Madrid - Rafael Nadal dropped his first set of the week but recovered to record a stirring 4-6, 6-2, 6-2 defeat of fellow Spaniard Nicolas Almagro to reach his second successive Madrid Masters final here on Saturday.
Roger Federer was playing later against Spain's David Ferrer with the Swiss trying to set up a repeat of the final which he won at the Caja Magica over Nadal in 2009.
That clay victory for Federer was just the confidence booster the Swiss required to propel him to his first-ever French Open title three weeks later at Roland Garros.
Nadal stands one victory away from his third Masters 1000 crown of the season after winning Monte Carlo and Rome. Another title at the elite ATP level would give him a record 18 for his career, one more than Andre Agassi or Federer.
The event marked the third time in three spring tournaments that a trio of Spaniards have dominated Masters 1000 semi-finals after Monte Carlo and Rome.
Nadal improved to 14-0 on clay this season and will now return to world number two behind Federer by virtue of reaching the final.
Nadal rallied after dropping his serve three times in the opening set against Almagro, a winner this week over French Open finalist Robin Soderling, Nadal's Paris conqueror a year ago in the fourth round.
The second seed from Mallorca powered through the second set in typical style and went up a break in the third to drain the life out of Almagro's challenge.
Nadal raced away to 4-1 in the deciding set and broke for victory in the final game as Almagro saved a match point before going down in two and a quarter hours.
Nadal earned his sixth victory without defeat against Almagro, the world number 35 whose last title came on clay in 2009 in Mexico.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
With his lumpy face, Bronx accent, and streetwise hitch, Ron Galella comes on like a fringe player in some '70s New York B-movie—which, in reality, is similar to how the notorious paparazzo functioned during that decade and beyond, skulking along the margins to cast light upon stars like Burton and Brando, the latter even famously breaking his jaw with a sucker punch. Leon Gast's documentary portrait has a freewheeling charm that perfectly matches its subject, shifting focus between high-spirited testimonials, pocket cultural histories, blow-by-blow eyewitness accounts, and digressions on the aging photographer's extensive collection of rabbits. His recklessness legitimized by First Amendment resolve, his egotism undaunted despite daily degradations (he's at once a sniper and ambulance-chaser), Galella's unquestioned pursuit of candid snapshots produced something like folk art and, even better, an unintended cultural critique—he exemplified and denuded celebrity worship with each shutter click. As Gast (When We Were Kings) takes time to demonstrate, nowhere was this more apparent than in his professional stalking of Jackie Onassis. Though his aggressive tactics eventually led to a court case that set precedents for privacy law, Galella's photos of the former First Lady reveal a strangely intimate symbiosis between parasite and host. Now a semi-retired, semi-rehabilitated 79-year-old coasting on his own minor celebrity, in his prime Galella was the necessary class-collapsing medium between millionaires and the National Enquirer–reading masses, allowing each to gain access to and complete the other.

Since the late 19th century, scientists have speculated about what life might look like beyond the Earth. Since carbon-based life-forms here on Earth represent life as we know it, what about critters based on different chemistries? For example, if living things evolved on other worlds based on silicon, ammonia, boron, or nitrogen-alien chemistries suggested by respected space researchers-would we even recognize them as living organisms?
In the 1890s, German astrophysicist Julius Scheiner was the first person to imagine silicon as the basis for extraterrestrial organisms. Such creatures, he speculated, might appear as animated crystals to human eyes. They might also appear as loosely spun threads, like living fiberglass, woven together within a delicate architecture.
In 1893, chemist James Emerson Reynolds gave an unusual lecture at a meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. The lecture was a review of evidence he found that showed that silicon compounds-being resistant to high temperatures-could serve as the basis for life on broiling planets that would quickly destroy Earth-based life.
Science fiction writer H. G. Wells dabbled in the silicon-life idea, too. Also joining Scheiner and Reynolds in the 1890s-a decade fertile in both scientific and sci-fi speculations about exobiology-Wells wrote his classic alien invasion tale "The War of the Worlds".
The year before Wells penned the classic that would inspire Orson Welles' Halloween 1938 radio broadcast and several movies, he wrote a short, science-fact article for the Saturday Review about what he termed "another basis for life".
According to Wells, "One is startled towards fantastic imaginings by such a suggestion: visions of silicon-aluminum organisms. Why not silicon-aluminum men at once? Wandering through an atmosphere of gaseous sulphur, let us say, by the shores of a sea of liquid iron some thousand degrees or so above the temperature of a blast furnace..."

