Caddo Parish Commissioner Michael Williams on Monday urged housing authority officials to rebuild trust with Allendale residents who believed they were being displaced for the Interstate 49 inner-city connector and not for a new development being built on what was once the site of the Naomi Jackson Heights housing project.
"People felt like they were lied to, bamboozled and hoodwinked," Willliams told Toni Jackson, counsel for the Shreveport Housing Authority.
Jackson Heights was demolished in 2004. Williams said residents were told they were being displaced because they were in ...

Look up family man in a dictionary and you will find Wayne Douglas listed as a synonym.
Wayne E. Douglas died unexpectedly on Jan. 5. He was 51 years old. He leaves a loving wife, four cherished sons and a town full of friends.
Douglas was a lifelong Petaluman, born and raised in the city that he loved. He was educated in Petaluma schools and remained in the community to marry his wife of 23 years, Laura. Together they had four sons -#8212; Ryan, Dean, Logan and Shane -#8212; who inherited their father's athleticism and are the focus of their parents' lives.
Douglas was a standout athlete at Petaluma High School. Petaluma track coach Doug Johnson remembers Douglas the sprinter from the early '80s. "He was a great kid and a great leader," the coach recalled. "He was a tremendous competitor, and he passed that competitive spirit along to his kids." Oldest son, Ryan, was a league champion distance runner for Johnson, who was good enough on both track and in the classroom to earn admission to Yale.
Douglas worked for KVAL Machinery for more than 30 years as service manager for the company that manufactures computer-controlled custom equipment for commercial and residential specialty doors.
He liked working around his Petaluma home. "He loved doing projects," Laura said. "He enjoyed hard work."
He was also an avid camper. "Camping was his favorite past time," his wife said. "Casini Ranch was our favorite place. Before the boys got into sports, we would go every other weekend."
But, Douglas' real love and passion were his sons.
"They meant the world to him," Laura said. "Nothing was more important to him than his boys."
All four boys played Little League baseball for the Petaluma National Little League, and Douglas was right there with each of them, not just attending games, but serving on the board of directors and constantly working on the league fields.

Aniston's R20 beauty secretComment on this story
Thrifty Jennifer Aniston doesn't just rely on expensive creams and overpriced serums to maintain her youthful skin.
The wealthy 43-year-old actress keeps wrinkles at bay using a tried-and-tested technique that costs under R20.
Every night, she religiously smooths trusted beauty stand-by Vaseline below each eye.
The former Friends star starts each morning with another simple – and free – technique for glowing skin.
She fills her sink with water and ice cubes and dips her face in it to shrink the pores and reduce puffiness around her eyes.
"Jen doesn't like the thought of surgery because she doesn't want to look stretched, so she has a 30-minute nightly beauty ritual," an insider told Now magazine.
"Jen's very disciplined when it comes to staying young."
The LA-based actress, who is dating Justin Theroux, begins her DIY facial by steaming her pores for 10 minutes.
She then applies a gentle cleanser and toner, followed by Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion.
Dedicated Jennifer then applies a vitamin A treatment from Anna Lotan called Rénova, which she leaves on for another 10 minutes, in which time she smooths vitamin E capsules on to her shins and elbows.
The final touch is the quarter of a teaspoon of Vaseline under each eye. It may seem like an effort, but if the key to flawless skin is elbow grease rather than pricey products, perhaps we should all start trying the Aniston regime. – Daily Mail

2011 Beef Quality Audit Underway, Producer Input Needed
For the first time in the history of the National Beef Quality Audit, cattle producers are being asked to provide their input! The 2011 NBQA, led by scientists from Colorado State University and Texas A&M University, is designed to collect and analyze information from cooler audits in the packing sector, face-to-face interviews with beef supply chain partners and for the first time cattle producers including feeders, stockers, cow-calf operators, and seedstock producers. Producer input is being sought to strengthen the measurement of quality-based practices implemented on farms and ranches that support consumer confidence in beef products and production systems.
The checkoff-funded National Beef Quality Audit (NBQA) has provided important benchmarks for the U.S. beef industry since 1991. The audit has been conducted approximately every four years with the historic focus centered on quantifying the performance of beef carcasses for a number of value enhancing characteristics.
The 2011 audit hopes to quantify the current adoption level of quality driven management practices by the industry and develop a benchmark against which to measure future performance. By collecting input from cattle producers, they will help consumers and decision influencers better understand beef production and the commitment of cattlemen to producing safe and wholesome beef products.

The trip is a jet boat ride to the site..camp over and explore the surrounding area.
Take both lenses.
I have been told that the 300mm lens would be a good standard lens to use on an 8 x 10 format for studio photographs = portraits and full figure.
I have also been told to use a 450mm lens in preference to the 300mm.
I would like to hear what some of you experts use in the studio.
If I could also use the lens in a outdoor setting (landscapes) that would be an extra bonus.
I intend to try a 210mm lens that I already have.
Answers always appreciated.
Go to flickr.com and serach "8x10 450mm" and "8x10 300mm". Or go into some of the LF/8x10 groups and search the focal lengths. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand posts!
So Paul, How did that trip pan out? Did you find a 135 that the P would handle and how did it work?
My normal lens on my 8x10 is a 300 Ektar Commercial. Stunning.

