Oracle America, Inc. v. Google Inc.
Filing 131
ORDER RE SCHEDULE FOR NARROWING ISSUES FOR TRIAL. Signed by Judge Alsup on May 3, 2011. (whalc1, COURT STAFF) (Filed on 5/3/2011)
1 2 3 4 5 6 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 7 FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 8 9 ORACLE AMERICA, INC., 11 For the Northern District of California United States District Court 10 12 13 14 Plaintiff, v. ORDER RE SCHEDULE FOR NARROWING ISSUES FOR TRIAL GOOGLE INC., Defendant. / 15 16 No. C 10-03561 WHA Having reviewed the parties' memoranda regarding the reexamination proceedings and the 17 streamlining of this action, for which counsel are thanked, the Court proposes a three-step 18 process, as below. Each side may file a five-page (double spaced, twelve-point Times New 19 Roman font, no footnotes, and no attachments) critique of the tentative schedule by NOON ON 20 MAY 6, 2011. After taking any critiques into account, the schedule will be finalized. 21 Currently, there are 132 claims from seven patents asserted in this action, and there are 22 hundreds of prior art references in play for invalidity defenses. This is too much. The following 23 schedule will ensure that only a triable number of these items — three claims and eight prior art 24 references — are placed before the jury in October, all others to be forsaken. Oracle will 25 surrender all of its present infringement claims against Google based on the 129 asserted claims 26 that will not be tried. Oracle may not renew those infringement claims in a subsequent action 27 except as to new products. 28 1 The first reduction will follow claim construction. Within SEVEN DAYS after the finalized 2 claim construction order issues, Oracle shall narrow its patent infringement case to 40 asserted 3 claims. Within SEVEN DAYS after that, Google shall narrow its invalidity case to 120 prior art 4 references. It is anticipated that this first pair of reductions will be completed by the end of May. 5 The second reduction will follow expert disclosures. By AUGUST 24 (five days after reply 6 expert reports must be served), Oracle shall narrow its patent infringement case to 20 asserted 7 claims. By AUGUST 29 (five days later), Google shall narrow its invalidity case to 60 prior art 8 references. The parties will then have a week of expert discovery remaining, and another week 9 before summary-judgment motions must be filed. The third reduction will follow summary judgment. Between the date on which the 11 For the Northern District of California United States District Court 10 summary-judgment order issues and the final pretrial conference, Oracle shall select no more than 12 three asserted claims and Google shall select no more than eight prior art references for trial. 13 All others will be forsaken. Counsel did not specify their understanding of a "triable number" of 14 claims and prior art references, so the Court selected these figures based on its own views and 15 experience. The exact dates for the final selections will be set in the summary-judgment order. 16 Unless summary-judgment motions are filed early, the summary-judgment hearing will fall on 17 October13. If that happens, then the final pretrial conference currently scheduled for October 17 18 will be continued to October24 in order to allow time for this process. 19 The trial remains set to begin on October 31. The parties, however, are requested to 20 comment on the following. If our trial were postponed until after the inter partes reexaminations, 21 to what extent would the results there possibly moot out the need for a trial here? When will the 22 ex parte reexaminations be completed? 23 24 IT IS SO ORDERED. 25 26 Dated: May 3, 2011. WILLIAM ALSUP UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 27 28 2

This is a reminder to all Bros that June 12, 2015 is the only date you need to have circled in your calendar.
This is a reminder to all Bros that June 12, 2015 is the only date you need to have circled in your calendar.
In excellent movie news, 2013's It Girl Emily Ratajkowski has been tabbed to act in the upcoming Entourage movie.
We already know the Entourage movie is going to have Nina Agdal.
To the delight of Bros everywhere, the Entourage movie started shooting this week.
Flip your Women of Entourage calendar to the January "Jamie-Lynn Sigler" spread: The long-awaited movie will commence filming on the 16th of 2014's first month, series bromaginer Doug Ellin announced today on Twitter.
A finer pairing has never been conceived in all the history of Hollywood.
I'm just going to go on the record here and say that I refuse to call actor Jerry Ferrara anything other than "Turtle" until the filmming of the Entourage movie is complete.
After weeks of back and forth about which cast members were holding back progress, the Entourage movie is officially going to happen.

I finally finshed school and got my BS in Computer Info Tech...Yay! It only took me twenty years off and on...LOL...but hey, I'm done, and that's all that matters now.
Well I know I've been away for a while but this new job has been so crazy busy!!! Luckily we were able to talk our boss into letting us work a 4 day work week since we were there over ten or eleven hours each day anyway, so now we get an extra day off...yay! So I now work Mon - Thurs 7a - 6ish...and sometimes have to participate in calls on my off day, but that's ok. I would much rather do that from home. I know we will eventually be going around the clock, and we had all agreed upon a work schedule...a couple months ago actually....but now that the time is getting closer ... some want to discuss it again...ugh!! I just hope I get to keep my original choice since no one wanted it to begin with (mon - thurs 3p -2a)....but some people feel if they're not happy...they want everyone miserable...LOL...I guess we'll see on Tues at our weekly staff meeting.
Anyway....I hope everyone is doing great!! Can't wait to catch up!

