Northwestern Oklahoma State University hopes to turn Percefull Fieldhouse into a wall of white on Thursday, Jan. 13, when the Rangers play host to St. Gregory's University for a Sooner Athletic Conference doubleheader.
As part of the school's "White Out" festivities, all Ranger fans are encouraged to wear white clothing, paint their faces and bring signs to the game, and Northwestern will help in that cause by giving the first 700 fans free white Ranger Nation t-shirts. Tip off for the Lady Rangers' game is 6 p.m. with the men following about 8 p.m.
"This annual event is a fun way to get Ranger fans excited about the basketball season, and this year helps to kick off the spring semester," said Steve Valencia, associate vice president for university relations. "Our fans have proven over the past few years that they can make a big difference by showing up and getting loud at our games. We have big wins in Percefull to prove that and want to add more on Jan. 13."
In addition to the t-shirt giveaway, Northwestern students who register by halftime of the women's game will be eligible to participate in various contests for prizes.
"It can be a great environment for the Rangers if everyone comes dressed in white and ready to support our teams," Valencia said.
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

It has been ages since I last had a blog post. I know. I'm a slacker. Shall I give you an update on where I am in life?
First, all of my awesome weight loss efforts from waaaaaay back were in vain. Laziness got the better of me and I gained it all back. (Insert sad face). Don't fret, though, I am NOT giving up! Second, My financial situation has improved. Not drastically improved, but improved. I have less debt and am making a conscious effort to rid myself of it. I still have a habit of overspending and am working to reign that monster in.
Now, here is what is on my mind at this particular moment. For the last week, I have adopted vegan-eating. As of 12:00 this morning I made it through an entire week of eating like a vegan. I am pretty proud of myself, because I thought I wouldn't be able to do it. I love meat, and eggs, and butter, and cheese. Oh goodness do I ever love cheese. Despite my love of animal food-products, I persevered and made it through a full week without them, and I did it rather easily. Don't get me wrong. This is NOT an easy lifestyle choice. I find that I have to be very intentional with my eating (as in make a plan…ahead of time). I have to buy food and prepare it, and then I have to eat it before it goes bad. This is not convenient. But, right now, it is worth it.
So many of my friends and family have asked me why I am doing this and I haven't been able to articulate to them The real "Why". So here is my attempt to convey "The Why" to you.
First of all, I believe in GOD. I am a Christian. For those of you…most of you…really confused as to why I am starting with this, bear with me. I believe that GOD designed our bodies to function a certain way and to be healthy. I also believe that all types of food options were created for us to use to keep ourselves nourished and healthy. Including plants and animals. I was given the gift of life and a healthy body from the beginning of my existence. I have not taken good care of that gift. Right now I am not healthy. I am overweight. The very unhealthy type of overweight. My cholesterol is too high. I have started to see signs that my blood pressure could become a problem if I don't make some changes. These issues have been brought on by my lifestyle decisions and are not the way my body was intended to be.
Over the
31 29.2 years of my life I have abused my body by overindulging in food and drinks and not exercising enough. This past year I have found myself dreading going to sporting events, concerts, and riding on planes (these are things I LOVE). I have passed up free tickets to games because I know that I will be uncomfortable in the seat and will make the people next to me uncomfortable. I have never felt like this before and it scares me. I feel it is time to make a change. So why Veganism and not some other way? I do believe that animals were meant to provide food and can be part of a healthy life. However, animal food products are the primary source of my overindulgence (that and sugar). I am eliminating them until I can be healthy and learn to use them appropriately in my diet.
I am following Dr. Joel Fuhrman's Eat To Live principles and am primarily eating vegetables, fruits, and beans/legumes. This is a very different approach to health for me. In the past I have focused on "diets" that make me lose weight very quickly. That has not been the case this week, and I have been tempted to be discouraged. I have to keep reminding myself that it isn't just about the number on the scale (although that is important), but about improving my overall health. This isn't about how much I will weigh a month from now. It is about how much I will weigh a year from now, and that is a difficult concept for me to wrap my mind around.
So, friends and family, there is your why. Hopefully I explained it in a way that you can understand. I really believe that this new lifestyle change is a good one and I also know that I am going to be tempted to stray. Encouragement from you all will be so helpful to me. Also, exercise and gym date requests are appreciated. Friend Jenny, I'm talking to you!
Listening: "Hit 'Em Up Style" by Carolina Chocolate Drops.
Eating: Oatmeal with berries and walnuts for breakfast. Salad and beans planned for lunch.
Drinking: just finished my morning coffee and am sipping water.
Wearing: black pants, pink top, black shoes.
Feeling: a little sore, but ready for my workout tonight.
Weather: rainy and 72 degrees.
Wanting: to be able to fall asleep easily tonight. The past 2 nights have been dreadful.
Needing: to clean my closet. It is a complete disaster.
Thinking: about my parents. I just love them.
Enjoying: my accomplishment. It is a small first step, but everything starts with a first step, right?

Police said Friday they don't believe there is a link between the assault on an openly gay Salt Lake City man and an attack on another gay man in the same downtown area.
Salt Lake police Detective Cary Wichmann said detectives continue to actively investigate both incidents and are currently treating the attacks as aggravated assaults, but not hate crimes.
Dane Hall, 20, said he was brutally assaulted by four men as he was leaving Club Sound's gay-themed night late Aug. 26. He said he was walking home from the club at 200 South and 600 West when someone shouted a gay slur in his direction.
Moments later he was punched in the back of the head and knocked to the ground. As the assault continued, Hall said, one of his assailants placed his right cheek on the curb and stomped on the side of his head. Hall's jaw was fractured in three places. A chip from his jawbone jammed into his brain. His cheekbone was shattered and he lost six teeth.
In another assault, a man said a group of men broke into his apartment above Cup of Joe, 33 W. 200 South, and beat up the resident's boyfriend.
Wichmann said based on the initial reports filed in both cases, police "have no indication at this point at all that they're linked."
"There's a lot of activity down there," Wichmann added. "There's been speculations on all sorts of different things. As far as those cases go, they're being investigated, but they're not being investigated as linked in any way."
Wichmann said if detectives determine either of the cases was, in fact, a hate crime, it would be treated as such.

