I am not ashamed to say that prior to this story breaking I was going to vote for Stephen Labate. He is a veteran and conservative candidate here in the 3rd congressional district of NY.
However when the story on Rep Steve Israel broke, I just laughed and said amazing. Here is a guy hand picked by Nancy Pelosi as the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chairman using his power to get a bailout from a bank when he and his soon to be ex-wife bring in a combined $300k salary. He used his influence to get out of almost $100k in mortgage debt with JPM Chase saying I "had to" sell because I was getting divorced. Rep Israel voted for TARP and one of the institutions that received TARP funds all of sudden relieves a top ranking congressman's debt when most American's aren't afforded the same rights. Israel's financial statement shows he has a separate mortgage and home-equity loan valued at between $250,000 and $500,000 on a second residence — an apartment he owns in Washington.
"I don't understand how he [Israel] is eligible for this program when numerous other homeowners are struggling and are not being given this same opportunity," said Grace Slezak, owner of Destiny International Realty. "In my professional opinion," the 26-year real-estate vet said, "I don't see how he would qualify for this; it appears highly irregular."
Please read the following article from the NY Post and keep the pressure on one of Nancy Pelosi's hand picked puppets. http://goo.gl/WKpXC Get the message out about Stephen Labate.

It just keeps on going on.
Need to find out if this is part of the Hardest Hit Fund. Fed money was given to certain states, and how it's distributed is becoming suspect. Certain private non-profits, often controlled by a couple of people, can make a decision as to who gets assistance. Florida has turned down 80% of applicants on any pretext they can find. Nevada is suspect, and has a couple of guys connected to federal housing programs in charge of the program through their private non-profit. Maybe Pelosi got him into the program and pulled strings. This is a huge amount of money given to about 18 states, and I can't get an answer as to who has control of the money.
"In my professional opinion," the 26-year real-estatevet said, "I don't see how he would qualify for this; it appears highly irregular."...
She's obviously not aware of how laws don't apply to Dems like they do to we normal members of the collective herd.
JMP Chase is SLEEZY! I don't doubt that some Pelosi puppet is in bed with this hideous bunch. Too big to fail, my BUTT! These crooks need to fail. I am so sick of JPM Chase and hearing about the sleezy things they do...
Forgot to mention that Chase is part of the principal reduction program.
Congress people are about the law aren't they.. They are excempt for obamacare and retirement funds that the normal people have to deal with. Time to remove all of them and start with common sense and normal people.
I'd like to see how fast the crap would hit the fan if this was a Republican. Double standard for Demos.
If Chase Bank forgave the 93k the jerk owes, then they should forgive everyone's Mortgage Loan. Everyone with a Mortgage through Chase should ask for the same thing. It's only fair! This jerk makes a fortune compared to most of us. There's some evil favors going on....anytime Pelosi, Reid, Obama, Holder are involved...there's corruption. Guess what taxpayers? You will pay for it in the end.
I agree with you 100%!
I all way thought that elected officials could not accept gifts? I Beleive there is a law against this ! I won't say anyting about it if BOA pays off my loan too!
What is connection between Stephen Labate and Steve Isreal??

Ever since I moved to Gnome3 (at least), the login environment has stopped offering some of my window managers as options. A key examples is that I now have to login using TWM first and then select AwesomeWM from the menu it provides in order to get to Awesome. It should be possible to edit the list of window manager (any subset of the ones I have installed). Could someone point me in the right direction?
PS: This question was moved from stackoverflow.

Yesterday afternoon, i noticed that my baby was not moving as much. Called my OB and he had me do a growth ultrasound, he said my baby was not getting enough blood flow or proteins from my placenta. Everything went so fast, he did an emergency surgery in q matter of an hour from me arriving to the L&D.
The thing is, i was only 30 wks so baby will have to stay in the NiCU for i do nor know how long. He is, however, breathing on his own.
An interesting thing happened, baby does not have any markers for Down Syndrome, the NiCU doctor and nurses were saying that he needs to be tested because of the Maternit21 being positive,but that other wise, they would not had susppected anything. We know have to wait for the results.
Miroku Enamuel weighted 2 lbs and 10 oz... I do not remember the length.
I want your mamas ti be aware of your bodies and babies, accourding to my OB, had i stayed at home 6 mire hours, and baby would not had made.
Do not know how to post pictures, but i will try ASAP.
Sorry for the long post.

Christian Dior loved and thus surrounded himself with women. When he arrived in Paris, he met the woman who would later become both his muse and advisor: Mitzah Bricard, an extremely sensual woman, with a divinely chic allure and captivating presence. François Demachy has paid tribute to this lady, by creating a fragrance that bears her name: a mysterious, captivating spicy oriental perfume.
I wanted to pay tribute to its exacerbated, feline femininity with amber and spicy notes, as well as its spiritual side with a good dose of Frankincense. The result is a mysterious, highly sensual, oriental fragrance.

Russian Coriander is a spicy herb. Both peppery and slightly tangy, it adds boldness to the head notes of Mitzah.
Cinnamon is the oldest of spices. Grown in Sri Lanka, it is used in spicy and oriental fragrances. This warm spice gives Mitzah character and enchanting sensuality.
Frankincense grows wild around the Red Sea. This scented resin, which develops on shrubs, is collected in autumn. Frankincense is a mysterious material. At the heart of Mitzah, it reveals its character, sometimes dark and warm, sometimes luminous and spicy.

Life in Costa RicaPosted by Jul15, 2008 Comments /span>
It's sometimes hard to remember what our old life was like back in the U.S. When we decided to make the move, we actually just did it without too much fuss over researching and analyzing the place. I know it would have driven me crazy trying to wade through all of the info on the internet. All we knew was that we loved this little beach town, and would take each day as it came.

