Heath enters the weekend series with a career-high 10-game hitting streak, which also marks Penn State's longest of the season.
Last week, the native of Huntersville, N.C. finished 9-for-18 in five games to improve his season average from .317 to (at the time) .358. He finished with one home run, seven RBI and three runs scored. He also posted a hit in all five games to improve his hitting streak to a career-high eight games.
The highlight of his weekend against Hofstra included a 3-for-4 effort in Game Two of Saturday's doubleheader with a double, run scored and three RBI. He then went 2-for-4 with a walk and run scored in the series finale.
At Pittsburgh (3/24), Heath hit his third home run in as many games, a long three-run shot for his seventh long ball of the season. That propelled Penn State to a 3-0 first-inning advantage.
Heath had a monster performance at the Coca-Cola Classic, playing in three of four games with a .455 average (5-for-11) along with a double, two home runs, 10 RBI and six runs scored. He also had four walks, improving his on-base percentage to .600 for the week.
In total, Heath leads the Lions with a career-high seven home runs, nine doubles, 27 RBI, .685 slugging percentage and 1.091 OPS (on-base plus slugging). Penn State's cleanup hitter is also hitting .348, starting 22 games - 16 at catcher and the other six at DH.
His hits have come at huge moments of games, starting in the season-opener vs. Cincinnati when his solo home run in the sixth inning broke a 1-1 deadlock.
Then against Notre Dame, his seventh-inning long ball pulled the Lions within one while his ninth-inning home run tied the score at eight to force extra innings. They came in consecutive at-bats to tie a career-high for home runs in a game.
Against McNeese State, his home run doubled Penn State's lead from three (4-1) to six (7-1), serving as the key knockout blow on the way to a 12-6 win.
He then hit home runs in consecutive games against Winthrop and Kent State at the Coca-Cola Classic. His first came against Winthrop and marked his first-career grand slam.
Heath has also been strong defensively, posting a .989 fielding percentage while throwing out 32 percent of potential base stealers (9-of-28).
In total, 16 of his 31 hits (52 percent) this season have gone for extra bases.

Increasing brand visibility
NETGEAR's solutions spanned a wide range of customers and end users, requiring the company to communicate its "Smart IT" value proposition to multiple audiences. Channel and retail partners were becoming increasingly important and needed to be communicated to directly alongside end-users. In addition to demonstrating its solutions capabilities, NETGEAR needed to showcase that its products were indeed best-in-class and could stand out in a saturated marketplace that was driven by price and not necessarily value.
NETGEAR recognised that a diverse end user audience meant a diverse public relations program that showcased products and company expertise with the underlying "Smart IT" message. Weber Shandwick worked with NETGEAR to develop a targeted PR program that would reach the wide range of their customer base including general consumers, small-medium businesses, mid-enterprise IT managers and retail and channel partners. Instead of relying solely on new products and company news, the team developed a strategic program that combined product reviews, forward features and thought leadership to deliver the NETGEAR value proposition to each of its target audiences.
Within the first six months of engagement with Weber Shandwick, NETGEAR's overall media coverage nearly doubled what they had achieved in the previous 12 months. The Weber Shandwick team generated more than 50 product reviews and 150 pieces of coverage within the first two quarters of 2011 split across consumer products, SMB solutions and mid-enterprise solutions. In addition to the coverage, the team also managed and executed several global executive media briefings with key ANZ media.

|Quan Sturdivant ILB North Carolina
|Ht: 6'1″
Wt: 240
|Good overall size. Decent athleticism. Tremendously productive at North Carolina. Experience at outside and inside linebacker. Looks very fluid dropping into coverage (played safety in high school). Very reliable tackler and can deliver the hard hit on occasion. Has all the skills necessary to be a prototypical 4-3 inside linebacker.
|Arrested for marijuana possession in 2010. Missed five games due to a hamstring injury in 2010. Inconsistent as a pass rusher. Doesn't consistently shed blocks and get into the backfield. Lacks elite sideline-to-sideline speed and mobility.
|Had he stayed healthy in 2010, Sturdivant could have put together the type of season that may have shot him up draft boards. He is a prototypical 4-3 inside linebacker and in a weak class for the position he has a chance to come off the board higher than his consensus grades may indicate. He isn't the most talented linebacker in this year's class, but he is one of the more polished players and could make an immediate impact.

HUD Funds Eligible Projects According to Communities' Priorities
RCED-00-191: Published: Jul 24, 2000. Publicly Released: Jul 24, 2000.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6520
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) funding of Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act projects, focusing on: (1) what process HUD uses to select projects for funding, whether this process is consistent with relevant statutes, and how HUD treats new projects and projects that have been funded in the past (renewal projects); (2) the extent to which HUD funds projects that communities rank as high-priority under their Continuums of Care, and why some high-priority projects are not funded while some low-priority projects are funded; and (3) whether communities face any common problems when applying for funds from HUD, and what actions are needed to correct these problems.
GAO noted that: (1) HUD selects projects for funding on the basis of a three-step process that is consistent with the requirements in relevant statutes, and it does not distinguish between new or renewal projects; (2) under the selection process, HUD considers: (a) communities' overall strategies for addressing homelessness; (b) whether the projects meet the applicable program standards set in the McKinney Act; and (c) the relative need for homeless assistance funds for each community; (3) HUD ranks all eligible projects and awards grants to these projects in the order they are ranked nationally, until the funds available for the competition are depleted; (4) most projects that communities ranked as high priority were awarded funding in 1998 and 1999; (5) for example, in 1999, 92 percent of the projects that were ranked in the top 25 percent of each community's priority list were funded, for those communities that had between 4 and 16 projects on their list; (6) however, for those communities that had three or fewer projects on their priority list, the project identified as the top priority was funded between 34 to 70 percent of the time; (7) furthermore, in those instances in which high-priority projects were not funded under the competition and low-priority projects were funded, it was always because the higher-ranked projects did not meet the applicable program's eligibility requirements; (8) most applicants generally understand the application and paperwork requirements necessary to compete for HUD grants; (9) however, more than one third of the communities that applied for funds in 1999 had significant problems in understanding the application requirements or completing the paperwork; (10) representatives of these communities cited a variety of difficulties in completing the application requirements and in getting information from HUD field office staff about the program and these requirements; (11) for example, some communities reported difficulties caused by the time-consuming and resource-intensive paperwork requirements and the lack of clear instructions and definitions, as well as difficulty in understanding HUD's selection process; and (12) community representatives GAO spoke with suggested a number of actions that HUD could take to alleviate the problems they experienced, such as better training for applicants and field office staff, more use of technology to provide access to information, and a simpler application format.

