Three Canadians have reached the South Pole in record time.
The trio said they set a new records and that they suffered through whiteout conditions, temperatures as low as 40 below---and did all this on a a steady diet of deep-fried bacon and butter.
The men suffered altitude sickness, vertigo and massive, painful
blisters. They kept themselves fueled with a 7,000-calorie-a-day diet
of deep-fried bacon, cheese and huge chunks of butter.
According to BBC News:
"Ray Zahab said he and his teammates completed the 1,130-kilometre
journey from Hercules Inlet on Antarctica' s Ronne Ice Shelf to the
South Pole in 33 days, 23 hours and 30 minutes, finally arriving
"If you took a cloud, wrapped it around your head and then
duct-taped it, that' s what a whiteout is like," a weary yet animated
Zahab, 39, of Chelsea, Que., said by satellite phone from Antarctica.
"It was exhausting."
Zahab is best known for his epic 6,920-kilometre run across the
Sahara Desert in 2007, which was the subject of a documentary narrated
by actor Matt Damon entitled Running the Sahara.
Tom Sjogren, founder of ExplorersWeb.com, a New York-based website
that compiles statistics on adventurers' feats, said the men beat the
record of 39 days, seven hours and 49 minutes set by American Todd
Carmichael just last month.
"They have definitely broken the record," said Sjogren, who uses a
variety of materials, including photographs of explorers' GPS
co-ordinates and their logs, to help verify records."

Texans activate Ed Reed from PUP list
Houston, TX (Sports Network) - The Houston Texans activated nine-time Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed from the physically unable to perform list and released 20 players, including veteran cornerback Elbert Mack, in a series of moves designed to get their roster to the NFL-mandated limit of 53 for the start of the 2013 season.
Reed, 34, signed a three-year, $15 million contract this offseason but underwent arthroscopic surgery to repair a small labral tear in his hip. Had Reed stayed on the PUP list, he would not have been able to play for the first six weeks of the season.
Mack signed with the Texans this offseason after posting 14 tackles and an interception with the Saints last season. Signed as an undrafted free agent by the Buccaneers in 2008, Mack has 103 tackles and six interceptions in 65 career games.
Others that were released were defensive ends Keith Browner and Delano Johnson, tight end Jake Byrne, cornerback Roc Carmichael, fullback Tyler Clutts, linebackers Cameron Collins and Mike Mohamed, wide receivers Andy Cruse and EZ Nwachukwu, guard/centers Tyler Horn and Alex Kupper, running backs Dennis Johnson and Deji Karim, safeties Orhian Johnson and Jawanza Starling; defensive linemen Daniel Muir and Chris Jones, and offensive tackle Nate Menkin.
In addition, the Texans placed wide receiver Alan Bonner, offensive tackle Brennan Williams and linebacker Trevardo Williams on the reserve/injured list and waived defensive tackle David Hunter and wide receiver Mike Smith with an injury settlement.
Brennan Williams and Trevardo Williams were the Texans' third-round and fourth-round picks, respectively, in this April's draft. Bonner was the second of four sixth-round selections.
The Texans start the 2013 regular season on Sept. 9 on the road against the San Diego Chargers.

Eurex has licensed International Index Company's European iTraxx indexes in preparation for the launch of an exchange-traded contract based on the European credit default swap (CDS) index before the end of the year.Eurex signed the exclusive licensing agreement today, which covers the European iTraxx indexes launched by IIC last year. The Europe CDS index is based on a weighted portfolio of the 125 most liquid investment-grade European CDS.
Eurex said that the launch of an exchange-traded CDS derivatives product would be "a major step in the shaping of the global credit derivatives market."
Rudolf Ferscha, chief executive of Eurex, said: "We are the first exchange to list credit derivatives products. We believe that credit derivatives based on iTraxx indices will meet investor demand for liquidity and transparency in the credit markets and facilitate credit risk management at low cost."
David Mark, chief executive of IIC, added: "The next phase of product design for a futures contract will be crucial to ensure wide buy in. We expect that, following the recent launch of funded notes on iTraxx indexes, the coming credit derivatives futures contract will attract new participants to this dynamically growing market, thus adding further depth and liquidity."
IIC also collaborates with Dow Jones to produce Asian, Australian and Japanese CDS indexes.