I have a mail server that periodically connects to the Internet via modem dialup. And before I was able to send emails with attachments of 300kb and 500kb in just only 1 or 2 minutes. I have not made any change in Postfix and now it takes longer than normal to flush the Postfix queue. Sometimes it takes more than 10 minutes to deliver an email of just 300kb. If this mail is in queue with others mails containing only text, then the rest will be delivered normally while the one containing an attachment of 300kb is delayed more than usual. Previously this was not happening and all the emails have been sent very quickly.
Any suggestion of what is going on here? Can this be caused by a very large Postfix maillog file that needs to be rotated, or reconfiguration the

While Seattle Times readers don't think very highly of a proposal, reported by that newspaper yesterday, to allow Clark County employees to have firearms if they are licensed to carry, County Commissioner Tom Mielke in an exclusive interview Friday with this column exressed a decidedly different perspective.
BULLETIN: Authorities in Portland arrested a wanted fugitive from Montana yesterday, today's Seattle Times is reporting. The manhunt for Kevin Anthony Briggs was first reported by this column one week ago. A $10,000 reward had been offered in that case.
"Employees do not, in my opinion, lose their constitutional rights because they work for the county," Mielke, a former state lawmaker, said in a telephone conversation.
Since the proposal was put on the table earlier this week, Mielke noted, "I haven't had any negatives from any of (our) employees."
The controversial proposal, which still has a long ways to go before becoming a reality, was a reaction by Mielke and Commissioner David Madore to a shooting in a county office building by a woman who was allegedly stalking the man she shot, Allen Bricker.
The woman, Deborah Lennon, has been charged with first-degree attempted murder, first-degree assault, stalking and cyberstalking, the Times reported.
Mielke told Examiner that he's gotten strong support from local citizens, but there has also been some opposition. A local Vancouver anti-gunner, Heidi Yewman, told the Vancouver Columbian earlier in the week that "A gun is not a defensive tool, it's an offensive tool." That remark leaves self-defense experts rolling their eyes.
A self-admitted conservative, Mielke said, "We promote diversity, equal rights and the right to protect one's self and why in the world would I take that away from my employees? Why would I knowingly make them a target by putting a sign out here (that says) 'gun free zone?' That's what we do."
The Clark County Commission may be at odds with a 1991 State Supreme Court ruling in Cherry v. The Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle, however. In that case, Metro bus driver John Cherry was dismissed from the job because he was carrying a handgun on the job in violation of Metro policy. The state high court upheld the firing.
Times readers have raised concerns about liability from accidental discharges and workplace violence, but nobody has raised the equal concern about people being able to defend themselves from workplace violence. Mielke, who is licensed to carry, noted that as a commissioner, he's exempt from the no-guns policy for employees. He considers that something of a double standard, and he trusts Clark County employees far more than the gun control crowd evidently does.

Back in April, I wrote about in interesting new venture from the Linux Foundation called the OpenDaylight Project. As I pointed out then, what made this significant was that it showed how the Linux Foundation was beginning to move beyond its historical origins of supporting the Linux ecosystem, towards the broader application of the important lessons it has learnt about open source collaboration in the process.
The Biological Expression Language (BEL) may be on the road to becoming a ubiquitous mode of communication among life scientists. OpenBEL, the open-source software project that seeks to transform life science data into something akin to HTML coding language, has partnered with The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit technology consortium that promotes the growth and development of the open-source operating system Linux.
The Linux Foundation is growing its roster of collaboration projects by expanding from the physica
The Linux Foundation, champion of all things open-source, has just announced a new collaboration with OpenBEL, an open-source platform for sharing scientific data.
OpenBEL was, until about a year ago, a proprietary project. The foundation, which has huge amounts of experience in creating, guiding, and maintaining open-source software, intends to help OpenBEL with adoption and collaboration in its own community.
Can the development model that is used to build Linux be extended for the life sciences? A new collaborative project will aim to answer that question.
The Linux Foundation is growing its roster of collaboration projects by expanding from the physical into the biological realm with the OpenBEL (Biological Expression Language). The Linux Foundation, best known as the organization that helps bring Linux vendors and developers together, is also growing its expertise as a facilitator for collaborative development projects.
In addition to overhauling its website in a big way, The Linux Foundation has just announcedthat OpenBEL, an open source platform for sharing scientific data, is now a Linux Foundation collaborative project.
Linux kernel developers have selected a new long-term kernel that could serve as the basis for enterprise Linux distributions as well as consumer electronics devices.

text: Johannesburg - Massmart Holdings [JSE:MSM] is looking to buy a local fresh produce supplier just weeks after its own acquisition by US retail giant Walmart, Business Day reported on Tuesday, citing a spokesperson. "Massmart can confirm that an application relating to the potential acquisition of Fruitspot by Massmart was lodged with the Competition Commission today," Massmart spokesperson Brian Leroni is reported as saying. Johannesburg-based Fruitspot supplies other retailers, including listed chain Spar Group [JSE:SPP], the report said. Walmart, the world's largest retailer, finalised a $2.4bn purchase of 51% of discount retailer Massmart, after winning approval with minimal conditions from South Africa's competition authorities. Under the conditions, Massmart must not cut jobs for two years, honour existing labour agreements and work to develop local suppliers. Unions had demanded strict targets on using local manufacturers.

