Laurel Park
Two sides near agreement on division of slots Three tracks, other sites would split 9,500 devices
By Kent Baker and Kent Baker,SUN STAFF
February 24, 1996
The thoroughbred and standardbred industries have moved closer to agreement on the distribution of proposed slot machines and the revenue they would produce in Maryland.Under legislation introduced in the House of Delegates yesterday, some 9,500 such gaming devices would be installed at Laurel Park, Pimlico Race Course, Rosecroft Raceway and three facilities to be determined.Rosecroft objected to the original proposal, which called for an 80-20 percentage split in favor of the thoroughbred tracks and 3,000 fewer machines for the harness track (Laurel was to get 3,000, Pimlico 1,000 and Rosecroft 1,000)
Pimlico takes its cue, opens doors for 2002
By Tom Keyser and Tom Keyser,SUN STAFF
April 3, 2002
Another opening day will take place today in Baltimore. Two days after the Orioles launched their 2002 season at Camden Yards, racing returns to Pimlico and begins its buildup to the 127th Preakness Stakes. "There's always a great deal of excitement going back to Pimlico," said Lou Raffetto Jr., Maryland Jockey Club chief operating officer. "It's like a rite of spring." The 11-week meet at the venerable track in Northwest Baltimore will feature 28 stakes races. Thirteen will take place in a three-day period around the $1 million Preakness, set for May 18 in its traditional spot two weeks after the Kentucky Derby.
Approaching 4,000, it's been a great run

Even more remarkable than Mario Pino's five consecutive victories recently at Laurel Park was that this wasn't the first time the jockey had won five races in a row.In the early 1980s Pino won five straight at Delaware Park. That may surprise bettors who have every right to wonder: How long has Pino been riding, anyway?"When I tell people how long, they say, `What?' " Pino said. "They think I've been around maybe 10 years or so."Pino has entered his third decade as a jockey. He rode his first race in 1978 when he was 17. Now 37, he has ridden long enough to have won more races in Maryland than any other jockey.
Pimlico gets MATCH opener April 18 Expectations again high as 35-race competition enters its second year
By Tom Keyser and Tom Keyser,SUN STAFF
March 10, 1998
Following an inaugural season that boiled down to the last race on the last day, the Mid-Atlantic Thoroughbred Championships (MATCH) are back this year with 35 races at seven tracks in five states.Last year, the innovative series made history when, for the first time, track managements and horsemen's groups from different states banded together to create a regional racing competition.Released yesterday, this year's schedule will be nearly identical to last year's arrangement: seven races in five divisions that will begin April 18 at Pimlico and will end Oct. 3 with finales in each division.
Laurel weekend

TodayA lightly raced daughter of Polish Numbers is the likely choice in the 18th running of the Pearl Necklace Stakes.The $60,000 event, for 3-year-old registered Maryland-bred fillies, will be contested at 1 1/8 miles over the grass course.Polish Polka has had only two starts, both over the turf course at Canada's Woodbine Racecourse. After winning her debut, the Stronach Stable horse took on allowance company but was overtaken at the wire after being on the lead throughout.Her chief opposition is likely to come from either Jazz, owned by William Backer, or Hal Claggett's Silent Valay.

Upping The Ante
May 18, 2009
In the arms race of legalized gambling, Delaware last week pushed its chips "all in" as Gov. Jack Markell signed a bill legalizing sports betting and table games. If all goes as planned (and professional sports leagues are unsuccessful in their legal attempts to ensure it doesn't), the state's three racinos could be taking sports bets by fall and running table games before the end of the year. This makes Maryland the proverbial Pakistan of the gambling cold war. We may have recently gotten the big one - slots - but our arsenal-in-progress is a pittance compared to the major players.
Will the Preakness leave town? Slots threat: Pimlico track a money-loser without its one big day of horse racing.
May 19, 1997
ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL Preakness day has assured track owners of a profitable year. But the threat from slot machines at Delaware tracks (and soon at the Charles Town, W.Va., oval) undercuts efforts to keep first-rate thoroughbred racing at Pimlico. It also raises the disturbing possibility of the Preakness leaving town.Pimlico is not alone in its troubles. Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby, has been hurt by riverboat casinos. In response, the track slashed admissions and other charges to boost attendance, with some positive results.

