Protection against danger
It is chiefly against the visually hunting predators that lepidopterans have evolved a multiplicity of defense mechanisms. The adults of many groups, such as skippers, many butterflies, hawk moths, and many underwing moths, have fast and erratic flight. When escaping, they dart or fall to cover and often remain immobile for some time. They have a good chance of survival, especially if their colour matches their surroundings. Larvae, especially when small, drop suddenly when disturbed, either dangling from a silk thread or falling to concealment on the ground. The larvae of some owlet moths can jump several inches. Dense, loose hairs and scales make many moths slippery and may facilitate their escape from sticky spiderwebs.
Certain owlet moths and possibly some measuring worm and snout moths that are subject to predation by bats are able to receive and identify the bats' navigational sound pulses. Upon hearing bat pulses, these moths perform radical evasive maneuvers when the bat sound is loud (hence close) or dive to the ground when the bat pulse is weaker (indicating that the danger is farther away). The greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella) can hear ultrasonic frequencies close to 300,000 hertz, which is in excess of the highest echolocation frequency known to be used by bats (212,000 hertz).
Targets such as prominent coloured eyespots or tails on the hind wings attract attention and focus the attacks of predators onto parts of the body that are less vulnerable to injury. Such spots are likely to be seized and torn off, but this does the moth or butterfly no real harm and gives it time to escape without vital injury.
Many species manage to hide very effectively from predators. Cutworms and other caterpillars hide in litter by day and feed only at night. Many moths hide in crevices or under loose bark. Some of these seem to have especially flat bodies for this purpose. Hibernating butterflies spend the winter in hollow trees or among dead leaves, where they hang immobile. The larvae of a great many moths, most skippers, and many butterflies live in individual nests of rolled, folded, or webbed leaves or grass. Sod webworms live in silk-lined tunnels in turf. Wood borers, especially those in rootstocks and deep tunnels, are relatively secure. Many larvae aggregate in communal nests—e.g., tent caterpillar moths (Malacosoma), the ermine moth (Yponomeuta), and the Mexican social white butterfly (Eucheira socialis). The larvae of the bagworm moths (family Psychidae) and casebearer moths (family Coleophoridae) live and pupate in individual portable cases that are often masked with bits of leaf or twig. Some larvae, such as those of the green measuring worm moths (Synchlora), attach bits of leaves or flower petals to themselves. Cocoons are frequently camouflaged with leaves or debris. The chrysalis of puss moths (Cerura) and some dagger moths (Apatela) is hard, woody, and inconspicuous.
Camouflage is a form of concealing coloration. Such a cryptic, or hidden, appearance occurs when the natural coloration or pattern of an organism allows it to blend in with its background. Concealing coloration works only in appropriate surroundings and only when accompanied by proper behaviour, which is usually immobility. Great numbers of larval, pupal, and adult Lepidoptera are thus protected in their usual locations on plants. Leaf-eating larvae usually blend into leafy environments. Many caterpillars have stripes that simulate leaf veins. The saw-toothed elm caterpillar (Nerice) has a jagged outline resembling the edge of an elm leaf. A great many measuring worms, or inchworms, are notably twiglike, with long, slender, stiffly held bodies. Many other caterpillars, especially those of prominent moths (family Notodontidae), have irregular shapes that resemble twisted dead leaves. Likewise, many adult moths that rest during the day among leaves or on bark are cryptically coloured and patterned. Their behavioral mechanisms, such as aligning stripes on their wings with patterns of the tree bark, help them blend in with the backgrounds on which they rest.
Many larvae and adults are disruptively marked with bold contrasting patches or bands of colour that break up their outlines into two or more seemingly unrelated masses. Many adult moths and butterflies have coloration that serves to startle and thus momentarily delay an attacker. Moths with cryptic forewings and butterflies with cryptic wing undersides show only these surfaces when they are at rest. When moths such as the underwing moths (Catocala) are disturbed, they move the cryptic forewings to expose bright patches of colour on the upper surface of the hind wings. When butterflies such as the morphos, hairstreaks, and anglewings are disturbed, they take flight, exposing brightly coloured upper wing surfaces. Regardless of the method, the effect is startling to predators. When the animal lands, the bright surfaces are suddenly hidden, causing it to disappear into the background. A similar "startle effect" protects larvae that have prominent spots that look like large eyes.
