• This study was performed to determine if gonorrheal infections in children aged 1 to 12 years were frequently associated with sexual contacts. In our study all 14 children who had gonorrhea and who were over 4 years of age and 35% (six) of the 17 children who had gonorrhea and who were between 1 and 4 years old were found to have had sexual contact with older males who were almost always in the extended family. Our study supports the concept that gonorrhea in children over 4 years old is almost always associated with sexual contact. In children between 1 and 4 years old, a history of sexual contact is more difficult to obtain but may be elicited in more than a third of the cases. Hospitalization of the children and identification of extended family members with gonorrhea, followed by additional interviews, were useful procedures in determining who had had sexual contact with the children.

I'm just feeling really ill. It could be a virus, as I haven't had the influenza since I was a small child and have forgotten what it's like. I'm one day late. I don't even have any spotting. I wish I could say I'm "hoping" for a pregnancy. I mean, strictly speaking, I am hoping that, but at the same time, I'm just not in the wishful thinking mode at the moment. My boobs feel worse, and the menstrual-like cramps are shooting a little, but still very mild. I'm feeling nauseous and not much like eating. For the first time ever, that bottle of Coke does not look so tempting.
I'm not really feeling like myself, and this is really unpleasant. There have been months when PMS symptoms "confused" me because of how similar they can be to early pregnancy (and I've never been pregnant), but this is just..completely different. I just don't feel the same. I won't know what to think if my period starts. I'll be ok with it if it does; I've made peace with that. Something, though, is just not right...
..and I'm just feeling really really yucky. :( :( :( :( :(
And I'm not testing until a week after a missed period.

CBNNew.com - LOD, Israel - The Shin Bet (General Security Agency) lifted a gag order Monday on a kidnapping/murder plot by Arabs from the Israeli city of Lod, near Tel Aviv.
In a joint operation with Israel Police, the Shin Bet arrested three Israeli Arabs, who admitted to planning to kidnap an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) solider, videotape and then murder him to use his remains to barter for the release of Palestinian prisoners.
According to the indictment, Amir Nafar, 20, Ayman Kadura, 26, and Yassin Hinawi, 19, met for the first time last December in Lod's al-Omari Mosque to begin planning the attack.
Nafar, who studied sharia law (Islamic religious law) at a university in Jordan, initiated the plan.
On Monday, the Petah Tikva District Court indicted Nafar and Kadura on charges of aiding the enemy in wartime and criminal conspiracy. The court charged Hinawi, who was less involved in planning the attack, with aiding and abetting his friends.
The indictment states that all three men are active members of a terror organization called the Islamic Movement, led by Sheikh Ra'ad Salah.

Spark rubbed her face, "Arc send a clone after her, make sure she doesn't get lost."
The longer she lives the more people they'll send after her and I can find the gang leader.
She found her dagger on the man Aria had knocked out. "We'll need to find your sword."
Spark knew the city well, being a slave tends to burn itself into ones memory. She knew where their armory was and knew where the gang leader would be.
I'm sure that he will be in a tavern drinking to his success.
They arrived at the armory without much problem and even killed the guards. Spark was calm though, Arc asked her why she wasn't angry, "Well because that girl punched me. This time she didn't hold back, she didn't plan anything out. She also made herself a target, people won't be looking for us. Remind me to thank her."
Spark walked around,
There isn't much here, I wonder why.
Spark looked through all of the weapons, supplies, and other objects. She took some wire and another knife, she looked hard for his sword though she couldn't find it. Eventually she found something better than a sword, "Hey Arc look what I found." Arc came back glowing brightly because he had found his sword. Spark ignored it and showed him the crate full of explosives.
"We can rig every tavern with this, killing a lot of gangs." Arc lifted the crate and Spark found a large amount of wire coiled behind it, "Whoah, it seems like they had a similar idea, there is no way we can leave here without destroying their supply." After some tinkering she managed to figure out how to link all the bombs with wire, she reasoned electricity from her would be the trigger.
They went around setting up the explosives, eventually every tavern was rigged. Spark warned them all to stay away from the wall. She ran the wire, linked to all the explosives, outside the city. She noticed Aria and called out to her, "Hey thanks for punching me, want to see your celebration surprise?"
Spark put a current through her dagger and tapped the wire, she held it there feeling herself getting drained. After a few seconds (seconds that felt like hours to Spark) the explosions went off, not destroying the city but definitely destroying the taverns. The amount of power it took to power all of the explosives was too much for Spark and she passed out.

