NORTH BAY – The House passed HR 5297 today, the small business lending bill that once made into law will greatly increase the reach of Small Business Administration loans.
Last week, the Senate passed the bill, and now it needs to go to the president.
The bill creates a $30 billion lending fund for community banks. The bill would extend the fee reductions for SBA 7(a) and 504 loans and increase the guarantee to 90 percent through Dec. 31, or until $505 million in appropriations has been contracted.
There will be a permanent increase to the size of the loans, $5 million for both 7(a) and 504, and a temporary increase of $1 million for express loans.
"The impact this will have on small businesses in Northern California gaining access to capital is significant. This bill is also a huge boost for community banks who participate in the SBA 7(a) and 504 program," said Michael Rice, senior vice president of small business lending at Circle Bank in Novato when the senate passed the bill last week.

Skip to comments.GOP senator: A stretch to say Palin is qualified
Posted on 09/18/2008 10:49:08 AM PDT by 3AngelaD
WASHINGTON Nebraska Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel said his partys vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, lacks foreign policy experience and called it a stretch to say shes qualified to be president. She doesnt have any foreign policy credentials, Hagel said in an interview published Thursday by the Omaha World-Herald....
(Excerpt) Read more at azstarnet.com ...
Chuck Hagel isn't qualified to be the Senate shoe-shine-boy. Nobody will miss him and nobody will even remember who he is after the election. I guess he's just looking to get his name in the paper, so we can all line our catboxes with his face for one last time.
Hey CHUCKIE!! You having the nerve of calling Palin Unqualified... is Identical to the NERVE of you calling yourself a REPUBLICAN... NEITHER of which is correct!!
Palin is more qualified than Obama for either VPOTUS or POTUS.
It's more of a stretch to call Hagel a "Republican."
The Little Gurlie Man from Nebraska should go off to some corner and have a good cry.
He doesn't appreciate a real woman.
I wonder why the never ask Zell Miller what he thinks about Obamma.
Weren't you listening, Chuck? I saw that Tina Fey look-a-like get up and say "I can see Russia from my house."
And if that is not a relationship with a foreign country, I don't know one that is.
Chuckie has stolen more money from the US than Harold Raines.
Add up his farm bills .
Shut up, Chuck. You're an embarrassment.
If I was a Republican I would prefer that Hagel move on over to the democrat party. He adds nothing of value to anything he does or says.
Hagel is about as Republican as Joe Scarborough and Rick Warren. Hagel is a total A HOLE and always has been.
Um, Chuck, she isn't RUNNING for President. However, Obama is TRYING to run for President, and he has no foreign policy experience.
He also doesn't have any executive experience, which Palin does. Therefore, she is MUCH more qualified to be President than he is.
Hagel is a Republican? I did not know that.
Hagel shows the problem within the Republican Party. Liberal ninnies claiming to be Republican.
The sooner the party sheds itself of these whiners, the better.
a stretch to say that Hagel is GOP
Why the good people of Nebraska continue to abide this idiot is beyond me!
Other than the fact that his dad was a black Kenyan who abandoned him when he was 2, and his step-dad was indonesian, where he lived in indonesia for a few years as a kid, attending a muslim school, and registered as a muslim and indonesian citizen, can Anyone explain even one single foreign-affairs experience/credential that Obama has?
But she's not running at the top of the ticket Mr. Hagel.
————————Is Hagel drunk again?
Chuck, what were Gov. Bill Clinton's foreign policy credentials?
Poor Chuckie. So desperate to get his name on a national ticket he would lick anyone's boots to get there. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Nebraska will be better off if you never step foot in the state again. Don't wait... resign now...
Sit down, Chuck.
It's amazing how many people speak out so passionately concerning Governor Palin's qualifications or lack of qualifications for VP, but don't bother to say one word about the even greater dirth of relevant experience of Barack the Unready. He is the most unqualified major party nominee since WWII, and maybe in US history (just don't know about both nominees much before Eisenhower/Stevenson).
I then assume Hagel considers the no-experience Barry to be qualified for POTUS?.....
That's the extent of his foreign relations experience.
Misleading headline.
Should be RINO Senator.
Nam Vet
What he doesn't realize is that it's a good thing. It's actually refreshing to have someone that is not locked into policys that do not support this country.
How much pork does this slime Hagel deliver to the entitlement-minded, welfare-mom farmers in Nebraska?
The scariest thing about all this is that Hagel and McCain are about the same on all issues (except Iraq)...note that he does not blast his fellow GOP liberal McCain (more telling than his attack on Palin)
His term is up this year and he isn't running for re-election.
These oafs believe only the washington elite are qualified. Screw them. Their way of doing things has resulted in more disasters than successes.
Time for somebody with a better foundation, one uncontiminated by insider politics.
When will our conservative friends in Nebraska replace this loser?
Right now I'd like to trade Chuck Hagel for Joe Lieberman & call it 'Even'. All you do, Chuck, is lend cover to the Left-wing of the Democrat Party.
The stretch is to say that Hussein is qualified.
That is very good news indeed!
When exactly did Hagel fall off the wagon?
This guy is SUCH a jerk. I hope McCain is learning his lesson about trusting RINOs like Hagel. If McCain wins, I hope he cuts off Chuckie's pork completely.
Know your enemies. Bush has a hard time understanding that, and McCain too, but maybe he's learning.
The press is not your friend, John. The Democrats are not your friends. Teddy is not your friend. Chuckie is not your friend.
Hardly a GOP Senator! Was this dufus not along side the Messiah when he told the Iraqi's to continue keeping U.S. forces in Iraq until after the election? Traitors!
Nebraska: The only state with a more conservative Democrat senator than RINO senator.
Well, he tried to undermine ongoing negotiations between the USA and Iraq, so as to delay the departure of the troops.
That would count, wouldn't it...???
Hagel is a Dem in Republican clothing.
I don't take anything he says seriously.
The RNC should not allocate re-election funds for this moron!

