lipid storage disorder[1] that primarily affects the nervous system.[2] It has two forms, a classical form and an atypical form.[3] It is usually diagnosed in infancy or early childhood and is characterized by a progressive loss of vision, and physical and mental skills. Most cases are caused by mutations in the PLA2G6 gene. There is evidence that at least one other gene may be involved.[2] Neuroaxonal dystrophy, infantile is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion.

» Micro-Journaling
Do you Tweet? Use Facebook? When you post those updates, you are essentially micro-blogging. Want to journal but don't know where to start? Try micro-journaling! Simply put the date and a sentence or two of what's going on in your life. If filling entire pages with life experiences, goals, or day to day thoughts isn't your thing, this will allow you to put a minimum to paper for you to reflect upon at a later date – or to pass on to a future generation.
So many people think that no one else would ever want to read what they've written, but I bet most of them would jump at the chance to read about a day in the life of a long gone ancestor.
Or not. :o)
I started doing that this year. Just a few lines about the events of the day, little to no elaboration. What I like about it is that I can capture what happens every day and save my "macro-journaling" for longer or more involved topics, which can take me a few days to complete. I'm not compelled to get my daily life and general thoughts down in the same place every day. If there are significant events to chronicle, I can also add them into the larger journal at my leisure. I highly recommend this method of keeping up with one's life and thoughts.
I think this is a wonderful idea – last fall I promised myself I'd jot in down in a notebook rather than tweeting it and thus falling into the huge time-sink that is Twitter/FB. It was great for a while and then somehow I stopped. Your post is a terrific and timely reminder to start it again!
…er, of course I did find this post through twitter :/
but there's still a place for the microjournal! There's a difference between information sharing tweets and updates and momentary observations.
I do that. Write a cryptic sentence or two that no one understands but me, when I'm not in the mood for "full" journaling.
It really bothers me when people pour their hearts with "secret" messages of FB/Twitter that no one, but them, knows the person that are directed to. I secretly think "that's what journals are for" :P
Such a simple idea, I like it. It makes journaling in general, and starting a new journal, less intimidating.

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

By RONALYN V. OLEA
MANILA - They were arrested on Sept. 12, 1998, put on trial for seven
months and have been detained since. The US government has portrayed them
as terrorists but the people of Cuba regard them as heroes.
Gerardo Hernandez, Rene Gonzalez, Antonio Guerrero, Ramon Labanino and
Fernando Gonzalez, popularly known as the Cuban 5, were arrested by agents
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in Miami and were charged
with conspiracy to commit espionage.
Lawyers of the Cuban 5 raised objections to a trial in Miami, Florida,
which they deem as a community with a long history of hostility toward the
Cuban government. Eventually, the five were found guilty and were
sentenced to prison terms ranging from 15 years to two life sentences and
15 years.
"They did not put at risk the national security of the US government. They
were in Miami, Florida to get information about the terrorist activities,
which were being supported by the US government, directed against Cuba,"
Juan Carlos Arencibia Corrales, Cuban ambassador to the Philippines, told
Bulatlat.com in an interview a few days before the anniversary of the
arrest of the Cuban 5.
Arencibia said before the arrest of the five, Cuba supplied information to
the US government about the terrorist activities in Miami but the latter
did not do anything.
"The five are Cuban fighters against terrorism. They are not terrorists,"
Arencibia said.
`Great injustice'
Arencibia said the case of the Cuban 5 is "a great injustice committed by
the US government."
"They do not have any proof that the five are terrorists," Arencibia said.
"Since 1998, the case has been greatly manipulated."
In August 2005, a three-judge panel of the court of appeals revoked all of
the convictions on the ground that the five accused had not received a
fair trial in Miami. The US government then asked the 12 judges of the
Court of Appeals of the Eleventh Circuit to review the panel's decision en
banc. One year later, in August 2006, the Court revoked, by majority
decision, the previous decision of the three judges.
On May 27, 2005, the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention,
after reviewing the case of the Cuban 5, concluded that their imprisonment
was arbitrary and urged the US government to take the measures needed to
rectify the situation.
The Working Group stated that the imprisonment of the five violates
Article 14 of the International Convention on Civil and Political
Liberties, to which the United States is a signatory.
The US Supreme Court also ignored 12 amicus curiae briefs, urging the high
tribunal to review the criminal conviction. An amicus brief is a document
which is filed in a court by someone who is not directly related to the
case under consideration.
Ten Nobel laureates, including Timor Leste President Jose Ramos Horta,
Adolfo Perez Esquivel, Rigoberta Menchu, Jose Saramago, Wole Soyinka,
Zhores Alferov, Nadine Gordimer, Gunter Grass, Dario Fo and Mairead
Maguire, as well as the Mexican Senate, the National Assembly of Panama,
and Mary Robinson, the former President of Ireland (1992-97) and former UN
High Commissioner for Human Rights (1997-2002), and UNESCO General
Director Federico Mayor, among others, signed the amicus briefs.
Hundreds of parliamentarians around the world, among them 75 members of
the European Parliament, including two ex-presidents and three current
vice presidents of this Legislature; as well as numerous legal and human
rights associations of different countries of Europe, Asia and Latin
America, international personalities and legal and academic organizations
in the United States.
Violations of rights
Besides the unjust trial raised by the Cuban 5's defense lawyers, other
rights of the five prisoners were violated.
Before the trial, the five were held in solitary confinement for 17
Supporters also decried the delay in the granting of visas to the
relatives of the Cuban 5 that prevented these relatives from visiting the
five more than once a year on the average.
According to the International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban
Five, Gerardo Hernandez and Rene Gonzalez, have been prevented from
receiving visits of their respective spouses, Adriana Perez and Olga
Salanueva, who repeatedly and systematically have been denied entry permit
in US territory. As a result, Adriana and Olga have been prevented from
visiting their imprisoned husbands for more than eleven and nine years,
"The U.S. government's denial of visitation rights is a cruel and horrible
form of psychological torture. Their rationale for the denial is
ridiculous and baseless; none of these family members are a threat to
national security," the Popular Education Project to Free the Cuban 5,
another support group, said in a statement.
Recently, through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) petition, the
National Committee to Free the Cuban Five, has uncovered more than 2,200
pages of contracts between Miami journalists and Radio and TV Marti, media
outfits run by Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG), an official U.S.
government agency, and its Office of Cuba Broadcasting.
According to the National Committee to Free the Cuban Five, the U.S.
government has funneled nearly half a billion dollars into the Office of
Cuba Broadcasting in Miami. "With an annual budget nearing $35 million,
the OCB and BBG put on their payroll domestic journalists to broadcast the
same message inside and outside the United States on Cuba-related issues,
effectively violating the law against domestic dissemination of U.S.
The group maintained that the contracts prove that the U.S. government's
paid journalists in Miami "to create an atmosphere of hysteria and bias
against Cuba and the Cuban Five."
Campaign to free the Cuban 5
"Obama, also a Nobel laureate, must release the Cuban 5," Arencibia said,
referring to US President Barack Obama who was awarded the Nobel Peace
Prize in 2009.
Arencibia said Obama can use his presidential prerogative and issue an
order to release the five Cuban prisoners.
The International Committee to Free the Five issued the same call, urging
Obama "to end the injustice against the five," as the 13th year of their
imprisonment draws near.
The group noted that while the United States keeps these innocent men in
prison, it protects notorious terrorists such as Luis Posada Carriles.
Carriles, a former agent of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA),was
accused of masterminding terrorist activities in Cuba. The solidarity
committee demanded that Washington "extradite Carriles, a fugitive in
Venezuela, a country that has demanded his extradition for six years."
"We have been softening terrorist activities. The U.S. has no moral
authority to accuse us of terrorism because it is the biggest terrorist in
the world," Arencibia said.

