Gesture Logic introduces muscle-monitoring fitness device
Wearable technology tracks fitness and helps keep wearer safe while exercising
By PoliceOne Staff
Gesture Logic is putting forth a new wearable fitness device called "LEO." Worn as a band around the upper thigh, LEO is created to optimize the user's workout while reducing risk of fitness-related injury.
Using biosignal monitoring technology, the device measures the following: muscle activity, heart rate, hydration levels, fatigue, calories, technique, and lactic acid. LEO then takes these measurements and notifies the wearer if anything is off during the workout. Additionally, the Gesture Logic device works to improve fitness routines and exercises by recommending ways to increase efficiency or better techniques.
LEO is connected with an iOS/Android app that lets the user customize a workout and understand results of the measurements taken during a workout.

Pro-choice advocates have been "forced … into a corner" by legislative maneuvering and should fight to "regain momentum," a Guttmacher Institute official says in a rally-the-troops article.
"Antiabortion advocates have unveiled a radical agenda aimed at eliminating abortion coverage from any health insurance plan that in any way touches a public dollar, whether directly or even indirectly, under the tax code," said Susan A. Cohen, director of government affairs for the Guttmacher Institute.
This "goes far beyond the Hyde amendment," and advocates will need to fight harder to ensure that abortion is a covered health care service under the federal government's Medicaid program, in state health care "exchanges" and in private insurance policies, she said in an analysis in the fall 2010 issue of the Guttmacher Policy Review.
Pro-life leader Marjorie Dannenfelser said that if Ms. Cohen accuses the pro-life movement of having a strategy to disconnect abortion from taxpayer funds, "I plead guilty. She is right."
"Poll after poll shows that Americans do not want their tax dollars funding abortions, yet the Obama administration and its allies in Congress have expanded taxpayer funding of abortion both here and abroad in unprecedented ways," said Ms. Dannenfelser, president of the Susan B. Anthony List, which supports pro-life issues and candidates.
The abortion issue should soon come back full force, she said. "There's really no question that [the midterm elections] will strengthen the pro-life power in the House and Senate. The question is what will we all do with it."
Ms. Cohen's analysis, "Insurance Coverage of Abortion: The Battle to Date and the Battle to Come," starts with a review of how abortion was handled in this year's debate over health care reform.
"The whole purpose of health care reform was to expand coverage of basic health services, which logically should include the full range of reproductive health services, including abortion," she wrote, noting that abortion is not rare — one in three U.S. women undergo the procedure by age 45.
When President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law in March, it had a "meticulously designed set of rules to segregate [health insurance] premium payments so that no federal funds will go toward paying claims for abortion," Ms. Cohen wrote, referring to language written primarily by Sen. Ben Nelson, a pro-life Democrat from Nebraska.
However, pro-life leaders insisted that the Nelson amendment "is still tantamount to federal funding of abortion," and they have now laid out their "road map" to remove abortion from mainstream health care coverage, she said, referring to a bill sponsored by Rep. Christopher H. Smith, New Jersey Republican.
The No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, introduced this summer by veteran pro-life leader Mr. Smith and 183 co-sponsors, will be used to "demagogue against abortion" in health care, Ms. Cohen predicted.
Other pro-choice groups have denounced the Smith bill.
The Smith bill "reaches even further than Hyde," said the Center for Reproductive Rights, referring to the Hyde amendment, a federal rider that since 1976 has disallowed direct federal spending on most abortions.
"Because of the Hyde amendment, more than 1 million women have been denied the ability to make their own decisions about bringing a child into the world," Stephanie Poggi, executive director of the National Network of Abortion Funds, said in a Center for Reproductive Rights report on how the Hyde amendment harms lower-income women.
If the federal Medicaid program was blocked from paying for any abortions, Ms. Poggi added, her network — which raises $3 million a year to help 21,000 lower-income women pay for their abortions — couldn't possibly handle "the enormous need" that would be created.
The Smith bill goes into "uncharted territory," Ms. Cohen said in her Guttmacher article: It would prevent employers from taking a tax deduction for insurance plans that include abortion coverage, disallow people to use pretax dollars to pay insurance premiums with abortion coverage or to pay for abortions under a flexible health spending account.
Even abortion foes should be able to see that these represent a "strained view" of government "funding," Ms. Cohen wrote. "But with the Democratic Party on the run leading up to the midterm elections and the disinformation campaign against the health care law being used as a rallying tool on the right, it is not surprising that antiabortion activists feel emboldened."
In fact, the Smith bill is so sweeping, Ms. Cohen added, that it could be a "a clear political, communications and legal road map" for the anti-abortion movement.
Indeed, the Smith bill will be "the first order of business," said Ms. Dannenfelser, noting that the House Republicans' "Pledge to America" promised to "establish a government-wide prohibition on taxpayer funding of abortion and subsidies for insurance coverage that includes abortion," and to "enact into law conscience protections for health care providers, including doctors, nurses, and hospitals."
The Smith bill does both those things, Ms. Dannenfelser said.
Ms. Cohen also said in her Guttmacher article that abortion battles will break out in state legislatures and even in private insurance companies.
Five states — Arizona, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee — have banned abortion coverage in state health exchange plans, even though those exchanges won't be operational until 2014.
"We anticipate more of these [exchange ban] bills will be introduced in 2011," said Dionne Scott, a spokeswoman for the Center for Reproductive Rights, which recently issued a summary of 2010 state legislative trends on abortion.
Given such negative pushback, it is "an open question" whether insurers will even attempt to offer abortion coverage, Ms. Cohen said.
Ms. Dannenfelser countered that while the Smith bill may well be a road map for federal pro-life strategies, there's no such thing for states. There are too many variables in too many states for some single strategy, she said.
However, given the strong pro-life bent of the American people, as evidenced by polls, there's no reason to not press hard on the "first priority" of any pro-life organization, which is to "detach any taxpayer money from abortion services," Ms. Dannenfelser said.
There's been "a sea change in our ability" to influence abortion debates and "we are seizing the moment," she added.

