Below is the poem entitled Is God White or Black which was written by poet
Adeite. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Adeleke Adeite
If you must abhor me,
do hate me for real reasons,
not for my frail skin colour,
I am the Sun of all seasons.
If you must love me,
please love me for no reason,
not for the sparkles of my soil,
I crave a palace not a prison.
Is God White or Black?
O He made the Sun so bright
and moonlight a dusky sack;
same sky swaps day for night.
Is God a pios politician?
Cancer regards not your race,
Fall cares not about red roses,
AIDS spares not a flowery face.
We will burry you in the sky,
just because you are mr White
and before daylight distils
your skin colour will take flight.

Understanding the kaleidoscope of unlicensed spectrum
More InfoLess Info
These are exciting times for those trying to comprehend the whirlwind of expansion coming to unlicensed spectrum bands. The simple shared access model employed today in the unlicensed Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) bands will not be a sufficient model when new targeted licensed bands start sharing their bandwidth. Not all bands can be treated equally; at least not from a policy perspective. A wide range of policies and restrictions will be forthcoming which will impact how, where, and when these new shared spectrum bands can be used and by whom. This white paper offers a brief overview of the situation and speculates on where it is likely headed.

Santa Cruz Island and Daphne Major
It is hard to remember the program by heart. There are so many activities that it can be confusing, and we need to check the written sheet to make sure that indeed, all what we thought that was going to happen, is actually happening. But there are also unexpected events, surprises, never promised and yet, they occur. There were whales, tropical whales (or Bryde's) and a wedding during sunset and stars drawing wonderful constellations that made us dream of remote times when we still believed in Pegasus, a horse with wings, and a prince Perseus rescuing Andromeda from a sea monster, Cetus the whale.
We woke up at the northwestern corner of Santa Cruz, to discover that the scenery is again different from the day before, and the adventures new and fresh. There were land iguanas, and marine invertebrates of all kinds of colors on the walls of Guy Fawkes when we snorkeled. The outline of Isabela, to the west, was perfectly clear. Daphne major, the islet where Peter and Rosemary Grant have done research on Darwin's finches, was at its best.
And then, the wedding. Captain John Zurita married two young people, at sea, with us and Galapagos as witnesses of their affection and commitment. Wishing a long life to their love!

