BROOKLYN - Police say the baby whose body was found in a bag of a Brooklyn teenager caught shoplifting was born alive and then asphyxiated.
The NYPD has not released information about how this was determined. The medical examiner's office says the initial autopsy could not determine the cause of death.
According to police, 17-year-old Tiana Rodriguez told officers she was carrying the fetus because she had delivered the baby the day before and didn't know what to do.
READ MORE: Brooklyn Crime Stories
Detectives say Rodriguez and a friend were stopped by a security guard at a Manhattan Victoria's Secret store. The guard searched one of the girl's bags and made the discovery.
Both teens have been arrested on charges of petit larceny and possession of stolen property. The girl believed to have given birth was hospitalized, and the other questioned by police.
Authorities say more serious charges could be filed.

OMG. You are this amazing... and you like Dragon Age. You are officially my new idol.
I love this character and how you painted her! She's my favorite!
I loved Dragon Age. She was one of my favorite characters. I did the Leliana relationship and regretted it
OMG Morrigan *-*
Sadly, I've never played Dragon Age, but she kinda looks like the Demon Hunter from Diablo |||
Sexy and stunning,the colours are just fantastic. The slight fading of the crows wings is a nice touch.
Really good composition and mood of colors, really love this one.
very nice work
beautiful work, great background, great character, great atmosphere.
THis is Really Great!
Amazing work! Morrigan is my favorite character from Origins.
Oooh what program do you use?
A combination of Morrigan from Dragon Age, summoning crows a la the mythological Morrigan? Genius!! Plus, the art itself is just so haunting with the mists. I think I found a new BG for my computer!
Oooooo, very nice!
Awesome wallpaper material. Thanks!
Superb work.
Superb work.
Morrigan was a wonderful character, enriched further by Claudia Black's amazing voiceover ability.

Wow! That looks totally awesome!

Thanks! I'll look into those areas as well.
I would also take a close look at 121 early, 151-155 early, 141-145 early, in that order. To be honest with you I hunt 151-155 early. It's a great area to hunt with lots of deer. If your a road hunter it will be tough. The herd in poor shape and numbers are way down. I don't care what fish and game say its half of what it used to be 5 years ago. But there is some real monster bucks there but it takes some snow and cold weather to get them moving and some work to find them. I've hunted the same spot for 5 years and if we draw this year were relocating our hunt to a new spot to try and locate better numbers. I hope this helps. Take care.
Thanks for the info! I would definitely be looking to the remote areas. I was planning on backpacking in the jarbridge wilderness. That is some of why I was looking to the early hunts. Like to hunt as alone as I can. I have 2 nonresident points going in this year.
Hey. I've hunted that area back when I was a kid. 1400+ tags for early and a 2-1 draw odds I can't believe you haven't drawn yet! There looks like alot of 4 point bucks taken there too. If you draw that tag plan on see a crap ton of people and being scared outta your wits from fools shooting at everything that moves. There are some nice buck taken there very year. Late is always better IMO I like the snow and there can be alot in those areas. There is some wilderness areas in 072 that I bet there will be less people around and were you can get some good glassing in.I would also take a close look at 079,91 there are some higher mt ranges there that will weed out the road hunters and give you a better chance and a decent buck. I'll talk to a couple guys I know hunt there and see if I can get some specifics for you. Also I'll look over the harvest reports and see if I can find a better area for you to burn your points in.

I know it's not unusual for albuterol to cause irritability and emotional outbursts, but I am wondering how long these side effects can last once one is no longer taking the medication. After using albuterol as part of her preventative plan (which I was not all for, but which we did because it worked in conjunction with Singulair and Alvesco to keep my daughter's asthma flare-ups at bay) for probably 6 weeks, we weaned my daughter off of it only to have her come down with a cold and cough about a week later (of course!). She was using albuterol in her nebulizer 2 -3 times a day for about 12 days, and has now been off of it completely for 2 days. She is still "so sad" and very irritable, quick to fly off the handle, and anxious (scared to even go to the bathroom by herself). Is it possible that she has been on albuterol for so long, her body is kind of coming down from it now that she has gone without it for a few days? Is she experiencing something similar to withdrawals? Could it be that the medication is still in her system triggering these behaviors? Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. And yes, we are going to ask about switching to xopenex at our next appointment.
Albuterol side effects
Comments (10)
My daughter takes singulair and albuterol. I read online that singulair can make them moody. My daughter has been on the singulair almost 1 month but we have not experienced any side effects. She only has the albuterol in the puffer 'as needed'...for us that is only once a week or so.

Yes, I know about the side effects with Singulair, but she's been on that for several months now, and we've had some normal, happy times, so I don't think it's that. Whenever she uses the nebulizer with albuterol, we always notice these kinds of changes in her behavior. Additionally, our allergist said that if we were going to notice any issues with Singulair, it would have happened the first week she was on it, and that wasn't the case. So, I really have to think the albuterol is the culprit here. Jlmallo, if you were told it can take up to a week for albuterol to leave her system, even though that seems like a long time, I'm going to believe it's probably true. It's been my experience (and probably yours), that different doctors say different things, and probably all of it is true for at least someone. My daughter must be that someone with albuterol. SO....only 5 more days of madness!!!! UGH!

Thanks for your comment. My husband is starting to believe that it's the singulair moreso than the albuterol, and your comment definitely sways me to think that way too, especially since it's now been a week since she last had albuterol and, though she is a bit calmer, my daughter is still having issues. Did you experience highs and lows while on singulair, meaning did you have days or weeks without issue? We have had happy times over the past 8 months while on singulair, which is why I figured it must be something else, but my husband claims it's the ebb and flow, highs and lows. Just curious if you experienced the same.

