Would you take Dwight if you could and you were one of the top 5 teams in the nba outside of the teams Dwight has said he'd resign with?
Would or should the Bulls go for a trade for Dwight, if they could. Say something like Noah, Boozer and Deng for Dwight, Turkoglu and QRich. Looks like a fair trade talent wise, the Bulls get Dwight to pair with Rose, while the Magic get three of the Bulls top four players, all great contributors to them being the best win/loss team last season and this season. Thing is ofcourse, Dwight hasn't listed the Bulls as one of the few teams he'd stay with, so would that be worth the risk?
Would or should the Thunder go for a trade for Dwight, if they could. Say something like Westbrook, Perkins, Harden, DCook and Mohammed for Dwight and Jameer. Thunder get to pair Durant and Dwight, while the Magic get three very good players in return. Again, Dwight could leave, but that team could be awesome and could just add one or two more good role players to really make it special. Everyone's games would get better I think, like Ibaka especially, who would have a real great defender to go with his defense.
Would or should the Grizz go for a trade for Dwight, if they could. Say something like MGasol, Gay and Mayo for Dwight and Turkoglu. With a healthy ZRandolph, could be a great pairing with Dwight and the Grizz have gotten better each of the last couple of seasons.
Would or should the Nuggets go for a trade for Dwight, if they could. Say something like Nene, Gallinari, Lawson and Afflalo for Dwight and Jameer. Nuggets don't really have much talent and would be no better than they are now, but such a proposal could interest them, which is the point in stating it.
Would or should the Hawks go for a trade for Dwight, if they could. Say something like JJ, Horford and MWilliams for Dwight, Turkoglu and GDavis. Dwight paired with JSmith would be the best defensive duo there is. Orlando would get back more talent.
This is just taking a look at what situations would be possible involving Dwight, outside the teams he said he'd resign with if traded there and whether he'd stay with any of the other best teams if he were to be traded there. Being paired with another superstar, especially either Rose or Durant could interest Dwight and since those teams are the top two, maybe he'd see championships there
Would you take Dwight if you could
Talk about anything general in the NBA here.

Good topic starter Migya.
Bulls: I don't think the bulls should go after dwight. Deng has played great, Noah has been decent enough where is isn't a burdon, and boozer still puts up 15,8. If I were the bulls, i would try to get Ray Allen, who even at his age is an upgrade over Hamilton.
Thunder: Again, the Thunder don't need to trade for howard, especially if it means giving up a young, extremely talented pg. And including Hardin into the mix is just too much. He is the 3rd best player. Ibaka will get better. Perkins is nothing special, but this is a team that does not need an elite center. They have (in my opinion) the second most hungriest guy for a championshipin the NBA in Durant (Kobe still leads that category, of course).
Grizzlies: If I were the Grizzlies. If you build it, they will come mentality. I would try to keep Gay though. But if I were Howard, I wouldm't. Zbo is incredibly inconsistent (and often hurt) and getting old. Turkiglu is getting old. You know you wouldn't win anything over there. If I were howard, i would take Magic>grizzlies
Nuggets: a good situation for both teams, if done right. If I were the Nuggets, you need to make it a priority to keep either Lawson or Galinari. The fact is, Lawson has more value, so trading him, Mozlev (center) and Nene (PF-C) for Howard (maybe even Jameer too) is fair value. Leaves the nuggets with Andre Miller, Aaron Affalo, Galinari, Kennith Faried, and Dwight Howard as their starting five (with Fernandez, Harrington, Brewer, and Jordan Hamilton on bench). Team is young, and will get better. They will need to address their PG situation but that team can be solid..... ONLY THING IS, I don't think Dwight wants to go to Denver. So I don't see him going there.
Hawks would be a great fit for Dwight. But Magic do not want Joe Johnson's max deal. No way. Too many years left on that max contract. If you can trade Josh Smith, Willliams, and Horford and a future 1st rounder (or 2) for Ryan Anderson and Dwight Howard, It leaves the Magic with a solid front court for years to come. Hawks can then model their play like the lakers, with poor man's Kobe in Joe Johnson, Ryan Anderson at PF, and Dwight in the middle. Plus Jeff Teague as your starting PG.....Solid contending team for years to come.

Yeah, i don't see why dwight just cannot stay there in Orlando. He has his identity there. Plus, he is from the southern region on the USA, so that is a team close to home (though Atlanta is probably the closest to his home team).
Deron Williams would be willing to move, but the Magic will need to clear up space for him. Probably a 3 team trade, getting rid of their players can bring Deron to the Magic.

'I woke up and my penis was gone'Comment on this story
Birmingham, Alabama - An Alabama man who went to a hospital last month for a circumcision awoke after surgery to find his penis had been amputated, his lawyer said on Thursday.
Johnny Lee Banks Junior, 56, said in a lawsuit filed in state court earlier this week that no one at the Princeton Baptist Medical Centre in Birmingham, Alabama, had told him why it had been necessary to remove his penis.
"My client is devastated," said Banks' attorney John Graves.
Banks, who is married and does not work due to a disability, did not recall the precise date of the incident but believed it occurred in June, his attorney said.
A spokeswoman for the hospital's parent company said in a statement that Banks' allegations were without merit.
"We intend to defend all counts aggressively," Kate DeWitt Darden, spokeswoman for Baptist Health System, said in a statement.
The lawsuit does not specify the monetary value of the damages.
Named as defendants in the lawsuit are the hospital, the Simon-Williamson Clinic, Urology Centres of Alabama and two doctors, Graves said.
Representatives for the Simon-Williamson Clinic and the Urology Centres of Alabama did not immediately respond to requests for comment. - Reuters

