Why doesn't it work for me??? The first 3 video screens are blank and won't load at all, the fourth one I can see but no volume, and that's not the one with John! Waaah Anyone on Firefox able to see them?
John you seemed to be a natural on camera. Pies looked excellent as always, and setup was very professional looking. If she would have interviewed me, I would have been like Ralph Kramden in the Chef of the Future episode of the Honeymooners. Great publicity and exposure for sure.

At Computex Taipei 2010, OCZ Technology has demonstrated the latest addition into its already broad solid-state drives lineup. The new product is intended for PCI Express bus and employs two SandForce controllers in RAID mode for absolutely maximum performance. Despite of rather unbelievable characteristics, OCZ calls the drive "affordable", yet, does not reveal the actual price tag.
OCZ RevoDrive SSD with 120GB or 240GB capacity sports two SandForce SF-1200 controllers operating in RAID mode in order to boost performance of the storage device. Thanks to such solution, the PCI Express x4-based SSD designed for high-performance gaming PCs and workstations offers up to 540MB/s read, up to 530MB/s write speed and up to 75 000 IOPS
The manufacturer recommends to use this multi-level cell (MLC) flash-based solid-state drive as bootable device since it guarantees maximum performance possible. Unfortunately, due to usage of RAID mode, the SSD no longer supports Trim function and its intense usage as a primary storage device will inevitably lower its performance rather dramatically over time. Nonetheless, usage of RevoDrive only to boot an operating system seems to be a nice solution for environments where boot time is crucial.
The family of SSDs within OCZ's product range has been growing rather rapidly in the last couple of years. But it remains to be seen whether such "special-purpose" drives like RevoDrive can become successful. At the end of the day, even MLC-based solid-state drives remain quite expensive and far not all performance-minded users would like to experiment by paying vast amounts of money. Nonetheless, the demand for SSDs is clearly growing, at Computex 2010 OCZ is focused on storage in much higher degree than its traditional memory and power supply businesses.
"Computex is always a good opportunity to showcase our latest solutions to both our clients and trade press and this year we have a complete range of solid state drive solutions that further push the envelope," commented Ryan Petersen, chief executive officer of the OCZ Technology Group.

Federal funds are available
Brenda Jo Gillund, West Fargo
The American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network strongly encourages North Dakota to take full advantage of the federal funds available to provide thousands of families managing a chronic disease like cancer with lifesaving health coverage through the Medicaid program.
The federal government will pay 100 percent of the cost of expanding access to Medicaid coverage in the first three years, and no less than 90 percent of the cost beginning in 2020. Increasing access to Medicaid coverage could save the state millions of taxpayer dollars that are currently used to treat uninsured people in emergency rooms. These savings can only be realized if the legislature accepts the federal dollars available for this purpose.
We have the opportunity to cover 32,000 low-income North Dakotans providing them the security of quality health coverage so they can see a doctor regularly and get lifesaving cancer screenings and treatment when they need it, without facing huge medical bills. We can also significantly reduce the number of uninsured with incomes at or below 133 percent of the federal poverty level ($30,657 for a family of four) who know they are one diagnosis away from financial ruin.
Increased coverage will help to improve public health and reduce the cancer burden in North Dakota. ACS CAN urges policymakers in North Dakota to accept the money to cover more people and save taxpayer dollars by fully expanding access to Medicaid coverage.

Ph.D., Claremont Graduate University
I've always been interested in building – whether as a young boy building model airplanes or as an adult during my original career in the construction industry. I enjoy the process of creating practical artifacts. However, I began to realize that what seemed rather easy and intuitive to me – building systems, whether actual physical systems or information technology systems – was not necessarily easy or intuitive for most people. This realization has informed my research and development and teaching goals.
On the research and development side, I've been involved in many projects over the past decade. Many, but not all, of these projects have involved the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies – my main research focus area. Specifically, I'm interested in spatial information system development and the use of emerging technologies in information system development.
On the teaching side, I developed and implemented the GIS Solution Development specialization within the MSIST degree at CISAT. This specialization is designed to meet the educational needs of people who want careers developing transformative GIS solutions for organizations. The specialization is technical in its focus and is designed to develop the knowledge and skills needed to create these applications. Recently, we initiated the Advanced GIS Lab at CISAT. The Lab draws on t he strengths of our existing efforts in GIS. It is my expectation and hope that the Lab will spark the same interest in building artifacts that I have in others and will help to support their educational journey.

SALT LAKE CITY – The hydration innovators at CamelBak® are once again breaking new ground with the first complete line of hydration gear specifically designed for Stand Up Paddle (SUP).
Engineered from the inside out, the three new category-defining SUP hydration solutions demonstrate CamelBak's continued commitment to research, development and innovation. CamelBak designers and engineers worked with pro paddler Slater Trout to ensure all essential technical elements were included, such as quick-drying materials, paddle holsters, safety whistles, easy access cargo pockets, reflectivity and additional storage for an inflatable personal flotation device.
"We wanted to create a product line that would fill the current need for proper hydration solutions for SUP," said Jon Austen, Director of Product Management at CamelBak. "At CamelBak we are continuously reinventing the way people hydrate and perform by developing products that meet specific sport requirements. Our new SUP line is a great example of this."
SUP, the fastest growing global water sport, was born in the Hawaiian Islands. The CamelBak Molokai™, named after the famed island in the Hawaiian archipelago that annually hosts one of the most famous SUP races in the world, is specifically engineered for long-distance paddling. Along with quick access to cargo, and an external fill for the 2L Antidote™ Reservoir with Quick Link™, Molokai includes new harness customization that allows people with different torso lengths to adjust for optimum reservoir and sternum slider placement.
Drawing inspiration from the needs of SUP racers, the Baja LR™ vest will support the most epic SUP treks. The new 2L Antidote Lumbar Reservoir stabilizes water weight on the hips, leaving shoulders free to paddle. The new harness customization not only allows for perfect placement, but the lumbar compression allows paddlers to adjust the reservoir as water is consumed, keeping it tight against the body.
Tahoe LR™ is designed as the ideal pack for leisure and sport paddlers. This waist-mounted pack also includes the Antidote Lumbar Reservoir, leaving the upper body completely free to stroke and the Camel Clip™ Bite Valve positioner allows for quick access to water.
Molokai (MSRP $100), Baja LR (MSRP $120) and Tahoe LR (MSRP $70) will be on display in the CamelBak Outdoor Retailer booth in Salt Lake City (#15027) August 4-7. They will arrive at specialty retailers in February.

