Office poster advertises the most badass public health initiative ever.
Can't tell if this workplace poster is advertising a public health initiative or an upcoming Jason Statham movie about a futuristic world in which natural resources have been depleted and cars now run on human blood. Statham leads a ragtag band of nomads in a race to drive a bloodmobile back to the civilian encampment before warlords overtake it by force. The bloodmobile is loaded with Type O-negative, the primo stuff, pure liquid gold that sells on the market for a thousand caps a pint. How, you ask, can blood be so valuable if it's something that everyone is able to draw from their own body and naturally replenish on a steady basis? Why don't you just shut up and go see Larry Crowne if you're going to be all "Mr. Questions" all the time?

From the desk of Pastor Lee
"Why Pray?"
All too often Christians underestimate the power of prayer, and or the reasons why we should pray. In studying the scriptures, I found some key reasons for prayer. First, it is a sin not to pray. 1 Samuel 12:23, Matthew 26:41, Luke 18:1. 1 Thessalonians 5:17, 1 Timothy 2:8 and Ephesians 6:18, these are just a few scripture references that exhort us to pray. Secondly, prayer is our way to communicate to our Father. You see in prayer, we can get the (mind or will) of God as I like to phrase it on all matters of life. All throughout the old testament when men of God came into a land to dwell the first thing they did was established a meeting place by building an altar, men like Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joshua and Daniel just to name a few. They all understood the importance of communicating with their God. Of course, communication is two-fold we call out to our Father, and then we listen for His response.
Psalms 34:17 states: the righteous (pray or cry) and the Lord heareth and rescued them out of all their troubles. Proverbs 15:29 is another scripture stating the Lord hearing our prayer, beloved if you don't call on him how can he hear you and answer. Let's explore another reason why we should pray it is one of the most powerful weapons you have as a Christian. Ephesians 6 states that prayer is part of the whole armor of God. Jesus who is our example prayed early and often. Mark 1:35, Luke 6:12 and Mark 6:46 this he did not in a defensive posture but more of an offensive posture, in other words, he stayed prayed up in order to be in the perfect will of God and to attack the strategies of the devil.
This is why you don't see Jesus praying out devils, or praying for the sick. Mark 1:29-3:5. After Jesus prayed to the Father or literally sought instruction and drew strength from being in communion with him, he would then go in the midst of the people and exercise the authority over all demonic forces. You see prayer is as vital to the Christian as the heart is to the human body. Your heart pumps blood to every vital organ in it and if the blood flow ceases so does that organ. This is "Why Pray."

No age limit, no grade limit! And a little time still left to make the decision and register for what could be one of the most unforgettable alpine weeks of your lifetime! Closing date for registrations is Sunday 26th May. -
Sandy Allan on Mazeno Ridge climb Sandy Allan will talk about his and his climbing partner Rick Allen's successful attempt of the Mazeno Ridge of Nanga Parbat - the longest ridge in Himalayas and one that was dubbed the "last great problem of the Himalayas". After their team decided to abandon the climb, Sandy and Rick still went for it, with only a pack of biscuits for food. Despite all odds, they eventually reached the summit but it took them three full days to get down without any food or water, struggling through deep snow at the limits of survival. Their ascent has become recognised as the most impressive British ascent on an 8,000m peak in a generation and their effort was acknowledged by an award at this year's Piolet d'Or and at Chamonix Mountain Festival you will have a rare chance to hear their story first-hand.
�Petit Dru � The Disintegrating Mountain� with Andy Parkin and the film's producer Jochen Hemmleb A premiere of the documentary about the north face of the Petit Dru deformed and destroyed by a rock slide in 1997 and about two top alpinists - the Brit Andy Parkin and the American Steve House. The lives of both have been changed by dramatic accidents but for this film, Parkin and House climb the classical north face route of the Petit Dru together. Andy Parkin and the film's producer Jochen Hemmleb will be at the screening in person.
Caroline George - A female perspective on technical ice-climbing Caroline was introduced to climbing at a young age by her parents. Despite graduating with a law degree from university and speaking four languages, Caroline decided to pursue climbing professionally. She competed for three years in the ice climbing world cup and has worked as a sponsored athlete since 2000. Some of her accomplishments include: first ascents of difficult ice and mixed routes in the Canadian Rockies, ascents of El Cap and Half Dome in Yosemite Valley, the North Face of the Eiger, Grands Jorasses and Matterhorn, the Freney Pillar on Mont Blanc, first ascents rock climbing in Ethiopia and first ice climbing ascents in Iceland, Canada, Norway and Antarctica. At Chamonix Mountain Festival, she will talk about her personal experience of the world of technical ice-climbing.

