AG Biden says Del. needs new state-of-the-art crime lab
Mark Fowser
Updated Thursday, April 24, 2014 - 3:30pm
The unfolding scandal at the Delaware Medical Examiner's Office drug lab shows a need for a state-of-the-art crime lab, according to Attorney General Beau Biden.
Biden, in a statement issued Thursday, says police and prosecutors have had to send different evidence to separate laboratories in Delaware, and in many cases to private labs outside of the state.
He adds that this can significantly delay investigations and prosecutions.
The Justice Department's criminal probe into the Medical Examiner's lab continues, and questions about missing or switched evidence could affect dozens of drug cases around the state according to local attorneys.
Senior prosecutors from Delaware have already visited the Maryland crime lab, which could serve as a model.
Also, Biden's office is coordinating a group approach this summer to start the process of planning for a new crime lab facility.

My Fitbit doesn't work.
Don't leave! Please… hear me out!
I'm not a Fitbit user by nature. I eschewed the call of "tracking" my exercise and general fitness in this way, and rolled my eyes with the rest of you when coworkers discussed ad nauseum "getting my steps in" and ranted about "I wasn't wearing my Fitbit, so it didn't count!" WHAT? Morons.
A co-worker who I occasionally walk with at lunch-time had her Fitbit break while on vacation, bought an upgraded new one, and found out later that the old one still worked. She offered it to me. Free.
Um, okay. I'll try it – let me see what the hype is about. I've had it about month now.
I don't get it. I don't. Here are my observations:
My Fitbit (Fitbit One) automatically tracks steps, miles and flights of stairs. Sort of.
1. The coworker advised me that the mileage thing seems to be off. (I can't tell.)
2. My first flight downstairs in the morning doesn't EVER count. It only tracks beginning with the first flight up. WHY?
3. My primary workout is yoga. This is not tracked. At all.
4. Neither is time on a stationary bike. Presumably, if I had my phone linked up and with me on an actual bike ride, the GPS may provide mileage for a workout.
5. I went into the app on my phone where, allegedly, I can add untracked exercise. Only to find that I can only log "run, walk, or hike". WHY? How is this beneficial to anyone maintaining a healthy, varied exercise regime?
I would be very interested in the sleep tracking feature available. BUT I need to have the wristband to clip my Fitbit onto in order to even see if it works. I don't have this, so I don't even know if it works.
IF this product worked to track all my exercise, I could see the benefit, but when the Fitbit says I've had 17 active minutes on a day when I busted my butt and got in over 60 minutes of legitimate exercise (weight training? Fuggedaboutit) I am loathe to put my trust in it. If I have to manually enter it anyway, why not just do what I do now and mark it on my planner?
I'm not sold.
Do you have a Fitbit One? What am I missing? How can I add my hours of cycling, weights and yoga?
(Please don't try to sell me on an upgrade. I will not pay for a device to track what I could just as easily track in my planner.)

