LIBRA - The Lame One (September 23 to October 22)
Nice to everyone they meet. Their love is one of a kind
Silly, funny and sweet. Have own unique appeal. Most caring person you will ever meet!
However, not the kind of person you want to mess with... you might end up crying
Libras can cause as much havoc as they can prevent. Faithful friends to the end
Can hold a grudge for years. Libras are someone you want on your side
"I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge
It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason
It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of
insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom"
― Edgar Allan Poe ―
I Like:
Bacon, spider, bats, cats, playing cards, reapers, jesters
fluffy fuzzies, black and white, rainbows, bones
I Dislike:
Blood, guts, gore, dark blue and purple, dark blue and dark green
I loves mah hubby~
See how much he loves me~ lol
{{i am}} nothing ~and~ everything [[to you]]
"you tell me i'm everything and i feel like nothing.. where do we.. where can we meet in the middle?"

White Coat Ceremony for Temple's Class of 2017
August 19, 2013
CONTACT: Giselle Zayon firstname.lastname@example.com
Each year, new medical students at Temple University School of Medicine gather for a White Coat Ceremony, during which faculty members cloak them in the crisp white coats that symbolize official entry into the medical profession and commitment to patient care.
This year's event, held on August 9, welcomed 215 medical students. It featured a welcome from Larry R. Kaiser, MD, FACS, Senior Executive Vice President for Health Sciences, Dean of Temple University School of Medicine and Chief Executive Officer of Temple University Health System—followed by a keynote by Amy J. Goldberg, MD, FACS, Professor of Surgery. Dr. Goldberg also serves as director of the General Surgery Residency Program at the School of Medicine and Chief of Trauma and Surgical Critical Care at Temple University Hospital.
Following the addresses and coating, students and faculty recited the Oath of Geneva – the declaration adopted by the General Assembly of the World Medical Association at Geneva in 1948, an affirmation of physicians' dedication to the humanitarian goals of medicine.
"As Dean Kaiser noted, medical school begins an adventure of life-long learning," said Derek Escalante, a newly coated member of the Class of 2017.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Live from the Capitol, Sonia Sotomayor's confirmation hearings promise high political theater this week, beamed to the world in dramatic, historic, perhaps comedic glory.
When the curtain rises Monday on Sotomayor's nomination to become the Supreme Court's first Hispanic justice, a large cast of ambitious players will be ready to explore themes from racial conflict to legal controversy, as well as personal facts and views.
If this is a show, top billing must go to Sotomayor herself, the federal appeals court judge who grew up in a New York housing project where her parents had moved from Puerto Rico. But with camera-loving politicians in charge, the Senate Judiciary Committee drama won't be just about her.
This is about them, too.
Two lawmakers, a Vermont liberal and an Alabama conservative, will have leading roles. Backing them is a supporting cast that will include the Defenders, the Skeptic, the Patriarch, the Doyenne, the Wild Card and the Novice.
Visually, they'll be grouped like this: Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy and Sotomayor at center stage facing each other. Eleven other Senate Democrats - nine white men, two white women - will sit to the audience's right, eager to help Sotomayor defend herself against any conservative charges. Their mandate: do no harm to her overwhelming prospects for taking over retired Justice David Souter's seat on the nine-member court.
On the audience's left - but to the right on your scorecard - will be seven white male Republican senators with a delicate task: respectfully challenging the Latina nominee - on crutches, recovering from a broken ankle - without alienating women or Hispanics.
And try to do it while facing two visible reminders of the GOP's rout in the 2008 elections.
Seated at the end of the Democratic side will be Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, until this year a Republican, and Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., the former TV comedian making his Senate debut. He just emerged as the victor in an eight-month recount battle against Republican incumbent Norm Coleman.
A viewer's guide to the faces certain to nab key screen time during the Sotomayor's made-for-TV hearings.
Chairman Leahy, D-Vt.
If he looks familiar, it could be because he's been in the Senate for more than three decades and participated in hearings of every Supreme Court nominee since now-retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Or it could be the Batman movies. With white hair and bifocals, the man with the gavel has had cameos in all of them, and a speaking part in "The Dark Knight."
Leahy, 69, will be in charge of keeping senators to their allotted 30 minutes for questions, tamping down the inevitable showboating and issuing stern warnings to any protesters who get out of hand.
It's good to be chairman, by the way: He can allot himself all the time he wants to rebut points Republicans try to make or to ask clarifying questions of the nominee. Leahy was a state prosecutor for eight years before coming to the Senate. The grandfather of five is an avid photographer seen at previous hearings snapping pictures of news photographers as they snap photos of him.
Ranking Republican Jeff Sessions of Alabama.
Taking his first turn as the lead Republican at a Supreme Court hearing, the 62-year-old Sessions will sit next to Leahy and, in broad terms, try to reassure the vanquished GOP base that their interests are being represented in this most visible forum.
Sessions wants to know whether Sotomayor allows personal views,
not just the law, to influence her rulings. He has raised doubts about her support for the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. But he's had trouble rallying opposition to Sotomayor's confirmation and early on he ruled out trying to block it with a filibuster.
Personally and politically, he's got big shoes to fill and a delicate line to walk in this role. Sessions is succeeding the sharp-tongued Specter, chairman at the previous two Supreme Court hearings.
Sessions, in his third term, has plenty of experience grilling witnesses; he's a former federal prosecutor. But he has stumbled over issues of race. Comments he allegedly made sank his own nomination by President Ronald Reagan to be a federal judge.