Where ever you are, there you be.
Wow! Talk about a pain in the rear for shooting out and about in nature. I'd do yourself a favor for future outings. F's are cheap. Pick up an F-2 rear standard and a multipurpose standard for the front so you can leave the big P standards at home on this sort of trip, and end up with a lightweight and compact F-1. Doing this makes the camera about 6 lbs. sans lens and board – about as much as a Technika. The usefulness of most of the P's benefits (i.e. precision and solidity) is all but lost out in nature anyhow, and they do nothing but add weight (and quite a bit of it).
How did it turn out in the end? What lens did you use?
"Truth and love are my law and worship. Form and conscience are my manifestation and guide. Nature and peace are my shelter and companions. Order is my attitude. Beauty and perfection are my attack."
- Rob Tyner (1944 - 1991)
The 300 Ektar Commercial is what i will start looking for. Appreciate your help. It will be mainly for studio setups...but I trust it will be fine for outdoors also.
I used the H'blad in the end for the river trip...but used the Sinar for some interior shots at the River community called Jerusalem.
Are your photographs 8 x 10 's? I could only see them as thumbnails as I am not subscribed yet.
I especially liked the flags.
Ok Tim..thanks.
I know what you mean by the Sinar being weighty. I used the convenient Hasselblad in the end.
Its 8 x 10 lenses that interest me now. I like the time and concentration the Sinar P requires to set up.
The lens I am after is for a studio set up.

This is great to know. Would the 14" Commercial Ektar be just as effective for portraits on the 4 x 5 ?
hello Brian. Do you have any examples on line of your portraits taken with the Ektar on your 4 x 5" ?

AT&T 'evaluating' using iPhone's new hotspot feature
updated 02:55 pm EST, Tue January 11, 2011
ATT on the fence about Verizon iPhone hotspot
AT&T in a statement to Electronista said it was "evaluating" the iPhone mobile hotspot feature added with iOS 4.2.5 on the Verizon model. It didn't reject the feature out of hand but said that it had only just been unveiled. The company didn't give an estimate but hinted it might come in the future.
"This is a brand new software feature from Apple," spokesman Seth Bloom said. "We are evaluating the feature, but have no plans to announce today."
It's unknown so far whether AT&T was aware of the hotspot feature in advance, although by necessity it would have been aware of the end of its US exclusivity.
The company doesn't necessarily have to use the feature upon its inclusion and has previously been cautious relative to other carriers. Tethering was added to iOS 3 in mid-2009 but, due to the oversaturated AT&T network, was available everywhere but the US until a year later. Android devices from AT&T have also typically omitted hotspot support where it's present on Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon.
Verizon has yet to reveal how much it will charge for hotspots and could ask $20 or more while capping the data to 2GB.

SeaMonkey rolled backWary 104 testers have reported a slight but annoying delay when scrolling with SM 2.0.11.
This site was given as an example:
I have compared with SM 2.0.7, and yes, there does seem to be a difference.
I have not seen the changelog, but 2.0.7 has a bug with scrolling, the page scrolling too far when you try to scroll just a bit, and my guess is they tried to fix it. But, it is a very bad fix.
So, for Wary final I am rolling back to SM 2.0.7.
Comments:Posted on 24 Dec 2010, 17:34 by ozsouth
2.0.11 OK with me
Might be my slow arthritic fingers, but on both my 2003 Toshiba & 2010 Compaq, no scrolling problem.
Posted on 24 Dec 2010, 18:07 by Sage
Smart move - thanks.
Didn't notice any issues with 2.0.7.
Might want to look at jemimah's Fluppy10 with Midori. This is one clever lady; it seems to work on most machines, USB, CF, Frugal AND NOW FULL on HD! I prefer Claws but there are plenty of emailing options of smaller size (or zero for webmail). Cannot see any persuasive argument for a fully integrated comms suite and there may be some reasons to separate the various functions, esp as jem. has described how to link Midori with Claws for those who insist.
Anyone for cricket...

SeaMonkey rolled back
Hi barry that page had 32 errors on it, maybe that's it.
Posted on 25 Dec 2010, 4:18 by Béèm
SeaMonkey 2.0.11
Tried with Lucid 5.1. and SeaMonkey 2.0.11 directly downloaded from Mozilla's site.
I tried several pages from different menu's and don't have the problem.
However sites with heavy graphic/flashy things gives indeed this issue.
But I think I got this before 2.0.7 already

