Vinny Guadagnino: Lil Wayne Using My Bathroom Was 'Honorary Moment'
Former Jersey Shore star Vinny Guadagnino has returned to the small screen, debuting his interviewing skills on MTV's The Show with Vinny, where he opens up his Staten Island, NY, home to chat with celebrities.
"I never even had a guest over to my house growing up because I was so embarrassed of my small bathroom and house," he joked on On Air with Ryan Seacrest on Wednesday. "And now, I have these big celebrities and camera crews and reporters coming through my house. It's crazy."
The reality star explained that to have the show in his family home, it required a bit of a remodel, including turning his sister's room into a green room. So how did she feel about it?
"She didn't have a choice in that. The production company came in and they were like, 'This is going to be the green room.' [They] turned my mom's room into a dining room."
And all the changes to the home clearly paid off … Vinny's guests include everyone from Lil Wayne to Ke$ha.
What Your High School Photo Says About Your Future Love Life
Vinny shared one of his favorite moments was when the rapper used his bathroom. "I mean, come on. Wouldn't you? That was an honorary moment for me … he's my favorite rapper. I was honored to have him pee in my bowl."
The talk show host also added that his guests don't just stay inside the house. "Sometimes we don't do it in the house, we go around town and do things, [like] we had Mark Wahlberg and we went to a gym with him, [but others like] Ke$ha came over to the house."
'Married to Jonas' Preview: Danielle Wants a Career
Another houseguest was LMFAO's Redfoo. "Redfoo was kind of on a diet," said Vinny. "He's an insane tennis player and was all into his fitness, so my mother made him grilled chicken and steamed vegetables."
Vinny also shared that his former Jersey Shore cast mate Ronnie Ortiz-Magro is doing better after recently being hospitalized for kidney stones.
"I texted him. He said he's not in good shape right now. He's still bedridden. But I'm happy hes actually texting back and is responsive to me but he has kidney infections, so hopefully he does okay and pulls through."
Listen to the full interview above and tune in to The Show with Vinny, which premieres Thursday, May 2 on MTV at 10/9c.

Eighth Annual
Summer Law Program in The Hague
May 17-June 13, 2015
The Summer Law Program in The Hague offers participants an opportunity to study some of the most important legal issues today in the heart of the international justice community. The ABA-approved, six-credit summer program includes two three-credit courses: International Criminal Law: In Search of Accountability and International Legal Approaches to Terrorism in the 21st Century. The program was launched in June 2007, with 26 J.D. and LL.M. participants from six universities. It has since been expanded: in 2014, 23 Washington College of Law students and 4 students from other institutions participated.
The Program in The Hague is the product of a unique collaboration between the War Crimes Research Office of American University's Washington College of Law, established in 1995 to provide specialized legal research assistance to international/ized criminal tribunals, and the T.M.C. Asser Institute, one of the most prominent research institutes of international law in Europe.
In 1899, the world's first Peace Conference took place in The Hague; today this city on the North Sea is home to over 150 international legal organizations. Through the Program, participants will have the opportunity to live and learn about key issues in international law among the practitioners, courts, and tribunals that are making history today.

Kanban are usually 'tickets' but can be simple visual signals, such as the presence or absence of a part on a shelf.

As a matter of fact, I've more than come to accept it as the way things are. An athlete is cheating on his wife? So what. I knew an offensive lineman who was nailing someone else's girlfriend the entire summer before our senior year. An athlete gets out of a DUI? So what. I knew a guy who got busted for underage DUI and it was swept under the rug.
These men (and some women) don't occupy the same space most people do. Their lives are different, they're privileged. Don't hate them for what they have and what they can get away with. Hate yourselves for allowing it to come to this. Every time you buy a hat with the NFL logo on it, you're saying it's ok that the league has thugs and scumbags. Everytime you watch a game, you say it's ok for Pacman Jones to be in a strip club at 3 AM. Everytime you go see a game in person, you're saying it's ok for Mike Vick to have dog fights at his house.
We're as much to blame in all of this as the NFL and the players. But in today's world of it always being someone else's fault, we'll never acknowldege that fact.
Funny... I know two people who drafted into NHL hockey... one that actually played for some time. NEITHER of them were like that. Maybe it is just the sport... or the fact that REGARDLESS of what others say, people STILL have to take personal responsibility for thier actions.
And I am sorry... a football player occupies about 9 inches more space height wise, and about 5 inches in width... outside of that, there is no difference in what kind of "space" he occupies. Wrong is wrong. Sleeping with another guys wife or girlfriend is wrong. Period. No excuses. DUI... wrong. Period. The problem is not that we don't understand, its that there are a few people who don't care. Even so, it doesn't make it right... no matter the excuse.

