Audit firm begins investigation into Manatee Schools spending woes
Date: November 13, 2012
by: Josh Siegel | Staff writer
At the Nov. 11 Manatee County School Board meeting, internal Auditor Ed Daugherty revealed progress and cooperation in Navigant's external forensic audit.
But the update shed little light on what the investigator's have learned so far and when the probe, which seeks to find out how the district ended up with a $3.4 million shortfall, will finish.
"The auditors have told me several times everybody has been very cooperative and open," Daugherty said. "They are not at the point of being able to tell us when they are going to be able to wrap this thing up."
Daugherty said Tim McGonegal, the former superintendent who resigned in the aftermath of the budget crisis, has been interviewed, as have other district employees.
In other business at the meeting—Board Chairman Harry Kinnan's last— the board gave an update of its superintendent search. Kinnan said that the board has nearly picked its Citizen's Advisory Committee. The group will meet with Wayne Blanton of the Florida School Boards Association on Dec. 5. Also, brochures advertising the position have been made and printed and an ad in Education Week magazine began running last week.

8 Prevention Tips for Hepatitis C Infection
- By Karen Appold | Medically reviewed by Niya Jones, MD, MPH
Hepatitis C is a dangerous virus that affects your liver. You can be exposed to hepatitis C infection if you come into contact with the blood of someone who has the disease. Up to 5 million people in the United States have hepatitis C, but 75 percent of them don't know it because they don't have any symptoms.
Protect yourself by knowing how hepatitis C is spread and then taking precautions to prevent infection.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Blood Transfusions
The hepatitis C virus was not identified until 1989, and it wasn't until three years later, in 1992, that widespread screening for the virus in the US blood supply began.
Prevention tip: "Anyone who received a blood transfusion before 1992 is at risk for having been infected with hepatitis C and should ask their primary care doctor to be tested," says Ponni Perumalswami, MD,assistant professor of medicine in liver diseases at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. Blood donors are now tested for hepatitis C, which has virtually eliminated contamination from the current blood supply.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Organ Transplants
Similar to how hepatitis C is spread from blood transfusions, if you received an organ transplant before 1992, you're at risk for having hepatitis C if the donor was infected with the virus, Dr. Perumalswami says.
Prevention tip: Ask your doctor to get tested if you had an organ transplant before 1992. Precautions are now taken to screen donor organs before a transplant, virtually eliminating this risk.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Intravenous Drug Use
Using intravenous drugs ranks high among hepatitis C infection causes. In fact, it's the cause of more than 50 percent of the new hepatitis C cases in the United States. "Because the virus is transmitted through contact with blood, sharing drug solution, syringes, or other drug preparation equipment increases your risk of transmission if any of these items are infected with hepatitis C," Perumalswami explains.
Prevention tip: If you use intravenous drugs, never share needles and only use sterile equipment.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Tattoos and Piercings
Another way hepatitis C is spread is through equipment used for tattoos and body piercings if it isn't properly sterilized after being used on someone who has the virus. According to a recent study done at the NYU Langone Medical Center and published in the journal Hepatology, getting tattoos by itself is a risk factor for hepatitis C.
Prevention tip: Only have a licensed professional give you a tattoo or piercing.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Sex
Some sexual practices can increase your likelihood of contracting the hepatitis C infection. The risk of hepatitis C infection is increased by having many sexual partners, partaking in high risk sexual activities, being infected with HIV, and sex between men.
Prevention tip: Use a latex condom when having sex.
Hepatitis C Transmission From Mother to Child
Pregnant women with hepatitis C have a 4 to 7 percent chance of passing hepatitis C virus infection on to their baby. The risk of infection does not increase whether you have a vaginal birth or Caesarean section, unless you also have HIV.
Prevention tip: If you have hepatitis C, your doctor should not do internal fetal monitoring (a way to check for fetal distress) or allow for prolonged rupture of membranes — the time between your water breaking and delivery. Both of these place your baby at a greater risk of hepatitis C transmission.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Accidental Needle Sticks
If you work in a health care facility and do needle sticks, you have a higher risk of acquiring the hepatitis C infection.
Prevention tip: Always follow all safety protocols on the job to avoid hepatitis C transmission through a needle stick. Never put a needle back in its cover after using it. Always place the needle in a specially designed, rigid, puncture-proof needle container.
Hepatitis C Transmission Through Sharing Personal Items
You can get the hepatitis C infection by using an infected person's personal items that are contaminated with even small amounts of their blood. Exposure to blood on a toothbrush, nail clippers, or razor are all potential hepatitis C infection causes. You can also get it by coming into contact with an infected person's blood, if, for instance, he or she gets a cut and you help bandage it. Prevention tip: Never share personal items. If you know someone has the hepatitis C infection — and especially if you don't know whether he or she does — wear gloves if you come into contact with blood.

