Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke travels to Congress to deliver his semi-annual report card on the health of the economy. The tradition dates back to when Congress, in the reform spirit in the post-Watergate era, passed the Humphrey Hawkins Full Employment Act of 1978 that, among other things, required that the Fed chief appear twice per year to discuss the state of the economy. Read preview of Bernanke's testimony
This came at a time when Fed officials believed that the less said about monetary policy the better. The resulting clashes between a Congress eager for information from a reluctant Fed chairman mesmerized Wall Street.
The following are seven top moments from Fed chairmen testifying to Congress.
—Greg Robb
1. January 26, 2001
Fed Chief Alan Greenspan tells the Senate Budget Committee that the federal budget surplus is big enough to accommodate President George W. Bush's proposed substantial tax cut, giving vital momentum for the Republican plan that overwhelms Democratic opposition. Sen. Paul Sarbanes, Democrat of Maryland, said Greenspan took the lid off the punch bowl. Ten years later, Greenspan calls for the repeal of Bush's 2001 and 2003 tax cuts.
2. September 24, 2008
With Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson making little progress with the Senate Banking Committee, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke steps in and tells members they must pass the Bush Administration's hastily cobbled together $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program or TARP. Bernanke tells Congress that the arteries of the financial system are hardening which could lead the economy to have a heart attack. At first, the plan was intended to buy up troubled mortgage-related debt and hopefully sell it. It swiftly morphed into a direct injection of capital into banks.
3. October 19, 1993
House Banking Committee Chairman Henry Gonzalez asked senior Fed officials whether the central bank maintains secret transcripts of their interest-rate setting meetings. Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan dissembled at the hearing but a few days later disclosed the existence of unedited transcripts of every meeting since March 1976. The disclosure was a watershed for Fed, and opened the door to greater and greater transparency, which now includes statements after policy meetings and quarterly press conferences by the Fed chairman that were unthinkable at the time. The Fed also agreed to release verbatim transcripts of its meetings after a five-year lag.
4. October 18, 1979
In one of his first appearances before Congress since the launch of his aggressive new tightening of monetary policy, Fed Chairman Paul Volcker defends the need for higher interest rates, telling the Joint Economic Committee "the time has come to deal with" high unemployment and high inflation. He says that Americans must trim their living standards if inflation is to be reduced.
5. July 21, 2010
In his semi-annual report to Congress, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke tells the Senate Banking Committee the Fed has no plans to give additional support to the economy. The market swoons and Bernanke backtracks the next day, telling the House Financial Services Committee the Fed would ease if needed. By August, the Fed is hinting it will start more asset purchases, known as QE2, and the plan is established in November.
6. July 22, 1981
At a hearing of the House Banking Committee, Fed chairman Paul Volcker is viciously attacked by Republicans and Democrats alike who are tired of high interest rates and a crippling recession. Texas Democrat Henry Gonzalez announces he is drafting legislation to impeach Volcker, who he says is "sacrificing on the bloody altar, the lifeblood of small business." The hearing remains the high-water mark of Congressional anger towards a Fed chairman.
7. February 19, 1993
Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan tells the Senate Banking Committee that newly-elected President Bill Clinton's plan to cut the deficit is serious and credible, even though it is based on higher taxes. His backing soothes the concerns of so-called "bond vigilantes" on Wall Street. The Clinton plan is later passed without any Republican support.

Easter Week in Riogordo
Semana Santa de Riogordo (Málaga)
The representation of the death of Jesus Christ.
The most important event of the Easter week celebrations in Riogordo is the theatrical representation of the Passion. The dramatisation takes place on a natural stage, with space for an audience of more than 6,000 people. More than 500 amateur actors, mostly village residents, take part in this theatrical performance, that acts out the passion and death of Jesus Christ, on Good Friday and Holy Saturday. The montage lasts three hours and excels for its faithful representation of the gospel texts, its excellent setting and the realism of its scenes.

I don't remember having to complete any forms for criminal record checks or anything - I was offered the job the day after the interview and started work a few days later (in 2002). There are young students that live on campus but I guess they don't think its high priority to insist on such things?. If I see bullying when im working on my own, I'm not the best to deal with such things and warn people off, I'd probably be nervous of getting shouted at myself lol im really not the best at dealing with disruptive students, even though I'm at least a decade older than most of them - I really need to get more confidence for that sort of thing... I can't imagine a student deciding to confide in me either, I think I tend to look quite stressed so they gravitate more towards the others (who are too quick to point out my shortcomings to the students sometimes - ugh
). I'd like to seem/be more approachable but oh well...anyway sorry, prattling on again(!)

