HUNTSVILLE - Attorneys for a Texas prisoner sentenced to die for the slaying of a retired sheriff's deputy during a holdup a decade ago in South Texas are trying to halt his imminent punishment.
Convicted killer John Quintanilla faces lethal injection Tuesday evening in Huntsville. A federal appeals court has refused to halt the lethal injection and his lawyers late Monday took their appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Quintanilla contends his confession to the fatal shooting of 60-year-old Victor Billings in 2002 was coerced and improper. Billings was shot when he grabbed the rifle of one of two masked gunmen who walked into an amusement center in Victoria and announced a holdup.
Quintanilla's execution would be the ninth this year in Texas and first of two set for this week.

Since World War II, China has been in land and water disputes in the South and East China Seas with its neighbours; Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei.
The presence of immense hydrocarbon reserves has contributed to the escalation of the conflict.
While few military actions have taken place over the disputed regions, navy vessels colliding with fishermen, marine standoffs, military occupations, and scrambling fighter jets are becoming more common.
May 2014 has seen China rapidly escalate its presence, establishing oil rigs and mobilising military forces in multiple regions. This map shows the progression of these conflicts.

Facebook's COO Sheryl Sandberg to Harvard Grads: 'Can You Click On an Ad or Two'
By Julia Boorstin, CNBC Correspondent
NEW YORK ( CNBC) -- Harvard Business School's graduating class was eager to hear what Sheryl Sandberg would say about Facebook's (FB) IPO, in her Class Day Speech at Harvard Business School.
(She graduated from Harvard back in 1995, when CEO Mark Zuckerberg was 11.)
But as expected she steered clear of any controversial issues -- no talk about the Nasdaq or the stock price. She talked quite a lot about working with CEO Mark Zuckerberg and the premium both of them place on honesty and clear, simple communication.In her closing thoughts of the twenty minute speech she finally referenced Facebook's IPO with a quip: "I wish for your four things, first keep in touch via facebook, this is critical to your future success, and we're public now so can you click on an ad or two when you're there?" The line drew laughs and applause.

Energen Reports 4th Quarter And CY12 Operating And Financial Results
Energen Corporation (NYSE: EGN) announced today that its earnings in the three months ended December 31, 2012, totaled $62.8 million, or $0.87 per diluted share. Excluding non-cash mark-to-market gains on certain financial commodity contracts, Energen's adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) totaled $47.2 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, and compared with 4 th quarter 2011 adjusted net income of $71.0 million, or $0.98 per diluted share.
Non-cash, mark-to-market revenue gains in the 4th quarter 2012 were $24.7 million ($15.7 million after tax, or $0.22 per diluted share). Non-cash, mark-to-market revenue losses in the same period in 2011 totaled $90.8 million ($56.6 million after tax, or $0.78 per diluted share). [See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for more information and reconciliation.]
Relative to the same period a year ago, production in the 4th quarter of 2012 increased 14 percent and realized oil prices rose 3 percent. More than offsetting these gains were significantly lower natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) prices, increased depreciation expense (DD&A), and higher lease operating expense (LOE). Also in the 4 th quarter of 2012, Energen wrote off $5.3 million ($3.4 million after tax, or $0.05 per diluted share) of Delaware Basin leasehold set to expire in the first half of 2013; the bulk of this acreage was located west of the Pecos River in Reeves County, Texas. ( See pp 9-10 for additional 4 th quarter information).
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) totaled $209.3 million and compared with $208.5 million in the prior-year 4th quarter. The company's oil and gas exploration and production unit, Energen Resources Corporation, had adjusted EBITDA of $175.3 million in the 4th quarter of 2012 and $177.2 million in the same period a year ago. [ See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for more information and reconciliation.]"2012 was an exciting year for Energen. Record activity in the Permian Basin led to excellent performances from our 3 rd Bone Spring and Wolfberry wells as well as double-digit production growth," said James McManus, Energen's chairman and chief executive officer. "We expect our continued development of the 3 rd Bone Spring sand east of the Pecos River in the Delaware Basin and the vertical Wolfberry in the Midland Basin to drive strong, double-digit production growth in the Permian Basin in 2013. "And, at the same time, we are looking forward to exploring the potential offered by emerging horizontal plays in the Midland and Delaware basins." 2012 Financial Results Energen's 2012 net income totaled $253.6 million, or $3.51 per diluted share. Excluding non-cash items, adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) totaled $229.7 million, or $3.18 per diluted share, and compared with prior-year adjusted results of $283.0 million, or $3.91 per diluted share.

