Josh Gordon In Trouble Again, Pulled Over For Speeding With Weed In The Car
Cleavland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon cant find his way out of trouble these days.
Gordon may be facing a season long suspension from the NFL for failing multiple drug tests, so you would think he would try and stay away from weed for a while. Instead he puts himself in another bad situation.
Gordon got pulled over last week for doing 74 in a 60 mph zone. The problem here is the passenger in the car had weed on him. Luckily the passenger had less than 200 mg on him so only a citation was written.
This might be a minor infraction but it does not help Gordon's chances of not getting suspended. Some people need to be burned before they learn a lesson.

Mentorship Helps Close The Management Gender Gap
Many successful executives will credit a mentor; an adviser, a teacher, someone who kept them engaged while they advanced their careers. Maybe even someone who opened doors as they learned the ropes. This is especially true for women. Today, forward-thinking companies realize that mentorship helps close the management gender gap. The most successful way for a company which is committed to diversity, to be sure that women receive the benefits of mentorship is to make formal programs available.
In the immortal words of Joseph Heller, it's a Catch 22. Women need mentorship, yet it isn't easy for them to secure a mentor informally. Informal mentorship happens much more naturally with men. Perhaps it is because male executives (who still far outnumber women) see a younger version of themselves (an extension of self) in the new hire who is then nurtured, groomed and taken along to golf or attend a sporting event with the big clients.
Typically, looking in from the outside, women approach the limited number of senior, more experienced women in their organization and ask, "Will you mentor me?" As Sheryl Sandberg points out in her book, Lean In, this is unlikely to garner the intended result, in part, due to the scale of the request. Instead, she suggests asking for business advice on a specific problem and to allow the relationship to evolve naturally.
I always recommend that women approach finding a mentor like dating. You wouldn't walk up to someone and ask them to be your boyfriend without spending time with them first to see if there was chemistry. Mentorship is the same. Offer to take a prospective mentor for coffee. Glean as much information as possible to determine if you are a good fit and could meet again.
The ideal scenario is for women to have more than one mentor. They can achieve this by employing their own individual initiative to find a mentor and joining a company that makes a formal mentoring program available to them. These formal programs can be internal, or the company can support them externally. What is important is that they are made available, and remember quality counts.
Those who have well-matched and connected mentors can expect to enjoy more promotions because they help women to raise their visibility and showcase their skills. Research shows that (by a ratio of almost three to two) women who find mentors through formal programs receive more promotions than those who attain mentors on their own.
Until the day that the number of women executives more closely equals the number of men, we can't assume that women, like men, will readily find mentors informally. Committed to helping more women reach the decision-making table I founded the Womentorship Program at the Edwards School of Business, University of Saskatchewan. Each year we match junior women protégés with more experienced Womentors for one-on-one sessions, professional development and networking events.
Supported by Areva Resources Canada from the beginning, it gives me great satisfaction to see women graduate from our program walking taller and with more confidence. Unfortunately, not all companies are so forward thinking and many of the women in our program must pay their own tuition because of the lack of support from their employers. Some are even forced to use vacation time to attend our sessions.
Corporations often have a budget for women's leadership training, yet these companies are ignoring the one element that would provide substantial returns. Research shows that when mentoring is coupled with training, women are more apt to stay and advance in the workforce.
Another significant result was cited by Iris Bohnet in her book Gender Equality by Design. Noticing that women were less likely to be promoted to tenure in economics than in other fields, the Committee on the Status of Women in the Economics Profession started a mentoring program and coupled it with training. The results were monitored and it was found that those who participated in the program put out more publications and received more approvals for their grant applications than those who didn't.
In corporate cultures where the mentoring of women is encouraged we also see a reduction of unconscious bias or prejudice which held in our subconscious and unbeknownst to us, shapes our decisions each day. After mentoring I've personally observed men who initially had difficulty concealing their biased belief that working mothers were unsuited for management, later become their largest supporters. Suddenly, through a combination of the sharing of their own knowledge and the increased contact, the value of their female protégé became clearer.
As Dobbin and Kalev state in the Harvard Business Review article "Why Diversity Programs Fail," mentorship reduces unconscious bias as managers believe that "anyone that I sponsor must be deserving." The article cites the fact that after five years of using a mentoring program 80 per cent of mentees at Coca-Cola had climbed at least one rung up the proverbial ladder. This increased the company's diversity in management and it now boasts a woman CFO, Kathy Waller.
Mentorship is not designed to rescue women and is certainly not meant as a substitute for them creating their own careers. Ultimately, we all have to take responsibility for our own success. However, besides helping to stem the leaky pipeline of women available to join the ranks of executives, mentorship increases the effectiveness of women's leadership training and reduces the unconscious bias that limits their opportunities.
The bottom line is that in comparison to men who dominate the identity group of management in the corporate world, women as members of a minority are at a disadvantage. A mentor plays many important developmental roles including those of motivator, coach, champion and consultant to offset this disadvantage. Women's leadership training combined with a formal mentorship program can help close the gender gap and reduce unconscious bias, ensuring that both women and companies are the beneficiaries.

Virgin birth not just a by-product of captivity
By Susan Milius, 11:13 AM September 12, 2012
Snakes in the wild sometimes forgo the mom-and-dad method of reproducing and have babies without having sex, researchers have confirmed with genetic testing.
Occasional no-sex reproduction has been seen in captivity among snakes, Komodo dragons and sharks. But until now there has been no conclusive evidence for wild virgin birth among species that normally reproduce sexually, says Warren Booth of the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma. (In about 80 kinds of vertebrates, a single sex carries o...

