For a store that is very 'farshun', Opening Ceremony had pretty unfashionable beginnings.
Business partners and OC founders Humberto Leon and Carol Lim met at a mutual friend's house and when Leon suggested they go out somewhere, Lim put on some heels with the pyjamas she was already snuggled into. Not bad.
Since then Leon and Lim opened Opening Ceremony in New York's Soho, then other stores in Los Angeles and Tokyo.
…And now London. At least for a moment.
The pop-up Opening Ceremony is in Covent Garden, London and was created as a temporary store while the permanent London version is finished. Coincidentally, the store's opening coincided with the New York store's opening, as well as the London Olympics.
Chloe Sevigny (an OC favourite) has brought back some of her older designs, and designers including Band of Outsiders, Pamela Love and House of Holland have made Olympic-themed garb specifically for the store.

The presence of latent tuberculosis is routinely assessed by a tuberculin skin test (TST), which detects a cell-mediated immune response to the injected tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD). Although TST has been in use for over a century, its limitations include poor specificity (i.e., numerous false positive results), the need to examine the site 48-72 hours after injection, and the subjective interpretation of results (i.e., estimation of the diameter of induration). For example, a negative result may indicate no exposure to the organism, or simply an inability of the lymphocytes to respond. A positive result may indicate acute current infection, past exposure without infection, or exposure to other mycobacterial antigens, including prior immunization with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine (BCG). In addition, the underreporting of positive TSTs by health care workers has been an ongoing concern that has led to an educational campaign, the National Tuberculosis Training Initiative, sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other national medical and nursing organizations.
One of the tests investigated is an in vitro assay as an alternative to TST. The assay, originally investigated in cattle, is based on the incubation of whole blood with antigens specific for TB and the subsequent immunoassay of gamma interferon released from reactive T cells, if present. The production of gamma interferon represents activation of the cell-mediated immune system, similar in concept to the immunologic basis of the tuberculin skin test. However, the in vitro blood test avoids the problem of requiring a second office visit to interpret the tuberculin skin test, and the well-known variability in the subjective assessment of intradermal skin reaction. Another feature of the in vitro assay is its ability to distinguish between reactivity from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) reactivity related to mycobacteria other than tuberculosis (MOTT). MOTT is a significant cause of false positive TST results.
The QuantiFERON-TB® assay (CSL Biosciences, Australia) for detection of gamma interferon production is a blood test that has been used in humans in Australia. In November 2001, this test received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States for the following indication:
"The QuantiFERON-TB® test is intended as an aid in the detection of latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection."
In December of 2004, QuantiFERON-TB® GOLD received FDA approval for the detection of latent TB. This test differs from the first generation test in that instead of using PPD as the stimulus for interferon production, two antigens, ESAT-6 and CFP-10, are used. These antigens are present in mycobacterium tuberculosis, but are not present in those exposed to BCG or non-tuberculous mycobacteria.
In May of 2005, QuantiFERON-TB® Gold (QFT-G, Cellestis Limited, Carnegie, Victoria, Australia), received final approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as an aid for diagnosing Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. This test detects the release of interferon-gamma (IFN-g) in fresh heparinized whole blood from sensitized persons when it is incubated with mixtures of synthetic peptides representing two proteins present in M. tuberculosis: early secretory antigenic target-6 (ESAR-6) and culture filtrate protein-10 (CFP-10). These antigens impart greater specificity than is possible with tests using purified protein derivative as the tuberculosis (TB) antigen.

