Luzerne County officials are poised to discuss getting out of the recreation business.
Outside entities already handle programming and activities at the county's Fort Fort Recreational Complex and River Common in Wilkes-Barre, and the state may be interested in acquiring the county's two remaining facilities: the Seven Tubs Nature Area in Plains Township and Moon Lake Park in Plymouth Township.
The county's citizen Recreational Facilities Advisory Board presented a report to council committee members Tuesday urging them to initiate discussions with the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources about a possible state takeover of the Tubs and Moon Lake.
Committee members agreed to advance the matter to the full 11-member County Council for its consideration.
The Tubs on state Route 115, which features hiking trails along scenic waterfalls, has been targeted by vandals and illegal dumpers, officials say.
The state had declined the county's past request to take over ownership of the Tubs.
However, the advisory board said the state is interested in the Seven Tubs at this time because the state eventually will own and maintain a Delaware & Lehigh Trail extension in the works running from Mountain Top to the Tubs and into Wilkes-Barre.
The financially strapped county has no plans to start policing and maintaining the Tubs, and state ownership would improve public access, park upkeep and security, the board said.
"With improvements, more county residents would feel comfortable utilizing this beautiful natural area," the board report said.
Moon Lake
Moon Lake has been on the decline for years as budget cuts prompted officials to eliminate a full-time director and seasonal support staff and close the in-ground swimming pool and camping sites. County officials have estimated millions of dollars would be needed for repairs to the water and sewage treatment systems and other park infrastructure.
The park is open for passive activities that don't require intensive county oversight, such as fishing, mountain biking, hiking and cross-country skiing.
During Tuesday's committee meeting, county Councilman Harry Haas described Moon Lake Park as a "total mess."
Haas recently spent time at the 650-acre park as part of a volunteer clean-up and said he was dismayed to find telephone poles cut down so thieves could get at the copper wire. The park office has been boarded up to prevent vandalism and theft, he said.
"It's a sad state of affairs," he said.
Several state officials and agencies have expressed a willingness to discuss a state takeover of Moon Lake, advisory board members said.
State ownership could result in additional trail heads and parking areas, the advisory board said.
Haas said 41 volunteers participated in the April 26 clean-up, or twice as many as the prior year, which is evidence people care about the park.
Advisory Board Chairman Phil Russo told council members he counted another more than 103 people around the lake fishing at Moon Lake the day of the clean-up.
Moon Lake was the "jewel in the crown" of the county for many years with its pool and camping but is now in "disarray," advisory board member Paul Lumia told the committee. He believes the buildings at the park must be torn down due to deterioration.
"It's really sad to see," Lumia said. "We really need to take Moon Lake to the next level."
State eyeing tract
The state also is interested in another 400-acre, county-owned parcel adjacent to Moon Lake that would connect two sections of state forest, the advisory board said. The state wants to build a trail from the Susquehanna River to state Route 118 through the county-owned parcel, the board said.
The county also purchased other parcels north of Moon Lake Park that were part of former watershed properties previously owned by Theta Land Corp. that may be of interest to the state, the board said.
Councilwoman Linda McClosky Houck noted Moon Lake is tied in borrowing packages approved by prior administrations.
The county twice obtained cash for operating expenses with an unusual financing mechanism in which the park was "leased" to the county Industrial Development Authority on paper. The authority borrowed funds to give the county money to cover the imaginary lease, and the county is repaying the bonds with interest to "sublease" it back.
County Chief Solicitor C. David Pedri said these outstanding loans would have to be addressed as part of any sale or transfer of Moon Lake to the state.
The county doesn't have to pay to maintain and operate the soccer fields and other amenities at the Forty Fort Recreational Complex because those responsibilities are handled by Whitewater Challengers, which has a public-private partnership agreement with the county.
The county covers maintenance of the River Common landing, fishing pier, amphitheater and other non-flood-control amenities along the Susquehanna River but relies on the Riverfront Parks Committee to organize and seek donations for events.
County officials have resisted taking on proposed new recreational projects — including restoration of the now-demolished Ashley coal breaker, creation of the historic Ashley Planes Heritage Park in the Mountain Top area and a skateboard park near the county courthouse — in recent years because the cash-strapped county struggles to maintain what it already owns.

