Building Relationships in Our Communities
We see ourselves making a positive impact in our communities. We work with local governments and community organizations to make our vision a reality.
It's important for us to build trustworthy and sustainable relationships with institutions and individuals in the communities that surround us. Genentech provides charitable contributions in support of local organizations and events, supports group employee volunteer activities, and creates our own programs to meet the unique needs of our communities.
Volunteering & Events
Our employees actively support the community through volunteer work. Each year, Genentech supports several targeted group volunteer activities in support of various health causes and provides material and financial support.
- Oceanside Volunteer Day
On October 13, 2010, Genentech's Oceanside location hosted their 3rd annual Volunteer Day. Genentech Oceanside partnered with several community-based organizations and employees completed projects to ensure that the company plays a positive role in the communities in which we live and operate. There was a diverse set of projects to choose from that allowed employees to leverage their time and expertise to make a meaningful impact.
GENE Academy Tutoring Program
Genentech launched the GENE Academy in 2008 to provide tutoring and support to elementary school children from the South San Francisco Unified School District. This year GENE Academy will be tutoring more than 100 students.
Strike Out Cancer 2012
During the 2012 baseball season, Genentech participated in the ninth annual Strike Out Cancer program in partnership with the San Francisco Giants and The Wellness Community. Since its opening season in 2004, Strike Out Cancer has raised more than $700,000 to help support people with cancer and their loved ones.
Strike Out Cancer is a national education and empowerment program encouraging people affected by cancer to seek out information about new treatments, support networks and educational resources. Strike Out Cancer is dedicated to providing patients and their loved ones with resources to ensure they can build the team support they need to manage their disease.
Bike for Breath
Every year, Genentech employees participate in Bike for Breath, a one-day bike ride through San Mateo County.
Bike to Work Day
Genentech hosts an annual Bike to Work Day. An event held every May in conjunction with National Bike Month, Bike to Work Day encourages bicycle commuting with organized rides, energizer stations, tricycle races, prizes and an outdoor BBQ.
Genentech employees participate in a tricycle race as part of Bike to Work Day celebrations at our South San Francisco location.
Genentech employees gather outside to celebrate Bike to Work Day at our South San Francisco location.
Block Out Cancer Program
On April 12, 2010, there was a center court celebration that marked the end of a successful first year of the Block Out Cancer program. Modeled after the Strike Out Cancer program, Genentech partnered with the Trail Blazers to make a donation to the Portland-based Children's Cancer Association (CCA) for every blocked shot during the 2009/2010 season. Genentech also donated 100 tickets to allow some of the children and families CCA serves to attend the game.
Former Trail Blazer Jerome Kersey plays basketball with children from CCA.
Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day
In April 2010, Genentech hosted its 18th annual Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day, a day during which children of all ages are invited to campus to spend the day in their mom or dad's workplace. This year the day included science demos and a "mad scientist" stage show to spark interest in the field of biotechnology.
The daughter of a Genentech employee participates in an experiment with Oceanside Manufacturing Technician Sarah Holdridge on Take our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.

Critic & User Reviews
Very Good
Amazing but not addictive.

The story is unusual and keeps you interested in finding what is actually going on. Some cutscenes are shown as film-framed stills which kind of confused me at first. I was wondering why their mouths weren't moving while they talked until I understood what was going on. There are several difficulty settings so you can play the game any way you like, whether going for the pure challenge or just enjoying the visuals. The fighting is perfectly placed so you don't get overwhelmed or bored. I was expecting to not be able to put the controller down and to have an all-nighter, but this was not the case. I was slightly disappointed to realize that I didn't want to just keep on playing. I ended up playing in spurts here and there and, despite being blown away by the ending, I didn't really feel compelled to play again to find all the hidden witch coffins or to experience a harder difficulty or to collect other trophies. It was a very interesting game, just not interesting enough to suck me in all the way.
One specific problem with the game were the load times. Everything required an unusually long loading time as if you were playing a PSP game. Even if you picked up a new item, you would have to wait for a load before it showed you what you picked up. This didn't hurt the game too much but it just made you feel like something wasn't working right. I hope to play the game on the 360 to see how it is there and to see if a rumble-pad makes it better.
I think everyone should experience Bayonetta at least once.

An amazing, beautiful game.

Most people prefer the xbox 360 version for its faster loading times and its better frame rate, but honestly out of putting 30 hours into Bayonetta, I do not mind the longer loading times, and I don't notice any frame rate issues. I prefer the PS3 version simply because of the controller, and the feel the PS3 gives when I play.
You play as Bayonetta, a witch that slays angels. The action on this game is probably more intense then the action in any other game I played. The graphics are incredible and the art work is extremely unique and very well done. The environment and atmosphere to the game is always amazing.
The main character is very different from any game I played. She has a weird shaped body, wears strange clothes, has butterfly wings when she double jumps, can transform into animals, can slow down time, she moves very...err sexual, and she is very cocky.. But it just adds on to what makes this game so great and unique.
The story is kind of corny and might not make very much sense, but it is still interesting and fun to watch. I found myself watching each cut-scene throughout the whole game. Some cut-scenes more then once.
Basically in almost every level, there's either a horde of enemies or a boss fight every 30 seconds. But it is fun and very challenging (challenging if your playing on normal mode or higher) When certain enemies die you can pick up their weapons and use them for a short period of time.
A lot of people compare this game to Devil May Cry, and there are a few people from devil may cry that worked on this game, but this game gives me more of a Sega feel the whole time. The music sounds like a Sega game, the artwork feels Segaish, You collect halos that will remind you of rings in Sonic, there's a character named Eggman, the intense speed will remind you of sonic. Etc. Beautiful game.

