text: 'Ambush' killings of lawmen part of increase in slain policeBy Michael Martinez, CNNUpdated 6:28 AM ET, Sat April 6, 2013Just WatchedTexas murders have residents on edgereplayMore Videos ...Texas murders have residents on edge 03:47Story highlightsAmbush killings against law officers have occurred in California, Colorado, Texas, West VirginiaThey contribute to an overall increase in slain officers so far this year, one group saysMany police fear the bullet addressed "To Whom It May Concern"But respect toward law officers is much greater than it was in the 70s, expert saysThey're often called "ambush" killings.Recent slayings of lawmen -- a Colorado prison chief, a Texas prosecutor, a West Virginia sheriff and a California cop -- conjure up comparisons to the deadly surprises and have contributed to a disturbing increase this year in law officer killings nationwide, analysts say."When somebody says 'ambush,' you see a character in a movie and you expect a guy to trip over a line or somebody pop up from a garbage can or somebody has the high ground and shoots on them," said Steve Weiss, research director for the Officer Down Memorial Page, whose website tracks slain U.S. law officers.The Colorado, Texas, California and West Virginia deaths "are kind of like that movie-style ambush," Weiss said. It's what many officers fear most, said CNN contributor Tom Fuentes, a former FBI assistant director.Just WatchedTexas police search for DA's killerreplayMore Videos ...Texas police search for DA's killer 02:39PLAY VIDEOJust Watched Dorner manhunt comes to an endreplayMore Videos ...

There have been 31 officer fatalities in 2013, and 15 of them are gunfire deaths, Weiss said.The killings in the four states have contributed to that increase, Weiss said. His group, however, doesn't include the two prosecutors' deaths in its counting.Colorado prison chief Tom Clements was fatally shot at his home this month after he answered the door bell.Questions haunt prisons chief slaying caseThe Kaufman County, Texas, district attorney and his wife were shot to death in their home last month; his assistant D.A. was fatally gunned down in the parking lot of the county courthouse after a very short confrontation in January.And rogue ex-Los Angeles Police Department officer Christopher Dorner threatened to kill police randomly and in fact shot five officers, killing two earlier this year. A Riverside police officer was fatally shot after Dorner drove up to his vehicle at a stoplight and fired. A San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy was shot by Dorner while responding to a report of a vehicle stolen by someone matching Dorner's description.The sheriff of Mingo County, West Virginia, was killed this week after a gunman walked up to the sheriff as he sat in his vehicle in a parking lot near the county courthouse. The gunman shot the sheriff in the head and then returned to his vehicle and drove away.The FBI defines ambush killings into two types. One is by "entrapment and premeditation," which is a scenario "where the officer was lured into danger as the result of conscious consideration and planning. These attacks are generally accomplished from cover or hiding; however, they can occur without cover or hiding," the agency said.There are also ambushes of "unprovoked attacks," which are "generally accomplished without hiding; however, they can occur with or without cover,' the FBI said.Weiss, however, questioned the FBI definition. From the viewpoint of police, what's considered a routine traffic stop can turn deadly when a motorist suddenly pulls a gun and shoots the officer."Unless you're responding to a scene where someone is shooting, pretty much anything is an ambush," Weiss said. "There's countless number of times where an officer stops a car for a traffic violation and then they are shot."But Weiss acknowledged the ambush circumstances in California, Colorado and Texas, and noted how the Colorado killing evoked America's frontier era of the 1800s when local sheriffs were vulnerable to home attacks."When the public thinks of ambush, it's when someone calls 911 and there's somebody waiting on a rooftop. That's unusual," Weiss said. "They type of incidents in Texas and with the Colorado prison director is even more unusual."When somebody shows up at someone's home, those are really unusual. In these days, you very rarely see that," Weiss said. "Our town is a little more civilized than back in the 1800s."The recent yearly trend of 15 ambush deaths of officers is haunting, Weiss said."Any number above the number zero is high," Weiss said. "That is a high number. To make that decision ever is hard to fathom, but to plan it out in a premeditated matter is troubling."But the overall yearly number of killed officers nationwide is much lower than the 1970s -- an era when violence on police was remarkably high, according to Weiss and Fuentes.There were 120 officers killed in 2012, 176 each in 2011 and 2010, and 140 in 2009, Weiss said.Those figures compare with 249 in 1971, 232 in 1972, 273 in 1973, and 279 in 1974, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page website.Fuentes recalled the 1970s as an era where public respect toward police was low."With the Dirty Harry and Charles Bronson and 'Death Wish' movies, it was fair game to shoot cops on the street and there was generally a lack of respect for uniformed officers," Fuentes said. "But over the years, the respect has returned and been earned."When respect goes up, the attacks go down," he added.More from usDOJ report reveals racist emails sent by Ferguson PDNavy's newest crew: 'The Three Presidents'Same-Sex Marriage Fast FactsPowered by Livefyre

