|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
If Pau Gasol could pick one block of his season as his most important, he would probably pick Thursday night's against Ray Allen that sealed the win for the Lakers in Boston. L.A. defeated the Celtics for the second time this year 110-109 in overtime in quite the nail-biter. There were some bad calls here and there, but overall, it was a very good game that just happened to see the Celtics on the wrong end of scoreboard.
The Celtics had a few different players that performed exceptionally well. Ray Allen led the way with 22 points just a few hours after he had been named to the Eastern Conference All-Star Team. Paul Pierce had 21 points and Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo each added 16. Garnett fouled out after a very controversial call on a loose ball, which, maybe if the call had gone the other way, we might have seen the Celtics win.
Eddie House got back on track with 16 points and Leon Powe had 10. The Celtics bench really could have used a bigger contribution from Glen Davis who only finished with two points (on his go-ahead jumper late in overtime) after his last few red-hot games.
For the Lakers, there should be no surprise when I say that Kobe Bryant led the way with 26 points and 10 rebounds. Pao Gasol was right behind him with 24 points and 14 rebounds. Lamar Odom added 20 and Derek Fisher had 13. Odom will be key for the Lakers while they try to fill the void left by Andrew Bynum's injury.
The Celtics hopefully will not fall into another slump like they did after Christmas when the Lakers beat them in L.A. They have quite the road trip ahead of them and need to move past this loss and get back on track if they want to compete with Cleveland and Orlando in the East. The Celtics head to New York Friday night to take on the Knicks.

Geoff's last paragraph accurately reflects the worries of all Celtic fanatics, i.e. will the Celts go into another tailspin after another LA streak-ending victory over our team? The game in NY tonight will probably tell the tale.
LA did to Boston what Boston did to Philly – winning a game they had no right winning. For the officials to foul out a superstar during crunch time as they did to Garnett for, at best, a pitty pat foul, is just incomprehensible. Once again, a Celtic star gets absolutely no respect. Can you imagine this happening to Kobe or Lebron? Sure.
Sometimes Doc does things that are inexplicable to me. Where was the hot handed Eddie House late in the fourth quarter when the Celtics desperately needed scoring power? Instead, he pinned his hopes on Big Baby, who was having a dismal night, and kept House and Powe – who was having a terrific night – on the bench. Please explain it to me.
I'll say one thing for LA. After butchering their foul shots all night, they made the big ones when they counted. Unfortunately, Pierce missed two key ones in the fourth quarter, either one of which wins the game. So near, and yet so far. Oh well – just win tonight in New York. Please.
Jeez. Kevin Garnett slapped Derek Fisher as he went for the steal. Come on. That deserves a foul. And the Lakers won because of the guys around Kobe. This is the lakers best without Bynum. Not the prettiest 100 point game for LA but this was some of their best basketball. And they did it with a struggling Kobe. Imagine if everyone had a good night?
In answer to Sircarlos, are you kidding me? The foul on Garnett by Gasol thet precipitated the so called foul by Garnett was much more obvious than the one called on KG, yet Gasol got away with it. Had it been properly called, the foul against KG wouldn't have been an issue.
And a "struggling" Kobe? He had a double double with 26 points and 10 rebounds. I believe that's above his season average in both categories, or pretty darned close. He can't be expected to score 61 points on a regular basis, and I dare say that despite his many misses, Kobe's totals would be highly pleasing to most other players.
If this is the Lakers' best without Bynum, I say good, let's see these guys in the finals.

I am a a 32 year old mother of 5. I wrote a review a little while ago on the mommy makeover forum because I was going to do a mommy makeover but changed my mind and have decided to just do a full tt no lipo. It is scheduled for 11-1 and I am so nervous. I keep looking at my kids and feeling like I am being selfish. Then I look at my stomach in the mirror and it reminds me how bad I really want

what drove me to have surgery
still healing
I have had three consultations and have researched several doctors and I am happy to say that the wonderful ladies on realself have led me to Dr.Bruno. He is a wonderful dr. I was really impressed with his attitude, his attentiveness, it was as if he had all the time in the world for our consult he made sure to answer and explain any question I had for him. He listened to my concerns and asked what my goals were with the surgery and gave me the best options for what I wanted done he didn't try to sell me on more procedures like some of the others. His patients that were in the office the day I went in had nothing but amazing things to say about him and the procedures he performed on them. And looking at his work I was very impressed.

By Chris Harris
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is happy to play the waiting game while he learns his trade at Emirates Stadium.
The summer signing from Southampton made an electric start to his Arsenal career with goals on his first two starts against Shrewsbury Town and Olympiacos. But he has not featured for the first team since the Carling Cup win over Bolton last month.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has been tipped as a star of the future but, at 18, he is perfectly happy to bide his time.
"I signed for Arsenal expecting not to get into the team straight away because this is a massive club with a lot of top-quality players," he told Arsenal Player.
"I've signed a contract which is for a number of years so it's just about being patient for me. It's my first year and I'm not going to get as much game time but I'm learning loads in training and just taking everything I can to develop my game. You can learn so much from the boys in training, even just by watching them.
"Getting appearances along the way will feed me in slowly - there's no rush to push me. Obviously I do want to play but I trust the boss and he knows what's best for me.
"I'll keep working hard and when I do get my chance I need to take it. I'm positive: I'm at Arsenal, I'm only 18 and I wasn't expecting to jump straight into the team."

