Almaty's rather rural-sounding name means 'apple rich' — after the renowned quality and variety of the region's apples. The reality, however, is rather different. Almaty Kazakhstan is the commercial and cultural hotspot of Central Asia, ready to make its mark on the tourist map.
In 1911, a catastrophic earthquake flattened the city. Only the Svyato Voznesenskiy (Zenkov) Cathedral stayed standing. This 54 m (180ft) high edifice is one of the most extraordinary wooden buildings in the world — it was made entirely without nails! It stands, gaudily painted like a giant dolls' house and surrounded by roses, in the 28 Panfilov Heroes Memorial Park in the city centre.
The main Zelyoni Bazaar is more than just a market; it is a cultural hotchpotch of produce and people from all over Central Asia. Artists display their work in Zhybek Zholy (Silk Road), known locally as Arbat. For a superb view of the city and mountains, take the cable car up to Kok-tube (Blue Hill), or walk up past the marijuana fields. Look out for Hotel Kazakhstan, a 102 m (335 ft) high modernist tower, the tallest building in the city, and the Central Mosque, built in 1999, a wonderfully elegant marble building with a huge blue dome.
The traffic is terrible — ageing cars rattle past in a cloud of exhaust fumes. But change is happening fast and things are improving all the time. Almaty Kazakhstan is a city of pride, ingenuity and ambition, with a vibrant Asian arts and fusion music scene and a cosmopolitan population, poised to play its part on the international stage.
1,226.000 (2005)
Extreme climate. April to June or September and October.
Ito Voice of Asia' is an annual international music festival held every August in the Medal stadium. Almaty will host the 2011 Asian Winter Games and only narrowly lost its bid for the 2014 Winter Olympics.

If you have quadruped friends, they do allow large pets.
The condo's have stunning features such as large windows, high
ceilings, and open floor plans. In the mornings you can have coffee
out on the balcony and take in the beautiful view.

Thank you drew. beautiful.
After decades of working with first responders, it's only what is expected. Gee, those "government scabs"do tend to show up when needed, and even the volunteers are trained and supported through "government", so , maybe some folks should use this lesson as a lesson in what "government" REALLY means. CAn't help but think of all the 'toons condemning "tax day" and the "evil government".

Last year's Coronation Street episode featuring a lesbian kiss did not breach standards, the Broadcasting Standards Authority has ruled.
In the episode, screened at 5.30pm in October by TV One, characters Sophie Webster, a religious schoolgirl, and her friend Sian Powers share a kiss.
It was the first time the programme, which used to screen at 7.30pm, had been shown in its earlier time slot.
Within an hour, TVNZ had received angry calls.
Complaints alleging the scene breached standards of good taste and decency, responsible programming and children's interests and standards relating to controversial issues were laid with the authority.
Yesterday, the authority ruled in favour of TVNZ.
Members said they were satisfied the kissing scene was not unsuitable for any unsupervised child viewers.
"The mere fact that the kiss was between two women does not make it less acceptable."
Media commentator Martin Gillman said those who were offended by the kiss "are probably a little narrow minded".
"Soap opera is there to reflect the normal day-to-day life ... and that sort of thing happens in people's lives."

{if segment_3 == 'live_timing'}{/if} {if segment_3 == 'live'}{/if}
The fifth week of the photo of the year competition produced the biggest winning margin so far in the contest, with over 50% of the votes going to a photo showing the undeniable serenity one athlete found before racing.
The shot of Fabienne St. Louis sitting with her feet folded under her, eyes closed and her head tilted towards the sky generated a feeling of peaceful Zen. Her yoga-esque calm pose is juxtaposed against athletes continuing their pre-race prep, imaginably full of nerves and anxious energy as triathlons are apt to produce.
Her strong and still body transmits a powerful sentiment of comfort amongst chaos. It's as if she is giving thanks to the triathlon gods for the ability to race, reminding the viewer the significance triathlon holds in their own life.
Here are the setting photographer Janos Schmidt used to take the photo:
Camera: Nikon D3S
Exposure: f3.5, 1/1600
Lens: 70-200mm
In stark contradiction, the second most popular photo this week was of Richard Murray's jubilant celebration after winning his very first ITU World Triathlon title. In this shot, Murray thanks the triathlon gods in a very different way – but literally jumping for joy with ecstatic glee.
Final Result
The fourth installment of the Photo of the Year contest was a tight battle for much of the week. But in a last-minute come from behind win, Igor Polyanskiy's shot exiting the water won the contest.
The ITU World Triathlon Madrid, which twists and winds through beautiful Casa de Campo Park, always elicits great shots. Check out this week's favourite photo now.
In this week's Photo of the Year competition, Manny Huerta (USA) received an overwhelming 1/3 of the votes. On that day in San Diego, Huerta punched his ticket to London as the second-fastest American to finish in the top-9.
With such a large amount of stunning imagery, opinions and votes were pretty divided this week. In the end the week's winner in the photo of the year series won by just 5% of votes.

Retails $220 and cheapest I found online was $150.

