First Strike
The Mobile Board of Water and Sewer Commissioners uses lightning dissipaters, ½-inch diameter, 18-inch-long rods made of stainless steel that return small lightning strikes back into the atmosphere (larger strikes are routed to ground rods). Photos: McCrory & Williams Inc.
Transient voltage surge suppressors should be installed on all AC and DC electrical circuits, including the power-source side and the load side of the transfer switch that's used to switch from the utility company to a generator.
Surge suppressors, such as this one mounted to an antenna cable, should be part of any complete lightning protection system.
Since 2000, Mobile, Ala., has undergone a major project to protect its buildings and equipment from persistent lightning strikes. The Mobile Board of Water and Sewer Commissioners (also known as Mobile Area Water and Sewer System, MAWSS) has been installing lightning protection systems with the help of McCrory & Williams Inc., and has developed a standard for use in future projects.
The standard was officially published in July 2007 on the board's Web site (mawss.com). At the request of the board, McCrory & Williams prepared the specifications, which were approved by the board and will now be used as a standard for all future lightning protection projects.
The standard is supplemental to two nationally recognized industry standards for lightning protection: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Standards for Safety, Lightning Protection Components, UL 96 A and the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) 780 Standards for the installation of Lightning Protection Systems. The installer for lightning protection systems should follow the UL and NFPA standards and should provide proof of an Underwriters Laboratories Master Label certificate.
A complete lightning protection system is threefold: It should include the use of lightning rods on building and facility rooftops; surge suppressors on all incoming lines for power, telephone, and computer lines; and proper grounding. So when budget time comes around, use the following information to your advantage when lobbying for this equipment:
The industry typically uses three types of lightning rods:
When installing the rods, workers should understand that the lightning protection system for each structure should be designed to provide a Faraday Cage (an enclosure that blocks out external electrical fields) around the structure to delay or dissipate the formation of lightning strikes.
Installers should mount individual stream-delaying air terminals on the top of the structure on all outside corners at 20-foot intervals around the perimeter and at 50-foot intervals across the top. Each air terminal must be provided with two electrically conductive paths to ground. A common wire that extends down the side of the building and is attached to a ground rod at intervals of no more than 100 feet should bond all lightning rods.
All equipment that protrudes above the roof line, including air conditioners, air handlers, vents, air conditioning ducts, aerator mixer motors, and relief valves, must have its own air terminals that are properly bonded to the ground rods for that building. Air terminals should be 18 inches higher than the equipment.
Steel parts of electrically conductive structures such as light poles, towers, and steel superstructures should not be used because they corrode or rust over time and therefore lose their ability to provide electrical continuity to adjacent parts. That is especially true in coastal areas and inside sewer plants where corrosive gases are present.
Also discouraged is the use of gutters or metal down spouts for conductors between air terminals and ground rods. In both cases it is better to utilize a separate continuous piece of wire.

Could Rihanna actually be pregnant? She recently did what many pregnant women do - splashed a lot of cash at a baby boutique. The NY Daily News reported on Thursday, April 24, that the Barbadian pop star recently went on a shopping spree at Petit Tresor, a baby boutique in West Hollywood.
There isn't a lot of details on her visit, other than she wore pinstripes with Daisy Dukes and that witnesses spotted her bodyguard leaving the store carrying six bags. Photos from the Daily Mail show that she actually wore a white pinstripe blazer, Daisy Dukes and strappy stilettos for her shopping trip. Helping to fueling the pregnancy rumors, the blazer top that she wore for her shopping trip was quite roomy, roomy enough to hide a small baby bump.
She later changed into an oversized denim jacket, black dress and red leather thigh-high boots for dinner that night. Photos show her protectively covering her body up with the boxy jacket, with her arms crossed above her belly.
There has been rumors that Rihanna is pregnant, with the father either being Drake, who she has been hanging out with a lot lately, or Chris Brown, the ex-boyfriend with whom she just can't cut ties with. One website has declared that the baby's father is definitely Chris, pointing out that Rihanna secretly visited him in rehab, a visit that they believe involved more than just talking.
Of course, Rihanna could have just been shopping at the baby boutique for friends and/or family. Indeed, the Daily Mail photo of her bodyguard carrying the shopping bags out of the baby boutique shows that the shopping bags are actually all the same size, with wrapping tissue peeking out, suggesting that the items are gifts. Rihanna also recently Instagrammed a photo of herself wearing see-through swimsuit, showing a very unpregnant looking belly.

In Part 2 of the live Skype session held at the Sun Gallery on June 17, 2014, part-time Professor Paul Beckwith took questions from the audience about climate change, with methane being one of the over-riding topics of concerns posed by concerned show attendees.
As part of the art show at the gallery: A Volatile Terrain: The Art of Climate Change, participants were encouraged to ask the professor any questions they had about climate change. Many of the interesting topics that were covered were:
- Methane gas and its role in super heating the atmosphere
- The rise in methane that has been observed since 2007
- The AMEG (Arctic Methane Emergency Group) and it's concerns about a rapid release of methane and what it could do to current predictions about future climate change
- The lack of coverage on methane in the latest IPCC report
- Concerns about fracking and how it impacts the earth, including human induced earthquakes
- The rise of earthquakes and volcanic activity globally, and how climate change and the melting ice masses impact the earth (everything is connected)
- The immediate need to drastically reduce the use of fossil fuels in the impending climate crisis
- How politics and special interest groups play a role in the delay of climate change action
- The possibility of geo-engineering in the Arctic region to slow down and /or halt a complete melt down of the Arctic
- What the negative and positive consequences of geo-engineering could mean to the earth and its inhabitants
- The expected doubling and tripling of food prices within the next 2-4 years because of massive crop failures and drought
- The "tipping point in human behavior" which has not yet happened among the masses
- Future extreme weather events which are expected to rise exponentially
In Part 1 of the live Skype session Beckwith introduces himself, his background and gives an overview of the climate system. In Part 3 more questions are taken from social media, which is an element of the show that was designed to engage audience participation to learn about climate change. The show will be running till July 27 at the Sun Gallery at 1015 E St in Hayward, Ca. Gallery hours are Thursday through Sunday from 11-5.
This Thursday June 24 between 6-7 the gallery will be holding its last event of the show which will be a special Skype session with children. Families are encouraged to attend and bring their children to ask the Professor questions about climate change, endangered species, ocean acidification and climate change education.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Marcus Moore and Jeff Varem each scored 21 points as Washington State kept its Pac-10 Tournament hopes alive with an 83-70 win over Arizona State here Thursday night.
Thomas Kelati added 14 points for the Cougars (12-13, 6-9 Pac-10), who maintained their hold on eighth place in the league standings - the cutoff point to qualify for the conference tournament.
Arizona State (10-15, 4-12) remained in the Pac-10 cellar despite Ike Diogu's 28 points.
The Sun Devils closed to 62-58 with 6:10 left before Marcus Moore gave the Cougars some breathing room with a leaner off the glass and a reverse layup.
Varem later added seven straight points, including a 3-point play, that put the Cougars ahead 73-63 with 3:23 remaining.
Arizona State had led 41-37 at halftime behind Diogu's 24 points. He closed the half with 21 points on 7-of-10 shooting from the field.
Washington State trailed 47-41 with 15:50 to play before Moore and Varem keyed a comeback.
Jamal Hill finished with 14 points and Stevie Moore 10 for the Sun Devils.

