Further study details as provided by Incheon St.Mary's Hospital:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Comparing the complete removal rate of cold biopsy forceps versus cold snare biopsy for removing colon polyps [ Time Frame: up to 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]We will investigate the complete removal rate of colon polyps by using two different methods, cold biopsy forceps or cold snare biopsy. After removal of polyps by one of these two methods, the remnant lesion will be biopsied to study if there are any remnant tissues in order to find out the complete removal rate.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Bleeding rate after removal of colon polyps by using cold biopsy forceps or cold snare biopsy [ Time Frame: participants will be followed up for 1 month ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]We will investigate bleeding rate after removal of colon polyps by these two methods. Bleeding rate will be the number of patients who showed significant bleeding after the procedure divided by the total number of patients who will receive the procedure. Significant bleeding was determined to be ongoing bleeding for more than 30 seconds after the procedure

text: Obama Turns Campaign Into Nonprofit 501(c)(4) will fight for Obama policies like gun control and immigration By Kevin Spak, Newser Staff Posted Jan 18, 2013 8:10 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (43) (Newser) – Barack Obama is forging new ground in the ever-expanding world of political money groups, by transforming his 2012 campaign apparatus into a non-profit that will advocate for his positions on issues like gun control and immigration. As a 501(c)(4), "Organizing for Action" will be able to take in unlimited anonymous cash from anyone—though it doesn't intend to. Instead, it promises to disclose all its donors, and while it will allow corporate donors, it won't take money from lobbyists or PACs, the AP reports. Obama campaign manager Jim Messina will run the new group, which Politico sees as "an implicit rejection of DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz." It also doesn't bode well for Priorities USA, the pro-Obama super PAC that had disappointing results during the campaign. "This just dwarfs any part of the Democratic coalition," one strategist tells the LA Times. "This is the biggest leg of the stool. There are really significant implications in terms of the permanent power center within the party." Supporters hold an President Barack Obama banner at Centre College, site of the Vice Presidential debate, Oct. 11, 2012, in Danville, Ky.

Longview voters might toughen candidate requirements
Longview — Longview voters will decide May 11 whether to charge a filing fee to run for office and if residency requirements will be toughened.
Propositions 2 and 3 on the city of Longview ballot, if approved, would require a $100 filing fee or a petition with 25 signatures to file for office and would increase residency requirements for candidates from six months to a year.
Both propositions came out of the City Council, not a petition from Longview residents. At the time the requirements were suggested, Mayor Jay Dean said requiring such conditions would encourage only serious candidates to file for office.

Judith Green's Background
I am a medical sociologist, with degrees in anthropology and medical sociology. Before joining LSHTM in 1996, I held posts at South Bank University, the Department of General Practice and Primary Care at UMDS (Guy's), where I completed a PhD on the sociology of accidents, and the Department of General Practice at King's College School of Medicine. I currently edit Critical Public Health, an international peer-reviewed journal which publishes a broad range of critical research and commentary on and for public health.
Judith Green's Affiliation
Judith Green's Teaching
My main teaching responsibility is to develop capacity in qualitative approaches to health research for students at LSHTM, research colleagues and collaborators. I contribute to several in-house modules (inlcuding Principles of Social Research, Qualitative Methodologies and Sociology of Health), co-edited (with John Browne) the DBL text-book Principles of Social Research and run training workshops in qualitative methodologies. I co-author, with Nicki Thorogood, Qualitative Methods for Health Research (Sage, 2014), a textbook primarily for health professionals using qualitative methods.
Judith Green's Research
I have broad research interests in the sociology of health and illness and in methodology. I have published widely on risk, professions, health services organisation and, more recently, on the sociology of mobility. I am a member of the Kriticos network of social scientists at LSHTM.
On methodology, my recent work has been orientated to developing robust ways of evaluating the social and public health impacts of interventions which maximise validity through the appropriate use of social research methods. This includes using sociological work on mobilities to shed light on public health issues arising from transport policies and choices, as part of the mult-disciplinary transport and health group. The 'On the Buses' project evaluated the impact of free bus travel for young people on public health.
Current research includes contributions to studies on inequalities in road injury, home energy efficiency installations, reduced street lighting, transport policies, decision making in local authorities, older people and welfare benefits, and the sociology of active transport modes.
Research degree students working with me are researching a range of topics in the sociology of health, including: decisions to take statins (Louisa Polak), masculinities in Trinidad (Oscar Ocho), discourses of reconfiguration (Lorelei Jones), social networks in Nairobi informal settlements (Julie Evans), interdiscipinary science-in-action in an air pollution project (Emma Garnett), and the role of exposure in explaining inequalities in road injury risk (Rebecca Steinbach).

Okay maybe the Olympics aren't that bad after all. I mean this felt more like the beginning of a Bang Brothers flick than ice dancing. Seriously stretch you freaky little Chinese bitch! Stretch!

