This article discusses the basic principles behind the Surface-Related Multiple Elimination (SRME) technique and demonstrates its effect on newly acquired data in August 2008 for Eni and partners in the PL122/159C licenses in the Norwegian Sea. The use of 3D SRME to attenuate multiples in a relatively shallow water-bottom environment is examined. In addition, a 2D SRME is compared with the newer 3D General Surface Multiple Prediction (GSMP) method.

Global economic development has been accompanied by the annual generation of billions of tons of solid wastes. Their disposal consumes land and currently results in nearly 4% of the global greenhouse gas emissions. This webinar discusses the principal means for dealing with what has become a major environmental issue.
In the hierarchy of waste management, recycling is the first priority, but even under the best circumstances, there remains a large fraction of solids that must be landfilled or processed in waste-to-energy (WTE) plants. The guiding principle for 'sustainable waste management' is that it should be based on science and best available technologies, and not on an easy-way-out that seems inexpensive now, but could be very costly in the near future.
This is the first in a 3-part series on 'Waste-to-Energy', co-partnered with the AIChE Sustainable Engineering Forum. Please note that each webinar in the series requires separate registration, and has been designed to function as both a standalone presentation and a component in the series. The other webinars in the series are An Integrated Waste Management System for a Sustainable Society, Burgeoning Prospects for Waste-to-Energy in the United States.
Dr. Nickolas J. Themelis
Dr. Nickolas J. Themelis obtained his B. Eng. and Ph.D. in chemical engineering from McGill University. In the first part of his career, he was Associate Director of the Noranda Research Center in Montreal where he invented the Noranda continuous smelting and converting process that has been applied in several countries and has reduced sulphur emissions to the atmosphere by millions of tons.
In 1972-1980, Dr. Themelis directed the R&D of a major U.S. corporation (Kennecott). He then joined Columbia in 1980, was chairman of the Henry Krumb School of Mines, and founder of...

Preservationists end suit to save Prentice Hospital
BY DAVID ROEDER Business email@example.com February 14, 2013 12:32PM
The old Prentice Women's Hospital building, 333 E Superior. | John H. White~Sun-Times.
Updated: March 17, 2013 6:18PM
Preservationists conceded defeat Thursday and withdrew their lawsuit challenging the city's refusal to grant landmark protection to the former Prentice Women's Hospital in Streeterville, a building slated to be torn down.
The National Trust for Historic Preservation said it was withdrawing its suit over Prentice that it had filed in Cook County Circuit Court. The suit accused city officials of violating the landmarks ordinance with the procedure used to deny protection for the building, a design of famous Chicago architect Bertrand Goldberg.
"We continue to believe there were significant flaws with the process that granted and then removed landmark protection for Prentice," said a statement from the trust-led Save Prentice Coalition. "However, we feel that the landmarks process has run its course."
The owner of the building, Northwestern University, wants to raze it to make room for medical research labs. Mayor Rahm Emanuel has enthusiastically embraced the project for its economic promise and its potential for making Chicago a center for medical advances.
Addressing complaints over how the landmarking decision was handled, the Commission on Chicago landmarks a week ago held a second hearing on Prentice, took more than three hours of testimony and voted again to let Northwestern tear it down.
It also voted that way last November, but preservationists argued the decision was illegally rushed. It came at the same meeting at which the commission also endorsed a city study that said the building merited consideration as a landmark.
Following the announcement of the lawsuit withdrawal, Eugene Sunshine, senior vice president of business and finance at Northwestern, said he was pleased by the preservationists' decision. He said the school will move ahead with the city and downtown Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd) in building the biomedical research complex, which has a promised $400 million economic impact.
The Prentice property at 333 E. Superior is "the linchpin" for the project, Sunshine said. The school has said it will hold an architectural design competition and wants to begin construction in 2015.
Bonnie McDonald, president of the group Landmarks Illinois, said the fight over Prentice demonstrated how strongly people feel about the building and underscored how preservation can foster economic growth. The pro-Prentice groups arranged for several alternative plans that incorporated the building into Northwestern's medical complex, but the school said none of the ideas met its needs.