HAMILTON, N.Y. (4/11/2010) – Courtney Miller (Chappaqua, N.Y.) scored a game-high five goals including the game winner in sudden victory as Colgate overcame a five-goal deficit to upset 20th-ranked Florida 12-11, in women's lacrosse action Sunday afternoon at Tyler's Field.
The sophomore ripped a free position shot left side high from six meters that beat Cara Canington just 1:02 into the second overtime. With the victory, Colgate improved to 8-6 overall. The Gators, who were ranked 20th in the latest insidelacrosse.com poll, fell to 9-5. It was Colgate's second ever overtime game in the history of the program.
The Raiders rallied from a 7-2 deficit with less than six minutes left in the opening half. Miller and Quincey Spagnoletti (Baldwinsville, N.Y.) scored with 4:19 and four second left to pull Colgate within 7-4 at intermission.
Colgate evened the game within the first 8:19 of the second half by reeling off three consecutive goals. Colleen Bubnack (Syracuse, N.Y.) posted her 30th of the year on a successful free position shot with 28:25 left. Kate Bergstrom (San Francisco, Calif.) scored the second of her three goals on the afternoon 1:02 later by taking a feed from Meghan Lawler (Liverpool, N.Y.) and finding the back of the net. Miller knotted the game for the first time since the opening draw control with her third of the contest with 21:41 left. After the Gators appeared like they were starting to take control of the game back by scoring two consecutive goals to gain a 9-7 lead with 15:47 left, the Raiders rallied by answering with three goals of their own to take their first lead of the game. Miller and Lawler, Bergstrom all scored within a 2:23 stretch to give the Raiders a 10-9 advantage – the last goal coming with 4:25 left in regulation.
Florida got the equalizer with 1:45 remaining to send the game into overtime.
The Gators collected the lead in the first of two three-minute periods of overtime on Caroline Chesterman's third goal of the afternoon with 4:36 remaining. Colgate won the draw control and answered right back 23 seconds later as Bubnack connected for her second goal of the contest.
After the teams switched sides three minutes into the six-minute extra session, it appeared like the Raiders had regained the lead with 2:41 remaining as Brooke Flanagan (Wilton, Conn.) took a feed from Lawler on the right side and put the ball in the back of the cage for her second of the year. However, Florida's head coach won a challenge that the freshman's stick was deemed illegal, which negated the goal. Both teams had opportunities to win the game in overtime sending the contest to a three-minute sudden victory period.
Christina Roa (Potomac, Md.) was brilliant in net for the victorious Raiders. The sophomore thwarted some late Florida scoring opportunities, including making two saves in overtime, en route to posting a season-high 16 saves. It marks the eighth consecutive game in which she has tallied 10 or more stops in a game. Canington stopped eight in the defeat for the Gators.
Lawler inched closer to becoming Colgate's all-time career assist leader. The senior finished with a goal and five assists to move three away within three from becoming the career leader. Lawler's six-point effort gives her 196 points in her career, just seven points from passing Angela Chongris for fifth overall. Friday evening, she surpassed the single-season assist record with her 30th at Lafayette.
Caroline Cochran joined Chesterman with three goals for the Gators, while Janine Hillier added a goal and two helpers.
Colgate returns to action Saturday afternoon as it plays its last regular season road game at Bucknell. Game time is set for a 1 p.m. start.

Hey guys, have any of you had any experience with this ammo. I'm shooting a benelli super Vinci, and am headed to Canada for two weeks. My buddy says that he feels this is adequate for the trip due to good hunting conditions and the amount of close shots he usually gets. I saw it for $99.00 a case for BB. And 3's.
I was going to bring some higher quality but this is a great price.
Any thoughts???

Larian Studios - Next Projects Update
View Single Post
February 14th, 2011, 23:37
I'm always for the "crazy" option.
I don't quite care wht hey do, because I simply believe in them - no matter whether I will play or not play their actual games.
To me, it even doesn't matter whether my own preferred games are very different from what the actually do.
I just believe in the people of the studio - the more, since I could test there last year for a week.
I might not buy everything they do - I just
in them. And that's all that is important to me and to them, I think.
Apart from the money they - like
developing studio - need from their customers.
You can call me a "fan" if you want to.
Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction. (E.F.Schumacher, Economist,

It would be appreciated if anyone can please tell me what is the model of this watch or point me to somewhere on the internet where I can find more information and also what would be its current value now. Thanks in advance for your replies.

May 8, 2006 By News Report
The site, which can be found at http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/oilgas/, has newly developed tips for consumers on what they can do to conserve and save gas, as well as a gas column dedicated to summarizing for consumers current market conditions that may be impacting prices and the FTC's role in petroleum industry enforcement. A special feature of the new page is a "bumper-to-bumper" interactive guide to saving money at the pump. The FTC also released a related consumer alert with tips on saving gas.
"We want consumers to have useful information that cuts through any confusion and helps them understand what is happening with gas prices," said Chairman Deborah Platt Majoras. "The information on the Web page will provide users with clear and understandable information about what experts tell us is currently happening in the petroleum markets."
The additions to the Web site include:
A Gasoline Column -- Motorists throughout the United States have been concerned by the rapid increase in gasoline prices in recent weeks. The initial installment of the gas column is the first in a series of reports that will highlight information of interest to gasoline buyers and help consumers make informed choices in the marketplace. The information is drawn from public sources, filtered through the FTC's experience and knowledge base, and is not intended to draw any conclusions regarding the legal status of any conduct the FTC observes or may investigate in the marketplace.
Consumer Information -- A primary goal of the oil and gas Web site is to provide consumers with information on how they can save gas and money as they enter the summerdriving and vacation season. Accordingly, the site has links to a range of newly updated consumer publications about ways to improve fuel efficiency, become knowledgeable about octane ratings, and help boost gas mileage. It also cautions consumers about "gas-saving" gadgets that may cost more money than they wind up saving.
One interesting Web page feature allows users to click on any of six parts of an animated car to get detailed information about how each can help them save gas. Clicking on the car's steering wheel, for example, brings up tips such as, "Stay within the posted speed limits. Gas mileage decreases rapidly at speeds above 60 miles per hour," and "Use overdrive gears and cruise control when appropriate. They improve fuel economy when you're driving on the highway." The goal is to give consumers some hands-on tips to help them gain control over the amount of gas they are using.
Updated Reports and Releases -- The site has links to Commission reports on the oil and gas industry, as well as links to every press release on FTC enforcement actions related to petroleum, in both the merger and non-merger areas. Links also can be found to recent congressional testimony on gas prices and oil industry consolidation.

