Phelps Liable for $10.9 Million
Timothy Kincaid
October 31st, 2007
Rueters is reporting that a jury ordered Westboro Baptist Church to pay the family of a serviceman whose burial service was picketed by Phelp's church.
The jury in federal court determined that the Westboro Baptist Church based in Topeka, and three of its principals had invaded the privacy of the dead man's family and inflicted emotional distress when they protested at his funeral last year.
This bothers me in a few ways.
First, I am in favor of protected speech, even vile disgusting speech like that of Fred Phelps and his family. While there is no question that this celebration of the poor kid's death was disturbing, I don't like the precedent this sets. Perhaps as I hear more about the details – such as whether the protest was on public property or at a private funeral home – I may reconsider. But I recognize that my speech could be unwelcome and distressing to anti-gay activists or devoutly religious bigots.
Second, I can't help but wonder if the outcome would have been different had Westboro been picketing a gay person's death. I somehow suspect that the family of the serviceman was held by the jury to be more deserving. Perhaps I'm cynical, but I doubt they would have given $2.9 million to a grieving same-sex spouse.
UPDATE: The final award was much more:
The federal jury first awarded $2.9 million in compensatory damages. It returned in the afternoon with its decision to award $6 million in punitive damages for privacy loss and $2 million for distress.

Spa News: CCL Holdings Acquires Two Bunch Palms
The California-based resort will continue to emphasis healing and wellness under new management.
Hospitality and real estate private investment company CCL Holdings has acquired California's Two Bunch Palms resort. The old leadership team, including Kevin Kelly as chief executive officer, John Trudeau as managing director and Rianna Riego as executive director of brand and communication, will remain in place as the resort is transferred to its new management company, JRNL Two Bunch Palms, an affiliate of CCL Holdings.
The iconic, 75-year-old resort was recently rebranded to emphasize healing and wellness, including the location's healing waters, a multi-million dollar renovation and the addition of a farm-to-table restaurant, and a brand-new, 550 KW, 3.5-acre solar farm, making Two Bunch Palms fully carbon neutral. Additionally, Kevin Kelly revealed plans for a new world-class spa and wellness centre, a second hot mineral springs grotto and swimming pool, and additional hotel rooms in early 2016.
Says Tim Chun, vice president of CCL, "We're very excited to share the vision that has been started by the previous owners and move forward with the next phase of expansion."
"Two Bunch Palms is leading the industry as the first sustainable wellness resort of its kind in the country, and we are thrilled that CCL is committed to promoting sustainable wellbeing," said Kelly.
Two Bunch Palms was recently named best Corporate Brand Committed to Sustainability in the Green Spa Awards.

SHA Wellness Clinic Launches New Bioenergetic Unit
The Spanish wellness clinic's new Bioenergetic unit will help clients achieve an ideal balance of body and mind.
The renowned SHA Wellness Clinic near Alicante, Spain recently launched a new Bioenergetic Unit, adding to its wide range of pioneering services. Operated by Dr. Ana María Oliva, expert in biotechnology, the therapy aims to help clients attain the perfect balance between the body and mind.
Inspired by Oriental medicine, Bioenergetic Therapy focuses on recovering both the physical and energetic balance in the body, using the electromagnetic energy field produced by the body, in order to attain full health and overall wellbeing. "The main advantage of this approach is that it helps us detect signs of imbalances before a lesion or certain diseases occur," says Dr. Oliva.
Bioenergetic medicine believes that the language of the body (expression, posture and breathing) reveals the story of the individual. The therapy consists of examining the overall physical-physiological condition of the individual and what causes the imbalance. Guests at SHA Wellness Clinic will now be able to avail themselves of the Bioenergetic Therapy services, with the aim of eliminating stress, preventing disease and improving overall wellbeing.
Dr. Oliva adds, "Some of the most common causes of energy imbalances are stress, excess viral loads, the existence of imbalances in the body's 'ecosystem' (fungi, bacteria, parasites) and the excess of electromagnetic contamination." After the diagnosis, electromagnetic signals stimulate self-healing by using non-invasive techniques.