Et cetera Hopkins' Andrew Carey wins Division III 800-meter final Johns Hopkins senior Andrew Carey won the 800-meter final at the NCAA Division III outdoor track and field championships Saturday in Delaware, Ohio. He finished in 1 minute, 50.62 seconds, becoming the first national champion in an individual event in Blue Jays history. Carey stayed with the front of the pack to start the race and slowly made his move into the top spot through the first turn. He increased his lead down the final 300 meters and held off Mitchell Black (1:51.30)
Maryland gambling: A weak hand
July 8, 2010
After reading yet another article regarding the delay in putting slots in Anne Arundel County ("Maryland high court to hear slots case," July 8) it is increasingly clear how far behind the curve Maryland is with regard to gaming. Maryland needs to either embrace or forbid gambling. This would also include getting rid of the lottery. We all know this will never happen. The legislature needs to start from scratch and work to approve full casino style gaming. I am preparing for my second trip to Delaware Park to enjoy an afternoon of poker in a beautiful, well managed establishment surrounded by lush grounds and plenty of free parking.

Warp Feed?
Dear Paintball.com,
Is a warp feed an advantage or disadvantage? Is it tourny legal? Can you use it in the NPPL? is it good for back players or front players, if it's even legal?
Dear Alex,
First off, yes a warp feed system is tournament legal and you can use it in any tournament you decide to participate in.
The major advantage of a warp feed system is it lowers your profile and when you come out of your bunker you don't have a loader sticking out on top of your marker. It gives the opponents less to shoot at. The major disadvantage to a warp feed system is that it creates a wider marker system and where you make up in height you lose in width. Your marker doesn't fit as comfortably to your body as it would without a warp feed. This can create an awkward stance for some and leave your arms out wider than normal - bringing about another target for the opponent to aim at.
As for back players and front players, I have seen both types use the warp feed. It really comes down to personal preference and what feels more comfortable to you as a player.
I hope this helps,

Two US troops die in copter crashes as three Iraqis killed in Fallujah attack
Two U.S. Army helicopters crashed in Baghdad, killing two American soldiers and wounding two others. The US Army helicopters went down about 8:30 p.m. Saturday in southwestern Baghdad.
Elsewhere, American warplanes bombed Fallujah again, destroying what the US command said was a checkpoint operated by the members of Tawhid and Jihad group led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Three people were killed, according to the Fallujah hospital.
According to The AP, the military action came despite an offer by community leaders in Fallujah to resume peace talks with the government if U.S. forces halt their bombings on the city and free their chief negotiator.
Fallujah hospital officials added U.S. artillery shells fell on a house in Halabsa village, some 15 kms southwest of the city, on Saturday killing a 3-year-old girl and injuring four family members. (albawaba.com)

Respond to Review of Stockpot
by veggieriga
Review: The first time I went to Stock Pot was last year and I had trouble finding it as I had lost my piece of paper with the address. So I ended up walking up and down Gertrudes St for half an hour before finding it. When I arrived, I was very thirsty and so drank water from my water bottle which they didn't liked, despite the effort I had made to find the place. So we did not get off to the best start, but anyway since I was there I decided to try to the food. It was ok and so I wrote a review mentioning they had vegetarian food, but I didn't tell them, because I usually do not tell places when I write reviews. After that I went a few more times, and Richard, the owner, was pressuring me to write a review. I thought it was odd considering I had already written a review, but I didn't mention that. He wanted me to mention things about their meat dishes, etc which again was odd because I had only eaten their vegetarian food. Frankly I thought their food was a bit expensive. They also do not have specials for lunch. When I went there, I would usually spend about 5 lats (without a drink) for my vegetarian food which was expensive for a cafeteria style restaurant; at almost all other restaurants in Riga including actual sit down restaurants, lunch costs less than that except for the most expensive ones and to spend so much elsewhere at lunch, one would have to go to a non vegetarian restaurant and order non vegetarian food. It is far more expensive than any other vegetarian place at lunch and one of the most expensive places if not the most expensive place at dinner for vegetarians. I have other things to say, but I would prefer to say them in a pm rather than write them here. Updated from previous review on Monday September 02, 2013

