Candidate, election official set to square off in District CourtPublished 11:38pm Thursday, October 4, 2012
Next Tuesday, voters will show up to the polls to settle three races in the city of Selma. At the same time, beginning at 9 a.m., one candidate and a leading election official will be in court, standing before District Judge Bob Armstrong.
Armstrong is scheduled to hear, and potentially reach a decision, in a probable cause case between Lola Sewell, a member of the Dallas County Board of Registrars and Tremayne "Toby" Gorden, a candidate for Selma City Council president.
"Someone was passing out flyers that were defamatory against me," Sewell said. "And we are trying to sue them for defamation of character."
Last week, flyers were handed out in the downtown area that read, "Be on the lookout for Lola Sewell, Wanda McQueen Tyler and Nadine Sturdivant. They will steal your vote — don't let them do an absentee ballot for you — They are being paid for your vote. "
Sewell said she, and the other individuals listed in the flyer, are hoping for Armstrong to find probable cause for a libel case against Gorden, because they were informed Gorden was behind the printing and distribution of the flyers.
After Sewell approached an individual handing out the flyers, telling them they would possibly face defamation charges. The individual called Sewell that night and left a voicemail, informing Sewell that they were campaigning for Gorden.
"You said I was handing out flyers about you … you are gonna have to talk to Tremayne Gorden. That is who I am working for. I am campaigning for him … I was just doing my job," the individual said. Sewell recorded the conversation, which the Times-Journal listened to.
"This is the first time a criminal case for libel has been brought in Dallas County that I can recall. Normally these cases are filed in civil court," District Attorney Michael Jackson said. The case is not a lawsuit — no one is pressing charges and no one issued a warrant.
"That is why they call it probable cause," Jackson said.
Jackson explained that under the statute 13A-11-160 for libel tending to provoke a breach of peace, two parties can go before a judge who will determine if there is probable cause for criminal libel and defamation of character.
If probable cause for libel were to be discovered, a warrant could then be issued and a criminal case would begin.
Gorden declined to make a comment when contacted by the Times-Journal.

As we first reported a month ago, Oddfellows Hall--the Capitol Hill home to the Velocity dance studio, Century ballroom, and a number of other arts organizations--has been sold, and there's been much anxious murmuring since about what the plans might be. Well, the buyer, Ted Schroth of GTS Development (which also did Trace Lofts), tells me he plans to send out a press release on Monday outlining his plans.
Some insight can already be gleaned from the permit status report for the project on the Seattle DPD Web site. As our Sandi Kurtz observes, it proproses changes to the 1st and 4th floors of the four-story building. Specifically, the developers (via their architects) are proposing to change the usage of some spaces from "assembly" (theater, meeting space, etc.) to B (business use, usually offices).
Says Sandi: "The changes that are germane to the arts use of the building are the ones on the 4th floor, where Velocity operates the old Seattle Mime Theater space, now called the Chamber Theater. [It's where Ghost Light is putting on Rosencrantz right now.] It's been a relatively popular space for artists who self-produce -- it was fairly inexpensive, both as a theater and as a rehearsal space, it came with a lighting set-up in place, it's in a well-know building.It looks from the job description that the new owners would be closing that space if they follow through with their proposed remodel."
However, it appears that there are no immediate plans for the 2nd and 3rd floors, which would leave the major arts tenants intact. We should find out more on Monday.
UPDATE: Longenbaugh reports that Robyn Smith of Freehold Theatre met with the new owners and came away dismayed. She says her group is now working under the assumption that their spaces on the ground floor (offices, rehearsal rooms) will be turned into retail (alongside the running store).
Smith told John the lease agreement is set up so that the new owners can have tenants move out in six months under a renovation/demolition clause, and they expect to be homeless by April.

Silverdocs Slate Includes Films About Bad Brains, Ai Weiwei
This June marks the 10th iteration of Silverdocs, and for the second year in a row, the film festival seems to have placed a special emphasis on music: The annual celebration of documentary film opens on June 18 with Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey's, Ramona Diaz's film about Arnel Pineda, a formerly homeless Filipino singer with the voice of a steamship, who in 2007 became the lead singer of Journey. And on June 23 the festival will show its closing-night film, Big Easy Express, which follows the bands Mumford & Sons, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, and Old Crow Medicine Show on a tour from California to New Orleans.
Mumford & Sons? JOURNEY? I'm not saying great films can't be made about terrible bands (see Anvil! The Story of Anvil), but if it were up to me—and there's a reason these kind of things are not—I would've opened or closed the festival with Bad Brains: A Band in D.C., Mandy Stein's look at the D.C. punk pioneers, which premiered this spring at South by Southwest and which, or so I've heard, takes a respectful look at the group's legacy and a hard look at its current state. The film shows at Silverdocs on June 21 and June 23, and there's no reason not to expect a big hometown crowd.
There's more music-related programming from there: The slate includes Beware of Mr. Baker, local filmmaker Jay Bulger's bio of Cream drummer Ginger Baker; Charles Bradley: Soul of America, about a James Brown impersonator; The Punk Syndrome, about a punk band whose members all have mental disabilities; and Wagner's Dream, about Robert Lepage's controversial reimagining of Wagner's Ring Cycle for the Metropolitan Opera. High on my dance card is Searching for Sugar Man, about the American cult singer Rodriguez and his unlikely late-career rise to fame in South Africa.
At a press luncheon today, festival director Sky Sitney emphasized the festival's focus on creativity—a celebratory motif that complements Silverdocs' 10th birthday. Two of the contemporary art world's most prominent figures are profiled in Marina Abramović: The Artist Is Present and Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry. Beauty Is Embarassing focuses on Wayne White, the visual artist, director, and cartoonist who co-created Pee-Wee's Playhouse. Joe Papp in Five Acts looks at the founder of New York's Shakespeare in the Park series and the Public Theater.
And of course there is the heavier fare: David France's How to Survive a Plague centers on the early optics of the AIDS crisis, when two groups, ACT UP and TAG, helped destigmatize the disease's victims. Detropa, by Jesus Camp directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady, centers on Detroit as it rebuilds itself itself in the wake of economic devestation. Matthew Heineman and Susan Froemke's Escape Fire attempts to diagnoise what ails the American health care system; another film, Peter Nicks' The Waiting Room, centers on a single ER in Oakland, Calif. And Why We Fight director Eugene Jarecki's The House I Live In overviews the American war on drugs.
This year's Guggenheim Symposium and Retrospective focuses on the works of Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky, who will discuss their careers on June 19. Included in the retrospective screenings, of course, is Berlinger and Sinofsky's memorable film about a band warring against itself, Metallica: Some Kind of Monster.
And there's way, way more—114 films total, including some mighty-looking shorts programs and the festival's annual symposium for filmmakers. Look for a full schedule soon on silverdocs.com.
Update: Here's the whole slate.