The Andalucia region
Roquets De Mar is divided into three sections, the commercial park (mall) the old town of Roquetas and he resort. This is a good mixture - and each area has something different to offer whilst on your holidays, the mall is enormous, under roof and has a good mixture of shops and restaurants to keep you busy for a day, the old town also has shops, bars, supermarkets and outdoor restaurants/tapas bars and the resort is approximately a 2 mile stretch of clean and well maintained beach. This area has a combination of apartments and hotels dotted along the coast.
If you are looking for crazy nightclubs and loud bars you have come to the wrong place, this place has a very safe feeling about the place, the locals are very friendly - most bars speak some English and will bend over backwards to accommodate.
There are a large selection of Tapas bars, some Tapas bars you have to pay something like 70 cents for the Tapas and some bars it is free but you will find that if you have to pay for the Tapas there is a better selection and the quality is better.
There are several coach tours run from the resort to places like Planet Hollywood, Granada, National park etc. We have left literature in the apartment.
Almeria city is accessible by local bus and it is only a few euros each way.
Roquetas de Mar
The complex "Las Alondras" was built about 20 years ago, it has a very Spanish feel about it, the block (block 1) is directly on the beach and view is just spectacular, you will never wake up in the morning in a bad mood when you look out at the Med.
There are restaurants and bars dotted around local area and the local supermarket is just down the road about 100 metres from the complex.
There are 2 British bars around the complex and they have Sky Sports and Internet access, I do believe they have Bingo twice a week, the owners have spontaneous nights like BBQ's , quizzes etc.. it is good fun especially if you have a few beers inside you, you just have to get in the swing of things..
There are quite a few hotels along the beach and they all have family entertainment, you are quite welcome to go into the bar and watch them and the cost of drink is surprisingly reasonable.
Besides the supermarket just down the road there are a number of other supermarkets within easy walking distance - just ask around.
There is a local bus which will take you to Roquetas and the Mall for about an euro each way just be careful It comes back a slightly different way - just keep your eyes open.
We have an agent who will look after all your needs and he also picks up and drops at the airport for approx. 35 euro each way.

Catapult, any of various engines of war used in ancient and medieval times to discharge javelins, darts, rocks, and other missiles. The larger kinds were mounted on a strong wooden platform; the trigger or projector of a gigantic crossbow was drawn back by ropes and held by a catch. Another type of catapult employed the principle of torsion to hurl heavy stones or objects over walls and across moats, cords being twisted by winches to pull back the propelling mechanism. Smaller hand-carried catapults were also used. (Encarta Encyclopedia, 1998)
Project specifications
Build a portable catapult that can launch a 10 lb. projectile 100 feet. The time duration for the project is 16 weeks.
Major Design Considerations
The catapult frame dimensions must meet the following functional requirements:
Material selection
Frame material
The two material choices for the frame of the catapult were wood and steel. Wood was chosen mainly because of its availability. The students also felt that a wood structure would be easier to cut and assemble. A complete list of the materials used for this project can been seen by accessing the link Bill of Materials
Source of Propulsion
A working model simulation, (see link Working Model Simulation) was created to determine the amount of force needed to launch a 10 lb. projectile 100 feet. The original plan was to purchase and test extension springs to create the desired force. Due to the cost of an extension spring, the students decided to use rubber bungi cords to produce the desired source of propulsion.
Choice of a Projectile
The students decided to launch one gallon containers full of water. The estimated weight of the projectile was 8-lb.
Initial Testing
Initial test results were as follows:
The students were obviously displeased with the initial results. The following changes were made
Final testing
During the final test the students were able to launch a 5-lb projectile a distance of 45 feet. At this point the winch had reached a maximum torque capacity and the failure was noticed in some of the wood screws. The students determined that safety constraints prohibited them from trying to achieve a greater launch distance.
Final modifications
The students replaced the lag screws in the winch with carriage bolts. A notch had to be cut into the winch arm to facilitate the carriage bolts. Extra bracing was put in place around the winch for future safety considerations
Catapult History
The catapult was an ancient siege machine that could hurl heavy objects or shoot arrows with great force and for considerable distances. Some catapults could throw stones weighing as much as 350 pounds for distances greater than 300 feet. The Greek Dionysius the Elder of Syracuse, who was looking to develop a new type of weapon, invented the catapult in 399 BC.
Catapults store energy by twisting large bundles of rope made from very strong plant fibers, animal sinew, or hair. Energy is stored by winding the catapult with a lever and gear arrangement, projectile is loaded, and the trigger releases the arm. The arm is designed in such a way that leverage converts the tremendous stored energy of the coil into kinetic energy with great speed. The catapult could fling rocks, burning pitch, or even enemy heads over the walls of a castle or fortified city. The torsion-powered catapult remained effective in medieval Europe until the advent of gunpowder, when cannons replaced it.

