Unified Access Is Cisco's Next-Gen Strategy
Cisco unleashes updates to the Cisco Unified Access architecture, bringing new switches and infrastructure capabilities that enable software-defined networking and sweeping device policy management capabilities, making it likely that CUA will be the backbone of Cisco's networking strategy.
Send to Kindle
Cisco Systems Inc. is expanding its Cisco Unified Access (CUA) "umbrella" with a line of switches and WAN controllers that leverage CUA technology to streamline BYOD capabilities, network administration and policy enforcement. Cisco is endeavoring to provide sweeping scalability of enterprise networks by alleviating the headaches of traditional network environments where wireless and wired environments were managed as two separate entities.
Today, the Cisco Unified Access update includes a focus on VPNs, software-defined networking and traffic shaping, with the Cisco Unified Access Data Plane (UACP) allowing for traffic termination, consistent service maintenance and programmable interfaces that link into Cisco's latest networking devices:
- Cisco Catalyst 3850 and 5760 Unified Access Switch with built-in wireless LAN controller.
- Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) 1.2, allowing admins to create a single policy for multiple points of access for multiple devices, in addition to MDM integration with popular vendors like Mobile Iron Inc, Zenprise Inc., SAP AG, Good Technology Inc. and Airwatch LLC.
- Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.0, bringing a full visualization of network operations for simplified orchestration and a "360-degree" experience of apps of services.
- Cisco onePK open architecture for SDN, a new developer toolkit to improve the software-defined capabilities of Cisco's latest hardware solutions -- a key component in Cisco's future SDN strategy.
The next-gen data center can be defined a few different ways, but herein, it's viewed as stacks of hardware and software that work in unison with each other, both accommodating the needs of the next-gen workforce, which includes everything from smartphones, tablets, VoIP equipment and wireless "things" like printers.
"Cisco Unified Access allows customers to achieve these goals by moving away from individual vertical stacks of technology and disparate components toward a single architecture for an intelligent network," said Rob Soderbery, Cisco's senior vice president of enterprise networking, in a prepared statement.
This is why Cisco is positioning the CUA advancements as the basis for "the Internet of everything," allowing for a new environment of network-enabled applications, appliances and even security interfaces. A unified network can give solution providers a more holistic management solution, as all connected devices, big to small, can be managed, configured and enforced the same way. This will streamline the delivery of external cloud services and linking those services to devices on the network.
Late last year, Chambers said Cisco was working through a transition in aligning its portfolio with future needs -- it's fair to say an overhauled CUA is a good start, as it offers a foundation for an interoperable networking backbone. It's an attractive proposition for burgeoning businesses and a smart way for Cisco to maintain relevancy in the years ahead.

A bill that attempts to streamline the application process to build cell phone towers in North Carolina is getting a poor reception by local governments.
Wireless industry groups argue the current process is pricey and slow on many occasions. They point to tens of thousands of dollars they often must pay so cities and counties can hire consultants to review company applications.
The cities and counties are opposed to the changes. They say they'll have to spend taxpayer dollars to make up any difference between the costs and a proposed cap on consultant fees.
Bill sponsor Senator David Hoyle says the industry wants some cost certainty and the ability to build out the wireless phone market in North Carolina.

