Daily News spotlight athletes: Thomas Jefferson's Jason Horan, Elizabeth Forward's Olivia Barkley
TribLIVE Sports Videos
Jason Horan
Year: Senior
School: Thomas Jefferson
Sport: Basketball
Claim to fame: Horan scored 14 points in a 72-66 victory over Erie East in the opening round of the PIAA playoffs Friday. The senior forward helped lead the Jaguars (23-3) against Central Valley Tuesday during the PIAA second round in a rematch of the WPIAL semifinals.
"Jason has really been playing well as of late," coach Dom DeCicco said. "He's a three-year starter and has been solid for us throughout his career. He's been an unsung hero and does a lot of things that usually go unnoticed. He gets a ton of rebounds for us. He has worked hard his entire career, and I am very proud of him."
What do you think has played the biggest role in the team's success this season?
I would say the main thing is that we've all been playing together for many years. We play as a team and not as individuals. That's what has made us successful.
What basketball player would you most like to play with or against?
I would say Michael Jordan because he's a legend. It would be awesome to play with someone like that and learn a few things from him.
What do you feel you bring to each game?
I feel I bring a motivation to the team. I work hard in everything I do and try to bring up the tempo of the game and make sure everyone plays the way we know how to play.
What will you remember most about your years of playing basketball at Thomas Jefferson?
I will remember all of my friends and all of the goals we've worked hard to reach, such as winning the section.
If you were only allowed to eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
That's a tough question. I like a lot of food. I'd have to go with pizza. I really like Italian food, and pizza is a good Italian food.
Olivia Barkley
Year: Junior
School: Elizabeth Forward Sport: Basketball
Claim to fame: Barkley scored 15 points to help the Warriors (21-4) to a 52-30 victory over Bradford in the opening round of the PIAA tournament Saturday. "Olivia has such a big heart," coach Sam Kosanovich said. "She has such a desire to compete. She's 5-9 but plays like she's 6-foot. She comes to practice every day with that blue-collar attitude and sets a good tone for our team. She rebounds the ball and posts up for us really well but also has the versatility to shoot a jumper or drive to the net. She is willing to do whatever we ask of her."
What were your goals coming into this season?
Well, we wanted to make it back to Palumbo for the WPIAL championships, but we fell short. We were able to repeat as section champs, which is something we wanted to do. Now our main goal is to get to Hershey.
Do you feel like you have achieved them?
Not completely. It was a letdown to not beat South Park and not get back to Palumbo, but we can make up for that partially by getting to Hershey.
What do you enjoy doing outside of basketball?
I mostly just hang out with my friends and boyfriend. We watch television and go out to eat and to the movies.
Your coach described you as versatile. Do you prefer posting up inside or shooting and driving to the hoop?
I prefer driving to the hoop to posting up. I'm a little bit smaller so I'm not as comfortable posting up. I've had a little more success driving to the hoop and getting fouled.
What class do you enjoy the most?
I enjoy math a lot. It comes easy to me, and I just perform the best in that class. I'd like to pursue a career in a math-related field.
— Robert Stinner

text: The use of water-soluble pouches for insecticides is not new nor is the idea of packaging those pouches into a flexible envelope. Dow's Dursban insecticide is a good example of the concept (see PW Nov. '94 p. 38). However Kansas City MO-based Bayer Corp. Agricultural Div. was searching for an even more involved package for its new product Premise® 75 Insecticide. Sold only to licensed pest control operators (PCOs) the company's top priorities were user-friendliness and safety. Features such as tamper-evidence reclosability and individual compartments for premeasured packets would eliminate the PCO's need for measuring and protect against moisture. "We really tried to forget everything we knew about packaging and create this envelope from scratch" says Cecil Childers former product manager for Premise 75. Childers says he and packaging designers at Bayer were unaware of the Dursban package at the time of Premise 75's conception. But they had worked with the converter of the Dursban envelope Pactech (Rochester NY) before and they called on the company again for help with the Premise 75 package. Pleased with Pactech's material they next contacted BPS (West Helena AR) to copack their new product. The package starts with Chris Craft's (South Holland IL) Monosol® water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol film. Pouches holding 2.2 oz of powdered product are formed filled and sealed by BPS. The pouches are then inserted into premade laminated envelopes from Pactech. One pouch fits into each of four separate compartments aligned horizontally. BPS currently produces about 7 PVA pouches/shift or 1 envelopes/shift. They're hand-packed into corrugated shippers holding four envelopes and then sent to warehouses or distribution centers. Bayer is keeping its customers including PCOs like the Atlanta-based Orkin Exterminating Co. Inc. happy with the new package. Orkin plans to sell its customers on the premise behind Premise 75: this is the first product of a new chemistry of "termiticides." Premise 75 is the first powdered concentrate says Bayer. It's said to be odorless safe when used near humans and pets and environmentally friendly.

[1847] Common MicroRNA Biomarkers To Characterize Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Jingmei Lin, Zijin Zhao, Noah C Welker, Yunlong Liu, Xinjun Zhang, Jianjun Zhang, Yong Li, Hwa-Jeong Lee, Mary P Bronner. Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN; University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT; Albany Medical Center, Albany, NY
Background: The pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn disease (CD), is integrated from genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. The pathologic diagnosis of IBD can be challenging if the patient presents with fulminant colitis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNAs, which regulate the physiological processes by preventing protein synthesis through posttranscriptional suppression.
Design: This study examines whether common miRNA biomarkers of IBD can be identified and whether they might assist in diagnosing IBD. Illumina small RNA sequencing was performed on nondysplastic fresh-frozen colonic mucosa samples from patients with a diagnosis of IBD (10 UC and 9 CD) and from 18 patients with diverticular disease as "normal" controls.
Results: USeq software was used to identify 9 miRNAs with altered expression in both UC and CD (fold change, ≥2; false discovery rate, ≤0.10) compared to normal controls. Validation assays were performed using qRT-PCR on frozen tissue to confirm the altered expression of four of them (mir-31, mir-206, mir-424 and mir-146a) (P<0.05). Furthermore, the expression of these four microRNAs was evaluated on the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from cohorts of diverticular disease controls (n=15), UC (n=35), CD (n=21) and other diseases that mimic IBD including colonic infection (n=12) and ischemia (n=12). The expression of mir-31 was significantly increased in IBD groups compared to the control and the infections groups (P<0.05).
Conclusions: Our study indicates that mir-31 is commonly expressed in both UC and CD, regardless of the status of inflammation. Furthermore, mir-31 could be used as a valuable ancillary biomarker to diagnose IBD in either fresh-frozen tissue or routinely used formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue.

