Read Liner Notes »
IN FLAMES has been one of the leaders of the underground metal movement for over 10 years. With over 1,000,000 records sold worldwide and coming off a successful tour as part of OZZFEST 2005, where they shared the festival?s main stage with Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden and others, the time is ripe for this Swedish quintet to continue their ascent. The band?s recent success, as well as that of their counterparts -- including Killswitch Engage (whom they co-headlined with in 2004), Shadows Fall and Lamb of God -- has paved the wave for metal bands to break through to the mainstream.
With the February 7th, 2006 North American release of Come Clarity, the band chose a new label in Ferret Music to not only serve their legions of fans, but to introduce them to a broader audience in heavy music. The follow-up to the band's 2004 album, Soundtrack to Your Escape, Come Clarity features IN FLAMES' most ambitious songwriting to date. The final track listing for Come Clarity is "Take This Life", "Leeches", "Reflect the Storm", "Dead End", "Scream", "Come Clarity", "Vacuum", "Pacing Death's Trail", "Crawl through Knives", "Versus Terminus", "Our Infinite Struggle", "Vanishing Light" and "Your Bedtime Story Is Scaring Everyone".
Over the last ten years, IN FLAMES has defined an entire musical movement, placing them at the forefront of the next revolution in heavy music and on the verge of exploding and exposing the mainstream to a whole new sonic experience. Many critically-acclaimed albums have laid the groundwork, and now IN FLAMES stand poised to blow the gates wide open.
Striving to make music he loved, Jesper Str?mblad formed IN FLAMES with Johan Larsson and Glenn Ljungstr?m in 1990. After recording a demo, the trio garnered their first record deal and began work on their debut album. Entitled Lunar Strain, the release quickly became an instant classic in underground circles. A licensing deal with Nuclear Blast Records soon followed, as did the addition of both Anders Friden on vocals and Bj?rn Gelotte on drums. IN FLAMES then went to work on recording Lunar Strain?s follow-up, The Jester Race. The album was an immediate success and the band?s profile continued to increase worldwide as did their rigorous touring schedule.
After the recording of 1997?s Whoracle, Johan and Glenn decided to leave the band and both Peter Iwers (bass) and Niklas Engelin (guitar) stepped in. With the fresh line-up in place, IN FLAMES hit the road with Dimmu Borgir for a very successful European tour. The album ultimately became known in the highly factional underground metal community as an important release not only for IN FLAMES, but for the entire melodic death metal movement.
At the conclusion of the album?s cycle, IN FLAMES? lineup again changed and the band restructured considerably. Bj?rn switched from drums to guitar and Daniel Svensson (SACRILIGE) joined on percussion. In 1999, the band released Colony. Excellent reactions to the album as well as increased touring the world over turned IN FLAMES into one of the most popular metal acts on the planet. 2000?s Clayman topped its predecessor and the band received international acclaim. The success of Clayman gave the band a chance to share stages with acts such as Slipknot, Metallica and Slayer. The first IN FLAMES live album, The Tokyo Showdown, soon followed, giving a detailed insight into the band's live competence.
After touring the world twice over in support of Clayman, IN FLAMES released their two most successful records to date, Reroute to Remain and Soundtrack to Your Escape in 2002 and 2004 respectively. The invitation to join the 2005 installment of OZZFEST as a main stage act solidified IN FLAMES' place amongst modern day heavy music's elite and saw the band break new ground, converting scores of new fans over the course of the highly-publicized trek.
With the release of Come Clarity, IN FLAMES has taken North America by storm with their best album to date. The band is finally able to call North America their second home by touring the continent for more than half of 2006, a jaunt that began with a sold out ?Come Clarity? headlining tour in January / February that included support from well known acts Trivium, Devildriver and Zao.
Come Clarity debuted at # 58 on Billboard's Top 200 chart this week with sales just under 24,000 copies. The influential Swedish quintet's debut release for Ferret Music, and ninth full length album overall, is the highest charting record in both the band and label's sales history. Come Clarity has met to widespread critical acclaim and solidified IN FLAMES' place as leaders of the modern day heavy music movement. The release has been called "a coordinated stampede" by Billboard and "A rare blend of speed, precision, heaviness and melody" by the Chicago Tribune. The album features thirteen explosive tracks, including the roll-out single and video, "Take this Life".
IN FLAMES will embark on a second North American headlining tour slated to commence on May 5th and will follow that with a summer trek as one of the featured acts on the 2006 ?Sounds of the Underground? festival tour.

Topic: How to add delete link to Datatables via json/ajax?
I'm working on a table based on RailsCast #340 on DataTables.
I've added ajax support as Ryan discusses towards the end of the episode.
However, I'm not sure how to add a "delete" link to the json array, because I can't figure out how to include the "method: :delete" part. I'd also like to know how I can pass the Bootstrap class and confirm options.
Here's the view code I'm trying to replicate:
<%= link_to 'Delete', product, method: :delete, class: "btn btn-mini btn-danger", confirm: "You sure?", title: product.product_number %>

Sleigh Ride
The Columbus Dispatch - February 01, 2012 02:04 PM
This winter (so far) has been a disappointment for those of us who enjoy outdoor winter sports. I miss the snow.
So I thought I'd look for a little breath of winter in the Dispatch photo archives to share. Even those of you who don't love the snow will be charmed by these snowy photos from a slower time.
The top photo ran in the paper on January 25, 1941. Columbus had received 5.5 inches of snow the day before bringing the total snow accumulation to 6 inches. (My kind of snow fall.) As you might expect icy conditions and the snow made traveling by car difficult. So Paul Weisheimer took a different tack. The original caption reads:
Charles Weisheimer, age 71, of 374 West Eigth avenue,who drove the same sleigh 50 years ago is being taken for a ride by Paul Weisheimer, 1008 King avenue. The horse belongs to Paul and is named Rhett Butler. The heavy snow Friday offered opportunity for the first ride of the winter.
I can't tell where in Columbus they're driving, but they seem to be outside the city center. The same cannot be said about the photo below.
In this picture (dated January 1940) Mr. Powelson and Miss Margaret Lustig take a spin in Powelson's 100-year-old sleigh. They are clearly "in the city". I love the idea that they are driving past parked cars on a city street. I wonder if the sight of a horse drawn sleigh was as remarkable in 1940 as it would be today. Ahh, if only there was enough snow for us to find out.

