20) SMEAR: Jennings "Personally Pushed Books That Encouraged Children to Meet Adults at Gay Bars For Sex" [20]
21) CLAIM: Jennings is the "Safe Schools Czar" [21]
CLAIM: MassResistance is a legitimate source for Jennings information
REALITY: MassResistance is an anti-gay "hate group." Accuracy in Media pointed readers [22] to the website of the Massachusetts-based anti-gay group MassResistance to get "the facts on Jennings," stating that the group's longtime leader Brian Camenker "has covered the scandal of Obama's appointment of Jennings in much detail." Many right-wing outlets have relied [23] on the group's false or misleading claims about Jennings in attacking him. MassResistance has been labeled a "hate group" by the Southern Poverty Law Center; even conservative commentator Dean Barnett has stated [24] that the organization "verges on being a hate group." Camenker himself reportedly denied that gays and lesbians were targeted during the Holocaust and has compared the gay rights movement to the Nazis.
CLAIM: Right-wing attacks on Jennings are not anti-gay
REALITY: Right-wing media unleashed anti-gay rhetoric in attacks on Jennings. In their attacks on Jennings, numerous conservative media figures have resorted [25] to thinly veiled homophobic appeals to paint Jennings, who is gay, as a "radical" "gay activist" with an "agenda" of "promoting homosexuality in schools," and have misrepresented or distorted Jennings' previous comments about religion and tolerance. Moreover, in a blatant appeal to homophobia, the right-wing media have termed a series of allegations "Fistgate," even though several of those allegations have little or nothing to do with the sexual practice of fisting -- or, for that matter, with Jennings himself.
SMEAR: Jennings failed to report "statutory rape" of student
REALITY: Student was at least 16 -- the legal age of consent -- when he spoke to Jennings. Numerous right-wing and Fox News media figures advanced the falsehood [26] that Jennings, in the words of Fox News host Bill Hemmer, knew of a "statutory rape" and "never reported it," based on Jennings' past statements about advice he gave to a student who told him about his relationship with an older man when Jennings was a high school teacher in the late 1980s. In fact, a 2004 letter [27] from Jennings' attorney, as well as a statement [28] from the former student and his Massachusetts driver's license [29] definitively show that he was at least 16 -- the legal age of consent in Massachusetts -- when he approached Jennings.
SMEAR: Jennings "urged" student to "further the relationship" with "older man ... forcing his way" on him and to "keep quiet"
REALITY: No evidence supports these claims. WorldNetDaily, in at least [30] four [31] separate articles, falsely claimed that Jennings "counseled a 15-year-old student to keep quiet about being seduced by an older man." Likewise, Limbaugh accused [32] Jennings of having "encouraged" and "facilitated the relationship," and claimed [33] that he "urged" the "15-year-old" to "further the relationship" with "older man ... forcing his way" on him. In fact, nothing in Jennings' 2000 speech for the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, his 1994 book, or the student's own statement in any way suggests [34] that the student told Jennings that someone was "forcing his way on" him or that Jennings "urged" the student to "further the relationship," nor do they support the claim [30] that Jennings told the student to "keep quiet."
SMEAR: Jennings advocated for or supports NAMBLA
REALITY: Jennings once praised Hay for his pioneering gay civil rights work. Right-wing media sources including The Washington Examiner [35], The Fox Nation [35], The Washington Times [36], Sean Hannity [37], Rush Limbaugh [38], and Karl Rove [39], have linked Jennings to the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) based on a 1997 speech in which Jennings praised gay rights activist Harry Hay. But like many obituaries written about Hay upon his death in 2002, Jennings was touting [35] Hay as a gay civil rights pioneer for his role in helping start "the first ongoing gay rights groups in America" in 1948, and Jennings' comments had nothing to do with NAMBLA.
SMEAR: Jennings' ties to anti-AIDS group disqualify him from public service
REALITY: Group credited with improving awareness, treatment of disease. Hannity and The Washington Times editorial board have insisted [40] that Jennings' past involvement with the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) somehow disqualifies him from serving in the Obama administration. But such arguments are absurd, given that ACT UP, an anti-AIDS activist organization, has been credited with both creating awareness of the AIDS epidemic in America and facilitating more effective treatment of the disease. For example, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases reportedly stated [40] that ACT UP played "a significant role in the whole idea of expanded access to experimental drugs."
SMEAR: Jennings is linked to an "Anti-Christian Art Porn Exhibit"
REALITY: Exhibit actually features "posters, stickers, and other visual media" used by ACT UP's AIDS activists. Right-wing web sites attempted to smear [40] Jennings by claiming that he, in the words of Gateway Pundit, "funded a pornographic anti-Christian art show." In fact, Jennings is listed [41] on a Harvard Art Museum press release [42] as providing a gift to the museum's exhibit ACT UP New York: Activism, Art, and the AIDS Crisis, 1987-1993. According to the release, the exhibit includes "over 70 politically-charged posters, stickers, and other visual media that emerged during a pivotal moment of AIDS activism in New York City" and "chronicles New York's AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) through an examination of compelling graphics created by various artist collectives that populated the group."
SMEAR: Jennings promoted "Child Porn in the Classroom"