Many species produce startling sounds. Hawkmoth caterpillars and the pupae of many gossamer-winged butterflies make squeaking or grating sounds when disturbed. The adult death's head moth (Acherontia atropos) makes a loud chirping sound. Ageronia butterflies, when startled into flight, make a loud clicking sound by means of a structure on the wings. These sounds may have a startling and therefore delaying effect on a predator.
Certain butterflies and moths possess repellent or toxic substances that provide protection against predators. Sometimes these are secured directly from the plant on which the larva feeds, such as the toxic glycosides present in high concentrations within plants eaten by milkweed butterflies (family Nymphalidae) such as the monarch. More often, the toxin is produced by the insect itself and stored in the body, so that the predator must taste the insect to know it is toxic. The toxin often occurs in the blood—e.g., hydrogen cyanide in burnet moths. Other toxins may be in the gut or may be the product of special glands, which release the toxin at the time of an attack. Tiger moths (family Arctiidae) give off drops of repellent from glands on the prothorax. Many groups show reflex bleeding (autohemorrhization) from leg and body joints when disturbed. The larvae of swallowtail butterflies (Papilio) and tussock moths (family Lymantriidae) give off strong-smelling, volatile substances from extrusible scent organs (osmeteria). The caterpillars of many prominent moths spray formic acid from ventral prothoracic glands. Many larvae and some adults possess hollow barbed hairs that introduce toxins into potential predators, causing pain and swelling. Caterpillars of the slug moths (family Limacodidae), flannel moths (family Megalopygidae), Io moths, and some tussock moths are noted for this. A few adult moths (e.g., the garden, or great, tiger moth [Arctia caja]) inject toxins through sharp spines on their hind legs. The great majority of protected forms are aposematic; that is, they have markings, shapes, or behaviour that draw attention. They are thus easily recognized and remembered by predators, which, after trying to feed on only one or two individuals, will leave other similarly patterned individuals alone.
Not all warning mechanisms are visual. Inedible tiger moths make high-pitched grating sounds by means of timbal (drumlike) organs. These sounds are inaudible to humans but can be heard by bats, and they may function to warn the bat of the moth's inedibility. This allows the moth to avoid being captured and tasted. Some authorities believe that these sounds also may interfere with the bats' acoustic orientation system, preventing them from detecting the moth.
The protective advantage gained by a distasteful or dangerous insect that advertises that defense, either by aposematic coloration or acoustic warning, may also be utilized by similar harmless and edible insects. The evolution of such resemblances results in a phenomenon known as mimicry. (For background information on this phenomenon, see mimicry.) The distasteful insect, called the model, may even belong to an insect order completely different from that of the mimic. For example, members of various lepidopteran families mimic wasps, bees, or beetles. The clearwing moths are particularly effective mimics of certain stinging wasps, the resemblance being carried to details of the shape and coloration of the wings, abdomen, and legs.
The occurrence in a population of two or more distinct hereditary variants, or morphs, is known in many lepidopterans. Each morph may have a different adaptive value, linked with such physiological features as resistance to cold or to toxins in the environment. Striking variation in appearance may have great adaptive value by confusing predators, making it more difficult for them to learn the appearance of the prey. Mixed populations of both light and dark (melanic) individuals may survive better in habitats containing both light and dark backgrounds on which they rest during the day. This may also allow the entire population to survive if the environment changes either through normal succession of forest growth or because of man-made phenomena such as industrial pollution. In England investigations of the peppered moth Biston betularia have abundantly documented the evolution of "industrial" and "natural" melanism and have shown that major genetic population changes can take place very rapidly.
Striking polymorphisms occur in some mimetic species, notably the African swallowtail (Papilio dardanus). The occurrence of different species of inedible butterfly models in various geographic regions has been accompanied by the evolution of correspondingly different mimetic females of this single species of swallowtail. In North America the tiger swallowtail (P. glaucus) has mostly black females wherever it coexists with the distasteful pipevine swallowtail (Battus philenor), which is also black. However, where B. philenor does not occur, P. glaucus females tend to be all nonmimetic yellow forms like the males because, without the black models, black has no protective significance. Some very striking mimetic polymorphisms occur among Neotropical Heliconius butterflies and their various models and mimics.

