Last month, Beyoncé released her self-titled album, 'Beyoncé' which included 14-songs and 17-videos.
With no advance promotion or leaking, the project sold over 600,000 copies and within days became 2013′s second-highest seller on iTunes.
Days following the release, the singer hosted a screening at the New York School for Visual Arts and answered a few of her fans questions in which they submitted via Instagram using hashtag #AskBeyoncé. Being that a lot of us are huge fans of Mrs. Carter, we decided to have one of our contributors submit his own question inquiring about this "Yonce" figure and out of thousands, his question was picked.
We're still in shock… Check out the video of her response to Examiner.com contributor, Rashad Williams (Rah Willz) question (starts at 6:10).

The humanizing work of James Whitcomb Riley has caused him to be honored as has no other American poet. But what of his life?
By Thomas E. Q. Williams, his biographer.

James Whitcomb Riley was born in a log cabin on October 7, 1849 in the little village of Greenfield, fast in the lap of Indiana's farmland but then still hidden in primitive oak and poplar forest. The Main Street of the village was the planked National Road; a highway that lured American pioneers along its fennel rimmed way towards California and the West. Riley's father was a frontier lawyer and politician who named his second son after an Indiana governor, James Whitcomb. His mother wrote poetry as well as baked in a hearth oven and raised a growing nest of children. Riley grew up among simple living, kindly people.
As a boy Riley was slender and retiring noted mainly for his ingenuity and pranks. Early in his youth, his log cabin home was replaced by a large two-storied house with bright green shutters. This home is now the shrine operated by Greenfield's Riley Old Home Society open to visitors from throughout the world.
Riley's parents feared he was not going to amount to anything. He simply could not learn history or mathematics. Once when a childhood teacher asked him where Christopher Columbus sailed on his second voyage, Riley answered he didn't know where he went on the first one. A teacher once moaned, "He doesn't know which is more -twice ten or twice eternity."
Riley's best poems recollect his childhood and youth in Greenfield. He was a singer in words of these subjects...He was drawn to Hoosier characters such as "The Raggedy Man," a hired hand who told the boy of the "Squidgicum-Squees 'at swallers the'selves." He and his brother trailed the country dirt roads "Out to Old Aunt Mary's." The little village was a melting pot of American folks from many national homelands. Riley's own parents had Hoosier Deutsch blood and out of the depth of sorrow Riley could speak their dialect to mourn "Dot Leetle Boy of Mine." Riley was sometimes called a "dialect singer" because he mastered the most telling expressions of those he heard. "Orphant Annie" told him tales he remembered all his life about wunks who lived in the ground and came out at night to take on innumerable forms, goblins who could interchange their bodily limbs, and fairies who lived under the stairs and left to make snowflakes and such.
Riley attempted to study the law and become a lawyer as his father wished but he could not apply himself to law books. His mind was a-flutter with romance with Nellie Millikan and activities of the youth of his hometown. In his mind came the words of "An Old Sweetheart of Mine." Then he wandered the American Middle West as a sign painter.
He simply could not settle down. Sometimes he traveled with a "Miracle Medicine Show" and garnered crowds for a talk by a medicine hawker with songs played on violin, banjo or guitar. Drama was another of his interests. He often played roles of those he had seen in his travels and mimicked their speech.
Entertainment proved to be his forte. Riley's first published poems were written for newspapers. Although Riley's pieces were picked up from one newspaper to the next and were much copied around the country, Riley felt his reputation as a poet had no chance because he came from the American "frontier" Midwest and not the East. To prove his point Riley wrote a hoax poem called "Leonanie" said to have been written by Edgar Allan Poe. The poem was immediately reproduced in newspapers with great fanfare. His point was made when James Whitcomb Riley was exposed as the author. Then Riley became very adept at presenting his poems on stage. In fact Riley's great popularity first arose from his performances on the Lyceum Circuit. Here he traveled around the country in every large metropolis reciting his increasingly popular poems reflecting his Hoosier youth.
Later in life Riley's poems were reproduced in beautifully illustrated books which attracted national and international readership. The royalties from these books enriched Riley to the point where he became the wealthiest writer of his time. Riley became not only :The Hoosier Poet" but also America's "Children's Poet." The child in us all was reflected in his work. In his fifties Riley suffered a stroke that paralyzed his left side and he kept mostly to his Indianapolis "Lockerbie Street" home. His life drew to a close a week after his last visit to his hometown of Greenfield. He had returned there for the funeral of a boyhood friend, Almond Keefer, and had commented "It will not be long until the rest of the old crowd will be sleeping beside him." His own death of a stroke fell on July 22d. 1916.
President Woodrow Wilson sent a note of sorrow to Riley's family upon his death which expressed the feeling of the whole country : "With his departure a notable figure passes out of the nation's life; a man who imparted joyful pleasure and a thoughtful view of many things that other men would have missed."
This is the poet whose 150th birthday is honored this year of 1999.
BUT WHAT DID THE CRITICS SAY OF RILEY'S POETRY? LET'S READ WHAT AMERICA'S GREATEST CRITIC OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY, HAMLIN GARLAND, HAD TO SAY OF HIM IN A RECOLLECTION FOR THE NEW YORK BASED AMERICAN ACADEMY OF ARTS AND LETTERS (1922)(Of which Riley was a charter member).
by Hamlin Garland
One day in 1885, while calling upon my friend Charles E. Hurd, the Literary Editor of the Boston Transcript, I noticed upon his desk a curious little volume bound in parchment entitled The Old Swimmin' Hole and `Leven More Poems, by Benjamin F. Johnson of Boone.
Hurd, observing my interest, handed the book to me, saying, "Here is a man you should be interested in. He comes from out your way."
This was my introduction to "The Hoosier Poet." I read in this booklet When the Frost is on the Punkin, My Fiddle, and other of the pieces which later became familiar through Riley's readings on the platform, and I tasted in them a homely flavor which no other American poet had given me. I became almost at once an advocate of the man and the book. I wrote to the author and thereafter read every line of his writings so far as I could obtain them. I felt that in James Whitcomb Riley America had a writer who voiced as no one else had voiced the outlook of the Middle Western farmer.
Year by year Riley grew in reputation and appeal. He published Afterwhiles, Pipes o' Pan, and other volumes of mingled verse and prose, partly in the Hoosier vernacular , partly in an English which was touched with the same quaint, individual quality. The magazines soon began to publish his poems, but in truth his success did not come so much in print as through his own reading of his lines from the platform. He had in him something of the minstrel. He possessed notable power to charm and move an audience and everywhere he spoke he left a throng of friends. To hear him read - or recite - A Song of the Arly Days was to be moved in a new and unforgettable way. His vibrant individual voice, his flexile lips, his droll glance, united to make him at once poet and comedian - comedian in the sense in which makes for tears as well as for laughter.
Year by year his popularity increased, until his royalties surpassed those of event he greatest of American novelists. He appealed with singular power to the people of his own State, but he also appealed to the readers in Eastern States. He expressed something of the wistful sadness of the middle-aged man who is looking back on the sunlit streams of his boyhood, and he voiced also with notable fidelity the emotions of children in the wonder-world of the present. In all this work of the homely American Hoosier type his pen was adequate. He was recognized at last as the chief singer in the rural vernacular.
In 1892 I visited Riley at his native town of Greenfield, Indiana, and the town and country gave moving evidence of the wonder-working power of the poet. To my eyes it was the most unpromising field for art, especially for the art of verse. The landscape had no hills, no lakes, no streams of any movement or beauty. Ragged fence-rows, flat and dusty roads, fields of wheat alternating with clumps of trees - these were the features of a country which to me was utterly commonplace - and yet from this dusty, drab, unpromising environment Riley had been able to draw the honey of woodland poesy, a sweet in which a native fragrance as of basswood and buckwheat bloom mingled with hints of an English meadow and the tang of a Canada thistle.
In person Riley was as markedly individual as his verse. s He was short, square-shouldered, and very blond with a head which he was accustomed to speak of as "of the tack-hammer variety." His smoothly shaven face was large and extremely expressive, the face of a great actor. Though grim in repose it lighted up with the merriest smiles as he read or as he uttered some quaint jest. His diction when he wished it to be so was admirably clear and precise, but he loved to drop into the speech and drawl of his Hoosier characters, and to me this was a never-failing delight. I have never met a man save Mark Twain who had the same amazing flow of quaint conceits. He spoke "copy" all the time.
In his own proper person he was wise rather than learned. His speech had the charm of the proverb, the sententiousness of the homespun philosopher. Once he said to me, "I don't take no credit fer my ignorance - jest born that-a-way,." At another time he remarked with a touch of mysticism, "My work did itself. I'm only the willer bark through which the whistle comes."
His dialect verse is written in two ways, one in the fashion of the man of little schooling who is expressing himself on paper, and the other, as the same man (or his neighbor) might express in actual speech the feeling which impelled him to utterance. In each case the expression is indirect for Americans of his type are careful not to "slop over" as they call it. As Riley himself says, "I never represent people as the scholar thinks they ought to think and feel, - I never try to edit nature. Nature is good enough fer God, it's good enough fer me."
As he drew towards old age his health failed and the quality of his work declined in value. He repeated himself as Bret Harte did, and when he tried imaginative or formal verse he often failed. His genius was for the homely, the quaint, the pathetic and his best expression was the vernacular. It was in poems like Nothin' at All to Say and Griggsby's Station that he won his fame, and not in fanciful pieces like The Flying Islands of the Night. There are a hundred American poets who can write conventional sonnets, there are very few who can catch the charm that is in Kingry's Mill and Down Around the River.
Others get the phonetics of everyday speech, but Riley thought in dialect. Common speech is the bones of his verse. It cannot be translated. It is not, of course, actual speech, but it suggests it, epitomizes it. No one else has ever caught more deftly the lisp and stammer of childhood. Eugene Field wrote about children, Riley dramatized them. In all that he wrote he retained individuality - even in his more conventional verse he was never without his own savor.
He taught us once again the fundamental truth which we were long in learning here in America, that there is a poetry of common things as well as of epic deeds. His immense success with the common, non-literary public is to be counted for him and not against him. Either consciously or unconsciously his verses were wrought for the family. He never forced the erotic note. Surrounded by Americans, he wrote for Americans. To me his restraint is a fine and true distinction.
His verse sprang from a certain era of Mid-western development. It is a humble crop gathered from the corners of rail fences, from the vines which clamber upon the porches of small villages, and from the weedy side-walks of quiet towns far from the great markets of the world For the people who are his kindred Riley was a spokesman, and his verse will not die so long as those of us who came up through the same lands and by-ways live in the golden memories of the "Airly Days." The poets of to-day are writing of different America, varying their accent to meet the demands of their day, and this is their privilege and their duty, but in the midst of the tumult of "the New America " I take pleasure in paying tribute to a man who did so much to embody a world that is gone.
As he said of his brother, so I say of him:
"With a cheery word and a wave of the hand
He has wandered into a foreign land-
He is not dead, he is just away!"