Full detailed profile on Nikolas Cassadine Played by Tyler Christopher on General Hospital Daytime Soap Opera.
Tyler Christopher (ABC)
Birthday: 1972-11-11 |
At Wyndemere, Dante assures Lulu that Anna is working hard to get Ben back. Dante, Nik and Lulu all beg Britt to help but she swears she has no idea where they went. Dante can't arrest Britt for kidnapping so he arrests her for stealing the embryos. She pleads for Nik to help her but he tells her she's on her own. Later, Nik tells Lulu he doesn't think Liesl will hurt Ben and is confident they will find him soon. Lulu frets he will slip through their fingers like their daughter did. "Maybe a baby isn't meant to be," she says. She blames herself for having an abortion. Nik blames himself for believing Britt. He was in love with her and even pushed Lulu to accept her. But he doesn't love her anymore. Sonny and Olivia rush in and tell them they are working on getting leads of their own. Olivia refuses to let them lose this baby.
At Wydnermere, Lucas drags Brad into a room and orders him to confess all that he knew about the baby brouhaha. Brad tries to lie but he stinks at it. Lucas lectures him. Brad makes excuses and insists he was about to come clean. He points out that Obrecht tried to kill him. That doesn't make much difference to Lucas. "Goodbye Brad," he says, walking out. Out in the hall, Nikolas lectures Britt for stealing his sister's baby. "It was an embryo!" she objects. She makes excuses but he insists she's to blame for all of this. Britt rehashes and cries about her feelings. The prince waves his arms and wonders how she can live with herself. She says he's the only person who has ever understood her. He can only think of the secrets she's kept. He can't love or trust her anymore. "The engagement is off," he declares, ordering her to give his ring back. She makes more excuses but he's still furious and orders her out. Upstairs, Lulu and Dante are disturbed to find Dr. Obrecht with the baby. The doctor tells them they are delusional if they want to take Ben. Dante shows her the confession and promises she and her daughter will pay. She refuses to hand the kid over and whips out a blade. The baby yawns and Obrecht strolls out sneering. Dante and Lulu run downstairs and catch Nikolas shoving Britt out the door.
At Wyndemere, Lulu interrupts Nik's speech, screaming for Britt to get her hands off her son. Dante and Nik try to stop Lulu and Liesl accuses her of losing her mind. Nik blocks Lulu so Liesl can leave with Ben. Alexis, Julian, Sam and Silas decide to hit the road but Lucas decides to stick around with Brad. Lulu finally tells Dante and Nik that she has proof that Britt used their embryos and Brad was in on it. In another room, Tracy tells Sonny that she saw Julian with Luke in the stables. Julian and Luke enter just then and Sonny asks Luke why he would be with Julian. Luke says he ran into him when he went to grab a cigar and issued a warning to treat Lucas well. Tracy appears but Sonny asks to speak to Luke alone. He tells Luke that Julian has a backer and he thinks it's Ric. Sonny doesn't think Julian's vendetta is only about power and territory. Luke suggests Sonny take out Ric. Sonny thinks that's extreme but Luke says it's kill or be killed. Sonny won't dole out death that easily and Luke hopes Sonny is making the right decision. In Ben's room, Liz tells Ric that Lulu knows the truth about her son. Ric tells her about Alexis and Sonny's suspicions that he's mixed up with Julian, but he insists he isn't. Ric wants to get closer to Sonny but he can't blame Sonny for not trusting him. He suggests gathering up Cam and hitting the road before Lulu turns the castle into a crime scene. Unless she wants to stay? He thinks she sees this as her chance with Nik. Liesl enters with Ben and tells them her grandson needs to sleep. Liz scoffs and tells her they know the truth and together they leave. Meanwhile, Lulu tells everyone about the letter but realizes she doesn't have it. Britt pounces, screaming for Lulu to produce it. Liz enters just then, letter in hand. Britt tearfully begs Nik not to read it, but he does. Tracy enters and joins Lucas. Nik asks Britt for an answer and Liz scoffs. Nik turns on Liz. He calls her a hypocrite, Saint Elizabeth looking down on these moral beasts when she has upended plenty of lives of her own. He accuses her of orchestrating a public scene and throws her out. Ric steps in to take her home and Nik screams even louder about her judgment being with Ric. Lucas ushers Brad out as Nik threatens him too. Outside, Lucas demands Brad tell him how much he had to do with it all. Inside, Britt admits the truth. Dante cries about the guilt he felt over having a baby without Lulu. Lulu and Dante rejoice in the fact they have a baby and leave to get Ben. Nik has to hold Britt back from following them. Meanwhile, Liesl promises Ben she will correct the situation. When Dante and Lulu go to Ben's room, they are both gone.
At Wyndemere, Sam and Silas find Sonny by the bar. She asks about her mom and Sonny claims he hasn't seen her. Olivia strolls over and chats with Corinthos. He's jumpy. Meanwhile, Silas and Sam wander across the room to chat with the prince. Tracy runs into Lucas. They wonder why Obrecht sent him off to find Lulu. Across the room, Dante worries about Lulu to Britt. Out on the parapet, Dr. Obrecht threatens to cut Brad's tongue out if he blabs about Britt. Brad cowers. She threatens to throw him off the building. The doctor tells him about Catherine's death and says there is nothing she wouldn't do to protect her daughter. Brad shrivels up. She shoves him over the edge. He lands on some hay. She pulls him out and tells him she won't be so generous next time. Lucas catches them together. They tell him Brad just had a few too many drinks. Julian heads out to the stables to meet with Luke. "I thought no one was supposed to know we were working together?" Julian asks. Luke reminds Julian that he works for him and he doesn't want him ruining his chance to destroy Sonny. Although Julian makes excuses, Luke isn't impressed by the lousy job he's been doing. He wants controlling interest in ELQ. That's why he proposed to Tracy, in spite of the fact that it hampers his chance to chase women. Luke announces that it's time to up the ante in their war against Sonny. He explains secretively. "That's a bold move," muses Julian. Tracy interrupts. Luke claims he's just out there for a cigar. She still doesn't know why he's talking to Julian. Luke says he was just putting him on notice to treat Lucas right. He sends her out so he can 'look for his lighter'. After repeating to Julian that he wants results, they walk off. Spencer comes out of hiding. Back in the main house, Alexis follows Ric into a side room and eavesdrops, only to be surprised to catch him chatting with Cameron. She tries to run so he nags her and she admits she thought he was with Julian. He's confused and wonders if she is trying to set him up. They begin bickering about Julian until Sonny wanders in. The half-brothers pick up the bickering. Ric insists that he is not working to take him down and wants to put the bad blood behind them. Sonny doesn't buy it. Ric and Cam leave for dessert. Sonny and Alexis bicker. Once she leaves, Tracy shows up. They do some bickering of their own. She tells him that he's just 'a charismatic thug with dimples' and his days are numbered. She mentions that she just saw Julian with Luke. Meanwhile, Liz runs upstairs with Britt's confession in her hand. She finds Lulu and tries explaining what the note says. Lulu finds that hard to accept and won't read the note. Liz keeps explaining. Lulu goes into denial but finally reads the confession. She shudders when it gets through to her and she realizes she's not crazy; she's really Ben's mother. "I'm going to go get my son!" she declares. Downstairs, Nikolas and Britt have gathered their guests together for dinner. Once the prince makes a toast, Lulu runs in and blurts at Britt, "Get your hands off of my son!"
