In Violation of Their Oath of Office
Chilling Costs of Illegal Alien Migration
Frosty Wooldridge
Last Friday, Ann Curry, on NBC Nightly News, reported that drought-stricken Georgias Lake Lanier, that provides water for five million people, will not last more than 79 more days at current water consumption. What does Lake Lanier need? she asked the reporter standing by the lake. Lots of rain about four months of rain, the reporter said.
If Georgia stands in the cross-hairs of a water crisis today at 9,363,000 people, what will be its fate be by 2050 when its predicted population reaches 16,966,000 people?
What factor facing the United States stands immune from public, political and religious discussion? Short answer: runaway overpopulation as we add three million people to the USA annually!
With signs pointing to horrific future consequences, our presidential leaders, citizens and religious elite continue on a path of population growth without responsibility, without limits and without end. They continue in denial, refutation and negation.
Lets see where that path leads us. Worldwatch Institute, September 13, 2007 reported:
According to Erik Assadourian, Vital Signs Project Director, The world is running out of time to head off catastrophic climate change, and it is essential that Europe and the rest of the international community bring pressure to bear on U.S. policy makers to address the crisis.
This summer, the European Union became a showcase for environmental devastation including tragic fires in Greece and the Canary Islands, dramatic floods in England and heat waves across the Continent.
With a global population of 6.7 billion and growing by 77 million annually, humanity degrades every ecosystem beyond its capacity to sustain life:
The only hope for reducing the worlds carbon emissions is for the U.S. to begin reducing its emissions and cooperating with other nations immediately, said Assadourian.
Earlier this year, Bush promised to decrease oil consumption by 20 percent in the United States within ten years. Well reduce oil consumption by use of hybrid cars, conservation and ethanol, he said.
He failed to mention that via endless, unrelenting immigration, the U.S. expects to add 30 million people by 2017. Most Americans fail to realize this nation will add 100 million people within 35 years. What does that mean? It means full speed ahead like the Titanic. Everything were doing proves to be window dressing, cotton candy and pointless unless we deal with population stability.
What should our presidential candidates, religious leaders and average citizens be promoting?
Why an international program? For example, Bangladesh suffers 144 million people in a landmass less than the size of Iowa. They expect to double to 290 million people in 35 years! Thats like shoving all but 10 million of Americas 300 million into Iowa! No wonder they flee their countries by the millions and run to Europe and the United States!
more information, please visit:
once we add 100 million people to the USA, nothing will save us from
our consequences. Our quality of life, standard of living, freedom,
fresh air, open spaces, cities, wildlife and every aspect of our childrens
lives will degraded as our numbers increase. This population crisis
proves the number one issue facing us in the 21st century, but our
leaders deny, hide from, pretend and run away from it like the plague.
Unfortunately, if we dont deal with it; it will deal with usrather

I hope that all of you who celebrated Thanksgiving had a wonderful one. I, for one, am glad it's over. I don't know about you, but for me, the Holidays are a mixed bag. Between all the shopping, prepping and cooking, there is so much work (and stress) leading up to the big day. Then, when you finally do get to sit down to enjoy the fruits of your labor, all you can think about is that huge mess left in the kitchen and how many loads in the dishwasher it will take to get it under control. And, God forbid the rest of your dining companions don't gush and swoon enough over your food after all of the hours and hours you spent slaving over it! You can then feel both inadequate and resentful at the same time. Did I mention that I'm a Type A personality? And, a hopeless perfectionist? In any event, it isn't until the last pot is scrubbed and the leftovers are safely tucked away in their Tupperware containers that I can take a deep breath and relax. For me, that's when the fun begins. That's when I start thinking about what I'm going to conjure up with all the leftovers.
I sincerely hope that none of you ever, ever throw away the turkey carcass after your Thanksgiving feast. I'm kind of ambivalent about the turkey itself, but I always make sure we have one, because those slow roasted bones make the most lovely rich and flavorful stock. You can use that stock for all kinds of different recipes, but my favorite thing to make with it is a big pot of nurturing, restorative soup.
Cooking up a batch of turkey soup is a welcome respite from the frazzled frenzy of putting together a holiday meal. It's cathartic – almost like therapy. And, it's a no brainer. You just drop the carcass in a big stock pot, add some vegetable chunks, fill the pot with water and let it simmer a few hours while you drag all of the Christmas decorations down from the attic. Or in my case, while you nag your husband to do it as his a$$ is usually glued to the sofa watching football. Sigh…..
My starch of choice for homemade soup is pastina or some other kind of small pasta. I always have some in my pantry, it cooks quickly and hey – I'm Italian! This time, however, I decided to add barley. Barley does take a bit longer to cook, but I love its faint nuttiness and slightly chewy texture. It holds up really nicely to a bolder, more robust soup like this one.
With Christmas right around the corner, there's just a small window of time before the lunacy begins again. So, do yourself a favor and make a big old pot of turkey barley soup, put on your fuzzy slippers and relax a bit while you still can!
Turkey Barley Soup
1 turkey carcass
Cold water
1 large, sweet onion, quartered, studded with 6 whole cloves
3 carrots, rinsed, scrubbed and chopped into large chunks
3 ribs celery with leaves, rinsed, scrubbed and chopped into large chunks
Handful of fresh parsley
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
3-4 cups cooked barley
Salt and pepper to taste
Grated cheese for sprinkling (optional)
Remove any turkey meat left on the carcass. Set aside to add to the soup later or save for another use.
Put the carcass into a large stock pot and cover with cold water by an inch. Add the studded onion quarters, carrots, celery, parsley and peppercorns.
Bring to a boil and immediately reduce heat to bring the stock to a simmer. Skim off any foamy, icky stuff that collects on the surface. Simmer, covered, for about 2 hours. Then, simmer partially covered for another hour. If your stock needs a little more flavor, you can add a bouillon cube or some canned turkey or chicken broth.
Remove the bones and vegetables from the pot and strain the stock through a chinois or fine mesh strainer. Rinse out the stockpot and pour the stock back into it – or if you have someone else to do the dishes, use a clean pot.
Rinse the celery and carrots, and slice into bite-sized pieces. At this point, you can add additional fresh or frozen vegetables as well. Kale, escarole, and zucchini are nice choices. Bring stock back up to a simmer until the vegetables are tender.
Take some of the reserved turkey meat, shred it into bite sized pieces and add to the pot. Stir in the cooked barley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle with some grated cheese, if desired, and serve hot.
Makes 8-10 meal-sized servings.

