The life of a Queen
It's My Birthday!!March 17th 2007 11:53 am
[ Leave A Comment ]
I'm so excited because it is my birthday today!! Mom sang me Happy Birthday as soon as I woke up!! Mom and Baylee gave me a new mauve harness and leash and two new toys!! I love them!! Mom also bought my sucky sister some presents too because Mom knew she would be upset if she didn't get anything!!
Mom's SickMarch 8th 2005 5:18 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
Well Mom was sick today. I love when she is sick (sorry mom). It just means more cuddle time for me. Under the covers and in bed all day. This is the life! I don't really get why she has to go to work everyday anyway. I don't think she even wants to leave us every day. So why go? She keeps telling me about how she has to pay bills, what ever they are. She did mention that if she didn't work that she would not have the money to get me all the treats, clothes and toys that I am so accustom to. So only work long enough for that stuff. That's the important stuff. Forget the bills their not important. Anyway, time for more cuddles. Talk to you soon.
Snow =(January 22nd 2005 9:15 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
Well it snowed again today. I don't know what Baylee sees in that stuff, but I don't even want to go in long enough to...(well you know). Baylee looked like she was having so much fun that I thought I would give it a try. It was fun for all of 10 seconds. After that I couldn't even feel my nose. It was practically over my head! All Baylee wanted to do was play, even though she could clearly see that I was turning into an ice cube! How inconsiderate! I was even too cold to eat my breakfast when I came in. I just wanted to curl in that nice warm bed. Finally Mom wrapped me up in a blanket and cuddled me until the chill went away. I'll have to repay her some how. Maybe I can get rid of some of those bills that she is always complaining about.
Why does there have to be kids?January 20th 2005 7:42 pm
[ Leave A Comment ]
I was at Grandma's and Grandpa's with Mom and Baylee waiting for Grandpa to come home so I could give him his daily face wash (what did he do before me?) . He finally comes home at 4:30 but in behind him comes one of those "kids" . At least it was just the big one though. I don't know what Baylee sees in those little humans but they scare the fur off of me. Of course what does he want to do when he comes in, touch me !! ugh I kissed his hand thinking that it would make him happy and he would go away. The kid took that as a sign that I liked him and tried to hug me. Finally my mom stepped in (far to late as far as I'm concerned) and told him to just pet me under my chin and to let me get use to him. I don't know if I can ever get used to those fast moving smaller ones but I guess because mom wants me to I can try to used to this bigger one. I just wish he didn't try to hug me I 've got an image to upkeep here. Finally he left and I was able to sit on mom's lap peacefully. At least Baylee kept him occupied for part of the visit. She actually likes to play with him and listens to him. What a disgrace!

Calyann Barnett brings the heat
caines | 9/27/2012, 5:30 a.m.
Dwayne Wades stylist shares secrets to her successShe is known as the woman behind the stylish looks that have gone on to set trends. Calyann Barnett is the stylist who single-handedly elevated Dwayne Wades style from court-side seats to the pages of GQ all the way to the White House. However there is more to Barnett than Dwayne Wade. Barnetts work can be seen on the cover of B.O.B latest album as well. The stylist has worked with countless stars, creating her own galaxy of style. Barnett has worked with everyone from Michael Vick, Shaggy, Tyrese and Keyshia Cole. Her resume of work even branches all the way out to coveted magazine editorial spreads.
The winning equation
It all comes down to integrity You must always consider what your client wants but stay true to your style as well, Barnett said. What has contributed to my success is doing what feels real to me. I am always myself. Barnett describes her style as being a reflection of her culture and surroundings. I draw inspiration from my surroundings: New York, Miami, Los Angeles as well as caribbean colors and textures, Barnett said. I would describe my style as very eclectic, kind of all over the place- an effortless mess. There is no denying that Barnetts groundbreaking work with Dwayne Wade has catapulted the stylists name into the limelight and resulted in a new outlook on athletes style. Designers are realizing how involved athletes are becoming in fashion, Barnett said. They are changing their silhouettes and patterns to consider them. You are seeing a lot more tailored suits and longer sleeves. While the stylistic pairing of Wade and Barnett seems like a match made in heaven, it is a rapport that was not easily earned. He was a little stand-offish at first, Barnett said. But he started trusting my opinion and now he even puts in his own suggestions. In the end the formula for success is a simple one according to Barnett, its all about staying true to ones self and and knowing when to be persistent. I push a lot and he (Wade) knows if I push, its because I believe in it. By Julia firstname.lastname@example.com

As airline pilots whose careers are largely based on the economic success of our individual companies, we are keenly aware of the advantages and necessity of competition. It spurs better products and services and affordable (market-based) prices, and also gives consumers choice.
But this isn't really an argument about competition and choice. This is exposing a company seeking an end run around global rules to compete on an unlevel playing field against U.S. airlines and their employees.
OUR VIEW: Let discount Norwegian fly
The company calls itself Norwegian Air International (NAI). It registers its airplanes in Ireland (but does not fly to Ireland). Pilots are hired using a Singapore employment firm and based in Thailand.
Why would a company go through so much trouble? By registering in Ireland, instead of Norway where its parent and sister companies are based, NAI can avoid Norway's employment, regulatory and tax laws and is able to use this convoluted business scheme, which would not be allowed in Norway.
Importantly, NAI's sister airline, Norwegian Long Haul (NLH), based in Norway, already flies to the United States with "low fares" that U.S. consumers are free to choose now. Did ALPA launch an opposition campaign against NLH? No. Because ALPA is not opposed to competition — in fact, we welcome it — when the competition adheres to the rules.
NAI's application falls into an entirely different category. The underhanded scheme — to fly to the United States by establishing a flag-of-convenience in Ireland — is the same type of business model that devastated the U.S. maritime industry, which employed in 1960 more than 100,000 people here but less than 2,500 today. The future of aviation jobs is certain to see a similar outcome should NAI be successful.
ALPA supports competition, but we reject any business model that would reap a parent company substantial new profits by putting U.S. jobs at tremendous risk. This isn't about "low cost" and "consumer choice." Consumers already have that option with NLH. It makes no sense to jeopardize U.S. jobs to accommodate this convoluted scheme.
The U.S. must deny NAI.
Lee Moak, a Delta pilot, is president of the Air Line Pilots Association.

