Biography of Roderick "Rico" Alvendia
Biography of J. Bart Kelly, III
Biography of Jeanne Demarest
Biography of Jeremy J. Pichon
Rico was born in 1970 in New Orleans, LA. Although he was born and raised primarily in New Orleans, Rico traveled internationally as he was growing up while his Father, Ernesto M. Alvendia, served as a Diplomat for the Philippines. In fact, he attended Jesuit High School in the Philippines from 1984 to 1987, where he also witnessed firsthand the historic Filipino Peaceful Revolution in 1987.
In 1994 Rico graduated with high honors from Loyola University, New Orleans, with a Bachelors Degree in Political Science. At the same time he was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the US Army Reserves. In 1994, he was awarded an academic scholarship to Loyola University Law School in New Orleans. As a student at Loyola Law School he excelled in the Moot Court Program and earned a spot as a member of Loyola's renowned National Moot Court Team. He earned his law degree from Loyola in 1998 and immediately passed the Louisiana Bar exam. He started with his partners the Law Firm of Alvendia, Kelly, and Demarest, LLC in 2003.
While he gained valuable experience in trying over 150 civil and criminal trials in both State in Federal Court, Rico was also recruited into the US Army Reserve JAG Corps. In 2004, he was mobilized in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom for 18 months with the Louisiana National Guard's 256th Infantry Brigade. In Iraq, he was promoted to the rank of Major. While in downtown Baghdad, Rico was part of an international team of lawyers who assisted Iraqi prosecutors in the criminal trials of over 300 insurgents. His efforts resulted in the 1st successful prosecution of an Iraqi for the murder of a U.S. soldier. He was awarded the Bronze Star for his service during combat operations.
After returning to the U.S. from Iraq in the Fall of 2005, Rico and his Partners were immediately faced with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. After opening its Downtown New Orleans office, Rico and his firm continued to focus on complex personal injury cases, as well as representing hundreds of homeowners and local business owners in their battles with their insurance companies. His Firm fought to successfully recover millions of dollars for his clients who were in need of money to rebuild their homes and businesses.
Since Katrina he has also been appointed to multiple Plaintiff Steering Committees in class actions related to Katrina, including the Orleans Parish School Board teachers' class action and several New Orleans hospital class action cases based on the failure to timely evacuate patients, which include the Memorial Hospital class action case.
Rico remains active in local charities and with Loyola Law School, where he is a member of the Alumni Board of Directors and he has established the Martha A. Alvendia Endowed Scholarship in honor of his mother. Recently, he was honored by the Loyola Law School Moot Court program as the 2007 Distinguished Alumni of the Year and he was also honored by the Louisiana Trial Lawyers Association with the 2008 President's Award for his service to the legal profession.

Live Oak, Florida (AP) --
Florida officials say Tropical Storm Debby was responsible for seven deaths in the state.
Live Oak, Florida (AP) --
Florida Gov. Rick Scott says he has deep sympathy for victims of massive flooding in Live Oak.
Scott visited the north Florida city on Thursday. It was pelted by rain from Tropical Storm Debby for four days through Tuesday.
The governor told some victims and Suwanee County officials about his experience with Missouri River flooding as a youth in Kansas City, Mo.
Scott spent more than an hour at the county's emergency operations center getting briefed on Live Oak's worst flooding since Hurricane Dora in 1964.
Eighty-five people spent the previous night in a Live Oak shelter. Scores of homes and vehicles remained flooded and unusable Thursday.
Scott and state disaster chief Bryan Koon then headed for Pasco County just north of Tampa to survey storm damage there.

This is the sixth time that Porsche has made it to the top three position our of seven times in the World Performance Car category making it the fourth consecutive time. The Porsche Cayman S won the first forthe World Performance car of the year award in 2006.
There was an initial entry list of nineteen (19) new cars from all over the world, then a short list of ten, then three finalists- the Porsche 911, the Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4, and the McLaren MP4-12C among which the The Porsche 911 was chosen as the best.