The participants also had the opportunity to have lunch with women who are engineering and science professionals who work at companies including GE Aviation, Gentex Corporation and the Van Andel Institute. Many professional women from GRCC also participated including Kathy Roberts, Tari Mattox, Patricia Dockham, Amy Kudrna, Laurie Chesley, Jodi Dickerson, Laurie Foster, Kate Kryger, and Jan Colvin. Pam Scott, Leah VanHartesveldt and Jennifer Batten worked with the community partners to prepare for the event. The STEM Girl Genius Conference is in its third year and is a collaborative effort between Fifth Third Bank, Kettering University, the Catholic Secondary School Foundation and Grand Rapids Community College.
Physical Sciences Faculty, Staff and Students Participate in National Chemistry Week Activities
The annual Chemistry in the Mall activity was held on Saturday, October 12th (2013) in Muskegon. The event was sponsored by the West Michigan division of the American Chemical Society (WMACS). The Physical Sciences Department hosted two activity tables that included making slime and silly putty, doing magic-marker chromatography and assembling fruit batteries. Thirty GRCC students, who are enrolled in courses taught by Linda Bramble, Tom Neils and Bernard Liburd, showed off their knowledge of chemistry to hundreds of children and adults in the community and many earned Academic Service Learning credit. Adjunct faculty members Jim Krikke and Duane VandenBrink and former GRCC student Kat Wirth demonstrated how much fun chemistry can be by putting on Chemistry Shows on the event main stage. Bernard Liburd and Jennifer Batten coordinated the Physical Sciences Department role in the event. Thank you to Pam Scott and Leah VanHartesveldt for all of their help in readying the supplies and materials for the tables.
STEM Community Outreach-Fall 2012 and Winter 2013
Tom Neils and Academic Service Learning students from Organic Chemistry I lab have been working in partnership with several science faculty from GVSU to create and operate a Science Club at City Middle school in Grand Rapids. The after school club meets each Wednesday afternoon at the middle school to work on projects based in biology, geology, chemistry and physics. About 30 middle school students participate and have carried out experiments and activities such as Fruity DNA, Lighting Blast and CSI Crime Scene Investigations.
Godwin Heights MiddleSchool Academic Service Learning Event-11/16/2012 You may have heard the noise on the 4th and 5th floors of the Science Building on Friday 11/16 as 300 middle school students came to GRCC to work on science projects and to tour the Science Building. The event was sponsored by the Office of the Dean of Arts and Sciences and the Physical Science Department and was acollaboration with the Grand Rapids Public Museum. Academic Service Learning played a big role in the event. Nearly forty Academic Service Learning students in classes taught by Linda Bramble, Tom Neils, Leigh Kleinert and Jennifer Batten participated by helping the 5th and 6th graders with their inquiry based science projects and by taking the kids on tours. The students worked on projects called Clearing a Path to the Heart, Protect the Pill, Funny Putty and The Dirty Water Project. The students also went on a Scavenger Hunt through the Science Building looking for items like periodic tables, skeletons, rotovaps,and carnivorous plants. Many GRCC staff and faculty worked together to make the day a success. Leigh Kleinert, Pam Scott, Tom Neils, Anesa Behrem, Leah VanHartesveldt, Jennifer Batten and Linda Bramble welcomed the students and their teachers. They also stocked and restocked supplies, supplied food, recruited ASL students, set up, and cleaned up. We also thank Jeff Stone, Holly Hoare, Grant Heidenreich, Pam Laureto and Matt Douglas for their help with the tours.
STEM for Girls and Academic Service Learning-11/3/2012
On Saturday, November 3rd Grand Rapids Community College hosted more than 170 5th to 8th grade girls from West Michigan to participate in an experiential Science + Technology + Engineering + Math (STEM) Girl Genius Conference. The day-long conference was designed to encourage young women to seek careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math. Throughout the day, participants had the opportunity to carry out hands-on engineering activities and engage with women in STEM field careers, including Dr. Julie Davis Turner, Ph.D. Assistant Dean at the Van Andel Institute Graduate School who presented the keynote address on Possibility Thinking. The STEM Girl Genius Conference is a collaborative effort by Fifth Third Bank, Kettering University, the Catholic Secondary School Foundation and Grand Rapids Community College.
Provost Gilda Gely began the event by welcoming the participants to Grand Rapids Community College and introducing Mary Gilliam, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Engineering at Kettering University, who gave the opening address. Then, over 25 Academic Service Learning (ASL) students from the Biological and Physical Sciences Departments helped the participants with the hands-on engineering activities. Specifically, Leigh Kleinert, Academic Service Learning Faculty Scholar, Tom Neils, Linda Bramble and Jennifer Batten had students from their biology and chemistry courses serve as volunteers and earn ASL credit. Leigh Kleinert did a wonderful job in guiding the participants through the Biomedical Engineering activity Clearing a Path to the Heart, which allowed the girls to develop a system to carry out a simulated angioplasty. Linda Bramble brought her years of experience in water resources to lead the participants through the environmental engineering activity The Dirty Water Project. In this activity, the participants built a purification system to remove dissolved organic material and particulate from water.
The School of Arts and Sciences had many women in the sciences participate in the event by serving as mentors. The mentors had lunch with a small group of girls and talked with them about their education and careers in the sciences. Dean of Arts and Sciences Laurie Chesley, Physical Science Faculty Sandy Andrews, Linda Bramble, Patricia Dockham, Elaine Kampmueller, Amy Kudrna, and Kathy Roberts, Biological Sciences Faculty Laurie Foster, Leigh Klienert, Kate Kryger, and Tamara Szost and Laboratory Technicians Anesa Behrem and Leah VanHartesveldt all served as mentors to the young women at the event. Pam Scott and Jennifer Batten served as GRCC event coordinators. Pam and Jennifer worked with the community partners to select and develop the activities for the event and to coordinate the event logistics.
We want to thank Becky Yoder for her help with room reservations and logistics, Dan Zehr and his team for providing the wonderful meals for the event, Dale Young, James Schafer and James Schultz for their help with set up and clean up, Duane David for setting up the audio-visual equipment and to Klaas Kwant and his team for recording the event.
Academic Service Learning (ASL) is Now Offered in Some Physical Science Courses-March 2 and 3, 2012
The first event that incorporated ASL into Physical Science Courses was held on March 2nd and 3rd 2012 at the Grand Rapids Public Museum (GRPM). The GRPM held a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) Career Exploration Event and 23 students and 3 faculty members from GRCC's Physical Science Department volunteered. GRCC was one of 24 area colleges, universities and companies represented at the event, which had the purpose of introducing area children and teens to careers in the STEM fields. On March 2nd over 800 middle and high school students from 10 different schools and on March 3rd over 1000 people from the community attended the event.
The GRCC students presented information on Careers in Polymer Science. The students, who earned service learning credit, readied for the event by researching the synthesis, history and industrial uses of different polymers. They prepared posters with information about the polymers and made video presentations showing how the polymers were synthesized. The posters and videos were displayed and shown at the museum event.
While at the event, the GRCC students demonstrated their polymer synthesis skills to attendees and helped attendees make their own 'slime' and 'silly putty' polymers. The students did a great job in explaining the uses and importance of polymers in our daily lives. Further, this event was a great opportunity for the science students to meet and talk with representatives from companies like Perrigo, Amway and Gentex who hire scientists and engineers.
The students who participated from CHM 298 (Independent Study with Tom Neils) were Sean Stevens, Katherine Worth, Jamie Grit, Calvin Porter, Alyssa Nyenhuis, Lindsey Bigney, Jacob Patin, and Jahanzaib Nadeem. Volunteers James Ayers, Carly Greenhoe, Lanora Herrema, Ronald Kamgang, Austin Williams, Gerard Loranger, Long Tong, Samantha Gamble, Genevieve Colter, Dan Slaktoski, Brad Tait and Leslie Bileth are in CHM 271 (Organic Chemistry II lab with Jennifer Batten). Linda Bramble had three students from her CHM 240 course who also volunteered at the event and earned service learning credit.
Thank you to Klaas Kwant and Hannah Prill for filming and editing the student demonstration videos. These videos are linked to the main Physical Science web page. Thank you also to Pam Scott and Leah Van Hartesveldt for their help in ordering supplies and preparing solutions for the event and to Sandy Andrews and Michael Schavey for their help with setting up service learning course designations on CHM 240, CHM 271 and CHM 298. The Physical Science Department looks forward to offering our students more ASL options.

