Budget Battles Continue
President Obama's new budget has of course sparked a battle on Capitol Hill.
We know Republicans aren't happy with the president's newly unveiled budget, but neither are some Virginia Democrats.
In his budget the President is embracing a new way to tie Social Security payments to the rate of inflation. It's called the "Chained CPI" but let's get past the Washington jargon. What it amounts to is less money in those Social Security checks for future generations of seniors.
Virginia Democratic Congressman Bobby Scott was one of just a handful of Democrats to oppose the deal to avert going over the so-called fiscal cliff at the beginning of the year. At the time he argued against the bill because it only raised about six hundred billion dollars in taxes. Scott says he knew entitlement programs would eventually hit the chopping block because of that bill extending Bush-era tax cuts.
Other Virginia Democrats are keeping mum until they see the Social Security proposal flushed out.
Congressman Gerry Connolly says he might be able to accept it in exchange for tax increases from House Republicans.
Virginia Republican Scott Rigell sums the budget up in four words. "More spending, more taxes," he says.
Then there are the budget implications for Virginia's large military sector. The White House budget calls for a new round of base closures, called BRAC. It also proposes having service members pay more for their health care while shrinking their expected pay increase. Rigell calls the president's proposal for defense "disturbing."
Some Virginia Republicans say it's premature to have another independent commission look at military bases closures, in part because the commonwealth risks having a base closed if the proposal becomes law.
All told there's plenty in the president's budget that's angering lawmakers in both parties, but it moves the budget debate a step further in Washington. Now it's a waiting game to see if the two parties can move towards a broad budget agreement by the time the debt ceiling needs to be raised this summer.

Using a stone texture for the background of a business card or to enhance text on a brochure printing design is actually very simple with Photoshop. The best part about creating your own texture is you get to create a completely unique look tailored to your overall design. Below are 9 steps (or less, depending on your goals) to quickly make a stone texture, and a few extra steps on how to add it to a photo.Step 1Open a new document in Photoshop and color the background black. This is easy to do if you choose Background Color in the Background Contents drop down menu in the New document options box.
Step 2Make sure your Fill color is set to white and now apply some filters. First go to Filter>Render>Clouds and then go to Filter>Render>Difference Clouds. Step 3Finally go to Filter>Stylize>Emboss. Adjust the settings to get the look you desire. For my stone texture, I chose an Angle of 150 degrees and a height of 9.
Step 4You can leave the stone texture as a gray granite or change it to more of a brown or yellow color. To do this, go to Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation. Make sure to click on Colorize. To make my stone a brown color, I used a hue of 32, saturation of 25, and Lightness of -2. I also added some contrast by going to Image>Adjustments>Brightness/Contrast. I used a Brightness of 12 and Contrast of 49 (make sure Use Legacy is unchecked).
Step 5You can call your stone finished or add some cracks. First, find an image of a cracked sidewalk or some similar cracked cement look. Save the image on your desktop and then open it in Photoshop.
Now using the move tool, click on the cracked cement image and drag it onto your stone texture. Once you let go of the mouse, it should add the cracked image as a new layer above your stone texture. You may need to adjust the size of the cracked cement image to make it fit over your entire stone texture.
Step 6Now go to Edit>Free Transform and then the "Switch between free transform and warp modes" button in the upper right of the toolbar at the top of the page. Grab the handles on the grid that appears until the cracked cement image is centered on the stone texture as you want. Then hit Enter on the keyboard.
Step 7You will want to change the contrast of the cement cracks, so go to Image>Adjustments>Levels. Under Input Levels, drag the black and white sliders closer to the middle gray slider.
Step 8In the Layers palette at the top of the box, choose Darken from the drop down menu, and enter 75% in the Opacity box.
Step 9Last of all, click back on the stone texture layer (your first layer) and go to Filter>Noise>Add Noise. I used 10 for the Amount and clicked on Gaussian and Monochromatic. Save your stone texture and you are finished!
To add your texture to a photo:
Step 10First open your photo or image in Photoshop and create a new layer above this photo.
Step 11Open and drag your stone texture onto this new layer. Or you can simply drag the texture onto the photo to automatically create a new layer. You may need to adjust the size. Then choose Overlay in the top of the Layers palette. And your photo now has a unique textured look for your poster or brochure printing project!