For all the pressure put on Northwestern, most Streeterville neighbors said the empty building should be knocked down. Prominent architects said the 1975 building was an engineering innovator in its time, but the cloverleaf design struck many people as ugly or dated.
"We accept that we have done what we can," McDonald said. "We have exhausted our options on Prentice."

George Ham Cannon was born on 5 November 1915 in Webster Groves, Missouri. He attended the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Michigan and was a member of the Reserve Officers Training Corps. During his last year, he was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army. Cannon graduated in June 1938 and resigned from the Army. He was then appointed to the United States Marine Corps from Michigan as a Second Lieutenant. After completing Basic School at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in May 1939, he reported for sea duty on board the light cruiser Boise. In July 1940, he transferred to the Post Service Battalion at Marine Barracks, Quantico, Virginia, which was followed by an assignment to the Marine Corps Base at San Diego, California.
In February 1941, Cannon received orders to Battery H, Second Defense Battalion, with the Battery transferring to the Sixth Defense Battalion a month later. During the Summer, his unit relocated to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, where he was promoted in August to First Lieutenant. In September, Cannon reported as Battery Commander of Battery H, Sixth Defense Battalion, Fleet Marine Force on Sand Island, Midway Islands. On 7 December, the Japanese attacked the island by surprise. Though severely wounded by an enemy shell, he remained at his post until all of his wounded men were evacuated. Despite his courage and dedication to his men, Cannon lost his own life due to a subsquent loss of blood from his wounds. For his "distinguished conduct in the line of his profession" on this occasion, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. George H. Cannon is buried at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, Honolulu, Hawaii.
USS Cannon (DE-99), 1943-1944, was named in honor of First Lieutenant George H. Cannon.

Leveraging StealthWatch for CNCI and TIC Compliance
With increasingly sophisticated attacks on the rise, improved cybersecurity has become even more critical for federal agencies. According to the Office of Management and Budget's Fiscal Year 2010 FISMA Report to Congress, cyber attacks on the federal government increased 39% in 2010 over the previous year.1
The Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative (CNCI) was established via presidential directive in 2008 to defend the nation from both immediate and future threats.2 After taking office in 2009, President Obama identified cybersecurity as one of the country's most serious economic and national security challenges, and ordered the development of a more comprehensive approach to cybersecurity in America, including the continued evolution of the CNCI.
As part of the CNCI, federal agencies must comply with the Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) initiative, which mandates the consolidation of the federal government's external access points to minimize risk and improve incident response. By providing comprehensive visibility across an organization's entire network, Lancope's StealthWatch® System not only supports compliance with the CNCI, TIC and other federal initiatives, but also significantly improves the security posture of federal agencies.
StealthWatch Provides In-Depth Network Intelligence for CNCI & TIC
Lancope's StealthWatch unifies security, network and application performance monitoring to eliminate dangerous network blind spots and dramatically reduce the time, cost and complexity associated with identifying and troubleshooting issues. By leveraging NetFlow and other flow data from existing routers and switches, StealthWatch can pinpoint the root cause of network and security problems within minutes, right down to the exact device, application or user responsible. In addition to detecting zero-day attacks that often bypass perimeter defenses, StealthWatch can also uncover insider threats such as security policy violations, misconfigured devices, data leakage, unauthorized access and network misuse not detected by traditional tools. Additionally, the historical data provided by StealthWatch is ideal for conducting network forensic analysis for incident investigation.
According to the CNCI, "to date, the U.S. Government has been implementing traditional approaches to the cybersecurity problem—and these measures have not achieved the level of security needed." Unlike traditional, perimeter-based defenses that are quickly becoming less effective in light of exponential network growth and increasingly sophisticated attacks, flow-based technologies like StealthWatch mark a progressive step forward in federal security strategy.