Man hit with Taser twice before being charged with DUI
Published: Friday, October 4, 2013 at 1:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 4, 2013 at 1:15 p.m.
OCALA - A 31-year-old man was hit with a Taser twice during a traffic stop late Thursday night and later was charged with DUI and resisting arrest with violence.
En route to a call in Dunnellon, Sheriff's Office deputy John Lightle saw a vehicle drifting in and out of traffic, including into the opposite lane and oncoming traffic, nearly hitting other vehicles. He stopped the errant vehicle and detected a strong odor of alcohol coming from the driver's breath.
The driver, Richard Burton, told the deputy he was driving because his girlfriend was cheating on him and he was upset, the arrest report notes.
Lightle called for backup.
Burton agreed to perform a field sobriety exercise and, during the procedure, quickly moved to his vehicle. The deputies and Burton scuffled and he refused to place his hands behind his back. One of the deputies hit Burton with a Taser, after which he complied and put his hands behind his back.
In Burton's vehicle were three unopened Steel Reserve cans of beer and a pit bull. Animal services were called to take the dog.
On his way to the jail, Burton told the deputy he had a concealed weapons permit and was fortunate he did not have his gun with him.
At the jail, Burton blew a .216 on a breath alcohol test. He refused to blow a second time. The state legal limit at which someone is presumed to be intoxicated is .08.

Oz: 100+ years of movie magic
"Oz, the Great and Powerful" is just the latest and costliest interpretation on film of the land over the rainbow.
L. Frank Baum, the author of the 1900 book that started it all, discovered trick photography on a trip abroad in 1908 and developed a show of slides and stop-action animation covering scenes from the first four of his 14 Oz books. He took "The Fairlogue and Radio-Plays" on the road, complete with orchestra, and played the Midwest and East before closing just before Christmas in New York City.
The effort was a financial failure and as a result, Baum turned over his film rights to film pioneer William Nicholas Selig, who produced four silent one-reelers in 1910.
By then, Baum had moved his family to Hollywood, and while writing more Oz books, he founded the Oz Film Manufacturing Co. with friends from the Los Angeles Athletic Club. They underwrote "His Majesty, the Scarecrow of Oz" in 1914 and several live-action movies.
"These were big lavish productions, far above the usual 'flickers' of the period, each with an original score composed by (Louis F.) Gottschalk," says Michael Patrick Hearn in "The Annotated Wizard of Oz." But they were flops, as well, and the Oz studio was sold to Universal. Baum died in 1919.
Read the UT's review of the new movie and about San Diego's Oz connections.
In 1925 one of Baum's sons tried his hand at Oz-movie making in a silent picture treatment of "The Wizard" starring Oliver Hardy as the Tin Woodman.
"It was a dreary hodgepodge of chases and slapstick, totally lacking the magic of Baum's book," Hearn said.
After a few minor cartoons (and a run at the franchise by Walt Disney) came the 1939 MGM classic, the treatment that set in many people's minds the look, feel and story arc of Oz.
At $2 million, it was MGM's most expensive film to date. It had sound, color, "Over the Rainbow" and memorable lines that land on "Jeopardy." It didn't make a profit on its first release but in subsequent showings, annual TV screenings and on videotape, DVD and Blu-ray, it's become a cinematic classic, the most watched movie of all time, according to the Library of Congress.
Still, other producers saw pay dirt down the Yellow Brick Road and followed up with cartoons, spinoffs, TV pilots and mini-series and big Hollywood productions.
"The Wiz" in 1978 was an adaptation of the Broadway all-black urban musical of 1975. Diana Ross was Dorothy, Michael Jackson, the Scarecrow. "Return to Oz" in 1985 was a Disney sequel, based on Baum's second and third books, "The Marvelous Land of Oz" and "Ozma of Oz." Neither movie hit pay dirt.
Since the MGM version is still under copyright, Disney and other movie makers have to steer clear of such iconic inventions as the ruby slippers (they were silver in Baum's book) and Glinda in her pink traveling bubble (the new Disney take is a transparent bubble).
Watch the clever opening title sequence.
You won't hear reprises of "Over the Rainbow," Judy Garland's signature song. Mariah Carey brings us "Almost Home" and composer Danny Elfman offers, "The Munchkin Welcome Song."
Look for the "Herd of a Different Color" -- several horses with bright, colorful spots shown in one background shot. Baum had no horses in Oz (except the Sawhorse, brought to life in Book 2). But MGM had the "horse of a different color" pull Dorothy in a carriage when she arrives at the Emerald City; it changes color every few moments.
A half-dozen other Oz movies are said to be in the works, including an adaptation of "Wicked," the Broadway musical, and a cartoon movie of "Dorothy of Oz, " based on a book by Baum's great-grandson, Roger S. Baum; "Glee's" Lea Michele has been signed to voice Dorothy.