Repêchage Presents the Latest and Greatest at 2015 International Congress of Esthetics and Spa
Repêchage Professional Skin Care went back to Philadelphia for the event, where the skincare brand introduced attendees to the latest trends and newest developments.
Repêchage Professional Skin Care recently ventured to Philadelphia, PA to present the latest in skincare trends and the newest developments from Repêchage during the 2015 International Congress of Esthetics and Spa. Show-goers were able to experience Repêchage SeaSmooth Artisan Seaweed Wax at the Repêchage booth. Voted "Best Wax of New York" in 2015 by New York Magazine, this new wax from Repêchage is infused with select seaweeds, Safflower Oil, Zinc Oxide, and Titanium Dioxide – a formula that allows for less irritation, redness, and bumps.
Corporate Educator Lindsay Ramaglii demonstrated how waxing can be relaxing, performing the full Repêchage SeaSmooth Artisan Seaweed Wax Experience. This new wax ritual starts with a dry brush exfoliation to prevent ingrown hairs and remove dead skin cells, is followed by hair removal with the Repêchage SeaSmooth Artisan Seaweed Wax, and a soothing massage with Repêchage Skin Relief Soothing Gel and Repêchage Vita Cura Triple Action Nutrí Oil. During this treatment the client is treated to a hydrating and soothing Repêchage Lamina Lift Mask.
Spa and Salon professionals on the west coast were also presented with Repêchage's newest groundbreaking treatment for hypersensitive skin and rosacea, the Repêchage Hydra 4 Red-Out Facial and at-home products, Repêchage Hydra 4 Red-Out Calming Cleanser and Hydra 4 Red-Out Serum. Always at the forefront in the latest developments in skin care ingredients, Repêchage is using a revolutionary ingredient for sensitive skin in this treatment and products: Micro Silver. Research has found that one possible cause of rosacea are skin microbes that thrive on the skin. Micro Silver has been proven to be anti-microbial, reducing the bacteria in which microbes thrive and therefore helping soothe inflamed and irritated skin. Repêchage is the first skin care company in the U.S. to utilize this new skin care ingredient.
Additional research has also found that one of the biggest aggravators to hypersensitive skin and rosacea is the reaction to free radicals, with the most common being Reactive Oxygen Species (or ROS) found in air pollution. Seaweeds are one of the richest sources of natural anti-oxidants to combat ROS, containing ingredients such as phlorotannins, sulfated polysaccarides, fucosterol and fucoxanthins. For this reason the new Repêchage Hydra 4 Red-Out Facial utilizes several seaweeds, including Laminaria digitata, Ulva compressa, Ahnfeltia concinna, and Ulva lactuca, along with a bevy of anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients including Quercetin, Rutin, Mirabilis Jalapa Extract, and Hyaluronic Acid.
Attendees were able to experience this treatment firsthand at the Repêchage booth, and Repêchage Corporate Educator Michelle Roche discussed the science behind the treatment to a packed classroom during her presentation of "Introducing Real Professional Solutions for Rosacea & Sensitive Skin."
To see the Repêchage team will be next, visit www.repechage.com or call 1-800-248-SKIN.

Would these pepper corys be happy?
If I had 4 pepper corys, 1 bristlenose pleco, and 1 bolivian ram for bottom swimmers.
6 cardinal tetras and 6 rummynose tetras for mid-water swimmers.
And 2 female mollys for top swimmers.
In a 20 gal. tank.:fish:
That's going to be too many fish.
I would forget about the mollies (or platys, guppys, swordtails), they need hard water and get quite big, the others need soft water.
Assuming appropriate water parameters, the cardinals, rummynoses, bristlenose, and corys would be doable (maybe go ahead and get 5 cories). It would be a little crowded at the bottom though, as these all like the lower part of the tank. Maybe replace either the rummynose or cardinal with something that prefers the upper levels like black neons, head and tail light tetra or even pencilfish.
I think thats going to be nearly fully stocked. But factors not listed could affect this, i.e. plants, 20 tall or long, filtration.
If cardinal and rummynose tetra's are your choice ,I would submit that they like much warmer water than many of the cory's appreciate.
Cardinal's and rummynose would appreciate 78 to 84 degree's while the cory's seem to burn out quickly(month's) at temp's much above 76 degree's in my expieriences with them.
Sterbai cory's would fair much better at tropical temp's that the two Tetra species mentioned enjoy.
Opinion's vary.
Bristlenose appreciate water with some movement and plenty of dissolved oxygen which seem's to benefit them.
Have seen them dart to surface frequently much like cory's when oxygen level is low, and or water is stagnant with little or no movement.
Just my two cent's.
Thanks for your advice. I have a 20 gallon tall and instead of getting the mollies I got 2 silver hatchetfish and instead of the bolivian ram I got an angelfish. I am not adding anymore fish. Thank you.

Chan Lowe: Obama strokes the Latino community
If I were a Latino, me estaría herviendo la sangre (my blood would be boiling) right about now.
El Presidente came down to El Paso on a campaign sweep, paying lip service to the notion of immigration reform, but he was really laying it out to the Latino community this way: "Vote Democratic, because we'll only show you benign neglect, whereas the Republicans really have it in for you."
The greatest continuous gift the Republican Party lavishes on the Democrats is its harsh and inhumane immigration policy, which not only offends moderate sensibilities, it's even opposed by the very business community the GOP purportedly serves.
Why? Because businesses and moderates don't vote in Republican primaries. Those who do vote base their attitude toward immigration on a gut reaction rather than reason ("I resent folks who aren't like me, who come in here spoutin' their jabber, who grab a slice of the American Dream they don't deserve, and who take jobs that I wouldn't work anyway").
So the Republicans, being shackled to this loser policy, will never claim a significant portion of the Latino vote as long as the Dems don't screw it up.
But Dems being Dems, they can mess up anything. They're on the verge of it now by not trying hard enough to come through on the promises they made to Latinos (the ones they always make at election time) that they would help grease the way for them and their loved ones to be assimilated into American society. Obama has some political juice, but he's not about to blow what he has on them. He's got bigger fish to fry with debt ceilings and other matters. The problem is, he's always got bigger fish to fry.
So the reason for burning all that aviation fuel to get Air Force One to El Paso was, basically, to throw empty candy wrappers at the crowd in hopes of enticing them out of their casas on election day. It may not be enough this time.

