East Bay couples celebrate nuptials
Civil marriage is a civil right - that was the message from many activists and elected officials on Monday, June 16, as county officials began issuing licenses for the first legally-recognized same-sex marriages in the state.
In Alameda County - home to a thriving community of LGBT people of color - the message also included a celebration of racial and ethnic diversity and an affirmation from spiritual leaders.
The historic day in the East Bay kicked off with an afternoon press conference hosted by Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums, joined by representatives from communities of faith who came to give their blessing to the unions. It culminated in 18 public ceremonies, held in a packed City Council Chambers later that evening.
"We are here to celebrate a love that is daring, difficult, and dangerous," said the Reverend Lynice Pinkard of Oakland's First Congregational Church, who spoke first at the afternoon press conference. "Love is not a feeling, it is a discipline."
Pinkard added that government efforts to discriminate against LGBT people "have only fortified our repentant resolve. There is something in our spiritual DNA that longs for justice and makes us willing to bear the cost for it."
The Reverend Phil Lawson of San Francisco's Jones Memorial United Methodist Church said same-sex couples could now "have something my wife and I have enjoyed for 34 years - a public celebration of love."
He added that with barriers to same-sex marriage gone, "we will be able to negotiate what it means to live in community."
The Reverend Dr. Mark Wilson also spoke, recalling a time 30 years ago when Dellums, then a congressman and civil rights leader, visited his college classroom to talk about apartheid.
"When I think about that day, I think about how you were setting free our consciousness," Wilson said, addressing Dellums in particular. The fact that Dellums would now preside over some of the first same-sex marriages in California, said Wilson, would have a positive impact on "some LGBT, queer, or intersex child growing up ... being told they are hated."
Several speakers at the press conference applauded Dellums's courage in his decision to openly celebrate the marriages. But Dellums, who was deputized last Friday in order to be able to preside over the ceremonies, rejected such praise.
"Forty years ago ... it took courage. It took no courage today," said Dellums. "The law is with us."
Dellums then refused to answer questions from reporters about the possibility of losing same-sex marriage to a ballot initiative in November.
"Today is about celebration," he said.
They do
Several hours later, Oakland's council chambers began to fill up shortly after 5 p.m. Wedding guests left bouquets on their friends' reserved chairs to celebrate the ceremonies, which were scheduled to begin at 6 p.m.
The weddings got off to a late start: the county clerk's office had to download the new state license forms, according to Miguel Bustos, director of intergovernmental affairs for Dellums, and then each couple had to be processed and get to City Hall, several blocks away.
But once the couples entered the chambers around 6:45 p.m., the roar of the crowd - estimated to be over 300 people - bounced off the walls and resonated for several minutes.
Oakland's first same-sex married couples, said Bustos, were recruited for the public event largely by word of mouth. They all had already intended to get married in California anyway (rather than just being swept up in the historic moment). They also were chosen specifically with the intent to represent Oakland's extraordinary diversity.
And represent it they did - Latinos, African Americans, Palestinians, and Jews shared the day with mixed-race couples, some older, some younger, some with children, some without.
Traditional customs were practiced, noted Bustos: an African American lesbian couple jumped over a broom on their way to the center of the room; a gay Jewish couple (Bay Area Reporter arts writer Jason Victor Serinus and his partner David James Bellecci) stepped on a plastic water bottle and were serenaded in Hebrew by members of the audience; a Native American lesbian carried sage.
Couples were called up separately by name. Each ceremony took about 5-10 minutes, including mostly traditional vows and ending with Dellums and Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-Oakland), who served as a witness, signing the forms. There were funny moments, like excitedly rushed "I do's" and extra-long kisses receiving hollers from the crowd. There were also many tears of joy.
The first couple to be married was Karen Boyd and Samee Roberts. The City Hall employees met in 1998, got together in 1999, registered as domestic partners in 2003, married in San Francisco in 2004, and are mothers to a 20-month-old son named Quinn.
The sixth couple to be married - Huda Judallah and Deanna Karraa - are Palestinian-Americans who have been together for over 17 years. They registered as domestic partners with the city of San Francisco in 1995 and with the state of California in 2001, and are mothers to three children. Karraa is a public health nurse with Alameda County, and Jadallah is a doctoral candidate in sociology who works on issues related to queer Arab American families.
Couple number eight was none other than Bay Area Reporter news editor Cynthia Laird and her partner Victoria Kolakowski, an administrative law judge with the California Public Utilities Commission. The pair met in 1994 and quickly fell in love, marrying in San Francisco in 2004 and later registering as domestic partners with the state.
The 11th couple - Jason Fernando Cornejo and Mauricio Edgar Calderon - have been together since 1997, and punctuated their ceremony on Monday night with tears.
"It is our pride and pleasure to be a part of this historic civil rights movement and [we] look forward to the time when racism and discrimination against same-sex marriage will all be but a fleeting memory," the couple wrote in the program notes.
Longtime LGBT community leader Karen Anderson married her partner Gwen Booze. Marriage Equality USA members Mauricio ("Moe") Perez and Ryan James also tied the knot.
Moments in time
While the press conference and weddings themselves were historic, some of the smaller moments leading up to the big event were perhaps the most telling.
Shortly after 9 a.m. on Monday at a downtown Oakland drug store, for instance, a cashier and a customer, both African American, discussed the pending nuptials.
"I don't care about anybody's sexual preference," the customer said.
"Look at Queen Latifah," the cashier agreed.
At lunchtime, a group of colleagues sustained a friendly banter as they shared their views.
"I don't mind it until you bring kids into it," one woman said to the crowd.
"Now wait a minute," her friend pointed out, "you think all of the straight people we know and work with make the best parents?"
Even the rare premeditated protests weren't all that large or lively. At the afternoon news conference, a minister stood in the courtyard and began to speak loudly about Jesus, condemning the gay nuptials. He was quickly interrupted and derailed.
"It's not about Jesus, it's about love," activist Roosevelt Mosby chanted repeatedly. "And I know Jesus."
The minister attempted to make his case, to which Mosby said, "You're not going to do that today."
"All right, brother," the minister said, then extended his hand before he walked away. "God bless you."
"God bless you," Mosby responded, and shook the minister's hand.
Another sign of the times: later that evening, as hundreds of people sat in council chambers waiting for couples to arrive, text messages alerted wedding guests to the delays.
"She says they're in a room waiting for their numbers to be called," an Oakland city worker said as she looked at her cell phone around 5:45 p.m.
Meanwhile, at the county clerk's office, Bustos was helping to organize the couples as they waited for their paperwork to be processed.
At that point, said Bustos, one of the couples turned to him and said, "We've waited 30 years for this ... we can wait another 30 minutes."