The Adventure Begins... A Ride Around The Hills
I woke up this morning and had absolutely nothing planned. I had a simple breakfast of an apple, pear and banana. It was nice having something light. I sat in the hammock for a while. Then I decided that I felt like taking a little day trip. I went on a hike the day before so something different was in order. There is a stretch of towns linked together by a road called 8W or La Ruta de Las Flores. I thought that I'd take Emi out for a ride along this route.
I removed my bags from Emi and headed out.
The first town was Apaneca. The town is noted for having painted murals on many of the houses. I rode street by street and snapped a few photos.
I suppose one could look at these simple murals as amateur drawings. But as a collection I think they make interesting folk art. They definitely capture the sentiments of the towns' people about their surroundings.
I'll post the entire collection of photos in another
Just outside of Apaneca I saw a sign for La Luguna Verde (The Green Lagun). I decide to check it out. 4 km is not too far. It started as a asphalt road, then turned to cobblestone, then to gravel, then to dirt and finally to rocks. It was a little unexpected, but it was a fun ride with Emi.
When I arrived at the laguna I found out why it might be called the Green Lagun. Although it is more of a lake covered with green, than a green lake. Sometimes it is not the destination, but the journey... that is the fun part.
I continued on...
It was about 1pm and I was getting a little hungry. I saw a sign for a restaurant for El Jardin de Celestre (The Celestial Garden). Pretty lofty name... so I decided to check it out. There was an intricate manicured garden on the inside. The dining area was very tastefully decorated. Bread with butter, herbs and olive oil and Salvadoran Enchiladas. Tiramisu and Chamomile Tea. And all the food was delicious. I could have taken a nap right there in the restaurant. But, I decided I should ride on.
The next town that I came across was called Ataco. It is noted for it's artesania and wall murals.
The first thing I noticed when I entered the town was this unique looking church. I'm not sure what style of architecture this might be, any guesses? They also had a nice park.
It was getting late so I needed to start heading back. It was a nice day of exploring without really having an agenda.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 10/11/12
Buster Posey came to Cincinnati wondering whether the San Francisco Giants were long for the postseason. Down 2-0 in the best-of-five National League Division Series to the Cincinnati Reds, Posey, a leading candidate for the league's MVP award in his first season back from a serious ankle injury, had been scuffling at the plate with a 3-for-17 start in the first four-plus games. Then the fifth inning of Game 5 on Thursday put Posey in an MVP moment, and he delivered MVP results. Clearly, after missing four months of the 2011 season, Posey is teaching the Giants a little something about comebacks. With the Giants leading 2-0, Posey came to the plate with the bases loaded against Reds' right-hander Mat Latos. "I just wanted to hit something hard, get it up in the air and get that run in from third," Posey said. He got the ball up -- and out of the park to left field for a grand slam to become the third catcher to ever hit a grand slam in modern postseason history. The ball r...

Watch These Animals Eating Ice Cream Like We'll Be Eating Turkey Soon — Daily Distraction
As our stomachs prepare for Thursday's massive caloric intake, let's take a look at how a few of our animal pals do it.
As our stomachs prepare for Thursday's massive caloric intake, let's take a look at how a few of our animal pals do it.
UPDATE 3:15 p.m. EST: The lockdown and shelter-in-place orders have been lifted, according to the Yale alert system. Police have been going door-to-door on campus searching for the gunman, though authorities will not confirm whether it may have been a hoax.
Just in case you need another warning: deep-frying turkeys can be dangerous. And here's proof.
We're getting a frightening and up-close look at one of the tornadoes that tore through the Midwest last weekend.
It's been 50 years since President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed while riding in a motorcade through Dallas, Texas. More words have been written about this event (and its aftermath, and what led up to it) than just about anything else, so we thought we'd take a look back through photographs and video.
Baby animals and baby bottles—that pretty much sums it up.
Cats may have nine lives, but these two felines have almost as many zeroes in their bank account.
The edge of the bed just kinda sneaks up on you sometimes, doesn't it?
Would you go bungee jumping without a harness? This woman would.
It's getting colder and colder out there, which means more ice to slip around on and play on and, inevitably, fall on.
It's harder to successfully karate-chop something than the movies make it look.
As if kids don't already have enough trouble staying on their feet.

If you were attracted to my profile you are alr…
If you were attracted to my profile you are already an amazing person. :) I seem to attract the most amazing people. (Its a gift, lol.) I live in Maryland and I do alot of business in NYC, Canada, & Europe and travel to those places often. I love to travel and thanks to my profession I have been all over the world. I have traveled throughout Europe and studied in Italy. Second to traveling, I love educational/collegiate atmospheres. I can often be found in a library or the local bookstore. My home is a place of rejuvenation, healing, peace, and quiet- so I've been told. I am a go-with-the-flow kinda person....at least I strive to be. I have alot of acquaintances, however only a few close friends; I keep my immediate circle small. I love music, good music: jazz, classical, rock, 90's hiphop, to techno, although I spend most of my time of leisure listening to meditation music. I'm loving, pretty laid back (usually the peacemaker in the bunch), very affectionate (I love to give and receive massages), supportive, goal oriented, energetic, spontaneous, creative, adventurous, industrious, and family oriented (I adore my family). I'm funny (again, so I've been told), very dainty/feminine, and respectful. I'm definitely a southern girl who's learned to hold my own on the east coast. I workout regularly and can be a bit of a health nut at times. I love reading and catching the latest movies (popcorn is my FAV!!). Going to amusement parks, being in nature or at the beach, attending live concerts is the cool by me. Unlike any other woman I know, I do NOT care much for shopping at all. I LOVE fashion, but I go into a mall with a specifc item in mind and then I'm done. I love children and they love me in return so being a teacher has been truly rewarding over the years. I enjoy long walks, reading in the park, pampering myself (facial, manicure, etc...), listening to soothing music, bike riding, and cleaning my house. I appreciate time to myself or what I like to call "creative/artistic space" and respect a man who feels the same. I desire to meet a man who is passionate about his goals, artistic, romantic, funny, intelligent, has a bit of style, and loves his family. Communication is pretty big for me. I enjoy great conversation or simply time spent together in silence. I can be pretty quiet when focused on a project. I desire to meet a man who communicates (verbally as well as non verbally)- often and well...("We can just talk or ....not talk", lolol. That's a line from the movie Best in Show). That's about it! Best regards!