Did anyone else think that play where Rahshon got from the wing all the way to the rim in a split second for the dunk was the best move he has ever done as a Cyclone?! I'm not talking just dunk or a play where Blalock or someone else set him up because then of course everyone would say the dunk against Virginia. I really thought this is what we would be seeing of Clark this year, maybe its a sign of things to come next year
he has unbelievable hops, but people seem to only talk about a crazy dunk or put back he had on offense, but he is SUCH a great defender. Remember the job he did on Durant? I would hate to have the ball in my hands and have to go one on one against him.
Originally Posted by isucyclone4

And to think he is just learing to play man-to-man at the college level...due to our previous style of play.
When did the play happen? I recorded the game, but I haven't seen it.
It was toward the beginning of the game.. he got by his guy in less than a second and had a dunk to finish it!
It was a very sweet move. It'll be on SportsCenter for sure. A swift move down the baseline from about the 3 point line and a nice one-handled slam finish.
That's the Clark we know from last season.
I agree. There isn't a player on the team that plays as hard or unselfishly as Rahshon. What a quality young man to stick around after the defections, knowing full well he'd have to adjust to a new coach and new style of play. This kid plays hard, does what the coaches ask of him and wants to win more than anything else. He's the last kid you would ever see in the police blotter of The Daily and I just love his attitude. Here's to hoping Rahshon will go out a winner and contribute something special his senior season.
I only got to watch the first half becaue of class but Clark looked a lot more aggressive on offense today. A positive sign in my eyes, he has the athleticism and talent, it just seemed he never got going (confidence) this year. So hopefully next year starts better for him and everyone!!
Not only that, but he nailed a really tough double clutch shot a few plays after that. Rahshon is beginning to take smart shots and develop an offensive game. He's got the athleticism, all he needs is the poise and some improvement on his shot and he could be the real deal next season.
Agreed 9seven. I've actually seen him slowly improve on offense in the last couple games. Very good to see. Could be very powerful next year if we can expect the same and more from him.
Unfortunately, the one area of the game that I though Coach Mac messed up on coaching was not having Clark on Carter to begin the game, or at least early in the 1st half. Wesley and Jessan had some success at home on Carter, but as soon as he got going today, Clark should have been on him. Looking at the stats, Godbolt was shut down in the 1st half (when Clark was on him) and Carter in the 2nd half.
I hope people that have previously posted negatively about Clark open their eyes to the effort he is providing on D. If you look at the players he has defended - Rush, Carter, Durant, Bruce, etc - to a man their stats go down when he is on them. If there is one travesty in the All-Big 12 teams it is that Clark was not on the All-defensive team.

Check around the fifteen-minute mark in the first half. I think it was at around 13-4 or so when it happened - I was trying to listen on the radio at work.

he had 4 fouls in 17 min, Ceasar played much more, not exactly stifling defense.
Someone who has played a lot more Bball than me can shed some light here, but I think it takes a lot of experience, and timing to make those spectacular flying dunks work, and certainly a guard that sees the floor and makes pin point passes. A relationship R. Clark developed with Blaylok and Stinson before their first seasons as Cyclones. Also something we saw with Clark and W Johnson more often in the last few games. Better things are coming!
Could anyone who taped the game upload Rahshon's dunk to YouTube? I didn't see it on SportsCenter...

BMW [1] has unveiled the BMW Concept Active Tourer plug-in hybrid [2], which is a preview of BMW's upcoming compact MPV with its new eDrive hybrid [3] system. According to BMW, the Concept Active Tourer is geared towards customers of the premium segment who appreciate a high level of comfort, a raised seating position and a generous amount of space.
The eDrive system from the BMW i8 [4] is used here for the first time in a model from BMW's brand, and the eDrive name will be the designation for all electric and plug-in hybrids from BMW. The BMW Concept Active Tourer is powered by a turbocharged 1.5L three-cylinder engine that sends its power to the front wheels and an electric motor sits above the rear axle. The BMW Concept Active Tourer has a total of 190 horsepower and the electric motor [5] and lithium-ion battery can power the concept up to 18 miles in full electric mode. It can also go from 0 to 62 mph in under 8 seconds with a top speed around 125 mph. According to BMW [1], the concept's fuel consumption is less than 2.5 liters per 100 kilometers.
On the outside, the BMW Concept Active Tourer features classic BMW [1] design traits like the kidney grille. Its overall footprint is about the same as the BMW 1 Series [6], but it is slightly wider and taller. The interior is also full of new technology like a multifunction instrument display that uses Black Panel Technology and a "Cool Shade" panorama roof that can adjust the amount of light that enters the interior with the touch of a button.
The BMW Concept Active Tourer will have its world debut later this month at the 2012 Paris Motor Show [7].