Three Points From Knock Out Stages
Celtic are looking forward to the game against Benfica which culd see them qualify for the knock out stages with a game to spare
Celtic assistant manager Johan Mjallby wants to keep adding to the pressure on hosts Benfica ahead of Tuesday night's Champions League encounter in Lisbon. Celtic are two points behind Barcelona, who lost 2-1 at Parkhead earlier in the month. Benfica are in third place on four points while Spartak Moscow are bottom with three. A win on Wednesday would guarantee Celtic progressing to the knockout stages while eliminating the Portuguese side. A score draw would also be enough if section leaders Barcelona beat Spartak Moscow. Ahead of flying to Portugal, Mjallby said: "We are in a great position. There is more pressure on Benfica because they really need to win the game. But it is a difficult game, it's a Champions League match away from home and we really respect Benfica, we think they are a really good side. But the confidence is there, we have shown that we can play away from home so why not go out and nick that vital point? They are probably going to go all out and win the game and they are going to be strong at home, a good side going forward, well organised but at the end of the day we have picked up a lot of confidence from our away games and we know that if we defend really well we can get something from this game. Scott Brown and Gary Hooper are back in contention and Kris Commons and Georgios Samaras seem to be okay. Joe Ledley and Miku are back in contention and we have to wait to see how they are tonight when we train."

Initially formed by the trio of David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash, the genesis of the group lies in two 1960s rock bands, The Byrds and The Hollies, and the demise of a third, Buffalo Springfield. Friction existed between David Crosby and his bandmates in the Byrds, and he was dismissed from the Byrds in the fall of 1967.
By early 1968, Buffalo Springfield had also disintegrated over personal issues, and after aiding in putting together the band's final album, Stephen Stills found himself unemployed by the summer. He and Crosby began meeting informally and jamming, the results of one encounter in Florida on Crosby's schooner being the song "Wooden Ships," composed in collaboration with another guest, Paul Kantner....

Isle of Dogs parks private hire to be approved
Tower Hamlets' Mayor Lutfur Rahman is to allow corporate and commercial events in three Isle of Dogs parks sparking fears that local communities will find their access restricted.
Millwall Park, Sir John McDougal Gardens and Island Gardens are among a number of parks in the borough to be hired out, raising up to £200,000 a year for the Council.
The plan will be approved under executive powers by the Mayor and his Cabinet this evening, despite a full Council meeting last September rejecting plans.
Residents and community groups, including Millwall Park and Island Gardens User Group, oppose the plans and are demanding more consultation. The Group's chair Lorraine Cavanagh cited the Council's firework display in Millwall Park on November 5 as an example of the problems the plans could cause.
She said: "The fireworks caused all kinds of damage and disruption. It was a 20 minute display but it took three days to set up and three days to take down afterwards.
"There were lorries all over the grass, churning it up, so not only were we not able to use parts of the park for almost a week it was a real mess when we could access those areas again. They even put temporary toilets right next to the children's playground.
"The Council didn't take their sign for the fireworks down. It was eventually taken down by us last week. We're still waiting for answers from the Council's arts and events department about the display.
"If that's an example of how they will run things, what can we expect when the park is used for commercial purposes? Who cleans up? Who supervises? How long will park users be denied access to parts of the park each time and how often will it happen?
"This is all profit led and not taking into account the local community. Why have a local green space if the Council are just going to rent it out to the highest bidder?"
Millwall Rugby Club have their clubhouse on Millwall Park and play many of their games there.
Club spokesman Andrew Hessleden said: "The club is not against commercial events but we do feel they should not infringe on the enjoyment of local residents or clubs and sports associations using the park.
"We would expect the council would only ever hire out the parks for events that are free of charge for the local community or enhance the lives of local residents and certainly do not prevent them using the parks for things such as sports fixtures or recreation."
Millwall councillor David Snowdon said the fight would go on.
He said: "There are various things we will be looking at to see if we can prevent the parks being used. This will not be the end of it. It's disgraceful the Mayor is riding roughshod over the feelings of local people. It's wrong that he's using his powers in this way.
"The full Council has been clear that the parks on the Isle of Dogs should be used by local people. Commercial events have no place in our parks. The Mayor should think again."
The Council said parks will remain accessible for community use, with 10 per cent of income used for park improvements.

This is an outrageous decision by Lutfur Rahman and his authoritarian regime, not that he cares much about the Island as there are precious few votes for him down here. I hope our elected councillors fight this every step of the way. I imagine each and every event will require planning permission so residents should do their bit and voice their opposition to the planning committee.

