Over the past year the agency has undertaken efforts to consider its foundations and to think strategically about the outcomes it will achieve over the next few years. This self-examination has resulted in the creation of two guiding documents: FEMA Publication 1 (Pub 1) and the 2011 – 2014 Strategic Plan. Pub 1 outlines the agency's principles and culture while describing its history, mission, purpose, and philosophy.

The tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan have resulted in extraordinary loss of life, injury, and property damage. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with those affected by the disaster. When international disasters occur, they often raise questions about how we would deal with a similar event here at home.Keeping nuclear facilities safe in the U.S. is a coordinated effort among the plant's operator, federal, state, local and tribal government agencies.

According to a recent statistic, as many as one in 20 people living in Australia suffer from fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is chronic musculoskeletal condition characterized by persistent pain, fatigue, and tenderness in isolated areas. Symptoms vary from person to person but almost always have direct effect on the patient's quality of life.
While fibromyalgia is the second most common musculoskeletal disorder after osteoarthritis, there unfortunately is no clear-cut treatment plan, as the disorder varies from person to person and there is no cure. Many patients find themselves on large combinations of medication to help combat symptoms but often find themselves suffering unwanted side effects.
These medicinal treatment options often come with a large amount of unwanted side effects, ranging from minor symptoms such as dry mouth to much more dangerous symptoms, like suicidal thoughts. Common side effects include nausea, dizziness, fatigue, hypertension, difficulty concentration, and are often subject to dangerous interactions with other drugs.
Cupping therapy is an age-old technique used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including pain associated with fibromyalgia. This therapy technique includes heated glass cups which are then applied to parts of the body. The heat created a vacuum which in return, releases toxins and clears any blockages while also activating the lymphatic system. Bellabaci Cupping therapy allows patients to get the relief they need naturally while posing zero to little risks or side effects compared to more traditional medicinal treatments.
There have been studies performed which prove that the natural treatment of cupping therapy is just as, if not more, effective compared to more traditional treatments. The most recent study regarding the effect of cupping therapy on fibromyalgia patients was performed in 2011, according to Mayo Clinic. The study was performed in Beijing with 30 consecutive patients suffering from symptoms of fibromyalgia, including generalized chronic pain. The patients received a traditional cupping treatment every day for 15 days and the intensity of their symptoms prior to starting treatment and 5, 10, 15 days, and 2 weeks following the final treatment. Findings concluded that medicinal cupping therapy did in fact relieve
symptoms associated with fibromyalgia.
Bellabaci Cupping Therapy, a new and innovative treatment based on traditional Chinese cupping therapy, has been proven to be an effective and natural treatment option in treating fibromyalgia symptoms according to studies, but without the unwanted side effects that often come with traditional treatment methods. Natural treatment for diseases such as fibromyalgia is becoming more and more popular among patients as the benefits become clearer.
If you're suffering from fibromyalgia and are looking for a natural alternative to relieve pain without the side effects of traditional medications, Bellabaci Cupping Therapy might be the ideal option for you.

AFTER THE ATTACKS: RELATIONS; Parents Fear Their Children Will Be the Targets of Bigotry
By ANEMONA HARTOCOLLIS and CHARLIE LeDUFF
Published: September 15, 2001
Salmah was walking down the hall at John Adams High School in Queens Wednesday, about 24 hours after the attack on the World Trade Center, when she felt a pen pressed into her head and a pencil hurled at her back.
A voice behind her said, ''There are terrorists in our school,'' Salmah, a 17-year-old senior, recounted yesterday.
As the frightened girl sought refuge in a classroom, one teacher asked if Salmah would take off her Muslim head scarf, for her own safety. She refused. The guidance counselor sent her home and advised her to stay away from school until Monday, she said.
''I was born here; I'm a born American,'' Salmah, a Muslim of Guyanese descent, said yesterday, still too scared to give her last name. ''I wanted to go into the city to try to help people at the World Trade Center. But from this, I was kind of set back. I never expected this to happen at school.''
Board of Education officials said they did not think such incidents were common in city schools. Schools Chancellor Harold O. Levy said he planned to visit John Adams on Monday to talk to students about discrimination.
Still, many parents of Muslim, Sikh and South Asian background said yesterday that they had kept their children home from school this week, out of fear that they would become targets of bigotry. Many private Muslim schools were temporarily closed.
Reem Hussein, a kindergarten teacher at a Muslim school in Westbury, N.Y., said children were being told not to leave the house alone and to cover their religious emblems. ''I have learned to take the back roads,'' she said. ''Many of our women teachers are afraid to come out of their houses to teach evening classes.''
Similar concerns were on the minds of some Muslims in New Jersey. Ismael Khalil, principal of the Jersey City Al-Ghazaly School, said several parents have called saying that they would be taking their children out of the school, because it was too easily identifiable as a Muslim school.
''Parents called and said, 'I don't think my child will be safe here,' '' Mr. Khalil said.
While Americans generally talked about how Tuesday's terrorist attacks had altered their feeling of security forever, those of Muslim and South Asian descent said they feared that this would be the beginning of a long period of discrimination in schools, jobs and housing.
Hari Singh Moonga, a physics and chemistry teacher at the private Trevor Day School in Manhattan, said his green turban and big beard had made him such a constant target of hostility that he had decided to return to his native England for three weeks.
''To my colleagues and my students I am English, because of the way I talk, the way I am,'' he said.
But to a clerk at Starbucks who was rude, to people who have yelled at him on the subway, and to pedestrians who have stared menacingly at him, he looks like an Arab, and they treat him like an enemy. In fact, he is a Sikh -- a member of a Hindu religious sect -- and of Indian descent.
Out of fear of being attacked, he has been commuting by taxi from his home in Queens to his school in Manhattan.
''I am a prisoner in my home,'' he said.