Nearly 300 registered Colorado voters will get letters asking them to prove their citizenship in the next few days.
The same move in this swing state before the presidential election last year prompted liberals to claim Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler, a Republican, was trying to tilt the race by intimidating minorities or others who might vote for Democrats.
Gessler, however, said Thursday his goal hasn't changed: to establish checks that weed out noncitizens, regardless of liberals' outcry.
"My job is to protect our elections," Gessler said. "That's what I said I was going to do when I took office. The law says only citizens can vote in election. That's the law. That's my job."
The people getting the letters were flagged as possible noncitizens through use of a Department of Homeland Security database. Separately, the same agency approved the letter that was being printed Thursday, Gessler's office said.
Gessler's opponents contend he is spending time and taxpayers' money on an effort that will yield few, if any, scofflaws. Last August, Gessler sent out 3,903 letters and turned up 35 voters considered noncitizens. The Denver Post and other news organizations found some of those 35 actually were U.S. citizens.
Gessler notes that the letters last year went out before the Department of Homeland Security gave his office access to its Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements database.
When the federal agency granted that access, the number of suspected noncitizens fell to 1,416. Further investigation found 35 had a history of voting in at least one election.
"Gessler has tried to create this bogeyman since the day he was elected," said Ellen Dumm, a consultant on voting issues and former executive director of Campaign for a Strong Colorado, a liberal coalition that includes One Colorado, Progress Now and Mi Familia Vota.
"These are almost always rare instances of noncitizens on the voter rolls through clerical error and confusion. He needs to concentrate on encouraging people to vote."
She pointed to data from Gessler's office that indicated that of more than 12 million ballots cast in general elections the past decade, Colorado has logged only 16 election offenses.
Gessler countered, "The reason we've had so few prosecutions is, one, nobody is looking for the problem, and when it does come up, prosecutors don't take it seriously."
Once people get the letters from Gessler's office, they can voluntarily remove themselves from the voter roll. If he or she wants to prove citizenship, or fails to respond, the local county clerk should hold a hearing. After that, the person could be prosecuted.
Gessler said that in most cases last fall, county clerks "didn't do their jobs" to hold hearings on suspected noncitizens. This time, he said he will make sure they do.
Elena Nuñez, executive director of the left-leaning Common Cause, said Gessler's procedures would intimidate new citizens who are eligible to vote.
"A new citizen gets a letter from the government saying there are legal problems with their registration, then they're not going to show up and vote out of fear of getting arrested," she sad. "That new citizen is caught up in a bad process."
Nuñez said many interest groups need to be involved in creating the procedures, and not just Gessler, who she says has shown a partisan bias.
In January, Gessler supported an unsuccessful bill that would have given him greater authority in purging the voter role of noncitizens. The bill was killed by Democrats on a 7-3 party-line vote before a House committee.

Planting Wheat? Hessian Fly-Safe Date is Not Only about Hessian Fly
Ken Wise
return to top
Several questions have come in this week regarding the recommended timing for planting wheat. For years, the standard recommendation for profitable wheat production has been to plant wheat after the Hessian fly-free date. This recommendation is based on the fact that at the dates indicated on the map below, Hessian fly adults would no longer be alive.
Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor, is a species of fly that is a significant pest of cereal crops including wheat, barley and rye. Hessian flies emerge in late summer, mate, and then oviposit in different types of grasses among them wheat. Adult life span is extremely short, perhaps only a week, during which time they do not even feed. After this short time span, adults die off.
The larvae of this small insect feed between the stem and leaf sheath near the base of the plant in newly established wheat in the fall and again in the spring. Damage during the fall causes stunting of the new plants; the spring and early summer damage results in unfilled heads and fallen straw. Look for the small white maggots and brown puparia (the resting stage, commonly called "flaxseeds" for their resemblance to the flat spindle- shaped seeds of flax) deep within the sheaths of the lower leaves in the weeks just before wheat harvest.
The fly-free date is set at a time when it is expected that the adults have died and are no longer around the area. As a result, damage caused by this insect will likely much less if wheat if planted after the specific date fly-free date in your area. Note the dates shown on the map are adjusted for altitude i.e. higher elevations = earlier Hessian fly free dates. The recommendation is to plant wheat only after the fly-free date for your area but as soon after that date as possible. Ask your seed dealer about the availability of Hessian fly-resistant varieties.
Use of the recommended Hessian fly-free date guidelines has kept damage to wheat from this pest to a minimum in NY. However, the Hessian fly-safe date is not only about the Hessian fly. Another excellent reason to plant wheat after the fly-safe date is to minimize problems with diseases, especially aphid transmitted diseases such as barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV).
BYDV is transmitted by aphids and tends to be most severe when transmission occurs in the fall. Research has shown that aphid populations tend to crash after the fly safe date due to unfavorable weather conditions (think first frost), leading to fewer problems with BYDV. Planting date studies conducted at OSU have shown that BYDV problems and yield loss associated with this disease are much higher when wheat is planted well before the fly-safe date. Planting after the fly-safe date also minimizes early establishment of other diseases such as Stagonospora blotch and leaf rust.
Corn Ear Rots
Ken Wise
return to top
While scouting fields this week I can across some corn ear rots in the field. These can be an important issue if you are feeding this to dairy cattle or other animals, since some fungi create mycotoxins that are toxic to livestock. Taking a few minutes to check a field for certain ear rots can help you determine if you want to feed your field of corn to livestock. Pull back the husks on several plants and look for the presence mold growing on the ear of corn. The following are specific symptoms of certain ear rot diseases that can be found in NYS:
Fusarium Ear Rot appears as a white-to-pink or salmon-colored mold. This mold can begin with bird, deer or insect-damaged kernels. Fusarium ear rot may contain fumonisins which are mycotoxins that can be toxic to livestock.
Gibberella Ear Rot symptoms are pink to reddish colored mold. This disease starts near the tip of the ear and progresses down toward base of the ear. Gibberella can produce vomitoxin and zearalenone which is toxic to many kinds of livestock.
Diplodia Ear Rot symptoms appear as a thick white mold that usually starts near the base of the ear. This disease can also appear on the plant as raised black fruiting bodies on moldy husks or kernels. Diplodia does not produce any known toxins.
Cladosporium Ear and Kernel Rot symptoms appear as greenish black, blotched or streaked kernels scattered over the ear. This disease can also infect kernels that have been damaged by insects, birds, deer, hail, or frost. The disease can progress after the grain is harvested and stored.
Penicillium ear rot or blue eye symptoms range from a powder-like green or blue-green mold that is on and between the kernels and normally on the tip of the ear. If this disease progresses in storage it is referred to as blue eye because the germ is a bluish-green color. Penicillium ear rot can produce a mycotoxin called "ochratoxin".
1= highly effective, 2= moderately effective, 3=slightly effective, 4= not effective, 5 = not usually economical,

