When I search for something using the Google search engine on Firefox's top right, it first checks www.google.com which then gets redirected to www.google.co.in. When I'm on a slow connection, this unnecessary redirect adds a few agonizing seconds to every search I perform.
How can I change it so that Firefox uses a google.co.in URL by default? I get a
Add <SiteName> option when I'm on other sites (e.g. right now I have
Add SuperUser) in the list of search engines, but visiting google.co.in doesn't give me such an option. Is this a hard-coded exception in Firefox? How can I circumvent this?

Women (@uclawtennis)The top-ranked UCLA women's tennis team (16-0; 3-0 Pac-12) continues conference play this week, as the Bruins are scheduled to host both Washington and Oregon at the Los Angeles Tennis Center. UCLA begins the weekend against 48th-ranked Washington (6-7; 0-4 Pac-12) on Friday at Noon. UCLA owns an 18-2 all-time record against the Huskies, notching a 6-1 victory last season at the LATC. The Bruins round out the weekend against Oregon (9-5; 0-4) on Saturday at Noon. UCLA, which posted a 6-1 win over the Ducks last year in Eugene, leads that series 15-0. There is no charge for admission to regular season home matches at the LATC. Live stats for this weekend's matches can be accessed by clicking HERE.
UCLA made its first-ever Pac-12 road trips to Colorado and Utah last week, coming away with a pair of victories to improve to 3-0 in conference play. The Bruins downed Colorado, 5-2 in Boulder on Friday and followed that up with a 6-1 victory over Utah on Sunday in Salt Lake City. Friday marked only the second-ever meeting between UCLA and Colorado, while UCLA and Utah had already faced off previously this year, with the Bruins notching a 4-1 win during ITA Kick-Off Weekend in January.
New team and individual rankings were released on Tuesday and, as expected, the Bruins held on to the No. 1 ranking. Florida, Duke, USC and Miami round out the top 5. Stanford, which hosts UCLA on April 14, currently stands at No. 6. Individually, freshman Robin Anderson continues to be the team's highest-ranked singles player, checking in at No. 6. She is followed by: Chanelle Van Nguyen (No. 84), Pamela Montez (No. 87), Courtney Dolehide (No. 97), Kaitlin Ray (No. 103), McCall Jones (No. 105) and Skylar Morton (No. 116). Morton's return to the rankings means that once again UCLA has more singles players ranked than any other school in the country (7). UCLA's two ranked doubles teams are Dolehide and Montez at No. 9, followed by Anderson and Morton at No. 11. Complete rankings can be accessed by clicking HERE.
Men (@uclatennis)The fifth-ranked UCLA men (14-2) open up conference play on the road this week, traveling to the Pacific Northwest for matches against Oregon and No. 22 Washington. The Bruins start out the weekend in Eugene, facing Oregon (14-1) on Friday at 1:00 p.m. UCLA owns an 18-0 all-time record against Oregon, downing the Ducks, 7-0 last season at the LATC. The Bruins round out their road trip on Saturday in Seattle, taking on Washington (12-3) at 1:00 p.m. The Bruins lead that series 26-2, beating the Huskies, 5-2 last year in Los Angeles. Live scores and video of the match can be accessed by clicking HERE. Also, fans can follow the team's progress by visiting the team's twitter page: @uclatennis.
UCLA is coming off of a 7-0 victory over Loyola Marymount on Tuesday at the Los Angeles Tennis Center. After sweeping doubles play, the Bruins then won all six singles matches in straight sets. Clay Thompson and Maxime Tabatruong didn't surrender a single game in their singles matches, as both players won 6-0, 6-0 at court Nos. 1 and 6, respectively. Tuesday marked the collegiate debut for freshman Dennis Novikov, who teamed with Thompson to earn a win at No. 3 doubles before downing LMU's Nicholas Bjerke in singles 6-3, 6-3 at court No. 2. Novikov and Karue Sell, who arrived at UCLA on Tuesday evening, are two new additions to the team for the spring quarter.
The Bruins remained at No. 5 nationally in the latest ITA rankings released on Tuesday. Undefeated USC is the No. 1 team in the country followed by Ohio State, Georgia and Virginia. Senior Nick Meister is the team's highest-ranked player at No. 30. He is followed by: Adrien Puget (No. 51), Clay Thompson (No. 59) and Marcos Giron (No. 115). Meister and Puget are ranked No. 38 nationally in doubles. Complete rankings can be accessed by clicking HERE.
UCLA has just two more regular-season home matches remaining. The Bruins are scheduled to host No. 8 Stanford on Friday, April 13 and No. 12 Cal on Saturday, April 14. UCLA rounds out the regular season at USC on April 20.

October 02, 2007
The International Federation of Dental Educators and Associations named Dean Patrick J. Ferrillo, Jr., as the organization's 2007-2009 president during its annual meeting Sept. 5 in Dublin, Ireland. Ferrillo will lead the organization in its mission to improve global health by improving oral health.
IFDEA, a global organization consisting of dental educators from more than 900 dental schools worldwide, aims to improve oral health of the public through education, research and community service and patient care.
A key focus of Ferrillo's term as president will be the roll-out of IFDEA's flagship program: The Global Network for Dental Education. The Global Network for Dental Education is a web-based resource designed to share knowledge and facilitate a better understanding of issues of diversity and inequality in oral health care and education throughout the global dental education community. Mary McAleese, President of Ireland, founded the network at the concluding session of the Global Congress on Dental Education III in Dublin in September.
"By connecting the 900-plus dental schools around the globe, we will create opportunities to share knowledge and resource throughout the dental education community that were unimaginable just a few years ago," Ferrillo said. "This will help us to raise standards in dental education throughout the world, and ultimately to improve the provision and quality of oral health care globally."
A long-time dental educator and leader in organized dentistry, Ferrillo became dean of the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in 2006. Prior to joining Pacific, Ferrillo served as vice provost for the Division of Health Sciences and dean of the School of Dental Medicine at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. He served as president of the American Dental Education Association in 1999 and as chair of the ADEA Council of Deans in 1994.
Ferrillo is a fellow of both the American College of Dentists and the International College of Dentists. He is a graduate of Georgetown University and Baylor College of Dentistry, where he received his DDS degree and specialty training in endodontics.

