"I look forward to the day when I'll see the Enfu universe printed on handbags, hoodies, and yoga pants; in the form of blind box figures, limited edition pillows and slip-on sneakers; and part of pop-up shops, hand-painted murals and vinyl-wrapped jets. Yet for the moment, the Enfu universe is summed up in this book. It's a small peek into [Enfu's] hard work and a leap into his dreams." -Eric Nakamura, Giant Robot.

Combining his lifelong interest in Japanese tradition and his personal experiences with these vengeful spirits, author Zack Davisson launches an investigation into the origin, popularization, and continued existence of yurei. Juxtaposing historical documents and legends against contemporary yurei-based horror films such as The Ring, Davisson explores the persistence of this paranormal phenomenon in modern day Japan and its continued spread throughout the West. This book promises to be the definitive title on the subject.
For a taste of the book, visit Davisson's website Hyakumonogatari.com. Zack also lent his ghostly expertise to the "Lost Souls of Okinawa" episode of Nat Geo's series "I Wouldn't Go in There."

Henguchi builds on the surrealism of Haruki Murakami and his contemporaries to create a new aesthetic for a young generation of Japanese artists. Everyday objects—tools, flowers, escalators, tangles of thread—are elevated, parodied, and ultimately made new. In language as funny as it is brash and philosophical.
With more than 60 pages of color photography, 70 beautifully designed poems, and Henguchi's essay-poem "Nihongo," this is a title that collectors, designers, and readers who revel in the act of reading will adore. Learn more about the book at its website or order it through our store.
The Yellow River is the world's sixth largest river. Bill Porter recounts his fascinating journey from the mouth to the source (some say he was the first Caucasian to actually reach the source) in the early 1990s. The winding trip over more than 3,000 miles takes the master translator and author into what was once the cradle of Chinese civilization and through the hometowns and graves of key historical figures such as Confucius, Mencius, Lao-tzu and Chuang-tzu.
This collection includes 43 black-and-white photos taken by Porter that provide a visual trail of the memorable journey.

Burger King's Subservient Chicken Is Back
Thursday, May 01, 2014
After a 10-year hiatus, Burger King is bringing its Subservient Chicken ad campaign back.
The fast food chain struck advertisement gold when they introduced the Subservient Chicken character, a man dressed in a chicken costume who was featured in commercials and an interactive website.
People would go onto the website and type in commands for the chicken to perform, like jumping jacks, push-ups and dance moves.
The campaign was to promote Burger King's TenderCrisp sandwich. The fast food restaurant is reintroducing the campaign, along with its new Chicken Big King sandwich.
John Carroll, Here & Now's media analyst, joins Jeremy Hobson to talk about the success Burger King had with its campaign a decade ago and the goal of this new campaign.

Judge Will Lead Inquiry in Schmidt-Bolger Case
A one-judge grand jury will look into whether there was any illegal activity involved in the party-switching plot between state Representative Roy Schmidt and state House Speaker Jase Bolger.
A majority of judges on the Ingham County circuit court determined there is probable cause to go forward with a criminal investigation. Judge Rosemary Aqualina was selected by a blind draw to lead the inquiry.
Schmidt and Bolger plotted the Grand Rapids lawmaker's switch to the Republican Party, and recruited a fake Democrat to appear on the ballot so Schmidt would avoid a reelection fight.
The Kent County prosecutor has already determined no laws were broken, although he called the episode shameful and forwarded the case to the Secretary of State to investigate possible campaign finance violations.
Senate Democratic Leader Gretchen Whitmer and state Democratic Party chair Mark Brewer called for the grand jury because the State Police investigation was halted before all the subpoenas were served.

Narendra Modi today made light of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's remarks that he did not see any Modi wave, saying how can he visualise it if he did not notice inflation, unemployment and corruption during his 10-year rule.
"I want to ask the Prime Minister a question: 'Dus sal mein unko mehengai, berozgari, bhrastachar nazar nehi aya, toh ye lehar kahan se nazar ayega (how can he see a Modi wave when in 10 years he could not see inflation, unemployment and corruption)?" Modi said at an election rally here in Hooghly district.
The BJP's prime ministerial candidate was reacting to Singh's comment at a rally in Dispur in Assam on April 24 in which he had said he did not see any Modi wave and it was the creation of the media.
"You don't see anything on your own, you see through the eyes of mother and son. So how can you see the Modi wave," he said in an oblique reference to Sonia Gandhi and Rahul.