jemimah's Fluppy10 with Midori
+1 for Midori
seems to work well on all sites I usually read.
Posted on 25 Dec 2010, 8:41 by scsijon
same with ffox
same results with the site and ffox 369, maybe really a site problem
Posted on 25 Dec 2010, 12:25 by PaulBx1
I've seen this
I've tried Seamonkey 2.0.9 and 2.0.10 in Lupu 511 and both have a problem that I call "rubberband" scrolling, as if your connection of the cursor to the scroll bar is through a rubber band. On some sites it is very hard to scroll to the place you want, because it keeps overshooting.
Posted on 25 Dec 2010, 20:17 by Jota
Stupid decision??
Barry, maybe you don't like my words, but the decision to not use the latest Seamonkey, is at least, a very precipitate one (some may call it "stupid")
Between 2.0.7 and 2.0.11 there was many security fixes, including one "big hole" that was already being exploited by malicious sites.
So, you are trading security for a faster scroll... that does not seem to me a smart move, but as always, you're the boss......
(FYI, the problem with the scrolling only happens on some sites with bad written JS, and it helps if you disable "smooth scrolling")
A very good Christmas for you and your family and enjoy your holidays!!
Posted on 25 Dec 2010, 22:35 by FeodorF
Please check SM-2.0.11 again
If I am trying to test the given address:
it is going to take 12 seconds before all the data has been send from this host (on a 244KB/sec line).
Have you ever watched -blinky- closely?
If you try to scroll while data is still transmitted (page buildup not completed) scrolling will be messed up.
Regards, Feodor
Posted on 26 Dec 2010, 7:24 by gcmartin
I having seen this problem when comparing couple systems side by side using old vs new.
I'm sure you already know this, but, if you do decide to roll, would you or someone report this to SeaMonkey development. Everyone could benefit.
Cheers everyone! Enjoy the season.

SM rolled forward again
Yeah, I agree it is not the best to roll SM back. I have restored version 2.0.11. We will be moving to 2.1 soon anyway (probably). Note, smooth scrolling is already off by default.
Posted on 29 Dec 2010, 8:35 by ttuuxxx
Hi Barry as smooth scrolling goes, I'm using 4 series and when I went to that website, I would of given it a 2 out of 10 for smooth scrolling with smooth scrolling turned off. The new Commodore 64 web page http://www.commodoreusa.net/CUSA_C64.aspx I would of given it a 0.5 out of 10 for scrolling. Yes even a worse site. It slowed the pc down to a point where I thought it crashed. But then I had an idea, changing the video driver, by default the nv video driver was being loaded by xorg wizard at bootup, so I've been using that for my NV video card, But I switched to Vesa video driver, what a difference, I would now give http://www.skiboardsonline.com/forums/index.php a 8 out of 10 it has just a tiny bit lag, and the commodore 64 page I would give it a 9.5 out of ten, what a complete turn around. At my end its more of a video driver issue than website coding issue.
Ps aren't those new Commodore 64's going to be nice, they have pretty good spec's, I can't wait to get one :) They really blow away the Gecko Surfboard. I also am wondering if the new Commodore Operating System, Workbench 5 is linux based.

There is a special and mysterious excitement about the birth of anything new. Whether it's a person, an idea, an invention, a work of art, or a business, the limitless possibilities of the future heighten the thrill of the event. Will the newcomer make any more difference than a thousand or a million others? How much and to whom? For good or ill? Or a little of both?
With about 500,000 new business formations a year, it is inevitable that there will be stillbirths and infant deaths. And inevitably some will come into the business world with a far better chance for survival than others. A few are fortunate enough to spring to life full grown by way of the corporate spin-off route. Sometimes we find these particular ventures (even if they are a little light in the profit department at first) a great antidote to the dreary excesses of corpulent corporate merger hogs.
Take a newcomer expected to arrive by the end of the year. Because it is yet to be formally christened, we call it "Child of Itek." Itek Corp. (in which we hasten to say we own no stock; if we did we would tell you) reported its coming blessed event to our neighbor, the Boston Globe.
Itek itself has an impressive and honorable history as a technology growth company. One part of its business has been in the consumer market, making and selling eyeglass lenses and frames. In the past year or so, this division has not done as well as it used to; after earning about $2 million a year in profits on about $60 million in sales, it lost about $100,000 in 1980.
Itek management apparently made some effort to sell the operation, but concluded after a fair test that its stockholders would do better in another way. It is spinning off $40 million of Itek assets plus at least nine of its own executives into a new company that will start life owned by the same stockholders. The new venture starts with 1,500 skilled employees in plants in North Attleboro, Mass., Reading, Pa., Philadelphia, Pa, and Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
The chairman and chief executive officer of the new firm will be Salvadore Macera, presently running three Itek industrial, governmental, and consumer operations with sales of $175 million."Child of Itek" will start life, he estimates, with sales of $50 million. A step down for an executive vice-president of a $355-million sales company? He surely doesn't sound like he thinks so:
For some time I've wanted to run my own company. I have been deeply involved in working with a team and making joint decisions but now is the time for me to get my name out there and call the shots.
I turned 50 and I remember my father saying that was the time to do something you always wanted to do, and for some time I've wanted to run my own company.
Three other things make us think the Itek stockholders may be unusually fortunate in their management. One is that "Child of Itek" is starting life debt-free; the parent is even keeping for later disposition an overseas plant that has been a cash drain. Another is the explanation for the step given by Itek's chairman and CEO:
It is the kind of business that demands a lot of entrepreneurial techniques that a large corporation is not suited for.
Finally, whatever the outcome, the Itek stockholders who paid for the assets and the seasoning of the management are going to be the beneficiaries of the new entrepreneurial try. No hassle about whether the price paid by an outsider was high or low. No wondering whether the basis of exchange is really fair or whether or not you should tender. No costly legal contests, antitrust headaches, investment bankers, and the rest of the merger noise. No big plant shutdowns, employee layoffs, or management purges. No wondering about whether it's better or worse for insiders, outsiders, arbitrageurs, or sharks. And the ongoing parent management is free to do more of what it thinks it does best.
As for the American economy, it gets what it needs most: another competitive marketplace entrant out to do the best possible job for its customers and stockholders.
Maybe we're missing something but we think this ought to happen much more often than it does.There probably ought to be some more tax incentives to encourage it -- some things that make the creation of a new and independent business by spinoff much more attractive than the tax-free merger or exchange.
We plan to write about "Child of Itek" again, whatever the future brings it. We'd like to hear from readers about other spinoffs, already tried or being considered. Forty million in assets is a bit bigger than those other 500,000 entrepreneurial newcomers. INC. wishes it and all the others the same hearty "Happy birthday and many happy returns of the day!"

