Basehor library to host bird watching class
February 6, 2014
Basehor Ornithologist, author, and bird photographer Dr. David Seibel will present a colorful, fact-filled program on how to recognize birds at your feeders this Spring in an event Sunday at the Basehor Community Library.
Dr. Seibel is a biology professor at Johnson County Community College and is a native Kansan and lifelong birder. His passion for birds has taken him to four continents, nine countries, and most of the lower 48 states as well as Alaska and Hawaii. In 2009, he and his fellow nature photographers Bob Gress and Judd Patterson launched BirdsInFocus.com - an online gallery of publication-quality bird photos.
The event, called Getting to Know Your Backyard Birds, is Sunday at 2 p.m. While supplies last, free copies of A Pocket Guide to Common Kansas Backyard Birds will be available to participants, and autographed copies of Birds of Kansas will be on sale.
For more information, contact the Basehor Community Library at (913)-724-2828.

The impact of the findings on African society is immeasurable, Birbeck said.
"The long-term loss of human potential from these disorders is mind-boggling," she said. "Yes, these children are surviving the malaria, but their quality of life and what they contribute to society is severely hampered. There is a huge burden of post-malaria neurological disorders."
But Birbeck said there are steps that can be taken.
"We need to be more aggressive in treating the two major risk factors: seizures and high fever," she said, adding that the next step will be to start clinical trials to identify treatments aimed at better seizure and fever control.
Previous studies of neurological consequences related to cerebral malaria have been limited by poor retention rates, lack of follow-up and assessments that were stopped when the results of neurological examinations were normal.
Also, cerebral malaria is challenging to diagnose definitively. However, researchers from MSU and the University of Liverpool in England previously had discovered that diagnosing malaria retinopathy a set of abnormalities in the eye's retina greatly enhances the ability to diagnose cerebral malaria. Thus, as part the study published in The Lancet Neurology, Birbeck and her team only looked at children with retinopathy-positive cerebral malaria.
Terrie Taylor, an MSU University Distinguished Professor and co-author on the paper, spends six months each year battling malaria at the Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre, Malawi.
"The challenge now is to devise better treatments during the cerebral malaria episode in hopes of minimizing the risk of epilepsy in years to come," she said.
Birbeck said MSU's continued and dedicated presence in Africa is what allows such research to be done.

Actually, as far as Zarif was concerned, laying an enormous wreath on the grave of Mugniyah was almost certainly the right message, and the decision to send it was no disembodied slip of etiquette. Zarif is a cosmopolitan fellow, a veteran Iranian diplomat who lived for years in the U.S. and served from 2002-2007 as Iran's ambassador in New York to the United Nations. Surely he knew exactly what he was doing, as did his masters in Tehran. The message he sent was a threatening insult to the U.S., and a de facto statement that whatever Iran's regime might be discussing in Geneva, it stands by its terrorists. As for exacerbating tensions in the region, Iran's regime has been more than happy to do that for decades, as long as it works to Tehran's benefit — thus has Iran spawned and supported the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah, armed the Palestinian terrorists of Hamas, salted Iraq and Afghanistan with IEDs, sent its Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to the aid of Syria's beleaguered tyrant Bashar Assad, and threatened to wipe Israel off the map.
The question isn't whether Zarif's homage to Mugniyah sent the wrong message. The question is, apart from the clerical endeavor of labeling it as wrong, what's the U.S. going to do about it?