Mid-Atlantic Indoor Showcase Addes to 2010 Schedule
Perfect Game Staff
Tuesday, December 01, 2009
Perfect Game USA is pleased to announce that the Mid-Atlantic Indoor Showcase has been added to our schedule of events for 2010.
This new indoor showcase will be held in Delmar, Md., on Jan. 30-31 at the Diamond Dreams Athletic Performance and Fitness Center, making it convenient for players from the talent-rich Mid-Atlantic region to participate in our program.
This is a one-day showcase, so players will need to designate whether they want to attend on Jan. 30 or Jan. 31 when they enroll. There is space for 100 players each day.
Players will be able to showcase their skills in the 40-yard dash, outfield throw, infield throw, first baseman's throw, catcher pop times, batting practice and live pitching to batters. A full scouting report on each player will be added to the Perfect Game data base for college coaches, pro scouts and players to see.
Please click on the list of showcases for 2010 on the Perfect Game home page, then click on Mid-Atlantic Indoor to begin the registration process. You may request an invitation now.
Once you click on the Mid-Atlantic Indoor, you'll also find information on what to bring to the event and how to get significant discounts on your hotel, airfare and car rental. Additional information will be posted as it becomes available.
All of the players at the Mid-Atlantic Indoor Showcase will be filmed by BaseballWebTV and posted on-line. You also can order your own video.
The addition of the Mid-Atlantic Indoor Showcase is part of our continuing effort to bring Perfect Game events to new parts of the country.

Call it a different kind of crate digging. With Beastie Boys calling it a day following the death of Adam Yauch (aka McA, Rip), you might think there's not too many goodies left in the archives for the legendary hip hop group to share with fans. But you'd be mistaken. You can thank Irish studio Eoin McLernon for clicking around the internet and finding this unreleased video for "Too Many Rappers" ft. Nas. And for fans, it's definitely worth a watch. From the band's final album Hot Sauce Committee Part Two, the Roman Coppola-directed spot is a pretty lo-fi affair, filming the rappers in a variety of locations, and cutting together the footage into something that definitely captures the classic flavor of both the Beasties and Nas. It's definitely in the spirit of the Beastie Boys, even if not on the same level of spectacle as some of their latter-era videos. »

On New Year's Day, Congress acted to make the prior estate and gift tax regime permanent, with one small change - the estate tax rate has been increased from 35% to 40%. The rest of the estate and gift tax regime, including the $5 million (indexed for inflation) gift and estate tax exclusion amount and the favorable "portability" provisions, have been continued. In addition, the "annual exclusion" for gift tax purposes has increased (due to indexing for inflation) the tax free amount each person can gift to another person each year to $14,000.
For the past few years, many individuals have postponed updating their wills and trusts to take into account tax law changes because those changes were set to expire on January 1, 2013. The new year comes with good news: the wait is over. An estate plan review could help avoid unwelcome family discord after death. Estate plans can be updated to avoid significant unintended consequences that could be built in to documents prepared based on older, lower, exclusion amounts.
The current gift and estate tax rates and exclusion amounts are, when compared to the past few decades, very favorable to taxpayers. However, the tax bite is still very serious for larger estates, especially those that hold a concentration of illiquid interests in businesses or real estate.
Luckily, Congress has not acted (yet) on President Obama's proposals which would make several popular estate tax avoidance techniques ineffective. In other words, there are still many opportunities for individuals to plan in advance to reduce the impact of the estate tax.
Whether their goal is to replace out-of-date documents or to implement tax savings strategies, individuals should see Congress' resolution of prior uncertainty as a call to action. After all, what better New Year's Resolution can there be than to provide long term financial security for your loved ones?