One of the best PSP's game to date! 0
Well, here we have Jak's sidekick, Daxter, who's finally got his solo game, and what's to expect? Well, this game is simply gorgeous! Ready at Dawn (who was also in charge of God of War: Chains of Olympus) did an amazing job bringing the Haven City world to the portable console and the fans of Jak II and Jak III will feel right at home. It has amazing graphics, controls, incredible music and just too much fun! The story of this game starts right before the beginning of Jak II, when Jak is caught...

A Portable Pleasure 0
When we think of a portable game, our thoughts usually wander to something enjoyable, something that will give you an immersing experience and something that mostly should keep you busy for a pretty long time. And, then you think of the kind of PSP games we come across. Most of them are to be ignored. But, often on PSP comes a game like Daxter that doesn't revolutionise anything in particular, but just does something differently. The thing that this lovable 3D Action Platformer does differ...

A solid platformer with amazing tech. 0
The first thing you notice when playing Daxter is the graphics. They are simply amazing. If it wasn't for Tekken this would be by far the best looking game on the PSP. The environments are large, the cutscenes are beautiful, and the framerate stays fairly consistent. While the world isn't as big as Jak II and 3 for a PSP game about a little fuzzy guy not half the size of the regular people it's big enough. Gameplay in Daxter consists of the familiar platforming and vehicular levels from previou...

Asking us to choose between Sandra Bullock and Jennifer Lopez is like asking us to name our favorite Ryan Gosling movie! We love them all (or in this case, both) so, so much!
That said, we're faced with an aggressive steal on the part of the A.K.A. album dropper. Not only did the Gravity star wear an incredibly memorable Roland Mouret look, but she wore it to the Spike TV Guys' Choice Awards. Meaning, it's likely burned into the mind of every man in America. Yes, we know guys don't care about clothes, but we beg to differ when the clothes look like this.
VIDEO: Has J.Lo's career hit the skids?! Watch the E! team discuss
The only discernible differences between J.Lo and Sandy are length and shoe choice. The "I Luh Ya Papi" singer went for the midi version of this hot pink hotness while America's sweetheart opted for the mini. Since this look is already in Barbie clothes territory, we say the smaller shape keeps it on theme. Same goes for the pumps. Summer calls for free toes and feet, not the Bronx beauty's chunky pumps.
So it looks like Sandra would win even if J.Lo didn't accidentally flash a nipple pastie in this look! But just in case there was any question, a wardrobe whoops equals an immediate Bitch Stole My Look loss. You can't wear it best if you can't keep it on. What's your say on the sitch?

