Does anyone know of any landlords or buildings that do not discriminate against dog breeds? Thanks!!
It's not discrimination with regard to the dog. Most dog owners refuse to carry any type of insurance. Not to mention the wear and tear on a unit if dogs are present. The landlord doesn't want to be sued or held responsible if your dog bites someone on his/her property. I don't blame them.
Try a private owner and make sure you get some insurance. No one wants to be bitten by a Rotweiler if that's the breed that you have.
Not everyone LIKES dogs. I wished that people understood that!!
Have you tried calling around? What breed is your dog?
Hi! You will have better luck with independent owners and certain neighborhoods. If landlords have trouble renting because of the neighborhood, they will take any dogs. There are many Rogers Park Apartments. Also, Google "Dog Friendly Apartments Chicago". Good Luck.

In all my 40 years in employment I have never been in a union or felt the need to go on strike. I do however, fully support the men employed by SOVA at the recycling sites. Under the conditions there work they do an excellent job.
My beef is with Sheffield City Council, Veolia and SOVA, where there is too much management involvement, which reduces the amount of money in the budget for the front line workforce.
To have 3 management structures is ridiculous, SCC should take back in house, they could not do a worse job and more money would be available for the front line. Also SCC would not be looking to make a profit for shareholders, as is the case for Veolia and SOVA, which again reduces the pot of money.
Do not go on a brewery trip organised by any of the 3 organisations.

Autologous plasma is endowed with properties that speed up healing, hemostasis, and adhesiveness, in addition to growth factors. Through an established protocol, it was possible to isolate thrombin, as well as the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) fractions. The purpose of this study was to analyze autologous use of thrombin and PPP to foster adhesion between an abdominal dermoadipose flap and the aponeurotic surface in abdominal dermolipectomies.
The data from 40 patients who underwent abdominal dermolipectomies were analyzed, with 20 patients using thrombin and autologous PPP (Plasma group) and 20 patients with no intervention (Control group). An attempt was made to assess adhesive power by quantifying the serohematic liquid volume gauged during the postoperative days (POD), and also noting the incidence of seroma. Other variables such as age and body mass index (BMI) were also analyzed.
The reduction in the aspiration drain debit was statistically relevant only on the first POD in the Plasma group. There was no reduction in the incidence of seroma in these patients. Similarly, age and BMI did not influence these outcomes.
The PPP fostered adhesion between the abdominal dermoadipose flap and the aponeurotic surface only on the first POD and had no influence whatsoever on the incidence of seroma. There are few reports on the use of PPP for plastic surgery, particularly the autologous type, opening up possibilities for further research projects to expand its use.

A (t, n) threshold signature scheme is one which enables any t or more shareholders to cooperatively generate a group signature. Based on the traceability of the signers, threshold signatures can further be classified into (1) threshold traceable signatures, where the identities of the signers, who generate the signature, can be traced by the system; and (2) threshold untraceable signatures, where the signers of a signature cannot be traced. This paper distinguishes the applications of threshold signatures of both types and also proposes a threshold untraceable signature scheme. The new signature scheme can be augmented to give the original signers the ability to prove that they are the true signers.

