LEXINGTON, Ky. - The Miami University women's basketball team battled hard against No. 9/8 Kentucky in Lexington on Wednesday afternoon, but hot-shooting from the Wildcats to begin the second half turned a 12-point halftime lead into a 92-53 win. Miami is now 3-3 on the season, while Kentucky improves to 5-1.
Courtney Osborn had a fantastic game for the RedHawks, finishing with 25 points. She was 9-for-23 from the field and also had three steals and three rebounds in 38 minutes of action. Miami battled an extremely athletic Wildcat team nearly evenly in the rebound battle, as it was only outboarded by one, 36-35. The difference came from behind the arc, where Kentucky drained 11 three-pointers.
"I was proud of the way we kept battling for 40 minutes," said head coach Maria Fantanarosa. "They are a legit top-10 team and their depth really showed in the second half. We never stopped fighting."
After Kentucky hit a layup to begin the contest, Osborn found Kirsten Olowinski at the top of the key for the three-pointer and the early 3-2 lead. The Wildcats would quickly regain the lead, but Miami fought right back as a layup from Osborn and a jumper by Hannah Robertson gave the 'Hawks a 7-6 advantage with 14:09 left in the half.
Osborn continued to keep the Red and White in the contest as a pair of jumpers put Miami in front, 13-12. Kentucky would respond with an 18-5 run to take a 30-18 lead with 5:01 to go. A jumper by Kristin Judson stopped the bleeding, but the Wildcats would eventually extend the lead to 36-20 at the 1:41 mark. Back-to-back three pointers by Osborn and Olowinski, followed by a pair of free throws by Robertson made it a nine-point game at 37-28 before a three-pointer by UK sent the Wildcats into the break up, 40-28.
Osborn led the RedHawks with 11 points in the first half. Miami outrebounded Kentucky, 22-19, during the period.
Osborn continued her strong play early in the second half with a pair of buckets, but the Wildcats got hot from behind the arc, nailing three 3-pointers as part of a 12-2 run that pushed the advantage to 23 at 55-32 with 16:24 remaining in the game. Osborn hit a three-pointer to cut it to 20 at 55-35, but Kentucky would go on a 25-12 run over the next 10 minutes to put the game away.
The RedHawks finished the game shooting 32.7 percent (17-for-52). The Wildcats shot 50 percent (33-for-66) for the contest. Olowinski just missed a double-double with eight points and nine rebounds. Robertson had seven points and seven rebounds.
Miami returns to action on Saturday when it welcomes Massachusetts to Millett Hall. Game time is scheduled for 2 p.m. Tim Bray has the call and it will be broadcast live on Miami All-Access for those who have a subscription.

How is the Healthy Eating Plate different from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's MyPlate?
Two words: Diet quality. The Healthy Eating Plate points consumers to the healthiest choices in the major food groups. MyPlate, in contrast, fails to give people some of the basic nutrition advice they need to choose a healthy diet.
A hamburger or hot dog on a white bread bun with French fries and a milk shake could be part of a MyPlate meal—even though high red and processed meat intakes increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and colon cancer, and high intakes of refined grains and potatoes make it hard to control weight. (1–4) The Healthy Eating Plate helps consumers make the healthiest choices—whole grains, a colorful variety of vegetables, and a healthy selection of proteins from fish, poultry, nuts, or beans.
The Healthy Eating Plate was created by experts at Harvard School of Public Health and Harvard Medical School. It is based exclusively on the best available science and was not subjected to political and commercial pressures from food industry lobbyists.
MyPlate encourages consumers to make dairy products a regular part of their meals. Yet research has shown little benefit, and considerable potential for harm, of such high dairy intakes. Moderate consumption of milk or other dairy products—one to two servings a day—is fine, and likely has some benefits for children. But it's not essential for adults, for a host of reasons. That's why the Healthy Eating Plate recommends limiting milk and dairy products to one to two servings per day, and drinking water with meals instead. (Read more details about the research on calcium, milk, and health on The Nutrition Source.)
These diet quality differences matter: Following an eating pattern similar to the Healthy Eating Plate lowers the risk of developing heart disease or dying from heart disease or other chronic diseases. (5–7) You won't get the same disease prevention benefits from eating a hamburger, fries, and a milk shake.
See a table that compares Harvard's Healthy Eating Plate to USDA's MyPlate.