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

The next round of corporate earnings begin in earnest next week and analysts expect some rough results from companies that do significant business in Europe.
The first earnings report from the July, August, September business period for a company on the Register Star's Star 60 index comes out Friday from JPMorgan Chase.
Next week's set of Star 60 earnings reports come from Supervalu Inc., PNC Financial, U.S. Bancorp, Textron Inc., Union Pacific, Associated Banc-Corp, Verizon Communications, General Electric, McDonalds Corp., Honeywell International and Parker Hannifin.
The Star 60 tracks companies that are significant to the local economy. About 30,000 people in Boone, Ogle, Winnebago and Stephenson counties in Illinois and Rock County in Wisconsin work locally for companies on the index.
Of course, in 2012 everything relating to the economy is a political football. Ironically, even though much of big business has been backing Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, major corporations have been extremely profitable under President Barack Obama.
The second quarter of 2012 marked the 12th straight that the majority of companies on the Star 60 index reported improving net earnings. In April, May and June, 34 of the 58 companies that did report earnings had better bottom lines than the same quarter of the year before.
Widget: blog_inline_images
image image_size Large
The struggling European economy has become a major drag on the world wide recovery and signs of that began to show up in the second quarter. The median percent increase for revenues on the index was just 3.3 percent in the second quarter. That was the lowest since revenues declined in the fourth quarter of 2009 -- which was the fifth straight declining quarter at the time.
Still, despite the flattening revenues, Star 60 companies ground out a median profit margin of 7.4 percent. That was the highest median profit margin for companies on the index since the Register Star began tracking Star 60 profits in the third quarter of 2008.

image image_size Large
A continuing economic frustration is that even though major corporations have been extremely profitable for three straight years now, they've been slow to rehire all of the workers cut in 2008 and 2009.

NEW ORLEANS, March 25 /PRNewswire/ -- The US Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has extended its existing contract with Bureau Veritas North America for a period of six months to continue the formaldehyde testing of temporary housing units (THUs) in Louisiana and Mississippi. FEMA exercised its option on the contract based on its desire to continue to provide formaldehyde sampling services for temporary housing occupants. The contract is currently projected to end on August 14, 2009.
Bureau Veritas, a global quality assurance, health, safety, and environmental services firm, was contracted to test for formaldehyde levels in trailers in February of 2008, and since that time has sampled close to 4,000 units. All work has been performed by trained and experienced health and safety consultants, under the supervision of Certified Industrial Hygienists. Samples are being submitted to an American Industrial Hygiene Association accredited laboratory for analysis. The contract was intended to develop additional data on the levels of formaldehyde off-gassing from building materials used to construct the units, and other potential sources of formaldehyde inside the units.
The contract work grew from a previous study by the Centers for Disease Control that demonstrated an average of 77 parts per billion in 519 units sampled by Bureau Veritas. Residents of the THUs had voiced concerns about air quality in the trailers and the occurrence of respiratory and other symptoms that the residents felt resulted from exposure to formaldehyde or other respiratory irritants. FEMA continues to inform occupants about the levels of formaldehyde being found in those units that have been sampled. The FEMA program is voluntary and the sampling is performed in response to occupant requests to their local FEMA officials.

Grab a baker's dozen of fun in the highly anticipated sequel to the hit series! Help Jill and her friends purchase, open, manage and upgrade four unique shops. Bake cakes, create floral arrangements and more in 100 fast-paced levels.
Only two things need to change. The gameplay is too small keep hitting tea instead of the frosting and you can't cancel the order at all. Change this and will give 5 stars thankyou.
Favourite! Obvi not as good as the original PC game, but on HTC one good gameplay, no lagging and nice amount of demo levels...tempted to buy full version :/
Waste of money I love this game but this version is a waste of money. Unable to play this game because everything is so small on the screen and I can't finish the round because when I tap on certain things it just doesn't work. Wish I could get a refund. Don't waste your money!
The wonderful game ever I have seen It is a nice game install and enjoy this wonderful game *************** loved it so much ummmmmmmmmm
Stupid!!! I already knew I liked the game and was excited to find it here. I'm making progress on my levels and then it decides to tell me ITS A STUPID TRIAL. I just wasted my time. Thanks a lot. Put on the freaking title that its a trial. Ugh.
Awesome game Super fun and entertaining..love this app..it makes waiting at the Dr office alittle less boring.lol

