Whether we like it or not, Android spy software and programs are here to stay. Fact is that the companies developed this spy software for Android operating system because they suppose that this system will grow in the future and it's already been developed for many other mobile operating systems.
What is that Android Spy software does?
The answer is easy. It collects info about how the Android based phone is being used and makes it available on a website so that the person who bought the Android spy program can see it.
Android Spy that you can go from this page is called SpyBubble. At the end of this page you can find other spy apps that also work great on Android OS.

Android spy software wasn't meant to be an invasion or privacy or a method to break the law. In fact, you are breaking the law, if you install this software on phones that aren't technically yours. It's also very difficult to install in somebody else's mobile phone. You'd have to take it without the person's permission, install the software on it, and return it without the individual noticing.
So, what do you do with it? Here are three most usual features of the Android Spy Software:
- Finding out if your husband or wife is having an affair. This is perhaps one of the most controversial of uses, but one of the most common. You can observe easily with this spy software, if there's something to be worried about or if you're very jealous and suspicious. In the worst of cases, at least you'll be able to begin a healing process.
- Keeping an eye on your children. This kind of software possibly could bring relief to a worried parent, if children are missed or they don't reply the phone. Or, in case of an emergency, save a lot of precious time.
- Check out your employees. We all like to believe that our employees use the phone for the benefit of the business, but that's not real truth. However, it's fine when a boss pay the bill for the personal long distance call. This software will let you to put stop to this practice.

So, as you could see, when citizens use Android spy programs, it's because they are protecting their interests or their family. It's got nothing to do with hacking into other's cell phones or computers. Only folks like you and me, worried about protecting what's dear to us.

Taking a knee. It a practice in football where the Quarterback "takes a knee" when the game is over, or either it's time to go into the locker room for half time. Because, in football, anything could happen when the ball is snapped. So how does this translate into basketball and Kobe Bryant? Well, I think it's time for him to take a knee. Run out the clock on this season. It's not your style, but let's look at the argument for sitting out for the rest of the season.
When it comes to being a Kobe Bryant fan, you will be hard pressed to find one as big as me. I know that every Lakers fan feels the same way I do. I must admit that I was more of a Shaq fan than a Kobe fan. It's kind of hard not to be. He was a Laker through and through. He walked the walk, he talked the talk, and he scored the points. When the last time you've seen a big man dominate like that? It has been a while. So when he left, we all had to look at Kobe and say "well…..". It wasn't the 81 points he dropped, but it was the incredible season he had that year that impressed me the most. He was a machine. He went out there every night and bled Lakers pride. He became the face of the franchise, and the only one who could even remotely have a claim for the title "The Next Jordan". But now that time has passed.
Every player ages. We see it in almost all the sports. From Kobe Bryant to Tiger Woods to even Rodger Federer, they all have long since left their prime. The hardest part for an athlete is to face the facts; you are NOT getting any younger. So when people say Kobe will be back in 6 weeks, I must first ask the question why? He's still the Black Mamba. He's still good for 25+ points a night with 5-7 boards and a few assist. And that's after 17 seasons in this league. But he, like everyone in this world, cannot escape father time. He gets us all in the end. Kobe has 2 years left after this season to get it done. That's two more shots to get that 6th ring, and maybe the 7th. So why not sit out, rest up, practice with the team, and get ready for next season?
I'm not saying he should lay down. I am saying he should pick his battles. Realistically, do the Lakers have a shot at the Finals? No. At best, we have a shot at a low seed in the playoffs. We are not better than San Antonio. We defiantly are not better than the Thunder. So there isn't much hope against to make any noise. But here me out. Kobe sits. He rest. He gets a couple of plasma treatments on his aging knees. We continue are rebuilding. He comes back next season, fresh. Think about it. A fresh Kobe. Maybe even a few new players from trade and free agents? Could we have a shot? I think so. Is it the right thing to do? I'll let you decide. But I would love nothing more than to see Kobe get number 6. To see the Lakers hang another Banner. To see another star put on the Lakers center court. To be the NBA's best. That's what being a Laker is all about, right?

Sonia Fuderer
Fuderer's winning project, "21st Century Community Learning Center Reading Program", is part of the after school program that provides snacks, tutoring, enrichment activities and home transportation to students in the third, fourth and fifth grades. It is designed to close the achievement gap in reading and math that has developed at the school. By incorporating the Leap Frog Reading Pro Series into the after school program, each student will have one-on-one interaction with the Leap Pad, with intervention from teachers when necessary. The overall goal is to help each enrolled child improve their reading grade by at least one letter grade. Several Nook Colors will also enhance the reading experience for the participants, allowing them a personal library at their fingertips. From interactive picture books to more advanced selections, students will have access to not only the stories, but get help reading them too by a push of a button. More than 100 students will benefit from this project, allowing those students who are at least one grade level behind a chance to catch up through the use of these new technology tools purchased with the ING grant. Fuderer lives in Louisville.