Help with RPO Code (Vinyl Top Issue)
I have a 92 Coupe Deville in Lt Beige Met., Paint Code U9805. I need to replace the 1/2 vinyl top that is so badly discolored I cannot tell what the original color was!! I have the SPID label and checked every code on it but I cannot find the vinyl top color. I'm thinking it might not be on that list that is posted (nice list by the way!).
The bottom line of the SPID label reads:
I'm thinking this is where the vinyl top color code might be. I went to an upholserer and from a GM vinyl color chart he has we both think the color might be Gold Mist Metallic and had 2 numbers. The numbers were 46 and
V6237 but I have no idea if they are GM numbers.
Can anybody help me out with this?
Thanks in advance

The last time I was in Vegas, I passed out in the middle of the night (not from what you think) and later found my husband down $400 at the Luxor blackjack table at 5 a.m. The trip wasn't a whole bust – we saw a revue, hotel hopped and ate our weight in buffets – but I'm craving a Sin City redo since little did I know that I was pregnant with my first at the time. Mama needs a cocktail, and a girls' weekend.
Help me decide between these cheap Las Vegas hotels.
- Tropicana Las Vegas
I'm feeling the old-schoolishness of the Trop. Its free-form 4-acre pool – among the best in Vegas – is a spot I could see myself busting out the white sunglasses and retro one-piece before settling back indoors, where a warm South Beach-meets-Havana theme pervades in orange, brown and white. And the cheapie in meal gets giddy about the moderate room rates and other on-site amenities such as the Mob Experience and comedy club. More reasons not to spend money on cabs to find entertainment elsewhere.
- Luxor HotelI'm a past Luxor guest, having chosen it the first time for the cheap rooms rates and to have the experience of spending the night in a pyramid. It's every bit as kitschy as it is gargantuan. The casino buzzes, and there's always the likelihood of running into Criss Angel and Carrot Top on the way to LAX.
- Vdara Hotel & Spa
My 30s do not resemble my 20s. I need at least six hours of sleep, a facial every season and a bar sans Coors signs and Golden Tee. That's why Vdara, just as luxurious but more affordable than other 5-star hotels near the Strip, appeals to me. Deluxe and Vdara suites feel like the vacation condo I would want to own someday – complete with city views, kitchenettes and a spa and salon downstairs offering things like snakeskin pedicures and feather hair extensions. Because in Vegas, wildlife is a perfectly acceptableuniform, not a trend.

Newb alert...
Hello all,
At 33yrs old I am just now learning to stop fighting the curls. I am also trying to totally relearn hair care. I was the only one in the family with curly hair, so was never taught to treat it any differently then the straight haired family members. Of course, I don't think they knew any different either. So I ended up looking like a big blonde cotton ball, which lead to years of straightening.
It was with much begging from my husband (he saw my hair air dry after being tossed in a pool), that I surrendered my flat iron. I told him I would try.
After looking for some tips online for frizz control, I started to learn that I was doing it wrong.... Now, I am trying to do it right, but there is A LOT to learn. :banghead:(HELP!)
I have figured out the following:
My hair is low porosity
Its fine with medium density
However, I'm confused to the type. I look and "quiz" out at a 2C... but it says 2C is coarser. Which my hair is far from. Is that part set in stone? Can I be a fine 2C?
Oh... I have a long way to go.... :read2:
So, Ya... hello from the really confused girl. LOL
Hello and welcome! I'm in the same boat as you - where MOST of the description of 2C fit, with the exception of the coarse hair. I have learned over my curly journey that a) my hair looked more 2b, 2c, or 3a depending upon products, technique, timing, and sun-moon-planet alignment :laughing6:; and b) in the end the category isn't the end-all determinant of what is going to work for you but just use it loosely as a guide. I started off like you and ended up bouncing between the 2 and 3 discussions for information.
Welcome again!
Welcome! Just to confuse you more there are several classification systems, they don't all link hair properties with curl pattern. There are plenty of 2c fine haired wavies.
Are you sure you are low porosity if you are fine haired and been flat ironing (damaging)? The DIY porosity tests are not scientific, you are better off looking at the way your hair behaves, using common sense, maybe getting a hair analysis.
THE NATURAL HAVEN: Junk Science - Hair Porosity Tests / Float or Sink
Fine hair tends to do well with hydrolysed protein, this is also strengthening for damaged hair. Some fine wavies find conditioner only washing weighs them down and they prefer a super gentle sulphate free (ideally anionic surfactant free) shampoo.
Thank you for responding. I am sure I'm low porosity. I did do the water/strand test, I even took a shower, came back and that hair was still sitting on the surface of the water.
I should mention that my hair is currently "virgin" has not been flat ironed, dyed, heated, etc. My husband requested to see my natural blonde hair because he hadn't seen it since junior high. In order to remove all the black dye, I chopped my hair into a pixie cut. When my hair started growing a little, it wouldn't lay flat and was too still too short to flat iron. I let it start waving and curling and everybody loved it. So, I started trying to go with it instead of fight it. Right now it is slightly past ear length.
Right now I'm Co-washing with Suave Naturals with Aloe. I use DevaCurl One Conditioner as a rinse out and leave in. DevaCurl Hair in Heaven as a weekly deep conditioner and DevaCurl AnGEL Light hold for styling. I use DevaCurl as they made it easy by labeling No sulfates/waxes/silicones. Honestly, I was going cross eyed trying to read labels. :tongue5:
I stand corrected on hair type. Apparently I was trying to judge my hair type with the length too short. When I showed my mother the hair type photos and description, she decided I was a 3A. I was quickly reminded that I have large spiral like curls, ("Banana curls" as my grandmother calls them. Or "Shirley Temple" curls as my mother says). I forgot how differently my hair curls when it gets about chin length. My mother made sure to point out that my hair is attempting to spiral now, but just doesn't have the length to do it. (okokok...mom you're right! you're right!!)
Hi! I'm new too. 31 and also having trouble with type. I am, I think, a 23-3a...my (very fine and soft) hair goes from tight waves to loose curls. I recently quit using my flatiron and am learning to take care of my hair. I want to bounce up the curls, and minimize frizz and crunch. I hope we learn some great tops for rocking our waves and curls!
Oops....I'm 39!