REALITY: Jennings' group recommended adults review books for suitability. Conservative blogs and The Washington Times editorial board [43] have claimed [44] that Jennings is unfit as "Safe Schools Czar" because he supposedly promoted "child porn" by allowing GLSEN to recommend for students in grades 7-12 books that included sexually explicit content. The organization, however, specifically stated on its book list website that "some titles for adolescent readers contain mature themes" and recommended that "adults selecting books for youth review content for suitability"; further, schools regularly teach books that contain sexually explicit material. In a December 11 statement [45], Martin Garnar, chair of the American Library Association's Intellectual Freedom Committee, said: "Though Jennings' and GLSEN's critics claim to be upholding American morals and values by condemning the GLSEN book list, they are actually undermining the values of tolerance, free inquiry, and self-determination that inform and sustain our democratic way of life in the United States."
SMEAR: Jennings is "linked to shocking teen sex talk"
REALITY: Jennings criticized content of state employees' workshop at GLSEN/Boston conference. Several right-wing [46] media outlets [47] have claimed that Jennings is, in the words of Fox Nation, "linked to shocking teen sex talk," referring to a recorded exchange that occurred during a "Queer Sex and Sexuality" workshop during a 2000 conference sponsored by the Boston branch of GLSEN. In fact, Jennings reportedly criticized [46] some of the workshop's content when the recordings were first released in 2000, and the people involved in conducting the controversial discussion were state employees and contractors, not GLSEN employees.
SMEAR: Jennings knew the content of "sex talk" workshop in advance
REALITY: Critics have presented no credible evidence that Jennings knew the specific contents of the workshop in advance. WorldNetDaily [48] and Gateway Pundit's Jim Hoft [49] have both claimed that Jennings knew about the controversial workshop's contents ahead of time, citing a MassResistance blog post [50] which claims, "Of course Jennings and the Massachusetts Department of Education knew beforehand what the 'sexuality educators' would discuss with children at the 'fisting' workshop. The instructor Margot Abels said so herself" [emphasis in original]. But the statements [51] MassResistance cites Abels reportedly making indicate only that her immediate supervisors in the Department of Education were aware of her work -- not Jennings or other GLSEN officials. Moreover, while MassResistance claims that Jennings "worked hand in hand with the Mass. Department of Education from the beginning, as co-chair of the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth education committee," Jennings left that commission years before the 2000 workshop took place.
SMEAR: High school students received "fisting kits" at 2001 GLSEN conference
REALITY: Planned Parenthood distributed safe sex kits including "instructions for how to make a 'dental dam.' " Conservative bloggers have followed Hoft's lead [52] in claiming that "fisting kits" -- often placed in quotes -- were distributed at the 2001 GLSEN/Boston conference. But those bloggers have presented no evidence that the kits distributed by Planned Parenthood of Massachusetts were actually intended for fisting. Indeed, while the conservative newspaper Massachusetts News - cited by Hoft -- reported [53] in 2001 that the kits were "intended for 'fisting' or oral sex," the paper described the kit's contents as "a single plastic glove, a package of K-Y lubricant and instructions on how to make a 'dental dam' out of the material," and offered no support for their claim that the kits were "intended for 'fisting.'" FoxNews.com has reported [54] that Hoft "alleged that Jennings and GLSEN were involved in Planned Parenthood's purported distribution of 'fisting kits,'" but that the kit "was actually for making a 'dental dam' -- designed to prevent STD transmission during oral sex."
SMEAR: GLSEN handed out explicit safe-sex booklet to children
REALITY: Community health group -- not GLSEN -- says it mistakenly brought "about 10 copies" of booklet banned under GLSEN policy to conference. Conservative bloggers [55] and the Washington Times [43] editorial board [43] have falsely stated or suggested that GLSEN had distributed to children an explicit safe-sex booklet which included "the addresses and phone numbers of Boston-area gay bars" and [56] "Pushed Anal S*x in Parks With Strangers." In fact, a community health group -- not GLSEN itself -- reportedly said that it had mistakenly "left about 10 copies" of the booklet on an informational table it rented at a 2005 GLSEN conference at Brookline High School in Massachusetts; the group reportedly apologized for doing so; GLSEN stated that if it had known the booklets had been at the conference, it would have demanded they be removed; and the Brookline school superintendent reportedly said he believed no students had actually taken the book.
SMEAR: GLSEN gave teens "directories to gay 'leather' bars" in Chicago
REALITY: Chicago Area Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce -- not Jennings or GLSEN -- produced guide for GLSEN national conference. Hoft has claimed [57] that GLSEN "passed out guides to gay leather bars in Chicago to students in 2000." But according to an October 7, 2000, press release from the anti-gay groups Americans for Truth, the Chicago Area Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce -- not Jennings or GLSEN -- produced a visitor's guide that was distributed at GLSEN's annual conference in Chicago. That guide reportedly, according to the press release, "contain[ed] a full-page ad for Steamworks, a homosexual bathhouse in Chicago" [Americans for Truth press release, 10/7/00 (from the Nexis database)]. According to right-wing WorldNetDaily [58], "Organizers said around 800 people, including teenage students, some of whom received financial scholarships, attended the event."
SMEAR: Jennings is a "pedophile"
