Medical Marijuana Boosters Not Cheering NY Law
Medical marijuana advocates are skeptical of the changes that would make New York the 21st state to allow use of the drug.
Those calling for widely available medical marijuana say Gov. Andrew Cuomo's administrative action, expected to be announced Wednesday, has some major flaws. The governor is basing the expansion on a 1980 health department law requiring hospital committees to approve the use of the drug on a patient-by-patient basis.
"To expect hospital committees to review those cases in any kind of reasonable time frame is hard to imagine," said Richard Gottfried, chair of the state assembly's health committee.
Twenty hospitals in the state would be authorized to offer medical marijuana. Gottfried called it a good interim step. But he said the marijuana available to patients in New York would either come from federal labs or from law enforcement seizures — which would not include the most up-to-date strains available in other states or include marijuana in oils and edible forms.
Gottfried is hoping Cuomo will work with the state Assembly to write a more comprehensive law.

"My husband and I planned a fun and exciting baby shower for our second child, who is due this NOVEMBER. I was looking for a special kind of invitation to go with our theme, Gender Reveal. The card I found on Tiny Prints was spot on with its design. It matches our decor to a T!!! I was elated. Our shower is being hosted by my sister and all invites have been mailed. Everyone of our closest family and friends have only the best of compliments about the design of the invitation! We couldn't have made it better ourselves, absolutely AWESOME!"
"These jungle safari baby shower invitations are so adorable! The colors and layout are perfect for an expectant mom who does not know the gender of her baby. Personalizing the card was so easy and interactive. The customer service was great and the invitations were delivered before the promised day. I'd definitely use Tiny Prints again and recommend them to anyone."
"These Baby Shower Invitations are Adorable. They were printed Exactly as I ordered them and they are thick and well made. Perfect for my Monkey Jungle Safari Themed Baby Shower!! Can't wait to get them mailed out and for guests to open them! Got the matching Return Address Labels to go with them, and they are great too!"
"I'm very pleased with how these invitations turned out - I was looking for a gender neutral design that deviated from the normal green/yellow themes. These were perfect, and look very high quality. I highly recommend having the envelopes printed as well - it saved so much time and was worth every penny. My only request would be to allow for some different font options for the envelopes so they're more customizable! Thanks for a great product!"
"Used them for my baby shower and they came out very cute and sturdy. I also purchased the "natural" colored envelopes with them. Very pleased with the purchase and how they came out."

He strides into the wood-panelled courtroom looking much as he did four years ago when he was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president. Sharp in a suit, his hair as flawless as it ever was, ex-Senator John Edwards stops to greet a friend in the public benches before settling in his leather swivel chair at a table near the front. Then the judge and jury come in and we are reminded again: this is not the man we once thought we knew.
That is an understatement. A recent CBS News poll found that Mr Edwards' approval rating in America today is only 3 per cent. Over the months and years since he quit the 2008 primaries, the country has learned by slow drip of the car-crash that was his private life. Now, in Greensboro, North Carolina, we are here to dredge the ghastly details: the girlfriend, the out-of-wedlock baby, the spurned wife now deceased.
But being a lousy person is not a crime and he is not on trial for that. Rather, over 14 days of prosecution testimony that ended on Friday, the government argued that the man who once dreamed of being president violated election-financing laws by tapping two wealthy donors – Bunny Mellon, a banking heiress who is now 101-years old, and Fred Baron, his former finance chairman – for nearly $1m (£622,100) to cover his adulterous tracks and protect his candidacy and hopes for political resurrection. Under federal law, $4,600 is the most an individual can give a candidate for president.
The defence for Mr Edwards, who was a successful trial lawyer until he was elected to the US Senate in 1998, must begin its case this morning. Experts differ on how steep a hill the defence team must climb to ensure not-guilty verdicts for all of the six charges filed against him.
If his defence team fails, he could face up to 30 years behind bars. The battle over the likeability of Mr Edwards has surely already been decided, which is ironic if you recall that his success as a politician – a US Senator who was John Kerry's running mate in 2004 and then a primary candidate in 2008 – rested on his particular populist appeal, not to mention the hair. Still, on this one afternoon near the end of the prosecution case, you might have felt a twinge of sympathy for him.
It happened when Jennifer Palmieri, now a White House deputy communications director, but who in 2008 was a consultant for the Edwards campaign, was brought to the stand. Of interest to the prosecution: her very close relationship with Elizabeth Edwards, who was first in line to suffer when the truth of her husband's liaison with his campaign videographer, Rielle Hunter, came to light. The prosecution wanted to hear more of how she found out about the mistress, the steps that were taken to contain her and, much later, of Mr Edwards' paternity of the child.
But it was under cross-examination by the defence that Ms Palmieri was questioned about Ms Edwards' death from breast cancer in December 2010. Ms Palmieri was at her side and so, the court learned, was Mr Edwards, even though they had long been separated.
Ms Edwards had begged Ms Palmieri that he should be there. "Her concern was that when she died there would be a man around who had loved her," Ms Palmieri testified before breaking down. There had been other wrenching moments during the case for the prosecution; for example, when a former campaign aide recalled a distraught Ms Edwards collapsing on the cement of an aircraft hangar after learning of her husband's infidelity and then ripping off her shirt and bra to reveal her surgery-scarred breasts and crying: "You don't see me anymore."
If there was a moment when the jury could see the defendant only as a cad then this was it.
As the court heard of the deathbed request, we could not access the mind of the defendant but those of us close enough could see the strain on his face, his left hand cupped over his brow, the pinching of moisture from his eyes.
"I think that was one of the most powerful moments we have seen on the stand in this trial," said Hampton Dellinger, a former State Deputy Attorney General, who has observed the trial since the start. It was also a moment that was almost redemptive. "She made clear that she wanted Mr Edwards by her side despite everything he had put her through."
The prosecution, Mr Dellinger explained, faced a challenge from the start defining the significance of the nearly $1m, some of which was spent keeping Ms Hunter happy and away from the media. Mr Baron had her flown on a private jet to the West Coast and put her up in a luxury hotel. Some of the cash was channelled to Andrew Young, a top aide to Mr Edwards who agreed to pretend he was the father of Ms Hunter's child before the truth emerged. On the stand, Mr Young admitted that a large part of the money went to building a dream house for himself and his wife.
For charges to stick, the prosecution must show that money was accepted specifically for the purpose of the campaign – to stop a Rielle Hunter-induced meltdown – and that Mr Edwards knowingly sought it for that reason. "They have to demonstrate that he committed a knowing and wilful violation and that's a high standard. I still think whether the government answered that question is an open question," Mr Dellinger said at the end of last week.
"Things have been a little choppy for sure for the government," Kieran Shanahan, a Greensboro lawyer who has also monitored the trial, said. "They have done a pretty good job of demonstrating that Edwards had knowledge of the expenses of Fred Baron but I still think there are some missing gaps of law."
What the defence has not done is to try to pretend their client is an angel. That Mr Edwards repeatedly lied to his wife, as well as to the US public – particularly in an interview he gave to ABC News in August 2008, when he denied paternity – is plain. Abbe Lowell, his lead lawyer, told the jury as much last week. But Mr Lowell said there was "not one ounce of evidence" that Mr Edwards broke the law when he used the donations to hide his mistress.
It is uncertain if Mr Lowell intends to put Mr Edwards on the stand or, indeed, Ms Rielle, who has not been seen in the courtroom. If he calls either, it will be standing room only in Greensboro.Reuse content

