There is absolutely, positively NO way this is EVER going to happen. The profit isn't there, and unless Apple has a whole new approach to how TV should work, they're not going to go there. Unless they take a good HDMI screen and couple it with essentially an Apple TV plug in module, a devoted set can't work. It won't work. The ROI for something like this just isn't there.
Apple television set for 2012/2013?
VentureBeat boldly restarts the Apple television set rumors this weekend, saying it's "almost certainly" being prepared for 2012 or 2013 according to "multiple sources in Silicon Valley". They backup the claim by citing numerous analysts, many of whom have records so hit and miss with Apple predictions that magic 8-balls could give them a run for their money, as well as a few opaque quotes from the WSJ and sites with equally hit or miss records.
An Apple-based television makes sense in light of Apple's continued expansion out of the computer industry into the larger consumer electronics market.
But here's the thing -- Apple isn't expanding into the larger consumer electronics market at all. They're slowly, step by step, adding very specific products that leverage existing technologies like iOS, can be put together with lower component costs than the industry average, will sell for higher margins than the rest of the industry, and offer better customer experiences than any of the competition.
Television sets are currently a cut-throat, low margin business. Sure, like computers, there a high-end premium market Apple could aim for, and like the smartphone market, existing suppliers have been battling it out on specs, leaving their flanks wide open for disruption on the experience side -- but is it a market where Apple could sell hundreds of millions of iOS devices?
They're trying with Apple TV, priced at only $99, and it's remained a "hobby". Certainly adding a secondary box (after the cable box) is nowhere near as elegant a solution as having iOS built into the TV itself, but it's also one that doesn't require consumers to buy a whole new television set.
The last time there were strong rumors about an Apple television set, TiPb heard it was really a 27-inch iMac. Now we have a 27-inch iMac and still no television set. We haven't heard anything about Apple working on a 32-inch iMac (or cinema display) to justify these new rumors, but we have been around long enough to know Apple won't release anything that doesn't grow their business.
That's not to say Apple isn't working it. They're likely working on dozens of new devices, many of which they'll say their famous "no" to and will never see the light of day. There were rumors and denials about phones for years before the iPhone, and rumors about the iPad immediately thereafter. From media to consumer, we always want to know what'll be the next big thing from Apple. But what could and Apple television bring to the table, both for Apple and consumers, that Apple TV doesn't already?
Don't get me wrong, based on design and build quality alone, I'd love an Apple television, especially if Apple could figure out how, like iPad, to deliver great technology at a great price. I'd love how AirPlay and other iOS features would "just work" with my existing iPhone, Mac and other devices. But it would have to somehow disintermediate the cable and media companies the way iPhone disintermediated the carriers, or the way iPad sidestepped them completely. And as Steve Jobs said at the All Things D conference, that's an even trickier bunch of nuts to crack.
It by no means "makes sense" right now, and Apple won't ramp it up until it does, and won't mention it until Tim Cook or another executive takes stage.

Apple television set for 2012/2013?
I already have a 27" iMac. With a screen that big, why should I have to buy another screen?! Just keep the apply tv as is and make imac's serve as duel purpose: computer and tv. It's silly that I have two huge screens in my room.
VentureBeat is a joke in my book. Rumors are bad enough but when news I rely on becomes tabloid like, I do not shy from sharing negative opinion with others. So OPINION: VentureBeat is "Almost certainly" a Joke!
Speculation can be fun at times, but I think many readers and some journalists are getting tired of it.
Im huge Apple fan, but the Apple Tv doesnt yet offer anything new or necessary, not with even the common quality of Apple. I dont see it growing

No, thank you!
Works on the pet, but not the DK. I haven't seen anyone use Lichborne and get Shackled yet, your still technically considered humanoid in PVP.
Exorcism works on Lichborne, so I'd have to say Shackle would as well. You aren't technically humanoid when an ability changes you out of it, (see: Metamorphosis and Demo Warlocks. They aren't Humanoid, they ARE demons.)Originally Posted by Kassatsu

Lichborne DKs ARE undead and therefore every ability which requires the target to be undead works. This is also true for other forms like warlocks demon form making them demon (obviously) or the druid tree form making them elemental (yes cou can banish resto druids...).
Funniest thing I ever saw was two demo warlocks duelling, first one popped Meta, second warlock banished first one. Alliance Ret shows up, and Second Warlock gets scared, pops Meta to start blasting him to hell. Then gets Exorcism crit'd in the face, Turned, and wtfpwnd.

My biggest question, in this case, is if two warlocks face up, one Morphs, and the other enslaves him, what happens? Is he the other guy's pet up until the duration finishes, or is he stuck like with Banish?Originally Posted by Ghrim
Further, and this is nothing new, can you enslave another Warlock's pet?

so, an Unholy DK, could be shackled or Turned for....15 seconds? wewt? Barely even worth mentioning. Might as well just say " no, they are not."
In PvP, times are reduced, even before DR. So if a Lichborne DK gets turned, it won't be for the full duration. Same with Shackle. It will last as long as a PvP Sap (10 sec).
Caerdwyn | Level 91 Fire Mage <For Instance> | Nagrand-US
Yes, Death Knights can be shackled while Lichborne.
Yes, their pet can be shackled.
Yes, when they resurrect as a ghoul they can be shackled.
Yes, players resurrected as a ghoul by the death knight can be shackled.
No, you cannot fear them unless you're an OPdin.
Did I miss anything?
It's really rather amusing that you think 15 seconds doesn't matter in PvP.Originally Posted by Endriago
10 seconds is a lot of time they're CC'd... especially if they popped their pvp trinket already.
Maybe thats the reason why a good DK would never use lichborne against a pala or priest?
I can't even remember the last time I saw a dumber and more noob comment than this. I'm gonna take a wild guess here and say you're not on a pvp server.Originally Posted by Endriago
Just wow.
If a shaman tells you that he can't tank, he's just not doing it right.