European External Action Service
EEAS Building, 9A Rond Point Schuman - 1000 Brussels
EEAS Building, 9A Rond Point Schuman - 1000 Brussels
In all its locations, those working for the Service include European Union civil servants, local employees and civil servants from EU Member States.
The EEAS makes sure that cooperation between the EU and EU Member States is strong when it comes to foreign affairs and policy. The very structure of the organisation, with civil servants from both the EU and the EU countries, creates a living link.
Most of the daily work at the EEAS's headquarters is overseen by the Secretary General and Deputy Secretaries General. Five large departments cover different areas of the world – Asia-Pacific, Africa, Europe and Central Asia, the Greater Middle East and the Americas. Separate departments cover global and multilateral issues (including, for example, human rights, elections and development), response to crises, and administrative and financial matters.
The organisation chart of the EEAS illustrates this structure [286 KB]
Following the Treaty of Lisbon, the European External Action Service is responsible for the running of about 140 EU Delegations and Offices operating around the world, representing the EU and its citizens globally.
The EU Delegations play a key role in implementing the EU's foreign policies. They serve EU interests by presenting, explaining and implementing EU policy; analysing and reporting on the policies and developments of the host countries; and conducting negotiations in accordance with a given mandate.
Most delegations are responsible for EU relations with a single country. Some oversee relations with a group of countries or a region, for example the Delegation to Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and the Dutch Overseas Countries and Territories. Some EU Delegations are also dedicated to organisations like the African Union or the United Nations.
Maintaining political dialogue, administering development aid, overseeing EU trade issues and building cultural contacts, are just some of the tasks undertaken by EU Delegations whose staff come from a number of different departments of the External Action Service and the European Commission.
You can find a complete list of our delegations here.

...just going through old photos from last holidays.
...just going through old photos from last holidays.
Fantastic. !
You're an amazing photographer.
You're an amazing photographer.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment
Beautiful shot! Your compositions are always excellent!
That is really fantastic. Additionally, I am jealous of the locations you manage to get photos from!
I Know What it reminds me of! lord of the rings lmao really out there with a cinematic feel to it. Awsomeoh!
I really can't place what this reminds me of, but the thought is there somewhere. Brilliant photo though, the tone and mood is perfect
You got some awesome B&W photography!
Some kind of dramatic/mysterious mood around those mountains.
It was quite a stormy day..its much more interesting to take photos on days like this rather than sunny, clear ones
nice atmosphere
I could hang this on my wall and stare at it.
That's cool, excellent composition. I need to look at this again once I'm home, 'cause the screens here in the grad-lab are despicably dirty...
Oh this looks even better now. I can easily distinguish what is actual atmospheric haze, rather than contending with dust and marks on the screen
i really like it alot specially that fog
and i like it in b&w
and i like it in b&w

I'm probably too old to hang a poster of a pro football player on my bedroom wall, but if I did I'd have my guy: Jeff Ulbrich, 49ers linebacker.
He's not just a 6-foot-1, 245-pound, 9-year veteran of the NFL. He's more, much more. He's Jeff Ulbrich, Prius Man!
The South Bay native drives a gray 2008 Prius every day from his home in San Martin to the Niners' practice facility in Santa Clara. No surprise, he is the only player on the 58-man roster who drives the popular hybrid, which isn't so popular among National Football League types.
Former teammate Eric Johnson, now with New Orleans, had a Prius when he played here. But a sampling of public relations staffers and others from around the league drew almost total silence when asked if they knew of others who drive a Prius.
"Considering this is the NFL, he might as well add lipstick and a handbag," said one person who begged to remain anonymous.
"It's not too typical for an NFL player to drive a Prius," said Eric Heitmann, a 6-foot-3, 312-pound center who drives an F-150. "Especially a tough linebacker like Jeff."
In a team parking lot last week, 16 of the 22 vehicles were mammoth sports-utility trucks or sleek foreign sports cars. Big men like big vehicles, and when Ulbrich rolled quietly into camp last summer, the razzing was more intense than an all-out blitz. His No. 1 abuser was linebacker Takeo Spikes, new to the team this year and now a friend.
"He thinks I'm a goober, a little nerd driving around in my Prius when he's got his fancy Range Rover over there," said Ulbrich, 31, smiling as he recalled the locker room banter.
Said Spikes, an 11-year veteran: "I didn't believe it was his car. I thought it's got to be a rental. Then I saw all his stuff laying around inside. It was really his car.
"But that car sums up his personality. If you don't know Jeff, that car is him. They ought to call it an Ulbrich."
Prius owners are accustomed to the abuse. Their cars are called wimpy, unmanly and diminutive. But Ulbrich doesn't care.
He's sold on the spiffy little car, having given up a leased Cadillac (14 mpg) last summer, when gas prices reached $4.69 a gallon. Where his 100-mile round trip used to cost him $35.50 a day, that went down to less than 10 bucks a day in his 50-mpg Prius. And with today's low prices, it's down to $3.60 a day.
Ulbrich may have been a sociology major in college, but he can do math.
Another influence was when his 7-year-old daughter, Samantha, came home from school talking about a project on the environment. It got him thinking: Sure, the Ulbrichs have four recycling bins, but there was more Jeff could do. Like burn less gas.
"I'm getting older," he said, "I need to make more responsible choices and set a better example for my kids."
And now that he's got the car, it's become an obsession.
"Obsessed? Absolutely," Ulbrich said. "I'm constantly checking the dashboard. Whenever the mileage jumps point 2 or point 3, I'm pumped. Sometimes I'm not even paying attention to traffic. Just looking at those meter bars in my car."
I've had a Prius for nearly three years and have averaged 52-54 mpg much of that time. So I shared some tips with my newfound Prius brother.
Like going shoeless when driving. Less pressure on the pedal can boost mileage by 2-3 mpg.
Ulbrich's eyes widened. This was better than a quarterback sack. "That's fantastic," he said. "I'm driving barefoot, then."
And if you slow down to 50-55 mph on the freeway, 59 mpg is possible. "I'm driving 55, then," he vowed.
Ulbrich's cheering section may extend beyond Candlestick Park.
"Don't assume that driving a hybrid, or going green, means being a wimp," said Bradley Berman, editor of HybridCars.com. "Jeff Ulbrich is a pro football linebacker and a serious martial artist. And he's certainly not the only Prius driver who can beat the living crap out of most Hummer owners."
I called a friend who owns a Prius to tell her about Ulbrich's car. She bubbled in excitement — then committed the faux pas of saying the Prius was "cute."
Cute! No, tell her no, Jeff. Not cute!
"Cute, that might be a good description," Ulbrich said. "As much as I hate that adjective, it probably is more cute than manly. But when I'm getting 50 mpg, you can't argue too much."
Time to hang that poster.

