One look at LLumar® decorative film and you will know you have never seen a window film quite like it.
• This film lets you achieve the look of etched glass, at a fraction of the cost.
• It opens unlimited design possibilities, allowing you to bring vibrant color, visual effects and graphic patterns to glass surfaces in commercial and residential spaces.
• It gives you new power to impart privacy and enhance safety in commercial spaces.
LLumar® glass enhancement film puts a new world of creativity, functionality and flexibility within your grasp. And within your vision.
Achieve the look of fine, etched glass, without the expense or permanence.
You can bring color and texture to virtually any glass window, door, or room divider. Subtly or sensationally. LLumar® decorative film puts multiple colors and patterns at your disposal: red, yellow, green, blue, bronze, white, black, matte, frost. Combine any or all to splash on virtually any color. Achieve any hue. Diffuse, focus, or block light completely.
You can customize a space with a corporate logo or signage. And choose from dozens of patterns to create enriching visuals; overlap multiple patterns to create signature effects.
LLumar® decorative film does more than enhance aesthetics -- it serves vital functions, and can be applied to:
• glass partitions
• retail displays
• walkways
• office doors
• conference rooms
• private spaces
LLumar® decorative films can be used to:
• make glass surfaces clearly and beautifully visible
• to delineate passageways
• enhance safety in public spaces
• add flexibility to displays
LLumar® film can even add solar protection to sun-drenched spaces.
Whether you want to memorably reproduce a client's logo in a corporate entranceway, add new interest to a retail display, or cost-efficiently bring the beauty of etched glass to the front door of a client's residence, let LLumar be your inspiration.
Customized To Complement Your Design
LLumar decorative films are custom cut, spliced and finished to your specifications. Film can be applied to virtually any glass surface, as well as metal, paned, or other flat or cylindrical surfaces. LLumar glass enhancement film is available through the LLumar national dealer network.
While the effect is rich and striking, etched glass is difficult and costly to install and maintain. Altering etched glass is virtually impossible. And cleaning it can be problematic.
By contrast, LLumar glass enhancement film creates the look of etched glass yet is infinitely changeable. Such flexibility can be especially important in leased spaces or commercial properties where changing company logos and signage mandate frequent updates. Once appled, LLumar film can be wiped clean with conventional glass cleaner. And it is far more cost-efficient than etched glass.

Product DescriptionMicrofiber towels are the back bone of a top quality detail and really make high quality detailing possible. After investing time and money in to premium microfiber towels it's really important to preserve them with a top quality detergent like the Micro-Restore. Microfiber towels have hundreds of thousand of ultra soft micro-pores that are open and can grab and collect particles, which is why they are soft effective at cleaning. However this also makes cleaning the microfiber products more challenging than traditional materials. The Micro-Restore is very unique in it's ability to safely remove contaminants, keep the micro pores open and soft. This formula uses an optimized blend of chelating agents, emulsifiers, surfactants, and builders in an aqueous system, removing all foreign particles from the microfiber towel. Dirt, oils, grease, wax, polish, etc. can be very difficult to remove but the Micro-Restore makes it quick and easy. The water softening agents inside the formula remove calcium, magnesium and other minerals found in water that can prematurely fade microfiber towels. Best of all this formula contains absolutely no fabric softener or bleach. While many other detergents claim to have none they still use small traces which can degrade and stiffen the microfiber towels over time. Pour 2 ounces in large loads and 1 ounce in smaller loads of laundry. If you have heavily soiled towels or an extra large washing machine then 3 - 4 ounces may be needed for best results. When you are done the towels will look clean, feel soft and work great!

I used this product on all my polyester/spandex athletic clothes that had been washed with softeners. It seems to have restored their ability to wick moisture away again. If you do use it on clothes like this I would recommend washing again in regular detergent, although it isn't absolutely necessary. They just don't smell as nice.

Tilli Tansy is Reader in Modern Medical Science, UCL. Her published original contributions are many in number, high in quality and far ranging in their impact. Without her work, our understanding of the development of much of modern biomedical science, particularly physiology, pharmacology and neuroscience in general, and the pharmaceutical industry in particular, would be much weaker. The historical assessment and analysis of the role of animal experimentation in recent biomedical science also runs through much of her research. Of comparable importance is her success in stimulating new methods of research as leader of the History of Modern Medical Science group at the Wellcome Trust Centre at University College London. Significantly, she initiated an entirely new methodology, that of the Witness Seminar, to record aspects of modern biomedicine that would otherwise be lost. This technique has captured essential source material in more than forty wide-ranging areas of biomedical research and is now mirrored around the world. Without her unique methods we would have lost, and would continue to lose, a wealth of historical material.

For release: Monday, September 27, 2010
Writing in Nature Genetics,* researchers have found that a gene involved in the immune response is linked to the risk of developing Parkinson's disease.
The finding "is a small piece of a big puzzle," said lead author Haydeh Payami, Ph.D., an investigator at the New York State Department of Health Wadsworth Center in Albany. However, it strengthens a theory that Parkinson's disease may result partly from harmful immune reactions such as inflammation, infections or autoimmunity – when the immune system attacks the body's own tissues.
Parkinson's disease attacks neurons in the substantia nigra, a part of the brain that helps control movement. The most common symptoms of the disease are involuntary shaking, slow movement, stiffened muscle tone, and impaired balance.
There are rare purely genetic forms of Parkinson's disease, but the disease usually is sporadic, meaning that the cause is unclear. In these sporadic cases, researchers suspect that the disease stems from an interplay of genetics and environmental factors. Among these, caffeine consumption and cigarette smoking are associated with a reduced risk of Parkinson's disease, while there is some evidence that occupational exposure to pesticides increases the risk of the disease.
More recently, investigators have linked a handful of genes to the risk of sporadic Parkinson's. The two strongest linked genes, MAPT and SNCA, appear to be active primarily in neurons. MAPT encodes a structural protein inside neurons and SNCA encodes alpha-synuclein, a protein believed to regulate signaling both within and between neurons.
The new study identifies a variant of the HLA-DRA gene as a risk factor for Parkinson's. HLA genes encode proteins that are displayed on the body's cells to help the immune system distinguish self from non-self.
The study involved nearly 4,000 participants, recruited through clinics affiliated with the NeuroGenetics Research Consortium (NGRC) in Oregon, Washington, New York and Georgia. About half of the participants had Parkinson's and half did not. Their DNA samples were scanned for nearly 1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which are tiny, usually harmless variants in the genetic code.
In addition to finding an association between Parkinson's disease and a variant in HLA-DRA, the study confirmed previously reported associations with SNCA, MAPT and a gene called GAK. The variant in HLA-DRA was most strongly associated with late-onset, sporadic cases and was seen more often in men, who are affected by sporadic Parkinson's disease more often than women.
The researchers also explored the combined effects of having risk variants in all four of the genes - HLA, SNCA, MAPT and GAK. Since everyone has two copies of each gene, the total possible number of risk variants is eight. The risk of Parkinson's disease was doubled for individuals with four risk variants and five-fold higher for individuals with six or more risk variants.
"Each of the genes associated with sporadic Parkinson's disease has a very small impact on disease risk by itself, but additively, these genes can have a large impact," said Dr. Payami.
Considered with other bits of evidence, a connection between HLA-DRA and Parkinson's should spur more research on immune system's role in the disease, Dr. Payami said. Some studies have shown that there are signs of inflammation in the brains of patients, and that the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is associated with a lower risk of the disease. Perhaps not coincidentally, a relative of HLA-DRA called HLA-DRB is the strongest known genetic risk factor for multiple sclerosis, a neurological disease caused by autoimmune reactions.
Dr. Payami and her colleagues found no interaction between HLA-DRA status and prior NSAID use. For example, there was no evidence that having a risk version of HLA-DRA canceled the beneficial effects of NSAID use, or vice versa. Determining the functional significance of HLA-DRA status in Parkinson's disease will require further investigation, Dr. Payami said.
Data from this study, as well as other Parkinson's disease genome-wide association studies, are available from the dbGaP database, sponsored by NIH's National Center for Biotechnology Information.
The NGRC is led by Dr. Payami and is a project to gather information about genetic and environmental risk factors involved in Parkinson's disease. The NGRC clinics are directed by Cyrus Zabetian, M.D., at the University of Washington in Seattle, Stewart Factor, D.O., at Emory University in Atlanta, and John Nutt, M.D., at Oregon Health and Sciences University in Portland. The study was funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and an award from The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research Edmond J. Safra Global Genetics Consortia initiative .