In recent years, I haven't taken as much time to sit down and read good books as I once had. So this summer, I've tried to do some reading.
I recently finished reading books about Michael Oher, the football player of "The Blind Side" fame, and former Major League baseball player Roger Maris, whose 61 home runs in 1961 broke Babe Ruth's single-season record. Maris was one of my first baseball heroes because, like him, I bat lefty and throw righty.
Sometimes, I'm so busy writing that I don't want to spend a lot of time reading. So I'm a binge reader. I'll read three, four or five books in a few weeks — and then not read another book for several months. The summer is usually when I find the most time to read.
As an elementary school student, I developed a love for reading biographies of famous athletes. I believe reading those first books about Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Knute Rockne and others helped steer me toward being a sports writer.
The first sports biography I bought was John Devaney's "The Baseball Life of Mickey Mantle." I purchased it through the Weekly Reader's Scholastic Book Club.
That was one of at least a half-dozen books on him that I've bought and read. I'm reading another biography, Jane Leavy's "The Last Boy: Mickey Mantle and the End of America's Childhood."
I once got in trouble in a high school algebra class for reading a book about Hall of Fame third baseman Brooks Robinson. I should have been paying attention in class, but baseball was always more interesting than trying to solve for x.
Today we can read books on our electronic devices. We don't need to go to the library to check out the latest must-read.
However, I still prefer to take a book in hand and get comfortable in my favorite chair as I flip the pages and transport to another time and place.
My personal library is scattered in various bookshelves and boxes. I prefer sports biographies and books that help me grow in my Christian faith.
I have never been to China, but I traveled there in my mind as I read a biography about Bill Wallace, a missionary killed by the Communist government in China more than 60 years ago.
I never saw Babe Ruth swing a baseball bat, or witnessed a young Vince Lombardi play football at Fordham University, but I can almost hear the crowds roar for these sport giants. Just as summer is a good time for boys and girls to exercise their bodies, it also can be a good time to exercise their minds.
No matter what your interest is, you can find a book on that subject — and you don't have to wait for your favorite program to come on television.
Several years ago there was a television public service announcement that stressed, "Reading is Fundamental." Reading also is fun. Have you read any good books lately?

Rebecca Sunshine Domski, 40, died tragically from a fall in Warren on Sunday, October 21, 2012.
She was born July 13, 1972, on Staten Island, New York, the daughter of Ronald Domski and Ellen Domski (Klindtworth Bissonnette). In 1976, she moved to Addison County, Vermont, with her mother, her sister Heather Jude and her stepfather Wilfred Bissonnette.
Becky attended Lincoln and Starksboro elementary schools and graduated from Mt. Abraham (1990), where she was active in sports and extracurricular activities and was the president of her class. She then went to Johnson & Wales in Providence, RI, where she graduated with a degree in hotel and restaurant management. Her outgoing personality suited her career choice well, and she worked in managerial positions at several resort hotels.
She traveled extensively, loved the ocean and lived most of her adult life on Block Island, a small island off the coast of Rhode Island where she opened a gift and gallery shop, 234 Water. She had a distinctive eye and loved selecting artwork and supporting local and Vermont artists to feature at 234 Water. She returned to Vermont in 2010 and worked opening the General Store at Sugarbush.
Becky was naturally thoughtful, selfless and had a truly generous spirit. She had an infectious laugh and brought joy to those around her. She was full of life, positive and uplifting. She made you feel like the only person on earth when you had her attention.
She is survived by her parents and stepparents, Ellen and Bill Bissonnette and Ron and Patricia Domski, her sister Heather Jude Domski, her brothers Nickolas, Philip and Maurice Bissonnette and his wife Emily, as well as beloved aunts, uncles and cousins; Jon MacKenzie and his family. She had as many dear friends on Block Island and in Vermont and spent time in Warren with her friend Jon Mott.
There will be a wake for Rebecca Sunshine Domski from 5 to 8 p.m. this Friday, October 26, at the Brown-McClay Funeral Home, 4 South Street, Bristol, VT. A Memorial Service will be held at 3 p.m. on Saturday, October 27, at the United Church of Lincoln, 23 Quaker Street, Lincoln, VT.
All are welcome. Come celebrate the life of a beautiful person who touched so many lives and lived life so fully. Blessed are we.
For those who wish, contributions in her memory can be made to the Block Island Conservancy at www.biconservancy.org or to Project Graduation at Mt. Abraham Union High School, (802) 453-2333.