School and Clinical Mental Health Counseling
"Counseling is a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education and career goals."
(20/20: A Vision for the Future of Counseling)
The Master's programs in Counseling and Human Services provide the necessary training for graduate students who desire a career in School Counseling, Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Substance Abuse or Rehabilitation Professional Counseling.
The Council for Accreditation and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) accredits both the School and Clinical Mental Health Counseling Programs. CACREP accreditation offers greater recognition of quality professional preparation within the "job market", as well as educational opportunities beyond a master's degree, as well as provides students greater reciprocity for state/territory certifications and license beyond New York State.
Both programs provide a common core, and allows students to specialize in school counseling or mental health counseling with further specialization possible in substance abuse counseling or rehabilitation counseling. With some extra coursework, students may meet the requirements of both programs. Please contact your advisor if you have any questions.
Vision Statement
The vision of the Department of Counseling and Human Services at Canisius College is to offer leading regional educational programs for graduate students who aspire to be outstanding professional counselors and leaders employed in a variety of educational, agency, and mental health settings. Students and professors in our program are personally inspired to contribute to the improving the lives of individuals, families and the broader social condition of men and women. Our vision incorporates both national and state standards within the profession of counseling as embodied by the American Counseling Association, its divisions and the appropriate state certification and licensing bodies. While promoting lifelong learning, we provide comprehensive training programs that integrate a core counseling curriculum coupled with clinical experience, and supervised internships.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Counseling and Human Services at Canisius College is to educate humanistic and professionally competent counselors who can provide services to clients from a wellness-oriented philosophy. The programs are designed to prepare professional counselors to meet the educational, emotional, mental, psychological, social, and career needs of diverse populations. Programs are intended to educate counselors with a Master's of Science degree who are qualified to provide school, agency and mental health counseling to a variety of clients in order to enhance their quality of life and optimize their functioning.
The ideals and values espoused by Canisius College and the Jesuit tradition are primary to the mission of the Department of Counseling and Human Services. These ideals involve the following:
- Treating others with dignity and respect;
- Sensitivity to cultural differences;
- Ethical behavior;
- Promoting and maintaining healthy living;
- Contributing to the welfare of others; and
- Valuing Social Justice
The faculty recognizes that effective, counselors need a variety of clinical skills as well as professional competencies in the areas of leadership, advocacy, and consultation. Professional counselors must utilize all of these skills, while balancing professional development, creativity and accountability through data driven research to effectively deliver comprehensive counseling services in order to facilitate positive change at both the individual and systemic level.
Areas of Specialization Include:
School Counseling
Clinical Mental Health Counseling
|The 48-credit degree meets the academic requirements leading to New York State Education Department Provisional Certification for school counselor K-12. Permanent Certification requires an applicant complete 12 additional graduate credits and two years employment as a school counselor post-degree. School Certification differs from State-to-State/US Territories. Reciprocity exists among most State Education Departments. Canisius Alumni professional school counselors live and work across the United States and abroad. The Canisius College School Counseling specialization enjoys a reputation for providing candidates with a practical, applied skill-set based upon "best practices" long research and evaluated as counselors working with individual and groups of school-age children. In addition to direct counseling skills, we prepare candidates in their growth as leaders within a collaborative environment, advocating, and consulting with colleagues, on behalf of the children.
|The 60-credit degree meets the academic requirements leading to the New York State Office of Professions Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential. Additional requirements include 3000 hours of post-graduate employment as a counselor, registered with a "limited permit" and NYS-examination. In addition, our Clinical Mental Health Counseling specialization meets the academic requirements for a U.S. Department of Defense TRICARE Certified Mental Health Counselor (TCMCH).
In addition, students may elect to complete academic coursework required towards NYS OASIS Credentialed Alcohol Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC) or be a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC). Upon completion of one's studies, both credentials require appropriate post-degree work experience and an examination.

Days of the Calendar: Hanukkah
The historical significance of Hanukkah dates back to roughly 200 B.C. At this time the Jews were subjected to the rule of Syrian King Antiochus IV, who outlawed their religion and ordered them to worship Greek gods. Through an uprising, led by Judah Maccabee, the Jews drove out their oppressors and restored their temple. Despite having only enough oil left to keep the flames lit for a single day, it lasted eight. Since then, the eight-day Hanukkah celebration remained a yearly tradition, as Jews remember their emergence from the darkness of oppression. Join WatchMojo.com as we learn more about Hanukkah.

Expert Q & A Answers About
Does flavored lubricant weaken condoms or cause any other problems?
Does flavored lubricant weaken condoms? The lubricant I bought is water-based and contains sugar...will it make the condoms less effective in protecting against pregnancy? Also, could the sugar in the lubricant cause an infection for my girlfriend? Thanks for your help and advice.
Can women get a disease or get sick from masturbating?
I'm a teenager and I've never had sex...but ever since my health class, I'm afraid that if I touch myself I'll contract a disease. I have masturbated, but that's it. For the past three days, I've had a stomach virus and I started to feel better today...but then I found a small red bump on my vagina lips really close to my pubic hair. It hurts a little, but not bad. Should I be worried?
How risky is unprotected oral sex?
What is the risk of contracting STDs through oral sex with a man who is not wearing a condom? Is the risk reduced if I don't swallow the ejaculate?
What kinds of STDs and other infections can a man get from having unprotected anal sex with a woman?
What kinds of STDs and other infections can a man get from having unprotected anal sex with a woman? Recently, while having unprotected anal sex, the base of my penis became pink and irritated. The mild irritation has persisted and jock itch cream isn't working.
I got a blow job from a prostitute...what STD tests should I get to be safe?
I'm in an unhappy monogamous relationship, so seven days ago I had unprotected oral sex (a blow job) and protected intercourse with a woman I don't know. When I asked her why she wasn't using a condom for the oral sex she said that she didn't have herpes and didn't think I did either. What STD tests should I consider taking? I feel horrible and scared.
What STD tests should we have before getting married?
My girlfriend and I aren't going to sleep together until we're married...but she has had two previous partners, and I haven't had any. What kinds of STD testing should we have before marriage to make sure we're both healthy? I've heard that HIV might not show any physical effects for a long time, so this worries me.
How do I get tested for STDs?
What tests detect STDs? Is there one test or are there a series of tests?
Could I pass genital warts or genital herpes on to a new partner if I don't have any symptoms?
I was in a five-year relationship with a man who had been treated for genital warts before I met him. He also had a herpes outbreak that started on his back and later showed up on his genitals. I only used the pill for birth control while we were together. We never had sex when he had a herpes outbreak, and I don't have any symptoms of herpes or warts, but I'm wondering if I could transmit either disease in new relationships.
Is it dangerous for me to swallow another man's ejaculate after giving him a blow job?
I'm a 25-year-old man and ⎼ for the last month ⎼ I've been sneaking away with a male co-worker so I can perform oral sex on him. He says it gives him relief because he gets turned on by all the provocatively dressed women we work with. Last week, I confided in a female co-worker and she said we should stop. She said that if I give a guy a blow job and swallow, eventually the protein from his sperm will mix with mine and cause an infection in my balls. Is that true?
Can an upper respiratory infection be transmitted to someone during oral sex?
I have a cough that seems to be allergy-related, but it's gotten worse so I'm getting it checked out. My question is, can an upper respiratory infection be transmitted either to or from someone during oral sex?