Read an Excerpt
It was morning, and the new sun sparkled gold across the ripples of a gentle sea.
A mile from shore a fishing boat chummed the water, and the word for Breakfast Flock flashed through the air, till a crowd of a thousand seagulls came to dodge and fight for bits of food. it was another busy day beginning.
But way off alone, out by himself beyond boat and shore, Jonathan Livingston Seagull was practicing. A hundred feet in the sky he lowered his webbed feet, lifted his beak, and strained to hold a painful hard twisting curve through his wings. The curve meant that he would fly slowly, and now he slowed until the wind was a whisper in his face, until the ocean stood still beneath him. He narrowed his eyes in fierce concentration, held his breath, forced one . . . single . . . more . . . inch . . . of . . . curve. . . . Then his feathers ruffled, he stalled and fell.
Seagulls, as you know, never falter never stall. To stall in the air is for them disgrace and it is dishonor.
But Jonathan Livingston Seagull, unashamed, stretching his wings again in that trembling hard curveslowing, slowing, and stalling once morewas no ordinary bird.
Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flighthow to get from shore to food and back again. For most gulls, it is not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight. More than anything else, Jonathan Livingston Seagull loved to fly.
This kind of thinking, he found, is not the way to make one's self popular with other birds. Even his parents were dismayed as Jonathan spent whole days alone, making hundreds of low-level glides,experimenting.
He didn't know why, for instance, but when he flew at altitudes less than half his wingspan above the water, he could stay in the air longer, with less effort. His glides ended not with the usual feet-down splash into the sea, but with a long flat wake as he touched the surface with his feet tightly streamlined against his body. When he began sliding in to feet-up landings on the beach, then pacing the length of his slide in the sand, his parents were very much dismayed indeed.
"Why, Jon, why?" his mother asked. "Why is it so hard to be like the rest of the flock, Jon? Why can't you leave low flying to the pelicans, the albatross? Why don't you eat? Son, you're bone and feathers!"
I don't mind being bone and feathers, mom. I just want to know what I can do in the air and what I can't, that's all. I just want to know."
"See here, Jonathan," said his father, not unkindly. "Winter isn't far away. Boats will be few, and the surface fish will be swimming deep. If you must study, then study food, and how to get it. This flying business is all very well, but you can't eat a glide, you know. Don't you forget that the reason you fly is to eat."
Jonathan nodded obediently. For the next few days he tried to behave like the other gulls; he really tried, screeching and fighting with the flock around the piers and fishing boats, diving on scraps of fish and bread. But he couldn't make it work.
It's all so pointless, he thought, deliberately dropping a hard-won anchovy to a hungry old gull chasing him. I could be spending all this time learning to fly. There's so much to learn!
It wasn't long before Jonathan Gull was off by himself again, far out at sea, hungry, happy, learning.
The subject was speed, and in a week's practice he learned more about speed than the fastest gull alive.
From a thousand feet, flapping his wings as hard as he could, he pushed over into a blazing steep dive toward the waves, and learned why seagulls don't make blazing steep powerdives. In just six seconds he was moving seventy miles per hour, the speed at which one's wing goes unstable on the upstroke.
Time after time it happened. Careful as he was, working at the very peak of his ability, he lost control at high speed.
Climb to a thousand feet. Full power straight ahead first, then push over, flapping, to a vertical dive. Then, every time, his left wing stalled on an upstroke, he'd roll violently left, stall his right wing recovering, and flick like fire into a wild tumbling spin to the right.
He couldn't be careful enough on that upstroke. Ten times he tried, and all ten times, as he passed through seventy miles per hour, he burst into a churning mass of feathers, out of control, crashing down into the water.
The key, he thought at last, dripping wet, must be to hold the wings still at high speedsto flap up to fifty and then hold the wings still.
From two thousand feet he tried again, rolling into his dive, beak straight down, wings full out and stable from the moment he passed fifty miles per hour. It took tremendous strength, but it worked. in ten seconds he had blurred through ninety miles per hour. Jonathan had set a world speed record for seagulls!
But victory was short-lived. The instant he began his pullout, the instant he changed the angle of his wings, he snapped into that same terrible uncontrolled disaster, and at ninety miles per hour it hit him like dynamite. Jonathan Seagull exploded in midair and smashed down into a brick-hard sea.
When he came to, it was well after dark, and he floated in moonlight on the surface of the ocean. His wings were ragged bars of lead, but the weight of failure was even heavier on his back. He wished, feebly, that the weight could be just enough to drag him gently down to the bottom, and end it all.
As he sank low in the water, a strange hollow voice sounded within him. There's no way around it. I am a seagull. I am limited by my nature. If I were meant to learn so much about flying, I'd have charts for brains. I I were mean to fly at speed, I'd have a falcon's short wings, and live on mice instead of fish.

text: White House: 'War on terrorism' is over on Aug 6th http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/aug/06/white-house-war-terrorism-over/?feat=home_headlines It's official. The U.S. is no longer engaged in a "war on terrorism." Neither is it fighting "jihadists" or in a "global war." President Obama's top homeland security and counterterrorism official took all three terms off the table of acceptable words inside the White House during a speech Thursday at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank. "The President does not describe this as a 'war on terrorism,'" said John Brennan, head of the White House homeland security office, who outlined a "new way of seeing" the fight against terrorism. The only terminology that Mr. Brennan said the administration is using is that the U.S. is "at war with al Qaeda." "We are at war with al Qaeda," he said. "We are at war with its violent extremist allies who seek to carry on al Qaeda's murderous agenda." Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in March that the administration was not using the term "war on terror" but no specific directive had come from the White House itself. Mr. Obama himself used the term "war on terror" on Jan. 23, his fourth day as president, but has not used it since. Mr. Brennan's speech was aimed at outlining ways in which the Obama administration intends to undermine the "upstream" factors that create an environment in which terrorists are bred. The president's adviser talked about increasing aid to foreign governments for building up their militaries and social and democratic institutions, but provided few details about how the White House will do that. He was specific about ways in which Mr. Obama believes words influence the way America prosecutes the fight against terrorism. Mr. Brennan said that to say the U.S. is fighting "jihadists" is wrongheaded because it is using "a legitimate term, 'jihad,' meaning to purify oneself or to wage a holy struggle for a moral goal" which "risks giving these murderers the religious legitimacy they desperately seek but in no way deserve." But now it back when Obama's poll numbers are crashing Obama Spokesman: White House can't under resource 'most important part of the 'war on terror'... * White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs used the term "war on terror" at today's press conference. ==================================== The many faces of Obama continues. I expect the the lefties of the board to show some disgust finally. Obama is using the evil war for a diversion from his failures here at home.

