Oct. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Ghana's cedi gained for a third day as the central said it is considering regular dollar auctions as part of measures to support the currency of the world's second- biggest cocoa producer.
The cedi appreciated as much as 0.3 percent to 1.6240 per dollar and was unchanged from yesterday's close at 1.6295 by 4:11 p.m. in Accra, the capital, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. It has weakened 8.8 percent against the U.S. currency this year.
The Bank of Ghana is looking at "options" including auctions, selling dollars directly to currency traders and the use of "moral suasion" to compel interbank traders to quote competitive rates, Adams Nyinaku, head of treasury, said in an interview in Accra today. Traders "will be cautious of the rate they tender in, else the dollars will go to somebody else," he said.
The bank will look to earnings from gold, cocoa and oil, the country's three main exports, to build foreign reserves if it decides on the regular currency sales. "We can also buy foreign loans received by the government, such as the $3 billion loan being sourced from China Development Bank," Nyinaku said.
The West Africa nation's gold exports for the nine months through Sept. 30 were worth $3.7 billion, cocoa totaled $1.7 billion and oil exports were $1.9 billion, the central bank said today. Gross international reserves stood at $5.3 billion as of Oct. 13, enough to cover 3.8 months of imports, central bank Governor Kwesi Amissah-Arthur said today.
The plan "should be beneficial for the market in that it creates more transparency in how much they sell and what the actual demand in the market is," Lourens Harmse, a currency trader at Absa Capital Ltd., said in an e-mailed comment today.

Nov. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Ethanol futures tumbled to the lowest price in more than eight months on signs of lower blending demand.
Futures dropped two days after an Energy Department report showed stockpiles climbed to a 12-week high last week while production of conventional gasoline blended with ethanol fell 1.4 percent to 5.13 million barrels a day.
"You're seeing the blender back away from ethanol," said Jerrod Kitt, an analyst at the Linn Group in Chicago. "They're not as aggressive. The really firm physical markets are starting to scare away domestic demand."
Denatured ethanol for December delivery sank 6.3 cents, or 2.5 percent, to $2.434 a gallon on the Chicago Board of Trade, the lowest price since March 17. The futures have climbed 2.4 percent this year.
Ethanol's 1.49-cent discount to gasoline has tempered refiner interest in using more of the fuel to capture the spread between the two, in addition to the 45-cent tax credit provided for each gallon of the biofuel mixed into the petroleum product, Kitt said.
The alternative fuel has traded at a 22-cent discount to gasoline on average in the past year.
Gasoline for December delivery lost 6.88 cents, or 2.7 percent, to $2.4489 a gallon. Gasoline declined 1.2 percent this week, the sixth consecutive weekly loss. The contract includes reformulated gasoline, which is made to be blended with ethanol before delivery to filling stations.

When you look at as many paparazzi photos as I do, looking for new, interesting shots to post, you start to notice trends. Amy Winehouse always wore ballet flats, for example. Paris Hilton always poses like she has to pee. And, as I realized this morning, Kanye West is always whispering to girlfriend Kim Kardashian. What's so secretive that he often blocks his mouth with his hand, so paparazzi can't read his lips? I decided to imagine the possibilities….

Suitable from 6 months+
Order in the next 10 hours 58 minutes and select next working day for delivery to mainland UK on Friday
This award-winning highchair is designed to blend beautifully into your home and grow effortlessly with your baby. From chasing first finger foods to relaxing after a tiring day at school or work, the Noah provides the perfect support from 6 months to adulthood.
The award-winning Noah is made from solid wood in modern neutral design. The fresh white painted frame is accented with a natural finish on the adjustable seat, footrest, lift bar and feeding tray.
The footrest can be moved down the grooves as your baby grows and a 5-point harness keeps excited munchkins securely in their seat. Both the cosy padded seat and feeding tray are easily wiped clean and can be removed as your baby grows, allowing the chair to be brought up to the table so your little one can enjoy the fun of family mealtimes.
The lift bar bridges the gap between removing the feeding tray and using the highchair as a conventional chair, keeping your little one safe as well as making the chair easier to move about. Fully adaptable, the Noah goes on to provide a comfortable and sturdy chair to pull up to the table, whether for tea, homework or for you to enjoy a well earned sit down.

