.- Archbishop Rafael Romo Munoz of Tijuana, Mexico has confirmed the death of Father Salvador Ruiz Enciso, who disappeared on May 22.
The archbishop expressed his "profound sorrow and dismay" to the entire Church in Tijuana over the priest's murder. He called on authorities to find those responsible and bring them to justice.
On May 23 police found the decomposed body of a man with his feet and hands bound. DNA tests confirmed the remains were of Fr. Enciso.
Archbishop Romo Munoz condemned "the brutal manner in which his life was taken" in a May 27 statement.
"We pray God will grant heartfelt repentance and conversion to those responsible so that they will receive forgiveness," he added.
Fr. Enciso was known for his humility and selfless commitment to his ministry. He was affectionately remembered by the Catholics he served as an upright man of God.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Rocky 4!
Facts about Rocky 4
- Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
- Color: White - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Rocky 4's Info...
I am already neutered, purebred, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, not good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Rocky is an 8 year old broken coated male who is a devoted and loyal Jack Russell Terrier. No dogs (terrified), no cats, no kids, Rocky would like a home where he does not have to walk near cars as he is petrified of them, quiet walks would please him so.
Rocky loves to play ball forever and will snuggle and love you forever more. Sweet loving Jack Russell Terrier in need of a quiet home where he can just be adored.
Other Pets at Russell Refuge, Inc
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Rocky 4, a Rhinebeck Jack Russell Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Jack Russell Terrier for sale in Rhinebeck, or seeking a Jack Russell Terrier dog from a breeder in Rhinebeck.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Rhinebeck already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Rhinebeck breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Jack Russell Terrier breeders who help with Jack Russell Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Rhinebeck paves the way for another one to be saved.

Please see the attachment first
I want to create a command which has a effect,
First, the user is prompted to select the line,
Second, the program execute and determine, find the key points
Finally, fix this line, let the distance from the right end point of line to circleis right just 1.
If there is no solution, then the situation becomes simpler, only the case2: the line connect the circle, perhaps easier
Note: The line and the circle in different layer
I have this idea, but do not know how to make it true, is there anyone has some suggestion?
Sample code is my favorite.
Sincere thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved! by SENL1362. See the answer in context.
Start studying the Selection functions. There are piles of examples.
Search for ed.GetEntity, ed.GetSelection, ed.Select
Yes, I know how to use GetSelection() to get LineObject and the endpoint of LineObject,
But I am thinking of how to let the program know which of endpoints distance more closer to the circle by select the line only, the circle isn't be selected.
It's meanI have knew how to access the property of this line, but now my question is there some way will be able to determine which one of the endpoints more distance closer to the circle only by select this line
The program can try or search the near entity of this line, it's just like a radiolocator..
Uh, I don't want to select anyting except the line, so the question becomes more complicated
If there is some method can only rely on the selected line, then the program automatically sacnning the near entity of the line just like a radiolocator, and then determine which endpoint is more closer to the specific entity, It's will be a prefect way…
You already knew the selection methodes, so time to show you alternatives:
Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Database db = doc.Database; Editor ed = doc.Editor; using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { BlockTable bt = (BlockTable)db.BlockTableId.GetObject(OpenMode.ForRead); BlockTableRecord btr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(db.CurrentSpaceId, OpenMode.ForWrite); BlockTableRecord ptr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(bt[BlockTableRecord .PaperSpace], OpenMode.ForRead); BlockTableRecord mtr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(bt[BlockTableRecord .ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForRead); IEnumerable<ObjectId> myEnumerable = mtr.Cast<ObjectId>(); List<ObjectId> modelObjectIds = myEnumerable.ToList(); ed.WriteMessage("\n{0} Number of Modelspace entities", modelObjectIDs.Count); //All Lines or Polylines List<ObjectId> entIDs = modelObjectIds.Where(id => id.ObjectClass.DxfName.ToUpper() == "LINE" || id.ObjectClass.DxfName.ToUpper() == "LWPOLYLINE").ToList<ObjectId>(); foreach (ObjectId entID in entIDs) { Entity theEnt = (Entity)trans.GetObject(entID, OpenMode.ForRead); ed.WriteMessage("\n" + entID.ObjectClass.DxfName + ", " + theEnt.GetType().ToString() + ", " + theEnt.Handle.ToString() + ", " + theEnt.Layer.ToString()); } tr.Commit(); }
Youre circles can be listed using the following:
List<ObjectId> theCircles = modelObjectIds.Where(id => id.ObjectClass.DxfName.ToUpper() == "CIRCLE"
Then distances of the endpoints of the selected line to the circle.Centre - the circle.Radius.
Ah, I think, in fact, I just need to get the intersection of two objects,
First, select the first object only and then use SelectCrossingPolygon () or other methods get the selectsets, then step though the selectsets ,then get the second specified object, and then get their intersection point
But, how to get a intersection point between a line with another object, or the intersection point of the extension cord?
Which class privide a method get the intersection point between object?
Did you know?
Very Thanks.