An attorney who represented a county board for more than 20 years is resigning.
Attorney John "Phil" Wilson turned in his letter of resignation Feb. 28, saying he was leaving his position as the county council's attorney because the board planned to use the new assistant county attorney for legal work in the future.
The assistant county attorney's position was created and approved by the county council in January. The council planned to use the person as the board's attorney.
After Wilson's resignation, Shena Wheeler, the assistant county attorney, was approved as the county council's new attorney.
The council will save money by not having to pay fees for an attorney from a private practice. Wheeler and county attorney Kathleen Hash are a full-time employees and offer services to all county departments.

The shooter involved in a robbery over drug money at a Vancouver apartment complex was sentenced Friday to 15 years in prison.
Armando Castillo Munoz was the last of three defendants to resolve his case in connection to a shooting at the Red Haven Apartments, 1304 N.E. 88th St., on the night of Jan. 21.
The confrontation started with Castillo Munoz and two other men confronting the 34-year-old victim about a drug debt. It escalated when Castillo Munoz pistol-whipped the man and then shot him in the hand, prosecutors said. After the assailants fled, the victim was rushed to Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center for treatment of lacerations to his head and a wounded finger.
Castillo Munoz, 29, pleaded guilty June 17 to first-degree assault with a firearm and possession of heroin with intent to deliver.
Even with time off for good behavior, Castillo Munoz will serve a 14-year sentence. The five-year sentencing enhancement for using a firearm doesn't allow time off for good behavior and the assault charge allows only up to 10 percent off for good time, said Senior Deputy Prosecutor Alan Harvey.
Also, Castillo Munoz is an illegal alien who has already been deported to Mexico once, attorneys said. He's expected to be deported again upon his release.
"I think it is an appropriate resolution to the case," defense attorney Tony Lowe told the judge.
Still, prior to sentencing, Castillo Munoz appeared to have a change of heart.
Through a Spanish interpreter, he said: "I want to apologize for what I said Friday" at the guilty plea hearing. "I want to go to trial."
Clark County Superior Court Judge Barbara Johnson explained to him that he had already pleaded guilty, giving up his right to trial. She then imposed the sentence.
Castillo Munoz's co-defendants, Andrew Wright and Nathan Gadberry, saw varying outcomes when their cases went to trial. Gadberry was acquitted May 12 of being an accomplice in the robbery and assault. Wright, with a different jury, was convicted June 9 of the same charges.
While attorneys for Wright and Gadberry presented similar defenses of them as men who were in the wrong place at the wrong time, prosecutors at Wright's trial were able to introduce taped jail conversations in which Wright implicated himself.
With an extensive criminal history that boosted his sentencing range, Wright received 23 years in prison for first-degree robbery and first-degree assault.
Johnson explained the discrepancy in the two sentences by pointing out that Castillo Munoz had a far less substantial criminal history. He has a previous drug conviction, but no violent criminal offenses, she said.

Ana Maria
Update on Ana MariaAna María is single. She used to live with her partner but they separated; they have a son who is school age and another one that also lives with her. She lives in her mother's house. Her mother is a senior citizen and the house has two environments where the bedroom and living room are located. The room is stucco-covered adobe and the floor is dirt and brick. The house is located in the Pasankeri zone in the southern part of the city of La Paz.
She currently works selling all types of plumbing supplies made of PVC (pipes that are used for drainage, potable water, elbows, boxes, semi-elbows made of PVC, etc.) in a stand located in one of El Alto's street markets; she's open for business Thursdays and Sundays. She's responsible for household food and utility costs. She needs the loan to buy merchandise (more tubing of various diameter) to have a better variety of merchandise in stock and thus improve her income. Ana María's dream is to have her own building supplies store to earn income and improve her quality of life. This is her third loan request to IMPRO and KIVA.
Actualmente trabaja comercializando todo tipo de material de fontanería de material de pvc (tubos que se usan para alcantarillado, agua potable,codos, cajas, semicodos de pvc, etc.) en un puesto que se encuentra en una de las ferias ciudad de El Alto donde atiende los jueves y domingos, ella se encarga de los gastos de alimentación y pago de servicios de su hogar.