NYT Story Opens Door For Ravitch
If Paterson resigns, new governor is a Jew
So after weeks of rumors and a couple articles that drew little if any blood, the New York Times today ran an investigative piece on New York Governor David Paterson that could well prove fatal to the Democrat's tenure. In essence, it reports a heap of circumstantial evidence—without, it should be said, a true smoking gun—that Paterson personally intervened to make a domestic assault allegation against a longtime aide go away. If Paterson used the power and prerogatives of his office to influence the criminal justice system away from doing its job when it came to credible allegations of violence against a woman, then, well, would you want him remaining as your governor?
Blogger Ben Smith, a keen observer of the absurd world of New York state politics, reports that many state Democrats—oh, right, did we mention this is a gubernatorial election year?—are uneasy with the prospect of Paterson running for reelection, as he announced he would last Saturday; one operative calls the article "lethal." Already, Rep. Steve Israel (D-New York) has asked Paterson to sit this one out.
There's not running for re-election, on the one hand, and then there's resigning. Should Paterson depart office prematurely, his handpicked lieutenant governor would take over for the duration of his term. That person is Richard Ravitch, who comes from several generations of Jewish New Yorkers, who made their name as builders. He's 76, and is not a factor in terms of the upcoming election. But if the fallout from the Times story proves deathly not just to Paterson's re-election bid but to his current governorship, then the country's Jewiest state will—after a two-year absence, since Eliot Spitzer resigned—have a Jewish governor again.

|49ers giving other teams new things to think about
|Written by Admin
|Thursday, 04 October 2012 12:33
Roman doesn't like to call them trick plays, but the offensive coordinator's creative play selection last week sparked the 49ers to their most productive performance of the season during a 34-0 rout of the New York Jets.
Mixing in a collection of well-timed reverses and option plays and unveiling backup quarterback Colin Kaepernick as a new weapon, Roman kept the New York defense off balance as San Francisco set season highs in several offensive categories.
It also served notice that more new wrinkles could be coming as the 49ers look to expand their offense.

