Wake Up American Before It's Too Late
Over the last few weeks we've been hearing all about the controversy over the actions of Representative Anthony Weiner. No matter what channel you turn on, it's seems to be the leading story if not one of the top three. It doesn't matter what channel I watch, it's all the same information with just a different spin on it. The Casey Anthony trail is another one of those stories that the American sheeple seemed brainwashed to watch it. It's like watching the O.J. Simpson trail all over again.
The main stream media has been bought out by Washington. I've seem it for years how CNN, MSNBC and the other left-leaning station will cover stories about things that don't affect our lives in any major way. But now even FOX has taken the same path as to not informing the American people of major issues or policy changes coming out of Washington. It gotten to the point where I've stopped watching these "news" outlets and searching for the real issues at hand that are affecting the freedoms and the quality of life for Americans.
We have major problems in our country as well as the world. There is still a problem in Japan with the Fukushima Nuclear plant, never mind the problem at the Ft. Calhoun Nuclear plant in Nebraska that many don't even know about. Why? Because the federal government are the ones responsible for the problem in Nebraska by opening up the dams to save other interests.
We have a president that has taken us into another war without Congressional approval and Congress is looking to sue the president to get the troops out of Libya. The House of Representative have every right and duty to impeach Barack Obama and they try to "fool" us by some frivolous law suit. On top of all that, we have reports coming out of North Korea about their capabilities for using a "super EMP" nuke. If it wasn't for the different websites I go on, I wouldn't even know about these stories. They are other stories I read that I can't even confirm to really want to discuss here on this blog.
We as Americans need to stay away from the lame stream media and the news they spew out every night. It's allowing Washington to get away with showing us how incompetent they really are. Of course there will always be a large amount of "brainwashed" people who will never get out from under the vail of lies they are fed each and every night.
We can only start with ourselves and do what we can to keep as many others informed of the "real" news going on out there.

USA seemed to arrive late on the international scene, with their focus primarily on other sports. Over the past decade or two they've started to improve rapidly, showing they can one day be a force on the international stage. From legends like Brad Friedel, to Clint Dempsey, the fans have had talents to idolize, but they're waiting for a top talent to take them one step further, like they expected Freddy Adu to do, but that never panned out. Within the near future it looks very likely that USA will become a dominant international soccer team. For now it's Dempsey on the back of their soccer jerseys.

LONG BEACH - Business marketing consultant Daryl Supernaw surprised the Long Beach political establishment by beating two better-financed opponents to finish first in April's 4th City Council District primary.
The political order righted itself on Tuesday, as incumbent Councilman Patrick O'Donnell sprinted to a 12.2 percentage-point victory in the 4th District runoff, according to unofficial results from the City Clerk's Office.
O'Donnell will become the first council member to serve a third term since term limits were instituted when he is sworn in July 17.
"It appears there was no magic in this race for Supernaw," said Jeff Adler, a Signal Hill-based political consultant. "He was out-fundraised and out-organized."
On those points, Supernaw faced long odds.
O'Donnell, a favorite of organized labor, raised $65,966 this year, according to finance reports. Supernaw accepted no political action committee contributions and collected $7,296 in the same period.
As the election neared, O'Donnell's union supporters, including the Long Beach Police Officers Association Independent Expenditure Committee and Long Beach Firefighters PAC, Local 372, pumped tens of thousands of dollars into the campaign to back their candidate, records show.
Late Tuesday, Supernaw took a shot at the reality he faced over the past few months.
"I'm really hopeful that people saw a different type of campaign ... a campaign where (someone is) not beholden to special interests," Supernaw said.
O'Donnell disagreed that he is obligated to anyone in a phone interview Wednesday.
"I think my record reflects that I bring a balanced approach to council," O'Donnell said. "My special interests are my constituents."
He said his campaign, which began as a write-in effort until he qualified for the runoff, differed from his two earlier runs in its focus on educating voters that they were able to write his name on the primary ballot even though he had already been elected to two terms.
As priorities, O'Donnell listed keeping his standing monthly community meeting to make himself accessible to residents and continuing to work on the budget.
That may involve protecting public safety, which as the largest slice of the budget has absorbed the most cuts in recent years, he said.
"We may have to look to a modified proportionate share," said O'Donnell, "but we don't have all the facts and figures."