Lockheed Martin released this promotional video of their famed Skunk Works division a couple of weeks ago. The video highlights the company's historic achievements but also shows off some more recent concepts. In a segment titled "Global Strike" was this aircraft–could this be what Lockheed's Long Range Strike-Bomber proposal might look like?
Well, the answer is probably not, but cool concept. The US Air Force's ambitions for the LRS-B are for a more modest aircraft from what few indications there are.
Also here are a couple of images of Lockheed's sixth-gen F-22 replacement concept, which ironically looks a lot like the Northrop YF-23..

Two policemen on patrol were attacked and seriously injured by a group of young men after midnight on Friday, at Nalasopara.
The constables, who were riding a bike, spotted the three men at Oswal Nagari and stopped to question them. One of the men attacked the cops with a hammer.
One of the policemen, Sandesh Ghegadmal, 26, was hit on the head and suffered serious wounds. As the other cop, Sashi Patil, 27, stepped up to defend his colleague he too was hit and injured.
They managed to catch the assailant, who was identified as Sharadchandra Sharma. But the two others ran away.
The two policemen are being treated at Alliance hospital in Nalasopara. Ghegadmal had to undergo stitches and he is under observation in the intensive care unit, said Irfan Nadaf, investigating officer at Nalasopara police station.
Not much is known immediately about the assailant or his accomplices. The police said they have registered a case of attempt to murder under sections 307, 353, 332, 333 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code that also carry punishment for assault to deter a public servant from discharging his duty.

This is a beautiful home in a beautiful location. Everything in the home was well maintained as well as furnished.
The gulf views were spectactular as well as all the wildlife we saw. The docks are amazing to put the boat onto.
This home is located walking distance to anything you could think of to do. My only wish is that we were able to enjoy the beautiful pool and hot tub more then we were able too. I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting this area of Florida. Donna And Brad Busch
We had an excellent stay at this awesome home in Fort Myers Beach. We were really impressed with the pool layout and hot tub. We spent lots of time using both! We also loved the bay and canal around the house and large yard where you could hang out and watch the boats come in. This house is only a five minute walk from the beach. We really enjoyed going to all the shops by the beach at night. There are lots of good restaurants to eat at as well. The house is incredible, we stayed in a room on the top floor with a huge walk out deck and sliding doors. The main floor has a huge kitchen and an ice maker, perfect for making meals and keeping your drink cold. Overall, we were BLOWN AWAY by this house and all the stuff to do in Fort Myers Beach. We hope we can come back soon!
We really enjoyed the beautiful accommodations at this home. The location is fantastic- near shops, restaurants, and the beach. Our favorite part of the location was that the home is situated right on the bay. We enjoyed watching the boats come and go from the hot tub and the living spaces inside. The house itself is beautiful, with spacious master suites that open onto a large balcony. The master suites and living areas have walls of sliding doors that can be opened to give a very open-air feel. Very nice kitchen with high end appliances, and many indoor and outdoor locations to eat and relax. We loved the pool and hot tub. The house and property were very clean and well-maintained. Beautiful and relaxing setting and home!
Our stay in Fort Meyers Beach this past weekend was incredible! This beach home was far nicer than I imagined! The online pictures don't do it justice! The weather was great when we were there, but even if it hadn't been, our stay would've still been wonderful! The view alone from this house is worth the trip! We even were able to sleep with our sliding doors open each night and listen to the lapping water and the breeze. We've been to Maui before and the atmosphere at this place felt similar! The pool and hot tub are amazing! That's where we spent most of our weekend, and we just watched all the boats go by without having to be at a busy beach! We even saw several dolphins right by our dock, it was so exciting! When we wanted to go to the beach, it was only a three minute walk away! That was so nice to not have to worry about parking or paying to park, we could walk everywhere we needed to go, but have the seclusion and privacy this property offered when we were ready to relax! Times square is also about ten minutes walking distance away. It has all the shopping and eating you could ask for, along with a beautiful pier going into the gulf and white sand beaches as far as the eye can see. We did not want to leave! The house was very luxurious and huge! The first day I got confused trying to find my room back because it's so large! It has an amazing open layout that's ideal for visiting with friends and family! There are large decks on each floor you can sit out on to eat or play games or just relax! We had an amazing time at this home! Our only regrets were that we didn't stay longer and that we had to leave!

