This looks great! This will work wonders for me as names are nearly always a challenge for me to come up with.
Thanks again.
Thanks again Red for sharing.

I used to cut high school and go there. part of my photo education was from actually seeing all the strands; westons; muyerbridge; et al that was hanging on the walls. one could actually stand there and take the time to soak it in. i'm afraid that is no longer the case. the sheer amount of people cruising through the galleries makes it virtually impossible.
do check out the soho photo gallery. kind of a favorite of mine and the tribeca neighborhood on a sunday morning is wonderful. you can cruise up into soho and get an idea of what those places were like long ago. for brunch try the cupping room in soho. real pancakes with vt. maple syrup.....
I will look up both MMA and MOMA and see what's there before I make up my mind. For the right pictures I would brave the crowds.
I looked up the galleries you listed it looks like the Soho gallery is on vacation while we're there.

32 CFR 635.37 - Statistical reporting requirements.
prev | next
(a) DOD policies on victim witness assistance require reporting of statistics on the number of individuals who are notified of their rights. The DA Form 3975 provides for the collection of statistical information.
(b) The COPS system supports automated reporting of statistics. HQDA, Office of the Provost Marshal General (DAPM-PD-LE) as the program manager may require periodic reports to meet unique requests for information.
(c) It is possible that a victim or witness may initially decline a DD Form 2701. As the case progresses, the individual may request information. If a case is still open in the Provost Marshal Office/Directorate of Emergency Services, the Provost Marshal/Director of Emergency Services victim witness coordinator shall provide the DA Form 2701 to the individual and update the records. Once the case is referred to the staff judge advocate or law enforcement activity ceases, COPS will not be updated without prior coordination with the installation Staff Judge Advocate office.

I read a book about a year ago from a recommendation here. A friend of mine could benefit from reading it but do you think I could remember the name? No. Why? Maybe it's a sleep issue or mommy brain?
Anyhow, it's about book about how motherhood has changed over the years and how our generation expects it to be easier than the past but it's not. We add more stuff even though we have all these machines helping us. How we have no community like past mothers have etc.
I don't think it's a PPD book but maybe self-help.
Thanks for any help!!
I spent my life negotiating for a living, and now my 2 and 4 year old are closing the deals. I now am a firm believer in Karma!

Release Date:
December 27, 2011
Date Published:
December 27, 2011
One of the most original thinkers on the role of religion in the modern world—author of such acclaimed books as A History of God, Islam, and Buddha—now gives us an impassioned and practical book that can help us make the world a more compassionate place.
Karen Armstrong believes that while compassion is intrinsic in all human beings, each of us needs to work diligently to cultivate and expand our capacity for compassion. Here, in this straightforward, thoughtful, and thought-provoking book, she sets out a program that can lead us toward a more compassionate life.
The twelve steps Armstrong suggests begin with "Learn About Compassion" and close with "Love Your Enemies." In between, she takes up "compassion for yourself," mindfulness, suffering, sympathetic joy, the limits of our knowledge of others, and "concern for everybody." She suggests concrete ways of enhancing our compassion and putting it into action in our everyday lives, and provides, as well, a reading list to encourage us to "hear one another's narratives." Throughout, Armstrong makes clear that a compassionate life is not a matter of only heart or mind but a deliberate and often life-altering commingling of the two.
From the Hardcover edition.
Karen Armstrong has contributed widely and deeply to the religious canon, with scholarly yet readable books that describe all the world's great spiritual philosophies. In this 2010 book, she strays from her usual modus operandi by presenting something akin to a self-help or advice book, outlining the steps necessary to lead a more caring, mindful, and empathic life. Moreover, she explains how the world and the individual will benefit from such a program.

Special Correspondent
CHANDIGARH: The "crisis'' triggred by the "`resignation'' of the Congress MLA from Ambala Cantonment, D.K.Bansal, seems to have blown over following intervention by Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda's "trouble-shooter'' and Cabinet colleague, Venod Sharma.
Mr. Sharma, who is also the State Power and PWD Minister, represents the adjoining Ambala City constituency. Mr. Sharma was specially deputed by Mr. Hooda to have a heart-to-heart interaction with Mr. Bansal in Ambala to resolve his grievances relating to the "failure to initiate developmental activities'' in the predominantly urban constituency. The MLA has also been demanding withdrawal of the condition to produce a no-objection certificate before transfer of land. According to highly-placed sources, Mr. Sharma made it clear to the MLA that he should withdraw his "resignation faxed to Mr. Hooda on Saturday'' unconditionally before his "grievances'' could be amicably sorted out at the level of the Chief Minister himself.
Interestingly, Mr. Hooda spoke to Mr. Bansal telephonically and called him over for a meeting on June 13. Mr. Bansal later told media persons in the presence of Mr. Sharma and the Chief Minister's Media Adviser, Sunder Pal Singh, that he had "withdrawn'' his resignation unconditionally as he had been assured that the "grievances `' facing the constituency would be resolved at the earliest. He also made it clear that he had full faith in Mr. Hooda under whose leadership the State was progressing rapidly.

