Live Commentary
Victor Moses breaks down the left and fires a shot just over - a pass to Scotland may have been the better option there.
Five minutes to be added on at a nervy DW Stadium.
Rodallega gets a standing ovation ashe is replaced by Jason Scotland.
Babel gives the ball away to Rodallega who blasts a shot wildly over the bar. I think he got a bit over-excited there!
Ryan Babel replaces Dirk Kuyt.
Mohamed Diame comes off for Hendry Thomas
Now Gerrard sees yellow, he may have got the ball but he went in with two feet from behind on McCarthy.
Torres is booked for a crude, late challenge on Emmerson Boyce, the Spaniard's frustration is growing.
Chance for Liverpool! Emiliano Insua's cross is headed down by Kuyt to Torres whose acrobatic volley goes just wide. Torres holds his head in his hands, he knows that was a chance.
Chance for Wigan! N'Zogbia is played through again, he beats Reina to the ball but it flashes across the area and Moses is unable to tap home at the far post.
Alberto Aquilani replaces Yossi Benayoun.
The hard working Moreno makes way for another new signing Victor Moses.
Wigan break rapidly and Rodallega feeds Moreno, who cuts inside and fires in a shot that Reina easily collects.
Nearly the freakiest goal of the season! Moreno dashes past Reina but Carragher is covering and looks to clear, but instead he thumps the ball off Moreno and it loops goalwards before Kyrgiakos heads over.
Torres looks to play in Kuyt but he overhits it slightly and Chris Kirkland collects.
What did I say?! Lucas jogs off and Glenn Johnson comes on to make his long awaited comeback from injury.
Glenn Johnson is warming up on the touchline for Liverpool, if things don't improve I expect him to be introduced sooner rather than later.
Maxi once again breaks free down the right and tees up Torres, who blasts over from just inside the area, he should have done better there.
Wigan go on the attack straight away and Mascherano has to be at his best to block Rodallega's shot.
We're underway again at the DW Stadium.
There's the whistle and it is a deserved half-time lead for Wigan, who have steadily improved throughout the half.
Three minutes to be added on
Insua, who has already been booked, brings down McCarthy in a dangerous area but recieves only a warning from the referee.
Maxi crosses form the right and finds Torres, but bhe scuffs his shot wide.
It's no more than Wigan deserves after dominating the past half hour, Rafa has some thinking to do.
WIGAN 1-0 LIVERPOOL Kuyt gives the ball away to Emmerson Boyce on the right and his cross is met by RODALLEGA five yards out who finishes past Reina.
Another booking for Liverpool, this time Sotirios Kyrgiakos sees yellow for a late tackle on Paul Scharner. A sign of Liverpool's frustration perhaps?
Lucas Leiva is booked for a late tackle on Titus Bramble, sloppy challenge from the Brazilian.
Just as I say that...another chance for Liverpool,Yossi Benayoun dinks in from the right and finds Gerrard with a low cross, but the Liverpool skipper can't get his shot on goal.
The game has settled down a bit now, though Wigan should be pleased with their performance so far.
Emiliano Insua is booked for challenge from behind on N'Zogbia.
Lucas Leiva fouls Hugo Rodallega 25 yards from goal, Rodallega steps up to take the free-kick but puts it well over.
More great skill from N'Zogbia down the right as he beats Emiliano Insua, his low cross however can't find a Wigan player and it's scrambled clear.
Charles N'Zogbia turns in the area and fires in a cross shot that narrowly avoids the outstretched boot of Marcelo Moreno.
Wigan battle their way back into things and force a corner off Sotirios Kyrgiakos, but it is cleared by the Liverpool defence.
Chance for Liverpool! Gerrard's corner is cleared only as far as Fernando Torres, who volleys onto the post from the angle, perhaps should have done better there.
Javier Mascherano's cross from the right isn't properly cleared and Steven Gerrard blasts over from 25 yards. Decent start from Liverpool.