Harnessing brain signals to control keyboards, robots or prosthetic devices is an active area of medical research. Now a rare peek at a human brain hooked up to a computer shows that the two can adapt to each other quickly, and possibly to the brain's benefit.
Researchers at the University of Washington looked at signals on the brain's surface while using imagined movements to control a cursor. The results, published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, show that watching a cursor respond to one's thoughts prompts brain signals to become stronger than those generated in day-to-day life.
"Bodybuilders get muscles that are larger than normal by lifting weights," said lead author Kai Miller, a UW doctoral student in physics, neuroscience and medicine. "We get brain activity that's larger than normal by interacting with brain-computer interfaces. By using these interfaces, patients create super-active populations of brain cells."
The finding holds promise for rehabilitating patients after stroke or other neurological damage. It also suggests that a human brain could quickly become adept at manipulating an external device such as a computer interface or a prosthetic limb.
The team of computer scientists, physicists, physiologists and neurosurgeons studied eight patients awaiting epilepsy surgery at two Seattle hospitals. Patients had electrodes attached to the surface of their brains during the week leading up to the surgery and agreed to participate in research that would look at connecting brains to a computer.
Asking people to imagine doing a movement such as moving their arm is commonly done to produce a brain signal that can be used to control a device. But how that process works is poorly understood.
"A lot of the studies in this field are in non-human primates," Miller said. "But how do you ask an animal to imagine doing something? We don't even know that they can."

On October 15, 2010, in Sherman v. Koch, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Illinois' Silent Reflection and Student Prayer Act, which requires schools to observe a daily period for "silent prayer or for silent reflection on the anticipated activities of the day." As we reported in a previous FR Alert, the court held that there was a secular purpose behind the daily reflection period, specifically calming students and preparing them for learning.
Sherman appealed the Seventh Circuit's decision to the United States Supreme Court, arguing that the court should hear the case because there were split decisions among federal appeals courts concerning such laws....

Megan is a recent graduate of the IHL program. Her original academic research developed an assessment scale for integrative medicine clinics to examine essential conditions for optimal and sustained well-being. She assisted Elliot Dacher, MD, in the presentation of a beta workshop on human flourishing. That workshop has now been developed into a required course for IHL with the intention of providing a meditative foundation for incoming cohorts. In addition, she has a deep interest in Ayurvedic Medicine.
Megan teaches Mindfulness and Optimal Wellbeing and Sustainable Health and Ecology
In Mindfulness and Optimal Wellbeing, participants will learn the theoretical aspects of the integral health model and human flourishing (psychospiritual, biological, interpersonal, and worldly aspects), learning how to incorporate meditation and mindful lifestyle practices personally and professionally. The course will include an in‐depth exploration of both traditional and modern scientific understandings about the relationship between mind and matter, and the relevance of mindfulness and daily lifestyle practices in the health and wellness field. Participants will gain the skills and knowledge to incorporate mindfulness and integral healing into their integrative health practices, learning how to expertly support lasting behavior change, mindful living, and optimal health and well‐being.
Sustainable Health and Ecology utilizes systems theory to explore sustainable life practices that create optimal well-being, social equality, and environmental renewal. We will consider the perspective of health as a balanced use of life resources (physical, ecological, modified, social, mental, emotional, and spiritual) to understand the root cause of dis-ease. We will examine practical skills in healthy lifestyle design, stress reduction, self-care practices, conscious consumption, social activism, and community-building that promote optimal health and well-being and social, emotional, and ecological intelligence.