Multi-Partner, Multi-layered Strategy Encompasses On-Air, Online, Mobile, In-Store, Print, Outdoor Promotions and Viral Outreach In Traditional and Non-Traditional Media To Capitalize On Multi-Faceted Themes of THE STARTER WIFE
NEW YORK, NY - May 8, 2007 - Setting the gold standard for the marketing of a television event, USA Network has mounted a massive far-reaching campaign to launch the premiere of THE STARTER WIFE, a six-hour television event starring Debra Messing, based on the New York Times bestseller of the same name. The unprecedented multi-layered 360� branding campaign leverages the novel�s themes and capitalizes on pop culture trends through traditional and non-traditional media tactics. THE STARTER WIFE premieres Thursday, May 31 through June 28 at 9:00PM/8PM Central.
�The theme of re-invention applies to all audiences, not just divorced women. Anyone at any age entering a new stage of life will be inspired by the challenges and the humor in THE STARTER WIFE,� said Chris McCumber, senior vice president of marketing and brand strategy at USA. �The theme of �starting over� is universally relevant as evidenced by the breadth of this expansive campaign.�
Outreach includes partnerships with top brands including POND�S, the exclusive presenting sponsor for THE STARTER WIFE, as well as promotional partnerships with Too Faced Cosmetics, Essie, Dress For Success, iVillage, Simon & Schuster and W Hotels.
The marketing campaign, which began its roll out in January and began accelerating with an extensive viral outreach on May 1, will run through the four-week airing of THE STARTER WIFE:
- A massive tune-in blitz includes national and local television ads; print presence in leading entertainment, fashion, lifestyle and trade publications; national and local newspaper; radio across ten markets; and an out-of home blitz in New York and LA. The last includes commuter rail cards, subway two-sheets, bus tails and bug kings, metro backlits, phone kiosks and oversized wild postings in New York. Outreach in Los Angeles will include high impact billboards and bulletins plus wild posters. Ads will also be featured at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Orlando.
- Alternative advertising includes grocery store backlits, aerial banners over beaches and parks in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
- Digital advertising will include video pre-roll, rich media units, sponsorships and take-overs across entertainment sites, portals, celebrity/fashion/gossip sites and women�s community/dating sites
USA Network is mounting an extensive program to generate hipster buzz on a local level for THE STARTER WIFE. This will be done via the following:

As an overlay in Los Angeles and New York, a group of five ambassadors dressed in the same attire will ride on pink Buddy Scooters throughout heavily trafficked areas with vanity license plates reading �Wife Goes On.�
- Trendsetter Screenings: The screenings will take place at over 300 homes throughout the month of May. Each host will get a �Starter Wife� themed kit, which includes a 30- minute premiere sneak peek, nail kits, martini glasses, napkins and a recipe/discussion guide. Each host will be responsible for inviting �insiders� to attend, participate in a Starter Wife discussion and receive THE STARTER WIFE merchandise. The host with the best party will win a pink Buddy Scooter.
- Hamptons Luxury Liner: USA Network is the first entertainment company to fully wrap a Hampton Luxury Liner. The wrapped luxury motorcoach will travel to and from New York City, to the Hamptons, Long Island from 5/1-5/31, with a special 30-minute sneak peek and branded emery board giveaway promotion during Memorial Day Weekend.

This micro site also includes weekly personality profilers/quizzes and weekly polls themed to each episode.
- Starting Over Stories: USA has created a vibrant community of real women with real life starting over stories. The topics range from real life �Starter Wife� confessions to weight loss, overcoming illness to family transitions.

Online Viral Efforts
- �Word of mouth� marketing will be launched by searching, monitoring and maintaining an open dialogue with hundreds of targeted message boards, blogs, chat rooms and websites including dating, beauty, television, fashion and celebrity/pop culture sites.
- Unique �community based� marketing campaigns will be implemented by partnering with 150+ sites delivering viral video, banners, press releases and first look information, including video, women�s interest, gay/lesbian and music sites.
� As a �Starter Wife� Insider, SMS Weekly Messages offers users exclusive information about the show, with hip tips, exclusive character insights, plus a WAP site will offer mobisodes, photo galleries, games, exclusive sneak peeks and preview clips and downloads.
- Hollywood Premiere
USA will host a star-studded premiere of THE STARTER WIFE in Hollywood on Tuesday, May 22 at the Pacific Design Center. Debra Messing, Joe Mantegna, Judy Davis, Anika Noni Rose and other actors including director Jon Avnet and author Gigi Levangie Grazer will attend the screening and after-party
- W Hotel �Girls Night Out� Events
USA and W Hotel will host a cocktail party in their Los Angeles (May 17) and New York (May 24) lounges. Guests will view clips of the show, enjoy Essie manicures, POND�S/Too Faced makeup applications, plus enjoy specially created cocktails (including �Meet Me in Malibu� mojitos) and gift bags with host products.
THE STARTER WIFE is a sexy, savvy and wickedly funny tour de force about life after divorce and one woman's (Messing) quest to redefine herself after years of marriage to a Hollywood studio head. After being blacklisted from premieres to pilates, Molly Kagan searches to rediscover life after divorce. A brief respite in Malibu and some oh-so-Hollywood friends prove to be the perfect cocktail for her transformation from "Starter Wife" to her new life.
THE STARTER WIFE is executive produced by Grazer and penned by the writing team of Sara Parriott & Josann McGibbon ("Runaway Bride"), who also serve as executive producers along with Stephanie Davis ("The Caveman's Valentine") and Howard Klein ("The Office," "Carnivale") from 3 Arts Entertainment. THE STARTER WIFE is produced by Hay Pop Pty Limited in association with McGibbon/Parriott Productions and 3 Arts Entertainment, for NBC Universal Television Studio. THE STARTER WIFE is directed by, as well as executive produced, by Jon Avnet (�Risky Business,� �Fried Green Tomatoes�).

