This has to be one of the best made for TV movies that you are ever likely to see.
Based on the real life story of Platt & Matix ( played by David Soul & Michael Gross ) two murderous bank robbers operating in Dade County, Florida, this film is expertly crafted and maintains a gripping pace all the way through. Hollywood veteran Ronny Cox (Deliverance, RoboCop, Total Recall) brings a steely eyed brilliance to his role as Ben Grogan, head of the FBI unit charged with the apprehension of these bandits.
Soul and Grosse put in dynamite performances as the two violent and unstoppable villians, which was a total role reversal from the warm, friendly characters that they are both best known for on television. Amazingly, the film does not pull any punches when it comes to the vicious nature of the crimes committed by both of these men. The final gun battle involving the FBI and these two villians is well shot (no pun intended), powerful and gripping television.
Probably David Soul's best work ever... Michael Grosse is topnotch also...
This film was developed shortly after the true-life tale of these two
robbers ended in a mass of gunfire and death. The best thing about this
film is that it remains faithful to that true-life tale. Everything, down
to the meticulously choreographed final shootout, is done accurately (I have
also seen the FBI training film based on this event and the final sequence
here follows that training film to a "Tee").
The truth of the matter is, when you have true-to-life villains as ruthless as Soul and Grosse's characters, there is no need to embellish. This film is understated and cool. The FBI-side of the story is told through Ronnie Cox and Ben Sheehan analytically, without theatrics and flash. You still get the sense that the FBI wanted these killers off the streets ASAP and there is great tension as the violence continues while the FBI gets closer and closer.
If you get a chance, don't miss seeing this fine film!
I first saw this TV movies years ago, and was as intrigued as everybody
by the casting of David Soul and Michael Gross.
Although I haven't seen it for some years, and didn't know the name, I felt compelled to hunt it down on IMDB to make a comment. As well as being outstanding in the action sequences, particularly the ultimate shootout, it was particularly notable for portraying the wrongdoers as unsentimental killers. These murders live with one years after having seen the movie. The makers achieve this not by lingering over the badness of the villains, but by showing them dispatching their victims lightly, unhesitatingly.
Good, skillful movie.
Most people tend to look down their noses at made-for-network TV movies. In fact, a rap against some theatrical films is that it plays "like a made-for-TV film". IN THE LINE OF DUTY: THE FBI MURDERS should take a backseat to no movie: network, cable or theatrical. Based on an actual FBI case, FBI MURDERS chronicles the attempts of the Bureau to capture two men who were going on a spree of murder and robbery across Florida in 1986. Eight agents shot it out with the two men. By the time the smoke cleared, two agents were dead and six were wounded before the robbers were taken down. The action in this film can stand side-by-side with such shoot 'em ups as HEAT (which was a remake of a made-for-network movie: LA TAKEDOWN), BONNIE AND CLYDE and TAXI DRIVER. What may come as a surprise is the actor playing one of the robbers. While David Soul has portrayed men on both sides of the law, it is the shock of seeing Michael Gross, best known for playing the ultraliberal Stephen Keaton on FAMILY TIES as the most vicious of the two crooks. I had the opportunity to go back and look at new articles about this case, one of the news photos is used as a shot in the film. The makers of this really did their homework. It was a shame that FBI MURDERS did not receive any Emmy nominations. Maybe someone will do a theatrical remake of it and cop some Oscars. If it can happen with HEAT, it can happen to this movie.
Liberally based on true events surrounding a mid-80's F.B.I.
investigation and notorious apprehension attempt of a pair of
murderous, military-styled bank-robbers, IN THE LINE OF DUTY:
THE F.B.I. MURDERS (1988) is well-scripted, beautifully acted,
and superbly directed. The pacing and tension build up perfectly
as the two story-lines one involving the F.B.I. team diligently
working its way through the case, the other showing the harsh
criminal viewpoint mesh together with ever-tightening switch- ups until the dramatic and bloody climax. Nothing feels forced or
out of place, and nothing seems missing. Just solid story-telling
and top-notch drama from beginning to end.
It's largely the casting which plays such a huge role in determining
the quality of this picture, in my opinion. With screen veterans
Ronny Cox, as senior agent Ben "The Grinch" Grogan, and David
Soul, as the sadistically deadly robber Michael Lee Platt, you have
both sides of a very truthful and convincing acting team
represented. Add to that Bruce Greenwood, as the rookie agent,
his ex-"Knot's Landing" compatriot Doug Sheehan, as another
hard-driven and concerned field-agent, and a plethora of other
lesser-known but equally skilled actors and you have a solid cast.
But the most notable and electrifying performance turned in is in
the surprisingly cold and delivered performance by Michael Gross,
as fellow killer William Russell Matix. Here Gross completely
sheds the compassionate, intelligent and endearing character
traits so well-portrayed with his much-loved character Steven
Keaton on the TV series "Family Ties", and gives a completely
inner-defined and chilling turn as a contradictory bible-thumping/
womanizing, murderer and bank-robbing degenerate. Shocking
and terribly engaging all in one. The film pulls few punches with
regards to violence throughout the final "take-down" scene is
surely one of the most graphic and bloody ever shot for
mainstream audiences, even by today's standards I'd wager
but it never comes across as exploitive. The story is always the
main focus of the film and for THAT reason it succeeds; it's simply
a good, engaging story that needed to be told.
I first saw this made-for-TV movie on it's original network television
airing and was extremely impressed. Now, 15 years later, I still
hold it in high regard (with only the cars and the synth-driven
soundtrack music really adding any dating to the picture at all).
Unfortunately, IN THE LINE OF DUTY: THE F.B.I. MURDERS, has
long since been out-of-print on VHS, and rarely turns up on TV. For
those lucky enough to come across it I whole-heartedly
recommend it.
7/10. A made-for-TV movie that succeeds in being more!
The In The Line of Duty series stands out as excellent - I was fortunate enough to watch a police training tape that re-enacted the infamous shootout upon which this movie is based. The movie itself is well acted and directed. The shootout at the end is pretty amazing - in fact, it shows a real double-standard on the part of network television - they'll cut a theatrical film to death, but if it's made for TV, they'll spice it up as much as they want. You won't believe your eyes as Michael Gross (Family Ties) and half of Starsky and Hutch (David Soul), play vicious robbers, who are finally caught up with by FBI agents, and engage them in a bloody shootout. Gross and Soul take hit after hit before going down, and taking two agents with them. (This isn't theatrics, by the way. Those two men were adrenalized, and determined to get away. They really did take a lot of hits) The tactical mistakes made by the agents that day have reshaped police training forever.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
This true story of a armed team of robber/murders hunted by law enforcement which resulted in the most deadly shootout in FBI history and the most studied armed incident after the Kennedy assassination was well told and intense .Michael Lee Platt and William Matix seemed to have split personalities that the chemistry of the two of them together ignited into explosions of violence and murder .Both ex-military , high combat proficency and they practiced their marksmanship regularly , making for a particularly dangerous duo .Platt in particular was amazing I wouldn't want to go up against him , he seemed to be a born assassin . Add to that their kamikaze attitude and their attempted capture was ripe for disaster .The FBI only adds to this with bad decisions on site , before and during , however their motives were as lofty as they come .They were trying to protect the public . One wishes they were able to make better choices because they were good men (Grogan and Dove )but the film is intense and worth seeing , all the more so because most of it is true .
Finally out on DVD, fans of true crime dramas and action films will
really enjoy this 1988 made-for-television production. Based on actual
events in Miami, Florida (I'm not sure how embellished), "In the Line
of Duty: The FBI Murders concerns a pair of military trained bank-
robbers and the FBI task force who attempted to identify and apprehend
them. This is a far cry from the fictional movies that attempt to
glorify G-Men or violent criminals.
Both sides are portrayed in their real life bumbling glory as the robbers act stupidly and recklessly and the task force basically stumbles into them and is ill prepared for the confrontation. But this makes the story quite fascinating and if you connect with it you will probably want to watch it several times.
The film is structured as two parallel stories and what suspense there is stems from the viewers knowledge that the two stories will eventually intersect with each other, you just don't know how or when it will occur.
The strength of the film (besides its real life feel) is the characterization of the two robbers, played by David Soul and Michael Gross. Although their backgrounds are fragmentary, it appears that they bring out the worst in each other and their crime spree continues more for the adrenaline rush it provides. They begin to really get off on the violence and power, their crimes are almost random which tends to work in their favor as the investigation can find little logic or pattern behind their activities.
The film's weakness is the parallel story of the task force. This was a far cry from a cerebral Sherlock Holmes type investigation so you eagerly wait for them to cut back to Soul and Grace. The characterizations are generally shallow and weak so almost all viewers will end up identifying with the two criminals; even though they have a lot of mad dog qualities. Doug Sheehan is quite effective as the task force commander but Bruce Greenwood and Ronny Cox (rookie paired with veteran) are painful to watch.
The violent climax is worth waiting for, although the violence is in real time, the confrontation has the slow-mo feel of a Sam Peckinpah production.
Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.
The first in a series of made for television movies, this is perhaps THE BEST. David Soul and Michael Gross play two "respectable" Floridians who set about murdering others and robbing banks. Their exploits come to the attention of the FBI who pursue them in true J Edgar Hoover type fashion. The climatic gun battle is not to be missed. Though toned down considerably for TV, it would rival the shoot out in the movie HEAT. Strongly recommended.
This is the best, or one of the best made for TV movies I've seen. Along with enjoying the movie, I was really moved by some of it's somber moments. It's total suspense, excellent action, and some incredible shoot out scenes. Everyone who enjoys cops and robber movies will really be engrossed in this high suspense thriller.

