The Cincinnati Reds' Todd Frazier and Billy Hamilton, center, celebrate after scoring to tie the Pittsburgh Pirates in the ninth inning of their game last Friday.
Cincinnati Reds manager Dusty Baker would not commit to Billy Hamilton, who spent most of this season playing for the Triple-A Louisville Bats, being on the postseason roster.
"We've had discussion about it," Baker said Tuesday before the Reds' 4-2 loss to the New York Mets. "We still haven't decided. There are a lot of variables, a lot of things we have to decide."
Baker knows if it's put up to a fan vote, Hamilton is on the roster. ...

After launching two limited edition ranges to celebrate Pacman's and the Peanut gank's anniversary last year, Moleskine is introducing another special edition of their notebook.
The legendary notebook pays tribute to the iconic literature Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince) written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. First published in 1943, the story of Le Petit Prince brings an insight to human nature and life as as seen from the point of view of an innocent child. Written beautifully in poetic prose, the book has been translated to more than 190 languages and become a best-seller of all time.
Moleskine collaborated with director and animator Virgilio Villoresi to launch the collection.
Available in two versions, the notebook features drawings and classic quotes from this timeless tale. Like the storybook, Moleskine Le Petit Prince Special Edition holds a special surprise. The essence of magic in the story is captured in little details such as custom messages in the notebook, complete with a cut-out paper reproduction of the Prince enjoying a 'perpetual sunset' and other scenes from the story, hidden in the inside pocket.
The collection will be available in April 2011.

- liposomal SN-38
The liposomal formulation of SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxy-camptothecin), a biologically active metabolite of the prodrug irinotecan, with potential antineoplastic activity. SN-38 binds to and inhibits topoisomerase I by stabilizing the cleavable complex between topoisomerase I and DNA, resulting in DNA breaks, inhibition of DNA replication, and apoptosis. SN-38 has been reported to exhibit up to 1,000-fold more cytotoxic activity against various cancer cells in vitro than irinotecan. The liposomal formulation of SN-38 increases the solubility of SN-38, which is a relatively insoluble compound, and improves the pharmacodynamic profile as compared to SN-38 alone. Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
Synonym: SN-38 liposome Code name: LE-SN38

I was born in Tucson, Arizona on July 11th, which makes me an emotional Cancer astrological sign. My family soon packed it up and moved to a small little town in northern Arizona otherwise known as Show Low. I grew up being a tomboy of sorts, riding dirt bikes; riding my horses and anything I could find to entertain myself outdoors. I have always loved being the center of attention.
I started competing in beauty pageants like Miss Teen Arizona and Hawaiian Tropics, taking a few titles along the way. I graduated high school a year early to pursue my dreams of stardom. Started modeling and traveling all over the world endorsing all sorts of products like Titan Motorcycles, HSV swimwear, Hawaiian Tropics, Hankook Tires, JW Marriott and Nitro Fitness Supplements just to name a few. Aside, from all my print work I have a pretty active TV and Film career too. I have appeared in shows like MTV's Dude This Sucks and Temptation Mountain, Vh1's Rodeo Road, NBC's Spy TV, Scare Tactics on the Sci-Fi channel and Fox's The Dan Show as Miss High Maintenance.
I am extremely passionate about animals. In fact, I have two of my own. A teacup Yorkie named Gidgit, a teacup Chihuahua named Lucy. When I am not working or traveling I love to spend time with my family, friends and pets. For those of you that know me I am sure you have met my dogs they usually travel with me, even for signings. Some of my hobbies include, horseback riding, motorcycles, mountain biking, weight training, yoga, and of course shopping. My favorite food is Mexican. My favorite color is pink. If there were only 5 things I couldn't live without I would say, my pets, my family, true love , the gym and my Chanel lip gloss. I hope that you will find everything you are looking for on my official website. I am so glad you decided to come see me! I hope that I will get to know each and every one of you better!

A seventh victim has been linked to the case of Milwaukee's 23-year-old unsolved serial killer who is known as the North Side Strangler.
The Milwaukee Police Department's crime lab has tied the unknown suspect's DNA to prostitute Florence McCormick, who was found dead in April 1995 around the same North Side neighborhood where other victims were found since 1986.
Like most of the other victims, McCormick was an African-American prostitute, whose body was found in a vacant house. The last murder happened in 2007.

Court to rule on homicide suspect's commitment to mental health facility
Published: Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 2:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 17, 2013 at 2:24 p.m.
OCALA – A hearing is scheduled for next week to determine if an elderly man should be released from involuntary commitment at a state treatment center, and where he should go if he is released.
In August 2009, Lennard "Big Man" Smart, then 85, was arrested by Marion County Sheriff's Office detectives on charges of the first-degree murder of Emma "Ruth" Smith, 56, and the attempted first-degree murder of Linda Wright, 31.
Wright is the daughter of Smart and Smith.
Authorities said Smart, now 89, shot the women with a revolver and a rifle over an alleged dispute that had simmered for days after Smith reportedly accused Smart of stealing $20.
In a motion filed April 11 by Smart's attorney, Camille Concannon with the Public Defender's Office, the defense noted that on July 29, 2010, Smart was adjudged incompetent to proceed to trial and was committed to the Department of Children and Families by a judge, after which he was taken to the North Florida Evaluation and Treatment Center.
Since that time, Smart has been going back and forth between the center and the Marion County Jail.
On July 1, 2011, DCF sent a letter to the court, along with Smart's most recent clinical summary, and asked the court to review his commitment at the center based upon his recovery team's finding that Smart is considered "non-restorable."
"It's highly unlikely that he will be restored to competency in the foreseeable future," noted the finding document.
"Because of this improbability, it is the conclusion of the defendant's treatment team that he no longer meets the criteria for commitment in a forensic facility," Concannon wrote in her motion.
According to Mike Graves, Public Defender for the State of Florida Fifth Judicial Circuit, a hearing will begin at 8:30 a.m. Monday before Judge Hale Stancil. Discussions will include the team's findings and trying to find a place to house Smart other than the county jail.

