Based on what? His statistics that shows extremely high variance? I bet he would be laughed out of any statistics department trying to extrapolate the linear model that he demonstrates. And let's not forget, that Navajo traveled a significantly longer distance from Africa than Hawaiian did, why does Navajo though have about 33 some consonants while Hawaiian only has 8?
Speaking as a statistics PhD, I can say that the correlation he finds between distance and phoneme diversity is pretty robust -- real data from complex systems is always going to be noisy. The model used could probably be improved (eg using a definition of distance that better reflected migration routes) but that would require making a lot more assumptions.
And let's not forget, that Navajo traveled a significantly longer distance from Africa than Hawaiian did, why does Navajo though have about 33 some consonants while Hawaiian only has 8?
Cherry-picking extreme cases does not prove that a trend does not exist. But, as argued in the paper, the Austronesian languages could be expected to see a very strong founder effect because of the island-hopping style of migration. This has been studied extensively and there is genetic and cultural evidence to suggest founder effects.
No, I am not arguing this, and I'm fairly confident that the assertion made by the paper is true, that Proto-World existed and it was spoken in Africa. However, we totally lack enough evidence to suggest that this is known... right now it's just something that we imagine is a really good hunch.
This is evidence that supports the hypothesis. It doesn't prove it, by any means, but it is consistent with the hypothesis.
This paper is the first application of the "founder effect" on phonology... but it requires that a founding population have missing phonemes when they found a new population. The likelihood of this occurring is only in rare phonemes, and even then super unlikely because even rare phonemes are reasonably common given the size of vocabularies.
There are better explanations for why phonemic diversity decreases and "founder effect" is a fairly bad theory. Hawaiian has 8 consonants while Maori has 10, but Hawaiian has heavy allophonic matching between "t" and "k", and "w" with "v", both of which suggest that there was a consonant shift in the Hawaiian/Maori proto-language that caused a phonemic collision in Hawaiian.
We don't need the claim that "Hawaiian when it left didn't bring over any of the words that had 'k' or 'wh' in them"...
You may well be right that it is not a strict founder effect in action here in the sense that there weren't some phonemes that go left off the boat, as it were. But it is quite possible that there was some other cultural force in effect as new colony established themselves causing the same bottle-necking that is seen with a strict founder effect.
I think linguists often get lost in the complexity of the individual systems they study (often to a very impressive level) and are unable to step back with a study like this and see a broader trend. Indeed, a very broad and quite weak trend like this probably doesn't really tell a linguist much if they are interested in relationships between languages of the past few thousand years because it has very little predictive power. But I see it as quite a nice use of statistical reasoning in that it ignores a lot of the details, simplifying the data down to a point where it is easy to work with but still contains some signal that can reasonably be interpreted.

Your argument for the founder effect works for words, but not necessarily for phonemes. In order for a phoneme to be dropped by founder effect, the phoneme would have to occur in none of the words that the founders brought over. The idea of a phoneme rare enough in a vocabulary large enough for use by a small colony seems unlikely...
Plus, the Scandanavian languages lost the interdental fricative, while the colony of Iceland kept the interdental fricative... poor standing for your "founder effect" notion...
Founder effects can occur with large groups, too. Think of two towns that speak the same language but have some noticeable variation between the two, for example, in one town they use the voiceless dental plosive, the other they use both the interdental fricative and the voiceless dental plosive. If these towns become isolated from each other evolving distinct languages, one will have fewer phonemes than the other. This is the founder effect.

The fibre-optic cable near Tiblisi, Georgia, supplies about 90% of Armenia's internet so the woman's unwitting sabotage had catastrophic consequences.

4. Don't Get Burnt (naturally):
Many people are concerned that popular sunscreens have additives which when absorbed through the skin, have long term health consequences.
I don't use creams often myself. Native cultures who deal with a LOT of sun like in the desert are not silly enough to run around in muscle shirts and bikinis. I follow their example and wear a hat or long sleeves. I'm interested, though, in what sunscreens YOU have found that work and are natural.
5. Green Clean Up!
Acting green means thinking about everyone long term, not just yourself. Take your rubbish home or throw it in covered garbage and recycle bins to prevent attracting yellow jackets, rodents, or other wildlife. Keep our nature beautiful.
If you used a grill to grill your vegetables then clean it before you leave and place trash in a covered bin so the animals and bugs don't get in.
6. Have a Backup Plan:
Some parks have covered buildings with picnic tables. We have sometimes had to picnic from an open-door car. If the worst happens, a picnic indoors is still fun.
7. Keep it simple …and casual:
You don't need much for a great picnic. A basket, a blanket and a loaf of bread is traditional. Sometimes I just throw a few snacky things into a bag and go for a walk and picnic when the time comes. Picnics need to stay in the laid-back category.
Pretend you are French. They know how to have fun! The word picnic comes from the French word piquenique. Originally at these piqueniques, everyone would bring food to the event in a way similar to what we call potlucks today and they were indoors. After the French Revolution, royal parks were opened to the public and "picnicking," a popular activity.
My Own Experiences of Picnics:
I remember my father coming home from work and singing "We're going on a picnic, picnic picnic…..we're going on a picnic!" At that point we would start getting ready to go; within half an hour we were all piled into the back of our pickup truck and off we went to a secluded wild spot near Edmonton where there were no other people, just our family. We would gather twigs and wood; our father would build a fire. After it was going; potatoes and onions were put straight into the fire without foil as we did not use it in those days. Yes, they came out black so we would cut into them and eat what was in the middle with butter and it was so yummy.
Have you been on any picnics lately? What do you put in your picnic basket?

