A father of six who has spent a quarter of his life behind bars was rejected Friday from being admitted into Morris County's Drug Court program and was sentenced to seven years in prison for burglaries he committed.
Six Morristown police officers who are familiar with defendant Eugene Hayes Jr., 41, because of his drug distribution and burglary crimes showed up in Superior Court to support Morris County Assistant Prosecutor Anthony Scibetta's opposition to Hayes being admitted to Drug Court.
Hayes pleaded guilty on June 5 to three burglaries and one count of receiving stolen property -- ...

|MRI-guided prostate biopsy detects clinically significant cancer: analysis of a cohort of 100 patients after previous negative TRUS biopsy.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21512807 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|PURPOSE: To investigate the positive biopsy rate of MRI-guided biopsy (MR-GB) in a routine clinical setting, identify factors predictive for positive biopsy findings and to report about the clinical significance of the diagnosed tumors. METHODS: Patients with at least one negative trans-rectal-ultrasound-guided biopsy (TRUS-GB), persistently elevated or rising serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) and at least one lesion suspicious for PCa on diagnostic 1.5 Tesla endorectal coil MRI (eMR) were included. Biopsies were carried out using a 1.5 Tesla MRI and an 18 G biopsy gun. Clinical information and biopsy results were collected; logistic regression analysis was carried out. Definite pathology reports of patients with diagnosis of PCa and subsequent radical prostatectomy (RP) were analyzed for criteria of clinical significance. RESULTS: One hundred patients were included, mean number of previous biopsies was 2 (range 1-9), mean PSA at time of biopsy was 11.7 ng/ml (1.0-65.0), and mean prostate volume was 46.7 ccm (range 13-183). In 52/100 (52.0%) patients, PCa was detected. Out of 52 patients, 27 patients with a positive biopsy underwent RP, 20 patients radiation therapy, and 5 patients active surveillance. In total, 80.8% of the patients revealed a clinically significant PCa. In univariate regression analysis, only serum PSA levels were predictive for a positive biopsy result. Number of preceding negative biopsies was not associated with the likelihood of a positive biopsy result. CONCLUSIONS: MR-GB shows a high detection rate of clinically significant PCa in patients with previous negative TRUS-GB and persisting suspicion for PCa.

History: The ARES FMG is a folding submachine gun designed by Eugene Stoner while he was an owner of ARES Incorporated. Stoner designed the gun for concealment and covert use, describing it as a "businessman's personal defense weapon". Allegedly, Stoner had the idea of a defense weapon for VIPs and CEOs following the numbers of kidnappings of many of such persons in South America during the early 1980s. While the design was finalized, and a few functional copies produced, the FMG never entered full production.

2011 Recipient | AIA Institute Honor Awards for Architecture
North Carolina Museum of Art | Notes of Interest
Inside the North Carolina Museum of Art, the light of day and the lush surrounding hills have a presence unusual in institutional galleries for art. Overhead, hundreds of elliptical occuli, in long, parallel, coffered vaults bathe the museum's interior in even, full-spectrum daylight, modulated in intensity by layered materials that filter out damaging rays. In the gently luminous setting, against pure white walls, the artwork takes on heightened immediacy and vividness.
A departure from traditional hierarchies, the museum, in some respects, is a single 65,000-square-foot room. Within this spatial continuum, a succession of wall planes, many freestanding without reaching the ceiling, delineate separate galleries. But none of the spaces forms a discrete, fully enclosed room. Instead, a corner or two of each gallery remains open, inviting flow from one area to the next.
Outside the building skin—a rain screen of pale, matte anodized-aluminum panels, sheaths the museum and carries on the discourse with the landscape. These aluminum sheets, arrayed like great vertical pleats or shingles, softly pick up surrounding colors and movement. From oblique vantage points, the underlying strips of mirror-polished stainless steel that angle the panels off the facade capture unexpected, fragmented,and scintillating reflections.
The expansion galleries at the North Carolina Museum of Art will provide a distinct visitor experience in a state-of-the-art "energy smart" building. Naturally illuminating the interior environment provides color rendering and light levels ideal for viewing art, while efficient temperature and air quality controls, lighting and envelope systems provide the ideal interior environment for preserving North Carolina's priceless collection of art.

Jury Comments
Worthy of recognition for the precision and technology that went into the design of the ceiling and light well – the way daylight is brought into this building is ingenious.
From a distance, the building appears as a normal industrial building fitting into its context – upon approach it is an amazingly precise and elegant box.
Very unique for a museum in that it contributes to the overall master plan for this part of the city.