Replacement impeller and clip for Heil exhaust inducer blower
Are parts still available to repair Heil high efficiency furnace exhaust inducer blowers?
I have a Heil model 125DK05 furnace that has had the exhaust impeller and clip replaced approx. 7 years ago due to the clip failing and allowing the impeller to slip down and rub on the housing. It sounds like it has happened again. I have tried to find the same repair parts locally to repair this again and no one has them and they tell me they are no longer available, I need to buy a complete blower unit. The housing and motor are in fine shape and it seems like a huge waste to replace the whole unit because basically a 50 cent clip keeps failing.
My inducer blower part number is 1005150 and I have found several replacement options, the cheapest being a lot more expensive than what I paid last time for just the impeller and clip.
Does anyone have a source for the impeller and clip that fit my inducer blower? Thanks in advance.
A allot of service techs wish the same.
It comes as a single. I have inquired into buying separate pieces my self back in the day but I found out that the wheel was made to a spec that was good only for the furnace.
Try this link. I's the best price I could find on the net.
I appreciate the link and reply. So far that is what I am finding out also. I did run across a possible repair kit part number 1149307. It just seems insane to spend over $200.00 plus shipping when a $25.00 part and a 50 cent clip is all it needs. Actually the clip is uncoated spring steel and the moisture causes it to fail and then the impeller rubs. If I could find just the clip, it would probably be okay (I haven't taken it apart yet this time). The clip (if I remember correctly) makes the flat for the shaft to turn the impeller and helps hold it to the shaft. A very poor design with the impeller suspended (trying to slide off the shaft) and a cheap clip that fails due to moisture. Thanks for your reply and the link.

Very Talkative Kitten
I have a kitten that is about 15 weeks old who i adopted when she was 10 weeks. She's always been very talkative, letting me know when she's hungry, when she wants my attention and that she doesn't like being confined. Lately she will be cuddling with me and just meow, she has food and water, a clean litter box and everything and I'm not quite sure why she does this. Is it normal?

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Assuming that your kitten has been to the vet for vaccinations, exam and spaying and has checked out OK, yes, this is perfectly normal. Cats are like people in that respect. Some cats are shy and quiet and only "speak" when they need to. Other cats, like Izzie and Lizzie, have comments for every occasion from looking for each other or Delilah or reminding me when it's time for their wet food treats. Izzie always annouces himself when he enters a room. If my dog barks at him, he'll meow at her. Your baby is perfectly "normal" if you can describe ANY cat as being normal! 8o)

Medical Assistant Jobs: Tips To Find Them In Your Area
By Colin McLean
As long as there are people, there will be a need for medical services and care. No matter whether you live in the city or in a rural area, employers and recruiters are in constant need for qualified people who know their way around the front or back end of a medical office. These people are those employed as medical assistants.
Assistants who receive training in both administrative and clinical procedures have additional career opportunities available to them. With additional training, assistants can fill the jobs of medical receptionists, medical records technicians, medical secretaries, medical transcriptionists and many more.
The big challenge many medical assistants face is in knowing where to look for a job and gainful employment. Once you know where to locate a job and how to apply, it becomes surprising at the sheer number of effective job-location methods you might be able to use.
The outlook for medical assistant jobs - in terms of availability, personal talents, demographics and job market trends - can present a challenge for those seeking to build a solid job-search plan. It's necessary to stay on top of which employers are hiring, or if waiting for a different opportunity will pay off.
So, it becomes essential for medical assistant graduates or seasoned professionals to set clear and attainable goals in their job-search efforts. The following list can help you prioritize what you need to do to find a job as a medical assistant.
1. Set realistic and obtainable goals. Assess your talents and abilities and create a checklist to mark off each completed task for such things as additional schooling and the number of resumes posted or mailed.
2. Conduct a thorough search for available job openings. Your local newspaper along with the Internet can provide a ready source of job listings. Consider, as well, the distance you're willing to travel to and from work along with an acceptable level of pay.
3. Create a resume that gets results. Optimizing your resume for search will be a critical component for employers that search through databases to find medical assistant job candidates. Your goal is to make sure your resume is among those pulled for consideration. Upload your resume online to one of the leading sites like Monster.com or Careerbuilder.com.
Do the research to find out the demands of your local job market. Discovery should include average pay scale, and expectations of employers with respect to experience and certifications.
Don't hesitate to leverage social media in your search efforts for medical assistant jobs. Facebook and LinkedIn can be good sources for career networking.