Pick a card. You get 1 of 52 possibilities.
If you put the card back, the next draw remains 1 of 52 possibilities.
If you do NOT put the card back, the next draw is 1 of 51 possibilities.
Put it back? With Replacement.
Don't Put it back? Without Replacement.
Each draw is a heart or it isn't. WITH replacement, the probabilties do not change with each draw.
13/52 heart 39/52 not a heart
If one is to get ALL FOUR hearts, that shoudl be (13/52)^4. There is only one sequence that will produce this result.
If one is get THREE hearts, there are four different sequences that will work. OHHH, HOHH, HHOH, and HHHO. Each of these has probability (39/52)*(13/52)^3. Multiplication is commutative, so the probablities don't change. The order DOES matter a little - it makes four ways to do it, rather than just one.
What do you get?

There is not another race I want to be on the podium more than the Washington 500, and it will have to wait another year. I finished 4th. Why is this race so important to me? Because my dad would take me to it as a kid and we would watch some of the best drivers in the country battle it out. It has a ton of nostalgic value to me, and that's why I want to win it someday.
To sum up the race this year would be to say; our car just wasn't that good. We did a bunch of stuff to it during practice, but nothing made it faster. We kept at it all day, but couldn't get the thing through the corner. I opted to give up starting outside pole to try some more changes and went to the back. I got to the front by being patient and some carnage from other teams.
My funnest moment of the night was sliding across the grass avoiding a wreck and doing a perfect 360 without hitting anything. I felt like a drifter! Anyway, looking forward to the next race on August 15th.

Yesterday's special-election victory in Honolulu, Hawaii, enables newly-elected Congressman Djou to fill the seat vacated by Neil Abercrombie (D-HI) who resigned to run for the Hawaiian gubernatorial seat. After the mail-in votes were counted it was Romney-endorsed Djou on top with 39.5 percent of the vote while his opponents, Colleen Hanabus (Dem), received 30.8 percent and Congressman Ed Case (Dem) pulled in 27.6 of the tally.
HONOLULU – Republicans scored a midterm election victory Saturday when Honolulu City Councilman Charles Djou won a Democratic-held House seat in Hawaii in the district where President Barack Obama grew up — the latest triumph for the GOP as it looks to take back control of Congress.
Djou's victory was a blow to Obama and other Democrats who could not rally around a candidate and find away to win a congressional race that should have been a cakewalk. The seat had been held by a Democrat for nearly 20 years and is located where Obama was born and spent most of his childhood.
"This is a momentous day. We have sent a message to the United States Congress. We have sent a message to the national Democrats. We have sent a message to the machine," Djou said. "The congressional seat is not owned by one political party. This congressional seat is owned by the people."
(emphasis mine)
Associated Press on Djou's win:
His message was clear: Taxes are too high, the federal government has grown too large, and wasteful government spending hinders economic prosperity.
Djou, the son of Asian immigrants, joined the Army Reserve after Sept. 11 and obtained the rank of captain. He has an Ivy League education and a law degree, served in the state Legislature and worked as a law school professor.
Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele: "Charles' victory is evidence his conservative message of lowering the tax burden, job creation and government accountability knows no party lines. It is a message Americans want to hear from candidates across the country."
Djou faces another election this fall to determine who will serve during the next term. It will be an uphill battle in his heavily Democratic district because the vote won't be split between two opposing candidates.
"The people of Hawaii have given us a short-term lease with an option to buy in November," Djou said. "This is not the time for us to rest on our laurels. This is the time to redouble our efforts to bring out change. To do good, to restore our nation to prosperity."
The party was on at the Republican party headquarters in Honolulu. A band played Hawaiian music and hundreds of supporters hugged Djou, piling on a stack of floral lei around his neck. A whiteboard inside the office read, "Just Djou it!"
UPDATE: NewsMax.com
Hawaii's newest member of Congress hopes to be quickly sworn in this week after his special election victory. […]
Djou also says he'd like to snag the Armed Services Committee and Committee on Natural Resources assignments that were held by his predecessor, Democrat Neil Abercrombie, who resigned in February to run for governor.
UPDATE 2:Free and Strong America PAC Mitt Romney's blog
Yes We Did — Again
Last week I wrote to you and our other team members around the country asking that you stand with me as we redouble our efforts for the important elections ahead.
And the support and enthusiasm of people like you has already paid dividends.
On Saturday, there was an important special election in Hawaii's 1st Congressional District. And just like the Massachusetts voters who sent a strong message to the liberals in Washington by electing Scott Brown to the U.S. Senate last January, the people of Hawaii have spoken by electing yet another strong conservative — Charles Djou — to Congress. This is no small feat, given that this district voted overwhelmingly for President Obama in 2008.
With your support, my PAC worked extremely hard on behalf of Charles, raising funds for his campaign, and sending direct monetary support. Making a difference in campaigns like this is why I formed my Free and Strong America PAC and it's exhilarating to see our hard work pay off.
Our victory in Hawaii sets the stage for more conservative victories in November's all-important midterm elections. But this is no time to rest on our laurels. This year, all 435 Congressional seats, one third of the U.S. Senate, 37 Governorships, and control of numerous state legislatures are at stake.
Will you stand with me today in making a generous contribution to my PAC of $35, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000, $2,500, or even the maximum $5,000? Your support will enable us to build upon this victory and elect more conservative candidates throughout the country this November.
We are gaining momentum every day and we must keep it going during the weeks and months ahead. This could be our year to send a message of fiscal restraint and conservatism to all the big spenders in Washington and take back control of our government … but only if we stand together. I hope you will join me in this effort today.