Ok so I work with this absolutely gorgeous and very charming man at my job. Over the years we have come to be fairly good friends and spent some time hanging out. Eventually one thing led to another and tada.......well you know how that story ends. I have the biggest crush on this guy, however he is the president of all things named DOG when it comes to women. He knows he's fine and he definetly doesn't deny being a dog. I don't really want to be in a relationship with him because I know the type of person he is, but everytime he is anywhere near me at work I feel like my feet are off the floor. I wish I didn't feel any kind of attraction for him, but its so damn hard not to be when he looks that good. Britney Spears' song "Womanizer" comes to mind everytime I see him. I feel so stupid for having a whopping crush on a guy that is obviously no good for any woman. Another thing is he works regularly on my unit so we are around each other regularly. Do you think its wrong for me to be attracted to a mega dog? How the hell do I turn the crush factor off and pretty much try to ignore him without completely ruining the friendship side of the relationship. He is a really cool guy as a perso, but when it comes to woman he is all over the place.
Big Crush, Wrong kinda man.
Missing my angel baby born at 16 weeks 04/04/12.
Oh wow...I don't have any idea how to turn off the crush factor other than thinking about how you wouldn't want your son to be like him or if you had daughter to be with someone like that.
How does he treat you since that incident? Is he rude or just completely, "It is what it is" kind of attitude? How do you feel he is a friend to you? Do you really feel he offers some value to your life? What does he bring to the table in the way of friendship?
Just thinking of questions that might help you figure what he really has to offer as a friend...
Our children are watching us live and what we are shouts louder than anything we say. -Wilfred A. Peterson
No he's not rude to me at all. If he was I would never talk to him, plus he knows better.He tells people that we are brethren's(Jamaican for close friends). We talk about life, he's shared parts of his personal life with me. He is a single dad as well, although his actions aren't really ones I'd want my son to have. We just basically shoot the breeze.

Yikes. I don't envy you.
The only way I know how to help that one is to not work around him any longer so the feelings have a natural tendancy to disapate. It isn't by far a cure, but the distance certainly helps. He's in your face daily so this one will be a hard one to beat.
I'm curious what you'll do.

April, stay friends with him, but let things lead to other things! Just try not to let yourself get all mushy over him. Keep the dog-traits in sight to keep your head on straight, but girl, I'd let him womanize me ;)
~ the more you know, the less you need ~
hahahaha you guys are hilarious. Believe me my doggy radar is on 100% and I definetly don't chase him around the building, but he sure as hell follows me around when he's there. He told me the other day that its going to be a challenge for us working on the same floor, to which I told him that he could leave. He told me he wasn't leaving and I said neither am I. It would be much easier if he worked on another unit, but NOOOOOOOOO, has to be on my floor. Im not complaining, just trying to be as professional as possible while at work and all the big wigs are walking around. Some of my friends at work know I had a huge crush on him a few years ago, now that I've spent time with him and see how he can be I no longer want to have that relationship, but the flirting is something I can't always help. Usually when I'm around him I don't get all touchy feely, I usually do a very good job of pretending he's not around, but then he always ends up wherever I am. It's exciting and annoying at the same time. Is it wrong for me to want to pet him a little lol??? After I had my son I vowed never to get into another casual situation with another man, but this dude takes the cake. Ughhhh damn men always complicating things!!

LOL let me just say, if that guy were around me, I woulda wanted at him long ago. Don't these guys realize single moms go without?!?!?!? How dare they look hot when they don't deserve to! JERK!
You pet him girl and you're toast and you know it! BEWARE. He knows what he's up to. He wants some. Consider that you jump him, you're also jumping many other women's dna. Ewwww! AND not to mention it isn't worth risking your life for a fling.
Remind yourself this. You deserve someone that has eyes for only you. Remember PS I Love You? You want a guy with a passion for his gal only.
I know you already know this, but REMIND yourself, what you see is smoke and mirrors. He isnt' the man you ultimately desire. Sure he wants you. But he also wants others. He's a walking temptation, planted there to test you. This guy could be the best thing that ever crossed your path. You now have the perfect practice on how to kick these types of guys to the curb. Daily! One day he'll get it and move onto another victim. But he's picking up your signals and he knows he's getting to you.
Write 'smoke and mirrors' on your desk and read it before you know he'll be in front of you. It's my bet slowly over time you'll start to have a different mind set about him.
This is where your morals have to make a judgement call.
Donna & 10 yr old Cody
Home decor at it's funkiest...
Thanks Donna, very good answer. I will make Smoke and Mirrors my daily mantra. You hit the nail on the head when you said he's a walking temptation. My goal is just to be his friend without feeling like I want to jump on him everytime I'm around him. HEHEHE gotta love life's little trials and temptations.

I think the biggest part of my problem is that I haven't had any kind of interaction with a man in well over a year so all my hormones are on HIGH!!!! The attention that I get from him masks that loneliness I've been feeling. Hopefully bigger and better comes my way this year and I don't have to worry about temptation anymore.
Melissa I've heard the men over in the falls are double the trouble. I will have to make the drive and then you'll have to blindfold me for the weekend so I don't look and get into trouble.

