Whats funny is that when i started being a boxing fan, boxers wages for a fight were always mentioned. You could read it on the fight press, in a boxing article. Now, for some reason don't know if its the boxers, managers, promoters that tell boxing writers not to print the purse figures cause now a days you have to read and ready and dig through many articles to get a legit purse figure.
I used to read about the money they'd get and really that gave me some motivation to box. And makes people understand why someone would be a boxer.

Actual prospects/contenders depending on divisions get around 5-20,000 dollars
While no name champions or champs in unpopular divisions can earn 30,000(for real light weight classes) to 100,000(middleweight area)
It all depends if your a big name, or if your division on hot cuz lots of Bantemweight and featherweight champs have gotten purses like 30-50k for defenses where Bernard Hopkins who was known but not popular would get 100k-300k for his defenses
When your in the big leagues then it all depends on how good you can negoiate.
Mosley/Mayorga got a guarenteed 1.5mil/550k and with the 5k plus attendants and the ratings they can maybe earn some extra cash.
Most of my figures comes from years of lookin at interviews where various boxers from diff weight classes discussed their pay. Like I said its not concrete but I think those are good estimate figures

News 12 at 6:00, July 14, 2007
AUGUSTA, GA--A man was shot to death in downtown Augusta early this morning, and Richmond County investigators are looking for the person who pulled the trigger. They say 23-year-old Donald Hugh Gamble, Jr. shot 29-year-old Wuamaine Eugene Rickman in the 200 block of Walker Street.
Investigators say drugs may have been behind the murder. News 12 talked a man who goes to church nearby, who says violence like this is destroying the neighborhood.
Deadly gunshots fly, right near a bunch of houses and Benjamin Ivey's church.
"Everyone is lacking morals. And it's just, it's really getting out of hand. And you just hate to see it happen in your community." Ivey said.
Neighbors in the community say it happened right in front of some homes. Quamaine Rickman was delivering newspapers. He got out to talk to Donald Gamble and one other man, and things got heated. Sgt. Richard Roundtree says they got into an argument, and that's when shots started to fly.
"The witness stayed in the vehicle. Once the shots were fired, the victim attempted to flee in the vehicle, the vehicle was struck several times as it fled the scene." Sgt. Roundtree said.
Rickman was also hit in the back. The witness drove him to the Medical College of Georgia, where he later died. Rickman is now Augusta's 17th murder victim this year.
Benjamin Ivey says that number is far too high: "We have to try to rebuild our communities and put our kids back into the church. Until we do that, we're giving up on our own kids."
Investigators are looking for Gamble and the other man. They found drug-related items inside the house where Gamble was staying, and they think that could have something to do with the shooting.
Investigators say both gamble and the victim knew Stedmund Fryer. He was shot to death early last week at Club Super C; however, they don't think this shooting is related.

BREAKING: California's 10-Day Waiting Period Overturned…Mostly – The Truth About Guns
The ruling also extends to CCW license holders in the Golden State. Both of them. It's a start, anyway. Exactly how someone who's passed the specified background check is to demonstrate to the AFS system that he or she owns "an additional firearm" isn't really clear.
The ruling notes that as in Illinois' Moore v. Madigan ruling creating a right to carry in Illinois, the state asks the court for a 180-day delay in implementation. We're not attorneys, but the phrase "The Court finds Moore's approach to be appropriate" seems to indicate the state gets its stay to figure out how to implement the change. And challenge the ruling. In the mean time, congrats Calguns and SAF.
It's a start. But Kamala (I Was Willie Brown's Girlfriend) Brown will find a way to insert herself into the case, and appeal it as high as she can go.
In the meantime, California is still dragging its feet on even responding to another major civil rights victory, Peruta vs. San Diego, and you can bet your bottom dollar that the leftist sheriffs who control the issuance of CCWs in coastal communities and counties, along with Harris herself, will try to stretch this out as long as they possibly can.
In the meantime, the state legislator is trying to effectively ban ammunition.

Next among the types of eating disorders, let us consider about the conditions that can lead to an eating disorders on their own: Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating. Though these two conditions are treated as eating disorders, they stimulate some other eating disorders such as bulimia.
Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating – Overview
Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating disorders, types of eating disorders, share a set of characteristics and many times, the gap between the two disorders is hardly visible. Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating disorders, types of eating disorders, are characterized by repeated episodes of eating abnormally huge quantities of food, until they have a sensation of fullness within shorter period of time.
The differences among these two are the sufferer feelings after the eating course is ended.
If there are feelings of guilt, disgust regarding the inability to make excuses from the addiction for food, then the person is suffering from binge eating disorder. However, compulsive overeating sufferers will not feel guilty about their eating behaviors.
Moreover, the patient with binge eating disorder will always feel a "need" for food, while compulsive overeaters will have the nutritional process that is caused by a "desire".
Oftentimes, the compulsive overeaters will waste their time imagining about food and about eating it unaccompanied where as the binge eaters will also try to eat alone as they are ashamed of their addiction for food and their eating behaviors or patterns.
Causes of Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating
As with most types of eating disorders, both binge eating and compulsive overeating causes are also mainly due to emotional behaviors, even though there is a natural tendency to build up them. Sometimes, an emotional tremor such as a sudden breakup can cause the overeating disorder.
An individual suffering from these types of eating disorders will have a tendency of eating food in order to relieve from his problems, or willingly make an attempt to gain extra weight in order to become less attractive in the future, thus not revealing himself towards emotional misuse.
Studies show that a family history with types of eating disorders may also have a negative effect on how easy compulsive or binge eating settles in.
Effects of Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating
It is evident that a person suffering from compulsive and binge overeating will primarily hit himself to a constant gaining in weight. Further, there will be negative effects on the cardiovascular, digestive, and muscular systems and also leads to hormonal imbalances.
There are some problems, such as heart problems, ulcers and other similar problems, which can quickly develop from compulsive and binge eating, however the major problem of these types of eating disorders is that these can rapidly turn into bulimia.
Especially binge eaters with their feelings of guilty regarding their addiction for food and their appearance will lead to bulimia, where intentional purging through vomiting, enemas, laxatives, or diuretics takes place.
Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating Treatment
As both of these, the types of eating disorders are due to emotional and psychological behaviors; psychiatric treatment is necessary during the treatment process. There will be a strict, balanced diet that the sufferer will have to follow in order to have a successful treatment.
Anti-depressant medication can also be used when the sufferer doesn't accept and cooperative with the psychiatric treatment due to the feelings of depression, at some point.