Kirkland Vows Not To Repeat Ishida Mistake With Molina
By Keith Idec
James Kirkland claims he couldn't possibly take Carlos Molina lightly, not after the Ishida Nobuhiro debacle.
Kirkland knows full well that another upset loss would be difficult to overcome, especially since he is inching toward a shot at WBC 154-pound champ Saul Alvarez. He has prepared accordingly for his 10-round fight against Chicago's Molina (19-4-2, 6 KOs) on Saturday night at Reliant Arena in Houston (HBO; 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT).
"A lot of people think I was coming in underestimating Carlos and his style, but we [haven't] done that," said Kirkland, of Austin, Texas. "I made that mistake [against] Ishida, but you learn from all your mistakes. I'm just staying focused.
"We've worked on a bunch of different things because there's no telling what this fight can be. It can be a head-on collision, it could be a lion chasing a deer. It could be so many different things. … We never know what we're up against. When it comes down to the fight, the first person that feels that first pop, we'll find out what type of fight it's going to become."
The 28-year-old Kirkland (30-1, 27 KOs) is at least certain that Molina has never encountered an opponent like him.
"He hasn't fought no one halfway like me, as far as [someone who's] going to be able to impose the will, as far as cutting the [ring] off," said Kirkland, who was knocked out in the first round by Japan's Ishida (24-7-2, 9 KOs) on April 9 in Las Vegas. "People don't believe I have the boxing ability. They don't know that I can actually box. But I tell people if they put me in that position, I will box. I'm just going to have fun."
The WBC has mandated that the winner between Kirkland, ranked No. 2 at 154 pounds, and the 15th-ranked Molina must fight top-ranked Vanes Martirosyan (32-0, 20 KOs) in his next bout in a fight to become the mandatory challenger for Mexico's Alvarez (39-0-1, 29 KOs).

Cutting kids' cholesterol is a family affair
CHICAGO -- Parents have a new ally in the effort to clean up their kitchens and improve their children's eating habits -- and their own.
"Kids are hugely interested in the cooking shows like 'Iron Chef,'" said Jodie Shield, co-author of "Healthy Eating, Healthy Weight for Kids and Teens" (Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2011) and a registered dietitian in Chicago.
Seize that as an impetus to cook and eat more at home, using vegetables and other fresh ingredients, just as the chefs do.
"What's exciting about healthy eating is, the recommendations for most families are the same thing we keep saying," Shield said. "But I think they're starting to be heard more."
A diet with total fat at 25-30 percent of calories, saturated fat less than 10 percent of calories, and cholesterol intake less than 300 mg has been shown to reduce cholesterol (the bad kind) in healthy children older than 2.
Tracking numbers like those for weeks (or even a day) isn't realistic for most parents, let alone children. So Shield recommends referring to ChooseMyPlate.gov, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's heir to the food pyramid.
That plate visual in your mind can help your kid load it up, she said. "Portion size fits into all of this."
Shield outlined some healthy eating habits that parents should establish:
- Start with dairy. "When I look at a low-fat diet, I look at dairy right away, because it's such a big part of kids' diets," she said.
At age 2, most children should shift to 1 percent fat or skim milk, Shield said. "But I can tell you it doesn't happen. Most people I talk to drink 2 percent, and 2 percent still has a lot of fat."
An 8-oz glass of 2 percent milk has 120 calories, 5 grams total fat, 3 of which are saturated, and 20 mg of cholesterol. By comparison, skim has 80 calories, 0 grams of fat and 5 mg of cholesterol.
"If kids are drinking four cups of milk a day, it's very healthy for them to make the change," Shield said, "and both are equally nutritious, assuming they are fortified with vitamins A and D, as most are."
Substitutes such as almond milk may not have the same vitamin package, she pointed out, so compare labels.
"We need vitamin D to absorb calcium, which has been a big problem. Especially in the Midwest, most people are fairly deficient. We don't get enough sun so our bodies don't make enough."
- Make vegetables tasty. They don't have to be raw, Shield said. "But you don't have to cook them in butter. If you're going to add fat, try olive or canola oil. It still has calories, but they're much healthier (calories)."
She is not above cooking green beans in bacon fat -- once in a while.
"I'd like to start with healthy fat, which helps with certain vitamins being absorbed, but if you give kids a little ranch dressing and they eat a few more, that's OK, too. The point is to get them to love to eat healthy foods."
- Direct the sweet tooth to fruits or low-fat dairy. "Fruits are fat-free and wonderful," Shield said. And they don't have to be organic. "There's no science that shows organic is healthier."
For yogurt, look for low-fat or fat-free, and consider the smaller 6-ouncers.
Don't rule out an occasional treat such as a restaurant shake. "Some make them with 1 percent milk," she said.
- Seek fiber; watch sugar. Soluble fiber, as in oatmeal, beans and many fruits, can make you feel more full and lower LDL, the bad cholesterol. "Oatmeal is one of the best cereals kids can eat," Shield said. "Instant oatmeal is (OK), but get plain and add your own sugar or whatever else," because some packets are loaded with sugar.
Half of the grains you eat should be whole grains, as in some boxed cereals. Those have insoluble fiber, which can help prevent constipation
- Choose meat, poultry and fish carefully. Opt for lean cuts of meat, such as loins and rounds. Buy skinless chicken. "Skin doubles the fat," she said.

