The leadership of the Congress for Democratic Change (CDC) has suspended for time indefinite the Chairman of its Youth League.
A release from the party said Jefferson Koijee was suspended for grave offenses found to be incompatible with the guiding principles and constitution of the party.
The party informs the public of the immediate suspension of Mr. Koijee, pending investigation, consistent with Part II of the By-Laws; Chapter I, Codes of Conduct, Rule 14 of the By-Laws and Constitution of the CDC.
Nevertheless, the leadership of the party reaffirms the immense significance of the Youth League as an integral part of the CDC's body politics, which objectives shall be to unite the youth of the land in their common struggle against marginalization and provide leadership in surmounting the problems confronting the youth, thus ensuring that they make full and meaningful contributions to the work of the CDC and the life of the nation.
However, the leadership of the CDC noted that Koijee's "thoughtless" actions betrayed the objectives mentioned above which deliberatively flouts basic 'Executive orders' decreed by the party.
The release, signed by George Solo, National Chairman of the CDC, added that serious offenses that run contrary to the established etiquette governing all members and officials of the Congress for Democratic Change will not be compromised.
The CDC urged Mr. Koijee to submit himself to the 'Grievance & Ethics Committee' to obtain a copy of his charge-sheet and may choose to exercise his inalienable right to defense and due process.
The leadership of the party cautioned Koijee to desist from actions or making utterances that could subject the institution to public inconveniences as additional measures could be contemplated to protect the governing standards of the mighty Congress for Democratic Change.
"In the interim, the CDC maintains that it will not allow the party's widening democratic space and the internal expansion of democratic pluralism to be compromised by selfish political engineering by any individual, irrespective of status or affiliation," the release stressed.

Who Is Unique, Glee Project Winner Alex Newell's Cross-dressing Glee Alter-Ego?
During April 17's Season 3, Episode 16: "Saturday Night Glee-ver," we finally got the chance to see the final Glee Project Season 1 winner take his rightful place on the Glee screen.
But not only did we get to meet Alex Newell's (Wade), a mild-mannered Carmel High School student and Vocal Adrenaline member... But we also came face to face with his sassy and confident alter-ego, Unique.
You see, where the sometimes-timid Wade doesn't always have the courage to say exactly what he's feeling, his beautiful (and high heel-loving) alter-ego, Unique, does.
After seeking the advice of Mercedes (Amber Riley) and Kurt (Chris Colfer), Wade ultimately decides to perform as Unique — glitter, sequins, and all — at Vocal Adrenaline's next performance. Coach Jesse St. James (Jonathan Groff) isn't impressed, but the audience certainly is.
Better watch out, New Directions! Wade and Vocal Adrenaline are your competition at Nationals this year. And based on Alex's amazing performance of "Boogie Shoes," we'd say you'd definitely better bring it this year if you want to take home that Nationals win!

Amsterdam is so gorgeous to look at from the canals. We picked Geoff up with Froukje and Andre's boat (see below for the boat).
The sun was setting and it was gorgeous. We then 'sailed' to a bar which we used to go to when we lived in Amsterdam (Cafe de Prins) and parked the boat to have a drink and some 'bitterballen'.
We then took the boat back to Froukje and Andre's house as Andre was going to cook dinner (again. lucky us – he is a fantastic cook). The sun had set and the lights in everyone's houses makes it look magical at night. My photos are all blurry. Once we arrived back home (well, Froukje and Andre's home) the usual takes place: fireplace on, candles lit, music on, wine bottle uncorked, andre cooking, us sitting at the table chatting (we of course do offer to help cook but all four us prefer to work solo when we cook). Followed by great food, hours of talking, the perfect evening again.

What Republicans could learn from NY race
Winningreen Issue Alert A052611
What Republicans could learn from defeat in NY congressional race
By Gretchen Randall
Date: May 26, 2011
Issue: After Republicans lost a special election in a very Republican district in upstate New York on Tuesday, the media and many Democrats blamed it on Republican support for Paul Ryan's budget plan which includes reforming Medicare. Leading up to the election, Democrats ran TV ads showing hypothetical Republicans shoving Grandma off a cliff, and did "shamelessly distort and demagogue the issue to scare seniors" as Ryan himself admitted.
However, Republicans did little to help themselves. They floundered in town hall meetings during the Easter recess, unable to answer voters' questions and allowed Democrats to convince seniors that under the Ryan plan, Republicans would dissolve Medicare. Here are some of our ideas on what Republicans can now do to repair the damage and still win the argument:
√ It may have been better for such a significant proposal to come from a presdiential candidate, but now that the plan has passed the House, don't run away from it.
√ Explain the plan in simple terms to all members of the House and Senate so they can defend it as well as Paul Ryan. Beyond talking points, members must be educated on the "why" and "how" of the plan so they feel comfortable answering constituent questions.
√ Simplify the message — don't get too wonky. We've seen Paul Ryan's detailed video (link below). The message must be shorter and simpler: "No change for current recipients." or "Medicare will go bankrupt in a few years unless we work together to save it now."
√ Make sure voters know Obama would have 15 bureaucrats decide what healthcare, drugs and procedures seniors would be allowed to have. Neither they nor their doctor would have a choice.
√ Counter Democrat ads which are filled with lies with ads explaining the true situation. Don't let lies go unanwsered.
√ Acknowledge that this is a "blueprint" and is open to changes if only the president or Democrats would negotiate. It is not the only or necessarily the final answer to saving Medicare.
√ Begin a national message campaign to explain to voters that without some change, Medicare will soon be bankrupt. It's better to spend some campaign money now rather than wait nearer election time when it may be too late.
√ Make job creation and growing the economy a top priority as well. (House Republicans introduced their plan today.) Read: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0511/55755.html