Help The Gambia to Learn, an organisation based in Holland on Saturday inaugurated a new multi-purpose skills centre worth over D1m at Penyem Village. The inauguration ceremony was held at the new centre.
The skills centre, which has been furnished with typing machines, library, sewing machines, literacy classrooms, wood workshop among others, will serve not only as a vocational school but also as a citizenship education school for children and the youth.
Officially inaugurating the skills centre, Babucarr Suwareh, the Regional Education director of Region Two, spoke on the importance of skills training. The skills centre could enable this organisation to build a strong civil society in Penyem and its surrounding area by empowering students, youths and the community.
He expressed hope that the centre will play a significant role in making a difference in the admirable work the organisation already carries out.
Suwareh told the youth that they are the future leaders of this country, and expressed hope that the centre would help them to expand their horizons.
Corrie Jordan, the chairman of the organisation, explained that the charitable organisation is based in Holland. She disclosed that they have plans to build a lower basic school in Penyem.
The coordinator of the organisation, Bakary Kujabi disclosed that the organisation is sponsoring over 400 students in Penyem and its surrounding villages. He thanked the organisation for the gesture and assured them that they would make good use of the centre.
For his part, Kalilu Kolley, the alkalo of Penyem thanked Corrie and the group for the gesture. He said their dream of getting a skills centre has been realised.

Technical Abstract: Lindlar semihydrogenation of the tetrahydropyranyl ether of (E)-7-dodecen-5-yne-1-ol generated a mixture of Z,E-5,7-dodecadienol, over reduction products, (E)-7-dodecenol, Z-5-dodecenol, and a rearrangement product, E-6-dodecenol. Aliquots of the mixture of alcohols were converted to acetate and aldehyde mixtures. Field trapping experiments were conducted against the Siberian moth in Siberia, Russia, using traps baited with a virgin female moth or 100 microgram synthetic mixtures of the aldehyde, alcohols, and acetates alone or in combinations. The tests showed that an 1:1 aldehydes:alcohols blend was as attractive to males as virgin female moths. Additional field tests with combinations of individually pure compounds showed that a binary mixture of Z,E-5-7-dodecadienol and Z,E-5-7-dodecadienal (78:22) alone was a potent male sex attractant for the Siberian moth. The mixture will be useful as a monitoring tool for this destructive defoliator of conifer forests in Asia or as a surveillance too at ports in the USA where the pest might invade.

Many insurance agents quit soon after going through cold leads, precisely because cold leads can be exactly just that - cold. And many agents find that they can approach hundreds of people yet convince very few on an insurance policy.
All is not lost, however, as there are ways to tackle the cold market. One of these ways is to pre-qualify leads based on the person's actual need for insurance , and if he or she has the money to pay for it. You don't need to pay for your leads - there are actually many ways that you can gather free health insurance leads and turn them into paying customers.
Tip No. 1: Ask your friends and relatives for referrals.
Family and friends are very good sources of great leads, and when we say great leads, we mean that they are people who will most likely trust you by virtue of your association with the people they know. So, if you have an influential best friend, as ask him or her to refer you to some people. Then you can be well on your way to increasing your sales.

bone-in chicken parts
This was a wonderful, tasty, surprise! I did this on the grill (charcoal) with chicken legs and thighs. Considering it had only marinated roughly 2-3 hours, it was delicious! I used a bit of the marinade to baste during cooking. I'm glad it's early in the grilling season as I will surely get this in a couple more times before the cold weather returns.
Sorry but there is nothing we found fabulous about this dish. I have never had to throw out a dish before so this will be the first. I'm sorry but there is no way to salvage this chicken.

This turned out to be very good. The second time I made it I used part soy and part fish sauce. Everyone loved it.
A flavorful change of pace. Works even better when using boneless pork.
I love this recipe. It had wonderful flavours. I wasn't able to use soy sauce but used Maggi instead and it turned out great. I marinated it for a few hours making sure all the chicken was covered. tasty bbq chicken!!
Chicken was very good I made it for a family BBQ and every one loved it.
This is a great marinade, I used it on wings. BUT....you have to like Chinese 5 spice. It's a different kind of spice, with cloves, cinnamon, anise, anise & ginger.