The CNCI and TIC initiatives call for federal agencies to improve government network security by:
- Consolidating and standardizing security for external access points through TIC Access Providers (TICAP) and Managed Trusted Internet Protocol Service (MTIPS) Providers
- Improving intrusion detection and prevention through the deployment of the EINSTEIN system
- Employing increased collaboration throughout government entities for threat detection, management and incident response
Lancope's StealthWatch features a number of advanced capabilities that take federal agencies beyond the requirement of securing the gateways at the TIC, significantly improving network and security operations. The system is scalable to meet the needs of even the largest networks, and also monitors virtual environments, enabling federal agencies to progress their infrastructure without sacrificing network performance and security. For federal networks to be truly secure, the following StealthWatch capabilities should be deployed not only by TICAPs and MTIPS providers, but also by agency-level incident responders.
|StealthWatch Capabilities Supporting CNCI & TIC
|Comprehensive, Continuous Monitoring
|StealthWatch goes above and beyond the "set it and forget it" compliance and auditing controls mandated by the CNCI to provide more comprehensive monitoring and protection of government networks. The system provides a complete picture of the entire infrastructure to create a baseline of traffic volume and normal behavior for all network devices and components. Beyond just flagging violations to specified compliance policies, StealthWatch takes a more holistic approach by detecting and alarming on any type of network activity that might signify a risk to security or performance. The comprehensive situational awareness provided by StealthWatch enables both TICAP/MTIPS and agency-level administrators to make faster, more informed decisions for addressing a wide range of network and security issues.
|Behavior-Based Anomaly Detection
|While perimeter-based defenses like IDS and IPS (as mandated by the CNCI through the EINSTEIN program) provide a key layer of network security, they are limited in scope, as it is extremely expensive and complicated to deploy them throughout the internal network. Additionally, in today's complex security environment, cyber attacks are increasingly penetrating signature-based perimeter defenses like IDS/IPS and infiltrating the interior of the network. Not relying on signature updates to detect attacks, StealthWatch uncovers both zero-day attacks that bypass perimeter defenses, as well as insider threats, complementing IDS/IPS deployments to further bolster security. Since even slight anomalies can indicate larger network issues, implementing behavioral analysis technologies at all levels of federal networks (including within individual agencies) is critical for speeding the detection of network events and improving the overall effectiveness of the CNCI.
|Session Traceability
A major component of the TIC initiative is session traceability, or the ability to take a retrospective look at security incidents to determine which systems were affected in order to speed incident response. The systems currently used by the federal government for this initiative – application gateways and full-session capture – collect overwhelming amounts of data, making network forensic analysis extremely challenging. Through the automated collection and analysis of flow data, StealthWatch significantly streamlines troubleshooting and incident response by quickly pinpointing affected systems all the way down to the agency level, without requiring time-consuming, manual data analysis. Beyond just finding the infected host, StealthWatch also enables agencies to analyze the full extent of a compromise by displaying additional details such as which other endpoints were contacted by the infected host. StealthWatch can also store flow data well beyond the 7 days online / 30 days offline required by TIC, retaining the information for months to further strengthen federal agencies' ability to respond to and contain damaging attacks. As with the capabilities mentioned above, session traceability is critical at both the TICAP/MTIPS level and the individual agency level.
|Network Bandwidth & QoS Reporting
|As external access points are consolidated across federal agencies through the TIC, maintaining high availability and performance for these diminished gateways becomes even more critical. Unlike other security technologies mandated through the TIC initiative, Lancope's StealthWatch also provides in-depth monitoring and reporting capabilities for network and application performance. StealthWatch's performance monitoring capabilities help federal agencies better comply with TIC requirements, and also keep networks up and running to ensure the continuity of vital government operations.
|Host Group Locking
|Through Host Group Locking technology, StealthWatch facilitates the simple creation and enforcement of policies separating high-risk areas of the network from other segments, for example, blocking a host group that is connected to the Internet from communicating with a host containing sensitive data. Host Group Locking also improves the ability to monitor the effectiveness of firewall policies and manage exceptions for authorized protocols.