I speak with lots of customers about virtualization every week. I'm always interested in how they manage their virtual environment, and often dig into their operational procedures and practices. I find that organizations who adopted virtualization earlier have not taken full advantage of the technology. Backup and recovery is a great example of this.
How do you backup and recover your virtualized servers? Do you still leverage agents inside the VMs to a central backup infrastructure? Lots of companies charged down the "virtualize to consolidate" path without altering their backup and recover processes. Savings realized through server consolidation can be substantial, but by not updating their backup method, they miss out. In the event a server (VM) needs to be restored for some reasons, leveraging an agent-in-the-VM backup means the server (VM) must be rebuilt and then restored.
Why not take advantage of the encapsulation of server instances to improve disaster recovery? VMs live in files, why not backup and restore the few number of files that represent a VM, rather than reconstruct all the files and settings contained in those files?
VMware offers VMware Consolidated Backup to backup a VMware host and the hosted / encapsulated virtual machines, but it is by no means a low cost backup solution. It still requires a VMware 3rd party backup solution as well as the extra cost of VMware's tools (at least VI Foundation). Even with all that, it's not a simple process to get it working. I know that some people believe that Microsoft licensing could be simpler, but personally I think VMware makes things as simple as licensing backup capabilities hard with statements like, "To leverage the new Consolidated Backup capabilities — and backup of all virtual machines running on an ESX Server host — a VCB license key must be available for each processor within that host. Refer to the Virtual Machine Backup Guide for a description of this feature." Leave me a comment if I'm off base about the cost and complexity of VMware Consolidated backup.
Enough about all the added cost and complexity of VMware…the important question is…did you know that everything you need to do a Hyper-V backup is included in Windows Server? Did you know that there are at least two ways to make complete, consistent backups of VMs on Hyper-V that can be quickly and easily restored? Over the coming weeks, I want to show you how to backup and recover Hyper-V VMs using the "stuff" that comes in the box with Windows Server 2008 R2 (and then talk about System Center Data Protection Manager and why you might want to check it out too). I'll break my posts into four areas:
Be sure to stay "tuned in" to learn how to efficiently backup and recover Hyper-V.
make sure to cover vhd residing on csv based volumes!
I certainly will talk about that in later posts - I want to get to the basics first, though.
Backup and recovery for CSV-based VMs is still evolving. BTW, NetApp just released an interesting tool that supports CSV: http://blogs.netapp.com/storage_nuts_n_bolts/2009/10/sneak-preview-snapmanager-for-hyper-v-snhv.html
yep have netapp onsite working the details now! Seems there are some problems with vss etc..
Tony - let me know what issue you are having, I'm very interested! Send me an e-mail with details if you want... my e-mail is john kel @ <youknow>.com
take out the spaces and put the company name and you should be all set.
sorry been away, the issues were not related to anything to do with either ms or netapp, snapmanger depends on a working infra structure things like dns etc. We had RPC issues that snapmanager seems to depend on to communicate with the vss writer. The filer was sitting in another domain with a poorly maintained dns systems. It did not have proper forwards and reverses configured. Thus the vss writer request would fail!

Television ratings not kind to BCS title game
Did you watch Alabama beat LSU 21-0 to win the BCS Championship last night? If not, you weren't alone in finding your television entertainment elsewhere.
The overnight ratings for the BCS National Championship Game show that last night's rematch between Alabama and LSU was the lowest-rated title game in the 14-year history of the BCS, bringing in a 13.8 overnight rating, a 14% drop from last year's game between Auburn and Oregon. The previous low had been set in 2002 when Miami played Nebraska for the title and the game brought a 14.3 rating.
There are a few factors that were no doubt in play here. First of all, it seems many college football fans were serious when they said they didn't want to watch a rematch of a game they'd already seen, particularly one that ended 9-6 the first time and didn't exactly provide a lot of excitement. Another factor to consider is that the game was broadcast on ESPN, which is available on cable packages and previous BCS games had always been broadcast on national networks.
The low ratings for the title game followed the trend of the other four BCS bowls as well, as the average rating of all BCS games dropped 10% from the 2010 season and 21% from the 2009 season. Again, this is likely a combination of the games now being broadcast on cable and college football fans who are tiring of the bowl system.
The good news is that with all the momentum that already seems to be in place for the BCS to add a plus-one system in the coming years, the drop in ratings may provide an additional kick in the pants.

People aren't watching because the whole system looks corrupt. Secret computer rankings and self-serving, biased human voters decide who plays for the "title" with little concern for transparency or fairness (nick saban had a vote and ranked Ok St 4th but Gundy didn't even get a vote, for example), the big 6 conference members structure the bowl selection rules to protect their guaranteed, undeserved revenue streams that are paid by fans who have begged for a playoff system for years yet are repeatedly ignored.
College football is heading down the same path as boxing. Corruption, championship matchups based on money instead of merit, ignoring the customer, etc. It's a short term gain but a long term loss. But, like in boxing, all the decision-makers involved became multi-millionaires
;on the fan's dollar so why would they care about the sport's future when they can get rich now?

The people have spoken. We do not believe the SEC is the greatest conference there ever has been. We did not fall for the media hype of the SEC. We knew they can't play offense and they can not win a bowl game that isn't on their home field. No more rematches. Just because the media wants a rematch for a story doesn't mean the people want it. If you do not believe me look at the ratings of your field goal filled game.

I said prior to the first game that there should be no rematch. Remember, the media was already talking about a rematch and the first game had not even been played yet. Then, after the game, the rematch articles continued. The media, and ESPN and CBS specifically, are the ones that gave us this game; forced it down our throats to a degree. Now, the media wants to act all shocked by the poor ratings that they pandered for. There was no way a national championship game between two teams from the same conference was going to draw a lot of interest. The SEC was going to win and lose either way, but there was nothing in it for any fans from any other conference. Ok State may not be much of a national draw just yet, but every SEC hater in the country would have been pulling for them if they had been in it. As it stood, they had no rooting interest, so many did not watch.