EEOC Issues New Regulations Implementing the Amendments to the Americans With Disabilities Act
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has released final regulations implementing the Americans With Disabilities Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA). The regulations, which go into effect on May 24, 2011, are available here (eeoc.gov). The EEOC also released two question-and-answer documents about the regulations, which are available here. According to the EEOC, under the ADAAA's newly expanded definition of disability, it will now be "easier for an individual seeking protection under the ADA to establish that he or she has a disability."
Broader Definition of Disability. The ADAAA and the new regulations broaden the definition of "substantially limits" and "major life activity." A person need no longer be "significantly or severely restricted" in a major life activity to be found to be disabled. Rather, an impairment is now a disability if it "substantially limits" the individual "as compared to most people in the general population." Moreover, "major life activities" now include all activities that are "of central importance to daily life," including (but not limited to) "[c]aring for oneself, performing manual tasks, seeing, hearing, eating, sleeping, walking, standing, sitting, reaching, lifting, bending, speaking, breathing, learning, reading, concentrating, thinking, communicating, interacting with others, and working," the "operation of a major bodily function," and "the operation of an individual organ within a body system." The new regulations make clear that both "substantially limits" and "major life activity" should be "construed broadly" in favor of "expansive coverage," and are not meant to be "demanding standards."
"Predictable Assessments." The regulations also enumerate a list of impairments that, if they substantially limit a major life activity, will "consistently meet the definition of disability." These include deafness, blindness, intellectual disability, autism, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, partially or completely missing limbs, mobility impairments, cancer, autism, HIV/AIDS, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and schizophrenia.
Most Mitigating Measures Not Relevant. The regulations require that the determination whether an individual is disabled or not be made "without regard to the ameliorative effects of mitigating measures." The regulations provide only one exception to this rule, which is that eyeglasses and contact lenses are to be considered in determining whether an individual has a visual disability.
Definition of "Regarded As" Disabled. The focus of a "regarded as" claim is now on how the person was treated rather than on what an employer believed about the nature of the person's impairment. Now, a non-disabled individual need only show that he or she was subjected to an action prohibited by the ADA based on an actual or perceived impairment, regardless of whether the perceived impairment limits a major life activity.
Impairments that are Episodic or in Remission. An impairment that is episodic or in remission remains a disability "if it would substantially limit a major life activity when active."
These changes to the ADA landscape will impact how employers respond to requests for accommodation from employees or applicants who now may be deemed disabled under the new, broader standards. Employers should review their policies and practices for compliance with the ADAAA and the implementing regulations. If you would like further guidance regarding the ADAAA and its implementing regulations, please contact any member of the Schiff Hardin Labor and Employment Group.

Campus Conversations
Wallace will retire this spring after more than 25 years as university chaplain. Our consolation is that he will be succeeded by the able Rev. Dr. Karen Wood (a kind and familiar face at Willamette already), but his departure looms like the end of summer break. Luckily, he'll be hanging around to teach a course or two.
Describe religious or spiritual life on campus for us today.
It's just as interesting as it's always been. There was a study done five or seven years ago that analyzed religion in the U.S. by region. The Northwest was "the none zone," meaning that people here tend to check "none of the above" when asked about affiliation. This doesn't mean they're not religious, but it does mean that they're independent. My tenure here has been about making meaning in such an environment. It's been easy enough, since Willamette's DNA is laced with an emotional connection to spiritual and religious life. It's expressed in our Methodism and in many other ways.
How has the Methodist Church impacted campus culture throughout your tenure?
There's a social gospel invoked here, where our Methodist background has expressed itself over the decades in terms of social justice, integration and peace. And it persists. We are nonsectarian, but we are still officially connected to the church. This influence continues to push us toward serving our community, and it is entirely authentic.
There's yet another obvious connection to the motto, then.
Yes, and it's one of the most important ones. The earliest physical sign of our motto on campus that I know of is the inscription of it in Cone Chapel. This is circa 1919 or so, right after
World War I. In the early Willamette days, the motto would have been used not just as an entry into learning Latin [see The Scene, Winter 2012 for its Latin derivation], but as a moral guide. This is something that I hope future research will shed light on.
You'll be staying on board as a part-time faculty member. What are some of your hopes there?
When I did my doctoral dissertation, it was on religious life in 18th-century England; I found that the dissenters always tended to live near physical borders, since they could always hop over the line if the authorities came looking for them. I've been hopping similarly between the chaplain job and the faculty for years. I'm looking forward to spending some good time in the archives. There are lots of great materials up there.
How has being at Willamette informed your own religious life?
I've been witness to so many journeys — I've seen students develop, ask questions and make choices. Most of them have even been good choices! I've seen the possibilities of growth. To have been able to teach those things has helped me know myself. For me, my time here has ended up confirming my belief in the religious tradition I'm a part of, but it has also allowed me to approach people who are journeying parallel to me in other traditions.
How has the chaplain's role changed during your time here?
Around the time I arrived, places like Willamette began exploring interfaith issues. As people's identification with denominations has fallen away, we've identified lots of interest in understanding and pursuing other religious and spiritual traditions. Chaplains now need to be approachable and able to help people along many different paths. We're not here to convert; we're here to propel. People of all sorts of religious traditions come to us for guidance, and some of the most interesting conversations, actually, are with people of no religious background. Some of our best advocates are non-religious members of the community
Everyone wants to know: How do you write such memorable invocations?
This is one of the parts of the job I've enjoyed the most. There's no big process. Ever since seminary, I've had buddies who were just as wacko as me, and I've always enjoyed surprising people. Humor keeps people awake, thinking; it's fun to play with.
Any regrets?
I still wish we could have had someone out of Monty Python at commencement. John Cleese would have been a hoot.

