Bayou Marcus Water Reclamation Facility is operated by
Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) and is
authorized to discharge 8.2 MGD of reclaimed water to
the Bayou Marcus receiving wetland system. The wetland
system lies adjacent and discharges to Bayou Marcus, a
tributary of Perdido Bay near Pensacola, Florida.
Discharge of reclaimed water to the Bayou Marcus
wetland began in May of 1998. The wetland is split by
the Bayou Marcus Creek into the Northern and Southern
portions. Currently, discharge (ranging from 5.5 to
6.1 MGD, monthly) is only occurring in the Northern
half, which is approximately 650 acres of black titi,
slash pine, blackgum, gallberry, Atlantic white cedar,
bald cypress, and a mixture of bays.
discharge of consistently high quality effluent has
been key in the restoration of this previously damaged
due to illegal logging wetland system. An
expansive boardwalk was also built in the Northern
wetland that not only provides access to the wetland
for sampling and to the discharge piping system, but
also offers rare opportunity to tour a natural wetland
without getting your feet wet. Please see the story
below for more information.
Special Invitation to One of Northwest Florida's
Best-Kept Secrets:
Steve Woods, Bayou Marcus WRF Manager
and the Bayou Marcus Water Reclamation Facility invite
you to take a walk on the recently completed Boardwalk
from our plant near Perdido Bay.
Boardwalk is a little different from the boardwalk at
the beach, but I guarantee you will see just as many
and maybe more exotic specie. The view can be summed
up simply by: "Take a walk through a real
Northwest Florida Wetland without getting your feet
are lots of critters to be seen. Snakes are NOT on the
boardwalk but lizards and frogs are. I once watched a
kid chasing lizards so much I laughed until I was out
of breath! The Boardwalk is built above the wetlands
to separate us from the Flora and Fauna and also to
support our discharge piping.
have a tremendous amount of birds on the site. Our
regular bird-watching visitors have recorded Ducks,
Hawks, Catbirds, Sparrows, Cardinals, Robins, Chimney
Swifts, Martins, Warblers, Finches, Herons, Doves,
Mockingbirds, and a host of others in their on-site
logbook. We have additionally spotted Bald Eagles,
Egrets, White Ibis, Falcons, Pelicans, Storks, Black
Skimmers, and we always have several nesting pairs of
Osprey's during the spring. We believe that the
abundance of fresh, clean water keeps the large and
diverse bird population on our site. That fresh, clean
water is out treated effluent of course! And that is
to the tune of more than 5.9 million gallons per day.
During the Fall, I plant Wheat, Rye, Oats, and Clover
so the birds and other animals have a good variety of
high protein vegetation to eat.
have a very good population of White Tailed Deer and
even a few Osceola Turkeys. For those walkers who can
quietly ease along, their reward may be a glimpse of a
group of feeding Deer or Turkeys. Gray Foxes,
Raccoons, Rabbits, Beavers, Bobcats, Turtles, Otters,
Snakes, and even Alligators are regulars on or around
the site, though not necessarily from the Boardwalk.
are 17 known Endangered, Threatened and Species of Special
Concern observed at the Bayou Marcus Wetlands. They are:
American Alligator; Eastern Indigo snake; Gopher tortoise;
Brown pelican; Lest tern; Pine woods bluestem; Spoon leaf
sundew; Pineland bogbutton; Panhandle lily; Southern
twayblade; Naked stem panic grass; Yellow butterwort;
Chapman's butterwort; Southern butterwort; Rose pogonia;
White-top pitcher plant; and Parrot pitcher plant.
Southern Twayblade, a very rare orchid, was found within a
sampling transect. The occurrence of the orchid in Escambia
County represents a range extension for this species. Dr.
Loran Anderson of Florida State University has confirmed
that this species has not been previously recorded from
Escambia County. According to our biological contractor, the
application of our reclaimed water to the site has not
adversely affected the populations of the listed species
that are known to occur.
the Boardwalk is open for public enjoyment only during the
daylight hours, but for 365 days a year. I always reserve
the one condition where the Boardwalk may have short periods
of closure whenever we perform maintenance that may be
dangerous to an observer. To be honest, I have not had to
restrict access since we completed its construction. We get
an occasional onlooker while we work, but we will take that
opportunity to chat with them.
maintain a voice mail/message/info telephone line just for
announcements. But it is also a way for people to let me
know they would like to schedule a tour of the plant, they
would like additional information or just have a general
question. The phone number for Boardwalk Information is
(850) 458-1658.
different seasons require a few basic safety rules for
walking on the Boardwalk. And children should always be
accompanied by a sufficient amount of guardians. As much as
my staff would like to, we cannot help with that duty. Only
during a plant tour can I provide some support there.
the hot months, people should bring lots of cool fluids with
them to drink. The temperature in the wetlands is higher
than elsewhere and the humidity is always 100%! They should
wear light colored, loose fitting clothes and comfortable
walking shoes. I would discourage open toed shoes because
the Boardwalk is made of wood. As wood ages, it tends to
splinter. We try to keep those boards changed out, but there
will always be a hazard of splinters. The handrails splinter
a lot so children should be advised by their guardians to
not run their hands along the boards. The Boardwalk deck
also heats up as the day goes on so I would advise early
morning/late evening excursions. Most folks may also want to
wear a hat to keep the eyes and heat shaded.
the cold months, warm clothes and windbreaker jackets make
the walk comfortable. I like to wear jersey gloves and would
recommend them. Still bring lots of fluids, though a choice
between hot or cold beverages can be made.
The walk
is about 300 yards to the Boardwalk ramp, then a mile and a
half to the end. It goes one way so only go as far as you
are willing to walk back.
I could
go on but I don't want to "swamp ya." However in
closing I MUST add, "don't forget your bug spray
during the warm months!" Come see us, but it's always
best to call the information line first.

