Colts cornerback Jerraud Powers (25) disrupts this pass for Houston Texans wide receiver Jacoby Jones (12) last season. Powers remains the only seasoned cornerback on the Colts roster.
- Filed Under
It won't be noticeable and isn't NFL-issued, but Jerraud Powers and the rest of the Indianapolis Colts cornerbacks plan on wearing a special uniform accessory this season.
That will be a chip firmly affixed on their shoulder.
They've read and heard about perceived shortcomings at the position ad nauseam, and are eager to prove their critics wrong. ...

This see-through Pontiac will make you think you have X-ray vision
Although it might look like a manipulated image at first glance, this unusual Pontiac is the real deal. The car was originally built by GM as one of two or three transparent display cars for the 1939 and 1940 World Fairs for $25,000 (an astronomical sum at the time). »

Kids and teachers aren't the only ones going back to school. Cops will be there, too.
Teachers and students aren't the only ones about to return to the classroom.
Police officers will be there, too.
Students who attend Northwest Local Schools will have a new full-time Canal Fulton police officer on campus.
Dennis Muntean, a seven-year veteran of the city force, is the school's new, full-time school resource officer (SRO) — Monday through Friday. He'll also be available for Sts. Philip and James, a private school.
"This is going to be a new concept for us," said Canal Fulton Police Chief Douglas Swartz.
Superintendent Michael Shreffler said a resource officer is a new concept for the school system, as well. The district has had a DARE officer, but never an SRO.
DARE, which stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education, is a program in which a police officer who is certified through the Ohio Police Officers Training Academy's DARE training program teaches a class.
The curriculum focuses on providing students "with the skills necessary to recognize and resist pressures to experiment with drugs and to avoid gangs and violence," according to the organization's website. "Lessons emphasize self-esteem, decision making, interpersonal communication skills, the consequences of drug abuse, conflict resolution and positive alternatives to substance abuse."
School resource offices work as a "law enforcement officer, law-related counselor and law-related education teacher," according to the Ohio School Resource Officers Association website.
They patrol the school on foot and conduct inspections. The officers also make referrals to social services, public health agencies and legal aid.
Alliance City Schools don't have DARE officers or SROs, said Lt. John Jenkins. Instead, the city has "adopt-a-school officers," who visit each school for four to six hours a week, interacting with students and helping school officials with any law enforcement need.
Regardless of title, police say, their role is to provide and promote safety.
DARE officers and resource officers carry guns.
Stark County Sheriff's Deputy Melissa Bogunovich is one of only two DARE officers who work in Stark County. Perry Township Police Officer Bill Watson is the other. He teaches a seventh-grade DARE class in the Perry Local district.
Bogunovich has been a DARE officer since 2004, teaching fifth-, seventh- and ninth-grade classes in Marlington Local Schools. She also has a dual role as an SRO, serving as "an extension of the school," she said. She helps with emergency planning and any law enforcement needs such as dealing with students who are unruly or truant.
The DARE program, she said, helps students become "familiar with police officers, to know that someone's there for them," Bogunovich said. "It's a lifeskills program aimed at helping them make good decisions." She teaches classes about Internet safety, the dangers of over-the-counter prescription drugs and anti-bullying.
Page 2 of 2 - "I become the counselor, the parent, the social worker and the teacher. I wear so many hats in the school that pretty much wherever they need me, I go, I do," she said.
Bogunovich has seen a lot of changes in the last nine years in how children address situations, too.
"I see more kids standing up for each other more so, if there is a bully situation, than they did 10 years ago," she said.
But, she said, she also noticed that the fear resulting in a healthy respect for a police officer is no longer there.
"There doesn't seem to be a fear of anything these days. They seem to feel the rules — the laws — don't apply to them," she said.
That's why police officers are so important in school, administrators say.
"They serve as such a positive role model," Shreffler said. "The students get the chance to see a police officer in a positive light. They get to see the officer as a human being." Alternatively, the officer also serves as a deterrent to crime.
Shreffler and Swartz said that adding a police officer in the local school system was in the works long before the school shootings in Chardon in February 2012 and Sandy Hook, Conn. in December 2012.
The schools were annexed into the city about five years ago, he said, adding that "Luckily, all the schools of Northwest are located on the same campus." Sts. Philip & James is nearby.
"We just kind of want to focus on the safety aspect. That's where the SRO comes in," Swartz said.
Muntean's job will be "first overall, to improve the safety of the school campus," the chief said. "He'll also interact with the students as a counselor and as an educator." He may also teach some anti-drug- and alcohol-related classes.
The salary of about $65,000 — which includes wages and benefits — will be paid for by a grant or split by the city and the school. Officials are awaiting word about the grant money.
Police will also have to replace Muntean at the department for everyday law enforcement.
Swartz said the city is hiring a new officer, bringing the force up to 10 full-time officers, three part-time and one reserve.

