Hello! You do not have to speak with the police with regard to the accident or to the damage to your car. If it truly was a hit and run they would most likely cite release you, which is what you are referring to as "paper arrest." However, based on the fact that it occurred so long ago, I would find it hard to believe that they are going to press charges or be able to make a case with such little evidence

Human Barbie Doll Valeria Lukyanova Interview, Bio, Makeup Tutorial, PICTURES, YOUTUBE VIDEO, PHOTOS; Is She Real?
Our readers are fascinated with human Barbie Valeria Lukyanova, and so are we! We've scoured the web to find an interview with the living doll and tell you about her – in her own words.
Lukyanova did an interview with V magazine in 2012 after newspapers began to speculate that the human Barbie was not a real person and instead just a Photoshop hoax. People began to become fascinated with the human Barbie after the Gawker Media women's site Jezebel wrote about her in April 22.
V magazine reports that Lukyanova is a very real person. She is a musician and self-professed practitioner of "astral projection," or out-of-body travel. She was born in the Moldavian city of Tiraspol and now lives in Odessa, Ukraine.
Lukyanova spoke to V about the living doll trend and her day-to-day life. A translator helped her confront rumors and speculation and speak for herself.
"Indeed, I've noticed a trend," Lukyanova said of the living doll phenomenon, which has girls in Russia, the US, and China making themselves up to look like dolls. "Every good-looking woman with fine features and a slim figure looks like a doll. I won't deny that I play along with people's perceptions. I'm amused by the reactions. I don't take it seriously."
Lukyanova is a singer, model and artist but describes herself in another – very strange - way.
"These are just different labels for my creative potential, but they don't describe my true essence," she said. "I'm a teacher at the School of Out-of-Body Travel. It's an international school in which our instructors show students how to leave their physical body and travel in their spiritual body, where you can visit any place on the planet and in the universe. I know that this is the future of mankind and that it has huge potential. Hidden reserves will be tapped soon. "

London 'faces teaching crisis'
Schools in London could see teachers leave in droves if cost of living allowances are not increased, union leaders warn.
Two months after staging a one-day strike in protest at London weighting rates, the National Union of Teachers (NUT) has published a pamphlet in which teachers talk about the difficulties of making ends meet in the capital.
Many of the teachers featured in the NUT pamphlet say they are considering moving out of the capital so that they can improve their quality of life.
Becky Large - a primary school teacher on £28,875 a year - said: "Even if I could get a mortgage I don't think I would be able to afford it taking into account all the other costs that come with being a single homeowner."
"It truly feels hopeless."
Off to Japan
Lewisham secondary teacher Kirsty McNeice said: "I have applied and been accepted to be a classroom assistant in Japan where I will be paid more and taxed less."
Members of the NUT will join with colleagues from the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) and the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT) for a rally at Central Hall, Westminster.
The event - being dubbed a celebration of London teachers - has been organised to highlight the teaching crisis facing London.
General Secretary of the NASUWT Eamonn O'Kane said: "The result of this exodus from London will leave pupils without experienced teachers."
Unqualified teachers
"Already one London borough has 175 unqualified teachers taking classes.
"How can the needs of the capital's diverse range of students, with some 300 languages spoken among primary school pupils, be met when teachers cannot afford to live and work here?"
John Puckrin, the ATL's branch secretary for Lewisham, said: "We will never solve the problems of teacher shortages in London if the Government does not address the issue of student debt."
"Newly qualified teachers are put off working in London because with huge debts to pay off they don't stand a chance of getting on the property ladder."
Starter home initiative
But the unions' concerns have so far left education ministers unmoved - the Education Secretary, Estelle Morris, has said she would not be swayed by threats of strikes.
A spokeswoman for the Department for Education said the government was taking teachers' pay seriously.
"London allowances increased by almost 30% last year - so a teacher who started work in London in 1997 has seen his or her pay go up 63% since 1997," the spokeswoman said.
Head teachers could award discretionary recruitment and retention allowances of up to £5,262, she added, and the starter home initiative was helping some teachers access the housing market.

Police across the US have been criticised for their actions in clashes with Occupy Wall Street protesters. The man who led the police response to the Battle in Seattle protests at the 1999 WTO meeting blames the post-9/11 militarisation of American policing.
"Law enforcement across the country is pursuing the same tactics that failed so miserably in Seattle," Norm Stamper tells BBC World Service's Witness programme.
"There's a lack of patience, there's a lack of imagination and there are clear over-reactions to the challenges the police perceive. It is all so disheartening."
In November 1999, Chief Stamper was one of the main officials charged with managing the huge numbers of demonstrators who brought the city to a standstill in protests against the launch of a new round of global trade talks.
An estimated 50,000 activists from around the world flooded Seattle and occupied strategic crossroads, blocking delegates' access to the convention centre where the talks were to be held.
The demonstrations seriously disrupted the trade talks. The opening ceremony had to be cancelled because most delegates were unable to get to the meetings, and even US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was stuck in her hotel room unable to give the speech she had prepared.
The police responded by spraying the crowd with tear gas, That, says Chief Stamper, set the tone for the next three days.

Most of the job seekers prefer to send a follow up letter after the interview. However, the job seekers with guts like to make a follow up call after interview. It is actually a good move. You are emphasizing the interest to have the job by making this call.
Follow up call after interview has in fact also other advantages, when compared to the traditional letter. You get the answer immediately, that is the first advantage. Plus, you get a feedback from the employer. If you are not chosen for the job, you can ask for a reason.
If for nothing else, at least it helps you to do better in next job interview. Also there is always a chance to arrange a new deal on the phone. You can for example ask the interviewer about other open positions. You never know what can happen.
So, how to decide if you should make a call or just send an email? Some people believe that the follow up call is always better. Well, that is hard to say. But there are for sure situations when it is better to make a call. Particularly it goes about the following scenarios:
- you have a very good feeling after the interview
- you applied for the position in which calling to people is a part of a job (call center, sales representative, etc.)
- you are not good in writing but have good skills on a phone
- you need the feedback immediately
How should a good follow up call after interview look like?
1. Introduce yourself and say why you are calling
Do not expect that the employer remembers you. He may remember you, as well as he may not. Introduce yourself briefly and tell that you are calling regarding the feedback from the interview for particular position (title the position). Do not forget on the enthusiasm in your voice.
2. Be quiet.
To be quiet is a well known selling technique you can use also in the follow up call after interview. You have already introduced yourself and told what you wanted. Now it is the right time to be quiet and let the employer to talk. You should just listen to him.
3. After he announces you the decision, you should react on that.
If the decision is positive, ask him about the next steps. If the decision is negative, try to make as much as possible from that call. First of all, you should ask about the reason. If the reason is not serious (for example there simply was one better candidate), you should definitely ask about other job openings.
If there is nothing available, it will be a time to thank the interviewer. Emphasize one more time that you are interested in similar jobs for the future. Tell the interviewer to call you in case that anything new is available.
4. Finish the follow up call after interview
Now all you can do is to wish the interviewer good luck and finish the call with him. Try to stay positive and friendly. You never know what can happen in the future.
If you prefer writing to calling, have a look at follow up letter after interview. Or, you can check other pages on InterviewPenguin.com. We wish you good luck in your job interview follow up.