Female Detectives on TV and in Books
Happy birthday, Mariska Hargitay! The Law & Order: SVU star and daughter of '50s sex symbol Jayne Mansfield turns 49 today. As a huge crime-drama junkie, I've been watching Mariska play her onscreen alter ego Detective Olivia Benson since she began the role in 1999. My TiVo is always filled with the murder mysteries and courtroom dramas that are aplenty on TV these days, and I'm especially happy to see so many women in the leading roles.
Many of us grew up reading and watching smart, tough female detectives like Nancy Drew, Miss Marple, and Jessica Fletcher, and there's also a new lady to add to the bunch: Sherlock Holmes's sidekick, Dr. Joan Watson (played by Lucy Liu), on Elementary. The show is currently in its first season, and we're loving the female version of the iconic detective doc!
These women prove that having brains can be sexy — no push-up bra required. So let's take a look back at the crime-solving characters who've paved the way for today's female detectives, and see what makes them all — the old and the new — great role models.

Marketing visionary Martin Lindstrom has been on the front lines of the branding wars for over twenty years. In "Brandwashed", he turns the spotlight on his own industry, drawing on all he has witnessed behind closed doors, exposing for the first time the full extent of the psychological tricks and traps that companies devise to win our hard-earned money. "Brandwashed" is a shocking insider's look at how today's global giants conspire to obscure the truth and manipulate our minds, all in service of persuading us to buy.Lindstrom reveals eye opening details such as: how advertisers and marketers target children at an alarmingly young age - starting when they are still in the womb, what heterosexual men really think about when they see sexually provocative advertising, how marketers and retailers stoke the flames of public panic and capitalize on paranoia over diseases, extreme weather events, and food contamination scares, the first ever evidence proving how addicted we all are to our iPhones and our Blackberrys, and how certain companies, like the maker of one popular lip balm, purposely adjust their formulas in order to make their products chemically addictive, and much, much more.
More books by Martin Lindstrom
Following on his earlier works, "Buyology" and "Brandsense", Lindsrom illustrates how shoppers are engaged as soon as they enter a supermarket. Fresh vegetables and fruit are always at the front and presented in the freshest possible way via, e.g. spraying water on the ware. Staple items are usually found at the back of a store, forcing the consumer to walk through the market. Displays and location on the shelf (eye level) further influence what we buy. Technology is increasingly at work in that retailers keep track of what we have bought and incentivize us to buy more by offering discounts for products we have previously purchased. Often, when passing the bakery section, there will be a "freshly baked bread scent" which sends appealing sensory cues. Virtually nothing is left to chance. He talks about how shopping cart sizes have increased, encouraging the consumer to buy more. He gives some practical advice on how the consumer can counter some of the stimuli: paying in cash, using a basket instead of a cart, etc.