eBay Watch: Postal Rate Tips and Selling Resources
- 27-Apr-07 |

News and Announcements
In March, eBay announced that changes would be implemented to the Feedback system in eight markets, and this week, Brian Burke, director of global feedback policy, said that these changes would be launched on eBay.com on April 30th.
Under the new policy, buyers can rate sellers on specific aspects of a transaction, such as shipping and communication. Item titles and prices will also be displayed beneath each Feedback comment for 90 days to provide buyers with more information while making their purchasing decisions. EBay posted a FAQ that provides details on all the upcoming changes to the Feedback system.
Also, in anticipation of the upcoming U.S. Postal Service (USPS) rate changes on May 14, eBay announced it is working on ways to help sellers who may be impacted. The company will post detailed information about the new rates and how to prepare for them at the eBay Shipping Center.
The "Research Rates" Tool in the Sell Your Item form has been updated so sellers can research the new rates and services during the listing process. Starting in early May, vendors will be able to click on the "See new rates" link in the Research Rates tool to see the future rate for that service.
EBay's Shipping Calculator will also be updated in early May. The new rates will update automatically to accommodate the majority of items likely to ship after the new rates take effect. On May 14, PayPal shipping labels will calculate the new shipping rates to coincide with the USPS changes, and also beginning on May 14, Priority Mail International will be discounted by 5 percent and Express Mail International will be discounted by 8 percent.
In eBay company news this week, Reuters is reporting that Ticketmaster is suing eBay in Los Angeles, accusing its subsidiary StubHub of fraudulently obtaining premium tickets to sell online. The lawsuit claims that: "StubHub induced artists' representatives or promoters to demand tickets from Ticketmaster's venue clients as part of a deal to bring an act or sports team to a location."
In other news, eBay has been reeling in negative publicity this week after several reports surfaced alleging that Seung-Hui Cho may have purchased ammunition on eBay that was used in the Virginia Tech murder spree. EBay released a press announcement this week making it perfectly clear that guns and ammunition are not permitted, and that while Cho did buy and sell numerous items on eBay in recent months, he did not purchase guns or ammunition on the auction site. EBay added that Mr. Cho purchased empty ammunition clips and a gun holster, items which are unregulated and can be legally bought and sold on eBay as well as in retail stores across the US.
Services and E-Commerce Tools Round-Up
x-percent is offering a new service that allows shoppers to search eBay specifically for discounted and sale merchandise by searching for items store sellers have discounted using EBay's Markdown Manager. X-percent lists only those eBay items on sale and also has been officially certified by the eBay developers program.
For those sellers wanting to focus on selling Antiques and Collectibles, eBay PowerSeller Skip McGrath, just released a new book titled "How To Sell Art, Antiques and Collectibles on eBay." The book is a basic guide aimed at beginners that deals not only with the basics of selling on eBay, but with the specifics necessary to sell expensive, art, antiques and collectibles.
UniteU Technologies, Inc., updated its Connected Commerce eStore platform (version 4.94) with several new features. They added security and performance improvements, including access to the Akamai Dynamic Content delivery system, CISP compliance and an expanded security encryption layer. In the shipping area, USPS rate-calculation has been added and there is a new ship rate estimator as well.
Eye on the Little Guy: The Auction Man Profile
The Auction Man, or TAM for short, offers a free membership that lets you list auctions, purchase items and set-up an eStore for free as well, with no insertion fees. For those interested in upgrading to featured or preferred anchor stores the fees are a mere $3 and $4. The Auction Man also offers additional listing upgrades including bold, highlighted, and category or main page featured at fees ranging from 10 cents to $2. Additional images on listings are also free on TAM. With a tagline of "fighting to keep ecommerce free," you can hardly expect anything other than super-cheap auction listings and storefronts.
|The Auction Man: A Super Hero in Terms of Pricing.
(Click for larger image.)
The traffic numbers, naturally, are important to those online sellers looking for new revenue generating outlets. TAM boasts 339,000 visitors per month, and it appears that even successful eBayers are investing in TAM. One member introduces himself through a TAM eStore by saying, "I am an eBay Powerseller who is expanding in other directions. I have an eBay feedback number of 5798 and a total of 9600 positives. My feedback rating is 99.99 percent." For seasoned eBay sellers, TAM also offers both an eBay feedback and listing migration tool. Using TAM's eBay Listing Migration tool lets approved sellers add relevant eBay listings to their The Auction Man pages.
This month The Auction Man announced new Web site design and hosting packages, leaving many to wonder if this is an ad-revenue sharing plan or a new direction for the Web site. Users of the site have been suggesting that the owner isn't necessarily maintaining TAM and the site does appear to still be working out some glitches. We stumbled across multiple page errors, for example, on the link to reclaim a member password or e-mail verification, and a few stores that are highlighted through the rotation on some categories are empty. Still, as you browse the site, you do see items listed and there are also members with TAM feedback scores, so obviously it is an auction site that is being used to some extent and just might be worth looking into by those sellers wanting to list on multiple auction Web sites.Research and Trends
This week "wii," "xBox 360" and "Apple iPod" still remain in the top three keywords searched for on eBay. Following those top keywords, "PS3," "Webkinz," and "Louis Vuitton" round out the top six searches. For those sellers with items to list in the Cell Phones & PDAs category, here is a snapshot of several related eBay categories and the corresponding top three searches in each for April 26, 2007:
- Cell Phones & PDAs: Cingular, Verizon and Nokia.
- Cell Phones & PDAs> Bluetooth Wireless Accessories: Bluetooth, Motorola Bluetooth and Bluetooth headset.
- Cell Phones & PDAs> Phone & SIM Cards: cell phones, cell phone and Cingular.
- Cell Phones & PDAs> Wholesale & Large Lots: Motorola, Nextel and cell phones.
Only on eBay...
We often hear success stories about people who created their own full-time business selling on eBay, but on the other hand, there are those who buy their next business on eBay. The latter is the focus of our favorite IT this week; a nifty little hot dog vending business. The equipment is in next-to-new condition, and apparently was only used for a few hours.
|Hot Diggety Dog: Sell Your Weenies Walking.
(Click for larger image.)
Included in the auction is two hotdog carts and everything you need to get started selling hot dogs. Also included is a commercial block freezer and a cam chiller cart.
Each New York City style cart comes supplied with essentials such as condiment pans, bun storage containers, a griddle for hamburger and a deep fryer. The winning buyer even gets an enclosed 14-foot trailer to haul it all around in.
So far, more than a dozen bidders have boosted the auction price up to $4,000, but since the seller claims to have paid $14,000 for the whole set-up, we're not surprised to see that the reserve price on this doggie biz hasn't been met yet.Vanige Beal is a frequent contributor to ECommerce-Guide.com.

MONTOPOLIS, TEXAS. Montopolis was four miles southeast of downtown Austin in south central Travis County. The site was settled in the late 1830s, when Jessie C. Tannehill built a cabin and laid out a townsite to be called Montopolis for its location on top of a hill. The town did not develop as expected, probably because Austin was so close. A small community of fifty, however, was in place in the mid-1890s, and a post office called Montopolis opened in January 1897. The census of 1900 listed the Montopolis population as 142, but in 1902 its post office was discontinued, and mail for area residents was sent to Austin. Most of Montopolis proper was annexed by the city of Austin in 1951. Additional portions of the area were annexed during the 1960s and 1970s.

Some Empirical Evidence on the Effects of Shocks to Monetary Policy on Exchange Rates
This paper investigates the effects of shocks to U.S. monetary policy on exchange rates. We consider three measures of these shocks: orthogonalized shocks to the federal funds rate, orthogonalized shocks to the ratio of nonborrowed to total reserves and changes in the Romer and Romer index of monetary policy. In sharp contrast to the literature, we find substantial evidence of a link between monetary policy and exchange rates. Specifically, according to our results a contractionary shock to U.S. monetary policy leads to (1) persistent, significant appreciations in U.S. nominal and real exchange rates and (2) significant, persistent deviations from uncovered interest rate parity in favor of U.S. interest rates.

In the last few days, a man and woman have passed bad checks at two used car lots in Geneva similar to the bogus check cashed at a Dothan service station.
The female suspect has been identified. She is 43-year-old Elizabeth McCarty of Odessa, Texas.
The other suspect is an unidentified male. Police believe him to be in his 50s or 60s. In each instance, he has used a counterfeit check from the Troy Bank and Trust Company.
In addition to Dothan and Geneva, the suspects have reportedly used the phony checks in Mobile and in Columbus, Mississippi.
If you have information about the unidentified suspect or Elizabeth McCarty, you're asked to contact your local law enforcement agency.

P size filters are 85mm wide (could be 84, it doesn't matter much). You can absolutely use a p size filter on an 82mm lens (I do). Whether that causes problems with vignetting or whatnot is another concern: mine is an 8x10 lens with a fair amount of movement available.
77mm is perfectly usable with P size.
Or you could go with the lee holder (4in x 4in) which can be used with the 4x6in filters. If you think you might need to go bigger. I chose P size because it is as large as I currently need and it is much cheaper all the way around. I have a number of filters, and it really makes a difference.

Beguile the taste buds with classic French cuisine combined with modern culinary art that will tantalise and tickle the most adventurous palate.
Using only the freshest locally sourced ingredients Foam Restaurant entices and displays pure sophistication with wine pairing suited to compliment every meal.
Start the meal with dullstroom Trout and Tuna chessboard, preserved lemon and Asian greens dressed in a rocket emulsion.