Hey guys-
I picked up an Alphaserver 1000a 5/400 from a friend of mine and I
want to get it going with Debian. Unfortunately, it appears that the
onboard SCSI controler causes the system to lock whenever it actually
writes to a HD. Hence, I've installed a secondary SCSI card (an
Adaptec PCI) and I can boot from the CD and install to the HDs on the
new controler, but I can't get the SRM console to boot from the other
card. Is this possiable? If not, is there a different card that the
system would allow me to boot from? (I have a lot sitting around)

"Excellent solo performance" Washington Post
"Edberg provided a moving and masterful performance of a difficult work. His tone was warm and rich throughout the range of his instrument and his technical ability was never in question. Although the work emphasizes the repetition of a few motives and themes, the work did not become tedious because Edberg was able to infuse each restatement with new meaning, interests and emotion. He propelled the musical line forward and carried the audience with him." Terre Haute Tribune Star
". . . he made contact with the muse and brought down all the inspiration. The recital was deeply felt, emotionally and musically exciting, and technically a strong mark in a career well ahead of schedule. . . . The concert was not only inspired and a technical achievement, but it was a formidable challenge for any cellist." Tampa Tribune
"Their recital Sunday was outstanding . . . played with artistry and fine musicianship. As with many musical families, there often exists a natural and innate understanding and sensitivity among performing members. The Edbergs' balance, rapport and total teamwork were superb; their interpretation and technical expertise excellent. . . . the involvement by both performers was extraordinary in these deeply moving compositions. . . .Eric played with great intensity and control . . ." St. Petersburg Times
". . . the star event of the evening [was] Eric Edberg's performance of Saint-Saens' First Cello Concerto. A big man with a big tone and a command of the broad sweep of the music, his performance was nonetheless outstanding for its small touches, the turns of phrases, the accuracy of intonation, and the balance with the orchestra. It seemed to be playing both faultless and effortless, a pleasure to observe and enjoy." Appleton Post-Crescent

AP: Driver in deadly Sherman bus crash used cocaine
The Associated Press reports today that the driver in last year's Sherman bus crash that killed 17 people had recently used cocaine.
From the report:
A drug test conducted on the driver involved in the Texas charter bus crash that killed 17 passengers last year showed evidence of recent cocaine use, according to records obtained by The Associated Press.
The National Transportation Safety Board found evidence of cocaine in a urine sample from Barrett Broussard during its investigation of the accident, according to documents prepared by the police department in Sherman, the North Texas city where the wreck occurred.
Broussard was at the wheel Aug. 8, 2008, when the bus carrying 55 members of Houston's Vietnamese community to a Catholic conclave in Missouri slammed through a highway bridge guard rail and landed beside a creek.

Humbled Brian O'Driscoll wants Paris 2000 repeat
Updated: Sunday, 09 Mar 2014 10:24 | Comments
- Brent Pope and Ronan O'Gara assess Ireland's win over Italy
- Ireland coach Joe Schmidt was pleased after their comprehensive win over Italy
- Man of the match Brian O'Driscoll gives his reation to the win over Italy
- Brian O'Driscoll makes final home appearance for Ireland
- Reaction from the RTÉ panel to Ireland's win over Italy
Man of the match Brian O'Driscoll has urged Ireland to repeat the heroics of Paris in 2000 in order to claim a Six Nations championship.
Ireland beat Italy 46-7 in the Leinster centre's last international appearance in Dublin, and their superior points difference means any win in France next week would almost certainly clinch the Six Nations title.
Ireland's last win away win against France came 14 years ago, courtesy of an O'Driscoll hat-trick.
O'Driscoll, who was replaced after 62 minutes, told RTÉ Sport: "There's a championship in this team, we need to go to France with huge positivity and try and relive what happened back in 2000.
"It's one thing playing in this jersey but it's another thing altogether winning in this jersey. We've build a big standard with this crop of players, capable of doing big things and we have to start that next week and win ourselves a second championship."
A slightly embarrassed O'Driscoll, who set a new international caps record of 140, added: "I haven't really let myself think about [the send-off], it's emotional, you know. It's been a huge part of my whole adult life and to leave here, it's going to be hard, but it's a good way to leave it and hopefully we set ourselves up for next week.
"I feel humbled by the reaction today, It seems a bit of a joke when you get man of the match for 60 minutes. I've loved my time playing in this jersey.
"Unfortunately, it does have to come to an end at some stage. I'm glad I'm able to go out at home with a big win.
"We work hard at set plays and I'm glad a few of them came off today and 'Sexto' got in for a couple of tries, if it wasn't for [today's occasion] that man would have been man of the match."