Taken down
Cardinals can't recover from early first quarter deficit
October 1, 2008
The first play of the game may have said it all for Eudora.
The Cardinals lined up in the wrong formation, which drew the wrath of coach Gregg Webb. Webb called timeout, trying to get his team to focus. But the timeout did little, and Eudora looked out of sync from the start and fell to Paola, 35-21, last Friday night at Laws Field.
"We had to be ready to play because their kids aren't too bad, and we were not ready to play. I don't know for whatever reason," Webb said.
Eudora found itself in a 21-point hole just seven minutes into the game. Paola tailback Skylar Hawkins, who ran through the Eudora defense all night, scored the Panthers' first touchdown on a 20-yard gallop on Paola's first possession.
Paola soon found the end zone again after Eudora bobbled a snap back to the punter. QB Adam Henn capitalized on the good field position and scored on a 1-yard plunge. The Cardinals Evan Cleveland then fumbled the kickoff, and Hawkins scored on a 28-yard run to give Paola a commanding 21-0 lead with 5:36 to play in the first quarter.
In just seven offensive plays, Paola had scored three touchdowns.
"We had some huge gaffes on defense with assignments and our effort up front was not good the first quarter," Webb said.
The Cardinals (2-2) began to crawl back into the game by using the legs of Ryan Fisher. Fisher, who missed last week's game with a shoulder injury, scored on a 13-yard run to cut the lead to 21-7 at the end of the first quarter. But Hawkins answered that score with a 28-yard run for his third touchdown of the half to make the score 28-7 at the break.
Hawkins had 138 yards and three touchdowns in the first half and finished the game with 239 yards and four touchdowns off 27 carries. Webb said a makeshift secondary was part of the reason the Cardinals had trouble containing Hawkins. Fisher was coming back from an injury and Zack Bryant also was injured in the game.
"We don't have the greatest athletes in the world and every one of them has to play really fundamentally sound and we didn't," Webb said. "We have some issues defensively. We've known we've had some issues defensively since camp and then when Fisher gets hurt and Zack Bryant got hurt, then we're really depleted in the secondary and we were trying to mix and match."
The Cardinals showed some fight in the second half as they forced the Panthers to punt on their opening drive. Eudora then marched down the field and scored on a 35-yard run by William Gadberry. The PAT was no good and Eudora trailed 28-13. But Hawkins answered that score with a 3-yard touchdown run late in the third.
The Cardinals answered back on a 1-yard quarterback sneak from Evan Cleveland early in the fourth, but that was as close as the Cardinals would get to catching the Panthers.
"I'm proud of our kids," Webb said. "They played hard. They do whatever we ask them to do. Their effort is solid and we just have to work on fundamentals and understanding the game. We don't understand the game too well, but that's high school football."
In his return Fisher racked up 172 yards on 26 carries and scored one touchdown.
"He's a tough kid and we didn't intend to play him that much," Webb said. "But he kept telling us that he felt pretty good, and we shouldn't have played him that much, but he wants to play. It's his senior year, I'm going to let him play."
The Cardinals will play next at 7 p.m. Friday at Louisburg.

Sometimes when I set the GraLab the safelight comes on, which isn't exactly what I wanted. When that happens, I abort developing and move the film to fix. (Usually happens late in development anyway just setting the time for fix).

IPAB. It has nothing to do with electronics. But it has all to do with the future of medical provider payments.
IPAB stands for Independent Payment Advisory Board. This new federal entity, created by the Affordable Care Act, generates fear and loathing among health care providers, especially those who stand to profit the most in our current system.
IPAB's mission is to achieve specific Medicare savings and control its net growth in spending. This is accomplished by mandating specific reductions in Medicare payments if projected costs rise higher than a predetermined target growth rate ...

Lymphedema is when fluid (lymph) collects anywhere in your body and causes swelling (edema).
Some people develop lymphedema after cancer treatment. Surgery that removes lymph nodes or radiation treatment to the pelvis may damage lymph nodes in that area. For women with gynecologic cancers the swelling will be in the legs, abdomen or groin area.
If you notice any of the following symptoms, notify your doctor, nurse or cancer rehabilitation specialist.
Lymphedema cannot be prevented.
Do not blame yourself if you develop lymphedema.
It is best to see a doctor who is knowledgeable about lymphedema. If a diagnosis of lymphedema is made, you should see a Certified Lymphedema Therapist (CLT). The treatment for lymphedema is called Complete Decongestive Therapy (CDT).
Complete Decongestive Therapy has several types of treatments. They include:
Your Certified Lymphedema Therapist will discuss which of these treatments is best for you.

Building Intelligent Probabilistic Systems
In the HIPS group, we are interested in building intelligent algorithms. What makes a system intelligent? Our philosophy is that "intelligence" means making decisions under uncertainty, adapting to experience, and discovering structure in high-dimensional noisy data. The unifying theme for research in these areas is developing new approaches to statistical inference: uncovering the coherent structure that we cannot directly observe and using it for exploration and to make decisions or predictions. We develop new models for data, new tools for performing inference, and new computational structures for representing knowledge and uncertainty.
A perpetual challenge in statistical modelling is trying to find the parsimonious complexity in the data. That is, balancing simplicity in our explanations of the world with the flexibility that is required to capture the rich variation that occurs in real data. One remarkable class of mathematical tools for balancing these extremes are Bayesian nonparametric model, which enable one to specify an infinite-dimensional model, while still manipulating it tractably on a finite computer. Such models mean that our explanations for the world can grow in complexity precisely to the extent that the data allow it.
Modern machine learning methods have proved remarkably successful at inferring statistical structure from data, something that any intelligent system must be able to perform. However, there is a disconnect between how our algorithms are represented in computer hardware and what we understand about the hardware of natural neural systems. In particular, we are still trying to understand how action potentials (neural spikes) can be used to implement adaptive computation. An ongoing project in the HIPS group is to try to formalize such computation in terms of powerful statistical objects called point processes.
Many of the empirical successes of machine learning can be characterized as "simple discrimination functions applied to complex representations". The question is: how do we automatically find these representations? In probabilistic modelling, we view this as a problem of finding latent variables, which provide a simpler and often lower-dimensional representation of our high-dimensional data. In the HIPS group, we are constantly developing new ways to construct these kinds of models and apply them in different domains.
Powerful mathematical models and representations are only useful if we can perform the computation necessary to manipulate them. In the context of intelligent probabilistic systems, this can often be viewed as the problem of performing statistical inference. We are interested in building new computational tools that enable this inference, most often by developing new Monte Carlo methods, with potential impact both within computer science and statistics, but also across the broader sciences, such as biology and physics.