Entertainment Gaming Asia reported net income of $1.8 million, or $0.06 per share, on a weighted average diluted share count of approximately 30.8 million shares in the 2012 fiscal year. The 2012 fiscal year net income included $339,000 in non-cash impairment charges primarily associated with the write-down of certain gaming machines and systems as discussed above. Excluding these non-cash charges, net income was $2.1 million, or $0.07 per share, for the 2012 fiscal year. For the 2011 fiscal year, the Company reported net income of $642,000, or $0.02 per share, on a weighted average diluted share count of 29.7 million. Excluding the above-mentioned non-cash impairment charge in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company reported net income of $2.0 million, or $0.07 per share, for the 2011 fiscal year.The increase in net income for the fourth quarter and 2012 fiscal year was primarily the result of higher consolidated revenues, lower impairment charges, reduced stock-based compensation and interest expenses, and foreign currency gains compared to losses in the same periods of the prior year. This was partially offset by higher gaming division costs related to the new casino operations compared to the same periods of the prior year.

Bizarre Life Forms Thrive Beneath Earth's Surface
July 1997
In the classic tale, A Journey to the Center of the Earth, Jules Verne imagined elaborate worlds in a hollow, miles beneath our feet. More modern science-fiction novelists have dreamed of spheres in outer space where earthling astronauts encounter alien life forms. Now these two ideas are being fused in a bubbling witches' cauldron: deep within the planet may be the best place to find new life forms on our planet--and glean clues to possible life on others.
Vaporous hot pools far beneath Earth's surface support microbes conducting the business of life at extreme temperatures and pressures. The microbes, some of which are bacteria, are all called extremophiles, and their potentially far-reaching domain is called the subsurface biosphere.
Life in Extreme Environments
In mid-March, at a workshop funded by NSF, more than 100 scientists gathered in Washington, D.C., to discuss the subsurface biosphere. At this stage, stated the workshop's organizers, there is little doubt that a subsurface biosphere exists; at issue are its nature and extent. The workshop brought together researchers from fields as varied as geology, chemical oceanography, biological oceanography, microbiology and physics.
Workshop attendees reviewed evidence for subsurface microbial life, considered the physical and geochemical nature of these environments, looked at the diversity of organisms potentially living in the subsurface and their physiological adaptations, and discussed research strategies for sampling and observing the subsurface biosphere.
Plumbing the Depths
Participants noted that extremophiles living closer to the earth's surface have already been studied. These include organisms living in the deep-sea hydrothermal vents and hot pools in Yellowstone National Park.
Furthermore, the molecules that allow these extremophiles to prosper are already intriguing industries. With potential applications ranging from the production of sweeteners and "stonewashed" jeans to the genetic identification of criminals and diagnosis of infectious and genetic diseases, scientists are investigating the "survival kits" of these heat-loving, pressure-tolerating organisms.
But now, tantalizing evidence is taking these scientists--or, more accurately, their instruments--deeper and deeper into the planet.
In A Journey to the Center of the Earth, the zealous Professor Von Hardwigg finds a riddle in Icelandic parchment. This discovery lures him and an intrepid party of explorers on an adventure into the bowels of our planet. Today, in a story no less strange, researchers are following clues leading them on a fantastic descent into Earth's subterranean world, where an entire biosphere of extremophiles ferments in superheated, vise-pressured darkness.
The tale begins with Cornell University theorist Thomas Gold, who led discussions five years ago about how Earth could be harboring a biosphere of deep microbial life that extends for miles. Gold argued that the total mass of this biosphere might rival or exceed that of all surface life. As evidence, Gold talked of the microbes that had been found in deep-sea hydrothermal vents in terrestrial hot springs like those of Yellowstone National Park, and in other deep, hot places. He then suggested that microbial life might be widespread throughout the upper few miles of Earth's crust, inhabiting pores and cracks among rocks and living off Earth's inner heat and bubbling broth of chemicals. Not needing sunlight, this kingdom of microbes could exist independently of Earth's surface.
Gold's theory was soon put to the test by scientists like John Baross and Marv Lilley, both of the University of Washington (UW) at Seattle, and Kim Juniper, of GEOTOP at the Université du Québec at Montreal, Canada, among other researchers. Baross, Lilley and Juniper were co-conveners at the NSF subsurface biosphere workshop.
Expanding Life's Boundaries
In 1993, Baross and UW colleague Jody Deming published a paper entitled "Deep-sea smokers: Windows to a subsurface biosphere?" This paper advanced Gold's theory one more step by theorizing that Earth holds not only thermophilic (heat-loving) organisms, but also "superthermophilic" microbes that live at even more extreme temperatures.
The paper states that superthermophilic microorganisms inhabit pressurized environments beneath deep-sea hydrothermal vents. These super-organisms not only exist, but thrive at temperatures up to and possibly beyond 150o Centigrade (more than 300o Fahrenheit), setting a new limit at which life can exist.
After Baross and Deming published their paper, John Parkes discovered bacteria in a marine sediment core that substantiated the idea of superthermophilic organisms. While working with the NSF-funded Ocean Drilling Project, Parkes, of the United Kingdom's University of Bristol, discovered bacteria that lives at a temperature of 169o Centigrade.
Deming and Baross also offered new geochemical information collected from the Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca Ridge in the deep Pacific Ocean off the U.S. West Coast. These explorations, conducted in the submersible Alvin, indicated that organic materials--the building blocks of life--exist below the surface of hydrothermal vents along the Endeavour Segment.
Deming and Baross added that it is likely that life in the subsurface is a two-way street: microbes living beneath these deep-sea vent--called smokers--change the chemistry of the froth spewing out, just as the microbes themselves depend upon this chemical stew to survive. The smokers got their name because of their chimney-like structures through which fluids from within the planet are released to the surrounding deep ocean.
Connections to Other Worlds
Could there be an entire ecosystem functioning in Earth's subsurface environment?
While this question remains unanswered, today's journey beneath Earth's surface continues, with new questions constantly arising. Says Baross, "Who knows, the subsurface biosphere may be inoculating' the surface biosphere with new seeds of life. And perhaps, if there's a biosphere beneath the surface here, there might also be one under the surfaces of other planets."
To find out, adds geologist John Delaney of UW, scientists first need new ways of collecting samples of this distant, extreme environment on Earth. "We need a system of semi-permanent observatories placed at strategic points along the sea floor that would provide us with new ways of peering beneath the surface."
To help scientists get this kind of information, NSF has created a new funding initiative called "Life in Extreme Environments," or "LexEn." Total funding of $6 million is currently available to scientists exploring the relationships between organisms that live in extreme environments and the extreme environments themselves.
"We believe that the study of extreme environments on Earth and the life they support," says Mike Purdy, coordinator of the new NSF initiative, "is the most effective way of understanding how and where life may exist on other planets and what the limits of life might be on our own."
Research supported by LexEn is expected to lead to the discovery of a diverse group of microorganisms, the lifestyles and biology of which can now only be guessed, Purdy adds.
"We advanced regardless of everything drawn on by ardent curiosity," wrote Jules Verne in A Journey to the Center of the Earth. "What other marvels did this great cavern contain--what other wondrous treasures? My eyes were quite prepared for any number of surprises, my imagination lived in expectation of something new and wonderful."
Scientists like John Baross, Marv Lilley and Kim Juniper would no doubt agree. "If anyone tells me they have a theory on this subject that's even remotely plausible," says Baross, "I have an open mind."

