Since there's no official organization or spokesperson, there's no way to ask them. But according to a story in the Times this morning, the whole building green debate has been reignited as a result of the arsons last month that made smoldering rubble out of the Street of Dreams.
In case you've forgotten, someone - probably the Earth Liberation Front - torched some of the houses and left a hand-painted sign blasting the "McMansions" for their supposedly environmentally friendly construction. Regardless of whether the buildings were actually "green," or just allowed their owners to feel good about themselves, it must be pointed out that in this instance, the act has called attention to the ELF's rallying cry - probably the whole point in the first place. Not that the media should stick its head in the sand on these matters, but it's unfortunate that, in this instance, media speculation probably gave the arsonists what they wanted.
Hmm, food (probably vegan) for thought.

ROCKS OFF Concert Cruise Series, New York, NY
21 years and over
Hey Kiddies, Ghoul School is back in session and that means only one thing...ZOMBIE PROM! Calling All Geeks, Creeps & Zombie Freaks! We welcome all...singles, couples, threesomes or even moresomes...Get ready to dance your freakin' faces off at our 1st Annual Rocks Off Fall Formal On The East River with everybody's favorite Undead 80s Zombie Prom Band... The Engagements. It will be a debaucherous night of drinking, dancing, and withering flesh falling off the bones of infected revelers. We will have a costume contest with cash prizes with a Zombie Prom King and Queen awarded, a delicious spiked punch (blood red and guaranteed to put an extra hump in your bump!) and our own ship photographer will be on board to snap your freaky faces. Originally created to play at a picky (musician) friend's wedding, the band has since entertained for weddings and parties of every size and ilk. Along the way, the group has built a reputation as a unique, "anti-wedding-band" wedding band. Comprised of a group of professional musician friends, our band members have toured in the bands of some recognizable acts - from Michael McDonald and Michael Buble, to Sharon Jones and French Kicks. We're an actual BAND, we love playing together, and we're constantly tweaking our set list to keep it fresh. Check out our videos - we cover songs by Human League, Eurythmics, Al Green, Michael Jackson, Hall N Oates, Tears For Fears and more...

2004 Stanley Cup Champions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well finally Andrechuck gets his cup. Good for him...
And man that second goal for tampa...unreal goal. Great series...
Oh and wanna hear the funny part. Tampa bay has more canadian players than calgary...sooo
Congrats to the Bolts! Shame on you Kerry Fraizer. That last call on Pratt was real crap.
Always try your most moderate.
What are you doing online...go drink. Your team just got the cupOriginally Posted by Raiyn
I gotta say that this was the best series Ive ever seen. No garbage hockey. That second goal was amazing. Stickhandles like mad. Theres always next year.
00' Cannondale R1000
01' Devinci Chilipepper
When sh*t hits the fan, everything I'm not, made me everything I am.
Thats ****ing bull****. Kerry Frazer screwed the flames with that last call, and of everything he could've called, he called a charge. It just isnt right when a team from Florida beats a canadian team in hockey for the Cup
There are more canadians on TB than Calgary ...Originally Posted by PeterG1185
Still I hate refs in hockey but you gotta give credit to TB. Amazing puck handling, superior defence and better offence (I HATE dump and run hockey that calgary was playing) It was a bad call but thats hockey...unfortunately...
Definately the best series in many many many years. I might give hockey a shot again next year, if it prove to stay good I might have to become a fan again.
What and that cut on St. Louis was my imagination? Frasier could (should) have given Iginla a game misconduct penalty for the temper tantrum he threw and in actuality the call should have been FOUR minutes for the blood being drawn.Originally Posted by PeterG1185
It's an obvious sign of the apocalypse, a team from Florida winning the Stanely Cup.

With his even game winners in the post-season he's still one of the first (he and St.Louis especially) to spread the credit to his team.
Uhh, this sucks, Flames got so close. But congrats to Tampa and especially to Andreychuck. They played a great series and controlled the 7th game for nearly 50 minutes. They earned it. And there will always be next season...
To err is human. To moo is bovine.

The Lightning winning the Stanley Cup has been more fun then the Bucs winning the superbowl.
They should of made today a holiday in Tampa. We are all so tired and a little hung over that it is going to be a long work day.. Might have to get the 24 hour flu tomorrow to see the parade..
The only reason blood was drawn was b/c when St. Louis fell who ever's stick it was came down with him in a controlled manner and tapped him. Definately not a call you make in the last 5 mins of game 7 in a 2-1 game. Raiyn i've been playing hockey for 12 years, i know this game, and i know that wasn't a high stick and the fact the blood was drawn was more because of the fall than the hitOriginally Posted by Raiyn
During the winter I think there are more Canadians in Ft. Lauderdale / Miami than there are locals. Half of my mens hockey team are Canadians - eh!Originally Posted by Maelstrom

Yeah Bolts!

Elias Says ...
A daily glance inside the numbers from the world of sports.
Updated: July 8, 2006, 1:25 AM ETBy Elias Sports Bureau, Inc. | Special to ESPN Insider
A daily glance inside the numbers from the world of sports:
• John Lackey allowed a double to Mark Kotsay, the first batter he faced Friday, and then retired the next 27 Athletics batters in the Angels' 3-0 win. The last pitcher to retire 27 in a row after allowing the first batter to reach base was Jerry Reuss, who did it for the Dodgers against the Reds on June 11, 1982. Eddie Milner led off the game with a double, and he was the last batter to reach base ...

Many "user groups" have been having their way with Kincaid. The developement has moved at a very fast pace in Kincaid. World Class Biathalon Range — large section of trees gone. Soccer fields — very large section of land, more moose habitat gone. Disc Golf Course — WOW more trees gone. Now we have the single-track advocates (moutain bikers) going in with a backhoe to start building single-track trails that are expertly designed to go in between the double-wide ski trails. Then groups of volunteers come in to smooth out the trail for biking. Now we have bikers flying down single-track trails around many blind corners. It is crazy and out of control!
Bikers are having so much fun on the trails they are not thinking of the consequences. Two moose have been shot because of bad decisions.
Lets make a good decision and put a moratorium on development in Kincaid now. That might save Kincaid.