Consumers will redeem 10bn mobile coupons this year, up 50% on 2012, according to Juniper.
The analyst's Mobile Coupons: Strategies, Opportunities & Forecasts 2012-2017 report says that retailers are increasingly using mobile as a way of driving footfall and enhancing customer engagement and retention, with Apple's recent launch of Passbook expected to act as a catalyst to the deployment and adoption of mobile coupons.
What's more, the report says that retailers have seen higher average redemption rate for mobile coupons (10%), when compared to traditional print media and PC coupons (1% or less).
Nevertheless, it warns retailers to be careful, noting that a number of offers had gone unintentionally "viral", leading to brands being unable to service the demand.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Police vehicles in the United States and Canada are made by several manufacturers and are available in three broad vehicle types:
The first police car was a wagon run by electricity fielded on the streets of Akron, Ohio in 1899.[1] Since the 1920s, the New York City Police Department has employed a fleet of Radio Motor Patrol vehicles to aid in its fight against crime in the city.
Ford's introduction of the Ford flathead V-8 in its Model B in 1932, the first low-priced, mass-marketed car with a V8 engine, gave it brand loyalty that allowed it to capture the police car market until 1968. In the 1940s and 1950s the Big Three began to offer specialized police packages with severe duty parts. Foremost among these was the Ford package of 1950, which utilized the larger and more powerful Mercury engine in the smaller, lighter Ford. This ended the practice of some state police of buying larger, more powerful, higher priced models including Buicks, Hudsons, and Chryslers. In 1969, Plymouth took first place in the police market, with Chrysler Corporation's 440 cu. in. V8s, Torqueflite transmissions, and torsion bar suspensions giving them a compelling advantage. Chrysler held their lead until the 1970s energy crisis drove buyers to smaller cars and Chrysler discontinued their rear-drive platform after the 1989 model year.[2]
In the United States and Canada, police departments historically have used standard-size, low-price line sedans since the days of the Ford Model A. Many police departments switched to intermediates, such as the Plymouth Satellite, Ford Torino and AMC Matador, in the 1960s and 1970s. Some state highway patrols (such as California and Missouri) adopted pony cars such as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, and AMC Javelin as high-speed pursuit vehicles. The Ford LTD, Plymouth Gran Fury and Chevrolet Caprice were re-adopted as standard when the models were downsized in the late 1970s. Since the termination of the Chevrolet Caprice product, most police departments currently use the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor as the standard patrol car. New North American Crown Victoria Police Interceptors are optionally equipped with a fire suppression system to combat the threat to highway patrol vehicles of rear-end impacts while parked on the side of highways. In September 2011, however, the Crown Victoria was discontinued, in favour of the 6th-generation Taurus. This has helped Dodge reclaim leadership in the market with the Charger.
Non-Crown Victoria police vehicles may be bought to diversify a police department's fleet, so that less disruption occurs should a recall occur.[3]
While some departments have adopted SUVs and front-wheel drive sedans (mainly the Chevrolet Impala), the rear-wheel-drive V8 configuration is favored for being consistent with pursuit driver training as well as for better reliability. Trials with front-wheel-drive vehicles like the Ford Taurus and Chevrolet Impala have shown problems with the cost of maintenance.[4][5][6] In 1994, for example, a Ford spokeswoman noted that "It is certainly true that any front-wheel-drive car would be more expensive and difficult to maintain if you subjected it to the kind of hard use they get in police departments."[7] General Motors and Chrysler provide other types (front-wheel drive, smaller engine) police vehicles as well, and a few jurisdictions (primarily in Canada) use these vehicles. The Chevrolet Tahoe PPV version along with the Ford [Explorer] Police Interceptor Utility are both pursuit-rated SUV's. Many jurisdictions use the Chevrolet Impala, which in its current configuration is a front-wheel-drive V6. The Dodge Charger R/T is the most likely challenger to the Crown Victoria as a RWD V8 patrol car,[8] though the Washington State Patrol and the North Carolina Highway Patrol are using the vehicle initially as an unmarked patrol car. The Charger has shown great promise as a police car, being faster and more fuel efficient than the commonly used Ford Crown Victoria.[3] Some complaints about the Charger though are its limited rear visibility and smaller trunk than the Crown Victoria. There were, in the 2005 and 2006 model years, significant problems with the braking systems, which has since been revised by Dodge. At the end of 2006, multiple Dodge Chargers have been put into the NYPD fleet for citywide testing. In the summer of 2006, the Georgia State Patrol announced that it would begin using the Charger R/T for high speed chases on Interstate highways due to its additional power and speed, and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol switched to the model early as well. As of 2007[update], the Alameda County (California) Sheriff's Office has plans as well to upgrade to the Charger. Many police agencies in the metropolitan Detroit area have also adopted a fleet that includes a number of the Dodge. Dodge only rates their 6-cylinder and Hemi-engined versions as "pursuit capable" (when ordered as a police package). The R/T version is not available in a police package. Other agencies, including the California Highway Patrol and Chicago Police Department, are replacing their older cruisers with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility [Explorer] variant due to its large cargo and equipment-carrying ability, as well as its optional AWD system. In 2013, according to statistics compiled by R.L. Polk, the FPI-U (Explorer) became the most popular PPV in the U.S.[9] The standard Ford Taurus-based PI can also be equipped with AWD.
North American police cars were once noted for being painted black and white, with the car doors and roof painted white, while the trunk, hood, front fenders and rear quarter panels were painted black. The fleet vehicles that were used typically came painted in a single color, most commonly white or black, from the factory and were used as such. The contrasting black or white color was added to make the vehicle stand out from civilian vehicles. In 2007, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) began converting its fleet back to a black-and-white scheme after decades of using other colours.
Beginning in the 1970s, police vehicle markings have become increasingly stylistic, with widespread use of computer-graphics and vinyl striping. While black and white designs are still in use in many jurisdictions, cars may range from being all white to completely black. Blues and greens of various hues are also frequently used. Brown, beiges and tans are favored by rural police and sheriff's offices.
Official markings also vary by jurisdiction. The side doors and sometimes the hood of a marked police car usually bear the agency's badge or the city seal, often in reflective finish. Markings such as emergency telephone numbers, generic anti-drug or anti-crime messages, or even website URLs are also common. Some agencies also have identification numbers printed on the roofs of patrol cars for tracking from aircraft, or to distinguish specialized units, such as K-9 units or supervisors.
Currently, in the United States, the paint scheme for each fleet is determined either by the individual agency or by uniform state legislation as in Minnesota.[10] Usually, state laws exist that establish standards for police vehicle markings, and proscribe civilian vehicles from using certain markings or paint schemes as is the case in California.[11]
Today, most fleet markings on patrol vehicles are created from reflective vinyl with an adhesive backing that is applied in a peel-and-stick manner. Colors chosen to represent the departments identity are typically chosen by the individual department, although, as noted above, some states have specific guidelines for color schemes and markings. Vinyl used to produce fleet markings comes in large rolls that are fed through a plotter (cutter) or large-format printer/cutter. The designs are created in specialized computer software and sent to the machines via cable link for production. Once the design is cut into the vinyl, the excess vinyl on the sheet is removed in a process called "weeding". Finally, a paper pre-mask is applied to the top of the vinyl design to allow easy application of multiple letters and shapes at one time.

