Cable & Wireless Communications Plc ("CWC") today announced that it has agreed with Bahrain Telecommunications Company ("Batelco") the sale of the majority of the assets of its Monaco & Islands business unit for an enterprise value of US$680 million.
CWC will divest its entire shareholdings in its businesses in The Maldives, Channel Islands and Isle of Man, the Seychelles, South Atlantic and Diego Garcia as well as creating a partnership with Batelco for CWC's 55% shareholding in Monaco Telecom. Batelco will have a 25% shareholding in the partnership with CWC maintaining a 75% shareholding.
CWC's disposal of its Monaco & Islands division is in line with the company's strategy to reshape its portfolio of businesses to focus on the Central American and Caribbean region as well as increasing its financial flexibility. The businesses included in the transaction serve a combined 752,000 mobile, fixed, broadband and TV customers.
The sale is subject to the satisfaction of necessary regulatory and other conditions, and is expected to complete by the end of CWC's current financial year.
Eddie Saints, chief executive of Sure said:
'We are pleased with today's announcement that Sure will be joining the Batelco Group. Batelco is an international telecoms operator respected for delivering value and innovation to its customers. Batelco is committed to the continuing development of our businesses in the Channel Islands and Isle of Man and Sure will also benefit from its international partnerships and relationships. Nonetheless, our focus will remain on delivering the best services to our customers.'
Tony Rice, CEO of Cable & Wireless Communications, commented:
'The sale of the majority of the Monaco & Islands portfolio is consistent with our objective of building a growth-driven, Pan-America-focused business. We believe that Batelco will be an excellent owner and operator for these businesses, bringing deep telecoms capability and international experience, to continue to invest and grow the businesses.'
Sheikh Mohamed bin Isa Al Khalifa, Batelco Group chief executive, commented:
'Sure is a well-managed business that we want to invest in so that it continues to build upon its existing strengths. Batelco is in the process of building a telecoms business of global relevance of which the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man will be an important part. We will continue the development of Sure as a market leader and we are looking forward to supporting each of the businesses and contributing to the communities they operate in.'

The stock of Seagate Technology increased by more than 10% on Tuesday and trade volumes were six times higher than usual. Some analysts believe that this means that Seagate is about to be acquired, or is negotiating with a potential buyer. Perhaps, Seagate is getting ready to merge with another company.
"Call options in the disc driver maker exceed normal trading volume by 10 times. Based on heavy trading in June contracts, one idea is Seagate may be considered a takeover candidate," observers from optionMonster web-site noted.
Potentially, increasing stock may also indicate an incoming merge of Seagate with another company from the sector that involves stock exchange.

3i's Russell returns with new debt fund
Jonathan Russell, a veteran dealmaker who was seen as a potential chief executive of listed buyout firm 3i Group before he unexpectedly resigned in 2010, has re-emerged with the founding of his own debt management firm, Financial News has learned.
Russell has secured FSA approval this month for Spire Partners, a debt management and advisory firm focused on western Europe. The launch is believed to be Russell's first full-time role since quitting 3i in September 2010 following the decision by then chief executive Michael Queen to merge the firm's buyout and growth capital teams. Russell was global head of buyouts.
Russell spent 24 years with 3i and was tipped as a potential chief executive of the firm when both Brian Larcombe and Philip Yea departed. According to a Financial News report at the time, citing sources familiar with the situation, the relationship between Russell and Queen had become strained during the restructuring with Russell offered roles he did not want.
In the months after his departure, Russell was followed out of the door by a number of senior figures, including the head of UK buyouts Mike Robins. This became the catalyst for an investor group to push for fee reductions at 3i's flagship €5bn Eurofund in exchange for allowing it to complete its investment period as scheduled.
Russell has been joined in his new venture by fellow 3i alumni Andrew Golding, Oliver Drummond Smith and Phil Bennett-Britton. Golding was the banking partner at 3i before founding its debt management division in 2007. He led the acquisition of Mizuho Investment Management in September 2010 before departing in February 2012. Drummond Smith and Bennett-Britton were members of the 3i debt management team.
Golding said that Spire had secured $500m from a US institutional investor to invest in European credit opportunities, although it had yet to begin investing due to restrictions placed on the individuals upon leaving 3i. Those constraints have now expired and Golding expects Spire to begin launching a close ended debt vehicle in the near future "although we have not yet decided what form it will take beyond the ability to invest in primary and secondary credits".
Spire is the latest firm aiming to raise a debt vehicle, as banks retreat from lending and investors flock to high yield products to outpace inflation. Groups including Metric Capital Partners, Triton Partners are all in the process of raising debt funds while Georges Ralli, former global deputy chairman at investment bank Lazard, officially launched IPF Partners this week to back healthcare companies in Europe.
James Newsome, managing partner of placement agent Avebury Capital Partners, said: "There is strong interest among traditional private equity investors and others for debt strategies right now. Growth debt funds typically pay high cash interest at a time when interest rates are very low and also provide upside participation in growth companies.
"But investors are still wary after the last crisis and are looking for fund managers who have a specific edge or unique access to a particular market which, which the IPF team does."

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – The Illinois State Board of
Education, in partnership with Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn's
office, recently awarded Learn and Serve America grants
totaling more than $550,000 to 44 school districts and
regional programs in an effort to promote students' involvement
in both the classroom and their community.
"Learn and Serve America extends classroom learning
out into communities where students see first-hand the
positive difference they can make," said Randy
Dunn, State Superintendent Education. "The hands-on
projects that make up the program help the students and
the whole community."
Service learning is a teaching method in which students
apply what they are learning in their classrooms as they
work to meet important needs in their communities. High-quality
service-learning is an effective means of fostering civic
responsibility in students while promoting academic learning
and social/emotional development. The overall purpose
of the Illinois K-12 Learn and Serve America program
is to encourage and support the use of service learning
as a teaching methodology in the elementary and secondary
schools of Illinois.
The National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993
established the Learn and Serve America Program, which
is administered by the Corporation for National and Community
Service. Since the program's first year in 1994-1995,
ISBE has been awarded an annual LSA grant.
In the grant's first year, 70 sub-grants were
issued to individual schools, local school districts
or groups of cooperating school districts in Illinois.
An estimated 7,000 to 8,000 Illinois elementary and secondary
students participated in these service-learning activities.
More than 45,000 students in these 44 local school districts
and regional programs will participate in the Illinois
School-Based Learn and Serve America Program during the
2006-2007 school year.
"Service learning is a tool which allows students
to become actively engaged in their studies as well as
leaders in their communities," Lt. Governor Pat
Quinn said. "By linking public service to the academic
curriculum, students grow into real world problem solvers,
and I look forward to working with each of these school
districts to expand service learning in Illinois."
Recently, the Lt. Governor's Office was appointed as
the new coordinator of the Illinois Learn and Serve
America Program through an intergovernmental agreement with ISBE.
The Lt. Governor has administered the innovative Cesar
Chavez Serve and Learn Program for the past three years
and has been a long time advocate for community service.
There were 57 proposals submitted for the multi-year
grant. Continuation in years two and three will be contingent
upon sufficient funding for the initiative and satisfactory
performance of grantees.

