Recreational Permit Law Upheld In Federal Court Missoula (Char-Koosta): The Tribe's authority to enforce the recreational permit law was upheld last week by a U.S. District Court Judge in Missoula. In an II page decision, Judge W.J. Jameson denied a motion to dismiss federal trespass charges against Flathead Lake non member Harlan F. Pollman and bound him over to U.S. District Court for trial. The action, which was seen as a test of the tribe's authority to issue and enforce recreational use permits on tribally owned lands and waters, means that non members must now buy permits or face federal prosecution which carries fines of up to $200 or a jail sentence of not more than 90 days, or both. At issue in the nearly ten month legal battle was Tribal Ordinance 44A revised. The ordinance was adopted February 14, 1969 to place tribal control over non-member use of, tribal recreational lands. The measure requires non-membecs to purchase a Recreational Use Permit to fish, hunt, camp and hike on tribal property. Enforcement of the ordinance is based on Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 1165 which makes it a crime for a non-Tribal member: "without lawful authority or permission wilfully and knowingly goes upon any land that belongs to any Indian or Indian tribe, held by the United States in trust... for the purpose of hunting, trapping or fishing." (cont. on page 3) Volume 2 - Number 23 CHAR-KOOSTA Salish, Kootenai, Pend 'd Orielles Tribes NEW MOON OF COURTSHIP (April 1,1973) Prjce 15cents. No More State Income Taxes For Indians Washington: Indians that live on reservations and earn their income there may not be taxed by states ... so said the U.S. Supreme Court Tuesday in a unanimous decision. The nation's highest court, however, ruled six to three in a separate decision that states can tax the gross reciepts of Indian owned businesses which are located on leased government lands. The income tax case was taken to the Supreme Court by a Navajo Indian woman living in Arizona. Rosalind McClan-ahan asked to hav e $16.20 in state taxes withheld from her in 1967 returned. The U.S. Supreme Court restored the money, overruling an earlier decision by the Arizona Supreme Court which found that states had not been barred from taxing income of Indians living on reservations. The McLanahan case was similar to the plight of Flathead tribal members Eugene and Clara Howlett. The State of Montana had placed liens against property belonging to the Howletts in lieu of taxes assessed while Howlett was employed by the tribe. Last year, the state and the tribe agreed to await a U.S. Supreme Court decision on the McClanahan case before taking the Howlett case to court. The high court' ruling is expected to be honored by state tax officials. The Supreme Court's unan- imous opinion was written by Justice Thurgood Marshall. The ruling noted, among other things, that state taxation of reservation Indians would violate the principal of "tribal self determination." Marshall said "It must always be remembered that the various Indian tribes were once independent and sovereign nations and that their claim to sovereignty long predates that of our own government." Kootenais Want Their Share Elmo (Kootenai Communications): The Kootena i Community feels it is getting the raw end of tribal politics and programs and they want out. This was the attitude of some 70 Kootenais attending a meeting at Koostah-tah Hall Monday night. The meeting was called to hear Fred Whitworth's 10-90 tribal revenue proposal but it turned into a show of Kootenai community cohesion when the issue of a separate Kootenai reservation was brought up. Margaret Mathias Friedlan-der, of the Kootenai Drum and Feathers Club, damanded a series of amendments to the tribal constitution including five Kootenai Councilmen out of a ten member council and the elimination from the tribal rolls of members with less than one quarter Indian blood. Mrs. Friedlander said that if these demands are not met, the Kootenais will file suit in Federal court for equal division of all lands, properties and assets now belonging to the Confederated Salish and Kootenai tribes. She said that this would mean the northern portion of the reservation would become the Kootenai Reservation under a separate government. Mrs. Friedlander said the University of Monana has promised legal assistance in devising both the suit and establishment of a Kootenai Tribal Government. University of Montana Law Professor Jack McDermott has said he would provide law students to work out the details of Kootenai self-government. The Kootenai community, whcih was well represented at the meeting, asked Tribal Secretary Fred Houle Jr., to set the fssue on the tribal quarterly meeting agenda April 6 in Dixon. Houle commented on criticism by the Kootenai community that tribal credit discriminates against Kootenais. He said there would be a position open on the Credit Committe in June and advised the Elmo community to choose a candidate for the Credit Committee spot.

Hi guys!
Love this site and all of the features PS3MediaServer gives us. I'm getting an even larger library of movies and tv-shows in my computer as the days goes by, and I'm looking for some advice to structure it. How do you guys do?
My "dilemma" is all the small things/and clicks that needs to be done with every moviefile before I get to watch it. I'll give you an example: First I need to find a movie and download it with Utorrent(a legit movie ofcoruse), then I need to unrar it when the download is complete. The next step is to browse some sites to find subtitles, and download them and extract them to the same directory. The last thing I need to do is to move the downloaded file from my /download directory to my /movies dir.
I want it smoother than this. What scripts/software/configurations would you guys recommend? Any tips are much appreciated.