REALITY: Even right-wing Accuracy in Media acknowledged there is "no evidence to support" that smear. On December 10, a blogger for Accuracy in Media, which purports to "set the record straight on important issues that have received slanted coverage" falsely claimed Jennings is a "pedophile." Shortly after Media Matters brought attention [59] to the blog post and noted that no allegations of pedophilia have been made against Jennings and that the only evidence the blogger appeared to cite to support her allegation was a false claim, the post was removed without comment [60]. The following day, Accuracy in Media stated [22] that it "regret[s] the publication" of the blog post and that it has "no evidence to support" that allegation that Jennings is a "pedophile."
SMEAR: Jennings "spoke about the promotion of homosexuality in the public school curriculum"
REALITY: Jennings said promoting sexual orientation in schools was "ineffective." Andrew Breitbart and The Washington Times grossly distorted [61] comments Jennings made to a GLSEN audience in 2000 to claim he "spoke about the promotion of homosexuality in the public school curriculum" and "criticize[d] schools for promoting heterosexuality." In fact, in the audio files posted by the Times and Breitbart, Jennings promoted a curriculum that demands "respect [for] every human being regardless of sexual orientation, regardless of gender identity, regardless of race or religion or any of the arbitrary distinctions we make among people," and said that efforts to promote a specific sexual orientation through schools were ineffective.
SMEAR: Jennings called for mandatory "LGBT course" for teachers
REALITY: Jennings called for course on "issues of bias in the classroom." The Washington Times' Kerry Picket reprinted [62] a doctored transcript -- originally posted by a conservative blog -- of 2008 comments by Jennings to falsely claim Jennings had said he wanted teachers to be required to "take an LGBT course" -- a claim also echoed by The Fox Nation. In fact, responding to an audience member who asked about how to combat stereotypes held by teachers based on race, gender, and ethnicity as well as sexual orientation, Jennings did not call for a mandatory "LGBT course," but rather called for a mandatory course on "issues of bias in the classroom" for aspiring teachers in order for them to be aware of "how biases can influence how you interact with your students."
SMEAR: Book foreword written by Jennings suggests support for NAMBLA
REALITY: Jennings called for valuing "every human being as a precious gift." Hannity and Karl Rove attempted to link [39] the foreword Jennings wrote for the 1999 book [63] Queering Elementary Education: Advancing the Dialogue about Sexualities and Schooling to his purported support for NAMBLA [5] and statutory rape [3]. In fact, in the foreword [35] -- which, contrary to Rove's and Hannity's suggestions, had nothing to do with statutory rape -- Jennings called for valuing "every human being as a precious gift" and looked forward to the day when people could "walk down our streets without fear."
SMEAR: Jennings has "contempt for religion"
REALITY: Jennings indicated that "he later returned to religion," he went on to join board of a Protestant seminary. Conservative media figures Brian Kilmeade [64] and David Limbaugh [65] have highlighted what they termed Jennings' teenage "hatred for God" or "contempt for religion," based on a statement Jennings made in his memoir describing his mindset more than 30 years ago. But later in his memoir, Jennings writes that he since found from the Bible "the inspiration I need to continue my work," and he went on to serve on the board of the Union Theological Seminary.
SMEAR: Jennings is not qualified for his post
REALITY: Jennings has received broad support from education and other officials. Several right-wing media figures have called for Jennings' firing or resignation, based on smears detailed elsewhere in this document. But their caricatures of Jennings are undercut [66] by the fact that education and other officials have spoken highly of Jennings, who has received numerous awards and was a one-time appointee of Republican Massachusetts Gov. William Weld.
SMEAR: Jennings "Personally Pushed Books That Encouraged Children to Meet Adults at Gay Bars For Sex"
REALITY: Book in no way supports this claim. Hoft falsely claimed [67] that Jennings "Personally Pushed Books That Encouraged Children to Meet Adults at Gay Bars For Sex," citing MassResistance's falsehood that a book Jennings recommended to high school and college students, One Teenager in 10, "encourage[s] teens to, among other things, go to gay bars and have sex with adults to see if they like it." Media Matters for America has reviewed the book, compiled all references to gay bars, and determined that the book at no point encourages teens to "go to gay bars and have sex with adults"; in fact, a majority of the youth testimonials included in the book that mention gay bars refer to them negatively.
CLAIM: Jennings is the "Safe Schools Czar"
REALITY: Jennings is head of the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools, created by the Bush administration. Numerous [68] right-wing [69] media [70] have referred to Jennings as the "White House Safe Schools Czar." In fact, Jennings' actual title [71] is "Assistant Deputy Secretary for Safe and Drug-Free Schools, US Department of Education," and he is a member of the senior staff [72] of Education Secretary Arne Duncan, not part of the White House staff. He directs The Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools, which was established [73] under the Bush administration and previously headed by Bush administration appointees Eric G. Andell [74] and Deborah A. Price [75]. A search of the Nexis database finds no indication that either Andell or Price were ever referred to as a "czar." Media Matters has noted [76] that in attacking so-called Obama administration "czars" as unaccountable, Fox News frequently targeted officials who have been confirmed by the Senate, were appointed to positions created through legislation passed by Congress, or had counterparts in the Bush administration.