Ramon had told me about this karate instructor of his with a huge rack. So we go down to the gym to check it out. Cali sure did have a huge set of natural round tits that kept falling out of her karate uniform as her and Ramon were tumbling around the mat. She left to go shower afterwards. That is when Ramon decided to follow her into the bathroom to sneak a peak. He was found out and instead of being kicked out, was asked to join. Great shower sex action. Titty fucking and sucking along with some dick sucking and everyone was having a good time. The one on one continued on the mat as we saw Cali and her big ass tits jump up and down as she moaned in ecstacy. Great shoot. Enjoy.

If your mother was always goading you to chew your food, it turns out she knew what was best for you. A team of nutrition researchers from Purdue University presented the results of their recently completed study on the relationship between chewing food and nutrient absorption at Chicago's 2013 Institute of Food Technologists Annual Meeting and Food Expo, and according to these experts, chewing food more thoroughly can help the body retain more nutrients and in turn, help individuals retain energy levels from the foods they consume.
Study participants were asked to chew almonds, 10, 25, or 40 times before swallowing. After the almonds were consumed, researchers measured almond nutrient levels within each participant; researchers found that those who chewed more retained more nutrients from the almonds. Those participants who chewed less retained less nutrients, proving to researchers that the body is less efficient at absorbing nutrients from the larger, unchewed portions.
"Particle size [affects the] bioaccessibility of the energy of the food that is being consumed," says Richard Mattes, PhD, Distinguished Professor of Nutrition Science at Purdue."The more you chew, the more nutrients are retained in the body."

Ok so I am a new mom. Baby is 2 weeks old. I was having trouble breast feeding at first--my left nipple hurt so bad that I favored my right side more. Well--that was stupid because now my right breast fills up with milk a LOT faster then my left. I should of known that was going to happen.
I'm wondering how I can get my left breast to fill just as fast as my right?

To find a doctor, call 800-667-5356 or click below:
Find a Doctor
Request an Appointment
Treatments typically involve high doses of intravenous (IV) antibiotics in the hospital. Blood tests will identify the type of bacteria involved and the proper antibiotic will be prescribed. The antibiotic treatments may last up to six weeks.
This will require the placement of an IV catheter in your arm for the duration of your treatment. This is also known as a PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) line. You will be monitored closely during and after treatment to ensure the infection is resolving. Sometimes, surgery is needed to repair or replace the damaged valve.
If the infection revealed an abnormal heart valve, surgery may be required to repair the valve and its function.
Mitral valve repair is an operation designed to fix the faulty valve. Repairing, as opposed to replacing, the abnormal valve is the goal.
Repair is less likely to weaken the heart, carries a lower risk of infection, and decreases the need for the lifelong use of blood-thinning medications. We are successful in valve repair for mitral regurgitation in 95 percent of cases.
In valve repair, an incision is made in the breastbone to expose the heart. An alternative approach that allows access to the heart through one or more small incisions in the side of the chest wall may be used in some patients. This minimally-invasive approach can result in a smaller incision or scar, reduced blood loss, and a shorter hospital stay.
A mitral valve repair operation involves surgery on the leaflets as well as an annuloplasty. In an annuloplasty, a prosthetic ring is used to tighten the annulus (ring) around the valve through which the leaflets connect to the heart muscle.
At the CardioVascular Institute, approximately 95 percent of patients needing mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation have their leaky valve repaired. If repairing the valve isn't an option, your surgeon will recommend valve replacement.
In this operation, the faulty valve is replaced with an artificial or prosthetic valve. Prosthetic valves can either be tissue or mechanical.
After surgery, you will typically stay in the intensive care unit for one to two days, with a total hospital stay of about four to five days.

My friend picked up a DK Four Pack. How good of a bike is it?
My friend picked up a DK Four Pack. How good of a bike is it?
if its the 06 im thinking about getting one. since i had to sell my fbm's when i moved almost 2 months ago. im desperate. i haven't even touched a bike(metaphorically speaking) since i moved.
Who cares? I picked up a few Hoffman's, an S&M, and about 6 or seven other bikes last week. They weren't very heavy, and I put them back down with ease.
As far as the bike being good, I'm sure they're well behaved. Or did you mean to ask "How good are they"?
[edit] the subtle nuances of language seem to escape kids today.
If it wasn 't good I'd take out the belt.

So what's the worst part of the Manchester United crisis? The results? The performances? The player disdain? No.
The worst part of this entire scenario is that Manchester United fans can see the next disaster coming but they remain powerless to do anything about it.
When the team was announced on Tuesday, for example, there was uproar on Twitter from Manchester United fans who couldn't believe that Cleverley, Young and Valencia were picked concurrently. Selecting one would have been avoidable. Two, highly dubious. But all three? Utter madness.
Meanwhile Adnan Januzaj, Manchester United's best player of the season, wasn't even on the bench for an absolutely crucial game. He wasn't injured. He was rested. Next Manchester United game? March 8th.
We will give Moyes the benefit of the doubt and assume that Rafael da Silva was still concussed – because every fan of Manchester United knows that he's immeasurably better than Chris Smalling on the right. Yet Moyes often seems to prefer the increasingly clumsy centre back. Rafael may make the odd mistake but he has the pace to recover. And he offers more going forward than any of the wingers.
Fellaini? The £27.5m man? Overlooked by Moyes in favour of Tom Cleverley – presumably because The Belgian had been out for three months. But, having paid so much money for the player, you would have thought that Moyes would have enough faith in Fellaini to play him for an hour. Wouldn't you?
There just doesn't seem to be a clear policy at Manchester United under Moyes. No style developing. No players improving. No portents whatsoever that things are close to bottoming out. The poor bloke simply seems out of his depth – it's clear to everyone except The Glazers – and his management of Tuesday's game beggared belief.
Why is Moyes exempt from the sack when every other Premier League manager would have gone by now, had their results been so much worse than the previous season? This blind faith of The Glazers could be the undoing of Manchester United long-term.
It's nothing personal. Most Manchester United fans simply want the guy out and a more competent coach to take the reigns.