|Identity Tracking
|StealthWatch further expedites incident response by providing quick, simple access to the exact user IDs tied to network events. This extra level of insight introduces user accountability to the security framework and greatly simplifies incident investigations.
|Log Association
|While flow collection and analysis is an extremely effective means of securing and ensuring high performance for federal networks, there are times when additional data from sources such as firewall logs can be helpful for providing additional context around an event. StealthWatch therefore enables the collection and association of log data from various sources to provide a quick understanding of what is happening across the entire network through a single view, without having to switch back and forth between various tools.
|Integrated Internal & External Monitoring
|In addition to providing in-depth intelligence on the internal network, StealthWatch also conducts behavioral analysis on data from perimeter devices such as firewalls. The system assigns Concern Index™ points to IP addresses that are continuously denied access to the network by perimeter technologies, so that when malicious users evade perimeter defenses, they will already be red hot, lighting up their activity to IT administrators as a potential concern immediately upon entry. By combining internal and external monitoring, government agencies can achieve greater contextual awareness for combating sophisticated threats.
StealthWatch Enables Increased Collaboration and Situational Awareness
A major theme reflected throughout the CNCI is increased collaboration and integration of cybersecurity strategies and technologies across the various federal agencies in an effort to strengthen security. Without adequate visibility into their own networks and the various threats they face, government agencies are not able to effectively collaborate and share vital information and best practices with one another. By delivering a single view into actionable intelligence relevant to both network and security teams, StealthWatch fills in the gaps where other technologies leave off, enabling the situational awareness and improved incident response needed to maintain a strong security posture and comply with cybersecurity regulations.

Sino Clean Energy, Inc. (NASDAQOTH:SCEI)
Sino Clean Energy, INC had a really nice 30% climb crossing into 2011 and I set a lower limit to see if I could catch it on a correction. It looks like I didn't set my limit low enough! After several rounds of watching other company's with "clean energy/coal" fall by the wayside and thumbing against them, I'm a little hesitant at one called Sino Clean Energy, especially since it's headquarter'd in China. Granted, China is the place to play on a growing need for clean energy, but it's also limited in upside from an investment standpoint due to investor skittishness over accountability. In this case, clean energy has more to do with how they pretreat the coal they sell than a magic wand. Earnings have been very consistant the last three quarters and I don't see any warning signs that existed on other China plays. Cash flow seems good and receivables VERY low. Their coal-water slurry fuel seems to have some merits and they claim to be sourcing from coal mines nearby at favorable prices. They've increased their customer base, added a factory and continue to expand at what appears to be a reasonable rate. They've seen $8 plus for different times in 2010 and I think their is more chance from this $6.50 range to break out than to drop off. Concern for China based company's will probably keep this one from seeing its full potential.

In-depth interview with Richard Thompson Ford
By Jessica Schneider Oct 16, 2008, 2:08 GMT
There is a fascinating in-depth interview with Richard Thompson Ford, author of "The Race Card."
Ford is a law professor at Stanford University, and his book was published back in January of this year, to positive reviews.
as a lawyer, he does not pad his examples nor arguments with moralizing and faux insights; instead he cuts to the meat, snaps the bone, and gorges on the slim marrow of substance such a topic proffers. And in that marrow, Fords ideas and analyses provoke thought, whether you feel his ideas are more of the same old liberal gobbledygook, or reprehensible Uncle Tomming designed to give cover for racist whites; and both claims are sure to be hurled, for Fords lawyerly training makes him hew to an impassive and evenhanded cost/benefit analysis, whereas most writers- especially with social psychology bona fides, would rather rake muck with easy emotionalism, the interviewer noted in an earlier review of the book.
I encourage readers to seek out this interview, as well as Fords book, The Race Card.
Publishers Weekly has said:
In delineating the differences between formal discrimination, discriminatory intent and discriminatory effects, Ford also reviews thorny legal cases involving, for example, McDonnell Douglas and Price Waterhouse. Readers all along the political spectrum will find much to please, annoy and provoke thought about the thin line between invidious discrimination and plan old unfairness.