SIKESTON - While the majority of people will be at home Tuesday, spending time with loved ones, opening presents and eating way too much, there are those who will spend Christmas Day at work, just like any other day.
Telephone operators will be ensuring that everyone's calls get through.
Law enforcement officials will be protecting our city.
Employees at the power plant will be moving coal so residents have electricity.
And there are countless others.
Yet surprisingly, no one seems to mind too much.
"I guess it's not too bad," admitted one area law enforcement official who asked to remain anonymous. "It's pretty quiet around here, although it would be nice to be home on Christmas."
The Sikeston Post Office will be open until noon Christmas Eve, which means Montie Escue and his employees will report to work as usual.
"The letter carriers who've been here for years tell me they usually do a little business on Christmas Eve but by 11 a.m., it's dead. I guess everyone is at home cooking meals."
But as postmaster, Escue is one of those who'll make his way to the office Christmas Day - just in case.
He will go into the office at 5 a.m. Tuesday to see if there is anything to deliver. If so, letter carrier Danny Denton will begin making his rounds.
"It's just part of the job, I've been doing it for years," Escue said with a smile. "We shouldn't have anything to deliver, but I want to go in and make sure."
Peggy Freeland, manager of the Sikeston Huck's store, reported all their employees are expected to work Christmas Day, which actually works out pretty well.
"We're open 24-7, 365 days of the year," said Freeland. "We all work on Christmas Day, it takes all of us. It's so busy because there are so many places that are closed. Christmas is our busiest day of the year, even more than rodeo week. We're also really busy Christmas Eve night."
Freeland said customers come in Dec. 25 for everything from milk to bread to eggs. Strangely enough, disposable diapers are big sellers on this particular day.
But she and her staff won't be doing without Christmas, they simply have to work around it by celebrating early or later.
"We just accept the fact that we have to work Christmas Day, it's just part of the job and one of those things we have to do. We all have to work so there's no resentment for each other so that makes it nice and another plus is the customers come in in a good mood, joking and smiling, so it's not an unpleasant place to be Christmas Day."
And then there's Leslie Evetts who actually asked to work Christmas Day. Evetts, an OB nurse at the O'Bannon Family Care Center, said since her children are grown, she volunteers to work for those who are scheduled to work Dec. 25 and have young families.
"My family has their Christmas on Christmas Eve so I still have Christmas, just a little early. I offer to work for people who have young children at home so they can be at home with them, that's what Christmas is all about. I was able to be home with my kids Christmas Day when they were little. I usually work weekends so if Christmas falls then I am obligated to work, but if it falls during the week, like this year, it's just something I like to do for others."
As an added bonus for her good deed, Evetts has the privilege of spending Christmas with women who are coming in to deliver babies, which makes it all the more special.
"It's kind of a neat thing," she said.