Additional Information
About IMPROIMPRO is a small non-profit organization that has been offering micro credit to the working poor in the Bolivian cities of La Paz and El Alto since 1995. IMPRO's goal is to fight poverty by offering loans to small business owners who cannot access credit through the regular banking system due to a lack of guarantees or collateral.
To ensure that everyone has access to credit, IMPRO maintains a low interest rate by minimizing operational costs. IMPRO's partnership with Kiva, which began in 2007, has allowed IMPRO to expand its services while maintaining these low interest rates.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

I need to verify something for which I have doubts. If a shared library ( .dll) is written in C, with the C99 standard and compiled under a compiler. Say MinGw. Then in my experience it is binary compatible and hence useable from any other compiler. Say MS Visual Studio. I say in my experience because I have tried it successfully more than once. But I need to verify if this is a rule.
And in addition I would like to ask if it is indeed so, then why libraries written completely in C, like openCV for example don't provide compiled binaries for every different OS? I know that the obvious reason would be to set all the compile-time parameters, but other than that there is none right?
EDIT: I am adding an additional question which I see as a logical extension to the original. Isn't this how one would go and create a closed source library? Since the option of giving source goes out of the window there, giving binaries is the only choice. And in that case providing binaries for as many architectures as possible is the desired result, with C being an obvious choice for having the best portability between systems and compilers. Right?

The Paths of the Righteous (1 of 5) by Ken Trivette
This content is part of a series.The Paths of the Righteous (1 of 5)
Series: The Paths of the Righteous
Ken Trivette
Proverbs 2:20
1. The Better Path That Is Accepted
a) Guided by Divine Instruction
b) Gladdened by Divine Insight
c) Guarded by Divine Involvement
2. The Bad Path That Is Avoided
a) The Darkness of the Bad Path
b) The Death of the Bad Path
3. The Blessed Path That Is Attended
a) Blessings That Are Abundant
b) Blessings That Are Abiding
1. Henry David Thoreau said, "Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence."
2. For many the great question of life is which path should I take? As Thoreau suggested, "some path" should be taken, but again, what should that path be? Is it just some path? Is it any path that we may choose to take? Should I take "some path" just for the sake of taking a path, or is there a particular path I should take in life?
3. An August 12, 1969 news article from the San Francisco Chronicle read, "The blazing summer heat of the Death Valley area has killed two men and a youth who tried to reach habitation by setting foot across the desert." Arnold Dobson, Harold Mast Sr., and his son Harold Jr., apparently became stranded in the barren Saline Valley without water. One of the three bodies was found 7 miles from their abandoned car, another 14 miles, and the last 17 miles.
4. Deputy Red Landergren said, "It looks like they just went the wrong way." It would seem that they turned in the direction toward a ranch house they had passed 30 miles back. However, just a mile the other way was a grove of willows with a spring.
5. The paths that we take are important because the paths we take have consequences. If we take the wrong path in life and go in the wrong direction it can lead to tragic consequences. If the outcome of life is determined by the paths we take, and it is, then we should take great care in choosing the right paths.
6. In Proverbs chapter two, Solomon speaks of different paths. In verses 8-20 the word "paths" is found 5 times and the word "path" is found once. There are contrasting paths described by Solomon, but the paths that I want to consider are the "paths of the righteous" (Vs. 20).
7. For a few studies I want to look at the "paths of the righteous," what they are, and where they lead. At the very beginning let me say that the path that ought to be chosen in life is the path of righteousness. All that have ever chosen this path in life will testify to the blessing and reward of this path.
8. Whereas, there are many who regret the paths they have taken in life, none who have ever chosen the paths of the righteous looked back with remorse or regret.
9. On his death-bed, Frenchman Adolphe Monod wrote "The Regrets of a Dying Man." One of the saddest of his regrets was, that he had not from the first taken the Bible plan of life, and the Bible means of reaching it.
10. One may regret not taking the paths of righteousness, but one will n ...

My little man wears disposables at daycare (they wouldn't do cloth). He wears 6 total per week - 3 each on two days. Lately we've been having problems with his penis - the end is really red and irritated. He has a loose circ and the end of the skin that is there looks inflamed. Last week it had a little split. Today I was looking at it and the opening to his urethra is bright red and split more than normal. It almost looks bloody, although i saw no blood in his diapers. If I put neosporin on his penis, it gets better in about a day. But it keeps coming back. It seems worse on a day after he goes to daycare. I'm trying to figure out if there is some correlation here - does it sounds like it could be the disposables? Or something else? If it IS the disposables what can I do? Maybe I can stick a Kushies liner in there when he goes and put neosporin on it when he leaves the house. He only gets changed two more times while he is there so it might be enough protection.
I should mention he has only gone to daycare for about a month now and this problem never happened before he started, which is why I am drawing this correlation.