Sexcapade Files #32: The Illicit Office Affair – Part IV
posted 4/7/2011 7:02:28 PM |
what's this?
report abuse
As the days went by, the sexual tension between my boss just kept on getting stronger, the sexual acts became more vigorous, more dangerous, and more enticing. This is my story, and I'm sticking to it. :-)
Last week was definitely a week of more sexual foreplay, so much of it that now I really want him to fuck me, to feel his hard cock inside of me, making me cum intensely that I feel my pussy squeeze as much cum out of his hard cock as possible. Our days usually consist of mainly: work, hanging out, smoking, and "playtime". Here is a rundown of one of the most memorable "playtime sessions":
This was the first day we ended going further than just touching each other, and after he had teased my breasts in his hands, kneaded them and sucked my brown nipples into wrinkled nubs, he pulled out his trusty mattress, took a sheet and my trusty towel and lay on the bed. Without any fanfare (mainly because we had teased each other for so long), he rested his head between my open legs, and stroked my pulsing engorged clit, first with the length of his tongue, then with the tip, moving from outer pussy lips to inner, tasting and feeling my cum go from watery wet to sticky, as he carefully licked it with such skill and experience that I felt my hands clenching the sides of the bed, my hips bobbing up and down, riding the waves of sexual ecstasy that I could hear myself whimper and moan.
He slipped two fingers into my pussy, as he first thrust them in, then he twisted them inside of me, feeling my pussy tighten up as he played, still feeling his tongue dance along my slippery clit. He then puckered his mouth around my clit as if to suck on it, but instead, I felt his lips gnaw on my clit, and suddenly I felt the pressure build up, more and more, until I came and squirted all over the towel and on his face. A few seconds later, he raises his head, and the bottom part of his mouth and jaw is shiny from my pussy juice. As I catch my breath, he waits a few minutes, then moves his head back in between my legs, for a total of 4 squirts in that position, in a half hour, the fourth squirt being the most memorable, mainly because a lot of pussy juice gushed out from me.
I told him that now he would have to keep his promise, now that he had made me come 4 times: I get to suck his cock. He lay on the bed, and I lay on his stomach, my head facing his cock, 69-style. I looked at his cock – brown, thick, uncut, about the perfect size for me (about 7-8 inches). It had a pretty clean smell to it – it had a slight manly smell, but not too pungent to where I didn't want to suck it. I took his head in, sucked on his head, licking the slit, and then I shoved the whole thing in my mouth. It was rather difficult sucking his cock, mainly because he was distracting me by licking my clit the whole while, and the fact that his upper torso was a lot longer than mine definitely gave me a bit of a strain, but it was a nice sexual challenge to suck his cock, sliding my hand up and down on his foreskin, massaging his balls while licking his head, teasing his vein. I lay on his stomach, sucking his head, while I felt his tongue dance on my clit and vagina, feeling his tongue slide in and out of me.
Soon, he had me flipped back on the mattress, his head again between my legs, where I squirted one more time, but as he licked me, he was rubbing his cock, wanting to come as I came, so after I had come, he raised his torso, and I saw his thick brown hand stroking his cock in thick strokes. I told him to come to my head because I wanted to swallow his cum and he obliged, quickly hobbling on his knees to my head, and as I licked his head, he finally came, and squirted his sperm load into my mouth, and cleaned his head with my mouth. His cum tasted very clean, the sweetest cum I had tasted. Later on, he admitted to me that from all his years of having sex, this was the first time he had ever cum in a woman's mouth. So I guess I've taught him a thing or two...:-)
Later on that afternoon, we did another quickie on his bed, where he made me squirt one MORE time that afternoon – definitely one that lasted about 10 minutes, but we ended the day with me squirting 6 times within a span of sexual activity of 1 hour...not bad for the first day, right?

Your Opinion: Advocates aid foster children
Friday, December 17, 2010
Dear Editor:
Imagine you're six years old. Plucked from home for your own safety by badge-wielding strangers. Separated from siblings. Fate unknown. And it's Christmas.
Nearly 10,000 Missouri children will spend Christmas in foster care. It's heartbreaking. To be sure, we all do what we can, particularly this time of year, for families less fortunate than our own. It's a great feeling, and a valuable lesson for our kids, to dispatch Santa to another child's home. But let's do one better. Let's send a guardian angel to every child in foster care.
Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) is already working on it. CASA trains volunteers to advocate in juvenile court for children who are removed from abusive homes and placed in state custody.
In this scary limbo, CASA's dedicated lay volunteers watch over and stand up for their "CASA kids" to see that they receive appropriate services, spend as little time as possible in the system, and ultimately land in safe and secure homes. And it works. National studies confirm that CASA kids get more services, spend less time in foster care, and are far less likely to re-enter the system than children without CASAs.
Currently there are about 1,200 CASA volunteers serving roughly 2,200 children in Missouri. The other 7,800 foster children in Missouri do not have a CASA.
The mission of the Missouri CASA Association is to expand CASA services throughout the state by supporting 22 existing local programs and creating new programs in unserved areas. No single one of us can eradicate child abuse or play Santa to the countless forgotten children in our community. But by supporting CASA now and into 2011, together we can ensure that every Missouri child will spend next Christmas in a safe, permanent, and loving home. That's a New Year's resolution worth keeping.
For information about supporting CASA or becoming a volunteer, visit www.mocasa.net or call 573-256-1445.

The Strangest Pitch for the Presidency So Far
Jim Burroway
October 7th, 2011
GOP Presidential candidate Sen. Rick Santorum pitched the most oddest reason for voting for a candidate to the Values Voter Conference so far. Get ready for this one:
"When you look at someone to determine whether they'd be the right person for public office, look at who they lay down with at night and what they believe," Santorum said.
Let's see if any of the other GOP candidates can top that for wierdness.
By the way, was that a shot at Rick Perry?