Big difference between 1999 and 2008 as we have the greatest credit crunch since the Great Depression. Derivatives in the hundreds of trillions and bad banking decisions by those in charge. Couple this with gov't and consumer debt that exceeds $100 trillion and comparing 1999 to current conditions is like comparing the middle ages to the industrial revolution.
This person familiar with the firm has no clue...obviously an equity guy that has no empathy for the scale of the credit derivatives tsunami that will hit this firm!!
According to Barrons' calculation, even in run-off state, which is what MBIA is in now and maybe for the next a couple years down, MBIA stiil worth about $40 as its current policy run off over decades. When all teh dust settle down, it could earn a decent earning, but I am not sure if it could be 10 fold. After all, MBIA didn't earn that kind of return in the old good days.

At the end of last week, left-wing bloggers thought they had a great story. Citing anonymous sources, some claimed our office played a role in encouraging conservative bloggers to criticize the Frost family, whose son recently gave the Democrats' radio address on the issue of health care. While we regularly read and comment on blog posts -- even raising doubts last week about blog posts claiming the Frost family was ineligible for SCHIP -- bloggers had been commenting on this issue long before we raised any questions about those posts. In other words, blogs neither needed nor received any assistance or encouragement from this office.
Then a liberal talk-show host and a liberal opinion columnist at The New York Times, parroting the same anonymous sources, also credited our office with playing a role in starting the investigation.
While that is not the case, our office did play a significant role in making sure the mainstream media knew there was nothing to the complaints against the Frost family. As I pointed out to reporters -- more than a week ago -- the family is "legit," and there is "no story" there. Most reporters agree with my assessment, which is why only left-wing columnists and bloggers and others who seek political advantage seem to still be interested.
Communications Director
U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell
Washington 20005
'Character assassination'
I understand that Paul Krugman is one of the most liberal columnists writing today, and I appreciate that The Courier-Journal's editorial policy is liberal as well.
In addition, there's no doubt that Sen. Mitch McConnell's senior position in the U.S. Senate makes him No. 1 on the liberals' hit list in next year's election.
But even given that, Krugman's column on the proposed expansion of SCHIP, published in the Sunday Forum section on Oct. 14, establishes a new extreme in character assassination.
To those who only read the headlines and scanned the write-up, McConnell has "smeared," "slimed," "go(ne) after" and "unfairly attack(ed)" a brain-damaged 12-year-old boy. I read Krugman's article three times, looking for this personal "smear."
All I could find was that McConnell's office issued an e-mail to the press asking how the Democratic Party could have done such a poor job in vetting the Frost family before making them their spokesmen for a radical expansion of the program.
How is this construed as "sliming" a poor, unfortunate child?
The column leaves the impression that McConnell, and by extension the Republican Party, is voting to let Graeme Frost lie suffering in an abandoned refrigerator box in an alley somewhere until he has the good grace to quietly die of his injuries. Yet the actual figures in Krugman's write-up seem to indicate the opposite. The Frost family income is listed as $45,000. SCHIP, which McConnell and the Republican Party support expanding (though to a lesser degree than Harry Reid & Co. advocate), currently covers children in Maryland whose families make over $10,000 more than that amount.
Perhaps the key to the whole debate is found in Krugman's last paragraph. He presents his sincere belief that it is the responsibility of the federal government to financially support the children of any parent who fails, even out of malice, his/her own offspring. That's an attractive and even noble philosophy, but it ignores the same point that supporters of all ultra-liberal fiscal programs manage to forget: Once the government takes on that role, how many parents who currently accept responsibility for their children will happily step back, put a down payment on that new plasma TV or bass boat, and let Uncle take care of the kids?

Facts were omitted
As usual, you report the truth and facts, but only the truth and facts that fit your story. You omitted the part about the 12-year old's family. They have their own business, and the father's salary is paid from that business. Does he enjoy company profits, bonuses? The parents of this boy made a conscious choice not to purchase health care. Yet the boy did receive medical treatment. How did that happen? Now they want the government to pay for long-term care for a child they did not care enough about to purchase health insurance.
Get all the facts.
Shepherdsville, Ky. 40165
Stuck in mud
It is reassuring and admirable for the distinguished senator from Kentucky to be a champion for the people of Myanmar (Burma). It is good to see evidence of his positive work. However, why is the critical opinion piece by Paul Krugman so prominently placed in the print version of Sunday's C-J -- and not placed on the Web site as well?
I guess we'll just have to return to The New York Times to find the balance in our informative opinion pieces.
Why would that be necessary, I wonder?
In addition, would it be too difficult for the senator to concentrate his efforts as well on remanding the misleading and criminal administration of his own country?
This is an elected official who, after all, has the ears of highest-level "officials" in government, as well as control of half the Senate. He has the power to make a difference and apparently wants to make a difference, at least in Myanmar.
Yet he remains stuck in the mire of political mud and "bush league" policies that have been proven thousands of times to be detrimental to progress and even mankind (i.e., lies, hidden agendas, stating one policy and doing the opposite, not to mention unjustified pre-emptive war creating many times more enemies than we could ever imagine).
Wake up, Senator.
Your constituents already have.

