LAKE ELSINORE: Massive Alberhill project on hold
A plan that would result in the development of a subdivision in northern Lake Elsinore has run into a couple of stumbling blocks.
Castle & Cooke Inc. wants to divide 400 acres east of Lake Street and south of Interstate 15 for the construction of more than 1,000 homes, a commercial village, police and fire stations, and parks.
Regional officials have questioned the validity of an agreement between the developer, Castle & Cooke Inc., and the city on the project.
Representatives of the Western Riverside Council of Governments are concerned the agreement would exempt Castle & Cooke from paying fees required of developers to support road improvements that would offset traffic generated by their projects.
Also, Lake Elsinore officials questioned whether the developer is supplying enough park space for active recreational activities.
The concerns led the City Council recently to delay a vote on the proposed subdivision map and an amended developer's agreement, despite a warning from Castle & Cooke that the deal bringing about $13 million of infrastructure improvements to the city might collapse.
Lake Elsinore Mayor Brian Tisdale said in an interview that he did not believe Castle & Cooke would pull out, considering how long it has been working on the project. The original development agreement dates back to 1990 and Castle & Cooke took it over in 2006 as part of its massive Alberhill Hill Ranch development.
"There's a lot invested on both sides and I don't see either side pulling the plug," Tisdale said of the city's and developer's stakes in the development.
The project has been delayed by a variety of issues, including the creation of the wide-ranging habitat conservation plan in Western Riverside County.
Castle & Cooke's original development plan for the northern part of Lake Street encompassed 1,000 acres, but the county bought 600 acres to preserve as habitat under the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan. That required the developer to refocus the plan on the remaining 400 acres.
In more recent years, the economic downtown has put the brakes on the housing market. Castle & Cooke has yet to complete its first Alberhill Ranch subdivision farther south on Lake Street, let alone launch a new one.
Developers, however, are seeing signs of life in the market and are starting to push projects through the bureaucratic process so they can be built when the economy picks up.
During the Nov. 13 council meeting, Castle & Cooke advisers pushed the council to proceed with the approvals of the map and amended agreement. They promised to pay for defense costs if there should be a legal challenge from the Western Riverside government coalition.
Executives there told city officials if the agreement went through as proposed and Castle & Cooke doesn't pay the regional infrastructure fees, the regional council could strip Lake Elsinore of its share of road and highway tax revenue.
Councilman Peter Weber urged the council to approve the revised agreement and developer's offer to defend the city, saying he believes delays could endanger the project.
"To be in a holding pattern with this project just doesn't make sense," Weber said.
A majority of the council members, however, agreed not to force the issue and risk getting into a contentious situation between the regional government agency and the developer.
"This is an issue they need to resolve and not stick the city in the middle of it," Tisdale said.
That sentiment received support at the meeting from Councilman Daryl Hickman.
"The question is why should we get in the middle of this dog fight," he said.
To meet the city's requirements for parks, Castle & Cooke proposed a 39-acre park that would line the east side of Lake and wrap around to the east on Nichols Road at its intersection with Lake.
Lake Elsinore administrators, however, say that park does not meet the city's general plan criteria because it does not accommodate active recreation other than trails.
The council postponed approval of the map to allow the city's staff more time to examine the park issue in conjunction with the developer.
"The Marines may like mud," said Tisdale, himself a Marine veteran, "but we still would like usable park lands."

Good evening Lainy and Iowagirl,
thank you for your welcome....it means a lot as both of you know.....
It is a slow period with holidays etc. ---no worries as they say in Utah.....there is a wealth of great support on this website thanks to generous people like yourselves that take the time to respond to total strangers.
Thank you both,
Although I have logged on to this site on numerous occasions, I have decided it is time to get more involved and perhaps share experiences.
My husband was diagnosed with an unresectable Klatskin tumor in March 2013. Chemo (Gemzar), followed by Tarceva, FU-5 have kept the tumor from growing, until recently when his CA 19-9 climbed from a little over 100 in June to almost 2000 recently.
He is currently undergoing IMRT radiation with Xeloda, and has 20 treatments to go.
So far, no side effects.
If anyone has any insight into this therapy, comments would be most welcome. It has been a long 19 months but we aren't giving up.
Thank you for any insight you can provide.
My husband was on Gemox for 4 months. It brought the cancer markers down dramatically and the tumor (Klaskin's) was essentially unchanged. He is now on Folfiri (FU-4, Leuvocorin and Tarceva). Got very severe skin lesion/acne type on his face so they have stopped the tarceva. His skin cleared up quickly with Clindamycin oitment.
We expect to resume Tarceva soon.
Would appreciate any positive stories on Tarceva effectiveness and I will share our experience as well. He is being treated at MD Anderson and they are THE BEST. Determined to beat this terrible cancer.