Children should be dressed in play clothes that are comfortable, washable, and suitable for all activities, both indoors and outdoors. Parents are encouraged to dress children in closed-toe, rubber-sole shoes to prevent falling and slipping. No flip-flops or Crocs can be worn on climbers.
All children need to have at least one extra set of clothing appropriate to the season that can be kept at school. All clothing should be marked with the child's name.
Rest times are observed in all full-time programs. Although not all children nap, a quiet, restful period is essential to their well-being. Parents are required to provide a cot sheet and small blanket for children in our full-day program. These items will be sent home at the end of each week to be laundered and returned on Monday. Infant/toddler bedding is kept at the center and laundered daily by staff. Please make sure all items are clearly marked.
The Child Development Center provides a rich variety of developmentally appropriate materials, toys and games for the children. We would prefer that children leave personal items at home, with the exception of sleeping toys. It is difficult to be responsible for personal items as they can be easily damaged or misplaced.

REDONDO BEACH, Calif. — A power pole fell on a school bus carrying students with special needs last week. None of the eight passengers on board were injured and the small bus sustained only minor damages.
According to a report in the Daily Breeze, officials say a rearview mirror on the bus may have snagged a support wire for the pole, causing it to break off and fall on the vehicle's roof. The crash caused a brief power outage in the area.
The children, who attend a school for orthopedically disabled students, were evacuated from the bus and taken inside a nearby middle school, where they were evaluated and released.

Combined Opening of the Yachting Season - Close to 300 racing and cruising yachts, motor cruisers, dinghies and multihulls, along with sailing and motoring craft of vintage age, turned out on Hobart's River Derwent this afternoon.
Young crew members of Helsal II salute the Governor of Tasmania as they pass the M.L. Egeria in Hobart's Sullivan's Cove today
Opening Day on the Derwent is a traditional event unique to Hobart that goes back more than 130 years, with club officials describing the turn-out as 'huge'.
'It's the biggest fleet we've seen on the river for Opening Day in many years,' declared Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania Vice Commodore Roger Martin. 'It's a wonderful response by yacht and power boat owners from every major club in Hobart.
'This turn-out today underlines the significance of the sport of boating on the Derwent… there must have been close to 2500 people on board those boats… to my knowledge there is no similar combined sail past on any other major waterway in Australia,' the Vice Commodore added.
The Governor of Tasmania Mr Peter Underwood AC took the salute from the aft deck of this historic motor launch Egeria. Ashore His Excellency announced that he had chosen the yacht Birngana, skippered by Ernest Targett, as his choice as the best presented boat in the sail past and winner of the RYCT trophy.
Yachts taking part ranged from a foiler Moth and the Australian Sharpie class champion One Hump or Two to the prominent racing yachts Voodoo Chile, Auch and Helsal III.
Vintage craft included the 60 year-old cutter Westward, winner of the 1947 and 1948 Sydney Hobart Race, the 97-year-old yawl Gypsy, the restored Tasmanian One Design class yacht Vanity, and the restored racing speedboat Tomboy.
Tomorrow, more than 50 racing yachts are expected to line up for the first race in the Combined Clubs Long Distance Race Series, the 25 nautical mile Channel Race, starting from Castray Esplanade at 9.40am.

Broccoli Saute
When we think of sources of vitamins C if you're like me you probably think of your favorite citrus fruits. But broccoli, believe it or not, actually contains more per serving than an orange. In fact it contains 200 percent of the recommended daily allowance of C.
Many of us have strong opinions about the taste of this vegetable. But like so many of the foods we eat, whether we like it or not can depend on how it's prepared and presented.
This recipe is a combination of unique ingredients. And when the broccoli is added, the flavor is sensational.
To start, just cut the broccoli into bite size pieces. And you'll want to cut enough for about 2 cups. Then remove the peel of an orange with a potato peeler in about 1-inch strips.
Next, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a skillet, add the orange peel and about ' of a cup of nuts, walnuts or pecans either will do. Saut' all of this for two to three minutes over a medium heat and be careful not to overdue it. You want to cook it just long enough for the orange peel to begin to curl and turn golden.
Now I'm ready to add the broccoli. And I will let it saut' for about five minutes. While it's cooking I add ' of a teaspoon of ginger, ' teaspoon of lemon pepper, and about 1 tablespoon of soy sauce. As a final touch, I'll squeeze the juice of the orange over the dish and now it's ready to serve.
From the garden, I'm Allen Smith.