About the DSO's revived organ recital series
The Lay Family Organ in the Meyerson Symphony Center, inaugurated in 1992, revolutionized thinking about concert-hall organs. After a succession of instruments elsewhere that were too lean and mean to compete with the massiveness of orchestral sound, the Meyerson organ, by the Massachusetts firm of C.B. Fisk, had an unprecedented beefiness and force that put it on equal footing with the orchestra. Its success sparked a worldwide explosion of heftier concert-hall instruments.
After a dozen years when recitals on the Meyerson organ were few and far between, it was good to learn that the Dallas Symphony Orchestra was reviving a recital series, with three performers scheduled between this Saturday and June 6. When presented the list of performers, though, I confess that my heart sank.
Opening the series on Saturday is Cameron Carpenter, who relishes his persona as the bad boy of the organ world. He favors a variety of quasi-punk looks, and has been openly contemptuous of the church (the main patron of the organ and its music) and even pipe organs. He now mainly plays on a super-duper digital "organ."
His technical brilliance is phenomenal, his taste controversial. He has no interest in playing organ music as its composers intended, subjecting it instead to often kaleidoscopic shifts of sounds and even tempos. It will be interesting to see what he does with the mostly Bach program announced for Saturday.
If you take him as performance art, there's entertainment value to what he does. As for deeper musical satisfactions, my two experiences of seeing and hearing him–most recently in a 2008 recital at the Meyerson–have left me frustrated.
Next up, on April 25, is Dutch organist Leo van Doeselaar. DSO music director Jaap van Zweden, who knows him as organist of the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, proposed him for the series. The little I've heard on recordings suggests he's an accomplished player, but he's completely unknown in the U.S.
Finally, on June 6, comes Paul Jacobs, who has performed several times in the area in recent years. He's another brilliant player, but another one who has no use for historical performance practices. His appointment as head of the organ department at the Juilliard School in New York raised many an eyebrow in the organ world.
"Who picked these people?" I asked DSO president/CEO Jonathan Martin.
It was, Martin responded, a combination of his input with music director Jaap van Zweden's suggestion of van Doeselaar and recommendations from Gregg Gleasner, a former artistic administrator of the San Francisco Symphony.
Asked if he had consulted anyone in the organ world, Martin said, "I honestly don't remember what conversations were with others here in Dallas."
He didn't even make the most obvious gesture of asking Mary Preston, the DSO's resident organist, who has had a significant concert career of her own. This is bizarre.
I've long thought that the logical way to revive the organ recital series would be to feature the three winners of the Dallas International Organ Competition, sponsored by the DSO then canned in the early 2000s. Two of the winners are right here in Dallas, with significant followings of their own: James Diaz and Bradley Welch. Mary Preston is a brilliant player with her own following, too. There are other first-rate concert organists around here as well, not to mention plenty of others elsewhere under concert management.
One other point. Go to the DSO website wanting to buy a ticket for the organ series, and you'll see the word "organ" mentioned nowhere. The series is identified only as "Opus 100." That's the opus number of the Meyerson organ in the line of Fisk organs, but how many people know that? The Paul Jacobs date isn't even listed. Sheesh.
I've had too many surprises in performances not to approach every one with an open mind, and I will do so with these recitals. But I can't help thinking the series could have been assembled–and, for that matter, marketed–much more savvily.
"This is the beginning of a longer-term thing," Martin says. "I hope that we will be judged not just by one year, but by what we do in the coming years."

Megastars Amitabh Bachchan and Rajinikanth will come together in a most unexpected way at the upcoming Cannes International Film Festival in May.
While Amitabh will represent his first Hollywood film "The Great Gatsby" in Cannes, Rajinikanth will be unveiling the trailer of his new film "Kochadaiyaan" at the fest.
Murli Manohar, co-producer of the southern film, confirmed Rajinikanth's presence in Cannes at the same time as the Big B.
"It's a big moment in the history of Indian cinema. Rajiniji is as excited as a child about the way 'Kochadaiyaan' has turned out. Technique-wise it takes Indian cinema to another level altogether. Rajiniji has shown the rough cut of the film to his close friends. The other day, A.R. Rahman saw the rough cut and was blown away," said Manohar.
"Kochadaiyaan" will be finally completed July 15. The release date is to be decided by the end of May.
Apparently, Rajinikanth, 62, has been advised against long air travel. But he is in no mood to stop himself from making that long journey to Cannes, where the annual movie extravaganza begins May 15.
A source close to the project said: "He is adamant on going. He has become extremely frail. But whenever anyone mentions his delicate health to Rajiniji, he gives the example of Mr.Bachchan, who has braved the most serious illnesses and done exactly what he wanted and gone exactly where he wanted in his career."