Governor Rochas Okorocha did not make me Mayor of Orlu Zone – Professor Protus Nathan Uzorma [The Heartlander INTERVIEW]
Professor Protus Nathan Uzorma is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State and a political aspirant in the 2015 general election in Nigeria. In this interview, Protus corrects the widespread rumour that Governor Rochas Okorocha recently made him the Mayor of Orlu Zone.
You have been sighted for about eleven months now in several public events, giving lectures and keynote addresses. Don't you think these appearances are probably taking you away from the classroom to politics?
That looks indubitable. But lectures are lectures, in the curriculum classroom and on the podia. Whenever a professor is called upon to deliver a lecture, it is obviously considered an academic task although the subject matter may be political or not but the essence of it is to educate. You should know that topics of public lectures are given to relevant hands that can do adequate justice to them. So, in the classroom or out of it, the audience and aim remain the same. However, that does not mean that I am not a politician, and cannot leave the classroom at any time, especially if my departure will favour the greater number of mankind and have more lasting effects in our society than being in the classroom.
What is your opinion about the forthcoming general elections in the country, do you think power will shift hand again in 2015, especially in Imo State?
The 2015 general elections will be more dramatic than previous elections in the State, especially on the gubernatorial seat. Before, in the State, there was only one strong opposition party. But today, there more than one and each of the opposition parties are more rooted and experienced in the State politics than the present party in power. The gubernatorial election will be one of the most peaceful, freest and fairest elections ever had. Gubernatorial candidate's personality and connections will be just a factor that determines success. There are several other factors which some political analysts are gradually exposing. Some of them are the equity charter, the party flag and thicket bearer, the deputy gubernatorial candidate, the zones power-sharing formula which will be politicised, etc. The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has all it takes to take back the leadership of the State; power of incumbency is a dead factor in contemporary electoral success in the State.
You were a thorn in the flesh of the former State Governor, Chief Ikedi Ohakim, and later shielded your sword, so you have been to Governor Okorocha. When will you shield your sword on him or perhaps he still has some more years ahead?
You see, I never was a thorn in the flesh to any human being but an ardent detester of bad leadership, which does not mean personality hate as one Prince Stanley Okoroji erroneously alleged that I hate Governor Okorocha with passion. I don't hate him but I'm not comfortable and happy with some of his administrative styles and programmes. So it was with the former Governor Ohakim. I did not hate him. I simply detested some of his administrative skills and programmes at the beginning. But when he changed and started doing what a people's Governor should do, I became his admirer although people hardly forget about the past even if you change like the Bible urges that man changes from his evil ways and live, in politics, even if you change, the past historic tails you. I believe Okorocha might change tomorrow, and that will be for the good of the State. What seems funny is the way some beneficiaries of a government hate those of us that criticise an erring government. Our criticism is for the commongood of the State. Without our criticisms, and if every body is capping for the Governor, he would not know when he errs in leadership.
Just a few weeks ago, news of your appointment as the Mayor of Orlu Zone by Governor Okorocha went like wild-fire. Are you eyeing any political position from the Zone?
Let me clarify this issue once and for all. Rochas did not make me Mayor of Orlu Zone. If he tries, trust me, he wouldn't see me and I wouldn't take it. That is a complete lie, which intension and source are yet to be unravelled. There is the former Mayor- Ichie Mbanaso, there is the present- Hon Obodo. It was the youths of Orlu Zone of over 10,000 that gathered in Orlu same day Rochas was in his Local Government tour in Orlu LGA and disgusted with his leadership failure in the State especially towards them the youths, they decide to make me the Mayor of Orlu zone with the full assurance that there redemption is very much at my perceptions. Historically in developed polities as in Europe, Mayoral positions are conferred by the people. They say who will be their Lord. Government don't just rise in his office without due consultation of the people and declare somebody a Mayor or Lord over the people. I can't take any position in Okorocha's cabinet. I can't pick any appointment from Rochas. I am not interested in working with him because he is deceitful in his administration. Come to the question, if I'm eyeing any political appointment in the Orlu zone, I think I for now, I need to remain silent but as a great politician from the zone I am destined for a great political appointment in the State or Federation come 2015.
Shortly before the Yuletide, it was rumoured that peace was about to be brokered between you and Okorocha. Why did it not materialise?
As I told you before, I can't take any position in Okorocha's cabinet. I can't pick any appointment from Rochas. I am not interested in working with him because he is deceitful in his administration. Certainly, rumours may be true or false but they are evidences of possible facts. Many have threatened me, others have pleaded with me, while some could have either been sent or self-sent to convince me to join in the administration. The fact remains that I am not interested in working with Okorocha. Peace or no peace, we are not enemies, we are not quarrelling. He should simply change, be honest with Imolites and stop his panic measures approach in administration, which has led the State into inconsistent policies, programmes and many trials and errors. Human beings and their affairs are not laboratories where experiments are conducted with trial and error method. It is not obtainable in human management and leadership.