At Wyndemere, Sam tells Silas about sleeping with her stepfather, Ric. They have a few drinks and then find a quiet place in the stable. She explains what happened in detail. "I'm not that person anymore," she says. Silas says he's in no position to judge. Back in the main hall, Lucas assures Tracy that Luke is really a good guy. She hopes so. They toast to it. Over in the corner, Nikolas chokes when Luke tells him that Britt is "one hot piece of ass." This leads to some arguing. "Look Prince Prig, pull the stick out of your ass!" Luke bellows before trashing him for being a Cassadine. The prince orders him to leave. Luke snickers and walks off as Tracy trails after him. Lucas strolls off to find Brad as Britt finishes telling him to keep their secret quiet. Once Britt is gone, Brad confesses to his date that he and the doctor are 'partners in crime'. He explains what he did. Lucas starts asking about Dante's stolen sperm. Meanwhile, Obrecht isn't convinced that her daughter has done enough to keep Brad's mouth shut. She decides to be 'pro-active'. That worries Britt. Obrecht goes off to interrupt Lucas and Brad. "What's your problem, lady?" asks Lucas. He lays into her over the baby debacle. When he leaves to look for Lulu, the doctor tells Brad that he won't be seeing Lucas anymore. Meanwhile, Sonny and Alexis bicker in a corner about the Jeromes. She wanders off to eavesdrop on Ric and Julian. Emma and Cameron interrupt to chat with Ric. Spencer mopes around. Sonny sees him running off distraught. They sit in the hall and Spence complains about losing the love of his life. The mobster tells the kid that Cam didn't steal Emma. Spencer just drove her away. "What's important to a good girl is a good man," he says, advising Spencer not to make the same mistake again. Back down the hall, Alexis quizzes Julian about being 'chummy' with Ric. He claims they were just discussing Lucas. When his phone rings, she 'accidentally' spills wine on him. As she sops it up, she takes hold of his phone and reads the message he received. After guessing it was sent by someone there, she goes off to investigate only to find Ric hanging out with Cameron. Sonny finds Nikolas and they chat about Spencer. Out in the garden, Olivia and her son bicker about Lulu looking like the baby. He worries about his wife and how much this situation 'sucks' for her. Lulu is upstairs playing with Ben and telling herself that he isn't her son. Tracy shows up looking for Luke. Lulu rehashes her abortion and sobs. Tracy assures her she's not being punished for it. Britt interrupts. She takes the baby and heads downstairs. Down the hall, Liz unfolds and reads the Valentine to discover Britt's confession inside. She's shocked by what she reads. Ric wanders in and she explains what she's learned. She wants to run off and tell Nikolas but Ric stops her to ask why she really wants to do that. Liz rushes off to find Lulu. Meanwhile, Julian heads out to the stable to meet with Luke.
At Wyndemere, Spencer answers the door in his smoking jacket and tells Emma she looks 'scrumptious'. He offers her some pigs in blankets. Looking worried, she explains that she has a confession to make. Upstairs, Britt sits in her room and mulls over everything that's happened. She gets changed for the party. Nikolas walks in and drops his jaw at her outfit. They eventually get downstairs in time to greet Luke and Tracy. Luke can't remember meeting Britt before. He stares and hands out compliments. Tracy glares at him. Britt goes on to greet the other guests. Dante and his parents go off to see Ben but Lulu decides not to. As Olivia babbles to Ben, she notices how much the baby looks like Lulu. "C'mon, stop!" says Dante, asking them to cool it on talking like that because it will upset his wife. Back downstairs, Britt and Nik continue welcoming guests. Things are chilly between Julian and the prince. Cam, Liz and Ric are next. When Cam finds the other kids, he finds Emma crying after Spencer has yelled at her for breaking the egg he gave her. Cameron hands her a valentine. She likes it so Spencer has a fit and stomps on the card. Emma doesn't like Spencer anymore and walks off with the other boy. Back down the hall, Ric tells Liz they could be good together again. Sonny interrupts. Things are cold between the half-brothers. Liz slips off to look for her son. She finds the valentine and opens it up. It's Britt's confession. Meanwhile, Brad and Lucas stroll around the mansion. Things get awkward when Lucas starts babbling about Lulu's eggs. Brad is about to say something when Obrecht rears her head. Lucas runs away and the doctor accuses Brad of nearly blabbing. She reminds him that could land him in jail. Meanwhile, Lulu runs into Lucas and they chat about Ben. She's not thrilled when he tells her he's dating Brad. Obrecht slips away to corner her daughter. She warns her about Brad. Britt treks over to see Brad. She suggests he take his own advice: write a confession and burn it. Across the room, Ric tries talking to Sam but Silas shuts that down. Sam tells her boyfriend that she slept with Ric when he was her stepfather. Silas gulps. Off in a corner, Luke and Nikolas chat. The prince thanks him for coming and Luke wishes him well. Nikolas starts coughing when Luke tells him that Britt is "one hot piece of ass."
Britt dreams Lulu has found out Ben's hers. She wakes up with a gasp, in bed with Nik at Wyndemere. Nik produces a dress for the evening before she heads to work. Later, Nik sees Emily's ghost. She tells him she wants his happiness. He is happy. Ghost Emily cautions him to ask himself if he's marrying the right woman. When she prompts him, he admits he loves Liz. He always will in a way but it's in the past. She asks, "Like the love we had?" He says nobody could ever take her place. He tells the apparition that Britt's his future. Ghost Emily tries to get him to smile but his smile turns to tears.
At Wyndemere, Nikolas and Britt have breakfast and discuss their engagement party. She thought they were going to cancel it but he insists it's going ahead. They start making out. Spencer runs in and yelps that Ben is gone. He starts looking under the cushions and then begins moaning about how Emma has ripped out his heart. His father explains that Emma has other issues to deal with right now. Spencer runs off as Lulu comes in. After Britt wanders off to check on Ben, Lulu tells the prince about her dream. As they discuss her feelings, Britt listens at the door.
Nik runs into Liz at Kelly's. They have an awkward conversion about AJ and then the topic turns to the wedding. He tells her how important she still is to him. She still can't go. It would be too humiliating for her. He suggests she find a date. Ric appears and offers. He and the prince trade some barbs. Liz agrees to let Ric be her date. Once Nikolas leaves, Ric asks her why she agreed but doesn't get much of an answer. She heads off. Shawn and Ric start sneering at each other.
At the Floating Rib, Prince Nik wants to hold an engagement party at Wyndemere. Britt doesn't really have friends and family to attend but Nik says his friends are hers. The baby gurgles and Britt asks if this includes Elizabeth. Nik assures Britt that Liz has agreed to put the baby drama behind them. Britt asks why Liz stopped by last night and Nik flashes to Liz confessing her love for him.

