"Ignorance of the law excuses no man." -John Selden [1584-1654]
Plagiarism, copyright infringement, and defamation of character, which includes libel and slander, have no place in a book¾or anywhere else for that matter. That isn't a moral judgment; it's just plain common sense. We are judged by what we say and what we do. And it may not matter whether we intentionally and knowingly violated a person's rights, stole his words, or damaged her reputation. We can lose our credibility, at the least. And at the worst, we can be sued.
The written word has great power. Once we speak we can't suck the words back into our mouths. Once we have put something in writing and sent it out into the world, we can't hit the delete button and get rid of it. Since there's no changing the past, we must make our corrections in the present, or better yet, learn how to avoid making the mistakes in the first place.
An ethic is a principle of right or good behavior; a system of moral principles or values. Being ethical means doing the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do and not just because you're afraid of getting caught if you don't. Writers seem to have a greater challenge than most because it is sometimes difficult to determine the line between research and plagiarism; between opinion and fact; and, thus, between right and wrong. Very often writers are unaware that they have violated a person's rights or caused consternation or harm. The laws are so complex that it isn't always easy to know when we have broken them. But we can become alert to some of the broad rules, including what and where the pitfalls might lie.
When you injure a person by saying untrue things about him, you have "defamed" him. Libel is defamation by written or printed words, pictures, or in any form other than by spoken words and gestures; slander is defamation by oral utterance other than by writing, pictures, etc., according to Webster's New Universal Unabridged Dictionary. The difference between the two terms is somewhat muddy but historically it depends on how wide an audience the defamer reached.
Some of the elements that are considered in defamation lawsuits are as follows:
We also need to know how much we can quote without getting permission, how many words we can use of someone else's writing before it becomes plagiarism, and a whole minefield of other challenges when we write. When in doubt, we must either take the questionable parts out or find out, in each case, what we can do legally. I believe most writers are ethical, but it's more than a matter of ethics. What we write has the potential not only to hurt others but to harm ourselves. Our words can come back to haunt us.

Travis Burleson grew up in the small central Texas town of Mart, where as a young boy he accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Travis went on to attend Texas A&M University, where he was a member of the Corps of Cadets and the Fightin' Texas Aggie Band. Midway through his sophomore year, challenged by God's call, he began to seek God's purpose for his life. Upon changing majors, the doors of ministry began to open and Travis went on to earn a degree in Speech Communications. After college, he earned his Masters of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and then later earned his Doctor of Ministry in Expository Preaching from the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.
Having served in churches across Texas and Kansas, he came to FBC Salado in 2008. FBC now has a membership of nearly 1,000 and has developed international church partnerships in Mexico, Mali, Thailand, and the United Kingdom. The church has sent volunteer missionaries to at least 12 different Countries worldwide, and has been recognized annually for the last 6 years as a Top-Level Giving Church Per Capita for the Lottie Moon (international) Mission Offering given through the Cooperative Program.
Dr. Burleson is a creative communicator who incorporates real life experiences and practical insight into his messages to effectively share God's Word with his listeners. He has preached revival/renewal weeks in the United Kingdom, and is a sought after speaker for banquets, commencements, and retreats.
His passions in ministry include practical exposition of the Bible, leadership development, enhancing prayer ministries, and mobilizing the local church for mission endeavors. He is currently drafting a devotional book based on his father's journal and the life-lessons therein.
Travis met his life-partner Terri, (also an A&M graduate) on a blind date in college. They have one daughter, Lydia, and one frisky Lab, and two typical cats. Among Travis' hobbies are outdoor activities including: fishing, hunting, hiking, camping, canoeing, and traveling. He also enjoys playing golf, watching football, and restoring antiques.
With a strong heritage in Texas history and Baptist life, Dr. Burleson's ancestors include General Edward Burleson, the first person buried at the Texas State Cemetery in Austin, and Dr. Rufus C. Burleson, whose statue appears on the campus of Baylor University.
Dr. Burleson has served as an Adjunct Texas History Lecturer in various elementary schools, an organizational Board Member for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (F.C.A.), and a Public Address/Stadium Announcer for several Central Texas high schools. Locally, he serves on the Board of Trustees at the University of Mary-Hardin Baylor, and is Director of Player Development for Salado ISD Athletic Department.
With a background and gifts in education, preaching, teaching, management, missions, and youth work, Dr. Scott Mescher provides a broad range of solid associate pastoral leadership. He has served in local churches, the State convention, and the mission field, joining the staff at FBC Salado in 2009. Dr. Mescher earned a Bachelor of Arts in Religion & Spanish from Oklahoma Baptist University, a Masters of Divinity with Biblical Languages from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a Doctor of Philosophy in Christian Apologetics from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He has also served as an Adjunct Faculty member at Campbellsville University and Simmons College, both in Kentucky. Married to Corey, they have 3 children, Corban, Noah, & Ellie.
In 1991 God called Scott to serve in full-time ministry and in December of the same year he responded, "Here am I." Scott attended college to prepare for the gospel ministry, and God confirmed his call by providing a variety of ministry opportunities. Serving in international and domestic missions, along with preaching opportunities, excited Scott to serve the Lord and present the gospel. After college, he and Corey married and moved to Seattle, WA to serve two years with the Language Church Extension, ministering in Spanish. Scott is bilingual with English and Spanish and uses his linguistic gift to spread the Gospel. He is currently serving as an adjunct professor for BUA (Bapt Univ of America) who offer satellite courses on the FBC Salado campus.
Scott enjoys spending time with his family in outdoor activities, camping, hiking, and riding bikes. He especially loves running! Scott ran the Indy-Mini half-marathon in Indianapolis, five different times, and ran his first full marathon in November 2009. When he's not racing around, Scott also enjoys reading history, especially biographies.
With a heart to help parents raise up their children to be "spiritual champions," Kevin Allen brings an exciting vision to the staff of FBC. Coming to Salado in 2010, Kevin previously served churches in the DFW metroplex and south Austin. A creative writer and technician, several of Kevin's scripts have been published through Lifeway.
Kevin earned a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Theatre from Hannibal-LaGrange College in Missouri, and a Master of Arts in Theology from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.
In addition to spending time with his wife Lauren, and three children (Emory, Phoebe, & Harrison), Kevin enjoys playing games, reading, solving brain-teasers, and playing fetch with his dog, Jack Bow-wower. Kevin is also a big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs (no matter how poorly they're doing.)
With a background and gifts in voice, piano, choir, media, music composition, arranging, and more, Austin Daniel provides an exciting range of solid leadership for FBC.
Joining the team in 2012, Austin had previously served in the local church, coordinated Association-level events, worked with college and young people, and supervised a variety of music endeavors.
Austin earned a Bachelor of Music degree in Composition from the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor and a Master of Music from Baylor University. Austin and his wife, Natalie (an East Texas Baptist University alum) have one child, Timothy.
Austin enjoys hiking, playing golf and tennis, and watching football. He also enjoys history and collects old hymnals and songbooks.

