Charity52, a socially focused platform for promoting non-profits announced their first fundraising campaign with AdoptAClassroom.org. During the week long campaign, Charity52 will contribute $8 from the sale of each of their "charity inspired" limited edition t-shirts to AdoptAClassroom.org programs. The t-shirts, designed by nationally renowned artists are designed to spark conversation and increase awareness.
AdoptAClassroom.org is a non-profit organization that increases opportunity for student success by providing teachers with community partners and funds in order to purchase classroom resources.
"We're incredibly excited to feature AdoptAClassroom.org in our first fundraising campaign," said Alice Ruiz, Executive Director of Charity52. "The model that AdoptAClassroom.org uses to connect the community with classrooms and will allow for directed giving when it is the most effective is inspiring."
1. Selecting a classroom
A donor selects a classroom and makes a contribution for the teacher to use and purchase much needed resources for the classroom. Donors may search for classrooms by geography, school name, teacher name or other search criteria. If a donor has no preference, Adopt-A-Classroom partners the donor with an underserved classroom in the community.
2. 100% of donation to the classroom
Adopt-A-Classroom directs 100% of all donations earmarked for classrooms to the classroom teacher in the form of online credit. Adopt-A-Classroom takes $0 for administration.
3. Ordering classroom resources
The teacher uses the credit to shop online from a network of affiliate vendors that have partnered with Adopt-A-Classroom. The teacher has full discretion to purchase resources that meet student needs and increase opportunity for classroom success. If the teacher is unable to meet classroom needs with the affiliate vendors, Adopt-A-Classroom will work with the teacher on a one-to-one basis.
4. 100% accountability and transparency
Adopt-A-Classroom sends each donor an "Impact Report" which details item-by-item, dollar-for-dollar what the teacher purchased with the donation.
5. Corresponding and interacting
Donors and teachers communicate throughout the school year, so donors can learn about the difference they have made in the lives of the students. In most instances, donors receive thank you packages, artwork and other student created projects. Donors may choose to support the classroom in ways beyond the financial contribution, such as visiting the classroom, chaperoning field trips and other activities that are coordinated directly between donor and teacher.
6. Lasting relationship
As donors participate in subsequent years, they not only enjoy the cumulative effect of their efforts with each new class of students, but also develop a lasting and meaningful relationship with the classroom teacher.

I joined a swap where I had to make the whole collage out of magazines. It was a nice challenge. I kept on wanting to add paint or stitches. This is what I came up with:
Next time, I will try to make the contrast between the background and tree silhouette a little stronger; but I really like it. I may have to make some of these as holiday presents! The "stitching" is my favorite.
Then, I was inspired by this packing tape technique that pretty lily was using. I made a whole bunch because they are fast and fun. They are slowly finding homes. I sent the following one to pretty lily, since she was my inspiration.
And I sent this minimal one to Jon Foster since I hear that he was the IUOMA member who "discovered" the technique.
Ah, so many more many more magazine pages to put packing tape on and then quickly lift to see what randomness stays on the tape!
This last photo is just because I bought a new coat when I was out looking for rolodex containers. I just love the gold and the color combos that it encourages me to make. I'm holding our local clock tower in my hand no less.
And before departing, I want to send positive energy to my fellow Washingtonians that are at our state capitol protesting the budget cut proposals which are nothing less than drastic and inhumane.
Have a good week,