This sure would be great right now... (4-5 years later)
Thank god someone at Autodesk was smart enough that as long as you copy and keep the name the same the IDW views associated with that don't go up in smoke.
I use design view reps for assembly steps for the floor people. There are many times when I need to add operations (view reps) or move them around,etc...
Anyone know whether this has been implemented in IV2012?
I would also like to express my interest in such an option!

Christopher and Banks Corp. shares rose nearly 10 percent Tuesday after it beat estimates in its fiscal first quarter results.
The stock also may have been buoyed by the company's outlook. The specialty women's clothing retailer is "on track to deliver on our three-year growth plan," CEO LuAnn Via said in a statement.
Its stock closed up 64 cents, or 9.6 percent, to $7.29 per share on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Plymouth-based firm earned $2.6 million, or 7 cents a diluted share, in the quarter that ended May 3. That was well above the 2 cents a share that Wall Street analysts expected. A year ago, the company earned $600,000, or 2 cents a share.
Revenue was $103.4 million, down 4.7 percent from $108.5 million a year ago. Sales at comparable stores were down 0.2 percent.
The company has closed less-profitable locations in the past year and operated 9 percent fewer stores in the latest period than it did a year ago.
"While our comparable-store sales were slightly below our expectations for the quarter, we saw business improve as the weather became more seasonal, and we exceeded our gross margin expansion target," Via said.

Device that produces an intense beam of coherent light (light composed of waves having a constant difference in phase). Its name, an acronym derived from light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation, describes how its beam is produced. The first laser, constructed in 1960 by Theodore Maiman (born 1927) based on earlier work by Charles H. Townes, used a rod of ruby. Light of a suitable wavelength from a flashlight excited (see excitation) the ruby atoms to higher energy levels. The excited atoms decayed swiftly to slightly lower energies (through phonon reactions) and then fell more slowly to the ground state, emitting light at a specific wavelength. The light tended to bounce back and forth between the polished ends of the rod, stimulating further emission. The laser has found valuable applications in microsurgery, compact-disc players, communications, and holography, as well as for drilling holes in hard materials, alignment in tunnel drilling, long-distance measurement, and mapping fine details.