Books and music (Jazz and Classical mostly). I mainly watch DVDs because I am not really into TV, unless is tv on dvd like Arrested Development, The Mentalist, The Simpsons, yada yada yada (very random stuff)
I LOVE the movies- previews and popcorn are a must!! Taking walks, going to games (major or minor league), reading outdoors (in beautiful serene landscapes), and spending quality time with my significant other when work is done. -Heaven on Earth!

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By Jacquie Bowser, brandrepublic.com, Monday, 02 November 2009 09:05AM
Lygo was paid a salary of £773,000, plus £12,000 in benefits and a bonus of £350,000 in the 2008/2009 financial year, according to figures obtained by ITV1's 'Tonight' programme.
Channel 4's chairman Luke Johnson told 'Tonight' that Lygo had volunteered to take a pay cut.
Johnson said: "Last year's total income for [Lygo] included a long-term incentive plan, which was a bonus spread over several years all payable in one year."

An animated super-slick "A Christmas Carol" with Scrooge voiced by Jim Carrey may be on movie screens this season, but the better choice for a bountiful helping of Christmas spirit is the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's adaptation of Charles Dickens' beloved Christmas story. The best special effect in the Rep's "A Christmas Carol" is the genuine good cheer you'll take with you when you leave the theater.
With its bold Gothic sets, its tightly constructed choreography and the rich sepia tones of the costumes, each scene under Joseph Hanreddy's direction is staged as a tableau reminiscent of a Victorian pop-up book or a Currier & Ives print, and it's James Pickering's Ebenezer Scrooge who unifies each tableau.
Scrooge's spiritual journey is the heart of this supernatural tale. Pickering is a marvel of sustained repression in Act One. His gestures are understated, making his rants against the poor even meaner and the gradual opening of his heart in Act Two even more significant. As Scrooge warms to the spirit of the season, the sets warm with splashes of color and softer lighting. When Scrooge impulsively kisses his housekeeper and then bursts into laughter at her shock, we see a changed man. It's a wonderful moment among many.
In fact many of the scenes in this production are all the more moving because of the crafting of small details to carry bigger meaning. Scrooge's heart resembles the lead paperweight he tosses at his nephew in an opening scene. When the Ghost of Christmas Present takes Scrooge to the Cratchits' home, the family's love for each other is reinforced in their costumes, with each Cratchit dressed using patterns of similar plaid.
And then there are the ghosts. Each one is staged with creative lighting and clever costuming. Marley's ghost, bound by his metaphoric chains and played by Lee E. Ernst with a hint of Beetlejuice, was my favorite.
From the Rep's stellar resident actors (all playing multiple roles) to individual standouts such as Torrey Hanson's Bob Cratchit, who displayed great strength in his meekness, and Nell Geisslinger's goofy giggling guest, Lucy, who I recognized from a few of my Christmas parties, the entire company was in strong voice and great form during Sunday's late matinee.
Dickens' themes of the need for kindness and generosity in a greedy world and that "a man's way of life should be deeper than his pockets" never get old. Wrapped in the Rep's production, they're a gift that'll warm the cockles of the coldest heart.

I seldom join night-outs with my girlfriends. I don't like it because they always manage to make me divulge my secrets. But last night, I was forced to be with them after watching a long awaited movie. We sat with a cup of ice cream at an ice cream parlor nearby and they started taking updates about our lives, more specifically, with our careers and love life. I tried not to join the conversation by being silent but they really insisted on making me join their conversation. The night ended with disappointment on their faces. They weren't able to get a scoop of my love life from me because I chose to be discreet about it.