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer
As a young hockey player growing up in Mukilteo, Molly Doner was good enough to get recruited by some of the nation's top college programs.
But after receiving a scholarship offer from the University of Wisconsin, where her father Lexi once played, it was sort of like a breakaway goal into an empty net. No way would she pass up the chance to play at the same school, wear the same colors and even the same jersey number — No. 9 — as her dad did three decades before.
Imagine, then, the thrill for the entire Doner family when Molly took the ice for her first college home game in October.
"It was kind of a surreal moment," said Molly, a 2012 graduate of Kamiak High School. "When I was putting my jersey on (before the game), and when I saw 'Doner' on the back and the No. 9, I got goose bumps. I went completely numb. I was thinking, 'This is what my dad did several years ago, and now I'm doing exactly what he did.'"
It was much the same for Lexi Doner, sitting in the stands with his wife Jackie. Seeing his daughter in a red and white Wisconsin uniform, "it was sort of a dream come true," he said.
"When your kids are young you think, 'Gee, wouldn't it be neat for them to go back to the alma mater and play.' And then when it actually becomes a reality, it's a very happy moment."
Lexi Doner took up hockey as a boy growing up in the Seattle area. As a teenager he lived in Edmonds and attended Meadowdale High School, but for his senior year he transferred to the Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass., a school with a prestigious hockey program.
He played at Wisconsin from 1979-84 and helped the Badgers win two national championships. He later played two professional seasons in Germany before returning to the Pacific Northwest, where today he owns and operates the Kent Valley Ice Center, one of the region's premier venues for adult and youth hockey.
The family has six children, all hockey players. Son Ryan, who is 20, plays for the Kindersley Klippers in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League. Molly, who has her 19th birthday today, has been joined in Wisconsin by her 17-year-old sister Melanie, a high school senior who plays for a top U19 team in Madison. Brothers Max (16), Ian (13) and Lexi Jr. (11) live with their parents in Mukilteo and are also avid players.
"When you're growing up, you always aspire to be like your parents," explained Molly, no doubt speaking for her brothers and sister. "You want to do something your parents did. (Playing hockey) was never forced, it was just something I wanted to do. Then it became something I loved.
"And at that point," she said, "you really couldn't keep me off the ice."
"Being a player myself, I've always appreciated what hockey has to offer," Lexi said. "The game did a lot for me, so when my kids were old enough to get on the ice it was second nature to provide them with skates and let them go if they wanted to."
Molly played softball and ran cross country at Kamiak, but hockey was always her passion. So much so, in fact, that she spent much of her senior year — from late September to mid-March — at the North American Hockey Academy in Stowe, Vt. With an academic curriculum from Kamiak, she spent 51/2 months engaged in a rigorous hockey schedule of practices and games.
The Wisconsin scholarship offer came after a Vermont tournament in early September of 2011, "and it was one of the happiest days of my life," she said. "They have a phenomenal program, so (playing hockey there) was always a dream."
Her coach is Mark Johnson, one of the great names in American hockey. The son of longtime college and NHL coach Bob Johnson, Mark Johnson was the leading scorer on the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team that won the gold medal at Lake Placid, N.Y. He went on to play 11 seasons in the NHL, and in 2010 coached the U.S. Olympic women's hockey team at the Winter Games in Vancouver, B.C.
The chance to play for Johnson "was one of the big influencing factors for me (going to Wisconsin)," Molly said. "It's an absolute honor to play for him. When you're sitting in a room with a man who's achieved so much, how can you not look at him with admiration and respect? … I can't speak highly enough about him."
Hockey is hugely popular in the upper Midwest, with Madison being no exception. This season the Badgers women's team moved into the new LaBahn Arena, a 2,500-seat facility that is usually packed to overflowing on game nights.
For that first home game back in October, Molly said, "I remember stepping on the ice for warmups and it was already almost a full house 40 minutes before the game. I'd never played in front of more than 100 people before, and to see that much red I remember getting chills."
She plays forward and has moved between the team's second and fourth lines as she adjusts to the college game. The game is much quicker at the NCAA Division I level, she said, "and you just have to be that much stronger with the puck and that much stronger on your skates."
Her immediate goal is to help Wisconsin win another national championship — under Johnson, the Badgers have won four of the last seven NCAA titles. But as she looks further in the future, she dreams of representing the United States at the Olympic Games.
"I can honestly say that (being an Olympian) would be the biggest honor," she said. "You're putting on a jersey to represent your country and that would be unbelievable. Words can't even describe how much that would mean. It would be the pinnacle."

College of Arts and Sciences scholars garner honors
By Peggy Binette, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-7704
Two professors in the College of Arts and Sciences have been recognized for their scholarship and service to their profession.
Stanley Dubinsky, a professor of linguistics, has been chosen as the first executive editor of "Language," the premiere journal of the Linguistic Society of America and will provide editorial oversight of its print article content, working with the general editor of LSA publications. Laura Woliver, a political science professor, was awarded the Erika Fairchild Award at the annual meeting the Southern Political Science Association, held in New Orleans, earlier this month.
Dubinsky, who joined USC's faculty in 1991 and also directs the university's Jewish Studies Program, is an expert in syntax, semantics and linguistic theory. A prolific writer, Dubinsky has written two books, including "Understanding Language through Humor," which was released last year, three edited volumes and more than 50 journal articles. He previously served as book review editor for LSA's journal "Language."
Woliver, who has a joint appointment in Women's and Gender Studies, conducts
research in American politics that focuses on gender and politics and interest groups and social movements.
The Erika Fairchild Award has been given every two years by the Women's Caucus for Political Science- South since 1995 and honors the memory of a past president. It is awarded to an individual with a strong record of scholarship, commitment to students and teaching, service to the profession and who embodies a collegial spirit.
Woliver has been active in the Women's Caucus for Political Science, including as the organization's president in 2004 – 2005. She has written two books, "The Political Geographies of Pregnancy" and "From Outrage to Action: The Politics of Grass-Roots Dissent" and dozens of journal articles as well as dozens of book chapters, reviews and essays on women's rights, reproductive politics, grass-roots organizing and political protest. She joined USC's faculty in 1985.

Help your trick-or-treaters stay safe
Help your trick-or-treaters stay safe
By Attorney General Roy Cooper
Fall is finally here and that means Halloween is around the corner. This can be a fun and creative time for families, but we also want it to be safe.
Planning your kids' trick-or-treat routes and checking their costumes and candy carefully are the keys to celebrating Halloween safely. If you're a homeowner who expects trick-or-treaters to visit, there are also some simple things you can do to help neighborhood kids stay safe.
Tips for trick-or-treaters
If your children plan to trick-or-treat, make sure they visit neighborhoods they know well and visit only houses that are well-lit.
A parent or other responsible adult should
accompany young children. Make sure older kids trick-or-treat in a group, and set a curfew.
Plan the route your kids will take and tell them how you expect them to behave. Make sure kids know not to go inside a house or get into a car without your permission.
Check the
sex offender registry
when planning your child's trick-or-treat route. You can view maps that pinpoint registered offenders' addresses in your neighborhood, and sign up to get email alerts when an offender moves nearby.
Trick-or-treaters should always carry a flashlight with fresh batteries
and all children need to know their home number and how to call 9-1-1 in case of emergency.
Remind children to walk, not run, from house to house and to stick to sidewalks rather than cut across yards. If your neighborhood lacks sidewalks, make sure your kids know to walk on the left side of the road facing traffic.
Tips on costumes
Help your child choose a costume that is brightly colored or will reflect light, or add reflective tape.
Make sure that costumes and shoes fit well to prevent trips and falls.
Select costumes with labels that say flame resistant or fire-retardant.
Consider non-toxic, hypoallergenic makeup or a hat instead of a mask that can block eyesight.
Choose costume props that are safe and won't cause injury; for example, a sword or broomstick made from cardboard.
Tape or pin your child's name, address and phone number to his or her costume.
Tips on treats
Check all treats before your children eat anything. If your children are old enough to trick-or-treat without you, make it clear that they must bring all candy home for your inspection before they eat even one piece.
Throw away any candy that's unwrapped or partially wrapped, or has a strange odor, color or texture.
To keep kids from munching on candy while they trick-or-treat, make sure they eat a good meal first or send a snack with them.
Tell children not to accept any unwrapped food or open drinks they may be offered.
Tips for homeowners
Remove tripping hazards such as flowerpots, tree limbs or garden hoses from around your porch and yard before neighborhood children come knocking.
Turn on your porch light to let trick-or-treaters know they're welcome.
Make sure your pets are secured.
Place jack-o-lanterns with lit candles out of the reach of kids and away from anything flammable.
If you plan to be away for trick-or-treating or a Halloween party, don't advertise the fact that your home will be unoccupied on social networking sites like Facebook.