Read about prominent entrepreneurs from Kansas City history in our "Wall of Honor."
A highly educated Quaker from Pennsylvania and former teacher with a law background, Kersey Coates came to Kansas City in 1854 as a land investor. He developed the first upscale neighborhood on land purchased from Berenice Chouteau along the west bluffs, far from the riverfront gully town. His Quality Hill became an area of well-designed buildings and gracious brick homes for the wealthy. (Missouri Valley Special Collections biography in PDF format [2] by Barbara Magerl)

Chester Arthur Franklin founded THE CALL newspaper in May 1919. It was owned and operated by him until his death on May 7, 1955. Born on June 7, 1880, Chester Franklin was the only child of George F. Franklin, a barber, and Clara Belle Williams Franklin, a teacher. He was born at the time when African Americans were moving out of Texas in search of better educational opportunities for their children.

Barnett Helzberg Sr. was one of Kansas City's boldest and most successful businessmen. In his 50-plus years in business, he built a small, family-owned jewelry store into one of the largest and most profitable jewelry store chains in the country.
Helzberg was born in Kansas City, Missouri, and attended Benton Elementary School, where Walt Disney was one of his classmates. His father, a Russian immigrant, opened the first Helzberg Diamond Shop in Kansas City, Kansas, in 1915. A few years later, he suffered a stroke, and Barnett, a 16-year-old student at Central High School, became responsible for the store. (Missouri Valley Special Collections biography in PDF format [7] by David Conrads)
More about Barnett Helzberg, Sr. [8] on KCHistory.org.
In an homage to William T. Kemper at the time of his death, The
Kansas City Star fondly wrote that "no one was just like 'W. T.' in flashing a welcome across the wide expanse of the Commerce lobby, a kindling of the eye, an impetuous wave of the arm, warmth in homely words." Kemper applied this spirit of friendliness and approachability to his business and banking organizations, resulting in a number of highly profitable ventures.

More about William T. Kemper [9] on KCHistory.org.
While many entrepreneurs are motivated by youthful dreams of great success, the founder of one of Kansas City's largest business empires claimed never to have set lofty goals for himself, but instead advised simply "doing what seems to be assigned to you to do next, and keep pegging at it." This practical philosophy led Robert A. Long to build his Long-Bell Lumber Company from the ground up and made him one of the nation's leading industrialists.

August Meyer was born to German parents in St. Louis in 1851. He studied mining and metallurgy in Europe and then made a fortune as a mining engineer in Colorado, before coming to this area in 1882. Once here, he helped turn a small smelting planet in the Argentine area of Kansas City, Kansas, into one of the major metal treatment plants in the country.

The triumphs, tragedies, and just plain interesting anecdotes of Arthur Stilwell's life could fill up a many-chaptered tome. Stilwell actually devoted himself to writing at the end of his life, penning a six-part autobiography for the Saturday Evening Post, numerous philosophical essays, and Christian Science hymns. Whether sharing his big dreams with Cornelius Vanderbilt or Pancho Villa, he was rarely at a loss for words, and his practical execution of the plans he promoted made him one of Kansas City's first successful venture capitalists.

Thomas Hunton Swope led a quiet but successful life as one of Kansas City's most prosperous land developers. He generously gave tracts of land for a hospital and the vast acreage of Swope Park. But it was the millionaire's death that created a frenzy in the press for years, as his physician was tried for his murder.

William Volker arrived in Kansas City in 1882, seeking to do business in a town where rapid settlement and advantageous rail and river access had created one of the Midwest's most robust economies. Volker had spent less than half of his 23 years in the United States; he had immigrated with his parents from Germany at age 12 to Chicago, where his parents remained.

John B. White enjoyed a notable career in the lumber business, but he would become better known for his lifelong passion for books. Raised in New York, where he first entered the lumber business, White saw opportunity in the forested regions of Missouri. He helped organize the Missouri Lumber & Mining Company, building a sawmill in southeast Missouri to take advantage of the abundant pine forest. This company was the first to enter the yellow pine industry. (Missouri Valley Special Collections biography in PDF format [24] by Janice Lee)

"Don't think that I ever let a piece of ground get away from me if I could get the money to buy it," a 78-year old Willard E. Winner assured a group of Kansas City businessmen in 1927. At the peak of his success 40 years earlier, Winner's investments encompassed over 20,000 acres of real estate in Jackson, Platte, and Clay Counties. His obituary, however, would report that he "died poor," making him a tragic example of the boom-to-bust economy of late nineteenth-century Kansas City. Many of Winner's visions for the city's future eventually came to be. (Missouri Valley Special Collections biography in PDF format [26] by Daniel Coleman)

Copenhagen Nightlife
Nightlife in Copenhagen has a couple of gears and the real party doesn't rev up until very late at night. To jumpstart the evening, most wait the night hours away in a huge variety of popular cafés and bars that usually serve both food and drinks. These can range from renovated historic buildings with new edgy décors to newly built and fashionable cafés.
Hybrid bars are a perfect way to begin the night as they change themes and almost reinvent their venue several times in a single night. This lets patrons enjoy easy listening music and nice meals before late night DJ's take over with a dance club atmosphere.
Those looking for more culture than party should visit the 150-year-old Pantomime Theatre, which stages commedia dell'arte productions with free admission. The modern Tivolis Koncertsal offers classical entertainment from opera to symphonies. You can often find last-minute discounted tickets at the ticket kiosk across from the Nørreport train station at the corner of Fiolstræde and Nørre Voldgade.
For those that venture on in the early morning, the night clubs are just waking up. Venues pop up and disappear quickly in Copenhagen which ensures there is always a fresh variety of drinking and dancing venues. Certain areas of the city, such as Nyhavn and Boltens Gaard, are long time Copenhagen nightlife districts that can always promise great venues. These often stay open until about 5am.
For updated listings of what's happening in Copenhagen, pick up a free copy of Copenhagen This Week at the tourist information centre.

