Over the previous few decades, Williamsport has become regionally renowned for its arts scene and cultural capital. Thanks to a recent initiative by the James V. Brown Library, this wealth will continue to flourish, and begin to create footprints globally.
The library recently was chosen to participate in Film Forward: Advancing Cultural Dialogue, a partnership of the Sundance Institute and various U.S. Federal Cultural agencies. The partnership presents an "international program designed to enhance greater cultural understanding, collaboration and dialogue around the globe by engaging audiences through the exhibition of films, workshops and conversations," according to the Film Forward press release.
Because Pennsylvania is one of only eight locations worldwide chosen to host the Film Forward, it is an especially unique honor to have the Sundance Initiative's program in Williamsport.

"Pennsylvania is the first state attempting multiple viewings through this partnership as a way to increase the reach of the films and the topics explored by them," Dana Brigandi, the library's leadership assistant and media coordinator, said. "Without this unique agreement, people would have to go to Harrisburg to see these films, which could be a burden for those in rural areas. The Brown Library strongly believed that bringing these films and their discussions would be extremely educational for our community, so we partnered with the State Library of Pennsylvania to offer this in Williamsport."
Bringing Film Forward to Williamsport has been no small feat. From forming state agency partnerships, to relying on steadfast community-based sponsors, the Sundance Initiative's arrival in Williamsport required a team effort. Brigandi stressed the particular importance of community partners in bringing the Film Forward initiative to town.
"We are fortunate to have incredible community partners in Lycoming College, the Community Arts Center, the Central Pennsylvania Film Commission and Uptown Music Collective, along with local educator and longtime movie critic Joseph W. Smith III." (Ed. note: Smith also is a movie critic for the Showcase)
In all, four films will have been featured in Williamsport through April 25. Two films will be screened at the Brown Library and the others will be at the Community Arts Center and Lycoming College, featuring "extremely knowlegeable presenters from our partnering groups who are sure to lead thought-provoking discussions," Brigandi said. The films range a variety of genres, and were selected "with our community in mind and what we believe they are interested in: women's rights, religion, music and education," she added. According to Keri Putnam, Sundance Institute executive director, each film presents "an extraordinary representation of universal themes that will inspire and challenge audiences to look at their community and our world in a new way."
With the first film showing complete, the rest of the library's films and presenters are as follows:
"If You Build It" - 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Lowry Theatre, Welch Wing, James V. Brown Library. "If You Build It" spends a year in the life of one of America's most innovative classrooms. Designer/activists Emily Pilloton and Matt Miller, together with their high school students, unleash the power of humanitarian design to help their struggling community in rural North Carolina. Lorena Beniquez of the Central Pennsylvania Film Office will facilitate.
"Twenty Feet From Stardom" - 6 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Community Arts Center. Millions know their voices, but no one knows their names. The Academy Award winning documentary, "Twenty Feet From Stardom," shines a spotlight on the untold true story of the backup singers behind some of the greatest musical legends of the 21st century. Jared Mondell from Uptown Music Collective will facilitate.
"Circles" - 6 to 9 p.m. April 25, Lowry Theatre, Welch Wing, James V. Brown Library. Five people are affected by a tragic heroic act. Twenty years later, all of them will have to confront the past through their own crises. Will they overcome the guilt, frustration and the urge for revenge? Will they do the right thing, at all costs? Joseph W. Smith III will facilitate.

hate gdp...makes me crash everytime.
bought a nice, small chillum recently. i love itttttt.
make some qwiso if you have a shitload.
are you on misc?
ME and my friend are going to cop a half ounce of "shrek" for 70 bucks this weekend. I never heard of shrek and im pretty sure he made it up, but he said that it is some fat ass nugs so im hoping its...
smoked some afghan goo. shit was legittt.
ahah yea i feel ya. I havent smoked long enough to get rid of the hyper feeling and i love it. Anytime i get some GDP or any purp, i tend to crash pretty hard so i always look to get sativas.
Og Kush, blue dream, gods gift, mr nice guy, or any sativas should give you a heady high. My favorite out of the ones i mentioned had to be gods gift, then blue dream, then mr niceguy and og kush.
What do you guys think would be more useful: a fisheye or wide angle? I also film BMX with my camera so i guess thatll also sway my decision.
I was lookin at these fisheyes: ...
damn that spray shit looks pretty tight.
well if youre lookin to use the video mode, t1i is most definately better. But other than that, it is basically the same, except that d5000 has the screen that comes out, which i think is stupid. If...
Well its not up anymore so i dont see it.
Also if you knew the risks, why did you try to refund it when you already knew they wouldnt? Its not their fault they wouldnt refund something that...
you guys are retarded, they clearly stated that if it doesnt work, there is no refund so dont be blaming 0ink for not refunding your money. you took the risk of buying something that had a high...
they have it in officemax or officedepot
those panning pictures are grainy as fuck. Lower your iso to around 400.
jus dont do it. itll look streaky and itll be to watery to flow thru that.
thats ugly.
keep the marker facing up, as in keep the nib facing towards the sky.
bahaha sorry im american. Never heard the word "torch" in use as a flashlight.
ah shit i thought torches were those bigger industrial lights with the stands and shit.
yea i did use manual focus but it was to dark to know if it was focused or not. how much can you buy a torch for?
alright fasho. Its freakin hard focusing well at night. I came back with so many blurry ass pictures.
shitty and blurry
me likey...
i have that camera. I like it.
Whats the best setting to shoot when doing like 5-30 second exposures? by setting i mean f-stop, iso, etc.
none are really that good. they are really out of focus and such. And there is no canon rebel xs t1i. There is a Canon Rebel XS and a Canon Rebel T1i, but they are two different cameras.