No McMansions For Generation Y-er's (those born between 1980 and 2000)
Generation Y couldn't be any different than their parents generation! I see it in my nephew. They don't want those huge McMansions they're parents lived to obtain. They want" Urban Living" in renovated buildings. There is no yearning for big formal living rooms and jacuzzi's. In fact, they don't even want to have to depend on a car. They like to be able to walk to wherever they need to go.
You see it happening in downtown Grand Rapids! So many of those old warehouse buildings being turned into a beautiful place to live. Buildings and rooms that ooze with warmth, originality and character. Beautiful exposed brick walls, exposed wood ceiling beams, lots of open space, original refinished wood floors, and lots of window, are the standard. There are open rooftops for sunbathing or dancing beneath the moonlight and the stars. All within walking distance of work, the nightlife, friends and whatever else enhances their life.
Generation Y learned something from their parents. More is not always better…and the same is not always best…

WEYMOUTH kickboxing inst-ructor Giles Richards got his career as a promoter off to a great start at Club Neo in Yeovil.
The full contact show proved to be a huge success with Richards managing to make the event a complete sell out.
Fighters from up and down the country, including some of Richards' own, took part with Alex Reid acting as the host and MC.
One of Richards' students from the Matt Fiddes Martial Arts School in Weymouth, 38-year-old Anthony Quinn, made his debut on the night, and won.
Fighting a full contact K1 contest, he won every round against his much younger opponent.
"Me, his friends, and all the students at our Weymouth club are so proud of him," said Richards, who will be running a similar show, also in Yeovil, in July.
Meanwhile, following his Southern Area title win at the end of last year, Richards has accepted the offer of an English title fight at the end of April.
There are classes for all ages and abilities at Richards' club in Weymouth, and for information, telephone 07852148735

Amy Leahy is a talented young athlete from Fishguard who recently took part in the Sainsbury's 2012 School Games, which was held at the Olympic Village.
This allowed the highly talented sprint hurdler to try out the Olympic Games facilities in advance.
Amy tells her story of a momentous weekend as follows: "From the May 6th-9th, I had the privilege of travelling to London to compete in the Sainsbury's 2012 School Games, which is a multi-sport event consisting of teams from Wales, Ireland, Scotland and England coming together to compete in 12 different sports.
"The games was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and especially this year in particular as it was held in the Olympic Village, with the athletics, cycling and swimming being held in the actual Olympic Stadiums before they are used in the summer.
"May 6th saw all teams from every sport come together for the opening ceremony, which was held in the ExCel Centre in the village, where the majority of the sports took place. The Ceremony was opened by triple jump world record holder Jonathan Edwards and Paralympian Tanni Grey-Thompson, who welcomed everybody to the games and spoke of their experiences as athletes. The ceremony then finished with Lord Sebastian Coe coming to the stage to also speak of his personal experiences and wish everybody luck for the games.
"Day Two and Three of the games saw all the sports begin, apart from those being held at the Olympic venues, and as my sport is athletics, I was able to watch a variety of sports such as volleyball, judo and gymnastics. I was also able to try out new sports such as wheelchair basketball, which I never thought I would have had the opportunity to experience. Day Two also gave me the opportunity to attend 'an evening with...' which saw stars such as Jason Gardener attend with his Olympic Gold medal.
"Finally, the last day of the games saw my chance to compete in the Olympic Stadium, where I hurdled my way to fourth place, in a personal best time. The opportunity to even visit the stadium is amazing but to actually have competed on the track before the professionals such as Usain Bolt and Jessica Ennis is surreal. Running for Wales for the first time on the Olympic track is an experience that will stay with me forever and when I'm watching the stars run on the track in the summer, I'll able to say that I've run on that same track before them."
Joanne Williams, Dragon Sport Co-ordinator, Sport Pembrokeshire, told Western Telegraph: "Amy is one of our excellent Silver Ambassadors attending Ysgol Bro Gwaun and we are very proud of her at Sport Pembrokeshire for the work she has done. Add to that her athletic prowess and she is an amazing girl."

