12/23/1996 - South Carolina Naval Brig Under Investigation for Sexual and Racial Harassment
The Navy and Air Force are investigating charges of sex and race harassment at the Charleston Naval Weapons Station. The Post and Courier papers said they received two written Navy reports indicating a climate of racial and sexual tension at the brig. The report did not recommend immediate punishment for the military prison's Navy Commander George Admire, but it did acknowledge that he might not be able to resume his post beyond a scheduled command change in April.
12/23/1996 - Serial Sexual Harassment in the Workplace Exposed
The Washington Post reported Sunday, December 22, on a number of sexual harassment cases in the workforce. One major incident of "serial" sexual harassment in which a harasser's actions impact numerous women involved Dan Wassong, chief executive of cosmetic company Del Laboratories. After 15 women told the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission that Wassong had asked them for oral sex, assaulted them, urinated with the restroom door open, worked in his underwear and used offensive language, the EEOC filed a lawsuit against Del and Wassong alleging that Del tolerated the harassment waged by Wassong. Without admitting wrongdoing, Del settled the case in 1995 for $1.2 million.
In another case of serial sexual harassment, women at Baker and McKenzie, the largest law firm in the U.S., complained that partner Martin Greenstein inappropriately touched them, pressured them for sex, made sexual remarks, and caused their ultimate resignation. A judge significantly reduced the $7 million settlement granted to the secretary who was harassed by Greenstein after he was transferred to another office; Baker and McKenzie have appealed the verdict with a decision expected next year. A number of witnesses testified that Greenstein talked about hot-tubbing and made other inappropriate gestures or comments, but lawyers for Baker and McKenzie expect further reduction of the settlement.
Though Baker and McKenzie terminated Greenstein in 1993, the Post reports that many companies prefer to allow harassers to stay on than risk an accusation of wrongful termination. Sexual harassment expert Freada Klein said that she has been told by companies who pay off women who bring complaints, "this is the cost of doing business ... this guy brings in millions of dollars in business a year," refusing to acknowledge the cost to the women who are harassed.
12/23/1996 - Women Demand Resignation of Indiana Representative from Army Sex Scandal Panel
Vice President of the National Organization for Women Karen Johnson said that Rep. Steven Buyer (R-Indiana) should step down from the Congressional panel investigating claims of pervasive sexual harassment at Aberdeen Proving Ground's Ordnance Center in Maryland. Buyer, an Army Reserve major, said that the scandal was the result of a "few bad apples." Johnson said Buyer's Army position represented a conflict of interest.
12/23/1996 - Curious George Co-creator Dies at Age 90
Margret E. Rey, part of the husband and wife team which created the mythical Curious George died on December 22nd in her Cambridge home. She had suffered a heart attack three weeks earlier. She helped create the monkey character while she and her husband were living in Paris during the 1930s. They smuggled an unpublished manuscript out of France when they escaped before Hitler's occupation. Houghton Mifflin published the first story in 1941; the Reys subsequently wrote six more books about Curious George's antics. Margret went on to write 28 Curious George books with Alan J. Shalleck.
Born in Germany, Rey studied at the Bauhaus, the Academy of Art in Duesseldorf and at an art school in Berlin. She held her first one-woman watercolor show in Berlin in the early 1920s. She later worked as a newspaper reporter, an advertising copywriter and photographer. Making her way to New York after escaping Paris with her husband, Rey went on to create more children's books and oversee the Curious merchandising projects. Moving to Cambridge in 1971, she became a large benefactor: donating $1 million each to the Boston Public Library and the Beth Israel Hospital's Center for Alternative Medicine for Research.
12/20/1996 - Clinton Appoints Alexis Herman to Secretary of Labor
Clinton has appointed his close aide, Alexis Herman, to become the Secretary of the Department of Labor. Herman has previously served as the Director of the Women's Bureau in President Carter's Labor Department and has served as the vice-chair for the Democratic National Committee. She has most recently served as the White House public liaison, where she enjoys a close working relationship with the president.
This appointment brings Clinton's overall appointment of women number to eight, larger than any previous administration. Other female appointments include: Janet Reno, Attorney General; Madeleine Albright, Secretary of State; Donna Shalala, Department of Health and Human Service; Janet Yellen, Chief Economic Advisor; Carol Browner, Environmental Protection Agency; Aida Alvarez, Small Business Administration and Charlene Borshefsky to U.S. Trade Representative.
12/20/1996 - Citadel Makes Changes to Address Hazing Incidents
The Citadel has announced that it plans to station overnight, adult supervisors to all barracks. This change, taking effect next month, was instituted to try and prevent the hazing incident which happened to two female cadets this past semester. The women reported the hazing to their student cadet supervisors but the supervisors did not take any action. The Citadel claims that the women could have reported the incidents to active-duty military officers assigned to their company, but failed to do so. The women's parents claim that they called school officials several times. The Citadel and FBI are both looking into the incidents and plan to discipline any adult officers if warranted.
12/20/1996 - Clinton Considers Changes to Welfare Legislation
Clinton aides helping the President with the 1997 budget have disclosed plans to increase some welfare programs radically cut in last year's welfare legislation. The plans include an additional $13 billion, aimed mainly at aiding legal immigrants, especially immigrant children and disabled immigrants. The plan also includes plans to give indigent people with high housing costs continued food stamps. Under the planned changes, persons who are actively looking for jobs but cannot find them will also be allowed to continue receiving food stamps. Earlier, leaks in the administration warned that the President's budget included $1 billion in cuts to housing for the poor. The President has apparently decided against the cuts, however.
The Administration expects that any changes will be met with strong opposition from a Republican-led Congress and is explicit in its approval for the overall direction and changes in the 1995 Welfare Reform legislation. Support for the changes, however, is expected to come from moderate GOP Governors whose state's are starting to feel the adverse effects of the drastic welfare cuts.
12/19/1996 - VOA Sex Discrimination Suit Coming to Close