Growing food for hungry citizens in Hernando County
Olivia Kabat
WMNF Drive-Time News Friday | Listen to this entire show:
Access to healthy food can be difficult around the world, and here in the Tampa Bay area. A workshop will address the growing hunger problem in Hernando County.
The plan is to create awareness of the unsettling poverty situation in Hernando and other counties in Florida. According to Green World Path Inc., a large number of people in Hernando especially are struggling because they cannot afford to feed themselves and their families. Dori Bon, Outreach Coordinator for Green World Path says helping to grow healthy food will greatly support hurting families in the area.
âHernando County was the hungriest county, hungrier people, in the whole state and that shook me up. I had worked on a homeless coalition when I was attending college. We did a count and there were literally thousands of people who were homeless at that point and it has progressively gotten worse. We have a community garden here in Hernando County that a lot of people donât even realize that its hereâ¦and our own county is going hungry.â
Bon recognizes this opportunity to make a significant difference in reducing hunger. The class is open to the public and everyone is encouraged to get involved in the movement to grow all natural, healthy foods for hungry citizens.
âWe find that there is a huge need for it and thatâs why were opening the doors for this. We want to kick it off and invite anybody and everybody that is willing and wanting to learn to come. Weâd like to have preachers, church groups, weâd like to have corporations; anybody thatâs involved and has an interest in that, homeless coalition groups, colleges, and we need volunteers. We have to start somewhereâ¦why not in the hungriest county in Florida?â
With food prices high, itâs difficult for some people to afford what they need to survive. This is a growing issue, involving not only Florida, but the whole world.
âWeâve got a world shortage of food. This shortage of food is being picked up as business and a lot of businesses are keeping the food high. So itâs very difficult for ends to meet all over.â
Bon says the goal is to get other organizations and churches hooked and then begin the project by growing food for people in need.
âWe are going to start educating on building soils to the main mission groups like the churches, community gardens, activist groups, etc. Then from there, they teach. Weâll take it right from the seed to harvesting. You can grow food anywhere, you can grow right in your backyard, grow it through minis able parks, anywhere as long as itâs open to do so. Thereâs no reason Florida should be hungry at all.â
Growing Food for Hernando Countyâs Hungry takes place next Monday morning at 9 in Brooksville.comments powered by Disqus

"We first started the blind pre-order for Indie Royale for two reasons," Indie Royale co-founder Simon Carless told Joystiq. "Firstly, we did it because the popularity of Indie Royale was crushing our website when we launched, thanks to the 'ascending price' model - although we've improved our systems a lot since then! And secondly, because the price is variable for the bundle, we found our users were stressed about being in front of a computer when the bundle launched." Also, Carless added, "We find that some people have fun guessing the games in the bundle! More power to them!"
For their faith, pre-orderers (and, later, anyone who pays above the minimum) will be treated to a free copy of George & Jonathan's chiptune album "Beautiful Lifestyle".
Though he wouldn't divulge the identities of the games ahead of time -- you can find clues on the Indie Royale site -- Carless elucidated the process through which games are added to the bundle. "We've been contacted by over 150 developers since we started, and we've also reached out to dozens," he said. "It's particularly cool because we're excited to be able to showcase titles of all genres (a standalone Windows PC version is the minimum that we require, although generally the majority of our titles also have Steam and Desura download keys, and the new bundle has PC and Mac versions of all the games)."
The sole requirement of Windows helps differentiate Indie Royale from other indie bundles like the charity-driven Humble Indie Bundle, as it allows games that wouldn't qualify for others to be part of a Royale bundle. "And we love it when can bring overlooked games to light, such as The Oil Blue," Carless said, "which sold 50 times as many copies in Indie Royale that in its entire lifetime to date."
Other elements Carless identified as unique include this pre-order structure and the pricing, which increases as people buy the bundle, but decreases in proportion to the amount people pay over the minimum. As for competing with Humble Indie Bundle, Carless noted that "in reality, there are enough independent games out there for more than one site to showcase them, in the same way there's more than one Groupon-style deals site out there." The IndieGames.com/Desura co-venture has "tended to sell between 25,000 and 40,000 of each bundle to date," Carless said, "which we're really pleased about." He said that developers get "multiple times" the purchase price of most no-minimum bundles, which he placed at about $1.50.

Pain is the experience of physical discomfort. The discomfort may stem from disease or from tissue damage caused by surgery or trauma. Pain is nature's way of "putting on the brakes" to protect the body from further injury and encourage the rest needed for healing.
We know that by controlling pain, we promote faster healing and improve the quality of life. Uncontrolled pain slows healing, depresses the immune system and worsens the quality of life.
Dogs instinctively try to hide signs of pain. This goes back to their wild ancestry where showing signs of weakness could cause them to become a target for predators. This instinct doesn't always serve our pets well, as we may not realize they are in pain and do something that inadvertently hurts them. They may respond with a growl or bite, trying to tell us it hurts and to leave them alone.
As the owner, you know your dog's normal behavior. You need to be aware of changes in behavior that may indicate your dog is in pain. While crying and whimpering can be signs of anxiety or ways to get attention, it can also be a sign of pain. Your dog may withdraw from attention, become less active, pant more, tremble, show signs of anxiety or have a decreased appetite. If your dog's behavior varies from normal and you think it may be caused by pain, have him examined by your veterinarian.
Pain management in dogs is very similar to managing pain in people. In cases of surgery or trauma, it may be necessary to restrict activity by leash walking or using a crate. Medications called NSAIDS (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), like Rimadyl or Metacam for example, can help relieve inflammation and pain due to surgery, trauma or diseases like arthritis.
NEVER GIVE YOUR DOG OVER THE COUNTER MEDICATIONS WITHOUT FIRST CONSULTING YOUR VETERINARIAN! Human pain medications like ibuprofen can cause serious side effects in dogs. If in doubt, ask first!
If a dog cannot tolerate NSAIDs due to side effects or a medical condition, other medications such as Tramadol or Gabapentin may be used. In cases of severe pain, like patients with severe trauma or cancer, narcotic medications may be used. These drugs may cause sedation, but these signs usually lessen after a few days.
Complementary and alternative therapies can also help alleviate pain. They are frequently used for controlling chronic pain in arthritis and neuromuscular problems. Examples are glucosamine and chondroitin, omega fatty acids, acupuncture, laser therapy and physical therapy. For arthritic dogs that are obese, a weight reduction program can greatly improve mobility and decrease pain.
Talk to your veterinarian about the potential side effects and possible adverse reactions that may be associated with any medications prescribed. Your veterinarian may recommend blood tests to evaluate your dog's organ function prior to starting certain pain medications and to monitor organ function periodically while on the medication.
If you think your dog is in pain, see your veterinarian. After confirming the presence of pain and identifying the cause, you and your veterinarian can establish a plan to manage your dog's pain, helping him live a longer, happier life.

