Had an experience I think may be devine
As many of you know I had a stoke last week. I became pretty religious due to the experiance i had wit cancer.
Anyway I have.been paying a lot and had a piest say a healing prayer over me later I was praying and had a vision of a spirit or cloud lifting out of me i suddenly sat up and started moving everything like I never had a stroke. The next day everything was back to the same perslisys I figured it was a dream but bot my mother and father saw me get up and start moving and this was no dream so I asked the docs none could explain however I asked a priest. Hsad it was god lifting the burden out of me and showing me what the end result of rehab will be another peist said the exact samething.
Rehab over last few days and am close to walking. Pehas this was God.
I thought I would at least some how be involved here.
Glad to hear your doing better man, I am not very religious but sometimes faith gives man a reason to push through and find inner strength.
I'm not religious but I am open to the concept of a higher power but that's irrelevant here, I'm just super stoked to hear you are on the mend. Keep us updated man! Best wishes.
Are there any threads on this board that debate religion? I know those kind of threads can get touchy.
The mind is the most powerful creation. Harness it and will yourself back to 100% health with the help of GOD.

This month, the Rule Breaker managers will "Break Down" (meaning dissect and analyze) several new companies to see if any meet the six Rule Breaker criteria well enough to become a new portfolio purchase, which is the goal. Your participation is requested in the month's study, so welcome to Break Down August!
Not only is August "National Golf Month," "National Parks Month," and the month that The Motley Fool launched itself online in 1994, but, in the Rule Breaker this year, August is the start of our first "Break Down" session. We're calling it Break Down August.
Now, this doesn't mean that we are all going to break down publicly and tell you painful stories from our lives -- such as when I was hit in the head as a child by a rock-throwing bandit. It also doesn't mean that the Rule Breaker Port itself is going to break down. (Although we're long-term investors and, therefore, any single year doesn't weigh too heavily with us, it is worth saying that this port has already broken down to the tune of more than 25% this year! So, we're not hoping for more of this kind of break down in August.)
What "Break Down August" means
Break Down August means precisely this: We are going to be breaking down (dissecting and analyzing) the businesses and opportunities of a small cadre of potential Rule Breaking companies,to hopefully find ourselves a new investment to purchase.
We are aiming to break down two companies per week in our columns this month, devoting at least one entire column to each company and, more often, two columns will be granted to each company. A Break Down will consist of providing you all of the pertinent information about a company's business that we can, and then it will run that company through our six Rule Breaker criteria, namely:
Is the company a top dog and first mover in an important, emerging industry? Does it have a sustainable advantage? What about smart management and good backing? Has its stock displayed excellent share-price appreciation? Finally, the greater the consumer brand, the better, in our opinion -- and we're also hoping that the media has recently called the company grossly overvalued. (Yes, when we Break Down several potential Rule Breaker companies this month, they will be run through these six wringers, like a Grranimals ostrich shirt being manually dried.)
You are a big part of the break down
We plan to run at least eight potential Rule Breaker companies through the paces this month, and we hope to have as much participation from you as you care to give. Each Break Down will end with a call to meet on the discussion boards to discuss the company. What key issues did we miss? What have we gotten right? Do you believe the company is a Rule Breaker? What additional insight can you provide about its industry? If you have little to say, you can just read the boards each night to see what other Fools are saying about each company.
August is 31 days long -- the dog days of summer. Rather than being lazy dogs ourselves, we're going to squeeze all the good out of this month that we can. When the cooling air of September finds us, we hope to have our hands on a new Rule Breaker.
From the Motley Fool's Rule Breaker investment strategy team, welcome to Break Down August!

The first few years of your baby's life are critical. Thus, it makes sense that the crib you choose for your baby is one of the most important choices you have to make. With so many styles and options available on baby cribs today, purchasing the perfect baby crib can be a daunting task. Don't be overwhelmed! There are several factors to consider that will make the task much easier.
Get familiar with crib styles.
There are many styles to choose from, including convertible cribs, sleigh-style cribs, solid back panel cribs, round cribs, traditional cribs and even canopy cribs.
In today's society, convertible cribs are of popular choice. Convertible cribs convert to a toddler's bed and can be converted into a full-sized bed and some can even convert into a queen bed. Although convertible cribs maybe more expensive than the traditional cribs, they save you money in the long run. These are the perfect cribs for parents who wish to make their baby's bed a worthwhile investment.
Most sleigh-style cribs fall into the category of convertible cribs. These cribs are designed to look like a sleigh and have a quaint appeal. Most sleigh cribs convert to a toddler's bed or full sized bed. They are also very popular in today's traditional nursery.
One topic many parents might argue is that many convertible cribs in the market usually end up looking like cheap or non-stylish toddler's and full-size beds once transformed. However, it is not true for all cribs. It is a matter of researching the right company and cribs. Solid black panel cribs, for example, are very charming with intricate details and carvings. Some of these cribs also fall into the convertible cribs category and are of high-quality. Once transformed, these types of cribs add soothing charm and warmth to any room.
Choosing the correct convertible crib, actually any crib in general, is a difficult task but the main things to consider apart from style and finish are the materials used and the size of the other furnishings. Making sure excellent quality materials are used for the construction of the crib is essential, especially in a convertible crib that will grow with the baby. The size of the accompanying pieces, such as dressers or bookcases, is important too. Parents should make sure the pieces have enough room for storage and are adult sized pieces, such as those carried by Baby's Dream Furniture. By making sure the size of the complementary furniture is adult sized, parents will be saving money for there will be no need to buy furnishings later on.
Deciding what style of crib is best is a matter of personal choice, just remember the details. What will you use your crib for? Do you prefer a basic crib to start off? Or do you want to save money in the long run and buy a piece of furniture that will grow with your child, such as a convertible crib? Do the case pieces, such as dressers, have enough storage? No matter the style of the crib, make sure it fits your needs and the baby's needs.
Decide on the look and finish.
With the ability to make custom cribs, you can find cribs in almost any finish. These can range from traditional finishes, such as espresso, to modern finishes, such as glacier white. Do you prefer dark woods and simple lines? Look for a traditional-style crib in an espresso finish. If it's light woods and carved details you crave, then look to modern baby furniture for your nursery in a light contemporary finish. Once you choose the style and finish, it is time to focus on the features.
Safety as a priority.
A baby's crib is about the only place you'd think of leaving your baby unattended. Therefore, safety is of upmost importance. For safety's sake the slats on a crib should be no more than 2 3/8 inches apart; this is required by law on new cribs made in the United States and Canada. You will also want to avoid drop-side cribs because they pose a serious threat to your baby and were banned by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. Instead, parents have the option of using safety-gate cribs. These cribs are revolutionary as they allow the parent to reach the baby with the same easiness of a drop-down crib, but the baby is in a safer environment.
Nevertheless, the gold standard for safety measures is a certification from the Juvenile Products Manufacturer's Association (JPMA). The JPMA Certification Seal on a product tells consumers this product has been verified as conforming to the requirements established by ASTM, through independent laboratory testing and follow-up on-site inspection of the manufacturer's production line. These standards are stricter and safer than the mandatory safety standards promulgated by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Federal law mandates that all baby cribs sold in the United States must conform to the less stringent CPSC standards.
The JPMA symbol of certification is a symbol of confidence that the juvenile products have met these performance standards, surpassing those less demanding of the CPSC. The best juvenile products are JPMA Certified!
For more information, please check out the JPMA Website.