Exclusive: Lil Boosie Refutes Police Bribery Accusations, "I Always Have A Big Wad Of Cash"
Wednesday, Aug 26, 2009 11:20AM
After a Louisiana police officer accused Lil Boosie of attempted bribery in a recent pre-trial hearing related to an arrest last year, SOHH spoke with the rapper to get his side of the story.
According to Boosie, the Baton Rouge officer fabricated the bribe story.
"Officer just lied and he said I told him I pulled out a big [roll] of money," Boosie explained. "They tryna blow it up to turn the judge against me. That's just a lie. I always have a big wad of cash and three credit cards, too." (SOHH)
Earlier this week, the officer accused Boosie of trying to bribe him during last year's arrest.
On top of the possession charges, an officer testified Monday in a pre-trial that the MC tried to bribe him. East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Deputy Nicholas Locicero said that after he pulled him over, Boosie told him, "I'm Boosie, how much do you want?" When Deputy Locicero was asked how he interpreted the statement, he said he believed he was being offered a bribe. His trial is set for September 28. (Hip Hop Wired)
Boosie recently released a video addressing a separate arrest on assault and battery charges and showcasing his confidence in beating the case.
"First of all, I wanna thank all my fans for supporting me through my trials and tribu-hatin'," Boosie said in a video. "I wanna thank y'all for that. People probably saw me on the news, it ain't really that, they gave me a $400,000 bond. I wanna thank all my fans for the support. Shout-out to everybody who helped me down on MySpace and all the haters who were on MySpace, really hatin' on me and wanna see me in situations even though I'm going through a couple of situations right now, I still won't get convicted. They really want me convicted so I can't ride with my tool and all that, but I wanna thank y'all for y'all support. And all my real fans, even my haters my fans. They loved me before they hated. Right haters?" (Trill Entertainment)
He was arrested last fall for alleged possession of drugs, weapons and resisting an officer in his homestate.
Boosie approached deputies in his Dodge Challenger while on the road in East Baton Rouge Parish around 4 p.m. on Wednesday (October 22). Claiming there was a scent of marijuana coming from the vehicle, authorities reportedly approached Boosie who, in turn, refused to step out of his car and then proceeded to drive away. Stopping him from escaping, Boosie was then arrested by deputies and placed into Parish Prison on counts of marijuana possession, possession of a firearm with a controlled dangerous substance and attempting to run from law enforcement.

Last week, one of our sister pages asked this fundamental question: How might baseball's amateur draft be more compelling?
Most of the answers were along the same lines: Don't bother, because it's nearly impossible. Which is a perfectly reasonable position. This never would have come up in the first place, except the NFL and NBA drafts became such big events. I remember reading one of Jayson Stark's columns a long time ago, in which he essentially said, "Why can't we be more like the NFL and the NBA?"
To which I responded as politely as possible, "Because we're not the NFL and the NBA."
Last June, the Portland Trail Blazers drafted Weber State's Damian Lillard with the sixth overall pick. This season, he averaged 19 points per game. The New Orleans Hornets had the first pick and drafted Kentucky's Anthony Davis, who averaged nearly nine rebounds per game this season. Of course, Lillard and Davis were exceptional; the great majority of drafted players don't make that sort of impact less than a year after being drafted. But it does happen.
Same thing in the NFL, but more. Last year, the first two players selected in the NFL draft were quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III; both went straight into the lineup, and both guided their teams to the playoffs. Quarterback Russell Wilson wasn't drafted until the third round ... but he matched Luck's and Griffin's feats. Again, these players were exceptional. But most of last year's first-round draft picks immediately became valuable professional football players.
Which is why it's so ridiculously easy for fans to care a great deal about those drafts. That guy your team just drafted in the first round? He's probably going to play now, and he might be really good and really soon. Of course you're going to get excited about that.
That's not baseball, and never will be. Every so often, there's a player -- Alex Rodriguez, Stephen Strasburg, Bryce Harper -- who's labeled "can't miss" and is obviously going first ... but even those guys don't do much in the majors for at least a year and usually more. Which means the draft is essentially exciting for fans of the team with the first pick, every five or 10 years (on average).
Compelling television? Hardly, even with MLB Network's analysts routinely comparing second-round draft picks to established major-league players.
But of course the televised draft isn't going away, and Bleed Cubbie Blue's Al Yellon does have one suggestion that really would help:
You know, the draft already has been made somewhat more compelling over the last decade; there is much more coverage of amateur baseball, mock drafts, and it's now a prime time show on MLB Network, though I admit it could use a less snooze-inducing host than Bud Selig. (Hey, how about Bob Costas announcing the picks?)
Yes! A new host! Bud Selig may list many fine qualities on his résumé, but I'm afraid that compelling television presence just isn't one of them. Knowing how much Selig a) loves baseball, and b) wants the draft to attract viewers to MLB Network, it wouldn't be surprising to learn that he's decided to step aside, handing the baton to some polished presenter. Bob Costas, f'rinstance, or Nathan Lane.
Major League Baseball continued rolling out more details on its draft broadcast on June 6-8, with three Hall of Famers (George Brett, Jim Bunning and Tommy Lasorda) among the club representatives for each team on the first night at MLB Network's Studio 42 in Secaucus, N.J.
On the first night of the draft, each team will have representatives at MLB Network. Commissioner Bud Selig traditionally announces the first-round picks, with club representatives announcing the later picks.
I don't know. Maybe somebody's tuning in for George Brett, Jim Bunning, and Tommy Lasorda. Plus Luis Gonzalez and Ralph Garr and Jason Varitek and Kerry Wood and Al Bumbry and Frank Thomas and Eric Davis and Pedro Astacio and Jose Cruz and David Eckstein and Charlie Hough and Tony Oliva and Mr. Mariner and Crime Dog and so many others. I think if you're already watching, it's fun to see those guys. But you're not going to watch because Alvin Davis and Fred McGriff are hanging around with nothing to do except look pretty.
I'm not going to suggest that nothing can be done. Allowing trades would spice up the proceedings, although I don't guess that many teams would actually trade draft picks. And there might well be something that nobody's proposed; there's probably something that will seem completely obvious, the moment someone proposes it. But my gut tells me the draft will always be what it is: of interest to only the most rabid of the cognoscenti. Even with Bob Costas filling in for Commissioner Bud.
Or maybe I'm just bitter about Bubba Starling.