DENVER, CO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/05/14 -- Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. (OTCQB: MYHI) ("Mountain High" or the "Company"), a strategic real estate holding company whose primary focus is the acquisition and development of commercial properties in the marijuana sector, is pleased to announce that Canna-Life Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has completed the definitive Master Property Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Agreement") for the acquisition of three properties and improvements thereon located in: (i) Lafayette, Boulder County, Colorado, referred to as the "Isabelle Property," (ii) Avondale, Pueblo County, Colorado, referred to as the "Pueblo Property," and (iii) Denver, Denver County, Colorado, referred to as the "Madison St. Property."
"We are extremely pleased to have progressed to complete this milestone Agreement to acquire the highly sought after Isabelle, Pueblo, and Madison Street properties in Colorado," stated Mr. Alan Smith, President of Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. "With this first phase of our property acquisition strategy now secured, we will move forward with our plans to further develop and maximize potential revenue streams from each of our portfolio properties. Additionally, the Company will continue review potential properties in the cannabis sector for future acquisition."
The Isabelle Property consists of nine (9) acres of property, improvements, and other assets located near Boulder, Colorado. Since October 2012, the primary tenant at the Isabelle Property has been one of the largest greenhouse marijuana grow facilities in the State of Colorado, with a total of 42,000 sq./ft. under roof (approx. 1 acre). The current operation at the Isabelle Property can produce in excess of 5,000 lbs. of up to 50 specific strains of marijuana for medical use over approximately 10 separate harvests. Mountain High expects to generate in excess of $2.5 million in net annualized revenue from the Isabelle Property in its current configuration without significant leasehold improvements or expansion, subject to terms and conditions of the agreement. In addition to lease revenues from the Isabelle Property, the Company anticipates generating additional complementary revenue streams related to its position as landlord and primary services provider.
Mr. Smith concluded, "The Isabelle Property is without question one of the best known established marijuana business locations in Colorado, but we are equally excited about the acquisition and revenue potential of the Pueblo and Madison St. properties. With this in mind, we have already taken steps to develop detailed build out strategies for each property and look forward to starting to work with our partners to execute these plans."
The Madison Property, located in Denver, Colorado, is an ideally located 28,000 sq./ft. highly-reinforced building that was previously used for storage of fracking sand and grain. Now zoned for commercial marijuana cultivation, Mountain High intends to fully develop the Madison Property to house up to 200 specialized grow "Pods" designed to be leased to licensed growers for highly specialized medical marijuana cultivation. There are presently no facilities or growing operations on the Madison Property. At full capacity, 200 pods are estimated to represent approximately $8.4 million in annually lease revenues at current market rates.
The Pueblo Property, located at Avondale, Colorado, is 90 acres of raw land surrounded by a former U.S. Army ammunition storage and supply facility and now zoned and approved to become one of the largest single locations for commercial marijuana cultivation in the State. There are presently no facilities or growing operations on the land. Once the required infrastructure of roads, electrical, and water hookups is in place, the Company intends to develop the land into 10 or more distinctive 5 acre plots, collectively comprising a "Cannabis Campus." Each five-acre plot will provide the licensed grower with access to all required commercial growing facilities, including greenhouses, hydroponics, laboratories, kitchens, and outdoors grow operations.
About Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. (MYHI)
Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. is a strategic real estate holding company whose primary focus is the acquisition and development of commercial properties to be leased and utilized by the marijuana industry. Mountain High's current portfolio includes three Colorado properties zoned for commercial marijuana cultivation: Isabelle, Madison, and Pueblo.

How Microsoft Learned to Stop Worrying and (Almost) Love Open Source
Sam Ramji insisted that he wasn't joking, that he wasn't crazy, and that he hadn't joined some sort of dark Microsoft conspiracy.
The year was 2006, and Ramji had just been named Microsoft's head of open source software strategy. Up to then, Redmond's most famous contribution to the open source community was CEO Steve Ballmer comparing Linux to a malignant cancer. Even Ramji was skeptical — and a little afraid — of his new job.
The job would involve speaking to, in his words, "fairly polarized" audiences across the software world. "Polarized" is a bit of a euphemism. "That was a doubly scary proposition as I was not a public speaker and I knew the audiences quite well," Ramji said later, indicating he too was once part of this hostile audience — i.e. the open source lovers who hung out on sites like Slashdot.org. "I'd competed with Microsoft for many years in prior companies and used Slashdot as my homepage."
But ultimately, Ramji decided he could help change not only Microsoft — but also the general perception that the company is the mortal enemy of open source software.

Your Beard Doesn't Intimidate Me Anymore!Linux is a community environment. Whether it's the professionals over at RedHat, Canonical, and Suse or the guys who got together and decided to create Hannah Montana Linux, behind every project there's usually a community. My first attempt at Linux came in the desert in Iraq. We were building a router lab and I had a couple of blade servers lying around but couldn't get the Microsoft 2003 server key from our IT guys. So the other resident nerd on site and I started downloading Linux Distros to check them out. OpenSuse was awesome, Ubuntu was in its infancy, and I had no idea what I was doing. At night I'd trudge through forum after forum trying to figure out how the OS could help solve the problems I was creating and experiencing. There were a lot of posts for post-windows users and not all of them were kind. Many of them were written with a rather mocking or haughty tone. There was almost a standard litmus tests on posts where the person would casually mention how long they've been running Linux. Anything less than five years was a noob and others on the forum would point it out. There were a lot of good, kind voices, but they were often drowned out by those with a chip on their shoulder.