Simian Mobile Disco – Seraphim
March 3rd, 2012
"Seraphim" is the new single from electro duo Simian Mobile Disco's new Unpatterns LP, expected this May.

By Bruce Rave OK I'll admit it, I rarely "fave" unsigned bands.

An explosion of song, color and dance overflows from the Ahmanson's considerable stage.
An explosion of song, color and dance that overflows from the Ahmanson's considerable stage, "Mary Poppins" is the rare touring production that over-delivers at every level. Broadway leads Ashley Brown and Gavin Lee deliver pert, perfectly tuned perfs, and every element that surrounds them — the ensemble, Bob Crowley's tone-shifting sets and costumes, the powerhouse orchestra — makes this one of the most satisfying road shows to hit an L.A. stage.
The technical razzle-dazzle of the West End-Broadway hit not only remains intact, the execution is spot-on — from the grand (airborne kites, a nanny that flies and another who dissolves) to the subtle (a flower responding to a scream, a magic trick involving a bouquet and a canvas). Second act's "Step in Time" is the evening's show-stopper, an adroit combination of tap, "Stomp" and Astaire. As mesmerizing as "Jolly Holiday" is in the first act — Van Gogh in an ice cream parlor colors, stately movement and the first of many full-bodied group vocal performances — the complexity of "Step's" steps push the show into another realm. Impressively, the stage craft always complements the story: Director-choreographers Richard Eyre and Matthew Bourne fill the stage and then some without raising doubt as to where the eye should focus.
As the otherworldly nanny Poppins and spirited chimney sweep Bert, Brown and Lee negotiate rooftops, bedrooms and the out-of-doors with compelling assuredness. Their flawlessness sets a standard that the ensemble meets, and that includes even the youngsters Bailey Gray and Carter Thomas, who play brattiness, amazement and the need to be loved without artifice. Their transformation under Poppins is affecting viscerally; it's more convincing than the catharsis Mom and Pop Banks (Megan Osterhaus and Karl Kenzler) experience as they negotiate marital and family issues.
Curiously, the 2009 tour of "Poppins" bears newborn resonance that did not exist when unveiled in the anything-goes economic climate of 2004. Though the story is set 100 years ago, the Banks family's fear that George (Kenzler) will lose his job and home due to bad financial decisions has a striking relevance to modern times. Crowley's depiction of the financial world (old and menacing in shades of gray and black) feels all the more realistic in the wake of the financial crisis of the last two years. It's a cartoon in one sense, but an ominous reality in this day and age.
Of course, not everyone is about to be offered quadruple their salary to return to an old job as happens to George. But by enhancing the plot point that gave the 1964 Disney film its Hollywood ending — that family time is as important as logging hours at the workplace — "Poppins" appears mighty prescient, a colorful balm for hard times and a sumptuous buffet during the good.
Certainly family-friendly, the distinction between dark and light, the disposal of the "holy terror" nanny and the anthropomorphism of the kids' toys may be too mystifying or frightening for preschoolers.

Weatherman hiking is about enjoying the company of fellow hikers, observing nature and returning home enriched by a wonderful experience. Two different routes are available: the short route of about one hour, and the longer, two-hour route which offers the opportunity for a refreshing drink at the mountain pub "Guggeli-Besenbeiz".
The inventors of the Weatherman Hiking Trail, the "Wetterschmöcker" (Weather Tasters/Forecasters) of Central Switzerland, are known beyond the country's borders. Although they are sometimes ridiculed, their work should be taken seriously: With a success rate of up to 80%, their predictions are much better than random guesses.

The Miami Dolphins and rookie Dion Jordan reached a contract agreement on a four-year deal Saturday afternoon, meaning the team's first-round pick should be on the field for the summer's first training camp practice Sunday. It is believed the deal will pay Jordan approximately $20 million with an estimated $13 million guaranteed. Foxsports.com reported that Jordan's deal did include the offset language, which had been a sticking point in the negotiations, but it also had a provision giving the pass rusher more guaranteed money earlier in the deal.

In Liz Weston's latest column on MSN Money [3], she shares a list of ten things you should never buy used. Those familiar with this older Your Take on What Would You Never Buy Used? [4] will see a lot of familiar items (mattresses!)
Here's her list:
- Laptops
- Car seats
- Plasma and HD TVs
- DVD players
- Vacuum cleaners
- Digital cameras, video cameras
- Shoes
- Mattresses
- Wet suits
- Helmets
There's a basic logic on what you shouldn't buy used and it's straightforward.
- Don't buy any used safety equipment unless it's been thoroughly inspected by professionals – this explains why something like a car seat and a helmet is on the list.
- Don't buy any extremely personal products, especially if it conforms to your body. This explains wet suits, shoes, and mattresses.
- Finally, don't buy something in which you can't confirm, visually or otherwise, that it's hasn't been abused. It's hard to determine how well maintained TVs, DVD players, vacuums, and other electronic devices have been care for by their previous owners.
That said – don't let those three rules stop you from getting a good deal if you can overcome the rule. For example, if you can get a mechanic to thoroughly inspect a used vehicle (or buy it from a dealership that offers a warranty and a certified inspection), by all means take advantage of it. The list and the rules should be viewed as a guideline, rather as an immutable law.