I was running Vista Home Premium and all was fine. I had been eyeing Ultimate as an upgrade choice for a while and a friend of mine had purchased Ultimate Upgrade for himself and decided he didn't want it.
Instead of him returning it unopened to the store I decided to upgrade myself. I bought it from him and installed it, all went fine and I am running Ultimate now.
What I should of noticed before I decided to upgrade was that there were large differences between Home Premium and Ultimate that I would be taking advantage of.
Here is my question. I have not activated Ultimate yet and have 26 more days to decided before I enter the new product key. Since I am finally realizing that I really don't need Ultimate and my friend is willing to refund my money, can I go back to my Home Premium? If so, can someone direct me on how to do so? If not, I guess I will just have to activate Ultimate.
Thank you.

Heritage Heroes
Leonard Woolley 1880-1960
Sir Charles Leonard Woolley was one of the first 'modern' archaeologists, who excavated in a methodical way, keeping careful records, and using them to reconstruct ancient life and history. His approach was essentially that of an architect rather than an art-historian, and he paid careful attention to how buildings were constructed, used, and then decayed. He was therefore able to unravel the complicated sequences of occupation at Ur and other places, whereas many of his predecessors (and indeed contemporaries) searched for interesting objects without much regard for their contexts, rendering them of far less research value.
Woolley worked previously at Carchemish, in northern Syria with T.E. Lawrence, from 1912-14. His very able foreman, Hammoudi, travelled to work with him at Ur. After 1935 Woolley conducted excavations at Alalakh, in southern Turkey, interrupted by the War, until 1949. He devoted the rest of his life to writing up his results from Ur, which appeared in ten volumes, still essential reading today. Notorious for his energy and very hard work – he expected the same of his team – he was knighted in1935 for his services to archaeology.
Fuad Safar 1911-1978
Professor Fuad Safar was one of the first Iraqis to gain a higher degree in archaeology, and to lead scientific excavations. Born and educated in Mosul, he studied for his MA at the Oriental Institute in Chicago, returning to Iraq in 1938. He established, with others, the Department of Archaeology at the Faculty of Arts, University of Baghdad, in 1951, and in 1958 became Director General of Antiquities.
Some of the most significant discoveries of 20th century archaeology in Iraq were made under Fuad's direction. These include the extraordinary sequence of temples ar Eridu, reaching back to the 'Ubaid period; the unique Uruk period painted temple at 'Uqair, and Tell Hassuna, which took the history of agriculture back to the 6thmillennium BC. He also discovered the Assyrian aqueduct of Sennacherib at Jerwan, worked on the 'Ummayad palace at Wasit, and later on the Parthian city of Hatra.
Fuad was renowned for the generosity with which he shared his knowledge and experience, and several of the achievements listed above were collaborations with others, such as Seton Lloyd and Muhammed Ali Mustafa. Under the Ba'ath regime his activities and communications suffered from restrictions, yet he continued to serve Iraqi archaeology until the very day of his death in a car accident, on his way to advise on the rescue excavations of the Hamrin dam project.
Gertrude Bell 1868-1926
It is hard to describe Gertrude Bell's profession in the singular, as she was successful in many different spheres. Born in northern England, she travelled in the Middle East, exploring, learning Arabic, and writing about her activities. Keenly interested in the archaeology of Mesopotamia, she was the first to record the great desert fortress of Ukhaidhir, and was friends with the German excavators of Babylon and Assur, as well as with T.E. Lawrence and Leonard Woolley.
Today Gertrude Bell is mainly remembered for her political work for the British government during the creation of the state of Iraq, but it was she who set out the Antiquities Law and founded the Iraq Museum, ensuring that the best finds from Ur were among its first exhibits. It was an uphill struggle, and the exertions claimed her life at the age of 57. She is buried in Baghdad, where her tomb is today privately maintained by a young Iraqi admirer of her achievements.