Evita Peron remembered 60 years after her death
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Argentina's iconic first lady Evita Peron was so loved or hated when she was alive that long after her death, passionate arguments about her character drowned out more serious efforts to examine her legacy.
Some historians say that only now, 60 years after Gen. Juan Domingo Peron's firebrand wife succumbed to cancer at the age of 33, are many beginning to consider how much her actions shaped the society they live in today.
Setting aside the social-climber image fostered by the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical and misogynistic biographers of years past, many now credit her activism and passion for things that are central to Argentine culture today, from widespread desires for social justice and equal rights to a shared assumption that society's poorest need and deserve the government's help.
"Evita now is a character accepted nationwide much more than 20 years ago. Many people who don't think like Evita, admire her," historian Felipe Pigna told The Associated Press.
"Even from parts of Argentine society you wouldn't expect - I don't know if they vindicate her, but they respect her," said Pigna. "There has been a transformation in Argentine society."
That transformation has been intensely promoted by the government of Cristina Fernandez, who traces her political activism directly to Evita and misses few opportunities to draw comparisons between their governments. Fernandez unveiled a new 100-peso bill honoring Evita Wednesday night, and said she would mark Thursday's anniversary by inaugurating a new public housing project. "She would have liked that," Fernandez said of Evita.
Argentina broke with its past the day Evita asked to speak after Peron won his first presidential election in 1946 - something presidential wives had never done, Pigna said. She took the microphone and launched a campaign for woman's suffrage, saying "A woman cannot only be a spectator of political movements. She must take action; she must vote."
Critics saw the young former dancer as a power-hungry tramp. Many were so furious at the way the foundation she created took from the rich and gave to the poor that they refused to mention her by name, calling her "that woman".
As first lady, Evita swiftly took control of two pillars of her husband's government: the relationship with unions and handing government aid to poor citizens, many of whom idolized her. While he focused on politics, she dominated the media with talk of improving living conditions for her "shirtless ones."
"Evita gave form to today's Argentina in terms of working-class consciousness, respect for workers no matter their rank, awareness that workers have rights and that they must be respected. Before, workers lacked any rights and there was hardly any social legislation," said Pigna, whose book "Evita, Shreds of her Life" was just published. "This really set Argentina apart from the rest of Latin America."
Eva Duarte Peron was born illegitimate, raised poor and was barely educated. She became an actress at a time when high society scorned the profession. Understanding how a woman with so many strikes against her managed to become such a transcendent historical figure is more relevant than ever now that Fernandez occupies the presidency, said Araceli Bellota, whose book "Eva and Cristina, the Reason of their Lives," also was recently published.

Richfield Springs Central School expects to have a school-based health center in place by September 2014, thanks to the efforts of Bassett Healthcare and state Sen. James Seward.
Seward was at the school Friday morning to announce that the 2013 - 2014 state budget includes $150,000 to establish a Bassett Healthcare Network school-based health center at the school.
"School-based health centers fill a great void in rural areas like those I serve," said Seward, R - Oneonta. He pointed out that parents may not be able to take their children to a medical office, especially single parents who work. Some may lack insurance. Living in a rural area can mean having to travel a greater distance to receive needed health care.
Having a school-based center is "today's equivalent to a house call," he said, adding if a child receives early care for a health problem, more serious health concerns and consequences can often be avoided.
"Bassett Healthcare has developed a successful operating model, the largest rural SBH program in New York state, and expanding services to Richfield Springs Central School will mean healthier children and added peace of mind for parents who choose to utilize the care option," said Seward.
He said the district contacted him several months ago about the need for the center. As a member of the Senate Health Committee, he said, he was able to the advance the appropriation, which was included in the recently adopted state budget.
"The school-based health care model works very well," said Dr. Chris Kjolhede, director of the Bassett Healthcare Network School-Based Health Program. "It brings health care to places where it's harder for kids to get the care they need."
He said Bassett had been talking with administrators at Richfield Springs Central School for several years about bringing a center to the school.
"Research shows school-based health care results in positive outcomes, including lower absenteeism and fewer unnecessary hospitalizations," said Kjolhede. "This means the students are spending more time learning in the classroom. It's also better for students with chronic conditions like asthma and ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) because we're better able to manage those conditions by being where the students are, in the school."
In addition to medical care, he expects to have mental health services at the school and hopes to see preventive oral and dentistry care added as well.
Richfield Springs School Superintendent Robert Barraco thanked the staff, Bassett and Seward, saying he was pleased the senator had recognized the importance of school-based care to the district. "This has been a long time in coming," he said. "We've been at this since 2007."
Seward said the $150,000 in state funding would provide about half of the money needed to establish a school-based health program at Richfield Springs Central School. Once the remainder of the funding is secured, Bassett will apply for state approval of the program and recruit providers.
Page 2 of 2 - Barraco said there are two or three spaces in the school that are being considered to provide space for the school-based health center. As for the additional funding needed for the program, he said, school officials are working with Bassett to leverage the funds. The district also has a trust fund that may supplement the other funds.
Kjolhede said the state Department of Health has a staff ratio for school-based centers based on enrollment. Plans call for having a nurse practitioner or physician assistant in the center each school day with a physician available for consultation and coming in on a regular basis. Mental health care would also be available on a daily basis, he said.
Bassett's school-based health program currently provides primary, dental and mental health care to nearly 7,500 students in 19 schools in four counties: Otsego, Delaware, Chenango and Schoharie. No family pays out-of-pocket for services provided by the school-based centers. If the student has insurance, the center will bill the student's health insurance for the services provided and may help the student enroll in Child Health Plus or Medicaid.