Texas Republicans have voted to move forward with new abortion restrictions after limiting testimony at a public hearing and imposing strict security precautions. On a party-line vote, the Republican majority approved the bill early Wednesday and sent it to the full Texas House for a vote next week.
Gov. Rick Perry has called on the Legislature to move quickly after he called them into a second special session to pass the bill that will limit when, where and how a woman may obtain an abortion.
"The legislation that they're proposing to pass would turn back the hands of time--which seems like something they're really good at," abortion rights activists Angela Goss said More than 3,500 people came to the Capitol and registered a position on the bill. More than 1,000 signed up to testify, but fewer than 100 people had a chance to express their views. The top Republican on the committee limited testimony to eight hours.
This time around, anti-abortion activists are also doing more to be seen.
"Not sure if we're outnumbered or not, but it definitely looks like there's a lot if blue here today," anti-abortion activist Bonnie Pendergrass said.
Testimony was cut off at 12:01 a.m., as promised by the committee chair. Democrat Rep. Sylvester Turner said the timeline was an unfair "artificial deadline."
"I do believe that it is wrong, to cut them off. I respect you as being the chair but I think it's wrong what we're doing. I think we are pushing things through," Rep. Turner said.
The House could hear the bill on the full floor as soon as next week.

"Talent alone cannot make a writer. There must be a man behind the book; a personality which, by birth and quality, is pledged to the doctrines there set forth, and which exists to see and state things so, and not otherwise."
"The really unhappy person is the one who leaves undone what they can do, and starts doing what they don't understand; no wonder they come to grief."
"Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place."
"The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spreads in all direction."

