"Best" is a subjective term. I can pick my favorites. Blackmore hands down my favorite.
Earl Slick (who?) is #2 on my list (good enough for Bowie and Lennon, good enough for me).
Vernon Reid of Living Colour...(good enough for Jagger...).
Another suprise pick would be taking Billy Duffy of The Cult at #4 (Sonic Temple has to be the best guitar album of all-time).
#5 I might go with Townsend just for his writing skills, creativity, and the man bleeds for his music.
I'm sure tomorrow I could come back with someone completely different at 3, 4, and 5, but Blackmore and Slick stay 1-2 for me.
But then I'm just a mule....and a drummer.... (which reminds me...what about Lifeson???

Olympics Don't Ease U.S. Russian Strain
Just outside the spotlight of these Olympic games in Sochi, Russia and the U.S. are navigating a tense point in their relationship. Host Ben Kieffer talks with Wayne Moyer, Rosenfield Professor of Political Science at Grinnell College and Tim Hagel, Associate Professor of Political Science at University of Iowa about the tension and the ongoing cooperation between the U.S and Russia. They also reflect on the U.S. relationship with France, and its strategic importance now in dealings with Iran, as President Obama hosts French President Francois Hollande. A discussion of those issues, as well as an increase in the debt ceiling and a delay in implementing the Affordable Care Act, on this edition of

Forceful and outspoken, Christopher Viehbacher led Sanofi SA for almost six years before he was ousted Wednesday after a spectacular boardroom falling-out.
Sanofi Chairman Serge Weinberg said Mr. Viehbacher's departure was prompted by his uncommunicative management style.
The board was also concerned by Mr. Viehbacher's poor execution last year, when it missed analysts' earnings expectations, and by recent problems in Sanofi's diabetes business, Mr. Weinberg told analysts on a call. Read More »

Tuition at the University of Minnesota's College of Veterinary Medicine keeps going up.
Joe Armstrong of St Louis Park is a U of M vet student.
According to Marianne Stebbins, chair of Ron Paul's Minnesota campaign, "liberty" Republicans apparently cherish the freedom to "drink raw milk from each other's farms" ("Minnesotans in mix as GOP fights over its brand," Aug. 27).
But, if they need a veterinarian to care for a sick cow, they may be out of luck. With cutbacks in state support for higher education, tuition at the University of Minnesota's College of Veterinary Medicine keeps going up.
With cutbacks in federal funding, Minnesota got no funds in the federal loan repayment program that offers vet schools grads up to $25,000 annually for three years if they practice in underserved areas.
Moreover, graduate students no longer qualify for federally subsidized Stafford loans. Coming out of school with an average student loan debt topping $140,000, fewer and fewer vets can afford to serve rural areas. I suppose there is a libertarian solution to the problem.
Perhaps vet students can follow Mitt Romney's suggestion and borrow the money from their parents.

3 Snaaaaaaaaaakeeeeee...!!!Milbury | 01/08/2008 | See all Milbury's reviews (1)Crikey, in the time I've been thinking about what to write (about 2wks) the price of this game has gone from the £18.00 I bought it to almost £60.00, and completely changes my review!!For £60.00, buy this if you are a mental fanboy completist. Otherwise just get the standard edition, you'll get the main game and a few extras (the VR missions aren't super amazing anyway, more like the same little mission played out over and again with different characters).If you are desperate for the whole Substance package, you might want to know that you can actually pick up the Xbox version, with an Xbox to play it on for less than the PS2 game at the moment.So in conclusion, excellenty main game worthy of 5 stars, the 'substance' extra's are in way worth the extra £55.00 you'll pay for 'em so they now get a 0 star rating. Average score for metal gear solid substance - 3
5 It doesn't get any better than this!!!!11musy31 | 07/06/2008 | See all musy31's reviews (26)This is clearly one of the best games on ps2. The first major reason is its storyline which amazes me each time I play through it. The gameplay is not far off either as it is pretty slick and responsive. You can shoot raiden or snakes guns from first person view but you move around in third person. The sound for this game is on par with the graphics which are some of the most amazing graphics to grace the ps2. The cutscenes combine wonderful slick graphics with the most amazing soundtrack seen in a video game. The soundtrack which is composed by harry gregson williams, a top hollywood composer, gives the game an epic feeling never felt before in a video game.One major downpoint is the length of the game which will only last 10-15 hours. While this may put some gamers off it didn't put me off as i kept going back for the extras and also this version of MGS 2 includes various extra missions which are a wonderful treat.To conclude, this is my personal favourite game and will be enjoyed by everyone. Go out and buy it, and if you enjoy it buy the other metal gear games too, specifically metal gear solid 3.
4 Why Raiden?TheSmithmeister | 21/06/2009 | See all TheSmithmeister's reviews (24)You cant dislike the MGS games although having said that this is the worst game in the series but only because the other games are so good. Another thing thats wrong with it is what was Hideo Kojima thinking replacing Solid Snake with whiny man child Raiden, the codec conversations between him and his girlfriend Rose just made me cringe. Overall this is still a pretty good game that fleshes out the story of the series quite a bit definetly worth a play although it may be better to buy the Sons Of Liberty standard edition instead not worth paying over the odds.