Cybersecurity: 6 Must-Haves to Keep Your Clients Protected
Malware, Trojans, botnets, APTs, viruses, phishing, watering holes, point of sale (PoS) attacks, ransomware, spam, malvertising, creepware, lifejacking, stolen data. Cyberspace is a scary place, and no one is immune to the danger of cyber threats.
Key findings from Symantec's 2014 Internet Security Report don't paint a pretty picture. Here are a just a few of the highlights:
- 91% increase in targeted attack campaigns in 2013
- 62% increase in the number of breaches in 2013
- 1 in 392 emails contain a phishing attack
- Web-based attacks are up 23%
- 1 in 8 legitimate websites have a critical vulnerability
Making sure your clients don't fall victim to cyber threats requires much more a single tool. You'll need to employ a wide range of solutions to keep your managed endpoints safe.
Antivirus and Anti-malware
McAfee catalogs more than 100,000 new malware samples every day, which translates to about one new threat every second. This startling statistic only reinforces the need for integrated, real-time protection against zero-day attacks.
Email Security
A well-designed hosted email security service can block unwanted email before it reaches a corporate network. The service should also audit outbound mail to help protect your clients' brand and avoid email disruptions.
Mobile Device Management (MDM)
Monitoring and managing mobile devices can help protect devices and the data they hold with location tracking, selective wiping and built-in reporting.
Keeping systems up-to-date with current patches is the key to keeping vulnerabilities at bay. Your patching policy should cover both Microsoft updates and third-party applications.
One View For All
Developing a unified view of all endpoints, including mobile devices, is key. The easiest and most efficient way to do this is with a single underlying framework.
Security Awareness Training
While technology tools can help with IT security, education plays a major role as well. Consider providing education and training to your clients to help mitigate human error. According to the Ponemon Institute, employees are the root cause of many data breaches, with over 78% of IT security practitioners reporting negligent or malicious employees, or other insiders, were responsible for at least one data breach within their organizations over a two-year period.
As security threats continue to grow and become more malicious, the risk of security breaches increases as well. Keeping up with the threats and methods of protecting sensitive data places a huge burden on your clients.
By offering IT security solutions, you can ease that burden while expanding your managed services offering. When choosing the right solution, look for a wide breadth of security solutions, so you can give your clients comprehensive, efficient and effective protection and management.

Kyle: BeggingMature
"Kyle. End of street. Now." Danny's voice rang out of the speaker in my cell phone before stopping as he hung up.
Damien had gone home a little earlier and I'd just been lounging around on my own. I jumped off the couch, practically running to the end of the street to meet Danny.
"I'm not going out with you."
"How come?" I asked, a little confused.
"Because. I'm making the choice."
"I am making the choice, Kyle."
I clamped my eyes shut. "No"
I shook my head, trying not to cry. He had to be joking, right?
"Kyle, don't. If you liked me this much you wouldn't have to choose. I'm doing this for you."
"But I love you"
"No you don't! Kyle, love is when you would do anything for that person, when you'd leave them to stop them from doing something stupid. This 'arrangement' will only hurt everyone."
"Then how come you leaving hurts so much?"
"Because you're being stupid."
I bit m lip.
"Kyle? You want Damien."
"Danny, I'll do anything"
"Really? By subjecting me to this painful... crap! By making me feel lower than Damien?"
"I'll do whatever you want, Danny"
"No you won't! You don't get it!" he growled.
"I'll beg. I'll be your slave for the day. I'll sleep with you. Please, Danny"
"I don't want you to beg, or be my slave or..." I paused, "I just want you to ay you love me and mean it! Christ, that's not too hard to ask!"
"I do mean it"
"Then what's all this with Damien? What's all this 'I can't choose,' shit?"
"Because I can't deal with you breaking my heart again" I sniffled.
"Yeah? So in order for that not to happen you're gonna break mine?"
"Danny, I love you"
"No, you don't," he murmured.
"I do"
"Then stop saying it and actually do something! You can't just say you love me and expect me to believe it fool!" he whined, trying not to cry himself as I broke down before him.
I dropped to my knees. "Danny, please. I swear, I love you with all my heart. And I'll do whatever you fucking want me to to prove it"
"Fine, Kyle, get up! You're making a fool of yourself."
I got up, sniffling and he sighed.
"Kyle. How come you only liked Damien after I came into your life? Were you trying to punish me?"
"He was there when I needed someone"
"Okay," he nodded, "where do I come in?"
"You're the one I love"
He nodded, then looked at me, "I still think your eyes are beautiful..."
I smiled and he sighed. He took a deep breath before grabbing my arm and pulling me closer to him, his arms intertwining behind my back.
"And you're always so warm..." he murmured, "You know, I missed you too. So much, I've never been able to get your image from my head."
I huggled him, breathing in his scent. I'd missed him so fucking much.
"Come on, wanna go back to mine?" he asked.
He held me at arm's length for a moment before kissing my cheek softly. "C'mon then."
I put my arm round his shoulder, leaning on him a little. I couldn't help but feel a little bad about what this was going to put Damien through.