Maybe this is why we elected the guy sheriff.
Jim Mele, Tuolumne County's top cop since 2006, this week saved taxpayers $175,000 — enough to put three more deputies on the street during these tough times.
So how did the sheriff pull this particular rabbit out of his hat?
He contracted with a private company to run the jail kitchen. Aramark Correctional Services, a nationwide firm that runs kitchens in 600 jails, will do the job for $357,000 a year. Now the Sheriff's Department is paying $532,000 annually to feed its inmates.
Not only that, but Aramark will hire two of the three county cooks whose jobs were on the line and employ the third, who was considering retirement, part time.
Aramark will also run the jail commissary, which supplies inmates with soap. deodorant, snacks, candy and other sundries. That move will save jail staff members four to eight hours a week, time they can better use to monitor and supervise those behind bars.
Picked from several bidders, Aramark will furnish meals at the 140-inmate capacity jail for between $2.18 and $2.65 a meal — a substantial savings over those now provided by the county staff.
One source of savings is obvious: "We buy loaves of bread by the dozen; they buy them by the million," said Mele, citing an "economy of scale" that translates into tens of thousands in savings. Lower salary and benefit costs and continued use of inmates in the kitchen will save more yet.
Aramark's three-year contract begins Feb. 1, and Mele said the transition will be "seamless" and the quality of food consistent.
But it will end an era of county food preparation that began in the 1850s and ran through dozens of sheriffs. In fact, Mele said, legendary Sheriff John Henry Dambacher's wife cooked for the bootleggers and bandits he kept behind bars during the Depression.
But moving to private operation is an idea whose time has come. "These days it's important for those in government to make good business decisions," understated Mele.
Mele hired a firm that specializes in a needed service and, free of regulations that often encumber government, can provide it more efficiently and economically. In doing so, he followed an example the county set in contracting out services earlier provided by Tuolumne General Hospital.
And the sheriff may not be done yet.
"We're looking at every contract and service to see if there is a better and cheaper way to do it," said Mele.
With even tougher times ahead, pointed out Tuolumne County Supervisor Dick Pland, "this is exactly the type of thing we are going to have to do at all levels."

|The Pocketcomb Pimp
|Where to buy:
|DVD New
|DVD Rent
Reviewers Note: In the interest of full disclosure it is important to note that I produce a series of amateur titles. My work is completely unrelated to the mainstream adult industry but I still feel it is important to mention.
Quick Hit:
Killer Girp#2 for me was another one of those porns that lives off it's catchy name alone. Zora Banx directs this disc of Euro Girls and their hand antics. If you are into the Euro Girl look this disc might be for you. If you are into really good hand jobs it probably isn't.
Pretty standard Fare as far as DVD layout goes. Video quality is up to par, layout is clear and concise, navigation is straight forward. Extras include BTS, Photos, and previews.
Scene 1: Kitty Six
Kitty Six is a tall blonde with a nice rack, she starts out this disc with a moderately exuberant tug job. Her look of disinterest at some points seems to stage the stage for things to come.
Scene 2: Claudia Ferrari
Claudia is a spicy brunette with a euro Betty Page thing going on. Her stick shellackin is punctuated by long stares and Ridiculous expressions. Not sure what the directors was going for but erotic was way off the mark. The pseudo foot job saved this scene in the end.
Scene 3: Honey Winter
Keeping with the disinterested them, Honey does her best at forgetting she even has a cock in her hand. Long stares into the camera and a lackluster pop shot make this my least favorite scene on the disc.
Scene 4: Gloria Venus
Gloria steps up to the plate, finally we get to some good stroke action. She is the first girl on the disc to actually look at what she is doing and avoids looking like she doesn't want to be there. In the end we are treated to a decent cum shot on some nice natural breasts.
Scene 5: Evelin, Kati
A double jerk from two only slight attractive tarts. Big props to the male talent on this one for maintaining an erection as both girls hardly tug on it all. Mr. Money shot here somehow manages to get one off even though he is only treated to a rub job.
Scene 6: Jenny Sanders
Jenny is undoubtedly the hottest girl on the disc. She has a blonde baby doll look about her with an adorable smile. Her tackle tugging technique is rather nice, my only criticism again is the fake looks into the camera. At this point I am starting to realize the director is calling for this and none of these girls can pull it off.
Scene 7: Lilit
Lilit has a super tight body with the cutest little ass. She gives a good rub down and even gets creative with some unorthodox pud pullin positions. We are not given a reprieve from the blank stares into the camera but Litlit's frame is a good distraction.
Scene 8: Vanda
If someone were to tell me that this was Vanda's first rip and pull on a cock I would not be surprised. In fact the only thing that kept me from hittin the FF button is this girls incredible smile. And wouldn't you know it, she of all the girls looks into the camera the least.
Scene 9: Betty, Thundy
Another double tug job. Have to caution you on this one, a large part of this scene is filmed from the cocks point of view. Which I guess is great if you are looking for gay tug jobs. I am not so this scene went straight to the finale for me.
Scene 10: Rikka
In AL my years of watching adult this is the first time I have ever scene actual livestock in a film. Don't get excited the horse in opening does not get a tug job, but something tells me is he did that Rikka would be looking into the camera with that glossed over disinterested attempt at aroused.

I suspect many readers consider bird watchers as mostly little old ladies in tennis shoes marching determinedly along forest trails with binoculars and occasionally shouting "Look, on that limb. It's a fat-bellied beer sipper."
Actually, nothing could be further from the truth. Bird watchers come from all walks of life and might be any age or either sex. But they love their birds, spending an average of $4 billion a year just to feed wild ones and another billion on bird feeders, bird baths, and bird houses.
In total, some estimates calculate 46.7 million Americans consider themselves ...

Myths About Deaf or Hard of Hearing People
We all think we know what it would be like to be deaf or hard of hearing, and sometimes our assumptions can hurt and discriminate against those who are deaf or hard of hearing. Understanding the truth behind myths surround those who are deaf and hard of hearing can reduce the misunderstandings between a hearing and a deaf person.
Deaf or hard of hearing people are often misunderstood when it comes to communications available with and between them. Many of us hearing people cannot understand why certain deaf person cannot comprehend our lip movements, or believe that one deaf or hard of hearing person can communicate with another from a different country easily.
Here are some of the myths regarding deaf and hard of hearing people:
All deaf and hard of hearing people can communicate with sign language
This is the most common myth of all. Not all deaf and hard of hearing persons can communicate in sign language. Many who are born deaf depends on their parents to teach them sign language. Unfortunately if they are born to hearing parents, they are sometimes forced to live a life like a hearing person simply because their parents cannot understand why they must learn sign language. They are given hearing aids, they are sent to normal school where they may have difficulty in social groups and most of all, they are forced to lip read so that their parents don't have to learn the sign language themselves.
Sign language is just mime and gestures
A sign language is just like any spoken languages, there are words and unique expressions as well as sentence structure and grammar.
Sign languages are all the same worldwide
Languages are developed throughout different regions in the world and many of us are used to the concept that we all speak different languages. However when it comes to sign language, some of us simply cannot grasp the concept that the languages are in fact also different between region to region just as any speaking languages.
Therefore, it is easy to assume any deaf person meeting another in the world can communicate easily with each other. This is not so. Sign languages also differ from country to country, and signed used for the same things may not be the same from Australia to America for example. In Australia the official sign language is Auslan. There is an International Sign Language however, it still need to be learnt even if someone knows Auslan.
All deaf people can lip read
Lip reading is a skill that requires training and practice, and not all deaf people are capable of lip reading. Only about 30% of the spoken words can be lip read due to their phonetic uniqueness and lip reading other words become a guess work.
Those who are born deaf find it more difficult to learn lip reading because in a deaf person's world, the spoken languages are essentially their second language, therefore they will require the understanding of the spoken language before they can learn how to lip read.
Deaf people can always learn how to speak
Learning to speak requires understanding of the word phonetics and sound, and this is near impossible for a deaf or hard of hearing person to fully grasp. Some do learn to speak if they are introduced to speech at a young age, or that they have lost their hearing later on in their lives.
Being deaf or hard of hearing is indications of less intelligence
Some people think the lack of ability to hear means a lack of ability is many other things. However, this is not an indication a person who is deaf or hard of hearing is less intelligent than any hearing persons. They may have difficulty in acquiring speech simply because they cannot hear the sounds and tones, but many deaf and hard of hearing people are employed in professional careers just like everyone else.
Deaf and hard of hearing people will be able to hear with hearing aids
Hearing aids are a great technological invention, it does help those whose hearing have reduced due to age and accidents, however for a person who is medically or naturally deaf and hard of hearing, having a hearing aid does not guarantee an ability to hear.
Hearing aids only amplify the sounds surrounding the person wearing it, and sounds can come through digitally and interfered with other sounds that may be present. This means what the deaf or hard of hearing person hears from hearing aids will not be the same as a hearing person would sense and sometimes, all they can hear are muffles as hearing aids does not improve clarity of the sounds.
All deaf people can read so there is no barrier to communication
As stated in a previous point, the words and art of the spoken languages are second language to a deaf person. Being able to read requires the same amount of learning just like a hearing person, and as sign languages often bare slightly different sentence structures and grammar, a deaf and hard of hearing person often will find it hard to read and comprehend fully without extensive practice.
Deaf families will always have deaf children
It is known in the scientific world that human genes are a pool of complicated mix matches. In fact, only about 10% of deaf children have deaf parents.
Deaf people can tolerate noise better than hearing people
Being deaf does not mean their entire world is silent. It is rare for a deaf or hard of hearing person to be completely lack of hearing and often, they are able to pick up noise and high pitched sounds. This can be extremely distracting and uncomfortable as it is hard to distinguish the meaning of the sound and it becomes pure noise.
It is important to understand the deaf and hard of hearing communities to be able to integrate and work with them. Understanding that they are just people with a difference in abilities will reduce the misunderstanding and prejudice that can occur between people who can hear and deaf or hard of hearing people.