(ncurses panel)
These are the functions in the
(ncurses panel) module.
Panels are curses windows with the added feature of depth. Panel
functions allow the use of stacked windows and ensure the proper
portions of each window and the curses
stdscr window are hidden
or displayed when panels are added, moved, modified or removed. The
set of currently visible panels is the stack of panels. The
stdscr window is beneath all panels, and is not considered part
of the stack.
A window is associated with every panel. The panel routines enable you to create, move, hide, and show panels, as well as position a panel at any desired location in the stack.
Panel routines are a functional layer added to curses, make only high-level curses calls, and work anywhere terminfo curses does.
This procedure allocates a PANEL structure, associates it with win, places the panel on the top of the stack (causes it to be displayed above any other panel) and returns the new panel.
This procedure refreshes the virtual screen to reflect the relations
between the panels in the stack, but does not call
doupdate to
refresh the physical screen. Use this function and not
update-panels may be called more than
once before a call to
doupdate, but
doupdate is the
procedure responsible for updating the physical screen.
This procedure removes the given panel from the stack and invalidates pan
This procedure removes the given panel from the panel stack and thus hides it from view. The panel pan is not lost, merely removed from the stack.
This procedure returns
#t if the panel is in the panel stack,
#f if it is not.
This procedure makes a hidden panel visible by placing it on top of the panels in the panel stack.
This procedure puts the given visible panel on top of all panels in the stack.
This procedure puts the panel at the bottom of all panels.
This procedure moves the given panel window so that its upper-left
corner is at starty, startx. It does not change the
position of the panel in the stack. Be sure to use this function, not
mvwin, to move a panel window.
This procedure replaces the current window of panel with window (useful, for example if you want to resize a panel; It does not change the position of the panel in the stack.

text: When you go to into a completely strange environment and probably don't know the language and might be feeling really anxious about it, then understanding something about cultural norms, the politics and history of the country, understanding how best to behave, understanding the relationship between men and women, and understanding some of the language can make a crucial difference to your experience.Katie Fewings, Responsible Tourism AwardsMany of us like the idea of 'doing something worthwhile' during our gap year. Of course if volunteering involves travelling to some of the most beautiful parts of the world then so much the better! We volunteer in the knowledge that as well as making a difference where it is needed most we will also discover new things about ourselves, and that pitching in together with like minded people is a great way to meet new friends. It's important that you choose your volunteering organisation carefully. Our advice would be to ask to see detailed reports on the effectiveness of the projects before you travel, and to ask how local people are involved in the decision making processes. Edward Abbey said 'sentiment without action is the ruin of the soul'.

I'd say go ahead and boil those bones in your poaching water for 5-6 hours with a splash of ACV.
If anything, it will just make for a richer broth.
Once the time is up, cool the broth in the sink or fridge until you have a layer of fat on the top.
It's best to scrape and discard this fat because it's high in omega 6 that you may have oxidized during prolonged heating.

text: The film The Shawshank Redemption (1994) and the book, Zeitoun (2010), display the correctional issues, which this paper is going to examine, in American prisons. In The Shawshank Redemption (1994), the main characters of the book, Andy Dufresne, Red, and Brooks, deprived of their liberty and far from society�s attention, need to adapt to a corrupt and ruthless system in the 1940s. These prisoners exhibit different ways of coping with their isolation from the outside world. Andy Dufresne, a young banker, wrongfully accused of the double murder of his wife and her lover, initially has hard time adjusting to life between prison walls. He is numerous times brutally beaten by a vicious gang, but this experience does not break him down. These beatings have made Andy stronger and he was able to preserve his self-worth. Andy survives living in the Shawshank prison only through his hope that one day he will be free. He believes that hope is what will save him. Moreover, Andy is the only person in Shawshank who gives hope to prisoners and inspire them to not breakdown, as he did not. By helping others, Andy reminds himself of who he truly is � a strong man. Inmates see in him the support that the prison system should have given them. Andy befriends another long termer, Red. Red adapts in prison by smuggling in contraband as a means of survival, and through his friendship with Andy. Red smuggles any contraband to inmates and correctional officers from the outside world. Brooks, who has been incarcerated for nearly fifty years, survives in prison though his work as a librarian and through his friendship with a newly born bird which he raises. The purpose of prisons like Shawshank is to rehabilitate people by engaging them in different programs that will benefit the inmates in various ways. However, instead of building moral characters and providing prisoners opportunities for adjusting in society inside of prison and outside of it, the prison personnel of Shawshank utilizes the prison for personal gains. Furthermore, in order to survive inmates need to adapt to this immoral world. Perhaps, as Frank Darabont, the director of the film emphasizes, only hope and friendship can help prisoners to not lose their identities and humanity. Despite the immoral prison�s conditions each one of them, Andy, Red, Brooks, and the rest of the prisoners, find their ways to adapt to and survive the prison system. Similarly, in Eggers� book, Zeitoun (2010), its main character of the book, Abdulrahman Zeitoun, manages to adapt and survive his stay in the maximum security prison, Elayn Hunt. Abdulrahman Zeitoun is the heroic and religious American citizen of Syrian background, who refuses to leave New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina in 2005 (Eggers, 2010). He stays in new Orleans to care for his painting and contracting company�s premises, and to help those people who did not leave the city like him (Eggers, 2010). He is picked up from one of his properties by guard men and is accused of being a �Taliban� (Eggers, 2010). Then, he is held in a maximum security prison (Eggers, 2010). The only hope he has to bear with his wrongful imprisonment is his faith in God (Eggers, 2010). He finds peace through prayers (Eggers, 2010). In addition, Zeitoun�s love for his family helps him preserve his self worth (Eggers, 2010).