Skip to comments.Obama To Appear On The View: What A Wimp!
Posted on 07/26/2010 10:38:54 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
"President Obama`s New York trip this week now includes a unique stop: The View.
`This marks the first time in history a sitting United States President has visited a daytime talk show,` says a press release from The View, the morning chatfest featuring Barbara Walters and Whoopi Goldberg.
The interview will be taped Wednesday, and broadcast Thursday morning."
Real men don`t eat quiche, they don`t get in touch with their inner child, and they don`t watch "The View." I`d rather undergo a root canal by a dentist on crack, than watch the neurotic and annoying ladies of "The View." There is nothing more nauseating under the sun than to hear decrepit old ladies discuss sex. Yuck!
Obama may love playing basketball, but after shooting a few hoops he probably has a manicure. Appearing on "The View" won`t help Obama`s approval ratings with men, be they Democrats or Republicans.
I voted for Obama, but if his wimpiness factor doesn`t stop creeping up, I may vote for somebody more macho, like Sarah Palin.
Obama, you`ve been put on notice! Be a man!
They had the Imaginations Movers from the Disney Channel on today, so he at least seems to be playing within in league.
"the first female President"
he's desperate.
Just another one of the girls
The fact that he is going on, of all places, "The View" (or as it is known in England, "Loose Women") seems to me a red flag he is in real trouble.
Real men and presidents don't go on old ladies daytime TV.
This means he is trying to shore up his base with lib daytime Oprah TV watcher types - the type that watch Whoopie and Joy. He's already lost the middle and the foolish right, now he has to make sure he doesn't lose the lib silly women vote.
I hope Joy Behar has the common courtesy to give Zero a reach-around.
I hope Joy Behar has the common courtesy to give Zero a reach-around.
Ewww. WHAT is your major malfunction!? /Sgt Hartman off
Oh why are those Wepubwecans be so mean to our wuttle pwesident?
He's a TWINK!!!!!!
I'll predict now that Joy Behar will be wearing knee pads.
I predict there will be the sound of battery operated appliances off camera...
Never gonna happen.
Next, he'll be doing cameos on soap operas. Gotta shore up the womens' vote.
Oh, please, I hope not. I don't need my soaps being polluted by the likes of him.
He is doing his republicans are bad stand up routine. Nothing but an infomercial. Pubs should be threatening to sue for equal time.
Beat me too it. Of course hes not addressed as Madame President. We have to wait for 2013 to say and hear those words.
I'll predict Whoopi asks one awkward question that doesn't get answered.
Hey, that's an insult to all future female presidents!
Suck it, Barry, suck it. We all know you suck ... in every way.
I used to watch THE VIEW, but when Elizabeth began to join the rest of the far left on that show, I totally stopped..Couldn't stand the irrational thought processes and the pre and post menopausal rages. Obama will not win converts there..He will be playing to his crowd.
OMG. What a momma's boy! I hope the opposition gets some clips of this.
This is the guy who is supposed to be commander-in-chief?
This is the guy who is supposed to be chief diplomat?
(S)he is supposed to face down Ahmadinijad (sp)?
(S)he is supposed to get Putin to take the U.S. seriously?
(S)he is supposed to defend the U.S. borders?
More and more of its policies make sense when viewed in this context -- whining, bitching, blaming, bullying, self-indulging, lying, evading.
A cross between spoiled child, raging metro-sexual, girly-man, and sheltered prodigy.
Will obozo bring along his teleprompter?
Obama on 'The View'? American's enemies must be scared sh*tless... s/
Metrosexual alert.
Why? Is she a lesbian?
Geez...Always a campaigner...never a president
He disgusts me.
I'm far beyond disgust for this ********
Going on that show is pathetic. Could he possibly be more ghetto?
he's a metrosexual, what do you expect.
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin sings with Russian spy 'hottie' Anna Chapman and shows up at biker rally dressed in black and riding a Harley.
The US pResident Zero goes on 'The View' to whine about how unfairly he's treated.
Miss President Bush yet?
This guy is GAY, GAY, GAY!
Observe his body language, his fruitiness, his sissyness.
Everytime I think of this loser , I think this guy probably never changed a car tire, let alone knew how, ever reading the instructions on the jack!!!
I laugh at his BP statement... "looking for someone's ass to kick". The only ass that would be kicked in a parking lot brawl would be his sissy kenyan boy-ass"
What a F'n wuss.
Desperate move by a desperate usurper.
Do they have a couch he can jump up and down on?
I'm giving 100 to 1 odds that Kagan will come out asa soon as she is sworn in.
Kagan will "come out"? I find it funny how butt-ugly teat-trolls like Rosie O "come out" and say they're lezbians....like they have a choice or somethin.
I can't stand that show. >shudder<
But you can bull$hit the people on the View every f'n time.
**Ill predict now that Joy Behar will be wearing knee pads.**
That is almost the same thing I posted yesterday.
I think Rush saw the thread ;-)
Yep, I heard him start his show with that comment today.
Paging Larry Sinclair...the White House on line 1.
Zero evidently needed a vigorous and thorough ego massage.