What do we do when confronted by suspicious activity?
On Nov. 2, 19-year-old Renisha McBride, who was rip-roaring drunk, crashed her car into a parked vehicle in Detroit. Disoriented, she wandered off from the crash scene, eventually winding up on the front porch of Theodore Wafer in Dearborn Heights after 3 a.m., knocking on his screen door. Wafer, who is white, opened his front door and shot the unarmed McBride, who was African-American, in the face with his shotgun through the locked screen door, killing her.
Back on Feb. 26, 2012, George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer in Sanford, FL, saw Trayvon Martin, 17, walking in his gated subdivision. There had been some recent burglaries and Martin, a black teenager wearing a hoodie, looked suspicious to Zimmerman, who dialed 911 and called the police. The police dispatcher said that officers would be sent and told Zimmerman, who is half-Hispanic and half-white, not to pursue Martin, who was unarmed and returning to his father's fiancee's home from a trip to a store.
But Zimmerman, who carried a 9 mm handgun, ignored the dispatcher's instructions and went after Martin anyway. What happened in the confrontation between Zimmerman and Martin will probably never be known, but it ended with Zimmerman shooting Martin to death.
Whatever the legal ramifications may be, whether racial profiling was involved or however "stand your ground" laws in Michigan and Florida may apply, the killings of both McBride and Martin were completely avoidable. When McBride knocked on his screen door, Wafer needn't have opened his front door. He should instead have called 911 and let the Dearborn Heights Police deal with her. When the Sanford Police dispatcher told Zimmerman not to pursue Martin, he should have followed these instructions and let the police deal with Martin.
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged Wafer with second degree murder and manslaughter. Wafer claims that his shotgun discharged accidentally.
In July, Zimmerman was acquitted of second degree murder and manslaughter charges. While Florida's "stand your ground" law wasn't brought up at trial, the issue was raised by the judge in the jury instructions and was cited by some of the jurors in their decision to acquit.
Acquitted or not, there are many who regard Zimmerman as a jerk, and his behavior since the trial bears this out. Last week, he was charged with aggravated assault after allegedly breaking a table with a shotgun in the home of girlfriend Samantha Scheibe and then pointing the shotgun at her. A police search of Scheibe's home found five weapons and 106 rounds of ammunition that belonged to Zimmerman. Scheibe claimed that Zimmerman previously tried to choke her and talked about suicide.
Zimmerman's wife Shellie filed for divorce and alleged that he threatened her. She also expressed doubts about his innocence in the Martin case. Zimmerman was twice stopped for speeding, and may face federal civil rights charges over Martin's death.
The behavior of Wafer and Zimmerman stands in stark contrast to the 38 residents of Queens, NY who in 1964 either witnessed the murder of Kitty Genovese or heard her screams for help as Winston Moseley stabbed her to death, yet never so much as called the police. One of them said, "I didn't want to get involved."
Both extremes were wrong. If we witness a crime being committed or suspicious behavior, we shouldn't look the other way. On the other hand, we have no business playing vigilante, either. We should instead just call 911 and leave it to the professionals.