ST. PAUL, MN – Acres 4.0, a Las Vegas-based gambling equipment manufacturer, has won official approval to manufacture its iPad-based electronic pull-tab games. Along with tablet-based electronic bingos, these networked devices will be used in Minnesota's new gambling market.
According to local sources, some 1,200 charities currently offer paper pull-tabs and bingo games in bars and restaurants statewide.
Acres 4.0 founder and chief executive John Acres told VT that the state's new electronic gaming market could comprise as many as 25,000 devices in 5,000 locations. Barring unforeseen regulatory hurdles, the rollout could begin this fall, he said.
"There is absolutely no reason game and jukebox operators couldn't distribute pull-tab games, once proper licensing is obtained," said Acres. However, if the operator didn't find it worthwhile to offer paper pull-tab products, "they may not find electronic ones any more attractive."
Under regulations imposed by the law, operators would apparently be limited to retaining only 15% to 20% of the revenues generated by networked pull-tab and bingo devices.
The Minnesota Operators of Music and Amusements has made no official statement on the electronic pull-tabs and the state's gambling market in general. Contacted by VT, MOMA board member Chuck Leininger of CDL Inc. (Maple Grove) said he believes manufacturers and charities would find valuable advantages in working with vendors, who can provide both good locations and professional service. "If we all work together, there is a shot that this market can be successful," he said.
As reported earlier by Vending Times, Gov. Mark Dayton on May 14 signed a bill to create a legal sector of electronic pull-tab and bingo games for charitable groups statewide. The bill took effect on July 1. Tax revenues from the games will be used to finance a new football stadium for the Minnesota Vikings. | SEE STORY

text: Posted December 17, 2012 Merry Christmas Panthers Fans! It seems you have a NFL caliber team. Most of us are just wishing it happened before playoff elimination in November. On with the grades.... Offense: It looks as if Chudzinski is starting to realize his 90% read option offense is a complete joke. Either that, or the injuries to the offensive line are forcing him to abandon the over complicated and ineffective scheme for a more basic approach. It remains to be seen if Chud will return to the masturbatory read option with a healthy offense. Lets hope not. Cam Newton continues to play like a top QB in this league. Steve Smith is a monster. Heck, even the running game looked good. Overall, the offensive performance was good enough to beat any team in this league. Offensive Grade: A Defense: As remarkable as the offensive performance was, it may be more so with the defense. Riddled with significant injuries, the defense was able to almost shut out the Chargers if not for a Deangelo WIlliams fumble. Most of this can be credited to the defensive line who took advantage of the Chargers offensive line. Even our backup corners and safety were given the luxury of covering for a very short amount of time. The prospect of next season with a healthy Beason, Edwards, and Gamble in the mix along with a new free safety is enough to keep our defensive hearts warm all off season. Defensive Grade: A Coaching: Ron Rivera has at times been severely out coached this season. Have the last two games been an anomaly or has he learned and improved as a head coach? We sometimes forget that head coaches, and especially first time Head Coaches, have a learning curve at well. Some point to the success of Tampa Bay or the fast success of Atlanta after hiring college coaches, but those were college head coaches. The learning curve for a NFL coordinator is much greater than that of a Head Coach from a university. If Rivera can win out, he just may have saved his job. I believe the new Panthers GM will give him another year, but will also require some changes to be made to his staff.

What's your opinion on internal examinations?
I am interested to know what the opinions of others are on having internal examinations in labour.
With my first baby this was not even a question I considered. I assumed internal examinations were necessary in order for the midwives or doctors to know how dilated a woman was and also to ascertain when she were ready to move to the pushing stage of labour.
However, when I was pregnant with my second baby I read pretty much anything I could get my hands on about the different birth choices available and also what could be included in a birth plan.
I learnt that I did not have to have internal examinations. In fact, some sources state that internal examinations can slow labour (as they bring the woman out of the deep state she may be in during labour). Many experienced midwives are able to tell what stage of labour a woman is in by factors such as: the noises the woman is making, the length and frequency of the contractions, the position the woman feels most comfortable in etc.
So with my second labour I only had one internal examination - when I arrived at the hospital. I felt other internal examinations would be too intrusive and had as my birth preference not to have them (unless they became medically essential).
Did you have internal examinations in your labour? Is this something you considered/ would consider commenting on in your birth plan?
Best wishes,

The word I started, I realized something.
I hate doing throw ups.
So, instead, I'm actually piecing that whole word.
I'm already half way down drawing out the word, when I only spent about an hour on it.
But, I'm going to restart it on long board instead of papers getting glued together for the word.
Looks messy, and plus. It took up five sheets of tabloid paper for the whole word. (11 in. x17 in. paper).
Once I'm done, which will be a few days, possibly up to a week.
I'll post it somewhere on this site.
This was just for fun, but I'm sure you guys would like to see this rediciously long ass word into a style.