The primary focus in my laboratory is to understand the regulatory mechanism(s) of ion channels in excitable cells. Specifically, we are interested in the mechanism by which beta-adrenergic and muscarinic receptor agonists modulate ionic currents. Previous studies have suggested that in addition to the phosphorylation-dependent effects on ion channels, Gsalpha has an additional "direct" effect on the increase of cardiac sodium current that is independent but concurrent with phosphorylation effects. Our results strongly suggest that the number of functional Na+ channels increases in the membrane and that these channels are in caveolae (specifically those with the caveolin-3 isoform) (Yarbrough et al., 2002). Caveolae are dynamic omega-shaped invaginations whose membrane fusion and fission mechanisms are virtually unknown. These channel proteins do not migrate out of the caveolar membrane domain. Na+ channels within caveolae become functional when the caveolae "neck" opens to establish electrical continuity between the extracellular space and the intra-caveolae compartment. Our studies focus on determining the co-localization of Na+ (Nav1.5), Ca2+ (L-type or Cav1.2), and K+ (Kv1.5) channels in caveolae and the role of Gsalpha in the regulation of caveolae neck opening and closing. Our recent findings show that Gsalpha contains a critical histidine residue that plays an obligatory role in the caveolae neck opening.
Our animal models include enzymatically dissociated single myocytes from rabbit, rat and human hearts. We use several types of approaches to test our hypothesis. Some of these techniques include Western blot analysis, immunoprecipitation, confocal immunofluorescence, immuno-electron microscopy, and patch-clamping. The patch pipette voltage-clamp technique is used to determine changes in the biophysical properties of sodium, calcium and potassium currents as well as ultra high-resolution capacitance measurements.
These studies will provide new information into the mechanism of caveolae in heart and direct pathways for pharmacological interventions and therapeutic modalities of lethal arrhythmias.

Frustrated trying to manage duplicate tracks and files in iTunes on your Mac?
Of course you are!
iTunes' "Show Duplicates" feature is helpful but you still have to examine every track to determine whether you want to keep or delete the tracks it finds. Smart Playlists are of dubious help and trying to locate all duplicates with them can be tedious as they can quickly crowd your Source list and slow iTunes down.
Now there's Dupin, your iTunes duplicates manager. (more...)
Get Dupin's core features in a lite-sized package
Dupin Lite has the same powerful Get Dupes-Filter-and-Purge features as the original Dupin but with fewer power-user features. If you aren't interested in managing duplicate tracks as much as just identifying and eliminating them then Dupin Lite may be right for you.
You'll quickly and easily be able to identify duplicate tracks according to crtieria you select. Then use Dupin Lite's flexible filtering controls to automatically decide which tracks to keep and which to remove and Trash. (more...)
Start curating your playlists again
Making a playlist in iTunes is pretty easy. But some people are really particular and miss the convenience of being able to assemble a playlist in one iTunes window by dragging tracks from another.
Playlist Assist is a floating window to which tracks from iTunes can be dragged and then sorted, arranged, auditioned, edited, exported as text, and saved back to iTunes as a new playlist. While it doesn't exactly replace the now-defunct iTunes playlist window, its features will allow the particular user to keep playlist construction in focus while still being able to conveniently navigate around iTunes for tracks and playlists. (more...)
Smart Playlist Management
Smarts will save and store the criteria of an iTunes Smart Playlist the smarts of a Smart Playlist as a template so you can reload it into iTunes later, back it up, or share with other iTunes users.
Perhaps the best use of Smarts is to maintain several "starter" Smart Playlist templates of your frequently used criteria. Instead of painstakingly re-entering the same basic and perhaps elaborate criteria over and over again, just load a pre-made "starter" template as a new Smart Playlist in iTunes. (more...)
Nine Tools for iTunes
TrackSift brings together nine fun and useful Tools for iTunes in one attractive, simple to install and easy to use app:
- Create "One-Hit Wonder", "Two-Fer", and "Three-Fer" playlists
- Find songs without album art, without lyrics, and not in playlists
- Delete "dead" tracks, delete empty playlists, and update expired podcasts