Last week, the Hazard Bulldogs hosted the Letcher Central Cougars in high school soccer action. The Bulldogs came up just shy (3-2) in a hard fought and physical match.
Letcher Central got on the board first with a goal at the 16 minute mark. The Cougars lost another goal due to an offside call, sending them to the locker room with the 1-0 lead.
The Cougars got a free kick early in the second half, but were turned away again as Hazard goalie Spencer Hansen made a diving save, keeping the game in reach. However, the Cougars would score on their next shot (2-0).
Hazard got on the board two minutes after the Letcher goal as Gary Kilburn was fouled in the box, and converted the penalty kick (2-1).
At the 77th minute, the Cougars pushed their margin to 3-1. But, Hazard quickly went to work to erase the goal. Again, it was a penalty kick after a hard foul in the box. This time Kevin Eversole completed the play.
The Bulldogs were unable to get the tying goal,and fell 3-2.
Hazard stats: Goals: Gary Kilburn 1 and Kevin Eversole 1.

Tax Incentive Bill Will Have to Wait
By Scott Wartman, The Kentucky Enquirer
A tax incentive touted by Northern Kentucky leaders and Gov. Steve Beshear as a way to generate jobs and revenue won't likely get through the General Assembly this year, legislators say. Some blamed personal politics while others blamed the state's lean budget for the apparent failure of the angel investment tax incentive this session. While proponents vow to lobby the Senate for an amendment or some way to get the incentive, many think they'll have to wait until next year for the tax incentive.

I was looking for a balanced set of flat wound strings for my MM Stingray. One of the sales staff at GC suggested EB 2810. He claimed he'd had good luck with them. The best thing about them is they don't have excessive volume on any one string. They just give a great overall lowdown smoothness. My strings get a wipe down before I put the guitar back in the case. That's all the maintenance. They go months on end with no loss of tone that I can tell. If you purchase these strings; I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
The Scale, or the length of the strings are purposefully omitted by Guitar Center. This is ridiculous! And it presents customers with probable needless waste of time and money in product returns, and needless waiting for reshipment of the correct product, if it even have it!

Photographer Luke Stephenson's key points of interest lie in the British lifestyle and psyche, elements he describes as being at the core of his work. But one of his most acclaimed projects, The Incomplete Dictionary of Show Birds, seems, at first glance, to be a far cry from such nation-centric influences. The series consists of bright and beautifully coloured portraits which detail individual exotic birds down to the smallest feather; wrens and wood pigeons (the UK's most common birds) these are not.
Yet it transpires that each of these perfectly posing creatures was in fact scouted in England, and played a vital role in what Stephenson uncovered to be a surprisingly popular British pastime, bird keeping. "It all started when I decided I wanted to take pictures of budgies," Stephenson explains. "I was influenced by the photography of prized pigeons, which is very formulaic, and I wanted to apply that to budgies so I contacted a breeder and went to his house somewhere in south London. I was very naïve and it didn't go exactly to plan but as a result I stumbled on this hobby of keeping and breeding birds which intrigued me so much I spent the next 3 years taking pictures of birds."
One of these birds, Australian Finch #2, recently featured in AnOther's short film for COS, in celebration of Frame at Frieze. Here, AnOther talks to Stephenson, whose recent side projects include the S/S13 Look Book for designer duo Agi & Sam, and unearth his favourite bird facts and dreams of photographing the Queen...
Where did you find the birds to photograph?
I was living in the north of England at the time and luckily they had a good bird club in my area and a great website with a breeders directory so I just contacted people and explained my idea; some people were happy to help, some flatly refused.
What in particular intrigues you about exotic birds?
I think they are really beautiful and fantastically colourful. I love the photos as you can see them really close up, which is something I'd never seen before.
Do you have a favourite bird fact?
Gypsies love green finches and if you breed one with a canary they make the best songbirds. Zebra finches have the nickname "angels with trumpets" as that what they sound like when they chirp.
"Gypsies love green finches and if you breed one with a canary they make the best songbirds"
If you were a bird, what species would you be?
I'd be a bird of prey that soars. Like an eagle or something like that.
What makes a good photograph?
That's a hard question and I don't think I know the answer but it needs to start with a solid idea.
What inspires your practice?
The little things in life.
What is your dream project?
To take a portrait of the Queen.
What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given?
Life's not a race.

Variety reports that Chinese censors have cut more than half of the scenes featuring Hong Kong actor Chow Yun-fat in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. The third installment of the pirate blockbuster will premiere in China on Tuesday.
China Film originally denied making any cuts, then refused to comment when Beijing News reported that scenes of excessive violence had been trimmed.
The second movie of the trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest had previously been banned in China for its depiction of cannibalism and ghosts.