Christian motivation is created God's way, if... we are willing to be changed by Him. It is not by self determined objectives or positive thinking.
Know Your Why
FREE Christian Motivational Ebook!
Click here.
Christians should not be crowd pleasers, working for self glory, fame, applause, or fortune. "Know your why" for building your home based business and let God's Word motivate you and lift you higher as you submit to God in obedience to Christ.
God's Word
Christian motivation springs forth from knowing God's will in accordance with what the Word of God says in the Bible.
The Bible says, in...
Col. 3:17, "And whatever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."
Ephesians 6:6 says our motives should be to serve, "Not with eyeservice, as men pleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;"
Col. 3:23 says, "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;"
God First
Problems arise when we try to do what other people are doing; Working for a bigger home, a nicer car, or a fat bank account. Contentment and fulfillment will never come when you work for material gain.
You will eventually lose the desire to work for them because you know deep down in your heart that there are nobler goals to achieve. There are souls to save, the hungry to feed, the hurting to be comforted. God really does have a plan for you. Seek His will "daily." Each time you surrender to His leading today, you'll be one step closer to what he'll ask of you tomorrow.
So you see, we can't put the cart before the horse. We can't just decide we're going to do something and use positive thinking to get us there. We have to yield to the Holy Spirit and let God determine our motives and objectives step by step as we seek His direction by reading the Bible. God wants us to work in the Holy Spirit's power and not our own flesh to accomplish what He reveals to us through scripture. That's how we refresh our spirit and find the will to take action and keep going.
The Potter's Wheel
He needs to work on us a bit from time to time. Being on the Potter's wheel isn't much fun though. We want to get off and get on with the business at hand and do our own thing. We want to hurry up and accomplish things.
But he pokes us and turns us and shapes us. It's not easy to sit still while he does his work on us. After he is finished however, we will be of use to Him. We can serve others better and for the right reasons.
Once we know what God wants and we have the "right" motives, we can use other resources in addition to the Bible to help us be more productive with our time, help us with Christian goal setting, and develop our Christian character.

I would like to take my two children tent camping at Allegany State Park but we're not sure if we're going to arrive there Friday evening or Saturday.

Health officials say it's not to late to get a flu vaccination.
- Filed Under
The flu appears to be on the decline. Or does it?
Flu-like symptoms accounted for fewer and fewer emergency room visits last week, according to the Indiana State Department of Health. At the same time, there were nine new deaths reported, bringing the season's total to 56.
Such conflicting information, however, is all part of a typical flu season, experts say. ...

I am in the process of developing a new development environment for test engineers in my team and our goal is to test optical cards. National Instruments developped tons of activeX to talk to test equipment, like Agilent lightwave multimeter, DCA etc. using GPIB, Serial or telnet connections. I would like to use them, but is there an easiest way to do that, is there classes that exist to talk to GPIB instrument for example. I also need to play with real time data acquisition and plot data on the screen in real-time ? The data is coming from those test equip. mentionned above... thanks for your help !!!

[Verse 1 - Cam'ron]
I'm official nice, y'all niggas Fisher Price
This a wrist of light, get it right, a vicious price ($50,000)
Plus my kicks are Nik', this what the bitches like
Like your bitchin' wife and sister might get tonight
Mister right, kiss her right, make sure that her lips get wiped
She don't suck nothing, buzzen, but she lick it nice
She a hummer - nah, plumber - she could "twist the pipes"
When I was 15, bang-bang, I called my moms'
Cell, she snorting long....that don't even correspond
All the Ganj all is gone, just came from Autobahn
Came back with the foreign Palm (I'll holla!)Shit, before I go berserk, jerk, when I sold it hurt
Urf told me go to school: nah, bitch, go to work! (Get a job!)
And gave the coldest smirk
Right after she stole my work (Where you going with my shit?!)
And the nerve to hold her purse (I'll holla!)
We make change yay, we slang yay
It sound like merengue, like "ay ay ay ay ay"
And we crazy, homes
.380, homes
To your baby's dome: bang bang bang bang boom!
And we bomb like "La Bamba"
With bamba, send bombers to bomb ya
With bombs in their bombers
And the ladies, they lay me, they crazy
They love me, they hate me, like (ay ay ay ay ay!)
[Verse 2 - Cam'ron]
Ok, here come the rundown
Niggas gonna run down, tell you put your gun down
Puff puff puff, shutdown Uptown
In the house, holla back
Going round, dunn clown
I'mma do this fast or slow
When I rap or when I bag a O, when I wrap that
Pass that, catch back, fast that
Motherfuckers had to know
Oh, oh, I'm about that cornbread
Believe me, I'm beyond dead
I do this for blood shed, do it for Bloodshed
Derek Michael Armstead
Me and him soul-to-soul
If you bowl your fold, better slow your role
Before your roll get popped
And them hoes them hop from pole to pole
Lemme slow it up (why?)
So y'all can cope n' touch
I'm heroin and sex in one: dope as fuck
I'm hoping I'm ropin' the Trojan
And goin' a-hoin', "open it up"
If not, dogg, I'm choking the slut
Am I poking or what? You got to figure, dogg
The game and a chicken wing, stupid "figure four"
I'm that nigga y'all - I just ball