Your pregnancy: 41 weeks
See how your baby is developing.
Your baby's skin is probably peeling a bit after his long bath in amniotic fluid.
The amniotic sac usually ruptures (your "water breaks") after you go into labor.
How your baby's growing
A bit over 20 inches long, your baby has continued to grow and may now weigh almost 8 pounds. As cozy as he is, your baby can't stay inside you forever. For your baby's safety, your practitioner will talk with you about inducing labor if your baby isn't born in the next week — earlier if there are any problems. Most practitioners won't let you wait more than two weeks past your due date to give birth because it puts you and your baby at increased risk for complications. About 5 to 6 percent of women have prolonged pregnancies that extend three or more weeks beyond their estimated due dates. Babies born at 42 weeks and beyond can have dry parchment-like skin and are often overweight. Waiting that long to deliver also increases your chance of developing an infection in your uterus that could be dangerous for your baby or of having a stillbirth. What's more, your labor is more likely to be prolonged or stalled, both you and your baby have an increased risk of injury during a vaginal delivery, and you double your chances of needing a c-section.
How your life is changing
It's hard not to be anxious when your due date comes and goes and you're still hugely pregnant (especially when well-meaning family and friends keep calling to check on your status!). But don't fret — you won't be pregnant forever. There's a good chance you'll go into labor on your own this week, and if you don't, you'll be induced by 42 weeks, or earlier if you or your baby has any problems.
The methods your practitioner uses to induce labor will depend on the condition of your cervix. If your cervix hasn't started to soften, efface (thin out), or dilate (open), it's considered "unripe," or not yet ready for labor. In that case, your practitioner will use either hormones or "mechanical" methods to ripen your cervix before the induction. Sometimes these will end up jump-starting your labor as well. Depending on your situation, the procedures can include stripping or rupturing your membranes, or using drugs like oxytocin (Pitocin) to start your contractions. If these and other methods don't work, you'll end up having a c-section.
In the meantime, be sure to tell your practitioner immediately if your baby's movements slow down or if any fluid is leaking from your vagina.

I do not think that Dr. Shumway is Xaafuun in disguise. She would be away to long from Izadora and she would have had to come out of the UFO when she was in another city. I do think that Dr. Shumway is the queen alien though. I find it suspicious that a scientist would jump to such conclusions with:
1. Not stating any evidence
2. Not even investigating
3. When the subject comes up, Dr. Shumway shoos it away by calling it nonsense.

Topic: Stencyl / Stencyl is a failure.
I don't understand why people are attacking Stencyl. It's like, Oh no, people want to make games but have no coding experience. You all climbed the same mountain as these people. You started somewhere. This is like the kiddie pack, that will open the door for you, and then you can start climbing that same mountain you all climbed. But it's kind of hard for these people to actually learn to code, or even WANT to code anymore. Especially when after all of their hard work climbing up the mountain, the people on top are stomping on their fingers and pissing in their hair.