"Sex Sent Me to the ER" is returning to primetime cable TV this spring, according to a press announcement from TLC on March 26, 2014. The sexy series, which may serve as a cautionary tale or a source of bedroom ideas, premieres on Saturday, April 12, 2014 (9 p.m. ET/PT) and runs through the end of the year.
The series bares all that goes on behind bedroom doors and straight into emergency wards, making for some salacious tales of sexual exploits gone outrageously wrong. Everyday people share their most embarrassing intimate exploits and the results can be hilarious.
The stories are retold by emergency room physicians and the actual couples who, got into a fix and needed a doctor to fix it. The first four episodes described the stories a couple who tried tree sex, vampire bride sex, head pounding sex with a 440 pound virgin, a woman experiencing a two-hour orgasm and a fight over a broken penis. See the attached photo slideshow for pictures and brief descriptions of these episodes.
The series will heat up with more real-life, humorous stories of what happens when passion turns to panic and leads to the ER in 35 brand-new episodes. Featured stories include an adventurous couple whose taste for candy and sex land them in the ER, a man and woman who bring their sex life down the grocery store aisle, and a scientist who aspires to become one with nature, but mistakenly gets a little too close for comfort when he does so while buck naked.
"Sex Sent Me to the ER," which first premiered in Dec., 2013, is produced by GRB Entertainment for

ABC's new series "Resurrection" began with a bang as the series premiere aired on March 9. This show echoes the eeriness of 'The Village' and the suspense of 'The Sixth Sense' with its intricately woven plot and red symbolism. It promises to unveil a host of new characters who return from the dead seemingly unscathed.
This week's episode began with the return of 8-year-old Jacob who reportedly died 32 years ago in a drowning accident. His aging parents, now in their 60's, struggle to come to terms with the impossible reality that their son has returned from the grave. Meanwhile Jacob's childhood best friend, who is now a pastor, struggles to accept this new reality as a miracle from God.
Jacob isn't talking other than providing new details about his own death and the death of his aunt, alerting the family to the presence of a man at the drowning. According to Jacob, the circumstances of his drowning don't quite match up with what everyone was told. Until now, his family believed Jacob fell in the river and his aunt died trying to save him.
Jacob provides new information claiming he tried to save his aunt and drowned in the process. He places a man at the scene that appears to have tried to save his aunt. We later learn that the aunt was having an affair with this mysterious man. How that plays into the deaths is unclear.
DNA testing confirms that Jacob is who he says he is, leaving his parents to ponder whom they buried 32 years ago.
Like "The Village" and "The Sixth Sense", the color red is seen throughout the show in connection with those who return from the dead. Jacob wears the red jersey he awakes in throughout the episode, despite the passage of several days, and even wears it when admitted to the hospital for seizures.
A mysterious man who hitchhikes into town sports a red cap and is seen lurking in the background observing Jacob. In the final scene viewers discover the mysterious man in the red cap has also returned from the dead and is reunited with his daughter.
Although the significance of red is not known at this time, it may be to alert the viewer than something is amiss. Like "The Village" and "The Sixth Sense" is seems likely the color red is symbolic of danger or a signal that things are not as they seem.
Tune in to "Resurrection" on Sunday nights at 9/8 Central on ABC to find out how this mysterious series unfolds.

A while ago I talked with Jim Sterne about his latest book Social Media Metrics, a must for everyone that wants to have a measured and valuable social media marketing approach. Read Jim's thoughts on social media KPIs and metrics. In a short interview I asked Jim what metrics and KPIs marketers should take into account regarding social media marketing. But I also wanted to know what he thought about all these new metrics and KPIs we are introducing all the time when it comes down to social media. What can be measured and what can't? This is what Jim answered: "Social media KPIs are all dependent on the individual organization and its goals. But generally, we are looking at 'impressions' or reach. How many people had the opportunity to see the message? Next, we want to track influence to see whom we should be catering to and making sure we treat them well. Then, there's the question of sentiment - something we may never be able to monitor technically - to help us get a handle on … [Read more...]

The key to establishing and maintaining a successful restaurant chain is to identify a niche and fill it by offering quality food and good service at reasonable prices and on a consistent basis. This is no small task and few are the restaurant chains that rise to fulfill these criteria. P.F. Chang's is a good example of one such success. By preparing authentic Chinese dishes using high quality ingredients served in a contemporary Western setting, this chain has established a successful formula and a high reputation across the country.
The P.F. Chang's in Waikiki is an excellent example what makes P. F. Chang's so successful. Located on the Beachwalk end of the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, it offers both indoor and outdoor dining on two levels. Dining on the patio offers an unsurpassed people-watching experience. The sleek, modern décor offers few hints of the exotic fare that follows.
The vast menu is entirely Chinese-inspired, but with many of the dishes updated to appeal to a broader audience. With such wide choice of starters, soups, noodles and entrees, here are a few that offer a cross-section of the menu.
For starters, the Chang's chicken lettuce wraps are the hands-down favorite. Quickly cooked spiced minced chicken is served with cool lettuce cups for light and refreshing appetizer. There is also a vegetarian version that substitutes wok-seared tofu for the chicken.
Chang's wonton soup is made to order and features Pork wontons, mushrooms, spinach, water chestnuts, chicken and shrimp in a homemade chicken broth.
As for the entrees, the lemon pepper shrimp is a popular choice with plump, tender shrimp that are flashed-cooked with a light sauce that is tangy but with a hint of sweetness. The wok-seared beef is another favorite and is a flavorful dish with mushrooms and sweet peppers. Unless stated, most entrees do not come with vegetables, which offers the opportunity to try a side of the sautéed spinach with garlic or perhaps the Szechuan style asparagus. For noodle lovers, P.F. Chang's offers oodles of choices, including spicy Dan Dan noodles, which consists of scallions, garlic and chili peppers stir-fried with ground chicken and served over hot egg noodles and garnished with julienne cucumbers and bean sprouts.
If you still have room for dessert, you might want to try the Great Wall of Chocolate- six layers of rich chocolate cake frosted with semi-sweet chocolate chips served with raspberry sauce.
P.F. Chang's offers extensive and well-rounded wine and sake lists, a good selection of bottled and on-tap beers, plus a full bar that offers all fancy cocktails you would expect to find in this setting. Service is efficient and friendly. The staff is very adept at handling a high volume of diners without making the meal seemed rushed.
For great Chinese-inspired food served in a comfortable, upscale atmosphere, you can't be P.F. Chang's.