For release: Monday, May 16, 1994
Aurora K. Pajeau, M.D.,M.P.H., a clinical associate in the Neuroepidemiology Branch of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) will present preliminary findings from the first door-to-door prevalence study of tropical spastic paraparesis (TSP) associated with HTLV-I in Jamaica at the 6th International Conference on Human Retrovirology: HTLV, on Monday, May 16 at 2:45 p.m. at the Marriott Sea View, Absecon, New Jersey.
Dr. Pajeau and colleagues conducted the two-phase door-to-door field study in the remote mountainous areas of St. Catherine Parish, Jamaica, from July to October of 1993. The purpose of the study was to determine the prevalence of and risk factors for TSP in residents of an area reported to have increased HTLV-I seroprevalence.
TSP, a retroviral disease with adult onset, was first recorded in 1888 as Jamaican neuropathy, a neurologic syndrome. TSP appears to be a uniform syndrome worldwide, with minor regional variations. Onset is gradual in more than 60 percent of cases. Back pain, leg weakness, numbness and stiffness, sensations of pins and needles in the feet and burning of the legs or feet, and bladder dysfunction are common symptoms of the condition. Usually one leg is affected more than the other at onset. Other symptoms are constipation and impotence. Progression is typically slow and indolent, sometimes reaching a plateau and remaining at that level for several years. The pathophysiology may be multifactorial in origin.
The study identified 354 persons with difficulty walking. They received neurological examinations and serological tests in their homes. Investigators found a clear association between antibodies for HTLV-I and neurologic symptoms. Preliminary results of this field survey indicated a higher prevalence than previously estimated by passive surveillance techniques.
HTLV-I-associated TSP occurs in endemic form in geographic clusters in island populations throughout the tropics and in southern Japan. It has been reported in the Caribbean islands of Jamaica, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Hispaniola (Dominican Republic and Haiti), Saint Lucia, Barbados, Curaçao, Trinidad and Tobago, as well as in the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean and Tumaco in Colombia.
Tropical myelopathies, which are disorders of the spinal cord and/or nerves, are a significant regional public health problem for developing nations because of the number of disabled individuals and the absence of facilities for diagnosis, care, rehabilitation and job retraining.
"It is our hope that international collaborations like this one will lead to preventive measures to offset the serious effects of tropical myelopathies affecting so many people," said Dr. Pajeau. She added that very few large-scale epidemiologic studies of neurologic diseases have been performed to date in tropical areas due, in part, to a shortage of economic resources. Although recent neuroepidemiologic studies have been initiated in Jamaica, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Chile and Ecuador, there has been no door-to-door prevalence data on TSP until this study.
Dr. Pajeau collaborated with researchers from the University of the West Indies in Mona Kingston, Jamaica, Steuart Richards, M.D., Pamela Rodgers-Johnson, M.D., Beverly Cranston, Owen Morgan, M.D., and former NINDS researcher Gustavo C. Roman, M.D.
The NINDS is the nation's principal supporter of research on the brain and nervous system and a lead agency for the Congressionally mandated Decade of the Brain. The Institute supports and conducts a broad program of basic and clinical neurological investigations. The NINDS is part of the National Institutes of Health, located in Bethesda, MD.

The operator of a biomass power plant on the Mississippi River in Cassville will pay $150,000 to settle air pollution violations.
DTE Stoneman and the state Department of Justice have signed the agreement in Grant County Circuit Court. DTE Energy Services, of Ann Arbor, Mich., bought the plant in 2008 and later converted it from coal to biomass, including burning renewable wood waste.
A complaint says the plant failed to operate an air pollution control device to control small particle emissions during startups between August 2010 and January 2011. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported fires started on "multiple occasions" in the biomass storage piles, in violation of the state's open burning laws.
The plant was converted to biomass power in 2010. It sells its power to Dairyland Power Cooperative of La Crosse.

