Biohazardous Waste
Generators of biohazards waste are required to comply with rules and regulations promulgated by federal, state and local regulatory agencies. The Michigan Medical Waste Regulatory Act regulates the generation, storage, treatment, and disposal of medical waste and administers the Medical Waste Regulatory Program covering medical waste producing facilities. The Department of Transportation requires compliance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations during transportation of regulated medical waste and the Michigan Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth regulates occupational exposure to blood and other potentially infectious material and waste disposal.
The safety guidelines, regulations and procedures presented are intended to help generators comply with governmental rules and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. Strict compliance with these regulations ensures the waste is managed, transported, and disposed of safely and properly while reducing potential liability to the University.
All containers of biohazardous waste must have a "Biohazard Label" attached. For containers that are not pre-labeled, biohazard labels can be ordered through HMM at 763-4568. When waste accumulation begins the accumulation start date must be written on the label. The accumulation start date is the date the waste is first generated. All biohazardous waste must be treated or sent for disposal through HMM within 60 days. The following links provide additional information on proper biohazardous waste management practices.

Amazon has put its third-party sellers on notice that they are no longer to list products carrying the Gillette brand name in their stores on the marketplace.
This directive, issued late last year, kindled considerable uncertainty among sellers. Amazon's discussion boards became a forum for that confusion, as several posters wondered if they were learning of a new rule issued from the company itself, regarding its marketplace, or if they were being subjected to an edict from the supplier, in this case Gillette, and its parent company, Procter and Gamble.
Kristen Gugliotta, a spokeswoman for Procter and Gamble, cleared the air about the origin of the decision, but left its reasoning a mystery.
"This was a decision made by Amazon," Gugliotta told Ecommerce Bytes. "Thus we cannot comment on the rationale."
Amazon was not much inclined to speak to the rationale for the decision, either. After several messages left with Amazon communications staffers, spokesman Ty Rogers offered, "I'm afraid I don't have anything to share."
This leaves Amazon's motives for its policy on sales of Gillette products - or other brands, such as Oral B, for that matter - a matter of speculation, and there was no shortage of theories on the retailer's discussion boards. Some thought it seemed plausible that the new policy could be an anti-counterfeiting measure, particularly given the product line in question.
"Gillette products, especially razor blades, have always been a huge target for knockoffs - high price point, easy to fake," explained Chris Green, director of FBA Power, a suite of tools geared for sellers using the Fulfillment by Amazon service.
But Green acknowledged that the matter of liability for knock-offs remains an unsettled question. Indeed, as eBay has discovered, the question of responsibility for policing an online marketplace is an evolving area of the law, one that has seen various interpretations by different judges.
But Procter and Gamble's assertion that the decision to pull third-party listings of Gillette products was entirely Amazon's might seem to argue against intellectual property concerns.
Some commenters took for granted that Amazon would seek to squeeze out competitors, that it is in an essential friction with its third-party merchants over price, placement and other factors.
But that often repeated narrative sets up a false tension pair, according to Eric Best, CEO of the ecommerce marketing and services firm Mercent.
"What's sometimes lost in that comparison is the benefits that Amazon sees from the third-party seller program," Best said, noting that Amazon rakes a commission from each marketplace sale and monetizes the visits that customers make to its pages. "Those are important factors for Amazon that weigh in favor of the third-party seller program over time."
Best pointed to Amazon's most recent quarterly earnings report, when the firm topped analysts' expectations in revenue from its marketplace segment.
As for efforts to curtail third-party sales, "I believe it sort of runs contrary to the trend we're seeing now," he said. "As a percentage of Amazon's overall retail business third-party sales are growing and have been growing over a period of time."
So if Amazon has a growing business on its hands, why would it want to enact policies that would limit those transactions?
It depends on how you view the balance sheet, Best argued. Though he firmly believes that Amazon's long-term interests are aligned with growing the marketplace business, the contrarian view that prizes the owned-and-operated retail segment would see Amazon in competition with its third-party sellers, giving it every incentive to maximize its scale with an A-list supplier like Procter and Gamble.
"The counterpoint is if you're measuring Amazon's success purely on the basis of the retail business and the retail metrics, the more they can buy from specific suppliers, in general the more negotiating leverage and buying power they're going to have in their relationship," Best said.
In any case, sellers' recourse against the policies of marketplaces and suppliers, such as minimum advertised pricing provisions, is hardly a clear-cut matter in the eyes of the law. And Amazon already has an established policy of restricting certain items from third-party sellers, such as Kindles and Kindle accessories.
"Some items Amazon will not let third-party sellers sell at all and it may be because they want to control the entire customer experience for a particular product," Green said. "Since it's their sandbox, there is nothing that a seller can do about it."