CARSON -- The De La Salle High football team won its fourth consecutive California Interscholastic Federation Open Division state title over an old rival on Saturday at the Home Depot Center in Carson.
Senior Tiapepe Vitale broke the De La Salle single-season rushing record as the Spartans beat Centennial-Corona 48-28 in a rematch of the 2007 and 2008 Division I state championship games.
Bob Ladouceur earned career victory No. 399, and it could be the last for the legendary coach that built the Spartans into a national juggernaut over 34 seasons. After the game, Ladouceur said he'd decide after the holidays whether to retire from head coaching duties. He also hinted that he could remain with the team in another capacity if he does step down.
If this was Ladouceur's last year, it was a good way to go out. The victory capped a second unbeaten season in the last three years and avenged De La Salle's most recent loss to a California opponent, a 21-16 setback to Centennial in the 2008 Division I state title game.
The Spartans led 28-0 in the first half -- a start that more closely resembled De La Salle's blowout wins in its last two Open Division games than the tight contests of four and five years ago against the Huskies.
The rest didn't follow the same script as Centennial (14-2) used its high-octane, quick-strike offense to make a game of it in the second half.
"They get down the field in a minute," Ladouceur said. "They can take four plays and be in the end zone, we know that. It's one of those games you have to hold your breath the whole game. You don't know when they're going to explode on you."
Robert Webber connected with Barry Ware for a 5-yard touchdown on fourth down with 8:46 left in the game to get within two touchdowns, but the Spartans (15-0) got enough stops at the end to hold on for the win.
Vitale was excellent in his final game as a Spartan, gaining far more than the 94 yards he needed to surpass the previous De La Salle record of 2,050 yards set by Terron Ward in 2009. He finished with 142 yards and four touchdowns, eclipsing Ward's mark on an 8-yard run on De La Salle's first drive of the second half. He earned most of his yards after spraining his shoulder in the first half.
"It was my last game as a senior, I didn't want to let my team down," Vitale said. "I knew what I had to do coming into this game and second half had to be a physical game of running. I just thought about all the times I had with the team and that just pushed me through."
Vitale ends his career with 2,099 rushing yards and 33 touchdowns.
Das Tautalatasi added 121 rushing yards and a score while quarterback Chris Williams accounted for two touchdowns. The task for the De La Salle defense was a big one. They needed to slow a Centennial offense that featured two 1,000-yard rushers and Webber, a junior who entered the game with a school record 3,660 passing yards on the season.
The dynamic Huskies averaged a state-best 50.4 points per game along with 542 total yards.
"I'm just happy we held them to 28," said De La Salle defensive coordinator Terry Eidson.
For a half, the Spartans did get stops and made Centennial pay for its mistakes.
The Huskies, who fumbled seven times and lost three of them, were never able to recover fully from their rough start..
Webber completed 19 of 43 passes for 308 yards and three touchdowns after being held to just 44 passing yards at halftime.
"What killed us the most was those athletes running all over the field and (Webber's) accuracy," Eidson said. "I felt like I was looking at a college quarterback. He was just throwing darts out there."

Slater-Price's departure from county board is well-timed
Twenty years and one month ago, Pam Slater was sworn in as a county supervisor, a month before an official ceremony that would also include newly elected Dianne Jacob.
The gun had to be jumped because Susan Golding, the 3rd District supervisor Slater was replacing, had left early to take over as the mayor of San Diego.
Slater's big day, however, did not go like clockwork.
The battery of her car died on Interstate 5, making her an hour late.
"If it could go wrong today, it did," Slater told the standing O audience when she finally arrived.
On Monday, Pam Slater-Price's exit from office went off like a fine Swiss watch. At 12:52 p.m., Dave Roberts, 51, took the oath of office in an overflowing conference room at the county's new operations center.
Slater-Price wore an elegant black St. John's knit — and a high-beam smile.
"I am the first new supervisor in 18 years, the first of that next generation of county supervisors," Roberts told the over-the-moon crowd of supporters, a group of them wearing the campaign's signature purple.
Roberts took the oath with his left hand on a 45-year-old Bible, given to him in third grade. His family — husband Wally Oliver and five adopted children, four boys and a girl, ages 4 to 17 — bore proud witness.
For "Daddy Dave," the days of regular trips to Washington are over. He'll be close to his Solana Beach "Leave It to Beaver" home once owned by the late Patti Page.
How different this rite of passage would have been if Steve Danon, who barely lost to Roberts in November, had prevailed.
Slater-Price would have been in Europe with husband Hershell Price.
I can't think of any politician who has spent more personal capital to assure that her chosen successor won her seat. The supervisor fought like a tigress in stilettos for her man.
For starters, she endorsed Democrat Roberts over longtime Del Mar friend, Republican Carl Hilliard. She never missed an opportunity to bash the GOP-backed Danon, predicting that his election would be a nightmare right out of a Stephen King novel.
A culturally liberal Republican, she went all in for a Democrat who'd left the Republican Party years ago for its dark view of his sexual orientation.
In his speech, Roberts freely acknowledged Slater-Price's decisive influence on his campaign. "I would not be standing here today if it were not for the courage and vision of former Supervisor Slater-Price," he said.
Slater-Price's legacy issues — the arts and the environment — are his causes as well, he pledges.
To the surprise of no one, Roberts is retaining John Weil, Slater-Price's chief of staff, as well as three other key Slater-Price team members.
For going on two decades, supervisors have ruled like Republican overlords, swatting away challengers like gnats. But the end of the dynasty is near.
Thanks to union-backed term limits, passed two years ago, Roberts is the first supervisor ever elected whose days in office are legally numbered at 2,920 (assuming he's re-elected in 2016). Both Jacob and Supervisor Greg Cox, who were also sworn in Monday, have another term if they so choose.
Looking ahead, 2014 will be a bellwether year.
Supervisors Bill Horn and Ron Roberts will be up for re-election. The knives will be out.
The question is whether Horn and Ron Roberts will walk away, fight for one last term or, like Slater-Price, split the difference, retiring but fighting for their political successors.
For the last 18 years, North County has had the ultimate odd couple representing the region.
Though both Republicans, Slater-Price and Horn are the political yin and yang of North County — property rights champion vs. environmental champion; cool organic salad vs. hot-sauce barbecue; Jimmy Choos vs. cowboy boots.
With Dave Roberts, the ideological, if not the stylistic, dichotomy remains in place.
But in another sense, everything has changed with the election of a second Mr. Roberts.
A gay Democrat who did not graduate from San Diego State is a member of the exclusive club.
To Slater-Price, the best friend a politician ever had, that's a change that's right on time.