Alta Irrigation District says wild hogs caused a canal to break and flood a vineyard and homes Sunday night outside of Minkler.
"Right now, it's not looking too good for us, we could lose anywhere between from 15% to 20% of the crop," says Michael Shoffner, with Michael Shoffner Farming.
Water was sent down the canal on Sunday morning. At 6:00 p.m. part of the wall near Highway 180 and Frankwood broke. The irrigation district turned the water off at 6:30 p.m. They say the walls are lined with concrete but it wasn't enough.
"We were just getting our first crop of cantaloupe and watermelon and our corn was starting to come in," says Alice Dedmon looking at her drowning garden.
Everyone's working to pump the water out of the vineyard and garden in hopes of saving the crop.
The canal will be fixed by next week.

Often, personal injury and wrongful death due to police brutality are related directly to the use of Tasers.
"Taser" is an acronym for "Thomas A. Swift's Electric Rifle," a reference to juvenile adventure book character Tom Swift. Yet a Taser is hardly child's play.
A Taser is a weapon that shoots two dart-like electrodes at its victims, then sending electric shocks through wire intended to stun a victim into submission, rendering him helpless and able to be controlled without excessive force.
When the Taser electroshock weapon was introduced into widespread use in the early 1990s, it was touted as a "non-lethal" alternative to firearms, to be used to subdue criminals in situations that did not warrant the use of a deadly weapon.
However, though the manufacturer as well as many law enforcement agencies continue to argue that Tasers have reduced the need for officers to draw firearms and therefore resulted in fewer deaths, many civil rights groups and concerned citizens point to the more than 200 deaths that have resulted from Tasers used by law enforcement officers as evidence that Tasers are taking lives.
One of the contributing factors to these Taser injuries and Taser deaths is the increasing use of Tasers to subdue people who are not a serious threat to law enforcement officers.
Instead of being used only in situations in which firearms would be used, Tasers are more and more frequently used to simply subdue criminals in any kind of arrest situation.
Officers may be subject to laws governing excessive force and police brutality because they sometimes risk lives unnecessarily when using Tasers.
Further, the news over the past few years has offered verifiable reports of police officers using tasers on individuals who are handicapped, pregnant, mentally-disabled or non-English-speaking, in addition to those who were simply objecting to an officer's aggression or inability to explain details of an arrest.
The rise of cell phone camera technology and Internet video databases such as YouTube and LiveLeak has given the public more opportunity than ever to capture and display videos of Taser incidents that are often astonishingly graphic.
One of the explanations that Taser manufacturer Taser International as well as many coroners and law enforcement officials give for the elevated number of deaths connected to use of tasers over the past few years is the presence of a medical condition called "excited delirium."
According to some medical experts, this state occurs when an individual gets agitated (as in a high-stress situation of a police chase or arrest) to the point where he or she loses control of body motions and actions.
When shocked with the 50,000 k of electrical power that a Taser delivers, a person in this high state of agitation can have a heart failure that results in death.
However, critics of this view point to the fact that even though coroners will make reference to it in autopsy reports, "excited delirium" is not technically a medical condition that is recognized by the American Medical Association.
Though many individuals do seem to experience an elevated state of excitement during the high-stress situation of an arrest, in fact it would be likely that an individual would have to be significantly overweight as well as suffering from other potential medical conditions for "excited delirium" to be properly identified as the cause of death.
Be warned from the start that Taser injury verdicts and Taser wrongful death verdicts are not easy to win. Law enforcement officials see Tasers as a safe device for applying non-lethal electrical shocks, and it's not easy to convince them otherwise if you or a loved one have suffered injuries as a result of a Taser.
Just like in police brutality cases, it's often difficult to find witnesses to corroborate a story against law enforcement as well. Settlements with the city involved are often the only possibility for compensation. Injury lawyers can help.