Those Enterprise versions come with gold plated, velvet glove support. I'd head back to your IT or company and get them to support it and since it is the very expensive Enterprise version, if the IT is stumped remember they do have front line, better than average phone support too.
I wish I could afford this version.
When starting my system it comes up and says Windows is starting and normally with in about 4- 5 seconds windows icon comes up above that. I have noticed now that its taking about 2 minutes for the windows icon to come up and finish. Does anyone know how I can speed it up? Ive deleted %Temp% files,ran prefetch, cleanup, updated and ran antivirus. Ok.. Defrag..ok. msconfig
Help im out of ideas.
Thank You

I would assume to buyout HBK it will require a simple majority (50.1%) of the vote for the particular asking price (if/when it comes)? Are there any major (%) holders who could sway the vote one way or another? In many cases, a lot of us would like to see the possible offer at $1+, while a major holder may see .60 as a substantial profit and consider it rather than "risk" it. There are seemingly more than a few people who will take .6, and add a couple of major holders and you have 50.1%.

God of War: Ascension is an upcoming third person action-adventure video game in development by Santa Monica Studio and to be published by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). The game is scheduled to be released on March 12, 2013, for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) video game console and will be the seventh installment in the God of War series and a prequel to the entire series. Loosely based on Greek mythology, the game will be set in Ancient Greece with vengeance as its central motif. The player will control the protagonist Kratos, the former servant of the God of War, Ares. Kratos attempts to sever ties with Ares—who tricked Kratos into killing his wife and child—by defeating the three Furies.
The gameplay will be similar to that of its predecessors. It will focus on combo-based combat, achieved through the player's main weapon—the Blades of Chaos—and secondary weapons acquired later. The game will feature revamped quick time events that require the player to complete various game controller actions in a timed sequence to defeat stronger enemies and bosses. It will also feature puzzles and platforming elements. In addition to its similar gameplay, it will be the first installment to feature multiplayer for both competitive and cooperative play, and include a revamped combat and weapon system, new gameplay mechanics, and downloadable content. A multiplayer beta was held from December 12, 2012 to January 21, 2013.
The story behind God of War: Ascension tells the journey of Kratos' redemption from his past sins and the rise of his rage to break free from Ares' bond. The game is set six months after Kratos murdered his wife and child;[6] about ten years before the original God of War. Joystiq confirms "players will be introduced to a more human Kratos than ever before" with director Todd Papy stating that the game will be "giving people a look at Kratos' human side so fans can relate to him better and understand some of the stuff he went through when he was younger." Papy also confirmed that Kratos will have the "Blades of Chaos" and that the story takes place after Kratos sold his soul to Ares. At PAX 2012, Santa Monica announced that the three Furies—who Kratos must defeat to break his bonds with Ares—are the main antagonists of the game. Megaera, one of the Furies, was featured in a new trailer.
On February 1, 2013, Santa Monica previewed the first 30 minutes of God of War: Ascension's single-player to the media; the same content of the demo released on February 26. A cinematic narrative voiced by Linda Hunt describes a time before the Titans and the rule of the Olympian Gods when there was an aeons-long war between the Primordials, the beings who forged the Earth. The war spawned the Furies, the guardians of honor who punish those they deem guilty. When Aegaeon, the Hecatonchires, broke a blood oath to Zeus, the King of the Gods, he became the first traitor and a target for the Furies. As punishment, Aegaeon was captured and subsequently tortured and turned to stone. Aegaeon was then made a giant prison of the damned: now a symbol of the consequences of breaking a blood oath to a god.
Gameplay begins with an imprisoned Kratos, chained for breaking his blood oath to the God of War, Ares. Megaera, one of the three Furies, tortures Kratos, but accidentally facilitates his freedom. Pursued by Kratos, a desperate Megaera begins to awaken Aegaeon—revealed to be the prison housing the Spartan and other oath breakers.
As seen in the demos, the gameplay of God of War: Ascension is similar to that of its predecessors. It is a third-person single-player video game viewed from a fixed camera perspective. The game also features a first-person camera view. The player controls the character Kratos in combo-based combat, platforming, and puzzle game elements. Kratos is guided through various environments while fighting enemies, who come mostly from Greek mythology. Platforming elements require the player to climb walls, jump across chasms, and slide down walls to proceed through sections of the game. Some puzzles are simple, such as moving a box so that the player can use it as a jumping-off point to access a pathway unreachable with normal jumping, but others are more complex, such as finding several items across different areas of the game to unlock one door. The single-player will feature a "revamped" combat and weapon system, "promptless" mini-games and new puzzles. Sony stated the game will offer "fluid, life-like characters, dynamic lighting effects, and world-changing scenarios", although the story is "a little bit shorter" than previous games.
Kratos' main weapon is the Blades of Chaos: a pair of blades attached to chains that are wrapped around Kratos' wrists. The blades can be swung around to attack enemies. Kratos will be able to imbue the Blades of Chaos with different elemental properties, such as fire, ice, and black magic. Although little has been revealed about new weapons obtained in the game, Kratos will be able to pick up the weapons of defeated foes and use them (also allowing Kratos to switch weapons mid-combo) for a limited time. Little has been revealed of the magical abilities that will be acquired, except for the Life Cycle mechanic, which will allow Kratos to freeze enemies and manipulate time for puzzle solving. As in previous games, a "Rage" mode is included, which provides increased attack damage and different attack combinations. Unlike the previous games, the "Rage" meter is filled by attacking enemies and once full, the ability is automatically activated and remains activated until Kratos is attacked, thus requiring the meter to be refilled.
As in the previous games, players will find chests colored green, blue, or red, with each chest containing orbs or the corresponding color. Green orbs replenish the player's health, blue orbs replenish magic allowing further usage, and red orbs provide experience for upgrading weapons and magic—making new, more-powerful attacks available. Red orbs are also collected by destroying certain inanimate objects. As in the previous games, the player can collect Gorgon Eyes and Phoenix Feathers. The Eyes and Feathers increase the length of the health and magic meters, respectively. In combat, a quick time event (QTE) feature, also called context sensitive attacks, is initiated when the player has weakened a strong foe. The player performs a sequence of actions on the game controller shortly after the appearance of an on-screen prompt. This allows for limited control of Kratos during a QTE cinematic sequence, which, if successful, ends the battle; failure usually results in damage to the protagonist.
The game will offer a multiplayer feature for up to eight players, with a small story element. Players will be either on two teams of four, or alone, and will try to take control of a map in order to earn rewards from the gods, although the players must first sell their champion's soul to one of four deities: Ares, Hades, Zeus, or Poseidon. Each god offers a unique combat play-style and abilities in battle. Players will unlock special magic abilities, new and upgraded armors and weapons, relics, and other treasures as players earn experience points (XP) to level up their warrior. The attack-style of the god with whom players align is critical to their warrior's path.
There will be four multiplayer modes: Team Favor of the Gods, Favor of the Gods, Trial of the Gods, and Capture the Flag. The signature multiplayer mode is Team Favor of the Gods. In this mode, two teams of four—Spartans versus Trojans—try to accumulate a target amount of points in order to claim victory. Points, known as Favor, are earned by kills and other methods. When players are not on the offensive, they may help their team earn points by capturing altars, collecting red orbs from chests, and setting traps for opposing players. Every multiplayer map features several special power-ups awarded by the gods, such as the Boots of Hermes for accelerated speed, providing players with a brief advantage.The non-team version, Favor of the Gods, is a four player deathmatch with the same goal as the team version. Trial of the Gods is a two-player, cooperative, time trial mode. In this mode, players face five increasingly hard waves of mythological monsters, followed by a boss fight, whilst surviving against the clock. A single-player version will be available. In Capture the Flag, the Spartans and Trojans battle to steal the opposing team's flag and return it to their base until a target amount of flags have been captured. Each multiplayer map is based on a signature God of War location (e.g. Desert of Lost Souls from God of War and Forum of Hercules from God of War III)
The first demonstration featured the Team Favor of the Gods mode on the Desert of Lost Souls map. Players serve either Sparta or Troy and battle in teams for control of territory, with the Titan cyclops Polyphemus also in play and attacking the warring armies. Contested zones contain mechanical gears that control the chains binding the one-eyed giant, and after capturing multiple gears and earning a certain number of Favor, the gods will award the winning army with the Spear of Olympus, which in turn provides the power needed to dispatch Polyphemus. The mode fluctuates from attack and defend, forcing the offensive team to hold the territory gained as they attempt to destroy Polyphemus. If the defensive team regains control of territory, Polyphemus resets to original position and the Spear is lost.