Foam Restaurant pampers the palate with sophisticated elegance for a truly melt-in-the-mouth pleasure experience.
Le Fournil de Plett is a French bakery in Plettenberg Bay serving breakfast, lunch and 'Truth' coffee. They have specialized in handmade artisan bread using stone ground organic flour.
Bread nowadays has a serious lack of crust but at Le Fournil de Plett you can feel, smell and taste the bread with crust. The French pastries are made using pure butter, Belgian chocolate and organic flour. Wherever possible our ingredients are free range, such as eggs and chicken, and organic, such as salad ingredients, beef and flour.
This is heaven. A peaceful and quite courtyard with fresh handmade artisan bread. There is no hotel breakfast that can compete with the slices of the bread from Le Fournil de Plett Bakery and Café.
Freshness is the key to the business. We recommend lunch and breakfast at the shady courtyard on a summer's day or a table by the cosy fire with a bowl of homemade soup if its cold. Jane and Florence look forward to welcoming you.
*Distances are shown as the crow flies and are not necessarily the actual travelling
In beautiful country surrounds, set amongst oak trees on the shores of Knysna's famous lagoon is Caroline's Bistro.
Sustainable, locally-sourced food is used as much as possible, as are local suppliers, keeping the offerings fresh and flavourful.
The menus are seasonal and therefore change regularly so the choices are kept as fresh as the ingredients that create them!
Casual and laidback, Knysna's bustling food emporium claims that it's "not exactly a restaurant, not exactly a bar, definitely not a deli... well, not exactly a deli... it's an eating place, a drinking place and definitely a meeting place". Well, it's a good place to be if you enjoy fresh seafood and fancy a bit of shopping. 34 South is also "a gift shop, a clothing emporium, a food store, a fish monger and a bakery, too. And the finest wine shop this side of the grape curtain!"
Start with a platter of freshly shucked wild coastal oysters still tasting of salt and sea. Tuck into calamari (tubes, heads and steaks) and mussels (in and out the shell) done in many ways - in vinaigrette, masala, with peri-peri or with wine and garlic. The herring comes six ways, the fish pates four and the mezze too many ways to mention.
Traditional Greek, Spanish and Portuguese themes run through an eclectic menu that highlights Mediterranean flavours - with chicken, ostrich and vegetarian options for diners averse to seafood. With tastebuds still tingling from oysters and bubbly, the mains are sure to tantalise.
Signature dishes tempt with fresh linefish brought in through the Knysna heads, east-coast sole, linefish espetada, Portuguese sardines, jambalaya and seafood paella.
Easily located within the scenic Garden Route and famously known by locals as the place to enjoy made to order, thin crispy pizzas straight from the traditional wood-fired oven with wheat free bases available.
Dine on outdoor terrace or within the large garden on balmy summer days choosing from an array of delicious pastas, potatoe bakes, salads and voluptuously filled pita breads.
Leave enough space for decadent deserts and smouldering coffees for a pleasant, well-rounded day out.

(big sis is "measuring" him!)
Free feet!!
Would it be possible to take some with it on and some with it off? That way you would have both. My 5 year old was born with a lot of health issues, which led to him needing a feeding tube for a few weeks. I have pictures of him during that time with the tube in and without it (he grabbed it and pulled it out a couple times). Now that he is older he likes seeing pictures both ways. It's his story and he is a super brave kid so he likes hearing about all the stuff he overcame as a baby.
Just my two cents. Anything you two decide will be fine
My LO wears a helmet 23 hours a day and we are doing pics without the helmet. I have so many random pics with his helmet on so I know I have captured it.
He's a cutie!
Me & SO (31) been together since August of 2001, friends since 1995!!!
Big sis Gaia born- 2/27/2006 (.Y.) Diamond!
Lil' bro Lucius born 4/11/2012
He's cute either way but since he wears them so much there are probably tons of pictures with them so agreeing with PP maybe just do the family pics without.
he is so cute love the second pic, but for family pics I say without.

i say some on and off. but im a big capture every moment kinda person.

A few weeks ago, Noel Sloboda led participants in the Course in College Teaching Part II through a wonderful reflective exercise about teaching – writing a poem about an object of importance to their teaching. It provided a wonderful moment of reflection and memory about the many students and contexts in which we have taught. I don't like to re-cycle, but that exercise reminded me of something I wrote at the end of the spring semester 2007 about staying motivated and recharging over the summer – it starts with 2 of my favorite teaching stories and why I think today's students need our help more than ever http://bit.ly/104d4qb. Thanks Noel for prompting some powerful memories!

Stop the Cold and Flu!
Thursday, Dec 15, 2011
It's that time of year when we worry about contracting a cold or the flu, which would give us a miserable week or two.
We wash our hands about twenty times a day, but will that be enough? I have four ideas for you to try that some studies say might work to build your immunity to or decrease the severity of colds and the flu.
1. People who exercise at least 20 minutes of moderate activity for five or more days a week experience 43 percent fewer sick days due to upper-respiratory infections compared with people who exercise only one day a week or less. Research has found that exercise helps the body increase the number of immune cells that fight infection.
2. Plan for a full number of hours of normal sleep each night. Plenty of rest keeps the immune system at maximum potential to fight cold and flu bugs.
3. Smile and be happy every day. People who have a positive emotional attitude are less likely to catch a cold or flu than people who have a negative emotional style, according to many studies. Even if a happy person does catch a cold, the symptoms will be much milder.
4. Eat broccoli and cabbage. University of California at Berkeley researchers claim that members of the Brassica family, such as broccoli, cabbage, Brussel sprouts, and kale, contain an enzyme that triggers the production of an immune system-stimulating compound called diindolylmehtane. Don't ask me to pronounce the name of the immunity compound, but it is a good reason to eat more cruciferous vegetables.
Cold and flu bugs are everywhere during the winter months. You can wash you hand constantly, but your body will still be exposed to many airborne bugs. Be friendly and happy. Snooze a full night's sleep. Eat healthy vegetables. And, come to your favorite Cumberland County YMCA for your five days of fun exercise.