NEW YORK—Small businesses have an even smaller margin for error than ever, but the right use of technology could put them on a level playing field with national corporations, according to a report released by the Center for an Urban Future.
Businesses with less than 20 employees make up over 90 percent of New York City's businesses, but unfortunately, the report says, there is too much of a technology gap in these neighborhood establishments. Better technology could help small businesses "expand their customer base, reduce their costs, and become more efficient," the report says.
Over 80 percent of the businesses aren't effectively using the technology available by creating websites, using online marketing, digital inventory tracking, or automated payroll systems. Only 60 percent are using an email with a professionalized domain name (as opposed to a @aol.com or @yahoo.com, the report says); and barely two-thirds are using social media.
However, most respondents said they do plan to adopt more technology—over 77 percent of low-to-moderate (LMI) income businesses and over 90 percent of non-LMI businesses.
Why Not?
According to the respondents, the two main reasons for not adopting more technology are the cost of doing so (47 percent), and lack of awareness (32 percent).
Denise Porcaro, owner of the flower shop Flower Girl in the Lower East Side, said in the report that she was reluctant to start a website for her company. She opened her company in 2007 but only launched her website last year, and has found that her sales have risen because what her customers wanted was to be able to browse the selection of flowers from home.
A lot of small business owners say, "I have a website but I am not getting any business," according to Eduardo Giraldo, former head of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Queens, in the report. "But it doesn't work that way. You have a website and you have to advertise and market that website," he said.
In addition to launching a website and implementing e-commerce systems, social media is inexpensive and makes a big difference, the report says. It helps business owners develop better relationships with their customer base. Social media also allows businesses that don't require e-commerce to develop a web presence with Facebook or Twitter without the hassle of designing a website.
"If you divided technical assistance organizations between pre- and post-startup service providers, there is far more support for start-up businesses," said Paul Quintero, CEO of AccionUSA, according to the report. "But the better bang for the buck is to help existing businesses."
By taking an existing establishment that has already made significant investments in their business and positioning it for growth, there is a quicker opportunity to create more jobs than with start-ups.
More Help
A 25 percent increase of small businesses using sufficient technology should be a goal for the city within the next three years, suggested the report. The NYC Department of Small Businesses (SBS) offers programs and grants for technology education and renovation on a regular basis, and the NYC Business Solutions Centers offer courses on social media and e-commerce as well.
But some businesses don't have the money to upgrade systems on their own, and the education offered for free is limited. For example, many Business Solution Centers in the city offer courses on QuickBooks, an accounting program, but there are currently no classes in Spanish.
The report recommends creating more education initiatives, such as an "AmeriCorps-like small business technology corps" to encourage collaboration between small neighborhood shops and bodegas and tech-savvy recent college graduates to help implement the necessary technology.

So, I had one of "those" experiences this morning...
I work in an office park in Hermitage with a few dozen other businesses. I park in a covered area which is also where all of the smokers gather to do their thing. I'm standing there taking off my gear when this guy comes out to smoke and he says, "Wow, I can't believe you rode that thing this morning". I said, "It's not bad out, and my gear keeps me pretty comfortable". He looks at my bike and says, " I've got a Harley at home. If I lived closer I might ride in too, but I live over in Mt. Juliet". I said, "You ought to. I live in Bellevue and it's about a 30 mile run each way. It's a nice way to start the day".
He mumbled somethig and wondered over to smoke with his buddies.
I'm thinking to myself, this guy can't ride his Harley from Mt. Juliet to Hermitage? WTF???
Suddenly I felt like a real bad ass, which is pretty rare for an old, bald, fat guy on a KLR.

New Gaerne G-Midland Adventure Boot

Trials and Street
I've just bought a trials bike that I will use just for playing on occasionaly and maybe the odd competition here and there, but not lots of harcore regular use. I also have a GS1200 for road and some very easy DS work. I'm looking for a boot with enough flex and a suitable sole for the trials riding, but enough protection for the road and DS riding on the big bike. I have Gaerne MX boots already and they are way to stiff and have a slick sole.
I can't really tell from the web whether the G Midland is "the" boot, or whether the Balance is stiffer or less stiff than that? - Any advice on which boots might fit the bill, from Gaerne or other makes? I'd sooner sacrifice a little flex at the trials end of the spectrum to gain the protection at the road end. I started off thinking the Gaerne Adventures or the Sidi Discovery's would fit the bill, but am starting to think they may be too soft and offer too little in the way of protection.
Appreciate any advice you can give.

Where are the traineeships located?
The traineeships are currently available in a selected number of Local Health Districts, requiring that the trainee is located in these areas of NSW. It is possible that the numbers of sites will increase, depending on the funding available to expand training sites. Trainees may have the capacity to rotate through various locations within any one Local Health District to gain experience in different workplace settings and develop professional networks.
Would I get study leave?
You will be eligible for 1 day of study leave per week during term time.
What are the chances that I will get a job at the end of the training Initiative?
Traineeships are temporary; however, the Aboriginal Population Health Training Initiative is intended to provide an avenue for Aboriginal people to specialise in population health and gain employment as a population health professional in the health system. Employment depends on a range of factors such as funding and availability of positions, their suitability and a graduate's ability and interest in the positions.
Master of Public Health
Do I need to pay for my MPH?
The Master of Public Health (MPH) is paid for by the NSW Ministry of Health. This includes all coursework fees, resources to support studying and travel/technology to aid access to the course material.
Can I study my MPH at any University in NSW?
You are able to study your Master of Public Health at any university in NSW. To support your decision, there is a booklet released by the Ministry
Where to Study my Master of Public Health?
It is important that you choose a Master's degree which suits your needs and your style of learning. You make this decision, with the support from your family, community, workplace supervisor and the APHTI Program Coordinator at the Ministry of Health.
What if I am not close to the university where I want to do the MPH?
Many Master of Public Health degrees allow you to study by completing subjects in block units (week-long intensive sessions) and also by correspondence. You can appraise these options in the booklet
Where to Study my Master's of Public Health?
What happens if I am unsuccessful at the MPH?
It is a requirement of being a trainee, that you maintain an academic enrolment in the Master's degree. If you do not meet required standards to pass subjects in the degree, it is likely you will have to re-attempt these subjects. In this case, the academic program coordinators at the university, along with your workplace supervisors and the APHTI Program Coordinator at the Ministry of Health would meet with you to consider the things that are preventing your progress and ways these problems can be addressed, for example, by providing more learning support, rearranging the academic timetable or changing universities.
These situations will be managed on a case-by-case basis with support and collaboration from the partners involved in your training.