There's no time limit and no painkillers. You arsenil for this mission is a Nail gun and Baseball bat. There are 3 places that the boxes of nails spawn. - When you start 3 feet in front of you. - In a back room next to gas cans. - When you start head left up the stairs, and to the end of the ally. You begin in a room with a big hole in the ceiling were the hunters fall out of. After you clear all the hunters in first level more come down through the hole, every level there's more and more hunters. Tips* - Aim at the head to conserve your ammo - Shoot the propane tanks when hunters are nearby. *Additional strategy sent in by Zee. - He has found a ' Sweet Spot ' in this level it's in the room to your right as soon as you start,"In the corner of the two walls with door openings in them and a single box turned diagonal there is a small area of shadow. This is the center room. Standing in here, and behind the box, you are able to shoot as many Hoods as come running". Thank you for that Zee. ===================================================== B R A W L G A M E ===================================================== Brawl Game is unlocked after you complete the following missions with a 3 star ranking. -Grounds For Assault -Strapped For Cash -View Of Innocence -Drunk Driving -Graveyard Shift Brawl Game, the objective of this mini-game is to see how long you could survive in the basketball court of the Born Again level. There's 3 gangs The Hoods, Innocentz, and the Skinz. They will fight each other as well as you but occasionly they will double team you. There is a death counter at the top of the screen.The highest I've managed to get was 33. This mini-game is probally one of the toughest there are no painkillers until you achieve at least 10 kills, it's just hand-to-hand combat. So, as soon as you begin run straight ahead and pick up the glass shard to help you inflict a little more damage, after that, run around until the gangs begin to clash, there will always be one guy on your tail, but sometimes there will be 2 guys fighting you, when that happens RUN. After you kill one gang member another will respawn at the top and jump down and start to fight. Always try for the for the strong attack (square), and also the grapple (X+square) to help you do more damage. Tips* - You can perform 1 execution wiht the glass shard. - A glass shard re-spawns every 8 kills. - Painkillers spawn every 10 kills. (Thanks to Kosta666) ===================================================== M O N K E Y S E E M O N K E Y D I E ===================================================== Monkey See Monkey Die becomes unlocked after you complete the following with a 3 star ranking -Mouth Of Madness -Doing Time -Kill The Rabbit -Divided They Fall -Press Coverage Monkey See Monkey Die, this is probably the toughest bonus mission, just imagine it 35 crazy looking monkeys running around with Sawn-off Shotguns. They are actually hunters dressed in monkey suits making monkey noises, but when you shoot one,the human groans come out. The objective of this bonus mission is to work your way out of the zoo alive. There are painkillers all around, but you will need them because these monkeys are tough. There are a few weapons in this level, Machete, Sawn Off Shotgun, and the Shotgun but I suggest staying with the Sawn-off shotgun until you are able to swap it out with the Shotgun. You begin with the Sawn-off shotgun, as soon as you begin 3 monkeys rush down, duck behind the planter and take out the monkey up on the ledge first, and then the other 2 that are hiding behind the planter. Pick up they're ammo and continue up, there's a monkey to your right you could either: rush him and maybe take a shot, or run to the crate in the corner(now the monkey is on your left)and shoot him. Once you kill him get his ammo and go towards the locker door, but right before the locker door there's a burning trashcan stand next to that and you should see a monkeys cap his ass. Then Proceed and bust the lock off the door, enter the room this is where the first PAINKILLERS is but before you get this strafe against the wall toward the window, you should hear a gun shot and then the window shatter. Pop out and kill the 2 monkeys that are behind the planters. Take the painkillers if you need it at this point. *Remember there's no time limit you can come back later. After this 2 machete weilding monkeys should come charging the room blast them away. Continue foward and make a left duck behind the planter and take out the monkey, and continue around the corner, run to the next crate and theres a monkey on the other side shoot him and continue on.*Remember to be picking up the ammo. At this point this first building should be done exit through the sharks mouth. When you exit the sharks mouth there's PAINKILLERS to the left only pick them up if your below half health. Go foward and another 2 monkeys with machetes should be charging you quickly shoot them, and hurry to the planter on the left duck behind it take out the monkey just on the other side, stay there and shoot the monkey by the soda machine, head to the planter next to the soda machine there should be another monkey ahead so be careful. Continue foward there's a monkey to your left shoot him through the shrubs, go up the board and make a left but to your right there is some painkillers, continue foward a monkey should run around the corner and try to cut you, blast his head off. Make a right and run up on the monkey thats behind the planter and shoot him. Follow the path and to the left through the bushes should be another monkey shoot him through the bushes. Continue towards the blue buildind there's 2 monkeys guarding the entrance run up to the monkey thats by the triangle planter shoot him, duck behind the planter and pop his buddy. Before you enter the blue building find the shotgun shells next to the dumpster and the PAINKILLERS next to the door. Go to the door step back a few feet and to the left, shoot the lock off a monkey will jump out with a machete shoot him in the head. Go to the dome and pick the the dead hunters Shotgun. Exit the blue building and take cover at the triangle planter shoot the monkey that you see in front of you, after that run to the planter that he was at this point look through the bushes to see another monkey kill him. There's 2 monkeys in the cage that are expecting you from the direction of the blue building. So go around to where you found the PAINKILLERS(look at 2nd paragraph above this one) you should now be at the side of the monkey cage shoot the monkey thats on the ground and there's another up on the big platform. After you enter the cage go towards the big platform at this point some more monkeys should come to attack you with machetes. *Having fun yet? it's almost over. Now exit through the open gate, now get this 4 monkey-men will run at you, they all have machetes kill them one by one. Now run around till you get to the edge of the wall there are 2 things you do here. Strafe along the wall and peek out 2-3 times and shoot him or Run around to the other side of the boxes and cap him. Now enter the building, you may remember this building from 'Strapped For Cash' were Cash rescues one of his family members. As you enter the building strafe left and be adjacent with boards against the walls the a monkey in between them, and then find the PAINKILLERS in this room. Now slowly work your way to the exit a monkey will pop out, shoot him and continue along there's another door way in which another monkey-man pops out shoot him and your home free, just bust the pad-lock off the next door and your done. Tips* -Remember where there are painkillers, you can always come back later -Always try for a head shot to conserve ammo -There's no time limit so take your time ===================================================== T I M E 2 D I E ===================================================== Time 2 Die is the last of the mini-games you unlock after completing the following with a 3 star ranking. -Wrong Side Of The Tracks -Trained To Kill -Border Control -Key Personnel -Deliverance The objective of this mini-game is to eliminate the Hoods. The tables have turned your are now the hunter and they are the hunted. There's a 10 minute timer to eliminate all 11 Hoods. They will hide in the shadows and most of the time run away when they see you unless there is multiple Hoods nearby. The method I will explain to you is the easiest and most fun, I will explain 3 places The Rooftops: 4 Hoods, The Warehouse: 3 Hoods, Alleys: 4 Hoods. Every time you kill at the Hoods from the specified locations a message will appear. Example: after you kill 3 Hoods in the Warehouse a message will appear telling you that ALL HOODS ARE CLEARED FROM THE WAREHOUSE. ROOFTOPS: 4 Hoods You will start here because the Hood with the crowbar is up here, and you need the crowbar to get into the ware house, and once your in the warehouse you get the CHAINSAW. You start right next to the stairs that lead up to the rooftops, so go up the stairs and break the glass, when you do this the Hood inside goes crazy, you have 2 choices beat the crap out of him or stand in the shadows and lure him back and execute him. Another Hood will enter the room after you execute the first one. Either do Choice 1 or Choice 2. When you come across the Hunter on the Rooftops with the crowbar take it. To jump from rooftop to rooftop just sprint from one to the other. There's PAINKILLERS behind the billboards on the last rooftop. Once you get the message that you have defeated all the Hoods on the rooftops(and have the crowbar). We can go to the Warehouse. WAREHOUSE: 3 Hoods Come here after you get the crowbar from the Hood on the rooftop. Find the locked door to the warehouse. Once you enter turn left and find the CHAINSAW and just mow down the 3 Hoods that are inside. There are 3 PAINKILLERS in seperate corners of the warehouse. Now go to the Alleys. ALLEYS: 4 Hoods This should be easy now since you have the Chainsaw run around Alleys and lure out the 4 Hoods cut them up real good. After you kill all The Hoods the timer stops and Starkweather shows you were the exit is. Find the exit and mission passed. Tips* - When you get the Chainsaw you don't have to be quite, make as much noise as you want..... you have a Chainsaw! ===================================================== C O D E S ===================================================== Enter all these codes at the title screen.