Police departments also use alternative police vehicles.
A number of Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) programs in local police departments have some notable vehicles marked as police cars to promote the program. The DARE cars appear at schools and in parades. Typically these cars are high-end or performance cars that have been seized in a drug raid. They are used to send the message that drug dealers forfeit all their glamorous trappings when they get caught. Cars include the Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, and Humvee.
Ford ceased production of the ubiquitous Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor in 2011, it was replaced by both the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan & Ford Police Interceptor Utility.[38] On March 12, 2010, a prototype Ford Police Interceptor Sedan based on the sixth generation Taurus's platform was demonstrated at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway and Ford assured law enforcement agencies that it would be in production when the last Crown Victorias are built in September 2011.[39] The car was also displayed to fleet managers from Canada and the United States at the National Association of Fleet Administrators (NAFA) exposition in Detroit in April.[40] Months after the Sedan was unveiled a prototype Ford Police Interceptor Utility based on the fifth generation Ford Explorer was unveiled at Ford's Chicago plant in front of its work force by then VP of U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service Ken Czubay. The production of the Police Interceptor Sedan began in 2012 as a 2013 model along with the Utility counterpart while in 2013 Ford also announced a Special Service Sedan based on the sixth generation Taurus.
Another viable contender, based on the Holden Caprice and badged as a Chevrolet Caprice, was displayed in October 2009 to North American law enforcement agencies, who have been advised that orders will be taken in 2010 for delivery in 2011.[41]