US envoy appreciates SKMCH's services for cancer patients
LAHORE; Thursday, October 06, 2011: US Ambassador Cameron Munter, along with his wife Dr Marlin White, visited the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (SKMCH&RC) on Wednesday.
Shaukat Khanum Hospital CEO Dr Faisal Sultan welcomed the honourable guests. Dr Faisal highlighted the performance of the hospital through a presentation and also shared the future plans of the hospital with the guests.
The US ambassador took a round of different departments of the hospital. The couple thanked the hospital management for providing them with the opportunity of visiting the wonderful institution. Munter appreciated the state-of-the-art facilities and services being provided to cancer patients at the hospital. He said that the hospital was well and truly serving the greater humanitarian cause. "I am glad that SKMCH&RC is working in research and other medical fields in collaboration with international institutions and I am of the view that the hospital should extend its collaboration with other health care institutions, especially in the US", he added. Munter said that the US government would be happy to provide any kind of assistance in this regard. Meanwhile, Munter and his wife also distributed gifts among the cancer patients.

This stunning La Sposa gown is from the 2011 collection and was constructed in Italy from Torino taffeta. It features lace and bead appliques, with a stunning lace insert in the skirt. The crisscrossing design on the bodice together with the sweetheart neckline makes the top incredibly
flattering. The skirt is also very flattering, with a fit-and-flare shape and a beautiful train that looks amazing. This dress was worn once. It is a size 6 and was altered to fit my size 4 frame.

After a remarkable sophomore season in 2012, Daniel Munyer was enjoying his time in the sun.
Following a solid, yet limited freshman campaign, Munyer's stellar play as an interchangeable component of an injury riddled offensive line earned him honorable mention All-Pac-12 Conference honors from the league's coaches last year.
His spring camp began with all the promise he had started to fulfill in the fall and then, in an instant, everything changed. Early in spring camp, he suffered a fractured fibula in a fumble recovery drill and was sidelined for the reminder of off-season workouts.
Although the physical development and maturation on the field heading into his junior season will now have to be condensed into one solid month, Munyer has never stopped working towards improving. The setback has given Munyer a chance to focus more on his development in other areas, which in the long run, may be just as important.
"The first month after the injury I really couldn't do anything,' said Munyer. "I was in a boot and I just spent a lot of time in the weight room. Then in the past 4-5 weeks or so I got the boot off and I've been working a lot on my footwork, my steps and learning the offense."
Some may question his ability to return to full strength in time for the start of the season but, Munyer himself is not among those naysayers.
"I still think I can make All-Pac-12 (this year)," said Munyer. "I'm always looking to improve and I don't think this injury changes anything (for me)."
Unfortunately, this was not Munyer's first setback in his career as a Buff. After redshirting in 2010, he started the 2011 season atop the depth chart at center. He played well for the first three games then suffered a severe ankle sprain, which sidelined him for four weeks. By the time he returned to lineup in late October, his replacement, Gus Handler, was firmly entrenched at the position and Munyer was relegated to spot duty for the remainder of the season.
Munyer started to break through in 2012. After beginning the season at right guard, he filled in admirably at center for an injured Handler on six different occasions throughout the year. Despite having to frequently adjust to the nuances of two very different positions, Munyer still graded out to over 83 percent for the year (over 80 percent in nine games), tied for the team lead in touchdown blocks with seven, and was not called for a single penalty all season. He played a team-high 785 snaps, not just on offense but overall.
"All of the accolades and praises I received last season were a great honor for me and I definitely felt like I deserved them but there is still (some things) I can need to get better at," said Munyer. "I think I need to get better in terms of communicating with everyone else on the line and just continue to keep learning my job. As long as I know what I'm doing that will make everyone's job that much easier."
Making his return that much more challenging is the implementation of a fast-paced offense by the new coaching staff lead by head coach Mike MacIntyre. MacIntyre, who was hired in January, has brought with him the promise of fielding a unit whose speed will rival some of the more fast paced offenses in the country in 2013.
"Coming off an injury, it's going to be hard to adapt," said Munyer "But if I think I'll be able to figure it out. I just have to make sure I stay conditioned because I have to be able to run (quickly to the line of scrimmage between plays)."
A young offensive line grew up last season perhaps more than any other unit. A number of injuries forced young and inexperienced players into the lineup, who gained valuable experience in the process. With that kind of familiarity amongst the underclassmen, a new found level of stability amongst the upperclassmen, and the expected return of the versatile Munyer in August, a unit that may have once been considered a team weakness has slowly become one of its biggest strengths.