This is a great highchair. Just the right height for having baby at the dining table with you so they feel included in meals times even when not eating. It fits in lovely with all our furniture and we have had comments about how nice it is. Only one issue would be thd fastenings. You have to remove the wooden tummy bar to easily get baby in and out, and the harness slips on the shoulder straps no matter how tight due to the shape of the chair back. Could do with a hook or some sort of restraint on the back to hold it in place. Other than that though once baby is in, it is safe and stable. Baby loves sitting in it just to play. The removable tray is a bonus too. Easy to put on and take off.
We got the highchair because we liked the look, and would fit in great with our kitchen. We've had it just over a month and think it's great! The removable table makes it very easy to wipe clean (no nooks or crannies for food to get stuck), and then tucks under our dining table. When he's older we can just pull it up to the dining table. Seat is also wipe clean. No problems getting him in or out, and not needed to use the harness (yet), no chance of escaping! I didn't put it together and we haven't had to adjust it yet so can't comment on those features. Overall, v happy with our choice.
The most important benefit of this chair is the ability to adjust the height and depth of the seat as well as the height of the footplate to enable the baby to sit upright and not slouch. The second great positive is that i don't have to lift my baby in and out of the chair above the table. Because both the table and the waist bar are removable, i can just put the baby in and out much more easily. The third benefit is the removable waist bar which functions as a quick and effective way to secure the baby in position, even before doing the straps up. It has a small footprint and it looks very good, with a great finish. On the other side, the straps are a bit fiddly to do up and the buckle seems rather plasticky. The chair is neither particularly difficult nor particularly easy to clean. The white cushion does get dirty, but i just quickly wash it on the spot with the kitchen sponge and it cleans very easily. Also, getting the table in place after having put the baby in can be a bit tricky, particularly if you have a restless baby who keeps flailing his arms around. Overall, i am very happy with the purchace, and i would recommend it.
Comes with removable washable seat pad and 5-point harness included so good value compared to other similar products. Restraining bar is easy to open for getting child in & out. Tray excellent design- can be removed with child in seat/put on with child in seat. We use without tray to sit up at the table and with tray in the kitchen. Baby seems very comfy in it. Very stable so far.
Great highchair, feels so well built and sturdy and looks great in our kitchen. Height not massively adjustable, but fits under out dining table so no issue for us.

Classic Afternoon Teas to Enjoy at Top Hotels
BOSTON ( MainStreet) -- You don't have to be a British monarch or a Mad Hatter to enjoy a good tea party these days.
That's because more and more five-star U.S. hotels are adding British-style afternoon tea service to their offerings, providing patrons with an aristocratic snack between lunch and supper.
|Posh American hotels offer delightful upscale versions of afternoon tea, including some -- like The Plaza's "Eloise," with its colorful shortbread pastries -- just for kids.
"Afternoon tea service is a nice amenity for hotel guests, but it's just as popular with locals looking for a leisurely but sophisticated setting for gathering with friends and business associates," says Bruce Wallin, who oversees travel coverage for the upscale-lifestyles magazine The Robb Report.
Long an English tradition, afternoon tea generally features finger sandwiches, pastries, scones, clotted cream and, of course, tea.But many posh American hotels have begun offering upscale versions of the afternoon snack, with menus featuring salmon-and-caviar sandwiches, expensive champagne and rare teas from exotic locations. Five-star hotels also typically hold their afternoon teas in well-appointed lobbies or outdoor verandas, with string quartets or other live music adding to the upper-crust feel. "The three keys to afternoon tea are setting, service and selection," Wallin says. "The best examples evoke the Old World, with a classical atmosphere and a range of teas from around the world." Here's a look at four hotels with great afternoon tea service, from New York's Plaza Hotel on the East Coast to Honolulu's Halekulani Waikiki Parc Hotel in the Pacific: The Plaza Hotel, New York
Price: $48-$78 per person ($28-$58 for kids under 12)
The Plaza offers perhaps America's best-known afternoon tea, held every day in the hotel's recently renovated $6.5 million Palm Court restaurant. A scene in F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel The Great Gatsby involves two characters enjoying afternoon tea at the Palm Court. The Eloise series of children's books -- about a fictional 6-year-old girl who supposedly lives at the Plaza -- also helped make the Palm Court's tea service famous. These days, the restaurant offers four prix-fixe tea menus: "The Classic," "The New Yorker," "The Eloise Tea" and "The Chocolate Tea." The $48 Classic menu features pastries, warm scones and a selection of tea sandwiches ranging from truffled quail-egg salad to Maine lobster with sturgeon caviar.