Hollywood Hills News
HOLLYWOOD — The co-founder of Pinkberry was convicted on Friday, November 8 for the beating of a homeless man with a tire iron in Hollywood.
Young Lee was found guilty of the assault that took place on June 15, 2011.
Lee, now 49, was traveling in a SUV on
Bolding was left with a broken left forearm and several cuts and bruises, according to a statement from the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office. The statement also notes that it took the jury less than two days to come back with a verdict.
Lee faces up to seven years in prison. He returns to court for sentencing on January 14, 2014.
Bolding filed a civil lawsuit on May 1, 2012, against Lee. The suit, which demands a jury trial, alleges that Lee forced Bolding to get on his knees and apologize for brandishing his tattoo at Lee.
"[Bolding] had not done anything for which he needed to apologize...and had the lawful right to engage in speech and or display, however, inadvertent, of the tattoo on his body," says the lawsuit.
The suit was continued to December 17, 2013, following the results of the criminal trial.
Lee no longer has ties to Pinkberry; he left the company in May 2010. According to a statement released by the company in February 2012, "He has no influence or input into the company in any way, and the parties have not been in communications with one another since Mr. Lee's exit."

A Pitt County man, accused of not registering as a sex offender and then skipping town, has been caught in California.
Deputies say Michael Hancock has been on the run since July of 2006.
Members of the Greenville office of the U.S. Marshal Service Violent Fugitive Task Force tracked Hancock from North Carolina to New York, but were unable to find him there.
Authorities say the case remained open and they finally tracked Hancock to a friend's home in San Bernardino. When arrested, authorities say he told them he didn't think they would look for him out in California.
Hancock is awaiting extradition back to North Carolina.

Fordham Community Saddened by Loss of Music Department Chair
Contact: Janet Sassi
James Boyce, O.Carm.
Photo by Janet Sassi
Fordham University mourns the loss of James Boyce, O.Carm., chair of the Department of Music and Art History and a professor of music. Father Boyce died on Feb. 21 at St. Vincent's Hospital after an illness. He was 60 years old.
Father Boyce began his career at Fordham as an assistant professor of music in 1985 after earning his doctorate in musicology from New York University (NYU). He rose to associate professor, and became chair of the department in 2006. Recently he was named full professor.
A native of Canada, Father Boyce was ordained a Carmelite priest on June 4, 1977 at St. Therese of Lisieux Church in Cresskill, New Jersey. He was in residence at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church in Tenafly, N.J.
Father Boyce's area of expertise was the study of Medieval Latin liturgy and the Carmelite liturgical tradition, from historical, legislative and spiritual perspectives. Most recently, Father Boyce published
Carmelite Liturgy and Spiritual Identity: The Choir Books of Kraków
(Brepols, 2008), a 500-page book,
featured recently in Inside Fordham
, on Carmelite choir books that he discovered in a small Kraków convent.
In addition to his doctorate degree, Father Boyce held a bachelor of arts in French and bachelor of music in piano from McGill University; a master's degree in musicology from NYU; a master's in theology from Washington Theological Union and a master's of music in piano from Catholic University of America.
"Fordham has lost a multitude in Father Boyce," said Joseph M. McShane, S.J., president of the University. "Not just a scholar of music, he was an accomplished musician himself, a generous mentor and teacher of music, and a genial colleague. The University, the church and the world of musical scholarship are all poorer today. He will be missed greatly by the Fordham family and by his Carmelite brethren."
Michael E. Latham, Ph.D., interim dean of Fordham College at Rose Hill, recalled Father Boyce not just as a scholar who attained a national and international reputation, but as the kind of person who taught extra class sections to support the work of his junior colleagues.
"A dedicated, compassionate teacher, he was a leader in his department," Latham said. "He was, in all respects a wonderful, caring devoted colleague."
The Wake and Mass of Christian Burial will take place at:
Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church
10 County Road
Tenafly, N.J. 07670
(201) 568-0545
Thursday, February 25
7 to 9 p.m.
Friday, February 26
2 to 4 p.m.
7 to 9 p.m.
Mass of Christian Burial:
Saturday, February 27
10 a.m.
Father Boyce is survived by his brother Raymond, his sister Diane Forestell (Roy), his cousin Joan Foster, nephews Michael and Lucas Forestell, stepmother Betty Boyce, stepsisters Stephanie Dunne (and family), Patricia Kearns and Victoria Kearns, cousins and his Carmelite family.
Founded in 1841, Fordham is the Jesuit University of New York, offering exceptional education distinguished by the Jesuit tradition to approximately 14,700 students in its four undergraduate colleges and its six graduate and professional schools. It has residential campuses in the Bronx and Manhattan, a campus in Westchester, the Louis Calder Center Biological Field Station in Armonk, N.Y., and the London Centre at Heythrop College in the United Kingdom.