Complete HACKING information
We see a millions of people going to different forums and websites and asking "how do i hack an email?", "Can you hack blah for me?". So thought to create a tutorial which will give you the basic idea about what the heck is a "HACK", and how to DEFEND YOUR SELF AGAINST HACKERS.
As i have seen controversies in the past, here is the disclaimer.
I or the staff of Go4expert.com's does not take any responsibility if you use this tutorial in unethical way. This is written to help you to beware of whats going around, and save your self by not being hacked!
Hacking started way too far when the windowsd 98 was designed. Hacking is basically finding out the loop holes and trying leak some information out of it, which may lead you to get some critical information like passwords, credit card details. Sometimes hacking is done just because of the personal offesnses.
Things to remember
I will suggest you, KEEP READING ARTICLES AND TUTORIALS FROM GOOD SITES. THATS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN LEARN.
Getting back to the main point, I am going to discuss some of the ways of hacking in brief. Hacking is basically bifurcated in 2 major parts.
1. Email or the user information
2. Web based hacking.
Email or user information:
These days the most commonly used and famous way of hacking user information like Emails, Passwords, Credit card details are as follow:
a. Phishing
b. Brute Forcing
c. Keylogging
d. Trojans
a. Phishing:
Phishing is basically a massive attack. What a hacker does is, they created an absoulutely look alike page of some website like yahoo or gmail. They upload it to their own server. And give the link to any n00b user. When they open it, they think that they are on the yahoo or gmail page, they put in their username and password, click on submit and WHOA! your information has been submitted. This is widely used by new people trying to entering into ahcking world.b. Brute Forcing
Brute forcer is basically a program which could be called as a "cracker". In brute focer you put the username you want to hack, and as a password you put a notepad file which has almost all of the existing english words in it. So what it does is, it will try each and every word from that file and see if anything matches. You might have noticed some topics like "huge pass list" on different forums, they are nothing but the password list to put into your bruteforcer.!c. Keylogging
Keylogger helps you to create a little filed which is known as "server". You gotta send your server to the victim. he has to click on it and then YOUR DONE! this is what happens.d. Trojans:
Trojans are like father of keyloggers. Trojan sends you the keylogs just as keyloggers, on top of that, it lets you take the control of victim's computer. Edit / delete/ upload / download files from or to their computer. Some more funny features like it will make their keyboard go mad, it may kep on ejecting and re-inserting the cd ROM. Much more..
Web Hacking:
I will discuss some most commonly used web hacking techniques which helps hackers to hack any website. This will help you to SAVE YOUR SITE!
1. SQL Injection
3. Shells
5. There are some more but they are TOOO big to be discussed in here.
1. SQL Injection:
Most of the websites these days are connected to an SQL Database. Which helps them to store usernames and passwords [encrypted] when a guest registers to their website. SQL database processes a querie everytime a user logs in. It goes to the database, validates the password, if its correct then it logs in the user and if its not then it gives an error.2. XSS:
XSS is another nice way to ahck some website. Suppose if some website/ forum is allowing HTML in the psot or articles, then a hacker can post a malicious script into the content. So whenever a user opens up the page, the cookies would be sent to the hacker. So he can login as that user and f*ck the website up.3. Shells:
Shell is a malicious .php script. What you have to do is, find a palce in any website where you can upload any file like avatars, recepie, your tricks, your feedbacks. And you try to upload your shell files from there. And if its uploaded then WHOA!you open it from the URL bar and u can see the entire "FTP" account of that webhosting. YOu can rename/edit / upload/download anything u want including the index page.4. RFI:
RFI is a good way to deface a website. It is used with shell. Suppose you have uploaded your shell on:ENJOY!
eXCLUSIVELY BY ME!
Re: Complete HACKING information

Re: Complete HACKING information
any one have knwoladge how to get the hacking site.
Re: Complete HACKING information
wow, thanks for the information man! well apriciated.
Re: Complete HACKING information
Re: Complete HACKING information
for bruteforcer can you do little more different like if u need to check a password for 8 digites and choose if the password is letters only or alpha-numeric
so that the program generates his own list without putting a list on a notepad
Re: Complete HACKING information
yea there is a php file for that, i dont have it right now, coz i m in the office, will post it as soon as i reach at home