Las Vegas • The BYU men's basketball team turned its thoughts to the National Invitational Tournament on Saturday, the day after suffering a troubling conference tournament loss to a team with a losing record that it was favored to beat by 12 points.
The Cougars (21-11) did so knowing that their string of six straight appearances in the NCAA Tournament will be snapped in a week when Selection Sunday will come and go with no invitation to the Big Dance arriving in Provo.
BYU last played in the NIT seven years ago, when it lost 77-67 to Houston. The tournament for also-rans is a distinct possibility for the Cougars. The big question is whether BYU's late-season swoon cost it a home game.
The Cougars have lost three of their last four games and five of their last eight. The NIT's first-round games are scheduled to be played March 19 or 20, and bids are handed out a few hours after NCAA tourney bids.
Another major question facing the Cougars this weekend after their 72-69 loss to San Diego (16-17) on Friday night in a West Coast Conference quarterfinal game at Orleans Arena: Why do they struggle so much in conference tournaments?
They now are just 9-8 in conference tournaments in coach Dave Rose's eight-year tenure, although Friday's loss marked the first time in the Rose era they have dropped their first game in a tournament.
The last time that happened was in 2006, when they fell 74-70 to Utah in a Mountain West Conference first-round game in Denver. The Cougars have not won a conference tournament since 2001.
"We competed really hard but played maybe not as well as we are capable of playing," Rose acknowledged after losing for the second straight time to USD, which lost five straight games after defeating BYU 74-68 on Feb. 7 in San Diego. "We just couldn't sustain the lead a couple of times. We had a possession or two where we could have increased the lead, but they always seemed to have an answer."
And the Cougars had no answer for USD sophomore Johnny Dee, who had 25 points on 7-for-17 shooting. His 3-point play with 2 minutes, 21 seconds remaining was the play of the game.
"Give San Diego credit," Rose said. "They were extremely aggressive defensively, challenging passes, challenging balls in the post and when the opportunity came offensively, they just made the plays they needed to make."
And the Cougars didn't, again.
San Diego guard Chris Anderson, who added 16 points and got to the rim pretty much any time he wanted against BYU's defense, said the Toreros were confident they could upset the Cougars.
The win in San Diego "gave us a lot of confidence that we could beat them," he said. "After we won at home, we knew we were capable of it. We just had to stick to our plan and execute, and we knew it would work out for us."

Office of Public and Intergovernmental Affairs
Remarks by Secretary Eric K. Shinseki
Homeless Veterans Resource Center Ribbon-cutting
Dayton, OH
April 7, 2010
A time-honored and sacred duty is caring for those who cannot care for themselves—to open our doors to those in need of food, shelter, and clothing. That thread of selflessness is woven into our national character—making us stronger, more generous, and enduring as a people.
Our Nation's Veterans are very much a part of that fabric—their strength is America's strength. Throughout the ages, they have unhesitatingly safeguarded our way of life. In honoring their service, VA is keeping faith with Abraham Lincoln's promise, made in 1865, to care for those who have borne the battle, and for their families. Nowhere is this more evident than here in Dayton, where advocacy and caring for Veterans goes back, literally, to Lincoln's day.
This medical center, one of VA's three oldest hospitals, was built just two years after Lincoln delivered his second inaugural address, laying the foundation for what is today the world's greatest health care system. Generations of physicians, nurses, and medical staff have nurtured Ohio's Veterans here—a legacy of which we can all be proud. Today, in partnership with the 88th Medical Group, we are sharing facilities and resources to provide the best possible care for Veterans and the men and women of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
Wright-Patt has its own proud legacy stretching back to 1904, when Wilbur and Orville Wright began to fine tune their "flyer" at the meadows of Huffman Prairie Flying Field, not far from here. Just as Wright-Patt is central to the history of aviation, so, too, is the Dayton VA Medical Center central to the history of national health care for Veterans.
With today's opening of this Veterans resource center, we are adding capability to VA's legacy of care here in Ohio. I am delighted to be able to share this moment with so many leaders who are dedicated to our mission, and who have helped to care for the men and women who serve in uniform.
Great endeavors result from great collaboration—and VA certainly did not arrive here alone. This center is the result of years of planning and partnership, the hard work of many organizations and individuals, but most especially the enthusiastic energy and leadership of the Volunteers of America of Greater Ohio. It also represents the dedication of Ohio's local, state, and national leaders—from city hall to the state legislature to the halls of Congress.
I want to thank all of you for your commitment to transforming the vision of caring for Ohio's homeless Veterans into the reality we break ground on today. This facility will be a rung on a ladder that leads to the restoration of Veterans' dignity, their hope, and their future. It will help relieve the pain of those who have so little—after having given so much.
The need for this center is driven, in part, by two very distinct images of the men and women who have served our nation—two incongruent images.
The first image is this—and it is one most familiar to everyone in this audience of caregivers and volunteers. Each year, around 60 percent of high school graduates go on to colleges and universities—some version of higher education. Of the remaining 40 percent or so, some undergo vocational training, and some immediately enter the workforce. Fewer others, still, join the less than 1 percent of Americans who volunteer to serve in our nation's armed forces.
After basic training and arrival at their first units, they quickly become valued and trusted members of high-performing teams—tough, motivated, and extremely dedicated. With excellent leadership, they go forward each and every day, to perform the complex, the difficult, and the dangerous missions. On some days, they are asked to do the impossible. Think of what they've been asked to do, and what they've accomplished, with unwavering commitment and without complaint, these last eight years in Iraq and Afghanistan.
But there is a second image: Veterans suffer disproportionately from homelessness, depression, substance abuse, and suicide, and they are well up there in joblessness as well. 107,000 of them sleep on the streets of our nation—and another 40,000 Veterans are released from prison each year.
What's wrong with these disparate images? To be sure, there are far fewer Veterans in the second image than in the first, but they are the same youngsters. How did we fail to continue the kinds of successes they achieved while in uniform? How do we keep them from entering that downward spiral of joblessness, depression, and substance abuse that often leads to homelessness and, sometimes, to suicide?
It's not about them; it's about us.
At VA, our goal is to never allow those youngsters in image #1 to become part of image #2, and to return those in image #2 to lives as productive as possible.
This Veterans Resource Center helps us accomplish those goals. Here, homeless Veterans will find respite—transitional housing, job training, employment placement service, case management, and a well-trained staff to help break a downward spiral that often includes substance abuse and mental health issues. It can mean the renewal of hope. It can be the place that relieves the burdens and despair associated with life on the street or in shelters. It is the open door to a stranger in need—the promise of a new beginning, from a grateful nation.
Now, let's cut this ribbon and launch this center of compassion and caring for Ohio's homeless Veterans. Thank you.