The DAA Satellite Center Laiza
One of DAA's major projects of is our program of photography training and support in Kachin State, Northern Burma. Over the last four years more than 200 students have passed through photography workshops in Laiza, home of the Kachin Independence Organization (KIO), encouraging and enabling them to document the realities of life in the region. Despite an era of apparent reform initiated by the new civilian government in Burma, Kachin State has seen a marked increase in violence, community displacement and human rights abuses associated with a reignited civil conflict between the Kachin Independence Army (KIA) and the Burmese military. The images produced by these young Kachin give essential documentation of life in this isolated and under-reported area and have been used by organizations including ALTSEAN, Democratic Voice of Burma (DVB) and the US Campaign for Burma (USCB) both as independent, first hand documentation of the ongoing situation and as tools for international advocacy for greater pressure on the Burmese government to end attacks against the Kachin people.
It will provide resources and training to all walks of life in Laiza. From Front line commanders wanting to document the ongoing war, to NGOs wanting to document human rights abuses and environmental stories. From Internally Displaced Persons wanting to share the story of their life in the camps to University graduates aspiring to be full time photojournalists and filmmakers. From the more than 200 students who have taken part in these free workshops nine have so far gone on to complete the entire course of basic, intermediate and advanced photography training, with six of these now also trained as teachers of the curriculum themselves. The first classes taught by graduates of the program have begun to take place and in this way the Kachin youth have been given the capability to continue this capacity building independently. DAA, supported by Internews, now provides micro-grants to allow students to complete extended documentary projects in the region and is currently looking for funding to make the space used for these workshops a permanent documentary arts center staffed and instructed by graduates of the program. See some of the DAA's advanced students' work - Hkun Li | Zau Htoi | Jatongno. This center's grant has expired and needs support to continue its programming. |
The first exhibition which took place at this center was DAA's September 2013 exhibition about Mongolia, Nomads No More by Taylor Weidman, and had a great success among the Kachin civil society. |

Article by Democratic Voice of Burma on the DAA Laiza Center.
"As headquarters of the Kachin Independence Organisation (KIO), the Sino-Burmese border town of Laiza has seen its share of conflict in recent years. The town has practically been under siege by Burmese government forces since 2011; and while Kachin refugees flooded in, humanitarian aid convoys were denied access. As recently as January, townsfolk were forced to run for cover as mortar shells rained down while fighter jets circled the skies.
It seems as unlikely a venue as you could imagine for an international arts studio to open. But that is exactly what happened on Tuesday just a couple of days ahead of peace talks between the KIO and the Burmese government in Kachin state capital Myitkyina.
Originally based in Chiang Mai, Documentary Arts Asia is a non-governmental organisation that supports and features the work of documentary-makers and artists in Asia. The new centre, located in the Laiza public library, will provide resources for those wishing to exhibit documentary art in Laiza – from front-line commanders recording the sorrow of war to NGOs striving to publicise human rights abuses, environmental devastation or human interest stories
"I hope this centre and its various programs will develop many Kachin who are very capable of and hungry to tell the amazing stories they see around them all the time with still and moving images", said founder Ryan Libre.
Laiza's new Documentary Arts Asia centre was inaugurated with a speech by Gen. Gam Shawng, the chief of staff of the Kachin Independence Army, who roused his audience by saying that "nowadays, media is more powerful than guns".
This centre is dedicated to Naw Ming, a Kachin film director and journalist who was shot and paralyzed while covering the conflict. The first exhibition at the centre will be "Nomads no more"by Taylor Weidman.

Playing HTTT, westernised tech and then military with Mutapa to the Latin group.
I get Latin infantry, and can even train Latin cannons. But still no cavalry at all. In the military box where I choose what type of infantry I want, the cavalry bit is greyed out, it says I can't field cavalry yet.
The option for cannon is there though, and I can change the type of cannon and train them as normal in my core African provinces.
Is this a bug?