Attempts to identify the elders have fallen into two broad categories, one saying that they are men and the other that they are angels. Each category has three variations, the former one saying that the men are either representatives of Israel, representatives of the church, or representatives of both. The latter category sees the angels as representatives either of the OT priestly order or of the faithful of all ages, or as a special class or college of angels.5Whether to understand the elders as human or angelic beings turns on several factors:
Nowhere else in Scripture is the term [elder] used to describe celestial or angelic beings. This term is used of humans in positions of authority either in the synagogue or church.7
Presbuteroi (elders) is never used in Scripture to refer to angels, but always to men. It is used to speak of older men in general, and the rulers of both Israel and the church. There is no indisputable use of presbuteroi outside of Revelation to refer to angels. (Some believe that "elders" in Isaiah 24:23 refers to angels, but it could as well refer to humans.) Further, "elder" would be an inappropriate term to describe angels, who do not age.8The number of the elders, twenty four is seen by some as symbolizing the twelve tribes of Israel (written on the gates of the New Jerusalem, Rev. 21:12+) and the twelve apostles of the Lamb (written on the twelve foundations of the city, Rev. 21:14+). Thus, they suggest twelve of the elders represent OT saints and the other twelve NT saints.
That these twenty-four represent the heads of the twelve tribes of Israel and the twelve apostles is abundantly confirmed in Scripture. When we come to the description of the new Jerusalem, we find twelve messengers at the gates and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel, while the names of the twelve apostles are on the foundations of the city (Rev. 21:12-14+). Our Lord promised the disciples that they should sit upon twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel (Mat. 19:28; Luke 22:30). So it is that believers of all ages are seen here.9Yet the Lord said the apostles would judge the twelve tribes "in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory" (Mat. 19:28). This does not take place until His Second Coming when the Millennial Kingdom is established (Mat. 25:31; Rev. 20:4+). This scene in heaven precedes that time by at least seven years for the Lamb has not yet taken the scroll from the Father to loose the first of its seven seals (Rev. 5+). So it is not clear that OT saints are pictured here. The time at which this vision occurs within the sequence of events shown John implies that the elders are already in heaven prior to the events of The 70th Week of Daniel. We believe that passages such as Daniel 12:1-2+ imply that OT saints are not resurrected until after this time of Jacob's Trouble—prior to the Millennial Kingdom (Rev. 20:4+). To be sure, the souls of OT saints are in paradise (heaven at this time), but it seems unlikely that they would have received rewards (i.e., crowns) or rule on thrones prior to the resurrection attending the Millennial Kingdom.10 Others note the parallel with the twenty four divisions which David and Zadok made of the sons of Aaron for their priestly service (1Chr. 24:1-5). Rather than twelve OT saints and twelve NT saints, the number twenty four could merely represent the priestly role of the NT saints:
The figure 24 is probably taken from 1 Chronicles 24, where David divided the Tribe of Levi into 24 courses to represent the whole. Since the Church is a kingdom of priests, these 24 elders represent the Church as a whole. This actually provides [another] clue to the fact that the 24 elders represent the Church and not angels.11The events of the Tribulation period which follows argue against their identification with Israel:
Some believe the elders represent Israel. But while individual Jews have been and will continue to be redeemed throughout history, at the time of this vision the nation as a whole had not yet been redeemed. Their national judgment and salvation (Rom. 11:26) comes during the Tribulation (chaps. 6-19), largely as a result of the evangelistic efforts of the 144,000 (introduced in chap. 7). When the twenty-four elders are first introduced, those events are yet to take place.12Various lines of evidence suggest they represent the redeemed of the present church age.13
The biblical description seems to point to believers of this present church age. They are already in heaven (Rev. 4+-5+) before the opening of the seal judgments (Rev. 6+). They are sitting on thrones before God (Rev. 4:4+). Angels never sit in the presence of God. However, Christ promised church-age believers that they would sit with Him on His throne (Rev. 3:21+). God positionally has made all believers today sit together in the heavenly places in Christ (Eph. 2:6). The elders are clothed in white robes (Rev. 4:4+). Church-age believers are promised such pure clothing (Rev. 3:5+, 18+; 19:7-8+). The elders have crowns of gold on their heads (Rev. 4:4+). . . . Believers in the churches are promised such crowns (Rev. 2:10+; 3:11+). In the Epistles, believers are also promised crowns for spiritual accomplishments (1Cor. 9:25; 1Th. 2:19; 2Ti. 4:8; Jas. 1:12; 1Pe. 5:4). Holy angels do not wear crowns, but believers can and will wear them. . . . The elders are set in contrast to angels (Rev. 5:11+). The term presbuteros (elder) is never used of angels in the Bible. The word denotes maturity and growth. Holy angels could not be designated with this term because they were all created at the same time. . . . The more plausible explanation of the twenty-four elders is that they represent the redeemed of this present church age.14
Among the well-known commentators who regard these elders as representative of the Church are Alford, Barnes, Benson, Binney, Carpenter, Clarke, Clemance, Book, Crafer, Crosby, Dusterdieck, Fausset, Girdlestone, Godet, Gray, Henry, [Hengstenberg], Holden, Kiyper, Milligan, Plummer, Roberson, Scott, Sheppard, Simcox, Slight, Smith, Swete, Weidner.15If these represent saints of the church age,16 then we have another piece of evidence in favor of a pretribulational rapture: "Here then is yet another proof that the Church shall not pass through the Tribulation, for we find these singers in Heaven before the beginning of the judgments."17
As John beholds certain subjects of redemption, robed, and crowned, and enthroned, as priests and kings in heaven, we here have (let it be noted) positive demonstration, that, at the time to which this vision relates, a resurrection and a translation have already taken place. . . .They occupy these thrones, while yet the closed book, which brings forth the seals and trumpets, lies untouched in the hand of Him that sits upon the throne. They see it there, and they vote the Lamb worthy to open it. They behold Him taking it up, and fall down and worship as He holds it. They are in their places when heaven receives the accession of the multitude which come "out of the great tribulation" (Rev. 7:11-14+). They have their own distinct positions when the still later company of the hundred and forty-four thousand gather round the Lamb on Mount Sion. And they are spectators of the judgment of great Babylon, and sing Alleluia in glory as they see her fall (Rev. 19:4+).18Elders will also rule with Christ from Jerusalem in the Millennial Kingdom (Isa. 24:23).clothed in white robes
1 "Nowhere in Scripture do angels sit on thrones, nor are they pictured ruling or reigning. Their role is to serve as 'ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation' (Heb. 1:14; cf. Mat. 18:10)."—John MacArthur, Revelation 1-11 : The MacArthur New Testament Commentary (Chicago, IL: Moody Press, 1999), Rev. 4:4.
2 Daniel 11:3+ probably denotes the first half of the 7-year period. The remaining 3.5 years are the time of the beast's dominion.