BURBANK — Hollywood loves to pigeon-hole people, so how did comedy editor Stuart Bass, who typically cuts 30-minute shows, end up on Barry Sonnenfeld's one-hour
Pushing Daisies
? "I'm basically a half-hour guy, and usually hour people won't talk to me," says Bass with a laugh. He made the leap to "longform" by working with Sonnenfeld on last season's half-hour comedy
Notes From the Underbelly
. Clearly, Bass impressed the critically-acclaimed director.
The irony of this "half-hour guy" cutting a one-hour show is that the feel and production schedule of ABC's new
Pushing Daisies
is very much like a feature film. "Executive producers will always say, 'We are making a little feature here,' but this one really looks like a little movie," says Bass.
Pushing Daisies
, about a baker who can bring the dead back to life with his touch, is shot on 35mm and owns a feature film schedule. Each show is 41 minutes, and for the pilot they shot for 17 days, which ends up being about three minutes of show per day. "The episodes have a 14-day schedule," reports Bass. "That way we take our time, make every shot look right, and get it perfect."
LaserPacific performs telecine on the 35mm film for the show's dailies. They deliver a Beta SR, 10-bit uncompressed video, copy that goes to the visual effects house, Sandman in Salt Lake City; Bass — who works out of Warner Bros. here in Burbank — gets a DVCAM version that's loaded into his Avid by assistant Andrew Charlton. Once loaded, Charlton also scripts it. "This is a recent innovation for us, thanks to Avid's ScriptSync, which is new to Version 2.7," says Bass, who convinced Warner Bros. to forgo the usual editing set-up for television series — Avid Meridiens running on G4s — and try software-only Media Composers, V.2.7 using Mojo and running on Mac Intel machines. His three assistants — Charlton, Catherine Haight and Rachelle Dang — use Avid Mojo SDI systems; rentals come from Timeline in LA.
Bass had been using the manual version of Avid's scripting software for years, but now that the company added the automated ScriptSync, he says, it streamlines the process significantly. Thanks to the phonetic-indexing engine, the syncing has become automated. "It's been very important to the process because we get a lot more done in the editing room on extremely tight schedules."
He says that while the pilot had a very feature-like schedule for shooting, it had a television schedule for post. "On a feature a director gets about six weeks afterward to work on it. With
Pushing Daisies
it's about four days, and the producers get about two days because we have to lock effects." And there are many of them, according to Bass, who says they are mostly photorealistic. The pilot features 96 opticals and the first episode has 190.
They are also working right up to the airdates on the series — delivering Mondays for a Wednesday airing. "It's a crazy television schedule, but with tremendous amount of dailies and a lot of takes," explains Bass, "and the scripting allows me to very easily to go through and hear every reading of every take and really be thorough. When the producers come in and say, 'Do you have anything that could give this scene a little more emotionality,' I can very quickly run through and show them all the readings of a certain line." The script is right there on Bass's computer and all he has to do is click on the line of dialogue to get all those readings.
And Bass emphasizes that it's not just ScriptSync that speeds things up; the new system and software help as well. "I can do a lot of effects realtime, or they render extremely quickly."
And thanks to that increased speed, he's been taking advantage of some of the software's effects, like SpectraMatte for all the show's bluescreen shots, Marquee for better titling, as well as the ImageStabilization tool.
Another big help has been the TimeWarp effect. "I do a lot of slowing down and speeding up of footage," says Bass, and it's nice to make it transparent. In the past you always got that jittery kind of film, and now we can do this interpolation of frames… and the slow downs look just like they were shot with a high-speed camera. In the past you have been able to do this fluid motion, but on a Meridien it can take 20 minutes to render something like that, and on this system it's more like 30 seconds."
Bass says this kind of speed lets him experiment more, and sometimes even change how actors perform. "If somebody doesn't say the line quick enough, there is a big gap; I will tighten it up by speeding up little areas of them. There are new tricks that this software allows me to do."
And just as the show's schedule is feature film-like, Bass isn't cutting
Pushing Daisies
like a typical television show. "I'm tending to stay wider and stay in masters and not use coverage to speed things up, and I'm using a little slower rhythm than you would see on
, where they try to keep things charged up all the time."
As an editor, he says, you have to be very sensitive to exactly which performance is being chosen and make sure you aren't creating an artificial rhythm. He says this is completely opposed to the way he cut
Arrested Development
, where the timing was compressed. "With
, I was trimming out spaces, and you really manufacture this energy and get the rhythm of the jokes in a certain way.
Pushing Daisies
is a comedy as well, but it unfolds. You kind of have to look for its own organic nature, and the editing has to be invisible and show off the story as best as possible."
Earlier, Bass mentioned having a ton of footage to work with. "I'm getting like 10 or 12 takes," he says. "And that's good because that's how we get these performances — by finding the right takes."
Bass explains that Paul Edwards, director of the second episode — the one he was working on at press time — comes from the television world, and tends to run the camera without cutting. "This means very long takes, and you end up with different parts of dialogue and different parts of the footage, and that's where the scripting software really shines because it becomes easy to find specific line readings when slates are missing."
Bass came into
Pushing Daisies
knowing how Sonnenfeld — who only directed the pilot and episode one — thinks, and that helps keep the process moving. "Going into
Notes From the Underbelly
, I was a huge fan of his, everything from
Raising Arizona, Men in Black
Get Shorty
, and even his more obscure movies. I've watched them all, so I have a very good sense of his rhythm and what he likes."
Bass calls Barry Sonnenfeld a very smart person and a wonderful director, who is also quite demanding. "I would get the material in the morning and he wanted everything cut before the end of the day," he says, explaining that they output it to DVD or put it up on a server for when the director was out of town — similar to how they work with Salt Lake's Sandman.
"He wanted to see everything he'd shot the day before cut, and he'd email me notes as we were going through the days," he says. Because they were cutting as they went along, they basically had a director's cut early on. "We pretty much had all the temp music and temp effects in, so it's almost like the day after the last day's dailies, the show is in pretty good shape. Then Barry would come in and spend a few days just kind of tweaking things; then we'd present it to the rest of the executive producers — Bryan Fuller (
Wonderfalls, Dead Like Me, Heroes
) and Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen (both produced
American Beauty
). There is a lot of concern about detail and quality, which you don't see that much in television." After the producers sign off, the show goes to the studio and then ABC for a final look.
At press time, Bass had been joined by two more show editors — one-hour TV vets Lisa Lassek (
Wonderfalls, Serenity
) and Scott Wallace (
Wonderfalls, Traveler
) — growing a quality editing staff for
Pushing Daisies.

Why U.S. "Big Oil" May Not Be Big Enough
Many Americans love bashing and vilifying "Big Oil," and the President wants to take Big Oil's tax breaks away (even while lavishing subsidies on not-ready-for-primetime renewables), presumably in order to reduce their allegedly "obscene" profits. But the largest American oil company, Exxon Mobil, is a small fry when compared to the government-owned energy monsters with which it competes for supplies in the global energy arena.
It ranks 17th — 17th — in the world in terms of oil output, according to one list I Googled. It's dwarfed by its government-owned competitors, which currently control 77 percent of the world's known energy reserves. Exxon Mobile and its private counterparts play by American-style, Marquess of Queensberry rules, while government-owned competitors, like PetroChina, ruthlessly scramble to lock-away every drop of oil they can, with few reservations about how they do it.
Waging regulatory and rhetorical war on American "Big Oil" may viscerally satisfy demagogues and profit-bashers on the Left, but weakening American and Western companies also will leave Americans even more at the mercy of the foreign governments (few of whom are generic cialis online friendly) that really put the "big" in Big Oil. But few Americans who rely on the greenstream media for their energy education would understand this.
The careless reader of this CBS News story, for instance, might conclude from the headline that this means Exxon is now "no 2″ in overall oil production, but this just refers to what the reporter calls "publicly-traded" oil companies, even though the biggest oil producers in the world are government-owned, not publicly-traded. And Exxon barely makes the top 20 on that scale, as I explained above. The headline also misleads because PetroChina, though technically publicly-traded, is 86 percent owned by the Chinese government, making this an apples-to-oranges comparison. But if you just looked at the headline, or read a few graphs into the story, and if you don't have a grasp of the bigger picture, you might jump to the conclusion that Exxon Mobil is still one of the top dogs in the global oil biz, when it is really just a puppy.