PLAYERS: Richard Childress
WELCOME, N.C. – Richard Childress Racing (RCR) announced today that NASCAR Drive for Diversity driver (#NASCARD4D) and NASCAR Next member Ryan Gifford will make his NASCAR Nationwide Series debut at Iowa Speedway in the No. 33 Menards/Rheem Chevrolet. With backing from the third-largest home improvement store in the United States, the 23-year-old driver is set to compete in his first-career national series event at the Newton, Iowa, track on Aug. 3. Gifford is in his fourth full season of competition in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East, where he notched his first win at Richmond International Raceway earlier this year. Gifford also drives a late model on the dirt circuit for Team Dillon Racing (TDR). "I'm thrilled that Menards and RCR are giving me the chance to race in my first Nationwide Series event," said Gifford. "Menards has done so much for young racers over the years and I'm proud to be able to represent them and their employees at Iowa Speedway. I can't thank them enough for believing in me and giving me an opportunity to showcase my racing skills." Gifford became the first African-American in NASCAR K&N Pro Series East history to earn a pole position at the inaugural race at Martinsville Speedway in 2010. Last month at Iowa Speedway, the current Rev Racing driver was announced as a member of the 2013 NASCAR Next class, an industry initiative to help spotlight NASCAR's rising stars. The Winchester, Tenn., native started racing go-karts at age eight and competed in the World Karting Association from 2000-2004 before moving to dirt late models in 2005. It didn't take long for Gifford to find success on dirt, earning three poles and four top-five finishes in his first season. Gifford made his debut for RCR in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East in 2009 competing in four events. Since then, he has earned one win, one pole award, 15 top-five and 19 top-10 finishes in just 48 starts. "I have watched how hard Ryan has worked at the Team Dillon Racing shop and what he's been doing on the track the past few years," said Richard Childress, CEO and president of Richard Childress Racing. "He had some good finishes racing in the K&N Series races for RCR a few years ago. I watched him race and win dirt track races with TDR and I've always been impressed with a driver's ability to race on dirt. "This is a great opportunity for him to get in one of our Nationwide cars and be very competitive at Iowa. None of this would be possible if it wasn't for Menards. We appreciate their support and involvement in having Ryan race in the No. 33 Chevrolet that weekend." -Richard Childress Racing PR

The Odd Gentlemen are Pleased to Announce Their Next Adventure: King's Quest™
Today is a great day in the history of The Odd Gentlemen. We are ecstatic to announce that we are working on a new King's Quest game. We are huge King's Quest fans, and personally, it is my favorite game series of all time.
I grew up playing the games at my Uncle's house, and still remember the joy of discovering you could type in "eat carrot," and Graham would actually respond. The day when I solved the Cliffs of Logic before my Uncle did was an accomplishment I'm still proud of today. These games were brimming with wonder, humor, engaging puzzles, and delightful gameplay all wrapped up in a charming story for players of all ages to explore. We are proud to continue this tradition in a new and fully reimagined King's Quest.
In the new story King Graham – revered as the greatest adventurer to ever live - shares his life's adventures with his curious granddaughter, Gwendolyn. It is through these tales that Gwendolyn discovers the true greatness of her grandfather.
You can also check out the Sierra teaser here.
Follow us on twitter for the latest updates.
We can't wait to show you more. And Uncle David, thanks for sharing the magic with me all those years ago.
-Matt Korba, Creative Director King's Quest & founder of The Odd Gentlemen

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - State health regulators have shut down a women's clinic in New Orleans for repeated health and safety violations.
Department of Health and Hospitals Secretary Bruce Greenstein late Tuesday issued the order against the Gentilly Medical Clinic for Women, requiring it to immediately halt operations.
A telephone message left at the clinic was not immediately returned.
DHH revoked the clinic's license May 25 after an investigation found repeat violations. The facility was under a similar order issued in January 2010 for failing to comply with minimum standards for clinics that provide abortions. DHH says the January order was being appealed when a subsequent inspection led to the May action.
DHH spokeswoman Lisa Faust says the clinic did not appeal the May action "so there is no legal recourse."