10 weeks @ 400mg
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Tren advice: 10 weeks at 400 mgs or 20 weeks of 200mgs?
I've done many cycles in past. Recovery not an issue, I'm 31 and on 200 -300 mgs of self administered TRT. Low bodyfat, do 7-12 25 minute cardio sessions a week, and have a decent diet except for a few meals a week. Lately I've been cruising on 300 mgs of test E. I don't really do heavy cycles anymore and have a few bottles of tren E. I was initially thinking of running 300 mgs of test E and add in 400 mgs of tren E a week for 10 weeks. But was wondering if anyone runs tren for long periods of time out there. I know 20 weeks is really long for tren, but it would just be at 200 mgs a week with 300 mgs of test and nothing else. I don't compete or anything, just looking to stay very lean and add steady muscle. And just want a light, low toxic cycle. Is 20 weeks too long even at low dose? Or just go with my original plan of 300 mgs of test and 400 mgs of tren. Any input would be appreciated.
alot of people run tren with there HRT at 100mgs a week and they stay vascular throughout then when they blast they up the dosage .
so yes you'd notice a diff with 200mgs a week and no its not to long
10 weeks max . I find for me 8 weeks is max before my weenie will only get half hard even while using caber. But the good news is a nice short blas, a little break and you can blast again.
haha 20 weeks and you wont even know your penis exists.
10-12 weeks at 400mg is a good cycle
hey brotha id hit the 400mg ten weeks i love tren! do u have orals to kick start it? it may take 3 weeks to feel the tren e as it builds up.
Never had issues with libido, do you guys think I caber with 400 mgs of tren even with the test.
dude i love prami iver caber plus caber has bodily issues research that stuff bro. prami also helps me sleep when taken at night anf has gh boost prop

thanks ill check it out
20 weeks at 400 serious
"so tren makes you 6 ft 4 with wide shoulders and a pretty narrow waist at 270 or so? plus athletic and good looking and rich?
man we should all buy a bunch" -KOS
I would say a lower dose for longer. Preference only
5 weeks at 2 grams
i really dont understand the people that talk about sex problems while on tren.i have a sex problem while on tren all right i have to have sex with every girl i see and my dick stays hard about 19-20 hours of the day. i dont use caber or prami i end up in titty bars and buying escorts i can not control my self at all.i will sale everything i own to have money for girls bar etc. i am in no way that way while off of tren. dose tren do this to anybody else?
I guess your similiar to me. I never had libido issues, but I see alot of talk about it, thats why I asked about having something on hand just in case it ever arrises. Thats also why I brought up 20 weeks at a lower dose, I didn't think my prolactin levels would elevate that much at 200 mgs a week and would not have to worry about it.
lol im horny but witjout prami i xant finish hahaha
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
This thread is awesome. I love hearing different takes on tren. I found one on another forum called "laws of trenbolone." It's awesome. Google it. Same forum has a great low dose tren thread.
Stankyleg is not real. This is all role play.
tren is sick and the bestt

April 18, 2012 —
As the question of the authority that local governments have relative to gas drilling plays out in the state court, officials of the Town of Delaware have concluded that they do not have the authority to make any zoning regulation related to drilling.
At a meeting on April 11 to discuss proposed changes to the zoning code, Gerald Euker, chairman of the planning board, said repeatedly that the town does not have the authority to make any regulation related to zoning.
Resident Kate Kennedy said, "It's your responsibility to protect the health, safety and well-being of the residents." She said other towns such as Tusten had banned drilling and implied that Delaware could do the same.
Euker responded, "We've taken a different position; the Town of Delaware's position is to wait and see."
Two lower courts have ruled that towns do have the authority to ban gas drilling through zoning, and those cases are now working their way through the appellate court, a process that is expected to take a couple of years.
New York State has about 1600 municipalities; 22 have adopted drilling bans, 66 have adopted moratoria, and an additional 66 have groups working for a ban.
On a related topic, town officials believe they do have the authority to regulate compressor stations as long as those regulations are reasonable. The proposed zoning changes would limit the amount of noise that a compressor station could emit, which would be five decibels above the ambient sound. Additionally, the regulations would not allow a compressor station within 1000 feet of a home, or 500 feet of a property line.
In a discussion about compressor stations, planning consultant Tom Shepstone, who said he does not advise the town on gas-drilling issues because of his involvement in the industry, explained the various authorities regarding pipelines and compressor stations.
He said the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has authority over big interstate projects, such as the Millennium Pipeline, which runs through the town. He continued, "Then there are others that are regulated by the Public Service Commission (PSC) in New York, and then there are some that are
like gathering lines that are not regulated by either. So to the extent that there are some that are not regulated at all by FERC or PSC, presumably the town would have some ability to regulate them."
Resident Stephan Lundgren asked if there had been any consideration given to an outright ban of compressor stations, which is one of the provisions of the Town of Dryden zoning code, which was upheld in the Supreme Court of New York.
Euker replied that FERC would have the power to ignore such zoning, and pointed out that FERC had granted approval of a compressor station in the Town of Minisink over the objections of many residents of the town.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - There's nothing like landing at a city - either for the first time or after time away - and gazing out the plane window to catch a glimpse of its skyline. Online travel consultants Cheapflights.com offers its list of the top 10 city skylines. Reuters has not endorsed this list:
1. Hong Kong
Packed with more skyscrapers and people living above the 14th floor (read: that makes it a "vertical city") than any other city on the planet, Hong Kong and its skyline are transforming by the day. Towering across the impressive panorama - best seen from above at Victoria Peak and below from Victoria Harbor - is the HSBC Main Building, I. M. Pei's Bank of China Tower and the International Commerce Centre (at 1,588 feet, the last is the world's third-largest building). We don't anticipate that high-rise construction in the neon-lit city will slow any time soon, so keep an eye out for Hong Kong's latest architectural wonders.

Excellent review. Very well-written and many points I agree with, especially the Meilenwald reference.
The music is also fantastic, it's among my 3 favorite BM albums this year I guess.