Teens are free to trot down to the local abortion clinic without parental notification, let alone parental permission, but if SB 291 is passed into law, they'll have to get a note from mommy before patronizing a tanning salon.
This ridiculous bill passed the Senate this week with two Republican votes. One was term-limited Dean Rhoads; the other, naturally, was liberal nanny-state Republican Sen. Joe Hardy.
How many signatures does it take to launch a recall again?
OK, one more RINO Joe item.
There's a bill sponsored by Joe Hardy that would allow a candidate who loses a party primary – let's just say, for argument's sake, a liberal Republican – to then file and run on the general election ballot as a write-in candidate. I call it the "Lisa Murkowski Bill."
Well, RINO Joe's bill came up for a vote on Tuesday night and went down in flames. In fact, RINO Joe was the only senator to vote for the bill. It was killed, 20-Joe.
On Easter Sunday, Carrie Herbertson, Nevada State Liaison for the National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action, sent the following email to members of Nevada's Assembly opposing a bill introduced by Assembly Speaker John Oceguera which, in essense, plagiarized four individual gun bills sponsored by other legislators and, as amended, increases the fee gun owners must pay for CCW permits. Here's Ms. Herbertson's email:
Subject: AB 282 Oppose on Third Read
Dear Assemblymembers:
On behalf of the Nevada members of the National Rifle Association, I would like to inform you that when Assembly Bill 282 comes up on Third Reading (scheduled on Monday, April 25th), the National Rifle Association is going to be formally adopting an OPPOSE position to this bill.
Despite the many hours of work that have gone into the issues contained in this bill, not excluding Speaker Oceguera's, your colleagues Assemblyman Bobzien (AB 143), Assemblyman Pat Hickey (AB 205) and Assemblyman Goedhart (AB 185), the amendment (No. 359) adopted on Second Reading on April 22nd, which reads "Section 4 of this bill revises the fee for the renewal of a permit from $25 to the amount necessary to obtain the reports required as part of the investigation by the sheriff" would most assuredly result in a fee increase, and that is not something we can support. CCW permit holders seeking to renew their permits could be excluded from doing so should the fees go beyond what they can afford. What would prohibit an issuing agency from charging an outlandish fee under the auspices of "that which is necessary"? Should that occur (and we have no reason to believe it wouldn't), thousands of law-abiding Nevadans would be excluded from exercising their right to self-defend because they just could not afford to do so – and that would be discriminatory at the very least.
In fact, when a fee increase on concealed carry weapons (CCW) permit applications was added to a 2007 measure (AB 21) which was very similar in nature to the language in AB 282, the opposition was tremendous and then Governor Jim Gibbons was adamant that he would veto any measure that contained a fee increase. As a result, a good policy measure was scuttled with the help of the law enforcement community.
While there is no specified fee increase in the above amending language, please make no mistake about it, that is what would ensue, as that members of the law enforcement community have been vocally and openly coveting additional revenue for years.
Perhaps a more reasoned approach would be to determine the actual administrative costs of conducting a background investigation PRIOR to giving the issuing agencies carte blanche to charge what they will.
Should this language remain and gain your support to pass it out of the Assembly, it will be considered an anti-gun vote despite the attributes contained in this bill.
For this reason, I ask that you either remove the afore-mentioned language or you vote no on AB 282.
Carrie Herbertson
State Liaison
National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action
Well, this got Johnny O's dander up. On Tuesday he fired back the following email response to Ms. Herbertson, essentially telling the gun rights lobbyist that she's an irresponsible dumbass who doesn't know what the hell she's talking about:
Subject: RE: AB 282 Oppose on Third Read
Ms. Herberstson,
I am a strong supporter of gun-owner rights, have been endorsed by the National Rifle Association (NRA) for over a decade, and, as you know, I myself am a Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW) permit holder. I have sponsored and supported pro-gun legislation throughout my career at the Nevada Assembly, and am sponsoring AB282 to further the interest of Nevada's gun owners and to strengthen Nevadans' 2nd Amendment rights.
AB282 would permit categorical CCW permit qualification for semiautomatic firearms, provide an exemption from the Brady check for each firearm purchase where a purchaser holds a valid CCW permit, allow for carrying of firearms in state parks consistent with State law, and ensure that certain information about CCW permit holders remains confidential. It is astounding to me that the NRA would oppose a bill that would provide significant reform in favor of gun owners.
You have expressed opposition to the language addressing permit renewal fees, but that concern is unwarranted. Your email to NRA members incorrectly claimed that AB282 would leave the cost of permit renewal up to the discretion of the issuing authority. That is not the case. AB282 limits the permit renewal fee to the actual cost of obtaining the background check report.
Nevadans may currently renew CCW permits for a $25 fee by completing applications and providing fingerprints, but a background check is not required. As stated on the record, the federal government does not accept fingerprints-only for CCW permit renewal, and only requiring fingerprints for permit renewal would jeopardize Nevada's reciprocity with other states. Currently, due to federal requirements, CCW permit holders are required to undergo a Brady background check and pay an additional $25 fee every time a new firearm is purchased.
Under AB282, if Nevada's CCW permit holders obtain a background check report from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) upon permit renewal, they would no longer be subject to the Brady background check and $25 fee for each firearm purchase. Instead, they would only pay for the cost of obtaining the background check report – currently at $51.25 or $40.25, depending on paper or electronic submission, plus the $25 Brady check, for a total of about $75 – once every 5 years, no matter how many guns are purchased. No more Brady check, no waiting, and no more $25 fee for each gun purchase. Just $75 for 5 years. In emails to the Nevada Assembly, you voiced concerns that you are unaware of the actual cost of NICS background checks. It is unclear to me why that information would not be known to a representative of the NRA.