Why won't the Chiefs give Alex Smith more toys to play with?
MAY 10, 2014 2:05a ET
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Grading a draft after three rounds is a lot like writing a theater review at intermission. There's another act to go yet, more plot twists, more turns, maybe a musical number or two, and a grand finale. We won't know the big picture, the full picture, until Saturday night.
Although, this is interesting: The Jacksonville Jaguars have acquired four new offensive players since early Thursday evening.
Through 100 picks, the Kansas City Chiefs have added ... none.
"Well, actually, it's not -- it just kind of falls that way," Chiefs general manager John Dorsey said late Friday night. "Actually, we had three guys on the board there and you know, we kind of went ... I find it interesting, because after we took (cornerback) Phillip Gaines (at No. 87), all of a sudden, it was like, bang-bang-bang, and those were the next two guys that went."
The next two guys: Will Clarke, a defensive end out of West Virginia, to the Bengals at No. 88; and Chris Watt, a guard out of Notre Dame, to the Chargers at pick No. 89. If you're curious, the Colts took arguably the best big wideout still left on the board, Donte Moncrief out of Ole Miss, with pick No. 90.
No. 23? Defense. Dee Ford. Super-fast pass-rusher.
No. 87? Defense. Gaines. Super-fast corner.
Which is all well and good, really. Necessary, even -- this is a division, after all. where you're running into Peyton Manning and Philip Rivers four times a season, flinging the ball around, trying to Omaha you to death. And a 2014 schedule where you draw Tom Brady and Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick instead of Jeff Tuel, Case Keenum and Terrelle Pryor.
"You can't have enough good corners in this league," Dorsey said.
Amen, amen, amen.
Clearly, defensive coordinator Bob Sutton has a seat in the war room closer to Dorsey's earshot than his offensive counterpart Doug Pederson. Or maybe that's just the way the picks fell on their "board," as the vernacular goes.
Although this has got to be said, too: The Chiefs essentially spent their only two picks in slots 1-100 on two backups in 2014, potentially.
And Ford and Gaines, for all their pluses, seem like two guys who would've really, really, really helped this team win some big games ... four months ago.
Maybe that's the point. Maybe the theme from the first act of this little production is that Dorsey and coach Andy Reid either:
A) Don't want what happened at Lucas Oil Stadium in January -- and let's not go there again, for all our sakes -- to ever happen again under their watch, or;
B) They think the offense is largely fine as-is.
Although: With no Brandon Albert, no Geoff Schwartz, no Jon Asamoah on the front line anymore and a Dwayne Bowe who's one year older, that particular assertion is kind of ... well, if it's not a leap of some faith, it's at least a fairly healthy little skip.
While you like stacking up weapons to throw at the Broncos and Chargers, it's also fair to ask, in the same breath, why quarterback Alex Smith hasn't been given more of his own toys to play with. Trying to outscore Manning or Rivers in a shootout may be a fool's errand, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take a flyer on, say, Moncrief (6-2, 221), UCLA receiver Shaq Evans (6-1, 213) or South Carolina target Bruce Ellington (5-9, 197), either.
Maybe they know something we don't. Actually, we know they know several somethings. We haven't really seen what Travis Kelce can do at tight end, healthy. We haven't seen Eric Fisher at left tackle, healthy. We haven't seen Sanders Commings at all.
Commings or no Commings, Gaines -- on paper -- ticks a lot of the right boxes in the secondary, however he eventually fits. A 4.38 time in the 40-yard dash. Solid size (6-feet-ish). Good reach.
At Rice, he was targeted 40 times as a senior. Thirteen of those balls were caught. Thirteen more were either picked off (four) or batted away (nine). The numbers are there.
Although this is there, too: In college, Gaines went through two incidents -- one misdemeanor arrest, one suspension -- related to marijuana. Morally, you can debate the pros and cons of Mary Jane all you like. But this still is a professional workplace with a clear drug policy, with drug tests, and that's not the kind of merit badge you want to be wearing on the ol' sash when you walk in the door.
Plus, we had this nugget, from NFL.com's scouting report:
"Not equipped to handle man-to-man responsibility. Poor run supporter and tackler."
Doesn't sound like ideal safety material, at first blush.
"Whatever they tell me to do, I'll do," Gaines said. "It (makes) no difference to me."
He should be fine, long-term. Actually, the real insult-to-injury part of the night came in the second round, with pick No. 56, one of the two the Chiefs gave up to get Smith last spring.
The 49ers went out and flipped it to, of all teams, the Broncos -- who then turned around and grabbed wideout Cody Latimer out of Indiana, a 6-foot-2 target who was lodged deep in the hearts of Kansas City faithful.
That John Elway doesn't waste a chance to turn the screw, does he?
"I still think there are a few there to be had," Dorsey said of the receivers on the board.
There better be. Otherwise, this is one particular theater that's going to get awfully restless, awfully quick.