Especially the-one-whose-name-shall- > -not-be-spoken-aloud-or-he-will-come-with-his-metaphores. It's not that people aren't interested in sets, it's that the proposal of trying to mutate sets.conf into something people would be happy with is fucked from the get go. Keep in mind pkgcore actually already supports the basic format (minus a few tweaks, this is pkgcore's raw ini format for when people need to screw w/ the absolute guts of it). It is *not* a good format for compatibility; adding a couple global/generic class names (basic schemas) still leaves open the ability for people to force PM specific class settings, getting us right back into the original criticism I leveled- specifically leaving PM's having to continually play "emulate the portage api". It's a shitty situation to be in, and not one alternative PM authors are going to willingly walk into. sets.conf isn't viable; this was known when it was originally forced in. package.[setname] for a static list of atoms is a fairly good start; profiles could stack it (reusing existing stack logic), and repositories could grow metadata/sets/[name] as a base to use for example. One thing people need to agree on /prior to implementing this/, is how overlays will interact here. Can they mutate an existing set? etc. Other thing to note, we should probably use a different name than package.*; set.* is saner. If we use package.*, a naive implementation could interpret package.use* as a set. ~harring

I cannot comment on farmed salmon, compared to salmon raised in the wild, I do not know the survival rate of wild salmon eggs, But it appears that farmed raised salmon are developing a disease,I have a paper that was put out by the Dept. of Fisheries 30+ years ago on cod fish, that tells of how one cod egg in a million survives to become an adult fish, now i read of a disease in farmed raised salmon? I think that the only way to help rebuild the salmon and the fish stock is with the use of a Government financed fish hatchery, where cod eggs and salmon eggs can be hatched and when the small fish salmon or cod fish reach a set size then those fish should be released into protected coves or bays so that the salmon and fish stock would have a chance to rebuild its self , If a Cod fish survival rate was one in a million in a paper i have printed by the dept of Fisheries 30+ years ago when fish were plenty, How low must it be now? The only way to rebuild the fish stock be it Salmon Or COD is with the use of a fish hatchery, Where cod fish eggs survival rate can be" WITH THE HELP OF A FISH HATCHERY INCREASED FROM ONE IN A MILLION TO HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS IN A MILLION AND THE SMALL HARBOURS AND BAYS RESTOCKED WITH Young Fish

As a plan imposing new gun trafficking penalties was introduced; Gabby Giffords starred in a gun control commercial; and Obama called for bipartisan cooperation in the gun control debate, USA TODAY and The Gannett Washington Bureau pondered whether or not the people with power to foster or stifle new gun control measures were gun owners themselves.
Their survey found that half of the members of Wisconsin's ten-strong congressional delegation do in fact own guns, and a few of them are also members of the National Rifle Association. House members Reid Ribble, Ron Kind, Tom Petri and Paul Ryan make up the state's gun-toting lawmakers, and Ribble, Kind and Ryan are also members of the NRA. Tammy Baldwin, a Madison Democrat, is also a gun owner. On the opposite side, Rep. Gwen Moore, a Milwaukee Democrat, and Rep. James Sensenbrenner, the Menomonee Falls Republican, reported that they don't own guns. Three other legislators (Sen. Ron Johnson, freshman Rep. Mark Pocan and Rep. Sean Duffy) didn't respond.