text: Home Culture 9-Year-Old Chicago Boy Fatally Shot Blocks From Home Antonio Smith was shot multiple times on the city's South Side and was found blocks from his home. By: Diamond Sharp Posted: Aug. 25 2014 3:12 PM 0 Antonio Smith NBC 5 Chicago Screenshot The family of 9-year-old Antonio Smith is searching for answers after the child was shot down last Wednesday, reports the Chicago Sun-Times. Antonio became upset after he called his mother to ask for a snack and she told him no, according to the Sun-Times. Afterward, he left his house, followed closely by his 12-year-old brother. His brother, however, was not wearing shoes and quickly lost sight of him. Shortly thereafter, Antonio was found in the backyard of a home in Chicago's Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood. He had been shot multiple times roughly two blocks from his home. "I just want whoever did it to turn themselves in because he was a 9-year-old innocent baby and he didn't deserve that," Rasheda Eggleston, Antonio's cousin, told NBC Chicago. Antonio was found in the backyard of Cynthia Smith-Thigpen, who was not aware of the shooting until police came to her home. "It's frightening to know that these things are happening around your house," Smith-Thigpen told the Sun-Times. The Rev. Michael Pfleger, priest of St. Sabina Parish, says a $5,000 award will be offered in return for information about Antonio's death. Antonio's slaying "can't be tolerated. Especially a 9-year-old child. It's just ridiculous," Pfleger said. Read more at the Chicago Sun-Times. Like The Root on Facebook. Follow us on Twitter.

Expert advice for scrollsaws
- • Scrollsawing tips
- • Stay safe
- • Buying advice
Stay safe
- Wear safety glasses to guard against flying wood chips or the pieces of a broken blade.
- Control dust with a nearby dust filter or, better yet, take it right off the table with a collector. Some new models include attachments that accept a shop vacuum hose.
- Don't wear loose sleeves or any jewelry that could get tangled in the blade. If you have long hair, tie it back. Stock up on these.
- A small assortment of blades will handle any situation. Rick relies on very thin #2/0, #2, and #5 blades for most of his work, usually in a skip-tooth configuration. The skip-tooth style features a long, flat gullet between the teeth.
- Baltic birch plywood serves as a great material for most scrollsawing projects. The edges look good, and you won't run into voids, as you do with some plywood.
- Patterns can come from downloadable Web sites, from computer software, or simply from children's coloring books. To make a permanent pattern, cut it out in plastic laminate.
- A magnifier light helps you follow fine details, but can be tricky to use, so try it before you buy it. Rick recommends the kind with a fluorescent ring.
Regarding scroll saws, I want to point out that only "special" projects require a machine with a throat capacity larger than 16". So larger machines may be nice for some reasons or other reasons, but it is not like choosing a larger size capacity is going to drastically change what you can do on the scroll saw.9/18/2014 03:52:07 PM Report Abuse
There are also books on the different areas of scrolling, some with a lot of instructions and patterns, some with mostly patterns. Some books are about methods like fretwork, intarsia, segmentation, boxmaking, vase and bowl making, and more. Others focus on toys or puzzles or cars or holiday patterns, and more.9/18/2014 03:48:28 PM Report Abuse
I always advise beginners to use their local library system to find books on the different scrolling techniques. Look for one of the "workbooks" that are intended to give scrolling exercises for various skills needed. You end up with a variety of simple projects. A few books are general books about saws and blades and their features and they have chapters that focus on the various types of projects done on scroll saws, in general.9/18/2014 03:38:52 PM Report Abuse
I've had at least four machines in my time. But I've found that the most high priced machines are not alwasy the best, I've had a few as I said, but the best machine I've ever owned is a old craftsman 16" w/ 2" cut. and trust me I've had the high priced machine. ( my wife still reminds me all the time ) but the best machine is the one you feel good with.5/13/2010 10:46:17 AM Report Abuse
What I suggest to people who ask, start with the medium priced saws. A number of my scrollsaw friends and I started with the low-end saws and were frustrated more that hooked. Even a minor upgrade to a better saw and blades changed our scrollsaw session from frustration to enjoyment.5/13/2010 10:37:54 AM Report Abuse
My advice to beginners is to "TAKE YOUR TIME" !! Start out with an affordable machine, then, if you're hooked, after a while move up to a nicer more precise machine !2/20/2010 08:57:55 PM Report Abuse
The advice is great, however, what scroll saws would you look at.2/20/2010 11:46:38 AM Report Abuse
As a beginner with a scroll saw, any advice is good to have. Thank you.2/18/2010 04:04:36 PM Report Abuse