But finding a comfortable eye patch that she loves has also made a huge difference. Which is why we love Happy Patch Kids patches - she can pick a design she loves and wears it proudly. Between her favorite eye patches and a big dose of Pirate lore, we're doing A-OK! Now I'd love to add these pirate themed things to our growing collection to keep my little pirate inspired:
- Pirate Sue from Stuf
- Happy Patch Kids Eye Patches
- Charlotte Jane Battles Bedtime
- Pirate Blackboard Stickers
- Pirate and Treasure Puzzle

THS Soccer shuts out KC-Sumner in regional play
Chieftain Field was very muddy on Tuesday. The pre-game cloud burst left no doubts as to where the field's low spots are look for the small ponds.
But the mud didn't seem to bother the Tonganoxie High School soccer team, which has shown little in the way of low spots recently.
Beating league powerhouse Mill Valley in its last regular season game, the Chieftains earned a good seeding in their region.
Against Sumner Academy, the team kept its season alive for at least one more game when it beat the team 7-0 in the first round the Class 4A regional playoffs.
With the win, the team advances to the next round Thursday in Maranatha.
The Chieftains dominated the game, keeping the ball almost completely out of the hands of Sumner. The result was almost no shot attempts for Sumner and several every minute for the Chieftains.
Senior Ryan Lowe took care of three of the scores with his hat trick.
Senior Scott Breuer, senior Mark Gepner, junior Thomas Dodge and junior Dustin Shultz were responsible for the other four goals.
The Chieftains were too much for Sumner Academy, which forfeited the game with 9:53 left.
For complete coverage of Chieftain post-season soccer, see next Wednesday's Mirror.

(Sacramento, CA, USA) – The Linux Professional Institute (LPI), the world's premier Linux certification organization, announced with its affiliate organization LPI-Spain that a program in public schools in Spain to promote Linux education and certification has achieved successful results in its first six months of operation. This public education initiative with Proyecto Universidad Empresa (PUE) has recruited close to 20 training partners. PUE is Spain's leading agency in the development of IT training and certification and provides academic programs for such major IT organizations as Microsoft, Cisco and Sun. For more information on PUE's initiative with LPI please see: http://www.pue.es/lpi "This impressive result early in this program initiative with PUE demonstrates the growing recognition of the need for professional Linux skills and knowledge within the IT sector in Spain. LPI continues to support the workforce development of Linux professionals in regions throughout the world. In this instance, we are pleased to work with academic organizations and government agencies which undertake the important work of developing IT curriculum to meet this need," said Jim Lacey, president and CEO of LPI. Under this initiative PUE and LPI-Spain have recruited a number of LPI Approved Academic Partners (LPI-AAP) to deliver Linux training and certification. The program has been embraced by educators in both the Spanish and Catalan language. "In our education department we promote the use of Free Software–particularly the use of Linux. We believe it is important that our students at CFGS Management Computer Systems and Networks learn to manage Linux and Free and Open Source Software. LPI certification provides our students with a path to develop their knowledge and an understanding of this type of software environment. As well LPI certification is a recognized educational standard that is being increasingly requested by employers," said Josefa Gonzalez Perales, INS La Ferreria, Montcada i Reixac, Barcelona, Spain. "For the information technology students of the Institut de l'Ebre, the ability to demonstrate their knowledge of the Linux operating system through a recognized training and certification program, as with LPI, is an opportunity for a well-paid job–in particular where, at least in Spain, and especially in Catalonia, there is an increasing demand and few qualified professionals for such positions," said Sergi Tur Badenas of the Institut de l'Ebre, Tarragona, Spain. Sergi Tur Badenas added: "The PUE/LPI-Spain initiative owes its remarkable success, specifically in Catalan, to the creation of an online documentation base about the LPIC-1 certification. This tool has been useful both for teachers and students in order to clearly verify educational goals and skills development students have gained during their training towards the LPIC program." The Linux Professional Institute is globally supported by the IT industry, enterprise customers, community professionals, government entities and the educational community. LPI's certification program is supported by an affiliate network spanning five continents and is distributed worldwide in multiple languages at more than 7,000 testing locations. Since 1999, LPI has delivered over 260,000 exams and 87,000 LPIC certifications around the world.
About the Linux Professional Institute
The Linux Professional Institute promotes and certifies essential skills on Linux and Open Source technologies through the global delivery of comprehensive, top-quality, vendor-independent exams. Established as an international non-profit organization in September 1999 by the Linux community, the Linux Professional Institute continues to demonstrate recognized global leadership in the certification of Linux professionals. LPI advances the Linux and Open Source movement through strategic partners, sponsorships, innovative programs and community development activities. LPI's major financial sponsors are Platinum Sponsors IBM, Linux Journal, Linux Magazine, Novell, SGI, and TurboLinux as well as Gold Sponsors, HP and IDG.