Deficiency Anemias in early Mongolian Nomads.
This paper describes pathological lesions attributed to Iron Deficiency Anemias in human skeletal remains from archaeological sites dating from Early Iron and Bronze Age (7th century BC) to 1st-2nd century AD contexts in Western and Central Mongolia. The various pathological changes provide useful information about nomadic living conditions in this time period and suggest general health status of these people. This study presents the lesions and implied health conditions of Chandman (Bronze and Iron age) and Hunnu (BC 209 - AD 93) nomadic populations from Mongolia. Here I will talk about implied health conditions through the distributions of Cribra Orbitalia among Bronze and Iron Age nomadic populations from Mongolia. The collections sampled for this presentation are from the Late Bronze site of Chandman, and the Hunnu period site of Borkhan Tolgoi, curated in the Department of Anthropology, Institute of Archaeology of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences. Both sexes and all age categories are represented in these materials. In these samples from both historical periods, cribra orbitalia is noted at relatively high frequencies. This is suggestive of iron deficiency anemias during childhood and in women.
historic, and archaeological background
Chandman site dates from the 7-3rd century B.C. It is located in
Western Mongolia. The necropolis is located in the Chandman Mountains near the
Uvs aimag city of Ulaangom. Chandmans' position is –49' N, 92' E, and it
has a continental climate, with an average annual temperature of –1C. The
winter (October to April) is cold (with temperatures often dropping to –35 C
in January and February), whereas summer (July to September) is pleasant (with
temperatures sometimes as high as 22 C). Precipitation
is light (300-400 mm per year), because of its relatively high altitude (921 m)
(The Mongolian physical geography, 1969). From the 1972 to 1974, the burial site
was wholly excavated by Mongolian-Russian expedition, by archaeologist Navaan,
Tseveendorj (1978) and Bolkov,
in the Egiin Gol valley of northern Mongolia were occupied from approximately
the 3rd century B.C to the 2nd century A.D. The necropolis
of Borkhan Tolgoi is located in the Egiin Gol valley near the Egiin Gol river,
10 km from its confluence with the Selenge, a main tributary of lake Baikal. The
valley's position is –49.27' N, 103.30'E, and it has a continental
climate, with an average annual temperature of –1C. The winter (October to
April) is cold (with temperatures often dropping to –30 C in January and
February), whereas summer (July to September) is pleasant (with temperatures
sometimes as high as 22 C). As in
western Mongolia, precipitation here is light (300-400 mm per year). Because of
its relatively high altitude (885 m), the valley floor is covered with snow from
mid November to April, and ice thickness on the Selenge reaches 1.8 m during
this period (The Mongolian physical geography, 1969). From the 1997 to 2001, the
burial site was wholly excavated by French-Mongolian expedition, under the
sponsorship of UNESCO, by archaeologist Terbat (2003)
and Sheskar.
characteristics of The Bronze and Early Iron Age:
From the end of the Neolithic period the forefathers of the Mongols gradually progressed to the production of bronze implements. The earliest finds of metal implements date from the thirteenth to seventh centuries BC. A great number of bronze implements, various decorations and household utensils discovered in many parts of Mongolia. Rock pictures painted in red found on the territory of Mongolia date back to the Bronze age and are typical only of this region. They rock pictures also show stylized animals and human figures standing hand-in hand, with an eagle with its wings have been found in the territory of Mongolia.
In the Bronze Age great changes took place in the economy and culture of the ancient inhabitants of Central Asia.
Along with stone –cist graves, deer stones are also widely found in Mongolia. These are upright stone slabs decorated with stylized pictures of running deer and finely engraved drawings of knives, daggers, bows and arrows.
Historical background of the Hunnu Empire:
By the fifth to fourth centuries BC two tribal unions, Hunnu and Dümhü, had formed in Central Asia, and the latest historical and biological research, including the work ''The Hereditary Polymorphism and Genegeography of Mongolia's Population'' (1986) carried out by the Mongolian Dr. J.Batsuuri, suggests that at least some elements of the Hunnu tribal union were ancient Mongols.
By the third century BC the Hunnus had become the most powerful cattle-breeding tribe. They met their needs in food and clothing livestock produce and traded with their settled neighbours, mainly Chinese, for agricultural products, handicrafts and jewelry. But from the first century BC the Hunnus also began to cultivate land.
In excavations of the sites of ancient Hunnu towns, complex defensive structures, semi-subterranean dwelling pits with heating appliances, remains of workshop, crop-storage houses, iron works and various kinds of cast-iron ware have been discovered.
The Hunnus are known to have made different kinds of pottery, manually or on a potter's wheel, and to have created jewelry out of gold, silver and precious stones, s well as practising spinning and weaving.
The peak of the power of the Hunnu tribal union was in the third century BC, when the powerful empire which subsequently played a major role in the social and political history of Euro-Asian nomadic tribes took shape. The center of this empire, headed by the ruler Shan'yui, was in the basin of the Tuul river. The power was inherited in 209 BC by Modun.
Lands under Hunnu rule were divided into three parts: the central part comprised the nomadic horde of the Shan'yui, and the eastern and western parts were headed by the princes chosen by the Shan'yui from among his sons or relatives.
The Hunnus had their own written language, the symbols of which were similar to the letters of Orhon script.
However, the mighty empire of the nomads did not last long. After a fierce internal struggle, in AD53-55 it broke up into Southern and Northern Hunnu. In AD 93 the Northern Hunnus ceased to exist as an independent state: some 500,000 of them joined the Xian'pi tribe and assumed that tribal name. Some of the Northern Hunnus drifted away from their native territory to the Caspians steppes and moved on further west to the Danube-Carpathian valleys, where they formed a sizeable nomadic state under the leadership of Attila.
Material and Method.
The cranial samples used in this study were from collections of various periods. Two predominant series can be considered as the core of this study:
1. The Chandman material is of Bronze and Iron age (VII-III BC) date from Western Mongolia. This was excavated in 1972-1974 by the joint Mongolian-Russian expedition. The Bronze and Iron Age collection consists of the remains of approximately 108 individuals represented by generally complete individuals or by crania only.
2. The Egiin Gol material was excavated between 1998-1999 during a Mongolian–French collaborative expedition, the focus here is on the Hunnu period (BC 209- AD 93) from Central north Mongolia. The Hunnu collection represents approximately 72 skeletal individuals and 71 individuals represented by skulls only.
materials, also in the collections of the Department of Anthropology, Institute
of Archaeology, of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences, were examined
macroscopically. In addition to the macroscopic examination, were made for the
evaluation of pathological data. Traditional methods (Brothwell.1981,
Goodman, 1987; Ortner and Putshar, 1983) were used to determine sex, age and
pathological cases from the assembled crania.
and discussion.
1). Considering first the Bronze and Iron Age material from the Chandman Site in Western Mongolia. Of the 108 individual crania from the Chandman Nomadic population from Bronze and Iron age period, Cribra-Orbitalia was observed on 34 individuals (28.7 %). Of these, 15 are male (23.4 %), 10 are female (27.8 %) and 6 (75%) are subadult. Recording the distribution of the pathology, nodes are bilaterally distributed, with slightly more occurrences in the females and subadults. Listed by age differences, children have a 75.0 % occurrence, adults - 34.7%, old adults - 17.45%. As you can see from this, cribra-orbitalia was found to be much more common in children. Possibly many cases of childhood cribra-orbitalia must heal with advancing age or else lead to an early death in order to explain the lower incidence among adults.
2). The distribution of Cribra Orbitalia in human remains from the Hunnu period (BC 209- AD 93) Borkhan Tolgoi Site in the Egiin Gol valley of central north Mongolia is as follows:
Of the 71 individual crania from the site, 11 individuals (12.7 %) displayed this pathology. Of these, 2 are male (5.3 %), 5 are female (29.4 %) and 4 (25.0 %) are subadult. Recording the distribution of Cribra-Orbitalia, nodes are bilaterally distributed, with slightly more occurrences in the females and subadults.
distribution of Cribra orbitalia in the Chandman and Borkhan Tolgoi samples
suggests that in both the Bronze Age and Hunnu Period sites there is a sex based
difference in general health status. However, Cribra orbitalia is noted with the
highest frequencies in subadults (75%). This may suggest a recovery process, or
alternatively, that females have a higher differential survival rate with the
authors interpret Cribra orbitalia as a consequence of insufficient or shoddy
feeding. This is possible however it may also stem from some infectious diseases
such as malarias. In addition the bony response may be representative of more
than one type of anemias (Hengen, 1971; Marcsik, 1985).
way of regional population sample comparison, among reported West-European
series Cribra orbitalia is noted at approximately 10%-33% in adults, and 24%-59%
among subadults (Bujilova, 1995; Marcsik, 1975, 1985; Yankauskas, 1993).
(1984), studying the middle to late Archaic period in the American state of
South Carolina found the frequency of Cribra orbitalia to be approximately 23%
in the samples he examined. This time period corresponds to approximately the
early Iron Age in the Old World.
(1993) examined frequencies of Cribra orbitalia in early Japan (500 AD), noting
approximately13% among adults and 24% among children.
(1985) found Cribra orbitalia at nearly 59% in an Avar period Hungarian sample.
Now, to recapitulate
the Mongolian data, among the West-Mongolian early Iron Age sample Cribra
orbitalia is found in approximately 28% of adults, and approximately 85% of
subadults. Among the Central Northern Mongolian Hunnu period sample,
Cribra-orbitalia is found in approximately 14% of adults, and 25% of subadults.
These figures compare well with the New World and European data. Note in general
the highest percentages per capita carrying the condition are subadults.
high frequencies of Cribra orbitalia among the Mongolian Chandman and Hungarian
Avar children falls into place through the perspective of living stress induced
by the process of learning and mastering new territory. The people represented
by the Chandman burials were of a more heterogeneous makeup, as they were
connected with the melange of Europoid and Mongoloid components of that time in
that place. Handsuren, (1969),
T.Tot, Firshtein, (1971), Dorjsuren, (1961), Sukhbaatar (1971) suggest
population of Avar period (IY-YI AD) Hungary, was migration from Central Asia,
in particular from Mongolia of Jujan (IY-Y
AD) period.
researchers suggest Cribra-orbitalia represents a sequelae stemming from some
infectious diseases, for instance, some intestinal diseases, malaria and anemia,
etc (Hengen.1971; Marcsik.1975).
If we can safely
extrapolate the frequency of Cribra orbitalia among the Chandman subadults to a
larger sample, it is likely that a number of soft tissue conditions as noted
above may contribute to the skeletal expression of this pathology.
(1978) reporting demographic aspects of the Chandman series concludes that
infant death-rate frequencies correspond to particularities of physiological
development. She notes that failing immunity appears to come in the first months
of life, where intestinal problems begin when weaning from breastfeeding to
solid foods.
Cranial materials from Bronze and Iron Age to Hunnu period samples were examined for paleopathological information suggestive of iron deficiency anemias in early Mongolian Nomad populations.
The demographics as
well as pathology distributions among adults in these samples correspond
relatively well with comparative samples representing European and New World
populations, however a wider range of relative frequencies is found to occur
among subadults, for the various regions examined.
Cribra-orbitalia is found at relatively high levels among subadults
and in woman from
late Bronze early Iron age to Hunnu period in these samples from the Chandman
and Borkhan Tolgoi sites, representing nomadic populations. This appears to have
been a result of iron deficiency anemias, and some infection or parasitic
infestation likely due to generally unhealthy living conditions among Nomads

