Calif. port town attracts tsunamis
To a ship at sea, it was not even noticeable. Three to four feet high. A bump in the ocean. As it moved east, the energy bounced off a huge underwater ridge extending out from Mendocino, deflecting part of it toward Crescent City. The deflection slowed the wave, making it a little higher.
Moving into shallower water, the energy built even more. It was focused again by the half-moon shape of the bay. The first surges to hit the shore were small. Bouncing back, they made the next surges bigger. When the biggest of the surges hit the tidal gauge, it measured 8.1 feet, Dengler said.
That bouncing amplification is what caught Dustin Weber at the mouth of the Klamath River. He and two friends thought the tsunami was over after the first surge, his family said. He was caught in a bigger surge that hit a couple hours later. His body has not been found.
The word tsunami is Japanese for harbor wave, and many times the worst physical damage comes once the waves enter the confines of a harbor, said Costas Synolakis, professor of civil and environmental engineering and director of the Tsunami Research Center at the University of Southern California.
After the 1964 tsunami, Crescent City built a rectangular boat basin. It is great at sheltering boats from stormy seas, but actually makes the effects of the tsunami worse, Dengler said.
"It looks like what happens if you hit a drum," Synolakis said. "You create waves with just one hit to it, but the drum keeps vibrating. What that means is it takes a couple waves to come in. Then you set up these back and forth waves inside the harbor that end up reinforcing each other. Crescent City took about 36 hours for the oscillation to die down."
Another set of oscillations is created by the waves bouncing off the Continental Shelf, he said.
Synolakis hopes that if scientists can understanding the oscillations better, they can design harbors so the water bounces around less.
"What we are realizing in California is if we have tsunamis coming from far away, we are not going to see huge waves of the size we saw in Japan," he said. "But we are going to have these very strong currents that essentially destroy the ports."
"Misty Bob" Page saw the effects firsthand on Friday. Not wanting to spend the day on the ocean riding out the tsunami, he kept his boat, Misty Anne, in the boat basin. The tsunami roared in, one wave after another. His boat was torn loose, and flung about. He and a friend fended off other boats. They managed to duck into another slip and tie up, riding out surges that continued through the night.
"By the time I decided I'd better leave, there was this big wall of water coming in and I couldn't," Page said.

For Israel, Gas to Come Less Naturally
How Egyptian regime change will squeeze Israeli energy
"There are some things that would have to be thought about or renegotiated," Professor Samer Shehata said more than a month ago, when Hosni Mubarak was still Egypt's president, discussing the prospect of a more democratic government. He then mentioned something that, compared to the Camp David treaty and the Gaza blockade, gets little attention: "The sale of natural gas to Israel is complicated," he noted. "Many Egyptians would be willing to sell gas to Israel if they believed they were selling gas at international prices, as opposed to in an opaque, murky economic transaction that people seem to be left in the dark about—where no one really knows what the arrangements really are and the assumption, for good reason, is that the sale of gas is at below-market prices."
Sure enough, we have received tentative evidence that the sale of Egyptian natural gas to Israel was corrupt.
Earlier this week, a Kuwaiti paper reported that Mubarak's two sons received hundreds of millions of dollars in commissions from the sale of natural gas to Israel—specifically, that each got a 2.5 percent cut of 2005's 15-year, $2.5 billion deal with East Mediterranean Gas, of which one of the sons is the largest shareholder.
Haaretz noted that Egypt supplies 40 percent of Israel's natural gas, which uses it to generate 20 percent of its electricity.
So what happens now that such revelations have appeared—reportedly, the Kuwaiti paper learned of these kickbacks from interior department documents that presumably became more available ever since Mubarak's three-decade reign ended? And what happens if and when Egypt's government grows more responsive to its people? Likely, Israel will need to pay more for Egyptian natural gas or get less of it. Already its supply is less secure, as evidenced by the blowing up of a pipeline in the Sinai in the midst of the unrest leading to Mubarak's ouster.
Fortunately for Israel, it has recently made several massive offshore gas discoveries; less fortunately, some of those fields are disputed by Lebanon—a disagreement widely seen to be a likely future beginning to war. It is remarkable that not three months ago, Israel had no concern for its continued steady supply of Egyptian natural gas.