Marketing Jobs
Sales and Customer Service
Many marketing careers are available in sales and sales-related fields. Openings can be found in a wide variety of organizations, including manufacturers, wholesalers and service organizations.
Product Management
Many companies have given product managers major responsibility for determining customer needs, and translating these into goods and services that will satisfy them. Product managers work closely with engineers, manufacturing executives and others concerned with the product offering of a firm.
Marketing Research
The importance of marketing research has grown rapidly over the past decade. A marketing major in this field gathers information needed by management concerning the marketing environment in which a firm operates. They often provide data used for internal control and decision-making, as well.
Advertising and Sales Promotion
These professionals use television, radio, newspapers, magazines and other outlets to present information about goods and services, and to complement the sales force. Marketing careers in advertising may be pursued in independent agencies as well as in advertising departments of manufacturing, wholesale and retail firms.
The distribution of raw materials and finished products through the economic system has expanded greatly during the past five years. Logistics management deals with the development of efficient distribution systems in support of manufacturing and marketing.
A variety of retailing organizations seek individuals with the type of background and training provided in the marketing curriculum. Career tracks in retailing can lead to management positions, as buyers or in-store operations managers, with a marketing degree.
Managing Marketing for Non-Profit Organizations
Non-business organizations, such as governmental agencies, hospitals, charitable organizations, schools and universities, are rapidly recognizing the need for marketing managers. A number of marketing degree jobs in public information, consumer relations, pricing analysis and marketing analysis are available.
International Marketing
Marketing careers are available in the headquarters of corporations with international subsidiaries, as well as with international business partners of domestic firms. International management positions are also available. An increasing number of positions are arising with international companies that have begun operations in the United States. Many of the people in international business positions are recruited from those with marketing backgrounds, because marketing is the function that most directly deals with the business environment, whether international or domestic.

I'm gonna warn you: that this blog post will contain terribly crafted (yet clever) puns. If you hate these, please read on.
At Blizzcon, Blizzard announced their latest WoW expansion: World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria. Nearly everyone in the WoW community was surprised by the decision to pursue this direction with the Lore, causing pandemonium in trade chat realms everywhere!
The Pandaren Empire started as an April Fool's day joke in Warcraft III in 2002 with Blizzard creating an entire lore storyline complete with artwork and lore surrounding the Empire, "Blizzard is pleased to announce the latest addition to the Warcraft universe: the mighty Pandaren Empire. The pandaren, driven from their tranquil lands by the marauding centaurs, fight ceaselessly to find a new homeland amongst the warring civilizations of southern Kalimdor."
In 2009, Blizzard released the Pandaren pet Monk to mark the 5th Anniversary of World of Warcraft with 50% of the proceeds going to the Make-a-Wish foundation. Players pandered to Blizzard's charity efforts by raising over 1 million dollars for Make-a-Wish; little did players know that they were buying the future race of World of Warcraft in pet form.
What shocked me, is the reception on sites like Youtube. At the time of this post, the video has 2.4 million views with 18k likes and 16k dislikes! There is no question that this expansion marks a departure from the previous expansions with a clearly defined antagonist. When Wrath of the Lich King was launched, the launch event was a pandemic that spread through Azeroth turning players into Zombies.
For reference, the Cata trailer has 47k likes and 3k dislikes – and, Wrath having 3k likes and 58 dislikes.
There has been much discussion as to whether or not this expansion is a good direction for World of Warcraft. Many players cite the lack of lore surrounding the Panarians. Others cite their inclusion as a joke. I am undecided whether this is a good decision or bad one. I can see it going both ways.
Thus far, there hasn't been an expansion for WoW that focuses the Horde vs Alliance Relationship. There also has been little to no advancement on the Emerald Dream. In previous expansions, there has always been an imminent threat to life on Azeroth, but Mists of Pandarea seems to focus more on interracial lore as opposed to some external force that will destroy life as we know it.
World PVP is dead being relegated to ganking only. The dungeon finder was a good addition, but I honestly miss the days of finding a group and traveling to the summoning stone (which is a relic of the past now).
So my question to WoW fans is: Isn't there room in the WoW lore for advancement of a race, and for that to be the focus? Invariably, when an expansion is opened, everyone flocks to the new areas, leaving older ones empty. Mists will probably open a lot of new areas, but I suspect that this expansion will be more about introducing Pandareans to Azeroth, rather than introducing the residents of Azeroth to Pandarea.
World of Warcraft is showing its age, with subscriber numbers steadily decreasing. From my point of view, it will be interesting to see what they do with the lore. There isn't a clear and present danger to Azeroth, so I suspect they will focus on refining the excellent content they have so far – because the game has TONS of areas and quests.
Pandaren Xpress anyone?