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
On the evening of Sunday 20th November 2011 I was on the phone to my parents, catching up on the weeks events and my Mum had a knock at the door.
That was most unusual at that time of night. My mum mentioned that she always worriedevery time the phone or doorbell rang, especially whilst Tim was awayin Afghanistan.
As such my mum went to get the door and said she would call me back...
For those of you that dont know, Tim, is my younger brother and is a
Infantry soldier with with the Princess of Wales regiment.
20 minutes passed by and still no call back. So i picked up the phone
and called my parents. Mum answered, struggled to speak and passed the
phone to Dad. Dad bthen tried to explain that the knock at the door
was from 2 army officers and that Tim had been involved in an explosion,
was injured and then, Dad started to loose his composure and passed
me over to one of the officers.
The officer then explained to me that Tim had been injured as a result
of one of his colleagues stepping on a improvised explosive device,
was stable but had fragmentation impailed into both legs, his right arm
and his neck and were awaiting further reports. That was all the news
they could share...
I then had to call my elder brother and younger sister to update them on the news.
Throughout the evening we were waiting for updates and still had
no further news. I then had a call from my parents explaining that
they have heard about Tim and he will be flown back into Selly Oak
hospital to undergo an operation.
Today is Wednesday and we now have a little further news. We know that Tim was part of a patrol with a number of brave soldiers and one is sadly no longer with us anymore. We know that Tim will arrive into Selly Oak this Friday for a very serious operation. Only at that point will we then know the extent of both his cosmetic and physical injuries.
If you have read this far then you quite clearly care about these brave soldiers and are probably wondering why I am sharing it with you?
I know that our forces have chosen to be there, get great satisfaction from their jobs and I expect, fully understand the risks.
However, what I am sure you also consider is that nobody signs up
expecting to get hurt and the harsh reality is that this war (that I
still dont quite understand) is causing immense suffering for many.
Now i would like to do a little something to help and our family have
been proud supporters of a charity called Help for heroes for some time.
All I have to give is myself, my skills and my knowledge and would like to gift what I can in order to raise funds for this great charity.
If you are open to helping us to support this exceptional charity then please dig deep and give what you can.
I really appreciate your consideration of this situation and thank
each of you for the support you have given us to date. I wait in
anticipation of seeing my brother on Friday and understanding what
happens next.
Thank you for reading this email and understanding this difficult
time for all of my family.
Kind regards

ISKO LAUNCHES FIRST DENIM WORKSHOPIsko launched its first denim workship on Friday. The two-day workshop took place at the headquarters of Garmon, a partner company of Isko in the development of innovative laundry processes and dyeing management of fabric and garments, in the Republic of San Marino, July 16-17. "We are very happy and honored to host the first edition of the technical workshop dedicated to laundry and dyeing processes, wanted and promoted by a first class partner such as Isko," said Maurizio Cappellini, Garmon Chief Executive.
The workshop was entirely sponsored by Isko and represents a unique learning occasion for the field. The idea was to create a privileged communication channel between all players of the denim value chain — from fiber to the finished garment — and with the exclusive engagement of Invista.
As Marco Lucietti, Isko Global Brand Manager, said: "With the launch of this new appointment, we have chosen to give the market a sign of confidence during a difficult economic environment, when few companies are investing in professional training activities."
Among the brands participating in the seminar were Meltin'Pot, Nudie jeans, Jack & Jones, Stalker, Siviglia, Fornarina, Gas, Benetton, Diesel, Replay, Ideamoe and Blueline.

Mind Power- Inner Psychology to Success

The term mind power and the subconscious mind power are described in many different ways. In the psychosomatic sense mind power is labeled as ability to have emotions, imagination, memory, and will; and subconscious mind power is labeled as part of the normal individual's personality in which mental processes function without consciousness under normal waking conditions.
1. How Mind Power and Subconscious Mind Power work
2. How to use Subconscious Mind for success
Mind power is our conscious mind, the way we think. The mind is similar to a constantly flowing spring however a natural spring cannot send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening, nor yield both salt water and fresh. So it is with the mind and its thoughts; it cannot equally think negative and positive thoughts at the same time. One will rule the other.
Since the mind reflects habitual thoughts, it is therefore our responsibility to influence our mind and brain with positive emotions, thoughts and energy as the dominating factors in our mind. Mind power is beyond positive thinking or brain power, it is thinking than believing what you think that will manifest your reality. Since this mind power is power of thought and beliefs, and these thoughts and beliefs will create the outcome of your now, you will want to stay aware to the reflections you are thinking.
Now mind power is a dual system that includes your power of thought(brain) and your subconscious mind. We all have subconscious mind power; it can be as small as smiling at your boss in the hopes of improving the odds of acquiring a raise.
It can be the way you unconsciously handle a situation whether appropriately or not. Power of the subconscious mind comes from the thoughts and beliefs of your the power of the your mind. However you think and believe is what your subconscious mind power will produce. This is done continuously, one minute at a time. Every thought nourished regularly by your mind power will activate your subconscious mind to generate those thoughts and energy whether good or bad into your life. This is how you're present and future is created.
Your mind power and your subconscious mind work together and they fashion your reality. Let's use a parallel to help you visualize how this works. Your subconscious mind power is similar to fertile soil that consents to any seed planted inside it. Your habitual thoughts and beliefs are the seeds which are being continually sown and they will eventually produce a crop. So if you plant weeds you will get weeds, if you plant fruit, you will get fruit. In other words, you reap what you sow. Now the conscious mind is the gardener, and it is the mind power to choose what reaches our inner garden- the subconscious.
Unfortunately, most of us do not have green thumbs because of lack of knowledge of this law, the psychology behind this success and because of this ignorance we have allowed all kinds of seeds, both good and bad, to enter. So our subconscious mind power will manifest failure, ill health and all kinds of misfortunes just as effortlessly as it will manifest success and abundance. However, it cannot manifest it both at the same time, which is why the need to constantly actuate the positive until the fertile soil of your subconscious mind power reaps only abundance. Success is only a choice away.

@ 11:34 pm
You reap what you sow. Sow negative thoughts and that's what you will get in life – negative results. Great article!
@ 10:47 pm
A question that a lot of people wants to know is, does the mind have a natural tendency to think evil (negative)
@ 12:25 pm
positive affirmations are really work. I use it every day and I see that thinks are change… and this for good:)
@ 5:49 am
hi, i have been "studying" this mindpower techniques for about a year now, and its amazingly powerful. The best place to start (where i did) is probably by reading the book "Mindpower into the 21st century" by John Kehoe. its brilliant. gives u actual techniques to practice.
get back 2 me in a year and tell me how powerful this is!
and by the way, all i can say, is take the time to create your future. dont just react to the outer reality, but spend time on creating ur inner reality that u'd like to experience as the outer reality and i promise u it will happen!
have fun!