How about you pay for the inspection your self.? That way he is a private contractor, that could be licensed by the state, therefor making money for the state and him or her self. If I want my bees inspected, I pay not, you and the rest of the people.That's the way I see it working as it should be. Bet you would get better service. What you say about that? Less government,better service. What an idea.
How about you pay for the inspection yourself.?
I have no idea how to find out whom my local inspector is.
Whoa,calm down here.Where are you getting the idea he's a bureaucrat with a desk job? Inspecting bees is a real job,especially in large apaiaries and the distances one must travel to get to some of them.He has put on picnics and tours of his apiary at his home as well as bringing beginner youth groups to show them about beekeeping.He has mentored a lot of people in one way or another and is very giving of his time.The inspectors around here take their time to go to the beekeepers club meetings.They all would take a direct call if you had a question or problem.He has a "real" job plus doing inspections and mentoring. No personal attack needed on someone you don't know.He was originally hired because of being an experienced keeper.Our inspectors worked long days and weekends to get the inspections done.He does not come to the apiary with a chip on his shoulder. Don't take it personal on him if the state pulls funding of the inspector.
I want my ticket money back

As London gears up to host the greatest show on earth, a team of lawyers is hard at work behind the scenes drafting vital contracts that will ensure every need of both the athletes and spectators at the Olympics is catered for.
Part of that team, which is responsible for sourcing and supplying all goods and services imaginable for the London 2012 Olympics, is Freshfields Bruckhuas Deringer corporate associate Kate Cooper.
She recently returned from a secondment with the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Locog) procurement department, which was charged with procuring items such as 100,000 condoms (40,000 more than at Beijing) and 10,000 portable toilets for the events.
As the biggest procurement exercise in the world, it was hardly surprising that during Cooper's secondment Locog had already procured around £400m worth of goods and services, with another £450m in the pipeline.
"We needed to procure all sorts of goods and services to put on the games, including the victory medals for the athletes and torches to carry the Olympic flame around the country," explains Cooper.
Indeed, according to Cooper it was the 10,000 torches that raised some of the most complex legal issues.
"We wanted a best-of-British story so that meant working with a separate London-based designer and a British engineer and manufacturer to create a vertical supply chain over which Locog would have ultimate control," she says.
This was necessary because Locog needed to be in a position to oversee the whole project to balance the needs of the various stakeholders such as Coca-Cola, the sponsors of the torch relay, and the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The lawyers had to put in place a supply chain going from the sketches of the iconic design, through to testing by engineers for wind and rain resistance, to the ultimate production and delivery of the 10,000 torches to be taken around the country.
"It wasn't simply a case of asking one party to produce an off-the-shelf product," recalls Cooper. "It involved a complex set of legal arrangements, which identified and allocated the risks involved in this bespoke project among each of the key players."
Another major challenge faced by the procurement team involved coming up with appropriate remedies in the contractual arrangements with suppliers because those typically contained in day-to-day supply agreements, such as service credits and refunds, are generally unsuitable for one-off events.
"We need absolute certainty of supply, and we need to think through and avert any risks associated with that supply well ahead of time," Cooper explains. "You can't just say to an athlete that their medal's stuck in the post or that the torch relay has to start late because the production deadlines for the torch have been missed."
Meanwhile, procuring the 4,700 victory medals gave Cooper an insight into the world of precious metals, which are being supplied by mining giant Rio Tinto, the official metal sponsor of the games. Six grams of gold are needed for each gold medal, with each one weighing around 400g. Each silver and bronze medal weighs around 350g.
"The torch and medals are hugely symbolic to many stakeholders, including the organising committee, IOC, IPC [International Paralympic Committee], the Government, sponsors and athletes, so we had to make sure in negotiating the deal to produce the medals that expectations on all sides were managed and reflected in the finished product," says Cooper.
With the games expected to pull in nine million spectators and with some 15,000 athletes taking part, the procurement team has also had its work cut out sourcing 14 million meals, including 25,000 bread loaves, 100 tonnes of meat and 300 tonnes of fruit and vegetables. It is, therefore, no wonder that every single portable toilet in the country will be making its way to London next year, forcing the cancellation of events such as the 2012 Glastonbury Festival.
Indeed, Locog, in a bid to boost London 2012's green credentials, is taking its responsibility towards waste management very seriously. For every person attending the games, it is estimated that 61g of waste will be produced per hour, and it is Locog's aim that none of this will end up in landfill but will instead be recycled.
With just 437 days left until the starting guns are fired, Cooper and the rest of her Freshfields colleagues, who have been providing legal advice to Locog since 2003, do not have long to go before they finally see the results of all those years of hard work.
"It was a fascinating experience and I feel really privileged to have been part of the team and, of course, can't wait to see all the planning and preparation come together for what I'm sure will be a spectacular event," concludes Cooper.

The Meaning of The Death Card in a Love Tarot Reading.
It is often assumed that the Death card in a love tarot reading signifies the sorrowful end of love or a relationship. While this may sometimes be the case, this is definitely not always true nor does it represent the complete meaning of the Death Tarot card.
The true meaning associated with the Death card is one which represents the completion of a life cycle or pattern, where one stage is coming to an end and a new one is beginning. Although Death is often interpreted as destructive, it is in truth, an opportunity for something new and much greater. It is not only an ending, but it is also a rebirth. Death is the card of transformation. It represents the commencement of profound change at one's deepest core. Death can be an act of generosity as it cleanses and purges the remnants of our old lives and brings hope for a better future. Death plants the seeds for the growth of tomorrow.
In a love tarot reading, the Death card often indicates that one cycle of a relationship is ending. It is in essence a metaphorical death, not a literal one. It does not necessarily mean that a couple may fall out of love, break-up or have a divorce. It can also refer to the completion of important life stages in a relationship or a major metamorphosis in how a couple relates to each other. While this signifies the ending to one cycle, it also signifies the start of a new one where old beliefs or ideas are discarded for new ones. It can be the rebirth of one's psyche or even a fresh start that brings about a new understanding in an old relationship.
In relationships that have come to a standstill, Death can be a wake-up call. It is reminding us to open our eyes and embrace the world around us. In this regard, it may refer to our own lack of perspective. In a love tarot reading, the Death card encourages you to take a good look at your relationship. It's quite likely that your old methods of communicating have become outdated. It's important to acknowledge the areas that you are feeling stuck. The goal is to find a new perspective, a new way of seeing, that will enable the relationship to merge and grow into something new.
In some cases , the Death card can signify a need to let go. Relationships that resist change tend to get lost and lose momentum. It is at this point that a relationship must either come to an end or, be willing to let go of its old identity to form a new one. Major change is inevitable. To be successful, it may be time to broaden your perspectives and explore new areas and interest that bring you together on an entirely new level.