'Tugging on heartstrings'
After reading Paul Krugman's article in Sunday's C-J, I have to ask, Where did anyone smear Graeme Frost? What I read is the right's response to misinformation. To Krugman, pointing out misinformation or partial truths is a smear.
My first question is if Graeme Frost was injured in a car accident, why isn't someone's auto insurance paying the medical bills? Krugman claims that $1,200 per month is the cheapest insurance that his family could find. Any of us who have health insurance know that those numbers don't fly. I have the best BC/BS Anthem policy available, and I only pay $200 a month over that. Less expensive policies with higher deductibles are available everywhere.
Krugman mentioned Michael J Fox and his appearance on national television prior to the last mid term election. What was not mentioned is that Fox later admitted that he didn't take all of his medication that day so that his Parkinson symptoms would be exaggerated for the television cameras -- once again, tugging on the heartstrings of the average viewer.
Once again, the left is using the injured and sick to pull at your emotions, and attempt to further their political agenda. Where is the conscience of these people?

Luau to continue Franklin Regional's healing process
A group of Franklin Regional parents wants the summer to start on a healing note.
FR Families Strong, a group of local parents who participate in the All Pro Dads and iMoms groups, will host a community luau Friday. The event is intended to help families come together to celebrate summer and heal and to strengthen families after the April 9 stabbings at the high school, organizer father Matthew Olszewski said.
"Together is a pretty powerful word in responding," Olszewski said. "This was built on stronger families — the fathers, the mothers and us all coming together."
The new group's motto — "Together we can, together we will" — underscores that idea, Olszewski said. The All Pro Dads group has focused on the idea of empowering family unity at home for the past four years.
After April 9, Olszewski said he and some other dads realized that there were no easy answers for those affected.
"When the stabbing incident happened, everyone felt completely vulnerable," Olszewski said. "Everyone wanted to reach out to the community around them — the victims, the suspect, everyone affected. There was a real sense of community pride."
The luau is another piece in the process of helping the community heal, Olszewski said. Proceeds from the night, which will include the raffle of a donated Samsung television, will go to a fund that benefits the victims.
The event will include food, music, a Hawaiian band, and hula and fire dancing — a lot of fun to help families come together, Olszewski said.
Parents and students also are organizing a banner signing at the luau to help the community reach out to Reynolds High School in Oregon, where a school shooting killed one teen and injured a teacher earlier this month.
Organizer Beth McCormick said many members of the Franklin Regional community wanted to "pay it forward" in appreciation of the support that poured out from across the country in the weeks after the April 9 incident.

We value thoughtful comments representing a range of views that make their point quickly and politely. We make an effort to protect discussions from repeated comments either by the same reader or different readers.
We follow the same standards for taste as the daily newspaper. A few things we won't tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING. Don't include URLs to Web sites.
We do not edit comments. They are either approved or deleted. We reserve the right to edit a comment that is quoted or excerpted in an article. In this case, we may fix spelling and punctuation.
We welcome strong opinions and criticism of our work, but we don't want comments to become bogged down with discussions of our policies and we will moderate accordingly.
We appreciate it when readers and people quoted in articles or blog posts point out errors of fact or emphasis and will investigate all assertions. But these suggestions should be sent via e-mail. To avoid distracting other readers, we won't publish comments that suggest a correction. Instead, corrections will be made in a blog post or in an article.

I am still under 1k for these one (hint - not really truthful Treadwer rating). Bought them for the vehicle to be sold, but we decided to keep it. So far - so good. Quiet, sticky, comfortable. I am impressed.
I didn't test them in wet conditions yet and I will not use them in winter, so you can disregard my rating for wet/snow.

Moving from the OEM low profile tires to these ones was an aesthetic hit. Very quiet and grippy tires. Only reason snow is rated '0' is because been driving only for the summer so far. Good on wet roads and respectable stopping distance. Great for the price.

I have purchased these tires several times off ebay. I think these tires handle extremely well and are very sticky, can barely get the GTO to burn out with them on. The tread life has been awesome as well. The only problem that I think is hard to get around is the road noise can sometimes be really loud. My wife complains all the time that my car is too loud. The exhaust sound plus the engine and then road noise, does equal a loud car! It doesn't bother me. I think that for the price of the tires, they're worth it.