hello i was born hard of hearing and learn to lip-read from school sign languages was not allowed in my school day but today i think it good for deaf to used sign languages so every one can enjoyed to talk with each other , it not easy to be deaf person , we go through a lot of things around in this world and hearing people too , when i was in age 30 i lost more hearing and become more deaf than ever before but i made it through as i was lucky enough to lip-read in my early age and also i can sign as well , it sad that many people dont understand how we feel to get through with hearing people who dont have time to learn to sign languages , not all hearing people not willing to learn but they can do it any time ,we are sick, we are deaf and we have wonderful talents and pretty good with our talents and if hearing people can pay attention to us deaf more then we can understand with each others better , i am proud of being deaf in my life but there were time i get feel left out now and then but never give up at all , i wish people accept us for who we are, not looking down at deaf people , they can make a wonderful friends to you , thank you alison

Alison, I like what you have said here. I am a hearing person who is learning ASL so I can communicate better with the Deaf community. I have found quickly that Deaf people are not people to look down on in any way, but they tend to have an understanding about life and the world around them that few hearing people could ever imagine. In fact, when I am around Deaf people I often feel incredibly inferior. It is a a strange feeling because throughout my life I have been a a social alfa male and have always taken on positions of high-level leadership in work situations. Deaf people are in a very small group of people who unfailingly intimidate me on some level. In my understanding, Deaf individuals tend to endure an incredible amount of adversity, and it is generally those types of people that are the most brilliant and majestic. I have a feeling that Deaf people quickly develop a sense of self-awareness and understanding that hearing people never find, or spend a large amount of their lives searching for

Hempfield's 'Tornado boy' makes a name on diamond
TribLIVE Sports Videos
It was more than two years ago, in a time of suffering, one Hempfield boy took on the persona of "Tornado Boy."
But now, Tyler Tubbs, a senior pitcher for the Spartans baseball team, has made a name for himself in a different area.
Tubbs, during the early signing period last week, signed a letter of intent to play baseball at Pitt-Johnstown. The right-hander, who hopes to enter the lineup as a starting pitcher, finished his junior year 3-1 with a 1.35 ERA and 31 strikouts in 26 innings.
"I was really excited to play for Pitt-Johnstown next year. I'm really honored to play baseball in college," Tubbs said. "I was looking at a wide variety of schools, but it was a unanimous decision for me. It was a nice place and had a good major for me. It just felt right."
Tubbs will decide between either civil or mechanical engineering.
Many also will remember Tubbs for another reason.
On March 23, 2011, a F2 tornado made a rare appearance and ripped through Westmoreland County. As a 15-year-old, Tubbs captured the event through his iPod camera in a 90-second video.
With easy access to different social media portals, Tubbs uploaded the video on YouTube. Within a short time, Tubbs' life changed.
"Tornado Boy" was fielding media requests from radio stations and television programs, including CNN newscasts, ABC's "Good Morning America," and A&E's "Disaster Guy." Tubbs also made appearances on Fox News, The Weather Channel and MTV Canada.
What was the best interview for a teenager that is locked in social media, you may ask?
"I would probably say Skyping with CNN," Tubbs said. "It was pretty cool being on television live on Skype."
Reflecting on the experience, Tubbs discovered one positive that came out of all that notoriety.
"It made me feel like I had a responsibility," Tubbs said. "I had a responsibility to sell T-shirts and help raise money to help those affected by the tornado."
After all the hype died down, Tubbs was able to be a regular teenager and focus on getting better on the diamond.
Tubbs was part of a Spartans team that went 20-5 last season and qualified for the PIAA playoffs after defeating Pine-Richland in the WPIAL Class AAA consolation game.
In his final season at Hempfield, Tubbs is looking to improve personally and also believes the Spartans can return to the state tournament.
"I'm trying to get stronger and also trying to improve my velocity on all my pitches," Tubbs said. "A lot goes into that and getting better."

Julie Hein, 45, of West Manchester Township, will be heading to the Farm Show this weekend hoping for a win, too.
She's hoping to take the $500 grand prize for her angel food cake. New to the cake competition this year will be Old Fashioned Fudge and Cupcake contests, joining old standbys like the Blue Ribbon Apple Pie and PA Preferred Chocolate Cake contests.
Hein placed first at the York Fair for her banana split angel food cake entry, which allowed her to advance to the Farm Show in that category.
"I'm a lot more confident in my chocolate cake than in my angel food cake," said Hein. "I have not been practicing. Until the holidays were over I couldn't really practice."
Hein will deliver her cake Sunday, and it will be judged at noon with more than 75 other entries. After the cakes are judged and a winner is chosen, the entries are cut into slices and handed out to the audience, said Hein.
"I love to make cake and I love to eat cake, but I'm definitely more of a baker than a chef. I don't enjoy cooking dinner at all," she said.
-- Reach Chelsea Shank at 505-5432 or firstname.lastname@example.com