Older drivers in general are safe — drivers age 65 and older made up 16 percent of all licensed drivers in 2009, but were involved in 8 percent of all crashes.
Older drivers are more likely to get killed or injured because they are more likely to be physically fragile and less able to recover from injuries. In fact, one out of every five traffic fatalities in Minnesota is a person age 65 or older.
Most older drivers self-regulate fairly well — they voluntarily stop driving at night, in urban areas, or far from home.
Pay attention to older family members' driving.
Start the discussion of when to stop driving, and determine other transportation options.
This can be a sensitive issue for many older drivers; driving cessation is difficult at best. Older drivers forced to stop driving will likely feel a lack of freedom and may suffer from depression.
1 .Write and sign a letter to Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) outlining specific concerns.
DVS will write the person and ask them to come in for an interview.
Based on the interview, the person can be requested to conduct a written and road test; submit a vision report; and/or submit a doctor's statement verifying that they are physically qualified to drive within 30 days of the interview.
If no concerns arise during the interview — if the driver passes a road quiz and appears to be physically fine — they may not be required to do anything further to continue to drive.
If the person does not submit the requested statements or their vision/physical report is unsatisfactory, their driver's license can be cancelled.
If the person is unable to pass the tests within the required time, their driver's license is cancelled.
2. Law enforcement officers also can send a request for review to DVS if they identify a driver who they believe should either re-test or be checked by a doctor.
3. Talk to a family member's physician to see if the doctor has noticed the same problems. If so, ask the doctor to submit a request for a written/road test to DVS. If the physician sees the person is not physically qualified to drive, the doctor can notify the department to that effect and DVS can cancel the driver's privileges.
4. DVS can allow the person to keep driving with increased limitations such as roadway speed, daylight only, certain times of the day or within a set limit of miles from his or her home. They can also require follow-up doctors exams.

God day!
First of all I want to say: I ll pay for your work.
Second thing is: English is not my main language, I hope everone understand me.
I want to have a special model created in eclipse with EMF, GMF, Eugena etc. (don´t matter how).
Behind this model there should be some functions, if possible.
I ll explain more specific, if you are interested.
Send me a Email if you are interested:
Your profile should be:
-very good knowledge about EMF/GMF
-knowledge about statecharts and automata
-good english knowledge (because of an english text you have to read)
-knowledge of Eugenia and other helping tool could be positive, but you don´t have to use them
For a good programer, this work could be a piece of cake and can be done in a few hours, I think.
I would do it myself, but my GMF skills are not very good and I don´t have the time to improve them more.

Biomedical Electronics Technician: Education Requirements & Career Info
Learn about the education and preparation needed to become a biomedical electronics technician. Get a quick view of the requirements as well as details about degree programs, job duties and certification to find out if this is the career for you.
Essential Information
Biomedical electronics technicians test, repair and maintain medical equipment for medical suppliers and medical service centers. An associate's degree in this field is generally required. Biomedical electronics technicians can receive additional specialized training on advanced equipment, and must update their knowledge periodically. An optional certification is also available.
|Required Education
|Associate's degree
|Projected Job Growth
|30% between 2012 and 2022 for medical equipment repairers*
|Median Income (2013)
|$44,180 for all medical equipment repairers*
Source: *U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
Educational Requirements for Biomedical Electronics Technicians
The most common educational requirement for biomedical electronics technicians is an associate's degree in biomedical technology from a community, vocational or junior college. Technicians who work with more complex biomedical equipment may be required to hold a bachelor's degree.
Coursework in biomedical technology programs can include bioengineering, instrumentation systems, signal processing and microprocessors. Programs typically include hands-on training using current biomedical machines and biomedical computer software.
A graduate of one of these programs can further their education in a specialized field, such as radiographic and fluoroscopic x-ray technology, nuclear medicine technology and medical imaging. Biomedical equipment manufacturers may also offer workshops or classes for those interested in specializing in a specific type of equipment.
Career Information
According to the 2013 data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the largest employer of medical equipment repairers is the professional and commercial and supplies merchant wholesalers industry (www.bls.gov). The employment of medical equipment repairers was expected to rise by 30% during the 2012-2022 decade. This growth was attributed to the growing demand for healthcare services due to an aging population and to more healthcare facilities adding sophisticated medical equipment.
The BLS reported that the 2013 median annual income for this field was $44,180. Technicians who worked for the federal government tended to earn the highest average salaries at $56,360 a year, while those that worked at consumer goods rental companies had a significantly lower average salary of $34,530.
Many biomedical electronics technicians seek advancement opportunities by becoming certified by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). Requirements for certification applicants include graduation from an accredited biomedical or electronics technology program and 2-3 years of work experience or 4 years of experience working with biomedical machinery (www.aami.org).

It's Black Friday and there may be one little store you forgot to include in your shopping plans - the App Store! A plethora of apps are having huge sales this weekend, and we have gathered a few of our favorites that you do not want to miss.

IM+, the popular instant messaging app for iPhone and iPad, has updated to 5.0 and bring a new feature called Neighbors. With Neighbors, you can locate your friends on a map and chat with people nearby.
Neighbors offers a new dimension of communication in IM+ by providing users the opportunity
to find new real life connections and friends with common interests. When signed in, users of Neighbors IM+ will be able to locate friends on the map, chat with local friends as well as initiate conversations with other people who are located nearby.