You suggested setting the fee at a certain amount in statute, but your home state may be better suited to frequently revising its permit fees as costs increase or decrease. California, after all, has the "luxury" of long, annual legislative sessions. However, Nevada's legislative session occurs once every two years and lasts only 120 days – requiring the Legislature to prospectively address changes that may occur over a biennium. Setting the permit fee at the amount of the actual cost to obtain a background check report – and no more – allows Nevada to pass any savings on to permit holders if costs decrease, and prevents the State from incurring debt in the case of a cost increase (you may have heard that Nevada is currently addressing its budget problem, which I do not wish to exacerbate).
AB282 would not permit unlimited fee increases for permit renewal. The language used for renewal fees is the same language in existing statute for initial permit applications. It is language that is traditionally used in Nevada statute to limit fees to actual costs incurred, and is not discretionary. As I have heard of no complaints about exorbitant initial permit application fees, I find it unlikely that the statutory language that has worked without issue for many years would suddenly become a barrier to gun owners' rights. It is unfortunate that you now oppose AB282 due to a lack of understanding of a phrase used in the bill.
AB282 presents a tremendous opportunity for Nevada's citizens, but the confusion your emails caused among the NRA's members and members of the Legislature almost single-handedly destroyed what could be the most successful legislative session for Nevada's gun owners.
I am disappointed that you did not talk to me before sending inaccurate information to your membership and to Nevada's legislators. As you know, I am available to meet, or talk on the phone if you aren't able to come down from Sacramento. If you had just called, we could have discussed why the language is drafted as it is. I hope that in future, you will contact me or any other legislator in a similar situation.
John Oceguera
Speaker of the Assembly
Nevada Assembly
Can't wait to see Ms. Herbertson's response. I can't help but think that when it comes to this debate over Second Amendment legislation, Johnny O is bringing a knife to a gunfight.
The following letter-to-the-editor appeared in today's Record-Courier, in which I'm referred to as "the new counter-culture warrior." I'm honored!
Nevada Appeal columnist Chuck Muth took out an ad in the April 12 edition calling out Nevada State Assembly Speaker John Oceguera's plagiarism of other legislators' work. Sounds like an interesting news story. I wonder if any media types plan to cover it while it's still news.
The media used to take pride in speaking truth to power. But if a modern day journalist happens to be an ideological ally of the "power" in question, not so much. A while back the Appeal carried a karaoke column tying the Tucson shootings to prominent conservatives, but no outrage for the violence that came from the union thuggery and vandalism in Wisconsin.
A few days ago we were treated to a column justifying the high level of public sector pay. OK, but every dollar they get is first earned in the productive private sector. When are we going to get a column lauding the capitalist schlubs who pay that freight?
The Soviet Union had its useful idiots. At least some in the media appear to be performing that function for the Democrat party and the political left. In the case of Oceguera, he isn't just an Assemblyman; he's the Assembly Speaker. Nevada's voters deserve to know.
If you want to see real rage against the machine, pull up Muth's ad on his website and see what drawing attention to the unvarnished truth looks like. Chuck Muth, the new counterculture warrior, is doing the work the media walked away from.
Lynn Muzzy
Over in the Nevada state Senate on Tuesday, three Republicans joined every Democrat in approving new government regulation – complete with a new $200 licensing tax (fee)! – of, get this, "Music Therapists."
What the hell is a Music Therapist you ask?
Well, according to the American Music Therapy Association, music therapy "is the clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional who has completed an approved music therapy program."
Yeah, that sure cleared things up. Let's try this from another angle: What do music therapists do? Again from the AMTA:
"Music therapists assess emotional well-being, physical health, social functioning, communication abilities, and cognitive skills through musical responses; design music sessions for individuals and groups based on client needs using music improvisation, receptive music listening, song writing, lyric discussion, music and imagery, music performance, and learning through music; participate in interdisciplinary treatment planning, ongoing evaluation, and follow up."
In other words, it's a load of crap. But hey, if somebody thinks they can cure Alzheimer's by listening to Yanni music over and over and over again…who am I to argue? Live and let live, right? However, is this really something Nevada's government now needs to license and regulate? I don't think so.
Sidenote: And for all you Music Therapists right now sitting down to tap out an angry email telling me how I know nothing about music therapy and what wonderful things you do….forget it. By the time you read this I'll be blasting Led Zeppelin music into my ears through my iPod while working out on the treadmill. That's all the music therapy I need!
In any event, this is exactly why it is so hard to shrink government. Even in the worst stinking recession in our state's history, some well-intentioned, busy-body nanny-state legislators think the government just has to do more, when what's really called for these days is for the government to do LESS. MUCH less.
Oh, you wanna know who the Republicans were who voted with the Democrats to expand government and increase taxes (fees)? That would be Sens. Barbara Cegavske, Joe Hardy (naturally!), Ben Kieckhefer and Dean Rhoads.
BTW, whatever happened to that letter signed by all 10 Republican senators saying they backed Gov. Sandoval's budget and wouldn't be voting for any new taxes or fees? Or was there some fine print or weasel-wording in the letter that the average Nevada voter/taxpayer missed that, um, doesn't appear in the Taxpayer Protection Pledge?
And some still wonder why I'm so adamant about getting candidates to sign the Pledge and never take their word for it? And, um, yes….Sen. Cegavske did sign the Pledge. So as you can see, nothing is fool-proof.
The Nevada state Assembly voted on Tuesday to expand the regulatory arm of government by requiring that mopeds be registered with the DMV, imposing a new registration "fee" (tax) on their owners, as well as require moped drivers and riders to wear full government-approved motorcycle helmets.
Republicans who voted to raise taxes and expand the nanny-state were: Pete Goicoechea, Tom Grady, John Hambrick, Scott Hammond, Cresent Hardy, Randy Kirner, Pete Livermore, Mark Sherwood, Lynn Stewart and Melissa Woodbury.
Pathetic. And some people still wonder why I'm no longer a Republican?
If you truly want to understand the arrogance of legislative Democrats consider this little item from Assemblyman Kelvin Atkinson (D-Isle of Man).
Sen. Don Gustavson has introduced a bill to repeal Nevada's nanny-state mandatory motorcycle helmet law in every session he's been in at the state Assembly. This year he did so again, only as a member of the state Senate. And this year, his bill received a hearing and was passed out of Sen. Shirley Breeden's Transportation Committee even though Sen. Breeden herself opposes the bill.