Status Update Details IDF Plan
It's complicated for kicked-out Israeli soldier
Ugh, remember that time you had told your friend, who you're like friends with or whatever but didn't feel like dealing with, that you were just going to stay in for the night, but then you went out and the next day someone posted a picture of you on Facebook, and you were busted? Well, this story out of Israel is kind of like that. Except replace "picture at a bar" with "status update detailing a military operation against Palestinians in a village near Ramallah"! And replace "busted" with "kicked out of your IDF unit"!
Yes, a soldier in the Israel Defense Force redefined the meaning of Too Much Information last month when he logged on to Facebook and posted, "On Wednesday we'll clean out [the village of] Kattannah, and on Thursday, God willing, we'll be home." He also provided the name of his unit, and the exact location and time of where the operation was slated to take place.
Several of the soldier's Facebook friends, shocked by his indiscretion, reported him to the army's Division of Information Security. Almost immediately, the operation was called off and the soldier tried and ejected. An unfriending for the history books.

Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor Reviews - 2010 BMW 335i
Standard Motor Products | TPM141
I purchaced this item for my 2010 BMW 335i because after riding on a flat tire for around 30 miles, the car's TPMS errored, stating that the TPMS had malfunctioned. I assumed that the TPMS Sensor was to blame, so I ordered one from Parts Geek. I took this part to the dealer and they installed it, along with two new tires, in the wheel that had the flat. I put a few hundred miles on the car since and have no issues so far.

US mortgage finance head: shift risk from Treasury
"It's a tough situation because they get pressure from both sides on that," Lea said.
The FHFA's most pressing tasks include creating a framework allowing more borrowers who are underwater on their mortgages to refinance at rates now at levels not seen in decades. Few people are qualifying to refinance a home because they don't have the equity needed to refinance.
FHFA is considering expanding its Home Affordable Refinance Program to allow some borrowers whose mortgages are held by Fannie and Freddie to refinance into lower-rate loans even if they owe greater than 125 percent more than their home is worth, DeMarco said
The second key current priority is figuring out how Fannie and Freddie can resell thousands of government-owned foreclosures to improve returns to taxpayers and help boost falling home prices. A federal "request for information" seeking ideas closed last week resulted in nearly 4,000 proposals, many tailored to local economic conditions around the country. One of the ideas FHFA is considering is allowing previous homeowners to rent out the homes or for current renters to lease to own.

From a young age I was interested in being an artist and/or performer. I enjoy all types of artistic creation and dabble with writing, photography, painting, and clothing design. At the age of twelve, I began playing the guitar and 38 years later, I feel I am still learning to play the instrument. My musical style can best be described as a blend of Big Band, Country, and Rock. However, visitors to my performances, quite often tell me that I am difficult to categorize. Most recently, I was told that I am "way out side the box" and "refreshingly unique". I make no conscious effort to be different or to produce commercially acceptable material. I am just doing what I feel.

