In 2007 the principals of Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion were implemented. It was through our experiences working with individuals and families struggling with vision challenges that it became obvious that a service modality was not being fully explored in this community. Dr. DeAnn Fitzgerald, OD, with Therese Molloy, OT, began to develop a special niche service that bridges the gap between assessment and treatment for children and adults with visual processing dysfunction. The motto became, "It is a brain thing". Seventy percent of the brain is dedicated to vision in some fashion. When there are mismatches in sensory inputs the brain is not able to process effectively or efficiently. It was identified that in this gap lies an opportunity to be a proactive change agent in the support of cognitive ability, attention/concentration, problem solving, memory, visual processing abilities, mental health, and other functional aspects of daily living.
Due to the failure to adequately conceptualize the needs of the person as they present, precious windows of opportunity for treatment and intervention were being missed. Parents and caregivers should be given new information through neuropsychological assessments and consultations that can make a direct impact upon day-to-day interactions.
It was as a result of these observations of clinical efficacy and limited access that a group of medical experts began to conceptualize Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion.
Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion was born from these early discussions. Dr. DeAnn Fitzgerald, O.D. and Therese Molloy, OT established the clinical practice in January 2007, blending occupational therapy and optometry, while coordinating with other health care professionals to provide comprehensive vision care wellness and rehabilitation services.
When Vision In Motion began serving children and families in its new clinical environment, the service disparity between consumers with financial resources and those without became very obvious. This disparity was so stark that Dr. Fitzgerald began to think very seriously how to facilitate a service delivery model that would be able to include the under-insured and uninsured consumer. This strong commitment led to discussions for the establishment of a nonprofit entity known as Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion.
The Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion was founded in October 2008. The Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion is dedicated to raising and distributing funds to pay for services to uninsured or under-insured families. CR Vision In Motion hopes to develop innovative educational and treatment services while training professionals to serve this targeted population.
One cutting edge treatment that CR Vision In Motion is proud to offer is Sensory Integration Program, it is an immersion technique using 12 consecutive days in-office and 18 days of home therapy:
Sensory Integration Program
The body takes in information through (yes,seven) sensory systems. Five are commonly known: Sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. However, two senses are lesser known, but no less significant. These senses are: Vestibular, which tells us where our bodies are in space, and give us what is called "gravitational security", or the knowledge that we can move without falling, and Proprioceptive, which tells us where our body parts are in relation to one another. This sense gives us the ability to know where each part of our body starts and stops, and to coordinate how we move our body in order to accomplish tasks.
When a child's body and brain cannot communicate well about information coming from ANY of the seven senses, the input becomes confusing or meaningless to the child. this may lead to behavioral problems, delays in skill development, or a child's inability to function in every day roles and tasks.
A child who is struggling to process sensory information may:
- Move fast and often
- Have difficulty sitting still
- Avoid noise, touch, or movement
- Avoid, or become distressed by, busy environments
- Be sensitive to food or clothing textures (picky eater or dresser)
- Have difficulty listening
- Be frequently defiant, or like to be "in control"
- Appear clumsy or accident prone
- Tire more easily than others his/her age
After an evaluation of each child's specific sensory processing strengths and concerns, a treatment plan is developed to target those sensory areas where the child is either under- or over- sensitive. Sensory Integration teaches the child's body to better read, interpret, an use sensory information coming in from the environment. It also helps the child to learn what the body needs in order to function well. Improved sensory processing allows the child to interact with the environment more effectively and improve focus tasks.
The child/family will often see improvements in:
Independent and age-appropriate eating/dressing (less picky,dresses appropriate to weather)
Ability to interact appropriately with family members and peers
Ability to focus on tasks such as school work or chores
Decrease in hyperactivity
Every person is unique, including identical twins. So the list above is the universal changes we have recorded, but each individual because of internal biochemistry and environmental experiences can have infinite combinations of success.
Occupational Therapy Services
Cedar Rapids Vision In Motion is a unique clinic providing sensory and motor-based assessment and intervention. As part of the multidisciplinary team at Vision In Motion, we strive to gain a holistic (or whole person) view of each child. This means understanding how the child functions in a variety of environments such as home, school, with family, with peers, etc. All assessments and interventions are specifically tailored to the maximum benefit of each individual child.
We assist in providing differential diagnoses (for example, between Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder) in order to create a treatment approach that addresses the underlying cause of the child's behaviors/issues.
Issues that we address in the Optometric and Occupational Therapy Clinic include:
- Learning Disability
- Developmental Disability
- Motor Coordination
- Gross or Fine Motor Development
- Amblyopia
- Lazy Eye
- Sensory Processing
- Balance/Equilibrium
- Handwriting
- Strength/Endurance
- Range of Motion
Concerns such as these are often seen in conjunction with several diagnoses,such as:
- Attention Deficit/hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD's)
- Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)
- Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)
- Reactive Attachment disorder (RAD)
- Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS)
- Cerebral Palsy (CP)
- Regulatory Disorders

The Auxvasse Police Department is trying to have a few more eyes on the street, but it won't be uniformed officers.
The unit will host a meeting for prospective members of a neighborhood watch program at 9 a.m. on Saturday, July 12, at Auxvasse City Hall.
The event will provide information for all interested parties about where help is needed and how much assistance will be necessary. The city has had a neighborhood watch in the past, but its revival has been tossed around city hall the last couple of years, according to Auxvasse City Clerk Missy Hooks.
According to Hooks, the discussion of the neighborhood watch's re-emergence has picked up in the last six months due to rashes of burglaries and juvenile vandalism throughout the city.
Though details of what the watch will entail weren't discussed, Hooks said it could be as simple as calling or texting an officer if you witness something suspicious.
"When we have citizens complain about stuff, if they don't report it to us until a week or two later, it's too late," Hooks said. "If they can make a phone call (to the police) immediately and let someone know what's going on, they can approach it in a better manner."
Auxvasse Police Chief Kevin Suedmeyer echoed the need for more citizens to take note of criminal behavior around town and believes that an open line of communication with the police department will make it easier to come forward when Auxvasse residents witness wrongdoing.
"The more eyes you have watching, the better you are," Suedmeyer said.