When we married in 1986, our dream was to have an Inn. A year later we put down roots in Mount Tremper when we fell in love with a 1940's era tavern, which had a huge bar, a 50 seat restaurant and some land. We planted fruit & vegetable gardens, built a brick courtyard, an upstairs apartment, added flower gardens, a greenhouse, and frog pond.
In 2007, we ventured into lodging by converting the entire tavern into a four room Inn with an intimate 26 seat dining room and later put in a three season heated salt water pool. We're now working on an outdoor shower, changing room and sauna.
The rooms are simple stylish spaces mindful of comfort and privacy with modern amenities.

a "shady" site, you're OK. The 2013 Cisco Annual Security Report seems to indicate that thinking is completely backward though; most malware is served up through malicious online advertisements via otherwise secure, legitimate sites. How should enterprises react to this report? Are there ways to ensure Web browser protection for users?
Ask the Expert!
SearchSecurity.com expert Nick Lewis is standing by to answer your questions about enterprise security threats. Submit your question via email. (All questions are anonymous.)
Historically, the most malicious sites were found on the less-savory side of the Internet, so to speak, which meant organizations could block a significant amount of Web-based malware simply by preventing their users from visiting those sites.
As stated in the 2013 Cisco Annual Security Report, users are now more likely to be infected by what some would think is a secure website. Compromised ad networks, search engine poisoning and watering hole attacks are now making high-profile websites even greater security risks than sites that were traditionally thought of as "shady." From an enterprise perspective, this is especially troubling because the number of users who frequent secure websites will be far more than those visiting stereotypically dangerous ones.
In terms of how enterprises can react to this change in the Web security threat landscape, there are unfortunately not a lot of options that actually address the underlying issue. Blocking malware at the network level does not address smartphones using their cellular data connections, alternative Internet connections or mobile users on external networks. Network-based blocking and analysis does have significant advantages for detecting potentially suspicious network connections and blocking them, but if the outgoing connection is only blocked after the system is compromised, the protection might not be sufficient. With the increase in watering hole attacks, even whitelisting approved websites won't protect insecure clients.
Regardless of the platform, securing the client system is the only way to secure the general Web browsing experience for users.

The calendar has turned to December, and the 2013 NFL season is in the home stretch.
As such, there are a number of big games in Week 14, including a showdown for first place in the NFC South in New Orleans.
Can the Kansas City Chiefs stop their three-game losing streak against the reeling Washington Redskins? Can the San Francisco 49ers stop the Seattle Seahawks from running away with the top seed in the NFC?
Add to that matchups between first-place teams in Cincinnati and Detroit, and this promises to be an exciting weekend of NFL action.
Here's how experts from around cyberspace (including the NFL braintrust here at Bleacher Report) expect that action to play out.