Schwarzenegger On Breacher And More
Arnie talks up 'the new Predator'
In the latest Arnie Schwarzenegger comeback special edition of Empire, there is a 16-page long interview with the action icon. Hidden therein are more than a few details about his upcoming projects, including the David Ayers' Breacher.
For those not in the know, Breacher (formerly Ten), is an ensemble piece starring Sam Worthington, Terrence Howard, Olivia Williams and Arnold Schwarzenegger, with Arnie playing the head of a corrupt DEA task force whose members are gradually falling to foul play.
"All of these projects are appealing because they give me the chance to slowly come back rather than rush into it," explains Arnie. "I like the idea of starting again, but trying to come back halfway down and working my way slowly back up again. So that's the idea, to do more personal stories and ensemble pieces like Predator."
"Breacher, especially, will be very like a new Predator," he adds. "It's a team around me and they get knocked off until there's only me left. Except in this casethere will be a different twist to the whole thing instead of some alien monster."
"I think that Predator, when I look back at it, was a very appealing kind of a movie. It was also good that I was not the only star of it. I mean, I was the star of it because at the end the focus goes to me, but you can let other people shine too – give them screen time and not be in every scene. So I think that's what I like about Breacher and the way it's written. But it is a great character, an extremely interesting character and very well written. David Ayers is really talented."
For more on Breacher from Arnie's co-star, Olivia Williams, be sure to check out our Empire Podcast interview with her where he mentions more on just what it's like to work with the big man, as well as details on the film itself.
Then there's the question mark that hangs over Arnie in any interview he might do – what of the character that he's still best known for... The Terminator?
"I think (producer) Megan Ellison owns the rights to Terminator 16, or whatever it is. They have been trying to put a script together but I've not seen it, so I've no idea. There's nothing on the drawing board at this point. Nothing on the plan."
For more details on Arnie, be sure to read the latest issue of Empire – on shelves Thursday September 27 – which has so much Schwarzenegger in it, you may well cry with with joy. And to make sure you get lovely limited edition covers every month, subscribe to Empire today.

* Conservatives fume over nuclear deal with 6 world powers
* President, foreign minister have Khamenei's backing so far
Iran's foreign minister defended himself on Tuesday against what he called "slander, profanity and insults" by conservative hardliners at home who have accused him of undermining the state and are pushing for his position to be reviewed.
Mohamed Javad Zarif was Iran's chief negotiator in a breakthrough deal struck with world powers last month under which Tehran is to curb its disputed nuclear programme in exchange for some respite from sanctions.
Some pro-security hardliners in Iran's complex power structure have complained that its negotiators gave up too much in Geneva by agreeing to stop higher-grade uranium enrichment in return for only limited relief from sanctions.
The resistance of a small but vocal minority has underlined the challenges to moderate President Hassan Rouhani in seeking to improve relations with Iran's long-time Western foes without provoking conservatives, who dominate parliament.
Twenty of the 290 members of parliament wrote to Rouhani on Sunday asking him to reassess Zarif's post after several public statements they described as "indecent", Fars news agency reported.
One occurred during a visit to Tehran University in which Zarif was quoted by local media as saying the West feared the might of the Iranian people, rather than its military defences, which he said it could destroy with a single bomb if it wished.
Zarif later said that this and other contentious comments attributed to him had been skewed or taken out of context.
"It's a shame that a small minority distorted my response to one of the students' questions to further their own political views," Zarif said in a post on Facebook on Tuesday.
"They have made up for their discomfort about the passionate support of the people for the government... with insults, profanity and slander."
In another statement, Zarif was quoted as saying that Iran was ready to negotiate over Abu Musa, one of three disputed islands to which both the Islamic Republic and the United Arab Emirates lay claim.
Since winning an election by a landslide in June, Rouhani has explored a diplomatic opening with the West and the Gulf region in a significant foreign policy shift after eight years under confrontational predecessor Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Rouhani has enjoyed the crucial protection of clerical Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who has the final say in Iran's nuclear policy and has so far endorsed the preliminary deal.
The West has suspected Iran's nuclear work is aimed at producing a nuclear weapons capability. Tehran denies this, saying it is enriching uranium only for peaceful purposes.
One of the more outspoken critics is Hussein Shariatmadari, editor of the hardline Kayhan newspaper, who said Zarif had sent a "signal of surrender" to the West and criticised Rouhani for alleging that sanctions-ridden Iran had all but run out of funds at the time he took office in August.
"If the enemy receives a message that our coffers are empty, that the regime's defence system can be destroyed with one bomb, that the absolute sovereignty of Iran over the island of Abu Musa is negotiable, what hope is there against them thinking the hands of our negotiating team are empty, and (they are) marching to victory?" Shariatmadari wrote in an editorial.