Was 50 Cent Hittin' Elise Neal??
- By Bossip Staff Categories: NewsPosted by Bossip Staff
Elise Neal on her relationship with 50 cent:
"Right now we're really just cool, but it would be the understatement of the year for me to say it was always just that. We're friends enough to where he knows that if we're doing something I'm not gonna go run and tell (U.S. gossip magazine) Us Weekly. That's not my personality."
On screen video romance (Follow My Lead) that leaked into real life…how sweet. She sounds like she was feelin that "magic stick" just a lil bit.
In other Elise Neal news, she might be playing the role of Superhead in the Karrine Steffans biopic. Sounds like an interesting role with a lot of sucking and fu*king going on. Elise better start training those jaws ASAP.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Air Canada expects new planes, labour contracts to aid in cost-cutting efforts
TORONTO - Air Canada (TSX:AC.B) is pushing ahead with plans to cut costs by 15 per cent even as it increases capacity and its low-cost carrier Rouge takes off this summer, airline executives said Monday.
"We've been very clear that we will be unrelenting on costs and creatively respond to competition in any way we can," Air Canada president and chief executive told an investors meeting.
"Cost transformation is continuous."
The company said Monday that it had been doing better than expected on cost-containment during the second quarter, which ends June 30.
Air Canada's adjusted cost per available seat mile will decrease by between 0.5 per cent and 1.5 per cent compared with the second quarter of 2012, a full percentage point better than the previous estimate.
It said the anticipated increase to domestic capacity this year will be possible due to schedule changes, but looking forward to 2014, the company said the airline's new 787 Dreamliners and reconfigured seating will boost traffic.
"The introduction of the five Boeing 777s aircraft in a higher density configuration as well as the deployment of the 787 into service will provide significant cost advantages," Rovinescu said.
Air Canada also sees room to grow in international markets.
Rouge is set to begin flying to European and Caribbean destinations from Montreal and Toronto starting July 1.
The Montreal-based airline expects to have Rouge operating in more than 40 routes by 2014 and said Monday it plans to increase the company's overall full-year 2014 system capacity by nine to 11 per cent when compared to the full year 2013.
Air Canada also expects to get to reach the limit of 50 aircraft for Rouge — as mandated by its collective agreement — by 2015.
Air Canada said Rouge will do better than previous experiments because its cost structure will be lower and will pack more seats on its planes.
"These markets are not new to us, there are many more like those in Europe that we have not been able to participate in because of our cost structure and the product offering and Rouge is going to open the doors to many of those new markets," said Ben Smith, chief commercial officer.
"Many routes that were not viable for Air Canada in the past will now become possibilities."
The company also said that the stability it now enjoys after labour contracts and pension issues were settled earlier this year will allow it to focus on growth plans.
"There's no doubt that there are still challenges ahead," Rovinescu said. "But with the key labour and pension risks behind us, the execution of our strategic priorities is now our No. 1 focus."
"We will continue to attack costs, continue to develop new sources of revenue, improve the customer experience and adapt to the competitive environment."
Two of Air Canada's domestic rivals, WestJet and Porter, are also growing their alliances with foreign international carriers and planning to expand their own domestic fleets.
WestJet Airlines (TSX:WJA) is set to launch its new Encore regional service later this month using Bombardier Q400 turboprops in Alberta and British Columbia. Meanwhile Porter, which offers regional service from its base in Toronto, has announced plans to add Bombardier CS100 jets to its fleet of Q400s in 2016.
Air Canada now expects 2013 domestic capacity will grow by 1.5 per cent to 2.5 per cent over 2012 levels — a full percentage point above the levels announced last month, when Air Canada issued its first quarter results.
It also projected that seating capacity in the second quarter will be between two and three per cent above the comparable period last year.
The Canadian Transportation Agency ruled last month that Air Canada must pay higher compensation to passengers who are bumped from overbooked domestic flight and gave the airline until late June to submit new guidelines.
The federal agency said that Air Canada's the existing practice of paying $100 cash or $200 travel voucher is unreasonable but the airline has the right to appeal the CTA ruling.
Air Canada Class B shares were up close to one per cent at $2.29 at midday on the Toronto Stock Exchange, after reaching a daytime high of $2.38 per share earlier in the day.
WestJet stock was down 2.5 per cent to $21.14.

U.S. judge orders release of young Gitmo detainee
A federal judge in Washington who earlier ordered the release of some Algerians at Guantánamo to Bosnia on Wednesday further ordered the military to free a Gitmo captive from Chad who was captured at age 14.
A U.S. judge on Wednesday ordered the military to release one of its Guantánamo Bay detainees, a 21-year-old man who has been detained and accused of being a terrorist since he was 14.
Mohamed el Gharani, who is of Chad nationality but had livedin Saudi Arabia, should be released from the U.S. prison in Cuba "forthwith,'' U.S. District Judge Richard Leon said in a ruling from the bench.
The military had accused Gharani of being part of al-Qaeda, working for the Taliban and fighting American forces in Afghanistan. However, Leon said those accusations were based on testimony from other Guantánamo Bay detainees, which he found unreliable.
Gharani listened to the ruling by telephone from Cuba but did not react.
He could be on his way home to his family in a few weeks, lawyer Zackary Katznelson said. "Judge Leon did justice today.''
The government can appeal Leon's decision.
"We're disappointed by the ruling and will consider our options,'' Justice Department spokesman Dean Boyd said.

CEATEC 2008: Fujitsu's mobile phone breaks into 2 parts that can be used separately
At CEATEC 2008, Fujitsu and NTT Docomo are showcasing a concept phone that can be split into two pieces, a screen and a keyboard segment. The so-called Separeeto Keitai, separate handset, is supposed to enable users to make a phone call and write emails at the same time. The parts are joined by a magnet and connected via Bluetooth. The touchscreen reacts to the way the users are holding it. Read More
Toshiba showcases super-small projector
It seems development of micro projectors picks up steam in Japan. Following Tokyo-based venture firm Nippon Signal ("We've built the world's smallest projector"), Toshiba recently exhibited a projector the size of an iPod at one of the company's own exhibitions in Japan. The device was already on display at IFA 2008, a consumer electronics trade show that took… Read More