It took every ounce of my control not to turn around and go punch that Benjeman in the face. Hundreds of possibilities ran through my mind of what I could do. It didn't matter to me how big or bad he was. Everyone seemed afraid of him but that didn't deter me either. I was muttering muderous things quickly and quietly.
I was so distracted that I barely noticed the others conversation. I didn't notice Crystal and Damien's arrival or Crystal taking Midnight's blood. I slipped away because I needed to calm down so badly. I didn't like feeling so... furious. That's not how Pixies work and whenever I lost my temper... I shudder not wanting to think about it.
I walked outside and headed for a lone tree. I easily hoisted myself up into the branches and hid in the leaves trying to calm down. It began to rain. This was good. It was like Nature was trying to help me to relax.
I could tell from Midnight's face, when I was muttering, that she thought I couldn't defeat Benjeman. She had no idea what I was capable of when I lost it. I tended not to use all my powers, in fact I pretended I didn't have them, but if using them was what it took to help her then I would - even if it was against Mr. Powerful Benjeman, although I'd wager it was an even match.
As if called by my thoughts, Benjeman appeared out of nowhere. I suppressed a hiss and the urge to drop from the tree and attack him. By hurting someone as kind, caring and gentle as Midnight he would've just made me annoyed and want to just slap him, leaving it at that, but 'cause Maz was her Guardian then hurting her hurt him which made me twice as mad and want to... not quite kill him but nearly.
I glared at him before shutting my eyes and taking a deep breath. I dropped from the tree and began to stalk away.
"Zuri Brook, isn't it?" I heard him call. I froze. I'd forgotten to put up my invisibility in my haste to get away. I spun to face him.
"Just Zuri," I called back coolly. Don't push me, I begged silently, Please don't push me.
"Little Rainbow, right?" he smiled and I glared back.
"How do you know that?" I snapped. He shrugged so I tried a different one, "What do you want?"
"Just curious," he answered, "Zuri the Little Rainbow. Daughter of a Pixie Council member and Ice's little sis-" I cut him off as I snarled. He was pushing me to the edge. I took in another deep breath and began to back away slowly.
"Don't. Mention. That. Name. In. Front. Of. Me. Ever. Again." I all but growled at him, "And she wasn't my sister. She wasn't related to me in any way." Maz, I need you! I need you to give me the strength to leave! I knew it was useless, he'd be focused on Midnight now and I doubted he'd let her out of his sight for a while.
Nature, let anyone help me. Let anyone come and stop me because I'm gonna snap any second and then I'll be hip deep in alligators.
Anyone come stop me.

Deathly Secrets, Chapter XXXVII
Alina tried her best not to read too much into Conner's words. If she did, what she read was scary. Just a few days ago, she'd been as single as single could be, as far as relationships went. Now, she'd somehow acquired two admirers - and neither of them were generally the type of men Alina considered!
So, of course, Alina shoved any nagging thoughts aside. Perhaps Conner didn't even think of her in a romantic way. Perhaps she was just overreacting!
But something in Alina's heart - and Conner's face - told Alina that she was far from overreacting.
Ah, how dare Conner and Alexander tramp into Alina's life like this! They should have asked permission! They should have given warning! They should have chosen someone their own size to pick on! Life was complicated enough without men! The male population should just go collectively jump in a lake, Alina silently fumed to herself.
The thought was improbable, of course, but it was how she felt. And anyways, it provided a satisfying mind picture.
Conner clearly sensed the change in Alina, for he grew quiet all of a sudden. Alina felt bad. It wasn't his fault they were in this mess. Embarrassed of the words she's spoken earlier in a fit of rage, she said quietly, "I'm normally not this touchy. There's just something about this criminal that makes my patience run awry."
"It's alright," Conner replied. "I understand."
Alina hesitated. "Well...I ought to get going," she finally said. She shoved her hands into the pockets she'd sewn into her dress.
"Alright. I'll see you around, I guess." Conner's words were quiet.
"Yeah," Alina said softly. "I'll see you around." Her heartbeat slowed a bit, and she nodded goodbye to Conner. Their silence spoke the words neither of them said.
And then, she left, even more confused than she'd been when she'd walked into the inn.

PORT LOUIS: Mauritius said on Monday it expected the number of tourists visiting the Indian Ocean island to rise 3.6 percent in 2013, helped by arrivals from markets like China and India.
Statistics Mauritius said in a statement that based on arrivals data and information from the industry it is expecting arrivals for 2012 to grow slightly to 965,000 in 2012 from 964,642 in 2011.
"The forecasted number of tourist for 2013 is around 1,000,000 representing an increase of 3.6 percent," it said.
Mauritius is diversifying into emerging markets like China and India to cushion itself from a slowdown in its main market, Europe.
The Indian Ocean island's tourism revenue for the year is forecast at around 43.5 billion rupees ($1.41 billion), up 1.8 percent on the 42.7 billion generated in 2011.
According to the Bank of Mauritius, tourism receipts for 2013 should be about 47 billion rupees, an increase of 8 percent over 2012.
Statistics Mauritius said tourist arrivals were up 0.2 percent at 675,584 in the nine months to September compared with the same period last year. It said the average room occupancy rate for all hotels for the first nine months was 60 percent against 63 percent a year ago.
At the end of September 2012, there were 105 registered hotels in operation, with a total room capacity of 11,715 and 23,899 bedplaces.

On Love in Previous Chapters
Oh, Kevin.... Oh, Mist.
Your lyrical odes to love and its churning wake are so arthritically old. Out of your starry-eyed youth springs such poetry and desperate angst.
Gather now around the time-worn oracle. Sit yourselves down as Old Unka Tip explains that four-letter word to you.
Love isn't thunder and earthquakes and tuneful lyrics any more than heartbeats are blips on a hospital monitor. Love isn't fragrance and colours and spring rain any more than cyclones are red highlights on a meteorologists's weather map.
Rather, love is a simple headache: a low steady beat on the drums of your conscience. Love is a vise: a cold and metallic grip on your soul.
The Beatles were as wrong in their lyrics as they were right in their music. Paul and John, after all, were of your age when they chanted on and on about a crimson and soaring love.
Greyer and wiser, however, divorces, affairs, paternity suits, and settlements later, their wiser selves would have scripted lyrics intoning a different love...a true love; the love we really crave.
Love, you see, is an easy concept in the bedroom. But it is infinitely more difficult in the bathroom.
Love is a spitting flame on a Friday night, but a smouldering ember over the course of a year.
To young lovers, it's an Olympic sprint: an explosion of muscle and adrenaline. To wise lovers, it's a marathon: a meandering route of easy strides and stamina.
If you listen carefully, you will even hear such accidental wisdom in the Beatles' youthful salute. After the hopeful repetitive chorus of 'Love is all you need', the music builds up and mounts to a crescendo.
It does not fade out.