Match Preview
Liverpool travel to the DW Stadium on Monday hoping to continue their fantastic record against Wigan Athletic.
The Reds have won nine of their previous 11 meetings with the Latics in all competitions, drawing the other two.
Earlier this season, goals from David N'Gog and Fernando Torres were enough for Liverpool to seal a 2-1 win against the Latics at Anfield, despite a late consolation from Charles N'Zogbia.
Two players who have shown particularly good form against Wigan recently are Yossi Benayoun and Dirk Kuyt.
The Dutchman has scored five goals in his last five Premier League starts against Wigan, while the Israeli midfielder has scored both of Liverpool's goals in their last two trips to the DW Stadium.
The Reds will have to improve their recent away form if they are to defeat Roberto Martinez's team though, as they have failed to score in five of their last seven Premier League away games, including the last three in a row.
They come up against a side in poor form themselves however, as the Latics have not scored in any of their last three league games.
Wigan defender Titus Bramble is convinced that, following their recent poor form, a win in this match could push his struggling side on to confirming their top-flight survival for another season.
"The lack of consistency is still there and it's so frustrating," said Bramble.
"It's a real dogfight at the bottom of the league and we need to compete for 90 minutes and not 45. If we can do that, there won't be a problem.
"The Liverpool game is a massive game for us, and we have to pick ourselves up and make sure we're ready for it."
Liverpool have suffered with injuries to both Martin Skrtel and Fabio Aurelio recently, but Glen Johnson is nearing a return.
Match Report
Hugo Rodallega bagged the only goal of the game to boost Wigan Athletic's survival hopes and deal a hammer blow to Liverpool's Champions League ambitions.
The visitors threatened early on at the DW Stadium as Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres both wasted chances, before Rodallega fired past Pepe Reina ten minutes before the break.
Liverpool's Sotirios Kyrgiakos scrambled Marcelo Moreno's goal-bound block off the line in the second half before Torres spurned a glorious chance to level as Wigan hung on for their first victory over the Reds.
The hosts began the game just a point clear of the drop zone after going seven games without a win, while the Reds had revived their hopes of finishing in the top four after taking ten points from their past five games.
Gerrard fired an early warning shot across the Wigan bows when he smashed a rebound from Javier Mascherano's strike over the bar.
Torres should have put Liverpool ahead in the eighth minute when he struck the post after collecting Maxi Rodriguez's header inside the penalty box.
But after weathering the storm the Latics began to assert themselves and Charles N'Zogbia lashed a teasing ball across the box, before Rodallega fired a free-kick over and Emiliano Insua was booked for hauling down Frenchman N'Zogbia.
In the 35th minute the home side made the most of their dominant position when Rodallega slipped his eighth goal of the season past Reina.
The Colombian striker continued to threaten the visiting goal after the break and Reina was called on twice in quick succession to deny him.
And it was Wigan who almost doubled their advantage on the hour mark when Moreno blocked Jamie Carragher's header and - with Reina stranded - Kyrgiakos was forced to head off the line.
Reina smothered N'Zogbia's 73rd minute strike before Dirk Kuyt headed the ball down to Torres eight yards out, but he blazed his volley wide.

very nice!
Great belair album!
Thanks so much, @bravopires and @grazie!
Excellent ! This is exactly the kind of exposure I'm looking for with MS 100/1000. Do you remember at what ISO did you shoot ?
Hey @qlamerand! Thanks for checking out my photos.
I shot this entire roll at 100. I find that the color shifts on this film really depend on the quality of light (eg flash, sunset, fluorescent, etc).

Tensions Continue Over Egypt's Constitution Fight
Weekend Edition Saturday host Scott Simon speaks with Egyptian journalist Sara Khorshid about the latest protests and negotiations over the constitution in Cairo.
Copyright © 2012 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
This is WEEKEND EDITION from NPR News. I'm Scott Simon.
Tens of thousands of people were again protesting at the gates of the Presidential Palace in Cairo overnight. And yesterday, protesters broke through the barbed-wire barricades to climb on tanks that were stationed to keep them at bay.
Protesters are demanding that President Mohammed Morsi reverse a decree that awarded himself sweeping powers and that he cancel a referendum scheduled for next week on a proposed constitution. Today, opposition members were invited to the palace to discuss the tense situation with President Morsi and members of his party, the Muslim Brotherhood.
Earlier, we spoke with Ashraf Khalil in Cairo. He's a contributor to Time magazine and the author of "Liberation Square."
ASHRAF KHALIL: To a large extent, those who are protesting against President Morsi oppose the entire way that this thing has been handled, many of whom including senior leaders of the opposition like Mohamed ElBaradei say the country went wrong 18 months ago right after the revolution when the Brotherhood helped pass a national referendum that ended up in this situation where we don't have a constitution. It's in dispute.
We have elected bodies defending their own interests, but there's a lot of people who object to the entire way this thing has been handled and object to what's in the constitution. And object to this feeling that is being forced down people's throats and then deliberately not giving time for a reasoned debate and consensus.
SIMON: And how organized is the opposition at this point?
KHALIL: By their standards, quite well organized. You know, there have been some ego contact, which is naturally something like this. But really Morsi's constitutional decree has forced a level of unity among the opposition that we have not seen, I guess, ever.
SIMON: Ashraf Khalil, who is contributor to Time magazine and author of "Liberation Square" joining us from Cairo. Thanks for being with us.
KHALIL: No problem, my pleasure.

Football = Lamest game ever....... well, right next to baseball and basketball.
Why anyone would waste a perfectly good Sunday afternoon sitting in front of their TV is beyond me. But, if you're trying to get fat--that's the best way to do it!
However, if you require vicarious means to attain some sort of perceived status or to feel good about yourself, by all means carry on....
People can like football (or not) and it doesn't say anything about their worth as a person. People can "sit by a campfire and be soulful" (or not) and it doesn't say anything about their worth as a person, either. Personally, I like football, but I agree that watching it every Sunday is a bit much and I've skipped several weeks this year for that reason. I also like to sit by campfires and be soulful. Dichotomies exist. It's OK. It might even be healthy...
First, I knew I would get a bite on that bait in short order, lol.
Second, nice attempt at being psychic though. However, I grew up SURFING, sailing, free diving and swimming. I was a varsity swimmer in HS. Guess what--I still do all of the above. Do you still play football acetoneSniffer or just sit on your couch with a bag of chips watching the game remembering the "good ole days"?
Anyway Sniffer, you just illustrated the ridiculous self-indignation as a result of weighing too much into your vicarious life I was attempting to illustrate.
kielsun, good on ya for taking the high ground--you're better at it than I
this sounds like a statement from someone in the glee club or high school band.
Football certainly is not the lamest game ever. Watching football and geting fat... that's kinda lame... But lets face it, some of the best athletes to walk the planet are football players. Also, the game of football is more complex then people care to give it credit for. Its the total embodiment of what has made man what he is today. its aggression, its strength, its strategy and everything else that makes man what he is today... for better or worse.
I played football in high school and a short stint in college... and Im not fat and I catch at least most games during the season. after the season is over... I dont watch much of any other sports or tv for that matter... except family guy. lol.
So what you are saying is that its not possible to surf and be a sports fan? This rant of yours says more about you being a bitter geek than we being able to surf in the morning and than watching some football in the afternoon...oh I'm sorry your too busy free diving...haha
Come get some! Succas!!
Giants are like surfers.
Packers are like boogie boarders.