On a positive note, the action in the game is great. Often times it does get a bit repetitive until the game throws in a new weapon or the motorcycle and missile chapter. Definitely a button masher but what kinda game like this isn't. I found though that during the load times I saw that the triangle button would often come up as if the circle button was pressed. I have not had that issue in any other game but it didn't impact the game because I am just button pressing anyways.
Load times are some what ridiculous too, especially for the in game menu or just to pause it. I'm guessing that's because the game doesn't install to the PS3.
Overall, it's a shame that these minor hiccups could make playing this game a miserable experience. I would definitely play a sequel to this if these issues were addressed.

The way this game is put together is also very clever. If you have the desire to search for the alfheim portals (or just use a guide), then the game is designed so you have master a certain skill before you can get the item, which helps you in your in-game fighting as well. The game basically teaches you strategies along the way, which is definitely needed as there are some craaaaaazy enemies in this game that can be killer to defeat if you don't have the right skillset.
The only reason I give the game a nine is that the last boss is kind of ridiculous. If you thought the game was OVER a little prematurely and chose not to buy any healing items, then you're basically screwed. Also, the comic book style cinemas are kind of corny, but they fit naturally into the game I think, plus it's intermixed with full-motion sequences, so it didn't bother me.
Anyway, if you want a fun, funny, action-packed game, Bayonetta is a good way to spend a few days.

No camera control
Character can be difficult to see amidst the effects/scenery
Combat is repetitive button-mashing
Story is incomprehensible
Everything has a loading screen, including the Pause menu
Enemies are carbon-copies of each other
Levels are well-designed
Graphics are very good
Boss fights are entertaining
The only reason I could recommend Bayonetta is the spectacle of it. If you want to disarm a 50'-tall angel, then use his battle axe like a stripper pole as you twirl around shooting giant pistols from your ankles until your hair/clothes turn into a demon portal, which eats the angel then explodes in a spray of fireworks and butterflies, then this game is for you.

The fighting system I feel is set up that you basically NEED to be good at getting the combos down or else you won't get good medals. You can say that I should've beat the game before I decided to rate this game, but I feel like maybe my review can save people the week of having to waste time on waiting for the game, playing it, and then sending it back. Don't bother wasting time on the game, and that's coming from someone who usually tries to play different games and get trophies.

The actual gameplay is pretty fun. Combos are fun to pull off and its decent graphically.
The game is also hampered by its long load times. Even accessing the pause menu requires you to wait.
Bayonetta could have been okay but it is destroyed by its poor attempt at a story and the excessive load times whenever you want to do ANYTHING.

They did a good job with the models and other things. Apparently, they spent a lot of money on her booty and boobs and movement fluidity, and had no money left for the story, so the story leaves a lot to be desired. And also be warned, this game has a lot of "luscious parts" it seems as if they made it for horny single Japanese guys.
Some people like the game, some others don't. I was like "meh" and played it just to play it. And yes, the game is a huge button smasher.
You should try it, maybe you will like it.
Oh yeah, one more big thing, SEGA ruined this game for the PS3. They did a very very very very Bad import. Everything in the game is "Loading..." I swear, I must have wasted 2 hours of gameply just for the loading.
You press the Menu Button: Loading (about 8 seconds)
You press Start BUtton : Loading (another 8 seconds)
Between each main stages: Huge amount of Loading
So yeah, Go work Sega, Good work.

Bayonetta: 10% Game 90% Loading Screens

On top of all that, the game instructed me that it had been automatically "saving" at various intervals. I quickly found out that this wasn't true after I had accidentally chosen not to continue after dying. Once I had started the game up again, it brought me all the way back to the halfway point of the level I had just been playing, which forced me to play it through all over again. And if you think you can save the game whenever you want to avoid this, you're sadly mistaken! The game will only allow you save when it gives you the option.
Console differences? I love my PS3 , but graphically, the 360 version is superior, it doesn't have horrible load times like the PS3, and I've heard that the PS3 "chugs" from time to time. The irony of this is that the PS3 version SHOULD be better, and I'm giving the game 1 star because the developers didn't forth any effort in fixing these issues.

Fight controls and moves are great.
The story is utterly incomprehensible to a sane person. That, I am used to! But it doesn't guide you in any way towards the gameplay. This is totally unacceptable.
At one point I was killing dozens of enemies but was dying at the end of the level because the level was time based and I was supposed to do or finish something before my time expired.
The problem is that I have no idea what that thing was. I couldn't find a walkthrough online to guide me and even if I did, I know there would be more levels in the future that would just throw me in the mix without any clear direction.
I hate referring to walkthroughs all the time just to understand what a game wants us to do.
Also, the cutscenes are mostly 2D and they suck. The 3D cutscenes are some of the worst I've seen graphically since I stopped using my PS2 3 years ago! All the cutsecenes I saw so far were boring, pointless and marginally irritating. I was playing Ratchet and Clank: a Crak in Time before this and boy! What a difference in cutscenes!
The game ender: Bayonetta does not look hot! in fact she doesn't even look human. Just a weird malformed mockery of a human female. I could have taken all the other flaws and tried to work my way through them but but an weird disproportioned chick trying to act like she's hot is a turn off in any place. Be it a nightclub or my PS3.
This game is sealed and on its way back to GameFly.
There are plenty of better games out there for me to play.
Dont believe the fake reviews unless you like incomprehensible story and gameplay, ugly cutscenes and weirdly deformed women that insult regular and Anime artists.
Oh BTW: The soundtrack during the fights absolutely sucks! Crazy Japanese school music.
Hope this helps you,