Skip to comments.Democrat Party says Obama doesn't HAVE to be eligible to serve as President
Posted on 06/23/2012 10:04:29 AM PDT by Oldpuppymax
Weary of defending in court the Constitutional eligibility of their boy at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, the Democrat Party has finally admitted Barack Obama is not qualified to be president of the United States and that it doesnt matter.
According to a motion filed by Party attorneys in a Tennessee eligibility lawsuit, Defendants [the Tennessee Democrat Party and the Democrat National Committee] assert that the Tennessee Democrat Party has the right to nominate whoever it chooses to run as a candidate, including someone who is not qualified for the office. (1)
In numerous previous lawsuits questioning the Constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama, Democrats have maintained that...
(Excerpt) Read more at coachisright.com ...
A person who is not Constitutionally qualified to be President can run for the office, but may not serve. That was established in the lawsuits surrounding Eldridge Cleaver's nomination as the Peace and Freedom Party Presidential candidate at the age of 31.
oh THAT argument should do well when it reaches the Supreme Court
Democrats have slipped the tethers of reality. Look for an editorial on this topic.
And, people want to know what's wrong with America?
Pelosism: open defiance, we do what we want.
So they nominate Obama Jr (Hillary)?
When good men do nothing.
Proof-positive that Democrats are Un-American.
No way.
Yu want to talk about an up-rising!
Of course we Democrats can have Ahmadinejad for President if we want it! We Wants it!! The precious!
Nope. Chelsea Clinton.
The first part of that statement is true - the Tennesee Democrat Party DOES have the right to nominate anyone they choose. HOWEVER . . . . . . . . . the Constitution (which, in a surprise twist to the Democrats, is NOT a living document!) provides very clear requirements for anyone wishing to be president of the United States and SPECIFICALLY lists the eligibility requirements.
So, the Tennessee Democrat Party as well as the Democrat Party as a hole (typo intentional!) need to attend the Hillsdale College lecture series on the Constitution to learn about or refresh their knowledge of the Constitution. Until something changes (over MY dead body!!), the Cnstitution is STILL the law of the land and it applies equally to us all, REGARDLESS of party affiliation!!
A full blown people's raid on the nation's capital with pitchforks is the only thing that can save this nation. And that's not going to happen.
Up to now they are correct.
A little egg on the faces of the anti-birther republicans right about now.
Just a "little" however, he is still in office so the job is not done.
Until you can find a court with the GUTS to rule on this case it's gonna go no where.
That is a sad fact because I do not believe he is eligible to hold the office given the facts presented.
GOP Agrees!
I agree with you about "the facts presented". But the very fact that he has not provided proof of eligibility should have been enough to consider him ineligible. Sad state we're in in this country.
If Congress took this issue seriously I do think we would be seeing Nancy Pelosi facing prison time. She confirmed him as eligible without any verification.
wasn't there a song...LIARS, TRAMPS & THIEVES...that seems to apply to the democratic party extraordinaire!
maybe we should make their theme song!
By that thinking, I should run my cat and dare them to say an animal can't be POTUS.
And here I thought the guy with the hundred pound scrotum had the biggest ball this week.
But Republican senate and house critters are not much better for allowing this crap to continue, unchallenged.
Too many PUBs had a hand in getting Obama elected or did not do enough to prevent it — and I am not just talking about GW, Cheney and McClown.
The latter three could have fully identified Obama and his ineligibility but DID NOTHING.
That's a crying shame.
"....including someone who is not qualified for the office. (1)
We're not talking about qualification — most of the people we elect to be POTUS are not qualified.
We are talking about ELIGIBILITY!
That's all the Democrats have. They have known from the beginning that he is not elligible to serve according to the Constitution of the United States of America. They did not spend millions in legal defense motions to keep him in office for nothing. He is not elligible or he would have proved it by now. He was, as his grandmother said, born in Kenya and she was there to witness it. Do you not think it stange that you have not seen a birth certificate?
"She confirmed him as eligible without any verification."
There are also two copies of the Colorado "Official Certification of Nomination" document with Obama and Biden named and signed by Pelosi and the DNC secretary. They are both notarized and dated 8/28/08.
The second one has a stamped mark saying it was received 8/29/08. It also has the phrase "the following candidates are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the United States Constitution" REMOVED.
I downloaded copies of these from a news article, but I do not have a way post them.
Think "Rubio."
Oh, Boehner. Now there's a tough, principled guy. </sarc>
There they go, "deeming" again.
Check this one out !!
It appears that if just her statement makes it valid, she could confirm her dog as eligible.
The ones who matter and have standing never challenged it.
So, now birthers were right but they are coming out of the closet after the law is changed politically... typical.
This looks like a job for:
So has Biden actually been president these last 3-1/2 years?
That sounds so nice...
So would Joe have to re-sign all those executive orders? Or has he been signing them all along....
Lord Monkton is right, A lawyer of a client screwed over by an Obama executive order needs to get case thrown out based of lack of proof of legitimacy.

Purpose: We tested the hypothesis that aging decreases the contribution of metaboreceptors to sympathetic responses during exercise in hypoxia.
Methods: We recorded sympathetic nerve traffic to muscle circulation (MSNA), heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), minute ventilation (VE), and blood lactate (BL) in 12 older (55 ± 10 yr) and 12 younger (22 ± 2 yr) normal subjects during three randomized interventions: isocapnic hypoxia (chemoreflex activation), isometric handgrip exercise (HG) in normoxia (metaboreflex activation), and HG during isocapnic hypoxia (concomitant metaboreflex and chemoreflex activation). All interventions were followed by a forearm circulatory arrest period to allow metaboreflex activation in the absence of exercise and chemoreflex activation.
Results: Older subjects had higher resting MSNA (38 ± 12 vs 23 ± 9 bursts per minute; P < 0.01) and BP (P < 0.001). Heart rate, minute ventilation, and blood lactate did not differ (all P > 0.5). MSNA responses to HG in normoxia (P < 0.05) and in hypoxia (P < 0.05) were smaller in the older subjects, but were similar during hypoxia alone. The increase in HR was smaller in the older subjects for all interventions (all P < 0.05). In contrast, the increase in systolic and diastolic BP, VE, and BL were similar in both groups (P > 0.05). During the local circulatory arrest, MSNA and BP remained elevated in both groups after HG in normoxia (P < 0.01) and in hypoxia (P < 0.01), but MSNA changes were smaller in the older subjects (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Aging reduces sympathetic reactivity to isometric handgrip, but does not prevent the metaboreceptors to remain the main determinant of sympathetic activation during exercise in hypoxia.

Q. My subordinate made a $2 million miscalculation on a proposal. Of course, the client accepted the proposal and we're stuck. My boss thinks this is my failure to manage the subordinate properly. I think we should approach the client and explain it was a mistake and renegotiate. My boss says it's entirely up to me to correct the mistake. I think I should fire my subordinate. What do you think?
A. If your sub does a good job ordinarily I wouldn't fire him. This really is your problem. Don't you remember Harry Truman's, "The buck stops here?" If you value your rep in the office, stop dodging and solve the problem. Otherwise you may lose the business! If that happens your job is to find profitable work with different clients. An honest, humble approach to the client is worth a try. If you have a long-term relationship with the client it should be important to both of you to work this out. In the meantime it would be good to talk to your subordinate about checking with you before the final document goes out. See Robert Townsend in Up the Organization, a book full of wisdom you need. He also agrees with Harry. Consider that the time you spend training your subordinate, giving feedback, and correcting performance is as important to you as it is to him or her.

Fit Pregnancy
Week 17
This is day number 116 and I'm 17 weeks pregnant!
I'm feeling Good. Yep, I've been in a pretty good mood lately. This pregnancy feels like it's sort of moving along. But I am so emotional that its crazy! I have never felt this way. Where's the directions to the insane asylum? Because I'm about headed there. I'm too emotional to socialize in public. Oh, by the way, my new favorite channel is Lifetime. Love the movies!
The other day after dinner my husband and I were cleaning up and I asked him to throw out the trash. He said that he would do it later because their was a basketball game on TV that he didn't want to miss. Something that I don't care too much about. Anyway, I got so upset that he wouldn't do it right then and there that I began to cry. I went on to say that he doesn't care about me and my needs. (Like throwing out the trash is an important personal need!). I just wanted to get the kitchen clean and didn't want it to smell like garbage. I even cried out, "You don't love" and "You don't find me beautiful anymore!" Just to upset me more he just smiled, laughed and began to apologize in a sweet voice. Then he took out the garbage. I began crying even more because I felt like an idiot for making such a big deal!
By the way, I have not felt the baby move yet. Anytime I get indigestion or gas or anything I stop to see if it could be my baby. The Doctor said that I should feel my baby move any day now and that everything is normal. I feel like I'm stressing myself out about this. I know that can't be good for the baby.
We decided, my husband and I, that we will not find out the baby's sex until birth. I just think that would be even more exciting. Now, we just need to narrow down on a boy's and girl's name.
Fetal Development: This is a period of rapid growth as the fat begins to form underneath the baby's skin. Baby and placenta are about equal in size now. The tiny heart is pumping as much as 25 quarts of blood a day! The reflexes are probably in place now as the baby sucks, swallows and blinks!
Maternal Changes: The uterus is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches below your belly button. The baby is going through a growth spurt and chances are, you may be gaining too! Average weight gain is between five and ten pounds at this point. Feeling fluttering in your uterus means that you may be feeling your baby move... any time now!