Justin lived out every guy's biggest dream Nov. 7: partying with a bunch of gorgeous lingerie models! And girlfriend Selena Gomez was nowhere in sight.
Justin Bieber spent the after party of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show partying with models in a private corner of Manhattan nightclub Lavo, where he was seen "close-talking and laughing" with the girls, an eyewitness tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively.
Surrounded by scantily clad women, Justin performed at the fashion show, which will air in December. However it was after the show ended that the fun really started, as Justin the club with the Angels, including Miranda Kerr and Lily Aldridge. According to our insider, Justin was having a really good time.
"He was sitting with a group of people … laughing and having fun with a couple of models," our insider reveals. "Miranda Kerr was there, and he was sitting right by Lily Aldridge and her Kings of Leon hubby [Caleb Followill]. It seemed more friendly then flirty. They were all having a great time hanging out, and they seemed so comfortable. He got up from the table at 12:15, so he was there for right under an hour."
And, of course, Justin's girlfriend Selena Gomez was nowhere to be seen throughout the whole show or the after party. This news comes just one day after Selena snubbed Justin on Twitter, as she thanked both Ryan Seacrest and Taylor Swift for her Glamour award win — but not him!
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Are Justin and Selena over?

It looks like Justin loves women. At his age they're hard to resist especially if they are models. He should know or doesn't care if Selena sees these pictures. Selena is not the type that will be played for a fool. She is a very attractive woman and I'm sure would not have any trouble finding someone else in a minute. Justin has millions of girls (not women) wanting him which can be very tempting when his girlfriend is not around. I have a feeling that temptation will win and he'll destroy his relationship with Selena. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

Passover events begin tonight in ETX
POSTED: Friday, April 6, 2012 - 3:55pm
UPDATED: Sunday, April 8, 2012 - 8:29pm
Today, Christians observe Good Friday.
But for Jewish people, Friday night marks the beginning of Passover.
Passover is a seven or eight day holiday depending on the community in which you live.
It's a Jewish celebration remembering the Israelites freedom from slavery in Egypt, and local temples around the world and in east Texas will spend the next week retelling that story.
Rabbi Neal Katz of Congregation Beth El in Tyler is preparing for the beginning of Passover events.
Friday evening, a group of about 70 people from the congregation will have what is called a seder.
The seder is a traditional meal that helps tell the story of Passover through blessings, symbolic foods and readings from a book called the Haggadduh.
Monday, the congregation will host a second seder, which is open to the public and welcomes all faiths.
Throughout the week, Jewish people refrain from eating any leavened bread, which is said to come from the biblical account that the Jews left Egypt in such a hurry, they didn't have time to allow bread to rise.

It criminalizes production and dissemination of technology, devices, or services intended to circumvent measures (commonly known as digital rights management or DRM) that control access to copyrighted works. It also criminalizes the act of circumventing an access control, whether or not there is actual infringement of copyright itself. Re: Wikipedia and Commons screenshots of GNU programms.

You would be better off asking that question of the FSF. This mailing list is for discussing the legal aspects of including things in the Debian operating system. That being said, most of the screenshots you link to could not reasonably be covered by the copyright (or other intellectual property rights) of the programs whose output are being depicted. Right to quote. Right to quote is a legal concept in continental Europe, which some people consider similar to fair use.[1] It allows for quoting excerpts of copyrighted works, as long as the cited paragraphs are within a reasonable limit (varying from country to country), clearly marked as quotations and fully referenced, and if the resulting new work is not just a collection of quotations, but constitutes a fully original work in itself.
In some countries the intended use of the work (educational, scientific, parodist, etc.) may also be a factor determining the scope of this right. France[edit] In France, it is illegal to reproduce someone's work without their approval. But if the work is published, i.e. no longer being edited prior to release, small quotations are legal.[2] Fair dealing: Encyclopedia II - Fair dealing - Fair dealing in Singapore.

Sorry for the low quality. NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED Under the provisi... Copyright Act. Marginal note:Telecommunication 2.3 A person who communicates a work or other subject-matter to the public by telecommunication does not by that act alone perform it in public, nor by that act alone is deemed to authorize its performance in public.
Marginal note:Communication to the public by telecommunication. Fair dealing. Fair dealing is a limitation and exception to the exclusive right granted by copyright law to the author of a creative work, which is found in many of the common law jurisdictions of the Commonwealth of Nations.
Fair dealing is an enumerated set of possible defences against an action for infringement of an exclusive right of copyright. Unlike the related United States doctrine of fair use, fair dealing cannot apply to any act which does not fall within one of these categories. In practice, common law courts might rule that actions with a commercial character, which might be naïvely assumed to fall into one of these categories, were in fact infringements of copyright as fair dealing is not as flexible a concept as the American concept of fair use.
Fair dealing by country[edit] What the "jailbreak" exemption says about the future of copyright law. I dashed off a piece for CNET today on the Copyright Office's cell phone "jailbreaking" rulemaking earlier this week.
Though there has already been extensive coverage (including solid pieces in The Washington Post, a New York Times editorial, CNET, and Techdirt), there were a few interesting aspects to the decision I thought were worth highlighting. Most notably, I was interested that no one had discussed the possibility and process by which Apple or other service providers could appeal the rulemaking. Ordinarily, parties who object to rules enrolled by administrative agencies can file suit in federal district court under the Administrative Procedures Act. Such suits are difficult to win, as courts give deference to administrative determinations and review them only for errors of law. But a win for the agency is by no means guaranteed.