Let Our Kids Run Free, Not Pit Bulls
August 2, 1996
You never realize just how a news story affects you, your family and everyone around until something happens to you. I am speaking about the latest pit-bull mauling. When my son was attacked, one of the first things I was told was that the dog was a pit bull. If you are like us and most others, the first thing that came to our minds was "Thank God it didn't kill him or get his face. " As our son continues to try to make his 8-year-old mind stronger and less fearful and his body tries to heal, we deal with scarring and other procedures he might have to endure.
Letters: The real pit-bull story in Philadelphia
July 14, 2010
RE THE letter "Pit bull of the Week": As a volunteer for the PSPCA/ACCT, let me answer your questions, Mr. Felix. First, the reason that some pit bulls attack anyone is because they are trained to do so by their idiot owners. And by the way, there isn't an attack "every week. " Second, the reason that the Pet of the Week is always a pit bull is that so much of this city's population thinks it's cool to get a pit bull, either for fighting or for breeding (to make money)
Pit bull found savagely killed in Northeast Philly
June 26, 2010
By MICHELLE SKOWRONEK, email@example.com 215-854-5926
The popping sound of firecrackers is common around Ditman and Levick streets in Tacony, neighbors say. But last night that sound came from a gun used to shoot a pit bull in the head. It was the second pit bull that was found killed in a public area in two weeks. About 10 p.m. last night, residents on Ditman heard a "pop, pop" but thought nothing of it until cops arrived in the back alley way about an hour later. Police found a brown pit-bull mix laying in a puddle of its own blood, tied to a fence post with a gunshot wound on the side of its head.
Legislator Seeks Tougher Penalties To Halt Dogfights
June 12, 1986
By Walter F. Roche Jr., Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau
A Philadelphia legislator has filed a bill designed to end fighting contests by dogs and other animals that have become a fad in some areas of his district. Rep. Gordon Linton, a Democrat who represents sections of Northwest Philadelphia, filed the bill this week stating that his proposal would make people who promote or sponsor pit-bull contests subject to stiff fines and jail terms. He said legislation setting a stiffer penalty was necessary because existing laws had failed to halt the growing practice.
Letters Encounter with a pit bull
December 12, 2003
MY 6-YEAR-OLD daughter was recently attacked by a pit bull, with some pretty serious lacerations. When I called police, they referred me to animal control. The people who own the dog were only given a citation and a fine. The dog got away with no repercussions at all. The police - I mean "animal control" - said to call the next time the dog was outside without a leash. I thought there was a leash law requiring all dogs to be controlled while outside in public. Next time could prove fatal.
Rampaging Pit Bull Is Killed
July 1, 1987
By John Hall, Special to The Inquirer
A pit bull terrier escaped from its pen in Levittown on Sunday night, charged into a backyard birthday party, bit one boy and was shot by Bristol Township police as it chased two other boys on a bicycle, police said yesterday. The dog's owner, Terry Thompson of Aspen Lane, told police he was not home when the dog, named Rosco, got out of his pen. Thompson said he believed that someone had lifted a fastener that locked the gate. About 7:30 p.m. police got a complaint of a loose dog causing havoc at a neighbor's birthday party for a 7-year-old girl.
Pit Bulls Can Be Trained To Terrorize
December 22, 1988
By Ron Avery, Daily News Staff Writer
They can be great pets and great fighters. In the wrong hands they can, and are, used as instruments of crime and terror. Originally bred in England to fight bears or bulls in a pit, they are pit bulldogs. American pit bulls were bred to fight each other, mostly in the rural South. Until seven or eight years ago, pit bulls were rarely seen in northern cities. Now thousands can be found in Philadelphia - some in the wrong hands. Recently, the vicious use of pit bulls manifested itself in several incidents in Philadelphia: Five youngsters were bitten Dec. 15 when two pit bulls ran amok among children playing in the schoolyard of St. Edward's parish school in North Philadelphia.
Couple Is Pining For Stolen Pit Bull
April 21, 1997
by Yvonne Latty, Daily News Staff Writer
She's brown with a white belly, weighs about 50 pounds and has sweet disposition. Her name is Roxie, and she's a 2-year-old pit bull. Her owners don't know if she's still alive. About six weeks ago, she was snatched by two carloads of teen-aged dognappers right out of her North Philadelphia back yard. The thieves tricked the friendly pooch into coming close to the gate for a cuddle. Then they scooped her up, threw her in the back of their car and sped off. What Roxie left behind were tears and heartbreak as her owners, Ira and Patricia Williamson, grieve for their sweet pet as they would for a lost child.
LETTERS Warning: Pit bull area
September 28, 2004
HOW MANY more attacks by these four-legged menaces are we going to have to endure before City Council does something? These pit bulls are a serious drain on the quality of life meter - just ask the poor woman going to work at 6:30 in the morning. I propose a law similar to the one that applies when a sex offender moves into your neighborhood. You should have the location and the name of the owners of these four-legged weapons posted around the streets to warn people that they're entering pit-bull territory - akin to a deer crossing.
Pit Bulls On Hit List In Britain
May 23, 1991
By Larry Eichel, Inquirer Staff Writer
Britain, a nation of dog lovers, has found a breed it hates: the American pit bull terrier. And under a ban on fighting dogs now being rushed into law, as many as 10,000 pit bulls now living in Britain could be put to death. After a series of attacks by bull terriers against children in the last few days, the government on Tuesday banned the import of pit bulls. And yesterday, it announced that it would seek to eliminate the breed from British soil. "It is clear that such dogs have no place in our homes," said Prime Minister John Major, at whose insistence the measure was drafted.