March 05, 2012 – A powerful yet easy-to-use HD movie editor has today launched for individuals wanting to create and share high-quality videos of special moments like family holidays, weddings and a baby's first steps. MoviePlus X6, the latest version from award-winning creative software developer Serif, allows entry-level users and enthusiasts to create movies faster and easier than ever before – whether the footage has been captured on a camcorder, DSLR or compact camera, smart phone or other pocket recording device.
"More and more people of all ages and abilities, particularly parents, hobbyists and students, are creating movies to share with friends and family," says Gary Bates, Managing Director at Serif. "And much of this is due to the increased availability of devices capable of recording video such as the iPhone®, BlackBerry® and Android™ smartphones. In fact, research released by The NPD Group* shows that 35% of video is captured on a mobile phone, compared with 34% on a camera and 27% on a camcorder."
MoviePlus X6 includes QuickMovie Studio, a new feature for quickly and easily creating movies in an instant. Users simply select from one of 20 professionally-designed themes, perfect for weddings, birthdays and more, and import their own videos and photos. Each theme contains customisable titles and credits plus matching transitions and effects. Music can be added too – users can select their own or choose from a library of tracks in the program.
"You don't need to have video editing experience to use QuickMovie Studio, or own a top of the range PC or laptop to edit footage. It's quick and easy to import video clips and photos, personalise elements and choose background music. Exporting your polished movie is simple too – whether you want to playback your movie on popular hardware devices or upload onto social networking sites."
Other new features in MoviePlus X6 include the Video File Converter for easily converting video files, or batches of files, from one format to another and a re-designed Properties pane for a faster workflow. New colour and lighting adjustments allow users to adjust white balance, vibrancy, exposure, shadows and clarity to their movie clips and still images. Further creative effects can be applied using the new 3D Adjustment Tool – users can flip, reverse, and spin their movies along any axis. The new version also allows users to upload their work directly to Facebook.
MoviePlus' legacy features will continue to impress users who want to make stunning movies in minutes and, with the program's improved UI, it's now even easier to use. Videos can be imported from anywhere (MoviePlus is compatible with all popular video file types) and edited using the program's two editing modes. Storyboard mode is an easy-to-use workspace for beginners wanting to produce simple projects and slideshows, while Timeline mode offers advanced control and precision, allowing more experienced users to arrange media over unlimited tracks.
For those who want to put their creativity into action, there are over 200 studio-quality effects and transitions to make something truly personalised and unique. Finished videos can be burned to DVD, AVCHD DVD or Blu-ray Disc™, complete with a personalised menu, and there are export pre-sets for popular gadgets including iPod, iPad and Android devices. Users can upload movies directly to YouTube™, and Facebook.
MoviePlus X6 is compatible with Windows 7/Vista/XP and retails at £61.27 (inc. VAT). It is available from Serif at www.serif.com/movieplus and from major retailers including Amazon and PC World. Existing MoviePlus users should contact 0800 376 7070 for further information on upgrade pricing.

Fedora Starts Cloud Working Group
The Fedora project has put together a special interest group (SIG) dedicated to implementing Linux distros in cloud computing.
The Fedora Cloud SIG set up a mailing list as a drop-in center for all those interested in the SIG. The inspiration came from Greg DeKoenigsberg, senior community architect at Red Hat.
One of the first messages on the mailing list was from DeKoenigsberg himself, who suggested a definite goal for the group for the immediate future: creating a high-performing Fedora image for Amazon's EC2 cloud computing service. The most recent Fedora kernel running on EC2 is version 8, which "gives Fedora a bad name." He suggests instead getting the Fedora release process to integrate EC2 image creation.
Meanwhile the group is appealing to all in the Fedora community interested in cloud computing and EC2. Under circumstances the cloud infrastructure could play a role in Fedora's internal development: DeKoenigsberg suggests creating a test account for those involved.

Boro have renewed belief
Craig Chisnall thinks Middlesbrough can build on their win at the weekend in the Sky Bet Championship and beat Nottingham Forest.
- Related Content
There must have been some relief at the Riverside Stadium on Saturday when Middlesbrough saw off Ipswich.
Not only did it end their seven-game winless run, they scored their first goal in more than 12 hours and Danny Graham, who had netted just once in 14 months, bagged both in the 2-0 win.
The on-loan Sunderland striker, now in his second spell with Boro, had been linked with Tuesday's opponents Nottingham Forest in January and will be desperate to show them what they are missing out on.
- 1pt Middlesbrough to beat Nottingham Forest at 31/20 (BetVictor) - Boro finally back to winning ways at the weekend while Forest are in danger of imploding.
- 2pts Rotherham to beat Oldham at 6-4 (William Hill) - the Millers, with the benefit of a rest at the weekend, are unbeaten in ten while Oldham are on the slide.
- 1pt York to beat Mansfield at 15/8 (bet365, BetVictor and PaddyPower) - Nigel Worthington's side are in play-off contention and too big to ignore at Mansfield.
Their chronic lack of goals in recent months has probably put paid to their hopes of a late charge for the play-offs but they have improved since Aitor Karanka took the reins in November.
Jose Mourinho's former assistant at Real Madrid has really tightened them up at the back and they have now kept clean sheets in five of their last eight matches.
So with the above in mind I'm going with them to add to promotion-chasing Nottingham Forest's woes.
Forest's season is in danger of falling off a cliff with Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Barnsley their third on the spin.
Billy Davies, currently serving a touchline ban, has also lost several key figures to injuries of late and must be looking nervously over his shoulder with Brighton and Wigan both having games in hand.
Boro are offered at 31/20 with BetVictor and I will be investing.
In League One, Rotherham look the team to get on as they head to Oldham after the luxury of a weekend off.
The high-flying Millers were due to face fellow in-form side Sheffield United on Saturday but the Blades were of course on FA Cup quarter-final duty.
But having won seven in their ten-game unbeaten run the visitors will be chomping at the bit for the trip to struggling Oldham.
Steve Evans' side have been one of the most entertaining teams to watch since the turn of the year and only Leyton Orient's haul of 68 goals betters the Millers total of 64.
Ten of their 17 victories this term have also come on the road and they will fancy their chances heading to Boundary Park, where the Latics have already seven times.
Lee Johnson's men were seen off by Preston, in our favour, at the weekend and they are now just three points above the drop zone. Go with the Millers at 6-4 with William Hill.
My outsider for the midweek action is on an away win at Field Mill again as in-form York head to Mansfield.
The Stags were comprehensively seen off at a big price by Bury recently and have already lost seven matches on their own patch.
Saturday's win over Newport put some breathing distance between themselves and the bottom two but that won't bother York.
Nigel Worthington's side climbed to ninth with a 1-0 win over Wimbledon at the weekend and they've now tasted victory in four of their last six matches.
The improvement has been built on their rock-solid defence that has conceded just two goals in that period.
They are now just four points behind faltering Southend in the final play-off place and another win here would really set out their ambitions. I'm going with them at 15-8, which is offered by bet365, BetVictor and Paddy Power.