With simply a bunch of male & female human samples they'd made the task, if they own so amazingly high & advanced technological means (they can surf time & space, don't they?)...

We reproduce, breastfeed, have a vast range of emotions, create music, art, literature (imagination). Many of these qualities they have never had or have lost long ago and they now want them. Sure they have advance technology, but they are fascinated with all we can do - with all the little knick knacks we make and create in our homes, with our attentions to asthetics in clothing, decor, nature. How we create so many ways to entertain and amuse ourselves. These things are foreign to alot of beings out there and they want to understand it. They want to feel the same joy that we feel doing the things we love. Being able to feel deeply is one reason our DNA is so valuable to them. And, yes, as Brief has mentioned, they see the negatives as well - obesity, violence,stupidity - and they want to create a being that can experience joy without falling to the other side of the emotional spectrum into aggression. They want to keep the best qualities we have and get rid of the unhealthy, because they see are best qualities as something they would desire to have themselves. [/quote] OK, but that argument give us a really incoherent image of them. They'd be like somehow handicapped beings, fascinated with our emotional nature & art creativity, for example. That makes me wonder about the apparent poverty of heir spiritual nature & history... [/quote] I was refering to the ones involved in the DNA programs. Those are usually the greys and mantis types. There are many more that are not. There are some that look exactly like us except for a few differences. Many are very spiritual beings and are only concerned with our spiritual advancement. Some want to form partnerships with us to help us along in development. Then there are those who really are neutral toward us and don't really want anything to do with us. The universe is vast and varied. [/quote]
Original Message
The affair happened in the Ariel School (Ruwa, Zimbabwe) in 1994. More than 60 children were witnesses of the alleged event. Among the researchers (in situ), the late Dr. Mack (Pulitzer Prize). Maybe this was simply the most relevant event on ufology of the last decades, and... who remembers it????

Additional Notes
Complaint: Where do I begin? When I purchased a car from this dealership it started with finance. The finance manager we dealt with was extremely unprofessional. We caught the extra $2,000 that was hidden on our contract and he had to print out a new contract with that amount removed, I'm assuming that was the finance manager's commission because when he came back with a new contract he was slamming his computer mouse around and typing really hard. After we left with the new car that had "a full tank of gas" we realized it had a warning for being almost empty, and the tires were low on air. They didn't even touch that car before selling it to me. Then the biggest issue I'm having. The dealer I worked with told me my payments were through this random credit union and that I would receive a letter in the mail with my member number that I can use to log in and make payments. A month went by and I still hadn't received that letter. So after sending my first payment to this random credit union in hopes my payment wouldn't be late, I called the credit union asking why I hadn't received that letter. They told me I wasn't even in their system. So I called Nissan asking where am I supposed to make my payments to, only for them to tell me that my payments were not to be made to that credit union, but to Nissan itself. So my money is floating around somewhere, I can no longer make the payment for the month. So I spoke with Nissan Finance and told them my situation and said because of the misinformation I need a due date change, they understood and said we will need you to get a revision request from the dealership. So I called the dealership and they said they would send one to get this fixed. I am not one day away from the original due date and Nissan has told me they cannot make this change. So in the past two weeks of trying to get this fixed, I've only gotten closer to the original due date with no change made. Now I will be facing a late fee and a late payment. I need a resolution.
Desired Settlement: Because of the miscommunication from the dealer, I need my payment date moved back one month. I was prepared to make the first payment but because I was told to send it elsewhere, I am no longer able to make it on time or even within the 10 day grace period. I have talked to probably five different people now and it seems like no matter what I do or who I explain this to, my request is being ignored. This issue was caused by Nissan, not by me.
Business Response:
Dear BBB/**** ******, We apologize for the experience **** had to deal with. We met her demands and we will continue to make sure she is satisfied with Boucher.
Best Regards,
Gordie Boucher Jr