Finding Aladdin's secret treasures
An Arabian adventure – that's what Freej Folklore, a new theatrical production opening in Dubai claims to be.
January 7, 2009 4:24 by Aarti Nagraj
We arrived very late, but managed to catch the last bit of the media preview of Freej Folklore, a theatrical show produced in Dubai, which opens to the public on Thursday.
And that was enough to impress us. Remember Ali Baba, Sindbad and Aladdin and all those Arabian stories you heard as a child? Well, the show brings them all to life.
Freej was originally a cartoon about Emirati grannies. In Freej Folklore, the four main Freej characters, Um Saeed, Um Allawi, Um Saloom and Um Khammas will join more than 100 performers to present the show which, according to its producers, mixes live, virtual and acrobatic performances with animation, film, and light. The storyline takes you through the past and the present, and brings to light the mythical and cultural tales of Arabia.
The show, which is produced by Lammtara, the company behind the animated television series Freej, in partnership with Dubai-based production company JBM and presented by Nakheel, has involved 24 months of production work, with a cast and crew of 250 people. Right now, they are all keeping their fingers crossed and waiting to go on stage.
The best part about the show though, is its strong reliance on digital; we were allowed to peek backstage, where we saw screens, projectors, foil and only a few prop pieces. The digital dependence must have been costly, (while the producers refused to reveal the cost, we presume it must run into the millions of dirhams) but it means great effects (the genie was very real) and greater mobility. After all, the producers hope to take the show across the world after its run in Dubai.
"The show is a great step forward in the Arab entertainment industry, and it will change the way people perceive Arab theatre," says Mohammed Saeed Harib, the founder of Lammtara and the director of the show.
If you want to catch "the largest Arab theatrical production in the Middle East," as the producers call Freej Folklore, it's on from January 8 to 17 at the Madinat Jumeirah Arena. The show is available in Arabic and English, and tickets are priced between AED200 and AED1,200.

Yonkers Public Schools Partner with GSE for STEM Learning Lab
Contact: Gina Vergel
(212) 636-7175
These soon-to-be Yonkers public school seventh graders enjoyed summer school at the Yonkers/Fordham STEM lab.
Photos by Angie Chen
Few children would agree that failing a class and then attending school in July qualifies as a fun summer.
But that's exactly what happened over 17 days last month, thanks to a program co-developed and implemented by Fordham's Center for Educational Partnerships (CEP).
About 100 sixth graders who failed at least two subjects discovered the excitement of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) in the "Grade 6 STEM Learning Lab" at Yonkers High School.
Fordham consultants worked with teachers in their classrooms to instill a problem-solving approach to the lessons, and held professional development sessions on the collaborative style afterward.
The result was a hugely successful poster presentation session on July 29 at Fordham's Rose Hill campus.
Twelve-year-old Jean Hakim beamed as he explained what he and his classmates researched on air pollution.
"We measured our carbon footprints," said Hakim, who will enter seventh grade in the fall. "We learned about hybrid cars and then we got to poke around in one in the parking lot. It was so much fun."
Hakim's enthusiasm was matched by the roughly 100 children who presented their findings at Duane Library in front of their peers, family and teachers.
Kraig DeMatteis, a technical and curriculum developer with Fordham's RETC, works with a Yonkers student on preparing a video presentation.
Ann Marie Ciaramella, assistant to the dean of Fordham's Graduate School of Education (GSE), said the outcome brought a flurry of positive reactions from educators in the program.
"Every single one of the teachers told us that the students in their classes were very bright, very verbal and really participated," she said. "They'd ask, 'Why are they here? They should have passed!' Well, they've passed now because the environment was different."
Ciaramella, who has worked with the Yonkers Public Schools on other professional development initiatives, said the district won a grant to bring innovative STEM education to students and sought Fordham's help to develop a program.
"It is gratifying to see GSE work reaching not only teachers, but their students as well," said James J. Hennessy, Ph.D., dean of the Graduate School of Education.
"Making connections to maximize resources and increase achievement is what we are all about," added Anita Vazquez Batisti, Ph.D., associate dean and director of CEP.
Amanda Curley, director of school improvement with Yonkers Public Schools, said district administrators questioned the effectiveness of regular summer schools, where students sit for two hours a day over six weeks reviewing materials that they already had failed.
Students presented posters, videos and more to parents, teachers and friends.
"Is that the way to ensure they've mastered the skills they didn't have before? We weren't sure about that," she said. "We also knew that short summer programs for students that hadn't failed yielded tremendous results. So why not let all students have the experience?
"It's been wonderful and we plan to do it again. When you have students who have been failing school and they come in here and are so excited about what they've learned and done, it's a lesson for all of us," Curley added.
The program paired a science and elementary school teacher with a Fordham consultant and assigned them to a cluster of no more than 13 students. Each group researched air, water or land pollution.
There were no textbooks or pre-determined lessons. Students drew upon their own experiences, using problem-solving techniques and inquiry, and conducted research using the Internet, trade magazines and journals and experiences in the field.
Technology played a large role; staff from Fordham's RETC: Center for Professional Development worked with Ciaramella and consultants from CEP.
"We came up with the idea of the students documenting what they were doing through digital storytelling," said Kraig DeMatteis, a technical and curriculum developer at RETC.
Students used Flip cameras and free video editing software to piece together a documentary or news story on what they learned.
"Here are kids who failed two subjects," DeMatteis said, "yet they were able to shoot footage and produce videos within a week. To see the projects and the success that they've had, I think it's saying something major."
Sunitha Howard, a science teacher at Ralph Waldo Emerson Middle School, agreed.
"This is the most fun we've had so far—teachers and students," she said. "The kids had so many hidden talents that we were able to showcase. We're very excited."
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.