How do you IM on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad? We recently asked what Twitter app you used most and got tons of feedback, including that many of you prefer IM to Twitter, or don't use Twitter at all. Fine then! Ally has already posted up her top 5 IM/instant messenger apps for iPhone but we want to know more!
Interested in knowing which are the best, most must-have instant messenger (IM) apps for your iPhone? Eager to get you chat on via AIM/MobileMe, MSN/Windows Live, Yahoo!, GoogleTalk, Facebook, MySpace, and/or Jabber but need to know which client supports what and how well? Well read on for TiPb's top 5 most recommended IM/instant messenger clients for iPhone!
Verbs for iPhone is a gorgeous new IM client that just recently hit the app store. It supports GTalk and AIM/MobileMe at the moment. I'm hoping support for more clients like Facebook chat and MSN are added in an update. What really got me hooked on Verbs is the beautiful interface. It looks like an app Apple would build natively into iOS.
Another feature I really like is the fact that it supports Cloud and Droplr file transfer services. I personally love Droplr and use it exclusively for sharing images and video. I chose it as my Pick of the Week a few weeks back. This is an added bonus for me.
I would like to see full push implemented as it currently only supports local notifications. This means you'll receive notifications only if the app is running or multitasking. If you close it from the multitasking tray, you won't receive notifications any longer. Not a huge issue for some, but may be a big one for others. If you're looking for a decent IM client that comes at a fair price, make sure you give Verbs a try and let us know what you think!
[$2.99 - iTunes Link]
The TiPb forums are naturally a great place to talk, commiserate, celebrate, get help, and offer advice to your fellow iPhone users. In order to create a new thread of your own or reply to any of the existing threads, you must be a registered member. Becoming a member is easy and free so if you haven't already, head on over and register now!
Skype recently released an update to support video calls via 3G. Have you used this feature and do you think it spells doom for Apple's FaceTime?
It seems Microsoft is almost ready to release their popular IM client, Windows Live Messenger for the iPhone and iPod touch. The app is said to arrive this June and will contain photo sharing, chat, and a social stream - which looks to include a Facebook stream and possibly a Twitter stream as well.
The second major release following Bing foince the software giant is now beginning to warm up the the iPhone platform perhaps Microsoft will get the ball rolling on Office in the not so distant future.
Screen shots after the break!
While I'm busy editing all the GDC 2010 gaming video we just shot, we're putting up our second to last look at Macworld 2010. Here Rene and Leanna talk with Alexander Ostroysky, Customer Care at Shape Services about Business Card Reader for iPhone, IM+, and their other apps.
Watch along after the break, and let us know what you think!
It's been a long time coming, but instant messaging client, Meebo, [iTunes Link - Free] has finally made it into the App Store. The last time TiPb mentioned Meebo was back in 2008 when Chad reviewed their web app. Since then, several other IM apps have become popular. What does Meembo have to offer?
We've been using Meebo for about a week now and it is a very good effort for a 1.0 release. You can really tell the app was optimized for speed, simplicity, and performance as claimed. While the UI could use a little work, it does have all of the bells and whistles imaginable to compete with with the current crop of IM client top contenders.
Screenshots after the break!
BeejiveIM [iTunes Link - $9.99] has always been one of TiPb's favorite IM clients and it continues to impress with the release of version 3.2. This application is arguably one of the finest IM clients currently available for the iPhone and iPod touch and with the following enhancements it's hard for anyone to dispute.

Perfect for oily break out prone skin. I have fought with acne my whole life and have oily skin and I am constantly finding that while many don't make my break outs worse, they do seem to clog my pores. This foundation seems to actually help me skin and I don't get any clogged pores from it. It lasts all day and I like the coverage. Clinque formerly made this product and I tried it and it was too thick, but they have reformulated it and now I love it. I LOVE this foundation and what it does for my skin. I have used just about every oil free foundation out there, even Chanel and if you are break out prone this is the best.

I've been using this for a good year now it's perfect in the summer time if you have very oily skin because it does have somewhat of a drying affect I can't say that it has helped or prevented break outs but I can say it has not caused them love this line

I mostly like this, but would like something better. It has pretty good medium coverage, blends pretty well, and doesn't make me break out. But on the other hand, it hasn't improved my acne, is a bit dry, and also a wee bit yellow for my skin. Decent, in other words, and I've been relying on it lately, but I'm still on the hunt for something a little less drying.