Japanese first to pull HD DVD entirely from stores
updated 03:35 pm EST, Fri February 22, 2008
Japan Pulls HD DVD
Not willing to wait until the official shutdown of production in March, Japanese retail shops are already pulling all their HD DVD drives and movies off of shelves, according to reports. Although less than a week after Toshiba's withdrawal of the HD DVD standard, several high-profile shops such as Edion and Yodobashi Camera have already halted selling either the players or the movies. Most are reportedly in discussions with Toshiba to send back unsold players and, in the case of Edion, are planning exchange programs where customers can potentially receive a Blu-ray player as a free or low-cost exchange for a now-obsolete HD DVD player.
Other stores in the country, such as Bic Camera, are offering heavy discounts. American resellers have historically fared better with HD DVD and are not known to have pulled their HD DVD offerings from shelves, although embattled retailer CompUSA is understood to have discounted Toshiba's inexpensive HD-A3 player from $150 to $90 in an attempt to clear stock.
Although largely born in Japan through Toshiba, HD DVD was more likely to fare poorly in the country, with the format already accounting for less than 10 percent of sales in the three months before Warner Bros.' switch to Blu-ray in January and the resulting rapid decline of HD DVD in the US.

\\ Good Bacteria
GanedenBC30 is the trademarked brand name of the patented bacteria strain Bacillus coagulans GBI-30, 6086. It is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium that, once germinated, produces L+ lactic acid, supporting good bacteria in the gut, displacing non-beneficial bacteria.
A high-survivability probiotic, or good bacteria, GanedenBC30 has many inherent physical properties that make it superior to other traditional probiotic bacteria strains such as lactobacillus, acidophilus and bifidobacteria:
- GanedenBC30 withstands severe manufacturing process. GanedenBC30 has been shown to survive through high temperature processes such as baking and boiling, low temperature processes such as freezing and refrigeration and high pressure applications like extrusion and roll forming. In short, GanedenBC30 is the probiotic that can take it.
- GanedenBC30 has been proven to be extremely hearty and is self-affirmed GRAS for use in food and beverages. Learn more about probiotic foods ».
The spore-forming nature of GanedenBC30 provides superior viability and excellent stability, making it an ideal choice for product development, compared to other probiotic bacteria strains, such as lactobacillus, acidophilus and bifidobacteria.
- GanedenBC30 requires no refrigeration and can be formulated into products to have up to a two-year shelf life.
- GanedenBC30 has been shown to help support the immune system and regulate the digestive system by successfully colonizing the intestines.
- GanedenBC30 is a spore-forming probiotic bacterium. Inside the bacterial cell is a hardened structure, or spore, which is analogous to a seed. This spore safeguards the cells genetic material from the heat and pressure of manufacturing processes, challenges of shelf life and the acid and bile it is exposed to during transit to the digestive system. Once it is safely inside the small intestine, the viable spore is then able to germinate and produce new vegetative cells or good bacteria. Other traditional probiotic organisms, such as lactobacillus, acidophilus and bifidobacteria are not able to form these protective spores, making them vulnerable to heat, pressure, shelf life variables and the acid and bile challenges of the digestive system.

Control of Equine Viral Arteritis In The U.S.
Equine Viral Arteritis (EVA) is a contagious disease of horses caused by the equine arteritis virus (EAV). The disease does not usually kill healthy adult horses, but it can kill young foals and cause pregnant mares to abort. In stallions, the disease can result in the establishment of a carrier state whereby they can continue to spread the virus.
Equine Arteritis Virus is present in many horse populations throughout the world, but an outbreak in U.S. Thoroughbreds in 1984 was the first time the disease received worldwide recognition. This outbreak prompted many countries to impose import controls on the entry of carrier stallions and EAV-infected semen. These foreign import policies have had significant repercussions on the international trade of horses and semen, particularly in the U.S., where we do not have an import control policy for EVA. The U.S. continues to permit the import of carrier stallions and infective semen and certain breeds have been severely affected by these permissive import policies.
Proper management can easily prevent the dissemination of the equine arteritis virus while allowing the continued use of carrier stallions. This is essential to the horse industry because these stallions often represent the best genetics within their respective breeds. In addition, establishing proper management practices ensures that the health interests, as well as the financial interests, of the horse industry are protected.
Over the past decade, numerous U.S. stallions have been unable to be exported to the European Union (EU) because they are known to shed the virus. Surprisingly, many of these same stallions had been imported from the EU as carrier stallions. The EU was permitting the exportation of EAV carrier stallions and infective semen while preventing the importation of these same stallions and semen because of their EAV status.
The AHC has offered several solutions to address these issues. The AHC has sought the input and support of the states in addressing the unknown EAV status of imported stallions and semen and has asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to establish import regulations requiring that the EVA status of stallions and semen be determined upon their entry into the U.S. so that U.S. breeders could take necessary precautions.
USDA Action and Proposals
USDA has published an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) that sought public comment on the best way to regulate the importation of horses in connection with EVA and has produced a Uniform Methods and Rules (UM&R) to guide states and the industry in establishing their own programs for addressing EVA through a common set of methods and rules. The document is now available should States decide to implement preventative steps to address EVA.
However, USDA considers the requirements of the World Trade Organization as a barrier to instituting import regulations for EVA because the disease exists in this country and is not under a domestic control program.
Current Status
The American Horse Council met with staff from the National Center for Import and Export within the Veterinary Services of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service at USDA to pursue the possibility of establishing an import requirement that determines the serological status of imported stallions and the infectivity status of imported semen. The goal is to provide the U.S. importer with knowledge of any potential risk a stallion or the imported semen may carry if used to breed to a susceptible mare. It is not to prohibit entry of either a stallion or imported semen.
Since this meeting, USDA has been developing proposed regulations to establish this import requirement. Once the proposed rule is complete, USDA will publish it in the Federal Register and will allow comments from the public before making it a final rule.
AHC Position
Greater steps must be taken to address the problem of imported stallions and semen whose EAV status is unknown. The AHC will continue to work with the USDA and the states to address the problem of imported EAV-carrier stallions and infective semen and in helping the horse industry learn how to manage these animals in a way that minimizes their risk of exposure.