What is happening for Ministry of Mercy
- Reina continues with her medical residency in the maternity department, working long hours and delivering about 6-8 babies per day
- Mateo has pneumonia at this time. Please pray that Marilin would feed him properly to keep his lungs from getting infected. He is making small weight gains with his new feeding tube.
- Marilin continues in our home, and needs encouragement as she struggles with ordinary life and decisions
- Khole is growing and Janet continues to care for her and the family at our house. Her daughter, Eileen continues to help out
- Lester is learning English and continues to oversee the clinic/house while Reina is in school.
- Mary is writing two grants for possible funding for 2015 opportunities to grow our clinic as Reina will begin to see patients in July. There is much preparation and financing to make the clinic ready for patients.
- Pastor Eric from Elevation church and Pastor Brett at Redeemer in Grass Valley in are working with the pastoral leadership in Nicaragua to make plans for planting a church and bible teaching in Nicaragua. Meetings are being planned for future trips…Look for more information.
- All in all, life is ordinary, yet exciting as we see the Hand of GOD working even in the quietness and humdrum of life, He is molding us and teaching us, and giving us the strength to carry on, and do the things He has called us to. Ruth
A message from Ministry of Mercy director and editor: Mary Nicosia
Is GOD doing anything at all? Sometimes in the ordinariness of life, we wonder and even for long for GOD to do something. Sometimes Christians call this time, a time in the desert, where my heart is dry, and it appears as if nothing is going on. You come home from a missionary trip, and get back into life, and it seems dry in comparison to what you had been doing during your time you were on the mission field away from home.
However, we are home, and the mission field is not dry, but even more so, as you learn to trust and build your faith in GOD in the humdrum of life. Being home works both ways, in Nicaragua and in America. Life is back to normal in our home in Jinotepe as Reina continues to finish up her medical residency, Janet continues to care for Khole and our household, Lester continues to struggle with the household chores, study English, and continue to look for a job outside the home. Marilin is struggling to, to find her place, to continue to care for Mateo, letting go of the anxieties, fears, and disappoints she has had before she came to our house. Pray for her as she must work through all that is in her heart and mind of who she is, and what she wants to become, and still care for herself, others, and for Mateo.
I am home too, back in my life, as a wife, mother, grandmother, and working full time at the hospital, and as director of Ministry of Mercy. Does my relationship with JESUS become dry in the humdrum of life? I am learning that it is not. It is a gift to have the opportunity to move out of our little space and time and visit another country, another culture, and share the love of JESUS in this way. But what about home…Is GOD doing anything in our life?
I believe FAITH in CHRIST becomes more triumphant in the trials we face in the day to day life. I actually have learned this in the most humdrum way, GOD has spoken to my heart, in my inner being. I want to share what HE has said…
I was on my way to our Monday night community group. John was not with me, and I was contemplating not going. However, as a community group, we have a commitment to one another to join together in fellowship. So I went. We were a small group, and our leader suggested we study the book of Ruth for a month. I was content to do this and we became excited about reading and talking about the first chapter. I went home, wondering what GOD would have for me, in this story of a women so long ago. Would this story have an impact in my life. I remember asking GOD to reveal to me how this story is pertinent to my life at this time. On Tuesday morning He did just that…How amazing GOD is in our daily life.
What came to mind as I listened to Alister Begg preach on Ruth was this statement he made; "Tell me how lofty GOD is for you, and I will tell you how little HE means to you." I had to ask myself, what does GOD mean to me in my everyday life? Does my theology stand that GOD is always, in all places, in a quiet fashion, working out HIS providence to me daily in the humdrum of my ordinary life? Can I even answer these questions?
I looked at the life of Naomi and saw an ordinary woman, wife, and mother. She followed her husband to a land different from her own, was involved in taking care of her family in the midst of trials, and tribulations (famine, lawless society, Judges 21 and Ruth 1). She lost both her husband and her sons, and left with no means of support, with 2 daughters in law. Where is GOD now? Does her theology of GOD and His providence still hold true. GOD says He will never leave you or forsake you…what about now? I remember when I lost the baby I was carrying. I had a still-born at 9 months. I remember the doctor telling me, the baby is dead inside of me…Is GOD still superior in my life? Is He still working His goodness, mercy, love, and providence in my life? I tackled that question, through my grieving over the loss of my son. I came out of this grieving to see that GOD's presence is very much in my life even in tragedy. In tragedy, who do you have to lean on, to call upon, except GOD? In the story of Ruth, she saw this in Naomi, In the tragedy of loss and hopelessness, my faith in GOD triumphs, my theology of GOD stands. I can look up at the dark cloud of trouble, despair, loss, sin, and hopelessness and see that it is "big with mercy, and will break in blessings on my head (truthforlife.org/resources/daily-devotionals/September 12,2014)." Because I know my Redeemer (JESUS) lives and is ever making intercession to GOD on my behalf, and His promises as real for me as they were for Ruth and Naomi. "Be of good courage, I have overcome the world." says JESUS.