Members of the United States Army Parachute Team Golden Knights, Gold Demonstration Team made a home run with fans Thursday at the Chicago White Sox, US Cellular Field with a surprise jump before the first pitch.
SSG Tom Melton advanced the show to assure everything was in order to have a flawless demo weekend. SSG Melton accompanied by Mr. Speros Batistaos, CEO of SSCA presented a baton flown and passed in midair by the Golden Knights to the Manager of the Chicago White Sox Head Coach Robin Ventura.
Later in the day SSG Melton and team mates presented the White Sox and Ms. Nichole Manning a historical lithograph of a 5 stack formation over Homestead, AFB which was taken this year at winter training.
SGT George Perez just returned from school and pulled ground along with CSM Royce Manis and SSG Shelby Bixler who just returned from school and pulled upper winds on the top of the stadium.
SSG Kevin Presgraves flew the Prisoner Of War (POW) flag right into center field before thousands of cheering fans. He took the microphone and headed over to the front of the stadium and narrated as the rest of the seven jumpers landed in centerfield with a dynamic demonstration.
One jumper trailed the famous White Sox logo flag and another jumped in the black and white Vote for Peavey flag as everyone shouted and clapped. It was a beautiful day with a magnificent performance by SFC JD Berentis and members of the Gold Team.
Though it was a steamy hot 100-degree day, fans didn't seem to mind at all. The thrill and excitement of the fans resonated throughout the stand. Following the team demonstration, the jumpers gathered their parachutes and gear and many fans hollered out to the team, Thank you for your service, job well done.

Media contact: Karen Parker, 386-758-0525
(Watch the YouTube video: http://youtu.be/49bZZduA0zQ.)
They're back! Gulf sturgeon have begun their annual migration back into the Suwannee River, according to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) officials.
Researchers from the U.S. Geological Survey recently reported that the fish have started to return to the north Florida river. However, with the higher water levels this spring, the fish don't seem to be jumping as frequently as in previous years. As the river levels drop, the jumping frequency could increase.
People have been injured in accidental collisions with the large, armored jumping sturgeon. However, for the 2013 boating season, there were no reports of boaters being injured by them.
"But, even one person getting hurt this year is one too many," said Maj. Andy Krause, FWC regional commander. "We want people to be aware the sturgeon are back in the Suwannee and that the risk of injury to boaters does exist."
FWC officers will be on water patrol during the summer months in a continued effort to educate boaters about these jumping fish. The FWC recommends going slow to reduce the risk of impact and to have more reaction time if a jumping sturgeon is encountered. All boaters are encouraged to wear their life jackets at all times while on the water.
These collisions aren't attacks. The fish aren't targeting boaters. They are simply doing what they have been doing for millions of years: jumping, although biologists are unsure why sturgeon jump.
Biologists estimate the annual population of sturgeon in the Suwannee River to be between 10,000-14,000 fish, averaging 40 pounds. However, a few exceed 170 pounds. They can leap more than 7 feet out of the water. To add to the seriousness of being hit by one, the fish have five rows of armor-like scutes.
Adult fish spend eight to nine months each year in the river, spawning in May, and then return to the Gulf during the coolest months to feed.
State and federal laws protect sturgeon, just like bald eagles, panthers and sea turtles. Gulf sturgeon cannot be harvested.
To report sturgeon collisions, call 888-404-FWCC (3922).

So, you receive a a replacement MacBook Air with a complimentary USB-to-ethernet adaptor so you don't have to use WiFi, which BTW completely undermines the advantage of having something as portable as an Air, and that's not an admission that it is flawed? If it's not flawed, why the adapter?
Apple reportedly investigating WiFi issues on new MacBook Air
WiFi issues on the new 802.11ac capable MacBook Air are reportedly being investigated by Apple as they try to "capture" affected devices. The 802.11ac WiFi is one of the headline features on the refreshed Air line, and some reports have suggested that a software issue with Mountain Lion could be at fault. However, according to 9to5Mac, Apple is at least aware of the issue and taking steps to find out what is going on:
According to a source at Apple, the company is working to independently identify what exactly is causing the new WiFi-related problems. According to this person, AppleCare and Apple Store Genius Bar employees have been instructed to "capture" affected MacBook Air units. These units will then be sent back to Apple for further testing so a solution could hopefully be achieved.
Additionally, alternate sources have backed this up by claiming they have been issued a replacement MacBook Air by their local Apple store, with a complimentary USB-to-ethernet adaptor so they don't have to use WiFi. It's by no means an admission that the new Air is flawed, but is reassuring that Apple is taking measures to find out what's going on. Any of you guys had similar issues addressed by Apple? We'd love to hear from you!

Apple reportedly investigating WiFi issues on new MacBook Air
I have an iPhone 4S, and for the past five days, it drops WiFi signal constantly. The iPhone 5 has been having this problem also. Now the new air? I never had this problem before with the 4S. There have been WiFi issues for a time, but the odd thing, it comes, and goes. Strange?

Hope they figure it out in the next month or so, AC is the reason I'm going air instead of pro.