On July 4, 2011, the U. S. Embassy in Dakar celebrated our country's independence by commemorating two very special 50th anniversaries, those of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the U.S. Peace Corps. Ambassador Marcia Bernicat welcomed guests at the Meridien President Hotel in Dakar. As dusk drew near, hundreds of people gathered around the hotel's swimming pool to listen to Ambassador Bernicat's Independence Day message.
Ambassador Bernicat began her speech by recalling the bravery of our founding fathers 235 years ago. She reminded us how, "with the benefit of 235 years of freedom, most of us have forgotten just how radical the words 'unalienable rights' and 'all men are created equal' sounded when a courageous group of men ratified the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776."
Ambassador Bernicat recognized that in countries, such as Senegal, it can be difficult for people to "pursue happiness or take advantage of the 'blessings of liberty' if they don't have food on their plate or clean water to drink."
Thankfully, fifty years ago, President John F. Kennedy decided that we needed to transform our ideals into action, and he worked with the U. S. Congress to create USAID and the Peace Corps.
In Senegal, USAID and the Peace Corps have championed the cause of universal coverage, blanketing more than half the country with mosquito nets, which is expected to contribute directly to a continuing decline of malaria cases in the country. Under our USAID education program, we have worked together with the Government of Senegal to complete a new middle school curriculum that is now being rolled out across the country. We have constructed 86 new schools, and helped middle school enrollment go from 19.65 percent to 45 percent in eight years. In this way, we have helped 50,000 vulnerable children complete at least their basic education.
We also have an amazing Peace Corps program. With more than 230 volunteers spread throughout the country, Senegal is the biggest Peace Corps program in Africa. Volunteers make clean water available to villages. They help entrepreneurs build new businesses and create jobs. They are helping Senegal feed itself, working with farmers to enhance their productivity and building hundreds of school and community gardens. And this year, to honor those who have served as Peace Corps Volunteers worldwide over the past 50 years, our Volunteers and their communities will plant and protect 200,000 trees across Senegal, one for every Peace Corps Volunteer who has ever served.
Fifty years is a big accomplishment, and we at the U.S. Embassy were proud to be able to celebrate these accomplishments with our Senegalese friends and colleagues.