I think that mind is the most powerful weapon over the world. when man can develop all his mind power,he does not need anything made of by the man hand to be in every where that he wants.
@ 8:10 am
Very good article.It will bring hopes & happiness to those who r sad & unhappy because of thier -ve thoughts.
@ 1:28 am
All of this is true but because as humans it is not meant for us to learn all of this. In a point that, it could disturb the essence of humanity and perfection of the creation. We have spirits or souls just like other creations and its power, will and intelligence likes no other.
All of the creations are created in the image and likeness of God that is why we do possessed a little of God's power but the power of God is infinite and having a little from him is more likely powerful also.
However, the twist of matter with our soul hinders this natural powers and that would keep us normal.
But I tell you, you won't learn this until you escape from the body you have or the matter that twisted to you. If ever you learned this, please, don't bother this normal world b'coz it would bring chaos. Believe me.
@ 10:22 pm
This is exaplains why some people are successful and some are not I have become very successful emotionally with the subconciuos mind and through feeding myself with postive thoughts I can only grow. The way people use the sub nin derterminds their whole life
@ 11:29 am
I do hear you say that we cannot manifest good and bad at the same time.my question is,is not good and bad just two opposite of the same pole,which makes us to simultaneously produces fruits and weeds.
@ 3:05 pm
Very interesting article and program. For me the functioning of the unconscious and finding a way to have it work for and not against me, is my goal. I am testing a brain entrainment system, listening to a recording once a day. I do see incredible changes in my life. I am more energetic, use my time more efficiently, get things quicker done and the best, I need 1 hour less sleep, which is a gain of one hour, which I can use for productive work. This program was researched for 15 years. It came out the first time in 2007 and got great results.

use afformation instead of affirmation you will see faster results afformations are question you repeat everyday 10 times in a form of question.
@ 10:36 pm
This is a very good informrtion about mind. I find that our thoughts will determine our future.As we sow ,so we reap,It is very apt here.
@ 4:52 pm
this is a great article for those who believe in their mindpower.i think we should use our mindpower in every sphere of life because it is unlimited.through our mind power we could know the exact religion,economic policies,social conditions and at large SERVICE TO HUMANITY.so start believing it from now!!!
@ 11:41 am
hi there
I have attended your course wayback in 1987!! in Sydney
..still I believe, it has helped me in finding myself to live a more selfconcious live.
thank you Kevin!!

@ 11:45 pm
This is interesting. I just want to add to what have been said. Mind is a vegetative power which must be laid out and cultivated into a beautiful garden. A fertile soil might not be productive,if it is not well conserved, so the mind that is not well conserved cannot be productive. The more positive thought, the better you control the outer sphere of your life.

@ 9:07 pm
i was just wondering if it was possible to tap into our subconcious mind in a fully understanding way.
@ 6:53 pm
nice article about mind power. I have dreams that came true and my friend told me that i have a strong mind power, does my friend told me is true?..
please answer!..,
@ 12:12 pm
You are the only one who knows the real fact here.. And nobody could hardly under stand the depth of your words..
@ 12:06 pm
Now it's up to us to wake up and see the light on our own paths. Nothing exists around it, only what's shined infront of you leads the way. The power is knowing where you are without seeing and believing what is to come.
@ 8:13 pm
Dan Nel !
Said it right I've been studing the power of the mind for at least 10 yrs. Yes one can change their lives and there way of thinking. There was a time when I thought I had it all and one day I woke up with nothing but a used car and not job raising a 2 yr. old on my own . But with consistance and changing the way I think I'm back on my feet 3 cars a beautiful home Great job . What I'm trying to say is never let go of your dreams " never " !

its affecting my studies…i'm an engg studnt 2nd yr…i want 2 control my feelings…i proposed her once..but she din agree…but stilll i love her…
@ 6:30 pm
I compare positive thinking or "affirmations" with what we Christians call faith…
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
So, keep your hopes,… and keep the faith!
@ 10:07 am
The mind consists of two spheres, the conscious part and the subconscious part. However, they are one in the same mind. I can write pages on this subject, but in answer to your question, the two parts of the same mind must be in agreement for scientific prayer to work. When this happens, the subconscious brings into fruition what the conscious mind has decreed. It appears that you have unwittingly and unknowingly tapped into the power of your subconscious mind without realising it. Unfortunately, you are no different to anyone else, millions of people do this everyday without knowing it. A great percentage put this down to fate. For whatever reason, you have become more effective at using it. When one unequivocally believes in something, the subconscious responds. There are many ways to use the subconscious, and your way is not uncommon. People who have perfected using their minds in this way can do so easily. Simply imagining an end result, with belief, and without doubt or argument brings about results. This is known as the visualization technique.
@ 7:39 am
I would like to know one thing that, can I use mind power to heal myself and my son we are both having the same diesease.
Thank you
@ 3:58 am
I would like to talk about the power of mind for JAPAN

It is not an accident it designed in the universe and that is the law of attraction and it is miracle of my mind
thank you
@ 8:49 am
Iam greatly interested to know about tactics of training subconcious mind for success
@ 8:05 am
Firstly you should try to visualize constantly, every single thing you desire even if it is to have a candy, visualize someone giving it to you, or visualize yourself eating a candy.
It's going to increase your self-confidence, onde it's done you will be able to go higher, and them start to apply it into your business life, visualize yourself doing great every single business you make, i am sure it works.
I wish you sucess.

