Groton — Electric Boat and the Metal Trades Council have agreed to a new five-year contract that includes raises, a pension increase for current employees and a voluntary severance package.
The union's 2,200 members were asked to vote on the deal Tuesday. Those voting approved it 1,307 to 277. About 40 votes from employees who are working off-site have not yet been counted.
Considering the economic climate, Kenneth DelaCruz, MTC president, said, it is "a good contract." The MTC includes boilermakers, office and professional employees, pipefitters, machinists, teamsters, laborers, electricians and painters.
"I think the company acknowledges the skill sets of the workforce and recognizes that you have to maintain these skill sets," DelaCruz said Wednesday.
In a memo to employees, Electric Boat President Jeff Geiger described the agreement as fair for the company and MTC members.
"We believe this contract benefits both Electric Boat and the bargaining-unit members," he said. "With the stability this contract provides, we can continue producing the submarines the U.S. Navy needs to maintain undersea dominance."
Electric Boat in Groton and Newport News Shipbuilding in Virginia build two Virginia-class submarines annually under a teaming agreement, and EB is designing the ballistic-missile submarine to replace the Ohio-class boats.
"In addition to strengthening compensation and benefits for the workforce, these successful negotiations also avoided any disruption to the incomparable assembly of the most advanced submarines in the world," U.S. Rep. Joe Courtney, D-2nd District, said in a statement. "Approval of this agreement provides important momentum to EB and its highly skilled workforce as they continue to achieve incredible success in the two submarine a year build rate and prepare to tackle the Ohio Replacement Program."
The 65-month contract, which covers this month through Sept. 27, 2019, provides a 3 percent wage increase in 2014 and 2015 and a 3.5 percent increase in 2016, 2017 and 2018. The hourly rate for a first-class mechanic, for example, will increase from $26.48 to $31.14, for an additional $9,692.80 over the contract term.
Beginning in 2015, the multiplier that is used to calculate the monthly pension for eligible union members will grow from $54 to $59 for future years of service. New hires and those who are rehired after Dec. 31, 2014, are not eligible for the benefit, unless they previously participated in the company's retirement plan.
DelaCruz said the union lobbied for pensions for new employees but the company did not want that liability.
Under the voluntary severance plan, union members who are at least 62 years old and up to 65 with five years of continuous service can accept a payment of $25,000, or medical care at the rates paid by active employees until they reach 65, as incentive to leave the company. Employees who are 65 years and older with five years of continuous service would receive the $25,000 payment.
"It would save some of our younger folks from layoffs this year," DelaCruz said. "We could have some downturns. We saw this as helping out the young folks, as well as helping out the folks who put a lot of years into this place."
Moving forward, DelaCruz said, "We should be in pretty good shape."
During six weeks of talks, DelaCruz said the negotiators discussed medical insurance at length and agreed to continue with the existing plans, with modest premium increases and plan design changes. To encourage people to use the company pharmacy, the co-pay for employees who are taking medication for chronic conditions will double if they do not use the EB pharmacy.
EB will also annually contribute 2.6 percent of each union member's base wages to the 401(k) plan on behalf of the employees.

For More on Polyiso
For additional information on polyiso insulation or the ESPG study, please visit the website of the Polyisocyanurate Insulation Manufacturers Association (PIMA) at (www.pima.org) or call (202) 628-6558. PIMA is the national trade organization that advances the use of polyiso insulation. Its membership consists of manufacturers and re-labelers of polyiso insulation, as well as suppliers to the industry.
The purpose of the case study, conducted by Energy Services Provider Group (ESPG), an independent energy analysis firm in Maryland, was to measure the economic and environmental effects of additional thickness of polyiso roof insulation, over the minimum code requirement. Building energy costs were calculated for buildings in seven U.S. cities: Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Dallas, Seattle, Denver, and Atlanta.
The study demonstrated that increasing the thickness of polyiso roof insulation not only provides a positive rate of return on the cost of installation but also reduces energy costs and harm to the environment.
The study examined two types of facilities: a retail building and an elementary school. A "model" of each facility, based on a statistical database of 25 years of energy simulations, was referenced. The current ASHRAE 90.1-1999 standards for roof insulation were used as the baseline for the minimum roof insulation requirements.
This database defined the typical retail building as a single-story, 100,000-square-foot structure (two-to-five length/width ratio) with 30-percent glazing. The structure was cooled to 78 degrees F. in the summer and heated to 72 degrees F. in the winter. Unoccupied temperatures were maintained at 90 degrees F. in summer and 55 degrees F. in winter.
This database also defined the typical elementary school as a single-story 65,000-square-foot structure (two-to-five length/
width ratio) with 30-percent glazing. The structure was cooled to 75 degrees F. in the summer and heated to 72 degrees F. in the winter. Unoccupied temperatures were maintained at 90 degrees F. in summer and 60 degrees F. in winter.
Generally, the study found that increasing the insulation thickness by 1-inch or more:
• Provides a significant rate of return to users for the financial investment of installing additional polyiso insulation.
• Reduces the costs to facilities on average $2,500 per year.
• Reduces CO2 emissions by thousands of pounds, SO2 emissions by thousands of grams, and NOx emissions by thousands of grams per year.
Results: Elementary Schools
In each city, except for Los Angeles, the ASHRAE specified minimum insulation value equates to 2-inches of polyiso roof insulation. In Los Angeles, the ASHRAE specified minimum insulation value equates to 1-inch of polyiso roof insulation. The study concluded that the environmental impact of these energy savings in elementary schools equates to significant reductions in CO2 , SO2 , and NOX emissions. Due to the unoccupied summer months, the overall energy savings for elementary schools is low. However, the savings in operating costs and energy use are still significant. In addition, users receive a positive rate of return on their investment (see chart).