Dell launches sub-$100 laser printer
- Related Stories
Dell packs up white-box programMarch 17, 2005
Dell goes wireless with printersNovember 18, 2004
The computing giant introduced its Dell Laser Printer 1100 on Tuesday. The device handles up to 15 pages a minute with a resolution of 600 dpi. Analysts predict competitors ranging from Hewlett-Packard to Lexmark will feel the pressure to offer something comparable, given that their low-end monochrome lasers start at roughly twice that price.
"Dell's laser is a disruptive price," said Charles Wolf, an analyst with Needham & Co., adding, "This could cause more consumers to shift over to laser."
Over the years, laser printers have lost market share to their cheaper counterparts, inkjet printers. During the first quarter, U.S. shipments of inkjet printers reached 6.5 million, compared with 1.6 million for laser printers, Wolf said.
That shift has come despite the relatively high speed with which laser printers can churn out documents of superior clarity. Laser printer toner cartridges also need to be replaced less frequently than cartridges for inkjet printers.
"Laser printers are not big in the home, but this could cause consumers to shift over to laser for big print jobs," Wolf said.
Dell is also aggressively pricing the toner for its new printer at $65 per 2,000 pages. Lexmark's cheapest E series monochrome laser printer, the E 232, carries a toner price tag of $94 per 2,000 pages.
"Dell is going to screw everybody," Wolf said.
Ink and toner serve as important, ongoing sources of revenue for printer manufacturers, who find they can sell the hardware at a discount and then more than make up for it later on in supply sales.
"Dell's intention is to consistently bring better prices to customers?I'm not sure whether this will trigger a price war," said Maggie Beery
Dell's move into printers over the past several years is part of its strategy to move beyond carrying only PCs. And with its direct sales channel, the computer giant is often able to undercut the prices of close competitors such as Hewlett-Packard and Apple Computer, which rely heavily on resellers and retailers.

- Samsung have been in the sub $100 zone for a while
- Samsung sells a laser for less than $80 after rebate. The toner is around $60 for 3000 pages. Dell is hardly breaking new ground. But I am sure it will have a significant impact on the major manufacturers.

- 75 EUR for P&P ???
- Well, I've never bought from Dell because for computers they want 75EUR for packaging. Add this to their prices and they aren't that cheap anymore.
Now I looked at the 1100 printer:
110EUR for the device itself + 75,40EUR for P&P!
I don't think many people will buy this...

- penny wise, pound foolish?
- From what I have read of online comments of such bargain printers as the Samsung, this may not be the way to go.
I suspect that the life of the print head or drum is very short and pricey to replace as it seems to be with the existing bargain laserjets on the market now!
This is what stopped me from buying one of the existing 'bargain' laser printers. You are buying a new printer in effect every six months or so.
Its still, "you pay em now or you pay em later".
Time will tell as to how long those print drums will last and how much the replacement cost is. I just bet that these printers will be a dissappointment. I have owned Lexmark Inkjets before and have smartened up and purchased an HP.
I clicked on the ads for the refurb HP LASER PRINTERS accompanying the article and on first glance this seems to be a much more reasonable way to go.
There'S still no free lunch, it seems!

- No kidding, these site is getting major Dell biased. It's getting ridiculous. Did they mention that using their own shopping engine you can get the HP toner for their equivalent printer for $38 or $50 from a reputable company? No, they mentioned the highest priced brand from Lexmark. Did they mention Brother, Samsung, or any one else who also has had printers in this price range for a long time? Did they mention the Dell is using older technology and has a horrible warranty? No again, and to top it off it's front page news. So much for unbiased accurate news. Oh well I guess I'll still come here for the robot stuff :)

- Who cares?
- Look: the printer costs $100 or less. The toner catrtidges cost $65 each for 2000 pages. That means the effective price of a replacement print head and drum is $35. Why would you replace them when you could just by a new printer?
Or, look at it another way:
Assuming a worst case scenario - where the drum and print head last as long as a single cartridge: I need to buy a brand new printer instead of just a new cartridge - and I pay 5c/page.
Assume the imaginary alternative - the print head and drum never wear out. So my net cost is 3.25c/page ($65 for a 2000 page cartridge).
Do I care? No.
I'd be more interested in the comparative price per page of toner cartridges for 'more robust' printers. Except that I'm more than happy with my current ink jet printer.

Michael Carter-Williams scored a career-high 18 points and added 13 assists and No. 7 Syracuse beat Central Connecticut State 96-62 on Monday, giving Orange coach Jim Boeheim his 902nd career win. Boeheim tied Bob Knight for second all-time in victories among Division I men's coaches. Duke's Mike Krzyzewski leads with 939.

A Brief History of Voyager 1 Not Quite Exiting the Solar System
You may have heard that Voyager 1 has exited the Solar System. And that it hasn't. This is a chronicle of that probe's greatest journey in headlines, including a few of our own. »

Last year, when Voyager I left our solar system for the lonely pastures of interstellar space, it carried a message for extraterrestrial life: A golden record containing images and words selected by Carl Sagan and others. But that was almost 40 years ago. Now, NASA is making a whole new message from the Earthlings of… »
Voyager I is now officially flying into interstellar space. In the future, an alien spaceship may come across it. When they do, they will find two things: a golden disc and a record player. These are the contents of that disc and how to interpret it. »
After months of back and forth, scientists now agree that NASA's Voyager 1 has become the first manmade object to leave the solar system. And it only took 36 years to make the 12 billion mile-long journey. »
For the very first time, a man-made object has reached the cosmic abyss beyond the farthest reaches of our solar system. As of today, Voyager 1 is the first spacecraft to begin the endless journey into deep space. »

