the real actions to improve the quality of service provision, are still lacking.
One of the models which was experimented in L'viv municipality is a "Secret Client" model within which the organised groups of volunteers attend the administrative bodies to get some service and then report to the municipality through the active local CSO with their recommendations for improving the quality of this service.
There is also a number social innovation projects helping to engage citizens for constructive monitoring and oversight on administrative service provision in the couontry.
Our idea is to collect the most efficient models of engaging citizens by the local governments for the sake of improvement of the administrative services they provide.
We are sure that the TED community accumulated rich knowledge on the topic, which you could help us to reach. Please tell us about all experiences which you may recommend as a smart practice of public oversight on administrative service provision, be it Web 2.0 based initiatives or real-life exercises accomplished in your countries. We will be sincerely grateful for all thoughts and ideas you share with us.

Mar 26 2013: My career involved much training and some practice in systems analysis. We learned very early that close and thorough engagement with the users of a system was necessary to develop a decent system.
It is amazing to me that governments can be so far behind the private sector. I have recently been helping a recipient of government health services. The processes involved are absurd. They expect people who are chronically ill and debilitated to absorb thick books of information and fill out forms that require twenty pages. I am sure that many people never manage to complete all the work required and just go without services they need.
When developing government service processes, it is ESSENTIAL to engage the citizens who are being served. The "Secret Client" approach would be a good way to check on the results, but not a good method to design a new approach. My method included interviewing everyone involved and developing lists of everyone's requirements. When one person has the whole picture and understands all of the requirements, then that person can find an approach that will best satisfy everyone. In the case of government services, the needs of the people being served should have top priority.
Mar 27 2013: Thanks a lot, Barry! It is very interesting. How did you prepare your interview questions? Did you follow some specific pethodology of systsms analysis? In Ukraine, the area of "administrative service" is quite specific - it's the results of some beurocracy, the fact of getting an administrative service is some paper document - certificate, allowance, approval etc. So I am just trying to understand did you adjust some typical questionnaire to your area (heath care services) or just used a standard questionnaire from some methodology? I would be interested to learn more about the latter in this case.
Mar 27 2013: I became acquainted with a few methodologies, and found all of them to have deficiencies. (In part because they are intellectual property and one cannot copy features of another.) Whenever possible I observed people while they were performing their jobs and learned everything I could about the whole process. Often, the most important aspects of a job are the things people do without thinking about them, and these things are often forgotten during interviews. I am sure that some government clerks go the extra mile and do things for their clients that are not technically part of their job. They may not want to admit doing those things that their clients consider to be the most valuable. If you get involved in the nuts and bolts of this, be sure to check the top drawers of every desk for little note pads. These will have hand written notes about how the job really gets done.
Good luck.
Mar 27 2013: Thank you, Barry, for the very inspiring and practical; advice! Much appreciated. Honestly, office clerks in the municipalities often to their job nicely, but also are relucktant to any changes, even if those changes are for the better. One city mayor in Ukraine issued an official regulation regarding the telephone conversations with clients. Intead of "hello, ____ listening" he obliged the municipal staff to say "Good morning. ____, internal policies department, how can I help you?". This last part "how can I help you" was the most difficult for the employees in practices, they really couldn't force themselves to ask citizens how they could help them :)

YANKTON, S.D. (AP) - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is again seeing problems with litter below Gavins Point Dam on both sides of the Missouri River.
The corps is reminding recreationalists who use the area to throw out or recycle their trash.
Corps natural resource manager Gary Ledbetter says shorelines have been lined with pop cans, water bottles, beer bottles, empty bags of chips and Styrofoam bait boxes. He says most of the litter is left behind by individuals fishing from the shore.
He says it's typically bad on Mondays, as the trash accumulates over the weekend.
Ledbetter says the biggest problem with the styrofoam and plastic bottles is that they're not biodegradable.

SPOILER ALERT: This post divulges key plot details from season 1 of Netflix's House of Cards
Don't have Valentine's Day plans? Now you do! Netflix's House of Cards returns for its second season on Feb. 14.
Granted, Francis Underwood's Washington, D.C., isn't brimming with the best relationship material, but you're sure to find someone you'll love ... to hate. Kevin Spacey, Robin Wright and the rest of the House of Cards cast make the misdeeds of The West Wing look like a Bingo game.