text: All right, guys and gals, here's a good one. Ideas anyone?? This, on a 2004 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 Extended cab. The Truck has over 200,000 miles and seems to running like a top. Here is the issue: This only affects the left hand blinker. On occasion (Not every time I use the left hand blinker), my left hand blinker will "freeze On". The blinker symbol on the instrument panel will show the blinker on, but no blink. Other times, the blinker will blink fine UNTIL I apply the brake. Then, the blinking stops, and the brake light is on. There are other occasions, where I apply the brake, and the left blinker symbol lights up on the Instrument panel. Weird, I know. I can also turn off the blinker if the brakes are applied (and causing the blinker to stay "stuck on"), and turn the blinker back on and many times it blinks correctly. Anybody else seen this? The blinker and the brake light are two seperate bulbs if memory serves. There doesn't seem to be any commonality there. I do have the factory trailer towing package on the truck. It has been on there from the factory. This is a intermittent situation. It seems to do it MORE, AFTER the Truck has been running a while. So, that would be the first issue. The second issue, PROBABLY easier to solve. Again, an intermittent deal. On many occasions, when I turn off my Truck and exit through the driver's door, The truck does not see the door open. The cab lights do not come on, and the radio remains playing. This happens on occasion, also when entering the Truck. I open the door, and there is no light. I realize there is some sort of switch somewhere. I don't understand fully, where that is. The passenger door will also do it every once in a while. I wonder if ALL these electrical gremlins might be related. Some sort of bad ground perhaps? El Nino (haven't used that as an excuse in years, LOL). Any insight you folks have would be most appreciated.

Colombians, tired of being called 'Columbians,' launch social media campaign to educate violators
For Paris Hilton, former presidents, and even P.F. Chang's, the correct spelling of Colombia (yes, the South American country) is a challenge. A common mistake is to replace the second "o" with a "u," spelling it the way one would when writing out the name of the university or the nation's capital. And frankly, Colombians are sick of it, so they're launching a new movement called "It's Colombia, NOT Columbia."
Tens of thousands of supporters are publicly shaming violators by trawling Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook for the misspelling and posting about it with the hashtag #itscolombianotcolumbia. One of the campaign's creators, Carlos Pardo, told the Wall Street Journal that he just wants to educate people.
"We're not trying to insult the people or companies that make this mistake," Pardo said. "We don't say 'Hey, idiot, fix it!' We just say 'Dear so-and-so, it's Colombia, not Columbia.'"
The spelling error suggests to Colombians that you're insulting their country. Spelling the country's name correctly, Pardo and his followers hope, will encourage the world to realize that Colombia isn't a hotbed for cocaine and terrorism, but a beautiful place with a thriving economy. "We Colombians have a confidence about our country we didn't have before," said spelling activist Tatiana González. Jordan Valinsky
President Trump helped lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery on Monday, a remembrance of fallen soldiers on Memorial Day, then made his first public remarks since returning from a nine-day trip to Europe and the Middle East on Saturday. "We only hope that every day we can prove worthy, not only of their sacrifice and service, but of the sacrifice made by the families and loved ones they left behind," Trump said, making a special mention of Robert Kelly, a son of Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly who died in Afghanistan after stepping on a mine. He also generally thanked members of other Gold Star families, who have lost family members in war, and urged other Americans to thank them, too. "To every Gold Star family: God is with you, and your loved ones are with him." Trump said. You can watch the wreath-laying ceremony below. Peter Weber

Reports over the past few days that Jared Kushner, President Trump's senior adviser and son-in-law, tried to set up secret backchannel communications with the Kremlin using Russian diplomatic facilities in December, when he was a private citizen and Trump president-elect, have shaken Kushner's safe perch at the White House, The New York Times reports. "The Trump-Kushner relationship, the most stable partnership in an often unstable West Wing, is showing unmistakable signs of strain."
White House officials spent the weekend defending the use of back-channel diplomacy, generally, with Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly telling ABC News on Sunday that "any way that you can communicate with people, particularly organizations that are maybe not particularly friendly to us, is a good thing." Experts outside the White House disagree, at least in this specific case. "There's no way that it can be appropriate to say, 'I want to use a hostile government's communications system to avoid our government knowing anything about it,'" Eliot Cohen, a Republican foreign policy stalwart, tells The Washington Post. Rep. Adam Schiff (Calif.), ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, called Sunday for a review of Kushner's security clearance because, among other reasons, he did not disclose his backchannel overtures on his application form.
The new Kushner focus in the Russian investigation has imperiled his "hard-won influence on a mercurial father-in-law who is eager to put distance between himself and a scandal that is swamping his agenda and, he believes, threatening his family," says The New York Times. "That relationship had already begun to fray a bit" due to Kushner's "repeated attempts to oust Stephen K. Bannon," Kushner's family hawking visas-for-cash in Beijing, and Kushner's counsel that firing FBI Director James Comey "would be a political 'win' that would neutralize protesting Democrats because they had called for Mr. Comey's ouster," The Times reports, citing "six West Wing aides."
Trump put out a statement on Sunday calling Kushner "a very good person" who is "doing a great job for the country," adding "I have total confidence in him." But White House aides, some of whom call him "Jared Island" because of his unique and untouchable role, say that Trump has "increasingly included Mr. Kushner when he dresses down aides and officials, a rarity earlier in his administration and during the campaign."

The Square, a Swedish- and English-language comedy, unexpectedly won the biggest award at the 70th Cannes Film Festival, the coveted Palme d'Or. Sofia Coppola was another big winner as she became the second woman in the festival's history to take best director. Coppola won for The Beguiled, a reimagining of a 1971 film based on a novel by Thomas P. Cullinan, about a wounded Union officer in the Civil War who is found by residents of an all-girls boarding school. It stars Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning, and Colin Farrell. The first and only other female director to take the honors as best director at Cannes was the Soviet director Yuliya Solntseva, who won in 1961 for her World War II film The Story of the Flaming Years.