Past needles and pit bulls, Edison's teachers walk the walk
September 8, 2016
By Kristen A. Graham, STAFF WRITER
Dena Bassett-Scott stepped over a discarded hypodermic needle and glanced at a pit bull barking urgently against a chain-link fence inches away. "I'm thinking of our younger students - they're walking all this way, and they're seeing all this, and they're scared," said the math teacher at Edison High. On Wednesday, 1,200 pupils are scheduled to report to Edison for the first day of school. On Tuesday, more than 100 staffers walked the North Philadelphia streets that most of their students will travel to get to class.
Dog bites man and woman in S. Philly is shot by police
August 4, 2016
A police officer shot and killed a dog that attacked a man and a woman Tuesday night in the Point Breeze section of South Philadelphia, police said. About 8 p.m., police received a call about a dog attacking a woman in the area of South 16th and Dickinson Street, said Chief Inspector Scott Small. An officer arriving on the scene saw a pit bull biting a 28-year-old man in the hand in the 1500 block of Dickinson, Small said. The officer was unable to kick the dog away, so he shot it once, killing it. The man was bit on the finger but refused medical treatment.
Police kill dog that was attacking woman
May 8, 2016
By Julie Shaw, STAFF WRITER
Philadelphia police shot and killed a pit bull that was attacking a woman in North Philadelphia late Thursday night, authorities said. Capt. Nicholas Brown of the East Detective Division said Friday that two officers were on routine patrol shortly after 11 p.m. Thursday when they were waved down by the woman on the 3200 block of North American Street. The 27-year-old woman, who did not live on that block, was being attacked by a dog that wasn't hers, he said. "She was actively being attacked when she jumped onto the hood of a car," Brown said.
What breed am I? It can be hard to tell
March 13, 2016
By Kim Campbell Thornton, Universal Uclick
COULD YOU pick out a pit bull from a lineup? You might think so, but there's a good chance you'd be wrong. Even experts have problems when it comes to labeling a breed or mix. That's bad news for dogs who are misidentified, especially if they are in communities with breed-specific legislation - laws that ban certain types of dogs. To test the accuracy of shelter dog identification, University of Florida researchers went to four shelters and asked a total of 16 shelter staff members with at least three years of experience, including four vets, to look at 120 dogs (30 at each shelter)
Delco SPCA's longtime resident Abby Rose gets a home
January 1, 2016
By Mari A. Schaefer, STAFF WRITER
Abby Rose got her Christmas wish. The 3-year-old female terrier/pit bull mix - the Delaware County SPCA's longest-tenured resident - left the Media shelter Tuesday wagging her tail as she headed out the door with her new family. "This is what she deserves - years of joy," said Justina Calgiano, spokeswoman for the SPCA. It was a bittersweet moment for the shelter staff as one of their favorite charges left after 357 days. Abby Rose, for her part, stopped and asked to be petted, or rubbed the legs of the volunteers and shelter staff who came to see her off. By Thursday afternoon, the video of Abby Rose leaving the shelter, posted on the Delaware County SPCA Facebook page, had been viewed 25,000 times, there were more than 3,600 likes, and about 500 comments were posted wishing her well.
Haven: Forgoing formal for modern look
November 22, 2015
By Sally A. Downey, For The Inquirer
When Daphne Howard was a child, houses in her Main Line neighborhood had formal living rooms with sofas upholstered in brocade or chintz, and formal dining rooms with mahogany buffets, tables, and high-back chairs. Windows were enveloped in silken drapes with swagged valances. Today, she owns a Main Line home with a different decor. "We are not formal people; I didn't want a formal dining room or living room," she says. Instead, she opted for an "eclectic modern" look. The Cape Cod in Rosemont, built in 1933, was purchased by Daphne and husband Rob in 1997.
One man found guilty of animal cruelty, another pleaded guilty to the same charge
November 15, 2015
BY DAN SPINELLI, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-5906
SUZIE AND DAISY, both pit bulls, are lucky to be alive after nearly being killed by their owners who were fined and barred from owning animals for 90 days following hearing in Municipal Court yesterday. In his East Falls home, Kevin Spence, 56, kept Suzie in a collar so tight that authorities said "her skin had begun to grow around" it. The Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals charged Spence with animal neglect in August, took custody of Suzie, treated her wounds, and have since found her a new home.
City dog euthanized after owner lied to Bucks SPCA
August 21, 2015
BY VINNY VELLA, Daily News Staff Writer firstname.lastname@example.com, 215-854-2513
IT WAS NEARLY dusk when Patty Lake spotted the pit bull walking unattended on a busy road in Lower Makefield Township. She pulled over her pickup truck, loaded with groceries from a nearby ShopRite, and approached the dog. "She smelled my hand and started wagging her tail," Lake told the Daily News last night. "It was like she was saying, 'Thank god someone's here.' " Lake said the dog looked healthy and had a collar - she thought it had wandered away from its owner. She waited with the pooch until it was taken by a Lower Makefield Police officer, who in turn handed the dog over to the Bucks County SPCA.
Emaciated pit bull abandoned in Tacony Creek Park on the mend
June 15, 2015
By Robert Moran, Inquirer Staff Writer
Nani is lucky to be alive. The emaciated pit bull was discovered Tuesday afternoon in Tacony Creek Park by Luis Montalvo, who was walking his two pit bulls when they alerted him to a skeletal, feces-covered dog lying on some dirt and rocks. "Oh my God, she was bones, literally bones," said Montalvo, 38, of Juniata Park, who offered the dog some water from a bottle. "She was trying to get up, but she couldn't. " Nani was picked up by the Animal Care and Control Team of Philadelphia, who then reached out to Michele Schaffer-Stevens of Lilo's Promise Animal Rescue in Voorhees.