So many topics to write about since I last blogged.
What to say about...
1) ...the opening of the eagerly (but I'm not sure why) awaited opening of Messiah 2: Pay No Mind to the Lack of Experience or Personality in Newcastle. Keegan may not have been the best manager ever but at least there was a solid reason behind the hysteria. I know Shearer is a local icon and was one of the great strikers in the history of the Prem but if you substituted Maradona for Shearer and Argentina for NUFC you'd have (and in fact you did have) widespread laughter from the knowing throngs that could see the disaster coming a mile away. Need evidence? Bolivia 6 - Argentina 1 - really? I wouldn't have guessed that Bolivia could hang 6 on Argentina's U20 side let alone their first team.
2) ...ManYoo's self-destruction coming down the stretch. We're not at collapse proportions yet but is anyone ready to admit that SAF's construction of this team isn't any less subject to his personal blinders than Wenger's construction of Arsenal? I'm sure I'm not the only person outside of England to notice that Rooney only lives up to the hype for short bursts during any given season. Now that CRon is just a very good player, there are a lot of cracks showing - most notably the fact that they have no midfielders. Giggs is contributing on muscle memory but can't be counted on, Carrick/Anderson/Fletcher/O'Shea are OK players but when was the last time you read anything about a major European club "sniffing around" any of ManYoo's midfielders? (For these purposes we are correctly classifying CRon as a forward, not a midfielder) There has to be a reason for this. Pundits seem to be pointing to Hargreaves injury as a major factor here but I don't remember a time since he came to United when he wasn't injured for anything other than a short stretch - building a squad around his capability isn't any sounder a strategy than expecting Tomas Rosicky to make a contribution. Could still be enough to win the Prem given the number of matches left but mark my words, there is NO WAY they will win the Champions League.
3) ...a brainstorm on how to make the Carling Cup more interesting. I mentioned March Madness in a column the other day referring to the Men's College Basketball Championship tournament here in the US - without a doubt, the best concentrated yearly tournament in world sports - 3 weekends, 33 games, plenty of drama, and it's all over rather quickly. As generally happens here, sportswriters focused on other sports tend to try to apply the lessons of March Madness to their sports at this time of year - a cheap gimick for a column? absolutely. Am I going to submit a modest proposal anyway? You bet. My thought...revitalize the Carling Cup by condensing it down into a 3 week tournament starting just after the New Years Day matches. Why?
- It would bring some much needed excitement and focus to a competition that is mostly viewed with a yawn;
- For clubs who go out early, it would represent the frequently-requested Winter Break;
- It would give managers and administrators time to integrate January signings outside of the pressure of the primary league competition;
- "Underdog" teams from lower divisions with hopes of making a run in the Carling Cup wouldn't need to sustain excellent performance over a number of months, just a short stretch of 5 or 6 matches over 3 weeks - a hot striker or goalkeeper could really make an impact on a relatively small club progressing beyond their means/reputation.
With clubs in need of additional sources of revenue in the face of the recession, things like what I'm suggestion should be considered more seriously than ever before. There is comfort in tradition but at this point, you have to consider any option available to keep the coffers full because the in-stadium crowd that keeps most lower division clubs afloat just isn't going to stay steady for the next year or two.
OK, with those thoughts planted in your head, we'll move on to the Week Ahead in fantasy...
There are some teams playing on the road this weekend that should have fantasy managers salivating - between Citeh, Boro, and Stoke you can almost guarantee road losses each time out and all three are traveling. The most enticing has to be Citeh traveling to the Emirates where Arsenal have found the nets again - could get ugly. The only downside of the other two trips is that Boro are headed to Bolton who are never great to bet on and Stoke are traveling to West Brom who are where they are in the table for a reason. The other big question is which side in poor form - ManYoo or Villa - will snap out of it? Given that they are at home and, well, more talented you'd have to guess it will be United. Liverpool take their hotstreak on the road to Fulham while everyone waits and wonders what will happen when struggling Chelsea walk into the cauldron of emotions and other strangeness that awaits them at St. James' Park.
With Liverpool flying high, it's hard not to get excited about Nando as a premium priced striker. He didn't cash in much on Pool's dismantling of Villa but you have to expect that his outburst will be coming soon. If you're looking below the radar a little bit - Roman Bednar and Johan Elmander are interesting options given their opposition and reasonable prices - neither are no-brainers but Davies is too expensive for my tastes at Bolton.
Other interesting options outside of the obvious choices are Giovanni and Pavlyuchenko for Spurs (assuming that DBent is out).
The great unknown is who will line up at striker for Arsenal. Arshavin should be something of a no-brainer this weekend but with RvP injured on international duty, Bendtner always a question, and EdS's status ever-uncertain you have to wonder. Is K2 (a relative bargain at just over 11.00) a potential steal this weekend? Worth following the injury news and thinking about how to get in on the action.
Hard to stay away from Gerrard on a hot streak - if you have him, by all means keep him. If you don't, probably worth thinking about him over CRon or Lamps as the bedrock of your midfield. Nasri also seems to be coming into his own fantasy-wise as he gels with Arshavin and finds the cracks in the defense that Arsh opens up. He really is the heir to Pires' role. He isn't a game-changer on his own but he appears to have the makings of a fantastic sidekick.
If you're looking for the under-the-radar guys then Kilbane, Morrison, Modric, and Essien are interesting bets. At the same time, I'd stay away from Matty Taylor and Ashley Young given their high prices - MTay had a great week and has a great match-up but that's generally the time he delivers a 3.5 point effort.
I would also be remiss if I didn't throw Mark Noble into the mix on Jeremy's behalf, Jer has something of a footie-crush on Noble but managed to leave him out for his goal last week - I haven't heard anything about Noble making it back to Jer's line-up so the fantasy gods are likely to continue punishing Jeremy with more goals.
A couple pretty big items of note related to defenders - first, we eagerly await anything resembling a presumed line-up from Everton as we evaluate the potential of some of the Toffees' young midfielders-listed-as-defenders (Rodwell and Gosling). If either are likely to play, they're worth a look. Robinson and Olsson for WBA are also interesting one-week options hosting Stoke who are always a strong bet to be shut out on the road. Gallas is a decent bargain for Arsenal at just over 8.00 with equally-likely-to-be-blanked Citeh coming to town - throw in the decent shot at a goal (or at least an SOT or two) and you have good value. Old favorite JLloyd Samuel is another interesting bargain who has a good shot a a steady point return - if you're a bit more of a gambler, then Gardner should be in your thinking against Boro. He tends to get forward and make things happen when he's given the chance - the only issue is whether he'll start.
Jussi is the obvious choice here unless you have the money to get to Almunia. As I think about it, even if you do have the money to move up, I might stick with Jussi - much easier to see one of Citeh's quality individual attackers (Robinho, Ireland, etc.) getting a goal against the run of play than it is to see someone from Boro doing the same. Scott Carson would be my fallback position but his price is a bit high after a solid fantasy performance last time out and, well, he's Scott Carson so he could easily be the cause of his own undoing even if his team plays well in front of him.
OK, that's all until Injuries and Suspensions tomorrow.
Cheers - Neal