Don't Bet Against JPMorgan
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Warren Buffett once said, "It takes 20 years to build a reputation and 5 seconds to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently."
It's no glowing endorsement to regard JPMorgan Chase (JPM) as the cleanest shirt in a dirty hamper. Yet I always regard that as an appropriate label, given the list of the villains that created the financial crisis. Today, however, that sentiment changed. Where do we begin?
It would be a gross understatement to say that the now infamous "London Whale" trade, which saw the bank lose more than $6 billion in complicated maneuvers, has knocked some shine off JPMorgan's armor. Criminal indictments have been filed against two former traders accused of attempting to cover up the losses and JPMorgan has been implicated for what regulators consider "manipulative market practices."
The bank opted to settle these charges for $13 billion, which includes no admission of wrongdoing. Still, given the strength of the bank's balance sheet and its deep pockets, I do question why JPMorgan resisted the fight. Not to mention, the settlement, which still leaves the door open for other criminal cases, does not release JPMorgan or any individuals from further prosecution related to the mortgage scandal.

Who We Are
Set up by the friends and family of Joe Strummer in the year after his death, we seek to reflect Joe's unique contribution to the music world by offering support, resources and performance opportunities to artists who would not normally have access to them. We are based in west London and we're a UK registered charity & totally independent non-political music charity.
What We Do
We reach out to music projects around the globe, such as WAYout Project in Sierra Leone. We also work with bands and musicians here in the UK to help get their music recorded and we provide a platform for them to showcase their music. We also put on the odd gig or two here in London.Read more
In Action
Recent projects have been to install a recording studio and provide instruments and training to WAYout project in Sierra Leone, set up a music room in Tilinanu, Malawi as well as rehearsal rooms in Belfast, London with more planned.
"As a DIY band starting out you don't need a record company, you don't even need a management company. You just need Strummerville. They have helped us out and advised us a lot over the last year. Never did the work done by a charity more befit the spirit of it's founder!" – Gaoler's Daughter
Support Strummerville
We need your support. 85p in every £1 donated to us goes directly into supporting new music, nurturing new talent and developing projects and programmes. All of which offer opportunities to people through music who would not normally have access to this type of help.

A Snapshot of a Day in the Life of the Library
By Steve Anderson
As everyone knows, it takes a talented and dedicated staff to make a large institution operate effectively. Fortunately, the State Law Library possesses such a team. Reference staff take careful steps to guide researchers to proper sources, and books rarely appear on shelves by magic alone. (There was a peculiar incident on a dark and stormy might several years ago, but that tale will have to await another issue.) At the end of the day, skilled staff create the collections, provide the services, and educate the researchers, all in order to further the Library's mission. But what--exactly--do Library staff members do all day, one might ask? Read? Shelve books? Of course, there is some of that, but also a great deal more.
In order to add a book to the Library's collection, the several staff members who comprise the "Collection Development Committee" review possible purchases, according to various "selection criteria," such as the relevance of a title to the existing collection, the authority and reputation of the author and publisher, the future reference value of the title, and others. Committee members write short evaluation comments about the prospective acquisition on a recommendation form. Often, there is a meeting of the minds, but on some occasions staff meet to discuss difficult decisions. Then, depending on the cost and the publisher, the ordering process is either straightforward or a bit cumbersome. The most important consideration during the ordering process, of course, is compliance with purchasing policies. The second most important step is the creation of a record in the Library's online catalog, which then permits staff to track the order, check in the item when it arrives, and catalog it according to several national standards. Library staff label and shelve the book, after the cataloging process (which could be easy (especially when using information from OCLC's WorldCat system) or complex, as in the case of a rare or new book by a smaller publisher). Staff follow special steps in the acquisitions process for research databases, Maryland state agency materials, and Federal government documents. Finally, staff include the book on the Library's New Publications List. Is that all there is then? Not really. Continuation subscriptions require supplementation, so staff have to discard old volumes and insert new "pocket parts" or looseleaf filings. Then there might be the need to consider shifting some books to make space for newer ones. There could be book repair or preservation concerns. Staff also periodically evaluate the need to continue subscriptions and make decisions regarding permanent retention or withdrawal from the collection.