General Info
Waiting for the 5:15
I am hopelessly in love to the most wonderful man, all I have to do is think of him and my day is so much brighter. We have been together since 2000 and each day has been a little bit brighter, a little bit sweeter with him by my side. We are an inter-racial couple accepted by our families. I enjoy many social activities, sports, the great outdoors & family. Sorry I do not have a picture posted, my bf has asked that I wouldn"t and I accept his reasons for not doing so. We have been discussing making a video, so who knows?

Most music from Elton John and the 70"s. I enjoy just about all types of music. I love the Sirius Network, just wished they didn"t talk as much. I"m a sucker for Christmas Carrols, though I hate when they start before Halloween, lol. Frank Sinatra rocks. Hip Hop & Rap I enjoy even when I"m not sure what their talking about.

Cyber Criminals Drain $45 Million From ATMs Around The World
Originally published on Mon May 13, 2013 1:13 pm
All right, prosecutors are calling it the biggest bank heist in New York City since the 1970s. They say a gang of cybercriminals drained $45 million from ATMs around the world.
Here's NPR's Joel Rose.
JOEL ROSE, BYLINE: United States Attorney Loretta Lynch says the eight men charged in New York were able to withdraw $2.8 million in cash in just one day, in February.
LORETTA LYNCH: This was a 21st century bank heist. But instead of guns and masks, this cybercrime organization used laptops and malware.
ROSE: Lynch says the hackers were able to infiltrate bank computers and remove the limits from prepaid ATM cards. Then it was up to crews on the ground in more than 20 countries, to do the rest.
LYNCH: They become a virtual, criminal flash mob, going from machine to machine, drawing as much money as they can before these accounts are shut down.
ROSE: The defendants are all young men from Yonkers, N.Y., who were apparently less than discreet with their sudden windfall. One allegedly snapped a cellphone photo of himself and a fellow defendant next to $40,000 in cash. Seven of the men are under arrest; the eighth was reportedly killed last month in the Dominican Republic.
Prosecutors declined to comment on who organized the international heist, or where in the world the hackers may be located, citing an ongoing investigation.

But while anyone can tell a story that resembles a dream, it's the rare artist, like this one, who can make us feel that we are dreaming it ourselves." —The New York Times Book Review The year is 1984 and the city is Tokyo.A young woman named Aomame follows a taxi driver's enigmatic suggestion and begins to notice puzzling discrepancies in the world around her. She has entered, she realizes, a parallel existence, which she calls 1Q84 —"Q is for 'question mark.' A world that bears a question." Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting project. He becomes so wrapped up with the work and its unusual author that, soon, his previously placid life begins to come unraveled. As Aomame's and Tengo's narratives converge over the course of this single year, we learn of the profound and tangled connections that bind them ever closer: a beautiful, dyslexic teenage girl with a unique vision; a mysterious religious cult that instigated a shoot-out with the metropolitan police; a reclusive, wealthy dowager who runs a shelter for abused women; a hideously ugly private investigator; a mild-mannered yet ruthlessly efficient bodyguard; and a peculiarly insistent television-fee collector.A love story, a mystery, a fantasy, a novel of self-discovery, a dystopia to rival George Orwell's—1Q84 is Haruki Murakami's most ambitious undertaking yet: an instant best seller in his native Japan, and a tremendous feat of imagination from one of our most revered contemporary writers. Amazon.com ReviewAmazon Best Books of the Month, October 2011: The year is 1984, but not for long. Aomame, on her way to meet a client--the gravid implications of which only come clear later--sits in a taxi, stuck in traffic. On a lark, she takes the driver's advice, bolts from the cab, walks onto the elevated Tokyo expressway, descends an emergency ladder to the street below, and enters a strange new world. In parallel, a math teacher and aspiring novelist named Tengo gets an interesting offer. His editor has come upon an entry for a young writer's literary prize, a story that, despite its obvious stylistic drawbacks, strikes a deeply moving chord with those who've read it. Its author is a mysterious 17-year-old, and the editor proposes that Tengo quietly rewrite the story for the final round of the competition. So begins Haruki Murakami's magnus opus, an epic of staggering proportions. As the tale progresses, it folds in a deliciously intriguing cast of characters: a physically repulsive private investigator, a wealthy dowager with a morally ambiguous mission, her impeccably resourceful bodyguard, the leader of a somewhat obscure and possibly violent religious organization, a band of otherworldly "Little People," a door-to-door fee collector seemingly immune to the limits of space and time, and the beautiful Fuka-Eri: dyslexic, unfathomable, and scarred. Aomame names her new world "1Q84" in honor of its mystery: "Q is for 'question mark.' A world that bears a question.'" Weaving through it, central motifs--the moon, Janáček's Sinfonietta, George Orwell's 1984--acquire powerful resonance, and Aomame and Tengo's paths take on a conjoined life of their own, dancing with a protracted elegance that requires nearly 1,000 pages to reach its crowning denouement. 1Q84 was a runaway best seller in its native Japan, but it's more instructive to frame the book's importance in other ways. For one, it's hard not to compare it to James Joyce's Ulysses. Both enormous novels mark their respective author's most ambitious undertaking by far, occupy an artificially discrete unit of time (Ulysses, one day; 1Q84, one year), and can be read as having a narrative structure that evinces an almost quantum-mechanical relationship to reality, which is not to say that either author intended this. More to the point, the English translation of 1Q84--easily the grandest work of world literature since Roberto Bolaño's 2666--represents a monstrous literary event. Now would somebody please award Murakami his Nobel Prize? --Jason Kirk CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