I usually have a long to do list. I found that if I do something on the list, and then reward myself with something like a walk outside with the dogs, exercise on the treadmill, a chapter in a good book, or time on sparkpeople, I can work my way through much of my list without struggle.
205 Don't just reward yourself for the big goal, reward yourself for the small goals that lead up to the big goal.
I created a list of rewards for each 10 lb milestone. Each reward is better than the previous one. For example, my rewards are: Spark Goodie, new workout gear, dragon figurine, leather jacket, professional family photo, and a full spa day when I hit goal. My reward for my stretch goal is a Past, Present, and Future diamond ring. Now that's worth some time on the elliptical!
We all need rewards as motivation - they help us look forward to the work. But don't reward yourself with food. That doesn't get you closer to your weight loss goal and it sets a bad habit.As my aunt said the other day: You aren't a dog, so don't reward your behavior with treats!Instead, find non-food rewards such as trips, reading time, shoes, clothes, pool time, pedicure or manicure, spa day, or anything else you want to do or have always wanted to do but never found the time!

Associated Press
POSTED: 9:38 p.m. HST, Oct 27, 2012
LAST UPDATED: 2:26 a.m. HST, Oct 28, 2012
ANCHORAGE, Alaska >> As many people along Hawaii's coasts rushed to higher ground, officials downgraded a tsunami warning to an advisory for southern Alaska and British Columbia. They also issued an advisory for areas of northern California and southern Oregon.
In Alaska, the wave or surge was recorded at 4 inches, much smaller than forecast, said Jeremy Zidek, a spokesman for the Alaska Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake hit in the Queen Charlotte Islands area. The quake was felt in Craig and other southeast Alaska communities, but Zidek said there were no immediate reports of damage.
The West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center issued a warning for coastal areas of southeast Alaska, down the western Canadian coast to the tip of Vancouver Island.
Later Saturday evening, the warning for those areas was downgraded to an advisory, while a warning was issued for Hawaii.
In addition, officials issued an advisory for areas from Gualala Point, Calif., about 80 miles northwest of San Francisco, to the Douglas-Lane county line in Oregon, about 10 miles southwest of Florence.
The Del Norte County Sheriff's Department, based in Crescent City, Calif., near the Oregon line, said it hadn't heard of any problems as a result of the tsunami. Crescent City was one of the U.S. towns hit hardest by last year's tsunami from the Japan quake, with boats in the harbor suffering serious damage.
By early Sunday morning, all warnings and advisories for coastal areas of North American had been canceled, except for a stretch of California coast beginning 80 miles north of San Francisco and stretching to the Oregon line, which remained under an advisory.
A tsunami warning means an area is likely to be hit by a wave, while an advisory means there may be strong currents, but that widespread inundation is not expected to occur.
Fryer said it's not surprising that an earthquake so far away could generate dangerous waves in Hawaii.
"There is nothing between Canada and us that would scatter the energy, so once the beam is formed, it just points right at us," Fryer said.
The U.S. Coast Guard in Alaska said it was warning warn everyone with a boat on the water to prepare for a potential tsunami.
The first wave hit Craig about two hours after the earthquake.
"It started off where it might be a 3-foot wave, and it kept getting downgraded," Craig Mayor Dennis Watson said. "And the last time we heard, it was less than 1 foot."
It actually was recorded at 4 inches. Watson said he was downtown on the waterfront, and had his car lights shining on pylons.
"I didn't even see the surge. I watched the pylons. And the tides came in about four or five inches. The surge would leave a wet spot as it would go back out, and we never did see that," he said.
There could be subsequent waves in Craig, but an official with the tsunami warning center didn't think it would amount to much.
The first wave "typically is not the largest but nevertheless we don't expect the maximum wave height to be large," said Bill Knight.
The state Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management activated its emergency operations center and notified officials in southeast Alaska communities.
Lt. Bernard Auth of the Juneau Command Center said the Coast Guard was also working with local authorities to alert people in coastal towns to take precautions.
Lucy Jones, a USGS seismologist, said the earthquake likely would not generate a large tsunami.
"This isn't that big of an earthquake on tsunami scales," she said. "The really big tsunamis are usually up in the high 8s and 9s."
She said the earthquake occurred along a "fairly long" fault - "a plate 200 kilometers long" in a subduction zone, where one plate slips underneath another. Such quakes lift the sea floor and tend to cause tsunamis, she said.
In Craig, officials implement an emergency plan, and took fire trucks, ambulances and heavy equipment to higher ground.
"If nothing else it was a good exercise in determining how well our disaster plan works. I thought it came off quite well, really," he said.
Watson said he did receive calls from townspeople about the tsunami.
"There's supposed to be a big Halloween party downtown. People are calling, 'Did the wave hit yet so we can go to the party?"' he said.