Introduction Buy Diarex Without Prescription, Many inventors initially have difficulty understanding the claims of a patent application or issued patent. It doesn't help that claims are required to be a single sentence (which may stretch to a page or longer) and contain specialized legal jargon. Buy Diarex online without prescription, Yet an understanding of claims is perhaps the most important factor, in my experience, delivered overnight Diarex, Buy no prescription Diarex online, in an inventor's ability to help me prosecute their application. Fortunately, Diarex in us, Order Diarex from mexican pharmacy, it is possible to become comfortable with the concept and practice of patent claims with a little give and take between an inventor and his or her attorney. This post should give you a good grounding in the topic and any remaining questions should be easily answered by your attorney.
Description and Example
At the end of every patent application or issued patent is a section beginning with the words "I Claim:" or "We Claim:" followed by a numbered list, order Diarex no prescription. Cod online Diarex, Each number in the list is a separate claim, and each describes an invention that the inventor(s) claims to be his or her own and entitled to patent protection. The claims define the invention that is or will be protected by your patent, next day Diarex. When determining whether someone has infringed your patent, a court will look to the claims of your patent and see if the allegedly infringing product or process falls within the scope of one of the claims. If not, it does not infringe, regardless of what is in the other portions of the patent. For this reason, it is the claims of your application that the Examiners at the USPTO examine for patentability, Buy Diarex Without Prescription. Diarex trusted pharmacy reviews, A claim has 3 parts, a preamble, where to buy Diarex, Diarex gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, a transitional phrase, and a body. For purposes of illustration, order Diarex online c.o.d, Purchase Diarex online, here is an example claim:
1. A writing implement for use on paper, comprising
a hexagonal wooden shaft with a central cylindrical hole, order Diarex online overnight delivery no prescription, Diarex tablets,
graphite filling the central cylindrical hole in the hexagonal wooden shaft, and
an erasor on one end of the hexagonal wooden shaft.
The Preamble
In this example, Diarex from canadian pharmacy, Buy cheap Diarex no rx, the preamble is "A writing implement for use on paper". This is an introduction and the content is generally not essential. It is best used to frame the invention in an Examiner's mind. This preamble could have been "A writing implement" or even just "an apparatus." It generally does not affect whether an application is found to be patentable or whether a patent is found to be infringed.
The Transitional Phrase
The transitional phrase in the example claim is "comprising." It transitions between the preamble and the body of the claim and affects everything that comes after it. By far the most commonly used transitional phrase is "comprising, Diarex in mexico, Buy Diarex without prescription, " which means, essentially, buy Diarex online cod, Diarex overseas, "including." In other words, the claimed invention must have the things in the body of the claim, Diarex in canada, Purchase Diarex, but it is not limited to those things- it can also have additional unlisted elements.
So in the example, where can i buy cheapest Diarex online, Order Diarex from United States pharmacy, the invention is ANY writing implement that has a shaft with graphite in its cylindrical hole and an eraser on one end. It doesn't matter what else the writing implement has- it still falls under the claim. Even if the writing implement is also magical and dances and casts spells, it still is encompassed by the claim, ordering Diarex online. Diarex discount, This is known as "open-ended" claim language. The reason "comprising" is used instead of a more accessible word like "including" is that it has been interpreted consistently by courts for many years, leaving no ambiguity as to its meaning, Diarex in uk. Buy Diarex Without Prescription, In contrast, the transitional phrase "consisting of" is close-ended claim language and limits the claimed invention to exactly the elements listed in its body- no more, no less. Buy Diarex from mexico, The Body
The body is the "meat" of the claim. It teaches all the elements that must be present to make up the invention. Each claim is examined on its own for patentability, Diarex prices, Online buy Diarex without a prescription, so each claim must contain elements that satisfy the requirements of patentability, including novelty and nonobviousness. The goal of an inventor should be to make the claims as broad as possible while still including all the elements necessary to make it patentable, real brand Diarex online. Diarex in india, Claim Scope
Take a look at the example claim. Are there ways in which it is unnecessarily restrictive. Does it contain more than is needed for the claimed invention to be patentable, free Diarex samples. Of course, pencils have already been invented, so this claim would not, in the present day, meet the requirements for patentability at all. Additional (novel and nonobvious) elements would have to be added to the claim for it to be patentable- the claim would have to be made narrower in scope, Buy Diarex Without Prescription. Diarex to buy, But let's pretend it's 100 AD and pencils have not been invented. No problem with novelty or nonobviousness. Is the claim as broad as it could be? Probably not. Why does the shaft have to be hexagonal? A cylindrical or triangular shaft would probably work too, so why exclude them? Note that with the original example claim, Diarex pills, Diarex craiglist, a pencil with a triangular shaft would not fall under the claim and would not infringe a patent that issued with only that claim, because it would not contain a hexagonal shaft, buy Diarex online with no prescription. Buy generic Diarex, So to improve the claim, we might just remove the word "hexagonal, sale Diarex, Order Diarex from United States pharmacy, " since the patentability of the claim will not turn on the shape of the shaft.
But, buy Diarex without a prescription, Diarex medication, what if you're not the first person to invent a pencil-like writing instrument? What if other people are inventing new types of writing implements every day and there is no way for you to even be sure what others have invented before you (a sitaution more like the modern day). Maybe some crude pencils have been invented, where can i order Diarex without prescription, Diarex paypal, and maybe even some pencils that are very similar to yours except that they have round shafts. You're not sure whether they have, but you think your hexagonal design is superior to a cylindrical shaft design because it gives a better grip. Should you include "hexagonal" or not? It may be vital to patentability, Diarex price, coupon, Diarex for sale, or it may not be necessary. You don't want to limit yourself to hexagonal shafts if you don't have to. Buy Diarex Without Prescription, The solution is to write two claims. The first one reads just like the example claim, except the word "hexagonal" is removed. The second one reads as follows:
2. The writing implement of claim 1, wherein the wooden shaft is hexagonal.
This is called a "dependent" claim, because it "depends" from claim 1- it requires all the elements of claim 1. But, it also adds an additional element- that the shaft must be hexagonal. This covers you both ways. If no one has invented a round-shafted pencil and you don't need "hexagonal" to get a patent, you have a claim without it, the Examiner will allow both claims, and your patent will cover pencils with all differently shaped shafts. But what if someone else did invent a pencil just like yours, but with a round shaft, and filed a patent application for it.
Well, Diarex in mexico, Free Diarex samples, the Examiner may find this round-pencil invention in his or her search, but not find any hexagonal pencils. Then, Diarex prices, Diarex to buy online, the Examiner would reject claim 1 as lacking novelty or being obvious, in light of the round pencil. But the Examiner would allow claim 2. Although you can amend your claims during prosecution, Diarex in india, Diarex buy, if you had not originally included claim 2, the Examiner would not have searched for a hexagonal pencil. After claim 1 was rejected, where can i find Diarex online, Next day Diarex, you still would not know if a claim like claim 2 would be allowed.
Claim 2 is even more important to have if the Examiner does not find the round-pencil invention. What happens when a big company steals your pencil idea and sells exact copies of your hexagonal pencils, purchase Diarex. Real brand Diarex online, You sue, but the company raises the issue of this earlier invention that it has found (after spending big bucks on a thorough search). This earlier invention invalidates your claim 1. Fortunately for you, Diarex from international pharmacy, Buy cheap Diarex no rx, you have claim 2, which is not invalidated, purchase Diarex online no prescription, Saturday delivery Diarex, and which is also infringed. So you can still win your lawsuit and collect damages, thank to the inclusion of claim 2, Diarex san diego. Diarex trusted pharmacy reviews, That is why most applications are drafted with one or more "independent" claims that include the minimum possible subject matter that may be patentable. Then they include a series of "dependent" claims, each of which adds more and more elements, buy Diarex online without prescription, Diarex tablets, narrowing the scope of each claim, but increasing the probability of patentability. Here is an example:
3. The writing implement of claim 1, wherein the erasor is made of a rubber compound.
4. The writing implement of claim 3, wherein the erasor is made of india rubber.
5. The writing implement of claim 4, further comprising a sleeve that attaches the erasor to the wooden shaft.
6. The writing implement of claim 5, wherein the sleeve partially surrounds the erasor and an end of the wooden shaft.
7. The writing implement of claim 6, wherein the sleeve is made of metal.
8. The writing implement of claim 7, wherein the sleeve is corrugated.
Etc., etc. Each claim in this set is narrower than the one before it, because it requires the elements of the claim before it and some additional element, Buy Diarex Without Prescription. However, each claim is also more likely to be patentable, if these added elements are not well known.
There is a lot more to claim drafting than this. Only by attending classes both in law school and afterwards, and by working on hundreds of applications, did your patent attorney gain a solid understanding of the best way to draft claims to protect an invention. But understanding the basics, as taught in this post, should make it much easier to understand and evaluate the work your patent attorney does and to help and advise him or her. If you have any questions or think there is anything I could add that would be helpful, please let me know in the comments.