Fatullah - Virat Kohli has won the battle of the captains as reigning World Cup champions India defeated host Bangladesh by six wickets in the second match of the Asia Cup in Fatullah on Wednesday.
Bangladesh skipper Mushfiqur Rahim hit 117 off 113 balls, sharing a third-wicket stand of 133 with Anamul Haque (77), to lift the hosts to 279-7 after India elected to field.
Kohli, standing in for the injured Mahendra Singh Dhoni, then smashed 136 off 122 balls to steer India past the challenging target in 49 overs.
The prolific 25-year-old hit 16 boundaries and two sixes in his 19th one-day century, 17 of which have been in winning causes.
Ajinkya Rahane (73) provided valuable support to his captain, adding 213 for the third wicket with Kohli after India were reduced to 54-2 by the 13th over of the day-night game.
Kohli, later named the man of the match, preferred to dwell on the team's performance rather than his own stand-out batting.
"I am very happy with the way the team performed," he said. "It was good to see everyone step up in the absence of Dhoni.
"And it was very important for someone like Ajinkya to bat through the innings. He played beautifully. He is a very positive guy and works very hard. It was a good stand with him."
Bangladesh spinner Abdur Razzak, who attended the presentation ceremony instead of his captain, blamed the evening dew for the defeat.
"We had enough runs on the board, but the dew caused problems. It made it difficult to grip the ball and we had not anticipated that. But we will need to push more for runs if we bat first again."
Earlier, Rahim hit seven fours and two sixes in his second one-day century, before he was dismissed in the final over attempting a big hit.
Anamul and Rahim came together after opener Shamsur Rahman and Mominul Haque were removed by the 13th over with the score at 49.
Anamul smashed fast bowler Varun Aaron for two sixes to long-on, then reached his half-century with another six off Ravichandran Ashwin over the bowler's head.
Aaron, who conceded 56 runs in 6.5 overs, finally found success when he bowled Anamul with the last ball of his seventh over, the 37th of the innings.
Rahim slammed two boundaries and a six when Aaron bowled next, but the batsman was hit on the chest by a full toss delivery later in the same over and needed medical attention on the field.
Aaron, who had also sent down a full toss earlier in the match, was not allowed to bowl by the umpires for the rest of the innings and finished with expensive figures of one for 74 from 7.5 overs.
Seamer Mohammad Shami was the most impressive Indian bowler with four for 50 from his 10 overs.
India are without Dhoni for the entire five-nation tournament due to a side strain suffered during the recent tour of New Zealand.
Bangladesh were missing injured opener Tamim Iqbal and premier all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, who is serving a three-match ban on disciplinary grounds.
Shakib will also miss the home team's second match against Afghanistan on Saturday.
Defending champions Pakistan, who were beaten by Sri Lanka in Tuesday's tournament opener, take on minnows Afghanistan on Thursday.

THURSDAY, Sept. 19 (HealthDay News) -- Hospitalizations for a deadly heart infection that affects mainly older people have declined in recent years, a new study finds. This was seen even with recommendations for more limited use of antibiotics to prevent the illness, called endocarditis.
Specifically, endocarditis is inflammation of the inside living of the heart valve and chambers, according to the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. The risk of endocarditis increases when people have surgery, and it's considered the most serious infection of the cardiovascular system.
There was a significant increase in rates of hospitalization for endocarditis in the 1990s, which led many doctors to prescribe antibiotics before dental procedures and certain types of surgery.
However, the American Heart Association has narrowed the recommended use of antibiotics to prevent endocarditis to only a subgroup of patients undergoing dental procedures.
In this study, Yale School of Medicine researchers looked at the annual rates of endocarditis-related hospitalizations and related outcomes among more than 262,000 Medicare patients 65 and older between 1999 and 2010.
An increase in hospitalizations for endocarditis occurred between 1999 and 2005, but there was a decline between 2006 and 2010, according to the study in the August Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
"We were surprised to see reduced rates of endocarditis hospitalizations during this time period," study first author Dr. Behnood Bikdeli, a postdoctoral associate in cardiovascular medicine, and an internal medicine resident, said in a Yale news release.
"This downward trend was consistent in all major study subgroups, but certain subgroups, including black participants, had higher hospitalization rates and worse outcomes in the study period," he added.
This racial disparity in outcomes, as well as reasons for the overall decline in hospitalizations, require further investigation, Bikdeli said.
"Clinicians should consider the risks and benefits of antibiotic use on a case-by-case basis and should share the information with their patients for appropriate decision making," he concluded.

(LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Forced to have sex and threatened with jail if she didn't keep quiet – it's abuse a woman came at the hands of the Grayson County Sheriff and a former detective.
It's a story only from WDRB -- the allegations in three civil lawsuits filed in federal court against Rick Clemons and former Detective Terry Blanton paint a picture of abuse and corruption.
Hope Shelburne says, "I just want to make sure this doesn't happen to anybody else."
She claims she was asked to come to Sheriff's Clemons' office after hours in 2009. She says the Sheriff told her he knew of her money troubles and believed she was selling hydrocodone.
She says the Sheriff told her, "I will be good to you, if you're good to me."
She says, "He asked me to get on top of his desk and, and um, start touching myself in front of him…I was pretty upset when it was going on. After it was over, he acted like it was no big deal -- he gave me $200."
About a year later, Shelburne says she was approached by then-Grayson County Sheriff's Detective Terry Blanton: "He asked me to be a confidential informant for him." When asked what that meant, Shelburne said, "I had to give up names, give him information, make drug buys. If I didn't do these things he'd put me in jail."
Shelburne says Blanton also forced her to have sex with him, saying, "We never had sexual intercourse at the office, but other places he would have me meet."
She also says Blanton gave her drugs he stole from Grayson County's evidence room: "They would have on the bags names on them, and they would say 'evidence.'"
Blanton pleaded guilty to doing just that three weeks ago.
He no longer works for the Sheriff's Department and will be formally sentenced later this month.
Attorney Rick Hardin, who represents Shelburne, tells WDRB News, "I think the shocking nature of it is, is the position of authority these people are in." He also represents John McGuffin and Marchmond Cottrell. The two men claim they wrongfully spent time behind bars because they were arrested by Blanton on false drug charges. They also say the detective stole their money and family heirlooms, which they've never gotten back.
Anthony Cash, who also represents them, said, "The common thread is that detective Blanton, former detective Blanton while he was an employee, an agent of the Grayson County Sheriff's office, was engaging in bad acts that included taking evidence from the evidence locker."
Shelburne says she was forced to have sex and work for Blanton until his arrest last year: "Yes, if I didn't do what he said he would make sure I'd never see my daughter again and I could go to jail for a really long time."
She's seeking $10 million in damages. So are the two others. Hardin explains, "The way you hold people accountable is to cause them punitive damages."
Hardin thinks these cases have only scratched the surface: "I have no idea how many other people's lives have been affected in this manner."
As for Shelburne, she says, "I just want to make sure this doesn't happen to anybody else or if it has, that they will maybe have the courage to come forward."
According to Sheriff Clemons' Attorney, the Sheriff has not yet been served with Hope Shelburne's complaint. However, she is confident he will deny all of the allegations.
WDRB News tried to speak to Sheriff Clemons directly, but was told he is out of town until Monday. We asked for a phone number to call him but his receptionist would not give that out.
Terry Blanton's attorney told us he was not available for comment today.