Overview of content related to 'open source'
This page provides an overview of 2 articles related to 'open source', listing most recently updated content first. Note that filters may be applied to display a sub-set of articles in this category (see FAQs on filtering for usage tips). Select this link to remove all filters.
The term open source describes practices in production and development that promote access to the end product's source materials. Some consider open source a philosophy, others consider it a pragmatic methodology. Before the term open source became widely adopted, developers and producers used a variety of phrases to describe the concept; open source gained hold with the rise of the Internet, and the attendant need for massive retooling of the computing source code. Opening the source code enabled a self-enhancing diversity of production models, communication paths, and interactive communities. Subsequently, the new phrase "open-source software" was born to describe the environment that the new copyright, licensing, domain, and consumer issues created.

Ware, MA (July 26, 2012) - Heat exhaustion occurs with excessive exposure to hot weather. It can be worsened by exercise and high humidity. It is more likely to occur at the extremes of age (infants and older people). You may feel weak, dizzy, or worried. You also may have a headache or a fast heartbeat. You may get dehydrated and have very little urine.
If you think you may have heat exhaustion, get out of the heat quickly. Rest in a cool, shady place and drink plenty of water or sports drinks. You should avoid alcohol and caffeinated beverages, as these can worsen heat exhaustion and cause dehydration. If you do not feel better within 30 minutes, you should see a doctor. On rare occasions heat exhaustion can progress to heatstroke.
Heatstroke is rare but much more serious than heat exhaustion. People with heatstroke may seem confused. They may have seizures or go into a coma. Most people with heatstroke also have a fever. Heatstroke can happen when your body gets too hot, or it can happen after heat exhaustion.
If you think someone might have heatstroke, you should immediately get them to the nearest hospital. If available, cold water can be used to douse the person while emergency care is on the way; the evaporation of the water will speed cooling.
To avoid heat exhaustion and heatstroke don't exercise outside when it is hot and humid. If you have traveled to a place that is hotter than where you live, take a few days to acclimate to this new environment before you engage in heavy exercise. In hot weather, wear cool, light clothing and drink plenty of water. If you feel weak get to a cooler environment.
Get medical help immediately if you think you might have heatstroke. Be sure to tell the doctor caring for you if you are on any over the counter or prescription medications. There are some medicines can put you at a greater risk of heatstroke, some include:
• Allergy medicines
• Cough and cold medicines
• Blood pressure and heart medicines
• Diet pills
• Irritable bladder and irritable bowel medicines
• Laxatives
• Mental health medicines
• Seizure medicines (anticonvulsants)
• Thyroid pills
• Water pills
During the summer heat set a schedule, and plan activities that you can do either in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. If you can't change your schedule, make sure to drink water frequently, put on plenty of sunscreen and wear a hat during peak times when the sun is at its hottest.
Information about health exhaustion and heatstroke was brought to you by Dr. Morris Leibowitz and AmericanAcademyof Family Physicians. Dr. Leibowitz is oneof the board certified Emergency Physicians who proudly provides expert care in the Baystate Mary Lane Hospital Emergency Department. The Emergency Department is open 24 hours per day 7 days a week, providing urgent and emergent care for all medical, surgical and pediatric problems.

An inebriated man died after falling from the pedestrian overpass at the Kempe Gowda bus terminus Thursday night.
Upparpet police said Shanmugam (43), a resident of Laxmanpura near Seshadripuram, was sitting on the overpass around 9.30 p.m. after having one drink too many, and keeled over.
When he landed on the road below, passersby had the presence of mind to haul him away from oncoming traffic and call an ambulance.
However, that did not help Shanmugam, who was rushed to NIMHANS with severe head injuries and blood loss. He was pronounced dead there.
Shanmugam used to work in a garment factory in Okalipuram and lived with his mother in Laxmanpura.