Video artist Sander van cen Berg created this winsome video entirely out of still images from NASA's Cassini and Voyager missions. Because the video is constructed like a flipbook, it also has a retro feel that's hard to beat. »
Through technology, we've developed the ability to reach out into the distant corners of the universe. Rovers, orbiters, and deep-space probes. But regardless of how far away from us they extend, they all reach from a single point of origin: Earth. »
The spacecraft Voyager 1 is now 11 billion miles from the sun, at the very end of the solar system. It's peacefully sailing in a new region between us and interstellar space. NASA poetically calls it cosmic purgatory. »
We've finally done it. After more than 40 years, we finally have the green light on a Star Trek theme park, thanks to King Abdullah of Jordan. And it only cost a measly $1.5 billion to do it. I'm buying my ticket now. »
If I were an alien and I listened to these human greetings, I would totally freak out and destroy Earth. Fortunately, the original Voyager's Golden Records don't have that creepy background noise, just the voice of humanity and Gaia's sounds. »
For years, astronomers have been puzzled by the fact that our solar system is crossing a cloud of interstellar hell. One that shouldn't be there at all. Intergalactic plot to keep us isolated or cosmic event? Voyager got the answer. »
In space, nobody can hear you sing Dancing Queen when you are in the shower. But if you listen closely, you can hear the planets making noises. Noises so scary that make me want to move to another solar system. »

As the Mayor's Economic Development Taskforce continues seeking out new business ideas and strategies to improve Turlock's economic recovery, the 25 member board will meet on Tuesday afternoon, bringing forth diverse areas of expertise to help create an economic plan for the city.
Turlock Unified School District Trustee Dr. Harinder Grewal is adding his name to this November's ballot, as he seeks to replace incumbent Kristin Olsen (R-Modesto) in the California State Assembly.
As the Oscars generally fall in February or March, many are getting ready for award season. This year, a new "award" has been launched in the form of a political website – The Denham Awards.
With House Democrats filing a discharge petition on Thursday that would force Republicans to take a vote on raising the federal minimum wage to $10.10 per hour, pressure has increased to address the issue which has left many on different sides of the table.
Turlock has a new way of doing business, making the local economy stronger each day, says Mayor John Lazar.
Although the Turlock City Council voted unanimously to support a countywide transportation tax expenditure plan developed by the Stanislaus Council of Governments, the county's regional transportation planning agency, council members expressed skepticism as they moved forward, questioning whether or not the generated funds would truly benefit Turlock.
California Gov. Jerry Brown stopped in Stanislaus County Monday afternoon to talk with local officials on the impacts of the prison realignment program at the county level.
Homeowners who received home loan modifications in 2013 could be provided with tax relief should Senator Anthony Cannella's (R-Ceres) new bill, SB 339, get passed by legislators.
The California High Speed Rail Authority is heaving a sigh of relief, as the Federal Railroad Administration announced its decision to give the Authority an extension on a $180 million payment.
The City of Turlock is next on the list for representatives from the Stanislaus Council of Governments - the regional transportation planning agency - who are making their way through the county garnering support for a half-cent countywide transportation sales tax.
When the City of Turlock decided to hold a public workshop on the proposed increases to water rates, city staff were preparing for Turlock residents attending the meeting to be in opposition or protest. But as Wednesday's workshop came to an end, many of the residents were calling for the City to include harsher penalties for ratepayers, as they believe it would create an incentive to conserve water.
As the drought continues to devastate agriculture dependent communities, Gov. Jerry Brown has announced emergency legislation to immediately help communities deal with the extremely dry conditions, while providing funding to increase local water supplies.
The City of Turlock's Sunnyview Park might soon bear the name of the late Mayor Quaile Norton, following the request of a Turlock resident.
Although Councilmember Steven Nascimento's ordinance related to campaign finances did not gain approval at Tuesday's meeting, his other resolution aiming to refine the council's Code of Conduct was approved in a 3-2 vote.
Although many have heard that the City of Turlock has been considering a proposed increase in water rates, not everyone may know what those rates will fully entail. Fortunately, the City will be hosting a public workshop on the matter, giving an opportunity to the community to have their questions answered.
Page 18 of 71
More than 20 individuals have submitted applications to become Turlock's fire chief, according to City Manager Roy Wasden.
Since the Turlock Gospel Mission moved its Homeless Assistance Ministry out of the City of Turlock owned property at 1030 East Ave. last fall, the building has seen little activity. In the past, the building formerly known as the Youth Center was the site of a variety of recreation activities before been leased to the gospel mission.
Of the 877 City of Turlock rate payers sent warning notices regarding their water usage, only seven have been fined.
The populations and attributes of Turlock and Los Angeles may vary greatly, but that didn't stop Mayor Gary Soiseth and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti from finding some common ground in the essentials of governing a city: making sure the police are on patrol; that the garbage is picked up; and that water flows when the tap is turned on.
The City of Turlock is charting new territory with the Morgan Ranch Master Plan, a planned development on the south side of Turlock that will include a new school. It is the first time that a medium density residential range of this size will be collectively developed as an estimated 980 to 1,200 units are anticipated at full build out.