From BioenergyWiki
Bioenergy > United States > US states > Hawaii
Information about biofuels and bioenergy in the state of Hawaii in the United States.
- 11-14 December 2010, Honolulu: Pacific Rim Summit on Industrial Biotechnology and Bioenergy. (Themes: algae, bio-based products, bioenergy, biotechnology, second-generation biofuels)
- Hawaiian Electric seeks suppliers of biodiesel for Campbell Industrial Park Generating Station, 1 February 2011 press release by the Hawaiian Electric Company: "Hawaiian Electric Company today issued a call for a supply of three to seven million gallons of biodiesel per year for the 110-megawatt Campbell Estate Industrial Park Generating Station."
- "The request for proposals (RFP) states Hawaiian Electric's preference for locally produced biodiesel. In addition, Hawaiian Electric places a qualitative value on biodiesel made in the United States from domestic feedstocks."
- "The CIP generating station currently uses biodiesel from Renewable Energy Group (REG), an Iowa-based supplier providing biodiesel from yellow grease or waste animal fat."
- "All biofuel provided to any Hawaiian Electric Company must conform to environmental guidelines for the sustainable use of biofuels developed by Hawaiian Electric Company in partnership with the Natural Resources Defense Council."
- "In addition, the Hawaii Biofuels Foundation is currently developing guidelines for sustainable production of local biofuels in partnership with the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels."[1]
- Hawaii crops, algae may get funded for military biofuel, 3 April 2010 by William Cole for the Honolulu Advertiser: "The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Navy are hoping to jumpstart the growth of crops and algae in Hawai'i that can be used for military fuel as part of an aggressive drive by the Pentagon to reduce its dependence on foreign oil and increase renewable energy sources."
- "By 2016, the Navy wants to deploy a "Great Green Fleet" that will be powered entirely by alternative fuels, said Navy Secretary Ray Mabus during the signing of the Navy and Department of Agriculture agreement on Jan. 21."
- "'Through alternative energy use, improved technological efficiencies and biofuel development,' Mabus said, 'we are going to improve the range and endurance of our ships and our aircraft, reduce their reliance on a vulnerable supply chain, and create a resistance to the external shocks that come from overreliance on a fragile global oil infrastructure.'"[2]
- Biofuel crops pose invasive pest risk, 22 April 2009 by ENN/Public Library of Science: Researchers concluded "that biofuel crops proposed for use in the Hawaiian Islands are two to four times more likely to establish wild populations or be invasive in Hawaii and in other tropical areas when compared to a random sample of other introduced plants."
- "The researchers used a weed risk assessment that examines a plant's biology, geographic origin, pest status elsewhere, and published information on its behavior in Hawaii to identify plants with a high risk of becoming invasive pests in Hawaii or other Pacific islands."
- "'By identifying the species with the highest risk, and pushing for planting guidelines and precautionary measures prior to widespread planting, we hope to spare the Hawaiian Islands and similar tropical ecosystems from future economic and environmental costs of the worst invaders while encouraging and promoting the use of lower risk alternative crops,' said Christopher Buddenhagen, co-author of "Assessing Biofuel Crop Invasiveness: A Case Study."[3]
- The article noted that "Despite reservations about their adverse environmental impacts, no attempt has been made to quantify actual, relative or potential invasiveness of terrestrial biofuel crops at an appropriate regional or international scale, and their planting continues to be largely unregulated."[4]
- Shell joins venture to produce biodiesel from algae from the Financial Times, 12 December 2007. Shell and HP Biopetroleum, a Hawaii-based algal biofuels company, collaborate to grow marine algae for conversion into biodiesel.

The base of flavor of your ecigs
So we know that e-cigs don't have actual tobacco or the other harmful ingredients, such as tar and carcinogens. When you switch to this type of cigs, it means that will always bring eliquid for your vaping eliquid. If you are not familiar with contained ingredients in eliquid, you then can read this article until the last word.
Are you familiar with propylene glycol? Many manufacturers use this as a base for the nicotine and flavors. Why isn't this ingredient harmful?
Not all people know why e-cigs are better than the traditional ones. For your additional information, PG is widely used as a food additive. It means that you can if it in many foods that we like to eat regularly.
This is why e-cig doesn't cause any harmful effects. However, either good or bad effect of the certain product can vary depending on its ingredients, right?