SIKESTON -- Recently two area residents were nominated for induction into the Special Olympics Missouri Hall of Fame and their wait of knowing who won will come to an end on Saturday, when the inductees are announced.
Vicky Dannenmueller of Oran is one of three finalists in the volunteer category throughout the state, and Greg Swinney of Sikeston is one of four finalists in the athlete category.
Although Dannenmueller is honored to be a finalist, she doesn't want to talk about her nomination -- just Swinney's.
"I just want Greggie to win," Dannenmueller said. "I'd rather see him get it than me."
In 1980, Dannenmueller was a single mother and recently divorced woman. She wanted to find something that would take her mind off the sad things going on in her life, and she was able to do that through Special Olympics Missouri.
Since Dannenmueller began her involvement with Special Olympics Missouri 22 years ago, she has worn many hats in the organization including area director, coach, bus driver and chaperone. She's also gotten close with the area Special Olympians, and in particular with Swinney.
"My kids and my grandchildren were raised with Greg. He's the same age as one of my daughters. They've all been raised with the Special Olympians," Dannenmueller said.
Special Olympics is a year-round program of sports training and athletic competition for children and adults with mental retardation or other closely related developmental disabilities.
Dannenmueller's dedication has been instrumental in the development of a new volleyball program in her community and in convincing schools to sign up new teams. She is currently the coach of the Rebels Independent team.
Year-round sports for the Rebels Independent team include volleyball, bowling, basketball, field and track and softball. Dannenmueller's team meets every Monday to practice.
Swinney, 31, has been active in Special Olympics for 23 years, and his family credits the program for high self-esteem that gives him the confidence to be such an outspoken advocate. His list of accomplishments includes: 1998 Athlete of the Year, Hall of Fame Finalist for two years, Special Olympics Heroes Award, assistant coach and active athlete.
Basketball and bowling are Swinney's favorite sports to play, he said. He likes Special Olympics because he can help other people out and help Dannenmueller coach.
Sometimes Dannenmueller's team spends the night at her home a day before games that are far away, simply because it's easier if everyone's already in the same place before time to leave, she explained.
"They're just one big, happy family. They worry about each other and fight with each other like brothers and sisters." Dannenmueller said about her team.
Both Dannenmueller and Swinney were nominated to be inducted into the Hall of Fame before, but the trips before have been in Columbia, not Springfield, where the Hall of Fame exists. In fact this is Swinney's third nomination.
"Being a finalist is an exceptional honor. Even if he doesn't make it in, I'm proud of him." Dannenmueller said about Swinney. "But, three times the charm," she added.
To be considered for induction into the Hall of Fame, both athletes and volunteers must have participated in Special Olympics for at least 15 years; additionally, athletes must have earned a gold medal at a state level event and been nominated as Athlete of the Year.
"It would be great if we both won," Swinney said.
Swinney said he didn't expect to get nominated this year, but he is glad. "If I win, I have to give a speech and thank everyone," he said.
Special Olympics Missouri is always recruiting players and coaches, Dannenmueller said. Coaches are really needed.
Dannenmueller said, "We volunteers do whatever we have to do to keep the kids going."
The "Celebration of Heroes" banquet will be Saturday at the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame in Springfield.

My letter as a free and private American citizen with the rights as such has to do with America and freedom; and our upcoming Fourth of July Independence Day.
First; will Charlie Daniels be arrested for being too independent and too patriotic on the Fourth of July? Or will Charlie Daniels be told he cannot perform because mentioning God's name in public and saluting our flag is too offensive?
What is the Fourth of July and our Declaration of Independence? What is our Constitution and Bill of Rights?
And who is the God of freedom and justice? Where did the laws of our land originate such as thus shall not kill or murder? What are God's Ten Commandments? What God and law was America founded under? And what is Islam and Muslim law and their prophet Mohammed? What iws their law?
Who is the terrorists' god? Who was it that attacked us on 9/11?
Whose America is it anyway? If Mohammed is the terrorists' prophet and Allah their god, then why do we have to respect their rights? Respect the rights of those who come to America and practice terrorism?
And why is it now illegal to display our God's Ten Commandments and practice thou shall not kill? Who is our God and what is our law?
I see our news publications which I read and write to many as being the voice of we, the people, and our right to free speech.

Gay Men Can Not Donate Blood or Plasma
I went to donate Plasma today and after 4 hours of waiting in line I got in to do my intake. After checking my blood they told me I pass and would get paid 30 dollars for it. Then the Nurse asked about 50 questions and the very last question was if I was gay and had ever had sex with a man ever even once in the last 50 years. OMG I am only 35 and only had sex with one man in my life ever. What is up with this crap.