Maidana ready for Soto-Karass Saturday
Interview by Mariano A. Agmi
Photos by Chris Cozzone
Middleweight champion Sergio Martinez is not the only Argentine involved in a meaningful fight against a Mexican rival on September 15th. On the same night and in the same city, power puncher Marcos "El Chino" Maidana (31-3, 28 KOs) faces Jesus Soto-Karass (26-7-3, 17 KOs) in a bout that is sure to be an all action slugfest.
Maidana, a two time WBA light welterweight champion, is making a second attempt at welterweight after losing his most recent bout in that division against Devon Alexander in February. Fightnews.com caught up with Maidana on Friday, and the always humble fighter shared his thoughts on training with former IBF 130lb champ Robert Garcia, why he ended up training himself for his last bout, and his thoughts on the competing cards on September 15th.
How is training going for your September 15th bout against Jesus Soto-Karass?
Good, we finished sparring today and I felt very good, so everything is on schedule. I started out with young guys who were bigger than me. They helped me out a lot. In the last few weeks I was sparring guys that were smaller and faster so that I could work on defense.
Did you train in Puerto Rico and California again? If so, did you spar with Thomas Dulhorme?
No, I'm in Oxnard, CA for this camp. I sparred with Dulhorme once in Puerto Rico but I didn't go back this time. He's a good fighter; very talented.
You recently trained with Mario Diaz and later with Rudy Perez. Now you're training with Robert Garcia. How are these trainers different from one another?
Training is almost the same, but we are working more on technique. Robert is more technical, he focuses on head movement a lot so that I don't get hit as much. We spend a lot of time on defense and on throwing straighter, more accurate shots. Rudy Perez and Robert Garcia are similar and work almost the same, but I couldn't train with Rudy anymore because he got sick and it didn't work with the health issue he was facing. I went with Robert Garcia because he comes from the same school of boxing and he understands my style.
How are you preparing for your fight against Soto-Karass, and after losing 4 of his last 7 fights, do you think he is on the decline?
We're focusing on movement, because Soto-Karass comes forward a lot, throws a lot of punches and is strong. He hasn't been knocked out before, so I have to be well prepared physically to fight all 12 rounds [author's note: Soto-Karass lost via 5th round TKO against Gabriel Rosado in January 2012]. I've seen his last two fights and they were good victories, so I see him as a pretty dangerous opponent.
What do you consider to be your keys to victory in this fight?
We'll see on the 15th. We're looking to use a lot of movement and lots of speed. He looks slower than me. We're also looking to counter him a lot.
After your last fight [a 10 round decision loss to Devon Alexander], it was widely reported that you felt uncomfortable moving up to welterweight and decided to drop back down to junior welterweight. Why did you decide to accept this fight at welter?
The truth is that I was not well trained for my last fight. It took too much out of me to make 140. I tried to make the weight but it was really tough and I felt very weak, so I decided to try 147 again and I'll see how I feel and what I can bring to the table. In this fight, I'm well trained and I'm going to show what I can do at 147.
Are you relieved to be fighting someone like Soto-Karass, who will stand and fight you as opposed to one who will move on you the way that Khan and Alexander did?
Yes, this is a better style match up for me. We both go straight forward, so the stronger, more intelligent guy will win the fight.
After this fight, do you plan on staying in this division, or are you still experimenting with the weight?
We'll see how things go in this fight. I'll see how I feel. I felt very good throughout this entire training camp, so I think things will go well. If they do, I plan on staying at welterweight. I'd like to fight for a title or a title eliminator. I would like to fight Paul Malignaggi, a rematch with Devon Alexander or a fight against Tim Bradley. There are many fighters for me to fight at this weight.
The Alexander bout is the only fight that you lost clearly. What happened in that fight?
I trained without a trainer for that fight. Rudy Perez got sick and I ended up training in Puerto Rico by myself. I didn't train myself very well and I think it showed in my performance. I was also overconfident that I would easily make the higher weight and ended up having to lose a lot of weight at the last minute.
What do you think about the fact that there are two competing cards on September 15th in the same city, which, in your case, each card involves an Argentine against a Mexican?
I would think that it's good for Argentine boxing that Sergio and I are featured in big fights, but it would be great if we fought on different nights so that the public could see both. Overall it's not good for boxing, because it forces people to pick one or the other. The good thing is that my fight will be about an hour before his.
Speaking of Martinez vs. Chavez Jr., what do you think of that fight?
I don't think that fight will be easy for Sergio, but he will win it. Chavez is bigger and looks to be a tough opponent.
In some ways, you two are fighting similar styles in Chavez and Soto-Karass in that they each apply lots of pressure and fight aggressively.
Yes, Chavez always moves forward, but I think that Sergio boxes very well and I don't think that Chavez will find him easily. In my fight, I'm going forward and Karass will too, so it will be a toe to toe fight. I'm going to leave it all in the ring and am going to be efficient and smart about my offense, so I think I'll win.
Win or lose, you always give a great account of yourself and are always exciting to watch. Any last words on the fight?
I've been training hard here for 4 months and will go home to Margarita, in Santa Fe, after the fight. My people always treat me well and are excited about the fight and I hope it all goes well. Thanks to you for reaching out.