Years ago, it was not unusual for grandparents to share the same roof with their grandchildren, and it is becoming the norm once again. The age wave has joined forces with the weakening economy, triggering a rise in multigenerational households. Builders have noticed the trend and have been revising home designs accordingly, constructing more houses featuring "a semi-independent suite with a separate entry, bathroom and kitchenette," says this article from The Eagle, a Texas-based online newspaper.
Though the article purports it is difficult to say exactly who will purchase these redesigned homes in the future, Gary Painter, a researcher from the University of Southern California, believes, "There certainly is a demand to be close."
National homebuilder Lennar is already advertising their specialized multigenerational floor plans as "Next Gen: The Home Within a Home." (More information is available at LennarNextGen.com.)
What will the impact on traditional senior housing (nursing homes, senior apartments) be as more seniors move in with their families? Only time will tell. However, there is still a need for other options, particularly for those who have outlived family members or never had children of their own. Given the fiscal state of affairs, the most affordable, readily available and accessible solution will win.

When I hear the name Valentino, I think about many things, more precisely his very own customized shade of red. Valentino has solely managed to capture the attention of an International fashion audience and hold that attention to last a career spanning over four decades. His signature and mastery is based around elegance and his intricate craft on creating the most perfect evening gown.
Valentino has made a name for himself as a designer who's extravagant fashions will forever go untouched by time.
In 2007 he announced that he was retiring, he was 75 and had done it all, one of the highlights being, Jackie Onassis' wedding dress. In order to celebrate his career, a fashion extravaganza took place in Rome and Valentino showcased one of his last haute-couture shows. He retired fully in 2008.
Now all of his fans and inspired young designers have something to look forward to: Valentino: The Last Emperor. It's a feature-length documentary on the designer premiered at the 2008 Venice International Film Festival. The filmmakers shot over 250 hours of footage with exclusive, unprecedented access to Valentino and his entourage.
This documentary is like looking into the world of one of fashions forever lasting icons, who helped evolve the industry through the decades.
My copy just got here through the post and a review will be up soon, for now check out the trailer.