I went to the so-called Ply Exhibition [JP] (which ended yesterday), made some pictures but actually left mildly disappointed. The phones (featuring… Read More
Quick and dirty: What Panasonic will be showing off at IFA 2008

Not Australia, Japan introduces the world's smallest projector
Japan might have lost a battle in patent application filing to the US, but even a fantastic country such as Australia can't beat them when it comes to miniaturization. It looks like Tokyo-based Nippon Signal (and not Mint Wireless based out of Australia) managed to develop what might be the smallest projector in the world. The device was recently showcased at Exhibition Micromachine/MEMS… Read More

Pioneer said the new discs will be compatible with existing Blu-ray hardware but are read-only at the moment. The company is currently… Read More

Below is the text of the response I sent the editors of this scandal
sheet re the referenced article.
I really resent the rhetorical tone of this article, as well as the
assumption that every single time some lawmakers try to pick up the
slack left by the deterioration of the traditional family they are
"attacking the family." Most children (in case you don't live in the
real world) don't even have a family, or parents who even feed them
breakfast in the morning, let alone who teach them morals. Some of
these fundamentalist LDS seem to think that if only they could impose
their values on everyone, all the world's evils would instantly be
solved. Got an announcement: that was Satan's plan too.
I was just getting quite ticked at Governor Davis for his bungling of
California's energy crisis, but you can bet he is going to get a call
from me now-- in SUPPORT of every one of these bills. I'm going back
into his corner, where I'm going to stay (allegorically) until the
Affirmation people or the PFLAG people, or whoever it may be drag me out to go support their cause in the next and nearest available Gay
Pride Parade, where on one side I will hold the hand of my gay brother
while with the other hand I will wave my temple recommend and a large
poster of my high school students, who unfortunately know more about sex,drugs, parental abdication of responsibility, and every other
societal evil than I ever hoped to know.

The American far-right isn't known for fawning over the French any more than the French are known for fawning over the American right. Nonetheless, in criticizing President Obama's response to the earthquake in Haiti, French journalists seem to have found themselves an improbable new friend: Rush Limbaugh.
In Le Monde's Corine Lesnes cites Limbaugh in a heap of criticism to the American response in Haiti, saying Limbaugh "accused [the president] of courting the African American community at a moment when they feel abandoned by their 'post-racial' president." Le Figaro's Yves Thréard is similarly skeptical of the American president's motives: "Each engagement hides intentions. Barack Obama, low in the polls, criticized for his foreign policy, is seizing the opportunity to restore his image."

