SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. (Jan. 14, 2010) -- The Army's Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command has a team deployed to Haiti to prepare for follow-on forces that will deliver and distribute humanitarian supplies in the wake of Tuesday's devastating earthquake.
Eight people from SDDC in Fort Eustis, Va., arrived in Haiti this morning as part of a U.S. Transportation Command team to identify which of SDDC's and USTRANSCOM's transportation and logistics capabilities will best support the relief effort despite a damaged seaport and an overwhelmed airport.
"We've been working to determine how best to support the humanitarian efforts in Haiti," said Maj. Gen. James L. Hodge, SDDC commanding general. "We have the means to quickly provide deployment and distribution services anywhere in the world, and we're committed to being part of this response."
SDDC stands ready to provide logistical support to humanitarian operations in several ways. The command, which has servicemembers and civilians stationed around the world, has specialized units of Soldiers known as Rapid Port Opening Elements standing by in expectation of forthcoming deployment orders.
"The nature of these units is such that they're always prepared for short-notice deployment. This is the type of mission the RPOEs were made for," said Col. Jeffrey B. Helmick, commander of 597th Transportation Group, the parent unit of the three RPOEs.
The RPOEs deploy on short notice as part of a USTRANSCOM joint expeditionary logistics force to establish an air or seaport for the delivery of supplies and equipment, as well as a forward distribution hub through which relief agencies can track and receive supplies without adding to congestion at the port or airfield. They can also receive and move cargo from air and sea craft to ground transportation as an initial-entry port opening force until relieved by - or are integrated into - follow-on sustainment forces.
"In the immediate aftermath of a catastrophe such as this, the influx of relief supplies can be frustrated by damaged infrastructure and a lack of accountability," Helmick said. "The RPOE Soldiers are able to establish a network to track and distribute crucial supplies to ensure those providing relief have what they need, when they need it."
The teams that deploy to support a mission are tailored to the mission. The advance party, which can include Navy, Air Force and Army RPOE personnel, will determine the needs of the mission. The SDDC advance team in Haiti is comprised of seven Soldiers and one civilian.
Once the assessment is complete, a determination is made regarding the size of the task force to be sent on the mission. A task force can include more than 50 Soldiers and 136 pieces of equipment or be as small as a few people and vehicles. With the task force in place, a port of debarkation can handle 560 short tons per day with round-the-clock operations. This includes clearing the airfield of cargo and maintaining visibility for commanders and agencies on the ground.
"As we determine who can be sent and what we can do to help, our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Haiti," said Hodge. "We're proud to be part of the continuing tradition of helping our neighbors through humanitarian efforts on behalf of the Army and the nation."

BOSTON Members of the Sikh religion in Massachusetts are reacting with profound sadness to Sunday's shooting massacre at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin.
Six people died in Oak Creek, Wis., after the alleged gunman, 40-year-old Wade Michael Page, entered the temple and opened fire. Page was then killed in a shootout with police.
On Monday night, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., local Sikhs will hold a candlelight vigil at the temple, or gurdwara, at 204 East Main St. in Milford.

I tell the day, to please him thou art bright, And dost him grace when clouds do blot the heaven: So flatter I the swart-complexion'd night, When sparkling stars twire not thou gild'st the even.

TENORETIC® (atenolol and chlorthalidone) is for the treatment of hypertension. It combines the antihypertensive activity of two agents: a beta1-selective (cardioselective) hydrophilic blocking agent (atenolol, TENORMIN®) and a monosulfonamyl diuretic (chlorthalidone). Atenolol is Benzeneacetamide, 4-[2'-hydroxy-3'-[(1-methylethyl) amino] propoxy]-.
Atenolol (free base) is a relatively polar hydrophilic compound with a water solubility of 26.5 mg/mL at 37° C. It is freely soluble in 1N HCl (300 mg/mL at 25°C) and less soluble in chloroform (3 mg/mL at 25°C).
Chlorthalidone is 2-Chloro-5-(1-hydroxy-3-oxo-1- isoindolinyl) benzene sulfonamide:
Chlorthalidone has a water solubility of 12 mg/100 mL at 20°C.

Victorian (Queen Ann) Style Curved Porch {Mangaris}comments (3) May 27th, 2010 in Project Gallery
Hi. My name is Cliff Audet and I wanted to enter this porch that my crew and I built for my own house. The old porch was rotten beyond repair, so when we replaced it using the same details, we added 1 foot to the width. We also decided to wrap it around the corner and run the length of the gable end wall also. The bulkhead had to be extended out to the edge of the new porch wall. The screened in part has removable glass sashes that can be traded out for screens in the warmer months. When not in use, the screens or glass store in a closet built for them right on the porch. The cedar railing joinery is half lapped. The header beam at the radius is laminated pine bent over a form. The curved railings are cut. The decking is 1x4 mangaris pie cut around the radius. The gingerbread detailing is individual pieces of 1/2" cellular pvc with hand cut flower cutouts.

I must admit being in this area for more than 40 years I am a local fan, 49ers, Giants, A's, too after the Boston teams.
Last night watching the game on my IMAC and it was 7-2, my wife and I left for dinner with a TV in the bar and saw the 9th inning of the Giants beating the Phillies 2-1. My wife, with better eyesight, said the Sox won. I said White Sox ? I kept looking and squinted and saw the 8-7 score Final and was initially upset I left the game at home as Yogi said "It ain't over til it's over". Got over my disappointment and really enjoyed my wine & dinner.
Hope you all become SF Giant fans next 3 games as they play Tampa !!!