wow... seriously, put the blunt down and go back to school.assuming a person is racist because of the rebel flag is racist itself. apparently common sense isnt so common huh?
How can you say it doesn't represent that?
I was at the Maher show and DLH's comments were part shock value, humor and part truth. Do you really think he believes everybody with a Conf. Flag is a racist? IMO, he'stoo smart for that. Listen to what else he had to say about the southern crowds he encounters when performing. Some good stuff about them. You have to remember that it's a show. My question is this: If you know that certain people are offended and hurt by the flag, why do you find it necessary to put it out for everybody to see? Is it worth causing thosefeelings to others? I know you have your first amendment right to do it. That's not the point. I wouldn't let a piece of cloth upset me but not everybody is like that.When I was younger, I would play music real loud because I knew it would offendadults who were in ear shot of the music and I didn't care. But as I got older, I stopped doing that. I don't go out of my way to offend people now. I grew up. Having the flag in your house because it means something to you? I understand. But out in the open in your car? For what purpose? I know. Because you can. I don't think anybody is a racist because they have a flag or whatever else. Theirwords and actions are what I judge.My first impression when I see that flag is that the person who it belongs to doesn'tgive a crap about how it makes others feel. That's it. If I see the person and theylook they're also spitting tobacco or some other redneck, stereotypical activity,I would probably assume that they were ignorant. But that wouldn't be myfinal answer. I'd give them a chance to prove me wrong. Or right. I'd withholdjudgment. But first impressions are sometimes hard to overcome.
Quote from: BucsRule46 on January 19, 2008, 07:46:48 PM How can you say it doesn't represent that? Because I have an education. It's obviously open to interpretation the meaning of the flag, but the fact that a person immediately thinks you're a racist for wearing it is prejudice itself and thus makes that person a huge hypocrite.It's really very simple.Gatorgirls post was right on.
gatorgirl gave every reason (very good ones) why she is proud to be from the south. She didnt give any explanation for why it is not racist to wave a confederate flag. Germans may be proud to be German, but they dont wave nazi flags to show their pride. You are proud to be on the losing side of a war on racism. Simple as that. Im sure the cowboy boots and nuthugging jeans are enough to show people you are a proud southerner. Waving a **CENSORED** flag is just a sign of racism
Yes it is offensive to some. But those that do find it offensive *RB* are obviously naive about it. I have it on my jeep b/c to me it stands for southern pride. I'm proud that I like to go fishing and hunting and i like to go muddin in my jeep and go do all the things that country folk / rednecks do.however, im not racist in the slightest. they only people i'm prejudice to are stupid people.
Here.....why the confederate flag does not represent slavery, except to those that choose to interpet it that way. The civil war was not fought on the basis of slavery. It is commonly mistaken as such, partly due to the way schools teach the war of being one between the good (north) and bad (south) guys. Now....I do not wish to be a part of my own country, I am a proud American until the day I die. But here is some of the reasoning for the war.