This is a great product, it is easy to use and takes up only a small space because it is stackable. I have already recommended this to firends and they purchased them.
- Benefits & Description
Benefits & DescriptionConvenient Portability | Built to Take a Beating | Stackable to 7 Feet
• Keep Your Family Safe in an Emergency
These 16 containers hold a 112 day drinking water supply (almost 4 months) yielding you from dehydration during natural disasters. • Feel Secure in Your Preparations
Containers are made from 100% non-toxic food-grade HDPE, and are completely BPA free. • Convenient Portability
The included handles make transportation easy. The WaterBricks do not roll over easy so they work well in car transportation. They can also be tied down through the two structural holes in the middle giving a variety of different uses and storage flexibility. • Make Emergency Preparedness Convenient
These sturdy and stackable water containers enable you to store an adequate water supply while still saving floor space for other emergency supplies. They are also great for storing food items! Our WaterBrick bundle is a great way to start building a water storage (can store food as well) supply or augment your existing one with a very convenient way to move water around. Having an easy to move water storage system allows easier distribution of the water or food items in a time of need. Due to the thick and extremely strong plastic you can feel confident that your container will not pierce if debris smashes into your stacked water supply during a disaster.
Note: Before filling with water, make sure gaskets are facing the right direction as seen here. Occurs to less than 1% of Waterbricks but small leaks will occur if gasket is not facing the right direction.
Storing emergency water and food just got a little bit easier! These WaterBricks are made of rugged, high-density polyethylene (HDPE), these unique containers add value by cross stacking up to 7 feet tall for maximum efficient storage. Wide diameter lid opening with notched easy grip lid allows for an average adult to pull stored contents out of the container by hand. Stores water, food or anything you want to keep dry or store efficiently while eliminating most food odors. FDA approved and BPA free. Great for camping, boating, and ATV riding too!
Most organizations recommend 1 gallon a day for consumption and hygiene purposes so a kit like this will meet that demand for 56 days but if you are looking at just using your treated water for drinking then it will last 112 days.

The greatest asset for effective integration of truth is a solid knowledge of the Bible. The Biblical Literature courses are designed to give students an understanding and appreciation of the Word of God and its application. The Biblical Literature major exposes students to a broad spectrum of hermeneutical and exegetical perspectives, tools and methods so they may interpret the Bible responsibly and perceptively within a theological-historical framework.
Students who choose the Biblical Literature area choose one of three concentrations: English Bible, Old Testament or New Testament. Students with an English Bible concentration study the entire Bible; the Old Testament concentration emphasizes the content of the Old Testament with the acquisition of the Hebrew language, and the New Testament concentration emphasizes the content of the New Testament with the acquisition of the Greek language.
"Prior to choosing Biblical Literature as my major with a concentration in English Bible, I had tried several others within the theology department, but I could not find one the fit me. After thinking about what I want to do with my life, I can honestly say that English Bible is the perfect fit for me. I will receive a solid biblical foundation from cover to cover. Not only is the Bible a text that we can learn from, but it also brings revelation knowledge about who God is as well as who we are. With this major, you not only receive head knowledge, but heart knowledge; truly the best of both worlds!
A biblical literature degree will prepare you for a career as a:
Increasing in the knowledge of God through the study and interpretation of the written Word, while gaining insight through interactive discussions of the Word with fellow students and caring professors.

Ay mama mia!. Phew! I was starting to get worried. I'm 16 weeks pregnant and have gained approximately 10 lbs. Not bad , but that's only because I work out and eat as healthy as possible. I would of liked to maintain my weight. I was a healthy 127 (5 ft 1) now I feel really swollen everywhere especially my FACE! :/ its kinda depressing but I'm not trying to let it faze me, i have something beautiful growing inside me. I don't want to get carried away though and gain too much. I love working out , its a passion and Itend to continue, slowly but surely. Everyone tells me toooo stop and to not workout!. :( I don't know. I feel good. I feel good, baby feels good. ;-)posted 08/09/2014 by foreveryoung0214
I am 8 weeks along with my 2nd child. I gained an outrageous 63 pds with my daughter who was premature (now 2yrs old) due to my poor eating. As a result I have semi-damage kidneys and high blood pressure!!. My doctor is extremely adamant about me eating healthy and drinking loads of water. For the sake of my baby and I, I have been following exactly what my doc says. I lost 4 pds in a week. I walk several times a week and feel great.. Im glad to hear that losing weight is ok for my baby. I couldnt live with myself if i harm my baby in ANY way by poor eating.... good luck to all with your pregnancies!!posted 06/29/2014 by a BabyCenter Member
I think it's very important to watch what you eat by eating healthy and exercise is important too, but I don't think you should lose weight when you are pregnant. Depending on your body weight you are suppose to gain weight, but don't over do it. Just eat healthy and exercise, but diet and lose weightposted 05/22/2014 by KTABDELAAL89
i started out 20 lbs over weight when i found out i was pregnant. It was disappointing to me thinking that there was nothing i can do about it, but continue to pack on weight through out my pregnancy. Im so glad to be enlighten about the truth. makes me feel like i can still turn my body around and be a little more fit while still pregnant. i will start to workout and eat healthier.posted 03/07/2014 by a BabyCenter Member
I'm now 27 weeks pregnant with my 2nd and 3rd babies...twins that is. I gained 60 lbs with my first, but I was never working out and not in shape before the pregnancy. I also working at Johnny rockets so I are shakes and hamburgers all the time. This time around I was a personal trainer I weighed 125 and was so in shape it was ridiculous. I figured this time around I would know how to keep the weight down, but I am 27 weeks and have gained 60 pounds! I know with twins you are supposed to gain more but this is ridiculous! I went up really fast in the beginning because I stopped working out and that killed me because now it doesn't seem to matter what I do I just keep going up. My doctor said to keep it under 200 and I don't even know if I am going to be able to make that happen :( it is very depressing. I just want these babies out...out and healthy, but out so I can stop gaining!posted 02/21/2014 by AddisonsMomm
I don't even know for sure if I'm pregnant yet but after having gained about 70 pounds with my son--which I still haven't lost and he just turned 18--I swore that if I ever did find myself pregnant again, I wouldn't necessarily "diet" but I would just eat really, really HEALTHILY -- low fat, low carb, lean protein, fruis, veggies, only whole grains, low fat dairy etc. -- get some exercise and get enough sleep. I think if you are in the "obese" category (and we know if we're there, right?) by simply cutting out the junk food that we've most likely been stuffing ourselves with and remember that the baby is like a little parasite. He/She eats WHAT YOU EAT. You are NOT eating for two, but rather, the baby eats what you eat. So if you are eating healthy, low fat food and getting basic exercise, it would seem to me that, despite being pregnant, it would be possible to lose weight during pregnancy and probably be healthier for it.posted 12/04/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
I am underweight 5'7tall and weight 110. Twelve week pregnant i gain only about 3 pounds! Which is feels only my breast is 2 pounds.is it normal? Will i gain weight later???posted 10/26/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Im hispanic, 18 years old and 15 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I fairly short (4 ft, 10 in). I weigh about 163 lbs. When i first found out i was pregnant i weighed about 155 so ive always been over weight. I want to lose weight and for some reason (even tho ive gained weight - its because im a couch potato and eat junk all day) its easier for me to lose weight then ever before... for a while after hitting 161 i went back down to 155... I really want to get down about 30 lbs in the next 6 months. So, I'm thinking (because i know the baby will get bigger and I'm not just holding myself but a baby too) that i want to lose 10 lbs in 3 weeks and then another 10 lbs in 6-8 weeks and then another ten lbs in 8-12 weeks or atleast 5 so that i can be at 140 or 135 with my end wieght. I love my belly but i know its not healthy the way im living right now... so maybe if i eat healthy and walk and do prenatal yoga , only water and low fat milk it'll work --- hopefully we'll see! wish me luck !posted 09/18/2013 by lizbeth199571