Amazon Rises After Sales, North American Margins Improve
Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN), the world's largest Internet retailer, surged after reporting gains in sales and North American operating margin as it benefited from investments in warehouses and a jump in holiday shopping.
Fourth-quarter sales climbed 22 percent to $21.3 billion, the Seattle-based company said yesterday in a statement. Analysts on average had projected $22.2 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Operating margin in North America widened to 5 percent from 2.9 percent a year earlier. Shares rose as much as 12 percent in extended trading.
Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bezos is pumping money into new warehouses, seeking to draw consumers away from malls with Amazon's two-day delivery and massive selection. The company added 20 shipment hubs last year alone. The wider margins show that investment is starting to pay off, and is helping Amazon grab a bigger share of the record $42.3 billion in online holiday spending, according to ComScore Inc. (SCOR)
"If you break apart their businesses, the U.S. is more mature than some of their international markets, where they're in the very early stages," said Tom Forte, an analyst at Telsey Advisory Group. "I wouldn't be surprised if investors are looking at that performance -- operating margin in North America -- as a sign that, despite the continued rate of investment by the company, there's an opportunity for margin expansion."
Margin Growth
Amazon shares climbed 4.8 percent to $272.76 at the close in New York, the biggest gain since Oct. 26. The stock jumped 45 percent in 2012.
The operating margin growth in North America was driven in part by an increase in sales on its website by third parties, which made up 39 percent of units purchased in the fourth quarter, compared with 36 percent a year earlier, Amazon Chief Financial Officer Tom Szkutak said on a conference call yesterday. Those purchases boost margins because Amazon collects a commission on any item sold by an outside vendor and books that income as 100 percent profit.
Fourth-quarter operating income rose to $405 million, the company said, compared with an average estimate of $212.1 million. Net income fell to $97 million, or 21 cents a share, from $177 million, or 38 cents, a year earlier, Amazon said.
Fulfillment Spending
Spending on fulfillment jumped 36 percent to $2.26 billion, making up the largest percentage of Amazon's costs, the company said. Worldwide operating margin in the quarter was 1.9 percent, the sixth straight period of margins narrower than 2 percent. Operating margin, a measure of profitability, reflects operating income as a percentage of net sales.
The warehouse expansion, while expensive, is helping to bring down transportation costs, Szkutak said. Shipping costs totaled 4.5 percent of worldwide sales, compared with 5.4 percent a year earlier.
First-quarter operating income will range from a loss of $285 million to profit of $65 million, Amazon said. Sales will rise to $15 billion to $16.6 billion, compared with an average analyst estimate of $16.8 billion.
Amazon is the only company "that is able to leverage a global fulfillment network to drive disruption of traditional offline retail sales," Scott Devitt, an analyst at Morgan Stanley, wrote in a note to clients. "The market is underestimating the long-term international sales opportunity and the cost leverage that will occur as fulfillment investments drive lower unit-variable shipping costs."
E-Commerce Surge
The spending on fulfillment may help Amazon gain share in a worldwide e-commerce market that Devitt estimated will reach $1 trillion by 2016, up from $512 billion last year. By then, Amazon's share will be 23.5 percent, pushing the company's total sales to $166 billion, he projected in a Jan. 6 note.
Strengthening its shipping network helps Amazon improve service for Prime customers, who pay $79 a year for access to two-day shipping and a selection of video content at no extra cost. That group is getting larger and tends to make more purchases on Amazon than regular users, Szkutak said.
"Prime customers who are watching free content through Prime Instant Video has gone up dramatically year over year," he said. "They're also purchasing paid content. They watch free but they're also paying for new content."
The Kindle Fire HD tablet computer was Amazon's most popular item in 2012, the company said, with its line of Kindle tablets and e-book readers holding the top four spots on Amazon's worldwide best-seller list at year-end. In 2012, Amazon also opened Kindle Stores for Brazil, Canada, China and Japan to sell popular books, including titles in the local languages.
Bezos has said the company sells its Kindle Fire near the cost of production, aiming to make money from purchases of digital media on the device.

¨ Avoid using stand-alone "dial-up" ATM machines. Use the ATM at the bank instead of the convenience store.
¨ Use your card as a credit card whenever possible. Credit purchases are usually protected by the credit card company against fraud, and it prevents a thief from completely wiping out your checking account and racking up insufficient funds charges against you.
¨ Closely guard your pin number. Do not share it, write it down and carry it with you, or allow bystanders to see you enter it.
¨ Know your bank's policies regarding fraud. Do they refund money taken fraudulently? Do they notify you of suspected fraud? How do you report a suspected fraud?
¨ Keep a close check on your accounts. Notify the bank immediately if you see a charge you did not make.
¨ Only carry what you need. Keep social security cards and rarely used credit cards in a safe place at home.
¨ Prepare for the worst. Make a copy of everything you carry in your wallet, front and back. Keep these copies in a safe place at home in case your wallet is stolen or misplaced. The banking institution's phone number to report a lost or stolen card is printed on the back of the card, and it is helpful to have the full card number readily available if you need to call.