Bow collector
This article does not cite any references or sources. (December 2009) |
A bow collector is one of the three main devices used on tramcars to transfer electric current from the wires above to the tram below. While once very common in continental Europe, it has now been largely replaced by the pantograph.
When the bow collector was first conceived by German inventor Ernst Werner von Siemens in the late 1880s, American inventor Frank J. Sprague of Virginia had just patented his trolley pole system of current collection from an overhead wire. To avoid contravening this patent, the Siemens company was forced to design its own, unique form of current collection, namely the bow collector. The bow collector was first used by the Siemens electric company in its early electric tramcars in either the late 1880s or early 1890s. The Hobart electric tramway system - the first of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere, opened in 1893 - used Siemens cars with very early bow collectors. Many other continental European and some English tramway systems also used this method.
The bow collector is one of the simplest and most reliable methods of current collection used on tramways. The very earliest versions were simply very heavy-gauge wire or steel bars bent into a rectangular shape and mounted long-side-down on the tramcar roof. The height of the collector was such that its top edge would scrape along the wire above. The top section is made of a 1 inch broad (or thereabouts) steel rod, machined to have a bow-shaped cross section, hence the name. This bow shaped rod is referred to as the 'collector plate', and in later models may be up to several inches wide. Unlike many trolley poles, the bow collector does not normally have a revolving base (one exception was in Rome, where the entire assembly could be revolved), but is rather fixed centrally to the tramcar roof.
In the late 1900s the simple framing methods mentioned above were gradually replaced by more complex and sophisticated methods, but the general mode of operation remained the same. The changes of design are most noticeable on systems where both double- and single-deck cars were used on the same system. Single deck trams usually have tall and lightly constructed collectors with complicated frames to support the heavy cast-steel collector plate, while double deck cars usually have heavier collectors with less complicated frames.
To maintain good electrical contact, the bow collector must exert quite strong pressure on the wire above, and so complicated systems of springs or weights were put into use to ensure good electrical contact, and hence efficient operation was maintained.
The steel rails on the tracks act as the electrical return.
Properly the bow collector should be mounted in such a way so that the top edge of the collector plate would rise several inches above the wire when the collector frame is standing straight up. Thus the collector usually leans opposite to the direction of travel; when the time comes to travel in the opposite direction, the collector must be swung over. To allow this to happen, the overhead wire must be raised by several inches at places where the bows are swung over, such as terminals and turn-outs. This operation is usually achieved by ropes and pulleys. The collector is folded down to a horizontal position when the car is not in use.
Some early cars had no means to swing the bows over. It was thought that this would happen automatically when the tramcar started travelling the other way, but collectors such as these were a failure.
Most Soviet trams (of which some are still in use in ex-USSR) had no means to swing the bows over. These trams were not designed to travel two ways. Another example is KTV-55-2 tramcar which had two bow collectors for the two directions of travelling.
Advantages and Modern Usage[edit]
The bow collector has fewer moving parts than the trolley pole, but is heavier and sometimes more complicated to construct. The construction of overhead wires for bow collectors is simpler than trolley pole wiring. As bow collectors do not have revolving mountings, the collector cannot jump off the wire or follow the wrong one at intersections, as trolley poles sometimes do. Thus overhead 'frogs' and guides for trolley poles are not necessary with bow collectors. Bow collectors are, however, much noisier than trolley poles.
The overhead wires for bow collectors are stretched tighter than for trolley poles, and straight sections are 'staggered', that is, the wire does not run completely straight down the centreline of the track, but rather zig-zags slightly across a small distance. This distributes wear across the bow collector's collector plate, and extends the collector's life.
In addition to some vintage tramways, bow collectors are still used in some tram systems in the former Soviet Union, e. g., in Kazan, Minsk, and Dzerzhinsk. They are also used by the Snaefell Mountain Railway on the Isle of Man.

I am looking for a plant my grandmother grew. I believe it is called oxalis articulata, jointed woodsorrel. It has clover like leaves and with numerous little pink flowers. It blooms in spring/early summer and is about 6 inches tall. The leaves stay green and pretty all year, even in winter, in the Cullman area. I have not been able to locate this old timey variety to purchase. I would like to purchase 25 or more for my mother. Please let me know if anyone knows where this particular plant can be found. I have a couple of these plants from my grandmother's garden. I do not have enough for my mother's desire for a mass planting of these old timey jewels. Thanks,

I'm an audio lover that prefers smaller speakers in smaller spaces and i
don't need/want 5-8 speakers in my listening space. I have found that i
prefer the effect of vocals/sound effects that are mixed in center in
stereo speakers, over a center channel. It sounds more natural and
rounded to me.I would think that the same thing could be done in the rear speakers of
course and also front to back by adjusting the front-back balance of
sounds.Couldn't one create the sound of a fly moving through out a room simply
by adjusting the balance of 4 speakers?If so why do we need more than 4 speakers?
I have an audio system for which i'd like to set up 4 channels. I have 2
Anthony Gallo Acoustic Reference 3.1s and would like to swap them out
for 4 Stradas and 4 subs (with some extra money of course).If i do that and play back a 5.1 or 7.1 movie soundtrack or music disc
what am i going to not have vs a full 5 or 7 channel set up?Will things down-mix properly (using pulse audio for reference)?

Bible in Basic English (BBE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had given him no children; and she had a servant, a woman of Egypt whose name was Hagar. | 1 Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had borne him no children. But she had an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar; |
2 And Sarai said to Abram, See, the Lord has not let me have children; go in to my servant, for I may get a family through her. And Abram did as Sarai said. | 2 so she said to Abram, "The LORD has kept me from having children. Go, sleep with my maidservant; perhaps I can build a family through her." Abram agreed to what Sarai said. |
3 So after Abram had been living for ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian servant, and gave her to Abram for his wife. | 3 So after Abram had been living in Canaan ten years, Sarai his wife took her Egyptian maidservant Hagar and gave her to her husband to be his wife. |
4 And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife. | 4 He slept with Hagar, and she conceived. When she knew she was pregnant, she began to despise her mistress. |
5 And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me. | 5 Then Sarai said to Abram, "You are responsible for the wrong I am suffering. I put my servant in your arms, and now that she knows she is pregnant, she despises me. May the LORD judge between you and me." |
6 And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her. | 6 "Your servant is in your hands," Abram said. "Do with her whatever you think best." Then Sarai mistreated Hagar; so she fled from her. |

International standards for drug control are increasingly unscientific and deleterious.
Tagged: Drugs
The way drugs are developed and sold hurts the world's poor.
The worst thing the U.S. military could do in Afghanistan right now is forced eradication of poppies, because it would alienate peasant farmers and drive them into the arms of the Taliban. The farmers will turn to illicit crops to feed their families.
In seven days, the Andean region went from the brink of war to a grudging peace. But as columnist Laura Carlsen reports, all is still not well.
The U.S. Military reconfigures its unpopular presence in Latin America.
Poppies are the go-to crop for many Afghan farmers. Here's a way to change that.