Google Now Is Actually a Good Thing for Apple
Sterling Wong
Experts say that the greater array of third-party app choices makes customers likelier to stick with Apple devices.
On Monday,
(NASDAQ:GOOG) announced that its personal assistant app, Google Now, had been made available on
(NASDAQ:AAPL) iTunes store, providing iPhone users an alternative to Siri.
Most tech experts view this development as a triumph of Google. In his article,
Google Has Destroyed Apple's Walled Garden From Within
, Minyanville writer Mike Schuster said that "Google apps [like Google Now and Google Maps] are besting the iPhone's default software, and Apple has to grin and bear it."
But while it's undeniably great for Google that its apps are available on iOS and that people like them, is it necessarily bad for Apple?
Not really, say tech industry insiders.
"I think it's not a bad thing for Apple, even though Google is a competitor in many areas," says Gaston Irigoyen, CEO & Founder of
and a Google alumnus. "Users want to have many apps and more services that are cross-platform. I'm sure Apple users would like to have access to services like Google Now or
(NASDAQ:FB) Home."
Some tech analysts have said that having more Google apps available on iOS makes it likelier that iPhone users will switch over to Android devices in the future, but Irigoyen disagrees.
"I think Apple users have always been very loyal to Apple. I'm not sure one or two apps will really make them change their minds. If I were Apple, I wouldn't be afraid that a few apps are not available."
Bryan Colligan, CEO of
SeQR Pay.com
, a recently launched mobile commerce app for small businesses that want to sell their products on mobile devices, concurred. "If all the killer apps are available on both platforms, then there is less incentive [for customers] to switch," he says.
(See also:
Should Apple Be More Worried About Samsung or Google?
What would entice customers to stick with Apple, some say, is the fact that third-party apps generally work best on iOS.
"This may sound hard to believe, but in reality, almost everything works better under iOS," says Chad Udell, managing director of Float Mobile Learning and the author of
Learning Everywhere: How Mobile Content Strategies Are Transforming Training
. "Because of the numerous handset manufacturers and OEM, Android and other operating systems are inherently less stable than Apple's iOS platform."
"While Android is getting better, there are too many devices to support to completely control the experience and device-specific variables," added Colligan.
The complexities of customizing apps for the myriad of Android options in the market is also the reason why Google Now is ironically available on twice as many iOS devices than it is on Android ones. Google Now for Android is compatible only with devices that run the newest version of Android, Jelly Bean, so certain
(TPE:2498) or
(PINK:SSNLF) devices, for example, cannot access the app.
Nonetheless, Apple clearly recognizes the threat that popular Google and other third-party services pose, which explains its attempts to block YouTube and Google Maps apps at one point, notes Irigoyen.
"I think Apple worries about this situation and it seems like they're doing two very different things: In some cases, they are trying to integrate third-party features into their OS. For example, Facebook and Twitter sign-in capabilities have been incorporated into iOS. On the other hand, they are preventing or making it very hard for other players to work with them – Google Maps and YouTube are great examples, or even FB Home. Those have either been removed or it's been more difficult for developers to work with them in the last versions of iOS."
For Apple's continued success in the software space, the performance of the upcoming iOS 7 update is paramount. Irigoyen says that Apple needs to get two things right: improving information-sharing between apps and easing up restrictions on home screen customization.
"Information-sharing between apps is something that Google has done very well. For instance, I use an Android device. If I want to share a photo on my photo gallery on Android, just by tapping on the photo, I can very quickly share that with multiple services and multiple apps that I also have installed in my device. By tapping on a photo, I can share it to Instagram, to DropBox, or to email. There's room for improvement there from Apple."
"[Also] from user experience point of view, we haven't seen a lot of innovation from Apple in the last iOS releases. The ability to include widgets and other things in your home screen would be nice, so you can personalize your home screen. Google has really been working on that."

LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech track and field team wrapped up their second home meet of the season Saturday afternoon inside the Athletic Training Center.
As the Texas Tech Open came to a close, it marked the conclusion of back-to-back home meets to open the indoor season, and head coach Wes Kittley said he was pleased with what his team was able to accomplish in the short time period.
"It's really important because we wanted to give them some confidence before we go to Texas A&M," Kittley said. "There are going to be a lot of great teams there. It is going to be a great meet, and I think our kids are ready."
The Red Raider and No. 8 Lady Raiders had a total of nine first place finishes during the meet along with several impressive performances.Junior Bryce Lamb's season opening jump of 26'-0.75" won the long jump. The mark led the nation after Friday night.
Junior Katie Grimes continued her impressive junior campaign by garnering another first place finish in the 55m hurdles running a 7.77 in the finals, just .04 off of her school record performance last weekend.
"It's special because she has made a great transition from her sophomore year," assistant coach Dion Miller said. "This being her junior year, she is trying to be consistent."
With the performance this weekend, Grimes now holds the two fastest indoor times in school history in the 55m hurdle event.
"This meet was just maintaining what I have had, and what I had been doing in practice," Grimes said.
For the second consecutive weekend, the No. 8 Lady Raiders picked up a win in the 4x400m relay with a time of 3:38.16 to improve on their time from last weekend. The mark was just five seconds short of breaking a 25-year-old Athletic Training Center record set in 1987.
The men's distance medley relay team picked up its first win of the season by running a 10:13.08.
Sophomore Kyal Myers won the pole vault for the second consecutive, and set a personal best in doing so. The sophomore vaulted 17-4.25" to win the event. The mark currently ranks ninth in the country and is tops in the Big 12. Meanwhile, Jeremy Doddridge set a new personal best by clearing the 16'-0.75 mark on his third attempt.
All-American Kelly Closse continued her impressive start to the indoor season by picking up wins in both the weight throw and the shot put competitions. The senior set an Athletic Training Center record with a toss of 68'-7.25" in the weight throw. The throw also beat her personal best by over two feet.
The track and field team will make their first road trip of the season next weekend when they travel to College Station to compete in the heavily contested Texas A&M Challenge.