General Vijay Kumar Singh, the Chief of the Army Staff, who was recently in a controversy over his date of birth, speaks to Vidya Subrahmaniam on how "the drama" played out, the state of the Army, the Chinese threat and the Maoist problem.
After such a glorious innings in the Army, why do you have to make such a controversial exit?
I never got into any controversy. If you are talking about the age issue — I don't see it as a controversy at all — it should have ended when it came up first in 2006 because the rules are very clear. When you enter government service, it is the matriculation certificate that counts and there my birth year is 1951. The Army's Adjutant-General's branch, which keeps records, also shows the year as 1951. So where was the controversy? This is a manufactured controversy, created by people with all kinds of interests.
What kinds of interests and lobbies?
All kinds of interests are involved. Suddenly there was a blitz in the media and papers began to float around. Where did they come from? When you put your foot down and insist you want to institute good practices in the system, when you don't allow people to take the organisation for a ride, some people are going to be sidelined. This is one method of hitting back.
There is the Adarsh lobby, there are various lobbies of equipment dealers who realised we were not going to accept bad quality equipment.
You said in an interview that a lot of money was paid to orchestrate the controversy.
Yes, that is absolutely true. Some people went to the extent of fabricating a birth certificate. A lot of money exchanged hands for this.
Are some of these people serving in the Army?
Some are serving, some have retired. FIRs have been filed against some of these people. You will see in the coming months that things will slowly unravel. As time passes, we will know who the sutradhar of this drama is. I will come to know and so will you.
The Supreme Court observed that you twice accepted your year of birth — in 2008 and 2009 — as 1950. And if you allowed a senior to pressure you into committing a wrong, could the country have been safe in your hands?
When an issue comes up, and you are told this is the date we are going to mention, so please accept for now and we will sort it out later because right now the file has to go through, what do you do? At that level, could I have started a fight? No. So I said, you have given me your word, and here is my acceptance — it was a conditional acceptance.
But this assurance was not in writing, right?
When your superior, on whose orders you go to war, gives you an assurance, what are you supposed to do? Do you say, sorry, I don't believe you? Civilian life is different. In the Army you can be hauled up for disobedience. I had no choice.
When the government was unyielding on your year of birth, why did you not let the matter be? After all, you only had a year left?
This was never about my tenure. It was about principles. It is about establishing that the most authoritative document on date of birth is the matriculation certificate. My counsel told the Supreme Court that if the Government accepted 1951 as my year of birth, I'd quit immediately. What if it was my name that was changed? Should I have accepted it?
The accusation against you is that you accepted the wrong date of birth in order to use your seniority to get a promotion and then insisted you were a year younger so you could retire later.
That is absolutely wrong. In the Army promotions are not decided on the basis of the DoB. In our time we had different boards for different ranks – Lt. Colonel to Colonel, Colonel to Brigadier, Brigadier to Major General and so on. Your promotions are decided after you have been selected by the board and this is purely on merit. And then your seniority counts, which is already fixed at the time you pass out of the Indian Military Academy. DoB comes in only when you are due to become a core commander and here what is important is that you have a residual service of three years. When you become an Army commander, you need to have a residual service of two years. So where was my advantage? By agreeing to 1950, I was actually putting myself at a disadvantage.
What was the state of the Army when you took charge? And what have you achieved as you retire?
It saddens me that the only thing for which I get mentioned is the age controversy. When I took charge I had a vision, I had an agenda. There were problems in the internal health of the Army. We needed to restore the value system. The main question was how to transform the Army. We wanted it to be more lethal, more agile and a networked force capable of meeting all challenges. The other part was modernisation, which had a lot fo lacunae. Unfortunately, there was a lot of emphasis on the status quo. We have grown up from the Second World War in a particular manner, and we needed to change and reorient ourselves. Much of all this came out in a study which looked at the Army in terms of its operation, logistics and equipment available. We did sub-studies on all this and found the Army needed to change. I'm rather proud to say that we have done a great amount of work on the transformation. And I am sure my successor will carry on with the work.
The China threat?
China is a neighbour that has not yet settled its borders. It has made claims on certain parts of our territory and it has also done a great deal of infrastructure development in Tibet. We need to be prepared till such time as the borders remain unsettled.
How does it help China to go to war? And aren't there other ways to fight?
The space for conflict remains. After all, wars are an extension of politics. It is the settlement of an issue after political dialogue has failed and you resort to force to bring dialogue back to its place. I strongly believe that a fit army is like an insurance policy – you hope you won't need to use the policy but in case you do it should give the best possible cover.
We also did a lot of work for the jawans. The first thing we did was: In service I wanted a jawan to feel that he is an equal in every respect. We brought the quality and quantity of rations for jawans and officers to the same level. We did the same thing for clothing and also strongly pushed for accommodation upgrades. We gave an impetus to education so that when a jawan reitred he becomes capable of lateral induction into the para military forces and the armed police. After 15 years of service, a jawan is fit enough; if he is given lateral entry he'll feel valued.
It is believed you were resistant to the idea of sending the Army to fight the Maoists. Did Home Minister P. Chidambaram approach you on this?
The Maoist problem has become so large because we have allowed it to grow. It has to be fought politically, socially and in terms of the type of development we bring to impoverished areas. Where does the Army come into it? The Army should not fight its own people. We don't see the Maoists as a secessionist movement. That is why we have not gone into fight them. When Mr. Chidambaram asked me, I told him exactly this.