So, a number of the players decided to play nephilim for my Anima campaign, and I'm trying to figure out how nephilim fit into society. Are they loners and outcasts of society, having to conceal their unusual features? Are they hunted as witches by the majority of civilizations? Are they considered 'odd', but part and parcel of society? Do people just shrug when they see these people?
I mean, my wife's character is jayan, so she stands 12 feet tall. Now, 12 feet tall people are not 'normal', but is this something people will just accept, or run screaming from?
I can't find anything describing how people react to nephilim, anywhere.

One of the nifty things about financing a hugely anticipated movie that is sure to bring in a giant audience is that you can use that movie to promote your other movies. We have a wonderful example of this today: Paramount is one of the studios behind "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey." They also have "Star Trek Into Darkness" ready for release May 17, 2013. So how about this? They're going to show nine minutes of "Star Trek Into Darkness" before showings of "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" at IMAX 3D theaters when it opens on December 14th. So if you love "The Hobbit" and you love "Star Trek," make sure you see it in an IMAX 3D theater.
Here's an excerpt from the press release:
"Our longtime partners J.J. Abrams, Bryan Burk and the Bad Robot team have really hit it out of the park – the footage is absolutely incredible," said Greg Foster, Chairman and President, IMAX Filmed Entertainment. "Their use of the IMAX Camera and canvas is sure to impress current and future Star Trek fans alike, and we're thrilled to once again work with our friends at Paramount Pictures to offer this extended 'first look' at this highly anticipated summer blockbuster."
To further the IMAX experience, Star Trek Into Darkness used IMAX cameras to capture several sequences. Exclusively in IMAX theaters, sequences filmed with the extremely high-resolution cameras will expand to fill more of the screen with unprecedented crispness and clarity, putting moviegoers right into the explosive action and vast scope of the film.
Similar IMAX previews have been used to great success with films like The Dark Knight, Avatar and, last year, Paramount's own Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol.
The film, set for release on May 17, 2013, is directed by J.J. Abrams with a script by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Damon Lindelof. Chris Pine, John Cho, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban and Anton Yelchin will reprise their roles from the 2009 original with new parts for Benedict Cumberbatch, Alice Eve and Peter Weller. Abrams is producing with Bryan Burk through Bad Robot Productions, along with Lindelof, Kurtzman and Orci.
And remember, if you see the preview and anyone asks what you think, say, "It needs a colon in the title."

Hilton Burlington
Burlington, VT, 05401, United States
The Hilton Burlington, which contains 258 guest rooms, suites, and executive rooms decorated in autumnal reds, oranges, and yellows, has a boxy, modern design that's more utilitarian than it is flashy. Here, location is the key, as the hotel is perched on a hill overlooking Waterfront Park and the nation's sixth largest lake, Champlain. The 24-hour fitness center on the mezzanine level features a heated indoor pool and Jacuzzi alongside floor-to-ceiling windows that offer sweeping views—especially impressive at sunset—of the lake and the Green Mountains. An additional perk: the property's proximity (three blocks) to the pedestrian-friendly Church Street Marketplace, the city's foremost dining, entertainment, and shopping destination.
Room to Book:
As the premier feature of the hotel is its elevated lakeside location, make sure to book a room on the front (west) side of the building, the higher the better.
Insider Tip:
ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center, just a few minutes walk from the hotel, features an adult-friendly cocktail party called ECHO After Dark on the second Thursday of every month.