Historian Brought Freemasons to Heel
November 12, 2013
(left, Bernard Fay, 1893-1978)
Nazi Germany had to make a show of being anti-Masonic
since its enemies were controlled by Freemasonry.
Bernard Fay seized this brief moment to try to save his beloved France.
by Henry Makow Ph.D.
(From Nov. 16, 2011)
For a brief moment, during the Nazi occupation of France, (1940-1944), Freemasonry met its nemesis. He wasn't a mighty warrior but rather an intellectual.
Harvard-educated historian, Bernard Fay, a member of the College de France and Director of the National Library, headed an investigative unit that rooted out Freemasons.
Working for Vichy President Philippe Petain and the Gestapo, Bernard Fay compiled a list of 170,000 Freemasons, of whom 989 were sent to concentration camps where 549 were shot. In addition, about 3000 lost their jobs. All Freemasons were required by law to declare themselves to authorities.
Fay also seized the secret archives from the Grand Orient in Paris and from Masonic lodges throughout the country. He compiled the information at the Biblioteque National and edited a monthly Journal, Les Documents Maconniques.
The lead articles had titles like "Freemasonry and the Corruption of Morals." "Freemasonry Against the State," and "The Masonic Lie."
In 1943, Fay produced a film entitled Forces Occultes which depicted Masonic subversion world wide. The film recounts the life of a young Député (Congressman) who joins the Freemasons in order to relaunch his career. He thus learns of how Illuminati Jewish finance in England and the US used Freemasonry to involve France in a war against Germany. The Director Jean Mamy was executed as a collaborator in 1949. Thanks to YouTube, the film with English subtitles can be seen online.
Of course, after France was "liberated" by the Masonic powers in 1944, the tables were turned.
Fay was arrested and sent to a concentration camp. When he finally came to trial in 1946, he was unrepentant and defiant.
"My great imprudence was to remain in France from 1940 to 1944, to dream of its regeneration, to consecrate all of my forces to it, to risk my life for it, and to believe in it, " he said.
According to Barbara Will, author of Unlikely Collaboration, "perhaps the most striking aspect of his trial was the unwillingness of prosecutors to argue with Fay about the political opinions he still freely expressed."
For example, he stated to the court that "for many years I have considered Masonry a dangerous institution, and on this point for some twenty years I have changed neither opinion nor language. The presence of the Germans had no effect on my ideas." (p. 181)
It is a measure of the vice-like grip that Freemasonry has on the liberal mind that Barbara Will, an English professor at Dartmouth College, persists in describing Fay's views as "paranoid" and "bilious."
Fay had access to the secret archives of the Grand Orient. If he said they were dedicated to establishing a Luciferian world tyranny, he was anything but uninformed.
The French Masonic powers investigated more than 300,000 cases of collaboration between 1944 and 1949; 6783 sentences of death were handed down in France and 1600 carried out. In contrast, only 200-300 Nazis were hanged in Germany.
Fay didn't have much faith in his trial. The judge, he noted, was an "Israelite and Freemason." Surprisingly, he was not hanged. On Dec 6 1946, at the age of 54, he was sentenced to hard labor for life.
In 1951, while convalescing in a prison hospital, he managed to escape to Switzerland with the help of fellow anti-Masons. Two years later, he was pardoned by Charles de Gaulle. Nevertheless, he remained in Switzerland, where he continued to teach and write books until his death in 1978.
Our minds have been trained to shut down at the mention of God. However, the New World Order is ultimately an occult exercise designed to replace God (Reality) with Lucifer, who represents the Illuminati's self serving rebellion.
This cult consists of Cabalist Jews and Freemasons who proclaim God has no form and is unknowable. They step into the breach and anoint themselves God.
They create a solipsistic man-made reality. This is why they must control the mass media and education. We are prisoners of this matrix. Modern (i.e. Masonic) culture is a fraud dedicated to undermining marriage and family (through gender bending and promiscuity), race, religion (God) and country. It is a dead-end.
In fact, mankind is connected to God by our soul (which the Illuminati deny exists.) God has attributes which we all crave, spiritual absolutes such as Truth, Love, Goodness, Justice, Beauty and Harmony.
These attributes ultimately are Reality. That is why we we feel confused, listless and empty without them. The Illuminati is dedicated to turning Reality on its head, making what is healthy seem sick, good seem evil, true seem false; and vice-versa.
All true religions are based on this paradigm. That is why Freemasonry is dedicated to destroying them.
Bernard Fay belongs to the France of the ancien regime, the true France of Monarch, Church and army. This France was rotted out and destroyed by Illuminati Jewish finance and their Masonic lackeys who sponsored the French Revolution.
Modern history is an account of how power and wealth has been transferred from the church and aristocracy to Illuminati finance using liberal and democratic ideals as pretexts.
Nazi Germany had to make a show of being anti-Masonic since its enemies were controlled by Freemasonry. Bernard Fay seized this brief moment to try to save his beloved France. Of course, this window closed quickly since the Nazis also were financed and controlled at the top by the Illuminati.
Modern history and culture is saturated by Masonic assumptions yet the cult is largely unknown and unmentioned. Masonic Illuminism is the (satanic) religion of mankind yet its name is never spoken.
I was channel surfing yesterday and landed on the program "Decoded." A 33-degree Freemason in Washington DC was disavowing any Masonic plot for world domination. This is another case of "listen to what we say, not what your eyes tell you." Illuminati conspiracies always deny with their lips what they do with their hands.
If Freemasons don't control the world, why do their symbols dominate Washington DC and other world capitals? Why are Barrack Obama and most of his GOP opponents Freemasons?
If they were dedicated to good (as they claim), the world would be a different place.
Our society continues to be dysfunctional, corrupt and scandal plagued. Yet it refuses to address the underlying cause: subversion and control by a pernicious satanic cult.
This article is indebted to Barbara Will's Unlikely Collaboration (2011) for the info on Bernard Fay.

Harrell Rhome on Bernard Fay
Excerpt from Bernard Fay, Revolution and Freemasonry (1935.)
"The new faith in the future of humanity that spread in the eighteenth century was not simply an abstract fact or mental force. It became a social force and concrete fact through the agency of Freemasonry, which at once accepted and advocated it; the great historical importance of modern Freemasonry results from this attitude that it took then." ... Thus Freemasonry has become the most efficient social power of the civilized world."
"But it has become a hidden power, difficult to trace, to describe and to define. Consequently, most historians have avoided treating it seriously and giving it due credit."
Comments for "Historian Brought Freemasons to Heel "
Dan said (November 13, 2013):
As you may know, Bernard Fay was friends with American expatriate writer Gertrude Stein [1] and her girlfriend Alice B. Tolkas, who were Jewish atheists and lesbians before that became fashionable.
Fay made sure that the Nazis and French fascists left them alone during the war, and Stein used her influence to make sure Fay was left alone after the war.
But something not many know is that it was Bernard Fay who encouraged French Catholic bishop Marcel Lefebvre to found the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) after the Freemasonic coup d'tat of 'Vatican II'.
Had it not been for the initiative of Bishop Lefebvre there would be no preservation.
Bishop Lefebvre was independently wealthy from inheritance, so he was able to open one seminary for the purpose of ordaining a line of priests and bishops who preserved the old rites and "pre-Masonic" ... let's call it the "Old World Order" catechism (teachings, ethics, etc.)
For any who see in this connection between Bernard Fay and Bishop Lefebvre fuel to accuse the SSPX of being "Fascists!", consider who else says so. http://freemasonry.bcy.ca/biography/fay_b/fay_b.html