Welcome » IT Booklets » Retail Payment Systems » Retail Payment Systems Risk Management » Retail Payment Instrument Specific Risk Management Controls » Third-Party ACH Processing
While a financial institution's responsibilities do not change
with the use of a technology service provider for ACH processing,
its risk exposure may increase as a result of the servicer's direct
access to an ACH operator. A TSP may transmit ACH
transactions directly to an ACH operator using the ODFI routing
number. However, it is the ODFI that warrants the validity of
each entry transmitted by the service provider, including the basic
requirement that a receiver has authorized all entries. To
reduce risk to all parties, the financial institution should
establish controls over TSP operations, and the ODFI should
maintain control over its settlement accounts. See the IT Handbook Outsourcing
Technology Services Booklet.
Although the federal regulators do not enforce the NACHA rules,
a financial institution subject to them should have appropriate
risk-management and control processes to ensure compliance with
these rules. For example, NACHA requires TSPs performing ACH
processing functions on behalf of an ODFI or RDFI to conduct an
annual compliance audit covering the requirements of their
rules. The financial institution should review and assess all
audits of its service provider's internal controls. NACHA
rules also require the ODFI to have contractual agreements with
third-party senders specifying that the third-party sender is in
compliance with NACHA rules and applicable laws and
regulations. NACHA rules further require the ODFI to have an
agreement with a TSP that has direct access to an ACH
operator. NACHA specifies that the agreement sets out the
rights and responsibilities of all parties, including:
NACHA also requires participating financial institutions to
conduct annual audits of their ACH operations to assess compliance
with NACHA rules. These audits can provide examiners with
insights into the quality of ACH operations.
Risk Considerations for Business Banking EFT Payments
Financial institutions that offer corporate customers access to
Web-based business banking applications to facilitate the direct
origination of payments (e.g., ACH credits/debits, wire transfers,
etc.) create special risk considerations for the financial
institution and its corporate customers. These applications
offer corporate customers an efficient way to conduct treasury
management activities such as invoice payments and funds
transfers. However, these features also increase the velocity
in which errors and fraud can subject businesses or the bank to
loss and can be the target of malicious software designed to
circumvent online authentication methods to obtain credentials that
can be used to initiate fraudulent payments.
Ongoing education of corporate customers remains one of the best
ways financial institutions can mitigate the risks associated with
online business banking applications. This is especially the
case for some small businesses and community-based corporate
entities (e.g., churches, schools, etc.) where the awareness of
payments fraud techniques may be limited and the impact of a fraud
can be significant. In addition to providing a secure
environment for corporate payments (e.g., strong encryption,
transaction risk profiling, etc.), financial institutions can help
mitigate corporate payments risk by ensuring their corporate
customers understand the importance of good business practices such
as payment origination dual controls, daily account reconciliation,
and other measures to protect the integrity of the corporate
customers computer systems (e.g., virus protection, operating
system upgrades, etc.).

Kyle Faunce knows a little bit about bouncing around so it isn't surprising to hear that the Mountain Pointe quarterback and his family stepped up to help out a teammate.
The junior quarterback has found a home at Mountain Pointe, but not before attending four other schools since the start of his freshman season.
When I talked to him before the start of the season, Faunce talked about how difficult it was to get adjusted each time he enrolled at a different school.
So when he noticed that Mountain Pointe's Izzy Marshall was going from house to house thanks to gracious teammates, Faunce and his family offered the team's star linebacker a more stable option.
"When I first got here, me and Izzy hit it off really well," Faunce told the Arizona Republic. "He kind of took me under his wing. I saw him hopping around from house to house. I said, 'Hey, can you tell me what's going on?' He was like, 'I just hop around from house to house, because I want to stay away from my family situation.' I said, 'You know my parents love you. You know we'll do anything for you. I treat you like one of my brothers.' He stayed the night one time, and he kept staying the night.
"My mom says now, 'When he's gone, it feels like somebody is missing.' "
Marshall's mobility stems from the fact that his grandmother's kidney problem that going in and out of the hospital for dialysis while his mother having issues with drugs.
The thing about Marshall is you'd never know his home life is in upheaval.
He has one of those smiles and personalities that shine through everything.
And anyone who has seen the Pride play knows it hasn't affected his play. Marshall is all over field defensively and when called upon - like in the Chandler Basha game when he had two rushing touchdowns - can produce offensively.
Marshall is the heart and soul of the Pride and he knows it. It is one of the reason's he has stayed focused despite the altered homelife.
He is putting his team's fortunes ahead of his misfortunes.

if you want a (recovery)cwm tar theres one in the root thread
you can run a bootloader with a different recovery. thats why its labled it doesnt have the stock recovery. or it may be labeled that because it needs to be flashed in CWM
---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------
try to flash this in CWM after booting to recovery with the debrickSD to do this you can boot with the sd and download itor, transfer via mtp
Tried this and had to restore 4.3 loader.
Here is the problem
The phone is now fully back to 4.3 which the OTA upgraded it to.
The phone works 100% when booted from Debrickjb external sd card all functions work on the phone from the phones OS not the SD Card.
The problem is I am unable to boot the phone without the SD Card. The power button does nothing. When i reinsert the debrickjb image SD Card after a minute or two I can power on and boot normally or into recovery.
I have tried the bootloaders mentioned but none work except the d2att_JB bootloader for 4.3.
I understand the efuse problem with trying to go back to 4.12 may be part of the problem but have wiped and reinstalled the 4.3 roms and have the phone working with the only problem it will not power up without the SD Card. Since it powers fine off the 2nd boot option I know its not the button itself and have tried to find a code or software solution for days now.
Any ideas out there?

I thinks it's the same basic issue. We need to adjust our product for the season.
Check out these links. Thy are product specific but information is included that I think would apply to all products.
My hair is nicer today. I did that aloe as I mentioned above. I also did a longer steam cap in the shower and then I used a lot more LI. I did not style at all and it has more wave than it did the past couple of days with stylers so I have no doubt it would be back to how I want it had I scrunched well and gelled. Maybe even better. So, a big thank you from me to the responders.
Myrna - hopefully you will get your adjustments figured out, too, so you can your crunch back.
remember, with all advice or suggestions for your hair,
My hair:
2b wavy, medium texture, low porosity, med-high density. Protein finicky.
My routine:
Cleansing: DCNP, every 4-5 days (occasionally use CJ cleansers).
RO: CJSC, occasionally use JCDC
LI: KCKT or CJSL
Gel: KCCC, CJCIAB for 2nd day hair (sometimes third)
Heat is my friend: warm water rinses, steam caps, and diffuse dry. I love CLU cloths and my Denman.