As the nation's unemployment rate dropped to a four-year low, people with disabilities saw improvements in the labor market as well.
The jobless rate for Americans with disabilities fell to 12.3 percent in February, the U.S. Department of Labor said Friday. That's down from 13.7 percent the previous month.
The gains for those with disabilities appeared to mirror positive signs in the workforce as a whole. Labor statistics show the unemployment rate for the general population was 7.7 percent last month, down slightly from 7.9 percent in January, as the economy added 236,000 jobs.
The Labor Department began tracking employment among people with disabilities in October 2008. There is not yet enough data compiled to establish seasonal trends among this population, so statistics for this group are not seasonally adjusted.
Data on people with disabilities covers those over the age of 16 who do not live in institutions. The first employment report specific to this population was made available in February 2009. Now, reports are released monthly.

every thing is growing the implement is getting better, getting for the disable. but still on struggling to get a stable job and relax and get time to the family.
This is not a comment but a question. How or who do I contact to help me in my job search. I know people judge me because of my speech difficulties. I feel like I am being discriminated because of it, having a very hard time getting a job. Are there local agencies that can help?
Yes. Contact your local Regional Center. Thy should be able to give you information on a service provider who can advocate for you.
The numbers they do not look at are the underemployment figures. This means that more people are employed but the job data incomplete this means it does not tell what the person is earning, is it full time, and does come with benefits. The underemployment means people are barely making it and not thriving whether if a person disable or not. So this feel good stat but there not enough questions as to what is providing the improvement. If I was leading job economist I would focus more on the Underemployment which is a part time jobs with no benefits which makes families go on entitlement programs such as food stamps.
Last time I check 26% to 30% which extremely high compared to the the 7%. It is all a matter how one interpret the numbers and that is subjective as well.
Anyone who works with indiviudals with disabilities knows that all disabilities are not created equil. It is hard to believe the 12% unemployment rate when considering that the unemployment rate for ndividuals with developmental disabilities is 80% (National Association of Councils on Developmental disabilities (NACDD).
@colin coady
Each state and some territories have their own developmental disabilities council, and if you get in touch with your local council, they may have useful resources for you. I know that the Arizona council has some pretty handy resources.I hope this is helpful for you.

HB 786, or the RECLAIM NC Act, should be called the "Repo" Act.
Most of the attention in the RECLAIM –er, Repo Act — has been focused on a provision that would provide a limited number of undocumented immigrants driver permits, or on the part cribbed from a racist Arizona bill that would allow law enforcement officers to arrest people they "suspect" might be undocumented immigrants.
One overlooked horror in this bill is Part X. This provision would impound and then sell at auction all the cars driven by anyone who is found guilty of driving without a license, whose insurance has lapsed and a few other similar violations.
Last fiscal year, more than 215,000 people were charged with one of those misdemeanors, according to statistics maintained by the Administrative Office of the Courts. If "Repo" were law in 2012, all the vehicles these people had been driving would have been impounded. Read More

June/July 2013 EHJ (Issue 137) - Shooting light still lingered an hour to the east as the six horses worked their way up the long ridge. Even in the pre-dawn blackness they made good time, mainly due to familiarity. We had ridden horses up this ridge in the dark well over a hundred times. I glanced through an opening in the timber to my right and could see a hint of light creeping over the divide.
Another thirty minutes to the saddle, I thought to myself, and then my mind began to wander.
My thoughts quickly raced to the image of the bull on my brother Rusty's trail camera. Two days earlier, on opening morning, I had stillhunted my way into the head of one of our favorite canyons. At a strategic water crossing, I located his trail camera and quickly sat down to examine its contents. He had left it at the end of bow season nearly three weeks before, and I anticipated seeing some elk movement near the water, due to the dry weather.
The first image was from one day earlier, when a fairly large tom cougar had slunk across the stream. I was disheartened by the sight and promptly scanned the woods around me as the hair on my neck rose. Not expecting much, I scrolled back one more image and nearly dropped the camera. Crossing the creek right behind a cow was the largest bull I had ever seen in this country. I found myself looking at a main frame seven-point with great tine length and better-than-average mass.
"Rusty, you should see this bull on your camera from two days ago," I whispered into my radio. "His right antler scores over 150 inches," I said, as my mind quickly did the math.
"What does he look like? How much mass? What time of day was he there?"
Rusty shot me questions excitedly, obviously antsy when he couldn't view the image himself. I conservatively estimated the bull at 330 inches. We decided that we had never seen him on our cameras before, nor had we picked up any of his shed antlers.
The excitement of this new bull led to two long days of focused hunting. We glassed, called, and stillhunted several pockets in the area, moving or seeing very few elk. It seemed desolate, where just days before, this big bull and several cows had been living. We logged over fifteen miles on foot, trying to locate him. Dry conditions and predator pressure had pushed most of the elk to lower elevations.
To make things worse, fifty days without rain was making it impossible to move through the woods without making noise. The tough conditions, lack of elk, and knowledge that the big bull couldn't be too far away had brought us to where we were this morning – six guys climbing the long ridge on horseback, fifteen minutes from the saddle.
My thoughts drifted from that bull to the five guys riding in the dark around me. My father Ron was up front on his horse. Right behind Dad was our great family friend, Cliff Twidt. My younger brother Rusty was on the horse directly in front of me, and Cliff's stepson Brady Spurway was right behind me. This group of guys, whom I consider my family, had been hunting this canyon for well over forty years. At age 42, it was my 31st year of hunting this canyon with these guys.
For a full account of Ryan's adventure, go to page 34 in the June/July 2013 issue of Eastmans' Hunting Journal.