Today is Father's Day. My father has been gone since 1965, but I still remember him fondly as a jokester, a benevolent man, and the orchestrator of fun times.
In our family, there were six children including two sets of twins. Because times were lean, my mother was the one who had to shoulder the responsibility of the family. My dad was the fun guy, taking us out for ice cream, playing with squirt guns, and occasionally not enforcing my mom's strict rules of taking us to church every Sunday.
I was only 12 when my father passed away, and since my parents had been divorced since I was six, I didn't know him very well. I have heard stories of my friend's fathers that were unsettling. Stories about alcoholism and abuse permeated their tales, and I was thankful on some level that my father wasn't around. None of us had to shoulder any abuse from him.
To this day, I wonder how my life might have been different, if I had had my father around. My older sister was daddy's little girl, and I'm sure the memories of that relationship are still vivid to her today. He would dote on her, spoiled her, and on some level, I'm sure my dad was completely idolized by my older sister. His disappearance must have been a real shock to her.
But life isn't easy. Many men are expected to make a lot of money, come up with all the answers, and suck it in when it comes to difficult times. No wonder they die so young. I am glad that those roles are not as strictly enforced as they used to be. Many men are now househusbands, or the ones behind the scenes helping the family run smoothly. It seems like a much healthier way to live.
Regardless of the type of father that you had, I hope this day is a joyous one for you. I miss my father terribly, but I know someday we will be reunited, and we can play with squirt guns and eat ice cream once again.

I need to add iview containing website link on top of masthead location in Ajax frame work page in 7.3.
For this i created a ivew and added it to masthead container in framework page and moved it to top place.
But when preview the framework that iview is not showing in masthead container and its showing at the bottom of the page.
Pease let me know how to display the iview at the top of framework page.
Thanks in advance.
HI Suswaram,
Please refer the following document.
The document gives you an overview how to change look and feel of netweaver of portal. e.g adding footer on portal. This document can be helpful in achieving your implementation.
Best Regards,
Rajendra Kielka
Hi Suswaram,
have you checked the Fixed check box of the Masthead iview.
Hi Shrikant,
I checked the Fixed check box.
Hi All,
Thanks all for your inputs, to meet my requirement I created a new masthead application in NWDS and deployed into the server. Created the IView with this deployed application and assigned to framework page instead of standard Masthead IView. In the application it self I created the link to website link.
Hi Shyam,
How did you create the iview from the deployed application? I am unable to the copy the deployed application as a pcd object, rather I can only copy the individual iviews in it viz. Header, Logoff etc as pcd objects.
Can you please explain how did you create the iview from custom classic masthead application?
Can any one please let me know how can I add links in footer of portal 7.3. I have created some links which are available in masthead but I need to add those in footer of page. I have added the respective iView to the AFP with container masthead but I dont see any container for footer.
Please advice.