After finishing the National League portion of their 32-game tour of the East at 8-6, the Washington Nationals will head to Boston to continue their battle through the most competitive division in the Major Leagues: the American League East.
The first-place Nationals will play the last-place Boston Red Sox this weekend, but that doesn't mean this will be a breezy series for the Nats. At one game above .500, the Red Sox are just three games away from taking first place in their division. No other division is working with that tight of a margin between its teams. So if you are the Red Sox, truly every game counts and you aren't going to be eager to let the Nationals keep you in the basement.
The Nationals have played just six games against the Red Sox (in 2006 and 2009), and have never won a game at Fenway Park. The Nats sole win against the Sox came at the hands of Jordan Zimmermann, who will pitch against Jon Lester on Sunday. Zimmermann allowed just one earned run in the Nats' 9-3 victory.
Super stats
Based on their stats, the Red Sox would probably be higher in the standings if they had not allowed their rivals to get a head start at the beginning of the season. The Sox were just 4-10 through the start of the year, but have since boosted their record up to 25-18 in games played since April 23.
Their remarkable hitting numbers have kept them competitive despite lackluster pitching. The Sox have scored the third most runs in baseball (297, 5.2 per game), in keeping with their third place .272 team batting average. They have smacked 146 doubles - the most by a huge margin (the Kansas City Royals are in second place, 30 doubles behind them). The Sox are in sixth place for home runs (69), leading to a .452 slugging percentage, the second-highest in the majors.
In comparison, the Nationals have scored 88 less runs, averaging 3.8 per game. As a team they are batting .241, slugging .390, and have hit only 52 homers.
On a less exciting note for the Red Sox, their team ERA is 4.50 – only three teams have an ERA that is higher. The Sox pitching staff has given their opponents the gifts of a .262 batting average (tied for sixth highest) and 64 home runs (tied for seventh most).
The Red Sox's numbers are the foil to the Nationals': the Sox have hitting, the Nats have pitching. This series will show which element of baseball will reign supreme. Will it be bats or arms that wins these ball games?
A note
I think it must be frustrating to be the Red Sox – to be doing everything right at the plate with very little room for improvement, yet to have still only won half the games they've played and be last in their division. The Nationals will have to be careful not to let the Red Sox take out any of that frustration on them this weekend. However, with the top of the Nationals pitching rotation set to face the Sox, the odds seem to be in favor of the Nats, assuming their starters can come through with the bat-debilitating stuff we have seen from them this year.
Player profiles
Daisuke Matsuzaka is slated to make his first start of the year on Saturday, the day before the one year anniversary of his Tommy John surgery. Three weeks ago Daisuke experienced some discomfort in his arm and struggled with his mechanics, putting his comeback date into question. However, after being shut down for a week Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine is confident he will be ready on Saturday. Daisuke claims a 4.25 career ERA and a 1.40 WHIP.
Second baseman Dustin Pedroia has yet to get a hit in 11 at-bats since he returned from a muscle tear in his thumb that has forced him to wear a brace when he plays. In that time frame, Pedroia has struck out four times and walked twice, and has collected two RBIs in sacrifice situations. He has a .280 batting average on the year.
And you can't forget Big Papi. All-Star David Ortiz leads the Red Sox in every offensive category. Although he has been going through a slight slump lately, batting just .182 in his last 22 at-bats, no one seems worried about the slugger and he remains just as dangerous as ever.
Who's hot?
David Ortiz (DH) .304 AVG, .570 SLG, 13 HR, 37 RBI
Will Middlebrooks (3B) .312 AVG, .541 SLG, 6 HR, 22 RBI (109 ABs)
Scott Atchison (RP) 1.42 ERA, 26 SO, .217 AVG (31.2 IP)
Who's not?
Darnell McDonald (LF) .197 AVG, .393 SLG, 2 HR (61 ABs)
Alfredo Aceves (CL) 5.02 ERA, 25 H, 16 ER, 3 HR, 14/17 SV/SVO
Probable starters
Stephen Strasburg (6-1, 2.35 ERA) vs. Felix Doubront (6-2, 3.75 ERA)
Gio Gonzalez (7-2, 2.31 ERA) vs. Daisuke Matsuzaka (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
Jordan Zimmermann (3-5, 2.82 ERA) vs. Jon Lester (3-4, 4.64 ERA)