February 4, 2011 – Thanks so much to everyone who entered to win the Horizon goody bag! And the four winners are …
#22 – Victoria who said, "I love the taste of this milk (even the skim tastes creamier than regular 2%) but I haven't made the switch yet."
#92 – Chantel McLaurin who said, "I LOVE Horizon's Organic Chocolate Milk it is SO good! I also love their strawberry milk too!! I made the switch just so I can drink their milk!!"
#319 – Gina who said, "I make a special trip to get horizon milk for my son! We use 2% dha omega 3 ! Went strait to it from Brest milk! I also love the cheese sticks ! But I cant find the yogurt with veggies anymore! Sad ! I loved that stuff! Anyway we are die hard fans … Always will be ! Yummm ! That's for quality products I can always trust!"
#470- Nanine who said, "I am as organic as I can be on a very limited budget. But the things I will not skimp on is Milk and Eggs. They MUST Be Organic (the eggs must be free roaming). I Usually buy Horizon because it has the DHA added. Great product!!"
Congrats to all!!
I'm not the most organic girl on the block. Far from it. But for the last few years, I've been trying to research and evaluate different organic and/or natural products, and when it makes sense to me, make the switch. Milk is one of the products where I've made the leap and am trying to stick to it.
The four main areas of concern when it comes to milk are the use of antibiotics, added growth hormones, pesticides and the practice of genetically modifying or cloning. The bottom line here is if something is in a cow's system and you eat the meat or drink the milk – tag, you're it. It's funny, when you cut out all the scientific words and scare tactics and just use this logic, it makes total sense to me; and because I'm not crazy about the Freeman fam sitting down to a big bowl of pesticides, I'm in.
But wait, there's something else to consider … to DHA or not to DHA? That is the question.
Horizon Organic just launched a new line of their popular organic milk that in addition to containing calcium, vitamin D and 8 essential nutrients, incorporates DHA, a nutrient that supports brain, heart and eye health.
DHA is a healthy fatty acid that accounts for up to 97% of the omega-3 fats in the brain and up to 93% of the omega-3 fats in the retina. The thought is, the more DHA is consumed in the diet, the more is available to support healthy function in these areas and also the heart. (More info on the Horizon Facebook page)
According to pediatrician Dr. Alan Greene, "Most American kids are not getting the DHA they need. The typical three-year-old needs about 150 mg of DHA a day. On average, they are only getting about 19, mg, a tiny fraction of what they need for optimal brain growth."
The way I see it, if all things are equal (meaning, unless it tastes awful and is like triple the price and just unrealistic – which its not) I'm always going to pick the version with extra vitamins for my family. With two growing boys, a husband with diabetes and a mom who could never remember to take a vitamin if you paid her, we could use the help.
Now if they really want to hook mom on this stuff, they'd sell the DHA version in those genius little juice-box style packages. Are your kids addicted like mine?
Horizon Organic Milk is available at conventional and organic grocery stores and comes in whole, 2%, skim and chocolate. Price is approximately $4.99 for a half gallon. (pssst – you can get a coupon for 55 cents off on their site)
Wanna try it? We're giving away 4 Horizon goody bags each including 5 free Horizon coupons (awesome!) and a Horizon t-shirt, sweatshirt, SIGG water bottle and more. To enter, comment below telling us if you already buy organic milk or if you're contemplating the switch before Thursday, March 3 at midnight EST. We'll choose a random winner and announce at the top of this post on Friday, March 4. Good luck. Those milk coupons are gold!!
Don't forget to "like" Horizon on Facebook. Tons of great info and even coupons from time to time.

This brief paper was written as part of the academic writing skills seminar that was held at the CIDT office in April 2009. The paper focuses on the first draft of the Muslim Brotherhood's political platform.
[To read the paper in full please go to www.arabwestreport.info/AWRpapers-fulltext.php?report_id=14]
This brief paper was written as part of the academic writing skills seminar that was held by the Center for Intercultural Dialogue and Translations in conjunction with the Danish-Egyptian Dialogue Institute and the Program for Civilization Studies and Dialogue of Cultures (PCSDC) at Cairo University.
The paper looks at the first draft of the Muslim Brotherhood's political platform. The draft was sent to a number of political commentators for their opinions. However the first draft provoked widespread opposition because of controversial sections that limited the rights of non-Muslims and women. Furthermore, the platform seems to contradict itself by both calling for democracy and ensuring human rights on the one hand and then limiting who can become president and calling for a religious council to adjudicate laws on the other.
The paper investigates what, if any, changes will be made in the second draft that is to be published within the coming months and analyses the main discourse currents in the Muslim Brotherhood at the moment. It is clear from looking at the different currents in the group that they are very varied and often conflicting.

Comparision of the voice over actors who have been the voice of Cameron Hodge with sound clips and images.