Straight is Better: Why Law and Society May Legitimately Prefer Heterosexuality
George W. Dent Jr.
Case Western Reserve University School of Law
July 27, 2010
Texas Review of Law & Politics, Vol. 15, p. 359, 2011
Case Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2010-22
America is embroiled in a culture war over homosexuality. The homosexual movement demands the end of "heteronormativity" - the social and legal preference for heterosexuality. It insists that "Gay Is Good" - just as good as heterosexuality. This article presents a defense of heteronormativity; it argues that straight is better. In particular, it argues that naturally conceiving, bearing and raising children is intrinsically good for parents; that it is both intrinsically and instrumentally good for children to be raised by their biological parents who are married to each other; and that traditional marriage is both intrinsically and instrumentally good for women and men. Because of the unique benefits of traditional marriage, it is also beneficial to society. Because of these benefits, society may legitimately favor heterosexuality (e.g., in public education), although it may not punish other forms of sexual behavior that are not harmful.

Millcreek Township tea house steeped in charm
There's something about a cup of tea that inspires calm and conversation. Perhaps it's that getting a good cup requires a little extra time and patience while the tea steeps.
Sipping tea from a pretty cup painted with dainty or flowery designs also feels feminine and special.
Whenever I get my hands on a cup of tea, I often treat it like a good friend, my hands hugging the mug or teapot to share a bit of its warmth.
At the Stonehouse Step Back in Time Tea House, I was treated to all these experiences and more.
The restaurant, which is located in the historic Stonehouse Inn, along West Lake Road, is the perfect setting for a small group of family or friends to catch up and enjoy each others' company.
And that's just what I did when my longtime family friend and honorary mother, Barbara Waters, was in town recently for a visit.
We stopped for breakfast, which was recently expanded from Saturday and Sunday only to daily.
Like the cozy dining room, the menu isn't large, yet it offers something for everyone -- from eggs and blueberry pancakes to sausage gravy over biscuits.
No matter what you choose, you'll find it's homemade and reasonably priced.
Barb went with a traditional breakfast of scrambled eggs, sausage links and rye toast with a cup of coffee. It arrived in no time, with a large portion of perfectly cooked, fluffy eggs.
At the recommendation of server and co-owner Helen Cubitt, I tried the frittata, a baked egg dish. You may add your choice of cheese and meat or veggie topping to the frittata. I chose cheddar and sausage with a side of Italian toast. The frittata was deliciously light and moist.
Because I start each day with a cup of tea, I was excited by the huge selection of specialty teas offered including apple cranberry, blueberry nutmeg, coconut rum, chun mee green tea, cinnamon spice, ice wine, marzipan and orange. I chose the blueberry nutmeg, which had a slightly fruity flavor and a wonderful aroma. (Not to mention a darling red polka dot teapot.)
In no time at all, we had our breakfast and a wonderful opportunity to step back in time and catch up with each other.
I can't wait to come again for the high tea, which is by appointment only and includes sandwich and soup or salad, fruit, dessert and, of course, tea.