Now....I do not wish to be a part of my own country, I am a proud American until the day I die. But here is some of the reasoning for the war.I provided the link, but it is a biased southern view. Just FYI. Ignore the garbage, yes there is alot of it, and read the "third lie" (regarding the meaning of the flag). I don't mean to put down Lincoln, I think he was a great president. But here's a little history recap for ALL OF US who did not live during the Civil War and only know what our textbooks chose to tell us.http://www.pointsouth.com/csanet/confederate_flag.htmDuring the War for Southern Independence, many in the North also had slaves, but refused to free their slaves until after the War. People in Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri, West Virginia, and even Washington, D.C., owned slaves; these states never seceded and were under the control of the United States throughout the course of the entire War. However, they were not required to free their slaves by the U.S. government. The U.S. Congress in 1862 even refused to pass a constitutional amendment abolishing slavery, when the only Senators and Representatives in Congress were from the North (all Southerners had left Congress to form their own nation). How could the North be fighting the War to free Southern slaves when they would not free their own, such as Ulysses S. Grant's personal slave or Abraham Lincoln's father-in-law's slaves? What hypocrisy! Even worse, Lincoln and the U.S. Congress offered to pass a constitutional amendment for the South, guaranteeing permanent slavery forever in the slave states, if only the Southern states would return to the Union. The South refused the offer. ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ Northern slaves were even exempt from Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. Furthermore, captured Southern slaves on the Mississippi River were forced to work on the plantations as slaves for the United States Army, growing cotton for Northern factories, rather than being set free. Also, during the War, just as many Union soldiers owned slaves as Confederate soldiers. Is the U.S. flag a symbol of slavery because the North owned slaves during the War? If not, then neither is the Confederate battle flag a symbol of slavery. How could the War have been fought over slavery when both sides had slaves? ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ The War for Southern Independence was fought over local self-government by the South versus centralist government by the North; the centralist government won and the local selfgovernment lost. The Confederate battle flag is the symbol of the right of the local people and the states to govern themselves and is flown in memory and honor of our Confederate ancestors and veterans who gave their lives for less government, less taxes, and Southern independence. ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ In his inaugural address of March 4, 1861, U.S. President Abraham Lincoln stated, "I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so." Furthermore, Union General U.S. Grant said, "If I thought this war was to abolish slavery, I would resign my commission, and offer my sword to the other side." ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ A war over slavery? Not hardly! ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ The Confederate States of America even offered to free all Southern slaves in return for independence; Lincoln refused the offer. The term "free state" meant free from Blacks. Northerners did not want to live with Blacks, slave or free, and many Northern states and territories actually passed laws prohibiting free Blacks from entering into them. Lincoln himself stated the opinion of the Northern people at during a meeting with a group of Black leaders during the War, saying, "There is an unwillingness on the part of our people [Northern Whites] to live with you free colored people. Whether this is right or wrong, I am not prepared to discuss, but it is a fact with which we must deal. Therefore, I think it best for us to separate." Acting upon this sentiment, Abraham Lincoln and the United States Congress purchased land, passed laws, and started shipping free Northern Blacks out of the country down to poverty-stricken Haiti. Lincoln put together several such schemes to remove free Blacks from the United States, to send some back to Africa and some to Central and South America. At the end of the War, a few weeks before Lincoln was assassinated, Union General Benjamin Butler asked him what he was going to do with all the recently free Southern Blacks. To this Lincoln replied, "I think we should deport them all." ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ Meanwhile, down South, Confederate States President Jefferson Davis and his wife Varina were adopting an eight-year-old free Black orphan boy named Jim Limber. After his mother died, little Jim was placed with a free Black family as foster parents. However, this family badly mistreated him to such a degree that the news reached the ears of the President and Mrs. Davis, who, in the middle of the War, took the time and effort to intercede and rescue Jim from this child abuse. Little Jim's wounds were doctored and he was welcomed into the Confederate White House as a member of the Davis family. President Davis himself went to court in Richmond and had free papers registered on Jim Limber, so he would always be free. Even when our President was on his way to prison for trying to obtain independence and self-government for the Southern people, he made arrangements and provided for Jim Limber's future education and care. In the Old South it was not uncommon for Blacks to take in orphaned Whites or for Whites to take in orphaned Blacks. There was a relationship between Blacks and Whites that Northerners even today do not understand or appreciate. ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ The War for Southern Independence was fought over the right of the local people to govern themselves versus a centralist government by the few, the rich, and the powerful. The South wanted less government, less taxes, independence, and decisions made at the local level where the people have control. The North wanted more taxes, more government, and centralism, with a compulsory union at bayonet point and decisions made in Washington D.C. rather than by the local people. The South stood on the principles of the Southerner Thomas Jefferson, who in the Declaration of Independence, stated, "Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government." In other words, the people should control the government, not the government controlling the people. The North stood on the principles of the Northerner Alexander Hamilton, who believed that government should be ruled by an intellectual aristocracy, maintained by the enlightened self-interest of the wealthy rather than the common people, governing themselves. Northern Abolitionists such as William Lloyd Garrison, burned the U.S. Constitution in the streets, calling it "a pact with the devil." Lincoln likewise brutally violated nearly every article and amendment to the U.S. Constitution, throwing over 35,000 Northern Citizens in prison as political prisoners, including state legislators, without cause or trial, as well as, violently closing a dozen opposition newspapers and suppressing freedom of speech. ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ President Jefferson Davis and the Confederate States Congress never did such things. The Southern people took the U.S. Constitution with them when they voluntarily withdrew from the voluntary Union and brought forth upon this continent, a new nation, where the right of the local people to govern themselves was protected. ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ ÃÂ Just as with the War for American Independence of 1776, the War for Southern Independence of 1861 was fought over "taxation without representation." The North was constantly trying to raise taxes on Southerners through high tariffs on imported goods, in order to protect the inefficient big businesses in the North which could not compete with manufactured goods from England and France with whom the South traded cotton. The South did not have factories and had to import most finished products.

Leave Ronde out of it. I'm not talking about him.From a design standpoint, I think the flag looks great. But since I know how it makescertain people feel, I'm not going to display it for all to see. It's just not who I am. I put other people's feelings above my liking a piece of cloth.Now, there are some things that I feel real strong about and if they offend or upset people,then too bad. But a flag? Nah. I'd save my offensive actions for something a lot moreimportant to me. Like my thoughts on religion. Although, even then, in person, if Isense somebody really bothered by what I'm saying, I'll just change the subject.But that's just me.

Jurupa Valley Mayor Laura Roughton got some well-deserved props from her colleagues at the Sept. 6 city council meeting.
Roughton has been relentless in the pursuit of what she described as "righting a wrong" , reinstating crucial vehicle license-fee revenue to Riverside County's four newest cities: Jurupa Valley, Eastvale, Menifee and Wildomar.
Just two days before Jurupa Valley's official July 1, 2011 incorporation, California legislators voted to redirect the VLF to law enforcement grants.
And without that revenue, Jurupa Valley was looking at insolvency within the next two years.
Over the past year, Roughton has traveled to Sacramento, attended countless meetings, testified before the legislature, knocked on doors, written letters. You name it, she did it.
In the end it came down to a crucial vote in the wee hours of Sept. 1 when AB 1098 — which reinstated the VLF revenue to the four new cities — was approved by the legislature.
But despite the kudos showered on her by her council colleagues, Roughton isn't resting on her accomplishments.
"We still have a lot of work to do," she reminded her constituents at the Sept. 6 meeting.
AB1098 is headed to the Governor's desk and it's anyone's guess if Gov. Jerry Brown will sign it into law.
"That's the trillion dollar question," Councilman Verne Lauritzen said earlier this week.
Jurupa Valley officials are urging residents to flood Brown's office with letters urging him to sign the legislation.
More information on the letter-writing campaign is available on the city's Web site: http://www.jurupavalley.org/.
Eastvale is doing its part. It has posted a form letter on the city's Web site for constituents to sign and transmit. Here's the link: http://www.eastvalecity.org/index.aspx?page=29&recordid=226&returnURL=%2findex.aspx