Voice of America, a government sponsored overseas radio broadcasting program, faces sex discrimination claims in excess of $500 million dollars. Twelve years ago, a federal judge ruled that VOA discriminated against women in its hiring practices. Now, a special master, law professor Stephen A. Saltzburg, is in the process of deciding how much, if any, each of the 1,100 women bringing claims against VOA will be awarded. So far, he has awarded eight women a total of $4.7 million and denied claims to two others. On top of the monetary awards, the government must set up retirement accounts for all the women who have successful claims. The government has failed twice in getting a Federal Appeals Court to overturn the case and is now considering appealing directly to the Supreme Court.
The discrimination allegedly occurred between 1974 and 1984. It included hiring discrimination in various fields within VOA, such as writer/editor, foreign language broadcasters, foreign information or production specialists, and radio broadcast or electric technicians. One woman, Lynn Goldman Barrett, sent in an application along with her husband; they had essentially the same experience, having co-owned Mirasound Studios Inc. He was given a job as a recording technician immediately and she was not, even though there were plenty of job openings at VOA. At the first hearing, the government claimed it never received her application, even though it was sent in the same package as her husband's. Then she reapplied in 1982 and the government claimed she was not qualified. She protested and then was told she would need to fill out an additional form, which did not exist. Saltzburg wrote in his opinion, awarding her $562,481, "Women and men were treated differently. There were openings for 'warm bodies' as long as those bodies were male."
12/19/1996 - Social Security Cuts Disproportionally Affect Women
A proposed plan to base Social Security on an average of 38 instead of 35 years work will disproportionally hurt women. An Advisory Council on Social Security plans to deal with cuts including the above change in calculating benefits. Only 15% of women have been in the workforce for an average of 38 years while 57% of men have worked that long. Women often take years off of work to raise children and this affects their average work years. Edith U. Fierst, a council member, commented, "It would be unfortunate if mothers, pressured by fear of poverty in old age, gave up opportunities to stay at home with young children...In an ideal world the father of her children would take care of the mother's retirement needs..." However, many fathers are absent and when couples divorce, the woman generally loses the right to share her husband's retirement benefits. Fierst notes that government statistics show that the largest segment of the poor elderly are widows, who have a poverty rate in excess of 40%.
12/19/1996 - Clinton to Appoint Janet Yellen Council of Economic Advisors Chair
President Clinton has offered the Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors, the panel which advises the President on economic issues to Brown (B.S.) and Yale (Ph.D.) University Graduate Janet Yellen. Yellen, who has taught economics at Harvard, London School of Economics and at Berkeley, has most recently served on the Federal Reserve board. Born in Brooklyn, New York, she is married with one child.
Clinton continues to meet today with outgoing Chief of Staff Leon Panetta, current Chief of Staff Irksine Bowles and Vice-President Al Gore to finalize his appointments for a December 20th press conference. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission member Elizabeth Moller is a strong possibility for Energy Secretary. Clinton aide Alexis Herman and Representative Esteban Torres (D-CA) are both being considered for Secretary of Labor.
12/19/1996 - Woolf and Bloomsbury Group Biographer, Quentin Bell, Dies at 86
Viriginia Woolf's nephew and biographer Quentin Bell died on December 15th in England. Born to Woolf's older sister, Vanessa Bell, Bell spent his childhood with the now legendary Bloomsbury group and eventually became its most sensitive biographer. Growing up with such figures as E.M. Forster, John Maynard Keynes, Vita Sackville-West, and Virigina Woolf, Bell, in his fair-minded writing, brought the group to life. He once described a visit from Woolf as, "a warm capricious breeze blowing in from the southwest and bringing with it a kind of amazed joy." He also revealed, for the first time, that her two brothers had sexually molested her during her childhood. And, in Bloomsbury Recalled he expressed anger and disappointment at his father's fascist leanings.
12/19/1996 - Doctor Gives Up License Amid Re-newed Charges of Sexually Abusing Female Patients
A Somerset, Kentucky doctor who has twice been on probation for allegedly sexually abusing female patients, has given up his license amid new charges. The Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure required a nurse to monitor the examinations because Dr. Russell C. Holtzclaw had been placed on probation in 1987 and 1993 for sexual misconduct. He examined a 17-year-old's breast and body without the nurse monitor and made inappropriate comments about her body during the examination. Holtzclaw is also under investigation for his financial dealings with two elderly and now deceased female patients. He had been placed on probation for three years in 1987 because of a patient's complaint of sexual misconduct. He was again placed on probation in 1993 for allegedly attempting to rape and sexually abuse a patient while exposing himself to her. He later gave the woman's mother $5000 to keep quiet about the incident. In the same year, three other patients filed complaints of sexual misconduct.
12/18/1996 - New Allegations of Hazing at Citadel
Attorneys for two women cadets at the Citadel released new information on recent hazing incidents. The attorneys claim that male cadets sprayed the women with nail polish and set their clothes on fire, not once, but three times within the past two months. Male cadets also allegedly entered the female cadet's rooms late at night, sung them sexually explicit songs and forced them to drink alcoholic beverages. One recruit, Jeanie Mentavlos, was forced to drop her pants to reveal a hidden tape recorder. Her attorney, Tim Kulp, claims that the women decided to record the harassment because they, "knew no one would believe them as to the fact the line had been crossed."
The female cadets did report the harassment to cadet officers, but the officers ignored their complaints. Mentavlos' older brother Michael, a senior at the academy, proceeded with two other senior cadets to report the harassment to school officials. The schools has suspended two cadets and relieved five others of military duty pending the outcome of a full investigation. The school also installed alarm buttons in the women's room which, if pushed, sound in a guard's room. The two harassed women are currently living off campus during finals weeks because of safety fears. The two other women cadets, who are in a different company, have remained on campus and have not reported any harassment.