"The collection includes print materials and access to two online databases," said Information Services Librarian Eric Speas. "These resources are available to anyone in the general public who is searching for grant funding, whether it is for a religious organization, a community group, students, artists or researchers."
Established in 1956, the Foundation Center is the nation's leading authority on organized philanthropy, serving grant seekers, grant makers, researchers, policymakers, the media and the general public. The public is served through the center's five regional learning centers and the national network of Cooperating Collections.

Click here to view our 2012 Annual Report to the Community
On behalf of our Board of Trustees and the entire staff at Orange City Area Health System, I am pleased to present our 2012 Report to the Community. We are so blessed to have a loyal and growing patient base supported by not only a wonderful staff but our 200 volunteers as well. To all of you, we say a heartfelt "thanks!" Over six years ago we were fortunate to open our new health campus. After numerous design awards over the years after opening, we were again pleased this year to be named Number 8 in Soliant Health's Top 20 Most Beautiful Hospitals in the United States. While it is nice to be recognized this way, we are again reminded that it's our people – not the "brick and mortar" – that truly makes a difference. Others may be able to imitate our design, but few can meet the quality, compassion, and concern that our staff and volunteers offer. This concept, not the building, is what we care about and commit our focus to. Hopefully, this is a clear difference observed by our patients and the communities we serve. Thanks again for another great year!

I don't "feel" that he doesn't love her, he told me for years he doesn't and he told her he doesn't. She told me he told her he doesn't love her. She rants and raves, calls me names, calls him names, but then says she wants to stay with him and where did they go wrong?
There is a strong sense of Catholic guilt in play here, she is wanting to stay together for family and honoring the wedding vows. He suffers from panic attacks and he was feeling pressured to meet the deadlines from the filing of the divorce papers, etc and told me everything was just closing in on him. He told me he needed to get over this hurdle so he could get back to us, he missed us, but then he turns around the next day and talks with her and calls me and says he feels it's the right thing to do to see if their relationship or close it but without me in the picture. I asked him who is he going to make happy doing this and he said, his mother, his kids and probably her (wife).
He has been struggling with his guilt, his not wanting to be the bad person, his not wanting the divorce to be about our relationship and his deserving to be happy. He is the type that sacrifices/martyrs himself. Finances are a big issue with him and he would call me and say "tell me I'm going to be okay", etc.
We were househunting, talking about moving in together, planning the future. Then he says all of this closing in has made everything muddy.
I haven't hurt this much in a long time and even though I deserve someone who would never have treated me this way, it still hurts. I've been told that he is "damaged" and I've dodged a bullet as I took on a caretaking role and would have that the rest of my life. But I'm having trouble going from constant contact with him to none and am wondering how he can do this as he relied on me for a lot?
Thanks. I do think you are correct in that he is conflicted as I've watched it for years. But I don't think he will reach out to get me back in his life. He knows that neither she or I will tolerate a relationship that involves us both and it will be safer for him to stay in the marriage--as he said his doing so will make his mother happy, his kids (all grown and out of the home) happy and probably his wife.
I know he won't be happy staying in the marriage, I know they never had and will never have what he and I had, but I don't quite understand how he can just give himself up like that. Or me! :-)
I'm getting a handle on my emotions but still am struggling--he is weak and did not put me first, he was always first, and I know I don't want to share my life with someone like that, but I'm still experiencing the loss of this relationship.
Of course I don't know how they can overcome an intensive 11 year affair, where in effect he was living two lives. How does that work?

Brent Celek was involved in an early-morning car crash Thursday, but according to the Cherry Hill (N.J.) Courier Post, the Eagles tight end was uninjured.
The accident occurred at 2:30 a.m. on an highway exit ramp near the team's stadium in south Philadelphia. Police said the driver of the vehicle was driving too fast and spun out of control before smacking a concrete barrier with Celek as a passenger. The driver was giving a field sobriety test and supposedly failed. The driver has been charged with DUI.
The driver also was uninjured.
"The team is aware of the accident and has been in contact with Brent," the team said in a statement e-mailed to CBSSports.com. "Thankfully, no one involved in the accident was injured and, to our knowledge, Brent is not facing any legal charges."

50g/2oz butter
1 spring cabbage, core removed, leaves finely shredded
1 leek, trimmed, finely shredded
125ml/4½fl oz fish stock
110ml/4fl oz double cream
salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 floury potatoes, such as King Edward or Maris Piper, peeled, cut into wedges
vegetable oil, for deep frying
50g/2oz butter
1 leek, trimmed, sliced
2 celery stalks, trimmed, sliced
2 shallots, peeled, chopped
2 bay leaves
small bunch fresh thyme
375ml/13fl oz white wine
2kg/4lb 4oz mussels, cleaned and de-bearded (discard any mussels that do not close tightly when tapped firmly)
handful flatleaf parsley leaves, chopped
pinch celery salt, preferably from Anglesey
grapeseed oil, for deep frying
180g/6½oz (1 American cup) cornmeal
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground fennel seeds
pinch spiced sea salt
12 oysters, shucked, patted dry with kitchen paper
2 free-range eggs
splash milk
1 lemon, cut into wedges, to serve
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
For the sea bass, wash the sea bass and pat dry with kitchen paper. Stuff the fish with the crushed garlic and lemon slices.
Pour a third of the sea salt into a large glass or ceramic baking dish to cover the bottom. Place the stuffed sea bass on top of the layer of salt, then cover them with the remaining salt. Sprinkle the top of the salt covering with a little cold water and press the salt down to compress.
Transfer the fish to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes.
Remove the baked fish from the oven and set aside to cool slightly. Gently remove the salt crust, removing the last specks of salt from the fish skin using a pastry brush.
Meanwhile, for the cabbage, heat the butter in a large pan over a medium heat. When the butter is foaming, add the shredded cabbage and leeks and fry for 3-4 minutes, or until wilted.
Add the fish stock and cream and continue to cook for a further 5-6 minutes, or until the volume of liquid has reduced and thickened slightly. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Meanwhile, for the chips, heat the vegetable oil in a deep-fat fryer to 130C. Alternatively, heat the vegetable oil in a pan over a medium to high heat until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns golden-brown when dropped into it. (CAUTION: Hot oil is dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
Carefully lower the potato wedges into the hot oil in batches. Deep fry for 8-9 minutes. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batches of potato wedges.
Increase the temperature of the oil to 180-190C. Return the potato wedges to the hot oil, in batches, and cook for a further 4-5 minutes, or until crisp and golden-brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batches of potato wedges.
For the mussels with leeks, heat the butter in a pan over a medium heat, add the leeks, celery and shallots and fry for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the bay leaves and thyme and continue to fry for a further 1-2 minutes.
Pour in the white wine and add the mussels, then cover the pan with a lid and bring to the boil. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the mussels have opened (discard any mussels that have not opened during cooking).
Stir in the parsley and celery salt and heat through.
Meanwhile, for the corn-crusted oysters, heat the grapeseed oil in a small pan over a medium to high heat until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns golden-brown when dropped into it. (CAUTION: Hot oil is dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)
In a bowl, mix together the cornmeal, ground cumin, ground fennel seeds and spiced sea salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
Dip each oyster into the egg mixture, then dredge in the cornmeal mixture until completely coated.
Carefully lower the coated oysters into the hot oil in batches. Deep fry for one minute, or until the coating is crisp and golden-brown. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batches of oysters.
To serve, spoon the cabbage into the centre of four to six serving plates. Flake the sea bass into large pieces and place a portion on top of each serving of cabbage. Sprinkle with a pinch of vanilla salt. Arrange the cornmeal-crusted oysters and chips alongside. Spoon the mussels and leeks into small serving bowls alongside. Garnish with a wedge of lemon.

Security researchers have uncovered new malware targeting the Android operating system, which can enable hackers to take remote control of users' devices and install unapproved software on their phones without their consent.
According to Tim Wyatt, principal engineer at mobile security specialist Lookout, the new malware is a variant of the previously known Legacy Native, or LeNa.
Wyatt explained that LeNa only affects a small number of users.
"LeNa originally masqueraded as a legitimate application and attempted to trick a user into activating its malicious payload by invoking the SU utility, which is used by 'rooted' users to selectively grant superuser privileges to applications that request them."
He added that this requirement meant that only technically adept users were at risk of this infection.
However, the new variant uses an exploit known as "Gingerbreak", which enables root access on devices running the Gingerbread and Honeycomb versions of the Android operating system, and so does not depend on user interaction at all.
The good news for Android users is that it has yet to appear on the Android market, unlike previous malware infections such as DroidDream, but Wyatt stated on his blog that it is on some alternative markets.
Wyatt concluded with some advice for Android users to stay safe.

How much space do I need on my roof? Solarize Project
In Oregon, a good rule of thumb is that 1,000 watts of solar electric panels require about 100 square-feet of space and will typically produce 1,000-1,300 kWh of electricity each year. If you double or triple the size of the system, you will double or triple the amount of electricity it produces.

Outlaw 8.5 racing is nothing new, but now that the NMCA WEST series and the other west coast series are all incorporating the wild, tiny tire heads-up class, I'm expecting we'll see resurgence in this wicked 8th mile category. Think of Outlaw 8.5 as a "Mini-Outlaw 10.5," where instead of the 10.5W slick tire under your car, like in O/L, a 26 x 8.5-inch slick is required and being that this class is ran in an 8th mile format, it makes for some very exciting door-to-door battles between a wide variety of combinations. From stock suspension to four links, big to small-blocks, nitrous to superchargers, this class can cater to nearly any combination….as long as you have the balls to run on a tire that's only about 9-inches wide. The typical elapsed times for Outlaw 8.5 range anywhere from 5.80s to 5.20s, with the quicker racers like former NMRA stalwart Trace Meyer running 5-teens on a Mickey Thompson slick and there are even some rumors that a racer named Vern House actually broke into the 4-second zone with his IROC Camaro back in the day.
With the 2012 season starting, the unofficial title of "baddest dude on the smallest tire" is up for grabs right now, and with how close the racing is due to the limited traction and halved track, I'm looking forward to seeing who rises to the top by the end of the season. Potentially we could see three different Outlaw 8.5 champions on the west coast, WCHRA, PSCA and NMCA WEST. The quickest anyone has gone in competition so far in 2012 has been DJ Reid, who recently ran a string of 5.2X passes to take his first win and the PSCA season opener with his supercharged combination. Veteran nitrous racers like Mark Washington and Gary Brandt will be gunning for DJ this season, and with rumors of a wild turbocharged car coming out in '12, this class will be an exciting one to follow this season.
DJ Reid Outlaw 8.5 5.22 @ 141.74
Over the years I have compiled a whole bunch of pics of O8.5 rides, and for those that think the small rear tires just look silly, don't worry, the look grows on you – especially after you see how these cars perform. Check out some of the links below to see how these cars run and also be sure to check out the gallery I have posted at the end of this article.
If you have never seen these cars run, check out the link below from 2009.

In memory of Deming's first Emergency Medical Technician, you would be hard-pressed to find a Deming Firefighter/EMT who has not benefited from the Steve Bean Memorial Scholarship Fund.
Established by the Deming Fire Department and the Community Health Care Foundation, the scholarship is awarded annually to individuals who pursue a career in the medical fields. Nurses, doctors, EMTs and broader spectrum of health occupations have all been awarded the scholarship since it was founded and nurtured some 16 years ago.
Bean has the distinction of being the first certified EMT in Deming and Luna County. He was able to establish a close working relationship between the local hospital and the EMTs while training and teaching more EMTs until his death in 1995 from a heart attack at the age of 30.
"A lot of communities struggle for funding when it comes to student scholarships and especially for those pursuing careers in the medical fields," said Deming Fire Chief Edgar Davalos. Our community has made it possible for numerous firefighters, EMTs, nurses, and other medical professions to receive a little financial help that keeps them on a career path.
"It's people like Dr. (John) Lundy and the those involved in the Community Health Care Foundation that have kept the memory of Steve Bean alive and well."
The chief fundraiser for the Steve Bean Memorial Scholarship is a golf tournament that will be held at 9 a.m. on Saturday at the Rio Mimbres Golf Course. The format will be teams of four in a round-robin. Entry fee is $50 per player and last year's tournament drew 15 teams. The CHCF is seeking to surpass that team number and make it a full field for a fun day of golf.
Prizes will be awarded at the par 3s and there will be special competitions and prizes for the closest to the pin, longest drive and closest to the line. The entry fee also includes a lunch at the end of play.
The Steve Bean Memorial Scholarship was established in 1996. Bean was also a Deputy Medical Investigator, and in November of 1991, was recognized by New Mexico Region II of the Emergency Medical Services for contributions in promotion and development in the region's medical system. He was also honored by the Village of Columbus as "Firefighter of the Year" in 1993.
"When students apply for the scholarships I give them a briefing on who Steve was and what kind of man he was," Davalos said. "He taught me and I also benefited from the scholarship."

"Loved the quality of the card and the uniqueness of it. Several people commented on how delightfully different it was. Got these for one of the ones who liked it so well!"
"I purchased these so my daughter would have them to send out as thank you cards following her bridal shower. They were everything I expected and hoped for. The quality of the paper was excellent, the font was beautiful and delivery was quick. Thank you!"
"I loved that there were thank you cards that matched the invitation that I chose, however, I would have preferred to have a picture uploaded with it, and this particular invitation/thank you card set doesn't allow you to have a picture"
"I bought this for my mother in law, she´s a teacher and the design fit perfectly. These sets of 10 thank you cards are a perfect stocking stuffer."

Trick Yourself into Saving Money
New Year's resolutions tend to spark images of lifting weights at the gym, saying no to chocolate cake and finally kicking that bad habit. But resolving to improve your career satisfaction can benefit you just as much as those typical vows. "If you like what you do, you'd add five days to every week," says Devora Zack, author of Networking for People Who Hate Networking. Keep the following promises, and you'll enjoy your time at the office, no matter how long your workweek might be.
It's not just for the unemployed. "Networking is the key to opening up doors," says Holly Paul, US recruiting leader for PricewaterhouseCoopers. Among what you can get out of it: learning about new opportunities that interest you and meeting the people who can help you get hired. So how do you do it? Whatever works for you, but Zack recommends inviting one or two colleagues who don't work on your team for coffee or lunch and learning about their jobs.

IHG Americas Investors & Leadership Conference kicks off25 Oct, 2010 By: Kirk Cassels Hotel and Motel Management
Las Vegas— In order for the InterContinental Hotels Group to deliver great hotels that guests love, it must focus on people, guest experience, responsible business and financial returns, according to IHG President of the Americas Jim Abrahamson. Touting such successes as an 8 percent increase in RevPAR across Holiday Inn, as well as a 7 percent increase in RevPAR in Holiday Inn Express, through the third quarter due to relaunch of the brand, Abrahamson was as quick to be cautious as he was laudatory.
"This is not a time to celebrate," Abrahamson said. "RevPAR may be improving but that doesn't mean recovery is fully here. Meanwhile, the government is looking for new ways to tax and regulate us. We need to focus on preference, performance and profitability. We need to be driven, distinctive and all about people."
Abrahamson kicked off the opening session of the IHG Americas Investors & Leadership Conference shortly after four guests shared their experiences in staying at any of the company's brands (in total, the guests spent 600 nights at IHG hotels in the past year). From the couple staying at Staybridge Suites after losing their house, to a grandfather taking a train journey to New Orleans with his son just after Mardi Gras concluded, the exemplary message was clear: Guest satisfaction leads to great business.
But at both the local and international level, there is much to be done in order to continuously maintain success in guest approval and loyalty. For instance, Abrahamson announced that IHG has doubled its revenue management program, and that the company has increased its field support teams while the IHG's competitors have cut back. In addition, IHG is rolling out some new operations initiatives to reinforce and reinvigorate its brands, primarily focusing on investment in its staff, talent and service.
For starters, IHG is introducing InnSupply, a management system aimed at leveraging buying power while reducing costs and improving quality. As InnSupply improves efficiency across the board, IHG will continue to focus on using new tools to attract and retain the best employees by hiring, training, improving and recognizing its outstanding workers. "Employee satisfaction leads to guest satisfaction, which leads to profit," Abrahamson said, noting that IHG trained more than 19,000 employees this year within more than 1,000 program sessions.
In addition to doing the right things for its employees, Abrahamson stressed the importance of IHG practicing responsible business through the new Green Engage program, which will bolster sustainability and eco-friendly operations at the company's brands. "It's about more than doing the right thing," he said. "It's about increasing margins, driving sales and reducing costs."
Following up on Abrahamson's message about service, Mark Carrier, senior vice president of the B. F. Saul Company Hotel Division and chairman of IAHI, the owners' association of IHG, quoted a Latin adage—ubi concordia, ibi victoria—reminding that audience that "where there's unity, there's victory." Carrier reflected on the success of IHG's "Celebrate Success" workshops when commending the general managers in the room for setting an example that resonates throughout the thousands of IHG hotels employees, noting that "love comes alive through you and when our guest love us, we succeed."
Touching on Abrahamson's message about what IHG needs to do to keep ahead, Bill Deforrest, CEO of Lane Hospitality and incoming 2011 chairman of IAHI, reiterated the importance of focusing on performance and profitable market share growth. Deforrest referenced the new InnSupply program when stating that taking 10 to 15 percent out of costs can be the same as a growing top line of 30 percent.
"As group business appears to be returning, all indications are that RevPAR will continue to grow," Deforrest said. "So we must focus on market share. We've gone from survival mode in 2009 to revival in 2010. 2011 must be thrive mode."
A part of thriving, according to Deforrest, is strengthening value. "We need to put the 'full' back in full service," he said. "We want our restaurants, lounges and media rooms to be full. We want to make every meal fun. We must create a brand premium that is a unique selling point."
Other notes from the opening session
* Candlewood Suites is experiencing the largest pipeline and the largest growth in the extended stay segment, rolling on recent property openings in San Antonio and Indianapolis.
* In addition to successful openings of InterContinental Hotels in New York City and Mendoza, Argentina, the brand will open at least eight properties in China by the end of next year.
* In New York City, 23 IHG hotels are all new or relaunched and have a RevPAR of $138 year-to-date.
* Crowne Plaza is experiencing the biggest pipeline in the upper scale segment and is "the brand to watch," according to Abrahamson, as it will evolve positioning in 2011.
* Hotel Indigo, referred to as the "fun" brand by Abrahamson, will open its first international property in Shanghai next year, and there are plans for other properties to open in London, Madrid, Taipei, Hong Kong and elsewhere.

as much as i love having a pair of ZX Flux's, i dislike them as i find them to rub the back of my feet most of the time when i wear them. the insulation at the back of the shoe quickly wore down for me until there is literally none there now. the plastic around the heels feels to be the problem as they seem to dig into the bottom of my heel as i walk. I am unsure whether this is just my feet not suiting these shoes or if i purchased the incorrect size, but i did in fact go down a size with them. i seem to be the only person who has this problem, so i hope this does not prohibit you from purchasing a pair. PS, i only ever have shoes that rub until they are properly broken, which usually takes around 2 weeks of consistent wearing them. Also, other than this issue there is no problem with my shoes, i love them other than this. ... read more

Retired Pa. Game Commission chief to get $220K severance payment
HARRISBURG — The Pennsylvania Game Commission plans to give its retired executive director $220,000, which a top lawyer to Gov. Tom Corbett calls an "improper severance agreement" that would drain resources from sportsmen's programs.
The payment to Carl Roe of Carlisle is awaiting approval by the state Attorney General's Office for "form and legality."
Roe, who retired on Jan. 17, could not be reached for comment on Thursday.
Attorney General Kathleen Kane's office is seeking "clarity" on certain issues and awaits a response from the commission, said her spokesman Joe Peters. The office will have 30 days to decide, he said.
"It's unconscionable they would be using public dollars from sportsmen and hunters to pay a severance package to a former employee," said Jay Pagni, a spokesman for Corbett.
Jarad W. Handelman, first executive deputy general counsel for Corbett, told Kane's office that he has "serious concerns about the legality" of the agreement.
Joseph Neville, director of information and education for the Game Commission, said he was unaware of the pending payment.
"We didn't address that at all" in the public announcement of Roe's retirement, he said.
In a letter to Adrian King, Kane's first deputy, Handelman asked the office to give the agreement "especially close scrutiny."
"Sportsmen, conservationists and countless Pennsylvanians depend on responsible public officials to assure that all Game Fund dollars are spent only for legally proper purposes," Handelman wrote.
Bob Schlemmer, the commission president, and Dave Putnam, the vice president, could not be reached.
The attorney general approved a version of an agreement between the Game Commission and Roe last year, according to Handelman's letter. But the comptroller flagged the proposed payment, Pagni said.
General Counsel James D. Schultz's office, where Handelman works, asked the commission to clarify the payment because it "appeared on its face to be a severance agreement" in violation of the state's administrative code.
The proposed agreement "was intended in part to settle potential claims that Roe might make" against his former agency, the commission told Schultz's office.
"We are skeptical that Roe, a strictly at-will employee of the (commission), has any claims he could credibly or legitimately make against (the commission)," Handelman wrote.
Handelman said his office was "convinced that the (commission) has agreed to pay Roe $220,000 as compensation to induce him to retire months earlier than he had intended and to agree to terms of confidentiality respecting his tenure with the (commission) and the circumstances of his severance."
Because the Game Commission is an independent state agency, the governor's lawyers can only advise the comptroller on processing of the agreement, Handelman said.
Roe was hired by the agency as a long-term planner in 2001. Four years later, commissioners named him executive director.
He came to the Game Commission after 30 years in the Army, including two combat tours in Vietnam. He retired as a colonel, according to his biography on the state website.

And They're Off: Kentucky Republican Senate Primary Begins with Dueling Ads
12:27 PM, Jul 24, 2013 • By MICHAEL WARREN
Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, the five-term Republican from Kentucky, has drawn a primary challenge for his reelection effort next year from businessman Matt Bevin. Bevin, who will likely self-finance part of his campaign, is out with his first ad Wednesday. The 30-second spot purports to introduce the first-time candidate to voters, though it spends just as much time criticizing the 71-year-old McConnell for his "30 years in Washington."
"McConnell has voted for higher taxes, bailouts, debt-ceiling increases, congressional pay raises, and liberal judges," says the ad's narrator. "Matt Bevin: small-town roots, successful businessman, father of nine, veteran, conservative, Repubican for U.S. Senate." Watch the ad below:
Asked for a comment, McConnell campaign manager Jesse Benton emailed the following: "Mitch McConnell is Kentucky's greatest advocate and he fights his heart out for our Commonwealth every day. Mitch is working hard to bring all Kentuckians - Republicans, TEA Partiers, Independents and conservative Democrats - together to stand against the liberal Obama agenda in Washington. We are grateful for Mitch's broad support as we move forward to victory in November of 2014."
McConnell's campaign, meanwhile, also released an ad Wednesday, asking the question, "Who is Matt Bevin?" The ad focuses on the 46-year-old Bevin's time as a businessman in Connecticut and says he's not the conservative he claims to be.
"When his Connecticut businesses needed help, Bevin took $200,000 in taxpayer bailouts, even though Bevin failed to pay taxes," says the narrator. "Bevin's business was assessed at least eight leins for not paying taxes." Watch McConnell's ad below:
Bevin has responded to McConnell's ad in a statement. "It is truly unfortunate and sad to see Mitch McConnell go to such desperate lengths simply to maintain his iron-clad grasp on political power," Bevin said. "If a 30-year politician can't defend his record of forcing Kentucky taxpayers to pay for the bailouts of the Wall Street banks and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, he doesn't deserve to be in office. Kentucky voters deserve more than mud slinging and lies. They deserve an honest debate about the issues facing them."
The Bevin campaign also disputes the claims that Bevin took a $200,000 "taxpayer bailout" and says he only took a $100,000 loan from the city of East Hampton, Connecticut, in 2012 after his business was damaged in a storm.