Alpine villages are extremely rare in the Great Basin. To date, villages located at elevations above 10,000 feet are only known to occur in the White Mountains and the Toquima Range. Demographic forcing has been used to explain the existence of these villages, but this proposition does not identify the selective pressures that led to the establishment of high-elevation villages in some ranges but not others. Comparison of artifact distributions and environmental structure in the Toquima Range, where a village exists, and the Toiyabe Range, where one does not, supports the hypothesis that alpine villages were subsidized by intensive exploitation of mid-elevation pinyon groves associated with low-cost travel corridors, which facilitated transport of pine nuts to upland village locations. This study also reveals that limber pine may have played a role in alpine village subsistence, and identifies the need for further research on the value of this resource.

Ugh. Do I have to write about this again? Apparently.
Let's be clear. Hitting the debt ceiling is a seriously stupid idea. The debt ceiling was never intended to be a debt control measure. It does not, in fact, limit the amount of debt we can run up, only the amount we can pay to creditors for things we've already authorized. Here's Ezra Klein on what will happen if we crash the debt ceiling.

Unbeilevable Home
We stayed in this home during the fall leaf season. This is a most unbelievable home. It has an amazing kitchen, pond and comfortable living room. The master suite is on the other side of the house from the other bedrooms providing privacy. The living room in this house is wonderful with an amazing fireplace.I would want my second home to be just like this home.
The house is only 10 minutes from Manchester and minutes to Bromley and Stratton. I highly recommend staying here

text: Christ's Last CommandIn a direct, but thoughtful manner, Peter A. Steveson approaches the apparent disconnect between what believers know of Christ's Last Command and what they do in response to it. Many fail to fulfill this most basic part of the Christian walk simply because their lack of preparation has trapped them in fear. But Christ has amply provided everything necessary to fully equip His servants for their mission. Steveson's style, application of godly common sense, and use of practical illustrations from personal experiences make this book a must-have for every Christian serious about using the resources Christ has provided.

Funding and Sponsorship
The Europeana Foundation receives funding from the European Commission, with matching funds supplied by Member States and Non-Member States to carry out its activities.
The Ministry funding has allowed Europeana.eu to develop from a prototype to an operational service allowing for:
- participation in projects (matching funds)
- marketing of the site and the work of the Foundation
- the development of policy such as the Public Domain Charter and Mark
- staff recruitment, development and retention
- the development of the Europeana Network itself
- the legal and accountable basis of the Foundation
- developing the Europeana Foundation as a governing body
- the launch of the Europeana Network to support and give a democratic voice to the Foundation
The committed and received funding from 21 countries has meant that Europeana has fully covered both project-matching and operating costs through to the end of 2012. However for the year 2013, Europeana needs to raise additional funds of € 426,000.
By funding Europeana, Ministries are reaping the following benefits:
- underpinning the knowledge economy, as well as inspiring and enabling new business opportunities and new markets
- showcasing national heritage content in (an international) context
- making a valuable investment in the future of the creative industries
- creating a resource for a range of services and new learning environments which can be built through single investments
- reinforcing the relevance of the cultural institutions to future generations
- promoting cultural tourism
- keeping digitised cultural assets in the public domain and enabling use and re-use of public domain material
By sponsoring Europeana, you can market your organisation to a wide range of audiences such as decision-makers in business, government entities, and, of course, customers. This is particularly beneficial for companies that trade internationally because sponsorship transcends cultural and language barriers.
If you are interested in learning more about how to contribute funds and sponsorships to Europeana, please contact our fundraiser Annette Friberg.

A few days ago, I had my very first Twitter birthday—I started using Twitter on January 2, 2011 on a whim. 441 tweets and one year later, I've learned a lot from the platform. When I mention Twitter to my friends who aren't users, they tend to dismiss the social network citing the popular misconception that Twitter is full of random updates about what people ate for breakfast. Believe it or not, Twitter actually has value! Don't get me wrong, there are people out there who do use Twitter to publish pointless thoughts every minute of every day. That's why the "unfollow" button exists. These are a few things I learned during my first year on Twitter... Read More »
20 Common Social Media Terms Explained
The first time I heard social media professionals conversing during my first internship, I felt like I had accidentally stepped aboard the Starship Enterprise—social media jargon can sound a lot like alien languages from Star Trek. Over time, I collected definitions of all the phrases that were commonly used so I could join in on the conversation with my coworkers. Hopefully this mini-glossary can define a few social media terms for others like me—people that don't want to be left out of the next conversation with their social media savvy friends and coworkers.