I really appreciate this
"In fact, mankind is connected to God by our soul (which the Illuminati deny exists.) God has attributes which we all crave, spiritual absolutes such as Truth, Love, Goodness, Justice, Beauty and Harmony.:
That just nails it spot on.
Our souls are divine. Creativity and Beauty come from this divine source. This is why the "Devil is never a maker". This is why the most brilliant creative individuals are so compassionate. Its all connected, and we, are all connected.
Krister said (November 12, 2013):
Comment in response to Stefan [below]:
Due to the author, film maker and researcher of Freemasonry, Jyri Lina, who recently made a film on the Spanish Civil War, there were only ca. 8000 Freemasons in Spain in the summer of 1936. Several thousands of them had already fled to countries as France, Argentina and Mexico. Today there exists about 3000 Freemasons in Spain.
Charlotte said (November 18, 2011):
Wonderful article! I honestly believe that until they are rounded up and removed from government nothing will change.
I've also come to believe that those who are unwilling to face the truth of this fact are either malignantly ignorant or co-conspirators in the frauds practiced by Freemasonry.
My husband says that the only reason why you can safely say what you say is because you live in Canada and he has asked me to stop speaking out about this.
So with that said, if there is anything that you can do with the attached, be my guest.
God Bless you!
Elliot said (November 18, 2011):
Regarding this article on High Freemasonry, High Finance, High Ceremonial Magic (cabala) & High Clergy...
There's only so much room at the top...! They each serve a function in the Pyramid... & are intertwined.
I must say... the metaphysical musings and conclusions of this article resonate with me, like the articulation of a point I hadn't pondered... yet... resolved some existential conundrum of mine... by elucidating the fact of our entire post-modern iconoclastic culture is on the surface "unique"... & esoterically masonic in its symbolism and gist...
In this day & age of "days of rage" for the cause of the moment... I am protesting the protesting by not protesting...!
I am considered "old-fashioned" by my liberal-progressive friends for having a traditional understanding of Absolute Truth & Objective Reality... which has been the common consensus amongst theologians and philosophers for 4000 years, until the post-modernists "deconstructed" the definition of "truth" into "relativism"... trading in the solid bedrock of assurance in fixed definitions of terms by a community creating a living language... each term becomes more vibrant with each association...
in exchange for a post-modern-paradigm... a tinker-toy epistemology... a hodge-podge philosophy... a DIY spirituality... a syncretic religiosity... a multitude of meaningless slippery-slopes of tepid terms devoid of definition in context or content... & everybody is happy ! as long as nobody is "politically incorrect"...
What an exciting time to be alive..!
E.J. said (November 18, 2011):
There is a real danger lurking in this article.
A syllogism is as you know is a conclusion drawn from two given or assumed premises. IE: All dogs are animals; all animals have four legs; and therefore, all dogs have four legs. In this case the assumption is that people who don't believe in god must therefore be either Satanic, Masons, or evil. Not true and quite unfair.
Your link: "The word "solipsism" means a self-created reality that has little or no connection with Truth."
I would observe, how better can religion and belief in god be explained? Angels? Immaculate conception? Heaven? Hell? The Devil? etc.?? No proof anywhere but in the minds of people. Faith isn't fact, only fact is fact.
"...mankind is connected to God by our soul (which the Illuminati deny exists.)"
Again, what proof of a "soul" or god beyond some ancient books that have been re-written countless times and based on word of mouth tales. And again, syllogistically, a non-believer is now an Illuminati??
You say: "God has attributes which we all crave, spiritual absolutes such as Truth, Love, Goodness, Justice, Beauty and Harmony" and I would offer that the IDEA of a supreme being or god has those attribute. The basic nature of humans is to give thanks for their sentience and not to be organized into some business of religion. That came from the organized church state that wiped out as much sovereign goddess or tribal practices.
The danger of course for us non-believers who are decent, caring people is the "believers" will kill us:
Mark 6:11 Any city not receiving followers of Jesus will be destroyed worse than Sodom & Gomorrah.
Jude 5 Reminds us God destroys non-believers.
Romans 16:17 Shun those who disagree with your religious views.
Islam: kill all non-believers.
And Bernard Fey's actions: "...compiled a list of 170,000 Freemasons, 989 were sent to concentration camps where 549 were shot" How many of those were decent people in a social organization as are millions of Masons across the continent? Are the TSA no fly lists any different in scope?
These are indeed strange times full of murder, pedophilia, lies, and more and much can be traced to the "Synagog of Satan" or the "Cabalistic Illuminati," but that in no way indicates their beliefs bare any truth, for their thoughts create their reality, but not ours. We are only victims to their aberrant thinking, as are non-believers across the world victims.
I'll only address one of your points here. People get hungry- no one questions the existence of food. But when people have spiritual hunger, suddenly there is no such thing as peace, love, justice, truth ..the very things we hunger for.
C said (November 17, 2011):
Have just read your most recent posting. A very long time ago, a friend of mine told me that she had worked at Sion College situated by the Embankment in London. Sion College is a library for theologians ie men of the cloth - clergy, mainly the protestant church. She dealt with the membership listings. She said that she used to have to leave early on certain days and when she asked why she was told that it was because it was used by the Freemasons.
That being the case, one can see that "religion" today has been infiltrated from within. I have often wondered why our clergy do not speak out more against the erosion of our liberties and all manner of bad things which are currently being enacted around the world. Instead all we here is silence.
M said (November 17, 2011):
Great article, my father was instrumental in keeping the books and secret lists of masons in the channel islands away from German investigations in W W II.
My father was a senior mason, who resigned when he found out that sex perversion with young lads was a prerequisite for the higher orders, This was to insure Rothschild could blackmail and control people like Churchill and Aleister Crowley, both of whom my father knew. He always said W W II was a war for masons and the Jews.
My father had many threats to remain silent, and the day after he died his little home was burgled and his writings and secret papers went missing, but he did say that when the german authorities were in charge, the jersey care home abuse stopped for the wars duration, as the Germans were very against anyone committing child abuse. They would go straight to the camps.
Incidentally my father claimed that those Jews or Freemasons in Germany or the German occupied countries who registered with German authorities, and signed to say they were not practicing and would serve German interests were left in peace.
Clifford Shack said (November 17, 2011):
"But it has become a hidden power, difficult to trace, to describe and to define." - Bernard Fay
It seems to me, based on this description, that Freemasonry has become wildly successful because it had patterned itself after God Himself.
Freemasonry merely mimic the Divine. Though it has claimed the lives of more than 300 million people over the last 250 years... The Lord has taken the rest. My money,in the end is on the Almighty. In the scheme of things, the so-called Illuminati is but a drop in the bucket. A flash in the pan. Why don't we let God deal with their burden. We are riding in His train, it's OK to put our luggage onto the floor. If we allow the Illuminati to divert our minds away from our real task of self-realization, then we have indeed handed over most important victory. If indeed you cherish religious values then don't lose sight of what religion was designed to implore you to do. "Be still and know that I Am is God."
"I am that I am"
To realize the essence of these core teachings, the very core of all religion, is victory over any Satanic endeavor. Satan is the biblical Hebrew word for ignorance. The very opposite of ignorance is self-realization. Know who you are right now, in this very moment.
Dan said (November 17, 2011):
The extent to which Fascism served as a cynical dialectic response to Marxist Freemasonry hasn't been fully explored. Mussolini's Fascism purged the Italian lodges as well as purging the Sicilian Cosa Nostra. The German SA (Brownshirts) purged the German blue lodges and were in turn purged by Himmlers SS - which itself had trappings of an occult secret society. Ostensibly the 20th century nationalist fascists saw Freemasonry as a Jewish tool of cultural subversion. But I think there's a bigger picture than that.
On Steffan's comment I suggest that Franco the Fascist's purge of upper Freemasons served the same agenda as the Spanish Communists purge of the same number of Roman Catholic clergy. That's how the cynical Dialectics work.
To put it colloquially, it's both ends against the middle.
Stefan said (November 16, 2011):
Henry, you may or may not know that Franco at the end of the Spanish Civil War, rounded up Masons, I think 14th degree and above, and had them shot, a grand total of around 14,000 took a bullet. This was probably in response to the Communists murder of around the same number of Roman Catholic Religious,the only real enemy of Talmudic-Freemasonic-Communism. This is the war that started between the TWO SEEDS after the fall of Adam and Eve,one that will go on till the last day.
As for Benedict-XVl being a Freemason, well for me myself just like in the business world, a handshake is not a contract.
Nice article otherwise,though.