Given is a triangle on points x,y,z in the plane. This triangle has two points a and b on different sides. I would like to show that the following inequality has to hold:
$\max \{d(b,x), d(b,y), d(b,z)\} + \max \{d(a,x), d(a,y), d(a,z)\} - d(b,a) \geq \min \{d(x,y), d(x,z), d(y,z)\}$
where d(u,v) denotes the euclidean distance between u and v. I actually expect the above statement to be true even if a and b are two arbitrary points outside of the triangle.
Does anybody have an idea how to approach this?

I created a Windows 7 image to run under KVM based virtualiztion, but the networking for the image will not start until I login. I'm not very familiar with Windows, but it seems as though there is some kind of policy being applied for "unknown" networks and connecting to the internet until a user logs in.
Does anyone have any ideas of where to start looking to troublshoot this problem? It's a bit hard to good because of the search terms. It always ends up being about network logins.
Thanks for any help.

I was wondering what there is out there in 9mm, SA/DA, single stack, and preferable with a decocker. The only thing I know of is a Sig 225/p6.
Walther P5 and P5 compact, and though it's not a SA/DA, the H&K P7 or P7M8.
But on a side note to the side note, used P7 "PSP" pistols can be picked up right now for only $539: Hk Psp. Magazines are still $50 each, which is one of the few things stopping me from ordering. Great guns, though.

Boeing 307 Stratoliner "Clipper Flying Cloud"
First flown in late 1938, the Boeing 307 was the first airliner with a pressurized fuselage. It could carry 33 passengers in great comfort and cruise at 6,096 meters (20,000 feet), while maintaining a cabin pressure of 2,438 meters (8,000 feet). This enabled the Stratoliner to fly above most bad weather, thereby providing a faster and smoother ride.

I am wondering if there is a website, or book that has RAF crests/badges. I have searched the net and have come across many useful sites, but the crests I am after would appear to be a little obscure ! My father passed away recently, and as a personal project I would like to compile a set of crests representing the stations and units he served at, for family use, so no copyright would be breached !!
Specific areas of interest are Cyprus (Akrotiri/Episkopi/Troodos/ Nicosia, NEAF, P&SS (Cyprus), or anything else that may be of interest)

Many of us believe that art is quite useless. Can you feed hungry people a painting of bread? Can you fight a war with a photo? Can you heal a cancer with a song? Or maybe you can! Artists, writers and musicians assert that art speaks directly to the human spirit using inspiration as its language. And inspiration precedes successful implementation.
7 quantifiable things art can do for you:
- Who needs pills? Art in the form of the imagination is a great stress reliever. Art makes reality more tolerable. An uplifted imagination sparks hopeful solutions and strengthens the eternal spirit. You can personalize beautiful visuals, soaring songs or inspiring words to cope with troubles and obstacles.
- Fiction is great inexpensive therapy. Reading novels and watching movies help you to learn from other people's stories. You can step back and with a certain detachment observe how characters learn to live with the full range of human stress.
- Hospitals know that art like paintings, sculptures and music can reduce patient anxiety and promote healing - the equivalent of a mind/body synthesis. Physicians understand the inflammatory process of stress and how it can undermine the treatment of disease. According to an August 20, 2014 Wall Street Journal article "More Hospitals Are Using the Healing Power of Art" hospitals are commissioning uplifting and optimistic art works to reduce patient stress and increase satisfaction with medical procedures. With a $1.5 million budget from donors, a particular health system commissioned about 20 artists to create original works to support "the sense of optimism, vitality and energy" for the Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital, which opened last December. "This is right down the fairway of what we need to be doing to promote health," Dr. Harris says.
- Art improves focus and a laser-like focus can help you to heal and implement a resilient plan. This is why a medical school like Yale presents med students with a museum class to improve their diagnostic acuity. The skills required for studying the details of a painting can transfer to the human body.
- Art is eternal like love. When you are feeling the weight of your mortality, art reminds you of the immortal part of the human spirit.
- Engaging in creative compensation – creating your own art – fills the holes of sadness and emptiness caused by the destructive forces of living. When you are in pain and immersed in an art project, somehow you feel less pain or even forget the pain for a while which breaks the body/mind pain loop.
- Thinks about the words: "Do not let what you cannot do, interfere with what you can do." Art gives you a sense of control over a desired outcome. Loss of control and living in uncertainty or ambiguity are challenges which can overwhelm. Art can restore serenity to help you sort out what is happening and a find a resilient approach.

Invoice FAQs
Want to know how much you're being charged, and what for? Look no further!
Why don't you send paper invoices to customers?Unlike other businesses, we don't print out and send paper invoices. Given that our business is web based, and all of our billing information is stored digitally, it's only natural to keep our invoicing online. Unlike traditional paper invoices, our electronic ones have some distinct advantages:
- Lower cost to us, which translates to lower cost to you.
- Up to the day invoicing means that it's always current.
- Our invoices are fully customizable: see your billing history from the moment you signed up to the present day, or specify your own time frame.
- Less paper means more trees.
- You (or the postal service) can't lose an electronic invoice!
Why was I billed x amount on such and such date?
Find a complete history of every amount we've billed you and every service you've been charged for (with explanations) by logging into the Account Control Panel and clicking on the Invoice segment of the Billing tab. If your charge doesn't show up there, please contact our billing team and be sure to include your username, the date, and amount billed.
Why is my monthly charge higher than usual?
I looked at my invoice and it appears that you charged me more than my monthly plan costs. Since I have a CDI plan which is billed monthly at $9.95, why are you charging me $14.27 this month?
What Is A Prorate Charge?
The additional sum, for which you were billed, is a prorate charge. If you signed up with DreamHost under DH1, you may have done so during the middle of the month. Since you didn't use a full month of hosting by the time billing came around (the first of the next month), you only owed us a fraction of your monthly fee. When this happened, we actually refrained from billing you that month, and instead added that partial month's total on to your bill for the next month.
You weren't charged more, but rather later.
Under DH2, the prorate charge has been eliminated. Your billing date will be the same numerical date each month as the date your service began --- if you began service on April 14, for example, your billing date will be the 14th of each month under DH2.
Of course, there is a chance that you have been wrongly charged. If you have already paid a prorate charge, and have gotten a bill for a total you did not expect, by all means let us know. We will double-check and credit you if necessary.
How can I get an invoice?
One thing that seems to be different about Dreamhost is that I don't receive a monthly invoice. Sure, this saves trees, but it makes it terribly difficult to keep track of my hosting expenses. Can you help? Sure!
You can use the Account Control Panel to view your electronic invoice and print it out.
Simply log on to the Account Control Panel. Select the Billing tab, and click on the Invoice link.
This will take you to a current rundown of your billing, as well as the option to pay off your balance right then and there.
Full History
Type in start and end dates to provide a time frame for your invoice. You can see recent charges, or view your entire account history from the moment you joined up with Dreamhost to the present.
Printing Invoices
So, what if you really do need a paper invoice? Just print a copy of the invoice page! That's more or less what we would do if we sent one to you. This way, you have the efficiency of electronic recordkeeping, as well as the security of being able to produce an up-to-the-day paper record any time you like!