Pour Out Thy Wrath. . .
I was totally dismayed when I read on the first day of chol ha-mo'ed Pesach, an article entitled Offensive Liturgy in the Passover Seder: Take It Out, by Joshua Stanton.
In the article he described his personal seder and highlighted a passage in the Haggadah which he termed "offensive," and at which (he wrote) the Jewish guests winced. He made a point to say that the non-Jewish guests were not the ones who were offended, but that the Jewish participants cringed at reading those words. And then, he proposed removing this "offensive" passage from the Haggadah entirely.
What is this special paragraph, and why was it considered so offensive? This behooves a little historical background: the Haggadah* which has the order of the Seder* and is read on Seder night, was codified into booklet form around the thirteenth century. Before then, it had been appended to the Hebrew prayer book, the siddur. It itself dates back to the period of the Tannaim, who compiled the Mishna part of the Talmud, around 170 C.E. It is mentioned by Rabban Gamliel who was the head of the Sanhedrin* at the time. In the eighth to the tenth century, the Haggadah was formulated to a similar version to what it is today.
The Haggadah relates the story of the humble background of the Jewish people, their period of slavery in Egypt and how G-d through Moshe Rabeinu* slowly formed the Israelites into a nation, first through His miracles, signs and wonders which caused the Egyptians to finally release them, only to pursue them into the split waters of the Reed Sea (almost always mistranslated as "Red Sea") and come to their deaths as the waters returned, crashing down upon them and drowning them all except for their Pharoah, who was on the Egyptian side, watching (as opposed to modern Israeli officers, true leaders who lead their troops into battle, and whose famous motto was "aharai" – 'after me').
We are supposed to read and discuss the Haggadah with the mindset that this is our story, not just our ancestors' – we need to feel as if this is happening to us, today: that we ourselves were slaves and are now free men and women, and show gratitude to Hashem.
We even show, in the ritual of reading the ten plagues, a little sadness, by removing a drop of wine from our cup with our little finger, one drop for each plague read out loud in the liturgy. Wine symbolizes joy and happiness, and by removing ten drops, we remove some of our happiness, because even though the Egyptians were our enemies and slave-masters, they were G-d's creations too, and we regret that Ribono shel Olam* had to destroy them. What other people ever shows that kind of understanding and empathy for an enemy in their liturgy?
The controversial passage was added in the Middle Ages at a time of great persecution during the Crusades, and after centuries of other nations and later the world's "great" religions--the Greeks, Romans, Christians and later Muslims—forcing Jews to convert upon penalty of death, blaming Jews for economic ills, perpetrating blood libels accusing Jews of murdering Christian children in order to use their blood in baking matzah, and then going on pogroms murdering the Jews for this heinous lie.
The passage, "Shfoch Hamatcha," or "Pour out Your wrath" was a verbal response to these atrocities and heinous crimes. It can be translated thus:
Pour out Your wrath upon the nations that do not acknowledge You, and upon the kingdoms that do not call upon Your Name. For they have devoured Jacob and laid waste his habitation. Pour out Your indignation upon them, and let the wrath of Your anger overtake them. Pursue them with anger, and destroy them from beneath the heavens of the L-rd.Did the Jewish people retaliate? Could the Jewish people defend themselves? They had every right to, for at least 2,000 years of frequent brutal persecution. But they didn't. They didn't have a country. They didn't have an army. All they had was an unshaken faith in the G-d who "chose" them to be His people. And they turned to Him to protect them and avenge their persecution.
Why are we ashamed of this? We are ashamed because of a lingering "ghetto mentality." Because, in our touchy-feely-goody world of nicey-nicey where it is politically incorrect to tell the truth and call evil by its rightful name, this passage doesn't 'fit.' It is blunt. It is biting. It is angry.
And it is right.
We are not the ones who should be ashamed. Those other nations and religions, some of whom perpetrated these terrible crimes, and the others who stood by and looked the other way—they are the ones who should be ashamed.
Finally, for the first time in 2,000 years of exile, we have our country back--you know the one: the one promised to us in the Bible by G-d.
It is a Jewish country, and should remain so. We rule it. We have an incredible army, strong, yet ethical. On the eve of Holocaust remembrance day (should we forget that, too?), it is very appropriate to cite this passage in the Haggadah which we have just read so recently. To emphasize, "Never Again."
We, with G-d's help, will never allow the destruction of our people to happen again.
The passage should stay.
*Haggadah: comes from the Hebrew verb "le-haggid," to narrate.
*Seder: Hebrew word meaning "order".
*Sanhedrin: the Jewish legislative body in Jerusalem
*Moshe Rabeinu: Moses our Teacher
*Ribono shel Olam: Master of the Universe