Ok...i take back my post on the original laser paladin....THIS beast is gonna rip a new one to ANY battle line it comes across.
Looks effing badass.
Nice. No, AWESOME!!!! :D
I prefer the previous paladin model. This one looks smaller and a bit boxy.
i like this one better.
looks smaller.
Yes we get it, no stop saying it.
Please don't get me wrong. I love the model, but I think something like this would look even better: Moddb.com
Well CCU is already using that model, and I'm content with using this one.
i think this one is better.
I like the chassis and the PD turret, but the main turret and cannons just doesn't do it for me.
Sick :D
I'm pretty shure that every one would like it...I know I am! :D

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Burundi, a small, poor, land-locked nation in the heart of Central Africa, descended into chaos in April 2015, after incumbent President Pierre Nkurunziza launched his bid for a third-term—something the opposition claim is anti-constitutional. Street protests were violently suppressed and since a failed coup in May, a string of grenade attacks and assassinations have gripped the capital.

Saturday was a very long day. I was at work at 7 a.m., but there weren't any reports dues out until later in the day.
I have been very lucky to work with a really great team of people. We come for all over the world—Japan, Canada, the UK, and of course the U.S. We come from many backgrounds—students, an attorney, an artist, a published author, a snowboarding instructor, petrochemical engineer and retirees. Realistically, we have very little in common, other than wanting to be part of the Olympics and having the Olympic Spirit! I never thought that making copies could be so rewarding!
On Saturday, I just could not leave. There was a really great energy in the Village and in our offices. The U.S. bobsleigh team had won gold, ending a 62-year medal drought. The team was having a press conference in my building! I was lucky enough to be able go downstairs to watch and listen to the team speak about their experiences and winning the medal. What a great bunch of guys! After the press conference I was lucky enough to have my picture taken with Steve Holcomb—he even let me hold the medal. Amazing!

text: Alright, I got into with a friend of mine. She's says she can have ANYONE she chooses to represent her in a court of law, it doesn't have to be a lawyer. It was my understanding that only an attorney who has passed his bar exam who dispense legal advice and thus represent an indiviual. This conversation went on and on and it digressed into her saying she could have someone do surgery on her even though they weren't a doctor but I'm pretty sure thats againest the law as well. Only a licensed doctor could perform surgery. Can anyone shed some light on this and some proof would be awesome. I'd love to shut her up.

It is true that Arsene has taken us to heights unimaginable before he came on board. At the moment he seems to be stuttering and as the coach he has to take the responsibility for this. He is making a few calls that are baffling to understand for a manager as astute as he is. Why is Bendtner thinking about joining the Brums while Aliadiere who has been a failure is still in the squad? Why we cannot score goals despite creating chances by the lorry loads? Why are we underachieving? As far as I am concerned there are only four players who are currently untouchable: TH, KT, WG and CF. Others should not be allowed to become complacent and should be challenged. Things are far from rosy at the Grove and I pray that we turn the tide and become a force once again. But I am afraid the current trend does not augure well for the future. We are fast becoming a spent force. COME ON BOYS, SHOW THAT THERE IS SOME FIGHT LEFT!