quote SerebiiThe first image sof CoroCoro has been revealed, showing more details of the upcoming game Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth. These images showcase various new features of the game
In it, it lists Lugia and Ho-Oh as being major Pokémon within the narrative, along with Kyurem. The main hub area in the game is known as the Pokémon Paradise and features a variety of new Pokémon who provide many amenities and items. A new feature in the town is V-Roulette, run by Victini, which will get you higher ranked moves. With Pansage, you have the ability to grow various berries to aid you on your quest. Quagsire is used to check upon the status of the Pokémon you have befriended, and set you to have them join you in the next dungeon. Beartic provides you with a small mini-game to play where you need to shoot discs across some ice to get it in a hole.
quote KubrickWell they've shown Kyurem in like all the trailers so far as being the huge main boss soo...xD
Chaos Team, while I agree that it may bring back older fans, I still think they should've kept it with the Gen 5 legendaries. First PMD had Rayquaza, second PMD had Dialga, it'd be only natural that the next PMD would be the dragon trio. And for those older fnas, they could've had the post story, like the Darkrai thing, but maybe with another Gen. I just don't like how they did older gen legendaries.
However, if they did do older generation Pokémon, they'd have a good reason for it, so I'd like to know. xD
quote KubrickWell I think they needed a way to get like...older gen players excited for the game. xD Since y'know, they have a really limited option on who the starter can be and all. And I think a lot of the new legends are ...not really well-liked by older players, I guess. I really like them, honestly, but I don't really like the idea of having nothing but 5th gen legends in the game. Or nothing but 5th gen Pokemon in general. So far, that's all I've really seen besides Pikachu, mostly all 5th gen Pokemon. And while I like a lot of the 5th gen Pokes, and while it's good to have 5th gen exposure on PMD on the 3ds, I think a key component to PMD is how much variety there is!
Don't get me wrong, I love seeing Ho-Oh and Lugia, but I'm so disappointed. There's a wide range of Generation 5 Legendaries that they could've chosen, but they chose a Gen 2 Legendary? I don't think that's cool.
I'm still psyched for the game, but it's sorta meh, now :\

The city of Desert Hot Springs, California just unveiled their newest city works project to help increase surveillance and make it easier for police to keep the city safe. The city hopes that by increasing the way people use surveillance, they will be able to help the police catch criminals.
What makes this system different than most surveillance systems: "This is the first truly mobile, high-speed data network anywhere, and it's definitely the first one for police vehicles for public safety," said Justin Benoit, chief technology officer with Lockheed Martin who said he consulted with other vendors.
This 1.2 million dollar system includes 30 cameras in public areas as well as in 16 squad cars. Accessible from both the police station and from wireless laptops that transmit data over a secure network, the system will give police a panoramic view of the surveillance sights with touch screen zoom capabilities. If they see something suspicious, they can simply touch the screen on their laptop and zoom in on any suspicious people or activities.
"It's a huge leverage, a plus factor for us that we can remotely be able to provide the information and the data live time to our staff, and they can use it to be safer and to respond effectively," police Chief Pat Williams said Tuesday.
One resident, Tom Wilhem, 49, stated that he thinks this type of surveillance is useful: "They can see what's going on, which will help the officers. They're out there kind of blind without it," he said. "We have the technology. Why not use it?"

Shaping the Future
In the front parlor of Julia Reed and John Pearce's home in New Orleans, a 19th-century lacquer cocktail table is flanked by a pair of English Regency faux-bamboo benches upholstered in a Claremont fabric; the Italian-marble mantel is original to the house, and the gilt mirror and painted chairs are antique. The chandelier is from New Orleans Auction Galleries, the side table belonged to Reed's great-grandmother, and the walls are painted in Farrow & Ball's Sutcliffe Green.
The Greek Revival house was built circa 1847 in New Orleans's Garden District.

How we feel about where we are today affects how we remember and regret the past. The question illustrator Hanan Harchol is trying to understand: what is the relationship between happiness and gratitude? If you can feel gratitude for what you have, it can render those bad decisions unimportant, even not so bad.
And what does this do for regret? It can help you move on and stop ruminating about the "one that got away" or the job you should have taken, and make better decisions in the future.
In this animated video, Harchol shares a Jewish folktale in which a farmer complains about his home being too small. The cagy, local rabbi advises the farmer to bring goats into his small home for a while. Then, the farmer sees how small his home really could be.
Thankfully, we can replicate this advice as a thought experiment. This may sound like a grandma reminding us, "Oh, it could always be worse." But it's easier to realize how good life is once you imagine how hard it could be. Isn't it easier to see a bronze medal as a gift rather than a failed attempt at a gold if you imagine that you might've come in 4th place? If the ability to feel gratitude is like building a muscle, maybe the workout starts here.

Additional details regarding the forthcoming DirectX 11 family of graphics processing units (GPUs) from ATI, graphics business unit of Advanced Micro Devices, have transpired on the Internet. It looks like all the products are named after evergreen trees and that there will be at least four graphics processing units.
The ATI Evergreen family of DirectX 11 compatible graphics chips will initially consist of five products, according to HKEPC web-site. Typically, the graphics chip designer releases three graphics chips for various market segments at first, therefore, since the flagship X2 version consists of two GPUs, there are four code-names assigned for the initial product lineup. Five code-names may either imply that the fifth code name indicates a graphics core for future chipsets, a special cut-down or expanded version of another product aimed at special customers or just a future graphics processor based on the same architecture.
Since the information comes from an unofficial source and is currently has not been confirmed by any other sources, any details should be considered as guesses.
ATI demonstrated its first DirectX 11 graphics processors at Computex Taipei 2009 in early June, however, it did not outline any actual timeframes for introduction. There are unofficial reports over the Internet that ATI may release its chip known under "RV870" and "Evergreen" code-names in September or October. However, there are also claims that ATI Radeon HD 5000-series is only due in November.
ATI/AMD did not comment on the news-story.

Incredibly Ever After
Gazer Warrior Gives Advice
Clip | TV-14
One of the world's greatest super heroes – the mighty Gazer Warrior – has finally met his match! Her name is Aroma Warrior, and ever since the day they met, he's only had laser beam eyes for her. Stricken by love for his fellow crime fighter, Gazer Warrior hangs up his cape and settles down to marry the super being of his dreams. But wedded life proves to be anything but blissful for these once upon a time costumed crusaders. Aroma Warrior quickly comes down with a bad case of baby fever, and disappointing your new bride is a bad idea when she's got the super strength to literally throw you out of the house. To make matters worse, Gazer Warrior finds his super-sight fading and his libido lacking just as fate – in the form of a clandestine martial arts tournament – forces the aging super heroes to, once again, don their masks and battle the forces of evil!