Why is this Poker Room Recommended by OPRM.com Editors?
Soft competition in real money games, huge sign up bonus, excellent poker software and several deposit/withdrawl options. Several exciting promotions for active players and there is an integrated casino as well. Overall pretty good online poker experience.
April 15th, 2011 was a dark day for online poker players in America, for more reasons than one. Yes, American players lost access to their player accounts and their favorite poker rooms, but the greater impact has been on Internet poker resources. Poker sites and forums are suffering. Traffic is low, content is old, the sites themselves stale, and some even hosting dead links.
In light of the changes brought about by Black Friday, OnlinePokerRealMoney.com plans to provide an oasis of unique and up-to-the-minute information for all things online poker related.
If you're looking for advice about how to win more money playing Texas hold'em on the Internet, then OPRM.com is the brand to look to.
If you're looking for the latest rumors about the future of Internet card playing, then OPRM.com is the brand to look to.
If you're looking for information about services catering to Internet poker players, then OPRM.com is the brand to look to.
Internet poker players are looking for specific things from a poker information site. OPRM promises to offer some of these specifics.
Depending on where you live, you might have trouble finding an online cardroom which will let you play for real money. For example, many web cardrooms no longer accept real money poker players from the United States. OnlinePokerRealMoney.com specializes in providing information about where to play online poker real money games no matter where you live.
After Black Friday, sensible poker players care about which methods of depositing and withdrawing funds are safe and secure. If you're an online poker player with money tied up because of a frozen bank account, then you understand why such things matter more than anyone. Our readers are responsible adults. They value their freedom. They want to make sensible decisions about their funding choices, and the information on this site is meant to help them make those decisions.
The legal situation related to Internet poker isn't just changing in the United States, but things are changing rapidly in the USA. Some states are legalizing Internet poker. The cases against Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars are working their ways through the court system. Lobbying efforts continue. OPRM promises to keep you up to date on those legal challenges and changes. If you need to know more on legal poker rooms for US players, then visit www.legaluspokersites.com
But OnlinePokerRealMoney.com doesn't limit itself to just reporting on United States poker law. You'll also find news and information about changes in the laws in other countries as they relate to online poker. The world has over 200 different countries, each of which offers unique legal situations related to cash-based card games and gambling. Changes in those legal situations are newsworthy, and you can count on our brand to bring you the latest and most accurate information.
OnlinePokerRealMoney.com is exactly what the name says. We want casual visitors to know who we are and what we do right from the start. Rather than make money sending you to poker sites that pay us to advertise for them, we want to build up our own loyal team of poker fans by connecting them to sites we trust, sites that we play at, and sites that are unlikely to owe them money due to being shut down.
Let our poker wisdom be your poker wisdom. How hard is it to find unbiased details on poker online? It's much too difficult, and this leads to much chin-scratching and gnashing of teeth among poker players. Months of frustration have left poker players the world around with a rash and a bad taste in their mouths toward real money online poker play.
Look to OPRM.com for reviews of the best online poker sites where you can play poker online with real money. Soon, we'll have lists and information on legitimate poker sites, what countries do and don't restrict play at those sites, the best promotional and bonus deals, and everything else a poker player who wants to spend real cash could want to know.
For an idea of what the future of online poker worldwide could look like, look at what is happening in Nevada. It looks like online poker is going to be fully regulated within that state's borders. According to gaming insiders in Nevada, online casino gambling will be next. Wagers on sports and horse racing can't be far behind either.
The goal of these regulations is to ban offshore poker sites and move online gaming in-country or in-state so that local governments can benefit from tax revenue.
Other countries and territories are along for the ride. Italy is moving towards regulated online gaming and poker nationwide, with Germany and Spain close behind.
Can the United States pull off something similar? We at OnlinePokerRealMoney think so.
There is talk of intra-state regulation all over the place, including in Washington, DC where real progress has been made toward full regulation of online gaming. The worldwide economic downturn is actually good news for online poker fans who want to play the game they love with their hard-earned cash - governments need income, and poker players need a place to practice the sport they've grown good at.
The way it is now, all gambling revenue from American players is leaving the country untouched. A handful of American-friendly poker sites still operate offshore to counter the UIGEA law passed 5 years ago. That UIGEA legislation was tucked inside a can't-fail anti-terrorism law that had far more to do with safe industry in the post-9/11 world than online gaming.
What will it take to counter-act such a nasty law?
Time will tell. Hopefully, it will look something like what's going on at the state level across the USA.
What will happen to American poker players without more regulation? They will eventually be squeezed out of the market entirely. Some players, those who make a career of playing poker online with real money, will be forced to leave the country altogether, a prospect the American government can't possibly be excited about.
OnlinePokerRealMoney.com will be a clearinghouse for all things online poker: news, reviews, details, inside information, and advice on playing the game we love to play.
OnlinePokerRealMoney.com will host material from guest writers, people who have paid their dues in the online poker world, maintained player accounts through the darkness of Black Friday, and those poker pros who want to help other gamblers find legitimate action.
OnlinePokerRealMoney.com will not grow stale. Too many sites are live right now studded with outdated information, dead links, and promotional offers that have long since fallen by the wayside.
OnlinePokerRealMoney.com will give us the opportunity to share what we know with our online poker family.