Reviews for ORB: Off-World Resource Base
Great with Limtationscaspica | June 16, 2013 | See all caspica's reviews »
ORB is marketed to be a hardcore RTS and that is indeed, arguably. Some of the more hardcore gamers will still object to a gameplay system that could be, whilst still advanced, more complex. That aside the game the game can still boast with quite fantastic graphics all across the board, from the ships to the asteroids to the nebulae clouds, given it's a near decade ORB released. The mechanics of the game, as I mentioned earlier, are great - although I should give a warning for the repetetive nature of it - to those looking for a challenge but it's not The Hardcore Space RTS we've all been looking for. The game is still fun though in places and I can definitely recommend it to any one remotely interested in a rather cheap space or RTS's.
Fairly goodjeyko | Aug. 12, 2012 | See all jeyko's reviews »
ORB is a fun space RTS game. There are two races which fight against eachother for resources. The thing is - it's kind of boring. The gameplay is repetitive and consists of you just repeating the same stuff. The graphics are okay, but that's it. If you are looking for a cheap and fun space sim, ORB is not a bad choice

text: Found this bike on Craigslist, and the seller is willing to sell it for $350. My road bike could use an upgrade (specifically the frame), and I'm also thinking I can use some of the parts in my FG build. I'm specifically thinking the wheels. Would those wheels be decent to use on a FG? Obviously I'd take the cassette off, but would the Ultegra hubs work ok? Was considering getting some DP18's laced to formula hubs for the FG build, figure these would be comparable and would let me kill two birds with one stone.

The Department of Transportation (DOT) levied a record-breaking $375,000 fine against Spirit Airlines as punishment for a number of consumer rights abuses. The fine includes $215,000 the airline must pay immediately, and another $160,000 pending a follow-up investigation.
Here's the rap sheet, straight from the DOT's mouth:
- "Spirit bumped passengers from oversold flights but did not provide compensation or a written notice of passengers' rights to compensation—as required by DOT rules protecting consumers."
- "Spirit also failed to resolve baggage claims within a reasonable time. In one case, they took 14 months to provide traveler compensation. The airline provided compensation only for baggage on the outbound leg of round-trip flights. And, the airline refused to accept responsibility for missing laptops and other items Spirit had accepted as baggage."
- "Spirit also violated DOT rules requiring airfare ads to state the full price to be paid. The fares advertised omitted fees Spirit tacked onto base fares."
Spirit did not deny any of the DOT's charges.
That said, the airline did speak up on its behalf, saying that it corrected many of the underlying problems that caused the "customer experience challenges," as it were. Dan Castelveter, spokesman for the Air Transport Association, offered a stronger defense. "We don't cause the delays," he said, intimating that an out-of-date air traffic control system is the fundamental problem with the air travel industry. "We don't want the delays." He also suggested that a passenger bill of rights would make things worse.
Well, put me firmly in the "fine-them" camp, and I'm glad the DOT seems to be ramping up its pursuit and punishment of airlines that violate customer-protections rules. And while I understand why the industry is wary of a passenger bill of rights—there's no doubt the provisions likely to be included will cause headaches for the airlines—I might suggest such a bill is only necessary due to the airlines' pattern of unsympathetic behavior toward their paying customers. Spirit's violations illustrate that behavior perfectly, and my hope is the DOT's response is a clear message to the industry: You're going to get what's coming to you.