The Fare: Mexican>"/>
The Truck: Happy Burrito, permanently parked near 3rd and Bell at erratic hours - supposedly daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
The Fare: Mexican fare: tacos, tamales, burritos.
The Stop: Wedged in a Belltown parking lot between a grocery store and office building, Happy Burrito seems more sad than anything else. It's a sorry sight, one that most people ignore as they, and their retriever mixes, make their way to the dog park that's a block away. To add to Happy Burrito's dreary image, a chain-link fence stands between the truck and sidewalk. And at night, a dim floodlight barely illuminates the shadowy tables that sit underneath a canopy.
With this in mind, you'd think that the food from Happy Burrito would be pretty damn cheerful in order to make up for the truck's somber setting. For the most part, though, it's not.
The meat is what drags this truck's food down. And when you're dealing with food like tacos or burritos, the meat is especially important. Happy Burrito lets customers choose chicken, beef, or pork. Oily, tough, and chewy, the little chunks of pork and chicken are rubbery and taste like they've only been seasoned with salt and pepper. The shredded beef is a step up, but gives the impression that it's been cooked and re-cooked. Multiple visits to this truck brought on multiple servings of disappointment.
Let's talk about the Happy Burrito, which bears the truck's name. It's filled with beans, rice, pico de gallo, sour cream, avocado, cheese, and beef, chicken, or pork. At $5.99, that seems like a pretty basic, decent burrito that would make everybody happy. However, it - at least in pork form - proves to be disappointing. Although the fillings mask the less-than-stellar taste of the pork, the texture is off-putting.
At $1.50 each, the tacos are the basic three-inch in diameter corn tortilla type, with a pile of meat of your choice, on top of a pile of lettuce, onions, cilantro, and cheddar. The mulitas, also the same price, are essentially the same as the tacos, but with corn tortillas on top. Both things would be much, much better with - no surprise - better meat.
An order of a beef tamale, pork mulita, and chicken taco.
Ah, but there is some hope: Happy Burrito's beef tamales are passable. Steamed in leaf wrappers, thick stretches of masa - corn dough, essentially - surround shredded beef. In tamale form, the beef is moist - perhaps because it's insulated by the tamale's sticky dough. Nothing fancy, but certainly, nothing horrible - nothing unhappy.
Maybe in the near future, this Belltown truck will turn its frown upside down so that its food fits its name. For now, though, Happy Burrito is a truck that doesn't make my stomach happy.

Karateka Rainbow Dash by Agu-FungusWatch

And now, Rainbow Dash. I had real fun while trying to do her hair, but I must work more on her face for a more feminine look. Also, I tried to recreate the dojo from the episode "Call of the Cutie" ( ponibooru.413chan.net/post/vie… ). I really need to improve on the backgrounds. Original idea by netcyber. Next is Rarity.

for some reason i feel like dash describes me because the sport i actually practice is karate
Holy shit she's Makoto.
Karate friggin' rules.
Rainbow Dash confirmed for Street Fighter
Cool! I always thought Rainbow Dash was a Karate person!
I'm no fan of the franchise, but I'm not made of stone. I can at least tolerate seeing those characters drawn as human girls. (Just not as ponies with human bodies, or other characters from different franchises turned into ponies. Yech!) And I suppose that hair does look cool on a human woman.
Oh yeah, and nice feet too.
Oh yeah, and nice feet too.
Thank you for the appreciation. Don't forget to check the rest of my gallery for more feet goodness.
Well... I've never really been fond of male human feet (no offense) and I rarely favorite anything unless it really speaks to me, so no promises. However, I might be interested in a commission from you some day.
OK, that's fine. Although there are also other drawings in my gallery with female feet; but I'm glad that you are showing some interest, anyway.
Why does this make me think of DBZ? XD
Very well done!

excellent work
reminds me of tigress.
I picture Dash either with the Kyokushinkaikan style or Shotokan style. Imagine her and Lightning Dust being rivals of either the same or opposing style of Karate, now that'll be interesting how they'll quell with eachother. FAVE!
What makes up for her "size" is her amazing "skills." XD lol
Did you draw her in Kiba Dachi accidentally or it was planned? Also, she looks perfect in blue kimono
Great work, can't wait to see the other ones.
I like how you chose a different martial art style to fit each character. I cannot stress how cool that is!
o wait that's KarateKa... Ooops I gave a diffrent martial art all together
You're just getting the word at the end confused. With 'Do', it means the art itself, with 'Ka' it means a student/practitioner (like a Mangaka, a comic/manga artist). Rainbow Dash is a Karateka practicing Karate-Do. ^^
lol well I never took Karate I only took a class when I was very young then I took a multiple martial art calsses to become the mixed martial artist i am
wow my parents took this martial art they pronounce it Karikido though they learned form the mixed martial artist himself in Carolina
She couldn't take me and my anasatsuken style
Lol street fighter reference
Lol street fighter reference
That's awesome, I practice Karate myself too for 4 years now
Wait until you see the Vinyl Scratch one.
feel like she's about to go super sayan
I wonder what ponies` martial arts are like. As four legged animals, they would be completly different despite their ability to walk on two legs (they can do that, right?).
Yup, they can, and Rarity seems to be very good on martial arts. At least, she seemed to be able to do some nice ass-kicking in some episodes...
Well, she does have a blackish belt indeed!
I like this alot!!!!!
Did you color her eyebrows blue?
very cool concept!
Woah, Dash knows karate, she's so awesome.
OMG I WANNA learn karate FROm RAInbow dash!!!!!! this is just so awesome youre an amazing artist
................God damn it. I.......... bollucks. I see your Vinyl pic while browsing and think "Oh, this is probably just a one-off" but I checked your gallery anyway. I shouldn't have. XD I'm just discouraging myself with the Karateka Dashie (now two) I'm doing. Great work dude - you did everything I'm working on doing but better. I have a goal for what the quality my second pic will need to be now.
I always knew she was a tomboy !
that pics is so awesome

Dave Van Horn - Swatter's Club
Arkansas head coach Dave Van Horn speaks ...
Andrew Benintendi set Ohio career records for hits and runs scored as a senior.
FAYETTEVILLE Arkansas outfield signee Andrew Benintendi will play for the Razorbacks next season, turning down an offer to play minor league baseball for the Cincinnati Reds.
Benintendi was selected in the 31st round by the Reds last weekend, but he has informed the team he will attend college, said his father, Chris Benintendi. The younger Benintendi will go through freshman orientation at the UA beginning next Monday.
As a senior at Madeira High School just outside Cincinnati, Benintendi batted .562 with 12 home runs and 57 RBIs. He also stole 37 bases and was named the Ohio Gatorade Player of the Year after setting state records for career hits and runs scored.
Benintendi is one two rated in Baseball America's top 500 draft eligible players who will attend Arkansas next season. Right-handed pitcher Dominic Taccolini, a Sugar Land, Texas native, went undrafted. Taccolini was a member of the 18-and-under USA National Team last summer.
Pitcher Teddy Stankiewicz, who signed with Arkansas last November, signed a pro deal earlier this week with the Boston Red Sox for a reported $1.1 million. Catcher signee Jon Denney, a third round pick of the Red Sox, is also expected to sign a pro contract.
Stankiewicz and Denney are expected to be the only Arkansas signees to skip college. The Razorbacks' recent signing classes have been cherry-picked by pro teams, with Arkansas losing four signees in 2010 and 2011, and three last year to minor league baseball.