| A play to read with children The little frog and the moon, a tale from Iraqi folklore by Talal Hassam Easy English Times editor Lorraine Ruston, Dr. Anis Behnam Naoum, and publisher Betty Malmgren in 2009. (Editor's note: We met Dr. Naoum at the International TESOL Conference in Denver, Colorado in 2009. The play below was written by Dr. Naoum's friend, a well-known Iraqi writer for children. Naoum is a professor at the University of Mosul in Iraq. We have taken the liberty of editing the play for length.) Historical information: In the old days, people believed that when the moon was eclipsed, it was swallowed by a whale. Therefore, they played on tambourines, tins and trays so the frightened whale would let the moon go. SCENE I: Forest, Pool, Night, Sounds of Tambourines, Voices of Children. Frog: These sounds are deafening. They have been playing on tambourines and chanting all evening. They believe that the whale has swallowed the moon. Oh, which one of us didnĺt believe in such a thing in his childhood! Listen dear ones. Itĺs an interesting and useful story. Iĺll tell it to you. But please remember that I was then just a little frog. As the moon disappeared tonight, my mother also disappeared one night. I spent many days looking for her, but in vainů SCENE II: Forest, Pool, Night, The Little-Frog comes in. The Little-Frog: (Exhausted and desperate) Mama, mama, mama. Grandma Frog: Sonny! Your absence worried me, Come here, sonny. The Little-Frog: I couldnĺt find mama. The Old Grandma Frog: Wait dear. Mama may come tomorrow. The Little-Frog: Thatĺs what you told me yesterday. And the day before yesterday. The Old Grandma Frog: Letĺs wait; she may be at a faraway place. The Little-Frog: Itĺs my mistake. She said many times ôIĺll go away if you make me mad." And I've made her mad. Grandma Frog: Actually, a mother never gets mad at her little child. The Little-Frog: (Shaking his head) Mama got madů Grandma Frog: Even if she does, it wonĺt last for long. The Little Frog: I donĺt blame her; It was my mistake. She used to tell me ôdonĺt get away from the pool, the stork might see you and ů" I went far. The stork came upon me suddenly; he was about to swallow me if I hadn't jumped into the pool. And ů (Bursting into tears) and my mother was angry. The Old Grandma Frog: Stop weeping, sonny. Mama will come. The Little-Frog: (Looking around) I wish I knew where she went. (The moon glitters in the pool. The Little-Frog shouts.) The moon. Grandma Frog: The moon! The Little-Frog: Yes, she said ôIĺll go to the moon.ö Iĺll stay here till mama forgives me and comes back. The Old Grandma Frog goes out. The Little-Frog is left alone. The Little-Frog: I know youĺre on the moon, mama. I also know youĺre looking at me and hearing me too. Iĺve made a mistake, mama. I went far away from the pool. Forgive me; I wonĺt do it again. Come back; I need you. (The Old He-Frog enters and stealthily approaches The Little-Frog). The Little-Frog: Who are you! The Old He-Frog: Me? I, came from a distant place. Iĺm hungry. The Little-Frog: Mosquitoes are in plenty here. Catch as many as you wish. The Old He-Frog: I like mosquitoes; but Iĺm tired. Iĺll eat this ů moon. The Little-Frog: No, let the moon alone! The Old He-Frog: Iĺll eat it. It isnĺt yours. The Little-Frog: I wonĺt let you touch it; mama is there. The Old He-Frog: Mama! The Little-Frog: Please donĺt touch the moon. The Old He-Frog: But Iĺm hungry. The Little-Frog: Iĺll catch enough mosquitoes for you. Just sit under the tree and rest. Iĺll bring you the mosquitoes. The Old He-Frog: O.K. Hurry up; Iĺm hungry. The Little-Frog runs about catching mosquitoes. He puts them in a fig leaf to give to the Old He-Frog. The Little-Frog: Here you are. Here is your meal. The Old He-Frog: Seems youĺre alone here. The Little-Frog: No, Iĺm not. I live with my mother; but sheĺs now on ů The Old He-Frog: This place is quite and beautiful. Iĺll stay with you one day or two. The Little-Frog: (Standing by the pool) The mean old frog is fast asleep. Damn him. I wish I were a stork, even for one minute so that I could swallow him and save mama and the moon (Yawning). Ah, I feel drowsy. The moon is sleepy too. She could be tired like me. SCENE III: Forest, Pool, Night, The Little-Frog straightens himself up. The Little-Frog: The moon should have got up by now. Let me hurry before the Old He-Frog gets up. Who knows, I might see mama looking from the moon and ... My God! Heĺs done it. He has eaten the moon. The Old He-Frog: Whatĺs wrong? The Little-Frog: The moon, the moon has grown smaller. Iĺve brought you plenty of mosquitoes. The Old He-Frog: What youĺve given me was not enough; so I ate part of the moon. The Little-Frog: You criminal. The Little-Frog: No, no (begging). Please, donĺt touch the moon again. Iĺll catch you enough mosquitoes. The Old He-Frog: O. K., go ahead. (The Old He-Frog singing. The Little-Frog hunting mosquitoes here and there.) The Little-Frog: (Stops out of breath) This is a big amount. I hope itĺs enough for him. Help yourself. Here you are. The Old He-Frog: (Taking the fig-leaf) It seems that Iĺll be satisfied this time. The Little-Frog: Iĺll hunt for you .. (Kneeling down exhausted) Iĺll hunt for you .. after a while .. another amount .. to take with you .. If you leave tomorrow. The Old He-Frog: I wonĺt stay till tomorrow. The Little-Frog: You mean youĺll leave today? The Old He-Frog: Yes, Iĺll leave today. The Old He-Frog: I wonĺt forget your generosity, patience and intelligence. (Leaving waving) Good- bye. The Little-Frog: Good bye. SCENE IV Grandma Frog: Calm down, sonny. Stop it. Iĺm your grandma. The Little Frog: Who! (Stopping hitting her) O, my God! Grandma Frog: Calm down dear. Whatĺs going on? The Little Frog: The Old He-Frog is eating the moon. Grandma Frog: The moon! This is impossible, sonny. The Little Frog: Come and see it yourself (Catching her hand and leading her to the pool) Look there. Can you see? He has eaten half of her. Grandma Frog: O, sonny! The moon canĺt be eaten, sonnyů The Little Frog: Look, thereĺs only half of her. Grandma Frog: Come on. The moon is not in the pool; it is in the sky. The Little Frog: What! In the sky? Grandma Frog: Sure, look. (Pointing to the sky). The Little Frog: (Looking at the moon amazed) My God! Grandma Frog: Sheĺs there and no one can reach her. The Little Frog: But Iĺve seen her growing smaller and smaller day by day. Grandma Frog: Youĺll grow up, sonny; and youĺll know that the moon appears as a crescent first, then she grows larger and larger till she becomes a full moon. After that, she grows smaller and smaller till she disappears. And then she becomes a crescent once again and so on endlessly. The Little Frog: (Weeping) Grandma. Grandma Frog: (Taking him to her chest) Sonny. The Little Frog: Be frank with me; Iĺm no longer a Little Frog. Grandma Frog: Yes, youĺre no longer little, sonny (Silence). Mama may come one day. Letĺs wait. SCENE V Sounds of Tambourines and voices of Children. The Frog coming nearer to the audience. The Frog: My dear, listen to me. Theyĺre still playing on their tambourines and singing: O whale... Let our high moon go... If you donĺt, Iĺll drum on my tray. But one day, theyĺll grow up and know that the moon canĺt be swallowed by the whale. |