12/18/1996 - Congressman in Charge of Army Sexual Harassment Investigation Graduated from Citadel
The Congressman in charge of the investigation of the Army's sexual harassment scandal, Representive Steve Buyer (R-IN), graduated from the then all-male military college The Citadel, has served in the United States Army and continues to serve in the Army reserves. In 1995, while the Citadel was in the midst of a legal challenge of its state-funded all-male tradition, it awarded Buyer as its Man of the Year. Given his career in the military, many inside and outside of the military have begun to question his objectivity. Karen Johnson, vice-president of the National Organization for Women and a retired Air Force Lietenant Colonel commented last week to the Indianapolis Star, "When you're in the military as Buyer still is, whether male or female,your first loyalty is there and never will you paint it in a bad light. As a female who was in uniform for 20 years, I think the problem is large, serious, and Aberdeen is just beginning."
Aberdeen refers to the base where 25 drill sergeants are under investigation for sexual harassment and a captain and drill instructor have already been charged with rape and obstruction of justice. Buyer has already said that he believes the problem with the military is due to "a few bad apples" and not to a widespread problem in the Army. His solution to the problem - more military spending. He believes the problem is due to a breakdown in the Army's chain of command, itself a result of cuts in military spending. A 1995 survey by the defense department found that sixty percent of women in the military reported being harassed while on duty. This, and other scandals such as the Tailhook incident, counters Buyer's statements. Johnson also commented, "No commander wants to look bad. They have an investment in looking good, so they often talk an accuser out of a complaint. We recommend a system of reporting outside of the chain of command."
12/18/1996 - Texaco Plans to Diversify Workforce
The Wall Street Journal reports December 18th that a new Texaco program would expand the amount of business, by fifty percent, that it does with minority-owned companies. Texaco also plans to increase its minority workforce. The company settled a discrimination lawsuit last month for $176.1 million. When it did so, the company also promised to increase the percentage of minorities on their payroll from 23 to 29 percent.
12/17/1996 - Prop. 209 Blocked Pending Court Ruling
San Francisco U.S. District Judge Thelton Henderson extended the temporary restraining order on the anti-affirmative action initiative Prop. 209 by one week. The order prohibits either CA. Governor Pete Wilson or Attorney General Dan Lungren from implementing the measure until December 23rd. On the 23rd, Henderson will decide whether or not to grant a preliminary injunction freezing 209 until a trial is held to determine the measure's constitutionality.
California voters narrowly passed this deceptive measure in November by a 54 to 46 margin. Funded by right-wing foundations, contractors and conservative scholars, the initiative will wipe out equal opportunity programs for women and people of color. Opponents of the initiative are currently suing, claiming that it is unconstitutional because it discriminates against women and people of color.
12/17/1996 - Second Citadel Cadet Suspended, Two Female Cadets Move Off Campus
The Citadel has suspended a second cadet in an incident involving the hazing of two female cadets. The charges of hazing include that one woman was thrown up against a wall and hit in the head with a rifle, while another woman's clothes were sprayed with nail polish and set on fire. Five other male cadets have been relieved of military duty pending an investigation. Due to security concerns, the two women will live off campus during finals week and wear civilian clothes. While on campus, they are restricted to the computer lab, the library and their classrooms. The women's lawyers had wanted them transferred to an infirmary on campus, but the school said no space existed there for them. Paul Gibson, a lawyer for the women's families commented that keeping the women off campus, away from training and without the ability to wear uniform was unfair.
12/17/1996 - Kentucky Paper Appoints First Female Editor
After serving for fifteen months as editor of Lexington's Herald-Leader newspaper, Pam Luecke became the editor and vice-president of the paper on December 16th. Luecke moved to Kentucky in 1979 and worked for the Louisville Courier-Journal and Times as a business reporter, business editor and regional editor. She contributed to The Courier-Journal's Pulitzer Prize winning series on the 1988 Carrollton bus crush. She moved to Connecticut in 1989 and worked as the assistant managing editor/metro and deputy managing editor of The Hartford Courant for six years. She served as the supervising editor for the Courant's Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation of the Hubble space telescope.
In 1995 Luecke moved back to Kentucky, this time serving as the editor of the editorial pages for Lexington's Herald Leader. Luecke also served as a Bagehot Fellow in economic journalism at Columbia University from 1986 to 1987.
Luecke commented on her promotion as the paper's first ever female editor that, "I'm enormously proud of that accomplishment. There aren't enough women in leadership positions in general. I hope maybe in some way I can be a role model for other young women considering getting into journalism."
12/17/1996 - Women Executives Earning More, But Not As Much As Male Counterparts
Though women continue to earn only 71 one cents to the male dollar, women executives are making some headway. A new Working Women Magazine report has found that the twenty highest paid female executives all earn over $1 million. Last year, only seven of the twenty highest paid women executives earned $1 million or more. The highest paid woman, Linda Wachner, earns $11.16 million for heading Warnaco-Authentic Fitness. Carol St. Mark, President of Pitney Bowes Business Services, rounds out the top twenty with $1.33 million. Even in executive positions however, women still earn less than men. According to Businnessweek Magazine's list of top twenty executives, Lawrence Coss earned $65.5 million in salary and bonuses for heading Green Tree Financial. And Wayne Calloway rounded up the top twenty by earning $11.20 million for heading up Pepsi Co.
12/17/1996 - Supreme Court Rules in Parental Appeals Case
The Supreme Court voted 6 to 3 on December 16th that a state can not bar a mother from appealing a custody ruling terminating her parental rights simply because she can't afford the involved court fees. The Court has required that fees be waived for indigents in criminal appeals, but had not extended that right to civil cases. Writing for the majority, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg ruled that states could not, "bolt the door to equal justice" because of poverty. She continued, "Choices about marriage, family life and the upbringing of children are among associational rights the court has ranked as of basic importance in our society. Few consequences of judicial action are so grave as the severance of natural family ties."
The case involves Melissa Brooks, who lost all rights to visit her son and daughter after a judge ruled that she had not kept up custody payments. She and her husband, divorced in 1992 and he won custody of the two children. He remarried three months later and a year later petitioned a court to terminate Brooks parental rights. She appealed and paid a $100 filing fee, but could not afford the over $2,400 in other court fees.
12/16/1996 - Citadel Women's Clothes Set on Fire
The Citadel Military College has suspended one cadet and relieved three others of military duty pending an investigation into a hazing incident involving two female cadets. The male cadets allegedly sprayed the women's clothes with a flammable liquid and then set them on fire. State Law Enforcement and the FBI are also investigating claims of verbal and physical threats against the female cadets. Chief of the State Law Enforcement, Robert M. Stewart commented that the police were looking into, "three categories. One is physical abuse, which may constitute hazing under state law. The second is threats of harm between students, and the third is flammable liquid being placed on articles of clothing being worn by two female freshman cadets, then ignited." The women did not report the situation to their superior officers, but it came to light after they told others who then reported it to a higher command. The Citadel admitted four women this year after a similar all-men military college, the Virginia Military Institute, was deemed unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court.
12/16/1996 - O'Leary Leaves Legacy at Energy Department
Secretary of Energy Hazel O'Leary has worked hard to open up the secret operations of the Energy Department. O'Leary exposed to the public until now secret information on human radiation experiments, stockpiles of plutonium and uranium and about forty years worth of pollution due to weapon's development. Believing that companies get away with spending large amounts of money and polluting superfluously, O'Leary began inviting environmentalists and anti-nuclear activists to Energy Department meetings. O'Leary has also streamlined the department's operating budget, lowering it from $19.3 billion and to $16.5 billion.
Commenting on reports that she engaged in excessive and expensive travel, O'Leary said, "There have got to be lots of people who resent me and resent the changes here. The attacks earlier on were on [senior aides] Ken Luongo and Dan Reicher. Then the attacks were on the Department of Energy. When we overcame those attacks, there wasn't anybody left except me." She also commented, "it amazes me that we got clipped on this stuff when the cost of the travel I've done equates to about the cost of the travel anyone else has done on trips of that size."
12/16/1996 - Women Lobby for Political Seat in Pakistan
Pakistanian women and human rights activists have asked political parties to field at least thirty percent women for the upcoming February 3rd general election. Two hundred organizations and over 500 individuals have asked the 23 parties to allow women run for office. This includes financial backing and collaboration on a constitutional amendment restoring reserved seats for women.
The 1973 Constitution envisioned such reserved seats for women but they have never truly come to pass. After the fourth election in 1993, only four women held seats in the 217 member National Assembly.
12/16/1996 - Planned Parenthood Opposes New York State Assembly Ban on D&X Abortions
Planned Parenthood Federation of America has come out in strong opposition to a proposed attempt in the New York State Assembly to ban D&X abortions. The legislation does not make an exceptions to save the woman's life and is therefore most likely unconstitutional. It also would send doctors to jail for providing the women with the procedure.
Gloria Feldt, president of Planned Parenthood, commented, "We need to remember that, despite medical breakthroughs, there are still tragic instances when a fetus develops without a brain or internal organs. That was the case with Vikki Stella, a diabetic mother of two who was able to end her doomed pregnancy with this safe procedure and then go on to have Nicholas, a healthy baby boy. I do not understand how politicians in Albany could think they know more about Vikki Stella's health than her family and her doctor. These are difficult, personal decisions that belong to families and not the government."

