Palladino: VanDerLaan wins State Junior golf crown
WATERTOWN -- He went wire to wire, I mean, really, wire to wire. John VanDerLaan had the first tee time on qualifying day in the CSGA's 71st Connecticut Junior golf championship Monday. He stuck his tee in the ground at 7:30 a.m. at Watertown Golf Club, and went out and earned co-medalist honors with an even par 71.
Three days later, VanDerLaan made par on the 17th green and clinched the 2012 Junior title.
VanDerLaan, who plays out of Heritage Village, had his nose out front from first tee time to last, and Thursday he clinched the title with a 3 and 1 victory over Patrick Hallisey of Wethersfield and Shuttle Meadow Country Club. VanDerLaan is the second Heritage Village golfer to win the Junior. Mark Matza was Junior champ in 2001.
Few golfers have dominated the Junior like VanDerLaan, a Pomperaug High junior, did this year. Allow me to freshen up the numbers we gave you after the semifinal round:
For 94 holes of golf over four days VanDerLaan played Watertown at 7 over par, and remember, that includes two long, grueling days playing two matches each.
Over 76 total holes of match-play, VanDerLaan trailed a grand total of six holes. He held the lead for 57 of those 76 holes.
Once VanDerLaan got in front, he stayed in front.
Thursday was particularly tough, however. VanDerLaan had a dodgy start. He missed a four-foot birdie putt on the first green, and a three-foot par saver on the second.
See JUNIORS, Page 3C
VanDerLaan started the day as though he wanted to gift the title to Hallisey.
"I knew that after I missed those two that I gave him two shots that I shouldn't have given him," VanDerLaan said. "I couldn't give him any more. It helped me," he added, "and got me more focused. I didn't miss any more of them."
VanDerLaan wasted no time on the re-focus. He took control on the third hole and dictated play to the end. He made par out of the sand on No. 3, while Hallisey missed the fairway and made bogey. VanDerLaan got all square when he parred No. 5, and Hallisey made bogey out of the sand.
VanDerLaan won No. 6 when he got up and down for par again, and Hallisey made bogey again. In three holes VanDerLaan went from 2 down to 1 up, and you never again had the sense that Hallisey could get even, let alone out front.
"I didn't want to get defensive," Hallisey said after he grabbed that early lead. "I wanted to get more aggressive and get a bigger lead, and that was kind of bad."
Hallisey said his driver was not his favorite club all week, and that stayed true in the final. "I had a couple of wayward drives, and that got (VanDerLaan) three holes in a row."
VanDerLaan got to 2 up when Hallisey three-putt the 10th green, and it could have been worse, as VanDerLaan zeroed in on hole locations. A six-foot birdie putt hung on the lip on the ninth green, and a 10-foot bird on 11 lipped out.
Hallisey made note of all of that.
"He's very good, very consistent, fairway to green," Hallisey said of VanDerLaan. "Whenever he missed the green I had to expect that he would get up and down."
VanDerLaan did that most every time. He won 15 with par to go dormie. Hallisey won 16 with birdie, but VanDerLaan closed things out on 17 when he cozied up his birdie putt to put an end to the title fight, 3 and 1.
"This is the best finish I've had," said VanDerLaan, who is a teenager of few words, even after a championship win. "This is the first time I've won a pretty big tournament."
VanDerLaan has known previous success in the Junior. He has played the event since he was 13. At 14 he made match play. At 15 he got into the second round. At 16 he is champion. And to answer your question: Yes, he is young enough to play again in 2013.
"I am very excited, and I hope to come back and defend my title," he said.
And a side note: Hallisey is also eligible to play in 2013.
Fellas, see you back at Watertown in 51 weeks.

Legislative Session Began January 5, 2015-this is the beginning of a 2-year bill cycle.
During the first part of a new bill cycle ANA\C Legislative Committee works to review all proposed bills and select those they will Support, Sponsor, Watch, or Oppose. Once the committee has determined their course of action, those bills will be posted here.
You can learn about the various actions the Legislative Committee takes. If you are interested in serving on the Legislative Committee, please contact Liz Dietz.