Four Diamonds assists families like the Hess family during cancer fights
Editor's Note: Penn State's THON Weekend is Feb. 20-22. Students will dance for 46-hours to support pediatric cancer patients. To date, $114 million has been raised and donated to Four Diamonds, a foundation that supports the families of pediatric patients at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital, and the cancer research done here. For more information on THON, or to watch the activities live, visit THON.org. For more information on Four Diamonds, visit FourDiamonds.org.
Playing iPad games and shaking a tambourine may not seem special to the parents of most preschoolers.
But, for parents of children battling cancer, it's the little things like these that can brighten even the darkest of days.
Providing normalcy in the midst of treatment is part of the services supported by Four Diamonds, the sole beneficiary of The Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon (THON) happening this weekend.
Four Diamonds supports children and their families facing the challenges of pediatric cancer by paying for care and treatment not covered by insurance or other means as well as additional expenses that disrupt the welfare of the children.
One of those families is the Hess family from Harrisburg. Lydia was diagnosed with leukemia in April of 2014 at the age of 2.
Four Diamonds makes it possible for 16 specialty care providers to be available exclusively to Four Diamonds patients and their families – including child life specialists, a clinical nutritionist, a clinical psychologist, nurse specialists, social workers, music therapists, a clinical nutritionist, and pastoral care.
"All of those things have made Lydia's life and our days so much easier," said Julie Hess, Lydia's mother. "Just to make one day easier is a big deal to us. We've had a lot of really hard days."
Lydia's diagnosis was a complete surprise to the family. Last winter, she had recurring fevers.
"She was 2 and interacting with other kids — going to preschool once a week, swim classes and church– so we figured she was just picking up all the germs," Julie said.
In April, Lydia's fever spiked higher than normal and she began complaining of finger pain. Julie and her husband, Brandon, suspected something unusual was happening.
"The pediatrician examined her and said 'let's do some x-rays, let's do some blood work,' but they never mentioned the word cancer or leukemia," Julie said.
Two hours after Lydia's appointment, her doctor called the family.
"You know when you get a call at home that quickly after you've been there, it's not good," Julie said.
Pediatric experimental cancer therapeutics program's success is thanks to Four Diamonds support
Editor's Note: Penn State's THON Weekend is Feb. 20-22. Students will dance for 46-hours to support pediatric cancer patients. To date, $114 million has been raised and donated to Four Diamonds, a foundation that supports the families of pediatric patients at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital, and the cancer research done here. For more information on THON, or to watch the activities live, visit THON.org. For more information on Four Diamonds, visit FourDiamonds.org.
When Dr. Valerie Brown was hired as clinical director of the experimental therapeutics program in the Division of Pediatric Oncology/Hematology at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital, she had a vision: Develop a menu of experimental cancer treatment options not available in the region.
Through funding from Four Diamonds, her vision is becoming a reality, helping young cancer patients find alternatives when standard care isn't enough.
Experimental therapeutics are typically phase 1 and 2 clinical trials. In phase 1 trials, researchers are looking for toxicity in the therapies. In phase 2 trials, the effectiveness of the therapies on specific cancer types is studied before testing in bigger studies.
"I really hit the ground running, and one of the things we needed to do was expand the portfolio because you don't want to compete with other academic medical centers," Brown said. "You want to offer things not offered at other places and be able to offer a variety of different studies for a large spectrum of cancer types."
To help with that goal, Penn State Hershey joined several consortiums including the Neuroblastoma and Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium. The consortiums bring together several institutions all sharing the same goal by working together cooperatively, opening up access to a variety of clinical trials.
Brown has seen how the approach is working.
In one case, a child had neuroblastoma in remission and was set to participate in a study to keep the cancer in remission, called maintenance therapy. But as scans and imaging were completed, it was discovered that she relapsed and the cancer had returned.
"That meant she wasn't eligible for the maintenance therapy study," Brown said. "But instead of having to turn that child away with her disappointed mom, devastated with news that the neuroblastoma had returned, we had another protocol that is a treatment for relapsed neuroblastoma. If we didn't have that portfolio of clinical studies ready, she would have had to leave and go somewhere else."
In this case, the study is a personalized – or precision – medicine study. The tumor's DNA and RNA are extracted from a piece of the tumor and are analyzed and compared against normal tissues in the body and other cancer type cells.
"Therapies are based on how the same tumor types typically react to treatment," Brown said. "But each tumor is individual, and if the person has relapsed, we already know it isn't reacting like a typical tumor. By analyzing the patient's individual tumor, we try to find out what differences are making it react differently, and then we decide what we think will be the best difference to target for treatment."
These results are then compared and prioritized by a computer program against a panel of about 200 agents – some of which are alternative like the spice curcumin, which is known to be active against cancers.
Those reports are then sent to primary investigators at the centers across the country that participate in the consortium. People are assigned to review the case and come up with a treatment plan based upon these reports, which is then discussed virtually through a tumor board.
"That day, as badly as I felt for that poor mom and child because she relapsed, I turned to our medical director and I said, 'this is why we set up our program like we have. This is the vision we had, and it is benefitting our patients,'" Brown said.
Including studies in the Children's Oncology Group, there are currently up to 40 trials available, with around 10 being early phase trials. Patients have travelled from nearby states to participate in the studies.