"… because I don't care anymore. I am a communist, I think people are too stupid to vote and if you don't like it go to the Dean because I have tenure and there is nothing they can say to stop me."
With absolutely no hyperbole that was an actual statement made by a professor of Philosophy during my early college years. Earning an Associates, Bachelors & Masters I've spent a lot of time in classrooms listening to garbage like that.
In many classes I always knew the right answers, not because I was better prepared or more enlightened than other students but because I knew the political arguments that drove research. I read Chomsky & Zinn, devoured journal articles and left-wing media, and was raised on liberalism; it wasn't hard for me to see the direction professors were taking and then write an essay or adapt an argument that would please them rather than challenge anyones beliefs.
I was fortunate enough to work in research under a very large Federal grant exploring education not long after receiving my last degree. The purpose of the research was conservative; get kids interested in Math, Science & Technology, an important national priority in this age of innovation and growing overseas competition. The means to achieving that objective, though well meaning as they were, never seemed quite right. They were wasteful, often unproductive and without millions of dollars to guide them sustainability or the ability to replicate any results across the nation seem impossible.
I was given a window into the wasteful and mismanaged government system; I spent my life believing that government could be a solution to our problems, but everywhere I turned I began to see how government can often get in the way.
I was also able to see poverty first hand. Working alongside a deteriorating urban school district I was exposed to children who were impoverished. So many of them came to school loaded with iPods, portable DVD players and designer sneakers. I saw that their parents drove expensive cars and spent money on anything but the essentials. The schools themselves were surrounded by the homes in which many students lived. They are rundown neighborhoods where the houses are falling apart but students would tell me they had cable television, the latest DVD movies, they even had computers to update Facebook and MySpace pages, and so many children had the latest cell phones to txt message friends during class.
The schools themselves have growing access to new technology. The walls are crumbling and the rooms subject to rat and mice infestations but the main reason books as well as pens and pencils are in short supply is because kids would either lose or deface them or their parents would not send their children to class with the basic materials needed to learn. A ruler, a pencil, a book of paper, they have their iPods and cell phones, but not the essentials to learn.
Many of these students never show up to school, some coming back into class after weeks or even months of being absent for no reason other than they do not want to go. It is the teacher's job to manage a classroom where many of the students have no knowledge of the lessons that come before.
The experiences I had are not rare or limited to the area. I have spoken with many social workers, teachers, educators, politicians and community workers in NYS and across the country. I have learned that the key component to our nations failing schools, rising crime and urban drug abuse is not a simple lack of funds; a position advocated by every social science teacher and liberal activist I have ever met, many of whom have spent only superficial time in cities, sending graduate students instead to collect data in the environment.
Many of those who live in poverty know how to game the system, to combine welfare benefits with tax free earnings and profits made from illegal activities. This cash is not spent bettering oneself or the community, it is used rather to drain the system and make our world that much bleaker, to poison their bodies and give wasteful material things to their children that replace education, hard work or true love.
Unfortunetly there are some who raise their children in terrible abuse, some still who place their young ones into the sex or drug trades placing absolutely no value but monetary on the lives of innocent children.
What is lacking is not a financial leg up but a core set of values. In four years of working with the downtrodden I found more often than not a complete and utter lack of essential and fundamental skills. While there are endless programs, especially here in New York State, to work with this population the old adage about feeding someone rather than teaching them to fish holds true. Unwilling to change, many of these people will simply drain resources from the majority giving nothing in return.
There is no value of property, family, work, structure, health, environment and most of all community. I have witnessed fights break out in the threats, been threatened when I refused to give money to addicts, watched children threaten the lives of teachers and deface property. I have also seen children exceed beyond all expectations, learn, prosper, get college scholarships to become the first in their family to go to higher education and defy all expectations at every level.
Yes there were many exceptions to the negative rules, children and parents who care and want to work with teachers, police officers, city councils and the community organizers so valued by the left. They are too often the minority and too often sucked back into lives of crime, drugs, sexual exploitation and despair.
The more I witnessed first hand how a lack of values and a sense of entitlement was destroying lives in the city the more I saw it throughout our society even with the wealthiest around me. Born to baby boomers and living within the "me" generation, I have spent much of my life with a similar expectations; a belief that I was owed a good job, material welfare and the American dream handed to me on a silver platter with little work or ingenuity on my part.
No silver platter exists; stepping out of the college classroom opened my eyes to that. As I began working hard from the bottom up, I began looking inward, taking every opportunity available to rise and making the changes necessary to adapt myself to jobs and hold lasting and beneficial relationships.
As I progress I continue to watch others my age sit back believing they will start a business, become a filmmaker, get on television, strike gold as a music producer, or simply be recognized for their uniqueness while lounging at a bar or Starbucks and handed all that they need by someone else. They make up a great deal of the financial mess that has created our nations fiscal crisis, they are heading into their early to mid thirties with little on a resume but larger than life demands.
With no value for work or the process of walking up a ladder, they sit and wait, aging like our nation, adrift and looking for a handout.
At its core is liberalism and neo-liberal marketing slogans like "compassionate conservatism" that has lead to the embrace of massive spending, easy credit, failed policies and a belief by the majority that they are "owed" everything at no cost.
Next: Conclusion to this post is coming soon

The Democratic race for public advocate continues for another two weeks, as Brooklyn Councilman Bill de Blasio and former Public Advocate Mark Green said they were ready for the runoff primary. NY1's Bobby Cuza filed the following report.
Frontrunner Mark Green expected a night of political rebirth Tuesday, but instead he failed to capture the 40 percent of votes needed to avoid a runoff for public advocate, a position he served for two terms from 1994 to 2001.
Instead, Green came in second in the Democratic primary to Brooklyn Councilman Bill de Blasio, who delivered what sounded like a victory speech.
"I have a question for everyone here this evening. Are you ready for a runoff?" asked de Blasio.
De Blasio earned 33 percent of the vote Tuesday, compared to 31 percent for Green. Queens Councilman Eric Gioia, civil rights attorney Norman Siegel and Brooklyn lawyer Imtiaz Syed each failed to break 20 percent.
Green, who narrowly lost the mayoral election to Michael Bloomberg in 2001, had more name recognition than his opponents and enjoyed a healthy lead in the polls. Yet he insisted the result was no disappointment.
"I thought from the beginning when you had five candidates divided into 100 percent, it was very hard to get to 40. I always expected a runoff," said Green.
Meanwhile, Gioia and Siegel thanked their supporters but vowed to continue to make a difference for the city.
"There are too many people in this city who struggle. There are too many people who are vulnerable. There are too many people who are in a forgotten middle class," said Gioia. "The issues we have stood up for and fought for mean more than this one election."
"It's always important to fight the good fight, and even if you don't win in a particular race, that doesn't mean the fight wasn't worth doing and that the fight doesn't continue," said Siegel.
The result sets up what could be a bruising two-week showdown. De Blasio challenged Green to 10 debates over that span, and both men were already taking shots at their runoff opponent.
"The fact is, Mark has not been involved in the last eight years and I don't think he's in touch with the problems we face today," said de Blasio. "Today we need new ideas. We need new approaches, new strategies to make our city better."
"This campaign for public advocate and the future of New York starts all over again tomorrow in a contest between a lifelong consumer advocate and a life long political insider. I can't wait," said Green.
Whoever wins the runoff on September 29 is the overwhelming favorite to beat Republic candidate Alex Zablocki in the general election in November.

Medal of Freedom Recipient Maya Angelou Dies at 86 (FishbowlDC)
Poet and author Maya Angelou died Wednesday at the age of 86, according to her literary agent Helen Brann. Angelou received the country's highest civilian honor — the Medal of Freedom — in 2011 from President Obama, and is most widely known for her award-winning memoir I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings. NYT The cause of death was not immediately known, but Brann said Angelou had been frail for some time and had heart problems. GalleyCat In addition to writing, Angelou proved to be an accomplished Renaissance woman who worked as an activist, entertainer, streetcar conductor, magazine editor, college professor and lecturer. CNN Angelou's legacy is twofold. She leaves behind a body of important artistic work that influenced several generations. But the 86-year-old was praised by those who knew her as a good person, a woman who pushed for justice and education and equality. In her full life, she wrote staggeringly beautiful poetry. She also wrote a cookbook and was nominated for a Tony. Reuters Literary and entertainment figures, politicians and fans mourned her passing on Wednesday. Obama said his sister, Maya, was named for the author, whom he called "a brilliant writer, a fierce friend and a truly phenomenal woman." Media mogul Oprah Winfrey, who frequently threw lavish birthday parties for Angelou and considered her a mentor, said she would remember her friend most for how she lived her life. "She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace," Winfrey said.