Vikram's 17 avatar in Rajapattai
Vikram, fondly called as Chiyaan by his fans, confirms that he will be seen in 17 avatars. The actor also clarifies that he is not doing those many number of roles but he has only sported different kind of get ups for Rajapattai, as the Sethu star, who is playing the role of gym instructor, plays the character of an aspiring actor.
The actor claims that he has worked round the clock for Rajapattai. Especially, the last schedule, which lasted for 30 days, was really tough and fitting into different avatars were the hardest part of it.

Hawkeye prepares to fire with his bow and arrow mid-plummet
Demonstrating considerable chutzpah, the acrobatic Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) prepares to unleash some mid-air whoop-ass on an off-screen enemy in this shot, which looks extra cool thanks to the fiery chaos that can be glimpsed taking place just below him. This should totally be his Match.com profile photo, don't you agree?

I'm trying to boot off a live/persistant Kubuntu USB key on an old
machine which has "boot from USB FDD" support. The Kubuntu USB drive
boots and runs fine on my normal PC.
The USB FDD bootup is selected on bootup and USB/FDD Emulation is
turned on in the BIOS (I tried with it off as well). It refuses to
detect the drive. Is there some way of making it think that this
device is a FDD? I don't have a USB FDD to test that the USB FDD
support really works. I have the latest BIOS.
Otherwise, I guess that I'll need to use the live CD with USB drive
persistance. I want to be portable.. but would rather only need to
carry around and rely on one item and not two (CD / USB drive).
It also seemed that booting USB drive was slower than the CD...

Teen Health
Teen Drinking and Driving Down
Teen Drinking and Driving: State by State
Of the 41 states with available data for teen drinking and driving in 2011, the rates varied from 4.6% of teens in Utah to 14.5% in North Dakota.
Besides North Dakota, these states also reported higher rates of teens drinking and driving. All had rates of 11.3% or higher:
- Alabama
- Iowa
- Louisiana
- Mississippi
- Montana
- New Mexico
- South Carolina
- South Dakota
- Texas
- Wisconsin
- Wyoming
Data were not available for California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Missouri, Pennsylvania, or Maine.
Besides Utah, the states reporting lower rates of teen drinking and driving, with 4.6% to 8.9% of teens reporting the behavior, included:
- Alaska
- Colorado
- Georgia
- Indiana
- Kentucky
- Massachusetts
- Michigan
- New York
- North Carolina
- Rhode Island
- Virginia
- West Virginia
Work Left to Do
To further reduce teen drinking and driving, parents can take a number of steps, Frieden said. "Parents are a key part of the equation here."
They can lead as examples of safe drivers, and do so well before their child is of driving age.
Parents can also provide teens with a safe way to get home if they have been drinking and driving, he said.
Parents can also consider drawing up a parent-and-teen driving agreement, in which the teen agrees to such terms as obeying the speed limit and contacting the parents if he or she needs a ride home. The CDC has a model agreement that parents can use.

Well, if they went to all that trouble, they should tell all the people in
the world who agree with them that they have the one and only 100% compliant