BRAC rehearsal proves valuable tool for planners
June 11, 2009
Story Highlights
- Army Chief of Staff participates in APG BRAC ROC drill
"It's about more than BRAC [base realignment and closure]," summarized Col. Andrew B. Nelson, Aberdeen Proving Ground's deputy garrison commander for Transformation, after more than 200 Army leaders and planners spent May 29 reviewing the details of transferring thousands of people and jobs into and out of the installation as part of its transformation.
The event, the Rehearsal of Concept, or ROC, synchronization drill, was held in order to spot potential challenges and develop solutions so that the installation's transformation could stay on target.
"There are many other Army transformation initiatives that are evident here at the proving ground - other tenants that already exist here are growing, their mission sets are increasing because of the overseas contingency operations," Nelson said. "The products and the services of our current tenants here are more in demand and their programs are being accelerated. So, we have to look, not only at what's happening with BRAC, we have to look full-encompassing on the entire transformation that happens at Aberdeen Proving Ground."
The rehearsal of concept was led by the U.S. Army Materiel Command and hosted by Maj. Gen. Paul S. Izzo, commander of APG and the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command. Participants included Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr., Army Chief of Staff; Lt. Gen. James H. Pillsbury, deputy commanding general of AMC; Lt. Gen. Robert Wilson, commanding general of the Installation Management Command and Lt. Gen. James D. Thurman, the Army staff's G-3/5/7.
Complementing the leaders was a beneficial process that helped them quickly identify and tackle problems, according to Nelson.
"The ROC drill has provided a forcing function to bring to the table the entire multitude of issues surrounding the transformation of Aberdeen Proving Ground, BRAC-related and non-BRAC-related," he said.
The change is already well underway with the Route 715 entrance gate complete, $700 million in construction contracts awarded and construction sites dotting the installation. In addition, more than 450 new employees from the BRAC process have already moved in with 900 more expected this year.
"And, that's allowing them to establish mission capability at the proving ground that will be their forward platform working here so systems can be operating, missions can be occurring and products developed, instead of waiting for that capability to be turned off at their losing installation," Nelson explained.
Pillsbury cited personnel issues as the leadership's number one concern.
"We tackled several heavy issues today-personnel and the hiring process, being one, IT [information technology] infrastructure being another, and the garrison staffing that has to now take on more than a ninety percent civilian population versus a sixty-seven percent civilian population."
APG's inbound organizations will grow and enhance the installation's capabilities to directly support the Warfighter through research, development and engineering as well as testing and evaluation by bringing in approximately 8,500 new jobs and swelling the installation's total workforce to about 20,000 in 2012. Overall, there will be a net gain of some 4,700 personnel.
The transformation is not just about shear numbers, however. As the U.S. Army Ordnance Center and Schools populated with young trainees departs, the post's transient Soldier population will decrease from a high of 3,000 in 2008 to a mere 17 in 2012, changing dramatically the complexion and needs of the post's population.
Therefore, establishing the resources and support for a changing mission and a new workforce will be priority.
"The human capital resource that's required to support this high technology mission that APG will have in 2012 is our greatest challenge - to have the right people here to do the work that needs to be accomplished," Nelson continued.
This BRAC recommendation is unique in that there's an emphasis on realigning rather than closing to create a more efficient approach to mission success.
As Nelson explained, "Previous BRAC recommendations have centered around identifying redundant installation capability, but this BRAC recommendation is looking at consolidating mission sets and like-mission sets to allow the full cycle of research, development, engineering, test and evaluation to fielding, all to happen here at a single installation."
After helping tackle those issues, Pillsbury said he's confident the APG workforce will create one of the nation's premier technology centers.
"The brain trust that's coming to Aberdeen on top of the brain trust that's already here is going to be world class," Pillsbury said. "I don't think there's anything that this workforce won't be able to accomplish in the future."
He added that the new life-cycle composition of the installation will yield positive outcomes for future.
"I will be very surprised that if by 2014, 2015, certainly 2016 and on out, that this doesn't become the center of excellence for all things IT, cyber research," he said.