5 Robert L. Thomas, Revelation 1-7 (Chicago, IL: Moody Press, 1992), 344.
6 In support of identifying the elders with angels, [Thomas, Revelation 1-7, 345] notes the Septuagint rendering of 'elders' in Isa. 24:23 refers to a heavenly assembly. But the context of the passage is the Messianic Kingdom in which resurrected humans are known to function in leadership roles.

8 MacArthur, Revelation 1-11 : The MacArthur New Testament Commentary, Rev. 4:5.
9 Donald Grey Barnhouse, Revelation (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan Publishing House, 1971), 91.
10 "The entire scriptural doctrine concerning the state of the dead, forbids the idea that disembodied souls are already crowned and enthroned, although at rest in the bosom of God. . . . The coronation time, is the resurrection time; and no one can be crowned until he is either resurrected if dead, or translated if living."—J. A. Seiss, The Apocalypse: Lectures on the Book of Revelation (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan Publishing House, 1966), 104. The OT saints are not in Christ in the sense of having been baptized into His body (1Cor. 12:13) and are not part of the Church which was formed on the Day of Pentecost. "Even though Israel is redeemed by the blood of Christ, Israel never experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit which placed them 'in Christ,' so this phrase can only describe those saints of the present age who are thus related to Christ."—J. Dwight Pentecost, Things to Come: A Study in Biblical Eschatology (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan Publishing House, 1958), 407. Therefore the OT saints are not raised at the Rapture of the church when the dead in Christ arise (1Th. 4:16), but at a later time—prior to the Millennial Kingdom in which Israel will play a key role (Mat. 19:28). "Resurrection is viewed as a terminating event and Israel's resurrection could not come until her program were terminated."—Pentecost, Things to Come: A Study in Biblical Eschatology, 410.
11 Fruchtenbaum, The Footsteps of Messiah, 167.

13 For the view that they are heavenly beings, see [E. W. Bullinger, Commentary On Revelation (Grand Rapids, MI: Kregel Publications, 1984, 1935), 217-220] and [Thomas, Revelation 1-7, 344-348]. For an extended discussion of the identity of the elders, see [Pentecost, Things to Come: A Study in Biblical Eschatology, 207-208, 253-258].

15 Alva J. McClain, The Greatness Of The Kingdom (Winona Lake, IN: BMH Books, 1959), 469.
16 "Identification of the twenty-four elders should not be dogmatically held, but such evidence as there is seems to point to the conclusion that they may represent the church as the Body of Christ."—John F. Walvoord, The Revelation of Jesus Christ (Chicago, IL: Moody Press, 1966), 107.
17 Barnhouse, Revelation, 91.
18 Seiss, The Apocalypse: Lectures on the Book of Revelation, 104.
19 Fruchtenbaum sees their wearing crowns as an indication that the events of these two chapters follow the bema seat judgment of believers' works. "The fact that these 24 elders are wearing these stephanos crowns also shows that the events described in chapters four and five occur after the Judgment Seat of Messiah but before the Marriage of the Lamb."—Fruchtenbaum, The Footsteps of Messiah, 167.
20 Barnhouse, Revelation, 92.

PITTSFORD, N.Y. - After a preseason opening win the Bills back on the practice field Monday. A short week with the Vikings coming to Ralph Wilson Stadium on Friday.
The Bills saw contributions from all sides of the ball against the Colts, but the play of their two rookie quarterbacks may have stood out. EJ Manuel got the start and led a touchdown drive in the two minute drill. Jeff Tuel also tossing two scores. Veteran QB Kevin Kolb working his way back, saw some team reps Monday. But Manuel has continued to grow, now with his first NFL game action under his belt.
"This is big time, this is the elite of the elite," Manuel said. "Playing against and playing with guys you grew up watching on TV on the opposing team and on my team. It's a great feeling and once the first snap was out of the way, it was football."
"We were looking for certain things in it, the intangibles," head coach Doug Marrone said. "We know that he has the ability to do it, so we were looking for the reaction. And again, you saw him settle into the game and then really start to do some really good things."