Eric Freeman
Klay Thompson sets NBA record with 37 points in a quarter
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 2 days agoThe Western Conference is full of deserving All-Star guard candidates, to the point where many terrific players will be left off the list through no fault of their own. Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson, averaging 21.9 ppg for the NBA's best team, is one of those guys. If he doesn't make it with that resume, then you know the conference is stacked.
You can now forget about that possibility. In one quarter of Friday night's game against the Sacramento Kings, Thompson ensured that he will end up in the All-Star Game. Because he scored 37 points in the third quarter to set an NBA record.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
Yes, you read that correctly. After the Kings opened the half on a 7-0 run to take a 58-56 lead, Thompson redefined "on fire" by hitting all 13 of his field-goal attempts, including nine three-pointers. Perhaps most remarkably, Thompson set the mark by shooting only two free throws to finish off his scoring with four seconds remaining in the period. Everyone knew he was getting the ball and they just couldn't stop him. The video does not lie:
James Harden drains buzzer-beater winner, Rockets hold off Suns
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 2 days agoThe Houston Rockets rested on the verge of blowing a big fourth-quarter lead to the host Phoenix Suns on Friday night. Then the NBA's leading scorer reminded everyone of his genius.
With a little more than six minutes remaining in regulation, the Rockets led the Suns 102-86, a sizable margin that appeared very difficult to surmount given the momentum and state of the game. All Phoenix did to respond was reel off 14-4 run over more than 3 1/2 minutes to make it a contest again, ultimately tying the game up on an old-fashioned three-point-play lay-up from forward Markieff Morris with just 16 seconds remaining.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
The Rockets had one possession to grab back a win and avoid what projected as a trying overtime. Not surprisingly, they gave the ball to James Harden in isolation against P.J. Tucker. The resulting play was downright filthy:
Before his buzzer-beater, Harden had an arguably more impressive highlight (out of context, at least) when he sent Eric Bledsoe sprawling with a Eurostep in transition:

Kent Bazemore is dunked-on and dunker as Hawks set franchise-record win streak
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 2 days agoPretty much everything is going right for the Atlanta Hawks these days. The Eastern Conference leaders entered Friday night's home game vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder with a 14-game winning streak, matching a franchise record set during the 1993-94 season. Something special is happening with this team, and it's worth appreciating it for as long as it lasts.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
Things are going so well, in fact, that it's easy to assume that the team will bounce back from any in-game embarrassment with a run or highlight of their own. That's exactly what happened to reserve guard Kent Bazemore in the second quarter on Friday. In the midst of an uncharacteristically ineffective offensive performance for Atlanta, Bazemore attempted to catch a surging Kevin Durant as the reigning MVP dribbled up the court in transition. All that hustle just allowed him to end up on the wrong end of a posterization:

Shocker: Gregg Popovich doesn't care for All-Star PR campaigns
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 3 days agoSan Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich long ago established an identity as a no-nonsense, basketball-focused leader with little time for the sideshows of NBA fame. Even when increased media attention would benefit his team, Pop and the Spurs have eschewed the spotlight for privacy. It seems to suit them just fine.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
Sometimes, though, the basketball world encroaches on the Spurs' bubble. Now that the starters have been announced for February's All-Star Game in New York City, it's time for the league's head coaches to pick each conference's reserves. Many teams have gone all out to promote their top players for the honor. You will be shocked to learn that Popovich does not pay much attention to these PR materials. From Dan McCarney of the San Antonio Express News:
Pop cares not for your cute All-Star campaigns: "For those who sent me something, I just want them to know it immediately went in the trash"
DeAndre Jordan crushes Brook Lopez on the alley-oop
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 3 days agoBrook Lopez has had a rough go of it lately with the Brooklyn Nets, serving at the center of various trade rumors and reports that the franchise has soured on their max-deal big man's capacity for stardom. Given that context, what Los Angeles Clippers center DeAndre Jordan did to Lopez in Thursday night's game at Staples Center probably qualifies as overkill.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
A little more than halfway through the second quarter, Chris Paul teed up a perfect alley-oop pass for Jordan, who finished on an earthbound Lopez with the trademark power we've seen many times before. Take a look:
Lopez's teammate Mirza Teletovic effectively summed up everyone's reaction:

Ricky Rubio's ankle injury is worse than previously thought
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 3 days agoThe Minnesota Timberwolves were never in line for a particularly great season in 2014-15, but things got a lot tougher for them when point guard Ricky Rubio went down with a high ankle sprain way back on November 7. While initial prognoses had Rubio out for no more than six weeks, he has already missed roughly 2 1/2 months and has shown no signs of an imminent return. Clearly, his health has not improved at the expected rate, and the Wolves' desire for a high draft pick does not seem to be what's keeping Rubio on the sidelines.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
The team confirmed as much on Wednesday night. It appears that Rubio suffered a much more serious injury than the already concerning high ankle sprain. Jon Krawczynski of the Associated Press has more:

Steph Curry, LeBron James lead 2015 NBA All-Star Game starters
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 4 days agoThe starters for the NBA's midwinter classic have been set. As announced on a TNT special prior to Thursday night's games, the league has revealed the starters for the 2015 All-Star Game, set to be played on February 15 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The set of 10 players features a mix of longtime selections, up-and-coming superstars, and even one brand-new All-Star face.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
Golden State Warriors point guard and MVP favorite Stephen Curry led all vote-getters, inching ahead of Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James in the final days of voting after trailing in all previously announced returns during the process. Curry has helped a loaded Warriors roster to the NBA's best record at 34-6 and led the voting in just his second All-Star appearance after being voted in last season. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr will coach the West All-Stars, becoming the first rookie coach to do so since Larry Bird of the Indiana Pacers served on the East sidelines in 1998.

Kobe Bryant injured his shoulder, then decided to play left-handed
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 4 days agoKobe Bryant's toughness is not and never really has been in question. The Los Angeles Lakers icon has played injured on many occasions, often appearing to sacrifice his long-term health for a better chance at regular-season wins. If there were any remaining questions about his tolerance for pain, Kobe answered them in April 2013 after he shot two free throws a few seconds after snapping his Achilles' tendon against the Golden State Warriors. Normal players would not even contemplate continuing, even in a dead-ball situation.
That well-established reputation both does and doesn't explain Kobe's decision to play hurt during Wednesday night's Lakers game at New Orleans. With a few minutes left in the third quarter, Kobe went up for a dunk and finished. On his way up the court, though, he grabbed his right shoulder and left the game soon after.