Battle Lines Are Drawn
While reports of malware infection seem more pronounced on the open Android platform, malware can affect end users no matter the mobile operating system in use; as InformationWeek's Jonathan Feldman discussed recently, there are some cracks in Apple's walled garden, too. And we're poised to see a more splintered ecosystem, according to our January InformationWeek Research In Motion Survey of 536 business technology professionals, all of whom are involved with evaluating, procuring or managing smartphones or creating mobility policies. While currently the platform breakdown heavily favors the more secure and manageable RIM BlackBerry, that's set to change. Within 24 months, respondents expect a relatively level field among Android, Apple and BlackBerry.
Form factor is another wild card. Almost 80% of the 323 respondents to our latest InformationWeek Mobile Device Management and Security Survey, all of whom are involved with determining mobile/wireless strategy or evaluating, recommending or purchasing mobile devices, say tablets will grow in importance, even as laptops and netbooks hold pretty steady. That means how we battle malware has to evolve as well, moving beyond just desktop antivirus. (S4340212)

This week I am in Costa Rica to celebrate[Earth Day] and promote IBM's [Smarter Planet strategy] to help solve the world's energy and environmental problems. This is thethird in the series. The first two posts were:
- Geo-thermal energy in [Green Water for Green Energy]
- Hydro-electric power in [Power to the Costa Rican People]
|Here in Costa Rica, they separate their recyclables, and encourage even the hotel guests from other countries to do the same. See my photo on the left for an example.
This is more than most in the United States will do. We're lucky to get North Americans to just separate all recyclables in one bin separate from all trash in a second bin.
Most people are familiar with the [star rating system] that rank most hotels from one star (budget class/economy) to five stars (deluxe/luxury). The nicest hotel I've been to was the [Burj Al Arab] in Dubai, which claims a seven star rating. For eco-tourism, there is a similar "Green Leaf" rating system. According to Patrick,the Instituto Costarricense de Turismo [ICT] (tourism board of Costa Rica) rates hotels from one leaf (adopting some measures, like separating recyclables shown above) to five leaves (entirely carbon neutral).This Green Leaf system seems more important to European and Canadian tourists, but those from United States may not even be aware of it.
The food at these hotels vary. The typical dish here for breakfast, lunch and dinner is the Casado, consisting of mostly rice and beans. I have found thatCosta Rica has come up with as many creative ways to combine rice and beans in various proportions as Starbucks® serve various combinations of coffee and milk.The locals might be accustomed to a steady diet of rice and beans for every meal of every day, but those of us from North America aren't! Not counting tourist flatulence, Costa Rica has[pledged to be carbon neutral by 2021], the country's 200th birthday.
Sadly, most folks in the United States don't categorize their hotels with a Green Leaf rating system, nor do they even bother to categorize their recyclables. I spent 18 months in the field doing Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) assessments for clients, and most didn't categorize their data either.So, the next time you have some combination of coffee and milk, whether its a Latte, Misto, Espresso, or Macchiato, remember that the coffee came from acountry trying to be more environmentally responsible, grown by a farmerwho eats a simple diet of rice and beans, and has no problem separating different categories of recyclables. Perhaps you will remember to separate your data, and store it on an information infrastructure based on an environmentally-responsible combination of SSD, FC, SATA and tape, to reduce your costs and minimize your carbon footprint.
We're all on this planet together.

Problem with Judith's letter
To the editor:
I have a few problems with some of the facts that Judith from Oregon shares with us to explain why she is shocked that wolf hunting is used as a management tool. First of all, it may be possible that thousands of years ago European farmers found ways to protect their livestock from predation without killing the predators, but I would guess such methods were used along side the hunting of problem wolves (and bears and big cats).
She says a wolf hunt ignores the voices of Michigan citizens. Maybe this is based on some poll, but does it reflect the voices of the people who live with wolves, and whose livelihood depends on their flocks, or does it reflect the voices of people who like the idea of wolves being somewhere, but definitely not in their neighborhood.
She says that wolves are not eaten by humans and are therefore not game. Even if nobody ate them, the use of their skins for blankets or other things would negate this, for did not God himself kill animals in Genesis to make skins for Adam and Eve after they had sinned, and yet people did not eat meat until much later in their history.She says that gray wolves have not recovered, yet she cites the Endangered Species Act. If they are no longer in any significant danger of becoming extinct, the ESA should no longer apply to them. However grizzly bears are still considered endangered outside Alaska. Has she considered that these two predator animals, along with people, must compete for the same limited prey resources? The fact that wolves have naturally reintroduced themselves to areas like Michigan shows that wolves are doing alright, and no longer need support from the ESA.