Pattathu Yaanai deals with the story of youths who start a catering business. Vishal and Santhanam moves to Trichy and plan to start a hotel with their group, where they will be forced to meet the requirements of police on one side and a local goon on the other side.
This situation leads Vishal to lock horns with a city don. The pace of the movie is slow in the second half. It changes only with Sanathanam's comedy.
Film's first half is all about Vishal's conflicts with the local goon and his ability to tackle it forms the second half. The female lead Aishwarya Arjun, daughter of Action King Arjun Sarja, makes her debut with this movie.
Continue reading the story on slides...
Vishal and Santhanam moves to Trichy along with their group and plans to start a hotel. They will be hurdled by police and local goon. And finally Vishal, tackle the situation in the second half.
Vishal's Performance
Vishal is perfect in his acts as a hero only in handling the situation. But he failed to prove Thimiru fame.
Aishwarya's Performance
Aishwarya Arjun, who is making her debut with this movie, has nothing much to do. She is just an acting doll. Aishwarya and Vishal's love scenes are like unnecessarily included in the movie.
Director Bhoopathy Pandian is back with his earlier action comedy themes with the movie. It seems, he has promised Vishal to take him to Trichy in all his movies. The duo's earlier movie Malaikottai was also shot in the same city.
Supporting Role
Santhanam, Jegan and John Vijay have supported the movie with their comedy acts. The movie is saved by Santhanam's comedy, especially in the second half.
Action And Stunts
The new Villain John Vijay tried to portray himself as a comic villain. Three fights in the movie composed by Anal Arasu have failed to prove Vishal as an action star.
With the current trend, Pattathu Yaanai can be included in the commercial entertainer list. The movie starts with Santhanam and ends with Santhanam. He has emerged as the movie saviour in every manner.