Location, location, location!!
This house is perfectly located. I throughly enjoyd being in walking distance from the park, trails, beach, restaurants and shopping. The home is tucked away from all of the noise surrounded by palms, but still right on the water. Top of the line appliances, and floor to celing windows made our stay feel top notch. Looking forward to another visit, the large sweet made it easy to unpack and feel relaxed. We will absolutely be returning in 2015.
This was our 2nd time to this home, and we will definitly be back. The location is perfect, just a short stroll to all the shops,restaurants, and pier. And only a block or so from the beach. The view from the house on the bay is spectacular, great for watching Dolphins and fish. And having a pool and hot tub make it the best place to stay on Fort Meyer Beach.
The house accommodated all 6 of us easily.

Stelera Not a good option
by crwicker - 7/13/10 8:56 AM
In Reply to: Rural area Internet by rsei0120
We live in Texas and Stelera is anything but good. There speeds are not constant, they constantly drop my connection and if the wind blows even a little the system goes down and forget trying to connect at night. Sure during the day is fine but everyone I talk to says the same thing. Between 5 and 10 at night it's useless. That's pretty much the only time I do get on and now I'm stuck in this pathetic contract and they refuse to let me out of it.

Candesartan Versus Propranolol for Migraine Prevention
The main aim of the present study is to compare candesartan with propranolol for migraine prophylaxis.
Candesartan was shown to be effective for migraine prophylaxis in a randomized double blind cross-over study published in 2003. The drug is now widely used for this purpose in many countries, although no confirmatory study has been published. The aims of the present study are: 1) to see if the results in the first candesartan study can be replicated in a new patient population, including patients with chronic migraine, and, 2) to perform a head-to-head comparison of candesartan 16 mg/day with standard treatment with propranolol 160 mg slow release. We also intend to study whether responsiveness to these drugs may be related to heart rate variability and baroreceptor sensitivity.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
A widely used non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic antagonist. Propranolol has been used for MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; ARRHYTHMIA; ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; HYPERTHYROIDISM; MIGRAINE; PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA; and ANXIETY but adverse effects instigate replacement by newer drugs.
Bacterial Capsules
An envelope of loose gel surrounding a bacterial cell which is associated with the virulence of pathogenic bacteria. Some capsules have a well-defined border, whereas others form a slime layer that trails off into the medium. Most capsules consist of relatively simple polysaccharides but there are some bacteria whose capsules are made of polypeptides.
A beta-adrenergic antagonist similar in action to PROPRANOLOL. The levo-isomer is the more active. Timolol has been proposed as an antihypertensive, antiarrhythmic, antiangina, and antiglaucoma agent. It is also used in the treatment of MIGRAINE DISORDERS and tremor.
Tablets, Enteric-coated
Tablets coated with material that delays release of the medication until after they leave the stomach. (Dorland, 28th ed)
Dosage Forms
Completed forms of the pharmaceutical preparation in which prescribed doses of medication are included. They are designed to resist action by gastric fluids, prevent vomiting and nausea, reduce or alleviate the undesirable taste and smells associated with oral administration, achieve a high concentration of drug at target site, or produce a delayed or long-acting drug effect.

Yes, you read that right. His mother. A development that would have made the Star Wars prequels very, very different. This was just one of the bizarre fan rumors that the Star Wars Fan Club collected at the time and shared with the cast and crew, to their amusement. One fan rumor that Mark Hamill really liked: Han Solo and Darth Vader were somehow "fused," so that Luke couldn't kill Vader without also killing Han." - io9 Review