Help with painting an interior door
I am trying to paint an interior door that leads into another room of a different color paint scheme..what color do I paint the door edge? I will be painting the door front and back two completely different colors and do not know which of those two colors i paint the door edge, do I paint the door edge the color the front side color or the back side color? Im confused..thanks
For ease of explaining, lets say the hallway is red, and inside the bedroom is green. You are standing in the red hallway, and the door to the bedroom is closed. On this side the door is painted red. As you open the door, the outside edge of the door will appear, and this should also be red. Now the inside of the door is green, and the inside edge of the door, with the hinges on it facing into the bedroom, should be green also.
Hope that makes sense.
My opinion...
For the purposes of this illustration:
Room 1 blue - door opens inward leading to room 2
Room 2 white - door swings outward and into room 1
There should be a small strip of wood that keeps the door from swinging into room 2
Paint the door side that faces room2 white
Paint the wood that stops the door from swinging into room 2 white EXCEPT for the tiny side of the strip that faces room 1 white That will mean 2 surfaces of this piece are white and one is blue
paint the 'back' of the door blue, paint the 4 edges of the door blue making 5 surfaces of the door blue if you are anal enough to paint the bottom of the door.
And if all else fails, get a couple of nice friends to help you remove the damn door! :D

A team of encryption specialists has figured out a way to communicate with each other using silence. No, it's not a Cold War era spy trick, but it's still very tricky. Welcome to SkypeHide.
The group that created the technique for SkypeHide was led by Wojciech Mazurczyk, an assistant professor of computer networks and switching at the Warsaw University of Technology. Mazurczyk and his colleagues specialize in network steganography. Spy nerds know that's the science of hiding information and messages within computer networks.
SkypeHide works using something called "packet hijacking." Mazurczyk, along with Maciej Karaś and Krzysztof Szczypiorski, found that whenever we use Skype, the program keeps sending 70-bit data packets during the silences that occur within a conversation. So the computer scientists put their own secret messages into those data packets, according to Nancy Owano at Phys.org.
Mazurczyk told Owano, "The secret data is indistinguishable from silence-period traffic, so detection of SkypeHide is very difficult." This opens up the potential to transmit secret text, audio files and even video during a red herring conversation that's happening. At best, the speed for transmitting these secret messages was 1 kilobit per second, which isn't superfast but could be fast enough to communicate something important.
Spy techniques can backfire, though. What if this technique gets into the wrong hands? Hopefully that long pause between birthday greetings doesn't end up being an ideal time for terrorists to touch base. If secret messages are discovered and have a criminal connection, a law enforcement entity could compel Skype to share messages stored temporarily on its server.
Skype does tells its users to be careful. As much as the site tries to protect users, the site can't guarantee their safeguards "will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use or disclose personal information."
More answers may be forthcoming later this summer, when the Warsaw University of Technology group plans to present SkypeHide at the ACM Workshop on Information Hiding and Multimedia Security in Montpellier, France. In the meantime, if you want to send some secret spy messages, there's always the classics: a red flag in the flowerpot or the chalk mark on the mailbox.

This was our last day in Cartagena before flying home, and we were perusing a few little bakeries and stores, slowly making our way back to our hotel to grab our bags. I happened to look across the street and saw this street vendor on a mission walking down the street. I knew I couldn't pass this shot up, so I did what most people would do – run through traffic without a word to catch up with this guy. 100% worth the effort to get this shot.