Westbrook lays in the OT winner in Durant's D.C. homecoming
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 4 days agoAll eyes were on Kevin Durant for the Oklahoma City Thunder's visit to Washington on Wednesday to face the Wizards at the Verizon Center. The D.C.-area native has been heavily rumored as a potential acquisition of his hometown team when he becomes a free agent in the summer of 2016, and both the Wizards and their fans did not shy away from trying to appeal to Durant in his lone trip to town this season. Even with the Wizards playing like a contender to win the East, everyone seems to be focused on bringing Durant back home in 18 months.
KD performed very well through all the attention, but it was his Thunder co-star who grabbed the spotlight in the final seconds of a tight, back-and-forth game. With mere seconds on the clock and the score tied at 103-103 in overtime, Russell Westbrook darted through the Washington defense and finished at the rim with ease to give his team a two-point lead with just 0.8 seconds remaining. Take a look:
Others just went with the more typical signs:

Hey, Kyle Korver dunked for the first time in two seasons
Eric Freeman at Ball Don't Lie 4 days agoAtlanta Hawks wing Kyle Korver is having a remarkable season as a shooter, hitting on more than 50 percent of his shots from the field, 50 percent of his three-pointers, and 90 percent of his free throws. There has been exactly one 50/50/90 players in the modern era — Steve Kerr was the last one as a reserve guard for the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls — which effectively means that Korver is in line for the greatest shooting season in NBA history. Those current marks and the Hawks' conference-leading form have given him a solid chance at making his first All-Star team at 33 years old, which is both very impressive and surprising even if Korver does not end up making the squad. The man deserves some attention.

Yet all that seems secondary to what Korver did in the second quarter of Wednesday night's game vs. the Indiana Pacers. For the first time in two season, Kyle Korver dunked:

How could you imagine that in the center of a capital residential district in Ukraine one would see this…
The documentary film "The Hole" was shot here, and people named this place "the hole" without thinking twice.
The director of the first film part is a Czech Jiří Stejskal. The film was shown at many festivals, won different awards and besides several European televisions bought rights for showing the film on their channels.
People really live in the hole with the depth of several metres.
A connection with "the big land" (with the rest of the town).
Previously there was the village Poznyaky here.

WAKE FOREST, NC, August 20, 2013 — Many Americans see the Tea Party as a bigoted movement of uneducated white men that caters to big business and the rich. That does not and never has accurately described the Tea Party movement.
The Tea Party is not an officially a political party, though there are Tea Parties affiliated with the movement. It has no central leadership.
SEE RELATED: FULGENCIO: Has Rubio alienated the Tea Party with immigration reform?
People who identify with the movement do not come just from Republicans or identify only as conservatives. Independents, Democrats and liberals are all represented. It lacks any significant representation only from those who call themselves progressives, socialists or communists.
The "Tea" in Tea Party is often considered an acronym for "Taxed Enough Already." Tea Partyers are opposed to ever-expanding government. The Tea Party also adamantly holds to the principles outlined in the founding documents of the United States: The U.S. Constitution, and the Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration of Independence sets out the principles on which our government was founded:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. —That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
SEE RELATED: Ron Paul blasts establishment in Ron Paul Channel debut
The Constitution takes the Declaration's principles and uses them to organize and limit the powers of government. But because they are arrogant, and because many citizens do not know what is actually outlined in the Constitution, elected officials are out of control in Washington.
How many know that the Constitution says this: "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time."
Yet Federal money is being poured into the stock market, foreign governments are being bankrolled, and unions and other organizations receive monetary favors based on political influences, while annual budgets and specific accounting for government spending has not been followed. Instead, we have continuing resolutions and executive orders that dole out public funds without accountability.
The Tea Party arose from spontaneous protests against elected officials who have become non-responsive to the voters. When the establishment saw the broad socioeconomic appeal of the early Tea Party rallies, they panicked.
When Nancy Pelosi was Speaker of the House of Representatives, she made a strong effort to besmirch, castigate and belittle the Tea Party. The former Speaker even claimed the Tea Party movement was the artificial creation of wealthy interests, not a spontaneous grass-roots movement. The fact that she attempted to discredit the Tea Party movement is evidence that she perceived it as a serious threat.
The national Tea Party is not fundamentally pro-life or anti-gay. The Tea Party (in general) prefers that social issues be addressed, debated and adopted in political party platforms.
Herein lies a significant rub with internal factions of the Tea Party. More can be accomplished to regain control of our runaway government if issues that unite the grassroots — such as smaller government, the end of needless and burdensome regulations, decreased federal spending, and strict adherence to the U.S. Constitution — are agreed to and used as points of emphasis within the Tea Party movement.
Social issues are not unimportant, but the Tea Party is not a centrally organized party. It is a movement, so Tea Party activists would do well to concentrate on issues that a large segment of Americans agree on and work to broaden its base across party lines. It started as a reaction against unresponsive government and high taxes; that is where its emphasis should stay. The movement's objectives should be pared down to a minimum, not expand to satisfy every group currently served by the GOP.
Mark R. Levin's new book, "The Liberty Amendments," gives ordinary citizens like you and me a straightforward blueprint on how to change our country back into the kind of republic that the Founding Fathers imagined. We no longer have a government that represents the will of the people. Nor do elected officials follow the Constitution. For these reasons, it is incumbent upon the constituents to take matters into their own hands.
When Americans have a true epiphany of the power a reawakened constituency, we will see a true threat to the status quo. When "We the People" move to action, things can turn around for the better in a hurry.
For the sake of our children and future generations: Let's get it done now!
"If not you; who? If not now; when?" (Hillel the Elder)
Bill Randall is a former U.S. Congressional candidate and Tea Party activist. His 2010 candidacy defied the liberal conventional wisdom that asserts that the Tea Party movement is racist: He won the GOP nomination in a North Carlina runoff. He garnered 59 percent of the vote and won all seven counties, including Granville county, where he won 81 percent of the vote.