ORLANDO, Fla., May 20, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Given Imaging Ltd, (Nasdaq:GIVN), a world leader in GI medical devices and pioneer of capsule endoscopy, today announced several studies confirming an expanded role for SmartPill in diagnosing gastrointestinal motility disorders. All data were presented at Digestive Disease Week ® (DDW) taking place May 18 - 21, 2013 at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, FL where Given Imaging is exhibiting at booth #1059 throughout the conference.
- Potential Role for Ileocecal Valve Dysfunction and Small Intestinal Dysmotility in Bacterial Overgrowth As Assessed by Wireless Motility Capsule, poster Mo2059, presented by Bani Chander Roland, M.D., Department of Internal Medicine, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and colleagues, assessed the relationship of ileocecal valve (ICV) pressures with lactulose breath test (LBT) results, characterized the relationship of prolonged small bowel transit time (SMTT) with LBT, and assessed the relationship of gastric/small bowel pH and pressures with LBT using SmartPill testing. Results show that low ICV pressures are significantly associated with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Furthermore, prolonged SBTT is also highly associated with SIBO. There is no association between delayed SBTT and low ICV pressure, suggesting that these mechanisms independently contribute to SIBO. These findings may help clarify SIBO pathogenesis and lead to more patient-specific treatment strategies.
- Use of Additional Wireless Motility Capsule (WMC) Parameters Improves Gastrointestinal Landmark Identification, poster Mo2104, presented by Sonia Yoon, M.D., GI Medicine, Massachusetts General Hospital, and colleagues, sought to identify gastric emptying (GET), and small bowel (ICJ) and colonic transit times by pH alone and to determine if utilization of SmartPill motility monitoring which include other parameters could increase the yield and precision in determining GI transit landmarks. The results of 168 patients showed that SmartPill analysis using the additional parameters such as frequency and amplitude, FFT analysis and temperature increases the yield for landmark identification compared to pH alone.
- Small Intestinal Transit Time Is Prolonged in Patients with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth, poster Mo2068, presented by Bani Chander Roland, M.D., Department of Internal Medicine, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and colleagues, analyzed the relationship of prolonged small bowel transit time (SBTT) in patients undergoing SmartPill motility monitoring with positive lactulose breath test (LBT) and to assess the relationship of prolonged gastric, colonic and whole gut transit times with positive LBT. The retrospective study looked at 72 consecutive patients who were referred for motility testing with 37 patients who underwent both SmartPill and LBT. Results showed that patients with underlying small intestinal bacterial overgrowth have significant delays in SBTT as compared to those without. The correlation between prolonged SBTT and positive LBT may be useful in identifying those patients with underlying SIBO and could suggest therapeutic options for those refractory to standard therapy.

Had the 12 week ultrasound....
Possibly number three!!
yay! Congrats!
Tiffany - Single Mommy to Wyatt, born 5/29/11 via c-section
They told you at 12 weeks?! No way! I haven't had an u/s yet but I would love if I had one that early and they tell me what it is! I want to have a 4D ultrasound at like 16 weeks to tell if not!
Congrats!! I'm happy for you!! I have a question, how do people find out so early on what they are having? I mean like you said there still has to be confirmation, but just outta curiosity how does one find out? I want to know and am wondering if they will be able to do the test on me or how it works. I go in on Nov. 9th for my 12 week appt. Is that when they can do it? Thank you very much!!!
Proud mommy to DS 10/10/2006!!
Found the love of my life 10/30/2009
Expecting a boy May 13th!!
That's exciting!!! My next appt. is at 13 weeks 2 days so maybe the dr. will be able to kinda see what sex is!!
Possibly number three!!
Congrats! I had mine today too and I begged the tech to guess. She said "GIRL!", but not to buy anything pink yet. She thought it was too early to really tell because she said that just because she couldn't see a penis didn't mean that one wouldn't be there eventually. Whatever that means. lol. I will go for a gender u/s in a few weeks.
Hooray for healthy babies!
Me: 29� DH: 32 DS:�10/09 EDD: 5/5/11
Mindy, mommy to 3 amazing girls! Alexia 6/27/06; Piper 8/3/09; Gabriella 5/12/11
i had one at 11 weeks and it looks like a boy and the dr said he wont confirm anything for me, but that mothers intuition is always best, so i think he was saying he thinks boy too, but he wont say it for sure yet i wanted a girl, but really feel like this one is a boy,
I had mine today and the tech wouldn't say a thing about the sex. I seawr I saw "something" but it was probably the cord. :-)

The KHSAA is recommending softball players at certain positions take further steps to protect themselves from injury.
Earlier this month the KHSAA Board of Control passed a proposal recommending the use of protective headgear for softball pitchers, first basemen and third basemen.
The proposal did not apply to baseball.
The Board made its recommendation after studying national injury data and after consulting the state's sports medicine advisory committee, per a KHSAA press release.