Singapore - FIFA presidential candidate Mohamed Bin Hammam on Monday vowed to "restore pride" in football's world governing body as fresh corruption claims swirled before next month's leadership vote.
"Time for a fresh approach," Asia's football chief tweeted in capital letters, before adding: "Time to restore pride in FIFA" just a minute later.
FIFA has been beset by allegations of corruption in the run-up to the June 1 election, when Bin Hammam will challenge former ally Sepp Blatter, who is seeking a fourth and final four-year term.
On Sunday, the BBC's Panorama investigative programme aired a report claiming FIFA is trying to block the release of a document that reveals the identity of two officials forced to repay bribes.
The settlement relates to alleged bribes paid to senior FIFA officials in the 1990s by sports marketing company International Sports and Leisure (ISL), Panorama reported.
Earlier this month Britain's Lord David Triesman, chairman of the country's defeated bid to host the 2018 World Cup, told a parliamentary inquiry that senior FIFA officials demanded cash and honours in return for their votes.
While Blatter dismissed British claims as a case of sour grapes after their failed Soccer World Cup bid, Qatar's Bin Hammam said FIFA had been "sullied beyond compare" under the Swiss.
However, the Asian Football Confederation president has also been forced to deny allegations aired in the British parliamentary inquiry that his home country paid large bribes to secure hosting rights for the 2022 World Cup.

Designers rethink jet aircraft in the quest for shorter take-offs
GTRI researchers (from left) Graham Blaylock, Nicholas Moore and Robert Englar assemble a test aircraft's fuselage onto the blown wing assembly, while also measuring the height of the blowing jet exit slot. (Photo: Gary Meek)
This computer-generated graphic shows a model of the cruise-efficient, short take-off and landing (CESTOL) aircraft design that GTRI researchers are investigating (Image: California Polytechnic State University)
Article Summary
What's wrong with this picture? If you said the engines are upside down, you'd be wrong. The odd engine placement is part of a cruise-efficient, short take-off and landing (CESTOL) aircraft concept from the Georgia Tech Research Institute which also sees mechanical wing-flaps replaced by high-speed blasts of air to generate extra lift. It's hoped that the development of such craft will make more airports available to fixed-wing jet aircraft by enabling take off and landing at steep angles on short runways, as well as reducing engine noise.

I am a cultural anthropologist whose research involves studying how young Maya men from highland Guatemala are adapting to changing economic conditions in their country while attempting to maintain strong connections to the religious and cultural traditions of their rural homelands. I've just completed a book with Dr. Garrett Cook on a project studying the famous "Monkeys Dance" of Momostenango and we have recently published two articles with Dr. Cook on the dance. I have also published a book on Maya child laborers who shine shoes and sell merchandise in the streets of Guatemala City. Dr. Cook and I co-lead a summer field school on ethnographic methods in Guatemala, and I teach a variety of courses at Baylor that focus on how indigenous groups are adapting to economic globalization. I have also recently begun research on material culture and the construction of coloniality in Antigua, Guatemala, and have developed a new course on ethnographic perspectives on material culture "The Things We Carry: What your iPhone says about you and about the U.S." I am a member of the steering committee of the Guatemala Scholars Network, and have previously held positions on the Board of the Society for the Anthropology of Work. My wife Oriel Jane and I have three kids, two dogs, and multiple fish and small rodents. I am a board member of my Shul, Congregation Agudath Jacob, and am active in Cub Scouts, our neighborhood association, and am the proud founder and director of the Anthropology Department Film Series.

Born: May 13, 1912 | Died: March 20, 1988
Ian Ernest Gilmore Green (or Gilmore Ian Rodrigo Green) was born May 13, 1912, in Toronto, Canada, the son of Margaret Julia MacChonechy and a father he never knew. He took the name of his stepfather, and thus became Gil Evans. His stepfather was a miner, whereas his mother took care of the children of rich families, and prepared meals for campsites. Moving wherever work would take them, they went from one North-American mining site to the next, including Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and such Northwestern U.S. states as Idaho, Montana, and Washington. Their child was put in boarding houses, moving from one family to the next, until they finally settled permanently in California, around 1922. Gil went to school in Berkeley, and there, his real musical training began. The father of one of his friends was a jazz fanatic and initiated him to this music. In 1927, he took the two teenagers to see Duke Ellington at the Orpheum theater in San Francisco....