Your home was very clean and cozy. And what I nice most is we could have a quiet day at the lake, or head out and do one of the many activities around you. Hiking was the best,,,,the views were amazing. Thanks again!
We had family travel from Texas to meet us in this winter wonderland! They had never played in the snow and they had the best weekend! The house was perfect for two families with kids. There was room for everyone and playroom loft could not have been better. The kids hung out and loved their own "space". The owners were helpful from beginning to end (which lasted a little longer because my son left his nintendo ds. Lucinda FOUND IT after much searching and mailed back to us. He was thrilled) . The house was more than comfortable ,the neighborhood was perfect and it's close to everything from restaurants to great skiing. Thanks for the wonderful vacation!
We just loved staying at this house and the owners were so very nice. The location was great...close to restaurants and activities for the family. Our family spent one day at Split Rock Water park and another horse back riding. The lake was right down the road with a snack bar, grills for barbecuing, and a playground for the kids. The house was perfect and was comfy. We especially loved having dinner on the outside porch. We really had a great time. See you again next year!!
Thanks Lucinda for all your help. We had a great weekend. Really liked the location to attractions and restaurants. The house was very clean and comfortable for the gang. Would definitely recommend to friends and family. See you next year!
Thanks so much for accommodating our family. Your house was really clean and comfortable. We loved how close you were to the ski resorts and good restaurants. One of the perks in your house was the loft area with games and foosball table. The kids were up there every night! We will back again next year!
Hi Lucinda
We had a great time at your house. It was very comfortable and super clean. We also liked how close your house was to the ski resorts. We were able to come home for lunch each day, then head back to the mountain. Thanks again for sharing your house!
Had a great time at your cozy Pocono house. Amenities were great and we loved sitting by the fire every night. We cooked one night and grilled the other.

New SATC Movie Spot — And SATC Man Match-Up Game
Like us on Facebook
Did you catch the TV spot for the Sex and the City movie that aired during Gossip Girl last night? Well, now you can check it out after the jump. There's more of the brassy theme music, some squealing amongst the ladies and euphemistic talk of "crayons" and "coloring," among other cute stuff.
As I was perusing the movie's website last night I came across the little online quiz in which you can find out who your manly SATC match would be. And yup, I got Harry. He's not the sexiest of the bunch but he sure is loyal and good. Who's yours? Click here, then go to "About the Movie" and the "Match Your Man" option will appear.

if both guys come in shape and healthy without injuries or being sick this could be a war for the ages.
According to MMAWeekly, Randy "The Natural" Couture has agreed to take on Antonio Rodrigo Nogueria at UFC 101 sometime in August.
According to multiple sources from Couture's camp, he has agreed to face Nogueira at the yet-unannounced UFC 101 sometime in August. The event may take place in Portland, Ore.
The UFC is now awaiting a response from Nogueira's camp.
Couture has been rumored to be fighting at UFC 99 in Cologne, Germany, but filming of Sylvester Stallone's "The Expendables" movie will prevent him from training for the June 13th fight date.
For the latest on UFC 101, check out our UFC Rumors section.
TG "Tim"
if both guys come in shape and healthy without injuries or being sick this could be a war for the ages.
I have been waiting to see this fight i hope Nog agress to it which he should.
nog will no dout, i still want to see this fight i hope they are both in great shape like dane said this really could be a great fight its a shame its not for a title.
i think NOG will win but I would love to see Randy win.. great fight
Yeah, I agree with all 3 of you. This will be highly entertaining.
i think randy's got the standup and the wrestling but nog could pull out a sub. i think randys better at the stand up just look at how they both looked on the feet against sylvia. randy put on a boxing clinic while nog got his head beat off.
I can't wait for this. Randy is very hard to submit, i see randy keeping this against the cage and controlling the whole fight.
Thats a good point TR. I think he will do that too. Keep it standing and do some dirty boxing. But I think Couture will eventually take it to the ground and end up in Nog's guard for some ground n pound. I can't wait to see how Randy deals with Nog's guard.
ooooohhhhh yeh i have been waiting for this fight. these 2 both are coming off disapointing losses. so both of them need a win. i think couture will win. if nog wins it will be by submission.