This FAQ consists of answers to several frequently asked questions on the IRC newsgroups and the DALnet IRC Network help channels. Please email questions to email@example.com. Send revisions, comments, additions, or deletions to email@example.com
2.1 - What are Services?
Services is what allows a user to "own" and "control" their nickname and channel. It consists of four services for users to access, NickServ, ChanServ, MemoServ and HelpServ. - Do not be fooled by imitations.
NickServ provides nickname registration and enforcement. The owner of a registered nickname can manually kill anyone using his or her nickname or configure NickServ to do so automatically. Nickname registration is also required before you can register a channel or access MemoServ.
ChanServ provides channel registration. The person who registers a channel (known as the "founder") can control what modes are allowed on the channel, who is a channel operator, as well as set other channel parameters. ChanServ also supports a list of people to be automatically kicked or banned from the channel.
MemoServ allows people with registered nicknames to exchange memos. These are short messages that are stored for subsequent retrieval.
HelpServ provides the standard ircII help service. Note not all clients are able to access or use this information.
DALnet was the first IRC Network to use such devices as these services (excluding HelpServ) to control its enirvonment. (And actually use them so that they *worked* properly) Services allows a user to eliminate hostile channel takeovers and nick collides. Channel wars are very difficult to have as Services will overrule anyone not authorized.
There are a lot of other nets out there proclaiming to have channel and nickname registration, however these are NOT DALnet related. While some claim to be DALnet and have our code for services, these rumors are false. DALnet code is copywrited by DALnet for use on DALnet.
2.2 - How do I register my nickname? To register your nickname - first find a nick that is not already
registered by someone else. You must change to that nick in order to
Once you have your nick selected you may type:
Please do not type {password} :) Replace it with a word or pass code you
can remember - WRITE DOWN YOUR NICKSERV PASSWORD.
If you run into trouble while registering /join #help - they will aide
you in registering your nick step by step, or visit our NickServ pages and follow
their examples.
2.3 - How do I register my channel? First you MUST have Channel ops on the channel you wish to register. You may then type:
{channelname} should be replaced with the name of the channel you wish
to register. {password} should be replaced with the password you wish to
use on the channel. {description} is a sentence which describes the
If you are successfull in registering your channel, you can type:
This will verify the information you gave ChanServ (excluding the
password) WRITE DOWN YOUR CHANSERV PASSWORD.
If you run into trouble while registering /join #help - they will aide
you in registering your channel step by step, or visit our ChanServ pages and follow
their examples.
2.4 - Why won't services talk to me? There are several reasons why services will not answer.
1) you misspelled /msg or ChanServ/NickServ/MemoServ (dont feel bad it
happens a lot :))
2) If you are using mIRC, you might be looking in the wrong box for the
services feedback. Goto Window and select status - this should bring forth
a window for you to see services responding to you.
3) Services sometimes gets lagged. If you get frustrated, try another
4) Services is not there. Yes even services needs a reboot sometimes.
5) You are being ignored by services. Even DALnet experiences its rude
and troublesome users - to save our users from getting their nick stolen or
channels taken, services will ignore that individual. If it appears
services is ignoring you email email@example.com
6) Another possibility is that your IRC client is set to ignore the old
EFnet NickServ. Type /ignore or whatever pulls up your ignore list and see
if NickServ is there. Type /ignore NickServ none or /ignore NickServ -all.
7) It is also possible that you have a script or client that
automatically ignores nicknames that send you messages many times in quick
succession. If NickServ or ChanServ are on your ignore list and keep coming
back when you remove them, this is probably your problem. Sometimes putting
lines like /floodok NickServ in you .ircrc file will solve this problem.
If you experience any trouble with services responding, /join #help and
they will gladly aide you to asses the problem.
2.5 - How can I tell what nicknames or channels are registered? Services has a way of checking for already registered channels and
nicknames. If you have a particular channel you wish to register and want
to check, type:
Don't forget to replace {channelname} with the name of the channel you
are looking for.
If you have a nickname you wish to register and want to check it's
status type:
Don't forget to replace {nick} with the nickname you are searching for.
If the nick or channel already is registered, check back every couple
of days using the ChanServ
info or NickServ info
commands. Unused nicks and channels expire after 20 days.
2.6 - What's a SOP? What's an AOP? SOP stands for
Super-OPerator. A sop is not
equivalent to the channel
founder but does have more priviledges than an aop. A sop can add aops to the list as well as akicks.
AOP's are Auto-OP's and have
basic channel operator status. They cannot add ops to the channel list and
cannot add akicks either.
NOTE: Please be careful who you choose for operator status. Do not give
someone you don't trust sop
2.7 - What happened to my nickname, channel, or memo? Nicknames that are not used will expire after 20 days.
Channels that are not used will expire after 20 days.
Read memos expire in four days. Unread memos expire in ten days.
2.8 - How do I use MemoServ? For details on using MemoServ, you may access DALnet's www help at http://www.dal.net/services/memoserv/index.html.
For Online IRC Help in using MemoServ send a message with the word help
like this:

Punishment of the death penalty is sought against a defendant accused of killing an O'Charley's assistant manager during a robbery Feb. 3 at the Memorial Boulevard restaurant.
Antonio D. Alexander, 46, of Byler Court in Smyrna faces trial on charges of first-degree murder and felony murder of assistant manager Nadir Bahmanziari, a husband and father of two children.
Murfreesboro Detective John Singleton accused Alexander of fatally shooting Bahmanziari during a robbery. Felony murder is a killing in commission of another crime.
District Attorney William Whitesell filed documents last week giving Alexander and his attorney, Barry Tidwell, notice he plans to seek the death penalty if Alexander is convicted of first-degree murder.
If death is not imposed, Whitesell seeks a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Alexander was also indicted for especially aggravated robbery of Bahmanziari and attempted aggravated kidnapping and attempted aggravated robbery of employee Shawn Mahoney. Alexander, who was previously convicted of two robberies, was also indicted for possession of a weapon by a felon.
In his motion, Whitesell listed the following reasons for seeking the death penalty:
• The defendant was previously convicted of one or more felonies involving the use of violence.
• The defendant created a risk of death to two or more people during the act of murder.
• The murder was committed during a robbery.
Whitesell last sought the death penalty for the two defendants convicted of killing three employees at Captain D's restaurant in 2000 in Smyrna. Jurors sentenced La Tonya Tayor to life in prison without the possibility of parole while co-defendant Percy Palmer entered a plea with a sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole.
Alexander's criminal record showed he was released from the Tennessee Department of Correction May 12, 2005 after serving time on two prior robbery convictions.
Sheriff's Detective Virgil Gammon, who is now chief deputy, charged Alexander with aggravated robbery in 1983 when Alexander was 21 years old.
Alexander and two co-defendants robbed Linda Charles at gunpoint Jan. 27, 1983 at her Walnut Grove Road home near Midland. Gammon recovered a pistol, holster and bullets from Alexander.
He pleaded guilty to simple robbery. As part of his plea, Alexander was sentenced to 10 years in prison but released after serving at least 30 percent of his sentence.
Murfreesboro Police Detective Anita Flagg, who is now a captain, charged Alexander with the aggravated robbery June 24, 1988 of the former Rax restaurant on Memorial Boulevard.
Alexander used a blue steel revolver to rob an employee who identified him from a photo lineup, Flagg reported at the time. She charged him with aggravated robbery.
Because he violated parole with the Rax robbery, Alexander returned to the state penitentiary to serve time on the Charles robbery. He pleaded guilty to simple robbery of Rax in 1991. He was sentenced to five years in prison with the sentence to begin after he completed the first 10-year sentence.
At age 19, Alexander served time in the Rutherford County Workhouse after being convicted of assault and carrying a weapon.
He remains in custody at Rutherford County Adult Detention Center. His next hearing is set Dec. 12.

Special Workshop: Tuesday, September 16th 2:30 pm to 5:45 pm COMBINATIONS OF POWER (RAHU AND KETU) In Vedic astrology the lunar nodes known as Rahu and Ketu have special powers in a chart. They are referred to as our karmic destiny. They will indicate our greatest gifts and our darkest issues. In prediction they are where the eclipses fall and indicate the areas of our life that involve the most transformation for that year. When the lunar nodes are combined with another planet they will take on the quality of that planet. They are like mirrors magnifying the energy of that planet. In this class we will see the power combinations of the nodes conjunct the planets in natal charts. Each combination will produce amazing but very different results. Using many chart examples of famous individuals we see the effects of the many combinations of an individual planet with Rahu or Ketu. You will view these combinations of power as a focal point in your readings.

One of the most useful features of Hindu astrology are the divisional (harmonic, or varga) charts. These allow the astrologer to focus more specifically on various areas like relatioships, career, children, real estate, and so forth. The most important divisional chart is the Navamsa, or ninth harmonic chart.