A friend in another department asked a few months ago how my semester was finishing out. I told him about my classes, which included a lit lecture with 240 students, a creative writing workshop, and an independent study, as well as two or three honors-project students. He said, "You taught more IUs [instructional units] than my entire department." I laughed, and he said: "No, really." (I also did readings and interviews and otherwise tried to promote my novel that semester as I was putting final edits on the brief nonfiction book.)

The publishing industry should give two individuals awards for doing as much as Oprah to promote books: Jon Stewart and Joshua Kim. Stewart not only talks about several serious books a week on The Daily Show, he even gives the impression he's read them. Joshua Kim reads so much he puts this librarian to shame, but I love the fact that he shares his enthusiasm for books and regularly asks what we're reading - and my to-be-read list keeps growing as a result.

During a recent cleaning spree, I came to a slightly upsetting conclusion about myself: I am a hoarder. I hoard three things: trial sized beauty products, plastic shopping bags, and lip balm. The trial sizes are in case I need to take a vacation, I am ready. The plastic bags are for walking my dog; I never want to need one and not have one when he needs to go. The lip balm… well, I like lip balm.

I usually have several different post ideas floating around in my brain at any given time. I try to select a topic that I think will generate a post that interests both me and my readers. I had planned on writing about something other than course catalogs again (I mean, it's not like they are that glamorous) and I apologize for writing about them so soon. However, there was one comment that got my attention. Greg, who I would assume has never read anything that I've ever written before, left a comment that I feel needs to be addressed.

The concept of equality or equivalency is central to mathematics, as even the most simple algebra requires a statement of equivalency in order to present a statement that is true and can be solved. Such equality can even be found in non-mathematical arenas, as when mention of one thing immediately brings to mind thoughts of another. For example, it is true that there are certain cities whose names have become almost equivalent to organizations they house. When a character in The Great Gatsby says that someone "went to New Haven", it is assumed that he went to Yale University.

Most web-based course catalogs that I have surfed through seem like they were designed using an original Commodore 64. As an academic advisor, I often have the "pleasure" of browsing course catalogs from schools all over the United States. I have yet to find a course catalog that has an intuitive interface. My experience as an advisor should theoretically provide me with some advantage when I'm perusing a school's course catalog as I search for course information. However, I can say without any hesitation that most online course catalogs need to be rebuilt and redesigned.

He's been busy with school obligations, starting rock bands with his friends, and trying to pass a full schedule of Honors and AP coursework. Nick seems happy. He works as a lifeguard and plays in his school's marching band. But for some reason, he refuses to do much homework and his grades have dropped.

The dd command is one of the original Unix utilities and should be in everyone's tool box. It can strip headers, extract parts of binary files and write into the middle of floppy disks; it is used by the Linux kernel Makefiles to make boot images. It can be used to copy and convert magnetic tape formats, convert between ASCII and EBCDIC, swap bytes, and force to upper and lowercase.
For blocked I/O, the dd command has no competition in the standard tool set. One could write a custom utility to do specific I/O or formatting but, as dd is already available almost everywhere, it makes sense to use it.
Like most well-behaved commands, dd reads from its standard input and writes to its standard output, unless a command line specification has been given. This allows dd to be used in pipes, and remotely with the rsh remote shell command.
Unlike most commands, dd uses a keyword=value format for its parameters. This was reputedly modeled after IBM System/360 JCL, which had an elaborate DD "Dataset Definition" specification for I/O devices. A complete listing of all keywords is available from GNU dd with
dd --help
Some people believe dd means "Destroy Disk" or "Delete Data" because if it is misused, a partition or output file can be trashed very quickly. Since dd is the tool used to write disk headers, boot records, and similar system data areas, misuse of dd has probably trashed many hard disks and file systems.
In essence, dd copies and optionally converts data. It uses an input buffer, conversion buffer if conversion is specified, and an output buffer. Reads are issued to the input file or device for the size of the input buffer, optional conversions are applied, and writes are issued for the size of the output buffer. This allows I/O requests to be tailored to the requirements of a task. Output to standard error reports the number of full and short blocks read and written.
A typical task for dd is copying a floppy disk. As the common geometry of a 3.5" floppy is 18 sectors per track, two heads and 80 cylinders, an optimized dd command to read a floppy is:
Example 1a: Copying from a 3.5" floppy:dd bs=2x80x18b if=/dev/fd0 of=/tmp/floppy.image1+0 records in1+0 records out
The 18b specifies 18 sectors of 512 bytes, the 2x multiplies the sector size by the number of heads, and the 80x is for the cylinders—a total of 1474560 bytes. This issues a single 1474560-byte read request to /dev/fd0 and a single 1474560 write request to /tmp/floppy.image, whereas a corresponding cp command:
cp /dev/fd0 /tmp/floppy.image
issues 360 reads and writes of 4096 bytes. While this may seem insignificant on a 1.44MB file, when larger amounts of data are involved, reducing the number of system calls and improving performance can be significant.
This example also shows the factor capability in the GNU dd number specification. This has been around since before the Programmers Work Bench and, while not documented in the GNU dd man page, is present in the source and works just fine, thank you.
To finish copying a floppy, the original needs to be ejected, a new diskette inserted, and another dd command issued to write to the diskette:
Example 1b: Copying to a 3.5" floppydd bs=2x80x18b < /tmp/floppy.image > /dev/fd01+0 records in1+0 records out
Here is shown the stdin/stdout usage, in which respect dd is like most other utilities.
The original need for dd came with the 1/2" tapes used to exchange data with other systems and boot and install Unix on the PDP/11. Those days are gone, but the 9-track format lives. To access the venerable 9-track, 1/2" tape, dd is superior. With modern SCSI tape devices, blocking and unblocking are no longer a necessity, as the hardware reads and writes 512-byte data blocks.
However, the 9-track 1/2" tape format allows for variable length blocking and can be impossible to read with the cp command. The dd command allows for the exact specification of input and output block sizes, and can even read variable length block sizes, by specifying an input buffer size larger than any of the blocks on the tape. Short blocks are read, and dd happily copies those to the output file without complaint, simply reporting on the number of complete and short blocks encountered.
Then there are the EBCDIC datasets transferred from such systems as MVS, which are almost always 80-character blank-padded Hollerith Card Images! No problem for dd, which will convert these to newline-terminated variable record length ASCII. Making the format is just as easy and dd again is the right tool for the job.
Example 2: Converting EBCDIC 80-character fixed-length record to ASCII variable-length newline-terminated recorddd bs=10240 cbs=80 conv=ascii,unblock if=/dev/st0 of=ascii.out40+0 records in38+1 records out
The fixed record length is specified by the cbs=80 parameter, and the input and output block sizes are set with bs=10240. The EBCDIC-to-ASCII conversion and fixed-to-variable record length conversion are enabled with the conv=ascii,noblock parameter.
Notice the output record count is smaller than the input record count. This is due to the padding spaces eliminated from the output file and replaced with newline characters.
About dd command
dd is a common unix progarmme used for copying and conversation of raw data. It is an application used for convert and copy a file according to the referred manual page. DD stands for data description.