clear cut idea about hacking.worth read post
Re: Complete HACKING information
im interested in grey hat hacking. i hav some really creative ideas but lack the recources to impliment them! ive watched every youtube tut on the subject & tried pretty much all above mentioned methods. ie sql, java inj, keyloggers & progs like poisen ivy & bi frost. i tried tamperdata. i registerd on hackthissite & completed variouse missions. i also tried kane & able to crack md5 hashes. none of these methods hav so far worked! i need to find a way to gain access to a website as admin!! its not that im lazy & cant be bothered to find out info. its just that none of the info ive been given is @all usefull. where can i find specific info on this subject that is effective ennough to actually be implimented in the real world?! ive wasted ennough time on this & ive been getting nowhere!!!!!!!!!! i need tutorials that work from scratch & go into specifics in a user friendly format that works step by step rather than using broad strokes. id rather find the information i was given was extremelyover simplified or even patronising as @ leat this reduces margin for error signifficantly. thx.
Re: Complete HACKING information
hmm looks like you have gone tired too of the waste given on net as if its the most coolest way to hack...good...
I guess only two poeple who can really help you out, hex0010 and indiansword...as they are quite good at all this...
if you have anything specifc you are looking for, you can ask them for it i am sure they'll give you some idea how to go about it...
Re: Complete HACKING information
this post is directed to either the great hex0010 or indiansword... or indeed anybody with any actual working knowledge of the specific procedures im going to mention here. first off a little more about me (& why it is important i have access to this information). i am sombody with very little experiance of hacking. infact im pretty crappy @ it but i am however a great conceptual artist. i have skills in grafiti bombing, im also a particularly dope dj & music producer so with the correct tools @ my disposal i would produce a standard of work that would be highly creative & origeonal. i dont just want to write "u got hacked" across sombodys page.... um no. what i ultimately do is mimic the design of the whole site but screw with it in a way that provokes thought & has genuine style. thus i dont want to just pick random websites really. id like to exploit sites belonging to organisations that exploit people! :) now on to what i need....
i need a way into a website that gives me as much control as possible over content (ie the ability to post mp3 players & alter the background art or maybe even post a video or 2). i also need if poss to be able to lock the existing admin out of thier own site? the other thing i need is a software that allows me to gather information & gain control of a remotely operated pc? again i want to make the "experiance" for the victim as surreal & annoying as possible. so as much scope for creativity as possible would be apreciated! now bear in mind ive come accross software that claims to do this but i think 1 of the main problems i faced was that the tutorials were incomprehensive difficult to follow. wot i need is ennough information to ensure i can physiccally get it to work? thx.
Re: Complete HACKING information
After reading it, i understand that u have creativity. But that isnt all that u r supposed to have.
1.First of all, Saying "i want to hack a site", doesnt give more information about it. You need to be more specific in terms of the type of the website, i.e. if its a forum,blog, customer made script, normal html etc etc...
2. You asked "if i can kick out the admin from his own website". It is possible in terms of getting administrator previlages but that wudn't be permenent. Because admin can anytime login to his cpanel and remove the existing file, use the same database and restart the website.
3. If we get access to cpanel and take it over... then he can contact hosting provider and get access back anytime.
So u can takeover the website... but it also depends on the smartness of the actual admin... there is also a possibilty that he may try to track u back . If the web hosting provider is smart then wireshark can easily track u down and then u know govt.s are just waiting for someone to get caught to set an example.
So my advise: if u dont know stuffs, better not try things in live enviroment. Install WAMP server on ur computer and try the things u know.

French voters rejected President Nicolas Sarkozy and elected Francois Holland, the nation's first Socialist president in 17 years.
The election is seen as a referendum on Sarkozy and his policies aimed at controlling his country's debt crisis and preventing a European economic meltdown.
The impact is already being felt across the globe. Economists fear the election could rock not only the struggling European economy, but the U.S. stock market as well.
"It could mean trouble. It could mean some instability. It could mean uncertainty in the markets," French journalist Benedicte Paviot said.
CBN News spoke wih French economist Emmanuel Martin more about the situation in France. Click play for his reaction to the election and its impact on the eurozone debt crisis.
Sarkozy addressed the French people shortly after his defeat.
"I've tried to do my best to protect the French people from the unprecedented crisis that has shaken the world."
The French economy now rests on the shoulders of socialist Francois Hollande. His election threatens to undermine the French-German economic alliance that has propped up the struggling Euro-zone.
Hollande said France and Europe do not need to make big cuts. He instead wants to raise taxes and emphasize growth.
Asian stock markets dropped today and European and American markets are nervous.
"The last thing he needs is a situation where he hasn't even taken office yet and all of a sudden the markets are voting "No," on Francois Hollande and his presidency by running up interest rates, by speculating against the euro and speculating against France," said Chris Dickey, the Paris Bureau Chief for Newsweek and the Daily Beast.
Adding to the economic uncertainty across Europe is Monday's parliamentary vote in Greece. Greek voters chose two parties that want to change the nation's international bailout terms or even overturn its rescue deal.
The Greek stock market plunged 7.7 percent as the early results began coming in.
Markets around the world are reeling today as investors unload stocks and other assets that are now seen as too risky after the two weekend elections.

Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station deputies are looking for four men who robbed a gas station on Lyons Avenue Sunday night, a sheriff's official said.
The men, armed with rifles and a brick, stole $600 from the American Gas Station in the 24000 block of
Lyons Avenue at about 11 p.m. Sunday, Sgt. Ron Price said.
The suspects used more than one rifle in the robbery, but the exact number of weapons used in the crime is unclear, Price said. Deputies are working with a vague description of the suspects, he said.
The suspects were described as four male Hispanics, Price said.
Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call the Sheriff's Station at (661) 255-1121.

Old 100
As these pages go to print, I notice that we have reached issue 147. The number 147 might not seem particularly noteworthy to the rest of the world, but I noticed it. You see, the first issue with my picture on page 3 was issue 48, and if you count by ones from the beginning of the issue 48 cycle to the end of the issue 147 cycle, you get to 100 issues. This number 100 is always good for a milestone moment in our base 10 universe. Celebrating a numeral is not so important on its own, but having these reasons to look back can provide some context for looking ahead into the future – or looking around at the present.
So many things were different back in the first year I wrote this column. The last version of the old Red Hat Linux (Red Hat 9) was just ending, giving way to a new Red Hat-inspired community distro known as "Fedora Core." A few for-profit desktop systems were trying to nail down the role of Linux for nongeeks, including Xandros and Lindows (later renamed Linspire), and they actually carried a price tag of around US$ 35 dollars before getting washed away by the all-free Ubuntu. SUSE Linux came in a light green shrink-wrapped box. Debian was a really big deal – we even had a column on Debian, and we provided close coverage of the Debian elections. (Actually, Debian is still a big deal; people just don't talk about it as much as they used to.) Solaris was going open source; the kernel developers lost access to the BitKeeper distributed version control system and started building their own open source tool, which they called Git.