A lawsuit filed against local school officials after a teacher says they fired her and didn't tell her the real reason why has been dismissed.
The judge in the case wrote in court records that he found no evidence to support the former teacher's claim.
Lexington attorneys J. Follace Fields II and Carrie C. Mullins filed the complaint on Angela Brasser's behalf on Nov. 18, 2011, in Taylor Circuit Court.
Brasser, of Sonora, lists Campbellsville Schools Superintendent Mike Deaton and Campbellsville Board of Education as defendants.

First set is really fun and I think the highlight is the Gin that lasts about 13 minutes. While this version won't top any best-of Gin charts, its worth a listen for the slower and trance-like jam that about 8min in, with the help of Page and a meandering Trey sounds like, to me, that we are falling through space (or corridor) on the way to Gamehendge which could help lead to the Forbin > Mockingbird later. The Forbin narration is pretty standard as Trey talks about leaving the shell of your body and sinking into the core of the Earth to enter Gamehendge. Good stuff from an excellent first set.
The second set starts off with promise with The Curtain> Tweezer but this Tweezer is nothing to write home about and seems a bit directionless, but does have a nice segue into Lifeboy. Guyute keeps the pace and the Chalkdust livens things up a bit more. The show takes another turn when they ditch the electrics and go into an acoustic block of songs in typical fall '94 fashion. While I enjoy the bluegrass acoustic stuff, I think it can really ruin the momentum of a set. This set had good flow in my opinion, but I never thought it picked up any real momentum, so the acoustics may have been a good placement. A good Coil is placed nicely and they wrap things up with Tweeprise.
The encore is fun with the added horns for Ya Mar, but the structure of the song is a little awkward but that could be me just being picky. Cavern ends things nicely reminding everyone to take care of your shoes and probably your shell.
Good show overall, but I find the second set to be a little lackluster. Not a big deal though. 3/5

Kanawha County officials said Wednesday that the Kanawha-Charleston Animal Shelter facility on Greenbrier Street is closed until further notice.
The Charleston Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/TZsTap) that the shelter's director told county officials that there had been an outbreak and there needed to be a "massive cleanup."
Officials say the outbreak was started because a stray animal came in that was infected with distemper and passed it on to other dogs.
State veterinary officials say dogs with distemper begin demonstrating symptoms of respiratory infection. If gone untreated, it progresses to a neurological disease that's usually fatal.