By Ted Sares: In the past, I have written about cuties like Jimmy Young and Jersey Joe Walcott, bombers like Bob Satterfield and Cleveland Williams and closers like Sugar Ray Leonard and Khaosai Galaxy. But what about spoilers, you know, a boxer who derails a potential contender or favored contender and thwarts his chances, at least temporarily, of staying hot or even winning a championship; a guy who has a style that negates the obvious talents of his favored opponent?
Had Kevin Howard beaten a come backing Sugar Ray Leonard, he would have been a spoiler. He had so nicknamed himself. Gene Mad Dog Hatcher spoiled many a streaking boxers record-- something to which Joe Manley, Alfredo Escalera, and Johnny Bumphus can all attest. Mike The Bounty Hunter certainly did some serious spoiling as Jose Maria Flores Burlon, Jimmy Thunder, Pinklon Thomas, Dwight Muhammad Qawi, Oliver McCall, Alexander Zolkin and Buster Mathis Jr. will verify. When Jimmy Young derailed George Foreman, he was a both a cutie and a spoiler..
When Tommy Morrison was upset by Michael Bentt in 1993 thus depriving the Duke of a hugh payday against Lennox Lewis, some called Bentt a spoiler, but one upset does not make a spoiler. No, a spoiler in my view must have a propensity to pull off upsets with a discernable degree of regularity while still remaining at a lower level than those he beats. Of course, when a fighter has a large number of upsets during the course of his career, that is quite another story.
Augustus and Pendleton
Emanuel Augustus (previously Burton) fills the bill as he upset Courtney Burton, Ray Olivera, Alex Trujillo (a prospect with a 23-1 record), Carlos Wilfredo Viliches 37-1-2 (Augustus took the fight on 2 days notice), and Mike Griffith (who gave Paul Spadafora all he could handle). He also beat Terrel Finger, 21-0, whom he KOd in 8, Fred Ladd, 45-1, coming in, Soren Mr. Perfect Sonderrgrad, 38-1, (the fight was ruled a draw though most thought Augustus had won), and David Toledo, 25-1 at the time. Quite an impressive list, indeed.
With wins over Freddy Italo Rojas, 48-1, Tony Lopez, 45-5-1, Darryl Tyson, 45-6,, Jorge Paez, 46-5-4, Tracy Spann, 27-1-1, Livingston Bramble, 26-2-2, Tyrone Price 12-0, and most coming by brutal stoppages, Fearless Freddie Pendleton fit the mold as well as anyone. In March 1986, "Fearless," who was (14-13) at the time, shocked the boxing world by knocking out Roger Mayweather, 23-3, in the 6th round at the Sahara Hotel in Las Vegas.
In 78 bouts, he finished with a 47 (KO 34) - 26 (KO 7) - 5 record and was always an exciting performer who gave the fans more than their moneys worth. His thundering right hand always posed a threat, regardless of how highly regarded his opponent was.
There are many others who were representative. Guys like Bostonian Bob Benoit, 37 -8, and Mike Hercules Weaver, 41-18-1. Ted Sanders, 10-15-4, who beat highly regarded Mickey Goodwin, 17-0 and iced a streaking Alex Ramos, 15-0, among others was a prototype as was my favorite spoiler, Darryl Pinckney.
Darryl Pinckney (fought from 1985-2006)
Before he took a deep slide south starting in 1997, The Nightmare, 21-21-2 at the time, was the quintessential spoiler when he shocked and stopped undeafted Guty Espadas Jr. in 1996. A year earlier, he KOd undefeated Louie Leija.
In 1994 and with a record of 18-18-2, he shocked and stopped 33-1 Junior Jones in 3 rounds at Bally's Park Place Hotel in Atlantic City. Two years earlier, he iced Prudencio Cardona, 40-22-1 at the time.
He lost 21 of his last 24 fights including 12 at the tail end and finished with 24-42-3 record, but he had plenty to brag about with some early, high profile surprise wins--all by clean stoppage and all against heavily favored fighters coming in.
In many instances and like Freddie Pendleton, he was able to level the playing field over more obviously talented opponents. He spoiled expectations. Darryl Pinckney was a spoiler extraordinaire.