After North Korea launches new ballistic missile, Trump says Pyongyang has 'shown great disrespect' to China
North Korea continued a series of controversial weapons tests on Monday with the launch of at least one short-range ballistic missile. The apparent Scud-class ballistic missile flew about 280 miles before coming down in the Sea in Japan's economic zone, South Korean officials said. The launch came after two successful tests of North Korean mid- and long-range missiles in the last two weeks. President Trump responded on Twitter that "North Korea has shown great disrespect for their neighbor, China, by shooting off yet another ballistic missile ... but China is trying hard!"
North Korea's refusal to curb its missile and nuclear weapons programs in defiance of United Nations resolutions and international sanctions has ratcheted up tensions with the U.S. and other nations. The U.S. on Tuesday plans to conduct its first test of a missile defense system intended to intercept ICBMs. Harold Maass
Germany's Merkel is a 'convinced trans-Atlanticist' just speaking 'honestly' about U.S.-German ties, spokesman says
On Sunday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel sent a shiver through German-U.S. relations when she told a packed beer tent of her fellow Christian Democrats in Munich that from her experience at the G7 and NATO summits, "I can only say that we Europeans must really take our fate into our own hands — of course in friendship with the United States of America, in friendship with Great Britain, and as good neighbors wherever that is possible also with other countries, even with Russia." On Monday, her spokesman, Steffen Seibert, said Merkel was just being honest about differences with the Trump administration.
"The chancellor's words stand on their own — they were clear and comprehensible," Seibert said. Merkel is "a deeply convinced trans-Atlanticist," he told reporters in Berlin, and "those of you who have reported on the chancellor for a long time will know how important German-American relations are to her." Merkel will "continue to work to strengthen" this "firm pillar of our foreign and security policy," he said, but "because trans-Atlantic relations are so important to this chancellor, it is right from her viewpoint to speak out honestly about differences." President Trump and Merkel disagree on climate change and NATO commitments, among other things.
Merkel, who grew up in Soviet-controlled East Germany, has been a longtime support of the U.S. and backer of strong ties with the U.S., so her comments that Germany's ability to rely on the U.S. and Britain is "over to a certain extent" were seen as a blow to the post-World War II order. David Frump explained on Sunday that splitting apart Germany and the U.S. has been a key, long-term goal of the Soviet Union and then Russia under President Vladimir Putin, and argued that Trump just achieved what Russia has been unable to. "Putin could not have achieved out of this trip more exactly what he wanted if he'd been paying for it," he said. Watch below, or read his longer argument at The Atlantic. Peter Weber

On Sunday, Takuma Sato won the 101st Indianapolis 500, beating three-time winner Helio Castroneves by three car lengths in a wild, crash-filled race, with Ed Jones coming in third. Sato, the first Japanese driver to win the Indy 500, is a 40-year-old former Formula One driver who had won just one of his 123 IndyCar races. "Hopefully, the crowd enjoyed it," Sato said "It's beautiful. I dreamed of something like this since I was 12." A number of one-time race leaders were sidelined by seized-up engines and spectacular crashes, the most memorable being Scott Dixon's car being thrown through the air after being by by Jay Howard's car. There was a lot of destruction but no serious injuries in the race. You can watch the Howard-Dixon crash, with ESPN commentary, below. Peter Weber

Do Your Part to Help Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions
- Eco Driving Tips
In Summary: According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, tailpipe emissions from vehicles account for almost a third of the air pollution in the U.S. Although driving a fuel-efficient vehicle can be one way to reduce fuel consumption and emissions, how you drive can be just as important as what you drive. These simple tips below from the Avis Budget Group and Carbonfund.org will help you save money on fuel, and reduce your overall environmental impact.
- Avoid quick starts and aggressive driving: Flooring the gas pedal produces high pollution rates and wastes gas. One second of high-powered driving can produce nearly the same volume of carbon monoxide emissions as a half hour of normal driving, according to the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy.
- Stick to the speed limit: Stick to the speed limit: Driving 65 mph instead of 75 mph will improve your fuel economy by about 10 percent and will decrease tailpipe pollution in many vehicles. A leading consumer magazine found that slowing down from 75 mph to 65 mph resulted in a five-mile-per-gallon performance increase, and slowing down from 75 mph to 55 mph saved 10 miles per gallon.
- Avoid hard breaking: Especially in traffic, try to anticipate stops rather than breaking hard. This will prevent increased pollution, wasted gas and wear on your breaks.
- Always use eToll: Avis/Budget eToll, electronic toll collection, avoids cash payment lines at toll booths. Studies have found that paying tolls electronically reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide emissions by 40-63 percent and reduces emissions by 16 percent. Try to avoid rush hour: Stop-and-go driving burns gas and increases emissions of smog-forming pollutants. Plan your schedule to avoid driving during peak traffic times.
- Always use GPS: Some GPS navigation systems, such as where2® from Avis/Budget, provide real-time traffic alerts which help avoid traffic jams and road construction, and eliminates the extra driving that results when renters get lost. Anything that reduces unnecessary driving time reduces emissions - and saves you money on gas.
- Open your windows before turning on the air conditioner: Removing the hot air before turning on the air conditioning will reduce fuel consumption and nitrogen oxide emissions in some vehicles.
- Don't warm up your car: Newer cars have been designed to operate effectively soon after start-up, even in cold weather.
- Use cruise control: Cruise control will help you maintain a steady, constant speed, which will reduce the need for acceleration and braking. Edmunds.com, a respected resource for automotive information, conducted a study which concluded that using cruise control reduced fuel consumption by seven percent.
- Try not to idle for more than one minute: Idling your engine generates more pollution than driving, and it wastes fuel.