Spokane County's jobless rate in August dropped to 7.2 percent, the lowest in 2013, the state Employment Security Department said.
The number is not seasonally adjusted.
In August a year ago, the jobless rate was 8.6 percent. The net job gain from 12 months ago, the ESD reported, was 6,700. The leading sectors were health, construction, leisure-hospitality, warehousing and transport, and food and drink services.
A full update on the latest numbers will be on Spokesman.com later Tuesday.
Washington State will release Spokane County jobless numbers for April tomorrow, May 21.
To help us get in the mood, let's look at some national statistics and compare who's got the most and the least.
Washington, in the March numbers was the state with the 13th-most number of people listed as unemployed.
The number back in March was 254,024, according to the State Unemployment database at a site called Department of Numbers.com.
The six states with the largest numbers unemployed in order were: California, Texas, New York, Florida, Illinois and Pennsylvania.
The states with three lowest totals of workers out a job were North Dakota, Vermont, Wyoming.
In terms of jobless percentage, the worst five are: Nevada, Illinois. Mississippi, California, North Carolina.
For lowest rate, the five are: North Dakota, Nebraska, Vermont, South Dakota, Iowa.
Spokane's YMCA is one of seven Washington state chapters that are sharing a combined $140,000 provided through The Walmart Foundation and its Washington State Giving Council for hunger relief.
The contributions were recently announced by Walmart, the nation's largest retailer. The money for the Y chapters are part of an ongoing campaign by the Arkansas-based company to support summer feeding programs in 300 urban and rural communities.
In case you only think negative things about Walmart, consider this: According to the Chronicle of Philanthropy, Walmart easily exceeds all other U.S. corporations in charitable giving.
According to its most recent list, Walmart tops the list with more than $342 million in giving in 2011. Second was Goldman Sachs with $337 million.
The Washington grants stem from research and studies suggesting that lower-income families often find themselves not providing their children nutritionally complete meals during warmer weather.
Across the entire state, Walmart this year is providing $172,000 to the Y chapters and other groups through its Summer Feeding initiative and another $125,000 through the Walmart State Giving Council, a separate state-specific foundation
Other YMCA chapters receiving grants are in Auburn, Bothell, Everett, Seattle, Tacoma and Shoreline.
They will share a combined $115,000 Walmart Foundation grant and $25,000 State Giving Council grants to support youth lunch programs.
We found this at the Walmart.com charitable contributions link:
Walmart and the Walmart Foundation are in the second year of a $2 billion cash and in-kind hunger relief campaign that extends through 2015. The Foundation's contributions are strategically aimed at ending hunger for the 1 in 6 Americans that do not know where their next meal is coming from. As such, the Foundation seeks to fund initiatives that integrate hunger relief into our four focus areas (hunger/wellness; education; workforce development; environmental sustainability).
Another website devoted to finding vacation rentals just added a bunch of listings in Washington state.
Dwellable just this week brought online listings for more than 1,000 Washington state rentals.
And to be honest, not that many are in Spokane, at least as of June 26. We searched and found three vacation rentals.
But it's going to grow, according to Dwellable CEO Brenda Spoonmore. The company was launched in Seattle in 2011 but only this week added Washington properties. Spoonmore said she has Eastern Washington ties, having family in Dayton and Pullman.
Plans are to add Idaho listings some time later. "By the end of year, we will cover all of the U.S. plus some additional areas in North America (eg, Whistler)," she wrote in an email.
Spoonemore is co-founder with another partner who also co-founded popular food mashup Urbanspoon.com.
"Not coincidentally, there are some similarities between the Urbanspoon approach to restaurants and ours to vacation rentals," Spoonmore added.
We hear that the state of Washington has gone from one craft distillery a few years ago (based in Spokane), to more than 20 in production today. See the post below for the connection.
We'll take on the challenge of verifying that number and trying to list the full names of those craft distillers.
Anyone having names or suggestions, leave them here as a comment. Thanks.
Washington's Department of Revenue said in a news release Monday that it has vastly improved the online tool retailers use to find sales tax rates across the state.
The state charges sales tax based on where a product is delivered, not where it originated. The new web tool, found at http://dor.wa.gov, offers several ways to look up location codes and tax rates. Those include address searches, improved maps, and latitude and longitude, according to the news release.
Washington retailers, you be the judge.
The Natural Resources Defense Council has a new list, based on three years of research, showing the 10 states working hardest to cut dependence on oil, and the 10 states most vulnerable to gas price spikes.
To read the executive summary on the method to the rankings, go to the continuation of this entry (click on continue reading below).
Washington is No. 6 on the list of working hardest to get free of oil dependence. The ranking is:
1) California
2) Oregon
3) Massachusetts
4) New York
5) Connecticut
6) Washington
7) Pennsylvania
8) Minnesota
9) New Mexico
10) Hawaii
The states most susceptible, according to the survey:
50) Alaska
49) Wyoming
48) Nebraska
47) Ohio
46) West Virginia
45) Oklahoma
44) Mississippi
43) Kansas
42) Alabama