Medically Necessary
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana (BCBSMT) may consider diagnostic blood assays for tuberculosis (TB) medically necessary in patients considered at high risk for latent tuberculosis infection and who have frequent false-negative and false-positive tuberculin skin testing (TST). Such patients include, but are not limited to, HIV-infected patients and intravenous drug abusers.
The published medical literature regarding the QuantiFERON® TB test consists of several articles comparing the sensitivity and specificity of the gamma interferon blood test with the TST in various populations of patients. Streeton and colleagues compared the results of a tuberculin skin test and a gamma interferon blood test in 952 Australian volunteers, including both a group of military recruits and those attending a specialist respiratory medicine practice. The purpose of the study was to determine appropriate cut-off levels for interpreting the results of the gamma interferon TB blood test such that the blood test would be equivalent to the TST. Using the designated cut-off point, the specificity of the gamma interferon blood tests was 98% (407/417 individuals with no known exposure to tuberculosis were negative) and sensitivity was 90% (163/182 untreated patients with positive TST results were positive). The gamma interferon blood test was also positive in 43% (55/128) of those with known exposure to TB but TST negative. These results suggest that the blood test may be more sensitive than the TST, but the investigators did not pursue microbiological or histopathologic confirmation of these results.
Converse and colleagues compared the results of the gamma interferon blood test with the TST in a high-risk population of 67 patients, consisting of HIV seropositive and HIV seronegative intravenous drug users. The participants in the study were categorized into six groups according to their HIV status, TST status, and presence of anergy (immune unresponsiveness). The results of the gamma interferon test were then compared with the results of the TST for each group. The gamma interferon blood test agreed 89%-100% of the time with a positive TST in both HIV positive and negative subjects, but the blood test was positive 52% of the time among those with a negative TST or with anergy. Similar to the Streeton study above, these results suggest the gamma interferon blood test may be more sensitive than the TST, although further investigation is needed to assess the clinical significance of discordant results.
The available data suggest that the gamma interferon blood test can be calibrated to produce results comparable to the TST. Whether or not the blood test will be more sensitive than the skin test requires further research. Aside from the diagnostic performance, an advantage of the blood test is that only one office visit is required, unlike the skin test in which a repeat office visit to assess results of the skin test may be required. While a repeat office visit may not be considered necessary in screening reliable, low-risk patients, a second office visit is considered more important in high-risk patients, i.e., in HIV-positive patients or intravenous drug users. In some studies, the call back rates of these patients have been below 50%. The objective interpretation of the blood test, compared to the subjective interpretation of skin test, is also perceived as a potential advantage.
Further data are available from the FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness, representing the data presented to the FDA as part of the FDA-approval process. The clinical data included 1,042 individuals undergoing screening for latent M. tuberculosis infection. Patients underwent both a TST and a QuantiFERON TB® test. The results of this trial have also been published in the peer-reviewed literature.
Agreement of the QuantiFERON TB® with the TST was 84.8%. Within this group agreement was 88.1% for subjects with no history of BCG vaccination and 70% for those who had. Reactivity to mycobacteria other than MOTT can also cause false positive TST reactions. Of the 80 individuals with TST positive discordant results, 13 were classified as QuantiFERON TB® negative due to reactivity to MOTT. The authors concluded that QuantiFERON TB® was equivalent to TST in its ability to detect latent M. tuberculosis infection. As noted in the discussion section, a patient only needs to be seen once for the QuantiFERON TB® test, whereas for TST the patient needs to self-evaluate or return for evaluation at 48 to 72 hours later to have their adverse reaction measured. In some situations, as many as 65% of individuals fail to return to have their TST read. As noted in the FDA summary of safety and effectiveness, "Whatever the merits of accuracy of the TST itself, the failure to obtain a result for the test, in such a large proportion of individuals, has considerable public health implications. A test for latent TB infection, which has equivalent performance to the TST and does not require subject to return to have the test read, has obvious public health benefits and can only lead to more truly infected individuals being treated than is currently the case."
It should be noted that for many patients undergoing routine screening for TB, such as the routine screening of schoolchildren with no other known risk factors, self assessment of the skin reaction by parents or care givers is considered adequate. In contrast, patients at high risk for latent TB infection, such as patients with HIV infection or intravenous drug use, are typically called back to have formal interpretation of the skin reaction. This population of patients would probably derive the most benefit from an in vitro assay.

Repeka Nasiko
Thursday, August 14, 2014
A POST-mortem examination will be conducted on a fetus found at Lautoka's Shirley Park on Tuesday.
Police West spokeswoman Naina Ragigia said the examination would be conducted to determine the cause of death and the age of the fetus.
She added they did not have any leads on the case.
"We are still conducting our investigations but at this point in time, we have yet to find anyone that would have critical information," she said.
The corpse, wrapped in plastic and newspaper, was found in a rubbish bin by a contracted council worker around 7.30am.
The post-mortem examination will be conducted at the Lautoka Hospital today.