Henderson County: 6:30 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 5 at the Henderson Fine Arts Center on the Henderson Community College campus.

The presentation will be followed by an open question-and-answer session, when participants can share additional thoughts or comments.

Patrick – Thank you! We haven't made tortillas in a while, but one of the local Latino markets sells pretty good corn tortillas with no preservatives. They even puff up when we heat them over the flame.

Zdeno Chara drafts Tim Thomas, Phil Kessel, Tyler Seguin
|01.26.12 at 9:28 pm ET
Bruins captain Zdeno Chara held the first overall pick in the fantasy draft to determine teams for the 2012 NHL All-Star game Thursday night and selected Red Wings forward Pavel Datsyuk with the top pick. Chara then drafted teammate Tim Thomas in the second round.
The other Bruin in the player pool, Tyler Seguin, had to wait quite a while for his name to be called. After picking the likes of Carey Price, Phil Kessel and Dennis Wideman, Chara selected Seguin in the 19th round.
Upon being selected, Thomas was asked about his controversial decision to not attend the White House Monday for political reasons.
"I followed my conscience," Thomas said of his decision. "I'm extremely grateful for all the support I've gotten from my teammates, my friends and my fans."
Here are the results of the draft:
1. Pavel Datsyuk Erik Karlsson
2. Tim Thomas Jason Spezza
3. Evgeni Malkin Jonathan Quick
4. Marian Hossa Claude Giroux
5. Kimmo Timonen Kris Letang
6. Corey Perry Steven Stamkos
7. Carey Price Brian Elliot
8. Phil Kessel Shea Weber
9. Ryan Suter Daniel Sedin
10. Jimmy Howard Dan Girardi
11. Brian Campbell Keith Yandle
12. Patrick Kane Milan Michalek
13. Dion Phaneuf Henrik Sedin
14. Jarome Iginla James Neil
16. Dennis Wideman Alex Edler
17. Marian aborik John Tavares
18. Jordan Eberle Scott Hartnell
19. Tyler Seguin Jason Pominville
20. Jamie Benn Logan Couture

MAKING A POINT: A student speaking at the launch of The Hindu NIE programme in Udupi on Saturday.
UDUPI: The Hindu Newspaper In Education (NIE) programme was launched at Indralli English Medium High School here on Saturday.
The programme began with programme coordinator Sumana Aarons explaining the importance of newspapers in assisting students with their studies. Students responded to questions posed by Ms. Aarons with enthusiasm. The students were asked why they thought reading the newspaper is important. The unanimous view that emerged was that it helps them gain knowledge. Students were told how reading the newspaper helps them gain a competitive edge.
The responses of the students to questions posed to them were frank and forthcoming. At the end of the session for the 10th standard, a student of the same class, Pranita Bhat, said: "I found the session enriching and it helped me gain a lot of knowledge."
Students of the 9th standard said that besides knowledge, they read the newspaper to know more about sports. They said they find model question papers, quiz questions and crosswords in newspapers enriching. Students and the coordinator discussed various aspects of a newspaper in general and The Hindu in particular.
Ms. Aarons told the students that the newspaper is the most up-to-date, inexpensive textbook available. Newspapers help students improve their vocabulary and language skills, she said.
Five schools in Udupi have registered for the NIE programme.
The objectives of the NIE programme include assisting schools in strengthening instruction through newspapers and helping students improve their knowledge in a variety of subjects. It is also aimed at promoting reading among schoolchildren. The modules of the programme have been structured with the basic objective of honing the inherent skills in children.