Experts say child porn suspect Matthew Graziotti's multiple contacts with children fit a classic pattern seen among pedophiles.
Community Forum Monday Night
Warner Christian Academy will host a forum tonight featuring counselors and specialists in child protection and sexual abuse in the wake of a teacher being charged with producing child pornography.
The community is invited to attend the forum from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the White Chapel Church of God, 1730 S. Ridgewood Ave., South Daytona. The event is designed to help parents know the signs and symptoms of trauma reactions and when to seek therapy. It is not appropriate for children to attend, a press release states.
Warner Christian is sponsoring the forum in conjunction with The House Next Door, Volusia County Schools, Community Partnership for Children and The University of Florida Division of Child Protection Team.
"We can share information about sexual abuse," said Steve Sally of The House Next Door, a family services agency. "We can talk about the do's and don'ts about what the parents need to be doing with their children now and how different kids react to different things differently."
He said that even if no students at the school were victimized, they may still have some trauma because a teacher and role model was arrested.
— Frank Fernandez
"Classic, classic, predator behavior of using every means possible to gain access to kids and access to and authority over kids," said David Clohessy with the Survivors Network of Those Abused By Priests.
Graziotti, 43, was arrested by the FBI last week after a search of his Edgewater home revealed thousands of images of child pornography on his computer, authorities said. He faces federal charges of production, distribution, receipt and possession of child pornography, and is being held without bail at the Seminole County jail.
Graziotti has a preliminary hearing set for 10 a.m. Thursday before U.S. Magistrate Judge Thomas B. Smith at the federal courthouse in Orlando.
Graziotti had worked at Warner Christian Academy, a private school in South Daytona, for about nine years, teaching fifth- to eighth-grade classes and was director of the school's summer day camp.
He was an adult volunteer leader in scouting, according to the Boy Scouts of America. A website listed him with Cub Scout Pack 425 in Edgewater. Graziotti also volunteered to help supervise children at the Edgewater Alliance Church.
After his arrest, Warner Christian suspended him without pay, the church suspended his membership, and the scouts gave him the boot.
Ninety-nine percent of teachers want to help kids, said Steve Sally, executive director of The House Next Door, a multi-faceted family services agency that will take part in a forum on child safety and welfare on Monday sponsored in part by Warner Christian Academy.
While not speaking about Graziotti's case in particular, Sally said some people seeking to prey on children will join organizations putting them close to children.
"It's all about them having access to the children and the quickest way is for them to get into a position where they could be in isolation with the kids," Sally said.
When the FBI searched Graziotti's home on Mango Tree Drive in Edgewater, they found a computer with a file folder containing 8,761 images, many depicting sexual abuse and exploitation of prepubescent males, according to a criminal complaint. The FBI also found another computer folder titled "personally known" with 41 subfolders with boys' names.
Mark Tress, superintendent at Warner Christian Academy, said Thursday that no children from the school had been identified as victims so far. Tress could not be reached Friday. The Boy Scouts of America said Friday the group was not aware of any victims.
Working or volunteering in close proximity to children at schools, churches and other organizations is a pattern, said Clohessy with the Survivors Network of Those Abused By Priests. The positions bring added respectability for someone wanting to abuse children, he said.
"He's not just a friendly neighbor with a lot of video games and big screen TV that will draw youngsters to him," Clohessy said. "In these positions, he will have some degree of respect and power that comes from having a good title."
Most teachers and volunteers working with children are there for the right reasons, said Tony Rodriguez, a special agent supervisor with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in Orlando.
"In general, for the most part, most of these people that have positions in those types of groups or associations are good people, law-abiding citizens that want to do good for the community and the kids," Rodriguez said.
Child pornographers and abusers come from a cross section of society, he said.
"You have people who may be homeless that have a tendency to do this all the way to leaders of schools, clergy, all kinds of people, all kinds of classes, lower class, middle class and upper class."
Rodriguez said he did not want to focus on any particular occupation or civic activities of pedophiles.
"It's probably more appropriate to say that a person that has an attraction to children of whatever age is going to be gravitating toward a place or an organization that gives him access to children," Rodriguez said.
And some will turn to a keyboard and a computer mouse to find their child victims rather than volunteering for a group focused on children, Rodriguez said.
Mark Jones, chief executive officer with the Community Partnership for Children, will also be presenting at the forum on Monday. Jones said he will discuss the signs that parents can look for that signal children need help.
"For a lot of boys, especially young men, it's very difficult, very embarrassing for them to come forward," Jones said. "So you really want to encourage people to come forward. A lot of people don't realize that they can carry these emotional scars for life."

New proof: FREEDOM TO WORK WORKS!
Freedom To Work states enjoy increased real personal Income growth,
Population growth and Employment growth
MEA members can option out all year now
(Teachers can give themselves a 2% raise)
UAW Members Can Option Out using Beck Rights,
or can leave the union with the new Contracts
Union bosses vetted legislative candidates by asking for a commitment to remove the laws that were passed December 11, 2012 and went into effect March, 2013. After their recall of a state representative in a south Genesee County seat was replaced by an even more conservative representative, at a huge cost, their tactic turned from recalls to the next elections. They failed in November, 2014 as legislators and the Governo who supported Freedom To Wok were e-elected and new supportes won seats.
Prevailing wage laws cost Michigan taxpayers about $400 MILLION A YEAR. In increased school construction costs alone, taxpayers are being over-charged $224 Million a year. You can help as a volunteer here: http://www.supportfreedomtowork.com.
Prevailing Wage information is available here: www.prevailingwagetruth,com
The over-charge equates to about $ 2.24 Billion over the last decade – enough to pay for 317 new elementary schools, as if we needed them with decreasing student population.
"Freedom To Work states enjoy increased real personal income growth, population growth and employment growth…a Competitive Enterprise Institute study. Authors Richard Vedder and Jonathon Robe control for a variety of factors that impact state economic growth. They then compare the performance of FTW states and non-FTW states from 1977 to 2012. A chief finding is "that the overall effect of a RTW law is to increase economic growth rates by 11.5 percentage points."
Vedder and Robe also analyzed FTW laws' impact on per-capita income. They estimate how much non-RTW states lost in potential income from 1977 to 2012. The median was $3,278 per capita, or about $13,000 annually for a family of four. Michigan suffered the 6th largest state income loss ($34.2 billion) and was 10th in per capita income loss ($3,460)" before our labor freedom laws passed.
The study highlights some additional statistics that suggest RTW laws have a positive impact on economic growth. For instance, real personal income in RTW states grew by 165 percent from 1977 to 2012, but only by 99 percent in states without such laws. Measured by per-capita income, states with RTW laws grew by 65 percent, whereas non-RTW states grew by only 50 percent."
Edited excerpts from New Evidence: Right-to-Work Laws Work By Michael Van Beek | July 24, 2014 http://www.michigancapitolconfidential.com/20314
As Abe Lincoln said, you change public policy be changing public opinion. Michigan Freedom To Work has been on the forefront of educating the public and changing public opinion, so much so that the political climate overwhelmingly defeated the Union Boss Proposal 2 at the ballot in 2012 and the public and our supporters demanded the Governor and legislature take action.
We must continue to study the impacts, report and educate the results of positive impacts from labor freedom. We have an education program in the workplaces with a flier we must continue to get out. It has a hotline number for workers being intimidated or being given difficulty by union agents or co-workers who are over-zealous bullies on this issue.