Cord Blood Labs Diseases Treated by Cord Blood Stem Cells Comparing Cord Blood Banks Join us on Facebook and Twitter See us on YouTube! AABB Accredited News…. Stem Cells May Help in Type 1 Diabetes This release is from medpagetoday.com Therapy using the patient's lymphocytes passed through a device with cord blood stem cells may "educate" the patient's cells to provide safe, lasting treatment for patients with type 1 diabetes, according to the results of a small Chinese study. Those patients with moderate diabetes and some residual beta cell function (Group A) exhibited improved fasting C-peptide levels at 12 and 24 weeks post-treatment, Yong Zhao, PhD, of the University of Illinois at Chicago, and colleagues reported online in BMC Medicine. Patients with more severe disease and no residual beta cell function (Group B) also showed improvement at every follow-up. Treatment consisted of passing lymphocytes from the patient's blood through discs containing adherent multipotent cord blood stem cells. After two or three hours, the lymphocytes were collected and returned to the patient. No participants suffered any serious adverse events, reporting only mild discomfort during venipuncture and apheresis, which resolved at the conclusion of the procedure. There were also no significant differences at 24 hours after treatment in white blood cell counts or body temperature. In the phase I/II open-label trial, the researchers enrolled 15 patients with type 1 diabetes (mean duration 8.5 ± 6.4 years) receiving care at the General Hospital of the Jinan Military District. Patients were enrolled if they met the 2010 diagnosis criteria of the American Diabetes Association and blood tests found at least one autoantibody to pancreatic islet beta cells. Exclusion criteria included liver, kidney, or heart disease, pregnancy, use of immunosuppressive medications, viral diseases, or immunodeficiency diseases. After two days of hospitalization to monitor early adverse reactions, follow-ups were scheduled at 4, 12, 24, 40 weeks after treatment. Twelve patients were divided into two groups of six according to the severity of their diabetes and whether they had any residual beta cell function. Both cohorts were given full treatments. A third group of three individuals was given a single sham treatment to serve as a process-control. Addressing the autoimmunity that underlies type 1 diabetes has been a major impediment to using stem cells for long-term treatment. Studies in mice have shown that cord blood stem cells can be used to alter immune function and they have been shown to modulate the immune function of type 1 diabetes patient-derived islet beta cell-specific T cell clones. The researchers wanted to know if re-educating a patient's lymphocytes had the potential to address the autoimmunity concerns in a way that reduced donor risk, minimized ethical concerns, and avoided graft-versus-host disease. C-peptide production at baseline in Group B was less than the minimum sensitivity of the test following a 75-g oral glucose tolerance. They had marked improvement at 12 weeks that continued to 40 weeks (P=0.026). The control group showed no changes at any time. The median daily dose of insulin was reduced by 38% at 12 weeks (36 ± 13.2 units/day versus 22 ± 1.8 units/day) and 25% in the more severe group (48 ± 7.4 units/day versus 36 ± 4.4 units/day). These were maintained through the entire 24 weeks this measure was tracked. Median hemoglobin A1C showed similar results. In Group A the median was lowered from 8.73% ± 2.49 at baseline to 6.82% ± 0.49 at 12 weeks after treatment (P=0.019). This measure fell 1.68% ± 0.42 at 12 weeks in Group B with no change in the controls (P=0.86). These indicated to the authors that immune education of cord blood stem cells could lead to regeneration of islet beta cell function. They also measured changes in the CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T lymphocytes (Tregs) to see if measures of autoimmunity were altered. The percentage of Tregs in peripheral blood was significantly increased at 4 weeks in the treatment groups but not in the sham controls (P<0.0001). There was no evidence of transfer of the cord blood stem cells to the patients as a result of the process of treating the lymphocytes, according to the investigators. "This trial provides powerful evidence that exposing a patient's lymphocytes to [cord blood stem cells] can achieve the two essential outcomes required to cure T1D: reversal of autoimmunity and regeneration of islet beta cells," wrote the authors. "Importantly, the trial provides additional support for the mechanisms of [cord blood stem cells]-mediated immune response and demonstrates these mechanisms are apparent and lasting in patients."

About 85 percent of the heat generated in the iron is dissipated through its base whose surface area is 150 cm2, and the remaining 15 percent through other surfaces. Assuming the heat transfer from the surface to be uniform, determine (a) the amount of heat the iron dissipates during a 2-hour period, in kWh, (b) the heat flux on the surface of the iron base, in W/m2, and (c) the total cost of the electrical energy consumed during this 2-hour period. Take the unit cost of electricity to be $0.07/kWh.