Gear Review
First rule of flat club...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
...do not talk about Flats. This is one of those products that I hesitate to give a review on, or even think about, out of a total sense of fear that acknowledging it's use in my wheels might result in an instant flat. That being said - so far, so good in my tubulars. I had two very distinct experiences in installing this sealant though - it absolutely would not move through a set of Topeak extenders that I was trying to use (the extenders eventually COMPLETELY fell apart as a result of having the liquid in them) - a total complete mess. But, I switched to a set of Conti extenders, and the stuff just squirted right in, no problem, as advertised. Good stuff - but I hope I never find out !
Update - product didn't seal on a pinch flat at a recent CX race and I ended up with a DNF. Booooooo... I'm definitely less confident in this product now.

Description of the larvae of two species of Hemipeplus Latreille (Coleoptera: Mycteridae)
The key description and illustrations of mouthparts, ocelli, and terminal abdominal segments by Bovinq & Craighead (1931) have been the only information on the larval stages of the genus Hemipeplus Latreille, except for
The key description and illustrations of mouthparts, ocelli, and terminal abdominal segments by Bovinq & Craighead (1931) have been the only information on the larval stages of the genus Hemipeplus Latreille, except for the observation by van Emden (1942) that individuals of the genus would not key properly in Boving & Craighead's key. Their example was of an undescribed species from Cuba. The semidiagrammatic illustrations make it difficult to identify the species illustrated, although it may be H. marginipennis (LeConte). This paper is based on larvae collected by the authors, in each case associated with adults. From the family diagnosis of larval Mycteridae (Crowson & Viedma 1964). Hemipeplus larvae differ noticeably in the form of the sensorium, which Crowson & Viedma describe as "very short, dome-shaped"; in Hemipeplus it is elongate and conical. From the larva of Mycterus (described by Crowson & Viedma 1964) those of Hemipeplus also differ in having five ocelli on each side (cf. two), mala with an uncus and medial pit (cf. without uncus or medial pit), mola ridged (cf. not ridged), cardines not divided (cf. distinctly divided, labial palpi with only one distinct palpomere (cf. with two palpomeres), abdominal asperities absent (cf. asperities present), and different form of spiracle (compare fig. 13 with fig. 4 in Crowson & Viedma 1964). Larvae of Hemipeplus are more similar to that of Eurypus muelleri Seldlitz (described by Costa & Vanin 1977) than to that of Mycterus. As in Hemipeplus, Eurypus larvae possess five ocelli arranged in rows of three and two on each side; two pairs of tubercles at posterior margin of abdominal sternite IX; mala with an uncus, and cardines divided. Hemipeplus larvae differ from those of Mycterus most notably in the form of abdominal tergite IX (see Costa & Vanin 1977:fig. 2 ) . The uncus is located on the mesal margin of the mala in Hemipeplus, whereas it is located on the ventral aspect of the mala in Eurypus.…

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Step 1: Things you will need
2. Keyboard
3. Half of a brain (a full brain works just as well, sometimes better)
4. Your hand
If you don't have a hand or a keyboard, there is no real need for this instructable. You would not be able to type without either one of those.
Step 2: Starting the fixing process
Step 3: Use the tool to help with fixing
Step 4: POP!
Hold the key in your hand and admire your work.
Step 5: Check to see if Caps Lock is still on
1. Look at the light on the keyboard
2. Check your computer for signs of Caps Lock
3. Go into Notepad and start typing. If all the letters are capitol, then Caps Lock is still on
Step 6: Turn off Caps Lock
This did not help me. When I searched up how to fix capslock I meant like one that broke off the keyboard into 3 pieces. Here is what I mean:
i'LL JUST MAKE A HOLE.
This is keyist and very pointless. And shows that you type looking at anything but your screen or keyboard.
It could be argued that you are a racist by segregating that key from his black brethren in order to limit his power. Think about it.