lets say i have 30% life steal, but im still killing myself. why?
Life steal is 30% of damage post mitigation. Thornmail deals 30% of unmitigated damage. If your auto-attack deals 300 damage and the thornmail user has 200 armor, your attack will deal 100 damage to the target. 30% life steal then results you in healing for 30 health. Thornmail would deal 30% of 300, or 90 damage. This 90 damage is reduced by magic resist, resulting in 69 damage for a base MR of 30.
That doesent seem very fair to me. edit, i had a last whisper btw
If thornmail applied 30% of post-mitigated damage, it would have terrible synergy with itself. It would mean that the more armor you have, the less damage it would do, essentially punishing the player for getting armor.
Yeah, what WonderBoy said. If it reflected damage after armor, then its own armor would reduce the damage it deals... A good counter to Thornmail is Bloodthirstier + Maw of Malmortius + Last Whisper. And that is a good build. I play my Tryndamere sleeper OP... I act like a noob all of early game, and then when I finally arrive to the party I've already counter Thornmail before they buy it. And even if I do well early game, I get the same build. It's a noobtrap to focus entirely on damage just because you're red.
Also magic resist
DoS BoSS
tanky dps do great vs it since most their dmg results in both physical, their own ad, and magical, from the items wits end and madred's bloodrazer. not only that TDPS have a ton of utilities; such as frozen mallet, wriggles -> blood thirster, maw of malmortius, force of nature, spirit visage, "atmog", banshee's veil, guardian angel. thornmail is mostly for a team that is AD dominating without much defense. i used to think picking up 2 bloodthirsters would solve my problem when i play AD carry also... but nope, i still melt when hitting them =C
so then does a vamp scepter steal 10% of total ad every hit,or 10% of actual damage dealt?