Country: United States
an update to my review. I just ordered 10 more of these and now they're using sandisk cards in retail packaging (before they were sandisk imitations that you could scratch the paint off of, but that still worked). the adapters I received also worked (though I cant speak for longevity). So on the whole these cards are higher quality than they have been in the past
Received six of these today. cards are good, but the adapters aren't. Not a single one worked. Not a concern and not worth the return for me, since I'm using a microSD reader anyway. Just as a heads up to those who need the adapters, know that they are a gamble
No public wish lists :(

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as Food Stamps, is the nation's largest federally funded source of food for low-income older adults. Despite its availability, however, many eligible Americans do not participate in the program:
SNAP Eligibility. While nearly 9 million older adults are eligible for SNAP, only one-third of eligible older Americans — about 2.9 million — participate in the program [U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2011 (PDF)].
Older Americans and SNAP. Only 8 percent of individuals receiving SNAP benefits are older adults, age 60 and older. Overall, however, 16 percent of households receiving SNAP include older adults [USDA, 2011].
Profile of Older Adult SNAP Recipients. Approximately 80 percent of older adults who receive SNAP live alone. In addition, their average:
o monthly gross income is $792
o amount of monthly SNAP benefit is $119
o certification period is 20 months [USDA, 2011]
Barriers to SNAP Enrollment. To determine why only one-third of those eligible for SNAP are receiving benefits, the USDA and other national anti-hunger organizations have conducted focus groups and other research to identify the primary application and enrollment barriers. These include:
o Lack of awareness about the existence of the program
o Stigma: negative perceptions of SNAP as "welfare" or "government dependency"
o Perception that the benefit amount is too small (While the minimum monthly benefit amount is $16, the average monthly benefit is $119.)
o Complicated application procedures and face-to-face interviews (Requirements vary from state to state.)
o Lack of accurate information about the program and who is eligible
o Asset requirements — often as low as $3,000 for households with someone age 60 or over in it (Requirements vary from state to state.)
o Cumbersome reporting requirements
o Problems with documenting proof of income and other paperwork requirements
o Unaddressed language and cultural barriers
o Lack of transportation/isolation in rural areas
o Lack of communication between multiple agencies serving the same older individuals
Economic Impact of SNAP. Every $5 paid in SNAP benefits by the federal government generates $9.00 in local economic activity. Currently, 85 percent of supermarkets process EBT cards [USDA Economic Research Service, 2010 (PDF)].

Her research focuses on women's health, infertility, and depression.
Last year, Dr. Olshansky was selected from more than a hundred applicants to be a 2002 Fellow of the Leadership for Academic Nursing Program. Supported by the Helene Fuld Health Trust and AACN, the program is designed to enhance the leadership capabilities of individuals aspiring to lead academic nursing organizations and those new to the role of chief academic administrator of baccalaureate or graduate nursing programs. Dr. Olshansky also has been an active participant in AACN's faculty development programs, including several Doctoral Education Conferences.
"The Journal of Professional Nursing has been and will continue to be a strong mechanism through which we can communicate, discuss, and debate strategies for addressing the many challenges within our discipline," said Dr. Olshansky. "In my role as editor, I will continue to encourage critical thinking among the readership by emphasizing timely issues, embracing various perspectives, and providing a venue for open dialogue and debate."
Now in its 19th year, the Journal of Professional Nursing strives to keep pace with continuing changes and professional standards that affect nursing education, research, and practice.

ICAP CEO Spencer Says He Shares 'Disgust' on Libor Action
ICAP Plc (IAP) Chief Executive Officer Michael Spencer said the behavior of three former brokers charged by U.S. prosecutors for manipulating Libor is "profoundly regrettable."
"I share with you your horror and disgust," Spencer, 58, said on a call with journalists today. "I regret this whole episode very deeply and very profoundly. A small number of people have let us down very, very badly."
ICAP was today fined $88 million by U.S. and U.K. regulators for its role in the rigging of the yen London interbank offered rate. The three brokers were charged with two counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud for allegedly colluding with traders at UBS AG (UBSN) to manipulate the benchmark interest rate.
Of the 10 employees identified by regulators as involved in the wrongdoing, the "three people at the center of this were dismissed a while ago, others have gone as well and a tiny number" are still with company after being disciplined, Spencer said. The company is now spending about 17 million pounds ($27 million) a year on compliance, he added.
London-based ICAP, the world's largest broker of transactions between banks, was fined $65 million by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission and 14 million pounds by the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority.
"I don't think we'll lose clients," Spencer said. "At the end of the day, rogue conduct is something that any company is vulnerable to."