If home loan borrowers who want to shift to a new lender do not get their maths right, they might end up paying more
Given the fact that the interest rates have been fluctuating like a yo-yo in the last four to five years compared to its fluctuation intensity earlier (prior to 2008-09), the existing home borrowers have felt the heat of increase in their EMIs or increase in their repayment tenures.
Every 0.50 per cent increase in the interest rates by the RBI leads to an increase in the EMI outflow, draining your earnings. In their quest to continue with an unchanged EMI, home loan borrowers look for opportunities with other banks or HFIs that offer lower rates compared to the existing ones.
Assuming you have taken a home loan from a bank/HFI at 11 per cent and you are thinking of shifting the same to another lender who has offered 10 per cent, technically you could be doing a right thing, but there are a few aspects that you have to keep in mind before you actually ink your signatures on the new loan documents.
1. A reduction in the EMI if shifting to a new lender might sound good on the savings front but watch out for the interest rates
2. The cost of sourcing funds differs from bank to bank and that is why the deposit and lending rates are not the same everywhere.
3. When you are shifting your loan your paperwork is laborious and you may have to pay a processing fee to the new lender
A reduction in EMI
A reduction in the EMI, if shifting to a new lender, might sound good on the saving front but when it comes to interest rates we have to bear in mind that every lending institution would have a cost at which it would have sourced funds. For example, if you were to be a lender and you have sourced the funds at nine per cent, then you would perhaps want to lend it at 10 per cent, thereby keeping your profit margin or spread at one per cent.
During your course of sourcing (borrowing) funds to lend, what if your cost of borrowing goes up to 9.50 per cent? Would you still lend at 10 per cent, thereby reducing your margin to 0.50 per cent? No. If you are a businessman you would increase your lending rate to 10.50 per cent, thereby retaining your margin or profit spread at one per cent. Every time your cost of funds increases you would increase the lending rates, thereby maintaining your margin.
All banks/HFIs continuously get funds from various sources including encouraging deposits at various rates to meet the credit demand. As and when the rate of deposits goes up, the lending rates would be adjusted to keep the spread intact.
The rates that are offered by a lender would not be static or consistent; and that is the reason for banks/HFIs offering floating rates so that such adjustments can be made without any big impact on their spread.
What is to be noted is that the cost of sourcing funds could vary. One bank might be able to source it cheap while another might have a higher cost and that is the reason why the deposit rates and lending rates are not the same at all banks/HFIs.
If you shift your loan to a new bank/HFI you are also exposing yourself to the risk of being aligned to higher interest rates in the future if the cost of funds go up for the institution. This happens because you would have opted for a floating rate.
Currently banks follow what is called as Base Rate which is the minimum interest rate of a bank below which it cannot lend, and all banks are allowed to choose their own base rates which would be in line with their cost of funds.
Please bear in mind that if the interest rate variations are over one per cent between your current lender and the new lender it might make sense, but at lesser variation it may not make a long term sense if you are thinking you would save a few lakhs.
Moreover, when you are shifting your loan your paperwork is laborious and also you may have to pay a processing fee to the new lender.

Anthony Weiner: Shirtless, Christopher Lee-Like Photo Revealed by L.A.'s Breitbart
Breitbart comes with more Weiner.
L.A. blogger Andrew Breitbart today blew the shirt off of Weinergate, revealing a few more racy photos of the U.S. representative, ones he allegedly tried to use to woo women.
This as Anthony Weiner of New York admitted in a Monday afternoon news conference that he sent a woman a photo of his underpants-covered boner -- the picture that set off the controversy.
He originally claimed his Twitter account had been hacked and someone else had sent the pic to a woman in Seattle.
The rep admitted to inappropriate communication with women he met online, mostly on Facebook. (And note here, guys, that it's Facebook, not Bonerbook).
He said "I am deeply regretting what I have done and I am not resigning."
Boing: I voted for health care.
Weiner apologized to his wife and family, however.
He said the photo was sent as "a joke," but his conference was airing as more such jokes appeared to emerge via Breitbart, who wrote that the pics were posted on a Yahoo profile linked to an email address that the blogger says was used by Weiner.
One awesome pic uncovered by Breitbart appears to show the rep posing shirtless, a la Christopher Lee, with a framed photo of Weiner with President Bill Clinton in the background.
Way to woo the ladies. (Clinton is probably biting his lip and giving Weiner the thumbs-up as we speak).
Which leads us too: Tips for pervs:
-When trolling for "strange" online don't use your real photo.
-Maybe use charm instead of boner shots. (Ladies don't really like boner shots, honestly).
-When your last name is Weiner, try to avoid dick-based controversies.
-And, most important, maybe don't troll for strange when you're a married U.S. rep.
Added: Weiner said he had inappropriate online communication with six women.
Breitbart, meanwhile, claimed Monday he had one shot of Weiner so that was so "beyond vulgar" that he could not publish it.