Apple has no plans to release gaming console
By Nigel Chew
08 June 2012 - Apple has continued saying that it isn't interested in dabbling into the console business. Apple CEO Tim Cook has mentioned Apple's interest in gaming, but it's not interested into going into a full-blown gaming experience. He added that mobile is getting more popular, therefore the medium is evolving. Cook does say that Apple is fairly big in the gaming market, and mentions the increasing number of people playing on mobile devices, and that Apple would see where the future takes them.
After all, customers love games. He added, "I'm not interested in the 'traditional' console business, but Apple is a big player today, and things in the future would only make it grow." Mobile is indeed growing, with all the unique and interesting games released over the year, something that doesn't happen with the console platform seeing that it's just a general repeat of similar games or sequels.

of Pentecost, 1987 It is almost a year since I joined you to share your hopes and dreams, your cares and your needs as servants of this local Church. We have been in communication often, thank God, in the course of these eleven months. I have met and talked with many of you and listened to your hearts, and have tried to respond, the best I could, to the concerns which you have shared with me. I am grateful to you that you have received me so warmly, accepted me in your service and supported me in your prayers. In a special way, I thank you for the prayers that have been offered for me on the occasion of my tenth anniversary as a Bishop which I celebrate this month. This is the first time that I am writing to you in the form of a brief pastoral letter. I use this form now both at the request of the newly-appointed Archdiocesan Committee for the Marian Year - the worldwide celebration of our Church which begins June 7 - and because it seemed so appropriate that this first pastoral of mine might speak of Mary the ever blessed Virgin Mother of God, of her whom we hail as the gate through which the Savior saw fit to enter the confines and the confusion of our mortal world. Pope John Paul II's Encyclical on the Mother of the Redeemer, in which he set the theological foundations for the Holy Year, speaks of Our Lady in the sacred scriptures and in the life of the Church. In a beautiful reflection, the Holy Father writes of her early years of childhood and youth, of those mystery years when quietly and gently - and unbeknownst to her - the Almighty Father was preparing Mary to become the mother of His divine Son. These are the years before the fullness of time had arrived, the years in which she, who was immaculately conceived, must constantly have grown in virtue and holiness so that at their conclusion, the angel might truly greet her in the words of the Gospel "hail full of grace". As the Father of Creation looked upon the human race in these days before the Incarnation, she must have shone like a flawless diamond among her neighbors and companions, brilliant as the morning star, awesome as an army in battle array! In those days, before the Holy Spirit came upon her and the Word became flesh within her womb, she was the extraordinary witness to the faithfulness of the promise which God had made that He would redeem the world and open up again the gates of heaven. In the obscure village of Nazareth, living totally in the presence of God, quietly and simply, never ever dreaming of the role that she would be asked to play in the history of the world's salvation, Mary is the bridge between the expectations of Israel and the fulfillment which takes place in Jesus. In these years, as she grows in wisdom and in grace until the fullness of time, she teaches us that life's greatest gift is to live in the friendship of God. Ever since the early days of our holy Church, Christians have loved the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this we have fittingly followed the example of her Son, Jesus Christ Our Lord, who must have loved His mother with a love we cannot begin to describe. We reverence her virtues, we venerate her holiness, we are inspired by the wonder of her life, by her closeness to God, by her mysterious participation in the drama of our salvation. We realize fully well that she is just a human being like ourselves, but it is this which makes her all the more approachable, the more understanding, the more near to us in our troubles and our joys. The ancient Fathers of the Church taught that it is in our relationship with Mary that we often find the test of faith of the true Christian. For that reason they would praise her as one who has destroyed all the heresies of the world. Indeed the way we look at Mary is a sign of the way we look at Christ, her son. Those who deny that she is truly the Mother of God either make Jesus a mere man or fall into the old rejected heresy of Adoptionism. Those who would see her as more than a human being attack the essential humanity of her Son, who takes His sacred humanness from her alone. She is the standard on which our Christology must stand or fall. She is God's mother and our own. Her closeness to the Trinity as the well beloved daughter of the Father, the faithful Spouse of the Spirit, the Mother of the Son, is both the source of her great power and the model of our own relationship with God. Mary's example of prayerfulness calls us to conversation with the Lord. Her example of courage challenges us to valiant Christian living. Her gentleness and love inspire us to overcome our pride and sinfulness, our sin. As we draw close to the two thousand years of the Christian era, Pope John Paul II calls us to concentrate our vision on Mary, who two thousand years ago was preparing for the coming of the Messiah, never dreaming that He would come into the world as her own beloved son. We too must prepare for the wonders of the third millennium of the good news of our salvation. We now know more than Mary did in the dark days before the Incarnation. We know that He has come, the Messiah and Lord. We know the message of love and peace He brought with Him, and that He put the red seal of His blood on it to ratify it in His Passion. We know that He has risen for our justification and that He will come again, that He has sent His Holy Spirit among us for the forgiveness of our sins. We know that He has willed to be present still in His Church and in the power of His sacraments. In a special way we know that He has given us His mother to be our model and our hope, the cause of our joy and the refuge of sinners. Let us turn to her with ever more determined steps and call on her powerful intercession. After all, she is the great patroness of the Church of Newark. It is then into these mother's hands that I entrust all our hopes and dreams, our needs and burdens, the weaknesses and the failings of this Archdiocese, as well as its strength and its glories. May she turn her eyes of mercy towards us and, after this our exile, show unto us Jesus, the blessed fruit of her virginal womb. Amen. The Most
Reverend Theodore E. McCarrick, Ph.D