Haas keeps his winning streak alive
"This golf course and even Aronimink, too, they're ball-striker golf courses," Woods said. "You have to hit your ball well. You look at our list of champions, they've all been pretty good ball-strikers. You just can't fake it around this golf course. It's too big and too demanding."
Haas played big and he answered every challenge, including his own demons.
He had enough scars this year, such as Riviera and the Memorial, that he never got too excited even when he began to pull away. He knew there was trouble around every corner at Congressional, and he only had to look back one day to realize that. His scorecard on Saturday was a mess - nine birdies but only five pars, along with a triple bogey on the 11th hole, the toughest on the golf course.
He rolled in birdie putts from about the 10-foot range on the eighth, ninth and 10th holes to build a two-shot lead, and then stepped to the 11th tee looking for redemption, or at least a par. What gave him as much satisfaction as any birdie was a tee shot in the fairway, a 5-iron to the green and two putts.
"I told myself, `Great par, but it's not over yet,'" Haas said. "You can't breathe a sigh of relief yet. You've got to keep hitting good shots. I was able to hit a few nice ones coming in."
He added a pair of birdies and Castro, who matched him shot-for-shot for much of the day, couldn't stay with him. Castro, part of a four-way tie for the lead going into the final round, closed with a 69 for his best finish on tour.
"He didn't make any mistakes, and the birdies on 9 and 10 were big," Castro said after his 69.
The other leaders fell away. Andres Romero had a double bogey on the fourth hole and shot 75. James Driscoll didn't make a birdie in his round of 74.
Jordan Spieth, the 19-year-old from Texas who needs a win to become a PGA Tour member and be eligible for the FedEx Cup playoffs, started his day by holing out from a fairway bunker for eagle and chipping in for birdie to tie for the lead. He dropped a shot at No. 11 - the hardest hole at Congressional - about the time Haas was on his critical run of birdies. Spieth had a 69 and finished sixth, pushing his earnings for the year over $1.1 million.
D.H. Lee made nine birdies to match a tournament-best 64 and tied for third with Jason Kokrak, who briefly shared the lead on the front nine and had a 69. Stewart Cink closed with a 67 and finished alone in fifth, his best finish on the PGA Tour in stroke play since he won the British Open four years ago at Turnberry.
Haas made the long walk across a makeshift bridge and under the grandstands to the 18th green for the trophy presentation, high-fiving kids along the railing and raising his cap to thousands of fans who cheered as they saw him coming. His win was even sweeter when he compared it with all the times he failed.
"As many times as I've choked and hit bad shots and I've been nervous and it hasn't worked out - I was feeling all those things today - and to hit good, quality golf shots down the stretch is such a good feeling," Haas said. "I wish I could explain it. It's amazing."

Blackwater tapped foreigners on secret CIA program
At the time that Blackwater began working with the CIA on the death squad operation in 2004, the CIA had in place a long-standing policy mandating that senior officials leaving the agency could not go to work for private firms for a year after their departure. In 2007, Hayden toughened requirements for the entire agency, mandating an 18-month hold on security clearances for all departing employees who leave prior to retirement.
Scott Amey, general counsel for the Project on Government Oversight, a watchdog group in Washington, said "the revolving door is a very accepted practice" between government and private industry, but added that "to be able to bring people in from the CIA, there is a possibility that it gives you a competitive advantage in receiving awards from that agency."
When Panetta terminated the CIA's death squad program in June, he informed congressional intelligence committees about its existence in an emergency briefing.
The House Intelligence Committee is investigating whether the CIA broke the law by not quickly informing Congress about the secret program.