Patch 4.4 Kassadin:
Kassadin Notes Patch 4.4
League of Legends Ranked ELO Hell and Beyond
From the soap box of the Riot box I am now going to go over the real issues that have been a plague throughout season 3. From Elo Hell and its problems throughout the community, whether bronze or diamond.
One of the things that Riot did is they made it so that even if you are a Gold player you can still have your MMR(Hidden Points) placing you in bronze. This was designed to ensure that a carried person that is playing in lets say diamond V is not going to move up if they are at the skill level of a silver V. How they structure this is simple enough to understand from a certain view.
I am a Bronze I – I have a MMR Score that places me above my current Division.
My guess is I am Rated as a Silver IV or Silver III. – How do I know this? Ok so when they queue you up with other players for ranked match you can look at the players you will compete against. So when I get into a match I go here to see my match up.
I always get queued with no lower than a silver V and as high as a silver I. This means my match up is against the better of silver division as well as a win gives me a high amount of League points. If I lose I will see less points drop off my total.
Win/Loss Points Determination:
Win vs a higher ranked ream = More points
Win vs a lower ranked team = Less Points
Loss vs a higher ranked team = Less Points Lost
Loss vs a lower ranked team = More Points Lost
How to get out of the Clutches of being under ranked:
There is only currently one way to regain the position you are in and that is to win a lot. If you are stuck in a lower rank than you are you have to keep playing and try to raise that hidden MMR until you can get back to the right division you are in.
Preventing the chances of falling below your division:
Try not to play to many games if losing all of them. If you lose 3 in a row take a 2 hour break and come back after the system records it. If you keep playing and losing you can dig a hole and never get out. Don't stop playing if on a win streak. The more you win the faster you hit promotion and the less likely you will fall out of division. Also you get more points for win streaks and hit that promotion series faster. If you lose 2 in promotion series best of 5 maybe take a break and wait till you are ready to go in and play with your wits about you. Nothing worst than being down on yourself before a big game.
Anyways I just wanted to write something up to encourage those of us who have been needing a boost of confidence.
Singed: The top lane troll choice
The Do not chase concept is easy right….So why do people still do it? The secret to beating a singed whether proxy or not is that he has to over extend meaning if you build early magic resist with your jungle you can shut him down.
Good choices vs a singed would be Teemo because of the great poke and speed he gets. If you have to play the bruiser rush the magic resist and let him push the wave so you can far under turret if he tries to proxy, call for an assist from both mid and jungle and get him shut down so you can free farm your way back in. Also try Rumble and kennen vs him, just avoid the flip and wait for 6 to hard engage him.
League of Legends – Who is to Blame for loss?
For a longtime now it is customary for the gamer's in our midst to blame others for a loss. However many times it is usually a matter of how each person performs in lane and in team fights. To better understand the possible reasons for a loss lets ask ourselves these questions.
In what way did the jungle help and aide early game and did he keep up in lvl?
Did the support ward properly and use their abilities to set up kills and deny farm to the adc?
Did the adc cs well and did they take advantage of mismatches and possible leads in lane?
Did the apc ward mid properly? Did the apc offer ganks to the lanes and successfully feed the adc in lane?
Did top provide the proper build to compliment the team composition and to help carry the team to a win?
Did the team take objectives?(Towers, Baron, and Dragon)
Did the team present proper team fight tactics such as focus the apc or adc to shut down the damage?
Did the team split push when the enemy was grouped on a lane? If not was it the best decision to split push or defend?
Some great jungle tips are the following:
I love to play pantheon in the jungle and I love to gank after blue on bottom if purple side or top if blue side. Usually if I have a good adc support it gets adc first blood and that means a lot for the rest of the game. I then go wolves, wraiths, red, and sometimes a jungle may go for my red which is why I like to get first blood to make up for it. However sometimes a jungle is just not thinking and my red wil be there when I move over that way. I notice a Lee sin player will usually invade my red anyway so I will go steal theirs after first blood. The goal on most jungles is to monitor the lanes and farm the monster camps, but if your team is losing lane then you have to react with a gank more often. I have changed games just ganking early and often. You lose the level and that hurts but if your lane is fed you did a good job and can go back to farming. Remember that blue on mid is a great way to help them get ahead and if you can take away their blue it makes it better. Just remember counter jungling is risky. So if you go in drop a ward and have vision on the enemy so you can counter it better.
In lane you should be farming and harrassing, and a support is supposed to deny farm from the enemy. So get in there and force them to miss the cs. Top needs to ward and know the location of mid and jungle, it is usually the downfall of top that they do not ward and watch the map and get ganked easily by mid and jungle. Ping a missing enemy and make sure people know it!
If you play your role correctly and ward than you did your job. If someone else didn't do the same don't cuss at them, but encourage a new strategy. After all it is a team game.
Soraka Match: Worst Players NA
First Perfect Game
Blame the Jungle for Everything
It is the usual reaction to losing that it is the junglers fault for everything going wrong. New flash, the jungle tries to create kill opportunities for the lanes and has to farm in order to do that.
If the jungler doesn't gank on your lane there are two reasons why, you are either pushing hard on the lane and he can't give you the gank without turret diving or the lane is warded and He can't sneak in for a chance to gank.
It' amazing how a team can turn against a jungler for not ganking, but there are times when a jungler is not helpful and they offer no aid at all.
I was playing as Hecarim in the jungle, I did not call jungle it as forced on me. I have played jungle before and know how to do it, but I am a support. So I am used to capitalizing on the mistakes made in lane.
So my bottom lane is pushing hard and they keep getting ganked by lee sin. So of course they turn on me because they don't even use the mini map to see him walk through a river ward by dragon. I ping 4 times and even start to head down from wraiths.
Instantly Lee Sin has taken both of them down and the team turns on me. They start talking bad about me and telling the other team I just camp the monster camps.
I gave teemo on mid 5 ganks and h died each time to Galio. I gave ganks to my friend on top who was not warding and countered by Olaf while playing Riven. So he needed my help. Every time I ganked I would either have to take the kill or watch my team commit suicide.
Thing to Learn from jungling:
It is not the junglers responsibility to protect you from your own stupidity. They can assist you if you give them the chance to, but if you blame them for not being in lane ask yourself this. Am I making it easy for them to get to my lane? Do they have the opportunity to gank or am I making it hard to?
How can I get my jungler to gank? Example: Wards are down and you buy vision to give him a back way to the side grass. If they can't see him they can't beat him. Wait for a mistake and let the jungle or support initiate. Then clean up as adc and you get fed and your support jungle gets assist gold.
So quit crying about the jungle and learn how to make the gank easier and more often!