La Roche-Posay Anthelios 60 Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid Reviews
Normally I had been using Clarins UV Plus Day Screen SPF 40 prior to my latest appointment with my dermatologist. I like that it was a thinner fluid sunscreen because it went on my face easier. However, it was a hit or miss whether it would cause breakouts or not depending on how frequently I've been using this. SO, the nurse assistant actually hooked me up with a few sample tubes of this sunscree...read moren and WOW!! I'm impressed. Apparently it has a lot of things that people find questionable putting on their skin, but I'm surprised I haven't had a breakout using this, even when I have EXTREMELY sensitive skin, plus rosacea and eczema. This also lightly hydrates too. Since I have very dry skin, most moisturizers tend to be too light for me and thicker creams cause me to break out, so this is a good small added hydration on top of my moisturizer. I like that this absorbs just as well as the Clarins, and you're going to have to shake it verrrry well prior to pouring it out. This stuff is much cheaper than Clarins (Anthelios costs about $30 whereas Clarins costs $38 for the same fluid volume). However, it's a little harder to get as opposed to Clarins; you either have to order it online or buy it at the Pharmacy counter at Walgreens or CVS (you don't need a prescription but your dermatologist can prescribe it to you). Like the Clarins, it's going to leave a slight white veil over your face, but at least this leaves a matte finish. It's suitable to wear under make up, but like any sunscreens, you're going to need oil blotting sheets or a little powder after a few hours. My skin feels very comfortable outside in the sun, I don't feel any burning at all and this is under the strong Arizona sun that will only get stronger as the summer approaches. Yes, it's a small bottle (1.7 oz) for $30 (your doctor may give you coupons) OR you can find it for a few dollars cheaper online (don't know about the freshness or the reliability of the seller).

Over the years, I struggled to find a sunscreen that didn't feel thick and greasy. This one is the answer! It is light, smooth and soaks into the skin.

One Of Best Investments You'll Make!
Renewed faith in this product. The first time I ever used this was this past summer and around that time, I was trying out a new moisturizer -- biggest mistake ever! After many months and weeks of swapping things in and out of my skin care routine just to see what's messing my skin up, I've worked out the moisturizer was breaking me out! I thought it was this sunscreen that was breaking me out, bu...read moret it was the moisturizer. I was trying out the Aveeno Positively Radiant moisturizer. It's terrible. I had rounds of break outs, mostly cystic pimples! Once they start to subside and calm down, another round would come. It was a never ending cycle. I am still dealing with the marks from all this breaking out. Anyways, I used this SPF recently when I went on a trip and it didn't break me out at all. It comes in a small plastic bottle container with a screw top. You have to shake it really well to mix the content up before applying to your face. It absorbs super fast into the skin and it was rather light. It does feel a tad bit greasy initially when I was applying it with my fingers, but once it absorbs into the skin, it's really not a problem at all. And it's not sticky! I think it's a bit on the expensive side and the price is comparable to the department store brands, but I think this is worth the investment. A little bit goes a long way and that little bottle (1.7 oz) has lasted me through the summer and then some. I actually like the small bottle packaging because it's small and the bottle is thin, not big and bulky. I can throw into my makeup bag or handbag and carry it with me. And this will protect from UVA and UVB rays! — 4 years, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 18 of 18 people said helpful

The Bottom Line: Step therapy
Updated: Monday, July 28 2014, 10:12 PM EDT
ALBANY -- Imagine going to your doctor for treatment, having him or her prescribe what they say is the most effective medication, but then being told you can't have it.
Critics say insurance providers are forcing patients to fail first, by making them take generally less expensive medications.
Scott Daly of Rotterdam says that happened to him, after contracting HIV in 1986.
"I had gotten HIV from a fiance who had a blood transfusion, and she passed away in 1989," Daly tells CBS 6's Dori Marlin.
On top of his HIV treatment, he still takes many other medications for side effects - including high cholesterol.
He says it took him and his doctor 7 years to figure out which script was the most effective, finally settling on Crestor.
His cholesterol numbers were looking really good, he says, until one day there was a surprise when he picked it up at the pharmacy - a change in the medication.
It was a generic script - not changed by his doctor, but by his insurance provider.
And it was part of the practice that's grown to be known as "step therapy."
"Step therapy is exactly as it might sound," says Dr. Charles Argoff, who specializes in pain management at Albany Medical Center. "It's being required by, let's say, an insurance company who pays for care for that person, to go through steps that might be failures."
So for example, if you're dealing with migraines, your doctor might tell you the best course of treatment is to take Relpax. It's a brand name, and likely more expensive. But your insurance company might say, no, you have to take a generic version instead. And if that doesn't work, another generic. And possibly another. Essentially, critics say, the company makes you fail first - before finally allowing you to take what your doctor recommended.
In his line of care, Dr. Argoff says he sees it all the time.
"Nerve pain due to diabetes, nerve pain due to chemotherapy, chronic lower back pain," he says, just to name a few.
Other common medical issues affected by step therapy include lyme disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, even mental health.
They're not better therapies being mandated, says Dr. Argoff, they're just generally less expensive. But because they're also less effective, the costs can add up over time.
"For a switch in medication, you have to pay a $10 or $20 co-pay depending on what your plan is," Daly explains.
For him, between changing medications and dosages, it added up to an extra $60 in a year.
Daly says he and his doctor finally convinced his insurance company to allow him to change back to Crestor.
But for both Daly and Dr. Argoff, they say the physical cost of step therapy is a much steeper one.
"Like a carrot on a stick, it's being held up saying 'You can't have this' until you fail these other things," Dr. Argoff argues. "We have to be able to have a dialogue in such a way that we stop this nonsense."
To try to curb step therapy at least partially, state lawmakers in New York introduced legislation this past session that would give doctors a clear process to appeal the protocols, and limit the amount of time that a patient could be forced to try another medication.
That bill got stuck in committee, however. Sources now tell Dori, it will be re-introduced again next year.