Belmont Park: Jacobson sets record for wins at spring-summer meet
David Jacobson's domination at this meet hit record-setting status Sunday, when Abra won the sixth race by 10 lengths, enabling Jacobson to set a record for the most wins at a Belmont spring-summer stand.
Abra's front-running score was the 41st victory of the meet for Jacobson, eclipsing the mark of 40 wins set by Todd Pletcher at the 2003 spring-summer meeting. There still are four racing days remaining before the action on this circuit moves to Saratoga beginning July 19.
"It's very rewarding, it's amazing, all the above, and everything I didn't say," said Jacobson, who earlier on the card tied the record when Dust Em Mick rallied from off the pace to win the fourth.
Abra was a much easier winner, dropping down from the $35,000 claiming ranks to $16,000 and winning easily under David Cohen. Abra, like many of Jacobson's horses this summer, was claimed, this time by Linda Rice. Jacobson did claim Praetereo, the winner of the seventh, for $62,500.
Jacobson did not win with his other two runners on Sunday's card, Socialsaul (fifth in race 7) and Liquidity Trap (second in race 8). Jacobson, with 41 wins at the meet from 156 starters, will win his first Belmont spring-meet title. He leads Chad Brown and Todd Pletcher by 18 wins.
"When you come into a meet, you hope to win a lot of races, as many as you can, but this exceeded my expectations," Jacobson said. "With the kind of horses I have competing against Pletcher, [Bill] Mott, [Christophe] Clement, and Chad Brown, it's really something special when you pull this off."
Jacobson found it gratifying that he also ranks in the top three in purse money won at the meet with $1,559,516.
"I've been running the horses aggressively, running them in the right spots," Jacobson said. "My owners are happy, the riders are happy – they're on live horses – and I'm happy."
Jacobson's barn at Aqueduct has been under 24-hour surveillance since late May following a four-win day at Belmont.
The race track doesn't want to catch them. They can't stand the bad publicity.
Congrats to David
The DRF, TVG, and HRTV continually place these guys on pedestals in the same manner that ESPN praised Sosa and Bonds, and now creates a hero out of Ray Lewis. Sports in general has become a joke as the money has skyrocketed...horse racing is the piece de resistance. NYRA had Jacobson under surveillance, and he went from 30% to under 10% for a stretch, just like Cibelli went from leading trainer at MTH to a less than 10% hack now after being caught (though still unpunished!). Granted, Jacobson has recovered to set the BEL meet wins record, but everyone in the business knows that the people who are responsible for surveillance have no clue what they are looking for...once Jacobson got comfortable, the hits started coming again...its so blatantly clear, despite being circumstantial, that you have to believe the people who run racetracks must be the dumbest people on the planet, or they simply don't care. Yeah, Jacobson is aggressive and spots horses in good spots, but he also is borderline abusive the way he runs horses into the ground. Good horsemanship, I'm not so sure.
What a bunch of hypocritical people. David excels because he: 1. is an above average trainer 2. places his horses aggressively 3. has owners who have excelled at the claiming game for decades. These are racehorses. They are not pets. smh
I didn't know Labocetta Jr was his top assistant. How does a convicted felon get a trainer's license? He should be barred from the grounds. He had cocaine and heroin in his system when he severely injured a family near Saratoga during a car accident.
Ship to Suffolk please. Nobody wants to play chalk claimers. He makes races unbettable at Belmont.
Just as Rob Henie writes daily in the ECHR aka East Coast Handicapping Report, the "super feed" trainers claim off of one another while others usually stay clear of these guys. He addresses these barns daily, not sure why DRF and others don't sell the report, it's awesome, and no, I'm not a relative, lol. Sounds like it's catching on though, best report on NY racing, good stuff people should check out. As for Jacobson, hard to believe there ignorant people who believe he's just a good horseman, lol.
As Rob Henie writes in the ECHR - East Coast Handicapping Report everyday, there's a certain group of "super feed" trainers who claim off of one another, and few claim off of them! Everyday he accurately discusses the issues in race by race situations. Check it out. I'm not involved with the service but always tell my buddies about it, this issue resonates daily in the report with great info.......hope it helps some.
Jacobson started to catch fire when he hired banned trainer Frank Labocetta jr as an assisant

Anti-Muslim Ads on DC Metro
Oct 11, 2012
On Monday, signs went up in Metro stations in the Washington DC area attacking Muslims. The ads read: "In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man. Support Israel. Defeat Jihad." The ads promote inaccurate and inflammatory stereotypes about American Muslims, by linking "savages" to "jihad" and calling for their "defeat."
Muslims in the U.S. are increasingly targeted for hate crimes, and these ads support further violence.
In the New York subways, and now in DC, attempts to ban the signs have failed. First amendment free speech rights have trumped concerns about the "demeaning" nature of the message. So it's time to send a new message that love will trump hate.
Take action:
- Write a letter to the editors of the Washington Post and the Washington Times with a message that honors religious freedom and diversity.
- If you are a Metro customer, write to WMATA about your own experience riding the Metro and seeing these "hate" signs. Metro should not profit from a hateful, inflammatory message that attacks Metro customers.
Talking Points:
- I'm writing about the anti-Muslim ads paid for by the American Freedom Defense Initiative.
- The ads encourage discrimination against Muslims by comparing them to "savages" rather than "civilized men".
- When I see signs with hate messages, like the ones that went on display today, I feel attacked. Even though I am not Muslim myself, Muslims are my neighbors, my co-workers, my partners in the community.
- WMATA shouldn't profit from a message of hatred. Proceeds from the ads should go to the DC Human Rights Commission.
Shoulder to Shoulder with American Muslims
FCNL is participating with the Shoulder to Shoulder campaign to fund competing messages to be posted in the metro system. Our message says: "Hate speech is not civilized. Support peace in word and deed." We encourage you to sign Shoulder to Shoulder's petition to WMATA to donate the proceeds from the ad to the DC Human Rights Commission.