Of special interest to us, however, is The Maury House, which was built in 1846 at 1105 East Clay Street and moved across the street to 1016 East Clay Street in 1996. Matthew Fontaine Maury, the namesake of Maury Place at Monument and whose statue is across the street, was a noted sailor and scientist best known for having first charted all the oceans of the earth. He was also instrumental in developing ironclad ships. At one point in his career, he rented quarters at 1105 East Clay Street in the Italianate home of a cousin, Dr. Socrates Maupin, who was a professor at the Medical College of Virginia. Maury conducted experiments in an upstairs bathtub that led to his development of the torpedo. Virginia Commonwealth University dismantled the building and reconstructed it across the street brick by brick in the 1990's. It now is part of one of the few complete blocks of downtown 19th century architecture. The building now serves as the alumni center for VCU's Medical College of Virginia.

Supervisory Board
Wiet de Bruijn (51), residing in Huizen (The Netherlands), is an entrepreneurial investor with, amongst others, active interests in wildlife conservation and agriculture. Wiet developed a love for nature through experiencing its beauty and splendour first hand while fishing and hunting as a young man with his father.
At the age of 21, Wiet soon realised that he had an acute understanding of business and started to initiate and develop various businesses. In the last 15 years Wiet has acted as an active shareholder and/or board member in a number of for-profit companies and for a number of years he invests time and money in non-profit initiatives as well.
In 2010 Wiet got involved in the Marakele Contractual National Park conservation initiative in South-Africa. This Park, which covers an area of more than 65.000 hectares, is located in the breath-taking Waterberg-area, situated in the northern part of the Limpopo province. This project has many similarities to Rewilding Europe, considering the challenges both initiatives face. The Marakele Park management seeks long-term sustainable financial income to reinvest in the park by developing tourism and breeding indigenous animals.
Simultaneously Wiet also plays a key role in a large agricultural farm in Ukraine. Through this project he is able to combine business and teaching people the philosophy with regards to mutual respect between man and nature.
All this led him to the Rewilding Europe initiative, where he will support Rewilding Europe with his experience and network in the Dutch business community to develop the initiative.
As the chairman of the Supervisory Board, Wiet expects to be a powerful asset to the Rewilding Europe project, not only as an entrepreneur/businessman, but also with his love for conservation.

He was one of the lead authors of the Scenarios Report for the Biodiversity Outlook 3 and is the Chair of the Biodiversity Observation Network of the Group on Earth Observations. Prof. Pereira received his PhD in Biological Sciences from Stanford University in 2002. From 2003 to 2005, he coordinated the Portugal Millennium Ecosystem Assessment.
From 2006 to 2009 he was the Director of Peneda-Gerês National Park in Northern Portugal. From 2009 to 2014 he was a Research Group Leader at the Center for Environmental Biology of the University of Lisbon. He has published over fifty scientific papers and reports on biodiversity issues. His research interests revolve around global biodiversity change, including monitoring schemes for biodiversity, spatially explicit and species-area models for biodiversity scenarios, and empirical studies of the consequences of rewilding abandoned farmland for biodiversity and ecosystem services.
Henrique has a special interest in Rewilding Europe because it provides a great opportunity to link his scientific work with support of practical rewilding work in the different regions in Europe. In the Supervisory Board, his scientific and rewilding expertise will be very helpful in further strengthening the strategic directions and approaches of our initiative, as well as providing support from a scientific angle.
Odile Rodríguez de la Fuente is the vice-president, founder and general director of Fundación Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente in Spain which was founded in 2004. She went to high school in Spain, England and Switzerland, a worldwide association of schools called RoundSquare.
Odile holds a BS in Biological Sciences (1994) and a BA in Cinema Production (1995) from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. She started her career in 1996 at National Geographic Television in Washington DC as an intern, associate producer and producer. Among others, she worked on a film about rain forests in Mexico and a major, worldwide communication campaign on conservation, in collaboration with IUCN.
In 2004, she was the Director of Scientific Film Awards of Ronda, the first initiative of its kind in Spain. In 2005 she worked as a producer at RTVE, doing a production of a two-hour documentary of the life and work of her father Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente. In 2006, she became a member of the board of WWF Spain.
Currently, Odile's main work is for the Fundación Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente, an important NGO in Spain, named after her father who was a very famous Spanish nature filmmaker. Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente produced some very famous films and books. Unfortunately he died in a plane crash in Alaska when Odile was only 7 years young. Odile has followed the footsteps of her father and dedicates her life to protect and to communicate about nature and its wonders.
About her father, Odile says: "I always wanted to follow on my father´s footsteps even before he left us but the impact of his sudden death probably influenced me even more to dedicate my life to the defense and communication of nature and its wonders. My father supposed a huge influence in Spanish conscience about conservation. He was responsible for positioning Spain as one of the pioneering countries in Europe to first have laws protecting predatory birds and wolves. If we still have wolves in Spain it is because of my father´s work both on a political level but mainly as the most popular communicator in Spain during the 60´s and 70´s. His television series "El Hombre y la Tierra" was first on ranking for the eight years they were aired in Spain, surpassing any other international documentaries (like BBC or National Geographic) in both technological and narrative style. They were seen by millions of people worldwide including countries like Russia and Japan and showed Spanish fauna and flora to Europe and the world.
On the editorial end his best known work was the world wide encyclopedia "Fauna". It was translated into 16 languages and sold more than 40 million volumes worldwide.''
As a conservationist, Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente was the co-founder and vice-president of WWF Spain and responsible for the preservation of many of the most important wild spots in Spain that are now National and Natural parks. He is still a major reference in Spain and many Spanish speaking countries and his style and passion still motivate and are an inspiration to thousands.
For Rewilding Europe, Odile Rodríguez de la Fuente will have a particular role in communication and networking, representing the initiative towards certain external audiences, especially in the Mediterranean parts of Europe. She will also help facilitating to reach certain target groups, such as major land owners/holders in the rewilding areas, national top media, and early adopters within the key government structures in Spain and Portugal.