In modern computer systems, privacy and security are mandatory. However, connections from the outside over public networks automatically imply risks. One easily available solution to avoid eavesdroppers' attempts is SSH. But, its wide adoption during the past 21 years has made it a target for attackers, so hardening your system properly is a must.
Additionally, in highly regulated markets, you must comply with specific operational requirements, proving that you conform to standards and even that you have included new mandatory authentication methods, such as two-factor authentication. In this ebook, I discuss SSH and how to configure and manage it to guarantee that your network is safe, your data is secure and that you comply with relevant regulations.Get the Guide

Actor Vivek Oberoi is overwhelmed with the response fetched in by "Krrish 3" and his character of Kaal in the sci-fi superhero film.
Vivek plays super villain Kaal opposite to Hrithik's character of superhero Krrish in the film that has crossed over Rs.100 crore mark within four days of its release.
"I am over the moon now. I am so happy," Vivek told reporters Monday at Chandan theatre here. He was accompanied by Hrithik.
Director-producer Rakesh Roshan's "Krrish 3" is the third instalment of the franchise that began in 2003 with "Koi... Mil Gaya".
Also featuring Kangana Ranaut and Priyanka Chopra, "Krrish 3" came out Nov 1.
Vivek said there are three superheroes in the film.
"There are three superheroes in 'Krrish 3' - one is India's favourite superhero Hrithik Roshan."
"Second and the biggest superhero is his dad (Rakesh Roshan) who nurtured such a big dream... we as Indians have this - 'they are Americans, they can do and Indians can't (make successful sci-fi)'. But he (Rakesh Roshan) has proved to the whole world that Indians can do what the Americans can do. I think it is a great thing that he has done for India, for our pride," said Vivek.
"And the third superhero is our audiences," he added.

I've been trying to figure the odds of nobody winning tonight's Mega Millions. It is on the order of 5%. I read that about 500 million tickets will be sold this time. This is a guesstimate. It was confirmed that 400 million were sold in the last 48 hours. That would indicate that at least 500 million tickets will be sold, and most likely more.
The odds of winning with one ticket are: 175,711,536
The odds of not winning are 175,711,535/175,711,536
The odds of 500,000,000 people not winning is (175,711,536/175,711,536)^500,000,000 which, according to my windows calculator, is 0.058 or a little better than 5%. So figure about 94.2% chance of at least one person winning. This is almost certainly.
I would suggest that you not put off buying a ticket. The jackpot will not reach this high very soon.

Bassist and Maiden founder Steve Harris (left) - an East End lad, born and bred - was a highly-regarded member of the West Ham youth team in the mid '70s. Many reckon that, had the group not gone on to redefine the face of British heavy metal, Harris might have become a professional. A case of sport's loss turning into music's shame.