Arthur Honored for Assisting Eric Ulrichs During and After Four-Month Absence for Training Exercises | ||||||
Des Moines, Iowa, Dec 19, 2012
-- @@Bill Menner, USDA Rural Development State Director in Iowa, today announced that John Arthur, USDA Rural Development Area Director in southeastern Iowa, has recently received the Patriot Award for extraordinary support of an employee who is serving in the Iowa National Guard. The award is provided by the Iowa Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), an agency of the Department of Defense. "The Patriotic Employer Award recognizes individuals who provide outstanding patriotic support and cooperation to their employees, who like the citizen warriors before them, have answered their nation's call to serve," said Dick Rue, State Chair, Iowa Committee for ESGR. Ulrichs joined USDA Rural Development's Mount Pleasant office in September 2009. In May 2011 he approached his supervisor John Arthur and expressed an interest joining the Army National Guard. From this initial conversation Arthur has fully supported Ulrichs' desire to serve his country. "First and foremost, we are all very thankful to Eric for his dedicated service to the National Guard to protect our nation's freedoms," Menner said. "We are also extremely pleased that John is receiving well-deserved recognition for assisting Eric as he prepared for a second career in the Iowa National Guard." Arthur worked very closely with Ulrichs prior to and even during his time away. Specifically, Arthur made sure Ulrichs received all the time-off and pay benefits he was eligible to receive. He also stayed in regular contact with Ulrichs while he was at basic training.

Self Blood Glucose Monitoring Assists Patients with Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes
In a 28-week behavioral weight control program, 22 obese patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM) were recruited to determine the effects of self blood glucose monitoring (SBGM) in diabetes management. For the first eight weeks, all the participants met in weekly support groups. After eight weeks, the original group was divided in two, with the first half continuing the support groups, and the second adding SBGM and dietary carbohydrate counting. While the results in weight loss were identical for both groups, the study revealed that people in the support group experienced a substantial decline in HbA1c levels, followed by a rapid "rebound," while in the second group, HbA1c levels consistently declined. The results of the study suggest that SBGM and carbohydrate counting should be recognized as important tools in the management of non-insulin dependent as well as insulin-dependent diabetes.