2007 Fundraising Campaign - Marine Turtle Salvation Program
We Need
Donation to
Meet Our Goal
of US$ 10,000!!
As most of you know, Cozumel just finished its spectacular annual Carnaval celebration a week or so ago with "The Burning of Juan Carnaval" and as usual, the final parades were quite colorful and animated. We have collected quite a number of photos covering the highlights and parade of this 130 year island tradition.
View highlights of Carnaval 2007
. In the spirit of the Kid's Costumes Campaigns of previous years, I have used Carnaval 2007 to initiate an annual fundraising drive for the Cozumel Turtle Salvation Program. This email will close out the campaign so please join with us!!
This is LAST CALL in the Fundraising Campaign for the
Marine Turtle Salvation Program
. After a very strong kick off with
Dive Paradise
stepping up with their US$ 1,000 donation, things have continued to go well for this inaugural campaign to recruit Turtle Sponsors. With the addition of several new business donors as well as private family donors, we
now stand at just over US $5,000 in total pledges
as we approach our deadline of March 15th. These pledges are a fantastic accomplishment for our first year however, WE STILL NEED PLEDGES OF ALL SIZES TO REACH OUR GOAL AND TIME IS RUNNING OUT!! This amount does not yet include several donors who have sent actual supplies to use nor does it include one donor who is offering a very deep discount on an ATV purchase.
And remember, you can easily donate and participate as a Turtle Sponsor from the USA & Canada as well from here on the island so don't let distance be a barrier!! It's easy and details will follow once you make a pledge!!
In my last email, I introduced to you the Coordinator of Cozumel's Marine Turtle Salvation Program, Cristopher Gonzales Baca. Cris has been very excited to see so many Turtle Sponsors come forward these past few weeks to participate in this fundraising campaign. However, he wants to help urge MORE DONORS TO COME FORWARD for Cozumel's Turtles!
Cris works for the City within the Department of Urban Development. From April until November each year, Cris' primary responsibility is managing all aspects of the Turtle Program from conducting Committee meetings to organizing the brigade leaders and developing logistics plans to over seeing the collection of quality scientific data and the preparation of data analysis reports. Seen here accepting donations made by Tim & Noah Criswell on behalf of Healthy Pet Exotics in West Linn, Oregon, Cris is passionate about his work with the Turtle Program and wants everyone to know how much your donations will help the
Turtle Program
"Not only are the donated items very beneficial, but it helps boost the morale of all the volunteers when they understand that these items were purchased or given by Turtle Sponsors from all around the world who love Cozumel's turtles as much as they do."
So this is
for donations and I sincerely hope to hear from those of you who have not yet pledged. We NEED your support, please!!! We want to reach our goal of US$10,000 this year and would like to have as many donor names as possible in the Turtle Sponsor section of the new webpage being developed so please consider making a pledge/donation to the campaign before our March 15th deadline! The Marine Turtle Salvation Program starts its expenditures in April so it is important to get these funds on hand for this season's use!
I've included below the first email notice about the details of this fundraising drive and the ways you can participate as a Turtle Sponsor in Cozumel's Marine Turtle Salvation Program. A big THANK YOU to all who have already pledged/donated and I sincerely hope to hear from more of you after you receive this email!!
This is FINAL Call for Donations!!!
This is the FINAL Call for Donations!!!
Initially sent early February ~
Greetings Cozumel Friends & Carnavaleros!!
I hope that all of you are ready for the upcoming Carnaval celebration which will be held
February 14 - 21, 2007
which promises to be as extraordinary and spectacular as ever!
As you may recall, in years past I served on the Cozumel Carnaval Committee and coordinated a fundraising campaign to help subsidize the activities of children participating in the dance competitions held throughout Carnaval celebration. With the generous support of the American, Canadian and local community, that fundraising campaign continued for 6 years and was a much appreciated and very successful endeavor each year.
Last year, in the aftermath of hurricanes Emily and Wilma, I was not able to get a fundraising campaign organized. So many of you contacted me as regular, ongoing donors to the campaign and asked when and where to send your donations. I was honored by your confidence in me and pleased to know that folks were still interested in supporting a good community cause. While I no longer serve on the Carnaval Committee, I am still active in finding donations for the childrens events but on a much smaller scale. However, there are still many worthwhile community efforts worthy of a large scale fundraising endeavor and I have selected a very important one to bring to your attention now.
I am sending this announcement to launch a Fundraising Campaign for The Cozumel Marine Turtle Salvation Program. I personally have been working the beaches in the Turtle Salvation Program for 10 years now. I serve on the managing Committee and as a brigade leader who goes out each week with the volunteers one night a week from 10pm until dawn.
The Cozumel Marine Turtle Salvation Program actually began over 25 years ago as a grassroots effort by a few concerned individuals who wanted to help the nesting turtle population of the island survive widespread poaching. Despite little or no funding and limited manpower over the years, the Turtle Salvation Program continues to grow and produce amazing results.
This past 2006 Season, over 100 volunteers divided into brigades and worked every night from May 15 until November 15
protecting the turtles and their nests. Each year the brigades record amazing hatch rate statistics that show this species is not yet ready to leave this planet and deserves the best possible chance we can provide for its survival.
You can read more about the activities and results of The Turtle Program here
The Marine Turtle Salvation Program is a municipal initiative and receives some limited funding each year. Typically there are enough funds to pay 2 or 3 student biologists from May until November and then a bit extra for supplies. However, each year the quantity of nests being monitored increases and the number of volunteers needing supplies increases so the funds provided by the City are never really enough to provide the supplies and equipment necessary to work safely and effectively with the turtles.
The goal of this Fundraising Campaign is to raise $100,000 Pesos (approx. US$ 10,000) that will be utilized to improve and elevate the quality of the program by purchasing the following ~
Sufficient quantities of basic supplies such as protective gloves, batteries and flashlights for each brigade.
Sufficient quantities of radios, GPS and measuring devices for each brigade.
Basic laboratory and scientific equipment for the biologists to facilitate research and documentation during the season.
Computer/software and photographic equipment for scientific data collection and documentation.
2 ATV motos to assist in the patrolling of beaches and movement of volunteers.
This Fundraising Campaign is beginning now with
and the intention of terminating in time to help support the upcoming seasons efforts which will begin April 15
2007. This campaign timeframe will also work well from a donation collections standpoint. The locals wanting to support the program will have a bit extra to contribute since it is high season and visitors wanting to contribute can personally deliver their donations if they plan to be here during these very popular vacation months. By closing the campaign March 15
, the funds will be on hand and ready for use as the Turtle Salvation Program begins its work April 15
each year.
Since this is the FIRST Fundraising Campaign for the Marine Turtle Salvation Program of Cozumel, it is with great pleasure I announce that Dive Paradise has kicked off the 2007 Campaign with a US$1,000 donation! (Thank You Apple!!!)
This Turtle Salvation Program Fundraising Campaign will begin now with PLEDGES OR DONATIONS and run until
March 15, 2007
. We will do our best to post interim status and recognition of donors on a special page on the Citys website as well as cozumelinsider.com so everyone can keep tabs on progress in the fundraising. The final deadline for receiving contributions is March 31, 2007
since the season begins shortly thereafter.
I kindly ask all of you to please consider donating to this cause and taking a more active part in helping conserve one of Cozumels most precious treasures: the nesting sea turtles. Making a donation is easy and will be explained in the next email update. I will also use the next email to introduce the Coordinator of the Turtle Salvation Program, Cristopher Gonzales Baca, so that he may share a few words directly with you.
My own personal concern regarding the turtle program and its continued effectiveness lies in the increasing pressure being placed on the City by developers who want beachfront properties. For all of these millions of years, Cozumels east side has been wild and left to nature and this is where the turtles return every year.
If the City yields to the pressure to develop all of the east side of the island, then the turtles will have no nesting grounds to return to annually and it will most likely mean even further reduced funding for the Turtle Salvation Program because the turtles will then be considered in the way of development and in no need of protection. This is why the Fundraising Campaign is a critical endeavor. Right now, the Program needs supplemental funds for critical supplies and scientific equipment but the funding needs could be greater in the future. We must try to ensure that development co-existing with nesting turtles is not only appropriate but absolutely necessary due to the broad based support of the community for Turtle Salvation in Cozumel.
By initiating this Fundraising Campaign and by organizing/documenting (via a website) the existence of a broad based support group for Cozumels Turtle Program, hopefully the City will begin to recognize the value that others see in leaving at least part of the east side just as it is ~ home to nature and the turtles. The next section of information below details the various ways in which you can participate in the fundraising drive and the recognition items received for the various levels of participation. So please review it, think about it and email me your pledge amount or make a donation as soon as possible!!
Please pass this on or forward to anyone you feel might be interested in donating to help the Turtle Salvation Program of Cozumel in 2007!!

Felon from New Ulm indicted for possessing four firearms
MINNEAPOLIS – A 49-year-old New Ulm man was indicted Monday in federal court for possessing four firearms.
Buck Otto White, also known as Timothy Joseph Hoffman was charged with one count of being felon in possession of a firearm, according to a U.S. Attorney's Office news release. He is currently held in the Nicollet County Jail.
The indictment alleges that on Feb. 14, 2013, White possessed a 10-gauge shotgun, .22 caliber rifle, 12-gauge shotgun, and a 7.62-caliber rifle. Because he is a felon, White is prohibited under federal law from possessing firearms or ammunition at any time.
His prior convictions include second-degree burglary (Hennepin County 1984), first-degree attempted burglary (Anoka County 1991), second-degree burglary (Kanabec County 1995), fourth-degree assault (Anoka County 1994), and attempted first-degree controlled substance law violation (Hennepin County 1996).
Because these convictions constitute crimes of violence or drug trafficking, White is subject to the federal Armed Career Criminal Act that mandates a minimum of 15 years in prison for anyone subsequently convicted in federal court of being a felon in possession of a firearm and/or ammunition.
The case is a result of an investigation by the Nicollet County Sheriff's Office, New Ulm Police and the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. It is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Newberry.
An indictment is a determination by a grand jury that there is probable cause to believe that offenses have been committed by a defendant. A defendant, of course, is presumed innocent until he or she pleads guilty or is proven guilty at trial.
Last month, White was accused of burglarizing St. Peter storage units. Investigators used a GPS-tracking device to link the burglaries to White.