Youngest British Woman to Climb Everest
On the 17th of May 2010 Bonita became the youngest British woman to climb Mount Everest.
Connection with Foxhills
Bonita is from Wokingham and has trained at Foxhills for the last 2 years. With Foxhills help she has been able to train in a great facility and have access to the best personal trainers she could wish for.
As a Climber
One morning, in 2008, Bonita woke up with the crazy idea to climb Mount Everest. A great idea but she had previously never been climbing. After training hard and practicing in the Alps, August 2009 saw her conquer her first high peak, The world's 8th highest mountain, Manaslu in Nepal.
During a short period of time in May, before the monsoon season, conditions are at their best for climbing Everest so another year of hard training and then Bonita was ready.
To reach the peak of the mountain via the Southeast Ridge, Bonita's exhibition first completed a week-long trek through lush forests and mountain scenery to reach base camp. The next stage of her climb was to cross the dangerous Khumbu Icefall where she faced giant crevasses and shifting blocks of ice.
Then she reached the "death zone" where conditions allow only two or three days to attempt to reach the summit before having to retreat back down the mountain. On the morning of 17th May 2010 Bonita reached the summit.
See her at Foxhills
Members can enjoy an exciting interview from her in The Fox Autumn 2010.

Merit, not politics, in Ohio judicial selection
Case Western Reserve University School of Law Professor Jonathan H. Adler has praised Ohio Governor John Kaisch's system of selection that the governor installed to choose a new interim Supreme Court Justice.
Ohio, like Pennsylvania, primarily elects its judges. If a judge should leave the bench in between election cycles, the Ohio constitution affords the governor the right to appoint a judge until the next election takes place. Rather than wield his gubernatorial authority to unilaterally replace Ohio Supreme Court Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton when she announced her retirement earlier this year, Kaisch instead announced the formation of a selection committee of Ohio attorneys to assist him in making his decision.
Adler was one of the attorneys called to evaluate the thirteen applicants to
replace Justice Stratton and offer a recommendation. "The process could have been quite political," he writes in his blog entry on the Volokh Conspiracy, "but I was surprised at how little politics intruded. The Governor made clear he did not want political considerations to intrude on our deliberations. Beyond the recognition that state supreme court justice is an elective office, and the appointee would have to stand for reelection in two years, politics were not a concern. We did not have to worry who had the best political connections, who was owed a favor, or who could help the Governor politically. Instead, we identified the most qualified candidates and their respective strengths and weaknesses."
This is a tremendously positive step for Ohio. Certainly the process Kaisch employed is informal, and at most would be only personally binding – if he wishes to do so, he could simply cancel his selection scheme in the future, similar to how North Carolina Governor Bev Purdue scrapped hers prior to leaving office. In this instance, however, Kaisch has demonstrated a willingness to move outside of the usual channels of politics in order to have competent advisement on creating the most unbiased and impartial judiciary for his state.
Hopefully his leadership in this matter will spark enthusiasm for more permanent and far-reaching reforms in the years to come, both in his home state, and in
our own neighboring state just to the east.

If you plan to use Complex Scripts (like Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, etc), you should ensure that you have support for complex scripts installed. I know that sounds obvious, but we wanted to make sure people know how and why to do this. Let us examine this in detail using an international URL issue that Dean recently encountered while dogfooding IE7.
What is the issue?
Internet Explorer will sometimes display Right-to-left (RTL) languages such as Arabic or Hebrew, in the address bar in left-to-right (LTR) order. Due to IE's IDN homograph-spoofing mitigation; this would be an issue only for users who have that language in their language settings (otherwise navigating to an international URL will display the hostname as punycode). Still, this is a genuine customer scenario that should just work. For example, consider a Hebrew URL:
This would show up in the address-bar as http://xn--4dbcd.com by default. But a user with Hebrew in their accepted-languages might see:
We found it very surprising that such an important issue was not reported widely during Beta 1 and Beta 2, so we wanted to dig a little deeper.
What did our investigation reveal?
This happens only on machines where support for complex scripts is not installed. Complex Scripts are those which require contextual processing for display, editing, and other functions, such as:
IE's address bar uses the Windows EDIT control which uses GDI to display characters. When support for complex scripts is not installed, GDI can just map a given Unicode codepoint to a glyph and display it, but can't do context-specific stuff like changing the order or shape of characters. All this language specific complexity is handled by Uniscribe, which is installed when you install support for complex scripts. Inside the browser, of course, we support all these scripts ourselves, regardless of whether the Windows EDIT control support is installed – the problem only occurs in the address bar.
Who does this issue impact?
You can run into Unicode URLs incorrectly displayed in the address bar if:
We have not seen any bug-report mentioning this, and do not think this is an issue that a typical user of complex scripts would run into.
How can you fix the issue?
If the description above matches you, or if you just want to play it safe, you should install complex script and RTL languages support. This not only corrects the IE behavior, but will give you a more consistent experience when using complex scripts in other components and software running on Windows XP.
Go to "Control Panel-> Regional and Language Options" and check the setting shown below. You'll need the Windows XP CD and will need to restart.
Comments and feedback are welcome! Make sure you try out IE7 Beta 3!