Lexmark recognized by national organizations for workplace flexibility and effectiveness.
The Alfred P. Sloan Awards for Business Excellence in Workplace Flexibility are part of the When Work Works project, an ongoing initiative of Families and Work Institute, the Institute for a Competitive Workforce - an affiliate of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce - and the Twiga Foundation. Through When Work Works, these partner organizations provide research, resources and recognition to employers nationwide and share the results of research on creating effective and flexible workplaces that meet the needs of the 21st century. Lexmark is one of eight Lexington companies to win the award.
Lexmark's Flexible Work/Life Programs enhance operational efficiency, promote business goals and enrich the quality of life for employees. The Lexmark Telecommuting Program allows U.S. employees to work from an alternate workplace. The Lexmark Part-time Program allows U.S. full-time employees to work a reduced schedule, with a minimum schedule of 20 hours per week. Lexmark also offers a paid Volunteer Time Off Program to encourage employees to actively participate in the life of their communities by volunteering their time, talents and resources. Full-time employees qualify for up to 24 hours of volunteer time off per calendar year. Part-time employees qualify for up to 12 hours per calendar year.
The Sloan Awards recognize organizations that are dedicated to making work "work" for both the employer and the employees. Representing employers of all sizes and types, winners of this prestigious award not only offer excellent workplace flexibility practices, but also use flexibility as a strategic business tool to enhance organizational effectiveness while benefiting employees.
"Working to bring balance between the professional and personal lives of our employees is what we strive to achieve," said Jeri Isbell, vice president, Lexmark human resources. "Winning this award lets us know we are doing the right thing to reach our goals."
"Employers must develop new recruitment and retention policies. Unprecedented conditions - a multi-generational workforce, a shrinking labor pool and an increasing demand for skilled workers - dictate that they do so," said Greg Roth, senior manager of Workforce Education Programs for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's Institute for a Competitive Workforce.
Applications for the Alfred P. Sloan Awards were open to all organizations in the greater Lexington area with more than 10 employees that had been in business for at least one year. Applicants were evaluated in a rigorous two-step process, first comparing the employer's application to nationally representative data from Families and Work Institute's National Study of Employers, and then corroborating the employer responses through a survey of employees.
"Sloan Award winners have put into practice their bold ideas about how to make work work in the 21st century, and they have shown how they can support the needs of their employees while also making their organizations more effective and successful," said Ellen Galinsky, president of Families and Work Institute. Lexmark will be featured in the 2009 issue of the Guide to Bold New Ideas for Making Work Work, published by Families and Work Institute.

The ratio of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere is approaching with 400 parts per million. This amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has not been seen since about 2.5 million to 5 million year ago. Scientists are alarmed that CO2 levels are rising in places far from pollution sources. The Los Angeles Times reports:
"The 400-ppm threshold is a sobering milestone, and should serve as a wake-up call for all of us to support clean-energy technology and reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, before it's too late for our children and grandchildren," said Tim Lueker, an oceanographer and carbon cycle researcher who is a longtime member of the Scripps CO2 Group.

He completed residency training in Emergency Medicine at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center in Newark, New Jersey.
Doctor's View on Pneumonia Symptoms
Comment by John P. Cunha, DO, FACOEP
Common pneumonia symptoms
Pneumonia is a lung infection that can cause many different symptoms that are similar to a cold including sneezing, cough, sore throat, and fatigue. High fever (up to 104 F or 40 C), shaking, and chills follow. If you have pneumonia, you may also cough up mucus (sputum) that may be discolored or bloody. Sometimes there is sharp chest pain and shortness of breath, and you also may have a headache and muscle aches.
Walking pneumonia
Mild cases of pneumonia are often referred to as "walking pneumonia," and symptoms include cough with little mucus, mild flu-like symptoms, sore throat, headache, and tiredness. Walking pneumonia is usually an infection with a mycoplasma bacterium or other atypical infectious causes. If you have walking pneumonia you may feel well enough to go to work and carry out daily activities.