Here at Old Ship we strive to bring the values of mind and heart into the work of our hands. Our shared social values are expressed in Old Ship's third purpose, which affirms our intention to "act for ecological and social justice," and by Unitarian Universalist Principles which call us to work for "justice, equity, and compassion in human relations," and toward "the goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all."
Our efforts are supported by the Social Justice Council whose mission it is to explore opportunities for the Old Ship community that sustain social justice programs or initiatives on a local, nation, and global basis.
In 2014 the congregation voted to focus our social justice work particularly on those experiencing Homelessness and Hunger (food insecurity).
Opportunities to Serve Others:
Collecting non[perishable food for the Hingham Food Pantry:
The food pantry has ongoing need for non-perishable food donations. Please refer to the list on the Serving Others section of the Old Ship website for suggestions of foods/supplies they need regularly. Our donation boxes for the food pantry can be found in the vestibule of the Meeting House, and the front and rear entryways of the Parish House. Donations can also be left at the following locations around Hingham: Hammond Real Estate, 13 Leavitt Street, Alpaca Suri, 28 South Street, and Henry's Shoe Repair, 104 North Street. Thanks!
Father Bill's Shelter for the Homeless urgently needs supplies for residents
Items needed:
new twin sized sheets
new twin sized blankets
shampoo and conditioner
new men and women's undergarments (size large)
If you can help by donating any of the items above, put them in the Father Bill's box in the front entryway of the Parish House. Members of the Father Bill's cooking teams will take them to the shelter when they take meals in October and November.
Upcoming SJC Actions
Unitarian Universalist Service Committee's Guest at Your Table is an annual tradition in which congregations learn about and are encouraged to support several people with whom UUSC is working. This year the focus will be on people who have empowered others to realize their human rights. These people are your "guests," and you are asked to share your blessings with them to support our shared mission. We will begin our Guest at Your Table campaign November 24th, the Sunday before Thanksgiving.
Note: If you are involved in serving others in other ways and would like to let our Old Ship community know how they too could become involved, please contact Brenda Black, Chair of the Social Justice Council to have such opportunities included in future newsletters.
Religious Education: Social responsibility for all ages
The religious education program is designed to encourage our young people to develop a sense of social responsibility and to take action to influence change.
Our young people help with projects sponsored by the larger Old Ship community; this year the church is aiming to improve "Access To Education" with programs helping The Mather School, UU Urban Ministry, Roxbury Presbyterian Church's Social Impact Center, Brockton BCC Afterschool Program and Wellspring Multi-Service Center. Other volunteer opportunities include : Father Bill's Meals Teams, Growing Vegetables for Father Bill's (at Holly Hill Farm), Interfaith Food Pantry, and Wellspring Multi-Service Center.
The children and youth also initiate projects and activities that improve our world and the health and well-being of its inhabitants.
For almost four years The Old Ship Youth Group has been making/administering dozens of microloans through Kiva, an online lending platform that allows individuals in the developed world to loan to small business people in the developing world. Other recent projects include: an annual bike drive for Bikes Not Bombs, a Tie-Dye Fundraiser to raise funds for Camp Wowayanke in Rosebud, South Dakota, a rebuild trip to post-Katrina New Orleans and a mission/service/education trip to Washington DC.

Citation: Wang, Z., Jiao, S., Han, G., Zhao, M., Willms, W.D., Hao, X., Havstad, K.M. 2011. Impact of stocking rate and rainfall on sheep performance in a desert steppe. Rangeland Ecology and Management. 64(3):249-256. Interpretive Summary: The rangelands of China are extensive and have a very long history of use as grazinglands for livestock. These lands, and the forage they produce, are critical to animal based food supplies in China and within Asia. In recent decades these resources have been over used in many areas resulting inland degradation. U.S. Scientists have considerable experience in research based recommendations for the proper stocking rates of livestock for rangelands. This publication is one example of US, China, and Canadian scientists collaborating to develop proper guidelines for management of a portion of China's desert rangelands. This 5-year study concluded that stocking rates of desert ranges in Inner Mongolia is very conservative – less than 1 sheep per hectare for a 5-month grazing season. This recommendation is lower than stocking rates typically observed in this region of China.
Technical Abstract: Livestock performance is a critical indicator of grassland production systems and is influenced strongly by precipitation and stocking rates. However, these relationships require further investigation in the arid Desert Steppe region of northeastern China. We employed a randomized complete block design with three replications and four grazing treatments (nongrazed exclosure [Control]), lightly grazed [LG], moderately grazed [MG], and heavily grazed [HG]) by sheep in a continuously grazed system (June to November), to test the effect of stocking rate on sheep performance. The planned stocking rates were 0, 0.15, 0.30, and 0.45 sheep-ha-1 mo-1, for the control, LG, MG, and HG treatments, respectively. However, actual stocking rates were calculated for each paddock in each year based on a 50-kg sheep equivalent (SE). Annual net primary production (ANPP) was determined at peak standing crop in August 2004 to 2008. Live weight gain was determined for the summer and fall periods, as well as the total grazing period, in each year. ANPP decreased with increasing stocking rate, and daily live weight gain per head decreased linearly with increasing stocking rates over the total grazing period but in a quadratic manner over the summer period with a plateau at the lower rates. Maximum sheep production per unit area over the total grazing season occurred at about 2 SE ha-1 for about a 5-mo grazing period, but individual gains per sheep were predicted to decline after about 1 SE ha-1 presumably because of forage limitations. However, in order to achieve stable annual production, we recommend that the Desert Steppe be grazed at about 0.77 SE ha-1 for a 5-mo period (0.15 SE ha -1 mo-1). This estimate is based on published grazing strategies that consider an average ANPP with a recommended utilization rate of 30%.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Roberto Luongo made 12 saves and the Vancouver Canucks survived three Boston power plays in a scoreless first period in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals Friday night.
The series is tied 2-2.
Luongo, ventilated for 12 goals in a pair of lopsided losses in Boston and pulled from Game 4 on Wednesday night, got a break when Chris Kelly hit the crossbar over his shoulder on a 2-on-1 rush 4 minutes in.
But there was nothing lucky about Luongo's redirection stop on Milan Lucic and rebound stop on Patrice Bergeron alone in front with 5 minutes left in the period.
Tim Thomas, coming off his third shutout of the playoffs, made six saves for the Bruins. He gave up just five goals in the first four games.
Thomas, 9-1 in the playoffs when facing more than 35 shots, wasn't busy, and had a few long shots trickle dangerous through him. But he also made a great blocker save on Mason Raymond 5:29 in.
Both teams won their first two home games, but the Bruins seemed to have all the momentum coming into Game 5 after two dominant performances at home.
Instead, the Canucks, who were outhit badly in Boston, set the early physical tone in front of a raucous, towel-waving sellout crowd. But they got carried away at times, with three penalties for overaggressive hits that forced the penalty killers, led by Luongo, to bail them out.
The Bruins are seeking their first title since 1972, and the Canucks — celebrating their 40th anniversary — have never won the championship.
The team that won Game 5 of a tied series has gone on to win the Stanley Cup 71 percent of the time — 15 of 21 series — in finals history. Three of the six exceptions have come in the last decade — the 2009 Pittsburgh Penguins, 2004 Tampa Bay Lightning, and 2001 Colorado Avalanche.
Vancouver came in with five straight wins at home, a streak that dates to May 7 and includes late victories in the first two games of the finals.
The Bruins have lost four straight on the road, but appeared to be control of the Cup finals after convincing wins back in Boston. They had dominated since losing top-line winger Nathan Horton to the late, high hit from defenseman Aaron Rome that knocked him out early in Game 3 — and ended Rome's playoffs with an ensuing four-game suspension. They outscored the Canucks 12-1 in the two games in Boston, with most of the damage coming in the second period.
The Canucks shook up their defense again, dressing 21-year-old rookie Chris Tanev ahead of $4.2-million-a-season veteran Keith Ballard. Ballard struggled in his Cup finals debut in Game 4 in place of the suspended Rome, who had moved into the top four after No. 1 defenseman Dan Hamhuis was hurt in Game 1.
Game 6 is Monday night in Boston.