Last weekend, I participated in the Global Day of Action for Occupy Wall Street by being present at Occupy Los Angeles and marching to City Hall. I also spent a good deal of time doing "protest chaplaincy" of a sort: because I was wearing my vestments, many people approached me for conversation, pastoral care, and even prayer. I tried to be proactive and seek out others to talk to as well. I also took some time to enjoy myself as well by partaking in some "Buddhist fellowship" with one of my UWest students, Joseph Rogers of Against the Stream, and his lovely family (including his brilliantly talented wife Sarit).
In addition — and much to my amazement — I ended up being quoted and written about in CNN.com's feature on the Global Day of Action, which you can read here.
I also wrote a dharma talk for the occasion and recorded it at home. It is posted below. (I had meant to record the talk from the event itself…but I had my hands full being a Buddhist chaplain, and that seemed much more important.)
Several Buddhist teachers have commented on the Occupy movement, and there have been many good "round-up" pieces in the Buddhist blogosphere. (Just today, in fact, Tricycle did one.) I'm slowly catching up on all of them. I especially loved my e-pal Bodhipaksa's piece for Wildmind. I wish I'd looked at it before I did mine — we both talked about the Kutadanta Sutta as it turns out. Though we both say different things about the text, I would have picked a different sutta had I seen Bodhipaksa's piece before I wrote mine: my commentary on the Kutadanta Sutta only suffers in comparison to his. Make sure you read it.
Another piece that is also definitely a must-read is David Loy's "Waking Up from the Nightmare: Buddhist Reflections on Occupy Wall Street" for our friends at Shambhala Sun Space. Do take a look at that one too.
All right, enough stalling… Here's my talk:
- "5 Facts You Should Know About the Wealthiest One Percent of Americans" by Zaid Jilani for Alternet.
- "The Bankers and the Revolutionaries" by Nicholas Kristof for The New York Times.
- "Alan Grayson: The Best 2 Minutes On Why We Should All #OccupyWallStreet" at MoveOn.Org.
- "Poverty in the United States: Frequently Asked Questions" at the National Poverty Center | University of Michigan.
- "The Kutadanta Sutta: On True Sacrifice" translated by T. W. Rhys Davids at the Buddhist Publication Society.
- "An American Autumn: A Yom Kippur Meditation" by James Ishmael Ford for Monkey Mind.

John Grego, 02/10/2007
I have been scouting Red Bluff Road the past couple weekends to see if I could put together a nice hike--this is mostly a report on my February 10 trip. Starting out on the firebreak, I ran into a fire crew from Cumberland Gap and Great Smokies who were making plans for a controlled burn sometime soon. I continued down the firebreak to the fourth obvious logging road (this is the first one marked on John Cely's map heading from South Cedar Creek Road) and turned south to a grassy landing on Cedar Creek. From there, I've made two attempts to follow Cedar Creek downstream, but got turned back last weekend by high water, and ran out of time today. The small guts and drainages on John Cely's map can turn out to be major obstacles!
On the way back, I followed the south side of the gut to Clear Lake; I noted the cypress on Cely's map, and also saw another substantial cypress a bit farther northeast. I flushed some turkey vultures from the ground--they were feeding on a small pig (I have a picture, but it's nothing you'd want to feature on a webpage). Later on, I was investigating a slough that had some Wood Ducks in it, and flushed black vultures off another dead pig.
There was no shortage of birds--I must have seen over 20 Winter Wrens, with at least two singing their full songs. I also saw three Black-and-white Warblers, two Blue-headed Vireos, lots of Pileated Woodpeckers, many Hermit Thrush and 4 Barred Owls (and heard at least 6 more). In addition, I also saw a Hooded Merganser on both this trip and my earlier trip.
I have included photos of some wonderful bark beetle patterns, the large cypress I observed, and a beaver stump (I actually saw another stump just like this one--I had to check to make sure it wasn't the same tree).

"quality of paper and printing was what I was looking for. The price was comparable if not better than other sites I have ordered similar products from."
"I got these labels as a promotion, I was not expecting much because of this, but I was pleasantly surprised. The design, photo and color quality were very nice."
"Love these address labels because the design was so cute. They were the perfect finishing touch for my baby shower invitations and I would highly recommend them!"
"We bought these so that our newborn baby would have return address labels for all of the thank you cards. They are so cute. The only negative is that the socks are cut off on the right side."
"These were super cute for our birth announcement labels and look just the way I expected, great quality and fast arrival!"

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.–Third-quarter net income for Dillard's rose 80 percent to $14.4 million, thanks to the retailer's efforts and inventory and expense controls.
Controls on inventory, which for comparable stores declined 2 percent, helped push up gross margin by 190 basis points to 36.3 percent. Advertising, selling, administrative and general expenses edged down 0.9 percent on a dollar basis. These factors helped offset a reduction of 1.1 percent in net sales, which finished the quarter (which ended Oct. 30) at $1.3 billion.
William T. Dillard II, Dillard's chief executive officer, said the third-quarter performance "reflects our continuing and firm resolve to effectively manage and improve inventory, to control expenses and to seek the best uses for our strong cash flow."

Review: Larry Gus 'Years Not Living' Album
Larry Gus is not his real name; he started out making drum and bass, and hip hop; and his new album Years Not Living (out now) sounds loosely like something out of the West Coast beat scene. Yet, the Milan-based Greek multi- instrumentalist is presently and perfectly at home on DFA, New York's post-everything dance/rock hub.
Adopting his Larry Gus alias from a pun on the Greek term for larynx, Panagiotis Melidis puts his voice through its paces, veering from manly mumbles to androgynous falsettos. Inspired by nature and surreal literature, his style swings from melodic and ethereal on "Eternal and Ephemeral", polyrhythmic and exotic on "Merely Today", psychedelic and prog rock on "Pericles", to fuzzy, distorted twee pop on "In Violet Ink (Misprints)", and Matthew Dear-ish ambient grooves on the lead single, "The Night Patrol (A Man Asleep)". As frenetic as this short list sounds, it's but a fraction of more than 80 tracks that Gus allegedly sifted through for the final track list.
Altogether, it makes for an ambitious, if uneven, foray into sound sculpting reminiscent of the Avalanches' sample mania, FaltyDL's sunny funk, and Caribou's dusty jazz. While there is nothing on Years Not Living as angular as LCD Soundsytem, as euphoric as The Juan MacLean, or as stylistically consistent as Factory Floor, Gus's bounty of ideas makes it easy to see why it would make DFA's collective ears twitch. And they're not alone. The video for "The Night Patrol (A Man Asleep)" features Bradford Cox of art-rockers Deerhunter, and Gus will be touring with indie dance favorites Cut Copy. It should make for an interesting dance floor.