Whenever I take photos, I tend to focus on an individual object, whether it's a bug, a flower, or a tree; I like to focus in on the unique qualities inherent in each one. I strive to cause the viewer to pause long enough to take a closer look at common objects or scenes; for it's not always the size, but the beauty that holds your attention. I love nature photography, because, in fact, I simply take a photo of what God has created, and I'm constantly amazed at the beautiful detail in His handiwork!
My husband, Donnie, and I have enjoyed visiting the Nathanael Greene/Close Memorial Gardens for years, and I practically never come without my camera in hand. The Gardens are not only constantly changing with the Seasons, but also, ever-changing, with the addition of new garden areas being developed continually. With this transient nature in mind, I strive to capture beautiful moments in time through my photography.
The time and dedication that the Friends of the Garden lovingly put into the care of the Gardens makes it a pleasant and refreshing experience for all that visit. Some of our favorite areas of the Gardens are the beautiful Rose Garden and the relaxing Hosta Garden, and the Bill Roston Butterfly House is always a delightful, learning experience. Whether we take a leisurely stroll around Lake Drummond, or go for the more unique sights in the Mizumoto Japanese Stroll Gardens, it's definitely one of our favorite places to go for a walk in Springfield.
My husband and I also frequent many other natural parks and gardens in Missouri and Arkansas; in particular, Dunnegan Park in Bolivar, and Powell Gardens near Warrensburg.

There's of course no official definition of what constitutes a film noir, but some of the ones on the list do strike me as falling outside the usual limits. I adore Hitchcock, but don't think anything he did can be described as film noir.

Hi, Orleata, Yes, I have seen the reference to Catharina Dressler as the wife of George Frederick. I have checked with another researcher who lives in Penn. He has found no Catherina in the family. There was a Christina Dressler as a sponsor of one of G. Frederick's children. These people were usually relatives. If anyone, can find proof it would be great. Margaret

Simple Scene
The church clock strikes eight, so those villagers who are awake know without checking that it is six. A cock crows. A body lies across the doorstep of the church, a line of crumb-carrying ants marches across the fedora covering its face. There is a serene, momentary quiet after the chimes cease. A figure glides past the church wall, before the silence is cracked by baby crying.
Silence is broken in a small household down the street as a baby cries after awaking from its slumber in need of nourishment leaning tiresomely against a broomstick from a hard nights work with no end to her torment the woman is dead to the world. In an instant her world is crushed again with a simple slip of her hand and she wakes to the cold kiss of the slate flooring holding her head in pain as she struggles to her feet only to find the baby nagging her for breakfast.
Sighing in grief she fixes the infant a warm bottle of milk taken from their very own cow in the dir
prometheus_cthis isn't the beginning of a new end or the fall of an old empire, but something entirely different. it's something a little like the quiet after a fight or the silence as a hundred people walk past you in a [lonely] crowded city. this is something like that.prometheus_c by Sepulchral-Roses
this is what it might feel like to become everything around you, to forget you exist. this is like realizing that it'll come back to haunt you, this is remembering you're not immortal. this is the few coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer, and this is like the first time you tried a little, and you still fell. this is something like that.
but this is also like reaching the bottom of that ice-cream cone and being the first to get to the top of the jungle gym [but only to realize you can't get back down]. this is something like finding that even though you finished last, condolences are paid handsomely [by bright green eyes and a comforting hug]. this is something like that.