We shall begin with the 90's X Men series in which Cameron appeared in his original form (and later on in the series his Phalanx form) voiced by Stephen Ouimette (whom also voiced Cameron's old college Roommate Warren Worthington III/Angel). Anyways Stephen played the role of Cameron as a bit more "Affably Evil" sort of way as Cameron seemed like a decent fellow at first but then you find out this is not quite the case (though I like on how Stephen does occasionally add in a little bit of sliminess to his performance as well). Granted Stephen's performance for the roles gets a bit more sinister in Cameron's Phalanx form later on in the series but his work as Cameron's original appearance was good as well and is a pretty good example of the voice work in the series.
Many years later Keith Ferguson gets to take over the role of Cameron Hodge in X Men Destiny (in which the game is going with the idea of Cameron being in a powerful attack suit). Keith's voice for the role is deeper but Keith does a pretty good job in making it work as his performance does sound quite sinister. But not only does Keith's voice and performance for the role suit how sinister Cameron can be but also how arrogant and treacherous he can be as well and is a good example of the voice work in that game. Overall both of these guys did pretty well but I suppose I will go with Keith Ferguson a bit more here.

Florence & Tuscany: When to Go
By Rick Steves
Tuscany's best travel months (also its busiest and most expensive) are April, May, June, September, and October. These months combine the convenience of peak season with pleasant weather.
The most grueling thing about travel in Tuscany is the summer heat in July and August, when temperatures hit the high 80s and 90s. Most midrange hotels come with air-conditioning — a worthwhile splurge in the summer — but it's usually available only from June through September.
In April and October, you'll generally need a sweater or light jacket in the evening. In winter the temperatures can drop to the 40s or 50s. Off-season has none of the sweat and stress of the tourist season, but sights may have shorter hours, lunchtime breaks, and fewer activities. Confirm your sightseeing plans locally, especially when traveling off-season.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Daddyshome Great Location I love the location and quality of this hotel. I have not stay here since 2008, but the quality has not changed. We only had one glitch and that was a request for toothpaste. It seems the page they send did not go thru so I had to call decline because we had to leave for the day. A moment later the delivered the toothpaste as we were closing our door to leave. That was impressive. Great access to the highway for Ross Park mall and the water front. Walking distance to the strip too. July 23, 2014

Rated 3 out of 5 by HBriggs Westin Pittsburgh Nice downtown location, but I expected better. The towels were musty (obviously laying around in water too much), the phone was from the mid 1990's and didn't work, and the vanity was chipped. When I asked if I could have a late checkout, I was told no, even though it was only an extra hour (from noon to 1 pm). July 20, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by businesstraveler32 Great Location, Thin Room Walls I enjoyed almost all of my experience at this hotel, except perhaps the part that matters the most - the sleeping part. Let's get the worst out of the way - the guest room walls are paper-thin, perhaps the thinnest I've ever experienced. I could hear, word-for-word, the conversations of my neighbors until at least 1am. As for everything else, it's very nice. The conference food was quite good, I liked the decor, and the location really can't be beat. I enjoyed taking a run underneath the convention center and out along the River to Point State Park. If I knew I would not have any neighbors, I would definitely stay here again. But since I don't think I can have that guarantee, I'll likely look elsewhere in the future. July 20, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by JayC31 Needs some improvement I am a big SPG fan but this was my first stay at the Westin in downtown Pittsburgh. Location is great but I guess I checked in after the "furry" convention in town and my bathroom smelled of bleach and disinfectant. Secondly the flush on the toilet would hiss for 10 minutes before finally dying down. I usually like Westins a lot but this was definitely sub-par. Could have been a better stay. July 18, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by SCUP49 Excellent Service and Location Everyone, and I mean everyone, made me feel welcomed without overdoing it. I truly appreciated the wireless access as a guest and the Starbucks coffee in my room. I took advantage of the green program (not having room serviced each day) and commend you for doing that. I appreciated having coffee-to-go after breakfast (the eggs benedict with salmon--terrific) and an apple to take with me. Room service was exceptionally prompt and, again, very tasteful food. The folks at the Fitness Center were very attentive and the Center itself very clean and good smelling. Having access to a shuttle to take us to landmarks and venues was over the top. I truly, truly enjoyed my visit with you! Please know that every member of your staff performed above expectations. July 18, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SCUPtraveler Best location for convention center This hotel has a covered walkway between it and the convention center. Since there is frequent rain at this time of year, that was very helpful. July 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Valkwoman July 2014 Westin Pittsburgh Stay The Westin Convention Center, Pittsburgh is a stunner architecturally. The common spaces are well-appointed and light-infused. Direct connection to the adjacent DL Convention Center is a plus. Staff responsiveness and attitudes are superb. Obviously, the staff are well-trained in customer service and they embrace it as a mission. Special shout-outs to the bell hops and especially the bell captain who jump-started my car. A special nod to the shuttle driver Tim who patiently answered my questions about Pittsburgh and life in general. I did not eat in the hotel restaurants as my conference in DLCC included meals. My room was average. I appreciated the hot water and the "rain" shower head. There were a lot of noises from the corridor and adjacent rooms. The bath tub was slow running. July 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Hip14 This hotel has a great location If you are in Pittsburgh for a conference, this hotel is perfect. Connected by a walkway to the convention centre gives easy access to the facility. It is within walking distance to downtown restaurants and attractions. Don't get a room near the elevator because of the noise from the elevator going up and down. Other than that, it was an excellent stay. July 17, 2014