Menopause Health Center
HRT May Reduce Diabetes Risk
"These findings are scientifically interesting, but they need confirmation by further studies," says Kanaya. "It is premature to recommend the use of hormone replacement therapy for the prevention of diabetes."
Karen E. Friday, MD, associate professor of medicine at Tulane University, agrees that further studies are needed and says her great hope is that the negative press about HRT in recent months has not halted research on estrogens because there is more that we need to know.
According to Friday, both animal and human studies suggest that estrogen plays a significant role in how the body regulates the sugar glucose, and she says we don't yet understand all of the potential mechanisms and influences of various forms of estrogen on diabetes.
Since diabetes is known to greatly increase a person's risk of heart disease, finding a way to safely reduce that additional risk through the use of HRT could have tremendous potential.
"For example, if you're a postmenopausal woman that hasn't developed heart disease, preventing diabetes -- in theory -- might help you prevent future heart disease," says Friday. "But if you're a diabetic woman who's already faces an increased risk of heart disease, does taking estrogen now make that better or worse? That question remains to be answered."

WSFC Resource Deadlock when took offline EV Cluster Storage Service
Hi, I'm having this issue when took offline EV cluster storage service using Microsoft Failover Clustering manager:
Windows error reporting: WSFC Resource Deadlock when took offline EV Storage Service.
System error event: The Enteprise vault storage service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 4 times.
Failover cluster event: Cluster resource 'xxxx-EnterpriseVault StorageService' in clustered service or application 'xxxx' failed. (xxxx is the cluster name).
Tried to Dtrace Storage Service and task controller but cannot find anything.
Anyone had this issue before?
After it failed, it can be brought up online without any issue.
Thank you.

I would guess this is SQL related as it's referrring to deadlocks. Check SQL and see if there are any.
Really hard to say to be honest. My personal first port of call for this would be to speak to MS about this issue, as though it is an EV service the operation to failover is a MS one. I woudl then let them guide you and if then it does come back to an EV fault somehow they provide you with information on this to pass to EV support.
I dont think the problem is SQL Deadlocks from your description.

The radio disc jockey or DJ is an invaluable part of the radio broadcast team. The DJ is the voice of the radio station and as such, professionalism is required, but a sunny disposition is helpful as well. From their broadcast booth in the studio, the DJ shares music, appropriate commentary and ads with the general public. DJs are responsible for maintaining an accurate and consistent schedule of ads playing on the air; this requires close contact with the Ads Manger and other team members in order to keep up the requirements of the ad buys.Read More...
The job requires both indoor and outdoor work time; DJs are primarily based out of the broadcast booth in the studio working with a technician on the main station equipment. However the position does require numerous on-location broadcasts. These broadcasts are integral to maintaining ad buys, media relations, a loyal fan base. They are mandatory and require working in all weather conditions.
The schedule for a DJ varies by need, however to maintain consistent broadcasting, most DJs do have set times to broadcast from the studio. On-location broadcasts will either be during those set broadcasts times or the DJ would be on location working in tandem with a DJ in the studio at a none scheduled time. The DJ requires basic radio broadcast licenses from the FCA, the government agency that oversees the broadcast of radio signals. Obtaining licenses usually requires taking a generalized test on radio and radio signal knowledge. The DJ must be proficient with computers in order to properly utilize broadcast system.
Radio Disc Jockeys seeking a sizable paycheck can earn the most at Cumulus Media, Inc., where the average salary comes to $40K.
Clear Channel Communications, Inc. offers the lowest compensation; the median salary there averages out to only $31K. The pay range is also narrow, ranging between $17K and $61K.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience seems to be a major factor in determining the incomes of Radio Disc Jockeys. The average inexperienced worker earns $24K, and someone who has worked for five to 10 years can expect a bigger median salary of $30K. Radio Disc Jockeys who work for 10 to 20 years in their occupation tend to earn about $35K. Radio Disc Jockeys who have spent more than 20 years on the job report earning a significantly higher median of $46K.

Ever since my husband and I divorced, our son seems to be on such an emotional roller coaster — angry one minute and sad the next. How can I help him?
- Joanne
Divorce can be tough on kids — and parents. Kids may respond to the loss of a traditional two-parent family with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or anger. These feelings may result in social withdrawal, difficulty in school, aggressiveness, social problems, or other behaviors.
Parents can help kids deal with divorce by talking about these feelings. Be sure to reassure your son that he's loved and that the divorce wasn't his fault. Make sure he doesn't witness anger and hostility between you and your ex-husband.
With time and good support, most kids can make a healthy adjustment to divorce. However, if your child's behavior continues to concern you, consult a mental health professional.