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Someone actually reviewed this story recently, and reminded me that I have a terrible tendency to leave stories unfinished here on No excuse with this story, since I finished it a long time ago. So here's more of the Snowbird Saga; enjoy and R&R, please.
Sudeten Operations Area Headquarters
Sudeten, Tamar March, Federated Commonwealth
20 July 3050
"Twycross?" Sheila whispered. "Why there? I mean, aside from the fact that it has a big 'Mech factory."
"It's a hellhole. I've been there. Constant dust storms, huge hurricanes…what they call dust devils other planets call tornadoes." Max Canis-Vlata leaned back in his chair. "Anyhow, that's the rumor." He looked around the room. The two of them were early, and they were the only ones there. It was a windowless, ferrocrete chamber, in which ten chairs were gathered around a table and a circular holotank. "Sheila, why are we here? We're nobody."
"I don't know, Max. Maybe somebody doesn't think so. We do have more experience than most people against the Clans. We've fought 'em twice, on Persistence and Rasalhague. Most units have only fought the Clans once."
"Mainly because they didn't survive it," Max observed dryly.
"Just hope we're not window dressing."
The door opened, and Victor Steiner-Davion walked in, followed by Kai Allard-Liao, Morgan Hasek-Davion, and Christian Kell. Victor and Kai were the same age—nineteen—as Sheila and Max, whereas Christian was in his late twenties, and Morgan a contemporary of their fathers'. Both Sheila and Max jumped to attention, feeling very, very unimportant. Victor Steiner-Davion was heir to the throne of the Federated Commonwealth, and could one day be very possibly the most powerful man in the Inner Sphere. Kai Allard-Liao was also an heir, though to the tiny St. Ives Compact, and his father was the head of the FedCom's intelligence service. Morgan Hasek-Davion was the commanding officer of the entire Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth. Christian Kell was merely a major in the service of his uncle's regiment, the famous Kell Hounds, but his father was the legendary Patrick Kell, regarded as one of the ten best MechWarriors in history.
Victor came around the table and shook hands with Max, then hugged Sheila fiercely. "How the hell are you guys?" he gushed. "We heard the Sentinels got in it on Persistence, and I wondered if you two had made it!" He stepped back and looked at Sheila's Commonwealth Star with a grin. "Damn. You move pretty fast, classmate."
Sheila smiled back. "We heard you were in the crap on Trellwan, too. Glad to hear you made it out." Sheila and Max had both attended the Nagelring in the same class as Victor, the Class of 3050. Max did not know the young prince very well, but Sheila had struck up a friendship with him. Victor had kept himself aloof from most of his class, not wanting to get by on the strength of his name, nor wanting sycophants. Still, when pitted against Victor, many students had lost deliberately either in a vain attempt to curry favor or in fear, though Victor had won most of his scenarios by skill. Sheila, however, had beaten Victor soundly, and treated him like any other student. She too had been aloof, but not by choice—mercenary daughters were not popular at a high-class academy like House Steiner's Nagelring. The two had gotten to be friends because neither had too many to begin with. Sheila had to mask the fact that she once had nursed a terrible crush on the prince, though at six feet, she towered over Victor, who stood only five foot four.
Kai too walked over to shake hands warmly with both of them. Max knew Kai better; both had done a semester at the New Avalon Military Academy in Davionspace, though they knew each other only because they had fleeting contact in shared classes. Morgan and Christian were more professional in their greetings.
They took their seats. Max turned to Kai. "Have you been in action yet, Kai?"
"Not yet. Probably not for awhile, either. My 'Mech was held up in transit. If we go into action anytime soon, I'll guess I'll have to watch." He tried to make it a joke, but it came out flat. No MechWarrior liked to be dispossessed, even for a short time, and Kai, whose birthright seemed a burden on him, wanted to uphold the honor of his family.
"I told you not to worry about it," Victor said. "I'll get you a 'Mech. It won't be your daddy's Centurion, but at least you'll have a 'Mech."
"Take a Hatchetman," Max suggested. "I used one on Rasalhague, and it's pretty good. No long-range missiles like your Centurion, but that hatchet makes up for it at close range." Max sighed. "Though it's not as good as a Battlemaster."
Sheila felt sorry for Max. He had received his mother's assault 'Mech as a graduation present, then had it shot out from under him on Persistence. The depression of Max and Kai hung like a blanket over that side of the table, but then the general attitude was grim.
"Everybody here?" Morgan Hasek-Davion said. He was a big man, well-built with a mane of red hair. He consulted his notes, made a few marks, and looked up again. "Good. Lance Commander Arla-Vlata, Lance Commander Canis-Vlata, you're probably wondering what you're doing here. We've come up with the idea of a Junior Officers' Strategy Group to find some ways of dealing with the Clans. The sad fact is, the tactics we've been using for years aren't even slowing them down. So we've got to come up with new ones. The problem is, a lot of us old farts—" the joke brought a gale of laughter "—tend to be set in our ways. Hence, the need for new blood.
"The two of you may not feel like much, being around all these titles and ranks and stuff. Don't worry about it." He took off his uniform jacket and tossed it nonchalantly on a chair next to him. "We're not wearing any rank in this room. I'm not General Hasek-Davion, I'm Morgan. We don't have time for 'Your Grace,' 'Your Highness,' and all that. And there's the plain fact that the two of you have more experience than anyone else in this room. With the exception of Victor, you're the only ones who have actually fought the Clans, and you're the only ones, without exception, who have fought them twice. So don't be shy. The purpose of the JSOG is to come up with new ideas and tactics. No matter how off the wall or screwed-up they might seem. Clear?"
"Yes, sir," Sheila and Max answered at the same time.
"I said, don't call me sir. Call me Morgan." He grinned at them. "I've met your parents. They don't smooch ass, so don't you start." He checked his notes again. "We've got two things on the agenda today. The first is offensive moves against the Clans, as in, where do we counterattack? The second is, countermeasures, so that when we do counterattack, we win." He punched a key on the holotank. A map of the Inner Sphere's coreward sector, where the Clans had struck, rezzed into life. The younger MechWarriors remembered their cartographical lessons at the Nagelring and at NAMA; there, a coreward map would consist of mostly yellow for the Federated Commonwealth, red for House Kurita's Draconis Combine, and in the middle the purple of the Free Rasalhague Republic. There were also realms on the Inner Sphere's Periphery, usually marked in gray, consisting of various independent republics, freeholds, and pirate havens.
The Periphery realms were gone. Moving into the larger realms was a multicolored wedge that had turned the roughly circular Inner Sphere into a fat crescent. Morgan pulled out a collapsible pointer and touched various points of the holomap. "Green for the Jade Falcons, brown for the Wolves, light blue for the Ghost Bears, and gray for the Smoke Jaguars. That's the four Clans we've identified. We don't know if there's more of them.
"So far, we've lost most of Trellshire, on the line Newtown Square-Blackjack-Twycross-Mozrije. Most of our losses have come from the Jade Falcons, though the Wolves have taken a hell of a bite out of us, too. Not as much as they've done to Rasalhague, though. They took Rasalhague, as you know. They didn't get the FRR's President or most of the Riksdat, but we think they may have captured or killed General Mansdotter, the Kungsarme commander. If that's true, I don't know how long the FRR's going to be able to hold. The Combine's taken a hit, too, mostly from the Bears and the Jaguars." Morgan leaned across the table, laying the pointer flat. "The Jags haven't had everything their own way, though. Apparently a lot of the Combine worlds overrun now have significant resistance movements. We've learned one of them on Turtle Bay managed to smuggle Hohiro Kurita offworld, after he was captured."
Sheila saw Victor blanch. He had come within a hairsbreadth of being captured himself, and it was unsettling to know that the Combine had nearly lost their heir. "Bully for them," Sheila said.
"Kind of. After Hohiro escaped, the Jaguars lost it. They razed most of Turtle Bay's cities to the ground, using orbital bombardment. Nuclear weapons."
"Holy shit," Max breathed. Nuclear weapons had not been used in the Inner Sphere since the First Succession War. They had been more or less banned by the Ares Conventions, and no nation had dared to use them since the horrors of the early Succession War period. The Clans, apparently, had no such qualms. "How are we going to stop that? If they're just going to nuke us if we win, what's the point?"
"We have to try," Morgan replied. "Let's toss out possibilities for a counterattack. Nothing huge; we're not planning Normandy here. Let's settle for Sicily."
"Well," Kai began, "there are several possibilities on a wide front like this. I'd say Blackjack. It's close to the front, we've got units pretty close already, and there's an active resistance on the world."
"Or so we've heard," Victor replied. "That was two weeks ago. The Jade Falcons might have already run them down."
Morgan Hasek-Davion held up a hand. "People, let's just get some ideas going. We can pick them apart later."
Victor spoke up. "I'd go with Twycross. There's a 'Mech factory there, and we need that back. The bad weather will give us a better chance against their range advantage. It's close to the front, and there's an active resistance there, too. Besides that, the Clan garrison is not likely to be enjoying their stay. It might lead to a drop in morale that we can exploit." There were a few nods around the table.
"Blackjack and Twycross then," Morgan said. "Anyone else?"
"Planting," Sheila said. She reached over and took Morgan's pointer. "Can I borrow this? Thanks. Planting's an agriculturally rich planet, lots of water—a good supply base. And if we take it, we'll be like a machinegun in a shopping cart."
"A what?" At least four of them asked the question.
"Able to point anywhere," Sheila explained. "It's like the central position in a Napoleonic sense. From there we can hit just about anywhere in Trellshire or the FRR."
"It's also a good distance behind the lines," Christian Kell said. "How do we keep it supplied?"
"Lots of ways. We can use uninhabited systems for supply caches and recharge points. We can use secondary operations to better secure lines of supply. For the time being, the force could live off the land. By being behind the lines, the Clans have to pull frontline units back to deal with us. That weakens their front line, and then we hit them there…it could have a snowball effect."
"I don't know about the living off the land," Victor said. "This isn't Napoleonic times. We can't live off the land anymore."
"I say we can," Sheila replied.
"You willing to risk your life on that?"
"I'm here, aren't I?"
Morgan got to his feet. "Sheila, you've made your point. Planting would be a good choice—for a future operation. You're planning for a big operation with plenty of follow-ups. Right now, we can't do it. We're still rushing units to just stabilize the front. Maybe I should have clarified this better. What we're going for is more a spoiling attack than anything else. Get them reacting to us for a change, disrupt the pace of the offensive. Plus we've got to build up some morale on the home front. We've still got reputable publications saying that we're under alien invasion here—real 'War of the Worlds' stuff."
"I see," Sheila said. She handed the pointer back to Morgan. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be. It's a good plan, and we'll definitely keep it in mind. Any other suggestions?" There were none. "All right. Blackjack and Twycross then."
"What about a simutaneous attack?" Christian suggested. "Hit both at the same time."
"Not a bad idea, but the Prince wants to try and keep a two to one advantage in numbers if we can. This one on one stuff is eating us up."
Victor leaned forward. "How about this, then—one of the attacks is a feint, basically a raid. The second is the real thing. The Clans won't know which is which, and by the time they get solid information, we can consolidate."
"I like that," Sheila said. "They also won't know if this is the beginning of a counteroffensive. I don't think the Clans have very good intelligence. They always ask who's defending the world. Now it could be that they just are trying to see if we're lying, but I think they actually don't know. If they really are from beyond the known Periphery, they won't have the same kind of intelligence nets that the Houses do."
"I think Sheila's right," Max spoke up, for the first time. "When we were on Rasalhague, we intercepted some of the Wolves' transmissions. They seemed geniunely surprised that the Sentinels were onplanet. They also seemed kind of miffed—like it was a private war between them and the Kungsarme, and we were interfering."
Victor snapped his fingers. "Yeah, we ran into something like that on Trellwan, too. They don't use pack tactics like we do. They pick individual targets. If they outnumber a force, the rest of them hang back until a target is available. Even when we gang up on a target, they don't. That's cost them a couple of 'Mechs. That's a huge advantage for us if we can exploit it. The trouble is, by the time we close in on them, they've already ripped us up at long range."
"The Wolves didn't do that on Rasalhague," Sheila said to Max. "They tried to gang-bang Mimi Stykkis." Her cheeks colored when she realized what she had said, but the others merely nodded, understanding the MechWarrior euphemism for pack tactics. Sheila realized she actually had forgotten the weight of brass in the room, and merely saw Hasek-Davion, Kell, and the others as fellow MechWarriors. It was almost as if they were talking over a beer in a bar.
"They might be adapting to us, too," Morgan said. "The Wolves seem to be a bit less traditional than the other Clans. God knows they certainly seem to be more willing to chance things. Rasalhague was a planet I wouldn't have wanted to try on." He leaned back in his chair. "This is good stuff. Let's get down to brass tacks. How do we win?" He looked over at Christian. "Chris, give the cafeteria a call. We're going to be here awhile."