Appropriations 2005: Where's "The Scream" When You Really Need It?
Most political insiders would agree that the federal appropriations process is more art than science. But when Congress delivered the Fiscal Year (FY) 2005 catch-all spending bill, much of the artwork was missing. Funding for many domestic discretionary programs ended up as flat as the wall on which Edvard Munch's most famous painting once hung.
Although FY 2005 officially started on October 1, 2004, delays in congressional action on all but 2 of the 14 government spending bills left much of the work undone until well after the November 2nd election. Such delays are not uncommon in election years, as campaign schedules tend to drive the congressional calendar. Additionally, delaying the appropriations process can also provide cover for candidates from either party who would prefer not to be viewed as spendthrifts. However, the outcome of this election, which enhanced the Republican majority in both the House and Senate, heralds an era of increased fiscal conservancy that is likely to dominate funding with dramatic ramifications for psychologists in research, education and the public interest.
So while it's good news that the $388 billion omnibus spending bill was finally signed into law on December 8th, the finished product will leave many wanting. A record budget deficit, the unknowable costs of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the price of a planned social security overhaul have placed enormous pressures on the Bush administration to reign in domestic spending. As such, federal agency heads receiving funding at or around inflationary levels were the lucky ones in what appears to be a bleak forecast of future spending.
Funding for Psychological Science in 2005
Funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), provided by one of the two bills passed on schedule, reflects the nation's current priorities and the anticipation of future domestic terrorist attacks. However, despite recognition that humans perpetrate terrorism, the bill appears to focus mostly on microbes and molecules, as most of the funding is oriented toward countermeasures for weapons of mass destruction (i.e., chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear agents). Countering that apparent slight, will be the establishment of a University Based Center of Excellence in Behavioral and Social Aspects of Terrorism and Counter-Terrorism. Many APA members had submitted center proposals but the award had not yet been announced as this went to press. Additionally, threats to gut the DHS Scholars and Fellows program, where psychologists continue to compete well, were averted with a final appropriation of $70 million.
The Department of Defense (DoD) also received its FY 2005 funding via a freestanding, individual agency appropriations bill signed into law this summer. The good news is that the Science and Technology account, which funds basic and applied research, is up 10.3% over FY04 funding for a total of $12.77 billion. The bad news is that the increase does not "trickle down" proportionately to benefit DoD behavioral science programs. The FY 2005 bill contained more cuts to human-centered research, with basic behavioral research remaining essentially flat and both the Air Force and Army sustaining deep, detrimental cuts to their applied behavioral research programs. APA science policy staff worked with Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-HI) to insert language into the final defense appropriations conference report urging DoD to fully support and fund its behavioral research programs. But in the same report, the committee singled out Air Force basic human performance research for a $3 million cut.
NASA, which actually fared well compared to many of its sister agencies, benefited from an across the board 0.8% cut to all domestic programs. And while long-term, NASA R&D will have to address a range of psychology issues involved in trying to send humans to Mars, FY 2005 funding will focus on returning the space shuttle to flight, a Hubble telescope repair mission and continued construction of the International Space Station.
After accounting for the across-the-board cut, the National Science Foundation's (NSF's) total budget for FY 2005 will shrink by $105 million (1.9%) from the FY 2004 funding level to $5.47 billion. Although the majority of the cut will be absorbed by the Education and Human Resources Directorate, the research account was essentially frozen for the first time in almost 20 years, and the across-the-board cut puts it $30.8 million below FY 2004 funding.
In the final omnibus bill, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical and Prosthetics Research program (which includes support for most psychological research) received the Senate's funding mark of almost $406 million for FY05, which translates to a total of $402.3 million with the across-the-board cut. This represents a decrease of $3.24 million or 0.8% over FY04 funding for a program that has remained essentially flat in recent years.
Congressional supporters managed a small increase for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), but its appropriation will be whittled down by several across-the-board cuts. The agency's appropriation for FY 2005 is $28.5 billion, just short of a 3% increase. However, after the 0.8% across-the-board cut to domestic programs, plus a 0.25% tap to fund other Public Health Service programs (e.g., the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality), NIH is left with $27.9 billion. NIH must also find money for a federal employee pay raise of 3.5%, which was not part of the initial budget.
Total funding for the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) increased to $527 million. However, the research, development and dissemination portion of IES remains stagnant at $165 million, $20 million less than the president's budget.

So, Portland was amazing. I got two LGBQT books and i spent like 2 hours in the Gay and Lesbian section of Powells. I got some amazing clothes also.
Winter formal in more detail: So i got there all dressed up with my friend who i made come. He stood there awkwardly for all of the fast songs as i danced with my friends. Then Crush came on and I slow danced with him, which was awkward at first, but by the last time we slow danced we were a lot more comfortable and were actually like dancing really close instead of only kind of close. It was really special and amazing.
I'm happy for you. looks like you have a fairy godmother after all. :)

What is the prognosis for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)?
Irritable bowel syndrome is a chronic disease with symptoms that tend to come and go. The overall prognosis for patients with IBS depends on the severity and frequency of symptoms, and the patient's ability to control these symptoms, whether by diet, lifestyle changes, or medications.
There is no known cure for IBS, but there are many treatment options to reduce or eliminate symptoms. Good communication with your doctor is important to help you manage this condition.

NC Jobless Rate Down After Previous Month's UptickRALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina's unemployment rate edged back down to 9.6 percent in September, the same level as July after an uptick in August, data released Friday by the state Commerce Department showed. The last look at unemployment trends before Election Day showed the fractional drop again left North Carolina with the fifth-highest unemployment rate among states behind only Nevada, Rhode Island, California, and New Jersey. The number of people unemployed in North Carolina fell by 3,576 in September to 448,332. The number of people employed increased by 29,232 in September to 4.2 million and those either working or looking for work increased by 25,656. New unemployment claims totaled 42,362 in September, a 21 percent drop from August. Four out of ten initial claims in September involved workers who were expected to be recalled to their jobs. "Overall it's kind of a holding steady with just marginal increases in the direction we'd like to see it go but moving at a much slower pace than most people would like to see it go," Barton College economics professor John Bethune said. About 62,000 more workers were drawing paychecks than this time last year, when the state unemployment rate was 10.7 percent. While the state's jobless rate dropped to 9.4 percent from April through June, it has ticked up since then as employers took stock of their needs, sales, production demands, and the elections, now less than three weeks away. With tax rates and health insurance coverage and costs at the center of the presidential and congressional contests, employers are waiting to see whose policies prevail, Bethune said. "The business people I talk to say they don't know what a worker will cost them in 2013," he said. "There's just a lot of uncertainty and a lot of people are reluctant to hire or to make any bold moves at this point. People are waiting for the election to see what happens and then whoever wins more certainty will be established." John Patterson, 25, of Charlotte, doesn't have to look at unemployment numbers. He just knows things aren't good in North Carolina. Patterson recently graduated from the University of North Carolina-Charlotte with a business degree. He has been sending out resumes and had a handful of interviews, but he's still unemployed. Many of his school friends haven't found work either, and some have talked about leaving Charlotte to try to land a job, Patterson said. "I don't want to do that. I grew up here. But I didn't think I would still be living with my parents," he said. Patterson said he voted for President Barack Obama four years ago, but he's not sure he'll do the same this November. "Things really haven't changed, have they? I mean too many people are still out of work," Patterson said. Melanie Davidson, 52, of Charlotte, is a financial planner. She says the September's unemployment numbers show the state's economy is still struggling. That, she says, will hurt Obama in North Carolina. "I'm a Democrat and I support the president, but this doesn't help him here," she said. "We still have too many people without jobs." North Carolina's largest city is a major banking center, home to Bank of America Corp. and a regional hub for Wells Fargo, which bought Charlotte-based Wachovia Bank a few years ago. But the city lost thousands of good-paying financial sector jobs during the economic collapse. Davidson said some of her friends who worked at the banks were laid off when the financial institutions tried to cut costs. "I know the economy is coming back. Some of my friends have found work in Charlotte in the last few months. But it's still going to take some time for a full recovery," she said. ____ Associated Press writer Mitch Weiss in Charlotte contributed to this report. ___ Emery Dalesio can be reached at http://twitter.com/emerydalesio Most Popular |