The acting President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Dalhatu Adamu was honoured Wednesday when a book was launched in his honour.
The book, A Glory to the Bench, a compilation of essays, was presented at a lavish event at the Yar'adua Centre, Abuja where the Dalhatu Adamu Foundation was also launched.
The event had in attendance the vice president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Alh. Namadi Sambo and the Chief Justice of the Federation, Hon. Justice Aloma Mariam Mukhtar in attendance.
In his review of the book, the Dean, faculty of Law, Nassarawa State University, Prof. Maxwell Gidado described the 326 page book as a "rich compendium of articles" on alternative dispute resolution, law of torts, environmental and sharia law among others, adding that he has "no hesitation recommending the book as a working document for law makers, lawyers and people in all facets of life."
Speaking at the event, Vice President Namadi Sambo, represented by Alhaji Abba Dabo said Nigeria has been blessed by a judiciary that has, through its commitment, restored sanity to the nation and hoped the event will encourage the justices to do greater things for the country.
On his part, the honouree, Hon. Justice Adamu lauded the team of young lawyers under the auspices of Lawtree Concept who undertook the task of producing the book in his honour.
"Today, the event we are witnessing is, no doubt, a great moment. It is a moment of glory that marks a watershed in my life, and will remain indelible in my mind," he said.
Highlight of the event included unveiling of the book by Alhaji Adamu Gambo, the chief launcher, who bought 10 copies of the book for a million naira each. He also spearheaded the unveiling of the Dalhatu Adamu Foundation and decorated the honouree with a garland confirming him as the patron of the foundation.
Explaining the idea behind the foundation, Abubakar Yahya Ndakene who was the head of the editorial team that produced the book, said Lawtree Concept decided to float the foundation around the "impeccable character" of the honouree "with the hope of impacting on the society as a whole."
Awards were presented to citizens who have distinguished themselves in the service of the public. The awardees included, Hon. Justices Aloma Mukhtar, Idris Kutigi, and the Niger State Governor, Mu'azu Babangida Aliyu among others.

Right angles and straight lines are their bread and butter, and there's nary a mangled paperclip or a coffee-stained notebook in sight.

Is James Franco trying to get the reputation of dirty old man? My Instagram-addicted minions told me they spotted a racy pic uploaded by the 36-year-old actor in which his boxer briefs where pulled down and his hand was covering his man parts. Ew. Luckily a screen shot was able to happen before James deleted the photo an hour later. Take a look, if you dare:
James has said before that "Attention is power," but with the amount of negative attention this pic is getting, he's about as powerless as my iPhone after a full day of texting and tweeting (she works overtime to bring you the news, loves…)
Do you think this pic was an accident or totally on purpose? Tell me in a comment below! XOXO

Palace on Bong Revilla's 'demolition job' accusation: No time for that
Malacañang on Tuesday brushed aside Senator Ramon Bong Revilla's accusation that President Benigno Aquino III's administration is "targeting" opposition lawmakers linked to a P10-billion scam involving their "pork barrel" funds.
At a press briefing, deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said the government has no time to entertain these kinds of allegations.
"Marami pong problemang hinaharap ang pamahalaan at marami tayong sinusuong at pinagtutuunan ng pansin... Because of the focus on those problems, hindi na din po kami nag-aatas pa or nagbibigay pa ng panahon para doon sa mga ganitong bagay," Valte said.
On Monday, Revilla said it was Malacañang which "engineered" the controversy involving 28 lawmakers, whose "pork barrel" funds were allegedly used by bogus non-government organizations to fund ghost projects worth P10 billion.
The senator, a possible presidential candidate in 2016, said the fact that only non-allies of the administration are being "dragged" into the controversy makes the supposed anomaly "suspicious."
Valte meanwhile dared Revilla to reveal the name of the person from Malacañang who supposedly warned him of the supposed demolition job.
"I understand that the senator mentioned that he has a source. We would appreciate it if that information was given to us because, certainly, that is not the case—na sinasabing sa amin po nanggagaling 'yung sinasabi po niyang demolition job," the President's spokesperson said. —KG, GMA News

Grand designs
Kelvin Tatum is backing Tai Woffinden to win the British Final - and a spot in the Grand Prix ranks.
Last Updated: 27/07/12 3:03pm
The British Championship Final gives fans the opportunity to see the best riders from these shores square off - and one lucky competitor the chance to become a Grand Prix racer for a night.
Monday's winner (or runner-up if regular Grand Prix performer Chris Harris takes the title) will not only claim the trophy and the prestige, but they will also secure the wildcard spot in the British Grand Prix in Cardiff on August 25.
The line-up for the British Final was set to be decided during semi-finals in Sheffield and Rye House in early July, but with those meets abandoned due to waterlogged tracks, the 16-man party has been selected from the averages list.
I think that's probably fair; I know there is red-hot sunshine now but there wasn't really enough time to reschedule the semi-finals, while the final field looks extremely strong and I cannot think of any shock omissions.
Defending champion Scott Nicholls is struggling a little bit, though; he wasn't up to his usual standards whilst riding for Britain in the recent World Cup which suggests he is not quite over his collarbone injury.
But you cannot discount the Coventry rider because he has a fabulous record at this event, winning it in six of the last 10 years.
He is certainly a very proud rider when it comes to the National Championships so I am sure he will be very competitive on Sunday.
Harris, too, is expected to be in contention and I don't anticipate the fact he is partaking in the Croatia Grand Prix on Saturday being an issue. He has been travelling back and forth for Grand Prix and Elite League meetings for too long now to be affected.
My tip for the title, however, is Tai Woffinden, who will be competing on his home track at Monmore Green in Wolverhampton.
The 21-year-old is very competent around the circuit and seems fully refocused now after a period in which he lost his way a little bit, plus, his recent scaphoid injury does not appear to be causing him much jip.
As for some of the other competitors, Eddie Kennett rides small tracks very well so he could be a contender, while Daniel King made Britain's World Cup squad and, on his night, can be very difficult to beat.
Lewis Bridger and Josh Auty are improving all the time and could be dangerous, but they will probably have to be at the peak of their powers to stop Harris, Nicholls and Woffinden.
Whoever earns that wildcard place for the British Grand Prix will get the opportunity to ride in front of a huge crowd, at a wonderful venue, and mix it with some of the best speedway stars around, such as Greg Hancock, Jason Crump and Chris Holder.
That is something Woffinden would relish and I think he is ready for it; he was Britain's best rider in the World Cup race-off in Malilla, Sweden and is ready to take that next step.
I predict he will grab the British title and a ticket to Cardiff on Monday night.