Last year, Angels manager Mike Scioscia used 133 different lineups in 162 games, searching for some combination that could work.
His first inclination in 2011 would be to send out a lineup with Maicer Izturis and Bobby Abreu hitting 1-2 followed by Torii Hunter, Kendry Morales, Vernon Wells and Howie Kendrick in that order. Erick Aybar, Jeff Mathis (or Bobby Wilson) and Peter Bourjos are likely to line up in the bottom third.
"This is a template – on any given day, there are going to be different looks," Scioscia said.
The decision to bat Morales cleanup would sandwich him between two right-handed hitters (Hunter and Wells) and give the Angels two switch-hitters in the first four spots of their lineup (assuming Izturis is at leadoff).
"There's some positives to any way you're going to look at it and some things that might make us deeper," Scioscia said. "For balance, it's a great look to have Morales hitting fourth with Torii and Vernon around him. That means if they (opposing teams) want to switch him around (to bat right-handed), they still have a right-handed hitter behind him."
Hunter's slightly better on-base percentage (particularly in the past few seasons) gives him a slight edge over Wells to bat ahead of Morales.
"That is part of it," Scioscia said. "I think Torii's comfortable there (batting third). I think Torii has the talent and the package you're looking for from a guy who not only has to set the table a little bit (for the middle of the lineup) but also going first-to-third (on the bases), getting himself in (scoring) position."
The Angels' biggest problem might be the pairing of Mathis and Bourjos – both hit around .200 last year – creating a dead spot at the bottom of the lineup.
"If you only have guys in the middle of the lineup pressuring teams once every third inning, that doesn't get it done," Scioscia said. "We need a lineup that flows. We need a lineup that has a situational component along with depth.
"Our lineup is very clearly hinging on a number of guys to give us a little more production than they did last year and some of our youngsters to get into their offensive side."
Sports psychologist Ken Ravizza was in camp Tuesday and Wednesday meeting with groups of Angels players. Ravizza worked with the Angels from 1985 to 2000 and continued to work with several Angels on an individual basis over the past few years. Ravizza "has a nice process that can help a player to hopefully maintain a mental perspective that will help them perform at a high level," Scioscia said. ... The Angels will open the Cactus League schedule with a home-and-home weekend against the Dodgers on Saturday (in Tempe) and Sunday (in Glendale). Scioscia has not announced his pitching plans for the games yet. The Dodgers will start Hiroki Kuroda and Tim Redding.

The Birdman cometh — again. Baby, Cash Money Records' platinum-drenched co-CEO, is spreading his wings and getting back behind the mic for his sophomore set, Fast Money.
Due April 12, the album serves as the follow-up to his Birdman debut (see "Baby Ready To Unleash Balla Birdman With Help From P. Diddy, Cam'ron" ).
"I went back to the basics with this record," said Baby. "I just got with my peoples and did what we do. You can feel our vibe down bottom on this one.
"I'm more focused this time," he added. "I did the whole record at the crib. I wasn't traveling or caught in the rapture of it all — the money, the [sex], the bullsh–."
The Birdman's first single, "Shyne On," features fellow Cash Money MC Lil' Wayne. The video for the single, directed by Life Garland, features Wayne and a host of other Cash Money artists including Lil' Mo, KeKe Wyatt and 6 Shot.
"Before we was blinging, we was shining," explained Baby of the single. "That's just traditional slang for us down here, so I wanted to take it back a little bit."
Fast Money also includes guest appearances from Beenie Man and Mannie Fresh, among others. With the exception of Beenie, Baby said he wanted to keep things local. "I wanted artists from where I'm from," said Baby. "I wanted to keep our language and our slang down-bottom."
Baby's pride extends beyond his new disc to his label's roster. With a host of new acts on board — including 6 Shot, Wyatt and Lil' Mo — Baby sees Cash Money entering a new era.
"It's a great turning point for us in the game," said Baby. "What we did last year was just the beginning."