Amendments added to bill does the following:
This bill would eliminate the exemption from existing specified immunization requirements based upon personal beliefs, but would allow exemption from future immunization requirements deemed appropriate by the State Department of Public Health for either medical reasons or personal beliefs. This The bill would exempt pupils in a home-based private school and students enrolled in an independent study program pursuant to specified law from the prohibition described above. The bill would narrow the authorization for temporary exclusion from a school or other institution to make it applicable only to a child who has been exposed to a specified disease and whose documentary proof of immunization status does not show proof of immunization against one of the diseases described above. The bill would make conforming changes to related provisions
Six hostile amendments
Senator Morrell
Parent signs, under penalty of perjury, a statement that the vaccines violate my person religious beliefs.
Senator Moorlach
Amendment to allow children to go to school without vaccinations.
Senator Anderson
In committee they were told that no immunization had fetal cells. It was disclosed this was incorrect. This amendment would require a doctor to review the contents with the parent or guardian of all their concerns. The doctor and patient signs a document stating the information was been shared.
We need 95% of population immunized to protect the public.
MMR controversy started with a faulty study in England that linked autism to vaccines. He was caught manipulating the data for a lawsuit and he lost his license.
Religious exemption was primary concern.
Bill passed on a partisan vote ayes 25 nos 10.
Update AB 890: Anesthesia Assistants (AA)
As of May 13th this bill is on suspense. The author waived presentation and AB 890 is now on suspense in the appropriations committee. From the authors perspective, this does not give the opposition (us) a chance to make our case. The only issue in appropriations is the cost to the state. CANA solicited the cost of regulation CRNA's and submitted this as an example of the cost.
Any bill that has a cost of more than 350,000 is put on suspense. The suspense bills are reviewed by leadership and the chairperson of Approps and Budget and they decide which bills will be allowed to pass out. A hearing will be held which will go through all the suspense bills, with no testimony, letting us know if the bill will be held in suspense or moved.
AB 890: Anesthesia Assistants (AA)
This bill creates a new health care provider, Anesthesia Assistant, that can provide anesthesia under the license of an anesthesiologist. The California Nurse Anesthetist are very opposed. This bill would allow an anesthesiologist to supervise AA's and provide anesthesia in multiple rooms. Of concern for every RN is this position will permit them to do everything an RN can do in the operating room. The description is an RN's license authority.
Here are some documents information you of this issue

SB 466: Board of Registered Nursing (BRN)
Every 5 years the BRN goes through a Sunset process. This means a bill must pass to Sunrise the Board so it can continue for another 5 years. The Board has had a rough time the last number of years which has only been compounded by the implementation of a new computer program that has increased the time to complete their work!
Your Assembly Member and Senator need to hear from you that Nurses want the BRN to Sunrise for another 5-years. We also ask that any political issue be left out of the bill and be dealt with in policy bills. Please support the BRN and write a letter today. You can locate your Assembly Senate Member at www.leginfo.ca.gov

The National Nurse Act of 2015:
The American Nurses Association (ANA) supports the National Nurse Act of 2015, H.R. 379. The bill was introduced on January 14 by Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX) in the newly convened 114th Congress.
H.R. 379 would designate the same individual serving as the Chief Nurse Officer (CNO) of the Public Health Service as the National Nurse for Public Health. ANA recognizes the importance of raising visibility for nursing and the Public Health Service and applauds the intention of the legislation.
The current bill reflects dialogue and agreement between ANA and the National Nurse Network Organization (NNNO) to address ANA's concerns about earlier versions of the bill that had been introduced in previous Congresses. ANA President Pam Cipriano, PhD, RN, NEA-BC, FAAN, fostered dialogue over several months among key stakeholders to arrive at this modified language.
The language of the 2015 bill addresses some concerns that have been raised in the past. For example, the bill provides for elevation in rank for the CNO, includes a report to Congress on the Commissioned Corps Nursing Category, and achieves a stronger focus on the role of the CNO in advocating for programs in public health and advising on policy.
Additionally, ANA is currently developing its legislative and regulatory priorities for the 114th Congress. These priorities include introduction of legislation to address safe patient handling and mobility, safe nurse staffing and removal of barriers to practice for advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs). These priorities are guided and informed by ANA's strategic plan and input from its constituent and state nurses associations.
ANA Legislative Priorities:
Review the Legislative Priorities established by ANA\for the 114th Congress.