Thanks to Pagan Idolatry for posting this. Having recently rediscovered BM I was looking for something intresting to sink my auditory teeth into and bought the album on the strength of the review. I have not been disappointed. Excellent record and I have been listening to it pretty constantly since it arrived.

RRMC agrees to run methadone clinic
RUTLAND Rutland Regional Medical Center has agreed to run a new methadone clinic slated to open in the citys Howe Center.
The hospitals board of directors voted last week to move forward with a state Department of Health plan to open a drug treatment center that police and health officials say is needed to treat heroin and prescription painkiller addictions.
This is obviously good. The hospital stepped up and thats good, Rutland Police Chief James Baker said.
Baker, city officials and members of the citys legislative delegation voiced frustrations during the winter over setbacks in the clinics development that pushed its opening date from Oct. 1, 2012, to a year from that date and maybe longer.
RRMC spokeswoman Priscilla Latkin said Monday that Oct. 1 remains the hospitals target date.
While that date is later than hoped for, Baker and other officials said Monday they were just pleased to hear that the project is moving forward after an earlier plan for Rutland Mental Health Services to run the facility fell apart.
RMHS officials canceled their plans after the organization reached a financial impasse with the state.
Dan Quinn, CEO of RMHS, said last year the states plan of serving no fewer than 400 patients in the clinics first year would have cost his organization as much as $300,000 in uncovered expenses during the first two years of operations.
Under the new plan worked out with the hospital, the facility will open with enough staff to handle 400 people a year but will probably not come close to that number of patients during the first 12 months of operation, according to Deputy Health Commissioner Barbara Cimaglio.
Based on our plan we would start with 400 folks but we know theres not going to be that many, Cimaglio said. The start up is going to be a gradual process. Were not opening the doors with a fixed number of people.
Theres also no limit to how many people the clinic could serve in the future so long as they are residents of Rutland or Bennington counties the only two counties in the state unserved by existing methadone clinics.
How many people are travelling to Hanover, N.H., where the nearest methadone clinic is located is unclear.
But she said for every person not travelling long distances daily for medication needed to control their addictions to heroin and other opiate drugs there exists an opportunity.
When people can receive treatment locally they can get jobs and be productive citizens, she said.

Obviously I've been spending much time blogging about XMRV. This seems to have upset a number of people some of whom have either left snide comments on my blog or written some less than kind emails. The most upsetting thing has been that a couple of the anonymous comments came from people I know and another from a completely unexpected source. I realize the news about xmrv is creating a lot of different emotions. I too am going through the ups and downs and crashes from all of this. But its the first time I've had reason to hope or even entertain the hope that maybe just maybe I can have more of a life than I do. I'm not able to get out much. I can't walk more than one block, I can't drive more than a couple miles. If I blog it means not sending out emails. If I send out emails I can't blog. Each decision I make about something I do involves sacrificing something else. Unfortunately it means I can be perceived as flaky by people who don't have this and then there's the silent punishment for not being able to respond in a timely manner.
I miss by blogging friends or maybe I simply misjudged. It wouldn't be the first time since I've gotten sick that I've misjudged peoples intentions. Nor is it the first time that people have disappeared. I'm used to it by now from people who aren't sick. Sadly I've come to expect it from healthy people. I just didn't expect this sort of response from my peers. I didn't expect the comments or emails(the supportive ones I love). I try not to let it but I do find them hurtful. I wasn't going to post about it but I think I'm just too raw at this point from not feeling well, the lack of sleep, etc...I can't shake the feelings. It's hard to have thick skin when I don't feel well. Plus I'm pretty sensitive to feeling on the periphery. It's an old wound.
But I refuse to put aside my enthusiasm for what is occurring at The Whittmore Peterson Institute nor will I stop blogging about it. I've read on message boards where a few people are saying that the pharmaceutical industry just wants more money and that they will capitalize on this. You know what I say to that? GREAT! Because it means there will be more research into finding medications that will help us. I'm not naive about profit motivations. I worked in San Franciso since before the AIDS epidemic. I lost many friends to that disease. Then they discovered that the retrovirus HIV. It wasn't too long after that the antiretroviral drugs came out. Now they are able to stop HIV in its tracks. People are living with HIV now rather than dying from it. People are dying from ME/CFS too.
The Whittemore Peterson Institue has been able to examine live XMRV in vitro. That means they can start testing treatmens on the live virus. Will this be an answer for everyone with ME/CFS? That remains to be seen. Am I excited to possibly have a deadly retrovirus? Absolutely not. Whether its years or sooner I am hopeful that we will get answers.
From the Reno Gazette :
Judy Mikovits remembers that "eureka" moment when she realized that she and her team of researchers at the Whittemore-Peterson Institute in Reno had discovered a new retrovirus that could lead to a possible treatment, even a vaccine, to combat Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
"It was January 22, and we were in a San Diego restaurant called the Yard House," said Mikovits, who had gone there with fellow scientist Vincent Lombardi to present the results of their research to Frank Ruscetti and Robert Silverman, two of the world's leading virologists.
"We kept waiting for them to say something," Mikovits said. "I was nauseous. Bob (Silverman) waited a long a time, and then he looked up and said, 'Well, this is going to change their world.'"
And it has.

What is in this article?:
- Don't bet your farm: An estate plan can help preserve assets
- Internatinal buyers pushing up values
- Consider family differences
You may not think you have an estate large enough to worry about, but with today's land prices and the value of equipment, storage bins, and other assets, it quickly adds up.
There are two things you need for your farming operation, says Ed Gillentine: an estate plan and a knowledgeable, trusted tax professional.
Otherwise, he says, the consequences to you and your heirs could be unnecessarily costly.
"I've worked with hundreds of estates, and I've never seen an estate that worked out well without some type of plan," he said at the annual meeting of the Mississippi Land Bank. "Given the outlook for further growth in land prices in the coming years, and the increasing value of your equipment, buildings, and other assets, I can promise you: if you don't have a plan, you're going to get hosed."
Gillentine, a Certified Financial Planner and Chartered Financial Consultant with the Memphis firm, Williams & Gillentine Legacy Planning LLC, specializes in large estate transfers and philanthropic strategies, focusing on research, planning, and wealth management for families in the highest tax brackets.
"You may not think you have an estate large enough to worry about," he says, "but with today's land prices and the value of equipment, storage bins, and other assets, it quickly adds up."
Two situations with potential for costly dealings with the IRS, he says, involve those who are "land-rich and cash-poor" and those who have land that has passed down through generations, but have not made provisions for taxes on the increased value.
"Land-rich, cash-poor is something we see a lot," Gillentine says. "When you have a lot of land, you may look wealthy on paper — but if you don't have any operating cash, you have problems.
"What we often see is land that has come down through generations and is now far more valuable, or land that has increased in value since it was purchased.