17:57, UK, Saturday 13 December 2008
RAF Tornados were scrambled to intercept two Russian bombers as they threatened to enter UK airspace, it has emerged.
The British planes were part of a special "quick response" squadron scrambled from RAF Leuchars in Scotland.
An air-to-air refuelling tanker was also sent up in case the mission lasted longer.
The Russian Tu-160 Blackjack bombers were tracked on radar as they headed for the North East coast on Thursday night.
Norwegian F-16 fighters were also launched to tail the Russian "zombies".
The Tornados took off just before 10.30pm and tailed the bombers until about 1.30am on Friday.
Sky News understands the Russian aircraft crossed a section of airspace controlled by the UK, but the Ministry of Defence has refused to confirm or comment.
However, the MoD has confirmed the North Sea encounter.
A spokesman told Sky News Online: "Incursions into UK and Nato-monitored airspace from Russian aircraft have occurred on a number of occasions and these aircraft have been identified and tracked, usually before they arrive in UK and Nato airspace, by Nato partners."
A Russian air force spokesman said the bombers were on a "patrol mission".
Colonel Vladimir Drik said Russia resumed regular missions by strategic bombers over the Pacific, Atlantic, and Arctic oceans last August, and that they posed no threat to other countries.
Russia always gave notice of upcoming patrols, he added.
In July 2007 RAF Tornados were scrambled to intercept Tupolev Tu-95 Bears as they threatened to enter UK airspace.
At the time, the MoD said such an encounter was "rare".
RAF Leuchars is home to two squadrons of RAF Tornado aircraft.
Both are part of the QRA (quick reaction alert) structure, first set up to combat the threat of possible Russian attacks during the Cold War.

ST LOUIS (LALATE) – Tonight's Browns vs Ravens 2012 football game (live score below) will offer something that no other NFL game has yet to have this season: regular referees. The Browns vs Ravens game tonight September 27, 2012 will be the first NFL game this season to be officiated by regular not replacement referees, the NFL confirmed in a news statement last night. But while the confusion about referees is now over, another issue is brewing. What channel is the tonight's Browns vs Ravens 2012 game on?
Thursday night NFL channel confusion returns this evening. From week to week, fans are left in channel confusion about NFL games on Thursday. Whether it's Direct TV, Dish TV, or network television, fans are left asking what channel is the Browns vs Ravens 2012 game on tonight? The game will air only on the NFL Network, a cable channel, and won't be available on free network channels like NBC and FOX.
While the real referees are back on Thursday night, the Browns vs Ravens 2012 game will be back on the NFL Channel tonight. Officials confirm the game will have a start time of 8:20 EST. Subscribers of DirecTV can catch the Browns game on channel 212 while Dish Network users can catch it on channel 154. Bell TV and Shaw Direct will provide broadcast for Canadian viewers, officials confirm to news.
And yet, tonight is not particularly the best lineup for a Thursday night game. The Browns come into tonight's game having not won a game this season. They hope to improve on their dreadful 0-3 start by battling the Ravens which are 2-1. But the real key to this game is at quarterback.
Brandon Weeden has been ineffective at quarterback so far in the Browns' first three starts of the season. He has delivered six interceptions already and just three passing touchdowns. That's compared to Joe Flacco's six passing touchdowns and two interceptions. Weeden has a low completion rate also, news analysts note. He is passing at only fifty-seven percent while Flacco is at an impressive sixty-five percent.
Cleveland has been relying this season on its rushing. Trent Richardson has delivered an impressive two rushing touchdowns this season on fifty carries, delivering one hundred seventy-five yards. "It's going to be an honor just being on the same field as Ray Lewis," Richardson tells news. "I've looked up to him for years, still look up to him, especially to his leadership and how he handles things. But you know, it's going to be like another game."
But Ray Rice this season has delivered for Baltimore this season three rushing touchdowns on forty-six carries, across two hundred sixty-eight yards. Rice has already produced a 100-yard rushing game this season.
The vacuum for Cleveland is at receiving. This season, its top two receivers Massaquoi and Ogbonnaya have delivered more than two hundred yards. But they have yet to deliver a single touchdown pass. In contrast, Flacco has working for him the skills of Torrey Smith and Dennis Pitta. Pittta has two touchdown receptions in eighteen total receptions. Smith, in contrast, has ten catches, more than two hundred yards, and two touchdown passes.
One factor news analysts note is that the Ravens have won thirteen straight games at home. They last made news for that stunning win against the Patriots last week. Before tonight's game, the Ravens are tied for first in the AFC North along with the Bengals. The Browns, in contrast, are last in the AFC North. For live score updates tonight, click HERE.

Sept. 27, 2010
DeKALB, Ill. - Following Northern Illinois' second win over a Big Ten Conference program in two years, Northern Illinois tailback Chad Spann and defensive back Jimmie Ward have been honored by the Mid-American Conference as the MAC West Offensive and Specialist of the Week, respectively, the league announced Monday.
Spann was named MAC West Offensive Player of the Week after rushing for a career-best 223 yards on 15 carries Saturday at Minnesota in NIU's 34-23 victory. The senior from Indianapolis, Ind. averaged 14.9 yards per carry and scored a pair of touchdowns, including one on a 61-yard run in the fourth quarter. He also had a run of 56 yards in the first quarter to set up Northern Illinois' first touchdown, and added a 33-yard jaunt in the second period. He tallied the first 200-plus yard game by a Huskie running back since Garrett Wolfe ran for 203 versus Central Michigan in 2006. Spann leads the MAC with 114.5 yards per game and on Sunday was named the Walter Camp FBS Offensive Player of the Week.
Ward, a true freshman from Mobile, Ala., made one of the most critical plays in the Minnesota game when he broke through to block a Gopher punt with 1:22 left in the first half to give Northern Illinois the ball on the UM 11-yard line. The Huskies scored the go-ahead touchdown three plays later to take a 20-13 halftime lead and never trailed again in the game. Ward pressured the punter on two other occasions and narrowly missed a block later in the game. He also contributed three solo tackles on kickoff and punt coverage. Ward's punt block was NIU's first of 2010, and seventh in three seasons under head coach Jerry Kill.
Spann earned the third MAC Player of the Week honor of his career as he was honored following the Akron and Eastern Michigan games during the 2009 season. Ward is the second straight Huskie player to be named the MAC West Specialist of the Week this season; punter Josh Wilber picked up the recognition Sept. 20 following the Illinois game.
Fans can still purchase a three-game season ticket Mini-Plan and see three of the Huskies' four remaining 2010 home games for $50. To purchase the Mini-Plan, go online to www.NIUHuskies.com and click the "Tickets" link or call the NIU Athletics Ticket Office at 815-752-6800. Single game tickets are also available for $20 each ($25 for Homecoming).