"Sticks with you"
I wasn't sure how I felt about it as I was "reading" it. But as time passes I find myself thinking of plot points and scenes again and again. It definitely grew on me.
"Under the Bed?"
I read somewhere they found this unfinished under his bed after he died. I can believe that. It's a good decent read. But not as good as I've come to expect from him.
"A Great Listen"
Great book. Great narration. Even if you've already seen the movie, this would be a good read as there is a lot of good fun that didn't make it into the movie.
"Too Difficult to Follow as a Dramatization"
It was too difficult for me to follow the plot as a dramatization. Perhaps if I already knew the story.
"Ok Book. Boring Narrator."
The story itself was pretty much what I expected from a book "written" by a character from a TV show. Light entertainment. The narrator had a very small range of voices, so it was often difficult to tell which character was speaking - even if the character was male or female.
"A good choice for an audiobook"
It was very easy to follow the plot in this audiobook. Just a few characters to keep track of. I'm not really a big Stephen King fan, but this was a decent read.

Dr Collins Nyenze, President of the Indian Universities Alumni Association of Nigeria, on Monday said that about 28,732 Nigerians have been educated in various Indian Colleges and Universities.
Nyenze disclosed this to NAN on the sidelines of a farewell party organised by the association for the outgoing Head of the Lagos Office of the High Commission of India, Mrs Rani Malick.
"From my association's record so far, not less than 28,732 Nigerians have been educated in various Indian Colleges and Universities.
"And today, most of us are happy that we had the opportunities to study in these educational institutions.
"These Indian institutions had the facilities and learning environment that allowed us to become who we are today.
"Most of us who studied in these Indian colleges and universities are today doing well in our various fields and we are happy with ourselves," he said.
The association's president said that such Nigerians, with various areas of specialization, were presently contributing to Nigeria's development, as well as the growth of their immediate communities.
Nyenze said that they had over the years distinguished themselves in accounting, political science, public administration, medicine, pharmacy, engineering and other fields, across Nigeria.
He, therefore, urged the Federal Government to embrace plans by Indian colleges and universities to establish their institutions in Nigeria.
Nyenze expressed confidence in the facilities and educational standards of the Indian colleges and universities.
"It is my firm belief that the establishment of Indian colleges and universities in Nigeria will make young Nigerians have access to qualitative education.
"I strongly believe that their coming will open a new educational perspective to young Nigerians," he added.

A couple of weeks ago Facebook announced it was rolling out Verified Profiles and Pages. This move is designed to "help you be sure that the pages are who they claim to be."
In May, 2013, The Huffington Post reported that more than 10 percent of Facebook's audience is "not human. Over 100 million active Facebook users are pets, objects or brands." And of course there are the fake accounts for people that really don't exist. Facebook has long been aware of this issue and knows of the inaccuracy in user estimates.
Facebook blogged that Verified Pages belong to a "small group of prominent public figures" such as celebrities, journalists, popular brands and businesses and government officials with a high following. These entities will show a blue checkmark (which Facebook calls a "badge") right after their name.

He's never been one to bite his tongue, and Jared Leto doesn't think Jennifer Lawrence's tumble at the 86th Academy Awards passes the smell test.
Attracting quite the A-list crowd, Miu Miu staged their Fall 2014 runway presentation as part of Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday afternoon (March 5).

Spirits were high and blood-alcohol levels were higher as our favorite stars arrived at the 2014 Vanity Fair Oscar Party last night (March 2).
And Best Supporting Actor winner Jared Leto clearly had some excited energy to burn off as he burst into the fame of Anne Hathaway's red carpet pose down.
While the ladies garnered plenty of attention with their gorgeous gowns, the male guests of the Vanity Fair Oscar Party gave them a run for their money.
Oscar winner Jared Leto milled around the Sunset Plaza while proudly brandishing his Best Supporting Actor trophy.
On the heels of their impressive wins, "Dallas Buyers Club" stars Jared Leto and Matthew McConaughey went backstage for a few photo opportunities at last night's (March 2) 86th Academy Awards.