Bus routes: Vientiane-Phonosvan-Luang Prabang

I am a bit confused about the above bus routes. I have read some posts (from all Forums) that there are busses between the towns, but when looking at the Phonosavan Travel - pages here, I cannot find any info for Phonosavan - Luang Prabang busses. Are there or are there not busses running between these towns?
Is the Vientiane - Phososavan bus a direct bus, or do we need to go via Vang Vieng and change or stop
Also I would like to know a time table for these routes if possible.
I would appreciate any information
Thank you.
PS. I have also posted a similar question to TT (and earlier to TA) but have not yet received a good answer. Perhaps my question is not a good one! :-)

I am answering to my own questions, as I have now gathered information from other forums.
So far as I can can understand the VIP bus drives directly from VTE - Xieng Khouang (Phonosavan). The local bus goes through Vang Vieng. It is 380/400 km journey and takes about 10 hours. VIP bus leaves VTE Northern Bus Station at 7.30 am and costs 130.000 KIP.
Local bus leaves at 6.30 am and costs 100.000 KIP, a/c bus 120.000 KIP.
XK (Phonosavan) - Luang Prabang bus leaves at 8.30, takes about 8 hrs and costs 85.000 KIP. It is a local bus.
If my info is wrong, please correct and update.

Hi rambler,
Sorry missed your earlier question!
Both the VIP and local Vientiane to Phonsavan buses pass through Vang Vieng, but there's no need to change buses.
10 hours sounds about right, but bear in mind Lao bus timetables are estimates.
From our VTE transport page:
"Four buses leave daily for the 10-hour trip to Phonsavan , but only the 7:30 and 19:00 have air-con and cost 100,000 kip. Regular buses to both destinations take about 10 to 11 hours but VIP buses are about two hours faster."
For LP to Phonsavan transport we've got the following:
Xieng Khuang/Phonsavn (local): departs at 08:30, costing 100,000 kip and taking 10 hours.
Xieng Khuang/Phonsavn (VIP): departs at 08:30, costing 115,000 kip and taking 8 hours.
The difference in price isn't substantial, and the trip length is about right, so I'd say you're on the right track.

see the link to VTE northern bus station here:
VTE-Xieng Khouang
ordinary buses 100,000kip: 6:30AM, 9:30AM, 4:00PM
AC buses 120,000kip: 7:30AM, 7:00PM
VIP bus 130,000kip: 8:00PM
for (non-VIP) AC, sometimes the driver turns it on only from about noon onwards.

About 100 undead lurched from the Sydney Town Hall to the Opera House today as part of the city's inaugural Zombie Lurch.More photos here.
Carrying banners that read 'I crave the flesh of the living, and I vote' and 'What do we want? Brains!', the ghouls shambled through the city, watched by police and wary onlookers, to raise awareness of zombie rights.
I would totally join in the Zombie Lurch if they had one in Perth.
Update: God damn it! Why does no one ever tell me when these things are on? I am so out of it. When is the next one?

Pediatric Otolaryngology Clinic
|We evaluated a 5-month-old girl who had been born at 27 weeks of gestation. During her neonatal period, she had experienced chronic lung disease that necessitated 3 weeks of endotracheal intubation. At 3 months of age, she developed progressive biphasic stridor. Flexible bronchoscopy performed by the pulmonology service suggested a possible subglottic stenosis. The patient was referred to the otolaryngology clinic.

|Outcome of primary repair of obstetric anal sphincter rupture using the overlap technique.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 17943465 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|BACKGROUND: Grade III and IV anal sphincter ruptures after vaginal delivery are an increasing problem. We assessed the outcome of an overlap technique in primary repair. METHODS: In this retrospective observational study, from 2002 to 2004, 61 consecutive women with grade III and IV obstetric tears were included. Of the 61 women, 42 had complete rupture of the external sphincter and underwent sphincter repair using standardised overlap technique. The outcome was assessed by clinical examination, Wexner questionnaire, and endoanal ultrasonography (EAUS), after a median follow-up of 9.4 months. Main outcome measure was continence following primary repair. RESULTS: At follow-up, 64% of the patients had no symptoms of anal incontinence. A total of 29% experienced occasional incontinence to flatus, 1 patient (2%) experienced occasional incontinence to liquid stools, and 1 patient to liquid or normal stools. EAUS revealed intact external sphincter in 29 of the 35 patients (83%). In 6 patients (17%), EAUS showed partial discontinuity of the sphincter muscle. CONCLUSION: The results show that the primary overlap technique in the repair of anal sphincter rupture following vaginal delivery is highly successful.