When a cancer cell sloughs off the edge of a tumor in the breast, it faces a tough road to survive. The cell must not only remain physically intact as it rushes through blood vessels, but it also must find a new organ to lodge itself in, take in enough nutrients and oxygen to stay alive, and begin dividing, all while escaping notice by the body's immune system.
A team of Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) scientists has discovered that some loose breast cancer cells, have a leg up on survivalthe genes they express make them more likely to prosper in bone tissue. The team also found that whether or not cancer cells turn on those genes depends on what their surroundings were like in the primary breast tumor. If the breast tumor had molecular patterns similar to those found in bone, the tumor is more likely to spread to bone later.
"It's like in society -- who you hang out with shapes who you are," says HHMI investigator Joan Massagu of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. "And that might make you better or worse equipped to handle situations you'll encounter."
The new findings, published August 29, 2013 in the journal Cell, could eventually lead to new drugs that block cancers from spreading to bone or other organs, he says.
When cells from a primary tumor circulate through the body and begin growing in a new organ, a metastatic tumor is formed. Such metastases are often harder to treat than primary tumors; the vast majority of people who die of cancer have not only a primary tumor but also metastatic disease. So a major goal of cancer researchers is to not only find ways to treat primary tumors, but stop cancer from metastasizing.
Massagu's lab group discovered in 2009 that by looking at the genetics of breast cancer cells, they could predict which were most likely to spread to bone. A set of genes dubbed the Src response signature (SRS) was more often turned on in the cells that metastasized to the bone. But the researchers

NEW DELHI: Information and broadcasting minister Ambika Soni and tourism minister Subodh Kant Sahai on Saturday submitted their resignation to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Social justice and empowerment minister Mukul Wasnik also resigned from the Union Cabinet on Friday evening.
The Cabinet reshuffle will take place at 11:30am tomorrow, Rashtrapati Bhavan spokesperson Venu Rajamony said today. Some more ministers are likely to quit ahead of the reshuffle, which could be the last before the Lok Sabha elections slated for 2014.
Earlier on Friday, PM accepted the resignation of external affairs minister S M Krishna, hours after the latter had forwarded his resignation in anticipation of Sunday's proposed reshuffle of the Union Cabinet.
Wasnik said after meeting Manmohan Singh on Saturday: "I have already submitted my resignation to the Prime Minister on Friday evening."
These developments came as the Prime Minister met UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi for a one-on-one meeting that reportedly discussed the Cabinet reshuffle.
Krishna said that he wanted to give a free hand to Prime Minister Singh during the reshuffle.
In recent times, Krishna has been dogged by several controversies, including a Lokayukta report against him and his decision to go to England to watch tennis matches at Wimbledon.
His resignation comes a day after a special Lokayukta court ordered its police to probe the involvement former Karnataka chief minister B S Yeddyurappa and Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Devegowda in the alleged Mysore-Bangalore Express Highway scam.
The suspense over Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi joining the government remains.
Sources said Jyotiraditya Scindia and Sachin Pilot are among those likely to be elevated. The reshuffle could also involve some ministers caught in controversies like coal minister Sriprakash Jaiswal.
The NCP has already said it will replace its minister Agatha Sangma. She is likely to be replaced by senior leader Tariq Anwar.

It's been years since the huge flop of Miracle at St. Anna — and those subsequent years were only occupied by various documentary work — but, now, Spike Lee is truly back. Red Hook Summer is the quasi-follow-up to his 1989 classic, Do the Right Thing, telling a story about adolescence, religious power, and the dangers of certain authorities. It's been getting mixed notices since its Sundance premiere (we liked it), but I'm already there.
The first trailer is a little spotty — like what many say about the actual film, it's a bit scattered, somewhat misshaped, and looks oddly cheap — though the second half has the kind of raw passion we've come to expect from Lee; spread over some 135 minutes, I get the sense Red Hook Summer could really pack a punch. Fingers crossed some of his recent retooling brings the project full circle.
Watch the trailer below (via Apple):
"The latest in Spike Lee's Chronicles of Brooklyn anthology–which also includes "She's Gotta Have It" (1986), "Do The Right Thing" (1989), "Crooklyn" (1994), "Clockers" (1995), and "He Got Game" (1998)–RED HOOK SUMMER tells the story of Flik Royale (Jules Brown), a sullen young boy from middle-class Atlanta who has come to spend the summer with his deeply religious grandfather, Bishop Enoch Rouse (Clarke Peters), in the housing projects of Red Hook. Having never met before, things quickly get off on the wrong foot as Bishop Enoch relentlessly attempts to convert Flik into a follower of Jesus Christ. Between his grandfather's constant preaching and the culture shock of inner-city life, Flik's summer appears to be a total disaster–until he meets Chazz Morningstar (Toni Lysaith), a pretty girl his age, who shows Flik the brighter side of Brooklyn. Through her love and the love of his grandfather, Flik begins to realize that the world is a lot bigger, and perhaps a lot better, than he'd ever imagined."
Red Hook Summer will open on August 10th.
Does Red Hook Summer make a good impression with this first trailer?

The Accord coupe is one of those cars that we take for granted. Then you get in it and realize why the Accord is one of the best-selling cars year after year. For many buyers, the coupe has just enough flair, even if it's far from a sports car. And although no one will ever confuse the Accord coupe with a BMW 3-series coupe, the Honda is no slacker in the performance department, because it's got a smooth and refined V-6 making a completely respectable 271 hp. Actually, when you think about it, 271 hp for a front-wheel-drive coupe is more than respectable: it's impressive. I also liked our car's silky six-speed manual transmission.
I drove home last night and back again this morning in our first major snowstorm of winter 2010, and the Accord coupe plowed through 3-5 inches of the white stuff quite handily, even though it has only all-season tires rather than dedicated snow tires. The two-setting seat heater warmed up quickly and soon became hot enough that I needed to turn it to low, and both the front and rear defrosters did their thing rapidly as well.
The interior of the Accord coupe is pretty luxurious, also, for a mainstream car, and the ergonomics are generally first-rate. There are quite a few buttons in the center stack to control radio, climate, and such, but they are easy to figure out quickly.