LOS ANGELES, CA – The trouble with falling behind early is the workload that is needed to recover, to rebound from those early troubles. For the Kings against the Nashville Predators tonight, they found themselves battling a two-goal deficit throughout most of the contest. In what was a rather lethargic first 40 minutes played by the Kings tonight, the final 20 minutes didn't prove to be enough to erase their early miscues and mistakes.
The Kings were without arguably their most electrifying forward tonight in Jeff Carter, who sat out his first game with an undisclosed lower body injury. The Kings had the help of the recently called up Tyler Toffoli though, who played in his first NHL game this season.
Carter Hutton started in the crease for Nashville, and successfully took upon a flurry of Kings shots, stopping 35 of the Kings' 38 pucks put on net.
A lack of discipline and a struggling penalty kill unit haunted the Kings in the first period, as the Predators buried both of their first period goals during man-advantage situations. The Kings finished the first frame strong, however, as Anze Kopitar scored his third goal of the season just :17 seconds after Nasvhille recorded their second goal, with just :37.2 seconds remaining in the period.
Unfortunately, Kopitar's late first period goal didn't transition into a momentum boost to start the second period, as the Kings failed to develop any quality scoring chances, and surrendered yet another goal to the Predators midway through the second frame.
Whatever was said in the Kings' dressing room during the second intermission definitely gave this roster a wake-up call, as they came out looking better and much more determined than they had all night.
The third period was a different ballgame. Dustin Brown tipped in his third goal of the season to cut the deficit to one goal midway through the period, and just 1:37 later, Mike Richards buried home a rebound from a Tyler Toffoli shot to tie the game at three.
The comeback was short-lived, however, as Nashville's David Legwand slammed home a rebound past Jonathan Quick to put the Predators up 4-3 with under four minute remaining in the contest.
A last-ditch effort, with Jonathan Quick pulled from his crease, presented a flurry of shots and a couple of golden opportunities for the Kings – but to no avail. Their slow start proved to be too much to overcome; tonight at least.
WELCOME BACK: Darryl Sutter didn't hesitate to get Tyler Toffoli involved in his first game back in a Kings uniform. Toffoli saw 19:23 of time on the ice, the fourth-most of any forward on the roster tonight. Toffoli had the most shots (6) of any forward tonight, and recorded an assist on the Kings' third goal.
EMPTY SHOTS: The Kings unloaded in the shot department once again tonight, tossing 38 pucks on Nashville's goaltender. Much of the game, though, the Kings were out of sync, with no rebounds or second-chance opportunities developing from their shots.
QUICK FIX: Jonathan Quick uncharacteristically gave up a handful of goals, on a low number of shots. The Nashville Predators had just 17 shots on Quick tonight, and put four of them past the Kings netminder. For a goaltender, sometimes it's harder to stay sharp with the fewer shots you see.
FIRST-AID: Forward Jarret Stoll left tonight's contest in the second period for further evaluation on an undisclosed injury suffered during the game. No timetable for his return, or details on the supposed injury, have surfaced.
PERSONAL POINTS: Anze Kopitar has 10 points (3G, 7A) in his last 10 games. Justin Williams has nine points (3G, 6A) in his last seven games. Mike Richards has six points (3G, 3A) in his last six games.

Focus Stocks
Below Support: Delta
Published on Friday, 26 October 2012 06:12 Written by TradersHuddle Wire
New York, October 26th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:DAL) closed the trading session at $9.64 below calculated support at $9.72. The stock broke long setups, prompting the bulls to worry that this move might give the bears the upper hand.
Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:DAL) provides scheduled air transportation for passengers, freight, and mail over a network of routes throughout the United States and internationally. The company has major hubs in Atlanta, Cincinnatti, Detroit, Salt Lake City, New Jork, Tokyo and Amsterdam.
Delta's stock was trading in a well defined range with support at $9.72 and resistance at $10.40; given that this range was broken traders will be closely monitoring the stock's price action for clues of direction.
From a technical perspective, it can be expected that previous support becomes resistance, as the new range gets defined. However, $9.72 will remain in focus as Delta's price action places the stock near the broken support. Traders will be waiting to see if it can bounce back and return to its previous range.
Traders wanting to establish a short position in Delta can do so if the stock breaks the intraday low, or if the stock bounces back and selling materializes again at previous support of $9.72. However, if traders want to build a long position, the best entry point to do so is when the price action takes the stock back to calculated support.

User and Group Authentication
Office administrators and even some home users will appreciate the option to setup user groups and access policies for individual users.
To start down the path of managed access, you must first setup and enable ADS.
After enabling support for the function you can start by adding local users. If at some point you need to edit users access or remove them entirely, the User area is where those options are found.
It is also possible to make group policies and add users to a specific group.
One very nice feature is the ability to upload or download a backup file that holds the user policy data.
Application Server
Using your NAS as an application server is quite easy and the Application Server area is where you configure your applications. Later in this article we will discuss the Thecus User Communities and how they have managed to build custom applications that add to the functionality of Thecus NAS servers.
Out of the box Thecus includes two applications. The first is the print server. You can attach a USB printer to one of the many USB ports on a Thecus NAS.
The second application included with the NAS handles iTunes. I have to admit that I am not the biggest Apple fan so you will have to explore this one on your own.