Interior Plants
Maintaining plants indoors is very different from gardening outside; there is reduced light, restricted root growth, reduced need for water and nutrients, lack of moisture from the air, and adaptation to air conditioning and heat. Interior plants depend entirely on us to take care of them.
Before Purchase
Before making a large investment always do a little research!
Light and Temperature
The plants commonly used in our homes have been selected for their ability to adapt to interior conditions. Most have been grown "under shade" and acclimated to low light when you purchase them. You will have the best results by picking plants that have proven to be successful inside.
After purchasing your plants be careful not to expose them to sun or wind during the move home. Wind can shred leaves and break branches, and sun can scorch the leaves. Do not leave the plants in a hot car, it only takes a few minutes for the car to heat up leaving the plants lifeless. Likewise bringing a plant outside for a breath of fresh air can be fatal if allowed to bake in the sun. Also if you are moving them in the winter provide warmth during their transport. Plants are like people, they prefer moderate temperatures and do not like drastic fluctuations. Good locations for interior plants will be away from drafts like doors and air conditioning vents.
When artificial light is the only light available, 12-16 hours is desirable. If the plant has a flower this usually means it will need more light. (4 hours of direct sun a day.)
Over-watering is the number one cause of decline for plants in indoor locations. When in doubt, do not water! Let the soil dry out first then thoroughly water. Use your finger or soil probe to find out if a plant is dry enough to water. Probe into the soil as far as possible. Just because the top of the soil is dry does not mean the rest is dry. Under low light conditions the plant's growth rate slows so it doesn't take up much water. A plant that almost wilts from no water has a better recovery rate than if you over-watered it. A good rule-of-thumb is to water until the water starts to come out the bottom of the container, unless there is no drainage. With practice, the time to water can be determined by the feel of the soil or the weight of the plant.
Plants in low light conditions require very little fertilizer. In fact, the risk of damage from the buildup of excess fertilizers in the soil through over fertilization is worse than no fertilizer at all. For all green tropical interior plants use a balanced slow release fertilizer every 3-4 months at a rate specified by the manufacturer. Remember too little is better than too much. Watering slowly activates the fertilizer pellets giving the plant nutrients in small doses. Flowering plants may need a boost, use a general water soluble fertilizer once a week to keep them flowering and healthy.
Pests and Diseases
Mealybug, scale, and mites are among the most common pests to attack indoor plants. A routine inspection of the leaves and stems of your plants is recommended. A monthly cleaning of your plant with a sponge or soft cloth and a soapy solution is beneficial. It will not only take care of most pest problems but will also take care of the dust that tends to accumulate on many indoor plants. Most diseases occur when we over-water. Root rot, leaf yellowing, and leaf drops are symptoms to look for. In you notice these symptoms, let the plant dry out and try moving it to a location where it gets natural light. If the pot has no drainage you can replant it in a container that has good drainage.
Grooming and Cleaning
If you have done a good job of matching the plant to the location and regulating the watering, the need for grooming will be minimal. The occasional yellow leaf should be removed, and long runners on hanging baskets pinched to encourage the plant to fill in. Resist major pruning - most indoor plants do not have enough light to support healthy regrowth. Having a sharp pair of scissors is a great way to shape up a plant with old leaves. By cutting off the brown tips you can make your indoor plants look brand new.
Flowering Seasonal Plants
When it is cold outside, potted flowering plants can bring color indoors. If given a bright, sunny window flowering plants will continue to set new buds for months. Some varieties can be planted in the garden afterwards bringing years of continuous enjoyment. Depending on where you live, seasonal plants may have to be discarded when their flowering period is over. Doing research to see what will grow in your area is always your best bet.

It might be pointed out that software requires hardware to run it. This does not mean it is created by the hardware. So while Rowland's flame analogy may be correct, there are alternative metaphors. In fact the flame analogy seems more applicable to life than to consciousness, but this is not a new observation.

I just took a moment, in light of the Bubba Crosby signing, to look at the 40 man roster. Right now, if my count is right, there are 34 players listed on the 40 man roster, but two of them are on the 60 day (Ramierez and Claussen), so I believe they don't count towards the 40 man roster (or is that just during the season? - I don't think that's the case).
That leaves us at 32 players with Crosby. That leaves eight slots for trades, Free Agents or Rule V draftees. I think that leaves us with lots of flexibility.
Does that jibe with what others see?
(Note: There were three players placed on the 60 day who have declared Free Agency - Guardado, Mercker and Wilson).

Germinal (1885) is the thirteenth novel belonging to Émile Zola's vast twenty-volume series, Les Rougon-Macquart (1871-1893), in which, by tracing the fortunes of the various members of a single family, the writer sought to study the effects of hereditary influences and environmental factors on his characters and present a panoramic view of the society of the Second Empire (1852-1870), presided over by Napoleon III. Set in the coalfields of northern France during the period March 1866 to April 1867 and dealing with a miners' strike, Germinal was less controversial when it appeared than L'Assommoir, Nana, and Pot-Bouille, but it has maintained its standing as one of the …