What is the central message of the Healthy Eating Plate?
The Healthy Eating Plate shows consumers a generally healthy way to assemble a meal:
- get plenty of produce
- choose whole grains
- choose healthy sources of protein
- use healthy oils
- drink water or other beverages that don't contain sugar.
It also suggests limiting consumption of refined grains, potatoes, sweets, sugary beverages, red meat, and processed meats, and go easy on milk and juice.
How do the sections of the Healthy Eating Plate break down to percentages of calories or numbers of servings per day from each food group?
The Healthy Eating Plate does not define a certain number of calories or servings per day each day from each food group, since individuals' calorie and nutrient needs vary based on age, gender, body size, and level of activity. Food preferences also shape a person's Healthy Eating Plate.
Are the relative sizes of the Healthy Eating Plate sections based on calories or volume?
The relative sizes of the sections suggest approximate relative proportions of each of the food groups to include on a healthy plate. They are not based on specific calorie amounts, and they are not meant to prescribe a certain number of calories or servings per day, since these numbers vary from person to person (see previous question). The aim of the Healthy Eating Plate is to illustrate one way to put together a healthy meal that fits within the guidelines of the Healthy Eating Pyramid. Read more about the Healthy Eating Pyramid.
Why is the fruit section smaller than the other sections of the Healthy Eating Plate? Is fruit worse for you than healthy protein or whole grains?
The fruit section is smaller than the vegetables section because it is possible to overdo it on some fruits, such as bananas, that are high in starch or sugar. Both fruits and vegetables are nutritionally valuable, and it's no secret that most Americans don't eat enough. The latest state-by-state survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds that 68 percent of adults eat fruit fewer than two times a day, and 74 percent of adults eat vegetables fewer than three times a day. (8) So following the Healthy Eating Plate's guidelines at every meal would actually represent an increase in fruit and vegetable intake for most Americans.
Between vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, carbohydrates account for about three-quarters of the Healthy Eating Plate. Isn't this a lot?
With all the hype around low-carb diets, "net carbs," and the like, there's an abundance of confusion about carbohydrates. Let's cut through some of that confusion:
- The main message of the Healthy Eating Plate is around diet quality.
- The amount of carbohydrate in the diet, high or low, is not what matters most for health. What really matters is the type of carbohydrate in the diet, since some sources of carbohydrate are healthier than others. The Healthy Eating Plate illustrates the importance of healthy carbohydrates from vegetables (other than potatoes), fruits, whole grains, and (in the healthy protein section) beans. Carbohydrates from these foods, in general, have a gentler effect on blood sugar than carbohydrates from refined grains, potatoes, and sugary drinks. They are also naturally rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals (chemicals that are only found in plants). That's why we include them in abundance on the Healthy Eating Plate.
- Vegetables make up the biggest portion of the Healthy Eating Plate, and the carbohydrate content of many vegetables is fairly low; this is especially true on the Healthy Eating Plate, since potatoes or French fries (which are very high in carbohydrate) do not count as vegetables.
- The Healthy Eating Plate also advises consumers to avoid sugary beverages, a major source of carbohydrate in the American diet.
- The Healthy Eating Plate has a glass bottle of oil next to it, designed to encourage consumers to use healthy oils in cooking, on salad, and at the table. It does not set a maximum on the percentage of calories people should get each day from healthy sources of fat. So really, the Healthy Eating Plate conveys just the opposite of the high-carb, low-fat/limited-fat message that the USDA gave consumers for decades.
In sum, the Healthy Eating Plate steers people toward consuming less carbohydrates than one might find in a typical American diet, and it helps them make the healthiest carbohydrate choices. Read more about healthy carbohydrates on The Nutrition Source.
You say to drink tea and coffee, but limit fruit juice. Does this mean caffeine is not a problem for children, but juice is?