There's no place on the new icon for desserts or other snack foods. Instead, these count mostly towards the daily "empty calories" allotment, which includes foods with added sugars and solid fats like butter or shortening.
With empathy to busy parents, and recognizing that they have competing demands that may keep them from feeding their families as well as they would like to, the new icon provides a simple checkpoint. "...We do have time to take a look at our kids' plates," says the First Lady. "As long as they're half full of fruits and vegetables, and paired with lean proteins, whole grains and low-fat dairy, we're golden. That's how easy it is."
The MyPlate icon reminds us to fill half of our plates with produce. Instead of worrying about measuring exact portion sizes, you can now eyeball it to see if you're falling within the new guidelines. This should make it infinitely easier to plan healthy meals and choose what to order when eating out.
The MyPlate icon is just one part of the plan to help get Americans eating better and tackle the obesity epidemic. A host of interactive information and helpful links are available at ChooseMyPlate.gov. "What we have learned over the years is that consumers are bombarded by so many nutrition messages that it makes it difficult to focus on changes that are necessary to improve their diet," said Vilsack. "This new campaign will help unify the public and private sectors to coordinate efforts and highlight one desired change for consumers at a time." Here are some of the key messages that are addressed by the MyPlate campaign:

Obama's Achilles' Heel
What the deficit-commission idea says about his politics.
The soaring campaign-trail rhetoric of change—to which Barack Obama returned this week, as if it were an old girlfriend, in his State of the Union address—has always rested on a faith in transcending factional interests. Since the 19th-century Mugwumps and the early-20th-century Progressives, reformers have placed hopes for building a new consensus in the high-minded invocation of a common good. Self-interested and partisan jockeying for advantage, they insist, corrupts Washington politics and impedes progress.
But constructing an environment free from those pressures of self-interest has always proved to be the Achilles' heel of this political outlook. In a campaign speech—or in a campaign book like The Audacity of Hope—calls to let go of partisan attachments in favor of unifying compromises can easily flourish. But in the halls of Congress, or in the ever-more partisan news media, devotion to interest or ideology invariably reasserts itself and renders the middle ground treacherous.
In his State of the Union speech, Obama nonetheless stated his intent to try to build just such an environment—a politics-free zone in which technocrats and statesmen could tackle a major policy problem without fear of electoral repercussions. Specifically, he said he would issue an executive order creating "a bipartisan fiscal commission, modeled on a proposal by Republican Judd Gregg and Democrat Kent Conrad," focused especially on restraining "the cost of Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security."
Pundits like to recall the 1982-83 Social Security Commission, led by Alan Greenspan, that's believed to have saved the retirement insurance program from bankruptcy. But that historical example is misleading. Not only did the Greenspan commission do less than is commonly supposed, as Jackie Calmes of the New York Times recently wrote; it's also an atypical case, an exception that proves the rule. A more representative example of the bipartisan deficit-reduction commission is the once-hyped, now-forgotten National Economic Commission—a Reagan/Bush-era venture that promised but failed to address what was then seen as a paramount and crippling economic issue. (Its history was first recounted in an article in the Washington Post in October 1992 by Bob Woodward, with assistance from this writer, then a cub reporter.)
When Ronald Reagan's experiment in supply-side economics—cutting taxes, raising defense spending, and expecting federal revenues to surge—went awry, unprecedented budget deficits threatened to cripple the American economy. (Some economists thought the 1987 stock market crash, at the time seen as calamitous, occurred because deficits had grown untenable.) Inspired by the 1983 Greenspan Commission, New York Gov. Mario Cuomo began talking up the idea of a panel that could give politicians the needed cover to do what he said they all privately acknowledged had to be done: cutting defense spending, Medicare, and Social Security while raising taxes. One convert across the aisle was Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole—known as a lifelong deficit hawk until his campaign-year embrace of supply-side economics in 1996—who provided for the commission's creation in a budget bill that Reagan signed during his last year in office.
The commission comprised the usual bipartisan complement of centrist eminences, including Felix Rohatyn of Lazard Freres, Lee Iacocca of Chrysler, Bob Strauss of Akin Gump, Sens. Daniel Patrick Moynihan and Pete Domenici (for whom a seat on every deficit-reduction commission seems to be permanently reserved). In a short time span, virtually all the members agreed to yield on some areas where their party or ideological interests normally resisted: Democrats capitulated on trimming Social Security, Republicans on shaving defense outlays. "It was also clear that to strike a political compact would require some taxes," said commission member Donald Rumsfeld, then a relatively uncontroversial figure presumed to be retired from government service. The trick was they all had to hang together. If a few members rejected the consensus, it would leave anyone who stuck to the compromise—especially the elected officials—vulnerable.