Eau Claire, WI 54702-4004
Student Speakers Chosen For Winter Commencement
(715) 836-4741
(715) 836-2900
MAILED: Dec. 9, 1998
EAU CLAIRE April Anderson and Tara White will deliver the "Response from the Class" at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire winter commencement ceremonies Dec. 19.
Anderson, a senior communication major from Winona, Minn., will speak at the morning ceremony for graduates of the College of Business and the College of Professional Studies. Her speech, titled "The Intersection," talks about how life after graduation will be one intersection after another. If students make the right turn, they should go with that opportunity, and if they make the wrong one, they will know not to make the mistake again, she said.
"I want students to know their potential is enough," Anderson said. "They may not have enough experience, but since they're graduating, it's obvious they have the potential to excel."
Anderson is a student building manager at Davies Center and interned at a public relations agency this past summer in Minneapolis. Her sophomore year, she was awarded a National Residence Hall Honorary, which includes the top 1 percent of student leaders on campus. After graduation, she hopes to work at a public relations agency.
White, a communication and Spanish major from Marshall, will deliver her speech, titled "Out of this Spotlight and on to a New Stage," at the afternoon ceremony for graduates from the College of Arts and Sciences and those receiving master's degrees.
White's speech relates her university life to the theater. "The university has shaped our roles as students and has prepared us for our future roles," White said.
White served as president of the campus organization AIESEC and was a resident assistant for two years. After graduation, she plans on furthering her international opportunities in Spain and then attending graduate school for international relations.
Commencement ceremonies will begin at 9:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Dec. 19 in Zorn Arena.

L.A. Galaxy win 2012 MLS Cup!
The day started out cloudy, but in the end the sun was shining down on arguably the best team in U.S. soccer history as the Los Angeles Galaxy came back to beat the Houston Dynamo 3-1
in front of a record crowd at the Home Depot Center on Saturday in Carson. The back to back MLS Cup title gave the Galaxy their fourth MLS Cup title overall and caps off the Beckham era with a four year run that included two Supporter's Shields for the league's best record, three appearances in the MLC Cup Final, and two championships.
The Dynamo proved to be a worthy opponent, maintaining possession throughout the first 20 minutes as the Galaxy tried to work through early kinks. The Dynamo were more than happpy to let Galaxy midfielder Christian Wilhelmsson get plenty of touches that proved to be fruitless, esentially taking Juninho and Mike Magee out of the game for long stretches. The Galaxy appeared to finally break through in the 30th minute when Robbie Keane, who was dangerous throughout the postseason, found Landon Donovan in front of net for what appeared to be a tap in. Donovan hit the ball just wide of the net.
Houston's Calen Carr broke through right before the half with a stellar strike to the top shelf to put Houston on top 1-0 heading into the half. The 2012 L.A. Galaxy seemed to feed off of adversity and the Houston goal may have been exactly what the Galaxy needed going into the break to get going.
In the 2nd half the Galaxy appeared poised and dangerous and just like all year, a 10 minute stretch of fury was too much for Houston to fend off as the Galaxy surged towards another title. Robbie Keane bolted a shot into the top of the net and the crowd exploded, however he was clearly offsides. Although the goal didn't count, the momentum had shifted and the L.A. attack was on. In the 60th minute Juninho sent a marvelous cross through the penalty area and Omar Gonzalez headed home the first Galaxy goal. Moments later Omar headed another ball towards goal that Robbie Keane, with his back to the goal, struck for a wonder goal into the top of the goal. The go ahead goal was called off because the ref called a dubious penalty on Omar Gonzalez's header. The Galaxy shoudl have taken the lead, and moments later did so as the onslaught continued. In the 65th minute Ricardo Clark was called for a hand ball in the box and Landon Donovan stepped up to put L.A. up for good.
The L.A. Galaxy were in complete control and would not relinquish. Robbie Keane continued to attack and send fear into the Houston defense, and Houston keeper Tally Hall brought him down in the in the 93rd minute which resulted in a PK. Keane buried it officially securing the cup for L.A.
1. Bruce Arena is a legend. Before the season, I predicted a championship for the Galaxy. Back in May, a title seemed like a pipe dream. Talent was never the issue, but I think that motivation was lacking earlier in the year. It may have been a case of a championship hangover which was probably the result of such a dominant 2011 campaign. Once the team bottomed out in Houston someting changed. One cannot say enough about the job that Bruce Arena did this year righting the ship. The L.A. Galaxy was clearly the best team in MLS in the second half.
2. Changes are coming. Changes are coming but do not expect the Galaxy to be down for long. Beckham is leaving. Donovan may be on the way out. Gonzalez will be a loan target. All of these changes will impact the face of the team but AEG is not going to sit idle. I can see Kaka becoming a target of the Galaxy as well as Frank Lampard. Whoever they get, you can bet that L.A. will restock and not rebuild.
3. The switch to the highest seed hosting MLS Cup was the right move. For the second straight year the MLS Cup Final had an electric atmosphere due to the fact it was a home game for the higer seed. Last year was technically a nuetral site, predetermined by the league but it ended up setting the stage for this year's format. After the debacle in Toronto in 2010 and after the success the past two years, the blueprint is simple. We shall see if MLS makes the right and obvious decision to keep the final at the home of the highest seed.
On to the offseason which promises to be action packed for the Galaxy!