Pregnant with FVL and MTHFR. STRESSING OUT
same here. not sure I will ever be over the 'fear'......hetero fvl and homo mthfr with high ptt....praying the lovenox works for the both of us!!! I am about 17 weeks right now and so far so good! I have had 4 m/c in the last year (2 'later' and 2 cps)....GL to you!!!
J&M=A(6/05) T(7/07) E(5/09) R(6/13) M(6/15) MMC 14w(2/14/12) MC 11w(6/27/12) MMC BO (7/9/14) cps (8/20/12&9/22/12)
For MTHFR, are you also on L-methylfolate and Bio Bs?
I felt the same way with my last pregnancy. I'm only compound hetero MTHFR, but I had a few early miscarriages and a very complicated pregnancy with my first daughter. I actually bled heavily until 8 weeks, and lightly until 16 weeks, and didn't miscarry. I thought I was every day for all of those weeks, though. I was waiting for the same thing with my 2nd daughter, but it didn't happen. Lovenox, metanx, progesterone, and low dose aspirin is what worked for me. She's almost 9 months old now!
mrseawilliams....I am on about the same thing as you-although I am also on p-5-p (peridoxyl-5-phosphate) another active B since we can't absorb the synthetic form...you may want to add that too as it works with the methylcobolamin and they work much more efficiently when used together....I also was on progesterone-but that has nothing to do with our 'condition' butmore to do with your levels....I would trust your dr if they sait it was good (do you know what it was at?) my dr. automatically prescribes it after multiple m/cs as it cannot hurt...so I don't know if I 'really' needed it but it was worth it in my opnion.
J&M=A(6/05) T(7/07) E(5/09) R(6/13) M(6/15) MMC 14w(2/14/12) MC 11w(6/27/12) MMC BO (7/9/14) cps (8/20/12&9/22/12)
Good luck, and I can definitely relate. I had 3 m/c prior to my miracle bio-baby. I'm hetero FVL and MTHFR, no clots yet, and went through the pregnancy on folic acid, prenatal, and a daily baby aspirin.
My biggest regret was not being able to "enjoy" the pregnancy more and being fearful all the time. It wasn't until she started kicking that I allowed myself to start bonding with her.
Best wishes for a happy, healthy, and uneventful 8 months...

Oh--dealing with the stress--acknowledge your emotions, don't judge the emotions you're having. know who is a good support system (i.e. these boards). I'm incredibly close to my mom, but she wasn't a good support system b/c she never went through the m/cs, so she just didn't "get" it.
Take each day at a time. Focus on your health and well-being. Work on a hobby if you have spare time to pass the time (i.e. knitting). Start to plan...even though you don't want to allow yourself to "go there", do it anyway. Don't take a lot of action until you're out of the first TM, but plan and allow yourself to daydream.
Pray...or meditate...or whatever you choose to do.
Dawn-FVL & MTHFR; DH; DD1-SPD & APD; DD2^^3 angels^^; Furbabies R & T.
I'd have them check your progesterone just to be sure it's staying up. It's my theory (I haven't found any studies on MTHFR specifically) that we're prone to low progesterone/luteal phase defects because we can't absorb b6/b12 properly. Those vitamins have been used to naturally treat a luteal phase defect. So, in my head, I think we're at risk. I took 200mg of progesterone twice a day as a suppository. As my pregnancy progressed, I took one as a suppository and one orally (because I was having irritation) and taking it orally was better than a sleeping pill for me. I was out within an hour. Although my progesterone was "normal," I still had spotting without it. I always had early miscarriages without it, so there was something going on with me where I needed it.
I really think you're on a good protocol. It sounds like you have all of your bases covered. It's hard not to stress after being through miscarriages. But you've made changes this time! I'll be thinking of you and hoping everything goes smoothly for you.