Chitwood Harley Harnes LLP Announces Certification of a Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against Diamond Foods, Inc. Business Wire SAN FRANCISCO -- June 28, 2013 Chitwood Harley Harnes LLP announces that a "Class" comprised of investors (individuals and entities) who purchased publicly traded securities of Diamond Foods, Inc. ("Diamond") from October 5, 2010 through February 8, 2012 (the "Class Period") has been certified by the United States District Court for the Northern District of California in a lawsuit against Diamond and two of its former executives ("Defendants"). The lawsuit claims that Defendants deliberately understated commodity costs – specifically, the costs of walnuts – by improperly accounting for payments made to walnut growers. This understatement of costs increased apparent profits and artificially inflated Diamond's share price during a period in which Diamond was seeking to use its stock to acquire Pringles, a snack chip brand owned by Procter & Gamble Co. The action alleges that Defendants' conduct violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Court denied Defendants' motions to dismiss the claims but has not ruled on the merits of the claims or the defenses asserted by either side in the lawsuit (with the exception of having dismissed claims against Diamond's auditor). Those who wish to remain members of the Class do not have to do anything at this time and will be informed about any claims process that results from the trial or any proposed settlement. Class members will be bound by all orders and judgments of the Court. Class members may exclude themselves from the Class. To do so, they must mail a written request for exclusion to Diamond Foods, Inc. Securities Litigation, c/o KCC Class Action Services, P.O. Box 6159, Novato, CA 94948-6159 by September 17, 2013. The request for exclusion must: (1) state the name and address of the person or entity requesting exclusion; (2) specify the number and type of Diamond Foods, Inc. securities purchased and sold from October 5, 2010, through February 8, 2012, and specify the dates of these purchases and sales; (3) state that the person or entity "requests exclusion from the Class in the Diamond Foods, Inc. Litigation;" and (4) be signed by the person or entity requesting exclusion. Class members who exclude themselves from the Class cannot participate in any recovery for the Class, and will not be bound by any court orders or judgments. The lawsuit is entitled In re Diamond Foods, Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 3:11-cv-05386 WHA.

Ok, this guy was only lvl 6 but I was looking forward to this. Having hardly any attributes and not wanting to waste my time messing around with unnecessarily detailed perfecting, my more ambitious ideas go on hold. So I keep it simple:
6 healing
2 divine
1 smiting
vigorous spirit
dwaynas kiss
healing light [e]
smite hex
mend condition
ressurection signet (had horrible images of using a slow res and letting everything die)
heal party
What I was assuming was the monk would maintain vigorous spirit on everyone, pretty useful as Im a paragon and at least 1 of my 2 other team members were not casters. Then dwaynas kiss would be used alternatively with healing light as the most efficient heals available, perhaps heal party being used when the whole party was low on health, mend and smite being used as necessary on any hexes and conditions that came the partys way.
Sadly not. VS was used once in 20 mins of clearing an area apparently to counter hex-based degen, in a similar way to how the doppelganger wont use healing breeze unless degened. Mend condition was the heal of choice, sadly without the prot investment it wasnt doing much in the way of healing, with healing light being used whenever there wasnt anything to remove (on an unenchanted ally of course )
Anyway Ive abandoned all hope of setting up a monk as a boon-bonder, my personal favourite monk build to play. But Id love some advice on how I can get a monk to simply maintain vigorous spirit on all the meleers in the party, without having to manually select the spell? I don't think I was expecting much, I've scanned the hero AI thread afterall, and theres perfectly reasonable other monk builds I can probably try, just wanted to get this relatively simple one up and running if possible. Yeah, this thread isn't a guide more of a cry for help