Unexpected error encountered. Please try again later.
A price quote has been sent to this email address:
Widget Not Available!!!
New body. Same soul.
About the size of a credit card - and just 5.4mm thin - the new iPod nano is the thinnest iPod ever made. The 2.5-inch Multi-Touch display is nearly twice as big as the display on the previous iPod nano, so you can see more of the music, photos, and videos you love. Buttons let you quickly play, pause, change songs, or adjust the volume. The smooth new anodized aluminum design makes iPod nano feel as good as it sounds. And iPod nano wouldn't be iPod nano without gorgeous, hard-to-choose-from colors.
How to get your groove on.
Tap to play your favorite songs. Or entire albums. Or everything by one artist. You can even browse by genres or composers. Flip through your music: Album art looks great on the bigger screen. Or to keep things fresh, give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a different song in your music library.
Genius. Your own personal DJ.
Say you're listening to a song you love and you want to stay in the mood. Just tap Genius. It finds other songs on iPod nano that go great together and makes a Genius playlist for you. For more song combinations you wouldn't have thought of yourself, create Genius Mixes in iTunes and sync the ones you like to iPod nano. Then tap Genius Mixes and rediscover songs you haven't heard in a while - or find music you forgot you even had.
The really small big screen.
Now you can watch episodes of your favorite TV shows, Hollywood blockbusters, free video podcasts, and home videos on your iPod nano. View them on the widescreen 2.5-inch Multi-Touch display. Tap to play, fast-forward, rewind, and pause. With iPod nano, you can have a little entertainment whenever - and wherever - you want.
Your music experience gets even better now that iPod nano has Bluetooth 4.0 built in. Pairing iPod nano with Bluetooth-enabled headphones and supported speakers is a cinch. With no wires in the way, working out with iPod nano is even easier. (No more getting wires caught in your free-weights.) And if your car's sound system is Bluetooth enabled, when you sit down in the driver's seat, your iPod nano is ready to pick up where you left off. Without missing a beat.
FM radio keeps you up on what's going on out there - the game, the top news stories, your favorite talk shows - or whatever you love listening to. Just plug in your headphones and tap to see the controls. Flick the radio dial to change stations. Tap to set your favorites. Need to take a break? With Live Pause, you won't miss a minute. Just tap to pause the song or show, then tap again to continue. You can even rewind as far back as 15 minutes, so you can be sure of the lyrics you're belting out. Or fast-forward to catch up to a live broadcast.
All-new EarPods.Completely re-imagined from the sound up.
Apple designers and engineers had the goal of creating earbuds that rest and stay comfortably inside a variety of ear types - while also producing the best sound quality possible. They tested 124 different prototypes on over 600 people. The result is a breakthrough for earbud headphones. They're called EarPods. They look unlike anything you've ever seen. They sound unlike any earbuds you've ever heard. And the audio quality is so superior, they rival high-end headphones.
Lightning Connector.Smart. Durable. Reversible.
Making iPod nano thinner required a bold move: Replacing the 30-pin dock connector with something newer, smaller, and better. It's called Lightning, and it's significantly more durable than the 30-pin connector. It's also reversible, so there's no wrong way to plug in the cable. If you have an iPod nano accessory that depends on the 30-pin connector, you can still connect it to your iPod nano with a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter (sold separately). Though with more and more accessories adding wireless capabilities through Bluetooth technology, thankfully cords and cables needn't be a concern.
Fitness. Feel the beat. And the burn.
iPod nano is the perfect workout partner. It gives you some much-needed musical motivation and provides real-time feedback. Since Nike+ support and a pedometer are built into iPod nano, theres no need to connect a receiver or use a shoe sensor to track your steps, distance, pace, time, and calories burned. Built-in Bluetooth technology lets you wirelessly connect to heart-rate monitors and headphones, making it easier to exercise. And at the end of your workout, sync iPod nano to nikeplus.com to track your daily activity and goals, check your NikeFuel, and monitor your fitness progress against yourself and your friends. Then get ready to do it all again tomorrow.
Photos. Picture these. Anywhere.
Carry around a few thousand photos and no matter where you are, you're ready to share in an instant. The larger screen on the new iPod nano is perfect for viewing photos. Just pinch and zoom, and prove to your coworkers that you're smiling (not screaming) on the zip line in Costa Rica. Or laugh at your dog's latest sleeping position. Because on top of everything else iPod nano does, it makes an excellent little brag book.
Podcasts. All your podcasts. All in one place.
Chances are, there's an audio or video podcast for just about anything you're into. And you can listen to and watch it right on iPod nano. Browse podcasts through the podcast directory in iTunes. When you find one (or more than one) you're interested in, subscribe. That way you won't miss an episode. Oh, and the best part? Thousands of them are free.
iTunes. Everything you need to be entertained.
iTunes is the easiest way to fill your iPod nano with music, movies, TV shows, audiobooks, podcasts, and more. Just buy from the iTunes Store on your Mac or PC, or import your CD collection into iTunes. Then you can make your own playlists, create Genius playlists, choose Genius Mixes, and sync it all to your iPod nano.
iPod nano comes with accessibility features that help people with disabilities enjoy music, audiobooks, and more.
The redesigned, ultraportable iPod nano has a larger, 2.5-inch Multi-Touch display; plays music, FM radio, and videos; includes built-in Bluetooth technology; and features a pedometer and Nike+ support for fitness.