Woman who stole truck from Franklin gas station shot by Milwaukee police, report states
Franklin - A 31-year-old Milwaukee woman who stole a truck from a customer at a Franklin gas station used the vehicle to ram a squad car in Milwaukee during a police pursuit on Christmas Eve, police said.
According to the Franklin police report:
A 25-year-old man reported that his 2000 Ford F250 truck was stolen at Andy's Gas, 5040 W. Rawson Ave., at 2:25 p.m. Dec. 24. He had left it parked and running while he went inside the business.
The truck owner was able to get a ride from another customer, and they followed the stolen truck to College Avenue and 27th Street before losing sight of it.
Milwaukee police officers on patrol spotted the stolen vehicle about 6:45 p.m. and followed it into an alley near 72nd Street and Mill Road. The driver rammed the truck into the police squad while making a U-turn in the alley. An officer fired a weapon at the vehicle after the driver backed up and attempted to ram the squad a second time. The driver, a 31-year-old Milwaukee woman, was grazed by the bullet.
She was arrested for recklessly endangering safety and theft of a vehicle.
Police recovered the truck and it was returned to its owner.

Interview: Black Veil Brides' Andy Biersack on "Aggressive" New Album, Working with Bob Rock, and Misconceptions about His Band
Sammi Chichester | Jul 29, 2014 | Comments 18 | Tags: Andy Biersack, Black Veil Brides, Bob Rock
"It's been so much fun–we're in great spirits," says Andy Biersack, frontman of the Black Veil Brides. "I know everyone says that they're having a great time—but genuinely, I'm enjoying my life more than I ever have."
When Revolver reached the vocalist for this in-studio report, the band was wrapping up the last few days of recording in Vancouver with famed mega-producer Bob Rock–you know, the guy who oversaw albums like Metallica's "Black Album" and Mötley Crüe's 'Dr. Feelgood.' While Biersack couldn't have been more ecstatic about working with Rock and about his group's new material, he revealed that his current "great spirits" follow what was a dark period in his life between the making of 2013's 'Wretched and Divine' and now. We caught up with Biersack to talk about that, the forthcoming fourth BVB album, "being a militant asshole," and the misconceptions surrounding his band.
REVOLVER What's it like working with Bob Rock?
ANDY BIERSACK The star-struck nature–especially when you're a kid who loves hard rock and metal–when you meet him, there is the initial, "Oh shit. This is Bob Rock." It is the greatest thing we've gotten to experience, which is honorably so rare for the people you look up to–but he's really an awesome person, a joy to work with, and incredibly talented. The biggest thing I can say going away from this record is I've learned more about the process of writing and creating songs and the importance of the elements of songs more so than any other record we've done. I couldn't really put an amount of the value of knowledge that I now have in terms of musical creation, songwriting, and nuances of songwriting.
Bob produced both Metallica's "Black Album" and Mötley Crüe's 'Dr. Feelgood'–which do you like more?
For me, I would probably say the "Black Album" just because the lyrical content tends to skew more towards things I'm interested in. Not to say Nikki [Sixx] is not a great writer, and I'm obviously hugely influenced by Mötley Crüe on many levels, but maybe as an adult now what speaks to me a little bit more now is the "Black Album." If you asked me that question when I was 6 years old, it might be different. It's like picking between your children, but it's two of the biggest rock records of our time.
You said the lyrical content of the "Black Album" interests you more, and speaking of that, how would you describe the lyrical content on the new Black Veil Brides album?
Very angry. I feel like in a lot of ways I had a lot of aggression towards the state of how we were perceived. Obviously some people will see, "Oh, he's the guy who yells at awards shows" or whatever. But in a lot of ways, we had made this record [Wretched and Divine] so large in scale and had this grand story and we did the film. There was a certain level of frustration when you feel you do this thing so large and great, but there were so many people who just refused to listen to the songs, like, "They're a faggy makeup band." I think on some level, when I was younger that used to affect me. In a way, I enjoyed looking back on those feelings because I don't really care anymore. I can't write about things in the moment anyway, but in a way I wanted to re-tap into those aggressive feelings. I think if anything thematically there is a lot more angst on this record in general. I'm shooting from the hip a lot more on this one. There's no grand story and the metaphors aren't as strong. So it's a return to form—more like our first album, lyrically.
So it sounds like the new one is not a concept album like the last one?
There are a few elements of the story that we wanted to tie up from the 'Wretched and Divine' story, but I think it's more hinted at than anything else. There's certainly a theme because we're very theatrical but it is not a straight concept album with a story running throughout. I think the theme of that album is retribution.
With 'Wretched and Divine' being such a big concept record, was it exhausting and did you want to kind of chill out a little after that experience, or do you plan to do more?
No, I think we plan to do more. The one specific thing not being done is a film. But the one thing we did not get to do on the last record is we didn't get to represent a lot of the songs on the record visually in the way that we wanted to. So with us not doing a film, we can invest more time and larger budget into music videos. The plan is to release a few up front and we started pre-production for a lot of the video ideas. I think people will be excited because we're doing a short film prior to the first video coming out that will tie up a lot of the loose ends from the movie.