BUFFALO, N.Y.–( release) U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul, Jr. announced today that a federal grand jury has returned a 23-count Indictment charging two companies and nine individuals with various federal felony charges relating to the asbestos abatement project conducted at the Kensington Towers apartment complex, 1827 Fillmore Avenue, Buffalo, New York. The companies charged with criminal violations are identified as Johnson Contracting of WNY, Inc. (Johnson Contracting) and JMD Environmental, Inc. (JMD). The individual defendants include Ernest Johnson, 39, and Rai Johnson, 32, both from Buffalo, NY and the President and Supervisor of Johnson Contracting (respectively); Evan Harnden, 42, a supervisor of JMD and Brian Scott, 31, JMD project monitor, both from North Tonawanda; and Henry Hawkins, 41, of Buffalo, NY and Chris Coseglia, 25, of Niagara Falls, NY; also project monitors of JMD.
The remaining defendants consist of current and former public officials responsible for certifying the project's compliance with applicable asbestos removal laws and regulations. Charged in the Indictment are Donald Grzebielucha, 56, and William Manuszewski, 57, both of Buffalo, NY, City of Buffalo Building Inspectors during the abatement project, and Theodore Lehmann, 65, of Kenmore, NY, an Inspector with the New York State Department of Labor, Asbestos Control Bureau.
Each of the 23 federal charges carry a maximum penalty of five years in prison, a fine of $250,000, or both.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Aaron J. Mango, who is responsible for the trial of the case, stated that the Indictment recognizes the federal Clean Air Act, along with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and other federal and state agencies, as closely regulating the removal of asbestos. The reasons for the law and regulations include that asbestos is a known human carcinogen known to cause a wide range of life threatening illnesses, including mesothelioma and asbestosis.
In June of 2009, Johnson Contracting was awarded a sub-contract to conduct the asbestos abatement project at Kensington Towers, a six-building complex owned by the Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority, located on the East side of Buffalo. In an environmental survey conducted before the commencement of the abatement project, it was estimated that each building at Kensington Towers contained in excess of 63,000 square feet of hazardous asbestos-containing material.
The Indictment alleges that from June 2009 to January 2010, defendants Johnson Contracting, Ernest Johnson, and Rai Johnson performed and supervised the stripping and removal of asbestos-containing material at the Kensington Towers. In Count 1, these defendants are accused of conspiring to violate the Clean Air Act and defrauding the United States, by (among other things) instructing workers to dump asbestos-containing debris down holes cut through the floors at the buildings, failing to wet the asbestos during removal operations, and instructing workers to leave asbestos-containing material in the buildings knowing that the buildings were intended for demolition. Counts 2 through 7 of the Indictment charge these defendants with substantive violations of the Clean Air Act for the above conduct.
In the same time period, defendants JMD, Harnden, Hawkins, Coseglia, and Scott, agreed to perform as a sub-contract of the abatement project the air sampling and project monitoring at Kensington Towers. Count 8 of the Indictment alleges that these defendants conspired to violate the Clean Air Act and to defraud the United States by (among other things) by failing to conduct proper air sampling, and by creating false visual inspection reports certifying that all asbestos had been removed from the buildings. Counts 9 through 14 of the Indictment charge these defendants with substantive violations of the Clean Air Act based on their roles as project monitors during the final visual inspection process at the buildings. Counts 15 through 17 charge defendants JMD and Hawkins with making and using false documents during the course of the asbestos abatement activities.
City of Buffalo Building Inspectors Donald Grzebielucha and William Manuszewski are charged in Counts 18 (defendant Grzebielucha) through 22 (defendant Manuszewski in Counts 19-22), with making and using false final inspection reports relating to all six of the buildings at Kensington Towers. The defendants specifically certified in the final inspection reports that all asbestos had been removed from the buildings, when in fact, the defendants knew that all asbestos had not been so removed.
Finally, Count 23 of the Indictment charges defendant Lehmann, an Inspector employed with the New York State Department of Labor, Asbestos Control Bureau, with concealing the improper asbestos abatement activities that were occurring at Kensington Towers.
"The nation's environmental laws are intended to protect not only people who live and work near abatement sites, but those employed in the abatement industry itself," said U.S. Attorney Hochul. "In this case, the Kensington Towers complex is in close proximity to a city neighborhood where people live as well as a hospital, a school and a park. This Office, along with its law enforcement partners, will continue to enforce laws designed to ensure the safety of all."
"Exposure to asbestos can be fatal. Its unsafe disposal endangers human health and can seriously harm the environment," said William V. Lometti, Special Agent in Charge of EPA's Criminal Investigation Division in New York. "The defendants are charged with conspiring to illegally allow large amounts of asbestos to be removed unsafely in an attempt to cut costs. Anyone who tries to save money by breaking the law will be vigorously prosecuted."
"This is a multi-agency investigation, and is a prime example of how working together with our state and federal partners ensures the safety of not only the Kensington Towers neighborhood but all Western New York communities," said Christopher M. Piehota, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. "The United States government takes very seriously the health and welfare of our citizens with regard to environmental safety."
The Indictment is the culmination of an investigation on the part of Special Agents of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency - Criminal Investigation Division, under the direction of Special Agent-In-Charge, William V. Lometti; Special Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, under the direction of Special Agent-In-Charge Christopher M.. Piehota; Special Agents of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development - Office of Inspector General, under the direction of Special Agent-In-Charge Rene Febles; and Investigators of the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Police, BECI, under the direction of Captain David Bennett. Additional assistance was provided by the New York State Department of Labor, Asbestos Control Bureau.
The fact that a defendant has been charged with a crime is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