Abadi leaves Safra National Bank for Morgan Stanley: sources
SAO PAULO Mauricio Abadi resigned on Friday as an executive vice president of Safra National Bank of New York to join Morgan Stanley & Co, three people familiar with the situation said.
NEW YORK New Jersey's U.S. prosecutor's office is picking up more insider trading cases, edging into territory that has historically been dominated by the federal prosecutors in New York City.
The most recent case was unveiled on Monday when prosecutors in Newark announced charges against six people - three of whom were friends from high school - for their alleged roles in an insider-trading ring. The six have been charged for passing tips to each other about healthcare companies which generated $1.4 million in illegal profits.
New Jersey's growing clout in law enforcement could lead to deeper involvement in bigger cases.
While they are loathe to admit it, U.S. prosecutors around the country compete for cases and develop expertise in pursuing certain types of criminal activity.
In addition to the reputations they have developed for success in certain areas, there are several ways a U.S. attorney's office can stake a claim to a case. Prosecutors have a good chance of establishing jurisdiction over a case if the alleged crime was committed in their territory or if one of the alleged criminals is based there.
They can also be pulled in by the Federal Bureau of Investigation if a specific FBI field office takes the lead on an investigation.
"New Jersey is New York's next door neighbor, and many of the U.S. attorneys working in the U.S. office in New Jersey have experience working with New York law firms and with highly sophisticated financial matters," said Alan Zegas, a criminal defense lawyer in Chatham, New Jersey.
Zegas added that the head prosecutor for the district, Paul Fishman, had spent more than 10 years leading the white collar crime practice for the law firm Friedman Kaplan in New York.
"He has significant training. He's also very involved generally with the Justice Department in Washington," Zegas said.
Fishman left Friedman Kaplan to become U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey in 2009.
Largely due to its role as an international marketplace, New York is also a center for the prosecution of white collar crime, and federal prosecutors there have close working relationships with lawyers at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which most often initiates insider trading investigations.
While much of the SEC's manpower is in New York, its regional Philadelphia office also plays a major role in ferreting out insider trading activity. Philadelphia's regional director and market abuse unit chief, Daniel Hawke, has built a sophisticated computer system to analyze stock trading patterns for evidence of insider trading.
"The way we work up insider trading cases involves close coordination with criminal authorities and we have been lucky enough to develop a great relationship with the District of New Jersey," said Colleen Lynch, assistant regional director in the SEC's market abuse unit in Philadelphia.
The SEC and the FBI have been engaged in a wide-ranging investigation into insider trading in healthcare and technology deals over the past five years.
The investigations have spurred multiple insider trading charges both in New York and in other parts of the country. The investigation is so large that one person familiar with it said New Jersey's involvement doesn't mean cases are being taken away from New York's Southern District; more insider trading cases are being unearthed than any one prosecutor's office can handle, the person said.
Thursday's case charged a ring of corporate executives and business owners with passing tips on healthcare deals to each other to reap more than $1.4 million in illegal profits.
Prosecutors charged John Lazorchak, Mark Cupo and Mark Foldy, who held positions at Celgene Corp, Sanofi S.A., and Stryker Corp, respectively, with running a network of inside information about their companies. They passed allegedly tips to two other men, Michael Castelli and Lawrence Grum, who traded on them and made "hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits," according to a press release issued by the prosecutors.
The five people in the network are all New Jersey residents. A sixth man, Michael Pendolino, who lives in Nashua, New Hampshire, is also accused of trading on tips from Lazorchak.
A seventh man was named in the civil suit filed by the SEC but not in the criminal suit.
The SEC filed its civil case in New Jersey in conjunction with the criminal proceedings the U.S. attorneys brought there.
"By funneling their inside information to a network of family and friends, the defendants and their associates reaped $1.4 million in profits at the expense of ordinary investors," Fishman said in a press release announcing the charges.
Lawyers for the men charged did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

This is a discussion on open carry at kansas parks within the Open Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I like to cc but there is a couple of places that i might oc at. Yesterday at my little girls tee ball ball park ...
I like to cc but there is a couple of places that i might oc at. Yesterday at my little girls tee ball ball park there is a sign at the door that says "no consealed weapons". Well if they dont want me to conseal it then i'll open carry it. I have tried to look up open carry laws in kansas and havent found too much on it but i do know it is lega in my county. I would just cc there but you cannot carry at sporting events i beleive. Any help will be welcome and i know were not laywers here.