How a bill becomes a law A nice graphic demonstrates this process
"A bill is a proposal to change, repeal, or add to existing state law. An Assembly Bill (AB) is one introduced in the Assembly; a Senate Bill (SB), in the Senate.
Bills are designated by number, in the order of introduction in each house. For example, AB 16 refers to the sixteenth bill introduced in the Assembly. The numbering starts afresh each session. There may be one or more "extraordinary" sessions. The bill numbering starts again for each of these. For example, the third bill introduced in the Assembly for the second extraordinary session is ABX2 3. The name of the author, the legislator who introduced the bill, becomes part of the title of the bill.
The legislative procedure, is divided into distinct stages:
- Drafting. The procedure begins when a Senator or Assembly Member decides to author a bill. A legislator sends the idea for the bill to the California Office of the Legislative Counsel, where it is drafted into bill form. The draft of the bill is returned to the legislator for introduction.
- Introduction or First Reading. A bill is introduced or read the first time when the bill number, the name of the author, and the descriptive title of the bill are read on the floor of the house. The bill is then sent to the Office of State Publishing. No bill except the Budget Bill may be acted upon until 30 days have passed from the date of its introduction.
- Committee hearing. After introduction, a bill goes to the rules committee of the house, where it is assigned to the appropriate policy committee, appropriate to the subject matter, for its first hearing. During the committee hearing the author presents the bill to the committee, and testimony may be heard in support or opposition to the bill. The committee then votes on whether to pass the bill out of committee, or that it be passed as amended. Bills may be amended several times. It takes a majority vote of the committee membership for a bill to be passed and sent to the next committee or to the floor.
- Fiscal committee. If the bill which contains an appropriation or has financial implications for the state.
- Second reading. A bill recommended for passage by committee is read a second time on the floor of the house. Ordinarily there is little or no debate. If a bill is amended at this stage, it may be referred back for another committee hearing.
- Floor vote. A roll call vote is taken. An ordinary bill needs a majority vote to pass . An urgency bill or a bill with tax increases requires a two-thirds vote. The California Constitution used to require a 2/3 vote of both houses on the yearly budget and on any bill which would increase taxes, but since the passage of California Proposition 25 (2010), the 2/3 vote is only required for tax increases. Before, this provision was faulted for much of what had been termed "legislative gridlock", enabling a minority of legislators to block approval of the budget by the mandated July 31 deadline.
- Second house. If it receives a favorable vote in the first house, a bill repeats the same steps in the other house. If the second house passes the bill without changing it, it is sent to the governor's desk.
- Resolution of Differences (concurrence or conference). If a measure is amended in the second house and passed, it is returned to the house of origin for consideration of amendments. The house of origin may concur with the amendments and send the bill to the governor or reject the amendments and submit it to a two-house conference committee. If either house rejects the conference report, a second (and even a third) conference committee can be formed. If both houses adopt the conference report, the bill is sent to the governor.
- Governor's action. Within 12 days after receiving a bill, the governor may sign it into law, allow it to become law without his/her signature, or veto it.
- Overrides. A vetoed bill is returned to the house of origin, where a vote may be taken to override the governor's veto; a two-thirds vote of both houses is required to override a veto.
- California Law and effective date. Each bill that is passed by the Legislature and approved by the Governor is assigned a chapter number by the Secretary of State. These chaptered bills are statutes, and ordinarily become part of the California Codes. Ordinarily a law passed during a regular session takes effect January 1 of the following year. A few statutes go into effect as soon as the governor signs them; these include acts calling for elections and urgency measures necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety."

text: Hi guys To me I sound stupid, but I'm probably just overthinking the question. I know acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s/s. But if the distance is less than a metre or takes less than a second, wouldn't the acceleration be less than 9.8? If so, how is that worked out? If not, then is it correct to say that if something falls for a distance of 0.7m and comes to a stop, the acceleration is still 9.8m/s/s?

On Saturday the cat came home and so I said "are you gonna give the cat away?" And DH says "yea probably, I can go visit him if I change my mind" I then said "well, what is this persons name? It's weird talking about someone without knowing anything about them and you keep referring to them as "they"
DH would generally refer to this Co-worker as either "they" like "they said they wanted a cat." except for the conversation when DH described them to me as a "he"
Well yea, I'm sure you guessed it, "his" name is Amanda and "they" are a girl. I assumed it from jump, and while I don't suspect, I don't get why he referred to her as a guy.
Anyone have any thoughts on why he would have lied? I've never been jealous or disliked his female Co-workers. I've always been cool about everything because we're married and pregnant and I felt secure. The cat is not going anywhere at this point.
Sorry if this is confusing.