Peavy: 'No excuses. It's on me'
DETROIT – When the Red Sox acquired right-hander Jake Peavy just before the trading deadline in July in a three-team deal that cost them defensive whiz Jose Iglesias, general manager Ben Cherington said he was excited to add "a proven major league starter" who had had "a ton of success in his career" who could help the team get into the playoffs for the first time since 2009.
Peavy did that, going 4-1, with a 4.04 ERA, in 10 starts for the Sox.
Still, his start in Game 4 of the ALCS Wednesday night against the Tigers at Comerica Park was not what they had in mind from the 2007 National League Cy Young Award winner and three-time All-Star. Peavy lasted just three innings, plus two batters in the fourth, giving up seven runs on five hits and three walks with one strikeout.
"Bad game all around," Peavy said. "I do know that we're going to come back and play better than this."
The seven runs are the fourth-highest single-game total for any Sox pitcher in postseason history, tied with Time Wakefield in Game 3 of the 1995 ALDS, Jim Lonborg (Game 7, 1967 World Series), and Cy Young (Game 1, 1903 World Series). The team postseason record of eight runs is held by Josh Beckett (Game 2, 2008 ALCS), Matt Clement (Game 1, 2005 ALDS), and Roger Clemens (Game 1, 1986 ALCS).
This was the shortest of Peavy's four career postseason starts. His longest has been just 5 2/3 innings, against the Rays in clinching Game 4 of the ALDS. The seven runs allowed are one shy of his career postseason high in the 2005 NLDS against the Cardinals. He has a career postseason ERA of 10.31, giving up 21 earned runs in 18 1/3 innings over four outings. In two postseason outings with the Red Sox, his ERA is 8.30, giving up eight earned runs in 8 2/3 innings.
"It's tough when you feel like you let the boys down," Peavy said. "I've got a bad taste in my mouth. I just couldn't make the big pitch to minimize the damage."
Peavy's outing started off well enough. He needed just 12 pitches to get through the first inning, retiring Torii Hunter on a groundout to third baseman Will Middlebrooks, striking out Miguel Cabrera looking at a slider, and getting Prince Fielder to ground out to Middlebrooks.
Peavy had trouble commanding his fastball, reverting to heavy dose of off-speed pitches. He came undone in the second, when the Tigers batted around, scoring five runs. Peavy needed 31 pitches to get through the inning. He allowed three walks in the inning, including a bases-loaded, one-out, four-pitch walk to Austin Jackson, who has struggled through most of the postseason. With two outs, he gave up consecutive hits, including a two-run double to Hunter and an RBI single to Miguel Cabrera, before getting Fielder to ground out ending the inning.
"You face an aggressive swinging team like that, you can't leave too many pitches over the plate, especially off-speed stuff," said catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia. "I feel like they don't miss those pitches. You can get away with fastballs every once in a while but those off-speed pitches you can't leave them over the middle. You got to execute a little better. We had a great game plan going into it, just maybe a little too excited and over throwing a little bit. But tuff was there, just left it over the plate too much."
Jackson entered the game batting .091 in the postseason, going 3-for-33 with 18 strikeouts, one RBI, two walks, no stolen bases, and a run scored. He reached base in both plate appearances against Peavy with a walk, a single. He drove in two, scored a run and a stole a base.
"Got to make him swing the bat," Peavy said of the four-pitch walk to Jackson in the second. "And just couldn't do that."
Peavy appeared to collect himself, getting through the third in order on eight pitches. But, he gave up a leadoff ground-rule double to Omar Infante in the fourth and a run-scoring single to Jackson, ending Peavy's outing.
Of the 17 batters he faced, seven scored.
"I thought he was crisp in the first inning, and in the second inning looked like he pitched a little too fine," manager John Farrell said. "Obviously the pitching behind the count, issued three walks. They bunched some hits. Obviously the big one, Torii Hunter's. Even after that we walk in the two runs. [Jose Iglesias] hits a hard hit ball to second base that looked like it handcuffed [Dustin Pedroia] a little bit. And instead of being out of it with just two runs, then the base hitting behind it, and they put five on the board in that second inning."
The Sox had a chance to get out of the second with minimal damage. But Pedroia had trouble handling Jose Iglesias potential double play grounder. Although, the Sox were able to get one out, on a force at second, thanks to a generous call by umpire Dan Iassogna when Pedroia flipped to shortstop Stephen Drew, who was in the vicinity of second base.
"We dug ourselves a hole," Peavy said. "We had our chances to get out of that inning and minimize the damage. … That's a tough play. Pedey, that's not on him. I've got to do a better job.
"No excuses," Peavy said. "It's on me. I can promise you we'll be back tomorrow as a ballclub, ready to go."

Anyway, my girlfriend wants to paint the room a soft red which is fine for me and will let me paint a different color around the enlarger, but would prefer it to not be black. Ole, I'm curious about the fire engine red... is there a certain red paint color that will mimic the effect of a safe light? Is there a certain pantone number? I'm thinking of taking one of the uni jr. red safelight bulbs up to lowes and having them match the color... any thoughts?