On House of Cards, Claire Underwood is the queen of hearts, allowing her husband to sleep with a young reporter so they can leak damaging stories about their political enemies. And in an exclusive teaser from season two, it looks like the Underwoods are back to their old tricks.
But could it tear them apart?
In the clip from Netflix's hit drama, Claire (Robin Wright) and Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) are in full power-couple mode – though the tension between them is growing.

"There is no shame in my saying that we all want to be loved by someone. As I look back over my life in romance, I don't feel I've ever had that," the 52-year-old activist and actor, who will soon be seen in Gangster Squad, tells Esquire for its January 2013 issue.
"I have been the only one that was unaware of the fraud in a few of these circumstances blindly," he says.

The downtown branch of the popular Culver City wine bar is about what you'd expect from a place trying to compete in the L.A. Live area: It's flashy and it's loud. What you wouldn't necessarily expect is more than 800 wines (they'll open any bottle if at least two glasses are ordered), one of the city's premier beer lists, and challenging, well-executed small plates from chef Jackie Delarosa. We're not sure if the crew heading to the Dane Cook show appreciated the pig ear terrine or the fava and pistachio falafel, but we did. The spicy Cambazola blue from Germany was all the dessert we needed.
Success! Your message should arrive shortly.

Hey this is my first fan post so sorry for any mistake's in grammer and spelling.
Ufc's top five prospects:
5. Sara Mcmann.
Watch out for this olympian silver medalist because although she finds herself at number five, she's probably one of the closest to a title shot. Aside from being the 2004 free style US silver medalist, she has also won a silver medal in ADCC North American Championship, and a three time NAGA gold medalist. I believe this prospect is one fight away from getting a crack at the other olympian, Ronda Rousey. Because what would be cooler then two scrappy Olympians beating the crap out of each other?
4. Conor McGregor.
The Dublin Ireland native carries the weight his country on his back every time he comes to fight. This is clearly seen in his fist. Boasting twelve wins by KO and one by submission, theres no doubt this young man is a finisher, knocking a tough Marcus Brimage out in only a minute and seven seconds. Although the feather weight division is a little packed right now, with the amount of people that have been calling him out expect him to rise in the next two years.
Khabib has looked impression in all of his UFC wins and holds an impressive nineteen winning streak with no loses. The way this strong twenty four year old pushes the pace is an obvious result of his Sambo training. This internationally recognized Sambo Master is bound to have a title shot in a manner of time if he keeps going the way he's been.
2. Michael McDonald.
Why is Michael McDonald on this list? He seems like he has to much experience to be a prospect. The reason I place him down as a prospect is because he's only twenty two years old and his only set back has been a fourth round submission to the man I consider the true bantam weight champion, Renan Barao. Before that fight he was on a tear and at an age where he's bound to get carded for ordering a beer with his meal, he's got a lot of time to grow.
1. Rory McDonald.
I truly believe that Rory McDonald may rival Jon Jones for youngest, most impressive fighter. (I'm obviously talking about when Jones was twenty three net Jones right now). If it wasn't for his respect for the Welter-Weight king George St. Pierre, I believe we would have already seen him in a title shot. Rory has the full package. He's big strong carrying heavy punches and kicks but also has a graceful fluidity when he combines strikes thats reflects GSP's own style of striking. He's a nightmare match up for any fighter because frankly, how do you deal with him? He can whoop you standing and stuff your takedowns, and the moment you start to settle in with him standing he's taking you down. We have a true genius is this guy, I can't wait to see him pursue his full potential.