Rated 4 out of 5 by JCB14 This hotel has good features This is a comfortable, older, clean hotel with very accommodating staff. The conference I attended was really well planned and the location was perfect. The only problem I encountered was that some rooms were too warm and some too cold - not many were just right. July 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by OneOfManyCats Great rooms but other aspects needed some improvement I visited the Westin hotel in Pittsburgh for the annual AnthroCon convention and, although the rooms were fantastic, the hotel's other features required some slight improvement... The pool's temperature did not feel properly regulated, the hot tub was completely out of commission, the gym's changing room did not feel properly maintained and the cleaning staff was not very prompt (probably due to the convention though) to name a few. On the other hand, the rest of the staff was very friendly and they were able to quickly answer all of my questions. In closing, although I am not a fan of Downtown Pittsburgh, I highly recommend the Westin Convention Hotel if you are attending one of the many conventions held in that area or just traveling in general. July 14, 2014

Rated 5 out of 5 by JStringer Another Excellent Visit As a staff member for Anthrocon, I have been graced with the chance to stay at the Westin Convention Center since the event moved into Pittsburgh. The rooms are always clean and the staff always friendly, often remembering myself and others who visit them only once a year. July 8, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jaxen It was...okay. Overall, it wasn't an unpleasant experience to stay at the Westin in Pittsburgh. The staff at the desk were very pleasant and enthusiastic to help. The facilities overall were nice, and bore the brunt of the con admirably. However, the room itself could have used some work... The outlets built into the desk at the far end of the room were inexplicably wired into the lightswitch near the door. Because of this, we didn't notice that our devices didn't charge at all overnight after we turned out the lights, and we ended up with dead phones the next day. Not good when you need the phone to coordinate meeting up at various points in the day. In addition, despite having a key card in the slot near the door, the lightswitch in the bathroom did not work for most of our stay. In the rare event we were able to get the lights to turn on, we left them on for fear that if we turned them off, we'd have to shower by flashlight again. This kind of negated the hotel's attempts to save money on electricity with their frustrating key-in-the-lightswitch system. Speaking of the bathroom: We were supplied with fresh, new towels every day, but it seems like the housekeeping staff didn't pay attention to renewing much else. There was a day when we actually ran out of toilet tissue, and were down to tiny slivers of soap. For a two-bed room with only three people in it, that seems strangely "down to the wire". Our damp, used towels were left draped on the tub where we designated to discard them, and not removed from the room. The bathroom did not have a fan, meaning it was perpetually damp for hours after showering, which is undoubtedly why there was visible rust and peeling paint in several places. On the whole, it was decent, but I can't say it was the greatest hotel stay I'd ever had. July 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Roz14 Good location to city attractions Our experience was good except for response to our request for replacement of a room refrigerator. After three requests the refrigerator was delivered to our room but didn't cool. Another front desk request was made for a replacement which did not arrive. Finally after the fifth complaint a working unit arrived. The excuse given was that the front desk clerk did not notify housekeeping of our request. Other than this lack of communications between staff our experience at this hotel was favorable. July 3, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Canuck7 Great View! The hotel staff were exceptional however the breakfast that we had for the Canadian contingent was not good at all. Other than that the food and service was good. The beds and room were quite nice. I would like to have had a refrigerator that we could use. July 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JB14 Overall very nice stay. The only issue we had was with the Penn Restaurant. I think there should have been more anticipation of the number of guests so that the time spent there would have been better managed. We waited an hour for a bowl of oatmeal and then didn't get milk or cream with it. It was so late, we had to leave so didn't even get to eat it and were charged $31.00! July 3, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Waterguy Bad Dining Terrible service at the bar and a very mouthy server in the second floor restaurant. The hotel itself was fine. Good front desk service and the valet guys were great. Also, very good concierge group. We just can't get by the food service problems. This was, by the way, a discussion point between the entire group. I would never stay there again as a result. July 3, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by 14red bad elevators stuck in elevator for 45 minutes - almost again the next day. printers in business center didn't work. staff was good, but I was glad to get the heck out of there. July 3, 2014

Soldier from elite unit fatally stabbed by Palestinian police officer in W. Bank
Ihad Khatib, 28, a non-commissioned logistics officer in the elite Kfir brigade, from the Druze community of Arab Maghar, was stabbed to death yesterday by a member of the Palestinian Authority police at Tapuach Junction, south of Nablus.
Initial reports said the victim had been in his jeep, driving from the direction of Ramallah toward Nablus, when he was approached by the attacker, Mahmoud Khatib, who reached into the vehicle and stabbed Ihab Khatib close to his heart.
The victim tried to flee in his vehicle, which overturned. He was found by rescue personnel who rushed to the scene.
Yossi Margalit, a security officer from a nearby settlement, ran over the suspected attacker, lightly wounding him. He was then arrested and given medical attention on the spot.
The wounded Israeli Defense Forces soldier was transferred to Beilinson Medical Center in Petah Tikva, where he died of his wounds.
Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad condemned the "stabbing incident" and said the PA would "continue to make every effort to prevent such an event from recurring."
He said it "undermines national Palestinian objectives and the Palestinian Authority's commitments." But he said Palestinians were united behind non-violent resistance.
MK Michael Ben Ari of the right-wing National Union party lashed out the government, accusing the prime minister of creating circumstances that facilitate attacks. "[Benjamin] Netanyahu is busy with removing roadblocks and allowing terrorists to move freely, and the consequences are quick to follow," Ben Ari said.
The Yesha council of settlers also blamed the attack on government policy, saying: "The terror attack at the Tapuach junction is a direct result of [Israel's] gestures toward the Palestinians. The pathetic attempts to bolster Abu Mazen [Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas] and to lure him back to the negotiating table with security concessions and the transfer of authority over security issues to the Palestinians, from whom the murderer emerged, are once again costing us blood."
The stabbing yesterday comes a month after Rabbi Meir Hai, a 40-year-old teacher and father of seven, was killed when gunmen opened fire at his car on the road near the settlement of Einav. The Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades and Islamic Jihad both claimed responsibility for the attack.