In all honesty, it's the BCS that keeps me from watching college football. I don't want to invest my time and develop a rooting interest in a system that ends like this every year, where no one is happy except the team who wins the last game and their fans. I like football, but what's the point when they just pick two teams to play for the championship instead of have teams win that right in a playoff?

the greed of the colleges and the corporate mouse led to the stretching out of the bowls, instead of abc, cbs, nbc, all having games on a three day holiday. ruining, i believe, what was a new year tradition. cbs and nbc had no college games sat or sun. and abc had one that the mouse said they could have. i gave up on espn four years ago, and hope someone comes along on free airwaves or free highspeed streaming to show us holiday games.

This article is so misleading it's almost criminal.... The ratings are down from two years ago because THE GAMES ARE ON CABLE NOW!!!!! Last years NCG game was the highest rated cable progam in history..#1 all-time...It was still rated lower than the year before that was on broadcast tv.
The commissioners and ESPN know the BCS ratings are higher than ever, which is why they are so unwilling to change.

Hey SEC fans, this was the game everyone wanted to see right?

Television ratings not kind to BCS title game
I boycotted the game and I don't know anyone that watched the game. Listening to sports talk today, this sentiment if felt nationwide. This game had no appeal outside of SEC country. Last year's game did well on ESPN, so that can't be a factor. Honestly I'm glad I didn't watch, watching re-runs of tv shows on Netflix was a great deal more entertaining. Anyway, congrats to 'Bama, let's hope the Big 10 or Pac 12 produces a significant challenge to the SEC next year to end this streak...

Korea to unveil measures to revive exports to China: sourceBy Koh Byung-joonSEJONG, July 3 (Yonhap) -- South Korea plans to announce measures aimed at bolstering its exports to China "in the near future" amid worries that its shipments to one of the world's largest markets might be losing momentum, a government official said Thursday."We plan to unveil measures to bolster our exports to China either in July or August," a high-ranking official told Yonhap on condition of anonymity.He said that the measures are aimed at reviewing and analyzing the latest Chinese market situations, and come up with countermeasures to tackle challenges confronting Korean exporters selling goods there.The official did not give details about the measures, only saying they would not include such support as tax incentives and financial subsidies for local exporters.The move comes amid concerns that South Korea's exports to China, one of its main trading partners, might be losing traction and eventually hurt the country's export-driven economy.Earlier, the commerce ministry said that South Korea's first-half exports to China came to US$65.7 billion, up 0.6 percent from a year earlier. The on-year growth rate was far slower than the 10.1 percent gain tallied a year earlier.China's exports accounted for 24.8 percent of South Korea's total overseas shipments during the cited period.The ministry cited a possible slowdown in China's economy as one of the major risk factors confronting the country's exports in the months to come, saying that it will intensify its market monitoring.The official said that the government recognized the risks and had planned to unveil related countermeasures last month but had to delay because of the protracted Cabinet reshuffle.<All rights reserved by Yonhap News Agency>

After taking hydroxychloroquine for only two months I started itching, I called my doctor and she told me to stop taking and prescribed hydroxyzine for the itch but after two weeks still bothered with itching. Can't get in to see my doctor for another week
How long does Hydroxychloroquine stay in your system?

I hope the itching has stopped by now.
Hydroxychloroquine has an extremely long half life of around 32 days.
This means that every 32 days, half of the previous amount of hydroxychloroquine in the body disappears.
It takes around 5.5 half lives for a drug to be completely eliminated from your body meaning that you may need to wait for around 176 days.

Originally written on The Other Paper | Last updated 4/11/13
Jorge Soler, the 21-year-old Cuban defector who is rated one of the Chicago Cubs best prospects, had to be restrained by teammates after he grabbed a bat and started to charge the other team's dugout Wednesday night. Details of the late night incident were sketchy but it was reported that the bat-wielding Soler took offense to a rough play at second base during the Single-A game between the Daytona Cubs and Clearwater Threshers (a Philadelphia Phillies affiliate) at Jackie Robinson Ballpark. Soler, who was on base, and infielder Carlos Alonso got tangled up at second base with Alonso ending up on top. Soler apparently took the second baseman's aggressive play as a challenge and claimed he was spiked. The two players exchanged words and the benches cleared but no punches were thrown. Once the field cleared, Soler reportedly grabbed a bat from his dugout and charged towards the Clearwater dugout. Witnesses said Soler was screaming in front of the Threshers dugout challenging them to a fight. Daytona manager Dave Keller said the moments before coaches managed to drag Soler away were "kind of like a nightmare." Soler was ejected and will most likely be facing some sort of suspension from the Florida State League and maybe additional discipline from the Cubs. There might even be grounds for some sort of criminal charges too. After defecting, Soler got a nine-year, $30 million contract to sign with the Cubs last summer. He was off to a nice start for high-A Daytona, hitting .435 with two homers in 23 at-bats. In his pro debut last year, he hit .299/.369/.463 between Rookie and low-A ball. The Cubs have refused to comment until they have the full story. Clearwater went on to win, 14-9, in 11 innings.