After the long winter and the snow that has piled up, Major League Baseball groundskeepers are working hard to get fields ready for play. Frost on some fields is being measured in feet not inches. Boston Red Sox groundskeepers feel confident they can have the Fenway field ready for the home opener on April 4th.
Shane Victorino had two hits and four runs batted in, and the Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-1, in Boston on Wednesday night to win their third World Series in 10 years.
I was notified yesterday that the children part of the after school program wanted to tell the world about their love for the Boston Red Sox.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Human rights always an issue
Alleged attack on Jewish girl -- and support -- heighten urgency
The 15-year-old Winnipeg boy accused of an attack against a Jewish girl has supporters on the Internet. Since you can find people online who believe Elvis is alive and Hitler merely misunderstood, this is not an epiphany.
It is a strong argument this country needs the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. Religious or ethnically based violence and hatred have no place here or elsewhere. When it occurs and when it is publicly supported we are reminded why the past and its repercussions can't be forgotten.
Related Items
It seems Facebook has become our culture's town square, a collection of rumour, inanity, misinformation and occasional brilliance. It is popular with the young, free from the hardships of earning a living and more inclined to instantly share their likes, dislikes and YouTube videos.
The accused allegedly set fire to a female student's hair after uttering an anti-Semitic remark. It is possible he will face hate-crime charges. He is pictured on his Facebook page wearing a sweatshirt proclaiming he loves "haters." This seems a case of misery loving company.
As two Free Press reporters revealed in Tuesday's paper, some teens have been vocal in their support of the boy.
"None of it was true," wrote one girl of the alleged incident.
"He told me he burned her hair as a joke. But like barely any like maybe a centimeter (sic) of her hair," said a second, adding "I think its (sic) so dumb that their (sic) pressing charges."
"HA we heard about that at Glenlawn," wrote a boy, "... apparently it was a hate crime because he said something that was anti-Semitic before doing it."
"HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING F**K," wrote girl No. 1. "I hate her (the alleged victim) because shes (sic) a bitch nothing more to it."
What elevates the exchanges to public debate is the allegation this was a hate crime. The B'nai Brith denounced the alleged attack as proving "the durability of anti-Semitism." Tuesday afternoon, the Canadian Council on American-Islamic Relations also condemned the incident.
"Canadians -- Muslims and non-Muslims -- stand united in our condemnation of this alleged anti-Semitic attack and all crimes motivated by xenophobia and hatred," a CAIR-CAN statement read. "An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us."
On Tuesday afternoon, the CMHR held its first annual public meeting. The museum project has been mired in controversy since its inception. Open loathing has been expressed toward the Asper family, their religious community and the assumed inequities between the proposed depictions of the Holocaust and other atrocities.
In fact, anti-Semitism has dogged the museum since the day Izzy Asper first conceived of the project.
Some of the public concerns were valid. Our tax dollars are contributing to this project. There needs to be accountability. Other complaints have their genesis in ignorance or the reflexive reaction of naysayers to visionaries who insist this city can be an inspiration to others.
Few can logically argue against the value of a human rights museum as an entity, leaving aside opinions on public funding and the perceived import given to any number of atrocities.
"Canadians expect us to get it right," museum president Stuart Murray said Tuesday afternoon.
We do. We can't forget. We can't forget the Holocaust, the Holodomor, residential schools or remote communities with no running water. We win nothing by denouncing an attempt to shine a light on the atrocities of the past in an attempt to lead us to a better future.
If we don't, we should always remember the rasp of a disposable lighter as a teenage boy sets fire to the hair of a Jewish girl. And then we should anticipate the cries of approval from the misguided and the truly evil.

Selinger had a better option for a tax increase
3:00 AM 0About Lindor Reynolds
National Newspaper Award winner Lindor Reynolds began work at the Free Press as a 17-year-old proofreader. It was a rough introduction to the news business.
Many years later, armed with a university education and a portfolio of published work, she was hired as a Free Press columnist. During her 20-plus years on the job she has written for every section in the paper, with the exception of Business. She'll get around to them some day.
Lindor has received considerable recognition for her writing. Her awards include the Will Rogers Humanitarian Award, the National Society of Newspaper Columnists' general interest award and the North American Travel Journalists Association top prize.
Her work on Internet luring led to an amendment to the Criminal Code of Canada and her coverage of the child welfare system prompted a change to Manitoba Child and Family Services Act to make the safety of children paramount.
She has earned three citations of merit for the Michener Award for Meritorious Public Service in Journalism and has been awarded a Distinguished Alumni commendation from the University of Winnipeg. Lindor was also named a YMCA/YWCA Woman of Distinction.
She is married with four daughters. If her house was on fire and the kids and dog were safe, she'd grab her passport.

I also understood that while this movie is deliberately constructed so that almost nobody will "get it" or like it – and I'm not sure how I feel about that perversity – it's a masterpiece despite that, or because of that or just anyway.
Life and death, nature and culture, sex and money, man and beast, God and the Devil — Post Tenebras Lux embraces the world even if it doesn't open itself up to ready interpretation.
Post Tenebras Lux is that real rarity in cinema, a visually striking archaeology of the psyche that benefits both the moviegoer primed to engage Reygadas' ideas, and the ones open to being swallowed in an art film wave.
Apr 29, 2013Post Tenebras Lux works so well because – even at its most random – it always feels like more of a single portrait of a man in crisis than it does an impish bouquet of provocative incidents.