Christopher Brekken sells Harley-Davidsons in Rice Lake, and he's got a big problem with the Milwaukee prosecutor who's been leading the John Doe probe into illegal activity among aides to Gov. Scott Walker when he was running Milwaukee County.
Brekken has sued Assistant District Attorney Bruce Landgraf, seeking damages for false imprisonment and abuse of process related to a 2010 subpoena for records about some credit card purchases from Rice Lake Harley-Davidson.
The suit, filed in Barron County Circuit Court in September, claims that Brekken could not produce or obtain the very specific information that had been subpoenaed, and he told Landgraf he could not.
But a bench warrant was issued for Brekken in October 2010 that required him to travel to Milwaukee that November to again affirm under oath that he couldn't find out the full credit card number used by specific person on a specific date at Rice Lake Harley.
In quoting the subpoena, the lawsuit redacts the name, date, amount and partial credit card number.
Brekken, 46, contends Landgraf had a vendetta against him because Brekken hung up on him when Landgraf first called to try and get the credit card information.
Landgraf has filed a motion to dismiss the case, claiming that Brekken failed to file the proper notice of claim.
Neither Brekken nor his attorney, Michael Schwartz of St. Paul, Minn., responded to requests for comment.
Landgraf is being represented by the state Department of Justice. He said his attorneys there did not want him to comment.
Three former Walker aides have been convicted as a result of the John Doe probe.
Walker's spokesman Cullen Werwie said he did not know Brekken or whether he had played any role in Walker's campaign, and staff more familiar with Walker's campaign did not respond to a reporter's questions.
As county executive, Walker took motorcycle tours around Wisconsin to promote Milwaukee County, including in 2009 and 2010 when he was also running for governor.
The case is set for a telephone conference on Friday before Barron County Circuit Judge James Babbitt.

A "King Lear" transformation.
Dear Kent,
I want to put right all that has gone awry. In your letter, you voiced a fear for my father's sanity, and I too share that fear. I cannot believe this kingdom has sunk so low! It is unthinkable that my father has lost his grasp on power – if my sisters fulfil their intentions he will have nothing. In turn, I now have nothing! I have no father, no power, no money – I am living only off my husband's royalties, and I am worried for myself.
To be banished by my own father! How can it be so? Our bond was stronger than that of my sisters. Insincere, they are proud as peacocks, shedding false feathered promises, which have no reflection on their true feelings. I do not trust them so far as yet; I fear hidden intentions. Happily wed, France carries half my love with him, half my care and duty. But sure, I said, I should never marry like my sisters. Why do these words, so true to the fountain of my mind, have such little effect upon my father? My sisters chose to have husbands, so how can father believe they love him all? They have shrewdly, dependent upon their own cunning, spun this web of deceit; capturing our father in their transparent threads. I am infuriated beyond anything I have felt before. As a daughter, I have just as much right to this kingdom as anyone else. I have done no wrong by my father, and yet I am left with nothing. Nothing will come of nothing! If you could only hear me Kent – my words scream with anger. This abhorrence between me and my sisters is destroying my name and my wealth! We are not the first, Kent, who with best meaning, have incurred the worst. How could I have rejected my father's offer of a husband, when it was the only thing left to me, to keep me alive? Something to name as mine! And yet, by doing so, and marrying, I have gone against the very words spoken to prove my love for my father; and even now, I still do not own my kingdom.
Amidst all this negativity, however, France, I admit, is glorious; I would be sad to leave, if I was not aware of more pressing matters back home. Here, there is a thrilling sense of freedom, which was never present back in England. I have tried innumerable new things; devoured so many delicacies – such wonderful foods that Cordelia has never even seen before. The sun sets in the evening, in such a beautiful array of colours, that the walls of my parlour turn pink, and the whole world is painted in the colours of summer. Indeed, on such evenings, I wonder if I am in some glorious, rose-tinted dream. In France, my anger feels lessened slightly. But then I open my eyes, and I remember. My life was so miserable when I left England, that moving here has given me time to think.

Just reporting on the solution I found when I had the 0xC0AA0208 error.
On Win7 with a LG GH22NS50, it turned out that the original firmware for the drive didn't support windows 7 properly. Lucky for me there was a firmware update that added "windows 7 support."
So check, but I don't advise to update your firmware unless it specifically states that it fixes the problem as it could brick your drive if the update fails.

Agricultural Issues in the 109th Congress
Date: October 6, 2006
Creator: Chite, Ralph M.
Description: A number of issues affecting U.S. agriculture have been or are being addressed by the 109th Congress. The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-171), enacted in February 2006, included a net reduction in spending on U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) mandatory programs of $2.7 billion over five years, and the reauthorization of a dairy income support program. Other issues of importance to agriculture during the second session of the 109th Congress include the consideration of emergency farm disaster assistance; multilateral and bilateral trade negotiations; concerns about agroterrorism, food safety, and animal and plant diseases (e.g., "mad cow" disease and avian flu); high energy costs; environmental issues; agricultural marketing matters; the reauthorization of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission; and farm labor issues.