Bought this today at a J & P outlet. It's not a J & P mini rose. Any idea what it's called. The tags were all the same on every color. Pretty rose.

Well someone steered me to the Parade site and it looks like it is Rosita, but on the Heirloom site it really resembles Ring of Fire. Either way, it's a pretty mini. |

People across the country endured extreme weather conditions this weekend.
Tropical Storm Karen started the weekend in the Gulf, but then fizzled out. That was a relief to stormy-weary residents, who prepared for the worst.
But it was a different story for people in Wayne, Neb., who saw an EF-4 tornado rip through homes, businesses, and an airport.
"You never think it's going to be you and it was us this time," one Nebraska resident told ABC News.
In South Dakota, residents saw a record-breaking blizzard. The early storm dumped as much as four feet of snow.
"I wish it would have waited a little longer," South Dakota resident Jaime Hockett told reporters. "A little too early for me to have this bout of winter."
People in Kentucky saw extreme flooding. And in California, massive brush fires came dangerously close to Los Angeles freeways and forced evacuations at Camp Pendleton.

Bemis, Willy
Professor and John M. Kingsbury Director of Shoals Marine Laboratory
In my role as Kingsbury Director of Shoals Marine Laboratory, I work to provide the best possible undergraduate courses and research internships at our facility on Appledore Island, Maine. With a 40-year track record of educational excellence, SML is working to increase both the breadth and depth of it curriculum to provide todayÕs students with topical and relevant experiences in marine science, sustainability, and conservation. During our 13-week operating season each summer, we offer more than 20 courses for college credit ranging from A Marine Approach to Introductory Biology to Field Marine Science, Diversity of Fishes, Ecology of Animal Behavior, Biological Illustration, Lobster Biology, and Forensics for Marine Biologists. More than 200 undergraduates participate annually in our courses and internships. We also offer adult and family education programs. For additional information and current course offerings, please visit: http://www.sml.cornell.edu/.

Streaky regular season ends with a win in Syracuse
Lose five in a row. Win five in a row. I tweeted after the game that a win is a win and I believe that, but I still feel like this game and this season had missed opportunities. I didn't love the gameplan but it worked well enough. I know Tranq is likely to retire, but I hope this isn't our offense of the future. Do we really need to give any RB 40+ carries? But my big picture discussion of our coaching and approach will wait until later this week.
I am on the road Sunday, so I don't know if I will have my second viewing thoughts up late Sunday or some time on Monday. I may have a smaller post before then on Saturday night/Sunday morning.

BC HOT HOUSE: Mike Reed (left), president of BC Hot House, Langley, British Columbia, shows off a 1.5-pound club pack of Blushers pink cherry-type tomatoes. The top-seal package is resealable, uses at least 20% less packaging and extends the shelf life, he says. In coming months, BC Hot House plans to convert all of its packs to the top seal. The greenhouse grower is working to reduce packaging even further, says Ravi Cheema, a grower and board member.

5 Interesting and captivating.LewisT24 | 26/01/2009 | See all LewisT24's reviews (1)I firstly feel the need to say that the individual who gave this dvd 3 stars is lame, and that is not just due to a contrast in opinion.The whole idea of a documentary is not to sell a country. In fact, most good documentaries don't sell anything. Not all tv is commercial rubbish. This documentary in particular, i couldn't respect stephen fry more for doing it.America is a country that some people have very narrow minded opinions about. It is not all fake, disneyworld and beaches, and nyc. There is some gorgeous landscape, huge diversity and a range of cultures throughought each state. No, this series doesn't make america to be the perfect place to live, but it gives a very realistic viewpoint on state-wide america, and that's what i want out of a documentary. Even if it wasn't all positive, i still want to go to each state, more than i ever have before.I quite like stephen fry, not a huge fan, but i do enjoy this series, very much so.
5 Another Brilliant Fry-ism!MajorLiggs | 10/01/2009 | See all MajorLiggs's reviews (25)I can't beleive someone earlier rated this a 1. Obviously someone with no intelligence nor marvels at the brilliance of Stephen Fry! A brilliant series with Fry. I hope he does more continents.
3 Steven Fry in Americasheba4567 | 19/11/2008 | See all sheba4567's reviews (17)I found that this series was quite boreing, Steven is a very intelectual man and at times his illness ( which I have ) showed by putting himself down and lacked confidence. The series seemed to be a conquest of all the states as fast as possible, focusing on issues which would not sell USA to me. Maybe if he had talked to Michael Palin and Alan Whicker he could have portrayed the series in a better way. This in no way is a slant on a very clever man, who like me gives over a strong sense of lack of confidence, the idea of these travel documentaries are to sell the country to the public, nice try Steven, I admire your courage, maybe if the series had been twice as long and spent more time on more interesting subjects. Never did find out how he broke his arm and suddenly its better again
4 The national treasures gets his own series but its too shortCrysis2142 | 16/12/2008 | See all Crysis2142's reviews (68)Top 100 Music Reviewer Top 100 Tickets Reviewer Stephen Fry is a funny man, and very knowledgable but 6 hours to go through 50 plus states is just not enough, the bbc really diltued this series. Still it was very interesting and focused on some strange aspects of america like a 50,000 capacity stadium for an (american) football game.Its a good series but not something i would desire on dvd. If you like stephen fry then this is worth it, if not, let it pass.
4 Decent Viewing Of A Huge Countrybenno14 | 15/12/2008 | See all benno14's reviews (77)I really enjoyed watching this the last few nights. I have been to America many times and seen a small part of it. It is amazing that he made it to all 50 states. He went to some unusual places and did not do many of the typical sights or tourist spots. He also had to breeze through very quickly as the series is only 6 hours. It was still very enjoyable, he is very interesting to listen to and I will certainly buy the book. If you are interested in America you will see parts of it, learn some history and experience Stephen Fry's wit. I would say he is a talented man and well done to him and the BBC.