ecoATM is the first company to create an automated self-serve kiosk system that uses patented, advanced machine vision, electronic diagnostics, and artificial intelligence to evaluate and buy-back used electronics directly from consumers for cash or store credit.
Solving the eWaste problem on a broad scale requires the collaboration of the OEM's that make the devices, the retailers that sell them, and the consumers that buy and retire them. With $25B in latent consumer assets available to mine and use as the incentive for all stakeholders in the chain, ecoATM will dramatically alter the current life-cycle of consumer electronics much the way 1970's redemption value laws on bottles and cans dramatically changed their life-cycle. Given the enormous underserved worldwide demand for used mobile phones and other electronics, and the enormous and perpetually growing cache of these devices cluttering the homes of US consumers, a rare opportunity exists to build an enterprise which benefits consumers, retailers, OEM's, and the environment alike.

Hyland Arena on campus, located at 209 S. Kingshighway, St. Charles, MO 63301.

Approximately 650 to 700 students are expected to take part in the ceremony. Missouri Senator Tom Dempsey will be the keynote speaker for the event. Dempsey was elected to the Senate after winning a special election in 2007 and was re-elected in 2008 and 2012. He currently serves as Senate leader and is the only Missouri lawmaker to have served as both house majority floor leader and senate majority floor leader. Dempsey is also the vice president of First National Bank of St. Louis and a member of the Greater St. Charles County Chamber of Commerce, St. Charles Rotary Club, and St. Cletus Catholic Church. Student speakers for the ceremony will be Michael DeVault from the Lindenwood Online Program and Kayla Piers for the daytime programs. In May, more than 1,500 students participated in Lindenwood's graduate and undergraduate commencement exercises, which have been held since 2007 at the St. Charles Family Arena and will continue to be. This was also the first year that Lindenwood's Belleville campus held its own commencement exercises, which were conducted on the Lindenwood Belleville campus. ### Press Release Contact:Public Relations |

Americans at the Tour de France
George Hincapie
4 / 8
New York City native Hincapie is riding his 17th Tour de France. The American is in his final season of racing, and has come to the Tour to support the yellow-jersey campaign of 2011 Tour winner Evans. On the flat stages of the Tour's first week Hincapie was a visible figure. He frequently worked on the front, and often has had Evans tucked safely in his slipstream. On the run-in to the tricky finish in Seraing, Hincapie towed Evans to the front just before the final climb. Then, on the way into Metz for the final sprint stage of the first week, Hincapie battled shoulder to shoulder with the sprint trains and delivered Evans safely to the three-kilometer banner (all riders receive the same time at that point on flat stages). Hincapie sits 49th at over 20 minutes down on the general classification, but that won't matter much to him. What matters for Hincapie is where Evans places in Paris.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
The Lost Children of the Alleghenies is a folk story from the Appalachia region of the United States. Joseph and George Cox are known through the Allegheny Mountains as The Lost Children of the Alleghenies. A small memorial is nestled in the dense forest of Spruce Hollow of Blue Knob State Park in Pennsylvania.
Joseph and George Cox were buried in the Mount Union Cemetery.[1]
In 1906, for the 50th anniversary of the event, the community of Pavia took up donations for a Lost Children of the Alleghenies Monument to honor the Cox family. In 1910, they erected the monument at the spot where Joseph and George Cox were found over 50 years earlier.
Alison Krauss released a song written by Julie Lee and John Pennell about the story entitled "Jacob's Dream".[2]

European leaders have been working to figure out a way to supervise banks spread across the different countries that use the Euro currency. Today, the German finance minister said a new system will be up and running by the spring of 2014. It will give the European Central Bank power to oversee the EU's big banks and step in whenever there are signs of trouble.