I'm testing the icons in different environments and against different backgrounds. I then tweak the icons accordingly (usually small changes like the strength of strokes and highlights) and move them to another environment. It's a tedious process, but it makes sure they look good wherever you place them. Hopefully :P
PS. I'm very happy with the subtle highlight on the hole left by the map pin, if I may say so myself :)

SALEM, Ore. -- The Oregon House has voted to pull a statue of Oregon pioneer Jason Lee from a prominent place in the U.S. Capitol and replace it with one of Mark Hatfield.
Hatfield supporters insist they have nothing against Lee, a missionary in the 19th century and founder of the school that became Willamette University. They say it's time for a more modern and prominent figure in Oregon's history.
Hatfield was an Oregon governor and a Republican U.S. senator well-known for his willingness to buck the GOP.
Each state gets two statues in the U.S. Capitol. The state House voted Monday to require the Oregon Historical Society to raise money for a Hatfield statue. Lee's statue would return to Salem.
The measure goes to the Senate.

Times Educational Supplement
By 2005 only 240,000 of America's 60 million school children attended public schools run by education management organizations. Few, if any, of those organizations were yet in profit and the educational gains their schools had made were bitterly contested. In Learning on the Job, Steven Wilson offers us a timely and convincing analysis of why this happened...There are real insights here, not just into the short-termism of entrepreneurial interest but also into the structural weaknesses of American public education. His book is enjoyable, clear, and fair-minded: on any basis, a major contribution to an important debate.

E-Verify, a semi-voluntary online program by which employers can confirm the identity and work authorization of workers as they are hired, is being programmed to "lock out" social security numbers (SSNs) that have been repeatedly used by imposters, generating "tentative nonconfirmations" (TNCs) for authorized workers assigned to those SSNs and requiring them to resolve the TNC with potentially understaffed Social Security offices.
U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS), which operates E-Verify, has announced that it will lock SSNs that appear to have been misused based on "a combination of algorithms, detection reports and analysis." Presumably, USCIS will identify an SSN as "misused" by finding patterns of use of the SSN by different workers for whom E-Verify queries have been made by employers. This identification probably is trickier than it seems, because a worker to whom a SSN belongs might maintain more than one job at a time with employers whose E-Verify querying offices are in dispersed locations, and the worker might change one or more of those jobs frequently. USCIS might at least initially limit the lockdown to SSNs with blatantly impossible frequency and geographic breadth of use in E-Verify.
But it appears that the lockdown is a crude tool that will affect the proper owner of the SSN as well as the imposters who have stolen it. The lockdown apparently will cause anyone-- even the worker to whom the SSN properly is assigned-- to be given a "tentative nonconfirmation" (TNC) that must be resolved at an office of the Social Security Administration (SSA).
While the goal of deterring SSN fraud is laudable, this approach gives rise to serious questions, and USCIS sudden announcement fails to provide the information and opportunity for comment and consideration that people should expect of a government imposing such burdens.
How will SSA determine who is real? With hope, the real SSN owner will be able to convince the people in the local SSA office that he is genuine. USCIS has given no details about how SSA officers will carry out this function, and people must worry if they will be able to prove their identity or face some kind of Orwellian nightmare.
What happens when the real SSN owner then moves to a new job with an employer who uses E-Verify? Will he have to go through the entire ordeal at SSA again every time he gets hired? USCIS has not disclosed any mechanism to "lock in" the real SSN owner while locking out imposters.
What if an imposter convinces a SSA worker that he is real while the real SSN owner works away with a longstanding employer and has no awareness of the lockdown? What will happen when the real SSN owner takes a new job with an E-Verifying employer? Will he face a heightened standard to dislodge the identity "locked in" by the imposter?
How many hours a day will employers using E-Verify and the real SSN owners spend dealing with these TNCs and resolutions? We all know that E-Verify has in fact spurred a shift from counterfeit documents using fictitious identities to counterfeit documents embodying stolen real identities. The volume of this problem could be very significant. USCIS has not disclosed any numbers of SSNs it expects to lock down.
Are SSA offices sufficiently staffed with properly trained officers to handle this function to critical to the working status of so many people? SSA staffing has been a major concern in discussions about a mandatory rollout of E-Verify to all employers. USCIS' announcement fails to mention any coordination with SSA or any workload and staffing assessments and plans by SSA.
The amount of burden on the economy and the potential confusion among legitimate people should have triggered a public "notice and comment" rulemaking process in which these questions would be worked out before implementation of a well-intentioned policy.