SPCA police officers removed 13 pit bulls from what officials called a suspected dogfighting operation in a home in South Philadelphia early Tuesday. Officials from the Pennsylvania Society for the Protection of Animals said eight puppies and five adult dogs were taken late Monday from the house on the 2200 block of Mifflin Street. While the puppies were found in good condition, some of the adult dogs were injured and treated by veterinarians, said George Bengal, the PSPCA's director of law enforcement.

Artists turn Fond du Lac Ave. into their canvas
In 1842, Johnsons Park was a farm where escaped slave Caroline Quarlls stayed, marking the start of the Underground Railroad in the area. A century after that pocket of the city harbored slaves seeking freedom, and a generation after homes in the neighborhood were razed to make way for a freeway, dislocation remains an ongoing issue for many living and working in and around a swath of Fond du Lac Ave., according to the organizers of a community-driven, yearlong public art project.
The public art initiative along 20 blocks of Fond du Lac Ave., between N. 17th and 37th streets, is designed to help Milwaukeeans rediscover this once vital artery and its history while engaging with artists and each other. »Read Full Article
Watch Dave Sobelman create his restaurant's Chicken Fried Bloody Beast
When Dave Sobelman, owner of Sobelman's Pub & Grill, created the Chicken Fried Bloody Beast last week, he expected the concoction to gain attention on Facebook. But he never expected his customers would actually want to order it.
The 80-ounce Bloody Mary contains many of the ingredients that Sobelman adds in his original line of Bloody Marys. The vodka and tomato-juice based drink is decked out in celery, scallions, pickles, olives, shrimp, lemons, grape tomatoes, sausage, cheese wedges, brussel sprouts, pickled onions, pickled mushrooms and bacon-wrapped jalapeño cheese balls. But the real eye-catcher is the 4- to 6-pound fried chicken that sits on the rim of the pitcher and hugs its legs to the glass. »Read Full Article(4)

DAMASCUS, Syria - At a two-day meeting in Damascus, Palestinian terror groups again called for the return of Palestinian refugees from the 1948 war and their descendants to the State of Israel. On Monday, the 5,000 participants pledged to use legal, economic, and media campaigns to achieve their goal of flooding the Jewish state with enough Arabs to wipe it off the map. The conference also called on the United Nations to expel Israel from its membership. Participants concluded that "resistance" (a euphemism for terror attacks) is the fastest and most effective way to achieve their political objectives. Source: The Associated Press