Purdue 20, Illinois 17: Akeem Shavers rushed for 99 yards and a touchdown as the visiting Boilermakers kept their postseason bowl hopes alive with a victory over the struggling Fighting Illini.
With its second straight win, Purdue (5-6, 2-5 Big Ten) needs to beat archrival Indiana at home next Saturday to secure bowl eligibility. Illinois (2-9, 0-7 Big Ten) lost its eighth straight game, and also lost three fumbles.
With the Boilermakers leading 13-10 late in the third quarter, Shavers scored on a 6-yard run to put Purdue up 10. Illinois would get within 20-17 with 3:28 left in the game, but the Boilermakers recovered the onside kick and then picked up a pair of first downs to seal the win.
Purdue's Robert Marve passed for 173 yards and had a 63-yard touchdown pass to Akeem Hunt, while Nathan Scheelhaase threw for 160 yards and ran for another 76, including a touchdown, for Illinois.

Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., yesterday decided to forgo a widely anticipated ascent to the chair of the Appropriations Committee, the Senate's largest and most powerful committee, in a surprise move that left political pundits puzzled.
After the death on Monday of Sen. Daniel Inouye, D-Hawaii, Senate Appropriations chair and senior most member of the Senate, pundits and media speculated that Leahy would take the position, and leave his current Judiciary chairmanship, which he's held since 2007. As the most senior member of the Senate, Leahy took Inouye's place as president pro tempore of the body on Monday.
But Leahy decided against the move, as did next most senior Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, leaving Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., to become the first female Appropriations chair.
"Chairing the Judiciary Committee and maintaining my seniority on the Appropriations Committee will allow me to protect both the Constitution and Vermont," said Leahy on Wednesday in a statement.
David Carle, Leahy's spokesman, said the senator wanted to stay with the Senate's "busiest committee" and continue to oversee its broad portfolio of issues — Supreme Court nominations, immigration reform, gun control legislation and other constitutional issues.
"It's the committee where the most difficult issues to come before the Senate tend to go," Carle said. "He welcomes that."
Carle added that while it was a difficult decision for the senator, Leahy hasn't lost any advantages for his constituents. As the most senior member of Appropriations, Leahy will be able to secure enough federal funding for the state, he said.
But Garrison Nelson, a UVM political science professor and author of seven books on congressional committees, said he was surprised by Leahy's decision.
"It is the largest committee and the most powerful committee in the Senate with an average 30 members, or 30 percent of the Senate, consequently you get to do a lot of favors for people, make a lot of friends," Nelson said.
But the position's appeal has diminished in recent years, Nelson said, as closer scrutiny of congressional earmarks came into play after excesses by two former Appropriations chairs who funneled disproportionate funds to their states.
He added that Leahy's role in managing the Senate nomination of Supreme Court justices was likely a key reason for him to stay.
"Supreme Court appointments are the longest lasting legacy of any Senate Judiciary chair," said Nelson, who underlined Leahy's success in navigating contentious nominations for Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
With four justices aged over 70, he added, it's likely that President Barack Obama could appoint one or two more justices in his term, with Leahy in an "ideal position" to influence that process.
Both Nelson and Eric Davis, a retired Middlebury College political scientist, said that immigration reform, gun control and Supreme Court nominations are upcoming Judiciary topics that likely tempted Leahy to stick to his Judiciary position.
Davis also said that both Leahy and Harkin's decisions to decline the Appropriations chair could be due partly to the gloomy fiscal outlook of coming years.
"Looking at what the federal budget is likely to be like in the next four years, the Appropriations Committee, much of its work is managing the budget's decline over the next four years," said Davis. "I'm not sure that either Leahy or Harkin thought that would be as enjoyable as working on substantive issues."
Neither Davis nor Nelson thought Vermont would lose out on federal funding because of Leahy's reluctance to lead Appropriations.
Davis said Leahy retains significant influence as No. 2 on Appropriations where he could best use his power to write federal funding formulas to Vermont's advantage, by guaranteeing small states a generous minimum.
"Barbara Mikulski is a good friend of Sen. Leahy, and Vermont will not be deprived with a Mikulski chairmanship," Nelson said.

Sondoko - Poem by David Oluwatobi Akinola
His shaggy hair always reveals visible particles of sand,
His contantly salivating mouth, disgusts like a frogs',
His shirt is always brown and dirty, like rags in shantytowns
The left hand of his trouser is amputated,
clearly revealing a dirty leg, patched with wounds and signs of mosquito bites
His left foot is always in a slipper,
While his right foot in a shoe
He's greatly feared and reproached by women
But, he's married to one of the most beautiful ones in the world,
although, the wife is deaf, dumb, paralysed and one-quarter his size;
and.... she's a doll.
his home is made of concrete, including the roof
but anything can intrude in and out
after all, its under a bridge.
Sondoko! ...
could'nt make much out of life
everyone he came across reproached him like scumbag
and spitted on like a tissue paper
now, his soul has fled its body
into another body draped in white
his phantom is like snow
but radiates like the sun
He no longer drinks nor eats from eccentricity
but from eternal peace.

A COMMUNITY bus service has been launched by Wyre Forest Dial-A-Ride to help patients attend their doctors appointments at a Kidderminster medical centre.
The service is due to begin on Monday and will give patients of Aylmer Lodge and Northumberland House surgeries a way of getting to the new premises at Hume Street Medical Centre.
The minibus service will be calling at regular bus stops in areas such as Birchen Coppice, Ferndale, Puxton Drive and will make stops at Foley Park.
Both medical practices have copies of the service timetable which will also be able to take passengers to Wyre Forest District Council offices and Kidderminster Hospital.
Wyre Forest Dial-A-Ride was granted a Section 22 permit from the Traffic Commissioner to run the community bus which is available to the general public.
Rob Hartell, Wyre Forest Dial-A-Ride co-ordinator, said: "We'll give it a go. It's a new thing for us as a community service but we're trying it and hoping we get there."
The charity is also inviting members to its annual general meeting at Holy Inncocents Church, in Kidderminster, next Wednesday at 2pm for anyone who would like to find out more about the service.