As the size of the farm grows – and you add a couple of combines, some tractors, a building or two — and you've now got several hundred or several thousand acres, it doesn't take long until you get into millions of dollars of value. With inflation alone, it's amazing how much the value of your assets can increase."
For 2013, the IRS lifetime exemption for estate taxes is $5.25 million, he notes. It's twice that much if you're married, and the exemption automatically rolls over to the surviving spouse, for a total of $10.5 million.
"The tax rate for 2013 is 40 percent of anything over the exemption limit," Gillentine says. "That's what Uncle Sam gets if you die. You need to know these numbers, and you need to know that Congress can change them. When Congress can't find any more money to cover their spending, where do you think they're going to go? They're going to go to the estate tax, because it's not going to affect the masses, and they know they can raise the estate tax and still get enough votes to be re-elected.
"If Congress reduces the exemption and your farm's value keeps going up, you can very quickly hit the limit. Once your farm's value gets to about half the exemption amount, you need to be consulting with your CPA and your attorney."

David Puruolte
Through Water and Fire—Fulfilling His Calling
"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior." (Isaiah 43:2)
To a boy growing up in harsh conditions in India, these words from Isaiah 43 were more precious than silver or gold. Despite setbacks throughout his life, God's Word always gave David Puruolte the strength and comfort he needed. He knew the Lord had a special calling for his life; he just wasn't sure what that calling was.
Back in India, David never could have imagined ending up where he is today. Denied a visa four times before finally receiving permission to come to America, David counts simply being in this country as a blessing. Having gone from a life of impoverishment to living and studying at a Christian college like Dordt, David sees his education at Dordt as a genuine testament to the amazing love and faithfulness of God.
David believes it is his calling to share God's message with others, and Dordt's theology department is helping him do so. He travels with Dordt's Praise and Worship team and gets involved in local church ministries. David is grateful for the community of students and faculty who have provided the opportunities for him to learn and grow in what he's passionate about.
Dordt has truly been a community for David. In classes, dorms, chapel, intramurals, and everywhere else, "people really are on fire for the Lord, and are there for you whenever you need someone to fall back on," he says. Dordt is more than just a school, but a home away from home. It's a place where he can share God's message with others and at the same time receive the assistance and encouragement to continue fulfilling God's calling for his life—day by day making the words of Isaiah all the more dear to his heart.

My true hair color is blonde. I'm not so sure about my wife's color.
I knew when I got married I was getting a bottle blonde but she was
hot looking and I was in love so I didn't really care. Had I taken the
time to calculate the investment that would be required of the family
budget over the years I might have thought twice.
Averaging her own figures of $7-14 per dye job and the four-week
interval she claims the peroxide bill for our marriage comes up to
about $3,400. I think the truth is about twice that. Either way, that's
still more than the down payment on the first home we owned.
I've always been pretty content to play the cards as they were dealt
to me. I'm balding on top and have been pretty gray and getting grayer
for a long time now. I've never dyed what little hair I've got and
never fertilized my balding pate with Rogaine to try and grow new hair.
If I were going to take action though, all I would need to do is
transplant the rapidly growing hair on my eyebrows to the top of my
One of my grandfathers was a silver-haired gentleman and the other
was a chrome dome. My mother has magnificent silver hair and, like her,
I see no reason to fight nature. With my wife it's a different story
If I were to color my hair I would pick one brand of hair color and
one particular color and I would never vary from that. My lovely bride
is never content to stay with one color. She's mostly stayed some shade
of blonde but there have been forays into Lucille Ball land with less
than satisfactory results.
If I lose sight of her in the store somehow she's able to suddenly
move at the speed of a bullet. I know I'll find her in the hair color
aisle looking over the latest tints. If that new shade of blondish red
doesn't look good, she'll just go right back over it with another color.
I'll admit, it has probably added a little spice to our love life
over the years. What man doesn't dream of sleeping with a blonde one
night and a redhead the next.
Compulsive/obsessive? If I keep on believing she's doing it for me
it will all be OK I guess. I just wish she'd quit leaving those little
plastic gloves in the bathtub.
Her real hair color? I don't think even her hairdresser knows for sure.

Perhaps, the era of netbooks has begun now that those devices are becoming rather popular on the market, but according to a survey of the U.S. consumers, the vast majority views netbooks as a secondary device to their desktops or notebooks.
The survey carried out by ABI Research market research company among 1000 consumers found that only 11% of potential users would use a netbook as their primary computer, while a massive 79% view netbooks as a secondary device to be used in addition to a laptop or desktop computer.
"While their low price does cause some consumers to view netbooks as a replacement for a laptop given the current economic conditions, the majority view a netbook as being a secondary device," said principal analyst Philip Solis from ABI.
Netbooks are much smaller and affordable compared to fully-functional laptops, but they do not have optical disc drives integrated and come with rather slow Intel Atom or Celeron M central processing units, moderate graphics adapters as well as insufficient amount of random access memory to perform serious tasks. Netbooks are easy to carry, but they will not be able even to run a large Excel book or multimedia-rich presentation.
"Even as a device that is secondary to the PC, this has to cut into the laptop market somewhat. When considering another laptop as an additional device mostly for browsing the web and using other Internet-based communications applications, consumers will find netbooks to be an appropriate alternative," added Mr. Solis.
It is very likely that many consumers will substitute their fully-fledged laptops with netbooks or thin-and-light affordable notebooks this year. However, users who utilize desktops at home and office and notebooks while traveling may be unlikely to join the netbook crowd since carrying a laptop and a netbook is not very convenient, meanwhile, netbooks cannot provide performance and functionality of notebooks at this time.