It's my experience that in Kansas you need to check with the local law enforcement about that specific city's laws and ordinances. I do believe municipalities can preempt state laws there.
Do not OC in Wichita, but most of the state is OC friendly
MIA/POW , Bring em home or Send us back
KSCCW.com is growing... ... and ask the question... good place to also get clarification of the laws, other local info, etc.
OC is legal as far as the State laws.... but counties, cities, towns, etc. can regulate open carry. There is some debate going on between the cities and Atty Gen at this point, about what that means. The AG is saying... they cannot prohibit conceal carry licensees from open carry ... they can only regulate 'how' someone may carry open (due to changes in the law) , and the Cities are arguing the opposite. I wouldn't want to be the test case.
Do you have a CC license ? It doesn't sound like it, so asking, because you didn't say clearly one way or the other.
If you have a CC license.... "only" buildings can be posted with the AG approved signage to prohibit carrying. Sporting events are not illegal to carry at.... although you may see some signs at gates.... but ,it is not illegal unless it's a building that's posted. If you enter a building or what can be called a building to get in ... then they "got ya"... because you couldn't get in , without going thru the building. Again, "only" buildings can be posted, and parking garages don't qualify at all as a building.
Anyway, no where is illegal to carry concealed in Kansas if you have a CC permit (unless posted with the AG signage) except for the Governor's mansion & grounds, and on Federal Lands (including Corp of Engineer lakes or property). Watch OUT .. how it's worded, because people read it ... "these places are restricted " ........ but the wording right before that says .... "IF" conspiciously posted with the AG approved signage" . They kept the original wording, and then just added prior to that they are only restricted from conceal carry .. IF (BIG "IF") .... conspicously posted withe AG's approved signage.
Concealed Carry Statutes Regulations - Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt
So, for open carry ... it all depends upon the country or city. Topeka (state Capital) , if is legal to open carry there.

Chief Justice John Roberts : "I don't see how you can read Heller and not take away from it the notion that the Second Amendment...was extremely important to the framers in their view of what liberty meant."
ill have to join up at ksccw, but yes i have my Kansas concealed carry license. I am thinking i cannot carry there because of this wordage:
(7) any facility hosting an athletic event not related to or involving firearms which is sponsored by a private or public
elementary or secondary school or any private or public institution of postsecondary education;
The event is put on by HRC or Hays recreation Commission, i dont think they qualify as any of these but i didnt really want to push it. I have been planning on sending a email to the county attorney but i havent really had the time, but i shall do it tonight. Thanks for all replies.
edit looks like i cant email him, call or letter only.
Guns don't kill people, Guns save Lives.
If you want peace, prepare for war
Call the ks ag and ask them. They are very helpful.

Remington 870 loaded with low recoil buckshot? Yep, it is an excellent choice for home defense duty. The biggest thing I would recommend adding to your shotgun is a flashlight. Unless you keep your lights on 24/7 or wear night vision goggles, it's a necessity.
The side saddle is a good add-on as well. I've got a tac-star sidesaddle on my Mossberg 590, but I'm thinking about removing it. It does throw the balance of the gun off a little bit. If you want to keep extra ammo on your gun, you might want to look into a Speedfeed stock as well. They make at least two models that hold 4 extra shells inside the stock.

Purchasing a home with an FHA-insured loan allows the buyer to buy the home with a much lower down payment than the typical 20 percent down required by mortgage lenders. FHA loans are originated by mortgage lenders to meet the standards of the FHA insurance program. The trade off for the low down payment requirement of an FHA loan is some additional costs.
In January 2009, the minimum down payment for an FHA mortgage was changed from 3 percent to 3.5 percent. In early 2010, an added level of down payment requirement was established for prospective buyers with low credit scores. An FHA mortgage for a borrower with a credit score of less than 580 requires a 10 percent down payment.
Most home buyers who get an FHA-insured mortgage will qualify to pay the 3.5 percent down payment. The down payment amount is calculated by multiplying the home purchase price times 3.5 percent, or 0.035. For example, the required down payment on a $350,000 home would be $12,250. The home buyer would have to bring this amount plus any additional closing costs when the papers are signed to buy the house.
Buyers using an FHA-insured mortgage to buy a home are required to pay an upfront mortgage insurance premium, or MIP. In 2010, the MIP percentage was 2.25 percent of the loan amount. In our example of the $350,000 home, the loan amount would be $350,000 minus the $12,250 down payment, or $337,750. Multiplying 2.25 percent times this amount provides an MIP amount of $7,599. This insurance premium can be paid in cash by the buyer at closing or rolled into the mortgage loan amount. To keep the cash required to buy the house to a minimum, most buyers include the MIP in the mortgage loan.
The 3.5 percent down payment may not be the only costs to buy a home. A home purchase has additional costs called closing costs. Closing costs include loan origination points, appraisal costs and title insurance. FHA rules allow the seller to pay closing costs up to 3 percent of the purchase price of the home. The seller is not required to pay these costs, but it is something that can be negotiated into the purchase contract.
To receive an FHA-approved mortgage, a home buyer must meet the FHA qualifications and the loan amount must not exceed the limit set by the FHA for the area of the home. In the San Francisco Bay area, FHA loan limits are mostly at the FHA maximum of $729,750 in 2010. Some outlying areas like Vallejo and Sonoma County have lower limits for FHA loan amounts. If the loan amount will be at or below the FHA limit, the down payment will be 3.5 percent of the purchase price.

Let bygones not be gone
The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) is introducing a new master's of science in architectural conservation and design for the 2012-2013 academic year.
The aim of the programme is to train students to understand the issues involved in architectural heritage, to assess heritage value in a project, and to develop strategies for protecting, revitalising and redesigning heritage buildings.
'When we designed this programme, we wanted to provide architects who want to specialise in design work with a programme that would give them one more year of studying the current issues that confront architectural designers, when working on historic buildings or conservation projects,' says Maggie Hui, assistant professor at CUHK's School of Architecture.
'Students will be able to study the current practices used in professional practice,' she adds. 'Students will test a range of different approaches to architectural design within a conservation design studio context.
'They will need to read the historical value of a site and make decisions about whether to choose an adaptive reuse approach or design a new building to go alongside, and blend it with the existing historic structures.'
The programme will involve students in a range of learning experiences that include lectures, discussion forums, conservation design studios, field trips and desktop research.
'While assessment of students will largely be based on their conservation design studio work, the programme culminates in students preparing an academic design thesis,' explains Hui.
Students should be able to complete this programme full-time for one year, or part-time over two years.
Tuition is HK$100,000, and applicants are required to hold an undergraduate degree in a related field of study.

webdesignerart said
heheheheheh done through this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-post-type-permalinks/screenshots/
You dont even need a plugin in Wordpress its in Settings -> Permalink .. and this should work `/ category / postname .html` without the quotes
Why are you trying to do this? What advantage to you get by adding .HTML to permalinks? Seems a bit backwards to me!