Brain foods are: proteins and fiber. They don't make you smarter, but:
Protein provides energy
Fiber keeps you feeling full = better concentration and alterness
Substitute soy based bars for high-fat, high-sugar granola bars
To encourage children to drink milk, serve a lower calorie/lower sugar chocolate milk, in moderation. Studies show chocolate milk to be a better option than sports drinks for refueling.
Replace high fat potato chips and fried snacks with lower calorie baked snacks
For special occasions, serve chocolate dipped fruit cut in a cupcake shape

"Best Free Blu-ray Player"
- 10
- 10
I have tried many media players from VLC to Windows Media Player with K-Lite Mega Codec and everything in between. DAPlayer is one of the few freebies that looks good and is loaded with features. Other freeware counterparts you can tell are free because they look cheap like VLC.
If you're looking for cons in DAPlayer then you are pretty much nitpicking. Some may not like the dark theme but it looks better than VLC no matter how you want to look at it.
Overall this is a must have for Blu-ray owners. It looks better than VLC with a ton of codecs built it. On top of that DAPlayer also allows you to manually look up subtitle files (srt) for Blu-ray videos (mvk) if it doesn't automatically detect it. Windows Media Player in essence fails at this.

Something that I love about Covenant House is that we have lots of different programs and services in order to meet the varying needs of our youth. This provides staff the ability to connect with youth in different phases of their journey.
I recall meeting one particular youth early in my employment with Covenant House who was very proud to claim he held the record for the most stays at our Crisis Shelter. This young person had stayed at our Crisis Shelter about 34 times in five years but was now overage for our Shelter (youth can stay with us up to their 24th birthday). However he stayed connected to us by accessing the Community Support Services and Brief Service (this is a service run by our shelter during the overnight hours) which offers hot soup and pastries to youth not staying in our Shelter.
One night, the youth showed up for some soup and a snack but this time he wasn't bragging about his multiple stays in Shelter, he was bragging about being sober, how great he felt and how clear headed he was. He also told me he had a new place and had been living there the past 2 months. He was excited to talk about this as it was the longest that he had been independent. The youth went on to say he would miss "Covey" and he was grateful for all the resources he was connected with while he was staying in Shelter. The youth said he still continues to access many of the supports that he would have never known about if it weren't for Covenant House.
When the youth left that night, I was the one who was so excited to tell my co-workers about my inspiring conversation with this youth and I was happy to pass on the positive news that he was off the streets and doing so well. Sometimes it may take a young person many tries before they leave the streets and I am happy we are here to stand with them as the work towards independence.

The fake blood looks like real blood and stays on for hours ! Great product.
Posted by glamazonmakeup on Jul 29th 2014
I have used this blood by itself and as a base for my own. It has great viscosity and color.
Posted by Sheila on Nov 7th 2013
Perfect in color, thickness, and realism. I added this inside the wounds, spattered across face,and streaked it through the hair on my zombies. People who got close up thought the wounds and blood work looked real. The make up lasted all night looked even better after sweating (the blood runs) I was very happy with the results. This was my first time using this brand now it is the only one I will use
Posted by Bel on Dec 18th 2012

When younger children eat dinner with their families, they are less likely to become overweight than other kids.
Kids benefit from a family meal way beyond
the time the last clean dish is put away.
Kids are less likely to:
Even the simplest meals - like cereal and fruit - qualify as family meals. The goal is to get everyone to the dining room table and to spend quality time together. Here are tips to pull it off:

Mark Collins - Afghanistan: Canada's Forgotten War
Out of sight, our of mind (no Canadian media there as there's no longer a "death watch"). Some very pertinent observations by Matthew Fisher of Postmedia News–who was never a death watch type:
As Obama did not alter the calendar [more here], Canada's current and near-term plans for Afghanistan will not change. The second of four eight-month rotations of Canadian military trainers began about six weeks ago. About 910 troops mostly drawn from the Royal Canadian Regiment battalion in New Brunswick have replaced a group that was built around a Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry battalion from Alberta.
The number of trainers, who are mostly in Kabul but also in the relatively quiet western cities of Herat and Mazar-i-Sharif [Mazar's actually in north], will almost certainly shrink by several hundred soldiers when the Royal 22nd Regiment — the Van Doos — take over from the Royals just before Christmas. NATO's International Security Assistance Force needs far fewer of them going forward because the Afghan security forces are already bigger than they are going to be post-2014.
The Harper government set a ceiling of 950 soldiers for the training mission, when it was suddenly announced half a year before the combat mission in Canada ended last summer. What has not been worked out yet is whether a few of the Canadian trainers whose jobs will disappear this fall might be replaced by other Canadian soldiers with specific skill sets such as special forces.
Parliament has been greatly concerned lately about reports that soldiers from Joint Task Force Two (JTF2) or the Canadian Special Operations Regiment may be deployed to Afghanistan when Canada's trainers return home in 2014. The loud opposition that this likely mission has provoked is curious. Having angrily predicted 16 months ago that the training mission would be extremely hazardous and therefore must not go ahead, the opposition — and the media, for that matter — have shown virtually no interest whatsoever in what the trainers are actually doing over there. Nor has there been interest in what Canada has been doing diplomatically in Afghanistan, although it remains by far Ottawa's most expensive foreign policy initiative.
What has also been ignored in the furor over a possible Canadian military presence in Afghanistan beyond 2014 is that the actual number of special forces operators that might end up there is tiny — somewhere between a handful of soldiers and a couple of hundred, tops. Admitting that the numbers would be small would, of course, undermine all the righteous outrage [well, not necessarily–the NDP want us out of Afghanistan, now, period–and I doubt the Liberals could stomach any combat role]…
Afghanistan: A SOF Landing for Canada? [also notes some troop rotation]
Another forgotten war that actually turned out well in the end.

One Response to "Mark Collins - Afghanistan: Canada's Forgotten War"
MarkOttawa Says:
May 4th, 2012 at 2:34 pm
Terry Glavin does not forget:
'Spring Break In Afghanistan: Pundits Gone Wild.
"Today three of the five terrorists on America's most-wanted list live in Pakistan. Bin Laden's heir, Ayman Zawahiri, is the only one "hiding." Mullah Omar, the leader of the Afghan Taliban, commutes between bases in Quetta and Karachi where he enjoys the backing of the Pakistani intelligence service, the Inter Services Intelligence Directorate (ISI) . . .The latest addition to the most-wanted list, Hafeez Saeed, the head of Lashkar-e-Taiba, does not even make any pretence of hiding. He is a regular on Pakistani television and often addresses large crowds of enthusiastic supporters at rallies the ISI helps to arrange. . ."
Ah, but "the tide of war is receding," as they say. What better time then to, oh I don't know. . . publish a book of Taliban poetry? The Guardian story has to be read in its entirety, otherwise you will think I'm making things up…'

Two weeks ago, Mayweather put on a clinic of various forms, in his defeat of Sugar Shane Mosley. Many would point to the slippery, angled, boxing gameplan that Mayweather executed, or the sonic speed jabs that he continually snapped Mosley's head with. But what impressed me the most of Mayweather in this fight, was the way in which he endured getting socked-up during the first couple rounds of the fight. While Mosley may have been simply trying to make the show look good during the later parts of the fight, he brought his scrappin' shoes early on; and it worked. The fact that Mayweather's nose didn't swell from the connections Mosley made early on, may have said something about the power of the punches, but Mayweather's knees told a different story.
Despite the shock of the early thumping, Mayweather did something impressive: he went forward. Though he was tactical about it, Mayweather never shied away from putting his nose back into the "knuckle zone" (the knuckle zone ends where the other fighters knuckles can't reach). And as the fight went on Mayweather met less gloved knuckles in the knuckle zone, which in turn provided additional space for him to run his mouth. In the end, Mayweather showed that he has a champs chin, and that is the primary reason that he is still the WBA World Welterweight Champion.
Now back to what I first said about Mayweather having a big mouth. Muhammad Ali seemed to start the whole "loud mouth boxer" routine, but if you know anything about Ali, you know that he was so witty and brilliant that he may have been pulling a trick on someone that the person would only recognize far after the fact. Ali did this in all facets of his boxing career, and in the ring, nobody knows Ali's mouthtricks better than George Foreman (See: The Rumble in the Jungle and The Rope-a-Dope). I bring this up because of Mayweather's ongoing claims that he, and not Muhammad Ali, is The Greatest of All-Time (G.O.A.T.)
Now first of all, let me get this out, "Fool, Please", as a response to Mayweather's claim (or "Please, Fool" if you want to sound stiff and grammatically correct). Now obviously Mayweather is trying to fertilize his financial legacy through making this salacious claim, but out of respect, he needs to at least always add a disclosure when he spouts that mess. Something like: "I'm the Greatest if you don't count the fact that Ali changed the World through this simple, elegant, and brutal sport, but also laid the foundations for me to make all the money I make from running my mouth and backing it up with my fists."
In a recent interview Mayweather spoke of the fact that he never had to use any rope-a-dope tactics to win any fights like Ali did. Once again, "Fool, Please!" Men shouldn't hit women, and women shouldn't try to fight men. And though Mayweather is not a woman, at 5'8" and "not enough" pounds Mayweather might as well be a fancy young lady if he were to take a full-on haymaker from George Forman in his prime; and I'm right there with him at 5'11" and "not' enough". If you lined up every man on the planet and gave them the choice of taking a punch from Mike Tyson in his prime, or George Foreman in his prime, at one glance every man would shift to the Mike Tyson line (though that's a bad situation all around)
Now I'm sorry. I like to watch all sizes of gentleman lace the gloves up, but unless Mayweather had a slingshot, a stone, and a righteous blessing from God upon all the generations that shall follow the Mayweather lineage, then Floyd couldn't beat not one soul that Ali fought. And I don't want to here nothin' about "pound-for-pound" or "strictly boxing" --Ali just deserves his respect all-around.
Though the glories of the Heavyweight boxing division are on life support at best these days, when it comes to the G.O.A.T. claims, you at least have be bigger than a goat, and nobody should be able to call you "Small Fry". But I'll give Mayweather this: he's got plenty of fertilizer, and he's undefeated as a pro. Now if he spouts some poetic fertilizer and stands out front for immigration rights or something, then…he'd still get knocked out by Foreman.