FAU's Pine Jog Environmental Education Center Receives Funding to Support Quality Afterschool Programming
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (April 8, 2013) – Florida Atlantic University's Pine Jog Environmental Education Center recently received a $103,000 contract from Prime Time Palm Beach County, Inc. for afterschool programs. Funds will be used to deliver hands-on learning experiences and for students to attend residential summer camp in Palm Beach County.
"With funding from Prime Time, children participating in afterschool learning programs have an opportunity to improve their environmental literacy and experience Florida's natural environment in an outdoor camp setting," said Ray Coleman, Pine Jog's executive director. "Without this assistance, children would most likely not receive this life changing opportunity."
Prime Time's funding will enable Pine Jog to offer environmental education lessons at 15 afterschool centers throughout Palm Beach County. Through engaging lessons, students will learn that biodiversity is critical to our planet and its survival. The unit will end with a celebration of biodiversity and a call to action to protect it. These students then will be invited to attend residential summer camp at Pine Jog's Everglades Youth Conservation Camp. As a courtesy of Prime Time, this program is offered at no expense to the afterschool centers or children's families.
Prime Time Palm Beach County is a nonprofit intermediary organization that serves afterschool programs and practitioners. The organization, formed in 2000, is dedicated to ensuring that afterschool programs are of the highest quality so as to keep youth engaged in learning, and on track for academic success and healthy social development.Pine Jog Environmental Education Center is a unit within FAU's College of Education. Since 1960, Pine Jog has been fulfilling its mission of developing, modeling, and providing educational services and programs which foster awareness and appreciation of the natural world, promote understanding of environmental concepts and instill a sense of stewardship.
For information, contact the Pine Jog Environmental Education Center at 561-686-6600 or visit www.pinejog.fau.edu .

Osteoarthritis: Non-invasive Treatment Options
Osteoarthritis: Noninvasive Treatment Options
These treatments may help relieve pain and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis. Always look for a licensed or accredited therapist. And keep in mind that these treatments may affect other treatment you are getting. Always tell every healthcare provider you see about each kind of treatment you are using.
Acupuncture and Acupressure
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese treatment. It uses small needles. They are placed into the skin in certain areas on the body. Acupressure is similar. But it uses pressure instead of needles. They both may help release the body's own painkillers.
Therapeutic massage may help you and your muscles relax. It may also improve blood flow. Massage can help joints stay more flexible. Look for a certified massage therapist. Many are trained to treat sore muscles that happen due to joint pain and stiffness.
Some people think that dietary supplements may help with arthritis pain. But be careful. Herbs, vitamins, and other supplements may affect other drugs you are taking. Always ask your doctor or pharmacist before trying a supplement.
Certain things the body does are automatic. This includes rate of breathing and heartbeat. Biofeedback is a way of learning to control some of these things. It may help to lower stress and cope with pain.

WHY...Because MFS perform very well lately and will continue to grow faster than industry...why....?? MFS is in Asia....and Asia is the next BIG THING....Read TORONTO, Oct 23 (Reuters) - Canadian insurer Sun Life Financial Inc. (SLF.TO: Quote, Profile, Research) (SLF.N: Quote, Profile, Research) said on Monday it will not sell its Boston-based fund manager, MFS Investment Management.Following a strategic review of its subsidiary, the company said it will continue to own and invest in it. In September, Sun Life had hired bankers to advise on alternatives for MFS."Sun Life remains committed to the asset management business in the U.S. and MFS is a valuable strategic asset," Chief Executive Donald Stewart said in a statement.Sun Life's had net income from MFS of $52 million in the third quarter, while assets under MFS' management were worth $175 billion.Shares of Sun Life, Canada's second largest life insurer, closed at C$45.85 on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Friday. The stock had jumped about 2 percent on Sept. 18, when the company announced it would review its options on MFS.
The reason they are keeping MFS is because no one wants to buy it for the price they want to sell it. Scandals and under-performing growth mutual funds are not an attractive selling point. To take MFS off the market is in effect admitting defeat. It's like putting your house on the market and not getting the price you wanted so you take it off. Now when you go to re-sell it again, all the other buyers know you couldn't convert it before and you are now in a stategically weaker position trying to sell.

Protect your wrists while you're learning the ropes.
Snowboarding is one of mankind's top seven creations of all time, but the learning curve can be rough, especially on your wrists. Keep them protected with the Dakine Nova Wristguard Glove. The moderate 210 grams of insulation keeps you hands warm when the temperature drops, and they'll stay dry thanks to the waterproof DK Dry insert. There's a hard-wearing leather palm, which holds up to boards, tow ropes, and anything else you'd be grabbing onto at the mountain. However, the removable, integrated wrist guards are the key to these gloves. They support both the palm and the top of your hand, and the glove straps hold the guard in place to keep you protected. Snowboarding is the best, and it's way more fun when you can avoid a trip to the ER.