1 One day when the sons of God came to stand in front of the Lord, Satan the Accuser came along with them.
2 The Lord asked Satan, "Where have you come from?"
Satan answered the Lord, "From wandering all over the earth."
3 The Lord asked Satan, "Have you thought about my servant Job? No one in the world is like him! He is a man of integrity: He is decent, he fears God, and he stays away from evil. And he still holds on to his principles. You're trying to provoke me into ruining him for no reason."
4 Satan answered the Lord, "Skin for skin! Certainly, a man will give everything he has for his life. 5 But stretch out your hand, and strike his flesh and bones. I bet he'll curse you to your face."
6 The Lord told Satan, "He is in your power, but you must spare his life!"
Job's Second Crisis
7 Satan left the Lord's presence and struck Job with painful boils from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. 8 Job took a piece of broken pottery to scratch himself as he sat in the ashes.
9 His wife asked him, "Are you still holding on to your principles? Curse God and die!"
10 He said to her, "You're talking like a godless fool. We accept the good that God gives us. Shouldn't we also accept the bad?"
Through all this Job's lips did not utter one sinful word.
11 When Job's three friends heard about all the terrible things that had happened to him, each of them came from his home—Eliphaz of Teman, Bildad of Shuah, Zophar of Naama. They had agreed they would go together to sympathize with Job and comfort him.
12 When they saw him from a distance, they didn't even recognize him. They cried out loud and wept, and each of them tore his own clothes in grief. They threw dust on their heads. 13 Then they sat down on the ground with him for seven days and seven nights. No one said a word to him because they saw that he was in such great pain.

The Search Engine Strategies (SES) New York 2009 Conference and Expo started a Tweet storm earlier today. The opening keynote was by Guy Kawasaki, a founding partner and entrepreneur-in-residence at Garage Technology Ventures, who spoke about "Twitter as a Tool for Social Media."
1. Andrew LaVallee of The Wall Street Journal Digits Blog captured the top story of SES New York in his headline, "Guy Kawasaki Can Handle Being Called a Spammer." LaVallee wrote, "To kick off his keynote speech at SES, a marketing conference in New York, Guy Kawasaki asked how many people in the audience were on Twitter at that moment. Hands shot up across the packed ballroom."
2. Mel Carson, Microsoft's adCenter Community Manager for Europe, posted photos of the event on his blog in a post entitled, "SES New York Photos -- Day 1." One of his photos shows the volume of Tweets about Kawasaki bringing down Twitter during his keynote.
3. Anna Maria Virzi of ClickZ focused on the Twitter tips and tools that Kawasaki shared in his keynote in her story entited, "Twitter Tips: Advice from Evangelist Guy Kawasaki."
4. I was able to interview Kawasaki after his keynote and asked him how Alltop, the "online magazine rack" of popular topics, has used Twitter to promote itself. Despite some audio problems (which have since fixed), I also asked Kawasaki abut a new term he had coined called "UFM."
Guy Kawasaki Tweets About Twitter Twits & his Reality Check
Although Kawasaki's keynote about Twitter was the top story at SES New York, there were others.
5. For example, Mike McDonald of WebProNews interviewed Matt McGowan, Vice President and Publisher for Incisive Media's Interactive Marketing Group, about highlights from SES New York 2009. According to McGowan, SES NY will house more than 5,000 people this week including over 100 exhibitors and sponsors in the Expo Hall.Highlighting SES NY 2009
6. Another top story was the session, "SEO: Where to Next?" Lisa Barone of Outspoken Media covered this session in a post appropriately entitled, "SEO -- Where to Next." According to Barone, "You know what my favorite thing about SES is? It comes with Mike Grehan."
7. Another top story was the session on "Budget Migration: Going Digital Without Impacting Your Brand." John Gaffney of the Econsultancy Blog covered this session in a post entitled, "Century 21, Avon ring up total digital makeovers."
8. Peter Provost of the AimClear Blog covered the "Survival of the Fittest 2.0" session. His post is entitled, "Bad Economy? Party like 1999, Market like 2009."
9. Bas van den Beld of SearchCowboys.com shared several photos from the event in his post entitled, "Looking at SES New York."
10. Finally, one of the ten top stories was the Exhibit Hall traffic visiting the 100 sponsors and exhibitors at SES New York 2009. My post to the Search Engine Marketing News Blog on Search Engine Watch was entitled, "SES New York is a Search Expo as well as an SEM Conference."

|Blood flow changes in hepatocellular carcinoma after the administration of thalidomide assessed by reperfusion kinetics during microbubble infusion: preliminary results.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 16355035 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVES: We sought to investigate whether thalidomide is able to produce tumor vascular changes in patients with untreatable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that can be detected using microbubble contrast agents. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eleven consecutive patients with untreatable HCC underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasound before and during thalidomide administration. Real-time destruction reperfusion kinetics was obtained from a representative HCC nodule and from the surrounding liver parenchyma during SonoVue infusion (Bracco, Milan, Italy) at a constant rate of 0.10 mL/s by using a syringe pump and modelized according to the mathematical function SI = A(1 - exp(-betat)) where the plateau signal intensity A reflects the percent blood volume, the time constant beta reflects the average speed of blood, and their product A*beta reflects the nutrient blood flow. RESULTS: Size of the representative nodule reduced significantly 3 to 6 months after the start of thalidomide treatment. Before thalidomide administration A, beta, and A*beta of the index lesion were 44 +/- 60 LIU, 0.31 +/- 0.40 seconds and 8.1 +/- 11.8 LIU/s, respectively). A and A*beta reduced significantly after 15 days (26 +/- 50 LIU and 2.9 +/- 4.8 LIU/s, P < 0.01), 3 months (12 +/- 18 LIU, and 4.3 +/- 7.7 LIU/s, P < 0.01), and 6 months (13 +/- 23 LIU and 2.4 +/- 3.7 LIU/s, P < 0.05) of treatment. No statistically significant changes of the exponential time constant beta were observed, nor changes of A, beta and A*beta in the liver parenchyma. CONCLUSIONS: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound can be used effectively to evaluate changes in perfusion parameters of HCC nodules during thalidomide administration.