The son of ousted Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi on Monday accused the military of kidnapping his father and vowed to take legal action against the army chief.
"What happened is a complete crime of abduction and no less and a perfect example of the kidnapping of the people's will and kidnapping of an entire nation," Osama Morsi told reporters in Cairo, according to a video recording of the news conference.
The younger Mr. Morsi said his family will begin legal action immediately against military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi and his "junta."
SEE ALSO: Egypt: 'In Sinai, I saw hell'; refugees are easy prey for brutal human traffickers
Gen. el-Sissi ousted Mr. Morsi's father from office on July 3 following four days of protests during which millions of people demanded the Islamist president step down, accusing him of undermining democracy and wrecking the economy.
Gen. el-Sissi last week retained the post of defense minister and was given the duties of first deputy prime minister in the government of interim Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi.
The elder Mr. Morsi has been held at an undisclosed location since his ouster. His supporters believe is being held at the Republican Guard Club in Cairo.

We report on the syntheses of nanostructured Pt films with three different feature sizes of 3, 6 and 9 nm and their effects to the surface enhance Raman spectroscopy of rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) analytes. The syntheses of the Pt films have been achieved through templating the pore structures of mesoporous silica thin films (MSTFs). For the purpose of the present study, we synthesized three MSTFs with pore sizes 3, 6 and 9 nm. Other than the pore sizes, the silica thin films have the same pore structures. The Pt films have been synthesized by depositing Pt into the pores of the template MSTFs and removing the templates after the deposition. The Pt films produce strong Raman spectra of Rh6G with the intensity increasing as the feature size of the Pt film increases. Simulations of the induced electromagnetic fields on the Pt films show the same trend as the observed Raman intensity with the feature size. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

South Union motorist charged in crash that injured 1
The driver of a Cadillac Escalade that struck a Belle Vernon man who was working on a broken water line in Uniontown on Feb. 5 is charged with drunken driving.
Heather Jean Smith, 37, of South Union Township refused to submit to a blood draw, according to Patrolman Jason Fidazzo, who this month filed charges of driving under the influence, careless driving and reckless driving.
Justin Nash, 39, of Belle Vernon was struck by the vehicle just before 11:30 p.m. as he and another Pennsylvania American Water Co. worker were repairing a line at East Fayette and Grant streets. Police said both men were wearing reflective vests.
Nicholas Hlasnick, 26, of West Mifflin told police he attempted to push Nash out of the way of the oncoming vehicle, "but he wasn't fast enough," Fidazzo wrote in the complaint.
The Cadillac struck the men's work vehicle, which was parked with its four-way flashers on about 15 feet from where they were working, police said.
Smith, who remained at the scene, needed assistance standing, had slurred speech and smelled of alcohol, according to the complaint. Smith told police that "the guy walked right out in front of her," Fidazzo wrote.
Nash was treated in UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh and released. His injuries were not detailed by police.
Smith could not be reached for comment.
A summons has been mailed to her. A preliminary hearing before District Judge Michael Metros is scheduled for April 1.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Democratic state Sen. Jon Erpenbach said Tuesday that he and some of his Republican colleagues have discussed temporarily accepting a federally funded expansion of Medicaid against the wishes of GOP Gov. Scott Walker.
Democrat says he talked with GOP on Medicaid deal
Erpenbach talked about the possible deal during the Wisconsin HealthWatch conference, a meeting of policy makers, consumer advocates, and health care industry representatives. Erpenbach was on a panel of Democratic lawmakers, all of whom roundly criticized Walker's recent moves to reject key portions of the federal health care overhaul law.
Walker proposed in his state budget released last week that Wisconsin not accept a federally funded expansion of Medicaid that would expand the state's BadgerCare coverage to 175,000 adults. The expansion would be fully funded by the federal government for three years, with the state eventually paying 10 percent of the costs.
But Walker turned it down, expressing fears that the federal government wouldn't follow through on its commitment and the state would be left shouldering more of the costs. Republican legislative leaders have publicly backed Walker's plan and his rationale for taking a different path.
Walker has proposed Medicaid eligibility restrictions that would cut the program's rolls by about 5,400 people and would make roughly 224,600 state residents eligible to buy federally subsidized private coverage through the state's new health care exchange, or online marketplace.
Walker also turned down the chance to have the state create its exchange, instead deferring to the federal government.
In an interview after the panel discussion, Erpenbach declined to say which Republican senators he had spoken with about a possible Medicaid deal. But he said there were at least a couple who were unhappy with what Walker proposed and were open to alternatives, such as accepting the expansion for a limited time. Erpenbach didn't say what the time period would be.
"I know they will be looking to save some money along the way," Walker said of Republicans who may be willing to deal.
Walker's spokesman, Cullen Werwie, did not comment on the possible deal Erpenbach discussed but reiterated the governor's position on his original proposal.
"Gov. Walker's plan protects state taxpayers now and into the future," Werwie said. "His plan ensures that Medicaid covers the individuals it was originally intended for, those who live in poverty."