Charter Application
In the spring of 2010 two mothers of preschoolers met while volunteering in their sons' preschool. Both women had been researching schools to determine the right fit for their children. It became explicitly clear that a classical education best met their needs and goals.
Sadly, neither of their sons was able to win a seat in the lottery at the classical school of their choice. They soon learned that hundreds of children were on the waiting list, and hundreds more were on charter school waiting lists in Northern Colorado. Their desire and passion for a classical school program for their children grew to include wanting to create more classical education options for all the children in their community. Thus began the journey to create Loveland Classical Schools.
A Founders team quickly formed, and they agreed that a classical education was the means by which high standards would be achieved. Susan Wise Bauer and Jessie Wise in "A Well-Trained Mind," define a classical education: "It is language-intensive—not image-focused. It demands that students use and understand words, not video images. It is history-intensive, providing students with a comprehensive view of human endeavor from the beginning until now. It trains the mind to analyze and draw conclusions. It demands self-discipline. It produces literate, curious, intelligent students who have a wide range of interests and the ability to follow up on them."
The LCS Founding Members believe that this content-rich approach provides the kind of stimulation and challenge that encourages an excitement and love for learning. In order to broaden the educational program, LCS will also include the Core Knowledge sequence for grades K-8, and build upon that foundation for grades 9-12.
Together, LCS' vision and mission express a firm commitment to provide all students the opportunity to create a better life for themselves and their community. This American Dream will be implemented by a faculty and a principal, who understand the classical and the American ideals that govern LCS.
To accomplish this task, LCS will utilize a classical approach that is based on the educational paradigm of the trivium, which holds that every discipline has a grammar that needs to be explicitly taught by the teacher to the students; that the grammar is followed by the logical testing of the studied material, and that ultimately leads to rhetorical mastery in each discipline. In addition to this academic element of education, the classical approach also stresses the personal character and civic responsibility of each student. Classical education derives its curriculum from seminal events and great works of the tradition, which it inherits.
A classical education takes a traditional, common sense approach to what schools should do: They should try to improve their students' knowledge and character. Following the model of the trivium (three ways) classical education begins with teaching students the grammar of each subject. In history students need to know dates and facts before they can think critically about them. In biology, they have to understand the basic facts of life before they can investigate how life works. (This emphasis on the primacy of knowledge is also found in E.D. Hirsch's Core Knowledge Sequence.) When the students know the grammar of a subject they will be ready to ask many questions (because they are naturally curious human beings). This questioning defines the logic stage of the trivium and it naturally follows, and is even a part of, the acquisition of grammatical knowledge. Finally students will want to define where they stand vis-à-vis the learned and questioned materials: Thus they enter the rhetoric stage in which they make an argument about the logically tested grammar of each subject. In short, teachers in the classical education tradition simply begin by teaching knowledge, then lead the students to ask questions about what they now know, and ultimately help them to express their own thoughts about what they have learned. LCS teaches students to think, not just to know.
In addition to improving its students' intelligence, classical education understands that students are always part of a community: in the classroom, the family, the local community, the nation, and even an entire civilization. As members of these communities, students have to understand their duties to others and their responsibility for a society that they did not create but inherited. It is the explicit goal of a classical education to cultivate the students' private character as well as their public character. A classical education attempts to strengthen the private and public character of students by creating a school culture that embraces virtue as a means to happiness and that emphasizes the importance of belonging to a larger community, always beginning with the classroom and leading up to an entire civilization.
LCS will establish a school culture that focuses teachers, students, and parents on the importance of knowledge and the civilized discussions about it, creating an environment of thinkers and learners. LCS is also unique to the Thompson School District, as no other school in the area focuses on a classical education. On a practical level, LCS will be guided by an outside classical school consultant, which has already successfully implemented the curriculum and school culture that LCS will establish. Thus, LCS can follow an existing model and the LCS Principal and teachers can be coached by an existing classical Principal and teachers as they build a new school in Loveland.
LCS believes that its classical/liberal arts model can gain the support of broad demographic groups in the Loveland/Berthoud area. At the heart of our educational model is a belief that all students need to be equipped with the cultural literacy and moral foundations to become productive and contributing citizens to our country's constitutional republic. We believe this educational model is something that is attractive to individuals across all races, ethnic groups, and socio-economic classes. This is relevant in the Loveland/Berthoud area based on current demographic figures.
Current data gathered from the Thompson School District indicates that of the more than 15,000 students in the district, 80.4% are White, 15.6% are Hispanic, 1.8% are Asian, and 1.3% are African-American. The data also indicate that approximately 26.2% of the population is eligible for Free and Reduced Lunch.
LCS welcomes all students, and intends to serve the Thompson School District and students from contiguous school districts. Several homeschooling, private school, and students attending schools in other school districts have committed to enroll at LCS—bringing in more students to the Thompson School District. (See Evidence of Support and Appendix A: Letters of Support) There are hundreds of children on the charter school waiting list in the Loveland area. At the time this document was created our Founding Members had tallied over 2,800 students on charter school waiting lists at three charters within Loveland and Fort Collins. The demand for charter schools, schools of choice, and alternative educational options continues to rise.
The Thompson School District currently has one K-8 Core Knowledge charter school, whose students are looking for a high school that continues an education in the traditional liberal arts. LCS will be able to meet this need. Many students leave traditional school districts to choose a classical education or another option. LCS provides an opportunity to bring these families back to our district, and to also reach out beyond our district borders for potential new students.
LCS will be led by a team of committed community members and parents. Our initial board will be appointed by our Founders, as well as include members of our Founders team. This team will be passionate about classical education, and adhere to the LCS Vision and Mission. (For more details on LCS Governance, see page 32.)