EOS Bodies / Re: Lower Price Full Frame Camera [CR1]
« on: May 14, 2012, 07:00:22 PM »Excellent idea, but I'd rather have an EF-compatible mirrorless (With, god forbi, a FF sensor?)
Of topic: Why does the 5D X mockup have the top assembly from a 1D? Weird.
Because they're shooting for 1D weather sealing with the rumors, and removing the mode dial is required for that.
It says "less weather sealing"
Right, but the 5D X took over the rumors of the high megapixel non-integrated gripped pro body. This new cheap full frame would probably not be a 5D anything but a new line.

Review by prettyshine
Love this stuff. I put a tiny amount on my eyelid and barely rub where I put my eyeliner on the top & bottom lashes. Works like a charm, isn't too heavy, fabulous packaging. Much better than any other primers I've tried and I have tried many!

Nearly 3,000 attendees from around the world were in San Antonio for the latest in anti-fraud education, networking opportunities and more. Share the excitement of the 25th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference with the highlights, videos, photos and news from the event.
From education to networking, the ACFE Global Fraud Conference offers more benefits anti-fraud professionals won't find anywhere else. Watch the official conference video to see past attendees share what coming keeps them back year after year.
Register early for the 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference in Baltimore, June 14-19, 2015 and save $200.
Brian Krebs, author of KrebsOnSecurity, did not become a cybercrime expert overnight. As his website says, he wasn't trained in computer security and actually stumbled upon the field by accident. It wasn't until the former Washington Post reporter fell victim to Chinese hackers taking over his entire home network in 2001 that he found his true calling. As he writes, "It's an obsession that hasn't let up."
"Much of my knowledge about computers and Internet security comes from having cultivated regular and direct access to some of the smartest and most clueful geeks on the planet," Krebs said. "The rest I think probably comes from a willingness to take risks, make mistakes and learn from them."
You probably know Krebs as the guy who first discovered and reported on the Target and Home Depot data breaches. He was also the first to break the Neiman Marcus, Michael's, Jimmy Johns and Kmart breaches, as well as Heartland — the largest single data breach to date.
Before he began his work as the modern-day cyber Shaft, Krebs worked as a reporter for The Washington Post from 1995 to 2009, authoring blog posts for the Security Fix blog, as well as hundreds of stories for WashingtonPost.com and The Washington Post newspaper. He achieved notoriety investigating cybercriminals' illicit activities, uncovering massive data breaches and the theft of consumers' personal and financial information. Krebs was the first journalist to report on the malware that would later become known as Stuxnet.
So, how does he know about data breaches before the companies that are being breached do? How does he stay one step ahead? Don't worry; I'm not going to tell you to come to our 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference in Baltimore, Md., June 14-19, 2015, if you want to find out. But I will give you hints. He is passionate about his work, he knows how to follow an online trail and he stays one step ahead of the guys working night and day to steal another corporation's customer data.
In addition to speaking at next year's ACFE Global Fraud Conference, Krebs will also be accepting the ACFE's Guardian Award. The award is given annually to a journalist "whose determination, perseverance, and commitment to the truth have contributed significantly to the fight against fraud."
Read more about Krebs and follow his next discoveries at KrebsOnSecurity.com and check back regularly on FraudConference.com to get the latest conference updates. Also, be sure to keep your eyes open for Krebs' new book, Spam Nation, scheduled to come out November 18.
Tom Noonan, President and CEO of Visit Baltimore offers a warm welcome and good advice to attendees of the ACFE Global Fraud Conference.
We are thrilled to welcome you to Baltimore for the 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference. Whether you feast on steamed crabs, stroll through our diverse neighborhoods, take a boat cruise through the Inner Harbor, or catch an Orioles game at Camden Yards, we hope that your visit will be successful and enjoyable.
Here in Baltimore we are known for our beautiful Inner Harbor, distinct neighborhoods, unique museums and the best seafood on the East Coast. Baltimore is one of America's oldest cities and boasts a rich history that can be explored by visiting our various historical attractions, such as Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine, the birthplace of our national anthem.
The Baltimore Convention Center is conveniently located a short walk away from the Inner Harbor, the heart of the city. The free Charm City Circulator bus can also take you to Baltimore's various neighborhoods, including the Inner Harbor, Federal Hill, Mount Vernon and Fell's Point. These neighborhoods can also be discovered and explored easily by foot.
Among the newest attractions to visit are the Horseshoe Casino Baltimore, Baltimore's first and only state-of-the-art casino, and the Black Tip Reef and new Living Seashore exhibit at the National Aquarium, where you will encounter two large touch pools and come face-to-face with sea creatures.