Which has little Kelvin's tighty-whities in a bunch.
Atkinson, you see, opposes treating grown adults as, well, adults. As such, and as chairman of the Assembly Transportation Committee last session, he killed Gustavson's bill. And for the life of him, he can't understand why Sen. Breeden didn't kill the bill this year in her committee.
"How does a bill pass out of committee by one vote when the chair is opposed to it?" he asks with incredulity in a Las Vegas Sun story today. "I was a little alarmed by that."
Alarmed? ALARMED?? Kelvin Atkinson is "alarmed" that a committee chair allowed a vote on a bill that a majority of her committee favored? That "alarms" him? Seems to me such an arrogant attitude by Mr. Atkinson is what should be alarming.
One of the oldest tricks in the liberal book is to couch tax and fee hikes into something "for the children" – and some Republicans fall for it, hook, line and sinker every time. And so it was on Monday with Assembly passage of AB 192.
AB 192 could QUADRUPLE the fee for you to record "a document, instrument, paper, notice, deed, conveyance, map, chart, survey or any other writing other than an originally signed copy of a certificate of marriage."
And how did Democrats on the Ways & Means Committee sucker six Republicans into voting for it? By specifying that the additional revenue "be used to provide legal services for abused and neglected children," that's how.
Now here's the thing: *IF* "abused and neglected children" really need legal services (are we supposed to believe that abused and neglected children aren't being taken care of in the courts right now?), isn't that something that all of us, collectively, should pay for out of our general fund taxes? Why should legal services for abused and neglected children be funded from…recording fees? This is insane. This is nuts. This is dumb and dumber rolled together.
And yet…
Six Republicans in the Assembly fell for it and voted for AB 192. They are: Tom Grady, Scott Hammond, Cresent Hardy, Pat Hickey, Lynn Stewart and Melissa Woodbury.
Good grief.
It was around this time last year that Sharron Angle's U.S. Senate campaign – thanks in part to the out-of-state Tea Party Express teaming up with Harry Reid's supporters to boost her candidacy – began to take off. And by the time early voting began, it was pretty clear that Angle was definitely in a position to win the GOP primary.
As such, the Sue Lowden campaign prepared a brutally honest mailer to be dropped on the final weekend before Election Day which asked in the first sentence, "Can Sharron Angle beat Harry Reid in November."
The letter then laid out a solid, historical argument for why Angle, among the other top candidates, couldn't, ending with this appeal directly from Lowden:
"So if you can't vote for me – though I certainly hope you will and I'm asking for your vote – at least vote for someone who can beat Harry in November. Because after all, that's what this election is all about."
As we all regretfully know now, Lowden's assessment was, in the immortal words of Mona Lisa Vito in My Cousin Vinny, dead-on balls accurate. Now for the rest of the story….
That letter never went out.
It was approved… printed… inserted in envelopes…. addressed…. stamped… and sitting on the post office loading dock… when Sue pulled it.
At the last minute Lowden opted to do what was in the best interest of the GOP, not necessarily what was in her own personal best interest. Ever the "good party soldier," Lowden knew the letter, should Angle prevail, would be used very effectively against the party's nominee in November.
So she yanked it.
Yes, the letter was a "Hail Mary." And yes, judging from the results of the primary election, it certainly wouldn't have changed the overall result. But yes, the same arguments used in the letter back then still apply today in light of Angle's latest political quest to win…something.
Just as Sharron Angle was probably the only candidate who could have lost to Harry Reid last year, many Republicans have come to the conclusion that Angle is now the only Republican who could possibly lose the Second Congressional District seat to the Democrats.
But will enough of them wake up in time? Time will tell. But remember, Republicans never blow an opportunity to blow an opportunity.
Over the weekend there has been some speculation that it might be in the GOP's best interest if Gov. Brian Sandoval appoints a "placeholder" to fill the vacancy created by Sen. John Ensign's resignation rather than appoint the obvious choice, Rep. Dean Heller. The argument is that it would cost the state too much money to hold a special election and that a wide-open primary could allow the Democrats to win the seat.
This is absurd.
A House seat isn't worth anywhere near a Senate seat. Appointing Heller (ACU Lifetime Rating: 89) makes it more likely that Heller will hold the seat in 2012 against Democrat candidate Rep. Shelley Berkley (ACU Lifetime Rating: 11), who otherwise holds a slight advantage in picking up the seat.
Weigh that against the worst-case scenario of the GOP losing CD2 in the special election in the fall. Should that happen, it'll have zero impact on the GOP's control of the House in Congress. And the Democrat winner would have to turn right around and hold the seat in this Republican district a year later….an uphill climb at best.
Who in their right mind would risk our U.S. Senate seat going to a hard-core liberal in a Democrat majority state rather than risk a lowly House seat going to a relative moderate northern Democrat in a Republican seat that the GOP could win back with relative ease?
The same numbskulls who cost us the chance to take out Harry Reid last year, that's who.
According to the out-of-state political svengalis at Tea Party Express, Gov. Sandoval should appoint ex-Gov. Bob List or ex-Treasurer Bob Seale to hold the U.S. Senate seat until Shelley Berkley possibly wins it outright in 2012. Yeah, brilliant strategery fellas!
Tea Party Express stuck us with Sharron Angle last year – the only candidate who could have possibly lost to Harry Reid, and Harry Reid knew it. Which makes TPX nothing more than Harry Reid's "useful idiot." And now we're supposed to take their advice and NOT appoint Dean Heller to John Ensign's Senate seat? I don't think so.
Hey, TPX…don't call us; we'll call you.
RINO, of course, stands for "Republican in Name Only." And while the tea party movement has helped place them on the endangered species list, there are still a few still running around posing a serious danger to limited government, individual liberty and fiscal conservatism. In fact, one was spotted in Carson City just last week.
There were two bills in the state Senate – one to ban Cheetos, Twinkies and cupcakes from public schools, and another to force auto repair shops to check YOUR tire pressure under penalty of law – in which one, and only one liberal Republican voted with the Democrats: Sen. Joe Hardy.
Folks in "Jacobin Joe's" Boulder City/Mesquite district should begin preparing for two things: (1) For Sen. Hardy to vote with the Democrats, despite his assurance to the governor otherwise, on raising taxes, and (2) To form a recall committee for when he does.