Time Warner Cable Inc.
), the second largest cable multi service operator (MSO) in the
U.S., has inked a deal with
). The deal will allow the largest U.S. satellite TV provider to
broadcast the cable MSO's two sports network in the Los Angeles
(LA) area. The deal could be significantly beneficial for Time
Warner as DirecTV is one of the biggest pay TV distributors in
California with a customer base of about 1.2 million.
On October 1, 2012, Time Warner launched two new sports
channels - Time Warner cable SportsNet and Time Warner Cable
Deportes - that broadcast the LA Lakers basketball games in
addition to games from LA galaxy soccer teams and LA Sparks Women
Basketball team.
Last year, Time Warner cable paid about $2 billion to gain
broadcasting rights of LA basketball games for 20 years. DirecTV
became the fifth company to ink such a deal with the cable MSO,
who earlier announced similar deals with Cox Communications,
Verizon Communications Inc.
AT&T Inc.
) and
Charter Communications Inc.
The deal puts DirecTV in a winning position against arch rival
Dish network, still negotiating with Time Warner cable over a
possible deal. The deal will allow the DirecTV customers to
connect better with their teams as Time Warners' exclusive
partnership with LA teams allow it to provide in depth team
analysis and behind-the-scenes coverage unlike ever before.
Sports entertainment has become the most expensive form of
programming with nationwide sports channel charging as much as $5
per subscriber while regional sports channel is charging only
$2-$3 from their customers.
New York-based Time Warner is negotiating with various pay TV
firms to offer the two sports entertainment channels and is
looking for a monthly average fee of $3.95 per subscriber. We
believe such deals will allow Time Warner Cable to cover its
hefty contract fees and at the same time hedge its escalating
programming cost by offering these less expensive regional sports
We maintain our long-term Neutral recommendation on Time
Warner Cable. The company also retains a Zacks #3 Rank, implying
a short-term Hold rating.

We expose slave masters and people smugglers in suburban Britain.
South Africa's Julius Malema talks to Al Jazeera
02 Jul 2008 20:18 GMT
French opposition
The Doha talks on world trade were launched nearly seven years ago in an attempt to ease poverty and boost the global economy.
The French president, speaking on French television on Monday, had accused Mandelson and Pascal Lamy, the WTO chief, of trying to force a deal on the EU that would be bad for its farming sector.
Mandelson rejected the charge and said the EU needed to speak with one voice.
He said: "You know in all negotiations in trade as in all other areas, our unity is our strength. We want an outcome that is balanced, which is fair, for everyone including Europe.
"That is what I'm negotiating for but if I'm undermined, then my ability to reach that outcome will be weakened and I'm sorry for that."
France has long opposed the kind of farm import tariff cuts that Mandelson is offering in return for better access for European exporters of cars, chemicals and other manufactured goods in developing countries such as Brazil and India.
Missed dinner
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Sarkozy took another swipe at Mandelson, saying he regretted the British commissioner would not be attending a dinner at his palace along with other EU officials to mark the start of the French EU presidency.
"It's because we don't debate issues enough in Europe that we don't manage to explain what's at stake in Europe."
Last month, Sarkozy accused Mandelson of being partly to blame for Ireland's rejection of a new EU treaty because Irish farmers were alarmed by his WTO proposals on agriculture.
Mandelson's spokesman said Sarkozy had used "false assumptions" in claiming that a WTO deal would lead to a 20 per cent cut in EU farming output and 100,000 job losses.
He said that Mandelson had been unable to attend Sarkozy's dinner on Tuesday because he was travelling to Marseille to meet trade ministers from countries around the Mediterranean.
Barroso backing
Mandelson appeared to have won the backing of his boss Jose Manuel Barroso, the European commission president, over the row.
Barroso's spokeswoman said on Wednesday that he continued to trust Mandelson.
In a statement made on behalf of the president, Pia Ahrenkilde-Hansen said: "Peter Mandelson has done a great deal of difficult work and negotiates for all 27 member states and has done excellent work."
Ministers from leading WTO countries are preparing to meet from July 21 to discuss the issue.
Without a breakthrough, the round could be delayed by several more years because of the 2009 change in the United States administration.
Fredrik Erixon, a trade expert at the European centre for international political economy, a Brussels think-tank, said Sarkozy might be positioning himself to cope with outrage from French farmers in the unlikely event of a WTO deal this month.
Erixon said: "He doesn't have much to lose by making these very tough statements against Mandelson. If there is an agreement, the French farmers are going to oppose it and Sarkozy can at least claim to have tried his best for them."

Sarkozy points to errors in the way Europe has been built and calls for change.
The European Union has ironed out internal differences regarding world trade talks, but disputed with Washington over the issue of agricultural subsidies.

"Overall, our students often see such things as a way to celebrate their culture, not demean it. And in this case, we chose to follow our students' lead and look at the Caledonian's intent, not taking offense where none was intended," Lovett said.

Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards is criticizing the Bush's administration's economic policies.
Edwards told supporters in Chattanooga, Tennessee, yesterday his
background growing up in the Carolinas gives him a better perspective on problems facing the South than his rivals, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
The former North Carolina senator says the Bush administration has worked to make sure the rich get richer. Edwards says this comes as middle and low income families are having a hard time surviving.
He challenged those at an International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers auditorium in Chattanooga and a United Steelworkers office in Nashville to be part of what he called a "tidal wave of change" in America.

They declared the bones to be those of Caravaggio ("most likely") after carbon dating and DNA testing. So how'd he die? Well, that's the other question. Maybe murder. Or lead poisoning. Possibly syphilis complicated by sunstroke. They don't know.

4.5M-strong botnet 'most sophisticated threat today' to Windows PCs
Computerworld - A new and improved botnet that has infected more than four million PCs is "practically indestructible," security researchers say.
"TDL-4," the name for both the bot Trojan that infects machines and the ensuing collection of compromised computers,
is "the most sophisticated threat today," said Kaspersky Labs researcher Sergey Golovanov in a detailed analysis Monday.
"[TDL-4] is practically indestructible," Golovanov said.
Others agree.
"I wouldn't say it's perfectly indestructible, but it is pretty much indestructible," said Joe Stewart, director of malware research at Dell SecureWorks and an internationally-known botnet expert, in an interview today. "It does a very good job of maintaining itself."
Golovanov and Stewart based their judgments on a variety of TDL-4's traits, all which make it an extremely tough character to detect, delete, suppress or eradicate.
For one thing, said Golovanov, TDL-4 infects the MBR, or master boot record, of the PC with a rootkit -- malware that hides by subverting the operating system. The master boot record is the first sector -- sector 0 -- of the hard drive, where code is stored to bootstrap the operating system after the computer's BIOS does its start-up checks.