Alternate title: A Nice Plate of Spinach, What Would You Say to Some Spinach?
Popeye the Sailor might have given whole-hearted endorsement to the Czech comedy What Would You Say to Some Spinach? (Coz Takhle Dat Si Spenat). A genial crazy scientist invents a rejuvenating machine, which is promptly stolen by the owner of a beauty salon. While the machine is successful in bringing youth to old customers, it isn't quite perfect so far as removing wrinkles. In fact, instead of shrinking wrinkles, it shrinks people. The machine is 100% successful only on those who have recently dined on a hearty bowl of spinach. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The event is being coordinated as a fundraiser for the Durhamville Volunteer Fire Department. The show, which is suitable for an 18 and older crowd, was the brain child of Durhamville Fire Lieutenant Jim Brown.
"We wanted the community to come out for a night of laughter and who can't use that these days," remarked Brown. "I viewed some of Dave's routines on his web site, this guy is really hysterical."
Advance Sale tickets for the show are $20 or $25 at the door. Adult refreshments will be served by the Rusty Rail in Canastota. Tickets can be purchased at Mike's Oneida Seafood 128 North Main St. Oneida, Bridgette's Hair & Tanning, next to Ralph's Collision at the five corners in Oneida or by logging on at www.davereilly.com.

All profits from the show go to support the Durhamville Fire Department. They're hoping the community will support this exciting event. The Durhamville Fire Dept. are the first responders to fires and accidents in their local area and back-up responders to other area fire fighters.

Editor's Note: This is the third part of a series examining different aspects of Bible translation, inspired by the recent controversy surrounding Wycliffe Bible Translators and its translation for a Muslim context. While The Christian Post series will not be focusing exclusively on the Wycliffe controversy, the topics in the series are related to the situation and are helpful to understanding the complicated nature of Bible translation.
Eminent New Testament scholar and Bible translator Daniel B. Wallace recently spoke with The Christian Post about his work with the New English Translation (NET), choosing beneficial translations and grappling with what he believes are some of the more harmful misconceptions, myths and lies about Bible translation.
Dr. Wallace is professor of New Testament Studies at Dallas Theological Seminary, where he has taught for more than 25 years, and is Executive Director of the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, established in 2002 for the purpose of digitizing Greek New Testament manuscripts. The New Testament scholar, whose Greek grammar textbook is used at seminaries across the U.S., has served as a consultant on four Bible translations, and most notably worked as the senior New Testament editor of the NET Bible — which he says is "the translation that translators like." more >>
Mark Burnett and Roma Downey have released the official trailer for their upcoming "Bible" series on Thursday.
Furthermore, the epic 10-part mini-series has received an airdate; "The Bible" will debut on the History Channel on Sunday, March 3.
With anticipation for the debut rising, Twitter users have sounded off about the trailer for "The Bible." more >>
An extremely rare version of the Bible, called the Bishop's Bible and printed more than 400 years ago, has been discovered and salvaged in England before it could be thrown out.
"It was rotting away in a cupboard, the wooden and leather covers covered in beetles. The pages were like blotting paper and didn't smell too good," Arthur Brooks, a church reader at St James' Church in Teignmouth told the Telegraph. The book was apparently about to be thrown out by the church, before Brooks recognized its significance and potential value.
The Bishop's Bible, only 70 copies of which are said to have been produced, was first printed in 1568 by the Church of England during the time of Queen Elizabeth I, only 30 years after the Church of England separated from the Vatican and established its own authority. more >>
A recently released Bible translation based off of the King James Bible boasts of being the first ever "Gay Bible" in the world.
Titled the Queen James Bible, its publishers argued in a statement that it accurately translates certain verses pertaining to homosexuality, which have been misunderstood by religious conservatives.
"Homosexuality was first overtly mentioned in the Bible in 1946 in the Revised Standard Version. There is no mention of or reference to homosexuality in any Bible prior to this – only interpretations have been made," said the editors. more >>
An organization of atheists and agnostics filed a lawsuit against a Pennsylvania state House resolution that declares 2012 the "Year of the Bible," claiming the measure violates the U.S. Constitution and requesting the court to "declare that the government is not 'Judeo-Christian.'" The resolution's sponsors, however, tell The Christian Post the lawsuit is without merit, and that it would be difficult to deny the Bible's impact on the U.S.
"The Bible had a tremendous impact on our founding, as well as on all of our leaders and our history," state Rep. Rick Saccone (R-Allegheny), the resolution's author, told CP Wednesday, noting Bible passages and imagery inscribed on government buildings. "The Bible is part of our culture," he added. "You can't deny the impact the Bible had on this country."
Annie Laurie Gaylor, the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF)'s co-president, insists the Bible has no bearing on the document used to govern the nation. "We have a perfectly Godless and secular Constitution," she told CP. "There's no Bible, no Jesus, no Holy Scripture in our Constitution." more >>
British Prime Minister David Cameron said in a recent speech that England must embrace its Christian roots and maintain moral practices in politics and finance.
"We are a Christian country and we should not be afraid to say so," he said at Christ Church in Oxford on Friday, Dec. 16.
Cameron was delivering a speech on the 400-year anniversary of the King James Bible, a fundamental part of British culture which he says "is a book that has not just shaped our country, but shaped the world." more >>