This is a great foundation. If you have acne and scarring, TRY THIS!!!
I would especially recommend it for oily skin. (But if your skin is dry, moisturize and you'll be fine. My skin is dry but I don't have a problem with it if i moisturize). It goes on nicely (dries a little fast - probably due to the salicylic acid), has medium-heavy coverage and lasts a long time. It dries to a matte finish and looks pretty nice on my skin.
The coverage is VERY build-able so it covers acne and scars VERY well! I build the coverage up with a beauty blender, concentrating more on my acne scars. Sometimes it helps to let the first layer sit for a minute and then continue with a second layer. Then I used Mac Studio Fix powder foundation and my face is flawless. It's seriously a life saver. I don't use concealer when I wear this foundation, I just don't need to.
As far as acne goes, I don't think it makes a huge difference for my acne. Maybe a little bit. It definitely doesn't make it worse, which is a big plus, and i feel comfortable using this directly on my acne.
The packaging is hygienic and is nice for travelling because its small, plastic and light.

I love this makeup! It gives me the confidence I need to walk out of my house every day! Coupled with concealer, it is very effective at covering blemishes, especially post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation. It doesn't look cakey or greasy. I can leave it on for 12 hours with minimal re-application. It does not cause me to break out, nor does it cause my skin to become dry. I was worried about the dryness because of the salicylic acid in it but even in winter it hasn't been an issue. I will definitely be purchasing this make-up again for as long as I have acne.

I bought this foundation because I break out a lot now in my 30s. It' leaves my skin flawless but doesn't give you full coverage. It has help me with my acne I haven't broken out a lot anymore. The only thing I hate is that it doesn't have SPF , but other than that I like this foundation. It's too expensive but I guess I'll do anything to keep my acne away lol

I brought this product 6 months ago and am now runnin out. I will not be purchasing more. The formula is great, with medium-full coverage. It goes on your skin creamy and stays put, for the most part. This didn't cause me to breakout, but I have an extremely oily T-zone, and there wasn't any makeup left there at the end of the day. This is a squeeze bottle, which is annoying and I often got way to much even even though I was careful about it. Also, they don't have a wide variety of fair colors, so I had to get a bit of tan first before the lightest color matched me. If you have senstive skin, its worth the price. If not, then I would look elsewhere.

For those of you with acne prone skin, I do not recommend this at all! Honestly, Please do not use this foundation. I have tried everything within the last few years to combat my cystic acne from cleansers to changing my diet completely and nothing was working...until I really finally came to the conclusion that in changing everything else in my diet and skincare regime, only this product was a constant. I was so sure that it was working. It looked great, covers the red spots...I was afraid to change and breakout. Until I was at a health food store and tried a more natural brand called Ecco Bella last September and to my unbelievable surprise, I have not had cystic acne since! I went from my usual horrific daily painful breakouts to waking up not worrying about it AT ALL anymore. I just hope I can help at lease one girl struggling with acne and scarring avoid it all by going all natural and purchasing something different....it's the additives in the commercial brands that cause acne. This product is the same as the rest of the junk like Cover Girl but call it acne helping because it has Salicylic acid in it. OMG, I was so stupid and wish to God I knew this years ago. Seriously, girls, don't but this if you are acne prone. GO Natural with brand like Ecco Bella and Larenim (really nice powder foundation that is made of nothing but zinc and looks great).

I recently started using this foundation again and I can't recall why it wasn't higher up on my list. This foundation is long-wearing especially on my oily skin and covers most redness very well. For actual raised acne spots I use the Estee Lauder Double Wear Maximum Coverage foundation as a spot concealer, but this foundation does the job for the typical redness. I can't say whether it clears acne though. The packaging is sanitary and the price is on the lower side for department store. I guess my only qualm is that Clinique's foundations lean pink and I have a yellow undertone. I usually correct this with a drop of Coastal Scent's yellow corrector.

When I bought this product I was excited to use it. Lots of people recommended it to me, since I have acne and oily skin. The first day I tried the makeup it was already starting to work on my acne, which is amazing! Ever since i've used this product i have barely have any blemishes or little zits on my face for two whole months! It actually does help with your acne, and if primer is not applied it doesn't damage your skin, but it does get a little runny after a couple hours. It also makes your skin dry if are using other acne products other than clinique. I use two or three facial products from the acne solutions line, but still have dry skin because I don't moisturize sometimes at night when i'm really tired. On the back of the box the label warns you about using other acne products and this liquid makeup because it will cause dry skin. That's good that clinique is knows the problem, and are probably working on it. I like this product, and i would recommend it to others, and also buy it again. The price for this is pretty good, but maybe just a tad pricey. The quality is high, which makes it expensive, and after you try the product you'll realize( depending on your results) that it was worth every penny.
At a recent party i wore the liquid makeup and covered my whole face. I had a few blemishes on my forehead from threading my eyebrows. The part was 6 hours long, and after taking out my makeup the blemishes and small zits were almost gone and had gotten really small in that amount of time! This products is amazing, you should try it out!

I agree that the beginning of 2014 is a very long shot. That said, I think a mid-late 2014 call up is very much in the cards if he hits the ground running in 2013.