Learn about Windows PowerShell
Summary: Use a Windows PowerShell function to find running scheduled tasks on your computer running Windows 8.
How can I find information about running scheduled tasks on my computer running Windows 8?
Use the Get-ScheduledTask function and pipe the resulting list to the Where-Object to identify a running state. Choose a couple of properties such as taskname and state. The following command illustrates this technique.
Get-ScheduledTask | select taskname, state | ? state -eq running
Hi guy !!!!
Which module should I import to run this command? Because i have not Get-ScheduledTask cmdlet in my indows 8 and server 2012 by default.....
@Christophe You would need to import the PowerShellPack Module.
Is there any way to see how long a task has been running? Or, using Get-ScheduledTaskInfo, to see the start/end times of a completed task?

Scene In Plattsburgh
Have you ever felt anonymous in Plattsburgh? If so, stop by Free Advice any Wednesday evening at The Champlain Wine Company; walk around our thriving downtown on a warm summer evening or get out to the Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning. Meet with friends and enjoy meaningful, fun conversation. Making an afternoon or evening out in downtown Plattsburgh can be just the way to renew and reconnect with old or new friends. City Hall Place, Durkee Street and Margaret Street certainly are buzzing with summer fun. Great restaurants, a renovated theatre, and unique shops make downtown Plattsburgh a city on the rise.
Even adults can benefit from a refresher course in "how to meet people 101." Plattsburgh is an interesting sized city - we can see people "out of context" and yet know there is some connection we cannot quite remember. A bit of FREE ADVICE - if "you know someone, but don't know from where", simply re-introduce yourself by saying, "good to see you, I'm….and I am at a bit of a loss for your name"…they will thank you and tell you who they are! And they'll appreciate the effort and sincere attempt at connecting.
JODY and JACK HELFGOTT were out recently enjoying downtown Plattsburgh. With kids at camp, they were celebrating a momentary empty nest at The Pepper! JODY is a friendly face from the Plattsburgh Public Library and she said the "hottest" things happening at PPL this summer are the summer reading program (never too late to bring your kids) and e-books…you can get them through your library card! JACK, owner of YIPES STRIPES, said business is booming for car wraps, (car window advertising for your business!), and tinted windows. Those are two "hot" pieces of advice that can make you smarter and better looking.

Gaza: Food distribution between skeleton houses
Monday, January 19, 2009
No bombs are falling over Gaza today and aid workers are now working hard to distribute food and medicine to the affected population living in the aftermath of 22 days of war. ACT International is operating two clinics with queues of patients and more than 15,000 displaced people are targeted for food distribution in the coming days. The distribution of dry canned food, water and medicine can now be done with significantly less risk, and the aid workers hope that the ceasefire will hold.
Patients queue
The Department of Service to Palestinian Refugees had one of its clinics bombed in an Israeli air strike last weekend. Two clinics remain, in Rafah and Daraj, and both are working at full capacity. The medical staff of the destroyed Shija'ia clinic has joined their colleagues in Daraj and is assisting with the efforts there. The expected visits of the patients and families are in huge numbers considering that the hospitals and tertiary care institutions are still coping with the injuries of the war.
Water from Coca Cola
ACT field staff worked till midnight Sunday by unloading 40,000 packages of nutritional biscuits for immediate use at the clinics. In coordination with the Coca Cola Company, that offset half of the cost, 100,000 liters of clean water from Jericho will be shipped to Gaza. The bottles will be distributed via the two clinics. Milk powder is also on the way. Ten tons has arrived in Gaza ready to be mixed with water.
Food during the war
Life is slowly returning to Gaza but the humanitarian needs remain high as people try to adjust to the new realities on the ground. ACT has succeeded to provide the Palestinians at the Gaza Strip with food medicines, also during the war. Last week, 23,000 liters of milk was distributed in Gaza, as well as an estimated 230,000 high-protein biscuits for children and lactating mothers. The distribution was carried out under very difficult circumstances by International Orthodox Christian Charities staff members. All materials sent with last week's shipments have been distributed by YMCA staff in the Gaza office and via the two hospitals and two schools.

I read that Jeremy Zawodny and many others consider Google to have a double standard. It is not the same when Google is the default search on a tiny percentage of computer and MS can make it the default on over 80% of computers. You can't compare the 2. Google is complaining about a company that has been declared a monopoly doing things that monopolies are not allowed to do. When you are a monopoly you are not allowed to do the same things others are. It is fair for Google to do what they are doing because they are not a monopoly. It is very unfair for a huge monopoly to do the same thing because they have already won. It is not fair for a company who has won the game to make sure the other players lose even worse.
All that said I think Google has nothing to worry about. It will be funny when everybody changes that box to Google or does not even use it. MS might increase their market share a little bit but people have it in their mind G is better. I remember when Google and Yahoo used the same index. People would tell me G was better. Search companies need to know most people don't care about search as much as the do the actual site. Until Yahoo and MSN learn that people want their search box to be on a clean non-cluttered page they will never beat Google. People go to MSN and Yahoo and say, "oh this is portal" and move on to a site that just does search. That is why everybody thinks of Google first when it comes to search. MS and Y will never beat then. I don't think MS or Google will ever make that change because they make too much money on that clutter.
Another reason is Google has made it into pop culture. That is almost impossible to beat. Have you ever seen a TV show say they need to yahoo something or MSN something. No they Google something. Some might say that Google is a monopoly. That is not true they are winning but they do not control over 80% of search or even 50% for that matter.