It has been quite awhile since I last posted to the blog. I very much regret the extended silence, but I assure you it wasn't a result of inattention or lack of motivation.
Since 12:51 p.m. on Tuesday, February 22, we at the embassy have laser-focused our attention and efforts on responding to the Christchurch earthquake. As I will describe below, when a natural disaster or other crisis strikes, an embassy has a wide range of critical functions to perform, and those activities necessarily push everything else off the table for awhile.
As those of you who follow me on Twitter know, about a dozen of my colleagues and I were in Christchurch February 20-22 for the U.S.-New Zealand Partnership Forum at the AMI Stadium, along with almost 200 other attendees. The forum convenes every 18 months, alternating between Washington and New Zealand, to discuss bilateral and business topics. There are usually 50 official delegates from each country, plus spouses and a variety of presenters and observers.
This year's event drew the largest and most impressive American delegation to visit New Zealand in decades, and perhaps ever. We had attendees who currently serve or have previously served as Senator, Congressman, Governor, Ambassador, U.S. Trade Representative, Deputy Secretary of State, Assistant Secretary of State, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security, Admiral, miliary service chief, and presidents and CEOs of Fortune 500 companies.
In addition, we had the first-ever Future Partners Forum, a parallel conference that brought together 11 Kiwi students (mostly members of our university-based American Ambassador Advisors groups) and 11 American students (Fulbright Scholars posted in New Zealand) to discuss the same topics as the official delegates. The Future Partners met at AMI Stadium in a room adjacent to the main forum and participated in certain plenary sessions with everyone else.
I had the great honor of joining Prime Minister Key in making opening keynote addresses to the main Partnership Forum, and then the great pleasure of greeting the students and opening the Future Partners Forum.
Because of the tightness of their schedule, our eight Congressmen could not stay for the entire conference. Thus, I left Christchurch with them the morning of Tuesday, February 22, a couple hours before the quake to get to meetings in Wellington. I was sitting at lunch at the Beehive with the Congressmen and a group of parliamentarians when I received at 12:53 p.m. a text message alerting me that a major seismic event was occurring on the Mainland. I stepped out of the lunch, called the embassy, emailed my colleagues still in the earthquake zone, and spent the next 10 minutes assessing the situation.
We quickly established a chain of command among the embassy team on the ground in Christchurch. Because it sounded bad in the city, we made the decision to establish a muster and shelter site at the U.S. Antarctic program facilities near the airport. We tasked specific colleagues to remain at AMI Stadium to handle evacuations, and others to make their way across the city as best they could to set up the muster site and operational base.
AMI Stadium sustained damage, and there were minor injuries among the forum participants. Fortunately, despite dramatic liquefaction on the pitch and around the facility, folks were able to evacuate safely. Unfortunately, not everyone was at the stadium at the time, and there were attendees scattered across the Christchurch area. We later learned that there were several very close calls for several of our delegates, colleagues, and spouses who were at the Cathedral or at lunch when the quake struck.
One of my embassy colleagues was near the Christchurch Art Gallery at the time. Thinking quickly, she approached a bus driver, Simon McKenzie of Leopard Coachlines, whose route had been disrupted, and asked him if he would drive her back to AMI Stadium. He immediately agreed, despite concern for his own family. It took hours because of road damage and street blockages, but Simon, my embassy colleagues, our good friends from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), and the extraordinary folks from the Department of Internal Affair's Visits and Ceremonial Office managed to locate and evacuate all of the forum participants to the U.S. Antarctic Center.
Back on the North Island, we divided into teams focused on our two main imperatives when crisis hits: locate and assist American citizens (AmCits) in distress, and mobilize U.S. Government resources to assist local authorities in preserving life and addressing urgent humanitarian needs.
Our team at the Consulate General in Auckland took the lead on AmCits issues. They immediately established telephone and email hotlines, so that anyone seeking or offering information about Americans believed to be in Canterbury could reach us. The team went to 24-hour service, called in additional assistance, and set up AmCits service counters at the commercial and military air terminals in Auckland and Wellington.
My friend Jeff Bleich, U.S. Ambassador to Australia, emailed to offer assistance. We took him up on his offer, and four consular officers and staff arrived from our sister Mission in Australia within 18 hours of the quake. Nathan Austen, the American Vice Consul at Embassy Dhaka, Bangladesh, happened to be in Christchurch on holiday. Once we safely evacuated his wife and infant child to Wellington, he jumped in to assist as well.
Consular services are a priority when a natural disaster strikes. Families are desperate to reach loved ones. Visitors are left without their passports, luggage, phones, computers, and even their wallets when they flee collapsing structures or are stranded far from their hotels. People are left without food, water, shelter, transportation, or communications. They are often injured and end up in hospitals, separated from loved ones. People die. It is the consular team at the embassy that immediately mobilizes to provide assistance to Americans facing such distress and tragedy.
In Wellington, I issued a formal declaration of disaster, cabled my findings to Washington, and submitted a list of requests to the U.S. Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA). OFDA immediately granted the embassy $100,000 in emergency relief funding, which we in turn wired to the New Zealand Red Cross to support their humanitarian relief work. OFDA also put specialized search and rescue teams on standby in the United States so that we could react quickly to any request for assistance from the Government of New Zealand.
Within 90 minutes of the quake, our visiting Congressmen and I met with Foreign Minister Murray McCully to express our condolences and solidarity, and to convey the U.S. Government's readiness to provide whatever assistance might be helpful. The Congressmen and I then walked from the Beehive to St. Paul's Cathedral to offer prayers for those impacted by the quake.
We lowered to half staff the flags at the Embassy Chancery, the Consulate General, and the Chief of Mission Residence after the quake struck. And we will keep the flags lowered until we are advised that everyone has been recovered from the rubble of February 22.
To avoid voice telecom overloads and disruptions, we began pushing out information and conducting conversations via Twitter and SMS. The tweets proved effective in directing to the muster site those separated from the Partnership Forum, helping us locate other stragglers, and disseminating emergency contact numbers and alerts. We were able to determine the whereabouts of one of our senior delegates, for example, because of the multiple responses to a tweeted call for information.
Our political team immediately began the process of collecting and cabling information back to Washington so that our interagency colleagues were kept abreast of developments, issues, and needs in real time. Because of that cabling, critical emergency aid was approved and deployed to Christchurch quickly and efficiently.
Back on the ground in Christchurch, my embassy colleagues divided into teams and began regular sweeps of hospitals, triage centers, shelters, public parks, and the morgue looking for American citizens. For four days they staged from our Antarctic Program offices -- sleeping for a couple hours now and then on the floor and foraying into the suburbs and surrounding towns. We were greatly assisted by an extraordinary New Zealand Police Officer named Blue Young, who adopted our team, provided food and transportation, and facilitated our movements into cordon zones.
We were also very fortunate that our colleague Tim Manning, the number two guy at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), was in town for the Partnership Forum. Tim has extensive experience -- not only as an emergency manager but also as an actual first responder in disaster situations. Tim immediately separated from the Partnership Forum group, linked up with New Zealand Civil Defence friends, and deployed with a Kiwi team doing building-to-building searches for survivors. Tim continued on in Christchurch for four days, working around the clock from our base at the Antarctic Center.
I hesitate to name names, because the entire U.S. Mission in New Zealand performed superbly under great pressure. Everyone employed in the consulate, at the embassy, and on the ground in Christchurch had a role to play, and each person gave 110 percent.
As my colleagues will tell you, I don't believe in idle praise, gratuitous compliments, or lax standards. Life is too short, and sincerity is too precious for that. So, I mean it when I say that I couldn't be more proud of my team, and I cannot imagine anyone doing a better job. When all hell broke loose around them, they stayed focused, worked efficiently and effectively, and helped many hundreds of people in distress.
Over the course of the first week after the quake, the multi-city team accounted for all but six of the 2,000 Americans thought to be in Christchurch at the time, issued almost 200 emergency replacement passports, fielded more than 1,500 American citizen inquiriesm managed air, ground, and sea evacuations of several hundred people, and arranged accommodations, food, and loans for those in need.
I have special praise, though, for my colleagues who stayed in Christchurch when the rest of the Partnership Forum evacuated -- Mike Layne (Economic Officer / Mission Disaster Relief Officer), Dana Deree (Consular Officer), Josh Greene (Security Officer), Mary-Lou Forrest (Management Specialist), Janine Burns (Media Specialist), Laura Scandurra (Agricultural Attache), Shauna Mendez (Librarian), Adrian Pratt (Public Affairs Officer), Tracey Zemanek (Finance Specialist), and Michele Petersen (our Department of State Desk Officer visiting from Washington).
Whatever their normal job descriptions, they came together as a team and did what was necessary -- with only the clothes on their backs and the tools they had with them when the quake struck. As I told them when I returned to Christchurch on February 24, it was a blessing that they were in Christchurch. We had exactly the right people in the right place at the right time to do the job we had to do.
That night (the 24th) -- in perhaps the emotional high point of the week -- much of the team and I stood on the tarmac at Christchurch airport and watched a chartered United Airlines 747 land with a six-person U.S. Government Disaster Assistance and Rescue (DART) team, an 84-person Los Angeles County Fire Department Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) team, and 40 tons of supplies and high-tech equipment. We drove with the team to Latimer Square where they built their encampment and began to deploy to collapsed buildings in the city.
As I write this, we continue our efforts.
Our search and rescue team is currently deployed in the 18-story Forsyth Barr Building, working to recover victims believed to be in the collapsed stairwell. The majority of the 90 American rescuers who flew in will remain at least another week, until the Government of New Zealand runs out of tasks to assign them.
We have made our U.S. Army Corps of Engineers available to New Zealand authorities to discuss the upcoming demolition work required to bring down and remove irremediably damaged structures.
We are fielding multiple other requests and offers from government, philanthropic, and private sources, and attempting to add value by screening and matching offers to needs.
We will be sending an embassy/consulate team back to Christchurch this week to do another round of AmCits activities, including the most difficult task a Consular Officer can face.
And we'll keep at it as long as needed. Because that's why we're here.