Pendleton - The Pendleton Town Council has started exploring the idea at a new town police station after two council members expressed concern with the current shop.
At the regularly scheduled council meeting March 7, board member John Armington said after visiting the station, he felt it was time for new digs.
"I've been visiting the chief at his offices," Armington said. "And I think it's time we take a good, hard look at what they're subject to."

Lawrence open for 2013-'14
NEW MATAMORAS – Lawrence Elementary School will remain open, with kindergartners joining first- and second-graders in a single class, for the 2013-14 school year, Frontier Local Superintendent Bruce Kidder said Thursday.
How long that – and the overall makeup of the district – continues will be determined at least in part by the outcome of a November property tax levy, the precise amount of which will be determined at July's board of education meeting.
"The structure of the schools right now is fine, and I hope to see it stay this way," board President Justin Hoff said at the close of Thursday's regular board meeting in the Frontier High School library. "But without this levy, something's going to change."
The board and administration have been discussing options for Lawrence in recent months, including closing the school outright as was proposed two years ago or transitioning it to a district-sponsored charter school. Uncertainty over state funding delayed a decision, and now district officials say the school will continue to operate much as it did this year.
But Lawrence Principal Bill Creighton is moving to the high school after high school Principal Jack Mental's contract was not renewed in a cost-cutting move. Creighton split time between Lawrence and serving as an assistant principal at the high school in the school year just ended. For 2013-14, Kidder will handle most of the administrative responsibilities at Lawrence.
"Hopefully, it'll run smoothly," Kidder said. "If not, you can call me. I'll either be the principal or the superintendent."
The school divided grades one through six between three classrooms this year, with a fourth teacher providing support. For the new year, kindergartners will be added to the first- and second-grade class.
Lawrence supporters convinced the board to return kindergarten to the school on the eve of the 2011-12 school year, saying its loss would only seal the fate of the school, facing closure after that year. The school remained open but without a kindergarten for 2012-13.
Kidder has previously said returning kindergarten to Lawrence could help the school build up enrollment and help it be successful as a charter.
"I don't really care what the numbers are; we are going to have kindergarten there one way or another," he said Thursday.
That's welcome news to Ludlow Township resident Milton Eddy, 36, who has a child starting kindergarten at Lawrence this year.
"We're glad it's back there," he said.
Looking toward November, the board approved three separate resolutions Thursday allowing district officials to request millage amounts from the Washington County Auditor's Office for five-year, emergency levies to generate $500,000, $550,000 or $600,000 a year. Kidder said the school funding picture is becoming clearer as the General Assembly works to finalize the biennial budget bill, but things could still change if Gov. John Kasich chooses to exercise his line-item veto powers.
"At our next board meeting, we should be able to know (what) our money will be," Treasurer Frank Antill said.
At that July 15 session, the board is expected to vote to place one of the three amounts on the general election ballot.
District officials have said failure to pass a levy would result in changes for more than just Lawrence, with one possibility being the closing of either New Matamoras or Newport Elementary.
The uncertainty over how much money to seek is a result of efforts to develop a new state funding system for schools. Kasich proposed a formula earlier this year that would have left the amount of funding Frontier receives from the state flat at $5,190,054 over the course of the two-year budget. Changes made in the House of Representatives would have boosted the district's state assistance by 6 percent each year, Kidder said.
What they are expecting now is about 2 percent more in fiscal year 2014 and less than 1 percent more in fiscal year 2015, he said.
"We're not in the hole yet. We're going to make it through next year," Kidder said.
For the current fiscal year, the district spent about $600,000 more than it took in, eating into the $1.5 million cash carryover the district brought into fiscal year 2013. Kidder said he does not anticipate quite that big a deficit in the coming year, due to staffing reductions, including the rehiring of two employees – high school science teacher Tina Albrecht and Newport elementary special needs teacher Betty Neader.
Under the district's labor agreement with teachers, rehired retirees come back at the bottom of the salary scale, although they still get credit for their level of education. They can only be signed to one-year contracts at a time.
"They get their retirement locked, and we get an experienced teacher at a starting teacher's salary," Kidder said.
Changes to the State Teachers Retirement System have encouraged a number of educators to retire this year or face a five-year period with no cost-of-living increase.