TSB Circular 30 - Replies to the 2005 Questionnaire on conditions for provision of "call-back"
Alternative Calling Procedures (Call-Back)
The World Telecommunications Standardization Assembly 04 (WTSA-04) adopted Resolution 29 on alternative calling procedures on international telecommunication networks. In that Resolution, the sovereign right of each country to regulate its telecommunications, as expressed in the basic instruments of ITU, was reaffirmed. In this regard, each country has the right to authorize, prohibit or regulate call-back practices. National regulatory measures must be respected by other countries within the limits of their own legislation, and the recognized operating agencies (ROAs) and administrations concerned must communicate and collaborate.
Workshops and Seminars
Workshop on Video and Image Coding and Applications (VICA)
Where: GenevaWhen: 22 - 23 July 2005Contact: email@example.com
In between the meetings of two lead technical groups working on image and video compression, ISO/IEC's JPEG and ITU-T's Study Group 16, ITU will host a workshop on Video and Image Coding and Applications (VICA) at the ITU headquarters, Geneva, Switzerland, 22 to 23 July 2005. Key experts will join users to review the development, assessment and application of video and image coding and to discuss and start work on an action plan and a roadmap for VICA standardization. Presentations will instigate discussion on how standards work in the field, including how next generation networks (NGN) can support the development of so-called ubiquitous services - any device, anytime, anywhere. Current work on home network environments will also be taken into account. Also at the event there will be an interoperability demonstration showing various products using related standards. All interested parties are free to attend.
Geneva, 21 April 2005 - ITU will hold a workshop on next generation networks (NGN) together with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), 1 - 2 May, 2005, Geneva.
Since May 2004 intense work has taken place in ITU, towards the development of standards that will define services, network and systems architecture in the next generation of IP enabled communication systems, or next generation networks (NGN).
The objectives of the workshop are to report the progress of ITU's work on NGN and explore specific issues that impact both the ITU and the IETF in order to better understand the work underway in the two organizations and to identify areas where action can be taken to make further progress.
ITU to Host Workshop on Information and Communication Technologies in Vehicles
Geneva, 8 February 2005 ? ITU and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) are partnering with one of the world's largest automobile events ? the Geneva International Motor Show ? to host a workshop 2-4 March, focusing on the synergy between the information and communication technologies (ICT) and the automotive sector.
The ITU Operational Bulletin was first published by the ITU more than 35 years ago and continues today to provide all administrations, operators and service providers as a favoured medium for the exchange of essential information on changes in international telecommunications networks and services.
List of Codes and Numbers - Lists published by TSB or BR as Annexes to the ITU Operational Bulletin
To facilitate this collaboration, a draft guideline has been prepared under which ITU is to collect information once a year on the positions adopted by each country in respect of call-back practices within its territory and disseminate the findings by the most effective method. Administrations and ROAs receiving this information must take all necessary steps to prevent call-back practices from being supplied to countries which prohibit them. The TSB has circulated the questionnaire each year since 1996. The results were disseminated by a TSB Circular.
The Bureaufax Table, published in collaboration with the Universal Postal Union (UPU) in pursuance of the provisions of ITU-T Recommendation F.170 (03/98), is now published in electronic version only.
ENUM defines a method for entering Recommendation E.164 country codes into the Internet Domain Name System. Please consult TSB Circular 105 for the formal communication concerning ITU-T and ENUM.
Administrations are requested to notify ITU about their national numbering plan changes, or to give an explanation of their web page on national numbering plan as well as their contact points, so that the information, which will be available freely to all Administrations/ROAs and service providers, can be posted on ITU-T website.
A centralized List of ITU Carrier Codes (ICCs) has been created with the ITU/TSB as the repository. All domestic and international carriers are expected to register with ITU/TSB for a carrier code.
TIES account required.
Member States and Sector Members are kindly asked to notify the TSB of situations that they are aware of that indicate potential misuse of numbering resources. In providing such information, Member States and Sector Members are asked to explain why they believe that a misuse is occurring, for example use of non-assigned resources, or incorrect routing of assigned resources, or use of resources for purposes other than those for which they were assigned.
The IPR ad hoc group met in Geneva, 11-12 March 2005 to discuss IPR matters relevant to standardization in ITU-T.
The revision of two patent declaration forms was completed the meeting: the General Patent Declaration form and the Patent Declaration form for common & twin texts with ISO/IEC. The updated texts now reflect changes agreed by the group at its July 2004 meeting.
The group also produced a new version of the Software Copyright Guidelines, whereby the second paragraph in section 2.3.1 was moved to a new paragraph following the section 2.3.
And in the "marks" front - i.e., trademarks, service marks and certification marks - the group agreed on a first version of Guidelines on how to use "marks" in ITU-T Recommendations.
The group also discussed on what might define an "Open Standard" from the perspective of standardization work in ITU, and the preliminary outcome was annexed to the meeting report. Even though it does not constitute an ITU-T definition, it may be useful to help progress the discussions elsewhere in ITU.
and their associated issues. The membership of the group is open to all ITU-T and ITU-R members. Non-members can participate in meetings/reflector discussions at the invitation of the TSB Director.

Below, we compiled information on the history of Parliament Watch (in German: Abgeordnetenwatch), its finances and how you can launch Parliament Watch in your home country.
On abgeordnetenwatch.de (which translates as "member of parliament watch") users find short profiles of their representatives in the federal and European parliaments and can publicly ask questions which are then answered by the elected officials.
Parliament Watch enables citizens to:
All of these functions are completely free of charge and don't require prior registration.
Parliament Watch is financed through membership and one-off donations as well as premium profiles for candidates during election times.
The idea of Parliamentary Watch works: In average abgeordnetenwatch.de counts 6,800 visitors a day and about three million page impressions per month. More than 90% of all "Abgeordnete" (German for: members of parliament) of the federal parliament answer questions through abgeordnetenwatch.de. In Germany, the project covers the federal parliament, the European parliament, twelve state parliaments and 54 communal parliaments.The corpus of our saved submissions is called the Digital Voters' Memory and counts 178,825 questions and 143,556 answers as of August 2015.
So far we helped to start Parliament Watch projects in France, Ireland, Austria, Luxemburg, Greece and Tunisia. In addition, Parliament Watch inspires similar projects in other countries e.g. Malaysia.
We ask project partners to be impartial, independent and serious about their involvement. To ensure impartiality, we will not cooperate with political parties or high profile party members or politicians.
Find more information on the Parliament Watch Network.
Are we witnessing a revolution? It sure looks like it. The internet has changed the world and even the very nature of democracy. What was unthinkable in the past becomes a reality with Parliamentwatch: Citizens are enabled to engage in direct communication with their representatives and candidates. You can ask questions, discuss current topics and present own ideas and solutions. It is quite straightforward and marks nothing less than a revolutionary step from representative democracy to direct democracy.
Still today, most democracies in the world have only a few elements of direct participation (if any) and the decision-making process can be opaque.
The german federal parliament (Bundestag), for example, is the most important legislative branch in Germany and has more than 600 members. Half of them are directly elected from 299 constituencies, the other half is elected from the parties' electoral lists to achieve proportional representation in the Bundestag.
On top of that the legislative bodies of the states (Länder) have each between 50 and 200 members. And finally there's the EU with numerous different institutions and growing impact on legislation in nation member states. No wonder citizens feel alienated from politics.
This is where Parliament Watch comes in. We are driven by the vision of a more accessible political elite and a more participatory population.
It is as easy as it can be. With abgeordnetenwatch.de voters, citizens, basically anybody can get in touch with their representatives. It's quite straightforward: All you have to do is give your name and e-mail address. You log on, give your zip code and your voting precinct is immediately found by the computer. You get the profile of your representative and you can fire away your question. All questions and answers are reviewed by a team of moderators to make sure the code of conduct is followed.
In particular, questions that meet the following criteria are excluded:
Almost seven thousand questions reach abgeordnetenwatch.de each month, 300.000 people enter the site and generate three million page impressions. In the beginning, elected officials and candidates were sceptical to the new approach, but they quickly saw the advantage of digital communication and now most questions are answered - in fact over 90% of all listed politicians are active on abgeordnetenwatch.de. Over 80% of all 34,200 questions in the last legislative period of the Bundestag (2009 -2013) were answered.
Starting in 2015, we set up a new feature on Parliament Watch which is called the "petition check".
For this tool we feature a list of petitions revolving around popular topics that are not officially subject to the political debate yet. The idea is to submit the petition to all members of a parliament and ask them about their opinion on the topic. In order for this to happen an online petition has to meet certain requirements:
- The parliament has to have decision-making power for the topic of the petition
- The petition has to be signed by at least 100,000 people
- A representative survey has to ensure that a majority of citizens is in favor of the request.
The first step (of our petition platform) is to collect the required amount of signatures needed. As soon as the number is reached, we run a representative survey to learn about the general public opinion. If a majority of the public is in favor of the petition, we go on to the last step. All members of the parliament will be given the chance for a statement which is published in their profile on Parliament Watch. This way citizens can see what members of the parliament think about relevant social topics, which are otherwise not voted on in parliament.
The goal of Parliament Watch is to create a more transparent democratic process and encourage citizens' participation.
These aims can only be reached, when the platform itself stays completely independent. Abgeordnetenwatch.de is financed by donations of its users and sponsors who donate a minimum of € 5 per month. So far there are more than 2,500 regulars.
In addition, politicians have the possibility to upgrade their profiles to include certain features. In return for a once-off payment of up to € 200 candidates can add a picture, CV, political goals and an election campaign calendar to their profile.
These additional features are optional. Basic details such as name, party, constituency, professional qualification and current occupation, as well as the interaction with voters, are completely free of charge.
In 2004 two friends, sociologist Gregor Hackmack (l.) and IT expert Boris Hekele (r.), would sit in a crowded pub in the city of Hamburg. At the time, a referendum on a new election system was held in the city and one particular question reoccured time and again: "How can I vote for a certain person when I don't even know who he or she is?" Gregor and Boris were having a beer when the idea for abgeordnetenwatch.de materialized in their heads. Now if that German beer known for its purity wasn't a good catalyst for democratic change.