This book was great. The international version made it a lot more affordable initially and it had everything I needed in it! The only precaution I would warn about is that if you are a student looking to sell the book back, many places will not take the international version so you may be stuck with the book if it's for a class!read more
The book had everything that the US version has. It was very helpful and it came at a cheaper price.

All questions are based on the expectations in The Ontario Curriculum, Grades 9 and 10: Mathematics (revised 2005) for students in Grade 9 applied and academic programs. The assessment provides multiple opportunities for students to show what they know and what they can do in relation to the strands: Number Sense and Algebra; Linear Relations; Measurement and Geometry; and Analytic Geometry (academic program only) and the categories: Knowledge and Understanding; Thinking; Communication; and Application. The assessment has two components: multiple-choice and open-response.
The assessment is meant to be challenging and engaging, but not stressful. It was developed by classroom teachers to resemble the work that students do in class every day. The questions are reviewed by committees of educators to make sure that they are grade- and age-appropriate. They are also tested extensively with students across the province.
Yes, provided there is time to do so.
Teachers have the option of marking all or part of the assessment and including the mark in your grade for the course.
No. Post-secondary institutions will not have access to your Individual Student Report.

Asclera™ was approved by the FDA on March 30 to treat uncomplicated spider veins (varicose veins less than or equal to 1 mm in diameter) and uncomplicated reticular veins (varicose veins 1 to 3 mm in diameter) in the lower extremities. It has not been studied in larger varicose veins greater than 3 mm in diameter.
Once injected, it acts by damaging the cell lining of blood vessels, causing them to close and eventually disappear.
Clinical support for Asclera™ continues to grow. In the recent Phlebology study, the authors found that polidocanol demonstrated significant efficacy over other treatment options, like sodium tetradecyl sulfate (STS) 1%. In addition, patients reported better satisfaction with polidocanol than with other treatment options.
Highlights from the study include:

what is under her bed?
3 Answers | Add Yours
I assume you are talking about Scout. She steps on something and thinks it's a snake under her bed. Instead, she and Jem discover Dill has run away from home. The Finch children convince Dill to tell Atticus what he has done.
I am not positive of this answer, however, I think the answer to your question is a boy named Charles Baker Harris (Dill). Dill, who is supposed to live in another town with his "new father" who hasn't paid enough attention to him, runs away and comes to Maycomb and Scout finds him hiding under her bed.
Dill is under Scout's bed.

When authorities gunned down 64-year-old Kurt Myers inside the former Glory Days bar Thursday morning, many believe justice had been served.
But the gray-bearded mystery man from Mohawk will never have to face the families whose lives he ruined by killing four people in a shooting spree nearly 24 hours earlier.
Nor will he ever be able to explain why all those people are dead.
That will make it that much harder for police and the community to ever make sense of the series of events that twisted an otherwise typical day in Herkimer County into one of "senseless horror."
"Anytime you have a suspect you can't question because he's dead, all you can do is some background investigation and find out what happened in the days and weeks leading up to the incident, whether there was any pre-planning," state police spokesman Trooper Jack Keller said Thursday. "We're trying to piece together a puzzle, but we're not able to ask the individual himself."
That leaves police to question anyone who might know whether something had gone wrong recently in Myers' life, officials said. But in this case, they said, nobody has come forward yet to shed light on the kind of life Myers was living before it ended in the worst mass shooting the Mohawk Valley has ever seen.
Myers' family has had little contact with him over the years, police said, and it wasn't clear if Myers had been working or involved in a relationship with anyone that could have pushed him over the edge.
Instead, police said, everybody seems to be repeating the same story — that Myers was a loner, a strange man who didn't have much to say to anyone.
One man who worked for 20 years with Myers said the suspect was intelligent, quiet and a good worker who had gotten along well with colleagues.
But Steve Copperwheat, who hired Myers as a machine operator in the early 1980s at Waterbury Felt in Oriskany, a manufacturer of industrial textiles, said he encountered him in a Walmart parking lot three months ago after not seeing him in about 10 years.
"I yelled over to him and he looked at me, said my name, said he was retired, and just went booking away," Copperwheat said. "It was almost like he didn't want anybody to know where he was. He was trying to be very distant, which surprised me. The whole conversation was really spooky."