What I like about Ulrich is his high level very structured view on the HR function. I want to dedicate one more entry to his approach how to define HR deliverables.
Organizations should be more defined through their capabilities than through any sort of hierarchy. Managers are generally responsible for creating capabilities to respond to business challenges. They build a business strategy and HR implements that strategy putting in place appropriate HR practices which would build these capabilities. The capabilities become the culture that drives sustainable business success and are the measurable deliverables for HR. Many of them drive the intangible company value (taken from The Journey of HR, Excerpt from HR Competencies by Ulrich et al.).
As Ulrich points out in this video or more in depth together with Creelman in this article "only" 50% of a companies' stock price or market value is determined by earnings, the other 50% are the confidence in future earnings, you could also call "intangibles". He lists 4 areas these intangibles consist of: doing what has been promised, having a solid strategy for growth in place and communicating it well to "the street", having the core (technical) competencies on board and finally the right organizational capabilities to execute. So you could look at this as if HR is accountable for half of the intangibles, meaning overall 25% of the total company value. Clearly for building competencies and capabilities HR is the driver!
Technical competencies might be marketing's ability to manage it's distribution channels or manufacturing's ability to process excellence according to SixSigma. Capabilities are those things that make a company stand out in the minds of customers: a shared mind-set, like a company wide commitment to service, speed to market, leveraging learning of global teams, accountability for instant overnight product delivery or change resiliency while being in a very fast moving market.
The HR practices to build capabilities are put into 4 categories by Ulrich: People (everything dealing with the flow of people within an organization), Performance (ensuring accountability through managing performance from individuals and teams including compensation/benefits and rewards), Work (everything related to the work flow, how work in teams, administrative policies, design of physical facilities and space, how structure company to align with strategy; these practices directly influence talent) and 4. Information which I find particularly important as it looks like HR's role in communication gets more and more important nowadays. Internal communication can influence employee engagement, external communication builds the employer brand. Communication can even be seen like an element of success for all other HR practices being deployed.
Wayne Brockbank explains how the entire process of "Drafting a Powerful HR Strategy" is coming together in a video on the hrtransformationbook.com site under 4.2. He first defines what "strategic" means (sustainable, long term, adding substantial value...) and then leads us through 8 steps. The essence is that you need to define the key desired organizational and cultural capabilities needed to strengthen your key sources of competitive advantage which you have identified before. Important is to translate these into people behavior, what behavior from employees do we want to see in the future state, what will people be doing more of/less of. Based on this "vision" the appropriate HR practices will be identified and implemented and finally success will be measured.

Promoters Bob Arum and Oscar De La Hoya in 2007, at the weigh-in for Manny Pacquiao vs. Marco Antonio Barrera (Photo: Ethan Miller-Getty)
The Cold War between Top Rank and Golden Boy went nuclear with Monday's news that HBO would no longer be working with Oscar De La Hoya and Richard Schaefer. The decision effectively ends any hope of seeing a fight featuring a Top Rank fighter against a Golden Boy fighter for the foreseeable future.
The battle lines are now drawn: HBO and Top Rank vs. Showtime and Golden Boy.
Who will come out on top? It certainly won't be the fans. The situation was bad enough when we couldn't see fights between the promotional outfits with the two deepest stables. Now, other fights aren't realistic possibilities. Top fighters that aren't with Top Rank, like Andre Ward, Gennady Golovkin and Sergio Martinez, are aligned with HBO, meaning we won't see them against Golden Boy fighters. That means no Peter Quillin vs. Martinez, no Quillin against Golovkin. We can also forget about Andre Ward vs. Bernard Hopkins (though Hopkins said he wouldn't take that fight for "$15 million" anyway) and "Canelo" Alvarez squaring off with Martinez.
Who's to blame in this whole mess? Depends whom you believe. HBO was clearly upset when Golden Boy's two biggest stars, Floyd Mayweather and Alvarez, jumped ship to Showtime. Even though their last two Golden Boy shows (Hopkins-Tavoris Cloud and Adrien Broner-Gavin Rees) gained valuable ratings, they decided they wanted no part of Golden Boy going forward.
Will this rift between HBO and GBP mean more mismatches on HBO and Showtime? Bob Arum certainly has more leverage with HBO now and could wiggle his way to favorable matchups for his top fighters. On the flip side, it could be argued that Arum has no other avenue for his fights considering his soured relationship with Showtime, and may have to put his stars at risk to provide subscriber-friendly entertainment on HBO. He certainly scored big with last weekend's Fight of the Year candidate between Tim Bradley and Ruslan Provodnikov.
Golden Boy also has far more leverage with Showtime now than they did just last week. Showtime effectively doesn't have access to Top Rank's fights (though it's not clear whose fault that is) and will have to rely on Golden Boy for top programming. Golden Boy has a strong slate coming in April and May, with Alvarez-Trout, Danny Garcia-Zab Judah and Mayweather-Robert Guerrero.
The upside of this decision could mean more offerings like the May 25 show on HBO, which doesn't feature any fights from either of the two promotional giants. On paper, it's one of the best shows of the year, a split-site doubleheader with a rematch between Carl Froch and Mikkel Kessler as well as the Canadian superfight featuring Lucian Bute and Jean Pascal.
It could also mean the return of heavyweights on HBO, a division spurned by the network in recent years. The decision also opens up money and dates for the smaller weight classes, which would be a welcome addition to the network. It's rare that you see a fight on HBO below 118 pounds.
We won't know for a while how this decision truly affects the industry; dates for the second half of the year still aren't set. But if the renewed competition motivates both networks to put on the very best fights possible, the second half of 2013 could be one to remember. Time will tell.
Roy Jones Jr. replied: "It's the best thing that could have happened to him because this kid he's fighting is a very big welterweight. It allows him to be able to pick up more weight now after the weigh-in."
Umm, what? Since when is putting on weight a good thing? Not sure that makes you a stronger fighter. Roy is a future Hall of Famer, but that's just a baffling thing to say.
But that wasn't all.
He also stated that Bradley wasn't hurt on several occasions when he was stumbling around the ring. It wasn't Jones' best effort and I thought Andre Ward turned in a far stronger performance on commentary just one week earlier on the Hopkins-Cloud telecast.