Nightmare Metal Fest -- New Port Richey, FL -- March 21st-22nd, 2008
Alright, my ears are still ringing and my I'm still dead tired but I'll try to write a good review of this weekend.
Me and the rest of the band got to Bourbon Street at around 5:00, and started loading all of our gear up onstage. During and after, we started introducing ourselves to the other bands that were there, Sacred Dawn, and Order Of Nine. REALLY great guys, it was awesome hanging out with them all weekend. After a while of everyone arriving and so on, at around 7:30 it was our time to hit the stage. We played really well, and everyone was really impressed with us, being a local band and all. I was really happy with how it went. Here's our setlist for anyone who's interested...
Intro: Davy Jones by Hans Zimmer
01. Zero Hour
02. Godhead
03. Let Osiris Be The Judge
04. Burn The Marionette
05. Rebel Yell ( Billy Idol cover )
06. Final Stand
07. Shades Of Twilight
After our set, we started unloading our guitars and everything and mingling with the other bands and fans. We actaully were asked to sign some stuff, and take some pictures with people, it was pretty awesome.
SACRED DAWN took the stage during that time, and I was pretty busy unloading and talking to people but I still caught quite a bit of their set. They sounded great, and I wish I would've gotten to pay more attention. Unfortuneatly, I'm not familiar enough with their stuff to give you a setlist, but if you are into prog/power and these guys are ever in your area, go see them! You won't be dissapointed. (
After a short break of SACRED DAWN unloading their gear, ORDER OF NINE hit the stage. I had been looking forward to these guys since I heard their songs on myspace a few weeks ago. They also sounded really great, and I was really impressed by their performance. They're pretty heavy for power metal, but still maintain the melody that makes the genre. They actually want us to come to Pennsylvania to play 2-3 shows with them up there, so we're looking into doing that. I actually got the setlist off the stage for ORDER OF NINE, but I don't have it on me. Once I get it, I'll updated this with their setlist.
While DISASTERPEACE were setting up, our bass player introduced me to Sean from Cage, and I hung out over by the merch with him and Michael. I asked them about playing "Eyes Of The Obsidian" but they said they wouldn't be doing it tonight because it's the only song in that tuning and it requires bringing an extra guitar. Incredibly nice guys, and were really cool to hang out with. But as the time drew nearer for DISASTERPEACE to come on, I went up to the floor. DISASTERPEACE were awesome. My only complaint is that almost the entire set was covers, but Wade NAILED the King Diamond songs, and Pete's guitar playing was excellent, so overall it was still very enjoyable. The originals they did sounded very promising as well, I'm really looking forward to their debut, due late '08 - early '09. Here's the DISASTERPEACE setlist. In parenthesis are the respective bands the songs were orignally done by. (
01. Judas Witch ( Original )
02. War Of The Worlds ( Crimson Glory )
03. Astronomica ( Crimson Glory )
04. Welcome Home ( King Diamond )
05. The Invisible Guests ( King Diamond )
06. Tea ( King Diamond )
07. Twilight Symphony ( King Diamond )
08. Crow ( Original )
09. At The Graves ( King Diamond )
And finally, it was time for CAGE to play. I had been waiting for this since the day I saw them announced for the festival, and I grabbed a spot right up against the stage. They were absolutely incredible. I was banging my head the entire set, and singing along at the top of my lungs. Anyone who has ever seen CAGE live I think can vouch for me that they are just fucking awesome live. Sean didn't tone down his vocals a bit, nailing all those wailing falsetto screams and the band was extremely tight as well, except Dave was having some guitar problems. He broke a string, but it got taken care of, and was really hardly noticable. I'm really happy they finally made it over to the East coast, and we got to share the stage with them. Best band of the weekend for me by far. Here's the CAGE setlist. (
01. Fire And Metal
02. Rise Of The Beast
03. I Am The King
04. Shoot To Kill
05. Kill The Devil
06. Hell Destroyer
07. Metal Devil
08. Chupacabra
09. Final Solution
10. King Diamond
11. Wings Of Destruction
An so that concluded the first day of the festival. Got home around 3:30 and got up the next day for the Eat & Greet at 10:00. Day 2 review coming soon...

The 2012-13 Miami Heat need a great a deal of production from Chris Bosh if they are to repeat as NBA champions—but what they don't need from him is to be the squad's No. 2 scoring option.
That role should still belong to offensive savant Dwyane Wade.
Bosh definitely needs to shoulder more of the offensive load with an aging Wade on the roster; however, for a variety of reasons, the Heat will be more successful this upcoming season if Wade is the clear-cut No.2 option behind LeBron James and ahead of Bosh.

Canada produced 60 million close to 67 million tonnes (Mt) of coal in 2012. 31 million tonnes was metallurgical (steel-making) coal and 36 million tonnes (Mt) was thermal coal. The majority of coal produced in Canada was produced in Alberta and B.C.
- Alberta produced 28.3 Mt of coal in 2012
- British Columbia produced 28.8 Mt (most was metallurgical coal) – 43% of all production
To meet its rapid infrastructure growth and consumer demand for things such as vehicles and home appliances, Asia has turned to Canada for its high-quality steel-making coal. As Canada's largest coal trading partner, coal exports to Asia accounted for 73% of total exports in 2010.
Steel-Making Coal
Global steel production is dependent on coal and more and more the world is turning to Canada for its supply of quality steel-making coal.
- The production of steel -making coal increased by 5.5% from 29.5 Mt in 2011 to 31.1 Mt in 2012.
- Almost all of Canada's steel-making coal produced was exported.
Thermal Coal
- Approximately 36 million tonnes of thermal coal was produced in 2012.
- The vast majority of Canadian thermal coal produced is used domestically.