Campbell County's archive program now has a little more money to work with.
"It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end".
No one can deny that Adrion ("Adron") Baird's journey mattered—to many people.
The 78 year- old "Renaissance Man" died on April 5, after a valiant battle with acute leukemia.
It's a sobering realization that a homeless shelter may be needed by Campbell Countians. But at the same time it's reassuring to know there is a place to go for those in need.
Ray Perry, case manager with Scott County Homeless Shelter, attended the LaFollette City Council workshop last Monday to tell people about the resources available.
Up to 180 families utilized the homeless shelter last year; about 25 percent were from Campbell County, according to Perry.
The Campbell County grand jury returned 34 indictments on March 25.
Those indictments were: *Howard S. King, Matthew E. Hamblin and Charles F. Pittman, Jr.- aggravated criminal trespass, theft over $1,000, vandalism over $1,000
*Adam W. Carroll and Brandy M. Wilson- initiation of the process to meth manufacture, felony possession of drug paraphernalia, unlawful entering quarantined property, resisting arrest; *Adam W. Steakley- aggravated burglary, theft over $500
The following criminal cases were resolved last week with the use of plea agreements:
Tabitha Dawn Wilhoit Holstein- felony possession of drug paraphernalia; probation, court costs, $1,500 fine.
Wesley L. Powers- theft over $1,000, felony FTA; split confinement of nine months with a jail credit from July 4, 2010, court costs, $75 to ECF, restitution to victim.
Alice L. Chambers- felony possession of drug paraphernalia; two years probation, court costs, $500 to LPD drug fund.

Some folks learned the hard way on Friday night that drinking and driving doesn't mix well.
Just ask the people arrested on Friday night during a Governor's Highway Safety Roadblock.
Beginning at 9 p.m. officers with the Campbell County Sheriff's Department, the Tennessee Highway Patrol, Anderson County Sheriff's Department along with officers from LaFollette, Caryville and Jacksboro were joined by their counterparts from Cumberland County, Oneida, Roane County and Oak Ridge for the three-hour event.
Jacksboro residents will be heading to the polls on Saturday. Two alderman seats are up for grabs in the biennial election.
According to Dean Sexton, Campbell County's administrator of elections, turnout for early voting was "really light." At the close of the early voting on Monday only 93 people had cast their ballots.

Mickey Hamfists
Mickey Hamfists is a large goon working for the Leone crime family. Mickey has a loyal henchman's attitude and he always acts as a top subordinate. He is present at JD O'Toole's "made" ceremony in Liberty City Stories. Under the orders of Salvatore, Mickey kills JD O'Toole before the ceremony begins, saying that Salvatore would never trust a man who turned on his old bosses. This incident makes Toni a little nervous later on when he is appointed to be "made." Mickey escorts him to the ceremony in a very similar fashion that JD was, but luckily for Toni, there is no set-up and he is indeed "made."
Three years later, Mickey Hamfists is a bodyguard for Luigi Goterelli, and the co-manager of Sex Club 7 (along with Luigi). Mickey always checks Luigi's visitors for him, and will simply deliver a written letter to them at times. Nevertheless, "police records" from the official GTA III website described him as "a moron." Mickey also has prior convictions for assault, racketeering, and multiple involvements with narcotics.

Attorney General of the United States Eric Holder responded to critics, who have been angrily watching busloads of young Central Americans being dispersed elsewhere in this nation, via an interview broadcast today.
"Well let me just say this," Holder told an ABC reporter, Pierre Thomas (see transcript from ABCs "This Week") in an interview, "our immigration laws are broken. It's why we need comprehensive immigration reform." Blaming other nations' economic situations and violence, Attorney General Holder also said on Sunday:
"The immigration laws are being enforced, though we are faced with an extraordinary situation where thousands of people, young people especially, are fleeing Central America for economic reasons to get away from really endemic violence in their countries."
Holder also deflected criticism from President Barack Obama. "The president has put together a proposal to Congress asking for almost $4 billion. We are surging immigration judges to the border to process all of these people."
While Reporter Thomas also mentioned criticism "on the other side," which believes the Obama Administration has deported "way too many people," and a lawsuit recently filed which talks about the children really not getting "due process," Holder said this:
"We're certainly going to get criticized from both sides. But what we're certainly also going to do is make sure that we follow the law.
Run from the Border
In discussion regarding President Obama, the panel noted he was "taking some heat for shooting pool but not going to the border to see that crisis firsthand."
David Plouffe, Obama's former campaign manager, said "... [Obama] doesn't need to go to the border to address this crisis. First of all, we've had a crisis in immigration in this country for decades --" and then addressed the host 's next question of "But why not go?"
"Well, the point is he's had plenty of officials down there. It's beside the point, OK," said Plouffe,"what we need to do is focus on, A, we need to fix the immigration system most broadly. That's the biggest message out of all this. It's been languishing for decades. You have Republican support, you have Democratic support, get it done."
The editor of The Weekly Standard, Bill Kristol added his opinion in the panel discussion.
"And things in Central America have been tough for a long time. But the idea that you're going to let unaccompanied minors just come into the U.S. because of loophole in the 2008 law that doesn't -- that allows you to send a Mexican kid back and a Honduran kid gets to stay. And that's not sensible. And so the Republicans are going to propose this week on The Hill amending the 2008 law to have even treatment for everyone. And the president does have to send a message, you can't come here. And why is this happening -- David talks about this has been a problem for decades. Why are these kids suddenly flooding this place? Because the president amnestied all the kids who are already here in 2012. And people in Central America decided... " (CROSSTALK) " ... he amnestied all the kids who were here and every sensible person in Central America thought, hey, great if I can get my kid into the U.S. there will be an amnesty for him too."
Jobs and immigration
One of the voices suggesting amnesty is a good idea seems to be Jonathan Hoenig of the Capitalist Pig blog,who is quoted last year on the reason.com website:
"The fact that foreigners are eager to pick crops, clean houses, bus tables and produce allows more of us to afford cheaper food and better services, affording us even more wealth to enjoy and invest. It's not the immigrants, but the taxes, spending and entitlements (most of which immigrants don't even receive) that have drained the economy dry."
Still others believe the immigrants steal jobs and drive down wages, as mentioned in a WashingtonPost piece in 2006:
"According to the economic models, it's a no-brainer: a surge of low-skilled immigrants should increase the supply of such workers, driving down wages at the expense of working-class Americans." In fact, a North Dakota Senator, Byron L. Dorgan, explained why he opposes legislation to allow more immigration by stating in the article "I don't think you need a professor to understand that when you import substantial cheap labor, it displaces American workers."
But an article by Michael Greenstone and Adam Looney at Brookings.edu examined "how future immigration trends could impact American wages," and they came up with this:
"How immigrants impact the wages of U.S.-born workers depends on whether immigrants and U.S.-born workers compete for the same jobs or, instead, if they complement each other in the labor market. Despite concerns that competition from immigrants might harm employment prospects for native-born Americans, recent economic research suggests that, on average, immigrants raise wages and expand employment opportunities for Americans."
They add this next in their article:
"How is this possible? The answer lies in the way that the economy evolves to incorporate immigrants. For instance, less-skilled immigrants working in, say, agriculture, construction, or household services, appear to improve the wages and earnings of Americans by expanding the capacity of American businesses and farms, increasing the responsibility and pay of American foremen and supervisors, and providing expanded opportunities for higher-skilled Americans, particularly women, to pursue higher-paying careers."
Man-made crisis
In the Congress of the United States, the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee Bob Goodlatte made statements indicating he is looking for some leadership from the President on the matter and gave some criticism as well, stating on June 25:
"It was easy to predict that people in South and Central America, as well as in Mexico, would recognize a veiled invitation from the Administration to send their children and families to the United States with little chance of deportation. These individuals know that the Administration's policy of non-enforcement of our immigration laws presents a golden opportunity for unaccompanied minors and families with minors to come to the U.S., most likely to be released with very little chance of ever being removed. The Administration's message is tragic because the journey the Administration encourages is so dangerous and results in death, disease, and harm to so many minors along the way. It is often said that Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Unfortunately, it seems Obama fiddles while our borders implode."
The chairman further said that he was "looking forward" to finding out what the Obama Administration was planning to do about the crisis and what solutions could work to end it.
Here in San Diego County, as reported by local KPBS, the U.S. Border Patrol said it was stopping the flow of Central American migrants to San Diego after their apprehensions/arrests in Texas. The article quoted a spokesman, Paul Carr, who explained that they had reduced the backlog in south Texas and now were better able to process more migrants there in Texas.