We've been saying it for weeks now, and here's the evidence: the LG-built Nexus 5 will indeed be running Android 4.4 KitKat when it is released in October. You may remember our post recently that showed the new status bar and icons we'll see in Android 4.4 KitKat, but here's the first time we've seen it on the Nexus 5. Log files for the new device have also appeared, and we've got them for you below in the picture gallery. This particular Nexus 5 is running on the T-Mobile network.
The screenshot isn't particularly exciting to look at but it does tell us a few things if you know what to look for. The same Key Lime Pie debug icon appears as the one seen in the Korean keyboard screenshot in the Play Store (which was promptly pulled by Google). Remember, KitKat was codenamed Key Lime Pie right up until the official KitKat announcement and many development devices obviously haven't changed icons yet. Who knows, we may even see the KLP icon in the official version.
You can also see the same light gray default status bar and the build number is listed in the log files as KRS74H, indicating a September 13th build date. There's a new Bluetooth icon sitting on top of the Google Authenticator icon which may mean some changes to security features like passwords and lock screen access when connected to another device via Bluetooth. Qi charging is indeed supported, the screen and resolution checks out, and everything else thus far reported looks to be confirmed by the log files as well. The originator of the screenshot and log file is the website myce.com, who also claim to have found evidence of an SD card...
What do you think? Will you be buying a Nexus 5?

Kevin Ware is no longer a member of the Louisville Cardinals basketball program. This according to multiple sources and him tweeting about it on the mean streets of Twitter.
In case you're not as hip as me, that tweet means that Kevin Ware is transferring to Georgia State.
Also, after a few moments passed, Ware would then tweet some of his new teammates about "turning it up" or something — I am far less him in the turning of vertical directions area, though. So that's on you to figure out.
I have often joked about America's weird need to make Ware a hero. That was never intended to be a knock against Ware the person or player, but just my way as wondering why the nation's media had such an infatuation with him.
Oh, that's right, a horrible injury in the NCAA Tournament and a crazy need to profit off it via glorifying Kevin Ware.
Let's just hope that a new program, with less limelight and a fresh start is enough to keep Ware going and healthy.
Ware sat out last season with an injury. It is unknown if he will be immediately eligible to play, but it (should be) is safe to assume that a medical redshirt and all he went through (hardship waiver) could warrant it.