Single-payer advocates offer slate of taxes to pay for itBy PETER HIRSCHFELD
Vermont Press Bureau | December 11,2012MONTPELIER A group that helped build the political will for single-payer health care in Vermont has issued a report telling elected officials how to pay for it.
The Health Care is a Human Right Campaign unveiled a 17-page proposal Monday in which it identifies a combination of income and payroll taxes as the most equitable means of financing the new system. More a conceptual framework than a solid proposal the report doesnt estimate overall system costs or calculate the dollar value of the new revenue streams the report says its blend of financing options would place the lions share of the financial burden on those best able to afford it.
And thats been one of the key principles from the beginning, said James Haslam, director of the Vermont Workers Center, which oversees the campaign. The Shumlin administration is doing all the work to figure out how much its going to cost, and were essentially saying this is the most equitable way to come up with the money.
Administration Secretary Jeb Spaulding said he was impressed with what he called a very well-written report. It will be a helpful document as the dialogue on how to pay for single-payer takes place in the coming months and years, Spaulding said.
As to the specific proposal, which would use a mix of corporate and personal income taxes, combined with a progressive payroll tax, Spaulding said, In general they make a strong case.
There is no question that the income tax is, in a sense, the most fair way to raise money, Spaulding said. And I think you also have to balance that with some other things so that we dont overwhelm any particular revenue source. So a balancing test is also going to be required.
Act 48, the single-payer law that charts the states course toward a publicly financed, universal system of care, calls on the Shumlin administration to propose a means of funding the plan by Jan. 15. Shumlin, however, has said that the timing was probably a mistake.
I pushed for that language because I wanted to get it done by 2015, Shumlin said during an appearance on The Mark Johnson Show on Oct. 31. In fairness to legislative leadership, they said youre not going to be able to do it by then. And it was probably a mistake on my part to make it that specific.
Now that hes come to terms with the fact that Vermont wont obtain the federal waivers it needs to proceed with single-payer until 2017, he said his administration wont recommend a financing plan until 2015 at the earliest.
As for Act 48, the 2010 law that requires the administration to deliver to lawmakers a financing plan next month, Shumlin said, We will comply with the law.
But we will not be ready for prime time, Shumlin told Johnson.
Spaulding said Monday that he doesnt expect the Legislature to spend much time debating the merits of specific financing options next year.
But John Franco, a Burlington lawyer who worked as a paid consultant for the Shumlin administrations health care team in 2010, said he thinks the legislative debate should begin in earnest in January. Franco is a longtime health care policy analyst but doesnt currently have an official role with those working on the issue.
We need to start having this discussion now, Franco said. Theres this desire to kick the can down the road for another biennium and not even have a discussion about what were doing. Thats not good policy, and its not fair to the people of Vermont.
Franco said the proposal from the Health Care is a Human Right Campaign would result in a catastrophic dislocation of the economy. He said a successful public financing plan would need to come up with the $1.7 billion that employers and individuals currently pay for private health insurance (that figure will rise as health care costs inflate between now and 2017).
In 2010, Franco said, Vermonts income tax raised just shy of $500 million.
So think about what youre going to have to do to income taxes to get anywhere close to that $1.7 billion figure, Franco said Monday.
Not only is the plan not remotely viable politically, Franco said, but it takes a financial burden currently shouldered by employers and places it on the backs of working Vermonters.
Haslam said the progressive payroll tax to be assessed only on employers and not workers would take some pressure off the income tax. He said the plan envisions ways to tweak the tax code on corporate income so as to capture more money from large companies.
The plan also aims to tax not just income but wealth i.e., the dollar value of personal assets and would raise about $31 million annually by ending favorable tax treatment for investment income. The Health Care is a Human Right Campaign also rejects the use of any user fees, like copays, deductibles or premiums, to help pay for the system.
The Shumlin administration inked a $300,000 contract with the University of Massachusetts Medical School this summer to help devise a series of financing options. The administration will present a report to lawmakers Jan. 15.

With Zuffa contract complete, former Strikeforce boss plans to travel, not promote
Several weeks ago, Scott Cokers contract with UFC parent Zuffa came to an end, freeing the longtime promoter to pursue other interests.
Right now, however, those interests are not related to MMA. The former Strikeforce head, who in 2011 sold his promotion to UFC parent company Zuffa, told MMAjunkie he plans to travel and see what the world has to offer before even considering a jump back into MMA.
The phones been ringing, but Im not going to take something thats just out there because I feel like I have to do it, Coker said. It has to be the right deal, and it has to be the right deal for me, because I think I could bring a lot of value to a company. Im not in a hurry.
Coker inked a three-year contract to work for Zuffa as part of the industry-leaders buyout of Strikeforce, which came at reported price tag of $40 million. Initially, he continued to represent the promotion at events before stepping behind the scenes in 2012. Zuffa folded Strikeforce in January 2013 and absorbed its fighter roster into the UFC.
Cokers contract does not contain a non-compete clause, meaning he isnt restricted from promoting MMA.
The end of Strikeforce as an independent organization helped push Bellator into the de facto No. 2 position behind the UFC while also creating a perception that the industry-leader was closer than ever to a monopoly. In fact, the sale of the San Jose, Calif.-based promotion was the catalyst for an FTC investigation.
The government in early 2012 ruled that Zuffas role in the MMA industry did not meet the standard of a monopoly.
In its heyday, the promotion Coker started as a kickboxing showcase broke the North American attendance record for MMA and drew over one million viewers as a Showtime property. It spawned the careers of several current UFC stars, including Daniel Cormier, Luke Rockhold, Ronaldo Jacare Souza and Tarec Saffiedine.
Although the Zuffa buyout didnt come without a certain amount of bittersweet feelings, Coker feels positive about his time with the industry-leader.
My tenure with the UFC is completed, and I will say this, everything they said they were going to do, they did, he said. I have a lot of friends there that I developed over the last three years, and I wish them luck and much success.
As to whether he still has the passion to work in MMA, Coker insists his love for the sport remains strong. But he also is realistic about the investment needed to run a successful promotion, which is why the urgency to return to his old job isnt there at the moment.
I think my track record not just in MMA but martial arts, Ive proven that Ive contributed a lot of my life to it, he said. Ive sacrificed a lot, and so yes, I still love martial arts. Its something I still have passion for.
But the other side of it is its a very time consuming proposition when youre in this business, and its draining and it affects everything from your household to your family. Its a business that when youre in it, its a 24/7 business. Theres really no time off, and from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, youve got to be in the zone to run your company. So theres a lot of sacrifice.