Trans-Canada Highway Realignment
The Trans-Canada Highway Realignment will:
Detailed Route Map
Frequently Asked Questions
Environmental Background Information
Construction Schedule
Send us an email
Across the country, provinces and municipalities are facing an aging road and highway network. Prince Edward Island is no exception. Over the past 10 years more than $100 million was invested to improve Route 2. Now that this work is complete, the focus is on improving the Trans-Canada highway, beginning in Churchill. The Trans-Canada is the province's busiest route and most important highway, yet it does not meet today's standards.
The road was designed in the 1950s. The transportation needs of the province are much different now – the reliance on trucks to transport goods has greatly increased and more and more vehicles drive this stretch of highway each day. This trend will continue.
The Trans-Canada highway realignment in Churchill is the first major improvement to the Trans-Canada. The existing 6.1 kilometre section will be replaced with a 5.8 kilometre road.
Department engineers and internationally recognized consultants have identified a number of problems with the stretch of highway between New Haven and Bonshaw. The project will make this stretch of road much safer while protecting the land in the Bonshaw hills for future generations, and creating jobs for Islanders.

The Crommyon Sow. Athenian red figure askos C5th B.C.,
University of Pennsylvania Museum, Philadelphia
THE HUS KROMMYON (or Crommyonian Sow) was monstrous wild pig which terrorized the countryside around Krommyon on the Korinthian Isthmus. It was the pet of an old hag named Phaia ("the Grey").
Both the boar and its mistress were slain by Theseus when the hero was travelling the road from Troizenos to Athens clearing the thoroughfare of its assorted bandits and miscreants.
PHAEA (Phaia), the name of the sow of Crommyon, which ravaged the neighbourhood, and was slain by Theseus. (Plut. Thes. 9; Plat. Lach. p. 196, e.; Eurip. Suppl. 316.)
Source: Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology.
Bacchylides, Fragment 18 (trans. Campbell, Vol. Greek Lyric IV) (Greek lyric C5th B.C.) :
"He [Theseus] has killed the man-killing sow in the glens of Kremmyon."
Plato, Laches 196e (trans. Lamb) (Greek philosopher C4th B.C.) :
"Sokrates : You do not believe that even the Krommyonian sow could have been courageous . . . for him who states this theory to refuse courage to any wild beast."
Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca E1. 1 (trans. Aldrich) (Greek mythographer C2nd A.D.) :
"Theseus slew the sow at Krommyon called Phaia after the old woman who kept it. Some say its parents were Ekhidna and Typhon."
Strabo, Geography 8. 6. 22 (trans. Jones) (Greek geographer C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"Krommyon is a village in Korinthia, though in earlier times it was in Megaris; and in it is laid the scene of the myth of the Krommyonian Sow, which, it is said, was the mother of the Kaledonian Boar; and, according to tradition, the destruction of this sow was one of the labors of Theseus."
Pausanias, Description of Greece 2. 1. 3 (trans. Jones) (Greek travelogue C2nd A.D.) :
"Here [at Kromyon, Korinthos] they say that Phaia was bred; overcoming this sow was one of the traditional achievements of Theseus."
Diodorus Siculus, Library of History 4. 59. 4 (trans. Oldfather) (Greek historian C1st B.C.) :
"For his [Theseus'] third deed he slew the wild sow which had its haunts about Krommyon, a beast excelled in both ferocity and size and was killing many human beings."
Plutarch, Life of Theseus 9. 1 (trans. Perrin) (Greek historian C1st to C2nd A.D.) :
"Now the Krommyonian Sow, which they called Phaia, was no insignificant creature, but fierce and hard to master. This sow he went out of his way to encounter and slay, that he might not be thought to perform all his exploits under compulsion, and at the same time because he thought that while the brave man ought to attack villainous men only in self defence, he should seek occasion to risk his life in battle with the nobler beasts. However, some say that Phaia was a female robber, a woman of murderous and unbridled spirit, who dwelt in Krommyon, was called Sow because of her life and manners, and was afterwards slain by Theseus."
Pseudo-Hyginus, Fabulae 38 (trans. Grant) (Roman mythographer C2nd A.D.) :
"He [Theseus] slew the wild boar at Cremyon."
Ovid, Metamorphoses 7. 433 (trans. Melville) (Roman epic C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) :
"Great Theseus, mighty prince . . . Your work, your gift it is that safe from that fierce sow (Sus Cromyona) the farmers till the fields of Cromyon."

A Hippo saves gnu from a crocodile attack, proving that even nature's most undomesticated beasts at times come to the aid of their fellow creatures. Video shot by onlookers caught the action at the Masai Mara game reserve in Kenya.
According to Yahoo! News on Tuesday, "in a miraculous turn of events, a nearby hippo is seen making its way across the water to help the animal in its hour of need."
The croc bit into the wildebeest and started to drag it under the water, but the hippo is seen intervening and chasing the crocodile away. The hippo then seems to guard the gnu, nudging it to move out of harm's way.
Israeli photographer Vadim Onishchenko spoke about being able to witness the strange collaboration.
"It was an incredible moment," Vadim said. "The hippo actually tried to push it out of the water and then guarded the gnu to prevent the crocs getting close. I have heard of cases where the animal's instinct is to protect the other species; I think the hippos parental instincts took over."
Vadim says crocs and hippos have a healthy respect for one another.
"The hippos are probably the only animal not afraid of the crocs and I would even say the hippo is the only animal the crocodiles are afraid of," the photographer commented.
According to National Geographic, hippos can weigh anywhere between 5,000 to 8,000 pounds and have a body length of 9 to 14 feet. Despite being herbivores, hippos can be very aggressive and are considered one of Africa's most deadly animals, killing thousands of people every year.