Think I mentioned earlier but one of the acts I am most excited about is The Blood Brothers. I saw them open up for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs years ago and they were great. Lots of high screechy vocals, angst about who knows what and jumping about. They have good songs and they're surprisingly good live.

AUSTRALIANS are keen to see the past emphasis on sport balanced by improved scientific achievement, according to a recent opinion poll commissioned by
The survey found that about 60 per cent of people view sport as the field in which Australia has been most successful in the past. Scientific achievement ranked second, with 16 per cent. But academic achievement outside of science attracted fewer responses than any other option, a miserable one per centbelow military, cultural and business success.
The view of the future, however, is radically different. A total of 40 per cent want scientific or academic achievement to be the mark of Australia's success, ahead of the combined total for business and agricultural production. Even more remarkably for a sports-mad nation, only six per cent want to see sport as the area in which Australia is most successful in the future. This ranks sport below ...

Battle Royal touches on a subject that I think will become more and more to the fore front of society. "Logan's Run" could be said to be a kind of inverse of BR. George Lucas's THX1138 is also a part of this world. The subject that I am talking about is he next social paradigm shift.
Racism, sexism, Fascism, Marxism, basically pick an "ism". The next big "ism" may just be more about age than anything else. This is simply my belief given a number of things.
First off we are looking at the largest generation gap in history....period. The internet is the most important invention since writing and many people have their children explain how to use Internet tech to them.
Second is the perception of older generations currently in office in current government in regards to the emerging web based technology. They keep trying to pass legislation to place the internet under the same constraints as television.
They don't get it. I am in a mall and no less than seven different things are connected to the internet for business purposes. Five years ago half of these devices did not exist. There are senators on record who can't use some if these things. If you don't know how too buy a Coke using a modern vending machine, how can you pass laws regulating how
I can?
Understanding the world in which we live and creating legislation that matches it has always been the point. When Congress fails to do this then you get a reactionary society like the one portrayed in Battle Royal.
Yeah maybe I am reaching but I simply couldn't shake the thought that this whole thing was precipitated by people not understanding how to confront change.
And the "Fresh Prince" song: "Parents Just Don't Understand", kept playing in my head.

The Sports Network
DATE & TIME: Wednesday, November 28, 9 p.m. (et)
FACTS & STATS: Site: Don Haskins Center (12,000) -- El Paso, Texas. Television: None. Home Record: NMSU 3-0, UTEP 1-0. Away Record: NMSU 0-2, UTEP 0-1. Neutral Record: NMSU 0-1, UTEP 0-2. Conference Record: NMSU 0-0, UTEP 0-0. Series Record: New Mexico State leads, 103-99.
GAME NOTES: In a relationship that has already surpassed 200 meetings on the hardwood, the New Mexico State Aggies and the Miners of Texas-El Paso are set to add another chapter to their lengthy history as they get together at the Don Haskins Center in the Lone Star State on Wednesday night.
While this game is being played on the home floor of the Miners, the team comes into the meeting saddled with a four-game losing streak. UTEP won the season opener here against Oral Roberts (69-49), but after that came setbacks to Arizona, Oklahoma, Clemson and, most recently, Vanderbilt on Sunday by a score of 73-49 as part of the Old Spice Classic in Florida.
As for the Aggies, they've managed to even their record at 3-3 after beginning the new season with just one win in four tries. However, this current two-game win streak hasn't been all that impressive since the victories have come against Northern New Mexico (67-37) and Louisiana (79-57) the day after Thanksgiving as part of the 2K Sports Classic.
Last season, each team won on its own court as the Aggies posted a convincing 89-73 victory in Las Cruces on Nov. 19 and about a month later UTEP delivered a 73-69 win in this same building. With the split, that means New Mexico State still maintains a four-game lead in the all-time series, now at 103-99.
Against the Ragin' Cajuns, NMSU broke out to a quick lead and never looked back, leading by as many as 37 points in the second half thanks to a defense that held the visitors to only 29.7 percent shooting from the floor. Bandja Sy led five players in double figures as he dropped 16 points, adding five rebounds and four blocked shots, followed by Tyrone Watson and Kevin Aronis with 12 points apiece, K.C. Ross-Miller 11 and Tshilidzi Nephawe with 10 points and a game-high 11 rebounds as the Aggies crushed Louisiana on the glass, 52-30. After six games this group is still dominating opponents on the boards, beating them by an average of 12.3 rpg and because of that the squad has succeeded in earning itself plenty of second-chance opportunities. Although he was not among the leading scorers the last time out, Daniel Mullings does head the list overall with 14.0 ppg, his 19 assists tops on the team as well, and his 6.0 rpg rank second.
The recent tournament for the Miners proved to be a disaster all-around, particularly against Vanderbilt as they attempted just 15 field goals in the first half and nailed only five, leaving them behind by 16 at the break and 24 once it was all said and done. John Bohannon was responsible for 11 points and six rebounds, but also four turnovers, and Cedrick Lang chipped in 10 points and seven boards for a team that was hit with 20 turnovers, against a mere 17 made baskets. Having used a total of just 10 players thus far, three of whom have played just 82 combined minutes and scored a collective 23 points, the Miners are trying to lean too heavily on a small group of players to get the job done and it isn't working. Bohannon is first on the team with 10.2 ppg and 4.6 rpg, but the group is scoring a mere 55.6 ppg and has been losing the battle of the boards by an average of seven per contest.
The disparity between these two teams on the glass will have a huge impact on the outcome. As long as the Aggies remember to maintain possession of the ball and not play too physical, a road win should be in order.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: New Mexico State 74, Texas-El Paso 59