The Bard Upstaged?Hamlet's Soliloquy: So Easy, A Caveman Can Do It?The Bard Upstaged? by halfangelrisesagain
"To be or not to be-that is the question:" is one of the most well known lines to come out of Hamlet. From Act III, Scene 1, Lines 58-92, Hamlet delivers a power speech that has survived not only survived with the rest of the play, but it also has survived on it's own. Whether it has been re-enacted by Shakespearian actors either on stage or on the big screen, or it has been redone either to fit in for a commercial purpose, or it has been re-created just for fun. One example that I have found while researching for re-created examples of the soliloquy, in which one person has re-written it in the style of Dr. Seuss, that is, in rhyme.
A personal example, which has inspired me to write this piece, came from a day last school year when my friend and I were waiting around for an elevator to take us to his floor in Hill Hall. As we were standing there waiting, we randomly made up o
Just maybe?Ok, I am an Anti-Twilight person as you may know from seeing some of my drawings and my favourites...Just maybe? by Maria-Mimosa
Here's something what I have to say:
Anti-Twilighters might be (as you say) as annoying and terrible as the (obsessed) Fangirls of Twilight and Robert Pattinson
But we are highly different from them...
Us Anti-Twilighters we... (reasoning may not apply to all...)
1. Never cross the line by threatening someone's life or assaulting them just because someone said they like twilight. We respect what they like and their taste, even if they get annoying by talking about it too much.
2. Have another things to daydream than to think how "hot" Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen or Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black...
3. Use many different topics in conversation to get to know other people than just speak too much over just one fiction story.
4. Never dump our real life lovers just because they are not as perfect as a fictional character who is a supernatural creature.
5. Do NOT approve p

Riot is gonna blow our minds and make her a tank....at least I hope.
Yngve Zephyrous
Why does everyone think she's black? In her concept art, she definitely looks to be of Asian descent, except that her eyes are too stereotypically "slanty," and though her actual model appears more ambiguous, she still looks more Eastern to me. Also, there are Asians with darker skin; this woman does not appear to be of African descent to me. If she is, the percentage of her African lineage is very small, or it's Middle-Eastern.

Statistics Canada data released Friday paints a mixed picture of the province's job numbers. It says the number of people working in the province rose by 700 over November, but the yearto-year increase was 14,800.
Saskatchewan's complicated and "uncompetitive" royalty regime for potash has cost taxpayers billion of dollars in foregone revenue, hamstrung the industry, and needs to be reformed, according to a report by one of Canada's most respected tax experts.
The problem with doing your job well in opposition is that there is always the potential for the government to do its job well, too - by doing what the opposition suggests.

Despite a big drop in oil prices siphoning off cash from Saskatchewan's economy, the province will still likely set records in 2014 for population growth, jobs created, manufacturing sales and wholesale trade.