June 20, 2005
A June 1, 2005 report in a major AIDS journal (JAIDS) from a study of 306 patients in India found that of those treated over a year with one of two 3-drug regimens available, 46% had lipodystrophy.1 The researchers also found that lipoatrophy was significantly associated with d4T use, and called for "improving access to alternative less-offending drugs like tenofovir and abacavir." This article ominously documents the development of a new global system of second-class medical care, imposed by trade laws that countries throughout the world have been pressured to accept.
But the biggest train wreck may involve cancer, not AIDS. Increasingly there will be highly targeted, very effective drugs against specific cancers (although resistance does develop); most of them will be patented, priced at tens of thousands of dollars a year in the U.S. (and likely close to that in poor countries), and often needed by each patient indefinitely. Reportedly one cancer drug already had a price increase about ten times in India, after courts stopped a generic company from selling the less expensive version.
Medical care for the poor has always been a disaster. But in the past the main problem was lack of enough resources to go around. The modern problem is the worldwide imposition of a system designed to sell new treatments at artificially high monopoly prices that most people cannot pay. In the U.S. many prescriptions are unfilled among the 45,000,000 uninsured. And those who are insured may be unable to afford copays, or denied treatment to save money.
Patents do help innovation by providing incentives for investors to fund research and development (this necessary funding could be provided in other ways; for example, see "Medical Innovation Prize Fund: New Idea in Drug Development," in this issue). But patents also block innovation. A patent means that only one company in the world can develop an idea (absent corporate dealmaking, a very inefficient process that can delay medicines for years as lawyers and executives battle with other or just don't have time). Usually research ideas are simply dropped once patent issues come into view. Yet the company with the patent is unlikely to be the one with all the other patents needed, with the interest in pursuing the project, and with the best technical, financial, and human resources (including the nebulous but all-important personal chemistry and enthusiasm) to create a new treatment successfully. Therefore the best research and development that could be done is unlikely to happen at all. Patent gridlock could be the major, overlooked reason for the unexpected big drop in the ability of pharmaceutical companies to produce truly innovative new medicines, despite huge advances in basic biological knowledge and in research tools.
Several years ago an official at a major pharmaceutical corporation said that it could not research about 100 potential cancer treatments its scientists wanted to test, because it could not obtain the rights at all, or could not negotiate an affordable price. If one of the world's biggest companies could not handle this problem in its own central field of work, think of the obstacles others must face.
Price negotiation always includes the risk of no agreement, as parties dream big and then walk away if they don't get what they want. But medical patents can burn the future as well as the present, escalating a failed negotiation into a legal blockade to critical research and innovation everywhere in the world -- with life-and-death consequences for many who were never at the table.
Now that biological and pharmaceutical patents are enforced worldwide, have greatly increased in number, and have far more ongoing research to block, their damage to innovation may be much greater than their benefit. But this problem tends to remain invisible, because those involved are usually pledged to secrecy, and also are trying to work something out so that their projects can proceed at all, however unsatisfactorily.
Patents on the genetics of viruses or other naturally occurring disease mechanisms can be particular destructive in stopping research on new treatments, as happened recently with hepatitis C. Ownership of pieces of the heredity of human beings or human diseases creates barriers to entry that are infinite, by act of Congress or other government bodies. Tens of thousands of these pieces of exclusive ownership of nature (sometimes controlling whole human diseases) may have created a fatal gridlock that is blocking the translation of new knowledge into practical medical treatments.
If this analysis is correct, pharmaceutical and related patents could be killing more people than all the wars on Earth combined, by blocking the research and development of new medical treatments for diseases that kill far more people than wars. This problem sneaked up on the world, mainly because of a change in scale -- the sheer amount of both research and patent activity today, and their global reach, which dumps all patents into a single huge, universal pool, where each one can stop innovations anywhere. This possibility urgently needs expert and public attention.
This unanimous Supreme Court decision seems to open the door to well-crafted legislation to further relieve patent gridlock, while also allowing the development of research tools to be profitable. For example, a compulsory-licensing system could create a medical patent pool, allowing big pharma, universities, or anyone else doing medical research to make free use of a broad class of patents, in return for a royalty based on sales, when and if any products developed with those patents were sold. Then any company or other organization could use almost any technology for medical research, without the hassle, expense, and delay of patent negotiation. This would free the research process, make royalties more predictable, and pay for innovation at the time of product sales -- after the work has already proven itself, and when a revenue stream exists. Paying for rights as a percentage of sales (instead of as a large fixed cost) could also encourage low prices in poor countries -- distributing research costs more equitably and realistically.
Open-source projects could also conduct rights-free medical research and drug development under the same rules. If they never made sales they would never owe royalties on the patents they used. And their work could greatly increase the value of patents by finding and proving new uses for them, at no cost to their owners.
A less ambitious approach to open-source type development in pharmaceuticals (not suggesting any legal changes) was discussed last year in The Economist, generally favorably ("An Open-Source Shot in the Arm?" June 10, 2004). Here the idea was to move the collaboration that already works well in bioinformatics (such as in the human genome project, a clear example of successful sharing of data) further downstream, closer to the patient. For example, effective worldwide collaboration and data sharing might greatly increase the discovery of new uses for off-patent or otherwise unpatentable drugs. (Recently the common antibiotic doxycycline was found to be a major advance for treating filariasis [elephantiasis], one of the most common causes of disability worldwide -- by killing bacteria needed by the worms that cause the disease, leading to their eventual death.3) Online research projects could also organize volunteer and other contributions toward developing entirely new drugs for tropical and other neglected diseases (see the Tropical Disease Initiative).
An important article on Internet collaboration ("The Power of Us," Business Week, June 20, 2005, page 75-82) describes many examples of successful new business projects based on the work of many people throughout the world, often volunteers, made possible by widespread online communication. Open-source software development is just one of these.
This approach will surely be different in pharmaceuticals than in software, because the industries are so different. It may contribute greatly to some projects, by allowing research to proceed at full speed, without unworkable rights constraints. This is already happening, but only in a few areas so far, where some way can be found around the prevailing patent gridlock.
The current system of drug development is failing. The time for exploring new ideas and practices is now.