Jane Fonda: One of The Prettiest 75 Year Olds
If I can rock a gown like that at 75, bring it on…….
Jane Fonda rocked one of the prettiest yellow gowns at the Academy Awards that I have ever seen by Versace. Not only that, she's 75 with a figure of a 30 year old. I hate going by degrees like that, but she certainly should give women who are afraid of aging and their bodies some real, hard incentives!
She is actually beautiful and this statement will not be followed by "for her age" which would knock the whole compliment out of the water! She just is and since she has always been in to Exercise and the reasons for Toning your body, you can see that we can be what we want to be! She has lived what she has preached about and it shows.
If Ms. Fonda has ever gone under the "knife" (plastic surgery) we don't know that and neither does it really matter. Just about half of Hollywood has been augmented. She flies so under the radar that you don't have time to wonder about what she's up to because she has a real life. Currently Ms. Fonda is simply living her life and signing books.
This Fitness Guru has accomplished quite a few things. For me, her Acting ability was Extra-ordinary. Such a complicated movie "Klute" seemed to help define her Acting career but "They Shoot Horse Don't They" defined one of best Acting jobs seen to date. She is so much more than that though, concerning herself with the Political Arena, working with the Civil Rights Movements and the Viet Nam War as well. She has been a rather noticeable and truthful Activist. At any rate, I was surprised to see her at the Academy Awards. In fact, last night was one of the Best Awards shows and I've been a fan for life. Beautiful singing and exceptional attire was share last night too. Surprises and upsets. That show didn't even seem so long this time!
I didn't know until now about Ms. Fonda's feminist and civil rights activism – I do admire her willingness to speak up for what's right. While I find her "Hanoi Jane" antics (admittedly, done decades before I was born) kind of distasteful, I can see her lifetime of healthy living has certainly paid dividends – she's defied the clock.
nice share about Jane Fonda, Thanks Jswana.
Very well written and nicely expressed, thanks for sharing
She is still very attractive, wow. Good share.
Yes, she is beautiful!bI heard this is her first live public appearance in years because she gets stage fright so we were lucky she did her best to over come her stage fright and did it well. Kudos to Ms Fonda!

Italy - Eurociett urges government to remove restrictions to agency work
On 9 November 2011, ASSOLAVORO, the Italian member of the European Confederation of Private Employment Agencies (Eurociett), held its annual conference in Rome on the role of private employment agencies in the changing labour market.
Eurociett President, Annemarie Muntz, addressed an audience of over 150 participants, representing the industry, trade unions, governments, universities and journalists, and urged Italy to lift all outdated and unjustified restrictions to agency work, such as reasons for use, quotas on agency workers and maximum length of assignment, in order to achieve a more efficient labour market.
The recently published report 'Adapting to change', carried out by the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Eurociett, shows that agency work contributes to more efficient labour markets. Countries in Europe that have reformed the labour markets according to the flexicurity model, by implementing its pillars to the specific national context, are those with more efficient labour markets.
In order to foster sound development of the industry, there is a need for appropriate regulation, which enables private employment agencies to offer a variety of HR services and to promote social dialogue and worker protection.
On 5 December 2011, Italy will have an opportunity to improve its score on the Regulatory Efficiency Index, by fully transposing the Agency Work Directive (2008/104/EC), reviewing restrictions to agency work and lifting those that are unjustified.
Annemarie Muntz, Eurociett President, commented "in this context, I welcome the decision to give private employment agencies the responsibility to provide apprenticeship contracts."
"This is indeed a step in the right direction. However, considering the high level of youth unemployment in Italy (near 30%) more must be done. Increasing cooperation with public employment services and ensuring a more significant role for private employment agencies in the implementation of active labour market policies will also help overcome unemployment and labour market inefficiencies."

A Gentle Introduction to Routing
Routing Fundamentals
On to the topic at hand.
Routing, in essence, is the act of finding a path from one place to another on which a packet can travel. To find this path, we need algorithms. They will generally be distributed among many routers, allowing them to jointly share information. Routing is said to contain three elements:
- Routing protocols, the things that allow information to be gathered and distributed
- Routing algorithms, to determine paths
- Routing databases to store information that the algorithm has discovered. The routing database sometimes corresponds directly to routing table entries, sometimes not.
Our installment on layers actually introduces a bit of routing by talking about the paths an IP packet takes through operating systems and routers. What may not have been clear, though, is how the routing table lookup step works.
We also need to understand some really basic problems with routing. Just like in Layer 2, routers need to be redundant. Redundancy always introduces the possibility of a loop, and every routing protocol has to deal with this. As we�ll see in future Networking 101 articles about specific protocols, this is pretty much a solved problem.