First Street Gallery in Chelsea is pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by artist Kathi Packer from April 29th through May 24th, 2014.
In her exhibition titled, Bone Dry Silence, artist Kathi Packer creates complex paintings imbued with notions of paradise and impending calamity. Saturated hues exalt nature, specifically Africa's Sub-Sahara, where one expects life to be wild and lived freely in harmony with the land. Packer contrasts idyllic scenes of animals roaming leafy forests and drinking from pristine pools of water with images that convey a darker apocalyptic threat. This world is imperiled by persistent drought. In tandem, these two perspectives capture moments leading up to an uncertain and unalterable future.
Packer's narrative is not a literal interpretation of beasts dotting the plains, but a composite of memories, imagination and photos taken while traveling in Africa. A recurring theme of ambiguity weaves these evocative tales together. A wild animal that would normally visit a waterhole, instead, drinks from an industrial container. A boat delivering water is trapped in the absence of water. A wildebeest is as much a prey to a dry riverbed as it is to a lion. No humans are present, only their mark lingers and the hint of imminent catastrophe. Despite sounding the alarm, Packer's work celebrates this irreplaceable environment. The use of vibrant expressive color adds a surreal dimension to an otherwise weighty subject matter.
Kathi Packer has exhibited throughout the U.S. and abroad. Her work is in the permanent collections of The New Britain Museum of American Art, Galeria Nacional de Costa Rica, The University of Connecticut School of Medicine, The Phoenix Corporation and Hartford Hospital. She has received numerous awards for painting as well as fellowship awards from The Connecticut Commission on the Arts and from The Greater Hartford Arts Council. Packer lives and works in Connecticut.

- Hill's recognizes that some consumers have issues with corn, but they stand by the ingredient because their tests and data indicate that from a nutritional standpoint, corn is a digestible carbohydrate.
- Another controversial ingredient is chicken by-product, or chicken by-product meal. Critics point out that by-products are undesirable parts of a chicken left after prime pieces have been removed. In Hill's view, however, dogs love organs (heart, liver, etc), while chicken feet and beaks are high in flavor and nutrition. By-product chicken meal, once it's been finely ground, is a highly absorbed nutrient that differs from fresh chicken only in water content. It was also pointed out that chicken by-product is the "greenest" of ingredients because it uses the whole chicken with nothing gone to waste.
- Some of you also wondered about "meat by-products," an unfortunate ingredient name. Meat by-products are a good thing as they contain nearly 300% more protein that fresh chicken.
- One of you asked that I inquire about the source of fat in Hill's foods; It's pork and some chicken fat.
- Several of you asked about wheat gluten, and Hill's says they do use it in some, but not all diets because it's another high quality protein.
- What about soybean meal? Hill's told me – and the "foodies" I consulted on-line seem to agree - that soybean is a useful ingredient in dog food for its protein contribution.
- Just about everyone wanted to know about the source of the ingredients Hill's uses. Their lamb is from New Zealand and their beef is from the United States. Other ingredients are from countries where Hill "audits the quality control."