Need to Know: Andy Lau
The first in a series of profiles featuring Asian newsmakers from the world of arts, entertainment, culture and fashion.
Pop icon and actor Andy Lau celebrated his 49th birthday on Sept. 27 with more than 1,000 guests, many from one of his fan clubs, at a concert bash at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on Sept. 25, his lunar birthday. (Who performed? Andy did.)
In Chinese culture, 49 is a big birthday — the word "nine" in both Cantonese and Mandarin (gau and jiu, respectively) sounds similar to a word that implies longevity.
Though he's nearing the big 5-0, the striking star still looks youthful. In his latest film, Tsui Hark's "Detective Dee," Mr. Lau plays opposite 34-year-old Chinese actress Li Bingbing. Later this year, the singer plans to perform in a concert he calls "Unforgettable."
Mr. Lau has been a leading man since he began his acting career in 1981. That was when he joined television network TVB's training program. After starring in hit shows such as "The Return of the Condor Heroes," he left television for film and hit it big with a role as Maggie Cheung's love interest in Wong Kar-wai's "As Tears Go By" (1988). More recently Mr. Lau has lit up the screen in three romantic comedies – directed by Johnnie To – with pop star Sammi Cheng: "Needing You" (2000), "Love on a Diet" (2001) and "Yesterday Once More" (2004).
Though Mr. Lau has appeared in some 143 films, most notably Zhang Yimou's "House of Flying Daggers" and Andrew Lau's "Infernal Affairs" trilogy, he is better known as a pop singer. After releasing his first solo album in 1985, he ruled the airwaves throughout the 1990s with Aaron Kwok, Jacky Cheung and Leon Lai. The four solo artists were so popular they were known by fans and the media as the "Four Heavenly Kings."
The Chinese-language Hong Kong newspaper Apple Daily reports that while the actor's parents were on hand for the birthday festivities last month, his real-life leading lady, Carol Chu, whom he married in a secret ceremony in 2008, elected not to attend the public function.

Hi - I would be really grateful for any advice.
I recently got out of hospital after being diagnosed with permanent AFib. Am currently on Digoxin, Amiodarone and Ramipril to slow the HR down, and also Warfarin to prevent blood clotting. Just prior to being admitted, we booked a 2wk holiday to Turkey (2nd May, abt 4hr flight) and was going to shop around for insurance, but never got the chance. We only paid a low deposit. We now find that our only options are to cancel the holiday, and pay/lose 50% of the cost - or still go (and take it easy for 2wks - hotel is right on the beach, so no climbing etc).
I am awaiting an appointment for a CardioVersion, but don't know how long I will have to wait (also have not yet got a follow-up appt with my cardiologist).
Anybody else had any similar situations?

Decided 'what the hell, we are going anyway - and will just take it real easy'
Typically, got my CardioVersion appt through today for 29 April - 3 days before we fly!!! Cardiologist has said over phone that it shouldn't be a problem, can still fly after. I know that I will have to change my meds prior to the CV, and don't want anything to change (as I feel my AF is under relative control at the mo), so am currently thinking about postponing the CV until after we get back from Turkey.

Wow, I'm amazed at how unalarmed you are. I was just diagnosed on March 11, have had echocardiogram, Holter monitor, and nuclear stress test and throughout my dose of Atenolol and Coumadin has been constantly adjusted. Seeing cardiologist in follow-up on Tuesday to find out what's next, probably cardioversion but I'm really scared of it. Anyway, see my journal where I've written daily. And happy flying.

Hiya Nagasaki - thanks for your message. I am alarmed, and not a little angry about our situation (as it should have been diagnosed way, way sooner). I would prefer to delay the hols until toward the end of the year, but we cannot, and everybody seems ok about it.
I have decided to postpone the CV until I come back from Turkey (will only be 3wks later). My meds seem to be controlling the AFib fantastically, and I don't want to stop taking them before I go away.
I may just be rebelling against how vulnerable I feel right now, but I'm determined to get on with my life. Going back to work (desk job) next Weds (2wks after getting out of hospital) - when I am stuck at home I can't think about anything else.
Regard the CV, I am not worried about having it done as my hospital seems to do it all the time, with a 70% rate of getting the patient back in NSR first time (please let me be one of them!).
My Warfarin (Coumadin) dose has stayed constant at 5mg since I started 3 wks ago (and will be having 4 more checks before I fly).
I hope things work out well for both of us - cheers, Lisa

Designing Technology for Visualisation of Interactions on Mobile Devices
Kristine Deray Simeon SimoffUniversity of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia|University of Western Sydney, Australia
Abstract: Interactions are intrinsic part of what we do. We interact when we work, when we learn, whenwe visit a doctor, and when we play. With the advent of information and communicationstechnology we can collect rich data (video, audio, and various transcripts including text chat)about such interactions. This opens an opportunity to monitor the dynamics of interactions andto get deeper insights of how they unfold and deliver this information to the interacting parties.This paper presents the design of a technology for visualising information about the dynamicsof unfolding of interactions and presenting it in an ambient display on mobile devices. Thepurpose of this technology is the delivery of such information to the point of decision making.

Looks like this Church learned the lesson I learned here a few years ago:
A West Bloomfield man was arraigned Thursday on charges that he embezzled more than $600,000 from a Pontiac church over the last six years, the Oakland County Sheriff's Office said.
Reuben Bynum, 61, was released on bond. He had been the financial officer for Trinity Baptist Church until August, when the money was discovered missing, the Sheriff's Office said.
A complaint from a deacon led to a review of church accounts, the Sheriff's Office said. It showed that Bynum forged a signature on church checks and misused a church ATM card.
via West Bloomfield man faces charges of embezzling $600,000 from church | Detroit Free Press | freep.com.
It is a lesson that I learned here back in 2006, which I wrote about here a few weeks ago, when writing about something else — and that is, if a Baptist knows that they can stab you in the back, they will most likely do it. Although, to be fair to my Baptist brethren, most so-called Christians would do it too.