Ugh... I had a semi-relationship with a co-worker, thank God he worked FAR across the building from me when he was working in the office, but we spent alot of time e-mailing and personally delivering paperwork to each other that we could have just sent through the inter-office mail, or that I could have asked one of the clerks to take over lol.
we were very descreet though, sometimes we would go out to lunch but meet in the parking lot and not stroll back in together...lol
also we would meet in the coffey room, the first day he had a new flavor of coffey and I wanted to taste it and he handed me his mug so I could taste it, then we were both like whoa, hope nobody saw that...lol
but anyways I am no longer at that job and we are still cool and I still have the hotties for him, but now even when we hook up it is not like we have to see each other at work and be thinking about what we did the night before!!! lol

My username is jazzykurl but some people just call me jazzy, I'm from Australia and I ride to school on a kangaroo! :D... ok so I don't, but I have fed a koala, does that count as something?
Well my first and one of my favorite pokemon games is Pokemon Leafgreen and my starter was squirtle so I have a soft spot for my little squirt ( that was his nickname when he was a squirtle, his nickname now is blast) I quite like Soulsilver and out of all the mystery dungeon games, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers Of Sky was my favourite and made vulpix and shinx two of my favorite pokemon (team VulShinx Forever!).
I also read lots of pokemon creepy pasta and some other creepypastas/somewhat scary stories too (mostly related to video games)
Oh and a few things like how once in a blue moon I might buy a pokemon card packet or how the pokemono Dimond and pearl series is my favorite in the anime... and try not to say cupcake to much. That's about it~ (sorry for making you read through all of that grammer/spelling mistakes)

US Economy to Grow 2-3% in 2012, Says Treasury Secretary Geithner
Category: Finance Hits: 461
US Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner agrees with the consensus forecast that the United States economy will grow between 2% and 3% this year. "I think that's a realistic outcome as long as we don't see a lot of risks coming out of Europe," he told participants at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting today in Davos, Switzerland.
"But we still face tremendous challenges," Geithner conceded. America's economic prospects are "still very dependent on how the world unfolds."
"We're still repairing the damage caused by the devastating financial crisis," he said. "Unemployment is still very high, housing and construction are still very weak, people still have too much debt."
Geithner admitted that there are now "very high levels of poverty in this country, very high levels of inequality and an erosion in people's confidence in their [upward] mobility," a startling admission for the world's only remaining superpower.
But he denied that the tough regulations the US is imposing on the financial sector and the reforms in healthcare are holding back economic growth. "The reality does not justify that sense," he insisted. "Profitability across the American economy is very high, higher than the pre-crisis peak."
"If you look at investments as a measure of confidence, private investment in equipment and software is up more than 30% since the trough in the first half of 2009," Geithner added. "Exports are up by 23%. There's a broad-based strength in energy, in agriculture, in manufacturing."
"I really do not think we could realistically deliver a better outcome for the American business sector," he said. "Although we recognize that these reforms are tough and they will change the economics of business, we think the overall effect on the economy is certainly positive long term. There is no basis or evidence that the effects of these reforms are hurting growth now."
The Great Transformation: Shaping New Models
With record participation of over 2,600 leaders from government, academia, business and civil society, this year's Annual Meeting also Calls for More Women Leaders.
Thailand's Prime Minister, Yingluck Shinawatra, opened the discussion by announcing that Thailand plans to create a national women's development fund to counter human rights abuses directed at women. She said that education is the most effective way of decreasing early pregnancies, the death of women in childbirth and infections of HIV/AIDS. In announcing the fund, Shinawatra further stressed that education is essential in equipping women to resist sexual aggression and to defend their rights.
She added that Thailand plans to host the World Economic Forum on East Asia later this year and the role of women will be one of the major topics discussed.
Sheryl Sandberg, Chief Operating Officer of Facebook, said that women suffer from an ambition gap. "We say we want to educate girls," she said, "but we don't really believe it. We don't raise our daughters to be as ambitious as boys." Sandberg added that as early as the age of four, boys are taught to be leaders, while girls are encouraged to stay in the background. A man who demands a higher salary is taken more seriously, while a woman who demands the same thing or tries to be assertive is seen as being bossy. "How many boys have you ever heard accused of being too bossy?" Sandberg asked.
During the session, Archbishop Desmond Tutu said that the empowerment of women is essential to development. "Without women we will miss six of the eight Millennium Development Goals," he said. Asked what would happen if women ruled the world instead of men, Tutu responded, "Men have tried to rule the world for centuries, and they have made a mess. Let's let the other half try."
Other important remarks
Private Sector Investment Critical to Bring Power to Millions Living in Energy Poverty
Reducing energy poverty will require the "massive mobilization of all partners" to bring life after dark to millions of people around the world. Speaking at a plenary session, Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, called on the private sector to invest in sustainable energy projects and infrastructure, and for governments to make sustainable energy a priority by implementing the right policies.
European Finance Chiefs Hail Fiscal Compact and Call for Growth and Jobs Focus
In a session on the future of the Eurozone, European finance and economics ministers hailed the imminent agreement on closer fiscal convergence in Europe as a major step to restore confidence in their distressed economies. "We need a fiscal compact and we are revamping the economic structure of Europe," said European Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn. "Prevention is the name of the game and we want to prevent fiscal crisis and external imbalances that have happened in the past year with tremendous human cost." Added Luis de Guindos Jurado, Minister of Economic Affairs and Competitiveness of Spain.

I did already, sorta, out of repetitiveness. Already what, like, 9 games on the DS using the same goddamn engine (or 5 if you do not count version polar opposites). I didn't even bother with White 2 (might get it in the near future, though.) The formula is too perfected to change most likely, but with most games nowadays being action games (Mario, Zelda, etc... Heck Wii Sports) I think there should be some ARPG spinoffs. That's why I liked Pokemon Rumble Blast, screw the reviews.
I also hate how the veteran fans get no love, and they are mostly focusing on the little kids when it comes to marketing/advertising material. They release every single game to be E for Everyone to stay on the safe side and have all the kids buy it, and anyone who wants to play a bit of a non-child friendly Pokemon can go to hell (And they made our favorite characters disappear in favor of others in the anime). I see this as a "Thank you guys for your money, we don't need you anymore."
So, yeah, if touching Pokemon SoulSilver or White once in a blue moon doesn't count, I stopped Pokemon.
Please don't direct hate at me, but's that's how I see it.