How long you should keep financial and bank statements
Do you have filing cabinets upon filing cabinets of old documents and bank statements? Or maybe you have been banking green and your computer hard drive is full of files and statements? Either way, you are probably wondering: how long do I have to keep these financial, tax and banking documents? Good question. To find the answer, we went to one of the financial world's leading regulators.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is a good resource for banking information, as well as personal finance tips. In the latest issue of their Consumer News publication the FDIC addressed the question of how long you need to save documents. The information from the FDIC on document retention includes the following advice:
Credit card and bank account statements: Save those with no tax significance for about a year, but those with tax significance should be saved for seven years.
Canceled checks: Those unrelated to anything you claimed on your income tax form and not needed to show you've paid a bill or debt probably can be destroyed after you've verified that your bank statement is correct. But canceled checks that support your tax returns, such as charitable contributions or tax payments, probably should be held for seven years.
And, you may want to keep indefinitely any canceled checks and related receipts or documents for a home purchase or sale, renovations or other improvements to a property you own. But once a home has been sold and another seven years have passed, checks related to renovations or improvements can be destroyed.
Of course, many banks no longer send cancelled checks, although they may provide copies of the originals. "You can keep the copies of your tax-related checks if you get them from your bank, but if you don't get copies with your statement, you have some options," said Evelyn Manley, a Senior Consumer Affairs Specialist at the FDIC.
"The most conservative approach is to order copies of important checks soon after your statement arrives," she said. "Another is to keep the information on your bank statement to order copies if you're audited in the future because, in general, banks that do not return original checks to customers are required to keep copies of checks for seven years."
Also, she said, if you keep records electronically, be sure to back up your data. You can store it in various ways (on CDs, flash drives and so on), but as old technology is no longer supported, you will need to transfer your old data to new media. Another option is to research different companies that provide backup storage online, either free or for a small charge.
Deposit, ATM, credit card and debit card receipts: Save them until the transaction appears on your statement and you've verified that the information is accurate. You may make an exception for receipts for expensive items. If they are under warranty or you have to file an insurance claim, the receipt may be helpful.
Finally, before tossing away any document that contains a Social Security number, bank account number or other personal information (especially financial information), shred it to avoid becoming a victim of identity theft.
For additional guidance on what records to toss and when, ask your accountant, attorney or another trusted advisor.

F-Zero GX
Score: 9.3 / 10
If ever there was a game that didn't encourage blinking, it's F-Zero GX (FZ). Mark my words, when you buy (or rent) FZ grab some eye-drops too, because you can't afford to have your eyeballs dry out. Why this concern? The answer: speed!
FZ is the fastest racing game I've ever played. When you hit 1,500 km/h it feels like you're going that fast. So one misstep – one moment of sloppiness or blinking – and you get to watch the AI competition scream ahead of you (which doesn't necessarily put you out of the race). Inseparable from the speed is the track design, which is generally insane.
The designers must have had a lot of fun creating these things, because after a few run-throughs on some tracks I couldn't stop giggling. Forget F-Zero on the SNES (the last time I played a console version of F-Zero), which featured some neat graphics for the time but completely flat tracks. FZ goes bananas with twists,
turns, spirals, loops, inverted straight-aways, and jumps. Yes, jumps. On several of the tracks, jumps and gaps in the track are the order of the day, which opens up all sorts of possibilities to screw up or send your opponents off the track. Some of the gaps are great, long distances where you suddenly think, "I'm not going to make it!" or "Where'd the track go?" just before you slam back to the track. In aid of clearing these gaps you have the ability to activate a boost (at the expense of your overall energy) or hit strategically placed boost pads on the track.
eBoost pads aren't the only track features that return from the original game. Pit stops are still nergized strips positioned on specific parts of the track – taking damage or using your boost knocks your energy down – so you can avoid a premature exit from the race by blowing up but still maintain an insane level of speed.
You'll have plenty of opportunity to suck up that speed with FZ's many different racing modes such as Grand Prix, Time Attack, Battle (up to four simultaneous players), and Story (for Captain Falcon). However, I also spent an inordinate amount of time tooling around in the Customize option.
Winning during Time Attack, Grand Prix, and Story modes earn you F-Zero Tickets, which come into play when you enter the Customize option where you can spend those tickets buying parts, etc. FZ gives you a free hand in making your own vehicle, right down to emblem. I spent almost 3 hours at a stretch trying different configurations and generally futzing around. This is more than I've ever spent on a racing game configuring my ride – even rally games. The only downside is the amount of memory blocks it sucks up to store your designs. (It was time for a new memory card anyway, right?) But it just feels good to show up your friends with your creations. (As if performing perfect drift turns wasn't enough! Not enough can be said about FZ's great control.)
Graphics? I'm still trying to moisten my eyeballs enough to get a really good look at them. In actuality, FZ is smoothly presented and great-looking game without being overwhelming. (I think I've harped on that whole "speed" thing enough.) The sound is great. If you've got a sound system hooked-up to your Cube you'll notice more of the subtleties (like the "fwoomp!" of the boost kicking the bass) but even without a sound system, this is still a fine sounding game.
At the end of the day, F-Zero GX is a speed-freaks dream come true. On top of being fast, Fast, FAST, FZ has great racing options, insane tracks, snappy control, a brilliant customize feature, and the ever-important fun factor.