A popular sweet yeast bread made by Croatians and Slovenes at Easter time is known as pinca or sirnica (although in Bosnia and elsewhere in the Balkans, sirnica is a cheese-filo pie). It is often studded with raisins or citron and is round in shape. Some cooks scatter coarse sugar on the top before baking. A small pinca, along with other symbolic foods, is often placed in the Easter food basket to be blessed on Holy Saturday and eaten Easter morning. Another popular Croatian bread offering at Easter is Bread Dolls Recipe or Primorski Uskrsne Bebe.
Here are more Eastern European Easter Bread Recipes and here is more on How Croatians Celebrate Easter.
Here are more Eastern European Easter Bread Recipes and here is more on How Croatians Celebrate Easter.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Rise time up to : 4 hours
Total Time: 5 hours, 5 minutes
Yield: 2 loaves Pinca / Sirnica
- Bread:
- 2 tablespoons active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 4 ounces warm milk
- 4 ounces dark or light raisins
- 2 tablespoons Croatian grape brandy (rakija komovica) or plum brandy (slivovitz)
- 5 cups all-purpose flour
- 5 ounces cold butter, cut into pieces
- 7 ounces sugar
- 4 large egg yolks (Recipes for Leftover Egg Whites)
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- Egg Wash:
- 1 large beaten egg
- Topping:
- Coarse sugar
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine yeast, 1 tablespoon sugar and 4 ounces warm milk. Stir with a fork, cover and set aside to become foamy. Meanwhile, in a separate small bowl, combine raisins with grape brandy and set aside.
- In a large bowl, or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cut the cold butter into the flour until fine crumbles result. Switch to the dough hook attachment (or knead by hand) and add 7 ounces sugar, egg yolks, yeast mixture, zests and vanilla. Knead on medium speed until dough forms into a ball. Add the raisins and the soaking liquid, and continue to knead on low speed until raisins are distributed evenly and dough is smooth. Add more warm milk if too dry or more flour if too wet. Scrape down the sides and cover bowl with greased plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. This can take up to 2 hours.
- When dough has doubled, punch it down and turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide the dough in half and shape each into a round loaf. Place each round loaf onto a parchment-lined baking sheet pan, spacing well apart. Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size. This can take up to 2 hours.
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Brush the tops of the loaves with beaten egg. Then, using scissors, cut a deep "X in the tops to form a cross shape. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired. Bake 30 to 45 minutes, but start checking for doneness after 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer should register at least 190 degrees when plunged into the middle of the bread. Remove from oven and from sheet pan, and cool completely on a wire rack. Store cooled pinca in a breadbox or covered loosely with a kitchen towel.

Apparently I got a bad one
I was so excited I finally found one in the store so I bought it, on my way into work, so I had to sit through work waiting to play the thing, then it was a good hour after I got home before I could set it all up, and wella! It won't take a disc, after screwing around with it a bunch I got it to finally take a disc in, then it wouldn't read or play the disc great, then it started locking up on me, switching to a black screen of death and staying there forever, I had to unplug it to get it to reset...
So today I called Nintendo, the best they can do for me is to send out a return slip for ups, then I have to wait for them to fix or repair it... I guess they dropped the great service they had when the wii first came out
The good news is I bought it through Gamestop and they found me a new one, and they will take it back in exchange.... I think I'll buy the extended warranty this time .
The wife is going to pick it up for me later tonight, hopefully I be up and running tonight
Anyways I'm here now 28m in MN, I'll join some other discussions later.

UTEP didn't win too much last season, going 4-8 and not making a bowl game. But the people over at Miner Rush are predicting an improvement and the Miners going bowling this coming season. That would be a definite success for a program that's been struggling for the last few years.
New Mexico is going to try to rebound from a one win season just a year ago, but it won't be easy. New Mexico returns the least starters and has the least experience in starting out of all the teams in the MWC. UNLV is also looking to get their first winning season since 2000 after going 5-7 the last 2 years. They made a coaching change and that might give them the edge in this game.
UTEP probably will win this game because even though UTEP was a 4-8 team last season, New Mexico was a 1-11 team last season and people are predicting this coming season to be even worse than last season.
UTEP is ranked 77th while New Mexico is ranked 96th in the Sporting News Top 100. This game has a 4:00 PM MT kick and will be televised on The Mtn. and The Mtn. HD.
Voting begins at 11:00 AM Mountain Time every day and lasts for 24 hours.