Mallards issue 11 walks in 12-5 loss
Mallards score most of their runs in first two innings
The Madison Mallards head home to the "Duck Pond" after suffering a rough night in La Crosse Tuesday.
The Mallards gave up 11 walks as part of a 12-5 loss to the La Crosse Loggers.
The Mallards got four runs in the second inning, but couldn't sustain the momentum.
Mallards starter Greg Welsh gave up eight earned runs on seven hits and three walks in just 3 2/3 innings before being pulled from the game. Welsh fell to 5-2 and saw his ERA rise to 5.05.
Jeff Zahn knocked in two of the Mallards runs in the four-run second inning. John LaPrise, who extended his hitting streak to 12 games after a 1-for-4 day, knocked home the other two batters later to round out the Mallards scoring.
The Mallards return to the "Duck Pond" Wednesday for a game against the Green Bay Bullfrogs at 7:05 p.m. They will then travel to Green Bay on Friday to wrap up the three-game series.
Wednesday is Oscar Mayer Bacon Appreciation Night!

Wisconsin reports 1st cases of new swine flu strain
Two people infected had connection with Wisconsin State Fair
Wisconsin health officials have reported two cases of people infected with a new strain of swine flu.
Both people are connected to the Wisconsin State Fair -- a worker and a swine exhibitor.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported the exhibitor is an adolescent who lives in western Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services said the other infected individual, an adult from southeastern Wisconsin, did not report any direct contact with swine.
It's the first human cases of the new flu strain reported in Wisconsin.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported more than 150 cases of human infections in Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Hawaii and Michigan this summer.
The health services department said all of the cases occurred in persons exposed to or in proximity to pigs.

Yep, just rollin' naked in the crazy lately. Drunk birthday party Mom? Pretty sure she was sniffin' glue too. Their address doesn't exist on Google maps..& if Google can't find it, then it must not exist at all, right? So then I look up her name…that doesn't exist either. Now I'm wondering if I'm smoking crack, or if this family is full of mob stoolies in the witness protection program, with any & all references to them, real or otherwise, wiped from existence. Finally, I try a reverse lookup on her phone number…& I get her first name, with a different last name, & an address that's close to what she has provided, were it spelt correctly. By then I was just happy to have found it, managing to avoid another convoluted conversation with her on the phone. So I pull in the driveway, a few minutes after the designated time, & there, on the front porch, are half a dozen grown ups, smokin' & drinkin'! Seriously?! Now, I'm all for a good time…& some of our kid's birthday parties have just been big house parties with our family, friends, & all of their kids. But I have to say, not once did we include complete strangers…4 year old strangers at that…in these benders. That's a new one on me. And after 4 kids, I've seen one heck of a lot of birthday parties…difficult to surprise me anymore. However, as I said, been there, done that…aside from the strange 4 year olds…so who am I to judge? What I really couldn't wrap my head around was the ballsy way they were hangin' out, right there at the front door, for the whole world, & their parents dropping them off, to see. How much common sense does it take to keep that shit to the backyard?? Because if this had been my first born, at 4 years old, there's not a chance in hell I'd have left him there. Just ask The Lurker…she had the privilege of being my very first birthday party…& when I realized she expected me to walk away & leave my baby boy, (the frikkin' kid was 5, she probably thought I was sniffin' glue!), there at her house, "alone" with her, a virtual stranger at the time, admittedly, I was the one doing the lurking then…in her bushes, unable to relinquish him in to her care…& she wasn't drinkin' on the porch! First time Moms are a whole different breed of crazy. And as a matter of fact, I watched another mother, as I dropped off The Baby, go back & forth a few times, from her car to the house, fussing after her child…obviously her first given both her nervousness & the endless list of care instructions . Clearly she was wracked with anxiety about leaving her, likely made worse by the pumpin' patio party. Me? Definitely not my first kid…& a very independent, capable child. Who happened to have my cell phone number written on the entire length of her arm. After seeing the sheer number of people there, this was good insurance against her getting lost in the shuffle. Which, incidentally, the other parents & the hosts thought was a fantastic idea. Just one of many tricks you pick up when you have a mitt full of yard apes. And when I asked yet again, what time I should get her, I got a vague, "Oh, 5:30, 6:00.". Which was frikkin' ridiculous…I may be experienced enough to no longer fret over leaving my child at a stranger's party, but that same experience knows full well that 4 hours is just too much for a 4 year old attending a stranger's party…especially a party as large as this one was. And yes, I had some discomfort with the whole situation. As she yammered on about Batman & Tinkerbell coming to entertain the kids, I couldn't help but think, "You can add all the glitter you want to that glue you're sniffing, but it's still glue!". So I arrived at 5 o'clock, anxious to retrieve my baby girl…& learned another valuable parenting trick. If you do leave your small child with drunken, glue sniffin' hosts, put a name tag on her. As I waited at the front door, they paraded 2 other rug rats out to me before I finally trotted in & hunted down the correct one. Colour me unimpressed. Seriously.
The Mayor!

