Circuit Court Judge Timothy J. McCrone sentenced Bulmer to life with all by 30 years suspended for the killing of Dennis Lane, according to a release.
- Ellicott City man pleads guilty in stabbing death of Howard County blogger
- New details in case of murdered Ellicott City man (Charging documents)
- Daughter, boyfriend charged in Ellicott City man's murder
- Community to say goodbye to Dennis Lane
Lane was stabbed to death on May 10, 2013. Bulmer admitted to killing Lane on Feb. 21, 2014.
He told investigators that his then-14-year-old girlfriend Morgan Lane Arnold told him to do it. The two were planning to run away to California together. After the stabbing, both Bulmer and Arnold were found in a nearby room, sitting together, covered in blood.

A new career?
By dragonfly on Aug 25, 2007
My wife has no one to blame but herself for this time waster. She sent me a link to StripGenerator, which appears to be a Flash based comic strip tool and associated blog service, for those who want to easily post the comic strips they create to a blog. I'm happy with this blog service, and can't imagine being able to use a comic strip to make my esoteric points. :-) Nonetheless, I might explore a new career as a comic artist. Here is a first attempt.

President-Rector's Welcome
As I write this letter at the beginning of August, 2014, I am conscious that fifty years ago this month I entered the college seminary in Albany, New York. It was the beginning of nine years of formation that were stimulating, challenging and some days frustrating or puzzling. The seminary journey ended, after four final years here at St. Mary's Seminary, with ordination to the priesthood and the beginning of now over forty years of enriching, grace-filled ministry as a priest in seminary ministry and a member of the Society of St. Sulpice.
I welcome you to the website of St. Mary's Seminary and University. We hope that here you can learn about the exciting, faith-filled programs in the seminary whose mission for over two hundred and twenty years has been the preparation of men for diocesan priestly ministry. Also, on this website is a description of the programs and resources of the Ecumenical Institute of Theology which provides graduate level theological education for women and men in an ecumenical environment.
In addition, you will find a section of the website devoted to the ministry of Continuing Education and Formation. In the programs listed there we hope, as St. Paul's says, "to rekindle the Spirit" in those ordained.
I recall when I first arrived at St. Mary's in August of 1968. I drove down the curving main drive in my Volkswagen beetle. As I came out of the final bend I saw the magnificent building and thought, "My God, the bishop has sent me to the palace of Versailles!" As I stopped in the front of the building I read the inscription over the front doors, "Go, Teach all nations." I was still overcome by the size and magnificence of the building and its setting. Forty-six years later, I still gaze at that same inscription. Now, however, I am deeply moved by the people and experiences I have had at St. Mary's that have prepared me and so many others to be disciples of the Lord and priests of Jesus Christ who go forth to preach and teach and lead God's People.
I welcome you to St. Mary's and this new website either as a first time inquirer about us or as an alumnus or friend. May your visit here lift your mind and your spirit to give praise to Jesus who sent forth his disciples. May you too in your life "Go" always in the way of the Lord.

A replica Back to the Future DeLorean pulled up to the Salt Lake Comic Con FanX 2014 to raise awareness of Parkinson's disease and money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. Oliver and Terry Holler held a panel discussion about their adventures in the DeLorean on April 17, 2014 the first day of FanX.
The couple had been obsessed with Back to the Future even before they were together. After they got married, everyone knew about their obsession, even the pastor of their church, who suggested that they go look at a DeLorean for sale nearby. That Delorean was too expensive and not the right color, but it planted a seed.
"Dreams are nice,' says Oliver Holler, "but reality and life get in the way."
Oliver was diagnosed with cancer and given six months to live. The couple still had no money, and Oliver prepared for the inevitable. Then a credit card approval came in the mail. They maxed out the card and bought a DeLorean.
Using a VHS tape for reference, Oliver worked to make the DeLorean as authentic as possible. They scoured junkyards for pieces and parts that would look like what was in the movie. With no budget, no insurance and medical bills rolling in, the junkyard provided an inexpensive place to find the materials.
After 3 and a half months and $511.53, the Hollers had an authentic time machine.
The DeLorean has travelled throughout the United States, and the Hollers have met all sorts of celebrities including the cast of Back to the Future. They even worked on commercials with Christopher Lloyd in Argentina.
All donations made to the couple benefit the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research through Team Fox. To date, they have raised more than $150,000.

A young man wearing a red mask and a dark sweatshirt stole a bank bag from a customer attempting to make a deposit at a drive-through window Friday afternoon.
The strong-arm robbery was reported shortly after 1 p.m. at U.S. Bank's Cascade Park branch, 11621 S.E. Mill Plain Blvd. The bank itself was not robbed.
According to emergency radio traffic, the customer was at the drive-through window attempting to make a transaction using a cash bag when she was approached by the robber, who stole the bag.
The robber fled in a vehicle described as an older blue Subaru occupied by three young men. It was last seen driving eastbound on McGillivray Boulevard.
The robber was described as a Hispanic male, about 20 years old, wearing a red mask and a black hooded sweatshirt.
No injuries were reported.