You're gonna love it!
This is a discussion on New Kahr CW 9 within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Here she is, racked the slide till my hand got raw, we'll see how she shoots tomorrow or Monday. I never found in the manual ...
Here she is, racked the slide till my hand got raw, we'll see how she shoots tomorrow or Monday. I never found in the manual where it said to rack the slide repeatedly before you shoot it but I figured it couldn't hurt.
You're gonna love it!
Not too shabby. Hope it runs well for you. Well done.
Hows recoil by the way? Hopefully better than my pf9.

Nice single stack 9mm! Not the most expensive, but IMO one of the better 9mm carry guns. I've had one for quite some time now and it doesn't get much attention, but only because I have 4 other Kahr offerings.
As for recoil, it's not bad at all for such a light pistol. The low bore axis aids with the recoil and muzzle flip. Bottom line, I think you'll be as surprised as I was with my first Kahr. Great little pistols IMO. I carry my CM9 more than any of my other Kahrs, but only due to size. Excellent little pistols IMO , and affordable too.

nice choice and congrats on the new cw9,mine has been flawless..
I'm seriously thinking about getting one of these! Been to the gun shop a couple of times to fondle and really like it.
Question Everything!
Congrats on your CW9. You have one of the best single stack nines out there. The procedure of dry racking the slide, clean and lube, probably orgianated on the various gun forums. But I went thru it with my CW9 and had excellent results. It is now my primary carry gun. Recoil is not bad at all and you can make quick follow ups . Good choice.

Banner Manager Help Screens
Web banners (also called banner ads) are a common form of advertising on the web. They are called this because, like real-world banners, they are usually in a high-aspect-ratio shape (narrow and tall, or short and wide). They are usually placed on websites with high-quality content and link back to the advertisers' websites. Sometimes they are simple images combined with some HTML and JavaScript. Increasingly often they also use multimedia objects to play animations and sounds, employing technologies like Flash, Shockwave or Java, to attract attention.

CANADA STOCKS-TSX falls 1.9 as Valeant slumps, banks weigh
TORONTO Oct 30 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index fell sharply on Friday, pushed lower by a slump in Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc after it cut ties with a specialty pharmacy accused of helping it inflate revenue, and by retreats in heavyweight banks.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index unofficially closed down 262.71 points, or 1.90 percent, at 13,529.17. It lost 3 percent on the week and gained 1.7 percent through October. (Reporting by Alastair Sharp; Editing by Chris Reese)

Power system operating incident reports
In this section
In this section
AEMO conducts investigations of 'unusual power system events' within the NEM. These events are known as "reviewable operating incidents" and are generally not considered as "credible contingency events". As such, these events are not normally taken into account in the operation of the NEM.
The full scope of such events is set out in National Electricity Rules Clause 4.8.15, the guidelines established by the Reliability Panel and the agreed list of Critical Transmission Elements.
AEMO conducts these investigations to assess the adequacy of the provision and response of facilities or services, and the subsequent appropriateness of actions taken to restore or maintain power system security. AEMO then publishes a report on each incident.
Archived Reports are available from AEMO's Support Hub

Re: PrintPrecision

:When I use the Options Inspector to change the notebook 'Formatting
:Options', 'Expression Formating', 'Display Options', 'PrintPrecision' to
:3 in order to see more of a matrix in my window then som numbers come out
:expected (ex. -3.22) while others still have a lot of digits (ex.
:27.536488564494144). How can I make them all small?
I'm sick to death of the bizarre formatting rules which Mathematica
uses. I want a plain, simple, fixed-format, in which a "1" will print
as a "1.0000" (NOT "1.") and a "1.39281" will print as a "1.3928" and a
"1.31" will print as a "1.3100". I've tried NumberForm, I've tried
PaddedForm, I've tried writing the damned things to a file--and I cannot
get the simple, classical, traditional "f6.4". HOW DO I DO THIS?!
And when I print it to a file, I **don't** want to find the file filled
with a bunch of "NumberForm[..."'s.
And as I mentioned in another post, **my** Options Inspector won't make
any changes.