Lomachenko's Manager: Rigondeaux Talk is Premature
By Yuri Tarantin
Egis Klimas, the manager of two-time Olympic gold medal winner Vasyl Lomachenko (1-0, 1KO), says a potential fight with Guillermo Rigondeaux (13-0, 8KOs), also a two-time Olympic gold medal winner, is very premature to discuss.
On March 1, Lomachenko will attempt to capture a world title in only his second pro bout, when he faces dangerous WBO featherweight champion Orlando Salido.
Ridgondeaux is the WBA/WBO champion at 122-pounds, while Lomachenko is fighting at 126 and says a potential fight with Cuban will have to take place at the featherweight limit.
The anticipation is already starting to build, for a showdown between two fighters who many consider to be the greatest amateur boxers of their time.
"I know that right now there is a lot of talk about the possibility of such a fight, but at this moment those talks [are premature]. At the moment we have only one goal - to beat Salido and win a world title. We are not thinking about anything else. Rigondeaux great fighter and creates problems for his opponents. He fights effectively, but he is not spectacular and the people watching do not like this," Klimas said.
Yuri Tarantin covers boxing for Allboxing.ru.
I agree with Respect Power and Addix. Plus, who cares what this wannabe manager says. He just gets these Russian fighters because he speaks English and Russian. Then "sells" them to US promoters and gets paid by the US promoters…Comment by Respect Power on 12-26-2013

For those committed to the training of residents, the issue of who performs the surgery is an important one. The ethical question involved in persons placing themselves under the responsibility of a surgeon of their choice only to discover that the operation is performed, albeit under direct supervision, by a resident in training, can be difficult to resolve. Central to a free-enterprise philosophy is the belief that fee payment secures particular rights for the buyer (the patient), as well as somehow increasing his bond with the seller (the surgeon). If the surgeon is to depart from this implied relationship, such a move must be well understood by all parties. Additionally, pressure is presently being exerted on many urban teaching hospitals by the recent implementation of Section 227 of the Social Security Amendments of 1972 (Public Law 92-603), which potentially limits payments for surgery performed by the resident staff.1,2

Night of the Living Dummy
by R. L. Stine
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Goosebumps are really fun stories for younger grades like second through fifth, to explore the mystery genre these books are appropriate for younger people while still being interesting enough to keep attention. I like how they are interactive and kids can choose their own endings.
In this book two unlucky children find a dummy named Slappy. The dummy always wakes up in the middle of the night and always does something bad. One night he chooses to do something extra bad. He makes some slaves...
This book is about two girls named Lindy and Kris who are twin sisters. When they were walking by the dumpster, they found a dummy inside it. A dummy is a doll that you can move and make talk like a puppet. Lindy is more curious and takes the dummy which makes Kris jealous. Kris then gets a dummy too. Kris was practicing for the talent show when she found a yellow paper in the dummy's pocket, which she read. Two days later the dummy came alive. What will the dummy do? Will it sneak up on you? Will it scare you? Will it take over the world? I loved the mystery and how the book came to life. My favorite part was when the dummy was screaming from the closet because he wanted to get out. The scariest part for me was when the dummy grabbed the girls' dog and choked it. It reminded me of my dog and it made me scared. If you want to find out what happens with the dog, the dummy, and the girls, you should read this book.
The Night of the living dummy is about Lindy and Kris, two girls who are twins and found a dummy in a house that is being built. They took the dummy with them and the younger twin Lindy kept it. After awhile Kris got jealous of Lindy being popular with the dummy called Slappy. A couple days later Kris"s mom got her a dummy too. Kris called it Mr. Wood. Lindy then found a little piece of paper and read out some words not knowing what they would do. So in every night the dummies would move and would try to kill each other.
After Kris figured something was happening she and her sister put Mr. Wood in a suit case and buried him because he wanted them to be slaves. Mr. Wood teleported back into their room and the twins threw mr. Wood on the street. He was run over by a car and was obliterated. They headed back inside. Suddenly Slappy grabbed Kris"s hand and says " Is he gone?, I thought he"d never leave."
I thought the book was great it was interesting and i couldn't stop reading! It was a page turner i give it 4 Stars, because it was Good, interesting, and a page turner. I don't like how it is a cliff hanger. Also there is no sequel to this book which is kind of disappointing.
Kris and Lindy Powell are twin sisters. They share not only their birthday, but also their room, their clothes--just about everything. It's a blessing and a curse--they're very close, but they can really irritate each other, too.
One day, when looking around next door, where a house is being build, Lindy finds a ventriloquist's dummy among the garbage, and names it Slappy. As she practices and gets skilled with the dummy, Kris becomes jealous, wanting her own dummy. Their father finds one at a pawn show, very cheap--the owner of the shop seemed to be glad to be rid of it. Kris names her dummy Mr. Wood, and sets to practicing.
However, strange things start to happen with the dummies. They seem to be moving around when no one is looking, fighting with each other. When Lindy tries to demonstrate to Kris how to move Mr. Wood, the dummy says cruel things, and Lindy claims that she isn't doing it--that the dummy is speaking for himself. Is it all just a practical joke? Or could Mr. Wood be... alive?
The seventh book in R. L. Stine's Goosebumps series, Night of the Living Dummy explores the classic 'evil dummy' story. It's undoubtedly one of the most famous Goosebumps books, though, for my money, the best ventriloquist and evil dummy are Batman's Arnold Wesker and Scarface.
(Spoilers removed. The full review, including spoilers, is available here.)
Night of the Living Dummy isn't bad, but it's got poor characterization, even for a Goosebumps book. The story's okay, though, and as usual it's a quick read. It's probably worth reading once, or rereading for the sake of nostalgia. It's available for the Kindle as Classic Goosebumps #1, so those who want Goosebumps ebooks can pick it up that way, or else get one of the abundant used copies--the world is fairly drowning in used Goosebumps books.