|Comfort Food Feeds the Body and Soul
1 large sweet onion
1 half bag of baby spinach
1 half box of whole wheat macaroni
1 block of neuchatel cheese
1 cup parmesan cheese
1 cup of skim milk
1/2 tsp, of sircha sauce
1 tsp. butter
1 tbs. olive oil
Sea salt and pepper to taste
And here we go... Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel and cube the butternut squash, cut sweet onion into 1 inch cubes and toss with 1 tbs. of olive oil. Roast the squash and onions for forty minutes or so until softened and beginning to brown. While the vegetables are roasting, cook the macaroni and set aside. On the stove top melt cubed neuchatel with the tsp. of butter and the cup of parmesan cheese, adding the milk slowly, whisking the cheese sauce until smooth. Whisk in the siracha sauce. Salt and pepper to taste. When the vegetables are done, stir together the cooked pasta, cheese sauce ,roasted vegetables and spinach.Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Bake the pasta mixture for 30 minutes foil covered. Enjoy with a sauvignon blanc, as I did, with thoughts of crackling fires and thanksgiving plans, which is right around the corner.
A couple of green tomatoes were still dangling hopefully in the garden. I picked them, breaded them in a panko, flour mixture and fried them in some olive oil as a side dish. The last produce of a growing season come and gone did not go to waste.
Make it, eat it , love it. I know you will.

Death by Parking
Death by ParkingBook 2: The Rendezvous
Chapter 4 - My Questions Get Attention
I was feeling pretty good as I left Dad at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Grace was not in danger, and no one had been hurt in the follow-up shooting in the ER. I headed over to Grace's office on Olympic to do some first-class detecting. It was about a 15-minute drive, down Robertson to a right on Olympic, through Century City, past the 405 and on to the so-called Olympic Corridor.
Century City is a designer complex with residential high-rise condos and retail shopping and restaurants built on the back lot of Fox Studios. Alcoa Aluminum was one of the partners in the project, and they say that if you look straight down at the development from above, the matching 60-story triangular-shaped theme towers form the familiar Alcoa logo. If you are anybody in the media or legal profession related to it in L.A., your office is in Century City.
The Olympic Corridor is the "second Century City" on L.A.'s west side. There are about half a dozen relatively new mid-rise office buildings, with some second-tier media, financial and service companies filling them out. It's a modern section of L.A., but has a rich history.
Around the turn of the century, Japanese immigrants settled there and planted wonderful gardens throughout the area. Even today, you can see some in overgrown backyards, with the quiet art of the gardener mixing with the ravages of Mother Nature. However, WWII and subsequent internment took their toll, and when the residents returned, most of their properties were gone. They did resettle in the area, however, and Sawtelle Boulevard, which bisects Olympic, has become home to Japanese plant nurseries and to sake and sushi bars.
The parking structure was next to Grace's building. I drove in and went straight to the roof. It was empty, but I did notice that you could walk directly from the office building onto the roof of the garage, and that the entire roof was visible from the offices on that side of the tower. Grace had told my dad and me, just before the shot was fired, that she had seen suspicious activity on the roof -- two cars coming up to the roof daily, something changing hands, and then both leaving. I had thought drugs, but who knows?
I went down to the building office and asked for the security director; he had recommended our firm to Grace when the LAPD hadn't expressed a lot of interest in her story. I wasn't surprised to recognize an old friend.
The law enforcement community is a small one. And even though I was new in it, Dad's contacts and the fact that I grew up working cases with him meant I knew a lot of folks, including retired Santa Monica Deputy Police Chief Bill Shannon.
Outsiders think of L.A. as one big city, but in reality, there are a lot of smaller communities with their own police departments, such as Beverly Hills, Culver City, El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Torrance and, of course, Santa Monica. Senior officers who retired after 30 years were in demand, particularly by property management companies, to serve as heads of security. Bill was one of them.
"Hi, Paul," Shannon said. "I thought you or your dad would be showing up pretty soon. I heard about the OK Corral activity at Cedars. Everybody OK?"
"Yes, Bill. No injuries, but I think Bill Vose was under attack. He was heading the LAPD press response team. Dad took him for a drink while I came over to check with you."
It's always best to give your seniors the lead. I was still considered a pup by most of the enforcement officers in the area. I had quickly learned to defer to them. We settled into Shannon's basement office, got coffee, and he began to talk.
"Grace told us she had seen two cars showing up every day on the roof of the garage next door. She was suspicious and, being a nosy gal, she actually went down to snoop around. When she did, she was spotted and chased but thought she had lost them. She must have been wrong."
"She came to me and I recommended that she call you two. I figured you had nothing better to do than squire a nice gal around and test your white charger protecting the pure and innocent. I didn't think you would get her shot up."
That last line got my dander up. "For your information, bucko, we are on this like white on rice. Dad and I will get the guys who shot her."
He held up his hands. "OK, OK, don't blow a gasket. You have your dad's temper and, I have to admit, his 'always get the girl' looks. You know, I actually almost asked your mom out on a date before she married your dad. I guess the word 'almost' is why I'm still a bachelor."
"OK, peace. Now where do I go from here?"
Shannon leaned back in his chair. "Magnum Properties, the owner of this building and my employer, also owns the garage next door. We have a private firm running the lot. It was built when the building was put up to meet the parking requirements set by the city.
"As usual, there are twice the number of spaces than we need, and that top floor is always empty," he said. "The connecting walkway runs from our third floor to the third floor of the garage, next to the elevator tower. Grace's office is on the ninth floor, overlooking the garage roof.
"She is some kind of graphic designer with Media Matters, that ad agency that just took over the Hollywood Bowl and Getty museum accounts," Shannon said. "I think she does very well ... just right for a guy like you."
Sheesh - Bill had tried to set me up. I guess my love life, or lack of it, was common knowledge in the retired law enforcement set. Enough of this; I had to get moving ... over to the garage and see what I could find. I thanked Bill, told him I would keep him in the loop, and walked next door.
I went to the garage office and spoke to a fellow who looked like the manager.
"Hi, I'm Paul Manning. I'm a private investigator looking into the shooting of Grace Lundquist. She parked in your garage. Can you tell me anything about her?"
He said nothing but entered something on his computer. "Grace Lundquist, $150 a month, works for Media Matters next door, lives on Armacost, drives a 2003 Accord, 4ABC123. That's all I know. When was she shot?"
"Today. Mind if I look around."
"No, go ahead, but I don't know what we have to do with that. This is just were she parked her car."
He printed out Grace's info and handed it to me. That in itself surprised me. As I walked out of the office, I thought I saw him reaching for his phone.
The garage was four levels, and I would guess about 200 spaces per level. It was, as Shannon had said, about half full. Most of the cars were on the first and third levels - with easy access to the building next door. I walked around to get the feel of the place. There appeared to be only two employees: the manager and the booth attendant at the exit. The sign said it was run by AB Parking. Where had I heard of that before?
As I started to walk to my car, two of the biggest guys I had ever seen stepped out from behind a column. Obviously, my questions had gotten someone's attention. I didn't hesitate for a second. I slammed my heel into the big one's instep, and he fell into the bigger one. I then kicked the bigger guy in his stomach, walked to my Jeep, drove carefully around the writhing bodies, paid my fee at the exit and left.