My recent absence has been due to a move, I got an awesome new house x3, I just got internet connection back, and while I probably wont be on as much as I used to be, Ill still be on as much as I can, I know you missed me ;P

Hell yes I read manga, I love it. I enjoy Naruto, of course, but my favorite manga is easily Fullmetal Alchemist. Glad to see manga fans getting some recognition on the site, thanks guys.

The Second Amendment right of the people to keep and bear Arms, controversial enough as a domestic constitutional issue, becomes an extraordinarily provocative enigma when viewed in light of historical experiences of foreign governments. This is particularly the case when the state analyzed is Nazi Germany, which invariably (and justifiably) gives rise to negative comparisons.
A revisionist view now has been boldly asserted that Hitler was friendly to perhaps the most dangerous freedom in the Bill of Rights. The Fordham Law Review recently published a provocative Second Amendment Symposium issue which included three articles suggesting that Nazi Germany had liberal policies toward firearm owners and that the National Rifle Association (NRA) promotes a myth of Nazi repression of firearms owners as part of a cultural war. This author is taken to task as a leading perpetrator of this alleged myth.
In response, I wish to suggest why the study of Nazi firearms policies is a legitimate and timely topic of scholarly analysis in the studies of totalitarian legal systems and of the Holocaust. Presumably a justification for the study of tyranny in history is to help ensure that such events never take place again, whether in toto or in less oppressive but still not negligible contexts.
GUN CONTROL IN THE THIRD REICH: Disarming the Jews and Enemies of the State
Presents the definitive history of how the Nazi regime used gun control to disarm and repress its enemies and consolidate power. Previous books on Nazi Germany and the Holocaust fail even to mention the laws restricting firearms ownership, which rendered Jews, political opponents, and other disfavored groups defenseless.

District electoral officers have been asked to display signs outside polling booths
Health activists in the city have welcomed the Delhi Chief Electoral Officer's instructions to all district electoral officers-cum-district magistrates to ensure prohibition of smoking at booths. The district electoral officers have also been asked to display signs outside polling booths informing voters about booths being no-smoking zones.
Voluntary Health Association of India (VHAI) executive director Bhavna Mukhopadhyay called it a significant development for effective implementation of tobacco control laws. She maintained that other States, including Assam, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir, Jharkhand, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, too have declared all polling stations as no-smoking zones.
Ms. Mukhopadhyay, whose organisation works for tobacco control, added: "We met key electoral officials to ensure that polling stations in Delhi be made smoke-free and requested them to issue necessary instruction/direction to all the concerned officials to put a complete ban on smoking inside polling booths." VHAI previously made representations to the Chief Electoral Officer of Delhi keeping in view the dangers of passive smoking on women voters.
"There is a lack of awareness regarding passive smoking and studies have shown that second-hand smoking tends to cause pulmonary diseases and lung infections. The worst sufferers are women, pregnant women and young children. If directives are issued and implemented strictly, it will be of great service to the public and help generate awareness about the dangers of smoking," said Binoy Mathew, media officer of VHAI.
The Chief Election Commission of India had earlier issued instructions in its handbook to all the presiding officers to impose complete ban on smoking inside all polling booths throughout the country. "Chapter IX Section 7.0 of the Handbook has directed all the polling officers to ensure that no smoking is allowed inside their polling stations. It further adds that neither polling officer nor the polling agents are allowed to smoke inside the polling station. Section (4) of the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products (Prohibition of Advertisement and Regulation of Trade and Commerce Production, Supply and Distribution) Act COTPA 2003 prohibits smoking in all public places," added Mr. Mathew.