PJC Radiology Student Named International Scholar
PARIS - Rafael Gonzales, a Paris Junior College radiology technology student from Wolfe City, has been accepted to the 2012 International Scholar Laureate Program (ISLP) Delegation on Medicine.
As part of the program, he is enrolled in a cultural extension trip to Australia, where he will tour hospital and medical facilities. He was chosen for his leadership skills and outstanding academics.
"I'm excited," said Gonzales. "This is cool. I'm planning to go into either CT scan or MRI diagnostic imaging."
ISLP is intended to provide global networking opportunities and insight into career fields. The program is partnered with George Mason University to offer college credit, as well.
"I think it's an honor for our entire program that one of our students has been offered the opportunity to participate," said PJC Radiology Technology Program Coordinator Karen Powers. "It's my understanding they will get to tour the facilities all the way from administration to all the departments."
Gonzales is a member of the American Society of Radiologic Technologists and Phi Theta Kappa, the two-year college honor society. He leaves for Australia in June.

A community remembers a popular ten year old girl that died too soon.
A candlelight vigil was held at Warfield Elementary to celebrate the life of Destiny Brewer.
She died in June after a head on collision involving an allegedly impaired driver.
Family and friends came together to remember Destiny with prayer, performances and a candle light vigil.
"It's a remembrance for the family, not another funeral, but also an opportunity for students to grieve and share memories to remember destiny and everything she did in her life. We wanted something for the students before they went back to school," Michael Marcum said.
The vigil was also to raise awareness about Destiny's Hope, a petition to the change the DUI laws and make them stricter.
Some money was also raised for Destiny's Hope.
Everyone wore their shirts with pride.
"With all of the community involved, it really got the word out. I think this brings everyone together to show how great she was," Cassie Robinson said.
Many say it was a night they will always remember.