Posted by Josh Katzowitz
You could understand why Eagles fans -- not to mention the team's coach -- would be upset by DeSean Jackson these past few weeks.
After all, he slept through a Saturday special teams meeting, leading Andy Reid to bench him in Week 10, and then last week, after making a 50-yard reception, he flipped the ball to Giants defensive coordinator Perry Fewell, drawing a personal foul penalty and losing the entire gain.
But you know the moment you've really crossed the line? When another team's kicker comes at you sideways on Twitter.
On Sunday, after Jackson's ball presentation to Fewell, Jaguars kicker Josh Scobee tweeted the following: "Desean Jackson is a punk. #growuputinybastard." To further clarify his thoughts, Scobee then wrote: "Relax people. He's just a punk which means to me he doesn't respect anyone or anything around him. Therefore I don't respect him."
On Tuesday, Jackson finally got around to responding, and he didn't take to Scobee's opinion all that kindly, writing, "This man @joshscobee is Waaaaaaay outta LIne!! Stick to ya Own business.. Mind ya own!! I don't respect what u sayin.. Lil Boi status."
As the Big Lead points out, the tale of the tape if the two ever got into the boxing ring favors Scobee, who's 6-foot-1 and 192 pounds compared to Jackson's 5-10, 175-pound frame.
On Monday, Scobee backtracked by writing, "Shouldn't have called Desean Jackson that, I used the wrong words to try and make my point."
Maybe in order to settle this, Scobee could attempt really long field goals, and if they fall short, Jackson could attempt to run them back for touchdowns. Other than that, this is just a good ol' Twitter feud that, unlike Osi Umenyiora vs. LeSean McCoy, is likely to end sooner rather than later.

The fact that I am only just getting to this week's fashion recap from the Bachelorette is shocking.
I did not see this coming.
This week my focus is not on Emily's fashion, but rather Ryan's, who has taken men's undergarments to a whole new level, proving that colored shoes are not always the best option, and singlehandedly keeping Edward Scissorhands in business with his Ed Burton inspired facial hair.
The reason my blog is late is because I have spent hours – hours - trying in vain to track down the exact halter-esque tank top that Ryan Bowers brought into my life, and I am forever changed because of it. (Ryan, if you are reading this the world needs to know the backstory of your tank top.)
Once I finally took my Ritalin and was able to concentrate on the task at hand, I realized that more of you were probably hoping to replicate Emily's fashion (or not) than Ryan Bowers' epic tank top. So here we go.
One of my favorite parts of Emily's fashion this week was the attainability of some of it. Sure, we're probably not going to end up with Emily's white sequin rose ceremony dress by Gomez-Gracia (and yes, as many of you pointed out, Carrie Underwood wore the same dress to the Grammy's. Let me know in the comments who you think wore it best.)
But some of my favorite pieces this week you can get for yourself. I loved Emily's outfit from her date with Travis. The beaded off the shoulder top is by Haute Hippie and blush leather jacket is from Zara (though sadly out of stock online.) Emily has amassed herself quite a leather jacket collection this season – and this was one of the more affordable pieces.
I also loved her beaded Parker jacket during the infomercial for Brave. It's always fun to add a little sparkle in the daytime and I love the idea of pairing sequins or beads with a casual bottom like jeans or cutoffs (which Emily has amassed more than a few of as well.)
Faring less well? Emily's gold dress from her one on one with Ryan. It's hard to outshine Ryan's ego (or turquoise shoes) but this monstrosity did. Between the patterned sequins and oversized sleeve, this dress wore Emily, not the other way around. Sure I get the joke: Ryan called her a trophy and she was dressed like an Oscar, but this dress overpowered Emily, not to mention my gag reflex.
The winner of the night? Emily's gorgeous rose ceremony earrings by The Woods (I'm trying to get the scoop from the designer whether these are available for purchase or a one of a kind piece – so check back on my fashion blog Possessionista.com for details.)
What was your favorite and least favorite look of the night? And what did you think of Ryan's tank top? Let me know your fashion hits and misses from this week's episode of the Bachelorette in the comments below.

|Arai Satomi, seiyuu, wife,
and mother
Mikko's most famous role is as the yuri schoolgirl security officer Kuroko in Index and Railgun. Her bizarre Kuroko voice has become her trademark. But I was most impressed by her work in Mahoraba, where she played the heroine Kozue and her four alternate personalities.
Mikko, who is 31, apologized for keeping her marriage quiet for so long, but said there were "various reasons" that kept delaying her announcement. Finally she just decided she wanted to go ahead and bring things out into the open. It lifts a burden from her shoulders, she says.
Seiyuu can be abandoned by their fans for simply having a boyfriend, so being a wife and mother could be a problem, -- though it doesn't seem that her marriage last year has harmed Nazuka Kaori's career.

The Idaho Foodbank has been notified that Charity Navigator, the country's largest independent evaluator of nonprofits, has awarded it a rare fourth consecutive four-star rating.
As Charity Navigator's President and CEO Ken Berger stated in his letter to Foodbank President and CEO Karen Vauk, "Only 6% of the charities we rate have received at least 4 consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that Idaho Foodbank outperforms most other charities in America. This 'exceptional' designation from Charity Navigator differentiates Idaho Foodbank from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."
Charity Navigator awarded only six four-star ratings in Idaho this year, and the Foodbank was the only nonprofit to earn the highest possible rating four years in a row.
Nationally, this rating puts the Foodbank in the company of such diverse four-star charities as the American Heart Association, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund, Save the Children, many United Ways, the Sierra Club Foundation, Mercy Corps and food banks from New York to Arizona.
This accolade is an important confirmation of the Foodbank's efficiency and effectiveness with donated food and funds in the effort to create a hunger-free Idaho.

The genuine of the book is how sexual repression can be rendered as a fascinating literary topic.
But there was something rare and genuine about his presence.
He could form a genuine post-presidential friendship with Bill Clinton, the man who had defeated him in 1992.
His protestations would have been passionate had they been genuine.
These were, however, genuine, and spoke in the name and with the authority of the tribes.
It would be difficult to find one who could be the subject of a genuine lyric.
We have really enough to do to look after the genuine article.
He felt transports of joy in clasping her in his arms and genuine despair when he left her.
1590s, "natural, not acquired," from Latin genuinus "native, natural," from root of gignere "beget" (see genus), perhaps influenced in form by contrasting adulterinus "spurious." [Alternative etymology is from Latin genu "knee," from a supposed ancient custom of a father acknowledging paternity of a newborn by placing it on his knee.] Meaning "really proceeding from its reputed source" is from 1660s. Related: Genuinely; genuineness.