Happy Customer.
From first arrival the quality and friendliness of the staff was apparent.
Very attentive without getting in the way, a balance which is often not achieved by other hotels. Room was great and the food was above what we would have expected. It did not fall into the trap of over complicating things just really good high quality food.
On a practical point, the decor and maintenance was to a high standard.

Stay in Plymouth
an excellent hotel where we have enjoyed a pleasant break in a quality hotel
A hidden gem
We just wanted somewhere to have some time away, where there wasn't any pressure to do anything or explore a city.
As it was the grounds were beautiful and it's a 10 min walk to a lovely little beach. We weren't going to eat in the restaurant as it was a little too 'fine dining' for us but they also offered a brasserie menu which looked good. It turned out to be excellent and very resonable. The chicken and ham hock pie was the best I've had, as was the sticky toffee pudding. The staff were attentive and courteous. The beds we're comfy, but could have done with a topper to avoid falling down the middle. The TV was a good size but the remote's batteries were on the blink. The decor inside and outside the too was classy and felt high end. Breakfast was really good although we were last down, there was still a good selection although some pastries appeared to have run out.
Interestingly there was no mechanism for giving feedback at the hotel, but I guess this is it. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it. Excellent value for money.

I like Sabre just because the can I carry is a mix of CS Tear Gas, Pepper Spray, and UV dye. So something will affect the BG. And they are only 6 bucks at my local knife store.
This is a discussion on fox labs spray vs. sabre red sprays within the Defensive Knives & Other Weapons forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I wanted to get the best self defense spray but i am stuck between fox labs and sabre red sprays do you have any takes ...
I wanted to get the best self defense spray but i am stuck between fox labs and sabre red sprays do you have any takes on either or experience with one or the other. right now I have fox labs but have been hearing a lot about sabre and want to know if I should switch.

You should TRY the stuff...whatever you buy.
Yes, buy one extra and try spraying it in the wind (which might just be the situation in the real world some day). I think that if you're going to carry spray, know how far it works, what the spray is like (fog, stream, etc.)...and with some wind around, you WILL get some in your eyes.
Getting a little bit in your own eyes and knowing how it feels and what your are still able to do is a must.
You don't want a little spray to hit you because of the wind and then have the BG take your gun away, do you?

I got the Sabre Red with the Tear gas added.. thats
what was in my gun store, so thats what I got.
It might be that fox is hotter? I wanted to get some
of the mean green formula with fox.
I've used both and prefer the Fox Labs. Both are good products IMHO though.

Personal Pepper Spray at CopsPlus. Check out that Guardian brand "Hipower" OC. It's like 3 million scoville heating units!! if you can order that from copsplus i'd say that would be what you need!
If you can read this thank a teacher. If it is written in English thank a Marine.
If you're thinking about FoxLabs then go with the spray made by DPS.
Same formulation as FoxLabs but, loaded to a slightly higher pressure for 5' greater effective range. Just FYI.
These actually look fairly convenient but they're all on a charm-bracelet format. Is the Kimber "Pepper Blaster" too big for practical carry? I watched the video and it appears to be far more effective at distance and maybe less likely to blowback. At 40-bucks I've considered it for my female friend.
Monsters are real and so are ghosts. They live inside of us, and sometimes they win.