Groundbreaking Research Reveals Junior Bankers "Fairly Pleased About" Not Working 100 Hour/Week Anymore
By Bess LevinOver the past year or so, every major bank on Wall Street has implemented policies aimed at improving the lives their youngest employees, analysts, from absolutely miserable to relatively tolerable. Citi gave Saturdays (but not Sundays) off. Credit Suisse also went for the 36-hour weekend. Bank of America said that while it did "not encourage weekend work" in the first place, its junior bankers should feel free to take "some weekends off." JP Morgan introduced the patent-pending "protected weekend." Goldman Sachs barred junior bankers from entering the office between 9PM Friday and 9AM Sunday (with the expectation that they would "check their blackberries on a regular basis over the weekend").
To the outside world, these changes seemed reasonable and maybe even long overdue. But inside, there was a fear that it was possible this was all happening too fast. After years of being told to not make plans, ever, that the only personal relationships they could have would be with their desk and chair, and that they were to be reachable at all times via Blackberry, whether Pop-Pop was on his deathbed or not, how would the junior bankers take to all this freedom? Would they know how to exist in a world in which they only had to work 80 hours a week? Would they even like it? Or like prisoners who've adjusted to life under their captors' regimes, or house cats that suddenly find themselves out in the jungle, would they be unable to adjust to and navigate an existence post-release, wishing to go back to comforting if confining lives they once knew?
The answer may surprise you.
When someone gets irrationally excited about having Saturday off, it's a good sign they work in finance. The luxury of free time is new to young and aspiring investment bankers, from whom 100-hour workweeks were once commonly expected. It turns out there's little nostalgia for those days…A new survey shows that fresh-faced financial services employees are happier with the balance of work and play than they were a year earlier. The data were released in advance of an annual ranking of banks based on their employees' satisfaction conducted by career services website Vault.com. The 3,600 banking professionals polled rated their employers 3 percent higher on work-life policies than they did in 2013. They were also slightly cheerier about how many hours they're asked to put in overall. "You get to workout [sic] and eat a relaxing dinner Monday through Thursday," an anonymous analyst told Vault.com…Banking grunts, a group that once signed away any chance at life in the interest of proving its ambition, suddenly has a perk that money can't buy: time. Members seem fairly pleased about it.

Lot less money sloshing around the bank; maybe editing a deck for the 19th time can wait

Huh? You mean we are not supposed to send the deck that says 'first draft'?

If you had Saturday night off, and were at POD 39, then you got to witness Bess rocking some serious side boob. I liked it and I'm bi.
I just love Bess!!!! I find her to be such an inspiration to me :) I'm only 14 buh someday I hope to have a blog like hers and I love her outfits. She knows how to dress well, and doesnt take drugs or party like other disney stars.
Tired of being compared to damn Britney Spears, she's so pretty that just ain't me.

I have an alter-ego. An evil alter-ego. I'm Catholic, but love getting into fights! Danny Adams is his name. Makes me do bad things like spit on my intern.

Fall 2011 New York Fashion Week: Diane von Furstenberg 2011-02-13 15:41:25
Diane von Furstenberg and Yvan Mispelaere Show a Glitzy and Glamorous Collection For Fall 2011
>> Diane von Furstenberg and co-designer Yvan Mispelaere's theme for DVF's Fall 2011 collection was "American Legends," specifically referencing Millicent Rogers, Diana Vreeland, and Gloria Vanderbilt, in which von Furstenberg explained as runway explorations of "rodeo, editor in chief, and society lady." So it was only fitting to have a few leading ladies — Barbara Walters, Diane Sawyer, Molly Sims, Fergie, and Maggie Q — sitting front row at the event yesterday to check out the eccentric and eclectic sea of colorful liquid sequin gowns, graphic gaucho wraps, print pajama suits, "like the ones I used to wear to Studio 54," said von Furstenberg, along with leather jackets, and her signature wrap dresses.
High slits, an overarching theme thus far during Fashion Week, also made their way on the runway in addition to sleek silk tunic dresses styled with Western-inspired hats and stacked knee-high boots. Von Furstenberg's throwback references, like '70s-inspired pleated dresses, and modern, via a cropped star-embellished jacket, were seamlessly intertwined, creating a covetable collection for any stylefile.