"People are coming from other states because the treatment options are not available there," Brown said. "By word of mouth, and on social media from the parents, people have recognized that we are offering things that nobody is offering nearby."
She continues to look for opportunities to connect Penn State Hershey doctors and scientists with peers at other institutions. She also actively looks for opportunities to move Penn State Hershey research in the laboratories into clinical trials through the consortiums.
"These parents are coming to us and are really at the end of the rope for their children," Brown said. "You could offer, 'I read a paper and they tried this and maybe…' but the science side of me just can't let that happen. We have to do this in a systematic way because we really want to make sure what we treat our children with is effective and not hurting them more. That can only be done in the context of studies and trials."
All of this would not be possible without the support of Four Diamonds and the Penn State students who work hard throughout the year raising funds through THON.
"It takes time. It takes money. It takes resources," Brown said. "Luckily I have a lot of those things here that I didn't have at other places. Without the Four Diamonds' backing, and its recognition of the importance of having an early phase program, none of this could happen and I wouldn't be here. The money, in my opinion, has been well spent because even if these children don't have the outcomes we want, we are contributing to the wealth of knowledge, and hopefully pushing it along so that the next child who walks through the door won't have to go through a relapse or undergo such intense treatments."
Online resource gives childcare providers needed training
You're a teacher in a preschool classroom of 4-year-olds. You interact with children, parents and support staff on a daily basis. You are concerned that a child may be being abused. How can you be sure if there is enough to constitute reasonable suspicion? What do you do about it? How do you handle resistance from colleagues?
A new, free, online training module created by Dr. Benjamin Levi, director of Penn State Hershey's Center for the Protection of Children, takes childcare providers and employees of daycare centers through an interactive, story-based program that gives them the experiential learning they need to more accurately identify and report suspected abuse.
The module launched just in time to help childcare providers comply with a Pennsylvania law that went into effect at the beginning of the year requiring completion of three hours of training on the subject.
Levi has spent 12 years researching reasonable suspicion, and 2 1/2 years creating the interactive training course to engage those who are often most likely to encounter the signs and symptoms of abuse.
"Three out of four children who die from child abuse are younger than 5, yet childcare providers have one of the lowest reporting rates of all mandated reporters," Levi said. "And yet they serve the most vulnerable population."
The training at iLookOutForChildAbuse.com begins with a 10-minute pre-test, followed by the 90-minute, story-based experience and a 10-minute post-test. It also includes handouts and post-training resources. Participants must stop to answer questions, make decisions and render judgments along the way, just as they would in real life.
"It's not just information delivery," Levi said. "It's about helping people connect and see their own role in it all."
Epi Challenge sparks science career interest in central Pennsylvania high school students
With a growing need for science, technology, engineering and mathematics professionals, Penn State is fostering an interest in these fields among high school students through the Epidemiology Challenge, a program within the Department of Public Health Sciences at the College of Medicine.
Through a grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences at the National Institutes of Health, Penn State's Early Preparation and Inspiration for Careers in the Biomedical Sciences (EPIC) program's Epi Challenge offers area high school students a look into the world of epidemiology, used in biomedical and public health research. At the same time, Penn State Hershey researchers are tracking the students' interest, progress and aptitude for science careers.
"There's a decrease in people pursuing these careers and majors," said Andrea L. Stennett, Penn State coach for the Epi Challenge teams at Middletown Area High School.
EPIC is the product of a collaboration of experts in epidemiology, secondary education, and career development, representing Penn State, Montclair State University, the Pennsylvania Department of Education, and the Pennsylvania Department of Health.
Educators and administrators at five area high schools have been instrumental in shaping the EPIC program, including Middletown, Cedar Cliff, Lower Dauphin, John Harris and Sci Tech.
According to the National Science Foundation, the country may face a crisis due to an eventual deficit of epidemiologists – specialists who study the causes and effects of public health issues.
Through the course of the Epi Challenge, teams of students from the five area high schools identify an important health-related topic, develop a hypothesis, create a research proposal, gather and analyze data, and draw conclusions regarding their study results.
Ceremonial ground breaking on $54 million University Technology Center
On Wednesday, Jan. 14, Penn State Hershey held a ceremonial groundbreaking for a 46,000-square-foot, $54-million data center on the Medical Center and College of Medicine campus. The construction of the University Technology Center is the next step to enabling Penn State Hershey to utilize "big data" to enhance patient care through disease modeling and predictors for disease by more efficiently processing and analyzing clinical information.
The new center will provide centralized space and enhanced security for patient, research and educational data for the Medical Center and College of Medicine, as well as powerful computers and main frames for analyzing the information.
"Building this new data center is every bit as crucial for improving the health outcomes of people in central Pennsylvania as building a new hospital or institute," said Dr. A. Craig Hillemeier, chief executive officer, Medical Center, Penn State's senior vice president for health affairs and dean, College of Medicine. "Two of the biggest factors in modern health care are personalized medicine and population health, and the common denominator with both is the ability to gather and analyze large volumes of rich health data."