In about a day and a half, the countdown to the fourth World Series of Fighting card will be over, and we'll be able to watch another entertaining event. Among the bright and shiny stars in the line-up for Saturday night are some rising prospects that are looking to make a splash on the MMA scene, and bantamweight Brandon Hempleman is hoping to do just that against Brazilian striking ace, Marlon Moraes.
I recently sat down with Hempleman in a quick interview, along with my MMA Sentinel co-host, Iain Kidd. Brandon discussed his upcoming bout with Moraes and why he feels pressure and a healthy dose of fear are needed to be successful in mixed martial arts. Here's what he had to say:
I'm training harder than ever. If you're not fighting scared, then you're not fighting the right people. The pressure is the biggest part of it for me. I think it's part of human nature to feel that anxiety, and the trick is to rise to the occasion, which I always try to do.
Being the Underdog
It bothers me to be the underdog. I've been the underdog in all my fights and it bugs me. It's because of where I'm from and not because of my skillset or my potential. I've just got to go and show the world why I shouldn't be the underdog anymore.
Fame & Glory
I'd definitely have to say that the notoriety is the most important thing to me. World Series took a chance on me and gave me this shot, so I'd like to build my name with them. Money is a big thing, but I do this for glory more than anything else.
I sacrifice so much for this. I live in my parents basement so I can train full time. I drive all over the state so I can train with decent sparring partners. I'm not doing it half way. I want to make a name for myself.