Sept. 17, 2010
Saturday's football game pitting No. 9 Iowa against host No. 24 Arizona has sold out, officials announced after the close of business today.
McKale Center Ticket office had only some scattered singles for sale today to make it official, and a crowd in excess of the listed 57,400 capacity at Arizona Stadium is guaranteed.
Iowa's squad held a brief walk-through at the stadium in the heat of the afternoon after arriving via charter air, while UA kept to its practice field for a similar final check plus met for several hours at mid day with ESPN producers and announcers in football offices.
The game kicks off at 7:30 p.m. to a national audience on ESPN. Both the Wildcats and Hawkeyes enter the contest at 2-0, with the winner expected to solidify early season status as a national contender.
UA last had an announced sellout against ASU in 2008, plus drew a capacity crowd on game day when College Game Day came to Tucson last fall for the Oregon game, among two other recent full crowds.

Mikko Viljanen was one of three Green Wave players to win two matches Tuesday.
Nov. 2, 2000
ATHENS, Ga. - The Tulane University men's tennis team had an outstanding first day of action at the ITA Region III Tennis Championships at the University of Georgia's Dan Magill Tennis Complex on Thursday as freshman Michael Kogan, junior Mikko Viljanen and sophomore Mattias Westerberg all picked up two wins on the day.
The upset of the day was Kogan's second-round victory over Mississippi's Alex Hartman, the No. 2 seed in the tournament and the 10th ranked player in the nation.
The unseeded Kogan topped Florida's Troy Hahn in the first round in a hard-fought 7-6, 6-7, 6-1 decision which began at 9 a.m. Just three hours after the start of his battle with Hahn, Kogan met Hartman, one of the favorites in the event, who had received a first-round bye due to his high seed.
Viljanen and Westerberg also picked up a pair of victories. Viljanen defeated Alabama's Narla Susheel in a three-set first-round match and continued with a triumph over Georgia's Brandon Wagner, who also had a first-round bye, in round two. Westerberg knocked off Mississippi's Conor Casey in the first round and then topped No. 16 seed Jason Ontog from UT-Chattanooga in round two. Ontog is ranked No. 80 in the nation.
All three players return to action on Friday, with Kogan and Viljanen also competing in the doubles' draw. The Green Wave duo earned a first-round bye in doubles.

This review is going to be approached a little bit differently than most 3dXtreme reviews. While it's not really a roundup it's more of a comparison.

So what ram is the right ram for you right now? Do you buy something like Muskin's pc3200 (400 mhz) which will take us into the next generation of motherboards the kt400? Or do you buy something like Crucial's pc2700 (333 mhz) and worry about buying faster ram when the kt400 boards arrive?More information at 3dXtreme

Man halts robbery attempt after recognizing would-be victim
Published: Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 4:28 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 4:28 p.m.
A Thomasville man is in custody after attempting to rob someone he knew at an ATM machine early Tuesday morning.
Police say about 1:51 a.m., Neal Allen McMann, 25, of 3524 Meadowbrook Drive, Trinity, approached an occupied vehicle parked at a Cash Points ATM at 29 W. Main St. with the intent to commit a robbery.
However, when McMann approached the vehicle, which was occupied by two females, he and one of the car's passengers recognized one another, Thomasville Police Department Det. Brad Saintsing said.
McMann reportedly stated that "she was lucky he knew her," Saintsing said. In addition, McMann also stated he had a pistol with him, according to a magistrate's order.
Nothing was taken from the victim, who later provided police with McMann's vehicle description.
McMann was arrested and charged with attempted common law robbery. He was issued a $5,000 secured bond and given a Oct. 23 court date in Thomasville.