Tell me what you think. It's my first build, so I'm looking for suggestions.
I was considering getting a little SSD for the Os and a few more prominent programs, but it's unnecessary. I don't really need the speed. Boot up time for doesn't bother me that much and I'd probably avoid putting too many programs on it anyway out of fear of overloading it.
Also, I'm trying to figure out the pros and cons of getting an R9 280X or an R9 290. The 290 has 1 more gig of ram, but the 280X has a bit better range on the core clock. There's only about a 20 dollar difference between them, so price isn't an object there.
Side note: I went big on the psu for future upgrades. 850 watts is overkill for this, but it'll be nice to not worry about it in the future.
Cheers, yo.
Link Powerful stuff, man.
I have to write something like 20-25 pages worth of essays for finals this semester. I'm currently on page 7 of a Paradise Lost/Paradise Regained essay.
Not to mention the two creative projects, and the presentations where I have to show that I learned things. Oh, and two actual tests too.
I'm feeling all kinds of things. Much more of this and I'll start to understand the makings of the universe itself.
I noticed there isn't a message board for them....
So I'll just post here. My safari is Rock type - Magcargo, Barbaracle, and Nosepass. Pretty lame, honestly. I do have a team ready for battles. It's nothing special, but it's done quite well against most of my friends considering how little effort I put into it.
Available for trade: 3-5Iv Eevees, Timid or Bold.3-5Iv Scythers, Adamant with Technician. I do have some other stuff, but these are the two that I can easily breed more of. Oh, and I have a shiny Simipour too. I got it for one of the Scythers. It's pretty lame, honestly. Comes with a Water Stone, however.
Also, happy birthday, Dhamps.
In this situation, we were in the middle of combat with a crazy old bard and his pet panther.
Cavalier player: "I'd like to try some diplomacy."Dungeon Master (Insom): "Is diplomacy the name of your lance?"Orc Player (Fault): "I think that's a hint..."
I retuned his lute and the cheeky bastard got a sneak attack off on me with his masterwork short sword. About a minute later, Delkaz/our Barbarian Orc/Fault embedded his axe into the panther, then picked up the panther on his axe and swung it around at the bard. The following turn, our Necromancer Dwarf reanimated it. The bard wasn't too happy about any of this.
And Fault2k. And another dude I don't know. And Insomniac's fiance. It was really fun. We got a lot of stuff done. A lot of stuff. Like, alot.
It was pretty awesome. Don't tell Insom, (and if you're reading this, Insom, omit this from your memory) but I feel like we weren't getting enough experience and we got way too many items over the session. Our first session was something like 5 hours long and we only hit level 2 by the end. On top of that, we got quite a bit of loot. I'll admit that I got the best of the loot because I'm the only dedicated Archer, but still. By the end of the session, I traded out my beginning shortbow for a Composite Longbow that we pulled off a Bandit Leader. Then, not much later I got a Masterwork Longbow and six +1 Animal Bane arrows. So now I'm walking around with two *****ing bows.
I'm not mad, but I feel like it should be balanced a bit. I'm a bard, but I'll be transitioning into the Arcane Archer prestige class as soon as possible (level 6).
Fault went a bit crazy in one fight... He's playing a Barbarian Orc. He crushed a dude with a fallen tree. Literally crushed him. Insom, our Dm, described him as red paint after the log fell. It was already toppled over, and he rolled it over onto the guy, but still. It was pretty badass.
Last thought of the blog: I think I'm in love with my Assistant Manager. She's a fox, we talked about video games for 3 hours today during our shift, and she let me go home early.
Oh, and I started playing Wakfu again. I'm certain none of you play, but you may have heard of the anime. CHECK IT OUT.

Single Review: Archie Bronson Outfit – Shark's Tooth (Domino)
Single Reviews
With an intro that scratches, itches and etches itself firmly into the speakers, 'Shark's Tooth' marks a glorious new direction for Archie Bronson Outfit with third album 'Coconut'.
The dirty blues roots are there, but filtered through the Midas-touch fingers of DFA's Tim Goldsworthy, lending the track a disco-cum-post-punk ethereality and Clinic-esque menace that belies their simpler garage past. Ricocheting guitars duel with ominous handclaps in a sonic distortion of heartstrings and vocals to wrangle out a raw, howling, yet darkly tempered anguish.
There's a cinematic feel of agoraphobia and purgatorial isolation, yet underneath it all a motorik urgency that lends the track easily to the dance floor. Beautiful, dense and intense, 'Shark's Tooth' is as much of a dangerous talisman as the title suggests. EG