Planners detail ways cities can prepare for newcomer influx
San Diego is America's Favorite City.
According to a new survey issued this week by the American Planning Association, San Diego is the top choice to relocate.
The Harris Poll asked 1,040 adults, ages 21-65 with at least two years of college education, which top three metro areas interest them as a potential location.
Twenty-three percent listed San Diego, followed by New York City, Boston, Denver and San Francisco. For active baby boomers, San Diego was also No. 1 and for millennials, it ranked third behind New York and Los Angeles.
Economics was at the heart of the study, released Wednesday, at the planners' national convention in Atlanta. Respondents said housing costs and the general cost of living play a strong role in where to move to.
But it's no surprise that the top cities, including San Diego, have the highest housing costs because they are in the most demand, according to the planning group's president, Bill Anderson, the former San Diego city planning director who remains based here in a consulting job.
"If it was the just the price of housing, Mississippi would be the strongest economy in the country," Anderson said.
He offered various ways to reduce San Diego prices, such as building townhouses near transit, shopping and workplaces. He also said better education is important to people considering relocation.
"We're a work in progress," he said. "We've got to keep at it because other cities are trying to position themselves (to attract talent)," Anderson said.
Kelly Cunningham at the National University System Institute for Policy Research said more baby boomers and millennials moved here between 2008 and 2013, Generation Xers, ages 30-44, moved away, declining 7.3 percent over the same period.
"First-time homebuyers are most likely to be Gen Xers, who apparently are moving away and taking their children with them to places they can afford a home to raise their kids in," Cunningham said.
Among the findings, the survey said investing in company relocations is not as effective as investing in local amenities when it comes to growing its talent base.
Mark Cafferty, CEO of the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corp., said the pitch increasingly must be to sell both San Diego's natural attractions and its leading-edge business base.
"Here you can retire or build a career," he said.
He was seconded by Jason Jordan, the planning association's policy director: "I think San Diego is a perfect example when you think of biotech sectors and some industries that have taken hold. There are reasons they want to be in that place. That's part of the strategy."

SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Bright green kayaks, lawn mowers, fitness equipment, bicycle tires and memory foam mattresses are among the thousands of items being prepped for shipment at Amazon's fulfillment center here — the online retailer's second facility in South Carolina.
Elected officials, community business leaders and Amazon associates gathered March 25 for the official opening and a tour of Amazon's newest South Carolina facility, which opened for business in September.
In July, Amazon hosted the grand opening at its first S.C. fulfillment center near West Columbia in Lexington County.

The two facilities are part of Amazon's pledge to invest $125 million in South Carolina and create 2,000 jobs. The Seattle-based e-commerce giant must hit those marks by the end of 2013 to earn incentives offered by state and local governments.
In Spartanburg, Amazon invested $50 million in a 1 million-square-foot facility that employs more than 400 and handles tens of thousands of inbound and outbound shipments every day, the company said.
Amazon is always searching for expansion opportunities and locations for new facilities, said Mike Roth, Amazon's North American vice president, who didn't offer prospective locations.
"We are constantly looking at our nationwide topology," Roth said. "I can't give precise locations of the next couple of buildings we plan to build, but there will be continued expansion in the future."
The Spartanburg facility receives inbound freight from hundreds of retail suppliers and small enterprises every day. The small enterprises use fulfillment by Amazon by sending inventory to the facility to be stored while they sell products through Amazon's website. Amazon then sends the products directly to the customer.
"The fulfillment by Amazon gives small enterprises the opportunity to send inventory to us. It's becoming a very successful part of our business," Roth said, noting that the mega e-commerce site sees continued growth in electronics and general merchandise sectors.
The Spartanburg facility has a training area; sorting areas; an inbound area for goods; and an outbound area where goods are packaged and shipped out by a variety of carriers.
Employees do not need specific skills to work at the facility. They undergo on-the-job training, such as obstacle course driving and placing items in storage, sometimes 30 feet in the air.
"The workforce has been fantastic, and it has exceeded every single expectation that we could have had," Roth said.
During the opening, Spartanburg County Councilman Jeff Horton, Spartanburg Mayor Junie White and Rep. Mike Forrester spoke of Spartanburg's leadership, interstates, future inland port, schools and workforce as some of the attributes that helped recruit Amazon to the area.
"South Carolina's national reputation immediately caught our attention," Roth said. "You don't have companies such as Milliken, Boeing, BMW, Bridgestone, Michelin and many others without a great business environment, a quality workforce and great community support."

Buy Borderlands GOTY, Get Duke Nukem Forever Demo
You'd think the Borderlands Game of the Year Edition sells itself, right? It may, but Gearbox has no problem providing a little more incentive to make this purchase. Word is that if you pick up Borderlands GOTY, you'll get an access key for the "Duke Nukem Forever First Access Club," which will then, at some point, allow you download the Duke Nukem Forever demo before it goes live to the public. And, uh, since Borderlands is a pretty solid game and this GOTY pack comes with all the DLC and Duke Nukem Forever is pretty killer — at least the parts I played — I think you should probably buy this if you don't already have the game.
Now, if you're the kind of person who paid to see Meet Joe Black 15 times just so you could see the trailer for The Phantom Menace on the big screen over and over again, then you probably ought to just buy it regardless of your feelings on the game or whether you already own it and all the DLC. Because you've gotta do what you gotta do, right?
You can get Borderlands GOTY on October 12 on PC, PS3 and 360.