French conductor Pierre Vallet is renowned throughout the world for his superb musicianship, which has led him to work regularly with the world's foremost opera houses.
Recent operatic engagements include Puccini's Madama Butterfly and Gounod's Faust at the Metropolitan Opera New York; Faust at the Gran Teatro del Liceu Barcelona; La Juive at the Göteborg Opera Sweden; Hänsel and Gretel at the Saito Kinen Festival; Bartok's Bluebeard's Castle with Matthias Goerne and the Saito Kinen Festival Orchestra on its debut tour of China; and Madama Butterfly at Tokyo Bunka Kaikan. Pierre made his début in Tokyo conducting Otello with Tokyo Opera Nomori in 2006
Elsewhere Pierre has conducted Tannhäuser at L'Opéra national de Paris; Eugene Onegin and Tannhäuser at Tokyo Opera Nomori; and Massenet's Manon at the Bolshoi in Moscow.
He will conduct Don Carlo at the Lithuanian National Opera, Vilnius in March of 2016.
Pierre Vallet has enjoyed a long-term musical partnership with Seiji Ozawa, working closely together on some forty operatic productions and concerts throughout Japan, the US and Europe, encompassing a large and diverse repertoire. At the Saito Kinen Festival Matsumoto he has conducted Rossini's Il Barbiere di Siviglia and Humperdink's Hänsel & Gretel, and has collaborated on many other productions including, most recently, Ravel's L'enfant et les sortilèges / L'heure espagnole - directed by Laurent Pelly. In the summer of 2015 he will be collaborating with him again on Béatrice et Bénédict.
Pierre's symphonic work includes several appearances at the Spoleto Festival USA, and he is a regular guest with the Greenwich Village Orchestra (NYC).

Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones thinks the Sooners are still in the national championship race, although he acknowledges he'll have to play better for them to have a chance. Jones has accepted most of the blame for No. 16 Oklahoma's 24-19 home loss to Kansas State on Saturday, after he fumbled to give the Wildcats one touchdown and threw a momentum-killing interception on another drive. He noted that in 2008, the Sooners played for the national title despite a midseason loss to Texas and that ''all our goals are still in front'' of Oklahoma this season. Coach Bob Stoops says there is plenty of blame to spread around after the loss to Kansas State and Jones is just one of many Sooners who needs to improve.

iPhone 4S for Free? Phone Doctors Reveals Techniques on Upgrading at No Cost
Friday October 14th marks the release of Apple's latest smart phone, the iPhone 4S. When the iPhone 4S was made available for pre-order on October 6th, over 1 million were sold on the first day. Phone Doctors reveals often overlooked techniques to upgrading to the iPhone 4S with no out of pocket expense.
Tulsa, OK (PRWEB) October 14, 2011
Most consumers may not realize that when purchased outside of contract, the iPhone 4S retails at $650 and up. This is about the price of an inexpensive laptop computer, and often this is simply too much for most people to justify spending on a mobile device.
Mobile phone carriers such as Sprint, Verizon and AT&T are now offering the iPhone 4S for as little as $199 when you add or renew a 2 year contract for service.
This is still expensive for many consumers that are accustomed to free phone offers with prior contracts. However, if a consumer already has a smart phone, and if it is in decent shape, it is very likely that they can sell it to the Phone Doctors for $199 or more. At that point they are able to get their new iPhone 4S practically for free with no out of pocket expense.
How to get an iPhone 4S for free in 3 easy steps:
- Call or visit your local AT&T, Sprint or Verizon carrier
- Upgrade to the iPhone 4S for as little as $199 and add or renew your contract.
- Visit http://PHONEDOCTORS.com to mail in your old phone or call us at 1-855-234-9483. Phone Doctors will pay you according to their published rates, typically within 72 hours.
"The popularity of the iPhone 4S is absolutely amazing. The new features of the iPhone 4S include a faster processor, integrated speech recognition, and an 8 megapixel camera." said Alex Iser, CEO of Phone Doctors. "Our competitive smart phone buy back program is a great way to upgrade to the latest iPhone 4S practically for free, without the risk and hassles of trying to sell your old phone on the open market."
Iser added that if a smart phone is free of major damage and a consumer still has their box and original accessories, it increases the value of their phone as well. "It's very likely that some people will not only get their iPhone 4S free of any additional expense, but they can actually make a little money as well." said Iser.
For more information on how to upgrade to the iPhone 4S for free, please visit http://PHONEDOCTORS.com or call 1-855-234-9483.
Phone Doctors is a pioneer in the cellular phone repair and replacement industry. Alex Iser founded Phone Doctors in 2004 after several years of providing wholesale and repair services in the industry. Today Phone Doctors has multiple locations and agreements with a network of over 750 retail stores nationwide. Phone Doctors is now taking applications for new locations and mobile repair technicians throughout the United States.