Top 2011 picks set for Minors bows
By Rob Kuhn / Special to MLB.com | April 4, 2012 3:19 PM ET
Gerrit Cole, Bradenton Marauders
A few weeks after locking up the No. 1 overall pick of the 2011 Draft just 15 minutes before the Aug. 15 signing deadline, the Pittsburgh Pirates decided to turn Gerrit Cole loose on the highly talented Arizona Fall League. In his first outing, the UCLA product reached triple digits on the radar gun. He went on to compile a 2-0 record in five starts, fanning 16 over 15 innings.
Now, the 21-year-old right-hander is poised to make his pro debut, and his first destination on the path to Pittsburgh will be with the Bradenton Maurauders in the Florida State League. His next stop is likely to be Double-A Altoona. So, though it's still cool up North, the Florida sunshine should provide a welcome stop for the California native, who will seek to dominate Class A Advanced opponents as he develops his game. Local fans can look for occasional triple-digit speed, while Bucs fans everywhere salivate over another premier addition to their talent-laden MiLB pitching cadre.
Danny Hultzen, Jackson Generals
Taken by Seattle with the second overall pick in 2011, left-hander Danny Hultzen starts a rung higher on his organizational ladder than Cole does. The University of Virginia product starts his ascent at Double-A Jackson with a pair of fellow pitching prospects that rivals Pittsburgh's duo of Cole and Jameson Taillon for upside potential.
In 18 AFL frames, he put together a 1.40 ERA earning a start in the Rising Stars Game where he pitched two hitless innings en route to the win. There was speculation that he could advance straight to the big leagues and a depleted staff in Seattle out of Spring Training, but he has landed on a more traditional path. The question Mariners fans will be asking is, "How long before we see Hultzen up here?"
Dylan Bundy, Delmarva Shorebirds
Taken by Baltimore with the No. 4 overall pick out of Owasso (Okla.) High School, Dylan Bundy was not merely a consensus All-American, he was named Player of the Year by all three of Baseball America, Gatorade and USA Today. His older brother, Bobby Bundy is also in the Orioles organization, but the pair will not be sharing a roster just yet, as the elder (1/13/90) Bundy is at Double-A Bowie, while 19-year-old Dylan will get his pro career underway with the Class A Delmarva Shorebirds.
Likely the top right-hander in the South Atlantic League entering the season, Bundy already boasts a four-pitch mix. If he approaches his high school dominance -- he fanned 322 over 151 innings in his junior and senior seasons -- he will pose a challenge to the O's, who will be glad to see the development but will want to let the teenager build endurance and arm strength as he progresses in full-season ball.
Anthony Rendon, Potomac Nationals
Selected No. 6 overall by Washington out of Rice University, Anthony Rendon was the first infielder taken in 2011. Considered a solid four-tool player -- speed being the one that's not quite great -- the biggest question marks to date have involved his health. A warm-weather start with Potomac of the Class A Advanced Carolina League should give the 21-year-old a comfort zone as he settles in to full-season pro ball.
Rendon will be joined in Potomac by third-round pick (No. 96 overall) Matt Purke, a southpaw considered to be one of the most complete pitchers in the Draft class, best described as a finesse lefty mixing four pitches with plus arm strength and power.
Taylor Jungmann, Brevard County Manatees
Jed Bradley, Brevard County Manatees
The Brewers will send a pair of first-rounders to the Brevard County Manatees of the Class A Advanced Florida State League. Jungmann was selected out of Texas with the 12th overall pick and Bradley out of Georgia Tech with the 15th. The pair didn't overwhelem during Spring Training so were sent to Minor League camp to build up some innings. At 6-foot-6 and 220 pounds, Jungmann is a big right-hander with three plus pitches with stuff he can maintain deep into every start. Bradley notched a win in six AFL outings but only worked 8 1/3 innings. The 6-foot-4, 225-pounder profiles as a workhorse who can throw a lot of innings and get to the big leagues fairly quickly.
Matt Barnes, Greenville Drive
Henry Owens, Greenville Drive
Another L/R pitching combo, selected a bit farther apart, appears headed for a single destination. The Boston Red Sox will send both right-hander Matt Barnes, selected 19th overall out of UConn, and left-hander Henry Owens, selected in Compensation Round A with the 36th overall pick, to the Greenville Drive in the Class A South Atlantic League. Big East Pitcher of the Year in 2011, Barnes looks and acts like a frontline starter. The 6-foot-6, Owens can start to add a changeup to the four-pitch mix that was sufficient to let him master high school opponents in Southern California.
Mikie Mahtook, Charlotte Stone Crabs
Selected by Tampa Bay with the 31st overall pick, outfielder Mikie Mahtook was a 2011 first-team All-American at LSU who posted a .344 lifetime batting average there. He also ranks No. 2 in the school's storied history in triples with 12 and No. 5 in stolen bases with 60. After a couple months vacation, he carried that sort of performance over to the AFL, batting .338 (23-for-68) in 18 games, alternating between left and right field. The Rays have assigned the 22-year-old with the speedy bat to the Charlotte Stone Crabs in the Class A Advanced Florida State League.
Joining Mahtook in Charlotte will be Grayson Garvin, a 6-foot-6 left-hander out of Vanderbilt taken with the 59th overall pick in Compensation Round A.
Michael Kelly, Fort Wayne Tin Caps
One top pitching prospect named Kelly apparently wasn't enough for San Diego, which selected right-hander Michael Kelly out of West Boca Raton (Fla.) Community High School with the 48th overall pick in Comp Round A. While fellow-Floridian Casey Kelly will be just a notch away from the big leagues with Triple-A Tucson, 19-year-old Michael will get his pro career underway with the Fort Wayne Tin Caps in the Class A Midwest League.

Research suggests water wars brewing in Southeast
Water scarcity in the western United States has long been an issue of concern. Now, researchers studying freshwater sustainability in the U.S. have found the Southeast, with the exception of Florida, does not have enough water capacity to meet its future needs either.
"For more than a century, the Southwest has been the focus of long-running legal disputes over water resources, but the Southeast is now becoming a more contentious region for water use," said Dr. Will Graf, a geographer in the University of South Carolina's College of Arts and Sciences.
Graf said 25 years ago, journalist Marc Reisner wrote, "Cadillac Desert: The American West and Its Disappearing Water," which predicted that water resources would be unable to support the growing demand of cities, agriculture and industry in the Southwest. A paper co-authored by Graf featured in this month's journal, "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences" supports most of Reisner's conclusions, using data and methods unavailable to Reisner in 1986.
Although the paper focuses on freshwater sustainability in the Southwest, Graf and co-authors Dr. Tushar Sinha, an engineer at North Carolina State University, and Dr. John Kominoski, an ecologist at the University of Georgia, said the findings have important implications for the Southeast as well.
"It turns out that the Southeast has a relatively small margin of water surplus for the future," said Graf, USC's Educational Foundation endowed professor and a leading authority on science and policy for public land and water.
Graf said the water resource picture in the Southeast is becoming similar to the Southwest, where water disputes have long been a prominent part of policy and resource management. In South Carolina, the Water Withdrawal and Permitting Act, which became law this year, and the agreement between North Carolina and South Carolina on managing their common rivers, such as the Catawba-Wateree system, demonstrate that water resources are gaining increased attention.