The health cash plan market is growing again. Nick Martindale examines which employees most highly value the benefit and how employers maximise its effect.
In the current economic climate, offering employee benefits that are genuinely appreciated by staff is vital to getting the most from a reward budget, and those that cost relatively little can sometimes have a disproportionate impact in terms of the value placed on them by employees.
According to research by global consultancy TNS on behalf of PMI Health Group, one in 10 employees sees the humble cash plan as the most valued benefit they receive, making it the fourth most popular overall, behind pensions, life insurance and private medical insurance.
Part of their allure, suggests Lorica Employee Benefits senior consultant Sandra Hall, is that they can be used by everyone for everyday expenses, rather than only coming into their own when staff become ill or die.
"They see a cash plan as something they can actually make use of," she says. "Most people go to the optician or to see a dentist throughout the year and might possibly need physiotherapy too, so they see it as a much more valuable benefit than something like private medical insurance, where you're hoping that you'll never need to use it and where, even if it is company-paid, they're looking at a chunky P11D liability."
Another positive feature is the range of employees they can appeal to. Historically, cash plans were born out of Saturday funds – originally designed to finance voluntary hospitals in the late 19th century – and were most common among lower-paid workers in the country's industrial and manufacturing areas of the north and Midlands. In recent years, though, this has changed.
"More and more, I talk to clients and tell them about the value they could get from cash plans and there's a lot more interest from all kinds of companies, including white-collar businesses such as pharmaceutical firms," says Buck Consultants benefit consultant Sarah Brannan.
The TNS research suggests there is now a wide geographic spread; the Midlands and north-east still enjoy high levels of staff appreciation but this is also a highly valued benefit in the south and Wales.
There are certain groups to which cash plans are particularly attractive. The TNS research found 38% of those earning less than the UK average salary of £26,200 put the benefit in their top three, compared to 27% of those earning more than that figure, making it even more appreciated than the much more expensive benefit of private medical insurance in the same category.
Part-time staff – who would inevitably earn less – also appreciate it; some 39% put it in their top three, compared to an average of 35% among full-time colleagues.

Celtics look to back up Pierce's boast
BOSTON – Before the Boston Celtics jetted out of California, Paul Pierce(notes) gave Los Angeles Lakers fans something to remember.
"We ain't coming back to L.A.!" Pierce yelled in the final moments of the Celtics' Game 2 victory.
Pierce has reason for his optimism with the Finals resuming here on Tuesday and two more games at the Garden to follow. History, however, shows it's not too easy for the home team to sweep all three middle games, and the Celtics can blame none other than franchise patriarch Red Auerbach for that.
It was at Auerbach's urging that the NBA decided in 1985 to switch the Finals to a 2-3-2 format instead of the standard 2-2-1-1-1 used in the earlier series. The league made the change to spare teams from having to make additional cross-country flights back when everyone was traveling commercially. Since then, the only home teams to win all three middle games have been the 2004 Detroit Pistons and '06 Miami Heat.
Three visiting teams – the 1990 Pistons, 1991 Chicago Bulls and 2001 Lakers – have swept the middle games, which just proves one thing: At this level of the playoffs, it's hard for any team to beat the other three times in a row.
"It's extremely difficult to do," said former Pistons point guard Isiah Thomas, who was MVP of the 1990 Finals when Detroit won three straight games in Portland to close out the series.
"That's why it's such a rare feat. Mentally, you have to go in there with the attitude that you can crush your opponent. Our locker room was totally silent before we came out for Game 3. We then ran out with [Bill] Laimbeer first, myself second and Joe Dumars third. I never forget Laimbeer running full blast out of the locker room and running a cameraman over.
"We all got to half court and Laimbeer grabbed the ball and slammed it hard to the floor. The Blazers turned around and looked at us, and I thought, 'We are going to kick your ass.' We were the 'Bad Boys.' If you're going to be in a city that long, you have to own a city, make it yours and take it from the home team."
That's easier said than done for the Lakers, considering their famed rivalry with the Celtics makes them loathed here more than any other team. Even after beating the Lakers for the 2008 championship, Celtics fans still pelted L.A.'s bus with rocks as it tried to leave the arena. For now, the Lakers' only goal is to get one win to steal back home-court advantage and force the series to return to L.A.
"In a sequence like this there's no doubt it's a blow to us to lose the home court, but we anticipated this might happen, and we're just going to have to go pick it up," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said.
These Lakers aren't easily intimidated. They closed each of their three previous series with wins on the road and are 4-4 overall away from home this postseason. The Celtics didn't play well at home during the regular season, going 24-17, but have lost just two of their nine playoff games at the Garden this postseason.
"We've been playing great," Celtics president Danny Ainge said. "We had one bad playoff game. Other than that, we're playing great at home. It's going to be crazy. Our Boston crowd has been great in the Cleveland series and the Orlando series."
While Pierce made his bold proclamation to the fans, likely not expecting it to be picked up by TV cameras, he was much more tempered in his comments to reporters.
"I told ya'll that doesn't guarantee we're going to win the games because we're at home," Pierce said. "We've got to go out there and play the game. They're going to be coming into our house and we can't assume anything. We can't take it for granted."
If losing Sunday's game – or getting crushed here in their last game of the 2008 Finals – wasn't motivation enough, the Lakers can now add Pierce's taunt to their fuel. More than anyone, the Lakers know how difficult it is to win in Boston. That's why they're not looking past Tuesday.
"You're trying to stay even keel," Kobe Bryant(notes) said. "You don't get too high, don't get too low after a win or a loss. You just go into the next one and take care of business."