Anybody have lower pelvic pain when stretching? (Miscarriage 9 wks ago)
Often when stretching or arching my back I get a sharp shooting pain right at the front of my vagina leading up to stomach (below belly button). this causes me to not be able to straighten up for few seconds. I did get this a couple of time when I was pregnant only when lying down and if I coughed. Sounds silly but its really painful and I wondered if anyone else experienced this?

Re: FTP to SalesForce (XML format Error)2012-01-30T10:48:28ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.Hi Suresh,
Can you give me a little more information? It looks like Express has processed an FTP file from your source - did it upsert any records to salesforce.com? Did the activity feed in Express tell you some records were updated?
There isn't necessarily anything wrong with the XML output you've pasted in here, assuming that there were no records in the source FTP file to be processed, and that Express correctly informed you of this. The stylesheet warning is being added by the browser you are using to view the XML output.
Re: FTP to SalesForce (XML format Error)2012-01-30T11:41:12ZThis is the accepted answer. This is the accepted answer.Hi Suresh,
This XML looks like the output from the transformation step of the integration. It suggests that the file retrieved from the FTP source was found not to have any records. (Normally, there would be child elements inside the objects element, one for each Salesforce.com object produced as a result of transforming the records contained in the input file.) Were you expecting to see some number of records in this case?

Thanks for the reply.
Things which I had done
1.Created simple table in salesforce with fields Name,EmpNo,Dept
2.Created a single record (Sam,1001,IT) in excel sheet and saved as "People.CSV"
3.Uploaded the People.csv to the ftp server.
4.Mapped the csv file columns with salesforce object.
5.Started the transformation.
After few seconds I get the following message in the express Integration activity.

Wife not liable in coach lawsuitJune 12,2014Wife not liable
in coach lawsuit
BENNINGTON A judge has ruled that a civil lawsuit filed in April against Leo Reynolds, a former Mount Anthony Union High School girls basketball coach, doesnt apply to his wife.
Reynolds, 67, formerly of Bennington, is facing four pending felony charges in Bennington criminal court of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child and one pending felony charge of aggravated sexual assault on a child younger than 13, for allegedly touching a 7-year-old girl in Bennington on several dates including on Christmas Eve of 2013.
The lawsuit, filed on behalf of the girls parents, sought to preserve the money from the sale of Reynolds home while the suit was still in court.
The home, however, belonged to Reynolds and his wife, Pamela Reynolds.
During a hearing in Bennington civil court in May, the attorney representing the family said he had no evidence that Pamela Reynolds knew about the alleged sexual abuse but asked Judge Katherine Hayes to preserve the money from the sale of the house in a trust while the lawsuit is active.
In a ruling dated May 23, Hayes said the facts known at this point do not demonstrate that (Pamela) Reynolds was even aware of the alleged sexual abuse. Under Vermont law, a person is not liable for a spouses illegal acts unless the person authorized or directed them.
Hayes said the law didnt allow the court to give the lawyer representing the family time to investigate whether Pamela Reynolds knew about the alleged assaults.MORE IN This Just InROCKINGHAM Wildlife will be celebrated at the 17th annual Herricks Cove Wildlife Festival...

So here's a question ... what exactly has improved with this new software?
The announcement says we have a "fresh new look", which most people don't like because we can't read it anymore.
The announcement also says, "We have many new features, as you will see from the new buttons and bells" ... but I haven't noticed anything new at all. All the buttons I can see are the same as what there were before.
So what improved? What are the new features ... the "new buttons and bells"?

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- At the beginning of November, I wrote an article -- 2013 Prediction: Apple and Facebook Will Fly, Intel Will Die -- that was widely read throughout the halls of Intel (INTC - Get Report).How do I know this?
I don't want to be anywhere near Intel. I can't put faith in the dividend yield providing support above $20 as erosion of the company's core business continues. I'm afraid INTC in the teens becomes a reality next year, if not sooner.And here we are, with INTC fighting -- sort of -- to scratch and claw its way back to $20. It's so bad that it's not just fighting to get back to $20, it has to fight just to scratch and claw. Some suckers will buy this thing in the near-term on value. Has Intel accelerated its dividend payment yet? If it does, we might see a pop. Fiscal cliff deal? That's good for some upside. Don't believe and definitely don't buy into the hype.