The Library's reference staff similarly makes multiple steps appear seamless and effortless. While in-person assistance allows for a fairly complete question-and-answer session, telephone calls and e-mails sometimes require additional follow-up in order to determine what sources might be useful. Staff members know by heart where to find some answers to routine questions, but other requests can be more challenging, especially when the questioner is unfamiliar with legal terms. The Library's staff is very careful to not apply the law to any patron's individual situation, but guiding them to helpful sources frequently necessitates several steps: the index to one source might lead to a statute in another, which takes the reader to information on yet another source, and so on. By knowing the authorship of such resources, the librarian can explain to the patron the differences between primary and secondary sources, the concept of precedent, and the use of citator services. This is an especially useful skill these days, because so much information is online; generally speaking, librarians possess a sophisticated ability to sift through intricate search queries to find the most useful resources. Sometimes, too, a question takes the librarian "outside" the walls of the Library, searching for referral sources or other libraries from which to request interlibrary loans. The Library's clerks are dedicated to assisting patrons with specialized requests, such as locating older books in the Library's storage area and providing scans or copies for document delivery requests. Finally, there is the continual feedback that the reference staff provides to co-workers involved in the ordering process and the maintenance of the Library's websites. Assisting Library patrons requires detailed expertise, patience, and a broad knowledge of research skills.
Another aspect of staff activity revolves around the Library's educational and outreach programs. One of the key services is the People's Law Library, which aims to provide legal self-help to low- and moderate-income Marylanders. The web content coordinator reviews and updates current content on the site, develops new topic areas according to written protocols, and makes plans for continuing improvements to the site. Additionally, State Law Library staff members work closely with stakeholders from the legal services community who comprise the Content Advisory Committee for the People's Law Library. The State Law Library provides other instructional opportunities as well. For example, staff created practical, hands-on curricula for the formal legal research classes it offers to Judiciary employees. Librarians routinely give tours of the facility to student and professional groups, and visitors can learn more about legal history and the Library's collections through displays in the building's lobby area and in the Library's Special Collections Room. Finally, the Library's outreach services librarian provides consultation services to smaller Circuit Court libraries throughout the State and works with public librarians on various initiatives.
This quick snapshot of the Library staff's typical day might help answer questions about what librarians do during an ordinary day. Library workers thrive on the opportunity to be of service, learn new skills and ideas, and work on a wide variety of tasks. Even if much of this work is accomplished "behind the scenes," it adds significant value to the Library's collection and to a patron's efficient research experience. Do librarians like to read? Sure. Do librarians like books? Maybe. Do librarians help give meaning to information and streamline the research process, too? Absolutely! It really is in just a day's work.

HeinOnline Now Hosts Maryland Session Laws
HeinOnline has recently completed adding Maryland session laws from 1777 to 2007. The Maryland State Law Library subscribes to this database. Hein's version includes a robust search and the ability to print multiple pages.
The most common use of session laws is to locate the chapter number cited in a particular section of the Maryland Code. This is very easy to do in HeinOnline. Below is an example of a search for Chapter 42 of the Laws of Maryland for 2000, using the "Field Search." The same search works just as well in the Advanced Search option if search terms are included in quotes.
To print a chapter you will need to note the starting and ending pages. Hein does not automatically include the starting end ending pages for each chapter, presumably because one chapter may start and another one end on the same page.