Thursday Nov. 6, 2008
SHANGHAI, China (AP) -- Henrik Stenson shot a 7-under 65 today in
rainy Shanghai and has a narrow lead after the opening round of the HSBC Champions tournament.
The Swede dropped a 20-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole to finish a shot ahead of defending champion Phil Mickelson, Anthony Kim, Sergio Garcia of Spain and Australia's Adam Scott. Garcia missed a four-foot eagle putt on the 18th that would have put him in a tie for the lead.
There's also a subplot in China. If Garcia wins this week, he'll overtake Mickelson for Number 2. If the Spaniard comes in second, Mickelson needs to finish at least fourth to keep his spot. If Garcia ends up third, Mickelson will
need to finish at least 15th to retain his current ranking.
The HSBC event is being called "Asia's major," and there are suggestions it should become a World Golf Championships event. But for now, it's simply a $5 million tournament with 10 of the world's top 20 in the field.

Good news for people with celiac disease and other gluten sensitivity disorders AND food manufactures alike. The US Food and Drug Administration published a new regulation yesterday that finally defines the term "gluten-free" for voluntary food labeling.
From the press release: It (the regulation) requires that, in order to use the term "gluten-free" on its label, a food must meet all of the requirements of the definition, including that the food must contain less than 20 parts per million of gluten. The rule also requires foods with the claims "no gluten," "free of gluten," and "without gluten" to meet the definition for "gluten-free."
FYI: With this standard, the term gluten-free does allow some gluten ( less than 20 parts per million of gluten), so it's not technically gluten-free. Some gluten may be found in products with this designation.
More good news….

News 12 at 6, may 2, 2008
First up in this edition or Recall and Ripoffs is a ripoff. The FTC has just ordered a Canadian company to pay 5 million bucks for breaking the law.
The companies are collectively known as Pacific Liberty, but there are several different names they were also known by. The FTC says the company charged people more than 300 bucks and the customers were to receive prepaid credit cards and free gifts such as cell phones.
Nobody who paid up received any of those things. Again the company was known by many names, but some of them are Libery Wide Info Services and Atlantic One Info Services Group.
Call 1-877-FTC-HELP for more info.
Next up is a recall. 84,000 Children's Storage bins are being called back. They were made by Magus Industry of Taiwan and were sold at Lowe's from March of 2007 to February of 2008 for 6 bucks.
The reason for the recall is too much lead in the paint. Return them to Lowe's for a full refund.

Indonesian Bank-Owning Rules Not Regressive: Fitch's Srivastava
Ambreesh Srivastava, Fitch Ratings' head of financial institutions in South and Southeast Asia, says proposed rules capping ownership of Indonesian banks won't be applied to current holdings and only to investments made after they become law.
Bank Indonesia deputy governor Halim Alamsyah last month proposed rules that would cap non-bank financial institutions' ownership of Indonesian banks at 40 percent, non-financial companies' ownership at 30 percent and families or individuals' ownership at 20 percent.
Srivastava spoke at Fitch's global banking conference in Singapore today.
On new ownership rules:
"The rules are not necessarily regressive. If it was on a retrospective basis, there would have been cause for concern. The good thing is it's on a prospective basis. Indonesia, from a longer-term perspective, needs foreign capital to fund the growth opportunities in that economy. Going forward, foreign banks will have to strategize on their Indonesia plans."
On Singapore-based DBS Group Holdings Ltd.'s bid to buy a 67 percent stake in PT Bank Danamon Indonesia:
"If the regulations are taken at their face value, then the DBS-Danamon deal cannot go through in its present form. We don't want to speculate what is going to happen there."
On regional foreign-ownership rules:
"My sense is that Indonesia is now coming more in line with what's going on in the region in terms of foreign ownership limits. Not surprisingly, they are trying to benchmark themselves against ownership limits in the region."
On historical foreign ownership:
"In the aftermath of the Asian financial crisis, when the banking system was badly ravaged, they needed foreign capital. They were far more liberal. Many foreign institutions have close to 100 percent ownership in large institutions. Thirty percent of the banking system is in foreign hands. Clearly, as Indonesia has been doing a lot better in recent years, it has also become a nationalistic issue of sorts."

By Sgt. Michael Blalack, 1/25th SBCT Public AffairsNovember 26, 2013
From Nov. 18-22 every Soldier in the brigade participated in the Army's Ready & Resilient Campaign which focuses on health promotion, risk reduction and suicide prevention in the ranks.
"Our Ready and Resilient program is part of a larger campaign going on right now throughout the entire Army," said Maj. Kevin Wainwright, brigade chaplain for the 1/25 SBCT. "What we're doing is making sure that whenever a Soldier is faced with adversity, in any form, they have the ability to overcome that adversity, and they are aware of all the available resources and support that they may need."
Throughout the week Soldiers attended classes and participated in resiliency and teambuilding events taught by health professionals from Fort Wainwright, as well as guest speakers, and Stryker Brigade leadership.
The battalions also had team building physical activities that took advantage of the challenging Alaskan winter by conducting various outdoor competitions and sports events.
"Resiliency is the mental, physical, and emotional strength to overcome adversity," said Col. Brian Reed, commander of the 1/25 SBCT. "It's at the core of who we are."
In addition to the Army-wide topics of preventing sexual assault, risk reduction, suicide prevention, and physical fitness, Alaska Soldiers focused on preventing domestic abuse and alcohol-related incidents.
"Soldiers are tough," said Capt. Scott Dennis, chaplain for the 2nd Battalion, 8th Field Artillery Regiment. "But they are also human, and we have to recognize and care for the complete person, and that's what this is about."
Soldiers stationed in Fort Wainwright have the additional stress and difficulties introduced by Alaska's extreme weather and long, dark winters. Preventing domestic violence and substance abuse that can result from winter-induced depression has long been a priority of Alaska's command teams.
"Here in Alaska, there is a lot to do, but you have to be intentional about it," said Wainwright. "Otherwise Soldiers can develop a sense of isolation because there isn't a huge city a couple hours away like there is at most other posts in the Army. The other piece to that is short hours of daylight, and occasional extreme weather conditions can limit what we can do outside. So we're addressing the issue of how does a Soldier stay involved, not feel alone, not feel isolated, and build a sense of community, and draw strength from that. And Fairbanks is an incredibly supportive community."
The importance of enjoying Alaska responsibly and doing so with a close group of supportive friends is a message Chaplain Wainwright really emphasizes to the Soldiers of the Stryker Brigade.
"A big part of this is teaching our younger Soldiers how to identify risks, and thereby prevent situations that could lead to suicide, to sexual assault, or to alcohol abuse," said Wainwright. "I'm not saying that that is the only demographic where we could have problems, but these are the leaders of tomorrow's Army. We're teaching them now how to be proactive and intervene before something even happens, how to prevent, and not just react. And a contributing factor is making a group of friends that will positively reinforce the Army values that we all live by."