It is more than 1000 times safer than ordinary black powder since it is not flammable and can not be initiated by any kind of flame or electricity. It is supplied as two powders which are combined to produce the explosive. Tannerite is a trademarked name, and binary exploding targets are a patented invention by Daniel J. Tanner/Oregon.
Tannerite Company recommends using 0.5-pound (0.23 kg) preparations of the substance, which should detonate when shot by a high-powered rifle. Small caliber rim-fire or slow moving pistol ammunition will not initiate a detonation.
Tannerite detonations occur at a very high velocity, producing a large explosion and cloud of water vapor. It may be useful for persons who are firing at long ranges; in this scenario, a long-range rifle shooter places targets downrange, retreats to his firing position, and fires. The shooter does not have to walk down range to see if he has a hit, the Tannerite will detonate and serve as an indicator.
Since the two components are not explosive until mixed, they can legally be purchased in the USA without a license. They can be legally used for sporting purposes in conjunction with small arms, just like black powder and other exempt sporting powder.Learn More

Celebrities like Rishi Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh, including his sister Farah Khan, poured best wishes for Sajid Khan on his 45th birthday.
Choreographer-director Farah Khan celebrated Rakshabandhan with her brother Sajid Khan and filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala, nine days ahead of the festival as she will be soon leaving for Iceland.
After actor Arshad Warsi, director Sajid Khan has hosted a couple of episodes of 'Comedy Nights With Kapil', as the original host Kapil Sharma recovers from an injury.
Sajid Khan was welcomed by filmmaker sister Farah Khan and friend Karan Johar.
I've realised there is an academic side to acting that was missing from my process.
Speaking for the first time on stories about 'Humshakals'; Bipasha Basu takes a deep breath and sets the record straight.
Sajid-Farhad, who is stepping into Sajid Khan's shoes to direct 'Housefull 3', say the former has been trashed enough and it is time to let him be.
"No, I will never work with him (Sajid Khan). I have nothing against Vashu-ji and Fox Star Studios," said Bipasha Basu.
After the comic caper Humshakals, Sajid Khan took a fortnight long break
Farah Khan feels the critics are biased towards "arty, slow and a bit boring" movies.
Here are the best jokes on Twitter about Sajid Khan.
Humshakals released on Friday and Sajid Khan is back with an out and out comic timing.
Sajid Khan is famous for making his audiences convert theatre doors into escape routes.
Ahead of the Express LOL review, here are the funniest Humshakals jokes on the internet.
Any comic caper is incomplete without entertaining songs and that is exactly what we think was the brief given by Sajid Khan to composer Himesh Reshammiya for the soundtrack of Humshakals

November 30, 2015
BAGHDAD (AP) - There's been another deadly bombing attack
against Shiite pilgrims in Iraq. Officials say 35 people were
killed and more than 60 others were injured in an attack today by a
female suicide bomber south of Baghdad.
A police official says the bomber set off her explosives among
pilgrims walking to the holy city of Karbala.
Medical officials in nearby hospitals say most of the dead and
wounded were women and children.
It's the third straight day of deadly bombings against Shiite
The attacks appear to be part of a campaign by Sunni extremists
to reignite the sectarian conflict that nearly plunged Iraq into
full-scale civil war two years ago.
Attacks Wednesday and yesterday killed at least 20 people and
wounded more than 90 others.

Card Tips:Cyber Dragon
87,634pages on
this wiki
this wiki
- This card can be searched by "Dogu", "Single Purchase", "Temple of the Kings", "Transmodify", "Chaos Zone", "Machina Armored Unit", "Cyber Dragon Core", "Cyber Repair Plant", "Fusion Conscription" and "Fusion Reserve".
- Due to its effect, this card can be used as Tribute fodder in any Deck, most commonly in "Monarch" & Synchro Decks.
- If you already control a "Cyber Dragon", "Dimensionhole" can allow you to Special Summon another one from your hand.
- Now that this card is Unlimited again, you can now easily Fusion Summon "Cyber End Dragon" or "Cyber Twin Dragon", however, there are still other alternatives on how to do this such as:
- Use "Proto-Cyber Dragon", "Cyber Dragon Core" or "Cyber Dragon Drei".
- "Elemental HERO Prisma" ("Cyber Dragon" must be in your Deck, then use a card such as "Call of the Haunted" to Special Summon it back to the field).
- "Cyber Dragon Zwei" (by revealing a Spell card from your hand).
- Use this card with a Level 3 Tuner monster to easily Summon a level 8 Synchro Monster.
- Special Summoning this card and following with a Level 3 Tuner can easily Synchro Summon "Avenging Knight Parshath" or "Stardust Dragon".
- You can also use a Level 4 Tuner with this to Synchro Summon "Giganticastle" or "Cloudcastle".
- You can use this card with "Honest".
- If your opponent controls no monsters so you cannot use this card's effect use "Foolish Revival" to easily Special Summon this card.
- Alternatively Normal Summon a monster from your hand and use "Shien's Spy". This also works if your opponent doesn't have monsters in their Graveyard.
- If the monster that was Normal Summoned was a Machine-Type, you can use it to help Special Summon "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon".
- Alternatively Normal Summon a monster from your hand and use "Shien's Spy". This also works if your opponent doesn't have monsters in their Graveyard.
- Use this card with "Nitro Synchron" to easily summon "Nitro Warrior".
- If your opponent Summons a monster on his first turn, you could Summon this monster easily and then tribute it for "Great Maju Garzett", which would have an ATK of 4200.
- With three "Proto-Cyber Dragons" on the field, equip this card with "Chthonian Alliance" for a boost of 2400. And with three "Cyber Dragon Zweis" in the grave, equip this card with "Phalanx Pike" for a 2700 boost for a total ATK of 7200. Double its original ATK with "Limiter Removal" for an OTK.
- With the release of "Drei" and "Core" this card can gain as much as 5400 additional ATK using "Phalanx Pike" resulting in "Cyber Dragon's" ATK being as high as 10200 with "Phalanx Pike" alone, easily enough for an OTK.
- You can use your opponent's "Cyber Dragon" to summon "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon".
- Use "DNA Surgery" to pull out "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon" easier while clearing your opponent's field for attacks
- Use "Light of Intervention" to prevent your opponent from setting monsters and keeping them face-up to use them as Fusion Material Monsters.
- Consider using "Level Eater" on "Cyber Dragon" to gain another 1000 Attack.
- This card combos pretty well with "Pole Position".
- Due to its ability to Special Summon itself, "Cyber Dragon" is very good at using Union Monsters. Some helpful monsters to connect are "Oilman", for extra draw power, "Trigon", to summon more monsters (like "Cyber Dragon Zwei"), "Armored Cybern" for "Cyber Dragon support" or "Heavy Mech Support Platform" for extra power to beat monsters like "Stardust Dragon". The layer of destruction defense is helpful, too.
- This card is extremely effective against Wind-Up Decks, seeing as their "Wind-Up Carrier Zenmaity" and "Wind-Up Zenmaines" are Machine-Types, allowing you to "steal" their monsters to make "Chimeratech Fortress Dragon" and probably OTK them. Note that most other "Wind-Up" monsters are not Machine-Type, such as "Wind-Up Rat", "Wind-Up Shark", etc.