DENVER - The Denver Broncos' quest for a third consecutive Super Bowl title was over almost as soon as it began.
John Elway had retired, paving the way for Brian Griese. Terrell Davis suffered a knee injury while making a tackle on an interception return. Shannon Sharpe soon joined Davis on the bench with an injury. The Broncos started 0-4.
"We weren't even close, for a number of reasons," coach Mike Shanahan said.
N. England at Denver
The Matchup: New England Patriots (11-6) at Denver Broncos (13-3), 7 tonight, Invesco Field, Denver.
Tuning In: KFDA-TV, 7 p.m.; KZRK AM-1550, 6:45 p.m.
The Line: Denver is a three-point favorite (Glantz-Culver Line).
The New England Patriots will visit the Broncos today for a playoff game that could move them two wins away from their third straight championship.
It's an unprecedented feat and, much like hitting .400 in baseball or breaking 60 on the PGA Tour, it has long stood as one of the most elusive of challenges in sports. And while every sports fan knows what an amazing feat it would be, nobody relates to it as do Denver players who were around in 1999, the last time anyone in the league had a chance.
"It's impossible," defensive lineman Trevor Pryce said. "I have one statement: I went to the Pro Bowl the year the Ravens won it. Ray Lewis was at the table, talking crazy about repeats and three-peats. I said, 'OK, remember this. You've got an 'X' on your back. We had it twice. It's hard to win it. You will not win it again.' And they didn't."
In one sense, the Patriots have been lucky in that they have been able to keep their core together and still have the means to fill in missing pieces. Part of that is because some of their best veterans - such as Troy Brown and Tedy Bruschi - have been willing to play for less in New England than they could have gotten elsewhere.
But if it's not one thing, it's another.
This season, injuries almost did in the Patriots. Bruschi, Richard Seymour, Rodney Harrison. Corey Dillon, Matt Light, Kevin Faulk. All are key cogs who missed significant time. When the Patriots visited Denver for a regular-season game Oct. 16, they barely resembled playoff material, let alone a wannabe dynasty.
A weakened defense and a struggling offensive line that left Tom Brady open to a beating were big reasons they fell behind 28-3. Their championship mentality is a big reason they rallied and nearly tied it before falling 28-20.
"There are a lot of things that are different" between now and then, Brady said. "I don't want to sit up here and rattle off all the things that I think we can accomplish. We have to just play better football."
Since then, they certainly have. During the final six games of the regular season, they allowed 2.9 yards per run. Brady has thrown for a career-high 4,110 yards. They won six of seven before falling in the regular-season finale, a game in which many starters were rested.
Still, all those stats only speak to the bigger point - that the Patriots are champions, they know how to win, and they know how to do it with everyone else targeting them.
"It's why they are what they are," Shanahan said. "They've got a chance to do something pretty special."
Six players remain from Denver's last Super Bowl team, and much has been made of the fact that the Broncos haven't won a playoff game in seven years.
New England (11-6) at Denver (13-3)
TIME: 7 p.m.
LINE: Broncos by 3
FACTS: During New England's run to three Super Bowl titles (2001, 2003-04) they were 2-0 as a visitor. In 1985, the Patriots became the first, and only, team to win three in a row on the road and reach the Super Bowl. ... In Denver's 28-20 victory over New England on Oct. 16, the Broncos' average starting field position was their 17, the worst for any team in a game this season. Two of the Broncos' four touchdowns were the result of back-to-back 97- and 91-yard drives. Only one other team went 90 yards on New England this season -- the Saints, and they also did it twice. ... Denver went undefeated at home for the fifth time in history. The last two times occurred in 1997-98, seasons in which it won the Super Bowl. The Broncos also went unbeaten at home in 1981 and didn't make the playoffs. ... The Patriots have outgained foes by an average of 21.8 yards a game, the worst norm among the final eight. In New England's 2001 Super season, they were outgained by 29.4 a game in the regular season, the worst average in history for any team that reached the NFL title game. ... Denver is 11-4-1 against the spread, the best mark in the league this season.
ANALYSIS: The Patriots have had the league's top rushing defense the second half of the season thanks in large part to the return of injured stalwarts Richard Seymour and Tedy Bruschi. But Bruschi's a question mark even if he's not on the injury report (knee, calf), and Broncos QB Jake Plummer was bold enough to admit New England's defense isn't the same without him in there. Not to mention Denver has the league's second most productive running offense and averages 4.7 a rush. New England's rush norm of 3.4 is third worst in the league. Shouldn't be too hard for Denver.
FORECAST: Broncos 31, Patriots 19