Overheating of the transmission fluid will cause it to expand and be pushed out of the overflow tube. If the transmission was a bit overfull to start with that will worsen the problem. The loss of reverse may have caused the transmission to slip and the fluid to overheat. No mater what the outside temperature is a slipping transmission can overheat the internal fluid. The transmission fluid cooler should also be checked for proper operation.

Qui Tam Case Against JM Eagle and Formosa Plastics
WASHINGTON, Feb. 18 /PRNewswire/ — The following statement is being issued by Phillips & Cohen LLP:
J.M. Eagle's president and other company representatives have made inaccurate statements that misinterpret the federal government's decision not to intervene at the present time in the qui tam case against JM Eagle and Formosa Plastics Corp. (USA), says Phillips & Cohen LLP, which represents the whistleblower, the Commonwealth of Virginia, the State of Tennessee and 25 California cities and water districts in the lawsuit. The actual circumstances of the government's decision are explained below.
Representatives of the four states and 43 cities and water districts that have joined a whistleblower lawsuit against JM Eagle and Formosa Plastics Corp. (USA) are available to respond to any comments made by JM Eagle, Formosa Plastics and their lawyers about the case. The lawsuit alleges that JM Eagle supplied their water and sewer systems with pipes that JM knew were substandard.
1) JM EAGLE STATEMENT: JM Eagle President Walter Wang said in an open letter to "valued customers" dated Feb. 12, that federal investigators came to the "conclusion that we [JM Eagle] have always operated with the highest principles and standards, and that all of the products we [JM Eagle] manufacture exceeded quality standards."
FACT: The federal investigation never came to any such conclusion. That characterization is totally JM Eagle's and never was made by the federal government.
2) JM EAGLE STATEMENT: Wang writes in the Feb. 12 letter that he provided "definitive proof" to the federal government and that "the truth has set [JM Eagle] free at the federal level."
FACT: The federal government sent a letter (dated Feb. 8, 2010) stating:
"The [Federal] Government's decision to decline intervention at this time should not be construed as a statement about the merits of the case. Indeed, the Government retains the right to intervene at a later date upon a showing of good cause. Moreover, although the Government is not currently a litigant, it remains the real party in interest, and is entitled to the majority of any damages and penalties recovered on its behalf." [Emphasis added; legal citations omitted.]
3) Wang fails to note that the federal government is a relatively small purchaser of JM Eagle pipe. He is using a complete mischaracterization of the government's decision to distract from the seriousness of the case.
FACT: The pipe in question in the lawsuit is primarily used by states, municipalities and local water districts. The quantity purchased by those users greatly exceeds the quantity purchased by the federal government. This is why Nevada, Virginia, Delaware, Tennessee, San Diego, Sacramento, San Jose, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and 39 other California municipalities and water districts have joined the case.

If we are talking 1994 it is 'Illmatic' and 'Ready To Die' that most will remember but, Jeru The Damaja's stunning debut 'The Sun Rises In The East', produced from start to finish by DJ Premier, shouldn't be forgotten. Check 'Da Bitchez' on Code of the Streets mixtape for a reminder of why.
The highlight of the album has to be the classic first single 'Come Clean' - a faultless hip-hop tune with a dripping-tap beat which provides the perfect bassline to Jeru's rhyming. 'The Sun Rises In The East' is a reminder of how music can make you think about your place in the world, so reach for this album. For enlightenment and a unique perspective, look to the horizon in the east.