ARCCA: Supporting the Research Community
One of the key support activities provided by ARCCA staff is responding to the variety of support calls and queries raised by the user community. This is accomplished using the JIRA ticketing system to monitor support calls (hosted by INSRV). JIRA is a highly customisable and inexpensive system that never loses track of support requests. It works well as a help-desk and support ticket system because one can:
- Customise JIRA according to existing support practices.
- Easily keep track of tickets and people.
- Use JIRA as both your support ticket and issue tracker.
Users currently use the mail address: email@example.com to log a support call about all ARCCA activities, including both Merlin and Condor services.
The statistics presented in Figures 1 and 2 are indicative of the types and numbers of calls handled by ARCCA staff, but are not comprehensive, as a number of "1-on-1" queries are still received which do not get logged in JIRA.
User queries per month
Figure 1. User queries to ARCCA during 2010.
Figure 1 shows the number of support queries received during 2010, with an average of 40 calls per month. When combined with the information in Figure 2 below (the type of query) it shows, not surprisingly, that many of the questions are short term (less than 1 day to resolve) regarding e.g. account requests, installation of software, or "How do I" type questions. Recent service amendments have caused a slight increase in the "How do I" type questions and "Bug Reports".
It should be noted when a user experiences a problem on Merlin or Condor this is currently captured under "Bug Report" or "Work Request" – a new category of call relating to "User Problem" will be introduced, which provides a more accurate reflection of the service call. Also, due to restrictions of call category, all project ID requests are captured under account requests.
Many of the medium term (2-3 days to resolve) questions received during this reporting period, were more to do with the established Condor service, although there has been an increase in the number associated with additional functionality, and in-depth software installation requests for Merlin.
There continues to be an increase in "How do I" style questions over the last couple of months, with users wanting to improve their usage of the technology – in particular modifying job submission scripts to improve efficiency. Holiday periods are reflected, with the number of calls falling in December and April.
Types of query
Figure 2. Relative proportion of query types received by the ARCCA team.
There are still a small, but growing number of outstanding calls in the JIRA system, primarily focussed on the Merlin system. Many of these are more in-depth software requests which are being investigated. Any call which cannot be resolved is escalated to Bull, to utilise remaining fast-start credits. It should also be noted that a small number of calls remain open as these are awaiting user confirmation that the fault has been satisfactorily resolved.
User Queries: Resource-based over last 12 months
Figure 3. JIRA summary of the user tickets received by the ARCCA team.
The breakdown of support calls over the two main services provided by ARCCA – the Condor pool and Merlin cluster – is shown in figure 3, with Merlin accounting for ca. 64% of the queries, consistent with the size of the user communities, and the relative maturity of both services. The increase in Merlin support calls over the last quarter of 2010, is primarily due to the migration to project based accountancy, and associated queries.

TUCSON, Ariz. – February 20, 2014 – The top-ranked Department of Management Information Systems (MIS) at the UA Eller College of Management has been awarded a $10,000 grant to launch a program aimed at promoting diversity in the fields of information technology and computer science.
The grant is an Academic Alliance Seed Fund Award by the National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT). The fund is supported by Microsoft Research.
The UA project, headed by Paulo Goes (department head and Salter Distinguished Professor in Management and Technology) and Gondy Leroy (associate professor of MIS) approaches the challenge of promoting workplace diversity through awareness-building among the next generation of leaders.
"This isn't just about attracting women to the field," said Leroy, a longtime member of NCWIT and leader in initiatives to do just that. "It's about reaching a group that's been missed so far – future managers and leaders of all backgrounds who need to be equipped to counter the problems and leverage the benefits of diversity as they prepare to join the working world."
"It's extremely important that students be exposed as early as possible, and as often as possible, to diversity-related initiatives," said Goes. "This project will deliver a series of activities that will provide future IT leaders with the awareness to manage and lead a diverse workforce."
The program is structured to include a learning phase, with guest speakers, and a practical phase, with students applying their knowledge to team challenges proposed by partner corporations Raytheon and Walmart.
"Students who participate in the practical challenge will receive a certificate of completion," Leroy said. "The team with the most successful solution will be invited to attend a major conference, the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing." The 2014 conference is scheduled for October in Phoenix.
"The MIS department will also create a one-credit course for undergraduate and graduate students aimed at providing hands-on experience with diversity-related projects," said Goes. "This course is a natural extension of our existing course structure, and will be an ongoing option for students so that we can sustain diversity training in the long term."The Eller College of Management at the University of Arizona is internationally recognized for pioneering research, innovative curriculum, distinguished faculty, excellence in management information systems, entrepreneurship, and social responsibility. U.S. News & World Report ranks the Eller undergraduate program No. 11 among public business schools and two of its programs are among the top 20 — Entrepreneurship and MIS. U.S. News & World Report ranks the Eller MBA Full-Time program No. 48 in the U.S. In addition to a Full-Time MBA program, the Eller College offers the No. 25-ranked Evening MBA program, the Eller Executive MBA and the Online MBA. The Eller College of Management supports more than 5,800 undergraduate and 800 graduate students on the UA campus in beautiful Tucson, Arizona, and on its satellite campus in downtown Phoenix.

Leonard Cohen's Jukebox
Biggest Influence on My Music – The jukebox. I lived beside jukeboxes all through the fifties. … I never knew who was singing. I never followed things that way. I still don't. I wasn't a student of music; I was a student of the restaurant I was in — and the waitresses. The music was a part of it. I knew what number the song was.
- Leonard Cohen (Yakety Yak by Scott Cohen, 1994)
Leonard Cohen's Jukebox: Over the years, Leonard Cohen has mentioned a handful of specific songs he favors. Leonard Cohen's Jukebox is a Heck Of A Guy feature that began collecting these tunes for the edification and entertainment of viewers on April 4, 2009. All posts in the Leonard Cohen's Jukebox series can be found at the Leonard Cohen's Jukebox Page.
Leonard Cohen On Joe Cocker: "That man is one of the best singers the world has ever seen"
From Bård Oses intervju med Leonard Cohen by Linn Gjerstad (BA: March 26, 2012) in Google Translation:
I am always intrigued when someone else record my songs. Especially if they are in foreign languages. I have heard my songs in Finnish, Japanese and Polish. Incredible. But Joe Cocker's version of "Bird on a Wire" is my favorite. That man is one of the best singers the world has ever seen.