Sorry it's been awhile. Fortunately the 7th grade trip to New York was not apocalyptic in the slightest. Anyway, speaking of New York, it's the setting of today's old-school apocalypse! In the future, everyone lives in vast suburban Tracts in little boxes made of ticky-tacky. All Cities have been evacuated and sealed, deemed too filthy for human habitation. They reopen Manhattan Dome every summer as a sort of Vegas playground for Tract folks.
When Ron visits Manhattan with his dad near the end of the summer, he can't get enough. (The girls, after all, are "fantastic.") He runs away from home for a last weekend fling before they close the City. Like a good suburban tourist, he picks up a hot chick who steals his money and gets beat up by a guy who steals his ID. Without an ID he can't leave the Dome before it closes for the year. He's trapped.
New York, of course, was not completely evacuated. It's full of an assortment of gangs, one of which picks Ron up because he happens to be good with machines. From that point on it might as well be any urban gang story, with the violence and girls-as-currency and internal power struggles and tragedy. (Until the end, which I'll get to in a minute. It'll be spoilery, because the end is the most interesting part, but the book isn't so amazing that I think it matters if you're spoiled.)
Apocalypse how? This isn't a worldwide apocalypse, but a local one (and very much a dystopia).
Here's the World-Weary Adult Who Explains It All (every YA post-apoc has one):
"Too many people crowded too close together. People started falling over in the streets, dead from pollution or mugging or just plain brain fever…. The banks threw up their hands and said the city was a bad investment. Eight million bad investments. Then the Federal Health people came in and said the environment inside the Dome had sunk below the level needed to sustain human life. Inside of a year everybody would be dead.
"You should have seen the rush! It was like a riot and an earthquake and a war, all at once. Went on for months. Families separated. Kids left behind…. People running every which way. When the dust finally cleared, the City was declared officially abandoned — empty, nobody here. So they sealed it off."
Some people stayed behind, of course. Including the World-Weary Adult, some black marketeers who make their money off starving kids and then go home to the Tracts at night, the gang kids' parents, and, as it turns out, all the people of color.
A lot of talking about race:
From the very beginning you know that the only black people Ron has ever seen are on TV, fighting the distant war in South America. When he joins the gang, it's made clear that the south of the City is all white gangs, while the north is run by their enemies, the black "Muslims," who are united under one leader, Timmy Jim.
After the devastating destruction of his own gang, Ron is taken to work for the Muslims, fixing their machines and training more repairmen. (It turns out, by the way, that "black" here includes Latin American and "Indian," which probably means Native American rather than South Asian. Asian Americans are never explicitly placed in the world of this book.) Timmy Jim adds this to the apocalypse story:
"Oh, they took out the whites, all right [when the city evacuated]. Rich and poor. Irish and Italian and WASP and all. They got out okay. But they kept us inside. When we tried to get out, they beat us back with clubs, electric prods, water cannons, lasers — they didn't let us out, man! They closed this City and wrote it off as a dead loss and claimed all of us were dead.
"That was why they closed the City down, man. The real reason! Wrote off all the welfare cases…. Left us to starve, to freeze, to be rat bait. They left us to fight with each other and kill ourselves off."
But Timmy Jim is more than a gang leader — he's a military commander, and he has big plans. First he got the black part of town under control (Ron describes it as cleaner, with working lights and open shops). Next the Muslims will fight until they unite all the white gangs under Timmy Jim, too. And then they'll invade Outside. All those black soldiers? Timmy Jim planted them somehow (the book has some plot holes the size of Manhattan Dome), so he knows they won't defend the Tracts.
Ron is stunned. He no longer feels particularly connected to his home, after a year in New York, but he can't imagine it invaded either. (And, I'm sure, can't imagine it controlled by a black man, though he doesn't say that explicitly.) At the same time, he's horrified by the starvation and poverty he's seen in the City. At the end of the book, he manages to get his ID back. He leaves when the City reopens in June, vowing to "change [the Outside people]," to "rub their noses in the filth they've left behind them."
So on the one hand, the blacks have their shit together way more than the whites — their part of town is the part that works. On the other hand, that's because they're run by a military dictatorship. I'm not sure what other sort of government would work for people sealed up in a lawless, starving City, but we're clearly supposed to be afraid of Timmy Jim and the idea of him invading Outside.
Ron is offered as the saner, safer alternative: the Tract whites can change, without the violent revolution. "Even if I have to make myself President," he vows — not "even if I have to blow some shit up." We white folks can fix ourselves from the inside, now that we understand the problem. It'll all be ok, we just need to be shown the way by one of our own!
13 vs. 31: The starkness of the color line felt very '70s to me — not that we don't still have plenty of racism, obviously, but I find it hard to imagine this book flying today. It doesn't even pay lip service to the idea that people of different races should try to get along.
A lot of the world-building doesn't hold together. How can New York be so crowded and full of shops and "sharp" girls if everyone who fills it in the summer is from the Tracts just like Ron? He says he feels like a "real" New Yorker when he buys his fancy duds, but there's no such thing. (Well, of course there is, but he doesn't know that yet.)
Also, it's implied that the soldiers don't mostly come from Cities. So where do the black men who become soldiers grow up? Are there poorer black Tracts? And where did all the poor white City people end up?
I've always had a fetish for closed societies, which is I think what appealed to me about this 20 years ago. (Also, who could resist a dramatic title like City of Darkness? Which, now that I think of it, is kind of a terrible pun…) I was more annoyed this time 'round by the things that didn't make sense. But I was still drawn in (as evidenced by the fact that this is the longest post ever).
Finally, an environmentalist sidebar for Earth Day: Ron and his friends gush a lot about how exciting all the noisy cars and crowded streets of the City are, compared to their own sanitary homes and electric cars or trains. The thrill of the City is in the transgression. When Ron leaves the City to shake things up Outside, it's the ultimate transgression — maybe he hasn't grown up, as we're led to expect from the usual trajectory of the YA novel; maybe he's just taking his thrill-seeking to the next level.
Covers: The first one was the cover of my childhood (sorry it's so tiny); you can't tell it's science fiction at all. It just looks like urban teen fic (with very '70s haircuts). The others are obviously SF, but you can't tell they're YA. I do kind of dig the one in the middle that looks like a graphic novel.
…Whew! Guess I made up for not posting in a week. Pseudo-academic wankery takes up some space, man. You get a cookie if you made it this far. A post-apocalyptic doom cookie.