Agricultural Disaster Assistance
Date: October 6, 2006
Creator: Chite, Ralph M.
Description: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers several permanently authorized programs to help farmers recover financially from a natural disaster, including federal crop insurance, the non-insured assistance program and emergency disaster loans. In recent years, Congress frequently has made supplemental financial assistance available to farmers and ranchers on an ad-hoc basis, most notably in the form of direct crop disaster payments and emergency livestock assistance. Congress provided an estimated $3.1 billion of such assistance in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2003 (P.L. 108-7) for 2001 and 2002 crop and livestock losses. Some farm groups would like to see similar assistance provided for 2003 losses, particularly in regions of the Midwest and West that have experienced prolonged drought conditions. To date, no ad-hoc assistance has been made available for 2003 losses.

HANCOCK COUNTY (WVLT) – A Hancock County elementary school principal will plead guilty in court on Friday for assaulting a student.
According to the school system, the assault occurred on November 1, 2007 at Hancock County Elementary when Principal Thomas Q. Zachary was administering "corporal punishment" to a young student with a large wooden paddle.
The court report says Zachary administered "two series of assaults" to the child's backside within a 15 minute time period, and the child had to be taken to Wellmont Hancock County Hospital's emergency room for treatment.
Corporal punishment is allowed in Hancock County schools, but strict guidelines must be followed.
It is still unknown if the school system or Department of Child Services will take action against Zachary.

Green Tea Energy
Green Tea Energy
BevNET Review
Last Updated: 12/31/2008 11:24 AM
From a flavor point of view, Nature's Answer Natural Green Tea Energy shot is one of the more enjoyable shots that we've sampled. The product has a moderate amount of tea flavor (using organic tea) with a natural level of sweetness, which is supplied via agave nectar and stevia. They've also added vitamins, taurine, ginseng, as well as extracts of mangosteen, coffee fruit, grape seed, goji, acai, pomegranate, blueberry, guarana, and yerba mate among other things. Aside from tasting great and being loaded with all natural ingredients, this product packs an 80mg hit of caffeine which will certainly give most people a boost. Packaging is the biggest area of improvement, with a 2oz shot that's cluttered and hard to read. Furthermore, it feels rather sterile in design, with a small logo wedged in the corner between a bevy of text. Overall, this was an enjoyable and functional product that could, assuming they have some legs behind the brand and can fix the design, be poised to take advantage over the underserved natural niche of the shot market.

Posted December 21, 2012 on AP on Fox
Ahmad Bradshaw took part in practice on a limited basis Friday, and New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin said he was encouraged about having the running back for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Bradshaw, the team's leading rusher, sat out last week's 34-0 loss at Atlanta after spraining his left knee a week earlier in a win over New Orleans. ''He looked OK,'' Coughlin said Friday. ''As long as he continues to progress the way he has, he should be able to go. He brings a lot to the table in terms of fire and energy. Those are the most important factors. Knowing him, I am not surprised that he's made his way back.'' Bradshaw has 869 yards and five touchdowns this season, and has been battling a foot injury throughout the season, but the left knee injury knocked him out of the lineup. He put on shoulder pads and headed out to practice Friday for the first time in nearly two weeks. He's listed as questionable. The Giants, Redskins and Cowboys are in a first-place tie in th...