PARIS (AP) - Alberto Contador took it in stride when, unexpectedly, the Danish national anthem echoed on the Champs-Elysees in celebration of the Spaniard's Tour de France victory.
Tour organizers were tipped off by his older brother, Fran, that the wrong anthem was played at the Tour awards ceremony after Sunday's race finish, Contador's spokesman said.
"For us, it is just an anecdote. It's no big deal," spokesman Jacinto Vidarte said by telephone.
Organizers sought to rectify the problem by playing Spain's anthem when Contador's Astana team was recognized on the podium.

Pat Sullivan: Tales of meth for masturbation, gay porn in bust of ex-Arapahoe sheriff (VIDEO)
Disconnects are common in the Pat Sullivan story -- first due to the contrast between his former image as a nationally recognized Arapahoe County sheriff and allegations that he traded meth for sex, and now as a result of his first court appearance, in which the little old man tottering toward the bench with assistance from a cane seemed far too frail to have engaged in the activities for which he's been accused. And the creepy details keep coming.Sullivan's mug.
As we've reported, Sullivan became Arapahoe County sheriff in 1984, and rose to icon status five years later, when TV news cameras caught him rescuing a deputy held hostage by a double murderer. In 1999, his reputation was further enhanced in the wake of the slayings at Columbine High School, leading to his naming as national sheriff of the year. After retiring from his gig in 2002, he became director of safety and security for the Cherry Creek School District -- a position he held for the next six years.
Since then, Sullivan faded from the public eye. But according to a probable cause affidavit on view below, he's been busy lately. On October 4, the document states, Arapahoe County deputies received a call about an "unwanted male party" at a home in Centennial. According to CBS4, the home in question provides shelter for recovering addicts -- and apparently, some of them wanted the man later identified as Sullivan to hit the highway.CBS4 Pat Sullivan in court yesterday.
Just shy of a month later, on November 13, members of the South Metro Drug Task Force were told by a pair of confidential informants that they would "definitely" be able to obtain meth from Sullivan in exchange for "sexual acts" -- something they said they'd done before. Shortly thereafter, a series of phone calls and text messages led to a planned rendezvous in Aurora.
The affidavit notes that the home was outfitted with audio and video equipment prior to the planned meeting. That gear later recorded Sullivan handing the source a packet that tested positive for meth in the bedroom of the house. Sullivan also had a second bag of meth on his person when cops swooped in and took him into custody.
In the wake of the arrest, a search of Sullivan's home was conducted, with what's described as a large quantity of gay pornography being seized. Meanwhile, Jonathan Elinoff, a producer for embattled KHOW host Tom Martino, provided law enforcement and CBS4 with videotape of an interview conducted with one William Hadley, who said he and Sullivan had shared drugs and more plenty of times in the past.
"I mean we've sat at Cheesman Park in his (Sullivan's) SUV and smoked the fuck out of a lot of dope," Hadley said. He added that he'd masturbated in front of Sullivan at the former sheriff's request -- and he wasn't the only one. A second man interviewed by Elinoff claimed that Sullivan buys addicts drugs "in order for them to take their clothes off. That's the power he has over them, their addiction."
Oh yeah: Current Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson confirms to CBS4 that his office is looking into the possibility that Sullivan is HIV-positive. If that proves to be true, additional charges related to knowingly exposing others to the malady could be forthcoming. Perhaps that's why Sullivan's bond was increased from $250,000 to $500,000. He continues to cool his heels in the Patrick J. Sullivan Detention Facility -- the jail named for him.

Cleaning up. Looking for a good place to donate computers. Alferd (Andy) had quite the collection of computers and devices in his office which he dubbed the "Nuclear Reactor." I found a good home for a couple of historic ones selling on eBay and donating the money to charity. That's too much work. The rest mostly range in age from 10 to 3 years. There are twenty one whole computers left, and various carcasses, plus boxes of parts like cards and CD drives and hard drives and keyboards, mice. Is there any place other than Interconnection.org to make donations that will go to good cause? He would have wanted them to go to a charitable cause or some organization that teaches technical computer repair skill, or repairs computers to donate. Thanks.

Son Is Crawling Now - and Getting into Everything!
My little guy just turned 8 months. He started crawling about a week ago....and now he is terrorizing my dog and getting into everything he shouldn't. I have noticed that he is starting to get a little stubborn- and kind of does what he wants now. I knew this day would come- but I guess it seems a little early for me cause he is growing so fast! He crawls and tries to do a pushup and it is always on the CERAMIC tile and he has already fell once. We are in the process of getting a gated area set up for him but that could be weeks from now. He cries when he doesnt get his way and when we put him in the playpen he plays for awhile but then he gets cranky. IT seems like he is always fussing- and we do not hold him all the time- I promise.
I work from home- and now I can only work when he sleeps cause I am always chasing him around.... I was just curious how early did yall start trying to enforce what no means and to keep him from hurting himself did anyone discipline this early? (only lightly tapping hand is what I am referring to- not spanking of course.- to keep him from busting his face on the fireplace or pinching his fingers on the coffee table) He rolls over and tries to crawl away from me when I change is diaper- that is new too....It is so funny cause I had someone tell me- you spend all this time trying to get them to crawl - and then when they do you are like "what was I thinking!". I love him to pieces- but I guess I just need to know if this is normal for him to be challenging me at such an early age- if I should wait it out or try to nip it in the bud :).
So What Happened?™
Thank you all for the wonderful advice. I am still waiting to get the gated area set up for him. I think I was just stressed because it was still so new with him being mobile and all. So far I am mostly just redirecting and trying the alternate words. But it is getting easier not to freak out every time he pulls up on something and falls over. I do appreciate the many responses I received!