Early this month, the Adjutant General for Oklahoma, Maj. Gen. Myles Deering, brought all of his senior commanders and many other senior leaders together at the Oklahoma National Guard's Regional Training Institute to meet with behavioral health specialists. The topic of the meeting was combating Soldier suicide and Deering made sure that all in attendance knew that preventing suicide is one of his top priorities.
Some six months after the return of the 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT) from Afghanistan, Guard officials are dealing with the reality that local Guardsmen are almost as likely to die by their own hand as they are from enemy contact. Since 9/11, 19 Oklahoma Citizen-Soldiers have died in Iraq and Afghanistan, but during the same period another 16 committed suicide, including nine in the past two years.
"I want you (commanders) to know how intent I am on finding a solution that will help us solve this problem. You are going to get everything I've got," Deering told about 80 top military officials. "I need you to help me get out front as leaders because I can't touch all 10,000 Soldiers and Airmen. We have to work together to come up with answers that will help these young people."
Fourteen Oklahoma Army National Guard Soldiers made the ultimate sacrifice over a three month period last year while serving their country in Afghanistan with the 45th IBCT. Between late July and early November 2011, the 45th was repeatedly engaged by well-armed insurgents in the most desolate places in eastern Afghanistan. And, on multiple occasions, if the Oklahoma Soldiers didn't find the enemy, the enemy found them and detonated improvised explosive devices (IEDs). During this period, the 45th engaged in its toughest fighting since the Korean War.
Some Oklahoma Army National Guardsmen have found it difficult to put the war in Afghanistan behind them.
But, the war alone doesn't seem to be the reason for the rising number of suicides. Five of the nine Soldiers that killed themselves in the last two years had never deployed. However, there were similarities in some of the recent deaths of Oklahoma Guardsmen. All nine were male and many of them had been drinking alcohol shortly before they died. They were all either Caucasian or Native American. The majority shot themselves and the others died by hanging. Subsequent investigations indicated that almost all of them were dealing with problems in relationships.
David Harris with the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services told the military brass that they need to convey to their Soldiers and Airmen "how it's okay to ask for help, how it's okay to talk about depression, how it's okay to talk about mental illness - a true warrior can surrender when he needs to ask for help." Harris went on to explain that leaders in the room need to create an environment where people are encouraged to reach out when they are struggling.
Dr. Bryan Stice, a psychologist and suicide prevention case manager for the Department of Veterans Affairs, suggested a three-tiered approach. First, you reduce the stigma and encourage individuals to reach out for help. Second, you target those Soldiers that are high risk, that are known to have suffered from traumatic brain injury or have been diagnosed with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). And finally, you have to have effective policies and procedures in place for folks that are known to be suicidal.
The Oklahoma National Guard's approach to combating suicide is continuing to be refined and additional emphasis is being placed on preventing it.
"I look at this as a preventable loss of life," said Brig. Gen. Emery Fountain, special assistant to the Director of the Army National Guard. While admitting there are a lot of good programs in place, he encouraged the leaders to go well beyond implementing effective programs and place a priority on staying better connected with their Soldiers.
By the end of this month, nearly all Oklahoma Army National Guard Soldiers will have gone through mandatory suicide prevention and resiliency training. The training is designed to help them identify and cope with situations that have led some Soldiers to commit suicide. In addition to providing tools that are meant to help the individual, it's designed to train Soldiers on how to help one another.
"The Guard's commitment to the health and well-being of our Soldiers, Airmen and their families is unwavering," said Lt. Col. Max Moss, an Oklahoma Guard spokesman. "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. When a Soldier takes his own life it's devastating to not only the Soldier's family, but also for the men and women that served with the Soldier."
Confidential help for Veterans and their families is available by calling the Veterans Crisis Line (U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs) at 1-800-273-8255, then press one.