If I'm not wrong, the .html extension should be slightly better for the SEO .
The engines should assign a better score to static pages. Using the .HTML you tell to google that your pages are static.
However I've never tried it in practice, only read somewhere

Sometimes leaders get to stand in the lime light, marching forward in a triumphant pursuit of excellence and performance. Sometimes leadership requires standing in the shadows to support those closest to you.
Leadership is about influence and accomplishing tasks while utilizing the gifts of those you lead. This should look in part, as if the leader is serving those around them.
One of the greatest lessons I have learned on leadership and one of the greatest areas of accountability for myself is this:
Leaders set the example of ideal."- Paul Jolicoeur Tweet this!
When people look at you, they are seeing the template of what is expected of them. Be the template you want to see reproduced.
When I am looking to recruit new leaders into the areas I manage I ask myself a simple question. Would I want the people this person leads to be just like them?
If the answer is yes, then we move on. If the answer is no, we have a red flag.
This is not about perfection. No one is perfect and we can't wait around to do anything until someone is.
With that in mind, here are 4 areas in which every leader should set the example in to their team.
1. Attitude
If you want positive team members that are looking for innovative ways to solve problems and enjoy what they do and who they do it with, start with you.
Your attitude is contagious, what do you want your team to catch?
You want them to stay positive and encouraging, not negative and destructive. Display the attitude you expect from them.
2. Personal Discipline
Stagnant water begins to stink. It gradually becomes unusable. A team member that stops growing will become marginalized, demoralized and eventually unusable.
Look for ways to help your team members grow.
Be a lifelong learner yourself, read books, listen to podcasts, take classes and attend conferences. Start by setting some goals for your year. We are all motivated by the growth we see in others.
Be a motivating force for your team.
When they see you making the effort to learn and become a better you, they will be challenged to do the same.
3. Time Management
You should be showing up on time and utilizing your time well. When you spend too much time at work doing things that are not work related, your team will follow suit. You will have given them permission to waste time.
If they see you working hard, staying focused and managing your time well, you will motivate them to do the same.
4. Work Ethic
You expect those that report to you to get their work done. You want them to put their best effort into everything they do.
We expect others to give their best effort, that is why you recruited them and want to work with them.
It will be very difficult for them to perform like this if they don't see you doing the same. If you aren't working hard you will debilitate your team and bring their work ethic down.
We can only expect from others, what we ourselves are willing to model.
Whatever standard you set will become their highest standard. Leadership is a gift and we must steward it well.
In what other areas do you believe a leader should be the example of ideal?

Ebay gauges...
I want gauges, boost, afr and oil pressure but think these are kind of carpy.
though for 30 bucks plus shipping meh I don't like that the afr gauge says rich, optimal, lean instead of numbers so common sense says I probably wont get that gauge from them but 30 for the pod alone sound ok?
oops I guess I can't read they are 130 well is that still a good price?

I had abdominal smart lip0 done Sept 09...almost a year ago. The area around my belly button is still quite large as though it was totally missed. My left side is uneven from the right.
Overall...I am happy with my results as it is quite an improvement; however, the doctor did offer to do 4 rounds of BBL laser therapy to see if it would reduce the larger area...it has not. Additionally, he agreed that it is uneven.
He said there would be no charge to correct it. Then I find out he is going to charge me $2,500 for the use of the room, a tech, the equipment etc... When I met with the financial person, she said "we want to make you happy so how about $1,500. I guess I am looking for feedback on what other folks have found who need a touch up.

- Highlanders v Bulls
- Reds v Brumbies
- Chiefs v Rebels
- Force v Waratahs
- Cheetahs v Crusaders
- Lions v Sharks
Ellis Park, Johannesburg, Sunday 3.10am
Last meeting: Round 4 2014 - Sharks 37 bt Lions 23 at Growthpoint Kings Park
Head-to-head: Played 19, Lions 3 Sharks 14, drawn 2
In Johannesburg: Played 9, Lions 2 Sharks 5, drawn 2
Referee: Craig Joubert (RSA)
TV: Live, FoxSports 2
Ladbrokes: Lions $3.50, Sharks $1.39
Betfair: Lions $3.50, Sharks $1.26
Richard Shute writes: The Lions have had mixed results this season, but have only gone home empty-handed on three occasions. They were soundly beaten by a resurgent Crusaders in front of their home crowd, and will be looking to restore some pride against their peers. Their forwards did not cover themselves in glory last week, and they will be looking for a big improvement in their lineout and breakdown work. The irresistible Sharks should offer a repeat of their comfortable round 4 win.
AAP writes: While the Lions are only just outside the top six, they were extremely disappointing in their 28-7 loss to the Crusaders last week. Lions coach Johan Ackermann is not expected to wield the axe, yet his side face a huge task of avoiding back-to-back home losses when they host the Jake White-coached Sharks. The Sharks are well-rested after their second bye of the season, which followed a convincing win over the Waratahs, and the Durban franchise have well and truly earned their top spot on the ladder approaching the season's halfway mark. Expect a big one from winger Odwa Ndungane, who will be playing his 100th game for the Sharks.
SHARKS: Lwazi Mvovo, Odwa Ndungane, S'bura Sithole, Frans Steyn, JP Pietersen, Fred Zeilinga, Charl McLeod , Ryan Kankowski, Jean Deysel, Marcell Coetzee, Stephan Lewies, Willem Alberts, Jannie du Plessis, bismarck du Plessis ©, Tendai Mtawarira.

Raising Independent Children
Raising independent children isn't about making them do something they think they cant. It's about showing them how they can and giving them the confidence to experience it slowly. Kids will continue to want more independence when they believe in themselves. Our goals are to give them the proper tools and guidance. It's dangerous to just assume they are ready for all forms of independence bc their friends might be. You decide which ones are important and take one at a time so a solid foundation of goals and expectations are laid out. #parenting #lifeskills

Do you feel empowered to live your life from your heart? It is where our love lives and grows, it is where our truth can ignite our purpose, it is where our passion for life propels us forward. When it gets hard and when it gets too uncomfortable is when it is most important to listen in, take note, and surround yourself with those who will want you to speak and live from your heart. Your heart is not wasting your time, it is trying to empower you.