technical equipment, the use of which is calculated or
likely to increase the margin of operational safety of
civil aircrafts.
on equipments and necessary facilities for technical
research or normal use.
The idea of a center
for aviation training in Nigeria was first
mooted at an International Forum, the 12th
International Civil Aviation Organisation
(ICAO) Assembly, held in San Diego,
California, USA, in 1959. The Federal
Government of Nigeria then formally
requested the United Nations Development
Programme to appoint an expert to assess the
actual requirements for the setting up of a
Civil Aviation Training Center in Nigeria.The report of the
project was approved in 1963, and a bill
establishing a Center for Civil Aviation
Training at Zaria, Nigeria, was passed by
the Federal Legislature on 29th
September, 1964, and signed into law on
October 23, 1964.
The Center was established
as a joint programme between the Federal
Government of Nigeria (FGN), the United
Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and
the International Civil Aviation
Organisation (ICAO). This joint programme of
assistance from the UNDP and ICAO came to an
end on 31st December, 1974 and
the Federal Government of Nigeria assumed
full responsibility for the continued
management and operation of the College.
In 1977, the Board of
Governors of the College recommended to the
Federal Government a change of name from
to NIGERIAN COLLEGE OF AVIATION TECHNOLOGY
(NCAT), in anticipation of expansion of
training and related activities. Official
approval did not come until 1986, when the
Government issued a White Paper on the
"Report of the Fact-Finding Panel into the
Activities of the Civil Aviation Department
in the Federal Ministry of Aviation". The
change of name was reflected in Decree No.
41 of 1990.
The College is located
in Palladan, a suburb of Zaria in Kaduna
State. Over the years, Palladan has evolved
from a small colonial farming settlement to
a large community. Zaria is a large city
with a cosmopolitan population of about
1,500,000. Areas of economic importance
include farming and education, hence it can
easily be referred to as an "educational
town," being home to various academic
institutions like the prestigious Ahmadu
Bello University (ABU), Federal College of
Education (FCE), Nigerian Institute of
Transport Technology (NITT), National
Research Institute of Chemical Technology (NARICT)
and Chemical and Leather Research Technology
Zaria is characterized by a tropical,
continental climate with an extensive dry
season (October – May). During this period,
a cool is usually experienced due to the
North-Easterly winds (the Harmattan) which
controls the tropical continental air mass
coming in from the Sahara. This weather
prevails over most parts of the country.
Temperatures get as low as 10oC
at night and a high of 40oC is
often recorded in afternoons. In March and
April, hot but dry weather is encountered,
trailed by a sweeping-in of the tropical
maritime air mass from the Atlantic Ocean
which displaces the North-Easterly winds.
Temperature recorded during this period
ranges between 38oC – 42oC.
The moisture laden South-Westerly monsoon
winds then take over, bringing in heavy
rainfall between May – September/October.

Padres relievers can't shut the door after starter Ross leaves in fifth, putting Colorado on brink of sweep
DENVER He was the new kid off the trading block, but also a bit of a mystery man. The only thing the Padres really knew firsthand about Tyson Ross was how well he pitched when the games didn't count.
This one counted. Against the Padres, ultimately.
Ross didn't work terribly fast or with particular efficiency, but the tall right-hander did enough to settle down baseball's mightiest opening-week lineup and even maintained a 1-1 game at Coors Field through his 96 pitches. As soon as Ross came out of the game in the fifth inning, though, things went real wrong in a hurry for a 6-3 loss to the Colorado Rockies Saturday.
One Sunday matinee away from ending this season-opening road trip, the Padres are 1-4 and scoring an average of 2.6 runs per game, the last two played against one of baseball's least-reputable pitching staffs at 5,280 feet.
Returning to form before Ross had finished being congratulated in the dugout, the Rockies dinked three RBI singles off beleaguered relief pitcher Brad Brach, then made a still-close contest a lot less close with Michael Cuddyer's two-run homer off Andrew Cashner in the seventh.
The homer was the 11th by Colorado's offense in five games. Already, and prematurely, local comparisons are being made to the "Blake Street Bombers" who used to blast baseballs out of Coors Field with resounding regularity.
"We want to intimidate teams here," new Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "This can be one of the best home-field advantages in the game."
The Padres have made one complete rotation through their rotation, and of all the starters, the one who created the most curiosity was Ross. A pitcher who bounced back and forth between the Oakland Athletics and their Triple-A team the past three years, Ross was highly impressive in Cactus League play, and he managed to overcome himself to basically get the job done in his National League debut.
"He battled, he really did," manager Bud Black said. "The first inning (34 pitches) put him behind the 8-ball, but he kept us in there. We saw it in spring training. There's a poise there. He's confident, a clear-thinker. What we saw tonight was what we saw in the spring. I like the fact that he didn't do anything different tonight."
Ross walked four and threw two wild pitches, but the hard-hitting Rockies had trouble making decent contact on him. As the Mets had in their struggle with Padres left-hander Eric Stults, the Rockies hit foul after foul off Ross, who also showed a knack for escaping trouble.
"I was so focused on keeping it down," he said. "I think I was trying to be too fine and threw too many walks. But, except for getting the pitch count up, it felt great out there."
The Padres couldn't get away from another error by shortstop Everth Cabrera, whose misplay on a grounder led to three unearned runs in a 5-2 loss Friday. On the last pitch thrown by Ross, Cabrera again couldn't find the handle on a grounder, and three more Rockies runs ensued.
Dexter Fowler welcomed him immediately with a single and Ross walked Carlos Gonzalez before Cuddyer drove home the run with a single. A wild pitch put Gonzalez on third, but Ross got Todd Helton to ground out to end the rally.
Likewise, the Padres tied the game with a fourth-inning outburst that had the potential for much more than the one run. Loading the bases on starter Jon Garland with no outs, the Padres got Carlos Quentin home with Amarista beating out a double-play relay. That's all they got, though, when Cameron Maybin also hit a double-play ball that the Rockies converted.