We want to say thanks to the Pet Place Veterinarians for their lengthy article Your Guide to Common Cat Poisoning, the resource for this series of abridged articles on pet poisoning items that are toxic and can seriously harm cat health. Protect your pet and see if your home has any of these common poisons laying around where your pet can get to them.
ABCs Guide to Cat Common Poisons- Be cat health aware.
The most frequent cases in veterinary emergency clinics is a pet poisoning. It's sad that nearly every day a cat who has eaten something toxic they shouldn't have eaten is rushed to the hospital for life-saving common poisons treatment.
It shouldn't be like this. A majority of the time pet owners don't even grasp that their homes have so many toxic things harmful to cat health. Be cat health aware.
The Pet Place Veterinarians have given us some important information about common poisons to help you protect your pet. This Fort Worth Cats Examiner article is the first in a series of articles that shares information about common poisons found in the average home. This Examiner ABCs series does not contain all of the information from the article, only some of the high points. Please take a look; it could save your cat's life.
Also be sure and watch the video on Plants That Are Toxic and Poisonous for Animals.. it has info on plants that are ok to grow inside around pets.
What to do first
Always be sure to keep all medications out of your cat's reach and keep trash cans covered.
There are literally hundreds of things your pet can gain access to. Some items are highly toxic and others are non-toxic. These ABCs articles are alphabetical subject guides to help you govern if a specific item is a common poisons problem and provide the ability to expand your access links to more in-depth material for cat health concerns.
The paramount thing to do, should you consider your pet may have experienced a poisioning or been in contact with or ingested a toxic item, is to check the label of the item you think your pet consumed. Read the information about toxicity. Frequently, but not every time, the information on packaging regarding children is relevant to cat health and some manufacturers even discuss pet toxicity.
If there is an 800 number on the package – call them! It is also recommended that you call your veterinarian to confirm the recommendations. If you go to your veterinarian, take all packaging and any information you have on the product.
The Pet Place Veterinarians suggest:
General Information. There is not much you can do at home for most poisoning. Call or visit your veterinarian or veterinary emergency facility if you think your pet has been poisoned. For some ingested poisons, your veterinarian may recommend inducing vomiting before bringing the pet in for examination and treatment. Inducing vomiting of a toxic substance should never be done unless specifically directed by a veterinarian. For topical exposures, bathing in lukewarm water with a mild dish soap can reduce further toxin absorption before the pet is examined and treated by a veterinarian.
Following is the first in a series of an abbreviated ABC listing of common cat poisoning item discussions. Please refer to the complete article source for an expanded version.
ABCs Guide to Common Cat Poisonings, A-G
Amitraz. Amitraz … insecticide used in … dog tick collars and topical solutions. Toxicity most often affects cats who have a dog tick collar placed on them but can also occur if a cat licks the tick collar on the dog. … symptoms begin within about 2 to 6 hours of ingestion … begin with cat becoming weak and lethargic. Vomiting, diarrhea and disorientation … common. Without treatment, coma may result. …severe untreated cases, toxicity may result in death.
Antifreeze. Ethylene glycol toxicosis …a type of poisoning … occurs after ingestion of antifreeze … containing ingredient ethylene glycol. Ethylene glycol itself is not toxic, but it is metabolized in the animal's body to several extremely toxic chemicals that are responsible for its potentially lethal effects. Ethylene glycol poisoning … nervous system abnormalities and severe kidney failure with almost complete cessation of urine output. … can be fatal if not treated soon after ingestion (within 4 to 8 hours). Cats are more susceptible to ethylene glycol poisoning than dogs (i.e. smaller amounts are required to cause poisoning). … minimum lethal dose for a cat is 1.5 milliliters of antifreeze per kilogram of body weight. … a teaspoonful can be lethal to a 7 pound cat.
Aspirin. Aspirin toxicity (salicylate toxicity) … poisoning occurs following ingestion of aspirin or aspirin-containing products. Cats and young animals are more susceptible to the effects of aspirin than are dogs because they are unable to metabolize the drug as quickly. Aspirin interferes with platelets… responsible for helping the blood to clot. Disruption of platelet function increases amount of time it takes blood to clot after cut. Spontaneous bleeding may occur causing pinpoint bruises in skin and gums (petechiae). Aspirin toxicity may cause gastrointestinal problems, respiratory difficulties, neurological problems, bleeding disorders and kidney failure. If accidental ingestion… remove remaining pills. Take your cat to a veterinarian as soon as possible for treatment.
Arsenic. Although a common poison in the days of Agatha Christie, arsenic is somewhat difficult to obtain and animal poisonings are rare. Usually, poisoning is due to the ingestion of very old insect traps. Since 1989, the use of arsenic in insect traps has diminished but still some out there. … lethal dose is 1 to 25 mg per kilogram of weight and poisoning signs include severe vomiting, diarrhea and nausea. If caught early, most pets are treated and recover.
Bathroom Cleaners, Bleach, Lysol and Other Corrosives. Household cleaners can cause very serious "chemical burns." … chemicals are ingested or licked causing a caustic or corrosive burn affecting tongue and upper esophagus. … immediately flush mouth with large amounts of water. . .helps reduce amount of chemical in the mouth and reduces damage. Chemical oral burns may not show up immediately. Call veterinarian for additional treatment. Common signs include: lack of appetite, drooling, pawing at mouth… excessive swallowing.
Carbon Monoxide. Carbon monoxide … odorless, colorless gas … when absorbed into bloodstream, forms compound causes hypoxia (reduced oxygen supply) of the heart and brain. Pets can be exposed by automotive exhaust in a closed garage, faulty exhaust system, non-vented furnace, gas water heater, gas/kerosene space heater and/or smoke inhalation from a fire. Some pets predisposed to toxicity due to preexisting heart or lung disease.Toxicity symptoms include drowsiness, lethargy, weakness, incoordination, bright red color to the skin and gums, difficulty breathing, coma and/or abrupt death. Sometimes, chronic (low-grade, long-term) exposure causes exercise intolerance, changes in gait (walking), and disturbances of reflexes.
Carbamate Insecticides. Carbamates … type of insecticides to treat insects on crops and soils, prevent and treat flea infestations … used in ant and roach baits. Majority of toxicities are due to improper use of the chemical and when different types of insecticides are used. The dog formula should never be used on cats. Carbamates affect nerve-muscle junctions. Muscle function is impaired without normal nerve impulse through muscle. … Various signs seen if pet exposed to toxic levels of this insecticide since muscle tissue present in intestinal tract, heart and skeleton. Symptoms include: vomiting, diarrhea, drooling, difficulty breathing, muscles tremors, twitching, weakness and paralysis. Prompt veterinary care is required to survive a toxic exposure.
Chocolate. Chocolate, in addition to having a high fat content, contains caffeine and theobromine. These two compounds are nervous system stimulants and can be toxic to your dog in high amounts but is rarely a problem in cats due to their more "discriminating" palate. … levels of caffeine and theobromine vary between different types of chocolate. … white chocolate has lowest concentration of stimulants and baking chocolate or cacao beans have highest concentration. However if enough is eaten and depending on the type of chocolate ingested and the amount eaten, various problems can occur. … high fat content in chocolate may result in vomiting and possibly diarrhea. Stimulant effect apparent once toxic levels eaten. May notice restlessness, hyperactivity, muscle twitching, increased urination, possibly excessive panting. Heart rate and blood pressure levels may also be increased. Seizure activity may occur in severe cases.
Cocaine. … rapidly absorbed from stomach, nasal passages and lungs. Following exposure cocaine usually leaves system in four to six hours. Pets exposed to cocaine show signs of intermittent hyperactivity followed by profound lethargy. Some develop seizures. Treatment aimed at supporting body systems. Inducing vomiting not helpful as cocaine rapidly absorbed. Hospitalization with intravenous fluids and sedatives are typical treatments. Depending on the severity of illness, amount ingested and time elapsed before treatment, some pets exposed to cocaine do not survive.
Detergents and Soaps. Most are generally non-toxic. Can expect vomiting and small amount of diarrhea from eating a non-food item. Read container for information. If ingestion is spotted, flush mouth with large amounts of water.
Easter Lily. The Easter lily plant is highly toxic to cats. Chewing on just a few leaves can result in serious illness. Cats first stop eating, begin vomiting and progress to lethargy and coma. Unknown toxic substance in Easter lily ultimately causes kidney failure. Untreated cats often do not survive. Treated early, kidney failure may be reversible, cat can do well if hospitalized on intravenous fluids for 1 to 2 days.
Estrogen Toxicity. … condition in which group of estrogen compounds (female hormones), either produced in excess within body or administered from outside, turn out to be poisonous to the body. Estrogen toxicity is seen most commonly in reproductive-age females and aged males. Symptoms can include: lethargy, pale gums, bleeding, fever, thin hair coat and feminization (female sex characteristics) in males.
Ethanol. … an alcohol used commonly as solvent (liquid that dissolves) in medications and is major component of alcoholic beverages. Common causes of toxicity …direct access to alcoholic beverages or spilled medication, ingestion of fermented products (bread), intentional or malicious administration by human beings, and/or dermal (skin) exposure to these products. Toxicity causes variety of signs, and may lead to death. Signs can include: odor of alcohol on the animal's breath or stomach contents, incoordination, staggering, behavioral change, excitement or depression, excessive urination and/or urinary incontinence, slow respiratory rate, cardiac arrest and death. If you believe pet has ingested form of ethanol, call veterinarian..
Glow Jewelry. … most glow jewelry and other glow-in-the-dark products contain active ingredient dibutyl phthalate. This substance has low toxicity and there has not been a report of an animal poisoned by its ingestion. If pet has ingested dibutyl phthalate, encourage him to drink a small amount of milk, tuna juice or canned cat food. … helps to dilute taste of dibutyl phthalate. …rinsing mouth out with water can reduce signs associated with glow jewelry exposure… after rinsing mouth, may want to bathe pet to remove any dibutyl that may have leaked out of the tooth marks and onto the pet's hair coat.

Sarah Palin spoke at the Western Conservative Summit in Denver Colorado on 19 July 2014. After some amusing opening comments. Among those comments were some observations about the Attorney General, Eric Holder. He had made some disparaging remarks about her earlier this week after she called for the impeachment of the President. She noted his rather shady record in law enforcement, and the contempt charges that Congress had levied against Eric Holder.
Palin then turned her attention to the President. One particularly amusing and insightful comment about Obama meeting with the very "Crony Capitalists" that he disparages in his rhetoric, was that when he dines with these Crony Capitalist, the forgotten man is often on the menu. She used FDR's forgotten man to briefly build the case for conservatism and impeachment. She highlighted how college students, veterans, political activist, minorities, and legal citizens have become part of the forgotten man during the Obama years. She explained how conservatism, as articulated by Ronald Reagan and others could save the nation's future prosperity.
From there, she expounded on the need to impeach the President. The same "monarchy" them that Don Young had asserted in Congress regarding the EPA's treatment of Alaska could be found in many of her examples, but she went far beyond the EPA and the abuses of administrative agencies. She took the President solidly to task on a variety of issues. She also took to task those who decry the President's abuses by asking, "So what are you going to do about it."
In addition to Obama, Palin chided those who say that first we need to get past the election before any action is taken against Obama. "Been there, done that in 2010," she aptly observed, and discussed the need to use the Constitutional remedies for a President engaged in the sort of lawless behavior of the current administration. That constitutional remedy for a President who commits high crimes and misdemeanors is clearly impeachment. If Obama isn't impeachable, no one is. "We don't do Kings," she quipped. "Impeachment is a tool in the toolbox..." to hold this imperial President accountable. She reminded the crowd they have a pen and a phone and to use it to urge those in power to impeach the President.
While there are some light-hearted moments, the speech is full of red meat. It was an excellent speech and well received by the crowd.