Not "Just" a Beauty Queen
These days, women (and men) are getting recognized for more than just their looks.
In today's Journal, I write about the Slug Queen Pageant in Eugene, Ore. The contest was created partially in response to rebel against the conventional pageants in the area. Contestants have included men and women of all ages and walks of life. They're judged for their slug savvy, creative (and often green) costumes and they are encouraged to bribe the judges. This year, Marie Slugtoinette won the title. Twenty-six years later, the slug queens are still bucking the Miss America stereotypes.
While researching for this story, I stumbled upon some other pageants online that don't quite fit into the "conventional" realm either.
Miss Klingon Empire in Atlanta — Contestants dress up as Klingon women from "Star Trek."
Miss Drumsticks Competition in Arkansas — Connected with the town of Yellville's turkey festival, the lady with the best legs wins top prize. The rest of the body is obscured to ensure fair judging of the gams.
Miss Lez Pageant in New York City — Men and women compete in New York for this anti-title. "Lez" originated from "LES," short for Lower East Side, the neighborhood in Manhattan where it was born, the story goes.
Prairieville Farm Days Granny Pageant in Delton, Michigan — Grandmas fight for this quirky title. No doubt, they brag about their cute grandchildren backstage.
National Watermelon Queen — Sponsored by the National Watermelon Association, this traditional beauty pageant, aims to prove that watermelons are agriculture, too!
Miss Outdoor Life in Maryland — Contestants are rumored to "skin muskrats" during the talent portion. Woodsiness wins.
Miss Exotic World in Las Vegas — Honoring the best in burlesque.
North Dakota Honey Queen — This pageant seeks out represents the best and the brightest in the beekeeping industry.
Hairy Chest Competition in Fairbanks, Alaska — Exactly what it sounds like — a celebration of body hair.
What do you think of traditional beauty pageants? Which alternative pageants would you like to see? And which pageant would you win? — Mary Pilon

Not-for-profit higher education institutions have the reputation of being slow to change; unresponsive to market demand; and unimaginative with respect to delivery modes. This is beginning to change, however, and one is starting to see more interest in approaches that differ from the standard 12-15 credits, semester-based, course delivery method.
While this change is positive in many ways, it is important for the entrepreneurial minds developing new approaches to remember that federal financial aid regulations, and most higher education software systems, in many ways are still driven by traditional delivery modes. Consequently, it can be very difficult to ensure compliance with federal regulations when providing financial aid to students in programs with alternative delivery modes (e.g., accelerated, cohort-based, off-site, study abroad, non-standard term, etc.), particularly in an environment that is still predominately classroom and semester based. For example, some aid offices find themselves trying to manage a very large number of payment terms for programs that have start and end dates that are just a few days outside of the standard term. In short, we call this "Entrepreneurship Run Amok".
Interestingly, for profit institutions have taken a structured approach to offering flexible, market sensitive delivery modes. In short, their "alternative approaches" are consistent, although they may be different from a standard semester approach.
Bottom line, when designing a new delivery approach to meet market demands, the implications for delivering administrative services must be considered. Otherwise, service can deteriorate, additional staff may be necessary, or compliance with regulations may be compromised. Ideally, faculty would meet with IT and financial aid representatives before settling on the parameters of the new program to ensure that it will be as straightforward to administer as possible.
What processes for establishing the parameters for new programs or delivery modes exist on your campus?

by Jean Joubert, translated by Ruth Fainlight; introduced by Andrew McCulloch
I n a review of État d'urgence (State of Emergency, 2008), the most recent collection of poems by the French writer Jean Joubert (b. 1928), the poet and playwright Claude Vercey said that, while the poems had clear pictorial shape, they kept to the shadows between dreams and waking ("une composition fermement dessinée, bien que se tenant à la frontière entre rêve et réalité"). Joubert's translator Ruth Fainlight inhabits a similar world: Peter Porter said of her collection Another Full Moon (1976) that, as well as unearthly beauty, it had "the steadiness and clarity of the moon itself". And the affinity is clearly reciprocal. Three years after Fainlight's version of Joubert's poem appeared in the TLS, he published his own translation of her collection – Encore La Pleine Lune.
This push-and-pull between the seen and the unseen, day and night, waking and sleep, can also be felt in Fainlight's attitude towards writing poetry, a process she describes as "a unique combination of unassailable laws and the entirely unexpected". This may have been part of what drew her to Joubert's poem. Although "Birthplace" may not look like one, it is in fact a sonnet. The sixteen lines of the first two stanzas are a kind of double octave, the twelve lines of the second two a double sestet, which bracket the sudden stillness at the heart of the poem as the secular annunciation takes place. The moon – the goddess of poetry – is a silent onlooker here, inspiration a night-long, in-drawn breath that, with the dawn, "exhales" the poem, "the promise of a child".
That wind which all at once rises in the night
like a hurt voice, like the breath
of those who have crossed the threshold,
loosed the thread, were suddenly swept
into a formless space, into a heavy rain of ash
where the last glimmers
of a stifled fire prowl and flounder,
that wind which one would say
meant snow on the tulips,
which brought the April lilacs
to their knees in the garden –
assails the house, sucks at the empty rooms
wants to speak from a thousand blurred mouths
wants to breathe the nearness of the secret
to the one inclined towards it –
unexpectedly permeable, bodiless.
Empty chair, lowered curtain, dust-curls
and the staircase where an old smell lingers.
A ghostly hand brushes the banisters,
hesitates and fades away.
A hair on the floor startles the ants,
and the coat hanging behind the door
mimes the absent one, the half-made gesture.
But with dawn, the wind drops, licks the earth,
nuzzles and probes it,
then spits out seeds and pollens
and, within the sweet odour of death,
exhales the promise of a child.
Jean Joubert