The plate shows a glass of water; the explanatory text says to drink water, tea, or coffee, which indicates that tea and coffee (with little or no sugar) are alternatives to water. Parents can be the judge of whether and when to allow their children to drink caffeinated tea or coffee. Many parents may not realize this, but the colas and energy drinks that many children and adolescents already consume in large quantities do contain caffeine, and are also loaded with sugar. Energy drinks can be especially high in caffeine (some bottles may have as much caffeine as 14 cans of a caffeine-containing soda). (9) The American Academy of Pediatrics, in a recent clinical report on energy drinks and sports drinks, states that "caffeine and other stimulant substances contained in energy drinks have no place in the diet of children and adolescents." (9) It also notes that "dietary intake [of caffeine] should be discouraged for all children," and that soft drinks are the largest source of caffeine in children's diets. (9)
Ounce per ounce, juice contains as much sugar and as many calories as a sugary soda, and like sugary sodas, juice can be a cause of tooth decay. That's why we recommend limiting juice. The Healthy Eating Plate recommendations on juice are consistent with those of the American Academy of Pediatrics, which recommends that children consume no more than 4 to 8 ounces of juice per day. Read more about healthy drinks on The Nutrition Source.
What about alcohol? Isn't alcohol supposed to be good for you in small amounts?
As illustrated on the Healthy Eating Pyramid, alcohol in moderation is beneficial, but it's not for everyone. That's why it is not included on the Healthy Eating Plate. You can read more about alcohol at The Nutrition Source.
Will the Healthy Eating Pyramid be going away?
No, the Healthy Eating Pyramid is not going away. Generations of Americans are accustomed to the food pyramid concept so we feel it is important to show how the Healthy Eating Plate connects to the Healthy Eating Pyramid. In fact, the Healthy Eating Pyramid and the Healthy Eating Plate complement each other. Both emphasize foods that promote good health. And both encourage people to limit or avoid foods and drinks that are harmful, or that provide lots of calories but have little nutritional value.
Consumers can think of the Healthy Eating Pyramid as a grocery list: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, healthy oils, and healthy proteins like nuts, beans, fish, and chicken should make it into the shopping cart every week, along with a little yogurt or milk if desired. Skip the soda and snack food aisle, the deli counter, and the steaks and chops at the butcher counter. The Healthy Eating Pyramid also addresses other aspects of a healthy lifestyle—exercise, weight control, vitamin D and multivitamin supplements, and moderation in alcohol for people who drink—so it's a useful tool for health professionals and health educators.
Think of the Healthy Eating Plate as a guide to planning a healthy, balanced meal and serving it on a dinner plate—or packing it in a lunch box. Put a copy on the refrigerator at home or at work, to give yourself a visual guide to portioning out a healthy plate, and to remind you to pump up the produce.
Are there any other reasons why consumers should use the Healthy Eating Plate?
The USDA reports that it conducted formative research with consumers during the development of MyPlate, and "throughout the formative research process, two seemingly opposing needs emerged. These were simplifying nutrition messaging and providing more information." (10) The formative research report highlights deficiencies in MyPlate, among them, that consumers thought the plate icon "did not convey what choices are best within each food group."
Nutrition experts at the Harvard School of Public Health worked with editors at Harvard Health Publications to create the Healthy Eating Plate to address these deficiencies. It provides important health information in a format that is both simple and iconic while also providing enough detail and direction to help people make the best eating choices.

In the US, variable annuities are tax-deferred savings plans. There is no tax on investment gains but tax is payable on the income payments. They have two stages: the accumulation period and the payout period when investors can take income by way of an immediate annuity, (for life or for a specific period), as a single lump-sum amount or through systematic withdrawals.
At retirement most investors choose between taking a lump sum payment (which is heavily taxed), or taking systematic withdrawals which is similar to our drawdown.
Lifetime annuities (like those in the UK) are available but have not been
Many US investors and advisers are now concerned about the risk of systematic withdrawals, particular
with the recent volatility in the global stock markets and are therefore looking
for more income and capital security. Variable Annuities with their combination
of income and capital guarantees have therefore become popular.
In the US it is common for Variable Annuities to include a "Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit" option. The guaranteed lifetime income is payable regardless of investment returns and most contracts lock in investments gains annually. Therefore investors can benefit from a guaranteed income for life without actually buying an annuity.
In addition, if the fund increases in value, the level of income will increase, but if the fund value falls the income will be remain at the level at the last lock in. On death, the funds can be paid as a lump sum to beneficiaries.
The guarantee is provided by the insurance company through a process known as dynamic hedging and the underlying derivatives required to back these guarantees are rocket-science material. The cost of providing these guarantees is normally
paid by way of an additional fund management charge.
The Variable Annuity concept first arrived in the UK in 2007 when the Hartford
launched their VA product. In the UK we find the term Variable Annuity confusing
because an annuity is associated with a guaranteed income for life whereas the VA
is actually an option within a pension plan. Several different names have
been used including, "Unit Linked Guarantees" and "Guaranteed Drawdown".