|History of Georgia
The media in Georgia includes television, newspapers and radio. A large percentage of Georgian households have a television, and most have at least one radio. Most of Georgia's media companies are headquartered in its capital and largest city, Tbilisi.
The Public Broadcasting Channel is publicly funded, and broadcasts on free-to-air television and radio.
The Rustavi 2 network produced significant coverage of the 2003 Rose Revolution. The station currently reaches around 84% of the country's population, as well as Europe, the European part of Russia and the Middle East via satellite.[citation needed] The station was frequently critical of the Eduard Shevardnadze government, and reported on corruption and human rights abuses. In 2001 a security police raid on Rustavi 2 resulted in mass street demonstrations against governments pressure, after which President Shevardnadze fired his entire cabinet.[1]
Other major television broadcasters 2008 include Imedi TV, Maestro, TV 9, Caucasia.
Whilst the authorities finance some publications,[which?] there are some 200 privately owned newspapers.[citation needed] Most of these are based in Tbilisi, which is home to a number of newspaper publishing houses. Georgian newspapers include the daily 24 Saati (24 Hours), Rezonansi (Resonance), Alia, Akhali Taoba, and English-language newspapers Georgian Messenger, The FINANCIAL (weekly), Georgia Today (weekly), The Georgian Times (weekly).
Tbilisi radio stations include Imedi Radio (105.9FM), Fortuna, and Radio 105. Imedi mainly concentrates on news and commentary, but broadcasts pop music as well, particularly at night-time.
Censorship and media freedom[edit]
According to Reporters Without Borders in 2005, Georgia was in 89th position on a list of countries ranked by press freedom; behind Moldova (85th) and Mongolia (86th) - both countries deemed to be in transition to Democracy from Communism.[citation needed] This ranking was primarily due to the limited diversity in media ownership, and self-censorship.
During the Sandro Girgvliani murder case the media businessman Badri Patarkatsishvili, owner of Imedi Media Holding, stated that the Georgian authorities were mounting pressure on his station and other businesses after it had broadcast details of the scandal. "It is no secret that Imedi television was the first one which reported the circumstances of Sandro Girgvliani's murder...this alone became a reason for the authorities' dissatisfaction, which triggered the financial authorities to actively launch a probe into my businesses and my companies so [as] to force me to mount pressure against [my] journalists..and facilitate the creation of a favorable image of the authorities," Badri Patarkatsishvili went on to say that he would never yield to pressure from the authorities.[2]
In addition, on July 6 Eka Khoperia, an anchor with Rustavi 2, announced during her live program that she was resigning, after refusing to follow instructions from the authorities.[3]
On 27 March 2012, the editor of Forbes Georgia, Revaz Sakevarishvili, resigned because of alleged censorship, claiming that "there has been quite a serious attempt to put pressure and establish censorship." According to Sakevarishvili, the owners of the Media Partners, the holding company which owns publishing rights to Forbes Georgia had actively tried to alter materials about opposition parties or prevent their publication altogether.[4]

REGION: Deputies to be offered early retirement in effort to save county $41 million
County hopes it will save $41 million
RIVERSIDE -- Riverside County officials are negotiating with the Sheriff's Department and the unions representing the deputies to put together an incentive program that they hope will coax several hundred deputies into early retirement, thus helping the county avoid layoffs and maintain services.
For the fiscal year beginning July 1, the county is struggling to find ways to cut $130 million from the $727 million in this year's budget that it directly controls. Preliminary estimates suggest an early retirement program for deputies could generate annual savings up to $41.1 million in salary and benefits.
If the retirement recruitment falls short and talks break down on persuading deputies and other county workers to accept pay and benefit cuts, the county has said as many as 1,000 layoffs could be made, 588 of them from the ranks of county public safety employees.
The Riverside Sheriffs Association represents 3,367 employees, most of them sheriff's deputies but also district attorney's investigators, coroner's investigators and probation officers. A separate union, the Law Enforcement Management Unit, represents 425 sergeants, lieutenants and captains with the department. Many of the retirements likely would come from their ranks.
Pay for sheriff's deputies starts at about $53,000 per year and tops out at about $80,000; annual pay for sergeants begins at about $79,000; yearly pay for captains begins at about $101,000 and tops out at about $146,000.
As proposed, the early retirement plan grants two additional years of service, which would, for example, make deputies with 28 years of service eligible to retire at a pay level for 30-year deputies. County executive Bill Luna will present the plan at Tuesday's Board of Supervisors meeting.
How many deputies would sign up for an early retirement offer is unknown, although officials say 354 public safety employees are eligible. A similar offer to the county's other workers was expected to attract a few hundred employees, but 702 signed up. Their departure is expected to save the county $66.3 million initially on an annual basis, the county said.
Third District Supervisor Jeff Stone says he has strong concerns about the early retirement plan for public safety employees. "What is that going to do to service?" he asked.
Some supervisors and law enforcement experts say that if the department promotes rapidly and hires new patrol officers quickly it can mitigate the effect of the losses in people and expertise. However, California Public Employees Retirement System rules require that vacancies created in early retirement programs remain unfilled. In hiring any new workers, new and different positions must be created.
In an early retirement program such as the one the county is proposing, "if you still have enough folks with 15 to 20 years' experience, you can be OK," said Philip Kellette, former crime lab director with the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department who now teaches crime-scene evidence-gathering at the UC Riverside Extension.
"We may have to bolster the training for those who would advance," said 1st District Supervisor Bob Buster.
Most involved in the talks acknowledge, though, that regardless of how many accept the offer, it likely would take years to replace the people lost to the early retirement plan and even longer to replace the departed expertise. That means a greater workload for the deputies remaining after the departures, notes Larry Gaines, criminology professor at Cal State San Bernardino. However, he says, "the higher priority now is balancing the budget rather than organizational effectiveness."