- The Dutchman's tactics explained
- Peter Schmeichel explains why he's the right choice
- Why Van Gaal is the true heir to Sir Alex Ferguson
- Ryan Giggs: A career in pictures
- The best one-liners and witty quotes from Louis van Gaal
The wait is over.
Manchester United have appointed Louis van Gaal as their new manager. The Dutchman replaces David Moyes as the permanent coach at Old Trafford, after Ryan Giggs has four games in charge.
Stay tuned for updates and reaction to the announcement, with David McDonnell filing more details on the news throughout the afternoon.
Is this the start of a new age for the Red Devils?
The scene at the Netherlands training camp. Probably.
BREAKING: Man United appoint Van Gaal as new manager pic.twitter.com/KVhvY0mIFu— Mirror Football (@MirrorFootball) May 19, 2014
"Louis van Gaal will take over as manager of Manchester United from the 2014/15 season. He has signed a three-year contract.
"Louis, 62, has managed at the top level of European football for over 20 years and in that time has won domestic titles and domestic cups in three countries, as well as the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Cup, an Intercontinental Cup, two UEFA Super Cups and domestic Super Cups in Holland and Germany."
"Louis, 62, has managed at the top level of European football for over 20 years and in that time has won domestic titles and domestic cups in three countries, as well as the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Cup, an Intercontinental Cup, two UEFA Super Cups and domestic Super Cups in Holland and Germany.
"He will take up his post after the FIFA World Cup, where he will manage the Dutch national team."
"Ryan Giggs, English football's most decorated footballer and the United player with most appearances in the club's history, has been appointed as assistant manager. Ryan took charge of the first team for the last four matches of the 2013/14 season.
"Announcing the appointments, Ed Woodward said: "In Louis van Gaal, we have secured the services of one of the outstanding managers in the game today. He has achieved many things in his career to date and Old Trafford provides him with a fitting stage on which to write new chapters in the Manchester United story."
Request from a very young Jose Mourinho: "Go easy on me, yeah?" http://t.co/lor240RJhA pic.twitter.com/R1JyvB2Bza— Mirror Football (@MirrorFootball) May 19, 2014
"Everyone is very excited about this new phase in the club's history. His track record of success in winning leagues and cups across Europe throughout his career makes him the perfect choice for us.
"People know him as a larger than life character but I have also been extremely impressed by his intelligence, thoughtful approach to the role and his diligence. I'm looking forward to working with him.
"I'm delighted that Louis has chosen Ryan as his assistant. Ryan's association with the club spans over two decades and his knowledge and stature will be of great use to Louis. In addition, this is a fantastic opportunity for Ryan to learn his trade alongside a world-class manager whose attacking instincts and belief in youth are tailor-made for Manchester United."
"It was always a wish for me to work in the Premier League. To work as a manager for Manchester United, the biggest club in the world, makes me very proud.
"I have managed in games at Old Trafford before and know what an incredible arena Old Trafford is and how passionate and knowledgeable the fans are.
"This club has big ambitions; I too have big ambitions. Together I'm sure we will make history."
"I am thrilled to have the chance to serve as assistant manager.
"Louis van Gaal is a world-class coach and I know I will learn a lot about coaching from being able to observe and contribute at such close quarters.
"Manchester United has been a huge part of my life and I'm delighted to be able to continue that relationship in such a key role."
Some facts and figures on Van Gaal in video form? Voila:
Want to see the best images from Louis van Gaal's career as a player and a manager? To see how he's evolved from a sprightly Sparta Rotterdam player into one of the continent's most respected bosses?
Louis van Gaal will demand absolute and singular mandate over the men he'll control, cajole, tutor and manage. The buck will stop with him and therefore intrusion from those who face no consequence will be unwelcome.
Whereas a wide-eyed David Moyes was in submissive debt and awe of his king-making predecessor, Van Gaal owes no one any favour. His appointment is based on an impressive track record and a hard-earned reputation, it is not based on how sycophantically he guffawed at wine-fuelled anecdotes or where his dad was born.
How long have they have this image saved on their hard drive?
New manager, new era. Retweet to show your support for Louis van Gaal. #vangaalmufc pic.twitter.com/8dClbOUIjx— Manchester United (@ManUtd) May 19, 2014
In an exclusive interview with MirrorFootball, Peter Schmeichel explained why Van Gaal is just the kind of coach Manchester United need:
"He's the kind of manager you need: a self-assured guy who the players look at and think: 'He's the boss, he's in charge, and if we want to be here we have to follow him'."
Louis Van Gaal has finally been confirmed as the man entrusted with the task of rousing Manchester United from their worst season for a quarter of a century.
The Dutch boss is the man United have turned to following the 10-month debacle of the David Moyes tenure, and he will begin work as soon as Holland's World Cup campaign has come to an end.
Louis van Gaal is confident to say the least... http://t.co/0fX88vBE4U pic.twitter.com/8BEcIzgjwg— Mirror Football (@MirrorFootball) May 19, 2014
Of course, van Gaal has been working discreetly behind the scenes with United ahead of the official announcement of his appointment, informing the Old Trafford hierarchy of who wants and doesn't want when he takes over on July 14.
That date will see van Gaal take his first United training session, when those players who were not involved in the World Cup report back for pre-season, with the squad jetting off to Los Angeles five days later for the start of the club's three-week tour of the US.
With no European football following United's calamitous seventh-placed finish, their worst in Premier League history, van Gaal's immediate task will be to restore the 20-times champions' domestic standing before re-asserting their status on the European stage.
Here's a look at the trophies Van Gaal has won in his first season: http://t.co/tJrzAlI6Sl #SST pic.twitter.com/t6YSx22rpl— Sky Sports Football (@SkyFootball) May 19, 2014
Turning United into challengers for a top-four place, let alone title contenders, will come at a price, with van Gaal poised to oversee a £150million spend this summer on rebuilding the squad, with the teams at the top of the Premier League certain to strengthen, making it more imperative the deposed champions invest heavily on reinforcements.
Southampton's Luke Shaw is set to join United in a deal worth up to £30m, while Borussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels and Bayern Munich's Toni Kroos are also high on Van Gaal and United's wish-list.

Hilarious 3min shorts. Watch the original series first, these are much better if you know what they are about; I can only expect confusion if you haven't! The writing is just someone pooping on a page, but its the best kind of poop one can poop on a page. Probably the best extras I've ever seen. MUST WATCH!
What I Liked: Cute background art. Nice premise and great pacing, despite its short runtime.
What I Didn't: Character animation is sometimes shamefully uneven.
Final Verdict: An amusing set of shorts that doesn't add a whole lot to the Jintai continuum but is still a fun little time waster anyway. Carries the same silly mood of the series, and shows the Mediator at probably her least sardonic.
Taking into consideration the runtime that can mean either two episodes of Popee the Performer, one shitfuck episode of Funny Pets or two (At this time of writing) episodes of specials-
It retains all the delightful charm and crazy of the original anime while following a plot for 3 minute bites! Now that's quality. Adding the fact that it retains all the animation and style of the source material with the same brand of comedy and you got yourself a worthwhile few minutes that act as short episodes of the original stuff. What I'm trying to say is that it's pretty damn similiar to the original stuff instead of it being some nonsensical shit. And at this point, you should be watching it.
Sometimes specials aren't worth it but this special is. Or specials. This one deserves a needless shout-out because it's so good.

Chocolate Peppermint Whoopie PiesBy Jennifer McHenry on March 2, 2015For this month's cookie of the month, I feel like I'm cheating a little bit. Whoopie pies always make me think of cookies.