Episode #112
More family life in the raw in this innovative comedy as Pete and Sue (Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner) grapple with some very adult problems (eg sexual jealousy, promotion, spiralling debt and mortality) while fielding the kids' problems as well. This week, six-year-old Karen is preoccupied with the exact whereabouts of Satan, and Ben falls foul of a hardline football referee. Meanwhile, Dad is asked to write some propaganda, Mum tries to compete with the impossibly perfect supermum next door and Grandad is alarmed by TV shows that look down people's toilets. [29 minutes]

Series Description: Outnumbered follows the battle of wills between two parents and their three young children, who are seemingly locked into a never-ending contest to see just whose patience will run out first. Testing theories such as not buying broccoli to save money on the weekly shop, and whether or not Jesus should have used his superpowers to combat Herod, the kids ponder the imponderables in the part-improvised comedy that shows how living with kids can provide at turns the funniest and the most cringe worthy experiences available to us all.
Many will recognize how the parents (Hugh Dennis and Claire Skinner) are just attempting to raise their kids with the minimum of emotional damage for all concerned. In the series, the family negotiates hangovers, chess, sex education, colonoscopies, therapy, re-enactments of World War II, and the sun screening properties of kangaroo saliva.

How many colors of DMC floss are there? ?
by ejpyatt
Question by Sarah W.: How many colors of DMC floss are there? ?
I just want to know the total number. They've come out with new ones that aren't on the color chart so I'm not sure how many there are.
Best answer:
Answer by Dani
The site says there are 454 solid; 18 variegated, and several different types of light effects/tone on tone, etc.
Give your answer to this question below!
2 Comments/Reviews
Almost too many to count.
says:CF in VA
Here's the summary of what is on the new color card (actual thread samples):
A color card made with actual strands of 454 solid and 18 variegated colors of DMC Six Strand Embroidery Floss, 24 colors of Color Variations Floss, 24 colors of Linen Floss, 36 colors of Light Effects and 2 colors of Metallic Pearl. Includes notations for DMC Pearl Cotton in sizes 3, 5, 8 and 12. (So, 558 colors on here.)
Just for reference, there are also 36 colors of the new Satin floss (replaces the Rayon line, of which there were 86 colors), 12 colors in the old line of metallics (some colors carried into the new Light Effects), and 182 colors of the Flower Thread (colors similar to the standard floss colors however.)
You can get a new color card easily, most craft stores have the new version of the all-printed card in stock. It's only $ 9.99. You can also order the new version of the actual thread samples card online from the shopDMC site, the link to that card is below (you can get the printed card from them too.)

3 Trends, 4 Questions for Developing Innovative Strategies
February 2012
How do you develop innovative strategies that secure your position and success in the market place?
You look at trends, and then ask questions about how those trends, projected into the future, could affect your business.
Many types of trends comprise the landscape, including politics, geography, and the world order, just to name a few. Here are three you might consider.
Those are just three categories of trends. And I've identified only one or two trends in each category. But you get the idea. You have to determine which trends affect your business.
After looking at a trend, you ask 4 questions: 1) What affect will this have on the products and services I produce? 2) What affect will it have on how I deliver those products and services? 3) What products and services should I develop for the future? 4) What markets should I target?
Let's look at two examples.
Large, international company: After looking at many global trends, an international company is introducing a new product this year. It's been in the works for several years, and they've invested millions of dollars in this product. It's a bold move in an innovative strategy, and they realize the risks involved.
But the global landscape, and the changing trends that will influence that landscape, require a bold move if they want to maintain the top position in a very competitive industry.
Small Business: My friend Tom Falco is in the residential construction industry. He scanned the industry landscape, and saw that people aren't buying new houses because they can't sell their existing homes because of falling home prices.
Or they don't have money to buy a new house. Others, because of the shaky, uncertain economy, don't feel comfortable taking the risk of buying a new house. Regardless of why, they're not buying new homes. That's the trend.
So Tom asked himself, "What can I do to get more business?" He decided to focus on home improvement, and found that people who can't move at least want to improve the house they're in.
Tom now focuses on remodeling existing houses—installing new windows, putting that new roof on, or building a new addition, of finishing that basement. It's not the same as building new houses, but it will do until the industry picks up.
Look at trends and then ask the right questions. What trends are you looking at? What innovative strategies will you use to take advantage of those trends?

recover depends on your age, your health, and whether you have other health
conditions that may slow your recovery. A younger person without other health
problems may improve more quickly than an older person who is in poor health.
Depending on your condition and how you respond to rehab, you may stay in a
particular phase or move back and forth among the various phases. There is no
set length of time that you must stay in a specific phase.
Cardiac rehab has four phases. Your doctor will determine
which phase is best for you to start your program.
If any
of the following symptoms last for more than a few minutes before, during, or
after your exercise session, stop exercising and seek medical help:

CHILDBIRTH can be a source of great fear as well as great joy. Nowadays few women risk death in hospital from "puerperal" or childbed fever. But it was once a grim reality striking the healthy and wealthy as well as the sick in what should have been safe surroundings. It was a risk of delivery.
Mention puerperal fever and the name of Ignaz Semmelweis leaps to mind. This young Hungarian physician who worked in Vienna's main hospital in the mid-19th century was appalled by the carnage in the hospital's maternity wards. He noticed that, of the women who succumbed to post-partum fever, far more had been attended by medical students than by unschooled midwives.
This, he inferred, was because the medics had often come straight from dissecting cadavers in the morgue, carrying infectious material to their ...