45 weeks on JUDDD -- Frustrated
This week I weighed in at 250 lbs for a gain of 1 lb this week, a total of 40 lbs lost, 36 of them on JUDDD.
So this week I finally got down to business. I got right back into rotations. I ate nothing but potatoes so that I wouldn't go over my calorie limits on my up days. And this was my reward.
It's like the anti-JUDDD magic. And now I'm back at 250 again.
Low Points
This morning. Melt down at the scale. Didn't wanna report in.
High Points
Perspective. There have been many moments on this diet where I've totally messed up, fallen into a box of cookies, and still lost weight. I guess it only makes sense in terms of karmic balance that good behavior will sometimes not see the results I want.
I don't know what to say, but hopefully next week you will see a huge reward for all of your hard work.
Oh steph, that's so frustrating! But I agree, it's probably going to take a week for your hard work to show up on the scale. Just hang in there!
So sorry you have been cheated this week. Stay the course and the rewards will come eventually. Not nearly as fast or as linear as we would all like but they WILL come!!
I'll be the one to come in and be boring. :)
Remember, now would be the time of year (in our hemisphere) when additional liquids are needed to avoid the start of dehydration. So make sure lack of water isn't in your way, holding you back from releasing some weight.
(boring, boring, boring)
Stalls take time. They run their silly little courses. They are mischievous.
Sorry about the meltdown. :console: BTDT
I'm sorry to read about your frustration and I don't have any words of wisdom since I am fairly new at this. Looking forward to reading next week's update and the loss that is sure to come!
Also, potatoes don't work for everyone. I'm not sure if you meant you did potatoes ALL WEEK or not. I did one day--didn't gain, but have no desire to repeat that experiment. :D
Hi, Steph -- I am curious what your experience in the past has been with the potato hack? I am one of those people, as Keirasmom mentioned, for whom the potatoes just don't 'sit well'. Tends to be the folks with blood sugar issues, a lot of times -- it was only one day, I think I lost a fraction of a pound and felt an unholy combination of dizziness, barfing and passing-out for most of that day. So not worth it. I'm going to be boring too and say that I'm sure this is just your body adjusting -- keep at it, you will see losses, etc... I need to give myself my own advice since I, too, am a very slow loser. :(
Darn these stalls! They're so frustrating! I keep having to remind myself that when I lost almost 100 pounds over a decade ago, that I had a months-long stall at about the midpoint of my losses. Somehow, I kept at it (then it was LC) and eventually started losing again. I'm not sure how I kept so diligent back then. As much as it frustrates us, sometimes our body just takes over and tries to stabilize as it sees fit. I guess it knows best, but I wanna keep losing dammit!
I so feel your frustration. Hang in there, and it WILL happen for you. Throwing in the towel only means the scale numbers going back up. I hope you feel like I do - that is just NOT an option.
I suspect you're right. It works, but not always linearly. Just another hurdle for the heroine. You are inspiring, woman.:):heart:
Steph, JUDDD results are definitely weird rather than linear. You will get your reward - you've earned a visit from the Whoosh Fairy - but punctuality isn't her strong point.
Maybe potatoes won't do it for you - they didn't work for me. I'm concerned that you're depriving yourself on DDs and UDs - unless you're passionately fond of potatoes. There has to be an enjoyable way to win at this.
I hope the Whoosh Fairy gets on top of her schedule very soon.
I'm sorry you're frustrated.:console: Congrats on sticking with the PH though. I could not do more than one day, and it was a DD. I applaud those of you who give up UDs to do the PH. I'm sure you will see the (good) results of your clean eating on the scale soon.:high5:
The potato hack wasn't good for me either. I lost, but would rather have been dead by the end of the second day.
I'm dialing the whoosh fairy and sending her your way. :hugs:
Why can't it be linear?! :annoyed: It would be so nice to always understand exactly what is happening. For example, there is no explanation for what happened with LCG, but good to know that whatever it was went away (thanks for writing about that LCG! It was actually very encouraging to know that you had that stall for no reason and then the weight loss picked up again).
It's extremely frustrating Steph, but you've come so far, and there's more places yet to go, I know it. :up: Do not be freaked by the number. It's just a bounce, nothing more. On JUDDD, as long as you keep going, what goes up, must come down. :)

Murrysville, PA – At least 20-people, mostly students have been slashed and stabbed at the Franklin Regional High School here.
The bloody scenario played out for a solid five minutes before an unarmed, contract security guard along with a teacher finally overpowered the assailant, 16-year-old Alex Hribal. Police said Hribal was armed armed with two simple kitchen knives.
Some of the wounded students suffered very serious injuries. The security guard was himself cut and stabbed during the bloody horror fest as he fought with Hribal.
It's anything but a secret that Gun Free Zones provide absolute protection for armed and determined madmen. We all know you can't hope stop violent armed assaults without superior or at least equal weapons in use by the assailant.
We also know that from time to time these terrible things happen especially in Gun Free Zones. It is incumbent upon those responsible for safety and security wherever children are gathered to protect them. They must take reasonable steps to insure events like what happened today at the Franklin Regional High School are stopped cold.
Instead, hysterical and institutional gun hatred ruled and the school refused to retain either armed off-duty cops or armed security officers.
What they did was to waste taxpayer's money on an unarmed guard from Capital Asset Protection, Inc. What the school did was simply to hire one more victim or hostage should anything serious happen. The website for Capital Asset Protection does not offer security guards that are either trained with or carry firearms.
This school mini-holocaust should have been stopped within seconds or only a few minutes with minimal bloodshed. Had they an armed cop, guard or teacher this event may have never happened because the assailant would have been deterred.