Scalabrine: KG's game missing Rondo
Kevin Garnett didn't look quite right tonight.
For one, he was plagues by foul trouble all night long, and never looked to really get into the flow of the game.
He also looked to be grabbing his side in the second half of the game.
Brian Scalabrine wasn't sure whether KG was injured or not, but he did know one reason KG might look a little out of sorts.
"Yeah what I see is Rajon Rondo is not on this team anymore," Scalabrine said. "Rajon Rondo can get KG a wide open look when he has the extra time. in the NBA a foot makes a difference, an inch makes a difference whether you make the shot or miss the shot. KG is taking more contested shots now than he did before. Rondo always had that ability to get Kevin Garnett his rhythm, and now he doesn't, so Kevin has to fabricate his own rhythm. That's not the way that you want to have Kevin Garnett to play. you want him to have a nice balance of deep post ups, post ups off the block, and also some pick and pop jumpers."

Star Jones Plays Defense On Larry King: It's All Business, Baby
Copy/Paste this code to post on your blog!
Last night Star Jones began her aggressive defense on Larry King Live, where her voice suddenly dropped from screaming product pusher into whispy victim. In between explaining how hard it is to go to work for two months knowing you're not going to be asked back (she says she found out on April 21, through her agent, that ABC didn't want her back) and denying she was ever paid or given free merch for on-air product plugs ("Under no circumstances"), Star also delved into her dramatic weight loss. And by "delved" we mean hyped up the importance of privacy – "You're talking my health, Larry. You're not talking my shoes." – as reason not to explain the "medical" attention she received to "save" her life. By watching the above clip, we by no means expect your opinion of Star to change. For us, however, it's her her closing quote of this conversation that'll resonate the longest: "Gosh, Larry, you ask the tough questions." Indeed, Star. Indeed he does.
(And on an interesting programming note, CNN is re-airing last night's Larry King at 11am today — which means it's facing off against, you guessed it, The View. Which was previously recorded. And features Star Jones.)
the racism of this publication is so obvious it is even stupid why you don't come out of the closet big time!

In The Risk Premium Factor: A New Model for Understanding theVolatile Forces That Drive Stock Prices, Stephen D. Hassettpresents a radical new theory—the "factor" that explainstheentire stock market, providing a definitive link between lossaversion theory, the equity risk premium, and stock price, andshows how you can make the most of the connection.
Where others have tried and failed to find a link between lossaversion and the processes that control how investors set prices inthe stock market, The Risk Premium Factor succeeds.Demonstrating that the equity risk premium is proportional tolong-term Treasury yields, the book establishes for the first timea quantitative connection between loss aversion and equity riskpremium.
This remarkable new concept can be used to explain stock pricesfrom 1960 through to the present day, including the 2008 financialmeltdown, not through theories and simulations, but with historicaldata that bear out the truth. It shows how the S&P 500 hasconsistently reverted to predicted values and solves the equitypremium puzzle by showing that it is consistent with findings onloss aversion. Putting you back in the driver's seat when it comesto investing, the book clearly demonstrates the stock market'sreptilian-like response to three factors drive valuation and stockprice: earnings, long-term growth, and interest rates. This bookalso includes a companion website with historical data,calculators, and links to additional apps and readings.
Dispelling the notions that the stock market is a mysteriousarbiter of value, when, in fact, it is easy to understand the RiskPremium Factor Valuation Model is a game-changer for anyone whoworks in investments—from professional investors to corporatedecision makers to private individuals. After all, if you don'tunderstand how the market values businesses, you don't reallyunderstand the market at all.
"Stephen Hassett is onto something. His notion that the riskpremium on stocks is not constant, but varies with the risk freerate, helps to explain an enduring puzzle: why actual stock pricesvary from the estimates that analysts' models imply. This book willoffer fresh and provocative insight to careful students of thestock market. Read it and grow wiser."—Robert F. Bruner, Deanand Charles C. Abbott Professor of Business Administration, DardenGraduate School of Business, University of Virginia
"The equity risk premium is a key input to the cost of capital.During periods of economic stability, practitioners typically usedan estimate of the long-term average equity risk premium, typicallyadjusting the estimate once a year. But all that changed as thecrisis in late 2008 unfolded. In these uncertain economic times, wehave found the Risk Premium Factor Valuation Model to be a powerfultool for adjusting our equity risk premium estimate as we movethrough the rapidly changing business cycle. We recommend thatpractitioners use the Risk Premium Factor Valuation Model to betterunderstand the economic interrelationships that drive the pricingof the broad stock market and the equity risk premium."—RogerJ. Grabowski, Managing Director, Duff & Phelps LLC and coauthorof Cost of Capital: Applications and Examples
"Understanding and accurately estimating the cost of capital isfundamental to making decisions that create value. StephenHassett's Risk Premium Factor Valuation Model provides aneasy-to-understand approach to estimating the cost of equitycapital that is accessible and insightful to those with a basicunderstanding of finance and expert practitioners alike. Further,it demystifies the drivers of market valuation and provides acompelling and often under-appreciated linkage between growth andstock price. It will enrich the perspective of any investor ormanager."—David M. Kostel, Managing Director and Co-Head ofHealthcare Mergers & Acquisitions, Credit Suisse