Good Design
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Easy to use
Ok product, but major flaw
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Great gloves. Warm and do a great job of comfortably and easily protecting your wrist well.
2 problems here:
1. this ones a biggie. If you put a hard plastic piece with edges underneath a layer of fabric, and then fall repeatedly on that, the edge of the plastic will tear through the fabric. This was obvious to me the moment I took these out of the box and completely fail to see how the people at dakine expect these to last at all. My solution will be black shoe goo over the area asap, as after 3 days on the hill the wear is VERY evident. I imagine these would be torn to shreds within 10 days at this rate.
2. The cuff adjustment requires two hands. This is a glove. Seriously? my last burton gloves had a nice clever and easy cuff adjustment that could be operated with one hand. for these, I have to use my teeth. Seriously dakine, is this your first time making gloves?
Great Protection
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Pros: Multi-function, protects both top and bottom of your wrist, and fairly warm.
Cons: Stitching opened up the first time I put them on.
Regardless of the stitching opening up a bit, I wore it while boarding and it stayed warm throughout and had great protection on my wrists through numerous falls (first time snowboarding). The strap is vital in keeping the guards close to your wrists to protect it properly, so the width of the strap is perfect!
The only thing I found a bit irritating was that the fabric inside is not attached onto the exterior portion of the glove so if there's any moisture inside, it is awfully hard to take the glove off without pulling out inner fabric.

Toddler-Size Soft Seating
(click on thumbnail to see larger)With the exception of activity tables and chairs, I've never been a huge fan of buying child-size furniture. It certainly doesn't seem practical for my own small home where we struggle just to make room for the essentials. Besides, if I can walk ten miles to school barefoot in the snow, can't my toddler son endure sitting in an adult-sized chair? But lately I've been reconsidering. In our small living room we have a couch and one arm chair - which lately my son has completely co-opted. He insists on sitting there and cries and cries if someone else dares take his spot. While not wanting to give in to his demands, I have wondered if getting him his own chair wouldn't only delight him, but also keep our chair cleaner (not to mention free for use). So I wanted to see what my options were for small, modern, comfortable chairs. Here are the results of my research with a handful of options at different price points:
Budget: • Poang armchair ($29.99 by Ikea) • Little Reader ($69.99 by P'kolino) • My First Hybrid Chair ($79 at Pottery Barn Kids) • The Nod Chair ($99) • Cubino Chair ($109 by Monte Design)
Mid-Range: • Anywhere Recycled Beanbag ($129 at Pottery Barn Kids) • Fatboy Junior ($199 at Design Public) • Baby Maggie ($199 at Crypton) • Mini Fashion Bean Bag ($199 by Sitting Bull) • Ava Toddler Chair ($299-399 by Jennifer DeLonge)
Lux: • Parker Child Chair ($399-499 by Jennifer DeLonge) • mini-e ($899 at Little Nest) • Junior Templeton (starting at $995 by Jonathan Adler) • Child's Womb Chair ($2,831 by Knoll Kids, but free shipping!) I'd love to know what you think - what attractive, toddler-size chairs have I missed? Have you bought a small chair for you kid and regretted it? Loved it? I'll let you know what I decide and will read your comments with interest!

HUNTINGDON - Huntingdon County's chief clerk was rescued Thursday morning by a volunteer firefighter from her burning home at 1308 Warm Springs Ave.
Firefighter David Fortson climbed a ladder and rescued Michelle Cerrett from a second-floor bedroom after the blaze broke out about 12:30 a.m., Chief Jim Grace of the Huntingdon Regional Fire and Rescue Department said.
Grace called the rescue a cooperative effort among borough police, the ambulance crew and firefighters.

Fortson suffered minor injuries and was taken to J.C. Blair Memorial Hospital, which is across the street from Cerett's home, where he was treated.
Cerrett was taken to J.C. Blair for treatment and then taken to a hospital in Pittsburgh where she underwent additional treatment and was released, Grace said.
The cause of the fire is being investigated by Fire Marshal and Police Chief Rufus Brenneman but it is not considered suspicious in nature. It is believed the fire started on the first floor of the home, Grace said.
The home was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived on the scene, Grace said.
Cerrett's son Robert was not at home when the fire broke out.
Cerrett had insurance and she and her son are staying with family members in the Huntingdon area, Grace said.
Firefighters remained on the scene for about four hours. American Red Cross volunteers also assisted at the scene.