Sea Remington Biblical Zodiac Sign and Sea Remington Twelve Disciples
Sea Remington
Sea Remington's Biblical Horoscope
About Biblical Horoscope
Biblical Astrology throughout the Christian bible, the number twelve 12 is a prominent number. The twelve 12 tribes of Israel, twelve 12 Disciples of Christ, twelve 12 songs of Jabob, and the foundation of heaven or the new Jerusalem in twelve 12 layers of precious stones. Astrology has the constellation of heavens, twelve 12 zodiac signs, as well as twelve 12 houses to a chart or horoscope. Astrologers have taken the disciples of the Messiah and associated each of them with a zodiac sign. It was very important to have twelve 12 apostle. After the demise of Judas, he was replaced quickly as to say without twelve 12 disciples the group would not be whole. The Biblical Astrology signs include the following, Aries Peter, Taurus Simon, Gemini James, Cancer Andrew, Leon John, Virgo Philip, Libra Nathaniel, Scorpio Thomas, Sagittarius James, Capricorn Matthew, Aquarius Thaddeus, and Pisces Judas.
Symbol Meaning
Judas was born under the sign of Pisces. These people a easily depressed and often give up undertaken plans. This sign is known to wonder off from the real world, to become really closed in on itself. Jesus said on the last supper that one of the students will betray him, but who will it be exactly, he did not mentioned. For thirty silver pieces Judas had given up Jesus to the guards of Jerusalem. Often people of this sign do not admit the faults that they did, even if the evidence points directly to them.

Alan Marshall, one of Florida States distinguished and world-renowned researchers, has been elected to the Academy of Arts and Sciences Class of 2013. Marshall joins 197 other fellows and foreign honorary members since the Academys founding 230 years ago.
Marshall is director of the Universitys Ion Cyclotron Resonance Program at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. According to a Florida State press release, he is renowned for his research and co-inventing and developing Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry, a revolutionary chemical analysis technique.
Alan Marshall is one of the nations leading analytical chemists, whose research has a broad impact, from pure chemistry to biomedicine to analyzing the properties and composition of petroleum, said Tim Logan, chair of Florida States Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in the press release. He is very deserving of this award, which recognizes national leaders in all fields of science, the arts and humanities. We are extremely fortunate to have a scientist of the caliber of Alan Marshall at Florida State University.
According to the Academys website, they have been honoring excellence and providing service to the nation and the world. Through independent, nonpartisan study, its ranks of distinguished scholar-patriots have brought the arts and sciences into constructive interplay with the leaders of both the public and private sectors.
Their website states the Academy of Arts and Sciences was founded during the American Revolution by John Adams, James Bowdoin, John Hancock, and others who contributed to the establishment of this nation, its government, and its constitution.
The purpose of the Academy then was to provide a forum for a group for scholars, individuals of learned professions, and government leaders to work together on behalf of the interests of the republic.
In the words of the Academys charter, enacted in 1780, the end and design of the institution is [...] to cultivate every art and science which may tend to advance the interest, honour, dignity, and happiness of a free, independent, and virtuous people, the Academys website states.
Today, the academy has two functions to elect to membership men and women of exceptional achievement, drawn from science, scholarship, business, public affairs, and the arts, and to conduct a varied program of projects and studies responsive to the needs and problems of society.
The Academy now holds 4,600 fellows, and 600 foreign honorary members which include 250 Nobel Prize laureates and 60 Pulitzer Prize winners.
It is indeed humbling to join a fellowship that started with George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin and whose current chemist members include several of my own mentors, Marshall said in the press release. I gratefully acknowledge the contributions of my 150 present and former research group members for their creative and penetrating advances in both instrumental techniques and applications ranging from petroleum to proteins. What keeps us going is the desire to see whats around the next scientific corner.
Marshall joined FSUs Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in 1993 after earning his doctorate from Stanford University and is no stranger to receiving prestigious awards.
As stated in the press release, at Florida State, Marshall holds the titles of Robert O. Lawton Distinguished Professor, Kasha Professor of Chemistry and Distinguished Research Professor. In addition, he is a fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
In 2012, Marshall received the William H. Nichols Medal from the New York Section of the American Chemical Societysixteen previous winners of the Nichols medal have gone on to win the Nobel Prize. Also stated in the press release, in 2009, Marshall was named a member of the American Chemical Societys first group of fellows, the only person in Florida to receive the distinction. Before that, among many honors, Marshall received the 2008 Ralph and Helen Oesper Award from the Cincinnati section of the ACS and the 2007 Chemical Pioneer Award from the American Institute of Chemists.
Marshall can now add his election to the Academy of Arts and Sciences to his long list of achievements and will be inducted on October 12 of this year in Cambridge, Mass.