Kane County Sheriff's Office police reports
• A resident of the 6N500 block of Sycamore Avenue in St. Charles Township reported Wednesday, Feb. 26, that he got a credit card bill for an account he hasn't used in several years. The outstanding balance was nearly $6,600, which was accrued between Jan. 12 and Feb. 18. The card expired in December 2013. A new card was activated Jan. 12, but the account holder told police he didn't have the card or activate it.

The plan to revitalize Prospect Plaza, a deteriorated and now vacant NYCHA development in Brooklyn has been given a green light. After weighing resident and community input, as well as the financial feasibility of a mixed-use development, NYCHA and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) are moving forward.
NYCHA has received conditional approval of the new plan for the development of 360 units, which include a minimum of 80 units of public housing. The Re-Vision Prospect Plaza Community Plan, which was developed with input from former residents and community members during a series of planning workshops in 2010, calls for the demolition of the three vacant towers, the construction of new affordable housing units; a community center and retail space.
The first phase of the revitalization will occur when NYCHA and the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) jointly issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) and a developer is chosen by early 2012. Construction is scheduled to begin in early 2013.
During the meeting NYCHA shared the results of a retail market and financial feasibility study commissioned by the agency to analyze the retail component of the plan, which calls for retail on the Saratoga Park site. The study, conducted by AKRF, Inc. and G.L. Blackstone & Associates LLC, found that there is demand for a supermarket in the area and recommends including this in the RFP along with another anchor tenant such as a pharmacy, among other options.
Prospective tenants of the new affordable housing will have to undergo credit checks and income verifications to ensure that NYCHA is in compliance with the federal government's funding requirements. To help former residents meet the new financial standards for the affordable housing units, NYCHA's Office of Resident Empowerment and Economic Sustainability has partnered with the non-profit groups, Credit Where Credit Is Due and Brownsville Partnership to offer a free Financial Management and Education Program exclusively for former Prospect Plaza residents.
"I have a bit of a credit problem but nothing too big," said a former resident who has been attending meetings since planning for the new community began. "If I get help, it will make me feel confident that NYCHA is doing something for me."
NYCHA Board Member Margarita López called on all the former Prospect Plaza residents to take advantage of the credit counseling opportunities because Prospect Plaza will be re-built and they need to be ready when it's time to return. "We are not going to leave one stone unturned until we talk to every former tenant to offer them the opportunity to come back," said Commissioner López.