Manly is most notable for its beaches which are popular tourist destinations. Manly features a long stretch of sand on the ocean side, that runs from Queenscliff Beach to North Steyne Beach and Manly Beach. This is followed by rock pools and sandy beaches called Fairy Bower and Shelly Beach. There are also a number of beaches on the harbour side of the peninsula. Norfolk Island pine trees are also symbolic of Manly and are a prominent feature of both the ocean and harbour beaches.
On 10 March 2012, the 4-kilometre (2.5 mi) stretch between Freshwater Beach and Shelly Beach was declared the "Manly -Freshwater World Surfing Reserve". The Reserve was dedicated in a ceremony in Manly Beach by world surfing champion Kelly Slater
It has great shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels all within walking distance.
Manly is one of Australia's most popular tourist destinations. Considered the gateway to Sydney's beautiful Northern Beaches, it offers a wide variety of unique attractions and activities for people of all ages.
'7 Miles from nowhere and 1000 miles from care' was the slogan used by the Port Jackson & Manly Steamship Company in 1940, and it's still the best way to describe this idyllic destination.
Every weekend, people from all over Sydney make the pilgrimage to Manly for a great day out. The Manly ferries from Circular Quay disgorge thousands of tourists at the Manly Wharf several times a day, and the roads leading to the Northern Beaches are noticeably clogged most weekend mornings with those eager to explore everything that Manly has to offer. And with good reason. It's just a fantastic spot. Unlike the cosmopolitan, slightly more socially upmarket Eastern suburbs beach venues, Manly has a laid back, casual, friendly atmosphere that welcomes everyone.
As a local, I'd like to help you plan your days with 10 things that I think you should do in Manly.
1. Manly OceanWorld
2. Hugo's Manly
3. Manly Wharf Bar
4. Manly Saturday Markets
5. Manly Bike Tours
6. Garfish Restuarant
7. The Steyne Hotel
8. Le Kiosk at Shelly Beach
9. Manly Kayaks
10. Walk through the Manly Corso

German entrepreneur Lars Hinrichs has pulled the plug on his HackFwd accelerator. But rather than retreat in silence, Mr. Hinrichs, who founded Xing AG — a sort of German LinkedIn Corp. — in 2003, has put up a great blog post that provides a feast of links to some of the lectures and talks the accelerator has hosted.
Mr. Hinrichs invested about "8 million" (he doesn't say what currency, but probably either dollars or euros) of his own money that came from the sale of his stake in Xing in 2009 to the German media group Hubert Burda Media. He set up the accelerator three years ago to help foster coders to build companies.
But, he said times had changed, and: "There are literally thousands of accelerators; so many that I often wonder if there are more accelerators than angels and more angels than there are entrepreneurs."
While general tech accelerators modelled on the likes of Y Combinator or 500 Startups are relatively common, there is an emerging trend in the growth of more specialist programs focussing on one sector. The announcement of the pairing up of two German industrial giants to fund a new program in Berlin is proof that it is no longer confined to tech companies.
German industrial giants Bosch GmbH and Mercedes Benz have teamed up with an industrial insurance company HDI Gerling and startup accelerator Startupbootcamp to create a new accelerator in Berlin, according to Alex Farcet of Startupbootcamp in a blog post.
Central Europe has had its share of successful start-ups but hasn't seen the sort of ecosystem that's developed in the U.K. and Germany. Some of the region's accelerators were in London's Tech City to put their entrepreneurs in front of London's investors at Google Campus.
After pitches from Vilnius, Lithuania-based Startup Highway and Huge Thing, based in Poznan, Poland, the heads of the two accelerators, Rokas Tamosiunas from Startup Highway and Arkadiusz Hajduk from Huge Thing, sat down to talk about the ecosystem east of the Oder-Neisse.
Mr. Tamosiunas said places like Estonia had done a great job in demonstrating its success, but "in Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus, we have not done anything like as good a job in saying what is going on. That doesn't mean there isn't anything, just we don't sell it as well."
According to Mr. Hajduk, one of the strengths of the whole region, which perhaps goes back to the Soviet era, is its ability to find a way through.
"We have a word in Polish — kombinować – it's not really translatable, but it sort of means finding a way to do something but without a lot of resources."
Tech Europe covers Europe's technology leaders, their companies, and the people and industries that support them — and their ideas. The blog is edited by Ben Rooney, with contributions from The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires.