2014/15 New year skiing in the Alps
A town of 2,500 permanent inhabitants, St. Anton offers the best expert skiing in the Arlberg region, and the most lively apres-ski scene. St. Anton lies on the Rosanna River, and is on the main east-west rail line between Austria and Switzerland. It is part of the Arlberg alliance of ski resorts—a region that includes more 82 cable cars and ski lifts, 260 km (160 miles) of groomed pistes and 184 km (114 miles) of deep-snow runs.
Ski Hire: Click here for the best rates in St Anton for Ski-Hire with SkiSet
Known as the birthplace of Alpine Skiing hich started here back in 1901, St Anton has remained at the cutting edge of ski development and as such is a mecca for advanced skiers, akin to Chamonix and Jackson Hole.
A pedestrian zone forms the center of the town. On the western edge of village is the "Galzigbahn" which has been replaced by a Funitel gondola. The new gondola also includes the first ever ferris wheel, which enables passengers to board the gondolas on ground level. The Funitel accesses the Galzig slopes and connects to Schindler and Valluga peaks. On the eastern edge of town, the Nassereinerbahn rises to the Nasserien area with links to Kapall peak. Kapall, Valluga, and Schindler peaks provide skiers with close to 1,500 vertical metres skiing. Slope-side apres-ski bars, such as Krazy Kanguruh and Mooserwirt, can be found on the Steissbachtal trail just above St. Anton. A more subdued apres-ski scene exists in the numerous pubs and cafes in town.
Expert terrain includes less frequently groomed ski routes such as Schindlerkar and Mattun, and the backside of Valluga (2,811 m) down to Zürs, which is for experts only if accompanied by a guide. There are also a large number of off-piste routes in the area that experts can explore with the help of a guide. Rendl, a separate area on the other side of town, is more suitable for intermediates. It also gets the late afternoon sun. Many people end the day at the Rendl Beach-a lively outside bar with a sun terrace and daily tea dances.
Other ski areas are Lech, Stuben and St. Christoph, a hamlet that became famous in the 14th century when the shepherd Heinrich Findelkind built a hospice as a shelter for traveler crossing the Arlberg pass to the Vorarlberg province. Alpe Rauz, near St. Christoph, has one of the finest cruising trails in the region, an 820 m vertical slope that takes one all the way from Ulmer Hutte to Stuben.

President Benigno S. Aquino III has tasked the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) to monitor the affected areas for further seismic activity following an earthquake that hit Tayasan town in Negros Oriental on Monday morning.
"The President has been informed and is being constantly updated of the situation," Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said in a statement issued in Malacanang on Monday.
"A Level 2 Tsunami alert has already been issued by PHIVOLCS requiring residents in affected areas to stay away from the shorelines and to be on alert for unusual waves," Lacierda said.
Transporation and Communictions Secretary Manuel Roxas II has instructed Rear Admiral Edmund Tan, Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) Commandant, to prevent fishermen from going out to sea for the duration of the alert.
Lacierda said the Philippine National Police Region VI and VII have already been instructed by PNP Chief Nicanor Bartolome to keep the population away from the shoreline, and to ensure the maintenance of peace and order, while the alert is ongoing.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) personnel are already on standby to lend support and relief to affected citizens.
"While there are no forced evacuations being ordered, we implore the people in affected areas to remain vigilant and take the necessary safety precautions. Let us cooperate with government agencies, allow them to do their work, and remain calm and watchful," Lacierda said.
A magnitude 6.9 earthquake was reported at 11:49 this morning Monday at Tayasan town in Negros Oriental.

CBS and CNET have asked a Californian federal court not to grant a ban on the distribution of file-sharing software through Download.com. They responded to a request for a preliminary injunction from a coalition of artists and billionaire Alki David who claim that CBS induces piracy. According to the media conglomerate this is not the case, and CBS argues that there are many non-infringing uses for BitTorrent.

The Sixth Sense, 1929
On the surface, Filmoteca Española's classification of Nemesio M. Sobrevila and Eusebio Fernández Ardavĺn's romantic comedy The Sixth Sense as an avant-garde film seems like a tenuous designation, loosely supported by an episode in which abstract forms and flicker images momentarily appear in the cueing of a film reel. But The Sixth Sense also functions as a metafilm, a self-contained reality conjured by Professor Kamus (Ricardo Baroja) who, as the film begins, has just discovered a "sixth sense" in the camera's all seeing eye that enables him to see the objective truth. This everyday truth is reflected in the affection displayed by the gregarious Carlos (Enrique Durán) and his chorus girl fiancée Carmen (Antonia Fernández) during a picnic in the country with his perennially morose friend Léon (Eusebio Fernández Ardavín), and Léon's demure girlfriend Luisa (Gertrudis Pajares). In an attempt to change his friend's sullen disposition, Carlos persuades Léon to pay a visit to Kamus whose film therapy sessions have successfully liberated patients from their own repressed states - an experimental treatment that has proven effective for Kamus's own fanciful young assistant (Felipe Pérez) against his domineering mother. However, when Léon catches a glimpse of Carmen in a seemingly compromising position during dance hall rehearsals, the footage only serves to sow further doubt in his mind on the possibility of finding peace of mind, and threatens to derail his friend's happiness as well. While the inclusion of abstract elements found in avant-garde films do reinforce Sobrevila and Ardavĺn's penchant for unconventional imagery, the underlying nature of their experimentation is perhaps more accurately exemplified by the film's prescient themes of surveillance and subjective reality that prefigure Harun Farocki's cinema - exploring the nature of the film image and the camera as apparatus for the human eye in its disjunction between cognition and recognition, reality and truth.