What Should Foreigners Know About Buying Properties In Thailand?
If you plan on buying a property in the Land of Smiles, you should know that there are some restrictions that foreigners have to comply with.

This articles aims to be a guide that offers some information that can guide you discover the depths of this problem.
Buying a property is a difficult job, especially if your intention is to find your dream house in a foreign country. Apart from finding the perfect house, one that offers the necessary space, is situated in the right place and gives you the feeling of belonging there, you must know the laws related to this subject and you must find a specialist who is able to offer valuable advice.
- There are some restrictions when it comes to allowing foreigners to own a property
Before 1997, it was impossible for foreigners to legally buy a property in Thailand. However, things have changed and those who are interested in buying a house can take advantage of the new laws. The process is still different from that of other countries and some restrictions still exist, but it is much easier now to make it happen. If a foreigner wants to buy a condo, he should choose a building where at least 51% of the space is owned by people who live in Thailand, as otherwise the foreigner will only be able to buy the leasehold. Those who opt for a condo usually want to move there, but others are also interested in making an investment.
- Can leasehold be considered a viable solution?
Leaseholds are common and secure options which are more and more chosen by foreigners. The advantage is that these forms are hassle free and are renewable. People opt for leaseholds especially in case of a modern residential development. The initial leasehold will be in effect for 30 years and then it can be renewed.
- More about buying properties in Thailand
At present, Thailand is an attractive location for foreigners, who buy properties as a form of investment or because they want to live in this beautiful country. After consulting a professional, who is able to offer legal advice and guideless, you can start looking for the right property. With a complex database, which consists of a large array of properties, findthaiproperty website can help you find the right property easier and faster. With exquisite properties in Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket and other cities, the website is all you need in order to find the one that suits your taste. The search can be customized according to the filters that you consider important, such as: price, number of bedroom, city etc. The offer is generous, so check it out at Find Thai Property.
- What should you consider when buying a property?
First of all, you must realistically decide on a budget. You must know what type of property you can afford, as it saves a lot of time when actually starting the search. The location of your new house is utterly important too. You should make sure that you are close to shops, restaurant, drugstores and supermarkets and that you can get to the places you need to go fast. All these are extremely important, as even though the location looks wonderful and you enjoyed every single vacation there, living in a place means more than that. Living in a place must offer comfort and your life must have a normal course, undisturbed by problems that should have been avoided.

The RESET study demonstrated that continued treatment with 20mg of tasimelteon was required to maintain entrainment of melatonin and cortisol circadian rhythms in individuals with Non-24. Patients treated with tasimelteon maintained their clinical benefits while patients who received placebo showed significant deterioration in measures of nighttime sleep, daytime naps and timing of sleep. Furthermore, discontinuation of tasimelteon resulted in a rapid relapse to misaligned circadian rhythms, reinforcing the importance of chronic therapy.
"These results clearly demonstrate that tasimelteon can entrain the circadian clock and is able to align melatonin and cortisol rhythms to the 24-hour social day," said Steven W. Lockley, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Medicine, Division of Sleep Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School.
About Non-24-Hour Disorder
Non-24 is a serious, rare, and chronic circadian rhythm disorder characterized by the inability to entrain (synchronize) the master body clock with the 24-hour day-night cycle. Non-24 affects the majority of totally blind individuals, or between 65,000 and 95,000 people in the U.S. Non-24 occurs almost entirely in individuals who lack the light sensitivity necessary to entrain the master bod

People often ask me, "How do you do it all?" To which I respond, "What makes you think I do it all? I don't. I can't remember the last time I cleaned, for goodness sake."
Here's how to clear your calendar! Draw a line down the center of a piece of paper. On one side of the paper write 'to do' list, and then on the other side of the page write 'not to do.' Now, write out all you have to do on the to do side of the page. We really do have ridiculously long 'to do' lists, don't we?
Here comes the fun part! Take a good look at your 'to do' list and take anything on it that someone else could do for you and move it to your 'not to do' list. For instance, take the laundry. Either find someone else in the house who is capable of tossing it into the washer and drier to do the laundry or send it out. Is food shopping taking up too much of your precious time? Order on-line or call-in a standing delivery to your neighborhood grocery store. Cleaning? Forgetaboutit. I'm lucky. My husband has a much lower tolerance to mess than I do. I can count on him to clean up!