THON support for pediatric research is even more than a dream come true
Dr. Valerie Brown, associate professor of pediatrics at Penn State College of Medicine, thought THON was too good to be true when she came to Hershey in late 2013.
"I just didn't believe that this support existed," she says. "It was a dream come true, but even more."
THON, or the Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon, is an annual fundraising event that supports the Four Diamonds Fund at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital. The Four Diamonds Fund supports the families of children with cancer Children's Hospital and pediatric cancer research at the College of Medicine. The 2014 THON, held this past weekend in State College, raised a record $13,343,517.33 for the Four Diamonds Fund.
With the help of THON and the Four Diamonds Fund, Dr. Brown is growing a cutting-edge experimental therapeutics program for pediatric patients with cancer and has brought the Neuroblastoma and Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium to Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital. A consortium is a collaboration of physicians and scientists with different areas of expertise working together around a specific disease or type of disease. In a translational research approach, scientists and others work across their fields of study to move discoveries made in the laboratory to use in patients, and take what they learn with patient populations back to the lab for further study.
One of the goals of the consortium is to improve the outcomes for children with cancer by quickly determining a specialized treatment.
"A lot of treatment for patients with a disease that has come back or mutated is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic after it hits the iceberg," says Dr. Brown. "You can't avoid the iceberg, and so you need to have better lifeboats. Early phase clinical trials help us to build a better lifeboat." (more…)