We also invite you to visit our world-class museums, including the American Visionary Art Museum, the nation's only art museum dedicated to untrained visionary artists, the B&O Railroad Museum, or the Walters Art Museum and the Baltimore Museum of Art; both of which offer free general admission.
Exploring our city will no doubt work up your appetite. Some of our culinary highlights include the Little Italy neighborhood, fine dining in Harbor East, seafood in the Inner Harbor, or farm-to-table fare in Hampden. One particular menu item you do not want to miss while you are in Baltimore is the Maryland Blue Crab – we even have a section on our website devoted to finding the best crab restaurants in the city.
Don't forget to show your badge! Many participating restaurants and attractions are providing special offers for ACFE Global Fraud Conference attendees. Best wishes for a productive meeting and an enjoyable visit to Baltimore. Be sure to visit Baltimore.org to plan your trip and discover all that our city has to offer.
Many people do not realize that each year we get 100 percent of our conference concurrent speakers via proposals submitted through our online call for speakers. This is as true for the ACFE Global Fraud Conference as it is for our other regional conferences. Fundamentally we fill close to 120 speaking spots every year from the topics we receive online.
That said, we do get close to - if not more than - 500 proposals a year for those 120 spots. They come from members and non-members all over the world, and from experts in a variety of roles. We feature popular speakers from the past and introduce new speakers to our event, some even speaking for the first time.
There are no strict requirements for how the conference program is put together from these proposals but the formula for close consideration is simple: subject matter experts who are well-versed in their discipline with an advanced topic and able speak to our large group with confidence and professionalism. The last part happens on-site; the first we see in the quality of the proposal as submitted.
I encourage everyone to submit a proposal. Yes, there are disappointments in not being selected; I have had to turn away some quality topics and suggestions, as there are a limited number of spaces to fill. But I do encourage everyone to try and contribute to the professional advancement of their peers and fellow anti-fraud professionals.
I can guarantee only one thing. If you do not submit a topic, you will most definitely not speak at the conference. How will you know if you never try? Proposals must be submitted by November 1 for the 26th Annual ACFE Global Fraud Conference.
I think the ACFE has embraced the international flavor in its membership, which is very important because when you're involved in investigations, some of them may take you across borders."
— Malcolm B. Reid, CFE, CPP, MBCI, CBCP, President of the Trinidad and Tobago Chapter

PUNXSUTAWNEY — The Punxsy Chucks' strong effort on the glass Monday night led to a big 60-37 win over the rival Brookville Raiders.
After falling 57-49 to Bradford Friday night, Punxsy head coach Dirk Neal was unsure how his players would respond to face Brookville Monday night.
"It was a real concern with players being players. We broke down the Bradford tape yesterday (Sunday), and addressed some issues to get better," said Neal. "We had a good practice and the guys were upbeat. We wanted to give a good effort and forget about last Friday."
WESTOVER — The temperatures may have been dropping Monday night, but the Lady Chucks' shooting percentage and play on the court was rising.
Punxsy jumped out early and kept building its lead as the game went on to make quick work of host Harmony, 67-22, in Westover.
"The girls played solid for 32 minutes on both ends of the floor," explained Lady Chucks head coach Randy Reitz. "The kids shot the ball really well inside and outside. We also did a nice job on the break."
The Lady Chucks (9-6) scored eight of the opening 10 points of the contest and never looked back.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — It was the end of an era at the Presbyterian Church in Punxsutawney, as the longtime clerk of the session, Guy Lester, passed the torch to his successor Doug Chambers on Sunday.
Lester, who had been the magisterial judge in Punxsutawney, has held the position of clerk of session for the Presbyterian Church for more than 20 years and has been a stabilizing force during times of transition, said the Rev. Brett Swanson, pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Punxsutawney.
"Guy is a committed servant, which comes along once a generation for this kind of church," he said.
BIG RUN — Big Run Borough Council voted to rent the Big Run War Memorial for free to non-profit organizations that are based in Big Run.
Council approved a motion to allow Big Run-based non-profit organizations to use the Big Run War Memorial rent-free for a one-day-only event, such as meetings, said Nick Lantz, Big Run Borough Council president.
Lantz said the groups that are included in the motion for using the building for free are: Big Run VFW, winter/summer recreation programs, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and the Beta Sorority.
On Monday, Jeff Tech hosted nine District SkillsUSA competitions.
Clearfield CCTC was the main hosting school for the year, so most of the students from Jeff Tech went there to compete.
However, Jeff Tech played host to the competitions for automotive service technology, building maintenance technology, commercial baking, crime scene investigation, criminal justice, customer service, precision machining and technical drafting.