Free Press sports writer Dave Birkett breaks down three possible draft outcomes for the Lions:
Fingers crossed
Round 1, pick 23: CB Dre Kirkpatrick, Alabama.
Round 2, pick 55: LB Lavonte David, Nebraska.
Round 3, pick 85: RB Chris Polk, Washington.
The thinking: Barring a top-15 talent like, say, Mark Barron sliding, Kirkpatrick is the best option if he's available in the first round. He's big and physical, and the Lions have a glaring need at cornerback. David could come off the board earlier, but free agency showed how the value of linebackers has slipped. Still, he's a playmaker. Polk fills a hole on offense.
Plan B
Round 1, pick 23: DE Whitney Mercilus, Illinois.
Round 2, pick 55: RB LaMichael James, Oregon.
Round 3, pick 85: CB Josh Norman, Coast. Carolina.
The thinking: If Kirkpatrick and South Carolina's Stephon Gilmore are gone, the Lions choose between pass rushers Mercilus and Chandler Jones of Syracuse. Defensive end is a bigger need than most realize considering Cliff Avril's contract stalemate and the importance of the position. James is insurance for Jahvid Best at a position the Lions value, and Norman is a big corner who fills an immediate need.
The fallback
Round 1, pick 23: OL Cordy Glenn, Georgia.
Round 2, pick 55: CB Trumaine Johnson, Montana.
Round 3, pick 85: WR Keshawn Martin, MSU.
The thinking: The Lions return their entire offensive line so Glenn doesn't have to start Day 1, but he can play guard or right tackle and adds youth to an aging front. Johnson is another big corner with athleticism who projects as a future starter. And while the Lions would love to land a speedster like Georgia Tech's Stephen Hill to help their receiving corps, Martin is a perfect slot man and punt returner.

"'We've been running around for the past couple of days trying to find it,' said 16-year-old Joey Balinski, looking downcast after coming up iPod-less at another store. 'I would have asked for it for Christmas a couple of years ago, but I figured by now it would be easier to find. [...]
'It still beat our overestimating expectations,' said Kawika Holbrook, assistant manager at the Apple Store at Westfield Shoppingtown Valley Fair, noting his store had sold thousands since Thanksgiving. Plus, fate may have conspired against a few iPod lovers. A large FedEx MD-10 airplane that caught fire Thursday in Memphis had a load of iPods on it, Holbrook said. 'The picture was being passed around the Net, and we were like, 'No!' 'Apple has not said whether any iPods were damaged, or whether that affected late-season availability."

I saw that on TV, the pilots jumped out of the cockpit windows…all those poor ipods went up in smoke, glad the pilots are ok.

This is why my mom shouldn't have given me a 10GB when I asked for a 20GB with the thought that I would be able to upgrade it.
Posted by TacoJohn on December 26, 2003 at 9:59 AM (CST)
now they are saying the pilot was color blind and thats why it crashed, he couldnt read the warning lights properly
Posted by keebie on December 26, 2003 at 10:17 AM (CST)
they don't let people who are color blind fly planes.
shame about the ipods though.
Posted by koto on December 26, 2003 at 4:12 PM (CST)
ya but they let this guy fly even though he was color blind