SPA REVIEWS: Scottsdale's Golden Door Spa at The Boulders
I have woken up to a panorama of massive golden boulders teetering upon one another, as if a giant toddler has just stacked them like wooden building blocks. Decades-old saguaros raise their arms to the sky—thanking the heavens for the view, perhaps. A family of tiara'd quail skirt past me, followed swiftly by a lone coyote. The morning air is hot and dry like a natural sauna, and it smells like Mexican lavender and sage. Save for the occasional breeze rustling the bright green palo verde trees, there's not a sound to break the silence. I feel like I've traveled about 12 million years back in time, and if only I had only packed a one-shouldered fur dress to wear, my transformation to Raquel Welch circa one million B.C. would be complete.
I am at the Boulders Resort, a Waldorf Astoria hotel set on 1,300 acres of pristine Arizona desert, and today I will experience the resort's Golden Door Spa. Like its sister property in Escondido, California, Scottsdale's Golden Door offers Zen-like, Asian-inspired ambience, with carved wooden doors that evoke an Indian fort-palace. But within this stark and sculptural landscape, the spa also draws upon the healing serenity of the desert. The 33,000-square-foot space rises like a modern adobe hacienda before a towering block of honey-colored rock facade. Inside the sun-filled spa lobby, a black clay fireplace, Native American woven baskets, cracked stone floors, cacti, and floor-to-ceiling views of the famed boulders and color-streaked landscape remind spa-goers they're amid an ancient, other-worldly desert.
I'm here to sample a series of indigenous spa treatments, massages, facials and wraps that channel the healing and pampering powers of local herbs, flowers and traditions. I'm told that people from all over the world travel to the Boulders to experience an unnamed magic that emanates from its grounds and stone monuments; they also come to be enlightened by centuries-old Native American wisdom. "The property, with its boulders and cultural inheritance, is magical," says spa therapist Kelli Casella. "Our guests are always very inquisitive about the local customs. They find the Southwestern lifestyle really intriguing—it's grounded, down to earth, serene and quiet, like the desert itself. By drawing from local remedies, plants, herbs and beliefs, we give clients another way to experience this special place." —By Alison Singh Gee

The elliptical provides an effective, low-impact cardiovascular workout. Like all cardio work, you have to know how to breathe for best results. As you increase the intensity of the workout, your body needs to take in more oxygen and release carbon dioxide. By learning to regulate your breathing on the elliptical, you can increase your endurance and increase the benefits of this aerobic exercise.
Warm up for five to ten minutes at an easy pace. This will prepare your body for the real workout by increasing your heart rate and warming up your muscles. During warm up, focus on breathing deeply by working your abdominal muscles in and out with every breath.
Establish a breathing pattern as you gradually increase the intensity of the exercise. Maintaining a regular rhythm of breathing will help you acquire the maximum amount of oxygen while getting rid of carbon dioxide. Measure your breathing in strides, such as exhaling on your left step and inhaling on your right. Many runners use a 3:2 ratio where they inhale during the left-right-left move and then exhale during the right-left move. Repeat.
Keep pacing your breathing with the rhythm of your strides as you increase your exercise intensity. Your body will naturally try to use faster, shorter breaths as you increase the speed or resistance on the elliptical, but you must try and maintain a regular pace to oxygenate yourself properly. If you start panting or have trouble breathing, you may need to slow down.
Finish your training session with five to ten minutes of cool down in which you decrease your elliptical activity to an easy pace. This will allow your breathing and heart rate to return to their normal levels. Continue to breathe deeply through the abdomen like you did in the warm up.
- If you listen to music while on the elliptical, make sure the beat doesn't throw off your breathing pattern.
- Consult your doctor or physical therapist before starting any new exercise routine.

First products get new 802.11n draft 2.0 certification
Austin (TX) - The Wi-Fi Alliance announced this week that it has certified the first slate of products to carry the new certification of 802.11n draft 2.0.
The new standard aims for industry-wide interoperability to allow completely networked homes and businesses to be more of a reality. This includes wireless transfer of photos, music, video, and other data.
"Consumers can now purchase products with improved performance and be assured of interoperability," said Gartner Research VP and analyst Ken Dulaney. The specification will be named simply 802.11n when it is finalized.
Products given the initial certification include Intel's Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN, Broadcom's 802.11n router and card, Cisco Access Point, and Marvell TopDog WLAN solutions, as well products from Atheros and Ralink.
In addition, the alliance also introduced a new logo for the 802.11n certification. The wireless standard is slated for a launch by the end of June.