Force, Friction and Washington
Students will learn about the intuitive meanings of Newton's first and third Laws of Motion through coin related science experiments.
Coin Type(s)
- Quarter
Coin Program(s)
- Generic
Major Subject Area Connections
- Science
- Sixth grade
- Seventh grade
- Eighth grade
Class Time
Sessions: One
Session Length: 90 minutes
Total Length: 46-90 minutes
- Whole group
- Small groups
Terms and Concepts
- Force
- Friction
- Newton's Laws of Motion at a site such as csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/lect/history/newton3laws.html
- U.S. quarters, 2 per group of 2 or 3 students
- Graphing paper
- Pencils
- Different surfaces such as slate, carpet, grass, cement
- Tape measure
Bookmark the site or print out the information.
- Discuss with students how people try to find answers to their questions. We are constantly trying to understand our world and asking questions like Why do the sun and moon move through the sky, why does it get dark, and why do things fall to the ground. Isaac Newton, who was born in 1642, guessed that there must be some basic laws that governed or controlled these and other motions. He was right, and he discovered those laws that are today known as Newton's three laws of motion.
- Write on the board Newton's First and Third Laws of Motion:
Law 1: Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.
Law 3: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- Explain to the students that they will be working in groups of 2 or 3 to explore these ideas. Each group will have 2 quarters, graph paper, a tape measure and something to write with. They will need a flat surface to work on.
- Have the students conduct the following experiments and record their observations.
- Slide a quarter across a smooth surface (slate) and then across a rough surface (carpet). Try to use the same force for each surface. Write down your observations.
- Place one quarter about 12 inches from another quarter on a smooth surface. Hit one quarter so that it slides and hits the other quarter. (It works well to flick with your finger and thumb.) It may take a few tries to hit it, using different forces. Record your observations.
- Have the students come back together and discuss their findings.
- Introduce the concept of Friction (the force that resists relative motion between two bodies in contact).
- Talk about how the experiments illustrate Newton's laws.
Have students hit the quarter at different angles. (With some practice, they can see how forces are vectors and different striking angles produce different results, but still equal and opposite reactions.)
Use the students' observations recorded during the experiments to ascertain whether they have met the lesson objectives.

Those David Miliband Ideas for BBC TV Shows in Full
David Miliband is looking to "do a Portillo", and make money from TV. Sorry, I mean make high-quality programs that enrich the cultural lives of the viewing public. It has emerged that the former Labour leader-in-waiting pitched some ideas to BBC executives recently. A copy of what appears to be his agent's list of proposals has been passed to this blog.
"Hi Liz, great to see you at lunch the other day with Alan Yentob. Love his idea for a Yentob Week on BBC2 and BBC4. All of the best and most innovative programs he's made down the years shown over the course of one week? What a treat. Anyway, as I mentioned, my new client David Miliband is very keen to explore various cross-platform creative opportunities going forward. I'm just going to throw in a few ideas here to see what sticks, and you can bounce back your feedback. Profile for David, or money, is not really what this is about, although we would demand "Yentob rates" and a slot in prime time. But really it's about David wanting the chance to put something back culturally, rather than keep his name in the public eye until it's time…
So, how about…
1. Strictly Politics. The whole "politician does Strictly thing" has been done to death (Widdy, Vince, etc). Why not turn it on its head? The nation's top dancers run for office, trained by a team of leading failed politicians. Public votes one dancer out each Saturday. The winner gets to run for parliament for real in a constituency at the next general election (maybe in Ed Miliband's seat?). David to host in the Bruce Forsyth role. Could Tess Daly make the leap into political programming? If not, Tessa Jowell is available to co-host.
2. Great Socialist Rail Journeys of the World. Forget Michael Palin and Portillo, this would be an info-travelogue with added intellectual content. David lets the train take the strain as he travels in the footsteps of some of the great socialist thinkers. Helsinki to St.Petersburg, as travelled by Lenin. Moscow to Siberia, as travelled by millions. London to Sheffield, in the manner of Neil Kinnock in 1992 and London to Glasgow (the sleeper)—in the bar—as experienced by generations of Scottish Labour MPs returning home after a busy week in the capital.
3. Brothers. Why are some brothers more successful than other brothers? And what drives some brothers to put ambition before family? Is it just naked ambition? And will they—in the end—regret their ruthlessness? David explores a great mystery that has fascinated and obsessed men, women and former Foreign Secretaries down the ages.
4. From Moscow to Muswell Hill. This is the idea on which David is most keen (I can picture your face Liz but stay with me, I promised David I would have a go at pitching this one!). Basically he wants to do a history of the North London-left, in 56 parts. It would be partly autobiographical and chart the evolving attitudes to subjects such as class solidarity, engagement in the Labour movement, capitalism and markets. Why has the attitude to markets shifted so substantially, particularly with regards to the housing market? Is this because the post-war generation of academics, publishers etc who bought houses in North London have seen property values soar? Or is there something deeper at work?
5. Match of the Day. David is very big on football! He watches his beloved "Gooners" (I think that's what the football cognoscenti call Arsenal!) every week. Is Gary Lineker moving on as you intimated? If so, David v. keen to take over. But he won't make any move until Gary says he's definitely going.
Liz, let me know which of these float your boat at the Beeb and we can move to contract negotiations. David is very excited by the creative possibilities."