NDOW: Black bear euthanized due to public safety threat
August 9, 2013
A 3-year-old male black bear trapped Sunday in the Glenbrook area was euthanized Monday morning as a threat to public safety by the Nevada Department of Wildlife.
"This was the second time since late June that we have handled this bear and, based on its lack of fear of humans and the fact that it continues to be too comfortable around humans, we made the decision to euthanize it," NDOW biologist Carl Lackey stated in a press release.
NDOW game wardens first captured the bear June 24 in the Glenbrook area after receiving reports of a bear attempting to break into homes. Since it could not be confirmed that this was the bear doing the damage, it was released June 25 after being fitted with an identifying ear tag in the mountains above Lake Tahoe.
On June 28, the same bear was photographed by a homeowner in the Galena area, where the bear was suspected in multiple property damage incidents.
"One person in that Galena neighborhood tried to shoo the bear away from his house but the bear actually tried to follow him during this encounter," Lackey stated. "This kind of behavior shows a level of habituation to humans that can be very dangerous."
NDOW spokesman Chris Healy said the decision to euthanize the bear was based on its behavior, not the fact that it had previously been handled twice. When biologists handle bears, they put a yellow tag on its ear, which indicates it may have been tagged just for research, he said. When game wardens handle a bear, they put a pink tag on its ear, which indicates it tends to be a bear that could be considered habitual because of where it travels. This particular bear had a pink tag on its ear, he said.
"Part of what caused some big concerns for us was the pattern of travel for this bear," NDOW spokesman Chris Healy said Monday. "The fact that it was handled twice, but because displaying this kind of behavior, doesn't merit a third strike."
The Glenbrook area started seeing increased bear activity in mid-July with property damage reports leading to the setting of traps in the area. The bear that was euthanized was caught in a trap on Sunday and it fit the description of a bear in the area that was displaying "no fear of humans," Lackey stated.
The bear had been reported as the one that had broken into an outbuilding and was implicated in the death of a goat. The goat was killed in the past few days, Healy said. The recent incidents are what prompted NDOW to set a trap to catch this particular bear. The number on the bear's ear tag allowed NDOW to confirm it was the same bear involved in the incidents in June.
"The decision was made not because it killed a goat, but because it was displaying too much familiarity with humans, plus being aggressive and going into outbuildings and trying to break into homes," he said. "All of that together paints a picture of bear already way too familiar with humans," Healy said. "It has proven it's willing to, no matter where it was put, seek out humans as sources of food."
Ann Bryant of the Homewood-based BEAR League said the bruin did nothing wrong and was enticed by a trap set near an unsecured trash bin.
"They follow their noses, which is what any bear would do," Bryant told the Associated Press. "Now he's dead. This is exactly what we knew would happen. This is such a tragedy."
NDOW has euthanized three bears for public safety reasons this year. In January, a bear in Washoe Valley was breaking into structures and displaying bold behavior. In May, in Incline Village, a bear broke into the occupied home of a 92-year-old woman. In that same time period, 22 bears have been handled and released, many of them receiving the aversive conditioning treatment that NDOW uses to deter bears from becoming habituated to humans.
Western Nevada just experienced the hottest July in recorded history and has been in drought for the last two years. Lackey said the bears will soon dramatically increase their food consumption in an effort to put on layers of fat in preparation for hibernation in late November or early December.
"We will see more and more bears searching for food," he stated. "It is the responsibility of people living in bear country to not attract the bears by poorly handling garbage or leaving other attractants like bird and pet food available."

Ministerial Conference for WSIS Next Month in Romania
an action plan for the information society is the goal of the Pan-European
Ministerial Conference for the World Summit on the Information Society
(WSIS) next month in Bucharest, Romania. A UNESCO conference in
Germany earlier this year already made far reaching recommendations
for strengthening Europe's position in the WSIS process.
Bucharest Conference will gather from 7 to 9 November 2002, representatives
of governments, international organizations, private sector and
civil society. Focussing on the European region, it will keep balance
between regional specificity and global issues say the organizers.
Bucharest Conference should be an opportunity for presenting national
strategies but also to develop a platform for dialogue at European
level on a wide range of topics such as e-government, building partnerships
or the conditions of a fruitful dialogue among governments, business
sector and civil society. The meeting is expected to prepare reports
and proposals on the thematic debates of the first WSIS meeting
in Geneva, Switzerland, in December 2003.
of the UNESCO European WSIS Pre-Conference that was held from 26
to 27 June 2002 in Mainz, Germany, said that the evolution of the
information society should be embedded in the concept of sustainable
development. In their final declaration, the 150 participants from
48 European countries declared in Mainz that ensuring access to
information and communication resources for all, at any time, from
everywhere, and under fair conditions is one of the main challenges
for the information society.
success of WSIS will highly depend on agreements on common principles
that are to guide the construction of the information society, particularly
under the perspective of the ongoing globalization of information
and communication networks and services, the experts stated in Mainz.
They also recognized the heterogeneous interests, which influence
the development of the information society, and the diversity of
the underlying cultures and values of the different societies involved.
Europe Region with its long tradition of recognizing and balancing
the interests of different cultures and languages and with its network
of National Commissions for UNESCO can contribute to responding
to the global challenge of bridging the digital divide through taking
positive actions to create opportunities for the "information
poor" said the participants. They also stressed the special
role that UNESCO should play in the WSIS preparation process, particularly
as regards to the content aspect.
Bucharest, UNDP's Infodev Conference Scholarship Fund will finance
participation of participants for a total amount of US$ 25,000 .
This initiative is aimed at allowing the participation of all key
actors of Eastern European Countries in the Bucharest Conference.