There's an iPod shortage? They had stacks of the things when I stopped by my local Apple store this afternoon (Columbus, Ohio). I guess it all depends on where you live.
Posted by Mountain Man on December 26, 2003 at 9:21 PM (CST)
the colorblind pilot is from an accident that happened in TLH about a year ago!
Posted by vsi0 on December 26, 2003 at 9:35 PM (CST)
Maybe the same pilot crashed two planes.
Posted by Adam on December 26, 2003 at 10:16 PM (CST)
oh, haha i just noticed that in the article. maybe fedex hires colorblind pilots

'Apple has not said whether any iPods were damaged'
About the only way no Ipods were damaged in this flight is if they were in the crew's pockets as they evacuated the plane!!! ;)
Posted by jimlat on December 27, 2003 at 11:12 AM (CST)
I live here in town where the plane went down. I know people that work at Fed-Ex and living in the city with the hub you always do. The information I have says that if anything was damaged on the plane, it is very little. All the packages are in containers that can burn but offer some protection from the outside. The fire was from the right engine and wing and stayed mostly to the outside of the plane. Fire crews were ready to put the fire out when the plane touched down and had it out very quickly. If there is any slowdown in the delivery of the iPods from this then it will be because of the NTSB investigation. There is a chance of damage internaly but the plane stayed intact increasing the chances of recovery of cargo. Lets just wait for the offical word to see what happens. Good Day.

CHICAGO – Canadian consumers report eating an average of 3.3 sandwiches per week, and 35 percent of them say they eat a sandwich at least every other day, according to a new study titled Canadian Sandwich Consumer Trend Report from Technomic Inc. Data indicates there are more opportunities for operators and suppliers to increase share of sandwich occasions and boost sales; 39 percent of the sandwiches consumers eat are sourced away from home.
Improving sandwich quality can improve sandwich sales. Compared to the past, today's consumers place a higher importance on the quality of meat, bread, cheese and condiments in creating a good sandwich. Quality is often times tied to health, and data indicates only 44 percent of consumers are satisfied with the healthfulness of sandwiches away-from-home.
"Operators need to focus on the quality of their sandwiches to help drive traffic and steal share," said Darren Tristano, executive vice president of Technomic Inc. "Restaurants should integrate quality in a way that aligns with their concept's positioning. For example, certain concepts can emphasize sandwich quality and improve health perceptions at the same time through better-for-you sandwich claims, such as fresh, artisan or made-from-scratch."

Learn something new — on fertilization

When we get busy I'm apt to forget my quest to learn something new every day.

And it's a treat whether I'm learning something totally […] -
What to do when it's January-ish
(Jan 16, '15)
So far, to me, this winter has not seemed as winter-ish as winter usually is. Of course, I'm knocking wood as I say that. Although I love the way a good layer of snow blankets the landscape (and insulates our plants), I'm grateful to not have to shovel or trudge over and through giant banks […] -
Warming up

A lot of people ask us what we do here in the winter. –A particularly legitimate question when the weather outside is as unpleasant as it has been this week as temperatures plunged and the wind whipped. We always answer, "a lot." And luckily for Gail, Betsy, and me, most of it is inside-work. Holidays behind […]