That's too funny! My little guy started crawling too and he's 8 months. Yeah he's into everything but I let him "explore". I have everything "baby proof" and if there is something that he shouldnt get a hold of then I put it up. I rarely say no.He has no clue what's right or wrong at this age. He will learn quickly if he piches his fingers that maybe he shouldnt do that or bump his head. They learn. I know mine has learn a lot since he's been crawling! Good Luck to ya and just watch and see his reactions on the new things he gets to explore. I learned that with my first child!! If you continue to say no they are going to continue to find out why you say no so.....yeah! It's tough but you'll get through it! Oh yeah, mine's a "hip baby" also! I'm enjoying it while I can!

B.T. answers from Houston on June 11, 2008
Good Luck my son is 10 1/2 months and we are going through the same thing, he dislikes diaper changes. It seems like he changed over night and woke up stubborn. We already enforce the word no and he understands.

Start enforcing NO now or before you know it you will have a out of control toddler. When they are old enough to reason what they want then they are old enough to understand rules. I never put stuff out of reach or gated my entire house. I made my home safe but did not go to extremes, my son just learned no and did very well. If you pack up everything and let him have free roam of your house, you will never visit anyone out of fear of destruction. Just make NO clear and do not give in. Good luck.

M.S. answers from San Antonio on June 10, 2008
One thing I learned after two babies doing the "changing table squirm"...is I put a basket of things they never got to see except at changing time next to the changing table. Weird items, I looked in my kitchen gadget drawer (a small whisk, egg separator, an ice cream scoop, a small light wooden roller, plastic measuring spoons, etc...) Who knew a pasta measurer would be so entertaining?? Or you can just use toys they don't see any other time.
Good luck...{{{{hugs}}}}

S.O. answers from Houston on June 11, 2008
K., Your little guy is normal. I'm glad to see that there are so many people on here that know to let their child explore and just put everything up. It sends your baby a bad message when we are always telling them no, because we want to make sure they are disciplined. The best thing to do is put everything that is breakable up for a while, or anything they can hurt themselves with. When we slap their hands and tell them no they thing they are in trouble for trying to learn about the world around them. You want your child to feel trusted by you. That gives them a sence that you trust them to reach the sky!!!! Invest in one of those kits that has the covers for the outlets, plastics for corners, they even make them for fireplaces now, and latches for the cabinets. I had a few gates but also the fence, I had it around the computer, and as one person said I had to use it around the Christmas tree too. I also used it to put him in when I was getting things in and out of the oven or cleaning bathrooms or something. I had fixed one of my lower kitchen cabinets with tupperware bowls, wooden spoons, and a couple of pots and lids, they love the noice. Good luck and you'll see how interesting this year can be because when they start pulling up then walking you'll see a whole new world of things he can get into and then your re-child proofing. Its funny really because its like their minds come off of the floor and into table level and they forget about the stuff at crawling level. Good luck and enjoy it really goes by fast.

N.E. answers from San Antonio on June 11, 2008
Just wait until he starts walking!! Get a handle on it now, or he will develop habits-- running from you in public places, climbing stairs, the dog, the furniture, etc.--that will become harder to deal with as he grows. My daughter is now 15 months old and we went through something similar. I found the book "BabyWise" to be very helpful. Now is a good time to introduce "NO" and "STOP". It seems harsh,but, they are simple commands that keep our kids safe and provide boundaries. With cosistent effort on your part he will come around in no time. Our daughter still tests the water but we've noticed that she will often think about touching a forbidden object, etc. before she does it. Then, aloud, she will tell herself "No" and walk away. Also, at diaper time when your guy is getting squirmy and restless ask him to "help" mommy. Also, give him something to hold in his hand as a distraction. I would tell my little girl that diaper change is first then she can have her book, have time outside, what ever it is that she'd rather be doing.
Hope this bit of advice is helpful.

J.B. answers from Houston on June 10, 2008
Well I think he is right at the time that he can begin to understand no, but we mostly did the redirect method at that age and boy will that keep you on your toes! We had the same issue with the fireplace and my son fell and busted his head kind of hard one time and he never really messed with it again! Not my preference of course, but he is just fine. So I really have no special advice except they learn by experience and the TV seems to be the most fascinating thing on the planet when they start to pull up! But the payoff is that they are so darn cute:) My boy just took his first steps so I am sure we are about to launch into a new phase of watching, chasing, and rescuing! I wish you all the best and I think a light tap on the hand is just fine. ;)

D.L. answers from Austin on June 11, 2008
consider yourself lucky mine was 6 months and walking by 8 months!YIKES Now is definately the time to start enforcing things, That is exactly what I did and compared to a lot of people I know We get tons of compliments on how well behaved my 16 month old is. And for the rolling over and fighting a diaper a tap under the tush just like the one on the fingers should do the trick, usually once is all it takes, and stand firm and dont give up yeah it seems like it may take forever but they do come around. Stick to the play pen and maybe try an indoor play yard (like the ones that have 6-8 panels. If you look on craigs list you can get the 8 panel for around 50 when new they are around 90+ .. Good luck and if you stick with it now you will have a wonderfully great and impressive little guy by around a year old!