Peter Mt. Shasta is the best-selling author of books on his experiences with the Ascended Masters, and the teachings they have given him on how to contact the I AM Presence within, and bring it in daily life. Previously he traveled in India, spending time with Ram Dass, Maharajji, Sathya Sai Baba, Anandamayi Ma and other saints. He also studied with the Tibetan Lamas, Trungpa Rinpoche (founder of Shambhala.org) and Chagdud Rinpoche. On his return to the West, Saint Germain materialized before him in a forest near San Francisco, and told him to go to Mount Shasta for further training. There he was brought into contact with Pearl Dorris, a former assistant to Godfre Ray King (author of Unveiled Mysteries, The Magic Presence, and the "I AM" Discourses), and head of the San Francisco "I AM" Sanctuary. Through Pearl, he was given advanced training in the I AM teachings and brought into further contact with other Masters..... Read more.

Gary Kendall
Author and Healer with Dolphin Star Temple
Like many other seekers, my journey began with indigenous teachers, in my case, Peruvian shaman/priests who taught me deep honoring of the earth, ceremonial practices, and most importantly heartfulness; and it was in Peru that don Victor Estrada introduced me to my wife Ulla. Then together our paths led to Mt. Shasta and Amorah Quan Yin. On the day we first met her, Amorah invited us to join a session doing work on the earth. It certainly made an impression on us, because since that day Ulla and I have journeyed to the far reaches of the world doing sacred earthwork with Swedish groups fully trained in Amorah's healing techniques, now directed toward working with the earth.......

With every century, people see things differently. A 21st Century worldview is emerging — of oneness, interdependence and the primacy of consciousness — but calcified institution stay stuck in the limitations of 20th Century thinking. Our job is to be the presence of the Alternative wherever we are, always presenting another way to see the world whenever love is not put first.
— Marianne Williamson
If we make consistent effort, based on proper education, we can change the world. We are selfish, that's natural, but we need to be wisely selfish, not foolishly selfish. We have to concern ourselves more with others' well-being, that's the way to be wisely selfish. We have the ability to take the long-term benefit into account. I think it is possible to make real change in this century.
— HH Dalai Lama

This year's event is also a fundraiser for our local Meals on Wheels Auxiliary. Part of the proceeds from Wesak 2014 will be donated to the program.
Meals on Wheels needs a wheelchair accessible van capable of carrying at least 4 wheelchairs. The cost on these is quite substantial — upwards of $50,000. Grants may cover part of the expense but they require matching funds from the program. We are counting on Wesak to provide a descent part of the those funds.

Human beings operate in so many realms, above and beyond the miraculous but relatively mundane physical, mental, emotional, and energetic. But what is it that connects us, what are the virtues and substance of our true natures, as individual "consciousnesses" and as the infinite, magical, mystery of which we are all part? And as our world changes, as time seems to speed up, as our minds and bodies and technologies evolve, what remains true and essential? Has this changed? Surely our relationship to it has, as we grow in awareness. With so much changing so fast, how do we stay attuned and aligned to live our part consciously, both personally and universally?
Mount Shasta's Wesak festival is a "spiritual family reunion" begun, in what some consider one of the holiest places on this earth, by the late Dr. Joshua Stone and now under the direction of Dawn Fazende (editor of Mount Shasta Magazine).
Wesak is named for the legendary convergence of Buddha, Christ and other Masters in the hallowed Wesak Valley in the Himalayas during the Buddha full moon occurring in May each year. The convergence is celebrated variously in cultures throughout the world, including annual pilgrimages to the original site. The Mount Shasta Wesak Festival, however, is an event whose scope extends far beyond the Buddhist holiday with whom many associate the term Wesak.
As one of the seven sacred mountains in the world, Mount Shasta is uniquely suited for this annual North American Pilgrimage. The very atmosphere here is charged with powerful energetic currents and a profoundly restorative silence. The mountain is considered alternately as the Heart Chakra or the Head Chakra of the planet. The I AM Activity, a religion based on instructions dictated by St. Germain in the 1930s on Mt. Shasta, states that this is the place where Christ energy enters the planetary grid.
Local Native Americans believe Mt. Shasta is where God lives and Creation began. Many believe there is a city under the mountain and that Mt. Shasta is a portal between dimensions. It is said that the lenticular clouds so frequently seen here are generated when a vehicle moves between dimensions. Tibetan Buddhists, who are building a monastery here, have 28 specific criteria a mountain must meet to be called sacred. Mt. Shasta is the only one in the USA that meets all 28. People have been drawn to be present with Mt. Shasta's pristine and beautiful natural environment for years. They come to renew their souls and spirits and, at Wesak, to hear the best teachers available anywhere who assist with their personal development.
Wesak is an Eastern Tradition
Years ago our local Buddhist Abbey contacted us about the fact that we were using the wrong date to celebrate Wesak. They reminded me that Buddha was born a Hindu, under the Vedic (or Sidereal or Eastern) Astrological system. I checked online and virtually all the Buddhist countries celebrated Wesak at a different time than we were.
So I contacted a Vedic astrologer who cast the Wesak dates back to the time of Christ and found they Wesak was ALWAYS on the full moon of MAY which, in the Vedic system is Taurus. It seemed westerners had again taken an eastern tradition and made it conform to our specifics by using the Tropical (Western) Astrological system.
I looked into this very carefully and came to the conclusion that Alice Bailey made a typical western centric mistake — normal for her time and culture — and assumed Wesak was a western creation, under a western zodiac, the one with which she was familiar. She was told to celebrate on the Taurus Moon (and we all know it's really the Scorpio moon, Taurus sun.) I believe she went with what she knew — the western sun sign of Taurus running from April 21 to May 21.
Many of the descriptions given by various western spiritualists — including I am told Bailey herself — say that the festivals of the three moons are EASTERN in origin. The Buddha full moon is a Vedic tradition — an eastern tradition. (Remember DK is the Tibetan.) The down pouring of the Wesak blessing has always been tied in with Buddha's birth/death/enlightenment, according to Dr. Stone. Wesak is the date of this birth, death and enlightenment. This is celebrated by Buddhist countries as the first full moon in May. The Vedic system shows Taurus at varying times — because it actually calculated when the constellations are directly overhead — but roughly mid May to mid June.
Sun in Taurus, full moon in sun sign Taurus, occurs twice in a year — once in the Tropical and once in the Vedic systems. We decided to used the Vedic system as it seems to be more in keeping with Buddha's heritage and traditions.
Where two or more are gathered the Ascended ones will attend, no matter what the dates may be. It is only we on this plane who are constricted by such measurements. We are fully in touch with Wesak's spiritual energies. Our participants fully receive the outpouring being offered by the Ascended Masters. While doing that they also receive information to allow them to incorporate that energy into their lives.