Last month, 10 up-and-coming MCs started getting fresh like it was their first day of school. They had to be camera-ready to shoot the annual "Freshmen 10" issue of XXL magazine. The special edition of the publication has become a hip-hop tradition, as they give the nod to 10 mic masters they feel will be the next big stars.
In 2008, names like Saigon, Lil Boosie and Plies made the cut, while last year, B.o.B, Charles Hamilton, Wale and Asher Roth graced the cover. Other members of the '09 class were Kid Cudi, Ace Hood, Curren$y, Blu, Mickey Factz and Cory Gunz.
XXL Editor in Chief Vanessa Satten said the editorial staff started deciding the 2010 class two months ago. Besides their own research, they also took recommendations from the magazine's editors at large and freelance writers.
"It's always interesting to assemble the guys, because you don't know what kind of vibe you're gonna get," Satten said about the photo shoot. "The first [class in 2008], they were kinda brooding. They were kind of boring on the actual shoot. The second one, they were exciting. This year, we didn't know what to expect from them, because the first two [classes] were so opposite of each other. You never know what you can expect when you get those 10 rappers together. It could be pretty much anything.
"You're not dealing with divas like you normally do with a bigger cover," she added. "But at the same time, you're dealing with people who've got these insecurities, who are not used to the situation and not as recognizable. You gotta get them to be a bit more animated and be a little bit more interesting so the photos could be spectacular. It's a little different when you put a bigger star on the cover."
Satten played it close to the vest when asked who some of the names were, but she did say the new set is different from '09.
"Last year, in general, the class was more Internet-driven," she said. "It was kind of a different class. The office would make fun — it was more of a nerdy class. The rappers involved might get offended by that, but it was definitely to the direction of the Internet audience, the Internet rappers. This [new] class is a mix of that and a little bit more street. And more of hodgepodge."
A question Satten said she hears a lot is whether Drake will be on this year's cover. Some fans where shocked that was omitted from the '09 class. But as Satten pointed out, his So Far Gone mixtape came out just about the same time as the issue hit newsstands.
"As of right now, he doesn't have an album," Satten said of Drake. "But he is technically a freshmen to us. He might not think so or think he's beyond that now."
The "Freshmen 10" issues lands on stands in March. Satten said there will be a DJ Whoo Kid mixtape to promote the issue sometime in the near future, as well as a party and a tour with some of the artists.

Detailed Description:
Patients with a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, called follicular lymphoma and have not yet had previous systemic treatment, such as chemotherapy or immunotherapy will be invited to participate. This research study is being conducted in order to evaluate the combination of lowdose methotrexate and Iodine I 131 tositumomab (Bexxar) with regards to whether the combination will reduce the occurrence of the HAMA (Human Anti-Mouse Antibody) response. HAMA is an immune reaction against the tositumomab protein. Symptoms arising from HAMA can range from a mild form, like a rash, to a more extreme and possibly life-threatening level. HAMA can also decrease the effectiveness of the treatment, or create a future reaction if a patient is given another treatment containing mouse antibodies. In addition to evaluating the occurrence of HAMA, this research study will also look at the short and long-term effectiveness of this combination in the treatment of lymphoma, as well as its safety.

Low dose methotrexate and Bexxar
Drug: Low dose methotrexate and Bexxar
Iodine I 131 tositumomab (Bexxar) is a radioimmunotherapy (RIT) drug. RIT is a treatment strategy designed to target radiation specifically to cancer cells by attaching a radioactive atom to a monoclonal antibody, an immune system protein that binds to a particular protein. The Iodine I 131 tositumomab (Bexxar) therapeutic regimen is delivered in two sets of intravenous infusions given about 7 days apart. Nonradioactive Tositumomab is given before both the "dosimetric" infusion and the "therapeutic" infusion to improve distribution of these doses throughout the body. Methotrexate is an antifolate drug. It interferes with cells' ability to copy their DNA. This mainly affects cells that are dividing frequently, such as immune system cells and cancer cells. Methotrexate will be used in this study to try to prevent the occurrence of HAMA by limiting your body's ability to produce anti mouse antibodies.
Other Name: Iodine I 131 tositumomab
Detailed Description:
This is a single-arm, single institution, Phase II study to test the use of low-dose methotrexate in combination with I-131 tositumomab for its ability to lower the rate of (human anti-mouse antibody) HAMA formation in patients with previously untreated low-grade follicular lymphoma. Low-dose methotrexate will be given beginning 3 weeks prior to the first infusion of I-131 tositumomab (4 weekly doses) and continued for 6 weeks (10 total doses), the period of time during which the development of HAMA is most detrimental. A total of 61 patients will be enrolled. The primary endpoint of the study is the determination of the rate of HAMA conversion within the first seven weeks following treatment. The secondary endpoints include response rates, progression-free and overall survival, safety, and evaluation of the effect of methotrexate on blood lymphocyte subsets.