Cajon Summit LbNA # 19721
|Lee & Nancy
|Placed Date
|Dec 18 2005
|San Bernardino
|Oak Hills, CA
|Found By
|Last Found
|Apr 7 2011
|Hike Distance
UPDATE: Bothe boxes alive and well - 11/25/2008.
Box 1. Water Tower
Exit I-15 at the top of Cajon Summit at Oak Hills Road and head south on the East side of the Freeway along the frontage road. As you pass the Windmill on your right, count the number of blades (____) (even number) - if blades spinning to fast to count, you can use the number of ladder steps on that tower minus 1 or 2; and after you pass the water tower, look back and note the number of letters (____) written on the towers tank. Proceed along this road as it turns to dirt and jogs left, toward some other water tanks, and park in the turn out to your right. After enjoying the view, proceed to the small peak about 150 yards at ((blades letters) times 14) degrees. There is not much of a path to this location, so please be careful of your footing. The box is located under rocks and debris at the base and rear of the juniper bush that is adjacent to the Manzanita bush just over (blades) steps at (letters times 10) degrees.
Box 2. Windmill
Return to the road and continue in the same (downhill) direction until you get to large turnout on your left, just before the road begins a significantly steeper decline. Park there and head over to the large Manzanita bush (almost a small tree) on the right side of the steep declining road. From the backside of the Manzanita, proceed (blades times 2) steps to the large bush at ((blades letters) times 12) degrees. The box is under rocks and debris behind the bush. Please secure and re-hide well.
Note: This dirt road area may require an Adventure Pass - although I did not see it posted. Probably could be avoided if you park at the end of the paved road and hike in from there. Maybe 1 mile round trip.

Okay, take it easy on me... I'm new at this.If you guys have any tips on the guitar parts I'd appreciate it because I'm teaching myself and no one's heard me play yet, and this is super embarrassing for me but I could use the feedback. rrrrriiiiiiight... PS. The sound quality is terrible as I recorded this on my mp3 player, and when I converted it from a wav file it went all crackly... so now it sounds like I recorded it on an Edison cylinder. A murder contest,You know I'll win itCause in every mailbox, there be a head with a knife in it
Hey, I like it. The Edison effect makes it sound all warm & cuddly, like a Donna Heyward sweater.Nice singing voice somewhere under those crackles, too.~Heaven is a place whereNothing ever happens
For $20 you could get one of those:and ultimateguitar.com usually have decent tabs.You have a lovely voice, though, and decent skills in guitar strumming can be gained in only a few months, so I expect you to achieve interesting recordings very soon :-)Would you sing The girl who swallowed the world if I wrote it for you?The times we live in are the least moustache of all.
Thank you Mathieu and Lucas, my apostles of song. I really appreciate the feedback!And yes, I would totally sing that Froggy, but I probably couldn't play it. Find me a dodgy karaoke track to sing over and we may have something. A murder contest,You know I'll win itCause in every mailbox, there be a head with a knife in it
I think I saved some Bowie karaoke tracks somewhere. I will look for them.The times we live in are the least moustache of all.
Have I told you that you are beautiful?http://shynsweetlilme.deviantart.com/