DAYTON, Ohio, Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Millbrook Distribution Services, headquartered in Leicester, Massachusetts, has selected Edict Systems, Inc., a leading provider of Internet-based Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) services, to bring more efficient and economical EDI services to Millbrook and to increase EDI adoption from its suppliers.
Millbrook provides specialty, ethnic and natural foods to more than 10,000 retail stores in 45 states. When Millbrook and Edict began working together, Millbrook was doing EDI with approximately 50 percent of their 1,200 suppliers via a 3rd party Value-Added Network. To fully realize the efficiency and cost savings of EDI, the company needed a much higher percentage of compliance from its suppliers and a lower cost EDI provider.
"Edict is able to offer Millbrook innovations and additional EDI services at a lower cost than they had been receiving," says Dave Rike, Edict's Vice President of Sales. "In addition to using EnterpriseEC(R), our Trading Community Connectivity and Management solution, Millbrook is utilizing Edict's Hub & Spoke program to enlist more of their suppliers via our GroceryEC.com service in a dedicated effort to meet their goal of 100-percent participation."
Edict assisted Millbrook with implementing Advance Ship Notices and bar coding by providing technical assistance and a web-based ASN solution for their suppliers. "Millbrook is also adding Edict's unique hosted business rules service, ValidateEC, to enhance their current EDI capabilities," Mr. Rike adds. "ValidateEC performs data integrity matches on all data in real- time to assure complete accuracy. Should there be any discrepancy between what was ordered, shipped, and delivered, the system electronically notifies all parties immediately and allows Millbrook to monitor their entire supply chain via a web-based interface."
Karen Leggett, Millbrook's Vice President of Purchasing Systems says, "Millbrook Distribution Services has been engaged in a project with Edict Systems on an important business initiative during the last year. Our goal is to achieve 100% supplier compliance with EDI for all purchase orders and invoices. Edict Systems management, project support team and development resources have been outstanding to work with. Edict's people are professional and knowledgeable. They handle all vendor ramping activities and their testing & certification process is highly effective and efficient. This allows Millbrook to achieve our business and financial goals. We are looking forward to implementing ValidateEC within the coming year. This product will dramatically change our ability to see and react to our commerce transaction data and establish critical two-way communication with our trading partners."
"The migration to Edict from Millbrook's previous EDI provider has been very smooth," Mr. Rike concludes. "We make EDI simple and economical enough to serve the needs of businesses of all sizes, facilitating the participation of every supplier. Our goal is to establish a supply chain process that is mutually beneficial to both Millbrook and their trading partners."

French photographer Kate Fichard gets her street portrait subjects to cover themselves in significant objects that symbolize culture, life and everyday moments.
Entitled 'Totem de Vie,' the photography series showcases people whose individual identities are hidden as their faces are concealed, yet more subversive cultural elements are on display for viewers to interpret. Each item holds meaning to the subject, thus by being worn, the everyday objects turn the people into totems, or symbolic figures, of their own lives. Pots and pans, musical instruments, soccer balls and leafy twigs are some of the items that some might view as clutter while others would view them as the junk that fills their lives.
The 'Totem de Vie' street portrait series by Kate Fichard demonstrates how different lives are deeply impacted by items.

The first Space Shuttle ever built, the Enterprise, landed in Queens today, April 27, atop a NASA 747 after doing a flyby around the city, the Hudson River Valley and Long Island.
The craft touched down at Kennedy Airport, where it will be stored for several weeks, at 11:23 a.m. It will be shipped by barge to the USS Intrepid Air and Space Museum on the West Side of Manhattan, where it will be displayed alongside other iconic American flying machines.
Built in the mid-1970s, the Enterprise was a test model that never actually reached outer space. It was first tested on the ground and then atop jumbo jets like the one it rode into the city today. Five times it was released from its carrier and brought back to Earth by remote control.
Originally slated to be named the Constitution, it was christened Enterprise by President Gerald Ford after the "Star Trek" ship that took its crew "where no man had gone before."

Most of you are probably already engaged in the many activities of the holiday and are too busy to read the forum today but hopefully the sentiment is good for all the other days of the year. I hope you always have enough.I hope you have great joy and only small sorrow, I hope you can take satisfaction in what you do whether it is a great task or a small one, I hope you have more than enough to share and if you don't, then the humility to accept help with dignity and without resentment, I hope you are strong and healthy and if not, that it is for only a brief time. Most of all I hope you recognize the friends you have on this forum who always wish you well. Happy Thanksgiving |

How lovely, Sandy. Thanks for a beautiful prayer. I'm going to print it out and keep it as a reminder for the times when life seems rough. I am blessed to have good friends and relatives. My BF and I spent the day with my cousins. We played a game called Apples to Apples. If anyone enjoys family type games, try this one out. It is a hoot. Happy Thanksgiving |
Thank you Sandy. Happy Holidays to everyone! Sarah |
Our Thanksgiving was great. Sandy, thanks from me too - I've been counting my blessings, but you put it in such a good way! :) Mary |

This is currently my favorite scent. It is so light and refreshing, floral, sweet, and very classy. When I was growing up, my mom always wore Beautiful, and the Summer Waters version of Beautiful reminds me of my mom when she was young and full of vivacious energy (she's still full of vivacious energy -- she's just kind of old now...but don't tell her I said that! Ha ha!) There's nothing spectacular about the packaging -- it's pretty, and it's practical. I do wish there were a smaller size, however, because I wear so many different fragrances that I never have a need for a full-size edp or edt. A travel size would be perfect for my needs. However, I'm sure that over time, this will get used up, and I'll be wishing it weren't a special summer fragrance that won't continue to be produced.

Citrus Bioflavonoids
En Español (Spanish Version)
Supplement Forms/Alternate Names
Principal Proposed Uses
Other Proposed Uses
Citrus fruits are well known for providing ample amounts of vitamin C. But they also supply bioflavonoids, substances that are not required for life but that may improve health. The major bioflavonoids found in citrus fruits are diosmin, hesperidin, rutin, naringin, tangeretin, diosmetin, narirutin, neohesperidin, nobiletin, and quercetin.
This article addresses the first five bioflavonoids listed above. Please see the article Quercetin for information on this supplement. A modified form of rutin, oxerutin, is also discussed in its own article.
Citrus bioflavonoids and related substances are widely used in Europe to treat diseases of the blood vessels and lymph system, including hemorrhoids, chronic venous insufficiency, leg ulcers, easy bruising, nosebleeds, and lymphedema following breast cancer surgery. These compounds are thought to work by strengthening the walls of blood vessels. Bioflavonoids are also often said to act as antioxidants; however, while they do have antioxidant activity in the test tube, growing evidence suggests that they do not act as antioxidants in people.45
Citrus fruits contain citrus bioflavonoids in varying proportions. Even different brands of citrus juice may vary widely in their bioflavonoid concentrations and composition.1 For use as a supplement, bioflavonoids are extracted either from citrus fruits or other plant sources, such as buckwheat.