Yiddish vignette by Estelle D. Abraham
This term evolved from the Arabic al zahr, which means "the dice". In Western Europe the term came to be associated with a number of games using dice, which were learned during the Crusades. The term eventually took on the connotation of danger because, from very early on, games using dice were associated with the risky business of gambling and con artists using corrupted dice.
I grew up in a literary family. My aunts and uncle were all writers and published many books and scholarly articles. I myself am a writer - with four published books to my credit (and maybe one to my shame). I have taught classes and conducted discussions for more than a decade centering on Jewish literature. This is not bragging but simply presenting my bona fides for asserting that A Day of Small Beginnings is one of the most compelling, literary and yet accessible novels I have read - Jewish or secular.

When her house was foreclosed, she had to leave the piano behind. The new owner, Christina Conklin, tried to get it tuned for her kids to play, but it was beyond repair. So she called Mauro Di Nucci. He calls himself Mauro Ffortissimo. He's an artist, sculptor and musician, and he likes to make things out of pianos.

FSU and UF match wits on science shortfall
Florida needs math and science teachers.
By RON MATUS, Times Staff Writer
Published November 15, 2007
Florida State University and the University of Florida are teaming up on a $10-million plan to better recruit and prepare math and science teachers for Florida's public schools -areas where there have been critical shortages for years.
The effort, announced in Tallahassee on Wednesday, is modeled on a program at the University of Texas at Austin that doubled the number of UT-Austin graduates with certification to teach math and science.
Florida could use the boost.
For more than two decades, state education officials have put math and science teachers on their annual critical teacher shortage list. Last fall, 10 percent of new science teachers and 9 percent of new math teachers were deemed out of field because they weren't fully certified in the subject areas they were hired to teach, according to a report from the state Department of Education.
The new program will help UF "head off a scientific 'brain drain' by putting bright scientific minds into teaching positions in public school classrooms," UF provost Janie Fouke said in a written statement.
The initiative will be funded by grants from the National Math and Science Initiative and the Helios Education Foundation, with matching money from the Florida Legislature. The math and science initiative picked UF, FSU and 10 other institutions of higher education from 52 who applied to replicate UTeach, the UT-Austin program.
The next generation of scientists is critical for the U.S. to "flourish in the 21st century," FSU president T.K. Wetherell said in a news release. "We are honored to have been selected to play such an important role in helping to develop those scientists."
Founded in 1997, UTeach has enticed math and science majors into teaching by streamlining education courses, offering privately funded internships and making an in-the-classroom course the first thing they take. It also made an effort to reach out to those majors and simply ask if they would consider teaching.
"The myth was, math and science teachers wouldn't be interested in teaching or they would have gone into teaching," said Tracy LaQuey Parker, director of the UTeach Institute, which is heading up the replication effort. But when the university asked, "A lot said, 'Yeah, we'd be interested in trying it.'"
UTeach doubled the number of math and science teachers produced by UT-Austin to more than 70 a year. Four years after UTeach graduates begin teaching, more than 80 percent are still on the job, Parker said.
Many observers see the shortage of high-quality math and science teachers as a crisis. And some consider it among the reasons American students fare poorly on many measures of math and science competence.
Coincidentally, a national report issued Wednesday by the American Institutes for Research found that students in even the highest-performing states are behind their peers in top-scoring counties. Compared to 46 countries, Florida students ranked No. 13 in math and No. 20 in science.