And there are a few more reasons why Canada spends less, she says.
Canada also has the advantage of enjoying bulk purchasing to obtain lower prices on drugs and devices, which reduces their cost to 40% of what American payers must shell out, she says. The cost of malpractice insurance is lower.
And, the same system pays for all care, including care required to deal with medical errors. "If you got injured while you were in the hospital, you'd know that your future healthcare costs would automatically be covered, so with a national healthcare insurance program you wouldn't have to sue providers to recover that," she says.
I acknowledge that Woolhandler and Himmelstein are controversial lefties. Their view of the world would eliminate health insurance plans and move the country to one source of payment for healthcare.
But given the fiscal cliff, sequestration, and the fact that healthcare spending takes up roughly 16% of our gross domestic product, their point may have some merit.
Medicare has worked well for 50 million people in the U.S. enrolled today. But the way it works is just too darn expensive.

Bloody, Violent, and Full of Promise
"God of War clone". Every action adventure game that looks even remotely like the God of War franchise must receive this label from everyone and then try to overcome it. The best thing I can say about Wolverine is that it does this. While the game certainly has its share of rough edges, it has some great ideas and I can't wait to see if they expand upon them in a sequel.
Quick Time Events and interactive cutscenes are common place in this genre, and Wolverine has a fresh take on them. The game does have some typical button mashing moments. These are fine, nothing too annoying, and sometimes are really badass and play off the Wolverine character very well (think pulling yourself off of a spike you've been impaled on).
The most interesting parts are brief but interesting segments that break up the normal gameplay. For example, sky diving moments where you can control Wolverine as he plummets through the air (this is sometimes basic but othertimes has you attacking and dodging projectiles). There are other moments where you are say, on the side of a helicopter and can attack an area and also must dodge gunfire from enemies in the helicopter.
These provide some awesome moments to watch and the great thing is that the gameplay is simple and doesn't get in the way of the action. It also lets you jump into these different moments on the fly and not worry too much about figuring out how to play them, which is a very smart move from Raven. I really hope other games in the genre (including the might God of War series) takes note because this is how it should be done: make us feel like we're actually playing and not just hitting buttons, make it fast and simple, and let us enjoy the action.
The basic combat is also very satisfying. The moves at your disposal really make you feel powerful and like Wolverine, which is exactly what you'd want of course.
The problem comes more in with content. The locations are repetitive. Some of the enemies are repetitive. Some of them are a lot of fun to fight and would be great if you'd just fought them for a small amount of time, but when they keep coming over and over it gets a little dull. There's one enemy in particular, a lava giant, that FAR overstays his welcome. He should have been a single boss and instead feels like a desperate atttempt to drag the game out.
The great moments are also not frequent enough. The few that are in the game are done so well you'd really wish Raven went all out.
All this being said, there is a great base here for a franchise. Raven really gets Wolverine, can nail the basic combat, and even has fresh new ideas to bring to the genre. Where do you go from here? All out. I'd love to see another game more comic booky (put Wolverine in his damn costume!) and go all out with the super villans and giant sentinels galore and crazy moment after crazy moment.
It's hard not to view this game as a good primer for even greater future games. For the time being, this game makes for an enjoyable, if rough, game. It's not as good as God of War by any means, but it has a lot of potential.

The game is also stuffed full of new content, however, including several hours of added story and gameplay content, new Social Links, new options to tune and develop your party members and Personas, all kinds of expanded gameplay mechanics and a plethora of content to play with outside of the main game.