2013 Southern Scuffle: Taylor's Revenge & the Prequel to NCAA's
2013 Southern Scuffle: Taylor's Revenge & the Prequel to NCAA's
Willie Saylor, Editor
The Southern Scuffle has always been a great tournament. But this year's storylines are almost too good to be true. From both the team race to the compelling individual match-ups, this year's Scuffle will serve as an NCAA prequel.
- Dake-Taylor II
Alright, we got the "Match of the Century," with all its pageantry and fanfare at the All Star Classic. But it was a tentative bout from both guys. With a potential match-up still looming at NCAA's, will both guys open up? Can you imagine if they unleashed their offenses?
Will David Taylor get his revenge against the baddest dude in college wrestling, Kyle Dake?
- The "Other" Match-up of PSU-Cornell Returning Champs
Dake-Taylor gets all the headlines. But don't forget, Ed Ruth and Steve Bosak are on deck. Ruth, as an undefeated returning NCAA Champ, might be the most dominant wrestler in the country. All Bosak did last year was win the deepest bracket at NCAA's and beat the defending champ in the finals.
- Oliver's Quest
Jordan Oliver, one of the slickest takedown artists in the game, has looked sharp in his rare two-weight-class jump from 133 to 149. He majored returning All American Nick Lester earlier this year. But that's considered a minor test to what he will potentially face at the Scuffle.
Returning NCAA and Big Ten Runner-Up, Dylan Ness and the pinning machine that is 4th-ranked Andrew Alton will be in Oliver's bracket. Along with Cole Von Ohlen and Nick Brascetta, 5 of the Top 7 ranked 149's will be in Chattanooga.
- Beasts At the Top
With 10 returning All Americans back this season, the Heavyweight class in Division I is loaded with talent. The Scuffle will truly serve as a mini-NCAA tournament at this weight this year.
Three of the Top Four nationally ranked wrestlers are in the field including returning NCAA Champion Tony Nelson, #2-Dom Bradley, and #4-Alan Gelogaev, who has split matches with Nelson.
Additionally, young guns Jeremy Johnson and Mike McMullan, both AA's last year, are also expected in the bracket.
- Three #1 vs #2's
There are three brackets that, if the pundits are right, would result in NCAA finals.
Dake vs. Taylor, Ruth vs. Bosak, and Nelson vs. Bradley.
-Half of the Nation's #1's
Oliver, Dake, Perry, Ruth, and Nelson
-Six of our Ten Pound-For-Pound
#1-Kyle Dake
#2-Ed Ruth
#3-David Taylor
#7-Jordan Oliver
#8-Tony Nelson
#10-Chris Perry
Be sure to catch the action this year in what will be a tournament for the ages. Watch the live webcast on FLO. Existing Tech Wave members are set. To sign up for Tech Wave click here.

If you have a child who wakes up screaming and is inconsolable, read on…
Dear Lauri,
Would you ever consider writing a newsletter about babies' dreams? My 4 month old has terrible nightmares; you can see they're nightmares from watching his face asleep between screams. What are they dreaming about? How can we help them? -Mary, Chicago
Lauri: My goodness Mary. What a horrible thing for you to witness. It sounds like your baby could be having night terrors… but, I've never heard of a child that young experiencing a night terror. Night terrors usually begin around age 3.
None-the-less, a night terror is different than a nightmare in three ways…
1. a child doesn't fully wake up from a night terror. They scream and scream and, despite your efforts, just don't snap out of it easily.
2. Once awake, they can not remember what was so terrifying.
3. Night Terrors do not happen during REM sleep (when we dream), which explains why the child can't recall the dream that was so frightening… because there usually is no dream!
Night Terrors are still a mystery, but research seems to indicate that the cause is due to
a rough transition in sleep cycles. The brain goes through many cycles while sleeping, 5
stages actually. Night terrors seem to happen in stage 4 sleep, right before entering REM,
when dreaming takes place. When these transitions do not happen smoothly, a night terror
can happen. And the reason the child is so hard to wake up, is becuase stage 4 sleep is
the deepest and most unresponsive to outside stimuli.
Here's what you can try: Have your baby sleep with the light on, not a nig ht light but an
actual light. This has proven to prevent night terror episodes in many children. Also,
try putting a wave machine near the baby when he is sleeping, something that makes the rhythmic sound of the ocean. This seems to help balance out those precious little brain waves and will help ensure a smooth transition into each cycle, therefore preventing a night terror episode.
I would also like you to ask your pediatrician about this. He or she may be aware of other cases
of night terrors in such a young child and can better direct you on what you can do. But rest
assured, it is not harmful at all… only extremely upsetting for the parents! If he is having
night terrors, he will grow out of it and there are things you can do in the meantime, such as what I have suggested above.
One final question, did you or did anyone else in your family suffer from Night Terrors? It tends to run in the family.
Mary: Oh yeah. me. I had night terrors in college and would wake up with bleeding lips and my sheets all across the room. At the time I was away from home and my mom had cancer and my boyfriend had depression. Perfect setup for bad sleep! And at the time, I didn't know about you or I might've called you and asked you to translate the dreams and help me out– it would've been well worth the money, that's for sure!
I can't believe you wrote such a detailed response to me personally! Thank you soooo much and I'll try everything you suggested!
Lauri: Awe… you're very kind.
I'm glad you grew out of 'em! Now that your son seems to have inherited that lovely gift, you'll need to work on managing it. And just remember, it's harder on you than on him. He's going to have no recollection of these episodes.
And if he continues to have them when he is older, I suggest trying to snap him out of it by saying something completely silly and off the wall like, "Look at the furry pink elephant in your doorway!†If that doesn't work, for your sake, just toss some water in his face. He'll snap out of it pretty quick! It's not harmful, just makes him a little wet. And this could save you many many torturous minutes of trying to get him to wake up.
Good luck to you.