Not anymore shame than any other politics in area. Ross never truly wanted a vote anyway, he got that part of his wish just not the handover part.
Member of the EIB club
The most curious thing I heard was weatherford claimed him and marino talked about autism and not really about vote lol.
I would like to see public poll but the rebates were not part of the vote and may have been the bigger hold up who knows.
I was willing to give Weatherford a chance to explain his position, but his defense of his inaction is very lacking.
"I never promised".... I am sure he conveyed to Ross and Dee that he would "Do what he could"... or "Do his best" to get the bill voted upon. I doubt that Ross made him pinky promise that the bill would be voted upon.
"Other bills never came up for vote as well"....blah blah blah
He had the podium to give a true explanation of the situation. His lack of detail is very revealing to me.
nice of Will to get Braman's nuts out of his mouth long enough to speak
The feedback from Miami Dade was negative?! Well if that was the case you should have brought it up on the floor if you were so sure it wouldn't be voted on favorably. This is an idiotic spin of an explanation and based solely on YOUR opinion
I Love JESUS CHRIST
To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world
And he seems to think this bill forces taxpayers to pay for renovations, but this bill only asks them to vote on the issue.
I trust neither side and dont care it can be brought up again. Ross was the one who decided a few months before the NFl awards a superbowl to bring forth the bill, when he knew he needed to renovate since our last superbowl. Neither is probably beacon of honesty.

Simple Steps to Getting a Legal Separation Agreement in Alberta
…the Friendly and Affordable Way
We draft legal separation agreements for couples who are, for the most part, in agreement. We are not lawyers, we do not give legal advice, nor do we mediate complex issues. Our goal is to help you:
- obtain a low-cost, friendly, legal separation agreement;
- reduce the burden of usual legal practices that are adversarial, complicated and costly; and
- still provide you with the benefit of receiving legal advice from your lawyer.
If you hire us to assist you with a legal separation agreement here are the general procedures we typically follow (which can be adjusted to fit your specific situation):
- We interview you by telephone. You advise as to what you and your spouse have generally agreed to regarding all matters concerning property, assets, debts, children (custody, access and support) and spousal support.
- We book an appointment with you (and hopefully your spouse). Most initial appointments last 2 to 2.5 hours.
- We will email you a list of what documentation to bring to the appointment.
- We create the first draft of your legal separation agreement before you and your spouse arrive at the first appointment.
- During the first appointment we go through the agreement from beginning to end and edit it.
- You leave the meeting with a fully drafted and edited legal separation agreement.
- We always recommend that you review it again once you get it home to ensure nothing was missed during the appointment.
- You advise as to further changes, if any.
- We then arrange for you and your spouse to review and sign the legal separation agreement with your lawyers (we have a list of lawyers we refer or you can find your own lawyer).
- If upon the advice of your lawyers you wish to make further changes, we make them at no extra cost to you. However, it may mean an additional trip to your lawyer(s).
- Lawyer fees are in addition to our drafting fees. The goal is to help the two of you minimize the back and forth between lawyers and minimize your legal fees.
- If applicable, the land transfer(s) and a divorce application are coordinated at the same time.
We can help with your Legal Separation Agreement if:
- The parties reside in Alberta or the parties were living in Alberta at the time of separation (and the property is predominately situated in Alberta);
- The parties are cooperative and willing to work together in the drafting of a legal separation agreement;
- There are no trust issues and the parties are willing to provide full disclosure;
- The parties will be taking the legal separation agreement to their lawyers for review, advice and signing;
- There are no complex issues; for example, those involving disclosure, trusts, exemptions, and business valuation.
Free Consultation 1-800-320-2477 (Calgary: 403-229-2774)
We have processed more than 5000 uncontested divorces and legal separation agreements. Every time we draft a legal separation agreement it is reviewed by two different lawyers. As we have drafted more than 1000 legal separation agreements, this means our work has been reviewed more than 2000 times by different lawyers. We've learned what lawyers like and don't like and from time to time lawyers will provide new wording to different sections of the agreement which ensures that our templates remain current and that we have many templates to access paragraphs that relate to unique situations. Though we cannot give legal advice, we can share with you our substantial experience.
We can help you reduce the amount of time you spend with a lawyer by as much as 90%. In situations where you must consult with a lawyer, we ensure that you maximize the quality of your time and investment with your lawyer by helping you summarize the facts surrounding your situation for quick and easy review.
Uncontested Separation Agreement
- No Children: $695 + gst (+ lawyer advice/signing fees)
- With Children: $895 + gst (+ lawyer advice/signing fees)
NOTE: if there is spousal support, add $100 to our fee.
Land Transfer
- $195 + plus land title fees which vary, typically between $125 and $150, depending on value of property + gst
*Note: upon review of your case by way of telephone interview, if we determine the drafting of your agreement might take substantially more work than the average file, we will inform you in advance of booking your appointment that we will assess additional fees, usually ranging $100 to $200 (ie. You have a 10-page parenting plan that you want incorporated; you have 14 rental properties, all with mortgages, etc.).