Cause of death
Benazir Bhutto's cause of death has been an issue of much debate. Some say perhaps she would be considered a martyr if she died by gunshot, but not if she died by hitting her head following an explosion. Others have asserted that the arguments against a death by gunshot were intended to blunt criticism that she was not adequately protected.
Initial reports based on Pakistani Interior Ministry information reported that Benazir was killed by a gunshot wound to the neck. Rehman Malik, the then security adviser for Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), suggested that the killer opened fire as she left the rally and that he hit her in the neck and chest before he detonated the explosives he was wearing.
Javed Cheema, an interior ministry spokesman, stated that her injuries were caused either by her having been shot or from pellets packed into the detonated bomb that acted as shrapnel.
On 28 December, however, the cause of Benazir's death became less clear. Pakistan's Interior Ministry announced that they now felt her death was as a result of a neck fracture sustained when she ducked or fell into her vehicle and hit the sunroof catch immediately after the gunshots, but later reported her cause of death as a skull fracture.
According to an Associated Press report, the Ministry stated "Bhutto was killed when she tried to duck back into the vehicle, and the shock waves from the blast knocked her head into a lever attached to the sunroof, fracturing her skull". The Ministry further added, in contradiction of the official hospital account, that Bhutto suffered no gunshot or shrapnel injuries and that all gunshots missed her.
PPP spokesperson Farhatullah Babar rejected claims that Bhutto's death was caused by an accident. Benazir Bhutto's lawyer and a senior official in the party, Farooq Naik, said that the report was "baseless" and "a pack of lies". He went on to support the view that the cause of death was two bullets hitting Bhutto in the abdomen and the head. An anonymous Toyota official also rejected the notion that she could have even hit the lever based on its location in her Toyota Land Cruiser.
In statements made to Pakistan's The News, Mohammad Mussadiq Khan, one of the doctors who treated Bhutto at Rawalpindi General Hospital, described severe and depressed skull fractures, oval in overall shape, on the right side of Bhutto's head. He apparently saw no other injuries and downplayed the possibility of bullet wounds, although he had previously spoken of them. One anonymous doctor said that Pakistani authorities took Bhutto's medical records immediately after her death, and that they told doctors to stop talking.
On 31 December, Athar Minallah of the Rawalpindi General Hospital released a statement (described as "clinical notes") signed by seven persons involved in Benazir's treatment at the hospital. These persons were not pathologists and did not conduct a formal autopsy. The statement first narrates the course of treatment, from her arrival at the hospital until she was declared dead. The second part of the statement details the head wound and notes that "Detailed external examination of the body did not reveal any other external injury".
X-rays had been taken of the head wound and were interpreted in the statement. The cause of death was declared to be "Open head injury with depressed skull fracture, leading to cardiopulmonary arrest".
According to The Washington Post, the crime scene was cleared before any forensic examination could be completed and no formal autopsy was performed before burial. Doctors had asked permission to perform an autopsy, but this request was denied by the Rawalpindi chief of police. According to the BBC, Brigadier Cheema claims: "We gave you absolute facts…corroborated by the doctors' report," and that Pakistan would allow her body to be exhumed. Bhutto's husband later confirmed that he had denied a request for an autopsy to be conducted citing fears the report would be manipulated.
On 1 January 2008, Pakistan's Interior Ministry backtracked on its statement that Benazir Bhutto had died from hitting her head on the sunroof latch. Ministry spokesman, Javed Iqbal Cheema said that the ministry would wait for forensic investigations before making a conclusion on Bhutto's cause of death.
On 8 February 2008, investigators from Scotland Yard concluded that Benazir Bhutto died after hitting her head as she was tossed by the force of a suicide blast, not from an assassin's bullet. In the report, UK Home Office pathologist Dr. Nathaniel Cary said that while a gunshot wound to her head or trunk could not be entirely excluded as a possibility, "the only tenable cause for the rapidly fatal head injury in this case is that it occurred as the result of impact due to the effects of the bomb-blast."
The findings were consistent with the Pakistani government's explanation of Bhutto's assassination, an account that had been greeted with disbelief by Benazir's supporters.

Singer George Michael taken to hospital after 999 call
Singer George Michael was taken to hospital by ambulance after falling ill.
The 50-year-old fell ill and two ambulances were sent to his north London mansion after a 999 call by a worried friend last week.
His agent told The Sun in a statement: "George Michael was in hospital for routine tests but there is nothing further to say."
A London Ambulance Service spokesman said: "We were called just before 8am on May 22. We sent two ambulance crews and staff treated one patient, a man, who was taken to hospital."
Michael - whose real name is Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou - nearly died from pneumonia in late 2011.
In May last year he was treated in hospital for injuries following a bizarre incident on the M1 motorway. He was airlifted to hospital with a head injury after falling from his vehicle on to the road.
Just 18 months earlier the troubled singer had been close to death after being struck down with pneumonia in Vienna, but he fought back to perform again.
Michael, whose hits include Careless Whisper, Faith and Freedom, has had health scares and run-ins with the police linked to his drug use.
In September 2010 Michael received an eight-week prison sentence following an incident the previous July in which he crashed his Range Rover into a shop in north London.
He was also given a five-year driving ban after he pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of drugs and possessing cannabis.
And he had earlier been banned from driving for two years and sentenced to 100 hours of community service in 2006 when he was convicted of driving while unfit through drugs after he was found collapsed in his Mercedes.
Following his brush with pneumonia in late 2011, Michael made a tearful appearance outside his London home after flying back into the country and said it had been ''touch and go'' whether he lived.
Doctors had performed a tracheotomy to keep his airways open and he was unconscious for some of his spell in hospital.