You're not an EMT.
This may seem like it's coming from left field, and it kind of is. One of the perks of having a website is that I get to see all the terms people type into search engines to find the site. Until the Hangover movie I was the #1 google result for "strippers and cocaine." True Story.
However a google search today troubled me a touch. Especially since they hit me 6 times with it:
"if im an off duty emt and ive been drinking" (sp)
Well, Tiger, I think you might be a few into your day already so if you were the one doing this search put the drink down and let's have a chat.
Your search cut off a bit early didn't it? Was there something else there like "should I order cialis online help people?" or "will I get fired?" or "do I have to use apostrophes?"
Here's the short answer to all your possible questions:
No. Except the apostrophes part.
As soon as you take a drink, smoke, snort, shoot, heck even if you pop an ambien or a flexoril you're not an EMT, you're just you. While I have been known to break that rule, it was because one of my close friends had been badly cut in a fight. I didn't go running into a situation inebriated simply because I just got signed off on splinting.
Take off the star off duty and have a responsible time doing what it is you do, but remember that anything you do while using that title or wearing that star reflects not only on you but the tens of thousands of us who know the difference between Professionalism and irresponsibility.
"if im an off duty emt and ive been drinking" yields far more relevant discussions on this topic and I hope you read them.

Green issues on the big screen
From the exploitation of Kenyan rose farmers to a Slovenian man fighting against pollution, this year's line-up proves there's more than enough film fodder for the eco-conscious among us.
With the term 'green' perhaps the only colour that's managed to successfully re-brand itself as a lifestyle in recent history, terms like organic, carbon footprint and bio-gas have firmly planted themselves into our vocabulary.
For anyone still needing an inspirational nudge in a greener direction though, John Maringouin's Big River Man is an ideal place to start.
With the meddlesome, hands on approach of Jamie Oliver and the death-defying tactics of Bear Grylls, Big River Man follows the real-life story of Slovenian Martin Strel who has become devoted to swimming the world's biggest rivers in a bid to highlight the damage caused by pollution.
As a 53-year-old heavy drinker, Strel's light-hearted bid to swim the Amazon is as eccentric as it is heroic whilst setting a new world record for the longest and most perilous swim.
With summer finally upon us, freshly cut flowers don't instantly spring to mind as a mechanism for oppression, let alone a catalyst for a human rights debate.
Tom Van Zantvoort's documentary a Blooming Business attempts to open up one such discussion with a look into the lives of Kenyan flower farmers who work relentlessly to meet unquenchable global demand.
As a handful of courageous workers come forward to share their experiences; talk of toxic chemicals, poor working conditions and exploitative wages gradually reveals the thornier truth lurking beneath the guise of the supermarket rose.