One of the biggest fights in UFC history is only a few days away from taking place and the main players are on the ground in Atlanta, ready to take the final steps towards the sweet elation of victory or bitter sting of defeat. Before light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and rival Rashad Evans do in fact lock horns inside the Octagon they will face off on a stage as part of a press conference promoting Saturday night's title-fight at UFC 145.
Fighters.com will be tuned in from the beginning at 1:00 PM EST and relaying live results back to readers as they unfold live from the venue.
Read below to see what each man had to say :
– Says beating Jones is as important as the belt if not more so because of all the hype leading up to their fight
– Has supreme confidence in his ability to take Jones down; has done it before and will do it again
– Likes that he's seen as an underdog
– Doesn't care what the oddsmakers say (Jones is a 5:1 favorite)
– Not sure how much he affected Jones' growth
– Doesn't feel he gets his due respect from fans/media but isn't concerned about it; thinks people will have no choice but to honor him when he's done with MMA; says beating Jones would be huge in that regard
– Hasn't considered the Hall of Fame yet since he's still so focused on his career
– Got sick of talking about Jones based on how much the fight has been promoted
– Thinks Lyoto Machida and Quinton Jackson gave Jones too much time/distance
– Not concerned about any emotional impact inside the cage as far as his performance goes; not as invested in it as he used to be and has only made certain comments based on being asked about it over and over
– Feels Chuck Liddell is the greatest light heavyweight of all time
– Willing to give Evans some credit in terms of helping him develop though didn't mention anything specifically
– Is passionate about being considered the best fighter in the sport
– Reiterates the fight is not personal with Evans even if they've said personal things towards each other; says he'll be as excited about his next bout as he is about this one
– Beating Evans would be huge for his legacy/standing; says Evans is "unquestionably one of the best fighters in the world" and "has the gift of speed, the gift of grappling"
– Has watched Evans' fight with Phil Davis more than 60 times
– Feels confident in his supreme knowledge of Evans' attack based on studying and his coaching
– Isn't sure if Evans is still in his prime or not
– Isn't positive Evans has improved since leaving Greg Jackson's camp but knows he's different; credits Evans for having a good "six pack" in his fight against Tito Ortiz
– Motivation from the hype pushed him to exceed his own expectations in camp
– Understands Evans may take him down but he's prepared for everything and could even see himself stopping Evans before a takedown occurs
– Won't go as far as to call Evans a "whiner" but has no sympathy for him based on the things he's said about the coaching staff
– Says Tito Ortiz is the best 205er of all time
– Calls Stephan Bonnar his toughest opponent to date

You can't argue with free beer. I mean, you can try. You won't get far, though.
Then again, is this beer really free? They've just worked like a bazillion hours! Some might argue that the beer isn't so much free as it is earned.
I'm trying a new update schedule of late. WOT will be updating three times a wee; Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Is that cool? Can you roll with that? Awesome.

I am a lifelong resident of York city and former teacher in York City School District. I oppose the all-charter proposal now being considered by the committee for financial recovery for York City Schools.
My opposition is based on several reasons. First, education is not a business, but for-profit and many non-profit charter companies would treat it as such. Second, by and large charters have not performed better than public schools. Third, charters in York city have drained the district of resources vital to public schools -- engaged parents, finances, more motivated students -- while neglecting children with special needs, behavior problems or second language issues.
I hope the committee will objectively review the internal plan for reform presented by district personnel. Certainly some charter schools are highly touted for their innovations and successes. I suggest that the chief reason for these results is that the staffs of the schools were energized and excited about the engagement in a positive effort. A locally designed reform effort could be expected to generate the same level of energy and enthusiasm.
I hope the committee will not choose to join the charter bandwagon. With renewed commitment from the school, civic and business community, as well as parents, the district could replicate the aspects of charters which many find attractive without abandoning the principles of education in a democracy which have served us so well for so long.