Bristol Farms Inc. is an upscale grocery store chain in California, United States. Founded in Los Angeles County, Bristol Farms operates fifteen stores, twelve in Southern California, and one in San Francisco. The fourteenth and fifteenth stores operate as Lazy Acres Market in Santa Barbara and Long Beach, respectively. After several changes in ownership over the years, the company is now privately owned.
Early history[edit]
Bristol Farms opened its first store in 1982, in Rolling Hills Estates, California, the company having been started by Irv Gronsky and Mike Burbank, who had worked together in the food industry for almost twenty years. Their vision was to combine the service and food quality of a corner grocer, butcher and baker with the theatre of Harrods in London.[citation needed] The first store was an overwhelming success.
The company added further stores in California. In June 1999, they acquired a famous landmark, Chalet Gourmet in Hollywood.
Owned by Albertsons[edit]
In 2004, Bristol Farms was purchased by Albertsons, Inc.
In October 2005, Santa Barbara-based Lazy Acres was purchased by Bristol Farms. Many believe that the independently owned single store Lazy Acres sold to Bristol Farms as a defensive move against Whole Foods' pending arrival into Santa Barbara. While this is Bristol Farms' first and only location in Santa Barbara, the 28,000-square-foot (2,600 m2) Lazy Acres store itself continues operating under its original format. No mention of the name Bristol Farms is noted on any signage and/or advertisements at or within Lazy Acres. The Long Beach Bristol Farms was converted into a second Lazy Acres in November, 2012.
In 2006, Bristol Farms opened its doors at the newly expanded Westfield San Francisco Centre in downtown San Francisco, becoming the first Bristol Farms in Northern California. The San Francisco site covers more than half the space of the Concourse Level in the lower level of the mall.
Three former Albertsons locations have been converted into Bristol Farms, one in the La Jolla section of the city of San Diego, California, the second location in Palm Desert, California which originally opened as Lucky, and the third location in the Westchester section of the city of Los Angeles, California.
Owned by SuperValu[edit]
On June 2, 2006, Bristol Farms' parent company, Albertsons, Inc., was purchased by investors led by Cerberus Capital Management and Supervalu, Inc., and upon closing of the transaction, Bristol Farms became a wholly owned subsidiary of SuperValu, Inc.
On November 12, 2008, Bristol Farms opened its seventeenth location. This 30,000-square-foot (2,800 m2) location, which unlike many of Bristol Farms current locations, was built new from the ground up. The store is located in the Bridgeport Marketplace mixed-use shopping center within the Bridgeport residential neighborhood in Santa Clarita, California. New features at this location are individual "shops" with full facades and themed props, a fresh juice and smoothie counter, a fresh sushi department with sushi made onsite every day, a coffee bar and an eat-in cafe. The wine area, with its four walls, wine racks and roof trellis, resembles a specialty wine boutique. Over 1,500 sq ft (140 m2). of hand-painted murals painted by studio artists at D L English Design depict picturesque scenes of the Santa Clarita Valley throughout the store.
Independent again[edit]
On October 29, 2010, SuperValu announced that it had sold the Bristol Farms chain to a new company formed by a private investment firm, Endeavour Capital, and the chain's management team.

Former Bristol Farms locations[edit]
The Mission Viejo store was closed in 2009, after 11 years operation. It had been plagued by being part of the Kaleidoscope Entertainment Center and faced declining year-to-year sales, partially brought about by the poor economic environment. The Kaleidoscope was criticized for its poor maintenance and unfavorable clientele. The Mission Viejo store officially closed on February 20, 2009.
The Valencia store was closed in 2009. Opened in late 2008, the store never generated heavy foot-traffic. The last scheduled day of operation was February 25, 2010.

American striker Fabrice-Jean 'Fafa' Picault has started well with Italian club Cagliari's youth side.
The 18-year old Haitian product of Miami has appeared in both of Cagliari's youth team matches this season, netting once (in the 3-1 loss to Empoli) and providing the match-winning assist after coming on as a sub against Torino.
Picault said he is happy with Cagliari and plans to further his development on the island of Sardinia.
"I'm a city boy, but I am able to enjoy the calmness of this island," he told Soccer365.
"The people are very passionate about life and soccer of course. The food is also very good in Sardinia and I have been able to enjoy a few 'home-sardo' dishes.
"I am here on a mission and to accomplish my dreams so everything else comes after."