Letters: union fight, school help, criminal justice, spending
Democracy in tumult in Wisconsin
Wisconsin Democratic legislators have done their constituents, and our nation, a great disservice by turning tail and fleeing to Illinois in hopes of stalemating the legislative process ("Wisconsin governor seizes chance to take on unions," Feb. 21).
Gov. Scott Walker was elected on a platform to address the state's fiscal crisis. He openly targeted public employee unions, ran a campaign and was elected. Now that he is attempting to deliver on his campaign promise by reigning in benefits and retirement costs of public employees, the minority party pulls this stunt.
I am not anti-teacher or anti-union. I am not against paying competitive salaries, and I'm not against paying teachers higher salaries. I am against union leadership that continues to put its interests above the greater good.
I hope Wisconsin comes to its senses. Wisconsin's Democrats must have the decency to be Americans and play by the rules, not run away like cowards. -- Jack V. Cohen, San Diego
Those on the far right crack me up. When Obama wanted to raise the taxes on the rich and big business, they cried "class warfare." What is going on in Wisconsin is the destruction of unions, period. Union members across the country, private or not, have taken cuts in pay and benefits already. Now the right wants to take collective bargaining away. Why? So big business and the rich can get wealthier and those workers can work for minimum wage. This doesn't sound like class warfare to me. -- Mark Weimann, Temecula
Seeking an Rx for teaching
In "Is teaching making our teachers sick?" (Opinion, Feb. 20), Mindy Sloan, whose job is apparently dependent upon prospective teachers getting more and more college education in order to be "qualified" to teach, sets forth the onerous secondary educational requirements to be a teacher. Yet when I hear President Obama state his goal of improving our math and science education, I wonder if there are mathematicians and scientists at companies like Google, Qualcomm or Life Technologies who have made millions on stock options and would like to give back to society by teaching at the junior high or high school level, but are apparently "unqualified" to do so. I think that is a shame. -- Doug Obenshain, Carlsbad
Mindy Sloan's commentary, juxtaposed with the article "School innovations show mixed results" (Local, Feb. 20), makes a parent and taxpayer scratch their head.
In the latter article, the City Heights Educational Collaborative has been sending students to on-site health centers; case managers, social workers and SDSU counseling students have been assigned to students at the mentioned campuses. Given Sloan's analysis of a lack of teacher support, perhaps that attention needs to be given to teachers instead. She indicates the teachers are in dire need of that kind of help.
We are asked to support the teachers, but at the same time, the system is providing free day care, free breakfasts, free lunches and all those amenities outlined above. Who needs a parent? -- Maryanne Culkin, Escondido

By Paul Strauss: Devon Alexander treated the Mohegan Sun Casino fans in Uncasville, Conn to something special.........a first time stoppage of Juan Urango. Knowledgeable fans expected Alexander to box well, but not everyone was certain that he could remain in charge over the course of a long pressure filled fight with one of the most feared punchers in the junior welterweight division.
Alexander started the fight making use of a very good sharp, crisp right jab. That punch, coupled with an occasional right uppercut and good movement easily kept in him charge for the first couple of rounds. By the third round, Urango seemed to increase the pressure a notch or two, and managed to land a few pretty good right hooks to the head, and several hard wide shots to the body.
In the next couple of rounds, it appeared Urango was managing to inch a bit closer to Alexander, and the threat of his power becoming more of a factor seemed likely.. But, every time he seemed to get an attack going, Alexander would counter, or move out of danger. He was boxing beautifully.
By the fifth, Urango seemed to get even more frightening with the muscled hard punching pressure. However, he has a bad habit of bending in when he comes forward ready to launch a punch, and Alexander repeatedly took advantage by use of the right uppercut. It was an hard punch, and obviously would get Urango's attention, but no one anticipated the effect it would have a little later. Timing is everything. The main thing was Alexander remained calm and continued to box very well.
In the seventh round and the final eighth round, Urango stepped up the level of power on his shots, so much so that he was actually leaving his feet with his punches, especially the right hook. That proved to be his undoing in the eighth when he missed with a straight left, and then left his feet with what he most certainly hoped would be a huge right hook. It was at that same moment that Alexander fired his own right uppercut as a counter to Urango's missed left. The right uppercut met Urango's airborne body right on the chin, and down went Urango in a very bad way.
Urango managed to beat the count, but Alexander caught him with another glancing uppercut, and then a right hook to the temple. Urango went down again,, and this time it was apparent he was not going to recover. The referee looked closely at him and chose to waive things off. Urango was not in control of his faculties and the TKO was the proper call. The Iron Twin succumbed to Alexander the Great.