After reading Kegbearer pour out some love for Marion Barber it got me motivated to write something about Tashard Choice. To me it seems like the writing is on the wall for Tashard Choice as well. I believe he will be in Dallas for his final season of his contract and will leave for a lead back (or more involved) type of role elsewhere. For whatever reason or reasons, Choice has never won the type of playing time most think he should receive for his level of play when given prime opportunities.
What honestly makes this situation a big mess in my eyes is that we tipped our hand yet again. We did this with TO, Greg Ellis and Patrick Crayton. Every team in the NFL knows that we simply do not want Tashard Choice on this team. Think about this for a second. Choice would have a generous trade value had we somewhat toned down that we don't want him in Dallas. Choice has proven time and time again that he is a valuable player, especially when injuries occur. Choice has absolutely zero trade value now because a team will just wait until he is a free agent in 2012. The most we could receive is a 6th round pick in my opinion.
I also have a beef with the Cowboys brass on this issue. Going into last year it was evident we needed another cornerback and we still do. The rumor was Tashard Choice for Antonio Cromartie. Cromartie has cleaned up his off the field issues and seems to be a more gracious family man. Yes, people will bring up the Hard Knocks episode where he couldn't remember all his kids names. Could you remember 8 different kids names? I don't know but I think I would slip up there too. Cromartie is one of the better cover corners in the NFL and to think we could have traded Choice for him turns my stomach.
Now I love Tashard Choice's game on the field. He is a gritty runner that gets the job done and is great at finding the pay dirt. But if you know as a franchise that your not going to give this guy playing time and you can get in return one of the better cornerbacks in the NFL I am making that trade. For whatever reason Choice is not even going to be the #2 RB on this team, so they should have taken top trade value when they had the chance. When the time comes and trades are allowed again, Dallas will not receive anything more than a 6th round pick for Choice. The NFL has ears and eyes, every team knows about our situation.
How Will You Remember Tashard Choice?
How will you remember Tashard Choice? For me that is a difficult question because Choice really has not been a Cowboy for that long. I will remember him for his amazing 2008 performances. He stepped in against three of the best defenses in the NFL and produced big time. He had HUGE games against the Steelers, Giants and Ravens. I remember when we drafted him in the fourth round of the 2008 NFL Draft. I believe we got great value with Tashard Choice. It also goes to show you how easy it is to find quality running backs in the draft.
I will also remember the 2009 season Choice had for us. He again average over 5 yards per carry with 5.5 yards per carry. When he played he made big plays and got the job done. When Choice was given opportunities in 2009 he produced. It was cool seeing him run the wildcat formation too.
2010 was a mixed bag for Tashard Choice. His YPC dropped to 3.7 but I blame most of that on the offensive line and lack of carries. The one game he shined was at the Colts and he had a great game. He was given the starting job and had 100 yards on 19 carries. He had a big time 26 yard touchdown. That was his only game as a feature back last season and he showed why I believe he has game.
The bad always sticks to peoples minds, so lets cover that as well. In the season opener Choice really made a huge error that led to our loss. Instead of going down or out of bounds he battles DeAngelo Hall and gets stripped. Hall returns it for a touchdown and we entered the half embarrassed badly. I know he is trying to make a play for his lack of playing time, but that wasn't a good decision. Basically that play summed up our season, a bunch of bad decisions and mental errors. I just want to point out that this was his first fumble of his career. Choice is very secure with the football. Just this one time he messed up, but he messed up big time.
The there was a big time situation at the end of the Eagles game where we just lost a really close game 27-30. Choice was seen on national television going up to Mike Vick and getting his autograph. This was so controversial at the time and has really died down but people will not forget that. I really didn't have a major problem with it at the time, but after really thinking about it I don't like the move. We just lost a heartbreaker against a bitter rival. It was said that Tashard was getting the autograph for a nephew or something, but wait until afterwards in the locker room. It made Tashard look like a fan, or a "Stan" as some people would call it.
Those two events possibly play into the reason why Jerry Jones and Jason Garrett do not like Tashard Choice. I really believe something is going on behind the scenes. There has to be more to the story than we know about. From the outside looking in, Choice looks like a warrior to me. But I am not at the meetings in the film room and I am not in the locker room. Choice was known to be a TO guy when he was here also. So maybe Choice isn't the fun loving passionate player we know and is different behind the scenes. Maybe he isn't a hard worker in practice. Maybe he falls asleep in offensive meetings and film sessions. I really don't know what it is, but there is something going on behind the scenes in my opinion.
Jerry Jones called Choice out publicly for his poor special teams play. Well I got news for you Jerry, not every 5'10 200 pound guy is cut out for special teams. Most of the time he is taking on guys twice his size and they are stronger. The plays Jerry was referring to I saw on www.dcfanatic.com because DC broke it down in a video. Choice wasn't awful I can tell you that much, he did his job and did what he could against a 350 pound guy. So the whole Choice sucks at special teams bit is a lame excuse.
Then there is the whole Choice sucks at pass blocking theory. I know when I watch games Choice throws his body around out there. He is a willing blocker who at least gives it his all out there. I am not really a believer in this theory either. I have seen him miss blocks, but he is giving full effort. I have seen a few missed blocks, but nothing that has made me to believe he is awful at it. The player we should harp on for this is Gronkowski, he ended our season last year not Choice.
Basically this whole situation is a big sloppy mess. Its like you're eating ribs drenched in savory BBQ sauce without the napkins on the side. Since 2008 the situation has brewed into a full time disaster. Now I may be over reacting because Choice is only a 4th round pick, but I believe the guy has starter potential. What makes this whole ordeal even worse is not getting anything in return. Choice will be here this year but he will leave next year. Basically we played our hand the wrong way and now we have cornered ourselves into limited options. Marion Barber is likely the first to go, but Choice may not be that far behind him. Yes it would not shock me to see the Cowboys sign an UDFA RB (good class this year) or sign a low level free agent RB. That would make Choice even more expendable to a trade. We gave away Crayton for peanuts so why wouldn't we give away Choice for peanuts?
Personally I believe Choice is the next Michael Turner. Choice was buried behind Adrian Peterson at OU and transferred to Georgia Tech. The same thing happened to him in Dallas as he is buried behind Marion Barber. Choice will find a team that needs a running back and will succeed with more playing time. Fortunately for us we have Felix Jones and DeMarco Murray to carry on with. Those two are exciting players and I love the combination of those two. It shouldn't be hard for the Cowboys to find another Tashard Choice, it really shouldn't because you can find quality running backs deep into the draft.
What we need to do is just handle the situation better if this occurs again. Also I would not rule out Choice yet, there is a small chance he regains Garrett's confidence again. That chance is really slim but you never know. I just think the way this situation has played out is a shame. Like I said I don't know if there is something going on behind the scenes, but on the field Choice is a warrior. He seems like a great guy, but who knows if he isn't like that off the field. Hopefully this gets resolved but I seriously doubt that. Felix Jones is a former first round pick with the game breaking speed you want on the field. DeMarco Murray has the same game breaking talent and is better suited as a pass receiver out of the backfield.
I wish Tashard Choice the best in the 2011 season. I also wish him the best in his career moving forward. If he leaves for another team (which he will) in 2012 I will root for him there. The whole Tashard Choice career as a Cowboy started off bizarre and will end in bizarre. I just hope this is the end of these type of situations in Dallas.
This has been a ChiaCrack Production