We're in a car, heading to a fund-raiser for a group called the EcoMom Alliance, and if Robin Wright Penn were a typical environmentally conscious star, the car would be a Prius and she'd be extolling the virtues of composting. Instead, we are barreling through the streets of San Francisco in an old black Land Rover that looks as though it might get 14 miles per gallon, tops. "It's a piece of shit," she says. "I'm waiting for it to die." An American Spirit cigarette dangling from her lips, she's the first to acknowledge her carbon-based crimes. "It's blasphemy," she says, laughing, and cringes in mock shame. "Can you believe I'm going to EcoMoms like this?"
It's not that Wright Penn doesn't support the group's goals of sustainable living and women's empowerment—she is, after all, a spokesperson, and yes, she does compost. It's enviro-dogmatism she can't stand. "I do believe in it," she says of the green lifestyle. "But it doesn't mean it's my only religion. You take pieces of various religions; you reject what doesn't work for you."
That could well be Robin Wright Penn's life motto. After achieving fame early as Buttercup in the 1987 hit The Princess Bride and later as the ill-fated Jenny in the 1994 phenomenon Forrest Gump, Wright Penn zeroed in on the bits and pieces of the celebrity's existence that worked for her, rejecting the rest. She rebuffed studio offers for Born on the Fourth of July, Jurassic Park, The Firm and Batman Forever, opting instead for powerful performances in little-seen dramas such as The Playboys, Loved, She's So Lovely and White Oleander. She married Hollywood bad boy Sean Penn, then decamped with him to a town in northern California, where she cast herself as a full-time mother and played peek-a-boo with a curious public and with producers and directors eager to harness her talent.
But now, at 43—her teenagers looking ahead to college, her career clock ticking—she appears poised to break out of her cocoon of self-doubt. "The alarm went off," she says. "There's no limbo anymore. There's no time. I'm too old for this shit."
As if to prove her point, Wright Penn has had an unusually busy year onscreen. In April, she played a congressman's wife in the journalism thriller State of Play, opposite Russell Crowe and Ben Affleck, and she has a diverse group of movies slated for release this fall. She joins a cavalcade of stars in the ensemble film New York, I Love You, and she'll be featured alongside Jim Carrey in an animated version of A Christmas Carol, which reteamed her with Forrest Gump director Robert Zemeckis. She also stars in The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, as the seemingly docile wife of a much older man (Alan Arkin) who sees her life unravel when she moves with him to a retirement community.
By being in such demand, Wright Penn is clearly defying the usual Hollywood trajectory for over-40 women. When I ask if this is accidental or by design, her answer is laced with the self-criticism that she admits has sometimes crippled her in the past. "I think I'm a late bloomer," she says. "It took me this long not to be afraid. I think I've been a flaky procrastinator; I couldn't turn motivation into active drive." At this point Wright Penn is sitting in a San Francisco café, enjoying pre-fund-raiser panini and a glass of Champagne. Her face is bare of makeup, which somehow only highlights her astonishing good looks, and she seems radiant and relaxed in her tight faded jeans and Blauer black leather uniform jacket. The starspangled chevron on her sleeve reads "Uncompromising Performance."

What is the difference between "receivership" and "termination"?
Receivership can occur when an association fails to fill vacancies in sufficient numbers to constitute a quorum. Any unit owner may apply to the Circuit Court for appointment of a receiver to manage the condominium. The owner must send notice to all unit owners. The expenses for the receiver, including salary, court costs, and attorney's fees becomes a common expense. The Receiver assumes the authority of board.
Termination occurs when a "plan of termination" is approved by not less than 80% of the unit owners and is recorded with the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the county where it is located. An alternate method for termination can occur if cost to repair is more than "fair market value", or when it is impossible to reconstruct because of current zoning or land use changes, in which case only a majority is required.
In recent years, investment groups holding a super majority in an association exercise their voting power to cancel individual property ownership rights by termination, and can convert associations into rental complexes controlled by a non-owner or designated trustee.
Individual unit owners under the plan are converted into "beneficiaries," and entitled to a stake in the rental project. A designated trustee would then obtain an independent appraisal of the "fair market value" of all the property's units.
Want to learn more about this and other community association questions?
Next Wednesday December 19, 2012 10am-12pm we will be conducting our "Still Stumped" class.
We will be answering 46 frequently asked questions on material alterations, adult communities, resignations, amending documents, and much more.

Jon Jones is one of the best fighters on the planet. After defeating Glover Teixeira this past Saturday, people are beginning to wonder if there is anyone left in the light heavyweight division who can take away his title. Enter Daniel Cormier. The former Olympian first needs to get by Dan Henderson in May, but "DC" offered up his assessment on how he plans to take the belt from the champion:
"I think what I have to do is impose my will on him. I have to press him against the cage and bully him. But I have to tell Jones that I'm a bigger man than him and put some doubt in him."
Sounds great in theory, but many have had trouble doing it to the Jackson MMA product. Don't tell Cormier that, he believes the secret to his success is how hard he works:
"I train harder than him with someone named (UFC heavyweight champion) Cain Velasquez. I have to go and fight into that style."
Jones also has another opponent on deck in Alexander Gustafsson before the Cormier dual can even be considered. The first time Jones and the Swede met, it was a war. Jones won a unanimous decision in what might have been his toughest fight to date. Dana White and company have not yet set a date here however, likely waiting to see how well Jones heals and if a venue in Europe will be able to host.

Hello to all,

The jazz sextet, the best of the best jazz players in the Bay Area, start around 11AM and go until about 2PM. If you want to swing by and sing a tune or sit in, I enclosed the song list and the players. Click on the attached file and check it out. Every year we swoon, "Wow, What a blast. How could this ever get any better?" Every year, it always does! St. Martin De Porres is located on Potrero Ave. between 15th & 16th St. See you there!

Sarah Gillooly
Congratulations to LGBT activist Sarah Gillooly, who has worked for PROMO and Planned Parenthood, for running a great campaign in the 24th District for the Missouri House.