TPIR: Well, it's not the worst week I've seen, since we've already had two big winners to start the week, and we just had a $21,100 Plinko winner yesterday. Why I'm complaining is that they have not given away a single car this week (assuming you don't consider trailers cars), and this is the last day of the week. If no car is given away today, I believe we will have a "historic moment" that nobody wants to have happen. Let's hope that dubious honor doesn't happen.
We begin with Remi Gangarosa, Irene, Marc Goody and Joseph Vega. First IUFB is tailgating stuff.
Joseph: $850
Marc: $1,000
Irene: $750
Remi: $935
ARP: $890, so Vega will play Any Number for an armoire or a Jeep Wrangler (Std., Paint, AC, HTop, Heater). First number in the Jeep price is 2. First number guess is 3...last number of the piggy bank ($ _. _ 3). Second is 9....that's a nine dollar piggy bank today. Third is 6...the armoire's at least $600 today. Fourth is 8...last number of the armoire
($ 6 _ 8). Fifth is 1, the second number of the Jeep
($ 2 1, _ _ _). Sixth is 4...middle number of the Jeep ($ 2 1, 4 _ _). Seventh is 5...he wins just $9.53. The random number strategy didn't work for him today. The ARP of the Jeep was $21,420 and the armoire was $678. I think Roger wanted the armoire won today, not the piggy bank.
Next player is Randell and the second IUFB is kayaking equipment.
Randell: $850
Marc: $975
Irene: $950
Remi: $951
ARP: $1,077, so Goody plays Danger Price for a stereo system, dinette, garden tools and a laptop. The Danger Price is $634. First pick is the computer, which is $1,517. Second is the garden tools....game over. The dinette was $1,099 and the stereo was $800.
Next is Sherri Smith and the third IUFB is digital photo frames.
Sherri: $550
Irene: $650
Remi: $499
Randell: BUCK
ARP: $630, so Smith plays Magic Number for a tea set and a plasma TV. She sets her magic number at $749....NO FREAKIN' WAY. The TV was $2,698 and the tea set was $1,425. And she gets to the Showcase. Darn.
Next is Kenneth Mirada and the next IUFB is a bubble chair.
Kenneth: $865
Irene: $500
Remi: $591
Randell: $1,400
ARP: $2,930, so Randell, a student from SDSU, plays Pathfinder for a Dodge Avenger (Std., Sport, Stereo, Mouldings, Mats, Video). Board:
I think the car's $21,830, but I'm not totally sure. For the second number, she steps to the 1, which of course is right ($ 2 1, _ _ _). For the third number, she steps to the 7, which is wrong. She chooses the utensils, which are either $20 or $30. She goes with $30...no. She then tries the tool kit, which is either $50 or $65. She says $50...right. She then steps to the 8 as the third number...right ($ 2 1, 8 _ _)! She then steps to the 3 as the fourth number....YES ($ 2 1, 8 3 _)! Please, baby, step to the 0 as the last number......
Now that we got that big monkey off our backs, we shall move on like normal. The next player is Cindy Demeer and the next IUFB is baby furniture.
Cindy: $1,250
Kenneth: $1,340
Irene: $1,354
Remi: $1,370
ARP: $2,425, and Gangarosa will play Now or Then for a spa worth $5,094. Then today is August 1998. First selection is Hill Bros. Coffee marked at $3.97 and he says Then...right! He can win if he's right on the cleaner and the yams, the cleaner and the Nutramist, or the Nutramist and the dog food. He decides to go with the Clorox spray, marked at $3.39, and he says Then again...no. Next, he goes for the NutraMist marked at $7.99 and he says Now, which is right. The dog food will decide his fate. Does he say Now with a price of $4.49....NO! Too bad.
The last player is Sienna and the final IUFB is a pair of mountain bikes.
Sienna: $1,400
Cindy: $1,275
Kenneth: $1,360
Irene: $850
All are over.
Sienna: $800
Cindy: $725
Kenneth: $730
Irene: $795
ARP: $795, so not only does Irene not go to the First Four Breakfast Club, she wins a $500 bonus! She then plays for a trip to Singapore in Double Prices. It's either $7,896 or $8,931. Toss-up, indeed. She decides to pick $8,931, thus shooting for the stars...and we have another winner!
SSD2: The only loser this half spins 80 cents. Irene spins 80 cents as well. Now, for Randell. She spins 55...and goes over. But she's done her job already, so that's perfectly fine with me! Spin-off time. The man spins 50....while Irene gets a nickel more than him, so she's in the Showcase!
The first Showcase features weird ways to test scientific theories and laws. First, the Law of Gravity was somehow tested by having people jump non-stop on a new trampoline with a basketball hoop. Second, the saying that the Earth was round was tested by having people see some of it while on a Mediterranean Cruise! Finally, the saying "every action has an equal and opposite reaction" could be learned while driving a new 2008 Chevy Suburban (Std., Seat, Speakers, Crossbars)! Irene bids $43,750, which is a GARF, since that only covers the car. For Sherri, we have an arcade game, a bar set, a bed and a refrigerator/freezer, and she bids $12,420, which is a GARF as well.
ARP for her: $19,292, a difference of $6,872. ARP for Irene: $52,463, which is not quite enough, so Smith sadly wins and takes home $19,922 in prizes. Irene leaves with $9,726.
But Randell is the day's big winner with $24,810! After what she did today, she deserves to be it!
Crosswords: It's the old gameplay rules today, and we start with Mark Pasquale (a magician from Ohio) and Melissa Okey (a Canadian teacher). At the first Extra, the teacher's in control with $300 to the other's $100. She goes for the full $500:
Clue: American Top 40 entry. She goes with SONG, which is right to go to $800! At the end of the round, she has $1,200 and a trip to S.F., while the man has $350.
Today's Spoilers are Amy Englehart (from N.J.), Isabel White (from California)....AND FROM NORTH CAROLINA, BEST KNOWN FOR WORKING AT TNA WRESTLING, "THE FALLEN ANGEL" CHRISTOPHER DANIELS!!!
1. (_ O A _)- It's half the faun. The Canadian says GOAT...correct to go to $1,400!
2. (_ E _ _ E T)- Bewail. The wrestler's going for a spoil, folks! He says REGRET...no need to do so, because he's right for $1,600! Also, a trip to Reno is placed in the bank he just stole!
3. (_ _ T I R)- Up and buzzing about. He says ASTIR...and he's right for $1,800!
4. (Four-lettter word)- Roughen, as lips. He gets CHAP to go to $2,000!
5. (_ _ _ P)- Gradually leak through small openings. Daniels goes with SEEP...I'm wrong and he's right again to go to $2,200 (I would've said DRIP)!
6. (_ _ _ A)- Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist. Daniels says FLEA...now at $2,400!
7. (_ _ _ _ _ F S)($300)- Overtimes, in elections. This time, the magician rings in with RUNOFFS...done a lot in Florida during the 2000 U.S. Presidential elections, that's correct to go to $650!
8. (_ _ _ _ O _)- Margay's spotted kin. Total Stumper- it was OSOLOT.
9. (Five-letter word)- Not chronic, medically. The Canadian tries to get her podium back with ACUTE...right she is for $2,600!
10. (_ A _ _ _)- _____-Dixon Line. She gets MASON no sweat to go to $2,800!
11. (M _ _ _ _)- Subject you see again and again in an artistic work. She goes with MODEL...incorrect. Englehart has a chance to steal her cash and trips with MOTIF...right!
12. (T U _ _ _ _ _ _)($300)- Kind of salad or sandwich. Englehart goes with TUNA FISH...I love these types of sandwiches since I was a baby, and that's correct for $3,100!
13. (Four-letter word)- Clever maneuver. The wrestler tries to get the lead back with MOVE....NO. It was PLOY.
14. (Five letters)- Diamonds and other shiny jewelry, in hip-hop slang. Englehart says BLING...and here's $200 more for her in bling-bling! And she gets a chance at the second Extra today, and she decides to risk $1,300:
Clue: Baker-Charlie precursor. She has nothing, so she's down to two grand. Answer: ABEL.
16. (Nine-letter word)($300)- Big sandwich. Pasquale says SUBMARINE...that's correct to go to $950!
17. (_ _ B _ _ _)- Crue, or bringing a blush to the cheeks. Nobody gets RIBALD.
18. (Six letters)- Kissin' kin. Pasquale says COUSIN...that means he ends the round with $1,150!
1. (_ N _ _ _)- Give qualities to. Englehart says ENDOW...incorrect. For a spoil, the Canadian says ENACT...also not it. It was ENDEW.
2. (Six letters)- Presuppose. Englehart says ASSUME...she gets the $200 back!
3. (Four-letter word)- Gravy spoiler. The magician tries LUMP...it sure is to go to $1,350!
4. (_ _ _ P)- Kind of ladder used around the house. Englehart knows about the STEP ladder to go to $2,200.
5. (Four-letter word)- Jack stuffed in your car's trunk. Englehart rings in, but takes too long, as does the magician. That means White has a free shot at it with TIRE...and she's right to steal the $2,200 and the trips!
6. (Six letters)- She's a real doll who hasn't aged much since 1959. The magician knows it's BARBIE to get the lost $200 back.
7. (_ _ B _ _ _ _)($300)- Middle Eastern leader beginning in 1981. White says ABBASS (?!?!?!!?)....ZONK ANSWER OF THE WEEK NOMINEE. It was MUBARAK, and she drops to $1,900.
8. (Five-letter word)- Life-giving acid. Pasquale says AMINO...$1,550!
9. (_ _ _ _ O _)- Bird in a Kesey title. He goes with CUCKOO...that's right for $1,750! The next correct answer given by the magician could give him the lead! He could get it with the day's last Extra. He wagers a grand. For the lead:
The clue is...official residence provided by a church. He....draws a blank. Darn. He's all but out of this game now at $750. Answer: RECTORY.
11. (Three letters)($100)- First of three on a straight line, in a child's game. Pasquale says TIC...right for $850.
12. (Three-letter word)($100)- Dutch or Siberian tree. White says ELM...right to go to $2,000.
13. (Four-letter word)- Abnormal vesicle. White says LUMP...uh, no. It was CYST, and she drops to $1,800.
14. (Four-letter word)- Piece that may be on a roof, floor, wall or board. The man says TILE...and he's right to go to $1,050.
Final clue (Four-letter word)- Royal Crown product. White says CUPS, which is incorrect. The man steals with COLA to go to $1,250, but it's too little, too late, as White wins the game, $1,600 and both mini-vacations. Christopher, it's been a pleasure having you on something other than wrestling. Good luck to you!
Crossfire: If White can fill in the remaining 17 blanks, she'll add $2,000 and a trip to Cabo San Lucas...it doesn't happen.
WOF: Tonight's players are Dave Wolfe from Oakdale, PA (a graduate research student in Criminal Justice; he's also a professional darts player), Cristi Winkler from West Bend, WS (who is an administrative assistant) and Lindsey Brunner from San Diego (who is a senior at UCSD majoring in marketing).
Tonight's male player gets WILE E. COYOTE for a grand and then triples that after solving PET OWNERS.
After a trip to Phoenix worth $5,700 is put on the wheel, Round 1's category is Place...and it's tonight's Prize Puzzle! Winkler calls an S for the $10,000! At that point, we have...
...I only have the bottom word right now. She calls a $500 M and buys the O. Next, she calls two C's for $800 more and the L for another $300. After a $600 R, she solves DRAMATIC COASTLINE for $12,100 and a trip to Bermuda, for a total of $17,800!
Os-Cal Jackpot Round category is Song Lyrics. After Brunner buys the I's, we have...
...I know it. She calls a $450 G and buys the O and the U. Afterwards, she calls a $3,500 R and buys the E's. Then, she calls the Y's for another $600 and buys the A's, and then calls the D for the 25 prize- $2,500 from LowerMyBills.com. She then solves I'M EASY LIKE SUNDAY MORNING for $8,800!
Big Money Round category is Food & Drink, and it's a fairly big puzzle. At the start, Brunner calls two R's for the Arizona trip. She then calls three L's for $10,500 and buys four E's and three A's, but she then hits Bankrupt. Too bad. Later on, Winkler calls two N's for the Wild Card, but she loses it to a Bankrupt fairly quickly. After Brunner calls the P's, we have...
...it took me a while, but I've got it. She then calls two K's for $600 and the Free Spin, and then the Y for another $300. She then solves SKIPPY AND SMUCKER'S ON WHOLE WHEAT BREAD for another $4,300, bringing her to $13,100!
The man then solves MINI-CHOPPER to go to $6,000. Speed-Up Round category is Phrase and consonants are worth $1,600 each. After the man calls the L's, we have...
...he then solves TAKING IT ALL IN STRIDE to finish in second with $14,800! Everybody did OK tonight! Brunner has $13,100 and Winkler wins with $17,800!
She spins the dollar sign and the category is Food & Drink. Starting with:
I know it already, and apparently Winkler does too! She calls C, K, P and U and gets...
...she read my mind- she gets the condiment best made by Heinz- KETCHUP! That wins her $30,000 and $47,800 overall, meaning for the third time in six weeks, we have a 4 out of 5 bonus round week!
1 vs. 100: Tonight's featured player is Joe Lorenzo from Brooklyn. When gameplay was halted last week, he had just reached the $25,000 mark with 60 people left in the mob. All of his helps are still alive. He also has a lucky towel in his shirt for good luck, as well. We resume with this question:
As you look straight ahead at the Apple, Inc. logo, from where has someone taken a bite?
A: The right side
B: The left side
C: The top
I had no idea, but apparently he does, as he goes with the right side...right on all accounts! He knocks out 14 to double up to $50,000! Next:
At the farmer's market, the farmer's daughter offers you a nice pear. What is she selling you?
A: A McIntosh
B: A Valencia
C: A Bartlett
My gut was Valencia, since I have A ruled out. He disagrees with me and says a Bartlett...yes! Only two missed that. Next up:
The 1990 album "Because It's Christmas" was recording by what singer who's actually Jewish?
A: Lance Bass
B: Bruce Springsteeen
C: Barry Manilow
He goes with my slight gut of Manilow...right to knock out eight more people and go to $75,000! This next question might remind you of a $50,000 question earlier this season on "Millionaire". Here it is:
Which is NOT a flavor of Kellogg's Pop Tarts?
A: Frosted Strawberry Milkshake
B: Frosted Banana Cream Pie
C: Frosted Caramel Chocolate
I have A ruled out. He's stumped, so he trusts the mob on Banana Cream Pie.....
...RIGHT! 14 missed that, so he's at $100,000! Next question:
Geographically speaking, what is a correct alternate title for "Pirates of the Caribbean"?
A: Pirates of the Eastern Hemisphere
B: Pirates of the Northern Hemisphere
C: Pirates of the Southern Hemisphere
He polls the mob on the South...only five said that. He then realizes in his mind, it's a toss-up between the North and the South. He goes with Pirates of the Northern Hemisphere. If he's right, he's got at least $250,000.....
...YES! Seven missed that, meaning he's at $250,000 and is five people away from the $500,000 mark! He decides to.....
...go on! Next question, possibly for $500,000:
The 13th Amendment- which abolished slavery- was finally ratified by which state in 1995?
A: Mississippi
B: Missouri
C: Kentucky
He wisely asks the mob. #63, Julia, thinks it's Mississippi, but isn't 100% sure. #5, Patty, thinks it's Kentucky because Mississippi and Missouri are in the deep south and she thought those two states were illogical in doing such a thing. His final guess is Kentucky......
...NO- HE'S THE SECOND-BIGGEST LOSER EVER ON THE SHOW. Ouch. And what's even worse- HE MISSED OUT ON $500,000!!! Double ouch. Ten people get 25 grand apiece.
Sarah Greene will be next week's first contestant. When time ran out on her tonight, she had 27 people remaining and thus got to $100,000. Early in her game, she KOed what I believe was a record 49 mob members on one question just to get to $50,000! Only the polling help is gone.
How Much is Enough?: We have Mariani (a flight attendant from Chicago), Dawson (a real estate investor from Seattle), Patty (a life coach from Muskogee, OK) and Ed (from Toledo,OH) as the players tonight.
Mariani: $529
Dawson: $582
Patty: $466
Ed: $691
Mariani: $865
Dawson: $1,120
Patty: $1,055
Ed: $926
Patty: $1,521