I got my blood test results today. at 4 weeks and 1 day my hcg was 38 and my prog was 8.9. Do these sound really low?
I don't know a whole lot about it, but I would guess yes. Just a guess.

no your levels are fine! you can go to http://www.bobrow.net/kimberly/birth/hcglevels.html it will show you a chart of normal levels in single pregnancey and in twin gestation.
I'm assuming you'll do another beta hcg in a few days? It's not really the first number that matters - there's lots of variation depending on when you implant. What's more important is that the number doubles in the right amount of time (I think it's every 2-3 days). You're probably fine. You'll know more after your next blood draw. Good luck!

Like the PP indicated - the first beta number doesn't matter as much as the second. You'll want to have another beta done 48 hours after the first for the best results.

My 1st beta was only 13 at 4weeks....and have doubled since!...I'm now waiting on my 5week beta levels to come back!
Have them test you again, just to make sure they double!
Lots of sticky baby dust!
Thank you everyone I feel a lot better! You would think I would be a bit more relaxed with this being my 3rd child. But for some odd reason I feel like I am testing fate with a 3rd since I have never had any issues with my other two pregnancies. I know that sounds strange! I go back tomorrow for some more blood work.
Sticky baby dust to everyone!
As long as your beta is over 25, you are considered pregnant. Everyone is different depending on how their body reacts, when implantation took place, how many babies there are etc., so numbers kind of vary. What really matters is that they double right so the next beta is the one that can put your mind at ease more ;)

Actress Madhuri Dixit, who plays an empowered woman in her forthcoming "Gulaab Gang", believes that in order to ensure women's safety, the government should form policies that are in sync with time.
Responding to questions from the media here Friday while talking about her character Rajjo, a "crusader and empowered woman", Madhuri also batted for educating men.
"I don't have those kind of information, the political knowledge and information but of course, they have to make the new agenda, they have to do everything new, they have to look at society today and then make rules accordingly," she said at an event to promote "Gulaab Gang".
"Men should also be educated because education leads to information and it also changes perception about others," she said.
"Gulaab Gang" is directed by Soumik Sen and produced by Anubhav Sinha. The film also features Huma Qureshi and Juhi Chawla.
Madhuri revealed she channelised her angst towards society for bringing Rajjo to life. The way her character stands up against injustice on screen, Madhuri said, should happen in real life.
"Well I didn't have to work very hard, because there are a lot of things you read about, you hear and I think everybody feels that anger because of everything that's happening in the society...
"All I had to do is direct that anger and channelise it and say this is what the character 'Rajjo' stands for and this is what should happen in the country and this what I want to see happening with the women here.
"I just wanted to channelise the energy and 'Rajjo' was born," she said.
"Gulaab Gang" is scheduled for a March 7 release.

Great price for a product I use all the time!!

I have Celiac Disease and must buy various flours to replace wheat in my baking. It gets pricey, so I am always on the lookout for the better deal. This is less than my local supermarket or natural foods store.
Great alternative

Using this in place of flour or corn starch works great in stew or sauces. It is also helpful as a coating for fish.

better idea return it and buy directly from apple. they have the est return policy i know.
it s worth the extra effort. i had 4 replacements so trust me on this one.
jon01721 Apr 9, 2013 1:30 PM
in response to obikenobi
Although if Apple will process the replacement themselves then it saves 100 miles of driving!
obikenobi Apr 9, 2013 1:32 PM
in response to jon01721
in the netherlands if you buy directly from apple they deliver the imac and come get it if you need a replacement, regardless of the amount of times you have to replace it. so yeah all my apple purchases qill come directly from apple self.
Shane Hirschman Apr 9, 2013 1:43 PM
in response to obikenobi
I really wish Apple would chime in or make a statement regarding this issue. There seems to be enough instances of this particular issue to warrant further investigation.
I'm still experiencing issues on my iMac and have been outside of my 14 day return policy. So now I'll have to rely on AppleCare support.
What really bothers me is having to deal with taking the iMac to an Apple Store and then deal without my computer for who knows how long.
Worst yet, I do not want to have to deal with reconfiguring all my files and settings. Such a headache... and I work full-time Monday through Friday, so getting to an Apple store before they close is another matter too.
I tried adjusting the power cord, per Obikenobi's suggestion, to no avail. Still getting pops, so I'd have to rely a new power cord or replacement machine it seems.
obikenobi Apr 9, 2013 1:45 PM
in response to Shane Hirschman
oh no so you didn t ask for a replacement or did the problem appear after 14 days ?
pthe power cord was a temporary solution. the pop came back after 2/ 3 days of no pops.
and i agree that apple should look into this its absurd.. and i can give every one e advice to ask for compensation.
ps i got a total of 4 replacement, before receiving a totally good one. but now i have one i have to say it's an awesome machine.( when it works accordingly without damage.)
smiklich Apr 9, 2013 2:28 PM
in response to obikenobi
I just got off the phone with support,They agreed that it was some sort of hardware issue and advised me to bring it to there local authorized computer repair shop for evaluation....Just what I want my new Imac taken apart already .I am just going to live with it maybe it will go away I am not hauling this computer all over creation do do there diagnosing for them.I am completly unhappy with this new Imac .I loved my old 24 inch and that was a great machine with no problems but this one I am not happy with ....But whatever im done I will just wait till what ever causes the static fails then bring it in for repair .
jon01721 Apr 9, 2013 4:20 PM
in response to smiklich
So they were unwilling to replace it? They tried to convince me to have the local Apple store deal with it but even the store said "Forget it, replace it", and I did. If possible it might be worth speaking with them once more and telling them you want it replaced. They'll send you the box in the mail and you just turn around and send it back.
Then again, if you've just plain had it and can live with the noise then that's always an option. Wouldn't blame you, but that's a lott cash to put up with a hardware issue. Best of luck with it!