County officials hope to reduce the number of juveniles detained within the criminal justice system here by joining Indiana's Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative and using its grant money to create a more effective juvenile justice strategy.
Criminal justice experts including Bartholomew Circuit Judge Stephen Heimann agree juveniles who are a danger to themselves and to others should be detained in a secure facility.
"But for some juvenile offenders, detention is going to be harmful," Heimann said. "We need the knowledge to understand what procedures are most effective for each individual, based on his or her own unique circumstances."
To ensure each young offender receives an individually tailored, evidence-based intervention, $5.5 million in state funding will be spent in Bartholomew and 10 other counties during the next two years, according to the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute.
Bartholomew will be one of 18 Hoosier counties joining Indiana's 8-year-old Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative.
JDAI funds will be used to eliminate unnecessary detention of youths, reduce racially disproportionate contact, improve outcomes and welfare of youth and keep the public safe while saving taxpayer money, according to the institute.
Most of the money will be spent to hire a juvenile justice strategist, who will collect and analyze local data in an effort to create the most equitable, efficient and effective juvenile justice system possible, Bartholomew County Juvenile Magistrate Heather Mollo said.
The remaining funds will be used on computers, software, other materials and expenses, Heimann said.
Analyzed data will go to a collaborative group made up of representatives from the courts, local government, detention administrators, schools and child services organizations.
This group will have the responsibility to tap into the community's human and financial resources to develop policies and procedures that will ensure that each juvenile offender is put in the right place for the right reasons for the right amount of time, Heimann said.
"We already have a core group in the community that understands what we're trying to do with this process," Heimann said, referring to a Youth Services Center advisory board, which includes representatives from mental health, schools, probation, law enforcement, and the Indiana Department of Child Services. "We'll be adding to that group."
The expanded organization will have access to the JDAI network of more than 200 jurisdictions across the country, as well as support for training, technical assistance and travel to state and national conferences and training sessions.
The information will be used to determine the effectiveness of current programs for juvenile offenders, as well as established local alternatives such as electronic home monitoring, Mollo said.
The information also could lead to new programs, Heimann added.
In 2012, 276 juvenile offenders were detained at the Bartholomew County Youth Services Center while an additional 273 were brought to the facility on a drop-off basis, according to the center's annual report.
While data must be gathered and analyzed before determining how many young offenders might be affected by the JDAI programming, Heimann and Mollo are confident the new program will help reduce Bartholomew County's juvenile detention population without jeopardizing public safety.
State figures show the eight Indiana counties that initially adopted JDAI reduced their average daily population in secure detention by 37.7 percent. There was no evidence of a negative impact on public safety in any of the counties, according to the institute. Repeat offenses by program participants were down 16 percent compared with juveniles in nonparticipating counties.
The two main goals for the Bartholomew County program will be to provide more effective supervision of young offenders who are not being severely detained and to ensure their attendance at future legal hearings, Mollo said.
There are several U.S. communities where the juvenile
justice system is viewed solely as a "court-probation-police" issue, Heimann said. The judge also cites what he calls a "silo" mentality among youth-based services in other cities, which means groups are reluctant to get involved in problem-solving that doesn't fall within their own turf.
The result is that while there's plenty of finger-pointing to assign blame or responsibility, the problem remains, the judge said.
"But in this community, we're very fortunate that we are able to come together and break down the walls of those silos in order to work together," Heimann said.
There also have been instances nationwide where inappropriate punishment has been handed down to a young person for no other reason than a personal grudge or dislike by someone who abused power or authority, Heimann said. He added that he wants safeguards in place to ensure that cannot happen locally in the future.
Bartholomew County became known as a progressive state leader in juvenile justice in 1992 when local leaders
approved building a juvenile detention center, Heimann said.
Known today as the Juvenile Services Center, only one of the four buildings is actually used for criminal detention. Most of the facility is utilized as a shelter, to provide day treatment to abused or neglected children and for educational purposes, Heimann said.
"We've been on the road of having right practices and trying to do the right thing for years," Mollo said. "The Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative is a welcome addition because it's an outside eye coming in helping us look at our data."
The national juvenile justice reform initiative was developed by the Baltimore-based Annie E. Casey Foundation 20 years ago. Its program and core strategies are now followed in hundreds of counties in 39 states and the District of Columbia.
As a statewide initiative that began in 2006 in Marion County, JDAI is supported by the Indiana General Assembly, the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute, the Indiana Department of Correction, the Indiana Supreme Court and the Indiana Department of Child Services.

Fractured Fundamentalisms
Extremism exists in every major faith, and sometimes turns violent
Only a small minority of Muslims would support Osama's full program, but most of the middle classes would share his dislike of "American Imperialism" There are many business people and professionals, who believe the United States now controls the region, economically and politically, and they deeply resent this. Because much of this opposition is mainstream, this creates conditions sympathetic to the radicals. People in the mainstream do not like American foreign policy, and even though they utterly deplore the events of September 11th, they continue to believe that America and the West has no concern for their welfare or their views. They believe, rightly or wrongly, that the United States regards their needs and concerns as unimportant.
Fundamentalism, I said earlier, is nihilistic because it denies crucial and sacred values of the faith. The ideology of Qutb and bin Laden is unIslamic, because Islam condemns violence, aggression and killing, and, like Judaism, holds that to kill even one person is in a sense to kill the whole world. The Quran will permit only a war of self-defense. It holds that killing is always a great evil, but that sometimes it is necessary to fight in order to preserve decent values. This is similar to the mainstream Western ideal of the just war: in World War II the allies deemed it necessary to fight Hitler.
Does fundamentalism inevitably cause violence?
No, it does not. Fundamentalism is most likely to tip over into violence in a society at war or in conflict. The Middle East, which has seen violent conflict for many years, is an obvious example.
But even some Muslim fundamentalists have confined themselves to welfare campaigns. They have opened clinics, taught the people about labor laws, built their own factories where workers have better conditions, and offered free education. Their aim has been to bring some of the benefits of modernity to the people in an Islamic context that makes sense to them. In Egypt, student groups have tried to better the lot of women students, guard them from sexual harassment. Because the universities are often hopelessly overcrowded and ill equipped, they have provided lecture hand-outs and study sessions in the mosques, where people can read quietly, which they cannot always do in the noisy and overcrowded halls of residence. They will take over a lawn or a shady spot on campus and use it as an impromptu mosque, for prayer.