While Cox Communications can make rate decisions in a private conference room several states away, Lafayette conducts its business in an open forum, as it should. While Cox can make repeated and periodic requests for documents under the Public Records Law, it is not subject to a corresponding obligation – a "show me your plans, but don't dare ask to see mine" mentality. Louisiana law limits the ability of a governmental enterprise to advertise, but nothing prevents the incumbent providers from spending millions of dollars in advertising campaigns. An important focal point of the legal challenges involved the right or ability of Lafayette to pledge assets of the utilities system as security for the bonds, something that the private corporations do all of the time without the slightest scrutiny. To be sure, the "playing field is not level," but it is the government which is disadvantaged, not the private companies.
FCC Commissioner Concerned When Local Authority is Preempted
I remain concerned that when cities and local governments are prohibited from investing directly in their own broadband networks, citizens may be denied the opportunity to connect with their nation and improve their lives. Local economies will suffer as a result, and the communities' ability to effectively address education, health, public safety, and other social issues will be severely hampered. ... I fear that preventing local governments from investing in broadband is counter-productive and will impede the nation from accomplishing the Plan's goal of providing broadband access to every American and community anchor institution.

I was looking at teh CSP online application and noticed that they now require just the applicant's income and time at job. Well My income is 50K and my time at the job has benn only 2 months. I am worried that they may decline me becuase of thse factors.
What has been your experience regarding income if not time at work.
my CK score is 727.
07-27-2012 10:59 AM - edited 07-27-2012 11:00 AM
Keep in mind that CSP has minimum CL of $5K, so you should be set for income requirement.
I know and that worries me coz, the highest CL I have is $3000 and only 2 credit cards.
How good are my chances with Amex gold or Amex costco?

Why not just go to Amex site and see if you're preapproved. I heard they have their own internal scoring anyway. While it's not a sure thing it's better than nothing. Or just play it safe and get CS and then once you have some time established at the job PC to CSP.
|Starting Score: EX: 736 FAKO | TU: 757 FICO | EQ 730 FICO
Current Score: EX: 736 FAKO | TU: 750 FICO | EQ 730 FICO
Goal Score: EX: 750 FICO | TU: 750 FICO | EQ: 750 FICO
|In my wallet: $16,000 $8,000
Almost all credit card CL are determined per your income I would think.
Length of work also is a factor. From talking to Discover/Chase/BOA, they like to see 2 + ;as it shows them stability.
Income and length of time at current job are important factors for determining credit limit, and the CSP requires a 5K limit or higher. 50K income can be enough to get a 5K line, but only being at that job 2 months will hurt. Having a high credit score would help, also how much is your monthly rent/mortgage and how much outstanding debt do you have? Those will be considered as well.
trumpet-205 wrote:

This is correct, but Chase would also like to see you have a CC with 5k or more for at least a year of good history.
The length of employment will hurt you more than the level of income. 50K is more than enough to get a 5K line...

Ondrusek better redeem himself here!!!!
Ondrusek better redeem himself here!!!!
Ondrusek coming in with the bases loaded.
Choosing between Marshall and Ondrusek is like choosing if you want to be stabbed or shot.
Ondrusek. I mean this manager is clueless.
Why no Chapman?
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.
I don't think it's going to be extras. I think it's going to be the Padres scoring multiple runs on a hit here or the reds getting out of it just barely.
Great. Ondruzek. Time to blow this one WIDE open.
Does Simon or Chapman even exist on this team?
Dusty and his player confidence moves. Ugh.
"I can't take this homerism anymore." - 10xWSChamps, August 11, 2010. A Cardinals fan having a problem with all the homerism on Redszone. Classic.

Ondrusek of 6 K/9IP fame. The ball will be put in play somewhere. Hope for an at-em ball Redszone...
I'm not so sold on Simon, but I think I'd throw him in here.

Moammar Gadhafi has had it up to here with Switzerland. First they arrest his son on charges of beating up two servants at a luxury hotel. Then they pass a pretty horrible law banning mosque's minarets. Now, Gadhafi has called for a holy war against the country, a move which has received almost universal denouncement.