China Paper proposed investment still at MoU stage – Ramsammy
Minister of Agriculture Dr Leslie Ramsammy says that a proposed investment by China Paper has not moved beyond the Memorandum of Under-standing (MoU) stage as yet.
"I don't think that has gone beyond the MoU," the minister told Stabroek News yesterday when contacted on the activities the company has been undertaking. Government has been urged to come clean on secret MoUs signed with foreign companies.
Last year, Dr Rupert Roopnaraine of APNU said that the first knowledge of dealings with another investor, the D Y Patil Group and China Paper came to his attention through reporting in the Stabroek News. He said "with these MoUs we are of the firm belief that they need to be fully ventilated and brought to the National Assembly."
Prior to the reportage in the Stabroek News there had been no information from the government on the details of MoUs clinched with the two companies.
China Paper came to notice when it advertised in local newspapers for the services of a competent local firm to provide environmental and logistical services for its operations. According to the advertisement, the company is seeking to develop a project in the agriculture sector in Guyana. China Paper, which is state owned under the parent company China Chengtong is into asset management, integrated logistic service, capital goods trade as well as production, development and exploitation concerning forestry, pulp and paper.
According to the company, its "overseas layout" concentrates in South America, Southeast Asia, Russia and other countries and regions. It says that with the support from national policies and auxiliary capital, China Paper strives to own an annual papermaking capacity of over 5 million tons and an annual pulp-making capacity of over 5 million tons and control over 10 million "mu" (Chinese acre land measurements equivalent to 1/6 of an acre) of forest lands both at home and abroad at the end of the period of the 12th Five-Year Plan, with assets, income and profit all going to new levels.
Last June, a delegation from China Chengtong (CCT) Holdings Group Ltd, led by its Vice President Li Yousheng met President Donald Ramotar for talks on its interest in the establishment of an agri-forest project in Guyana, the Government Information Agency had reported.
"The project (proposed) is just the plantation for the trees and an integrated base for agriculture projects… that (will be) very good for the… local people here," Vice President Li had said in an invited comment to GINA. He gave the assurance that sustainable practices are at the heart of company's method of building the forestry industry.
There have been increasing concerns locally about large Chinese companies accessing the forestry sector not being forthcoming about their plans or the bases on which they are operating.

Mental health treatment sought for Franklin Regional stabbing suspect
The attorney for the teenager accused of randomly stabbing and slashing 20 classmates and a security guard in Franklin Regional High School says the boy's mental condition is deteriorating and he needs to be transferred to a treatment facility.
Alex Hribal, 16, is charged as an adult with attempted homicide. He has been held without bond in Westmoreland County's juvenile detention facility in Hempfield since the April 9 rampage.
Attorney Patrick Thomassey filed a petition on Friday asking Westmoreland County Judge Richard McCormick Jr. to hold a hearing on his request that Hribal receive in-patient mental health treatment in Adelphoi Village, a secure facility in Derry Township, at taxpayers expense.
"... Given his flat affect, his inability to relate, his impaired judgement, his episodic suicidal ideation, his sense of hopelessness and helplessness, he does not demonstrate the capacity to cooperate with his attorney," Thomassey wrote about Hribal, referring to a report from psychiatrist Christine Martone.
Thomassey could not be reached late Friday afternoon. A hearing has not been scheduled.
The petition said Dr. Martone examined Hribal on May 14 and diagnosed a depressive disorder, schizophrenia and an acne problem.
District Attorney John Peck said on Friday afternoon he not seen the request.
"I'll have to study the motion to see what his claims are and make a decision" on whether to oppose it, Peck said.
The requested hearing would be Hribal's first public appearance since his preliminary arraignment on the evening of April 9.
Police contend that Hribal slashed and stabbed his way down a school hallway with two kitchen knives before classes began, critically wounding four students. Police said Hribal refused to surrender the knives when Assistant Principal Sam King confronted and finally subdued him.
On June 2, Thomassey waived Hribal's right to a preliminary hearing and nine days later waived his scheduled July 23 formal arraignment, or a reading of the charges. Hribal has entered a not guilty plea on 21 counts of attempted homicide and aggravated assault and a single count of possession of a weapon on school property.
Martone said Hribal "demonstrated a factual as well as rational understanding of the charges against him."
Thomassey has said he plans to make a bid to have the case tried in juvenile court. Thomassey indicated in Friday's filing that Martone and Dr. Bruce Chambers of Cranberry would be willing to testify at the hearing to address Hribal's transfer.
Chambers was authorized on April 11 to visit Hribal for a psychological evaluation. Chambers agrees with Martone's assessment of the defendant, Thomassey said in the motion.
Police have not discussed a motive for the attacks. Thomassey has suggested Hribal was bullied.
Police found a handwritten note in Hribal's locker dated three days before the attack that expressed dissatisfaction with school and society and his plans to hurt his classmates, according to court papers. The note was titled "RAGNAROK," which is the name for a final battle preceding the end of the world in Norse mythology.

My plastic surgeron gave me Flonase (Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray) for swelling after my rhinoplasty. I was using it for a month and half and my nose seem to swell worst every week. So i decided to stop using it and my nose seem to not be as swollen. I am confused because i thought the Flonase (Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray) suppose to decrease swelling not actually cause it. I also notice even if i use a saline nasal spray my nose swell. Is this common/normal?
Can Flonase (Fluticasone Propionate Nasal Spray) Actually Cause More Swelling After Rhinoplasty?
Doctor Answers 4
Flonase and saline safe after rhinoplasty
Flonase is very safe after rhinoplasty, and is not expected to cause swelling. The active ingredient, fluticasone, is in truth supposed to reverse swelling. However in less than one percent of patients, the medication can cause irritation or swelling. That may be your situation, a reaction or intolerance to either the medication, the "vehicle" that helps deliver the drug, or preservatives. If you feel better off of it, logic should tell you not to use it or look for an alternative.
Saline is more safe, provided it's pH balanced and isotonic, meaning concentrated appropriately for our cellular interations. If you are responding to store purchased saline, check to see if it is listed as preservative free. If not, you might be reacting to topical preservatives. You might also consider making your own saline solution, or purchasing a Sinucleanse/neti pot at your local pharmacy (they include packs of preservative free saline for reconstitution). That would still provide the soothing, healing properties of saline without the preservative risk.
Flonase and Saline Causing Nasal Swelling after Rhinoplasty
Flonase and saline should not cause intra-nasal swelling after rhinoplasty surgery. Consult with your surgeon who can evaluate your nose and determine the cause of your nasal obstruction.
Flonase Should Not Cause Nasal Swelling After Rhinoplasty
Hi Brown,
Best to address your concerns to your rhinoplasty surgeon. Your surgeon can examine your nose with the knowledge of what has been done to it. It is not normal for the nose to swell after either Flonase or nasal saline spray. Empirically it seems that not using the sprays is doing better for you than using them. Good luck, be well, and hope that you love your new nose.