Carter had been dealing with an ankle injury, but was able to return briefly. He played just six minutes, scoring five points.
According to multiple media reports, Carter will sign a three-year deal worth $12.2 million with the Grizzlies. ESPN.com reports the Mavericks offered Carter a two-year deal worth $8 million to return, but could not officially make that offer with their cap space tied up in other offers.
Carter had a solid age-37 season, averaging 11.9 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 24.4 minutes per game.
Carter scored 16 points on 4 of 11 shooting, with all of his makes coming from three-point range. He also went to 4 for 6 from the free-throw line, while adding five rebounds, two steals, an assist and a block, though he also turned the ball over four times in 26 minutes in the 128-119 overtime win.
Carter is enjoying another solid season off the bench for the Mavericks, averaging 11.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, while appearing in 71 of the first 72 games of the season.
Carter has put together a nice three-game stretch, scoring at least 17 points in three straight games for the first time this season. He also kicked in two rebounds, two assists and one steal Wednesday. Carter has averaged 11.7 points and 3.5 rebounds over 58 games played.
Thee of Carter's treys came in the opening period. He scored 23 points on 8 of 17 from the floor, including 7 of 12 from 3-point land. He also contributed with three rebounds, three assists and one block while logging 26 minutes of game action. He is averaging 14.8 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.0 assists over his last five games.
Carter played his usual role off the bench, logging 24 minutes. After scoring just 11 points in the previous two games, he scored 13 on 5 of 8 shooting Wednesday. He also added two rebounds and seven assists, while turning the ball over just once in the 110-96 win.
Carter has taken a bit of a step back this season, averaging 11.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game on just 41.4 percent shooting.
Carter is enjoying a solid run since the start of the new year, averaging 13.4 points per game in five January contests. He is averaging 11.4 points per game for the season.
Carter went 5 of 10 shooting from the field, including 3 of 5 from beyond the arc, and 2 of 3 from the free throw line. He finished the game with 15 points, nine assists and six rebounds, with three of them coming from the offensive end. He also chipped in with three steals and one block while logging 26 minutes of game action in a 106-93 win.
Carter has scored in double figures for the second time in his last five games. He is averaging 10.8 points, 4.2 assists and 4.0 rebounds over his last five games.
Carter would most likely only see a one-game suspension, if any, from the league, the Dallas Morning News reports.
The 36-year-old is averaging 9.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and a 3-pointer per game thus far after his first five contests this season.
Adams elbowed Carter in the face during a battle for a rebound, and Carter retaliated with what the referees determined was a flagrant elbow of his own. Adams received a technical foul, while Carter was ejected for the retaliation. He ended the game with no points on 0 for 4 shooting in 14 minutes.
Carter missed just one game last season and averaged 13.4 points, 2.0 3-pointers, 4.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game.

Joy Elizabeth Williams is an American singer-songwriter.[1] The winner of four Grammy awards, Williams has released four solo albums and four EPs since the release of her self-titled debut in 2001. She performed with John Paul White as The Civil Wars from 2009 until 2012, when the duo announced they were taking an indefinite hiatus.[1][2][3] They announced on their website in 2014 that the hiatus was permanent.[4]
Williams was raised in a Christian home in Santa Cruz, California, where her parents worked in ministry. She attended Valley Christian High School in San Jose and graduated as the class valedictorian in 2001.[5]
In addition to singing in church, Williams began writing faith-based pop songs while living in Santa Cruz. At 17, she was signed by Reunion Records, a subsidiary of Sony/BMG based in Brentwood, Tennessee. Williams moved to Nashville in 2001, in part to be closer to the label's headquarters.[6]
Williams achieved significant success between 2001 and 2005. She was nominated for 11 Dove Awards, and the three records she released on Reunion cumulatively sold more than 250,000 albums.[1] In 2005 she left the label, noting that her perspective had changed considerably since she started recording for Reunion at 17. "My worldview shifted like tectonic plates from 17 to mid-twenties, and over time, I just started to feel less and less comfortable with the type of music I was making. I wanted to write things that moved me and not feel like I had any parameters telling me what to do or not to do," she said in a 2014 interview.[7]
After leaving Reunion, Williams spent time in Europe, and worked briefly at Paste Magazine and at a Nashville boutique. She resumed her career in music in 2006 after she signed a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell music, and in 2008 she and her husband/manager Nate Yetton founded Sensibility Music, intending it to serve as an outlet for Williams to release solo material. That same year, soon after she began to seek licensing opportunities for her music in film, television, and commercials, Oscar Mayer selected her song "It Doesn't Get Better Than This" for a 2008 marketing campaign.[8] Williams subsequently released three EPs through Sensibility Music. Her catalogue includes the songs "Charmed Life," "Speaking A Dead Language" and "Sunny Day," which were featured on the TV show Grey's Anatomy.[6][9]
In 2008, Williams attended a writing camp in Nashville, where she met John Paul White. They formed the folk rock duo The Civil Wars in 2009, and released their breakthrough album Barton Hollow independently through Sensibility Recordings in 2011. The album was widely praised by critics,[10] and went on to sell more than 650,000 copies in the US.[11] White and Williams, who won four Grammy Awards as The Civil Wars, announced a hiatus in November 2012, prior to the release of their 2013 self-titled album.[12]
In 2013, Williams collaborated with Chris Cornell on the song "Misery Chain" for the 12 Years A Slave soundtrack. They performed the song together on Late Night with David Letterman at the end of the year.[13] She also collaborated with Matt Berninger from The National on "Hush," the theme song for TURN, which airs on AMC.[14][15] Williams announced that she had begun work on a new solo album in April, 2014.[16]
It was announced on August 5, 2014, that the Civil Wars were officially breaking up.
Williams and Hayley Williams of Paramore collaborated on a new version of Paramore's "Hate to See Your Heart Break." The track was included on a deluxe version of the band's self-titled debut and was released November, 2014. [17]

Hill Country Chicken of COURSE!!!! ITS AWESOME!!! CHICKEN and HOME MADE PIES you can't beat that!!!!
Bobby is so hilarious, I've watched him for years and studied him, he has gone from a uptight man to a professional/laidback kinda guy who NOW can differentiate between having fun and competing. love all the throwdowns and his assistants are GREAT. love Meriam and Steph!
I have been watching Bobby for a few years now, and he seems to have a great sense of humor, which I think makes him seem very approachable. He is always well dressed and well spoken. I can see how he's come to build the empire that he has! As far as what he should eat for lunch, I think he looks great, so he should eat what he wants! (As long as he thinks it tastes good!)
And if Bobby is ever in Houston and wants a date, he can call me! I would love to hear some of his funny stories! Alternatively, he can cook for me anytime!
So how do promote your site if you don't leave blog comments? You promote it just like you would promote a band, a brick-and-mortar business, a new restaurant, a backyard lawn care service, and a lemonade stand. You tell people you know about it and ask them to tell people THEY know about it. You buy advertising. You go join a crowd and talk yourselves up.