You may want to look over those numbers again. $1.4 mil over a 9 year career is about $160,000 per year. Expenses run about $140,000 a year. Perhaps his expenses have run a little less because he doesn't get very deep in draws, and has generally had dismal success outside the USA. He's 38 and 86 in wins and losses on the main tour in singles, and the prize money also includes doubles.
I'm sure the Nike sponsorship paid well but your analysis of a 'comfortable living' may be a little off. But he is doing what he loves, and that is what really matters. For sure. He's living his own dream, which is cool.
Well...that and winning...professional athletes play to win as far as I know. Be all that you can be. Reach your potential. All that good stuff.

Mahach Murtazaliev v Buvaisar Saitiev, Russian nationals 2007, 74 kg final
Mahach Murtazaliev v Buvaisar Saitiev, Russian nationals 2007, 74 kg final
Saitiev looked sloppy. I can't tell if its the age thing or a lack of competition the last couple of years.
The match overall looked very similar to his match against Slay at 2000 Olympics. Mahach has a similar body type to Slay too.
Thanks a lot akzent.
no matter how good you are, a year without training at such a high level, when everyone is scouting you and training to beat you, will not turn out well.
as can be seen from his worlds 2006 matches, saitiev looked very tired, and his timing was not right. some are making references to his age, but the guy is only 32!!!
for what it's worth, my sources believe that he will make the comeback and represent russia in 2008. let's hope he can stay healthy! i also believe these few losses will motivate his training.
Saitiev may be only 32 but he has been performing at this level for 10-12 years and his body can only take so much and is probably not healing as fast. I still would never count him out either.
very true. john smith spoke about how he was able to stay healthy (at least healthy enough to keep on competing) during all those years. he said he would go up to 4 months each year without any live wrestling, not even in practice. he said he was just a drilling machine. perhaps saitiev should take a note from the smith pages.
however, i'm not sure how much leniency the russian coaches give their wrestlers. it seems that they have strict programs and every wrestler on their club/team must adhere to it.
Satiev started winning Worlds at 20 years old. He is on his 12th year of competition and getting ready for his 4th Olympics. This is almost unprecedented for a middle weight. You have to realize 145 and 163 is where the most number of wrestlers from all over the world usually compete.
oh, i completely understand what you are saying. but thats what makes saitiev my favorite wrestler. and that's exactly why i would love for him to find a way to get one last title.
whats the story with nazarian from bulgaria? is he still trying to make it to his 4th olympics as well? i would love to see the both of them win it.
My sources tell me that Nazarian cuts a lot of weight. Something like 15 kgs.
quick, do you happen to have his match vs Ji-Hyun Jung (korea) from athens? i befriended ji jyun and have seen him practice several times, but have never seen him in competition.

I love the concept of the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, but I admit there are times I wonder did I really need to know that. There is such a thing as too much information and there is the reverse…see New Jersey Transit and how it prepared for Superstorm Sandy.
While I am not ready to fully condemn the agency that operates bus, light rail and commuter rail services, I am reluctant to forgive the multitude of sins committed prior to Sandy; but mostly their unwillingness now, more than six months after the epic storm, to discuss what it did to prepare for the Superstorm.
Claims the agency's storm preparation plan could present a security risk if released, well, that's a little too convenient. Still, the logical part of me totally understands how "recent events, including the uncovering of an al-Qaida-led terrorist plot targeting rail services reinforces why NJ Transit will not disclose sensitive information."
That's what John Durso, Jr., NJ Transit spokesperson, wrote in an email last week.
I can't speak for everyone, but I think most people just want to know you and your agency are taking the necessary precautions to limit service interruptions (when possible) and protect commuters.
NJ Transit's decision to leave its trains at the 72-acre Meadows Maintenance Complex, near the banks of the Hackensack and Passaic rivers, and in Hoboken, near the Hudson River, has been under fire since Sandy first struck. Sandy damaged 342 pieces of NJ Transit equipment and cost the agency $120 million. While the agency anticipates recouping the money in insurance and federal aid, it's likely the commuters will be the ones to foot the bill. Isn't that always the way?
A joint request from the Bergen Record and WNYC/New Jersey Public Radio about whether the NJ Transit branded locations at risk for flooding prior to the storm went unanswered; as did questions about whether rail crews were ready and if police officers assigned to emergency management positions were schooled in deciphering weather reports.
While officials refuse to discuss preparations with the news media in detail, it's been documented on the agency's website, statements issued during Sandy and in testimony on both Capitol Hill and in Trenton.
None of this is helping NJ Transit's case. In most instances, it just widens the gaping hole in how NJ Transit and New York's MTA prepared for the same storm. Far from being angels, the MTA was ready when Sandy carved her path of destruction Oct. 29.
Add in the fact agency officials ignored a $46,000 climate change study, one they commissioned and that warned of higher storm surges in Kearny and Hoboken, well…it's easy to see why so many are hot under the collar 196 days after Sandy made landfall.