Mark Shuttleworth is the founder of Thawte, the first Certification Authority to sell public SSL certificates. After selling Thawte to Verisign, Mark moved on to training as an astronaut in Russia and visiting space. Once he got back he founded Ubuntu, the leading GNU/Linux distribution. He agreed on releasing a quick interview to Free Software Magazine.
The interview
Tell us about your early days Mark. You started Thawte, which eventually became extremely successful and was bought by VeriSign. Well, what was the most exciting moment for you, during the development of Thawte?
The moment at 2am when my Python RSA implementation produced a digital signature that OpenSSL (then SSLeay) then would verify... that was quite a rush :-)
After selling Thawte, I imagine you had a world of opportunity in front of you. You could have lived in luxury for the rest of your life, multiplying your wealth. Instead, you decided to spend ten months in Russia training as an astronaut and became the first South African civilian in space. I read about it back then, and I remember thinking: my God, that sounds like a hell of a lot of hard work. Then, you decide to create the best GNU/Linux distribution—and again, you succeeded. What drives you towards such challenges, honestly?
Every time I go for a jog I end up huffing and puffing and thinking "hell, if I was a bit fitter, this would be easier". But the reality is that if I were fitter, I would just want to run further or faster, and end up huffing and puffing anyway. :-)
I think we are all driven to push ourselves in one way or another—to explore some idea or activity that's interesting. And in each of the cases you describe, my main motivation was to find out what could be done.
I were fitter, I would just want to run further or faster, and end up huffing and puffing anyway. :-)
With Ubuntu, it's still too early to say we've been successful. My personal goal is to make the distro sustainable—then there will be a team that pays its own way and can focus on producing the best free software desktop on the planet without my interference!
As far as Thawte, the space trip, or Ubuntu... is there anything you would have done differently?
Well, of course, I've learned a lot along the way. But I'm not inclined to wish for anything different to the set of mistakes I know I made. :-).
Think of how often we think we know what's going to happen, and then life works out totally differently. Imagine, then, if you went back and changed something in your past. You may think that would avoid one glitch in the journey, but the truth is it could take you off somewhere else entirely, and it's impossible to know where that would have been.
There's a very long way to go before I'm satisfied that Ubuntu is all grown up and can run its own race—until that happens I will likely stay with the project
So I don't delude myself that I've been anything but lucky to wander on this particular path, and I focus only on choosing which direction I'm going to go today.
Ubuntu is in my opinion the distribution that will give Microsoft the finishing stroke. What's your final goal with Ubuntu?
You're very kind, but I think you must see a certainty in the immediate future that I'm missing. There's a very long way to go before I'm satisfied that Ubuntu is all grown up and can run its own race—until that happens I will likely stay with the project, trying my best to help it become sustainable. Once that happens, yes, I think even Microsoft will have to factor it into their plans. A widely available, genuinely free distro of high quality that pays its own way would be a good thing in the world.
You are now based in England. Do you miss South Africa? Do you miss some of your friends or your relatives who still live in South Africa? Or do you go back often?
Yes, of course, you can never take Africa out of your blood. That makes it so much nicer when I get back every time I visit. It's quite possible that I'll move back to Cape Town someday, at least I like to think so.
**In other interviews, you mentioned that you believe in reincarnation. Do you practice meditation? **
Yes, I spend a lot of time wondering how the winds of change are blowing in the world, and how to sail them in a way that's fun and useful. That's about as close as I come to meditation. :-)

Subject: Very strange
First of all, excuse me for my bad and clumsy English.
Second, this interview more looks like a PR stuff: almost in every question you add a bunch of compliments to Shuttleworth, praise him, call his Linux distribution "a final stroke to Microsoft", etc.
From: Tony Mobily (SUBSCRIBER!)

Date: 2006-02-23
Subject: I don't think they were compliments...
I don't think the interview looked like "PR". Shuttleworth is in no way connected to Free Software Magazine.
I honestly believe that Ubuntu, together with Vista, will dent Microsoft's market share in the desktop market _considerably_. People seem to think that creating a distribution like Ubuntu is "easy". Well, it's not. It takes a lot of time and energy. Ubuntu is the only thing that I would ever suggest to those people who decide that they've had enough of viruses and so on, and want to break away from Microsoft.
Shuttleworth made Ubuntu possible. I really, really look up to him for what he did.
I am just giving credit where credit is due.

Subject: Compliments
The fact that the interviewer complimented Mark Shuttleworth on his achievements just highlights the fact that he knows enough to appreciate the contributions made by Shuttleworth.
With enough determination Ubuntu can knock Microsoft off its perch and I for one hope it happens soon.
good stuff
well whos perfect
UBUNTU is good stuff
in with the good out with the bad
move over MS the Big Dog
is going 2 get U _
Blessings - bob_knab
Terrible formatting!
I wanted to forward this interview to a friend - impossible to read! Phrases are repeated, sometimes Mark's answer is formatted like the question of the interviewer - PLEASE put this in a shape worthy for the interviewee!!

Jailer accused of smuggling contraband
Published: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 4:11 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 5, 2013 at 7:45 p.m.
A correctional officer was fired and arrested for smuggling contraband into the Lafourche Parish jail, Sheriff Craig Webre said Thursday.
Officer La'Quincia Bourgere, 24, of Raceland, who was hired April 15, admitted to delivering cell phones, an alcoholic beverage and tobacco to an inmate, Webre said.
"I am sorely disappointed in the actions of this former correctional officer," the sheriff said. "As a nationally accredited agency, we believe in being up front with the public in matters such as these, and furthermore, we have zero tolerance for officer misconduct."
"Based on our investigation, we do believe this individual acted alone and that her actions are not reflective of the correctional staff as a whole."
Webre said the inmate, Bourgere's friend before his incarceration, was able to conceal the items inside a jail shower stall.
Detectives said they recovered the items Wednesday and brought in Bourgere for questioning. She confessed and was charged with taking contraband to a penal institution, a felony.
Bourgere was fired shortly after.
Detectives say they are continuing the investigation.
Bourgere was released from jail Wednesday night on a $500 surety bond. The charge carries up to a $2,000 fine and five years in prison with hard labor.