A Fu Kein Good Tattoo and PiercingRead MoreMost people don't think of tattoo parlors as an appropriate place to bring the kids to. The staff at A Fu Kein Good Tattoo and Piercing, however, want to change that perception, believing that there's no reason why kids shouldn't be there to see where Mom and Pop get their ink done. They maintain a kid-friendly policy, allowing supervised children to play video games, watch TV, or give their dolls Crayola-drawn tribal tattoos while the artists and piercers outfit the grownups with new body art in the shop's private rooms. The artists in residence specialize in a range of styles, sketching out everything from intricate lettering to realistic portraits and designs with psychedelic coloring. Additionally, the team can use pre-drawn designs or custom, hand-sketched designs of the boat anchor you've sworn undying love to. The staff also creates intricate designs for boys and girls' names, which customers can purchase if they already have a go-to tattoo guy.5051 Normandy Blvd.Jacksonville, FL US
East Coast Worldwide TattooRead MoreAlthough East Coast Worldwide staffs a core team of experienced artists, its personnel is constantly changing. That's because East Coast likes to switch things up, regularly inviting guest artists to join its team and bring their own artistic stylings to the custom studio. Upon completing simple or intricate designs, the artists detail thorough aftercare instructions such as singing lullabies to it as it drifts to sleep. Three weeks later, the team invites guests back to the studio to ensure that they have healed and to tweak any designs that need adjustments. Along with tattoos, East Coast's crew pierces body parts ranging from bellies and lobes to noses and eyebrows before adorning piercings with jewelry such as flesh tunnels and plugs.420 3rd St. SouthJacksonville Beach, FL US
A Pirate's Isle Art and Body StudioRead MoreBilled as "a modern art studio for modern art enthusiasts," A Pirate's Isle Tattoo Studio's artists create the kinds of masterpieces that belong on a canvas. And, in a way, they end up on one, if you consider the body to be a blank canvas, as they do. Will Arney and JT Webster use vivid colors to make body art pop, from a spray of pink flowers blooming along the top of a client's foot to a cluster of menacing skulls. In addition to the tattooing services, they also perform body piercings and apply permanent makeup.313 Julia StreetNew Smyrna Beach, FL US
Black Hive TattooRead MoreBlack Hive Tattoo, one of Jacksonville's premier tattoo parlors, opened in the Riverside neighborhood in 2009. Unassumingly located in a former one-story home, the shop is an emporium of artistry, etiquette and talent. Shop hours are infrequent: Tuesday through Friday, 5 to 8 p.m., but appointments can be made weeks in advance with any of the four on-staff artists via email. Walk-ins are not strictly a no-no, but most of the artists on staff are fully booked already, so don't plan on being seen the same day. The professional, clean space caters to an intelligent tattoo crowd, and rules about intoxication or showing up with a large posse to cheer you on are strictly adhered to. If you're just looking for a consultation, Black Hive's amenable staff will be happy to answer questions regarding cost, time involved and location logistics for each tattoo.2063 Gilmore StJacksonville, FL US
Rampant Lion TattoosRead MoreAt their studio in historic Riverside, the artists of Old School Electric Tattoos adorn bodies with both ink and piercings. Helmed by a master tattooist, body-art professionals possess experience in an array of styles, such as East Coast, West Coast, portraits, and illustrations. They also apply their experience in custom designs, helping guests develop original images or dynamic renderings of their social security number. Beside the tattoo team, piercers work under the direction of several master practitioners who studied with renowned body-modification artists such as Fakir Musafar and Steve Haworth. Each member of Old School Electric Tattoos' staff complies with certified sterilization standards and biohazard practices.917 King StJacksonville, FL US
Attractions SalonRead MoreAttraction Salon's experienced stylists, aestheticians, and nail technicians make a point of welcoming their visitors with open arms and plush salon chairs. Perhaps due to this uncommon hospitality, the salon has developed a reputation for serving a multicultural base of clientele that includes women and men alike. Stylists invoke a chorus of clips and snips with their shears, forming flattering shapes or enhancing the look and health of hair with highlights, deep conditioning, and texturizing treatments. Nail technicians busy themselves with the other kind of keratin, whittling nails into elegant shapes during manicures and pedicures or applying full sets of glittery acrylics. Faces likewise sparkle after one of five facials that cater to dry and acne-prone skin, rejuvenating complexions with cleansing and exfoliating techniques. On the other side of the salon, spray-tanning and waxing treatments prepare bodies for lounging on beaches or napping inconspicuously in bronze-sculpture gardens.Suburban Professional Center, 4509 NW 23rd Ave, Ste 5Gainesville, FL US

By Thomas Woodgate, Pagemasters
The New Zealand Breakers stormed into the 2013 Grand Final by steamrolling the Sydney Kings 99-88 in Game 2 of their semi-final series on Sunday afternoon.
The Breakers did the damage in the third quarter behind veteran superstar CJ Bruton, out-scoring the Kings 28-12 to wipe out the Kings' 10-point lead and knock the wind from their sails.
"Whenever teams face an elimination there's always a desperation and an urgency that takes them to another level, it's a case of weathering the storm and in the first half I don't think we did that," Breakers coach Andrej Lemanis.
"It's a case of hanging around when things aren't going well and in the second half we went up another notch."
Up until that point the Kings' relentless pressure at both ends of the court was paying off, as they fought for every ball in a desperate bid to keep their season alive.
With co-captains Ben Madgen (29 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists) and James Harvey (25 points) draining points across the four quarters, as well as the industrial work of Ian Crosswhite (11 points, 6 rebounds, 3 blocks) and Darnell Lazare (8 points, 11 rebounds) on the inside, the Kings did their best to unsettle the defending champions.
And when a Harvey three-pointer opened up a 10-point lead early in the third quarter the signs were this series could have another game in it.
But rather than panic, the Breakers drew on their play-off experience to turn the tide in their favour.
With giant centre Alex Pledger (18 points, 12 rebounds) proving a nuisance once again inside, and Corey Webster (12 points) the orchestrator off the dribble, the Breakers were always waiting for their chance to explode.
"The beauty of this group is we get other people involved and it's a fun way to play," Lemanis said.
After drawing level off a 10-point scoring run, the Breakers waited until the final minute in the third quarter to make their move.
A seven-point scoring burst from veteran CJ Bruton (who scored 20 of his 21 points in the second half) and a buzzer-beating three-pointer from Webster opened up an unassailable 10-point lead with 10 minutes remaining.
"Madgen drilled me in the chest and I told him to do it again and see what happens and he did, so it woke me up," Bruton said of going on the scoring run in the second half.
"We didn't do the right things at the beginning of the game, but we've got a lot of wins this year by coming back and grinding out wins and our experience showed today."
It was clear from the outset that the Kings came to a play, and with both teams exchanging explosive alley-oops and wide-open threes the game got off to a flyer.
With the first quarter shot clock winding down a three-point bomb from Harvey have the home team a 26-23 edge, prompting a fist pump from the veteran guard and making the belief on the Kings' bench – and indeed in a packed Kingdome – clearly evident.
"You look at the first half and we played with the endeavours, the mindset and the smarts to get a good lead and I think we weren't able to do that consistently over the four quarters," Kings Coach Shane Heal said.
The Kings more than held their own through the next two periods, but as the tide turned late in the third quarter there was no stopping the Breakers as they booked a spot in the grand final to face the Perth Wildcats.