Audio: *SePtember 1200* Preservation x Barry White Bornday Tribute LP
"Happy Bornday to my man Preservation and the late great Barry White"
"SePtember 1200 is a 12-track instrumental album inspired by Preservation's sharing of the same birth date – September 12th – as the one and only Barry White. The concept of the album is based on material sourced from the maestro's discography and produced solely on the 10-second sampling time of the classic drum machine, the SP-1200. The result is an outstanding 30-minute presentation of Preservation's approach to constructing albums with a deeply personal touch that takes the listener on a journey of styles and moods."

Yeast produces different flavours according to the density of sugars with which it is required to work. At this gravity it creates a beer with a complexity of gently pear-like fruitiness and dryish, nutty maltiness. The hop bitterness in the finish is relatively restrained.

Technical Abstract: Addressing the issues of climate change and sustainable biomass feedstocks have soil as a common theme. Managing crop residues is directly related to soil management. Understanding how soil and crop residue management interact provides insight on how to assure agricultural soil can serve as a carbon dioxide sink and not a source. The concept of minimum source carbon provided the basic science for preliminary estimates of how much crop residue (e.g., corn stover or wheat straw) needs to be returned to the land and conversely what may be available for harvest. Above-ground crop residue contributes to controlling erosion and maintaining soil organic carbon. More carbon from roots is humified into soil organic carbon than above-ground residue. Decades of research by Dr. Allmaras contributed to the on-going research to simultaneously sequester carbon and build sustainable bioenergy systems. Examples of how his research reaches into the future to solve present problems will be presented.

By Sgt. David Turner, 214th Mobile Public Affairs DetachmentJune 21, 2011
By. Sgt. David Turner, 214th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment
BLUE GRASS ARMY DEPOT, Ky. " Soldiers of the 4005th U.S. Army Hospital have a dual mission while conducting their two weeks of annual training here. It's a once-a "year chance to practice their medical skills and update their training, but above all, their task is to support the nearly 300 Soldiers of Task Force Red participating in Operation Golden Cargo.
The task force, headed by the 1050th Transportation Battalion, from Newberry, S.C., includes six different Army Reserve and National Guard units. From Blue Grass Army Depot they conduct daily convoys and logistics support for the nationwide, annual exercise which supports the Joint Munitions Command based out of Rock Island, Illinois.
One big challenge for the medics and doctors of the 4005th is the heat. Lt. Col. LeeAnn Adams, chief nurse for the 4005th, based in Houston, Texas, said the hot, humid weather requires them to monitor the heat index constantly. They also monitor Soldiers in field closely. To help prevent heat injuries, they work closely with participating units' leaders to make sure Soldiers working in the field drink water, take breaks, and eat regularly. They even visually identify those with previous heat injuries by giving them color-coded tags to wear in their boots.
"A big thing that we're focusing on is prevention," said Adams. In addition to working closely with Soldiers and their leaders, they also provide education and resources for each unit's designated combat lifesavers, Soldiers trained to assist with first aid in the absence of a medic.
"It's teamwork," said Adams. "It's working together, and it takes care of the Soldiers and prevents problems."
If problems do arise, medics stand ready to deal with a variety of potential casualties, from tick bites to heart attacks. So far, though, safety has been good, according to Staff Sgt. Rufus Anderson, a Houston resident and medic with the 4005th.
"We've been blessed. So far we haven't seen any heat injuries," said Anderson.
While Task Force Red Soldiers worked loading trucks in the afternoon heat, he and two other medics waited in a sheltered area, ready with ice, water, and an improvised aid station, including plenty of saline and fluid in case someone should require intravenous hydration. At times they looked a little bored without patients to treat. But according to Anderson, that's a good thing; it means that their efforts at prevention so far have worked.
"I think they just really don't want to get stuck with an I.V," he said with a laugh.

Requirements for the development of IL-4producing T cells during intestinal nematode infections: what it takes to make a Th2 cell in vivo. Immunological Reviews 201:57-74. Technical Abstract: Components of the type 2 immune response may mediate both host protection against helminthic parasites and harmful allergic responses. A central player in this response is the Th2 effector cell, which produces IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 and other Th2 cytokines during the primary and memory response. Specific aspects of the parasite that trigger Th2 cell differentiation and also the cell types and cell surface and secreted molecules that provide the immune milieu required for the development of Th2 effector cells and also Th2 memory cells are not yet well understood. They will probably vary with the particular helminth or other Ag inducing the Th2 response. We have used intestinal nematode parasites as adjuvants to promote naïve nonparasite Ag-specific T cells to differentiate into Th2 cells, in this way avoiding possible parasite Ag-specific T cell clones or cross-reactive memory T cells that may preferentially differentiate into Th2 effector cells during the course of infection. We have found that these parasites have a potent adjuvant effect and have used our model system to begin to investigate the early events that lead to the development of polarized Th2 cells in vivo.