How many quart jars will this hold? |david hodge| Page
ATG Stores Answer
This product is intended for cooking, but it could hold one quart sized mason jar. If you are looking for a pressure cooker to use primarily for canning, I would recommend looking into the Mirro 16 quart pressure cooker/canner, as it can hold 5 quart sized mason jars.

Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis keen on Leyton Orient
Leyton Orient could be subject to a takeover by Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis, according to reports in Italy.
De Laurentiis apparently wants to follow in the footsteps of the Pozzo family, who own Udinese and Spanish club Granada and last year took over at Championship side Watford.
The Hornets were then controversially loaned a host of players from the two clubs with the likes of Matej Vydra and Almen Abdi firing them into the play-offs, where they were narrowly beaten by Crystal Palace in the final.
According to the reports, De Laurentiis wants a similar tie-in with Orient, where he could send Napoli's younger players to gain first-team experience.
Orient confirmed there has been no contact from Italy, however, a spokesman for the League One club added: "They are welcome to give us a call if they want to."

The Holocaust, that is what is happening right now in GazaThe president of Israel at this moment should be taken to the International Criminal Court together with the president of the United States.Hugo Chavez
The reason that Israel has been able to appropriate Palestine unto itself with American aid and support is that Israel controls the explanation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. At least 90% of Americans, if they know anything at all of the issue, know only the Israeli propaganda line. Israel has been able to control the explanation, because the powerful Israel Lobby brands every critic of Israeli policy as an anti-semite who favors a second holocaust of the Jews.Paul Craig Roberts
Better contraceptives will control population only if people will use them. A nuclear holocaust can be prevented only if the conditions under which nations make war can be changed. The environment will continue to deteriorate until pollution practices are abandoned. We need to make vast changes in human behavior.B. F. Skinner
Jewish people have been victims of anti-Semitism in many parts of the world, and in Europe they were the target of the Holocaust, the ultimate abomination. Yet, we cannot expect Palestinians to accept this as a reason why the wrongs done to themKofi Annan
Yet, nearly 6 decades after the Holocaust concluded, Anti-Semitism still exists as the scourge of the world.Eliot Engel
The radio even weren't allowed to say there was a Holocaust and people were being killed right, left and center in these terrible camps.Patrick Macnee
The holocaust against the unborn is the greatest sin they could ever do or even ever participate in.Norma McCorvey
It took me fifty years to deal with the Holocaust at all. And I did it in a literary way.Leonard Baskin
The Holocaust is a central event in many people's lives, but it also has become a metaphor for our century. There cannot be an end to speaking and writing about it. Besides, in Israel, everyone carries a biography deep inside him.Aharon Appelfeld
The holocaust is the solution to the Jews final questionAdolf Hitler
The Holocaust also shows us how a combination of events and attitudes can erode a society's democratic values.Tim Holden
As freedom-loving people across the globe hope for an end to tyranny, we will never forget the enormous suffering of the Holocaust.Bob Beauprez
There must be people who remember World War II and the Holocaust who can help us get out of this rut.Martin Scorsese
The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century.Dan Quayle
In Italy, the country where fascism was born, we have a particular relation with the Holocaust, but as a turning point in history it belongs to everybody in the world. It is a part of humanity.Roberto Benigni
Fortunately for whining snotface, the party itself goes with a bang. She enters looking every inch the cosseted flesh-waste she is, and her and her nauseating idiot scumbag friends celebrate into the night: dancing, shrieking, acting like pillocks, and generally making you feel like getting down on your knees and praying for a nuclear holocaust.Charlton

As younger generations and even older people become more wired - and wireless - they will demand greater convenience in how they get their products. As an example of things to come, Doug Stephens tested eBay Now, a service from the online retailer that allows somebody to order an item with a mobile device and have it delivered anywhere, whether it's a permanent address or — as Stephens found — a park bench. Stephens is currently working on a TV series about the future of retail.

I think men are very sensitive especially about the fact they have male fertility issues. My DH was quite nervous about previous appointment results and we didn't tell family & friends until 12 weeks.
Negative vibes are definitely not good for everyone esp. the baby. I think you should communicate him that. I have a feeling he will start feeling better as your pregnancy goes. To comfort, let him know that infertility isn't unusual and it's all around us and it's a blessing that you got pregnant with his sperm! I bought my DH a book called "Dude You will be a dad". He has been reading it here and there to get ready for the baby, so this might be a good idea?

My Cherry Blossom baby
One thing I did to help include my DH in the early stages is I picked up a daily pregnancy calendar (this one: http://www.amazon.com/Countdown-My-Birth-account-babys/dp/0684049678/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349188942&sr=8-1&keywords=countdown+to+pregnancy+calendar). I ordered this after we saw the babies' heartbeats for the first time.
Every day it has a post talking about what is happening with the baby's development right then. He reads it to me every day when we wake up. He also has taken to writing little notes on the days of our appointments, like HB and other stuff. We are both still cautious, but I think it has really gotten him into the spirit since he can't see or feel anything on a daily basis. Good Luck!
My DH was very nervous for the first 12 weeks. He didn't want to tell anyone. I think it is harder for a guy to process the idea of being a father. The responsibilities that come with it is scary. I know my DH didn?t really get excited until my stomach grew enough that he could see that I was really pregnant. Like my DH said until he can feel it and touch it he can?t really connect with it.
What I did for my DH is I bought a picture frame that says ?No one loves me like my daddy? and put an ultrasound photo in it. He shows it to everyone that comes over :-)