Back On The Shelf
Back On The Shelf by Betty Leigh Verbeke
I'd apologize,
But I'm not sorry.
You just weren't what I was looking for.
Yes, I know,
I picked you up.
Out of a row of many books,
I chose you.
But the choice was based purely on your title,
Your author's name,
And your intriguing color.
Yes, I handled you with care.
You felt the support of my palm on your spine,
And the strength of my hand holding you.
I appreciated your cover.
I read your back,
Getting a little preview of what you were all about.
I even read your reviews;
They were great.
While I lightly skimmed your story,
Your edges felt my fingertips.
The smell of my perfume hovered around us.
You felt my warm breath soak through your thin papers,
Beyond the ink printed on the surface.
I read a few lines from page 52,
Then some on page 127,
And part of your last chapter on page 386.
I absorbed your words,
And made an assessment.
I quietly closed you,
And put you in my basket.
I carried you around while I shopped for other books.
I leafed through your companions;
Some of them joined you in my basket.
You saw that I treat all books the same,
With honest care and consideration.
But before I went to the check-out,
I made a second evaluation of my choices.
I picked you up again,
And re-read your back.
Again you felt my hand holding you,
My palm supporting your spine.
Yes, I walked with you,
Pressed between my arm and chest,
A firm grip kept you safe from falling to the floor.
But instead of buying you,
I put you back on the shelf,
In the same place I found you.
Thank you so much for sharing yourself with me,
But you just weren't what I was looking for.

Pedal Set, Will The Mk2 Alloy Pedals Fit The Mk3

Hey guys getting my new titx soon and I asked about getting the sports pedal set but dealer parts can't find them in the accessories section so I'm lookin into whether the mk2 pedals are the same as the new mk3

Sorry to wake an old post but did you ever find out if you can fit Mk2 pedals to a Mk3, I see that the Mk2 pedals say 2007> with no end date (e.g. 2007-2010), dose anyone out there know.. I don't really want to spend 80 odd quid on the off chance
Posted 04 August 2014 - 06:09 PM
simple answer to that one from looking on ebay is no they are totally different in size and shape so no they wouldnt fit by the way the dealer ones are made in china and despite what they charge you they dont cost close to that pick up a set on ebay for around £30
Posted 05 August 2014 - 12:09 AM
If this is talking about the pedal covers then comparing part numbers between the 2008 and 2011 models I'd say there's a good chance the covers swap over.
For the pedal covers the parts listed as 3M51..... are the same as the Mk 2 Focus and in fact go right back to 2003MY (hence the 3 at the start of the part number prefix)
So the clutch pedal cover is the same for all models, and while it looks like the auto and manual pedal covers did get updated for the Mk3 during 2011 you can see that the dates they give don't match up with any of the dates for the pedals themselves being updated - if the new covers had to physically match an updated pedal assembly then the dates would tie up too.
Would make sense that they stick with the same design for something basic like the pedal covers.
No doubt some photos will totally disprove what I've just said above
Posted 05 August 2014 - 03:12 PM
Thanks for the info Comrade Troy, I levered off my pedal rubbers and they have 3M51 on the back so the Mk2.5 kit may fit, but I've ordered a set of sport pedals off eBay (They say are for 2013MY) for 22.59GBP to try out, they are a push fit same as the rubber pads but could be screwed on if taken apart and at that price its worth a try, if only I hade taken the old ones of the Mk2.5 but I thought I hade drilled and screwed them on but that was the Mondeo ones. will keep you posted.. now saving my penny's for the LED Gear Knob

We're continuing our Family Focus series with a look at the importance of preschool.
KSEE24 has teamed up with First Five Fresno County for this "Lifecycle of Literacy" series to demonstrate how each stage of life sets a child up to succeed in school.
For this story, we went to F.I.R.M. Literacy Program in Fresno to talk to experts and parents about why preschool is more important than ever where the kids are learning in a preschool setting.
The difference is they have their parents by their side.
"I definitely think it's important to start reading early and I liked the atmosphere being around other moms with kids the same age," said Parent Jennifer Massinger.
Parents are required to stay with their children and take part in a variety of activities such as storytime, playtime and arts and crafts.
"We want the families to really get in their with their kids, do the activities and show them how important it is to read and understand written word," said Program Director Charlotte Miranda who started the literacy program last summer and already has more than 50 kids enrolled.
Families with kids aged 0-5 sign up for a 12-week program. The day's activities are centered around a book that is read aloud. Parents say they already see a difference in their kids.
"She recognizes a lot of letters now. She recognizes books and she's learned to sit in a social setting with other kids," said Tonya Ferdman, whose daughter attends the program.
Some kids here don't have access to preschool. For those who do, it's an extra opportunity to learn.
"The literacy program is just a natural extension of preschool. The two work hand in hand," said one father knows early literacy gives a child the best shot at succeeding in school and that it doesn't stop here. "I believe it starts at home and it starts early."
Here at FIRM, it's all about getting kids the head start they need before heading off to kindergarten.
"Kindergarten is getting so much more advanced. These kids are expected to know so much more, so if we can give them a jump start that's pretty much why we're doing it," said Miranda.
Best of all, the program is free.
In the next Family Focus, we will take a look at just how much harder it is these days and why preschool is really helping kids to prepare them to be successful.