by Catherine Dupeyron
In Israel, Jews and Arabs often live in parallel worlds where their paths rarely cross, each side remaining in its community, city, school, university. But there are those who choose to live together. This is not self-evident. It requires a strong, persistent will and the determination not to give up, whatever the obstacles. It is this challenge which is taken up daily, each in their own way, by the 10,000 students and 700 teachers and management of Beit Berl College, situated near Kfar Saba, 3 km. from the Green line and 10km. from the Mediterranean. This challenge – dialogue between communities – is also that of Jerusalem & Religions and we were partners in the inaugurating event of the Circle of Friends of Beit Berl College which took place on June 23, in Paris, at the town hall of the 16th arrondissement, under the auspices of Deputy-Mayor, Claude Goasguen, President of the France-Israel Parliamentary Friendship Association.
At the end of the academic year, Beit Berl College is quiet. Classes have ended, so have the examinations. The campus is practically empty during the day. But on the evening of June 15, a group of students has gathered round a buffet outside the college library. Further away, in the middle of the lawn, a large platform has been erected for the diploma award ceremony. The atmosphere is convivial. The graduates include young and less young, religious and secular, Jews and Arabs, and many pregnant women or women holding babies in their arms, waiting their turn to mount the platform while, in the audience, parents are applauding their children. Amel is standing slightly apart from the crowd. Wearing a long djellaba and headscarf, she calmly walks up and down hoping to lull her newborn baby to sleep. In order to study at Beit Berl, Amel, who lives in the Wadi Ara region, chose to journey 45 minutes by bus. She could have opted for other solutions nearer her home, solutions aimed exclusively at Israeli Arabs, but she preferred Beit Berl and does not regret her decision. "The standard is first-class and the teachers are very good," explains this beautiful, young Muslim in perfect Hebrew. The fact that the college is attended by Jews is not an obstacle. "On the contrary, it's a plus," she says smiling. Shira, for her part, is the mother of two young toddlers. This evening, she left them at home. An Orthodox Jew, who also wears a headscarf, Shira stresses the human dimension of Beit Berl. " Here, we aren't just a number, we all have a name." For Shira, the presence of Arab students does not pose a problem. "I teach civic education, so I am familiar with respect for differences."
Things are not self-evident. Co-existence, and even more so the ability to live together, do not drop magically out of the sky. It requires effort and sacrifice. Co-existence between Jews, Muslims and Christians – all Israeli citizens – is not a long, quiet river. For Tamar Ariav, President of Beit Berl College, it is an "ideological" commitment. And a commitment which exacts a price. "Some students, Jews and Arabs, do not apply to Beit Berl because of its mixed campus, she laments. Nonetheless, Beit Berl, which was founded in 1949, has a large public since it welcomes, every year, 10,000 students, 20% of whom are Arab students – reflecting the exact percentage of Israeli Arabs in Israel's population. And being primarily an institution devoted to teacher training, the daily co-existence it promotes is not limited to mere personal experience: it is a model for future generations.
"To the extent that a teacher can have, in the course of his/her career, an influence over thousands of children, the work we do here is laying the ground for future co-existence. Already, the next generation is more confident than we were," notes Ruwaida Abou Rass, who speaks from experience, having been a student at Beit Berl in the 1980s, before being appointed lecturer in English in 1997. "In the 80s, and even quite recently, relations between Jews and Arabs were more on the level of rulers-ruled. But things have evolved considerably since then, notably, in the last three years. Our voices are heard more, we are more involved in decision-making and we are more respected." An outcome which Beit Berl owes, above all, to its President, Tamar Ariav. Tamar's hope is that "Israeli society, as a whole, will also follow in this path."
But one must constantly persevere, for the equilibrium between Arabs and Jews is fragile. Every military operation undertaken by the Israeli army or every attack perpetrated by a terrorist can destabilize the edifice. "Everything can crumble in a second and racist remarks will emanate from both sides. At the same time, when tension rises, everyone very quickly feels the need to make an effort to get close again," says Ruwaida.
Another source of tension derives from the commemorative days, with their distinctly different historical resonance for Jews and Arabs such as Independence Day, Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers and, curiously, Holocaust Remembrance Day. "The study of the Holocaust is not obligatory in the curriculum of Israeli Arab schools," notes Tamar Ariav, a fact which has created great ignorance about this 20th century calamity and great incomprehension about Jewish psychology among the Israeli Arab population.
Conversely, even without comparing the different side's historical tragedies, Jewish students know little or nothing about the Nakba. "We need to listen to their history and vice-versa. It's of no help if we remain attached to one's own narrative," says Ruweida, whose family came from Miska, an Arab village which was entirely destroyed during the 1948 war. This is the aim of the multicultural study program given in the framework of the Unesco Chair for Multi-Culturalism in Education, created in 2004 and directed by Ruwaida since 2009. Two new initiatives suggested by Tamar Ariav, were developed in the last two years: promotion of visits by Israeli Arab students to Auschwitz, on the one hand, and lectures on the Nakba for Jewish students, on the other hand, both ventures going against the conventional approaches of Israel's Jewish and Arab communities, which tend to focus on themselves. "We are an academic institution where freedom of expression reigns, so it is important to listen to the Other," stresses Tamar.
The initiatives are ones which Berl Katznelson, for whom the College is named, would certainly have endorsed. In 1936, when addressing a meeting of his Socialist Mapai comrades, this Russian Jewish immigrant to Palestine and pedagogic expert, talked about this "Orient which we need to learn about."

Darren McFadden isn't expected to play this afternoon against the Cleveland Browns as the Raiders protect their recently recovered running back from the expected sloppy playing conditions.
After optimism he would play this week, Raiders RB Darren McFadden unlikely to play today vs Cleveland.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 2, 2012
McFadden has missed the Raiders' last three games with an ankle injury, and he was listed this week as a game-time decision. In his absence Marcel Reece, who will start today, has recorded 225 rushing yards rushing and 175 receiving yards.
Reece will be up against a Browns defense that allows 118.4 yards per game on the ground, good for 19th overall in the NFL.

Our Mission
We're committed to making the highest level of financial and operational integrity available to creative, passionate small-business owners.
We have seen one too many artists, athletes and entrepreneurs burn out, fail and – even worse! – completely lose their passion for what they do.

With our expert financial and operational skills, you can really devote your time and attention to the parts of your business that inspire you.
Our Team
Principal: Kate Ross
As a small business owner, Kate knows first hand the value of streamlined operations and smart bookkeeping to achieve financial and career goals.
Through strategic growth planning, risk assessment, and cash flow management, Kate helps small businesses exceed their goals. To her clients, Kate is more than just a consultant: she's an advisor, a mentor, and a friend.
In November of 2011, Kate followed her passion to provide back of house solutions to generate amazing results for local entrepreneurs, musicians, and artists and started Ross Business Management. With no staff, Kate worked determinedly to ensure the success of her early clients, one of whom came to Kate with a $21,000 tax levy, no organized accounting system, and minimal credit. In only a year, this same client started working on large government projects without the stress of back-end operations.
While earning degrees in Math and Economics from Vassar College, Kate discovered a passion for the art of business. She is a master at applying big business organizational principals and methodologies to small companies and startups. She has worked at large and small, for-profit and non-profit institutions, experience that gives Kate a unique ability to effectively manage a broad range of operational and strategic issues. While overseeing multi-million dollar budgets and operations as Finance Director for Group Goetz Architects, Kate acted as Director of Membership Development at the American High Speed Rail Alliance, promoting carbon emissions reduction through the development of a unified national high-speed rail network.