It's amazing what a single game can do isn't it?
That's how I ended my last piece after the only good moment of the 2011 Boston Red Sox season so far. It's also amazing how true that statement is.
Two games after I declared the shipped righted and all things right with the world, the Red Sox are now 2-9 and off to the worst start in franchise history.
How did this happen? Two weeks ago I was joking about going 162-0 and during the offseason I argued they were the best team in baseball and a World Series favorite. Every analyst and talking head had them in the payoffs, many had them winning it all. There is no explanation for why they are the worst team in Major League Baseball right now.
The question becomes who is to blame for all this? Well lets take a look at the options.
Under performing bats
The two big offseason additions: Carl Crawford and Adrian Gonzalez have struggled mightily early in the season. You can cut them a little slack as they are adjusting to a new location, new teammates and new pressures but this is a bit much.
It's not just new players struggling. Kevin Youkilis, Marco Scutaro and Jacoby Elisbury have been non-factors. While we can ignore Scutaro for the most part, Elisbury and Youkilis are suppose to be mainstays at the top of this line-up and neither one of them is hitting over .200.
They have also lacked the timely hit. Every game they leave more and more runners in scoring position.
Starting rotation
Just god awful. The worst team ERA in all of Major League Baseball. They have been handcuffed by the no show offense at times that doesn't justify how bad the rotation has been. Josh Beckett has one great start and John Lester has been decent but the rest of the arms have looked ugly. There is no confidence in anyone of them right now but will all the money locked up in them, they aren't going anywhere right now.
Line up
One of the biggest offseason questions was what would this line up look like day-to-day. Apparently no one knows because the Sox have not used the same one twice so far this season.
The struggles at the top of the line-up with Craford and Elisbury have failed to set the table for the big bobbers in the middle, which has put added pressure on the bottoms of the line-up.
Anytime there is a glaring problem that can't be solved by moving a player, the coaching staff becomes a likely scape goat.
Curt Young is new to the Sox staff this year as the pitching coach. The staff has been terrible so Young is a possible out, but I don't see him going anywhere.
Dave Magadan, the hitting coach, is the most likely scape goat here. The offense as I already pointed out is horrible and thats Magadan's domain. I do think it will be a cop out if they let him go as these are All-Star hitters he is dealing with. Its not hs job to make them hit. They should already be able to do that. Its his job to help them study and get through slumps.
Terry Francona has earned a free pass from criticism and with good reason, he owns two World Series rings. But one thing he has never done is be a master motivator. This team needs a fire lit under their ass and I'm not sure Francona can do that. Will he be great at keeping the pressure off and keeping the locker room calm, yes. Will he get them fired up and hungry, I don't know.
Front office
Red Sox GM Theo Epstien broght in some major players this offseason and decided to let some go. The decision of Crawford instead of Victor Martinez will be debated until Crowford starts performing to his contract. He locked up the top four spots in the rotation for the next few years, but is it solid pitchers? Was the Gonzalez trade a good idea? How good is this bullpen and the guys he brought in for it?
These will all be picked apart until we start getting answers.
Another big issue is whether or not the ownership group cares about the Red Sox now or are they too concerned with their English soccer team Liverpool. In the middle of these struggles they announced a partnership with Lebron James (yeah that one) for ownership. Why talk about that now. I'm sure they still care but it seems like the Red Sox are an afterthought.
A big one that doesn't get talked about much. As I've written before the way local media, especially the Boston Herald, talked about this team before the season started was horrendous. Full front page spread proclaiming them the Greatest Team Ever and NESN, the Red Sox station, compared them to the 1927 New York Yankees.
The Rose colored glasses were firmly planted on our faces and there was little talk of all the potential pitfalls and questions marks this team had. They were hyped to an inhuman level and when they are struggling it become an even greater shock because of it.
Regardless of whose to blame, I believe the Sox will bounce back and be a force once they can put everything together.

VIENNA, Austria, September 25 /PRNewswire/ -- The successful progress of several vaccine programmes run by AFFiRiS GmbH has prompted investor MIG AG to increase its investment in the company. It has set up two new funds - MIG 5 and MIG 7 - to give private investors in Germany and Austria the opportunity to invest in this promising biotech company. The company decided to take this step for two reasons. First, to ensure the early coverage of future capital demand for the continued successful development of vaccines against Alzheimer's disease and atherosclerosis and, second, the tremendous potential that the proprietary AFFITOME platform technology offers the global pharmaceutical market.
The investment group MIG-Fonds announced today that it has increased its investment in AFFiRiS by a further Euro 3 million. As a result, private investors now have another chance to share in the economic success of the biotech company via the MIG Fonds 5 and 7. This news is particularly relevant for private investors in Germany, who have immediate access to MIG 7. This provides investors with the opportunity to make a highly promising investment before the modified capital gains tax comes into force in Germany. Therefore, after a year's holding period, any later profits made from this investment will be tax free.
AFFiRiS will contribute to the success of these funds through its
proprietary AFFITOME technology, which is based on the process of molecular
mimicry. This technology enables the development of customized vaccines
known as AFFITOPE. Dr. Walter Schmidt, co-founder and company CEO, explains
the key to the company's AFFiRiS vaccine strategy: "Our patented AFFITOME
technology enables scientists to create both molecules with very specific
binding characteristics and molecules that differ in structure but exhibit
identical binding characteristics. We are currently using these strengths
in the development of vaccines against Alzheimer's disease. In the future,