When Anna Mae Thomas became the first African-American woman to graduate from BGSU in 1943, two decades would pass before Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech. It was 26 years until students formed the Black Student Union on campus, and 66 years before Barack Obama became the nation's first African-American president. For the first half of BGSU's century of existence, minority students came to campus eager for an education, but they were also realistic. They knew they would receive a quality education, but opportunities for socialization and other campus activities were minimal. Fraternities and sororities were out of reach and programs and services directly associated with multiculturalism or diversity were nonexistent. At the same time, some BGSU students, faculty and staff were ahead of the curve when social and economic justice for minority citizens was just beginning to gain real traction. Chosen to be among "100 of the 10 BGSU Magazine
Most Prominent Alumni" during the University's centennial year, James Tucker Jr. (Class of '57 and member of the men's basketball team) recalled a particularly compelling example: "There were many professors and administrators who were committed to providing opportunities for all BGSU students. During a game with Marshall in 1955, I was refused service at a restaurant." Tucker went on to describe how his fellow Falcons showed their support: "The team ordered steak dinners and left them on the table in protest of the restaurant's action, and Coach Harold 'Andy' Anderson led the protest." In subsequent years, this sort of fundamental sense of right and wrong, and a growing awareness of the civil rights ethic, led to more and more opportunities for a true university experience for all BGSU students. Today, the Office of Multicultural Affairs offers a variety of programs and services designed to attract and retain diverse student populations and to ensure that multicultural opportunities
are available to all students, faculty and staff. Minority students currently comprise about 20 percent of BGSU's total student population. "Today, we have more than 25 multicultural organizations that students can join," said Emily Monago, interim director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs. She noted that some of the most significant milestones in enhancing diversity were the creation of an Ethnic Studies program in 1971, the addition of Africana Studies in the 1990s and a cultural diversity and international perspectives course requirement for undergraduate degree programs. While minority students make up an increased percentage of the student population, retention remains a primary challenge for this group. "Our biggest hurdle is the retention of minority students," observed Dr. Bettina Shuford, assistant vice president for Student Affairs. "The retention rate for underrepresented ethnic students from the freshman to sophomore years is about the same as the overall student

Jeannette's Pryor picks Ohio State
Terrelle Pryor had a sleepless night. He couldn't eat this morning, and he came to school late.
After calling a noon press conference today at the school's auditorium, the Jeannette star football and basketball player began questioning his decision Tuesday night -- would he select Ohio State and learn from senior Todd Boeckman, or would he pick Michigan and compete for a starting job. Penn State and Oregon were his other finalists.
But after one final talk with his parents, he settled on a school.
After being introduced, Pryor smiled and said, "This is what everyone's here for." Pryor reached into his dad's (Craig) jacket and pulled out an Ohio State University hat and out it on. Under his U.S. Army All-American jacket he wore an Ohio State t-shirt.
"It's an exciting day for the Buckeyes and we're so proud of Terrelle now that he's joined our football family," Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel said. "His mom (Toni) and dad are excited about his decision and we couldn't be happier."
But the dual-threat quarterback, who led Jeannette to a 16-0 record and PIAA and WPIAL football championships, didn't make his final choice until about 11 a.m.
His final choice was a hard one. He liked Michigan's spread offense and the chance to start as a freshman. But he also had the comfort zone with Tressel and the Ohio State players.
"I could have gone wrong either way," Pryor said. "I could've went to Michigan and possibly started. I could've gone to Penn State and Oregon and maybe fought for a starting job.
'At Ohio State, they still have Todd Boeckman there and I can learn from a senior. Ohio State was my leader at first. I got involved with a lot of kids there and I feel comfortable with Coach Tressel."
Pryor rushed for 4,238 rushing yards and passed for 4,340 yards in his career and was the first player in the state to do both. He gained 1,899 rushing and 1,889 passing yards, accounting for 58 touchdowns his senior season.
He was also the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review player of the year as a junior and senior. He also led Jeannette to the school's first PIAA and WPIAL basketball titles and he finished with 2,285 career points.
Pryor was also recognized as the high school player of the year by USA Today, Parade, EA Sports, Scout, Rivals, PrepStar, Superprep and PrepNation; and was the MVP of the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in December.
"Ohio State is what I wanted," Pryor said. "The toughest thing was saying no to the other coaches because I formed a bond with them.
"My parents allowed me to make the decision and backed me no matter what school I chose."
Pryor was set to sign a letter of intent on National Signing Day on Feb. 6, but decided to hold off so he could learn more about the schools. His father encouraged him to wait.
"I just wanted him to be sure," Craig Pryor said. "I didn't care where he went because I told him I'd be there."
Terrelle Pryor eliminated Oregon because of the distance and Penn State because of the location.
Pryor did have high praise for Penn State defensive coordinator Tom Bradley and coach Joe Paterno.
"Terrelle had a great respect for the staffs at Michigan, Penn State, Oregon and former Tennessee coach Dave Cutcliffe," Tressel said. "We always felt pretty good about him because he forged a bond with some of the recruits."

Crying seems to run in the Rudd family.
Last night it was tears of pride as the former prime minister and his wife gathered at a Brisbane bookshop to celebrate the launch of their daughter Jessica's debut novel.
The Rudds were among a small crowd at Riverbend Books in Bulimba, in Mr Rudd's electorate, for the much-anticipated launch of Campaign Ruby.
The novel has garnered hot press thanks to its spookily prescient storyline: it's set during a fictitious federal election campaign after Australia's male prime minister is deposed by his female treasurer.
Ms Rudd addressed the audience, which also included her husband Albert Tse, before signing copies of the book.
She thanked her father - despite having previously admitted she feared she'd somehow caused his untimely exit from The Lodge.
"My dad, despite everything, has been rock-solid in this whole thing – ever since I told him I was going to write," she told the crowd, as tears welled in her father's eyes.
She went on to thank her mother, Therese Rein, who also shed a tear.
"[Crying is] a genetic problem," Ms Rudd said.
In a revealing interview published in Fairfax newspapers last week, Ms Rudd admitted she had called her publisher in tears after Mr Rudd lost his job to Julia Gillard on June 24.
The main character in her novel is Ruby Stanhope, who becomes a policy adviser to the federal leader of the opposition after the treasurer's coup and the announcement of an early election.
The book, described by its publishers as "Bridget Jones on the campaign trail", sparked so much media attention in the wake of the Labor leadership spill that the publishers moved the book launch forward two weeks to capitalise on the election campaign hype.
Last night they announced they had pushed the button on a second print run with no doubt the launch would demand headlines.
"I would like to thank the readers for giving me a go," Ms Rudd said.
"I want the people who read Ruby to love her, as much as I have loved writing her."
Ms Rudd 26, is a former lawyer who lives in Beijing with her husband.