East Timor
Tjan has told us that the PGET will invite members of the Security Council, the Committee of Twenty-Four, Winspeare and most probably Ambassadors in Jakarta from 'ASEAN plus' countries (at least) to observe the planned meeting in Dili (stage one of the procedure outlined in JA54151).
- The same group would also be invited to observe the debate in the Parliament in Jakarta and the Indonesian mission to East Timor to verify the wishes of the people (stages two and four of the procedure). These invitations would not be issued until the appropriate time.
- If the invitations were not accepted Tjan said, Indonesia would be able to say to its critics that an opportunity had been given to the international community to observe the act of self-determination.
- Asked whether international observation of the selection of district representatives to the Dili meeting would be sought, Tjan said that process was almost complete. There had been some slippage in the proposed timetable but it was still intended to complete the process by 17 August.
- Tjan gave two reasons for the apparent haste. First, there was a desperate need for money in East Timor. Until East Timor became properly a part of Indonesia it was very difficult to provide funds through the Indonesian budget for expenditure there. Secondly, when East Timor was integrated Indonesia could answer any international criticism of what happened in East Timor by claiming it was an internal matter.
- Asked about Indonesia's reaction if some countries (and the United Nations) did not accept the integration, Tjan said that these countries recognised Indonesia and East Timor would be part of Indonesia. In time this question would not be a problem.

Jackson Davis Collection of African American Educational Photographs
Classroom Resources
Web Quest
Virginia Education and the World:
Industrial Expositions and African American Education
The Task
Through these activities, you will learn about the "Industrial Training"method of education, who it was for, and what types of skills were learned through this form of education. You will also discover, through reading newspaper articles, how the products of this type of education were presented to the pubilc, and the response they received.
- You will first need to read a short paragraph that describes the industrial training method.
- You will need to read articles that describe the conditions and activities surrounding the Industrial Expositions being held in many cities all over the country.
The Process
Step 1
Before begining your exploration into the world of Industrial training Expostioions, it is important that you read a brief paragraph which explains what the Industrial training method is, who it involves and when this training took place.
African-American schools often held industrial exhibits to which they invited white county residents and state and private-foundation officials. These events allowed school teachers and administrators to display student-made products and farming methods, in the hope of increasing school funding. State and foundation representatives often awarded prizes for the best products as a way to encourage African-American children to pursue industrial training.
Step 2
After reading the brief description about the Industrial training Method, choose two of the articles provided, click on the picture of the article to read them, and then answer the following questions.
Article 3: "INVITES WHITE PEOPLE TO ATTEND EXPOSITION"
Article 4: "COLORED EVANGELIST PRAISES EXPOSTION"
Extension Activities
- Make a poster advertising an Industrial exposition.
- Orginize your own exposition where you can present to classmates, teachers, and parents your skills and talents.

You had to wonder why a Republican led senate let Cuomo bully them into rushing through legislation in the opening days of the session that was so poorly drafted that it already has to be amended. Now we know of the bullying tatics used. Pay attention, this is a guy who may want to be the next President.
Three days ago, the New York Times described the 'behind-the-scenes' pressure Democratic Governor Cuomo put upon the State Senate's Republicans to join his gun control coalition, including Gigi Bowman's upcoming opponent Marcellino.
'First, there were threats, delivered in phone calls or through intermediaries,' the Times reports. Describing what would happen to any Republican Senator who didn't back the gun control measure, the publication continues, 'He would seek to dissolve their fledgling coalition by pressuring his fellow Democrats to reunite; pummel recalcitrant Republican senators for months with a seven-figure advertising blitz backed by national groups like the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence; and campaign on Long Island, where 9 of the 30 Republican senators live.'

Home > Health & Wellness > Health Library > Blackouts Caused by Alcohol or Drugs
A blackout means not being able to remember what happened when you
were drinking or using drugs. Blackouts are not the same as passing out.
Passing out occurs when you lose consciousness. You don't pass out when you
have a drug or alcohol blackout. In a blackout, you lose short-term memories. A
blackout is a type of
During a blackout, you may function normally. People around you may
not notice anything different about your behavior. You might do the things you
normally do, such as eat dinner, wash dishes, or watch television. But later
you have no memory of doing them.
Many people who have blackouts aren't worried about them. They might
remember feeling good but be unable to remember what they did. This is called
euphoric recall. Other people find blackouts very disturbing and seek treatment
because of them.
You may pass out during a blackout. This can be caused by the effects
of the alcohol or drugs, a head injury from a fall when you were drunk or high,
or a
seizure. You probably will not remember hurting
yourself or having a seizure.
If you think you have blackouts, don't drive or operate any kind of
machinery. Talk to your doctor about your blackouts. You might need to be
tested for other problems that can cause loss of consciousness.