One of 14 photographs from the portfolio titled "Cowboys & Girlfriends."
Richard Prince is a postmodern pioneer of appropriation art, building upon the strategies of Duchamp and Warhol among others. His trademark technique of re-photographing readymade imagery from popular culture reveals the absurdity or unreality of the original image and refutes the notions of originality and authorship. In the 'Cowboys and Gilrfriends' portfolio, (a composite or 'gang' of images), Prince appropriates images from the iconic Marlboro cigarette advertising campaign and images of women who had placed ads in biker magazines. By removing the ad copy and emphasizing the grainy texture of the original images, Prince peels back the layers of associations constructed by the ad execs in the cowboy images (masculinity, independence, the freedom of the American Frontier) and exposes the fictive, representational nature of the pictures, and in the case of the women's self-portraits (femininity and sexual freedom and availability), offers a fascinating commentary on curious subcultural facets of male-female engagement and disengagement, through self-promotion, self-representation, and desire. His work shows that commercialization, has, in a sense, replaced the simulated with the simulation, the advertised with the advertisement, the Marlboro with the Marlboro man. The present work is Girlfriend #7, plate 12 (out of an original group of 14), of the series of biker chicks slung across Harleys displaying their charms in pursuit of erotic opportunity. In juxtaposing these disparate subcultures, Prince sheds light on the highly codified clichés that organize society.

Las tontas no van al cielo (Spanish pronunciation: [las ˈtontaz no ˈβan al ˈsjelo], Dumb Girls Don't Go to Heaven or as an English saying, Bimbos Don't Go to Heaven) is an original Mexican telenovela that began airing on Mexico's Canal de las Estrellas, beginning 11 February 2008. The novela is a production of Rosy Ocampo and starring Jacqueline Bracamontes, Jaime Camil, and Valentino Lanús.
Cándida "Candy" Morales Alcalde is a beautiful young girl filled with dreams and hopes for her future. At her 15th birthday party she meets the man of her dreams - Patricio Molina Lizárraga, who became later her husband. On the day of their wedding, Candy finds out that Patricio cheated on her with her sister, Alicia. Angry and hurt, she leaves him and goes to Guadalajara with her uncle, Manuel. She decides to fake her death to her family and Patricio to start a new life. Later she realizes that she is pregnant with Patricio's child. After she finds out, her newborn son is what gives her hope for the future, and he becomes the reason she lives.
Meanwhile, Santiago López Carmona, a plastic surgeon, tries to build a family with his career-driven wife, Paulina. She leaves him with their daughter, Rocio, and he becomes highly disappointed in love. Therefore, he begins to sleep with many different women without making any emotional connection with them. When he meets Candy, he is determined to romance her in order to take her to bed, but he quickly discovers how special Candy really is and falls in love with her.
Though they first dislike each other, as time passes, Candy takes a liking to Santiago and attempts to have a relationship with him. However, this becomes difficult when their children, and their exes do everything in their power to prevent their happiness.

When the telenovela was presented to the media, local press revealed that Jalisco's Governor, Emilio González Márquez, invested 38 million Mexican pesos (3.5 million dollars) in order to help with the production of this telenovela, and also gave Televisa all facilities to develop the telenovela in Guadalajara and other Jalisco towns (Tlaquepaque and Chapala, amongst others). The main reason was "Jalisco´s promotion".
The telenovela has shown various scenes taking place in Guadalajara and Jalisco, including the landscapes of Guadalajara and cameos of places like Guadalajara's Cathedral, the Arcos del Milenio and Lake Chapala.
The telenovela also shows stamps from Mexico City, Acapulco and Las Vegas.
In the later episodes of the telenovela, very little footage of Guadalajara was shown. Indeed, in a chapter where Candy and Santiago went to see a concert of French singer Alizée, they went to see her performance in Mexico City's Auditorio Nacional instead of Guadalajara´s Auditorio Telmex.