Being a LEO and being sprayed numerous times, I will tell you FOX Labs is the hottest stuff out there. Get Fox. Heres a link for you it has FOX, SABRE and DEFENSE TEC brands. Fox Pepper Spray, Fox Labs Pepper Spray
FOX comes in a fogger pattern and SABRE comes in a stream pattern. IMHO the fogger is better. The NYPD carries SABRE red and federal agencies carry FOX.
One more step and it's on!
I am sure some will disagree here, but I keep Fox spray and when I have tested it I always get some in my eyes no matter how hard I try not to. I may be especially succeptible to OC, but I would likely be in as bad a shape as the BG.
Accordingly, I mostly carry the foam. Now I know some will say that the BG will scrape it off and throw it back at you.
I have a friend who is a reserve LEO and had to spray three men who were drunk and were going to beat him and throw him in the lake. He gave each a shot of the foam, and all three collapsed when they were hit.
I won't argue with those of you who have had the prisoner throw foam back at you, but I am not going to risk getting the wind blowing the spray back on me, and disabling me.
There is always the chance that the BG can ignore the spray too. I saw on TV an instance where a deputy sheriff was sprayed and it did not seem to affect him at all.
I buy fox and would carry both. Fox comes in stream, cone fog and foam.
We sleep safely in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm - George Orwell
I hate all of it. It all hurts. It all makes it hard to see.
I used to carry Punch II until we got Tasers and went with Sabre which is non flammable.
I havent seen either one not work well yet. Everytime someone gets sprayed, somehow I get some of it. Even transporting people that have been sprayed is no fun, no matter if you never even touch them, you will still feel the effects.

I to like the Fox Labs 5.3, in a 2oz cone pattern, flip-top ..though I wouldn't whine to much if I could only get something like Sabre Red or Freeze+P
The cone pattern(more wind resistant than a true fog) makes it easier to hit your target on the move(like a shotgun pattern) or while using lateral movement to get the wind a little more in your favor ;) ..the more atomized the stream the quicker it takes full effect, also the more it affects the respiratory system(not just skin and eyes) ..is partly why Bear spray is always a Fog, that and can create a lingering barrier trailing between you and the animal
Here's some video examples of both Fox labs 5.3 and Sabre Red sprays..
YouTube - pwned by Fox labs pepper spray oc 5.3 million scoville units
YouTube - Pepper Spray
This place includes a well made nylon holster with a good steel clip for like $4 extra that is definitely worth it...
Fox Labs Pepper Spray, Hottest & Best
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36
Feedback from local LEO's and instructors locally all agreed - Fox is the way to go. I haven't yet had the guts to test it and bear the consequences. I don't debate that I should .. but it's one of those easy things to put off if ya know what I mean!
I also have a Kimber Pepper blaster that I carry when cycling. The size is fine for cycling and maybe carry during cooler months where it could be carried in a jacket pocket. Otherwise I personally consider it to be a bit large for convenient carry in jeans etc ... It has a clip one could consider using to attach it to your pants .. but I'm certain I'd drop it almost immediately and it's to darn expensive not to mention dangerous in the wrong hands (kids) to not have it secured properly. Fox makes a very nice small unit that my wife really likes as it's small enough to not generate an excuse to not carry it.

Flu viruses are commonly spread when the infected person coughs or sneezes into the air in proximity to others. You can also be infected by touching contaminated surfaces or objects, such as keyboards, phones, doorknobs, or personal care items and then touching your mouth, eyes or nose. The Influenza virus remains alive on surfaces for 2 to 8 hours.
To keep from getting sick with the flu, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends:
- Hand washing is the best, single way to avoid the spread of infection. Practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands often with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Hand sanitizer dispensers have been installed in the entrances of all campus buildings and in the computers labs located in Goulet, Poisson, Academic Resource Center, and the New Hampshire Institute of Politics.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you don't have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder; not into your hands.
- Get vaccinated. Talk to your health care provider to find out if you should be vaccinated for seasonal flu. A vaccine clinic for the seasonal flu will be held on campus.
- Encourage sick people to stay at home or in their residence except to speak to a health care provider about whether they have the flu, appropriate treatment, and what actions to take if they have severe symptoms. They should stay home until they are free of fever for at least 24 hours.
- Stay at least six feet away from infected people, or wear a face mask while in their presence.
- Establish regular schedules for frequent cleaning of commonly touched surfaces, including doorknobs, handrails, remote controls, keyboards, telephones, chairs, and desks. Use disinfectant wipes for cleaning.

If you missed KET's coverage of Governor Steve Beshear's budget address Tuesday, you might have missed The Prayer.
If you turned away from the TV or radio for just a moment, at the top of the hour, you may have failed to catch Dr. Hershael York of the Buck Run Baptist Church in Frankfort as he delivered The Prayer.
After a few comments on the Governor's speech, we'll get to that prayer.
Governor Beshear made good on remarks made to legislators two weeks ago during his State of the Commonwealth address that his proposal could contain deep cuts.
Last night he said: "The budget requires painful cuts that may well force us to retreat on some core services and that risks jeopardizing progress we've made over the decades in education."
Now, The Prayer.
Prayer is not uncommon before gubernatorial speeches and regular sessions of the General Assembly. Dr. York was asked to deliver the invocation by Senate President David Williams a couple of weeks ago.
As everyone knows, expanded gambling is a hot topic in Kentucky right now. Most thought Governor Beshear would include some mention of the issue in his remarks, and he did. But very few thought the subject would be the central theme of the invocation.
I caught up with Dr. York in the Atlanta airport Wednesday morning. He told me he had received a number of emails and Tweets since he delivered the Tuesday prayer; he said it had taken him about ten minutes to write down what he wanted to say. His opposition to expanding gambling in the state comes from the pastoral work he's done over the years. York asked God to "help us foster salaries, not slot machines" and says his opposition to gaming is on moral grounds, not financial.
Here is Dr. Hershael York's prayer before a joint session of the legislature prior to Governor Beshear's budget speech.
Following the prayer, I have posted the portion of Governor Beshear's speech on expanded gambling.

All we babus talk English to show off,' said Hurree, flinging his shoulder-cloth jauntily.
Once upon a time the babus of Nayanjore were famous landholders.
We had a man killed in one of our forest villages at Mendabari recently; and our babus were held up the other day by a rogue.
Once upon a time the babus at Nayanjore were famous landholders.
I heard he had told his friends that the babus of Nayanjore never craved a boon.
But, cried the Oriental in him, babus do not travel far to retail compliments.
Sahibs cannot distinguish one hillman from another, but babus have eyes for men—and women.'
The babus make beautiful accountants, and if we could only see it, a merciful Providence has made the Babu for figures and detail.
No concessions to the clamour of the babus of Bengal will retain the loyalty of this country.