The Future Leaders Fund
Here at Plas y Brenin National Mountain Centre, we believe in a healthy sense of adventure, and encourage participation in a Sporting Habit for Life. The most effective way to make sure as many young people as possible across the country are getting out, getting fit and getting happy is to train the trainers. We believe in the vital role that volunteer leaders play in their local communities, and we understand that the barriers to access that all-important training are more challenging than ever.
The National Mountain Centre trains people on the basis of talent, enthusiasm and commitment. We believe it should never be on the basis of your ability to pay. That's why we have created this fund to help support the volunteer leaders of the future – The Future Leaders Fund – to make sure that the next generation has the opportunity to enjoy a healthy and happy sporting habit for life.
What Is The Fund For?
We have a pot of money available to help volunteer leaders in the outdoors access the training they need and deserve in order for them to perform better as a leader or coach in mountain sports.
Currently aimed at furthering hillwalking, mountaineering, climbing, mountain biking and paddlesports in England, the funding available comes in the form of a direct subsidy on training or assessment courses at Plas y Brenin, The National Mountain Sports Centre.
The amount of subsidy is linked to an index of areas where those interested in becoming outdoor leaders may be lacking in opportunity or advantage.
In short, The Future Leaders Fund makes the training you need as a volunteer leader more affordable.
The training and assessment courses included are:
- Climbing Wall Award Training and Assessment
- Single Pitch Award Training and Assessment
- Hill Skills
- Mountain Skills
- Lowland Leader Award Training and Assessment
- Hill and Moorland Leader Training and Assessment
- Expediton Skills
- Mountain Leader Training and Assessment (Summer)
- British Cycling Level 2 MTB Leadership Training and Assessment
- British Cycling Level 3 MTB Leadership Training and Assessment
- BCU 2 Star Training and Assessment
- BCU 3 Star Training and Assessment in White Water Kayak, Canoe and Sea Kayak
- BCU 4 Star Training, Preparation and Assessment in White Water Kayak, Canoe and Sea Kayak
- BCU 5 Star Preparation and Assessment in White Water Kayak, Canoe and Sea Kayak
- BCU Level 1 Coach Award
- BCU Level 2 Coach Award Training and Assessment
- BCU Moderate Water Training and Assessment in White Water Kayak, Canoe and Sea Kayak
- BCU Advanced Water Training and Assessment Sea Kayak
- BCU Foundation Safety and Rescue
- BCU White Water Safety and Rescue
- BCU Advanced White Water Safety and Rescue
Funding is only available for residential places on the above courses
Who Can Apply?
Any volunteer leader in England with a genuine commitment to encouraging and developing others in the outdoors.
Currently the fund is available to support leaders in hillwalking, mountaineering, climbing, mountain biking and paddlesports in areas of England where leaders and young people may be lacking in opportunity or advantage.
Three are no age restrictions although you must be old enough to be eligible to undertake the training or assessment course you are applying for according to the conditions of the relevant National Governing Body.
Who Cannot Apply?
As the fund is aimed at the volunteer leaders, if you are a professional leaders or coach, you will not be successful in your application.
If you do not operate as a volunteer in any area listed on the 'Future Leaders Area Index' you will not be successful in your application.
If you do not meet the pre-requirements set out by the National Governing body for the training or assessment course you are applying for, you will not be successful in your application.
How Much Money?
The amount of subsidy is linked to an index of areas where those interested in becoming outdoor leaders may be lacking in opportunity or advantage.
There are three zones within the Future Leaders Fund area index (below). Volunteer leaders or coaches operating within each zone are eligible for a specific level of subsidy.
Areas Eligible For Funding
Red Zone: 75% subsidy
Blue Zone: 50% subsidy
Green Zone: 25% subsidy
How Do I Apply?
Carefully fill in submit the online application form, making sure that you add a referee whom you have checked with that it is okay for Plas y Brenin to contact (usually via e-mail). Once we have verified your involvement with the group (by contacting your referee) and confirmed your membership number with the voluntary organisation, we will process your application and let you know if you have been successful.
What Happens Next?
We will process your application. We may contact you or the referees you listed in your application for more information. We will notify you of the outcome within three weeks of application.
If your application is successful, you will be asked to fill in an online booking form for the course of your choice. At this point you will be required to pay the balance of your course fee (the course fee minus the level of subsidy applicable in the Future Leaders Fund Area index zone you have applied for).
Remember there may be a registration fee with the scheme of your choice. See Mountain Training's website for details of their awards, See British Cycling's website for details of their awards and See the BCU's website for details of their awards
What More Can I Do?
Because this is a contribution funding grant, you still have some money to fork out to cover the balance of your course fee. If that is a problem for you, you may be able to raise the additional money by a simple fundraising or sponsorship event or process.
With a little effort and imagination, this personal fundraising can be extremely effective.
To help you in this area we've put together a sponsorship and fundraising pack full of ideas, advice and suggestions to help you raise the cash.
Download the sponsorship and fundraising pack here.
We appreciate you'll still have to find the cash to pay for your travel to and from Plas y Brenin so we even have ways we can help you there. You can make further savings by taking advantage of our travel share message board to arrange car sharing or, if you choose to travel by train our free minibus shuttle will pick you up and drop you off at Llandudno Junction station, saving you the expensive 20 mile transfer cost.
Generous donations from these organisations make The Future Leaders Fund possible.