Nasal sprays can be irritating immediately post rhinoplasty
Flonase is a type of nasal steroid that is used to treat swelling inside the nose caused by rhinitis. One of the side effects, especially if used incorrectly, is to cause irritation inside the nose. I usually instruct my patients on how to spray it, in an outward manner towards the cheeks rather than in the mid line where it can irritate the septum of your nose. I like to have my patients wait at least 2 weeks before resuming their Flonase. I have not heard of using Flonase post operatively to reduce swelling if the person is not allergic. The fact that Saline irritated your nose tells me that it may still be raw from healing or raw from the Flonase. Apply Vaseline ointment to your nose 2 to 3 times a day and the irritation will settle down.
Good luck

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 11/5/2014 (1166 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Re: Trudeau stifles conscience (Editorial, May 9). In Pierre Elliott Trudeau, the Canada of that time first giddily, then begrudgingly, accepted the intelligence and charisma of a self-styled philosopher king.
Whatever arrogance his leadership may have displayed was balanced by an understanding that reasoned argument from competing perspectives was the bedrock of well-designed legislative policy.
Justin Trudeau shows little of his father's insight. Whether it's his shuttered nomination process, his enforced Senate membership declassification, or his unilateral closure on matters of individual conscience, what has emerged is a personal style more dictatorial than enlightened.
Sadly, even for those who are not Liberal supporters, Mr. Trudeau has begun to strike the party's once proud "Big Red Tent" -- under which diversity of opinion was openly encouraged -- in favour of the ringmaster's whip at an autocratic political sideshow.

Three years after the PBZ-treatments, the size of foliar-treated trees was not different in comparison to the control.
The effect of soil-treatment at 1 g/tree and especially at 2 g/tree was effective in reducing tree growth and total leaf area per tree.
The 2 g/tree soil treatment increased the thickness of the leaves.
In the spongy parenchyma the thickness was greater because of more cell layers, and the volume of its intercellular spaces was reduced.
The 1 g/tree soil treatment and foliar applications did not significantly influence leaf development.
PBZ application, and above all the soil treatment of 2 g/tree, greatly decreased primary xylem development, the thickness of the annual rings of the stem and the number and diameter of the vessels.
PBZ also reduced secondary phloem development.
The PBZ applications greatly inhibited root development, especially when the 2 g/tree soil-treatment was used.
Also in the roots, PBZ treatment reduced the number and diameter of the vessels.
In treated chestnuts, total nitrogen and carbohydrate contents, leaf photosynthetic rate, dark respiration and transpiration rate were similar to those of the untreated trees.
In the 2 g/tree soil-treatment, chlorophyll and carotenoid contents and specific leaf weight were significantly higher than the control.
In conclusion, the foliar-treatment (0.5 g/tree repeated 3 times) was able to control chestnut growth only during the first year.
A single PBZ soil-treatment at 2 g/tree caused excessive reduction in tree growth and total leaf surface area, not compensated for by an increase in photosynthetic rate, with negative consequences on the skeletal formation and productive performance of the tree.
A single soil-treatment of 1 g/tree could be a useful means to control the vigor of young chestnuts.

I DO believe in global warming - that part is indisputable. The earth is warming up. What is in dispute is what is causing the rise in temperature. The swindlers say that it is human activity that is causing the rise in temperature. The scientists say that solar activity is causing the rise in temperature.
Who cares, you may ask? Well, you ought to care if the billions spent to supposedly curb global warming (a bootless enterprise) could instead be effectively used to combat/clean up toxins, fight disease, stop pollution, research alternative energy sources, etc. Yes, we do have to get away from gas/oil, but the "global warming swindle" is being used to make sure that third-world countries stay in the third world and don't get to compete (say, by using their own supplies of fossil fuels).
Go ahead and call me a "nut" etc. I love your ad hominem attacks - it's what people use when they have no substantive arguments.

Okay, let's do this again. Here's a video to watch:
You'll be shocked to learn that global warming appears to be due to magnetic activity on the sun. Other planets are warming, too, and they have no humans or animals to cause any problems. Ice core samples show that temperature increases precede carbon dioxide increases by about 800 years—so the correlation between carbon dioxide increases and a rise global temperature is just that, a correlation. As any intro stat book will tell you, correlation does not mean causation. Most of the global-warming crowd cite data from, at most, the last one hundred years. We aren't even as warm as we were in the middle ages; in the 1970s there was a scare going around about us entering a new ice age!
As others have pointed out, global warming is the perfect globalist cause celebre—pollution knows no national boundaries, taxes can be levied at will, and heavy regulations are needed to reign in our carbon emisssions! Panic, man! In reality, carbon dioxide is less than one percent of our atmosphere, and human-made carbon emissions are a small fraction of that.
I really HATE that I seem to be agreeing with Georgie Porgie (back when he refused to sign the Kyoto agreement), but there you are.
Here's a good article to read; it mentions what financial stake Al Gore has in us all believing in global warming.
WRH just posted a link to this article, which looks good, too:
