Worcester, Mass. — The body of a small boy apparently cast off the side of a highway has been confirmed as a missing 5-year-old, authorities said Saturday.
The body found Friday off Interstate 190 has been positively identified as Jeremiah Oliver, Worcester County District Attorney Joseph D. Early Jr. said. No charges were immediately announced related to Jeremiah's death.
He was last seen by relatives in September but wasn't reported missing until December. Authorities had said they feared the Fitchburg boy was dead.
Early said in a statement Saturday that the autopsy report is not complete. The investigation is continuing, he said.
"It appears to be a homicide," the prosecutor said at a news conference Friday.
Early said the body was found at about 9 a.m. Friday by a police search team about 40 feet off I-190 near Sterling, which is about 12 miles from Fitchburg. He said it was wrapped in blanket-like material and packed in material that resembled a suitcase.
He would not say what led authorities to the location or how long the body may have been there. He said the site is near an area that is regularly mowed on the side of the highway but would not have been visible to passing cars.
Jeremiah's mother, Elsa Oliver, 28, pleaded not guilty in March to charges including kidnapping, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, and reckless endangerment. Her boyfriend, Alberto Sierra, 23, pleaded not guilty to similar charges.
The family was being monitored by state social workers since 2011. And after Jeremiah's disappearance, their case led to intense scrutiny of the state Department of Children and Families.
Three employees of the agency — a social worker, a supervisor and an area manager — were fired after an internal investigation. Officials said the social worker had not made required monthly visits to the family.
The governor asked the Child Welfare League of America to review DCF but resisted calls from some lawmakers to fire Olga Roche, the agency's commissioner.
In an initial report filed by the league last month, it recommended that Massachusetts take a number of steps to shore up its child welfare system, including boosting staffing levels to reduce social worker caseload.
A separate report from the state's Child Advocate, Gail Garinger, suggested that state social workers missed nearly one in five home visits during a recent 12-month period, though state officials said the figure was likely overstated.
Roche assured state legislators in January that DCF had accounted for the safety of all other young children in its care.
Oliver and Sierra, who were indicted by a Worcester County grand jury, are both being held on bail — $100,000 for Oliver and $250,000 for Sierra.
Three other people have been charged with interfering with a criminal investigation and misleading police in connection with the case.

It's something of a truism that science fiction generally is a good predictor of our future (think of the inventions of Star Trek). Hopes and Fears suggests that we should also be looking to Japanese anime for hints of our future:
… Read the rest
While Western audiences constantly look to science fiction to get a feel for what the future might look like, anime is often overlooked when they pull out their crystal balls. This is a shame because the talented forces behind one of the world's most popular artforms have an extremely distinctive outlook on what is to come.
From robot pocket cat children's shows to battling it out on Mars with the Judeo-Christian god, Japan's authors and artists have looked to the future with awe, hope, nuclear world wars, horrible space aliens, and giant, highly destructive mecha (that also make for very marketable toys). It's often bleak, terrifying or just strange, but it's always awesome.

And after playing a bit of it on the Vita TV at TGS, I was more than a little excited to spend some quality time with its updated graphics. But even I was surprised at just how much better the game looks on the Vita when I compared them side by side. »

French scientist calculates Pi to record number of digits
A French computer scientist claims to have calculated Pi to nearly 2.7 trillion decimal places, a new record made even more impressive because he did it on a personal computer.
Fabrice Bellard beat the previous record by 100 billion digits on a desktop computer which ran for 131 days to complete and check the result. The number is so long that if each digit was spoken a second at a time it would take nearly 85,000 years to finish the number.

ARTBA letter to conferees: 'Approving transportation bill does not guarantee jobs'
The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) sent a letter to conferees for the reauthorization of a highway bill saying "it is one of the most proactive steps Congress can take to help boost the U.S. economy" after enduring more than 30 months of temporary extensions.
The funding uncertainty has "stifled lettings of long-term transportation infrastructure improvement projects in many states," ARTBA asserts.
However, the organization points out that the "direct and indirect employment benefits of a federal investment are undeniable," it doesn't guarantee creation of jobs if a transportation bill is approved.
Noting this, ARTBA is urging conferees "to ensure any conference report, at a minimum, provides inflation-adjusted FY 2011 levels of surface transportation investment as approved by the Senate. Failing to do so would solidify the job-threatening $2 billion cut in highway improvement funds enacted as part of the FY 2012 appropriations process."

If a site is that small, who would you need more than a static site
. Why is Wordpress is the lowest common denominator rather than "some CMS or static site generator"?
The number of themes and plugins available seems to be the big win, right?
My underlying point is the total package - abilities, headaches, support, and ease of development/fixing makes WordPress very appealing
for those with homegrown CMS's, did you do them from scratch, or use a web framework?
Out of the box, it could easily drive 98% of the websites on the planet.
We used to run the W3 cache plugin, but now only use the "Force GZip" plugin.

From KTOO: It's back to the 1970s for Southeast Alaska scuba divers. Anyone who requires emergency treatment in a hyperbaric chamber will have to wait for a flight to Anchorage or Seattle. Bartlett Regional Hospital in Juneau removed its chamber and closed the program after new regulations prompted a funding spat with NOAA, whose own divers in Southeast Alaska were glad to have the chamber handy.
Scuba divers are at risk of decompression illness, also known as the bends, which can be caused by a fast ascent, a deep dive, or a long dive. ...
Over the decades, the chamber at the hospital was also used for carbon monoxide poisoning and healing wounds. Dr. [William] Palmer says within the first six months of its arrival [in 1980], the chamber was used to treat 10 cases of monoxide poisoning.
The Juneau hyperbaric chamber had been used less frequently in recent years, but divers felt it was still needed, NOAA dive center manager Douglas Schleiger told KTOO.
"If there was a way to work it out where it could be up there and operated by trained, certified folks, and liabilities issues are all worked out, certainly I would do that if it's feasible because our divers have not gone away. They are still there."

Course overview
If you have completed an undergraduate degree at Deakin University or another tertiary institution in a course that is relevant to health, and you have good academic records you may apply to undertake a fourth year of study for an honours degree. The course is also suitable for you if you are a health care professional who has a background in nursing, education, health services or environmental health and you wish to increase your knowledge of health promotion and health education activities. The honours degree comprises a combination of coursework and a research project. In the project you will work with a supervisor and gain an insight into research. On successful completion of your honours degree you may apply to enter masters and doctoral programs by research.
Fees and charges
Equivalent Full Time Student Load (EFTSL)
EFTSL is the standard annual full time load. Eight credit points is considered a standard full time load for one year. Each unit you study has an EFTSL value. You can add these together to calculate your study load each year. Depending on enrolment, you may be enrolled in more than or less than the one EFTSL each year.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
Under the present legislation, a Commonwealth supported place is one for which the University receives some Government funding. Students enrolled in these places are required to contribute part of their course costs. To be eligible for a Commonwealth supported place you must be an Australian citizen, or New Zealand citizen or holder of a permanent visa who will be residing in Australia for the duration of your study.
Full-fee paying (FFP)
A full-fee paying place is one which the University does not receive any Government funding. Students enrolled in these places contribute the full cost of their course.
Domestic full-fee paying places are available to Australian citizens, New Zealand citizens or holders of a permanent visa.
Fee information for all domestic students
The current Federal Government has proposed a number of major reforms for the higher education sector (see the Higher Education and Research Reform Amendment Bill 2014), including fee deregulation in respect of domestic student fees. This legislation may be reintroduced to the parliament in the latter half of 2015 and if passed, will impact on the CSP and FFP course fees applicable in 2016.
* Therefore, the indicative annual course fee shown is provided as a guide only. It has been calculated on the basis of a typical enrolment of a student undertaking the course in 2015, and reflects the cost involved in undertaking full-time study within the specified discipline. The 2016 CSP and FFP course fees may change if the Commonwealth Government's proposed fee deregulation and reforms legislation is passed.
The actual fees charged by Deakin University, will depend on the individual unit discipline and may vary from the indicative course fee cited, particularly if units are chosen from a number of disciplines. The cost of each unit offered in 2016 can be viewed from the Unit Search. Should a change in Government policy affect the cost of units offered, the website will be updated as soon as possible.
The fees per unit/credit point may be otherwise subject to an annual increase due to rises in the cost of course delivery and service.
This information is provided as a guide only. No representation is made that the information provided is current or accurate. Deakin assumes no responsibility for persons relying on indicative course fees to calculate the total future cost of their course. Applicants can email firstname.lastname@example.com au for more information about 2016 fees.
Fee payment assistance
Australian citizens or holders of a permanent humanitarian visa, enrolling in a CSP or FFP, may be eligible for HECS-HELP or FEE-HELP respectively. For more information about HECS-HELP or FEE-HELP visit the Study Assist website.
Course rules
The course comprises 8 credit points of study, including two coursework units in research methods and research issues and an independent research project. Part-time students are required to complete the coursework components in their first year of study.

The Biggest Book in the WorldIf you spent your summer rifling through cheap paperbacks and you're ready for something more substantial here's a recommendation: the biggest book in the world. Measuring 5 x 7 feet and weighing 133 pounds, The Bhutan: A Visual Odyssey Across the Last Himalayan Kingdom is officially recognized as the largest book in the world by Guinness World Records. Created by Michael Hawley and composed of gigantic photographs of Bhutan, the book is printed only on demand and it takes a roll of paper longer than a football field, more than a gallon of ink, and 24 hours of press time to produce a single copy.

Saturday with a three legged BuddhaOne a recent sunny Saturday, a friend and I made the trip upstate to Storm King Art Center, an expansive sculpture park in Mountainville, NY. For years I'd heard about this impressive landscape, spotted with trees, ponds, and massive sculptures, but I was most excited about a new installation---Zhang Huan's Three Legged Buddha. Weighing 12 tons and towering at 28 feet, Three Legged Buddha does not travel easily, and it seems that Storm King is to be its final resting place. More »

With more than half of all Americans aged 12 or over on Facebook, it's no surprise the massive social network has revolutionized the way social scientists conduct and analyze research. The constantly growing body of information created by users as they update, connect, collect and communicate provides researchers with an easily accessible body of data right at their fingertips.
As a result, researchers now publish hundreds of studies on Facebook each year that reveal often surprising data about how social networking influences virtual and real-world relationships.
"We're on the cusp of a new way of doing social science," Harvard sociology professor Nicholas Christakis told The New York Times in a story examining the new link between Facebook and academic research. "Our predecessors could only dream of the kind of data we now have."
In 2011 alone, studies about Facebook or ones using Facebook as a primary source for data have offered insights into how the network affects happiness, how mothers use it to connect with their children, and what percentage of those same mothers end up hiding their profiles.
Unfortunately, it would be impossible to cover every Facebook surprise unveiled by studies over the last year. That said, we've whittled down the list to our top 7 surprising conclusions reached in 2011:
If this seems like an obvious conclusion to draw from Facebook, it's probably because it's such a ubiquitous feeling that many users no longer stop to question. Nevertheless, one researcher decided to further explore the connection between Facebook and unhappiness after observing that most of his friends felt worse about themselves right after logging onto the site. In a series of studies, Stanford University doctoral student Alex Jordan rounded up college undergraduates -- a demographic which came of age during the rise of Facebook -- and evaluated the students' abilities to accurately judge each others moods. Time and again, Jordan found that students underestimated how unhappy their peers were. And the more they underestimated others' sadness, the more unhappy they became. "If [Jordan's] conclusions are correct, it follows that the site would have a special power to make us sadder and lonelier," Slate writer Libby Copeland explained in her coverage of the study. "By showcasing the most witty, joyful, bullet-pointed versions of people's lives, and inviting constant comparisons in which we tend to see ourselves as the losers, Facebook appears to exploit an Achilles' heel of human nature."
Chances are if you asked a random Facebook user what interests him or her most about friends' profiles, he might mention status updates, comments, link shares and events. But Mashable decided to test whether actions speak louder than words by using eye-tracking technology to determine where users' eyes actually linger longest. After tracking the eye movements of about 30 users as they browsed profiles on Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and other sites, they made some interesting observations: On Facebook, StumbleUpon and Klout, profile pictures interested users the most. On LinkedIn, however, job title drew eyes quickest and longest, garnering more attention than anything else on the page. People actually do pay attention to who you know, scanning the tiny thumbnail pictures accompanying users listed on users' "Friends" list. As one might expect, the stuff posted at the top of profiles gained more attention than content appearing lower on the page, except on YouTube and Twitter. Check out Mashable for the full results of the study.
After studying the Facebook profiles of 225 male undergraduates at a large university, most around 19-years-old, researchers Katie Egan and Megan Moreno found that 85 percent referenced alcohol at least once in their profiles. Perhaps not surprisingly, an increase in references to alcohol corresponded to an increase in Facebook friends.
Researchers working in a partnership between Facebook and the University of Milan debunked the age-old "six degrees of separation" myth by analyzing the accounts of 721 million Facebook users -- or more than one-tenth of the world's population -- and finding that the average number of links separating one random person from another was 4.74. In the United States the number was even lower: 4.37. That's a much shorter distance between strangers than the 6.6-degree separation calculated by Microsoft researchers back in 2008, The New York Times explained in its coverage of the study. Check out Facebook's Data Page for more of the company's own research.
As reported by Mashable, a study analyzing the correlation between Facebook use and grade point average found that the average undergraduate's GPA only falls by 0.12 points for every 1.5 extra hours per week spent browsing Facebook. However, "extra time" in this context means the number of hours a person spends on Facebook above the average time most students spend per week on Facebook ... which is around 12 hours.
Despite Facebook safety regulations that prohibit children under the age of 13 from joining the site, half of all 12-year-olds have profiles on the site, a New York University survey found. And many of those kids registered on the site with the help of their parents. A number of parents interviewed about the study for the New York Daily News expressed an attitude of mixed resignation and support. "It's unenforceable. It's like having a big bowl of candy and not letting them have any," one parent said. "The internet is everywhere around us. You can't get away from it. You just have to have a long conversation about the rules."
It's hard to imagine Facebook not playing a part in the results of a recent Pew Center study which found that on any given day, over half of all adults aged 18-29 go online with no particular goal in mind aside from passing the time or having fun. "If they have broadband, if they are online video consumers, if they use social media of any kind -- especially social networking sites -- they are much more likely than others to go online to pass the time," the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project explained in their analysis of the study.

Posted February 23, 2012 on AP on Fox
Pittsburgh Pirates president Frank Coonelly faces four drunken driving-related charges after an incident on Dec. 22 in suburban Pittsburgh. Police in Ross Township, Pa., charged Coonelly, 51, with one count each of drunken driving, driving the wrong way, careless driving and driving with a blood-alcohol content of at least twice the state's legal limit of .08. The DUI charges are misdemeanors. Driving the wrong way and careless driving are summary offenses. Coonelly waived his right to a hearing on Feb. 1 and was released on his own recognizance. His arraignment is March 20 in Allegheny County Common Pleas Court. Coonelly arrived Thursday at the Pirates' training complex, but did not speak with reporters. The team issued a statement from Coonelly and Bob Nutting, the Pirates' principal owner. ''My actions that evening were irresponsible and wrong,'' Coonelly said. ''I take full and sole responsibility for them. There is no excuse for ever driving under the influence of alcohol. ...

Did you use Migration Assistant?

Re: where do the files go? in response to sprew03 Helpful
Did you use Setup Assistant when you initially started the computer or Migration Assistant after the computer was up and running? Setup assistant files will be in your user folder. Migration Assistant creates a new user account which would require you to logout and log in to that user account.