Valve has confirmed that Counter-Strike: Condition Zero is now being developed by Ritual Entertainment, the studio behind the upcoming Star Trek: Elite Force II first-person shooter. Condition Zero is a single-player game based on the extremely popular multiplayer action game Counter-Strike. The game initially started out at Rogue Entertainment but was long in development at Gearbox Software, which showed a build of the game at GDC and E3 earlier this year.
There's no word on whether Ritual will build on the content that Gearbox created for Condition Zero. However, there will be more information soon, as Valve and Ritual have a presentation scheduled at the CPL's Counter-Strike Championships that will take place December 21 in Dallas, Texas.
Gearbox will also be at the CPL event showing the PC version of Halo. Gearbox has had a number of other projects this year, including the PC versions of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and James Bond 007: NightFire.

The article containing Denny Hecker's sentencing is full of numbers and potential to become quite confusing to even the the most avid reader.
Dee DePass and David Phelps did a clean effort in portraying the information.
The meat of the article was in the beginning, followed by quotes from Hecker, his family and friends, and his attorney.
Besides the evil that this case involves, the writers made an effort to include opinions of Hecker in a positive light as well.
The reporters also ordered the information in time relevant order. Hecker may have pleaded guilty in September, but the actual sentencing is what the story is highlighting.
Information was presented in the most efficient way when referencing to the possible structures of a news story.

The Starkville Police Department received a favorable report by a Mississippi Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission (MSLEAC) evaluation team, officials say.
The team spent several days at the SPD last week as part of the department's state reaccreditation process.
The SPD was first accredited by MSLEAC in 2008 and faced a review by the agency after a 3-year period to maintain its accreditation. That review included an on-site evaluation by a three-member MSLEAC team last week to ensure the department complied with 122 professional standards.
The MSLEAC evaluation team — Brenda Smith, Billy Lane and Bob Morgan — conducted a rigorous inspection on all aspects of the department's operations, interviewed community members at length and conducted a 2-hour call-in session to allow members of the public to comment on any concerns regarding the department.
During an exit interview at the conclusion of the evaluation visit, the MSLEAC team told Police Chief David Lindley that their report to the commission would be favorable when it convenes in November at the Mississippi Law Enforcement Officers Training Academy in the Jackson area.
Upon receiving reaccreditation from MSLEAC, SPD officials will travel to Baltimore, Md., in March to receive recognition by the national Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies.
The Police Department's reaccreditation process was spearheaded by Capt. Frank Nichols and officers Laura Hines Roberson and Holley Slaughter.
The MSLEAC accreditation program focuses on six primary goals:
• Strengthening crime prevention and control capabilities.
• Formalizing essential management procedures.
• Establishing fair and nondiscriminatory personnel practices.
• Improving service delivery.
• Solidifying cooperation and coordination.
• Boosting citizen and staff confidence in the agency.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs in 3D tops US box office
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, the latest 3D movie to grace the cinema, has shot straight to the top of the US box office, showing consumers have an urge to see 3D movies at the cinema.
The movie, which opened over the weekend, accounted for 50% of the weekend's receipts taking and estimated $30.3 million in box office takings and $16 million in 3D receipts, over half the total.
For those interested, the film was released in 3119 locations, and the majority of the play dates were RealD and other 3D bookings, says 3D stereoscopic 3D glasses maker RealD.
The family comedy grossed nearly $20 million, more than its closest competitor: Matt Damon's The Informant!, which debuted in second place with $10.5 million.
The success of the movie has been put down to it being the widest theatrical 3D film release to date.
The film centres around a town where food falls from the sky like rain.
The news comes as plans to rollout a further 2000 3D cinemas have been outlined at a recent 3D conference in California. Cinema chains hope that by May around 6000 screens will be 3D enabled.