What Happens To My Benefits If I Get a Bunch of Money?
Each program, (TANF, SSI, MaineCare, etc.) has its own rules for what happens if you get what is called "lump-sum income." We will explain the rules for each program.
Here are some types of "lump-sum" income that may count:
- SSI or Social Security retroactive awards
- Veteran's retroactive awards
- Insurance settlements
- Workers compensation awards
- Inheritances
- Divorce settlements
- Money you get when you sell a house, land or other things
- Unemployment
- Gifts
- Lottery Winnings
- Income Tax Refunds
Here is what happens if you are on the TANF program when you get lump-sum income:
TANF will not count the following parts of lump sum awards:
- Amounts paid out for attorneys fees
- Amounts earmarked in the award to pay for certain items, such as medical expenses. The money must be actually used to pay for that earmarked cost.
- Up to $10,000, if within 30 days of getting the money, you deposit the money in a separate account.
DHHS must first approve the account. The money may only be withdrawn from the account to pay for certain expenses, such as:
- Education or job training
- Purchase or repair of the family's home
- Purchase or repair of a vehicle used for work or education or training
- Starting a small business
- Money used within the first 30 days to pay health care costs for a member of your household
- Money used within the first 30 days to pay for an emergency, such as to stop an eviction, foreclosure, utility termination, car/truck repair so you don't lose a job
- Money used within the first 30 days to pay for other "essential family needs" approved by DHHS."
- Money used to pay for unexpected expenses. Examples are: funeral expenses, travel costs related to illness, repair of a vehicle; payment of day to day living costs, medical needs, clothing, and housing needs. It is not enough to put aside money for these expenses. You must actually spend the money.
Here is what happens with what is left over from the lump sum.
Basically there is a penalty period during which you will not get TANF. The length of the penalty period depends on how much money you have and how much TANF you usually get. For example, if you usually get $486 per month and you have $12,000 left over then DHHS divides $486 into the $12,000 and puts you off the TANF program for about 25 months.
- You can sometimes shorten the penalty period if you can show that some unexpected emergency came up and you had to spend your money. You should check with DHHS before you spend the money.
Here are some examples of things that you could spend the money on and shorten the penalty:
- funeral expenses
- travel costs related to illness
- repair of a vehicle;
- payment of day to day living costs
- medical needs
- clothing
- housing needs, including payment to prevent an eviction or foreclosure
- payment of utility bills to prevent a disconnection.
It is not enough to put aside money for these expenses. You must actually spend the money. You can also not pay bills ahead of time. You must wait until it becomes an emergency.
Here are a couple of ways to avoid the lump-sum penalty.
Stop your TANF the month before you expect to get the lump-sum money. For example, if you expect to get the lump sum in July, then in June drop out of the TANF program. You need to do this as early as you can in June. If you do get TANF in July, even after you have dropped out of TANF, do not spend the TANF and contact your DHHS eligibility specialist right away to return the money.
This will not work after the fact. You can not get the money in July and call DHHS in July and say: take back my TANF for July.
Once you spend your lump-sum below the TANF limit of $2000, re- apply for TANF the month after you get below the $2000 liquid asset limit. Keep receipts on how you spend the money, so you can prove that you no longer have it, when you go back in to re-apply.
When you get a lump-sum while you are on MaineCare here is what happens:
- The lump-sum is considered to be "income" in the month that you get the lump-sum. You need to report to DHHS that you have gotten any income. You must report this within 10 days of getting the money. (SSI lump sum payments do not count as income.)
The lump-sum will not end your MaineCare for the month in which you get the money. For example, if you get the lump-sum in July, you keep your MaineCare for July. You do not have to pay anything back.
- In the next month, anything left over from the lump-sum counts as an "asset." It will count against the asset limits in MaineCare. You need to get your lump-sum, and any other assets, below the asset limit by any time in the month after you get the lump sum; otherwise you may lose your MaineCare.
Example: You get a lump-sum in July. It will count as an "asset" in August. Basically, you can keep your MaineCare if you get your assets down below the limits on any day in August. The basic asset limits for MaineCare are:
- $2000 if you are an elderly (65 or older) or disabled person ($3000 for a couple)
- $2000 if you are age 19 or older.
- $8000 if you are a disabled person who is working and under the Working Disabled program.
Important: There are no asset limits for: parents, children under age 21, or pregnant women. Asset limits only apply to people over age 65 or who people who are disabled.
Some things will not count as lump sum income.
For example, amounts set aside in any lump sum insurance award to be used to pay for specific purposes, such as to pay attorneys fees or medical expenses do not count for up to six (6) months.
Some assets do not count.
Here is a partial list of assets that will not count:
- one vehicle (e.g. car, truck, motorcycle, snowmobile)
- a second vehicle if used to get to work, medical appointments, training, or to perform other essential activities. (A vehicle modified to be used by or to transport someone with a disability is also not counted.)
- a third vehicle, subject to certain limits.
- furniture and other household goods used for day to day living, including basic jewelry, like a wedding ring.
- house and lot, (it must be your primary residence)
- burial plot or burial insurance
- clothing
- up to $10,000 put into a DHHS approved Family Development Account. (This is only for families with minor children.) The money in the account may only be used for certain limited purposes.t
- $8000 of savings for an individual, $12,000 for a household of 2 or more people
- assets of a step-parent (unless getting MaineCare)
- assets used to produce income or goods for home use
- retroactive SSI or Social Security awards to the elderly or disabled do not count as assets for 9 months
Keep receipts for how you spend your money.
- If you don't get your money below the limit, for at least one day during the month, then you will lose your MaineCare. You can get your MaineCare back, once you go below the allowed limits for assets.
In spending your money, you need to be careful. Sometimes you are allowed to make gifts of your money to other people and that is legal. Sometimes, you may risk losing your MaineCare if you do this. You need to speak with a lawyer before giving away any money.
Food Supplement
Lump-sum payments do not count as income. There are also no asset limits for the Food Supplement program. Therefore, money that you get as a lump-sum will not be used when seeing if you can get Food Supplement benefits. You should still report to DHHS that you have received a lump sum.
Lump sum payments count as income in the month that you get it. In the next month, the lump sum counts as an asset. Here is what happens to your SSI.
First, Social Security will look to see if the lump-sum you got puts you over the income limits for the month you got both SSI and the lump sum.
For example, you get $684 of SSI in October. You then get a $20,000 lump sum in mid-October. Since you are over the income guidelines for October, Social Security will send you a notice that you were overpaid SSI for October. They will try to collect that $684 from you by reducing your future SSI payments. You can ask Social Security to "waive" the overpayment.
Second, the lump-sum you get will count against the $2000 limit on assets for a single person and the $3000 limit for a couple getting SSI. When Social Security looks to see if you are over the asset limit, they look at the first day of the month.
Example: You get a lump sum in October. You spend it down below the asset limit before November 1st. You will not have an asset problem for November.
If your lump sum is from a back award of SSI or Social Security, then special rules apply. For the first 9 months any back award will not count as an asset. It is important to keep this money separate from any other money that you have.
If your lump sum is to replace an asset that was destroyed or damaged, then the lump sum may not count for 9 months or more. This happens when the money you get is to replace something that Social Security does not count.
Example: You own a car. The car is damaged and you get an insurance settlement so that you can fix or replace the car. That money you get will not count for 9 months.
Social Security will not count any part of the lump sum that goes toward paying your legal fees. In the case of an accident settlement, if medical expenses are paid, that money will not count.
Here are some things that you can spend your lump sum on. These will not count against the $2000/$3000 asset limit.
- Buying or repairing a home. (If you sell your home and then plan to buy a new home, you can keep the sale money for up to 3 months, and it will not count as an asset or income.)
- Household goods, such as furniture and clothing
- One vehicle of any value
- Property used in trade or business (for example, tools if you have a business)
- Money or property set aside for a Program to Achieve Self-Support or PASS. This is a plan that you come up with and that Social Security must approve. It is a plan for you to go back to school, start working, set up a business, etc. Social Security then will not count the income or assets that you use for your PASS plan.
- Life Insurance (up to $1500 cash surrender value)
- Burial spaces and burial contracts are not counted. You can also set aside burial funds up to $1500 in a separate account.
There are other things that will not count as assets. This is just a list of the most common things that do not count.
Note: This information is general; it cannot address every circumstance. If you have questions about whether something counts as an income or an asset for any program, seek legal advice. Contact Pine Tree Legal or MEJP.