"The problem with Andrew's argument is that it assumes congressional Republicans want accurate data to inform their policymaking. If you have committed yourself to claims that can be disproved with data, like "inflation is high," then good economic data do not serve your interests."
The GOP has long pursued faith-based economic policies. Those who seek evidence are obviously deficient in belief.

Greg Johnson: Liberal narrative one of smug superiority
The liberal narrative is set: Liberals are compassionate, considerate, thoughtful and bright. Conservatives are petty, political, puerile and, well, dumb.
This shallow superiority jumped off the page at me in a supposedly unbiased report from the supposedly unbiased Washington publication "The Hill." Supposedly unbiased health care reporter Sam Baker touched on the topic Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam said is his biggest decision, Medicaid expansion. Baker wrote, "The (Obamacare) law gave little consideration to the prospect of states opting out (of Medicaid expansion), but most Republican governors are rejecting the expansion as they try to undermine the Affordable Care Act however possible." (Emphasis added.)
True to the liberal narrative, Baker did not substantiate with data or quotes; he merely proclaimed. Never mind the $1.1 billion Obamacare cost for just the first five years. Never mind that TennCare, Tennessee's Medicaid program, ate up almost all excess revenues this past year, even without the expansion.
According to the liberal narrative, the only reason Haslam proceeds with caution with what former Tennessee Democratic Gov. Phil Bredesen called "the mother of all unfunded mandates" is petty politics.
The liberal narrative touched Tennessee last year when the Legislature passed laws dealing with "gateway sexual activity" and "critical thinking" in the classroom. The sex education bill was reported on by all manner of liberal-leaning outlets.
Rogersville writer Amy Greene landed an op-ed in the New York Times where she opined about both bills. Greene couldn't help but repeat the thin liberal narrative, saying the first bill would "ban teachers from discussing hand-holding" while the other would "effectively allow creationism to be taught in our classrooms."
The local and national liberal cognoscenti mocked lawmakers. Knoxville Republican state Rep. Bill Dunn has a simple explanation. "If you trace it back, liberal groups are making things up," Dunn said in an interview. "Liberals are creating falsehoods because they won't address what the bills actually say."
Democratic state Rep. John Deberry of Memphis bolstered Dunn's thesis. Deberry, during debate of the gateway sexual activity bill, said 70 girls in just one school in his district became pregnant. "We have a whole state department that takes care of somebody else's mess," Deberry said.
The liberal narrative mocks and ignores the stark reality about a devastating problem.
Dunn said outside groups, teaching sex education in Tennessee schools, taught explicitly vulgar things, leading to some groups being banned. The result of the much-mocked bills? "You're not hearing about teachers being punished about hand-holding," Dunn said. "We're not hearing about outside groups coming in doing outrageous things in sex education. You're not hearing about schools teaching creationism. Science scores have actually gone up since passage of the critical-thinking bill."
So much for the liberal narrative. But what do I know, huh?

Oahe Dam
effect on Moreau River
Moreau River
...where it receives several north-bank tributaries (including Thunder Butte Creek and the Little Moreau River), to the Missouri River south of Mobridge. The lower Moreau basin was inundated by Oahe Dam, a major flood-control unit of the Missouri River basin project, and is now part of Lake Oahe. The river was named for an early French trader.
significance to Pierre
Pierre (South Dakota, United States)
...Fountain (veterans' memorial), several other memorials, the Cultural Heritage Center (1989; headquarters for the South Dakota State Historical Society), and a 5-acre (2-hectare) artesian-fed lake. Oahe Dam (1948–62)—a power, irrigation, recreation, and flood-control project 5 miles (8 km) north of Pierre—has impounded the 231-mile (372-km) Lake Oahe along the Missouri River...

if you dot want to be downvoted dont reply first easy as that son
I understand why you decided to put singed and gragas on sale, considering they have some pretty neat skins. But I don't think that the champions are great choices to even bother spend RP on, when I can get them both with IP in about 3 days without trying to hard. But still, I see the idea. I approve of this build.

ATV rider kiled in hit and run
POSTED: Monday, February 1, 2010 - 7:57am
UPDATED: Thursday, June 3, 2010 - 11:00pm
State Police want to find a driver involved in a deadly hit and run. It happened on LA 67.
Troopers said Troy Evans was driving his four wheeler when he lost control and was thrown from the ATV. Two vehicles hit him, before anyone could stop traffic.
The driver of one car didn't stop. The other driver did, and wasn't charged with any crime.
Call State Police if you have any information on this crash.