We prefer to use the term "Guaranteed Drawdown and there are currently three
products in the UK:
Investors in the UK are seeing the income from conventional annuities falling as
factors such as increased life expectancy, low yields and underwritten annuities
force rates downwards. At the same time many so called "Middle Britain"
looking for ways to increase their retirement income whilst still have having
Many are saying that they do not like annuities because if they die
early they will lose the capital, but they are also concerned about the risks
associated with drawdown.
In short, many investors want the best of both worlds; secure income as well as flexibility and investment control. That is exactly what guaranteed drawdown aims to provide.
There is a price to pay to for the lifetime income guarantee and this is represented by an increased fund management charge. Charges differ from company to company but typically range from 0.75% per annum to 1.5% per annum. The costs are lower for other guarantees such as capital only.
Most of the criticism is leveled at the charges. The extra annual management charges eats away at investment returns and in a bull market a naked fund will perform better than a protected fund. But in a falling market the guarantees come into play and the extra cost of the guarantee would have been a price worth paying.
Despite the obvious advantages, some commentators say that while investors may be getting peace of mind they may also be buying something they don't really need at an extra cost. But this is the case with all types of insurance. Supporters of these new products point out that we are happy to pay the cost of house insurance against the small risk that out house burns down, so investors should seriously consider paying an insurance premium against the very real risk that the value of a drawdown funs will fall.
Guaranteed drawdown gives investors the best of both worlds; guaranteed income and flexibility, including the option to change the level of income, control of investments and choice of death benefits including a lump sum (less a 55% tax charge). But this comes with a cost and so investors and their advisers will have to carefully weigh up the advantages and disadvantages.

A good 8 hours for me. One thing I hear all the time is the projection stays within 3 feet of you. I have to disagree with this. This is easily my most projected scent in my small collection. And I own Joop! Homme and 1 Million if that tells you anything. I really think you just have fatigue. Give it a few more applications and avoid spraying near your face (this includes your neck) and you won't get that fatigue.
When I say avoid the neck, I'm just saying don't spray it to where the spray could accidentally enter your nose and ruin your olfactory senses.
Sorry, but there are some CRAZY claims about it's longevity here, IMO.
On me (or my clothes) 2 hours maximum. No one I know - either my family or friends - can smell it after that time.
You don't want to spray this on your clothing... unless you want to smell like an anise bomb.
It lasts for 14 to 18 hours on me, possibly even more.
I have been complimented on it 6 hours after application so it must project well.
Are they going to make this again? Where is everybody getting theirs from?
eBay but they are slightly overpriced. The hype was too intriguing so I got one for $110.00. I don't regret the purchase though.
IDK projects good for several hours, and lasts easily a work day....In other words it gets the job done
My sales thread
I only have a sample of this, and it has a strong opening, so I also recommend not spraying close to ther nose. I guess I need to re-study it again because its longevity on my skin is average -- about 5 hours. The regular L'Instant lasts all day on me.
12+ hours. Location: humid tropics.
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
Extraordinary projection/moderate sillage. Overall an excellent fragrance. A must have. Learn to appreciate this masterpiece.
Way above average, then again, I hardly ever go easy on the trigger with scents, even with comparatively strong ones like this one.
all day. it is thick as said previously by someone so i only do 1-2 sprays
It is decent IMO and not worth the endless praise it is given. I actually find that the edt projects way better even though the chocolate milk drydown of the edp is amazing.
My current top ten:
1. Spice and Wood
2. Tonka Imperiale
3. Dior Homme
4. Pure Malt
5. Oud Wood
6. Ambre Nuit
7. L'air Du Desert Marocain

I get 8+ with LIDGE easy
How many sprays do you guys go with this one?
I used to think this doesn't last on me, and the first time I used Extreme using my spray sample from Surrender to Chance, I got turned off. I usually do 3-5 sprays with my frags, but after understanding this deeper, I realized I only need 1.5 sprays... two, if I want it to project even more.
I find L'Instant Extreme potent with outstanding longevity, and truly excellent projection. The scent is really nice, and I think it is worth owning a bottle. Like I previously posted, do not spray your neck as it is so strong. The chest area, IMO is perfect, even under the shirt layered with a sweater.