All right, can I give some feedback then? Good value omnibuses are awesome. I'd rather pay $20 for a nice two volume omnibus than $10 for a typical English manga release. If that's the best way to release a more niche series, you won't hear me complain! | |||

1. "Say Hello to Black jack" or Nurse Aoi" . I'd love to see a new medical manga get published. I love Black Jack & monster.
2. Moteki 3. Adamas 3. Shima Shima by sayaka yamazaki I'd also like to see more titles about grown up characters with jobs. I'm growing out of the fantasy/sci-fi stuff with teenage characters. |

I agree as long as the omnibuses don't get too big. I don't like the Kenshin omnibuses from Viz or Dark Horse's CCS ones. Those are too big and the spines break as soon as you open them. Plus they're just too unwieldy. Viz's Cross Game or Vertical's GTO: The Early Years are good omnibuses. But I do like omnibuses in general as they tend to be more efficient. I would be interested in seeing Kodansha do some omnibus releases, especially as this seems good for longer series. |

Im quite fond of 2 volume omnibus editions myself and if it makes stuff easier to publish then better still.
The only multi volume book i have which im not too fond of was the 3 in 1 naruto release and that was only because the thing was printed on tracing paper. |

I am also quite a fan of 2 in 1 omnibuses myself. Yen Press have done a really nice job with their release of "The Betrayal Knows My Name" as there's lots of colour pages and all the bonus content is still included. I think 3 in 1 is starting to get a bit too much though. The spines start to bend then I think. | |||

My favourites are the X/1999 and NGE 3-in-1s, because the combine the best of all omnibus worlds. They're nice and big, but not so heavy they're unwieldly. The paper is white and thin, but not thin enough to look through. Plenty of colour pages too, but far from expensive. They're pretty much perfect. | |||

Princess Jellyfish!!! That would be a dream come true!!! I can relate to the characters so well it's not even funny, because thats my friends and I in a nutshell! (Minus the fact that most of them are boys, and the fact that about half of them are dating another member of our group. But that aside, it would be seriously amazing to see that get an American release.
Minami-ke would be nice, (when I mean nice, I mean, yeah sure, its not the best but its not the worst, its just Ok, in my book but I know it could get backed up by the fan base in the states. But what I seriously wanna see is GTO get republished in the states from the original company and NOT from Tokyo Pop, if its anything like the Tokyo Pop Hetalia Axis Powers then it probably didn't get the treatment like it deserved and got cheap paper that is stuck so close together in the center that you almost have to tear it apart to read the dialoge in the center. (We also know they're dumb enough to only put their manga in only one book store, and its the same book store that went out of business a while back.) So yeah, for the sake of The Great Teacher Onizuka, ya'll should re-release it, (also for the fans like me who didn't get into manga until after they stopped selling it.) Its only five books above your range, but it really wouldn't make a difference would it? Overall, I know ya'll aren't interested in bringing back older mangas but I wanna see Gto, and if you still refuse, then I'll be happy with another favorite, Princess Jelly Fish.

I'd be the happiest pig in the world if Toru Fujisawa's recent GT-R: Great Transporter Ryuji and Ino-Head Gargoyle were licensed. Both are new spin-offs of GTO, so you'd think they'd be the type of series that the western market would be interested in... | |||

I'm mostly going to be parroting a lot of what other people already said but I may as well add another voice to the crowd.
For starters, Princess Jellyfish of course. I saw a couple people mention Again!! already. I've been reading it online as fan releases have come out and it seems to be rather popular. It's a shounen series currently at 7 volumes. I haven't seen anyone mention Shounen Note. It's also shounen, currently at 4 volumes, and by the maker of Nabari no Ou. The story isn't exactly main stream which is the ultimate problem. It's about a boy with a soprano voice singing in his school choir and having to deal with vocal change brought on by puberty. The art is gorgeous and I'd recommend checking it out for that alone. I'd also like to see a release of Saint Onii-san and Cesare though I can tell why publishers here may not take to those series so I won't hold it against you. I have the Tokyopop release of Planetes in all of its yellowy beat-up glory, and I would double-dip in an instant for a solid 2 volume omnibus rerelease with all the color pages. Or just a plain rerelease even, I won't be picky when it comes to a favorite series of mine. Also Nodame. I think that would be a perfect title if Kodansha ever wanted to experiment with print on demand. Del Rey originally listed the last volumes to come out as two 3-in-1 omnibus editions so maybe go for that? I know it won't happen but I have to say something at least. Finally, The World God Only Knows, Oyasumi Punpun, and Homunculus. They're not Kodansha but throwin them out there just in case. And kinda off topic, but does anyone know why The World God Only Knows hasn't been licensed yet? It's a popular shounen series with an established English speaking fanbase and it already had an anime release here. Is it just the gal-game aspect that throws publishers off or is there more to it?[/b] |

Well, those are Shueisha/Shogakukan properties which are ultimately up to VIZ (with very few exceptions) since they're owned by them. TWGOK is a Weekly Shounen Sunday series from Shogakukan, and while VIZ does have the Shonen Sunday imprint, it doesn't really see much new blood (the last 3 series announced for the imprint were back in 2009). Suffice to say, it's been a while since they've added new series to the line. I'm sure it doesn't help that the manga is pretty long-running (currently 20 volumes and still-ongoing). Anime tie-in or not, it's a lot of niche humor. Nevertheless, I'd love to see it licensed and have kind of been at odds how it wasn't licensed before and seeing its window of opportunity fade away. |

Subject: its ok not to be strong i lost my dad when i was 14 im 18 now and think that through hard times like you have experienced its ok not to be strong once in a while. if you need to cry then cry,dont feel like you need to put on a brave face every day of your life. try tlking to your brother about things if he knows how you feel he will feel more open to tlking to you about how he feels. i have an older brother hes 5yr older and he never tlks about the loss of our dad i think he feels like he needs to be the father figur for me, but i personally think that him being like that makes it harder for me to tlk to him about it , i dont feel like i can, now i dont want you to think that your doing this all wrong cos im not saying that. everyone is different i dont know you and i dont know your brother so i dont know what would be best for you, only you will know that. i just feel that from my experience is that if my brther had been more open with me i would have been with him. remember to laugh it always helps. cry if you need to. scream if you need to. shout if you need to. and sit by your self if you need to. nothing that you do will be wrong, everyone copes in different ways. its ok. ly xxx