MLB notebook: Former Mets GM Cashen dies at 88
Pirates/MLB Videos
Frank Cashen, the general manager who wore a signature bow tie and fashioned a Mets team that rollicked its way to the 1986 World Series championship, died Monday. The team said he was 88.
He died at Memorial Hospital in Easton, Md., after a short illness, the Mets said.
Cashen was a longtime sports writer in his Baltimore hometown and went to law school before joining the Orioles and eventually becoming their GM.
The Orioles won two titles while Cashen worked for them, but it was in New York where he put his stamp on a franchise with the likes of Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden.
In recent years, Cashen spent his time in Easton and in Port St. Lucie, Fla., where the Mets hold spring training. He was in camp with the Mets this year.
"One of the great baseball people," Mets manager Terry Collins said Monday.
Orioles' Machado gets 5-game ban
Orioles third baseman Manny Machado began serving a five-game suspension, nearly three weeks after MLB initially levied the sentence and five days after his appeal hearing.
Machado was suspended and fined on June 10 for intentionally throwing his bat on the field during an at-bat in Baltimore's game against Oakland on June 8. Machado immediately appealed the suspension, and spoke for about an hour Wednesday in an appeal hearing in Baltimore with MLB official Joe Garagiola Jr.
The initial decision was upheld, meaning Machado will miss the Orioles' four-game series against visiting Texas that began Monday, along with Friday night's game in Boston.
Nats reinstate OF Harper from DL
The Nationals reinstated Bryce Harper from the 15-day disabled list after the star outfielder missed 59 games because of a torn ligament in his left thumb.
The team made the move before Monday night's game against Colorado. It was Bryce Harper bobblehead night at Nationals Park.
To make room for Harper, the Nationals optioned left-handed reliever Xavier Cedeno to Triple-A Syracuse.
The 21-year-old Harper was hitting .289 with one home run and nine RBIs in 22 games before getting hurt. He played five rehabilitation games in the minors and hit .643, including three homers in a Double-A game over the weekend.
Cedeno pitched in one game during his third stint in the majors this season. He threw a scoreless inning on Saturday against the Chicago Cubs.
Signed ticket from Gehrig retirement hits auction
A ticket stub signed by Lou Gehrig on July 4, 1939 — the day he retired from baseball — is going on the auction block.
Heritage Auctions in New York says more than 60,000 tickets to the game at Yankee Stadium were sold. Only two are known to have survived.
Of the two, only the mezzanine box ticket was signed by Gehrig. It's estimated to bring over $100,000 at the Aug. 1 sale in Cleveland.
The owner is an unidentified collector.
Gehrig retired after being diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, now known as Lou Gehrig's disease. In his farewell speech that day, he said, "I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the Earth."
Heritage's director of sports memorabilia, Chris Ivy, calls it "the most significant baseball ticket in the world."
Royals sign 42-year-old Ibanez
The Royals signed 42-year-old outfielder Raul Ibanez, nine days after he was released by the Angels.
Ibanez batted just .157 in 57 games for the Angels, but 10 of his 26 hits were for extra bases. He spent three seasons with the Royals, starting in 2001. This is his fifth team Since 2011. Ibanez hit 29 home runs just last year for Seattle.
Astros hacked for trade info
The Astros said they were the victims of hackers who accessed their servers and published months of internal trade talks on the Internet.
General manager Jeff Luhnow said "it was an illegal activity and we're going to pursue it and try and find out who did it and prosecute."
He said they learned of the breach about a month ago. The team responded after the website Deadspin.com published a story about the breach.
Among the items involved talks with Miami to trade 2012 top overall pick Carlos Correa and rookie George Springer for Marlins star slugger Giancarlo Stanton.
Former Dodgers pitcher Castillo dies at 59
Bobby Castillo, a former Dodgers and Twins pitcher credited with teaching Fernando Valenzuela how to throw a screwball, died in a Los Angeles hospital after a battle with cancer, the team announced. He was 59.
Castillo, also affectionately known as "Babo," pitched for the Dodgers from 1977-81, including in the 1981 National League Championship Series and the 1981 World Series, and in 1985, his last season in the majors. The right-hander was with the Twins from 1982 to 1984.
Valenzuela called Castillo a great teammate and friend in a statement released through the Dodgers, adding: "I'll always be grateful for his influence on my pitching."
Castillo made his major league debut for the Dodgers on Sept. 19, 1977, retiring Hall of Famer Johnny Bench for his first big league out.
Around the league
The Rockies' beleaguered starting rotation took another blow as right-hander Jhoulys Chacin was placed on the 15-day disabled list with an inflamed shoulder. … Former major league pitcher Joel Pineiro was suspended 50 games after testing positive for a banned stimulant. … The Twins reinstated third baseman Trevor Plouffe and utilityman Eduardo Nunez from the disabled list.