Hamburger Marys serves up hate-free chicken sandwich
The Hamburger Marys restaurant franchise is adding a new hate-free Southern-style chicken sandwich to their menu.
Their press release states: Marys is adding her voice to the increasing number of campaigns to counter Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathys controversial public stance against marriage equality by offering a southern-style chicken sandwich while advocating diversity.
Jeff Edmondson, general manager of the Kansas City Hamburger Marys, reports that he and owner Eric Christensen had been thinking of creating their own version of the sandwich at the same time it was being planned by the corporate Hamburger Marys.
Many people thought of it at the same time, and I was thinking about something along the same lines, Edmondson said. We did a little bit of personalization, but we wanted to mimic it as much as possible.
The press release describes the new sandwich: It starts with a fresh chicken breast, marinated and battered with Marys secret recipe flour and spice mixture. Its then deep-fried and served with dill pickles on a bakery fresh bun, much like the Chick-fil-A sandwich is.
In addition to the other charity events held weekly at the Kansas City restaurant, this new chicken sandwich will also help support a local organization.
Each store will give a percentage of sales to whatever charity they wish, Edmondson said. The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) is where we will make our donation.
Edmondson said they will call the sandwich the Marys Southern style chicken sandwich, on the menu.
AIDS Bicycle Cruise
The 8th annual AIDS Bicycle Cruise will be held Sept. 16. The ride has been renamed (from AIDS Bicycle Challenge), but the acronym of ABC stays comfortably the same! The new ride is less competitive and more fun in the spirit of raising money for those living with HIV/AIDS in the Kansas City community.
The ride will begin and end in Westport, with registration at 11 a.m. and the ride at noon that day. Registration is $30. The ABC website describes the new cruise like this: Join the fun on ANY bike! Ride as much, or as little, of the 15-mile, ribbon-shaped route as you want. Several unique stops at AIDS service organizations and well-known KC entertainment areas provide food, fun and refreshments along the way! Stay for the Finish Line Raffle & Post Ride Party! The party is included for those involved in ABC and $20 for all others.
Organizers report that they have a great new bicycling jersey that a rider can earn by either registering and raising $275 in donations or by registering for a flat fee of $295. To register or for more information, visit www.aidsbicyclechallenge.org.
PrideFloat is moving to June
Jeff Brown of PrideFloat reports that the July PrideFloat was a great success, with more than 400 people participating and 15 states represented. They have announced that they are moving the annual PrideFloat date to the second weekend after Memorial Day, beginning next year. That will be June 6-10, 2013. Brown reports that the group felt the weather would be less hot in June than July and that it would allow them more flexibility in the number of people who can attend. The fee is $40 per person, which includes five nights and six days of camping, a free T-shirt, free wristband, free beer bust and your choice of a river vehicle canoe, raft or kayak. Registration will be March 1-May 20, 2013. For more information, visit www.Pridefloat.org.
Douglas County AIDS Project
DCAP reports that after a two-year hiatus, the group is bringing back AIDS Walk, which raises money and awareness for those living with HIV/AIDS. It is a resource for those in Lawrence and Douglas County, as well as Jefferson and Franklin Counties. DCAP AIDS Walk will be held Sept. 29. The theme this year is Step Up! To End AIDS.
Heres their explanation for how it works: Each walker solicits donations for DCAP before the event. With a minimum donation of $25, the walkers receive a brunch at Macelis. The real fundraising takes place when participants solicit donations from their friends, family, and co-workers. The fundraising really heats up when teams and individual walkers compete to raise the highest amounts in their categories. Prizes are donated by community businesses for those individuals and teams who raise the most funds for DCAP.
To sign up your team, visit www.razoo.com/team/Dcap-Aids-Walk-2012 and click on Fundraise on the right side of the page. Make sure it says DOUGLAS COUNTY AIDS PROJECT INC. For more information, visit www.douglascountyaidsproject.org

YPSILANTI, Mich — Authorities have filed attempted murder charges against a 19-year-old Washtenaw County man for his role in a gang fight that left a 17-year-old boy dead.
Keandre Duff was arraigned Wednesday, and Magistrate Elisha Fink set his bond at $70,000. Fink also ordered that Duff get a court-appointed lawyer.
The Ypsilanti Township man also is charged with carrying a concealed weapon and possessing a firearm during a felony. He told the magistrate Wednesday that he's on probation for marijuana possession and faces marijuana delivery and gun-buying charges.
A probable cause hearing is set July 10.
So far, no one's charged in the fatal shooting early Saturday of Keon Washington of Ypsilanti.
Ypsilanti police tell The Ann Arbor News (http://bit.ly/1pKhZKr ) that they released a 17-year-old boy picked up earlier as a suspect.

If the past four days of "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon" are any indication of what the show will continue to be like, late-night talk show host Jimmy Fallon is off to a lovely start replacing former talk show legend Jay Leno.
Old school hip-hop heads got to relive their favorite '80s and '90s dances courtesy of Mr. "Summertime" Himself: rapper/actor Will Smith. While Luke and 2 Live Crew fans may still be grumbling about why twerking was way at the end of the dance-off instead of at the beginning, going down memory lane through choreography was still fun to watch. And "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" fans already know Will Smith loves to dance so this was right up his alley. Click here to see the video showing everything from pop locking to the Running Man to the Dougie.
And for the pessimists who continue to believe Jada Pinkett-Smith and Will Smith are no longer married just because of a missing wedding ring, catch how many times he gushes over his wife during the interview after the dance-off.
Chicagoans pumped their chests out a little bit harder watching the ragtime rendition of R. Kelly's "Ignition (Remix)." Click here to see the hilarious, charismatic ragtime video, and click here to see the Pied Piper's original video.
And while charades fans are still trying to figure out how Tim McGraw and Bradley Cooper couldn't figure out Fallon's dead-on demonstration of the 1993 film "Cool Runnings," others were just amused by Fallon's consistent ability to still look stylish in a suit but wiggle around the floor reenacting Jamaican bobsledding.
Speaking of outfits, Will Ferrell's Olympics tuxedo outfit has taken the comedic award to another level. What's better is Ferrell has an amusing habit of acting like he's not in on the joke even if he does look like a penguin.
On the first night "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon" came on (also nicknamed "Fallon Tonight"), many celebrities showed up to congratulate him with a fake $100 bet skit. Some of the "losers" included Robert De Niro, Tina Fey, Joe "Broadway Joe" Namath, Mariah Carey, Tracy Morgan, Joan Rivers, Kim Kardashian, Seth Rogen, Lindsey Lohan, Sarah Jessica Parker, Mike Tyson, Lady Gaga and Stephen Colbert. Click here to see the video.
Now with all of those pats on the back (and $100 in coins), who could've topped that? None other than FLOTUS Michelle Obama, who stopped by the show on Thurs., Feb. 20, to do an "Ew!" TV skit with Fallon and comedian Ferrell. Click here to see the video. It wouldn't be the FLOTUS if she didn't find a way to incorporate the Let's Move program into the skit, but Fallon is no stranger to it considering he's previously helped her promote it through a Tug of War game last season and "The Evolution of Mom Dancing." Click here to see the latter video.
FLOTUS stuck around for an interview talking about everything from why 15-year-old Malia Obama and 12-year-old Sasha Obama try to ditch their parents, how FLOTUS is handling Malia getting ready for driver's ed, and Fallon quizzes FLOTUS on everything from her first dance to the first meal she ever cooked.
There are many late-night talk shows that are entertaining and can get the celebs, but Fallon has proven that he is still in touch with that Generation X audience that's grown to love his show. And The Roots have his back, too.
WGN's "Arsenio" is another late-night talk show that can easily blend hip-hop and Hollywood.
And, in the fall of this year, TV viewers will look forward to what the new talk show "The Real" will bring viewers, with hosts Grammy-nominated singer Tamar Braxton, actress Tamera Mowry-Housley, comedian Loni Love, fashionista Jeannie Mai and "The Cheetah Girls" star Adrienne Bailon" to add even more diversity to daytime talk shows. Don't worry. "Ellen" and "The Queen Latifah Show" are still bringing the funk, funny and soul on their shows, too. But there will finally be a group of women who knew what twerking was before pop-country artist Miley Cyrus came along.
Both late-night talk shows and daytime talk shows are blending an interesting mix of diversity, youth, legends, politics, health, comedy and fun. So who are your favorite daytime hosts and late-night hosts in 2014?