Hunt 1230: CWMU Buck deer
Durst Mountain
Season dates
9-1-2014 to 10-31-2014
The Wildlife Board establishes timeframes for hunting on CWMUs. Hunters should expect to hunt at least five days within these timeframes
- Nonresident permits: No
- Resident permits: 2
- Total permits: 2
Type: CWMU
Species: Buck deer
Weapon: Any legal weapon
Durst Mountain
DescriptionThe Durst Mountain Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit (CWMU) is located north of Morgan, Utah and Interstate Highway 84. Cottonwood Creek/Canyon is generally the northern border. Durst Mountain is the high point of the Unit. It is over 9200 feet in elevation. Because Durst Mountain is near the Unit's west boundary elevation only drops to 8700 feet in the west. To the south it drops down to 5200 feet, and to the east and north it decreases to 7600 feet. The entire Unit is quite mountainous. The most common elevation is 7300 feet but ranges from 5100 feet to 9200 feet with an elevation difference of 4100 feet. Forty-nine percent (49%) of the CWMU elevation ranges between 5900 feet and 8400 feet an elevation difference of 2500 feet.
The Durst Mountain Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit (CWMU) is covered with a mixture of three (3) land cover types, Rocky Mountain Gambel Oak-Mixed Montane Shrubland (41), Inter-Mountain Basins Montane Sagebrush Steppe (62), and Rocky Mountain Aspen Forest and Woodland (22). Other Forest and Woodland types are Rocky Mountain Bigtooth Maple Ravine Woodland (23), Rocky Mountain Montane Mesic Mixed Conifer Forest and Woodland (32), Rocky Mountain Montane Dry-Mesic Mixed Conifer Forest and Woodland (30), and Rocky Mountain Subalpine Mesic Spruce-Fir Forest and Woodland (28). There are also patches of Invasive Perennial Grassland (119).
One of the Durst Mountain Cooperative Wildlife Mangement Unit (CWMU) nearest weather stations, MORGAN (425826), is about 10.5 km south from the south edge of the CWMU. MORGAN has one hundred five (105) years of records, 1903 - 2008. During the FALL (September, October and November) the average precipitation is 3.80 inches, but it can be as high as 7.28 inches or as low as 0.46 inch. During the 91-day FALL period, 18 days will experience greater than or equal to 0.01 inch of precipitation, 11 days of greater than or equal to 0.10 inch, or 2 day of the greater than or equal to 0.50 inch of precipitation. Snowfall during the FALL averages 7.3 inches but can be as high as 25.3 inches. FALL temperature at MORGAN averages 46.9 degrees F. but can be as high as 98.0 degrees F. or as low as -12.0 degrees F. During the FALL, 53 days will be below freezing (32 degrees F.) and 1days above 90 degrees F. This map is provided for general reference only and does not constitute a legal hunt boundary. The Division does not guarantee access to any private or public land. Hunt unit boundaries may include private property or other excluded areas.

- Title
- The kinematic signature of damped Lyman alpha systems: using the D-index to screen for high column density H I absorbers
- Author(s)
- Ellison, Sara L.; Murphy, Michael T.; Dessauges-Zavadsky, Miroslava
- Abstract
- Using a sample of 21 damped Lyman alpha systems (DLAs) and 35 sub-DLAs, we evaluate the D-index from high-resolution spectra of the Mg ii λ 2796 profile. This sample represents an increase in the sub-DLA statistics by a factor of 4 over the original D-index sample. We investigate various techniques to define the velocity spread (Δv) of the Mg ii line to determine an optimal D-index for the identification of DLAs. The success rate of DLA identification is 50-55 per cent, depending on the velocity limits used, improving by a few per cent when the column density of Fe ii is included in the D-index calculation. We recommend the set of parameters that are judged to be most robust, have a combination of high DLA identification rate (57 per cent) and low DLA miss rate (6 per cent) and most cleanly separate the DLAs and sub-DLAs (Kolmogorov-Smirnov probability 0.5 per cent). These statistics demonstrate that the D-index is the most efficient technique for selecting low-redshift DLA candidates: 65 per cent more efficient than selecting DLAs based on the equivalent widths of Mg ii and Fe ii alone. We also investigate the effect of resolution on determining the N(H i) of sub-DLAs. We convolve echelle spectra of sub-DLA Lyα profiles with Gaussians typical of the spectral resolution of instruments on the Hubble Space Telescope and compare the best-fitting N(H i) values at both the resolutions. We find that the fitted H i column density is systematically overestimated by ∼0.1 dex in the moderate-resolution spectra compared to the best fits to the original echelle spectra. This offset is due to blending of nearby Lyα clouds that are included in the damping wing fit at low resolution.

Grandma always used full-fat mayo and sour cream, but for anyone wanting lower fat I'm giving you a reduced fat version that uses half fat-free Greek Yogurt, one fourth light sour cream, and one fourth mayo. (For those who don't like mayo, you might prefer From-Scratch Diet-Friendly Ranch-Style Dip with Greek Yogurt and Dill, which is another variation of my Grandma Denny's Dip.)
I always use the full-fat mayo for flavor (even in the lower-fat version), but you can use light mayo if you want to make it even lower in fat. For South Beach Dieters, I love to eat this with vegetables like celery, jicama, sugar snap peas, bell pepper strips, radishes, broccoli, and cauliflower for phase one, and it's great with carrots or sweet potato fries for phase two or three.
(Grandma Denny's From Scratch Ranch-Style Vegetable Dip was updated January 2015 and featured as a Five Ingredient recipe for Five Ingredient Fridays.)
sweet potato fries (I ate this over the weekend with my friend Robin and we thought the sugar snap peas were especially good with the dip, which Robin gave two thumbs up!)
Grandma Denny's Original Vegetable Dip
(Makes 2 cups dip, recipe from my Grandma Denny, who was a fantastic cook.)
1 cup full-fat sour cream (I like Daisy sour cream)
1 cup full-fat mayo
1 tsp. grated onion
2 tsp. dried dill weed
2 tsp. Bon Appetit Seasoning Salt
Grate onion into a bowl, using the large side of a box grater or flat grater (not a microplane grater.) Add all other ingredients to the bowl and stir together with a whisk (or you can use a food processor, but it's not necessary.) Chill an hour or so before serving. This will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks.
Lower-Fat Version of Grandma Denny's Vegetable Dip
(Makes 2 cups dip, original recipe from Grandma Denny; lower-fat version updated by Kalyn.)
1 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/2 cup mayo (or use light mayo for even less fat, but I like full-fat mayo for flavor in this)
1 tsp. grated onion (or more, I use at least 2 tsp.)
2 tsp. dried dill weed
2 tsp. Bon Appetit Seasoning Salt, Beau Monde Seasoning, or Trocomare Seasoning
Grate onion into a bowl, using the large side of a box grater or flat grater (not a microplane.) Add all other ingredients to the bowl and stir together with a whisk (or you can use a food processor, but it's not necessary.) Chill an hour or so before serving. This will keep in the refrigerator for several weeks.
Note: If you don't want to grate the onion you could use onion powder (not onion salt.) However, Grandma always used fresh onion and so do I, even though it does make your fingers smell rather bad!
South Beach Diet / Low-Carb Diet Suggestions:
Eat with low-carb vegetables like celery, sugar snap peas, jicama, bell pepper strips, radishes, broccoli, or cauliflower for Phase One or other low-carb diets. If you're not so concerned about carbs or for phase two or three, this is also great with carrots or sweet potato fries.