A lot of people think that Mary Jane Garcia is being picked on. Lets face it. She broke the law, she has to pay the penalty.
I am not in Mary Jane Garcia's district, but the flyer that was sent out by the Reform New Mexico Now PAC is absolutely not acceptable. I can see where Republicans are up to dirty politics again.
Mary Jane Garcia, ignorance of the law of reporting expenses is no excuse. You and the rest of the deeply entrenched Democrats have been doing this for years and I am glad you have finally gotten caught.
I have known Senator Mary Jane Garcia all my life. You have my full support senator. I despise the Republicans dirty shenanigans and I love your positive radio ads on 101 Gold and in the Las Cruces Sun-News.
Lee Cotter is running for state senator. His top priority is not jobs. It is voter ID to rid New Mexico of dishonest voting. There has been only one case of alleged individual voter fraud in New Mexico since 2000.
The District Attorney's office just got two back to back murder convictions here in District Court. Taking two murderers out of our community. There is no way that anyone would not support a DA that convicts murderers.
As a member of the Health Care Consortium, I wish to thank Amy Orlando for her efforts to educate and protect the elderly against physical and economic crimes.
Rep. Pearce has continually been a strong advocate of Southern New Mexico values during his time in Congress. He holds regular town hall meetings to get voter input, hosts job fairs to help people find work, works extensively to help our veterans and always votes to stem government spending.
Senate candidate Heather Wilson's total ignorance about the threat of global warming and the dire drought shows her anti-science viewpoint.
In his televised statements for Senate District 31, Brett Preston stated that photo ID at the polls would have prevented the voter fraud in Sunland Park. That's nonsense. It was registration fraud and had nothing to do with photo ID. I'll vote for Joseph Cervantes who seemed to know what's going on.
After weeks of negative, rude, slanderous and absolutely misleading ads by Archuleta and Tellez in District 36, I had to have my say. Representative Nunez has served his constituents and fellow New Mexicans with integrity and honesty.
I first became acquainted with Judge Goodin about 10 years ago during his involvement with referring high school sport. I found him to be always dedicated to making the right calls, regardless of whether it was going to upset someone or not. If he is a judge the same way as he is a sports official, he will be an excellent judge.
Since your endorsement of the President, the response has ranged from wacky diatribes about "socialism" to vague rambling about the fall of the Roman empire with nothing factual in between. You must have gotten it right this time.
Mr. Krauthammer describes people who check facts as President Obama's "base." He is quite correct, though he seems to prefer the fast, mercurial myths of Romney.
Why hasn't Bishop Ramirez come out as forcefully as Bishop David Ricken, the leader of the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay, who noted in a recent letter to parishioners that voting for candidates who support what he calls "intrinsically evil" positions, such as abortion and gay marriage could "put your own soul in jeopardy."
Our military spending equals that of the 15 next largest militaries added together. Gov. Romney says we need to increase it to equal the total of the next 20 countries. My question would be, just what does he have in mind that the whole world would need to go to war with us?
To correct Obama's debate remarks, Planned Parenthood only refers patients to other facilities for mammograms. PP does not perform mammograms, and women can obtain referrals at any legitimate medical health provider, including those that do not perform abortions.
The unemployment rate has fallen from 10.2 to 7.8, the stock market has doubled, growth is accelerating, house prices are rising, all while the government payroll is shrinking, so when Gov. Romney says "Obama made things worse," he clearly means worse for Republicans, which of course means better for America.
You can always find anecdotes to the contrary, but the fact is, on the whole, America's economy is steadily improving from the disaster at the end of 2008. The Great Depression lasted 12 years and took a World War II to fully recover.
Oil is our number-one export. If we kept our oil here, wouldn't it be cheaper at the pump and wouldn't we be energy independent? Congressman Pearce is an oil man, maybe I should ask him.

The House approved measure H.R. 1633, or The Farm Dust Regulation Prevention Act of 2011, with a vote of 268 to 150. The dust bill will exempt rural nuisance dust from being regulated by the EPA, and instead will allow local and state agencies to regulate it.
The bill will now make its way to the senate.
"Allowing the EPA to regulate rural dust rather than state and local officials who know the areas well could lead to de facto bans of OHV use on racetracks, in designated recreation areas, on trails and even on private property all across this country," Allard said. "That's why it's critical that this measure pass the full Congress."
Every five years the EP's Clean Air Science Advisory Council is required to review the national ambient air quality standards. The CASAC recently recommended that EPA officials tighten up regulations on nuisance dust.
The off-road motorcycling community aren't the only ones happy with the House's decision to pass the dust bill preventing the EPA from regulation rural nuisance dust. Farmers are also thrilled with the news."This legislation is a big win for Texas ranchers and landowners," said Joe Parker Jr., the Texas and Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association (TSCRA) president. "Regulating agriculture dust without any scientific proof that it is harmful to human health would have had devastating economic impacts on the Texas cattle industry."

Once, there was a lady who was driving down a road in the middle of nowhere, low on gas. There was a town nearby, and after awhile she found it. Although it was deserted, there was a gas station. When she first reached it, it was empty, but soon after, an elder man came out and filled her car with gas. Afterwards, she turned to pull out her money to give to the man, but he was gone. At the same time, she realized that there was a man in a truck right behind her. She decided to leave at that point, but the man in the truck followed her. Oddly enough, he hadn't even gotten any gas yet. Now that she was on her way to her destination, she realized that the man was following her the entire way. She shrugged it off, however, deciding that they were just going the same way. To make sure, though, she took a sharp turn, and the man followed. The man began to flash his lights onto her car periodically, and she screamed, " What do you want from me?!" After she arrived at her friend's house, she screamed out to call the police since she was being followed. The man in the other car told her that it wasn't him, but in the back of her car was the man from the gas station, holding a knife in his hand.

Here's some…
VIDEO: New numbers released surrounding the data breach from Target shoppers. 110 million accounts hacked and now the retailer will offer free credit monitoring for all those people.
It was even worse than we knew. 110-MILLION accounts ... That's how many customers had their personal information stolen during Target's security breach. The retailer is now going to offer free credit monitoring to all those people. Right before Christmas .. Target told us 40- million credit and debit card accounts had been compromised. Now .. that figure has been revised ..dramatically. Already ..several local credit unions are keeping close tabs on their members' accounts. Channel 4's Kristen Cosby is joining us LIVE from Mandarin with what you need to know to protect your money and your credit standing .. Kristen. 3 Tens of thousands of people in our area found their credit or debit card accounts hacked... and several local credit unions are trying to proactive about helping those people out. 00-1011-1427-3545-501'08- 1'11Sharon York, Debit card breached John Hirabayshi, Community First Credit Union CEO Kristen Cosby, Mandarin Peter Venuti, Target customer Sharon York is one of 110- million people whose credit or debit card was compromised at Target. She found out through her credit union, Vystar, who sent her a letter last week. Local credit unions Vystar and Community First are part of a group of credit unions who proactively replaced member's cards. John Hirabayashi is the CEO at Community First Credit Union. Hirabayashi also recommends Target shoppers monitor their accounts, sign up for account alerts, check their credit reports and sign up for the free credit monitoring Target is offering. Many shoppers we spoke with today are already being vigilant. York continues to shop at Target, but said this experience made her more cautious. Target said it will announce how to sign up for its free credit monitoring next week. It said customers will have three months to sign up for the service.