And it has been an evolving thing. As time is considered [by those who continually post and comment about how long they have been doing this stuff], mine, to me, is fairly short.
I lost my first SL account due to LL goofiness, unimportant enough that I rarely even mention it…she was not all that old anyways and really a noob in so many ways to how I do things nowadays.
Suffice to say, I guess I found SL around 4 years ago, or so…and it was my first VR grid. To young people 4 years is a long time, to me it is barely a blip…lol
Over 2013 I started participating more and more in the free opensim aspects…and over the year I decided this is what I feel is good for me to focus on.
I like hypergating around, or, at least, having that option…closed grids feel claustrophobic to me now, and boring, and the two I still participate in, of much regard, is really very little.
So over the year I have evolved into more participation in the internet aspects of the socializing of OS stuff because this is the best way to keep in touch with most people who are spread out far and wide in the Meta.
I have also had to cut back considerably due to personal reasons over this year. From starting it and being gung-ho and joining all sorts of things, to now just participating in a couple of forums and to actually going inworld less and less.
Where this will go for me in 2014, only time will tell.
2012 was more, seeing it retrospectively, an eye-opening time…
2013 has been more of a finding my own comfortable niche and following things more as an observer and less and less a participant.
I have also been keen to make sure any certain grid I participate in has certain values I like.
Transparency, a rare thing in this current iteration of VR, has become the top thing I look for before doing any real type of participation…above anything else by far. I just do not like how so many spread dis and mis-information, so much, in order to promote whatever little thing they think is important at the moment. Give me a reasoned argument/discussion in favor of whatever your interests are, talk openly about it, keep the bullshit out of it, and I get more interested.
I got into all this just to escape rl issues, became much more involved than I should have in the commercial aspects since it made it less escapism and more reality, and now have gone back to my root reasons. I never thought of the net as but a tool for marketing [web design] and escape anyways...so I see my foray into the commercial grids as an aberration of who I truly am. Which is cool. It is also all I knew about for some time too...another evolve.
I have always been of the thinking that people evolve [no, not all, but even those who do not understand, do, in some regards, over time]…for example, people in their 20s or so still will mention their high school days in several regards…people in their 40s or so will talk about marriage[s], work, children and such.
So 2013 was, for me, quite a bit of evolving concerning my VR life, what I want to do in it, how I want to do it, and how much I will involve myself in it.
So, I tried a few things, then stepped back from them as I saw they did not fit into what feels right for me, and for several reasons.
I got involved with g+ and joined and helped promote the Opensim Virtual Community formed by Talla. I like the concept and the stated goals. However, I also found it generated to many emails for me, and it made my mornings very difficult to manage…so I left, gave it a break to reconsider, then recently rejoined in the hopes I can now more manage my part in it.
I created a Virtual Worlds Stats community, then my thinking evolved concerning statistics from individual grid thinking to overall Metaverse trending…I quit that also.
I formed my little Metaverse Goofballs group and I like it, and so do some others who have joined…but it is not anything I focus on...it simply seemed a fun idea I had at the time.
I added everyone that came before my eyes to my g+ circles, then started a slow but sure campaign to reduce that to something more manageable. I had thought at first it would be fun to have a big circle, but now do not…and now I have evolved into mostly just posting various odds and ends to my public feed for the most part, occasionally commenting to two circles in various regards…all of which has reduced my g+ emails to less than a dozen a day in the morning and another couple of dozen during the course of the day, which seems right, right now.
I added the Metropolis forums as something I participate in, more due to seeing it would not add too much to my email workload and wanting to at least be more involved in my home grid that I really have come to like, a lot.
Metropolis showed me that my VR life can be stress-free and enjoyable, and I appreciate this ethos quite a lot…and am very thankful…so I do what I can to help, in my less and less way, to promote them.
I joined the sl universe forums after watching them for a couple of weeks, mainly just to promote my terraforming business, then adding in posting other cool Meta things I knew about. It devolved into commenting in threads that were really not my raison d'être…simply due to that coming before my eyes, and having a compulsion in me to respond to bullshit. So I left that after what I call a 6 month test. I never sold any terrains from that direction, and going along with one of my 2013 evolving nature things, if a place does not at least generate some sales, and other things being the same [as in, nothing else interests me enough to take the good with the bad] I left. I actually did not think I would sell any terrains there as it is primarily, of course, SL ppl…and SL is dying, slowly but surely…I cannot sell terrains when regions are stagnant or going away, obviously, but I considered due to their large user base I might garner some sales by people who are also in the greater Meta…I didn't, no big deal, I moved on.
At the start of the year I was still in an "add grids" mode, also. I wanted to at least have my avie name reserved, and to put up an office if I could for free. But over the year I decided that was not worth the efforts either, so I stopped doing that and stopped going into most closed grids at all.
I just realized that of the handful of closed commercial grids around still, they are stagnating, and some even reversing any growth they had, to warrant any attempt to try and get sales. And otherwise they are quite boring, really.
Of the ones I used to go to, only 3rd Rock grid is left, and even there I hardly go and participate very little...basically I go when I see an entertainer I like performing there. I also have a free shop/office which I keep and upgrade but which is not really my focus anymore and as long as I get no hassles I will keep it, for now, anyways.
This is not to say that grids do not have some interesting things going on, but I just found, [primarily due to my personal need to decrease my activity], that one or two interesting things does not balance out to putting up with the issues in them.
For my limited time, I can find all the coolness I need in the open Meta, and more easily, and use my regular avie to hypergate to them.
I started participating more in the Kitely forums…basically as a kind of test to see how my type of commenting was taken by the owners…and over the year, and so far, they have shown me such transparent type thinking, I am still impressed…and so I still participate there. I also like the Kitely business model, and if any commercial grid aspects of OS are to make it, such as Kitely is doing, this will be it.
I also fully expect to see, and already am seeing some things, that others will copy various aspects of what Kitely is doing, and either do them some other specific ways or promote it as "their" idea.
I am also seeing more and more little stupid reasons those who are invested in other commercial grids are pointing to why their grid is better than Kitely [or ANY other grid, but of course they already were doing that]. I recently noted david/tranquility, one of the owners of the inwz grid saying they are "always on" lol...which seems such a sad thing to say for several reasons.
Already, my hosting company for my Metropolis regions Zetamex, is embracing some aspects of cloud services. I also noted a comment in the inwz forums about a new project they are working on involving cloud aspects; I think it had to do with asset storage.
This seems to bear out my little theory on copycatting new tech and such cool things. Nothing really wrong with this as this is how things go, usually.
Personally I would like to see something entirely new, such as Kitely is doing in several regards, from these grids…I think the sl clone mentality, and all the issues that come with that, is going away…if grids cannot find new ways to do things that are different, the writing is on the wall in my eyes. This may take some few more years to finalize, but surely some people are already seeing such glimmers of change.
Over the year much has improved with core OS dev.
Mega-regions are becoming more and more a standard, teleporting has become much easier in several regards, and several functions unique to OS have become much easier to use, especially relating to hypergrid traveling.
Varregions are being tested now as the next shiny, and the bullet physics is due out as the default very soon [and is the default for more and more already…and being tested by quite a growing crowd of people too]. See http://opensimulator.org/wiki/0.7.6_Release
I started some new blog pages too. I have my "Metaverse Destinations", My Kitely one, and my Metropolis one…all of which I update fairly regularly.
I also decided to start doing Metaverse HG related articles on Hyperica. The three so far have been "freebies" centric, but for my January article I plan on some nice meditation type places.
I have also lost touch with quite a few people I knew in 2012/13, but in return gained many new ones...on balance, for the better, certainly more in line with my current thinking on things, for the most part.
I still am friends with some I would like to mention specifically.
Savino has become such a mainstay in my virtual life that I would consider the game much less fun if he left. I met Savi in the Kitely grid originally, late in 2012, and I find him very nice and also silly, so he helps me to laugh.
Sunbeam Magic, whom I knew from my inworldz grid days, is also still around. She has also recently rented 4 regions in the Metropolis Grid from Zetamex, so I like this. She is the one person I can talk to about many things related to all this.
Both are trusted people to me.
So, all things considered, 2013 has been a year of change for me, and change for OS in which I play, and changes in my personal life...in many ways.