T.R. answers from San Antonio on June 11, 2008
Completely NORMAL!!! My daughter started @ 6 months with no sign if interest. She would not roll over or even move and then one afternoon I was cleaning the upstairs bath room and had her laying on her back on the floor in one of those mats with all those things on top. I am paranoid when it comes to her so I would check on her every couple of minutes. I checked on her and then ran to the walk in closet to get a towel when I heard her dad clapping and saying ALRIGHT BABY GIRL. It freaked me out because he was supposes to be @ work and 2 he sounded like he was not close by. When I walked out of the bathroom the baby was not in her play area but she was outside of the room right @ the foot of the stairs. She crawled all the way over there! Her father said that when he came in the house he saw her crawling and that's why he got so excited. Just to think what if he would not have walked in when he did she could have fallen down the stairs. Ever since then she has been on a rampage and will not pull back.
She is now 16 months and running around all over the place and still does not listen. I started the disciplining early as well more for her safety then for control. What I found that works it pulling the baby way and having them look at you when you say no. If I do that to her she would go back once or twice and I would do the same thing and then she will lose interest and go play with something else. I didn't get a gated area just because I wanted her to feel free and explore on her own. I did put gates on the stairs though. I did do the tapping on the hand and said no no no no. I also told her why I was saying no. When she got older and I knew she knew better I would tap her on her diaper just once and say no. I would not yell at her though it would be in a normal voice but with a MAD face expression. That is important because if you are telling him no but laugh he will think it is funny and keep doing it but if you tell him no and have a mad look he knows then that something is wrong. Well good luck to you and enjoy it because they do get big fast and you can not get your little baby back.
I started crying when she went to the potty the first time ( 3 days ago) because I think it is too early. She is my first and only!

J.K. answers from Austin on June 11, 2008
This is very normal and you must remember that the way he learns and develops his intelligence is by exploring his world. That said, you need to teach him to respond to "no', or possibly iuse the word "freeze" when he gets into a dangerous situation that you must disentangle him from -ie.- climbing up a bookcase, or bumping into the fireplace. He will also, unfortunately have to learn a little by experience. He will learn that it hurts to bump into the fireplace and he will stop doing it. Be grateful that he is developing so normally asnd treasure these times. They grow up so fast and you will suddenly look around and he will be thirty with a family of his own. Then, you will be going through it all over again with your grandkids. They will ,however, not be so full time. I know that working at home with a very active baby must be very difficult. Is there any way you could hire someone to come in for periods of time during the day to play with your son? Also, perhaps you could swap with a friend who has a child of about the same age and take turns watching the kids. You can work during the days that your child is away. Good luck. J. K.

Hi all - Finally we are in the real hunting stages for our bathroom redo and I could use some advice please -
Specifically we are looking for a 6 foot 36 inch wide center drain drop in soaker. Have seen and sat in various ones and the acrylic seems so flimsy, my husband is a big guy and he wasn't happy with it at all. Are the fiberglass reenforced ones a better option? Or does it have more to do with how the tub is installed, with use of supporting material etc. We are trying to avoid heavier materials due to weight concerns. Just pricing out tubs I saw this brand Aqua Glass online at the US Lowes site, Anyone have an opinion on this brand (or recommendations for a better one ) I don't think I have seen it here in Toronto Ontario so don't know about it. If it turns out to be okay the prices seem good I could go to Buffalo to get it. We can get a lot of cool stuff here but the variety and prices in general seem much better in the US ;-) Thanks and sorry for the long message! Leslie |

I have two Aquaglas units in my house, but they are both acrylic. Acrylic seems much thicker, sturdier to me than fiberglass. We installed a one piece, no seams, in DH's bathroom about 18 years ago - looks as good as new. It also has the dome top with swing-out door with fixed side panels. I have an old one pice tub/shower combo that is about 30 years old (harvest gold - dont' laugh). It is still in immaculate condition. Will be updating that soon with another acrylic shower. Will probably go with AquaGlas again. I will point out that the one's I have looked at in bathroom fixture stores are much better quality than those at Lowe's - but they cost more also. It is recommended by the pros to put a mortar bed under the units, but I know that we did not. DH says he thinks they put some 2 x 4 type braces under ours. Regardless, even not using the mortar bed, mine are are very sturdy - no flexing at all. When guests use our showers, they always comment that they don't feel like the typical builders grade fiberglass showers. Tuesday |

I have a 5' tub/shower enclosure in our spare bathroom. Granted, we don't use it often, but I have used it and it feels very nice and sturdy, after almost 13 years & is still bright white. It has bathed many grandkids. Plus, one of our sons weighs around 250 lbs and he says it does not flex. We too purchased ours at a bathroom fixture store, not a big box store. The side walls are textured to look like subway tile, a nice feature. |