Was it hectic organizing the Napoleon Hill International Conference 2012 and Napoleon Hill The Musical? You bet it was. I learned a lot during the process, particularly about how we as humans respond to situations differently and individually.
Some handled the high level of stress well. Some could not and broke down, revealing an ugly side to their personality. A certain key individual went into denial and remains so even now. At least one person that I know of took the opportunity to have a fling with the opposite sex. Some craved credit for work that they didn't do. A few simply worked their asses off to get the job done.
Some, like Playwright/Director/Producer/Writer JD Menon not only rose to the occasion but surmounted tremendous challenges and earned my respect as well as that of his cast and crew. Heck, we absolutely love the man!
Speaking of the cast and crew of Napoleon Hill The Musical, I have the utmost admiration for this raggedy bunch of talents harvested by JD Menon over facebook, which transformed themselves right in front of my eyes over a period of two months into an ensemble that proudly gave justice to the biography of Napoleon Hill via their songs, dances and storytelling.
I also made many new friends, including Don Green, Judith Williamson and Dr JB Hill (yes, Napoleon's grandson) of the Napoleon Hill Foundation USA and of course the conference speakers and my colleagues at Napoleon Hill Associates (M) Sdn Bhd.
I learned a lot from all the speakers, who unselfishly shared their knowledge and life experiences.
What can I say of Deepak Chopra's 5 hour talk at The Napoleon Hill International Convention 2012? It started off sounding simplistic—what we can do to usher in change, personal and planetary—it ended up not so much.
What follows is my best take on what the talk communicated beginning with the seven levels of consciousness, and why we've only but to ask the right questions to discover the answers that seemingly beguile us.
Many of us may only experience the first three levels of consciousness, that's deep sleep, dreams, and wakefulness because next is the area that becomes a bit flighty to our thinking, in that it leaves ego behind and borders on the ephemeral, but it can also be viewed as insight, empathy, tolerance.
The positive effects of this level are reduction of stress, lower blood pressure, less sickness, which can also mean slower heart rate, and more loving relationships—and yes, even regeneration of the body. Mediation will bring you to this or yoga, or perhaps for a start, even a walk around the block on a beautiful day.
Next is what Chopra refers to as experiencing the local and non-local simultaneously; it's the idea of being in this time but not of it, so there is no fear of death because any such fear is replaced with a sense of self-knowledge. This leads into a visionary response that is compassionate and service-oriented because it recognizes the other as itself.
Ultimately, this will lead to pure consciousness, the realization that there is no other, that self and other is the illusion, and that all consciousness is the same. As Chopra explains, "the drop of water, which experiences itself as the ocean realizes that it, in fact, has always been the ocean," and that its uniqueness or individuality has been the thing of dreams.
There is no such thing as an individual consciousness because anything experiencing itself as such is merely a pattern, and until this is universally perceived there can be no real change.
How do we arrive there? This is much of what the talk centred on. We begin to see the body as process, meaning we are recycling with the universe. This means, for instance, that every five days, you have a new stomach, and every three months a new skeleton.
So if we buy into this thinking, how then do "we" begin to transition? According to Chopra, it's scientifically proven: Lengthening your telomeres, can change your brain structure. The thought that we can we change our brain structure means we can change our thought patterns or responses as well as how we perceive of situations.
Does consciousness outlive the death of the physical process? According to this thinking, yes it emphatically does. What are we other than a mind perceiving of a human experience. We are not our brains because the brain can be manipulated, stimulated, its matter altered or destroyed, but even then something of a spirit remains: in our memory of lost limbs, for example, or in our memory of experiences, say, our appreciation of a certain sunset because mine will assuredly be different than yours.
"Non-locality equals pure potentiality."
"The ocean in the drop" is Rumi's thinking: it simply means the universe is in what is perceived as your being. So, what we really need for the next step, may be as simple as realigning our "set point, " everything indelibly inscribed on our psyches in our formative years, the first three years of our lives. Simply put, lengthening those telomeres.
"There are no spare parts." You have a purpose.
So, what's the remedy, or how do we go about changing our brains? Meditate (reset); "just do it" in way of exercise, walk, do yoga, go to the gym (this calms you in the end, as well as releasing toxins)
Ask the right questions. Chopra conducted what seemed like a very simplistic exercise – We had to face our neighbour and ask "Who am I?" for five minutes followed by "What do I want?" for another five and then vice versa. For me it was mind boggling because we are so caught up in living our lives that we've never asked ourselves these fundamental questions. It's good to stop and take stock of where we're headed occasionally.
Say something nice to someone, brighten someone's day—we never know how much time we've been given; make it count. Don't dwell on obstacles because what a lot of brilliant people tell us is that those perceived "bumps in the road" might just be pointing to opportunities that we may otherwise miss.
So, "keep your wits about you," and don't give in. Surround yourself with positive people, and your happiness will grow exponentially. Then there's an easy one - who else is in control of your destiny but you? Get enough sleep; eat better.
Gratitude, Joy, Love, Equanimity:
The ground of the compassionate spirit, according to Chopra, is the ground of the universe, and if you're already connected, what in the world is there really to fear?
So yes, I have always had the gift of analysing a situation quickly, but now I have learned that I can actually change the situation simply by changing my thoughts and therefore my reaction to that same situation.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have a mountain of Deepak Chopra books to read.