Limitations in Maryland Law: Actions and Statutes
By Rudolf B. Lamy
"Limitations of Action" or "Statutes of Limitation" are two legal terms that, in general, mean the same thing in Maryland legal practice. Some legal writers have observed that "Limitations of Actions" refers to a broader set of rules dealing with the how the passage of time bars a claim. Therefore, the term "Limitations of Actions" often is used as the topic entry for many treatises and legal encyclopedias and may be a preferred term in other states. A "Statute of Limitation," on the other hand, is a specific legislative act defining a period of time in which to bring claims. (For a thorough discussion, see Ochoa & Wistrich, The Puzzling Purposes of Statutes of Limitation, 28 Pac. L.J. 453 (1997).) The Annotated Code of Maryland uses the terms interchangeably, yet their application means different things in the civil and criminal contexts.
The Maryland Law Encyclopedia (West) describes the two as follows:
Limitation of Actions §1 Generally (14 MLE 391 (2000)): "A statute of limitations is a legislative act limiting the time within which an action may be brought. Limitations are created by statute and derive their authority therefrom; they are not judicial acts. Statutes of limitations not only promote judicial economy, they are designed to encourage the prompt ascertainment of legal rights and ensure fairness to the defendants by precluding the filing of stale claims."
Criminal Law §67 Generally (7 MLE 317 (2000)): "Statutes of limitations in criminal cases create a bar to prosecution, and the time within which the offense is committed becomes a jurisdictional fact; the state, therefore, has the burden of proving affirmatively the commission of the offense charged within the period limited by statute for its prosecution, and if the prosecution relies upon an exception to remove the bar of statute of limitations, the burden of proof is on the prosecution to show the applicability of the exception."
The 2009 Index to the Annotated Code of Maryland has listings for both "Limitation of Actions" and "Statute of Limitations." These listing are, in fact, identical and cover everything from "Abandoned property disposition" to "Workplace fraud." Individual statutes which cover "Limitation" appear throughout the Code, but you may find that the Courts & Judicial Proceedings Article is possibly the most often noted, followed closely by the Commercial Law, Real Property and Criminal Law Articles.
The Courts & Judicial Proceedings Article, sections 5-101 through 5-117 apply directly to Limitations. Related statutes will be found in the same title. Criminal law limitations most often appear in the Code with the specific, individual offenses to which they would be applied. The criminal statute sections on limitations also usually refer back to the Courts & Judicial Proceedings Article. Both the Courts & Judicial Proceedings and Criminal Law Articles provide a plethora of annotations and revisor's notes; enough of each to provide as many references to case law and secondary sources as a practitioner or researcher might need. If citations to case law are needed, the "West's Maryland Digest" has references to almost 30 pages of judicial opinions, all of which are indexed in detail.
The Maryland State Law Library lists nearly 100 references in its online catalog on the subject "Limitation of Actions," both Maryland-specific and for Federal courts in Maryland. The Library's oldest source on the subject dates to 1810. The Library also offers both document delivery and interlibrary loan services, which can make limitations material in other libraries readily available to our customers.

He has been lucky enough to work with many of his peers including Franz Treichler, Michael Gira, Francisco Lopez, Mick Harris, Anton Fier, Ikue Mori, and John Zorn among others, and has been an integral part of groups including Scorn, Old, Khanate, Atomsmasher (now Phantomsmasher), and Death Ambient. Many record labels that he has admired have in turn released recordings of his, validating his existence as an artist in the process. Such labels include Kranky, Ant-Zen, Hydra Head, Southern Lord, Asphodel, Fat Cat, Earache, and Ipecac Recordings. Plotkin continues to form new groups and create exciting sounds with musicians and friends alike, making the experience one not only of artistic merit but also of life affirmation and personal gratification as well. Without these beneficial factors, the sounds need not exist.

What is AAKG?
Arginine alpha-ketoglutarate (AAKG) is a salt of the amino acid arginine and alpha-ketoglutaric acid. It is marketed as a body building supplement. Nitric oxide supplements usually contain arginine alpha-ketoglutarate, which purportedly increases and maintains a high level of nitric oxide in muscles. In theory, the production of nitric oxide from the supplemental arginine promotes vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels, which in theory may make you look vascular [veiny]), which increases blood flow, oxygen transport, and delivery of nutrients to skeletal muscle during resistance training. This purportedly results in dramatic increases in muscle size and strength.