Posted by REv. JOhn Fullard on January 2, 2003, 10:33 am, in reply to "TIME FOR Renewal..................." Thanks for your email.................
From my cousin Betty....
Subj: Priceless Gifts
Date: 1/2/2003 6:05:57 AM Pacific Standard Time
From: ..............
1. The Gift of Listening . . . . . . Try giving this to someone in need. You must really listen. No interrupting, no daydreaming, no planning your responses. Just listen. Your reaction to someone in trouble determines GOD's reaction to you the next time you get in trouble and may need someone to listen!
2. The Gift of Affection . . . . . . . Be generous with your hugs, kisses and gentle squeezes of the hand. Let these tiny actions demonstrate the love inside of you.
3. The Gift of a Note . . . . . It can be as simple as "I Love You" or as creative as a sonnet. Put your notes where they will surprise your loved ones. A co-worker or supervisor/boss that is truly appreciated for the little things. It makes a difference!
4. The Gift of Laughter . . . . . Just cut out a cartoon, save a clever article, remember a corny joke; executed at the right time can turn a frown upside down.
5. The Gift of Compliment . . . . . A simple "you look good in blue or green, etc; I like the way your hair looks today; good supper tonight" can be of the greatest value in giving something that cost you little or nothing. Someone is always observing you who is capable of greatly Blessing you.
6. The Gift of Favor . . . . Help with the dishes, run an errand, take over something at work to give someone a break for a change, go the extra mile. Any little random act of kindness will not be forgotten for every action is a seed sown. Currents of favor begin to flow the moment you solve a problem for someone else.
7. The Gift of Leaving Alone . . . . . There are times in our lives when we want nothing better than to be left alone for moment for whatever the reason. Often we assume that we've done something wrong when in essence it's nothing we've done; all he/she may need is a little time alone to put things in proper perspective, release the days stresses, right a wrong -- whatever, give the gift. What you make happen for others, GOD will make happen for you!
8. The Gift of a Smile . . . . . It takes more muscles to frown than to smile. The smallest of smiles can lift the heaviness of a burden. There is always someone worse off than you. Regardless of the circumstances wear a smile with a cheerful disposition. It's medicine for the soul.
9. The Gift of Forgiveness . . . . . . Forgiveness is setting a prisoner free and discovering that the real prisoner is yourself. Carrying around grudges is like a sack of potatoes that's been sitting for weeks, months -- rotting away. Let it go; it has no worth. Injustice is only as powerful as your memory of it!
10. The Gift of Prayer . . . . Pray for your loved ones, your co-workers, your church family and friends. Pray for your enemies, pray for this country and it's leaders and when possible, let them know you're praying for them. We all need prayer. It is one of the greatest gift that cost us nothing but a little time.
What a great way to start the New Year giving gifts that money cannot buy.
"I have showed you all things, how that so laboring ye ought to
support the week, and to remember the words of the
LORD, JESUS, how he said,
It is more Blessed to Give than receive.
(Acts 20:35)

If you haven't already, I recommend you read Part I of this story before reading this.
I left off the story "somewhere on a path along the beach [in New Zealand]… something starting going really smoothly." I was trying to describe the feeling when something you've done over and over starts to feel just right, as if you've been meant to do it all along. One of my favorite professors at Warren Wilson College taught us about "Flow," a theory developed by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (also, one of my favorite names to try to pronounce). Flow is described by Csikszentmihalyi as:
Being completely involved in an activity for its own sake. The ego falls away. Time flies. Every action, movement, and thought follows inevitably from the previous one, like playing jazz. Your whole being is involved, and you're using your skills to the utmost.
Others might call this being in "the zone," or finding your groove. All I know is that it felt right, and when I found myself entering this state of being while running, I started wanting more! I would plan routes that went up big hills just for the hell of it. I had an easier time waking up and heading out before sunrise (sometimes with a headlamp) to start my day with a burst of energy. As a brand ambassador, I was recently asked to write a bio for the SKORA Running website and while thinking about what running means to me, I came up with this:
For me, running is a journey. Each time my foot leaves the ground, propelling me forward, I learn something new about my body. My ankle bends, my calf muscle flexes, my knee springs into action and so it goes, all the way up to my mind paying attention to the rhythm of my breathing. This is my body communicating with itself to keep me running, whether it is 2 miles or 13.1. I began to enjoy running when I began to listen to my body and pay attention to these messages.
This is it. I am a runner. If you read my last post, you will have some understanding of how surprising it is, still, to see myself write those words. Back in New Zealand, I was training for my second half-marathon, and was actually starting to enjoy the process. We planned the race around our departure from New Zealand and worked out perfectly to be a week after we left our jobs. My parents had arrived to visit and Kaitlin and I embarked on a three week road trip around the South Island with them. Our week leading up to the race was a little bit unusual, as we were on the road visiting places like Cape Foulwind Seal Colony, Punakaiki (Pancake Rocks), and Fox Glacier. We managed to get some short runs in, while also staying active by hiking and walking everyday.
We arrived in Wanaka a couple days before the race and spent some time walking around the small town, checking out local shops and restaurants (and beer, of course). The day before the race, Kaitlin and I drove the course to check it out. Normally, I would not recommend this because it can be intimidating to realize how long it can take to drive 13.1 miles, knowing that you will be doing all that on foot. This was no exception, however, since it was a one way course (starting 13.1 miles from Wanaka and running back into town), we would have to make that drive the morning of the race and it was nice to get the shock of the distance out of the way the day before!
Race day came and we were at the starting line before sunrise. Although it was a chilly start, we warmed up quickly as we started moving and watched the sunrise over the nearby mountains. My parents acted as our race support team and stopped every so often the first few miles to take pictures and collect our long-sleeve layers as we warmed up (thanks, mom and dad!). They then headed back into town to grab breakfast before meeting us at the finish line to take more pictures and cheer us on. I had set a goal of finishing in just under two hours, meaning I would be running at a pace of just over 9 minutes per mile. As it turns out, I arrived at the finish line 1 hour, 51 minutes, and 37 seconds after I started. I actually beat my parents to the finish line (although they took a roundabout route). As I crossed, they were just walking over from the car and heard my name called out. This was the moment I knew that I would never turn back from running.
Fast forward 11 months and here we are, living and training in Portland, Oregon. I am currently training for a 15k Shamrock Run (remember what we did last year on St. Patrick's day?), the Rock 'n Roll Portland Half-Marathon on Kaitlin's birthday (May 19th), and the Tough Mudder near Portland in June. I have organized a weekly running club through work at the Icebreaker TouchLab store in Portland's Pearl District. If you are in Portland on a Wednesday evening, we leave the store at 6pm for a casual run just under 4 miles. I would never have expected for running to becoming such a part of my life.
I'll continue to write about my experience as a runner, including my recently achieved long distance. Next I'll write about how the food I fuel my body with relates to my approach to running. I will include a couple recipes for homemade, on-the-go energy snacks.