Hospitals may be able to reduce the number and duration of sudden episodes of delirium in at-risk older patients by using a new clinical approach, according to results of a study appearing in the March 4, 1999 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine 1 . The study, conducted at Yale-New Haven Hospital in Connecticut, is the first large-scale clinical trial targeted toward prevention of delirium, a condition which is prevalent among hospitalized older adults and is a frequent contributor to hospital complications and death. The National Institute on Aging (NIA) funded the study.
"Delirium is an extremely frustrating and often harmful problem for patients, hospital staff, and families alike," said Sharon K. Inouye, M.D., M.P.H., Associate Professor of Medicine at Yale University School of Medicine, who directed the study. "We now know that there are a set of clearly identifiable factors that place patients at risk for development of delirium. By addressing each of these within a team setting, we may actually be able to prevent a very troubling condition."
In the study, participants were divided into two groups: those receiving usual, standard hospital care or those receiving care under a multidisciplinary team of specialists, including staff nurses, nurse specialists, recreational therapists, physical therapists, geriatricians, and trained volunteers. While 15 percent of those receiving standard hospital services experienced at least one episode of delirium, only 9.9 percent of those receiving the team approach experienced an episode. Patients receiving the multicomponent approach experienced fewer episodes and a reduction in the number of days of delirium. However, the intervention did not affect either the duration of hospital stay or the rate of readmission.
Study investigators found the significant benefits of the team approach by targeting patients with one or more of six risk factors for delirium, including cognitive impairment, sleep deprivation, immobility, dehydration, or impaired vision or hearing. To address these risk factors, care-team members used targeted intervention protocols, such as word games and orientation and memory aids to sharpen thinking; relaxation tapes, massage, and warm drinks at bedtime to promote sleep; exercise to increase mobility; vision and hearing aids to improve sight and hearing; and provision of oral fluids to prevent dehydration.
"Once delirium occurs, the cat's out of the bag," says Dr. Inouye. "It seems that prevention is much more effective than treatment. We found that we could indeed prevent episodes of delirium using this approach, but not recurrences. The greatest effect was on prevention of an initial episode of delirium. We were also able to substantially reduce the total number of targeted risk factors for delirium in hospitalized patients, and we also saw improved cognition, reduced need for sedative drugs for sleep, and increased mobility, vision, and hearing. The matched design of this clinical trial provides a much-needed alternative when randomization to study groups is not possible."
The total cost of the Yale program, called the Elder Life Program, was $139,506, or $327 per patient. All 852 participants in the 3-year study were over the age of 70 and were patients at Yale's teaching hospital.
"This study of delirium shows the consequence of not following best practices -- like making sure patients wear their glasses and hearing aids, making sure they get enough water to drink, enough sleep, and exercise for mobility," said Neil Buckholtz, Ph.D., Chief of the NIA's Dementia Branch. "In addition, a low-tech intervention of this type might make adult hospitalization a less frightening experience for patients."
Sharon K. Inouye, M.D., M.P.H., Sidney T. Bogardus, Jr., M..D., Peter A. Charpentier, M.P.H., Linda Leo-Summers, M.P.H., Denise Acampora, M.P.H., Theodore R. Holford, Ph.D., and Leo M. Cooney, Jr, M.D. "A Multicomponent Intervention to Prevent Delirium in Hospitalized Older Patients," New England Journal of Medicine , March 4, 1999, pp. 669-676.
The NIA is one of 25 Institutes and Centers at the National Institutes of Health and supports basic, clinical, epidemiological, and social research on aging and on the special needs of older people.

People with multiple sclerosis often suffer from severe dry skin. Dermal Therapy's moisturizers can effectively hydrate skin.
Most doctors feel that multiple sclerosis is caused by a person's immune system attacking his or her own nerve coverings and damaging them.
Multiple sclerosis is a disease in which a previously healthy person may suddenly go blind and then slowly recover their eye sight. Months later, they may become paralyzed on one arm and leg, then recover most of the function. Then they continue to suffer repeated loss of nerve function followed by partial recovery.
The process of damage and recovery is caused by a defect in your immunity. When a germ gets into your body, your immune system produces antibodies that attach to and kill that germ.
Antibodies are not supposed to attack your own body. In multiple sclerosis, the antibodies attack the coverings of your nerves and punch holes in them to cause nerve damage. Then, the nerves heal and are attacked again by your immunity.
All of our products containing over 10% urea will be effective at hydrating the dry hard skin associated with Multiple Sclerosis.

30/05/2014 18 Powerful Facts Most Companies Ignore
It still surprises me, even in this day and age, how many people still need convincing that improving the customer experience through supply chain improvements will generate revenue and save costs...despite the credible research backing this up. However, being on the front line of as a supply chain consultant, I would say that more and more companies are focusing on this area of their business. But I would still agree with The New Supply Chain Agenda that less than 20% of companies out there even have a supply chain strategy.
11/02/2013 How to Convert Prepay & Add Programs to Collect in 10 Steps
The part of a business where there can be a lot of low hanging fruit is inbound transportation. Particularly where vendors prepay and add freight to their invoice.

Some popular business sayings that are relevant today are "companies don't know what they don't know", "knowledge is power" and "you cannot manage what you cannot measure".

Frankly, any Tory wife who wears a brilliantly on-trend, borderline-bonkers leather-panelled shift dress to party conference is all right by me.
The fact that Betsy Duncan Smith clearly considers the whole get-up an absolute hoot makes it even better (no point going fashion-forward unless you're going to enjoy the attention.) What I love about thisis that it is not "dressing up for conference" in the sense of wearing a pretty dress in order to be helpfully decorative to one's husband. The all-black, the don't-mess leather, the no-frills handbag: it is very independent in spirit, this outfit. The Contrast Sleeve, as beautifullymodelled here, is a hot look right now. (Translation: it was on the catwalks six months ago and every fashion assistant in London or Paris is right now wearing a Zara version.)
This fashionable detail will be way over the heads of most conference attendees, but embracing fashion in this way is guaranteed to flush out the one person in the room with whom one can have an intelligent conversation about ankle versus knee length boots and what exactly one is supposed to do about the tights issue in this weather (such a bonus when the eurozone chat gets too deadly). However, there is a flaw in Betsy Duncan Smith's outfit. The necklace doesn't work at all. Yes, Lady Mary from Downton Abbey is having a moment, but not with that dress. Coco Chanel said that the secret to elegance was always to take off the last accessory you put on. Swap the necklace for pearl stud earrings next time, Betsy.

I was house sitting for my folks this past month. Mind you that they still live in the house that I grew up in. This has always bother me and my siblings.
While house sitting,I would get up in the morning to take my shower, brush my teeth, etc.... I was getting so PO'D because I would have to wait at least 5 minutes until hot water came out of the tap.
I'm the guy who stands in front of the microwave and says its taking to long.
I hooked my parents up with the Grundfos Comfort System. This kit is a retro fit. I wasn't about to crawl my fat ass under the house and run a recir loop.
All I had to do was install the bypass tee at the furthest fixture and the pump on the hot water line on top of the heater.
My parents love it, they thanked me so much and I guess the wait is over.
Here is a diagram of the system.