MIDDLETOWN Ś With time running out in the fourth quarter and the ball in Spring-FordÆs possession, Rahmi Halaby withstood a charge and converted on one of his free throws as Penncrest survived, 49-47, at home to advance past the first round of the District 1 AAAA playoffs.
ōWe did just enough to get by, just enough to get by,ö said Halaby. ōWe played hard the whole game, and we did what we needed to do.ö
Halaby, who spent as much time on the bench as he did on the court because of foul trouble, went 1-2 from the foul-line following the charge against Spring-Ford to give the Lions (15-7, 9-7) a four-point lead and clinch a spot in the next round.
ōThe more IÆm on the court, the more I can do,ö added Halaby. ōI think IÆve just got to play smart during the game.ö
Spring-Ford, which came into the districtÆs postseason with the 18th seed, went into the fourth quarter down by a 39-33 count. It made a run at Penncrest down the stretch, but saw the effort fall short in its final action of the season.
Matt OÆHara scored 23 points to lead the Rams, who finished the year with a 14-9 record after winning nine of their first 12 games. It was a season best for OÆHara, who made three baskets from 3-point range and went 6-for-6 at the foul line.
Zameer McDowell and Nick Stanek each added 10 points, with Charlton Exley kicking in four. McDowell, who joined the areaÆs 1,000-point scoring fraternity earlier this year, closed out his scholastic career with 1,089 points.
Eddie Baxter, the LionsÆ leading scorer this season with 10.1 points per game coming into FridayÆs contest, scored a team-high 19 points, including PenncrestÆs first seven points of the game.
The Penncrest senior guard, who hit his first shot of the game from beyond the arc to open the scoring, went shot-for-shot in the opening minutes with OÆHara. The Rams guard scored the first eight points for his team and finished his day with a game-high 20 points.
From the outset, it was clear that the Lions were not going to let McDowell get any open looks down low. McDowell missed his first four foul shots and went scoreless in the first quarter.
ōHe is a tremendous player,ö said Doyle. ōWe just called him Barkley all week ģ But, we felt that we were in a good place with our bigs being a little bigger than him, but heÆs so good they were all in foul trouble.ö
When PenncrestÆs big men Ś Kalvin Simpson (6-5), Ben Casanova (6-4) and Halaby (6-5) Ś were on the court together, McDowellÆs ability to effectively post-up all but disappeared. Fortunately for the Rams, HalabyÆs four fouls gave McDowell the opportunity to get his game going after a dismal start.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 36 million people relocated in 2012.
Many people stayed within the same county, and plenty of them just moved to a different state.
For the third year in a row, Atlanta ranked at the top of the list of places to move to.
Following behind was Dallas-Fort Worth, Phoenix and Orlando.
Data from Penske Truck Rental, showed that warmer climates were the biggest impetus to move last year.
"As this list indicates, U.S. residents continue migrating primarily toward warm weather areas," noted Don Mikes, Penske's vice president of rental. "The list is compiled through online consumer truck rental reservations and through our call centers."

Five trends you should start in 2013
1. Rethink your drink -- switch to green tea for more antioxidants (and it's calorie free)
2. Switch your whole grains-- use whole grains like quinoa, couscous or bulgur to add variety
3. Be simple -- manufacturers are introducing more products with fewer ingredients so the label is easier to understand
4. Be brand specific -- shopping with store brands can save you over 30% each time you shop
5. Mini everything -- miniature desserts, single portioned entrees and side dishes will be available more readily at home, in store, and at restaurants

Interactions between the tobacco budworm, Heliothis virescens, and the delta-endotoxin produced by the HD-1 isolate of Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki: Relationship between length of exposure to the toxin and survival
Authors: Dulmage, H.T., Graham, H.M., Martinez, E.
Journal, Volume, Year: Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, volume 32:40-50, 1978
The relationship between length of exposure to Bt kurstaki delta-endotoxin and survival of the tobacco budworm Heliothis virescens was determined. Tobacco budworms were able to recover from the effects of Btk toxin; however, as the length of exposure increased, the ability to recover decreased.
This study did not use Bt from transgenic plants.

As of this point I am pretty much sold on the PS4, but there are other factors that may (read as: definitely will) influence the time at which I purchase the console. Firstly, I just got a brand new PC, and I am loving playing games on that. Not to mention the price savings of most PC games. (Thank you Steam!)
However, the largest deterrent for a day one purchase of the PlayStation 4 is undoubtedly my backlog. The first thing you should know (if you don't already) is that the PS4 will not be backwards compatible with physical or digital games. So all those PSN and PS3 games you own? You have to play those on the PS3. There was recently a story on PushSquare by Sammy Barker that hit on some really good points of the backlog. Even if you have just one console you probably have a backlog. And if you have multiple consoles? And a PC? Pfft. What's worse is you may not even know how large your backlog truly is. It's easy to forgot about games which you only own digitally. If the actual case is not sitting on your shelf and constantly staring you down, making you feel guilty for ignoring it for so long, screaming, "Why didn't you chose me first?", it's easy for the title to fade from memory.
Then Sony's made our situation even worse (#firstworldproblems) with PlayStation Plus. The PS+ service provides tremendous value to gamers with many benefits on the PlayStation Network; with the most notable benefit of free games every month! And many times more than one! Do you know how many free PS+ games I have on backlog? I don't. (Seriously. I've lost count.) But it's easily more than 6 or 7 full $60 titles. And probably twice that in smaller downloadable titles. On top of that, I even have games I've purchases physical copies of that I haven't played yet! Those are the games that are currently collecting dust and haunting my dreams.
So why would I shell out a few hundred dollars to buy a PS4 when I still have a bunch of great games to play on PS3? Don't get me wrong, I want a PS4. But I have enough content to keep me entertained for quite some time after Sony's new console goes on sale. I think I'll be holding off for at least a year. And yes, as a result my backlog will continue to grow. It's a never-ending cycle I fear.
What are your thoughts? Do you have a backlog right now? And if so, how likely are you to purchase a PS4 or any next gen console at launch?