OK, so an anti-aging skincare regime is not going to rewind time and make you look like your beautiful, flawless 20 year-old self (I wish), but it will create a long-lasting glow and keep your skin relatively smooth and supple. I swear by my routine and I am always bragging about my favorite products, which are almost always 100% organic. Why organic?
Strap in, ladies, because I'm about to tell you.
Organic skincare products may just seem like a new fad designed to squeeze a few extra bucks out of you, but in fact those two or three ingredients (ie: harmful chemicals) missing from the product will make all the difference. In the US, the FDA regulates most of the harmful chemicals from our foods and drugs. However, they are much more lenient with make-up and skincare products, allowing harmful chemicals including mercury, dioxane, nitrosamines, alcohol isopropyl (SD-40) and polyethylene glycol into your beloved skincare serums. By now, you're probably either throwing all of your non-organic make-up away or rolling your eyes and saying, "Get to the point already!"
My point is just this: these harmful chemicals are not good for your skin, especially in anti-aging products. The harsh chemicals will act as a shallow, moderately skin-tightening solution when on, and make your skin worse as soon as you take it off. Organic skincare regimes, in contrast, are completely natural and will create a long-lasting effect with NO mystery ingredients and NO carcinogenic toxins. Benefits of Organic Anti-Aging Skincare
If you're worried about ludicrous prices, some of my favorite products are actually affordable! The best anti aging serum I've used so far is Herbalistic's Vitamin C Serum 20% with Vitamin E and hyaluronic acid — also with additional jojoba oil and aloe vera. And if you're worried about the sound of hyaluronic acid, let me just assure you that hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the human body and it proven to actually prevent the effects of aging (some even call it the "fountain of youth")! This product is completely organic (with NO alcohol, parabens or sulfates) and such a steal at only $35. Plus, they offer a full money-back guarantee if you don't find the product satisfactory. If that isn't a risk-free deal I don't know what is.
So if you haven't already done it. ditch the non-organic anti-aging serums and opt for a completely stable, active and bio-organic skincare regime. Your face will be smooth, supple, and glowing, and you might even feel better without all of those weird toxins sinking into your pores all the time. Your skin will thank you for it. Seriously.

Aurora police said a Denver man became so angry that the new "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3" game wasn't in stock that he threatened to show store employees some real violence.
Best Buy employees told police that Lomorin Sar, 31, threatened to blow up the store and shoot employees in the parking lot just after the game's midnight release.
A store manager called 911, and police pulled over Sar's SUV outside the store at 3511 Salida Court. Sar was angry because he said he had preordered the game Monday and his copy was not available at the store.
Police issued Sar a summons alleging misdemeanor disorderly conduct. His only previous record in Colorado was a traffic ticket in 2009, in which he pleaded guilty to driving with an unauthorized license, records show.

The Effects of Credit Attitude and Socioeconomic Factors on Credit Card and Installment Debt
Chien, Yi-Wen, Devaney, Sharon A., The Journal of Consumer Affairs
Most previous research on credit use has examined the effect of socioeconomic and attitude variables without considering the possible correlation among these factors. Also, the studies have not considered whether there is a difference between general and specific attitudes toward credit and the use of credit. This study addresses those problems and includes installment debt as well as credit card debt in the analysis. The study used data from the 1998 Survey of Consumer Finances. The findings show the higher the specific attitude index, the higher the outstanding credit card balances, and the more favorable the general attitude toward using credit, the higher the installment debt. The results suggest the need for greater awareness on the part of consumers and consumer educators on the influence of attitude in the use of credit.
Do consumers' attitudes toward credit influence their use of it? Many studies have concluded that the dramatic growth in credit use since the 1980s is due, in fact, to the change in attitude toward credit (Canner and Cyrnak 1985; Godwin 1998; Norton 1993; Park 1993). Such a change in attitude implies that consumers are more willing to use credit to finance current consumption. Greater accessibility of credit (Bird, Hagstrom, and Wild 1997; Park 1993) or more knowledge about the benefits and risks involved in using credit (Kinsey and McAlister 1981) might account for the increased acceptability of credit. The widespread use of credit cards reflects consumer preference regarding prearranged lines of credit, and technological developments have made it much easier for creditors to offer revolving credit (Durkin 2000).
However, attitude might not necessarily predict behavior. Many studies in social psychology have found that attitude and behavior are not always compatible (Ajzen 1996). Sometimes a consumer's preference set is not equal to his or her choice set. For example, a consumer might like movie A rather than movie B, but because of social or situational pressures, the consumer decides to see movie B anyway. Although the attitude-behavior relationship has been studied extensively in social psychology, the attitude-behavior relationship in consumer finance may be more complex. For instance, consumers might have favorable attitudes toward borrowing, but because they have lower incomes or poor credit histories, they may be credit constrained.
Another issue associated with credit use is whether or not attitude has a net effect on credit use. The net effect of attitude means the effect of attitude on credit use after the effects of other factors such as demographic and economic factors have been removed. Because attitude toward credit might be highly related to demographic and economic factors (Bird, Hagstrom, and Wild 1997; Danes and Hira 1990; Modigliani 1986; Zhu and Meeks 1994), it is possible that attitude could only mediate the effects of demographic or economic factors on credit use. In other words, attitude might not have a unique effect on credit use at all. For example, instead of a simple preference for borrowing, those who are in the early stages of their career might have more favorable attitudes toward borrowing because they expect to have more future resources to pay off their debts. Also, high-income consumers might have more favorable attitudes toward credit use because they are less likely to be credit constrained and have more ab ility to pay off their debts than low-income consumers. Thus, consumers with different demographic and economic characteristics might develop different attitudes toward credit use. If so, would attitude still have a unique influence on credit use, after the effects of demographic and economic factors on credit use have been removed?
Most studies have examined the effects of attitude along with demographic and economic variables on credit use without considering the possible correlation among the variables (Calem and Mester 1993; Canner and Cymak 1985; Lown and Ju 1992). …