I have a hard time smelling LIDGE on my skin after 3-4 hours. Anyone else think LIDGE smells similar to root beer?
Maybe slightly as far as the root beer is concerned. I get a classier version of the original obsession for men. As for longevity on my skin, I get 12 hours on most days@ 2 sprays max for me. Love this scent. So glad I picked up a full bottle of this after having a sample of this. This is one of my most complimented scents. I even pull this one off in the summer with only one spray. Not too heavy at all being in the mid west here. This one will always be in my collection and I am trying to hunt down another bottle of this, as it is getting very difficult to find. Can't even begin to imagine what a reformulated version of this one would be like, IF it ever comes down to that
Good projection and 12+ hours longevity. Sprayed on the chest it manages to scent my shirt and sweater even though I wear an undershirt and let it dry before putting my clothes on. Actually, I wouldn't mind it being a little less potent
Does anyone know if the 3Y01 (Nov. 2013) version of LIDGE is worth owning or has it been reformulated too much?

I know that a bull market is a upward trend and a bear market a downward trend, but how those animals ended in the financial terminology?
From Wikipedia:
See the Wikipedia article for even more theories.
Perhaps because a bull is considered an aggressive animal, one that charges against its enemies, it has been connected to initiative and activity that marks an upward trend. On the other hand, bears spend a long time hybernating in winter, therefore being inactive, a trait that could have connected them to a downward trend in markets.
Some suggestions as to possible etymologies are made here citing various characteristics of bulls and bears; I don't believe a word of it myself, and I'd think a far better answer is to be found here; for what it's worth, I'd bet on the estimable Mr Quinion.
To summarise (for bear):-
One argument that has been put forward for Bull vs Bear is that bearskin traders would sell bearskins they did not own, and hope to make a profit by later purchasing skins from trappers at a lower price. This would be an early form of short selling where the delivery of the skins to the ultimate end use would occur later. Because a bearskin trader made money in a falling market, a falling market became known as a "bear market".
If this explanation is correct then the term "bull" market comes from the idea that people bull and bear were mortal enemies and if a bear market meant a falling market, then a bull market must mean the opposite.
After doing research on line and also hearing it from a guide at the CA State Capitol, the terms Bull and Bear markets were apparently coined by the New York Times writer Horace Greely after watching an actual Bull and Bear fight in Toulumne Cty. CA in the 1850ies and refers to fighting styles of same. Back then it was supposedly a common form of entertainment (until the numbers of Grisly bears dwindled). "Bear market" is when stocks are down like when Bears tried to pull the faces of the Bulls down to avoid the horns." "Bull Market" refers to an upswing in the warket much like a Bull tries to fling the Bear after goring it. Pretty appaling history we have, no?

There is nothing that makes us get in a bigger hurry than when trouble gets on our trail. Trouble has a way of making us freak out. Trouble can even make us give up on life. That's one of the reasons Satan uses trouble to break us down.
I'm trying to get you to see that trouble has a way of finding us but GOD has a way of redeeming us. Trouble has a way of trapping us but GOD has a way of the saving us. You can run but you can't hide from trouble. It has your name. Trouble has your number.
Trouble has your email address. Trouble can find you on Facebook and in the phone book. As long as you live there is no escape from trouble. So running from trouble is a mad dash to nowhere. There is no need to run because trouble is everywhere.
But there is an alternative to running. How about facing your trouble? How about doing like Moses did? He said, "Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord."
The children of the Israel had lost their focus so GOD ordained the prophet Elijah to speak for him to these wayward people. It was bad enough that the people were living in apostasy but the king, Ahab, was weak and wicked. He married a wicked woman by the name of Jezebel who encouraged him to lead the people even further away from the mercy and grace of GOD.
So Elijah steps up and confronts the evil king and queen. He told him that GOD was not pleased and he was going to shut up heaven. Once the drought hit GOD stashed Elijah away at the brook and commissioned some crows as servants.
Then when the brook dried up he sent him to meet a widow woman. This poor woman had been prepped by GOD to receive and sustain the prophet during the drought. Elijah, the widow and her son ate many months off of a handful of meal in a barrel and the little oil in a cruse.
Then Elijah told Ahab to bring all his prophets of Baal to Mt. Carmel where he proved that GOD was all powerful. The prophet issued a command to the people to destroy all the prophets of Baal. After all this was done you would think Elijah's trouble would be over. What else could go wrong?