29 May 2013
The second-in-command of the Pakistani Taliban leader has been killed in a suspected US drone strike, a senior Taliban source told the BBC.
BBC article includes the following;
[ A Pakistani foreign ministry official condemned the strike as a breach of sovereignty. "Any drone strike is against the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Pakistan," the official, who declined to be identified, told Reuters news agency.]
The article lists the deceased as ..[ Waliur Rehman, the No. 2 commander of the Pakistani Taliban.] and goes on to say;
[ The US government had placed a $5m (£3.3m) bounty on his head, accusing him of involvement in attacks on coalition forces in Afghanistan. These included the 2009 bombing of a US base in which seven CIA agents were killed. ]
and that;
[On at least two occasions, Waliur Rehman is reported to have been killed in previous drone strikes.]
Why on Earth the Pak. foreign ministry would complain about the US "violating their soveregnity" when they've lost over 30,000 troops to the Taliban who are not just violating their soveregnity, but pose an existential theat to the people of Pakistan, when we just did them one hell of a favor at our own expense to bring to justice a S.O.B. responsible for killing Americans as well as Pakistanis?
It is attitudes expressed, like this bit of illogical primadonna-esque blathering and whining from clueless un-diplomatic, do-nothing minions of idiocy sitting on their gaping hole in the carpet of their rhetoric, that empower the taliban and divide allies against terrorism, pure and simple.
I hope the Dept of State will register my complaint with the government of Pakistan..quote me verbatim, and ask them directly..."Do you want to lose this fight, or what?"
And if the answer is "no", tell them "Attitude is everything, can't get anything done right without a good one, so make the proper adjustment in your's."

In short: FantasticIn full: My first 10 miler and Great run, loved every minute of it, apart from the mud from the grassy areas. Weather was cold and wet but I was too excited to notice. Car parking on the Common wasnt a problem as after the race we changed in the car, put on some dry warm clothes and headed for Gunwharf Mews for some lunch. By the time we got back we made an easy exit and headed north up the motorway without any problem. Brilliant day - well done Paula for making it special!Date of review: October 31, 2008

The weather was poor for the third year in a row. However, I still managed to meet my target-for which I was really pleased. Keep up the good work organisers!Date of review: October 29, 2008

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (May 25, 2012) – The U.S. men's beach volleyball team of Phil Dalhausser and Todd Rogers will compete Saturday in the semifinals of the Patria Direct Prague Open on the 2012 FIVB SWATCH World Tour.
Dalhausser (Ormond Beach, Fla.) and Rogers (Santa Barbara, Calif.) received the No. 1 seed going into Prague, and so far have not dropped a set in four matches. In their third-round match on Friday, they defeated Czech Republic's Premysl Kubala and Petr Benes (No. 9) 21-13, 21-16 in 27 minutes. In the next round, Dalhausser and Rogers earned a victory over Latvia's Aleksandrs Samoilovs and Ruslans Sorokins (No. 13) 22-20, 21-17 in 24 minutes. Dalhausser and Rogers lost to the Latvian team in Beijing earlier this season.
"They beat us pretty bad a few weeks ago in Beijing." Rogers said in an FIVB press release. "So we are happy we took revenge today."
Dalhausser and Rogers automatically advance to Saturday's semifinal match. Their next opponent will depend upon the outcome of the first matches Saturday morning. After Friday's play, the only other team locked into the semifinal round is Brazil's Pedro Salgado and Marcio Argaujo (No. 6).
Dalhausser and Rogers are no strangers to semifinal matches. They have won 24 FIVB events and snagged silver or bronze in 15 events throughout their career together. So far on the 2012 FIVB SWATCH World Tour, they have claimed first place twice. At the Brasilia Open, they defeated U.S. teammates Matt Fuerbringer (Costa Mesa, Calif.) and Nick Lucena (Santa Barbara, Calif.), 21-17, 21-18 in 44 minutes to win the gold. In the finals of the Shanghai Grand Slam, they faced the U.S. team of Jake Gibb (Bountiful, Utah) and Sean Rosenthal (Redondo Beach, Calif.), winning 21-19, 24-22, 15-11 in 1 hour, 7 minutes to claim their second win of the World Tour.
Gibb and Rosenthal ended their run at Prague with a ninth-place finish. On Friday, they suffered a third round loss to Netherland's Reinder Nummerdor and Richard Schuil (No. 2) 19-21, 18-21 in 39 minutes. In the next round, they lost a three-set heartbreaker to Brazil's Alison Cerutti and Emanual Rego (No. 5), 19-21, 21-17, 19-17 in 55 minutes.