Researcher calls THON an inspiration for his work
Hong-Gang Wang, Ph.D., director of the molecular oncology program at Penn State College of Medicine, has the same energy and devotion as THON participants about finding the cure for pediatric cancer.
"THON is not simply a fundraising event, it generates inspiration," he says.
The Penn State IFC/Panhellenic Dance Marathon, or THON, is an annual fundraising event that supports the Four Diamonds Fund at Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital. The Four Diamonds Fund supports families of children with cancer at the Children's Hospital and pediatric cancer research at the College of Medicine.
Wang has been studying pediatric cancer since he arrived at the College of Medicine in 2008. As a father, he understands what families with sick children endure. As a researcher, he always looks towards the future. His research focuses on autophagy, a process where the cancer cells eat themselves, resulting in a recycling process.
"Autophagy helps tumor cells survive the assaults of treatment," Wang says. Cancer treatment causes stress to the cancer cells, which is supposed to kill them. Through autophagy, cancer cells are relieved from this stress and recycle toxic materials for survival.

Planting freshly-cut Plumies right into the ground
PlumeriaDiAugust 15, 2014
I have never had a problem planting freshly-cut Plumerias right into the ground, leaves and all, during the warmer months. They take off growing right where they left off? I never used to fertilize them until this year and presently, I have a few hundred plants. They are very resilient. I really believe that the Plumies feel my passion and love for them so they are quite healthy. The only time I "callous" them is if the base gets too wet. I then cut the wet part off and let them dry out thoroughly, then replant them. I think I'm becoming a "plumeria hoarder" - my kids want to do an "intervention" but I want to start selling them off next year.Then they an "intervention" me all the way to the bank.

Your ISP May Be Up to No Good
|By: msmolly Friday November 14, 2014 4:30 pm
A network tampering activity implemented by a popular Internet Service Provider (ISP) and in development by another has come under some scrutiny.
Verizon has been quietly tracking the Internet activity of more than 100 million cellular customers by inserting "supercookies" into their cell phone web browsing — powerful markers that even sophisticated users find it difficult to evade. The tracker functions even if a customer uses a private browsing mode or clears cookies. Privacy advocates say this tracking can expose our Internet behavior to outsiders, including to government intelligence services, and also may violate federal telecommunications and wiretapping laws. (AT&T's program is not as sophisticated, and is still being developed and tested, so is not yet being deployed.)

AT&T Refuses to Disclose to Shareholders What Data It Shares With the NSA
|By: Kevin Gosztola Friday December 6, 2013 3:59 pm
AT&T, one of the largest telecommunications companies in the world, has informed shareholders it will not disclose any details on its dealings with the National Security Agency.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California filed a "shareholder proposal" with AT&T after it was revealed in the news that the company is sharing data with the US government. It demanded that AT&T "publish semi-annual reports, subject to existing laws and regulation, providing metrics and discussion regarding requests for customer information by US and foreign governments, at reasonable cost and omitting proprietary information."
AT&T's Contract With the CIA – One of Payoffs for Lavishly Funding Obama & Other Political Campaigns?
|By: Kevin Gosztola Thursday November 7, 2013 11:10 am
AT&T, one of the largest telecommunications companies, has a more than $10 million contract with the CIA to provide the intelligence agency with data on calls that cross the company's networks all over the world. The company provides the information for "overseas counterterrorism investigations," and targeting foreign suspects, but the information being provided to the CIA sometimes involves data from Americans' international calls.

Is a good beach, not so big but with a lot of people, however, during the winter you may walk on it without any problem and enjoy.
It is named because it was manufactured until 1940 mineral lime kilns that were near the beach. Beautiful beach, used for jumping to parasailing. With 800 m long, is one of the most looked for surfing. It is easy to get there. It is beside Guarita beach. There are toilets and food available for purchase on the beach.