Something amazing is brewing!
Untold magical power is yours in this Classic Witch Adult Plus Costume. With its long, flowing, layered skirt and its shapely button-down blouse, this costume has an almost Victorian charm. Its tall pointed hat, with a rakish upturn to the brim, lends the outfit a touch of whimsy, and a long, flowing, translucent scarf will trail after you as you walk, giving you just a hint of mystery. With just a little makeup, you'll be able to decide if you're a hideous old hag or an enchanting witch queen.
- Includes: This four piece costume includes one shirt, one skirt, one cape, and one matching hat with attached scarf.
- Does Not Include: Broom, shoes, or socks.
You'll be able to bewitch anyone you like -- or even turn unsuspecting men into frogs, if you'd prefer -- when you wear this outfit out on the town, to a Halloween party, or just to a themed ball. Couple it with a pair of dastardly pointed shoes or a broom to fly on (not included). Some stripey tights would go well with the skirt, and never underestimate the importance of a quality cauldron to brew mischief in, or to store newts and salamanders in.

Poor Andre Tchmil was so jazzed about his All-Russki team too.
To his credit, he took himself out of the race following the test results. I also read that his team contract specifies that he would be automatically fired and have to pay a fine that equals 5 times his yearly salary, if his B sample also tests positive.

Crazy Stupid Love Review
"It's Crazy, Unabashedly Stupid, And It's Love"
December 1st, 2012
Well, it's certainly not your average romantic comedy. Like other films of similar genre, though, it was still clichéd. I wouldn't find this among the Hollywood cheese, but I wouldn't find it as a classic. It still had that small spark that let it down, which I appreciate because it wasn't major, and it didn't try too hard to be funny. In fact, this film was pretty relaxed and like people say, the unabashed humour just made it a feel-good as well as a romantic comedy.
I loved the actors who played their characters, I like Steve Carell for his dry humour, Ryan Gosling was supposed to be the lady-killer who was actually quite funny, but I wasn't as attracted to him as much as the rest of the characters. As well as Emma Stone, I really enjoyed Kevin Bacon's little role - I mean, who can get more awesome than him, especially with just such an awesome name?
I was right, this is a great ensemble of characters, it was extremely funny, and because of the shameless (quite) realistic portrayal of how love works, this wasn't your usual romantic comedy from Hollywood. It was crazy, unashamedly stupid, and it was certainly love.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Thank you! And thanks for the feature
It's so life like. It's a wonderful use of clay and paint. great job!
Wow, this is beautiful. How big is this?
Great work.
Awww! I love this! I really admire anyone who can work with Sculpey, and you definitely have some skill here. Love the anatomy on this. What I love most are the colors you have chosen, and how softly detailed the painting is. Those little spots all over and the pattern in the shell.. excellent!
Wow, thank you so much for the kind comment! It's the best when other artists appreciate those little things
Very gorgeous! The shell is amazing, it's an issue I usually have with turtles and the coloration is great!!!
Thanks! In person the blues are slightly more green, but I like how the camera interprets the color just as much.
aw turtle
Wow, this is beautiful What a cute guy, I love the blue colour!
Thank you! He's slightly more green in real life, but the camera only picked up the blues. I think I like it this way too
This is beautiful!!!
The painting on this is very awesome looking, I absolutely love it.
That's really sweet, the paint job is wonderful
Very nice!
It's adorable. Great job on the painting!

The Veterans Today-led psy-op campaign against Israeli PM Netanyahu is starting to draw blood. One sign: The total meltdown of Israel flack Kenneth Katzman on Press TV the other day.
Yes, I've been launching some truth-rockets at Israel from my secret compound in the woods of western Wisconsin. (Each one of those red-white-and-blue truth rockets has "remember 9/11" scrawled on it.)
I hear they're building an iron dome around the skull of the next Israel flack who'll go up against me on Press TV.
But what really has the Yahus worried isn't me – it's VT's success at penetrating Mossad. As VT editor Gordon Duff said on my radio show, "our man in Mossad," who loathes the Yahus as much as we do, fed Bibi that ridiculous Wile E. Coyote bomb that made the Israeli leader the laughingstock of the world. (Gordon will be on my radio show 4 to 5 pm Central today on AmericanFreedomRadio.com ).
And now, that same VT mole has scored an even bigger coup: He slipped some truth serum into Netanyahu's coffee.