A free week of Udyr or another free week of Twitch... At least with Udyr you know he isn't going to do anything, but with rat you never know if its going to be a fail rat that feeds or a fail rat that stays in stealth way too long and watches people die in fights before running away. And then theres all the pots/wards you have to buy this week now.
the people who complain about every champion are the worst of all
I pick twitch and purposely win, just because I can.
Remove Stealth. Classes shouldn't require you to spend extra gold to defend against them and stealth classes are the only ones that do.
you spend gold to counter the enemy team good luck winning a game with no items bro

I currently have a Kel-Tec PLR-16. I have been VERY impressed by this "little" gun and wouldn't hesitate recommending it. Still, the other day I saw a Sig P-556 and couldn't help but notice how similar it is to the PLR both in looks and function. Both guns are AR/AK hybreds using the AR bolt system but an AK style gas piston. I also noticed the Sig was selling for $1,600+ while my fully tricked out PLR was less than $700.
My thought is that either gun would make a very good home defense weapon, which is why I originally got a PLR several years ago. Both guns are portable and relatively light (neither gun has a shoulder stock while the PLR has a 9" barrel vs. the Sig's 10" and they're still legally considered pistols... at least for now) and they have enough "punch" to stop an intruder. Both guns can carry a lot of ammo as well since you can use relatively inexpensive 20 and 30 round AR mags in either gun. As home defense weapons, both seem to be right up the alley for many people. Also, due to their design they seem to be less prone to some of the problems AR's have due to the direct gas system they use and are more compact than AR based pistols for the same reason. My base PLR-16 was $475 and with all the factory accessories (fore end w/rail, muzzle brake, single point sling, etc) and a K-T soft case ran about $650. I already had a half dozen AR mags and several laser sights and lights so I didn't buy more. Finally, I can get two (maybe even three) PLR's or one PLR and LOTS of ammo and accessories for the price of one P556.
My PLR-16 is reliable, simple to care for and more than accurate enough for it's intended purpose. I can hit soda cans easily at 75 yds offhand, it fires everything I've put in it and it uses standard AR .223/5.56 magazines plus anything that can be put on an accessory rail. OTOH, there is still the old saying "You get what you pay for" and my question is just how good is the P556? How reliable are they, how user friendly is the P556, how easy are they to maintain and get parts for if necessary, are they even available in most locations? It doesn't matter how good a gun is or what it costs if you can't get one!
Anyway, I'm getting a pretty nice tax refund and I'm looking to stimulate the economy by buying a new gun with some of it. Has anyone here had experience with both (or either) guns and do you think paying $1,000 more for the 556 is worth the MAJOR difference in price? Aside from bragging rights (it IS a SIG), would it be money better spent on a "low end" PLR or go for the high end Sig?

A 68-year-old Woodlawn deacon and retired carpenter appeared in Jefferson County court Tuesday, on charges of sexually assaulting children.
Charles "Charlie" Sanders, of Woodlawn appeared with his attorney, Nicole Villani for a first advisement and arraignment.
According to Jefferson County State's Attorney Doug Hoffman, Sanders was advised of the charges against him and pleaded not guilty. Sanders is charged with three Class X felony counts of predatory criminal sexual assault of a child under the age of 13. Each Class X count is punishable in Illinois by up to 30 years in prison if convicted.
It is alleged that between 2002 and 2003, Sanders committed acts of sexual penetration on a young girl and that between 2010 and 2012, he committed the same or similar acts on at least one different young girl under the age of 13.
Illinois State Police arrested Sanders on the charges in October. His bail was set at $250,000. He quickly posted $25,000 cash bond and was released.
Hoffman says the conditions of his bond prohibit Sanders from having contact with the two alleged victims and no unsupervised contact with anyone under the age of 18.
Judge Thomas Dinn scheduled the case for a February 5 pre-trial hearing.

Happily Pleased By Going Up a Size
By Really Satisfied With this Buy
from Montreal, Quebec
With these 3 "Lace" Genie Bras, I went up 1 more size to a 2X from a XL/1X and its quite a bit more comfortable, especially in the cup fit. I could even buy extra paddings for a fuller lift and they would fit fine in the openings.Lace is Great, Pretty, "NO" flaws ""Happy"I picked the "Lace Bras" this time, because on TV and Video, the Ladies said that this "Style" Stretches a Bit more with a Slightly more Relaxed Fit, and when I received them and tried each one on, Well, its True, a little more stretch in Shoulders and Cups, and thats what I wanted, and the Band underneath seems to stay straight more.So.......They told the Truth....Passing It On..Bye..
Best Bra's Ever
By Rosie
from Georgina
I don't understand the negative reviews. I have 15 of these bra's and they fit like a charm. Will never go back to ordinary bra's. I also have some of the original ones, but the straps are to short on me so they tend to ride up. I'm a size small so the xs-sm fits perfect.
Genie bra with lace problems.....
By Reenie
from New Perlican, Newfoundland and Labrador
I have been wearing the Genie bra without the lace for several years now and I just love them, but I could not get that product, so I decided to try the lace bras. Totally disappointed in the product, the first time I wore one the lace came off and since then the lace is coming off another one - before they are even washed! I would never recommend them!

By Figgs
from Brampton, Ontario.
I should have known better than to buy these!! They were awful and way too small!! And I ordered a 3X to make sure it would fit. Normally I wear a 42D. With Genie Bras, I might as well be wearing a "breast binder". No support, way too small, cheesy material and flattened me instead of supporting me. I am incredibly disappointed. As for this new setup where I had to pay $5.00 to return these, I am not impressed. So I paid $25.00 for the bras, $7.00 for s&h and a further $5.00 to return them. Needless to say, I am now out $12.00!!!! I will not be ordering anything in future unless I am 200% sure I will be keeping it. I have bought a lot of varied items over the years, including computers and a tablet in June. No problem. But sticking me for $12.00 for something that was unsuitable is not fair in my book. I did not know this was the NEW method as I rarely return anything.