Jenson Button says his first pole position since Monaco 2009 feels almost as good as winning a grand prix.
Qualifying has been Button's shortfall since joining McLaren with the Brit failing to shine on Saturday afternoons.
However, that changed this weekend in Belgium when the Brit posted a 1:47.573 to take his first pole position since his Championship-winning season with Brawn GP.
"It's been quite a long time since I got my last pole position - it was back in 2009 Monaco I think - so it's pretty emotional," the 32-year-old said.
"Sunday's have been good for the past couple of years but Saturdays have not gone perfectly you could say.
"A great qualifying session and it's so important to come back after just a long break with a good result on Saturday.
"I know the race is tomorrow but this is close to winning a grand prix for me because it's been so long."
Asked as to what made the difference between this Saturday afternoon and those gone by, Button said: "If I knew it would make everything great!
"But just got the balance right this morning. The car's been working well all day.
"Limited running we've all had but every run we've done has been reasonably good and we've just tickled it, especially through qualifying, and the balance is to my liking.
"I have a style that's quite difficult to find a car that works for me in qualifying but when it does we can get pole position."
The McLaren driver is now eager to turn Saturday's P1 into a victory on Sunday admitting that the 25 points are "important" if he wants to stay in the title fight.
"A lot of people ask me if I am still driving for Championship," Button said.
"It is a long shot. I am 80 points behind Fernando (Alonso), so I need to be on podium and finish ahead of him every race.
"It is not easy, but this is a good start.
"But a win is important tomorrow to fight for the Championship."

MOBILE COUNTY, Ala. (WALA) – The hunting has begun in the deltas of Mobile Bay. Alligator hunting, that is.
The Alabama alligator hunting season will be held August 14 – 17 and August 21 – 24 in the Mobile-Tensaw Delta and west central Alabama. Hunts in southeast Alabama will be held August 8 – 24.
Alligator hunting began in Alabama in 2006. Since then, 589 alligators have been killed. In 2010, the largest alligator killed to date was 13′ 4″ and weighed a large 742 pounds.
Alabama conservation officer Kevin Hill and his partner Bradley Simpson took FOX10 News out for a look at the alligators in the delta. Officer Hill told FOX10 News the reason hunting alligators at night is better is because to the naked eye, during the daylight hours, you cannot spot an alligator on the horizon as well as you can at night with a light shinning on them.
More of the smaller alligators can be found in lower-lying areas – more grassy areas to be exact. The larger alligators will be found in the deeper parts of the water or river.
This year, there is no limit on what size alligator you can catch. One-hundred and fifty tags were given out to those who wanted to hunt. The drawing was random.
However, you don't have to have a tag to…tag along. As long as someone in the boat has a tag, you can go with them as long as you have a valid hunting license.

These protocols are designed to help you decide which products would be best to use for multiple myeloma. Do not feel obliged to follow the protocols exactly as given -- many people have beaten cancer using just one or two of these supplements. They are all top cancer killers -- even the cancer fighting supplements in the second or third groups listed below test much stronger than the usual supplements being used to fight cancer.
The best minimum to take is all the Vital supplements suggested in the protocol below appropriate for you. The protocols take into account the amount of cancer, whether avoiding swelling and inflammation is an issue, and the synergistic way in which the products work together.
If you are using just one or two supplements, and the endometrial cancer is going away, then you are taking the right amount. If it is reproducing faster than it is being killed, and is growing, you need to increase the number of supplements you are using, or their dosage. So it is certainly possible to start out with just one or two of whatever supplement you want to use, no matter if they are in the second or third group in the protocols. Just be sure to hit the cancer harder if it is not getting better in a few months.
The list is divided up based on three descending levels of importance.
- Vital (crucial must do's -- the most valuable supplements to use)
- Important (add on if at all possible)
- Very good to add on if you can
Depending on the amount of cancer and your overall health...
- Expect most, if not all, of the cancer to be gone in three to five months if using all the supplements listed as Vital.
- If you add on all the supplements listed as Important, expect most, if not all, of the cancer to be gone in two to four months. There will be up to a 20% greater likelihood of success for very advanced cancers where health is compromised and there is a danger of dying -- as more needs to be done. And it may take a longer time to beat the cancer in this case. (If you have an early stage cancer, or are still in good shape without serious complications with an advanced stage 4 cancer, the likelihood of beating the cancer with just the Vital supplements is already very high.
- If the supplements listed as Very Good are also used, the likelihood of success, if you have a very advanced cancer, increases -- maybe as much as 15% as you are supporting the body even more fully.
With the elixirs, (BLA, PrugX, Glutam, Reveal, Dtosin, GlioX, Tumorin, CSE, RAD, PrugX Enhancer, BLA Enhancer and others) -- a 1 bottle a month dosage is approximately 25% less effective than the 4 per month dosage and only 20% less effective than the 3 bottle per month dosage.
Since these elixirs as a group are very powerful cancer fighters, if funds are tight, it is better to reduce dosage to using 1 bottle a month and get more of the various elixirs -- rather than getting 3 or 4 bottles a month of only 2 or 3 of them.
This is more powerful because using all the elixirs will fight the cancer in a greater number of ways.
Of course, it is best to do the optimal suggested dosages given below if possible.