Cuomo Secures Jail Time, Restitution From Long Island Man Who Defrauded New Yorkers Through Fake Ged Courses
MINEOLA, NY (March 13, 2009) - Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo today announced his office has secured a jail sentence and restitution from a Long Island man who exploited local residents through his fake GED home study courses.
Robert Collins of East Meadow duped thousands of consumers into enrolling in his fraudulent course, even though multiple court orders had already mandated him to permanently close his business.
Collins pleaded guilty to contempt for violating previous court orders that he shut down his business. He was sentenced by Nassau County Supreme Court Justice Anthony Parga to pay $5,000 in restitution and serve 3 months in jail, plus 250 hours of community service. The court also ordered Collins to completely shut down his business by closing the P.O. Box and phone number he used for his fraudulent businesses.
Collins, 68, ran two businesses - "Long Island Home Study" and "East End Home Study" - that falsely claimed they could award genuine, state-authorized high school equivalency diplomas through an at-home General Education Development (GED) test. Collins' actions had been barred by multiple court orders and judgments since 2005, but he continues to sell fake GED diplomas.
"Time after time, this man exploited hard-working New Yorkers who were trying to advance their opportunities through education," said Attorney General Cuomo. "For ignoring previous court orders and taking advantage of unsuspecting consumers throughout and beyond New York State, he is going to jail."
Collins repeatedly promised consumers that they would receive diplomas "straight from the Education Department itself" and that the diplomas could be used "to get into any college in the United States." Many of the consumers who enrolled in Collins' course were born outside the United States and were not familiar with the educational requirements for a GED. They signed up for Collins' course expecting to obtain diplomas that would help them gain admission to college or trade school. Instead, they received nothing but worthless "certificates" stating that they had completed Collins' course.
Under New York law, students can earn the New York State High School Equivalency Diploma only by taking and passing the official General Educational Development (GED) examination. Any school offering a GED preparatory course must be licensed by the State Department of Education. The test is free and given at centers that have been approved by the State Education Department and the GED Testing Service. The term "GED" is sometimes confused with advertised "General Equivalency Diplomas," but these other credentials, whether obtained through correspondence, on-line, or classroom instruction, are not New York State High School Equivalency Diplomas and are not recognized by the State Education Department.
Before investing in any program of study that offers a General Educational Diploma, consumers should first contact the New York State Department of Education at (518) 474-8940 to find out if the program's credential is recognized.
The case was handled by Assistant Attorney General Victoria L. Safran, under the supervision of Assistant Attorney General-In-Charge of the Nassau Regional Office Valerie Singleton. Senior Investigator Paul Matthews and Postal Inspector Eric Oram, of the United States Postal Inspection Service, assisted in the investigation.

Life in prison, I think not. I hope that's prison life, since Gabi can easily claim domestic abuse as a mitigating circumstance.
Also, I'm really hot and cold with Theresa, but I want her to have more fun being bad. I don't want her hostile so much as devil may care (and I think JL is best when Theresa is that way) - and that picture illustrates how I like my JT.

|May 30 2014, 11:22 PM Post #13
So Jennifer Rose Horton, the tortured heroine, and St. Daniel the Jonas of Nazareth, the omnipotent creator, are actually the main characters in the Ericole story. Jennifer Rose Horton is conflicted over her decision to make Ericole all about herself, but at the end of the day, she's the moral compass of Salem so she's absolutely right and should berate and talk down Nicole Pariah Walker.
And it's just a matter of time before St. Daniel the Jonas of Nazareth, seeing that he's God, will be revealed as the one who has actually figured out that Gabi is the killer and let Hope know through pictures of the real culprit.
|May 30 2014, 11:36 PM Post #14
Wait until several characters talk about how the Ericole reveal is affecting Jennifer. Someone will ask Abigail how her mother is doing after the horrific experience of learning about Nicole's deception. Another person will urge Hope or Maggie to look into Jennifer. And JJ will fret about what this is doing to Daniel. He will be frustrated because he wants to help Daniel, but there's nothing he can do. Paige will lend a supportive ear and she'll understand how JJ is feeling because Daniel is such a great guy and she's sad because he doesn't deserve this. And let's not forget about Maxine. She might even shed few tears.
Nick's murder was about Jennifer so what makes you think this won't be about her?

It's more likely that Gabi will confess her role in the Melonie kidnapping. She'll give that as the reason for Nick's blackmail. She might tell part of the river stuff. Because if she told the full story then there's going to be huge ramifications for Kate and Sami and she might not want to cause any problems for them.

I've come to the conclusion that THIS Jennifer ( not the real Jennifer we all used to adore) and Daniel are actually perfect for each other. They are both holier than thou sanctimonious hypocritical judgmental can't do no wrong shit dont stink bastards.

Design: Observational study.
Setting: Single tertiary care hospital.
Patients: Term neonates and preterm neonates were recruited and divided in groups according to important clinical events.
Interventions: Cord blood samples were drawn from all newborns immediately after birth. Human beta-defensin-2 levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technology. All neonates were followed clinically during the first 30 days of life.
Measurements and Main Results: Forty-two term and 31 preterm neonates were enrolled. Human beta-defensin-2 levels in term neonates were higher compared with preterm infants (median, 1,882 vs 918 pg/mL; p = 0.003) and correlated with gestational age and birth weight. Of 31 preterm neonates, seven suffered from late-onset sepsis, and this was associated with lower human beta-defensin-2 levels (median, 513 vs 1,411 pg/mL; p = 0.006).
Conclusion: Preterm neonates show lower human beta-defensin-2 levels in cord blood compared with term neonates. Low human beta-defensin-2 levels in preterm neonates might be associated with an increased risk of late-onset sepsis.