Wil Wheaton Will Bring His Weekly 'Talk Soup For Geeks' To Syfy
By Nick Venable 2 years ago comments
Wil Wheaton, everyones favorite nerd-that-isnt-Chris-Hardwick, has preached the Word of Nerd in almost every way imaginable, from his podcast Radio Free Burrito to hosting and sitting on panels at various fests and cons. And hell get to do it on a weekly televised basis starting Tuesday, May 27, as Syfy announced theyll be airing The Wil Wheaton Project, a half-hour run through the science fiction gauntlet giving viewers the funniest and most interesting news and videos that the genre has to offer. Syfy has ordered 12 episodes of the series.
Perhaps best known to sci-fi fans as the perfectly coifed Wesley Crusher on Star Trek: The Next Generation and to others as Gordie in Rob Reiners Stand by Me Wheaton will bring his trademark humor and positivity to the worlds of movies, TV, video games, viral videos and pop culture in general. If Patrick Stewart takes a picture of Ian McKellen standing next to it, you can bet well see Wheaton talking about it. And its possible hell have a couple of guests helping him along the way, though no names were given.
Wheaton announced the news himself via his highly popular blog site WIL WHEATON dot NET, where he describes the Project as sort of like Talk Soup for geeks. He points out the shows original concept was based purely on making fun of over-the-top paranormal shows that Ghost Hunters ushered into existence. (Im already calling this to be my favorite part of the show, as I abhor Zak Bagans Ghost Adventures and anything even closely resembling it.)
Wheatons announcement is a delightful read, as are most of his musings, and it documents the series entire existence, from the pitch meeting to the shooting of the pilot. A little drama is injected into the story when he talks about the Syfy exec who approved the show leaving the network before the pilot was produced. If The Will Wheaton Project is written with the same level of care, it could be the best unscripted show on TV.
Even though hes widely known for his own personality these days, Wheaton is still an actor, though a lot of that is voicework.

Jaguars, Jones-Drew run to 17-6 win over Titans
NASHVILLE, Tenn. The Jacksonville Jaguars have run their way all the way to the top of the AFC South.
Maurice Jones-Drew ran for a career-best 186 yards, second-best total in the NFL this season, and the Jaguars rushed a franchise-record 53 times in downing the Tennessee Titans 17-6 on Sunday and taking the divisional lead all to themselves. It's the first time the Jaguars have won three of their first four divisional games since 1999.
David Garrard, who ran for a touchdown, said they just had to beat the Titans in a key divisional game.
"We're right there at the top, and we don't want to give anybody anymore games ...," Garrard said. "We're right up there and right now leading it. We just have to continue on that same path and in that same mindset. We believe that this is a great year for us."
The Jaguars (7-5) have a one-game lead over Indianapolis (6-6), which lost to Dallas 38-35 in overtime.
"Anybody that's been around us knows this is a different team," Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said. "Certainly, we feel well-positioned. Seven-and-5 right now has us in the lead in our division, and we're playing good football. We've won four of our last five, and we're gaining confidence. We know there's room for growth."
Jones-Drew has been a big key. He has run for at last 100 yards in the past five games, and the Jaguars rolled up 258 yards against Tennessee for a nice piece of revenge that evened the season series between these rivals. The Titans won 30-3 on Oct. 18 in Jacksonville, but the Jaguars held Chris Johnson and Tennessee to 57 yards rushing.
They also intercepted two of Kerry Collins' passes and sacked him once.
Del Rio had challenged Jones-Drew and his offense to step up, and the running back said you want to please your coach and your teammates. He believes the offensive line took that personally, and Jones-Drew said he benefited against Tennessee.
"I only had to make one guy miss most of the time. Guys are running down field blocking doing a great job of keeping guys off me. ... That performance was a total team effort," Jones-Drew said.
For Tennessee (5-7), it was the fifth straight loss for a team that had hoped a return home for the first of three divisional games would put it back on track. Instead, the Titans trailed 17-0 by halftime and have gone 13 quarters without scoring an offensive touchdown.
"We have to play perfect right now, and we're not doing that," Titans coach Jeff Fisher said. "We're going to continue to work on it. We've gone quarters and quarters without scoring a touchdown. That's got to change."
The Titans had gotten Collins back at starting quarterback, and offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger called the game from the press box after starting chemotherapy for cancer Wednesday. Tennessee held the ball just 20:06 settled for two field goals from Rob Bironas.
"We have got to face the facts," Collins said. "We have got to face reality. We are not doing what we need to do to put the ball in the end zone. The only thing I know how to do is just come back and work at it and fight and try to get it done the next time we play."
The Jaguars took control from the start on a cold and windy day, and they ran the ball on 11 of the 12 plays capped by Rashad Jennings' 11-yard TD run on fourth-and-1. Garrard added a 4-yard TD run in the second quarter, and Josh Scobee's field goal made it 17-0 at halftime after Jacksonville held the ball for more than 21 minutes.

The rain cleared out, my window for my ride opened up.
11 miles down the road I was passing by a collection of buildings that specialize in scrap metal, salvaged cars, and whatever other garbage they can sell/recycle. Of course there is the one place that has the dozen angry dogs out front that I have to move past quickly.
...except this time i didn't seem to be able to get moving like I normally do, wind was low, strength was there, something was wrong.
Remember that scrap metal, yeah I probably should have chosen my path better, nail pierced my less than 1 week old back tire, and it was flat.
Having to call the wife to come pick me up (no repair kit or skills yet for tires) was humiliating.