Is it just me or does that seem overly complex. [shrug] Thanks for the article though.
How to manage Newsstand subscriptions directly on your iPhone and iPad
Newsstand, Apple's own subscription service for magazines and newspapers, allows you to read all your content in one place without having to mess with physical print content any longer. It's super easy to subscribe to publications but what about when you want to unsubscribe to something?
You can always use iTunes on your computer to manage subscriptions but why go through all that trouble if you can unsubscribe from Newsstand content straight from your iPhone and iPad as well. Here's how.
- Launch Settings from the Home screen of your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap on iTunes & App Stores.
- Here you'll see your Apple ID at the very top in the form of your e-mail address. Tap on it.
- A pop-up will come up. Choose View Apple ID.
- You'll be prompted to type in your password. Type it in and then hit OK.
- Under the Subscriptions section, tap on Manage.
- You'll see a list of anything you've subscribed to that requires a yearly or monthly renewal. Find the magazine or newspaper subscription you want to renew or cancel and tap on the name.
- Here you'll see renewal options. You can choose to cancel auto-renewal if you haven't already or renew the subscription further. Make your choices and enter your information.
- Once you're done managing all your subscriptions you can simply tapDone in the upper right hand corner.
That's all there is to it. Your subscription settings will be updated and become affective immediately or for your next billing cycle.

How to manage Newsstand subscriptions directly on your iPhone and iPad
I don't think it's overly complex at all. It's just in your Apple ID settings so I'm not sure what's complex about that....
C'mon Ally, of course it's complex and confusing. I looked for this for ages, and only found instructions to do it via iTunes on Apple support forums, where no one knew how to do this via iDevices. I've used Newstand since the beginning and never figured this out. You subscribe there, so you should be able to unsubscribe from there as well. It makes no sense to divide actions of the same context between two completely different areas. Imagine if you added contacts via the Contacts app, but could only remove or edit under settings->contacts. This is 10 times worse.
Anyway, if you even have to do a post to explain it, screen by screen, it's complex by definition.
Next can you show us how to hide news stand?
That made me chuckle. On a serious note there are some subscriptions where you can't transfer your subscription from hard copy over to iOS although the magazine publisher says you can in their marketing material. The magazine "Stuff" in particular- they will happily take payment but then when problem is reported just say "we are looking into it" - that was weeks ago!
Wow, surprised to see I had some auto renew subscriptions becoming active hat I did not authorize. Cancelled immediately. Great tip.

Set against the backdrop of the dramatically distinctive Port Arthur Historic Site penitentiary building, the tattoos and pageantry of bygone years will be repeated at the Port Arthur Historic Site following the Easter break.
In the vein of Beating the Retreat, an impressive array of bands and performers from across the state will come together and provide an evening of entertainment that is sure to wow the whole family.
The inaugural Port Arthur Tattoo is brought to you as a generous show of support to the local community following the January bushfire emergency which effectively put a halt on business operations for ten days during the ordinarily, very busy month.
A committee of band representatives from across the state, coordinated by the Tasmania Police Pipe Band, have collaborated to stage this performance which the Rosny branch of RACT is sponsoring and the Port Arthur Historic Site Management Authority (PAHSMA) is proud to present.
Maria Stacey, Visitor Services Manager at Port Arthur, said the Tattoo will be an opportunity to collect donations for the Red Cross Tasmanian Bushfires 2013 Appeal.
"However the purpose of the Tattoo is threefold," she added. "We certainly want to raise money for the recovery, but we're also very keen to help revive tourism by encouraging people to stay the weekend in the region. And, of course, our ultimate hope is that the Tattoo will be a joyous and entertaining evening for the community. We want to support the recovery in all of these ways."
"We are especially delighted that the RACT's Rosny Branch has been able to support the Tattoo. RACT led the response to support those who lost property during the bushfires." RACT continue to support bushfire victims with a special Bushfire Recovery funding round of their RACT Community Fund.
The Port Arthur Tattoo program will feature exhilarating performances by The Tasmania Police Pipe Band, The Clarence Concert Band, City of Hobart Highland Pipe Band, St Andrews Caledonian Pipe Band, Derwent Scottish Pipe Band, Hobart Australian Navy Cadet Band, Army Band Tasmania and the fleet footed Hobart Irish Dancers and the Hobart Highland Dancers. Entertainers Andrew Colrain and Daryl Peebles will delight as your comperes for the show.
The Port Arthur gourmet barbeque will be available packed with tasty treats and local distiller William McHenry & Sons will be on site to tempt you with his single malt whisky.
Pack your picnic blanket or grab your folding chair, stake your spot on the grass and enjoy an amazing performance, stunning heritage, delicious food, whisky and wine, all at Port Arthur.
Why not make a weekend of it?
There is so much to see and do, allow a little more time to take advantage of the abundance of offerings the Tasman Region has to offer. There are amazing cultural heritage, nature, adventure and culinary experiences, stunning beaches, incredible bushwalks and accommodation to suit a wide variety of tastes and budgets.
You'll be supporting the local region and you will undoubtedly want to come back again and again.