Let's face it: It is extremely difficult to build a multimillion-dollar company from scratch, negotiate the treacherous peaks and valleys of a successful career, or achieve financial security in an economy marked by uncertainty and rapid change. However, the struggle is far less daunting, and far more rewarding, when you are teamed up with a spouse who shares your values and vision. Marriage, at its best, is the ultimate partnership, the foundation that supports the health and wealth-building capacity of families and, indeed, entire communities—today and for generations to come.
If marriage is the ultimate partnership, I have enjoyed the energy, intelligence, and loving devotion of the ultimate partner, Barbara, my wife of 47 years. In addition to excelling as a wife, mother, and grandmother, she has been a true business partner every step of the way, from the conception of a magazine that would serve as a resource and cheerleader for business-minded black people nearly 40 years ago to the evolution of that idea into the No. 1 multimedia source for African Americans who want to build lasting wealth today. Barbara is my most trusted and wisest adviser, critic, cheerleader, and confidante. Over the years, she has run nearly every department in the company and helped to develop many of its top executives, including our three sons. Today she continues to serve as a board member of Earl G. Graves Ltd. and is the senior member of the brain trust behind the planning of the Black Enterprise Women of Power Summit, the premier professional development conference for businesswomen of color. Barbara has been and continues to be our company's most valuable asset—and my secret weapon. I love her more today than I've ever loved her.
Strong marriages, stable families, and an enduring faith in God go hand-in-hand with success in everything we do. People who lack stability in their personal lives generally find it difficult to achieve sustained excellence and satisfaction in their business and professional lives. Those seeking role models to follow in their quest for success would do well to study not only the business histories and career paths of their examples but also how they managed their personal affairs—and perhaps more importantly, what qualities made their spouses such effective life partners. This is why I devoted a significant portion of my autobiographical best-seller, How To Succeed in Business Without Being White: Straight Talk on Making It in America, to the critical role my marriage and family played in my ability to grow our company.
Don't just take my example. Consider business titan and Johnson Publishing Co. Founder John H. Johnson or the legendary Reginald F. Lewis. Both their wives, Eunice and Loida, respectively, played indispensible roles in their late husbands' career and business successes. And both have been critical to ensuring that their husbands' business legacies and interests are sustained for generations to come, through their children (including Johnson's successor as CEO, daughter Linda Johnson-Rice), as well as institutions such as The Reginald F. Lewis Museum in Baltimore.

The Challenge Format
Entries from individuals and clubs will be randomly mixed in competition. The judging panel will score each image out of a maximum of 27 points, as in previous years.
Two sets of CAPA medals will be awarded for single images: 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize for images submitted by clubs, and 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize for images submitted by individuals. The top-scoring image will receive the NSPS Best in Show medal. If there is a point tie between the top individual and club images, the judges will rule which one is Best In Show.
CAPA-member photo clubs will vie for the coveted North Shore Photographic Challenge trophy. Each club will submit 6 images.