Apartment complex granted Conditional Use Permit
NEW ULM – The New Ulm Planning Commission approved several measures for apartment complex projects pending at its Thursday meeting.
The commission granted a Conditional Use Permit for Eagle Development, LLC to build a three-story, 38-unit apartment complex on the block of Minnesota Street between 1st South Street and 2nd South Street. The building will feature 18 one-bedroom units, 18 two-bedroom units and three one-bedroom and den units. The plans calls for outdoor green space and patios as well as indoor community or meeting areas. There will be off-street parking spots and underground parking spots.
Rentals will be limited to individuals at least 55-years old. Representatives from Eagle Development said the centralized location, age restriction and timing of the construction are intended to take advantage of the wave of retiring baby boomers.
Construction on the project is planned for late in 2014.
TIF district
The Commission also approved the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district for the 50-unit apartment complex planned for 1520 Sunset Ave. Doneff Companies, the organization leading the project, said the TIF was essential for obtaining financing. The New Ulm City Council already previously approved the TIF district.
The TIF regulations will require 20 percent, or around 10 units, to be rented to families with income no greater than 50 percent of the Brown County median income. The apartments hope to attract MLC graduates and Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod retirees.
Compost site
The Commission approved the Conditional Use Permit for M.R. Paving to run the New Ulm's compost and burn site, clearing the final hurdle for the City to sign the five-year lease with the company.
M.R. Paving recently constructed a new main building across the street from the compost site. The company sought to run the compost site as a new revenue source and additional space for displaying its landscaping materials. M.R. Paving plans to sell filtered and unfiltered compost and transform the burn site into a wood recycling facility, which will be used to sell the resulting wood chips for landscaping. The terms of the lease prohibit any charge for dropping off compost or wood material. The costs of the compost and wood chips will be set next season.
A new addition to M.R. Paving's plans for the site is a demolition transfer facility near the Industrial Drive intersection with 21st North Street. A demolition transfer facility is a temporary storage space for scraps and waste from construction or remodeling projects. The material is then moved Valley Demolition Landfill.
The process now requires the City and M.R. Paving to sign the lease agreement.

Population, Policy and Practice
We are a multi-disciplinary group of researchers with an
international reputation for population-level and clinical research that
influences public health policy and practice.
Our aim is to promote the health of children and young people and the adults they will become through conducting research:
- across the life course
- on common, chronic and complex conditions, in addition to rare disorders
- on defining and measuring what matters for children, young people and their families
- recognising the wider contexts of children's lives
Genetic Information and Intellectual Disability
Teams of leading UK scientists have joined forces to unlock an untapped source of genetic information in a bid to better understand and treat children with intellectual disability.
Experts from Cambridge, Cardiff and UCL will be given unprecedented access to genetic information on Intellectual Disability from NHS Regional Genetics Centres across the UK as part of a first phase of a major new MRC study.
The main objective of the IMAGINE ID project, led by Professor David Skuse, is to gain a better understanding of why the genetic anomalies that cause learning disabilities lead to behavioural problems in childhood and a heightened risk of later-developing psychiatric disorders in adolescence and adulthood.
See the IMAGINE ID website for further information.

This was incredibly encouraging! I am so happy to hear
This was incredibly encouraging! I am so happy to hear this! Now I am very much an admirer of Pastor Rick. That's the key, meet real people, sit down and talk with them, find out we all have common needs and aspirations. "I think God is pleased when we work together". Couldn't agree more!

I think that is becoming a new passion among people of
I think that is becoming a new passion among people of faith. The needs out there are so great, and if anyone wants to work to relieve poverty and disease and hunger, we can work with them. Let's leave the discussions of our differences to those exhausted afterglow moments when we're resting from our good work, when it won't seem so important anyway.

Its so great to hear a real faith leader from a vibrant
Its so great to hear a real faith leader from a vibrant church and democracy, talk about how, without getting nationalistic of jingoistic, we as a nation, need to be more respectful and have more true and proven men of faith involved in settling all our international and inter-faith negotiations and affairs. If we are careful to see that faith representation is included in foreign relations, we will be seen as more trustworthy, and enable potential settlements to be believably negotiated... literally "in good faith". For far too long, the irresponsible, voices of radicals, militants and extremists claiming to be the sole representatives of other faiths and nations are the only voices we have heard via our 'commercial' media. We can effectively marginalize both radicals and extremists and talk to the masses of other faiths when we include men of faith at the foundations of our approach.
We have to learn to accept and to expect that other nations will consider themselves far more devout, pious, and trustworthy in their faiths than we are in ours. Only then can we talk meaningfully of solutions (alongside politicians) about matters which in this country are traditionally usually solely and exclusively the domain of men of politics.
Perhaps we can all... "Coexist"

Rick Warren is a fraud and impostor.

Hi again,
I wrote this song to be a "Can't Quit the Girl" kinda tune. My friend Rob lent his vocals and did a bang up job for me. Basically a roll down the windows and get out on the highway feel. Still in progress as there are no background vox yet and I also plan to have my friend CJ..(a much better guitarist than I could ever hope to be)...play some nice tasty notes throughout the coda type thing at the end. No brain surgery here, just a fun one to tap the toes to I hope.
Thanks for spending some time out your day to give a listen,

Nine arrested statewide for Medicaid fraud, AG Cooper announces
Nine arrested statewide for Medicaid fraud, AG Cooper announces
Release date: 12/18/2012
Suspects alleged to have billed for medical services they didn't provide, more arrests expected
Nine health care providers accused of defrauding taxpayers and the Medicaid system were arrested this week as part of a continuing crackdown on fraud, Attorney General Roy Cooper announced Tuesday.
The nine individuals were arrested in five different counties for engaging in various schemes to defraud the North Carolina Medical Assistance Program (Medicaid). Criminal charges levied against these health care providers include felony charges of Obtaining Property by False Pretenses and Medicaid Provider Fraud. The charges allege approximately $200,000 in fraudulent payments.
"We're continuing our crackdown to deter those who would commit health care fraud," Cooper said. "Cheating Medicaid is illegal, and our investigators and attorneys are finding violators and making them pay."
Health care providers arrested by State Bureau of Investigation agents on Tuesday, December 18 include a dentist, home health care workers, a mental health care provider, and an HIV case manager. Law enforcement arrested the suspects in Wake, Cumberland, Dare, Alleghany and Sampson counties this morning, with more arrests expected in the coming weeks. See the attached
summary for details on each case
The state is pursing criminal convictions as well as restitution of money from the accused.
Local law enforcement, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General, the Internal Revenue Service, and the Division of Medical Assistance of the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services are assisting with the cases.
Today's arrests are the continuation of a Medicaid fraud sweep that started with 20
arrests in December 2011
. Those cases have resulted in 17 convictions to date, with two more cases pending court or trial and one suspect still wanted for arrest.
The Attorney General's
Medicaid Investigation Division
(MID) nearly doubled in size last year with the addition of new attorneys, investigators, criminal information analysts and support staff, allowing the MID to take on 46 percent more cases than before.
With the added staff have come major changes in how the group goes after fraud. Members of the MID are now organized into investigative teams that include intelligence analysts, financial investigators, SBI agents, and civil and criminal attorneys. The teams are able to work even more effectively and efficiently to uncover possible fraud, search complex records, track down evidence in the field, and prosecute cases in court.
"The arrests and the money we recover also save taxpayer money by discouraging health providers who might be considering cheating," Cooper said.
North Carolina's MID has recouped more than $500 million over the past decade and helped to convict hundreds of individuals on criminal charges including patient abuse and neglect as well as financial fraud. During the federal fiscal year that ended September 30, 2012, the MID won 33 criminal convictions and 14 civil settlements that recovered $94,390,397.85 from Medicaid abusers.
The Attorney General's MID investigates fraud and abuse of Medicaid benefits by hospitals, doctors, pharmaceutical companies, medical equipment companies, mental health and personal care providers, ambulance services and others. The MID also investigates patient abuse and neglect in nursing homes and other Medicaid-funded facilities, and works closely with United States Attorneys, District Attorneys, and other state and federal law enforcement agencies.