Character history
3D Universe
In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, he stars in the popular MeTV series Stunt Double. He appears in a radio advertisement on Wave 103 in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and on MeTV News on the GTA Vice City Stories website for the advocacy group Consider Our Kids Everyday. Cranley warns against the use of drugs and admits to having had problems with drugs in the past. He was arrested by the VCPD, although he was later released, claiming it was a stunt double committing the crimes. At the end of the advertisement he jumps, unsecured, off a skyscraper.
HD Universe
In GTA V, it is detailed that he is a former Vinewood actor and stuntman appearing in the 1985 film 18 Wheeler Deathrace. In his gubernatorial campaign, Cranley claims to hate immigrants and the crippled and says that he cannot stand unions, cops and old ladies. Unlike his opponent Sue Murry, Cranley believes that people should help themselves instead of looking for a helping hand from the government. According to a Los Santos newspaper seen in Murry's rivaling ad, he plans to abolish taxes by selling unneeded parkland and cutting school budgets by 98%.
- Three actors, Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sonny Bono have been elected as Republicans to high public office in California. The former two were Governors.
- The high-contrast red and blue image of Cranley seen in the preview, captioned "Dick", is a parody of the Barack Obama "Hope" poster.

Leicester Square Theatre, London WC2
You have got to have a particular brand of chutzpah to get your revenge on someone by falsely accusing them of antisemitism and then celebrating the fact by dancing the horah while singing Hava Nagilah - on stage - in front of people, some of them gentiles.
This is one of the outrageous highlights of Joan Rivers's autobiographical play. Though 'play' is not quite the right word. More accurately, this show, written by Rivers and comedy writing duo Douglas Bernstein and Denis Markell, is a cleverly constructed vehicle which allows its star to do a little acting and a lot of talking.
The setting is a grubby television network's dressing room where Rivers is getting ready to present one of the red-carpet awards shows that revived her TV career.
To her left is her incompetent assistant (Nathan Osgood), to her right is her incompetent Russian make-up artist (Emily Kosloski), and running through the middle is a creaky plot about a dress not arriving on time and a scary new TV executive, the only species on this planet Rivers fears, mainly for their ruthless ageism.
At 75, Rivers belies her age. Not because she looks so young - she actually doesn't look any age at all, so tight is the skin on her face - but because of her energy.
It is no surprise that this queen of stand-up is at her funniest when she's doing what she does best - rudely confiding in her audience about her life and career that includes a lesbian kiss with Barbra Streisand, her big break on the Bill Cosby show and a movingly told account of her husband's suicide.
Director Sean Foley knows a thing or two about breaking through the fourth wall and with the asides to her fellow performers, much fun is had at the expense of theatrical convention. And at its best this show flies not just because of its comedy, but because of its honesty too. (Tel: 0844 847 24 75)