Meth Menace: The Cost of Meth Abuse
There are the obvious costs like overtime for officers on a meth lab call and the clean up costs..UPDATED 6:48 PM EDT Apr 29, 2013
There are the obvious costs like overtime for officers responding to a meth lab call and the clean-up costs for hazmat crews, but there are some things you might not consider, like health care -- including emergency room visits and dental costs for meth inmates.Video Transcript
THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR THE METH MENACE. GOOD EVENING - I'M GEORGE MALLET I'M STEPHANIE GORIN - YOU MAY HAVE NEVER SEEN THE DRUG. YOU MAY NOT KNOW ANYONE USING IT...BUT YOU'RE PAYING FOR IT. THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASED METH USE ARE HITTING TAXPAYERS IN OUR COMMUNITIES. NEWSCHANNEL FIVE'S BRIDGET SHANAHAN JOINS US NOW WITH MORE ON HER LATEST METH MENACE INVESTIGATION, BRIDGET? NEW AT 6 STING THERE ARE THE OBVIOUS COSTS LIKE OVERTIME FOR OFFICERS RESPONDING TO A METH LAB CALL AND THE CLEAN UP COSTS FOR HAZMAT CREWS, BUT THERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT CONSIDER...LIKE HEALTH CARE INCLUDING EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND DENTAL COSTS FOR METH INMATES. AND WITH METH RELATED CRIMES INCREASING, LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS WONDER HOW THEY'RE GOING TO AFFORD IT ALL. JUST A WARNING SOME OF THE VIDEO YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE IS GRAPHIC. - 58.30 :05 DR. BOULE/DENTIST You're maybe talking 175, 200 dollars per tooth. And sometimes these things are surgical which involves a bit more. AND YOU'RE PAYING FOR IT, WE'RE ALL PAYING FOR IT. 54.40 :05BOULE Usually you're not dealing with two or three teeth. You're dealing with 12, 13, 14 teeth. USUALLY BY THE TIME DR. MICHAEL BOULE SEES A METH INMATE FROM THE CLINTON COUNTY JAIL, THEIR TEETH ARE INFECTED BEYOND REPAIR ...AND HAVE TO BE PULLED. 53.01 :05 BOULE This is typically what you'll see with meth mouth. The teeth are just broken. These are just root tips. THE HOMEMADE CHEMICAL CONCTION KNOWN AS CRANK, GLASS OR CRYSTAL...CAN ERODE TEETH. WHEN A USER SMOKES, THOSE CHEMICALS INHIBIT SILIVA PRODUCTION AND MAKES IT HARD FOR TEETH TO STAY CLEAN, OFTEN BY THE TIME SOMEONE GETS TO DR. BOULE THE TEETH ARE INFECTED BEYOND REPAIR AND HAVE TO BE PULLED. 54.16 :10BOULE typically with the sheriff's department you have to pinpoint which is the worst problem today and just focus on that because many times you'll see them again. DENTAL COSTS FOR THE CLINTON COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT HAVE NEARLY DOUBLED IN TWO YEARS. 4.45 :04FAVRO It's gotten outrageous over the last couple of years. AND THERE'S MORE ... CLINTON COUNTY SHERIFF DAVE FAVRO...TELLS NEWSCHANNEL FIVE SOME USERS ARE NOW INJECTING THE DRUG CONTRIBUTING TO MEDICAL BUDGETS THAT ARE UP ACROSS THE BOARD FROM GENERAL HEALTH TO PRESCRIPTIONS. THERE ARE WITHDRAWALS, E-R VISITS, GASTRO INTESTINAL ISSUES, VISION PROBLEMS, SEVERE CASES OF DEPRESSION AND THOSE MAJOR DENTAL PROBLEMS ...ALL OF WHICH... WE'RE PAYING FOR. 2.58 :07 FAVRO Now they're having medical care that typically the average person would not be getting because the meth is detiorating different components of their body. STANDUP - TAKE A LOOK AT THESE BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES OF METH USERS TO GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THE CHEMICALS CAN DO TO YOUR BODY OVER THE COURSE OF A JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS ...EXPERTS CALL IT A RAPID AGING PROCESS MAKING PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THE MID TWENTIES LOOK CLOSER TO THEIR LATE FORTIES. AND THIS IS JUST THE DAMAGE YOU CAN SEE. 2.46 :06:08 FAVRO And if you can see it on the outside, I think it's only common sense to deduce that something bad is happening to the inside of the body as well. AND THE COSTS DON'T END THERE...IT'S SO NEW TO THE AREA THAT BOTH VERMONT AND NEW YORK STATE POLICE ARE JUST BEGINNING TO TRACK THE EXPENSES. 31.51 LT. DAVISON/NYSP I don't have exact figures but each meth lab costs tax payers thousands of dollars. VERMONT STATE TROOPERS AGREE ESTIMATING THEIR COSTS ARE BETWEEN FIVE AND EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLARS PER LAB, ADDING THAT FOR MOST RESPONSES IT'S FAIR TO SAY A QUARTER IF NOT HALF THE TROOPERS RESPONDING ARE BEING PAID OVERTIME. ASIDE FROM THAT, THERE'S THE BOMB SQUAD AND THE HAZMAT TEAM. 1.48 :08 CHRIS HERRICK/VT HAZMAT the average amount of time we spend on scene is about 8 to 10 hours and so it costs anywhere between 2 and 3 thousand dollars per meth lab for the hazmat team to respond. THAT BRINGS US UP TO SEVEN TO ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS PER LAB...AND THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING, LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS IN BOTH VERMONT AND NEW YORK TELL NEWSCHANNEL FIVE THEY ONLY EXPECT THE PROBLEM TO GET WORSE AND THAT MEANS MORE EXPENSIVE TOO. 3.40 :06:13 HERRICK It's hard to know what the future is going to bring and say if we start to see a dramatic increase, we'll be sitting down ...BUTT TO 3.52 and figuring out are we going to be able to do this.and if not what do we do, how do we do this, how are we going to get more funds to be operational. 10.27 :05FAVRO Cost effectiveness is basically a runaway train. A SENTIMENT ECHOED BY EVERYONE WORKING TO DEAL WITH AND PAY FOR ALL LEVELS OF A RAPIDLY GROWING PROBLEM. 55.07 :05 boule I see all the time now that people are coming in is in this shape. ANOTHER COST FOR ALL OF THIS... TRAINING. FIRST RESPONDERS ARE BEING EDUCATED TO HELP BETTER COMBAT THE PROBLEM, INCLUDING VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS WHO ARE OFTEN BROUGHT IN WHEN ONE OF THESE HAZARDOUS AND POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE LABS ARE DISCOVERED. AND BRIDGET SINCE WE BEGAN OUR METH MENACE SERIES THERE'S ACTUALLY BEEN A LOT MORE TRAINING GOING ON ACROSS THE REGION. THAT'S RIGHT. THE VERMONT DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH RECENTLY EDUCATED SOME OF THEIR EMPLOYEES IN MIDDLEBURY AND ALSO SHOWED OUR FEBRUARY METH MENACE SERIES. AND A NEW YORK STATE TROOPER TELLS ME HE HAS 8 TO 10 TRAINING SESSIONS SCHEDULED FOR ALL SORTS OF EMERGENCY PERSONNELL INCLUDING FIREFIGHTERS AND 9-1-1 OPERATORS. A SUSPICIOUS LETTER SHOWED