Congressional financial disclosure documents released Thursday show that Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) owes between $100,000 and $250,000 on his home mortgage in the old mining town of Searchlight. Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) owes more than $500,000 on a pair of mortgages that were financed in 2010 for homes in Arizona and Arlington. And Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) is down to owing just over $15,000 on the mortgage for his family home in Brooklyn.
Those are just a few of the details found in the tens of thousands of pages of documents released Thursday on members of Congress in their personal financial disclosure forms, an annual exercise aimed at revealing any potential conflicts of interest. This year's documents, for the first time, include particulars of lawmakers' mortgages on their primary personal residence.


text: Jim (Casey Affleck) is a perennially gloomy 27 year-old aspiring novelist from Goshen, Indiana who moved to New York City in hopes of finding success with his writing. After two years of barely making a living as a dog walker and no success with writing, he defeatedly decides to move back home to his parents' house in Goshen. Jim's 34 year-old brother Tim (Kevin Corrigan) is a recently divorced father of two young girls whose business recently failed. Tim has never left his parents' home and he works in the ladder factory that's owned and operated by their pessimistic father Don (Seymour Cassel) and overly cheerful mother Sally (Mary Kay Place). Jim has no interest in the family business and he resists pressure from Don to start working there. After an argument between the two brothers on whose life has been more pathetic so far, Tim, having previously made repeated unsuccessful attempts to commit suicide, drives his car into a tree in hopes of ending his life; he is gravely injured and hospitalized. Jim now finally gives in to Don's pressure to work in the factory by taking over Tim's duties who isn't able to work. He also takes over Tim's job as the coach of a girls basketball team; the team, which has not scored a single point in the last 14 games, includes both of Tim's daughters. While Tim is in the hospital, Jim finds out that Tim's nurse is Anika (Liv Tyler), a good-hearted single mother with whom Jim had a brief sexual encounter in the past. Anika is sympathetic to Jim's problems, whether real or perceived, and she decides to stand by him in encouragement even when he tries to convince her that it's in her best interest to not be around him. At the ladder factory, Jim is introduced to his uncle Stacy (Mark Boone Junior). Stacy is a drug dealer who prefers to be called "Evil" and sells drugs in the factory. Being somewhat impressed by Evil's demeanor, Jim tries to help him with his drug dealing business but with disastrous results. Believing Sally to be the drug dealer, the police arrest and imprison her. The eternal optimist that she is, she finds happiness in her new surroundings and makes friends with her fellow prisoners. Despite working a job he hates and feeling responsible for his mother's imprisonment, Jim slowly allows his monumental depression to be dismantled by Anika and finds himself believing that life is better than what he had believed it to be so far.

- Why physical scientists and biologists should interact! From the structure of DNA to the development of magnetic resonance imaging, many major advances in biology and medicine have come about by collaboration between physical scientists and biologists. To help promote this area, Clare Bryant (Veterinary Medicine), Ray Goldstein (DAMTP) and Ben Simons (The Cavendish Laboratory) are holding a one-day meeting targeted at late stage graduate students and early stage postdocs with the specific aim of illustrating how multidisciplinary approaches can deliver novel insights. The meeting will consist of talks by scientists using multidisciplinary techniques to showcase what is happening within the university. More details and free registration

Duluth lift bridge, and sent me this postcard to add to Orphaned Postcard Project. Soon after Krissy from Duluth adopted the card. Krissy spends lots of time down near the lift bridge at Canal Park. She enjoys sipping a smoothie from Amazing Grace, which sounds like a wonder local café, while watching the ships come in. And just on the other side of the bridge is a beach where she can swim.
And not only did Krissy send the "orphaned" postcard back, she sent three follow-up postcards featuring different views of, and from, the bridge! The first shows a ship coming in from atop the bridge. Krissy says that this area holds her heart. I love the passion she has for the industrial side of her city!
And then there is the lovely night view where Krissy likes to stroll while on dates. She writes that kissing on the bridge is very romantic :-) I'm falling in love with Duluth already!
Such wonderful spirit and enthusiasm. I so enjoyed all these postcards and look forward to continued correspondence with Krissy.
Sending postcards worldwide for recipients to send back to me with a message and postmark.

What an impressive bridge!it seems to have an important place in people's heart there, and I'm not only speaking of room!ReplyDelete
I have enjoyed hanging out there as well. Duluth is a neat town. :)ReplyDelete
I'm going to snap a picture of the bridge and mail the photo to you. Not because I do it better than the photographers, but because they're doing maintenance on it. :)ReplyDelete

Thinking of having a few people over for an eventful start to the weekend? Considering playing beer pong? Wondering how many people you can have over without Life Safety or your FR giving you a citation? Take a look at the Saint John's University Alcohol Policy. The policy is laid out clearly and helpfully.
Also be sure to take a look at the Good Samaritan Policy, which allows a student to call for help for a student who has overdosed on alcohol or drugs with minimalized disciplinary action. Don't take our word for it, read the J-Book!