(SOAP Q) Freddie Smith Talks " GAY Days"!
Daytime dramas may be facing tough times, but the 45-year old NBC soap Days of Our Lives is taking steps to remain relevant and attract new viewers. They're generating some major buzz by turning to an underrepresented group – the gays.
This summer saw college-aged Sonny Kiriakis (played by Freddie Smith) pop up in the fictional town of Salem. The character is out and unapologetic about his orientation, and he's been busy befriending (and battling homophobia with) some of the younger set on the show.
While Sonny did have to tell some family members and residents that he was gay, the show let Sonny be a self-assured, confident young man who wasn't about let anyone's issue with his sexuality push him back in the closet.
The story coming up for goody-two-shoes Will Horton (Chandler Massey), however, is going to be fueled with much more angst and drama. Will apparently still needs to figure out that there's a reason why his girlfriend doesn't really get his motor running.
Could Will (pictured left) come to his senses and make a play for Sonny? Or will his gaze land on one of Salem's other hunky residents (Eric Martsolf and Shawn Christian in a gay love triangle?)
While the show has so far been keeping a lid on the particulars of Will's story (including not letting Massey talk to the press for now), AfterElton.com, video camera in hand, was able to grab some time with Smith on the Days set in Burbank last week.

Brentwood, TN (PRWEB) August 04, 2014
cbanc, the leading online educational network for financial professionals, selected Ncontracts to host a recent series of vendor management webinars for banking and credit union professionals.
Vendor management is a hot topic for financial institutions, which face growing compliance scrutiny and costs. The three part series included Financial Institutions and their Third Party Relationships, Elements to look for in a Contract, and Due Diligence and Risk Assessments. Monica Howeth, Director of Education for the cbanc Network said, "We produce each topic with an eye for the most relevant and current information to help our members excel at their job. Michael did a great job of providing information that was both timely and useful. The response to his series was so great that we will be running the same series again beginning on September 3rd."
"When a respected and trusted organization like cbanc invites you to host a webinar for their members, it provides your organization with immediate credibility. We are excited about our continued relationship with cbanc to provide the most relevant and current information on regulatory oversight of third party vendors," said Michael Berman, CEO of Ncontracts.
In addition to the cbanc webinar series, Mr. Berman will also be speaking at the following events this fall:

This information will help you prepare for your endometrial biopsy at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK).
During your endometrial biopsy, your doctor will remove a small piece of tissue from the lining of your uterus (endometrium). This tissue is then examined under a microscope to look for abnormal cells or signs of cancer.
Before Your Procedure
Tell your doctor or nurse if you are allergic to iodine or latex, or if there is a chance that you may be pregnant.
You do not need to do anything to prepare for this procedure.Back to top
During Your Procedure
Your doctor will do the endometrial biopsy in an exam room. It will take about 5 minutes.
You will lie on your back with your feet in stirrups. This is the same position you are in for routine pelvic exams.
Your doctor will insert a tool (speculum) into your vagina to hold it open. This allows your doctor to see your cervix, which is located at the end of your uterus.
Your doctor will clean your cervix with a cool, brown solution of povidone-iodine (Betadine®). He or she will put a thin, flexible tool through the speculum into your uterus and take a small amount of tissue from your endometrium. You will feel some cramping as the tissue is removed.Back to top
After Your Procedure
- You may have a small amount of vaginal spotting or bleeding. This may last for several days after the procedure.
- If your doctor approves, you can take medication for the cramping such as ibuprofen (Advil®). You can buy it at a drug store without a prescription.
- Do not douche for 48 hours unless your doctor tells you differently.
- Speak with your doctor or nurse about when it is safe for you to resume vaginal intercourse.
Call Your Doctor or Nurse if You Have:
- A temperature of 101° F (38.3° C) or higher
- Vaginal bleeding that is heavier than your menstrual flow
- Pain that does not get better after taking medication for cramping
- Any unexpected problems

when new books by Vella Munn are released.
Bio: According to Vella Munn, she has been writing forever. The author of over 40 published fiction books, she can't think of anything she'd rather do than lie for a living. Before taking the plunge into books, she honed her writing skills with some 40 fiction short stories, more than 20 non fiction articles, and less than memorable stint as a newspaper reporter. Her first books were category romance for the major publishers, but then her agent challenged her to try an historical, thus launching her love affair with Native Americana. For publisher Forge, she has written nine mainstream historicals to date, with more in the pipeline. In what time she doesn't spend at a computer, Vella delights in watching her grandson grow, hangs out with her writer friends, watches baseball, tries to keep her yard in some kind of shape, chases deer out of her garden, and walks--a lot. Whiteout, spawned in part from her family's mountain cabin, demanded to be written. However, the man against nature/survival tale isn't easily categorized, prompting her to turn to Hard Shell Word Factory.

I am so sorry that the person you want to be in love with is lost in drugs and alcohol. She doesn't love you and she doesn't love the other guy she loves doing drugs and alcohol. Please don't take it personally because she doesn't mean it that way. It's not that she doesn't want you she just wants drugs and alcohol more. You can't make someone stop using and you can't make them want to stop using, they have to come to that desire on their own. You have a broken heart and it will take time to heal but you need to let her go and keep yourself busy with other things and people and eventually find some one else to love.
So sorry.