For Christie, the bridge scandal's fallout continues. Photo: (Jeff Zelevansky/Getty Images)
Steve Kornacki, anchor of MSNBC's weekend show Up and a longtime observer of New Jersey politics, gave us an extensive analysis on the Political Wire podcast of the bridge scandal that has vexed Gov. Chris Christie (R) and has put a cloud over his political future.
Here are five takeaways:
1. The endorsement retribution theory in the Christie bridge scandal doesn't make sense: New Jersey Democrats repeatedly accused the Christie administration of closing the lanes as payback against Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich (D) for his decision not to endorse the GOP governor's re-election. The media repeatedly echoed that theory as it speculated why a Christie staffer said it was "time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee." But the theory doesn't hold up. Said Kornacki: "This is a town of about 35,000 people in a state where there are 565 municipalities, so it's not like you're really needing this [endorsement]."
The timeline of events further casts doubt. Assuming that the available information on the timing is correct, three months passed between when Christie sought the endorsement and when the lanes were ordered to be shut. "There's no direct causation there. Even if you had that, it's so disproportionate... the risk involved in a scheme like this for what you're getting."
2. For another theory behind Bridgegate, follow the redevelopment money: Political corruption in New Jersey often involves development projects. Land for development is scarce in New Jersey, especially up north, making it highly valuable and a big target for influence peddling. "There's just so much money at stake for so many people," Kornacki said. It just so happens that right in the vicinity of the closed lanes is a $1 billion redevelopment project, whose business prospects and value would fall if lane closures made the site difficult to access. A business day after the lane closures ended in September, financing that had been delayed for the second phase of the project was finalized. It could be a coincidence or a red herring, Kornacki said. "But just given what I know about New Jersey politics ... it makes me want to look a lot closer."
3. Ultimately, legislature-issued subpoenas may yield a better sense of motive: For now, the true motivation behind the lane closures remains cloaked in mystery. The initial batch of released emails came from Port Authority officials, not the governor's office. As a result, the only emails from Christie staffers that the public has seen are those sent to the Port Authority officials. Now lawmakers in the Democratic-led legislature who have formed investigative committees appear to be issuing subpoenas for other Christie staffers' emails. One of the subpoenaed officials could be Bridget Anne Kelly, the recently fired Christie aide who asked the Port Authority to instigate Fort Lee's traffic problems. "There's a good potential, then, that you'll find out the rest of that conversation or more about that conversation... who knows what will turn up?"
4. But the Assembly and Senate each has its own investigation. That could get messy: The state Assembly has helped keep the bridge scandal alive so far, and it stands to reason that it will aggressively pursue its investigation. But some Democrats worry that the Senate won't do as thorough a job in its investigation, Kornacki said. New Jersey Senate President Stephen Sweeney is a Democrat who is close to Christie, and the presence of two separate investigations could create duplicative paperwork that the Christie administration could cite in asking a court to quash the subpoenas.
5. Don't totally rule out Christie's presidential prospects just yet: Conventional wisdom long had Christie as an early frontrunner for the Republican nomination in 2016. Many political observers warn that Christie's pragmatic streak could rankle conservative primary voters, and the bridge scandal may put any frontrunner status he had on hold or even remove it. But Christie still has a rare gift that so many politicians seek: A hard-hitting, off-the-cuff personality that can win over skeptics. Christie has demonstrated this ability before when he's spoken to rooms of conservatives who might not fully agree with him on policy matters, Kornacki said: "They sit there, and they just sort of start nodding their head, they sort of start to say, 'I like this guy.'" If Christie were to pull that off in 2016, he'd get a much-needed boosts in conservative-heavy primary and caucus states like Iowa and South Carolina.

GRAND CHAMPION - Bringing it Home from the 1800's
Many of us travel or see pictures of sights from around the world and wish to bring a little of it back. While it might not be feasible for some, this is precisely what Bob Brothen did. Nestled on a hillside on his hobby farm in Stillwater,
Minnesota is a picturesque, old-world styled barn.
After traveling abroad, Bob was inspired. "On a visit to my grandfather's home in Norway I saw buildings constructed by my great grandfather in the 1880's. The ability to saw lumber to build in that style inspired us to plan a building that would emulate his work." With the use of his Wood-Mizer LT10, and some help from his brother and son, Bob created his 924 square foot barn over the course of one fall and two summers. The barn is now being put to good use housing seasonal items, equipment, tractors, and mowers used around the Northern Minnesota farm.
Bob was sure to stay true to his inspired design. "We used a type of timber frame construction, board and batten siding, extended floor joists, dormers, and wide board flooring similar to what my great grandfather might have done. The trim and color is old Norway inspired."
Everyone who encounters the barn is moved - even Bob himself. "I felt that we produced something that will last not only because of the solid wood construction but because its unique character will be worth preserving. In a world where so much is manufactured and mass produced, a unique building using unique materials always seems to generate interest."For this project, Bob, his son, and his brother, were able to cut 6,000 feet of boards and timbers in a little over 60 hours, spread over five weekends. Bob's inspiration came to fruition with the help of his Wood-Mizer. "When we purchased the LT10 sawmill, we planned to saw only specialty lumber for small projects. We soon learned that our Wood-Mizer has the capability to go well beyond our initial expectations."