High-risk UK Tier 4 visa applicants - tougher interviews from 30 July
10 July 2012
For concise and recent immigration information watch our news.UK Immigration Minister Damian Green announced that a targeted interview system for Tier 4 student visa applicants will be introduced 30 July and will focus on high-risk applicants. It is not clear yet how UK Immigration will determine who is a high-risk applicant.
Latest news
"With more interviews and greater powers to refuse bogus students we will weed out abuse and protect the UK from those looking to play the system," said Green. "Under the current system UK Border Agency officers are unable to refuse some applications even if they have serious concerns over the credibility of the student - we are toughening up the system to ensure genuine students benefit from our country's excellent education sector."
The UKBA carried out a pilot programme for the new interviewing system last year to address concerns about the legitimacy of some applicants. More than 2,300 student visa applicants were interviewed in 13 overseas posts with the aim of testing how effective face-to-face interviews would be in addition to existing strict application processes that consider fraud and other factors.
Under the pilot, around a fifth of the applicants were refused entry to the UK based on their performance at interview. One of the main issues was the inability of interviewees to show the required level of English. Some were unable to answer basic questions in English without the aid of an interpreter, despite stating on their Tier 4 visa application that they had the necessary language qualifications to meet the higher education standards in the UK.
The UK Home Office stated that the highest levels of refusals on credibility grounds were found among Tier 4 visa applicants from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Burma, Nigeria and the Philippines. It is expected that the interview programme will be targeted on those who apply for student visas from those countries.
"Britain is open for business to the brightest and the best migrants but the message is clear - if you lie on your application form or try to hide your true motivation for coming to the UK then you will be found out and refused a visa," added Green.
If you would like to apply for a UK visa workpermit.com can help. workpermit.com is a specialist visa consultancy with nearly twenty-five years of experience dealing with visa applications. We can help with a wide range of visa applications to your country of choice. Please feel free to contact us for further details.

Gov of S.C. Says State Will Be Supportive of Boeing
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley says she feels bad for the governor of Washington after this week's union vote on the Boeing 777X.
Haley, who has long opposed unions, says it's terrible when a company like Boeing is trying to work in a state and the union, as she put it, "comes in and kills it."
Haley has spoken to top company officials to assure them South Carolina supports the company. But she said it's too early to talk about whether South Carolina will try to draw up incentives to lure the 777X.
The machinists union in Washington state this week rejected a contract that would have kept the 777X work there. Other South Carolina lawmakers have said the union vote puts the state in the mix for the 777X.

Ace Vocabulary Questions on Your Catholic High School Entrance Exam
Part of the Catholic High School Entrance Exams For Dummies Cheat Sheet
The Catholic high school(s) you're applying to want(s) to know how strong your vocabulary is. That's why the HSPT, COOP, and TACHS all ask vocabulary questions. To answer as many of them correctly as possible, do the following:
Start reading a lot and watch for unfamiliar words. When you see them, look up their meanings and make flashcards of the words and their definitions.
Memorize common prefixes, roots, and suffixes.
Know whether you're looking for synonyms, antonyms, or analogies.
Check the context of the word if it's given to you. In other words, use what you know about the words that the underlined word is put with to figure out the specific meaning that the test is looking for.
Try breaking up a word if you don't know what it means. For instance, you may not know the meaning of counterpoint, but you know that the prefix counter means "against," and you probably know that a point is a position or stance. By breaking down the word, you can deduce that counterpoint means "against a stance," which is pretty close to its actual meaning of "a contrasting but related element or theme."

I recently had the chance to sample the entire range of BMW passenger cars. Okay, that's a bit of a stretch, but I did drive our long term BMW 135i for a night and then the range-topping BMW 760Li the next night. It was interesting to go from the smallest BMW right to the largest. Ironically, the smallest BMW is the newest and the flagship car is showing its age. I suppose that's a good description of the owners of the 1-series and 7-series, respectively.
The 135i feels very energetic, young, and downright tiny. The car is a blast to flick through a turn and every gear change is rewarding. Power from the twin-turbo inline-six seems to be infinite and our car is about as minimalist as you can find at a BMW dealer: no iDrive, no navigation, no Bluetooth, and plain white paint. Basically, this is the definition of an enthusiast's car. Staffers are split on the $40,000 sticker price; some of us think it's a bargain to get the twin-turbo six for less than 40 grand, but others think the jump to a 335i is worth the extra money. Nobody is complaining about the way this car drives.
Sliding behind the wheel of the 760Li feels very different. A dizzying array of controls, buttons, and dials takes up the dashboard and steering wheel. This 760Li is pretty much loaded and comes with the worst iteration of iDrive currently on the market. I'm not an iDrive basher, but the 3- and 5-series have much more logical iDrive controls, which should be remedied when the new 7-series debuts this fall at the Paris Motor Show. The 760Li is propelled by a normally aspirated V-12 and the power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. Power delivery is incredibly smooth and linear, not explosive like the 135i. The 7 feels much more dignified when you depress the accelerator and tip-in isn't as sharp as the 1. Luxury features abound and the air-conditioned seats (with massage feature) were most welcome as the mercury approached 90 degrees. Our 760Li test car carries an incredible $148,620 sticker.
There's really no comparison between the 760Li and the 135i. Buyers are completely different, but it's fun to think you could buy a small fleet of 135s for the price of a lone 760. I'd prefer a 335i wagon to either of these Bavarians, but I wouldn't turn down another chance to drive either of the bookends.