DIY: How to Create an Indoor Garden
When you are renting, but have a passion for gardening, an indoor garden is the perfect way to spice up your apartment and bring life to any space.
There are many creative ways to bring the outdoors into your home using materials you can buy at your local hardware store or craft shop.
The first idea is to create a garden within a side table. This way the garden becomes functional and is the perfect way to break up a living room space. Instead of purchasing a boring end table with a lamp on it — create a mini garden instead! All you need is a small end table with depth on the surface — or you can create your own box using five small pieces of hardwood. The idea is to create a mini outdoor garden within the surface of the table, while adding a decorative birdhouse or fence to give it that rustic feel.
The second option is to use a giant clear bowl or vase and plant different spices, flowers or greenery to fill the inside. You can also create a theme for each garden such as, a desert theme with cacti. Create the garden you always dreamed of and maintain it with ease in your own home!
Lastly, you can transform a boring shelving unit into a beautiful garden space with a variety of potted plants. Rearrange your plants on the shelf and add gardening accessories like a watering can or gardening books to complete the look. Your passion for gardening will speak volumes in your home with this fresh design. It's the perfect way to show off that green thumb of yours!
Our beautiful Campbell Lofts are the perfect spaces for that indoor garden — so sign up for a tour today!

A History of Breitling Pilot's Watches
Step foot on the tarmac at Edwards or the flight deck of the USS Ronald Reagan and you're likely to see a few Breitling watches on the pilots' wrists -- as much a part of standard aviator kit as the ubiquitous and eponymous aviator shades. Breitling's connection with pilot's watches is more than a historical footnote or a well-branded, retro-inspired line of heritage watches. The brand has won pilots' favor over the decades due to the functionality and rugged build of the watches themselves, which have evolved over time as much as the planes the pilots are flying.

The New Forest's status as a national park is helping to pull in over seven million visitors a year, yet many arrive by car and add to the pollution and congestion in and around the ancient woodland. The Cottage Lodge is a restored 16th-century B&B five minutes' walk from Brockenhurst train station in the heart of the park.
The lodge's ample car park must have impressed the AA's inspectors who have rated the lodge the best B&B in the New Forest, yet there's free tea and scones if you arrive by train and if you do come by car you're encouraged to leave it in the car park while you explore the forest on foot, by bike or on horseback. The snug sitting room is supported by beams from an old boat, there's thick insulation throughout the rooms and kitchen waste is recycled.
I stayed in one of the large, en suite modern rooms on the ground floor; though the low-ceiling rooms in the old part of the cottage have more character. In the morning I was served a "New Forest breakfast" with all ingredients sourced from within 10 miles of the lodge, including free range eggs from Ashley, mushrooms from Cowsfield, and sausages from pigs reared in the forest.
Maps and detailed instructions are provided on the many circular walks from the lodge and there's cycle hire in the village from where you can explore over 100 miles of off-road cycle tracks.

Detailed information on arthroplasty, including the reasons and preparation for the procedure, how the procedure is performed, after care, and an anatomical illustration of the anatomy of the knee, hip, and types of joints.
Orthopedic surgeons use arthroscopy to diagnose and treat joint problems. An arthroscope is a small, tube shaped instrument that is used to look inside a joint.
A bone biopsy is a procedure in which bone samples are removed with a special biopsy needle or during surgery to determine if cancer or other abnormal cells are present.
Bone densitometry is used primarily to diagnose osteoporosis and to determine fracture risk. The testing procedure measures the bone density of the bones of the spine, pelvis, lower arm, and thigh.
A biopsy is a procedure performed to remove tissue or cells from the body for examination under a microscope.
A bunion is an enlargement of the bone or tissue around a joint at the base of the big toe or at the base of the little toe. The goal of surgery is to relieve pain and correct as much deformity as possible.

A research study published this week offers a powerful reminder of the difficulty of using cutting-edge science in the courtroom.
The study, reported in the latest issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, describes the genetic fingerprinting technique that the FBI relied on in its investigation of the 2001 anthrax letter attacks.
In 2008, the Justice Department was poised to indict a researcher named Bruce Ivins for committing the crime, but Ivins took his own life. A key piece of evidence tying Ivins to the anthrax attacks was a genetic match the FBI made between the anthrax bacteria in his lab and the bacterial spores found in the letters.
Fingerprinting Anthrax
To understand how the FBI made that connection between letters and lab, you have to know something about how the anthrax bacteria grow in the laboratory: "They go from one cell to nearly a billion cells overnight," says Paul Keim, a geneticist at Northern Arizona University and TGen, a nonprofit biomedical research foundation.

The movie is a flop? Blame the sms!
A curious article today on the Independent: according to the movie industry recent flops of The Hulk, Charlie's Angels and Gigli are due to… "sms".
"The problem, they say, is teenagers who instant message their friends with their verdict on new films – sometimes while they are still in the cinema watching – and so scuppering carefully crafted marketing campaigns designed to lure audiences out to a big movie on its opening weekend."
Well, my dear movie industry managers, if you really believe their flops are due to sms instead that to lack of quality and originality, then I have only a suggestion… Sequestrate the cell phones to people before entering the theatre!