Helminthic therapy
Helminthic therapy, an experimental type of immunotherapy, is the treatment of autoimmune diseases and immune disorders by means of deliberate infestation with a helminth or with the ova of a helminth. Helminths are parasitic worms such as hookworms and whipworms.
Helminthic therapy consists of the inoculation of the patient with specific parasitic intestinal nematodes (helminths). There are currently four such organisms used in treatment: Trichuris suis ova (TSO),[1] commonly known as pig whipworm eggs; Necator americanus,[2] commonly known as hookworms; Trichuris trichiura ova,[2] commonly referred to as human whipworm eggs; and Hymenolepis diminuta known as rat tapeworm cysticerci.
Current research targets Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), multiple sclerosis, and asthma.
Helminthic infection has emerged as one possible explanation for the low incidence of autoimmune diseases and allergies in less developed countries, together with the significant and sustained increase in autoimmune diseases in industrialized countries.[3][4][5][6]
Incidence of autoimmune diseases and parasitic infestation[edit]
While it is recognized that there is probably a genetic disposition in certain individuals for the development of autoimmune diseases, the rate of increase in incidence of autoimmune diseases is not a result of genetic changes in humans; the rise of autoimmune related diseases in the industrialized world occurring in too short a time to be explained in this way. There is evidence that one of the primary reasons for the increase in autoimmune diseases in industrialized nations is the significant change in environmental factors over the last century. It is posited that the absence of exposure to certain parasites, bacteria, and viruses is playing a significant role in the development of autoimmune diseases in the more sanitized Western industrialized nations.[7][8] Environmental factors include exposure to certain artificial chemicals from industrial processes, medicines, farming, and food preparation.
Lack of exposure to naturally occurring pathogens and parasites may result in an increased incidence of autoimmune diseases. This is consistent with the hygiene hypothesis.[3][9] A complete explanation of how environmental factors play a role in autoimmune diseases has still not been proposed. However, epidemiological studies, such as the meta-analysis by Leonardi-Bee et al.,[3] have helped to establish the link between parasitic infestation and its protective role in autoimmune disease development.
Genetic research on the interleukin genes (IL genes) shows that helminths have been a major selective force on a subset of these human genes. In other words, helminths have shaped the evolution of at least parts of the human immune system, especially the genes responsible for Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and celiac disease — and provides further evidence that it is the absence of parasites, and in particular helminths, that has likely caused a substantial portion of the increase in incidence of diseases of immune dysregulation and inflammation in industrialized countries in the last century.[10]
Although the mechanism of autoimmune disease development is not fully defined, there is broad agreement that the majority of autoimmune diseases are caused by inappropriate immunological responses to innocuous antigens, driven by a branch of the immune system known as the TH1 type immune response. Extra-cellular antigens primarily trigger the TH2 response, as observed with allergies, while intracellular antigens trigger a TH1 response. The relationship between these two types of immune response is a central theme of the hygiene hypothesis, which suggests that there is a regulatory action between the two types of response. However, the observation that allergies and autoimmune response are increasing at a similar rate in industrialized nations appears to undermine the hygiene hypothesis.
The hygiene hypothesis proposes that appropriate immune response is in part learned by exposure to microorganisms and parasites, and in part regulated by their presence. In industrialized nations, humans are exposed to somewhat lower levels of these organisms. The development of vaccines, hygienic practices, and effective medical care have diminished or eliminated the prevalence and impact of many parasitic organisms, as well as bacterial and viral infections. This has been of obvious benefit with the effective eradication of many diseases that have plagued human beings. However, while many severe diseases have been eradicated, humans' exposure to benign and apparently beneficial parasites has also been reduced commensurately. The central thrust of the hypothesis is, therefore, that correct development of T regulator cells in individuals may depend on exposure to organisms such as lactobacilli, various mycobacteria, and helminths.[6] Lack of exposure to sufficient benign antigens, particularly during childhood, is sometimes suggested as a cause of the increase in autoimmune diseases and diseases for which chronic inflammation is a major component in the industrialized world.
Two refinements to the hygiene hypothesis exist, the "Old Friends" hypothesis, and the "Biome Depletion theory." [11][12]
The old friends hypothesis modifies the hygiene hypothesis by proposing that T regulator cells can only become fully effective if they are stimulated by exposure to microorganisms and parasites that have low levels of pathogenicity and that have coexisted universally with human beings throughout our evolutionary history. This hypothesis has recently been given more credibility by a study demonstrating the impact of infectious organisms, and helminths in particular, upon genes responsible for the production of various cytokines, some involved in the regulation of inflammation, in particular those associated with the development of Crohn's Disease, ulcerative colitis, and celiac disease.[10]
The Biome Depletion theory posits that the absence of an entire class of organisms from the human inner ecology (biome) is a profound evolutionary mismatch that destabilizes the immune system, resulting in disease. The biome is "depleted." The way to correct the dysregulation is to "reconstitute", or replenish, keynote species in healthy individuals prior to the development of human diseases of modern living. As keynote organisms, helminths are central to correcting immune dysregulation, and their replenishment may be a disease preventative. [13] Biome depletion theory departs from a drug model approach, which remains the current focus of helminthic therapy as evidenced by numerous clinical trails now underway for existing disease states.
Helminthic therapy is currently being studied as a treatment for several (non-viral) autoimmune diseases including celiac disease,[14][15] Crohn's disease,[16][17][18][19] multiple sclerosis,[20] ulcerative colitis,[21] and atherosclerosis.[22]
Hookworms have been linked to reduced risk of developing asthma, while Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworm infection) was associated with an increased risk of asthma.[3]