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
By Katherine Bergman, Zeitgeist
Long known for its creative culture, the historic Northwestern Building in the heart of Lowertown St. Paul is host to Second Floor Live, a cluster of performance spaces with a variety of musical offerings, including classical, jazz, contemporary, musical theatre and more. Second Floor Live is comprised of Studio Z, a gathering place for all types of new music, and the Baroque Room, which is acoustically designed for early music. With all of the musicians performing at Second Floor Live, it is only natural for them to come together in a collaborative project.
New music quartet Zeitgeist will join forces this month with the Baroque Room's Flying Forms for a collaborative celebration of old and new at Studio Z. "Early Inspirations: A Neighborly Collaboration" will feature newly composed music for Flying Forms' baroque instruments plus new works for Zeitgeist inspired by music of the Renaissance and Baroque.
The program includes a new work for solo harpsichord and electronics commissioned by Flying Forms' Tami Morse, plus music for baroque instruments by Minnesota composers Abbie Betinis, Kirsten Broberg and Asako Hirabayashi. Zeitgeist will perform Scott Miller's Consortia, based on works by English Renaissance composers William Byrd and John Jenkins, James Holdman's A Gondola Evades Us, based on the music of Renaissance composer Carlo Gesualdo, Kepler's Dream by J. David Moore, and Justin Rubin's The armed man should be feared... and other lessons from the Renaissance.Early Inspirations: A Neighborly Collaboration: May 17-18 at 7:30pm and May 19 at 2pm; Studio Z, 275 East Fourth St. Suite 200, St. Paul; $10; tickets available here.