TALK OF IMPEACHMENT is an empty gesture untill the GOP captures the Senate. It's in the Senate that an impeachment trial is heard. And as long as Harry Reid controls the Senate, there won't be an impeachment trial there. I've told Gov. Palin this. I like her. She's a strong conservative voice. But she simply ignores the fact. It leads me to believe that she's just another office seeker, looking for the presidential job and holding onto whatever device she can use to gain attention. Unfortunately, I believe she's alienated too many people to even be considered for a place on any national ticket. I hope I'm wrong but that's my reading on this politician. Best always, John R.
Unless the GOP is guaranteed 22 DemocRAT votes FOR conviction, it's a waste of time to try and impeach at this point, it takes 68 VOTES FOR Impeachment--that's 22 more votes than seats the GOP holds in the Senate. It would be best to wait until AFTER the November elections, especially to save the GOP's chances of taking over the Senate, gain larger majority in the House before it should even be considered. By the time the NEW Congress is sworn in Jan 12, I think is the date, the GOP would have TWO years of control over both Houses of Congress--with the RATS in DemocRAT party all but OUT of power--they may be willing to consider the necessary votes to remove Obama IF that's what they believe will help them regain respect and votes for the '16 election cycle. You just can't imagine how they DON'T want to be forced into a presidential election in '16 with the prospect of NOT being able to win back either House of Congress.
Debrajoe Smith-Beatty; Yes you right Between Obama, and Holder, and Reid, the USA is being held politically hostage!
Donald C. Vice; YES. Your right timing is everything, but we need to get our "ducks-in-a-row", so to speak.
Until then, we need to continue to hammer away at all the Obama administrations shameless shams, and political agendas!
I sympathize with everything Sarah has to say. We do NOT, however, have time for "impeachment"! The Thug in
Question is not even qualified for the office. To remove this foreign CRIMINAL and ENEMY of the State who occupies the WH illegally in the first place, we need only to go for the most expedient "tool" provided, that is:
QUO WARRANTO!" That legal process does not have to be strained through Congress at all. It is designed
specifically so that We the People can move directly through the Courts to arrest, try, and incarcerate a unfit Criminal from public office. We should wait for NOTHING. Indeed, we need to act on this process right NOW!
By the way, I'd love to see Palin for President.
I don't believe Harry Reid is senile...he's as evil as the Obamanation. Nancy Pelosi is dumb as a doorknob, but wants the same as the other two. Sarah Palin is the one who can do the job and she's right. Impeachment is the way to go, however, I too think that now is not the time if we truly want him out of office. The Senate would beat us to death and absolutely wouldn't vote to convict unless there was a majority of GOP conservatives holding seats in the Senate, and you can bet I'm praying for that! I'm also hoping that Sarah get more involved i in the political scene than she is now. I'd love to see her run for office...she'd get my vote for sure. It would be nice to see an honest politician holding office for a change!
Impeachment? Yes. but not just yet! It will not only go no where in the Senate but the Media will beat the GOP to death with it in time for the November elections to solidify the Senate once again for Harry Reed and hurt GOP chances to increase House membership. It cannot be won now so attack the big "O" and his failed policies and his failed leadership---pound them on this and win seats in November and then knock Obama, and Holder off with impeachment with the votes to do it! Time it correctly and it can be done.
Sarah Palin is a national treasure.
There just seems like there should be a way to control the border, weed out the chaf and allow in those who are truly in need so that America can continue to stand on a hill. Have faith based groups help the children who really need our help. And send the criminals back to where they came from. First step is to control the borders then develop a plan of aid by including all groups.
Shes a down to earth woman. Shes not a soccer mom, sitting on the sidelines.
Shes out there on the field . Shes out there telling we the players can win this
game if we play united. Moms arn't suspose to be Rabble Rousers This one
talks the talk and walks the talk. Yes, she needs a position in tomorrows
upcoming administration.

College Hockey:Warriors Do Their Part For Sixth Place
Despite Loss, UML Can Leapfrog Merrimack Saturday
LOWELL, Mass. — For Massachusetts-Lowell and Merrimack, facing off on Thursday night, one would have figured that playoff positioning between those two clubs would be decided.
That rationale, though, didn't take into account that Merrimack freshman goaltender Jim Healey's career-high 48 saves, helping the Warriors salvage a 3-3 tie with the River Hawks, leaving the question, "Who will finish sixth in Hockey East?" up in the air for another two days.
"It was painfully obvious we deserved better than a tie in this game," said Lowell head coach Blaise MacDonald. "Teams that work hard get a lot of puck luck and [Merrimack] certainly had its fair share of that tonight."
Indeed the Warriors were graced with a bit of good fortune, including running into Lowell netminder John Yaros (24 saves) on a cold night. That, combined with Healey's polar-opposite play at the other end of the ice, was enough to salvage the tie.
The tie leaves Merrimack one point ahead of Lowell for the coveted sixth place. Finishing in sixth avoids a trip to Maine for next weekend's opening round of the Hockey East playoffs. Lowell still has a chance to pass Merrimack, by beating Providence on the road Saturday.
The positioning that is at stake would seem critical, but the two teams have different views.
"Maine is a tough place to go and play, with the atmosphere that is surrounding them," said Merrimack associate head coach Mike Doneghey, who filled in for head coach Chris Serino in the postgame press conference while Serino made a quick exit to see his three sons play in the State Schoolboy tournament at nearby Chelmsford Arena. "I can't remember the last time Merrimack won up there."
MacDonald, though, would welcome the Black Bears.
"I'd love to play Maine," said MacDonald, who joked that getting away to Orono would get him some sleep. "I just wish we could play them in Portland, [Maine,] so we wouldn't have to travel so far."
Friday began with a scoreless first period. With Lowell outshooting the Warriors, 12-4, the River Hawks were able to take territorial control of the game, something they would hold throughout.
The second period was a wild antithesis of the first, with Merrimack striking for three goals to Lowell's pair.
Lowell scored first when Bobby Robbins left a perfect drop pass that Jason Tejchma buried for his eighth goal of the season at 1:58.
Merrimack, though, responded quickly, when Mike Alexiou feathered a soft wrister that somehow squeaked between the pads of Yaros just 18 seconds later to even the score at one.
The Warriors took their first lead of the game at 5:20 when Nick Pomponio made a perfect redirection of a Rob LaLonde shot from the right point on the power play.
Similarly, Lowell answered immediately. Andrew Martin, who was questionable to play up until the last minute after a neck injury against Maine last Saturday, stole the puck from Alexiou at behind the net at the right post, moved around to the left post and wrapped a shot that Healey couldn't reach at 6:18 to tie the game at two.
Late in the period, Matt Johnson gave Merrimack back the lead. After collecting an Eric Pedersen shot that hit the left post, Johnson clanged a second bid off the same post before finally lifting a third shot over a sprawling Yaros for the 3-2 lead.
The River Hawks dominated the game's final period but save after save by Healey made it appear the trek to Maine might be on the dockets. That was until Elias Godoy fired home his team-leading 18th goal of the season through a major screen to even with 7:09 remaining.
From there, the River Hawks had opportunity after opportunity, but that puck luck that MacDonald mentioned didn't come their way.
Never was the more apparent than in the closing minutes of regulation when Brad King picked up a loose puck, walked in on the left wing side and pushed a shot between the pads of Healey. The puck trickled just wide of the far post, preserving the 3-3 score and leaving travel plans unmade, at least for a couple more days.
Merrimack closes the season at 11-17-6, 6-12-6 in Hockey East. Should the Warriors hold on to sixth place, it will be their best finish since fifth in 1996-97.
That, though, isn't in Merrimack's hands now.
"It would've been nice to control our own destiny on where we're going," said Doneghey. "Now I have to go watch another game Saturday night to find out where we're going."