The year 2013 has been a very positive year for Mercedes Benz India, the Indian subsidiary of popular German car manufacturer Mercedes Benz, as far as luxury car sales are concerned. Mercedes Benz India was able to sell a total of 9003 units in India in 2013 and have posted an overall growth of 32 percent when compared to its performance in 2012. Mercedes Benz has made a big leap forward in the car sales as it had just sold 6840 units in December 2012. In fact, the second half of the year has been even more fruitful for Mercedes Benz India as it has recorded a massive growth of 45 percent and the main reason behind this tremendous sales boost is the newly launched products in the Indian luxury car market. It has easily achieved the second position among the luxury car manufacturers in India and it fell short of Audi India by 1000 units. Mercedes Benz has achieved a remarkable sales graph in India in the period July to December and it is looking forward to another fruitful year in 2014.
Mercedes Benz India had earlier named 2013 as a Year of Offensive and it proved its mettle by launching cost effective luxury cars as well as premium luxury cars for the different sections of luxury car buyers. Mercedes Benz India's prime focus was products, dealer network, cost of ownership and brand experience and it really worked in its favor. Mercedes Benz has left behind third place BMW India by quite a big margin and will be hoping to inch near Audi India at the end of 2014.

It was a gorgeous day for some football in West Philadelphia on Sunday as tens of thousands of fans packed historic Franklin Field to watch the Eagles return to their former home for the first time in decades.
The crowd was filled with fans old and new yesterday with some getting one more glimpse of Eagles legends Chuck Bednarik, Tommy McDonald, and Pete Retzlaff in the Birds' former home one more time while many of the kids and twenty-somethings in attendance learned the storied history of the venue for the first time.
While the venue may be well over a century old, the action on the field was Chip Kelly's modern take. The fast paced practice was highlighted by loud music, quick countdown clocks, and seemingly more doing than talking. The players and coaches on the field appeared well orchestrated with every sound of the horn even if those of us in the stands wondered what exactly was going on half the time.
Photographer Tug Haines was on the field to capture some of the cooler moments from the very unique day. Check out some of our favorites below or click here for the full 40 photo gallery.

Flanagan QB Ryan Stanley's record-breaking effort not enough against Miramar
Flanagan quarterback Ryan Stanley was tireless Saturday against Miramar.
Stanley, a sophomore, completed 36 of 65 passes for 320 yards. Those 65 passing attempts set a new Broward County single-game record, surpassing the total of 61 passes thrown by North Broward Prep's Matt Werksman in a 2000 game against Coral Springs Christian.
Unfortunately, Stanley's numbers, which included two touchdown passes, weren't enough, as Miramar earned district runner-up status and a playoff berth with its 35-16 win over the Falcons.
While Flanagan's wait for its first playoff berth continues, Flanagan coach Don Simon is encouraged about the Falcons' future--and Stanley is part of the reason why. He'll be back next season. So will several of his receivers including sophomore Keavon Mitchell, who had 12 catches for 140 yards on Saturday.
"[Stanley] runs our offense. For a sophomore to come in in a leadership role, like he does, and have the seniors follow him like he does, that's hard to find. That kid a true leader and it's not just what he does with his arm," Simon said. "In the locker room, in the hallways, he's a leader. That makes things easier for us. The fact that he's a sophomore is icing on the cake for us. He's a composed kid...he doesn't panic. I'm elated we'll have him for two more years. And all his receivers are here. We're young, but we're still very skilled and very talented."

Alpbach Summer School 2013Monday 11 February 2013
Held annually since 1975, the Alpbach Summer School (Alpbach, Tyrol / Austria) enjoys a long tradition in providing in-depth teaching on aspects of space science and space technology with the aim of advancing the training and working experience of European graduates, post-graduate students, young scientists and engineers. The Summer School is organised by the Aeronautics and Space Agency of FFG (Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft) and co-sponsored by the European Space Agency (ESA).
This year the summer school will take place from 16 to 25 July 2013,
and will address again a very challenging theme
"Space Weather: Science, Missions and Systems".
During lectures and working sessions, participants are given the opportunity to expand and strengthen their knowledge of selected space issues. Within teams they will develop space mission concepts based on the theme of Space Weather. The Summer School thereby fosters the practical application of knowledge derived from lectures, develops organisational and team-work skills and encourages creativity.
The Summer School is open to 60 selected young science and/or engineering graduates (Master, PhD and Postdoc level) from among the member and cooperating states of the European Space Agency (ESA). The working language of the Summer School will be English.
Candidates have to complete an online registration form to be submitted to the Aeronautics and Space Agency of FFG. Furthermore, an endorsement form, duly signed by a University Professor, Head of Department or equivalent, has to be submitted.
The deadline for the registration is 31 March 2013. Confirmation of acceptance will be given by the end of April 2013.
A registration fee of € 400,- will be charged.
For further details regarding the Summer School program and the registration, please refer to: www.summerschoolalpbach.at
Financial support
Prospective participants who are of Luxembourg origin (Luxembourg nationality or Luxembourg residence > 15 yrs) are eligible for financial support by the Fonds National de la Recherche. The financial support covers all fixed expenses related to the participation (registration, accommodation, travel). For other nationalities, please contact your national point of contact.

R&B group Jodeci was booed off the stage at London's Wembley Arena last night after a performance that can only be described as a piping hot mess.
The group was part of a bill titled "The Show," which featured an array 1990s R&B groups. Blackstreet, Dru Hill, SWV, Damage and Changing Faces were also on the bill.
According to Soul Culture, Jodeci showed up late for their headlining final slot, sang out of tune, and even had Dru Hill perform a track for them at one point.
Original member DeVante Swing was not in attendance, while Mr. Dalvin jumped off stage just 30 seconds into the performance, and was unable to climb back up. Someone had to help him.
Crowd members starting booing after the first song, with the band apparently singing out of sync with each other and begging the crowd to let them continue.
Watch clip below.