I have to be honest. I couldn't wait to get to the pool that afternoon and watch Drew swim. I think the parents in the stands were more nervous and anxious than the boys on the deck. An excitement and energy rippled through the building as we all stood for the national anthem and then settled in to watch the boys swim.
As the meet progressed, the score remained close through the halfway point. We won some races, and they won some races. Finally, the time came for the 50-meter freestyle.
There were three heats in this event, and Drew swam in the third heat. I was a wreck. Every parent in the building feel silent as the four fastest freestylers from each team stepped up on the starting blocks.
The announcer called the swimmers to "ready." I took and held in a deep breath and focused on the skinny swimmer in lane eight.
"Set" was the last discernible word spoken, followed by the loud beep of the starter's horn. After that, all the sounds melded together into an indiscernible roar.
Eight young men sliced into the pool and swam with all their might. As they came to the wall, it was close, very close—less than two seconds separated 4th from 8th place. And from my angle I couldn't tell who finished in what position. Drew could have been 5th or he could have been in 8th place, I just didn't know. Again the pool area fell silent as the times flashed up on the board.
The skinny kid in lane eight finished 7th, and I was delighted. He did not score (only the top 5 score), but he did swim the 50-yard freestyle in under 30 seconds—29.79. As a matter of fact, every boy in that heat swam under 30 seconds.
Several important things happened in that moment. As the crowd erupted in a fresh round of cheers, my son looked up into the stands and found his mother and me. When our eyes met, he pointed to the scoreboard and pumped his fist. I nodded vigorously and gave him the thumbs up. In this precious moment, the Lord reminded me that relationship and delight trump excellence every time.
God delights in us because we are His sons and daughters. Whether we come in 1st or 7th or 208th place, His eyes are on us. He wants the best for us, and He wants us to do our best. But never forget that our ability to excel has no bearing on God's desire to love and express delight in us as His children.

Very nice pics folks. Indy, believe it or not, the one of yours I liked best in your pages was the Lincoln Office door. Stark simplicity is good sometimes. Since I wouldn't be eligible even if we do throw a contest, no harm in showing off my favorite I guess. We have over a thousand photos we've take on various battlefields, but I've only liked two of them enough to get them enlarged - this one and one of Dunker Church....
That's funny you mention the door. (Actually, it's the door to his home.)Someone else said it was their favorite too. I already had a close-up photo in mind for their next contest, but I may have to rethink that and possibly use this one.

Requesting Additional Accommodations
Students that are dissatisfied with their accommodations are asked to contact the Disability Office to discuss different options, or get additional assistance.
Students have the opportunity to request accommodations above and beyond the normal scope of the Disability Office. Students may submit requests for additional accommodations through the Disability Office, who then present the request to the ADA Executive Decision Committee. The Committee will review the student's request as well as their documentation before rendering a determination.
If the student is dissatisfied with the determination made by the ADA Executive Decision Committee, (s)he can appeal the determination to the Provost of Grand Canyon University. To file a second appeal, the student will contact the Student Disabilities Office, which will forward the appeal to the University Provost, and which will advise the student of the Provost's decision. The Provost's decision will stand as the final decision of the University.
Grand Canyon University reserves the right to deny a student's request for accommodations or to suggest alternative accommodations if the student cannot provide appropriate documentation of a disability or if the student's request impacts the academic integrity of the Institution as outlined in Wynne v Tufts University School of Medicine, (1991).
"If the institution submits undisputed facts demonstrating that the relevant officials within the institution considered alternative means, their feasibility, cost and effect on the academic program, and came to a rationally justifiable conclusion that the available alternatives would result either in lowering academic standards or requiring substantial program alteration, the court could rule as a matter of law that the institution had met its duty of seeking reasonable accommodation."

Free Tax Filing Assistance
Preparing and filing your income taxes can be difficult under any circumstances. Those with disabilities, however, may not be able to afford professional tax services and feel that they have to go it alone.
Fortunately, that's not the case. There are many free or low-cost tax assistance options available to those with limited incomes. The following are some helpful tax resources for you to consider:
- IRS Free File
- Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)
- Low Income taxpayer Clinics (LITC)
- AARP Tax-Aide Program
- State Tax Return Preparation Assistance
IRS Free File
The IRS offers taxpayers with an adjusted gross income of $60,000 or less in 2014 the opportunity to electronically prepare and file their federal tax returns for free under the Free File (LINK) program. This program is offered by the IRS in partnership with several private sector tax software companies. The IRS and its partners also offer another option called Free File Fillable Tax Forms which essentially makes Free File available to everyone (even those with incomes over $60,000).
Offered in both English and Spanish, Free File is available through the IRS website. At the IRS site, a list of private tax prep companies participating in the program is provided. Please remember that to get your federal tax return prepared for free, you must go through the IRS site.
Also keep in mind that this program only covers federal tax returns. While at the Free File preparer's site, you may have them prepare your state tax return or purchase additional services for a fee.
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)
This program offers free tax help to people generally earning $53,000 or less in 2014 who can't afford to pay a professional preparer. Trained volunteers help prepare basic returns for low-income taxpayers and many locations offer free electronic filing.
Over 8,000 VITA centers are conveniently located in communities throughout the United States. To find a location in your area, or for more information about the VITA program, call the IRS at (800) 906-9887.
Low Income Taxpayer Clinics (LITC)
The LITC program provides low income taxpayers with representation in federal tax controversies with the IRS for free or for a nominal charge. The services offered include:
- Assisting with tax audits
- Conducting tax appeals
- Helping with collection disputes
- Drafting responses to IRS notices
- Correcting account problems
Though partially funded by the federal government, the clinics are operated by non-profit organizations and academic institutions. Each clinic operates independently, with separate income guidelines and other criteria for deciding who qualifies for representation.
Though located in every state and Puerto Rico, LITC locations are limited. To find the nearest clinic, please visit the IRS website.
AARP Tax-Aide Program
As part of an IRS-sponsored program (TCE), AARP offers the Tax-Aide counseling program at more than 7,000 sites nationwide during the filing season. Trained and certified AARP Tax-Aide volunteer counselors help people of low-to-middle income with special attention to those age 60 and older. To find an AARP Tax-Aide site near you, please click here or call (888) 227-7669.
State Tax Return Preparation Assistance
Many state revenue departments offer free walk-in assistance with the preparation and electronic filing of state personal income tax returns. To get help, taxpayers must generally provide:
- A copy of their completed current federal income tax return
- W-2's
- 1099s
- Any other documentation indicating withholding
- Social Security card (including a spouse's card if applicable)
- Some form of photo identification
To check on the availability of such help, where such help is offered and any specific requirements for the service, please check your state revenue department's website.
The resources provided above should be enough to get you started. However, there are many other free taxpayer assistance programs offered throughout the country. Check your community newspapers and other local resources as well.