"An unquestionably groovy place to be" Sunday Times
The theatre was reopened by Lesley Ackland and Martin Witts in August 2008 with a 12 week run of motor mouth US comedienne Joan Rivers... soon establishing itself as one of London's foremost comedy venues playing host to the major comedy talent of the today including Bill Bailey, Michael McIntrye, Joan Rivers, Roseanne Barr, Sandra Bernhard, Mark Little, Julian Clary, Russell Howard, Richard Herring and annual seasons with Doug Stanhope and Stewart Lee.
The theatre has anillustrious history as a live music venue. As the 'Cavern in the Town' in the Sixties, Beat group The Small Faces had a regular residency. In the 1970s, as the Notre Dame Hall, The Rolling Stones played there along with The Who. But punk ruled supreme and the venue hosted some riotous early landmark gigs by The Sex Pistols. The Clash previewed their "London Calling" material there in 1979 before recording the seminal album the following month. Therefore it wasn't long before music started playing a vital role in the theatres programming. Macy Gray, Boy George, Tommy Emmanuel, John Mayall, Michael Feinstien, Dame Cleo Laine, Hazel O'Connor, David McAlmont, Ruby Turner and Tony Christie are just a handful of names that have played the theatre in the last few years.
Our programming isn't restricted to the big names - we think it's important (and exciting too) to bring in brilliant up-and-coming artists and the cult names of the underground. You won't recognise all the names on our website but you'll certainly be hearing more from them soon.
'Since opening Leicester Square Theatre in 2008 the venue has become one London's first choice venues for comedy, cabaret and music. Over the last 2 years we have quickly built a massively loyal audience. I think the success of the last 2 years is down to the venues location, a great team constantly in touch with our audience and the theatre style setting. It's a great venue for upcoming and established talent and the feedback from artists is always positive which is proved time and time again with return shows. The intimacy of the venue creates an atmosphere that isn't always easy to create in a concert hall and that's why I think the big names keep coming back.' Martin Witts

|Krenim weapon ship
|Krenim Imperium
|22nd century - 24th century (alternate timeline)
|Warp 6 (maximum)
|Temporal weapon, directed energy weapons
|Temporal core kept the vessel impervious to conventional weapons
The Krenim weapon ship was a weapon developed by the Krenim Imperium some time prior to 2174. Its design and construction was spearheaded by Annorax, a military temporal scientist.
Method of operation Edit
Its main weapon was a beam that pushed objects out of the spacetime continuum, effectively erasing them from history. Careful and meticulous calculations were required to create the exact changes in the timeline that were desired. The ship could be deployed against an entire species by firing the weapon on the species' homeworld, pushing the species out of the spacetime continuum. This caused a causality paradox; all of history the species played any part in would be altered.
The following gallery is an illustration of the method of operation, in which the weapon was used against a colony.
Capabilities and limitations Edit
The ship obtained its power to affect time from its temporal core. When in operation, the core also kept the ship, and everything and everyone on it, outside of normal space-time. This rendered the ship immune to all conventional weapons and protected the crew from the flow of time, effectively rendering them immortal. Perhaps because of this, the ship's conventional defenses were rather limited. Furthermore, the vessel's great mass prevented it from exceeding warp 6. (VOY: "Year of Hell", "Year of Hell, Part II")
Deployment Edit
The first use of this weapon ship was in a temporal incursion against the Rilnar. The Rilnar had removed the Krenim Imperium as the dominant power in that region of space. Thus an alternate timeline was created in which the Krenim Imperium remained the dominant power. However, there was an unfortunate side effect, unexpected by Annorax: the Rilnar had introduced a vital antibody against a certain disease into the Krenim physiology. The erasure of the Rilnar also therefore erased the antibody, and without it, fifty million Krenim died of the disease. Annorax therefore attempted to undo the erasure with another incursion. But this incursion caused him extreme personal loss: the Krenim colony at Kyana Prime was erased, and with it, his beloved wife.
The weapon ship remained in operation for the next 200 years as Annorax, obsessed with restoring the Kyana Prime colony, and with it, his wife, altered history repeatedly, causing one causality paradox after another. Known species it was used against were the Zahl, the Garenor, the Ram Izad, the Malkoth, and the Alsuran.
Use against Voyager Edit
The weapon ship was also employed against the Federation starship USS Voyager (Component 049 Beta in their calculations). Voyager had been passing through what in a previous timeline had been Zahl space when Annorax used the weapon to erase the Zahl, turning Zahl space into Krenim space. Attacked repeatedly by Krenim warships using chroniton torpedoes against which their deflector shields were useless, they were forced to develop temporal shields to use against the torpedoes. These shields disrupted the precise calculations Annorax' crew had made to direct the results of their temporal incursion against the Garenor. This caused the incursion to "miss"; instead of the desired results, that is, the restoration of all of Krenim territory, including Kyana Prime, a timeline was created in which the Krenim Imperium never existed at all. This was, of course, totally unacceptable, and thus Annorax turned the weapon on Voyager. Voyager, however, was able to escape by going to warp speed, taking advantage of its faster warp capability to outrun the weapon ship.
Self-erasure Edit
The weapon ship itself was eventually erased from history when Voyager, all but destroyed by Krenim attacks, led a small fleet, composed of two Mawasi cruisers and three Nihydron warships, against it. Tired of the seemingly endless and futile mission, some of the crew, led by Annorax' second in command, Obrist, shut down the temporal core. This caused the ship to phase back into normal space time, so that conventional weapons could affect it. Though the vessel's conventional weapons were limited, they were still enough to overpower the attackers.
However, Voyager's captain, Kathryn Janeway, was aware of the exact location of the ship's temporal core. Alone on her ship after being forced to order the rest of her crew to abandon ship due to its ruined state, she piloted it into that section in a kamikaze attack, causing the core to destabilize. This exploded the weapon ship and, moreover, caused a temporal incursion that erased the ship itself from history, and with it, every one of the alterations in the timeline it had ever made.
Ironically, this had the effect of accomplishing exactly that which Annorax had been attempting to do; Kyana Prime was never erased, and Annorax never lost his wife. (VOY: "Year of Hell", "Year of Hell, Part II")de:Zeitwaffenschiff