Possible Photos of Second-Generation iPad Mini Rear Shell Surface
Mobiles Pie points to a forum thread [Google translation] at Chinese site WeiPhone sharing a number of photos of what may be the rear shell of the second-generation iPad mini.
The photos show a shell very similar to that of the current iPad mini, although from some angles it does appear to be slightly thicker. It is difficult to tell, however, whether the apparent increased thickness is a genuine design change needed to add a Retina display and accompanying battery improvements to the device or if it is simply a bit of an optical illusion due to the fact that the edges of the shell have not yet been chamfered as they are in the final product.
The photos also show a bright blue Apple logo and "iPad" text on the rear shell, but it is possible that this is simply part of the process used to create the mirrored logo and text as seen on the current product. Alternatively, it may be an effort to add additional color to the iPad mini as Apple did with the iPod touch last September and has been rumored to be using for an upcoming lower-cost iPhone.
Perhaps notably, the forum user who posted the images had posted back in December [Google translation] sharing images of what he said was the initial machining process for the iPad mini rear shell. Their legitimacy is, however, unconfirmed.
Update 12:24 PM: Nowhereelse.fr has taken a close look [Google translation] at the two photo sets from December and this week, noting in both sets the presence of boxes labeled "Catcher", which is indeed one of Apple's primary casing suppliers. The site believes, however, that the latest batch of photos is of the current iPad mini rather than a second-generation model.

Beginning in 2011, the U.S. federal government will offer health care providers financial incentives to spur the widespread adoption of electronic health records. As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, a total of $27 billion will be invested over the next decade, representing the first substantial commitment of federal funding to boost adoption of electronic health records across the U.S. health care system.
Launched in March, the Verizon Medical Data Exchange is a pivotal step toward the sharing of electronic medical records in the U.S. Available nationally, the exchange is designed to meet meaningful-use requirements established under the 2009 Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act. These requirements are a set of interoperability standards, implementation specifications and certification programs intended to certify electronic health record technology to enable clinicians to better coordinate patient care and reduce administrative costs.
"The Verizon Medical Data Exchange enables us to help our clients demonstrate meaningful use in several critical ways," said Robin Daigh, vice president, marketing and business development, MD-IT. "Meaningful use requires that hospitals and eligible physicians securely and electronically share health information. With minimal investment and a mandatory security audit, the exchange helps meet these requirements with the added benefit of maintaining existing provider work flows."

P&G may make changes as it faces challenges
The company also has been adding upscale businesses, acquiring the Miami-based grooming chain The Art of Shaving, which sells razors for $300 and up, and the Frederic Fekkai luxury hair care brand.
Deutsche Bank analyst Bill Schmitz Jr. wrote in a note to investors Tuesday that sales growth is "likely anemic over the next few quarters, short-term catalysts outside valuation are few, and ability to expand share and drive category growth with reinvestment remains uncertain."
Shares of the company that makes Gillette shavers, Tide detergent and Pantene shampoo fell 73 cents, or 1.4 percent, to close Tuesday at $52.41. They traded as high as $73.57 as recently as last September before falling as low as $43.93 earlier this year.