Mariani: $1,371

Patty: $2,413
Ed: $2,542
Dawson: $6,119
Ed: $4,926
Patty: $4,683
Mariani: $2,765

November 26, 2015
BAY MINETTE, Ala. (AP) - A Baldwin County jury has found a Foley
man guilty of murder in the 2008 shooting of his wife in their home.
The jury on Wednesday also found 69-year-old David Harlan
Mumford guilty of assault for choking his son after the shooting.
Prosecutors said Mumford stormed into the home and shot 46-year-old Teresa Ann Welsh on June 15, 2008.
Authorities say she was shot once in the back and twice in the head.
Defense attorney Pascal Bruijn maintained that his client shot his wife in self-defense after she used pepper spray on him.
The son, who is now 16, testified that he knocked the gun out of
his father's hands and hit him on the head, and was able to break
away when his father began choking him.

Respond to Review of Bambu
by fletchiekins
Review: This family run restaurant in the heart of Valparaiso was both welcoming and English speaking. I liked this place so much I visited it everyday while in the city. The menu was in several languages (Spanish, English and French). The restaurant is located on the first storey of an old colonial house so it isn't the best access for wheelchairs etc. The menu offered traditional western meals (lasagne, pizza etc) and had a vegetarian twist to Chilean dishes. Their homemade bread is also great (apparently most of the bread in Valparaiso is not vege friendly and made with lard). This is nowhere near fine dining but the welcoming nature made it a favourite of mine.