Dec 18, 2013 2:57 AM by Connie Tran, KSBY News
A motel with a troubled history has shut down in Santa Maria. Some long term tenants of the Budget Inn now have no where to go. The city of Santa Maria said on Tuesday that it did not know why the owner chose to shut down the motel that is on Broadway and Bunny Avenue. No one from the motel could be reached on Tuesday. The city said it did not ask or enforce the motel to close, however city code enforcement had been looking into issues with the exterior part of the building. "They have no place to go, they have no money, they can't get any help," said Barbara Oliveira, a resident of Santa Maria who lives across the street from the Budget Inn. Oliveira said she was upset for the long-time tenants who call the Budget Inn home. The Budget Inn operates as a motel, but also rents out rooms by the week for permanent housing. Oliveira said, "Some of the residents here, they are senior citizens, they are disabled, there are several of them that have to use electric wheelchairs, there's at least one in here that is on 24 hour oxygen." Mark van de Kamp, a spokesperson for the city of Santa Maria, said that the Code Compliance department had contacted the Budget Inn earlier this year about violations involving the building's exterior. He said, "They (Code Enforcement) contacted the owner of the property to arrange a consensual inspection of the premises." But, before a meeting could be arranged, the owner decided to close, said van de Kamp. "We did not infer in anyway or ask that the property be closed at all. That was the property owner's decision," said van de Kamp. He also added, "We assume, hopefully correctly, that the property will be closed for a short time while repairs are effectuated. So far a permit has not been pulled for repairs, but that could change as soon as tomorrow." The Budget Inn has had its string of incidents over the years. In 2011, some renters complained of deplorable living conditions, and at that time, Code Compliance officers told KSBY they had investigated the Budget Inn 14 times for violations since 1993. Also in 2011, a man was stabbed at the motel, and in June of this year, another man was stabbed there. Just a few months ago in October, Santa Maria Police said there was a gang-related shooting where a man was shot in the foot. The city said it's directed tenants to stay at the Good Samaritan Shelter or with friends.

POSTED: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 - 6:53pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 - 10:24am
tyler — The presidential campaign chugs along with republicans now stepping all over themselves to try and top Mitt Romney.
Some of the mist misguided comments are coming from newt Gingrich and Texas Governor Rick Perry.
Last week, I thought I was watching MSNBC or another liberal outlet when I heard from two so-called bastions of conservatism tearing down the Republican front runner with left-wing attacks.
Now Gingrich's super PAC is going after Mitt Romney as an evil corporate raider.
They say the former head of the Bain corporation was snapping up struggling companies and eating them alive for cash and throwing them along the roadside.
By the way, all the fact-checkers have found a lot of holes in this argument.
Then you have Rick Perry, I guess having a flashback from his more liberal days when he campaigned for Al Gore. He was calling Romney a vulture capitalist, accusing Mitt of the same things that the liberals are now talking about.
As I have mentioned before it's not uncommon and perfectly legal for companies like hedge fund groups
infusing money to keep a company alive and running it the way they want.
The left is laughing hard at what's going on right now, but they need not look any farther than a mirror to see
their own hypocrisy.
It's called the General Motors bailout.
A struggling company which has made to many bad investments and was going down the tubes is suddenly
rescued by a knight with a garbage can load of cash to save it.
That's called Barak Obama and the United States government.
That's the same thing they are trying to accuse Romney of.
Funny how it's called one thing for one side and another for a differing side.
Still laughing?
That's my point of view, what's yours?
You can email me at email@example.com [2].

Rare BD-8 Variety, First Obverse Use
On the reverse, the wreath shows three berries, one on the outside left, placed high, and two on the outside right. There is no berry on the inside left. (Another reverse has three berries, but the outside left berry is low.)
Numismatists today can tell by the early state of the obverse that this was the first use. Nonetheless, the obverse die of this pairing was also used to make not only the BD-9 and BD-10 marriages, but also trotted out again in 1798 with a Large Eagle reverse die to make the unique 1795 Large Eagle coin, BD-13. John Dannreuther writes that "This is [the] most used obverse die of 1795 (number of varieties), as one fourth had this die. Since it was also used for the Large Eagle variety BD-13, this obverse lasted much longer than the usual early dies. As dies were so precious to the early Mint, this certainly must have been a pleasant change."
This Choice AU example is still somewhat lustrous throughout the antique-gold surfaces, which show a few small sprinkled abrasions from light circulation, but the only mentionable mark on the obverse is a small curving one in the right field, before Liberty's nose and mouth. A small group of marks in the lower reverse field, under the eagle's right (facing) wing, is also undistracting. There are no visible planchet adjustment marks on either side.