I chose the South Beach Diet to manage my weight partly so I wouldn't have to count calories, carbs, points, or fat grams, but if you want nutritional information for a recipe, I recommend entering the recipe into Calorie Count, which will calculate it for you.

- The cost of audit qualifications: the role of non-audit services
- Author(s)
- Houghton, K. A.; Jubb, C. A.
- Abstract
- This study argues that the incremental audit production costs associated with issuing a qualified opinion are difficult for public accounting firms to recoup through audit fees alone. It proposes that audit production costs associated with qualifications may be recouped through non-audit service (NAS) fees in addition to audit fees. Further, it proposes that such recoupment follows a differential timing pattern. Audit fees, because of their more constrained nature, are more likely to be elevated as a consequence of qualification presence in the year subsequent to the qualification. On the other hand, NAS fees, by virtue of their very nature and more flexible billing opportunities provided, are likely to be so affected in the year concurrent with the qualification. The research is based on Australian data, as there are few jurisdictions in the world that require disclosure of both audit and non-audit fees. Using a sample of 270 companies, a significant and positive association is found between the presence of an audit qualification and significantly higher fees paid. This relationship holds both in the case of an audit qualification contemporaneous with the fee charged, and of one occurring in the year preceding the disclosed fee(s). The effect on audit fees, however, occurs only on a lagged opinion basis, while the effect on NAS fees occurs only on a concurrent opinion basis.

We have recieved several reports regarding crash in the Cclaw.exe component. This crash message typically looks like this:
An unexpected error occured in Norman Virus Control
Module : cclaw.exe

Time Stamp: Jan 12 2005
Error Code : 00000079
Error Tect : Mutex Timeout
Module: CCLAW:EXE

Time Stamp: Jan 12 2005
Error Code: 00000001
Error text: Invalid function
Note! Despite of this error message, NVC will still protect your system. It's more an annoyance than a security problem.
Due to the significant number of malware signatures added to the definition files the last few months, the memory requirement for Norman Virus Control has increased. We now recommend at least 128MB RAM, preferrably 256 MB RAM. If you are not able to fulfill the preferred RAM requirement, or if you despite of fulfilling it still experience cclaw.exe crashes, you should try one or more of the following procedures in an attempt to solve the problem:
Norman Internet Protection (NIP) is the module responsible for scanning mail, news and MSN traffic. This module gives an extra layer of protection. However, should malware somehow slip through NIP, the On-Access scanner will work as a second protection layer that will prevent the malware from infecting the system. This means that NIP can be deactivated without compromising system security. By deactivating NIP the total memory use of NVC will be decreased.
There is a high probability that your computer is running active programs that does not need to be active. While these programs are active they will occupy some of the system memory. To free up memory used by such programs, use the following procedure:
Note! Norman is working with high priority on a project that aims to dramatically reduce the memory requirement of NVC.

Barren Earth's debut was brilliant. Not perfect, but diverse and energetic with every song coming across as unique and satisfying in one way or another. With The Devil's Resolve however, it is completely the opposite. The album feels watered down and uninspired while being polluted by the clean vocals and too much keyboard abuse. "Disappointing" is an understatement.

"Stories" drew critical praise and a 1997 Pulitzer Prize nomination following it's world première at Costa Mesa's South Coast Repertory. Happily, in director Gilbert Cates' current Los Angeles production at the Geffen Playhouse, the play's intelligence and emotional power remain intact.
"Stories" takes place almost entirely in the book-lined Greenwich Village apartment of Ruth Steiner (played by Linda Lavin). She's sixtyish and a bit prickly -- an accomplished fiction writer who lives alone. Lisa Morrison (Samantha Mathis) is her promising young graduate student, an ambitious writer-in-the-making who comes to Steiner for a tutorial.
We've seen this before, of course -- the dance between an irascible older mentor and the bright-eyed disciple, and so we know from the outset that these two impassioned artists -- one dominant and aging, the other on the rise -- will inevitably clash as their relationship deepens and changes.
What makes this familiar setup fresh and involving is Margulies' wise, funny, wry dialogue and Lavin's strong performance. While "Stories" is principally concerned with how artistic passions can propel and destroy intimate relationships, the play is truly about a number of subjects, both large and small, which Margulies has great fun exploring: the writer's morally iffy creative need to cannibalize friends' lives for material, the power of regret, even the reasons behind our gossip-obsessed pop culture. All of it is discussed with zip and arch intelligence.

Holiday Food Safety Tips
No one likes getting food poisoning, but while it can mean a few days of vomiting and/or diarrhea for most people, it can be much more serious during pregnancy. Excessive vomiting and diarrhea can cause dangerous dehydration, and some of the culprit bacteria can cross the placenta and harm your baby. So take the following precautions with the food you eat this holiday season to keep you and your baby safe.
Cooking Tips
When preparing holiday meals, be sure you defrost meat in the refrigerator, not at room temperature, and cook the meat well. For turkey, a thermometer inserted between the thigh and the breast should read 180 degrees F to ensure all dangerous bacteria have been killed.
The FDA suggests the following tips to reduce the risk of foodborne illness this holiday season:
Clean – Wash your hands and any surfaces that come into contact with food often. Bacteria can be spread via cutting boards, knives, sponges, and counter tops. Use a solution of one teaspoon of bleach to one gallon of water to disinfect surfaces and sponges. Use a fresh paper towel to wipe off hands and surfaces instead of a dish towel, which can harbor and spread bacteria.
Separate – Avoid cross-contamination, especially with raw meat, poultry and seafood. Keep these foods and their juices away from other foods that do not require cooking (such as vegetables). Always store these foods on the lowest shelf in the refrigerator so their juices do not drip down onto other food.
Cook – Always cook food to a safe internal temperature. This will ensure that any harmful bacteria are killed and the meat is safe. Use a reliable food thermometer to measure the temperature and make sure you take the reading from the thickest part of the food. Click here to find out to what temperature you should cook different types of meat.
Chill – Refrigerate food immediately to prevent the growth of bacteria. Be sure your refrigerator is set to 40 degrees F and your freezer is set to 0 degrees F. Periodically check the temperature of your settings with a thermometer.
Foods to Avoid
To keep you and your baby healthy this holiday season, avoid the following foods:
Undercooked or raw eggs - Raw or lightly-cooked eggs because dangerous bacteria, such as salmonella, listeria, toxoplasma, and E. coli, may be present that can cross the placenta and harm your baby (not to mention making you very sick for several days). This includes raw cookie dough (even commercially-made); unpasteurized, homemade eggnog; and hollandaise, aioli and béarnaise sauces.