" When you're worried and you can sleep, just count your blessings instead of sheep, and you'll fall asleep counting your blessing."
White Christmas with Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney...I love that scene. I'm fortunate to have watched it a thousand times. That song really helps bring me back to grace when I've fallen from it.
Admit it, we all fall from time to time. No matter how much we know or what we believe or how hard we try...we can fall.
I often think about the great ones from Mother Theresa, the Dalai Lama, and Mahatma Gandhi, to Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, and every other person who faced great obstacles and broke through them by helping others.
Here we are in our daily lives facing obstacles. Some are not so bad. It just seems that way in our perspective. Yet, other times the obstacles are real threats and that's when we really have to dig deep down and find out what we are made of. Sometimes it's easy to know on the surface what it is you have to do, but deep down how do you find the "how to do it"?
The answer is simple but not easy. Such is nature and life itself. Everything in existence craves balance. From the infinite universe, to this very planet, to the tinest particles like atoms...everything needs balance. Why would an atom explode, or a hurricane begin, or an earthquake happen? What is the purpose of life and death? The answer is simply balance. When out of balance chaos begins in order to restore that balance. It's kind of an abstract and matter of fact way of thinking about it but I assure you it makes sense.
So, what are the things you feel when you are out of balance? Anger, frustration, WORRY...all products of fear. What do you do when you're out of balance? Well you are no different than the world you exist in. You can explode in a rage or outburst. You can even implode, holding it all in until your health deteriorates. Believe it or not you are craving balance.
Now, what can you do to restore balance without exploding or imploding? Maybe you can show mother nature something by leading by example. ..try this...
1. Take a breathe. Take in all the good air you can muster. Here's the sneaky part...Exhale all the garbage you are holding onto inside.
2. COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS. Focus on the great things you have in this very moment. Anything you can say thank you for, even if it is just that you noticed a beautiful tree, appreciate it. Look for the blessings. Seek and ye shall find.
3. Give something, anything. If all you can give is a smile then you go out there and give all the smiles you can to anyone and everyone you can. You never know who's day you'll make. I guarantee your smile will be someone else's step 2 from this list.
4. Play songs that uplift your spirit. No matter how horrible we feel you know that when a sweet sound touches those ears you're forced to do step 3 and smile. Warning...this one may make you want to move or sing...whoa!!! Imagine that..giving the gift of song and dance to someone and you BOTH get to enjoy it. WOW what a world.
Ok look, pity parties are the worst. Yea it's okay to need one once and a while but don't stay too long. The company there is miserable. Sometimes you just have to sing that tune, give a smile, give thanks, and breathe through it. Before you know it someone will be writing a blog and putting your name in it under inspiring people who triumphed. Heck, write one about yourself. You deserve it.
"When my bank roll is getting small, I think of when I had none at all, and I fall asleep counting my blessings."
Beach, BBQ & BUNS!
After a long day of teaching a full days worth of LIFiTmoms & LIFiTkids fitness classes, I got a call from my mom saying, she was going to help me out and pick up my daughter from school and then come over. I quickly realized, I have nothing already made for dinner and needed to prepare something for a few people who were coming over. It was one of our very first hot days and after a whole winter long indoor board-making pinterest adventure, I was itching to break into my BBQ and get my creative flow going. It was just before memorial day and I knew all my 21dayfix challenger clients would also be up against some of the BBQ survival challenges we all face. What do I eat at a BBQ and what can I bring? So I put myself to the test. I broke out my skewers, grabbed all my fruits, veggies, protein, healthy fats, carbs, threw them on the counter and was on my way to making a FULL MEAL and a side kick glass of wine to assist!
All set to go...
cutting board....check
lots of fun, clean options to eat...check
I wasn't too worried about the prep work, cause I knew my daughter might enjoy sliding those cubed up fruits and veggies onto the stick and the best part...NO CLEAN UP! I turned on the gas and became a grilling mama on a mission. In just 30-45 minutes...dinner was served. I knew it was a hit, when everyone was trying to figure out which skewer to grab first and the silence that took over once everyone started picking, chewing and or just diving in and pulling them apart. Here is what I used for my super fast, fun, skewer happy BBQ party. I even had left overs for the next day!
Veggies: zucchini, bell peppers, portabella mushrooms
Fruit: pineapple, peaches, plums
Protein: chicken/beef/seafood/tofu
Carbs: corn, sweet potato, white potato
Fats: Avocado, Hummus
Oils: Olive oil, coconut oil
Enjoy, have fun and same me some left overs! For those who would like more information about our next BEACH, BBQ and BUNS challenge, please RSVP here and I will contact you with more details.
10 BBQ Sabotage Survival Tips!
Here's my BBQ sabotage survival guide: Its time to spend more time having fun outside and lots of our moms are in need for clean eating tips & #21dayfix friendly BBQ success.
1) Bring you're own favorite snacks, dish, or veggies to share and help others see how clean eating can be delicious too. (i.e. asian coleslaw is always a hit)
2) Plate your food yourself with all the healthier options first, and then decide if the non-clean foods are worth it. You may also plan ahead knowing you've got a BBQ and replace your "yellow" or reward for this event.
3) Check out my pinterest board ideas. There are lots of skewer options and you can easily incorporate almost all the colors/ food groups (i.e. zucchini, pineapple, chicken/beef/seafood/tofu/seitan, sweet potato, Avocado, oil & seasoning =G, P, R, Y, B, O, spoon)
4) Bring a bottle of water and make it fun to drink (infuse with watermelon, fruit or an extract you like)
5) Drink your Shakeology prior to the BBQ so you don't feel starved or have your typical BBQ cravings for the snacks and chips that you'll often be surrounded by.
6) EAT - Use a small plate & know your plated portions and start to eye ball how much of each you should plate. Don't make yourself a target by not eating. People always notice the person at a BBQ not eating anything at all.
7) DON'T PILE ON THE FOOD just because everyone is or you think you'll feed your kids from the same plate. Make your kids a separate plate!
8) Help to clean up, so that the food doesn't stare you in the face the whole time.
9) Don't talk about how you're on a meal plan and don't use the word DIET, cause this is a lifestyle eating plan! This is a time to enjoy your family and friends and help them see that you are not focused on what you can not do, but what you are doing! DO TALK ABOUT your commitment to changing your eating habits and creating a cleaner lifestyle! You will help someone around you learn something new and that is a beautiful gift to share!
10) HAVE FUN! Enjoy your time and if that includes alcohol...CHEERS! Know your limits, drink a cup of water for every alcoholic drink you consume. This will help you keep away from snacking and also prevent you from drinking too much alcohol. Always BE SAFE and enjoy your time.
Enjoy the fun BBQ season and thanks for reading! Would love your ideas and comments too.
In Stride,
Vegan Portabella BURGERS
I was getting kinda bored with my meals so I decided to do the pinterest browse and stumbled on this awesome chunky portabella veggie burgers from The kitchen Whisperer, which I said...YUMMERS, I gotta try this but with my own flaired style!
3 cups portabella mushrooms, cubed
2 cups organic canned Red Kidney beans (you can use black beans too)
2 cups minced broccoli, fresh
1 cup minced cauliflower, fresh
1/2 cup red onion, minced
egg replacement mixture = 3 eggs
1/2 cup quinoa (I always have some already made in the fridge)
1/2 cup whole wheat matzoh meal (or bread crumbs of choice)
seasonings - cumin, curry, paprika, turmeric, ginger (add a steak seasoning if you prefer)
2 tbl minced garlic
3/4 cup of Daiya jack cheese, minced
*I didn't, but the original recipe called for Montreal steak seasoning and worcestershire sauce
1. large bowl mash up half the beans
2. add all veggies and rest of the beans and seasoning
3. mix until coated
4. add egg replacement, Daiya cheese and matzoh meal
5. scoop mixture into palms, press firmly together to make burgers. they need extra pressure to keep them solid.
6. Heat up coconut oil in skillet and cook each side until brown.
You can serve with hummus, guacamole or steak sauce. Enjoy!
What Machine Are You?
How we take care of ourselves is a direct correlation to how much we can give of ourselves. Just because we are caregivers to others does not mean we are at our full potential to be caring best for them. What I mean is we must operate and care for our ourselves in the most optimal way possible in order to maximize how much we can give of ourselves to others. For example picture yourself as a Maserati. if you leave that Maserati in a garage (ie no exercise) and give it the least optimal fuel (ie nutrition).... are you really able to maximize that amazing machines potential? If our kids & loved ones are our passengers...Are you caring for your machine to live your fullest potential each day? Where can you give more to YOU?