Ausmus Leads as Bubble Bursts, 63 Left at WPT LAPC
Former WSOP November Niner Jeremy Ausmus has the chip lead at the WPT LAPC with the money bubble popped and the race to the final table picking up speed.
Ausmus, who finished fifth in the 2012 WSOP Main Event for over $2m, bagged up just over 1m in chips for the edge on the field heading into Day 4 today.
Ausmus was the only player to crack the 1m mark. He's followed by Blake Barousse at 815,000 and Eric Froehlich at 755,000.
Also cracking the top five in chips is 2011 PCA main event champ Galen Hall (734,000) and recent WSOPC Caesars winner David Tuthill (613,000).
Harman, Laak Among Final 63
All 63 players remaining are now assured of a min-cash ($18,260) but given the depth and quality of the field a lot would be disappointed if that's all they pocketed.
Paul Volpe (570,000), David Peters (375,000), Dan Shak (310,000), Jennifer Harman (304,000) and Zach Hyman (302,000) all topped the 300k-chip mark.
Japan's first WSOP bracelet winner Naoya Kihara (299,000), Brit Sam Razavi (281,000), Phil Laak (266,000) and Noah Schwartz (236,000) are also all decently stacked.
The top 10 in chips heading to Day 4:
- 1. Jeremy Ausmus 1,014,000
- 2. Blake Barousse 815,000
- 3. Eric Froehlich 755,000
- 4. Galen Hall 734,000
- 5. David Tuthill 613,000
- 6. Paul Volpe 570,000
- 7. Ryan Franklin 551,000
- 8. Benjamin Zamani 499,000
- 9. Alexander Venovski 415,000
- 10. Warwick Mirzikinian 378,000
Action picks up from the Commerce Casino in Los Angeles at 12 pm. PT and will play down to the final 18. A tantalizing $1,004,090 awaits the winner.

Forging Email Headers: Good, Bad or Ugly?
My new Ruby on Rails project Hey! Heads Up (H! for short) sends quite a bit of email to notify people about updates from others. Should those updates appear to come from H! or from the person that triggered the notification? I don't know enough about email to answer that question but I'll outline the problem and you can let me know what you think.
Hey! Heads up lets you manage "temporary" links. They are temporary because you don't know if you want to keep them yet or not. Maybe someone sent you an article/video/website but you don't have time to check it out. You'll still want to keep track of it until you do read it but do you really want to bookmark it in the browser or on a site like del.icio.us? H! is a "TODO" list of these temporary links, so you can prioritize them.
Once you do check out the article, H! lets you send it to other people that use H! (and soon to anyone by email). When H! "sends" the item the other people are notified by email that there's a new item in their H! incoming list. Right now this email appears to be from Hey! Heads Up <[email protected]>. Replies to this email address get forwarded to me, the website administrator.
But there are all sorts of problems with this approach to notifying by email, primarily spam filters. Many people are now filtering email by their contact list and/or a whitelist to reduce spam. Unless [email protected] is on their whitelist, people don't get H! notifications.
So my question is: would it be better to "forge" these notification emails to appear as though they are coming from the sender of the item? Presumably these people are already in the contact lists of the people they are sending H! items to, so the notification has a much better chance of making it through the spam filters.
As well, seeing a notification coming from a specific person instead of [email protected] for everyone could make it easier to sort and prioritize these notification emails in a person's email inbox.
Why is forging emails bad? Some spam filters could flag emails sent by mail software from one domain (like heyheadsup.com) and forged with a "from" with another (like gmail.com). But I've seen the technique used in a lot of places, so it's hard to say how much it is frowned upon. As a website creator, forging emails would essentially be sending emails on a person's behalf.
How about the industry leaders? Facebook's notification emails have a from text that looks like: Facebook <[email protected]>. The strange reply address could be used to sort feedback but otherwise it's a little confusing. To top it off, using a similar-but-not-quite-the-same-domain (facebookmail.com instead of facebook.com) for emails is a common phishing technique.
Are there more precedents? Is there any consensus? Opinions are appreciated. Would you want a site to send notification emails in your name?
BTW, if you want to give H! a try it is in alpha testing. Fire me an email at blog[at]ryanlowe[dot]ca to join the alpha test group.Posted at October 19, 2007 at 12:22 PM EST

I dunno.. seems a lot like a solved problem to me.
Google Toolbar has an email this page feature
Tumblr makes for a very quick bookmarking service as well http://engtech.tumblr.com
People use TwitThis to bookmark links to twitter all the time
My guess is the value add from HeadsUp is that the people you're sending links to don't have to use the service as well? If they do, then how does it differentiate itself from this stupidly crowded social bookmarking niche?» Posted by: engtech at October 20, 2007 08:27 PM
I agree: the bookmark niche is getting full.
I went with a general "TODO list" first, not just bookmarks. Then I allowed "sending" to other people that use the service. Then I'm going to let people send items by email to those that don't use the service.
Many of my TODO items on H! are private and not published like other bookmarking (delicious) or mini-blogging (twitter) services. When I want to share on my H! mini-blog (like after I read an article) I just click publish and it's put up for the Internet to see.
I'm really scratching my own itch here, and my main thing is prioritization. I find at least a dozen things a day I want to check out, I just don't have time *right then*. Some items are articles I find on news sites, other items are links that people send me. Some are albums or movies I see somewhere and want to check out later. H! lets me keep them all together and once I've checked them out I can do something with them: publish on my mini-blog and comment on, send to a friend, bookmark permanently, etc.
I'd like H! be in the middle of people's workflow for managing items to check out later. I could even make an API for both incoming and outgoing parts of the workflow.» Posted by: Ryan at October 21, 2007 02:23 PM

In 1910 Salina was in Mishuabtna in Atchinson and that is the last documentation I have of her. It was emurated on April 18th 1910. Is Gone but Not Forgotten a book?

Dear Mary,
Gone But Not Forgotten lists Salina as Salina Good and states her parents are John and Susanna Harmon Good (page 160). The birth and death dates are the same as yours. John and Susanna are also buried in High Creek. John's listing states "born Jan 1, 1812 Washington County, TN - died April 23, 1878 - wife Susannah Harmon". Susanna's information states "born October 30, 1816 - died January 25, 1905, husband John Good." (page 150). There is no Helton listed in the cemetery book.
Salina's daughter lived in Fremont county, Iowa in 1910. Since that is not too far away from Atchison county, it would be a good place to look for Salina's death certificate if you haven't already looked there - she may have spent her last days at her daughter's home and died there and then been buried in Atchison County with her husband.
Atchison County also has many newspapers on microfilm at the county library. If you do not have then, obtaining the obituaries of all of these people would be a great resource.
If you have any more questions I would be glad to look in my resources. You can contact me at

I'm looking for information on the wife of Albert Frank Kellison. I have two
different names. At first my research found a Myrtle Beedle but he is buried
with a Jessie Ann. Albert was born Dec 30 1879 in Watson Missouri. He died May
15 1957 in St. Joesph Missouri. He is buried in High Creek cemetery. His parents
are John and Viola Bell Kellison
I'm also inquiring about Viola Bell's parents. Benjamin Plaster and Salina
Helton Plasters. According to censuses they lived in Atchinson county for many
years.Benjamin was born Nov 5 1836 in Morgan Illionis. He died Feb 17 1908.He is
buried in High Creek Cemetery. His parents are Issac Plasters and Elizabeth
McConnell Plasters. Salina was born Nov 10 1835 in Tennessee. She died Oct 17
1910. She is also buried in High Creek Cemetery. Even though she died in 1910
when I go to Missouri Digital Heritage to find her death certificate in the
1910-1958 collection I cannot find it. So her death date might now be accurate.
I have no names of parents.