Provisional Legislator David Chu Yu-lin, who is running for one of the 10 seats on the Election Committee, is flying high.
The Hong Kong Progressive Alliance contender has included his logo fei chu (flying pig) in his election pamphlet.
The word 'pig' is a homophone of 'chu' in Cantonese.
The logo features a pink pig with white wings travelling across a blue sky.
And underneath the flying pig a small aeroplane is depicted.
As an active sportsman, Mr Chu's favourite pursuits included parachuting and gliding.
Last year, he paraglided from Hong Kong to the Great Wall of China to celebrate the first National Day after the handover.
A common mistake by many people, politicians included, is to criticise others without realising one has committed the same mistake.
Louis Leung Wing-on, a non-affiliated Hong Kong Island candidate, hit out at his rival, Citizens Party chairwoman Christine Loh Kung-wai, accusing her of not including her achievements in election pamphlets.
As a result, he could only conclude that Ms Loh had made no contributions.
However, a quick perusal of Mr Leung's own leaflet may leave the reader struggling to discover any detailed listings of his own endeavours.

All India institute of Medical Sciences, Delhi, India
PURPOSE: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs commonly in obese individuals and it has been linked to increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Studies on the association of subclinical inflammation and severity of OSA have shown conflicting results. However, there is no data in Asian Indians in this regard. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an important marker of inflammation and has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the relationship between serum levels of CRP and OSA in obese Asian Indian subjects.
METHODS: In this ongoing study, the data on 40 obese subjects (BMI > 25 kg/m2) has been analyzed. All the subjects underwent polysomnography and the data on 20 obese subjects with newly diagnosed OSA and 20 obese controls matched for age and body mass index without OSA has been analyzed. We analyzed high-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) levels in all the subjects.
RESULTS: Serum CRP levels were significantly higher in obese patients with OSA than in obese not having OSA (Mean 6.22 mg/dl versus 3.55 mg/dl, P<0.01). This conducted study was univariate as BMI was comparable in cases and controls (Mean 29.7 Kg/m2 versus 31.9 Kg/m2, P>0.1). Both groups were clearly demarcated by apnea hypopnea index (AHI). Mean AHI in cases was 51.6/hr and in controls was 2.41/hr (P<0.001).
CONCLUSION: OSA is associated with elevated levels of CRP, a marker of inflammation and of cardiovascular risk. CRP level was not significantly higher in obese cases, not having OSA but was significantly higher in obese subjects having OSA suggesting that high level of CRP might be independently associated with OSA. This is the first study showing association of C-reactive protein level in obese Asian Indians having OSA.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: This conducted study shows that CRP can be considered as a diagnostic and therapeutic marker for OSA. However, to validate these findings, mentioned study shall be conducted on a larger population size.