The Kardashians
Kanye West Thinks Kim Kardashian's Reality Career Is A Waste Of Time?
Kanye West has been holed up in Paris recently, working on his new studio album and fashion label. Since pregnant girlfriend Kim Kardashian is still working at home in Los Angeles, the couple's conflicting work schedules have kept them apart more often than not in recent months. But according to Radar Online, Kanye is keeping away from L.A. on purpose, because Kim and her reality shows could be bad for his career!
"He doesn't want to appear on Keeping Up with the Kardashians and being out of the country made that impossible," a source told Radar.
Well sure, we'd already put two and two together on that issue, since Kanye suspiciously decamped to Europe just as filming for the eighth season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians got started. But we didn't realize it was as bad as Radar claims, and that Kanye's "team has advised him that appearing on the Kardashian reality shows is bad for his brand, and his bottom line."
Ouch! We don't want to speak for Kim, but that has to sting a little, right? And if Kanye is so against reality TV, why did he ever appear on Kim's reality shows at all?
"Kanye did appear on the show several times before he and Kim hooked up but that was because he was trying to get with her," said Radar's source "Now that he has her, Kanye wants nothing to do with the reality shows. He most likely won't appear at all in the upcoming season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Kanye won't even let Kim talk to him on the phone while cameras are rolling. Kanye wants to maintain his private life."
But not only does Kanye want nothing to do with Kim's reality shows, this source claims that that he wants Kim to give it up as well!
"Kanye thinks the reality shows are a waste of time, and contribute nothing. He wants Kim to focus on her fashion designs, and maybe pursue an acting career. But he wants her to quit the reality shows."
What do you think, could Kanye get Kim to quit her reality career? It made her famous, but does she need to keep doing it to maintain her celebrity status? Let's discuss!

Meeting to thrash out worries over police cycling crackdown
Posted: August 24, 2010|
Cyclists' representatives have met police to discuss fears over a crackdown on pavement riding.
The issue has mushroomed into a major talking point in Bath, generating scores of comments on the Chronicle's website whenever it is raised.
Last month, police handed out three £30 fines and 14 verbal warnings to people found cycling on pavements and in pedestrian areas in the city.
There has been national publicity over the tough line which appeared to be being taken by police, who said the issue had been identified as a priority at the partners and community together meetings which aim to air community worries in the city.
Now Malcolm Dodds from the Bath Cycling Campaign and B&NES Council cycling champion Councillor Roger Symonds have met Inspector Steve Mildren, who heads neighbourhood policing in Bath.
Mr Symonds said they had had serious concerns that publicity over the matter would be damaging to the city's efforts to become a cycle-friendly place.
But he said: "We have been reassured by Insp Mildren's positive attitude towards sensible cycling."
The campaigners agreed that cyclists who rode recklessly or dangerously on pavements should be caught by police but were assured by Insp Mildren that those not causing a hazard would simply be engaged in conversation by his officers.
Insp Mildren told the campaigners - who were accompanied by B&NES councillor Nigel Roberts - that there was no zero tolerance approach on the issue and that no action would be taken over children riding responsibly on pavements.
He also said that unlawful cycling would not be given a higher priority than other issues of anti-social behaviour in the city, such as cars ignoring advance stop lines for cyclists and cars parking in cycle lanes.
Mr Symonds, who had previously suggested that police actions were "demonising" cyclists, has promised to keep Insp Mildren updated about council plans to develop more cycling routes in the city.
Insp Mildren said: "We will continue to take appropriate action against anyone who puts other highway users in danger. I would encourage all cyclists to take care, be aware of others in their vicinity, and ride in a manner that they are in complete control of their cycle at all times."

Hajati Madina is a local musician popularly known for her hit Bibuuza. She had a chat with Carol Kasujja about relationships
Asalaam alaikum Hajjat Madina
I am not a Hajjat because I have never gone to Mecca. People just refer to me as Hajjati because of the way I dress and the Muslim name. Since childhood, I have been praying to Allah to grant me the opportunity to go to Mecca.
What inspired you to sing Bibuuza?
It is what I was going through at that time. My husband had left me and I thought by composing a song, I could win back his love. Mine was a very painful experience because everything at home was yearning for him; the pillows, buckets, saucepans. Besides, they are so many women in this world who are dumped every day by their lovers and no one gets to know the pain they go through. It is a painful experience.
After the song, did he come back?
Hehehe! I don't want to say yes because he has not yet married me. Anything can happen again. But right now I am not searching. I am in a new relationship.
Who is your ideal man?
I want a Muslim man, caring, family person, someone who financially supports my music. And that man has to be loaded.
As a celebrity, would you kneel for your man in public?
What is wrong with kneeling? A man is a man and most of them love to be knelt for; as a woman, you have to kneel down for him to show respect and love. When you kneel down for him, he performs faster and also treats you well when he knows that you are loyal to him. So if a man sends you for airtime, you have to kneel when you are giving it to him.
G-strings or mothers union?
Oh my God! I do not like those bu G-strings. Those things are for irresponsible girls. I can't even imagine myself in one. I am sure I would not walk properly. I go for mothers unions because I am a grown woman. I need panties that make me feel fresh and clean.
There is a rumour that you stole Bibuuza from a friend, confirm.
I did not want to talk about that lady but since you have asked me, I have no choice. Bibuuza is my song. I am the one who composed it. That lady claiming it used to back me at church. She cannot even sing. She picked my demo from the studio and supplied it to different radio stations. I swear to Allah that is my song.
Of late you have been a regular at Pastor Iga's church, did you give your life to Jesus Christ?
I know I have created an impression that I am now a Christian especially through my music, but I am still a staunch Muslim. I am a Muslim who enjoys going to church. I respect my religion so much that when some people raised dust over my beliefs, I went back to the mosque for cleansing.