I think mpiexec (or pbsdsh with some scheduling mods), plus dynamically sized jobs (which dooesn't exist yet), fits the requirements.

By LESLEY TOTH
At Random
As an avid political junkie, I have never cast a vote without listening/watching/reading everything I can about the candidates.
The past year provided me with plenty of opportunities as the debates between the nine-person pool for GOP nominees whittled that group down to five. And it looks like I will have many more chances to hear their views in 2012.
But as I've watched the back-and-forth, the journalist in me can't help but cock an eyebrow or two at some of the claims being made. It prompted me to do my own research and share those results.
The most recent debate that took place in economically stressed South Carolina not surprisingly focused mainly on jobs and growth. But that focus didn't always remain truthful. Here are a few of the more prominent "pants on fire" moments:
"This president has opened up no new markets for American goods around the world in his three years, even as European nations and China have opened up 44," Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney stated.
The truth? President Barack Obama revived agreements with Columbia, Panama and South Korea in legislation that Congress approved last October. According to the U.S. International Trade Commission, the deal with South Korea alone has the potential to create 280,000 American jobs and boost exports by more than $12 million.
Newt Gingrich had his own Pinocchio moment when he described Chile's retirement system. "First of all, it's totally voluntary. If you want to stay in the current system, stay in it. If you are younger and you want to go and take a personal savings account, which would be a Social Security savings account, you can take it."
Reality? Chile's retirement system is compulsory. Chileans do not have a choice as to whether or not they contribute 10 percent of their first $33,360 in annual earnings to private pension plans. And nothing about it is like Social Security — citizens of Chile have a choice between five private funds, none of which operate publicly like our system.
"Three years into office, [Obama] doesn't have a jobs plan," Romney stated unequivocally.
The facts? Just because Romney may not like them, doesn't mean Obama hasn't offered jobs bills. The stimulus of 2009 was intended to create jobs. Obama's move to cut the payroll tax was also intended to spur growth in spending, which was hoped to increase demand, which creates jobs. His latest proposal would give tax breaks to companies who hire the long-term unemployed and returning military veterans who have experienced much higher rates of unemployment.
How many jobs have or will be developed under these plans is certainly up for debate. But to claim he hasn't had a plan is disingenuous. Three years into office, Obama has had three jobs plans.
"More people have been put on food stamps by Barack Obama than any president in American history," Gingrich stated.
While it's true that more people rely on these subsidies than ever before, it's a bit of a stretch to say Obama put them on the program. And blaming the current White House occupant for the relaxation of food stamp rules in 2002 and 2008 during the former administration's tenure isn't very honest.
I'll continue to watch and listen in the upcoming months. But, as always, with a healthy dose of skepticism and my fingers ready to Google some of the more dubious claims.

So I realized this weekend when we wanted to watch something new, its a pain to sort through all 400 movies in my library and stop at the new/unwatched movies every 40 movies to decide which we want to watch....
How do you guys Sort your movies?
I was thinking a subfolder called "Library" and putting all the old movies in there, but xbmc won't actually seperate the movies right?
How do you guys sort between Old and New Movies?

kromix ,what skin are you using?
if your using the confluence lite mod
one way would be to add a folder on your harddrive
place all your new movies there, add that folder as a favorite
then go to skin settings and add that favorite to the menubar.

a few ways is to seperate them the way you want them in folders say the genre
for example and use file mode, or create playlists using the library mode or a
combination of both also hiding watched.

BUDGET supermarket chain Aldi is taking a green lead in phasing out phosphates from laundry detergents.
The decision, to be announced today, follows a long campaign by New South Wales Australian of the Year Jon Dee to get supermarkets to clear their shelves of products containing phosphates because of their devastating effect on waterways.
All laundry detergents at Aldi's 250 stores in Australia will be phosphate-free by 2013, the chain's buying manager, Stefan Kopp, said.
"This initiative will not only benefit the environment but also our customers who are increasingly aware and concerned about the environmental impact of their purchasing decision,'' Mr Kopp said.
Mr Dee, founder of Do Something!, said 308 million Americans could only buy phosphate-free laundry powder, ''so why can't 22 million Australians do the same? … Coles and Woolies are in a position to ensure that all leading laundry detergents can go phosphate-free at no extra cost to consumers.''
Phosphates are used in laundry and dishwashing products because they help soften hard water and break down dirt, but once released in waste water they can cause algal blooms that starve aquatic life of oxygen.
But the amount released into Australian waterways is ''negligible'', said ACCORD, which represents laundry powder manufacturers such as Unilever and Colgate Palmolive.
''The issue is, quite simply, a furphy,'' said an ACCORD spokesman. Unlike the US and Europe, where big population centres were on rivers, most Australian cities were on the coast, so phosphates could be dispersed in the ocean.
Mr Dee, however, cited an algal bloom in 1991, when nearly 1000 kilometres of the Barwon-Darling river system in NSW was described as ''a long ribbon of pea soup''. The CSIRO blamed this partly on high phosphate concentrations, he said.
Dishwasher tablets are particularly high in phosphates, some containing more than 30 per cent, but are not included in the Aldi announcement.

Jennie Bettini was born in Martinez. She and her late husband, John, built their home in Menlo Park in 1933. Ms. Bettini was employed at a French laundry in Palo Alto for many years. Mr. Bettini worked in the family dairy business on Arastradero Road in Palo Alto.
The couple attended many functions at the Italian-American Social Club in Menlo Park and attended the Church of the Nativity. In retirement, Ms. Bettini loved ballroom dancing, taking part in the dance parties at Little House. "I knew every step, including the cha-cha," she says.
Although her dancing days are over, Ms. Bettini is happy to be living at home in Menlo Park, with the help of a caregiver. She sees her only son, Norman, frequently and talks to granddaughter, Linda, every day. Her nephew, Rick Ciardella, lives in Menlo Park, and another nephew, Larry Ciardella, resides in Milpitas.


text: Are you familiar with the term "reverse cowgirl"? If you are not, let me explain. It's not a woman riding on a horse backwards. It's a sexual position in which the woman is on top and facing away from the man. You get it? Now, T-Pain has seen fit to give the position a salute in the form of a song, "Reverse Cowgirl." The video, which is sort of like a slow jam homage to doin' it that way, features a woman flailing around on the floor with a saddle on her back. It also features T-Pain singing in that horrible Auto-Tune way. The lyrics are, well, they are what they are, aren't they? "I like how you do it," he caterwauls, "just put it in reverse cowgirl." Sounds like he's asking her to put the car in second gear. Needless to say, I won't be doing the reverse cowgirl on the dance floor anytime soon.