JESSIE WOMACK PLAINTIFFv.DOLLAR GENERAL CORPORATION AND BRENDA SIMMONS AND JOHN/JANE DOES 1-5 DEFENDANTS
Before the court is the motion of the plaintiff, Jessie Womack, requesting that this court remand these proceedings to the Circuit Court of Lincoln County, Mississippi, [docket # 8] from where it was removed to this federal forum by defendant. Plaintiff filed this action on March 13, 2007, in the Circuit Court of Lincoln County, Mississippi, alleging state law claims grounded in negligence.
Procedural History and Background Facts
This is an action for personal injuries allegedly sustained by the plaintiff, Jessie Womack, while she was shopping at the Dollar General store located at 211 Hwy. 51, Brookhaven, Mississippi. Plaintiff alleges she was injured on May 11, 2004, when she slipped and fell on the floor of the store. Ms. Womack maintains that the defendants failed properly to maintain the business premises; that the defendants knew or should have known of the dangerous conditions; and that the defendants failed to make reasonable periodic inspections.
The subject lawsuit was filed on March 13, 2007, against Dollar General Corporation ("Dollar General") and Stacy Jordan in the Circuit Court of Lincoln County, Mississippi. The case was removed to federal court on May 4, 2007, on the purported basis of diversity jurisdiction*fn1 [docket #1]. Although both Ms. Womack and Ms. Jordan are Mississippi citizens, the defendants averred in their Notice of Removal that Ms. Jordan had been fraudulently joined in the action to defeat federal jurisdiction. On May 11, 2007, Stacy Jordan was terminated as a party in this action. Also, on May 11, 2007, plaintiff filed an amended complaint to substitute Brenda Simmons as a defendant [docket # 5]. Ms. Womack claims Ms. Simmons, also a Mississippi citizen, was the manager of the store at the time of the incident.
The plaintiff has now moved to remand this case to state court, and argues that Ms. Simmons was not fraudulently joined because plaintiff has alleged a viable claim against her personally, as store manager under Mississippi law [docket # 8]. The plaintiff claims that because Ms. Simmons is a proper defendant in this action, complete diversity between the parties does not exist and this court does not have subject matter jurisdiction. For the reasons which follow, this court denies plaintiff's motion to remand.
I. Standard for Remand
Under Title 28 U.S.C. § 1447(c),*fn2 a district court is mandated to remand a case if, at any time before final judgment, it appears the court lacks subject matter jurisdiction. Once a motion to remand has been filed, the burden is on the removing party to establish that federal jurisdiction exists. The Fifth Circuit has held that the removal statutes are to be construed "strictly against removal and for remand." Eastus v. Blue Bell Creameries, L.P., 97 F.3d 100, 106 (5th Cir.1996); see Shamrock Oil & Gas Corp. v. Sheets, 313 U.S. 100, 108-109, 61 S.Ct. 868, 872, 85 L.Ed. 1214 (1941).
II. Standard for Diversity Jurisdiction
Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. Removing defendants bear the burden of establishing federal subject matter jurisdiction. See Pullman Co. v. Jenkins, 305 U.S. 534, 540, 59 S.Ct. 347, 83 L.Ed. 334 (1939); see also De Aguilar v. Boeing Co., 47 F.3d 1404, 1408 (5th Cir. 1995); Webb ex. rel. Groth v. City of Leland, Mississippi, 2004 WL 3092767, 1 (N.D. Miss. 2004). "Only state-court actions that could have originally been filed in federal court may be removed to federal court by the defendant." Caterpillar Inc. v. Williams, 482 U.S. 386, 392, 107 S.Ct. 2425, 96 L.Ed.2d 318 (1987). Thus, where there is no federal question basis for jurisdiction, as in this case, the defendant bears the burden of showing that diversity jurisdiction exists. Pursuant to Title 28 U.S.C. § 1332, federal courts have subject matter jurisdiction over cases where "the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs, and is between . . . citizens of different States[.]" In order for a federal court to exercise subject matter jurisdiction under the rubric of "diversity jurisdiction," there must be complete diversity between the opposing parties. See Strawbridge v. Curtiss, 3 Cranch 267, 2 L.Ed. 435 (1806). In this case, the plaintiff and defendant Simmons are citizens of Mississippi, while defendant Dollar General is a Tennessee corporation.
III. Was Ms. Simmons fraudulently joined?
To demonstrate improper joinder of resident defendants, the removing defendants must demonstrate either: "(1) actual fraud in the pleading of jurisdictional facts, or (2) inability of the plaintiff to establish a cause of action against the non-diverse party in state court." Crockett v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., 436 F.3d 529, 532 (5th Cir. 2006). As the defendants rely on both prongs in this case, the threshold questions are:
(1) whether plaintiff committed fraud in pleading the facts of this case; and (2) whether "there is no reasonable basis for the district court to predict that the plaintiff might be able to recover against an in-state defendant. Smallwood v. Ill. Cent. R.R. Co., 385 F.3d 568, 573 (5th Cir. 2004) (en banc), cert. denied, 544 U.S. 992,125 S.Ct.1825, 161 L.Ed.2d 755 (2005). The burden of proof is on the removing party. Guillory v. PPG Indus., Inc., 434 F.3d 303, 308 (5th Cir. 2005). In deciding whether a party was improperly joined, we resolve all contested factual issues and ambiguities of state law in favor of the plaintiff. Id. As "the effect of removal is to deprive the state court of an action properly before it, removal raises significant federalism concerns." Carpenter v. Wichita Falls Indep. Sch. Dist., 44 F.3d 362, 365-66 (5th Cir. 1995). The removal statute is therefore to be strictly construed, and any doubt about the propriety of removal must be resolved in favor of remand. Id. at 366; Acuna v. Brown & Root Inc., 200 F.3d 335, 339 (5th Cir. 2000).
The court finds no evidence that plaintiff committed fraud in pleading the jurisdictional facts in this action. Accordingly, the court considers the remaining factor for fraudulent joinder. Under this standard, Dollar General must demonstrate that Ms. Womack has no possibility of recovery for injuries sustained in a slip and fall case against Ms. Simmons under Mississippi law.
A. Mississippi Case Law Regarding Individual Liability of Manager
At issue is whether the individually named in-state defendant, Ms. Simmons, may be held liable for her actions as the store manager. It is true that Mississippi law does not impose liability based merely upon managerial status, but the law imposes liability of a manager or employee for any direct acts of negligence. See, e.g. Griffin v. Dolgen, 143 F.Supp.2d 670 (S.D. Miss. 2001); Hill v. Beverly Enterprises-Mississippi, Inc., 305 F.Supp.2d 644 (S.D. Miss. 2003); Mims v. Renal Care Group, Inc., 399 F.Supp.2d 740 (S.D. Miss. 2005). Plaintiff alleges the following claims in her complaint:
I. The floor was not properly maintained as evidenced by its dangerous condition indicating a lack of ordinary care by Defendants;
II. Defendants knew or should have known of the dangerous condition and should have warned Plaintiff accordingly;
III. Defendants failed to make reasonable periodic inspections to discover dangerous conditions and to make safe any hazardous conditions.
Ms. Womack was an invitee. A business owner owes a business invitee a duty of ordinary care to keep the business premises in a reasonably safe condition. Treadwell v. Circus Circus of Mississippi, Inc., 942 So.2d 221 (Miss. 2006) (quoting Walter v. Dixieland Food Stores, Inc., 492 So.2d 283, 285 (Miss. 1986). As well, the owner of a business premises has a duty to warn invitees of dangerous conditions which are not apparent to the invitee, of which the owners or occupier knows or through the exercise of reasonable care should know. Id. The owner is not an insurer against all injuries which may occur on the premises. Jerry Lee's Grocery, Inc. v. Thompson, 528 So.2d 293, 295 (Miss.1988). In Munford, Inc. v. Fleming, 597 So.2d 1282, 1284 (Miss.1992), the Mississippi Supreme Court established the standard by which a plaintiff may recover on a slip and fall case:
[A plaintiff] must show the proprietor had actual knowledge of a dangerous condition, or the dangerous condition existed for a sufficient amount of time to establish constructive knowledge, in that the proprietor should have known of the condition, or the dangerous condition was created through a negligent act of a store's proprietor or his employees.
Plaintiff has not affirmatively pleaded any set of facts that would establish a cause of action against Ms. Simmons, the in-state defendant. Hands-on contact is not required to impose personal liability under Mississippi law. See Mims v. The Renal Care Group, Inc., 399 F.Supp.2d 740 (S.D. Miss. 2005). One may easily be a direct participant in tortious conduct by merely authorizing or negligently failing to remedy misconduct by one's subordinates. Id. Plaintiff's own pleading states that "it is unknown how often [d]efendant Simmons or any other agent or employee of Dollar General periodically inspected the aisles of the store while working." See [docket # 37 ¶ 2]. Without a showing of some negligence directly attributed to Ms. Simmons, she would not be liable under Mississippi law for the alleged injuries incurred by Ms. Womack.
IV. Dollar General's Diverse Status
Plaintiff argues that since Dollar General is qualified to do business in Mississippi, it is subject to suit just as a domestic corporation. This argument is frivolous. Plaintiff confuses a venue determination with subject matter jurisdiction.
Section 1332 (a) provides that a corporation is a citizen of both its state of incorporation and the state of its principal place of business "without regards to whether it is authorized to do business in that state . . ." See Teal Energy USA, Inc. v. GT, Inc., 369 F.3d 873,878 (5th Cir. 2004).
Based on the reasoning and authority set forth above, the court finds that Ms. Simmons was fraudulently joined in this action. Accordingly, this court hereby dismisses her from this action.
With her absence, this court has diversity jurisdiction because complete diversity exists between the remaining parties. Therefore, remand is not appropriate in this matter and plaintiff's motion is hereby denied. The parties are directed to contact the assigned Magistrate Judge for a scheduling order.
SO ORDERED, this the 12th day of March, 2008.