I am trying to create a serialization layer which allows me to:
- Store my classes in a MongoDB data source
- Convert them to JSON to use them in a REST API.
Some classes are clearly not case classes (because they are inherited from a Java codebase) and I would have to write ad-hoc code for that. Is registering a BSON Hook for my non standard type the correct approach, and does it provide Json serialization?

Publisher's Description
The sadness and the tenderness of life are felt so acutely in the presence of beauty, and love is revealed more in our sorrow than in our joy. Solomon, from Solomons Song
The wisest of all kings, beloved son of King David and his wife Bathsheba, builder of a prosperous empire, lover to many wives and concubinesKing Solomon was once merely a son of David with no guarantee of ever taking the throne. On the cusp of adulthood, with no direction in life, Solomon found himself infatuated . . . in love with a lowly shepherdess, a young maiden chosen for his father to serve David in his later years.
Overhead clouds ceased to discharge life-giving rain, and the anxious people looked to King David for relief from the famine. In their weakness they turned from Yahweh and sacrificed to foreign gods. But David's eldest son, Adonijah had a plan, one that could cost the Benjamites their lives. Revenge.
Solomon was still Bathshebas eldest sons and with it came certain family expectations. His mother wanted nothing less than the throne for her eldest living son. He must marry a princess first, and then he can marry any common woman he desired.
Solomon struggled against family expectations and his chief rival, his own brother, Adonijah; he fought against the most disappointing aspect of his quest to become ruler, "Love is nothing, when pitted against strength and power."
Author Bio
Editorial Reviews
Based upon Solomon's Song of Songs, this tells the story of David's favorite son Solomon and his love, Shulamit, along with the semi-tragic misunderstandings and political machinations that kept them apart. That part's fictional - we don't know anything about her other than her name, family and where she came from - but there's plenty of historical detail as well as information from the Bible, from direct quotes from the Song to explanations of how the many names of God amplify our understanding and experience of Him, and some good wisdom imparted from Shulamit's mother, Ramat. Rated 4 out of 5 stars.
Reviewed by Hilary Carter, Net Galley, November 4, 2013
Fifth book of the authors Old Testament Biblical series, this three hundred and two page historical fiction targets readers who love romance, the Songs of Solomon, and sibling rivalry. With the slang version of an illegitimate child used and stories of war, adultery, and immorality, it would best be read by mature adults.
With Biblical scholars noting the Abishag of First Kings could be the lover mentioned in Songs of Solomon, Kerr writes a believable love story that comes to life between royalty and common folk.

Product Reviews
Mrs. CMissourlAge: 45-54Gender: Female5 Stars Out Of 5A Page TurnerMarch 26, 2014Mrs. CMissourlAge: 45-54Gender: FemaleThis review was written for Solomon's Song.Roberta Kells Dorr is a master author of Biblical historical novels. I close each book having learned more about the Jewish culture of that day and interest to seek additional knowledge of the characters she includes in her writings.
I was fascinated by the cunning of Bathsheba, Solomon's mother, who desired her son to become the greatest king on earth. When she discovers that her son is falling in love with a common Shulamite shepherdess maiden, she arranges for her husband, King David, to bring her into the palace to warm the king in his old age. This does not quench Solomon's love , but actually causes his heart to yearn for her more. In the end, not hate nor greed but love wins!
Where Scripture is very silent, this author writes about the culture of this time. The love Solomon had for this woman is the love that every marriage should possess. It is the love that every woman yearns for and is blessed if she finds. This book was beautifully written, yet intense, as I felt the internal struggle Solomon faces when his mother manipulates his life. I felt his joy as he, at last, experiences life with the woman his heart longed for.
I encourage you to purchase a copy to curl up with for a couple evenings or for a weekend treat. Solomon's Song is published by Moody Publishers, a company you can trust for clean romance novels.