The oiler Yukon, pictured, has collided with the amphibious assault ship Essex. (Navy)
- Filed Under
SAN DIEGO The amphibious assault ship Essex collided with the oiler Yukon during an underway replenishment operation Wednesday in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of southern California, 3rd Fleet said in a statement.
The collision happened at 9:20 a.m. PDT about 120 miles out at sea as Essex approached the Yukon for a scheduled underway replenishment, Cmdr. Charlie Brown, a fleet spokesman, said.
"Both ships reported some damage," Brown said. The damage "is still being assessed" but no injuries were reported.
The collision appeared "due to an apparent steerage malfunction" aboard Essex, 3rd Fleet said. No fuel was spilled, "and the ships' fuel tanks and systems were not compromised."
The Essex was set to pull into San Diego Bay on Thursday, returning to its former stateside homeport after spending a dozen years with the forward-deployed naval forces in Japan.
Its crew of San Diego-based sailors and officers most recently were working aboard amphibious assault ship Bonhomme Richard, which completed a "hull swap" with Essex in Sasebo, Japan, on April 23.
For the swap, the Sasebo-based crew handed over Essex and boarded Bonhomme Richard, which last year had completed an in-depth maintenance overhaul and upgrades to prepare for its new assignment with Japan-based Task Force 76 and 7th Fleet.
"It wasn't easy to turnover a ship we had poured so much blood, sweat, toil and tears into," Capt. Chuck Linchfield, Essex's skipper, said of the Bonhomme Richard. "However, the crew never looked back. They took immediate ownership of Essex. We spent the last 18 days in transit across the Pacific defining for ourselves what it means to be Essex."
After arriving in San Diego, the big-deck Essex, nicknamed the "Iron Gator," will prepare to leave for Hawaii this summer for the biennial "Rim of the Pacific" exercise, 3rd Fleet officials said in a news release. The Pacific Fleet exercise will run from June 29 to Aug. 3. Then, Essex will go into a San Diego shipyard for an extensive maintenance period.
The Yukon was also scheduled to take part in the exercise as one of the ships testing a biofuel mix for the Navy's "Great Green Fleet" project.
The collision isn't the first for Yukon, which like all oilers, frequently has ships maneuvering at close range to come alongside for fuel and stores. In July 2000, Yukon was accidentally rammed by amphibious transport dock Denver during its underway replenishment approach.
The Essex collision is the first warship-to-warship collision in three years. The last occurred in 2009 in the Strait of Hormuz, when the attack submarine Hartford and the amphibious transport dock New Orleans collided. Since then, there have been a few navigation incidents buoy strikes by destroyer The Sullivans and sub tender Emory S. Land and erratic driving by ballistic missile submarine Kentucky.

CSS is a simple yet powerful tool that can greatly reduce the headaches that go hand-in-hand with web development. But the knife that is CSS cuts both ways – CSS can be the bane of your web-existence and cause many such headaches.
In my experience I have found the CSS headaches start to come into play when the need to over-ride a style comes into the picture.
Relief comes in the form of understanding the concept of CSS Specificity.
In a word – CSS specificity applies a value to each of the CSS Rules being applied to a same object in the DOM which determines which of these rules "wins" and gets the honor of being applied by the browser. If an object in the DOM has two CSS rules applied the rule with the higher specificity value will get applied. If the two have the same specificity value then the rule that is later in the code "wins".
Calculating CSS Specificity
Specificity is calculated by taking into account the selectors used in the CSS rule. Two factors come into play:
- Type of selector and
- Number of selectors used.
Types of selectors in order from most valuable to least:
- Style attribute
- Class, pseudo-class, attribute
- HTML Element
Selector types act as "Trump" cards – where one is more valuable then any number of any selector types beneath them. An easy way to quickly determine which rule has a higher specificity is to look and see which rule is using a more valuable selector type in the rule. (be sure to look through the whole rule, though, as higher value selectors could be nested in lower value selectors). If two rules have the same number of the top-most type, the tie breaker goes to the next highest style type. Lastly – if two rules have the same value after applying all selectors then the tie breaker goes to the rule that occurs later in the code.
Example 1:
#idofelement .classofelement {display:block;}
Will beat
.classofparent6 .classofparent5 .classofparent4 .classofparent3. classofparent2 .classofparent1 .classofelement {display:none;}
Because the ID reference trumps all class references.
Example 2:
.classofparent6 .classofparent5 .classofparent4 .classofparent3. classofparent2 .classofparent1 .classofelement {display:none;}
Will beat
.classofparent4 .classofparent3. classofparent2 .classofparent1 .classofelement {display:none;}
Because of more class references.
Cris Coyier wrote a great article that helps to break out the specifics on CSS Specificity and uses some nice illustrations to help visualize the scoring methods.
Guidelines for Specifying CSS
Jonathan Snook offers up some good general guidelines for specifying CSS. Take away points include:
1. Only specify as much as needed to accomplish the desired result. One of the biggest reasons to incorporate CSS is the ability to apply styles to a wide range of objects in the DOM with a minimal number of CSS selectors – making the code efficient and modifications simple.
2. Although !important works – use sparingly and carefully. By using the !important declaration you are assigning that CSS selector as king – not to be overwritten by a downstream CSS or one with more specificity. The only way you can overwrite an !important is by using !important again – and so the tangled knot begins.

RENO, Nev. (AP) - Lawyers trying to get James Biela off Nevada's death row say his execution sentence was emotionally motivated by
"an avalanche of news coverage" and the public campaign to bring justice to the young woman he was convicted of raping and strangling.
The appellant lawyers told the Nevada Supreme Court Monday Biela
deserves a new trial in the 2008 killing of Brianna Denison and sexual assault of two other college coeds around the campus of the
University of Nevada, Reno.
They say even if he's guilty of the crimes, he didn't deserve the death penalty. They say the jury was prejudiced and acted out of passion because of the media frenzy over the manhunt for a serial rapist, the blue ribbon campaign in Brianna's name and the Bring Bri Justice Foundation.