It probably wouldn't come as that much of a surprise that boys who play sports in high school were more likely than their non-sporting counterparts to engage in bad habits (full disclosure: football here, fightin', no drankin'); after all, these were the meatheads of the class, the jackasses that ended up in jackass jobs like "policeman."* We're not saying athletes were in worse shape or anything - that's clearly not the case - but that they binge drank and fought more often.
(Please, regard this only as an "outlier.")
Ah, but the ladies? If the soccer fight from above is any indication, they're getting as tossed as the guys and throwing more punches too, right? Only makes sense that that adrenaline gets pumping and takes up residence in their brain, right?
Well, no, wrong; young female athletes are less likely to engage in those activities, not more. See, you learned something today.
According to BLOOMBERG.COM:
The study surveyed 13,000 U.S. high school students to evaluate links between team sports and risky behavior. About 60 percent of the boys reported they played team sports within the last year, compared with 48 percent of girls.
The boys playing team sports reported binge-drinking rates 40 percent higher and fighting 30 percent more often than nonathletes, according to the news release. The athlete boys also showed 30 percent lower rates of depression and 20 percent less smoking.
The girls showed no link to drinking in the study, the research reported. The athletic girls showed 10 percent lower rates of fighting, 30 percent less depression, 50 percent less smoking and 10 percent less unhealthy weight loss habits compared with nonathlete girls, the study found.
This, of course, all comes back to good ol' testosterone, of which the high school boys have much too much as they blossom into adulthood or whatever you call it with boys instead of girls. Also, note to self for writing that past sentence: ew.
What surprised us the most was that unhealthy weight loss habits (see: eating disorders) were down only 10% among girls in athletics; normally, you'd think they're athletic enough to not need to resort to self-starvation or bulimia. Certainly more than 10% less likely to "need" it, no? Either way, it goes to show that destructive eating habits are more of a mental disorder than a condition with a more external, evidential basis.

Heels have Sparty on the ropes at half
DETROIT -- They were right. The players and coaches who insisted this game wouldn't be a repeat of the December meeting between North Carolina and Michigan State were exactly right.
This isn't a repeat.
It's worse.
In December, North Carolina led 53-39 at the break. Tonight, it's 55-34, the most lopsided halftime whupping in a national championship game. The previous record belonged to Ohio State, which led California by 18 in 1960.
North Carolina also scored the most points ever in the first half of a title game. The previous record was Syracuse's 53 versus Kansas in 2003.
North Carolina came out bumping people out of the way --
Deon Thompson
sort of walked into
Travis Walton
at the opening tip -- and hasn't stopped knocking the Spartans on their heels.
Wayne Ellington
has all but melted Walton's Big 10 defensive player of the year award. Ellington has 17 first-half points, hasn't missed a 3-pointer and has canned 7 of 9 from the floor.
The early party atmosphere here at Ford Field instead has turned into a wake, save the small sliver of this pie belonging to the cruising Heels' fans.
Meantime, Michigan State faithful have resorted to cheering when their Spartans briefly got the deficit under 20 points.

DEFINITION of 'Structural Unemployment'
A longer-lasting form of unemployment caused by fundamental shifts in an economy. Structural unemployment occurs for a number of reasons – workers may lack the requisite job skills, or they may live far from regions where jobs are available but are unable to move there. Or they may simply be unwilling to work because existing wage levels are too low. So while jobs are available, there is a serious mismatch between what companies need and what workers can offer. Structural unemployment is exacerbated by extraneous factors such as technology, competition and government policy.
BREAKING DOWN 'Structural Unemployment'
Structural unemployment can often last for decades and may need radical change to redress the situation.
For example, hundreds of thousands of well-paying manufacturing jobs have been lost in the U.S. over the past three decades as production jobs have migrated to lower-cost jurisdictions in China and elsewhere.
The 2007-09 global recession also aggravated structural unemployment in the U.S. As the jobless rate peaked at over 10% and the average unemployment period for millions of workers rose significantly compared with previous recoveries, their skills deteriorated during this period of prolonged unemployment. The depressed housing market also affected the job prospects of the unemployed, since relocating to a new job in another city would mean selling their homes at a substantial loss, which not many were willing to do.
Growing technology in all spheres of life may increase future structural unemployment, since workers without adequate skills will get marginalized, while even those with skills may face redundancy given the high rate of technological obsolescence.