Evergrey have been a trusted name in Progressive Metal for about 10 years now, always capable of delivering their unique brand of melodic progressive metal with a darker twist to it. In the early 2000's they put out a string of untouchable albums, but then something happened. Two years ago, the band faltered, breaking their streak of otherwise great albums. Monday Morning Apocalypse failed to not only impress me, but many other Evergrey fans. It's concentration on down-tuned chugga-chugga riffs with little melodic substance to go with it was the first turn off. Second came the annoying vocal effects which really put a damper on Tom Englund's already subpar vocal performance. And to round out the dissapointments, the album sounded very poor, a far cry from Andy Laroque-produced masterpieces of In Search of Truth and Recreation Day. Now that we are faced with a new Evergrey album in the form of "Torn", there are many many questions in my mind going in. If this was going to be another Monday Morning Apocalypse, I wasn't even sure I would buy it to keep my collection complete. On the other hand, there was the chance for the band to grasp back at some of their former glory. Thus, I was extremely anxious to hear what they came up with.
Things start off with "Broken Wings", which does very well to set the tone for the album. It becomes pretty apparent within the first minute what the band's intentions were here. The band haven't really diminished the down-tuned heaviness present on the last album, they've merely made it more tolerable by accompanying with tasty guitar harmonies and melodic elements, much more in the style of past albums such as Recreation Day. By the time we arrive at the chorus, my foot is already well into tapping. The second verse is a bit of scare, with some of the vocal effects of the last album, but not to worry, it's one of the only times you'll hear them on the album. This is surprisingly "uptempo" by Evergrey standards, but by no means lacks the emotional punch of many of their previous works. This is certainly no "The Masterplan", but is easily an improvement and did well to put many of my early fears to rest. "Soaked" greets us with a very confrontational vocal-driven intro, which really took me by surprise. This track helps establish a blessing and a curse theme of the album. Many of the verses to be found here are nothing really impressive, but the choruses are really strong and memorable. The solo here is really excellent. I think both Tom and Henrik play parts of it, and the whole thing works really really well. "Fear" follows almost step-by-step in its predecessors tracks... with medicore verses and a really great chorus. The album's fourth track, "When Kingdoms Fall" is its second taste of greatness (next to the opener). It offers a nice change of pace, allowing some piano and whatnot to drive the opening verse, rather than the down-tuned guitars. The chorus is another melodic one, featuring another great and emotional vocal performance by Tom Englund. The instrumental section to this one is a real keeper as well, this track is just all around very good, possibly the highlight of the album for me actually. "In Cofidence" really brings nothing new to the table, and falls neither among the best nor weakest tracks on the album. "Fail", the track the band chose to release in advance, is a good taste of the album, and probably ranks among its better tracks for me. This song doesn't suffer from the same drastic quality difference between verses and choruses that many others do. The instrumental sections also offer some really sweet guitar harmonies. This track also probably bears more in common with older Evergrey than most of the rest of this CD. The next highlight track to be mention here is the title track, "Torn". The acoustic guitars on the verses here are a really nice break from the heaviness of the rest of the album, almost reminiscent of something from The Dark Discovery ("As Light is Our Darkness"). This is probably the closest thing this album has to a ballad, and is probably the most emotional track on here, which is saying a lot for a band like Evergrey. "Nothing is Erased" and "Still Walk Alone" are more or less cut from the same mold of good-but-not-greatness, the former being the better of the two. So, we arrive at the final track, "These Scars", on which a lot of pressure fell. Things get off to a fairly standard start with the verses, but the chorus shows all the rhythm guitars drop out at first, leading the way for a really nice post-chorus harmony which Evergrey can never have too many of. This track treats us to a great underappreciated bonus of Evergrey, Tom's wife, Carina Englund. She gets an entire vocal passage to herself her, which is really awesome and adds a great touch to the track. Following that we have some nice keyboards which, while being more present here than on MMA, are still under-used. After a nice instrumental section we are returned to the final choruses and instrumental section. The track ends with about 45 seconds worth of orchestral outro in the vein of the track Recreation Day. This track definitely leaves an overall good taste in your mouth.
So, what do we have here? I'll be frank. There are two things I will say in confidence (pun intended) about this album. First of all, this is a very big improvement over Monday Morning Apocalypse. Second, this is not the glorious return to the past that it could have been. This is no doubt a good, enjoyable album, but it stills fall short of the band's best works. Any dissapointment aside, I am more excited than I am upset, as this album renews my faith in Evergrey, one of my favorite bands. This album proves that they still have all that it takes to delivery some really great material, and I'm happy with it.

Early partisanship
To the editor:
I was disappointed to read in the Wednesday, Jan. 9, issue of the Marshall Independent that Rep. (Chris) Swedzinski gave support for a partisan attack on Rep. Jean Wagenius as chair of the Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture Finance Committee in the House by attempting to shift the control of the state agriculture budget from her division. This does not enhance our area of the state for receiving support for agriculture by attempting to remove the recently appointed chair of the House Agriculture finance Committee which is combined with Environment and natural Resources. with fewer farmers on land and a continuing loss of population in our area, we need to build connections with others including Rep. Wagenius. Agriculture has a stewardship connection to both the environment and natural resources. Good farming enhances our natural resources and our environment.
It is also kind of sad that on family day at the capitol in which most of all the legislators' families are present with legislators and the first day of the session that partisanship had to happen. If this state is going to move forward, we need area legislators reaching across party line and working together like we saw this last week when we saw Rep. Joe Atkins, DFL-Inver Grove Heights, and Sen. Tony Lourey, DFL-Kerrick, introduce a health care exchange bill to improve health care for all Minnesotans and did this along with Rep. Jim Abler, R-Anoka, and Rep. Greg Davids, R-Preston.
On Monday, Jan. 15, the house rules committee rejected the move by Rep. Rod Hamilton, R-Mountain Lake, and former chair of the house Ag Policy and Finance to remove jurisdiction of Ag Finance from Rep. Wagenius. In answer to the Jan. 10 headline of the Independent, are rural lawmakers going to get stifled? The answer is yes if they don't develop a relationship with the committee and chair, Rep. Wagenius. I'd say they are off to a bad start. I hope this session improves with our area legislators reaching out across the urban/rural divide (build connections) and leave partisanship to the election cycle.