Pat Neshek's vocation is pitching for the Twins. He put in a nice, tidy day at the workplace Wednesday, facing two batters and striking out both in the Twins' 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Neshek's avocation also is related to baseball. He collects baseball cards. He even set up a Web site — www.patneshek.com — devoted to card collecting.
BS: Which Twin has the most valuable baseball card?
PN: Probably Justin Morneau.
BS: Even more so than Joe Mauer?
PN: Yeah, because Morneau was an MVP. That's a big one. Carlos Gomez is a new guy coming over from the Mets, so there's excitement for that, too. A lot of it is, "What have you done for me lately?" The buzz. The excitement. If anyone is approaching a milestone, that kind of sets people off. Delmon Young has kind of a buzz, too. Then you have the rookies. Nick Blackburn is making a name for himself.
BS: What does Morneau's card cost?
PN: It depends, like if it's a certified autograph card.
BS: Let's say it's autographed.
PN: Certified autograph? Probably 10 to 20 bucks on eBay. I like eBay because that's a more realistic market.
BS: Can you trust buying cards on eBay?
PN: They are authenticated and certified by the card companies.
BS: When careers are over, will Morneau's card still command the most money of all the guys in the Twins' clubhouse?
PN: It depends on what you do and what you accomplish.
BS: How many of your teammates do you have in your collection?
PN: I have everybody. Not all of them are signed, but I have something signed by every person, pretty much.
BS: So, some day, you can make a killing on eBay?
PN: Down the road, yep. (Laughs)
BS: What's a Pat Neshek card worth these days?
PN: There are a lot of them out there, and people know I'll sign them. So, it could get a buck or two. You see them on eBay every once in a while, and they sell just because people know I'll sign them. If I didn't sign them, they probably wouldn't even sell for a penny. I have an autographed one coming out that I did for Topps. They call it a certified autograph. It's my first certified autograph. It comes out in September. I signed a thousand of them, and I put little notes on about 50 different ones.
BS: How much will those cards sell for?
PN: I have kind of a cult following on my Web site, so I would imagine those are going to get pretty good money, I would think around 50 bucks. It's my first signing. It'll be fun to see when they come out.
BS: What's your favorite card that you own?
PN: There are a couple. They made one of me. I liked it because my first card was put in a box topper. It wasn't put in a card pack, and when they did that they only made 599 of them. And then of that 599, they made something called a refractor of that. They only made 25 of them. And that was my very first card.
BS: What's a box topper?
PN: Say you buy a box of 24 packs. On the very top, they just slap a card down.
BS: And it happened to be you. That had to be neat.
PN: It was pretty neat because when they first came out they were going for like 60 bucks, just for the box topper. Then they made one of the box toppers that was even more rare. It was like one out of a 100. They only made 25. That's my favorite card. It's kind of neat — a rookie card and only having 25 of them. I have seven of them.
BS: You have seven of the 25?
PN: Yep. I've only seen like three more that were out there on eBay. They go for about 150 bucks. I don't want to pay that. I'd rather trade people. I tell them I'll suck one day and I'll get them back for a dollar. (Laughs) They're all numbered on the back. That's what makes them cool.
BS: Any other cards special to you?
PN: When I was little, I wrote to a lot of guys and I got back a Hank Aaron card. I sent it in fourth grade and I got it back in sixth grade. I was like, "What the heck is this?" I opened it up and it was Hank Aaron's card. And it was signed in a pen. It wasn't an autopen. That one was pretty neat, I thought. I like the '85 Topps Kirby Puckett card. That was a cool one for us kids, even though it's only worth about five or six bucks now.
BS: Is there a card you really want to get?
PN: Just all 25 of my cards. Or, the remaining 18 of them. People know that, and I trade pretty well for those cards.

Firewire Blocker: A Software Defense Against Firewire-Based Physical Security Attacks on Windows Systems
Date Added: Aug 2009
Format: PDF
This paper presents a software solution to Firewire-based physical security attacks on Microsoft Windows operating systems. In this first proof-of-concept, the FirewireBlocker service is running with SYSTEM privileges in order to be able to enable/disable hardware. While users can normally not interface with service, risk for privilege escalation remains. For example, if users with normal user rights have write access on the executable, they could replace it with a malign piece of software which would then be started with SYSTEM privileges. Future versions should establish the principle of least privilege. Further research is required to identify the fewest required privileges the FirewireBlocker service has to run with in order to be able to serve its purpose.