Truth & Joy
By: Tiffany Carrasquillo (Tiffany is one of our awesome instructors and we are thrilled to have her as a key contributor to our blog)
(Metaphorical short story based on a quote by a Poet named Hafiz)
Nature gave birth to twin girls. She was wise in carefully selecting her daughter's names. Nature knew that the name would be a label that her daughters would live up to. She chose to name one child Truth and the other Joy. Joy noticed while growing up that people seemed to disregard her sister Truth. Most people were not fond of her. Although it never seemed to bother Truth, Joy began to worry about her own future. She often wondered, "What would happen if people disregarded me?" As it so happens, as Joy lost her baby face and grew into a woman, people began to turn their backs on her.
Joy became obsessed with this fear and tried to avoid the rejection. She studied people as often as she could and one day she stumbled upon a book that promised she would never be rejected. This book titled "The Book of Should" explained to her everything she needed to do in order to keep the attention of people. Truth expressed her opinion very clearly. She explained that no book would have all the answers and that people could not make her happy. In fact it was painly unfair for Joy to put that responsibility on people. Joy looked upon Truth with pity because Truth never had many friends. She didn't take her sisters opinion into consideration. After all what would someone who was alone most of the time know about people and their nature.
Soon after she began reading, Joy started to understand the books first message. Chapter one, You should be like people and you should be significantly bigger to be noticed. Joy sat and observed people as they went about their day. She noticed that one thing most people had in common was doubt. In order to connect with people Joy decided to call herself Doubt. She figured this would make her more like people and, after all, a five letter name was bigger than a three letter one. Almost immediately it began to work. People saw Doubt but they rarely talked about her. It was like they had a sense she was there but refused to see her. There was something bigger hiding right in front of Doubt.
Chapter two, You should be able to see and do what they want you to do. At first Doubt couldn't see it. She did not know what was blocking her. What was it that people put in her way? Again she studied people. She looked at their faces and there was the answer. Frowning faces, red faces, sharp brows, twitching faces, it was very clear she picked the wrong name for herself. It seemed that people wanted something else. She introduced herself as Anger. Anger showed up front and foremost shadowing Doubt. This time it was working beautifully. The attention Anger got was immense. People noticed Anger. They connected with her. They even rewarded her. Yet something else was getting even more attention than her. It was something much bigger. Something was wrong and Anger would not stand for this bigger thing to steal her spotlight.
Chapter three, You should not let anything be better than you. What did this mean? What was better than Anger? Everyone allowed Anger into their life. What was this thing that was overshadowing Anger? Anger now listened to the words people spoke. They often compared themselves to others. Most of the comparisons were over what one had that the other didn't. Anger heard a lot of envy, but envy was just a weak four letter name. She needed much bigger. She got it, Jealousy. Jealousy was huge. What an impact it would have. As Jealously she made much more connections. Not only did people actually feel her, they connected with each other because of her. She was now bringing people together. Jealousy assumed she could put the book down now but there was yet something with greater power and greater attention than Jealousy could produce. Something was feeding Jealousy. She didn't want to just have the power that fed her, she wanted to be it.
Chapter four, You should never seek Truth. Jealousy was shocked to see her sister's name in the book, although, she was secretly pleased at the context. Now knowing that Doubt was inferior to Anger and Anger inferior to her, what could Truth have to do with this? What was opposite of Truth? A lie or a fib would be too small. Misled is not good enough but perhaps Ignorance? Yes, Ignorance was a bit larger than Jealousy and impacted almost every person alive. This had to be it. She was so confident this time that she proclaimed it in loud words to the world. "I AM IGNORANCE!" People began to flock to her embrace, feeling safe in her presence. They all felt a place of belonging with her. Ignorance was in bliss for a short time. There were a few people who left Ignorance behind. It began to hurt her. She didn't understand this pain. What was it?
Chapter five, You should always hold on tight and NEVER let anything go. Ignorance knew exactly what this meant. She called out to those who left her, "I am Attachment!" They ignored her. She cried out again, "Didn't you hear me? I am Attachment!" They looked at her empathically but one by one continued to walk away. Attachment sat alone in hysteria. She frantically double checked her book. Ran through the names in her mind, Doubt, Anger, Jealousy, Ignorance, Attachment. Not one person stayed by her side.
She realized she was now alone, or was she? She turned around her and noticed two people standing behind her. One a familiar face, the other she had not met. Truth spoke first, "Hello sister, what name are you going by today?"
"I don't know. I'm not sure what to call myself."
"May I introduce you to my husband, and can I use your real name?"
"Joy, this is my husband, Love. Love, this is my sister, Joy."
"You are married?"
"Yes, Joy. All this time while you were seeking approval, I found Love and married him."
In that moment Joy realized what she had done. She had denied herself of her true nature. She hugged her sister and her sister's husband and threw that awful book behind her.
"Ow!" a man yelled.
Joy gasped, "Oh sir I am so, so sorry, are you ok?"
The man laughed and said, "It's going to take more than that to knock me down. By the way I am Happiness, and you are?'
"Joy, my name is Joy."
His eye lit up with excitement, "I have seen Doubt, Anger, Jealousy, Ignorance, and Attachment, but ever since you were born and I heard your name, I have been running through the streets trying to find you Joy."
And so Happiness found Joy.
"Ever since Happiness heard your name it's been running through the streets trying to find you." - Hafiz

: Suffering from Rat Nests Please help!
I have 2c hair type -- So I believe. I have been suffering for months from large rat nest knots that magically appear out of no where and turning my hair into a hot mess. I was told by one hair dresser it was because I needed a hair cut, yet when I got my hair cut, my hair continued to knot up. I went to a Devacurl hair specialist, and she told me I needed more moisture -- Great. So I proceeded at add more moisture to my hair, yet when I go to comb it out it still proceeds to be a big mess of a blob of hair.
Today after I put Deep conditioner in my hair, I let it sit for quite some time before I tried to comb it out. Yes, it was still a big blob, and right then and there I almost took the scissors to my hair and lopped it all off.
I love my hair, but enough is enough.
What am I doing wrong? After I combed my hair today, I put more deep conditioner in it, and let ti sit. I intend on washing it out again in 30 minutes.

Has any one had a problem with the Cell module all sudden failing to respond. If I let it run for a while and while doing so I send data (via GPRS IP) about every 3 minutes or so it all the sudden just stops responding like it locked up. I put some code in my program to restart the GSM stack and it works for a while longer then it stops responding again…
Anyone else seen this issue?
here is the link I used that required code change:
kurg thanks for posting. I must have stumbled across and old link because I was having the same problem until I fixed the code…

|Brief Summary
|Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a prolonged prodromal phase before the stage of dementia. Subtle executive cognitive function deficits can be detected at this early pre-dementia phase, more than 10 years before dementia. Among them, the digit symbol substitution task (DSST) has been shown to be altered very early, up to 13 years before dementia. This test, as many others executive function tests, requires a fine control of visuomotor coordination. Like executive functions, eye movements, particularly voluntary-guided saccades, are under the control of the frontal lobe and fronto-parietal networks. Previous studies have shown a deterioration of voluntary saccades in AD using various paradigms. There are no data in prodromal AD, although the pathological process of the disease affects very early brain structures implicated in saccades execution (eg. caudate nucleus and pre-cuneus).