Google recently started a contest awarding the winner with a pair of their Google Glasses. In order to win, contestants submit 50 words to explain how they would use the glasses. With these revolutionary glasses, you can access everything from the type of plant you're staring at to the menus and Yelp reviews of every restaurant in site as you walk down the street. With an imagination, the possibilities seem to be endless with the Google Glasses, and this creativity is exactly Google was trying to tap into with their recent contest.
But how could these glasses revolutionize the stress-filled traveling experience? JetBlue entered the contest and took a stab addressing this age-old question of how the airport experience can be improved. JetBlue surmised that these glasses will allow the traveler to be better-informed by having access to all sorts of travel-related information right in front of their face, literally.

Lawyers for the former prosecutor in the
Duke lacrosse sexual assault case will argue that the ethics
charges that could lead to his disbarment should be dismissed.
The North Carolina State Bar has scheduled a hearing for April
13th to consider a motion to dismiss the ethics case against Durham
County District Attorney Mike Nifong. He initially led the
investigation into allegations a woman hired as a stripper was
raped at a lacrosse team party in March 2006.
Nifong turned the case over to state prosecutors in January
after the bar charged him with violating several rules of
professional conduct, including withholding evidence from lawyers
defending the three players charged in the case. He's also accused
of lying to the court and to bar investigators, and making
misleading and inflammatory comments about the players.
If the charges are not dismissed, Nifong goes on trial beginning
June 12th.

A Treasury of Jewish Folklore (original 1948; edition 1989)
by Nathan Ausubel
Exhaustive and fascinating anthology of Jewish myths, legends, parables and other material. I really enjoyed reading all the different stories, including many I had never heard before (such as one tale in which the whale Leviathan teaches a boy 70 languages and studies Torah with him!). The wide-ranging collection is well-organized by theme, and Ausubel includes useful introductions with insights and context for each section. Well worth the read for anyone interested in Judaism and/or folklore.
NO OF PAGES: 505 SUB CAT I: Jewish Folklore SUB CAT II: SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: Chosen from 3,000 years of rich tradition, here are the best anecdotes, parables, proverbs, legends and wisdom of an extraordinary people. From heroes and heroines to matchmakers, fools demons, rogues, sinners, schlemihls, schlimazls and schnorrers, here are characters that come unforgettably alive in more than 500 tales that inspire, instruct and entertain. And here are the treasures of the Talmud and the Midrash, vividly re-created by Nathan Ausubel to capture the drama and the power of these ancient, time-honored revelations.NOTES: Anonymous donar. SUBTITLE: A celebration of the stories, traditions, legends, humor, wisdom, heroes, and songs of the Jewish people
An Anthology of Jewish songs and stories from the ancient to the modern
Book Description: Crown Publishers, NY, 5th Printing, 1948dj. Dust jacket is in excellent condition and book is also in excellent condition
When I was a little girl, I read this book over and over again. My mom now refers to me as a "stomach Jew," a Jew more culturally-attuned than religious. This book had a lot to do with that. My favorite stories were about the miracle-working rabbis, the ones who tried to bring about the coming of the Messiah. Perhaps not a coincidence, then, that when I grew up and became a medievalist, I studied the cult of saints!

The Czech Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra will open the yearlong Ithaca College Concerts series "Sounds of Home" on Friday, October 3, in Ford Hall in the James J. Whalen Center for Music. The performance will begin at 8:15 p.m.
In a tribute to Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Karel Husa, a former longtime School of Music faculty member and a native Czech, the ensemble will perform Husa's Pastoral. Also on the program will be a Mozart overture, a Prokofiev symphony, and Beethoven's third piano concerto, featuring Welsh pianist Richard Ormrod.
Husa will deliver a pre-concert lecture at 7:30 p.m. in the Robert A. Iger Lecture Hall. He will be joined by the chamber orchestra's artistic director, Pavel Prantl. Preferred seating will be held in the concert hall for those attending the lecture.