The Mt. Ashland Hillclimb Run is still tentatively set to kick off at 7:30 a.m. Saturday, but race officials say the 13.3-mile trek up Mt. Ashland to the summit could be canceled as late as the morning of the race, depending on air quality levels.
The race's website, www.mtashlandrun.com, said that decision will be based on air quality readings taken by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. If the air quality index rates the air as "unhealthy" or worse, the race will not be run.

I'm trying to install Linux Ubuntu on my computer (which is an Acer Aspire 5040) but everytime I try to set the boot priority when I start my computer up, it turns itself off and I have to plug my external hard drive in for it to boot Windows XP
Last time I tried it, it came up with a message saying "there is not enough virtual memory." Or something like that and I'm not actually too sure what that means to be honest lol.
I'm trying to boot Linux from a live CD but.. Y'know, it's not working.
Any suggestions?
I have 512mb of RAM so I don't think it's that..
But thanks anyway

Gigan (ガイガン Gaigan?) is a kaiju who first appeared in Toho's 1972 film Godzilla vs. Gigan. Gigan is a cybernetic space monster sporting a buzzsaw weapon in its frontal abdominal region and large metallic hooks for hands.[1][2] Gigan is considered one of Godzilla's most brutal and violent opponents, being the first monster in the Toho sci-fi series to cause Godzilla to visibly bleed. WatchMojo.com listed Gigan as #4 on their "Top 10 Godzilla Villains" list.[3]
Gigan's first appearance was in the 1972 film Godzilla vs. Gigan, in which Gigan is summoned to Earth by the antagonist Nebula M Space Hunter aliens where he was paired with King Ghidorah to destroy Tokyo. They were challenged by Godzilla and Anguirus, and after a long fight the two space monsters were driven away. Then, in the 1973 film, Godzilla vs. Megalon, Gigan was again sent by the Nebulans to assist the people of Seatopia in their assault on humanity by aiding their god, Megalon, in a battle against Godzilla and Jet Jaguar. After receiving a broken arm at the hands of Jet Jaguar, Gigan fled to space, leaving Megalon to face Godzilla and Jet Jaguar alone. This is the second time Gigan has abandoned an ally. Gigan then made an appearance on Toho's television series Zone Fighter the same year. After his battle with Godzilla and Jet Jaguar, Gigan was captured in space by the Garoga army and sent back to Earth to prevent Godzilla from rescuing Zone Fighter, but he is soundly defeated by him. Left for dead, Godzilla leaves believing he is victorious, but Gigan revives shortly afterwards and battles Zone Fighter himself. In the final battle, Gigan is finally killed by Zone Fighter.
Showa Gigan was 65 meters (213 feet) tall and weighed 25,000 metric tons (25,557 short tons). Showa Gigan could fly at speeds of up to Mach 3 on Earth and up to Mach 400 in outer space.
After a 31-year absence he returned in Godzilla: Final Wars. In Godzilla: Final Wars, Gigan is one of the main antagonists for Godzilla to fight. In the film, Gigan once fought Mothra for the fate of the Earth and ultimately was defeated. Later, his mummified body is discovered and revealed to be a weapon used by the Xiliens. Gigan then awakens and creates havoc and destruction in Japan, but is sent to destroy the Gotengo in hopes of not awakening Godzilla, but fails. Gigan does manage to bring down the Gotengo, however, and then faces off against Godzilla and fails. During the battle between Godzilla and Monster X at the end of the film, Mothra tries to assist Godzilla, but is intercepted by a revived Gigan (whose arms have been retrofitted with enormous chainsaws in place of his iconic blades). The two engage in combat and, after briefly interrupting Godzilla and Monster X's battle, Gigan seemingly kills Mothra by firing his optic laser into her scales. Gigan turns around to aid Monster X against Godzilla, but he is decapitated by his own razor disks (fired at Mothra beforehand and reflected by the scales), and finally defeated by Mothra.
Final Wars Gigan was 120 meters (393 feet) tall and weighed 60,000 metric tons (66,138 short tons) in both his original and Modified forms. Both forms could fly at speeds of up to Mach 3.
Gigan, as a cyborg, possesses a circular saw in his abdomen and razor-sharp hooked blades in place of hands, which the monster uses to both batter and stab his opponents. According to Zone Fighter, the tips of the hooks can also release an explosive charge on contact with an enemy (Gigan's arms were replaced with chainsaws after being initially defeated by Godzilla in Final Wars). In addition, Godzilla Island and Final Wars also give Gigan an optically-mounted laser and Final Wars version of his eye laser was named Giganume Cluster in Godzilla: The Game. He was as equipped with as jetpacks and grappling hooks. The Pipeworks trilogy gave Gigan the ability to teleport, as well. Final Wars also introduced Gigan's ability to shoot boomerangs shurikens which was named Blooded Slicer in Godzilla: The Game. However his shuriken boomerang effect turned out to be a double-edge sword as they unintentionally ended up killing him in the climax of the film.