A photograph of a supper served on Christmas Day at a special-care home appearing on social media sites, sparked a debate between the NDP and the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region (RQHR) about nutrition.
Wearing a Scandinavian sweater as a nod to his family heritage, longtime Regina Lakeview NDP MLA John Nilson announced his intention to sit out the next election.
Zap! You're frozen! If only the solution to Saskatchewan's budgetary mess was that simple.
Quite often, politicians offer sage advice to the masses ... although perhaps not always in the exact context intended.
The provincial NDP is calling once again for the Saskatchewan government to end its use of public-private partnership (P3) funding models.
Certification, investigation of misconduct, and discipline of Saskatchewan teachers will be handled by a new board under legislation introduced by the provincial government and tabled Wednesday.
The Minister Responsible for SaskPower, Bill Boyd, apologizes if not everything has been clear about an $18-million refund the province could get for the Sensus smart meter issue.
As the Saskatchewan government continues on the road to building public-private partnership (P3) schools, B.C.'s provincial auditor says that same funding model will cost her province millions in extra debt payments.
The Saskatchewan government vows to "make whole" anyone who sustained property damage from smart meter fires.
Whodunit? Was it SaskPower management or the provincial cabinet that decided this summer to not only halt the Crown utility's program to install smart meters in customers' homes and businesses, but yank them out? That question consumed all of Monday's question period in the legislature, with the government saying it's possible SaskPower management and the cabinet came to the same decision around the same time, while the NDP called this interpretation "ludicrous."
Until Wednesday, the narrative from the Sask. Party government on the smart meter fiasco went something like this: Sask Power announces smart meter program in 2010, problems with meters arise in 2014, but SaskPower minimizes problems and carries on with program.
Those who pine for the days of true ministerial accountability should understand one thing: It hasn't existed for a very long time.
Saskatchewan's Opposition says the government put 400 homes at risk when it failed to remove smart meters known to have safety issues.
Bill Boyd, the minister responsible for SaskPower, "can't recall" whether he ever saw a ministerial briefing note about smart meters catching fire in the U.S. Nor can he recall if there was ever a face-to-face meeting about the note.

Experts fear risk for life insurersBy MARY WILLIAMS WALSH
The New York Times | December 02,2012Jeb Wallace-Brodeur / Staff File Photo
National life Groups Montpelier headquarters pictured at dusk. The insurance company is one of many undergoing study on the rise of so-called off balance sheet transactions that critics say hide risk.WASHINGTON After more than a year studying a surge of intricate financial deals in the life insurance industry, regulators said Thursday that they had found transactions that could give the industry a black eye, but could not agree on what to do about them.
There are some transactions out there that were not comfortable with, and were not sure youd be comfortable with, Douglas Slape, chairman of the research panel, told a ballroom full of industry representatives at a conference in suburban Washington. We cant go into the details because its confidential.
Differences among the panelists soon became apparent as the group laid out its findings. Some expressed concern that insurers were betting the policyholders money, while others argued that the transactions were carefully vetted and safe.
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners convened the research project, in part, in response to an article in The New York Times on the growing practice among life insurers of offloading huge numbers of policies into opaque, off-balance-sheet subsidiaries. The transactions, often valued in the hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, can improve the appearance of the insurers balance sheets and free up money for other projects, or to pay shareholder dividends.
The Times article questioned whether the use of the special-purpose vehicles meant a shadow insurance industry was being created, outside the usual reach of state insurance regulators.
Diverging views among Thursdays panel of state regulators pose a problem because the transactions often involve an insurer in one state, a subsidiary in another, and policies sold to customers in any number of other states. States, rather than the federal government, are the primary regulators of the nations insurance companies.
Our entire financial solvency system falls apart if there is not uniformity among state regulators, said Joseph Torti, a panelist from Rhode Island. We need to be able to understand what our sister states are doing.
Separately, New York state is conducting its own investigation of the off-balance-sheet insurance deals. This year it called on the insurers under its jurisdiction to provide detailed information about their special-purpose subsidiaries, why they had created them, and whether the subsidiaries were counting assets that the insurer itself would not be allowed to include on its balance sheet.
The off-balance-sheet vehicles are designated captives, under state insurance law, even though they do not resemble conventional captives, which are typically used by noninsurance companies as a vehicle to insure the companys own risks.
Conventional captives were not subject to the regulatory panels scrutiny. Some of the regulators expressed concern that the insurers were using the captive designation inappropriately, to take advantage of state laws that allow captives to keep all financial information secret.
The secrecy of the transactions was the biggest source of disagreement among the regulators.
We think there are things that are legitimately held confidential, said David Provost, the delegate from Vermont, the first state to allow captives. The captives often house just one very large transaction, and some companies say more disclosure would allow their competitors to find out their confidential strategies. Provost said insurance regulators in Vermont worked hard to keep their counterparts in other states informed.
Torti, the delegate from Rhode Island, disagreed. I have not heard, in all these deliberations, why any of this information should be confidential, he said. I think it should be available to the public, available to investors. It should be out there.
In recent years, some states passed laws allowing insurance companies to set up the subsidiaries, because they were perceived as creating good jobs.
Conventional state insurance regulation protects policyholders by requiring companies to set aside enough of the premium money they take in to build reserves to pay all future claims. Companies are also required to maintain a healthy surplus, and regulators can make them stop selling new policies if they fall too far short.
When the life insurers secure their policies through special-purpose vehicles, however, they can do so without building up a body of liquid, cashlike reserves, as prescribed by regulators.
Instead, they offer some form of collateral, like a letter of credit, to stand behind the policies. Some regulators said there were cases in which the collateral was inadequate and would not have been admitted under the usual regulatory standards.
Data compiled by SNL Financial, a data and news company, shows that the practice of securing life policies through a wholly owned subsidiary has grown sharply in the last five years. In 2006, the companies SNL surveyed used such subsidiaries for 31 percent of the policies they reinsured; by 2011, it was up to 45 percent.
SNL also found that while the practice was very popular at some companies, others did not use it at all. The American International Group used subsidiaries for nearly 80 percent of the life policies that it reinsured in 2011, for instance, while Northwestern Mutual used only unaffiliated reinsurers, where the terms would be set in an arms length transaction. Still others, like State Farm, were not reinsuring their life policies as of 2011.
New York Life, a modest user of affiliated reinsurers at 15 percent, submitted a written comment letter to the panel, warning of a system that encourages companies to circumvent statutory reserving standards by using complex structured transactions. It called for strong regulation that would allow only clean, unconditional collateral to backstop the reinsured policies.
New York Life also said that after artificially lowering their costs through the complex transactions, some companies were coming back to market and selling new policies to consumers at low prices.
Although lowering prices to consumers is generally a worthy objective, doing so at the expense of effective solvency regulation is inappropriate, the company stated. It can result in reserves being reduced below the level needed to protect policyholders.MORE IN National / World BusinessSAN FRANCISCO Apple CEO Tim Cook says consumer demand for new iPhones has been staggering and...

Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio has a big decision to make in regards to the eligibility of cornerback Chris L. Rucker. / RASHAUN RUCKER/DFP
You should never go from a jail cell to a college football field, so I sure hope Mark Dantonio doesn't reinstate cornerback Chris L. Rucker -- who is scheduled to get out of jail today -- in time for Saturday's game against Iowa.
We don't know for sure, because when Dantonio was asked this at his weekly news conference, and also was asked about a zero-tolerance policy on second chances, here was his response:
"Well, in both cases, I'll just not answer your question," Dantonio said Tuesday. "How's that?"
Not good. This is not some minor tussle between a focused coach and a prying media. This is about lives, crime, policy and standards. No time for the silent treatment.
For those just joining this story, Rucker, 22, is a very talented senior who was one of 15 Spartans at the scene of that dorm altercation last November. He pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and battery and received 12 months' probation. That probation included no buying, owning or drinking alcohol.
Yet three Sundays ago, Rucker was arrested at 2:19 a.m. and charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated. He had a blood-alcohol content of .10, which is over the legal limit of .08.
Drinking -- a probation buster -- would have been bad enough. Getting behind a wheel made it reprehensible.
The right words, the right time
Dantonio, a good guy, is clearly in the midst of a special season at Michigan State, one that, because of the coach's heart attack after the Notre Dame game, already has taught valuable lessons about life and health.
Why stop there? The lives and health of innocent people are endangered every time someone drinks and drives.
If the coach needs reminders, look no further than the football world or his own state. How about Cleveland's Donte Stallworth, driving while intoxicated and killing a pedestrian with his Bentley? How about Reggie Rogers, the former Lion, killing three teenagers while driving drunk? How about those four Lake Shore teens killed last year by a drunken driver?
This is not some injury update. This is not the time to say "none of your business." This is the time to say something like:
"We do not tolerate any of our players drinking and driving. Not a little bit. Not at all.
"And we do not tolerate our players violating probation. Not a little bit. Not at all.
"And so, no, Chris L. Rucker will not play this weekend or any weekend, because he has not lived up to the standards we have for our student-athletes in this program.
"Next question."
The state deserves to know
What's so hard about that? Instead, Dantonio chose to duck behind the "I'm not commenting on ... our personnel issues at this time."
This is not a "personnel" issue. This isn't some human resources department. It's a football team at a state university made up of kids who are mostly on scholarship. You don't get to keep this stuff secret. The citizens of the state have a right to know the standards at this school and on this team, especially when it comes to crimes.
And these were crimes. It doesn't matter if Rucker was just a little over the limit. Doesn't matter if he was, as court testimony indicated, only minimally involved in the dorm ruckus.
A little can lead to a lot, especially in bad habits, particularly in drinking. No surprise that a few years ago, Reggie Rogers, even after killing those teens, was arrested again for DUI (at least his instance), and actually fell asleep in the police car after calling an officer "Coach James."
Rogers was given extra chances, too.
Maybe Dantonio isn't even considering bringing Rucker back. If so, he should say it. In college football, a coach is there to mold young men, on the field and sometimes with tough love off it. I am not advocating throwing Rucker out of the Spartan family. After eight days in jail, he needs support, now more than ever.
But playing in a big game -- playing in any game -- is a privilege, and Dantonio should be sending that signal, even if it costs him a great player. Because there's something bigger at stake here.
It's called character.
And the coach shouldn't be quiet about it. He should shout it to the rafters.