will my baby be ok? any advice?
my baby is 5 months almost six months and this past month she's fallen off the bed 4 times, I feel so bad, I'm just so worried that the falls might effect her development, the bed is only 3 feet and she lands on carpet,and each time she fell she only cried for about 3 mins and she seemed fine after that, but I stll feel like a bad mother for letting her fall so many times, so will the falls effect her development in anyway?

I would have to agree with PP. I have an almost 5 month old and if he fell 3 feet I would freak out. And 4 times!!! How does a baby fall off the bed 4 times? I mean crib, middle of the bed, putting things around so your baby isn't falling. I'd start child proofing. Only put the baby in their crib or playpen. Babies are pretty resilient, but I wouldn't feel safe with 4 high falls in a month(the baby is falling from a height greater than their own). If you have to put your baby in the bed then put the mattress on the floor and put pillows and blankets around it.posted 10/26/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
Why is she falling out of the bed? a 3ft fall is pretty hard :( and can be dangerous. At 5 months i would keep her in a crib until she tries to climb out, then a toddler bed with safety rails.posted 10/26/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

Been having issues with charging for the past couple of days. When I plug my phone into the charger it states that it's charging, but nothing really happens. The troubleshooting so far:
- Have tested it on multiple different chargers, all having same problem. However, my Nexus7 tablet will charge normally on these chargers, so we can rule out it's charger related.
- Tested for differences with the phone switched on or off. When phone is switched off it will charge, but not with the speed it normally does.
- Running CM11 Snapshot M9. Did a clean install. Battery does not charge normally (read 1% gain per 20 min) on most stripped down version (without gapps + personal apps)
Looks like it's battery related. But I find it difficult to rule out what's causing my phone to act funny. The weird thing is that sometimes my phone will go for a decent charge, but this happens so randomly that it's hard to find any form of sense in this process. Also, when the phone is on and charging, the battery light will sometimes turn off. But when I activate my phone again, the battery light will bleep on as if nothing happened and everything is functioning normally (which is clearly doesn't).
Does anybody have an idea how I can fix this? Any helpful tips that can point me into the right direction to figure out what's causing this? Many thanks in advance!