What do you guys do when you are forced to be the only responsible adult around your crazy in-laws?
While I am glad that the girl I married is the sanest of all of them, that still doesn't change the fact that I've married in to a family of crazies!
The aforementioned idiot brother in law (let's call him "G") has today managed to OD on what I believe is a mix of sleeping pills and anti-depression medication. Accidentally is what we think at this stage.
He phoned a friend, who luckily had HIS sheeet together and phoned for an Ambulance ASAP and then rushed over there himself. This guy didn't know how to contact the family, so started to randomly call folks in G's phone address book.
Luckily, the first person called knew to call me, so I took over and managed to speak to the friend and the hospital, confirm the story, then get a hold of my father in law who was able to drop everything and rush around. In case you are wondering, G's fine and will spend a night in for observations
G has been an absolute idiot over the last year* (amongst other things ripping $thousands$ off Grandma - can you believe that!) and his sister, my wife, doesn't talk to him. So I've got to play peace maker and do the 'adult' work around here.
I'm not sure what is worse. Having to deal with a serious situation (ie next-of-kin duties) or having to be diplomatic about when and how you tell your wife this stuff. She actually admitted to having the thought of "I wish he'd done it properly", ie managed to kill himself (although we don't think this was his intent).
*I think he's been an idiot for much longer, but this year has been a particularly fine effort against previous averages

Is in the attic armed
Lyric Meaning
Big Lips (could be Earl or Earl's alter-ego) is in the attic with an arm filled with needle holes like that of a heroin addict.
Could also be "Attic Arms" which is a gun shop located in Tennessee.
Another interpretation could be that Big Lips is Earl's schizo alter-ego (attic = head) and so Earl is telling the girl that Big Lips wants to rape her.
He's also saying that he is armed (wielding a deadly weapon).

Reinvent Q&A: How to Be a Good Job Hunter
Q: I am driven, hard working and smart, but I lack the self-discipline to look for a job. I have hired a career counselor, but I still can't muster the motivation I need and am always procrastinating. Do you have any advice for being a more effective job seeker?
A: Acknowledging the fact that you have a problem with self-discipline is half the battle. Next, you need to employ some strategies to conquer your natural tendency toward procrastination. Create a calendar of job search-related tasks that you will do each day and concentrate on checking as many of them off the list as you can. When the urge comes to do something else instead, force yourself to think about whether a momentary reprieve is worth having to overhaul the whole calendar to reschedule a particular task. You should also think about the big picture. Sometimes the most effective job hunting activities require the most effort and, in turn, produce the greatest rewards -- like a job that is satisfying and pays well. A final trick I use for procrastination is to start with the least complicated part of a particular task. Once I've finished one component, I gain momentum and it's a lot easier to keep moving.
Q: I've worked at a series of small companies where I've mostly done in-house computer programming. The projects were designed by me, built by me and serviced by me. However, my methods have since been replaced and I have no intention of learning new ones. I'm not sure what to do next. I'm nervous about entrepreneurship or working for a large company.
A: Here's the thing that stood out to me in your e-mail: "I have no intention of learning new methods." In order to stay marketable in any field, you have to keep your skills current. This is especially true in information technology, where technologies change rapidly. I know that it can be frustrating to be at a certain level in your career and still need to pursue education or certification, but to refuse to do so simply isn't practical. It seems to me that starting your own business or making the transition to a different type of organization won't solve your problem and will probably result in more work than revisiting your programming methods and determining what you need to learn to develop these home-grown applications in a twenty-first century small to medium-sized business.
Q: For 20 years, I ran an enormously successful business in Massachusetts, raised and educated three children, and kept a nice home. I retired, moved to California, began teaching, and pursued graduate education. Along the way I noticed gaping holes in knowledge among the students, so I wrote a book comparing those who succeed to those who fail. Now, I'm running up against brick walls promoting the book. What can I do to get my work reviewed?
A: Many people believe that the hardest part about writing a book is coming up with 60,000 words worth of material, but this is not the case. Promotion, which these days is moreand more the responsibility of the author, is far more difficult. Now that more than 300,000 new titles are published every year, even with an established platform in a particular industry it's hard to get noticed amidst all the noise. So don't be too hard on yourself. That said, there is one major thing that you can do to increase the likelihood that your book will get real or virtual ink. First, get to know the editors at the education trades and the writers of related blogs; volunteer to write expert guest pieces for them (instead of asking them outright for reviews). You'll be providing valuable content to their readers and your book will be promoted indirectly through the byline you'll get at the end of each piece.

A Priest Mocks Presidential
In the news, this evening some of the rhetorical remarks made against candidates Clinton and Barack weren't very good ones for a Presidential Candidate to have to hear.
A Catholic Priest is helped by Barack and when he can't get his way, he explodes on camera and to the Press he states that "We don't want to throw them under the bus."
Pfleger adopted four children to show his concern for the youth in his parish. One of the adopted youths was shot in 1998. He states that he doesn't like violence. But yeah he speaks of violence himself and those kinds of thoughts from a Priest.
He is a priest just like Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson, and even has a little bit of the personality of Martin Luther King, Jr.in him.
This Priest is slightly homicidal because he talks of putting people in their places and harming them.. Our President Ronald Reagan talked about how there were two Nancy's and he picked her. The other one he put away.. Pfleger is really domineering, feisty and self centered. His spoken words make me feel that way.
That is why I don't go outside very far from the place where I live until early morning because there is nobody outside until 10 a.m. At that time I go to the store and for a walk. When I take the bus, I pick it up at the corner a half block away. And it gets me to the library and back again.
Remember that Father Pfleger took a vow of Poverty, Chastity and obedience. That obedience meant only God's Law but the Law of the Land also.