The Story
In the summer of 2012, a well-respected university and sociology journal together handed the religious right a weapon in the marriage wars, dressed up as academic discourse.
On June 10, 2012, Social Science Research's website went live with "How Different Are the Adult Children of Parents Who Have Same-Sex Relationships? Findings from the New Family Structures Study," written by University of Texas at Austin associate sociology professor Mark Regnerus, and "Same-sex parenting and children's outcomes: A closer examination of the American psychological associations' brief on lesbian and gay parenting," written by Loren D. Marks, an associate professor in the School of Human Ecology at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.
The intention of Marks' research review was to slam the American Psychological Association's position that same-sex parenting is not harmful to children and to take down 30 years of scientific research showing that having gay or lesbian parents does not predispose children for negative sociological outcomes. Marks blasted most of the 59 studies cited by the APA for involving small, convenience sampling (where subjects are selected by the researcher because they are close at hand or otherwise easy to access), – among other criticisms. The problem with these studies, Marks argued, was that most of them were not large, random, or population-based.
The intention of Regnerus' study – which was funded to the tune of nearly $800,000 by the conservative Witherspoon Institute and Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation – was to present the large, random, population-based study that Marks lamented was missing from the academic literature on same-sex parenting. And to the delight of the religious right community, Regnerus claimed his study found negative outcomes for the children who said one of their parents engaged in a "same-sex romantic relationship" at some point during their childhoods.
Regnerus' study was billed as a study of family structures, and it did compare the outcomes of children from some family structures, such as those involving intact biological parents, step parents, adoptive parents, and single parents. But the group that was the focus of the study – same-sex families – was not characterized by family structure, but by relationship behavior. Thus, children raised by two always-married biological parents were then compared to children raised in a family where a parent had a same-sex relationship, regardless of the family structure.
Using an outside research group, Regnerus screened more than 15,000 randomly sampled Americans. Of those, he surveyed about 3,000 young adults between the ages 18 and 39, asking how they fared among a series of social, emotional, behavioral, and economic outcomes, such as marital status, employment status, income level, criminal history, sexual orientation, suicidal tendencies, experience with sexual abuse, experience with drug and alcohol abuse, and overall happiness.
Only the respondents who said their biological parents did not remain married throughout their childhoods were asked if their mothers or fathers had ever had a same-sex romantic relationship. If the respondent claimed his or her mother had a same-sex relationship, that mother was termed a "lesbian mother"; if the respondent said his or her father had a same-sex relationship, that father was termed a "gay father."
In the end, Regnerus came up with 163 "lesbian mothers" and 73 "gay fathers." However, he found only two cases in which the mom and her partner were together for 18 years. He only found six cases wherein the mom and her partner were together for 10 or more years, 18 cases where the mom and mom and her partner were together for five years. In the majority of the entire sample of "lesbian mothers," respondents reported living with their mother and their mother's partner for less than a year or never living with the mother's partner. Within the "gay fathers" sample, respondents rarely reported living with their father for very long and never living with their father and father's parent for more than three years.
What bound these supposed products of same-sex families was instability, because regardless of how long they lived with their supposed gay parents, Regnerus threw them all in the same bucket with the common variable of having had a parent who had a same-sex relationship. He compared this bucket to another bucket of kids who grew up with the same mother and father for at least 18 years. That the latter group turned out to have fared better is not surprising considering they enjoyed a life of stability in comparison to the former.
Moreover, all of the young adults in the sample were born between 1971 and 1994, during a time when anti-LGBT animus was the societal norm. Not only was gay marriage illegal in every state, but gay sex was illegal in many states. Many of the "same-sex families" in Regnerus' study likely resulted from dissolved unions formed by gay and lesbians trying to lead heterosexual lives.
The New Family Structures Study fell under intense scrutiny because of these methodical flaws and because it was financed by two conservative groups with ties to the major anti-marriage-equality movement. (Though Regnerus assured his readers and the press that the study's funders had no hands in designing or producing the study, it would later be learned this was not the full truth.)
But more disturbing than the study's misleading results is how the study has been grossly mischaracterized to push an anti-LGBT-rights agenda throughout the world. In same-sex marriage debates around state legislatures and in U.S. courts, lawmakers and social conservative groups have repeatedly misrepresented this study as research on same-sex couple parents compared to two biological parents
The way Regnerus laid out his findings were indeed misleading. Though he was careful to note in his original paper that he studied children whose parents had a same-sex romantic relationship, rather than same-sex couple parents, at several points in the paper Regnerus referenced this group as "the children of same-sex parents," which to the casual reader indicates two gay dads or two lesbian mothers. Furthermore, at the end of his paper, Regnerus concluded that it his study "clearly reveals that children appear most apt to succeed well as adults – on multiple counts and across a variety of domains – when they spend their entire childhood with their married mother and father, and especially when the parents remain married to the present day."
Regnerus has declined to the call out anti-gay-marriage advocates for misinterpreting his research, with the exception of how his study has been used in Russia – where lawmakers have cited it to prohibit gay couples from adopting Russian orphans and to seize children from the gay parents.
And though Regnerus has maintained that his study was driven by data rather than ideology, he has since gone on to testify against same-sex marriage – using his study's findings – in legislative hearings and in amicus briefs submitted in the federal same-sex marriage cases decided this summer.
Regnerus' own professional body, the American Sociological Study, has denounced his study for its flaws and its misuse in former and ongoing same-sex-marriage cases.
In 2010, conception for what would eventually be called the "New Family Structures Study," was under way. At the time, University of Virginia associate sociology professor W. Bradford Wilcox, who had been a fellow with the Princeton, N.J.-based Witherspoon Institute since 2004, was the director of the Witherspoon's Program on Family, Marriage, and Democracy, where the study was conceptualized. The Witherspoon's tax-exempt form for 2010 noted that one of the biggest accomplishments of this program for that year was "the initiation of the New Family Structure Study."
Wilcox recruited several scholars to work on the project, including University of Texas professor Mark Regnerus, who was eventually chosen to be the study's principal investigator, though he had no research background in LGBT family issues.
Wilcox later worked on as a paid consultant on the study – and evidence indicates he likely peer-reviewed the resulting paper in Social Science Research. Thus, Regnerus' and Witherspoon's repeated assertions that the study's funders were not directly involved in the design and implementation of the New Family Structures Study are patently false.
We know now that the study's funders financed this project with a specific goal in mind: to produce evidence that could be used to argue against same-sex marriage, particularly with the anticipation that the U.S. Supreme Court would eventually hear cases involving same-sex marriage. Records that were later obtained through public records requests through the University of Texas show that soon after Regnerus joined the New Family Structures Study team, Witherspoon President Luis E. Tellez told Regnerus that he wanted the study to be done rather quickly so that the results could be published before the Supreme Court had a chance to rule on same-sex marriage.
"Naturally we would like to move along as expeditiously as possible but experience suggests we ought not to get hung up with deadlines, do what is right and best, move on it, don't dilly dolly, etc.," Tellez wrote in a Sept. 22, 2010, email. "It would be great to have this before major decisions of the Supreme Court but that is secondary to the need to do this and do it well. I would like you to take ownership and think of how would you want it done, rather than someone like me dictating parameters but of course, here to help."
In a fundraising letter dated April 5, 2011, to the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, which ended up granting $90,000 to the New Family Structures Study, Tellez noted the urgency of getting the study published.
"It is essential that the necessary data be gathered to settle the question in the forum of public debate about what kinds of family arrangement are best for society," Tellez wrote. "That is what the NFSS is designed to do. Our first goal is to seek the truth, whatever that may turn out to be. Nevertheless, we are confident that the traditional understanding of marriage will be vindicated by this study as long as it is done honestly and well."
Tellez's wish was granted. Regnerus' paper was published in a well-respected sociology journal in June 2012. The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to take up two legal cases involving same-sex-marriage only in December 2012. Starting the day after Regnerus' study was published on through when the court heard oral arguments in March 2013, conservative groups pushed out amicus briefs citing Regnerus' study in arguments to ban same-sex marriage and to uphold the Defense of Marriage Act – which at the time denied federal marriage benefits to legally married gay and lesbian couples.
In the end, the Supreme Court struck down the section of the DOMA that barred federal recognition of same-sex marriage and dismissed an appeal over California's same-sex marriage ban (effectively legalizing same-sex marriage in the state). And the high court did not consider citations of the New Family Structures Study in its written argument, though Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia briefly alluded to "considerable disagreement among … sociologists as to what the consequences of raising a child in a -- in a single-sex family, whether that is harmful to the child or not" during oral arguments in the California case.
And yet, the damage caused by Regnerus' flawed, misleading study carries on. To read more about the negative impacts Regnerus' study has had on the LGBT community worldwide, click here.
The road to Mark Regnerus' paper began years earlier, when religious right intellectuals began plotting how to use academic research to make a legal case against same- sex marriage. Academic research was needed because it was becoming increasingly difficult to make non-religious arguments against same-sex marriage that an average judge would buy.
It was a series of meetings among social-conservative scholars that led to the publication of an influential short book titled, Marriage and the Public Good: Ten Principles, published in 2008 by the Witherspoon Institute and signed by and many of the leaders of the movement to fight same-sex marriage in America, including Robert P. George, who co-founded the Witherspoon Institute and National Organization for Marriage, and Jennifer Roback Morse, who founded NOM's Ruth Institute. On the issue of same-sex marriage, the Ten Principles predicted that future academic research would show that "children reared by same-sex parents will experience greater difficulties with their identity, sexuality, attachments to kin, and marital prospects as adults, among other things." But at the time there was no legitimate scientific research proving this point.
The Witherspoon Institute attempted to prove this hypothesis in the study it financed a few years later, and though Regnerus' New Family Structures Study did not really study children raised by intact same-sex couple parents, Witherspoon and its allies have promoted the study as if that were the case.
Before Regnerus study was published, it was the Ten Principles that was frequently cited in court cases and legislative hearings to oppose same-sex marriage. But the claims against same-sex marriage in this old Witherspoon book were not based on scientific fact; whereas, Regnerus' paper is billed as legitimate scientific research and is thus a more powerful tool.
Questions remain as to how and why such a flawed study was published in a respected sociology journal at breakneck pace, but we do have some answers.
Regnerus submitted his study for review in February 2012. He told the Social Science Research Editor James D. Wright he was looking for a speedy review in order to beat a report from the funders detailing the study's results. At Wright's request, Regnerus submitted a list of potential reviewers, which is commonplace at many sociology journals. Wright, a sociology professor at the University of Central Florida, then went to scholars and asked for a two- to three-week turnaround, which is largely unheard of in the world of scholarly peer review; because scholars are often university professors or have busy schedules, they are given several months to review the paper. Wright secured the reviews that came in quickly and the paper was accepted for publication within six weeks, published just a few months later. The other articles published in that same issue of Social Science Research were submitted, on average, at least a year before.
But it turns out that two out of the three peer reviewers who green-lighted the paper for publication were connected to the study.
Internal emails and documents obtained through public records requests show that even before Regnerus completed the research, the Witherspoon Institute was angling to make the research public. Regnerus therefore sought to protect himself and "limit criticism (at least a little bit)" by having the study peer-reviewed and published first. Just after Regnerus submitted his paper for review, he reached out to Pennsylvania State University sociology professor Paul Amato and informed him he put his name on a list of reviewer candidates. Regnerus encouraged Amato to accept, offering a few words of flattery.
"I'd hope that if you're asked to review it you would consider doing so," Regnerus emailed. "I think you're one of the fairest, level-headed scholars out there in this domain."
Financial records show the University of Texas paid Amato about $3,000 for early consulting work. Amato has said publicly that he divulged to Wright his association with Regnerus and his work on the study but told Wright it would not prevent him from judging the study fairly. He has since criticized the misuse of the study's results to oppose LGBT rights.
Amato was not the only peer reviewer with a potential conflict to review and approve Regnerus' paper.
Southern Illinois University sociology department chair Darren Sherkat, who sits on the journal's editorial advisory board and led an internal audit into the peer review of Regnerus' paper, filed a public-records request with the University of Texas in order to figure out which paid consultants had also been reviewers. A request of his request revealed invoices for consultant fees for two paid consultants: Amato and University of Virginia sociology professor W. Bradford Wilcox, who played myriad roles on the project and whose undisclosed ties with the Witherspoon Foundation contradicted assurances from Regnerus and Witherspoon that the study's funders were not involved in design or implementation of the research. This summer Wright told Inside Higher Ed that he asked Wilcox to review the paper and, despite his stated involvement as a paid consultant, he was "asked to proceed."
Records also show that Wilcox, who also sits on Social Science Research's editorial advisory board, had the idea to pitch Regnerus' paper to Wright because he was a friend of the late Steven Nock, a sociologist out of the University of Virginia, who testified against legalizing same-sex marriage in Canada in 2001. In his written testimony, Nock criticized the standing, mostly favorable, research on same-sex marriage. He described it as fatally flawed because most of the studies used small, convenience sampling, rather than a large national random sample study measuring the outcomes of the children of gay couple parents – which is what the New Family Structures Study had claimed to be.