I have several sets of the original genie bras and they are the only bras I wear. I love them. These colored ones with the lace are NOTHING like the originals. Let me know when you make the colors with the original fabric and I'll buy a ton of them. Until then, no more colors for me...No support and the sizing is way off. Am keeping to wear at night to bed but disappointed still.
Total Comfort
By Josie
from Winnipeg, MB
I have been contemplating ordering the Genie Bra for sometime & like the other reviews was hesitant because of what I had read about them. However, I am so glad that I didn't listen to them. I have since worn the bras at home / work & have no issues what so ever with them. This is a very comfortable bra. I ordered my normal size & the fit is perfect. I didn't give a score of 5 only because I am still waiting for the matching panties to arrive - since ordering JUL/3 14.
I will never buy a regular bra again. I bought the xs/s and it fits perfect. The straps stay in place no more discompfort. I just ordered another set.
Better Than I Expected
By Michelle
from Surrey (BC)
I received my Brights & Basics bras today. I have been ANXIOUSLY awaiting their arrival! My Mom wears the original Genie Bra & I tried on her 1X. I needed to go up a size from hers, so I ordered the 2X. I LOVE THEM!!! I tried on each bra, as I know each would fit differently. What a great product! I am large busted (42 DD in most bras) and I have issue with my skin & in that area. I have no more hanging out part under my armpits & in my back & under my breasts feels WONDERFUL!!! If this provides me with relief & I can wear them for the "every day" & save the underwire bras for events etc, YAY YAY YAY!!! Very happy! I will be ordering myself the original Genie Bras now!! :)

Zero Quality Control
By MizJill
from Vancouver
I bought a pack of the original-style Genie bra and was impressed with the integrity of the fabric and the support. I am quite barrel-chested, so my rib cage measurement is proportionately bigger than is normally associated with my cup size.I ordered this lace-trimmed version one size bigger than my original style. The nude colour fits pretty well. The black is just a bit tight in the band. The white is ridiculously large; the straps are inches longer than the other two. Where is the quality control?Unfortunately, with back-ordering and real life issues, I missed the opportunity to send them back. The fabric is thin and flimsy and the fit is all over the map. Thumbs down on this product.
By Heather7
from B.C.
I took a chance and ordered 2 sets of the basics color in a 3x...they are not as nice as the brights sets which are really nice in the basic genie bra....the modesty pads in these sets are about 3 sizes too small and do not stay where you put them, also the straps are flimsy, don't stay up as nicely, however the band does stretch nicely to fit me, there isn't much support....good for around the house..The material in this particular set is not as heavy as the basic genie bra.

Yesterday, as I went into the pool, I found a Cicada floating on it's side on the water. I took it with me back into the studio thinking Sergio could use it on one of the pieces we are doing for the Zip code show. After all, Cicadas are symbolic of our zip code area..just as Scorpions are of Sergio's former home in Mexico.
I placed the Cicada in a little clay jar, and continued my painting.
Hours later, as I lifted it out of the jar for Sergio to place it on the canvas with beeswax, I noticed....... it's legs were moving!
Slowly, the Cicada came back to life in my hand.
I tried to let it fly out of the studio, and yet it flew right back unto my shirt.
The Cicada stayed on my shirt all night as I painted, and until 2am when we went to bed. It reminded me of the insects that the Aztecs wore as jewlery: the Mexican Maquech, a wingless beetle from the Yucatan.
In Ancient Mexico, the Maquech were worn by "high society" as jewelry. Their legs, much like the legs of my Cicada friend, easily adhere to clothing. In ancient Mexico, the Maquech would be painted, decorated with small crystals-and a gold leash to avoid loosing it.
See my Cicada friend on my (left) shoulder as I paint?
Legend has it that when a beautiful Mayan princess was not allowed to marry the prince from a rival tribe, she wished to die rather than live without her love, and she wept night and day over her forbidden love. A Shaman, hearing her cries and learning of her misery, transformed her into a glittering beetle, a piece of living jewelry for the prince to always wear on his chest, right next to his heart.
It is said that if you give your Maquech the name of the one you desire while wearing it close to your heart, you will bring your loved one close to you.
Whomever/whatever you desire (hope for) ponder on this:
Things which you do not hope happen more frequently than things which you do hope.
~Titus Maccius Plautus

David Moyes says Louis Saha should have scored four goals against Chelsea
DAVID MOYES paid tribute to Everton's two-goal matchwinner Louis Saha last night - then chided the French forward for not coming off the Goodison Park pitch with the matchball. Saha scored two superb goals to help his side beat Chelsea 2-1, but wasted a penalty and saw another couple of chances fly wide. 'He should have had four, not two!' smiled Moyes, who pre-match had called on his top scorer to rediscover the firepower which had brought him 12 goals before Christmas, but only one from the penalty spot since then, before last night. 'I've challenged him again,' Moyes added. 'I gave him a slight pat on the back, but not a full one. 'I thought Louis played really well against John Terry down at Stamford Bridge and he did it again tonight. I think John Terry was worried when the long ball dropped over the top and Louis took it on his chest but, hey, John Terry's a top centre-half and if they don't want him I'll have him!' The Blues boss also singled out American international Landon Donovan for 'maybe his best performance so far for us.'

I am a member of RugerForums as well as here and there was a problem with someone signing up for a membership and then sending spam to all members.