My husband plants tomato and peppers etc each year. He plants directly under the eves of the house and the water runs off the roof with each rain storm or in the spring run off. I believe this is not good for the soil he is planting the garden in since we have an asphalt roof and I can see the debris from the roof on the soil. He says not a problem, I still have a hard time eating them without thinking I am getting some sort of poison in our systems. Suggestions?
Rate This FAQ
I don't have a definitive answer but researching the OSHA website, they answered this question and I have attached the answer to your question about water catchment from roofs for vegetable gardens.
For the full article go to http://en.allexperts.com/q/Occupational-OSHA-Environmental-1417/Cisterns-water-purity.htm
Here is an excerpt from that response regarding water catchment:
Nearly all types of roofs have been - and are being - used for rainwater collection, but some are better than others.
The best roofing material for rainwater catchment is uncoated stainless steel or factory-enameled galvanized steel with a baked-enamel, certified lead-free finish. With any metal coating, ask the manufacturer whether the coating contains heavy metals (red paint used on metal often contained lead in the past). Any existing metal roof being used for a potable water catchment system should be tested for lead.
Wood shakes, concrete or clay tiles, and asphalt shingles are more likely than other materials to support the growth of mold, algae, bacteria and moss, which can potentially contaminate water supplies. Treated wood shingles may leach toxic preservatives, and asphalt shingles may leach small amounts of petroleum compounds. In addition to the health concerns, a porous or rough roof surface holds back some of the water that would otherwise make it into the cistern. Asphalt roofing has a "collection efficiency" of about 85 percent while enameled steel has a collection efficiency of more than 95 percent. With asphalt roofing, more of the rainwater stays on the roof in a typical rainstorm (i.e., the roof stays wet), though the actual percentage will depend on the duration of the storm.
(note the entire URL - http....=2050 needs to be on one line).
Painted roofs, certain wood shingles and certain asphalt shingles may impart objectionable taste or odor.
If an old roof is used as the catchment area, if it is under tree branches, if the building relies on wood heat, or if the air is too polluted, you need to be wary of elevated contaminant or toxin levels. Roofs with wood shakes, concrete or clay tiles, or asphalt shingles can support unwanted biological growth, such as mold or bacteria, that will require adequate treatment. Some materials, such as terne coating, lead solder, or treated wood, can leach unwanted toxins. (again, the entire url needs to be copied into the browser)

Absolutely Perfect!
Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) enjoyed one week in this beautiful villa and we couldn't be more happier. The place is accurate to the photos and felt so spacious. Beds were soft, couch was cozy for evening movies or the odd morning cartoon and the kitchen was fantastic for meal prep and getting snacks ready for our daily adventures. (and our kids loved all the channels!!!) The location is perfect, so close to the public beach and easy access to Atlantis. We loved strolling around the marina and loved that there were amenities only a short walk. We brought home Anthony's pizza one night which at $16 for large was a steal! we also had access to a liquor store, grocery store and souvenirs only a short walk away. Per Gigi's suggestion we had our driver take us to Solomon's grocery market and was able to stock up on necessities (but did buy additional milk and other smaller items locally). Solomon's is comparable to any North American store, beautiful produce and great choice. Gigi was helpful prior to our arrival with great information, during our stay and when I left a critical item in the room after checking out, she quickly ensured it was sent back home to me. We loved it and can't wait to come again!
Exceeded expectations by a long shot
First, they left a car for us at the airport which was very convenient. Second, when as we pulled up the property and the ocean came into view it took our breath away. Third, the facility and grounds keeping is clean, well-designed, open and lots of other wonderful adjectives. By far my favorite place I have ever stayed. The photos do not do it justice. I want to design my shower after this place. The Atlantic view point is windy, and the design of the building takes that potentially neutral/negative aspect and channels it into an amazing perk - meaning the front sliding door can be left wide open or just a crack to let the fresh breeze come in through the living space and through the bedroom at night to keep the air moving and fresh and cool, and also ventilating the bathroom on its way out the back of the building. There were no bugs or any other pests at all but if there had been, the screened porch would do a great job keeping them out. You can watch the sunrise from the building, or from a lower covered platform near the beach, or from the rocks out 30ft into the water past the beach, it's very satisfying to watch the sun peek up over the ocean horizon. Those rocks also offer a really fun place to do some simple exploring and rock-climbing. The hosts are very friendly and responsive and do everything they can to make your stay just what you want it to be. They do have internet access, but it is not robust enough for streaming video. The do, however have TVs and dvd players and around 50-100 movies on site you can use. Hopefully, though, that's not what you come to the bahamas to do... There is a grocery store about 5-minutes down the road with a small sellection of fresh fruit and vegetables and a few isles of canned/packaged foods. The kitchen is well enough stocked to do most things you would want. A world's top 10 beach is just an hour drive north, and Dean's deep blue hole is a must see a few miles to the south with snorkle gear. The hosts had a few sets they were willing to lend out, which were invaluable since we didn't have our own and couldn't find a place that would rent them out. Hamilton's caves were pretty fun to explore also, though they are a bit hard to find even with help from the locals.
Absolutely perfect
We had a wonderful stay at Monticello! I came with my husband, 2.5 year old son, brother-in-law, and 6-year-old nephew. I was worried initially about how kid friendly it was going to be but it was perfect. Lots of sand toys - pails, snorkels, bocce balls, floaties, beach chairs, boogie board,... tennis & badminton rackets, bicycles... Unfortunately the kayaks had blown away in a wind storm before we arrived so we rented from a local guy that Barbara had recommended and had a great day visiting the cays off North Palmetto beach. Clean. Lots of towels. Washer & dryer. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of fans - we didn't need to use the AC because it cooled off a fair bit at night. Lots of lounging areas around the property - my favourite was the comfy couch on the back deck! We rented a minivan from BigE's car rental which was great - didn't test it out on the lighthouse beach road but otherwise even some of the bumpy roads were fine! They met us at the airport and guided us to the property which was very helpful after a long journey getting there to begin with. Kelly - the manager - was very helpful. Booked us a reservation at the nearest restaurant - Tippy's for our first night which was great. Offered to buy groceries before our arrival and book a private chef. Our favourite spots were the Bank Road Deli - great cold cuts, cheeses, sandwiches, croissants and coffee!!; The local nature preserve was beautiful and fun; Ten Bay Beach; Governor's Habour friday night fish fry; the Ocean Hole; The Beach House Restaurant... Felt very safe at the property and on the island in general. Barbara was most helpful with setting up our stay. Would recommend to anyone! Hope to be able to come back again one day. Thank you for sharing your place!