Ahab went home and reported to evil queen Jezebel what Elijah did. She was so mad that she immediately sent a messenger to Elijah to issue this warning: Let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time. This was a serious threat.
People have been making threats for years. But most people that threaten you really don't have any power to do the stuff they say they'll do. Stop listening to all the threats and start looking to the Lord. I have finally gotten to the point in my life when I just tell them to stop talking and bring it. The biggest issue we have with dealing with our problems is that we're trying to fight a threat instead fighting a battle.
Stop jumping through so many hoops every time somebody says they're about to do something to you. We spend so much energy fighting lip service that when the real fight starts we are too tuckered out to defend ourselves. So if they're talking just let them talk. Most of them are just venting and that's all they're going to do. I think it'll do us all a world of good to just wait for them to come at us with something a little more concrete than a threat.
Jezebel's message really scared Elijah. So he decided to react to the fear and ran for his life. It was actually a mad dash to nowhere. That's why this guy was in a mess. Where was he going to go? King Ahab and Jezebel's rule extended to the entire county of Israel.
Here's what Elijah did. He made a mad dash to Beersheba. This guy left the country. He ran all the way to the kingdom of Judah, the southern kingdom. As a matter of fact he ran to the southern end of the southern kingdom. He was trying to get as far away from Jezebel as he could. But he didn't stop there.
He left his servant in Beersheba. I see here further evidence of a mess. Elijah was so shaken by the message that he didn't know who he could trust. This servant had been traveling with him for a long time but now all of a sudden he has to travel alone.
I hope you know that trouble has a way of cultivating mistrust among people who have been companions for years. Friends are good to have when you have good friends. But when it gets to the point when you don't know if you can trust your friends then that can be a mess.
Elijah thought it best to leave his servant in Beersheba but that wasn't the end of his mad dash. He went another day's journey alone into the wilderness to get even further away from his threat. He came and sat down under a Juniper tree. It was here that he realized that he had reached the end of his road. He asked GOD to take his life.
We all have bouts of depression every now and then. But if you ever get to the point of wishing you were dead then I need to let you know that you need some spiritual guidance. That is not of GOD. Satan is the master trickster and he would love for you to be so broke down that you harm yourself or others. It is not in the will of GOD that you do yourself in. Jesus already died to make things better. If you kill yourself then Satan will win.
A messiah may be defined as an exceptional or hoped for liberator. In this case a messiah came in the form of an angel. Elijah, at the end of his rope, fell asleep under the Juniper tree after asking GOD to take his life.
But a short time later GOD dispatched an angel to wake him up. When the prophet arose he saw a meal cooking on a fire and a jug of water to wash it down with. The angel told him to rise and eat. Elijah ate and went back to sleep but at an appointed time the angel woke him up again so that he could eat.
I don't know what all was going through the prophet's head but when he got some rest and refreshment it seemed to make a big difference in his condition. I just believe that if many of us would just get some rest and take some time to think about our situations; we'll realize that things are not as bad as they seem.
A mad dash is not necessary if you know the Lord. We have talked about a messiah. But let me tell you about the Messiah. His name is Jesus. He's a friend that sticks closer than a brother. He is a wonderful counselor and he can take away your trouble.

Associated Press
COLUMBUS — A resolution to let voters decide whether Ohio should opt out of requirements under the federal health care overhaul has fallen one vote short of passage in the House.
The House voted 59-39 along party lines Wednesday. Republicans hold 59 of the 99 seats but needed 60 votes to pass it. One Democrat was absent.
The measure would have put an issue on the November ballot that would prohibit any law from forcing Ohioans to participate in a health care system.
The GOP-controlled Senate passed the resolution 24-9 last week.
Wednesday's vote comes as tea party groups gather petition signatures for a health care ballot measure to exempt Ohio from parts of the federal law that require individuals and companies to choose certain health insurance carriers.

HAVELOCK — Police are trying to piece together the events that resulted in a shooting death Saturday morning at the Kelly Park Apartment complex on Shipman Road.
Demetri Shavar Berry, 28, died Saturday afternoon at Vidant Medical Center in Greenville. He was shot once in the lower chest/upper abdomen area at around 10:24 a.m. Saturday at the complex, Havelock Police Chief G. Wayne Cyrus said.