Internships, Fellowships, Practicums, and Dietetic Training
Training Overview
The Emily Program provides progressive care that inspires courage and changes lives one at a time. The Emily Program was founded in 1993, by psychologist Dirk Miller, to offer personalized care for all individuals struggling with eating disorders. Over the last twenty years, The Emily Program has grown into 6 outpatient clinics in Minnesota, 2 residential facilities, 2 outpatient clinics in Washington state, adolescent specialty treatment, and family care services. As leaders in the field of eating disorders, The Emily Program faculty shares in developing the most up to date and effective treatment in eating disorders through multiple research projects with the University of Minnesota. Further, The Emily Program faculty maintains expertise in the field of eating disorders by participating with the Academy of Eating Disorders, the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals, and the Residential Eating Disorder Consortium to provide the most effective and comprehensive treatment, care, and training.
The Emily Program is committed to strong evidence-based practice and excellence in training. All clinical staff are highly trained in eating disorder interventions and participate in regular supervision and training to enhance skills, maintain excellence, and learn emerging techniques and therapies. World renowned University of Minnesota psychologist and researcher Dr. Carol Peterson leads The Emily Program Training Department, including clinical training for practicum students, doctoral interns, post-doctoral fellows, and residents. The Emily Program, in conjunction with The University of Minnesota Department of Food Science and Nutrition, also offers the only eating disorder specific internship for dietetic interns.
Our professional training program emphasizes evidenced based practice on a multidisciplinary team in the treatment adolescents and adults with Anorexia Nervosa (AN), Bulimia Nervosa (BN), Binge Eating Disorder (BED), and Compulsive Overeating (COE). The multidisciplinary team includes psychologists, psychiatrists, primary care physicians, dietitians, nurses, social workers, and family therapists.
Training Goals
The individualized focus of treatment at The Emily Program transfers to that of training. Supervision goals are set at the start of the training term, and amended quarterly to address intern specific skill development and acquisition. Training progressively moves the individual toward increased autonomous practice through the succession of each quarter. The individualized training supports the development of future practitioners who:
- practice competently and ethically,
- are able to provide psychological services in diverse clinical settings, are motivated to continue their own personal and professional growth,
- welcome collaboration with practitioners of other disciplines, have attained particular skill in working clients with eating disorders,
- are aware of their own strengths and limitations and the impact those strengths and limitations on their practice of psychology, and
- are sensitive to individual differences and to the possible effects of multicultural issues
- upon diagnostic, therapeutic, and consultative relationships.
Training at The Emily Program maintains a strong focus on the interpersonal development and awareness of the future practitioner. Eating disorders are complex and dynamic, people suffering have often survived aspects of physical or relational trauma. In an effort to train future practitioners to best provide care, we believe it necessary to provide adequate focus on the practitioners' sense of self as a developing therapist. This focus on the self as therapist is maintained throughout the training, in supervision, didactics, and the intern group.

The application process varies depending on each practitioner's educational requirements for their specific field of work. Click on the professional training option below to get more information and find out how to apply for that specific opportunity.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

It is 2385, fifty years after the appearance of the Shivans at Ross 128 and the beginning of the Great War and eighteen years following the Capella supernova and conclusion of the Second Shivan Incursion. Using Knossos-derived technology, the GTVA have finally completed the construction of a subspace portal, stabilising the subspace corridor linking Delta Serpentis to Sol, the birthplace of the Terrans. After sending numerous probes through the portal, the GTVA decides that the node had indeed stabilised, and proceeds to send in the real ambassadors.
The Post Title says it all Entrenchment Version Dead Rebellion Version Taking Over
Posted by vader111 on Mar 23rd, 2013
The Bad news
First, The Entrenchment Version Is Dead. Due to Modding constraints due to entrenchment, it was getting quite a bit hard to vision this mod in entrenchment. I might if i get around to it is just touch up the entrenchment version and release it as it is.
The Good News
Second, The Rebellion version is under full steam. The Rebellion platform Is bloody wonderful to mod, that 5 Weapon limit makes it much easier to vision this mod in Rebellion So the Idea to move to Rebellion was discussed with some of the teammates. Plus with the Rebellion version, The Shivans Will be introduced.
So Hope you enjoy this post and hopefully soon i will have the old entrenchment version out or the Rebellion Version out Soon.
AWESOME!!! Hoping the work on it goes well :)
awesome ty for the update!! :)
WOO! Shivans!