Lynchburg, VA - The heat is also affecting some senior living homes. The Oaks of Lynchburg has been without power since Friday night. Inside, fans are powered by generators.
Directors say the nearly 60 residents who live there are suffering, especially those on oxygen tanks. The average age of those living in the home is 87 years old.
Family of those living there say they are concerned this health facility is not getting priority.
"It doesn't make me feel very comfortable and it doesn't make my wife feel very comfortable also. But we know there's so many other things going on right now. But we def. just want to make sure that they are on a priority list," said Ashby Sandidge.
An AEP spokesperson says outages are prioritized. The bigger the outage, the higher the priority.

Park Ridge/Oak Lawn, Ill. -- Two Chicago area children's hospitals have decided that ensuring the best possible pediatric care for kids and their families can best be done by becoming one.That's why Advocate Health Care's two flagship pediatric hospitals – Advocate Lutheran General Children's Hospital in Park Ridge and Advocate Hope Children's Hospital in Oak Lawn -- have joined to create Advocate Children's Hospital, effective officially on Oct. 29.The hospital now becomes one of Illinois' and one of the nation's largest pediatric enterprises, with more than 400 pediatricians and 230 subspecialists offering a wide range of care – from neonatology to cardiovascular services; comprehensive cancer care, including treatment of brain tumors and blood cancers like leukemia; trauma care; and a full range of rehabilitative and therapy services, such as audiology, speech therapy, physical and occupational therapy and the care of the autistic child. With 400 licensed beds, including 111 Level III neonatal intensive care beds and 46 Level II special care nursery beds, the integrated hospital is considered among the top 10 network providers of pediatric services in the nation."We now have a broader voice and a broader skill set to make things happen," said Mike Farrell, recently named president of Advocate Children's Hospital. "This puts us in a position to adapt and grow with changes taking place in the health care world."In fact, the hospital's new organizational framework is designed to do just that – adapt and grow. By enhancing communication among physicians and other health care professionals, including increased opportunities for consulting, conferring and collaborating, Advocate Children's Hospital will be able to provide highly effective, individualized treatments, using evidence-based practices.The overall goal is to provide families more options and access to excellent service close to home, hospital leaders emphasize. Indeed, because of its strong foundation, Advocate Children's Hospital is well poised to fulfill this mission of service to the community.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mortgages
How long does the mortgage process
Processing and closing a mortgage usually takes between 30
and 60 calendar days. An Industrial Bank Mortgage Lender can
give you a precise estimate based on your individual situation.
How much does it cost to close
a mortgage?
For purchases, most mortgages require a minimum down payment
as a percentage of the sales price or appraised value [whichever
is less]. Moreover, some loans require a very low down payment.
Closing costs include:
Loan origination [varies with loan type
and term]
Discount points [optional - can be paid
to lower your interest rate]
Appraisal fee
Credit report fee
Flood zone determination fee
Title insurance fee
Deed recording fee
Survey fee
Pest inspection fee [if necessary]
Underwriting/document review fee
Interim interest [varies with the closing
Tax service fee
Attorney fee
Additional fees may apply as warranted
by your state and/or personal situation
Many of the same fees apply to refinance loans, but closing
costs can often be included in the loan amount.
When should I apply?
Most borrowers apply once they have selected a property.
However, you can get pre-qualified
by Industrial Bank so that you'll already know how much
house you can afford before you start shopping.
Where do I apply?
If you want to apply for an Industrial Bank mortgage, please
call one of our Mortgage Lenders at (301) 839-4600, Monday
- Friday, 8:00 to 5:00 EST. They will answer any questions
you have and schedule a personal appointment at a time and
location convenient for you.
What information
will be required when I apply?
To speed the application process, here is some of the information
you should gather:
Sales contract
Social Security number[s]
Gross monthly income[s]
Name/address of each employer for past
two years
W2 forms for past two years and year-to-date
Last two monthly checking/savings account
statements [if not Industrial Bank Accounts] and brokerage
statement or name, address, account number and balance