Formerly called "Hat Khlong Haeng" which means dried up canal, Hat Noppharat Thara is the best place to have a picnic, to swim and to get lazy under the sun which is considered one of the best things to do in Krabi. This beach, lined with casuarinas and coconut trees, extends along the town of Krabi, giving visitors a scenic view of the sea. One of the main features of this beach spot happens during its low tide. It is when people can walk to the small islands that dot the side of the beach.
It is slowly becoming popular among the numerous Krabi attractions and thus a lot of new resorts are opening up for business along its seashore. The night is pretty much alive in the area because of the music and live bands that play here almost everyday. Getting in and out Hat Noppharat Thara is very convienient because there are several ferry boats that are available every hour coming from nearby ports.

Objective: Endothelial dysfunction, associated with reduced nitric oxide bioavailability and oxidative stress, is a common feature of vascular-related diseases. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a protein deacetylase that has been shown to target endothelial nitric oxide synthase in large arteries and is protective during oxidative stress. However, within resistance-sized vessels, the expression and functional effects of SIRT1 remain unknown.
Methods: Immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry were used to determine SIRT1 expression and localization in cultured brain endothelial cells and intact rat middle cerebral artery. The influence of SIRT1 on vascular function was then studied in intact middle cerebral arteries using pressure myography.
Results: We report for the first time that SIRT1 is expressed in the resistance-sized vessels in the brain and is present in both the endothelium and smooth muscle. Pharmacological inhibition of SIRT1 demonstrated reduced endothelium-dependent dilation mediated by nitric oxide. However, endothelium-independent dilations were comparable in the presence and absence of SIRT1 block.
Conclusions: Our results support a role for SIRT1 in endothelium-dependent relaxation in the cerebral vasculature and reveal a potential for SIRT1 as a therapeutic target in vascular-related diseases by restoring endothelial function.

Respond to Review of Buddha Lounge
by Clafoutis
Review: I ate here with my parents and brother, and we all had a great time. The portions were generous enough that when we returned the following evening, we ordered one starter platter of veg tempura and then shared two main dishes between us (veg green curry and a pad Thai noodle dish) the food was tasty, the restaurant had a good atmosphere although on the quiet side, and there were enough veggie and vegan options for everyone to have what they wanted. Very useful and centrally located in Gdansk.