I salute your determination, and here's a suggestion:
Boot Knoppix, except, instead of using the default boot image "knoppix",
type "knoppix26" to boot from the optional 2.6 kernel image. (I'm
assuming you're using a 3.4-series Knoppix, which introduced that
option.) There are the usual array of other boot-time parameters you
can specify to the booting kernel, if you need to do something else
funky, as well.
The reason you might want to try the 2.6 image is that Jeff Garzik's
libata driver collection for many (but not all) SATA chipsets was
created for 2.6, and in normal circumstances is available only in that
kernel series, at the moment.
To be more specific, there have been a series of libata backport patches
to sundry 2.4 kernel releases, but precompiled kernels have to date
almost never included those patches. Good news on the horizon: libata
has been accepted into the mainline 2.4 code for the next release
(2.4.27). But, for now, the least-effort way to have access to libata
drivers is to boot a precompiled 2.6 kernel + modules.
Garzik's libata architecture leverages the existence of the kernel's
well-tested SCSI layers to transport the ATA information. So, one
side-effect is that you'll be addressing your SATA hard drives via SCSI
device names (/dev/sda, etc.). Another side-effect is that you won't be
able to do hdparm tweaking of the ATA settings. However, by way of
compensation, libata performance is excellent.
As I mentioned, libata is a driver _collection_. The particular driver
in that set for your Silicon Image 3112A (aka SiI3112A) is called
"sata_sil". When last I checked, Garzik still considered that driver to
be beta-stage. (Garzik seems to consider these chips to have some
challenging bugs that he's gradually working around.)
On your whole mouse thing, yeah, I think peoples' surmise is correct,
that it's very likely a BIOS issue. Fortunately, Abit is generally very
good about finding and fixing such things, so I'd guess they're going to
come out with fixes, and you should keep checking with them.
I have to say, however, that I've changed my mind a _lot_ over the last
couple of years about what I used to call the Useless Serial Bus. USB
is _so_, so much an improvement over PS/2, the old AT keyboard standard,
RS-232C for serial communications, and the Centronics parallel
interface. We can lose the whole lot of those, and I won't miss 'em a
As long as I can find USB converters for my old IBM Model M keyboard
and Logitech Trackman Marble, that is. ;->

The NFL's draft class of 2004 has produced a number of phenomenal quarterbacks, and many argue that it's the best quarterback class in history. Almost nine seasons later, four of the first five quarterbacks drafted that day have become Pro Bowlers. Eli Manning, Philip Rivers, Ben Roethlisberger, and Matt Schaub are all products of that historical draft. Together the four of them have accounted for 103,396 yards, 654 touchdown passes, and an average passer rating of 90.63 during the regular season—as well as four Super Bowl titles.
Manning was drafted first overall in the 2004 by the San Diego Chargers even though Archie Manning made it clear his son had no intentions of playing for lowly San Diego. The Chargers traded Manning to the New York Giants for Rivers, the fourth overall pick in the draft, as well as an additional third-round pick and two picks in the 2005 draft. When the trade was finalized, the Giants received Manning, and the San Diego Chargers received Rivers, Nate Kaeding, Shawne Merriman, and Roman Oben.
The trade worked out exceptionally well for the Giants though Manning has enjoyed the most success out of the four quarterbacks so far in his career. He has two Super Bowl championships, as well as two Super Bowl MVP awards, and has developed into the most respected fourth-quarter passer in the NFL. Manning and the Giants are currently sitting atop their division with a 5–2 record looking to make another run at a Super Bowl.
Although San Diego hasn't enjoyed the postseason success that the Giants have enjoyed, the Manning/Rivers trade worked out well for the Chargers also. Rivers has established himself as a premier quarterback in the NFL with a career QB rating of 94.9 and four Pro Bowl selections.
The Manning/Rivers trade was clearly beneficial for both teams. San Diego seemed to get the better end of the deal early on. Not only did the Chargers get a great quarterback, but they also received an excellent linebacker (Merriman) and kicker (Kaeding) through the trade. But New York came out on top. Without the stellar play of Manning, and a little fourth-quarter magic, the Giants wouldn't have won either one of their recent Super Bowls.
The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Roethlisberger with the 11th overall pick that year. Since arriving in Pittsburgh, Big Ben has helped lead the Steelers to seven winning seasons in eight years and has two Super Bowl championships as well. Roethlisberger has two Pro Bowl appearances to go along with his Super Bowl rings and boasts impressive career statistics with 28,344 passing yards and 176 touchdowns.
Schaub was drafted in the third-round of the 2004 draft by Atlanta who traded him to the Texans in 2007. Since arriving in Houston, Schaub's production has grown enormously. He enjoyed the best season of his career in 2009 when he led the league in passing yards, was elected to the Pro Bowl, and won the Pro Bowl MVP. Schaub is once again enjoying a Pro Bowl caliber season and hopes to lead 6–1 Texans to a coveted Super Bowl championship.
The 1983 NFL Draft class that boasts John Elway, Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, and Ken O'Brien has long been thought of as the best quarterback draft class in history. These four amassed 25 Pro Bowl appearances and two Super Bowl titles in 54 combined seasons. Manning, Rivers, Roethlisberger, and Schaub have accumulated nine Pro Bowl appearances, and four Super Bowl titles in 32 combined seasons in the NFL.
All four quarterbacks from the 2004 draft are still in the prime of their careers and more accolades are sure to follow. The class of the 2004 NFL Draft has provided NFL fans everywhere with high quality play and it will be very unlikely that any other draft class after them will ever enjoy the success that these four have accomplished and will accomplish on the field.