NOIDA: The sudden spurt of Culex mosquitoes, whose bite can lead to encephalitis in severe cases, has sent the medical wing in Noida into overdrive. The combination of increase in population of these mosquitoes, which breed in dirty water, and the massive number of open drains in the city has prompted the district administration to start fogging in the district.
"A Culex mosquito doesn't need clean water to breed like the Aedes and Anopheles mosquito and breeds in dirty water. As a result, Noida's dirty drains can be particularly problematic," said Dr VA Bhardwaj, senior physician, Bhardwaj Hospital.
The administration has decided to begin fogging early this year, beginning this month. "The fogging will begin in Phase-II. Special focus will be on vulnerable areas where the mosquito is likely to breed," said Vedpal, health officer.
Earlier, the district magistrate, Dr Shanmuga Sundaram, wrote to all health officials to make preparations to prevent the outbreak of dengue fever and malaria and other vector borne diseases in the district and identify areas where they are prevalent. "With the onset of summer, the outbreak of various infectious diseases such as malaria and dengue becomes likely. As a result, it is essential that district health officials ensure that awareness about such diseases is spread and preparations to handle any possible outbreaks should be made from now," reads the letter.

XBMC 11.0 Available
The XBMC team announces the release of a new and improved XBMC 11.0 (Eden) for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and iOS, as well as XBMCbuntu Final, built on the LXDE desktop.
The latest release of XBMC (code-named Eden) media player and entertainment center is now available for download. According to the website, XBMC 11.0 milestones include improvements to Confluence (the default skin), massive speed increases, movie set scraping, additional protocol handling, better networking support, improved handling of unencrypted Blu-ray content and structures, adjustable display refresh rate in Mac OS X (to match that feature in Windows and Linux), AirPlay support, an upgraded weather service with GeoIP lookup, and more.
Eden marks the first in-sync stable release for the Apple TV2, iPad, and other iOS devices. According to the website, developers have improved the method by which input is handled, including heavily upgrading JSON-RPC support – making remote control support much simpler in Windows and enabling unique methods of device communication with hardware. AMD devices are now also supported for GPU video decoding in Linux to some extent.
In addition to XBMC 11 for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and iOS, the developers also announced XBMCbuntu Final. According to the website, XBMCbuntu is very similar to past versions of XBMC Live. By default, the user boots directly into XBMC, and need never see the underlying OS.
The announcement states that XBMCbuntu is now built upon a full LXDE desktop environment, which has a web browser (Chromium) with a fully updated (and updatable) version of Flash built-in and a GUI package manager ready to install and update all of the typical Ubuntu programs. For more information, see: http://xbmc.org/. You can download XBMC at: http://xbmc.org/download/.

The man who tried to calm down Shia LaBeouf moments after the beatdown in Vancouver last week tells TMZ ... the actor threatened to pull a knife on him in the wake of the fight ... but he never actually flashed a blade.
TMZ spoke with Shea Carter ... the man who restrained Shia after the fight ... who tells us he noticed the actor inside the Cinema Public House bar BEFORE the melee. Carter says LaBeouf had been drunkenly swaying into several patrons ... including one man who calmly warned Shia, "Hey man, watch out."
Carter says Shia replied, "Oh yea? Or what? What are you going to do about it?" That's when the two decided to take things outside ... and the guy beat Shia down to the ground.
Carter says he quickly grabbed Shia in an effort to protect himself in case the knife threat was serious.
Carter says the actor eventually walked away ... so he went back inside the bar. But moments later, Carter says, Shia appeared outside a window and made a throat-slashing gesture at him ... before leaving for the night.
TMZ placed multiple calls to Shia's rep for comment -- no word back.

Woman invents ghost to keep house in divorce settlement
A VICTORIAN woman claimed her family home was haunted in a bid to keep the price tag low enough that she could keep it in a divorce settlement. The wife, 52, told her husband, lawyers, a property valuer and a court a ghost had been seen at the property. But she was happy to remain in the house and wanted the chance to keep it, while her estranged husband wanted it sold.
The wife, through her solicitors, wrote to the valuer saying it was "her belief that the property is haunted" and asking how this would impact on the property's value.