When my daughter first started riding, the instructor spend about 30-40 minutes helping her to get the horse and get it ready for riding. The actual riding was 25-30 minutes, but I felt we were getting about an hour of instructor's time, and it felt reasonable.
Now the instructor tells her to get the horse herself, which my daughter is very proud of, but... The instructor checks her email or chats with someone while my daughter grooms and tacks up. The riding lesson is still 25-30 minutes long. Everyone's lesson in the barn (private lessons only there) is 30 minutes long. It seems that those who lease there also ride for about 30 minutes.
Is this a typical lesson length?

Macedonia appeals to Greece to stop blocking EU accession
(SKOPJE) - Macedonian Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski appealed Monday to Greece's new unity government to support the opening of EU accession talks for Macedonia despite a long-running name row.
"I appeal once more to your government ... to use this unique opportunity" to vote in favour of starting EU accession talks with Macedonia which will boost "the European integration of the whole Balkans region," Gruevski said in a letter to Greek PM Lucas Papademos.
He added that starting the accession talks would also help solve the bilateral tiff over the name issue which has been dragging on for decades.
According to the Macedonian leader the past has shown that "negotiating processes always are encouraging for overcoming bilateral challenges," adding that the opening of talks would boost the "mutual confidence needed for solving the bilateral problem."
Greece alleges that use of the name Macedonia suggests a territorial claim to the northern Greek province of the same name, while Skopje maintains that changing the name would be a denial of its own national identity and language.
After proclaiming independence in 1991, Macedonia was admitted to the United Nations in 1993 under the provisional name of the "Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia."
More than 120 countries including Russia and the United States, however, have recognised the Balkan country under the name of "Republic of Macedonia."
In 2008 Greece blocked Macedonia's NATO invitation and one year later prevented the EU from starting accession talks with Skopje despite three positive recommendations from the European Commission. Last month the commission again recommended that EU accession talks be opened with Skopje.

In retirement planning, have realistic expectations
Baby boomers are the first generation of do-it-yourself retirement planners.
Our parents and grandparents received defined benefit plans from their employers that guaranteed a certain income during retirement. All contributions and investment risks were the responsibility of the companies.
This changed in 1978 when Congress passed the Tax Revenue Act. Many Boomers are not prepared as retirement time is quickly approaching.
Boomers are lacking many of the same financial skills as the rest of society. We receive very little education about financial issues and do not have time to keep up with all of the changes.
We sometimes do not recognize these weaknesses because of the entire information overload that we experience every day. We are the generation that wants immediate gratification and thus, giving up enough of today's income for tomorrow's benefit is foreign to our nature.
Also, economic timing has been working against us.
Stock market crashes in 2000 and 2008 have made getting historic investment returns impossible. That is why some of our prime earning years are known as the lost decade.
Housing values have tumbled, which is often one of our two biggest assets.
We have often been asked what our tolerance for risk is. This is a constantly changing question and answer. When markets are rising, we believe that we can handle this risk. When markets are volatile or going down, we become intolerant to risk.
This is why too many of us try to time markets by jumping in and out. By doing this we achieve less total return than the overall markets does.
Many boomers got caught in the Great Recession. We got squeezed out of jobs and had to look for replacement opportunities when there were not many. These boomers not only lost income, but the chance to contribute to future retirement. Worse yet, some had to use retirement assets early just to stay afloat.
In a study done by the Federal Reserve, it was discovered that the median household headed by a person aged 60 to 62 had a 401(k) balance with less than one-quarter of the funds required to maintain their standard of living during retirement. One bright spot is boomers are expected to live longer than previous generations. Of course, this will mean that we need additional income.
Boomers are resourceful. Many will work a few more years than they originally thought. This will mean that we can earn income during our peak years a little longer and not need to tap savings as soon. We can allow Social Security to continue to grow and take advantage of delayed credits and cost-of-living increases.
It is important to know the difference between the accumulation phase and the distribution stage. The rules are completely different. We cannot tolerate as much risk during retirement. We need to have a foundation of guaranteed income to cover our basic necessities.
Many people have heard about the 4 percent rule during retirement. This says that if you take out 4 percent of your assets each year, indexed for inflation, you will not run out of money.
This rule actually comes from the Trinity Study. In this study, some professors studied historical data published by Ibbotson Associates to examine possible withdrawal rates based on historical market data. From this, they concluded that 4 percent was a fairly safe number.
There are a few shortcomings from this study. First, their research ignored taxes and investment expenses. Since most of this retirement money is coming out of qualified accounts, the recipients must pay taxes on the withdrawals. It is safe to say that there will be some expenses coming out for any investment.
Maybe the biggest thing that the rule does not consider is the sequence of returns risk. Simply, this means that if there is a market correction early in the withdrawal cycle, you will run out of money much quicker than if any decline comes later in your cycle. Averages can be the same, but a sudden drop followed by later large increases will not keep you from running out of money. As you dip into more of the principle, there is not enough to earn back the losses.
The best way to protect yourself is to have realistic expectations and work with a distribution specialist.
Brokers often do not have the full arsenal of products available to meet all of the retirement challenges.
Gary Boatman is a certified financial planner and a local businessman who serves as president of the Monessen Chamber of Commerce.