A new typhoon has formed in the western Pacific and is on track to strengthen into the equivalent of a category two hurricane over the coming day.
Typhoon Prapiroon, deemed such by the Japan Meteorological Agency, took shape late Monday. The storm is moving very slowly to the west, well east of the Philippines.
Due to warm ocean waters and low wind shear (disruptive winds above the surface) over the region, Prapiroon is expected to continue strengthening through midweek.
In the short term, land masses across the area look like they will generally be spared by the system, as winds aloft are so weak that the storm will likely drift very slowly west, if it moves at all.
Eventually, Paprioon will take a northerly turn before it can drift across Manila or Taiwan. However, this turn could be as far away as early next week. What happens after that will be difficult to guess, but Japan looks like the most likely target for the system.
The Philippines should not endure a direct landfall by Prapiroon, but eventually heavy rain will spread across the islands.
Despite the fact that Prapiroon will not make landfall over the next week or so, it will at the very least disrupt shipping in the region, as the storm's slow movement and constant winds will likely produce locally rough seas and build significant swells in its vicinity.
Expanding rainfall will bring good news and bad news for people in the northeastern United States into early next week.
Following an outbreak of severe thunderstorms at midweek, more storms will ignite over the southern Plains and will include the potential for flash flooding into the weekend.
Those looking forward to traveling or spending the bank holiday weekend outdoors across the United Kingdom will face bouts of rain and increasingly gusty winds.
Rain will threaten to put a damper on Walpurgis Night and May Day festivities across parts of Germany this weekend.
Enough cold air will be in place for another round of heavy snow to fall across Colorado, including Denver, to end the week.
One of the largest severe weather outbreak so far this year occurred this week as powerful winds, large hail and heavy rains pummeled the Plains and parts of the Ohio Valley over the course of several days.
Anchorage, AK (997)

What is an 'Obligation'
An obligation in finance is the responsibility to meet the terms of a contract. If an obligation is not met, the legal system often provides recourse for the injured party.
BREAKING DOWN 'Obligation'
Financial obligations represent any outstanding debts or regular payments that you must make. If you owe or will owe money to anybody, that is one of your financial obligations. Almost any form of money represents a financial obligation – coins, bank notes, or bonds are all promises that you will be credited the accepted value of the item. Most formal financial obligations, like mortgages, student loans or scheduled service payments, are set down in written contracts signed by both parties.
Obligations are an important aspect of personal finance. Every budget should first include all financial obligations for which the individual is responsible over the given time period. The Financial Obligation Ratio (FOR), a quarterly figure released by the Federal Reserve Board that estimates the ratio of household debt payments to disposable income, is a useful benchmark for individual budgets. Assessing obligations carefully is especially important for retirement planning. When planning over longer periods of time such as this, the individual budgeter should consider more long-term obligations, like interest rates on mortgage payments or healthcare costs that have yet to be incurred.
The failure to meet obligations is met with punishment, the degree of which depends on the character of the contract. If an individual fails to make their car payments regularly, the auto company will repossess the car. Taxes, too, are a form of obligation, and failing to meet them results in large fines or imprisonment. When large companies fail and find themselves unable to fulfill their outstanding debts, they can declare bankruptcy, which initiates the relief of the total debt for the debtor while giving the creditor an opportunity to recuperate some of their losses in the form of assets held by the debtor.
Obligations can be held by any individual or entity that is engaged in any sort of contract with another party, and broadly speaking, can be written or unwritten. A politician, for example, has the written obligation to serve all of his constituents within the confines of the law, but they may also have an unwritten obligation to make decisions that will effect their largest donors. The existence of these kinds of agreements is nearly impossible to prove and such obligations cannot be effectively regulated. Justice systems dating back to the Romans have offered stringent legal enforcement of important contracts.

What a great pouch. It hold my Atlas Tripod like a glove plus more. It make it possible to protect my tripod when it is it is in it, and easy to find in my pack of tricks when I have to grab it fast. I have to admit, I thought when I ordered it I might have made a hasty decision. After getting it better than expected
The Atlas Bipod fits perfectly with ample space for other small items (rangefinder,GPS, etc.). A little pricey for the space you do get.

Today's Horoscope by Rick Levine
As if your relationships with friends and associates haven't been complicated enough, a whole new dimension of depth and intrigue can emerge now. You are less apt to go off to have a good time today if it means letting your responsibilities suffer. Although others might think you're taking your work too seriously, you are quite clear about your current ambitions and the results you seek. Cutting back on your social activities helps you deliver on your professional promises.