Tibetan teens in rare double immolation: Reports and rights groups
Published on Feb 21, 2013 12:51 PM
BEIJING (AFP) - Two Tibetan teenagers died after they set fire to themselves in protest at Chinese rule, reports and Western rights groups said, in a rare instance of a double self-immolation in the restive region.
The former primary school classmates were named as 18-year-old Sonam Dargye and a 17-year-old identified by US-based Radio Free Asia (RFA) only as Rinchen.
They died Tuesday in Aba prefecture, a Tibetan area of Sichuan province in southwestern China, RFA said, where a wave of the gruesome acts have occurred.
Stephanie Brigden, head of London-based campaign group Free Tibet, which also reported the deaths, said: "Tibet's children... face all the challenges of life under oppression, and are often full participants in the struggle to resist it."

Betting on The Next Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee
Betting on The Next Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee
With Barack Obama still holding a slight lead over Republican John McCain, the choice he makes for the Vice President in the upcoming Presidential Election could be one of the most important decisions made in recent political history.
Our panel of political betting experts at TheSpread.com broke down the current listed favorites at online sports book Bodog and handicapped the front runners:
Tim Kaine: With current listed odds at 6-1, the Minnesota born Governor of Virginia was the first Governor to endorse Barack Obama for President. Many democratic party leaders feel Virginia is an important battle-ground state that will be in play for the Democratic party this year and putting Kaine on the ticket could add those important 13 electoral votes into the Obama column. Do not forget the fact having a southern white male on the ticket could help get some extra votes in the South.
Evan Bayh: The Senator from Indiana is sitting at 2-1 to become the Vice President for the Democratic Party. Outside of Indiana being a very important state to the Democratic party, Evan could help with those working middle class voters that Obama has failed to bring into his camp as hoped. Don't forget he is not only from a Red State but was a supporter of Hillary Clinton and can help with getting some of her people to embrace Obama.
Hillary Clinton: What seemed like a dream ticket at one point is sitting at 5-1 according to Bodog. Hillary is very popular among Democrats, but our experts feel there is nothing to gain by Barack selecting Mrs. Clinton. Any energized supporter of Clinton is most likely going to cast a vote for Obama anyway, so there is no gain in other areas that other candidates can bring. Obama needs a Robin to his Batman and not vice versa. Love her or hate her, Hillary is a powerful personality and it is not wise to have someone that could overshadow the main candidate.
After reviewing the field, we feel the smart money should be either on Evan Bayh or Tim Kaine for the VP nomination. Toss Hillary out of the mix, as she would be more of a detriment to the Democratic camp, as a Clinton VP would energize the Republican base in swing states.

Re: Betting on The Next Democratic Vice Presidential Nominee
I can't see Hillary taking this nod. She doesn't want to risk anything Obama may do hurting her chances next go round.
Would be historic for sure but she is smarter than that I think

PICKENS — The Pickens Senior Center located in the Hagood Community Center joined the Upstate Heritage Quilt Trail with a quilt block was sponsored by the Hagood Community Center Fiber Arts Program.
The original quilt was made by Mary E. Granger (1932-2008) as a Bicentennial quilt. A native of Rochester, N.Y., she received degrees in nursing and art history. It was the latter training that yielded years of creativity. Her talents showed in the areas of dress making, pen and ink drawings, photography, reverse painting on glass, traditional rug hooking, painting and quilt making.
She married her husband, James, during his medical school training. After graduation, he re-entered the service as a physician in the U.S. Army Medical Corps.
While stationed in the Washington, D.C., area, she met and was influenced over the years by Jinny Byers. Mary started her Bicentennial quilt while the family was stationed in Augusta, Ga., and continued to work on it as she moved from Georgia to North Carolina to Tennessee.
When finished, it was featured in Byers' Medallion Quilt Book, a reference book at the Pickens Senior Center.
The quilt is done in red, white and blue, with four eagles, and medallions of stars and tassels in celebration of the four Presidents from Virginia – George Washington, James Madison, James Monroe and Thomas Jefferson.
The Pickens Senior Center is the current owner of the quilt. The Hagood Community Center, 129 School House St., building began in 1929 as the Pickens Mill School for the children whose parents worked at the mill.