No scientific research I am aware of exists that supports the assertion that AAKG will increase muscle definition or lean body mass. There is however a scientific study about 35 resistance trained males taking 12 grams of AAKG for 8-weeks. "The researchers found no significant differences between the groups in changes in body mass, fat free mass, fat mass, or percent body fat. Changes in bench press 1RM, sprint peak power, time to peak power, and rate to fatigue were significantly greater in the AAKG"
I bought Higher Power AAKG and started taking it earlier this week. I am generally extremely skeptical when it comes to supplements. However, I can vouch that this stuff works. I have had my chest day today. I generally do 225 x 10 for my first set on the bench, with the last rep being almost to failure. After doing 10 reps earlier today, I put the bar down and thought to myself, "that's weird, I think I can do more." I put on 20 more pounds for my second set (10s on each side) and knocked out 9 reps. I've experienced the ability to do more weight on every single thing I did today. The pump at the end was unbelievable.
This stuff works in increasing strength. I may just be one of the lucky few who responds very well to it, but it definitely worked for me. Companies claim that it also promotes vascularity. Honestly, I haven't really noticed much difference, if any (yet). I am pretty vascular at the moment because I've gotten leaner than I've ever been over the summer, but I wouldn't attribute it to four days of AAKG use. Nevertheless, at about $.30 per day (6 grams recommended dose), it is well worth the cost
I've been "going to the gym" for several years, but it wasn't until February of this year that I got serious about bodybuilding. I've been taking 3 pills of Velocity XT (for the caffeine effect mostly) and two teaspoons of creatine before each workout since February.
Any questions, just ask. I've scheduled a reminder on my calendar to update this thread after three weeks of using AAKG

"It's the same with all actresses. Whether it's their beautiful long, wavy hair or their extraordinary lips or their sparkling green eyes or warm laugh, they're pegged to some physical attribute.

8 New Mom Stresses -- and How to Relieve Them
I Don't Trust My Instincts
"Everyone says to trust your instincts, but it's hard to do when you're so new at all this parenting stuff."
It's true: as a first-time parent, you have no idea what you're doing. Yet you desperately want to get it right. "As a result, I've seen a lot of moms hand their brains over to Dr. Expert, rather than listen to what they really believe to be right," says mom and parenting lecturer Julie Barnhill, author of One Tough Mother (Baker). "But you spend more time with your baby than anyone else does, so you really are the pro. Trust in this fact, and go with your gut. Try whatever you sense will work best, and if it doesn't work, then speed dial your doctor or friends."
Yes, it's a bit of a leap of faith, but you won't truly gain confidence as a mother until you take it. "As a newborn, my daughter Leah wanted to be held constantly -- she'd cry the instant she left my arms," says Tisha Crews Keller, of Tallahassee, Florida. "When my mother came to visit, she said, 'You'd better put that baby down. You're going to spoil her!' But I truly felt I was doing the right thing for Leah -- making her feel safe and loved. Leah grew out of that phase. And now, at 19 months, she's a very independent, unspoiled, and not at all clingy child. It took a lot for me to trust myself and stand up to my mother, but I'm glad I did. With every little success like this, the more you believe in your instincts as a mother."
What can also make you second-guess your instincts: a case of TMI (too much information). It's so easy these days to open a book, go online, or text your relatives whenever you have a baby-related question. Having all this advice at your fingertips is invaluable, but there comes a point of overload. "I totally fell into the TMI trap!" Levinson says. "I would read everything I could about, say, getting my daughter to nap -- and that's when I'd stress out and doubt my instincts the most. There'd be so much advice, a lot of it contradictory, that I'd end up even more uncertain about what to do. I've made it a rule to educate myself to a degree and then just go with what feels right."
"Also realize that even if your instinct turns out to be wrong, it's not going to have a disastrous effect on your child," Barnhill says. You'll try another approach. "What's nice is that you learn together. That's part of what builds the relationship between you and your child and makes you a stronger mother."