The Holy Trinity A Perplexing Puzzle
The Lord Prayer The Most Widely Known From The Bible
June 28th, 2016
The Reason for the Season What the Gospels Have to Say
The Lord's Prayer is a prayer given by Jesus to his followers. It is found in different versions in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4. The version in Matthew is longer, consisting of an address and seven petitions. It is embedded in the Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus instructs his followers in doing the "greater" righteousness, which means to be whole-hearted in doing God's will as interpreted by Jesus. This passage of scripture is called the Lord's Prayer because Jesus gave it to the disciples as a pattern for their prayers.
Acts of pieties that express the greater righteousness are alms giving, prayer, and fasting. Such acts are to be performed in worship of God, however, and not for public show. As an example of how his disciples should pray, Jesus recites the Lord'Äôs Prayer, which is devoid of the 'Äúempty phrases'Äù and 'Äúmany words'Äù that characterize the prayers of the Gentiles. It is not wrong to come to God many times with the same requests 'Ä" Jesus encourages persistent prayer, but he condemns the shallow repetition of words that are not offered with a sincere heart. Here, the Lord'Äôs Prayer is a model that the disciples are to approximate in formulating their own prayers.
"This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
Your kingdom come, your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven,
Give us today our daily bread,
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
The phrase "our Father in heaven" indicates that God is not only majestic and holy, but also personal and loving. The first line of this model prayer is a statement of praise and a commitment to hallow, or honor, God's holy name. The phrase "your kingdom come" is a reference to God's spiritual reign, not Israel's freedom from Rome. God's kingdom was announced in the covenant with Abraham, is present in Christ's reign in believers' hearts, and will be complete when all evil is destroyed and God establishes the new heaven and earth. When people pray "your will be done", they are not resigning themselves to fate, but praying that God's perfect purpose will be accomplished in this world as well as in the next. "Give us today our daily bread" acknowledges that God is the sustainer and provider. It is a misconception to think that people provide for their own needs. People must trust God daily to provide what he knows they need. God does not lead people into temptation, but sometime he allows people to be tested by them. The Christian should pray to be delivered from these trying times and for deliverance from Satan and his deceit. Jesus also tells his people that if they do not forgive each other then he will not forgive them. God's forgiveness of sin is not the direct result of the Christian forgiving each other, but it is based on realizing what forgiveness means.
Many Christians believed that is was necessary to pray elaborate beautiful prayers where everyone can hear them and admire what they had said. Even today, the Christian has the tendency to get caught up in what their prayers sound like to others and the desire to impress other people. The Lord's Prayer is God's message to his followers that he prefers the humble and quiet prayers that are sincere and private. In fact, he tells his believers to go into a closet to pray so they can make sure that they do not get caught up in trying to impress other believers or even God.

"Teen Mom" star Maci Bookout has been living her life after the show has come to an end. Last year, MTV did a special on her called "Being Maci," and fans got to see how she is balancing co-parenting with her ex-boyfriend, Ryan Edwards. And it sounds like she is growing up, focusing on her career and trying to get a balance with work, her friends and her son. According to a new tweet released on March 2, "Teen Mom" star Maci Bookout is now revealing that she is still spending lots of time with her son, Bentley.
"Took Benny on a looong day riding at highland park. Its time for a beer and then the bed! #SundayFunday," she tweeted last night. Last weekend, MTV aired three specials about the other three "Teen Mom" stars. "Being Farrah," "Being Amber" and "Being Catelynn" aired last week and fans got to see what they had been up to.
However, Maci was kept out of the special because fans had been watching her special last year. However, it appears that she is good at keeping fans updated on what is going on in her life, and she is spending lots of time with Bentley.
What do you think of her parenting?

In our hands-on experience with the first wave of Phenoms, we didn't think the situation was as dire as many made it out to be. But regardless, it was a combination of a poor product launch with corporate financial trouble that raised the company to the spotlight.
In terms of performance, AMD has stated that the new B3 processors will be no faster than the original Phenom X4 CPUs without the TLB erratum fix enabled on a clock-for-clock basis. Therefore the Phenom X4 9600 and the new Phenom X4 9650, for example, should be no different in terms of performance. Just as well that should mean that today�s flagship Phenom, the X4 9850, should sit somewhere between the Phenom 9700 and 9900 processors that we reviewed earlier this year.
It will be interesting to see how the 9850 stacks up against the rest of the Phenom family and of course, Intel's Q6600.

Rescuers on Friday, Friday, Aug. 29, 2014 located 20 of at least 24 gold miners trapped by a landslide in the El Comal gold and silver mine in northern Nicaragua, but were not immediately able to bring them to safety. At least 20 miners are trapped alive deep underground, presidential spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said Friday. "We have identified 20 comrades who are alive," Murillo said. Miners were working in the shaft 800 meters (2,600 feet) underground when the cave-in happened Thursday. Two miners have managed to dig their way out.