BEFORE I begin today's article, I wish to say that beginning next week, I will be doing a sequence of articles which deal with specific issues of national interest. These issues will be addressed from an objective rather than a personal perspective. To demonstrate this point, I wish to relate an incident that occurred in the late 80s while I was serving as a director on the Board of a financial institution. A staff member approached me complaining that another member of staff had been promoted over him. The complainant immediately launched into a personal attack on his peer. I informed him that I would not address the issue unless a case was presented which does not include a personal character assassination of his fellow worker, but dealt with the promotion criterion and not the individual.
In this election year, we should all try to deal with the issues at hand without personally attacking anyone, since in many cases, those on the receiving end are themselves unaware of the issue being discussed. For example, there will be lot of rumours of who is likely to fill positions in any new government. It is hoped that good sense will prevail, and that persons on all sides of the political divide make pronouncements on facts and not fiction.
I now wish to go into today's article. Recently, while heading home from work, I stopped at a gas station on the East Bank to purchase a bar of chocolate. A cursory examination of the expiry date revealed that the product just had four months to go before it reached the end of its shelf-life. When I pointed this out to the young cashier, she readily obliged and brought me another bar — which was also expired. So were the subsequent three or four other bars that she brought, something which caused her genuine surprise and embarrassment, judging from the look on her face. To the credit of the establishment, the supervisor who was present immediately removed all the chocolates from the shelf.
This incident was not, unfortunately, my first run-in with expired chocolate. A previous encounter involved chocolate from a fairly well-established entity, and the reason the person in charge gave for their stocking of expired confectionery was that the business had recently changed hands, and there was some slip-up in the stock tracking.
The above incidents were mentioned to introduce this week's area of critical attention: Our attitude towards food safety, particularly when it comes to paying attention to expiration dates.
A while ago, if I recall correctly, there was a report in the press about the Food and Drug Department seizing expired goods during a campaign targeting local retailers. Some of the goods seized were a month or so overdue at the time of the report, but others were past the date of expiration by almost, and sometimes even more than, one whole year.
We do not have a culture of general consumer vigilance or even awareness, so when we go to make our purchases, most of us often pick up item after item without taking even the quick glance it would need to determine whether something is expired or not.
Granted some retailers might have some stocktaking glitches; I know of instances where foodstuff is offered for a lower price, once they are past the expiry date by a few days or weeks.
To use the example of chocolate, usually the most serious consequence of eating chocolate after the expiry date – according to various sources – is a bad taste in your mouth, primarily from the cocoa butter, which forms the basis for most chocolate going rancid.
|'The shelf-life of chocolate," according to one website, "is generally a year. Ingredients such as nuts will shorten the shelf-life. Chocolate kept beyond one year may suffer flavour loss or texture changes.'
Fair enough, but what about other products which, if consumed past the expiry date, knowingly or unknowingly, may result in really harmful or even fatal consequences?
Looking up the issue online, I discovered that basically there are two major types of warning regarding the expiration date or shelf-life of products. The 'Use By' date is the date beyond which there is no guarantee of safety in consuming that particular item. Then there is the 'Best Before' date which basically means that while the product may not pose a health risk to you if consumed after this date, there is no guarantee of freshness or quality of taste if you do.
From further online research, and consulting with others whose knowledge of it exceeds my layman's perspective, the gravest danger from expired or inadequately preserved food products comes from botulism poisoning. While botulism from canned food has virtually been eliminated around the world, the WHO (World Health Organisation) still has it on its radar, enough in fact to feature a very useful Botulism Fact Sheet on its website.
|The botulinal toxin," the fact sheet reads, "has been found in a variety of foods, including low-acid preserved vegetables, such as green beans, spinach, mushrooms, and beets; fish, including canned tuna, fermented, smoked and salted fish; and meat products, such as ham, chicken and sausage.
One may be tempted to say that we don't have widespread or even sporadic cases of food poisoning from expired goods in Guyana, so a focus on consumer awareness of expiration dates is a non-issue; and I am not in a position to qualify the argument either for or against the extent of persons becoming ill from expired foods. The point of this column, however, is that as individuals, we need to adopt the best option in this situation when it comes to safeguarding our health: And that means taking the time to check if the food items you buy are past the expiry date. And as consumers, we need to ensure that we get value for our money, something there is no guarantee of receiving if we settle for products which are sold to us after their 'Use By' or 'Best Before' date.
Finally, another aspect of the Expiry Date issue which should be addressed is that of our attitude and awareness of the medicines we take, either over-the-counter (OTC) or by prescription. That one, however, deserves a column all by itself.

Want to get rid of that unwanted hair? Who doesn't?
Almost everyone has hair on their face, back, shoulders, chest, arms, underarms, breasts, hands, legs and bikini area that they spend tedious and painful time trying to rid. Waxing and shaving work, but they don't last forever, which is why laser hair removal is a great option.
At Refresh, we offer the latest in laser hair removal technology which provides you with permanent hair reduction. And, you get to experience it in the clean, calm, relaxing environment of a spa.
Contact Refresh Medical Day Spa & Hormonal Health today and schedule a free consultation.
Call us at 913-681-6200 or email email@example.com or fill out the form at the bottom of this page.
How does laser hair removal work?
The laser hair removal is the use of laser energy to heat the melanin, in the skin area that causes hair growth, the follicle, while not heating the rest of the skin. The heat then triggers inflammation in the hair follicle which cuases it to go into its resting phase. In this phase, the follicle will not produce hair.
Is it permanent?
The general perception is that laser hair removal is permanent. However, the FDA has defined laser hair removal as the long-term stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing after a treatment regimen, which means that laser hair removal will permanently reduce the total number of body hairs, it will not result in a permanent removal of all hair.
What type of hair does it work on?
Laser hair removal is most effective on black coarse hair. Because of the absorption of photons of laser light, black or brown hair is most successful.
How many treatments will I need?
More treatments are needed initially to maximize the reduction in hair removal, typically 3-8 treatments. After the initial set of treatments, some longer term maintenance will likely be required. Your Refresh aesthetician will consult with you to develop the most effective laser treatment plan.

