Jewish Care has set a £250,000-plus target for its Pesach appeal, highlighting the challenges in caring for the elderly population.
The appeal features the story of Jack and Joan, who struggled to cope when Joan was diagnosed with dementia. It explains how the staff at the charity's Kay Court, where Joan went to live, noticed how calming it was for her to have Jack around and encouraged him to spend as much time at the home as possible. This way, his needs could also be addressed.
"Joan is so well looked after," Jack says. "The staff are fantastic to both of us. They are wonderful people and I can't thank them enough."
In a letter to supporters, Jewish Care chief executive Simon Morris writes: "The care and understanding we offer people like Jack and Joan is simply unavailable elsewhere. We have to find the resources to carry on being there for people like them, as well as the determination to adapt to the changing needs of our ageing community."

Someone's going down, Mayweather, Ortiz agree
by Andreas Hale
Photos by Chris Cozzone
It's like two freight trains coming at one another; which is usually not the case in a Floyd Mayweather fight. But come September 17, Floyd Mayweather and Victor Ortiz have both promised one thing and one thing only. Both have guaranteed that their WBC welterweight title clash in Las Vegas won't be decided by judges. On Saturday night, their fists will be the judge, jury and executioner.
This is something you might expect from "Vicious" Victor Ortiz. In all 33 of his fights, Ortiz (29-2-2) has made every single one of his opponents taste the canvas. The 24-year-old, fresh off of his resounding victory over Andre Berto to claim the WBC title, may be in another league now as he is facing Mayweather, but he is quite comfortable with his declaration that he'll end "Money" Mayweather's winning streak in resounding fashion.
"I'd like to thank Floyd Mayweather for this opportunity," Ortiz said at Wednesday's final press conference before their epic battle. "But then again, I am the WBC welterweight champion of the world and that will remain. I'm going to teach you what it feels like to have that one loss on your record, bro."
Ortiz moves with a chip the size of a boulder on his shoulder. Ever since his loss to Marcos Maidana, where he was criticized for giving up, Ortiz has bottled up his emotions and unleashed them on his opponents on fight night. He's always smiling and speaks with a whimsical "I-don't-give-a-f*ck" attitude that is fitting for a rebel without a cause. But Ortiz does, in fact, have a cause – to become the best pound for pound fighter in the world. Floyd Mayweather is just a hurdle in his path to success.
"He was one of the best fighters. He was pound for pound champion. But now it's our time," Ortiz' trainer Danny Garcia boasted. "We're here to beat him. Victor is ready to do everything he can to take the victory. He's going to be the #1 pound for pound fighter for sure."
To say that Team Ortiz was brimming with confidence would be an understatement. But what was more interesting about this press conference was the level of intensity and annoyance that Floyd Mayweather showcased throughout. Known to toss a verbal jab or two during the pre-fight hype, Mayweather appeared to be a little more incensed when listening to Garcia's diatribes of how he was both "scared" and a "dirty" fighter.
The 34-year-old Mayweather minced words with Garcia and his fighter ten years Mayweather's junior. Usually Mayweather allows his opponents' words to roll off his back on press day, but he wouldn't stand for the disrespect and made sure to remind Team Ortiz that this is Money's world and they are just running around trying to get acclimated to their surroundings.
"I'm a scared fighter that's been dominating the sport for the past sixteen years," the current pay-per-view king barked at Garcia. "All of these people are here because of me!"
At 41-0 (25 KOs), Mayweather has seen the Promised Land more times than perhaps all of his opponents combined. His stay at the top of the sport has been twice as long as others entire careers and the spotlight never burns his thick skin. But this is different. Mayweather isn't fighting a future hall-of-famer or a small fighter, he's playing the role of teacher as a starving student looks to cash in on Mayweather's legacy while forging one of his own.
But Mayweather isn't having that.
"I don't have to knock him or his trainer," Mayweather explained. "It's obvious he did something right to get here. But I've been here for sixteen years for doing something right. I've fought undefeated fighters and knockout punchers. I've fought them all. I never backed down, stayed focused and was at my best."
To be at his best, Mayweather does things to get under the skin of his opponents. In this case, the five-division world champion opted to dig into the past of both Ortiz and Garcia. By now, everyone is aware that Ortiz was abandoned by his mother, but the whereabouts of his father has been often debated. Not only has Mayweather stated that Ortiz' father never bailed out on him, the boastful undefeated fighter took the past a step further by inviting Garcia's brother and lightweight champion Brandon Rios, both of whom are currently embroiled in feuds with Ortiz and Garcia, to Saturday's fight.
If its head games you want, its head games you will get from Floyd Mayweather.
Nevertheless, Mayweather seems incensed to put on an explosive performance on Saturday night at the expense of Ortiz.
"You guys don't have to worry about me back peddling," Mayweather said. "I'm coming straight ahead, he's coming ahead. He said the fight won't go the distance, I said the fight won't go the distance. Trust me, it won't go the distance."
Unfazed, Ortiz promises to dispatch of Mayweather in a highlight reel fashion.
"It's going to be very nice to do what everyone else failed to do," Ortiz said. "41-0? Forty one of those weren't me. Forty one of those couldn't win it like I can. Saturday night, I will hold my hand up and I'm going to put you on your ass."
Somebody is going down.

I have been looking for research concerned with the following construct: Let $X$ be a set (most likely with a topology) and let $R$ be a subset of the family of all subsets of $X$. $R$ could be the power set of $X$, or a ring, or a Borel family, etc. of subsets. I am interested in the space of all real-valued functions on $R$ (call it $L$) and further, the subspace of $L$ consisting of those functions that are additive on disjoint elements (I realize there are issues of countably additive vs. finitely additive, etc., but this is the general idea).
I was wondering if anyone had seen any work in this kind of context and might offer some "keywords" so I could track down papers, parts of books, etc. to research my issue.
Thanks much for any information.

A conversation recently took place with a trusted veteran patriot who is a principled Constitutionalist. He stated, "As the current tyranny and despotism apply a heavier jackboot to our throats, the centralized government needs to know that there are some things we will not do no matter what."
Given how brazenly the Congress, the Courts, and the White House have attacked the personal, individual liberties of the citizens, a consensus seems to have emerged as to what, exactly, the resistance movement will not do no matter how much pressure is applied from the collectivists who run this government. Naturally this will involve civil disobedience.
Americans are going to have to get over thinking that the term "civil disobedience" is an unpatriotic, anti-American act that was indicative of the anti-war movement of the 1960s. The stalwart patriots of today love their country the way it was envisioned by the Framers in the Founding Documents. And it was those very same Framers who stated that when government crosses the line and begins to issue laws and edicts that are contrary to the original intent of the Framers, the citizens have a duty, a moral responsibility, to disobey the government. These sentiments were expressed eloquently and forcefully by Jefferson and Madison in particular, but by no means were they the only ones among the Framers who felt that way. This is one of the reasons they insisted that the citizens be armed. The primary reason, among others, is to deter and stop illegal acts by their own government. Jefferson believed that so tempting and seductive is the lure of bigger and bigger government that confiscates money from its citizens in the form of taxes to pay for it's programs that the country would probably need a revolution once every 20 years or so to rid the government of the charlatans and restore the Constitution as the final rule of law in the land.
The patriots of today are so adamant about guarding liberty and protecting the freedoms delineated in the Constitution from the groping, pilfering hands of politicians that they have pledged their very lives to defend that Constitution at all costs. This they intent to do by refusing to obey any law that flies in the face of Constitutional principles.
Here are at least some of the things such stalwart citizens will not do, no matter how heavy the government jackboot is laid to our throats.
-- We will not obey unconstitutional gun laws that weaken and render powerless the right of the people to keep and bear arms. This judge handed down an opinion this week that should be cause for alarm. This is what we are up against. But we will not obey, neither will we obey any limits on ammunition or magazines.
-- We will not obey any government directive that claims we cannot have adequate fire power to protect ourselves from a heavily armed centralized government. We will get the goods no matter what you say. Welcome to the largest black market in the world. You "progressive" tyrants created it. You should be happy about it. If "we the people" ever get ready to oust you for your crimes, we will get all the fire power and equipment we need. Live with it.
-- We will not participate in your lying, deceitful Ponzi schemes that are just as illegal as the kind carried out by Bernie Madoff. We are fresh out of money, the debt has skyrocketed to over $17 trillion and to over $100 trillion if you add in unfunded liabilities such as Social Security and Medicare. Yes, dear reader. It is time for you to wake up from your long sleep and accept the truth. Your government has been lying to you all along. There is no money in your Social Security fund. Neither is there any money in the Medicare fund. It's all paper, and it's all IOUs. Currently the government has no real money to fund these programs and countless others. The money you already receive if you are in these programs is borrowed from somewhere else. Why? Because your government spent it all, every red nickel, in the Social Security Trust Fund. That's right. Your government not only confiscated your money out of your paycheck against your will but it proceeded to spend it on other things once it went to Washington. And you are not really ready yet to know the full truth about Obamacare. All that can be said is make sure your life insurance policies are all up to date. You haven't seen anything yet.
-- We will work toward refusing to allow our children to attend public schools. We will encourage family members to take their children out of public schools if we do not have children in school. Do not wait another day. You do not want one more hour of propaganda being used to brainwash your children. Plus, simply refuse to subsidize the education of illegal aliens. Why is it that "progressives" believe that America should provide free education to the whole world? Get out of that system now. And demand of your local politicians that unless you have children in those schools, you don't want your taxes going to it, period.
-- We will refuse to hire illegal aliens, period. If you are doing that sort of thing, then you are just as much a lowlife lawbreaker as the illegal aliens. If we stop hiring them, they will go away.
-- We will not continue to support the Fascist money scheme represented by banks and investment firms that work in tandem with government. Therefore, we will work toward getting all of our money out of these entities. If you do not physically possess your money and hold it in your hand, it is not really yours. Government can confiscate it. In fact, it has already done so many times even as recently as FDR's administration. Roosevelt also confiscated gold owned by citizens. You need a system of possessing and then hiding your funds so that prying, roving eyes can't see it and take it by simply declaring a "national emergency."
-- We will refuse to allow government agents to monitor the free speech of pastors, evangelists, and other religious workers. We are ready to implement measures to insure you cannot enter a place of worship incognito. We are watching you just like you watch us. We will follow you wherever you go in the building and take note of where you sit. And if necessary we will call you out in public, asking you to leave the premises. Since you are there not for spiritual motives but only to find a way to use your illegal laws to assault a pastor and/or church for saying whatever they want, then we have no qualms about throwing you out. You have spied on us for too long and in too many ways. Now, it's our turn.
These measures are a mere beginning. This is the very least we can do. And if necessary, there is much more to come.

Will this be the next phase of "Obamacare"? Gotta wonder…
'Sharia Medicine': Egyptian Clinic Treats People with Camel Urine
(h/t: Blazing Cat Fur)
A recent Egyptian TV program showed how Islamic Sharia law's many prescriptions do not merely clash with modern-day concepts like free speech and religious freedom, but even with medicine and science.
On September 16, popular TV persona Wael El-Ibrashi hosted Dr. Zaghlul al-Naggar, a prominent Islamic thinker and Chairman of Egypt's Committee of Scientific Notions in the Quran, on the topic of medical science and Islam. Inevitably the idea of drinking camel urine as a form of therapy—first proposed in the 7th century by Muslim prophet Muhammad—came up.
Not only did Dr. Naggar promote this practice, but he made the staggering announcement that right now in Egypt a medical center in Marsa Matrouh actually specializes in treating people with camel urine, all in accord with the prophet's advice.
Other Egyptian thinkers joined the show via satellite, including Khaled Montaser (who earlier exposed the Islamic world's "inferiority complex"). At one point, while delineating how science and medicine work, Montaser reminded that urine is where all the body's toxins are carried out, asking "so, shall we drink it for health?" Naggar simply responded with arrogance: "I am older than you and more learned than you: you are not going to teach me; I will teach generations of people like you."
Egyptian thinker, Sayyid al-Qemany—whose strong support for rationalistic thinking and the separation of religion and state caused Egypt's Islamic establishment to pronounce him an apostate infidel—also joined the show via phone, deploring the very idea that drinking camel urine could heal people.
Referring to Naggar's announcement that there is a clinic specializing in treating people with camel urine as a "catastrophe" that only indicates how far Egypt has sunk, Qemany called on Egyptian health officials to verify if such a medical center truly exists, saying this is a serious issue involving the health of Egypt's citizenry.
Naggar tried to defend the "salutary benefits" of camel urine by arguing that European pharmacies produce a medicine that contains female urine (possibly a reference to HCG). Qemany replied that such medicines are not based on drinking crude urine but are synthetic, exclaiming, "does this mean I should go drink my wife's urine?!"
As any sane person knows, urine is a waste product.
At best, this is medical quackery, in that drinking urine from any source has no value in curing disease. Human and animal bodies excrete urine in order to rid themselves of chemical waste products that would rapidly become toxic if they were allowed to build up. Anyone who ingests urine is overloading his body with chemicals that it needs to get rid of. Moreover, urine from a person or animal can contain infectious microbes from the bladder or urethra, as well as significant quantities of various medications and/or toxins that the person or animal has ingested or absorbed.

Watchers Flock to Web for News in Russian Trial
For the first few hours Monday, it seemed that the trial of three young women for their anti-Putin "punk prayer" in Moscow's main cathedral would become a landmark for Russian judicial openness, with the proceedings broadcast live on the Internet. The case, which has become a symbol of the Kremlin's crackdown on its critics this year, has drawn the rapt attention of the capital's Web-connected opposition.
But within a few hours of the opening of the hearing Monday, Judge Marina Syrova granted a prosecution motion to cut off the broadcast of the testimony against the defendants, citing potential risk to the witnesses from supporters of the defendants, known as Pussy Riot.
That left the numerous trial watchers who weren't able to squeeze into the courtroom to rely on live blogs of the action in Twitter and elsewhere online. Voina, a performance-art group that has had several run-ins with the authorities, conducts a particularly colorful one, with no attempt to conceal its support for the defendants (@gruppa_voina). Defense lawyers also are actively tweeting from the courtroom (@moscow_advokat, @volkova_v).
Perhaps paradoxically, one of the most detailed accounts comes from a branch of the RIA-Novosti state news agency that covers the judicial system closely (and handled the webcast of the trial until the judge ordered the cameras removed). RAPSI, as the service is known, is providing short, pithy updates every few minutes on the action in and around the court (Monday's live blog is in Russian; Tuesday's can be found here. An English version of the RAPSI blog can be found here.)
On Monday, the reporters (Anna Shubina and Anna Mogilevskaya) wrote 126 posts from when they arrived at the Khamovnichesky Court ("in the building it's like the metro at rush hour, but a guard with a machine-gun walked through and suddenly there was plenty of room," was the 10:38 a.m. post) until the marathon hearing was adjourned at 9:52 pm ("the twelfth hour of live blogging has started, that's a record for RAPSI" said the post at 9:32 p.m.).
Defense lawyers complained several times that the defendants hadn't had a chance to eat at all during the day, but the judge brushed off the concerns. RAPSI's reporters noted that regulations allow hearings to continue until 10 p.m.
Tuesday's hearing started at 10:30 a.m. The RAPSI reporters noted it had been moved to a smaller courtroom and only 10 journalists were allowed in ("RAPSI correspondent Anna Shubina after hand-to-hand combat fought her way in to the courtroom," was the report at 10:18 a.m.).
The first witness was Vasily Tsyganyuk, a church worker who witnessed the brief performance. Defense lawyers asked if he'd ever had to deal with the "possessed" in church. The judge disallowed a question on whether he thought the defendants were "possessed."
The trial is expected to continue until late this week. Charged with hooliganism motivated by religious hatred, the women face up to seven years in prison.

Question? Driving into NC. from NJ. with a Florida permit if my firearm is locked away in the trunk of my car and I happen to get stopped by LEO Do I still have to disclose that I have a firearm in the vehicle unless I am asked? :smile:
Printable View
Question? Driving into NC. from NJ. with a Florida permit if my firearm is locked away in the trunk of my car and I happen to get stopped by LEO Do I still have to disclose that I have a firearm in the vehicle unless I am asked? :smile:
However, Florida CCW permits are valid in NC. If you are CARRYING, then yes, NC is a notification state. If approached by an officer, the FIRST thing you must do is announce that you have a Concealed carry permit and that you are armed. (simply handing your permit to the officer with your DL, is NOT the equivilent here)
when the officer approached your window and says whatever, I have found the best thing to do is say:
"Sir, before we begin, I want to disclose that I have a concealed carry permit and am currently armed. How would you like me to proceed?"
I have found this to be a very effective way of phrasing it, and find that most officers appreciate it - to the point of getting warnings when I really should have gotten a ticket.
I have personally stopped individuals in violation of the Motor Vehicle Codes and have opted for a warning instead of a violation ticket on the basis of their honesty in informing me that they were armed. Now that I think about it, I issued a lot more warnings than tickets. I kind of saved those for the individuals that really needed one, most of the time I could get my message across with the warning, and that is all I wanted to do in the first place. :nono:
Handgun law page for NC. Make sure you look through it. Maybe even print a copy for the trip. Some of the NC laws are odd compared to other states.
NC honors the Fl non res, take it out of the trunk and keep it where it belongs-on you! And enjoy our fine state. :smile:
It's my understanding that NC law requires that you notify an LEO that you have a permit first, and alway, and then inform him/her that you are armed or not armed. I may not be properly informed but I don't think that that's the case. And I have found out that the website that provides a pdf of state laws is not always maintained very well so using that as the final word isn't the best plan (this from Durham PD LEO). In any case, I believe it's a better practice. Your CC permit will flag when they run your license and then you've got a potentially distrusting officer coming back to your vehicle to have a conversation that could have been avoided.
Our laws also say that the gun has to be inaccessable so, in theory, locked in a soft case and sitting in the back seat of the vehicle would not be concealed. I don't know if that's been tested in a court. I think it would be first determined on the spot and later decided in a court room should the LEO decided your cased gun in the back seat was actually concealed. So, always inform regardless.
Some of the folks think if you're a NJ resident that you can only transport to/from a range,gun shop,gun training,exc. The NJ law doesn't seem to say anything about leaving the state with firearms. I presume it's legal as long as it's stored properly and you don't stop in NJ, but the NJ laws are quite vague and are written so everything not expressly allowed by law are thus illegal.
If you are not armed...there is no reason to mention you have a carry permit.
Since the OP is from NJ with a FL license, a NC LEO running his license will not turn up a carry permit.
Generally, the best place for up-to-date gun info is the State website....but Handgunlaw.us is normally updated within a day or so of any changes and makes a good starting location.
To the OP: your FL license is good the moment you cross the MD-VA state line. Pull it outta the trunk at that point. :danceban:
Now I am not a lawyer, but the statute states one must declare being a permit holder and that he is armed whenever he is carrying concealed.Quote:
§ 14 415.11. Permit to carry concealed handgun; scope of permit.
(a) Any person who has a concealed handgun permit may carry a concealed handgun unless otherwise specifically prohibited by law. The person shall carry the permit together with valid identification whenever the person is carrying a concealed handgun, shall disclose to any law enforcement officer that the person holds a valid permit and is carrying a concealed handgun when approached or addressed by the officer, and shall display both the permit and the proper identification upon the request of a law enforcement officer. In addition to these requirements, a military permittee whose permit has expired during deployment may carry a concealed handgun during the 90 days following the end of deployment and before the permit is renewed provided the permittee also displays proof of deployment to any law enforcement officer.
Having possession of a gun (i.e., it is in the trunk) is not the same as carrying concealed, therefore declaration of the permit and firearm are not required. If you wish too, feel free, but the OP asked if he "had" to disclose.
The answer is no.

Nov. 29, 2012
Los Angeles, Calif. - Senior midfielder Ryan Hollingshead and junior defender Joe Sofia were each named to the Capital One Academic All-America Team, as announced by the organization today. Sofia received first-team honors while Hollingshead was named to the third-team.
Sofia, a native of Dove Canyon, Calif., led the Bruins with 1,789 minutes this season and was a second-team All-Pac-12 selection in 2012. He started all 19 matches for the Bruins and set new career-highs with two goals and four assists this year, all while anchoring the UCLA back line from the center-back position. Sofia sports an outstanding 3.95 GPA as a Communications major and was a first-team Pac-12 All-Academic selection in 2011 and 2012. He is also the first UCLA men's soccer player to earn first-team honors on the Capital One Academic All-America Team.
Hollingshead, the 2012 Pac-12 Player of the Year, also started all 19 of UCLA's matches this season and led the team with 22 points (7 g, 8 a). He also finished the season tied with Reed Williams for the team lead in goals and captained the Bruins to a 13-3-3 record. Off the field, Hollingshead owns a 3.48 GPA as a Psychology major and is on track to graduate after the 2012 Fall Quarter. He also has been named to the Pac-12 All-Academic team three years in a row, earning second-team honors in 2010 and 2011 and first-team honors in 2012.
UCLA has now landed five players all-time on the Capital One Academic All-America Team (Sofia and Hollingshead, 2012; Chandler Hoffman 2011; Zach Wells, 2003; Josh Keller, 1997). This is also the first time in both Sofia and Hollingshead's careers that they have been named to the Academic All-America team.
To be eligible for Academic All-America® consideration, a student-athlete must be a varsity starter or key reserve, maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.30 on a scale of 4.00, and have reached sophomore athletic and academic standings at his/her current institution.

This is a guest post by Shahab Kaviani, Co-Founder and CEO at CoFoundersLab, the largest marketplace of entrepreneurs seeking a co-founder to launch or grow their business.
Over the last couple years, I've visited lots of startup communities to help integrate CoFoundersLab into the local startup ecosystem. My journey started in my hometown of Rockville, MD, in the Washington, D.C. metro area and has continued to other cities including Los Angeles, New York, and Boulder. I'd like to share my latest adventure to Chicago, where we kicked off our inaugural Co-Founders Wanted Chicago event, a free Meetup to match up co-founders.
Our inaugural event was held at 1871, and I'm happy to report that the startup scene in Chicago is alive and well. There are a number of other places in town that have made tremendous contributions to making Chicago's startup scene so vibrant, but 1871 has done a great job pulling the community together in a number of ways. They offer workshops and co-working space, and have brought in many impactful tenants that help the community including Excelerate Labs, Founding Moms, Northwestern University and Starter League, all of whom we value as community partners and were instrumental in accommodating such a welcoming launch into Chicago.
A couple observations about what made our Chicago launch unique. Of all the cities we've been to thus far, no other city had as many people stand up and volunteer at the event to offer to help keep the CoFoundersLab torch burning. Our online matching platform and local Meetup events are free, so we rely on local volunteers to help promote, organize, and run the events every couple of months.
I was amazed and inspired by how many people sincerely wanted to join in and help the Chicago startup community. From my short two-day adventure, I got the impression that Chicago seems less fragmented than other major cities like D.C., LA, and NYC. By this I mean there are a few incredible resource sites, communities, and events that most people get behind such as Technori, Built in Chicago, and Entrepreneurs Unpluggd.
Geographically speaking, from talking with Adam Haun from MobileMakers, I learned that there's River North (where 1871 is located) and the West Loop. It was so refreshing to hear Adam's vision of trying to unite these two regions. Adam's commitment and sense of singularity would make Brad Feld, author of Startup Communities, proud.
I also had a chance to meet with Troy Henikoff and Tony Wilkins from Excelerate Labs who are helping launch great companies in Chicago. My experience with Tony, an Entrepreneur in Residence at Excelerate Labs, was perfect; not only was he supportive of my movement, but he made an on-the-spot introduction to a great potential partner who was sitting across the room at 1871. These are the types of rapid synergies concentrated startup communities create.
I'm looking forward to watching Chicago become a major player in startup land, and proud to be a part of it!
In addition to the 1871 team and the other people mentioned in this article who were all instrumental in standing up CoFoundersLab in Chicago, I'd like to also give big ups to Jason Jacobsohn, Director at Founder Institute Chicago and Joe Abraham at BOSI. Oh and Joe, I'll never forgive you for stealing my title as The Entrepreneur's Biggest fan. 😉
Go Chicago! Entrepreneurs Unite!

The space shuttle Endeavour's crew members received their wakeup call at 1:31 p.m. CDT. Their wakeup song for the day was 'Sharing the World,' a song written by Pilot Gregory H. Johnson's brother.
Mission Specialists Rick Linnehan and Robert L. Behnken will spend the day outside the station, performing the mission's third spacewalk. During this spacewalk, the spacewalkers will be finishing up the assembly of Dextre, the Canadian Space Agency's Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator. They'll add a tool holster, a stowage platform and a camera system to the robot, and then remove thermal covers that have been protecting the robot's system during its assembly.
The spacewalkers will also get the Spacelab Logistics Pallet on which the robot was assembled ready for return to Earth in the shuttle's cargo bay, and install some spare equipment -a yaw joint for the station's robotic arm, Canadarm2, and two spare direct current switching units -on the station's exterior for future use.
Before heading back into the station, Behnken will also install on the station's exterior Materials International Space Station Experiment 6A and 6B. MISSE 6 is a science experiment that will gather data on how materials and coatings are affected by the extreme environment of space. It's scheduled to stay outside the station for about six months.
The spacewalk is scheduled to start at 6:23 p.m. and should last about six and a half hours.

I was browsing through Netflix the other day and in the 'suggested watching for Carly' section, Dawson's Creek popped up. You nailed it Netflix. Well done. I've since had a constant loop of DC in the background as I go about my day. Here's a list of things that I've noticed this time around that barely registered the first time I watched it.
12 Obversations From Re-Watching Dawson's Creek As An Adult
1. They use 'puke' as both a noun and an insult. Like 'You're being a total puke.' It's magical.
2. Dawson beats the shit out of Pacey for calling him an 'Oompa Loompa' and then explains himself by saying that those words are like 'kryptonite' to him. I just can't even.
3. Joey has breasts Dawson has genitalia and this is an actual line in the show.
4. Jen dresses like this.
Typically wearing chunky slip on shoes, little spaghetti strap dresses and vampy lipstick. She also sometimes wears little gem clips in her hair. All of this pleases me greatly.
5. Katie Holmes is totally weird about her own arms. She just doesn't have any idea what to do with them. She also delivers 90% of her lines out of the side of her mouth while awkwardly not looking anywhere in particular. She's like a new-born praying mantis.
6. They play truth or dare like they're in court under oath. In real life people just lie. In Dawson's Creek they cry and start monologing about all their 'feelings' and 'hormones'.
7. They are all very aware of their 'hormones'.
8. Pacey was responsible for a large percentage of teenage lady bonerism in the late 90s and it's nice to note his appeal is transcendent. Pacey is timelessly shaggable.
9. Joey Potter singing On My Own in the episode 'Beauty Pageant' is one of my favourite things that's ever happened. On a totally metaphorical level I mean. The river is like the creek and Joey is like Dawson's Eponine. Layers people. This show is deep.
10. There's this amazing moment where Joey and Dawson tell each other how sad they would be if the other one died. It was probably the most pointless scene of the season.
11. Joey's older sister Bessie has an African-American boyfriend and it's apparently the biggest deal in the world. Joey constantly refers to her 'interacial and illigitimate' nephew and her sisters 'black boyfriend'. Its strangely backwards for 1999 and super cringey to hear in 2014.
12. Dawson is a ligitimate arse pelican. He's just a bit of a selfish jerk, most of the time.
Also this.
There's so much awesome in this photo, I'm having trouble communicating it. James and Katie got the Venga Bus Dance Party brief for the photo shoot while Michelle and Josh got the Uncomfortable Yet Smouldering brief. Josh is wearing thongs. James looks like he just dropped a giant fart. You can see all of Michelle's underwear through her dress and I don't know what the hell Katie is doing but I think it's the most stuff I've ever seen her doing ever.
Have you ever re-watched a must loved show as an adult? Was it weird? Also were you a 'Creekster'?

Would you believe that I've never seen Dawsons Creek? I wasn't allowed to watch it as a tween and I haven't yet had the pleasure as an adult.
- Author
OH EM GEE. Watch it girlfriend. I think you'll love it.
I loved Dawson's Creek and endeavour to watch it again with both my daughters. It will be interesting watching the show again and taking it all in with different eyes. As well as encountering the thoughts of both my daughters.
- Author
Yeah I wonder how it will translate. I started watching Buffy as an adult having not watched it as a teenager and I have to say, I'm struggling. I'll keep trying!
SO with you on number 5 – she's super awkward turtle. Although I hadn't noticed the arms, so clearly now I need to watch it all again 😉
- Author
She IS An awkward turtle. The arms are unbearable. I've ruined it for now I promise.
This is one of the greatest articles I've ever read on Smaggle. I always was a Dawson fan… so much, my first email was dawsonschick and my password to everything (ie. ICQ, MSN) was always 'capeside'. Well done Carly!
- Author
HA! Thank you… although now I'm freaked out. I feel like someone I went to school with at an email of dawsonschick…
No, but I watched Sex and the City when I was married, then when I became single. Completely different meaning.
Times have changed for the female stars of that show – Michelle Williams is now super cool and talented, and Katie Holmes married Tom Cruise.
And very few teenagers talk like that.
- Author
Oh weird! I imagine that WOULD change the meaning of Sex and the City! Michelle Williams is certainly not as irritating as she was in the 90s but I can't say Katie Holmes life choices have been that brilliant. When has marrying Tom Cruise ever worked out for anyone? 🙂
I've also decided to re-watch Dawson's – just because I can – and the first thing I noticed was how dated the fashion was/is
- Author
It's amazing. All the open shirts over all the undershirts ALL THE TIME.
well, now I feel a pressing need to re watch Dawson's creek.
my husband and I are re-watching Coupling at the moment (British show from maybe 2001-ish?) for the first time since watching it when we first got together. we can appreciate it now for being a hilarious show, but it's reminding me of how awkward it was to watch at first as a couple in a new relationship – considering the whole show is basically about the embarrassing things people do in new relationships. top stuff.
- Author
Feel the pressing need and then succumb. It will be totally worth it. Coupling is AMAZING!
I am doing the same thing right now with the original Beauty and the Beast. I loved this show as a child, and I think it's why I'm drawn to all things starring Ron Perlman. Hello, Hellboy! It's so campy and overdone in a funny way as an adult but also still so endearing and sappy in love at the same time. I can't wait til he starts hunting for his love child. Aah, revisiting childhood.
- Author
Beauty and the Beast? Is that a show? Like based on the movie? I don't think I've heard of it!
Yes, from the early 80s. Here's the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beauty_and_the_Beast_(1987_TV_series) Best costumes ever.
Oh you my friend are pure gold. And those chunky heels and strappy tops – got to love the late '90s – so often overlooked in favour of the '80s.
- Author
I know! Even though sometimes I look at chics like Buffy and think their hair is weird I generally think that lacey, goth look is quite beautiful… but then I was raised on Charmed so I don't think I'll ever get it out of my system!
I watched it again, episode one til the bitter end, about 5 years ago. On my couch, eating noodles. it was fucking fantastic. Everything was amazing, no complaints from me. On My Own is still one of the best things to happen on TV. Second only to this: http://replygif.net/i/347.gif
- Author
I can't wait to see that in real life! Do you remember specifically what was happening when this miracle face occured?
Sure do! Don't want a spoiler though, do ya?
- Author
Is it a death of some kind? Like an older character? (If my memory serves me correctly.)— Sent from Mailbox for iPhone
your memory serves, and that death is pretty brutal. But this face isn't from that!
- Author
Oh! Just tell me!!! Most big events happen 4 or 5 times in Cape Side so I'm sure it won't spoil much! — Sent from Mailbox for iPhone
it does… it changes everything. but that should be enough of a clue!
ba ha ha ha… I am cackling outloud like a crazy person. "Legitimate arse pelican" consider yourself mine!! Best insult ever. x
- Author
Take it honey! I think I first read it on Helen Razar but I really want it to become part of the every day vernacular.
If they can make " totes amazeballs" a thing surely this will happen 🙂
I re-watched most of the first season when I was sick last year and could barely stand Joey's eye rolling,awkward body language and general stinky 'tude the second time around! Also the Halloween episode almost made me crap my pants.
- Author
Oh my god totally! It was freaky! Joey is just a little ball of negatively.
Loving the Les Mis friend zone ref, poor Eponine! That last photo perfectly showcases the awkwardness of "new born preying mantis" Holmes. Might just have to re-watch this now!
- Author
You really should. It's a total game changer.
I remember seeing some of 7th Heaven on tv and getting totally creeped out by it! I was only a casual watcher of Dawson's Creek, but enough to remember it for ALL THE ANGST haha.
- Author
Oh it is ALL THE ANGST. It's also all the INCREDIBLY WEAK PLOT LINE! I swear none of the characters have any substance and they keep breaking up with each other for no real reason.
Jen's Gran was the most awesome character on that show. Pretty much every line she had was offering people food! Well, when she wasn't trying to pull Jen into line.
- Author
Totally! Jen was actually just really super rude to her! I rememeber watching it and thinking that my mother would kill me if I spoke to my grandmother like that!
I cannot overstate how much I enjoyed this post. So much awesome, it would have taken the entirety of Dawson's Creek to fit it in.
That group photo and your description of it had me in tears. THE LAUGHS, THE LAUGHS.
I never watched Dawson's Creek when I was younger. Last year my brother was on a kick, watching teen dramas of all kinds and sizes. He started innocently enough with Friday Night Lights, then moved to One Tree Hill "because they play basketball, it's a sports show", and gradually moved to Dawson's Creek. I attempted to watch it with him for Pacey, but I just couldn't. Nope.
Lol @ joey talking out the side of her mouth! That annoys me to no end but it's still one of my fav shows! Also where did Bessie's "black boyfriend" get too?? He just seems to disappear :/
[…] I've officially hit the rock bottom on Netflix. I'm over Dawson's Creek now. Once everyone has dated everyone at least once all the magic disappears from the show. I've now moved on to Ghost Whisperer. It has the most shallow plot of any television show […]
[…] gods for surely I have been blessed. Earlier this year I wrote an article about what it was like to re-watch Dawson's Creek as an adult so I thought it was only fitting to throw together 9 Observations from Re-Watching Gilmore Girls as […]
[…] please and make mine a double! I do enjoy re-watching stuff as a grown up (I've written about Dawson's Creek, Gilmore Girls and Ghost Whisperer should you be interested) and then dissecting it on this here […]

BOSTON (CBS) — The Boston Celtics haven't had much luck when it comes to the NBA Draft Lottery, and that continued Tuesday night as they landed the sixth overall pick in June's draft.
It could have been a lot worse, with memories of 2007's second-to-fifth drop, but Rich Keefe is here to make everyone feel a little better on the latest edition of "Keefer Madness."
Keefe and Adam Jones take a trip down memory lane and look at some of the more famous sixth overall picks throughout the history of the NBA draft. The Celtics have selected sixth overall five times in the franchise's storied history, with mixed results.
Celtics Drafted Sixth Overall
1952: Bob Stauffer
1959: John Richter
1978: Larry Bird
1997: Ron Mercer
1998: Antoine Walker
Hitting on two of five isn't great, but when you see that one of those players was Larry Bird (who Red Auberbach drafted a year before he was eligible), it more than balances out those other misses.
As for other players drafted sixth overall, here are some of the bigger names selected with the pick:
2012: Damian Lillard, Portland
2008: Danillo Gallinari, New York
2006: Brandon Roy, Minnesota
2001: Shane Battier, Memphis
1999: Wally Szczerbiak, Minnesota
1998: Robert Traylor, Dallas
1993: Calbert Chaney, Washington
1992: Tom Gugliotta, Washington
1987: Kenny Smith, Sacramento
1960: Lenny Wilkens, St. Louis
Listen to Keefer Madness:

- Kevin Durant Will Reportedly Hold Free Agent Meeting With Celtics
- Danny Ainge On Toucher & Rich: Celtics 'Certainly Not Done' Making Moves After Trade-Less Draft

Linamar Corp. (LNR-T) posted a market-beating quarterly profit on Wednesday and the auto parts maker forecast continued growth as the auto sector recovers and demand from Asia and the United States picks up.
"Sales, earnings, content per vehicle, global market presence and booked business launches are all growing, poising Linamar for continued successful growth in the coming years," Chief Executive Linda Hasenfratz said.
Linamar, Canada's second biggest car parts maker after Magna International Inc. (MG-T), reported a 32-percent rise in net income to $19.2 million for the three months to end-December.
Earnings adjusted for unusual items nearly doubled to $20.2 million from $10.7 million before.
Adjusted earnings amounted to 31 cents a share, up from 17 cents a share in the fourth quarter of 2009.
That was above analysts' average estimate for earnings of 26 cents a share, according to ThomsonReuters I/B/E/S.
Revenue rose to $593.7 million from $451.9 million, driven by increased demand in the United States and Asia.

4 ways how SEO is expected to change in 2013
Over the last one year the search scene has changed to a large extend. The year 2012, has proven to be quite eventful due to the shifts in the SEO survival.
An enormous crackdown on spammy websites due to the EMD updates was just one of the scathing steps. Google algorithm updates occur more than 100 times a year, to remove low quality websites from the topmost position in search engine results.
Google is never going to end the persistent run to make search engine results more appropriate.
Search engine optimization is now, not as simple as it was two years down the line. Over the years, it has turned quite challenging, to attain high search engine ranking.
Well, no one is aware about the exact updates that are to occur in the coming year. But here is a list of Google updates that are expected to occur in 2013.
Author Rank
In 2013 Author Rank is going to be the main search factor.
Google is going to assign an Author rank to each blogger depending on a number of parameters for example domain expertise, niche authority etc. The higher the author score of a blogger the more chances of his content ranking high in the search engines.
Also, author's content will be linked to his Google+ account, to draw Google+ in the SEO calculations.
Disavow Tool
The Disavow link was creates to scrutinize a website's backlink structure. Google is expected to use this tool in 2012 to create a new algorithm utilizing the links that have already been submitted. This tool will most probably be uses to enhance reporting of spammy websites and low quality backlinks.
Presence of Social media
Search engine optimization is strongly influenced by social media networks currently. In the year 2013 it is going to be compulsory, to develop an effective social presence, for the success of an online business. Sharing engaging content on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest etc. will be of supreme importance. Social media is going to play a crucial role in deciding the fate of an online website in the coming year.
A successful social presence is evidence that the readers find the content of the website useful.
Digital marketing
2013 is going to be a big year for digital marketing. It will eventually involve the entire band of online marketing from content creation, to pay per click, to social media utilization. This is definitely going to give a boost because of Google updates, and more brands will try their luck in the field of digital marketing.
Well, we can take one thing for granted that these updates will keep search results relevant, honest and useful for the searchers.
So are you up for the new Google updates in 2013?