Tino Suits
I've always loved wearing suits. They make me feel so classy and proper even if I'm goofing around. Ever since I started hosting, I've had to wear suits more often than I thought which meant that I needed a bigger collection. Topman and Zara were my usual RTW brands when it came to my coat and tie needs and to be honest, I was quite happy with them. I even felt the urge to collect several colors. Black, dark blue, gray, light gray, pinstriped, etc… Aside from needing them for works, I liked having the suits lined up in my closet hehe.

ANAHEIM HILLS – El Rancho Charter School teachers are given a simple but incredibly liberating directive: Tell us what you need to make learning happen, and we will find a way to get it for you.
Want to start a new class? Need new computers? Think students would benefit from a new afterschool tutoring program? Every idea is considered when it comes to student success.
"We can really imagine anything and then implement it," said Michele Walker, the school's principal of academics. "I never say 'No.' If they come up with a great idea, it's 'Let's see how we can make it work.' "
The freedom to innovate – unencumbered by red tape – led teachers and administrators at El Rancho to convert the Orange Unified campus into a charter 11 years ago. Greater autonomy and strong teacher support, they believed, would lead to better academic performance.
And boy, were they right.
Since undergoing charter conversion, the school's Academic Performance Index has grown a remarkable 144 points, propelling the charter into the No. 1 spot in this year's Orange County Register middle school rankings.
El Rancho is the first charter school to earn the top spot in any of the Register's annual campus rankings.
At the heart of the school's success are strong academic support programs for students and a cornucopia of choices when it comes to academic and extracurricular activities.
"We've opened a lot of programs that didn't exist before," said John Besta, the school's principal of business operations. "We don't have to deal with the bureaucracy."
While budget cuts drove many schools to slash extracurricular offerings in recent years, El Rancho has managed to expand its classes. The school offers roughly 30 extracurricular classes every semester, including Spanish, French, Mandarin, musical theater, home economics, Photoshop, guitar, orchestra, violin and dance.
Now, El Rancho is piloting English and history classes taught entirely on iPads, an idea teachers suggested last year.
The school makes all these programs work by balancing different needs. Classes at El Rancho average 32.8 students, larger than the district average, and enrollment in some subjects ranges between 35 and 40 students, Walker said. The school also asks more of its parents, requiring them to volunteer 10 hours a year.
But such choices allow the school to offer seven periods a day instead of six, giving kids the chance to take two electives instead of one. The school also offers a zero period class so that students with extra English or math classes can still take two electives if they want to.
It's the electives, students say, that make school so much fun.
"I love this school," Gabbie Edmiston, 12, said. "You get a bunch of opportunities to do what you want to do."

Eleven North Korea defectors arrested by China, face deportation: Activist
Published on Jul 2, 2014 8:12 PM
SEOUL (REUTERS) - Chinese authorities have arrested 11 North Koreans who had fled their country and will likely deport them back to the North where they could face severe punishment, a human rights activist said on Wednesday.
The 11 were arrested in China's Jilin province that borders North Korea on June 19, said the activist, who has worked as a Christian missionary helping North Korean defectors in China. He asked to be identified only by his surname Kim in order not to jeopardise his work with defectors in China. "We hope that (Chinese President) Xi Jinping will help these people as the leader of a great nation," Kim told Reuters.
Mr Xi visits South Korea on Thursday for talks with President Park Geun-hye focusing on the North's nuclear programme and promoting the two countries' commercial ties.
The United Nations has said China is required under international law not to return defectors to North Korea, where they could face persecution, torture and possibly death.