3 Ways to Actively Tie Cloud to Revenue
Cloud is a game changer in many ways. Its benefits are widely known, but there are a number of use cases that illustrate how the cloud can be a valuable tactical asset, tying its usage more closely to revenue than ever before. This shifts the nature of the cloud from passive — infrastructure that underlies that more mission-critical applications and web properties of a business — to active — it enhances those systems.
1. Launching in new markets
Cloud has changed the way many parts of a business run. One of the biggest changes, however, is the shift it has necessitated in where the IT group is situated in relation to revenue. Cloud enables faster delivery of new products, updates, and features, with cloud resources often being used to establish a low cost development and testing environment for continual product development.
[See Convincing the C-Suite on Cloud: CAPEX vs OPEX?]
Based on this ease of deployment, businesses can increasingly leverage the cloud, especially in its hosted form, to more quickly enter new markets. Many managed hosting providers have relationships with global data center providers. This can establish an easy jumping-off point for a business looking to establish brand presence in a new locality but does not have the resources to physically set up shop.
2. Targeted delivery
Through cloud, businesses can deliver products, trades, and ad bids to broader markets faster than ever before. Generally this is achieved through the dynamism of cloud itself, as well as the access to nearly limitless (of course, based on how much you pay) compute power to better derive analytics, information, and knowledge base to target ads, products, and bids more directly.
[See Compliance Do's and Don'ts: What Your Cloud Provider needs to Show You]
Speed is of utmost importance to many businesses, and having a low latency connection to an exchange, whether financial or for advertising purposes, offers a distinct competitive edge.
3. The wealth of data
A business can use cloud for two major tactical outcomes with regards to data in the cloud. The first is to position data closer to end users. This is a well-known use case, and rightfully so, since proximity in data knowledge for a market can enable a wider array of benefits to a business looking for new ways to sell to that market.
The other way is to distribute data in certain countries for strategic legal reasons. Many file sharing businesses do this. Megaupload, for example, failed to consider this as an issue and stored its data in a Virginia-based data center, which exposed the company to a host of legal implications. Many businesses, however, pursue this tactic for compliance and regulatory reasons. A large financial company's decision-making logic depends on data from other exchanges (Germany, Japan, UK, and more). Some countries have stringent rules around the border traversal of data (Germany, for example). The same financial company is now using the cloud to get around having to build a data center at cost locally, since it can opt to utilize a managed hosting provider to maintain the data locally. That data is subject to local laws and regulations, but is no longer vulnerable to litigation based on cross-border issues.
Ultimately, the cloud will only continue to shift where IT sits relative to revenue in an organization. The above outlined opportunities presented by the cloud will only to continue to expand, especially as applications and even whole businesses are conceived and launched within the cloud.

The pickup and checkin was good. The room appeared good at first glance, but then when I opened the closet, there was a hole in the door and in the back wall of the closet! The room had a underwindow air conditioner that worked well, but for a level 5 tier I would have thought that there would have been a thermostat on the wall and not a rotary knob. The internet was good, though, and the TV was good, but it would have been nice to have some guide for what channels had what networks, so that you wouldn't have to surf through the whole TV.

The Delhi University has told the Delhi High Court that it has asked colleges to promote to the next semester undergraduate students whose results of the previous semester were not declared due to lack of attendance.
Justice G S Sistani, who was hearing two petitions filed by aggrieved students of Dayal Singh College, was informed by the varsity that they will be promoted to the next semester and their results of previous semester examinations would not be held back due to shortage of attendance.
In view of the notification of the university on the issue, the court disposed of students' pleas filed by advocate R K Saini.
The college had withheld their results as they did not have the stipulated 66.66 per cent of attendance.