Bladder stones in dogs are a somewhat common condition that can lead to complications for the canine if left untreated. All pet owners should take the time to understand how bladder stones are formed and what can be done to help treat the dog if the condition develops.
It helps to have an idea of how bladder stones form. It may be difficult to comprehend how rock-like minerals find their way into a dog's body. All dog food contains certain minerals that, while small, are similar in chemical composition to the rocks you would find outdoors. A dog's body is capable of breaking down these minerals and using them as nutrients. Some of these minerals are naturally found in the urine but they don't normally cause a problem because the acidity and concentration of the urine keeps the minerals dissolved.
However, certain bladder infections in dogs may cause the urine of a dog to become less acidic. Bacteria can increase the amount of ammonia in the bladder, which causes the urine to become less acidic. The urine is then unable to dissolve the minerals. Consequently, sharp pieces of these minerals can become embedded in the dog's bladder lining, attached to mucus. The bladder stone then becomes an amalgam of small minerals held together by the animal's mucus secretions.
While bladder stones are similar to kidney stones, a dog suffering from one of these conditions does not necessarily have the other. That being said, owners with dogs who have kidney-related diseases should be on the lookout for bladder stones, as they are more common in these animals.
Clinical signs of bladder stones in dogs include blood in the urine and straining to urinate. If an owner notices either of these two signs, they should take their dog to a veterinary clinic as soon as possible. Bladder stones that are untreated may eventually become lodged in the urethra, which will prevent the animal from emptying its bladder. This is an emergency situation which is extremely painful for the dog and will require quick action to fix.
Owners have two main options for dealing with bladder stones depending on the type of stone present. Surgery is a common option as the procedure is quite safe and dogs have a quick recovery period. However, it's also possible to break down some types of bladder stones over time with a change in diet and certain medications or supplements. Talk with your veterinarian about the best course of action for your animal so the pain of bladder stones can be avoided.

It is wrong for the government not to file a diplomatic protest over the Chinese naval vessel that was recently grounded 111 nautical miles from Hasa-Hasa in Palawan. No, the protest should not be that it grounded. Surely, a diplomatic protest cannot address the Chinese mariner's obvious lack of familiarity with the dangerous waters surrounding the Spratlys group of islands; a fact that militates against their so-called ancient claim to the area. The protest should be over what the navy vessel was doing in our waters in the first place: patrolling.
Sovereign states could not exercise sovereignty and jurisdiction in the exclusive economic zone since their so-called sovereign right is limited to the right to explore and exploit the resources found thereat. Still, foreign naval vessels, particularly in disputed territory, have no business patrolling the same. It should have been Philippine vessels from either the coast guard or our navy that should have been patrolling these waters in the first place.
The failure to protest the activity of Chinese vessels militates against our own claim because underiInternational law, the principle of estoppel has not only been consistently applied; it has also been ruled to be sufficient to extinguish title to territory even if one originally existed. For instance, in the case of the Preah Villar temple which was then disputed between Thailand and Cambodia, the International Court of Justice ruled the temple to be within the territory of Cambodia because. In the early 1900's, Thai authorities did not protest a map showing the temple to be in what was then the territory of France and today, of Cambodia.
Likewise, estoppel has been applied in the Eastern Greenland case between Norway and Denmark. There, the Permanent Court of International Justice cited Norway's recognition of Danish title over Eastern Greenland when it recognized such title as embodied in the so-called Ilian declaration. In fact, estoppel, defined as a rule of evidence whereby a person or a state is precluded from denying the truth of a statement of facts he or it has previously asserted -has been accepted as a general principle of law in international law. Further, estoppel has oftentimes enabled states to prove a superior claim to disputed territory where both claimants are able to invoke almost identical evidence of effective occupation. It is hence the legal principle that has tilted the balance in favor of one state in a dispute where both parties have equiponderance of evidence.
The fact that we have recently been filing quite a number of protests over recent Chinese aggression and hegemony in the Panatag Shoal should be of no consequence. The law, after all, does not put a cap on how many of these protests we can file. We should not limit the number of these protests. Instead, we should always protest when there is a legal ground, and document them properly since they constitute strong evidence of title. This is because they form clear evidence that we have been asserting our claims through the means recognized by diplomacy as the proper form: a diplomatic protest. It is when we stop making these protests that we may be ruled as either abandoning our rights, or sitting on them.
In any case, this is not the only time when we should have protested Chinese incursion into our territory. Not too long ago, the international media reported a collision between an American destroyer and a Chinese submarine off the coast of Zambales.
Instead of protesting that incident, the Arroyo administration opted to sweep it under the rug and neither confirmed nor denied the incident. Perhaps, what worried the former administration was adverse public opinion that the Visiting Forces Agreement — that has enabled American ships to dock and navigate through our waters — could in fact increase the probability of military confrontation between the world's lone superpower and the region's military giant. While we do not know exactly where that collision occurred –as the Arroyo administration in fact claimed that it took place in international waters — the reality is that bereft of underwater scanners and facilities that would enable us to determine the presence of Chinese submarines, we will not know if they are in our waters. Note that while all submarines could exercise innocent passage even in our territorial waters, defined as 12 nautical miles from our coast. Still, the requirement is that they must surface. In any case, the presence of submarines and other military vessels patrolling disputed EEZ are not innocent. They constitute a threat to our national security.
What is clear is that once more, our policy makers opted to be very Filipino in their recent conduct: opting not to add further coal to a burning fire. The only problem here is meanwhile, our adversary appears happy to pour gas onto the flames.

Visit the Virtual Pamphlets area for general information on a variety of counseling issues.
College students are dealing with many issues such as stress, family pressures, loneliness and other situations.
We can ...
Students frequently ask the following questions about confidentiality:
Counseling faculty take its policy on confidentiality extremely seriously. No matter who calls seeking information about students or alumni, the answer is always something like this: "We are not allowed to disclose any information about students without a written release of information from that student. Therefore, we are not even able to tell you whether a person has ever sought services here."
That means that students can seek counseling services at Counseling Services and rest assured that no one will know their business unless the student gives his or her permission for the counselor to release information. There are only three exceptions to this policy:
Our policy about confidentiality is based on state law and the ethics of the counseling profession. We believe strongly that students should be aware of how these policies work before they begin counseling. This is known as a client's informed consent. Counselors talk with students about these and other related issues in their first session.
You can receive short-term, individual counseling. While the office of Career Development and Counseling Services offers counseling services to meet the various needs of our student population, we do not provide psychotherapy nor psychiatric care beyond crisis intervention. For those students needing such services we will work with them to find an appropriate referral source
All registered BCTC students are eligible for an initial consultation appointment with a counselor in the Career Development and Counseling area. Some students don't need more than that one appointment. Those students who need or desire follow-up sessions are seen on a short-term basis (typically 1-10 sessions), or they are referred to other area agencies for follow-up counseling.
As Counselors, we are committed to promoting the personal growth and academic success of all BCTC students. Clearly, we recognize that the college experience can be exciting and rewarding for most students. At the same time, it can also have its challenges and difficulties. Our entire area is available to provide support and help to all students. To find out more about us, visit our Counselors page.
Career Development and Counseling Services serves all BCTC campuses.
Phone: (859) 246-6550 or toll-free 866-774-4872 ext. 56550.
All services are free and confidential. Evening appointments are gladly made upon request. Sometimes there is a short waiting period to get an appointment scheduled.
Psychological crises involve two kinds of situations: medical and non-medical. However, always err in the direction of safety.
Medical Psychological Emergency - one in which a person has cut him/herself, lost consciousness, taken pills or has in another way put their physical health in danger.
Non-Medical Psychological Crisis - this might include an individual who is hallucinating, who is disoriented, who is threatening to hurt or kill self or another, or who is depressed to the extent that their functioning and/or judgment is impaired.
If you are unsure about the person's safety, or unsure about whether the person is in imminent danger of hurting self or another, or if you are unable to reach your R.A. in time, do not hesitate to call 911. Either campus police or your local police will respond. They will make a determination about whether to transport the student to the university hospital, or a local hospital.
College is about much more than attending classes. The Career Development and Counseling faculty are here to help.