The Moon Pie Just Got A Whole New Meaning
By admin | September 7, 2011
Did you ever think there would come a day when a company would create a plan to develop a restaurant on the moon? Well if you thought this was never possible think again as Domino's Pizza is ready to make this dream somewhat of a reality.
Domino's Pizza has developed a Moon Branch Project website where a step-by-step plan has been put in place to showcase how they are going to supposedly build a 3-story pizzeria on the surface of the shimmering moon. Read More

Subject: Snow Buntings, Dakota Cty
Today around noon I enjoyed seeing a small flock of 11 Snow Buntings. They
were feeding along the road in an industrial park area with large open
fields, about a mile northeast of Randolph, MN, west of hwy 56. They must
have blown in with the wind yesterday, and they landed very close to my car,
so were easily observed.

A London-based start up has developed an app that enables Google Glass to be controlled by brainwaves.
The MindRDR app links up to Google Glass with another piece of hardware, an electroencephalography (EEG) headset, making it possible to take a picture without moving a muscle. The headset picks up on brainwaves to correlate to one's ability to focus, monitoring when the wearer engages in high levels of concentration.
Within Google Glass's 'screen' – a small window that appears in the corner of the wearer's right eye - a white horizontal line is shown. As a user concentrates, the white line rises up the screen. Once it reaches the top, a picture is taken using Glass's inbuilt camera. Currently, Google Glass is controlled by voice commands or tapping the side of the device.
Start-up The Place has released the software for free to encourage developers to adapt it for other uses.
A Google spokesperson told the BBC that Google has not reviewed or approved the app, but said it is always interested in hearing about new applications of Glass.
Google Glass launched in the UK last month in beta phase – consumers can buy a pair for £1,000. They are available with prescription lenses, while frames are being designed by names including Diane von Furstenberg and produced by the likes of Luxottica and Oakley.
Industry observers expect that beyond their prototype phase, Google Glass's price tag will shrink, with the cost of the wearable tech eventually akin to that of a smartphone.

What's your favorite foreground plant
I've decided to get into planted tanks, and will carpet my ten gallon "learning tank" What is the best one for the job and why?
I'll be using Flourite substrate, a 96, 6700°K watt CF light, and will be using this CO2 unit: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Produc...&N=2004+113779
-Chain Sword
-Java moss
-Dwarf Hairgrass
dwarf hairgrass, because it is easy to maintain, and it looks like an aquatic lawn- and it doesnt mind being trimmed.
just click the picture and it should take you to a larger picture.
anything that doesnt get eaten :D
java moss, very very easy to take care of, good to hide fry and as spawning substrate, will carpet, easily grown, doesnt need much light or CO2. Barely a chance any fish will eat it.
i tried ricca and it lasted all of 2 hours is java moss distasteful to fish? i find the main culprits are my keyholes
yeah java moss doesnt taste good for fish
i love dwarf hair grass im trying to find some but i cant find any ( i dont want to give my credit card number on the internet)
E. tenellus and dwarf sags.
Take your choice, with 96 watts over a 10 gallon you can grow anything! Including tons of algae. Make sure your CO2 levels are over 30ppm at all times and make sure your plants have all the nutrients they need. You will likely see your nitrates bottom out in days if you don't dose as well as most of the rest of the nutrients the plants need.
With that lighting you can do Glasso, Hemianthus Callitrichoides (HC), dwarf hairgrass, and pretty much anything else and all of them should stay low because the light will keep them low.
I would really like to see a diary of this tank when you get it started.
I would also consider getting a pressurized system but you might get along with the other unit for a while. Just make sure the levels are 30-50ppm and stay above 30ppm.
Now if it isn't 96 watts then ignore me, ;).

"All day, all day." Those were the words uttered by Florida state safety Myron Rolle before Monday's Music City Bowl in Nashville, Tennessee.
Florida State came into their 26Th consecutive bowl game having already faced the music of 23 suspensions, but the Noles stuck together and fought with everything they had.
FSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher says, "We competed in the and game and we carried ourselves the right way. No matter what the circumstance, we kept battling in the football game."
Seminoles linebacker Geno Hayes adds, "We fought the whole game. We didn't give up. No matter how many points they scored, we weren't going to give up. That was the game plan... not to give up, no matter what the score was and no matter how many people doubted us or whatever, we still had the mind set to come out and win."
FSU's offense was spearheaded by a gutsy performance by Drew Weatherford. The junior signal-caller used his legs to move the ball and scored twice on the ground.
Rolle says, "We're still Florida State and you know we're going to battle no matter what. No matter if we;re 34 players short or if we had the whole squad here."
Weatherford adds, "How hard they fight, how hard they want it, they'll never lay down and I just hope we can take that same mentality into the offseason."
FSU's offensive MVP for the season, Preston Parker, says, "We put a lot of effort in. You can look at the score. Everybody thought we were going to get blown out. 85% had us losing. We lost, but we gave a fight. When we had 11 people out on the field, we still gave a fight."
Florida State head coach Bobby Bowden says, "They probably played as hard as any team we've had had play maybe for ever. I was real proud of our players."
The Noles would have one last shot. They came up short, but FSU battled all day, just like Myron Rolle said they would.