Secretary's Column: Serving Up Healthy Food and a Healthier Next Generation
This article was originally posted on ServiceNation.org. Read the original here.
As Secretary of Agriculture, I take USDA's nickname of the "People's Department"—first coined by President Abraham Lincoln—to heart. Over the past five years, we have worked hard to build upon our tradition of service to the American people, supporting both the farmers and ranchers who grow our food and giving American families confidence that the food they buy at the grocery store is safe, healthy and affordable.
We could not accomplish our mission without the contributions of partner organizations and individual volunteers across the country. While our work with volunteers is by no means exclusive to nutrition and nutrition education, volunteers act as our boots on the ground in classrooms and communities to teach kids about where food comes from and why the diet and lifestyle choices they make today matter for their future. Volunteers, along with parents, teachers, school administrators, and school food service professionals, are absolutely critical to our efforts to improve childhood nutrition and help this generation of youngsters grow up healthy and strong.

Laurier Alumni Reconnect to Build Startup After 20+ Combined Years in Corporate Sales
After 10 years at Lexmark, Laurier Alumnus Mark Elliott shook things up and joined a Canadian relocation and moving business. As the General Manager Mark was left with the responsibility to make it happen and re-build the Allied International Toronto team.
Having kept in touch with his close university friend, Steve Gruber, Mark reached out to see if he'd be interested in joining Allied as the Director of Sales! With little hesitation Steve jumped at the opportunity seeing this as a great opportunity to not only build a small business, but work with one of his closest friends from University!
As time went on Mark and Steve identified two things: 1) they were great at sales, and 2) the relocation and moving industry wasn't their cup of tea.
Knowing this, Mark and Steve began to search for an opportunity to create their own venture to employ the sales expertise they developed over the combined 20+ years working in large corporations sales. After reconnecting with one of their professors from Laurier, Dr. Laurence Hewick, Steve and Mark identified a growing number of technology startups building incredible technology solving real-life problems, but many without a sales strategy in place to bring their products to market.
After testing their initial assumptions with a technology startup in the Hamilton Region, Mark and Steve confirmed a serious problem did exist within the technology startup sector. Shortly after in 2006, VA Partners was born!
After discovering their initial target market it was time for Mark and Steve to roll up their sleeves and validate a repetitive and reliable business model. To achieve this, VA Partners was focused on part-time sales for technology startups for the first three years in business.
"The initial stages of our business, where we were validating a repetitive and reliable business model, were the most challenging days to date. After a few pivots the biggest lesson we learned during this phase was to grow correctly and not out-pace your product or service. In the initial days we worked exclusively with select clients to refine the VA Partners value proposition, best practices, our service methodology, and an effective lead generation tool to find new clients," says Mark Elliott.
After reaching this crucial milestone of problem-solution fit, VA Partners shifted their focus to scaling their business and building out the VA Partners team. When searching for top talent to join the VA Partners team, Mark and Steve immediately returned to their alma mater, Laurier!
"The best thing about Laurier is the people, both your classmates and professors. Having been a co-op student myself I knew first hand that Laurier students were graduating with a wealth of real life experience working in groups, delivering high impact presentations and working on multiple time lines; all things we needed!"
Currently 80% of the VA Partners team is Laurier Alumni, and growing!
Today, VA Partners offers startups and growing Canadian businesses part-time sales, marketing, and social media services to help growing companies quickly establish a strategic sales process, build a sales funnel of qualified leads and close deals quicker. VA Partners also helps businesses learn how to leverage social media, CRM tools and develop marketing and content marketing strategies to make it happen!

Verbos con partícula
Middle English (denoting an instrument to determine whether a surface is horizontal): from Old French livel, based on Latin libella, diminutive of libra 'scales, balance'.
The ultimate root of level is Latin libra 'scales, balance', also the source of the sign of the zodiac Libra (Late Middle English). It has many senses in English, the earliest being 'an instrument used to determine if a surface is horizontal', as in spirit level (mid 18th century). Since the 1980s the image of a level playing field has been a cliché of business and politics. In games, an uneven playing surface will favour the home side, who will be more familiar with its hazards. See also deliberate