There's a new Fire/EMS chief in Hanover, but he's not new to Hanover.
Jethro Piland III started out at an early age by emulating his father. The Mechanicsville physician would make house calls, and 5-year-old Jethro would tag along and keep the family entertained.
"I saw a lot of that compassion, service, and medicine first-hand watching him, and of course as a young kid, my hero was my dad," Piland said.
Being "more of an adrenaline junkie" than his father, Piland took that sense of compassion and service to the East Hanover Rescue Squad in 1990 as a volunteer.
"I got to do medicine, but I got to do medicine with lights and sirens and I got to deal with emergencies," he said.
The Virginia Military Institute graduate had considered going to medical school or working at a hospital, but once he "got bit by the bug," he became an EMS "lifer."
After seven years of EMS service, he received his fire training to prepare for the potential merging of the fire and EMS departments, which occurred in 2002.
Since then, he has served as division chief of operations, division chief of training, and, most recently, division chief of administration, where he focused on logistical and budgetary matters.
The previous Hanover Fire/EMS chief, Fred Crosby, retired in October, at which point Piland was promoted to acting chief. Last month, he was selected among a field of 49 applicants for the official position.
"To me, it's about serving the people. To me, it's about the individual connection with the family or the family member," Piland said.
He keeps up his training to make sure he doesn't become "just a guy stuck behind a desk."
"My role is to lead the organization, to remove the roadblocks, and to support the personnel, and if that means that they're in a crisis situation and they need me to step up to the plate and provide the care or provide fire command, I'm ready to do that," Piland said.
"I know that I have quality fire and EMS personnel to do those roles—quality leaders to lead those situations, so it's an honor as well to lead those folks that do the work that I most appreciate," he said.
Piland is especially proud that Hanover Fire/EMS combines career and volunteer personnel.
"We have strong career providers, and we have strong volunteer providers. And my goal is for the citizens in the community not to know who is who. You're going to see professionals hop off of the fire truck," he said.
Hanover Fire/EMS has approximately 160 career personnel (including administrative staff) and 750 active volunteers. They're always looking to expand their ranks.
"Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year is a long time. It's holidays. It's birthdays. It's vacation time. So, we're always trying to find that balance of getting the right people in the right spot responding to the right calls," Piland said.
In recent years, in response to the economic recession, the two deputy chief positions have been converted to firefighter positions.
"Where we needed the help was in the field," Piland said, adding that he hopes to be able to restore a deputy-level position someday, but they're not there yet.
The Fire/EMS budget still supports volunteer training. Opportunities include the volunteer fire academies, a basic EMT course through a partnership with J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College, and an advanced paramedic program.
"When we get to growth, I want more opportunities," Piland said.
Piland also wants to improve the department's efficiency.
"I think we do a great job, but I'd like to be a little more efficient," he said.
"I'm humbled and honored to lead the men and women in the organization, both career and volunteer," Piland said.
"It's a great honor for me to represent them making the decisions to move the department forward, representing them to the county administrator and to the Board of Supervisors, [and] being out there with the public."
He added, "Those are the things that excite me."

Kuwait stocks gain on $9 bn Zain deal
Arab exchanges gain slightly on oil and Asian stocks.
June 9, 2010 10:16 by Rasha Reslan
Middle East markets were mixed on Tuesday, with most bourses bolstered by a slight turnaround in oil prices and Asian equities as investors briefly halted a sell-off of riskier assets.
Regional moves were limited, however, with Kuwait the largest gainer, climbing 0.9 percent to 6,723 points after Zain completed a $9 billion African asset sale, drawing investors back to the market. Index volumes almost tripled from the day before to reach a three-week high.
Zain's shares are suspended, but the operator is due to pay out a 170-fils-a-share 2009 dividend this month, with the money expected to be reinvested in stocks, particularly banks.
"Kuwait banks are undervalued by every ratio when compared to regional and international banks," said Essa Al-Hasawi, assistant manager at Zumorroda Investment Co. in Kuwait, adding National Bank of Kuwait, up 3.5 percent, and Gulf Bank, up 2.4 percent, were likely to be among top picks.
After market hours, Zain said its board would recommend a special dividend of 200-240 fils per share from its asset sale.
"Zain's deal has given good sentiment to the market," added Hasawi.
Dubai's index fell 0.3 percent to 1,514 points, declining for a third session in four to be within a point of Sunday's 14-month closing low. Abu Dhabi's benchmark fell for a 12th session in 13, dipping 0.2 percent.
"We're following international leads and trading is subdued – major players are out of the market," said Mohamed Laboudi, Prime Emirates relationship manager.
Emaar Properties fell 1.3 percent and Air Arabia lost 1.2 percent, with traders unmoved by the latter's plan to launch a Jordanian low-cost carrier.
"We see 1,505 points as a strong support level for Dubai and don't think this will break unless there is significant local news or another global sell off," added Laboudi.
"The market should trade sideways until we get a positive catalyst – nobody wants to enter the market without a clear direction. People are trying to sell off what they have slowly so as not to push the market down too far – everyone is worried about a double dip global recession."
The Abu Dhabi index fell 0.2 percent to 2,525 points.
The Tadawul All-Share Index (TASI) rose 0.2 percent to 5,999.91 points. Only 5 of the 15 sectors saw losses on Tuesday. Sector losses ranged from 0.05 percent in the Building & Construction sector, to losses of 1.33 percent in the Insurance sector. However the loss was matched by a gain of 1.33 percent in Agriculture sector and gains of 1.60 percent in the Media & Publishing sector, ranging down to moderate gains of 0.01 percent in the Industrial Investment sector. Overall market breadth was negative, with 41 advancing companies and 78 decliners recording an AD ratio of 0.53, the Financial Transaction House (FTH) said in its daily market commentary.
Saudi Basic Industries Corp. (SABIC) climbed 0.6 percent and Saudi Telecom Co. added 1.2 percent, but these gains may prove fleeting, with the index likely to test support at 5,375 points within the next two months, said Youssef Kassantini, an independent financial analyst.
The Qatari index rose 0.9 percent to 6,821 points. The Omani index climbed 0.4 percent to 6,099 points.
The Bahraini benchmark rose 0.4 percent to 1,414 points.
The Egypt index edged up 0.01 percent to 6,313 points.

Better Images, More Comfort from the New MRI at St. Anthony Thursday, 29 March 2012 The new MRI has what the industry has labeled a 'short bore' which means a larger, more spacious opening and shorter enclosure for tests. The short bore configuration allows the patient's head to remain outside the system for many scans and eases patient fears of being too closed in during testing – a worry common to many patients. The MRI's design and magnet strength deliver more detailed images than ever, in a shorter time than other open MRI systems. "Patients expect high quality imaging when their doctor orders MRI testing," said Nancy Malloy, Radiology Director at St. Anthony. "Our new system gives patients the best of all worlds during the exam – an opening that is larger and shorter, which helps ease claustrophobia and gives increased weight tolerance for more comfort, and more detailed images to help with their physician's diagnosis and treatment." The new short bore MRI compliments St. Anthony's full range of high quality imaging services – "The new MRI capabilities will prove to be an important step to help patients and their physicians maintain their health within the Carroll the community," said Malloy.