Seafair Sunday: Blue Angels fly, but without 'Fat Albert'August 7, 2011 at 2:30 pm | In Blue Angels, West Seattle news | 4 Comments
After that Museum of Flight flyby, the Blue Angels landed at Boeing Field about 15 minutes ago, concluding their Seafair 2011 performances. No "Fat Albert" today, though – the C-130 always goes up before the six F/A-18′s, but that didn't happen today because of what official Seafair station KIRO reported via Twitter was a "maintenance issue." (Good thing WSB's Christopher Boffoli chose Saturday for his flight – see his story here with video and photos, if you haven't already.) We watched today's pre-takeoff events from the fence facing the six jets' parking area – a closer view than the media zone:
For our fellow aviation fans, we'll be in touch with Seafair to find out when they're flying out; next weekend, they're scheduled to perform in Fargo, North Dakota.
ADDED: Seafair says they're expected to leave Tuesday morning, but will doublecheck the time on Monday. Meantime, one more great photo, from David Hutchinson:
As he captioned it … "show's over."

golly, that top photo is so sweet. Aces.

My three galleries of pictures from this weekend
That's my daughter, my youngest son and me in the top photo watching the "Blues" conduct the "carrier break" that signals the end of the show prior to landing.
My son and I have been going to watch them for 10 years in a row now. We have 10 years of posters all signed by the pilots!

Gosh, EWR, if I'd have known, I'd have said hi. I have watched from Museum of Flight so many years myself, I know when to get into position to watch that final flyby – had been hanging out on the museum lawn till seeing them head back over the ridge in the all-six configuration that represents their final pass over the lake, at which time I wandered over to the parking lot, thinking it might be a nice shot right over the B-17. – TR

DSL Modem Reviews and Product Comparisons 2014
You certainly would prefer to buy a DSL modem rather than you have to entrust it to an Internet Service Provider (ISP). In general, each ISP has provided some internet packages. Sometimes, you can get free facilities. Still, it only happens on some services, and of course, will not last long. Meanwhile, there are some packages that provide the modem as a part of services. So, you will buy the services, including the availability of a modem. Unfortunately, you will pay a higher price. However, ISPs have to get it at a cheaper price. Well, what are you going to do is to read some of DSL Modem reviews and determine the most appropriate price.
Compare the DSL Modem Reviews
Once again, you will see a bit of trouble. How might you be able to get DSL modem with the most affordable price? However, there is little difference when a company buys the product in retail. And you are just a casual user who may have to pay a higher price. Well, try to compare some reviews. Look at how you will choose according to your needs. And the most important thing is how a modem will be able to support the quality of your connectivity. Meanwhile, you also have to prepare the Cable DSL Modem that is actually able to function optimally.
Make the List of DSL Modem Reviews
Meanwhile, there are other important considerations such as the issue of the length of use. Generally, DSL modem is used by several people in the home or office. Well, there are many differences that will determine your cost. Make a list of that will finish your conclusion. It would be very easy. In 2014, there are some products that will most likely be the favorite. You can read some reviews about them. Next, you will decide which one best suits your needs. Well, let's look at some of them.
Netopia 2210 DSL Modem Reviews
The first option is Motorola Netopia 2210. It is a perfect DSL modem designed for current needs. You can buy this for $ 36.99 dollars. Well, that's the price. So, what specs? You can see the design is simple, yet modern. This is complemented by Cable DSL Modem, RJ-11 ADSL ports and Fast Ethernet ports. Meanwhile, you can install it easily without the CD. So, you can make use of it to different devices. Also, it is equipped with a firewall so that you will not meet with the annoying disturbances during browsing. Unfortunately, if you buy this, you will only get a warranty for 3 months.
Zyxel Prestige 660M DSL Modem Reviews
Next is the ZyXEL Prestige 660M. With 41.99 dollars, you can bring home this DSL modem. It is a black box that will support resilient connectivity at your place. People refer to this as a basic modem highly effective in every place. This product measures 4:14 "(W) x 4.2″ (D) x 1:38 "(H), and will not take up much space. For ADSL, you can use the One RJ-11 phone port. In fact, you will get a warranty for two years. However, it is quite a long time so you can use it comfortably.
NETGEAR DM111P DSL Modem Reviews
You will always be able to get what you need in connectivity, especially if you take NETGEAR DM111P. It is a super-standard DSL modem for flexible needs. For those of you who are using a desktop, you will be supported by a Fast Ethernet port. In the meantime, you can surf comfortably with RJ-11 ADSL port with Cable DSL Modem.

However, you can not get the VPN features. But it is simple if you remember the reason for the price. Still, you can use this as a standard modem. Perhaps, you are going to install this in your home.
In general, each DSL modem has certain advantages and disadvantages. You could compare the above options with your reasons. In the meantime, do not forget to adjust your budget. Indeed, it is the main reason when you prefer a modem instead of the ISP package. Well, the other problem is when you use a modem for a long time. It will affect the temperature could make the modem did not last long. So, be sure that you will choose according to the capabilities and features. Another thing is the issue of Cable DSL Modem that has to be replaced at some time.
In addition, there are many options that can be found on the old modems. In fact, you can get a cheaper price than usual. Generally, some modems are not manufactured anymore. So, you probably will spend a long time to get them. Look for information on some retail so you have time efficiently. To get the right modem, you also need to adjust the specifications of your device. Remember that they are old modem which may not be compatible.