You said you wrote angry songs for this new record but when we first got on the phone you said you're in a very happy time in your life–what happened to get from point A to B?
I would say when we made the previous record, it was emotionally the hardest period in my life for no other reason than my own misgivings and self-destructive tendencies and I got into a weird funk. It wasn't one thing that spurred it—just sometimes you go through a weird period. When making the movie, it was a very strange time for me. I was so happy about making the album and the process of the concept, but I was not a happy person. I think the band would attest to that and I imagine it was not easy to work with me. I was not being a team player. I was very much, "This is what we're going to wear and sound like." There was not a lot of band voting going on. So with this record, I really wanted to make a concerted effort to bring back the elements of being in a band and being a good friend to my bandmates. It's not easy to admit to everyone when you fucked up. Months prior to making this album, I really wanted to go to everybody and apologize for anything I had done in being a militant asshole–for the lack of a better term. It really brought the vibe back and the experience and nurturing from Bob. We're getting along better as a band now as friends than we have in five or six years. It really does feel like a rebirth.
How did the band react to your change?
Great. You know, I can say I've made a big change but if I don't physically and emotionally live that out and become a better person for my bandmates and family, it's nothing. I don't want to paint myself as some villain—I was never a bad guy doing horrible things, but I got too caught up in wanting a very specific thing to happen to the band. Ultimately, I had to find the ability in myself to get over that and stop being so stringent and learn to laugh a little bit more.
So with the band as a collective unit, what did you create musically?
With the songs being more directed at a personal more angst feel, I think things are definitely heavier. Everybody says this is their heaviest and most melodic but it truly is for us. The feeling was, let's really do something aggressive. We felt that way as a reaction from our own work. When we made 'Wretched and Divine' and as much as I love it, it's a pretty sparkly record—it's a record that could be done as a play because it's very theatrical with no grit. Like many artists, we don't want to redo what we did. We're savvier musicians than we were five or six years ago. We were writing songs together as opposed to fragmented in the studio. So we really wrote songs together, making decisions collectively with Bob there, and went back to a much more grittier and heavier sound.
Did you invite some friends to guest on tracks as you have in the past?
No. [Laughs] We debated back and forward, but the lyrical content is too personal. I would not want someone else necessarily singing these words. That might sound selfish, but this is from our band and we want to deliver it to our audience. I want people to sing along, but this needed to be done as a band as opposed to the last record.
Does your gothic side-project Andy Black influence the writing at all?
Yes and no–maybe emotionally. Coming out of 'Wretched and Divine,' I was still wanting to explore the more theatrical elements of songwriting. That led to Andy Black. I never have written songs like this and I wanted to do it for fun. I didn't think anything would come of that. In doing that, I had emphasized that element of myself and I got out that pop. Going into the Black Veil album, I felt aggressive again. That's not to say there aren't ballads—there are a few songs with instrumentation, we had a full orchestra in the studio. But I was ready to make heavy stuff again and I got the rest out of my system. Now that we've wrapped it up, I feel like I got the release I wanted.
Can you divulge any titles of songs yet?
Well, no. [Laughs]
You've alluded to your controversial Revolver Golden Gods acceptance speech earlier, and in that case, your very devoted fan base came to the band's defense. With this new release, do you want to win over new fans or even care to?
At this point in my career, I've had so many conversations about being divisive and polarizing or whatever buzzword the writer wants to use, and it's really developed this element that isn't there. When I walk around on the street and someone comes up to me, I have just as many full grown men with large beards in Slipknot shirts saying he likes my band as much as I do girls with bright pink hair. In the real world, the polarization doesn't exist. In releasing an album, I only hope that it's great and I think that it is. It's not about pandering. It's not like it will break my heart if people don't think it's great but, "Boy wouldn't it be great if people were with me on how much I loved this thing!" You want to do good by your fan base and people that have supported you, and that's No. 1 for us on an emotional level. I'm not writing songs for someone else—I'm writing songs with the hope someone can get behind my feeling. It's a dangerous game to write a song for a person you don't know. It feels disingenuous. I see so many bands, particularly in the last couple of years, that are trying really hard to write for a person that they've never met. I get the idea behind it and the idea of helping people, but I feel you help people more by exposing yourself.
Besides the idea of Black Veil Brides as this particularly polarizing entity, what were other misconceptions about the band?
This is our first record where people are excited. In previous albums, we were treated like it was surprising that a group of birthday clowns were able to put together a record. We're not for everybody, I get that. There's much more of a buzz about this record and when you work your ass off you want people to be excited. I've always said I'd rather have people paint us as polarizing because they feel something about us emotionally rather than be lukewarm. I want to be in a world where people think something about Black Veil Brides than be the band everyone is just OK with–because there're plenty of those.