By Producer Jack
Having just spent the best part of ten days in New York City between a hotel room in Soho, the surprisingly well stocked grocers across the street and the Radio City Theatre, our sudden drive through the expansive cornfields of Iowa is more eerie than it might ordinarily be.
Beautiful as it is, I look at the lonely houses scattered through the maze of maize and primarily wonder if perhaps I am metro-polised – a word I think I may have just made up for being institutionalized in cities.
The come down after a night as glittering as the VMAs is palpable. Even as a non-performing member of the team, the focus and dedication it requires means that mental readjustments are needed. I can only imagine how these are multiplied by the high of live performance and without the option of getting blind drunk after.
To be honest getting the tone of the material right this year was a little tricky. At times we were treading a comedy tightrope fit for Pink's circus.
It's a particularly precarious gig because of the odd atmosphere in the room and Russell's admirable desire never to compromise. Prevalent concerns produced by these elements are these kind of questions: Which celebrities will handle a gag ok? Will the audience have the concentration to appreciate this joke? Does my bum look big in this skirt? Sorry that was just me.
Deciding what material to actually include is a bit like that moment when you have to decide what shoes to take on holiday. You know one pair will inevitably spend the entire break in the suitcase, it's just bloody difficult to predict which ones before you go.
The dressing room prior to the show has the air that I assume is generally reserved for that of a pro boxer. By then the preparation is done, it's just the psychological battle at this point. Russell calmly paces the room deeply inhaling as the team offer words of positivity. Finally there is a knock from the floor manager and it is time. A quick hug from the gang and he is off, wandering out into the abyss of a live nation. Rather him than me.
Backstage, in our little room we call the 'dog basket' the team huddle round an unnecessarily small TV with the collective nerves of a parent at the first school play. It's odd to watch a man exit a room and immediately appear on TV, it's especially hard to comprehend that on the other side of that grubby blue-tacked wall is the bonkers glam of the VMAs. There he is though, our very own Essex boy up on the stage effortlessly carrying some pretty weighty focus.
Meanwhile, back in the basket our odd co-operative silently lip sync his lines and cheer laughs like he's scoring goals. Gareth and I look at one another grinning and realize he is comfortable out there – the show is in safe hands. Russell is a man uniquely at home in mind-boggling conditions, the added chaos of Kanye just made him more at home. I glance around at the traveling sitcom he has assembled as a team, there is a communal surge of relief and, might I add some really appropriate shoes.

Art4.ru, Moscow
Russia 112322
Tel: 7 495 660 1158
Concierge.com's insider take:
Igor Markin, a businessman who got rich selling refrigerators and manufacturing parts for window blinds, was inspired by the 19th-century philanthropist Pavel Tretyakov's approach to collecting Russian artboth the breadth of the private collection that became the Tretyakov Gallery and the desire to show it to people. So he opened his own sizable collection of postwar Soviet and Russian art to the public, but that's where the comparisons stop. Markin purchased the first floor of an apartment building to house his museum and instead of hiring elderly women (who usually keep watch over museum exhibitions in Moscow museums), Markin brought in pretty young girls and handsome young men to sit at the front desk. He also called on his cyberfriends (he has a blog) to run the place. No one patrols the halls. It's fine to talk on your cell phone, laugh with your friends, and even touch the artwork, which includes everything from Ilya Kabakov installations to paintings by such Soviet non-conformists as Dmitry Krasnopevtsev and Erik Bulatov. Visitors can also read books from the museum's store at tables in the main hall. Art presentations and DJ parties are held on Friday evenings.
Open Tuesdays through Thursdays 11 am to 8 pm, Fridays 11 am to 11 pm, Saturdays and Sundays 11 am to 8 pm.

These CalTrend seat covers were easy to install and fit very well. It took about 2 hours to install them only because I had to remove another set of cheap seat covers we purchased at Walmart. I was impressed with the fit and the quality as well as the ease of installation.They are made of a very tough material and should last for many years.