FIRST PLACE - The Family "Honey Hut"
If you find yourself traveling down a lush, green, wooded path in Woodland, Washington, you might stumble across Brian Trembley's Honey Hut. For more than two years, and with the help of his family and Wood-Mizer LT70, a simple project grew and grew.
"Instead of a 10'x10' shed on pier blocks, I ended up with a two story, 12'x18' monster with concrete footing." Brian and his family enjoy entertaining guests over dinner, and sometimes a card game or two.
One important feature of The Honey Hut is that it utilizes local species of wood, and everything had to be hand-carried through the woods to the
building site. All the siding came from one old growth Douglas fir log, and is almost knot free.
His family is proud of the work Brian has done. His daughter, Ember, shares her thoughts as well. "[My dad] has wonderful ideas for projects. I can't believe that The Honey Hut is actually finished! For my dad to complete a project of this magnitude is amazing."

HONORABLE MENTION - A Lakeside Retreat
When Dallas and Patty Eggelston decided to put a recreational cabin on their lakeshore, they turned to Gilbert Simmons who had started his own recreational cabin business for extra income. Seven weeks later he had constructed a 360 square foot cabin using his LT40 Hydraulic mill. "The hydraulic log handling feature of my LT40HD is second to none. It saves wear and tear on your body." The cabin features a comfortable living area, a loft, and a front porch. Gilbert also used an old Wood-Mizer 249 bandsaw to create the three curved braces at the entrance of this customized
cabin. "I really enjoyed building the cabin for Dallas and Patty, who were a joy to work for. They gave me an opportunity to express myself through some woodworking skills and my Wood-Mizer; I am very grateful." Gilbert looks forward to the future and new projects on the horizon.

Silda Wall Spitzer Is Having the Best Divorce Ever
And it is vicariously gratifying.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
Skip to content, or skip to search.
And it is vicariously gratifying.
Pity the New York Post.
Not a major surprise.
"I am so tired of the personal attacks and I've answered all those questions."
The latest is about his wife.
And is it time to bring out Silda?
Hmmm. That nickname's not working, is it?
Like the Yankees aren't getting enough these days.
The couple appear together for their first public event.
A judge has ordered prosecutors to release sealed documents about wiretaps in the Eliot Spitzer scandal to the New York 'Times.'
New York's most famous prostitute opens up!
So someone said! Also, David Wright was attacked by cheesy cougars, and Tyra paid for Isis's sex change. In the gossip roundup.
On his 49th birthday, we get reports that Spitzer's legal future looks grim, but his financial plan is a good one! Oh, yeah, and he doesn't think the whole hooker thing was that big of a deal.
What her look at last night's Children for Children benefit said about how she's feeling these days.
Hookers, hypocrisy, and black socks reappear on television in tomorrow night's season finale! Love that Dick Wolf.
We sat down with Paterson this weekend to ask him what's on everybody's mind: What's going on with Silda Wall Spitzer? Oh, and we asked about some political things, too.
It's time for the healing over Eliot Spitzer's betrayal to begin. Carlos Santana shepherds the people of New York toward acceptance.
That's what "Page Six" is reporting, and we're surprised at how, well, unsurprised we are.

Mackerel cause the sea to boil at Budleigh beach
Scores of people lined the beach at Budleigh and watched as the sea boiled with mackerel, attracted by whitebait near the shoreline. People scooped up bucket-loads of fish with some giving them away to passers-by as there were too many to take home. A dolphin was also spotted hunting the fish.

Looking to create an RPM package by compiling Apache with custom modules. I'm NOT installing the package on my build server, I'm staging it under
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2
make install DESTDIR=/opt/BUILD/httpd
That alone allows me to create an RPM by using
fpm. The problem I'm having is, how would I add custom modules that needs to be compiled with
/opt/BUILD/httpd/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs -c -i -a mod_custom_header.c
When I run the command above, it throws an error, probably due to the fact that I've compiled Apache against the
/usr/local/apache2 prefix.
cannot open /usr/local/apache2/build/config_vars.mk: No such file or directory at

I know the reasons for it, and he did attempt to give all the proceeds from his concert there to a charity which would remediate the problem......
but I lost a lot of feeling for his music when he did not honor the artistic boycott of israel and instead did perform concert there most recently.
A monk seemingly but a monk who in that faith of buddhism is allowed to retain judism belief foundations.
Those beliefs I do not abscribe. P
personally.... great artist but I personally have lost a lot of feeling for his music.
Paul McCartney performed there as well though slightly before the boycott became more organized, but many do not presently. I tend to respect their products of artistic endeavor more as result personally.
Like artists perfoming in south africa during the bad old days I would pause at accepting their contributions however valid to the artistic community of things.
Nothing wrong with that but much of his music, though not this song... such as "I have tried in my way to be free"....seem theistically framed.