Brushless permanent magnet motor or ... - Google Patents. The present invention relates to permanent magnet electric machines of the radial air gap type.
More particularly, the present invention relates to permanent magnet electric machines of the radial air gap type in which the axial alignment of the rotor and stator can be varied to control speed and applied torque. Permanent magnet electric machines are known to be efficient producers/users of rotational power. Brushless permanent magnet machines eliminate the commutator and brushes that are commonly used with an electric controller that switches current to conductors in more conventional electric machines. The brushless electric controllers used in permanent magnet electric machines allow the conductor coils to be located in stationary motor stators, which react to movement of rotors containing permanent magnets. Brushless permanent electrical machines are known for their durability, controllability, and absence of electrical sparking. TIGA 可変界磁モーター variable field magnet motor Solar Car.
Variable field magnet apparatus - Google Patents. This invention relates in general to the field of magnetic devices, and more particularly, to an apparatus and method for producing with permanent magnets a varying magnetic field, such as for example, a magnetic field as used in semiconductor processing.
The need for producing variable magnetic fields arises in a number of industries and fields of endeavor, especially in the manufacturing sectors. One example can be found in the semiconductor processing industry. Sputtering, alternatively called physical vapor deposition (PVD), is a widely used method of depositing layers of metals and related materials in the fabrication of semiconductor integrated circuits. A conventional PVD reactor includes a vacuum chamber sealed to a PVD target composed of the material, usually a metal, to be sputter deposited on a wafer held on a wafer support, or pedestal. Physicist Creates Most Magnetic Material on Earth, Might Overturn Laws of Physics.
A more powerful magnetic material may have emerged to topple previous record-holder iron cobalt, until now the most magnetic material on Earth.
The new iron and nitrogen compound might also force physicists to revise their understanding of magnetism, according to the Minnesota Daily. The iron and nitrogen compound proved 18 percent more magnetic than iron cobalt in tests done by Jianping Wang, a physicist at the University of Minnesota. There also appears to be a "new physics" at work in the substance, but physicists at other labs must replicate the experiment and verify the work. Wang reportedly found localized electrons in his iron and nitrogen compound, which have never shown up before in magnetic materials. Free Energy Electromagnetic Generator on Yahoo! Video. Free Energy Generator: The Mini Romag Magnetic Motor. About the Mini Romag A free energy researcher named Jean-Louis Naudin, claims to have built a free energy device he called "Mini Romag," which he claims to be working uninterruptedly.
Magnetism has always been a kind of "Pandora's box" for energy. It is known that magnetic fields (and fields, generally) can't be used for energy generation, but still, magnets have stirred the curiosity of out-of-the-box thinkers. Fig.1.

WikiAnswers - How can you increase the strength of a electromagn. What can increase the magnetism in an elctromagnet? - Yahoo! Ans. There are several factors that determine the strength of an electromagnet. Increase the current through the wire and the electromagnetic force increases. Increase the number of turns of wire and the electromagnetic force increases. Increase the permeability of the electromagnetic core and the electromagnetic force increases.
Note that changing the permeability is done by changing the material used for the electromagnet core. Bitter electromagnet. Advantages[edit] Bitter electromagnets are used where extremely strong fields are required. The iron cores used in conventional electromagnets saturate and cease to provide any advantage at fields above a few teslas, so iron core electromagnets are limited to fields of about 2 teslas. Superconducting electromagnets can produce stronger magnetic fields but are limited to fields of 10 to 20 teslas, due to flux creep, though theoretical limits are higher. For stronger fields resistive solenoid electromagnets of the Bitter design are used. Their disadvantage is that they require very high drive currents, and dissipate large quantities of heat. Solenoid. An illustration of a solenoid A solenoid (from the French solénoïde, derived in turn from the Greek solen "pipe, channel" + combining form of Greek eidos "form, shape"[1]) is a coil wound into a tightly packed helix.

Just in time for spring, Designers Guild has introduced a new collection called Kimono Blossom. A statement collection of printed designs on fine linens and cottons. Original calligraphy and watercolour artwork has been meticulously reproduced, along with some more graphic and floral designs. The collection is a mix of soft feminine tones with bold colours that are my fave!
It is all about being bold, bright, and adventurous in our fabric choices.