Call for Papers
Sponsored Sessions
Post-War Scholarship and the Study of the Middle Ages I-II:
In anticipation of the seventieth anniversary of the end of World War II, the University of California, Berkeley Program in Medieval Studies will hold two sessions on the enduring scholarship of the Middle Ages that emerged in the post-War era. We invite abstracts for 20-minute papers on two of the most prominent intellectual figures of the period, considered in light of their own contemporary moments and their lasting influence in our own. One panel will be devoted to Erich Auerbach, and the other to Ernst H. Kantorowicz. These two scholars have contributed deeply to our understanding of the Middle Ages and to the methodologies we use in our studies--literary, historical, philological, political. "Figura" and "the king's two bodies" have become commonplace concepts, which carry particular meanings precisely because of the work done by these thinkers. And their work has also helped the Middle Ages to remain in the peripheral vision of those scholars working in other and later fields. Auerbach's theory of representation, for instance, lies behind Fredric Jameson's (who was Auerbach's student), and Kantorowicz's work has recently motivated a debate among such diverse thinkers as Giorgio Agamben, Simon Critchley, and Eric Santner. At the same time, citations of their work by Medievalists have declined steadily since the 1980s, while their ideas have become ever more ingrained in scholarly assumptions about the Middle Ages. It is time now to revisit these ideas and directly address the intellectual contexts in which they were formed. We welcome all abstracts that engage directly with the work of either Auerbach or Kantorowicz, show their contemporary relevance for medieval studies, or detail their influence on contemporary theoretical debates.
Please submit abstracts and the Participant Information Form via e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com by 15 September 2013 or earlier.

Report Finds Great Lakes Ice Cover Has Decreased a Whopping 71 Percent in 40 Years
Posted By Mark Boyer On March 14, 2012 @ 11:24 am In Environment,global warming,News | No Comments
If you live near the Great Lakes, you've probably noticed that recently they've been better suited to kayaking than ice fishing. A new report published by the American Meteorological Society [2] now confirms what people living near North America's greatest fresh water resource have long observed: because of climate change, Great Lakes ice is in severe decline [3]. Using a combination of satellite photos and Coast Guard scanning from 1973 to 2010, researchers found that Great Lakes ice cover has dropped by an average of 71 percent.
"There was a significant downward trend in ice coverage from 1973 to the present for all of the lakes, with Lake Ontario having the largest, and Lakes Erie and St. Clair having the smallest," according to the report.
The study's lead researcher, Jia Wang, from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told WBEZ [5] in Chicago that reduced ice can speed up winter evaporation and lead to lower water levels, which can then leave the shoreline exposed and more vulnerable to erosion. The loss of ice can also signal earlier algae blooms, which harm water quality and the marine habitat.
The study doesn't take the most recent winter into account, but the trend is continuing. According to the Duluth News Tribune [6], only about 5 percent of the Great Lakes' surfaces froze this winter — well below the 40 percent average. Further proof: In Buffalo, the ice boom was removed [7] from Lake Erie in late February, the earliest on record since the boom was installed in the winter of 1964-65.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) -- Michael Campanaro caught three first-half touchdown passes from Tanner Price and Wake Forest took a step closer to becoming bowl eligible with a 28-14 win over Boston College on Saturday.
Campanaro tied an Atlantic Coast Conference record with 16 receptions for 123 yards and became only the eighth player in school history to catch three TD passes in a game.
Price was outstanding, completing 39 of 57 passes for 293 yards as the Demon Deacons (5-4, 3-4) bounced back from a 29-point thrashing last week to No. 9 Clemson.
Wake Forest came in with the lowest-scoring offense in the ACC, but looked sharp early with Price hooking up on touchdown strikes of 5, 27 and 16 yards to Campanaro to build a 21-7 halftime lead.
Chase Rettig threw for 357 yards for Boston College (2-7, 1-5), but turned the ball over four times, three of those on interceptions.

Chapter One: Heaven
In Heaven there are 1,637 steps from my house to the Western Union. You have to walk by a playground and four stores - two clothing, one food, and one hardware coffee shop. After you pass those stores, you cross one street and hop over a deadly looking grate. (I once heard about a man who got struck by lightning while standing on one.) Ten steps past the grate is Ma's Superette.
(If you can't find it at Ma's...she even sells live bait on the side.)
Ma's Superette is open 23 1/2 hours a day. Ma closes it from 4:10 A.M. to 4:40 A.M. every morning. She uses the half hour to pray. At least that's what she says she uses it for. When I said differently one day Pops said I was skeptical and not spiritual at all.
That made me mad 'cause hadn't I put all my allowance in the Salvation Army kettle last winter? Sometimes Pops just doesn't get it. He even said a while ago that because I was just fourteen I didn't understand about life, but I wasn't about to hear that. Sometimes he gets so mad at me, he just shakes his head and mumbles that I'm just like Uncle Jack. Then he tosses the thought away I guess and smiles at me, every time.
Anyway, Ma's was the place you could get nachos and nail polish, Levi's when you needed them, and flip-flops for the summer. I'd already gone through two pair and it's only the middle of June.
Heaven might sound pretty boring to most people, but before I really understood about all my years at the Western Union, it was fine for a girl like me.
I don't get sent to Ma's for bread and milk like most kids, but to wire money. I've been doing it ever since I've been allowed to leave the yard by myself. It's something I thought most kids did. It's something I found out a little further down the road that made me different from every other kid in Heaven.