During a pop-up breakfast event at Manhattan's Chelsea Market on February 19, single-serve espresso giant Nespresso unveiled and demonstrated its latest product extension: the VertuoLine system. The new machines and associated coffee capsules expand Nespresso's capabilities into the large-cup coffee segment.
Nespresso's machines have focused on producing espresso through a proprietary extraction system. And though the machines can be programmed to pour small (ristretto) regular or "long" (Lungo) esspressos--with most the brand's various coffees specifically designed to a specific size pour--the ideal serving sizes were still no larger than four ounces. For Americans raised on Ventes and Grandes (or even a cup of diner joe), a two- or four-ounce cup of coffee might not always cut it.
In contrast, most of Nespresso's at-home competitors, like Keurig, are largely designed to focus on brewed or drip large-cup coffees, and not espresso.
In response to this perceived crossover "vacuum," Nespresso's VertuoLine series is designed to provide options for both espressos and large-cup (8 oz) coffees. Featuring a new technology Nespresso calls Centrifusion which maximizes contact between the water and the coffee, the machine also offers an "intelligent" extraction system that reads barcodes on the coffee capsules to brew each blend in the collection at what Nespresso has identified as its most optimal size and style. Because each coffee expression is built with a certain intensity and concentration, a Nespresso Grand Cru designed as an ristretto or espresso may not taste as good in a lungo pour. Bar codes on the capsules (which are dome-shaped rather than the conical shape of the existing capsules, to avoid confusion) are identified by the machine and the "correct" pour (espresso verus large cup coffee.
"Despite a number of in-home offerings in the U.S., there is no system that delivers the quality and taste for which Nespresso is known, but in a large-cup offering," said Nespresso USA president Frederic Levy, who echoed the company's marketing in calling it a coffee "revolution". "We see this as an incredible opportunity to pioneer an entirely new segment."
During the tasting and breakfast in NYC, celebrity chef Marc Forgione (American Cut Steakhouses) was on hand to demonstrate and discuss the machine's versatility.
For the initial launch, VertuoLine offers a range of four espresso blends and eight large-cup coffees. One perk of using the Nespresso technology is that even the 8-oz pour of "regular" coffee is finished off with a foamy head or "crema," like a coffeehouse coffee. The Aeroccino Plus milk foamer, which can be purchased as a package with the VertuoLine machine, also allows users to add as much or as little foamed milk (hot or cold) as they like to any espresso or large-cup pour.
To help promote the new machine and coffee line, the company is setting up a 108-day, 17-city tour of pop-ups around the country. The boutique pop-ups will feature something called a Nespresso Dome (we've got no idea). Cities on the tour include New York City, Washington D.C., Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Newport Beach, Minneapolis, Scottsdale, Denver, Austin, Houston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, Atlanta and Miami. Tasting venues will be set up at malls and transportation hubs, like Union Station in D.C. and Grand Central Terminal in New York City.
The Nespresso VertuoLine machine is available in three colors (red, black and chrome) and retails for about $300 ($350 when bundled with the Aeroccino Plus milk frother). It will be available for sale at Nespresso Flagship boutique stores starting March 1st, at Sur La Table, Williams-Sonoma, Bloomingdale's and Macy's beginning February 20th, through other retailers starting April 1st, and online at www.nespresso.com on February 20th.

Great work shirt!...
By: dcamos78
These are great shirts for work. They are comfortable, true to size, and really are stain resistant. I've got three, and the only one that has held a stain is from epoxy, which I knew wouldn't come out either way. I would have given 5 stars, but in my opinion the sleeves could be a bit larger (around). I wear big/tall sizes and have bigger than average biceps, and the sleeves can be a little restricting at times. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase more Dickies work shirts in the future. Great product at a reasonable price.

New Zealand Culture Clash I
Program InformationSeries: A Moment in Time
Duration: 00:03:45
Year Produced: 2009
Inevitably the ever-expanding European colonial enterprise discovered Zeelandia Nova, but when Dutch arrived in New Zealand in 1642 they found a well established culture already there.
A Moment in Time is a brief, exciting and compelling journey into the past. Created to excite and enlighten the public about the past, its relevance to the present and its impact on the future, A Moment In Time is a captivating historical narrative that is currently broadcast worldwide.For more information visit: http://amomentintime.com
Lead: Inevitably the ever-expanding European colonial enterprise discovered Zeelandia Nova, but when Dutch arrived in New Zealand in 1642 they found a well established culture already there.
Intro: A Moment In Time with Dan Roberts.
Content: New Zealand, rugged, rich, wildly beautiful, hidden behind a vast oceanic barrier, was the final large land mass colonized by the human race. It is estimated that not until about AD 800 did Polynesian explorers, probably manning large capacity outrigger canoes, find their way to the northern of New Zealand's two major islands, so remote that it is 1000 miles southeast from the closest part of Australia. Their arrival was the culmination of one of humanity's greatest colonial expansions. Out from the East Asian land mass into the southern Pacific archipelago these Austronesian-speaking colonists exploded. Indonesia, New Guinea, Tonga, Fiji, Rarotonga, and Tahiti were prosperous outposts of this eastern expansion 2000 years before the Vikings ranged west to North America. Finally, wheeling southwest they came to New Zealand.
By 1200 there were settlements on both major islands, constituting a population of many tribal and kin groupings. The Maori, as they came to be known, cultivated taro, flax, sweet potatoes and probably hunted to extinction large flightless birds, the most prominent of which was the huge, guileless moa, which until then had not had a predator. The Maori continued the Polynesian military tradition with tribal disputes settled through diplomacy, gift giving and warfare; this last very bitter and often culminating in ritualistic cannibalism. In December 1642 Dutch explorer Abel Tasman sailed into a large bay at the top of the southern Island. His arrival set the stage for a classic clash of culture. Next time: Maori versus the invader.
The producer of A Moment In Time is Steve Clark. At the University of Richmond, this is Dan Roberts.

The world today is facing a mounting crisis and in recent years we have experienced a combination of a global financial crisis, a food crisis, volatile oil prices, accelerating ecosystem degradation and an increasing number of climate-induced extreme weather events. These multiple and inter-related crises call into question the ability of a growing human population to live peacefully and sustainably on this planet, and demand the urgent attention governments and citizens around the world. From its humble origins stemming from the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, climate change and global warming have today, come to the fore as key sustainable development issues. Governments world over are developing, evolving and implementing climate and energy policies and regulations that seek to (i) build adaptive capacity against the impacts of climate change, and (ii) arrest the release and growth of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the atmosphere to globally agreed 'safe' levels. This, in short can be referred to as transitioning towards a green-economy. Facing regulatory, financial, operational and reputational risks arising from global warming, businesses and non-profit organizations are responding to stakeholder pressures and the positive 'triple-bottom-line' implications by taking the lead role in de-carbonising or 'greening' their organizational operations thereby minimizing their contribution towards global warming.