Rate Low - Go Fast: The story behind how an SS34 won the George Law Foundation Ocean Race
Back to the future – New generation S&S34 "Blondie" blitzes the fleet under her new code zero foresail.
How did Blondie, a standard S&S34 launched in 2007, spectacularly take an overall win in the George Law Foundation Ocean Race by more than nine minutes on corrected time?
Owner Simon Torvaldsen's brief to sailmaker Will Hammond of Doyle Sails WA was to fill the performance gap in the S&S34's inventory. Torvaldsen found that the classic 1967 design yacht was very effective on the wind but, when fetching, the lighter yachts were out-sailing her.
Head of sail design for Doyle's Australasia group Richard Bouzaid developed a high on the wind Code 0 and recommended that the size of the #1 be dropped from 150% to 135%. As the Code 0 becomes the boats third spinnaker, the net result is the boat now rates lower than its former configuration by 11.7 seconds an hour, but sails faster.
The George Law Foundation Race was a perfect race for Code 0 sails as the long leg from Fremantle to the north eastern end of Rottnest was a fetch and then the next long leg from the west end of Rotto' to Garden Island was also just off the wind, providing perfect conditions for Blondie to show off her optimised wardrobe of Doyle sails.
The first five boats on corrected time overall were Blondie, General Lee, Bad Habits, Al Fresco and Optimus Prime, a great mix of small and large yachts.

Event motto: If you have been successful send the elevator back down
On 3rd December 2008 UBS played host to the Female Internet Heroes Event organised by The Next Women in collaboration with Fresh Ideas Events. The evening was a resounding success and a total sell out days before the event. Chaired by Lisa Sounio of social network Dopplr, the evening began with drinks and stalls from five companies: Remote Employment, The Language Of…, Mint Twist, Blu Bangle and Socialite London.
With everyone seated in great anticipation, Jackie Brennan of Fresh Ideas Events set the stage for the speakers to follow with a mentoring anecdote from Jack Lemon: 'If you have been successful then send the elevator back down'. Simone Brummelhuis continued in this vain as she introduced the concept behind The NextWomen and online business.
With humour in the air, UBS stepped in for a gloomy outlook on the global economy – banks no longer lending; falling house prices and job losses, but as with every optimistic entrepreneur Simone pointed out the positives – a market swamped with highly qualified people all looking for work. Exactly what a start-up needs.
The enigmatic Katarina Skoberne – co-founder of OpenAd.net - was the first of three speakers with an inspiring presentation on the journey of an online business from start to finish. Kept on her toes by Lisa's timekeeping, she embellished her knowledge with her own life story, proving if you have entrepreneurial spirit and the drive you can make anything happen.
Responsible for planning, creating and executing media partnerships for the UK's largest women's website – ivillage.co.uk - Lulu Phongmany shared her experience on business development and revenue generation. It was then to Andrea Cockerton, founder of Mudhut, to talk the nitty gritty of finance. Interviewed by Katarina Skoberne, she gave the essential parts to a successful pitch:
• A growing market
• Correct management – experienced and likeable
• An idea that makes the most of the market
Having heard from the experienced, it was time for four start-ups to pitch their ideas to Katarina, Andrea and Jenny Fielding of Astia. The prize – mentoring from Andrea Cockerton herself.
Julia Macmillan started with three minutes on toyboywarehouse.com and its 15,000 registered members which went live in 2007. Next was Sue Guerrieri of SugaPlumShop.com, a start-up for age appropriate teenage underwear. Then came Anna Colclough of Tourdust.com a site looking to provide Long Trail travel, and finally Alicia Navarro, founder of Skimbit.com who now introduced the new product Skimlinks.
After questioning from both the panel and the assembled entrepreneurs, the prize went to the aptly named tobyboywarehouse.com – an online dating site for older ladies to find younger men, leaving us all wishing we had come up with the idea first.
Armed with plenty of food for thought, the 100 women (and indeed the odd man) headed back to an evening of networking over champagne and nibbles before heading home, no doubt, to dream up their next business venture.

In pictures: 9/11 memorial unveiled at Ground Zero
The official 9/11 memorial in New York has been unveiled in advance of the 10th anniversary of the attacks
The Reflecting Absence design, by architect Michael Arad , features waterfalls cascading into reflecting pools where the towers stood. The scheme was chosen ahead of more than 5,000 entrants into a design contest in 2004.
The names of all those killed on September 11, 2001, and in the World Trade Center attack on February 26, 1993, are inscribed on bronze parapets surrounding the waterfalls in the exact footprint of the former Twin Towers.
The fountains stand in an three hectare paved plaza, and are nestled within a grove of swamp white oak trees that will grow as tall as 18m.
The memorial will open to the public on September 12, 2011.
A museum showcasing remnants of the original Trade Centre will open next year.