I am TOTALLY confused as to whether I should go with LAVA Plus or E-MAX veneers? Please opinions! (photos)
Doctor Answers 3
Lava Or EMax Veneers?
Anterior Veneers, LAVA Plus or E-Max.
Lava or emax #Veneers? #DrSoftTouch
Replacing composite bonding with veneers is an excellent decision. I have placed thousands of restorations and can tell you that I use Empress and Emax for my patients. Lava Plus, a translucent zirconia, is being recommend by the lab due to its strength, but Emax is very strong as well and provides the best esthetic results. I hope this helps.

He walked through the doors with such a grace, it blew my heart away. His angelic face was beautiful and pale. He had mesmerizing blue eyes, long lashes, and a smile that broke my heart just to look at it.
His body was a boxers dream. It wasn't overly muscular, but incredibly brilliant and perfect, like it was carved from stone in the heavens.
His black hair was tousled and brilliant. Everything about him was beautiful, angelic and hot all in one. He was definitely the best looking man I'd ever seen.
He wore a plain white tank top with an unbuttoned shirt over it, rolled up to the crease in his beautiful, pale elbow.
He looked at me, curious. I smiled and looked down in embarrassment. He rolled his eyes, and moved over to me.
"Hey," he said. His voice a perfect, deep voice like velvet. It warmed my heart.
I smiled timidly,
"Um, hi" I said. He laughed quietly to himself, and then held out his hand.
"My name's Blake, Blake Johnson." I took his strong hand and shook it. His skin was smooth and soft. I wanted to stay there and feel it all day. But I couldn't,
"Faith Hope" I introduced myself absently. Most of my mind was on his face.
He cracked a smile, and I nearly cried with joy,
"That's a nice name. Unusual." He said conversationally. I smiled, more confident now.
"I never really liked it." I admitted,
"No, it's beautiful. You're beautiful." I frowned. Did he just call me beautiful? We'd just met! But I couldn't care less.
"Me? I am beautiful? Do you have a mirror at home?" I blurted out without thinking. He chuckled,
"This," he waved his hand over his beautiful face, "is a curse to me." He exclaimed.
I was getting uncomfortable. This was moving way too fast. Even I knew that, and I'd never had a boyfriend.
"I, um, I have to go." I said. His face turned apologetic,
"Oh, sorry! Don't go!" He pleaded.
"N-no, sorry, I have to." I said. I looked around the room. It was full to the brim with people, but no-one seemed to notice us. I walked out, leaving Blake's surprised sad face behind me.

Bill- sounds like the simpler solution for FSG would be to do it as optional module.
Janina- I've learned that the way they usually do things is to be a candidate for one rev, then a optional module for the next rev. and then full status in the following rev.
Olaf- all the work to do the standardize has been done, did not want to discourage use. LSB does not standardize for anything that is not in all major distribution. All accessible by AT/SPI, that means that KDE3 can not comply with that. The platform is not necessary accessible with AT/SPI but if you
Bill- in what way is that a down grade? That sounds like current status.
Bill- we have never made any requirement on application conformance. I am not aware of dependencies that AT/SPI has. Only application that speak AT/SPI or load the bridge will be visible.
Olaf- if we have it as an additional module, it could make it tougher on conformance. If we make it mandatory and we have not yet standardize, would that be
Bill- realistically , we can't have a D-bus version for some time. Even if we had significant resources to put on it, it would take well over a year.
Janina- is anyone working on it.?
Olaf - even if it takes three years, we would have a standard. You could test against it. Distributions would like to ship the then available D-Bus version. If they want to re-certify, they have to ship the CORBA based version too. If KDE is part but optional. It may take a while, at some point D-Bus , all distributions that
Janina- is it really on the table to put it into 3.2? It sounded like they were skeptical if we are eventually going to D-Bus
Bill- what is the time table for LSB 3.3?
Janina- if you go to LSB's roadmap page, they are talking about 4.0 coming out in 2009. They are thinking of major distributions of Linux.
Bill- so we have 18 - 24 months. In answer to Olaf's question, distro's shipping D-Bus version, that would be a 4.0 version. For 3.2 the ABI requirements for AT/SPI would not be onerous. Because of the binary requirement, we get carried over to 4.0
Bill- I propose we put the optional version aside for now and see if we can put the current version into 3.2 and look at D-Bus for the 4.0
Janina- if I understand what they said last week, they seemed to be saying no way.
Bill- this has been our intention for two years so I don't think we should back down. Ian was negative but I don't think Jeff was nearly as negative.
Janina- may be it is their different roles,
Bill- we need to make it clear what we are asking. Putting aside the logistics of whether it can be done, would it be reasonable to have a conformant D-Bus solution. The time to do the development
Olaf- I think LSB 4 is not supposed to be binary compatible with LSB 3. If it is a different point in time problem for clean migration.
Bill- if D-Bus were shipped, it still could be compliant, carry the old libraries until LSB 4.0.
Janina- are any distro's on the call today?
Bill- the issue worrying Ian might not apply to us.
Olaf- if there is no defined time frame for LSB 4, people would rather do LSB 3.4 and 3.5. Another thing, generally API interfaces in the LSB must be around, that is a different suggestion. People are having different opinions about what the binary requirements. Would have a module for AT/SPI, distributions that ship qt4 are required to have it. All distributions that include CORBA AT/SPI would have to conform. In addition to having ABI present, might make
Janina- I found the url for the LSB road map and will email it. May 2007
Bill- any other comments? Do we want to ask them some other questions?
Janina- this is the time to development. We need to show up at the Berlin meeting Dec. 2-5 We could meet there people there for discussion.
Olaf- I could go but I need at home for the evening of Dec. 4. But I'm having a different opinion so it may be better for someone else to go.
Janina- our first step is to have questions. Given the small amount of lead time to the meeting, There needs to be a discussion and enough of them. We got a lot done in a week in Honolulu.
Olaf- I can be there, just need to know if it is the 4 or 5. Maybe I could ask them to move accessibility to Tuesday so I could be sure to be there.
Janina- most important is to put the questions in writing to forward to Ian and Jeff.
Bill- I could be there those days but I don't think I could get any funding to travel.
Janina- George also thought it would be hard to get funding.
Bill- if we can achieve this as a module in 3.2 without a face to face meeting, maybe that is a tradeoff we can make. If everyone thinks it is a good idea, we should go for it. We have existing technology, You cannot standardize on something that does not exist. That is a challenge to bring on another means of conforming. Multiple paths, makes our real and gives a powerful motivation for the people who want an alternative to make it happen. Without this motivation -may take 3 years.
Janina- from a marketing stand point the time is now.
Bill- if we wait
Janina- from a real , the estimate of time to make the D-Bus version is a guess.
Gary- what is the basic motivation for having AT/SPI in LSB, is it to attract commercial AT or are we trying to legitimize the Linux for developers.
Janina-both and others. Having it in a core is a strong message. If we can succeed at it, we have the opportunity is having a compatible product that when Microsoft releases their new product. It may not be the technology we want but it is what we have and it works.
Olaf- might the fine print be changed later, if an LSB module is possible. If FSG announces separately from LSB, from political side may be easier.
Olaf- they are releasing a number of, the FSG cannot force distributions to do things
Janina- what Ian was saying, the value of LSB is the guaranty of compatibility. ISPs want see that because it gives them confidence that the products will work.
Bill- having an optional module would be useful as a degree of commitment to accessible. Unix access is still inferior to Windows, it is important to show our platform is committed to access. What fraction of that value would we get from an optional module vs. the full version. If we could show the roadmap toward having a required module.
Janina- I have convinced myself that it is not a bad option. I need to see what other products have done. I wish they had a better name than optional, like targeted.
Olaf- if qt4 was part of optional module, all the modern stuff. AT-SPI as a future direction module would.
Janina- I bet we would get excellent cooperation on this.