Freshman Marcus Lee, a McDonald's All-American, did not play until early in the second half against Transylvania but had three points, two rebounds and one blocked shot in nine minutes to impress Calipari.
In fact, coach John Calipari said the only reason that Dakari Johnson — nine minutes, eight rebounds in 17 minutes — didn't play more was because he wanted to give Lee an opportunity.
"Got to get Marcus Lee in the game. You got to play Marcus Lee, so who doesn't play? Somebody, somebody. Who is it? Because he goes in with that kind of energy, he changes the game," Calipari said. "Dakari played well. He did. The only reason he didn't play more is because I wanted to give Marcus Lee some time."
Lee was energetic on the bench before he got into the game and on the court he was talking and several times showed the superb leaping ability he has. Calipari says he's just as good in practice.
"Always does the same thing. It's just that he's at a position, he doesn't have a skill set to play a four at this point," Calipari said. "So now I got to figure out, do I got to play him at some four and how do I do that, because Dakari has to play. I think Willie (Cauley-Stein) is good enough to play. Now you got three guys at that kind of position (center). How do you play all three? One of them has to play another position."

6 Reasons To Use Fiber On Your Next Project
Connecting the right cable in the right place is obviously essential for pro AV systems integrators, but choosing the right type of cabling for the job can be just as important. We've all heard the stereotypes, as the fiber versus copper debate has been raging for more than a decade.
In digital video applications, copper cables that are adequate today won't be up to carrying higher-resolution signals that will come with tomorrow's standards, says Steven Barlow, president of DVIGear in Chapel Hill, NC. Future standards for high-definition television will raise bandwidth requirements from 742.5 Mb/s to 1.545 Gb. A 50-foot copper cable could handle the former, but not the latter. Barlow says this is his major reason for recommending fiber to DVIGear customers. "If you want to be sure the pipeline is going to be future-ready, you should consider fiber," he says.
One technique involved in fiber installations offers added insurance against future needs. It involves installing conduit with space to spare and then blowing in fiber using compressed air. If you need more capacity in the future, you can blow in additional fibers. Commare says this has been done in the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris to minimize future work in the historic building. Air-blown fiber is also used in the White House, he says.
3 Fiber has installation advantages.Some people think fiber is harder to install than copper. It's true that terminating fiber in the field used to be tricky. "Up until about three years ago, I'll be honest with you, it was a major pain," Lopinto says. But no more. "Today there are field termination kits where you can put a connector on in three minutes or less."
That's down from 10 or 15 minutes a few years ago, and is comparable to the amount of time it takes to terminate coax. Meanwhile, fiber is also thinner and lighter than its copper counterpart. "The big disadvantage of having copper cabling is that it's very heavy and very bulky," says David Caidar, president of Opticomm Corp. in San Diego. Not only does that mean copper cable takes up more space — sometimes a critical issue — but it also makes it more work to install.
Reduced bulk eliminates a number of headaches, especially in rental & staging jobs. A copper snake can be a bulky, intrusive beast that's difficult to route without causing annoyance and hazards to the audience. A fiber snake is much less bulky. "I have many more ways that I can route it and sneak it into places," Lopinto says.
For those who worry fiber is more fragile and prone to damage, Lopinto disagrees. "Just because optical fiber is made of glass doesn't mean it's easy to break," he says.
The glass core is well protected, and according to Lopinto, fiber is less sensitive to damage than coax, which can produce ghosting on a video image if the cable is crushed.
Citing a specific example, Commare claims broadcast crews covering professional golf matches have been able to cut four days off their time onsite because of the simplicity of setting up with fiber (see photo, left). "They go from having a bundle of cable that's probably 18 inches to having one bundle of fiber probably as big as your pinky." And weight is important to broadcasters for another reason — fiber costs a lot less to transport. "They made their money back in the first year just on labor and accommodations and the weight of their trucks," Commare says.
Installing the cable itself isn't the whole story. With copper cabling, Lopinto says, a series of steps are necessary to ensure a good signal — equalization, gain adjustment, and de-skewing. Fiber requires none of this. "You basically put the product in and that's it," Lopinto says. "It either works perfectly, or it doesn't work at all."
4 Fiber is immune to electromagnetic interference.Neither radio-frequency interference (RFI) nor electromagnetic interference (EMI) affects fiber, notes Caidar. This means you can run fiber right alongside electrical cables without worrying about noise. Electric motors, fluorescent light ballasts, and other environmental variables that can cause problems with the signal on a copper cable have no effect on the photons flowing through fiber. That means there are more options for routing fiber. "We have people that run fiber through elevator shafts, which are notorious for being very noisy because of the high-induction motors there," Lopinto says.