Nai was still sitting on the ground, but he was talking again. He was chatting merrily with Piku and a Zigzagoon, one of the babies he had raised from the garage. Zoom was a very nice raccoon, if a little long-winded. Piku found him funny for some reason. Nobody quite got why, especially not Nai. The mouse was climbing up to Nai's head, the boy munching on his breakfast, occassionally giing some to the two Pokemon.
The latest morsel, a carrot, caused Zoom to burp loudly.
"Ah see that's a good human right there. Thanks kid. You're so much better than those clean freaks at Oldale. Honestly, dey act like I'm a burglar or somethin'."
"You are a burglar Zoom,"
Piku told him nonchalantly, scratching at his ear. The raccoon scoffed at him, rolling his beady black eyes.
"All I'm doin' is takin' their fallen Berries! It ain't like I'm pullin 'em off the stems."
He growled playfully at the air as Nai giggled obliviously. All around them, kids were heading inside. Nai paid no attention, Zoom off on a new rambling.
"So yest'day I was runnin' m' rounds, going tuh' the flower shop down by Rustboro an' there's this Taillow, see? She is such a yappy little bird, goin' on an' on about how I'm one of the lowest 'mons that was made and Berries should be for the flyin' little monsters. But get this Pik-"
Piku twitched at the name. That was not what you called him.
"Guess who gets da goods? Tha's right: moi. And that uppoty little featha' head's beat off with a broom. All ya gotta do is turn on the charm, amirite?"
Piku cackles delightedly. He didn't like the Taillow species. They seemed to think that Arceus and Mew declared them the awesome creatures of the world. It was so darn obnoxious. Nai however, looked concerned. "Is the bird okay?"
Zoom chortled.
"Kid, it's a Taillow. It's just got a bruised ego."
"Perhaps I misjudged you after all."

Django 1.6 ImageField not rendered properly in Admin inline form

|Easy pickings:
I have a model with ImageFields but the ImageField does not show properly when the model is an inline of another form. Downgrading to django 1.4.9 things are fine. So I think this is an issue with django 1.6.

Could you provide some more details like code to reproduce, a traceback, etc. Have you tested with Django 1.5 to see if the issue exists there?

Files attached showing the difference between 1.4.9 and 1.6. Django 1.5 is the same as 1.6. ImageFields inlines are not showing.
comment:3 Changed 3 years ago by timo
Screenshots are nice, but that's not sufficient for us to reproduce the issue to confirm it's actually a problem with Django and not your own code or a 3rd party library. Using the Choice model in the tutorial, I was able to add an inline ImageField just fine.
comment:4 Changed 3 years ago by anonymous
Here is the code that I have that works in 1.4.9 but not in later releases:
In the models.py:
class Property(models.Model): property_id = models.IntegerField(primary_key=True, default=0) title = models.CharField(max_length=250, null=False) village = models.ForeignKey(Village, 'name') class PropertyImages(models.Model): property_id = models.ForeignKey(Property) image_path = models.ImageField(null=False, upload_to='test')
Then in the admin.py:
class PropertyImagesAdmin(admin.TabularInline): model = PropertyImages fields = ['image_path'] class PropertyAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin): fields = [ 'title', 'village' ] inlines = [ PropertyImagesAdmin, ] admin.site.register(Property, PropertyAdmin)
I am not sure if Django is the problem or I have to do this differently in later version.

- Triage Stage changed from Unreviewed to Accepted
I could reproduce and can confirm that this happens when object primary key = 0. The cause still needs to be investigated...
comment:6 Changed 3 years ago by claudep
- Component changed from Uncategorized to Forms
- Keywords regression added
OK, so this was introduced with the fix for #19524 ([e9c24bef74e5572] and [5097d3c5faab2] (1.5)).
The problem is the test if self.instance.pk: in BaseInlineFormSet.__init__ which should probably be if self.instance.pk is not None:.
comment:7 Changed 3 years ago by akaariai
What about backpatching? This seems to be both in 1.5 and 1.6. Django 1.5 is in security fixes only mode, and this clearly isn't a regression for 1.6. The changes required here seem to be trivial, and possibility for new regressions seems really low, so I vote for backpatch to 1.6.

Great overview of the main areas of Yosemite, with some light walking. Our guide was most kind and interesting, we had a great time. Would definitely recommend to discover the area.
My friend and I went on this tour last October 2015, and had such a good time! Our tour guide was Mitch, he was such a fun and friendly guide, who also knew so much about Yosemite. I would definitely recommend this tour to everyone thinking of going to Yosemite. I loved our walk around the giant sequoias, and Mitch took us on some beautful walks around Yosemite, so we got to see loads of amazing views.
There were only 5 of us in the group, so we got to talk to everyone and got to know everyone well, which made the tour atmosphere a lot more fun!
Just wanted to thank Mitch for a great experience, and would recommend the tour to everyone, and I would definitely do it again!
Very Kind Guide, The Course is very good. I recommend this course.
Our guide, Mitch, was excellent...very knowledgeable about the park and fun to hang out with. Highly recommend this tour!