May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month and it's up to us to spread the word, and lead by example. We all ride, but we all drive too so when we are behind the wheel it is important to take extra care when driving.

var onlineAdCalc =eval($('#onlineAdSection').val()+$('#onlineAdSize').val());
$('#onlineAdSection') and

For example,

Peanuts, an unusual fruit
Q: Where and how do peanuts grow?
A: Peanuts grow well in any sandy place where it's warm for 120 to 140 days,
moderately rainy (25 to 50 inches yearly), and no frost. The plant originated
in South America, perhaps Brazil or Bolivia, and now is grown worldwide. Georgia
grows nearly half the US crop.
Farmers plant peanuts by seed. The seed sprouts, grows about 18 inches, and
bears light green leaves. Yellow flowers appear and bloom for about a month.
The plant pollinates itself usually but occasionally bees transfer the pollen
to another plant.
After fertilization and the flowers fade, the young fruit forms a pointed stalk
called a peg. The peg points and grows downward. The fruit (i.e., peanuts) develop
a woody outer shell (the peanut shell) and the pointed fruits bury themselves:
in the ground!
They continue to mature underground but ripen at different times-anywhere from
90 to over 150 days which makes harvesting them tricky.
Southerners, before the Civil War and often to this day, call peanuts: ground
nuts, ground peas, pindar, goobers, and goober peas. The names pindar and goober
were African tribal names that slaves remembered.
As the names imply, sometimes people think of a peanut as a nut. It isn't a
nut at all but, a legume like beans and peas.

Significant DNV standard changes
Medical Staff Leader Insider, March 15, 2012
Want to receive articles like this one in your inbox? Subscribe to Medical Staff Leader Insider!
When The Greeley Company discusses accreditation, it is usually centered on The Joint Commission, not Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program or Det Norske Veritas (DNV). As DNV recently made updates to its medical staff standards (effective January 15), here is a highlight of some of the more significant changes, with additions being underlined.
MS.8: Appointment
SR.1e is a new requirement that mandates additional information be gathered prior to initial appointment to the medical staff.
"…receipt of database profiles from NPDB, OIG Medicare/Medicaid Exclusions"
MS.12: Clinical Privileges
SR.4a now allows outpatient practitioners to order appropriate outpatient services that previously were not allowed being granted clinical privileges.
"There shall be a provision to authorize LIPS to order outpatient services that are within their scope of service to order"
MS.13: Temporary Clinical Privileges
SR.1 now includes the following underlined language, which allows a broader group of individuals—not just the medical executive committee—to recommend to the CEO (or designee), to grant temporary privileges to an applicant.
"…on the recommendation of a member of the medical executive committee, president of the medic al staff, or medical director (as defined by the medical staff)"
SR.2 now allows a grant of temporary privileges up to 120 days, instead of the previous 90 days (initial grant of 30 days with two subsequent re-grants of 30 days each).
"…for a period of time not to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days"
SR.3a and SR.3c now require primary verification of education and state professional licenses where before only verification was required.
SR.3a : "…primary verification of education (AMA/AOA profile is acceptable)"
SR.3c: "…primary verification of State professional licenses"
There is also an addition regarding emergency and disaster privileges in SR.4. The guidelines are not as prescriptive as The Joint Commission's, but there must be language in the bylaws that addresses these issues.
"The medical staff bylaws shall include a process for approving practitioners for care of patients in the event of an emergency or disaster."
No matter the accreditation agency, it is best practice to review your bylaws yearly, especially in regard to any new regulatory changes.

Contender Countdown: With Oscar host locked now we wait for 'Interstellar'
Oscar finally has a host, Neil Patrick Harris, but does she have a frontrunner yet? Not really.
This has been a curious awards season so far in terms of the Best Picture race. There are a number of potential contenders that could win it all, but even the films that have already screened such as "The Imitation Game," "The Theory of Everything," "Birdman" and "Boyhood" haven't really separated themselves from the pack (not yet, anyway). That will all change when Christopher Nolan's "Interstellar" begins to screen for critics, pundits and the industry soon.

Experience with Faber vent insert?
netski1971May 8, 2012
Appliance store is recommending a Faber inca pro plus insert INPL3622SS with a 1200 cfm blower for a 36 inch CC range top with 6 burners -- no grill or griddle. Can't find very much consumer review information. From what I've seen Modern Aire seems to be the vent of choice but I was hoping for something less expensive. Also would like something fairly quiet for an open floor plan. Faber site says they run to about 7 sones but no specs for the particular blower and insert. Any help on the Faber or suggestions on other brands would be appreciated.