Defensive end Cam Jordan recently received a fifth-year option on his contract keeping him with the New Orleans Saints through the 2015 season. Running back Mark Ingram isn't so sure he'll receive the same treatment.
Ingram said at the Capital One Celebrity Shootout at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans at TPC Louisiana on Tuesday that he's uncertain as to whether or not the Saints will give the No. 28 overall pick in the 2011 NFL draft an added year.
The team has until May 3 to extend a fifth year to Ingram as part of a stipulation in the collective bargaining agreement, which would cost about $5.2 million in base salary. Ingram could become a free agent if the Saints don't exercise the option as his contract expires after the 2014 season.
"I'm not sure if they will pick up the fifth-year option," Ingram said. "I'm just working one day at a time and I'm just glad I'm on a team that's a championship contender."
Ingram added he hasn't had any direct conversation about what kind of role he'll play in the running game with Pierre Thomas and Khiry Robinson fighting for carries as well. Ingram recognized it's assumed his role should increase with Darren Sproles traded to Philadelphia this offseason, but he warned that's just an assumption by others.
Ingram struggled with production and with a toe injury during the first half of the 2013 season. Then he came on strong near the end of last season, including the postseason. Ingram rushed for 83 yards on 13 carries in Carolina in Week 16 and bowled his way to 97 yards on 18 carries and a touchdown in the NFC wild card win in Philadelphia.
The fourth-year tailback did say he's excited to be back with the Saints for the open of voluntary offseason workout program that started Monday.
"I'm working on everything: speed, explosion, strength, power," Ingram said. "Just being a better student of the game. Just trying to help my game in all aspects."
Meanwhile, Ingram and playing partner Darius Rucker from Hootie & the Blowfish won the celebrity shootout Rucker donated his share of the $30,000 first prize to the Hootie & The Blowfish Foundation. Ingram has not yet selected a charity to receive his share.

'War hero' Kyle Luginbyhl admits he created fake military career
PHOENIX - A self-proclaimed war hero, whose phony story of military heroism was exposed by the ABC15 Investigators , has broken his silence.
Kyle Luginbyhl appeared on the local "Vets on Media" webcast.
He apologized for creating a fake military story in what he called an attempt to stoke his ego and win an award from "The Phoenix Business Journal."
Luginbyhl was nominated for the "Health Care Hero" award by his former employer, Angel MedFlight.
A press release written by the company touted Luginbyhl's time as an Army Ranger and tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.
It also claimed he was awarded a Purple Heart and Silver Star.
Luginbyhl was fired by Angel MedFlight after the company discovered his story was made up.
His nomination for the "Health Care Hero" award was also taken away.
You can see Luginbyhl's interview in its entirety below:

Evil comes in groups of threes. We are seeing three evils hit America right now. These evils have but one purpose: To destroy American sovereignty.
What are these three great evils and what now must we do?
The first of these evils is the Law of the Sea Treaty or LOST. LOST appears to be dead as enough Republican Senators have come out against it to kill it. The Second is the UN Small Arms Treaty.
The UN Small Arms Treaty is a great evil due to the fact it is a threat to our Second Amendment rights. While there is always cause for concern anytime our rights are threatened, the NRA has this one pretty much under control and it is very doubtful the Senate will have the votes to ratify this treaty, assuming Obama signs it.
The third evil is flying under the radar. Few people know about it. That is by design.
It is called the Trans Pacific Partnership. It might as well be called the American Suicide Agreement.
It is an agreement that is so bad, at least the parts that we know about it, that America is committing suicide by signing it.
The operative part here is, what we know about it. The negotiations, working papers and almost all details other than a few public sessions have been classified. Congressman Darryl Issa has requested to be allowed to attend the upcoming round of negotiations for the Trans Pacific Partnership.
He's gotten about as much cooperation on that as he has on Fast and Furious.
Traditionally, members of Congress of both parties have been allowed to observe trade negotiations. Why the secrecy for the Trans Pacific Partnership?
Fortunately a few details have leaked out and what we know is very bad.
First, the Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP) will set up foreign tribunals to which the United States MUST submit to. The Supreme Court will no longer be the top court in the United States. The Supreme Court will be subject to the rulings of these foreign tribunals.
The TPP sets up special foreign investor privileges. They would not be subject to the laws that American businesses are subject to and if they did not like it they could sue the American government directly in tribunals set up by the World Bank and thee United Nations.
Oh yes, the US would have a fair trial with judges from China, Iran, Russia and North Korea.
The TPP would gut food safety standards for imported food. Anyone remember the stories about people dying in China because of contaminated food? That kind of contamination does not get into our food supply because we have food safety standards and we stop contaminated food.
Think this is an overreaction? The World Trade Organization just ordered the US to change its consumer labels to tell us where food comes from because Canada and Mexico complained. This is what happened under current law.
Imagine what would happen under TPP?
Do you want to buy meat that came from China? I don't and I want to know if the meat or other foods I am buying come from any place other than Iowa or Texas!
Under the proposed TPP, our government could no longer buy American! Such programs would be considered illegal under the TPP. In other words, Americans would be forced to spend their tax dollars to keep Chinese workers or Vietnamese workers or Mexican workers working but not American workers.
In 1992, the Great Republican Failure, I mean George H.W. Bush favored the NAFTA agreement. So did Bill Clinton. Ross Perot famously warned that we were hearing a giant sucking sound that was NAFTA taking our jobs.
Do you know what?
Perot was right. NAFTA was the first of a series of free trade agreements we signed. All of them have been disasters. Our trade deficits have shot up, our manufacturing base has been destroyed and the American blue-collar middle class is disappearing.
TPP is NAFTA on steroids. The only difference between steroids and NAFTA is that steroids do some good.
In March, the Korean Free Trade Agreement went into effect. Guess what? Our trade deficit with Korea has exploded since then. In May, our trade deficit with Korea had jumped to $2 billion, which is a 53.5% increase over what it was a year earlier. Meanwhile, thanks to this great deal, American exports to Korea are tanking.
How many times to do these idiots have to get it wrong before they figure out they are wrong!
Most people learn from their mistakes. Unfortunately the people who are running our nation are living proof of the adage that our nation was designed by geniuses and is now run by idiots.
This is an issue that crosses ideological lines. Conservative groups oppose this idiocy. Liberal groups oppose this idiocy.
I believe in a concept I call 90% leadership. While there are many issues we can disagree on, there are a lot of issues out there that 90% of Americans will agree on. So why aren't we acting on those?
This is a 90% issue.
90% of Americans agree that we need to protect American jobs. We need to protect American products and businesses. We need to keep our food supply safe.
These are our American priorities.
We need to act now.
TPP is being negotiated behind close doors. We need to create resistance to TPP. Many people, even Congressmen and Senators are not aware of the details of the TPP.
What should you do?
Call your Senators and Congressman. Tell them you want them to demand that the Trans Pacific Partnership be stopped. August is the Congressional recess. Many Congressmen and Senators will be holding town halls or campaign events where constituents can speak to them. Go and tell them you want TPP stopped.
Either we act now or the giant sucking sound we will hear is the end of our economy, our sovereignty and our nation.

Thanks for the information.
Gotta FOCUS The MAIN thing that needs to be done is THROW ALL INCUMBENTS OUT OF CONGRESS concentrating on Dems, butt the R's have betrayed us, as well.
They are doing it ON purpose. How dumb are you?
Can't we stop this by not ratifing it? Or will bama use the excutive order again..........
The current political entity is destroying our country---- we need to s***-can 90% of them-- and we need to start with obummer. Why do conservatives refuse to hit him with his own words and actions? Where was he on student loans as a senator? Well, a NO VOTE-- because he did not need them then---How about on the debt as a senator? Then, once in office he acted differently. We need to publicize and hit him with everything we can--- like-- his heritage is not from the lines of Africans sold into slavery--- his is from the muslims who attacked them and SOLD them into slavery!!
Maybe a large mob, some treason trials and punishments would fix this problem. We all know email, phone calls and faxes do not work anymore.
Thomas you are 100% right. After the first two trials, our problem would be solved.
Why aren't Americans and Politicians privy to what's going on with the TPP? Who is in charge of this?????
Ever wonder why Obama needs his telepromter to speak? That's because he reads better then he thinks. He is given the orders through his telepromter, that the Cabal that's running our Country as well as the World. Ever hear of the Military, Industrial Complex, the ones that have achieved the Monopoly of everything you can think of. They are raking in a lot of Dollars from the American Taxpayers and we are only the Slaves that are making it possible with our Tax-dollars. Banksters anyone?
Ironically, the "third evil" is not the most evil.. The first imposes arbitrary international (read: unenforceable) regulations, the second destroys our sovereignty and rights, and the third.... Removes regulation?
Obviously it is a big bill, and removing our courts from international disputes may in fact eliminate international trade.. But the examples given are perfectly reasonable free-market options. Is this where the Libertarians split from the TeaParty?
1) I would never knowingly buy meat from China, and Mexico may be a close second. Canada I would, but I assume that Canada is involved because of the MadCow scare. The unproven mad cow scare. So I would buy expensive meat from the US, and every once in a while when I'm penny pinching (or if the price is significantly different), I'll buy from Canada. However, if there are no labels.. I won't buy it. Umm. Unless it is Kosher rated. Or something similar.
You see what happened there? I applied my own filter to what I would buy in the market place, and if someone wants to sell to me, they will meet my criteria, or not make a sale.
2) Our government should not be buying meat -- so I have no problems with them not being able to buy american. Besides, they *can* buy american (for things like army rations) if we produce a better product for the cost.
3) What is the problem with buying Korean? They are making products that are very competitive with the Japanese. Thank you very much Korea for your 274 HP Kia Optima. Sorry we don't have anything you may want over here. Meanwhile, we (the US) need to read a couple of books on monetary policy and trade imbalances. Perhaps some Thomas Sowell, someone very good at explaining things in english.
Having said the above, just to be clear, I have no problem tariff-ing the hell out of our enemies such as China or Russia. Or Venezuela, or Argentina, or Bolivia.. You get the gist.
Focus on the command control parts of the bills, folks, and not on the freedom parts. Lets keep the Libertarian / TeaParty alliance strong.
I'm Telling you friends, Ron Paul is not out of the Republican Race! He is the only candidate we can trust to combat this.
Why? He has a proven track record, he is a mature congressman with savvy who knows the game! His track record shows he will NOT COMPROMISE! Believe me, I know you guys get sick of my silly slogan but it is succinct! RON PAUL! HE'S OUR MAN! IF HE CAN'T FIX IT; NOBODY CAN! RON PAUL WILL AND HE CAN! MINIMUM GOVERNMENT IS HIS PLAN!
This whole thing we are seeing now has been in the process for decades... While we sat and watched and exclaimed "OH MY GOD!" and swapped e-mails and blogged but did nothing!
I am in Hong Kong now but absolutely will be back, at the latest, sometime in September! I am willing to do anything I can to help.

South Yorkshire Police has admitted failings after a Wath man hit over the head with a metal pole was left in a cell for ten hours without medical treatment.
Dean Hutton suffered serious brain damage in an attack by brothers Brett and James Garbutt in Rotherham in 2009 but was arrested and taken to a police station, where he was dismissed as drunk.
The 26-year-old, who now needs lifelong care, has taken the next step in his battle for justice as the police admitted their failure to get him treatment sooner led to his further suffering.
Paramedics checked Dean at the scene but when police arrived they arrested him for missing a traffic offence court appearance and he was taken to the station and put in a cell.
It was only after his condition deteriorated over ten hours that he was eventually taken to hospital, where it emerged he had a fractured skull and bleeding to his brain.
His parents launched a fight for compensation to provide Dean with rehabilitation treatment and lifelong care, and police chiefs initially denied responsibility.
But the force has now admitted liability out of court after medical experts said Dean would have made a full recovery had he received medical treatment earlier.
His father, Roy, 59, said before Dean's brain injury, he was completely independent but now needs help with almost everything he does.
"When we first heard about the brain injury we were so worried and we prepared for the worst. But Dean is battling back and his rehabilitation has helped him come a long way.
"He is now attending college and we are just relieved the police have admitted responsibility, meaning we don't have to go to a full trial and that we should be able to access the care and rehabilitation Dean will need for the rest of his life.
"We are angry Dean's injury was not accounted for and so dealt with by police officers sooner."
A compensation hearing will be held at a later date to determine how much money the family should receive.
Dean currently receives specialist rehabilitation and physiotherapy and needs support with daily activities.
He also attends Dearne Valley College three times a week to study maths, English and IT. His attackers, were found guilty of grievous bodily harm with intent at Sheffield Crown Court and were jailed for seven years, five months and five years.
This is disgusting, South Yorkshire police are absolutely rubbish. The officers involved should be locked up for letting all their authority go to their heads.
bit over top but it was not the police that bashed him over head but he was not such a goods boy before the thugs bashed him they should pay not us tax payers