Totally fabulous from the first minute to the last. All went smoothly and we had a full trip thanks to the very skilled guide Leo.
This was a truly excellent tour with a great guide. The activity level was good but this is a tour where you need to be in reasonably good physical condition, especially for the high altitude portion. Climbs can be steep at times for those not used to this form of activity.
Fantastic trip, our tour guide Chris was amazing, full of info and stories about the area. As we didn't have a car for San Francisco this was a great way to see Yosemite as well as getting to go to places outside of the usual sites in the valley. Accommodation was good, wonderful trip.
A fantstic couple of days enthusiastic guid Mike was ecellent. The vews awe inspiring. Weather hot and sunny. Recommended
A stunning experience. Everything was as described and the tour guide, Marie, was both funny and informative. My family all thought this was the highlight of our trip to San Francisco.
I would give this 10 stars. Tour guide, Chris was very knowledgeable and personable.Hotel pickup and drop off was smooth and on time too! I liked the fact that it was a smaller group. 10 in our group. Nice mix of time on our own to explore vs. guided hikes. It was perfect for single woman and someone unfamiliar with Yosemite and its history. Can't overstate how much fun the tour guide made the trip. He's likes what he is doing and it shows. Not as many sequoias as I thought so I was glad I had visited Big Basin Redwood State Park in the Santa Cruz mountain area prior to arriving in SF.
Hotel accommodations at the Cedar Lodge were not Hilton standards but room was clean and air conditioned. Didn't spend much time at the hotel anyway so it wasn't an issue.
I would highly recommend Incredible Adventures and Chris Clack in particular. I also think the 2 day trip is better than a 1 day trip would have been. I plan on booking again with viator and the local tour company again in the future.
This was a fantastic tour if you only have 2 days to visit Yosemite. We got breath-taking views of the half dome, El Capitan and much more. With hotel pick ups and drop offs, it's as easy as it gets for some unfamiliar with the region. Our guide, Marie was very knowledgeable about the area and its history, and kept us entertained an informed with stories throughout the tour. Yosemite is such an amazing place, and I wish I could have stayed there longer.
This tour was awesome. The guide was great. This trip is only for those who like to hike a bit. If you are in poor health I would take this tour. If you can handle the hiking it is awesome.
Everything was so well planned. Our time was utilized to the fullest. Brian our tour guide could not have been any more prepared an d wonderful. He was great. Loved the park. Hotel was very nice. All around great 2days
This tour was awesome! Yosemite is by far the best national park I've ever visited. We used to drive by ourselves to national parks. But after this tour, we decided that we'll definitely take some other guided tours because that's a perfect way to have a deep understanding of national parks. Our guide of this tour is Chris, who is the best guide we've ever met. He knows a lot of things about the history, the plants and animals, the secret scenic spots of Yosemite. He told us interesting and informative stories about Yosemite. He's such a great story-teller, clear, logical, full of passion and humor. He is also a very good driver, making the trip safe and comfortable. The best thing is that he loves the nature so much and he picked all the garbage he spotted along the hiking trail. My child learned how to protect our mother planet from Chris. This is definitely teaching by doing! We highly recommended this tour. You will get more than the gorgeous and sublime scenery of Yosemite.

The entire group had a wonderful time on our 2-day Yosemite National Park Tour, starting April 25th, 2015. Due to unusual amounts of fresh snow the day before, hiking conditions were difficult, and several roads were closed, including Glacier Point. Our guide, Brian Wunderlich, was expertly able to rearrange our intiniary, postponing Glacier Point until the road reopened. He also put on chains, and brought all of us who felt up to it through the snow, safely scaling Half Dome for a spectaclular closing. Thanks Brian, for being such a genuinely great guy. You made a great big difference, and we really appreciate your extensive knowlege of the area. The freshly melting snow and great locations also made for some stunning photos. What a great trip it was. Make sure to look up Brian for an incredible adventure in Yosemite or the San Francisco area.
The tour was great and Brian was a wonderful guide. He went above and beyond in guiding us in our free time. He made lots of scenic stops, and it was a great trip.
Despite the drought resulting in the park being dry, it was still amazingly beautiful. We did two lovely walks, one in the sequoia forest and the other around the base of the Yosemite Valley. The guide was informative and made us all feel comfortable. I didn't want to leave!
If you can only spend one night in Yosemite, you should take this tour. It will show you the highlights and give you a taste of what Yosemite has to offer, and make you want to come back föor more. Our tour guide James was very informative without talking our ears off. The best part of the trip was the time we got to spend on our own in the park.
This tour was the perfect way to enjoy some of the best of Yosemite in just two days. We were picked up early at our respective hotels by our cheerful and indefatigable guide, Brian Wunderlich, in a small bus and whisked to Yosemite, conveniently stopping for breakfast and picnic materials on the way. Brian was full of information on the various spectacular places we passed through or visited, some of which were off the tourist trail. Hotel accommodation was fine, and we had time on the afternoon of the second day to hike to suggested points of interest or explore closer to home. A very well-planned and enjoyable tour. Highly recommended.
This was a really great trip. It was very well organised. James our tour guide was great and kept us on time while still creating a very relaxed atmosphere. The frist day was largely in the bus with an optional hike at the giant redwood grove, and then plenty of shortish stops at all the best viewpoints in Yosemite for photos, every view was truly awesome. I had initially been dissapointed to not get lodging within the park, but cedar lodge was perfect and I actually didn't feel I missed out at all, our guide took us right there and back to the valley in the morning. Second day we got 5/6 hours to do some of the hikes from the valley recommended by James which were great. All in all a fantastic trip, I hope one day to have the opportunity to go back and explore the 'backcountry'.
Most enjoyable 2 day trip, excellent guide and loads of photo op stops. Free time each day to explore. Breathtaking scenery.
Was a great trip! Yosemite nature is just wonderful. Even my cold could not spoil it. Brian is a fantastic guide, so knowable and caring. The atmosphere was so relaxed. :-)
Fantastic trip! We were able to see and do more than we could have on our own. There were nine participants, and the guide adjusted the itinerary based on how much adventure the group wanted to experience. This was an active tour involving several fun hikes of 0.5-2.0 miles.