A familiar face in education in Eastern Carolina has taken over the reigns in Bertie County, at least for now. Former Pitt County schools superintendent Michael Priddy will assume the role of interim superintendent for Bertie County schools Thursday. He will serve until a permanent superintendent can be found, which is expected to happen by mid-Summer. Priddy retired from Pitt County schools in 2005. Former Bertie County schools superintendent Nettie Collins-Hart had her contract terminated by the school board just a week ago.

I had an interesting quick exchange with my friend, Marty Troyer, the Peace Pastor and pastor at Houston Mennonite Church. Let me post what he put on his FB page.
Ok, that was awkward. Working at Panera, plugged my headphones in wrong jack, so was blaring my David Crowder Music OUT LOUD for a full 2 1/2 songs before I realized what was happening. Appreciate the grace my Muslim table-neighbor just afforded me with her little aw-shucks grin!
Now, stop and examine your thoughts, your reactions to what you just read.
Go ahead. Think about your thoughts.
Did you read about a Christian who sheepishly realized his blatant, overt, Christian music blaring in the midst of a room that contains Muslims?
Or did you read about a dude who committed a public faux-pas by playing his music out loud in the middle of a public space?
Be honest with yourself.
If you reacted with the latter, then kudos to you! More in a second.
If you reacted with the former, you and me share a similar problem. There are labels in this mini-narrative that kind of stand out. We have a Christian pastor, we have a Christian music artist, and we have a Muslim person interacting in a public space. The labels, "Christian", "pastor", and "Muslim" color the way we interpreted the scenario. Our own experiences coming, perhaps, from some evangelical influences and a concept of "don't be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ" combined with these labels makes us react in a way that some could call prejudice, judgmentalism, and perhaps a bit of fear. And look back up this paragraph and you'll see that I'm right along with you there, too.
But Marty intended the second reading, a reading of simply humans being human together and the little quirks and mistakes that come into play in those situations. The labels, for Marty, were just a way of telling the story, describing the situation. No color was intended, simply a meeting of people.
This whole situation brings to mind a verse from Galations.
So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise Galations 3:26-28
Now, before you cry "UNIVERSALIST!", I'm not saying Islam and Christianity are equals. Please don't go there. What I am pointing out is a truth in this letter from Paul to a church that was stuck in trying to figure out where people belong. Who is Jewish, who is Gentile? How do we categorize and classify people so that we know their "place" in this new society called the People of God? Where do we draw the lines that help us "control" what happens and how it happens?
Paul is saying that these things don't matter any more for people in the Kingdom. No matter whether or not you have a Y chromosome, no matter whether or not you can actually trace yourself back to one of the 12 tribes of Israel, no matter your particular social status or class, you are an heir of Christ's Kingdom, a chosen people, and children of God. This applies especially within the context of that chosen people.
But what about outwards to the rest of the world? I am not saying that we shouldn't recognize differences in cultures and worldviews. If we go around stepping on other people's views all the time, we can very quickly expect the same to happen to us with the inevitable smackdown. Full "color-blindness" is unhelpful because it denies those differences and even tries to impose a homogeneity on others that is unjust and ungracious (check out Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 8 for more on recognizing and respecting differences).
At the same time, though, if we rely on labeling and categorizing people, we get drawn into the stereotypes and into many of the cultural narratives surrounding those labels (like Muslims vs. Christians in the scenario above). One thing that we can do is recognize that, when we set aside those labels, we are all people together. And there is enough commonality in humans that, even with different religious, cultural, and ethnic contexts, when we are just humans together, it makes for a world that is a lot more peaceful and a lot easier to live in. God loves the whole world, no matter what labels we put on it. And, as the People of God, we are called to do the same.

Bloody TASER® darts, medical waste and intravenous and hypodermic needles are all sources for life threatening bloodborne pathogens. The D.A.R.T. Pro® and X-TRACTOR Tip® System eliminates direct handling of contaminated stun-gun darts and exposure to these pathogens. Does your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) include the D.A.R.T. Pro® and X-TRACTOR Tip® System?
It should be assumed that everyone's blood and tissue is contaminated until proven otherwise. When a TASER® is deployed, the barbed darts penetrate the skin of the subject. The darts are now contaminated with the subject's blood, potentially containing pathogens such as HIV, AIDS and various strains of Hepatitis.
Current methods for TASER® dart removal are dangerous and crude, requiring either direct handling of the contaminated darts or the use of pliers. The lack of appropriate dart containers has even led to the unsafe storage practice of using plastic baggies. Contaminated TASER® darts are as dangerous as dirty intravenous or hypodermic needles.
Individuals injured by contaminated TASER® darts have serious considerations to face. Testing procedures may last for months while on mandatory leave from work. If infected, the individual faces a grueling battery of medication and treatment. Depending on the pathogen contracted, drastic lifestyle change and possible loss of employment may occur.
OSHA mandates that, in the medical community and on the job, sharp and bloody items are handled safely and disposed of properly. These actions ensure the safety of those who work in these environments. The employer's responsibility is to ensure that their employees are not injured by contaminated materials by providing the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Employers, both public and private, bear the financial burden of the testing, treatment and possible replacement of the injured employee along with the added costs of hiring and training of new employees.
The D.A.R.T. Pro System kit protects everyone participating in the chain of evidence from personnel at the deployment scene, medical facility, evidence room, courtroom and finally those who dispose of these dangerous devices. The use of the D.A.R.T. Pro® System Kit and X-TRACTOR Tips® will eliminate the opportunity for a needle-stick type injury and bloodborne pathogen transmission to occur when used correctly. Employers can feel confident that the associated costs of testing, potential treatment, personnel replacement and retraining costs will also be eliminated.
D.A.R.T. Pro® System Kit only $279.99
The D.A.R.T. Pro® System wins EMS Top Pick!

Suit may have ended Franklin Co. meeting prayers
Wednesday, May 30, 2012
UNION, Mo. (AP) — It appears that a lawsuit against an eastern Missouri county board has ended the practice of a prayer before its meetings.
The Franklin County Commission met Tuesday and began with a moment of silence, but no prayer. Earlier this month the American Civil Liberties Union of Eastern Missouri sued to stop Presiding Commissioner John Griesheimer's practice of praying at the meetings.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch (http://bit.ly/JtJU70 ) reports that a resident had complained about the prayers, prompting the ACLU lawsuit.
Government bodies often begin meetings with an invocation, but by a religious leader, not government leaders themselves.