I ship Almond Milk from the US to Singapore, yes I do. Almond milk is readily available here but its very expensive we go through tons of it each week. I save $20 for every 5 cartons purchased vs buying 5 cartons at my local health food store. If you found my review of this product helpful to you or for your family, please click "YES".
Nowhere in Switzerland or Germany you can find an almond milk without sweeteners, but here I found a delicious, refreshing product with a decent taste.
Free of carrageenan

I can find almond milk from other brands in my local supermarket, but they all contain carrageenan. I've tried all of the flavors of almond milk from Tree of Life. This one is my favorite! I drink it plain and also add it to my smoothies and oats. It's nice to be able to buy it without sweetener!

Definitely less sweet but not too bland that it taste like water. I have this with my cereal in the morning and I like how you have the power to alter the sweetness of your cereal according to one's preferences.
Salty taste

Brie Zeltner: Vania Mahon has been using daily meditation to control her seizures for about two years. She doesn't take any medication.
But her seizures, which came on suddenly in the summer of 2009 after a bout of bad headaches, are not typical seizures.
Mahon, 41, of Willowick, has psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, or PNES, a diagnosis that is surprisingly common and can lead to many people being misdiagnosed with epilepsy.
Thirty percent to 40 percent of epilepsy patients in hospital monitoring units actually have PNES. While those patients often appear to be having seizures, there is no abnormal electrical activity in the brain, meaning that the seizurelike activity, while not consciously controlled, is psychological in … Read more »