Trail Blazers will no longer be playing at the Rose Garden
Trail Blazers President and CEO Chris McGowan made it official today: The Rose Garden will now be known as the Moda Center.
"The Rose Garden put us on the map, the Moda Center is going to take us into the future," a beaming McGowan said.
While the name Moda Health may sound new to many Oregonians, the parent company behind the updated RG nomenclature has deep local roots. ODS Health was renamed Moda Health in May 2013.
The Rose Garden/Moda Center has been the home of the Trail Blazers since 1995. The Blazers worked with Premier Partnerships to broker the sponsorship deal with Moda.

I'm surprised Comicvine hasn't put up anything about the news that the next Batman movie may not come out till 2019 now as WB wants to get a Superman trilogy done first but as I read about this I also wondered if the next Batman film (which is being called a reboot but I hope does not mean an origin story) should bring Dick Grayson back to the silver screen.
I get why Nolan didn't use him or any other Robin in his trilogy. It was too dark and Nolan went for too much of a "Batman in the real-world" to also include a 10 year old kicking the crap of adults and superpowered opponents. He was correct in that call given the nature of his trilogy.
But if WB/DC can finally achieve the correct balance of real-world feel with comic book staples (as I think Marvel has done up to this point) with Man of Steel and continue that into its future products than I think this opens the ability to bring Dick Grayson into the next Batman film franchise.
However, I think three big things would need to happen to ensure the character is done correctly. One, don't show the death of his family or make their death a part of the next film. Just like the next film should not include Batman's origins or the start of his career (particularly if Justice League comes out first as the Batman movie proceeding it should simply continue the established movie timeline rather than be a prequel) we also don't need to see Dick's origins outside of a few comments or a quick flashback. He should already be in the manor, already know Bruce's identity, and already be helping him by running the computers in the Batcave to relay information and analysis.Two, he should not be Robin in the next film but he should be receiving training from Bruce. This would highlight a key point about Bruce and Dick's relationship that is continuously mentioned in the comics but not in other media forms.....Bruce didn't want Dick to become a crime-fighter when he took him in. He trained him in order to give him an outlet for his anger and pain rather than dwell on it as Bruce did. The film should emphasize this by also making a point that Dick is Bruce's apprentice/protege at Wayne Enterprises. He's at meetings, he's putting together documents, he's gaining a skill to become his own person rather than Bruce's sidekick or replacement as Batman. That leads me into point 3; Dick should be about no younger than 17 and no older than 20 in the first film. Though that's re-treading on what some complained about when Chris O'Donnell was cast as Dick, even with more comic book staples thrown into a new Batman film I still think Nolan had a point about not using a kid to be Batman's sidekick. Having him a little older would highlight the fact he's been with Bruce and Alfred for at least a few years (either immediately at the start of Bruce's career or even just before his official debut as Batman) and is at a stage of his life where the film could have some nice tension between Bruce and Dick about Bruce's idea for his future in business and going his own way and Dick's inclination to aid Bruce in his war on crime, foreshadowing his later roles in follow-on films.
With these three points in place it wouldn't be till at least the second Batman film that Dick would actually become Robin. Which leads me into a second question and my last thought. Should a new Robin follow the traditional design of the comics, not the bare legs and pixie boots I'm talking the bright red, yellow, and green with a cape and domino mask? In my opinion I would say no, the costume should be changed a bit more than just covering more of the body. It should echo Dick's background and style of fighting even more than the comics did. To that effect it could be a good idea to lose the cape and give the new film Robin a look more in-line with his Nightwing look but in the traditional red, yellow, and green color scheme (and obviously symbol) of Robin. This would highlight that at his core Dick is an acrobat and thus would not want the cape to interfere with his movements, which is why he never worn one as Nightwing. As this new version would make him older than the comics at the start of his career, it would make sense his Robin appearance would be more a reflection of himself than a copy of Bruce's Batsuit. My second recommendation would be the new look include a full cowl, similar to the Red Robin look, but that may be stretching it a bit too much from the source material.
On a side note: If the new Batman films were successful enough to progress Dick into Nightwing (maybe with his own film) and bring in Tim Drake as the new Robin I do think Tim's suit should include a cape because he's far more like Bruce in habit and style than Dick is.
But what do you all think? Should the next Batman film include Dick Grayson? Would it be better to introduce him in a second or third film (in which case I would not make him Robin in the same film he's introduced in order to emphasis his training period)?

I for see this connector broken after like one bump.
Attachment 613577
I'm looking forward to Sinjimoru creating a lightning plug for their dock!!! Simple, sleek and AWESOME! Had two for my ip4S'
Amazon link: http://amzn.com/B004VXT3I2
Where's the AUX input? Isn't that the purpose of having a dock?
And seriously who would buy the wooden one? Seems like anyone can make one if their good with wood.
Stupid dock, horrible design and just fugly. Why would anyone buy this?!?
A $3 dock from China will be a million times better.
Surely what is really needed is a dock converter so we can continue using our current equipment
I really don't understand why they changed ports like this. Of everything I read thus far, there doesn't appear to be any actual benefit to it. There is no real speed increase (other than what you'd get from improved hardware [cpu, etc] anyways), and it's still subject to USB speed limitations, which my 4S can hit the upper end of when transferring files easily), then the only real difference is that the connector is narrower and perhaps a tad thinner, which probably why docks for it are slow coming out, as making thin narrow male connector that wont snap off during normal use is not an easy task.
I really think Apple made a poor choice. If they wanted to, say, make the phone USB 3.0 or ThunderBolt compatible for faster transfer speeds when syncing directly, then it's the computer-end of the cable that would need to be changed, not the device-end. I honestly see no logical sense in the 30-pin end being changed, aside from the obvious attempt to get people to re-buy all sorts of accessories. Adapters will help for somethings, but not for everything. For docks that have the bowl-shaped cradle with the connector sort of recessed, any adapter will cause an iPhone 5 to sit above the bowl, for example.