The Only Stop Smoking Tip You'll Ever Need
If you've been looking for quit smoking tips online, you probably already know that the internet is both a blessing and a curse. It gives you access to everything from scientific data, to personal testimonials, and to more stop smoking tips than you could ever use. The problem is that it becomes too much. With so much information, so much advice, and so many different ideas about how to quit, it becomes hard to do anything at all. You freeze up, and you don't know where to begin.
You probably have your own reason to quit smoking, and you know why to quit smoking is the right thing to do. But there are still too many unanswered questions in your head, like what are the best methods to stop smoking, what are stop smoking side effects, and what is the easiest quit smoking technique that you can use.
That's why I've come up with a one-size-fits-all stop smoking tip, but you'll have to bear with me while I explain. Here it is:
Understand that you always smoke for the same reason.
At first glance, this may seem just plain false. Most smokers habitually light up because of certain triggers, which you know as well as I do: boredom, finishing a meal, leaving work, driving, coffee, alcohol, stress, seeing others smoke—just about anything, really. You may have 20 or 30 different smoking triggers. So, how can I say that you always smoke for the same reason?
Here's the thing: Triggers are not causes. If they were, quitting would be easy. You could just, say, avoid drinking alcohol, or walk instead of drive, or turn around and run whenever you see someone else smoking. But think about it. Why wouldn't this work?
The answer is simple. It wouldn't work because you'll always find triggers. If you remove one trigger, the thing in your brain that causes your addiction will find a new one. This is what makes nicotine addiction so sinister, and it's what so many people who give quit smoking tips don't understand.
But with my stop smoking tip, you only need to do one thing. Whenever you feel a craving coming on, forget about the trigger. Instead, fight back where the craving lives—inside your brain.
I'll try not to get too science-y here. When you crave, it's because years of addiction have weakened your natural dopamine-production capability. Dopamine is the brain chemical that gives you that pleasurable feeling of reward. A shortage of it makes you feel empty inside, like life's not worth living without cigarettes. In this situation, there are two paths you can take:
- Do something else to naturally stimulate dopamine. Buy something. Earn money. Play a video game. Exercise. Take a hot bath. Watch sports. Eat sweet food. All of these activities stimulate dopamine. But keep changing it up; doing the same one over and over could just create a new addiction.
- Be strong. If you remember that all your cravings are caused by one thing, it's easier to be strong. In the long run, you'll be better off if you simply let cravings come and go. Invest all your strength in suffering through them. If you're having trouble, try things like free stop smoking hypnosis, and remind yourself that this temporary pain will toughen you up.
If you don't believe me that this is the only stop smoking tip you need, try it. Arm yourself with the knowledge that there is only one thing causing all your cravings, and develop a repeatable process to fight back each time.