Police hunting two men after the death of a Featherston supermarket worker say there have been no confirmed sightings, but they are continuing to follow up useful information from the public.
Kristofer Jones, 23, and Hayden Ranson, 27, are believed to have fled the greater Wellington region and may be in the central or upper North Island.
Both men were wanted for aggravated burglary in connection with an attack on Glen Jones.
Mr Jones, 40, was the victim of an attack and was found bloodied and unconscious in his Fitzherbert St unit in Featherston soon after 12am on Saturday.
He died in Wellington Hospital about 5am that day.
Wellington district police spokesman Nick Bohm this morning said there had been not yet been any confirmed sightings of Jones and Ranson.
But he said police and the anonymous Crimestoppers line had received a number of useful calls.
"We're still very appreciative of the information that's coming in from the public."
Asked what connections the men had in the North Island, outside of their local area, Mr Bohm said: "We are obviously pursuing lines of inquiry about any associations they may have."
Two women, aged 32 and 22, and a man aged 28 appeared in Masterton District Court yesterday afternoon on related charges and did not enter pleas to a count each of entering a building while armed with intent to commit a crime.
Detective Inspector Sean Hansen yesterday said the two remaining men were believed to be driving a blue 1989 Mitsubishi Mirage, registration OE7854.
"Members of the public are advised not to approach them and should immediately contact police," he said.
Police on Sunday recovered three items which might have been used in the attack from an industrial property in Lower Hutt.

It's ok, maybe I'm just not so into the color (I picked up the Nude), it looks more brown than Nude. It's a lipgloss in a lipstick tube, really nothing amazing about that. The product isn't too sticky, but it doesn't last that long. I would pass on picking up another one.3

I have to disagree with the reader who stated "Jesus said nothing about homosexuality." My belief is that the complete Bible (100 percent) is God's Word, and shows numerous times that Jesus is part of our Triune God.
Using my KJV Bible, there are many passages, both New and Old Testament, that state "gay" actions are against God's law — Lev. 18:22, Lev. 20:13, 2 Tim. 3:13, 1 Cor. 6:9, Rom. 1:26, Rom. 1:32 and Mark 10:6-7.
Yes, God/Jesus/Holy Spirit loves the sinner and damns the sin. After all, God is a "just" God.
Those who pick and choose passages to live their preferred lifestyles are only hurting themselves. Our life on earth is for a short time, but our life after death is an eternity.
Perhaps it's time for more of us to take a stand and not try to change God's Word. Vote "yes" for the marriage amendment and let civil unions join our "gay" friends in their lifestyle.

While much of the region has had good rain, farmers in the west from Ruawai to the Hokianga haven't been so lucky.
The patchy rain last week in Kaipara was low but has allowed the chance to reseed, and in some cases apply urea or lime.
Dargaville farmer Malcolm Welsh whose Baylys Coast Rd farm received around 30mm of rain in the past fortnight remains optimistic.
It was on his farm seven weeks ago, Nathan Guy, the Minister for Primary Industries declared an official Northland drought. The rest of the North Island was to follow soon after.
The Welsh's 330-cow herd has been dried off since Easter, about one month ahead of normal. While the recent rain has greened up the pasture and there is some growth, Mr Welsh says,"another 100mm is needed".
He recently started regrassing with perennial rye and clover. Normally they renew around 24 hectares each year, but as a result of the drought Malcolm has decided he will also oversow (broadcast) up to an additional 30ha to assist grass recovery.
He says other farmers in the district are doing similar, combining undersowing and over-sowing in an attempt to grow more grass before winter.
It's a fine line, judging the time to get the seed germinated and growing and controlling the weeds which may need spraying. Costs from the additional sowing also need to be taken into account when budgeting, especially as it is anticipated additional palm kernel may be needed to to see them through winter.
Urea will be applied to boast growth as soon as possible, but general fertiliser will be held off until the new financial year in June.
The Welsh's winter around 60 per cent of the herd off farm with the balance wintered on the dairy platform. Silage made on the farm along with extra palm kernel should be sufficient for the winter.
Malcolm says the earlier released of deferred payments has helped with cashflow, but he still expects a loss of $100,000 plus. Any uplift in the payout would be beneficial, but it will still be a matter of belt tightening - less repairs, maintenance and personal drawings.
While fire bans have been lifted in Kaipara, bans on hose and sprinklers remain in force.
The NZ Met Service predicts rainfall for the April-June period is likely to be in the normal range for the region, with soil moisture levels below normal as river flows take time to recover.
Temperatures for late autumn are likely to be above average across the North Island.

Frank Nelson tips John Obi Mikel for CAF Player of the Year
Hearts of Oak board member Frank Nelson Nwokolo believes John Mikel Obi deserves to be crowned 2013 African Player of Year.
Obi, who plays for English Premier League side Chelsea, played a key role in Nigeria's success as African champions in South Africa.
"It will boost the Super Eagles team, Mikel and all Nigerians because it has been a long time since we last won the award and I know we deserve to win this yearâ€, he said.
Nwokolo also wants Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi to win the Coach of the Year award and Super Eagles crowned National Team of the Year.
"Nigeria was obviously the best football nation in Africa last year and I won't be surprised if a player from the country emerges the player of the year. They deserve to get the award,†he added.

Cameras have Residents Seeing Red
They were sold as safety tools for drivers. But some residents of Dunnellon are seeing red over red light cameras.
There are four intersections with red light cameras throughout the city.
Some claim the cameras are used as a source of revenue for the city, having netted more than $180,000. Dunnellon Police Traffic Supervisor, Sgt. Jacob Gonzalez stated they are simply safety tool. He said the number of crashes city wide have gone down by 13%. But Gonzalez admitted he had no comparable numbers before the red light cameras were installed.
A study from the University of South Florida found that red light cameras increase the number of rear end crashes.
The issue has many residents of Dunnellon upset. During a recent work shop meeting, about 80 protesters packed the City's Chambers- about 20 others had to wait outside.
Bill Gesick is a founder of Red Light 158, a one-hundred-plus group of upset residents. His main point of contention are citations written for right turns on red. The law doesn't specifically define when it's legal, stating it must be done in a careful and prudent manner.
"It's a subjective, arbitrary means of issuing citations on right turns on red," Gesick said.
The Florida House recently voted to ban red light cameras, but the Senate failed to do the same.