Be prepared to pay the credit report,
appraisal and flood certification fees
VA loans only: Certificate of Eligibility
or DD124
What is the APR?
The Annual Percentage Rate [APR] is the cost of your credit
expressed as a yearly rate. The APR starts with the Interest
Rate, and then adds in other costs such as points and fees.
All lenders are required by the Truth In Lending Act to disclose
the APR. However, your note rate is the rate at which your
mortgage payment is calculated.
What is the difference
between pre-qualifying and pre-approval?
A pre-qualification
is normally issued by a loan officer, who, after interviewing
you, determines the dollar value of a loan you can be approved
for. However, loan officers do not make the final approval,
so a pre-qualification is not a commitment to lend. After
the loan officer determines that you pre-qualify, he/she then
issues you a pre-qualification letter. This pre-qualification
letter is used when you are making an offer on a property.
The pre-qualification letter indicates to the seller that
you are qualified to purchase the house you are making an
offer on.
Pre-approval is a step above pre-qualification. Pre-approval
involves verifying your credit, down payment, employment history,
etc. Your loan application is submitted to an underwriter
and a decision is made regarding your loan application. If
your loan is pre-approved, you are then issued a pre-approval
certificate. Getting your loan pre-approved allows you to
close very quickly when you do find a house. A pre-approval
can help you negotiate a better price with the seller, since
being pre-approved is very close to having cash in the bank
to pay for the house!

Concerns over whether or not the game will happen remain. Despite the snow on the ground, however, the game is still scheduled and on for tomorrow night at 7 p.m. The Orange are scheduled to arrive in Hartford at 5 p.m. tonight and
so far there's no indication they won't make it though similar flights have been grounded or delayed. The Huskies head to Hartford via buses tonight as well.
UConn has released an official statement saying...nothing. Just to keep an eye out for more official statements.
If and when the Orange do arrive, they'll have to get their defense in order. The Juice says SU needs to stop the bleeding, especially up top.
Syracuse has been allowing too many open 3s over the past four games. Pittsburgh, Villanova, Seton Hall and Marquette have gone a combined 33-for-69 from 3-point land during that stretch.
Specifically, it's been the top of the zone that has allowed opponents to penetrate to the soft spots of Syracuse's defense. Guards Scoop Jardine, Dion Waiters and Triche have not been as active during the last four games.
Another thing the Orange need to do once they get to Hartford? Not go to Chipotle. There are two in the vicinity. Barricade doors, people.
They also probably want to worry about Kemba Walker. Though Seth Davis says Kemba is in a slump, a slumping Kemba Walker is still dangerous enough to give SU fits, especially the way we've been playing defense lately. And to answer your question, yes, he can hit the three.
Through 20 games this season, Walker made more 3s (40) than he did all of last season in 34 games (38). He's hit three or more 3-pointers in six games this season — a feat he accomplished just three times in his career prior to this year.
And his ability to drive the lane — the skill that's always been his strength — has only become more dangerous. Now teams have to respect his jump shot, and they can't pack the paint with all five defenders.

USDA'S National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) is conducting its first-ever survey of custom dairy heifer raisers, starting this month.
The Dairy Heifer Raiser 2011 survey is designed to collect data on current management practices used on heifer ranches and, more importantly, identify future challenges facing the industry. NAHMS officials are hoping to collect data from operations in 21 states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
The agency is currently recruiting heifer raisers for the survey, says Jason Lombard, a NAHMS veterinary epidemiologist. If you choose to participate in Dairy Heifer Raiser 2011, you will be asked to complete a single questionnaire which will be administered by a federal or state animal health official starting this month through Aug. 31, 2011.
If you raised dairy heifers during 2010 for at least one operation other than your own, you are eligible to participate, Lombard says.
In addition to gaining valuable information about the health and management practices of the U.S. heifer-raiser industry, participants will receive a customized report comparing study results from their operation with results from other operations in their state or region. Participants will also receive, upon request, a comprehensive report detailing results from all 21 participating states.
If you are a dairy heifer raiser interested in participating in this study, contact Abby Fienhold at (866) 907–8190. She will arrange for your participation with your state's study coordinator.