I've seen this movie, but only once, which I think wasn't enough for me, since I was not able to fully understand some of the parts..
In some ways, Pan's Labyrinth is quite reminiscent of the story of the Bridge to Terabithia - the story of submerging one's world into the mind's imagination/overcoming reality with one's fantasy. The significant difference is the setting: Bridge to Terabithia's story happens in a modern setting, while Pan's Labyrinth is set into the past in a civil war, if I remember correctly.
Pan's Labyrinth was a good movie for me, not bad and not overwhelmingly fantastic either. It's a movie that can make one think, and depending on the viewer, it could be a happily-ever-after story or a story of tragedy.
To those who haven't watched it but are planning to, be prepared for some minor blood and gore. The story is set in a war, after all, but the movie does not do anything to censor some bloody violence; you can very well expect some elements of civil war such as torture, etc. It's not ultimate blood and gore, but it's just that it's not much of a children's movie as most might expect.
All in all, I think it was still a worthwhile movie for me. It shows how even a little girl can find the strength to hold onto in the midst of a world she can't understand, even when reality seems to go against her. In the end, you'll realize that you have the strength inside all along to do what is right.

Similarly, three girls who were kidnapped and then held captive in a Cleveland home within close proximity to their families is yet another reminder of the importance of recognizing something out of the ordinary in a neighborhood and then caring to report it.
Franklin, Osage and Lyon counties were overrun the past week by law enforcement officers from across the state. Hopefully their efforts yielded the evidence needed to convict the person guilty of the horrific crimes.
Some rural areas in Franklin County have substantial separations between one neighbor and the next, but that distance still shouldn't prevent people from paying attention to their neighbors and providing their own informal neighborhood watch. Hearing a gunshot, no doubt, is more difficult in the country where those sounds are more common, but it still ought to garner the attention of neighbors. While there is a fine line between awareness and nosiness about our neighbors, a prudent level of concern wouldn't be out of line. If only we could go back to the days when most homes had a porch, and those porches served as the catalyst for incoming and outgoing neighborly connections.
A new social media offering focuses on helping neighbors connect with each other so they can communicate and coordinate. Neighbors across the country are using the private online network to: "Track down a trustworthy babysitter, get the word out about a break-in, organize a neighborhood garage sale [and] ask for help finding a lost pet and plan for an emergency." Those sound like items that could be done face-to-face too, or at least by telephone. Sadly, society today relies more heavily on online or other indirect methods to reach out to neighbors rather than facilitating actual conversations.
Many rural neighborhoods don't have a majority of their residents online to facilitate such communication nor do they want to do so. Neighborliness might not be as common as it once was, but it should never subside to the point people don't care about the well-being of those living nearby.
The public must be ever-vigilant and alert to what is going on around them, particularly in their own neighborhoods, and report anything that seems suspicious or unusual to law enforcement. Such proactive behavior could help forestall the onset of another tragedy — whether it be one similar to Franklin County's recent quadruple homicide or the Cleveland kidnappings.
Together, we have the tools to prevent such heartaches.

Category: Crime, Mystery & Thrillers / Crime & Mysteries
Publisher: Pan Macmillan
Publication date: 23 June 2011
Number of pages: 400
An attack on the heart of power ...In sight of the White House ...At a place known as ...HELL'S CORNER Oliver Stone -- once the country's most skilled assassin -- stands in front of the White House, perhaps for the last time. The president has personally requested that Stone serve his country again on a high-risk, covert mission. Though he's fought for decades to leave his past career behind, Stone has no choice but to say yes. But Stone's mission changes drastically before it even begins. It's the night of a state dinner honouring the British prime minister. As he watches the prime minister's motorcade leave the White House, a bomb is detonated in an apparent terrorist attack against both leaders. It's in the chaotic aftermath that Stone takes on a new, more urgent assignment: find those responsible for the bombing. Stone's opponents are elusive, capable, and increasingly lethal. Worst of all, it seems that the park bombing may just have been the opening salvo in their plan. With nowhere else to turn, Stone enlists the help of the only people he knows he can trust: the Camel Club. Yet that may be a big mistake. In the shadowy worlds of politics and intelligence, there is no one you can really trust. And Hell's Corner truly lives up to its name. This may be Oliver Stone's and the Camel Club's last stand.

Identifying the difference between a lithograph and offset print – or how I spotted few forgeries on spanish stamps
|» Add comment
I was preparing some scans on unwanted (duplicate or mint) items for my stamp exchange website when I noticed few mint Spanish stamps that didn't seem to fit into picture. The subnotes on stamp catalog confirmed my hunch- I had stumpled upon forgeries of somewhat common and cheap stamps.
The original issues were printed using lithograph ("stone printing"), the forgeries were printed using offset. I know many collectors struggle with how to tell these apart – especially if having nothing to compare with. In reality the difference is quite easy to spot if you know what to look for.
First, here's a real stamp printed in litho. A lithograph print will ALWAYS have a solid outlines and fills. The print impression is flat with no notable indentations differentiating design from paper/non-printed areas (both front and back feel flat/smooth when you when you touch it with fingertips).
And here's the forgery printed in offset. Especially post 1920's stamps offset means that stamp is printed using photogravure. The characteristics for this are simple, as the impression ALWAYS shows lines of dots (or beads) when looked at proper (at least 10x) magnification. The dots will be visible on both the outlines and fills. The resulting impression is generally unclear and flat when compared to litho:
Instead of going to trade, the forgeries ended up into my collection.