In a jam-packed rooftop bar at the Clevelander hotel Friday evening, burly bitcoin miners, libertarian-minded techies and bright-eyed startup founders downed tequila and vodka late into the Miami night amid the thumping beats of a DJ.
The revelers were in a festive mood. And why not? They had gathered for a weekend conference at the Miami Beach Convention Center to discuss the latest developments in crypto currencies.
Coming off a remarkable year in which interest in the digital currency surged along with its price, the Miami event seemed as much a let-your-hair-down celebration as a talkfest. This was a crowd confident that their nascent, disruptive industry's moment had come. They believed fervently that they were part of a revolution to transform the global financial system. What's more, many of them had just become fabulously wealthy.
Miami provided the ideal setting for a bitcoin coming-of-age party. Members of the city's bitcoin community had been talking it up as a potential hub for digital-currency remittance transfers to Latin America.
Payment processor Bitpay had set up the Clevelander and other Miami Beach businesses to allow attendees to pay for their rooms, drinks, burgers, car rides and other South Beach services in the same fashion. It was all part of what CEO Tony Gallippi described as his attempt to "organize a self-contained bitcoin economy around the conference."
Organizers had predicted a turnout of around 500 early last week. By the end of Friday, 1,200 had signed up.
The audience, comprised almost entirely of bitcoin true-believers, reveled Saturday in bold 2014 predictions from the who's who of the crypto-currency world. They heard Matthew Roszak, a co-founder of Silk Road Equity (unaffiliated with the now defunct illicit drug-trading site of the same name) forecast that the amount of venture capital funds dedicated to the industry would rise from $100 million to $500 million as venture capitalists had their "wake-up-and-smell-the-bitcoin moment." They were wowed by lofty talk about "Bitcoin 2.0," a revolutionary future of peer-to-peer transactions, without meddling middlemen, in everything from gambling and real estate purchases to Internet services and stock issuance. And they cheered heartily when Roger Ver, a serial investor in bitcoin projects known affectionately as "Bitcoin Jesus" for his habit of making large, bitcoin-based charitable donations, declared that bitcoin is a "lever with which to move the world in a more peaceful direction."
Not every speaker painted a clear-skies picture, however. On Sunday, a panel of lawyers urged the bitcoin community to work hard to remove the negative connotations associated with the FBI's recent seizure of bitcoin held by the Silk Road illicit drug-trading site. (It hasn't helped that on Monday Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara announced the arrest of two men, including prominent bitcoin entrepreneur Charlie Shrem, on charges of assisting Silk Road customers launder money through bitcoin exchanges.)
And in less serious ways, the conference offered other reminders that bitcoin is still a very new new thing – with all the challenges that go along with that.
Overwhelmed by the turnout, organizers had to make do with hand-written badges when the printed ones ran out. No sit-down lunch was provided, so attendees purchased pre-made sandwiches and salads from the center's café and sat on the floor to eat. A room that was intended for the press contingent was double-booked by a team of documentary filmmakers, which meant a planned press conference by one Bitcoin 2.0 startup was cancelled.
But Moe Levin, an Amsterdam-based event organizer, says such organizational challenges were "a great problem to have."
"As things grow in the bitcoin community, there is an incredible amount of work put on by a very few select people," he said gesturing at promoters' booths staffed by the same programmers who are building a proliferation of bitcoin-connected products. "Projects that would or should take teams of thousands are being done by ten developers all day every day. The same holds true for a bitcoin conference.
"The global community is becoming really united," he said. "And, like the price gain, it's happening much faster than people could imagine."

|I wonder how much the self-embargo was merely a stating of the obvious - similar to me saying 'I wont be playing quarterback for the Colts this year'.
As Sherman said just after SC seceded:
'The North can make a steam engine, locomotive or railway car.
Hardly a yard of cloth or pair of shoes can you make.
You are rushing into war with one of the most powerful, ingeniously mechanical and determined people on earth - right at your doorstep.
You are bound to fail.
Only in your spirit and determination are you prepared for war. In all else you are totally unprepared.'

TOWSON, MD. (August 10, 2011) Warden Robert Koppel recently announced the Employees of the Month for the Maryland Correctional Adjustment Center (MCAC) for June, 2011. The warden chooses one officer from each shift as well as a non-custody staff member:
Corporal Paul Deya of the 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. shift completes his assigned tasks in a timely fashion without complaint. He is an asset to MCAC, as he is driven to finish any task no matter how big or small. Always punctual and a fast learner, Corporal Deya take his job seriously and enjoys discovering new skills.
Sergeant Joseph Thornton is the lead Sergeant on the 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. shift in the Segregation Unit. On a daily basis he deals with detainee issues while working to ensure the unit runs smoothly. Sergeant Thornton has thirteen years with the Division of Correction (DOC). His outstanding ability and dedication to adapt to almost any situation makes him as asset to the DOC.
Corporal Ernest Brown of the 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. shift functions at a level beyond his grade. Corporal Brown performs his duties with a positive attitude. He is exceptionally punctual and without question is capable of taking the lead in a housing unit.
Michael Carroll, a Correctional Maintenance Officer, is an exceptional worker who will go above and beyond to help. Mr. Carroll has been an asset to the reconditioning of MCAC as its mission shifted to housing federal detainees. He is always on time and prepared for the days work. Mr. Carroll puts forth knowledge and creative thinking into any project he approaches.
The Maryland Correctional Adjustment Center opened in 1988. Last year MCAC became part of an official partnership between the Division of Correction and the U.S. Marshals Service. The facility now houses only federal detainees for the Baltimore region.