Salmonella Testing Provides Solutions to Recent HVP Scare
EMSL Analytical provides food pathogen testing services for manufacturers, distributors and the general public.
HVP is a common flavor enhancer that is used in numerous processed foods. According to a FDA release, "The company is recalling all hydrolyzed vegetable protein in powder and paste form that it has produced since Sept. 17, 2009." It continues, "This situation clearly underscores the need for new food safety legislation to equip FDA with the tools we need to prevent contamination,"
Salmonella is a Gram-negative bacterium that is found worldwide in warm and cold-blooded animals, including humans. Infections from the bacteria can be caused by eating contaminated foods and by transmission from animals to humans. According to some reports, the Salmonella from the HVP in question could affect thousands of food products.
EMSL Analytical, one of the nation's largest food pathogen testing laboratories, has a long history of testing for Salmonella and other dangerous pathogens. "So far the foods that have been recalled include dips, soups, chips and a host of other processed foods," reported Joe Frasca, Senior Vice President at EMSL. "Food manufacturers, distributors and citizens can have any questionable food products tested by one of EMSL's state-of-the-
Exposure to Salmonella can cause diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps within 12 to 72 hours of exposure. The infection, known as Salmonellosis, typically lasts from 4 to 7 days. Some infected people require hospitalization and there is the possibility that the infection can spread from the intestines into the blood stream and beyond.

Your publication of the article ("All for one or one for all?", political analysis, 23 May) by Júlia Lakatos from the "Centre for Fair Political Analysis" makes me wonder if you have been receiving threats from the Media Council. I have no idea who the Centre for Fair Political Analysis are, but can only imagine that they must be some part of the Fidesz propaganda machine.
Lakatos argues that the actions of the Orbán government have now been vindicated by the elections in Greece and France – those countries are now turning against austerity, just as Orbán did in 2010. The Greeks have chosen to leave the euro instead of staying in it, Europe is in a mess and we have returned to a situation of each country to their own.
Under such a situation (she argues) the Orbán government has been right to pursue a tax on banks, which other countries have followed (according to Lakatos) and nationalisation of the private pensions, which is not unprecedented. While the EU has been upset by these decisions, the government's policy of "going it alone" will prove to be correct, she argues.
Please let me offer a more accurate assessment of Orbán's "alternative policies".
While in opposition, Mr Orbán promised a flat rate tax, so when he came to power he had to deliver. He soon discovered that such a low tax was unsustainable, given the state of the public finances. Rather than admit this, and risk losing his popularity, he found other ways to raise money.
First the multinationals. Most Fidesz supporters fear foreigners, so what better way to please them than to tax the bastards. Bound to be popular, and raise some money. The problem is these nasty foreigners provide a lot of much-needed capital, and many jobs, and if you tax them too much they will simply go elsewhere.
The "nationalisation" of private pensions (although a more accurate word would be theft) simply means that the government is saving a huge pension liability for another generation to pay.
"It appears that however rocky the road has been, in the long term the government's strategy of 'going it alone' is paying off," argues Lakatos. Really? While foreign investment to the rest of Central Europe is increasing, foreign capital flows into Hungary are now below their 1997 level. In the rest of Central Europe, bank lending is back to what it was before the crisis while in Hungary it is at 83 per cent of the pre-crisis levels and falling.
I am sure that Hungarians of my generation will not thank Mr Orbán when they retire without a pension. And I am sure that Hungarians of my children's generation will not thank Mr Orbán when they have to go abroad to find work. Still, at least there won't be any nasty multinationals in the country.
Mr Orbán's "alternative policies" do not represent an intelligent, well-thought-out challenge to orthodox economic thinking. They represent the actions of a nationalist government that has lost control of the economy.
While a small minority of the Hungarian electorate may "buy" these Alice in Wonderland theories about the great Orbán government, I believe that most of the readers of The Budapest Times are probably more intelligent than to swallow such nonsense, and I sincerely hope that we will not have to read more such rubbish in The Budapest Times.

This past Wednesday, Cisco announced it had upgraded its software and launched guidelines for integrating wired and wireless security, called the Cisco Secure Wireless Solution. This software will be available to any customer with current Cisco software and give them the option to build a security architecture or utilize the help of Cisco's services organization.
This new idea will allow wireless security and wired security in general to work together with a single directory of users to strengthen security on the network.
As it is, enterprises can already utilize wireless devices with Cisco's security system, but clients must be authorized and free from threats before they are allowed to access the network. Now with the integration of wired and wireless security, clients are already authorized and free from threats before accessing.
The new software architecture includes Cisco's NAC, ASA firewall, Cisco Security Agent, Cisco IPS, Cisco Secure ACS and Cisco Services Client.

When the press plays dumb about itself
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
Buried deep down in a recent Politico article about budget wrangling, was this passage, which attempted to put the current omnibus bill in context [emphasis added]:
The situation is very similar to early 2003, when Republicans and the Bush administration pushed through a nearly $400 billion package after the budget process had collapsed amid partisan fighting the prior year. Filling almost 1,160 pages, that measure was even more complex, including Medicare and farm-disaster spending as well as appropriations. But it moved through the Senate in about six days, and after a quick conference with the House it was signed by Bush.
Looking back, the 2003 debate was much more substantive and focused on major accounts within the bill, rather than on the spending earmarks. By comparison, the current measure devotes substantially less money to earmarks, but that issue has come to dominate the politics so much that it has dwarfed most other issues in the six days of debate.
For some reason this spending bill was dominated by the issue of earmarks--it "dwarfed most other issues"-- as compared to Bush's 2003 spending bill. Politico got that point right. But it played dumb about the role the press played in making that a fact. It played dumb about the fact that earmarks dominated the debate because the GOP wanted them to, and the press eagerly complied.

Below is the equipment currently used by the Philadelphia Ghostbusters. We are always modifying our props and adding new ones so check back soon. If you are interested in making your own Ghostbusting equipment then check out our Links page.
Proton Pack:
The most notable piece of equipment used by the Ghostbusters. The proton pack generates an Ion Stream that is projected in order to confine the ghost in order to aid in entrapment.
Ecto Goggles:
Most notably used by Dr. Raymond Stantz, the ecto goggles are modified military night vision goggles used to track and trace the movements of ectoplasmic entities.
Psychokinetic Energy Meter (PKE Meter):
This is our quickly made version of a PKE meter. This device is used to test levels of paranormal energy in order for determining the class of ectoplasmic entities.
A typical Ghostbusters uniform is fully equipped like this. Khaki flight suit with name patch and no ghost logo on right shoulder, elbow pads, black boots, and a military pistol belt equipped for most of your paranormal elimination needs including but not limited to filter hose, Etheric Plane monitoring system, ecto trap, and snazzy useless key chain.

Well you guys all nailed it.
The main thing you guys have to figure out is each design has its "inherent strengths" and its personal strengths with its owners/designers.
Inherent strengths are the facts.........#1 style with spread out loops is thinner and more stable by design! Cant be denied.
Personal strengths are just like Gary and the others commenting on how the holster works for "THEM". My Pro is a Summer Special style Wrap around design with a clip/loop over the gun. Its much more convenient than the first style, but not quite as comfortable.
All have strengths and weakness's.....both inherent and personal.
Shoot well.