Was given this same print by parents when I was 10 yrs old & always remembered it so after 60 yrs I was so thrilled to come across it again. The selection of Franz Marc paintings you have is super. I purchased a larger canvas print & the quality was excellent. Good piece to design a room around. I have purchased several other prints from Art.com & very happy with service, quality & selections. I did the wider wood framing & in hindsite I think a matting & thinner wood frame would have been a better choice.

- The Print
- The Artist
A true visionary of his day, Franz Marc produced canvases that brim and overflow with color and compositional tension. Although he painted mainly animals and scenes of nature, he portrayed them in a hyper intense style seemingly at odds with the tranquil subject matter – spiritually charged colors, violent twists and turns, and a pervasive intensity and charged atmosphere. Element of this style were also characteristic of many of his peers - Wassily Kandinsky, August Macke, and Lyonel Feininger – with whom he co-founded the seminal Der Blaue Reiter group, an artist collective that staged some of the first truly modern 20th century exhibits. Sadly, his life was cut tragically short, when at the age of 36 he was killed at the frontlines of WWI before his reassignment letters could reach him; but his passion and artistry live on in his unique body of work.

341st Missile Wing Safety
11/27/2013 -
MALMSTROM AIR FORCE BASE, Mont.
-- Once Thanksgiving dinner has been consumed, most people get right into holiday mode. The tree goes up, the decorations come out and the lights come on. Decorating is often an event that involves friends or family; with some keeping it rather simple and others mimicking the Griswold's.
When kicking it into holiday decoration mode, many are caught up in executing their plan without considering some of the hazards associated with the task. What is meant to be a joyous time can quickly turn into a painful one.
The numbers are eye-opening. Over a five-year period, approximately 1,100 home fires per year were attributed to holiday decorations in the United States, not including tree fires. On average each year, there are between 200 to 300 tree fires. In an average year, 10 to 15 thousand injuries that require medical care occur due to holiday decorating; nearly 6,000 of those are related to falls. The result is a needless loss of life, limb and property. Accidents are 100 percent preventable; taking a few steps can eliminate the risk.
Real trees in the home
They make the home look and smell wonderful, but if not properly cared for, real trees are simply tinder. Ensure that trees are watered and kept away from a source of heat such as a heater or open flame. You can avoid the fire risk by going artificial; many are "fire resistant" and most retailers carry scent sticks that hang on the tree to provide that "fresh cut" fragrance.
Decorating the tree and home
Many glass ornaments are fragile and become cut hazards if broken. Keep this in mind when decorating, especially with little ones in the house; consider shatter-proof ornaments. Homes are also often decorated with flowers, poinsettias being a plant of choice for the season. If accidently ingested, poinsettias can cause allergic symptoms, especially for small children and pets.
Watch those fire sources
Along with the holiday season comes colder weather. Many homes in the area have fireplaces; stoking a fire can provide warmth and a visually appealing holiday setting. Candles, although not helpful in the heat department, are popular among holiday decorations. Never leave a fire source unattended and keep them away from materials that may easily catch fire.
Stringing those lights
Injuries often occur from individuals falling off ladders or roofs while putting up lights and decorations. Avoid overreaching to prevent falls and have another person available to keep ladders stable. Before running lights on and around the house, check electrical cords for frayed cables and tears in insulation. If any of these are present, be sure to take that strand out of service as they can increase the potential for an electrical fire.
When turning in for the evening
Be sure that all fire sources are extinguished. Turn off all lights or place them on a timer to automatically shut off.
Decorating for the holidays can be a happy time. By taking a few steps to decorate safely, everyone can be sure that the season will be both a happy and healthy one.

Contact:Ursula Ristau-Schaefer
Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher (RYT200). I offer private instruction for people interested looking for more in life. Do you want to be the best you can be in fitness and in health? Want to look and feel younger and healthier? Want to loose weight and knock off the years? Achieve the results you want with sustainable effect, and have fun then consider joining me to discover the joy in yoga.
I teach vinyasa flow yoga. The word vinyasa means "breath-synchronized movement." It is a dynamic, beautiful and powerful form of yoga. Poses flow from one to another in combination with the breath. In other words, one will be instructed to move from one pose to the next on an inhale or an exhale. This technique is sometimes also called Vinyasa Flow, or just Flow because of the smooth way that the poses run together and become like a dance. Through movement and breath I aim to unlock the body's natural flow and integral energy.
Yoga improves flexibility, strengthens and tones the body, energises the mind while helping to relieve the stresses of daily life.
My goal is to guide students to greater self-awareness, good health through the practice of yoga. Come and join me on this journey and feel the energy behind the breath.