Great for patterns & sequencing too!
By TwinzeeMom
from Illinois
About Me First Time Parent, Parent Of Multiples (Twins etc), Stay At Home Parent
Best Uses
Comments about Learning Resources Inchworms™:
Have twins with sensory processing issues. One twin is weak with fine motor skills too. They are four. We use this more for sequencing or establishing patterns to be repeated, identifying colors, etc. Sometimes the twins will work with this for an hour at a time. The boy takes the sequencing sets and pretends they are trains too. He loves to pull them around on tables and floors saying, "Chugga chugga Choo Choo." The pieces can be slightly difficult to separate, so they slightly bend some of the connection tips, this creates a slight crack or looseness when connecting to the next piece. It is not anything major to us. We hope to use these for measurement when the twins are older.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

About Me Education Oriented
These linking inchworms are a cute and easy way for children to practice measuring. They are easy to snap together and take apart and the little inchworm on top makes them look a little bit more fun than a regular block. One tub of 72 was enough for my students to use for math workstations with 5 students each working independently.

Last week, the U.S. Senate passed a sweeping immigration reform bill, but the measure faces an uncertain future in the House. It calls for increased border security and steps that would lead to citizenship for millions of illegal immigrants.
Those in support of that Immigration Reform Bill gathered today in Elmwood Park to raise awareness about the struggles of undocumented people.
The Celebration of Victory event brought together members of the community in support of the current bill and urge Congressman Goodlatte to fight for those with no voice.
Congressman Bob Goodlatte of Virginia's 6th District says he doesn't think the Republican-controlled House will pass the legislation, but wants both parties to see eye to eye. There are talks that the House might craft its own immigration reform bill.
Some of the people in attendance at Sunday's rally in the park are working towards citizenship because they want to be a part of the country's legacy.
Eli Salgado told Your Hometown News Leader, "I want to succeed in my life and I want to be able to encourage others no matter who they are. I want them to know that they can accomplish anything especially living in this great country. That we have the opportunity to do that."

PARKERSBURG - More than 100 photos of West Virginia counties are on display at the Parkersburg Municipal City Building as part of the state's sesquicentennial celebration.
"Snapshots in Time: A Photographic History of West Virginia" is provided by the West Virginia State Museum and the West Virginia Division of Culture and History. The display features two photos from each of the state's 55 counties. The black and white photos are from different time periods, with some reaching back to the early 1900s.
Barbara Sullivan, a member of the Parkersburg Woman's Club and chairman of the club's sesquicentennial celebration committee, said the traveling display was located online by a member.
"We reserved the display and traveled to Charleston to pick it up," she said. "We are very lucky to have this opportunity."
Abby Hayhurst, director of the Parkersburg Art Center, helped sort and hang the collection Tuesday on the second floor of the municipal building. Six volunteers - three from the Art Center and three from the city - also helped with the process.
Hayhurst said it was challenging to arrange the photos because there was no information on how the display should be assembled.
"We didn't know until we opened the boxes what we were going to find," she said.
It took volunteers about four hours Tuesday to unpack and hang the photographs, she said.
"We couldn't have done this without the help of the Parkersburg Art Center," said Mayor Bob Newell
Two of the photos display part of Wood County's history, including a picture of the "Women Aviators" from Parkersburg dated April 15, 1945.
Another photo, though listed as "location unknown," shows Arthur Boreman, first governor of West Virginia. Boreman practiced law in and was buried in Parkersburg.
The Civil War-era Fort Boreman was located on Fort Boreman Hill in Parkersburg. Originally called Mount Logan, it was renamed after Arthur Boreman of Parkersburg, the first governor of West Virginia, after the state's creation.
Newell said the display likely will remain at the city building through August.
"We were told we could keep them up through Parkersburg Homecoming," he said. "We'd like to keep them forever. They're very nice."