I heard no less than 20 people on here say Castro was "not ready." Most talent evaluators actually rate Baez's bat potentially on par with Castro's, plus Baez has decent power potential and a better glove. If the kid tears *** through July in the minors, um, why not? Don't give me the service time argument when you consider we have NOTHING at 3b organizationally beyond him and we're not spending big money in FA to fill 3b anytime soon.

Pune: Pune FC suffered their first AFC Cup defeat going down 1-3 to Tampines Rovers FC in a Group-H Round 3 encounter at the Jalan Besar Stadium in Singapore on Wednesday.
Attacker Riga Mustapha (15th minute) gave Pune FC the lead with a penalty kick conversion before striker Miljan Mrdakovic (38th) pulled the hosts level in the first half.
Second half strikes from medio Closa Gonzalez (61st) and Mrdakovic (69th) handed Tampines Rovers all three points.
With this loss, Pune FC slipped down to fourth place in Group-H behind leaders Kitchee SC (7 pts), Nay Pyi Taw FC (4 pts) and Tampines Rovers (3 pts) midway through the group-stage.
Coach Mike Snoei made four changes in the lineup handing starts to Mirjan Pavlovic, Anthony D'Souza, Mumtaz Akhtar and Gurjinder Kumar in place of Arata Izumi, Dhanpal Ganesh, Srikanth Ramu and Fanai Lalrempuia.
After soaking pressure in the opening exchanges, Pune FC took the lead at the quarter-hour mark.
As Pavlovic jumped to head a high rising ball inside the box, Tampines goalkeeper Hyrulnizam Juma'at fumbled and continued to head out hoping to control. In doing so, he ended up pulling down Pavlovic and the referee pointed to the spot.
Riga stepped up and coolly converted from the spot sending Hyrulnizam the wrong way while slotting home at the bottom left corner.
At the other end, the hosts tried to push up and had a couple of close-range attempts from Mrdakovic go wide.

Citizen Scientists Spot Planet Orbiting Two Stars
Lee Rannals for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
A team of international astronomers, along with Planethunters.org volunteers, found the first reported case of a planet orbiting twin suns that in turn is orbited by a second distant pair of stars.
Researchers said that only six planets are known to orbit two stars, and none of these are orbited by distant stellar companions.
"Circumbinary planets are the extremes of planet formation," said Meg Schwamb of Yale University and lead author of a paper presented Oct. 15 at the annual meeting of the Division for Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society in Reno, Nevada. "The discovery of these systems is forcing us to go back to the drawing board to understand how such planets can assemble and evolve in these dynamically challenging environments."
The planet was first identified by citizen scientists participating in Planet Hunters, which is a Yale-led program that asks for the public's help to review astronomical data from NASA's Kepler spacecraft.
The volunteers first spotted faint dips in light caused by the planet as it passed in front of its parent stars.
"Planet Hunters is a symbiotic project, pairing the discovery power of the people with follow-up by a team of astronomers," said Debra Fischer, a professor of astronomy at Yale and planet expert who helped launch Planet Hunters in 2010. "This unique system might have been entirely missed if not for the sharp eyes of the public."
PH1 is a gas giant with a radius about 6.2 times that of Earth, and it orbits outside the 20-day orbit of a pair of eclipsing stars that are 1.5 and 0.41 times the mass of the Sun.
The planet revolves around its host stars about every 138 days at about 1,000 times the distance of the Earth and the Sun.
"The thousands of people who are involved with Planet Hunters are performing a valuable service," coauthor Jerome Orosz, an associate professor of astronomy at San Diego State University, said in a press release. "Many of the automated techniques used to find interesting features in the Kepler data don't always work as efficiently as we would like. The hard work of the Planet Hunters helps ensure that important discoveries are not falling through the cracks."
Robert Gagliano, one of the volunteers, said he was ecstatic to spot a small dip in the eclipsing binary star's light curve from the Kepler telescope.
Kian Jek of San Francisco, California, another volunteer, said it astonishes him how people are able to identify planets from so far away.
"It still continues to astonish me how we can detect, let alone glean so much information, about another planet thousands of light-years away just by studying the light from its parent star," Jek said.

Off in the distance, well beyond the planet orbit, resides a second pair of stars bound to the planetary system. Image Credit: Haven Giguere/Yale.