About Me
Hi! I'm Kiley, welcome to my little MM bubble
I've always wanted to be a clothing designer. It's a shame I can't sew.
Some comments I've received from some very nice souls!
"Kiley is GREAT. She has really great energy and you would be crazy to not work with her. She is so much fun to work with. She is funny yet professional. OH YEAH AND SHE IS AN AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER!!! Gotta love Kiley."
"As a model, working with Kiley was an experience to remember for me. She is female, which was a plus and she makes you feel right at home. I've worked with Kiley about 3 times in a matter of a month and I dont regret a thing. She's young and talented, what more can you ask for and she's not picky at all. She is always up to explore different areas and is really funny too. I really wish she had never left Illinois because Kiley was and still is my Favorite Photographer!"
"Kiley is really great and laid back to work with! I like that she's a fun person and has a creative spark. Her stuff is real hip and vibrant, with edge just the way I like"
"Kiley is a very professional photographer, but whats really makes her special is that she is full of creativity and enthusiasm. Allowing her to be a pleasure to work with and an overall good time!"

power for towing.Unstoppable. Comfortable family vehicle
Could use a little more torque, and better mpg.
Excellent For What It Is Made To Do , Tow.best Of Both Worlds.car / Truck — You get what you pay for.You never buy one of these trucks because you want a vehicle that gets 30 mpg. The 7.4l, 454 was the best drive train ever for this truck.On long rides, it's as comfortable as an suv.With the full size bed, you can bring a ton of stuff with you (literally)

Fuel economy was terrible
Red Neck Awesome — That engine is a beast, it takes a lot of gas so I had to buy a little honda for my daily commute to and from work (22 miles each way), on the other hand it is build like a rock. It's 26 years old and still fires like a champ.

From the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics Frank Kendall One of the seven goals of Better Buying Power 2.0 is to improve the professionalism of the total acquisition workforce. I thought it might be useful to provide some specificity about what I have in mind when I talk about professionalism. The following is based on various experiences over my career, including some formal education on the nature of professionalism in the military, including at venues like West Point and the Army War College, in my on-the-job training in program management and systems engineering by various Air Force colonels in the Ballistic Missile Office, and by […]

Whatever I'm using matplotlib, Open-Flash-Charts or other charts frameworks I always end needing to find a way to set x/y scales limits and intervals since builtins are not enough smart (or not at all...)
just try this in pylab (ipyhton -pylab) to understand what I mean:
In [1]: a, b, x = np.zeros(10), np.ones(10), np.arange(10)
In [2]: plot(x, a); plot(x, b)
you'll see just and empty frame grid hiding the 2 horizontal lines under it's its top and bottom borders.
I wonder if there is some algorithm around (that I can port to python) to set smartly top and bottom y limits and steps and also calculate every how many values show the x thick.
For example, let's say I have 475 measures as
(datetime, temperature) as
(x, y) with
2011-01-15 10:45:00 < datetime < 2011-01-17 02:20:00
(one every 5 minutes) and
26.5 < temperature < 28.3
My suggestion for this particular case could be to set:
26.4 <= y_scale <= 28.4with a thick every
and a tick on
x_scale every 12 items (once per hour).
But what about if I have just 20 measures over 20 days with
-21.5 < temperature < 38.7, and so on? Is there a standardized method around?

Same for me, spectator mode works, but the game crashes. Haven't tried too hard yet, though.
Posted a bug report on WineHQ, head over and confirm it if you are having the same issue.
Junior Member
This worked for me right up until I was loading the game.
I reached 95% loaded, and other players were still loading, when the game just stopped doing anything. I most likely should have done this in an AI game, so that it doesn't look like I'm a leaver
SO CLOSE! Agh!
Fixed!! - Linux only - can't comment on Mac (though from reading the forum they've nearly fixed their client too)
Massive thanks to the iLoL team over at http://boompje.net/ been keeping a close eye on their fix and it seems that it's either been released or will be soon, they stated that they had fixed the problem earlier today but have been working on distributing the patch for their users through their custom-patcher.
Anyway I jumped straight over to the server where the heap allocation ntdll patch was saved and dug out the patch for this from*: http://uz.sns.it/~ranma42/iLoL/spectator-fix-v2/ - I already use the 0001-ntdll... patch so I downloaded the second (0002-imm32...), applied both patches to the wine-1.4rc6 source code and re-compiled. Just tested a custom game and it worked perfectly :-D
Was a little unsure if this was the best way to proceed - as there were .dll.so (override?) files for wine there also... I concluded these would be for Mac and that the re-compile is always the safest bet.
Given that boompje posts on here himself (or on behalf of the project) I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you are sure what you're doing - I sure boompje will come over and post here once they are certain of the fix.
Thank you very much to Boompje and the team, especially ranma42
*(Hope and presume that it was up for a reason I'm not being rude posting this link - obviously I take no credit WHATSOEVER)
Finally as I was fairly new to compiling I pretty much used this guide (obviously had to tweak the code as per my OS) and a dash of common sense. Would strongly recommend not installing a patched version of wine over your current stable version and instead installing them side-by-side so you can use both:
@FinrodUrFelagund: As expected, I fail at compiling wine. I've never succeeded at doing so.
Would you be so kind as upload the two concerned compiled dlls somewhere. That would be awesome.
Thanks in advance!
Actually, it seems it's a bit more complex than just changing dlls. As you said, there are those .so files which may have changed too. I tried using the .so files, but it didn't work.
If you have time and bandwidth, you could upload your compiled wine directory (mine contains the directories bin lib lib64 (if it is a 64bits build) and share) on mediafire for example.