I found 2 small snails in my tank and im freaking out!
I was tying my Java Ferns to a small piece of rock and I noticed a small snail about 1/8" diameter on one of the leaves. I pulled him off and got rid of him. Now last night i saw another one crawling up my tank and i got rid of him also. I am almost positive they had to come from my live plants when i bought them. I DO NOT WANT SNAILS IN MY TANK!. Also, i want to make sure they are not harmful to my fish and that they will not take over my tank. I have only seen 2 and got rid of both. They are small and very dark brown. Is this something i need to worry about? I dont think its a problem now but i want to know if i need to act now or be proactive in any way
If you have plants, you will have snails.
Don't over feed and the population will stay under control.
They can't hurt fish either. I actually adore my snails, and since I'm very careful with how much I feed I only have small population that can survive. They help clean excess algae and decaying plants.
If you don't like them you can just toss them as you see them (or put them in jars on your windowsill....), as many of the 'anti-snail' chemicals can be fatal to fish/plants at worst, and questionable at best.

Snails are the aquarist's friends. Especially the small ones like Malaysian Livebearing or the bladder or pond snail you probably have. All of these can get into spaces no fish (or you) will, eating any and all organic matter, breaking it down faster so the bacteria can deal with it.
Here are photos of the ones mentioned, and another. Top left, 4 Malaysian LB, top right, pond/bladder snail, lower the ramshorn snail.
I've also heard of people using them to gauge if they're overfeeding (a bit of a late warning, but hey)...if you have a ton, you're feeding too much/not good enough tank maintenance.
They arw handy in measuring over feeding. plus MTS are handy as sand or soil aerators too. And algae eaters and they're cute. i love my snails, even the pests
Posted via Mobile Device
I added two kinds of snails, tiger and trumpets, and managed to get some pond snails on some plants. I had a fungus start on a piece of driftwood and they cleaned it up nice and spotless in short order. No over populations. I wouldn't be without them. I don't vacuum anymore and I am sure that the snails are playing a large part in me not having to as there is very little crap on the bottom ever now... I also have sand so I would see it. I couldn't do that with gravel.
sounds like i have nothing to worry about then. I looked at pond snails online and im 99% sure thats what they are, Only found 2. Havent seen any in a couple days but now i kinda wish i wouldnt have taken those 2 out lol. One was almost at the top of my tank where the lid is. If this happens again i'll just pick him up and drop him to the bottom.
They skim the surface for scum, leave them be up there too as all they do is cruise and eat.

Jury recommends death in Florida ninja slaying
Saturday, October 30, 2010
A former karate instructor should be put to death for leading a group of men dressed like ninjas to rob and kill a wealthy Florida couple while their nine special-needs children slept or cowered nearby, a jury recommended Friday.
The jurors voted 10-2 to recommend that Patrick Gonzalez Jr. be executed for the slayings of Byrd and Melanie Billings. Their nine adopted children, who are between the ages of 5 and 12, all have special needs including fetal alcohol syndrome and autism.
Some of the couple's relatives appeared happy, though others showed no emotion when the recommendation was announced. Gonzalez had no reaction.
"The justice system has worked," Ashley Markham, the couple's adult daughter, said in a statement she read to the media. Markham is now raising the couple's other children.
Under Florida law, the final sentence will be imposed by Judge Nickolas Geeker, who must give the recommendation "great weight." Geeker will hear from attorneys again at a Dec. 9 hearing, though it could take up to three months for him to issue a final decision.
John Jan Gontarek, Gonzalez's defense attorney, said he was disappointed but hoped Geeker would not follow the jury's recommendation.
Earlier in the day, State Attorney Bill Eddins told jurors that Gonzalez continued to torment Melanie Billings after shooting her husband in each leg and in the head.
"He let her stand there and watch him shoot her husband down like a dog," Eddins said. "That is obviously cruel and unusual punishment."
He suggested that Melanie Billings' last thoughts before she died must have been whether the men would turn their guns on the children. The children were not hurt.
The jury of 11 women and one man convicted Gonzalez of two counts of first-degree murder and one count of home-invasion robbery late Thursday after half a day of deliberations. The jurors began considering their sentencing recommendation on Friday.
Gonzalez appeared in court in handcuffs, watched by six uniformed and armed deputies.
He had been subdued throughout much of the trial but became agitated during closing statements. He twisted in his chair, pointed at his attorney with his cuffed hands and was animated while whispering to another attorney.

Type ass into any respectable adult search engine and what do you find? Usually you will get links involving either anal sex or larger-than-life posteriors. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but there are those who are looking for something different, plain pictures of nice rear ends that dont jiggle much and are exposed without a man in the way to block the sight. For them there is Tinyass.com, a website devoted to young models baring their backsides and giving rear views of pleasuring themselves.
The girls are recognizable form other websites. They are plucked, for the most part, from the standard coterie of Eastern European models that grace so many other websites. But here they do not run through fields, bathe in mountain streams, or seduce one another. Instead, they show what many other websites will neglect, their asses. Some are already nude, while others undress, yet they all will eventually end up bending over or crawling on all fours while making it seem like the most natural thing in the world for them to be doing.
The content is easy to access and comes either with pictures or videos, which are good quality. The photos are better since there is no hardcore action on the site: no lesbian, no anal sex, and only the occasional ass play with beads or a glass dildo. You dont gain much with the sound and movement the videos offer. This is not to say that they arent hot, but the pictures are enough.
Even though the material is fresh compared to what is on most websites dealing with the same body part, when compiled and viewed together, it can get a little stale. It is the same scheme for every model: walk in, sway, undress, sway some more, undress some more, walk on all fours, possibly finger from behind, or break in a dildo. It is a relief to be able to see such poses and such rear ends but without being used for anything other than a wiggle in front of your eyes, the routine does get a little old.
However, Tinyass.com does offer a $2.95 trial membership for two days. In those two days, you can get your fill of nice tight asses that have plenty of shape and form but are still firm to the imagined touch. If you find the material does not get old for you, then there are other payment options: 99 cents a day for a 30 days or 67 cents for 90, with access to over 50 other sites in that period. When taken as part of a package it is a good deal, a breath of fresh air when cycled through, but on return viewings it can get a little stale.