I've come across a creative use of Gronwall's lemma which I would like to submit to the community. I suspect that the argument, while leading to a correct conclusion, is somewhat flawed.
We have a continuous mapping $g \colon \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ such that
$$\tag{1} \forall \varepsilon>0\ \exists \delta(\varepsilon)>0\ \text{s.t.}\ \lvert x \rvert \le \delta(\varepsilon) \Rightarrow \lvert g(x) \rvert \le \varepsilon \lvert x \rvert$$
and a continuous trajectory $x\colon [0, +\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ such that
$$\tag{2} e^{\alpha t}\lvert x(t)\rvert \le \lvert x_0\rvert+\int_0^t e^{\alpha s}\lvert g(x(s))\rvert\, ds. $$
Here $x_0=x(0)$ is the initial datum, which we may choose small as we wish, but $\alpha >0$ is a fixed constant that we cannot alter in any way.
Now comes the point. Fix $\varepsilon>0$. The lecturer says: Suppose we can apply (1) for all times $t \ge 0$. Then inserting (1) in (2) we get
$$e^{\alpha t}\lvert x(t) \rvert \le \lvert x_0\rvert + \varepsilon \int_0^t e^{\alpha s} \lvert x(s)\rvert \, ds$$
and from Gronwall's lemma we infer
$$\tag{3} \lvert x(t)\rvert \le e^{(\varepsilon - \alpha)t}\lvert x_0\rvert.$$
So if $\varepsilon <\alpha$ and $\lvert x_0 \rvert < \delta(\varepsilon)$, $\lvert x(s) \rvert$ is small at all times and our use of (1) is justified. We conclude that inequality (3) holds.
Does this argument look correct to you? I believe that the conclusion is correct, but that it requires more careful treatment.
Thank you.

Vote 123!
2011-02-25 10:00:00
The news this week has been all about election day and encouraging everyone to exercise their right to vote and go down to their local polling stations on Friday. Although I prefer to remain neutral when talking publicly about the election I can't stress enough how important it is that everyone votes. I'll be down to my local polling station as soon as I get a chance today and I'll be making sure my colleagues take the time to do the same! As it is all about voting this week, I'm sure you know that we at the Carlton Hotel Group always like to get in on the action. At our recent marketing meeting I had heard the team mention an idea about a voting offer and I must admit I'm impressed with what they came up with. Playing on the 'vote 123' campaigns around the country we launched 'vote 123 for Carlton hotels' and are offering an amazing package for only €123 per person.
I was all about rugby last week so I thought I'd take a break from sports this week and give you some in-house news instead. The Carlton Atlantic Coast Hotel had some new photography taken of their Ayurveda spa this week which turned out amazing. The photographer was so impressed with the results that he intends to post it on a great hotel photography blog which is great news for the hotel. Also this week we had a new addition to our sales team in the Carlton Dublin Airport Hotel in the form of Alison Reilly. Alison was the apprentice candidate for the Carlton Group and was hired to cover maternity leave in central reservations. Now that her maternity cover is finished she has joined the sales team in the Carlton Hotel Dublin Airport and I wish her the best of luck in her new role.
I was sent a nice reminder of last year's Rose of Tralee festival this week when I received a letter from Leanne, our Junior Director. Leanne won a competition to be a Junior Director in the Carlton Hotel Group and as part of her prize she received a computer and tickets to the Rose of Tralee. Her thoughtful letter was sent just to thank me for the prize and the tickets and definitely made a pleasant change to the usual post I receive!
I know I said I wouldn't mention sport this week but just as a final note I would like to wish Ireland the best of luck in their game against Scotland this weekend!

I dont know whats wrong with My Ubuntu but my top panel was gone its proper look .Help me to restore it . i am giving you the sample image .
It's possible that the theme is using a smaller set of icons because of the thickness of the bar, or the icon theme got changed for the theme,if changing themes does not work try changing the icon theme for the theme or changing out individual icons in that theme. So here is an example using the default "Ambiance" theme.
So your icons look similar to this, worse in your case.
Next with that information navigate to
This is where the status icons are, so then you need to select what pixel size your theme is using, from 16, 22, and 24. since your theme turned ugly it may be possible that it is using the 16 pixel icons.
But since you have a wired icon I don't think this is the case, For example the 16 folder does not contain
You can then use
Since it seems that all your icons are dark, I would suggest changing the icon theme from
Hopefully this will give you the basics so you can make your icons look however you want.

May 19, 2012
The Howard Theater was packed with the beautiful and powerful people of Washington, DC. Around the room you see Young Urban Professionals; drinks and food being poured and served at excessive levels. Even before understanding the history of the Howard Theater, you can feel the regality and legacy of the building, even with its new 20 foot flat-screen monitors on each side of the stage.
Folks in the room had no idea what they were to witness in just a few short minutes. Grammy Award nominated Bilal Oliver, one of the most eclectic and talented artists of this generation was set to grace the stage of the Howard Theater. DMV'ers in their Sunday best, hoping for a quiet and relaxing evening were pleasantly surprised by the DJ Biggs set. Playing everything from New Edition to Beyonce, DJ Biggs did more than warm up the crowd. His audio tribute to Whitney, Michael, Luther, James Brown, and Chuck left the audience shaking their heads, wiping tears, and waving their hands. The room was prepared for Bilal, produced by Jill Newman Productions.
Bilal enters the stage in all-black with black shades to match, adding to his enigmatic persona. He begins the show with "Make Me Over," a funk highlight from his unreleased album "Love for Sale." You could literally scan the crowd and pick out the people that have never seen Bilal perform. In short; his performances are perfectly and legendarily bizarre. No show is ever the same; nor does he perform a song in the same way - EVER. His manic and unpredictable shows are artistic showcases of his tremendous talent. His voice needs to be studied for range, texture, and impeccable pitch. Rarely does Bilal miss a note.
Each Bilal show is something to classify in your brain under the "Epic" category. Bilal, produced By Jill Newman Productions, did not disappoint, and the Ebony article was on point; it was indeed fire. The highlight of the show came when Bilal and his band paid special tribute to DC legend Chuck Brown, by mixing "Something to Hold on to" with the classic Chuck Brown anthem "Bustin' Loose." That was a very special moment and should go directly into Howard Theater history. And as always, Bilal's soul stirring performance of "Sometimes" left grown men close to tears. OK, maybe that was just me. Either way, his effortless vocals were the highlight of his show, as always.