Lakers beat Hornets 104-96 to stay in hunt
LOS ANGELES Kobe Bryant looked around, drew in a breath and gathered himself. Time for one of the game's best closers to get to work with the score tied to start the fourth quarter.
He fueled a desperate rally with 23 of his 30 points in the last 12 minutes, and the Los Angeles Lakers beat the New Orleans Hornets 104-96 on Tuesday night to keep their playoff hopes alive.
"Aw ... I got to go in again and I really didn't want to," Bryant said he was thinking. "It's about conserving energy. The more I can kind of lag in the weeds the better."
But that depends on his teammates.
"If you're making shots, I can sit back," Bryant said. "If you're playing (bad), I can't."
No Laker but Bryant made a shot in the first seven minutes of the fourth. He had just four points at halftime.
"It is really just about me making shots. It is not really the defense," said Bryant, who had ice on his left shoulder and both knees after the game. "They keyed in on my penetration, but I know I could range over the defense and get the shot. So, with games like this, when the jumper is falling, you have fourth quarters like I had."
Pau Gasol had 22 points and 11 rebounds, and Dwight Howard added 19 points to help the Lakers move a half-game ahead of Utah for the eighth and final Western Conference playoff spot. The Jazz lost to Oklahoma City 90-80 earlier in the evening, but they hold the tiebreaker over the Lakers.
"We were pretty effective wearing down their bigs, especially late in the game," Howard said. "We just needed this game. It was intense. We got four games left. We control our own destiny."
Bryant urged Gasol to position himself down low where he's most effective and stay put.
"I haven't gotten to the post as much as I did tonight all year long," he said. "My teammates looked for me."
Eric Gordon scored 22 points, making 10 of 11 free throws, before fouling out in the final seconds to lead five Hornets in double figures. Anthony Davis added 18 points and 14 rebounds, Ryan Anderson had 14 points, and Greivis Vasquez had 11 points and 11 assists.
Metta World Peace returned for the Lakers less than two weeks after undergoing left knee surgery and had four points in 15 minutes as they won their third in a row at home.
Bryant put on his usual show in the fourth quarter that began with the teams tied at 70-all. He scored the Lakers' first seven points for a 77-70 lead, drawing chants of "Kobe! Kobe!"
"I knew I needed to be aggressive," he said. "Our energy had been down all game."
The Hornets ran off six in a row to take an 82-80 lead. Bryant answered with two straight jumpers before Davis' basket tied the game for the last time at 84-all.
From there, the Hornets were outscored 20-12.

The eurozone crisis and a tightening regulatory screw have intensified a mismatch between emerging trade flows and the provision of trade finance. Latin American companies and
European banks have a long history in Latin America, closely
related to international trade. The 2008/09 global financial
crisis placed many of them in a strong position as US banks
backed off from trade finance lending.
But the eurozone crisis of 2011 triggered a reversal of
fortunes, with a large-scale retrenchment of trade finance
lending by European banks, which had been an essential part of
the market. Gaps emerged – and were often exacerbated
– in the provision of trade finance both direct to
corporate clients and to financial institutions.
Today, a renewed European recession, a lackluster recovery
in the US, and a slowdown in China, have compelled Latin
American companies and their national governments to explore
developing new trade and investment flows.
In 2011, Latin America's exports grew 5.3% and
imports 10.4% – well above the world average
– but with global growth slowing there are...