Demi Lovato reveals a secret sister
Listen to Demi Lovato on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - In what sounds like a plotline on a soap opera, Demi Lovato recently learned she has a new older sibling she never knew existed.
The "X Factor" mentor spilled the beans during a radio interview, on Monday, saying she learned about her half-sister just last year.
"I just got to know I have an older sister I have never known in my whole life," Lovato said on the radio show. "She's in her thirties. She's my half sister but I talked to her for the very first time in my life around when I turned 20."
The singer celebrated her 20thbirthday on August 20.
"I asked her, 'Why haven't you ever contacted me?'" Lovato recounted. "She just said, 'Well, because I never wanted you to think I wanted anything from you. So I've just kind of been waiting to see if you wanted a relationship.' I thought that was so incredible. So I actually have three sisters!"
Lovato didn't name the sibling, but she joins the family which includes Demi's older sister, Dallas Lovato, 25, and her 11-year-old half-sister, Madison De La Garza, who starred on "Desperate Housewives."

Acute myeloid leukemia
Primary tabs
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is cancer that starts inside bone marrow. This is the soft tissue in the center of bones that helps form all blood cells. The cancer grows from cells that would normally turn into white blood cells.
Acute means the disease develops quickly and usually has an aggressive course.
Alternative Names
Acute myelogenous leukemia; AML; Acute granulocytic leukemia; Acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL); Leukemia - acute myeloid (AML); Leukemia - acute granulocytic; Leukemia - nonlymphocytic (ANLL)
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most common types of leukemia among adults. This type of cancer is rare under age 40.
AML is more common in men than women.
Persons with this type of cancer have an abundance of abnormal immature cells inside their bone marrow. The cells grow very quickly, and replace healthy blood cells. The bone marrow, which helps the body fight infections and makes other blood components, eventually stops working correctly. Persons with AML are more likely to have infections and have an increased risk of bleeding as the numbers of healthy blood cells decrease.
Most of the time, a doctor cannot tell you what caused AML. However, the following things can lead to some types of leukemia, including AML:
- Blood disorders, including polycythemia vera, thrombocythemia, and myelodysplasia
- Certain chemicals (for example, benzene)
- Certain chemotherapy drugs, including etoposide and drugs known as alkylating agents
- Exposure to certain chemicals and harmful substances
- Radiation
- Weakened immune system due to an organ transplant
Problems with your genes may also play a role in the development of AML.
Symptoms of AML may include any of the following:
- Bleeding from the nose
- Bleeding gums
- Bruising
- Bone pain or tenderness
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Heavy menstrual periods
- Pallor
- Shortness of breath (gets worse with exercise)
- Skin rash or lesion
- Swollen gums (rare)
- Weight loss
Exams and Tests
The doctor will perform a physical exam. There may be signs of a swollen spleen, liver, or lymph nodes.
A complete blood count (CBC) may show anemia and a low number of platelets. A white blood cell count (WBC) can be high, low, or normal.
Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy will show if there are any leukemia cells.
If your doctor learns you do have this type of leukemia, further tests will be done to determine the specific type of AML. Subtypes are based on specific genetic changes or mutations and how the leukemia cells appear under the microscope.
Treatment involves using medicines (chemotherapy) to kill the cancer cells. Most types of AML are treated the same way in the beginning, with more than one chemotherapy drug.
Chemotherapy kills normal cells, too. This may cause side effects such as:
- Increased risk of bleeding
- Increased risk of infection (your doctor may want to keep you away from other people to prevent infection)
- Weight loss (you will need to eat extra calories)
- Mouth sores
Other supportive treatments for AML may include:
- Antibiotics to treat infection
- Red blood cell transfusions to fight anemia
- Transfusions of platelets to control bleeding
A bone marrow (stem cell) transplant will likely be done after your first or second round of chemotherapy. This decision is determined by several factors, including:
- Your age and overall health
- How high your white blood cell count was
- Certain genetic changes in the leukemia cells
- The availability of donors
Support Groups
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a cancer support group. Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
Outlook (Prognosis)
When a bone marrow biopsy shows no evidence of AML, you are said to be in remission. Complete remission occurs in most patients. How well you do depends on your overall health and the genetic subtype of the AML cells.
Remission is not the same as a cure. More therapy is usually needed, either in the form of more chemotherapy or a bone marrow transplant.
With treatment, younger patients with AML tend to do better than those who develop the disease at an older age. The 5-year survival rate is much lower in older adults than younger persons. Experts say this is partly due to the fact that younger people are better able to tolerate strong chemotherapy medicines. Also, leukemia in older people tends to be more resistant to current treatments.
If the cancer does not come back (relapse) within 5 years of the diagnosis, you are likely cured.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if you develop symptoms of AML.
Call your health care provider if you have AML and have a fever that will not go away or other signs of infection.
If you work around radiation or chemicals linked to leukemia, you should always wear protective gear.

I have the feeling, though, that the idea will be based on the book ... but the story and script will go in an other direction. Afterall, it wil be a Jim Carrey comedy that must have and beginning and end in one hour and a half. I just hope the Wallace-fans won't freak out about that.

I am stopping development on this add-on since network-manager is included in XBMCbuntu and it conflicts with wicd.
I have now created a release thread for the new nm frondend and will stop posting here
I have upgraded to Eden.
The install function have been removed.
You need to remove network manager and install wicd curses otherwise it does not work.
Quote:sudo apt-get purge network-manager network-manager-gnome
sudo apt-get install wicd-curses
Here is the last Dharma version
If you want to test you need to be able to post a debug log in case you get some errors. Another add-on that helps with that is available in the offficial repository.
The add-on is of course used on your own risk.
In the current version there is not a full properties/configure dialog. A network is set to auto connect when added, while the complete solution is pending I have added a temporarily "remove auto button". The reason is that even a failed connection attempt will set that connection to auto creating issues if that is the strongest connection.