Andy Cohen: A Terrible Way For Season To End
Posted By Andy Cohen On December 30, 2013 @ 5:55 am In Football | 61 Comments
[1]Andy Cohen In The Morning will continue to run during the offseason, but only as events dictate.
Be sure to follow Andy Cohen on Twitter at @ACohenFins [2].
Now, there are only questions.
How could this happen? How could the Dolphins lose to the Jets on Sunday and Buffalo the week before? How could they let their season end this way? How could they fail to produce when the stakes were so high? How? Why?
Indeed, these Dolphins have a lot of explaining to do. That's what happens when your season is filled with so much promise and then, just two weeks later, filled with so much despair. That's what happens when the mistakes pile up, when the offense can't produce important first downs and when the defense can't come up with game-defining moments.
You look at the entire body of work, you analyze a final record that screams average, and the conclusion you draw is really very simple: The Dolphins don't deserve a spot in the postseason. Not the way they finished the season. Not the way they played against the Jets.
Through the first three weeks of December, the Dolphins looked like a playoff team. Played like a playoff team. And then, just as quickly, it all disappeared. The important plays. The confidence. The execution. Everything. The Dolphins scored a total of seven points in the final two games and that probably tells you everything you need to know.
"You have to earn your way into the playoffs," said coach Joe Philbin. "We didn't do that."
No, instead they regressed. Instead they saved their worst for last. Instead they simply did not respond the way quality teams do.
"There are no words to describe how I feel right now," said veteran defensive tackle Jared Odrick, his head down, his voice barely audible. "I just don't know what to say."
What needs to be said is this: This team underperformed. Yes, even when you consider the problems on the offensive line. You look at the roster and they are clearly better than both the Bills and Jets. Now the tough part is trying to figure out why they didn't play like it.
How could Ryan Tannehill get outplayed by both Thad Lewis and Geno Smith over these last two Sundays after out-dueling Tom Brady the Sunday before that? It just doesn't make sense.
How could the running game struggle so badly? How could the defense be so porous against the run? How could a fourth-and-one handoff to Charles Clay produce minus yardage when all he needed was a couple of inches?
Yes, so many players failed to step up. Rishard Matthews drops a huge third down pass. Tannehill throws a pick deep in Jets territory. Why, even Brandon Fields shanked his first punt of the season. The list goes on and on.
And then there was that long pass to Mike Wallace. The Dolphins were up 7-0 thanks to a short Wallace touchdown catch a few minutes before. Momentum was theirs for the taking; the Jets seemed ready to go down. So Wallace runs a takeoff and like so many times this season he has a clear step on the defender. But, like so many times this season, Tannehill fails to connect, his pass sailing a few precious inches beyond Wallace's reach.
"We make that play and we are up 14-0 and it's a different game," Wallace said. "We play differently up 14-0 and the Jets play differently."
The bright lights make Wallace squint. You could tell, like so many of his teammates, he has run out of reasons. "I've got to do more," he said. "We all have to do more. We have to play with more hunger. We have too much talent to be 8-8."
Too much talent to be 8-8. That may be the one line that best sums up the 2013 Dolphins. You look at what happened against the Bills and then the Jets and you try to make sense of it all. You try to understand how a team with so much on the line, a team playing at home, a team with an early 7-0 lead, can let it all slip away.
"The responsibility starts with the head coach," said Philbin.
And Philbin, no doubt, will have plenty on his plate during the months ahead. You can't stand pat when you finish 8-8. You've got to make changes. You've got to adjust. You've got to do plenty of soul-searching. You've got to get a feel for why this team had nothing left at the finish.
Right now all we have are questions. So many questions and, sadly, so few answers.