What is wrong with America?
We seem to relish in the fact that there are so many who are doing less well than we are, which apparently must feed our egos.
We have at least half the population which prefers to think of these 'underachieving' folks as 'takers', because many of them pay little or no federal income tax and many are forced by low wages to accept food stamps to make sure their families get fed.
We like to forget they do pay a very large percentage of their weekly incomes on sales, gas and payroll taxes.
Unfortunately the U.S. does not lead the world in minimum wage fairness. Of 23 OECD countries we rank 11th, trailing most European nations, Australia and Canada. Denmark's trade unions have negotiated minimum wages of around $14 per hour.
America must make raising the minimum wage to $10.50 per hour an economic priority.
Sure, it might raise the cost of a hamburger 20 cents or a pair of pants by $1.00, but it will also add nearly $400 per month of spendable income into our economy for millions of underpaid American workers.
Imagine the economic boost for millions more being able to make a new car payment, buy new clothes, eat out more often or take a real vacation. It will reduce the number of Americans needing food stamps and increase Social Security and Medicare funds.
How about we ask America's overpaid CEOs and top executives to freeze their own pay for 3-5 years instead?

These Little German 'Dweebz' Will Steal Your Schnitzel
Don't be fooled: these German kids may claim to be "dweebz 4 life," but, man oh man, they're not only culturally savvy (they say "pwnd" in Germany?), but they're actually scary!
Seriously, if you ever run into these guys -- who will hopefully be attempting the "gangsta pose" upon your ill-fated meeting -- you'd best watch your back, especially around "Big Boy." All bets are on his becoming the next big pre-pubescent German version of Biggie Smalls.

He's best known for his roles on Broadway and of course on TV, but actor Bryan Batt is also a gifted interior designer. At his shop Hazelnut, Bryan has some great ideas for setting the perfect tablescape for your next party!
"Wherever you get your inspiration, it doesn't matter. Just as long as you use it and be inspired when you're setting a table or when you're decorating your home. Be inspired. You know, have fun with it, have a sense of humor. It's your home, you have to be happy in it. And make it pretty. You only go around once!"
Inside Hazelnut, you won't look far for inspiration! It's filled to the brim with gorgeous glassware, gifts and home decor. Bryan pulls together two looks for us: a pink and grey flower-inspired setting and another featuring metallic gold and silver.
He says, "I'm a firm believer in mixing everything. These wonderful goblets, these wine glasses are very affordable and bring a bit of elegance to the table. We have this smoked color and we have them in amber and green."
Bryan even mixes a plastic tumbler with his crystal stemware and he's not afraid to break the rules, using a picture frame as a place card, a bracelet as a napkin ring or adding whimsical salt and pepper shakers.
"I think your home and your design should be like a good cocktail. It should be shaken and stirred and mixed up. And I like different styles too. As long as something is true to its form, you know, I think its right. But as far as mixing, your eyes aren't really going to lie to you. If it looks right, it probably is."
And these looks are certainly right! Two beautiful ideas to glam up the table for a celebrity-inspired soiree.

ALTL vs. ETF Alternatives
ALTL Description
The RBS US Large Cap Alternator ETNs™ are designed for investors who seek exposure to the RBS US Large Cap Alternator Index™ (USD) (the "Index"). The Index utilizes a systematic relative strength strategy to provide exposure to either the S&P 500® Total Return Index, the S&P 500® Low Volatility Total Return Index or the S&P 500® Equal Weight Total Return Index (each, an "Underlying Index"), depending at any given time on the relative performance of the Underlying Indices as measured by their Relative Strength Scores. A "Relative Strength Score" is assigned to each Underlying Index on the last Index business day of each calendar month that is not a disrupted day (a "determination date") and is the simple average of the returns of that Underlying Index for the prior one-month, three-month, six-month, nine-month and twelve-month periods. The Index will track the return of the Underlying Index with the highest Relative Strength Score on any determination date, but not the other two Underlying Indices, for the following month.