Anthony Hopkins is the Alabama preacher who was accused of murdering his wife, putting her body in a freezer and leaving it there for almost 4-years. He has been found guilty in what became known as the freezer murder trial. You can see his photo and a video report below.
In a sensation murder trial out of Mobile, Alabama, Anthony Hopkins, a traveling pastor, has been found guilty on all counts against him in the freezer murder trial.
Hopkins, 39-years-old, had admitting to burying and then digging up his wife before putting her body in a freezer in their home, allegedly to 'preserve the evidence' for when he might decide to report her missing. Forensic experts estimate she died in December 2004, shortly after giving birth to the couple's youngest child. The cause of death was listed as 'homicidal violence'. She wasn't ever reported missing and was only found when her 19-year-old went to the police and led them to her mother's body in the freezer.
The 19-year-old daughter also told police that her step-father had been molesting her since she was 11-years-old and that she had given birth to his baby. Her mother, Arletha Hopkins would have been 36-years-old when she died.
Hopkins claimed that he came home and found his wife already dead on the floor of their Rylands Street home. He said that he panicked and had his step-daughter help him bury her in a shed behind a church in Jackson, Alabama. He later went and dug her body up and put it in a freezer because he 'didn't want her stinking'. During his testimony, he seemed to imply that his step-daughter might have killed her, stating she didn't show any emotion when she saw him attempting to give Arletha CPR.
He admitted to taking Arletha's clothes off and wrapping her in a bed sheet and soliciting his step-daughter's help in burying her. He also admitted that he had sexual relations with his step-daughter, but denied he had raped her. He claimed his step-daughter initiated sex with him and that he gave into the temptation.
Hopkins claimed that he didn't come forward about finding his wife dead because he was afraid he'd go to jail since she had died in his house. He was arrested on July 28, 2008 while he was preaching at Inspirational Tabernacle Church of God in Christ in Jackson, Alabama.
Anthony Hopkins has been found guilty in the freezer murder trial. He was found guilty on all counts including murder, rape, sodomy, sex abuse and incest. He is scheduled for sentencing on May 6, 2010 at 9 am.

Privacy and Confidentiality Policy
Adopted September 26, 2008
|SC Code of Laws, Section 60-4-10 states that "confidential records may not be disclosed except to persons acting within the scope of their duties in the administration of the library or library system or persons authorized by the library patron to inspect his records, or in accordance with proper judicial order upon a finding that the disclosure of the records is necessary to protect public safety, to prosecute a crime, or upon showing of good cause before the presiding judge in a civil matter.
Privacy. In a library, the right to privacy is the right to open inquiry without having the subject of one's interest examined or scrutinized by others.
Confidentiality. Confidentiality exists when a library is in possession of personally identifiable information about users and keeps that information private on their behalf.
Personally identifiable information (PII) connects individuals to what they bought with their credit cards, what they checked out with their library cards, and what web sites they visited. The PII collected by the library includes name, address, email address, phone number,and library card number. Users have the right of access to their own PII.
Records of patron use of library resources, materials, or services protected under SC Statute 60-4-10 include circulation records, workstation logs, security videos, information sought or received, materials consulted or borrowed, database search records, interlibrary loan records, reference interviews, sign-up sheets, patron material complaint forms, emails, voicemail, correspondence about customers' library use.
Statistical data collected about library card registrants and their library use allows libraries to plan for its collections and services and to target its operation to specific community needs, and enables libraries to effectively report statistics on library use as required by federal, state, local, and private funding bodies.
In cases when library users leave the Library's site to visit another, users are encouraged to become familiar with the privacy statement of each site they visit. Third parties are not bound by library confidentiality statutes or other laws protecting the privacy of user records. For these reasons, neither the library nor the library user can be certain that confidentiality will be adequately protected. (www.ala.org/oif/policies/interpretations/privacyqanda)
Protecting user privacy and confidentiality has long been an integral part of the mission of libraries. Both the state of South Carolina and the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution provide guarantees of confidentiality and privacy. The library protects the privacy and confidentiality of children as well as adults.
The library does not disclose or distribute (unless authorized) users' names, postal addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, borrowers records, computer use records, or other personal information to outside parties unless required to do pursuant to subpoena, court order, or where otherwise required to do so by law. The library will clearly determine without reservation the issuance or enforcement of any such process, order or subpoena until such time as a proper showing of good cause has been made in a court or competent jurisdiction.
Library staff must be familiar with and abide by all other applicable guidelines for how to appropriately respond to requests for confidential information, whether from law enforcement or individuals.
Library staff will disclose information about or contained in a user's library account or circulation records to the user, and only the user, upon presentation of the user's library card or photo identification. This applies to library accounts for children, unless a parent or guardian has been authorized to view said records.
For a parent or guardian without authorization to view library accounts for children, the following legal ways to obtain information may be used:
♦ If calling for information on what your child has out, etc. have your child nearby to verify that his/her record can be accessed, or
♦ If using "My Account" ask your child for his/her pin number, or
♦ We can send a letter by U.S. post addressed to your child to provide the requested information, or
♦ If at the library, and if your child is present, your child can assert that it is ok to access requested information.

Osteoporosis is the most common underlying cause of fractures in the elderly, but it is not frequently diagnosed or treated, even among individuals who have already suffered a fracture. An estimated 10 million Americans now have osteoporosis, while another 34 million have low bone mass and are at risk for developing osteoporosis; 80 percent of them are women. Each year more than 1.5 million people suffer a bone fracture related to osteoporosis, with the most common breaks in the wrist, spine, and hip. Fractures can have devastating consequences. For example, hip fractures are associated with an increased risk of mortality, and nearly 1 in 5 hip fracture patients ends up in a nursing home within a year. Direct care for osteoporotic fractures costs $18 billion yearly.1
In 2003–2004, women aged 18 years and older were more likely than men to report having been told by a health professional that they have osteoporosis (10.0 versus 1.7 percent, respectively). The rate of osteoporosis among women varied significantly with race and ethnicity. Non-Hispanic White women were most likely to have osteoporosis (12.6 percent), compared to 3.2 percent of non-Hispanic Black women and 3.5 percent of Hispanic women.
In 2005 there were 215,000 hospital discharges due to hip fractures among women aged 18 and older, a rate of 18.8 per 10,000 women. Rates of hospital discharges due to hip fractures varied by age. Women aged 75 and older had 149.4 discharges per 10,000 women, compared to 29.6 discharges per 10,000 women aged 65–74 years. Osteoporosis may be prevented and treated by getting the recommended amounts of calcium, vitamin D, and regular weight-bearing physical activity (i.e. walking), and by taking prescription medication when appropriate. Bone density tests are recommended for women over 65 years and for any man or woman who suffers a fracture after age 50. Treatment for osteoporosis has been shown to reduce the risk of subsequent fractures by 30–65 percent.ibid