CP Rail earnings rise but volumes slip
TORONTO, July 21 (Reuters) - Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd reported higher earnings on Tuesday even as revenue edged down on lower grain and crude oil shipments.
Net income at Canada's No. 2 railway rose to C$390 million ($300 million), or C$2.36 a share, from C$371 million, or C$2.11, a year earlier. Revenue slipped to C$1.65 billion from C$1.68 billion.

I had read about this and decided to give it a go.
Was in Vegas for the first time a few weeks back.
When checking in (at the Luxor) I folded a $20 between my credit card and drivers license. The guy upgraded me from a standard tower room to a suite. Had a seperate room with a TV, couch, table/chairs, wet bar, etc.
My buddy tried it last week at Excalibur and it worked for him too.

All Bottled Up
It's a whole lot easier to tell someone how you feel about them after a little wine. In theory, anyway.
Um, excuse me, Kelly? Hey, I just wanted to tell you... What do you mean "who am I?" I'm Brad! From Accounting? I sit behind you in the morning morale meeting. Yeah, for like two and a half years now. Really.
So, uh, like I was saying, I thought that sales presentation was really awesome. Those pie charts were, like, so rad. Really, I mean it. You're like totally the best team member ever, for real. So yeah, um, here's a little something to show my, uh, department's appreciation. I mean, obviously, 'cause doing this kind of thing on a personal level would be against office policy. But, well, I picked it out. Just so you know.
Anyway, you do like wine, right? 'Cause if you don't, I can totally take it... Oh cool. Yeah, uh, it's a bottle of Toolbox Cabernet Sauvignon. It's sort of an old-world style Cabernet, you know. Not that I'm a wine nerd or anything. I just thought you might like something a little less "in your face" than other Cabs or, say, guys from Marketing you're dating. Might be dating, I mean. 'Cause, I mean, I don't, like, know. Obviously, duh.
But when you get home, you should totally try it and, you know, try to focus on the dusty, earthy nose with hints of dark cherry and plum notes, as well as the lean structure. I don't want to give anything away, but there might be a hidden meaning in the hints of mint and anise on the palette that give way to a finish of dried blueberry and strawberry. There are a lot of layers to explore, just like with someone you know. Someone you're very close to. Proximity-wise, I mean. Just now.
Oh, of course, you need to go. Sorry. I should've figured you and the popular employees have big lunch plans or something. Uh, well, I guess I'll see you around, maybe? And, you know, let me know how you like the wine at the next meeting! Or in an email! That works, too! Whatever's best for you!

I'll finish school here in ATL, then I'll most likely end up in Raleigh for all the reasons mentioned in this thread. I've done the "big city" thing living in the city, I want somewhere a little more quiet with less traffic and job security, and a NHL team.
I love the people attitudes there, and I like how clean/safe the downtown is. I was looking around Real Estate prices for a nice area like Wake Forest and it reminds me of prices in Dallas. Prices in ATL and DC for a nice area to live in are just straight retarded, and they both have terrible traffic
Raleigh fits that bill!
Depending on your needs/wants/standards and price range I highly recommend Wakefield, Falls River, Heritage, and a neighborhood I used to live in called Dansforth off Burlington Mills road. Great neighborhood but I moved farther out of town into the country near Youngsville, love it!

SPCA of Texas - Society For The Prevention of Cruelty to Animals: SPCA of Texas Homepage
2 Recommendations
FancyPants's recommendation
In March of last year I adopted Jack + Jill. They were furry littermates that instantly bonded with me and loved eachother... naturally I couldn't separate a family so I brought them both home. They are now 50 and 45 pounds, full of energy and generally in love with life... at times that drives me to tears as I pick up pieces of chewed up shoe or get dragged down the street, or clean dog hair from my suit... but my life is so much better with them in it. Besides who else would I make grilled cheese sandwiches for? Or share my Cheetos? Or order Happy Meals for? Or let sleep (read: takle over) in the bed? On their "adopt-aversary" we are going back to the shelter to donate money to sick pups and hope that they find homes where they can eat cheese products and go to Day Care.
My Collections:
I love your recommendation of the SPCA of Texas.

We have 2 dogs and our younger one came from an abused home. Although we weren't looking for another dog at the time, we fell in love with him. Services like the SPCA are so needed.

Got a Zeus a week ago and all seemed great, filled the smilomizer per the directions and it leaked out a little
no big deal, seemed to work great. I topped off a couple times over the next few days with coffee wow and
noticed the draw was very difficult. Doesn't seem flooded, just very difficult to draw air through.
Any thoughts ???

Based on the poor availability of .380 I would think members would be all over this offer like a fat kid on cake.
With 9mm at 8.97 per 50ct box and .380 at $33 per 100ct box the deal is like a direct swap.
I can understand not wanting to part with any ammo so I will offer these two boxes of .380 for $50 per box if you would rather hold onto your ammo and part with some cash. Personally, I think the ammo swap is the better deal.