Arriving in Belize City we found Charlie with no problems at all, especially because he was holding a sign that said "Happy Birthday Jess!" on it!!! It was so awesome for him to be so thoughtful and it really brightened Jess' day. On the way to the cave system Charlie spoke to us about much of the Mayan culture and how his life was growing up in this amazing country. He also told us a lot about what we would see inside the caves, the many different formations inside, and he opened our imaginative minds up so we could recognize the formations when we saw them.
Charlie Chan from charliescavetubing.com was extremely attentive in helping us get all our equipment we would need for the tubing adventure and his personality really makes you feel welcome, like you belong there, instead of just visiting for a few hours. On the hike through the jungle Charlie showed us many different types of plants and wildlife including a huge termite nest and the beautiful Sensitive Mimosa. Charlie took us up higher than most of the cave excursions go, to a second cave system where we got to do a cliff jump into a sacred Mayan pool. If you don't want to do the cliff jump its ok, there is another way down, but do the jump! It isn't that high or scary, just tons of fun. Charlie will take you through the caves safely and give you his rich mixture of knowledge and excitement. I HIGHLY recommend Charlie Chan at charliescavetubing.com.
After the tubing adventure through the Mayan caves and jungle you can indulge in one of the best meals I had the whole cruise, traditional rice and beans and chicken, before hopping on the bus to head home. Charlie really made our entire trip and we will never forget him. Next time we are in Belize we are definitely going to book with Charlie Chan for some cave tubing adventures. BELIZE IT!
On the way to the ruins you will stop at a gift store with many handmade crafts. In my opinion, this place was REALLY overpriced and unless you specifically fall in love with something, hold off and you might see it somewhere else for cheaper. I felt like this particular shop as well as most at the ruins were targeting unknowing tourists.
The Ruins of Tulum were absolutely beautiful. My girlfriend had been to some different ruins, supposedly the biggest in the Mayan world, but this being my first time, I was in awe. The real shocker came when viewing the beach right next to the ruins. We had time for a dip in the ocean and hopefully you will to because its very hot at the ruins. The beach here is so inviting...like something from National Geographic.
Try the restaurant at the ruins where you can get great tacos and burritos, etc. Definitely not your local Taco Bell, this food was delicious!
Booking through the cruise is a great idea when doing a long excursion like the Ruins of Tulum. You are sure to get back to the boat with no problems if you do this.
Also, establish a price for the taxi ride to wherever you are going right off the bat. Average flat rates for any destination on the island can be found with a quick search on the net. If you don't establish a price or have an idea how far away your destination is, expect a grand tour of the island at your expense.
Be sure to hit up Margaritaville if you have time. Always a party. Also, at the beach we went to, part of Seven Mile Beach, there is a little restaurant called Calico Jack's. They had the BEST Caribbean Jerk Chicken I've ever tasted...but it cost nearly $20! Grand Cayman is expensive...so expect that kind of thing. Also, be VERY aware of the exchange rate, and this goes for all ports. While you won't have trouble purchasing items with the USD in the Caymans, if you are wanting some souvenir currency be sure you are getting what you're supposed to if you aren't exchanging on the boat. This goes for ALL ports.
When you get off the boat in Roatan don't start shopping right away. You might get swarmed by peddlers but wait on it a bit, there are plenty of shops on the outskirts of the port than you can bargain with for a good price and it is also probably a bit safer. Don't be afraid though, the Honduran police are there to keep things under control.
If you plan on doing a Discover Scuba program, I recommend you go to your local dive shop first and ask them if they can let you get acclamated to breathing underwater before you try diving on the open water with the Discover Scuba program. My girlfriend was a bit overwhelmed and despite numerous attempts she couldn't follow through and decided diving wasn't for her, returning to the boat. Being certified, I enjoyed the dive thoroughly, despite not having the love of my life with me. I plan on helping her get comfortable in the pool and maybe trying it again one day. The folks at Discover Scuba were very understanding and gave us back more than half of my girlfriend's share of the dive expenses.
The reef itself, called "Sponges", was gorgeous and I've never seen so many different kinds of fish and sealife. If you can get comfortable as a first time diver, let me tell you that the reef is REALLY safe and you have nothing to worry about. It is ok if you have trouble and don't want to dive though, recognizing that you aren't ready is one of the most important aspects of diving. Once you get down to the reef though, I assure you, it will be something you won't soon forget.

Truthdig says:
A federal appeals court allows the state of Tennessee to offer anti-abortion license plates that read, "Choose Life." The court says that although the decision to offer the plates may be ill-advised, it does not contravene the First Amendment.
Of all the odd places for an abortion-rights battle to show up, state license plates has to be atop the list.
AP via Newsday:
NASHVILLE, Tenn.—A federal appeals court Friday allowed Tennessee to offer anti-abortion license plates bearing the message "Choose Life."
A three-judge panel of the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati overturned a lower-court ruling that said the tag illegally promoted only one side of the abortion debate.
"Although this exercise of government one-sidedness with respect to a very contentious political issue may be ill-advised, we are unable to conclude that the Tennessee statute contravenes the First Amendment," Judge John M. Rogers said in a 2-1 ruling.

What's in Obamacare, Part 14:
Encouraging Small Businesses To Keep Wages Low
Small Business Tax Credit:
The new Obamacare legislation will provide a tax credit to small businesses with no more than 25 employees. The tax credit will be equal to a percentage (50% or less) of the employers contributions to it's employees health insurance premiums.
Sounds Good Right?
Not quite, there's a caveat to the Obamacare small business tax credit. Businesses that pay their employees a smaller amount get a larger tax credit, and businesses that pay higher wages get a smaller tax credit. The amount of the tax credit is phased out by a ratio of the employers average annual wages. An employer that has average annual wages of $25,000.00 would receive a tax credit equal to 50% of the employers contributions to it's employees health insurance premiums. If the employer has average annual wages of $35,000.00 the tax credit is reduced to 20%. If the employers average annual wage is $50,000.00 they are not eligible for the tax credit.
Additionally, businesses must have fewer than 10 employees to qualify for the full tax credit. So, if you happen to have between 11 and 25 employees you get less. If you have 25 or more employees you get nada.
So What's The Problem?
Well, the problem is that this small business tax credit provides an incentive for small businesses to keep wages low and slow the creation of new jobs. After all, if you were a small business owner and you knew that you could get a tax credit for keeping your employees wages low, wouldn't you be inclined to do so? And if you would lose the tax credit if you hired more than 10 employees, would you hire more people? Probably not
Makes no mistake, this tax credit is NOT an attempt by the Obama administration to help small businesses provide health insurance to their employees, nor is it an attempt to stimulate the growth of jobs. This is an attempt by the Obama administration to stagnate the job market and keep individuals and businesses dependent on the graceful, loving, care of an imperial, federal government. I can just hear the liberals whispering in our ears, "don't you worry your pretty little heads about responsibility, we can provide you freedom from necessity, we will take care of all of your needs." Doesn't it just make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?

Post subject: core night - how long does it take?!
My six week old slept his core night 10-3am at 4 weeks 3 days old, 11 nights later I had not fed him during this time and he slept it again. We moved his bed time forward half an hour but since then he has not slept later than 2am, sometimes waking earlier. I am still not feeding him until gone 3am and keep him calm in his moses basket with a dummy, patting and soothing words.
We follow a routine every night of bath, feed, bed and the feed is an expressed 5-6oz which he chooses how much he takes on. I am breastfeeding the rest of the time. I wonder if he is waking for his dummy although he goes to sleep without it? Am I establishing a bad pattern of waking for a night time feed?
Will he ever sleep his core night again?! I may just be being impatient..but what I have read has said 'within a few days your baby will sleep at least the hours of his core night'..this is not the case!
Any response gratefully received!