"I loved everything about this card except the size for some reason i thought it would be bigger ? Maybe it was the size i chose"
"We needed a unisex baptism invite for our twin boy/girl and both names fit on the invite and worked perfectly! This invite was great and is a steal for the price. The paper, colors, preset colors and font were perfect and didn't need to be altered. We entered the information and were good to go!. A great invite for the money."
"I used this invitation for our son's dedication at our church. I left all colors and fonts the same, the only thing I changed was the word baptism to dedication because that is what we do at our church. The card turned out beautiful!"
"I was able to customize font and color of text which was fun to do and turned out great. The paper quality was very nice and I chose the matte photo which turned out beautifully. The tiny detail of the fish background was such a nice touch to the overall design. Everyone in my family loves this!!! It is still up on everyone's fridge long past the event!!

'The Simpsons' gets full series FXX marathon, launching 'Simpsons World' digital experienceAdd to Favorites | The Simpsons
You'd better be ready for a whole bunch of "The Simpsons." When the long-running animated series debuts makes its cable debut Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. ET/PT on FXX, it'll be with a record-breaking marathon of every single episode, and the movie, in chronological order.
That's right, all 552 episodes, plus "The Simpsons Movie," will air over 278 hours, ending on Labor Day. The series will also be available through "Simpsons World," a digital experience available through the FXNOW app and on SimpsonsWorld.com. It features live channels airing episodes of "The Simpsons" 24-hours-a-day, plus access to the show's entire library on demand. At this point, the original "The Simpsons" shorts from "The Tracey Ullman Show" are not part of "Simpsons World," but FX President of Program Strategy and COO Chuck Saftler says they're working on it.
The site and app will also be a portal to "Simpsons" content from around the Internet and feature curated and user-created playlists, detailed episode guides, the ability to share clips, user profiles, scripts and a "random episode" feature. Additionally, viewers will be able to collect doughnut points, granting them access to hidden features.
To access "Simpsons World," you will need to authenticate your cable subscription. FXX plans to expand to more carriers in the next year to reach as many people as possible. the experience will be supported by ads before and during each episode. "Simpsons World" will be available on iOS devices, Android devices, Apply TV, Samsung TVs, Xbox 360 and Xbox One with a release targeted in October.

Website of the day: Moo
First impressions count. That might sound like a cliché, but there's no getting away from it. As soon as you walk through the door people will judge you based on your appearance, how you behave and what you say.
You can spend hundreds of pounds on a well-tailored suit, good shoes and maybe a nice watch to complete the look. You can wear the best designer glasses and make sure you're carrying a tasteful bag too.
All these things add up to creating a good impression, then you go and ruin it all by handing over a crappy business card. Thin, shiny, badly printed, cheap.
You might think it doesn't matter, but if you're trying to make a good first impression, a business card is just as important as the way you dress.
You can print your own at any of countless online places, but the results can be a bit hit and miss.
Not so with moo.com. Their cards are a cut above, with simple, elegant styling that's bang up to date, and those nice little design flourishes that make the end product stand out. And these won't cost anywhere near what those designer specs did either.

Manchester, UK (PRWEB UK) 26 February 2013
Their study revealed:
When asked: If you had a choice, what would you buy - a used car, very low mileage, with a "62" number plate? Or exactly the same make, model and spec with "13" reg plate for the same cost?
Finally, the colour green is also associated with bad luck, with 12% of those questioned saying they would never buy a green car.
Louis Rix, Director at Carfinance247.co.uk, says: "The study shows that more than one in ten motorists associate the number 13 with bad luck, and would rather buy the same, make and model of vehicle – at the same price – to get a "62" registration plate.
"The research also showed that 12% of motorists would never buy a green car – tying in with our sales data last year that showed that green, used, cars were among the least popular colour".
"It will be interesting to look back and see if this year was really bad luck for new car manufacturers and good luck for used car dealers!"

Running a couple of mailing lists myself, I understand not wanting to
increase the list's spam exposure level. A couple of things to
1) gmane can be read using the web interface:
the addresses are all (slightly) obfuscated there to avoid
automated email harvesting. example:
2) addresses on the nntp feed are usually not obfuscated, unless we
request it on a per user or mailing list wide level, including
anything that looks like an email address anywhere in the body. It
is actually more than regular obfuscation, but a cryptographic hash
mapping your actual address to a functional public.gmane.org email
address, which is spam filtered by gmane using TDMA challenge
response. see "mail delivery":
One additional feature which makes reading gmane nicer than reading
the raw mailing list, IMHO, for some lists: If an article is
crossposted to gmane.spam.detected it means gmane's spam filters
think this is spam. Killfile (or score down) any articles which
crosspost there and you get spam filtered mail via nntp.
> just a question to probe the issue -- if we were to use a smtp->nntp

Yes. You can make it so folks trying to post via gmane are denied.
Many lists on gmane are subscriber post only. Some folks read their
lists on gmane, but have no-mail subscriptions so they can still post
as subscribers.
> or restrict posting via the posting hosts's IP address?
I don't know if this option is supported. It sounds like a management
nightmare though, or at least something I would hate to ask anyone to
try to support.

It reads like news, but is not usenet as of right now: the gmane.*
heirarchy does not propagate to usenet. The data sits on a server in
Norway. If you run INN you can receive gmane.* as a normal newsfeed,
which is read only at this point (i beleive).

Understood. Thanks for considering the idea.