About the Book
Readers of John Green, Sarah Dessen, and Laurie Halse Anderson will be touched by the emotional depth and realistic characters of Jennifer Castle's teen novel You Look Different in Real Life.
Justine charmed the nation in a documentary film featuring five kindergartners. Five years later, her edgy sense of humor made her the star of a second movie that caught up with the lives of the same five kids. Now Justine is sixteen, and another sequel is in the works. Justine isn't ready to have viewers examining her life again. She feels like a disappointment, not at all like the girl everyone fell in love with in the first two movies. But, ready or not, she and the other four teens will soon be in front of the cameras again.
Smart, fresh, and funny, You Look Different in Real Life is an affecting novel about life in an age where the lines between what's personal and what's public aren't always clear.
For the rest of the world, the movies are entertainment. For Justine, they're real life.
The premise was simple: five kids, just living their lives. There'd be a new movie about them every five years, starting in kindergarten. But no one could have predicted what the cameras would capture. And no one could have predicted that Justine would be the star.
Now sixteen, Justine doesn't feel like a star anymore. In fact, when she hears the crew has gotten the green light to film Five at Sixteen, all she feels is dread. The kids who shared the same table in kindergarten have become teenagers who hardly know one another. And Justine, who was so funny and edgy in the first two movies,feels like a disappointment.
But these teens have a bond that goes deeper than what's on film. They've all shared the painful details of their lives with countless viewers. They all know how it feels to have fans as well as friends. So when this latest movie gives them the chance to reunite, Justine and her costars are going to take it. Because sometimes, the only way to see yourself is through someone else's eyes.
Smart, fresh, and frequently funny, You Look Different in Real Life is a piercing novel about life in an age where the lines between what's personal and what's public aren't always clear.

A training session for people who want to volunteer at winter shelters for the homeless in Ashland will be from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 9, at First Presbyterian Church's Calvin Hall, which is at the corner of Siskiyou Boulevard and Walker Street in Ashland.
The training will teach people how to help at a newly approved overnight shelter on Thursdays in Ashland's Pioneer Hall. The training event is open to anyone and is free to attend.
The Ashland City Council last week approved opening the city-owned building as an overnight shelter on Thursdays. The city requires one male volunteer and one female volunteer be present, and that an additional male volunteer be present if there are more than 10 men staying at the shelter. The Rogue Valley Unitarian Fellowship and Temple Emek Shalom agreed to coordinate trained volunteers for the Thursday night shelter.

2. Fixed the network connection
Celine was having terrible problems with her network connection. Initially I thought it was because Quickbooks couldn't handle the cascaded switch configuration, but with packet loss of over 50% and only two hosts connected to the switch, it didn't seem to be a resource problem. The high packet loss meant that Quickbooks was practically unusable. When I took my laptop down to the lobby for diagnostics, I couldn't even ping the server. The tester lit up the lines in the right order, although one of the cables didn't have a working pin 1.
After some poking around, I threw my hands up and crimped one of the spare cables according to the standards. (Good thing we had spares!) Lo and behold! It worked! I should leave a wiring diagram in Jun's networking toolbox.

Online Deer Harvest Form is a helpful tool for hunters
Published: Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 12:10 a.m.
The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources' Online Deer Harvest Form allows hunters to provide important information about their harvest to help better manage the deer population, and keep track of their own harvests over time.
When hunters record their deer harvest online it benefits the state's deer population by providing state wildlife biologists with information needed to help create sound, scientific wildlife management plans that promote a healthy sustainable herd. Hunters are encouraged to report their harvest as soon as possible after the hunt at outdooralabama.com.
"Alabama's hunters are the most valuable asset in managing the state's deer herd," said Ray Metzler, assistant chief of wildlife for the Alabama Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries. "Any data they can provide about their hunt, even if it was unsuccessful, is extremely valuable in creating a better understanding of the state's deer herd."
Using the online harvest form, hunters can report harvest data by ecoregion within a county, and view the distribution of Alabama's deer harvest over time throughout the state. The form also allows hunters to view average weights, antler measurements and other physical characteristics of deer.
In addition to providing scientific data about the state's deer herd, the Online Deer Harvest Form is a convenient way for hunters to keep track of their harvest history by serving as the hunter's harvest journal. Once the information is added to the online database, it is permanently accessible by the hunter any time.
Data collected by the online harvest form include the date and time of harvest, gender of the animal, number of antler points, county where harvested, method of harvest and the type of hunt (stalk or dog). The form will begin accepting turkey harvest information in the spring.
Wildlife biologists developed the system in 2005 to gather deer harvest data in Barbour County. While the online reporting is voluntary, all hunters are encouraged to participate.