At their best July to September
Chefs and cooks seem to have an endless debate about aubergines: to salt and drain, or not to salt and drain. I'm for the former.
I do take the point that the modern aubergine has evolved to a state where it does not contain bitter juices, but the juices are there, nonetheless, and I find salting and draining gets rid of excess moisture and concentrates the flavour – there's nothing worse than a watery aubergine.
Aubergines also have a capacity to absorb other flavours, so are great mixed with tomatoes and spices, cheese or pulses.
They also absorb oil at an incredible rate, so frying is not recommended. I find the best way to cook them is either by oven-roasting or char-grilling.
Poulet a la Catalane
This frugal recipe includes aubergines, peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes so will be cheapest to make in early autumn when these ingredients are in season: enjoy!
Aubergines Stuffed with Moussaka
Moussaka with a twist here, as Delia uses minced lamb to stuff aubergines in her own version of a Greek classic.
Aubergines Amalfitane
This lovely, Italian-inspired aubergine recipe is the essence of late-summer eating and would be a good addition to your barbecue repertoire.
Moussaka with Roasted Aubergines and Ricotta
Although moussaka is a Greek classic, Delia has added an Italian element with a ricotta topping for a creamy and lighter touch than the traditional bechamel sauce.
Oven-roasted Ratatouille
A classic ratatouille is wonderful, but if you roast the vegetables it takes it to another dimension and retains all the vegetables' flavour and texture.

We've already established that the ACC is the new SEC.
We've already established that the ACC is the new SEC.
As a FSU alum I almost feel pity for SEC fans these days.
This past weekend, I visited my cousin in Tuscaloosa.
Leading up to this point, Delta Gamma from Florida State has garnered A LOT of hype as not only the hottest chapter in the ACC, but in the country.
If you're like the rest of us, you have no idea which college football team is in which conference.
The world is a scary place and everything is changing and I hate it.
Notre Dame announced today that it will be joining the ACC for every sport except for football, although its football team will play five games annually against conference teams.
The ACC will be gaining Syracuse one year earlier than was previously thought, after the Orange announced yesterday it will pay an exit fee of $7.
Florida State is not the best college basketball team, but you won't find another that's as clutch.

sculler Posts: 4Facing my first year in deep snow country. I do a lot of skiing and spend lots of time on steep twisting roads covered with snow. I wonder how the XB with traction control will handle compared to the 4 wd Matrix. I need the room in the XB but don't know how it will handle bad road conditions or how I should equip the XB. Can anyone comment from their experience? The Toyota folk promise the XB will outperform the Matrix 4 wd.
Mr_Shiftright CaliforniaPosts: 46,197I think the FWD would be especially vulnerable on slow uphill climbs, since all the weight is transferred to the rear; also the xB has a shorter wheelbase I believe.
But with 4 snow tires and some weight in the back end, it should be all right for most conditions. I also don't see how it could outperform a 4WD/AWD car.
Really though, driving in snow is about 50% driver, 25% car and 25% tires IMO.MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
sculler Posts: 4Thanks for the advice. I have spoken with three dealers and with a Scion rep. All assure me that the XB is as good in snow as any fwd sedan but would not be as capable as a Matrix 4 wd, assuming both had appropriate tires. Purchasing a spare set of rims and tires for winter seems the best answer. Again, thanks.
crazedcommuter Posts: 281Your advice about the 4 winter tires is correct. I've been running 4 Blizzacks on my 2005 XB for 3 years now and I have never been stuck and have crawled over mountains and twisty country roads with ease on my long daily commute from WV to Wash, DC. On snowy, plowed highways I find that I can drive along nicely at speeds up to 50 mph and feel perfectly in control while passing lumbering SUV's.
My driveway is a steep climb and and the XB with snow tires has always made it up even if the kids "forgot" to shovel in favor of sledding. The Blizzacks are 185 60 15 and have a softer sidewall than the Kumho 716's that I run the rest of the year, so I drive slower with them on. I have dedicated steel rims for the snows and the local tire store never charges me for the swap, they code it a rotation, since I bought both sets there.