Seniors and Law Enforcement Providing Assistance to an Aging Population
Van Horn, Stan, The FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin
People 65 years of age or older make up approximately 12.4 percent (36. million) of the U.S. population. (2) By 2030, this figure will rise to about 20 percent (71.5 million). By 2010, the number of citizens 85 years of age and over will expand to more than 30 percent to 5.8 million. Further, the senior population in several states will substantially outpace the national rate by 2025. They will live in assisted, unassisted, and conventional communities, as well as shared and supported housing. (3) Cities and counties throughout the United States should expect a larger elderly population and the creation of more retirement facilities in their jurisdictions.
Seniors are living much longer than former generations, and their number continues to grow. Although older adults face far lower risks of becoming victims than any other age group, they consider fear of crime as one of their predominant concerns. (4) Research has revealed that 20 percent of elderly people report being afraid to go out alone in their neighborhood. (5) Studies related to the phenomenon of the fear of crime show that feelings of vulnerability among seniors typically originate from their perception of safety within their own communities. (6) Such apprehension can undermine their sense of control and present a powerful disincentive to leave their homes. "Law enforcement must understand that the fear of crime often reduces the quality of life more than the actual crime itself. ... Fear of crime in extreme cases can immobilize the elderly who may shut themselves in their residences and shun all outside contacts with people." (7)
Law enforcement professionals must understand the influence these individuals will exercise in their communities, as well as how they perceive their world. Consequently, leaders will face new challenges; a considerable amount of services and resources will be required. What will agencies need to provide to these communities? What type of training will address these concerns? How will this increased need for services affect the rest of the community? Will the crime rate in a jurisdiction rise or fall as a result of additional retirement communities? What existing or future technologies can departments utilize to provide the best service to senior citizens?
As the retired population continues to increase in number and age, law enforcement leaders should listen to and seriously consider the concerns of older members of their communities. In Claremont, California, a city of approximately 35,000 residents located 35 miles east of Los Angeles, people 65 years of age and older have a significant voice. City agencies recognized the influence, importance, and value of their current and growing retirement communities. To that end, they created liaison positions to Claremont's Committee on Aging, which is comprised of residents from retirement communities (Claremont has 10 within its jurisdiction) and representatives from religious organizations, senior citizen programs, colleges, and various volunteer agencies. The committee addresses the city council on a regular basis. Personnel from the police and human services departments and city council work closely with the committee to assess needs and provide information and assistance. For example, the Claremont Police Department and the Committee on Aging have developed educational programs on personal and Internet safety, fraudulent schemes, and elder abuse prevention, regularly conducting them throughout the community. These relationships and approaches have established a close bond between seniors and law enforcement personnel, creating a greater feeling of safety among elders.
Strategic Plan and Vision
As a result of this extensive collaboration between seniors and the Claremont Police Department, the agency created a strategic plan and vision to address the increasing number of older citizens in its jurisdiction: "Through innovative, creative, and service-oriented planning, the department will find the necessary resources to carry out educational and training programs and the technology to increase the level of services to retirement communities while maintaining or increasing the level of services to the remainder of the Claremont community. …

Hello Marcos,
according to MSME 8 product guide, anti-phishing filtering is achieved using anti-spam rules (p.99) so other than making sure you perform anti-spam and anti-phish filtering in a policy (i.e they are "Activated", p.99) and the policy is applicable to your mail flow and making sure the size of mail under which anti.spam filtering is to take place is properly set, not to mention the Low, Medium and High scores are okay, the actions are restrictive enough for each level, I see little chance to finetune it even more.
Could you double-check that all these are properly set in your configuration (the way you wanted them to be set) and the policy is applicable to the mail flow ?

Washington is betwixt and between when it comes to constructing a strategy for dealing with Beijing.
Over the course of my lifetime, the United States has supported Chinese Nationalists during the Chinese Civil War; fought 'commies' in Korea; reached a 'Nixon goes to China' rapprochement, playing a 'China card' against the Cold War USSR; and watched an incredible Chinese economic surge, making Beijing the manufacturer for the world.
Now Chinese military construction and verbal aggression appear directed at obtaining pre-eminence in East Asia, disconcerting U.S. allies in the region and challenging the United States' long taken-for-granted hegemony.
The U.S. needs a put-China-back-in-the-box foreign policy approach.
That mentality has resulted in our much-discussed 'pivot' on Asia. Unfortunately, it has led us to—if not drowning in Pacific complexities—a pudding without any theme that would equate to coherent, coordinated, allied policy toward dealing with China.

The PIT game is not that important unless GB loses prior to then.

Pakistanis bust with perlemoenComment on this story
Kimberley - Two men were arrested in Kimberley after they were found in possession of perlemoen (abalone) with an estimated value of R76 000, Northern Cape police said on Wednesday.
"Police received a tip-off about a bakkie travelling on the N12 from Cape Town to Kimberley," said Lt Olebogeng Tawana.
"Upon patrolling and blocking all roads leading into Kimberley, they stopped the bakkie and discovered three black refuse bags filled with abalone weighing 76kg loaded in the back."
The two men, who are Pakistani nationals aged 31 and 40, are expected to appear in the Kimberley Magistrate's Court on Friday to face charges of illegal possession of perlemoen.

Tax Refund Options
File Online
(Virginia Beach,VA ) Liberty Tax Service will reward volunteers who work with non-profit groups and charities by offering them free tax preparation the week of March 28-April 4 at participating locations. All individuals who work with scouting and youth organizations, health non-profits, food banks and other charities are eligible for tax fee cuts at Liberty Tax offices if they are first-time customers. Call 866-871-1040 to be directly connected to the nearest Liberty Tax location.
"Lots of people are trying to make a difference by volunteering to help their communities in positive ways," said John Hewitt, CEO of Liberty Tax Service. "Liberty Tax Service wants to let them know that their efforts and contributions are important."(Virginia Beach, VA) The end is in sight for taxpayers who faced filing delays due to the round of tax extenders and Tax Relief Act of 2010. The IRS is ready to start accepting those returns February 14. The delays affected those who itemize deductions and file Schedule A and these forms:
· Form 8917 Tuition and Fees Deduction
· Form 4684 Casualties and Thefts
Taxpayers will have a few extra days to file this year. The filing deadline will be Monday, April 18, 2011 because the holiday, Emancipation Day is Friday, April 15. This holiday is observed in the District of Columbia, so federal workers will be off that day.
"Liberty Tax will work diligently to incorporate every late-breaking change and IRS processing adjustment to streamline filing for our customers," noted John Hewitt, CEO of Liberty Tax Service.
Liberty Tax is offering extended hours of service at participating locations for the rush of early filers.