A Conversation With the Founder of Capsule, a 5-Star iOS/Android App: TheBeach Meets TheStreet
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- TheBeach Meets TheStreet rolls on.
Every Tuesday, expect an article that accompanies the edited version of the current week's conversation. Generally, we'll break it down into three parts:
1. An update on where we are with TheBeach Meets TheStreet , including a brief overview of past, present and future guests.
2. A discussion of the company featured in that week's episode.
3. A brief look at how the present week's founder and his/her experiences relate to the larger startup and/or tech scenes.
Each week we'll make improvements to TheBeach Meets TheStreet . Last time, I shot my entire conversation with Pandora (P) co-founder Tim Westergren myself. ( See the full uncut version via YouTube).
For this week's presentation with Cyrus Farudi, the co-founder of Southern California startup Capsule, Manoj Rao, CEO at Media 11:11 and co-producer of TheBeach Meets TheStreet shot the episode on an iPhone 5.
In weeks three and four, we'll make small, but important upgrades to the video and audio sides of the production. I enjoy the process of taking the reader/viewer on the same, organically evolving process we're navigating. Keeping it real, so to speak.
In week three (Tuesday, Feb. 26), we chat with Jonathan Calmus, the 22-year old co-founder of Beverly Hills-based Cuttle. Incredibly interesting person and story.
We're setting up time with the guy who co-founded StubHub, Jeff Fluhr, now founder and CEO at San Francisco's Spreecast as well as a simply huge guest who leads a public company and is one of the country's best-known and most successful serial entrepreneurs. Both coming in March.
As for Capsule, the edited video (see top of this article) and uncut version at YouTube illustrate the idea well. To help explain things in this article I created my own Capsule.
Based on the Apple (AAPL) and Android app store reviews Capsule has received -- most five stars -- people like it.
Capsule helps you manage the photos you and your friends (or, theoretically, strangers) take at an event. The company focuses on weddings now, but can and does serve just about any event. As Capsule gains more traction, expect more partnerships (Capsule is already the official wedding app of TheKnot.com) to expand the scope of the customer it targets. Think areas such as concerts and sporting events.
It's unlike social media such as Facebook (FB) , however, because Capsule is completely private. You can only join a specific Capsule if the person who created it invites you. I started a Capsule that you can access to if you want to see how it works.
So, if you have a wedding or other event where many different people (dozens, hundreds, even thousands) take photographs, you can give those of your choosing access to your Capsule, keeping all of that media in one place and accessible only to members of the Capsule. You control access. And you can send emails or texts to the group right from the app.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began studying patterns of violence in 1980. In 1992, CDC established the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) as the lead federal agency for violence prevention. The Division of Violence Prevention (DVP) is one of three divisions within NCIPC. DVP is committed to stopping violence before it begins and supports this goal through:
- Monitoring violence-related injuries
- Conducting research on the factors that put people at risk or protect them from violence
- Creating and evaluating the effectiveness of violence prevention programs
- Helping state and local partners plan, implement, and evaluate prevention programs
- Conducting research on the effective adoption and dissemination of prevention strategies
As with other public health problems, CDC addresses sexual violence using a systematic process called the public health approach. This approach has four steps: define the problem, identify risk and protective factors, develop and test prevention strategies, and assure widespread adoption of prevention principles and strategies.
The NSVRC works in collaboration with the CDC-funded projects listed below as part of a network focusing on violence prevention to ensure a more comprehensive strategy for service provision in the United States.
- National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center
- PREVENT, Preventing Violence Through Education, Networking and Technical Assistance
- Prevention Connection: The Violence Against Women Prevention Partnership
- VAWnet, The National Online Resource Center on Violence Against Women
Access the latest news about injury prevention from the CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control. These updates include general announcements, new publications, information for grantees, new funding announcements, job announcements and trainings of interest.
- CDC Fact Sheets
- CDC Sexual Violence Activities
- Developing Sexual Violence Prevention Planning Committees: Lessons Learned from EMPOWER (2007)
- This PowerPoint slideshow is from the March 27, 2007 webinar sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It discusses the requirements and recruitment strategies for Sexual Violence Prevention Planning committees as part of the Rape Prevention and Education Grant Program and provides lessons learned from the Empower Grant program.

Strengthening animal laws
Kristine Seabolt, Minot
North Dakota lawmakers are busy responding to citizen demands that the state's lackluster animal cruelty law be strengthened, and as the manager of the Souris Valley Animal Shelter I am pleased to see the debate that has emerged on the capitol floors over the necessity for laws that adequately punish animal abusers here.
We believe that this conversation can result in improved lives for animals in the Roughrider State, and that state lawmakers are working toward fulfilling their political promises to build strong punishments into the law for the worst offenses. S.B. 2211 shows promise, but it is far from perfect. We can only hope that the House closes current draft loopholes that would allow criminal defendants to escape prosecution if they can show that they are breeding or training animals, potentially creating a loophole for cruelty and neglect by puppy mills and other large-scale breeders. It would also be a shame-in a state where herds of animals are the norm-if an amendment passes to S.B. 2211 that further specifies that any violation of neglect, animal abuse or animal abandonment involving more than one animal in the same incident amounts to a single offense for purposes of determining whether the violation is a first, second, third or subsequent offense. The herd of 250 Burleigh and Morton counties horses would be treated as one incident if that language passes, and that doesn't pass muster.
On the surface, S.B. 2211 in its current form would make malicious acts of animal cruelty punishable by up a class "C" felony. Acts of neglect, animal abuse and animal abandonment are not punishable as a felony unless three separate offenses occur within 10 years.
We don't need any more exemptions. We just need cruelty to be treated as cruelty in the eyes of our laws. Let's keep this conversation going, and keep our concerns flowing into our representatives' chambers: North Dakotans care about our animals. Let's start treating them that way. Pass S.B. 2211, but please strengthen it!