If chemo is being used, you need additional liver support.
- Add on Nymsar if using Immune Force. Otherwise use Liver Balance Plus instead, 3 to 4 bottles a month.
- Use Immune Force Nymsar and Liver Balance Plus if you are in catabolic wasting, 3 bottles a month, along with Fulvitea, 2 containers a month.
- For the kidneys, add on Kidney Rescue, 3 bottles for 1 month's supply.
Once your multiple myeloma is gone, to prevent it from returning, you will need to use a cancer prevention protocol for at least a year. This will give your body time to heal itself, and improve your cellular environment so that your cells cannot turn cancerous.
For cancer prevention:
Use one bottle of Immune Force per month for at least 6 months to boost the immune system and heal your body.
Add on two bottles of Telomerase per month for 6 months to stimulate regeneration, repair and anti-aging. It will also stop any cancer cells that may be remaining in your body from replicating.
Then continue with one bottle of each for at least 6 more months. Ongoing is best.
To be more vigorous in your cancer prevention, also use two pHenOH per month for the first 3 to 6 months. It will also help to oxygenate and detoxify cells -- and kill cancer cells.

Beefmaster Cattle Offer Many Reasons To Be A Breed Of Choice.
Beefmaster cattle are a combination of Zebu, Hereford and Shorthorn that has been in existence since the early 1950's. They are a unique combination of Bos Indicus and Bos Taurus breeding that allows them to excel in any environment. Today they can found from Wisconsin to Texas, California to Florida and every place in between. The Beefmaster Foundation herd excels in the cold environment of Colorado and about 50% of the registered animals are found in the hot, humid environment of Texas and Florida. The three breed combination has built in heterosis that will further be enhanced in mating them with the industries commercial cattle population.
Is Moldy Silage Syndrome Affecting Your Herd?
The 2011 harvest season is here, and many cattle producers are now reaching the bottom of last year's crop in their silos or pits, however they may want to consider the quality of that silage before they feed their herds. While last year's harvest appeared to be cleaner than the previous year's crop, some producers are finding that after it was all packed and stored away, it wasn't as safe as it seemed.
No Forage Left
At just under 119 million tons, the 2011 U.S. hay crop is forecast by USDA to be the shortest since the drought year of 1988. Yields are down from 2010, but by less than 6%; it's kind of like the man with one foot in boiling water and the other in a bucket of ice - while the Southeast Plains crop has been devastated by what Texas State Climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon calls the "most severe one-year drought on record," there's a lot of hay in places where it's typically harder to grow. The problem is getting it where it's needed.
Texas Ranger, Texas Rancher, The Passion of Nolan Ryan
Baseball fans see Nolan Ryan in the owner's box at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. They know him as part owner, president and chief executive officer of the Texas Rangers. Or perhaps the legions of fans see Ryan in their cherished memories - the seven no-hitters, the 27 major league seasons, the all-time strikeout record, or the 324 wins. Ryan understands that people excel in those things for which they have great passion. When he explains his success in baseball or ranching, he uses that one word more than any other.

The art of saving
Editor's Note: This is part one of a three-part series.
In the early 90s, while searching for myself, I came across a book "The Essence of Success" by Earl Nightingale. What makes this period of my life so interesting is the fact that I no longer wanted to be who I was or to be in the situation I found myself living.
I was 26 years old and determined to change my life for the better. My money was funny, and my change was strange. I never met a dollar that I liked, for it seemed as soon as money came into my pocket, it went out even faster.
I recall going to the bank one day, asking to get a $400 loan against the title of my car that was already paid off. The branch manager met with me that day. She had taken the liberty of pulling up my account and said she noticed that I had made over $36,000 in deposits and withdrawals that year (and the year wasn't over yet).
However, she noticed that I had never set up a savings account. We discussed that without a savings account, one of the primary principles of money management had not been established. She said I was typical of most people who start a new job. I was making good money but didn't really have anything to show for it.
Over the last 30 years, I've noticed several reoccurring principles that I have followed throughout my life. I will share with you these principles that brought me from financial lack to where I am today.
I have traveled the road of "less than enough," crossed the bridge of "just enough," and now I'm happy to say I live on the mountain of "more than enough." If you incorporate just one of these principles into your life and truly live it, not just with academic understanding but through the pursuit of helping yourself while helping others, you will indeed understand the bounty of "more than enough."
- Savings Principle #1: It's not how much you make, it's how much you keep. I've often been asked why ELE Wealth Management specializes in retirement. The simple answer is most people retire once in their lifetime, and the monies associated with retirement have to last the rest of a person's life, which is always an unknown. So, we have to plan for the future while still supporting the client's desire to live in the present.
- Savings Principle #2: 10 percent to charity, 10 percent to you (paradigm shift). You don't go back to the charity and ask for that which you've given, so you shouldn't go back to your account and take that which you've deposited. I am referring to a legacy account. It can be used for leverage (to borrow against), but the funds in this account can not be compromised.
Just think how much would be in your legacy account today if you had saved 10 percent of everything you earned. Once you have conquered your ability to give to a charity and yourself, it becomes contagious.