Two LAUSD board members retire, Friedlander wins Shoah scholarship prize
Two L.A. School Board Members to Retire
Veteran Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) board members Julie Korenstein and Marlene Canter, both of whom are Jewish, announced in late October that they would not seek re-election for their terms, which expire in June.
Korenstein has served on the seven-member board for 22 years and is the longest-serving representative in LAUSD history. On Oct. 30 she released a statement saying she felt it was time to retire.
"I have had many amazing experiences serving on the board -- everything from reducing class size in K-3, supporting full-day kindergarten, improving test scores to advocating dropout prevention programs," said Korenstein, a grandmother of four who represents the San Fernando Valley's District 6. "I am proud of the contributions I have made, and I look forward to a very exciting and rewarding retirement."
Her decision came one day after Canter, a two-term board member, announced she would not renew her bid for the District 4 seat.
Canter released a statement Oct. 29 saying she was proud to have led efforts to ban junk food in schools, build new facilities to accommodate swelling class sizes and improve test scores.
"While this experience has been immensely rewarding, it is time for me to seek new challenges and avenues to improve the lives of children," Canter said. "I will continue to focus on working with those who are bringing unique and meaningful improvements to education."
The eight-year board member has also campaigned to bring Westside families back to public schools from private schools. On Oct. 21, she hosted a Westside Middle School Information Night to urge parents to explore local public school options.