Buy New and Used
really can't give you too much information about this band, but we have
included them here because we actually owned two
of their albums back in the 80's. White Wolf started out
in 1975 as a band called "Slamm", changed their name to "Warrior", and
then eventually settled on "White Wolf". For the greater majority
of their career, White Wolf was a bar band in the Edmonton, Canada area.
In 1984, they landed a recording contract with RCA Records and
subsequently released Standing Alone.
A few of you may remember the song "Shadows in the Night" from this
album. White Wolf toured with fellow Canadian rockers Kick Axe
during this time.
In 1986, White Wolf released
Endangered Species.
The only song released by the band to have been turned into a music
video was the song "She'" from this album. You may also
remember the song "Time Waits for No One" from this album. The
album charted at 114 on the Billboard Top 200. After this release,
they sort of just faded away, much like Ocean Pacific t-shirts, until 2007,
when they released a new album called Victim of the Spotlight.
In 2008, White Wolf could be found on tour in Germany, and performing
locally from time to time. At the time of this writing, the White Wolf Discography was as follows:1984: Standing Alone
1986: Endangered Species
2007: Victim of the Spotlight
2009: Live in Germany

Current National Duathlon and Triathlon Champion Danica Bonello Spiteri has recently took part in the British Duathlon Championships, earning a very respectable 3rd place in her Age Group and 9th place overall in the female category with a total time of 2 hours 42 minutes.
Bonello Spiteri, fresh from her recent success in the European Triathlon Union Age Group championships in Eilat, competed against a number of seasoned athletes, which made it a hard race, as all participants were strong competitors. The first run, consisted of 12km of constant undulation and gravel paths, apart from the fact that there were no flat stretches of road, athletes had to battle strong winds. The Cycle consisted of further undulations and two steep climbs, whilst the down hills were winding and windy which made this leg very technical and hard. The last 4km of the run saw Bonello Spiteri start strong, but was however taken over in the last 800m but a fellow athlete who she had been running head to head with.
"This was a race definitely not designed for any beginners to gain any experience. The terrain and weather conditions made the race very tough for us" said Bonello Spiteri. "Having raced in the European Championships I guess I still hadn't recovered fully, and did not have the edge in the last 800m but I am still very pleased with the result".
Margaret Seguna, Mellieha AC Triathlete also took part in the race obtaining a 6th place in her Age Group. Seguna is fairly new to the sport and is using such races to build her experience for the next season. Seguna commented that this was the hardest race she has taken part in so far but was an excellent learning experience for her.
"Our athletes have shown a consistency in their performance as well as their commitment to gain the best possible experience which will enable Triathlon in Malta to develop further" said Cyp Dalli, President of the Malta Triathlon Association. "The fact that non-National Team triathletes are gaining experience abroad shows the commitment of our athletes and this is something we encourage strongly.
Bonello Spiteri's next commitment will be the International Triathlon Union's World Championship qualifier race to be held in Madrid on the 25th May, where she will be swimming a distance of 1.5k, cycling 38.5km and running a distance of 10km in what promises to be a very interesting race.

My 4 week old only sleeps for 45 minutes at a time, help!
My daughter is on a very good routine of eating every 2.5 hours, but between that time, she sleeps for about 45 minutes, wakes up screaming, by the time she goes back to sleep its about another 30-45 minute nap, then is up again to eat. Is this okay? And even if it is, can anyone provide me with a way to try to change this, I'm not sleeping AT ALL. By the time I fall asleep, she's up again. This can't be healthy for either of us!!

I too have had the same problem. Does she have gas pains? Or is she getting enough Hind milk? I have found I had to alter the timed feedings. I will pick up my daughter, get her down again, and let her sleep. I don't wake her to feed her anymore or else she is overly tired. Maybe you could pump 4oz and feed her and see if she sleeps longer, or if you don't want to introduce the bottle, make sure you nurse her longer. Also, check her belly and her legs. When she's crying is her belly tight and are her legs bunched up to her belly? Also, does it end when she farts or poops? Hope this helps. I would call you DR too and see what they say.posted 08/23/2008 by a BabyCenter Member

MoDOT names chief engineer as agency director
Tuesday, April 2, 2013
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Missouri Department of Transportation's chief engineer has been chosen as the agency's permanent new director.
Dave Nichols was selected Tuesday by the State Highways and Transportation Commission, which oversees the department.
Nichols became interim director March 21, after director Kevin Keith took a medical leave of absence and announced he would be leaving MoDOT on July 1.
Nichols has been with the department for almost 30 years. Commission Chairman Joe Carmichael says a prolonged search for a new director was not needed because they already had the right person.
Keith spent more than 25 years working for MoDOT and was the agency's chief engineer before being named director in November 2010.

Waterfall corner is a recipe for disaster. If any one circuit puts the two front runners in the championship out of contention with injuries and causes several other riders to crash there then it isn't worth the risk of racing at such a place. The circuit must either be re-designed and modified so that there is a better balance of left and right hand corners, or left out of the MotoGP calendar altogether. Valentino would naturally argue against that because he gained some points out of it.

Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte has his eyes set on being more than just a swimmer. The 28-year-old, fresh out of the London Olympics, has embarked on a bit of a mission to build his name as a brand. So far, that's included appearing in a Funny or Die video alongside Patrick Stewart, Simon Pegg, and Maisie Williams, as well as nabbing a guest role as himself in the upcoming fifth season of the CW's soap '90210.'
Clearly, Lochte has dreams of being a household sports personality like Tiger Woods or even like fellow American Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps. To do so, he's even considering another publicity stunt: he wants to be The Bachelor.
Well, at least, as he told Jay Leno, "If they asked me to do 'The Bachelor,' definitely I'd consider it." Speaking on The Tonight Show, Lochte certainly seemed game for a little bit of reality television. "But I would talk with my family first. That's something I'd have to do."
And if the Bachelor doesn't work out -- or maybe even if it does -- Dancing with the Stars is also an option. "The 'Dancing With the Stars' -- I did, in college, I took a dancing class. I got a A. So I think I'd be pretty good at it," he said.
Actress Kristen Bell, who was also one of the guests on The Tonight Show, made a jape about the amount of practice required for Dancing with the Stars that Lochte didn't seem to catch.
What do you think? Should Lochte do the Bachelor or Dancing with the stars? Or both? Or should he just go and train for the 2016 Olympics like the rest of the athletes?

text: 25 June 2012 archive See all show photos FAMILY-RUN Italian label Etro offered a new take on its signature paisley prints this season – giving us what it called "plays-ley". This manifested itself in an ethnic-inspired collection punctuated by, unsurprisingly, elaborate prints – which covered tunics, scarves, loose-fitting trousers and jackets. Luxury played a key role in the label's global adventure – colours were a rich mix of deep purple, navy, ombre and seaweed green, while fabrics came in the form of yarn-dyed silks and soft cottons. Embroidery added a hand-crafted feel, as seen on slim-fitting mandarin jackets. Turbans were the headwear of choice. Colourful, stylish and modern – this is an offering worthy of any traveller planning an Eastern voyage. SEE THE ETRO CATWALK ARCHIVE Ella Alexander Continue reading Back to top

Missouri ballot measure would revise initiative process
Tuesday, January 25, 2011
Missouri voters could be asked to sign an initiative petition changing how future initiatives are considered in the state.
Missouri allows groups and citizens to get questions on statewide ballots through the initiative petition system. Steps include getting a certain number of registered voters to sign petitions.
The secretary of state's office has given approval for supporters to begin circulating a petition they call The Petition Rights Protection Act. The measure would be placed on the 2012 ballot.
The proposal would make it a crime to forge a signature or intimidate someone signing a petition. Signatures would no longer be thrown out because of mistakes by other people, such as those circulating the petition.
And, it would be easier to change an initiative's ballot title without invalidating its signatures.

Stream of Consciousness
like gold in a miner's pan. I move to a new pool and this one, like the last two, is crammed with bass, swimming back and forth like teenagers cruising the square on Saturday night. Still, it's not what I would choose for an ideal smallmouth fishing situation. I'd like a substantial flow of water running over big rocks into a pool. I'd cast into the swift water, let my woolly bugger tumble down the run into the washout and retrieve it as it swings in the current.
The riffle would break up the shadow of my falling fly line, and the fly would move so swiftly that fish wouldn't have time to think-they'd have to react instantly or lose it.
But there's only a limpid pool filled with fish as suspicious as IRS auditors. And I am standing on the bank with my 1040 long form, tipped with some deductions that bring new meaning to the word "creative."
I let the woolly bugger sink among the fish, then deliberately retrieve it. A small bass, maybe 7 inches, follows and then nails it, possibly to beat a charging green sunfish. I set the hook and the fish makes a sidelong run that takes it to the end of the pool. It is no match for 18-pound test monofilament, and I slide it to the shallows, wet my hand and lip it. After I work the woolly bugger free, I admire the little red-eyed, copper-colored fish then free it.
It streaks back into the pool. I believe without any evidence that released fish go back and tell the others not to make the same mistake.
I make a dozen more casts, each time deliberate, each time watching the white end of the fly line for some indication of a strike. The line pauses-no dramatic twitch, just a hesitation. I raise the rod, and a 15-inch bass clears the water a foot or more. He hangs in the bright sunlight, then tumbles back into the pool, lashing the water. He makes a powerful run to the far side, ripping line through my hand, then darts first one way then the other, seeking reprieve.
I work it into the shallow water and kneel to release it. "All right!" I exclaim to the universe. There is no need to explore further. The late morning sun burns hotly through my shirt, and sweat trickles down my face. It is too hot to fish and enjoy it. I have caught my fish and justified my faith in woolly buggers, fly fishing, small streams and life in general