A simple resolution, also shortened to S. Res., is simply a resolution that does not have the full force of law behind it and therefore is considered a nonbinding position. Simple resolutions can be passed by a legislative body for a number of reasons. They can be used to clear up logistical issues or as political tools.
In most cases, a simple resolution is used to set rules for a governing body. In the U.S. Congress for example, either the Senate or House of Representatives may pass a simple resolution to set a schedule, set up a committee or for some other housekeeping measure that is usually not controversial. When a simple resolution is used in such a manner, it normally receives very little attention from the general public.
In Congress, because simple resolutions represent nonbinding positions of that particular legislative body, they do not require approval from the other house, or approval from the president. If, for example, the Senate takes up a simple resolution passed by the House of Representatives, it is considered its own, independent document, unrelated to the Senate proposal. This is true even though the wording in both proposals may be identical.
Though a simple resolution normally does not demand much attention from the general public, there are exceptions. For example, Congress made headlines in 1997 when both the House and the Senate passed simple resolutions concerning the Iraq War and a sustained troop build up. Though the issue did not affect U.S. policy, it represented a direct conflict of opinion between the majority of the Congress and the president. Despite this extreme case, most of the time a simple resolution is passed with no fanfare and broad support.
A simple resolution can be used as a political tool in some cases. For example, one party, thinking its members will benefit from a particular vote, may wish to get members of the other party on the record concerning an issue. Usually, the voting on a simple resolution is done by a roll call vote, forcing congressional members to either vote yes, no, or abstain. In such cases, certain members may then have to go back to their respective districts and defend their votes.

The partial federal shutdown is still in effect.
It's Columbus Day, so many state workers are off, too.

ASIA/IRAQ - Death of the Chaldean Patriarch emeritus Emmanuel III Delly.
Baghdad (Agenzia Fides) - Cardinal Emmanuel III Delly, Patriarch emeritus of Babylon of the Chaldeans died in a hospital in San Diego (California). He was 87 years old. The news was given by sources of the Chaldean Church. "Cardinal Delly", says to Fides the current Chaldean Patriarch, Raphael Louis Sako I, "served the Chaldean Church for more than 60 years with dedication, first as a priest and then as Bishop and as Patriarch. He suffered moments of difficulty: the revolution in 1958; the wars in the last decades; the persecution of Christians followed by the invasion of the U.S.A.. In all this time he remained loyal to his country and to his people, he did not abandon his flock, he remained with his faithful, praying, helping, encouraging them".
In the coming days a solemn requiem mass for Cardinal Delly will also be celebrated in the St. Joseph Chaldean Cathedral in Baghdad. The funeral will most likely take place in the United States. The majority of the Patriarch emeritus' relatives moved to the U.S.A., and many of them live in Detroit.
Patriarch emeritus Delly was born in Telkaif, Archeparchy of Mosul of the Chaldeans on September 27, 1927. He graduated in theology at the Pontifical Urbaniana University and canon law at the Pontifical Lateran University. He was ordained a priest on December 21, 1952 by Cardinal Pietro Fumasoni Biondi in Rome, at the Pontifical Urban College of Propaganda Fide, he returned to Baghdad as secretary of the Patriarch on December 30, 1960. He was elected to the titular Church of Paleopoli of Asia on December 7, 1962 and appointed Auxiliary of Patriarch Paul II Cheikho, receiving episcopal ordination on April 19, 1963. Since that year, as Bishop, he became a member of the Second Vatican Council. In October 2002 he resigned as Auxiliary Bishop for age limit, but a year later, on December 3, 2003, he was elected by the Chaldean Bishops as the Patriarch of Babylon, while Iraq was going through a terrible time in history, after the U.S.-led military intervention led to the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime. During his patriarchal ministry, in August 2004, there were bloody attacks against churches in Baghdad and Mosul. (GV) (Agenzia Fides 09/04/2014)

As high inflation continues to tighten its grip on personal finances, Corbenic Consulting has come to the rescue by adding a new iPhone App to their personal finance range. 'My Budgets - Expense Tracker' follows previous Corbenic Consulting finance apps such as the 'Spending Log' App, which was recently featured in the Sunday Times App list for a second year.
Create Budgets and Track Progress
Unlike 'Spending Log' however the new 'My Budgets - Expense Tracker' App is all about setting budgets and keeping to them rather than analysing your spending habits. A user just needs to create as many budgets as they need for things like 'Eating Out' and 'Clothes' and then log their purchases against each budget as they are made. The Budgets can operate over a week, a month or any other time period the user decides. Progress can be tracked using the Apps graphical 'Filled Tubes Display' which shows how much of each budget has been used up so far.
Filled Tubes Display
The Filled Tubes Display shows the user how much of each individual budget they have spent so far. There is also a Total Tube showing how the expenditure is split amongst the individual budgets. So that progress can be tracked over the budgets time period the App also features a time indicator against which the tubes can be compared ; This shows whether it is time to reign in that spending in order to keep within Budget.
With 'My Budgets - Expense Tracker' people can easily create a Budget and stick to it. My Budgets - Expense Tracker 1.0 is available now worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Finance category.