When police arrived at the scene, Berry was initially responsive at the foot of the first floor foyer area in front of apartment L-4, but Cyrus said Berry did not live in that apartment.
Cyrus said police are seeking a suspect but described him only as a black male.
He also said Berry's death had not been classified as a homicide, as the investigation is continuing.
"We don't know if it's a murder yet," Cyrus said. "We don't know all the facts. We're still going over the information provided by the witnesses. We're not at a point yet to say that we have a murder."
He said about a dozen witnesses had been interviewed.
"We're still seeking information from witnesses, so hopefully we will be able to determine all those facts once we interview all those parties involved," he said. "All that's going to come out later. We're still in the process of locating witnesses and looking for the alleged shooter. Once we have all those processes complete, we will be presenting all that to the district attorney to make a determination as to how to proceed from here. We haven't finished with it, so we have not yet determined that we have a homicide."
Cyrus said the weapon used in the shooting also isn't known.
"We believe at this point it was a handgun but I do not know the caliber," he said.
Asked if Berry was armed at the time of the shooting, Cyrus refused to say.
"That's a question you'll have answered later. I'm not going to put out information or speculate on anything right now," Cyrus said. "I don't want anyone jumping to any conclusions. I don't want misinformation being put out there.
"We haven't determined all of the facts and circumstances yet, so it's too early to determine how to categorize it. We're exploring all possibilities. The result of the incident was that Mr. Berry was shot one time and passed as a result of the gun shot. We haven't released anything regarding the circumstances nor will we until we can get everything together and present that to the district attorney."
On Monday, police returned to the apartment complex and left with a person of interest in the case. That person was not in handcuffs.
"We had received information that indicated that a person we were interested in locating was at the apartment building so we responded units over there to determine whether that information was factual or not," Cyrus said. "He was a person of interest who we were looking for. I'm not going to identify him as a suspect because we have not yet completed the interviews."
Cyrus said Berry had a fiancé in the area and that his father was in the military and serving overseas. He said arrangements were being made for Berry's father to return the United States.
At the time of his death, Berry was on probation for a Sept. 8, 2011, conviction of possession of a firearm by a felon and felony possession of marijuana, according to the N.C. Department of Correction website.
Anyone with more information on the shooting can contact the Havelock Police Department at 447-3212. Those wishing to leave an anonymous tip can call 467-7115 or go online to www.havelocknc.us.

International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
The impact of global warming on the world's climate to date is relatively small compared with what can be expected in the future, even if the increase in greenhouse gas emissions is stabilized. Furthermore, the results are likely to be highly uneven in their distribution, with low-lying coastal areas (such as small island developing States, the Bangladesh delta and the Netherlands) at risk because of rising sea levels; sub-Saharan Africa at risk due to desertification; a growing number of environmental refugees; and increased pressure on sources of fresh water and on vulnerable ecosystems such as coral reefs, tundra and coastal wetlands.
In this context, ICTs including remote sensing and geographic information systems have expanded the possibilities for risk assessment of multiple hazards and enabled the development of various scenarios and contingency plans. Risk analysis includes: risk maps, hazard maps, and scenario maps. Risk analysis is therefore a key component in developing a disaster risk reduction strategy by establishing the links between exposure to hazards, level of vulnerabilities and the ability to cope.
As part of its commitment to contribute to the fight against climate change, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is a partner of the Nairobi Framework Programme. The ITU is the specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for information and communications technologies (ICTs), comprising 192 governments and over 700 private companies.
As a unique intergovernmental organization with participation from the private sector, ITU is a major facilitator of initiatives to speed-up reductions in ICT-related GHG emissions and promotion of energy efficiency and is well placed to help countries implement the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto Protocol through the use of ICTs. In addition, ITU is engaging the public and private sectors through the development of new global ICT standards on adaptation. ITU Resolution 182 "The role of Telecommunications/Information and Communication Technologies on Climate Change and the Protection of the Environment" (Guadalajara, October 2010) identifies the need to assist developing countries to use ICTs to tackle climate change and committed ITU to work with other stakeholders to develop tools to support this aim.