Britain's blue chip index took the scenic route to finish pretty much where it started - up around 83 points at 6,096.
A big rise in the oil price for Brent crude helped cheer the mood, as did fashion house Burberry (LON:BRBY), which jumped 7.54% to 430p.
It came as the group was upgraded to 'buy' from 'neutral' by Japanese broker Nomura, which looks ahead to potential catalysts coming from the clothes designer's business review.
The biggest gainer however was commoditie sgiant Glencore (LON:GLEN) after a late surge, which finished almost 8% up, at 128,25p.
In macro matters, UK consumer confidence fell this month to its lowest level since December 2014 amid economic concerns, a new official report showed.
Chris Beauchamp, at spreadbetter IG, described market sentiment at the moment thus: "Absent a sudden and stomach-churning crash on Monday, February looks to be going out with a definite bang.
"In the UK and Europe markets are storming higher, and while things are quieter so far on Wall Street it too is looking set to finish the month on a high. Worries about global growth, China, banks and US rates, which seemed so insurmountable a couple of weeks ago are now just a distant memory despite unveiling a further decline in sales.".
The biggest laggard on footsie was RBS (LON:RBS), which surprised no-one with its eighth consecutive annual loss.
And the bank, owned by UK taxpayers, warned to expect another £1bn of costs in the current year. Shares finished 7.13% lower at 226.6p.
Also flying lower on the day was BA owner IAG (LON:IAG), down 3.13% to 541p, as the market failed to cheer its prelims for 2015, which showed a 51% increase in profit helped by lower fuel prices.
Fuel unit costs for the year to end December before exceptionals were down 6.3% and, down 17.2% at constant currency, the group said.
Meanwhile, Sports Direct (LON:SPD) shares dropped as it announced it would shun a credit-line provided by majority shareholder Mike Ashley, who owns 55% of the retail group.
To smaller fry and Patagonia Gold (LON:PGD) added over 11% to 2.5p as it said it expects to start production from its Cap-Oeste prospect in Argentina by the autumn.
On the losing front, oil firm Petroceltic (LON:PCI) lost 41.67% to stand at 10.5p as it emerged largest shareholder Worldview had put in a low-ball takeover offer of £6.4mln.
At just 3p per share the offer is some 83% lower than Petroceltic's closing price yesterday.
The bid was 'deeply insulting' to many of the AIM quoted company's shareholders, according to City broker Cenkos

Vegetable Gumbo
Vegetarian Recipe
The aroma and goodness of fresh herbs will really enhance the already wonderful flavors of this vegetable gumbo recipe.
1 onion, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
2 ribs celery, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 pound okra, sliced, fresh, frozen
1 pound tomatoes, fresh, or canned
2 cups corn, fresh, frozen, canned
1 teaspoon vegetable bouillon granules
1/2 cup white grape juice
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon tabasco sauce
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
1 tablespoon basil or rosemary, minced
Vegetable coating spray
Recipe Directions
In a large heavy stew pot, place bouillon and 1/2 cup white grape juice, onion, green pepper, celery garlic, cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add other ingredients, cook over low heat, stirring occasionally to keep from sticking to bottom.
Cover and simmer gently until corn and okra are done (or simmer in crockpot 6 to 7 hours).
Recipe Notes
- Cut fresh corn from cob with a sharp knife, then scrape the remaining corn off the cob. Four ears will make about two cups. (See also: Get the Corn off the Cob!)
- If you use dried herbs, rub them with the palms of your hands before adding to the pot, this releases their aroma and goodness.