Beauty Queen
- Filed Under
In this line of work, one never knows what the days will hold. But after 20 some years, Im rarely surprised disgusted and saddened by some events, touched or delighted by others, but rarely surprised. Its a job that can take you on a roller coaster of emotions as you watch the cases of cruelty unfold and then, on the other hand, see other much more fortunate animals have good things come about for them. A couple of recent cruelty cases, though, certainly left me shaking my head. Im not sure what the exact term would be that would describe my reaction to these two situations. But, suffice it to say, between those and the standard violations for which our Cumberland County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals investigators can write summonses, I wish there was a statute for acts of idiocy. I dont suppose its politically correct for me to say that but ... oh, well!
The first situation involved an 18-year-old Chihuahua getting shot with a .22-caliber rifle. I cant get into all the details, but let me put it in a nutshell. Dog urinates on floor allegedly. Adult male in house fires rifle in the direction of the dog allegedly. Man goes and wakes up adult female in house and says something like, Oh my God, I cant believe I shot your dog allegedly. Woman calls police really. Police come, take the man to jail and tell woman to get the dog to the vet really. Hours later, when investigators return to the house to make sure dog has been cared for, owner is asleep and dog is still bleeding and unattended really.
REALLY??? I bet it never occurred to most of us to use a gun as a housebreaking tool, right? I also would imagine that most of us would consider a bullet hole in our animal a reason to react with some semblance of urgency, right? The dog survived for a few days in the veterinary hospital, but eventually succumbed to her injuries. Summonses for a number of violations have been issued.
The second case involved a young shepherd mix pup that was tied up outside with a leash and a heavy extension cord no food, no water and no shelter. The extension cord and leash were so tangled and twisted around his neck that the dogs head and neck were severely swollen from strangulation. His neck literally resembled that of a bullfrog when its inflated. The dog also was dehydrated and infested with intestinal parasites.
We see animals lacking food, water and shelter on a daily basis, but I can honestly say that Ive NEVER seen a dog so swollen that his head was filled with fluid. The owners of the dog were at home, and it had to take hours if not a day or two to get this out of hand. No one notices that the dog is blown up like a bullfrog? That he is tangled and nearly being strangled to death? Apparently not. Summonses for a number of violations have been issued.
Henry is about 6 months old and recovering. He will need some time, some TLC and some confidence-building to become a happy dog, as his ordeal has left him a bit traumatized. He will be available for adoption very soon.
So, again, summonses have been issued in both cases. But honestly, it hardly seems like enough. Two dogs suffering unnecessarily at the hands of ridiculously irresponsible people lets hope the judge in these cases scratches his or her head and slams down the gavel hard.

Yabby is a sweet 7-year-old Bichon and poodle mix who was released to the shelter when his owner passed away. He is a nice dog, friendly toward everyone, and good with both cats and other dogs. Yabby is housebroken, having had free rein of the house. He is lovely guy and he needs a second chance at a loving forever home.
Endora is a very sweet and loving cat. Her beautiful green eyes will mesmerize you. She lives in a house with a big yellow Lab, so she is fine with dogs. She is a great listener and will talk to you on occasion. She loves attention and she will give attention right back to you. Endora deserves a wonderful home and family; will it be yours?

Oliver is a handsome guy. This cat is about 3 years old and already neutered. Wouldnt he look good lounging on your sofa?
Pisa was a little scared when she came in, but she is settling in and warming up. She needs a loving home to show her how great people can be. Pisa is about a year old.
Lily is a little shy but very sweet. She is only a year old and would really love a new home.

Oscar De La Hoya Cocaine Photos: For Sale?
Photos of Oscar De La Hoya on an apparent cocaine binge in Las Vegas are on the market and being shopped to the highest bidder, according to reports.
Oscar De La Hoya is a champion boxer. He is also a guy who likes to wear women's clothes, but that's cool. We're not here to judge. Just...
Photos of Oscar De La Hoya on an apparent cocaine binge in Las Vegas are on the market and being shopped to the highest bidder, according to reports.
Oscar De La Hoya has checked into rehab facility as he continues to fight his substance abuse, the former boxing champion confirmed in a statement.
In a new interview with Univision, former boxer Oscar De La Hoya has opened up about the depth of his personal issues, which culminated this spring in a trip to rehab.
"Rock bottom was recently," De La Hoya said, according to an English-language transcript provided by the network. "Within couple of years, just thinking if my life was even worth it. I don't have the strength, I don't have the courage to take my own life but I was thinking about it."
Details are emerging on why Oscar De La Hoya has entered a treatment facility.
Insiders tell TMZ the boxer recently started dabbling in cocaine, a dangerous habit that contributed to infidelity in his marriage.
Oscar De La Hoya has met an opponent he can't knock down with a single punch: substance abuse.
The legendary boxer has entered a rehab facility, sources tell TMZ, entering a program a couple weeks ago in California.
Some things are just too good to be true.
The rumored Lauren Conrad sex tape is one example... no way that thing exists. Same goes for those supposed Oscar de la Hoya drag photos.
Milana Dravnel, the stripper suing boxing champion Oscar De La Hoya for $100 million, showed up to court Friday to begin her case against him.
Naturally, she provided a full photo shoot in front of the courthouse.
The stripper who claims that she had a strange, torrid fling with boxing champion Oscar de la Hoya - and has the alleged stilettoed, kinky drag photos to prove it - is fighting to get the hunk into the ring. Legally. So to speak.
Oscar, meanwhile, is trying to send the case to a secret arbitration.