LEOMINSTER — Sheriff Lew Evangelidis got an assist from New England Revolution soccer star Diego Fagundez delivering over 1,000 coats to the Spanish American Center Thursday.
"It's an honor to do this," Evangelidis said. "It's a wonderful time for all of us to give back a little bit."
Evangelidis made eight stops throughout Worcester County delivering coats.
He started in Gardner then made stops at the Cleghorn Neighborhood Center and Hope Center in Fitchburg before arriving in Leominster.
Evangelidis is scheduled to continue his deliveries in Worcester and Southbridge today.
Fagundez made a special trip to help deliver the coats to Leominster.
A black van pulled up to the center and Fagundez joined a line of volunteers hauling large black plastic bags filled with coats inside.
The Reserve Deputy Sheriff's Association coordinates collection of the coats for the disadvantaged. The coats are new and gently used.
Wachusett Mountain Ski Area jump-started this year's collection by donating 1,000, said Kimberly Roy, external-affairs director for Evangelidis' office.
Fagundez who traveled with his father to Washington, wore a Leominster soccer hoodie. He recently completed his high-school coursework and will graduate with his Leominster High School classmates in the spring, and jumped at the opportunity to help deliver the coats.
"I said of course, it's a good cause," he said. "It's a nice thing to do and since it's my hometown I wanted to do it."
The center's executive director, Neddy Latimer, and advocate Nicolas Formaggia said there is a strong need for the coats.
"You'd be surprised there are so many people who don't have what they need," Latimer said.
In years past, people who needed the coats were invited to the delivery party but it created chaos so this year the center is collecting requests and sorting the coats before handing them out.
"We can make a more fair distribution," Formaggia said.
Evangelidis started by delivering 300 coats in Gardner then 300 at each at Cleghorn Neighborhood Center and Hope Center in Fitchburg.
"I hope people know these are nice, clean coats, they aren't just in a bag," Evangelidis said.
Wachusett Mountain, Dr. D'Ambrosio Eye Care, the New England Revolution and Gardner Museum collected coats and jackets for the program, as well as individual donors.
"I wanted to say thank you from us," Latimer.

Worcester County Sheriff Lewis Evangelidis, center, looks on as a child gets his eyes scanned as part of the new Child Project now offered by the Worcester County Sheriff's Office.
The Worcester County Sheriff's Department is now using iris scanning technology in conjunction with a national database that law enforcement officials use to quickly locate and identify lost or missing children.
Sheriff Lewis G. Evangelidis this weekend announced that his office has brought the Children's Identification and Location Database (CHILD) Project to Worcester County.
The CHILD Project, created by both the Nation's Missing Children Organization and National Center for Missing Adults, allows law enforcement officials throughout the country to locate and identify children using a biometric recognition system.
Iris scanning captures and digitally encodes an image of an iris, located in the eye. According to Evangelidis, the iris is 10 times more identifiable than a fingerprint. And though a person's appearance will change with age, he said, the iris remains the same.
"Fingerprinting was a great system for many, many years," Evangelidis said. "But now we have the next generation of technology in biometrics."
Enrollment is now available through the Worcester County Sheriff's office. Evangelidis plans to bring his iris scan program to schools, public events, law enforcement events and community centers. Parent consent is required. And the department's community outreach officials conduct the scanning.
The iris scanner takes a simple digital photograph of a child's irises. That image is then analyzed; and code is created and compared to others in the database. If a match isn't found, the iris data is linked with the demographic information and stored at the national registry until the child turns 18.
More than 1,300 sheriff offices nationwide participate in the CHILD Project, Evangelidis said. Every day in the United States, he said, more than 2,000 children are reported missing, while a child is reported as abducted every 40 seconds.
"As sheriff," he said, "I want to make this technology available to the families of Worcester County. I can not think of anything more important than protecting and keeping our children safe."
The department purchased an iris scanner after Evangelidis took office in January 2011 and has offered the technology for seniors, especially those with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia who may wander off, through its Triad Program.

HOLDEN — As part of the first Holden Winter Festival Saturday, Sheriff Lewis Evangelidis rolled out The Child Project to Worcester County.
Operated by the Nation's Missing Children Organization and Center for Missing Adults in Phoenix, The Child Project uses digital photography to scan a child's iris, compares it to the data already stored in a national database and then stores it in the database with the child's information.
There are more than 1,300 sheriff's offices who are using The Child Project, which Sheriff Evangelidis likened to child fingerprinting programs that became popular in the area after Molly Bish disappeared from Comins Pond in Warren.
"It's 10 times more accurate than a fingerprint," Sheriff Evangelidis said. "And unlike fingerprints, the iris doesn't change over time."
While fingerprinting requires some effort to get an accurate print, the iris scan is done in a few seconds without the mess.
Sheriff Evangelidis said he purchased the iris scanner soon after his election as sheriff in 2010. He initially used the iris scanner with the elderly, in order to protect those with Alzheimer's disease or dementia who may wander off.
Sheriff Evangelidis said that he chose the Holden Winter Festival to launch The Child Project because he wanted to be sure that he selected a place where parents could give their consent to the scan.
"As a father of two children, I will always remember registering my children with fingerprint identification kits," he said. Today, with new advances in technology, there is now a more accurate way to identify a child. With iris scan technology we now have positive identification in the blink of an eye that is ten times more identifiable than a fingerprint."
Approximately 120 children had their irises scanned at the Winter Festival.
Sheriff Evangelidis said that he plans to make the iris scanner available at public and special events, as well as through social service agencies and community centers.
"I cannot think of anything more important than protecting and keeping our children safe," he said

Why would someone be stupid enough to put a turbo diesel on a sailboat? It isn't like a sailboat is really the proper use environment for a turbo diesel. You really need to talk to a good diesel mechanic. If you're not going to use the turbo, you need to convert the engine back to a non-turbo setup IMHO.