Chattanooga is served by EPB, a power distributor that started in the 1930s when the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) was established under the New Deal. The sole reason for establishing EPB and other power distributors in the valley was to spur economic development and improve quality of life for underserved Appalachian communities. Now EPB serves more than 170,000 homes and businesses in a 600-square-mile area. The distributor manages 3,900 circuit miles of line, has a summer peak at 1,307 MW and 14 system interconnections to TVA, and operates 118 substations.
EPB began investing in automation technologies during the early 2000s. After years of study, the distributor began implementing a more defined smart grid strategy in 2007. The plan included several components and was slated for a 10-year construction. While implementation was in progress, the utility applied for and was awarded a matching ARRA grant from the Department of Energy (DOE). What would have been a 10-year build out occurred in three years.

Citizenship Ceremonies
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Dean Allison Niagara West—Glanbrook, ON
Mr. Speaker, like most members, I feel a heightened sense of patriotic pride when attending citizenship ceremonies. This certainly was the case recently when I had the privilege of attending the ceremony of Jens Hansen of Beamsville, Ontario.
Since moving from his native Netherlands, a complicated history of bureaucratic red tape has meant that for the past 21 years Jens has officially been stateless. He met and married his Canadian wife, Carolyn, when the two worked in Bermuda and they chose to move to Canada to raise their two fine sons, Kristiaan and Liam.
The family is very active in the community and Jens assists at Community Care and local schools, as well as participating in the Rotary theatre.
In short, he exudes the fine qualities that have made our country of immigrants so great. I was pleased that my office was able to help Jens through the citizenship process.
I would like to congratulate Jens and to thank him for his continuing contributions to our local community and to Canada, the country he can now proudly call his own.
I welcome Jens home.
Jordan River Anderson

Anita Neville Winnipeg South Centre, MB
Mr. Speaker, today is the sixth anniversary of the passing of the late Jordan River Anderson, a young boy from the Norway House Cree Nation in Manitoba in whose memory is named "Jordan's Principle".
Jordan was born with a rare neuromuscular disorder and was ready to go home from the hospital when he was two years old. However, he spent over two more years in the hospital due to a jurisdictional dispute over who should pay for his home care. Tragically, Jordan passed away at five years of age without ever leaving the hospital.
Jordan's Principle honours his memory by affirming that the needs of the child must always supersede jurisdictional disputes.
In December 2007, the House passed a motion unanimously calling on the government to immediately adopt a child-first principle based on Jordan's Principle.
I ask my colleagues in all parties to join me in honouring the memory of Jordan Anderson and call on the government to respect the will of Parliament and fully implement Jordan's Principle without delay.
L'Écho du Nord's 2010 People of the Year
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Monique Guay Rivière-du-Nord, QC
Mr. Speaker, I would like to introduce you to the 2010 people of the year, as chosen by the newspaper L'Écho du Nord: Joanna Comtois, the woman of the year, and Danny Berger, the man of the year.
Joanna, who is 14 years old, found out when she was 8 that she had Ewing's sarcoma. She now knows that she will never recover. Nevertheless, she established Fondation Espoir or the foundation of hope, which supports pediatric cancer research that, it is hoped, will help other children. This endearing girl has captured everyone's heart through her courage and determination.
Danny Berger, the man of the year, is the co-owner of Vieux Shack, a well-known and popular bar and restaurant in Saint-Jérôme. He is also a popular radio host and DJ. Using his extraordinary communication skills, he led the Leucan Shaved Head Challenge in the Laurentian region. Danny says that talking to people brings him joy, and we can attest that sharing this joy is what guides him and what led him to receive this honour.
Congratulations Joanna and Danny.
Tyeshia Jones
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Jean Crowder Nanaimo—Cowichan, BC
Mr. Speaker, it saddens me to rise today to remember Tyeshia Jones, a young Cowichan woman brutally murder in my hometown of Duncan. She was doing what many young people do. She was walking home late at night after a party but she never made it. Instead, our community spent days searching for her and was devastated when her body was found.
Sometimes the sad facts about violence against aboriginal women can overwhelm us. A young woman like Tyeshia should have the same expectations of a violence-free life as any other young woman in Canada but aboriginal women are three times more likely to experience violence and are seven times more likely to be murdered.
In Cowichan, we value the lives of our young women and we will walk together to show whoever took her life that we honour Tyeshia and her family. The community will gather for "Take Back the Night - A Walk for Tyeshia Jones" in downtown Duncan on February 18. All are welcome.
We thank the many volunteers who searched for Tyeshia and the many RCMP officers who are investigating her murder.
The Prince Arthur Herald
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Rob Anders Calgary West, AB
Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the students at McGill University for founding The Prince Arthur Herald. This newspaper was founded last month and promises to be a beacon of freedom.
All Canadians, including myself, can be proud of the principles this paper seeks to promote. These include: a dedication to the free market system that has provided Canadian society with wealth, prosperity and opportunity for all; the belief in the limitation of state regulation to only the most fundamentally necessary aspects of Canadian life; the freedom of speech and expression, particularly in Canadian political life; along with a belief in a strong and viable national defence to secure the safety of Canadians.
Once again, I would like to congratulate The Prince Arthur Herald and I look forward to the wealth that this nation shall derive from its moral sentiments.
Jose Kusugak
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Todd Russell Labrador, NL
Mr. Speaker, on January 19, Inuit leader, Jose Kusugak, went on his final journey in Rankin Inlet, Nunavut, surrounded by family and friends.
A linguist and broadcaster with CBC North and the Inuit Broadcasting Corporation, Jose helped bring new vitality to the Inuktitut language. A political leader, Jose served as president of the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. and the Kivalliq Inuit Association.
As a founder of Nunavut, Jose was a father of Confederation. He famously said that Inuit are first Canadians and Canadians first. A storyteller, a hockey fan and a negotiator who possessed great wit, intelligence and a big heart, Jose was, above all, a father, a husband and a grandfather.
We take comfort in knowing that Jose left this life where he wanted to be: at home and in his homeland with Nellie and surrounded by the people he loved and who loved him. We thank Jose for all that he has accomplished for Inuit and for Canada.