Great unusual taste
Posted by 5241095773643440908 on Dec 02, 2013
This green tea is mixed with roasted rice and some rice grains look like tiny popcorn. The tea has a rich and unusual flavour, the combination of fried rice, tea and smoke. It is fancy but green tea lovers and those who like the flavour of popcorn (or fried rice) will like it. The only thing I hated is that it clogged my tea filter instantly but it might be the problem with my filter. Love it, will buy again.

Instructions For Changing an OpenSolaris Unbundled IPS Package
By user12607856 on Nov 09, 2009
[Last updated 12th July 2010 to work with build #134. Thanks to Chris Quenelle for working out what changes were needed to the scripts used for publishing].
Yet another project team need to upgrade their unbundled OpenSolaris software, so it's time to write out the instructions and just point them at them. They will need to adjust to taste. These instructions are also some what Oracle-internal specific.
When I'm updating one of the unbundled OpenSolaris packages, then I'll do something like the following. There needs to be a bug number in the OpenSolaris Bugzilla for this work, so let's pick 13523 (the recent one used for NetBeans 6.8):
- Check out the latest pkg source workspace:
$ mkdir -p ~/pkg/bugs/13523 $ cd ~/pkg/bugs/13523 $ hg clone ssh://email@example.com/hg/pkg/gate
- Make any changes to the unbundled IPS package manifest file.
For example, if you wanted to change the version number for the NetBeans packages, then you would edit the
.../gate/src/util/distro-import/unbundleds/NetBeansfile and adjust the version lines accordingly.
- Build and install your workspace:
$ cd gate/src $ make -e; make -e install; make -e packages
You might need to setup your OpenSolaris machine so that the build process will work. I have some notes from about a year ago, when I went through this.
Note that the pkg build process doesn't currently work properly with GNU Makefile, so make sure your PATH is something like:
export PATH=/opt/sunstudio12.1/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/gnu/bin
so that it picks up the correct
There are a couple of packages you might need to install to get pkg (and associated packaging commands) to run properly. These are:
$ pfexec pkg install SUNWpython26-pyopenssl $ pfexec pkg install SUNWpython26-simplejson
Copy three shell scripts (originally written by David Comay):
~/pkg/bugs/13523/gateand adjust them accordingly. If you look at them, you'll hopefully see what needs to be tweaked for your unbundled package. Let me know if you need more details.
- Run a local pkg.depotd server
In one terminal window, I'll start up the pkg.depotd process by running:
$ cd ~/pkg/bugs/13523/gate $ start-depotd
and then monitor it with:
$ tail -f errs.depotd
- Before I can publish my unbundled package, I need to publish
any WOS ON package to my local repository. This needs to be done
otherwise certain things in the publish process aren't setup correctly:
In another terminal window, I'll start up the importer.py package publishing process with:
$ cd ~/pkg/bugs/13523/gate $ start-import
and then monitor it with:
$ tail -f errs.import
Note that you should set:
JUST_THESE_PKGSto just the single package you'd like published (in this case driver/firewire). If you are building against an earlier build before the Great Renaming (which occurred in build #133), then you will need to pick one of the old style package names. I suggest SUNWiscsi.
- Now it's time to publish the unbundled package. I do this in yet
another terminal window with:
$ cd ~/pkg/bugs/13523/gate $ start-cluster
and then monitor it with:
$ tail -f errs.cluster
PKGSin the
start-clusterscript to the location of the new unbundled SVR4 packages you want to publish.
start-clusterscript is now setup to publish against build 134. If you want to publish your unbundled packages against another build (say 126), then adjust the
BUILDNO=line accordingly.
If it's successfully published the packages to my local repository, I can then look at them via my browser at http://stard.sfbay.sun.com:13523
- I will then need to install and test my new packages:
$ pfexec pkg set-authority -P -O http://stard.sfbay.sun.com:13523 bug13523 $ pfexec pkg install developer/netbeans $ pfexec pkg set-authority -P opensolaris.org $ pfexec pkg unset-authority bug13523
- Then I'll test these new package(s), and repeat steps 2-8 as needed.
- When things are looking good, you will need to get a code review. For simple
changes like this, the differences can be sent as part of the message to the
pkg-discuss mailing list. Use:
$ hg diffto get a set of diffs for the changes you've made. An example of such a code review request can be found here.
- When the code review request has been approved, then the changes need to be
checked into the pkg source workspace. Initially unbundled project team members
won't have checkin permission to this workspace, so they will need to send the
diffs to somebody who does.
First commit the changes:
$ cd ~/pkg/bugs/13523/gate $ hg commit
This puts you in the text editor. Add a one line comment to describe the change. Something like:
13523 Integrate NetBeans 6.8 as an unbundled package
Note the changeset number with:
$ hg tip changeset: 1954:bef1d4d2996f user: Rich Burridge
date: Wed Jun 23 07:30:54 2010 -0700 summary: 13523 Integrate NetBeans 6.8 as an unbundled package
Export the changeset:
$ hg export 1954:bef1d4d2996f >~/PKG-EXPORT/pkg-13523.patch
and then send the pkg-13523.patch file to the pkg developer who can check it in for you.