Communities without electricityComment on this story
Bloemfontein -
Two rural Free State communities were without electricity on Wednesday afternoon because of the weather, Eskom said.
Sterkfontein and Swinburn, near Harrismith, had power failures, provincial spokeswoman Stefanie Jansen van Rensburg said.
Forty-six Eskom customers in Sterkfontein and 183 in the Swinburn region were affected.
"We will ensure that the electricity is restored as soon as possible."
However, snow in the areas was hindering Eskom teams in their search for the faults on the system.
Jansen van Rensburg said all electrical equipment in the areas should be considered live at all times because electricity could be switched on without notice. -Sapa

Get ready Philadelphia: the brand new Shake Shack Philadelphia opens today at 11 a.m. on the southwest corner of 20th and Sansom Streets in Rittenhouse Square. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
Happy Shake Shack Day, everybody!
Today, Wednesday, June 6, is the day you've all been waiting for — today's the day the brand new Shake Shack Philadelphia opens to the public at 20th and Sansom Streets in Rittenhouse Square.
Last week we gave you a sneak peek at the opening menu, but today we have something even better: sneak peek photos of what the Shack actually looks like, plus a few additional (and awesome) details to go with the images. Enjoy!
The magnet-based menu board is easily shifted around, so keep an eye out for rotating specials. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
First, a little background for the unacquainted. Danny Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group (USHG) is introducing its first Philadelphia Shake Shack right at 20th and Sansom Streets, right around the corner from Rittenhouse Square (perfect for burger-and-shake picnicking) and neighboring Village Whiskey, Tinto, Il Pittore, Melograno and Capogiro.
Shake Shack is a modern day "roadside" burger stand known for its delicious burgers, hot dogs, fries, shakes, frozen custard, beer, wine and more. It's a growing East Coast institution, so it's only fitting that we should have one of our own.
The Philadelphia menu (see the magnetic menu board above) includes all the Shake Shack classics, as well as several brand new items that are not only unique to Philly but also use Philly products.
Previously offered only as a special at other Shacks, the SmokeShack™ is making its debut as a permanent menu item. It's basically Shake Shack's version of a bacon burger; it's a juicy cheeseburger topped with Niman Ranch all-natural applewood smoked bacon, chopped cherry pepper and top secret ShackSauce.
Shake Shack will be pouring a rotating selection of local draft beers, including Victory and Yards varieties to kick things off, in addition to their own ShackMeister beer brewed in Brooklyn. The wine is from Frog's Leap in Napa, which you can order by the galss or half-bottle. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
The frozen custard and "Concretes" sections of the menu feature several Philadelphia-sourced ingredients. Third generation family-run bakery Termini Bros. is providing cannoli shells for the Liberty Shell. Philadelphia-founded coffee-roasting company La Colombe is featuring its coffee beans in the Rittenhouse 2. The Center City Pretzel is made with a Philly-style soft pretzel. AND Federal Donuts will be sourcing the donuts for the delicious Coffee and Donuts flavored custard.
And psst: the burgers are made with a Pat LaFrieda meat blend, one of the most esteemed purveyors in the business.
The dogs get in on it, too; Shake Shack has two special items for pups. Pooch-ini® is a concoction of ShackBurger® dog biscuits, peanut butter sauce and vanilla custard. Bag O'Bones is a handful of ShackBurger dog biscuits, to go.
The Shack also doesn't mess around when it comes to drinks. First of all, can we just talk about how cool it is that you'll be able to chow down on a delicious burger, crispy French fries and a cold craft beer all in a super casual setting at any time of the day?
But it's not just any beer. Shake Shack will be pouring a rotating selection of local draft beers, starting of with Victory Prima Pils and Yards Philadelphia Pale Ale, in addition to their own ShackMeister beer brewed by Brooklyn Brewery. The wine is from Frog's Leap in Napa, which you can order by the glass or half-bottle.
Read on for a lot more about the brand new Philadelphia Shake Shack opening today at 11 a.m.
The 'Custard Calendar' shows a daily rotating lineup of custard flavors, including Coffee & Donuts made with crumbled pieces of donuts from none other than Federal Donuts. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
Logistically, Shake Shack has their stuff down, too. They're very experienced with crowd control (have you ever been to their Madison Square Park location, the original Shack? That line can snake around half the park…), so they'll be expediting the surefire lines like pros. Outside, there's a Shake Shack hospitality manager helping you navigate where to stand and answering any ordering questions you may have.
Inside, there are two lines: the C-Line for cold items only (custard, shakes, drinks) and the main line for all other items. To the left of the main vestibule where you order there is a row of hightops and a glass window into the kitchen on your right, leading back to the main dining area, which seats 62 total.
Who wouldn't want to drink out of these bad boys, stamped with the Shake Shack house beer, brewed in Brooklyn? There's a whole line of Shake swag you can pick up. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
The food and drinks alone would be enough. But that's not all. Known nearly as much for its community outreach efforts as its burgers and frozen custard, Shake Shack is also proud to partner with the Mural Arts Program. A portion of sales (5%) from the Center City Pretzel concrete will benefit the Mural Arts Program. Very cool.
Shake Shack is also widely recognized for its green architecture and eco-conscious practices. Accordingly, this location was constructed from recycled and sustainable materials. The bricks throughout were reclaimed from old Pennsylvania steel mills, and the chairs and booths feature lumber certified by the Forestry Stewardship Council.
The tabletops were sourced from reclaimed bowling alley lanes and the walls from reclaimed wooden barn siding. You'll also notice a living green wall being assembled on the southern front of the building. These people have thought of everything.
Shake Shack prides itself on its eco-friendliness. Look out for a living green wall being assembled on the southern side of the building. (Photo by M. Edlow for GPTMC)
Another cool element is the music. Each song that plays at Shake Shack is painstakingly hand-picked by the Shake team, and leans heavily toward local bands. Listen for Cheers Elephant, Free Energy and Chiddy Bang.
And just when we thought it couldn't possible get any better, outdoor seating will flank the 20th Street side of Shake Shack, accommodating 36 additional seats once the zoning is approved in another week or two.
Mayor Nutter was on hand last night for the official ribbon cutting ceremony; the doors will officially open to the public today at 11 a.m.!!
It's on!