When the Ford Mustang was introduced at the World's Fair in New York in April of '64, it was clearly something special. Little did Ford know that the long-hood, short-deck styling would prove to be successful beyond their wildest dreams. In essence, the Mustang changed the car industry by establishing a new car segment: the pony car.
Though it was based on previous platforms featuring suspension and interior components from other Ford vehicles (namely the Falcon), the Mustang wasn't just another reboot. Affordable and stylish, the Mustang had everything going for it at the right time. Bucket seats were standard fare and a long list of options awaited customers at the dealerships. Three body styles were initially produced: convertible, fastback, and coupe (sometimes referred as a notchback).
The Mustang was more than transportation. It was an image, a movement. Baby boomers from World War II vet families had spoken, ordering hundreds of thousands within a scant few months. General Motors, along with all its subsequent divisions, had no match to the new-found pony car market. By the time Chevrolet released the Camaro (and its Pontiac cousin, the Firebird) in late '66, the Mustang had already been in production for several years with well over a million* units sold (*according to official records, 1,288,557 through '66).
Throughout the years the Ford Mustang has routinely been at the top of the pony car sales race. It has continually evolved and changed with the times. More importantly, it has never been out of production.
Today the Mustang is revered for its enduring styling, performance pedigree and longevity. The most popular Mustangs models are the '64-'72 iterations. Though not as admired as its forbearers, the '74-'78 Mustang IIs have a devoted, if not loyal, following. Fox-bodies 'Stangs of the 3rd-gen class ('79-'93) are admired for their huge aftermarket support and lightweight platform. The 4th-gen cars ('94-'04) and the retro-infused 5th-gen ('05-'14) reap the benefits of plenty of refinements in research and technology, making these Mustangs the most efficient yet powerful models to date.
The 6th-gen 2015 Mustang is set to be released in late-2014. Features include an independent rear suspension wrapped in a more international design style.

Summary: Intel has confirmed that it will work with Comcast so future chips will be able to stream live television without the need for a set-top box.
Intel has confirmed it has partnered with Comcast so the company's future chips will be able to stream live television without the need for additional hardware.
Future hardware containing Intel's chipsets will be able to stream live and on-demand Xfinity cable programming without a set-top box. The service will be made possible due to what Intel describes as a "video gateway," a chip component based on an Intel Atom core -- complete with Puma Silicon -- that acts as gatekeeper to authenticate access with a broadcast provider.
Demonstrated at the Consumer Electronics Show 2013, Intel showed how Xfinity streaming from an XG5 multi-screen video gateway could be transferred to an IP set-top box as well as directly to consumer gadgets. Intel says that the service will be compatible with Intel-based all-in-one PCs, tablets, smartphones and smart TV sets.
The XG5 multi-screen video gateway has been designed by communications firm Arris, the recent purchaser of the Motorola Home set-top box business. It is able to connect any home screen to a network via MoCA, DECT and Wi-Fi, creating a multi-screen video gateway for your favorite program.
Steve Reynolds, senior vice president of Customer Premise Equipment for Comcast commented:
"Intel has been a great partner as we work to develop a platform that supports an in-home gateway and client architecture. Intel's powerful silicon platforms and their support for our RDK software initiative have enabled us to quickly develop a flexible platform for the delivery of our cable video services that will give customers the ability to view them on a wide range of consumer devices in the home."
The new technology will be based on DLNA Premium Content Guidelines in order to eventually offer live television streaming on Intel-based devices in homes worldwide. There is currently no news on this working remotely, but the idea may be something Intel will eventually pitch to other broadcasters.
from cnet
There should be way more press on this.
With this "video gateway", who needs a set top box. From any connected device you will be able to watch live tv...this is an absolutely killer idea. Intel doesn't need to make an deals with content providers. However the future of tv plays out, whether a-la-carte or how it is now, Intel is guarantee to be making money from it. If Intel patents this, all SoC makers will have to license from Intel.
The other thing that can come out of this is the All-in-one systems will become TV systems. Who needs an Apple TV then? And if TV can be watched from any connected device, watching TV becomes as ubiquitous as the internet. This means data centers will need to be upgraded, with Intel servers, to support the increase in video streaming.
bacbacker, thanks for the info. very good.

Brown recipient of Teaching Development Grant
3/12/2007 —A problem solving partnership between students of Dr. Kathy Taylor Brown's Communication 471 course and Blue Roof Technologies will be supported by a teaching development grant recently secured by Dr. Brown.
Blue Roof Technologies, a non-profit corporation based in McKeesport, uses innovation and technology in the construction of senior citizen housing within the Mon Valley. Smart houses, developed by the company, adapt to the owner's needs and requirements. These homes are single family retirement cottages which are ADA (American Disabilities Act) compliant, affordable, energy efficient, and are wired to monitor the living conditions of the seniors, keeping track of their medical conditions and their overall safety.
The Teaching Development Grant secured by Brown, will support COMM 471 in promoting a participatory culture which will enhance the scope and effectiveness of the course curriculum. The course, will use "intergenerational mentoring, " giving students the opportunity to plan, design and develop several training videos and a public relations kit as part of a four-stage senior training program. In addition, Penn State Greater Allegheny students will produce audio/video pod casting and maintain a blog site focusing on their partnership experiences with the seniors.
The partnership between Blue Roof Technologies and Penn State Greater Allegheny includes the mentoring of Greater Allegheny interns from both the Corporate Communications and the Information Sciences and Technology programs, Three student interns are currently involved in this program.
Dr. Brown will be overseeing the campus' new minor in Civic and Community Engagement. She hopes her proposal for COMM 471 will be an effective way of launching the program by supporting student involvement with faculty, the university and the community. To date, students who have participated in service learning with Civic and Community engagement have assessed their experiences positively, reporting satisfaction with being able to apply the information learned in their courses to solve community problems. In the partnership with Blue Roof Technologies, Penn State Greater Allegheny students will help to train senior citizens in the use of computers and technology, making them more comfortable in the Smart House environment provided by Blue Roof, and hopefully, allowing them to continue living independently within their own homes.

It's not his fault he was taught to be a d-bag.
Suh got $100k fine for something far less ominous looking than what Davis did. It's a travesty that he didn't get kicked out of the game. Dude has no class and Mack has less class for trying to defend it.
Since the whole football world has seen that video, they know the score.
Mikey, it's probably a good idea to shut up and own up. That's what grown-ups do.
thats terrible, he needs to be suspended.
Well the whistle didn't blow until well after the fumble, and ISU had possession and was about to take it all the way for a TD.
Never mind. Different play...

The Lincoln Theatre presents a reading of UMD English Professor Michael Olmert's Moving the Chains: The Darryl Hill Story, the first African American football player in the ACC.
MOVING THE CHAINS: The Darryl Hill Story
Performance 7:45 pm
$35 – VIP Preferred Seating & Reception
(First 75 tickets)
$25 – General Seating
$10 – University of Maryland Students
(Box office only)
Washington, DC's historic Lincoln Theatre, in association with Theater J, proudly presents a dramatic reading of Michael Olmert's stirring new play, Moving the Chains: The Darryl Hill Story on Monday, March 21, at the Lincoln Theatre.
Maryland English Professor of the Practice, Michael Olmert '80, an Emmy Award-Winning writer, captures the story of the first African American football player in the ACC in 1963 -- a Terrapin, Darryl Hill. A 1965 Maryland graduate, Hill was known as the Jackie Robinson of Southern college football.
The year was 1963. A young college athlete made history by becoming the first African-American on the University of Maryland football team and in the Atlantic Coast Conference. His name was Darryl Hill.
Moving the Chains is a story of breaking barriers in 1960's Jim Crow America, a world that once refused even to allow Hill's mother entrance into the segregated stadium to watch her son gain the title of "the Jackie Robinson of College Football."
Moving the Chains is also the story of an enduring friendship that overcame the barriers of race and religion as Hill bonded with his Jewish teammate Jerry Fishman, who more than any other understood discrimination in his own terms. "People weren't ashamed to call you a Jew or use the 'n' word," Fishman said. "And people didn't bat an eye if they heard it." They called themselves "the onlys."
The performance will be followed by a Q & A with leading sports figures and journalists. Moving the Chains is part of the Lincoln Theatre's BACKSTAGE AT THE LINCOLN series of play readings addressing historic and contemporary issues in African-American life. The series is jointly sponsored with the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. For more information visit www.lovethelincoln.com or call 202-328-6000.
**This is an exclusive Lincoln Theatre event – seating is limited. **