There is no cure for Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The timeframe of the autoimmune process and inflammation will continue is not predictable. In the vast majority of patients, hypothyroidism results from the inflammatory process.
Thyroid hormone medication can replace the hormones the thyroid made before the inflammation started. There are two major thyroid hormones made by a healthy gland (T3 and T4). Replacing one or both of these hormones can alleviate the symptoms caused by the absolute or relative lack of hormones as a consequence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Without medication, there is very little chance the thyroid would be able to maintain hormone levels within the normal range, and symptoms and signs of hypothyroidism would occur or worsen.
Should I be concerned if I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis and want to become pregnant?
Hashimoto's thyroiditis is not a reason to avoid pregnancy. However, some women with Hashimoto's thyroiditis do have trouble conceiving. In addition to careful obstetric care, management of thyroid hormone replacement by an endocrinologist is helpful. Before conception and during pregnancy, levels of thyroid hormones need to be monitored and optimized. The target goal is usually within the range for nonpregnant women but at the higher end of the normal range.
If you think you may have Hashimoto's thyroiditis, ask your doctor to check your thyroid function and order blood tests to help make a diagnosis. If you know you have Hashimoto's thyroiditis, continue to take medications as directed by your physician, and follow-up regularly with your health care professional for thyroid function tests and optimal care.

Troy, AL (SportsNetwork.com) - Marcus Cox rushed for 119 yards and three touchdowns as the Appalachian State Mountaineers routed the Troy Trojans, 53-14, in a Sun Belt Conference battle at Veterans Memorial Stadium.
Taylor Lamb threw for 110 yards and a touchdown on 9-of-16 passing and added 98 yards and a score on the ground for Appalachian State (2-5, 1-2 Sun Belt). Ricky Fergerson tallied 107 yards on the ground and Terrence Upshaw chipped in with 82.
Brandon Silvers threw for 156 yards on 20-of-30 pass attempts but was intercepted twice for Troy (1-6, 1-2).
Troy struck first, with Brandon Burks scoring on a five-yard touchdown run to cap off the opening drive, which covered 73 yards on 12 plays.
The Mountaineers wasted no time in responding, with Lamb throwing a 59-yard touchdown pass to Malachi Jones on the first play of the ensuing drive.
A 37-yard field goal from Bentlee Critcher near the end of the opening quarter put Appalachian State in front.
The Mountaineers added to their lead less than a minute later. Silvers was stopped on a run and fumbled the ball, which Olawale Dada scooped up and returned 20 yards for a touchdown.
Cox ran into the end zone from two yards out early in the second quarter, but Chandler Worthy helped Troy answer right back, returning the ensuing kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown.
Appalachian State would record a safety at the end of the first half, as it went into the break, leading, 26-14.
That lead would grow early in the second half, as Cox scored on a 33-yard touchdown run with 12:41 left in the third quarter.
The Mountaineers continued to pull away in the third quarter, with Lamb running for a 16-yard touchdown.
Cox piled on to his team's total with a one-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter.
The Mountaineers put the finishing touches on the win with a three-yard touchdown run from Kameron Bryant.
Appalachian State finished with 547 total yards, 437 of which came on the ground. Troy managed only 308 yards of total offense.

High-powered cleanser for dirty power.
Whether you're gigging, laying down tracks or mixing, the AC power feeding your gear is full of interference and line disturbances that you'll hear loud and clear--annoying clicks, buzzes, and hums. And although you may not hear it immediately, dirty power can also cause loss of dynamic range, a harsher-sounding mix, and increased noise floor that can transform your tube-warm tone into a transistorized sonic nightmare that can ruin every song in a set or destroy an otherwise perfect studio take.
Always sound your best
The Monster Clean Power circuitry of the PRO 1000 uses patented filters to dramatically reduce electronic noise on the power line. With clean power, you'll enjoy purer, more natural tone and increased dynamic range, so you'll always sound your best--onstage and in the studio.
Prevent damage
Like personal computers, the sensitive electronics inside your equipment can be easily damaged or destroyed by the surges and spikes common with power lines today. The problem is even worse if you live in an area plagued by lightning or power blackouts. Extremely high voltage can travel through an unstable power line at any time--mid-set on any stage or mid-take in any studio session--seriously damaging or even destroying your precious gear. The Monster Power PRO 1000 features extreme surge protection with 2775 joules of metal oxidized varistor protection for limiting surge voltage and current no matter where your music takes you.
More than just a surge protector
It doesn't just stop with surge. Clearly labeled sockets differentiate between the Analog, Digital, and High Current filters, allowing you to organize your connected gear for easy hookup while also optimizing its performance. That saves a lot of aggravation when you are behind your equipment rack trying to find the right plug.
And unlike regular power strips that always come up just a little too short, you'll appreciate PRO 1000's extra heavy duty cord, which features gold-plated contacts for maximum power transfer, just like you expect in a Monster Power product.