Workforce Investment Act:
Issues Related to Allocation Formulas for Youth, Adults, and Dislocated Workers
GAO-03-636: Published: Apr 25, 2003. Publicly Released: Apr 25, 2003.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998 required states to streamline employment and training services and established three separate funding streams for serving youth, adults, and dislocated workers, for which about $3.3 billion was appropriated for fiscal year 2003. The formulas for distributing these funds to the states were left largely unchanged from those used to distribute funds under the Job Training Partnership Act of 1982, which served a different set of target populations. In anticipation of the upcoming debates on WIA's reauthorization, Congress asked us to review the formulas in the context of current program goals. Specifically, we assessed the formulas used to distribute funds to the states, identifying any mismatches that might exist between the formulas and WIA's program goals and populations served and identifying where the formulas are most vulnerable to wide fluctuations in funding levels from year to year. To identify issues associated with the current formulas, we: (1) summarized relevant provisions of the WIA statute and compared formula factors with target populations for each program, (2) analyzed the U.S. Department of Labor's formula calculations and states' historical allocations to identify factors that contribute to fluctuations in yearly funding levels, and (3) interviewed key experts and program stakeholders and reviewed relevant literature on federal workforce training policy and federal funding formulas. We conducted our work from December 2002 to February 2003 in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards.
The first issue we identified is that some of the factors used in the formulas to allocate funds are not clearly aligned with the programs' modified target populations. This may limit the ability to achieve a key goal of federal allocation formulas, which is to distribute program funds to areas based on their relative shares of people eligible to receive services. The second issue is that there are time lags between when the data are collected and when the allocations are available to states, so that the allocations may not reflect current labor market conditions. The oldest data are those used in the Youth and Adult program formulas to measure the relative numbers of low-income individuals in the states. The decennial Census is the source for these data, and allocations under this factor through 2002 are based on data from the 1990 Census. The data used to measure two of three factors for both the Youth and Adult programs are more recent, but are still as much as 12 months out of date. The time lags for the data used to calculate Dislocated Worker allocations range from 9 months to 18 months. The third issue we identified is excessive volatility in funding for the Dislocated Worker Program. That funding was significantly more volatile--as much as 3 times more so--than funding for either the Youth or Adult program. Some states have reported that this volatility makes program planning difficult. While some degree of change in funding is to be expected due to changing dislocations in the workforce, changes in funding do not necessarily correspond to these changes. Developing alternative funding formulas to address the issues we have identified is an important but challenging task. This task is complicated by the need to strike an appropriate balance among various objectives, such as using formula factors that are best aligned with program target populations and reducing time lags in data sources, while also using available data sources to measure these factors as accurately as possible. In addition, there have been proposals for reauthorizing WIA that would substantially modify the program target populations and funding streams, which in turn would have consequences for revising the funding formulas.

All right, as the Mods and admins, and many other members of the site, know, things are out of date, poorly explained, etc. So, June-Bug and I have put together a critical update for the site.
The following changes have been made and are ALL MANDATORY and NO exceptions will be made:
1.) 5 years have passed between the end of Ascension and the current place in time. ALL active profiles are to be aged to match. Approximately 15 years have passed since the start of the site. (If you joined at the start, but didn't age your characters, tack 15 years onto their current age.)
2.) Ascension DID happen. I'll be covering that in a seperate update post IN THE WRITING SECTION!
3.) Certain characters (admin-types mainly) will be granted an "ageless" status allowing the site's plot to continue. If you are a non-admin but your character is felt to be important, YOU WILL BE PM'D!
4.) (extension of #1) People change over time, projects and mutants are no different. In order to keep the site fluid, add onto your profiles in the PERSONALITY and DESCRIPTION sections. Either completely rewrite it or add another paragraph so it's up to date.
That's it for me, June-bug will be adding onto this.

On Puncture Marks and Proof: Pregaming the Robert Wone Trial
According to the Washington Post, the following is what prosecutors believe happened to Robert Wone, the former general counsel of Radio Free Asia who was murdered on Aug. 2, 2006:
Prosecutors believe that one or more people restrained Wone, sexually assaulted him and stabbed him to death after he went to a pullout couch in a second-floor guest room at 1509 Swann St. NW.
That said, reports the WaPo, nobody has been charged in Wone's murder, and it is possible that no one will ever be charged with his murder. Barring a last-minute confession or the discovery of new evidence, Wone's Aug. 2, 2006, slaying will probably go unsolved, according to the Post.
Criminal charges have, however, been filed in the case, and next week a trial is set to begin for the three men who lived in the house where Wone stayed the night he was murdered. Federal prosecutors plan to outline for a jury their theory of how the three men covered up the murder.
For those LBers who have followed this tragic tale episodically for lo these many years, the Post article is a must-read, with a lot of fascinating details. Click here for all previous LB coverage; here for detailed coverage from the blog "Who Murdered Robert Wone?"
So why are prosecutors going after the three defendants, Joseph Price, 39, Victor Zaborsky, 44, and Dylan Ward, 39, not for murder but for lesser crimes?
The Post also reports that the three suspects have hired six defense attorneys, including famed Court TV and CNN commentator Bernie Grimm; former D.C. attorney general Robert Spagnoletti; and two former top D.C. prosecutors, David Schertler and Thomas Connolly.

The animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is offering a $5,000 reward for information about three Chihuahua puppies found dead in a Wylie mobile home park last week.
The dogs' owner told police that the animals were shot and stabbed to death.
Related content:
Wylie Police Chief John Duscio said Wednesday that the animals were taken to a nearby veterinarian's office to determine the cause of death. He said investigators haven't ruled out an attack by another animal. No suspects were identified in the case, Duscio said.
The puppies were found early Aug. 29, police said. The owner reported that she let five puppies outside her home around 2 a.m. and didn't hear from them again. Later that morning, she found three of them dead with large puncture wounds, police said. The two others are still missing, according to police.
PETA is asking that anyone with information call Wylie police at 972-442-8170.

Ward 5 Meridian city councilman John Harris doesn't face opposition in the primary, but he is fielding questions about his recent termination as police chief at the Mississippi University of Women and the future of his campaign.
Harris was seeking re-election as councilman in and was employed as the police chief at MUW in Columbus.
School officials said he couldn't do both and they were under the impression he would not be running for office.
Councilman Harris disputes that. He said MUW vice president Perry Sansing, who has been handling the job process for Harris, was aware he was running for re-election, although Harris admitted he never told Sansing personally.
Harris says his run for re-election was never a problem until a few days after he was hired when someone contacted Mr. Sansing asking questions about his employment. Harris says he believes it was a bullying tactic to get him to remove his name from the ballot and Harris says he wasn't going to give in.
"He wanted me to say that I was going to get out of the race. But that was never an issue at the beginning; that was never in my contract. There was never anything said contractually that I had to get out of the race because they knew I was in the race when they hired me," said Harris.
Harris says he held the position as police chief from Monday, April 20, to Friday, May 1. Harris faces Republican Bobby Smith in the general election on June 2.

The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman
by Laurence Sterne
The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman Book 2, Chapter 19 Summary
- Listen up, Shmoopers, because Tristram has something to say. Actually, he should have said it a long time ago, but it's going to fit better here.
- Remember: Mr. Shandy is the guy with lots of odd opinions. He doesn't like to listen to others and prefers to come to his own conclusions about everything.
- Because of that, he tries out a weird argument to try to convince Mrs. Shandy to accept Dr. Slop instead of the midwife. The argument rests on two axioms: (1) A man's own wit (cleverness) is better than another man's; (2) Wit has to come from every man's own soul.
- Obviously, souls are all equal. Difference in wit, however, come from the way the body is organized in the place where the soul lives.
- Since people can walk around and be brain dead, it's obvious that the soul doesn't live there, as the philosopher Descartes says. And something so noble as the soul couldn't possibly live in the pool of liquid in the brain, as another authority says. So it must live somewhere around the medulla oblongata.
- Okay, so Tristram is buying what Mr. Shandy is selling so far. But here, Mr. Shandy goes off on his own Shandean hypothesis. Mr. Shandy's main concern is to produce the best heirs possible.
- To do this requires (1) being careful during the heir's conception, i.e., s-e-x; (2) giving the child the best name possible; and, (3) preserving the delicate head during birth.
- Let's break it down.
- Mr. Shandy is horrified to know that, because a child's head is so soft, it gets malformed and crushed in labor. He figures that this is responsible for people's inability to think straight—labor propels the cerebrum (brain) toward the cerebellum (seat of the understanding). Let us remind you that you should not use Tristram Shandy as a replacement for a good anatomy textbook.
- In fact, this explains why the eldest son is usually the dunce of the family: he opens the way, literally, for his younger brothers. It also, in a sublimely racist moment, explains why Asians are smarter: nature had laid a lighter tax upon the fairest parts of the creation (2.19.28).
- If, however, a doctor extracts the child feet first, the cerebellum is propelled toward the cerebrum, and all is well. Even better is the C-section, which is responsible for the births of so many geniuses.
- Mrs. Shandy, however, is not too thrilled with the suggestion of a C-section—which, if you ask us, considering the dearth of antibiotics and lack of basic understanding of sterilization, seems like a reasonable response.
- So Mr. Shandy resolves to try the second best way: getting the doctor to extract the child feet first. Dr. Slop doesn't care too much about the soul, but he firmly believes in extraction as the latest obstetrical triumph.
- Let the reader imagine how poor modest Uncle Toby feels about the ensuing discussion of labor and birth—and, while you're at it, imagine how Tristram lost his nose and gained his ill-fated name. It's a regular soap opera in the Shandy household.