TEMPE, Ariz. The Arizona Cardinals have two weeks to climb down from their desert high.
They'll need the time.
Defense, offense and - of course - special teams drew praise from coach Ken Whisenhunt in the wake of the Cardinals' 30-24 overtime thriller over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
It was the signature victory so far in Whisenhunt's two-year effort to build a winner out of a franchise with a sorry history.
"We've made great progress as a team," Whisenhunt said Monday. "I think that showed up yesterday on the game, just from the standpoint of being mentally tougher."
Arizona heads into its bye week 4-2, with a two-game lead in the mediocre NFC West. The Cardinals next play at Carolina on Oct. 26.
Whisenhunt gave the players Monday off to savor the big victory.
"We'll probably get in one day of work this week on Wednesday," he said. "We'll decide from that point whether we work on Thursday, but they'll have off for sure Friday, Saturday and Sunday."
The off week is much appreciated to help the injured, particularly wide receiver Anquan Boldin, recover from injuries. But the flip side is preserving the momentum gained in consecutive victories over Buffalo and Dallas.
"I want to keep this feel that we have," Whisenhunt said.
Arizona's defense gave up 374 yards against the Cowboys, 301 through the air. But 125 yards came on two plays: Tony Romo's 55-yard TD pass in the first half to Patrick Crayton and Romo's 70-yarder to Marion Barber in Dallas' second-half comeback.
The Cardinals pressured Romo all day, knocking him down 19 times, including three sacks. The Dallas quarterback had been sacked only four times in the previous five games.
The sack by Chike Okeafor on the first play of overtime resulted in a broken finger that will sideline Romo for up to four weeks. Romo threw incomplete the next two plays, setting up the blocked punt by Sean Morey that ended the game.
Romo said the Arizona defensive line was the difference in the game.
"All we've been hearing is how big this (Dallas) offensive line is, they're big and their running back runs so hard," Cardinals tackle Darnell Dockett said. "I told my D-line at the beginning of the game one thing you can't teach is quickness. You can counter that with everything they do. A lot of big plays we made were with second effort."
The defense also got Whisenhunt off the hook after he made a puzzling decision to go for an onside kick after Arizona tied the game 14-14.
The Cardinals' high-octane offense stalled through the first half, but got in gear in the second, scoring 17 consecutive points to give Arizona a 24-14 lead.
Larry Fitzgerald was his spectacular self and Steve Breaston had another big game in relief of the injured Boldin. Breaston caught eight passes for 102 yards and has 24 receptions for 301 yards in the last three games.
But it was the special teams that grabbed the glory.
It started with J.J. Arrington's return of the opening kickoff 93 yards for a touchdown. Arrington, inactive the first four games, joined Gale Sayers, Mercury Morris, Ike Thomas and Steve Odom as the only NFL players since 1964 with two opening kickoff returns for scores in their careers.
The previous four times the Cardinals had won the coin toss this season, they deferred and started the game on defense. This time, Whisenhunt decided to start on offense.
"I knew that we were going to catch it and run it back for a touchdown," he joked. "I thought it might be a good start."
Then Morey and Monty Beisel ended it.
Morey noticed that there would be no blocker between him and punter Mat McBriar. He rushed untouched to deflect the kick. Beisel scooped the ball off the turf at the 3-yard line, then bowled into the end zone.
"It was just a fantastic way to end the day," Beisel said.

Television is "better than ever", buzzed
But the American TV awards contained a big warning for all three of Australia's free-to-air commercial networks as they enter a new chapter.
This year, for the first time, not a single network show was nominated in the best drama category. If TV really is in a "golden age", as another winner claimed, then it's the cable companies that are enjoying it.
Of course, the Australian free-to-airs have enjoyed much greater protections than networks in the United States. Our anti-siphoning provisions, which guarantee the best sports stay free for viewers, have helped limit penetration of pay-TV to just 26 per cent of homes, versus 90 per cent of American homes.
But the endless amount of rival entertainment available for free on the web (as well as for a fee on Foxtel) is squeezing the top and bottom lines of the free-to-air industry.
That inevitably affects its ability to invest in original, compelling, award-winning content.
And whatever form the national broadband network eventually takes, it will open the industry up to a deluge of competition from new web broadcasters seeking eyeballs.
Again, events in the US – where high-speed broadband is more advanced – look prescient. There, many younger Americans are shunning the incumbent platform, cable, altogether, and are opting for internet television options.
Australia's incumbent entertainment platform – free-to-air television – is not just experiencing a shift in viewers' habits, but those of advertisers too. You'll probably have noticed that many YouTube clips you click on now are preceded by a video ad that has the same production qualities as a television commercial. As far as advertisers are concerned, these ads will also be better targeted, lower cost and their impact instantly measurable (based in part on whether or not you click through and spend money).
And while you probably don't watch TV at work (unless you work in a bank and watch financial news) you probably do look at Facebook: it's twice as popular as Google in terms of online traffic in the workplace.
Advertising guru
Those boundaries are blurring as more and more TV-like content is consumed over the internet. A 25-year-old in the US would probably not understand the difference between a free-to-air broadcast network and a cable channel.
Likewise, they probably watch very little television in a linear way, except big sporting events and perhaps American Idol. Everything else is pick and mix on your personal video recorder as and when you want it.
And it's increasingly easy to skip the ads, which is obviously terrible news for the US networks, which are suing pay-TV satellite Dish over its service, which allows punters to instantly bypass commercials.
Gyngell and his co-chief executives at Ten and Seven know all this stuff, of course.
The question is, which one of them has the vision and the backing to transform their network for this wonderful and frightening new age?

Mofaz Wins Kadima Leadership, Calls Livni to Stay (INN) ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS) By Elad Benari 03/28/12)
Source: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/154231#.T3KQ32GO2So
INN} ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS Articles-Index-Top
MK Shaul Mofaz beats MK Tzipi Livni for the leadership of the Kadima party, wins a majority of 61.7%.
MK Shaul Mofaz was elected on Tuesday to be the new chairman of the Kadima party. Mofaz beat his rival MK Tzipi Livni, who has headed the party since 2008, and will assume the position of opposition leader.
According to final results, as announced by the Chairwoman of Kadimas Election Committee, Judge Edna Beckenstein, Mofaz received 23,987 votes making 61.7 percent of the vote, and Livni received 14,516 votes making up 37.2 percent.
Shortly after the judge´s announcement, Mofaz made his victory speech in which he said, This evening Kadima won, and I thank each of you for your support.
Mofaz, who invited Livnis supporters to join him on stage, said, This evening marks the emergence of the alternative government to the bad government of Binyamin Netanyahu. Out of this evening comes out one Kadima, Kadima which is the largest party in the Knesset, the leader of the opposition which renews the hope of most of Israels citizens.
Directly addressing Livni, Mofaz said, I call on Livni to stand with us in this war. I want to say from this podium to Tzipi Livni: Tzipi, you belong with us.
The polls closed at 10:00 p.m. Israel time and as of 9:00 p.m. only about 38 percent of party members exercised their right to vote in the primary. Analysts predicted earlier that a low turnout would likely play out in Mofazs favor.
Shortly after 1:00 a.m., Livni made a short statement to the media and said, I want to thank the volunteers and all the members of Kadima who gave me their trust.
Livni said that she called Mofaz and congratulated him on his victory but refused to answer questions, saying, It is late at night and time to go to sleep. She added that she does not currently intend to make announcements regarding her political future.
Kadima faction chairman, MK Dalia Itzik, also called Mofaz and congratulated him on his victory. Itzik said that she hopes that Livni will remain in the party.
On paper, Kadima is Israel´s largest party, having won one more Knesset Member than Likud in the last general elections. Since Livnis failure to form a coalition government, the party has fallen into disfavor under her leadership, which has been far from inspiring supporters.
Polls have shown that no matter who wins the neck-to-neck leadership contest, the real winner may be Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and the nationalist camp. All political surveys indicate that Kadimas strength in the Knesset would crumble if elections were held today, no matter who heads the party. Labor, the Likud, and a new party headed by Yair Lapid would pick up the crumbs. (IsraelNationalNews © 2012 03/28/12)