Radical Times Call for Visionary Leadership

High Flying Transitions
by Suzanne Bates - Jul, 2012
I haven't done a formal survey but it seems like there are more leaders than ever transitioning into new roles. Seismic shifts and market volatility, massive corporate restructuring, the speed of globalization, the pace of innovation; these are all forces that are catapulting leaders into new roles. Which prompts the chorus of inevitable questions from CEOs and leadership development/talent teams: are they ready? It's a...

How to Give an Effective Performance Review

Most of us crave meaningful feedback at work. It's natural to want validation and acknowledgment for our accomplishments, and many of us wish we could hear constructive criticism more often to help us learn and grow. Yet the tool that organizations give managers, the dreaded performance review, is pretty universally loathed. Most managers aren't well-trained on how to give effective feedback. They forget the importance of...

Apple's Secret Hiding Place
(AAPL - Get Report) idea factory, you might want to look to Hong Kong. Or maybe Singapore. Or possibly even Europe. But you don't need an airline ticket. Instead, you can take a virtual trip on the Internet to the trademark offices of those countries and areas. Do a search for "Apple Computer" and you'll come up with all the phrases and images Apple has trademarked -- or applied to trademark -- in recent years.For many of Apple's recent products and services, such as the iPod shuffle and nano lines and the Aperture photo-editing program, the company had filed a related trademark in locales far from its Cupertino, Calif., headquarters months before they were launched. Of course, some of the trademarked images and phrases have yet to show up in actual Apple products -- and some never may. But the trademarks and filings not yet assigned to an actual product give a potential glimpse into what the company has in development. And that continuing development is key. Although the popularity of the iPod has revived Apple in the past three years and sent its stock soaring, many investors are counting on the company to expand its product lineup in coming years to help continue its rapid growth. Among the more interesting phrases Apple has sought to trademark of late:If you want an idea of what's next to come out of Apple Computer's
iPod Hi-F, which the company filed to protect in Hong Kong last September. As might be expected, the filing indicates that the phrase relates to a device that would be similar to the company's iPod digital music players, but might incorporate "radio receivers, amplifiers, sound recording and reproducing [devices] ... loudspeakers, multiple speaker units, microphones."
Numbers, filed in Malaysia last January. Rumors have abounded that Apple has developed a spreadsheet program similar to Microsoft's (MSFT - Get Report) Excel that it would plug into its iWork suite. But this may or may not be it; a related trademark filing on the phrase in the European Union says that the phrase may be used to cover accounting services and the "compilation of information into computer databases," but the filing also mentions that phrase could be used to cover "computer software for use in creating fonts and titles for film, video, and multimedia ... multimedia computer software; [and] computer software for interactive games."
MacPro, or Mac Pro, which the company filed to protect in New Zealand last November. According to the filing, the phrase is meant to cover a series of devices related to computers. Apple is in the middle of
An Apple representative didn't return a call seeking comment on the company's trademark practices.
Trademark law allows a company to bar others from using a name or graphic symbol for a particular product or service. International regulations allow a company to file for a trademark in one country and essentially transfer that protection to another country months later. Under those international rules, the second country has to treat a transferred trademark application as if it was filed there on the same date that it was filed in the first country.
In practice it means that Apple could keep the potential name of a new product for the U.S. market under wraps there until it officially unveils the product.
moving its computer line
from running on PowerPC chips made by IBM (IBM - Get Report) and Freescale Semiconductor (FSL) to processors made by Intel (INTC).
One of the first
of Apple's computer lines to make the move is its PowerBook professional notebooks, which the company renamed the MacBook Pro line, indicating a desire to disassociate its computers from the PowerPC architecture. Still to be updated: the company's PowerMac line of professional desktops, which may be a good candidate for the MacPro label.

Muddy Waters' new bar and happy hour are an Uptown classic
Muddy Waters
Every day from 3-5 p.m.
We stopped by for happy hour at Muddy Waters recently. Here's our verdict:
Venue: The new (and vastly improved) Muddy Waters in the Lyn-Lake region of Uptown boasts a beautiful new bar, restaurant, and cafe--a perfect arena for post-work happy hour or late-night snacking. The bar offers a modern wood and brick aesthetic, which is both homey and comfortable, and the outdoor patio is a nice little hideaway that manages to keep you mostly sheltered from the hustle and bustle of busy Lyndale Avenue just outside its gate.

Vandenberg to host 23rd Annual Texas Blowout event

7/28/2011 -
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif.
-- Vandenberg is scheduled to host the 23rd Annual Texas Blowout event at Cocheo Park here from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Aug. 5.
The Texas Blowout event is a barbecue coordinated by 392nd Training Squadron personnel to raise funds for another annual event here - Operation Kids Christmas.
Proceeds from the Texas Blowout will pay for this year's Operation Kids Christmas, an annual event in which the men and women of Vandenberg sponsor approximately 200 local underprivileged children during the holidays. For more than 50 years, the Vandenberg community has supported children from Lompoc, Santa Maria, Guadalupe, Solvang and the Santa Ynez Valley.
"Texas Blowout originally started out as just an indoor silent auction," said Capt. Robert Glas, from the 392nd TRS. "After a few years of good performance, the training squadron staff decided it would be nice to include an outdoor barbecue. As such, the event was named 'Texas Blowout' and has continued to be the biggest fundraiser for Operation Kids Christmas each year."
The 2011 Texas Blowout will feature numerous family-fun activities and will include a disk jockey, silent auction, rock climbing wall, bouncy castle,
gift baskets
, games, skateboarding demonstrations, cotton candy and other miscellaneous food and drink.
"Another event at the blowout will be the annual commander's
cow pie toss
," Captain Glas said. "Units decorate the pies and their respective commander, or representative, compete to see who can throw their pie the farthest."
Team Vandenberg is celebrating the 23th anniversary of the Texas Blowout and plans are in the works to make it the biggest yet, but that will require base participation.
"This year the goal is to raise $14,000 in support of Operation Kids Christmas," Captain Glas said.
The Operation Kids Christmas program's preparation requires a year-round effort, which includes the Texas Blowout.
"Texas Blowout is one of the largest fundraisers for Operation Kids Christmas each year," said Capt. Glas. "This event is for an incredibly good cause and we would like to see it continue for many more years."
The event is open to anyone with base access.
Ticket prices are as follows: $10 for military personnel E-6 and above, $20 for a family ticket; $8 for military personnel E-5 and below, $10 for a family ticket. Tickets can be purchased through the following unit POCs:

If so, how long?
Does your DH/SO get paternity leave? POLL
Im not even sure I would want him to have paternity leave, I feel better knowing he will be able to leave and have time to de-stress (he needs time to adjust to new things).
That being said, we both agree that when he can, he will have time alone with the baby. That way I get time away and he gets to bond and feel more confident.
Yes, my DH gets his time (8 weeks I think?) but he won't take it all at once. He can't. He's in law enforcement. But we are having family come in for "shifts" and once they all leave, my DH will take some time then.
My DH is self-employed, in theory he can take as much time as he wants, but in reality, he will probably not get many days completely off because the people he works with always need something. I'm hoping he can at least take it easy for a couple of weeks.
Married Aug 7, 2011 Me: 34 DH: 45
MC Twin angels Feb 2012 at 10 weeks.
Our Rainbow is here! Phoenix Sky was born March 22, 2013
My husband does not get paternity leave per say, but since I will be traveling home to Denmark to give birth, he will "relocate" his office from Nairobi to Denmark from about 2 weeks before birth to about 1 month after birth when we can go home to Kenya.
He's an extremely hard worker - but has the freedom to plan his own time, - as he always delivers his boss is very flexible in a situation like ours :)
It's a boy! ... and he's pretty darn perfect ;)
yes, he gets ~10 days I believe and he can take it any time up to a year after the baby is born just in case he is deployed at the time of birth or something. he's in the navy
My hubby has to use 2 weeks of vacation first then he gets 6 weeks of unpaid leave. He won't be doing that though. We are just planning on him taking 1 week off because we can't afford for him to go on unpaid leave.
No, but my husband gets 6 weeks of vacation a year. He has been stockpiling from last year, so he has lots of time. I think he will just take a few days off, then work half days for bit.
I'm so excited. It's 30 days for us. He's thinking what he wants to do is split it into 60 days, have 1/2 work days, just because he wants to keep up with his field, and it would be actually hard to miss that much time during big renovation projects. So he'll probably his his normal Schedule, Sunday - Weds but istead of working til' 4:45 pm, he'll work til' 12. I can't WAIT! We're both so excited for him to get here so we can meet him :)
My DH will get two weeks of paternity leave, and like a PP said, he can use it within the first year. He was also told that it doesn't have to be used at once...as in he can take ten Fridays off or something. I'm very much looking forward to this, but I'm sure it will seem too short!