See her as she flies
Golden sails across the skies
Close enough to touch
But careful if you try
Though she looks as warm as gold
The moon's a harsh mistress
The moon can be so cold
Once the sun did shine
And Lord it felt so fine
The moon, the phantom roads
Through the mountains and the pines
And then the darkness fell
And the moon's a harsh mistress
It's hard to love her well
I fell out of her eyes
And I fell out of her heart
I fell down on my face
Yes I did
And I tripped and I missed my star
Then I fell and fell alone
And the moon's a harsh mistress
And the sky's made of stone
The moon's a harsh mistress
She's hard to call your own

The Department of Defense should cut 58,000 civilian employees - and save about $5 billion in the process - by 2015 as part of efforts to deal with sequestration's on-going cuts, a high-level panel that includes former top military personnel determined.
The panel - which includes a former Air Force chief, a former Navy chief and two former vice chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff - recommended $50 billion in cuts to help the Pentagon adjust to the second year of sequestration. The across-the-board cuts are expected to take $52 billion from Pentagon coffers next year and cause disruption to training, operations, maintenance and personnel.
The 17-member panel, writing on behalf of the Washington, D.C-based Stimson Center think tank, said targeted cuts would allow the Pentagon to survive the Congress-mandated reductions without "risking national security."
"A more prudent course would be to act now to prevent the disruptive effect of sequestration, along with reshaping the defense budget on the basis of a strategy that is designed to protect America's national security interests in the years ahead," panelists wrote.
The panel made 27 different recommendations. The biggest chunk of savings - about $22 billion - would come from reductions to personnel, particularly headquarter staffing and civilian workers. The panel recommends trimming 20 percent from headquarter staff- a move that's already under way - as well as the 58,000 reduction in civilian personnel.
DOD's contractor workforce should be pared down, too. The first step should be identifying the number of contractors - 2011's inventory showed about 710,000 - then reduce that number by at least 20 percent. The panel doesn't put a dollar figure on these savings as it said there's not an accurate count of existing contractors, a fact that's long been a point of contention in Congress.
Force cuts part of savings
Another $21.4 billion would come from a restructuring and reducing the force.
"These would maintain robust space, air, naval and special operations forces and expand investment in cyber capabilities, but reduce active forces best suited for protracted wars," panelists said, adding those types of conflicts should be avoided.
The biggest personnel drop is recommended for the Army, though panelists said other savings should prevent it from dropping to 380,000 soldiers as Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel said could happen under sequestration. Instead, panelists recommend dropping the number to 450,000, a reduction of about a third from current levels. The cuts to the Army would save about $11.9 billion a year, according to the report.
Panelists also recommend cutting Marine end-strength to 160,000 from its current planned number of 182,100 a move away from active duty Air Force to the Reserve component and the increased use of unmanned aerial vehicles.
The panelists concede the reforms are not new and face "fierce bureaucratic and political obstacles," before they could be implemented. However, they added the cuts could be made while protecting U.S. interests.
"By implementing all these changes, not only could the required reduction be met, but the defense budget could be put on a healthy path," they wrote.

Omega-3 fatty acids are considered a boon to the heart. They may provide a buffer against dementia, too.
In the wake of studies in the United States and Europe, an Oregon Health & Science University neurologist is leading a study on whether these fatty acids, found in fish, can slow Alzheimer's disease.
Dr. Joseph Quinn, an investigator at OHSU's Layton Aging & Alzheimer's Disease Center, and colleagues around the country are looking at one omega-3 fatty acid in particular, docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, in a randomized, double-blind study in which participants will receive either DHA or a placebo.
The 18-month trial, supported by the National Institute on Aging, will take place at 52 sites across the United States. Researchers need 400 participants age 50 and older with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease.
Using standard tests, scientists will evaluate whether taking the supplement over many months slows their cognitive and functional decline.
"Study volunteers will be critical to helping us find out if DHA can make an impact on the disease process," Quinn said.
To participate, contact Briana Studer at 503 494-9399, the NIA's Alzheimer's Disease Education and Referral Center at 800-438-4380 or e-mail email@example.com.