The EB-5 program has received growing attention in recent weeks. In these days of tight credit, particularly for commercial real estate development, the EB-5 Program provides an attractive alternative to conventional real estate finance for a wide variety of projects. The program creates foreign investment by allowing a person, with qualifying immediate family members, to obtain permanent resident (green card) status by investing in a new U.S. commercial enterprise, and creating or saving 10 full time U.S. jobs. The usual required investment is $1 million, but this amount is reduced to $500,000 if the investment is made in a rural area or area of high unemployment. The EB-5 Regional Center Pilot Program permits the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to designate qualified applicants as regional centers eligible to accept EB-5 investments from foreign investors to generate job creating economic development within the United States. Through the Regional Centers, the job creation requirement can be met either directly or indirectly, through the establishment of sufficient economic activity to permit USCIS to conclude that the job creation requirement will be met. After the investment is approved by USCIS, the investor receives conditional residence status for a period of two years. This conditional status is removed and the unconditional permanent resident status is awarded, if the investor shows at the end of such period that the investment has been maintained and that the required jobs have been created or saved. The time to attain this status is relatively short compared to other green card application options.

Princeton, NJ (PRWEB) May 20, 2013
BESLER Consulting, a leading provider of comprehensive revenue recovery services to healthcare organizations, is pleased to announce that Southeast Alabama Medical Center of Dothan, Alabama has selected the company to assist in the identification of Medicare Transfer DRG underpayments.
Under Medicare reimbursement regulations, when certain patients are discharged to post acute care, the discharging hospital is paid at a reduced rate. In some cases, this reduced payment is not justified by the actual post-discharge care. These underpayments are not reflective of coding or billing errors on the part of the provider, but more commonly result from a change in the planned course of treatment subsequent to discharge.
BESLER uses proprietary software to efficiently work through the identification and follow-up tasks required to validate the accuracy of post-acute care transfer billing and to ensure compliance. BESLER also offers the BVerified(SM) suite of web-based solutions, which allows providers to bring the work of identifying, prioritizing and recovering Medicare underpayments in-house.
"We believe our compliance-focused revenue recovery services are the most effective and flexible in the industry," commented Jonathan Besler, BESLER's President and Chief Executive Officer, "and we're very pleased to welcome Southeast Alabama Medical Center to the BESLER roster of clients."
About Southeast Alabama Medical Center
A trusted leader in healthcare, Southeast Alabama Medical Center (SAMC) is a not-for-profit community health system dedicated to improving the health and quality of life of the residents of southeast Alabama, southwest Georgia and the Florida Panhandle. Led by volunteer boards made up of community leaders, SAMC operates as a 420-bed regional referral center,

Pretty funny there blu.
Normally I don't discuss my sex life on a boat or any other locale for that matter, but as a public service advisory, I'm going to make an exception.
I'm guessing that you all have read or heard of using Viagra as a recreational enhancement even though one might not have any problem rising to the occassion. Well before I met my wife, an old girlfriend suggested an overnight stay on her boat and she promised a ride on her 'capsule of love'. Cool. Little did I know what she had in mind and that she was aware of Viagra's little secret - that it could also enhance the female's pleasure as well.
The moon was full, the motion of the boat was pleasant and added to the mood. Long story short, she took one pill, gave me two and we toasted 'may the festivities begin'! Her's went down, mine got suck just behind my adams apple. I tried to wash it down with mass quanities of wine with no avail...stuck for 15 minutes. It all went down hill from there...she ended up very frustrated, the wine took care of my natural abilities and I ended up with a very STIFF neck!
So you recreational 'boaters' beware!
Yeah I know, a looong way to go for a joke. But at least, none of it's true.