Funny how the hot weather and laying out by a pool can get you so damned horny. Kinda comical watching the guys staring at my boobs while I was at the pool. Even more strange to me is how many women stare at my tits while I'm in a bikini. They're almost more forward than the guys! Course, I guess if some dude was walking around the pool that was hung like John Holmes you guys would probably look as well, LOL. Had a GREAT orgasm in this week's scene, I hadn't climaxed in almost a week, which is about the longest time I can remember going without cumming! (how's that for a play on words..) See ya next week!

All tickets to the Monument for that day were all given out and were told we should come back before 8 am the next day to line up for our tickets. Since we can't get in, we were left to admire its grand scale from the outside. While my husband and I were doing that, my husband saw a man giving out some tickets. Learning from my experience at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, my husband quickly approached the man to find out whether he, in fact, has some tickets to give away. Yes, he was giving out extra tickets to people to take the elevator to the top of the Monument in a moments' notice. (My guess is that the Monument reserves a limited amount of tickets for each time slot in case some VIPs - of course, not like me, show up)
The view on top of the Monument was awesome. When it is so hard to get a good view of the White House these days, it is probably the only place where you can have a glimpse of the White House and the Ellipse in front of it. When we took the elevator down, at times, the park ranger slowed down the speed so that we can look at the plaques mounted on the inside wall of the Monument.
From Washington Monument, we went to WWII Memorial and Lincoln Memorial. Boy, they didn't look very far but sure took us a while to get there. Every structure in DC is massive, just like Vegas, it looks so close but in reality, is quite far. On our way back from Lincoln Memorial, we stopped by the Korean War Veterans Memorial where it honours the 1.5 million Americans who served the war.
The US Holocaust Memorial Museum is a must see, an eye-opener as to how lucky we are, to be able to live without the fear of persecution just because of race, political beliefs, sexual orientation, being physically disabled, etc. We started our tour from the top floor, the photos and exhibits sent chills down my spine. There is a short film showing how Hilter came into power. A section of the train that took the victims to the concentration camp is on display. There are piles of victims' belongings, such as, scissors, spoons, razors, toothbrushes, and most of all, shoes. There is also a scale model that shows how the gas chambers and crematoria worked. Taking kids to this museum is not a good idea and this visit is definitely worthwhile for adults.

SAN BERNARDINO - It was a game in which a young Cajon girls basketball team could have faltered down the stretch against a solid Miller squad and been forgiven.
But instead, the Cowgirls rose to the occasion, rallying in the fourth quarter then holding off Miller for a thrilling 55-53 victory in a key Citrus Belt League contest at Cajon.
"That was a great game. It was a shame either team had to lose," Cajon coach Mark Lehman said. "We just made one more shot than they did."
Miller (16-3 overall, 3-1 Citrus Belt League), ranked sixth in CIF-SS Division 1A, had its chances down the stretch.
Trailing 55-53, Miller had the ball with 20.2 seconds left.
"I don't usually draw up plays, because our girls know what to do," Miller coach Mel Wilkins said. "But I drew up a play. Rachel (McCoy) was supposed to be the decoy, but we tried to throw it to her."
Cajon's Dejaunee Brooks stole the inbounds pass and was fouled. But Brooks missed the front end of a one-and-one with 18.2 seconds left, giving the Rebels another chance.
This time, Tanika Stephenson was called for travelling in the lane with 4.9 seconds left.
Yet, Miller had one final chance as Chase Nacsin missed the front end of a one-and-one with 3.3 seconds remaining.
"I would've liked to have seen us do a better job on those one-and-ones," Lehman said.
Out of timeouts, McCoy's 30-foot shot at the buzzer missed.
It was a turnabout as Cajon (20-0, 4-0) trailed 47-40, its largest deficit in the first minute of the fourth quarter.
But Cajon, No. 1 in Division 2AA, then went on an 11-0 run and never trailed again.
"I had to make some subs, get some starters out. It was because of foul trouble. That really hurt us," Wilkins said.
McCoy led all scorers with 21 points and 18 rebounds for Miller, while LaCrisha Mackall added nine points, eight rebounds and five blocks.
Tyla Turner led Cajon with 18 points, while Brooks had 12 points and 14 rebounds and Kayla Washington had 11 points and 13 rebounds.
Both teams were affected by foul trouble.
Washington picked up her fourth foul less than two minutes into the second half, and Miller's Shantel Roberts and Mackall followed suit before the end of the third quarter. Only Roberts fouled out.
Even though the Cowgirls didn't score in the final 2:50, they made enough plays.
"We talked before the game that they were a team of seniors and we were a team of freshmen," Lehman said. "I wanted to see if we'd have that maturity."

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 23:25:51 -0700 (PDT)
Hello list members
Do you know whether we can find predicted probabilities of Hurdle Poisson and Hurdle negative binomial models by using Stata. There is a suggestion in Long's book but I was wondering whether there is any other way to work-out them. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Thousands gathered to see First Lady speak
GREENVILLE - A crowd of 6,000 people came out Wednesday evening to see Michelle Obama speak at ECU's Minges Coliseum in Greenville.
Marie Perry drove down from Williamston for the big event.
"I can't even imagine. This is a lifetime achievement. I never thought that I'd be able to see the First Lady of the United States. I'm just so excited," Perry said.
People of all ages were in attendance, including children.
"As long as I am here I feel that I am helping out as much as I can," 13-year-old Anthony Maye said.
When you have a crowd this big not everyone can show up at the same time. People towards the front of the line started getting here as early as 9:30 a.m.
"We have shirts we have buttons and we have fired up and ready to go," Rosa Birdie said.
Brodie was one of the first people to arrive Wednesday morning.
"I want [the crowd] to get bigger and it's going to get bigger," she said.
We caught up with Rosa after the speech was over and she was even more fired up than she was beforehand.
"Wasn't it wonderful. She is just so magnetic and she's on the battlefield for her husband," she said.
Deryck Wilson couldn't agree more.
"It was a very good speech. A very good speech. I liked that it wasn't all about politics. It was about moving forward," Wilson said.
Mrs. Obama spoke directly to young voters in her thirty-minute speech to go out and do their part and vote. It was a message that hit college student Millicent Jones hard.
"Oh it was great. Yeah I was really inspired by it. Like I wasn't a person that would get into voting but I actually registered today and I'm going to be voting for Obama," Jones said.
However, not everyone is set on who they're voting for. Jacqueline DeJesus, an ECU student, is one of them.
"I'm just doing some more research and in the end hopefully I'll make the right decision," DeJesus said.
12-year-old Journey Payton was just happy to be there and see Mrs. Obama in person.
"I was very excited because really nobody comes to Greenville so I was like 'Yes! I get to see somebody,'" Payton said.