IMO, TMG's design allows for lengthy transcriptions, either as exhibits or as
memos. In your case, I suggest you move the transcription to a separate event. A
custom event type would provide the flexibility to include the transcription in
the report or not, based on the inclusion or exclusion of the event type.
Putting the transcription in a separate event would give you placement of the
citation references that you want. The only other choice is embedded citations,
which allow you to choose where the citation references appear, but IMO they are
more difficult to define and use than regular citations.
If I was going to add anything new to TMG, it wouldn't be a [T] (transcription)
variable; I'd suggest a [:CITELOCATION:] code (with a shorter name) which would
control the location of the citation references. As I see it, what you want is
the ability to control the placement of the citation references, and the fact
that you want to do it because of a lengthy transcription is not the important
part of the request. Someone else might want to control the location for another
reason, for example, to allow for the placement of [:CR:] codes at the end of a
memo or sentence to cause a new paragraph after a tag but without moving the
citation references away from the sentence to which they apply.
Just my two cents...

Boating and TVPosted by lcaliri on September 20, 2007
Every time I see a TV show that includes positive scenes or references to people having fun in RV's I grit my teeth! Why aren't we seeing more references to boating on TV, I always vocally complain? Well, it appears it's time for me to shut up — boating is hitting the tube is a positive way – and we need to pause and acknowledge it.
For example, the popular host of NBC's Today Show, Matt Lauer , recently revealed he'd purchased a new Boston Whaler 19' and extolled the qualities of the boating lifestyle. As reported in NMMA's Currents, Lauer, talking about his summer activities, said: "After years of resisting, I finally relented and my family and I got a boat. Not a big boat. It's definitely a beginner boat. I thought it was going to be a time-consuming nightmare to have a boat, but it turned out to be the home run of the summer! We got an enormous amount of use for it. We went on picnics, went tubing, fishing, just had a lot of fun with it," he added.
Let's face it, our industry's national Discover Boating campaign couldn't cast a more favorable image than that reflected in Lauer's comments. He further shared his enthusiasm this way: "I can only hope that my son will be on a boat with his child someday, passing the passion along again. And I pray I'll be with them on that boat, too."
Boating was also the central subject of "My Boys," another popular TV prime time comedy show. It aired Sept. 11 on TBS. One of the show's main characters, Andy Franklin, announced he'd just bought a boat. He invites all his friends to join him for the official chistening and the action moves to dockside in a sunny, boat-filled Chicago harbor where Andy's friends participate in the excitement of boating.
What's the importance of all this TV exposure? It's one more slice that will contribute to the long-term positive impact of our Grow Boating initiative and we should always take time to recognize these successes when we experience them. For a lot more updates you should be regularly checking in at www.growboating.org.

Deutsche Telekom aims to return to rising subscriber numbers and earnings growth at its T-Mobile USA unit after a deal to sell it for $39 billion to AT&T fell through, the company's chief said on Thursday. Chief Executive Rene Obermann said the company expects to invest around $4 billion, or an additional $1.4 billion in its U.S. networks in the coming two years.
He added he expected T-Mobile USA's 2012 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding special items to decline to around $4.8 billion from $5.3 billion last year. Revenue at T-Mobile USA dropped by 3.3% to $20.6 billion in 2011.
Deutsche Telekom (Bonn, Germany) as a whole posted a fourth-quarter net loss of $1.7 billion as accounting charges on its activities in the United States and Greece failed to offset a cash payment for the collapsed T-Mobile USA deal. Analysts were looking for a fourth-quarter net profit of $1.3 billion.
Deutsche Telekom stuck to its dividend policy and proposed a stable dividend of $0.93 per share.
"Goodwill impairment in the United States and impairments on goodwill and property, plant, and equipment in Southeastern Europe, notably Greece, of approximately 3.3 billion euros ... had a negative impact on unadjusted net profit," the company said in a statement. The impairment charges failed to offset a $3 billion cash payment from AT&T (Dallas, Texas, USA) as part of a $6 billion breakup package after the U.S. peer walked away from a $39 billion deal to buy T-Mobile USA.
By proposing an unchanged payout to investors, Deutsche Telekom bucked the trend at other European telecom operators, who have struggled to find growth amid intense regulatory pressure and tough price competition. On Wednesday, France Telecom (Paris) cut its dividends and put off a promised share buyback. Spain's Telefonica (Madrid, Spain) trimmed dividends in December and is focusing on paying down debt, while Dutch operator KPN (The Hague, Netherlands) slashed its returns to shareholders via buybacks.
Deutsche Telekom said it expects 2012 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding special items to reach around $23.9 billion with a free cash flow of about $7.9 billion.