Mike Allen Tobique—Mactaquac, NB
Mr. Speaker, over the recess period, a number of regions in New Brunswick were hit hard by storms and high winds. In my riding of Tobique—Mactaquac, private and public property damage was significant, including along the Saint John River and Keswick River valleys.
During the process, I had an opportunity to spend time on a cleanup crew removing damaged walls and insulation.
It is a terrible sight to see people go through something like that, and even worse when it happens over the holidays.
In spite of the challenges, people are working hard to restore their homes and their lives. I want to express my appreciation and thanks to the many volunteers who have stepped up to assist those folks in need, the local service organizations, community members and businesses who have donated time, money and supplies to the restoration cause and to our valued volunteer firefighters who have played a key role in ensuring community safety.
We hope and pray for continued success in the coming weeks and months as those impacted work to restore their lives. I know the continued dedication of family, friends and community will play a big part in that continued progress.

Robert Carrier Alfred-Pellan, QC
Mr. Speaker, on January 12, the member for Beauce published a letter opposing the Conservative plan to create a national securities commission based in Toronto. He also said that this plan does not respect the Constitution because it intrudes intrusion into provincial jurisdictions. Let us not forget that he has openly defended his position in the past, calling the plan "misguided and unrealistic." This is yet another voice within the Conservative caucus itself that is speaking out against this plan to centralize.
Now that we all know where the member for Beauce stands, I hope that he will put his money where his mouth is when we reintroduce a motion condemning the Conservative plan and that he will support that motion. Otherwise, it can be assumed that he wrote this letter only out of political opportunism and personal interest.
Bruce Halliday
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Dave MacKenzie Oxford, ON
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to and honour the life and memory of Dr. Bruce Halliday, member of Parliament for Oxford from 1974 through 1993.
Dr. Halliday continually strove to serve his community and improve the well-being of his family, friends, patients and constituents. The front page headline in the Tavistock Gazette after Bruce's passing read, "Dr. Halliday was an inspiration to all".
Bruce served as chairman of the Standing Committee on Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities and held many memberships on various committees and parliamentary organizations.
In 2004, he was presented with the Distinguished Service Award by the Canadian Association of Former Parliamentarians. As well, he received an award from the Speaker of the House of Commons in recognition of parliamentary leadership on disability issues.
Dr. Bruce was the kind of man we all aspire to be. He was a loving, caring husband, father, grandfather and an inspiration to his whole family. Bruce was an extremely committed citizen to his community and his community activities. I and many others have lost a true and loyal friend. In addition, I have truly lost a mentor.
Our deepest sympathy goes out to Elizabeth and her family.
François Langlois
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Lise Zarac LaSalle—Émard, QC
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to have the opportunity to mark a remarkable achievement by a citizen of LaSalle, the third Quebecker to reach the seven summits and one of the170 climbers who have scaled the highest peaks on the seven continents. François Langlois accomplished this feat in December when he reached the summit of the Vinson Massif in Antarctica.
In 10 years of adventures, this philanthropist and explorer has collected more than $4 million for sick children. Born prematurely with respiratory difficulties, he spent a month in an incubator fighting for his life. When starting out on his expedition to the top of Mount Everest, he promised to give back to children.
Mission accomplished for François Langlois who, during his expeditions, has always remembered the seriously ill children he has met on his hospital visits.
On behalf of my colleagues in the House, I wish to congratulate him for his grit and determination and thank him for his great generosity.

2:15 p.m.
Rick Dykstra St. Catharines, ON
Mr. Speaker, my constituents were outraged by media reports that a Canadian immigration official wanted to let an illegal immigrant count his illegal work experience on his immigration application. Not surprisingly, some of those who profit off the immigration industry like the new interpretation of the rules. Immigration lawyer, Joel Sandaluk stated, "Immigration Canada should reward hard work".
That is not the point. In Canada we welcome a quarter of a million legal immigrants every year. Canadians expect immigrants to come here the legal way, not pay immigration lawyers to help break our laws and then profit off of it.
That is why I was happy to see a few days later that our government's immigration minister had overruled this official and made clear that illegal immigrants are, ipso facto, criminally inadmissible to Canada.
My constituents support a welcoming policy toward legal immigration, just as they support the Government of Canada enforcing its laws and deporting those who work here illegally. The law is the law.

Peter Stoffer Sackville—Eastern Shore, NS
Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are well-known for using military personnel in their photo ops.
We found out over the Christmas holidays that the Supreme Court of Canada has now authorized the class action law suit of SISIP to proceed. Instead of having 6,500 disabled soldiers go to the courts to seek retribution for their benefits, why does the government not now sit down with the class action law suit and settle this once and for all?
We also found out that now the Conservatives, through the Treasury Board, want to charge military and CF personnel for parking on military bases. Imagine having to pay to go to work and park your car.
We also found out today that those next of kin who travelled to Afghanistan to the site of where their fallen soldiers may have come from may no longer benefit from military expenditures to cover the cost of their travel.
When will the government stop using the military for photo ops and really do something for the men and women of our military once and for all?
The Economy
Statements By Members
2:20 p.m.
Daniel Petit Charlesbourg—Haute-Saint-Charles, QC
Mr. Speaker, the economy is our government's top priority. Our economic action plan has produced concrete results, but we must now stay the course. We have listened to Canadian families, small business owners, workers and business people.
The Prime Minister and the Conservative members of Parliament have held over 150 economic consultations with Canadians. We continue to hear that Canadian families and businesses want our government to stay the course. They want us to create jobs, balance the budget and cut taxes.
Our government's tax reduction plan will protect and create jobs and will stabilize our economy. We will continue to oppose the opposition's plan to increase taxes, since this would stall the economic recovery, cause the loss of jobs and hurt families.
The opportunism exhibited by the coalition will cost us jobs and will jeopardize Canada's fragile economic recovery.