Concelebration 8
It is the practice of the simultaneous recitation of the Eucharistic Prayer which seals and guarantees the reality that these presbyters are severally as well as corporately offering the Holy Sacrifice, and not merely occupying a pompously elevated position in the Sanctuary. It teaches that the Priesthood is not only a corporate charism but also a deeply personal one, indelibly imprinted on the soul of each priest. Priesthood is not only a necessary function in the Body of Christ; it also defines and structures how the priest is a Christian. I know that among Byzantines, in some places the concelebrating priests to not join in the Prayer, but our Western practice is deeply fitting. Moreover, it states that a priest concelebrating is doing exactly the same thing as a priest saying a Private Mass, and thus in turn defends the wholesome Western tradition of the Private Mass. Those are to be resisted who dislike both Concelebration and Private Masses on the ground that the Priesthood is merely functional and utilitarian. As one goes down this path one's ultimate destination is the Protestant heresy that the community may commission any one of its members to discharge this function; a heresy not unknown among liberal Roman Catholics.
Unlike the SSPX and unlike the Liberals, I believe that both Concelebration and the Private Mass are precious and profoundly edifying gifts from God in our Western tradition. I believe that we need to develop a new praxis with regard to the godly and sensible use of both of these within our priestly ministries; and that, in this regard, the generation since the Council has been a generation wasted.
This is not the place to attempt to guess what such a new praxis may ultimately look like. Let me just share one thought. In our pilgrimage to Lourdes, we priests, not able to concelebrate the International Mass with Walter Kasper as, surely, we would have liked, sat 'in choir'; a decent practice validated by custom. But how much more edifying if, previously, we had each said a private mass at one of the fifteen altars in the Rosary Basilica?

And indeed Father... why didn't you all offer a private Mass... were these Altars not available or did nobody think to ask...?!

I think it rather unfair for you too identify a disapproval for concelebration with elegance to the SSPX. I am a bi-ritual (EF preferred) Catholic and have never once been to such a service but I totally disprove of concelebration. I see no real value in it for the Roman Rite - we did without it for 1000 years (except at ordinations) and I think history shows that those 1000 were pretty good ones, Concelebration is just one Mass, so rather than saying 40-50 Masses every day modern Monasteries, for example, say a mere one or two! Concelebration is not the daily Mass of a priest, as far as I can see. Think of all the graces being missed. This is not to mention the undermining of priestly identity which happens in some communities.
Besides concelebration is one of a myriad of 'easternisations' in the New Rite. All of which are incongruous with the Latin Rite and are an invasion of our traditions. I can give the deacons not kneeling for the consecration as a specific example of this. - 01 November, 2008

Re: 'Easternisations' in the New Rite. So much for the Church learning to breathe on both lungs, East & West (as the late Pope JPII hoped). Presumably christian thinks that the Latin Church has nothing to learn from the Christian East. I'm not sure that a pure Latin rite tradition devoid of Eastern influences exists ... after all, Christianity itself is a Near Eastern cult in its origins. Our Lady did not sing the Magnificat in Latin! And the Mass was celebrated in Greek before it was celebrated in Latin.
- 02 November, 2008
- Christian said...
While I would not deny the obvious eastern influences that you point out I would also point out myself that the east has for the past few decades been quite obsessed with the removal of 'Latinisations' and that it is surely right that we should guard against the influence of eastern only traditions on our own rite. Our rite is both ancient and orthodox and needs no such interpolations.

Allergy & Asthma Day Capitol Hill 2012
On April 27, 2012 @ 12:57 pm In All Articles,Featured
AANMA's 15th annual Allergy & Asthma Day Capitol Hill paid tribute to research and innovative technologies that make a difference in the everyday lives of America's families with allergies, asthma, anaphylaxis and COPD – and called on Congress to ensure patient access to evidence-based care based on National Institutes of Health asthma and food allergy guidelines.
"It wasn't that long ago when asthma and severe allergies, like anaphylaxis, were treated with fumigating powders, caustic vapors, opium and stramonium cigarettes," said AANMA founder and president Nancy Sander. "Don't let healthcare cost-cutting send us back into the dark ages."