Two Savannah Christian student-athletes signed athletic scholarships this week to play their sports at the collegiate level.
Ryan Cowart, a pitcher on the Red Raiders' baseball team, signed with Georgia College & State University at Milledgeville. The Bobcats compete in Division II's Peach Belt Conference.
After sitting out the opening weeks of the season with an ankle sprain, Cowart has a .361 batting average and is 4-0 on the mound with a 1.81 ERA. Last year he went 8-2 with a 1.41 ERA, the third-lowest in school history.
Elizabeth Roberds, an offensive force for the Red Raiders' volleyball team, will attend Converse College in Spartanburg, S.C., next season. She played middle blocker this past season, earning 240 kills and 155 digs.
Converse, which competes at the Division II level, recently agreed to become an affiliate member of the Carolinas-Virginia Athletics Conference (CVAC) in 2005-2006.
South Effingham's Jenny Gomez also recently signed a tennis scholarship to attend Gardner-Webb University, a Division I school in Boiling Springs, N.C.
Gomez competes year-round in the sport through the U.S. Tennis Association.
Also headed to Gardner-Webb, a member of the Atlantic Sun Conference, is Wayne County soccer player Jarrett Jackson, who has 25 goals and 14 assists this season. A four-year member of Georgia's Olympic Development Team, Jackson's club team is the Atlanta Concorde Fire.
South Effingham's Reddick to sign with Middle Georgia
South Effingham senior baseball player Josh Reddick will sign a letter of intent at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday with Middle Georgia (Junior) College. The signing will be held inside the school's media center. Reddick, an outfielder/pitcher, is hitting a team-high .515 for the Mustangs.

JCB digs in for Groves' new track and field
The beginning phases of work to build a new track at Groves High started last Tuesday.
JCB Inc., which is donating the initial $250,000 of demolition work, tore up part of the ragged track following a "farewell lap" taken by the girls and boys on the school's track teams.
As part of the ceremony, school officials took a piece of the track unearthed by JCB crews.
Coaches said they plan to frame it for the school's trophy case as a way to honor participating groups and businesses JCB, Weyerhaeuser, the Excellence Fund and others supporting the $500,000 initiative dubbed "Fast Track."
Donations are still being solicited for the project, which students and administrators hope will be completed before next spring.
Savannah Christian subregion playoffs start Saturday
Savannah Christian (13-6) will begin the Region 3-AA baseball playoffs Saturday against Dodge County. The best-of-3 series will start with a 1 p.m. doubleheader at Groves. A third game, if necessary, will be played at 4 p.m. Monday at Dodge County.

A short list of celebrity presidential endorsements
To compile a list of celebrity presidential endorsements, you first have to relax your meaning of celebrity.
President Barack Obama supporter George Clooney and Mitt Romney supporter Clint Eastwood, of course, fit the definition like a tuxedo at the Oscars. And let's add Steven Spielberg - his film company DreamWorks donated more than $4 million to an Obama SuperPAC - to the list.

According to an Economic Times report, Bharti Airtel has asked for government approval to test out voice services on its 4G networks.
Airtel currently provides 4G data services in Kolkata, Pune and Bangalore. The report adds that currently, Reliance Industries-owned Infotel Broadband, the only company that has pan-India 4G airwaves, is set to get the telecom department's (DoT's) approval for testing voice services on this technology platform.
If Airtel get approval to test out voice calls on 4G, then this would allow users to combine high speed Internet access with calls as well.
4G is a serious business for most telecom companies in India. It was recently reported that Reliance Industries has plans to invest $10 billion on 4G network of its subsidiary Infotel Broadband (IBSL).
Currently, IBSL is the only company in the country that has 20 Mhz of pan-India airwaves that it can use for providing 4G services.
In October, IBSL had informed the Telecom Ministry that it is ready for trial runs of a technology that would enable voice calls service on its wireless broadband network and has sought allocation of number series to test its newly developed voice over LTE (VoLTE) technology.

Freddy Icart, by taking these shots of ephemeral reality, of time given and immediately taken away shows us how to take a closer look at the inherent beauty of people and things.
We are very grateful to him for his quest for exceptional photohraphs, a source of inspiration and the deep reflection customary to the celtic soul.