Two weeks ago I toured around different parts of Italy. Italy is obviously home to the most delicious food in the world, in my opinion. The cities are beautiful and so much fun, but the food is what sold me. This is no Olive Garden. Italian food is part of the Mediterranean diet so it is considered quite healthy, to the surprise of many. There are three major differences between genuine Italian cuisine and what Americans think is Italian. First, the quality of the ingredients is crucial in... Read More

Thank you for your time. I am a professional technician in Texas and have had a continuing issue with the brake light switch harness melting on this car for a year now. I have replace the switch, harness, and shift interlock solenoid with motorcraft parts and still had the melting issue. I then found a TSB in our software nuber "02-13-6". This states that the harness be replace with kit #2W1Z-14A411-AAA". I ordered the harness from Ford and installed per the bulletin, which in fact states "the harness is polarity sensitive" (I still can't understand this)yet the harness has already started to melt after one week. My local ford dealer has been of no help and other freinds in the industry have not had an issue like this one. Any thoughts from you would be of great help. Starting to get embarrassing. Gary

You need to wire in a relay....http://www.lincolnsonline.com/tech/00114.html
ANSWER by Bret Bodas , November 30, 2009
Hey Gary, Welcome to RepairPal, good question, and great info. I'm looking at the wiring diagram, and I'm not quite clear on which wire(s) is melting. I see the LG/RD wire from the fuse to the switch, then the LG wire to the Central Junction box. Are these connected correctly (Polarity issue referred to in the TSB?) Is it one or both of these wires? What is the current draw when activating the brake lights?
COMMENT by GMAN1957 , November 30, 2009
Thank you bretb for your response. The wire in question is the LG/RD wire from the fuse panel that continues to melt the harness connector. The current draw is 3.7 amps with the brake pedal applied. The new pigtail has been installed per the directions stated in the TSB. The only difference between the old and new harness is the original harness is made with 18ga. wire and the new one is made from 16ga. wire. I have returned the car to the customer after tightening up the terminals and replacing the stop light switch until I can try to come up with another solution. Thank god for tolerant people in this day and age. If you need more info, I can call on them to come by for further testing. Gary
COMMENT by Bret Bodas , December 01, 2009
Gary, It sounds like the 18 gauge wire was not able to handle the current, although it should handle 4 amps without a problem. The fact that the new harness has 16 gauge wire leads me to believe this might be a common problem. Do you think there are some driver habits that are contributing to this? Resting their foot on the brake? Is it possible there is an amperage spike after the brake has been applied for awhile? Anyway, glad to hear they are working with you on this, you sound like a very thorough and professional tech. Keep up the good work, let me know if this fixes this problem, and feel free to ask any other questions! Bret
COMMENT by GMAN1957 , December 01, 2009
Thank you for all your help with this issue. After seeing the new harness that Ford sent me per the TSB, I thought the same thing about the gauge of the wire and also felt certain that this would resolve the problem. I will talk to my customer about "his wifes" driving habits to verify. I will also have them stop by for another current draw test to see if there could be a spike after applying the brakes. Thank you again and will let you know the outcome. Gary
COMMENT by Visitor , November 28, 2010
Ive had the same issue, now for a while, the cable keeps wearing down from the burn. I just added 10 gauge to the tip the what seems to be original red cable is getting shorter and now it may start from where i attached the 10 gauge, not sure whats the problem. i know the pedal stays up and unless its something thats weared out and the pedal is slightly weighing down to activate the switch, but the brake light doesnt stay on by tis self though. Gonna try switching the cables, the other cable seems to be just fine.
COMMENT by jfdc1313 , November 28, 2010
I posted that last one aswell, thank you if anyone has anything on this issue relly annoying. Im going to get the book from my friend too so i may see whats the wiring looking like to test the amperage........ respectfully with humble patience, jose

i have the same melting problem on my 1998. got to switch it again thanks.
COMMENT by boater08 , May 03, 2012
I have the same issue, the wires to the break switch get hot and melt everything. Does anyone know what causes this? I replaced the break light switch but the wires keep getting hot.
COMMENT by shellrock , August 05, 2013
did anyone ever get a real solution to this problem ? i need help i have did all of this still melting
ANSWER by priorities1st , June 03, 2015
I know this post is old, but I had the same issue with my 98 Lincoln Town car, I kept replacing the switch and harness because it would melt. ( Which I purchased from the auto part store) Before paying the dealership $3++ replace the switch because I already knew how, I purchased the harness and switch directly from the dealership. Following the directions that came with the harness, replaced them both and have not had a problem since.

Luckily the 3 times I towed it back to the shop, they repaired it as warranty on the repaired parts...minimal out of pocket. Very frustrating!!! There's got to be a fix for this, right???

I am having the same problem, with different symptoms. 9 months ago, I lost my brake lights. when I went to replace the brake light switch, the connector was indeed melted. I repaired the harness with common blade connectors, when I put the new switch in, it would not activate the brake lights. I tried actuating the switch manually, and the switch operated as advertised, so I inserted a .040" shim between the switch and the brake rod, and all was good. Fast forward 9 months. I now have a problem in which the brake lights won't go off. I removed the switch and the .040" shim, and the switch is working properly. I removed the shim and reinstalled the switch and now have no brake lights again. I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure this out, and I'm running out of hair. Please Help !!!