Chester Lee Marks, is the founder of the Senior Citizen fight back show broadcasting live on USTREAM every day at 7:00P.M. The Senior Citizen show was created for the homeless people that have been abused, neglected, and treated unfairly to low income housing and who have been denied their constitutional rights.
Senior Citizens Low Income Housing Program was implemented by the Federal Government through HUD.
The low income housing representatives are using back ground records 10, 20, 30, and 40 years old to deny senior citizen low income housing with non-violent crime.
The Senior Citizen wants to reach out to those persons eating left over foods that have been put in the garbage can and walking the street day and night pushing their grocery cart with only their belongings inside. We believe that broadcasting live, the senior citizen plight worldwide can make a difference in the world.
The Senior Citizen mission is to let the world know that as human beings we cannot forget about the senior citizen plight worldwide. We want to see the homeless senior citizen in clean clothing, nicely groomed, and off the street into low income housing. We want to heal the senior citizen wounds with treatment that will prepare their body not to suffer any more pain mentally, spirituality, and physically.
We believe that the senior citizen who are living on the street without anyone to care for them can cause the next generation to lose respect, wisdom, and understanding in this world.
The senior citizen fight back staff and supporter want the world to know that we can help get them off the street into low income housing and live their remaining life in peace and humble with their creator of heaven and earth.
We will achieve that remedy through the court of law with attorney representing them on legal issues that forced them into the street.
The Senior Citizen is supported by congress appropriate fund committee program to help different agencies to minister that monies for the security in affordable housing and other materiality necessity. However, there are some agencies that have failed to respect those guidelines.
The Senior Citizen fight back show welcome all donations. Your donations will assist in fighting their court battle.
Senior Citizen Abuse
I am building a senior citizen fight back foundation for our senior citizens, elder and homeless. This is to fight against the injustice. My foundation well help them escape from abuse, threat, assault, physical attack, robbery, rape, murder, kidnapping, extortion, intimidation, and retaliation. The foundation needs donations and people who know how to raise funds for the foundation.
Background Checks
All background checks are governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 USC 1681c). the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) regulates the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer information, including consumer credit information and is enforced by the Fair Trade Commission and private law suits.
The FCRA section 605(a)(5) prohibits the reporting of any adverse information, other than conviction, beyond 7 years prior to date of the report. However, the FCRA does not place any limits on how long a conviction can remain on your background check. There is some confusion regarding this and that is probably caused by the fact that prior to 1998 convictions were only allowed to be reported for seven years. The restriction was removed with the "Consumer Reporting Clarification Act of 1998" (Senate Bill 2561, Pub. L. No. 105-347)
California regulates background checks through The Investigative Consumer Reporting Agencies Act (California Civil Code Section 1786). The law prohibits the reporting of felony convictions beyond 7 years prior to the date of the report.
1786.18(a)(7) Records of arrest, indictment, information, misdemeanor complaint, or conviction of a crime that, from the date of disposition, release, or parole, antedate the report by more than seven years. These items of information shall no longer be reported if an any time it is learned that, in the case of a conviction, a full pardon has been granted or, in the case of an arrest, indictment, information, or misdemeanor complaint, a conviction did not result; except that records of arrest, indictment, information, or misdemeanor.

I taped the 1979 repeat broadcast and still have it, complete with its commercials and static squeals. It's my favorite of all the ones I heard during the series' first run. I liked its dry humor.

Kinda silly tale, but very fun! Ralph Bell and Jack Grimes seem to be having a great time and are in as fine a form as they are in any tale.

Another year has come and gone, and as we stand at the beginning of 2011, I've prepared this article to provide readers who run their own design blogs (or who are thinking about doing so) with some thoughts and ideas that I think could help really amp up their sites (and content) over the next year.
posted on Sep 8, 2010.
Echo Enduring has finally been redesigned, and this is just that mandatory post outlining what I did. Seriously, though, this post will outline the six key areas that I knew I had to address going into the redesign, and the solutions that I devised to solve the related problems. If you like the new design, be sure to have a read.
posted on Apr 13, 2010.
In this post, I am looking for a little bit of feedback from my awesome readers in order to help improve things here on the Echo Enduring Blog. I ask a few questions, which I can hope you can answer in the comments! Your input is always appreciated!

Thinking of starting your own design blog? Well in this post, I'm outlining 8 reasons why it might be a good idea to stop and pause and really reflect before you get started. Food for thought, as they say.

Lawmakers have 26 days to reach a deal on fiscal cliff negotiations.
If they do not compromise, $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts would go into effect for a wide range of programs.
Those cuts, called sequestration, would include losses to every Tennessee school district.
Hamblen County Schools District Director of Schools, Dr. Dale Lynch, said they would lose $558,000 per year, or 10% of their federal funding.
The areas affected include spending for:
-Title 1, high poverty schools
-Title 2, teacher training and recruitment
-Title 3, English language acquisition or non-English speaking students
-Special education programs
-Technical education programs
In Hamblen County, they have 10 schools classified as Title 1, including Hillcrest Elementary where 92% of students receive free or reduced lunch.
"We depend on Title 1 monies. We don't make our money through school fundraisers, through parent donations, or community donations. Our Title 1 budget supports our school," said Hillcrest Elementary Principal, Martha Kelly.
Dr. Lynch said on top of cuts to technology, sequestration would mean cutting personnel.
"When you're already funding education at a level that you're not proud of, it's going to continue to hurt and make deep cuts in our academic programs," Dr. Lynch said.
Dr. Lynch hasn't opted for the wait and see approach. Instead, he has urged his representatives to avoid sequestration.
"We need to be proactive and make sure we get the message out... about what this can potentially mean for our students our schools," he said.
Congress has until December 31st at midnight to reach an agreement.

Puʻu Kukui is a mountain peak in Hawaiʻi. It is the highest peak of Mauna Kahalawai (the West Maui Mountains). The 1,764-metre (5,787 ft) summit rises above the Puʻu Kukui Watershed Management Area, an 8,661-acre (35.05 km2) private nature preserve maintained by the Maui Land & Pineapple Company. The peak was formed by a volcano whose caldera eroded into what is now Īʻao Valley.
Puʻu Kukui is one of the wettest spots on Earth[2] and the second wettest in the state after Mount Waiʻaleʻale,[3] receiving an average of 386.5 inches (9,820 mm) of rain a year.[4] Rainwater unable to drain away flows into a bog. The soil is dense, deep, and acidic.[5]
Puʻu Kukui is home to many endemic plants, insects, and birds, including the greensword (Argyroxiphium grayanum), a distinctive bog variety of ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha var. pseudorugosa)[6] and many lobelioid species. Due to the mountain peak's extreme climate and peat soil, many species, such as the ʻōhiʻa, are represented as dwarfs. Access to the area is restricted to researchers and conservationists.

Fair labour practice bears fruitComment on this story
Cape Town - Adriaan Wolfaard not only pays his employees above the minimum wage, he encourages worker representation and abides by labour practices.
Despite this he became a victim of the farmworker strike after he lost 1 000 bins when his packing house was fire-bombed in November.
Wolfaard runs the Verdun Farm in Prince Alfred Hamlet which grows and exports stoned fruit to the UK and Canada.
Although some workers have threatened strike action recently, after thousands of others went on strike in the Boland over low pay, they believe their farm is among the best paying in the area.
Workers have told Wolfaard they will wait for the Department of Labour's Sectoral Determination before taking any action.
Women on the farm earn R83 a day and men, who work an extra hour, R93 a day. The women work nine hours during peak season. Permanent and seasonal workers have the same rates. Wolfaard said he preferred this to avoid dissension. Increases were negotiated by a farmworker committee elected by workers.
"Workers feel that they should be earning more and I agree with them. I feel that it need not be R150," he said.
He has kept in contact with the committee to ensure that he knows what's going on.
"We are coping. We are managing the situation as best we can. It (the strike) came at a time when we are vulnerable."
The company also provides housing for four families and the land has since been transferred to them.
Yesterday the farm was short-staffed after many workers who do the picking had left, apparently because of intimidation. There are normally seven teams of about 15 people each.
Wolfaard's son, Peter, who helps with the running of the farm, said workers had left early yesterday after threats were made against their lives.
But for others work did not stop. Randall Maart, 22, has been employed at the farm for four years but has been working on farms since he was eight years old. He worked his way up from pelleting to head of administration.
He earns R180 a day and helps his grandmother with household expenses. Maart plans to do a course in management to help realise his ambition of managing the packing house.
"Working here is great. The people here (owners) encourage you to follow your dreams. You have to work hard because there are opportunities for you to move up," Maart said.
Before going to the Verdun Farm, Karel Titus was a driver in Endevue near Ceres. He has been employed at the farm for about five years. At his previous job he earned about R60 a day but now earns R103 a day.
"Things are much better now," he said.