Ikpefua Jacob-Obinyan wrote:Hello Hama Kamal,
I have a 'pop-quiz' that might even lead to figuring out the answers to your doubts... it is as follows;

Let me know what you think, and if this does not clarify your doubts we can continue from there...

You are having some misconception, i will make you understand.
Classes with default access is available or accessible only to classes within same package where as in the case of public it is accessible to all the classes in java Universe.
package p;
class A
Now class A is having default so it can only be accessible to classes in package P
So in order to use class A or if you wanna make a reference to it in your class then you need to either use its fully qualified name or
you simply import it.
by importing you give a short name to the fully qualified name
import java.p.A;
class Your_Class
A obj=new A();
if you had not imported then you would have to use fully qualified name i.e
class Your_Class
p.A obj=new p.A();
Both the examples are legal providing they are in same package p
In case of public modifier to a class it is available to whole Java Universe.
I hope i helped You..

The first question is somewhat 'ambiguous', because a specific scenario will make one explain better, now the second question(quite specific) has a direct answer 'YES'. This is because an import statement and inheritance(extends) are two different things, However it is important to understand both concepts.
Ikpefua Jacob-Obinyan wrote:Hello Hama,
can you try everything you have just asked by coding?...Yes I mean write test programs, create packages, declare classes inside the packages, carryout imports and extends of classes between packages with different access modifiers and write down your findings, "personal experience is the best teacher".

NAMM 2014: M-Audio Trigger Finger Pro
M-Audio's Trigger Finger was one of the first MPC pad style controller only devices. Its been a while since M-Audio revisited that particular model. At the NAMM 2014 show, they are introducing the Trigger Finger Pro.
Its a nice looking machine with a large, three line LCD monitor, 16 pads and MIDI and USN connections while still being bus-powered.
Available in the Spring 2014 at $399
M-Audio unexpectedly brings out something that looks like NI Maschine but with 16-Step Sequencer Line – this is basically Drum Pads and a jam-type of sequencer like the Akai MAX49 has, so – this is still a controller not a groovebox or host or even a drummachine. that sequencer can not be reprogrammed but could be a cool tool if one could access it – it has built in midi as well to send the sequences somewhere. since M-Audio belongs to the Akai/Numark/Alesis Group (inMusic) this might be the same concept as the MAX Keyboards but as a pad controller. 4 memory banks – so really just for jamming.

Review of M-Audio Venom Synth and Editor

M-Audio VENOM mapped to an Ozonic via MIDI CC
Really nice video
I wanted to try out my new M-Audio Venom synth with an external knob controller, so I hooked it up to my old school M-Audo Ozonic via MIDI , mapped out 16 CCs to the knobs and sliders (ADSR on the sliders, cutoff, resonance, ocillator pitch etc on the knobs), and it worked great!
After tweaking around with that for a bit , I recorded some basslines right from the phrase sequencer in Venom into Ableton Live while tweaking them in real time. Then I added some drumloops, and a synth accent from Ableton's Operator FM synth, which actually is the only MIDI sequenced part here.
Here's what I came up with.
P.S.-I am really digging this Venom! It's a pretty inspiring piece of kit, has killer sounds and the audio interface works great with Ableton. Next vid, I'll try some stuff with the audio inputs.