More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – Although arresting its members in order to muster quorum is an option, lawmakers on Monday saw no need for the House of Representatives to resort to such a move just yet.
Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr. himself said they would not resort to such a move in order to get lawmakers to show up during session. He said that he felt that last week's focus on the lack of quorum by the media was enough to motivate those within their ranks to attend session.
Cibac Partylist Representative Sherwin Tugna, who has earlier said that legislators who have consistently been skipping work at the House of Representatives can be ordered arrested, said that its leadership has other "less drastic ways to be able to persuade and subtly compel colleagues to attend plenary session."
Marikina Representative Miro Quimbo said, "The idea of arresting solons to compel attendance is not ideal. We should appeal to the sense of country and duty of the members of Congress. We've passed difficult and controversial measures in the last two years, so kaya namin ito (we can do this),"
While he also acknowledged that the House leadership has an option to compel its members to attend session, Albay Representative Edcel Lagman said, "tingnan natin, baka hindi na kailangan pwersahin. (Let's see. Maybe there is no need to force them)."
Lagman is the main proponent of House Bill 4244 known as Reproductive Health bill, one of the key proposed measures pending at the House of Representatives. Lack of quorum has brought developments on the bill to a halt, causing tension among legislators.
Pangasinan Representative Kimi Cojuangco claimed for instance that House majority leader Neptali Gonzales II supposedly said that the RH bill has already died in the 15th Congress.
But Lagman said he was not at all bothered by it, saying that Gonzales' statement could just have been "taken out of context."
He said the period of amendments on the bill would go by swiftly if they would do it by substitution.
If his colleagues would agree to adopt the substitute bill earlier crafted and circulated by pro-RH solons, then Lagman said, "Madali na lang ito."
He said the period of amendments would take longer if they would agree on doing individual amendments for HB 4244.
Lawmakers backing the RH Bill want it approved on second reading before they go on Christmas break on December 22.

Debris yet to be cleared from building, even as owner awaits compensation
Hyderabad: For two weeks now, L. Ramesh has not had a good night's sleep. The owner of the ill-fated building, where one of Navy's Sagar Pawan aircraft crashed on March 3, has been running from pillar to post to get officials to start removing debris from the site.
The incident continues to haunt him as ever, since his own building has been off limits to him. He and his family have been living with his relatives, returning to the house once in a while to pick up clothes and other essentials. "It's been nearly a fortnight and no one is able to tell me when I can take possession of my house or when the investigations will be completed. I have approached every person in power for help. Yet there has been no trace of any assistance or compensation from any department. I hope they do something soon," bemoans Mr. Ramesh.
Foul smell
The 60-year-old employee is also not sure if he can continue to live in the house once investigations are completed or whether he will have to demolish the entire structure. With remains of the craft still buried under the debris, residents nearby have been complaining of foul smell, suspecting some charred remains of the pilots killed could be present at the site.
"We have to put up with this nauseating reek and many vegetable vendors have been avoiding coming here," complains a resident. To add to Mr. Ramesh's misery, the Secunderabad Cantonment Board (SCB) has confirmed that the building was an unauthorised construction.
SCB Chief Executive Officer C. Ravindra says that cleaning operations can only be taken up after the Navy's clearance. He points out that a three-member Board of Inquiry (BOI) constituted to conduct a detailed investigation is yet to submit its report. "We will start our work only after we get the BOI report," he adds. For Mr. Ramesh, it looks like a long wait.