Hi: 9° Lo:8°
RUBERY Youth Centre, which was due to close on December 31, leaving its teenage users with nowhere to go, has been given a stay of execution, The Standard can reveal.
Worcestershire County Council has now decided to keep the much-loved venue open until March, marking a small victory for the young people who have campaigned hard for more than two years to save their 'second home' on New Road.
Although they are still set to lose the centre, the delay has given them a lifeline so they can forge ahead with plans to form their own trust and relocate to a new building in the village.
Jamie Davies, 19, who is spearheading the campaign to maintain Rubery's youth services, welcomed the decision.
"Its great news - next Monday would have been our last day there, and there really wasn't enough time to do everything.
"It takes the pressure off a little." he said.
The county councillor responsible for the area, Peter McDonald, has backed the youngsters' fight and labelled the decision as a 'fantastic achievement'.
"To have a reprieve is wonderful news for the young people and residents.
"It gives them more time to put together a bid to ensure we continue to have youth provision in Rubery."
In October, Worcestershire County Council announced it would shut the centre on December 31, claiming it was unfit for purpose and would cost £374,000 to bring it up to standard.
And the authority, which is aiming to save £2million on youth services throughout the county, initially refused pleas from the campaigners to keep the centre open until June to allow them time to form their own trust.
Richard Keble, the county council's head of joint commissioning, said the decision was made after a company applying to take over youth services in the area pulled out.
He said: "In order to ensure no gap in continuation of positive activities for young people, it has been decided to extend provision of youth services at Rubery Youth Centre for a further three months to the end of March 2013.
"This will allow time to explore other options.
"The county council is committed to the continuation of positive activities for young people across the county, investing over £1million annually in commissioning of positive activities."

Publishers Weekly
Murder upsets a Wisconsin writing conference in the engaging fourth entry in Cook's cozy series featuring do-it-all newswoman Monona "Mo" Quinn (Murder at Midnight, etc.). When Mo's husband, Doug, stumbles on the body of conference star attraction Fletcher Downs, an author whose personality offends fans as quickly as his books win them, there are plenty of suspects, starting with the students in the mystery writing class Downs was teaching. Mo once again puts her curiosity and news-seeking skills to good use, despite admonitions from Doug and Detective Sergeant Lafferty to let the law handle the investigation. Readers who like their mysteries relatively bloodless and leavened with a pinch of romance, humor and regional color should find this a perfect fit. (June)

If you feel that the transaction log is too big see the section below on steps to maintaining it.
2. Determine if the size is due to the data for the database.
Run the following SQL command against the IM Manager database. You can use any SQL tool to perform this command.
If you feel that the data portion of the database is too large see the section below on steps to maintaining it.
Managing Size of SQL Transaction Logs
The IM Manager application has no requirements with respect as to the type of transaction log used or the way it is managed. Management of the transaction logs depends on your organizational needs. The transaction log is critical to maintaining integrity of the database. You should work with your SQL DBA to determine the best method to manage the transaction log.

(Updates with comment by analyst in sixth paragraph.)
Sept. 13 (Bloomberg) -- Kenya's Cabinet proposed the first amendment to the East African nation's one-year-old constitution to postpone national elections by four months to allow time to prepare for the vote.
Article 101 of the current constitution, signed into law in August 2010, says elections should be held on the second Tuesday of August every fifth year. Under the proposal, a vote scheduled for next year would be held on Dec. 17 and not Aug. 14.
"Cabinet found the date to be appropriate in view of the government budgetary cycle and the time required for preparations for the next elections," it said in a statement e- mailed by the Presidential Press Service in Nairobi, the capital, today.
Ethnic clashes erupted after Kenya's last election in December 2007 when the result was disputed by supporters of incumbent President Mwai Kibaki, and his main rival Raila Odinga, the current prime minister. The new constitution was promised in a power-sharing accord reached in February 2008 that ended two months of violence in which an estimated 1,500 people died and another 300,000 were forced to flee their homes.
Former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan, who helped broker the agreement, said last month Kenya must enact "key" political reforms, including appointing new commissioners to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, before the next elections are held.
The proposed amendment will probably be passed by lawmakers because this type of change to the constitution requires only a two-thirds majority vote in parliament, not a referendum as other articles require, Paul Muite, a former member of parliament and lawyer, said by phone from Nairobi today.
Kenya, East Africa's biggest economy, is the world's biggest exporter of black tea.

Precursor to 'Identity Crisis'
This trade paperback collects the issues of Brad Meltzer's run on Green Arrow that laid the conceptual groundwork for his excellent 'Identity Crisis' miniseries. It is not heavy on slam-bang action, but the dialogue is very well written and the characters are given unexpected depth--a nice surprise and all too uncommon in superhero comics. If you are curious about a reflective peek inside the mind, motivations, and personal life of a superhero, 'Archer's Quest' will be a treat.