Prosecution argues against bail in Pistorius case
PRETORIA, South Africa (CNN) — Prosecutors said they will file more charges against Oscar Pistorius and argued the Olympian accused of killing his girlfriend is a flight risk who should be denied bail.
On the second day of Pistorius' bail hearing Wednesday, prosecutors also said neighbors reported hearing sounds of arguing from his home that went on for an hour the morning of the shooting.
Pistorius is charged with premeditated murder in the Valentine's Day shooting death of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
Police Officer Hilton Botha testified Pistorius, 26, had offshore accounts and a house in Italy, and that if he left South Africa it would be difficult to get him back.
The athlete sat with his head bowed, sometimes crying.
Police said they found bullets in a safe inside the house and plan to charge Pistorius with possession of unlicensed ammunition.
Steenkamp was killed in Pistorius' bathroom; Pistorius said he fired shots into the toilet door, thinking an intruder was in the room.
Botha told the court Pistorius shot directly at the toilet, saying if he had fired at the door, he would have missed the toilet.
Police found a firearm on the bathroom mat and two cell phones in the bathroom; neither phone had been used to make a call.
Botha said police believe a cricket bat found in the bathroom was used to break down the door to the toilet; part of the door was lying in the bathroom.
The charge of premeditation makes it more difficult for Pistorius' attorneys to argue he should be released pending trial. To win bail, the defense must argue that "exceptional circumstances" exist that would justify Pistorius' release.
In a statement read by his lawyer on Tuesday, Pistorius said he would not try to flee or influence any witnesses if he is allowed out on bail, and he argued his release wouldn't be a danger to public order.
Magistrate Desmond Nair upgraded the charge against Pistorius to premeditated murder on Tuesday, saying he could not rule out the possibility that the track star planned Steenkamp's death. But Nair said he will consider downgrading the charge later.
A tragic mistake?
While prosecutors and defense lawyers agree Pistorius shot Steenkamp, the track star denied intentionally killing her.
"I fail to understand how I could be charged with murder, let alone premeditated murder because I had no intention to kill my girlfriend," Pistorius said in his statement.
"We were deeply in love and couldn't be happier," he said. "I loved her and I know she felt the same way."
In his statement, Pistorius said Steenkamp came to his home February 13 for a quiet dinner. They wrapped up the night with a bit of television in bed for him, some yoga for her. She had brought him a Valentine's Day present to open the next day.
After the couple had gone to bed, he said he got up in the early hours of February 14 to close the balcony door in his bedroom when he heard a sound in the bathroom.
Pistorius said he'd been a victim of violence and burglary in the past, and realized with terror that contractors who worked at the house had left ladders outside.
Fearing someone had entered the home through an open bathroom window, Pistorius grabbed his 9mm pistol from under the bed, moved in the dark on the stumps of his amputated legs and yelled at what he thought was the intruder to get out.
"I fired shots at the toilet door and shouted to Reeva to phone the police. She did not respond and I moved backwards out of the bathroom, keeping my eye on the bathroom entrance," Pistorius said in his statement.
"Everything was pitch-dark in the bedroom and I was still too scared to switch on a light."
"When I reached the bed, I realized that Reeva was not in bed. That is when it dawned on me that it could have been Reeva who was in the toilet. I returned to the bathroom calling her name," he said.
He said he threw open the balcony door and screamed for help, put on his prosthetic legs and tried to kick in the door to the separate room inside the bathroom containing the toilet. Then, he said, he picked up a cricket bat, smashing panels out of the door before finding a key and unlocking it.
"Reeva was slumped over but alive," he said.
Pistorius said he called for help and was told to take her to the hospital himself.
He carried her downstairs and tried to help her, but she died.
A premeditated murder?
Prosecutors, however, painted a different picture.
They rejected Pistorius' claim that he mistook her for a burglar, saying it would make no sense for an intruder to hide behind a locked bathroom door.
Instead, they say Pistorius armed himself, attached his prosthetic legs and walked 7 meters (23 feet) to shoot Steenkamp through a bathroom door after a heated argument.
Defense attorney Barry Roux questioned the state's argument, asking how prosecutors would know Pistorius had put on his prosthetic legs and walked to the bathroom before shooting his girlfriend.
Police were alerted to the shooting by neighbors, and residents had "heard things earlier," police spokeswoman Denise Beukes said.
Authorities said there had been "previous incidents" at the home, including "allegations of a domestic nature," but did not provide details.
Case rivets fans and friends alike
The case of the global sports hero known as the "Blade Runner" has riveted stunned fans around the world.
Social media reaction to the case appeared to come down against the sports star, but was still noticeably mixed on CNN's Facebook page.
"There's no amount of tears that will save you," said Anthonia Nneka Nwabueze. "Pistorius must face the law for brutally killing an innocent girl -- Reeva."
"My favorite athlete but what he did is grave and must be punished," Carlos Alvarez Ochoa said.
But another person who posted called for patience.
"(N)one of us were in the house when his girlfriend was murdered, let's hold off on casting stones at Oscar Pistorius," said Adrian van Liere Since. "Just like anyone else, he deserves a just trial, and in my eyes remains innocent until proven guilty."
Coming to his defense were two acquaintances.
"I've never seen him show an angry side. I've never seen him lose his temper," Vanessa Haywood, a model and longtime friend, told CNN. "He's an incredibly kind and gentle human being."
Another endorsement came from a former girlfriend.
"I would just like to say, I have dated Oscar on off for 5 YEARS," Jenna Edkins said on Twitter. "NOT ONCE has he EVER lifted a finger to me, made me fear for my life."