#AskPlayboy: Jenny Mollen on Cleavage Optimization
Jenny Mollen answers one guys quest to utilize his girlfriend's boobs to their best potential in the sack.
The first fully hardcore porno I ever watched was a copy of a copy a hundred times copied of a jailbait video from the '70s, wherein a girl and her high school boyfriend get naked and get it on while her parents think they're doing homework in her bedroom. They fuck in various positions, but the cumshot happens (predictably) on her chest/face following a vigorous tittyfucking session.
Even as a Fully Grown Adult Male, I have never been able to get that image out of my mind. Neither have I ever had the courage to ask a girl to let me do her boobs. I have so many questions (Do women even like it? Does the novelty make up for the fact that the vagina is an infinitely better-suited place for a penis to go? Who thought of it in the first place?) but what they all amount to is a mental block that has prevented me from ever screw a pair of tits. So, call me naïve, call me a prude, or just call me (maybe) and we can hash it out voice-to-voice, but what I need is a full breakdown of T.F. etiquette: Who, what, when, where and why? What about the finish—does that need to be negotiated or is it a given? Finally, is it necessary to ask first, even if you're already in the sack together anyway? My breathing has just gotten heavy (panic attack, not arousal). Help.
Rule of thumb: If a woman is sleeping with you, her main objective is typically to turn you on unless of course, you are married to her. Then, she's probably less concerned with your experience. But for the most part, women want to feel like they are blowing your mind in the sack. If fucking her tits is going to do that, go right ahead. As a woman, I don't remember ever being super turned on by being the buns to a guy's penis hot dog but I also know it's never felt like a huge demand physically. I'd actually be kind of psyched on a guy whose fetish required zero to no real exertion on my part. So I say, fuck away! As for the finish, cumming on her tits is not only a given, it's most likely preferred! Especially for those "I'd rather eat my calories than drink them" types. Your mental block is the only thing standing between you and your fantasy. Stop thinking with your head and start thinking with your cock.

A report on the operations of the Jemaah Islamiah terrorist group has detailed deep divisions in the organisation and predicted the threat of further Bali-style bombings could be largely neutralised with the capture of a handful of extremists.
The respected International Crisis Group says only a minority within JI supported the 2002 Bali attack and last year's Marriott Hotel bombing in Jakarta and mainstream members of the group remain opposed to violent attacks against Westerners.
In the report released yesterday, the ICG says the arrest of the few leading members of the JI cell behind the two deadly blasts who are still being hunted in Indonesia could bring a significant reduction in the threat to regional security.
"The men who masterminded the major bombings in Indonesia, including the Bali and Marriott attacks, may be a minority faction within the organisation. Hambali, Mukhlas and his brothers, Zulkarnaen, Imam Samudra, Dul Matin, Azahari and others were influenced by al-Qaeda fatwas and were determined to attack Western targets.
"If the remaining top leaders in this faction can be captured, the immediate threat of another Bali or Marriott-style attack may substantially ease."
But the ICG, which is headed by former Australian foreign minister Gareth Evans, says JI's so-called Mantiqi I cell remains a danger while bombmaker Azahari Husin and new operations chief Zulkarnaen continue to evade a national manhunt in Indonesia.
The report's publication comes as ministers and senior officials from 23 countries are gathering in Bali for a two-day summit aimed at strengthening regional co-operation in the fight against terrorism. The summit, hosted by Indonesia and Australia, is also being attended by US Attorney-General John Ashcroft.
Foreign Minister Alexander Downer said yesterday that despite the rapid growth in intelligence sharing and other co-operation between regional law enforcement agencies, more needed to be done.
"It's not as though people in the region aren't are, we know that from what the Indonesians have been doing post the Bali bombing. But we do need to make sure that the efforts... are co-ordinated," he said.
Mr Downer said he hoped agreement would be reached on establishing a counter-terrorism centre in Jakarta and putting in place a long-term process for co-ordinating the anti-terrorist work of different nations.
The ICG report said the Bali bombers were part of a radical fringe cell within JI whose taking action against terrorism - they clearly determination to kill Westerners was not supported by the movement's majority.
"Equating JI with the Bali bombers is probably wrong," the report said. "All its members are radical jihadists, but not all view attacks on Western targets as an appropriate strategy."

It's the first program of its kind in the nation. Crime Stoppers will hand out cash rewards for tips that lead to people who are getting public assistance illegally. The partnership between Crime Stoppers, the Harris County District Attorney's office and several government assistance agencies is meant to crack down on widespread welfare fraud in Harris County. District Attorney Pat Lykos says it's about more than just the actual fraud.
"It's not just the theft and the deprivation of the people who are truly in need and the cheating of the taxpayers, it's where this money goes and how it goes into organized criminal activity. And so you have this anti-social behavior that's being financed with our tax dollars."
The fraud usually involves illegal housing, social security, food stamp and Medicaid benefits. Robert Feldt leads local investigations into social security fraud.
"Disability is an area where there's a great deal of fraud in which individuals become eligible for disability benefits and then will conceal information from the Social Security Administration. At a later date they may go back to work and conceal that information from social security by working under another social security number or under the table. So that's an area where there's a great deal of fraud that we spend most of our resources working."
Local officials estimate millions of dollars in fraudulent welfare benefits is being handed out in Harris County. That Crime Stoppers number is 713-222-TIPS.