Epidural steroid injections
Facility Rental Information
Epidural steroid injections
Epidural steroid injections (ESIs) have been found to be very effective in relieving pain. A steroid is a potent, anti-inflammatory agent that, when injected into the epidural space surrounding the spinal cord and spinal nerves, may reduce the swelling of these nerves and the pain which often accompanies a back or neck disorder. An injection also can help your physician diagnose the source of your pain by numbing certain areas of your back. Where you are injected depends on the goal of the injection.
After Your Injection:
We recommend minimal activity for the first 24 hours after receiving your epidural steroid injection. You may drive yourself home, although some patients are more comfortable allowing someone else to do so. You may experience some soreness at the injection site for the first 24 hours after receiving your epidural steroid injection. If so, applying ice will help reduce your discomfort.
The day after you receive your injection, you may remove the small adhesive bandage and wash the injection site with soap and water. You may increase your activity the next day to half of what your normal level of activity would be without doing anything to strain or stress your back or neck. (No heavy lifting, digging, golfing etc).
If you are currently undergoing physical therapy, you can resume your stretching and strengthening exercises 5 days after receiving your injection, unless your physician or physical therapist advises you otherwise.
Will I receive more than one epidural steroid injection?
One epidural steroid injection provides long-lasting pain relief for many patients, especially those who are undergoing physical therapy and are diligent about observing good posture. It can take six to 10 days before you begin to respond to the steroid. If you experience complete pain relief after one injection, you will not undergo additional injections. Pain relief can last for many months or years.
If you do not respond to the first injection, a second injection maybe administered about two weeks after your first injection. If there is no improvement after two injections, your physician may suggest alternative treatments.
Are there any complications associated with an epidural steroid injection?
The epidural steroid injection has a long history of safe use. Some of these potential (uncommon) side effects include fluid retention, "puffiness". An additional risk is the possibility for the epidural needle to nick the dura (the covering of the spinal cord). Should this occur, there could be leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, which could cause a severe "spinal headache." If this should happen, bed rest and an increase in fluid and caffeine intake frequently will alleviate the headache completely. Should this not resolve the problem, it could be necessary to do what is called a "blood patch," in which (under sterile conditions) blood is removed from a vein in the arm and placed into the same epidural space. This completely resolves symptoms of the headache. Since this is the most common adverse event that may occur from epidural injections, the remaining potential complications should not scare you, but make you more informed. There is only a 1 percent chance that you will suffer from a brief headache after receiving an epidural steroid injection.
Also, whenever skin is punctured, there is a slight chance it may become infected, resulting in redness, swelling, tenderness, or warmth at the injection site. Local tenderness at the injection site is normal. Treat this with a warm compress and the irritation should go away in a couple days.
Other potential risks include: worsening of symptoms, bleeding, infection, steroid side effects (moodiness either high or low), heartburn, night sweats or feeling of being hotter at night, cheek redness, for women, a "menopausal feeling" which is typically short-lived, local nerve damage or impairment.
If you experience a "spinal headache", redness, swelling, or develop a fever, please notify your physician.

Abacwezi and Embandwa. Edition No. 1
- January 2010
- 108 Pages
- VDM Publishing House
The title Abacwezi and Embandwa dramatizes the Cwezi dynasty from which a traditional religion sprang. From Bunyoro Kitara, they migrated to the far west of Uganda but, some remained in Bunyoro by absorption.Their wonders inspired the people they left behind to formulate a cult of them. These people emulated them to the level of gods and organized a devotion in their worship they started expecting favours there from. The plants which the Cwezi came with, were used to treat people and are demystified today by the scientists to have curative values. This work is written for all classes: spiritualists, teachers of traditional religions, artists, musicians poets and researchers in medicine. And so, the world over new religions are born. Some die away but others still prevail. Man seems to delight in his own creative work. The religion he has formed which seems to suit best his culture and soul, this one he has kept; and that of the stranger, whether enforced on him or not,that also he has accepted but never to drop the old.He is convinced that this is his own cherished culture to lead him to his creator; for, heaven's light forever shines; earth's shadows fly!

Carol Hopper's Profile
My work focuses on the everyday, ordinary - people and things overlooked and forgotten.
Based in my hometown of Las Vegas, I have been a self-taught, working artist for over 25 years. In 2009, the economic collapse cost me my business, my jazz musician husband's livelihood, and ultimately our home.
Homeless for two years we bounced around from friends, relatives, cheap motels, shelters and public housing. Whatever our living conditions I never stopped creating my art. The hardships of the past few years have given me an intense empathy for the least of us, the down and out, the castaways.
The "Just a Number" and "Beings of a Golden Kind" series of drawings, reflects my firsthand experience at being homeless, humbled, lost and found…