Chris Kunitz added his 12th of the season for Pittsburgh and James Neal scored an empty-net goal in the final minute as the Penguins sent the struggling Lightning to their fifth straight loss.
Malkin, making his return after missing four games due to a concussion, tied it 5:38 into the third period on a pretty breakaway. Crosby put Pittsburgh in front moments later with a slap shot from the slot that zipped past Anders Lindback and into the net.
Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos scored twice to push his league-leading total to 17, but it wasn't enough to stop the Lightning's slide.
Maple Leafs 4, Devils 2
TORONTO (AP)—Nazem Kadri continued his points streak Monday with a goal and an assist against the struggling Devils.
Clarke MacArthur, Jay McClement and Phil Kessel—with his first goal on home ice this season—scored in the third period for Toronto. Kadri connected in the first period and assisted on MacArthur's goal to earn points in his fifth straight game.
The 22-year-old Kadri leads the Leafs with 23 points in 23 games.
James Reimer, making his first appearance at Air Canada Centre since Feb. 11 after a mild knee ligament strain, made 28 saves for the win.
Marek Zidlicky scored twice for New Jersey, which hasn't won in five games.
Coyotes 5, Ducks 4, SO
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP)—Defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored in the fifth round of the shootout and Mike Smith stopped Bobby Ryan to help Phoenix .
Andrew Vermette, Shane Doan, Michael Stone and Keith Yandle scored for the Coyotes in regulation. Phoenix also beat the Pacific Division-leading Ducks 5-4 in a shootout Saturday night.
Steve Sullivan also scored in the shootout for Phoenix, which has won three of four.
Ryan Getzlaf had a goal, two assists and scored in the shootout, and Ryan, Corey Perry and Matt Beleskey scored for the Ducks, who have lost consecutive games for the first time this season.
The teams traded four goals over a six-minute stretch of the third period.
Kings 5, Predators 1
LOS ANGELES (AP)—Jeff Carter completed his fifth career hat trick with two goals in a 19-second span of the third period, and the Kings beat the Predators despite taking only 16 shots on net.
Jonathan Bernier made 18 saves and has won five consecutive starts for the first time in his NHL career, equaling his entire win total from last season in 16 games. The five-year veteran didn't play at all during the Kings' Stanley Cup championship run as Jonathan Quick captured the Conn Smythe Trophy as postseason MVP.
Mike Richards and Dwight King also scored during a four-goal third period and defenseman Slava Voynov had a career-high three assists.

Shanghai has landed what the media say is the world's largest carbon-capture project, ChinaCSR said. The captured carbon is to be put to industrial use, rather than stored.
China's first voluntary domestic carbon emissions-reduction transaction has occurred, SINA reported. A Shanghai-based insurance company made the purchase.
Its large population is both China's biggest challenge and its strength, since people themselves are the best custodian of environments, Khalid Malik, the United Nations Resident Coordinator in China, told the China Daily website.

You know you've got a crappy phone when you get mugged and the mugger throws it back, saying that they "don't take
cheap stuff", which is exactly what happened the other day to a woman in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, which is home to
some of the snobbiest muggers in the world, apparently. No word on what kind it was, but we bet that it started with an
"n", ended with an "a" and had an "oki" in the middle.

In a new original František Kratochvíl's approach to the black light theatre, you will experience a common day and maybe a bit usual life. The performance connects several principles of black theatre into one non-verbal performance. It is a mixture of basic three-dimensional black theatre, comics, dance and pantomime. You will see humorous and grotesc parts and also poetry of drawn black theatre, contemporary dance pieces alternate with classical ballet and this all is tied together by the performance of the main characters. The performance is interactive and the spectators are welcome to take part in the show.

MINGO COUNTY, W.Va. (WYMT/WSAZ) - It's been almost a year since a fourth-grade student suffering from muscular dystrophy died in Mingo County.
Now his parents are accused of neglect causing his death.
Friends of Zachary Baisden say despite being confined to a wheelchair, he was one of the most positive kids they knew.
Logan Perry was Zach's classmate at Riverside Elementary in Williamson.
"He said he wanted to be a doctor so he could prevent things that he had with other kids so they couldn't get it," Perry said.
Zachary, 10, from the Merrimac area of Mingo County died May 11 last year.
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Teresa Maynard says doctors said he died because of complications with pneumonia. But after an investigation by the Mingo County Sheriff's Department requested by the medical examiner's office, almost a year later his parents Scott and Brandi Baisden were indicted on child neglect causing their son's death.
Maynard says toxicology reports showed Zachary had been given high doses of over-the-counter cold medication, along with Zanax, which was prescribed to Zachary's father.
Maynard says the combination caused Zachary to get even sicker and have serious problems with his lungs. Maynard says this began in October of 2011, seven months before his death.
Maynard also says workers at Zachary's school told his parents they needed to take him to a doctor, but they did not.
"If he'd retrieved appropriate treatment for that and everybody had taken appropriate steps, it could have been prevented," Maynard said.
People in the community say losing a young life is always heartbreaking, but knowing the parents are accused of being responsible makes it that much more tragic.
"It's terrible," Logan's mother Bernadean Perry said. "I mean, who could do that to their child? I wouldn't even give my kid Tylenol if the doctor didn't say to."
Maynard says the couple has been placed on home confinement, and the father was granted a work release. Their bond was set at $50,000 each.
Maynard says the couple pleaded not guilty at their arraignment Monday.
The family says they have no comment at this time.
Their trial has been set for June 11.

Law School Applications / Re: Is an undergrad public school a handicap?« on: August 08, 2007, 02:15:38 PM »
I attended the University of Iowa and I'm wondering if schools will look at me askance for it, as opposed to an undergrad candidate from Harvard or MIT.
My worry is that they'll consider it "easy," despite my 4.0 GPA. What do you think? Did anyone get into Harvard or Yale from a state school?
I know someone who got into both Yale and Harvard and attended a public school for undergrad. Just get good grades, study for the LSAT, and get to know a few professors well.

In its 5 year run, AMC's hit show Mad Men has both glamorized and misrepresented the advertising and marketing industry. Though the drama and intrigue has made the show a must-watch for millions of avid viewers, the TV show depicts an advertising and marketing profession that is far removed from the marketers we know today.
Marketing has been forced to change and adapt alongside changing technologies and evolving consumer tastes. Better informed and more engaged consumers have compelled marketers to change strategies from pushing marketing messages out to audiences, to pulling them in with valuable content, personal contact via social media, and personalized sales experiences via marketing automation.
The infographic below from Pardot illustrates just how the advances in technology, communication, and strategy have led to a modern day marketer that the 1960s Mad Men would find almost unrecognizable.