Universal Health Care has garnered much of the spotlight in national politics; however a state version is enjoying some early, if short-lived success in Sacramento. The California State Senate has passed SB 810, authored my Mark Leno (D) San Francisco. The bill, referred to as the California Universal Health Care Act, aims to provide health coverage to all Californians by way of a public/private partnership. Governor Schwarzenegger has already vowed to veto the bill should it reach his desk.
According to Leno's office, the bill would bring all California residents under one insurance plan. By creating, one massive purchaser, proponents claim that spending power would lower the overall cost of providing healthcare, prescription drugs and medical equipment.
The bill will target the money currently being spent on healthcare by consumers, employers and governmental agencies. Estimated at $212 billion annually, Leno believes that amount will be sufficient to provide healthcare for state residents.
"The real impetus behind this bill is a growing grassroots movement representing millions of Californians who want a health care system that takes care of their families and is affordable for themselves and employers," Senator Leno said. "At a time when millions of Californians are at risk of losing their health coverage and employers are being strangled by rising premiums, there is no choice but to stand up to insurance companies that squander 30% of every health care dollar on administrative overhead."
Leno claims that the bill has cost restrictions tied to economic factors like employment and state GDP, which he says will limit cost increases.
The bill passed the state senate on January 28 by a vote of 22-14, with one Democrat and all Republicans in opposition.
George Runner and Tony Strickland, our representatives in the state senate, blasted the bill's passage.
"This plan is to the Left and radical of what couldn't get out of Washington, said Runner. "Does anybody believe a state that has year-after-year deficits can control the costs of health care?"
Senator Strickland expressed shock that such a bill would be passed given the national reaction to healthcare legislation.
"SB 810 passed the Senate appropriations committee less than 48 hours after the voters of Massachusetts, one of the most liberal states in the union, elected Republican Scott Brown in response to their strong opposition to the federal healthcare proposal. This bill is even worse than the federal proposal. It removes consumer choice – it makes private health insurance coverage and plans illegal."
Strickland continued; "If you want the compassion of the IRS and the efficiency of the DMV, then this bill is for you."
The bill is now headed for the state Assembly. Why keep a bill moving, only to know that it's headed for a veto? Senator Leno says the topic needs to be discussed, and alternatives still make Universal Healthcare a possibility.
"Keep in mind, unlike at the federal level, here in California the voters will have the final say on this issue," he said. " If we can't get the Governor's signature, we know we will have to gather the signatures and put it before the voters ourselves. So by 2012 or 2014, we must educate voters so that they will not vote against their own health and financial interests when this issue gets to their ballot."

It didn't remove any blackheads and I have used it quite often but it does remove oil which can be good for some people but for me it ended up making my skin very dry.

Gear Review
No complaints. Great chalk bag. I have used it for outdoor and indoor climbing. Perfect size (for me) and closes up nicely to eliminate spilling chalk. The ring at the opening makes it easy to get hands in and out. The brush holder and zippered pocket adds everything u could want in a chalk bag. I use the zippered pocket to put sum small first aid items in but like others have stated its large enough for a small wallet or smartphone.

I can't speak for anyone else but when I say "who cares", I'm kind of saying "no one should". Another words their is nothing to be upset about because most of what we are talking about here are sort of grey area speculation reactions to other speculations and assumptions which aren't true at all nor are they supported by anything but more speculation.
For example "FFG doesn't care about their customer", or that "We are just cash to them". To me, that's being pretty harsh and unrealistic, FFG shows us they care by making great games, they don't have to make a personal phone call to a disgruntle forum poster to give the appearance of "caring" about their customers and to claim that if they don't speak up that their is some sort of speculative "failure" somewhere is obsurd and kind of offensive not just to FFG and the whole development team but to the fans that support them. Its a sort of propoganda statement that tries to dehumanize a company as if it was some sort of evil corporation out to screw the consumer. Nothing could be further from the truth, a fact supported by 2 decades of dedication to the development of games. These guys run a business but its a business made of people who love games and they make them for other people who love games, their is no conspiracy here nor should their be any ill will towards FFG. Bringing this kind of speculation to the forum shows a lack of appriciation for the people who work hard to bring us great games.
This "what have you done for me lately" attitude being displayed on an otherwise great forum about a great role-playing game is weak status in my book.
I can honestly say I care about WFRP but don't give a toss about FFG. As to producing great products I am afraid their record has been pretty hit and miss with WFRP. The core system was not playtested thoroughly enough, particularly at levels over Rank 1. In the case of the adventures, the Gathering Storm was perhaps the worst product ever produced under the WFRP banner, while Edge of Night was one of the best. I speak as somebody who has playtested for FFG, though I did not playtest the Core product or the Gathering Storm. I am afraid FFG's lack of communication skills can also be inferred from their lack of communication with some of their freelance writers. I am not sure that FFG does care about WFRP, because the products have been very hit and miss. I think it has proven to be a good test bed for the Star Wars RPG, nothing more