StandWithUs Conference Focuses on Israel
The unofficial standard bearer of a StandWithUs Israel in Focus conference on Nov. 9 was Hillel Kook, a Zionist activist who faced enormous obstacles in sounding the alarm in the United States during the early stages of the Holocaust. Cited first in the opening speech by Esther Renzer, the organization's president and co-founder, Kook's story of persistence and solitary struggle became a theme echoed by the speakers throughout the daylong symposium at Sinai Temple.
Itamar Marcus, founder of Palestinian Media Watch, pioneered the practice of monitoring and reporting on various Palestinian media sources and presented a disturbing slew of video clips and excerpts from Arab television, school textbooks and newspaper articles.
A rapid-fire, joke-riddled seminar by communications expert Neil Lazarus offered a crash course in how to advocate for Israel more effectively -- one person at a time.
In Kook fashion, investigative author Edwin Black railed against United States inaction in addressing the looming oil crisis. Best known for his book, "IBM and the Holocaust," Black discussed his latest publication, "The Plan: How to Rescue Society the Day the Oil Stops -- or the Day Before," which lays out a detailed strategy for surviving a sudden, potentially catastrophic shortage of oil, a fate he warns is imminent.
Looking toward the future, Micah Halpern, a Middle East columnist and terrorism expert, offered a brief analysis of what's next in U.S. and Israeli politics: "In Israel you can often predict what will happen in four days, sometimes guess at what will happen in four weeks and never know what will happen in four months."
Heading in the opposite direction, historian and StandWithUs consultant Roberta Seid whizzed through 3,060 years of Israeli history, pointing out overlooked or misunderstood facts about the contested region.
Wendy Lewis concluded the conference on an upbeat note with "Israel, Small Country Big Ideas: Israel Beyond the conflict -- Amazing Innovations," a slide show of futuristic inventions, such as a Jetsonesque flying car planned for production in 2010 and critical environmental advances, such as a working desalination plant in Ashdod that provides 15 percent of Israel's drinking water.

Saul Friedlander Wins Holocaust Scholarship Prize
Holocaust historian Saul Friedlander, 75, is one of three scholars named as inaugural recipients of the Holocaust Educational Foundation (HEF) Distinguished Achievement Award for Holocaust Studies and Research. Friedlander, who was born in Prague and hidden through the war in a French monastery, holds the 1939 Club Chair in Holocaust Studies at UCLA. This year he won the Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction for his book, "The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939-1945."
The Skokie, Ill.,-based HEF, founded by survivors in 1980, presented the awards earlier this month at its biannual Lessons and Legacies conference, which attracted 250 Holocaust scholars.
"This award is an important part of the foundation's efforts to encourage future Holocaust studies and research," said Theodore Weiss, president of HEF.
Other recipients are Christopher R. Browning, author of seven books on the Holocaust and the Frank Porter Graham Professor of History at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, and Michael Marrus, the Chancellor Rose and Ray Wolfe Professor emeritus of Holocaust Studies at the University of Toronto, author of many books on the era.

Concussed Prince practices
LOS ANGELES - UCLA quarterback Kevin Prince practiced on Tuesday looking as alert as ever but regardless of what he's able to accomplish on the practice field this week, he won't get to play Saturday at Washington State without permission from the team's doctors.
Prince will continue to undergo a series of tests this week until medical personnel are convinced that he has completely recovered from the mild concussion he suffered in last Saturday's game against Washington.
Prince was hit by Huskies linebacker Kevin Butler in the second quarter of the Bruins' 24-23 victory. The helmet-to-helmet hit knocked Prince out of the game.
Prince said he felt good after Tuesday's practice but understood the protocol that he's required to go through when coming off such an injury.
"I can tell them all I want that I feel normal but they won't believe me," Prince said of the medical staff. "I've got to prove it."
The tests are fairly simple and seem to be more time consuming than anything. A lot of them are geared toward testing Prince's memory skills.
"I'm sure she'll do the same stuff like make me count backward by sevens from 100 and stuff like that," Prince said.
"There is little crazy stuff like that. She'll tell you five words and you have to tell them back to her five minutes later.
"They take good care of us."
Jerzy Siewierski sported a big grin when he walked onto Spaulding Field for practice on Tuesday. It had been less than two weeks since he suffered a foot injury, later diagnosed as plantar fasciitis, and his return gave him hope that he will be able to play on Saturday.
Siewierski jogged around the field a few times and spent the remainder of the practice time wearing flip-flops on the sideline.
"The plan was to come out and run through it a little bit," Siewierski said. "It felt real good and I'm comfortable with it, and they're comfortable with it. I should be good to go."
Cornerback Aaron Hester feels equally as positive. Pain in his right leg kept him from practicing last week, and ultimately kept him out of the game against Washington.
Hester cracked the tibia in his right leg during the Bruins' season opener but reinjured the leg when he was kicked by a teammate in an Oct. 31 game at Oregon State.
"It was just a little sore last week," Hester said. "Friday morning when I woke up, I started feeling good. I'm ready to practice now. I didn't get a lot of reps because they wanted to see how I did or how I handled it, but I should get more reps (today)."
Offensive lineman Ryan Taylor sprained his right foot last Saturday and was wearing a boot. Darius Savage took reps at right guard.