Tom Cable had plenty to say at halftime Sunday with his Raiders and the lowly Denver Broncos tied at 17. The coach lit into his team with a fiery speech that players cited as a motivating factor in their outscoring the Broncos 22-6 after intermission en route to a 39-23 victory at the half-empty, rain-drenched Oakland Coliseum.
"We got chewed out at halftime," defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said. "Cabes came in and cussed out everybody on the team and kind of got our attention. "... He was just like, 'Man, don't give nobody no hope. Let's not come in here after the game and talk about we missed this chance, we didn't take advantage of our opportunity.' He wanted us to go out there in the second half and step on their necks."
The Raiders did just that, breaking another tie -- this time 20-20 -- in the third quarter and cruising to a victory that kept alive their ever-dimming playoff hopes.
The Raiders' situation is simple. They have to win their remaining games against the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday and the Kansas City Chiefs on Jan. 2. They also need the Chiefs to lose to the Tennessee Titans next Sunday, and the San Diego Chargers to lose at least one of their final two games, against the Cincinnati Bengals and Broncos.
Given that, the Raiders would finish 9-7 and win the AFC West by virtue of a tiebreaker.
Oakland will know if it has a shot before taking the field against the Colts, as the Chiefs-Titans contest should be over before the Raiders and Colts kick off at the Coliseum.
There is no way for the Raiders (7-7) to earn one of the two AFC wild-card playoff berths because 10 wins is the minimum it's going to take for those spots.
Cable said he impressed upon his players at halftime the need to play better than they did in the first half, when they had two passes intercepted, fumbled once, allowed a 40-yard touchdown run on a third-and-24 play, gave up a 33-yard scoring pass despite double coverage and had a TD negated by a penalty.
"There's no reason to be calm or rational at that point," the Raiders coach said. "That's just not us. That's not who we've become or what we're trying to get to. And, ultimately, if we can get some help and have a chance at this thing at the end, we've got to be better than that."
Once again, Darren McFadden spearheaded the Raiders' offense with 119 yards rushing and 39 yards receiving. Overall, the Raiders rushed for 264 yards.
"The rushing game always helps," quarterback Jason Campbell said. "It's like the best friend of a quarterback when you're in this league, because the defense will give you so many different looks.
"If you're able to run the ball, it creates some one-on-one matchups (in the passing game), it helps the play-action game. That's how we took our main strides in the second half, because we went to play-action because of the way we were running the ball."
Campbell was 8 of 12 for 180 yards and one touchdown in the second half against a Broncos defense geared toward stopping the run.
"The difference in the game was we were able to throw the ball and get some nice plays out of it," Cable said. "Jason did a nice job of that."
The Raiders no doubt are sad to see the last of the Broncos this season. On Sunday, the Raiders rolled up 502 yards against a Denver defense that they roasted for 508 yards and 59 points in their first meeting Oct. 24.
Oakland certainly is kicking itself for losing close games against the Arizona Cardinals, 49ers, Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars.
"You don't know that it's going to be a big deal for you down the way, but those bit us," cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha said.
The Raiders are 5-0 in divisional games but 2-7 outside the AFC West. It's conceivable they could go undefeated in divisional play and still not win the AFC West, something that hasn't happened since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970. The 29 other teams that went undefeated in such games won their division.
"We just got to learn how to learn to win outside the division," Campbell said.
Until that happens, Kelly said, the Raiders aren't going to take the next step that could land them in the playoffs for the first time in eight seasons.
"It doesn't mean anything if we are at home, watching Kansas City in the playoffs," Kelly said of being 5-0. "It's something nice to say but, at the end of the day, it doesn't mean anything. You don't even get a T-shirt."

The Brothers Karamazov
by Fyodor Dostoevsky
The Brothers Karamazov Book 10, Chapter 4 Summary
- When Alyosha comes out, Kolya gives him the back story on his relationship with Ilyusha. When Ilyusha first arrived at school, he was picked on by the kids. But Kolya appreciated his fighting spirit and defended him, and Ilyusha took to following Kolya around.
- One day, Smerdyakov told Ilyusha that it would be really cool if he placed a pin in a piece of bread and gave it to a dog. This dog – the same Zhuchka that everyone's searching high and low for – eats the bread and runs off squealing in pain.
- Filled with remorse, Ilyusha breaks down in tears before Kolya. Kolya isn't having any of that "sentimental slop" and sends Smurov to tell Ilyusha that he's breaking off their friendship for a short time.
- Without Kolya's protection, Ilyusha is again pestered by the other kids, which led to the stabbing and stone throwing described in Book 4, Chapter 3.

Would you like to drive traffic to your website by creating a blog? Do you need search engine optimized content? Are you looking for someone to write your book or edit your mistakes?
With less than $5 you can hire a guy/girl to mix a bunch of words into an "article." With less than $5 you can be the proud owner of a bunch of sentences.
But if you're looking for more than that, if you're looking for writing that moves people, inspires them, makes them want more and gets them flocking to your site, then stick around.
My name is Daniel Colisnicencu. As a professional writer, I know I can satisfy your content needs. Check out my About page for information on my background and my portfolio for a taste of my work.
"Impressive writing, super clean and highly conscious.
Send me a price Daniel."
This is what I can do for you:
1. SEO (search engine optimized) articles of any length and on any topics. Most articles on the web today are around 500 words long. Larger articles will not necessarily help your marketing efforts in a significant way. Because they take longer to write, they also cost more.
2. SEO web content. Your web pages are made of this kind of text. By optimizing them for today's search engines, they will drive more organic traffic to your website.
Once upon a time, an article could have a keyword density of 6% or more and get away with it. Such pages repeated keywords endlessly, annoying readers.
These days, search engines have improved. They prefer a themed approach, where the density is much lower (1% or less), and synonyms of the keyword are used throughout the text. Such an approach has the added benefit of making your content more enjoyable and easier to read.
At the end of your article/web content, I will supply a report on how well themed it is as well as the theme words and phrases used.
That was fast! I loved the articles. Will definitely want more."
Arnost, Bulgary
3. E-book ghostwriting. Would you like your autobiography to be put on paper? Do you have a great book idea, but you don't know how to write it? I can be your pen. You will be the sole benefactor of the e-book and it will have your name on it as author.
4. Proofreading and editing. If you have doubts about a piece of writing's quality, you can send it my way for a final inspection. I will make the necessary adjustments to make sure it meets your needs.
"Hi Daniel,
I've been through the article in detail and it looks good. Really good. A proper English lesson!"
Dee, USA
5. Copywriting. Convincing your website's visitors to subscribe or buy your products can be a difficult and time consuming task. By letting me do the hard work, you will save yourself countless hours and customers who would have otherwise been lost.
"The first calls came in just now. They loved your ad."
Olivia, UK
6. Web Design. My partners can build virtually any system somebody would want. Simply send in your request, and I will get you in touch.
The deadline for each project will be adjusted according to your needs.
For more information on the above services, please contact me; I usually respond within 24 hours.