Authorities originally said they had exchanged gunfire with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-KHAHR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) for more than one hour Friday evening before they were able to subdue him.
The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation, say investigators recovered a 9 mm handgun believed to have been used by Tsarnaev's brother, Tamerlan, from the site of a gun battle Thursday night, which injured a Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority officer. Dzhokhar was believed to have been shot before he escaped.
The officials tell The Associated Press that no gun was found in the boat. Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said earlier that shots were fired from inside the boat.

NSF & Congress
Dr. Richard Zare
National Science Board
Before the VA, HUD, & Independent Agencies Subcommittee
House Appropriations Committee
April 10, 1997
Chairman Lewis and members of the Subcommittee, I appreciate the opportunity to testify before you this morning. I am Dr. Richard Zare, Chairman of the National Science Board and Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University. I would like to convey to you today a bit of the excitement and value to the nation of the research and education activities that will be supported by the National Science Foundation's FY 1998 budget request. I will also mention some of the work of the Board in helping to develop this budget, and in trying to get a better understanding of the possible effects of any changes in Federal agency research programs on the broader picture of Federal support for research.
First, however, I would like to thank the Subcommittee for its strong support of the Foundation in the past. Your continuing commitment to a strong national effort in research and education is extremely important to the NSF as we carry out our various responsibilities.
The National Science Board is a 24-member body appointed by the President for six-year terms. We represent a broad cross-section of the nation's leaders in science, engineering and education, and include full-time researchers, educators, university officials and industry executives. Since the founding of the NSF in 1950, the Board has exercised two roles: that of a national policy body, and that of a governing body for the Foundation. In many respects the latter role is similar to that of a corporate board of directors, but as a Federal entity we operate within the framework of policy guidance established by the Congress and the Administration.
The Board approves NSF's policies, budget proposals, new programs and major multimillion-dollar awards, and generally oversees the fiscal and management operations of NSF as a whole. We work very hard to make sure that all of the Foundation's policies, systems, programs and awards are of the highest quality, incorporate our best thinking, and reflect the perspectives of the communities we represent.
The budget before you has the wholehearted approval of the Board. NSF funding is a vital investment in the nation's future. The budget you're looking at today will provide the means to fund thousands of worthwhile projects across the exciting frontiers of all fields of research, and it will fund important efforts to improve the Nation's education in science, mathematics, engineering and technology.
I would especially like to call your attention to a new initiative in the area of Knowledge and Distributed Intelligence, which holds immense potential as a driver of progress and opportunity for all Americans. This is a new set of investments spanning a wide range of Foundation programs, including NSF's part of the Next Generation Internet, and going beyond that, for example, to better link research in cognition with technologies for teaching and learning. I am so excited about the possibilities arising from this "KDI" initiative that I wrote an editorial that appeared in Science magazine on February 21. With your permission, I would like to submit the editorial for the record.
The Foundation's FY 1998 budget also is important for improving education in science and mathematics at all grade levels. Aside from the beauty and enjoyment that flows from better understanding our world, there are three practical reasons for that education:
A task force consisting of the Board members and senior NSF staff, with input from our proposer and reviewer communities developed new general criteria. The revised criteria were adopted at our March meeting, a couple of weeks ago for use for all proposals reviewed beginning October 1. NSF is getting the word out to the national research community, so investigators can have the new criteria in mind as they work on their proposals over the summer.
We are also providing oversight to NSF as it develops methods and processes to comply with the present and forthcoming requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act, and monitoring the phase-in of other legislated government-wide requirements such as the Information Technology Management Reform Act.
In addition to our close and continuing oversight of NSF, the Board has a special role in monitoring the health of science and engineering in the U.S. and in providing advice on national policy in research and education. We have been discussing ways to give considerable attention this year to research funding priorities within NSF, in the context of the overall picture of support by the various Federal agencies.
The world is changing more quickly than ever. Each of us sees the speed and force of those changes around us every day, in ways that we perceive as wondrous, elegant and profound -- even, sometimes, a little overwhelming. I need only mention three examples:
In more down-to-earth ways, we also see, for example, that global competition in manufacturing continues to grow, challenging our economic base; and that the public's expectations about combating terrorism, violence, disease, poverty and environmental problems continue to rise. Although research alone cannot solve these problems, it is one of the most important contributors to their solution. Because the Federal government plays a critical role in supporting the fundamental research that underlies progress in these areas, it is more important than ever that a robust and well-considered level of overall Federal investment in long-term research be sustained.
Strong support for NSF is clearly a keystone of that investment. And strong support for the research performed or supported by other Federal agencies, in connection with their missions, is vital as well. The Board is very concerned about the possibilities for reduction or compression of the overall Federal investment in research. We are concerned as well for the possible fate of the various research programs in Federal agencies whose budgets -- indeed, their very existence -- continue to be challenged.
Mr. Chairman, we urge the Congress, when considering funding for Federal agencies that have science, engineering and education programs, to do so with explicit regard for the relationships among those programs across the government and with industrial research and development. It is important not to take actions that will undercut areas of science and engineering vital to our national interest.
The Board's efforts over the next few months will center on getting a clearer understanding of the many linkages within the Federal and national picture for research so that we will be better able to visualize or anticipate the consequences of various actions by the Administration and Congress.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I would be glad to take any questions.