Tenmou Gathers and Trains Arab and European Angel Investors in Bahrain
Tenmou, Bahrain's first business angels company, is quickly establishing itself as a leading player in Bahrain's entrepreneurship scene, as it works to train both startups and angel investors on best practices, most recently at its second MENA Angel Investor Forum.
The event, launched in association with Punchline Media, built on the success of the inaugural event, which attracted more than 150 investors from across the region and Europe earlier this year. The event was supported by Mumtalakat, Bahrain's sovereign wealth fund; and Tamkeen, which is responsible for Bahrain's human capital and private sector enterprise development.
Highlighting the lack of coordination, collaboration, and knowledge sharing amongst the region's angel investors, Hasan Haider, CEO of Tenmou, explains: "The idea behind the first forum was to bring together all the accelerators and angel networks in the region under one roof—which had never been done before."
"The second forum is now trying to fill a gap in terms of the educational aspect of best practices for both angel investors and entrepreneurs seeking investment."
The Startups
For current and aspiring entrepreneurs, the forum covered key topics such as Growth Strategies, Types of Investment and Deal Readiness, Importance of People, and Presenting your Idea.
Some sound advice—particularly for those exploring the tech space—included: don't underestimate your startup's agility and strengths compared with industry giants.
Large organizations encounter bureaucratic challenges and are traditionally slower at getting things done. Startups on the other hand, have a lot more flexibility and dexterity to move more quickly and efficiently.
This provides entrepreneurs with a golden opportunity for an exit strategy, if large organizations take note. Facebook's $ 1 billion acquisition of the 13-employee, 2-year old company, Instagram, immediately comes to mind.
Another opportunity lies in Arabic content, as only 3% of online content is in Arabic. Regional tech entrepreneurs have an opportunity to Arabize or create synergistic ventures in the tech space; poising themselves for quick and easy exits. A classic example in that space is Yahoo's 2009 acquisition of Maktoob.
However, as Hasan tells me, "Even if you have the best business plan in the world, if you don't know how to talk about it, you won't get started."
One of the key missing components in the entrepreneurship education scene in the region is how to approach and pitch investors. Which is why the Forum dedicated a full-day to a Pitch Coaching workshop to help entrepreneurs hone their elevator pitch and develop more effective investor-ready presentations.
Entrepreneurs also had the opportunity to put those skills into practice during a full day of live pitches, culminating in a keynote by Angel's Den CEO and Founder Bill Morrow.
Pitches were made by:
1. uTrack - Ali Mahmood, Hasan Al Doy
2. Sketchbook Magazine - Wafa Al Obaidat
3. Arteleus - Nawaf Saeed
4. Reality Animation Studios - Mansoor Toorani, Redha Habib
5. Print.bh - Yazin Alirhayim
6. Exa.io - Mohammed Sheikhaldeen
7. Nans and Duha Centre for Communication and Social Guidance - Assya Bin Mahfood
8. Stride IT Consultancy - Bader Kamal
The Investors
It's not just the startups that need training- potential angel investors were also able to learn and share best practices when investing in startup businesses. Investors from the MENA region and Europe were able to discuss the art of early and seed stage investment in panels like Early Stage Business Valuation, Due Diligence, and Exit Strategies.
"Two years ago when we started Tenmou, there was very little awareness on angel investing in the region— both on the investor and startup side. As we have seen the volume of startups and angel investors steadily increase, it's important to share global best practices, as well as what works here in the Arab region," Hasan explains.
Since 2011, Tenmou has invested a total of BD 300,000 (approximately US$ 796,000) in seed funding in 12 companies.
The third MENA Angel Investors Forum, which is scheduled for the second quarter of 2013, will aim to attract a more regionally diverse base of investors and entrepreneurs to facilitate and strengthen cross-border collaborations and deal flows.
Angels and entrepreneurs can stay updated by registering on Tenmou's mailing list.

MTSO hosts eco-theology scholar
Hitzhusen talk highlights Theological Libraries Month
Methodist Theological School in Ohio celebrates Theological Libraries Month by welcoming eco-theology scholar Gregory Hitzhusen, who will speak on the topic "Resources for Eco-Theology." The free event will be held at 11:30 a.m. Oct. 27 in Gault Hall on the MTSO campus, 3081 Columbus Pike in Delaware.
Hitzhusen is a lecturer at the Ohio State University, teaching in the School of Environment and Natural Resources, within the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. He holds a doctorate in natural resource policy from Cornell University and a Master of Divinity degree from Yale Divinity School.
Paul Burnam, director of the Dickhaut Library at MTSO, said Hitzhusen's expertise aligns with ecological specializations the school now offers within its Master of Divinity and Master of Arts in Practical Theology programs.
"We're looking forward to Dr. Hitzhusen's wisdom on the importance of environmental ethics to these two new specializations and his thoughts on the appropriate resources our library offers," Burnam said. Hitzhusen's presentation is funded through a grant by the American Theological Library Association.
Methodist Theological School in Ohio prepares transformational leaders of many faith traditions for service to the church and the world. MTSO offers master's degrees in divinity, counseling ministries, theological studies and practical theology, as well as a Doctor of Ministry degree. For more information, visit www.mtso.edu.