The residency is divided into four basic educational periods. The internship year provides an excellent background in general medical knowledge and skills prior to starting Anesthesiology training. After completion of internship residents begin their Clinical Anesthesiology training. The first year starts with Basic Orientation, and progresses to a generalized clinical year. The CA-2 subspecialty year is followed by the CA-3 year which includes many elective options to individualize training. All rotations and assignments that are required by the American Board of Anesthesiology are provided for our residents in our local integrated and affiliated institutions in the Birmingham area.
During basic orientation, all new residents are assigned to a senior resident preceptor and faculty advisor for the first month of clinical anesthesia training. During this introductory period, the new resident learns the daily operation of an anesthesia resident. Basic clinical patient care skills are learned, as well as duties and responsibilities of a resident at UAB. At the end of the first month the residents begin working on their own in the operating room with very close faculty supervision. This system eases transition to operative patient care.
During the first two months, in addition to other conferences, the new residents attend a series of introductory tutorial lectures and discussions covering basic topics in anesthesia. Small group instruction on the anesthesia simulator is used for equipment checkout and induction training.
One of the strengths of the training program is the variety, acuity, and volume of clinical experience.

Online Extra: Q&A With MIT's Nicholas Negroponte
The cyber-soothsaying author of Being Digital looks at what's next: Peer-to-peer is key
Nicholas Negroponte, founding chairman of MIT's Media Laboratory, has long been a leading analyst of the Digital Age. The Media Lab has been a trailblazer in the area of study and experimentation on human communication. And Negroponte's 1995 book, Being Digital, was a best-selling guide to the coming era. He responded, via e-mail from Europe, to questions from BusinessWeek's Stephen Baker. Edited excerpts from their exchange follow:
Q: Which new products or services are likely to make the biggest splash?
A:Peer-to-peer is key. I mean that in every form conceivable: cell phones without towers, sharing leftover food, bartering, etc. Furthermore, you will see micro-wireless networks, where everyday devices become routers of messages that have nothing to do with themselves.
Nature is pretty good at networks, self-organizing systems. By contrast, social systems are top-down and hierarchical, from which we draw the basic assumption that organization and order can only come from centralism.
Q: One idea is that this jousting between industries will create friction, fights, and startling innovation. Are there examples where the blending of two industries really did spark some magic?
A:Companies cannot really see beyond their current customer base. They explicitly or implicitly do things to protect their current customers. And the last person to want real change is your customer. This is why most new ideas come from small companies that have nothing to lose.
Q: In the past, different technologies and standards protected companies and industries like sets of moats and borders. Digital technology and Internet protocol wipe away many of these defenses. Yet plenty of standards wars continue, in everything from DVDs to digital music formats. Which standards will make a difference? Which ones will disappear?
A:Standards are often used to protect the incumbent or a domestic market. China is doing this at the moment, to its own peril. We have seen this time and time again. When the French did it for TV [with the SECAMsystem], it cost them a great deal and failed miserably. If only the Chinese would look at history.
But the long term is brighter, not because people will get smarter or less protective but because standards, as we know them, will play less of a role. More and more will be down in software, like software-definable radios, so you can download a new device (a new standard) as needed, vs. build it into a product (as we did with physical items, like plugs).
Q: Asia is already gaining great strength in the wireless industry, and the Asians dominate consumer electronics. As computing makes its way into the living room, will Asian companies win there too?
A:Without question. Samsung is already pushing Sony (it's also Asian) out of the living room. Kids five years from now will know Samsung as the premier consumer-electronics company.
Q: Some would have it that many of the great innovations are going to come from outsiders who figure out how to harness new technology and then use it to lay waste to the big companies' business plan in the process. One example might be [peer-to-peer Net telephony startup] Skype. Is innovation more likely to come from popular or subversive movements?
A:As I said above, innovation comes from those who stand to lose the least from it. That said, lets separate what Skype is doing from innovation itself. Skype is remarkable (I know them well) and will change the landscape radically. However, they have done so not by innovating and inventing either peer-to-peer or IP telephony, but by executing extremely well. The actual innovations came long before.
Q: Where are we on the tech cycle?
A:Key is the question of where do new ideas come from. Historically, four places: government labs, big corporations, startup companies, and research universities. Government labs are shrinking (in the U.S., at least). Big companies are looking closer term, and even the most technological companies spend less than 1% of sales on research. Startups have suffered the burst bubble.
So this leaves universities somewhat alone. This isn't meant to be self-serving, but it plays nicely into the change in higher education -- it has to become more research university-oriented than just classroom affairs.

Amendments to Novartis and Schering-Plough's combination respiratory therapies collaboration has given Novartis exclusive worldwide development and marketing rights to CMF149, a fixed-dose combination of its own long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist candidate, QAB149 (indacaterol), and Schering-Plough's inhaled corticosteroid, mometasone furoate.
Schering-Plough gets exclusive worldwide rights to a fixed-dose combination of mometasone furoate and formoterol (Foradil®), another Novartis long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist.
The companies will each be responsible for the development and commercialization costs of their respective combination therapies. There will also be a royalty sharing arrangement based on sales, and Schering-Plough will receive royalties and other compensation for Novartis' use of its Twisthaler delivery system for CMF149.
Both formoterol and mometasone furoate are already approved products, and the combination therapy is in Phase III development for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Schering-Plough said it expects to file for U.S. approval of the mometasone furoate/formoterol combination, for the treatment of asthma, during the first half of 2009. CMF149 is currently in Phase II development for the treatment of asthma and COPD.