The line that used to separate work life from personal life is growing fainter. Employee-assistance programs, drug and alcohol counseling, and work-and-family programs all cross that line. So do benefits like those offered by Hemmings Motor News. The Bennington, Vt., publisher offers a series of seminars to help its 105 employees manage their lives better.
In the past few years, the company's employees have attended brown-bag lunchtime seminars on low-fat cooking, nutrition for kids, investing, and more. Usually, from 10 to 20 workers have attended each session. Among the most popular seminars were an unusual weight-control seminar called "Food: Friend or Foe" and a discussion group on menopause.
Hemmings's volunteer health team arranges the seminars, drawing ideas from occasional companywide surveys and from employees' evaluations of previous seminars. For instance, instruction on reading nutrition labels was added to a weight watchers' seminar at a worker's suggestion. A local bank manager discussed investment, for free, and a nutritionist from a nearby wellness center charges Hemmings less than $100 a visit. Occasionally, as topics require a more expensive speaker, Hemmings charges workers a small fee to attend, but 50% of it is reimbursable under the company's fitness benefit.
Why should an employee's weight or personal investments or, of all things, menopause be a manager's concern? Hemmings's handbook explains, "The Company gains much from energetic, healthy employees." And the program is a low-cost way to engender loyalty through a unique corporate culture.* * *

This fine pair of American Fancy chairs is in absolutely untouched condition, which is rare. Often they were repainted, stripped, or the seat was replaced, breaking the thin piece of wood around the edge in the process... here it is still held on with the original square nails.
These chairs have tapering front legs with small ball feet, and ring turnings. The rear legs. a continuation of the uprights, are turned, simply shaped, and canted backwards. The legs are braced by a box stretcher with the front member being turned with a diamond shaped, flat central decoration. The uprights of the back have a slight backward curve, and support a wide, concave back rail. The back contains two plain back splats. Both chairs retain their original shield shaped rush seat.
The original yellow paint was applied over gesso, the whole striped with a deep red and gilt. Additionally, there are charming gilded oak leaves and acorns painted on the rail, accented with black and deep red.
These chairs are made from hand planed planks. You can see this most dramatically on the top rail when the light rakes across it and accents the texture of the wood.
Condition is remarkable in that they are completely original. There is appropriate wear to the paint, and a spot on one seat where the rush is worn through. There are some stray pieces of rush that hang down from the bottom of the seat, which I simply tuck back up. None of this compromises their solid structure; it is all really very minor, and should be left alone to preserve their value as American antiques. Please look at the pictures. Each chair measures 19 1/4" at the widest point of the seat, 33 1/4" to the top of the thumbs, 32 1/4" to the top of the splat, and 17 3/4" to the top of the seat.
This is a rare and wonderful pair of chairs. They are fine American antiques, and in a good home, should last another 200 years.

Homers Ilias
Gesamtkommentar, auf der Grundlage der Ausgabe von Ameis-Hentze-Cauer (1868-1913)
[Homer's Iliad: Commentary. Based on the Ameis-Hentze-Cauer (1868–1913) edition]
Ed. by Latacz, Joachim / Bierl, Anton
Prolegomena and approx. 15 vol. in 30 Fasc.
- Prolegomena
- Close sectionBand I Erster Gesang (A)
- Close sectionBand II Zweiter Gesang (B)
- Close sectionBand III Dritter Gesang
- Close sectionBand IV Sechster Gesang
- Close sectionBand V Neunter Gesang

- Close sectionBand XI Achtzehnter Gesang
Aims and Scope
Since Ameis-Hentze-Cauer (1868-1913) no comprehensive, scholarly commentary of Homer's Iliad has been published in German. In the meantime considerable progress has been made in many traditional areas of Homeric studies (language, realia, structure etc.). In addition, generally acknowledged new fields such as narratology have been systematically studied. Furthermore, the knowledge of the Mycenaean language (Linear B) and oral poetry provide completely new possibilities of textual constitution and analysis. Using the old Ameis-Hentze-Cauer as a starting point, the new commentary reflects the current scholarship on Homer in a comprehensive way. As a new standard work, the "Basel Commentary" of the Iliad has received considerable recognition among scholars worldwide. The fresh concept in terms of content and form serves the needs of different groups of users. The commentary primarily aims at students and academic teachers (at schools and universities), not only of Classics but also of cultural and literary studies as well as of humanities in general. The original plan to proceed from book to book was abandoned. With respect to the current preferences in schools and universities the six most important books will be available until 2009 at the latest: 3 (teichoscopia, truce, single-combat between Menelaus and Paris), 6 (the episode of Diomedes and Glaucus, Hector in Troy), 9 (overtures to the angry Achilles), 19 (Achilles' reconciliation and return to battle), 22 (Hector's death) and 24 (Hector's body is returned to Priam by Achilles). The authors of the volumes to be published until 2009 are the following: Book 3: Dr. Martha Krieter-Spiro Book 6: Dr. Magdalene Stoevesandt Book 9: Prof. Dr. Joachim Latacz Book 19: Dr. Marina Coray Book 22: Prof. Dr. Robert Plath Book 24: lic. phil. Claude Brügger.

Do whatever you have to do to keep Hetty!!!!!! She has made this show unique and we love to watch her. She has a great chemistry with the other wonderful cast members. I just love the way this small woman can scare the big ol' boys! She was made for this part. If she goes so do my husband and I. This is one of the shows that we make time for every week - even if it is a rerun.
Hetty is one of the reasons I watch this show. She cannot be replaced! The only way she can leave this show is if she goes to NCIS!