Martini Rox: Swagga Boy breaks out with 'Larry Flynt Project'Written by Martini Rox | | email@example.com
Charismatic onstage with a cool demeanor off-stage is the way I would describe rapper Chiefalone. He is one of the four talented members of Toledo's own Swagga Boyz. Chiefalone, also referred to as Chieledo or Chief, has consistently performed with and without his musical brothers for years, gaining him regional and national exposure. Most notable are his high-energy, polished performances with fellow Swagga Boyz member Cuntry as they switch between playing featured artist and hype man on each other's sets. It was those performances that brought me to ask about a possible collaboration album between the two currently solo artists and according to Chief, in time this could happen.
Hard work and dedication have paid off for the artist who has remained in music industry conversation by consistently performing and releasing singles like his track, 'Change the Beat.' Recognized for his style and his music, Chief is a standout performer and is already enjoying critical acclaim of his current mixtape, "Larry Flynt Project," released on his birthday, July 14.
His mixtape is loosely based on and inspired by the movie "The People vs. Larry Flynt" and includes snippets from the film (as well as a few others) as introductions and highlights throughout the project. Features include area artists and producers Mally The Martian, Cris Siege, Lagik, MidWest Tone and female rapper Johnnie Mae, to name a few.
Creatively, it is going to be one of this year's best in terms of beats and content. Chief uses song subjects as his playground and on "Larry Flynt" he effortlessly bounces from the self affirmation track "I Am" to "Chie in Love" to his personal observation of his life in "Mirrors." A diversified flow and lyrical talent makes this 16 track (plus 2 Bonus tracks: "Change the Beat" and "Runnin'") mixtape worth a listen. "Larry Flynt" is available for download at www.datpiff.com.
Chief is currently anticipating his upcoming July 27 video shoot at the Glass Bowl at 5 p.m. for the album's single "March" and he and producer Lagik's going away party is July 28 at the Peacock. Chief will soon move to New Jersey to join fellow Swagga Boyz member Mally Speaks as he gets ready for the next chapter in his career.
Martini Rox: How would you describe your style of music?
Chiefalone: I would describe it as complex … and misunderstood.
Martini Rox: As an artist what do you feel you bring to the music industry?
Chiefalone: Of course originality, that's what everyone else would say. I kind of feel like it's more, I bring a different type of edge. I say that because I'm more of a misunderstood artist.
Martini Rox: What serves as your main inspiration?
Chiefalone: Business inspires me. Being an entrepreneur inspires me, my friends, my circle. Of course artists like Michael Jackson, Jay-Z, Quincy Jones, but mostly it has to do with my circle of friends, my surroundings. Because its like all those guys are good and they look at me, they give me the utmost respect so I got to keep that.
Martini Rox: As a Swagga Boyz member you were signed to Shawn Stockman's (Boyz II Men) Soul Chemistry label; having already dealt with the harsh realities of the industry while in a group, what did you take away from the experience?
Chiefalone: You can't take nothing for granted, because it'll get swept right from under your feet. You got to go for it. You got to take advantage not for granted. If you are that type of person that plays the leader role … you should play the leader role. Don't play in the back.
For more information, contact Chiefalone at email@example.com. Download music at www.soundcloud.com/chiefalone and check him out on Twitter: @Chieledo

From the Baronius Press descriptive page:
With a distinct style, it . . . has been highly praised for its freshness of approach, for its poetic language and for the ease with which it may be read. Its style has succeeded in giving meaning to passages which in earlier versions have been difficult to understand.
The great Protestant Bible scholar F. F. Bruce has written about the Ronald Knox version:
"[It] has the overwhelming advantage of being the work of a man who had an uncanny instinct for getting the right word or the right phrase in any given context. . . . Knox was a master of English style. . . . Never did a translation read less like a translation.
. . . a most readable edition of the English Bible.

Some pretty big things are happening at GoGrid. Today we announced the release of our Image Rights Management (IRM) service for GoGrid Partners, a very powerful technology that assists with the software and licensing management in the cloud, specifically within the GoGrid Exchange. As many of you may know, GoGrid Exchange is a catalogue of software server images and solutions from Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) that are available on-demand for those who use GoGrid cloud infrastructure. IRM adds several benefits for ISVs and, in turn, customers.
To better explain IRM technology and why it is so important, I sat down with Raja Srinivasan, VP of Cloud Computing at Zeus Technologies, and our very own Paul Lancaster, Manager of Cloud Ecosystems at GoGrid. They discuss how IRM is the solution to licensing software in the cloud and what the GoGrid Exchange means for partners and customers.
Raja and Paul highlight many of the benefits of the GoGrid Exchange as well as focus on our new IRM technology. They break them down into two main areas.

Tuesday, July 2, 2013
Most of you know I'm a news junkie. That's because A) I made my living in the news for years and B) It'd be embarrassing if everyone knew the world was ending except me.
So. The latest topic that caught my eye was an MSNBC article about people winding up in the ER trying to live out their bucket lists.
Let's look at a few:
An 80-year-old California woman, Laverne Everett, was tandem skydiving for the first time when she somehow slid from the instructor's harness. He grabbed her and held on for dear life while they rocketed to earth. She walked away with bruises and a great story. (The video is still up on YouTube.) An Alabama man realized his lifelong dream of bull-riding when he crawled aboard a 1,000-pound snorting behemoth. Both his ankles were crushed when the bull started bucking in the chute. No eight seconds there.A 60-something Missouri man bought a new motorcycle in Kentucky. He broke several bones when he crashed while riding it out of the parking lot.Now, I'm not trying to ridicule these people—far from it. Everyone has dreams, and they had the guts to go after theirs. But according to the article, we Baby Boomers (those of us 49 and older) are just getting out of hand. We're helicopter skiing and swimming with sharks and parasailing in the Alps. We're zip lining and rock climbing and Scuba diving.
Apparently lots of us are itching to cross off crazy adventures before taking what I call the Big Dirt Nap. And that's fine, for anyone who isn't me. I have a few dreams and unrealized adventures, certainly. It's just that mine don't involve multiple fractures, or eating parboiled centipedes in the shadow of Kilimanjaro.
I've lived out every dream I've ever had, with few exceptions. You could say this is because I am content to remain provincial and unenlightened, which is probably true. Or you could say I've been enjoying life for many years and there isn't a whole lot left I'm dying to do.
I'd like to learn how to paint, and speak Spanish. I'd like to eat Swiss chocolate in Switzerland, where knowing Spanish would do me absolutely no good. I'd like to swim with wild dolphins. That's about it. There's no-one I want to meet, no office I want to hold, no jewels or car or house I'd like to own.
(I used to think I'd like to have a backyard chicken coop, but we have raccoons and snakes in our woods and, unless we install combination locks and motion detectors, I think we know what would ultimately happen to those chickens. I also thought I should collect a few dozen columns in a book, so I did. Widdle thinks it's hilarious, but several publishing houses did not agree. The hard copy is tucked into an antique suitcase in the spare room, in case I ever find the energy and money to self-publish.)
Adventures aside, I've had an amazing life. I'm not rich but I have a cherished wedding band and a few antiques and oil paintings. I have a houseful of books and a few good friends and that about does it. Oh, and a husband who makes me laugh and a snorty little dog that sleeps on my feet in bed.
What more could a woman ask for? OK, I'll admit it—good hair. But I'm not holding my breath on that one.