To move forward the climate change agenda and help countries to adapt to the effects of climate change through the use of ICTs, ITU has organized several events and symposia on 'ICTs and the Environment & Climate Change'. The Sixth Symposium on "ICTs, the Environment and Climate Change " will be held in Accra, Ghana, on 7-8 July 2011 and the ITU Green Standards Week will be held in Rome from 5 to 9 September 2011. ITU's activities on adaptation include:• providing assistance to governments to build appropriate institutions for disaster risk reduction;• developing international standards;• providing assistance to countries in incorporating resilient features in telecommunications infrastructure;• helping countries to develop policy and legal frameworks by providing inputs into policy formulation, and legislative and regulatory drafting for countries;• helping countries with regard to their vulnerability by providing assistance in reducing and eliminating vulnerabilities in telecommunications infrastructure;• assisting Member States in designing and incorporating telecommunications/ICT into national adaptation plans;• implementing early warning systems in countries where there is a high incidence of disasters;• designing national emergency telecommunications plans that include Standard Operating Procedures that are now in use in many countries;• producing guidelines, handbooks, toolkits and other publications that are in use by countries for disaster risk reduction.As a core function of its work with developing countries, ITU assists its Member States in the use of ICTs to adapt to climate change. ICTs can be effective in enabling countries to better adapt to climate change. Adaptation involves taking action to tolerate the effects of climate change on a local or country level.
Within ITU-T Study Group 5 on 'Environment and Climate Change' two new Questions (work areas) have been created with the aim of developing recommendations and guidelines on adaptation to climate change. • "How can ICTs be used to enable countries to adapt to climate change?" • "How can a low cost sustainable telecommunication infrastructure be set up in rural areas of developing countries?".Generally complex emergencies that need external intervention occur in resource-poor countries where data and communication facilities are scarce. Decision-making is often delayed due to lack of information. The effectiveness of humanitarian interventions and the ability to protect livelihoods from the impacts of hazards depends on the timeliness and appropriateness of responses. A prominent example of this area of activities is the use of ICTs to implement early warning systems for natural disasters and the use of communications for disaster relief operations.
ITU has launched a Green ICT Application Challenge to find the best and most innovative Concept Paper for a climate change focused application. The winning concept will be awarded USD 3,000, thanks to challenge sponsor Telefónica. The author of the best and most innovative Concept Paper for a "Sustainable Energy for All" ICT application will be awarded the prize during the Rio+20 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development. More information can be found at: http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/climatechange/greenict/index.html
ICTs as a Key Technology to Help Countries Adapt to the Effects of Climate Change http://www.worldresourcesreport.org/es/responses/icts-key-technology-help-countries-adapt-effects-climate-change
Organizations, institutions and private sector companies at all levels and in a wide range of sectors can become engaged with the NWP by becoming a partner and making Action Pledges. Information about how organizations can become engaged with work on adaptation under the NWP can be found here.

Each piece of the 10 finishes is painstakingly joined in order, so the grain flows around the cabin and each side perfectly mirrors the other. Or choose cutting edge Piano Black or Carbon Fibre finishes for a sleek, modern effect.

Need to Talk?I just accepted JesusI need Prayer
Most Christians are not in danger of ruining their lives-they're in danger of wasting them. Are you unsatisfied with the kind of Christian life you've settled for? In this series, we come to the life-altering understanding that God is ready to accomplish a greatness in your life that is entirely out of human reach-but exactly what God has seen in you all along.
Burn the Plows
Pastor Steven Furtick
We all have areas of our lives where we have settled. Areas where we've decided that "good enough" is good enough. But God hasn't called us as believers in Jesus to merely survive the world, plodding along in our daily routine, waiting for the day we die. No, there's more to our existence than that. In part 1 of our series Greater, Pastor Steven talks about the greater life God calls us to, and the unconventional path we must follow to get there.
Digging Ditches
Pastor Steven Furtick
As Christians, our faith is far more than just rolling the dice with our prayers, hoping and wishing for God to do greater things in our lives. Having faith requires participation too. We see this over and over again throughout the Bible. The people God uses to accomplish greater things not only want God to move in their lives, but are also willing to work through their faith. And in this clip from part two of our series GREATER, Pastor Steven helps us redefine what an active faith in God really looks like.
Upon Further Review
Pastor Steven Furtick
You prayed. You hoped. You gave. You tried. And it failed. Scripture never tells us the Christian life will be the easiest road or the most clean-cut story. But what kind of God plants something in your heart, only to let it die? What's the point in that? And what does that say about God? In part three of our series GREATER, Pastor Steven teaches us about the true character of God when it seems like we've wasted our faith.