Many DNA-binding transcriptional activator proteins enhance the initiation rate of RNA polymerase II-mediated gene transcription by interacting functionally with the general transcription machinery bound at the basal promoter. Adaptor proteins are usually required for this activation, possibly to acetylate and destabilize nucleosomes, thereby relieving chromatin constraints at the promoter. The protein encoded by this gene is a transcriptional activator adaptor and has been found to be part of the PCAF histone acetylase complex. In addition, it associates with the tumor suppressor protein p53 and is required for full activity of p53 and p53-mediated apoptosis. At least four alternatively spliced variants have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined.

What are my best options for cosmetic surgery after bariatric surgery? (photos)
Doctor Answers 17
Dr. Derby Sang
Thank you for your question and photos.
Congratulations on your weight losss.. ! you appear to be a great candidate for a full tummy tuck combined with a lipo to mold your body figure and a breast lift/ augmentation with implants(optional) to contour and shape your breast.
best of luck.
Options following weight loss
Assuming your health is cleared for surgery you appear to be a nice candidate for breast lift/augmentation, circumferential body lift with a fleur di lis Tummy Tuck.... Sometimes i stage procedures but some clients prefer one large surgery. This will depend on your physical assessment with the physician. Seek consultation with a BC PS in your area. Best of luck and congratulations on your weight loss!
Body contouring after massive weight loss
Congratulations on your weight loss, great accomplishment! To address all that excess skin a lower body lift and breast lift +/- implants would be a good start. You can also do a thigh lift and arm lift later on. Be sure to consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Body Contouring After Bariatric Surgery
Thank you very much for your question and photographs. Congratulations on your dramatic weight loss. You appear to be an excellent candidate for a body contouring procedure, such as a body lift. This will include a circumferential incision around the abdomen, hips, and lower back, eliminating the excess tissue from your stomach and flanks. The body lift can be tailored to your unique needs, including additional procedures such as a breast lift or brachioplasty (arm lift). My recommendation is that you schedule an in-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, experienced in post-weight loss body contouring techniques. He/she will perform a physical examination and review your medical history, then suggest the most appropriate body contouring techniques for your needs.

Mommy Makeover Following Major Weight Loss
Congratulations on your weight loss success! It is best to undergo #MommyMakeover procedures when your weight has been stable for at least one year.
The Mommy Makeover is a combination of procedures to bring a woman's body back to the way she looked prior to pregnancy. Most commonly some variation of a #TummyTuck and #BreastSurgery are performed. Additional procedures can include liposuction, umbilical hernia repair. The most common #breastprocedures include #mastopexy or #breastlift, #breastaugmentation, or #breastreduction. #MummyTummy is a term given to modified tummy tucks which can use liposuction and skin tightening with radiofrequency such Vanquish, Vela3, thermage, thermiRF and others. The actual fat contouring can be done non-surgically as well with #UltraShape or Cool-Sculpting.
In addition to a one-on-one consultations with a board certified Plastic Surgeon, patients always need to be seen by their primary care doctor prior to such procedures. We screen every patient and their medical records for risks of blood clots (DVT) and then take appropriate measures. MWL (massive weight loss patients of 75 lbs or more) tend to have poor skin elasticity and will frequently need additional tightening even afte 6 -12 months regardless of who or how their surgery is performed. This is simply the nature of such body tissues and the ability to heal with the lack or limited elasticity.

Recovery after massive weight loss
Thank you for asking about your weight loss surgery.
- First of all, what a great achievement to lose the weight and keep it off.
- I think you want to discuss two options with your bariatric plastic surgeon -
- First a tummy tuck and breast lift, since that is your approach.
- And second the pros/cons of a lower body lift and a breast lift combined with a lateral chest lift.
- Given your weight, if you are healthy as well, it should be possible to do these at one time.
- But a final plan should be made by discussions with your surgeon weighting your time for surgery, your goals and the ideal result.
Always consult a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Best wishes. Elizabeth Morgan MD PHD FACS
Recommendations for post massive weight loss cosmetic rehab
Hi Cyte
Congratulations on your weight loss!
In looking at your pics, and not knowing much else, I would recommend a tummy tuck and lift. You may consider a breast augmentation at the same time or later. You may also want to consider a back lift at the same time as as tummy tuck (a 360 body lift).
I recommend that you consider staging procedures, that is, break up the procedures into multiple trips to the OR for safety, and to minimize wound healing risks.
After bariatric surgery, you are not able to take in fluids or nutrients as you did before, and this can negatively affect healing. Also, some of these procedures carry significant risks even in non-weight loss patients. Better safe than sorry.
Best of luck.

Lower Body Lift and Breast Lift Beneficial after Massive Weight Loss #lowerbodylift #breastlift
- Congratulations on your tremendous weight loss!
- We enjoy helping patients complete their weight loss journey by performing body contouring procedures to help with excess skin.
- A lower body lift would really help improve the appearance of you abdomen, lateral thighs, and waist.
- Additionally, a breast lift along with a breast implant could really transform the look of your breasts.
- Definitely meet with a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with the above-mentioned procedures.
- He/she will be able to review the technical aspects of these procedures and go over the post op recovery as well as possible complications.
- Best of luck to you, and thanks for sharing!

Post weight loss body contouring plan for a Texas patient
Congrats on your massive weight loss. A reasonable approach for you would be a circumferential body lift and breast lift with silicone implant augmentation. Both procedures could be completed under anesthesia in a reasonable amount of time. Other procedures such as arm and thigh lift surgery could be done at a second stage.