MORE: Your protagonist, Portia, an admissions officer, recruits students who are not cookie-cutter Ivy League types, as if she's trying to put together a great dinner party.
Korelitz: We have preconceived ideas about admissions officers — that they love to say no. When I interviewed the dean of admissions at Middlebury College, I asked him what kind of person goes into admissions. I was surprised when he said, without hesitating, "We are all do-gooders. We're out to find great kids."
MORE: What do you think is the biggest mistake parents make?
Korelitz: It sounds awful, but caring too much. My generation seems to be raising its kids as a science project — with constant stimulation. Personally, I find it much more compelling to read about a 17-year-old who is passionate about one thing and less important that they also play tennis, volunteer at the animal shelter, and tutor neighborhood kids.
MORE: Your teenage daughter is gearing up to apply for college. What tips do you have for her?
Korelitz: Don't just apply to the places that people speak of admiringly. There are schools you may never have heard of that might be perfect for you. More than anything else, don't attach your sense of self-worth to whether a handful of colleges admit you.
MORE: How effective are those high-priced coaches who help kids fill out applications?
Korelitz: Admissions officers are deeply suspicious of them. If they sense that a coach is involved, it's a huge turnoff. There is no buying your way in. There is no secret handshake. There is certainly not, as Gossip Girl recently implied, a dean's question that kids have to answer correctly at a cocktail party.
Originally published in MORE magazine, April 2009.
Q&A: Admit One Student (and Parent)
Jean Hanff Korelitz researched her richly detailed fourth novel, Admission, by interviewing deans and working as a part-time Princeton application reader. Here, Korelitz, 47 and a mother of two, offers a peek behind the scenes at elite schools.

Thought it would be interesting to take up a hobby that my friends don't know how to do. Saw crochet classes at the senior center and took it up. Very helpful ladies. Originally from Los Angeles, moved to Houston about 4 years ago. Mostly crochet projects to give away as gifts to my hubby and other loved ones. I hope to someday be ballsy enough to make a pattern of my own.

For most people, spending time and money taking of the family vehicle is fairly low on the list of daily priorities. Not keeping up with car maintenance, however, can cost a person hundreds or even thousands of dollars in maintenance costs, not to mention the time taken off work and Fortunately, there are some ways to save time and money and help ensure that your car lasts longer if you're willing to make a few changes to your routine.
Start by keeping up with regular car maintenance. Each car has an owner's manual with a schedule of when to take your car in for routine maintenance such as tire rotation, oil changes, and fluid refills. While dealerships will charge several hundred dollars to do these things as part of a maintenance package, odds are you can do most of them yourself for fairly cheap. For the remaining procedures, ask a local mechanic what he or she would charge.
For example, think about a routine maintenance procedure like tire rotation. Doing this makes the tires last longer because it allows the tires to wear out evenly, essentially adding a thousands more miles to the life of your tires. At a dealership, this can cost around $60. All that this service is, however, is taking the tires off the car and moving them around the car so that the front tires end up in the back, and vice-versa. Save some money by doing this yourself or with a friend in an afternoon. It will probably take about two hours, and is the work equivalent of changing four flat tires. To save some time and effort, see if your area has a public auto shop with a car lift. While you're changing the tires, be sure to check the air pressure, and use an air machine to inflate them if needed.
Also be sure to change and refill the fluids in your car on a regular basis. This will typically cost between $40 and $200 at a mechanic shop depending on the fluids that need to be changed, but fortunately this is probably one of the easiest things to do yourself. Make sure you have enough anti-freeze, windshield washing fluid and engine coolant every time you change your car's oil. These fluids are essential to extending the life of everything from your windshield wipers to your engine.
Your car needs an oil change at least once a year, even if you haven't put enough miles on the car to meet the standards required by your car's manufacturer on when to change the oil. Learn to do this service yourself, or look for specials on this service at your local automotive mechanic's shop in order to save money. All of the other fluids can be purchased fairly cheaply from your local auto parts store, and replacing them requires you to take off the cap and pour.
The best thing you can do to maintain the longevity of your car, however, it to treat it well. Accelerating quickly and slamming the brakes will do the most damage to a vehicle. Avoid taking your car off road, and keep it protected from extreme temperature by housing it in a garage whenever possible.
While it can be tempting to try to do everything on your vehicle by yourself, it's generally a good idea to visit a professional mechanic when a larger maintenance issue does come up. Doing a repair that you have no experience with can result in you further damaging the car. Of course, know exactly what your car needs before visiting the shop, and don't be afraid to negotiate with the mechanic to get a good deal.

Arrival Experience: Located in The Squaire, directly next to sibling Hilton Frankfurt Airport, the value-focused Hilton Garden Inn is an incredible score for travelers at one of Europe's busiest air fields. Until this duo of hotels opened, the Sheraton was the only hotel connected to the airport and charged dearly for the convenience and privilege of staying there. Now that travelers can walk directly from the airport to the Hilton Garden Inn, high rates are a thing of the past. Guests can even purchase day rates here if they want to take a nap or catch a quick shower on longer layovers. It only takes five minutes to get to the front desk from the main terminal via a covered walkway with moving sidewalks, and there is no need to walk outside (important on cold winter days). The staff is friendly and speaks English fluently. They are used to having guests arrive early or simply walk in hoping to make a reservation and do their best to assist everyone swiftly.
Dining: The hotel has its own restaurant, which serves a breakfast buffet beginning at 6am for those with early flights. Light lunch and dinner are also on the menu, but many guests may choose to purchase something from the hotel's pantry offering drinks, snacks, and other munchies. A small bar appeals to tipplers, but guests can also head into the livelier Hilton lobby to enjoy the bar and café menu on offer.
Accommodations: Guest rooms follow the same atrium concept as at the Hilton with half the rooms facing the interior atrium of the shopping and office complex with the rest looking outward. Rooms facing the highway and forest are especially popular as they are along the approach path for the airport's newest runway offering plenty of aviation geek action throughout the day. Planes are seen on approach with an up-close view. Luckily, soundproofing is excellent at this new building, and no exterior sound can be heard. Beds feature Hilton Garden Inn's unique mattress system that allows guests to adjust the firmness to their liking. Piles of pillows complement the duvets, and nightstands feature individual reading lights and alarm clocks. Writing desks boast a row of international power ports, free wireless Internet access, and swiveling chairs. Bright bathrooms have glass shower stalls, makeup mirrors, and Neutrogena toiletries.
Conclusion: A fitness center on the 11th floor is well equipped, and three meeting rooms cater to small groups. Larger functions can share the ballrooms at the Hilton. The regional train station is located below the hotel making this an intermodal hub for transportation. The hotel's position is great for those in between journeys or even those that use it as a base for their work downtown (the subway plies the route between town and the airport multiple times an hour). With free wireless Internet, comfortable beds within short distance from the airport, and value-focused rates, this is the best choice for those on a budget. With Hilton Garden Inn at the helm, this property knows how to take care of weary travelers on the go.
US Airways flies daily between Charlotte and Frankfurt, and in the summer months, double-daily flights are offered.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who began his career with running back LaDainian Tomlinson in San Diego, launched a somewhat jocular poll Tuesday via Twitter:
"OK, due to popular demand, I am asking the question...who thinks LT should be a Saint?" Brees wrote, one day after the Chargers cut ties with the probable Hall of Fame running back rather than pay him a $2 million bonus that was due next month.
Tomlinson's future in the league is unclear at the moment as his production numbers have fallen sharply. But Brees remains unequivocally a fan:

Manchester United have played to full houses again on their tour of the USA and the players look fresh and sharp as they go through the usual tough pre season.
Just like any other tour that a Premier League team undertakes, the players have been interacting with the fans and sponsors to show a positive face of what is now a global giant of a club.
It appears some fans in England though are none too pleased about this and are feeling short changed about the 'access' that the club allows players on these tours.
Do these people have a point when it comes to player access?