Iowa lawyer with gambling problem disbarred
A Cedar Rapids attorney with a gambling problem has been disbarred.
The Gazette reports that documents filed last week with the Iowa Supreme Court say Susan Hense had taken $800,000 from client accounts for her "gambling addiction."
Hense had been in practice since September 1996. She admitted to the misconduct and didn't fight disbarment. Hense says in an affidavit that she regretted "beyond my ability to describe, my theft of funds belonging to my clients."
Hense admitted to her gambling problem and said she hadn't gambled since entering treatment in October.
No criminal charges have been filed against Hense so far.

My 10 month old wakes up at least once during the night sometimes more. I don't think its bc she is hungry bc seconds after latching on shes back to sleep but if I try to free myself she wakes back up and will not settle back down until i let her latch back on. Since I work I usually put her in the bed with me when she wakes up for this feeding so i can get some sleep.
Wondering if maybe I have just started a bad habit of getting into "mommy's bed" any suggestions on how to wean this night time feeding. I am also attempting to cut one of the three pumping sessions I do at work and one afternoon feedings at home. My goal is to wean completely at 12 months. So any suggestions on this would also be helpful.

Sanders giving two thumbs up to new documentaryAP File Photo
Sen. Bernard Sanders, I-Vt., will host a screening of a new documentary about financial inequality Sunday morning in South Burlington.
Robert Reich is the star of a new movie. And Bernie Sanders probably could have written the script.
This weekend, the two men will host a screening of Reichs new documentary, Inequality for All. Reich and Sanders have been preaching the same progressive gospel for years. And Reich says the message finally seems to be resonating.
In the 30 or more years that Ive been working on this problem, I have not seen more action and discussion, Reich said by phone from California on Friday. Even the president is talking about this as the defining challenge of our time.
Reich is an economist, professor and political commentator who spent fours as secretary of labor under President Bill Clinton. Hell appear by phone at the Palace 9 Cinemas in South Burlington on Sunday, where Sanders is inviting people to watch the move for free, and participate in a discussion about it afterward.
Reich says the 400 richest people in America now have as much wealth as the bottom 150 million put together, and he says the income gap hasnt been this severe since the 1920s. He says the trend threatens the fundamentals of the U.S. economy.
The vast middle class and working class and poor dont have enough purchasing power to keep the economy going, Reich says. And thats one reason why this recovery has been so lackluster and so anemic relative to previous recoveries.
Reich and Sanders are advocating for a list of policy reforms they say will rectify the imbalance. Reich says raising the minimum wage and expanding the earned income tax credit will deliver immediate financial relief to citizens on the bottom rungs of the economic ladder. He says increasing taxes on the wealthy will underwrite the public investments needed to lift the underclass.
But Reich says getting money out of politics and overturning the Supreme Courts Citizens United decision are also necessary steps in the reformation of the American economy.
When so much income and wealth is concentrated in so few hands, our democracy is undermined, because almost inevitably, with money goes political power, he says.
The ideological battle over economic theory isnt confined to national politics. In Vermont, some Democratic and Progressive lawmakers are pushing for higher taxes on the wealthy. But theyve been rebuffed so far by Democratic Gov. Peter Shumlin, who says rich people will flee the state if Vermont goes after their wealth.
Reich says states like Vermont have to balance concerns over competitiveness against the benefits of propelling change.
No state wants to make itself uncompetitive by raising its costs too high relative to other states, Reich says. And yet, we can to some extent create a race to the top rather than a race to the bottom.

Leon said you couldn't truly qualify to graduate unless you had passed the "initiation" test. "They can give you the paper but it won't mean a thing unless you can prove you are ready," is exactly how he put it. He was the oldest brother and naturally a lot more worldly than the rest of us.
The 2010 census is so important to the city of Quincy that Jack McLean, city manager, formed a census committee among department heads last Thursday.
"This is critical to the city. We have to make sure people are counted. I feel one of the reasons that Quincy has not gotten its fair share of state and federal funds is that people were not counted properly in 2000," he said.
In the months that followed Hurricane Katrina, I had the opportunity to interview several people who had fled New Orleans. None of them planned to return.
I can't say that I blame them.
But it would be very difficult to leave your home, especially if it's all you've ever known, and move elsewhere to start all over.
I've seen coverage of New Orleans and other areas since that storm proclaiming the fact that many of those areas have been slow to recover, particularly the Big Easy.
Listen guys, I got the break of the century this past week. My wife quit teaching! After 35 years, she retired. I was never so happy in my life. You have no idea what I have had to live through.
She taught fifth grade for years. I would sit down at the dinner table after a long day ready to just relax and eat my peas and cornbread in the solace of my own home. "I'm worried about Johnny. He's falling behind in math. I've tried to help him after school but he seems distracted."
I was recently watching one of those news programs on cable, and they had a live call-in bit going. The question they posed was this: "If your local newspaper went away, would you miss it?"
People called in, e-mailed and twittered their responses. For the most part, at least while I was watching, people were saying they would definitely miss their local paper.
I don't see anything wrong with the proposed youth protection ordinance. In essence, the ordinance calls for a curfew and does not allow minors (people under 17 years old who have not been emancipated) to hang out between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
The ordinance is partially the result of citizen complaints about kids roaming the streets at night, fighting and loitering around businesses. Police chief Ferman Richardson said the ordinance is also intended to protect minors from victimization and criminal activity as well as promote parental control and responsibility.
I discovered the wonderful month of June when I was 7 years old. We finished cutting out George and Abe's heads in Miss Carolyn Blades' first grade class in the middle of February. That was OK. But March must not have been a good month for presidents. We just did arithmetic and reading, and every Friday we lined up for those gosh-awful spelling contests. May was no better and it began to get insufferably hot in that small class room.
"When does this thing end?"
When you take a look at fingerprints closely, it's easy to see two things: everyone has them and each person's prints are unique.
Using fingerprints as fodder for a lesson for both themselves and the children they served last week, 17 teens and their leaders, a total of about 22 people, embarked on a unique mission to serve their community and their Lord.
Mike Park, minister of students, said the youth at First Baptist Church in Quincy wanted to do something locally to help their own community.
Helping someone in need can be as easy as slinging a hammer – just ask any of the youth from Thomas Memorial Baptist Church or First Presbyterian Church in Quincy.
The two youth groups, along with a group from First United Methodist Church in Niceville, worked last week on projects in Gretna and Havana. The groups, a total of about 70, all stayed together at Centenary Camp in Gadsden County, and were divided into work teams of about 10-12 students, plus some adults, each day.
Robert F. Munroe Day School utility player Sam Young signed a grant in aid this week to play baseball at Andrew College in Cuthbert, Ga. Young was a 4-year starter for the Bobcats and played all nine positions. This season he batted .378 with 20 RBIs and a slugging percentage of .480. Bobcat baseball coach, Mike Troelstrup, said Young was a valuable team leader, a talented utility player and possessed a tremendous work ethic. Shown here are Young with his parents, Tommy and Julie Young, RFM headmaster Jimmy Harris and Munroe baseball coach Mike Troelstrup.