Re: where do the files go? in response to sprew03
Welcome to iMac!
If you go to the Finder and choose to open a new window (File > New Finder Window) then you can start by looking at the All My Files search on the left side of the finder window (that's the Sidebar). If you know where you copied your IBM documents, you should be able to look inside that specific folder.
The Sidebar should display your Home (that's the listing that has your account nickname on it and shows a house icon). If you click on that then your window will show the folders to which you have access (such as Documents).
If after looking at these you still cannot find these documents, then it is possible you may have moved them to some folder outside of your user account home. In that case, go to Spotlight (the magnifying glass icon in the upper right) and start typing the name of one of these missing documents. Spotlight should list it in the results. If you hover your cursor over the name of the file for a few seconds, then you will get a display of the entire path of the file and you can follow that. If you Command-click on the name of the file, you should open the enclosing folder it resides in.
Hope this helps!

All of the members raise and sell barnyard animals such as hens and hogs. They see great opportunities for progress in the Fundacion's program.
Virginia is requesting this loan for the purchase of animal feed. With it, she will be able to feed her animals and continue helping her family with her increased income.

Virginia solicita el crédito para la compra de balanceados, con los cuales podrá alimentar a sus animales y seguir ayudando también a su familia con los mejores ingresos.
Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

About Me
I'm a designer artist currently located in the Dallas Fort-Worth area. Currently, by day I'm a corporate graphic designer. By night, I'm an illustrator.
I occasionally do some figure photography; I mostly enjoy doing street and event photography. All of my other photography and snapshots can be found on my wife and my Flickr account listed below.
I am currently UNAVAILABLE for commissions.
I create a unique pinup from your photograph in various formats ranging from 8x11 to 24x32, all ready to print. Though for the best results, we would need to shoot together. Price is dependent on complication of the piece. Payment will be through a Square invoice. You'll get a print-ready file so you can print it whenever you want to. Email me at vinhluanluu (at) gmail for details.
Note on Studio
Please note that I do not have a studio. I just shoot in a corner at my apartment; which for what I do is all I need currently. I am just putting this out there so that there is no surprise when it comes to the shoot. There are a few studios that I have on my radar that does rentals. If you have any recommendations for our shoot, I'm open to suggestions.
Trade Conditions
These are my terms for a TFP/CD: We both maintain personal usage rights to the illustrated image. I would send you a high resolution TIFF(11x17, 300dpi) , ready to print. We both can sell or gift the image as a print; but we can not commercially license it without asking the other party permission and would require a monetary share.
I will credit you on each illustration with your model mayhem name/number, unless you would rather me use something else.

Sexbomb PAM missed nookie with her ex-cookie but now they're back together -- doing the horizontal mambo.
ALMOST six years after they were married in a quickie Las Vegas wedding, Pam Anderson and her ex-hubby Rick Salomon are back together – and sources say it's because Pam missed the sex!
"Pam and Rick have been quietly seeing each other since at least April," said a source close to the former "Baywatch" babe. "They've known each other for more than 20 years, and she says that sex is still terrific with Rick.
"They've hooked up a lot in the past few months."
Salomon, a high-stakes poker player, 44, is best known for appearing with his then-girlfriend Paris Hilton in the 2003 sex tape, "1 Night in Paris."
Pam, 46, and Rick were recently photographed going out for ice cream in Malibu with Pam's son Dylan, 15, who's from her marriage to rocker Tommy Lee.
"It's a very comfortable relationship," said the source. "There's no pressure as neither of them are eager to tie the knot again – with each other or anyone else."
Pam and Rick got married Oct. 6, 2007, at Las Vegas' Mirage Hotel.
As The ENQUIRER reported at the time, the REAL reason they did it was because they were shopping a reality show that included the wedding and the couple's red-hot honeymoon.
But those plans eventually fizzled – and so did the marriage. By March 2008, the union was annulled after both cited fraud.
Pam has previously been married to Lee and rocker Kid Rock, while Rick has also been married twice.
"Pam and Rick believe their relationship could last this time," added the source, "as long as they don't get hitched again!"