Travel Tips with a Sensitive Gut (2007)
Health for Body and Mind
Reducing the Odds of Breast Cancer
The Food-Mood Connection
Natural Ways to Boost your Energy
The information in this website is presented for educational purposes only. This information is not intended as a substitute for diagnosis and treatment by a licensed professional.
Debbie Sarfati
of my clients, I'll call her Jennifer, came to my office suffering
from extreme fatigue and complained that everything in life felt
like a challenge, including her typical daily routine. Jennifer
was always getting sick. If something was going around the office,
Jennifer was the first one to catch it and the last one to get rid
of it. Dave, another client, came to see me because he was battling
a cycle of elation and depression in both mood and energy.
too experienced extreme exhaustion and lacked the strength to get
through an average day. A look at both Jennifer's and Dave's
diets revealed that their depression, lethargy, and malaise was
most likely related to the foods they consumed regularly.
you know that the foods you eat have a significant effect on both
your mental and emotional state? If you have ever reached for a
cup of coffee to keep you awake or attentive, you have experienced
the food-mood connection firsthand. The foods you consume not only
affect your body physically, but effect how your mind functions
as well. There is a wealth of evidence linking what we eat to how
we feel, yet many people unknowingly choose foods that aggravate
depression, insomnia, fatigue, food cravings, stress, memory-loss,
and prevent mental and emotional wellness (Source: Food & Mood
by Elizabeth Somer).
diets contribute to much of the mood disorders in our country. Mood
disorders affect 19 million Americans and $20 billion is spent annually
on treatment (Source: Healthy Healing by Linda Page). Our food creates
the quality of our blood. When we eat healthy foods, we fuel our
bodies with anti-oxidants, vitamins, and minerals. When we eat junky
foods, we fill our bodies with chemicals, preservatives, and refined
and artificial ingredients. Because the quality of our blood effects
the functioning of every cell, tissue, and organ, our diets influence
our minds, thoughts, feelings, and emotions.
of us know that what we eat today has an impact on our state of
health down the road. However, many people don't realize
how immediate the mood-food connection actually works. What you
eat for breakfast will affect your thinking, cravings, and energy
a few hours later. How you feel right now is partially affected
by what you ate a few hours ago. For example, the caffeine in coffee
may increase your capacity for intellectual tasks, however, the
boost that coffee gives is often followed by a huge decline in mood
and energy. Chocolate contains an amphetamine-like substance associated
with pleasure and love, but may leave you feeling mildly depressed
later. A large pasta dinner often leaves you depleted and sleepy
shortly afterwards, and the sweet treats that most Americans consume
ultimately result in fatigue and sadness.
many people have simply grown accustomed to feeling "blah"
and most are unaware that something can be done to change how they
feel. If you are feeling blah, what can you do? Consider whole foods;
unprocessed and pure in nature, these foods are a powerhouse of
goodness for the body. By switching to a more nourishing diet, you
will begin to experience an increase in your mood, energy, mental
clarity and productivity. You will notice a decrease in fatigue,
sadness, forgetfulness and confusion. Your body will start to create
a natural state of order and balance.
Self Healing Cookbook by Kristina Turner, discusses eating to create
a desired emotional state. Here are some tips to start with:
Tense, Angry or Stuck?
MORE crisp, succulent veggies like cabbage, green beans, lettuce,
cucumber, cauliflower, celery, carrots, and snap peas. These vegetables
will help you relax, lighten up, and feel clear. Have them lightly
cooked or in salads.
Super-Sensitive or Too Emotional?
MORE cooked veggies, especially roots (daikon, carrot, turnip, yam),
winter squash (butternut, acorn), and sturdy greens (kale, collards).
These will calm you and get you down to business. They will give
you a firmer grip on life and fuel productive creativity.
Tense, Overheated or Overworked?
LESS salt, meat, eggs, cheese, and hard, baked foods. These foods
are heavy and contracting for your body. They make it hard for your
body to relax.
Fatigued, Spacey or Moody?
LESS sugar, raw foods, cold foods, cold drinks, and alcohol. These
foods are lightening and expansive for your body and too many can
put your head in the clouds.
also suggest you start a food-mood journal. For three days, see
if you can notice how certain foods make you feel. Let me know what
you discover!

A voter in Mombasa has moved to court seeking to block Ali Hassan Joho from running for governor on grounds that his academic qualifications are questionable.
Janet Ndago says Joho and his running mate Hazel Katana are not holders of valid degrees from universities recognised in Kenya as required of candidates vying for specified electoral positions.
Ndago, a registered voter in Likoni constituency, claims the two are using "unorthodox and fraudulent means" to pretend that they are holders of degrees from universities recognised in Kenya when they are not.
Through lawyer Kibe Mungai, Ndago wants the court to issue a declaration that Joho and Katana do not meet the basic academic qualification recognised in Kenya to vie for governor and deputy governor in Mombasa.
She says she is afraid her right to be represented by a duly qualified governor and his deputy will be violated, as the IEBC is set to confirm the nomination of the two tomorrow, yet they are not qualified. Ndago has sued the Kenya National Examination Council, the IEBC, the University of Nairobi and the Attorney General.
Before her case is heard, the voter wants the court to order KNEC to furnish her with certified copies of the politicians KCSE examination result slips.
Ndago also wants the UON ordered to supply her with certified copies of transcripts for any degree course that Joho may have enrolled for at the university.
She wants certified confirmation of Joho's graduation in the degree course he enrolled for. Ndago says the documents are important in her case as they will enable her to effectively and meaningfully object to their candidature.
She argues that under the constitution and the Elections Act, candidates for governor and his deputy must be holders of a degree from a university recognised in Kenya.
Also sought is a declaration that the nomination of Joho and Katana to contest for the two top seats in Mombasa will violate her rights under Article 38 of the Constitution. Ndago wants the court to declare their nomination null and void, if it finds the two not fit to run. The application will be heard today.