Although the process of switching electric companies is fairly simple and quick, it can take a great deal of time to do the necessary research before making the change. After all, there is no point to switching from a provider with high rates or poor customer service only to end up locked into a contract with a company that is not much better. That is why many people are turning to comparison websites before they switch electric companies. Here are just some of the reasons that so many people use these websites to help make their decision easier.
Save Time and Energy
One of the great things about using a comparison website before switching electric companies is that it can save a great deal of time and energy. Without the use of one of these sites, a person would have to do all of the research themselves and this includes getting a list of possible electricity providers and compiling the relevant information (as well as determining what information is important). These websites make it easy to switch electric companies because they will provide all of this information at just the click of a button so their customers don't have to spend weeks researching.
Save Money
In addition to saving time, if a person uses a comparison website before they switch electric companies they will also save a great deal of money. Even if the website charges a small fee, it will be well worth it as the company will be preventing their customers from making a poor decision. In reality, even small fees can be compensated for within a few months. But that is not the only way that these websites can help their customers save money; they are also frequently able to provide special promotions or deals that will offer rates for an electric company that are even lower than advertised.
Most people who have the option of selecting their own electric companies have not always had that choice. Even Texas wasn't deregulated until 2002 which means that most people haven't had much time in which they could switch electric companies. Comparison websites, however, have a great deal of experience in comparing companies and making recommendations. Although most have only been in business for around 10 years, they have helped thousands of customers in this time, giving them the opportunity to learn what people are looking for when switching
You can check Texas Electricity and Compare Electricity Rates at Shop Texas Electricity. Shop TX Electricity helps consumers by providing reviews and ratings of dozens of electricity providers in Texas. You can also review and rate electricity companies in Texas.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Gov. Nikki Haley says South Carolina will fight for federal grants that could make the state a hub for the next-generation nuclear technology.
The Republican governor and Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin stood with leaders of the nuclear industry Tuesday to advocate South Carolina as the ideal place for designing and building small modular reactors.
New Jersey-based Holtec International has applied for one of two, $225 million grants to be awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy.
Holtec CEO Kris Singh says he wants to build the first 160-megawatt underground reactor on five acres at the Savannah River Site near Aiken. He says it could become the showcase for a factory employing 5,000 people.
Singh says he envisions South Carolina making the compact reactors and shipping them worldwide from Charleston.

Ugandan MPs Reject Cabinet's "Rejection" of Anti-Homosexuality Bill
Jim Burroway
August 24th, 2011
Daily Monitor, Uganda's largest independent newspaper, today reports on reaction from members of Parliament to the weekend's announcement that the Cabinet has "rejected" the Anti-Homosexuality Bill. Daily Monitor reports:
Members of Parliament yesterday accused Cabinet of bowing to pressure and described the Executive's decision to block the gays Bill as "moral corruption".
Ndorwa West MP David Bahati, the architect of the Bill, says Cabinet cannot throw out his Bill because it is now property of Parliament and insists that he is going to push for it.
The lawmakers said it was immoral for government to think that donor funds matter more than traditional values and vowed to push for the Bill and ensure that it is passed even without the support of government. "Whether they want or not, we are going to pass it. For government to come up and throw out such a Bill means we are living in a crazy world," said Mr Andrew Allen (Bugabula North).
Ugandan lawmakers are particularly sensitive to the perception that they are under the domination of international pressure. Open defiance against foreign (read: rich, white, colonialist, etc.) pressure plays very well politically at home, as does any expression of hatred toward gay people. Adding to that is a third factor, the opportunity for members of Parliament to assert its independence by tweaking a very powerful and entrenched president. With that, support for the bill becomes a three-fer. The first and third elements are illustrated here:
Prior to the move, the international community had put pressure on government by threatening to cut aid if government passes the Bill. Ms Betty Amongi (MP Oyam South) says Cabinet has given Parliament a chance to exercise and prove its independence and not allow donor influence to "also jeopardize its works."
The Anti-homosexuality Bill is a private members Bill and Shadow Attorney General, Abdu Katuntu (MP Bugweri) said Cabinet cannot throw out a Bill it didn't bring. "The only option they have is to come and oppose it on the floor of the House," he said.

"After checking the UPS status 9 times today our new His (steel & solar) and Hers (forest & ultraviolet) Aeronauts just arrived.
WOW!!! These are beautifully designed and flawlessly fabricated objects. Thank you Tom Bihn Crew!!!
We loaded the bags with Pendleton blankets and walked around in small circles testing the Absolute strap and the backpack straps. Our initial reaction is that these have got to be the most comfortable carry on sized bags ever made in the history of planet earth – especially when loaded with soft wool blankets and walking barefoot on a nice Persian rug – we could have walked all night.
Gearing up for my lovely wife's 50th birthday getaway in Tofino B.C. It's still a month away but I'm starting to pack right now just to keep messing around with the Aeronaut(s)
Cats are examining the bobbin tension on the stitches. They said the stitching looks nice and even on both sides and that there were no dangling threads. They also suggested that a bag of this caliber would be a more dignified manner of transport to the Vet."