Arnold Galvan purchased this house in 2006
The estate is just minutes to downtown Palm Springs and is an exclusive private estate!
I had my eye on this location even before I got engaged and I couldn't be more happy to have picked this place to have our wedding. It's magical. The home is amazing and the scenery is absolutely breathtaking. Arnold and his staff were such a pleasure to work with. My guests could not stop talking about how amazing the evening was, and I am so thankful to Arnold for that. I would recommend this house a million times... and would LOVE to do it all over again! :)
This was our second rental in Palm Springs, and what a treat! We had people ranging in ages from 13 to 84, and everyone had a great time! We spent most of our time in the amazing backyard, just an extraordinary pool and playground that includes a full basketball court, volley ball court, fire pit, outdoor wrap-around bar that accommodates many people. The pool and attached spa is amazing, with a walk-in/wade in end that my 84 year old mother especially appreciated. Quote from my mom "This is the best pool in the world"!
The inside of the house complements the outside with bedrooms that feature luxurious linens, good mattresses, an amazing kitchen (Sub-Zero refrigerator to die for), great appliances all around. The garage includes a ping pong table, foosball table, and a basketball arcade game my nephews thoroughly enjoyed.
Arnold, the owner, was very welcoming and responsive. Our only feedback for improvements would be to have a hair dryer in every bedroom, more towels, and some bigger bowls for salads, etc. which Arnold said he would update post haste.
I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to entertain a large family, or just to hang out in the backyard with a few friends.
My friends and I stayed at this beautiful home this past weekend as a "get away from LA" trip. It was absolutely perfect. Pool, jacuzzi, fire pit, basketball, volleyball, ping pong, putting green, outdoor bar...everything you could ask for in a group get away. We never left the house Saturday and are already planning a trip back in a few months. Arnold and his staff are so friendly and accommodating and only made the trip even better.
I've been 3 times and it has been terrific on every occasion. The basketball court, pool, spa, volleyball court, etc. are built to amazing specs and it's impossible to be bored. Thanks again.
From the start, our communication and interaction with Arnold was extremely professional. He was very quick on responding to any of our questions. Once we arrived his staff was equal to the task.
Now, about the property, all we can say is that it is fabulous!! We have travelled to many different parts of the world and this property has to be in the top two or three.
We had a small family reunion (eight adults) so we needed a place that would allow for family time along with enough room to provide each other space when required. It was perfect. Exactly what we needed.
The home layout could not have been better and the backyard with its 60 foot saltwater pool made for great times all throughout the day.
We LOVED the place!!!
This property is Perfect on the inside and out! The plush modern decor along with the all inclusive amenities inside the house provide you with all the comforts of home and more. We absolutely loved having a sound system throughout the house and outside too! The backyard is beautifully landscaped! The pool has a built in jacuzzi with waterfall. An amazing outside bar, basketball court, volleyball court, and putting area. I had an Amazing time with family and friends. My friends are still talking about how beautiful the property was and how much fun they had. I had the best 40th birthday weekend ever! The Galvan Estate was the perfect setting for my milestone Birthday Party!! I will definitely be back! You will not be disappointed.
The property is approx. ten minutes from the PS International Airport and only five minutes from downtown Palm Springs.

He currently has more home runs that Adam Dunn right now, but -- no offense -- I'm really hoping that changes very soon. I can't continue to start El Caballo at 1B and feel good about it (although I suppose it could actually be worse -- I could've paid for the non-services of Kendrys Morales).

An Israeli Hip-Hop Playlist
A companion to our features on Israeli hip-hop
The Israeli hip hop scene, which we cover today in a piece and a podcast, is exploding.
Here are seven of the better tracks:
Nechi Nech, "Boom Shaka Lak":
The song's key line says it all: "I like my rap New York style, you'd think I grew up in Flatbush or in Crown Heights." The leading light of the new cadre of MCs, Nechi Nech is just as good as anyone coming out of Brooklyn or anywhere else.
Nechi Nech, "Godzilla":
Sampling Nigel Ha'admor, Israel's first rapper, Nechi proves his genius by rhyming hava nagilah and Michael Jackson's thriller.
Peled and Nechi Nech, "6 Foot 7 Style":
Was there ever a greater diss then "your flow has no tehini sauce, it's dry"? Is there a better Lil' Wayne tribute?
Z.K. featuring Nechi Nech, "Shaolin":
The Wu Tang's favorite kung fu school inspires rappers from Staten Island to Petach Tikva.
Hadag Nachash, Ortega, and the P.R. Troopers, "Hitting It":
Many of Israel's most talented contemporary MCs, conveniently gathered on one stage.
Produx, "Ichiban":
A chubby Ashkenazi kid, two Ethiopian dudes, and a producer whose family fled Teheran and who grew up on traditional Persian music got together, sampled Fiddler on the Roof, and made one of the greatest hip hop albums in Israel's history.
Lukach, "Brandon Walsh":
Mad, frantic, intensely creative, fluent in three languages and four cultures, and named after a character from Beverly Hills, 90210. Behold Lukach, "the fastest man who ever weighed a ton."

NORFOLK -- Norfolk police are seeking the public's assistance in identifying three robbery suspects.
The robbery occurred on Jan. 23 outside a business in the 9300 block of Chesapeake Boulevard, Norfolk police said. An adult male was walking when he was approached by three unknown black male suspects.
The suspects assaulted the victim, took his wallet and then fled on foot in the direction of East Leichester Street. Police say the suspects may have fled in a light color four-door sedan.
Anyone who can identify the suspects, or has information regarding the incident, is asked to contact the Norfolk Robbery Squad, or the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