A Life-Extending Pill for Fat Mice
A compound found in red wine keeps obese mice healthy and extends their life span.
A compound found in red wine keeps middle-aged mice on a high-fat, high-calorie diet as healthy as mice on a healthy diet, according to research at the National Institute on Aging and Harvard Medical School.
The compound, called resveratrol, also improves the mice's survival rates, extending them to the same lengths as those of mice on a healthy diet. These preliminary results may demonstrate resveratrol's ability to activate molecular pathways thought to be critical regulators of the aging process. Indeed, the researchers say the mouse study is the first demonstration in mammals of the activation of known genetic pathways affecting life span by a drug–a good sign for researchers and pharmaceutical companies that hope to treat the diseases of aging by developing drugs that intervene in these pathways.
Human obesity is associated with a higher risk of diabetes and heart disease, and of age-related diseases such as cancer. Mice on a high-fat, high-calorie diet have similar problems: the control group in this study exhibited elevated blood levels of glucose and insulin (early signs of diabetes), fatty livers, unhealthy hearts, relatively poor motor coordination, and changes in gene-expression patterns that correlate with unhealthy diets.
Treating mice on such an unhealthy diet with resveratrol starting in middle age appeared to alleviate the negative health effects of obesity, although the mice did not lose weight. They have healthy livers and hearts, and their insulin sensitivity is comparable to that of mice on a healthy diet, as are their motor skills. And "most amazingly," says Rafael de Cabo, a head researcher on the project and also a researcher in gerontology at the National Institute on Aging, resveratrol reverses almost all of the diet-induced changes in gene expression–changes that may contribute to heart disease, cancer, and other maladies.
While the life-extending effects of resveratrol have previously been demonstrated in yeast, roundworms, fruit flies, and fish, this is the first comprehensive demonstration of the compound's health benefits in mice. The mice in the study are currently 27 to 28 months old; their life expectancy is 32 to 36 months, and time will tell whether resveratrol increases the maximum life span of the mice on the high-fat diet. However, according to research published in the journal Nature, the survival rates of the resveratrol-treated mice on the high-fat diet are comparable to those of mice on a normal diet (at 114 weeks old, 42 percent of both groups had died), while more mice in the high-fat, no-treatment group have died (at 114 weeks old, 58 percent had died).
"Overall, the results are quite striking," says Richard Weindruch, professor of medicine at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who studies the effects of low-calorie diets on life span and health (see "The Fountain of Health" and "Do Dieting Monkeys Live Healthier and Longer Lives?"). He says the study demonstrates "a rather remarkable effect of resveratrol to oppose a highly toxic diet."
There have been some previous scientific reports of the beneficial health effects of red wine and resveratrol supplements in humans. "This was not a molecule we just pulled off the shelf," says David Sinclair, the associate professor of pathology at Harvard who headed the study with de Cabo. Sinclair's previous research has demonstrated that in yeast, resveratrol extends life span, and that it activates a gene called Sir2, a master regulator of aging in these organisms. The mouse study takes the next step, says Sinclair, asking, "Is there any hint [that] resveratrol can improve health in mammals?"

Metro Route 120-related work starts next week at 26th/BartonNovember 7, 2012 at 5:22 pm | In Transportation, West Seattle news, West Seattle traffic alerts | 8 Comments
Along the Metro Route 120 corridor, work has been under way to boost the busy route's efficiency, and the county says another round will start in about a week:
King County Metro Transit launches another round of construction in West Seattle next week, focusing on improvements that will help pedestrians and bus riders for Route 120 – one of Metro's top 10 busiest routes.
Up to eight weeks of work are planned starting as soon as November 13 at the intersection of Southwest Barton Street and 26th Avenue Southwest just south of Westwood Village.
Crews will have construction under way on each of the corners of the intersection. On the southeast corner they'll build a "bus bulb" – sidewalk extensions that allow buses to serve passengers without pulling out of traffic. On the southwest corner, they'll build similar sidewalk extensions to improve pedestrian access. Other work includes traffic signal modifications and improved pedestrian ramps on the other corners.
During construction, drivers and buses might face minor delays or detours as traffic lanes and driveway access are temporarily shifted or modified. Crews plan to keep traffic flowing in both directions of Southwest Barton Street and 26th Avenue Southwest by shifting traffic around single lane closures. The bus stop on 26th Avenue Southwest will be temporarily relocated and pedestrians will be directed to temporary detours as the construction area changes in coming weeks.
Pedestrians and bus riders who need more specific information about construction can leave a message at 206-684-1162 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
The work is part of the larger $2.8 million Route 120 Transit Improvement Project funded by a State Regional Mobility Grant and King County matching funds. It is led by King County Metro Transit and coordinated with the city of Seattle and the city of Burien.
Metro recently completed a half-mile-long northbound bus lane along a key stretch of Delridge Way Southwest, expected to improve travel times and reliability approaching the West Seattle Bridge during the morning commute. The bus lane operates 6-9 a.m. weekdays from Southwest Oregon Street to Southwest Andover Street and helps reduce signal and queuing delays for Metro bus routes 120 and 125, benefitting more than 900 riders during the morning commute.
The overall project improvements include:
Reducing the number of closely spaced bus stops to help buses move faster and operate on a more reliable schedule.
Improving features at bus stops.
Adding a northbound bus lane and bike lanes on Delridge Way Southwest
Installing a bus bulb – a sidewalk extension allowing buses to serve passengers without pulling out of traffic at 26th Avenue Southwest and Southwest Barton Street.
Installing transit signal priority at key signals between the Burien Transit Center and the West Seattle Bridge.
All project work is expected to be completed by June 2013. Project details are online at metro.kingcounty.gov/have-a-say/projects/route120/. Information about transit trip planning, construction reroutes and other transit information is available at metro.kingcounty.gov.