To the Editor:
The John Hunt Morgan Heritage Trail "Last Night and the Last Day" Committee would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to those who made this July 27 and 28 weekend a wonderful success.
Many people contributed their time, funds and talents to bring to life this historic time in our local history. Special thanks to the Bergholz Community Foundation, Ruritan and Fire Dept. and Springfield Twp. Trustees for helping us invite people into their town to relive Morgan's Raid. Postmaster T.J. Balint not only helped plan and organize this event, he catered a meal for almost 300 people. Thanks to The Rawson's Bluegrass and Awesome Possum for playing while Bill and Laura Nordan, aka John and Mattie Morgan, taught us to dance the Virginia Reel. What a blast! We appreciate Bill and Laura coming from Lexington, KY, to make our Morgan's Raid weekend come to life; Morgan descendant Sarah Caldwell, thanks for helping us commemorate Morgan's Cousin Keziah's part in the raid, and to Mary Ann Arvin who came from Kentucky to follow the trail. MaryAnn's Great Grandfather, James William Bonny, 7th Kentucky Cavalry, surrendered with Morgan's Raiders at West Point.
A special thanks to the Mount Zion Church Ladies for the cookie table and picking up our pieces, we can always count on you and the Ross Twp. Trustees to support our causes. A special thank you goes to Jefferson County Commissioner Dr. Thomas Graham, Salem Twp. Trustee Terry Bell and Charlie Green from the JCHS for sharing your talents and knowledge; Local Historian and former Gettysburg Ranger Jeff Evans; Roger Mickers from the Ohio Historical Society Sesquicentennial Committee; and Custer Memorial Association. Thank you to Bobby Jo Wells and her family, Cass Hutchison, Union Cemetery, Two Ridge Presbyterian Church, Riley's Church, 1860's Ladies, Sons of the Confederate Soldiers at West Grove Cemetery Vigil and the Wellsville River Museum for making this event memorable. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot at all of these places.
Thanks to Bob and Polly Givens for offering their cabin on Yellow Creek to our guests for the weekend, they loved it. We thank Ohio Historical Society Sesquicentennial Comm. Member and Author of Morgan's Great Raid, David Mowery, for being in charge of the OHS JHM Heritage Trail signs and Scott Fabian and the Jefferson County Engineers Office for installing them. Thank You to all of you who bought our reprinted fundraiser and promotional book, The Last Night and The Last Day, we could not hold these events without your support; the ESC at New Philadelphia for printing the book and our JHM Drive-It-Anytime Brochure, M & M Hardware, Nelson's and Fort Steuben for selling it for us, and Dr. Keith Burgett and Wellsville Museum for letting us use their books to copy. Thanks also to Kenco and Carryout Express for their donations.
As always we want to express special appreciation to the local newspapers, Ester McCoy at Steubenville Herald Star and Leigh Ann Rutledge at Carrollton Free Press Standard, we could not host these events without your informative coverage.

The University of Cincinnati will cancel all classes on the Uptown and Medical campuses at 11:00 a.m. today including all classes in session at that time. Offices on these campuses also will close at 11:00 a.m. More Information
Faculty D&I Research Grants
The Faculty Diversity and Inclusion (FDI) grants are meant to pilot research that will examine barriers unique to the University of Cincinnati to creating an environment in which all members are valued for their unique backgrounds, perspectives, and contributions that both reflect and advance the communities we serve. Identfying barriers are a solid first step in finding meaningful and lasting solutions. Research should be designed to identify structural inequities that have disproportionately affected the performance and advancement of underrepresented populations and provide a set of recommendations to enhance the university's effectiveness in building a diverse and inclusive culture.
Faculty at the University of Cincinnati (including faculty at UC's affiliates) who have at least a 50% FTE appointment are eligible. FDI awardees must be willing to serve on at least one FDI review committee for a period of two years following the year of the award.
Proposals will be evaluated primarily based on the scholarly and creative merit of the proposed activities, innovation, and the capabilities of the principal investigator. Secondary criteria for consideration include:
- Activities aimed at interpreting and enhancing UC's environment relative to diversity and inclusion, cultural competence/cultural intelligence, change management, and organizational effectiveness.
- Activities that capture innovative practices to improve organizational culture specific to academia.
Awards are limited to $8,000 in research support or summer stipend support if the research is performed during summer recess.
Note: Incomplete proposals or proposals that do not meet the submission guidelines will not be reviewed or considered for funding.
- Any publications resulting from this research effort should acknowledge FDI support.
- Funding is available for projects for one year. Extensions may be granted if appropriately justified in writing to the Associate Provost for Special Initiatives or the Chief Diversity Officer.
- Allowable costs will typically be those associated with successful completion of a research or scholarly project, and may include equipment, supplies, research assistant salaries or services. The FDI grants do not fund faculty salary support for the academic year. Travel that is essential to successful completion of the project is permitted only. Publication costs (e.g., charges associated with reproduction of materials or obtaining copyrights) are allowable.
- Proposal is not to exceed three pages.
Thursday, May 1, 2014 by 5:00 p.m.
Email email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com with questions.
"The FDI grant will deepen the conversation of diversity and inclusion at UC by accessing our greatest asset, the UC faculty. Together, we will achieve inclusive excellence."
Beverly Davenport, PhD
Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs & Provost
"The key to diversity is as much about identifying the barriers upon which meaningful solutions can be built as it is about emotional engagement. These grants are a step in the right direction to finding our barriers and our solutions."
William S. Ball, MD
Vice President for Research