Re: Is aiki a clash of forces?
I believe that making swords actually requires hammers and lots of hammering -- and so:
Budd Yuhasz
So, if seeing is believing . . does that mean it has to be felt, too?
What are you feeling ? More importantly,
are you feeling it.
The mystery that drives the degreed physics and engineering types nuts with head-shaking and cranium scratching maneuvers is that -- if my premise is correct -- there is a reflexive circuit involved,
there is a phase lag between action, perception and counter-control input in EVERYTHING involved in these issues.
I happen to be particularly aware of the problems of using voluntary circuitry for physical control because I flew aircraft. Like riding a bicycle -- you cannot use voluntary motor responses to maintain stability -- they are WAAAY too slow -- you need a certain form of reflexive responses -- from much repetitions and refinement of control errors -- but these are polysynaptic reflexes -- just barely within conscious trainability with "muscle memory". That's one level of the problem -- but most people get that -- its like learning to ride a bike -- different from learning to walk -- but not
I summarized the temporal lag aspect in another thread:
... for a trained person [using an polysynaptic reflex] -- the order of event, action and perception is:
Stimulus = 0
Polysynaptic reflex = 75ms
Awareness of stimulus = 75ms
Awareness of reflex = 150ms
reflex, though, is something else (two nerves, one sensory, one motor, one synapse, ...in the land of Mordor , where... never mind...) . These are the tendon reflexes and the stretch reflexes -- which respectively contract or relax a muscle group in response to possibly structurally dangerous loads.
A monosynaptic latency is on the order of 20-45 ms -- call it 30 ms =0.03s, twice as fast as, or even better, as the visual or pain flinch reflexes. Your conscious awareness latency is more on the order of the visual flinch awareness, (75 ms).
Stimulus = 0
Monosynaptic reflex = 30ms [IN]
[No real awareness of structural stress stimulus]
Awareness of reflex = 75ms
Recovery phase of reflex = 50 -100 ms [YO]
Voluntary reaction to reflex 175 ms
This is the sequence that is disturbing to the conscious mind -- because we do not -- without training -- consciously sense or recognize the structural stimulus that causes the reflex. Or we feel it but we do not know at all how to interpret it. It is occurring at a level way below the conscious mind.
Reflex stuffs -- here
Some engineers are used to temporal phase lag control systems. Most physicists and most engineers outside of rotary wing aviation have not dealt with bodily operated control systems that use both spatial AND temporal phase lag controls. But in our case there is not only a temporal phase lag, but, because this is a complex harmonic system -- there is a spatial phase lag too.
I learned the significance of
phase lag control
in bodily operated systems because
I flew rotary wing aircraft
. Sikorsky himself did not anticipate spatial phase lag -- and it took a good bit of puzzling out even for him -- He basically tried to ignore it with a very different control system in the first operating prototype helo, the VS-300.
The aeromechanical problems involved in rotor phase lag are not directly applicable -- but they sensitize you to this class of problem. In most rotary wing craft -- if the controls were spatially in phase with the rotors then the controls would be paradoxical ("non-sourced"). IOW putting the stick forward = tilt the rotor left; left = back; back =left; right =forward. (Reverse the above if you like Aerospatiale -- they go the other way.
This is a function of the resonance characteristics of a multiple pendulum oscillating system -- not just gyroscopic moments because it spins -- the hinge or teeter SHOULD allow the isolation of gyroscopic precession to the rotor alone -- but the hinge or teeter at the rotor hub creates a resonant connection with the second pendulum of the fuselage -- the resulting moments are a function of the action
at the resonant center of both rotations
A multiple pendulum is a complex harmonic oscillator and can exhibit resonance (coupled 90 degree phase differences). Coupled oscillators that are 90 degrees out of phase (
) -- make pretty figures called Lissajous curves -- which just so happen to follow
the same class of dual spiral shape and mathematical behavior as torsional shear stress
Putting all this together --
1) The severe temporal phase lag between structural reflex response and perception requires a feed-forward control.
2) The most damaging structural stresses are torsional
3) Unmodulated reflexive action limb behavior is highly pendular in action
4) Tonic structural stability is dynamic and oscillatory;
5) Refelxive action follows patterns dictated by the most immediate reduction of torsional shear stress
6) The patterns of shear stress and multiple pendulum action are mathematically and physically equivalent -- dual opposed spirals;
7) Feed-forward controls for this system must therefore follow the two dominant patterns involved in the reflex activity:
------ a) pendular spiral action characteristic of resonant multiple pendulums; and/or
------ b) the higher frequency damped stability tonic (~5 or ~10 Hz)
8) Structural reflexes can be potentiated by certain counter-damping stresses (e.g. --
Jendrassik maneuver
9) Feed forward control patterns can be habituated in voluntary responses that "feed-in" to reflexive action that occurs involuntarily
10 Aiki Taiso (chinkon kishin) are designed to train, respectively the feed forward patterns of both (7a) the "demon snake" and (7b) the "spirit of bees"
11) Koyku tanden ho paired exercise (and Endo's modified
exercsie)is designed to prompt, potentiate and exploit reflexive structural stresses and cues in both parties and to develop feed-forward voluntary responses that play upon the involuntary reflexive activity (and the tonic damping changes) thus prompted in the opponent and potentiated in oneself.
12) The IS/IP are methods related to (11) but which particularly work on the potentiating aspects of this form of tonic action in the body (7b), and which seem to depend primarily upon manipulating the tonic damping changes with counter-potentiating stresses responding to the applied stresses, rather than or in preference to (7a) feed-forward followups to reflexive mechanical responses to the applied stresses.

We are rapidly approaching the final week of the regular season. Several Big Ten and Pac-12 teams are still competing for division championships and a shot at the conference championship game played the following week. Winners have a shot at the Rose Bowl, the granddaddy of them all.
Stanford's upset of Oregon this past weekend changed things quite a bit. Three Pac-12 teams are in the hunt.
In the Big Ten, Ohio State beat Wisconsin this past weekend, but it doesn't matter. Three Big Ten teams are still in contention for the conference championship, and Wisconsin is one of them.
There are four critical games this weekend that will tell the tale, two in each conference. Division champs will play each other the following week for the conference championship, and a likely January date in Pasadena for the Rose Bowl.
What are the key matchups, and who will win?