The Ad Men Behind Occupy George, Occupy Wall Street Infographics Printed On Dollar Bills
By making the facts simple to understand—and putting them in a rather prominent, poignant place—two creatives offer their skills to fight wealth disparity.
As the Occupy Wall Street protests gain steam, their message is being broadcast to more people, via news stories, social media, and word of mouth. Yet it's still been something of a slow process. But, as the protests occupy more and more physical space, two ad creatives have found a way to occupy a more metaphorical realm, and potentially spread the message of wealth disparity much farther: They're occupying U.S. currency.
Occupy George is a series of five stamps that place an infographic about earnings disparities and how wealth is distributed in America directly on the most famous symbol of wealth itself. The project has been pulling all-nighters for about a week, printing on more $1 bills, and then exchanging them at Occupy Wall Street protests, getting more bills to modify each time.
"We feel like just the hard solid facts on the economic disparity in America speak for themselves so brilliantly," says "Ivan," one of the minds behind the project. "We feel like it would be really tough to not be moved to take action or support the movement if you were confronted with them."
"Ivan," created Occupy George with his partner "Andy." Both men who work in advertising but sometimes turn to creative projects that serve the public good as an antidote to spending all day toiling for corporate America. They've consulted legal experts and are sure that defacing bills is 100% legal (as long as you don't mess with the serial numbers or the denominations of the bills themselves), but they still prefer to remain anonymous. They've worked on other culture jamming projects in the past, like the Deprofiler, a generic white-person mask that Arizona Hispanics could wear to protect themselves from the state's law allowing the police to search suspected illegal immigrants.
The infographics they've come up with to move people to action show various damning stats about how the 1% wealthiest Americans are hoarding wealth. The ones above illustrate how much money the richest 400 Americans have in comparison to the rest of us; how much of the income growth in the country is concentrated in the wealthiest 1%; and the difference between average worker pay and average CEO pay (it's a lot). There are other bills on the site—five in total—as well as some bills stamped with the missive "Soon to belong to the 1%." You can also download the templates so that you can print the graphics on bills near you, or even buy the stamps. Consider George occupied.

Please learn how to read a statute before you quote a statute. A person who defaces, etc. "with intent to render such bank bill . . . unfit to be reissued" will be punished. The first statutory requirement is that the bill has to be unfit to be reissued. The second statutory requirement is that the person had to have intent to make the bill unfit to be reissued. Writing on a bill doesn't make a bill unfit to be reissued; therefore, these guys have not fulfilled the first requirement. And even if it did, these people actually intended the bills TO be reissued and circulated. Therefore, they haven't violated either of the necessary provisions to suffer any consequence under the code.
@Joseph Moore - Didn't Susan B. Anthony break the law in 1872 when she voted?
@Joseph Moore - Didn't Rosa Parks break the law when she refused to sit in the back of the bus?
@Joseph Moore - Wasn't dumping tea into the Boston Harbor also breaking the law?
@Chaseme: they sure do... its called fractional reserve banking.
no- Joseph has a good point. The creators of this movement must have thought of it, but nowhere do they let us know that we, by using their templates on real u.s. currency are also not breaking the law. The lack of info on the legality of it (is this somehow exempt from the code Joseph cited?) is what is keeping me from participating.
The richest 1% know how to make that $1 into $100.
Cool concept otherwise.
I'm pretty sure those dollar bills will be able to be re-issused (ie buy a copy of FastCompany)
Joseph is a douche bag
Love this!
Very similar though to a conceptual artists' work from 2007:
And 2009:
Joseph, maybe you should read the article before you condemn it. Also, this is more of an awareness campaign then a call-to-action. Nowhere in the article does fastcompany tell us to start defacing our money, or give us directions on how it is done.
Awesome Joseph Moore - lets be redundant and post the US code that these guys (and their lawyers) have likely already read and interpreted.
I think you should probably calm down. This is an interesting way to think about the message and there's a real good chance it won't cost you a dime in the long run.
Awesome Fast company - lets advocate for people breaking federal law....
United States Code TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 17 - COINS AND CURRENCY§ 333. Mutilation of national bank obligations Whoever mutilates, cuts, defaces, disfigures, or perforates, orunites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill,draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national bankingassociation, or Federal Reserve bank, or the Federal Reserve System,with intent to render such bank bill, draft, note, or other evidenceof debt unfit to be reissued, shall be fined under this title orimprisoned not more than six months, or both.In the long run, this is just going to cost us, taxpayers, more money. Thanks a bunch you assholes.

Temperance — Ann Arbor Huron football coach Craig Jobe made a homecoming to Monroe County Friday night, but Bedford's football team rained on any chance of him leaving his home area with a victory.
Under heavy rainfall, Bedford depended on a strong running game and overpowering defense for a 44-0 shutout victory over Ann Arbor Huron.
Even while being on the opposite end of the shutout, Jobe was pleased to return to Monroe County.
Bedford's defense provided their offense with excellent field position, setting up fast-paced scoring drives on the ground. The offense accounted for 106 total yards, all from rushes.
Senior defensive lineman Rudy Rivas recovered two fumbles, one on a punt attempt, the other a mishandled snap, in the second-half for Bedford.
Defensive end Jeremiah Harris sacked Ann Arbor Huron's quarterback on the first drive of the game. The senior wasn't satisfied with just one, finding the quarterback in the backfield two more times before halftime.
Wood was pleased with his entire team's defensive efforts, especially Harris'.
Seniors Brad Boss and Alec Hullibarger led Bedford's offensive attack. Boss carried the ball five times for 70 yards, including a 42 yard touchdown run. Hullibarger had 6 carries for 35 yards and 3 touchdowns for three yards or fewer.
Junior fullback Christian Ormsby and senior running back Devon Woolford each added one rushing touchdown for Bedford.
Both coaches enjoyed Jobe's homecoming.