Taiwanese drug inmate 'rescued'
CAVITE, Philippines—A Taiwanese national, detained at the Cavite provincial jail, for a drug offense was snatched by a still unidentified number of men as he was being transported from the jail facility in Trece Martires City to Imus City in Cavite on Wednesday.
Cavite Gov. Juanito Victor "Jonvic" Remulla, in a phone interview, said the snatching took place around 11 a.m. in front of the Cavite provincial hospital in Trece Martires City.
He, however, could not provide details on whether the Taiwanese inmate, whose name was not immediately available, was abducted or was taken as there are reports that the foreigner was "rescued."
Remulla said the Taiwanese was arrested and detained in 2008 for operating an illegal drug laboratory in Tanza, Cavite. The reason for his supposed transport to Imus City this morning was also not clear yet. Maricar Cinco, Inquirer Southern Luzon

The 13th annual John Force Racing Holiday Car Show was estimated to be one of the biggest in recent memory by the fans and JFR personnel. A crowd of between 15,000 and 20,000 people enjoyed the sights and sounds on Sunday, December 5 at our Yorba Linda facility throughout the day. More than 1,000 hot rods and custom cars were on display, including talk show host Jay Leno's completely restored Ford Galaxie. The event would not have been possible without the help and support of the event's sponsors: SYSTEM 51, Auto Club of Southern California, Villa Ford and ROUSH.
We had a great show, and most importantly, we got a lot of toys for the kids in need. This event gives me some stress because I want to make sure everything is perfect, but all that stress goes away when I see that pile of toys that's taller than I am. I also want to thank all of the fans who came out and dropped off toys.
The CHiPs for Kids toy drive was the real winner as an estimated 8,000 toys were donated. Many fans brought multiple toys and there were morethan a dozen bicycles donated by So Cal Challengers Car Club. As always, the driver autograph line was a highlight of the day. All of the drivers, including me, Robert Hight, Ashley Force- Hood, Brittany Force, Courtney Force, Jack Beckman, Tom McEwen and Cory McClenathan along with George Barris and Chip Foose signed for fans in two different autograph sessions.
I get a lump in my throat when I see all of the toys because Christmas was sometimes a tough time of the year for my family when I was growing up. We didn't have a lot of money, but we had a lot of love. We had family and that is what really matters. I want to thank my own family for helping out during the car show, both my real family and my racing family. We had a ton of volunteers who started working before the sun came up on the day of the car show, and they were still working when the sun went down. It was a real team effort. The car show is our latest official event of the race season so I want to say thanks to all our fans and sponsors, especially Castrol, who has been with me for 25 years this year. It was a great season capped with a great championship that everyone contributed to. We'll go after it again in 2011, so enjoy a break in the racing action, and again, thanks for everything.

Findings point to significant barriers to accessing timely care for minorities
FRIDAY, Feb. 15 (HealthDay News) -- Blacks awaiting a lung transplant during a recent 10-year period were less likely to receive a new lung and more likely to die or be removed from the transplant list than whites, according to researchers.
The findings, published in the second February issue of the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, also showed that blacks on the transplant list between 1995 and 2004 were more likely to lack private insurance, live in poorer neighborhoods, and have greater cardiovascular risk factors, such as diabetes and pulmonary hypertension. However, these factors did not account for the findings.
These disparities are consistent with those observed among patients awaiting kidney and liver transplantation and among patients with other advanced lung diseases such as pulmonary arterial hypertension and pulmonary fibrosis, lead researcher Dr. David Lederer, of Columbia University Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. This finding was independent of age, lung function, cardiovascular risk factors, transplant center volume, type of health insurance coverage, and neighborhood poverty level.
The researchers assessed the 280 non-Hispanic black adults and 5,272 non-Hispanic white adults diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or emphysema who were on the United Network for Organ Sharing lung transplantation list between 1995 and 2004. The investigators tracked the outcomes (death, transplantation, removal from the list or still living) of those on the list and analyzed the results with respect to age, sex, disease severity, community poverty level and transplant center volume.
While the organ allocation system in place during the study period has been replaced with one that prioritizes patients based on the survival benefit of transplantation, Lederer sa