The game might be named after him, but there was no way I was going to let Mario win this race. After all, this is apparently still the year of Luigi.
That sort of competitive thinking generally goes through my mind whenever I play Mario Kart on a couch, but when you're sitting in a real Kart with real speed boosts and obstacles, it's only amplified.
To cross-promote Mario Kart 8 and a new Platinum line of natural gas-based motor oils, Nintendo and Penzoil partnered up to turn Mario Kart into a real-world racer at South by Southwest this year. And while it was a bit different than what you see onscreen -- safety precautions sadly nixed any hope of actually shooting a turtle shell at opponents or zapping them with lightning -- it was closer than you might think.
Races were run in heats of four, with players standing in for Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Bowser. Competitors, over the course of four laps, tried to outrun each other by using power-ups scattered around the track.
Rather than comically large boxes littering the road, power-ups were simply decals laid on the track. RFID chips built into the side of the vehicles registered when you'd successfully driven over one. Karts would see a sudden speed boost or your opponents might find theirs slowing down as they were 'hit' by a shell or other advantage you've claimed.
The Karts were mounted with GoPro cameras, letting people waiting in the substantial lines watch the races -- and letting drivers keep a visual keepsake of their time on the track.
I was paired against three of the good folks from Engadget: Joseph Volpe, Terrence O'Brien and Sarah Silbert (who graciously agreed to race as Peach to spare the rest of us our dignity).
Joseph was Mario -- and, since the game is named after the character, was granted pole position. As Luigi, family rights got me the number two spot.
When the green flag dropped, we all mashed the accelerators to the floor and started to putter along (any hope of an explosive burst of speed were dashed by the attorneys.) The Karts moved at a medium speed setting, which was about the pace of a bike ride.
Initially, those speed restrictions meant we all stayed in formation…until we discovered the power-ups. Once we figured out which sped up our karts, the real race was on.
Mario kept the lead for the first lap and a half, but then I got lucky. After running over a series of power-ups I earned a big speed boost, catapulting me ahead. From there, I made it a point to run over every advantage to keep my opponents at bay. There was no way I was giving up that lead.
Bowser made it a tight race, but in the end Luigi prevailed. And, since we all managed to avoid hitting the Kart walls and each other – there weren't any penalty points to worry about.
About the only power-up missing from the track was the banana peel. Organizers said they had planned to include that by making the kart's steering loosen up when triggered, but again safety concerns made them abandon the idea.
Was it an experience that lived up to the game? Not really. But Nintendo and Penzoil did a great job given the restrictions they faced, and hopefully it's something the two companies will consider expanding.
Mario, Peach and Bowser deserve a rematch, after all.

Amaury William Inigo
Amaury Felix Fyodor
Archibald Hugo Theodosius

Archibald Henry Alexander
As lovely as Mithandir sounds, its LOTRness makes it a true GP imo.
And Illyrio... I haven't seen Game of Thrones, so I don't have the association. Just sounds like a masculinized Illyria to me. There's Ilario, which is an Italian form of the Ancient Roman Hilarius. Might be slightly more useable because it's got some history.
Amaury Malik Ilario
Anna Ingrid Alexandra is very royal! It's sad to bury beautiful Ingrid in the middle, though I admit the flow is fantastic. Would you consider doing a compound name, "Anna Ingrid"?
Matilda Olga Marina has too many A-endings for my ear. The star of this combination is Olga, imo. Such a beautiful, stern, deep name.
Visenya would be great with Olga, but I wish it had history beyond The Game of Thrones. Drat! What a cool slinky sound.
Instead of Visenya:
Olga Verusha Myrrine
Olga Victoria Maris
Olga Ksenia Maren
Olga Marina Bjørk
Olga Marina Mathilde ("mah-TEELD")
Olga Marina Maude
And Dagmar. I'm mad mad mad about Dagmar. I was seriously thinking I'd name a daughter Dagmar, but decided it was too random for an American kid. Please use it.
Dagmar Xenia Alexandra (Double X! Vulgar? Perhaps, but I like it.)
Dagmar Embla Vilhelmine
Dagmar Matilda Pipaluk
Dagmar Ingrid Maude
Oh your names make me so happy!

Where's the ethical balance of America's scales of justice?
Is it really "fair and balanced"? I don't mean the ridiculous Fox TV channel, whose right-wing ranters mock their own PR slogan – but, rather, a network that actually matters in our society: America's legal system.
To check the balance of the scales of justice, look at how the system treats the very rich… and the poor. As we've seen, Wall Street barons have grossly fattened themselves by running frauds and scams that wreaked trillions of dollars in damages to working families, homeowners, and taxpayers – yet not a single one of them has been indicted or even seriously pursued by the law. More recently, such corporate profiteers as GlaxoSmithKline have paid billions of dollars in fines for serious criminal acts, but the executive crimals who pulled these capers have skated free without ever being charged.
Now, meet Gina Ray, who is neither a CEO nor a serious offender, but a hard-hit, low-income American. She's one of hundreds who're being jailed, not by the police, but by a growing network of corporate fee-chasers empowered by state legislatures to fine and imprison poor people who've committed minor infractions. Ms. Ray, an unemployed 31-year-old in Rural Alabama, got caught-up in this privatized probation system over a speeding ticket. Her problem mushroomed, and she was unable to pay, so the corporatized legal system locked her up and hit her with company fees for each of the 40 days she was behind bars. Her original $179 ticket has now surpassed $3,000. She was not told that she has a right to a court-appointed lawyer or offered any alternatives to more fines and jail. "We hear a lot of 'I can't pay the fee,'" says one of the private prosecutors, adding chillingly that, "It is not our job to figure that out,"

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Casual-dining restaurant chain Ruby Tuesday (RT) issued a press release last week meant to show investors that the company is taking steps to turn itself around, but what it told me is that the road to recovery may be a long one.Coming on the heels of worse-than-expected results for its fiscal first quarter and then the sudden resignations of the company's chairman and a key vice president, plus a downgrade of its debt by Moody's deeper into junk territory, the press release gave more details about the cost-cutting initiatives Ruby Tuesday is undertaking in attempts to right its ship.
Good-Bye Ruby Tuesday?