Senior David Napoli pitched 6.2 innings for his fourth win of the season
April 27, 2013
CHARLESTON, W. Va. - Tulane's baseball squad won game two of the doubleheader against Marshall, 7-3, giving the Green Wave the series after a long 24 hours at Appalachian Power Park in Charleston, W. Va. on Saturday.
The Greenies lost game one of the series to Marshall (16-26, 5-10) in 11 innings on Friday night, but came back on Saturday to win game one of the doubleheader, 3-2, in the second consecutive 11 inning game. After scoring only six runs in the first two games of the series, Tulane (22-22, 7-8) put a combined six runs on the board in the final three frames of the rubber match. Two of the runs scored today were by Andrew Garner, who had another huge night, going 4-for-4 at the plate and getting a save in the process.
"Our kids showed some grit and some resolve today after two straight close losses," said Tulane baseball head coach Rick Jones. "I thought David Napoli gave us another great performance, and Andrew Garner had a huge weekend at the plate for us, and followed that up with his performance on the mound today. Brennan Middleton and Nick DiMaggio hit very well for us today too. And you can't discount how Cameron Burns caught all weekend for us. Today puts us in a better situation in the league, and it gives us something to build on."
The sweep of a doubleheader of a Conference USA foe was the first for the Greenies since 2008, when they took back-to-back contests on the same day from the East Carolina Pirates.
It didn't take long in game two for Tulane to get on the base paths, as freshman Richard Carthon led the game off by reaching on an error by shortstop Sergio Leon. After a moonshot caught at the warning track in right field off the bat of senior Brandon Boudreaux, the Greenies hit into an inning ending double play.
Napoli (4-2) - who got the start on the mound for the Greenies - allowed the first hit of the contest to Marshall's Andrew Dundon, who moved to second on a groundout. Napoli walked Chase Vogelbach and Nathan Gomez to load the bases with two outs. Fortunately, Tulane was able to escape trouble as Gray Stafford popped up to senior Sean Potkay in foul territory.
Garner beat out a double clutch throw from third base on an infield grounder to lead off the top of the second, and then he stole second base for just his second theft of the season. Middleton joined him on the base paths after getting hit by a pitch - his fourth plunking of the series. Junior Bowen Woodson hit what could have been a routine inning ending double play, but after putting out Middleton at second, Leon wildly threw to first, allowing Garner to score from second for the first run of the contest.
Marshall scored two in the bottom of the third on a home run off the bat of Eric Escobedo, his first of the season. Dundon had reached base just prior to the round tripper after getting hit by a pitch.
Boudreaux led off the top of the sixth with a walk, but was caught stealing for the first out of the inning. Cannizaro then sent a line drive into right field before Taylor grazed Garner to put runners on first and second. A fly ball to center field off the bat of Potkay was caught by Ballou and then Middleton hit an infield hit to load the bases. However, Taylor was able to strike out the last Green Wave batter to strand three Tulane runners.
Burns drew a walk from Taylor with one out in the top of the seventh, and Marshall sent lefty Alex Thackston to the mound. Carthon hit a short hopper right in front of the dish, and Thackston (0-3) threw the ball away at first, sending the ball deep into right field to score Burns from second to tie the contest and moving Carthon to second. After Thackston walked Boudreaux on four straight pitches, the entire Marshall battery was replaced as Kolin Stanley took the mound and Matt Kirkwood subbed for David Diaz-Fernandez behind the dish. Cannizaro tried to stretch a single into a double, and while he was thrown out at second, both Carthon and Boudreaux came home to score after Ballou fumbled the ball in an attempt to make a play at the plate. Garner then followed that action up with an infield single to shortstop. He stole second and reached third on the throw - Marshall's fifth error of the inning and third error of the frame - before Marshall was able to get out of the inning without any further damage.
Leon led off the bottom of the seventh with a double off the wall. But a keen Napoli was able to pick him off at second base. However, Ballou singled to right field and Escobedo doubled over the head of Carthon in left field to score Ballou, cutting Tulane's lead to just one run. Garner came to the mound in relief of Napoli in the contest at that juncture of the game. Burns made an amazing one-knee sliding catch in front of the Tulane dugout on a foul ball from Vogelbach to strand the tying run at second base, and sending the contest to the eighth.
Middleton singled on a bloop single to center field on a full count to lead off the top of the eighth, and he advanced to second on a groundout. DiMaggio - who was making his second consecutive start of the weekend - nailed a double down the left field line that plated Middleton to give Tulane a 5-3 lead. Marshall sent Matt Hummel to the mound with two outs and DiMaggio at second in the top of the eighth, and Carthon sent a bouncer through the right side of the infield to score DiMaggio, giving Tulane a 6-3 lead.
Garner came back to the mound in the bottom of the eighth and allowed back-to-back singles to Vogelbach and Gomez, but Gomez was put out on a double play by Strafford. Vogelbach moved to third on the play, but Garner was able to strike out Bossi to send the game into the ninth. Garner - still batting despite being on the mound - notched a single up the middle with one-out, and he moved to second on an infield groundout by Potkay. Middleton brought him home on his third hit of the game, giving Tulane a 7-3 lead, and knocking Hummel out of the contest. Kyle Kessler came on in relief and Middleton was called out at second base on a very questionable call for the final out of the frame.
Garner remained on the hill in the ninth, and he allowed a one-out single to pinch hitter Travis Myers. Ballou doubled down the left field line to put Myers at third. However, he was able to strikeout Dundon before inducing a groundout to Escobedo for the final out of the game. Garner earned his fourth save of the season for his efforts on the mound.
At the dish, Garner went 4-for-4, collecting his first career four hit game. During game one of the series, he was initially credited with four hits, but the official scorer changed the scoring to an error late last night, giving Garner only three hits. Garner also stole three bags in game two of the doubleheader. For the series, Garner was 8-for-14 at the dish.
Middleton went 3-for-4 on the day, giving him his first multi-hit game since the second game of the East Carolina series on April 13.
Napoli pitched 6.2 innings, striking out five and allowing seven hits for his fourth win on the year. Thackston, who only faced one batter, got the loss.
The Greenies will return to action on Tuesday at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium when they will host Southeastern Louisiana at 6:30pm CT. The game will be broadcast on 88.3 FM WRBH. Wednesday, the New Orleans Privateers will come to the Uptown campus for a 5pm CT game that can be heard on 106.1 The Ticket.