CAST hosts Cyparski and Guidera
CAST Theatre hosts live acoustic music Saturday featuring local favorites Jon Cyparski and Rob Guidera and special guests. The show starts at 8 p.m.; doors open at 7:30. Admission is $5 at the door. Children under 12 are free. Refreshments will be served at intermission.
Cyparski (guitar, flute, vocals, percussion) and Guidera (guitar, concertina, vocals) play eclectic folk music drawing on the influences of reggae, irish Celtic, jazz and original tunes. The duo has been drawing a following at Hood River's First Friday art and music celebrations, and previously played at the CAST to a full house.
CAST Theatre is located at 105 4th St. in Hood River.
Savino's hosts Clumsy Lovers
Almost a household name in the Gorge, the raging Celtic bluegrass rock of the Clumsy Lovers returns to Hood River this Thursday for an outdoor show downtown Hood River at Savino's Lounge.
The band will be playing a host of new music from their recently released disc "Under the Covers." The new disc is a fast-paced collection of songs originally done by such artists as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and The Pogues.
What started out as a hobby-based band has turned into a major following for the foursome from Vancouver, B.C. Formed in 1993, the core lineup of Jason Homey on banjo, Chris Jonat on bass, Andrea Lewis on fiddle, Chris Palmer on drums and Trevo Rogers on vocals, guitar and mandlolin has largely remained the same.
The People, Ultronz at River City
The People offer up their own brand of funk and jazz-rock sounds. They originaly hail from Athens, Ga. and have made the recent move to the Eugene area where they are garnering rave reviews in the local press. The People play Friday.
The Ultronz, playing Saturday, achieved popularity with windsurfers from around the world with their raging, slam dancing style in the '80s and '90s along with songs that have a breezy tropical sound. In 1987 they introduced their music in Hood River to a brawling audience of boardheads. Their audience danced to a band sharing amplifiers and using broomsticks for mike stands. They have remained their most loyal fans. Over the years the Ultronz have produced four albums performing in venues all over the Northwest and attained an international following. The Ultronz have compiled the best for their new double CD Set.

The riding lawn mower driven by Norma Cannon overheated and made contact with dry arbor vitae owned by Lee and Norma Curtis, sending more than a dozen of the tightly-packed trees up in flames. The mower, visible at far right, was totaled. No one was injured; neighbors first kept the fire at bay with garden hoses and Westside and Hood River Fire Departments responded and doused the fire before it reached any structures.

SUNDAY, June 20 (HealthDay News) -- Among older men, having a high testosterone level is associated with a raised risk of heart disease or a heart attack, new research suggests.
The finding, from a new U.S. National Institutes of Health-funded study, concerns men over the age of 65 and is based on a tracking of hormone levels and heart disease among nearly 700 community-dwelling men.
Study author Dr. Kristen Sueoka, a resident physician at the University of California, San Francisco, is scheduled to present the finding Sunday at the Endocrine Society's Annual Meeting and Expo, held in San Diego.
"The study finding contradicts smaller studies that have shown that testosterone levels are not associated with higher rates of cardiovascular disease," Sueoka said in a news release from the Endocrine Society.
"Many in the general public are using testosterone supplements for various medical problems, including low sex drive and mood disorders, which are not life-threatening. These men may unknowingly be placing themselves at higher risk for cardiovascular disease," she added.
None of the study participants were on any testosterone replacement therapy at the time of the study. Over an average of four years of follow-up, the study authors found that 100 of the men (14 percent) experienced either a heart attack, unstable angina (considered a pre-heart attack warning sign), and/or angioplasty or bypass surgery to clear clogged arteries.
The research team further noted that men at the highest end of the testosterone spectrum had more than twice the risk for coronary disease than men with the lowest testosterone levels.
"One day testosterone measurements may be used to help predict which men are more likely to develop cardiovascular disease," Sueoka suggested. "But we need more studies to confirm that high testosterone is a risk factor for heart disease."