Using Printed Nanocircuits to Sense Hormones
Novel device could aid the treatment of infertility.
Just as glucose meters have revolutionized the treatment of diabetes, researchers at a startup called Aneeve Nanotechnologies believe they're building hormone sensors that could revolutionize the understanding and treatment of infertility, menopause, and other conditions related to hormone fluctuation.
Aneeve is part of a new technology incubator program at the University of California at Los Angeles. The company is working to create low-cost sensors that can be made with off-the-shelf ink-jet printers and carbon-nanotube ink. The printers lay down nanotube circuits that, upon binding to the estrogen protein estradiol, undergo a change to their resistance and optical properties and transmit that change via radio waves to another device. The company's chief operating officer, Kosmas Galatsis says he hopes the result will be a system as convenient as glucose meters.
Currently, there's no easy and inexpensive method to regularly test fluctuations in a woman's hormone levels. "There's a glucose meter, but no hormone meter to help people keep their hormones at a desired level," Galatsis says. Researchers conducting clinical trials, or physicians trying to determine fertility rhythms, for example, require blood samples to be collected at a lab on a daily or twice-daily basis. But with a simple, use-from-home monitor, a woman could keep close tabs on her hormone levels by pricking her finger and depositing a drop of blood on a disposable carbon-nanotube strip. "If a couple can't get pregnant, they can monitor their hormone levels over several months and try to fertilize when their hormone levels are optimal," he says.
The scientists at Aneeve also believe that such a device could help researchers better understand menopause and determine when hormone-replacement therapy might be beneficial. "Having a cheap, pennies-on-the-test type of monitoring that's accurate and measures multiple parameters may open up more research in that area," says Kumar Duraiswamy, a physician and MBA candidate involved with the project. Right now, he says, "It's not easy or convenient or cheap for women to go into a testing center."
Galatsis notes that this is just the first application to emerge from a technology platform they hope will have broad uses. The platform is based on research by UCLA nanotechnology researcher Kang Wang and colleague Chongwu Zhou at the University of Southern California. "Our novelty is low-cost, print-anywhere-anytime, off-the-shelf technology," Galatsis says. "We can convert any ink-jet printer just by changing the cartridge [to carbon nanotube ink], so we can print any type of sensors, and make RF circuits, right here."

The St. Kitts and Nevis EPA Implementation Unit has organised, with the assistance of the Ministry of Culture, to host a Workshop on Culture and Creative Industries from the 21st to the 24 May 2013 at the Ocean Terrace Inn (OTI) in Basseterre. Financing for the Workshop came from the 10th EDF Programme (European Development Fund) Technical Cooperation Facility.
The purpose of this Workshop is to promote the importance and value of the Creative and Cultural Industries of St. Kitts and Nevis to the business community, to Government and to the general public in an effort to raise their awareness of and appreciation for cultural goods and services, and to increase the contribution that it makes to the country's GDP.
It is hoped that this effort will help to inform and shape policy development in this sector and form the basis for joint collaboration with regional and European Partners in Culture and Creative Industries, especially those in the 18 to 30 age group so that this work would redound to the benefits of this group.
The Workshop will be held under the Theme "Culture Moving Forward". The Workshop will be divided into four sessions to concentrate on areas of interest of the four different target groups in the following areas:
• Performing arts
• Visual Arts
• Literary Arts
• Culinary Arts
The Workshop will also provide the Ministry of Culture with the opportunity to add key artists to the recently created "St. Kitts and Nevis Creative Industry Registry" (SKNCIR) which is a searchable database of industry service providers.
The EU is keen to establish an EU-CARIFORUM Platform for Culture and Creative Industries to promote business cooperation and cultural exchanges between the relevant EU and CARIFORUM stakeholders. With this in mind, the EPA Unit, Ministry of Culture, and the Culture and Creative Industries would form groups and an Arts Alliance to work on finding cooperation partners and potential business opportunities.

Mayor proposes leaner budget for 2010
October 6, 2009
By Warren Kagarise
Fewer dollars would be set aside for the DownTown Issaquah Association, Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery, Village Theatre and other organizations supported by city money under the 2010 budget unveiled by Mayor Ava Frisinger.
But the mayor spared social service organizations from cutbacks, citing the increased need for the programs amid the economic downturn.
Frisinger proposed a $29.8 million general fund budget for next year — a drop from the $32.3 million general fund budget approved by the council last December. Most of the savings stems from 27 employee vacancies. City officials laid off 15 employees last month and avoided filling vacant positions throughout 2009. In August, seven city employees opted for a severance package and stepped down. The city is down to 228 full-time employees after starting the year with 255.
The proposed budget contains no property tax or rate increases. The city will start the year with about $5.3 million available.
Frisinger said city crews would do less mowing, road restriping, street sweeping and upkeep of city buildings to save money.
The mayor presented the spending plan to City Council members Oct. 5. Frisinger worked with city department leaders to formulate the budget. Weeks of hearings and deliberations follow the annual budget presentation. The council will adopt a budget by late December.
Frisinger recommended a 5 percent cut in funds for FISH and other organizations supported by city dollars.
FISH Executive Director Gestin Suttle said her organization would make a case for the requested $25,000. She said the volunteer group provides a valuable community resource for less than it would cost if the city operated its own hatchery program. Regardless, she said FISH would be grateful for any city money.
"We understand everyone is going through a really tough budget situation," Suttle said.
DownTown Issaquah Association Executive Director Greg Spranger said his organization would turn to businesses to help make up shortfalls related to less city funding. The downtown group uses city money to help put on ArtWalk and Music on the Streets live performances.
"We have such great participation from our businesses," Spranger said.
The layoffs and cuts in nonessential spending came after officials were forced to cut spending mid-year due to declining sales tax revenue and building permit fees. If a mid-year financial forecast showed similar declines in 2010, the mayor said further cuts would be considered.
"We probably would have to look at more layoffs," Frisinger said.
Officials considered employee furloughs as well, but the idea was dropped after city leaders realized a furlough program could be problematic.
"We could continue to function, but things would be much slower," Frisinger said.