Or simply go to the aggregated tag results from:
Libya calls for regional security alliance
The US donated 10 tons of personnel protective gear "to support Tunisia's fight against terrorism and ... to help Tunisia succeed in its transition to democracy," and promised to "make available to the Tunisian Air Force 12 UH-60M Blackhawk helicopters to aid in the fight against terrorism." A firefight broke out in Fernana on Aug. 9 between special forces and an armed terrorist group. Security forces seized 13 rifles hidden in a car crossing over from Libya on Aug. 12. A rights group criticized the government's decision to suspend the activities of over 150 organizations alleged to have terrorist connections. Reservists have been called up to secure the fall elections from terrorist attacks.
The Interior Ministry announced the arrest of 21 people belonging to five armed groups linked to Ansar al Sharia, after raids in Tunis, Soukra, Dar Fadhal, Raoued, and Kram. The suspects were allegedly planning attacks, including "bombing of civil security and military targets," on politicians, security officials, journalists, and "sensitive sites" in Tunis. Security forces arrested a woman suspected of providing support to terrorists in the forests of Kef; they also arrested a cyberjihadist who was assisting terrorists in Jebel Chaambi.
Tunisia Fears Attacks by Citizens Flocking to Jihad
Security forces arrested three terrorists last night in Régueb in Sidi Bouzid; they are allegedly associates of Afif Lamouri, an Ansar al Sharia leader in Sidi Bouzid who was arrested on July 31. A Tunis court today issued a warrant for the arrest of Lamouri, a communications official for the terror group. Security forces raided the Kasserine home of Mourad Gharsalli, said to be a leader of the Islamist forces in Jebel Chaambi, but he was not there. Operations are continuing in Jebel Sammema. Nine Algerian terrorists are said to have entered north Jendouba. The governor of Monastir suspended eight organizations for Salafist links, and said one was connected to recruiting fighters for Syria. A committal order was issued against Seifeddine Rais, an Ansar al Sharia spokesman who has pledged allegiance to the Islamic State.
Up to 10,000 Egyptians stranded at Libya-Tunisia border
Police took custody of 17 radical Islamists in Sousse who had violently interfered with preaching at a mosque. Tunisian and Egyptian authorities tried to speed up the evacuation of 6,000 Egyptians fleeing Libya into Tunisia for eventual return to Egypt. Tunisian authorities are seeking ways to prevent terrorists from entering the country from Libya. A local security official was wounded in an incident at the border yesterday. Prime Minister Jomaa said Tunisia will not host refugee camps for Libyans. Ansar al Sharia Tunisia has claimed the July 17 attack in Jebel Chaambi that killed 15 Tunisian troops.
ISIS woos Ansar al Sharia in Libya
Security forces on patrol in Fouzaia in the governorate of Jendouba clashed with a terrorist group yesterday. Terrorists attacked security forces in Ain Debba in Jendouba. The Tunisian Red Crescent denied reports that a Tunisian doctor was killed in an Israeli raid in Gaza. Syphax Airlines, a private Tunisian carrier, denied "rumors" that it had lost aircraft in Libya.
Foreign Minister Hamdi threatened to close the Ras Jadir and Wazin-Dehiba border crossings, as at least 5,000 people per day have been entering Tunisia from Libya through Ras Jadir recently, and he ordered stepped up security at Ras Jadir. The Defense Ministry accepted the July 23 resignation of army chief General Mohamed Salah Hamdi, who resigned "for personal reasons" after a militant attack in Jebel Chaambi that killed 15 soldiers and wounded 20. A Salafist who provided material and logistical support to terrorist groups was arrested in El Kef on July 27. Five members of a "dormant" terrorist cell were arrested in Mahdia. Two soldiers were killed in a clash with terrorists in Kef on July 26.
Tunisia Can't Cope with Massive Libya Refugee Influx
Security forces arrested Mohamed Anis Chaieb, a wanted leader of the banned terrorist group Ansar al Sharia, in Mahdia yesterday. Warrants of committal were issued for six people in El Kef who had celebrated the recent killing of 15 soldiers in Jebel Chaambi. Eleven Tunisians who were kidnapped in Boukamech, Libya, returned to Tunisia.
Crime, terror converge at Tunisia frontier
Palestinians Find Show of Support Lacking From Arab Leaders Amid Offensive
Security forces arrested over 60 suspected militants in raids in Kasserine, Sidi Bouzid, and El Kef, including Makram Mouelhi, 34, head of an armed terrorist group in Garn Halfaya. In a crackdown on militant Islam, the government ordered the closure of all mosques not regulated by the government, as well as those mosques where celebrations were held following the killing of 15 soldiers in Jebel Chaambi on July 16. Sixteen people, including extremists, were arrested for celebrating the attack on the soldiers. Unknown assailants opened fire on a military equestrian club in Kasserine.
The Tunisian military announced that 14 soldiers were killed and 23 were wounded in attacks by two terrorist teams on military checkpoints on Mount Chaambi; one terrorist was killed. The death toll is reportedly the highest since the military's formation in 1956. The Okba Ben Nafaa Brigade has claimed the attack; Tunisian authorities have said the group is linked to both Ansar al Sharia and al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb. On July 15, over 12 Zintani fighters wounded from clashes with Islamist forces at Tripoli airport crossed over for medical treatment in Sfax city.
Security forces in Aouina and Sidi Bouzid uncovered a terrorist network that smuggles hunting guns from Libya into Tunisia. The Interior Ministry is seeking to arrest three suspected terrorists: Tunisian national Hichem Ben Mohamed Ben Abderrazzek Berrebeh, and Algerian citizens Khaled Hamadi Chaied and Mohamed Amine Mahkouka. Arrest warrants have been issued for six of some 20 jihadists said to have fought in Syria with the ISIS. On July 11, a returned jihadist told a court he had gone to Syria at the bidding of Bilel Chaouachi, a Salafist imam whom authorities recently questioned about his call for allegiance to the Islamic State's Abu Bakr al Baghdadi.
Police and Salafists clashed in Kef. Following the Hizb ut-Tahrir party's June conference on "Establishment of the Caliphate and Removal of Colonialism," Prime Minister Jomaa accused the group of calling for violence and failing to respect the values of the republic. Citizens had demanded action against Hizb ut-Tahrir after its leader branded a leading Tunisian intellectual as an infidel. Interior Minister Jeddou said in June that about 2,400 Tunisian youth have traveled to Syria to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham or the Al Nusrah Front, up from the roughly 1,800 Tunisians said to be in Syria in April. Jeddou also claimed that the government has prevented 8,800 Tunisians from traveling to Syria for jihad.
The government raised the terrorism alert level following the recent deaths of 10 soldiers in two landmine explosions in El Kef. The army launched an operation in the Mount Ouergha area of El Kef yesterday. Four Islamist extremists faced charges on July 5 in Bizerte for violating the law on mosques.