The Wrap Revolution
High-Quality Vehicle Graphics
Part 3 of 4
By Gretchen A. Peck
Brothers Scott and Ryan Stara came by their Lincoln, NE-based vehicle graphics business, Revolution Wraps, in a roundabout way. Less than a decade ago, the two headed up a truck bed-liner company to market and grow. They decided to dress up their trucks with self-promotion to advertise the business.
"We were looking for a wrap, and we went to some of the local sign shops and some of the businesses in the nearby cities," Scott Stara recalls. "And what we found was that there was really no quality. The work that we saw had seams everywhere. The designs weren�t very good. The printing wasn�t even very good at the time. And because we were complete outsiders, we didn�t know any better. We thought that maybe that was the best that we could expect."
"But then we started to see some of the work coming from a few suppliers on the West Coast, and they were doing some really beautiful work. So, we knew it was possible to get a good, high-quality product. We then set out with a designer friend of ours, and said, �Can you do this? If you can design it, we can have someone print it.� And that�s what we did. That was four years ago," he notes.
The Stara brothers broke into the wrap scene by showcasing custom-wrapped vehicles at a few auto shows, where they garnered a lot of interest.
"People started asking, �Where did you get that done?� And that�s when we started to think that maybe we should get into this line of work," Scott Stara confides. "But what really catapulted us into the business was when someone saw one of our trucks and asked us to create wraps for 16 semi trailers. And we didn�t even have a printer at the time!"
Ryan Stara says that when they went to look for some print equipment of their own, they had fairly simple criteria. The printer had to be reliable. It had to be fairly easy to use. And it had to be affordable, since the brothers weren�t really sure that this new business would take off.
"That first year, we printed way more material than we ever imagined we would," Ryan Stara recalls. Recently, the company purchased a 64-inch Mutoh America, Inc. ValueJet.
Giving 100 PercentThe brothers agree that what really differentiates Revolution Wraps from other vehicle graphic suppliers is the attention to detail and unflappable commitment to quality.
"We print at high settings; our ink levels are pretty high, because we really want our colors to be great and vivid," Scott Stara confides. "We are very aware of what constitutes a beautiful product, and when people see our company vehicles, they�re floored.
"There are some competitors out there who have the 50/50 mentality. They want their wraps to look good from 50 feet away, passing by at 50 miles per hour. But we�re really after show quality. It has to look good if you�re standing right in front of it," he attests.
Other than the company�s Web site, Revolution Wraps relies on word-of-mouth. Ryan Stara notes that there are seven company vehicles wrapped, which also serve as moving ads.
While many of the company�s customers are locally based, the company does sell nationwide and will even travel to a site if the customer is willing to cover the cost.
Once a customer contacts the Stara brothers for a wrap job, they get white-glove service from beginning to end. "We do a nice job as far as proofing. We do an actual test print on the media it will be printed on, so the customers actually see a miniaturized version of the wrap itself, printed on the media, with the laminate applied," Scott Stara notes. "They see exactly what they�re going to get."
The brothers have experimented with many of the media and laminates available on the market, and frequently use Oracal USA�s media. "The white points are nice; the gloss is really nice. And we like the aggressiveness of it, which is more than other products out there, but we want that. We want it to last, and yes, you have to be a really good installer to put a wrap on properly, the first time. And we are," asserts Scott Stara.
"We don�t make mistakes during the install," Ryan Stara concurs. "Out of all the vehicles we�ve done, I think we�ve only had to throw away one whole side of a wrap."
Quality Matters"We had a gentleman from Kansas City, MO recently contact us about wrap pricing. We were a little more expensive; plus, we were three hours away from him. So he ended up getting it done by someone who was in closer proximity," explains Scott Stara.
"But two months ago I received a call from him, and he said, �You guys talked about quality so much. I really wish that I�d listened to you, because what I got was nothing like what I was promised.� We do try to be effective in terms of cost, but what�s top priority for us is quality. And our customers appreciate it," he adds.
Quality has a history of making customers keep coming back for more and it is something the Stara brothers are certainly capable of. "We want to specialize in this business. We want to be known nationwide for beautiful, high-end quality work, and I think that�s why we keep getting repeat customers�and new ones from those who have recommended us," concludes Scott Stara.

A member of Intel's new Merced family of processors, Itanium is a 64-bit RISC microprocessor. Based on the EPIC (Explicitly Parallel Instruction Computing) design philosophy, which states that the compiler should decide which instructions be executed together, Itanium has the highest FPU power available.
In 64-bit mode, Itanium is able to calculate two bundles of a maximum of three instructions at a time. In 32-bit mode, it is much slower. Decoders must first translate 32-bit instruction sets into 64-bit instruction sets, which results in extra-clock cycle use.
Itanium's primary use is driving large applications that require more than 4 GB of memory, such as databases, ERP, and future Internet applications.