Merlot is not a wine that readily comes to mind when discussing Italian wines. In a country populated with hundreds of different indigenous wine varieties and numerous attention-getting and popular wines such as Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello and Chianti Classico, to name a few, Italian Merlot doesn't rise to the level of wide popular recognition.
So today we are going to talk about Merlot, Barone Fini Merlot.
Giovanni Bonmartini-Fini is descended from Italian royalty—he is actually a count—and he is the
de facto head of Barone Fini, where wine making has consistently been part of the family business
for at least six centuries (it was officially recorded by the administration of the Republic of Venice
on October 24, 1479 when the family was given duty free privileges).
Today, the ultra-modern winery has two primary objectives: first, producing quality, approachable
wines, and second, keeping the family-owned and operated business market-nimble, involving all
of family members.
According to Bonmartini-Fini, this Merlot is purposely made to be medium-bodied, without
harsh tannins or high alcohol content to make it more easily drinkable.
He's right, this is truly a gulpable Merlot. The wine is unoaked and displays the classic fragrances and flavors of the varietal: plums, blackberries, blueberries and prunes make up the dark fruit nose and those aromas deliver flavor on the palate.
The first sip of this clean and bracing wine offers hints of good things to come: rich, ripe cherries,
plums, cassis and a smooth, velvety finish that brings chocolatey cherry notes to the fore. This is a stylish red, with graphite and aromatic herb notes, appealing ripe fruit profile and overall elegance.
It is beautifully balanced with the smooth, ripe tannins framing a vanilla and spice-tinged long, velvety finish.
It will pair well with rich and spicy foods such as Mexican dishes and Indian cocoanut curries. This wine will please both the Merlot and non-Merlot drinker and, at this price, it's a steal!
You can find this wine at Circus Wines/Spirits Unlimited, 835 State Highway 35, Middletown, NJ 07748.

What an amazing show! Topher hit it out of the ballpark. The actors captured the essences and his skill showed through. I am telling all my friends to see it. I hope it gets staged in other cities as well.
The 2012 Festival Line-Up includes:
Evelyn in Purgatory* by Topher Payne, director Betty Hart*
Five public school teachers are caught in the limbo of the disciplinary "Rubber Room," waiting for their cases to be heard and their fates decided. Poignant and funny, it's like The Breakfast Club for teachers, as they share secrets with each other and begin to look into their own hearts. Winner of the 2012 Essential Theatre Playwriting Award.
Bat-Hamlet* by Jordan Pulliam, director Peter Hardy*
What if Shakespeare had conceived the melancholy Dane as a costumed crime fighter? The worlds of comic books and the Bard of Avon come together in this hilarious mash-up, a tale of murder and revenge, poetry and BAM! SOCK! POW!
The Local, director Ellen McQueen
A collaborative theatre project about the City of Atlanta, by the writers of Atlanta, developed and directed by the award-winning director of Ice Glen and Sally and Glen at the Palace. A similar project is happening in Tampa, Florida, and Essential Theatre has plans to reach out to theatres around the country to eventually make this a nationwide phenomenon.
All shows are suggested for audiences ages 18 and older.
About the Ticket Supplier: Essential Theatre
Essential Theatre's mission is to challenge Georgia audiences and to support Georgia artists by encouraging the creation of new dramatic literature and giving local actors, directors and designers the chance to work on exciting new plays that have not yet been produced in the area – all world and regional premieres.

Kenya Moore might think she is the star of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" but after the season has ended, the only time the star is getting any attention is when she is attacking a cast member. It happened again on social media when Kenya Moore described Phaedra Parks. According to Wetpaint on Wednesday, Kenya Moore referenced Phaedra Parks as "evil" in a public message to a fan.
Tacky? Yes, and fans have come to expect nothing less from the show at this point. Kenya Moore needs tries to prove her value off of the show to convince fans to keep watching her. Unfortunately, the words only highlight just how nasty she has become with the spotlight and given people a reason to tune her out.
"Don't let evil ppl get u down with hateful words. Some ppl sell their souls 2 the devil 2 realize he already lives inside them," tweeted Kenya Moore to a fan about Phaedra's actions on the show.
The season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" has left a very different impression on viewers than in previous season. Instead of being excited about the relationships of the ladies, people have had to choose sides in arguments and make decisions on what behaviors are acceptable (and what isn't.) It's splintered fans and the only way to make headlines for the ladies is to go on attack.
If Kenya Moore continues with her words against other stars, she might join the list of the most hated reality stars on TV. Vindictive ways only work for so long before the fans realize that the behavior is unacceptable and turn against the star.
Will Kenya Moore return to "The Real Housewives of Atlanta?" So far no word on who will be coming back to the program. Fans are nervous about the idea of Kenya and Porsha Stewart returning to the same setting as there was violence in the past. Nobody wants to see people in fights on a reality show. Bravo is expected to announce their decision on who stays and goes in the next few weeks!

The Cloud Bookcase ($1,034) is spendy, but oh so distinctive. You can piece the 73 x 41 inch modules together to create functional, one-of-a-kind artwork. You can mix and match colors to your own tastes, and add to the set over the years. And because each of these "shelves" is nearly 16 inches deep, you can fill them with the things that make you happiest (unless, of course, the thing that makes you happiest is your cat - that would just be wrong).

Wife and I are at dinner tonight, and there's eight State Patrol officers a few tables away. When I got up to refill my drink, the last LEO was leaving and walked by me. I gestured to his belt with everything hanging off it and said, "No way I could wear that thing, it and my pants would be down around my ankles."
He laughed, started a discussion about how much it weighed, and then after a couple comments, asked if I was carrying. I was a little surprised. Before I could gather myself to answer, he says, "It's okay if you are."
I then answer, "Yes."
He looks me straight in the eyes and says, "Good!" Then, proceeds to tell my wife that she should NOT wait until she's more comfortable with a gun, but to get her CWL ASAP and that moreover, he WANTS me and others armed.
Of course, through this discussion we find out he's from New York - accent and attitude says the city as well as the state.
Then he asks, "So, do you have your stockpile of ammo yet?"
We answer, "no, but we're working on it."
"Good! Make sure you have it."
The conversation went on like this for probably twenty minutes. I had the feeling that if I had asked, we very well could have sat back down at a table and started comparing weapons. Best LEO conversation I've EVER had.