A Civil ActionReviewed by: W.J. Kimble Average
Moviemaking Quality:
Primary Audience:
Teens Adults
112 min.
Starring: John Travolta, Robert Duvall, Tony Shalhoub, William H. Macy, Zeljko Ivanek, James Gandolfini, Bruce Norris, John Lithgow, Kathleen Quinlan, Stephen Fry, Dan Hedaya | Director: Steven Zaillian | Released by: Touchstone Pictures By this definition, a civil action would mean "a series of events and episodes that reveal the interactions between citizens of a specified society." "A Civil Action" does just that, but with a unique twist. By revealing the true motives of many who practice law, it actually exposes the corruption of some members of our legal system and the coldness of some of those who are supposed to represent us (the ordinary citizens). According to law, however, the word "civil" means "Relating to the rights of private individuals and legal proceedings concerning these rights as distinguished from criminal, military, or international regulations or proceedings." While most of us associate the term "a civil action" in this fashion, Steven Zaillian, the director, gives us a glimpse of the greed and avarice which motivates our judicial advocates. Jan Schlichtmann (John Travolta), while being interviewed on a radio talk show, tells the listeners that to get the big money, a case shouldn't ever go to trial. He tells them to forget due process, justice or any feelings for the client. After all, empathy clouds judgment. He says that when it comes to personal injury suits, the goal is to reach an out-of-court settlement because, in a court of law, litigants are "lucky to find anything.that resembles the truth." So much for defending the rights of private individuals! Zaillian reveals to us the ego, greed, tenacity and passion that compels the legal team of Schlichtmann, Kevin Conway (Tony Shalhoub, "Paulie"), Bill Crowley (Zeljko Ivanek, "Courage Under Fire") and their accountant, James Gordon (William H. Macy, "Wag the Dog"). He also exposes the corruption and the craftiness of corporate litigation through the well financed judicial adversaries, Jerome Facher (Robert Duvall, "Deep Impact," "The Apostle") and William Cheeseman (Bruce Norris). These men representing Beatrice Foods and W.R. Grace respectively. He even reveals the pomposity of some of our judges, who sit on the bench and preside over these cases. Judge Walter J. Skinner (John Lithgow, TV's "3rd Rock from the Sun") almost insures the demise of the people's case in favor of the corporations that are being sued for toxic poisoning of the water supply, which caused a series of leukemia deaths in Woburn, Massachusetts. "A Civil Action" is based on a true story. In the 1980's Schlichtmann sued for millions of dollars on behalf of the parents who lost their loved ones to the insensitivity of these corporate giants. In the process, he loses his home, his car, his offices, his practice, and his possessions. Eventually, he loses even the respect and support of his peers. With the help of an inside man and an actual eyewitness, Al Love (James Gandolfini, "Get Shorty"), Schlichtmann finally wins a small reprieve. But the loss is horrendous and John Travolta, in a stunning moment of emotion, reveals the trauma that befell this man of honor and intrigue. The case is only won, when Schlichtmann sends the EPA information that ultimately leads to a criminal investigation and trial. When did this man of greed become a man of integrity? We are never really told. While Zaillian does hint at it, he chooses to leave it up to our imagination, rather than reveal it directly. Overall, "A Civil Action" is a good movie, and most likely a film to be nominated for "Best Picture of the Year." We may even see Travolta receive a nomination for "Best Actor" and Duvall for "Best Supporting Actor." Because of its portrayal of the psychology of litigation and the motivation of those who represent us, however, many will find this movie boring. "A Civil Action" is heavy on profanity; contains no nudity; and would be best seen by teens (in their high-school years) through adults. Year of Release—1998 I was very disappointed in this movie. While it tells a good story of how a greedy, selfish individual can change into a caring human being, I thought the movie could have been acted and directed better. I did not feel for Jan or for the victims of the water poisoning. I never felt the opportunity to grieve for the children or to grieve for the parents. In my opinion, the mark of a great movie is if you come away wanting to tell others to see it, wanting to see it again and being involved in the story. I felt none of these during this movie that is why I cannot recommend it. It does have some profanity in the beginning but fortunately is not offensive in any other way!
[3/2½]—Anonymous Recommended movie. "A Civil Action" portrays a very worthwhile true story. Inspite of some strong language, this film was mild for today's typical PG-13 rating. In fact, younger audiences may simply get bored. There is no action in "A Civil Action." The film's strengths in my view are a noble story that is rewarding for christian viewing. The drama held my interest. The journey of the main character from the love of money to the value of people was refreshing. This is not best picture material in my view, but is still done well and reveals an important story of suffering and justice. With all of the junk currently at the theatres, "A Civil Action" is a reminder of what good movies are all about.
—Todd Adams, age 31 One of the best performances ever given by John Travolta. A far cry from the one he gave in "Primary Colors." If one enjoys movies about the law… this is one to see. Hopefully, it depicts the truth in which corporate America will do anything to line their pockets at the expense of the general public.
—Sid and Brenda Owens, age 52 I must confess that I have not seen this movie yet, but hope to. However, as a Christian attorney, I felt I must respond to the negative tone of the review concerning the legal profession. As we should all know, Hollywood does not deal in reality. Unfortunately, our society (including Christians) allows its perceptions of reality to be influenced by the movies and TV programs produced by Hollywood. The public seizes on stereotypes in these productions and combines them with isolated perversions of justice reported on the news and, as a result, trashes the entire justice system. We should be on guard against these exaggerations. Certainly there are lawyers who fit the negative roles which are routinely played out on TV and in the theaters. However, the reality is much more honorable.

All 23 civil cases against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. related to the 2011 listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupe it sold have been settled out of court.
Another 40 civil cases filed against the Kroger Co. by its customers or relatives of customers who died in the outbreak are still pending in state and federal courts, said food safety attorney Bill Marler.
Details of Wal-Mart's settlements are not public record. The individuals who are receiving payments were required to agree to not reveal financial or other details of the settlements.
"We're pleased that both sides could come together to resolve the case," said Marler, who is representing 46 of the 66 people who have filed civil cases in relation to the listeria outbreak linked to cantaloupe from Jensen Farms, Holly, Colo.
"While we can't discuss the details or terms of the (Wal-Mart) settlement, we are pleased with the resolution which was in everyone's best interest."
Wal-Mart's national director of media relations Randy Hargrove also declined to discuss details of the settlements.
"We're happy that both sides could resolve the cases. We can't discuss the details or terms of the settlement, however we are pleased with the resolution which was in everyone's best interest," said Hargrove.
The retailer is filing notices of settlement in the individual courts where the 23 cases were filed.
Marler said by settling the cases, Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart is out of the picture as far as the victims' lawsuits are concerned.
The retailer had filed cross-claims against other parties, including distributor Frontera Produce and food safety auditor Primus Group Inc., but those cross claims no longer apply since Wal-Mart reached settlements with the plaintiffs in the cases.
Those plaintiffs have claims pending against other parties, including Jensen Farms and owners Eric and Ryan Jensen, Primus, Frontera and retailers that sold the cantaloupe. The Jensen brothers also have a federal case pending against the food safety auditing company.
The listeria outbreak killed 33 people and sickened another 147 in 28 states, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Another 10 people who died were infected with the same subtypes of listeria responsible for the outbreak, but the CDC reported local health officials did not indicate listeria as the cause of death on those death certificates.