Have the machine about 2 weeks and have noticed this issue since it was first turned on.
It does seem to become less as time goes on, but maybe I don't notice it as much when music and video are playing.
I don't believe the issue affects the performance, but I am curious how long it will last for or if it will go away at all. I really don't want to have it returned as this is a replacement machine for a previously faulty 2011 imac. I was without a working machine for over a month so to finally get the new one and now have it acting up isn't a nice situation.
The issue is definitely related to the display. Wether its is the adhesive around the edge that keeps the screen attached to the body, or actually electronics I don't know.
I have no more to add, but clearly a lot of people are suffering with this so Apple, please give us something official soon.
Shane Hirschman Apr 24, 2013 4:12 PM
in response to obikenobi
Yeah, I noticed the issue within the first week, but this was after I already transferred over my files and settings.
Though, I'm sure the issue was there as soon I first turned the machine on, I just may have not noticed it initially.
So, since I already went through the process of getting my computer optimized with settings, etc. It will become a major inconvenience for me, as my work hours overlap with the Apple store hours. I wish they did house calls during the evening or weekend... So they can just swap my hard drive to a new iMac that won't have these audio popping issues.
Des, it is a serious issue. Apple hasn't chimed in yet to address the issue... and I feel it would be the right thing to do. Apple should also pinpoint the problem, so I won't have to go through 4 machines, to finally get a working model, like obi can attest to.
What we do know is that this problem seems to only be affecting the 27inch model with the fusion drive.
obikenobi Apr 25, 2013 2:51 AM
in response to Shane Hirschman
So the problem is still there hh? Apple should do something already.. im happy mine is good now though. 2weeks since my 4th replacement and haven't heard a single pop crackle or snap.
But im never buying first gen new designs from apple again.. to much problems as turned out for alot of ppl.
Apple should've made more time to search for these bugs in the new iMac.
Hope you all get it sorted out.. without to much frustration.
jon01721 Apr 25, 2013 5:00 AM
in response to obikenobi
Haven't had any noise from my replacement. No clue what the problem is/was with these systems but I think the speaker issue are reporting and the localized pop I had were different issues. Whatever these case, these machines are way too pricey to put up with those sounds and Apple needs to step up and figure this out. Lots of reports of problems with the hardware and scratching/smudging on systems lately, time to shake up the QA/QC processes.

Same here.
I bought this new iMac on May 18th on the French on-line Apple Store:
Processeur quadricœur Intel Core i7 cadencé à 3,4 GHz, Turbo Boost jusqu'à 3,9 GHz • 8 Go de mémoire SDRAM DDR3 à 1 600 MHz - 2 x 4 Go • Fusion Drive de 1 To • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX avec 2 Go de mémoire GDDR5 • Magic Trackpad • Clavier sans fil Apple (Français) & Guide de l'utilisateur (Français) • Kit d'accessoires
I noticed the issue immediatley but I've waited few days to see if it'd desappeared...but the problem is still there.
So today I've asked for a replacement. Apple has acknowledged, so I'm waiting for the replacement...
I noticed that the problem get worse when I change the screen brightness...
Let's hope the new one does not have this problem....
Piggi79 Jun 14, 2013 2:12 AM

The new one is OK!
And Apple refound me 100 euros for the trouble (whithout asking!).

Hi Guys,
I have brand new iMac 27 bought on 3rd June 2013 (little while ago) and I have the same problem and it is really bothering me. My machine makes periodically crack/snappy sounds somewhere on the right side. More it is turned on, longer the time period is, but still after being on for long time it makes that same bothering sound over and over. I do not want to work always with headphones on. Please please help.
What should I do? Is this general problem or it involves only small number of computers?
Thank you very much for help.

Kathy Ireland stepped out from behind the lectern. She took the microphone with her. Was this going to be one of those defining moments when years from now people would still say that was "the Ireland at NEIT episode?" What might the woman who appeared in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues – and who is also an actress, author and chair, CEO and chief designer of Kathy Ireland Worldwide – do?
Was she going to model the cape that moments before had been draped around her neck as she received an honorary doctor of humane letters degree Sunday at New England Institute of Technology's commencement ceremony at the Rhode Island Convention Center? Might she do something even more daring?
Whatever was going to happen, the news photographers weren't going to miss it. They trained their telephoto lenses on Ireland. The 1,175 grads and their families and friends craned their necks to see the stage and the screens showing Ireland bigger than life. Ireland had everyone's attention. She's good at grabbing attention. She twisted to demonstrate how she would model a swimsuit.
Click the link to read entire Warwick Beacon story, Ireland tells grads how to design lives for success – Warwick Beacon.
Ireland is chairwoman, chief executive officer and chief designer of kathy ireland Worldwide, which markets 15,000 products. Forbes Magazine says her company has annual merchandise sales of $2 billion. Institute officials also characterized her as a "powerful advocate for women and children in need."
The school gave Ireland and Cheryl Merchant honorary doctor of humane letter degrees. Merchant is president and chief executive officer of Rhode Island's Hope Global, a 131-year-old textile manufacturing company that employs 700 people around the world. "If I can do it, you can do it," Ireland told the standing-room-only audience at the Rhode Island Convention Center.