What's as interesting as Stack's motives are our motives in labeling this act. Was Stack's gesture an attention-grabbing suicide plot, a deliberate criminal act, an act of heroism or an act of terrorism? It seems that the answer varies according to whom we ask.

Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders' words are coming back to haunt him—in court. Wilders, an ultra-right-wing member of the Netherlands parliament, has drawn fire in recent years for his vocal anti-Islam stance, which he has expressed both in cinematic form and in what prosecutors in Amsterdam allege is hate speech.

Christmas 2009 was not particularly cheery in Nigeria. A poor economic climate, an epileptic power supply and scarcity of petroleum products ensured that the celebrations were low-key. As if these challenges were not enough, news of an attempted bombing of a U.S. airliner by a Nigerian filtered in on Christmas Day. The nation's heart sank.

A suicide bomber struck a procession of Shiite Muslims in Karachi, Pakistan, on Monday as they commemorated the day of Ashura, a traditional day of mourning and remembrance of the Prophet Muhammad's martyred grandson. According to the Los Angeles Times, 20 people were killed and dozens wounded in the blast—the third attack in three days in Pakistan.

Music and Islam have a dodgy relationship. I guess it's really all to do with that most jealously guarded commodity, the human soul, over which music exerts such passion.

Recognizing that this week's popular vote to forbid the building of minarets in Switzerland represented a blatant show of religious intolerance it couldn't ignore, an association of Jewish organizations is expressing its strong disagreement with the ban and calling on Swiss leaders to defend religious freedom.

Unemployment reaches 10.2 percent—do we need a bigger stimulus? What do the GOP victories in Virginia and New Jersey mean for both parties? Will the House's historic health care bill pass, and, if so, why wait till 2013 to implement it?
Two men from Chicago were arrested recently for allegedly plotting to attack overseas targets, including the Danish newspaper that sparked a huge controversy in 2006 by running the now-infamous cartoon of the prophet Mohammed sporting an explosive turban.
Drawing God is an age-old challenge, but ultra-quirky illustrator R. Crumb was up for it—although it took a lot of white-out to do the job, which seems fitting somehow. Crumb tackled the first 50 chapters of the Old Testament in his latest creation, simply titled "The Book of Genesis Illustrated by R. Crumb," and lo, it is good.
The internationality of Islam is emphasized by a new Pew Research study that found one in four people in the world to be Muslim. With 1.57 billion adherents, Islam ranks second only to 2.25 billion-strong Christianity. The study's findings counter the disparaging, stereotyping notions that many in the West have of "the Muslim World."
President Obama released a video greeting Friday to Muslims in America and abroad to commemorate the start on Saturday of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting and reflection for members of the Islamic faith.
The West was wrong about this being a war of civilizations, and so were the Muslims. Islamic civilization is experiencing a double crisis, of modernity and of religion. Nothing could be clearer today in Tehran.
Exit polls show the notoriously anti-immigrant Dutch politician Geert Wilders gaining 15 percent of the vote and second place in elections for the European Parliament in the Netherlands—even as he faces prosecution on charges of inciting hatred in his speeches.

The embrace by any society of permanent war is a parasite that devours the heart and soul of a nation. Permanent war extinguishes liberal, democratic movements. It turns culture into nationalist cant. It degrades and corrupts education and the media, and wrecks the economy.
The New York Times gets an inside look at a Pakistani fetish factory located next door to a fundamentalist Islamic mosque. Globalization doesn't get more entertaining than this.
The public lashing of a 17-year-old girl named Chand in Pakistan's Swat Valley became the catalyst for countrywide protests on Saturday after a video of the flogging made its way around the Internet. A spokesman for the local Tahreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed the video was fake and that the actual incident happened outside of Swat but defended the punishment as just.
For the crime of receiving two unrelated men in her home, a 75-year-old Saudi woman has been sentenced to 40 lashes and four months behind bars. Once again, a nation that is both one of America's closest allies and brutally oppressive of women finds itself in an awkward light.

The United States spent much of the 20th century lecturing the world about how to run an economy. Clearly, we've lost some credibility in that area. Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono wants Islamic banks, with their abhorrence of interest and gambling, to fill the void.

Now a lot of folk will go along with the line that the Holy Father is so stupid—so utterly out of touch with Planet Earth—that he has no idea how disastrously his actions are received. Hmmm. Well, I wonder.
Except for the brief NATO intervention in Kosovo and Serbia, all of the significant U.S. military expeditions since the Cold War have been fought against Asians, and we have lost nearly all of them.
Exactly what do we think we are doing in Afghanistan and Pakistan? Are we there to liberalize their forms of religious observance, or conduct a war over theology, or establish permanent NATO bases there, or are we searching for Osama bin Laden? It seems that we are doing all of these things at the same time. But why?