Play a Klingon till T3 if you think we need a nerf!
Lord knows we all gave the Federation side a try... Open Beta I played both sides to Lt. Commander 8, the fed ball was amazing... We won more then lost in 5v5... Klingon side now is no different... Except we have equal gear in T1 and you can see the difference in tactics at T1 as well...
Anyways - play to T3, send kujo@mojokujo a group invit for verification, and then tell me Klingons need to be nerfed! Anytime you Feds want to win a match, jump into science and cruiser ships and ball up!
I play'd klingons T2 in beta, when it was hard..
I think klingons need a nerf.
Way too many advantages now. In Beta, it was hard, but it was a challenge and with a bit of coordination, it was pretty even. Now.. klingons just win 90% of the arena matches with the same tactic.
Sorry, but you guys are going to get nerfed. Deal with it.
It's been said before but..
In tier 1 the Klingons obviously have the advantage as most feds are coming in on newbie starter gear.
But in tier 2 especially later levels the feds catch up with their greater gear and the Klingons are rather limited since we barely have any content.
As it is, my shields get taken down instantly by even cruisers or science. I have to constantly rotate to show different sides, pop bo abilities like a madman, then most likely am forced to do a combat cloak.
And we can't do most of our damage in our escorts if we are facing to the side as you guys can. So our lack of equal gear, and lack of cruisers in tier2 makes every match a challenge unless the feds are really dumb and just run in solo.
I just want faction chat and increased user interface.
What they need to do is fill the teams on both sides before starting the game. Just like other games Q up the roster then start the game once that is done.
DEVS, nerfed us in OB (more noobs who comed to play didnt know how to play Feds and started QQing/Crying/Whining/Sobbing/yelling for mom etc).
And now someone is saying we are getting a nerf in prelaunch, and possible in the future.
Now let me say this much, you can keep your retarded game where your Developer tongue goes so deep into casual fed players aft that i dont wanna be any part of it.
T1 feds are flying and sunday driving in white gear, ups they get their ass handed to themselves by PvP players, big suprise.
T2 Feds get Cruisers, WOAH i wanna fly a big bad cruiser, and guess what, its so OP ship in T2 that in general team with the most Cruisers wins, and btw Klingons have none.
T3 Ive got reports that Fed gearing is so OP compared to Klink side that Cruisers can take 5 players for over 30 seconds and even survive as Klingon side looses ships more faster then Feds. Part of the problem is Federation Alpha when 1st guy uncloaks. (1st burst comes from Feds)
T4 no reports/info
T5 no reports/info
Now ive talked about the 1st burst from Fed side but no one thinks about the problem, Klingons have frontal attack, so when one of us is devestated from start and he looses his shields INSTANTLY upon decloacking, he has to face away and start tanking = ZERO Dps.
On fed side they keep shooting coz of wide arcs.
So basically in every tier from 2->5, the 5vs5 games are not 5vs5 games, they are 5 vs 4 (4 Klinks and one tank who cant face the target).
You can argue that one Klingon should use wide arc weapons, but be realistic, was the game really developed that in mind ? short answer , it wasnt.
---------- Devs Stop listening to Federation Whiners , Listen to CB OB Prelaunch Klingon players who 99% say how it is ------------
Seriously I agree with the OP if you think klingons have it so easy play one learn that you have no PvE content so all you can do is PvP and so of course you and your team all who do the same will be the in same situation
Personal I only do ground PvP because my ship gets blown up so much in space against a fed ball I gont see it as any fun.

Kathleen Horan, Reporter, WNYC News
Kathleen Horan is a staff reporter for New York Public Radio, covering the neighborhood beat. She also reports 'Reset', an ongoing series documenting police-community relations in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
Whatever comes out of the Eric Garner investigation, NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton said one thing is clear: officers need more training, beginning with the use of force.
"How do we train our officers for takedown, how do we train them to use the various levels of force they're authorized to use," said Bratton at a press conference Tuesday, flanked at department headquarters by several top brass, including Deputy Commissioner of Training, Benjamin Tucker.
In 2007, during a melee in MacArthur Park, LAPD officers were filmed swinging batons and firing rubber bullets into the crowd. Bratton responded by demoting a deputy chief, reassigning 60 officers and issuing a scathing report. The 66-year-old appears to be bringing the same, direct approach to his biggest challenge at the NYPD thus far.
He called Garner's death tragic but said it could be an opportunity for officers to change. "That allows them to effectively interact…in a way in which they build confidence rather than create fear," said Bratton.
Garner was allegedly selling loose cigarettes illegally before officers overpowered him, possibly causing his death. When asked about the NYPD's focus on enforcing relatively minor crimes, Bratton said officers would continue to enforce all laws. But he added that he was looking to the entire department to use their discretion as they addressed problems in the city.
If independent investigation shows an illegal chokehold was used and caused his death, the officers involved should be fired and prosecuted for manslaughter. And all the cops who stood by and didn't stop the illegal chokehold immediately should be fired as well.
And the civil lawsuit payout should come from their savings and pensions before taxpayer funds.