On the Record: Latest releases from Jonas Kaufmann, Joseph Calleja
You've all heard the lament of music lovers with an ear fixated on the past: "They just don't make 'em like that anymore."
The 'em in question might be pianists one day, conductors the next. But I'd bet that, most days, the moaner-groaner set is referring to singers.
People are forever carping about the dearth of good voices. From what I've read, this was true even during those periods of the past that are now widely considered worthy of a "golden age of singing" tag.
I get in on this game from time to time, especially after wallowing in historic recordings, which seem to prove conclusively that we have been going downhill for decades.
But then, lo and behold, reality gives me a slap, and things don't sound so dearth-y after all. Even though we will not hear the likes of (fill in the blanks with your own personal favorites of yesteryear) again, we'll do OK, because we've got some pretty gifted vocal artists right now.
Two of those artists, Jonas Kaufmann and Joseph Calleja, have new (or relatively new) CDs out. I recommend both releases heartily, especially to those who think that quality tenor voices are as unlikely to find today as willing-to-compromise Tea Party members.
What I love first about Kaufmann and Calleja is that ...
they possess such individualistic voices; they don't sound like anyone else on the current scene. Kaufmann's baritonal timbre is especially distinctive. I can't even think of a tenor from the old days who had anything like his sound (you'll tell me if I've overlooked someone). Calleja's sound does remind me a little of past eras, because he has a fast vibrato that was not so unusual long ago, but it is quite uncommon now.
Even more important than how these two tenors produce tone, of course, is what they do with their vocal equipment in the service of music. And what they do can be awfully impressive.
Kaufmann's recording, "Verismo Arias" from Decca, is quite a knock-out. He generates equal levels of macho and poetic sensitivity in a hefty sampling of the repertoire that includes familiar and off-the-beaten-path fare.
Highlights include an enthralling account of an aria from Zandonai's "Giulietta e Romeo"; a full-throated "Vesti la giubba"; melting tones and exquisite phrasing in arias from "Mefistofele"; and a performance of the finale from "Andrea Chenier" with soprano Eva-Maria Westbroek that generates abundant vocal passion and genuine theatricality.
Time and again, the tenor does gorgeous things with dynamic nuance, softening the tone in ways that can be as thrilling as his all-out, super-verismo moments.
There's one non-opera track here, and it is a gem -- "Ombra di nube" by Licinio Refice. This haunting song, which Claudia Muzio recorded so wonderfully in the '30s, inspires some of Kaufmann's most luminous vocalism on the disc. It's the track I found myself returning to most often.
Throughout, the tenor is beautifully supported by conductor Antonio Pappano and the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazioanale di Santa Cecilia.
Calleja's new recording, also from Decca, is called "The Maltese Tenor." Unlike "The Maltese Falcon," there's no confusion over what makes the product worth seeking.
There's something direct and disarming about this singer's approach. The timbre, as I said, has a great deal of character; there's something of sunlight in that vibrato. And Calleja can get to the heart of a text tellingly. He does consistently persuasive work here in a sampling of greatest hits from lyric tenordom. Occasionally, one may wish for just a little more personality, maybe a bit more oomph in spots, or extra lingering over a note. But the recording nonetheless exudes conviction and style.
A great example of the tenor's artistic instincts occurs in "Salut! demeure" from "Faust." Calleja takes the high note head-on, with a big, solid tone, but then tapers that sound beautifully to make a most elegant effect.
Calleja also passes my "Tosca" test handsomely. Tenors who rush and/or belt through the words "disciogliea dai veli" in "E lucevan le stelle" aren't fit to wipe Puccini's boots, IMHO. Calleja caresses that line very tenderly.
He's effective, too, in other Puccini items, as well as some Verdi pieces. Like Kaufmann, he includes the two gentle arias from "Mefistofele" and delivers both of them endearingly. The disc concludes with the gentle duet for Nadir and Leila in Act 2 of "The Pearl Fishers." Calleja is joined here by the very expressive soprano Aleksandra Kurzak; their performance ends with an especially delicious pianissimo.
Marco Armiliato efficiently conducts L'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande in this attractive recording.

Hi All,
I have to update you on this!You can't imagine what happened!Having the bindweed mostly under control with Roundup (thanks for the suggestion!) the problem with the fence started. The fence needs redoing, but I did not want to put up a new fence, the bindweed climbs up and the tenants start to pull on the bindweed breaking up the trellies of the fence again!
Now a wonder has happened!
The property was sold to someone who has a horticultural background!We discussed the bindweed and Ivy will go and we might replace the fence with a hedge
This is better than Christmas!!!
Hi All, we did cut the back to the healthy looking wood and will see if it recovers! the guy who did it for us, said if it is something in the roots the rest will die off and he will come back and take it out for us for a small fee!
when we did cut it before, we also had someone to do it for us!
I definitely get a professional in as there is another tree next too it I want to be looked at!
thanks a lot all for your help and advise!
I'll update you if it could be rescued or had to go!
I'll keep my finger's crossed though!
I started to cut off the dead twigs - the question is will it help or does it need to be chopped further with the chain saw?
is it possible that it is a reaction on the storms we had last fall? it is noticable that only thinner parts of the twigs are affected!I will feed it well over the summer and see what happens.
It does not look like any of the mentioned diseases to me!
this is how the tree looks like

Officer gets reprimanded in "just a dog" case
The San Marcos police chief has reprimanded the officer who delayed two college students as they tried to rush their dying dog to a veterinarian, the San Antonio News-Express reported today.
Officer Paul Stephens, who said, "It's just a dog," as, he held the pair beside Interstate 35, received an oral reprimand and counseling, Police Chief Howard Williams said Tuesday.
"We sustained the complaint that was filed," Williams said. "We made him watch the tape with his supervisor and he was counseled on how to improve his performance."
But Williams said he believed his officer's assessment that the dog was not alive when he pulled over Michael Gonzales for going 95 mph on the highway after midnight Aug. 5.
Gonzales and his girlfriend Krystal Hernandez, both Texas State University students, were rushing their teacup poodle, Missy, from San Marcos to an all-night vet clinic in New Braunfels after the dog choked on her food and went limp.
The couple pleaded with Stephens to allow them to get the dog to the clinic and then turn themselves in later, or to let Gonzales stay and get his speeding ticket while Hernandez completed the trip alone. Instead, they were kept at the scene for almost 20 minutes waiting for Stephens to issue the ticket as he chatted with two other officers who arrived.
The students say the dog died while they waited.
Gonzales said Tuesday he thought an oral reprimand was not sufficient.

Does anyone know if cold temps might effect the power output of this type of battery? I do know that it is best to store these batts at about 40% charge and the colder the better to perserve shelf life, but how does outside weather effect the power output of these batts?
Does cold like 40 degrees F not allow the full power potential or like is there any real gain or loss due to high/ low temperatures?
Thanks for any info

The Florida Highway Patrol has arrested a Lynn Haven man in connection with a deadly traffic crash a year ago.
It happened at dawn back on the morning of February 25, 2005 on U.S. 231 in Hiland Park.
Troopers say 41-year-old Ronald Marion Rocher was speeding when he hit another car driven by 47-year-old Judy Kay Gonzales of Fountain. Gonzales car rolled over several times throwing her out and killing her.
Authorities say Rocher left the scene. He's been charged with one count of vehicular homicide and one count of leaving the scene of a traffic crash with a death.