Check out some comments we've received from participants of Allergy & Asthma Day Capitol Hill:
(Note: Cindy Tervalon of Melrose, Massachusetts, is the mother of Cassandra, who along with Mia Catalini designed the Wear-ever Necklace for AANMA's "Ultimate Inhaler Contest." Cassandra and Mia were named honorable mention winners and invited to AADCH.)
Wow, What a TRIP! Here in Melrose, we are referring to it as 'The Trip of a Lifetime.' Thank you so very much for making the entire two days so special for Cassandra and the other girls. Everyone at AANMA really was extraordinary! I believe all four girls left with more confidence and a sense of pride and joy. What more can we do for young people!
Thank you so very much for taking the time to have a photo autographed by Charles Thiel for her. She will be so excited and will cherish it forever. And thank you for the link to the bracelets [6]. I will spread the word and get everyone we know to purchase a bracelet and support AANMA.
Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you in the future.
All my best,
Cindy Tervalon
Great job and BRAVO!

Impress is an app that's easy to use. After installing it on my iPod Touch I quickly grabbed a picture (iPhone users have the option to shoot a picture too) and started painting. I was impressed with how easy it is to change the brushes, and the variety that these adjustments give the user.
When you're painting you can zoom in and move around the picture with the pinch control. There are about 6 brushes or so which can be adjusted by moving the crosshairs around the screen. The settings are such that you can get almost any kind of effect you want out of a brush. If you make a mistake there's an erase mode available too.
It was really easy to start painting with this app. I grabbed a picture of my night stand from my iPod and started working on it. Don't ask me why I grabbed this one, I've just always liked this picture for some strange reason. The way the app chooses the colors automatically is nice. I like not having to worry about that. I also worked on a picture of the old Transformer Jetfire (not the new one) that I found. This was cool too, but I didn't post it here because wasn't patient enough for all of the details.
There are a couple of things I would like to see added as Impress develops. It would be nice to add layers, and the ability to add text. I think these things can be done without ruining the simplicity of the app. Maybe revising the way zoom and painting are handled would be recommended too. Oftentimes I accidentally painted when zooming or moving the picture around, which then required me to move to Erase mode.
Impress, for what it's designed to do, is quite impressive. It's no Brushes, but it's not trying to be. It's made so that anyone can make a nice looking painting with just a little bit of time and patience. Impress's aim is simplicity and it hits the mark. It's a great app and you can't go wrong for only $0.99.

Four ex-Blackwater security guards seek dismissal of charges of killing Iraq civilians One of four charged is former Marine from Rochester
Saturday, April 5, 2014
WASHINGTON — A former Blackwater security guard and decorated Marine from Rochester is one of four American former security contractors who may face trial for participating in a deadly shooting of civilians during an Iraqi War incident.
Federal prosecutors dismissed charges against a fifth man originally charged in the case, ex-Marine Donald Ball of West Valley City, Utah.
The guards were hired to clear the way for a convoy of U.S. State Department vehicles ,carrying diplomats for a meeting with officials of the Agency for International Development.
Prosecutors have not yet filed a response, and a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Washington declined to comment on the motion earlier this week.
In a 2010 interview with Foster's Daily Democrat, Evan Liberty's attorney said his client had to put his life "on hold" to deal with the legal issues. Attorney Bill Coffield said Liberty was attending school but declined to say where. |

CALIFORNIA Memory was way too good for his rivals in the Hong Kong Cup, but Alcopop showed he wasn't out of place on the world stage.
Thanks to a rails hugging ride by Craig Williams, Alcopop surged late to grab third place, two and three-quarter lengths behind California Memory, and earn Jake Stephens and connections $300,000.
What made the performance even more meritorious was that the eight-year-old dawdled out of the stalls to sit a conspicuous last.
Williams decided there was no point to do anything else but ride for luck and he stuck to that game plan and it paid dividends.
While California Memory was untroubled to take out the Group 1, Alcopop ran home his final in about 46 seconds.
Stephens told TVN's Bruce Clark that Alcopop will not campaign in Australia or Dubai during the autumn, but will return in the spring.
Carlton House, owned by Her Majesty The Queen, was passed by Alcopop over the concluding stages as he was relegated to finish sixth.

I am researching the history of William C. HOUSTON who was born in Antrim, Ireland approximately 1822. He came to America and settled down in Philadelphia and later purchased a farm in South Bend, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania. He was married to Lydia Jane SNYDER. They had ten children. One of their sons, Joshua Houston, settled in Apollo, Armstrong County, PA and lived their until his death in October, 1926. One of their daughters, Francine (Fanny), married Jeremia George and they lived in Girty, Armstrong County, PA until their deaths. Another of their sons, Andrew, settled in Ohio. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who knows of the Houstons and/or their decendents. |