"One thing that really helped me after the Career Expo was writing those thank you letters to the companies for taking the time to talk to me. In addition once I received a one on one interview I brought in nice copies of my resume, references, and letters of recommendations from my teachers. The companies really appreciated the extra effort and plus it gives them something to look at while interviewing. Thanks again for everything." – Jennifer Adamek, CBYT student who received 2 job offers as a result of attending the Career Expo event.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jack Groh (401) 952-0886
EAST GREENWICH, RI – New England Tech's 2014 commencement address will be delivered by world-class entrepreneur Kathy Ireland who is Chair, CEO and Chief Designer of kathy ireland Worldwide®. Ireland is one of the most influential and successful people in design and marketing, and is also a powerful advocate for women and children in need. A former supermodel who combined her fashion know-how, compassion for others, and common sense ideas to build a billion dollar brand, Ireland markets more than 15,000 products with designs in fashion, weddings, home and office. On Sunday, May 4, 2014 Kathy Ireland will share her insight about success with New England Institute of Technology graduates and their families and friends. The commencement ceremony will be held at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence beginning at 11 a.m.
Ireland appeared in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues in the 1980s and 1990s. Her first featured cover remains the top selling edition. She has acted in movies including the comedies Unnecessary Roughness, and Loaded Weapon I, and in dozens of television shows including the popular Melrose Place. She has written books for children and for busy moms and recently started her own publishing company. But it is the kathy ireland Worldwide® brand that has brought her the most success. With a focus on designing practical and affordable products, fulfilling her mission statement of "finding solutions for families, especially busy moms," Ireland has built a fashion empire. In 2012, the former supermodel graced the cover of Forbes Magazine, which nicknamed her "Supermogul" for her success.
Ireland is committed to "putting people ahead of profits." She is an advocate for women's health issues and for the care and treatment of Down's syndrome. She is an activist for veterans' issues, global poverty eradication and education and family issues. She also supports numerous nonprofits including the Elizabeth Taylor HIV/AIDS Foundation and Feed the Children. When earthquakes hit Haiti, she quietly traveled there to help out in the orphanages. Ireland will receive an honorary doctor of humane letters during commencement for her work to improve the lives of others.
New England Institute of Technology will also confer an honorary doctor of humane letters on nationally-recognized business leader Cheryl Merchant for her contributions to the betterment of Rhode Island. Merchant is President and Chief Executive Officer of Rhode Island's Hope Global. Known for her ability to motivate, inspire and lead innovative teams, Merchant has transformed the 131-year-old Rhode Island textile manufacturing company. Under her leadership, Hope Global has nearly tripled its revenue, product lines and market share in the automotive, industrial and defense industries. Merchant has accomplished this while focusing on teamwork, employee success and community involvement.
Hope Global employs 700 people around the world. The headquarters and largest operation is located in Rhode Island, with smaller operations in Mexico, the Czech Republic and China, and engineering sales offices in Detroit and Brazil.
Merchant got her start in the automotive field, working her way into supervisory positions at GM, Ford and Mazda, and eventually managing international operations for Lear Corporation in Mexico. She brings global experience to Hope Global, and has integrated helping others into the company philosophy. Charities that provide assistance to children and women in need are the focus at Hope. So are mentoring and training programs that help employees advance in their chosen fields.
Merchant is an active member of the Northern Rhode Island Chamber of Commerce, a Rhode Island Commodore, a trustee of the Rhode Island Economic Policy Council, a trustee of Bryant University, and a member of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce. She also serves on the Governor's Workforce Board, which supports programs that bring business and education together. Merchant was recently named the 2014 New England Business Woman of the Year at Bryant University's Women's Summit.
This year marks New England Institute of Technology's 73rd commencement ceremony. More than a thousand students will receive associate, bachelor's and master's degrees.

I just put together a little commuting highlight reel from my helmet cam videos for 2009. After watching it several times I realized that it might be useful in loosening some of the A&S sphincters about useful cycling techniques that are...(ahem)...not 100% kosher.
Keep in mind the cultural aspects of my home town (New Orleans, USA). Bicycles here are an expression of freedom. We can pretty much do whatever we want to. So even though laws exist, cyclists are waaaay under the radar. Lets even say we are OFF the radar. We all run red lights and stop signs, motorists expect it, and for the most part accept and receive this behavior well.
My favorite moment is 2:26 - 2:30 where my camera picks up an unknown cyclist and pedestrian crossing against a red, and then a contraflow cyclist about to run the red in the opposite direction. SOP around here.
I am happy to be 51 years old. I started riding my bike downtown at 15 and figured out (in one day) that stopping for a red light endangered me unnecessarily. I run roughly 16,000 red lights and stop signs each year without problems. Enjoy the video evidence.
This vid also makes a pretty good clinic for bicycle lane positioning in downtown grids. It is my hope that someday lawmakers will realize that bikes are not cars and discard the silly laws that diminish the usefulness of the bicycle in areas of heavy traffic congestion.

"Everybody Knows We Are Serious"
An interview with Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras.
L.W.: But your GDP has shrunk 20 percent in the past five years. Isn't it slated to go down another 7 percent this year? How do you break this cycle?
A.S.: You start increasing the GDP through liquidity methods, through structural funds, through privatization, and through investments.
L.W.: Foreign direct investment?
A.S.: It is very important. There are many people abroad who want to help, who want to invest. In the past, they used to come here, and they found a negative environment. Today, instead of red tape, we will give them the red-carpet treatment. We want them to realize that this is a land of opportunity. It always has been so, but we never allowed foreign investment to come into this country. … We made it so difficult for them. They got sick and tired of it.
L.W.: Was that partly to protect Greece's own businessmen?
A.S.: It was a culture that business is something bad—it was a leftist-oriented psychology. We have to break this. We are pro-business. We want entrepreneurs to come to Greece, see the opportunities, and invest. We have to capitalize on tourism and the maritime industry. The previous governments abolished the Ministry of Tourism and the Ministry of Maritime Affairs. It is as if Saudi Arabia abolished the Ministry of Oil.
L.W.: Do you think the Greek people will rally behind you?
A.S.: I think that people are ready to take that leap forward with us, yes.
L.W.: Are you ready to do it even if it is not politically popular—even if you get defeated?
A.S.: Absolutely. It's not me. It's not my party. It's not my friends. It's my country, and I don't play with my country. I won't do that.
L.W.: Are you saying you can't just have austerity alone?
A.S.: Exactly.
L.W.: Does the troika understand that?
A.S.: I think the troika and everybody else understands it after seeing that Greece has been in recession for six consecutive years.
L.W.: Do you think they are willing to go easier on your country?
A.S.: Expectations were that we were doomed. It would be a matter for the Europeans to solve as to whether to accept us or not, with very high chances of us being kicked out of the eurozone. I cannot allow a third party to decide on my country's future. I have to make sure that we are changing things so this alternative for the Europeans is not there. Some of them would love to have a Greek exit. I do not want Greece to become the negative paradigm for the others—i.e., "make sure you follow exactly what we tell you, otherwise you will be like Greece."
We have to make sure we do not leave the eurozone and that we are safely within Europe. Many leaders abroad today realize this is the best not only for Greece but also for Europe. The consequences are unknown as to what would happen in Europe were Greece to leave. What would be the reaction of the markets? They would hit the next nation.
L.W.: They would hit Spain?
A.S.: They'd hit some country for sure. Nobody knows the consequences. But I cannot rest assured that since the others know this, maybe they will not kick us out. I have to make sure this does not happen. You don't play with death, and this would be deadly for Greece.