Rumor: Pegatron squeezed by Apple on ASUS Zenbook production
updated 07:45 am EST, Mon February 13, 2012
Pegatron maybe pressed to choose Apple vs ASUS
A tentative rumor has had Pegatron allegedly forced to choose between manufacturing ASUS' Zenbooks and Apple's iOS devices. Taiwan's Commercial Times had heard that Apple was supposedly unhappy with the similarity to the MacBook Air and didn't want one of its own contractors to be making what was perceived to be a clone. If it happened, production wouldn't stop until at least March and would be outsourced to a nearby contractor like Compal or Wistron.
Pegatron is a known iPhone manufacturer and helps shoulder some of the load from Foxconn. It's believed to be courting iPad production and, it's implied, may have had to concentrate its focus as a precondition to winning orders.
Such a claim is a contentious one and would fly in the face of Pegatron's own history. The contractor used to be ASUS' official manufacturing wing and, although it was spun out, has still regularly been picked by its former parent company to produce devices. Having to give up what's considered one of ASUS' core products would be a more difficult choice than for most.
If the switch is happening at all, it could also have more benign motivating factors. Pegatron has much more limited production capacity than Foxconn and may have simply decided that iPhone and iPad production in the available space was more lucrative. ASUS is known to have shipped just a few hundred thousand Zenbooks in the fall where Apple moved 37 million iPhones and 15.4 million iPads, which even for a smaller company like Pegatron still means millions of orders.
Pegatron has been reached for comment, but hadn't had an opportunity to respond as of Monday morning.

Moldova ended their 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ qualifying campaign on a winning note in Group H with a 5-2 victory in Montenegro.
The hosts had seen their hopes of reaching Brazil dashed by defeat against England on Friday, and they could not rouse themselves.
Moldova took the lead in the 28th minute, Alexandr Antoniuc tucking home after Savo Pavicevic had blocked Vitali Bordiyan's shot.
Montenegro pulled level 11 minutes after half-time from the penalty spot after Vladimir Bozovic had been fouled by Victor Golovatenco.
Stevan Jovetic netted from 12 yards but it took Moldova only six minutes to restore their lead as Igor Armas volleyed in.
And two minutes later they had a third, Eugen Sidorenco finding the top corner from 20 yards.
Artur Ionita took aim from even further out in the 73rd minute, and Antoniuc made it 5-1 in the 89th minute before Jovetic grabbed his second in injury time.

If you're watching your portion sizes of various foods at mealtimes, it can be tedious to use measuring cups. Here's a trick that's often used in cafeterias and professional kitchens: use an ice cream scoop with a retractable food release mechanism. They come in various sizes and make it easy to measure out a half cup serving or a tablespoon portion as long as you know how much the 'bowl' of the scoop contains (I've marked mine with permanent marker.) Quick, easy, and foolproof.
If you are an ice-cream-a-holic like I am, 76468, but you can't control yourself with a carton of ice cream - try this product! It's yummy because it's normal ice cream - not "dietetic" and it's PORTION CONTROLLED! Perfect for me since I cannot manage to dish myself a "normal" portion of ice cream. With these delicious treats, I eat just one and voila - my ice cream fix is satisfied!! 244
I love to bake, so a few years ago I bought a 1-oz cookie dough scoop to make baking cookies easier. Now I use it for ice cream portion control. A half-cup serving is 4 scoops so the kids and I feel like we're really indulging when we're actually exercising moderation!
An Ice cream scoop doesn't need to JUST be used on ice cream! It's a great way to portion control things like: Mashed potatoes, mac-n-cheese, even desserts!

City installs new park signs
December 7, 2009
By Tim Pfarr
During the course of a few rainy November days, workers from the sign and display company Trade Marx installed 41 new signs across five of the city's parks: Lake Boren Park, Donegal Park, Windtree Park, China Creek Park and Highlands Park.The company replaced all Lake Boren's old signs and installed tennis court rules signs that had not been present. More than a dozen signs were installed in Lake Boren Park.
It also replaced China Creek Park and Highlands Park's old signs, and it added additional signs that had not been present to both parks as well. Donegal Park and Windtree Park previously had no signs, and the company installed new signs in both parks.
The Parks Commission established the priority of what parks received signs.
In addition to entrance signs, the company installed trail signs, park rules signs, wetlands signs, wetlands rules signs, playground rules signs, restroom signs and signs displaying schedules of parks facilities — such as shelters — that may be reserved.
The city contracted with NBBJ, an architecture and design firm, to design the signs.
Altogether, the city has spent about $38,000 on the parks signs in 2009, and that money funded both the design of the signs, the installation of the signs and staff costs associated with the project.
Director of Finance Christine Olson said the amount of money spent on parks signs in 2009 could increase to about $48,000 by the end of the year.
The money for the project came from the parks fund.
Parks Program Manager Michael Holly said he likes the new look the signs bring to the city.
"I think that they really give that visual impact that we're trying to identify the assets in Newcastle with," he said.

I wonder if Michael Holly has a 5 foot tall, neon green reflective sign in his front yard? 5 of my neighbors do. Does he want one? When I moved to my home in Windtree 9 years ago, I chose the neighborhood because of the woodsy, nature-filled environment. The "visual impact" I want is nature. NOT neon green billboards.

HOORAY! The city just took down the neighborhood 5 foot tall directional signs to Windtree Park!
I hope they don't feel a need to purchase more signs to replace them.

My sentiments exactly – as to both of Gretchen Paletta's comments. YOU SAID IT RIGHT!
I didn't go to city hall to speak out; I have too many planes in the air to do that. I just would have expected the city to have better sense than that. I would invite anyone to inspect VERY closely those signs, and consider whether all that was necessary – the size, the raised lettering, the leaves on the turned over corner, the reflectorization. It was interesting to see how reflectorized the signs are; after dusk, you see VERY VERY clearly the directions to the park at which the rules say is closed at dusk. Hmmm.
Now that the city chose to "brand" the street signs with that silly color, instead of using street sign colors that are standard across the nation, maybe they will reflectorize the street signs like the park signs so that those low contrast colors can be read at night.
I liked the old insignia. It had some character. Now we have a plain simple "N". I won't comment on what I think the N means.

I can't believe the city continue to more of these 'impossible to read in dim light' signs. Who ever come up and those who approved this poor color and contract scheme should be fired.
The old signs we had were perfectly fine!
Got something to say?

I'm researching image transcoding (for example, convert a .gif image to .jpg, or vice-versa).
I heard about JAI (Java Advanced Imaging), but JAI doesn't support transcoding from jpeg to gif.
worse than: JAI doesn't support controlling the transcoded image bit-depth and dimensions.
Does someone here know a good way to transcode images in Java?