Idaho does an about-face on Five Wives Vodka – and will now sell it
Idaho reversed its decision to ban Five Wives Vodka from being sold in the state after the state was threatened in the face of a lawsuit.
Although state regulators on Wednesday opted to allow the sale of the alcohol, a liquor producer whose label makes an unmistakable reference to polygamy
would not immediately rule out legal action.
The Idaho State Liquor Division
rejected as offensive last week the product that shows five women hiking
up their skirts on the vodka bottle. Idaho is more than 25 percent
Mormon and the church at one time allowed polygamy but abandoned the
practice in 1890.
Controversial: Idaho regulators decided not to ban 'Five Wives Vodka' in the state after facing a potential lawsuit from their original decision
The vodka originates from Ogden's Own Distillery in Utah, where the Mormon church is based.
Idaho State Liquor Division administrator Jeff Anderson had said the brand is offensive to Mormons who make up over a quarter of Idaho's population.
George Washington University professor Jonathan Turley in a letter to Idaho officials and posted on his website said he planned to sue on behalf of the producer of Five Wives Vodka.
He called the ban unconstitutional and gave the state 10 days to reverse its position.
The state only took hours to respond:
'In a shared desire to avoid unnecessary litigation costs to Ogden's Own Distillery and the people of Idaho, today we have informed the makers of `Five Wives' vodka that we will immediately begin processing special order requests for both on-premise licensees and retail consumers,' said Mr Anderson in a statement on Wednesday afternoon.
'Cumbersome process': Five Wives Vodka will immediately begin processing special order requests for the liquor
Steve Conlin, a partner and marketing chief for Ogden's Own Distillery, said the company's attorneys would review Idaho's decision before making a statement, likely on Thursday.
But he said selling the vodka as a special order request meant it wouldn't be available on store shelves but only as a special order. Bars would face the same hurdle.
a cumbersome process on special orders,' Conlin said. 'But I'm not
saying that it's not a solution for us at this point. I can't say one
way or the other right now.'
Regulators in Idaho had originally
notified Elite Spirits Distributor that the brand's concept is
'offensive to a prominent segment of our population and will not be
carried,' according to a letter sent last week
'The bottom line is, we represent everybody,' Anderson added on Tuesday. 'It's masterful marketing on their part. But it doesn't play here.'
Mr Anderson had previously said state stores already make hundreds of vodka brands available for sale and don't have room for another brand priced at around $20 a bottle.
The company is also apparently still smarting from comments made by state officials questioning the quality of Five Wives Vodka as part of the state's initial decision not to sell it in Idaho.
Mr Anderson, in a letter to alcohol distribution company Elite Spirits Distribution owner John Challenger and officials at Ogden's Own Distillery informing them of the change in Idaho's policy, included an apology that wasn't a part of his public statement.
'I apologize for comments reported in the media that may have led consumers to believe `Five Wives' is an inferior vodka product,' Anderson wrote. A copy of the letter, obtained by The Associated Press, was also sent to Idaho Deputy Attorney General Tim Davis.
Ogden's Own Distillery had been building a media campaign and a sale of 'Free the Five Wives' T-shirts.
The company said the snub was unfair because a Utah beer named Polygamy Porter is already available in Idaho. Anderson said Idaho doesn't decide what beer brands can be sold in grocery and convenience stores.
Publicity: Ogden's Own Distillery is had tried to make the most of the initial rejection with a media campaign and sale of 'Free the Five Wives' T-shirts
'We're a little dumbfounded by it all,' said Steve Conlin, a partner and marketing chief for Ogden's Own Distillery.
'The average person can look at our bottle and they don't find it offensive. It's certainly not obscene, which is what it would require for it to be banned.'
Five Wives Vodka has already been approved for sale in Utah, a state dominated by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It's also available in Wyoming, another state that regulates liquor sales.
Nobody in Utah is raised a fuss over the brand, said Vickie Ashby, a spokeswoman for the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
Utah regulates all sales of hard liquor, wine and heavy beer, making the products available only at state-owned stores. Idaho and Wyoming control liquor sales with a mix of state-owned and privately-operated stores.
'We have a product that has sold nearly 1,000 cases in six months in Utah,' Conlin said. 'If the reaction is because of a religious concern, we think they are extremely misguided.'

Words of a true Jew hater. Nothing said about Turkey sactioning the flotilla's act of stupid defiance. They have blood on their own hands yet remain silent. Everyone including the author is quick to blame Israel for it's shortcomings yet turn a blind eye to the vile actions of their neighbours. Get a life ! Leave journalism to those who really understand their craft.