Johanne Deschamps Laurentides—Labelle, QC
Mr. Speaker, the Canadian Collective of Solidarity with the Tunisian Struggle for Social Justice is holding a rally on Parliament Hill today to show its support for the people of Tunisia.
Tunisians are experiencing a surge of hope, having freed themselves from the heavy yoke that was weighing them down. The beginnings of real democracy are taking shape. The democratic world should pay close attention to the Tunisian experience, because its success could fuel the aspirations of other countries in the region.
The federal government's message must be clear: Canada will not harbour former dictators or their families. It must reach an extradition arrangement with Tunisia concerning Mr. Trabelsi, the brother-in-law of former president Ben Ali. Canada must also immediately freeze all of his assets and those of his family so they cannot be liquidated or transferred to tax havens. If any of those assets come from dirty money, they must be seized and returned to their rightful owners: the people of Tunisia.
Long live a democratic Tunisia!

But this surpassed all expectations! Great trails, had been very dry in the weeks before so not as much mud as expected but still the clay at the 2 mile point was slip-tastic!! Hills weren't too bad, often had to walk due to the traffic in front but all were perfectly run-able if you had done the training, but hey we don't run these races for the times, we run them for that big smiley feeling that only running through stagnant water in the middle of November can give!!!Great organisation, great facilities, nice T shirt (even if it is cotton), personally I would prefer a medal but thats because I like to collect them.First time, definitely won't be the last, give this a go it will not disappoint!!!!Date of review: November 20, 2011

What's on the 2014 artwork?
click to enlarge...
Download the artwork here.
The 2014 National Fossil Day artwork features an ancient reptile, known as an aetosaur, surrounded by a variety of Late Triassic plants. The scene is an idealized representation of a Mesozoic Era ecosystem which is the theme for the 2014 National Fossil Day monthly features. Each month a different Mesozoic ecosystem and the associated animals and plants will be the featured on the National Fossil Day website. To learn more about the aetosaur, along with some of the earliest dinosaurs and other Late Triassic animals and plants, please revisit the National Fossil Day website in February when we will feature Petrified Forest National Park.
Age of Reptiles
The Mesozoic, the era of "Middle Life", is divided into three periods—the Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous. The beginning and end of the Mesozoic are marked by worldwide mass extinction events. The Mesozoic Era spans from 252 million to 66 million years before present.
The Mesozoic is also commonly referred to as the "Age of Reptiles" because of the great diversity of reptiles which evolved and successfully inhabited terrestrial and marine environments worldwide. In addition to all of the different groups of dinosaurs, many non-dinosaurian reptiles shared the land and inhabited the seas during the Mesozoic.

The evolution of plants changed the landscape of the Mesozoic ecosystems. The Triassic was dominated by ferns, cycads, and ginkgophytes. Modern gymnosperms and conifers appeared during the Jurassic. The first appearance and rapid diversification of angiosperms (flowering plants) occurred during the Cretaceous. The animals and plants of the Mesozoic provide a rich and interesting story for life during the "Age of Reptiles".
Go See Them!
Many National Fossil Day partner fossil sites and museums are excellent places to learn about Mesozoic Era fossils and ecosystems. Below are just a few National Fossil Day partners which preserve a portion of the Mesozoic story.
Garden Park Fossil Area is an internationally known paleontological site that was one of the primary areas responsible for generating worldwide interest in dinosaurs during the late 1800's. Fifteen species of dinosaurs, nine of which were new, were recovered from here at that time. Fish, crocodile, turtle, and mammal fossils have also been recovered, making this site one of the oldest and richest fossil sites in the United States. The Garden Park Fossil Area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Royal Gorge Field Office located in Cañon City, Colorado. The Garden Park Fossil area is also a National Natural Landmark.
Dinosaur State Park, Connecticut, is one of the largest dinosaur track sites in North America. The park preserves and exhibits Jurassic fossil tracks that were made 200 million years ago. The Museum at Dinosaur State Park presents a bird's-eye view of the preserved Mesozoic floodplain covered with tracks, dioramas of Triassic and Jurassic environments, collections of fossils, and interactive exhibits. This park is a premier paleontological site in the northeastern United States. The dinosaur trackway is a National Natural Landmark.
Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park, Nevada , was established in 1957 to protect and display North America's most abundant concentration and largest ichthyosaur (marine reptile) fossils known at the time. The park is another National Natural Landmark and provides visitors a window into an Mesozoic marine environment with complete skeletons of ichthyosaurs.
Bug Creek Fossil Site on the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge, Montana, has been designated as a National Natural Landmark because of the abundance of Cretaceous mammals preserved there. The isolated bones, jaws or jaw fragments, and teeth indicate that these mammals must have been tiny, mouse-sized or smaller. More than 26,000 mammal teeth, 1,000 mammal jaw fragments and hundreds of isolated mammal bones have been excavated, representing 20 different species of multituberculates, marsupials and true mammals.
- Big Bend National Park, Texas, preserves an important assemblage of Late Cretaceous vertebrates and plants. The Big Bend fauna is dominated by "Texas-Sized" reptiles including the largest known flying animal Quetzalcoatlus, the massive crocodile-like predator Deinosuchus, large turtles and a variety of dinosaurs. Fossil marine reptiles, early mammals and petrified logs contribute to the Late Cretaceous ecosystem preserved at Big Bend National Park.