From the dog's mouth
Recently, I had the honor of speaking with Francisco Garcia of the Texas Veterinary Medical Association as the featured guest on the TexVetPets podcast series. We spoke at length about how pet health insurance works from the point of view of both pet owners and veterinarians. Having the opportunity to work with one of the […] [Read More]
Naughty nibbling
Puppies and kittens are curious by nature. Both use their senses to discover their surroundings. Just like babies they go through an oral phase in which everything they find goes into their mouths. Because they do not have hands, their mouths do all the exploring…is it hard or soft, is it heavy or light, what […] [Read More]
Breeder beware
There is no doubt that we are a nation in love with our pets. According to the 2009/2010 National Pet Owners Survey, 62% of U.S. households own a pet, meaning 71.4 million homes are looking after a four-legged member of the family. On top of that, an estimated $45.4 billion will be spent by the […] [Read More]

How much that doggie in the window really is
When you begin to think about getting a pet, the biggest concern for most prospective owners is the cost.

When everyone is still looking to cut back, often times our […] [Read More]

This amazing Bel Air has won any national first place awards including a preservation award. The extensive 7 year restoration created one of the best 1957 Chevrolets on the planet. All genuine GM NOS parts were used in the over $200,000 restoration and it is an incredible example. The engine is the 283ci fuel-injected V8 with a 3-speed manual transmission. It runs, drives and shifts like new and will not disappoint. It features power windows, AM radio, power seat, continental kit, dual antennas, fender skirts, wide whitewall tires, spinner hubcaps and a black vinyl convertible top. It has just 518 miles since the restoration and looks like it did the day it left the factory. It comes with an owner's manual and fuel injection manual. This is a rare opportunity to own one of the finest examples available.

In 1990 to 1995, the homicide rate for children aged 1 to 14 in the United States was five times the rate in other industrialized countries (CDC, 1997). The rate of suicide was twice as high for the United States. Although the overall death rate for children decreased substantially during 1950 to 1993, homicide rates tripled and suicide rates quadrupled. More recently, child deaths due to homicide have been declining (NCHS, 2001c). Firearms are the major cause of homicide deaths among children in the United States. Gunshot wounds account for 5 percent of pediatric injuries seen in emergency departments and produce the highest death rate due to injury (NPTR, 2001).5
In 1999, homicide was the fourth leading cause of death for children aged 1 to 4 years and was also the fourth leading cause for 5- to 9-year-olds, who had the lowest rate among children. Homicide mortality was nearly threefold higher (2.5 deaths per 100,000, or 376 deaths) for children aged 1 to 4 years than for the 5 to 9 age group (0.9 per 100,000, or 186 deaths). As discussed below, homicide mortality rates vary not only by age but by sex and other characteristics.
Although young children are less likely to be victims of violence than are adolescents, when they are victims, parents and other caretakers are more likely than acquaintances and strangers to have inflicted the abuse, especially for children aged 1 to 4. Within the category of parents and other caretakers, analyses of data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation indicate that parents accounted for 60 percent of the abuse reported to the police, and stepparents and boyfriends or girlfriends of parents accounted for 19 percent (Finkelhor and Ormrod, 2001). As discussed in Chapter 8, such abusive situations present ethical and legal problems related to normal parental responsibilities for decisions about children's medical care.
The age groups 10 to 14 and 15 to 19 include the adolescent years. Adolescents can, however, be categorized differently based on social, biological, or developmental criteria. For example, those age 18 and older are legally adults. In most states, they can obtain a driver's license at age 16. Still, pediatricians may continue to care for patients with complex chronic conditions even after they have entered early adulthood.

Whether he wants it or not, Johnny Manziel is being offered lots of advice. And some of it comes from guys who were star NFL quarterbacks.
The latest to check in is Hall of Famer Warren Moon. His big issue with the Cleveland Browns rookie is how public it is whenever Johnny Football is out enjoying himself.
"All guys are going to go out and have a good time," Moon said on SiriusXM NFL Radio, as transcribed by Pro Football Talk. "Quarterbacks, all different positions. But you don't want to make it as public. You want to keep it more of a low profile when you are out having a good time. He tends to make it more of a high-profile thing when he's out, so that just opens up all this speculation and criticism by everybody out here."
Moon doesn't begrudge Manziel his fun. Hey, Moon said, he's made his own trips to Las Vegas. Of course, when Moon was playing QB, whatever he did, it was back in the days before Twitter and Instagram.
"So he needs to be more low-key about the things he does, and as long as he's putting in the work off the field and on the field to become the best quarterback he can be, I have no problem with what he's doing, except for the fact that he needs to keep more of a low profile," Moon said.
Warren Moon to Johnny Manziel: Keep a lower profile
Whether he wants it or not, Johnny Manziel is being offered lots of advice. And some of it comes from guys who were star NFL quarterbacks.