Eddy D. Field Stadium (map it)
24255 Pacific Coast Hwy
Malibu, CA 90263
Year Opened: 1973
Capacity: 1,800
There are no tickets available at this time.
Official Review by Andy Mantsch, Stadium Journey Special Correspondent
It doesn�t always take a new and beautiful stadium to make baseball experiences good ones. Sometimes all it takes is a hot dog, a game, and a view. And at Eddy D. Field Stadium, oh�.what a view it is. Situated in Malibu overlooking the Pacific Ocean, sometimes it�s hard to focus on the game with such a calming setting. The stadium itself doesn�t hold much in terms of glitz and glamour, but when you�re based in Malibu��who cares?
The stadium was built in 1973 and renovated in 1980 and again in 1999. The 1,800 seat stadium is named after longtime university benefactor Eddy Field. And with a plethora of stadiums in the LA area, this one is worth the drive up the Pacific Coast Highway.
The FANFARE scale is our metric device for rating each stadium experience. It covers the following:
Each area is rated from 0 to 5 stars with 5 being the best. The overall composite score is the "FANFARE Score".
Well, the good news is the food is dirt cheap. Almost everything on the menu is under $4.25, which makes for a very affordable experience. If you're looking for a variety of local food options to chow down on though, you'll have to go somewhere else. Fortunately, all that a good baseball experience requires is a couple of $3 hot dogs and a $2.25 soda with the ocean in the background.
There's only one small concession stand behind the first base line here. The menu is short and includes hot dogs, peanuts ($2.50), frozen lemonade ($3.50), STG sandwich ($4.25), PB&J ($2) and a few other miscellaneous items. Drinks include coffee ($2), Dasani bottled water ($2.25) and soda. Again, the selection is sparse, but mildly sufficient.
The crowds aren't raging, the stadium isn't shiny and the park isn't top of the line. But, there's no disputing the setting. There are plenty of parks around the country that bring a lot more in terms of passionate sports atmospheres and state of the art facilities, but Eddy Field Stadium is the anti-atmosphere in those regards.
The facility itself is nice enough for a college stadium. The outfield wall runs evenly around the park with a pretty basic scoreboard in right. Left center field is the only part of the field that could be classified as "intimidating." Despite only two College World Series appearances, Pepperdine's wall proudly displays that they were 1992 National Champions. The stadium bleachers are all seatbacks in 11 sections from first base around to third base. The crowd is generally sparse (Pepperdine is much more of a basketball school) and very laid back.
The real showstopper here is the aforementioned view. Palm trees line the outside of the outfield fence, hills rolling up to the Santa Monica Mountains draw your eyes to the right and a campus full of what looks like luxury condos are all around you. The Pacific Ocean in the distance over left field will steal your eye line for all nine innings if you're not careful. Everything about this park is relaxing, and well worth the trip.
Pepperdine's campus overlooks Malibu and the Pacific Coast Highway from the hills below the Santa Monica Mountains. Is there a better neighborhood than Malibu and a better drive than the Pacific Coast Highway? Sure, there's not a bar and restaurant scene in the area, but who needs that when you have beach, mountains and mansions? The area is absolutely beautiful and will expand your relaxing experience well beyond the nine innings of the game.
There are several beachside restaurants in Malibu worth checking out. My first recommendation would be Duke's Malibu for some seafood and beautiful ocean views. Paradise Cove Beach Caf� and The Sunset are also beachside options.
Hotels in the immediate Malibu area aren't particularly cheap, but they are definitely plentiful. If you're looking for less expensive options, you can head 20-30 minutes down the road towards LA and have easy access to both Malibu and the Hollywood area for considerably cheaper rates. And of course, the drive can be right down the 101 along the ocean. There's definitely no reason to complain about that.
There's a mighty few Waves faithful in attendance at the game, but in general, attendance will be pretty sparse. At a basketball-first school in a city full of money, there's just not much support for the baseball team. It's a shame, because it really is a great place to view a game. Although as peaceful as it is, it might lose some of its relaxing luster with truly large crowds.
The Los Angeles area isn't particularly known for its ease of access, but when you're driving along the ocean it's easy to not mind. Pepperdine is about a 45 minute drive along the coast from LAX on an easy day, with a good portion of that drive following the PCH west along the ocean. If you're coming from that direction, leave a bit early because LA traffic is unpredictable to say the least.
Once at Pepperdine, you'll check in at the campus checkpoint and they'll direct you up the road to the stadium. There is a parking lot behind the center field wall and street parking in the immediate area. Because of the sparse attendance, traffic will generally be light and parking is easy. Entry into the stadium can come from just about any direction via stairways among the hills, but to avoid stairs there's a road that comes down the first baseline hill.
You'll pay your $8 almost on the honor system at a table set up behind the first base dugout stands and have free roam of the area. The game is visible from all areas of the concourse with seating below, so walking it is easy.
Everything here is inexpensive. From the $8 ticket to the $3 hot dog, this is an excellent value. Take into account the beautiful view and the above average baseball, and it's quite a deal. Short of an absolutely elite baseball atmosphere, you can't beat putting your feet up on the seat in front of you and catching a game with the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean.
The first obvious unique factor to Eddy Field Stadium is the view. This has to count as an extra when it's something that very few stadiums can match. Add into it the equally beautiful Pepperdine campus, and you're surrounded by a slice of heaven. But be sure to look down just long enough to notice the unexpected "National Champions" scrolled across the outfield wall, and you'll realize this is more than just pretty scenery.
You've heard about the great parks of college baseball in the southeast or nearby Los Angeles. But don't overlook the hidden masterpiece of serenity that is Eddy D. Field Stadium. If baseball was life and you had to take a vacation, this would be your vacation spot.

Member Review by sportsroadtrips on Mar 04, 2012
The Los Angeles area is home to many famous sports teams, with two franchises in the NBA, the NHL, MLB, and even MLS. There is also the very well known college basketball program at UCLA and the football program at USC. So you will be forgiven for not knowing much about the Pepperdine Waves baseball squad who have put together 37 consecutive winning seasons at their picturesque home ballpark, Eddy D. Field Stadium.
Pepperdine�s main campus is in Malibu, just north of LA and right off the Pacific Coast Highway, comfortably nestled in the seaside cliffs that make the area so scenic. In the middle of campus is their jewel of a ballpark, which was opened in 1973 and has undergone several renovations in the intervening years.
Named after a longtime university benefactor, Eddy D. Field Stadium might have a confusing moniker but make no mistake; it is a stadium and not just a field, and one that you should be visiting if you live in LA. Actually, you should make an effort to visit here regardless of where you live, as it is as close to paradise as you can get when watching the great game of baseball.

Suppose $Z$ is a continuous random variable on $\mathbb{R}^n$.
$f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^+ \cup \{0\}$ is a function, such that $\mathrm{E} Z = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} z \times f(z)dz$. Then we know $f$ is not necessarily the density function of $Z$. What else conditions can make $f$ the density function of $Z$?
For example, if for any measurable and bounded function $u: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathrm{E} (u(Z)) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} u(z) \times f(z)dz$. Then is $f$ the density function of $Z$? This is inspired from did's reply.
Thanks and regards!

After Roxanne Cabanero and Deniece Cornejo, a woman who worked as a double in a TV series also decided to file a rape complaint against the actor-TV host Vhong Navarro at the Quezon City Prosecutor's Office. Based on a posted article of philstar.com this morning, April 4, 2014, the alleged rape incident which was narrated by the victim in a four-page complaint affidavit happened sometime in 2009 during the last few weeks of the taping of a TV series that starred Vhong Navarro.
Allegedly, the actor's driver instructed her to go inside the Sports Utility Vehicle for a short talk with Vhong during a break of their taping sometime in 2009, but according to her, the actor forced her to perform oral sex on him while inside the SUV. The complainant confirmed that Vhong was forced to masturbate when she threatened him to bite his sex organ.
The rumored filing of the third rape complaint against the It's Showtime host and leading man of Solenn Heusaff in the movie Da Possessed was originally posted by Mr. Tony Calvento on his official Facebook page several hours ago. He did not reveal the identity of the alleged rape victim but he almost confirmed that the case has already been filed at the Quezon City Prosecutor's office two days ago.
Just minutes after reading his post, some observers including his followers in and outside the country decided to share their sentiments about the issue using their official Facebook accounts, according to them, the third rape complaint against their idol is one of the dirty tactics of Cedric Lee and his men who mauled Vhong in a condominium unit last Jan. 22.