In an effort to prevent what happened last Christmas season to a first grader at a California school who was stopped by his teacher from passing out candy canes with a Christian message to his classmates, religious freedom lawyers have filed a request for a preliminary injunction in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.
Last year, when Isaiah Martinez brought his Christmas gifts to Merced Elementary in the West Covina Unified School District, his teacher took possession of the candy canes. At the direction of the school principal, the teacher instructed Isaiah that "Jesus is not allowed in school" and she removed the candy cane messages from each candy cane, threw the messages in the trash, and handed the candy canes back to Isaiah for delivery to his classmates, according to Advocates for Faith & Freedom.
Isaiah then "nervously handed the candy canes to his classmates in fear that he was in trouble for trying to bring a little Christmas cheer and 'good tidings' to class," AFF stated. The canes no longer had a message attached that recited the legend of a candy maker who created the candy cane to symbolize the life of Jesus Christ. more >>
The Vatican announced Tuesday that Pope Francis will set up a panel to help process the "backlog" of appeals from priests who've been accused of committing sexual abuse against minors. The new judicial body, or college, will be overseen by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
"Hearing the appeals is a very important job, especially those on abuse of minors, and the backlog of cases is at risk of absorbing all the time of the congregation," Vatican spokesman Fr. Federico Lombardi told The Tablet, a Catholic news weekly.
"[The accused] shall have his case examined by the whole body of members of the congregation, the ordinary session, which may also examine other specific cases upon papal request, and/or examine cases referred to it by the newly created college," he added. more >>
A federal judge ordered South Carolina officials to stop enforcing the state's ban on gay marriage on Wednesday. District Judge Richard Gergel gave the state a one-week stay to appeal, but same-sex couples could begin filing for marriage licenses on Nov. 20.
"The court hereby declares that [the South Carolina constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage], to the extent they seek to prohibit the marriage of same-sex couples who otherwise meet all other legal requirements for marriage in South Carolina, unconstitutionally infringe on the rights of plaintiffs under the due process clause and equal protection clause of the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution, and are invalid as a matter of law," the ruling stated, according to NBC affiliate WIS.
Gergel added that he found no real distinction between South Carolina's ban on same-sex marriage and a similar ban that was declared unconstitutional in Virginia. Gergel said that the earlier decision in Virginia "establishes, without question, the right of plaintiffs to marry as same-sex partners." more >>
NEW YORK — Ferguson, Missouri, — and perhaps the entire nation — is bracing for a grand jury decision on whether or not police officer Darren Wilson will be indicted for the fatal shooting of Michael Brown. At least one Christian and social justice activist is calling on people of faith to pray, for whatever might ensue once the verdict is revealed, while local churches are planning for overnight vigils.
If news headlines are any indication — "Missouri Governor Outlines Ferguson Preparations;" "Gun sales spike as Ferguson area braces for grand jury decision;" "New Riot Gear at the Ready in Ferguson" — the atmosphere in the 21,000-person St. Louis suburb is taut with anxiety.
Although no one knows for certain when the grand jury's decision will come, St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Robert McCulloch, whose office will make public the decision, has said in a statement that he does not expect the grand jury to give word "until mid to late November." more >>
Missouri Governor Jay Nixon addressed the town of Ferguson on Tuesday and revealed a plan for handling any civil disturbances in the aftermath of the grand jury's decision whether to indict officer Darren Wilson.
"The [National] Guard will be available when we determine it is necessary to support local law enforcement," Nixon said at a press conference. "Quite simply, we must and will be fully prepared. As governor, the most important part of my job is keeping the people of Missouri safe."
The town of Ferguson has been preparing for the grand jury's verdict as to whether Officer Darren Wilson will be indicted in the shooting of unarmed teen, Michael Brown. Wilson shot and killed Brown in August, leading to outrage among the citizens of Ferguson. There were several protests, peaceful and not peaceful, that have continued even now. The state has been trying to work with the public to better relations between officials and the public. However, Nixon's press conference upset some people and seemingly made things worse. more >>
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor temporarily stopped a lower court decision that would have allowed gay marriages in Kansas.
Justice Sotomayor issued a one-page preliminary injunction Monday per the request of Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt, but she also directed the American Civil Liberties Union to respond to the stay.
"IT IS ORDERED that the preliminary injunction entered by the United State District Court for the District of Kansas on November 4, 2014, is hereby stayed pending receipt of a response, due on or before Tuesday, November 11, 2014, by 5 p.m. ET, and further order of the undersigned or of the Court," read the stay. more >>


text: Burry Port Lifeboat Station (near Llanelli, Carmarthenshire, Wales) first opened in 1887, with all funds coming from a legacy left by Mr and Mrs Barclay. The station was moved to Burry Port, due to the original lifeboat based at Llanelli being deemed too far away to be helpful; and the previous station based in Pembrey put at risk due to storms. The station was closed for over half a decade between 1914 and 1973 as it was deemed un-needed by the RNLI. The station currently operates a D class lifeboat named The Young Watsons.

HP Spending $1 Billion On Big Data This Year
Hewlett-Packard is planning to invest close to $1 billion this year in R&D and marketing for its big data software portfolio. HP Software chief George Kadifa told CRN about $800 million is going to Vertica and Autonomy, with the rest being spent on joint projects between HP Software and the storage team in HP's Enterprise Group.
"We believe that's a huge number, especially compared to our competition in the marketplace," Kadifa told CRN in a recent interview. "That's in addition to the $11 billion we spent on [acquiring] Autonomy and Vertica."