Colorado may be in better shape to win a competitive Race to the Top education grant, even though it has lost the support of teachers unions and some school districts.
Many education experts believe Colorado became a front-runner when Gov. Bill Ritter signed landmark legislation on May 20 linking student academic growth to teacher evaluations and changing how teachers earn and keep nonprobationary status, also known as tenure.
"The national perspective is you guys are in first place," said Kate Walsh, president of the National Council on Teacher Quality. "If I were a bookie, my bets would be with Colorado."
Eleven other states have recently passed teacher-effectiveness evaluation laws similar to Colorado's Senate Bill 191, said Tim Daly, president of The New Teacher Project.
"Colorado is one of the leaders, if not the leader in the substance of its law," Daly said. "It's very strong on the framework of evaluation, very strong in helping teachers get better and holding them accountable; it does the mutual- consent piece, and it deals with layoffs."
Colorado finished 14th out of 16 finalists in the competition's first round — earning 409.6 points on a 500-point scale. In March, Delaware and Tennessee were named winners, taking home a total of $600 million.
In its first-round application, Colorado lost 33 points out of a possible 138 in the section that asks how the state plans to get effective teachers and principals into schools.
The state's new teacher-effectiveness law could give Colorado up to 20 additional points, said Van Schoales, director of Education Reform Now.
"That gets us within striking distance," he said. "Every point will matter. The proposal will have to be very good."
State education officials were holed up in an office for the weekend polishing the state's application for up to $175 million in federal education money. The application is due Tuesday.
As much as $3 billion is available, and U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan has said up to 15 states could win in the second round.
Finalists will be notified by July 26, winners no later than early September.
Duncan has said states with strong proposals will be rewarded whether or not they have buy-in from stakeholders, such as school districts and unions.
Colorado's new law gives it the boldest plan, said Walsh of the National Council on Teacher Quality.
"Nobody is bolder," she said. "Hands down. I don't know how you guys won't win. I can't see the scenario."
Fewer supporters this time
But last time Colorado lost points because 44 out of 178 school districts refused to sign on and only 43 percent of teachers union locals supported the first-round application.
This time it will be worse.
For the second round, 114 districts have signed on, leaving 64 withholding support.
Among those rejecting the application is Cheyenne Mountain School District in Colorado Springs. Superintendent Walt Cooper said the requirements in the application, as he understands them, aren't worth the money the district would receive. "Our perspective is the goals are not congruent with the work we have been doing."
In the first round, 38 of 88 union locals supported the state's application.
This time only a handful have signed on, including the 2,500-member American Federation of Teachers in Douglas County.
But the 40,000-member Colorado Education Association is no longer supporting the state's application and has urged union locals to reject it.
It is turnaround from the first round, when the CEA backed the application and sent a representative to Washington, D.C., as a member of Colorado's contingent presenting the state's case to federal reviewers.
"We're definitely going to lose points there. There is no question about it," said Lt. Gov. Barbara O'Brien about the lack of union support. "But the boldness of 191 and what it does for the whole proposal, it will more likely make up for that."
Scaling back the plans
Colorado had to scale back its proposal by $200 million to bring it under the second-round cap set by the U.S. Department of Education.
Gone are plans to create a turnaround center and a center for educator effectiveness. The state also removed a section that would hire 1,000 educators from Teach For America.
A week ago the state won a $17.4 million federal grant to build a longitudinal data system that had been in the first-round application — which made for an easy edit.
"We kept the core — data systems, professional development so teachers can teach to the new standards and interim assessments," said O'Brien, who has led the state's Race to the Top effort.
The second-round application will be clearer about how the state intends to spend the money, and much of the work was to polish the narrative, said Nina Lopez, special assistant to Education Commissioner Dwight Jones.
"While we haven't redone our strategy, what became clear is there was a number of places that were good but we didn't describe it well," Lopez said. "It's definitely been a hard process, but I am really excited about the things that are in the application."

By Bill Tumas: We're here with a Master Cylinder and Battery Cover from California Pony Cars. The cover's going to mount using factory mounting holes with the supplied hardware. It will fit your 2005-2014 Mustang GT and V6. It can also fit your GT 500, but will require minor trimming for the throttle body. The covers work with both CPC's and MRT's hood strut kits. If you're running the Redline hood struts, they will work, but will require minor trimming on the sides.

Before Dexter and Lumen head out to take down head honcho Jordan Chase, they have one stop to make… the woman whose blood Chase has been wearing around his neck. This woman will lead Dexter and Lumen to the final piece of the sick and twisted puzzle, and by the end both of their lives will be changed forever.
Miami Metro will also get one step close in their investigation into the barrel girls when they discover a key piece of evidence hidden away in a secret lock box… evidence that will send Debra on an emotional tail spin.
Finally, Liddy steps up his investigation into Dexter and his new "squeeze."
What worked: Allow me to jump to the end for a second, I am so glad that the writers aren't extending the sexual tension between Dexter and Lumen any more than they needed to. They got it on, and that is what I and I'm sure the rest of you have been waiting for since they met.
As for Dexter allowing Lumen to make her first kill, I was impressed with the sensitivity with which the writers handled the situation. The whole thing could of ended up being one giant angst-filled mess, but instead we got a lot of heart and emotion from Julie Stiles and her portrayal of the emotionally broken Lumen. I can totally buy that she is latching on to Dexter's murderous ways because it is the only stable thing in her life now and the only thing that provides her with comfort.
Peter Weller is absolutely killing it in his guest spot this season. I mean all I want to do when I see him on screen is curl up into a fetal position in absolute fear. I can't wait to see if there is a final showdown between him and Dexter before the season is out.
I also like that Deb is really taking on an actual investigative role in this episode. By that I mean that she isn't just bringing evidence to Dexter for him to figure out. She is actually coming up with conclusions on her own for once, which is nice.
What didn't: I think the Jordan Chase character is getting just a little to much screen time. The whole point of the villains that aren't big bads (like Trinity or Ice Truck) is that we know very little about them. If the writers wanted to make Jordan Chase into an emotionally deep big bad, than they should of done it much sooner than episode ten.
I'm starting to get annoyed with how out of touch Masuka is with the rest of the outside world. You're telling me he doesn't find it suspicious in the slightest that Dexter just happens to knock over the one piece of evidence that could bring down an entire gang of serial killers? Come on.
Final thoughts: A good episode with an absolutely killer ending.
Episode: "In the Beginning" (Season 5, Episode 10)
Airs: Showtime, Sundays, 9pm
What's next: Unknown.