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- JPMorgan Chase (JPM - Get Report) is the second-largest stakeholder in The Tribune Company (TRBAA).
This isn't news in the technical sense. JPMorgan owned a 9% stake in The Tribune Company when it emerged from bankruptcy protection on Dec. 31. 2012, and some news reports even bothered to make mention of this fact at the time.
Still, chances are that if you told a regular follower of business news that JPMorgan is the second-largest owner of Tribune Co., you'd be met with surprise. Following Monday's announcement that the Tribune will pay $2.7 billion to buy 19 television stations, making it the nation's largest owner of commercial television stations, JPMorgan's stake becomes more significant. Oh, and of course JPMorgan is the main lender on the deal.
While this is nice for JPMorgan, it makes us wonder about those supposed laws separating banking and commerce.The bank holding company act in 1956, which was strengthened in 1970 said commercial companies can't own banks, explains Mehrsa Baradaran, University of Georgia law school professor who has written about the separation of banking and commerce. This law stymied efforts by Wal-Mart (WMT - Get Report) to get a banking charter in 2005, Baradaran says. Nonetheless, an exception was created in Utah 1987 allowing the creation of "industrial loan companies" (ILCs). This exception has allowed companies including American Express (AXP), Target (TGT), Volkswagen and General Electric (GS - Get Report), Goldman Sachs (GS - Get Report)and Morgan Stanley (MS - Get Report) to obtain banking charters. "First it was grandfathered in and then it became a loophole," Baradaran says. However, Wal-Mart's application in 2005 was met with fierce lobbying from the banking industry, causing the FDIC to create a moratorium on ILCs. The 2010 Dodd-Frank law reinstated that moratorium and, according to Baradaran "it

On the eve of Eid, the residents of Kondhwa have got a gift in the form of CCTV security cameras. In the backdrop of recent communal tension, residents of Kondhwa area have started installing CCTV cameras by themselves, and the first phase of it was inaugurated on Monday.
The CCTV surveillance system in Kondhwa has been purchased from donations collected by the Bhairobanath temple in Kondhwa. It was inaugurated by Deputy Police Commissioner (Zone IV), Manoj Patil.
The Bhairobananth temple trust secretary, Sanjay Lonkar said, "The temple is ancient and our temple is situated on the road which connects to Katraj. Katraj further connects to Satara highway and Katraj-Dehu Bypass. While interacting with the police, we came to know that such roads are mostly used by ruffians. The amount collected in the form of donation has been utilised to install CCTV cameras, and we have also built a small room near the temple which will be monitored by local residents and the police. The entire process of installing the cameras and cost us around Rs 1 lakh. At present, we have placed eight cameras on the road and the temple premises closeby."
Shabi Pathan, a resident of Kondhwa and a professor said, "All local residents had a meeting. With the help of experts and the police, the CCTV cameras have been installed. We had kept the deadline as August 15, but the work was fortunately completed earlier."
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone IV) Manoj Patil said, "It is a good initiative and this unity between the two communities could lead to cementing the bond between them.

How would Borg have fared in this slow era?

So many dummies. Ok, WTF is considered a very very slow court, you think it's fast??? That is one big reason Fed dominates Nadal on that surface when they play the year end championships. It also doesn't bounce too high. The other thing, why does your brain not factor in other things besides court speed? Borg tried to play competitively when he came out of retirement at age 25, but he actually couldn't adapt to everyone else who started using graphite and modern equipment. The era he dominated was natural gut and woodies. Players nowadays play with much more pace and more spin. Since the advent of polys and copolys the spin has really changed the spin in that of consistancy, and top spin, but also in terms of you can't just rush the net anymore and S/V like borg and so many other tennis greats of that time were doing on a constant basis. The game changed and it isn't just the court speed. How do you not know any of this and start a stupid thread basing your idea on one thing???

This is one reason that I think Borg is better than Nadal: he excelled on his best surfaces (slow surfaces) and was very, very good on the fast grass of Wimby. Conversely, I think if Nadal had played under Borg's conditions, he would have won the FO and maybe 1-2 other slams but that's it. When it comes to skill across all surfaces, Nadal seems more like a Vilas than a Borg.

Newcastle United midfielder Danny Guthrie has hailed the impact of Yohan Cabaye.
The former Lille star has been a revelation since his arrival on Tyneside.
"He's a top, top player and a top lad as well so it makes him easy to play with," Guthrie told The Journal.
"He's well liked in the dressing room as well. It's part of the squad's feeling as well. Everyone knows we lost some big personalities in the summer, but everyone gets on well with everyone else in the dressing room, and I think that's one of the reasons we've had such a good start to the season.
"He's still learning English but we can have a conversation and he's a very good player, which is the most important thing."