I saw a C Line bus turning left (south) from SW Roxbury onto 35th Ave SW? Is the C Line expanding to Arbor Heights?
Comment by Beto Álvarez — 5:38 pm November 7, 2012 #
I am still waiting for some relief in the flow of traffic in the AM to get downtown. The back up on 35th trying to get on WS bridge is way worse!!
Comment by denbol — 6:53 pm November 7, 2012 #
Great. That's really going to help with all the traffic at Westwood Village.
Comment by Amanda — 6:56 pm November 7, 2012 #
I think the C Line was going South on 35th as a detour due to the gas leak road closure on Fauntleroy by the Church.
Comment by W Bell — 7:09 pm November 7, 2012 #
Yes, and that's over now.
Does anyone know how we can stop the bus bulbs? I see the one in front of the Feedback and Zeeks and it just crazy!
Where/who can we email a protest too? Which official is responsible for letting this happen?
Comment by Sunny@206 — 2:31 pm November 8, 2012 #
SDOT has jurisdiction over the streets but this is being done on behalf of King County Metro.
Contact info for SDOT is at http://seattle.gov/transportation
Does Metro have to get permission from a sdot department?

But federal wildlife officials announced Wednesday that the predator has made its biggest stride yet. Annual survey results show there are at least 75 wolves in the wild in Arizona and New Mexico, the most since the federal government began efforts to return the wolves to their historic range in 1998.
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regional director Benjamin Tuggle attributed the boost in population to management efforts aimed at reducing conflicts between the wolves and ranchers and other rural residents.
Over the years, the number of wolves has gone up and down, and Tuggle acknowledged that more work needs to be done to tackle the persistent challenges that have prevented the program from being more successful.
"We recognize the largest threats to the populations that we have on the landscape continue to be genetic diversity and illegal mortality," he said.
The plan this year, he said, is prevent more wolf shootings and to infuse more genetic diversity into the population. That could mean more releases of captive-bred wolves into the wild.
The estimates released by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are based on ground and aerial surveys done in recent weeks. There are at least 38 wolves in New Mexico and 37 in Arizona.
The survey also indicated there were three breeding pairs among the 13 packs that were identified. There were twice as many breeding pairs last year, but officials noted that 20 pups were born in 2012 and survived through the end of the year, marking the 11th consecutive year in which wild-born wolves bred and raised pups in the wild.
Larry Voyles, director of the Arizona Game and Fish Department, said one of the keys to success is increasing the percentage of the population that's born in the wild. Now, all but one of the wolves on the ground in New Mexico and Arizona were born in the wild.
Environmentalists argued that building a sustainable population isn't likely when there are so few breeding pairs. They said Mexican wolves are facing a "genetic crisis."
The Mexican wolf, a subspecies of the gray wolf, once roamed New Mexico, Arizona, Texas and Mexico. Hunting and government-sponsored extermination campaigns all but wiped out the predator. It was added to the federal endangered species list in 1976.
Returning the wolves to the wild has been hampered by everything from politics to illegal killings. Disputes over management of the program also have spurred numerous legal actions by environmentalists who have been pushing for more wolves to be released and ranchers who are concerned about their livelihoods and safety in rural communities.
The new population estimates come as federal officials attempt to revamp a decades-old plan that guides wolf management. A draft proposal calls for establishing rules for wolves that migrate into other parts of Arizona and New Mexico and into West Texas.