Grow up
- I've smoked marijuana since the 9th grade, I graduated high school with a 4.0 GPA & now I'm continuing to college pursuing a degree in chemical engineering. Saying that marijuana makes you lose the ability to concentrate is complete bull. I took my ACT when I was high and was able to concentrate much better and got a 32, as opposed to a 28 when I was not high. The key is moderation and making sure that you keep your priorities in check. Those people who say that weed ruined their lives, in my opinion, are just incapable of self control. There are literally thousands of people who smoke marijuana and are still perfectly capable of functioning in society.
- —Guest miko
i think its cool
- nothing wrong with pot its a natural growin herb it was here before the human race
- —Guest che
Why isn't this legal yet?
- Cannibis has many,many positive effects/uses with very few negatives, none of which are listed in this article. People need to stop listening to the lies and propaganda. This stuff is good. Do a little research. No, do a lot of research. Educate yourself and those around you to speak the truth about this magnificent plant.
- —Guest Legalize
Idiot Article Author
- This article says that they are unsure if marijuana smoking causes cancer because almost everyone who smokes marijuana will smoke cigs but at the end of the article it says that marijuana is more likely to give you cancer then cigs... lol
- —Guest Tall Guy
Pot does differant things to everyone
- Pot does not affect everyone in the same way it has both posotive and negative effects on everyone some more good than bad some more bad than good I have smoked pot for the past 5 years of my life and the longer ive smoked it the more I smoke and the quality of what I smoke has also increased but here recently I have developed such a bad habbit that I can't sleep at night without it and Its a constant anxiety rush dealing with shady drug dealers and the fact of running out of my sleeping supply the habit is also very expensive I tend to spend more money on pot then I spend on anything else I put pot befor the people I love because I'm so hi I tend to stay away from home because of it. I don't like going out to public evens as much anymore and try and avoid society in general pot has been my crutch threw life but also has givin me one. Yes pot is good and yes I love it but honestly I would b better off without ever having it . I believe it is only good in moderation it can take control
- —Guest Pot fanatic
This is bull
- I've been smoking majiuana for quite awhile now and not only am I more attentive the next day when I'm at school but since I've started my grades have risen tremendously to all A's and a B . So all this talk about weed is bad for you is nothing but bull
- —Guest Living
legalize it!
- More the reason to legalize it. Take the profit out of it so we don't have to support the drug cartels! And about the physical harm, stop kidding yourself you could smoke some leaves and it would be as harmful as marijuana. Your dumb if you think marijuana is not the most useful plant on earth !
- —Guest dope
- Smoking weed has affected me in many ways. I first started using MJ my junior yr in HS. At the time i was 16, doing very well in school, had plenty of friends, and in the eyes of others i had a very bright and promising future ahead of me. By my senior yr the number of people i hung out with started to shrink, i almost didnt graduate HS because instead of studing or doing homework i was smoking, and i never bothered to write essays or pass exams for college acceptance. Now im 18, unemployed, have priors for possesion of MJ (which i am actually innocent of but go figure), living at home with my parents, uneducated (dropped out of college after the first semester), and i am begining to become a total reclause. Not sure if i spelled that right, but basically i went from being a happy go lucky guy; to a very sad, shameful, and antisocial person. Ive tried to quit many times, but the longest ive gone without weed recently is about a week. I always seem to go back to smoking behind my parents back (which i am living off of mind you). So as much as i love weed i have to say i thinkg my life could have gone a better way if i was never introduced to it.
- —Guest Guest Fox
- Sorry but this article is bull. Marijuana does NOT cause cancer, in fact itès been shown to lower your risk of developing certain types of cancer by 1%. Don't just throw out things because you think they "must be" true when you don't even know if they are... I am truly disappointed, I've always loved this website but this article is just ridiculous. I've been smoking marijuana for 15 years and every year I get a bill of perfect health from my doctor. EXPLAIN THAT.
- —Guest Marita
- So, confusion. This study says it reduces brain function. I for one have experienced the oh so terrible side effects of this "nature provided" "plant" and can say personally that it does nothing but help. I for one have personally used this item and will continue to do so. In moderation understand. I have a hard time doing math and after having smoked found that I am more attentive, am happier, and mind you can do physics like its nothing. I did 3 problems in 15 minutes whereas it would have taken close to 40. And on top of this a study was released recently from Canada with results that state the complete opposite of this study. I ask you. Where did you guys get these results?
- —Guest Legitus
good things can be misused
- Marijuana can be great when used wisely. Responsible use of natural medications such as marijuana is common sense. I have mild hypomania and chronic neck pain and marijuana helps me so much. sadly I have to live in fear of employer discrimination for what I choose to do in the safety and privacy of my own home. One day things will change, for now we keep our voices heard and our heads up.
- —Guest better
So marijuana causes cancer?
- You don't say. I heard that tar and other carcinogens are inhaled while smoking marijuana, but it's also proven that the cannabinoids can cut lung cancer tumor growth by HALF. Not to even mention that there is zero relation to lung cancer and marijuana. ZERO. It actually prevents it. You also forgot to mention that marijuana, out of all the other "drugs" (including pain pills), is LAST in the "Deaths due to drugs" list. More people have died from caffeine! I mean, come on, get your facts straight before posting this on your site. Search "marijuana lung cancer relation" in Google, and you will see that the facts I posted are the first couple articles that show up.
- —Guest collegeFreshman
Most biased "article" award goes to.
- I'm a 21 year old Engineering student. I can say for certain that this drug does not mess with your ability to solve problems. Solving problems is all I do, day in day out. My grades are fairly good (low 80%). I also have ADHD and the pills that i have to take to be able to focus make it impossible to eat and very difficult to sleep. Two things I have trouble with daily. I first started smoking when i was 16 and have been doing it off and on since. I had not smoked in almost a year when I first started taking dexadrine. I spent 3 months eating maybe eating 1 meal a day, sometimes none. I was also sleeping about 4-5 hours a night. At the end of those 3 months I was 6'2 135lbs. The end came when I smoked some weed one night, hoping it would help me sleep. Not only did I sleep like a baby that night, I also ate more food than i usually would in 2 days. I am now 155lbs and sleeping on average 7 hours a night and still on my ADHD meds. That's my story of how Marijuana affect my health.
- —Guest Max13