The new pressed eyeshadow formula has a SeaNutritive Mineral Complex that gives the shadow a "creamy, silky smooth" texture with "seamless blendability" and "stay-true color." It's supposed to be long-wearing whether worn alone or with primer–you shouldn't see any creasing or fading. I've tested various combinations of shades from the duos and quads, and I've happily achieved ten hours of solid wear without a primer underneath. For a review of the packaging, please read my original review.

STARKVILLE, Miss.--As Mississippi State focuses on globalization as one of its strategic goals, the university is counting Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University in India among its international partners for research and development.
MSU and the prominent Indian university signed an official Memorandum of Understanding Wednesday [Dec. 5] to collaborate on research that will benefit both institutions and their respective constituencies.
Prior to the signing, MSU President Mark Keenum met with Indian Minister for Agriculture Kanna Lakshminrayana, Agriculture Commissioner K. Madhu Sudhan Rao, and ANGRAU Professor Aldas Janaiah, director of the university's School of Agribusiness Management. All three Indian delegates represent the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
During his visit with the Indian delegation, Keenum told the visitors of his "fond memories of my experiences in India" while serving as Under Secretary of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
"I visited with local farmers in their villages and with Indian university and agricultural leaders," Keenum said. "Those experiences left me eager for Mississippi State University to be more engaged globally and to get more involved with international partners like ANGRAU. The world faces the challenges of feeding and clothing a projected 2 billion more people over the next 50 years at a time when 1 billion of the world's current 7 billion inhabitants are malnourished. Working together, we can begin to address the obvious need for more food and fiber."
The agreement emphasizes various areas within agriculture, forestry and veterinary medicine which could provide mutual exchange opportunities for both students and faculty. Biofuels and biofeedstock research, aquaculture, innovative watershed projection, veterinary medicine, agricultural engineering and poultry science are all areas of interest to ANGRAU for mutual ongoing research programs.
MSU Provost Jerry Gilbert told the Indian delegation that he sees many opportunities in a Mississippi State partnership with the Indian land grant state university.
"Hearing your challenges presents us with great opportunities," said Gilbert. "We hope the relationship will grow and based on our prior experiences with Indian students here at MSU, we trust that will be so. We love our Indian students and they are some of the best students on this campus. We pledge to work closely with you as we mesh these challenges and opportunities."
Greg Bohach, vice president for agriculture, forestry and veterinary medicine, added, "Based on this new partnership and other market driven factors, we are looking into reinstating MSU's seed technology program as part of our cooperation with these new partners and as part of changing priorities as the university seeks to increase our participation in global initiatives to battle hunger and food insecurity."
Aldas Janaiah, director of the ANGRAU School of Agribusiness Management, said his institution has particular interest in partnering with MSU in the area of seed science and technology.
"MSU has been recognized as a global leader in these fields. The state of Mississippi and the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh have many commonalities. Rice production, a strong poultry industry presence, and many other similarities make this partnership one that should be very productive," Janaiah said.
The agreement identifies several additional areas of interest, including high performance computing involving plants and health, interactions with the Institute for Genomics, Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, and technology development and transfer. The Indian university also is interested in the possibility of using the Thad Cochran Research, Technology, and Economic Development Park as a model for a similar facility in India.
The relationship between MSU and ANGRAU began after a visit by David Shaw, MSU vice president for research and economic development, with the Indian Embassy in Washington, D.C. in September of this year. Minister of Education and Cultural Affairs Bala Bhaskar offered to assist in facilitating collaborations between MSU and institutions in India. Bhaskar's offer to help resulted in an invitation to a few ANGRAU professors to visit MSU. Their day touring campus and taking part in presentations and discussions helped the two universities identify the possibilities for research collaboration. A delegation of MSU administrators and scientists reciprocated with a recent visit to ANGRAU.
Officials from the India delegation said they hope to see the fruits of this collaboration and hope the partnership will especially yield benefits for small farm operations in India. Among the challenges facing farmers currently are changing patterns in the growing season and water and drainage management.