Over the years, we have collected several masks that we use in facing different situations in life. Because of the world's competitive nature, we have developed this urgency to act on our own defense every time we perceive something as a threat. Our subconscious gets used to our reactions and piles these memories up - ready to be pulled out whenever similar situation arises again, these sometimes could make us lose touch with our inner child. The inner child is the main core of our being, our very nature, our natural self. It is sometimes called the "wonder child", the "inner self", or the "child within".
The Multiple Masks
We become so used to wearing our masks and tend to forget who we really are, what we really want, what we really do. In the trend of compromise, we tend to search for our happiness through others' approval of us. That is fine so long that the world around us approves the real us. Otherwise, the real happiness is never achieved no matter how large the crowd you own.
When we remember that life is short and days are fleeting, we realize that we need to find that one thing which can really gladden our hearts. We cannot afford a single day spent on mourning over something we cannot change, something that is part of our past. We cannot always carry our yesterday's to today's. Otherwise, we are not getting anything new. This kind of things in the past blinds the inner child in us. This is why we are driven away from our real identity. Fear surrounds us thoroughly that we are consciously protecting ourselves from being rejected and thus, ending in pretensions. The inner child is then imprisoned. When we search for happiness while we are not our real selves, we always get the wrong things to make us happy.
We need to be at peace with ourselves. To commence this quest to reclaiming the inner child within us, we need to accept that we might be wearing multiple masks through the years. We need to admit that this present 'me' may not be the real 'me' already. Admit and assess.
Ways To Find The Kiddo
We are still made up of the inner child despite years of pretension. To free the inner child and close the unresolved cases we have within that could hurt us and cause us depression or health problems, we should one by one do away with the masks we have collected. It all boils down to appreciating the beauty of our uniqueness.
Here are some tips on how to reclaim your inner child
1. Go back to your childhood.
You may find a neglected child, abandoned child, playful child, spoiled, disconnected child, fearful child, and many more. These feelings developed from childhood say a lot about the way you handle relationships now and how you react at certain situations. Recognize particular situations that manifested these emotions.
2. Understand that these events are not you.
Once you have recognized these events, make a clear-cut line between yourself and them. Talk to yourself. Relate them to your reactions at present. Find the connection and be aware of the reasons behind your way of doing things now. Separate your doing from your being.
3. Forgive the past.
Let go. Charge the unlikely events to experience, keep the lessons, and move on. You must learn to forgive yourself. Otherwise, you will never recognize open doors.
4. Remember what you do best.
Put to recall your innate talents. When you were a kid, what did you enjoy doing? Could it be dancing, singing, writing, playing an instrument? Recall and do it again. Carefully sense the kind of joy it gives you. If it is something you are naturally best at, you will recognize the differences in doing things without struggle. Then, you are heading to the factors that make you naturally happy and you are removing your inhibitions.
5. Take a moment to get in touch with your desires.
What is it that you are passionate about? What is the best life for you? Now, you begin to streamline your priorities and you can start focusing on the things that will get you to your best life picture. It is the inner child within you that has drawn this picture. This shall give extreme excitement and empower you to seize the day.
6. Keep in mind what the inner child is happy about.
Now that you have unraveled your inner joys and have discovered what covered them in the past, keep them in remembrance all the time. When you recall them, you are reminded that it is a hassle to live a life of conformity. You have to be free and live your own signature life. This is what can really make you feel happy.

Say that we observe random variable $X$, can I prove whether an event in $\sigma(X)$ (sigma field constructed from $X$) has occured or not. That is for each $x \in \mathcal{R}$ (real line) and each $\omega \in \Omega$ such that $X(\omega) = x,$ we can tell whether $\omega \in E$ or $\omega$ is not in $E$ for all $E \in \sigma(X)$. I must take for granted that for any $x \in \mathcal{R}, \{x\} \in \mathcal{B}$ $(\mathcal{R})$ (Borel field) and for any function $f$ and $g$ if $f^{-1} (A\cap B)$?
Do I have to state that an outcome $\omega \in \Omega$ where $\Omega \in \sigma(x)$ must have a combination of two singleton? For example $ (G;E;GE;...)\in \Omega$ and measurable function $X(\omega)$ for $\omega$ = GE; $X (\omega)=(A\cap B)$ ?

PCC in the News
News: PCC Track's Cano Wins Steeplechase At Mt. SAC Relays
Pasadena City College men's track and field runner Kevin Cano rallied from way back in the field to win the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the 55th Mt. San Antonio Relays held April 13 in Walnut. Cano, a sophomore, posted his personal best time of 9 minutes, 37.4 seconds to place him sixth on the state list.
Cano (Montebello High) was eighth in the first third of the race, then moved up to sixth with 1,000 meters left in the race. Despite a 10-second lead by Los Angeles Valley's Angel Alcantar, Cano grabbed fourth with 600 meters to go, then used a strong final kick to beat Alcantar by a second at the finish line.
Steven Williams placed second in the high jump (6-feet-8) and continues to be No. 2 in the state due to a jump made at the Pasadena Games of 6-8.75. Chineek Favors ran his season-best time of 48.35 seconds to take second in his heat and sixth overall in the 400 meters. Favors moved up to No. 12 on the state list.
Caleb Wood, who won the javelin event at the Cal State Los Angeles Invitational on April 6, fired his season-best throw of 177-7 to place fifth at Mt. SAC. Wood is 14th on the state list.
In the women's competition at the Mt. San Antonio Relays, Lancer Omhunique Browne (San Marino High) won the 100-meter dash easily with a mark of 11.70 seconds. Browne, currently second in the state in the event has run faster at 11.63 (Ben Brown Invitational on March 9). Browne didn't run the 200, but remains the state leader in that event with a 23.77 mark, performed at the Pasadena Games.
Kia Smith placed third in the 100 hurdles at 15.07, .10 of a second slower than her No. 7 state time in the event. Breanna Clark took fourth in the 400 meters (57.58), but that is more than a half-second slower than her best time (state No. 10). Sophia Amodia placed fifth in the 100 hurdles behind Smith, but her 15.27 time was her personal best and moved her to 13th in the state.
The 4x100 relay team placed second with a season-best time of 47.28 seconds behind the sprinting of Clark, Browne, Smith and Taylor Matthews. The Lancers are third in the state, but No. 1 in the SoCal region.
Christina Shamirian ran a season-best 12:17.50 to place third in the 3,000 steeplechase.
Rossha Harris took sixth in the javelin at 113-1, but continues to be ninth on the state list due to an early season throw of 118-6.