Below are the available bulk discount rates for each individual item when you purchase a certain amount
Product Name: Antrodia Camphorata Mushroom
(Zhang Zhi)
Packing: 60 vegetarian capsules (500 mg each)
Product of Taiwan
Ingredients: Antrodia camphorata mycelium.
Actions: Supplementing qi, promoting circulation and removing stasis, detoxificating, supporting healthy immune system.
Indications: Commonly used as an anti-fatigue, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, itch relief, and liver protective supplement. As a dietary supplement, it is helpful for individuals in the treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, hepatitis, and many types of cancers including liver, lung, cervical, colon, and breast cancers and also leukemia and adenoma.*
Suggested usage: For adults, take 2-3 capsules each time with warm water or juice, 1-2 times a day, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Antrodia camphorata mushroom is highly valued as a medicinal mushroom in Taiwan (known as Zhang Zhi or Niu-Zhang Zhi), where it is commonly used as an anti-fatigue, and liver protective supplement by folk people in Taiwan. The wild mushroom grown inside the decayed wood of camphor tree. Due to its high medicinal value, the mushroom is very hard to find and extremely expensive. 100 grams of wild harvested can cost more than 1,000 US dollars in the market. However, it is relatively unknown outside of Taiwan and virtually unknown in the Western world. The government has aided and sponsored a wide research for finding the correct method to let it grow in a controlled environment for many years. Now the method has been found and the cultivated mushroom is available.
A great deal of work has been carried out on A. camphorata. The list of bioactivities of crude extracts is huge. Over 200 compounds consisting of terpenoids, benzenoids, lignans, benzoquinone derivatives, succinic and maleic derivatives, in addition to polysaccharides have been identified. The Terpenoids variety exceeds all of the Reishi mushrooms speci combined. It is hoped that Antrodia mycelium are now widely used in Asia one day can act as an efficient alternative phytotherapeutic agent or a synergizer for healthy immune system support.
Key Active Constituents:
Antrodia camphorata has a wide range of traditional indications, including alcohol intoxication, cancer, hypertension, fatigue, viral infection and liver disease.
Experts in Pharmacology and Medical Sciences have studied antioxidative and hepatoprotective effects of Antrodia camphorata extract, clinical application of Antrodia camphorata Carpophore Extract in cancer patients, asthma, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), cardiovascular disease.
In Traditional Taiwanese Medicine, Antrodia is commonly used as a anti-cancer, anti-itching, anti-allergy, and liver protective drug. Scientific research has also shown that the mushroom can be useful in the treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, hepatitis, and many types of cancers including liver, lung, cervical, colon, and breast cancers and also leukemia and adenoma.
Recent research from Taiwan has shown that Antrodia camphorata crude extract (ACCE) does indeed have strong activity against prostate, breast and bladder cancer. Kuan-Chou Chen et al. (2007) found that it inhibits prostate cancer cells and concluded that Antrodia camphorata due to its nontoxicity, might be used as a good adjuvant anticancer therapy for prostate cancers. Chiumg-Chi Peng et al. (2007) found that ACCE showed rather significant inhibitory effects on the growth and proliferation of invasive transitional bladder cell carcinomas cells. You-Cheng Hsu et al. (2006) reported that Antrodia exerts growth inhibition on highly-invasive estrogen-nonresponsive human breast cancer cells through apoptosis induction associated with COX-2 inhibition. Chen, Kuan-Chou et al. 2007. Unique Formosan mushroom Antrodia camphorata differentially inhibits androgen-responsive LNCaP and independent PC-3 prostate cancer cell.

Denny DeJesus, 20, of 713 Court St., Apt. 2, and Eduardo Trinidad, 23, of 545 Gifford St., were indicted on charges of second-degree murder, attempted first-degree robbery and second-degree criminal possession of a weapon in the Jan. 30 death of cab driver Timothy Gordon.
The third defendant's name has not been released because he has yet to be arrested.Gordon, 29, of 1005 Carbon St., was found to have suffered a gunshot wound after his overturned cab was discovered on Summit Avenue in the Strathmore neighborhood and he was rushed to the hospital.
DeJesus was charged with the crime. Police indicated then that he was one of three people who had been in the cab when it drove into the city from a location in Liverpool.
Trinidad was arrested last month on a weapons charge in the case as police continued their investigation into the fatal shooting.
Chief Assistant District Attorney Matthew Doran said DeJesus, Trinidad and a third person are accused of acting together to commit the attempted robbery that resulted in Gordon's death.
The murder charge accuses the defendants of acting together to cause the victim's death during an attempted robbery. The indictment does not specify who fired the shot that killed the victim.
Each of the defendants faces a maximum penalty of 25 years to life in prison if convicted.

I have heard a few people talk about a new pistol from Bersa but I have heard nothing. It is supposed to be smaller and lighter than the current Bersa. Has anyone seen pics? I need more info!

Right now, looks like the distributors can't keep up with the demand. We
talked with several distributors yesterday (3-11-05), and NONE had either
Bersa .380 model in stock. I sold our last two the same day (3-11), and
we are looking too buy 12 more! :cool: :) :D
March 12, 2005, 11:35 AM
Looks like a winner for someone who wants an inexpensive smaller .380. I bet it is going to be much more reliable and durable than the Kel-Tec P3AT which is hit or miss at best!
Does anyone know if they take the same mags? It looks shorter but maybe it is just the base plate that has been effected.
For those that don't require the extreme light weight and compact size of a KT sized gun, this should be a much better product. I can see this taking a small chunk of the market share away from the snubbie market as well. I am sure they will continue to sell the full sized versions for those that prefer them since that is the life blood of the company but this new addition should sell well. I can see Bersa owners adding this to the stable as well as bring in some new customers. I think the word is out on how good these little guns are and the days of being able to buy them dirt cheap on the used market may be long gone.
March 12, 2005, 10:50 PM
bersa is a great little pistol and Iam sure this on will be just as good. I already want one.