text: Financial Firms Jettison Short-Term Incentives, Adopt Performance 'Scorecards' Increasing use of bonus deferrals, claw-backs and balanced performance measurement By Stephen Miller 1/19/2010 Permissions In what could prove to be a bellwether for corporate compensation generally, financial organizations have changed their pay mix, moving away from short-term incentives in favor of increased salary, deferred compensation and modified incentive program design. According to a global survey by HR consultancy Mercer, key changes in the sector's short-term incentive (STI) programs include more focus on balanced, risk-adjusted performance measurement and deferral of bonus payouts over several years. Mercer's Global Financial Services Executive Incentive Plan Survey indicates that, in light of many firms having to seek financial aid from governments and recent regulatory developments, there has been a notable impact on remuneration practices. The data came from 61 global financial firms in the banking and insurance sector. One-third of the respondents had received government aid in some form. Among these, the majority (82 percent) had limits imposed on their executive remuneration programs over the duration of that support. Some of the blame for the financial crisis was leveled at executive compensation practices in the financial sector and, in particular, the focus on paying for short-term performance at the expense of long-term sustainability. In response, over 80 percent of firms surveyed have made, or plan to make, changes to their annual bonus or short-term incentive plan design. "National regulators are attempting to make the sector consider risk more thoughtfully in their performance measurement and reward schemes so as not to encourage excessive risk-taking behaviors," says Vicki Elliott, worldwide partner and leader of Mercer's financial services human capital consulting network. "Our data shows that the majority of participants are changing the nature of their pay structures and their short-term incentive schemes, including the way performance is measured and evaluated. The industry is moving in the right direction." --------------------------------------------------Rewarding long-term performance,not short-term risk-taking.-------------------------------------------------- In general, the majority of companies are: • Decreasing the proportion of the annual cash bonus in the compensation mix. • Increasing base salaries and mandatory deferrals. Long-term incentives are treated differently across the sector, with some companies increasing and others decreasing them with greater attention being paid to including performance conditions beyond share price appreciation. In addition, firms are: • Modifying their STI arrangements. Many European organizations, in particular, have introduced a mandatory bonus deferral linked to performance. • Increasing the amount of bonus being deferred. This provides a greater opportunity to "claw-back" the bonus if performance is poor. A so-called "bonus-malus" (Latin for good-bad) arrangement—where the annual bonus is held in escrow and can be reduced retrospectively in case of future losses—is the more popular approach. Controlling 'Short-Termism' "Deferring bonuses helps companies to control for short-termism," Elliott says. "It means that a portion of bonus is payable to employees in installments, based on subsequent company and/or business unit performance. This claw-back approach sends the message that the bonus isn't finally determined until company or business performance is sustained." Using Scorecards Sixty-eight percent of surveyed companies have introduced performance scorecards to measure business success on financial and nonfinancial performance criteria in an attempt to respond to regulator concern that rewards consider broader performance factors than pure financials. Nonfinancial criteria might include client satisfaction, risk management and compliance. These often include ensuring that profits are sustainable over time. According to Mercer's survey, while organizations now do, or plan to, link deferral payouts to their company performance, the majority have not yet differentiated the bonus deferral based on the nature and time horizon of each role or line of business. According to Lex Verweij, co-leader of Mercer's European reward consulting business, "Regulators are concerned that bonuses in financial organizations were previously implemented with a silo mentality with not enough regard for the sustainability of the company as a whole. It is good to see companies address this issue, but more needs to be done to ensure that line of business and individual performance measures encourage a longer-term view." Fewer Bonus Guarantees Another industry practice, of bonus guarantees—where companies guarantee new hires' bonuses over a number of years with little or no performance requirement—is decreasing: • One-year bonus guarantees have been restricted or eliminated by 41 percent of respondents. • Multiyear bonus guarantees have been limited or eliminated by 64 percent. • "Golden parachutes," whereby executives are guaranteed bonus payouts on departure from the company often irrespective of performance—a practice that generated much debate over "pay for failure"—have been eliminated by 42 percent. "While this survey is a 'snapshot' of initial developments in remuneration practices in response to the financial crisis and regulatory guidelines, it is encouraging that the direction of these changes is positive," comments Verweij. Methodology Over half (58 percent) of the organizations were based in North America, with the remainder based in Europe. Organizations varied in size, with over half (56 percent) employing 10,000 employees or more. Data was collected in October 2009. Stephen Miller is an online editor/manager for SHRM.