Until 7:00 p.m. April 13, 2002
Fremd High School
physics teacher and science department chair Robert
Grimm says that his vision for education focuses on
doing whatever is necessary to ensure that students
succeed not just within the classroom, but within the
community as well.
believes that one of the greatest tools available to
help students learn is other students. "One person
may have an initial seed of an idea, but it is through
the scrutiny of others that the idea grows more useful."
his term as Illinois Teacher of the Year, Grimm will
have plenty of opportunities to test this philosophy
as he works with teachers, students, administrators,
and community members.
is a 23-year veteran who began his career because he
found he thrived when working with others in group settings
or as partners. He decided that if he could help others
learn in the same manner he could make a difference
in many lives. He was chosen as Teacher of the Year
from among 14 outstanding finalists for the Illinois
State Board of Education's Those Who Excel awards program.
Bob and about 290 other excellent educators, school
staff, parents and community volunteers were honored
April 13th as part of the 28th
annual event.
Teacher of the Year, Grimm will spend the 2002 fall
semester speaking at teacher workshops, educational
conferences and civic and community meetings. He will
also receive a lifetime tuition waiver to state universities
and a one-semester paid leave to pursue graduate work
or develop an educational project that will benefit
schools across the state.
addition, he will represent Illinois at the NASA Space
Camp in Huntsville, Alabama, and in the National Teacher
of the Year program sponsored by the Council of Chief
State School Officers and Scholastic, Inc.
of Bob's caliber are the reason Illinois education continues
to improve," said State Superintendent of Education
Respicio Vazquez. "His dedication to helping his
students learn, coupled with his own commitment to continuous
learning make him an educator to emulate."
became interested in education as a profession while
he studied science. An experience with one of his physics
professors sealed that decision and helped launch Bob's
career. He moved back to Illinois after teaching at
an inner city school in Pontiac City, Michigan.
says that one of the most important things he learned
early in his career was to listen to veteran educators.
Bob learned early-on how much impact mentors could have
on a young teacher.
lessons have helped him recognize how students gain
understanding through the strength of other students.
Bob has his students work in small groups and take active
and leading roles in discussions-strategies he says
have helped every student to achieve.
Shirley Mertz explains one of the ways Bob connects
students. "Building Construction is an applied
technology course in which a team of 15 students build
a home from the ground up. Bob brings students with
a theoretical perspective, such as physics, together
with students proficient in applying knowledge in real-life
situations. Theory and practice come together as all
the students work in pairs to wire 120-volt circuts."
has cultivated a business partnership with Motorola
that has opened yet more doors for his students to expand
their knowledge. Several projects have been initiated
through this partnership, including astronomy classes
that use an "antenna dish" to see NASA television
and Earth Science classes using a weather station on
the roof so weather can be charted. Motorola engineers
and executives regularly visit the school to hear and
see power point presentations by the students who are
conducting consumer product testing on new walkie-talkie
lines produced by Motorola.
1984 Bob was named the Illinois High School Physics
Teacher of the Year." In 1991 he received the "Presidential
Award for Excellence in Science Teaching." He has
written numerous articles and publications pertaining
to the field of science.
and his wife, Tracey, have two sons, Chris and Mike.
They live in Arlington Heights.

The real normJanuary 15,2014
The real norm
With the latest paltry employment statistics, it is apparent the Great Recession is continuing. This, despite governmental finagling (lies) about unemployment and under-employment figures, to make the situation seem better than it is. The increasing disparity of wealth between the rich and poor has prompted commentators to call this the New Golden Age. But this new age of skewed wealth is not an anomaly a deviation from the norm but the actual norm in the 250 years of American life.
The real anomaly was the 35 years of relative economic equality between the New Deal years with its progressive legislation, and the 70s when it all began to fall apart as the income of the working class began to stagnate and the plutocrats gleefully gathered in the surplus profits. To believe in the American Dream, as George Carlin sardonically put it, you have to be asleep!
Even our deified leaders of the past supported the idea of a wealthy elite ruling over us and felt deep distrust of the mass of ordinary citizens. Thats us, folks you and me. James Madison stated that the primary responsibility of government is to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority. Those without property, or the hope of acquiring it, cannot be expected to sympathize sufficiently with its rights. Sounds exactly like what the Koch brothers would say. Or as John Jay, the first chief justice of the Supreme Court, put it, The people who own the country ought to govern it.
Alexander Hamilton declared that the people are a great beast that must be tamed. Rebellious and independent farmers had to be taught, sometimes by force, that the ideals of the revolutionary pamphlets were not to be taken too seriously.
A century ago John Dewey, the great American philosopher and educator born in Burlington, wrote: Democracy has little content when big business rules the life of the country through its control of the means of production, exchange, publicity, transportation and communication, reinforced by command of the press and other means of propaganda. He could have written that the day before yesterday. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, President Obama, Gov. Shumlin and all the other legislative lackeys who have been bought and paid for by campaign contributions from the corporate mafia.

Nurses aid arrested for theft on pain patches
September 4, 2012 —
The Sullivan County Sheriff's Office has concluded a two month investigation into the theft of narcotic pain patches from patients at the Sullivan County Adult Care Center in Liberty.
On Wednesday August 29, 2012, Sheriff's Detectives arrested 37 year old Robin Nash, a nurse's aid, of Neversink, NY, and charged her with larceny, criminal possession of a controlled substance, and tampering with evidence. Supervisors at the County's nursing home alerted deputies in late June when they noticed Fentanyl patches missing from several patients at the facility.
Fentanyl is a powerful narcotic pain killer that is applied as a patch to the skin, and absorbed by the body. The medicine is typically prescribed to cancer patients. When medical staff applied the patches and later went to retrieve them from patients, the patches were missing.
"As the investigation progressed, Robin Nash became a person of interest", said Sheriff's Chief of Patrol Blake Muthig. Nash was picked up last Wednesday and while being questioned in the detectives' office, attempted to swallow a piece of Fentanyl patch that she still had in her possession. Nash admitted to stealing 25 Fentanyl patches over the last 2 years. Nash was released on her own recognizance pending a September 13, 2012 appearance in the Town of Liberty Justice court.
Sheriff Mike Schiff said that this investigation illustrates the seriousness of our society's prescription drug abuse problem.