Rheumatoid Arthritis
(RA; Arthritis, Rheumatoid)
Definition | Causes | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Prevention
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease. It causes pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function in the joints.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
RA is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors that trigger an abnormal immune response. Possible causes include:
- Genes—People with rheumatoid arthritis may have a specific genetic defect that increases their risk for developing this condition
- Defects in the immune system may cause the immune cells to fail to recognize the body's own tissues
- Infection with specific viruses or bacteria that kick off an abnormal immune response
- Chemical or hormonal imbalances in the body
Risk Factors
RA is more common in women, and in people between the ages of 30 and 60. Other factors that may increase your chance of developing RA include:
- Family members with RA
- Excess weight or obesity
- Heavy or long-term smoking
RA causes many symptoms.
Joint symptoms include:
- Increased pain and stiffness in the morning and after inactivity
- Morning stiffness and pain that lasts more than 30 minutes
- Red, swollen, warm joints
- Deformed, misshapen joints
RA may also cause:
- Intense fatigue, decreased energy
- Muscle aches
- Decreased appetite
- Weight loss
- Fever and sweats
- Insomnia
- Small lumps or nodules under the skin
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. To be diagnosed with RA, you must have at least 1 swollen or tender joint or a history of a swollen joint. How many joints, and which joints are involved, will help aid your doctor in the diagnosis.
Your bodily fluids may be tested. This can be done with blood tests.
Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with:
There is no cure for RA. The goals of treatment are to:
- Relieve pain
- Reduce inflammation
- Slow down joint damage
- Improve functional ability
There are a variety of medications to treat the pain and inflammation of RA. In some cases, medications may be used in combination. These may include:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Cyclooxgenase-2 or COX-2 inhibitors
- Nonbiologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
- Biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
- Corticosteroids
Medication may be taken by mouth, applied to the skin, or injected into the joint.
Rest and Exercise
Rest reduces active joint inflammation and pain and fights fatigue. Exercise is important for maintaining muscle strength and flexibility. It also preserves joint mobility.
These steps may help relieve stiffness, weakness, and reduce inflammation:
- Maintain a balance between rest and exercise
- Attempt mild strength training
- Participate in aerobic exercise, such as, walking, swimming, or dancing
- Avoid heavy-impact exercise
- Control weight
- Participate in a physical therapy program
Joint Care
Splints applied to painful joints may reduce pain. Devices that help with daily activities can also reduce stress on joints. Devices include:
- Zipper extenders
- Long-handled shoehorns
- Specially designed kitchen tools
Stress Reduction
Stress reduction can ease the difficulties of living with a chronic, painful disease. Participating in an exercise program or joining a support group are 2 strategies you can use to reduce stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy, a form of talk therapy, and meditation may also offer benefits in reducing your pain and improving your ability to cope with RA.
There are no current guidelines to prevent RA.

Acemoglu Talks Turkey
If you've seen Daron Acemoğlu's name lately, it may have been alongside the phase "future Nobel prize winner." A professor of economics at MIT, he has written numerous influential books, papers, and op-eds, weighing in on issues ranging from what he calls Denmark's "cuddly" capitalism to the decline of the Mayans 1,200 years ago. Along the way, he's picked up numerous accolades, including the John Bates Clark Medal awarded to economists under age 40, and engaged in public spats with Bill Gates and Columbia's own Jeffrey Sachs over whether geography is destiny (Gates and Sachs say it is; Acemoğlu says it's not).
In April, Acemoğlu visited Columbia Business School to receive the George S. Eccles Prize for Excellence in Economic Writing for his most recent book, "Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty." In it, Acemoglu and coauthor James A. Robinson argue that the main determinants of a nation's wealth or poverty aren't weather, geography, or culture. Rather, manmade political institutions such as financial markets and judicial systems steer nations' fates — and have done so throughout history.
Acemoğlu sat down with Chazen Senior Scholar David Beim for a spirited conversation on the outlook for Acemoğlu's native country, Turkey.David Beim: Your book posits the theory that political institutions fall into two categories: one is inclusive institutions that allow people free rein to use their talents and skills for economic gain, such as those found in South Korea and the United States today. The other category is extractive institutions, which siphon wealth and income from one segment of society to benefit an elite segment. If you take the ideas from your book and apply them to Turkey, what do we learn?
Daron Acemoğlu: Well, Turkey is a particularly difficult case for this framework. When you look at the historical details of every country, there are subtleties one has to take care of that don't fall on one side or the other. But if you look at the Ottoman Empire until about 1850, it fits quite naturally into a military extractive society.
But today you actually have a society which in some ways is becoming much more inclusive. People who previously didn't have a political voice for quite a while now have one. The economic base is getting broader.
Beim: Many businesses are formed by Islamic communities.
Acemoğlu: Exactly. The MUSIAD [The Independent Industrialists' and Businessman's Association], which is the independent business association but is really the Muslim business association, is competing much better for state contracts.
If you want to make money in Turkey, you have to have good relations with the state. There's now a broader economic base but there are real concerns also.
Beim: What has you worried?
Acemoğlu: The biggest concern is that when you start from a situation where state institutions are weak and there's not independent judiciary, a group that feels itself being the victim of decades of exclusion comes to power. They will have a natural inclination to say, "okay, we'll take control of these institutions. We're gonna eat the pie now.'" There are really no checks against them.
Essentially what you've seen over the last five years is that the AKP [a political party that advocates an Islam-inspired social conservative agenda and an liberal market economy] has taken control of a lot of the old vestiges of the Kemalist rule. So the judiciary that was very staunchly pro-bureaucracy, pro-military is now infiltrated with people who are sympathizers of the AKP. These authoritarian tendencies ebb and flow. It's a natural inflection, a natural consequence of the fact that there are no constraints.
Beim: What's your view on Turkey joining the European Union? Do you think it should happen?
Acemoğlu: That's a really good question. In 2000, Turkey started undergoing fairly important institutional changes triggered by efforts to join the EU. It abolished the death penalty, and there was a further opening up to the Kurdish part of the population.
My view is that Turkey has hugely benefited from the accession plan. I think ultimately the European Union would have benefited. The EU politicians acted in a not irrational but perhaps myopic way. There's no doubt that if Turkey did become part of the EU in the mid-2000s, that would have been costly for Europe but ultimately would have been a great boon, because it's a very young, very active population. And it would have stabilized Europe in its relationship with the Middle East.
Beim: Turkey does seem to have a pretty favorable demographic base. Its population is much younger than its western peers, and it presumably has a lower dependency ratio. But there's also chronic unemployment, and it seems like the government institutions favor state-owned enterprises that stifle entrepreneurship. How can Turkey best motivate this demographic?
Acemoğlu: I think state-owned enterprises are a problem. There is a big infrastructure-building going on in Turkey that is sorely needed, and that's going to happen through procurement. The procurement law that was passed in 2002 was hugely revolutionary: previously, all procurement was in the dark and there was a huge amount of kickbacks going on. But that law has been eroding. Now, more and more procurements are put in a different category that goes under the table. These sorts of things worry me more than just the state-owned enterprises themselves.
I mean, no sane person would open a business in southeast Turkey right now. It's still a war zone.
Beim: So are you optimistic or pessimistic about Turkey?
Acemoğlu: I'm still optimistic. It's a country to watch. They have great potential.

BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION, the new band featuring MÖTLEY CRÜE bassist Nikki Sixx, L.A. GUNS guitarist Tracii Guns, former MÖTLEY CRÜE frontman John Corabi (who plays guitar in the group), and vocalist London LeGrand, have parted ways with ADEMA drummer Kris Kohls and have replaced him with Scot Coogan (ex-PAUL GILBERT, ONI LOGAN/ROWAN ROBERTSON, SINÉAD O'CONNOR)."Kris Kohls was our first choice for drummer because he looked the part, played the part and he's a funny motherfucker, but we needed a 100 percent commitment, and he couldn't commit [because of his schedule with ADEMA], so now we have Scot Coogan," Guns told Metal Sludge. "[He] is absolutely the best drummer L.A. has to offer, and we lucked out because he is also funny as hell."

Lions accept Wheat Bowl invitation
April 6, 2000
The athletic program at Lindenwood University received an added incentive recently when the Lions' football program was selected to play in the prestigious Wheat Bowl Football Classic.
Lindenwood athletic director and football coach Dan Kratzer formally accepted the invitation during a press conference last week at the Hyland Performance Arena on the LU campus.
Lindenwood will play Concordia University of Seward, NE in the pre-season headliner that will initiate the Year 2000 football campaign for NAIA membership nationwide. Wheat Bowl VI is scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. on Aug. 26 at the Sports Complex in Ellinwood, KN.
"We're extremely excited to have Lindenwood University as our first-ever St. Louis-area participant," said Toby Johnson, chairman of the Wheat Bowl's Selection Committee. "Coach Kratzer's program is always competitive in the rugged Heart of America Athletic Conference football wars. Wheat Bowl officials are impressed with the enthusiasm already being generated by both the Lindenwood administrative and athletic leadership."
Kratzer and his Lindenwood coaching staff expect the upcoming edition of Lion football to return to the stature of 1998 when LU finished 8-3 and earned its first post-season NAIA playoff berth.
The Wheat Bowl Classic remains the only NAIA-endorsed pre-season football classic in the country. Two NAIA national champions have appeared in Wheat Bowl contests--defending national champ University of Sioux Falls participated in the 1997 match, while 1999 Wheat Bowl winner Northwestern Oklahoma State University launched what proved to be an unblemished season en route to an NAIA national championship.

Aside from existing drug therapies, certain lifestyle and nutritional factors are known to reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Among the nutritional factors, dried plum or prunes (Prunus domestica L.) is the most effective fruit in both preventing and reversing bone loss. The objective of the present study was to examine the extent to which dried plum reverses bone loss in osteopenic postmenopausal women. We recruited 236 women, 1–10 years postmenopausal, not on hormone replacement therapy or any other prescribed medication known to influence bone metabolism. Qualified participants (n 160) were randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups: dried plum (100 g/d) or dried apple (comparative control). Participants received 500 mg Ca plus 400 IU (10 μg) vitamin D daily. Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine, forearm, hip and whole body was assessed at baseline and at the end of the study using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Blood samples were collected at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months to assess bone biomarkers. Physical activity recall and 1-week FFQ were obtained at baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months to examine physical activity and dietary confounders as potential covariates. Dried plum significantly increased BMD of ulna and spine in comparison with dried apple. In comparison with corresponding baseline values, only dried plum significantly decreased serum levels of bone turnover markers including bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b. The findings of the present study confirmed the ability of dried plum in improving BMD in postmenopausal women in part due to suppressing the rate of bone turnover.