Packing List
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Be prepared for anything, weather-wise. The saying in Boulder is, 'if you don't like the weather, just wait 15 minutes!' You can wear shorts in January, or it can snow in May -- you really never know what to expect. But, no matter what the weather, you can count on the sun coming out again soon.
Sun and Tundra
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Bring sunscreen...you're up nice and close to the sun in the mountains. Protect yourself!
Bring moisturizer...for everything! Your lips will chap and your skin will turn to dust without some sort of moisture being applied.
Miscellaneous: Water. Carry it wherever you go.
- Family Travel
- Hiking and Walking
Dress in Layers
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Hiking boots, Fleece, clothes you can layer. People here are obsessed with these rubber shoes called "Crocks."
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: lip balm! carry it everywhere and have it at all times. Also - sunblock!!!
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: A "Camelback" or water bottle for hiking
- Hiking and Walking
Sunglasses a must
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Colorado brags of 300 sunny days per year. In addition, the high altitude and low humidity means relatively little protection from ultraviolet rays. Bring sunglasses that protect against UV, and don't forget the sunscreen.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Sunscreen, mosquito repellent
Photo Equipment: The mountains are stunning, but fancy equipment is tough to carry while climbing the flatirons or hiking mountain parks. A small digital camera might be best.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: A sweater or light jacket is useful even in summer, given the change in temperature from morning to evening. If you want to blend in with the locals, opt for a fleece vest.
Miscellaneous: Most anything you've forgotten can be picked up at McGuckin Hardware, a favorite because it's locally-owned and community oriented. McGuckin's is not a bad place for people-watching, at that.
- Study Abroad
- Hiking and Walking
Enjoy Yourself & Avoid Embarassing Rescues
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Bring good hiking boots. Sneakers are not good enough. It is very painful limping down from a hike with a sprained ankle. It is humiliating to be rescued by 25 overly enthusiastic boulder rescue volunteers.
It goes from hot to cold here very quickly. Wear Layers: You want capilene, light or heavy weight or a similar fabric that wicks away moisture while keeping you warm. It is also helpful to have a layer to repel snow or rain to go on top. Those nifty raincoats that cram into one pocket of the raincoat are handy.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Sunblock is key here. We get amazing sunburns due to our altitude. Bug repellant is very important in late Spring and Summer because we have had West Nile problems with mosquitos. Use alot of both!
A good first aid kit is wise if you plan to hike much; it should have an ace bandage, antiseptic wipes and bandaids, ibuprofen and tylenol.. Typical injuries are road rash from crashing on mountain bikes, twisted ankles and bruises and scrapes from falls while climbing.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: You should have a below zero bag if you plan to camp. Even in July you can get a blizzard in the high country. Make sure you have a three season tent for most conditions just in case. A stove is good, of course. Bring something to treat water unless you plan to boil all your drinking water. Bring your compass and get good maps.
Miscellaneous: If you plan to backcountry ski, for heaven sake don't let anybody rent you a goofy little touring package with the thin skis, flimsy pools and little elf boots. You will hate back country skiing for the rest of your life. Instead rent fatter skiis with metal edges so you can carve turns, get leather boots that don't have too much flex so you have ankle protection and support and can make turns, get telescoping poles if possible with self arrest grips if you plan to ski anything steep.

Labor Force and Industry Developments - Maryland Monthly Labor Review - September 2009
Following a downward revision to 7.1 percent in August, Marylands seasonally adjusted unemployment rate inched up a notch to a preliminary rate of 7.2 percent in September. Unemployment in Maryland, which has remained relatively unchanged since May, remains below that of the nation which was reported at 9.8 percent in September.
During September, Maryland employers cut about 3,600 jobs from their business payrolls a decline which, when compared to the average monthly loss of 4,700 jobs experienced through August 2009, can be viewed as a sign that the job market is beginning to stabilize. Septembers downsizing was concentrated primarily in accommodations, professional/business/scientific services, retail trade and state government.
The most significant movement in industrial activity during September was the addition of 1,400 jobs reported in the construction sector a gain which follows eighteen months of consecutive declines.
Despite an uptick in unemployment and an overall decline on statewide business payrolls, the recessionary pressures in the job market have begun to show signs of abating. While the economy may be poised for a comeback, however, Maryland, as well as the nation, faces an arduous task in repairing the damage from the economic freefall and restoring the economy to its pre-recession equilibrium. The recession has, thus far, added nearly 107,000 persons to the statewide unemployment rolls and diminished Marylands business payrolls by close to 80,000 jobs.
Locally, August September is a transition period in the labor market. The exodus of students and other summer workers from the job market enters its final phase. Movements in nonseasonally adjusted unemployment rates were mixed during September. Thirteen of the local jurisdictions reported unemployment rates at or below the states nonseasonally adjusted estimate, with rates in Montgomery and Howard counties the lowest at 5.3 percent and 5.4 percent, respectively.

Game Review on Feb 5th, 2013
This game deserves a 10/10. That is because first, it is an excellent strategy game that puts many things from real life into it. Second, it includes many major cities and all capitals, which is fantastic to the conquest. Third, the game includes a feature to be able to make maps and scenarios, which is amazing! Finally, the players online are fun to play with and a challenge, as it is not just a single player experience.

ALBANY — A two-page letter in May from Sen. Michael Nozzolio to constituents promotes a new Viniculture Center being built at Finger Lakes Community College that the Republican senator helped fund.
A four-page glossy mailer from Sen. Ruth Hassell-Thompson, a Democrat from Mount Vernon, Westchester County, shows her sitting at her desk, smiling and says, I write to provide you with an update of the 2012 Legislative Session thus far. She wrote that more work needs to be done in Albany.
Constituents often receive a steady stream of mail from state lawmakers, and the taxpayers pay for it.
The public was on the hook for $6.8 million in state spending on lawmakers mail between October 2011 and March 2012, according to the latest figures available, a review by Gannetts Albany Bureau found.
The mail shows lawmakers shaking hands with business owners, or them with the popular Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Critics said that while its important for legislators to communicate with their constituents, the mailers are usually campaign ads disguised as official business.
It should be content driven, and all too frequently what we see in these mailers are self-promotion, said Susan Lerner, executive director of Common Cause/NY.
Records showed wide disparities in how much the lawmakers spent on mail, and some said theyve given it up in favor of social media a less expensive, more direct communication.
Twenty-four lawmakers spent more than $75,000 each over the six-month period on direct mail. The periods spending wasnt unique, and historically the spending ramps up closer to election time.
All 213 seats in the Legislature are up for election this year. Legislators are prohibited from sending out official mailings and newsletters 30 days prior to a primary contest and 60 days before a general election.
Prior to the 2010 elections, state lawmakers spent about $7.8 million on mailers. And a majority of the money goes to the parties in power, which critics say creates an unfair advantage for incumbents.
Lawmakers have allotments on how much they can generally spend on correspondence, which includes at least two district-wide mailers a year.
Senators receive $10,800 for first-class mail and $21,000 for bulk-rate mail. They also receive money for newsletters, with the cost based on the size of the district.
Minority members who hold top positions on committees receive an additional $11,000 for mail. Majority-party senators receive an additional $52,000 a year.
Between October and March, Assembly Democrats spent $1.7 million on mail. Assembly Republicans, who have 49 members compared with 101 Democratic members, spent nearly half that.
The disparity wasnt as great in the Senate, where in 2009 a leadership coup forced the majority to more equally share resources with the minority party. Republicans, who control the Senate with a 33-29 seat majority, spent $2.4 million on mail, compared with $1.7 million for Democrats.
Some lawmakers defended their mail privilege, saying it provides helpful information to the people they represent.
Sen. William Larkin, R-New Windsor, Orange County, spent $156,881 over the six-month period the most of any lawmaker. Second was Sen. Adriano Espaillat, D-Bronx, at nearly $140,000, followed by Sen. Kenneth Lavalle, R-Port Jefferson, Suffolk County, and Nozzolio, who spent nearly $114,000. Nozzolio is from Fayette, Seneca County, and his district includes part of the eastern greater Rochester area.
Larkin said most of the correspondence related to last years tropical storms Irene and Lee. His Hudson Valley district was hit hard by the storms.
You have to depend on mailers because you just dont have enough staff to sit at a typewriter and type each individual letter, Larkin said.
Nozzolio did not return calls seeking comment.
Senate Republicans have promoted their frugality since regaining the majority in 2011. They said the Senate spent $11 million less than budgeted in the 2011-12 fiscal year, which ended March 31.
New York has one of the most expensive legislatures in the nation, at a cost of about $219 million a year.
The Senates budget is about $92 million, and it spent $81.3 million in the last fiscal year. The budget in the Democratic-led Assembly is $105 million, and it spent about $8 million less than budgeted, a spokesman said last month.
For the six-month period that ended in March, the Legislature spent a total of $102 million on staff and their offices.
Some lawmakers said theyve stopped mailers and use social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, to interact with residents.
Assemblyman James Tedisco, R-Schenectady, spent $355 on mailing costs between October and March. He is leading an effort to cut down the paper usage at the Capitol and seeking a constitutional change to no longer require printed copies of bills which can stack high on lawmakers desks.
He said the mailers are a waste of money amid the technological advances.
I think using social media and getting out personally to shake hands, ring doorbells, go to events, is the way to do it when you are facing deficits and people cant find jobs, he said.
Assemblyman Kevin Cahill, D-Kingston, said he will send out a mailer occasionally, but only to provide information to residents. He spent $808 on mail between October and March.
I cringe when they come to my door for other people, Cahill said. We shouldnt be paying for campaign literature. My brochures are informational.

Restorative justice program facilitates dialogue between victims and offenders
By Audrey Posten
The term restorative justice is a theory that emphasizes repairing the harm caused by crime. In order to do so, programs focus on the needs of both victims and offenders, as well as the community involved.
For the past 13 years, the Ridge and Valley Restorative Justice program (formerly Crawford County Restorative Justice) has facilitated dialogue between crime victims and offenders, allowing victims to speak candidly with offenders and ask questions that were not answered through the justice system.
Coordinator Robin Cline said the program deals with roughly 20 adult and juvenile cases each year. Most referrals come from the court or the Department of Human Services, and are usually in addition to a fine or jail sentence.
"It's not a way to get off easy," Cline said. "It holds the offender accountable in ways the courts can't."
Cline said that vandalism, breaking and entering, theft and disorderly conduct are the most common crimes the program mediates over. It does not handle crimes like domestic abuse or sexual assault.
"A big number is breaking in and stealing money for drugs and alcohol," Cline said. "It's a tangled thing. It's hard to make a dent in the addiction, but it gets the offender face-to-face with the victim."
Cline said she and other program facilitators often discuss the ripple effect with offenders, demonstrating how the crime ripples out to the offender's family and friends, then on to those of the victim, as well as the community as a whole.
Cline said most of the evaluations have been positive.
"It's really eye opening for both sides," she said. "It's hard for victims to imagine that they should give something back to the offender, but they often give help, whether it's helping them find community service opportunities or checking in with how school's going. It's all about accountability and preventing other crimes from happening."
The number of mediation meetings varies depending on circumstances, but Cline said there is usually a prep meeting to see if the mediation can move forward, followed by one meeting with each party, then one together.
By the end, Cline said, victims feel more empowered and offenders are more prepared to healthily integrate back into the community.
However, Ridge and Valley Restorative Justice does more than victim/offender mediation. The program also offers family group conferencing, community mediation, victim impact panels and prison programming.
When the program first began, it was called Crawford County Restorative Justice. However, since the program was not being funded by Crawford County, and other area counties without programs were seeking assistance, Cline said Ridge and Valley was a more inclusive, regional term. The program now serves Crawford, Grant, Vernon and other area counties.
Cline said funding for the program has dwindled over the years, so it is largely held together by fundraising, as well as contributions from entities like the Catholic Campaign for Human Development and the United Way. Cline is the program's only employee, and she just works part-time. She relies on 15 trained volunteer facilitators for help, along with 30 to 40 other volunteers who help with fundraising and administrative tasks.
The program also welcomes new volunteers and volunteer facilitators. Cline said there is no facilitator training session currently scheduled, but that, with enough interest, one could be formed.
"Crime impacts the community as a whole," Cline said, "so both victims and offenders need the community to help them heal and move forward."
Those who would like to volunteer, or are interested in learning more, can contact Ridge and Valley Restorative Justice at (608) 326-2407 or email@example.com.