Thomas Jefferson for Kids
Thomas Jefferson for Kids: His Life and Times with 21 Activities Brandon Marie Miller
The basic concept for the For Kids.. with 21 activities series is it's a biography with crafts, projects, and activities interspersed that relate to the person or to the time period. In the past, my biggest complaint has been with the age range, especially of the activities-- some are for kids too old for the book, some for kids too young.
That is not a problem with Thomas Jefferson for Kids. The activities are all age-appropriate with the text, with what I feel is 4-7th grades. There's also a good range of activities-- a Jeffersonian model of the solar system (Neptune optional), dancing a reel (very well explained!), making a floor plan of your dream house, organizing your library, even making a microscope out of a matchbox. I think there's a good range of things for all interests while still being true to Jefferson and his late Colonial/early Republic time period.
I think the biography itself is also really well done-- Miller does an excellent job of highlighting and discussing the good and the bad and showing his inconsistencies and greatness of character. I think she treats the issue very sensitively and does a great job showing that he wasn't perfect, but doesn't demonize him and showing that he did amazing things without lionizing him.
I especially liked the way the book describes and explains the political issues of the new Republic. The book has a fantastic explanation of Federalism vs. Republicanism and the Jefferson/Adams split. It also shows how Washington was often caught in the middle of the two men.
It's a 2011 Cybils nominee and I have to say that it's overall very well done. I think the activities give it much more kid appeal than it would normally have. That said, it lacks that certain je ne sais quoi to move it from solidly well done to best of the best.
Today's nonfiction roundup is over at Practically Paradise.

May 11, 2010 GMTAmy Vernon's Network World article, Leading by example: Women in open source, looks at the low number of women in open source and what steps NCWIT (National Center for Women & Information Technology) is taking to help increase this number. Among other efforts, NCWIT is interviewing women "heroes" in the field, including SpikeSource Inc. CEO and Symons Innovator Award-recipient Kim Polese. According to Vernon, "NCWIT has several women prominent in open source speaking at the summit May 18-20, in addition to Polese, and plans to study the issue more, in hopes of breaking through that barrier." She says that NCWIT found that one way to increase participation by women...

Ethiopian Airlines has signed a technical support pact with fellow African operator RwandAir.
The two sides have given little detail about the agreement but RwandAir says "it was imperative" to explore a partnership with Ethiopian, given that the Addis Ababa-based carrier has been a "pioneer" maintenance provider.
RwandAir operates types including the Boeing 737, as well as Bombardier CRJ regional jets and turboprops. Ethiopian's facilities are capable of handling Boeing and Bombardier types.
Ethiopian chief executive Tewolde Gebremariam says: "It is only by harnessing our resources and capabilities in Africa and establishing all-round co-operation including [maintenance], commercial and training areas that we will be able to withstand the stiff competition from foreign carriers."

News Release: October 21, 2013
Christine A. Somosi
Derek Taylor, PhD, a member of the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine, has been awarded the prestigious New Innovator Award by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The NIH awards this grant to scientists proposing highly innovative approaches to major contemporary challenges in biomedical research, under the agency's High Risk-High Reward program.
"Only the absolute top notch scientists compete for this award, which undergoes intense review by leaders at the NIH," stated Stanton Gerson, MD, Asa and Patricia Shiverick- Jane Shiverick (Tripp) Professor of Hematological Oncology, director of the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center and director of the Seidman Cancer Center at UH Case Medical Center. "Derek continues to excel as a cancer scientist at Case Western Reserve. I have been impressed with his continuous innovative approaches to fundamental questions in cancer. Telomere research is critical since this process is central to how cancer continues to grow and outlive normal cells."
Taylor is an assistant professor, Department of Pharmacology, at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine, and a member of the Case Comprehensive Cancer Center. He received the New Innovator Award to support his research on the induction of cancer cell death by selective DNA misincorporation.
Taylor's laboratory studies chromosome stability. His lab is particularly interested in telomeres, the specialized structures that cap and protect the ends of chromosomes. Dr. Taylor's research also focuses on a special enzyme, telomerase, which interacts with telomeres to contribute to chromosome stability. As telomerase is upregulated in the majority of human cancers, the Taylor lab is investigating how to use its unique mechanism to deliver toxic compounds to cancer cells selectively.
Taylor's research will use telomerase as a "Trojan horse" to deliver toxic drugs exclusively to cancer cells. The results obtained from the proposed experiments could lead to an entirely new, and more successful, method for treating a diverse set of human cancers.
The New Innovator Award initiative, established in 2007, supports investigators who are within 10 years of their terminal degree or clinical residency, but who have not yet received a Research Project Grant (R01) or equivalent NIH grant, to conduct exceptionally innovative research.
Taylor is the only scientist in Ohio to receive a 2013 New Innovator's Award.