I'm not a St. Anger fan, but playing something off of it wouldn't hurt either. The way they turned All Within My Hands into that acoustic number a few years ago was absolute genius and deserves a spot in any set list they play, nightly.
I also didn't know you spoke for the "majority" of fans, Mr. Ambassador. I guess I'm not in the majority, perfectly fine by me then.
Your intra-album warfare does nothing to further the cause of the band, it only hinders it and forces a demented thought process that only the first four albums are sacred and anything post-1988 is the next set of albums up for debate in the live song selection process.
Time to step out of the box.
I think most of the reason they are playing a huge amount of old material is simply because they did not perform no where near as much (old material) in the last decade, and especially in the 90s.

The Realty Alliance has invited Jose Perez, founder and chief visionary of PCMS Consulting, to lead a session tackling the all important topic of what role the office manager of the future should play at their bi-annual conference in Portland, OR. In addition to this session, geared towards the owners and principals of member firms, Perez will also be presenting an idea sharing session to the group's managing executives designed to generate strategies that will increase agent adoption of brokerages' investment in technology.
According to the company, Craig Cheatham, President and CEO of The Realty Alliance, is committed to helping members of The Realty Alliance reinvent themselves and believes PCMS Consulting is an exceptional resource to accomplish his goal. "Jose has worked with our group in the past and has been very well received. PCMS Consulting is recognized as an industry leader and innovator and has helped facilitate breakout thinking among the best and brightest in the real estate industry… our members."
"The real estate transaction has been commoditized and consumers have access to as much information as we do," states Perez. "Look at what Apple, Starbucks, and Zappos have done over the past few years… it's all about the experience. If brokerages and their agents don't embrace technology to help deliver this experience as well as create management teams that are in tune with the expectations of the consumer, they will be left behind."
The Realty Alliance's bi-annual meeting is a stockholders meeting and strategy session for North America's elite firms and is not open to the public or the media. Membership in The Realty Alliance is by invitation only.

Review & preview: St. Mary's
Here is the third installment of a series that checks in with the seven Division III programs in the state to evaluate the past and offer a glimpse into the future. Monday's visit takes us to St. Mary's.
The good: Record-wise, the Seahawks took a few steps back, falling to 6-9 overall and 4-4 in the Capital Athletic Conference after going 10-6 and 5-2, respectively, in 2010. But coach Chris Hasbrouck said the players are in place to continue the program's evolution. "Even though the record didn't maybe show it, I think we can see that we're continuing to build the program and hopefully moving toward what might be a top-15, top-10 type of team," he said. "It's a work in progress, and I think we're recruiting the right guys and they're doing the right things to get there. … We can accept the 6-9 record as long as that is part of moving forward and becoming the team we want to be." … For the third consecutive year, St. Mary's advanced to the conference tournament semifinals. The Seahawks avenged a 7-4 regular-season loss to conference foe York on March 30 with a 14-9 victory in the tournament's first round before losing to Stevenson, 16-7, on April 20. The advancement was an encouraging sign for Hasbrouck. "I'm not a moral victory guy, but to make the semifinals was good for these guys," he said. "Now we need to move forward and get to the championship game." … After limping out to a 2-7 start, the team went 4-2 after April 2. The rough start bothered Hasbrouck, but he also expressed satisfaction with the squad's perseverance when the players could have folded. "I think our overall growth was solid, and I think we played our best lacrosse at the end of the year," he said. "Everything was clicking a little bit better."

Annotations for
Baker & Taylor
A casino robbery gone wrong compels its orchestrator to call in a favor from a master criminal known only as "Jack," who must test the limits of his considerable skills in order to protect his anonymity from a closely pursuing FBI.
Baker & Taylor
A casino robbery gone wrong compels its orchestrator to call in a favor from a master criminal known only as "Jack," whose activities are subject to mystery and speculation and who must test the limits of his considerable skills in order to protect his anonymity from a closely pursuing FBI. A first novel. 150,000 first printing.
Random House, Inc.
Stunningly dark, hugely intelligent and thoroughly addictive,
announces the arrival of an exciting and highly distinctive novelist.
When a casino robbery in Atlantic City goes horribly awry, the man who orchestrated it is obliged to call in a favor from someone who's occasionally called Jack. While it's doubtful that anyone knows his actual name or anything at all about his true identity, or even if he's still alive, he's in his mid-thirties and lives completely off the grid, a criminal's criminal who does entirely as he pleases and is almost impossible to get in touch with. But within hours a private jet is flying this exceptionally experienced fixer and cleaner-upper from Seattle to New Jersey and right into a spectacular mess: one heister dead in the parking lot, another winged but on the run, the shooter a complete mystery, the $1.2 million in freshly printed bills god knows where and the FBI already waiting for Jack at the airport, to be joined shortly by other extremely interested and elusive parties. He has only forty-eight hours until the twice-stolen cash literally explodes, taking with it the wider, byzantine ambitions behind the theft. To contend with all this will require every gram of his skill, ingenuity and self-protective instincts, especially when offense and defense soon become meaningless terms. And as he maneuvers these exceedingly slippery slopes, he relives the botched bank robbery in Kuala Lumpur five years earlier that has now landed him this unwanted new assignment.
From its riveting opening pages,
effortlessly pulls the reader into Jack's refined and peculiar world--and the sophisticated shadowboxing grows ever more intense as he moves, hour by hour, toward a constantly reimprovised solution. With a quicksilver plot, gripping prose and masterly expertise, Roger Hobbs has given us a novel that will immediately place him in the company of our most esteemed crime writers.