NEP Launches Two New HD Mobile Production Trucks
Adding to the world's largest, most advanced fleet
PITTSBURGH, Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- NEP Broadcasting announced today the release of ND5 and Arizona, two new high-definition mobile production trucks. Designed and built at NEP's cutting-edge integration facility, ND5 and Arizona combine the finest broadcast technology with NEP's world-class mobile facilities design.
These two new additions bring NEP's HD fleet to 47 production trucks world-wide, the largest HD fleet in the industry. ND5 and Arizona are the first in a series of next generation HD trucks that will debut across NEP in 2012, including: ND6 in the Supershooters fleet; a new entertainment truck, Entourage, in the Sweetwater fleet; and an additional HD truck in NEP's UK fleet.
"NEP is committed to providing our clients with new and innovative solutions," said Debra Honkus, chairman of NEP's Board of Directors. "ND5 and Arizona are shining examples of NEPs renowned design and integration capabilities, creating two exceptional mobile production facilities."

It features a large, three-tier control room and a back-to-back layout in tape, and is equipped with a Grass Valley Kalypso switcher, Sony cameras, an Calrec Artemis Beam audio console with MADI and Hydra, and virtual monitor walls throughout. ND5 debuted this past Sunday, February 19th, with NBC's Hockey Day in America.
Arizona is the latest truck in NEP's Denali fleet, designed specifically for the entertainment industry. With a wide two-tier control room and a large audio room with seating for three, this single-truck unit is perfect for multi-camera reality programs and light entertainment. Arizona comes fully-equipped with a Grass Valley Kalypso switcher, Sony cameras, a Calrec Alpha audio console with MADI and Hydra, wiring for 20 tape machines and two EVS servers, and virtual monitor walls throughout. Arizona's first assignment will be in support of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Oscar telecast later this month.

They each utilize innovative design features pioneered by NEP, including a new light-weight power system in ND5 and full 16 channel embedded audio support in Arizona," says NEP Chief Technology Officer, George Hoover.

PDF Grant Programs
Are you interested in furthering Parkinson's science? View PDF's open grant programs.
Featured Research
What can we learn by studying genetics and Parkinson's? PDF-funded researchers Drs. Mata and Zabetian share their progress six years after launching the first large-scale survey of PD genetics in Latin America.
Center Grants
Through its Center Grants Program, the Parkinson's Disease Foundation (PDF) provides funding to select research groups that have long and distinguished track records of, and commitment to, understanding Parkinson's. Center Grants are based on the concept that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. These grants allow a strong group of talented scientists, working on different but related Parkinson's projects, the flexibility to collaborate with one another and tie their work together.
Currently, PDF awards Center Grants to the movement disorders centers at three prestigious institutions:
- Columbia University Medical Center (New York, NY)
- Rush University Medical Center (Chicago, IL)
- Weill Cornell Medical Center (New York, NY)
In funding centers, PDF looks for innovative, pioneering work that advances the understanding and treatment of Parkinson's disease. Our investment at these three centers covers the spectrum of Parkinson's research: basic, translational and clinical. Parkinson's Research Centers are funded based on continuing excellent performance, accredited by peer review from the Scientific Advisory Committee.
In the current fiscal year, the Center Grants program will account for about $2.36 million — more than 50 percent of our total research budget.

Apple iWatch to Focus on Health: Report
TheStreet) --
(AAPL) reportedly is hard at work refining new battery power and health technologies for a new smartwatch to be introduced later this year.
According to The New York Times, Apple's upcoming wearable device, in addition to the way it looks, might differ from competitive smartwatch designs from Samsung and Pebble with the addition of new power source technologies.
Apple is reportedly testing inductive, solar and motion charging for its future iWatch (or whatever they choose to call it).
Apple stock was gaining nearly 1% to $505.23 in early morning trading in New York.
During inductive charging, already available for a number of recent smartphone designs, a device is placed on or near a charger platform/base which provides an electromagnetic field to transfer energy to the device's internal battery. Nokia (NOK) offers inductive charging technology for a number of its recent smartphones.
Solar charging, which converts sunlight (and artificial light) into charging energy, has been used in some electronic watch designs for decades. A form of motion charging, the conversion of kinetic energy into reserve power, has been used in "self-winding" watches for years.
The Times reported these new forms of powering future smartwatches could be years away.
Apple is also said to be in the process of developing new, high-tech battery designs for its iPhones, iPads and MacBook Air laptops to work in combination with new-generation processors to increase overall battery efficiency.
A smartwatch could be part of Apple's plan to focus the next version of its mobile operating system on a user's health and well-being. According to 9to5Mac, iOS 8 will also focus on fitness tracking and mobile health.
Apple is said to be developing a new mobile app codenamed "iHealthbook." According to the report, the software will be able to monitor and store a user's vital signs and fitness statistics (miles walked, calories burned) as well as help manage and track weight loss.
Late last year, Apple reportedly met with Food and Drug Administration officials regarding health application regulations.