Mark Manley

When ever you talk to her she gets more upset. She is not listening to you. She will probably do the opposite of anything you tell her to do. If you tell her to go to treatment she will probably go use more drugs. Best to stay away from her and let her work out her life. In the mean time occupy yourself with other activities, like friends, sports, games, service, etc.

karma trolls? who are these karma trolls and what exactly have they been doing.
hi everybody and welcome to Earth at war. This mod this mod is based of a massive war between the intergalactic empire, the Earth alliance and the Black hole pirates. The music is already done right now and we're now doing the modelling and the coding, however, we still need a rigger and a skinner and an additional modeller or coder would be welcome too.
Hi again, here's a new news update. I've got quite a lot to say this time.
Posted by megavin123 on Feb 2nd, 2012
First thing I'd like to discuss is that we decided to collabrate with the Vong at war mod. We'll make them some models and we'll get HQ textures in return. At the moment I'm working on something grand but I got orders from burtnstrobe to keep it a secret what the exact unit is. Once it's finished I'll continue making models for Earth at War again.
Second thing is that I will no longer tolerate these damn karma trolls. We will fight them with positive karma and when I find out who the troller(s) is/are I'll report them immidiately.
Third thing is that we're still in urgent need of a scripter. Off course an additional skinner or rigger would be welcome too.
Fourth thing is a progress update: I started working on the Imperial space armada for phase 1 and the Black hole pirate phase 1 space armada. Weapons will be converted too. Earth alliance will be using machine guns and stuff, Intergalactic Empire will use blue lasers and the Black Hole Pirates will use Purple lasers. The weapons will be upgraded when you advance in tech:
Earth Alliance weapons:
Phase 1: Modern warfare weapons
Phase 2: Pulse lasers & yellow laser canons
Phase 3: Phaser canons & Orange laser canons
Phase 4: Red laser canons
Phase 5: White laser canons
Intergalactic Empire weapons:
Phase 1: Blue laser canons
Phase 2: Green laser canons
Phase 3: Red laser canons
Phase 4: Megamaser canons (Inspired from Thrawns Revenge)
Phase 5: Hyperlasers
Black Hole Pirate weapons:
Phase 1: Purple laser canons
Phase 2: Plasma canons
Phase 3: Disruptor canons
Phase 4: Hyperlasers
Phase 5: Various dark weapons
These were just the main/basic weapons. There's a much bigger amount of different weapons.
Well, this was the news update of February, I hope you like it :P

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
Composition can make an interesting subject bland or make an ordinary subject appear beautiful. In this course, photographer and author Ben Long explores the concepts of composition, from basics such as the rule of thirds to more advanced topics such as the way the eye travels through a photo.
The course addresses how the camera differs from the eye and introduces composition fundamentals, such as balance and point of view. Ben also examines the importance of geometry, light, and color in composition, and looks at how composition can be improved with a variety of post-production techniques. Interspersed throughout the course are workshop sessions that capture the creative energy of a group of photography students; shooting assignments and exercises; and analyses of the work of photographers Paul Taggart and Connie Imboden.
If you're watching a composition course I assume it's because you've already recognized that seeing how to arrange the real world into a good photo is not easy. In fact, seeing is not easy. Now that may sound strange, given that you walk around the world using your eyes all day long, but as we'll discuss throughout the rest of this chapter, learning to really see the world around you can be difficult, and one of the reasons that it's difficult is because of the way your visual system is constructed. Now it's easy to think of the camera as like a mechanical eye, but that comparison really doesn't hold up under closer examination.
Yes, like your eye, your camera has a lens and an aperture and a light-gathering medium. It has a particular dynamic range, a field of view, it's subject to the laws of optics, and so on. But your eye differs from your camera in one extremely significant way, and that's that it has a human brain attached to it. Now it's tempting to think of the brain as simply the equivalent of the computer or film that's inside your camera, and it's true that like the computer in your camera, your brain serves an image- processing function, but it's a much more dramatic level of processing.
The computer in your camera handles the interpretation of color and perhaps contrast and sharpening of your image, but it has no impact on the content of your image. Now by comparison, fully 80% of what you perceive with your visual sense comes from your brain, not your eyes. Most of what you see around you is made up by your brain. Optical illusions are the best example of this. Consider this. If you were to point your camera at this, it would record precisely what it is, a set of lines on a flat screen. But when you point your eyes at this, something else happens.
Because of your brain's involvement in your visual sense, you are incapable of perceiving this as what it really is, a flat, two-dimensional collection of lines. Instead, your brain recognizes a configuration of lines that are very like those of a three-dimensional object, and so rather than showing you flat lines, it's trying to perceive this scene as an object with depth. But it's not an object with depth and so your brain can't quite pull it off, which is why the cube appears to flip back and forth.
Optical illusions are simply the result of your brain's expectation of a scene colliding with the visual reality. Confusion ensues and your brain interprets the scene incorrectly. To sum it up, your camera is objective; it captures an image of what's there. But your brain is subjective; it interprets the scene before you-- and this often gets in the way--of you actually being able to see the scene accurately. However, as we'll discuss next, your brain's interference in your visual sense goes far beyond your perception of simple lines and shapes.