Manila Bay Polar Panorama
A 360° panoramic view of mi hometown, Montalban. Well, a relatively small portion of the 312.70 km² mountainous town.
Adding More Variety To This Boring Blog: Polar Panoramas
Made this last year (sounds a long time ago, when it was actually just last December 2011, which was last year). I used this for the 'thank you' 2011 post (click here please if you wish to see the collage) and since then I was planning to create some more polar panoramas.
New submenu.
Anyway, aside from the cinemagraph project (click here to see my first attempts), which I haven't made any progress yet, I'll include and consider this as a new project. And you can, as usual, see a link through under the 'Start exploring' menu titled polar panoramas where they will be filed under.

High levels of the personality trait of neuroticism have been observed in
patients with anxiety disorders, suggesting that the trait and such disorders
might be related. In fact, the trait and generalized anxiety disorder could
well be due to the same genes.
This hypothesis comes from a study headed by John Hettema, M.D., Ph.D., an
assistant professor of psychiatry at Virginia Commonwealth University. A
report of the results is published in the September American Journal of
Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by excessive, chronic worry
regarding multiple areas of life and includes symptoms such as irritability,
muscle tension, sleep disturbance, and difficulty concentrating.
To find out if generalized anxiety disorder and neuroticism are genetically
related, Hettema and his colleagues conducted a large twin study.
They studied about 8,000 identical and fraternal twins, including twins of
both genders. Subjects participated in either face-to-face or phone interviews
to find out whether they had had generalized anxiety disorder at some point in
their lives. The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III-R was used
for this purpose. They were also assessed for neuroticism with the short form
of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, which contains 12 items that overlap
with some of the diagnostic criteria for generalized anxiety disorder such as
irritability, nervousness, and excessive worrying.
The researchers then used the interview results to determine whether
subjects who scored high on the personality trait of neuroticism had also
experienced generalized anxiety disorder at some point in their lives. They
found that was the case in many subjects, suggesting that neuroticism and
generalized anxiety disorder might be genetically related.
They then looked to determine whether a coexistence of neuroticism and
generalized anxiety disorder occurred more often in identical than in
fraternal twins. They found that there was such a relationship, suggesting
that the same genes that cause neuroticism could cause generalized anxiety
disorder, since identical twins share 100 percent of their genes.
"Our results suggest that the genetic factors underlying neuroticism
are nearly indistinguishable from those that influence liability to
generalized anxiety disorder," Hettema and his colleagues concluded in
their study report.
One of the implications of their findings, they added, is that people with
high levels of neuroticism might be a useful starting point to hunt for genes
for generalized anxiety disorder.
As for the study's implications for current psychiatric practice,"
Although most psychiatrists do not routinely measure
neuroticism," Hettema told Psychiatric News, "if there
are indications of high neuroticism by whatever means, this would suggest that
screening for generalized anxiety disorder would be a good practice. However,
patients do not generally present with complaints of being neurotic, but
rather because they have actually developed a psychiatric syndrome like
generalized anxiety disorder, so the cat's already out of the bag."
The study was financed by the National Institute of Mental Health.
The study, "Genetic and Environmental Sources of Covariation
Between Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Neuroticism," is posted online

AAF Proposes Regulatory Reform That Promotes Economic Growth
Printer-friendly version
AAF Proposes Regulatory Reform That Promotes Economic Growth
WASHINGTON – In conjunction with The Atlantic's event, Manufacturing's Next Chapter, AAF Director of Regulatory Policy, Sam Batkins, outlines the regulatory burden on the manufacturing industry, how it directly impacts consumers, and explains the pressing need for regulatory reform to steer course to smarter regulation.
Regulatory Impact on Manufacturing
- There are 12 significant regulations that will impact manufacturers, tallying at least $9.2 billion, on the books for this year alone;
- Over the last 10 years, manufacturers have absorbed $359 billion worth of regulations;
- Nearly 100 of these regulations with an impact of $100 million or more came from the EPA, Department of Labor, and Department of Energy.
Regulatory Impact on Consumers
- EPA estimates Ford owners can expect vehicle prices to increase by more than $2,100 above the baseline because of new efficiency standards.
- A new final rule read: "EPA estimated a $10 per person year increase in food costs in the U.S. due to the total annual impact of the RFS2 program."
Framework for Reform
- Establish a cumulative cost baseline and attempt to incorporate new cost burdens within the current regulatory framework of each agency;
- Strengthen the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) by expanding procedural steps to all agencies allowing small businesses to suggest regulatory alternatives, or even non-regulatory measures that would still achieve the benefit goal.

In the Book of Life
Dear Mr. Farah,
It seems that your name is in the Book of Life, and that God has plans for you. Otherwise, He would have let you keep your head up your a–, as He has so many others following the path of Satan, and continue on the path of death ["Confessions of a former communist"].
It appears that WND is part of the plan God has for you, along with all the trials and tribulations that come with the territory of proclaiming God to the heathen.
God bless.