Okay, so I am just daydreaming here so don't take any of this too seriously. I would love everyone's input in order to improve upon this idea, but I think we can nab 2 stars a la 2008 Celtics with all the assets we have. So who's out there? And what 2 pieces fit together and also go along with our 3rd piece (this could be Oladipo, or a draft pick this year)? Who's actually available? The first 2 that came to mind for me were Rondo and Kevin Love. I haven't even begun to work out the salaries or put this in trade machine so be easy on me and offer better ideas.
Orlando gets: Rajon Rondo
Boston gets: Omer Asik, Mo Harkless, (wonk)draft pick
Houston gets: Jameer Nelson, Celtic player, draft pick, Hedo Turkoglu
I threw Hedo in there but I don't know that any team would want him. The idea is that we get either Cleveland or Houston involved as they are eager to facilitate a trade that rids them of Bynum or Asik, respectively.
Orlando gets: Kevin Love
Minny gets: ('14 Orl) Draft pick, Andrew Nicholson, ('16 Orl) Draft Pick, Dion Waiters
Cleveland gets: Afflalo, O'Quinn
Starting 5:
I wish there was a way we could keep one of our draft picks for this year, but this would make us instant contenders in a diluted East. I am sure there are many issues with salaries and draft picks, but I think this is a good start.

YUMA, Ariz.
(13 On Your Side) – Your vote is your voice, and on Tuesday Yuma residents elected three new City Council
members to lead the City in a new direction.
Three council seats were up for
grabs in Tuesday's general election.
Retired business owner Gary Knight
received the most votes at 52 percent.
Business banker William Craft earned
46 percent.
And retired teacher and licensed
real estate agent Gary Wright received 43 percent.
That means Wright etched out 12-year
incumbent Paul Johnson for the third and final spot.
Johnson received 42 percent of the
vote, followed by Jacob Miller, Daniel Sanchez and write-in candidate Jack
That means voters elected three new comers
with business backgrounds.
All three candidates campaigned on
the promise of bringing jobs to Yuma.
We spoke to retired business owner
Gary Knight about what direction the public wants the council to take.
"I think it says they want someone
with a little business experience," Knight said. "I think it says that we need
to take a look at ordinances and charges and fees, and see if we can make this
City more business-friendly."
Business banker William Craft
finished behind Knight in the unofficial polls, jumping from fourth in the
primary elections to second overall.
Craft says he is ready to help the
council become more business savvy.
"We need someone who knows how to
work the budget," Craft said. "We need someone to put some business
intelligence into what we need to do.
Coming in at third in the final unofficial
polls was licensed real estate agent Gary Wright.
Wright says he believes the public
expects the City Council to turn the City's economic problems around.

Wright said. "We need to be more prosperous, Yuma has so much potential. And they're tired
of complacency and they're looking for a new council with a different economic

FAIRFAX, Va. (AP)- Longtime Fairfax County Circuit Court Clerk John Frey says he's dropping out of the 2013 race for Virginia attorney general.
Frey announced his decision in a recent posting on Facebook.
The Republican says both of his GOP opponents have campaigned across Virginia for a significantly longer time than he has. He says withdrawing his candidacy is the best thing for him, his family and the Republican Party.
Frey was elected circuit court clerk in 1991. He announced his candidacy for attorney general in December 2011.
The other Republican candidates are Del. Rob Bell of Charlottesville and Sen. Mark Obenshain of Harrisonburg. Sen. Mark Herring of Loudon is seeking the Democratic nomination.

This is going to be a special year. The Defense was fantastic last year and opened up in New England poorly. They look stellar last two games. Even though Carson is not in sync just yet he is keeping drives alive much more than last year giving the defense more rest and less injuries. it will all come together. Once Marvin and Brat incorporate Scott in the run game it will help. Not for nothing Cedric started off slow giving up key downs gaining zero to two yards. To be honest for this type of offense that will evolve just in time for Pitt hopefully they do not make the same mistake as last year. Last year in the final stretch vs the worst of our shcedule they failed to get Cosby in the mix to get him ready for SD, MINN and playoffs. As soon as bernard scott is in the mix more the sooner Carson will feel like it is a new era.
Carson had an off game and we still won handily. Let's give him these two weeks vs Cleveland and Tampa and we will see what we have. Before the season I posted about Carson as MVP material and said give him 7 weeks. You will see. This is a whole new machine and give the man a few goes and he won't dissapoint. 2-1 and many positives emerging.
Only a matter of time before this machine will be very hard to stop. Support Carson and enjoy the ride.

Sports update: girls tennis loses third match to Calabasas
By Emma Redick | Sports Editor | September 5, 2012
Tuesday, the Dos Pueblos girls tennis team traveled to Calabasas and lost with a final score of 12-6.
Despite the loss, DP's doubles teams are continuing to rack up points.
Juniors doubles team, Helena Lee and Amber Sharpe swept all three of their matches. Meanwhile, sophomore Chloe Shott and freshman Adele Shraiman also had a high-scoring day as they nearly scored a sweep, losing their last match 7-6.
Although the loss to Calabasas marks the team's third loss, the Chargers are still in the beginning of their season.
The youthful team will be able to gain more playing time as they face off against Nordoff High on September 14 as part of the Santa Maria four-team tournament.

mine's the same in europe and america so NBD
But when you read it aloud, it sounds like "May Sixth, 2012"… So in Europe do they say "Sixth May, 2012"???
We put an "of" between the number and month. Remember, remember, the fifth of November, for instance!
things i perpetually mix up as a result of living my life internationally:
date format
so far nobody's complained. i figure all the numbers are there somewhere, it's all good. also incidently i never had to format my dates like that in japan, in school and on all of my time sheet paperwork it always used the european format (and i always copied my coworkers' format for dating things, so…)
(via chaz-gelf)
going through my likes from when I first made a tumblr. Why didn't I just reblog this? Why was it important enough to...
It's the face that gets me.
Seriously America, why so confusing?