Why do some guys date ugly girls?
I mean obese, unattractive, stupid, selfish, shallow girls who have no social status in society. Why do some guys date them?
Most Helpful Opinion
wow, Just cause you see them as ugly that guy might not. If he is dateing her then he must find her attractive in some way or else why would he just to get a joke out of it I think not. In high school I was friends with a few fat people like 200 lbs over, and I can say they had a life they go out hang with friends, party everything we "skinny" girls do never have I seen one stupied, selfsih, or shallow.
What Guys Said 1
woah lady, you got beef with either of those personalities you mentioned above or some shit? But, here is what I have to say to that, I dated an obese chick once and the reason for that was because she understood me and we had a lot in common, a lot more than any other "BOMBSHELL" I dated before. Now, I have dated a selfish girl, but she was also the loyal kind. She had my back. Dated a stupid girl but she knew when to stand up for herself. Dated a shallow girl too, but her confidence had me hooked. There are so many f***in' reasons out there for dating a person. Why the f*** would a girl date a bad boy over the nice guy? Why do chicks take nice guy friends for granted and go out with a jerk? Don't worry. I am waiting.
You give really good answers... wow.
What Girls Said 8
Some of those descriptions sound completely personal and subjective.
But from what I've seen, guys will date a girl that's not exactly a bombshell because she's more confident, friendly, or fun to be around. And just because they're not stick-thin or a genius doesn't mean they don't have some great qualities.
It depends on the girls personality and it also depends on the guys personality like he may like the kind of girl you have described. And believe me "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder"
They might seem ugly to you but in the guys side they are beautiful. But some guys don't like selfish girls.
I think that its because they know that those girls will feed their big head with all the superficial compliments and tell them exactly what they want to hear.even if we are telling them the same things they always want more. I also think that they know that those girls will do whatever to have their attention and it make them feel like they are and will always be wanted by someone.its sick I know that was my ex.what a loooosser lol anyways good luck!
probably because he thought hey, why date a self centered, egotistical, skinny no curves chick, popular in her own head while people talk about her behind her back chick like you?
I'm obese, I had a brain tumour removed (not very smart) and I try VERY Hard to be a good to be a good person but I consider myself "selfish" because I have so many flaws and the reason I have so many flaws is because I grew up in an abusive home, where my parents messed me up so much psychologically that I had to go 18 years without a single friend. People avoided me because they thought I was immature. Who wouldn't be when they've gone 18 years without any friends?
Okay... um officially confused. Is the question about yourself and if so... than I apologize I'm just so sick of skinny airhead on this site dissin big girls. and I'm sorry about your upbringing its unfortunate that you had to go without a friend for so many years- I've had experiences of child abuse myself and the feelings of being alone that comes with it- it isn't the greatest feeling in the world- I guess my exscape was to find a friend in other things like food- so (no I'm not skinny either)
Have an opinion?

I know some folks out here have kids running Linux, so I thought I'd
pass this along...
----- Forwarded message from Jesse David Andrews <email@example.com> -----

From: "Jesse David Andrews" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
Subject: [seul-edu] Tuxtyping 1.5.0 Released!
To: firstname.lastname@example.com
Cc: firstname.lastname@example.com, email@example.com
Reply-To: email@example.com
After over a year of development with no releases, we are pleased to present Tux Typing 2 "Preview" release. Most of the internals have been rewritten with a focus on extensibility and internationalization. Creating a language pack is now as simple as creating a file for translations (lang.po file), maybe finding a font [1], setting up how the keyboard maps to the characters [2], and finally creating some word lists.
There is a new style of game "Comet Zap" and the start of tutor components with the new "Practice" mode.
We really look forward to getting feedback about what parents/teachers/students/kids think about the new work. This release has a few rough edges, but we feel that it is time to let the world see what has been happening with Tux Typing.
We have forums, mailing lists, and most importantly windows and linux builds are available at http://tuxtype.sf.net
We are already hard at work at 1.5.1 and hope to have it released soon making it even easier for translators and users!
Jesse Andrews - email@example.com
Calvin Arndt - email@example.com
and the rest of the Tux4Kids group!
[1] We are using a font that has support for many languages (Dansk, English, French, Spanish, ...) So if the included font works with your language, you don't need to find a new font.
[2] for instance in the default (English) language pack, we set up the game so if the student presses 'A' or 'a' it both works for "A".

They were trained in a two-day seminar in Yaounde last weekend.
Some 30 Judicial Police officers drawn from the National Gendarmerie and Police force nationwide are now better armed with knowledge to effectively carry out their mission as key actors in administering justice in Cameroon. They were schooled in a seminar at the Maison de Combattant in Yaounde on November 15 and 16, 2012 with particular focus on building their capacities on national and international human rights instruments, knowledge on human rights mechanisms, mastery of human rights regulations in relation to arrest, investigation and detention and the better way of protecting the rights of detained people.
Addressing the Judicial Police Officers on behalf of the Chairman of the National Commission on Human Rights and Freedoms, the Chair of the Sub-committee on Civil and Political Rights, Cheikh Hamadou Banoufe, stated their key role in the judicial system. The fate of the suspects largely depend on the Judicial Police Officers who manipulate on a daily basis their files and whose reports are decisive on some decisions on the execution of justice. The Commission official stated that some unjust sentences passed are a consequence of the actions of a Judicial Police Officer, stating that social security, stability, tranquility and peace largely depend on their actions.
The training of Judicial Police officers is part of the ongoing training of different human rights stakeholders. This is within the background of Cameroon's preparation to face the United Nations Human Rights Council in April 2013 for the Universal Periodic Review of the country's respect of engagements in diverse sectors of human rights.