Hi Nadine,
Could you write something related to finance tying in with what you have done previously? Have a budget and energy for an advance degree? Do you still have a good relationship with the previous client?
You have done what I observed from the outsourcing companies common protocols. The only thing you lack is your own company with enough capital and asset to have your employees work offsite instead at the clients site. Even the clients insist you send people to work at their site, must resist to the temptation. I know there are genuses out there, but I rather lock them up in the computer room without window. Only open the door when their shifts over. Select the location so you could afford bid low for a long time.
Just a Thought,

Find your niche or industry. For some its defense work, for others its finance, or specializing in wireless communications, or mapping technologies. It seems in this market, simply being a good
developer is not enough to even get an interview. Job descriptions all seem to require 5-10+ years experience in this or that industry, so I'd say pick one of them that's interesting to you and stick with it. Switching industries will be difficult until we have another IT shortage. Also be sure to get to know the business side of your industry really well - that's what will keep some new grad punk you just taught from taking your job.

*Thank* you Matt and Lu for steering me in the right direction. The idea of business knowledge having so much bearing in today's job market couldn't be more true. Not sure why this never occurred on me and am very appreciative that you brought this to my attention.
I think I *will* consider writing an article that ties in finance (with software) since this is my area of interest. (I've been studying for the NASD Series 7 exam and am sure I can find an article spinoff.)
Also, there are a number of financial applications (Lawson financials?? and so on). It would be advantageous for me to try to pick them up (either by attending classes or puchasing the software).
Thanks - I'm back on track again!

Teen arrested in connection with two robbery attempts
Published: Thursday, August 9, 2007 at 2:18 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, August 9, 2007 at 2:18 p.m.
OCALA - A 16-year-old who had two warrants for his arrest was arrested Wednesday after police say he attempted to rob two people in separate incidents.
Shortly after 12:30 p.m., a grounds keeper at the Hampton Center, 1501 W. Silver Springs Blvd., was approached by a teen who wanted information about an attempted burglary. The maintenance man told the teenager - later identified Demario A. Carter - he needed to contact someone else and went into an office, according to Ocala police.
The man said he heard a knocking on the office door and when he opened it saw the boy holding a two-inch pocket knife. The boy demanded money. The maintenance man then reached into his pocket and showed the teen his own knife and the boy fled.
Around 5 p.m., the Police Department received a call about someone on a bicycle attempting to snatch a woman's purse. The incident occurred in a parking lot in the 1900 block of Southwest College Road.
When officers arrived, they went to Shady Hollow apartments, which are close by, and saw a man whose clothing fit the description they had. Officers gave chase and eventually caught Carter. The boy blamed a 15-year-old for committing the crime. Officers took both teenagers to the location of the attempted purse-snatching.
Though the woman, who had red marks on her left arm where the purse had been couldn't identify either teen, a witness picked out Carter, as the person who tried to grab the woman's bag.
The 16-year-old denied the charge and then later confessed, according to police. Officers say Carter has warrants on charges of absconding from supervision and failure to appear, dealing in stolen property and possession of marijuana. He was taken to the Juvenile Assessment Center.
The other teen was arrested on a warrant issued in connection with a stabbing.