Special Education laws, regulations, and policy establish the requirements for educating students with disabilities.
Congress enacted IDEA based on its finding that "disability is a natural part of the human experience and in no way diminishes the right of individuals to participate in or contribute to society. Improving educational results for children with disabilities is an essential element of our national policy of ensuring equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for individuals with disabilities."
The U.S. Department of Education issues federal regulations for implementing IDEA and to govern the Assistance to States for Education of Children with Disabilities Program and the Preschool Grants for Children with Disabilities Program. These rules are published in Part 300 of the 34th Code of Federal Regulations (34 CFR).
2016 Rhode Island Part B IDEA Application
Each year the Rhode Island Department of Education applies for a grant award under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). A draft of the proposed application and accompanying use of funds spreadsheet are posted for a 60 day public review period and 30 day public comment period. The Rhode Island application and spreadsheet are available for public review and comment March 6, 2017 through May 4, 2017 at 4:00PM. Comments may be submitted through email to Karen Lovett at email@example.com or mailed to:
IDEA Part B Application-Public Comment
Attention: Karen Lovett
Rhode Island Department of Education
255 Westminster Street
Providence, RI 02903
General questions or requests for alternative formats of the application may be directed to Karen Lovett via email or by calling 401-222-8333.
Rhode Island establishes state regulations for implementing IDEA. These rules are designed to ensure a free, appropriate public education for children with disabilities, protect the rights of children with disabilities and their parents, assist agencies to provide for the education of children with disabilities, and to assess and ensure the effectiveness of these efforts. The RIDE Office of Student, Community and Academic Supports oversees these state regulations.
Commissioner Deborah A. Gist approved an Employment First policy for the Rhode Island Department of Education. Employment First is a commitment to students with intellectual/developmental disabilities to support their transition from public education into meaningful, community integrated training and employment opportunities at competitive wages upon exiting public education.
In 2014, the State of Rhode Island entered into a Consent Decree with the U.S. Department of Justice regarding violations of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act for operating day activity centers and sheltered workshops for individuals with intellectual /developmental disabilities. As part of this settlement, the State of Rhode Island and the involved agencies that support youth and adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities agreed to implement a state Employment First policy.
In approving this policy, RIDE is endorsing the belief Rhode Island students with intellectual /developmental disabilities are capable of working in integrated work settings for competitive wages and RIDE will work in partnership with the adult service system to achieve this outcome.
This notice is the state's model form for explaining parents' rights under special education law and regulations. Federal and state regulations require schools to provide you with such a notice containing a full explanation of your rights in special education.
The Rhode Island Regulations Governing the Education of Children with Disabilities provide for the establishment of state criteria for Specific Learning Disabilities. On June 4, 2009, the Rhode Island Board of Regents for Elementary and Secondary Education approved Rhode Island's State Criteria for Specific Learning Disabilities.
Please see the Special Education Resource page for more information.
On April 1, 2016 RIDE will submit the Sate Systemic Improvement Plan (SSIP) to the US Department of Education, Office of Special Education (OSEP). The State Systemic Improvement Plan is one of the State Performance Plan indicators (Indicator 17) and requires the state to identify a specific performance indicator and design a targeted improvement plan to address the performance target. The state team that has been working on this indicator is finalizing the state's submission and comments are welcome.
Please review the power point presentation (see link below) and submit your comments to email@example.com. Please include in the subject line: RI SSIP Implementation Plan.

The Downtime Seeker
Her challenge: Regina Clark, 39, a married assistant professor of journalism from Somerset, New Jersey, stays up until midnight or later to have downtime, even though she knows it's at the expense of getting a good night's sleep. (She often needs to be up at 5 a.m.) When she does lie down, her mind doesn't stop working, especially now that she is up for tenure at her teaching job and pregnant with twins. When she finally falls asleep, it's a very light sleep. She's awakened easily and often by things like her dog's barking or her husband's snoring. She normally manages to get about five hours of sleep but feels she needs a solid seven or eight hours to be fully functional. "I tend to be foggy or hazy during the day, unable to focus clearly or remember things properly, and I know it's related to not getting enough sleep," Regina says.
Expert advice: Regina should take 30 minutes or so earlier in the day to do the things that are keeping her up (like checking e-mail and writing lists). Also:
- She should ask her husband to have his snoring checked to make sure it's not a symptom of a more serious problem―and she might try wearing earplugs to block out the noise.
- In addition, she can keep the dog out of the bedroom and maybe have her husband agree to get up with their two-year-old baby for a few weeks while she focuses on improving her sleep pattern.
- Regina should practice "letting go," says psychologist Rubin Naiman. He encourages her to work on managing stress by exercising more and, if possible, delegating more at work so she doesn't feel so overwhelmed. "We're such an active, 'doing' culture, and then we get into bed and try to 'do' sleep," Naiman says. "You can't just 'go' to sleep, but you can learn to let go of waking."

camshaft gurus help?
ok now i have an intresting way of looking at this, my applicant idea is very simple. 400 sbc with 500 ft pounds at a 1000 rpm, (stump puller) but very flat torque like to 6000 rev limit with a peak hp to 5800 rpm. Many might say it wont do good with the 1/4 mile, but i say it will do decent with a 1/4 mile (if tractions at its best) now it is quite difficult to think of which is right for this appliction... Not to many would do it. Ok rear gear will be 2.73:1 ratio (idea is the steep or a lil lower would be great to twist with 500 ft pounds) or a lil lower. TH350 or TH400, 1500 stall or even factory. The cam shaft im looking for specifically needs to be a power band of 1000-5000ish or more rpms would be great. Any options or suggestions on how to get this application tight like that? Thanks and sorry about this if its annoying question, pretty sure you guys have better things to answer. Im really wanting to make it right on par
You aren't gonna make 500 ft/lb torque at just 1000 RPM from a naturally aspirated 400 SBC. Ordinarily the torque and HP peaks are much closer together than what you're proposing.
hmmm i geuss i was wrong.:drunk: but i know i can definatly do 450 foot pounds at 2500 rpms with what i got on the dyno sim :mwink: maybe ill just go with that idea. Thanks for the help. Tryna build my rod for like mild which i believe 450 foot pounds and 390 hp peak would be for a 400 sbc. Hey itll also be more streetable too :thumbup:

WASHINGTON -- The one thing no one has suspected Dzhokhar Tsarnaev of being is a closet essayist. The idea of this young Chechen/Dagestani/Khrgyz man who, with his brother is accused of the vicious Boston Marathon bombings, making notes on his ideas had not entered the bio.
And yet, as I write, news sources are reporting new information about Dzhokhar. Lying helplessly in the landlocked boat he was hiding inside of, in the small Massachusetts town outside Boston where they had fled, he wrote several primitive but revealing thoughts on the hull of the bullet-pocked boat with a pen he found. Since these are the first revelations of this young would-be Trotsky leaking out his likely last words to the world, they are probably quite honest -- and they would be totally admissible in court.
The most important thing he says is that, far from carrying out his nihilistic act with his brother because of persecution in Russia's war-wracked Chechnya province, they had attacked the Boston Marathon because of American soldiers on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan and "crimes against Muslims" across the world.
He seems to know that his brother is dead. But he will not mourn him, because he knows that Tamerlan is already in paradise, where he himself will soon join him. Yes, there was "collateral damage" in the marathon bombings, but that is simply the way of war.
It had seemed that there would be not really very much more to discover about the marathon bombers. But these simple words -- as he imagined he was about to be killed -- do help to clarify some elements of the case.
Since it was discovered several days after the attack that Tamerlan, the older and more ideological of the brothers, had taken a lengthy six-month trip to Dagestan last year, ostensibly to see his mother and father, analysts have never stopped talking about the fact that he may well have made contact with the multiple radical Islamist groups there, hiding in the hills and ready to fight their old nemesis, Russia.
Throughout Central Asian history, the Russians have been exceptionally brutal to the Chechens and other Caucasus mountain people, deporting them from their native lands in 1944 and fighting two recent wars against them, one in which they leveled the Chechen capital, Grozny.
This ingrown Chechen hatred of the Russians and so many other persecuting peoples may well have inspired Tamerlan, but now it seems unlikely that it inspired Dzhokhar, who was born much later in the saga. So this gives a new twist to the already poisoned story.
For if the younger brother was not inspired by Chechnya, the first cause, then his secondary hatred against Americans in Arab lands opens up even more the bigger question: Are American "boots on the ground in the Middle East," as so many have claimed, the real reason for young men in the region, and even here in the U.S., to turn to radical groups in the Muslim Brotherhood and even al-Qaida?
One should never forget the paradigm for much of what we are finding today. Remember, it was at the beginning of the Afghan war against the Soviets, from 1979 onward, that the U.S. sent Special Forces to train Afghans and Pakistanis to fight the Soviets more effectively. Their fighting was so effective that these "Mujahadin" won the war.
However, as the Soviets were ushered out across bridges in the north, the American trainers were leaving of their own will in the south. The men they trained, whom we left to themselves, became so disillusioned with America that they formed the radical and retrogressive Taliban, which we are still fighting today.
You could say that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev could well be like one of these young men -- and you would be right. We have not understood how all over the world young men with little to do, hanging around street corners, looking for answers to meaningless lives, are the fuel of terrorist fires -- whether in Beirut, Cairo, Mumbai or Boston!
There have already been a number of American boys making bombs and trying to set them off in New York. These boys are looking for adventure, for importance, for power. This is a very cheap way to get it. And in a country that barely teaches its own civics and history, it becomes easier all the time.
The Boston Marathon story is far from over. We can take enormous pride in the way the police, the FBI, the CIA and all the other first-responders did their jobs. But there will be new revelations, and we must continue to learn from them.

Comment posted If I want to lose weight, should I do the 'Classic' or 'Lean' P90X routines? by Jalila.
Hi Nancy,
I'm will be 29 in a couple weeks, i'm about 250lbs (too scared to go on the scale right now) and 5'5. My husband is worst. I have being reading a lot of you're posts and I subscribed at beachbody. I want to change or lifestyle. My birthday gift to myself is getting my health and life back on track before my 30th. So my husband and I want to start one of the programs. The problem is I dont know wich one to do, I read so much, i'm totally confused. A friend gave us he's Insanity and P90 DVDs. I like insanity because there is no equipement required and we're king of tight right now. But it's seems difficult for someone carring that much extra weight. P90 seem a little bit easier but it requires a bar and I know i wont be able to get one right know and It's not the king of exercise i was ever able to do when i was training (10years ago). Can you help me choose a program? I want to get everything ready to start in a couple weeks.

Despite the number of years we are talking about, it was only sometime last year that i finally on top of my head suggested to bring our neighbouring friends a.k.a Singaporeans there. Thank god they didn't disappoint, especially with their signature "Yat Chi Kuat" Pork rib. That said and done, it took me another good half year to finally get hold of a camera and re-visit them for some loving Chinese food.
Robson Heights is a very simple seafood chinese restaurant, almost no frills. Although a look at their seafood tank, you have a variety of cheap fishes to exorbitant fishes like the empurau at RM65/100gm (only upon reservation), not to mention their meaty crabs.
The Sizzling Beancurd was rather homogenous. Should have ordered something else.
The whole reason we were here again, the ribs. This time, deboned which made life easier, the sweet sticky sauce and the soft succulent meat makes for a perfect formula.
Overall, a good find and i forsee myself having some family dinners over here and trying many more dishes. Although do note that if you choose to dine between the peak hours of 7-8pm, a waiting time of almost half an hour is required.