NEW YORK - The fearsome bite of a hungry Tyrannosaurus rex left behind new evidence that the famous beast hunted for food and wasn't just a scavenger.
Researchers found a part of a T. rex tooth wedged between two tailbones of a duckbill dinosaur unearthed in northwestern South Dakota.
The tooth was partially enclosed by regrown bone, indicating the smaller duckbill had escaped from the T. rex and lived for months or years afterward.
Since the duckbill was alive and not just a carcass when it met the T. rex, the fossil provides definitive evidence that T. rex hunted live animals, researchers say in Monday's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Blood Sugar Monitoring and Treatment in the NICU
Blood Sugar Monitoring and Treatment in the NICU
Blood sugar is the amount of sugar in the blood. The body needs sugar to function. Blood sugar must stay within a certain range for the body to be healthy. A hormone (body chemical) called insulin helps the body maintain a normal blood sugar level. In many newborns, blood sugar is either too high or too low. So, doctors will carefully watch your baby's blood sugar level during his or her stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). If your baby's blood sugar is too high or too low, treatment will bring it back under control.
Why Is My Baby's Blood Sugar Abnormal?
Low blood sugar is common in many babies right after birth, as the baby's body gets used to regulating its blood sugar level without help from the mother's body.
High blood sugar can be caused by illness or stress. It's also common in preemies born very early, because their pancreas (organ that makes insulin) is not fully developed.
How Blood Sugar Is Monitored
A health care provider uses a lancet (tiny blade) to take a drop of blood from your baby's foot. The blood is put on a small test strip. This measures the sugar in the drop of blood.
|A lancet is used to draw a drop of blood from the baby's foot.
How Blood Sugar Problems Are Treated
If blood sugar is too low, you may feed your baby more often. The natural sugar in your breast milk or formula helps raise blood sugar level. A health care provider may also give your baby supplemental glucose (sugar) through an IV (intravenous) line.
If blood sugar is too high, a health care provider may give your baby insulin. This helps the body use up more of the sugar in the blood. If the baby is being fed through an IV, a health care provider may also lower the amount of glucose in the IV fluid. However, babies need some sugar to grow and develop appropriately, so they cannot have all the glucose removed from their feeds.
Does My Baby Have Diabetes?
In adults, blood sugar problems are often due to diabetes. If a mother has diabetes, her baby is more likely to have temporary low blood sugar at birth. The problem continues until the baby's pancreas adjusts to the baby's normal blood sugar level. But the blood sugar problems your baby has does NOT mean your baby has diabetes. If your baby has low or high blood sugar as a newborn, it does not mean that your baby is likely to grow up to have diabetes, either.

If you really want to strain, straining with cheesecloth leaves as much of the grease behind as possible while picking up the bacon particles. Paper towels over your jar/receptacle of choice will work, but will soak up a good amount of the grease.
I usually bake my bacon and pour off the grease to cook with. I think Mark has an article about how long bacon grease is safe for, but honestly, I keep it for months in the fridge sometimes. I always had more than enough when I was cooking bacon weekly. I don't have it as often now (too costly).
Depression Lies
Just pour it out into a ramekin and do your eggs in the greased pan that remains. As you collect more and more fat in your ramekin you can use that to fry things off in or "wet up" veggies after steaming.
Don't bother straining - just eat it all. If you were bothered, you can pour into a ramekin, fridge 'til solid, scrape off the clean top and discard the settled muck underneath.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama - The man who led Huntsville police on a car chase that ended in a multi-car crash on Interstate 565 this morning will be charged with DUI as soon as he is released from the hospital, a police spokesman said.
Francisco Casique, no age given, will be charged with felony attempting to flee or elude police, driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident, said spokesman Harry Hobbs.
Casique was taken to Huntsville Hospital by HEMSI with non-life-threatening injuries. A hospital spokeswoman said she had no information on a patient with that name.
The drivers of two of the three other cars that were struck in the chase were also transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, Hobbs said. Their names have not been released.
The chase began at 11:12 a.m. when a caller advised Huntsville Police the driver of a red Ford SUV traveling west on I-565 was driving recklessly.
"According to the complainant, the offender had pulled up beside him, pointed a gun at him, and was all over the road," Hobbs said.
Within three minutes, a police unit spotted the SUV and attempted to pull it over but the driver refused to stop. When the driver turned off I-565 onto Madison Boulevard, a Madison Police unit joined the chase.
Near Old Madison Pike, Casique's SUV struck a Nissan Maxima but no one was injured, Hobbs said.
Casique continued east on I-565.
"As the offender approached the Bob Wallace Avenue overpass, we were able to deploy Stop Sticks, which the offender struck," Hobbs said.
When Casique's SUV hit the Stop Sticks, he veered into a gray Honda Accord, whose driver was later transported by POV to Huntsville Hospital. Casique then struck a minivan and that driver was transported to Crestwood Hospital by HEMSI.
Hobbs said debris from the crash was widespread, leading officers to close I-565 eastbound until the scene could be cleared.
A portion of the interstate was closed for about three hours.