A great day for Philly! Good quality food now on hand that can be casually enjoyed. And a very environmentally green friendly company, too. Open until 11:00 pm-it's breaking through the resistance for city residents to hide inside. There's now a place to go after dark that's not an expensive long sit down dinner. In fact, most of those restaurants will have been closed by 10:00!
I'm not particularly hating on this place as much as I am shaking my head, but if your whole "schtick" is being environmentally friendly and using recycled materials but you don't have ONE vegan option, you're a hypocrite. For cripest sake, it's 2012, even FIVE GUYS has a veggie burger, and they unsustainably source their potatoes out from the middle of the country every day. How can you say this place is green-friendly and breakthrough when they don't provide a universal option?
I think you guys mean Chiddy Bang, the two man rap group originally from the Philly area who also went to Drexel.
My Wife & I can't wait to try Shake Shack
Hey Taryn – You should try Shake Shack's Shroom Burger. It's a portobello mushroom with cheese inside. I guess it's vegetarian and not necessarily vegan, but it's still super good!

Connie Britton, 44, Shows Off Incredible Bikini Body
It's hard to believe that Connie Britton will be turning 45 in just a few weeks.
PHOTOS: Winter's sexiest beach bodies
The American Horror Story star proved she still has the body of a twenty-something when she lounged beachside at the Four Seasons Resort Nevis last week. The actress wore two bikinis -- one printed, one turquoise -- and noshed on fresh fruit during the Caribbean getaway.
How does Britton stay in such fabulous shape? "I'm in an environment where I have a lot of information about how to stay healthy and live a good life," she once told Redbook. I love vegan and raw food and I love to exercise."
PHOTOS: Celebs' hot bikini style
"If I weren't in this business, I think I would be aging differently," said Britton, who adopted son Eyob from Ethiopia in 2011. "I'm fortunate because, for whatever reason, I've never looked at myself as, 'Oh, my gosh, I have to be the most beautiful.' I've always worked from the inside out, not the outside in."

Re: Hyperlink to SDE feature class attachmentlakewoodbeacon Mar 16, 2012 7:01 AM (in response to nbatool)I am wondering this as well. Is there a way to batch export the photos out of the attachment file and download to the pc? Not doing each attachment one-by-one?
Also, can I create a relationship between an attachment file and a new feature class and have it act like the original relationship between the old feature class and the attachment? i.e. will the new feature class display the attachments in the html pop-up? A little testing seems like this doesn't work, but maybe I configured the relationship class incorrectly.
Re: Hyperlink to SDE feature class attachmentnbatool Mar 22, 2012 3:06 AM (in response to nbatool)Hi Laura,
Any luck trying to export the attachments? I'm also struggling with the relationship classes. Can't seem to get the configuration right in order to get my feature class to acknowledge the feature attachments table. How frustrating!
Re: Hyperlink to SDE feature class attachmentlakewoodbeacon Mar 23, 2012 12:37 PM (in response to nbatool)No luck on my end either. Esri usually seems swift at posting on these forums, so let's hope we can get an answer soon!
Re: Hyperlink to SDE feature class attachmentocplanning Apr 16, 2012 7:32 AM (in response to nbatool)I am having the same problem.
Re: Hyperlink to SDE feature class attachmentmatteitrem May 10, 2012 6:40 AM (in response to nbatool)Try using the rest endpoint of the map service to query a feature that has an attachment using object id as the query and * as all fields. In the HTML results click on the link of the returned object id, scroll to the bottom and click on the Attachment Infos or HTML Popup in the child resources. There you will see a link to the attached document, use the construct of the url to build a link to the attachment "http://<yourserver>/ArcGIS/rest/services/<servicename>/MapServer/0/{OBJECTID}/attachments/{ID}" or "http://<yourserver>/ArcGIS/rest/services/<servicename>/MapServer/0/{OBJECTID}/htmlPopup". The link can be used in the <description> via the <![CDATA[]]/> tag in a popup configuration xml file for flexviewer.
This should work, as I use this method to access related records.