A former reporter, Springfield Lewis started his corporate career at IBM, becoming a speechwriter for senior executives. As director of communications at EDS, he continued working with several chief executives there, as well as developing communications during HP's acquisition of the company.
by Springfield Lewis, Newsroom Ink's VP of Strategic Communication and Ed Lallo, CEO and Founder
Recently, the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) announced two major changes that will define its ability to successfully move forward.
The first is the rollout of its digital edition of Communication World (CW). The second is the departure of executive director Chris Sorek. Sadly, both are not good news for the 14,000 members.
In a recent media release, IABC stated the once bi-monthly magazine will be posted now once a month. It will be available on desktop, mobile and iOS devices, with an Android version released in the near future.
One of the main reasons the magazine went digital was overseas members didn't receive printed copies for several weeks after mailing, according to Natasha Nicholson, executive director of Communication World. By going digital, she explained that subscribers will receive each issue as soon as it is available.
The organization plans to offer the online magazine free for the next four months, and then charge $120 a year to non-members.
Going "e" Ain't e-nough
While attractive, the slick and costly publication already was an outdated way of communicating. Delivering digitally it reduces printing and mailing costs. So on one level, the new format makes sense.
The e-version, however, still does not allow for two-way conversations with members. Also, it lacks the ability for the timely transfer of important information.
"Trust" is the topic of the first electronic issue. It came out with the departure of IABC's Sorek. Based on Tweets and other comments online, the news left some members questioning the organization's leadership.
When such events occur, there's a better way to communicate with members, inviting their immediate participation up close – rather than leaving them to post after-the-fact reactions from afar.
An online newsroom, which creates a sense of community, can foster communications among stakeholders — inside and outside an organization. Using brand journalism as its base, a newsroom reports stories as they happen and follows their development.
Also, a newsroom introduces different opinions, perspectives and offers a forum for open discussions among members and influencers. It is also an effective marketing tool, reaching communication professionals outside the organization.
Born in Crisis, Built for Business
Often, a newsroom is created during a crisis, stepping into the void left by media outlets either too busy or not interested in covering a particular issue or event. It provides a much-needed voice amid the drama for those who otherwise might be ignored and go unheard.
Beyond that, a newsroom proves to be a powerful business and marketing tool when aligned with an organization's strategic agenda. An editorial calendar, embedded with SEO triggers, produces a drumbeat of coverage on industry issues, market trends and thought leadership – all designed to advance the conversation for an organization.
As a newsroom's reputation and online community grow, it becomes a respected and often-quoted source for news and points of view. At the same time, it is a place where an organization's leaders, members and others can express ideas, air differences and be recognized for their expertise and insights.
Communication World Newsroom
This said, how would a Communication World newsroom handle the Sorek departure announcement?
Most probably, such a newsroom would:
- First, produce out-in-front stories – putting things in proper perspective within IABC's overall direction.
- Second, make the organization's position known on discussion boards – getting it on the record, engaging critics, and perhaps, shortstopping some negative chat.
For the first part, planned coverage might include:
- Official announcement done as a news story, with comments from IABC Chair Kerby Meyer and incoming Chair Robin McCasland.
- Sidebar story by Meyer on how he hopes to handle the leadership transition over the next few months as the board searches for a new executive director.
- Article by McCasland on how this transition will affect the upcoming IABC World Conference and her move into the board chair.
- Possible stories from chapter and regional perspectives on how leadership changes could affect their operations, if at all.
- Q&A with select IABC Fellows, getting their thoughts on the situation.
- Interview with Sorek, giving him an opportunity to talk about the change.
On the second front, a newsroom could address issues raised in chat rooms by:
- Interviewing Mark Ragan, CEO of Ragan Communications, to address – and even diffuse – the constant questions he raises in IABC chat rooms.
- Focusing on lingering, chat-room questions, which revolve around:
- Release of last year's financial statement, with a piece outlining the fiscal health of the organization
- Cost of Sorek's hiring, and how things might be handled differently this next go-around.
Buy into What You Sell
As an organization of professionals, IABC has in the hand the expertise to intelligently communicate about its business and operations. After all, it's the same expertise it educates and sells to members – who, in turn, counsel the world's business leaders about what's best in communications.
For IABC leadership to do anything less for its own members seems, well, disingenuous.
For now, what we are left with is communications interruptus: "Can't get no…"
We know the song and the words. What's important here is that we know there's a better way to communicate – as professionals leading professionals. To paraphrase for the sake of progress: "Hey, hey, hey. That's what we should all say."

Tricks On How To Be Successful In The Stock Market
Getting a solid education about the stock market is the best thing you can do for yourself before you begin investing. You should always look at how each company has performed before investing money into their stock options. Read on to learn some tips and tricks to follow when trying to navigate the rough world of stock market investing.
Even though it is important to be dedicated to what you are doing while investing, you must be careful not to let it become an obsession. If you obsess over the stock market on a daily basis it is more likely that you will become tired and start making mistakes.
Many people search out stable sectors and companies during the period of a recession, and usually look to be a bit more conservative in their investments. But you have to keep up to date on new industries and companies within these industries that have new products or have brought about radical changes that are secure for the future like renewable energies. Your portfolio should have a few shares from companies which are developing products for the future.
Keeping it simple applies to most things in life, and the stock market is no exception. Maintain a simplistic approach to your trading style and market analysis so that you are not making unnecessary risks or leaving certain steps unaccounted for.
Paper trading is a good way to lead up to stock market investing. This is a great way to practice your investing skills, and you won't actually lose any money along the way. Just use paper to track your imaginary investments, and deal with fake currency.
When looking at stocks, don't always look at high-priced companies, with eye-popping PE ratios. Look at steady, lower-priced stocks as well.

If you are an owner of common stock, you should take full advantage of the rights you have to vote as a shareholder. Depending on what the company's charter says, you might have voting rights which allow you to elect board directors, or even make proposals for big company changes like a merger. You may vote in person at the annual shareholders' meeting or by proxy, either online or by mail.
Pay attention to how the company's equity is in line with their internal voting right when doing company analysis. Sometimes, corporate management teams hold only five percent of your stock, but the voting power control can be around 70%. This can put up red flags, and might make you rethink investing with that company.
When investing in the stock market stay within your risk limits. If you are using an online or discount brokerage yourself, be sure you are looking only at companies you are familiar with.

Rely on the guidance of a professional financial adviser when it comes to stocks in industries you do not know.

Keep the tips featured above at the forefront of your mind, and very soon you could be making a lot of money.