The world is far more complex than our childish vision of good and evil. We as a nation and a culture have no monopoly on virtue. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, when viewed from the receiving end, are state-sponsored acts of terrorism.
The Bush administration is reportedly angry at a decision by U.S. District Judge Ricardo Urbina, who ruled the detention of 17 Chinese Muslim prisoners at Guantanamo Bay was unfounded, citing a seemingly archaic document that prohibits indefinite detention without cause—the U.S. Constitution.

The blogosphere is alive with the sound of buzz—all about an inflammatory DVD on radical Islam being distributed to millions of households at the peak of election season. Critics are calling the DVD, "Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West," anti-Muslim hate, or politicking, or both. The obvious question: Who is behind it?
This wasn't the best week for Sen. John McCain's (former) religious advisers, the Revs. John Hagee and Rod Parsley—primarily because the Republican front-runner has effectively given them both the political heave-ho following the public re-airing of their takes on Israel and Islam, respectively.
Looks like Sen. John McCain is being endorsed by more than one controversial preacher—the apparent "must-have" of leading presidential hopefuls this election cycle. Meet the Rev. Rod Parsley, whose support McCain sought and won, according to Brave New Films and Mother Jones, which have launched a collaborative effort to expose Parsley's alarming beliefs about Islam and America's role on the world stage.

A homemade bomb was reportedly the cause of a deadly explosion Saturday at a mosque in Shiraz, about 560 miles south of Iran's capital city, Tehran. According to Iran's Fars news agency, nine people were killed and 105 wounded by the blast.
Conservative Dutch politician Geert Wilders certainly isn't helping resolve religious and cultural tensions within his country with the release of his short film "Fitna" (running time 17 minutes), which portrays Islam in an extremely negative light. According to the BBC, the Dutch government "has distanced itself" from Wilders' views. Good idea.

The House of Saud clearly takes a top-down approach to ruling. Under mounting pressure from the West to confront religious fundamentalism, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Religious Affairs plans to retrain some 40,000 imams.
Following a heated debate, the British House of Lords approved an amendment that does away with the UK's long-standing common law against blasphemy—a watershed moment that some believe was too long in coming.
There's been plenty of innuendo and chatter about Barack Obama's religious affiliation and beliefs lately, but both Obama and rival Hillary Clinton have described their faith with little room for extrapolation in recent months. Here's what they had to say.
The bad side of being a new face in politics is that your enemies can treat you like a blank slate, to be filled in with lies and slurs. That's what is happening to Sen. Barack Obama, who is being subjected to a secretive whispering and e-mail campaign that aims to alienate him from Jewish voters by linking him to Black Muslim leader Louis Farrakhan and the Muslim religion.
Those around the world who had trouble accessing YouTube on Sunday may be interested to know the cause of the problem: On Friday, the Pakistani Telecommunications Authority acted to block access to YouTube in order to prevent Pakistanis from seeing a YouTube clip promoting an anti-Islam film by Dutch politician Geert Wilders (pictured). Thus ensued an accidental chain reaction that blocked YouTube access for many thousands internationally. Now, the popular site is back up, even in Pakistan.

The death of Benazir Bhutto in December, tensions within the country and concerns over President Pervez Musharraf's leadership (and his regime's relationship with the U.S. government) registered in a loud and clear message from Pakistanis at the polling booths Monday: Musharraf is standing on shaky ground.

Pervez Musharraf's recent actions remind us, Ritter argues, that America's special relationship with Pakistan serves neither country's best interests.
After an uncharacteristic moment of empathy for the left, Stephen Colbert reminds us that there are other newsworthy events besides the primaries: The world is full of other countries—which, it turns out, are also obsessing about the U.S. primaries.

A quartet of new books provides an inside look at Pakistan's nuclear smuggling network and how it flourished. A sordid tale of how the United States simultaneously acted as an enabler for the construction of the "Islamic Bomb" and coddled the Islamists who might one day control it.
In a particularly delicate situation involving crossed cultural wires, a British primary school teacher in Sudan could face six months in jail, a fine or 40 lashes after allowing her students to name a teddy bear "Muhammad" for a class exercise.
John McCain's campaign is in dire straits, which may be why he told Beliefnet that he would prefer a Christian president who would "carry on in the Judeo-Christian principled tradition," and that "the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation."
As a group of women in Saudi Arabia mobilize to petition the government to lift its ban on female drivers, fellow Saudis give their opinions on the issue in this interview roundup by the BBC.
Turkey's Abdullah Gul says he will once again run for the presidency, which could lead to a crisis in the politically and religiously complex nation. Turkey's avowedly secular military has already announced its willingness to intervene should Gul win the post, because of his Islamist background.

From a Photojournalism project I worked on documenting the life on a Horse farm in Northern Michigan. The barn where they train the horses is one of the places of solitude to escape from the chaos of the day.