Back to Basics: Establishing Your Goals
The average guy first starts his fitness journey when something makes him realize there needs to be a change. Maybe it's the number on the scale, or the feeling in his lungs after climbing a flight of stairs. Regardless of the reason, out of impulse, he goes and signs up for his his very first gym membership. Equipped with zero guidance and some bad advice from a friend at the gym (who doesn't have a clue about fitness, despite the large biceps), he starts attacking the weights and running feverously on the treadmill.
It's a couple of weeks later and he's lost some weight, gotten a little stronger, but isn't any happier. He's already lost on his journey to fitness, because he never asked himself where it all was leading. Shortly after, his "new gym membership high," starts to dissipate and before you know it, he completely stops going.
Fitness is a beautiful thing that can change every aspect of your life in a positive way, but most never take the time to figure out what it is they want out of it. Let this series help bring you down to reality and bring your workouts back to basics:

This was very heavy and thick. PF never has good shades only light skin tones can use this and even then it may not be a good match. PF really needs to get it together and make better shades. They make good products already now if they could make some good shades I am sure their sales would sky rocket.

I was excited to try this after I read the claims PF made and the reviews. I was very disappointed.
-Packaging is not the product color itself, just the color of the tube. I bought Natural Light and I'm pretty light, but nooo, it was wayyy to light. It was very obvious I had it on.
-Does not blend well. It sat on my blemishes rather than blend and cover.
-My skin is oily as it could ever be today and this was STILL to dry for me to blend well, if at all.

This concealer covers extremely well and whatever you conceal *stays* concealed throughout the day. You can layer it without looking cakey. I use this for my dark circles, acne scars, and sometimes to cover redness on my face. It can look very cakey if your skin is dry, as my skin was in the winter. I discovered that if I apply this UNDER my foundation, it will not look cakey at all. When my skin is more oily, I can wear this on top of my foundation. It doesn't work the best on active blemishes because it accentuates the dry, broken skin although it does hide redness well. It is good as an under eye concealer but it will crease if you apply it all the way under your eye. If you apply it in the inner corners of your eyes and take it down, stopping right where your iris begins and blend out, it won't crease and it will brighten your face much better believe it or not. I think this blends better when I use my fingers.:) I hope that helps.

This concealer is alright. It is very high coverage. This product works if I use it to conceal an acne scar or a dark spot, but for some reason, it does not last long when I use it to cover acne ( I can see my blemish resurfacing within an hour).
As for the under eye, it does look cakey on me, so unless you a have perfect, smooth under eye, it will accentuate any imperfections such as lines, dry skin, or bumps.
This concealer is quite thick and the product tends to seperate as you continue to use it, so make sure to shake the concealer before you use it.
Since I don't really like this product as a concealer, I tend to use it as an eyeshadow primer, and it gets the job done.

This concealer is AMAZING! The coverage is insane! I use this on any blemishes or redness that I may have on my face. The consistency is a little thick, but It takes such a small amount to cover a decent sized area. I think less is definitely more with this product! It lasts all day for me and when applied correctly (using only a small amount and set with powder), I don't think it looks cakey at all. I used to use this under my eyes too, but my skin around my eyes has been drier recently and I noticed this settled into my fine lines and was just to dry for that area. I now use a creamier concealer under my eyes, but for the rest of my face, this is my favorite concealer. I will repurchase again and again!

I heard this concealer was great for dark circles. However, the formula is very dry and looks very cakey under my eyes. I have even tried mixing it with thinner concealers, shaking it (in case it had separated), etc. Nothing seems to help the thick consistency. It doesn't blend well, which makes it very noticeable. Maybe I just got an old one, but I am so disappointed of the results.

One of the best concealers on the market. It is serious coverage and isn't cakey or too thick. It looks natural but covers everything. This is a thicker formula that needs to be set with a powder so it does not crease.
This does great for my black circles and blemishes. With all PF products, I have no problems with breakouts or irritations. This works better than most concealers I have tried, high and lower end. It's a bit much for a drugstore concealer but it will last forever because it is really concentrated.

I bought this concealer because a few of my friends told me that they REALLY loved it and I also read good reviews about this concealer. I went and got mine at RiteAid for around $9. At first I really liked it. It was very pigmented and I only needed a little bit of product to conceal my blemishes and under eye circles. But I realized that few hours after application, the concealer dries up and starts looking SUPER cakey on my face so it becomes very noticeable exactly where I have concealer on. Unless you have oily skin, I don't recommend buying this product.

I purchased the green colored concealer because I have redness around my nose I wanted to cancel out. Unfortunately, after just a couple of uses, I start getting small breakouts around my nose. I know it's from this concealed because it was the only new product I put on my face. Also, it's very thick and I found it difficult to blend out. I wouldn't repurchase.

I've been hesitant to try Physician's Formula products because they're so expensive for a drugstore brand. I really like my Skin Food Salmon Dark Circle concealer, but I was looking for another concealer that was not in a jar, if you know what I mean. I've heard missglamorazzi talk about Conceal RX in several of her videos, so I decided to pick it up when my local drug store was having a 40% off Physician's Formula sale, and I'm so glad I did. This concealer is very opaque, and heavily covers any spot on my face without feeling cakey. Most concealers only cover my acne spots partially, but this one gives full coverage, which is amazing! Additionally, even at full price, it's not too expensive. (~$8?)
I suppose the only downfall is the limitation when it comes to shades. Besides the Soft Green shade, there's only two other shades which are quite similar to each other in my opinion. Luckily, the shade Natural Light is a good match for me, but if you don't have light-medium toned skin, neither shade will match you. If this line had more color options, I would recommend it to anyone.