Brief Personal History
I started SS at the end of Feb this year after a 6 month run of self made BBing splits, convinced that it would be a magic pill that would take me to the land of strength. Forget starting weights. These are my actual strength gains.
My starting actual 5RMs were 155lbs squat, 175lbs bench, 115lb press and 247.5lbs deadlift. Nearly 9 months later, after also doing The Greyskull LP, I was much stronger. On my last day of LP, I was squatting 275lbs, benching 205lbs, pressing 155lbs and deadlifting 325lbs, all for 5 reps. Nothing special for someone finishing SS or GSLP. Pretty average, but not too shabby, considering I had no coaching.
I may have taken a while to finish too, but the point is, I got there. I exhausted my linear gains and I believe that qualifies me to speak on the method of training that is Linear Progression. I learnt that neither program was a magic pill. THERE IS NO MAGIC PILL
So What Is The Point Of This Thread And Who Is It For?
As you can see, I spent an excessive amount of time on LP. I made a lot of mistakes.
Which means I worked out a few things along the way.
This thread is of educational value to you if you are considering starting, or have recently started, a linear progression strength program ie. The Starting Strength program, The Greyskull LP or any other good beginner LP.
Im hoping this thread can be made up of contributions from experienced LP trainees who can dispense theyre advice for the less experienced to benefit from!
So let's get to the meat and potatoes...
Things I Learnt The Hard Way So You Don't Have To
First off, you need to make sure you've read the book on your chosen program. Seriously.
With that done, you'd think that the road ahead would be easy, right? Wrong.
The problem with text books, is they're all a bit... textbook. If only there was something a bit more... anecdotal. Well, here it is. If I'd read a few threads like this one I'm writing now, I think I could've saved myself a few months. Im not claiming this to be the definitive thread on LP. It is merely a piece in the puzzle of how a lifter can approach and learn from novice programming. If you have experienced the grind that is LP, I urge you to contribute your advice and the lessons you learnt. Its not for the fainthearted, and if a novice lifter can read this and find his or her way towards strength, that would be a blessing for all involved.
Here's what I learnt...
Learn to squat YOUR WAY - Not only do you need to squat with correct form, you need to squat with suitable form. This means form that makes you feel strong and comfortable. In fact, this goes for every lift. You need to experiment with grips, hand and foot placements, setups, gaze and any other variable you care to name.
When you encounter an issue with form on a lift, the best thing you can do is film your sets for personal viewing, and also post vids in the exercise forum for critique. Some of the advice will be confusing as its common to be overloaded with things to fix. Focus on one or two things at a time and take it one step at a time. You need to feel the alterations one by one, not revamp everything and start from scratch. See the exercise section sticky on form check vids to get the best quality feedback.
BELT UP Sooner Rather Than Later - I see it all the time. People don't want to wear a belt until they're squatting at least 2 and a half plates. They don't get kitted out, they stall around the 2 plate mark a couple of times, then they bail on the program. All because they think they're cheating with a belt.
Honestly, you need to drop this attitude. This was nearly me. I finally gave in to getting a belt and I haven't looked back since. And guess what? I can now squat and deadlift more than ever beltless. Make the switch sooner rather than later. If youre worried about your core, do some back extensions on a day youre not deadlifting. That's what I did.
IMO, the ideal time to start wearing a belt is once your back starts to round on reps at max effort, but your form is good enough to maintain a natural arch throughout a lift just below max effort.
For example, you'll get to a point with your deadlift where you'll start worrying about your back. Unless you're lucky you'll either do yourself some damage, or you'll stay too far within your limits to progress. Belt up and you'll see another month of progress, minimum. Just do it already. Theres a good sticky in the exercise section on belts.
While Were On KIT Id recommend buying some good footwear. I have a pair of heeled Do Wins that I squat in and I very rarely come up on my toes now. If youre squatting in trainers, you should give barefoot a shot until you can afford proper footwear. Compressible soles are a nightmare for squatting. Try deadlifting in either deadlift slippers or barefoot. I deadlift barefoot and probably always will.
Also, buy some chalk. Itll give you better grip on deads, itll stop the bar slipping around on your back during squats and it can also stop the bar spinning in your hands on squats too. It costs next to nothing so its the best value investment youll make.
I know nothing about gear apart from that its almost worthless for increasing raw strength. Personally I wouldnt go near it unless I was planning to enter a geared meet in the near future. Its not something a novice trainee should concern themselves with.
MICROLOAD your pressing I personally could not have made as much progress on my pressing without getting microplates. It enabled me to increase the weight on bench and press by 2.5lbs a session, making progression much more sustainable. Yes, its another expense, but its not much. If you cant sacrifice 2 hours worth of wages to give your pressing a better chance of progress then how serious are you about your training?
DIET From my experience, and as a result of the advice I got on these forums when I was stuck, the best way to drive progress other than getting your form pat down, is to eat in a decent calorie surplus. Youre gonna put on a little fat, but youre gonna get strong. Just dont go overboard. Monitor your weight gain, and keep it in check, but make sure you are gaining weight.Eat and make progress now. Take advantage of linear gains. You will never see them again. Eat and claim them now, and lose some weight after if you need to.
Nearly all the most successful LP trainees have taken this approach, but there are still those who disagree. If youre already overweight, Ill admit Im not sure of how you should approach it. Personally, I would set about losing weight and getting body fat at least to mid teens before starting this, whether thats with a crash diet, p90x or whatever. Taking charge of your diet and losing fat now will give you a longer bulk when you start on LP and would increase the potential of the program IMO. Aim to gain weight at a rate of 1-2lb a week to take care of your nutritional contribution to the program. Falling short of this is slightly less harmful than overdoing it. Try not to overdo it. See the nutrition forum stickies for more info.
SUPPLEMENTS I take creatine for increased training performance, a strong coffee pre workout for energy if Im tired, protein powder as a flavor enhancer in my morning shake, ZMA for testosterone replenishment while sleeping, a multi vit for general health and fish oil for joints and bodily functions. I wouldnt even use protein powder if I could flavor my own shakes with something cheaper. Food > supplements.

Midland, TX: What to do about rising rental real estate prices?
The oil boom and increasing population have collective impact on the retail, restaurants, personal services and real estate industry. Whether it is rent rental real estate or for acquisition the prices are going up as more people are coming to Midland to join oil extraction and purification industry. The average residential rental price has increased from $880 to $1100 which is a huge increase for the expats. The average price of a home in Midland County has become more than $235,000 in past few years.
According to Brian Murphy who quit his job to join Midland oil industry and came to Midland:
"I quit my office job in Oklahoma City and came to Midland to take a highly-paid job in the oil fields. Like hundreds and thousands of oil field workers I choose to live in RV parks. "I don't think it was that bad till I got here because I have to pay $400 a month for the right just to park the trailer where I can have access to water and sewer. Still, that's better than other housing option like hiring hotel room, apartment or a rental home." Brain Murphy's experience tells you the story that RV Parks have become the most economic option to stay in Midland for the vocational staff coming from across US. 1270 RV Park Midland and 2134 Midland RV Park (Midland RV Campground) are the top two RV parks to stay nearest to the city.