Circulating tumor diagnostics is a promising methodology to individually follow
up cancer patients in an early or advanced phase during therapy, thereby improving
the medical doctor's therapy decisions. In the case of breast cancer, 5 ml of
blood contains only 2 to 3 tumor cells. To detect cancer from blood, these rare
circulating tumor cells need to be isolated, enriched and their genetic content
has to be identified. Current diagnostics performed in medical laboratories
are labor intensive, expensive and time-consuming. They require many sample
preprocessing steps in different medical instruments so that the full analysis
takes more than a day. A lab-on-chip system however can bring huge advantages
both to the patient and the healthcare system. They enable a fast, easy-to-use,
cost-effective test method which can be performed at regular times in a doctor's
office or even near the patient's bed. Lab-on-chip systems are a labor-saving
and minimally invasive solution for cancer cell detection, therapy selection
and monitoring.
The project partners developed a modular platform where each module has its
specific task and autonomy and as such can also be used for many different medical
applications. The first module is the incubation module performing the mixing
of the blood sample with functionalized magnetic beads which specifically bind
the tumor cells. The second module is used for tumor cell isolation and counting
using a combination of dielectrophoresis and magnetic sensing with single cell
sensitivity. In the third module, the amplification module, the cell wall of
the tumor cells is destroyed and the genetic material (i.e. the mRNA) is extracted
and amplified based on multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification (MLPA).
Within this module, specific assays amplify about 20 markers that are expressed
in breast carcinoma cells. In the final detection module, the amplified genetic
material is detected using an array of electrochemical sensors. The different
building blocks have been developed and validated on spiked blood samples. The
modules are now ready for further hetero-integration into a single lab-on-chip.
By miniaturizing and merging the microfluidic and electronic functionalities
the reliability and accuracy of the patient's analysis will be improved.
The clinical use of the system will be evaluated to compare it to more conventional
approaches in a breast cancer therapy follow-up study.
Within the framework of the MASCOT project, IMEC collaborates with the Institut
für Mikrotechnik Mainz (Germany), AdnaGenAG (Germany), Universitat Rovira
i Virgili in Sweden, NorwegianRadium Hospital (Norway), MRC Holland (The Netherlands),
and FuijerebioDiagnosticsAB (Spain). The project's aim is to develop an
integrated microsystem for the magnetic isolation and analysis of single circulating
tumor cells for oncology diagnostics and therapy follow-up. MASCOT was partly
funded by the European Commission (IST-027652).

FALLON, NV - A Halloween drinking party involving underage students has resulted in multiple charges against two Churchill County men and could have a big impact on the Fallon high school football team.
Apparently a number of students, including at least two members of the football team, were at the party saturday night.
21-year-old Jarred Dodson and 20-year-old Nicholas Meader are charged with hosting the party. They face 18 counts each of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
None of the under-aged kids has been charged, but school district officials have launched an investigation.
School Superintendent Carolyn Ross says once an investigation is completed there will be appropriate consequences including possible suspensions for the football players according to nevada interscholastic athletic rules.
Fallon plays Spring Creek Friday night for the northern 3A championship.
It's the high school's first playoff appearance in decades.

It boggles my mind how many people I see hiking either to Hollywood or towards Wenatchee/Highlands without gear. Specifically yesterday with the high loading of snow and wind. The thing that REALLY set me off yesterday was heading home and seeing 4 snowboarders hiking up Hwy 2 back to the resort, no BC gear whatsoever. Turns out they rode right down one of the biggest slide paths coming down from Grace Lakes to the highway. Not only did they put themselves in danger, but every motorist that crossed that slide path while they were on the slope above.
Since Tunnel Creek last year, I do see more people riding Stevens with gear, but it seems like there's even more riding the backcountry adjacent to Stevens with no gear. It's only a matter of time before someone gets themselves in a bad situation or even killed.
I had a discussion about stevens boundaries with my buddy last weekend. We both grew up riding stevens and now live in bozeman. I feel that the how stevens marks the boundaries has too much gray area. You have a handful of hikes that are technically out of bounds but the terrain is skied and bombed by patrol as the terrain sits above inbounds areas. Such as piste point, front side of cowboy, death chutes, power lines section of rooster. From these same hikes you can drop off the other side into terrain that sees no avy control. I ride at Bridger Bowl where they have inbounds terrain that requires a beacon. This keeps the unknowning out of trouble and shows all that this terrain deserves more respect. I believe it would benefit stevens to promote these inbounds hikes and control them with a beacon check point. Also clearly mark what leads back inbounds and what leads away from the area.
The back country sector of the sport is growing at a fast rate, how and if new rules are enacted are going to depend on how responsible the users are. I would hate to see ski area to go back to closed boundaries that were the norm in the 90's.
If you dont have gear, your not rolling with my crew, thats how i see it. If your not an experienced rider, dont expect to come along ether, the backcountry is no area to learn to ride.

|Check satellite signal status
Select Menu > Applications > Location and GPS data > Options > Satellite status.
If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The longer the bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your device has received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate your location, the bar color changes.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your location. When the initial calculation has been made, it may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy is generally better when more satellites are found.
To view the positions of found satellites, select Chg. view.
If no satellite signal can be found, consider the following:
If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better signal.
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
If the weather conditions are bad, the signal strength may be affected.
Some vehicles have tinted (athermic) windows, which may block the satellite signals.
Ensure you do not cover the antenna with your hand.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS connection in a vehicle may take longer.
The GPS receiver draws its power from the device battery. Using GPS may drain the battery faster.

The DogBall - The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
Written by Dave Lavinsky on Monday, February 23, 2009
Yesterday, I received an interesting package in the mail. I opened it up and inside was a shoebox. And inside the shoebox was "The Dogball." The Dogball, as I found out, is a new toy for dogs, and the founder, based in France, was trying to get me to distribute it here in the United States.

Well done. I am a long time marketer who appreciates innovative approaches like enticing me to download and listen to an 8 minute soft sell commercial for Growthink. It was entertaining and I now have a picture of you in my mind and feel like I know you. You got me to your site and thinking of how I can use your services. To refresh your memory or to just touch base..I am developing a Social Enterprise whose vision will be to help 1,000 small towns in America organize and raise private funds to rebuild their mainstreet one small project at a time. When the plan is ready I will approach you for help. Meanwhile thanks for keeping me entertained and in your loop.

Thanks Dave. I am launching my first new product and stay at odds of how to approach introduction, funding and business planning. After unsuccessful attempts at licensing in which both licensee' were overly one sided, I decided to manufacture. I enjoy this challenge, but find it frustrating at times. I need to stay employed while my first product comes out of the gate and funds the many I have awaiting in the wings. All good business plans should contain essential elements to secure funding, one of which is a key management team. Well, when you still are required to provide income for your family while launching your first venture and can not form a "management team" due to cash flow, it is very hard to get things started. Perhaps the Dog Ball inventor is just getting out of the box to attempt a novel approach to getting his product out there. After all, you did produce a video and launch an email regarding the Dog Ball!