BALTIMORE - The top-seeded and 12th-ranked women's lacrosse team captured Loyola University Maryland it's first-ever Patriot League Championship Saturday afternoon, tying a tournament record 18 goals in an 18-7 win over Boston University at Ridley Athletic Complex.
With the win, the Greyhounds (14-4, 8-0 Patriot League) secured their 12th-straight victory and an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, marking Loyola's fourth-straight NCAA appearance.
"I couldn't be more proud of our team today," Patriot League Coach of the Year Jen Adams said. "Boston University's been playing such great lacrosse of late, so to see us come out in the championship game and put together 60 minutes of consistent, team lacrosse is exciting at this point in the season. I'm so excited for our team to be able to walk out of here today with the school's first-ever Patriot League Championship."
Senior Marlee Paton, the Tournament MVP, finished with seven goals, two assists, nine points, five draw controls and three caused turnovers in the two games, while junior Hannah Schmitt, junior Taryn VanThof and sophomore Maddy Lesher joined Paton on the All-Tournament Team.
Junior Kara Burke led all players today with a career-high five goals today, while Paton added four and Schmitt tacked on three with one assist. VanThof added two goals and an assist, while junior Annie Thomas contributed one goal and one assist while being face guarded. Senior Ali Habicht and junior Molly Hulseman rounded out the scoring for the Greyhounds with one goal each.
Jill Horka led Boston University (9-10, 5-3) with three goals and Lindsay Weiner added two.
The Terriers got on the board first, scoring at the 27-minute mark, but the Greyhounds responded by rattling off eight-straight goals, its second-longest goal streak of the season, to take an 8-1 advantage by the 8:40 mark. VanThof started the scoring at 19:12, before Burke, Schmitt and Paton notched their first goals of the day by 15:14.
Burke scored her second on a free-position shot at 14:02 and Schmitt tallied her second at 13:05. Burke then completed her ninth career hat trick at 12:07 and Thomas capped off the run at 8:40.
Boston halted the streak at 5:52, but Paton found the back of the net twice within 40 seconds to push Loyola ahead, 10-2, at the 4:15 mark. Burke then capped off a three-goal Greyhound run with a score at 1:09 and a Terriers' goal as time expired in the half gave Loyola an 11-3 advantage at the break.
The Terriers opened the second half scoring, but Habicht and VanThof tallied goals within 16 seconds to push Loyola ahead, 13-4. Boston attempted a comeback, stringing together a 3-1 run, but four-straight goals from the Greyhounds closed out the game, giving Loyola an 18-7 victory.
VanThof finished the game with eight draw controls, while Paton and Lesher added three each. Thomas, Habicht and Lesher also had two caused turnovers and sophomore Molly Wolf added three ground balls to go with six saves.
The Greyhounds will return to action on Saturday when they travel to No. 1 Syracuse to close out the regular season. The game is scheduled for 1 p.m., in the Carrier Dome.

It would be easier to move out of CT.
Uppers are not registered anywhere. It would surprise me if there was any laws made that would change that. However there is those mag bans that have taken place. The nice thing is that CT is small, and you can drive over and buy an upper anywhere without there being any out of state issues.
Most lego sets don't require a torque wrench and a vise. It's a little more difficult than legos. But not too much.

Okay this is a bit difficult for some people to understand. Ke$ha sang and recorded the song "Run Devil Run" but never bought it nor released it, the song was leaked out onlin…e.

SNSD translated it, sang it, recorded it and, shot the music video. So SNSD sings "Run Devil Run" hope this helps answer your question :)) P.S As long as Ke$ha is not making any money off the leaked song then it is ok. But if she is then SNSD can sue her hahahahaha!

Garden Street Objectors' Death Threats To Supporters
West Yorkshire Police are reported to be investigating claims that individuals and business, either involved or publicly supporting the controversial development proposal for Garden Street, have been the victims of vandalism and death threats. Broken windows, vehicles tampered with, and threatening letters are just some of the disturbing incidents which have taken place.
Teenager's Killers Sentenced
The three men accused of attacking and killing local teenager Alex Holroyd have each received custodial sentences totaling 20 years. During the trial, Leeds Crown Court heard that this vicious attack on Mr. Holroyd had been premeditated, and that on the night of the assault, he had been hunted down through the streets of Todmorden by his attackers. The 19 year old was left fighting for his life with severe facial lacerations and a 16cm stab wound which punctured his lung. Mr. Holroyd died from his injuries at 2am the following day.
Todmorden Writer Releases Debut Novel
Todmorden writer L.E. Butler has just released her debut novel RELIEF with US publisher Regal Crest. Set in Venice 1912, Relief takes the reader into the Bohemian underworld of the Belle Epoque. In her debut novel, L.E. Butler draws upon her own background as a ballet dancer, her travels in Venice and Istria, and a decade of research on the era. Relief offers a love story and a mystery with a shocking twist.
Police Trouble For Labour
It has been revealed in the local press that Labour Party candidate Janet Oosthuysen has received a police caution for allegedly vandalising her ex-boyfriend's car. Ms. Oosthuysen, a resident of Hebden Bridge, is currently awaiting confirmation from Labour's National Executive Committee that she will replace Chris McCafferty MP, who made the decision to step down as the Labour MP for Calder Valley last year.
Community Arts Group In Crisis
The future of the Hebden Bridge community arts group HEADS appears in doubt. The organisers of the enormously successful Hebden Bridge Handmade Parade have revealed to the press that their application for funding from Arts Council, England has been rejected, putting them in financial crisis. The trustees of the group have suggested their resources may run dry by early Autumn. Lee Comer, Chair of the board of trustees, is quoted in the Hebden Bridge Times as saying: "About two or three days before the parade we found out that we weren't going to get funding on the basis that we had before. There is simply not enough grant money from the Arts Council, England, to go around to all the organisations."
Candle 4 Tibet Vigil
Hebden Bridge Tibet support group, LOVE 4 TIBET, will be holding a peaceful, candle-lit vigil on the eve of the Beijing Olympics. Please join us in Hebden Bridge Square between 8.30-9.00pm. 1000's of similar candle vigils are taking place around the world, to keep alive the flame of hope for Human Rights for Tibet.