It's always great to witness first hand the influence the Vossen brand carries all over the world. We continuously strive to raise the bar with each tour stop and the Vossen World Tour Toronto was truly epic.
Toronto is the largest city in Canada and remains one of the most culturally diverse cities in the world with a huge and proud network of automobile enthusiasts. When our team landed from Miami, we headed straight to the amazing Ertefa car meet where a huge Vossen section was a warm welcome while showing domination. Next we met up with the incredibly hospitable JRP, our official Toronto distributor. The CN Tower, Toronto's tallest landmark, towered over us at the Intercontinental Downtown and was definitely a sight to see in the brisk night.
For the first time, the crew from Vossen was present at Importfest 2013, Canada's biggest and baddest car show. The renowned event exceeded all expectations as we got the chance to show off our fresh new gear and products while giving away a ton of Vossen swag which created tremendous excitement. The Jaro sisters made an appearance as well with us which blew attendees away. Did we mention Niagara Falls? Next level.
Vossen Wheels wants to hear from you!

Digital video content provider Netflix (NFLX) appears to be firing on all cylinders with having exceeded 1 billion hours of viewing for the first time in June. And, the company hopes to best that record following the debut of political drama "House of Cards" in late 2012 and "Arrested Development" scheduled for early 2013.
A Netflix application designed specifically for Windows 8 was also mentioned in Microsoft's (MSFT) recent presentation related to its new Surface tablet device. The Netflix application operating on Windows 8 enables viewing in wide screen with no banding or letter boxing, as is the case with traditional platforms.
Netflix's stock price plummeted after the company's misstep related to product/pricing changes in early of July of 2011, but has since put in a double bottom with support in the $65 range, and is currently trading around $80 as shown below:
A protected covered call or collar search performed using PowerOptions tools, seeking to find the highest returning position for profitable companies with a maximum potential loss of 8% and a stock price in an uptrend produced Netflix as shown below:
Netflix took up the two highest potential protected covered positions and was followed by Internet security company VernetX Holding (VHC) discussed in this article, pharmaceutical company Warner Chilcott (WCRX), cyber security company Sourcefire (FIRE) and application delivery networking company F5 Networks (FFIV) discussed here.
A protected covered call may be entered by selling a call option against a purchased or existing stock and using some of the proceeds from selling the call option to purchase a protective put option. The highest returning potential covered call for Netflix has a potential return of 5.4% (51% annualized) and a maximum potential loss of 7.8%, so even if Netflix's stock price drops to zero, the maximum loss which can be experienced is 7.8% (at expiration).
The highest returning positions as shown above were found by selecting to search and sort by the highest returning positions. Stock price for companies in an uptrend were found by selecting to include companies with a 100-day moving average greater than the 200-day moving average. The 8% maximum loss parameter was selected, as a loss of 8% or less can typically be recovered fairly quickly using income generating investment methods.
A high returning protected covered call was discussed in a previous article for Netflix, and the position is currently profitable and appears to be on its way to realizing the full return of 4.2% (33% annualized).
Netflix is scheduled to release its quarterly earnings results on Tuesday, July 24, 2012, which is probably why the company popped up as one of the highest returning protected covered call positions. The premiums for a company's stock options often become inflated near an earnings event.
An investor seeking to capitalize on Netflix's high returning protected covered call can enter the position by selling the 2012 Aug 80 call option at $7.55 and purchasing the 2012 Aug 70 put option at $3.35.
- NFLX stock (existing or purchased)
- Sell 2012 Aug 80 Call at $7.55
- Buy 2012 Aug 70 Put at $3.35
A profit/loss graph for one contract of the Netflix protected covered call position is shown below:
For a stock price below the $70 strike price of the put option, the value of the protected covered call remains unchanged (at expiration). If the price of the stock increases to around $90, the position can most likely be rolled in order to realize additional potential return.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Valerie from Baronett, WI writes: Please tell me how to permanently change the font and font size on my PC. I am using Windows 7.
Answer: Valerie, you can do it in a few easy steps. You start off by going to the Start Menu and selecting Control Panel.
In the search box at the upper right of the control panel, type Change window colors and metrics.
That will bring up the Personalization option. Click on Change Windows colors and metrics.
You'll open Windows Color and Appearance.
Select the part of Windows you wish to change the appearance of from the drop-down menu. Not every item will give you the option to change the font and color. Say you wanted to change the Menu, you would have the options to select a font, change the size, change the color or make it bold.
You'll see a preview of any changes you make at the top of the window.
I will caution you that not very many fonts and colors actually work very well for this purpose. What works in a greeting card may not look very appealing on a computer desktop. Below I switched my font to a script font on a red background. Something I may or may not have actually done on my own computer many years ago.
If you're happy with how your changes look, click OK and then apply. These changes aren't "permanent," but they'll remain in place until you decide to change them.
Hope this helps.
~ Cynthia

The sandal is pictured in cartoon-form against the New York skyline on a wheeled plank, held up by wires emerging from the ground.
He has no stirrups; his foot, small and narrow, is shod with a sandal of morocco leather.
I there joined the sandal wood trader, which has been so fearfully destroyed.
A Brahman and a servant for carrying the sandal were sent with the Puri, and given their travelling expenses.
Then he saw that her sandal was tied in the way he had already wondered at.
I looked down at her little foot, and thought how pretty it must have looked in the Greek sandal.
The sandal consists in making a perfumed embrocation from sandal wood.
The oracle in Delphi has said, that a man wearing one sandal should take the kingdom from Pelias, and keep it for himself.
The sandal and other ceremonies are similar to those described already.

'Buzzard Breath' is not on the left side of the Amphitheater. Kelley's map was extended to both ends to fill an entire page. The Amphitheater has three distinct, separate walls each of different character. 'Buzzard Breath' is on the cliff line before the Amphitheater, downhill and climber-left. Natural anchors are either using a large block, or very long runners to two trees. Both are above a ledge that is the rim for the route. The face is sloped and curved outward, with three lines of different character and difficulty, from 5.7 to 5.9 (or reportedly 5.10). Belay is in the Trail; and another route there has been chopped because of its Trail congestion. There is a deep wide crack on both sides, the left climbable, the one on the right probably what Kelley listed as 'I'm Flyin', with 'Too Old to Rock & Roll' farther right and making a corner with the left side of the Amphitheater.

This climb is dirty, dirty, and dirtier. I see people on it sometimes, but I think the rain just happens to wash a lot of dirt here.
It has good exposure though, and some fun little moves. Pulling the right bulge near the top is definitely 5.10, but is the only 5.10 spot on the climb.
Has 3 shiny bolted anchors at the top (rig two depending on what face you prefer).