Unfortunately, many different types of prescription medications are being overly prescribed to American patients. Prescription drug abuse has become one of the leading forms of drug addiction in the nation, and narcotic drugs are usually the source of the trouble. Nowadays, medical problems can be diagnosed, and most diagnoses come with a prescription signed and ready. Adderall, for example, is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs in the medical world today; it is even prescribed to many patients suffering from sleeping disorders like Narcolepsy.
What is Adderall and how does it Work?
Adderall is the generic name for a prescription psychostimulant narcotic drug consisting of the amphetamine salts dextroamphetamine saccharide, dextroamphetamine sulfate,
racemic amphetamine aspartate monohydrate, and racemic amphetamine sulfate. The brand-name prescription medication is owned and manufactured by Shire US, Inc., but there are several other manufacturing companies that produce generic version of the medication.
Adderall and Narcolepsy go hand-in-hand. This medication is meant to increase the levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain; it also inhibits the reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine in the body. Adderall works like many other stimulant drugs, it manipulates the mesolimbic reward pathway, located in the brain. The medication is available by prescription medication only, and is available in two forms- Instant Release, IR, and Extended Release, XR. The purpose of the medication is to increase the user's levels of energy, productivity, focus, alertness, and has even been used to increase sexual desire.
Using Adderall to Treat Narcolepsy and Other Medical Problems
In most cases, the stimulant prescription medication Adderall is used to treat patients with hyperactivity disorders such as Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The drug is also licensed and commonly prescribed to many patients with Narcolepsy.
Although Adderall is a stimulant medication, it has the opposite effect on patients who genuinely have a physical need for the medication. Other stimulants like caffeine or herbal energy supplements can cause feeling of hyperactivity. After ingesting many other artificial stimulants, patients feel jittery or uncomfortable and have a hard time sitting still; Adderall has the opposite effect. Patients with Narcolepsy, however, take the medication in higher doses than people being treated with ADD or ADHD. The higher doses of the narcotic medication produce the stimulant effect many people search for with coffee or energy drinks. Because Adderall is such a powerful stimulant when administered in high enough doses, it is often prescribed to narcoleptic patients to help them stay awake, alert, and focused throughout the day.
Less Common Uses
Hyperactivity and Narcolepsy are the main medical conditions treated with Adderall. Sometimes, however, a curious doctor may prescribe the drug to you in hopes of treating another problem. Healthcare providers have been known to prescribe Adderall to victims of depression and people that are overweight or struggling to lose weight.
The Side Effects of Adderall
Common Side Effects of Adderall in Narcolepsy Patients
- Dry Mouth
- Loss of Appetite
- Decreased Rate of Growth in Children
- Weight Loss
- Insomnia or Trouble Sleeping
- Motor Restlessness- Also Known as Akathasia
- Chronic Headaches or Migraines
- Nausea and/or Vomiting
- Dizziness or Faintness
- Heartburn
- Unexplained Fevers
- Pain in the Stomach or Abdomen
- Increased Blood Pressure
- Tightness in the Chest
- Difficulty Breathing
- Shortness of Breath
- Crashing Energy Levels
Adverse Side Effects of Adderall in Narcolepsy Patients
- Feelings of Depression, Despair, Distantness, or Apathy
- Despondency
- Higher Risk of Infections
- Pain that Spreads from the Arm through the Back
- Increased Risk of Stroke, Heart Attack, Seizures and Sudden Death
- Changes in Vision
- Visual, Auditory, or Sensory Hallucinations
- Sudden Rashes or the Development of Hives
- Sudden Twitches or Uncontrollable Body Movements
- Jaw Clenching or Constant Movement of the Mouth
- Uncontrollable Shaking of the Body
- Decreased Sexual Desire
- Sexual Dysfunction
- Profuse Perspiration Without Viable Physical Activity
- Changes in Bowel Habits
- Lethargy or Extreme Tiredness
Adderall Abuse and Addiction in Narcolepsy Patients
Adderall is effective, that's why it's prescribed so readily. The problem, however, is that it has a high potential for addiction and abuse. Long-term users of the stimulant can become mentally and psychologically addicted to the stimulating effects, feeling unable to perform, focus, or function without the assistance of the drug. Physical affects also accompany Adderall addiction; heart problems, weight loss, and withdraw are common symptoms of abusers.
Adderall abuse is most commonly seen in college students. The medication is readily prescribed to many students in order to help them cope with the stresses of school work and time management. Because so many students have the medication on a regular basis, it is easy to trade and distribute among patients who use the medication recreationally or to "cram" for heavy work loads. Extended use of the medication can leave students and employees unable to perform simple daily tasks with concentration if they have not taken the medication.
The drug is also abused for its "speed" like properties, much like methamphetamines. People have been known to use the medication to achieve a rush or stimulating sensation as well as stay awake for extended periods of time.
*Many Patients grow an Adderall tolerance, and Narcolepsy treatment suffers. Adderall dosage for Narcolepsy patients should be administered carefully.
Complications, Precautions, and Warnings for Narcolepsy Patients Taking Adderall
Although most hyperactive patients are diagnosed before the age of seven, Adderall I not recommended for extremely young patients, especially not under the age of three. If a doctor tries to prescribe your young child Adderall, make sure you get a second opinion. There are other treatment options for children of that age to pursue; narcotic prescriptions should be a last resort for concerned parents and medical practitioners.
Adderall is a medicinal stimulant, yes, but it is also an extreme appetite suppressant. People who use or abuse the drug are likely to experience decreased appetite and food intake. Heavy Adderall users who experience a prolonged period of low-appetite are like to experience the complications of malnutrition or unwanted weight loss.
Adderall can react poorly to other medications. It is important to inform your doctor completely of your medical history, especially any medications you recently have taken, or are currently on. Like any narcotic medication, this drug can seriously affect the performance of another medication as well as your body's reaction to it. Mixing Adderall with other prescription medications increases the risk of overdose.