Re:PROOF! (284 comments)
This is PROOF that Microsoft KNOWS they are producing bad code. They put something out there, and then when they had to open source the code, they were all like "Well now everyone will see how bad our coding is, better take a week to fix it up before releasing it to the public!"
Having been involved with open source at Microsoft, I'd guess that the real reason for the delay was to "scrub" it to make sure that no intellectual property was inadvertently being given away.
Nice article (817 comments)
It's a good article, and well-worth reading. But it bears only a marginal resemblence to the teaser headline CmdrTaco has slapped on it...
Re:Some other interesting results... (582 comments)
When you search for words, you get hits with words. If you want to search for phrases, put the words in quotes. When I search for the phrase "Windows worse than OSX", I only get one hit on both Google and on Bing -- so it's no surprise that this single site isn't found in all of the hits for pages that contain each of the words "Windows" "worse" "than" "OSX"

Re:The bigger problem... (338 comments)
regarding Bill's comments on it being a bad idea for Google to have two OS's (Chrome and Android)... MS HAS MORE THAN ONE OS, DUMBSHIT! Is Gates so out of touch that he thinks that win mobiles run Vista?
While that was probably the right decision at the time it was made (Windows CE is over ten years old, after all), I think that most people here at MS would do it differently if creating a new mobile OS today.
Re:MSFT has no original ideas (493 comments)
I wouldn't be surprised if Steve Jobs actually believes that Apple invented GUIs, MP3 players and smart phones. In general, no big company has truly original ideas -- or if they do, it's in a research arm like PARC or MSR and the ideas are never properly monetized.
Re:Microsoft Hate (318 comments)
A real shell? Having to install cygwin is kinda a pain. No powershell does not count.
Why doesn't PowerShell count?
Re:Only Half the Story (578 comments)
It would be hard for the EU to make a case that Microsoft's proposed remedy doesn't address the complaint. After all, if they're no longer bundling the browser with the OS, it can't be considered "illegal tying of a different product to a monopoly." It shifts that part of the regulatory burden onto the OEMs, who aren't nearly the kind of deep-pockets attractive target for a fine that Microsoft is.
It's not hard to see why MS would prefer to ship "no browser" than a competitor's browser.
Re:HIJACKED! (310 comments)
Sounds like a feature to get you to stop using IE6 already, goddamn it!
Re:Don't plug in your scanner! (655 comments)
PostScript isn't some kind of open standard that anyone can implement. It's owned by Adobe. The whole reason that Microsoft invented "TrueType" was to avoid paying royalties to Adobe for their Type 1 font format.
Re:Think about it (486 comments)
C is not a safe language, and stupid programmers will always find ways to mess it up. There are safer languages where you can't hang yourself as easily, and if you don't understand C, you should use them.
The idea that smart people don't make mistakes is thoroughly ridiculous.
Because everyone is not just going to add a line of code to one of the base headers:
#define memcpy(dst, len, src) memcpy_s((dst),(len),(src),(len))
Smart people recognize that they make mistakes, so they create systems that help them catch and prevent their own mistakes. If you're foolish enough to believe that you can't make mistakes, then you should just turn off all the warnings on the compiler and not bother with lesser workarounds like redefining a single symbol.
Think about it (486 comments)
Some of these reactions are quite funny.
The goal of asking you to specify the length of the destination buffer is to force you to think about the data you're working with *while* you're writing the code and not afterwards in an unconnected security audit. Furthermore, it provides documentation to other people reading the code who may not have the same mental model of what's going on as you do. And as usual "other people" includes you, six months after you wrote the code.
Re:TomTom deverves the suit anyway (261 comments)
The most likely reason that Microsoft is suing TomTom is to force TomTom to cross-license these patents -- that's what most big companies use their patent portfolios for.
Yay for selective quoting! (201 comments)
"Software Tree's partners include Microsoft, IBM, Borland, and Sun"
Fixed that for you.
Re:Summary (225 comments)
Furthermore; the small, leaked part of the source code for Windows contains comments such as "Changing X seems to fuck up the goddamn C compiler" and "Removing this seems to break Office 98" which implies that not a lot of people at Microsoft still know what is realy going on in the subsystems.
Heh. I work at Microsoft and I think there's a lot of truth to that. But no programmer anywhere seems to like to document stuff -- so I'd guess that what's on MSDN is better than you can find for most other bodies of code.
Of course, the best documentation is the code itself and the unit tests for the code, which isn't generally an option for closed source software.
Re:New browsers won't appear for years (911 comments)
Microsoft is going to fight this decision tooth and nail.
Well, duh. Why wouldn't you fight something that's bad for you? But at some point, the appeals process is over and then you have to comply with the governing legal authority.
Show me one EU order with which Microsoft hasn't complied.
Re:So don't change. (390 comments)
You can't build pure
The goal isn't to create "Python for Windows" -- as you point out, CPython already works quite well under Windows. The goal is to allow expand the language choice of developers targeting

Or, what would be your usual courese of action to get the file size down?
WBLOCK to new drawing
DXFout to R12 then DXFin
All of the above.