First, great blog! I just discovered this blog and I'm impressed. It is great to find a place where I can read about the latest goings-on with the Rockies and their farm system. I am a Colorado ex-pat, who is stuck in the northeast for the forseeable future--as you might imagine Rockies fans in these parts are extremely rare.
Anyway enough of that...I was wondering if anyone else has come to the same conclusion I have...that the Rockies' offense isn't just bad, it is bad in historic proportions.
Aside from Helton, there is really nobody on the team that would be a starter on some of the better offensive clubs. Even with the Coors field effect, they are 3rd from the bottom in runs scored in the NL. The Rockies are averaging 3 runs a game, which puts them on a pace for fewest runs on the road of any team since at least 1999 (as far as I could find home/road splits)--by a fairly large margin. Compared to the league average, I'm guessing that this is one of the worst road performances on record--certainly in the last decade.
At this point, obviously the Rockies' are several years away from competing--I say trade everyone over the age of 30 that you can (except maybe Helton)--play even more of the youngsters and get ready to draft first next year.

Conservatives pressing ahead with NHS reforms are digging their own electoral graves, according to the Labour leader Ed Miliband.
He was speaking during rowdy Commons exchanges, after the first GP commissioning group pushed for David Cameron to scrap his Health Bill.
The group are warning the changes in the Health and Social Care Bill were getting in the way of health professional's work and was not needed to improve services to patients.
The Prime Minister played down opposition from professional bodies to his reforms, pointing out that in some cases only a small proportion of members had taken part in votes against the Bill.
The bill - which would give £60bn of NHS funds to GP-led local groups of doctors to spend on patients' treatments - is currently at report stage in the House of Lords.

Setting Up A Blog Is Tough – Use Free Hosting Or Not?March 2nd, 2014
Everyone knows there is always a catch when something says free. Just like free samples in the mall, the catch there is you have to be annoyed by the marketers, asking you if you liked their product and why you aren't buying. Although the catch is not monetary, it is in another form. Just like setting up a blog, it says free but they are actually asking for something else that is not in the form of money. They can either ask a big part of your earnings from blogging, add their name in your domain or site name, or they can make you work under them.
There are several tricks they play under their sleeves to somehow include their service for your so-called free blog. When setting up a blog, it's better to always get a self-hosted site. Even though you will have to spend less than fifty dollars a year, you will actually earn more every month; so, fifty dollars is nothing. When you set up a blog, it is as if they are doing everything they can to use you and help get them known. So they are tricking you into getting their service by telling you their service is free but they are actually trying to make you get them known. Here are some other interesting tricks you should know about starting a blog.
How Do You Start A Blog Without An Idea What It Does?
How do you start a blog when you don't even know what it is for and what it does? It will be sad if you do not know anything about it or how to do it except it makes money. Being a blogger is not just about using blog articles to earn, it is about pursuing what you love and whatever your passion. There are even people who create non-profit blog sites, they just want to keep people updated and they don't want anything in return. They completely know what they are doing, capable of taking criticism as a challenge to improve, and they are satisfied with providing service without anything in exchange.
Always remember that how do you start a blog determines your cause. The beginning will show the people your main motive, it is if you are about keeping people informed or you want to get money out of it. There are actually many people who use blog articles as their daily news and that is one thing that keeps blog articles and bloggers in the track of trends. However, some people take advantage of being a blogger and that is by abusing the subscribers and readers by asking for donations. The quality of their blogs become poor as the years and fame pass by.

Aug. 23, 2011 M5.8 Virginia Earthquake Aftershocks
Shown here in time lapse sequence are 369 aftershocks greater than about magnitude 1.0 recorded through December 31, 2011. These earthquakes were located by the USGS National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) using data provided by portable seismographs deployed by Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech), Columbia University Lamont- Doherty Earth Observatory, University of Memphis Center for Earthquake Research and Information, Lehigh University, IRIS (Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS), Cornell University, and USGS. A couple hundred of the aftershocks greater than about M1.7 were felt locally. Many more aftershocks smaller than M1.0 (and unlikely to have been felt) have likely occurred in the epicentral area during this time, but the data have not been thoroughly analyzed for events this small.

Monte Carlo derivative pricing with partial information in a class of doubly stochastic Poisson processes with marks
AbstractTo model intraday stock price movements we propose a class of marked doubly stochastic Poisson processes, whose intensity process can be interpreted in terms of the effect of information release on market activity. Assuming a partial information setting in which market agents are restricted to observe only the price process, a filtering algorithm is applied to compute, by Monte Carlo approximation, contingent claim prices, when the dynamics of the price process is given under a martingale measure. In particular, conditions for the existence of the minimal martingale measure Q are derived, and properties of the model under Q are studied.

Did you make a 2014 resolution? And did you keep it? There's been a lot of hustle and bustle on the exact "science" of a resolution, not unlike a neurosurgery or building a nano-computer. Now, I'm no expert on keeping your New Year's resolutions but I couldn't help but think of a few tips that will significantly simplify your journey to success.
So you want to do something. Anything. Then just do it! You can talk or plan or discuss the topic all you want, but at the core of every resolution is a promise to DO something differently. Start today, right now. Contribute to your resolution immediately. The faster you get to doing your resolution, the faster you'll figure out how to achieve it by the end of the year.
Let's say that you want to write a book, for the first time. So you started writing. But, you find out that books don't really write themselves. That's why you have to make a basic plan on who the characters are, what they'll do and how they'll end up. The same principle goes for practically every resolution out there. Once you begin, you have to make a plan on achieving the right results. If it's weight loss you're after, then it should be the number of calories you burn per workout and how frequently you'll visit the gym. If it's starting a business, it should be a step-by-step list of all the marketing, financials and product development you have to do to get there. Once you make a basic plan, it's easy to change and stick to because you know what you are doing.
So you've hit the gym five times this week but you haven't seen any results. Does this mean you should stop working out? Absolutely not. Don't stop. Just change your approach until you do see results. Be optimistic and believe in your ability to achieve. So what if you don't see results soon? Few people do. Real results take time. But in working towards real results, you are already building habits that will benefit you in the long-run. So stay positive no matter what!
Cheesy much? Absolutely. But I kid you not, keeping your resolutions this year is 100% doable if you apply the three steps above. Don't wait for another year to pass by. Start now and you'll stop dreaming about a new you and become a new you in no time.