Sony VPL-VW95ES Projector Review
On this page we take a look at the VPL-VW95ES projector's brightness, sharpness, and image noise. We'll discuss brightness in conjunction with 3D usage, as well. Also considered here are the physical attributes of light leakage and audible noise.
Sony VPL-VW95ES Brightness
|VPL-VW1000ES Lumen Output and Color Temp at 100 IRE (mid zoom)
|859 @ 10495, 954 lumens @ 8508 with Color Temp on Custom 5
|804 @ 8824
|Cinema 1
|718 @ 6908
|Cinema 2
|646 @ 5719
|Cinema 3
|722 @ 6917
|721 @ 6923
|523 @ 5663
|User 1
|723 @ 6923
|User 2
|715 @ 6921
Sony rates the VPL-VW95ES projector as a 1000 lumen projector. As it turns out, they are right. Mike's highest measurement was 1031 lumens. The next few screens will deal with pre-calibration information, including photos of how each of the modes look. Further down you'll find the post calibration information including the measured brightness for D65 and for an improved "brightest mode". This is how it plays out:
First are the lumen measurements for each of the preset and user modes. Also included was the measured color temp for white, for each mode.
Cinema 3 was the best looking image before Mike calibrated. All measurements were all taken with the zoom set to mid-point unless noted.
All the images above were taken with the same exposure so you can get a hint at the relative differences.
The last two are post calibration. First below, is User 1, the result of Mike sacrificing a limited amount of lumens to improve the overall color of the brightest mode. And below it, User 2, which is the D65 calibrated Cinema 3.
Above, note that User 1 is actually a touch brighter than the default Dynamic mode (above it), but without the very cool (too blue) whites. It shows that you don't have to choose when you need brightness between something nicely calibrated, and something way off.
Below – D65 calibrated. You'll see the numbers below. Very tight -Believe me, any color shifts you see in the posted images, aren't the fault of the Sony.
|Effect of zoom on lumen output (Dynamic mode)
|Zoom out
|928, (1031 using Custom 5 Color Temp)
|Zoom in
That translates into a roughly 25% drop in brightness going from the closest placement to the furthest placement allowed by the 1.6:1 zoom lens. Closest position is only about 8% brighter than mid-point, while furthest position is almost 20% less bright than mid-point.
Lumen Output (Low Lamp, Dynamic mode): 497
That works out to a surpisingly large drop of 42%. Most projectors drop 20 – 30% when switched into low lamp mode.
Below: sample color temperature snapshot, pre-calibration – not quite as good as last year's projector, as default is a bit too cool.
|Color Temp over IRE Range (Best Mode, Pre calibration): Cinema 3
|Effect of Iris settings on lumen output (Reference mode)
|Iris on Manual (maximum opening)
|Iris on Manual (50% open)
|Iris on Manual (minimum opening)
|Iris Off or on Auto 1 or 2
Interestingly, the various iris settings of the Sony projector do affect measured output. For example, the projector is almost 10% brighter with the iris turned off or on Auto modes (dynamic) than when in manual use:
As you can see, in manual mode, the maximum you can close it down is 50% in terms of brightness.
That should give you a pretty good idea of the relevant settings and how they affect the projector's picture.

RAMALLAH, West Bank — Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president, refused Tuesday to publicly commit to restarting suspended talks with Israel, frustrating Bush administration officials who contended that he was giving Hamas, the militant Islamist organization, a tactical victory by allowing it to hijack Arab-Israeli peace negotiations.
After a meeting with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Mr. Abbas did not say that he would never return to talks. He just refused to say when, and seemed to relish a new role of standing up to the United States and Israel.

Distribution of Crater Clusters on Mars
N. G. Barlow (Univ. Central Florida)
Crater clusters are defined as groups of small craters, generally consisting of 10 or more craters less than 1- to 2-km-diameter, which overlap and thus are presumed to have formed simultaneously. Traditionally, crater clusters have been interpreted as secondary craters from large impacts, but Magellan imagery revealed crater clusters on Venus formed by a different mechanism. On Venus, impacts generally less than about 15-km-diameter are not single craters but clusters of smaller craters, produced when the meteoroid broke up during passage through the thick venusian atmosphere. On Mars, a large number of crater clusters exist, not all of which are readily identified with a primary impact crater. In 1994, Hartmann and colleagues proposed that such isolated crater clusters on Mars may result from the breakup of weak cometary bodies as they passed through either the current thin atmosphere or through a previous thicker atmosphere (Hartmann et al., 1994, BAAS, 26, pg. 116).
We have undertaken a study to determine the distribution of crater
clusters across the martian surface. The study is identifying which
crater clusters are secondaries from larger impacts and which are
isolated from such impacts. For the isolated crater clusters we are
estimating their time of formation to determine if any consistency
among formation ages can be found. This study will determine if crater
clusters can be used as indicators of climatic change during recent
epochs on Mars.

The railway went only as far west as Maple Creek in Saskatchewan: You could drive a horse and buggy from there to Alberta's Fort Macleod, but beyond that you were on your own. The territory, as Katharine Martyn points out in her excellent monograph, J. B. Tyrrell: Explorer and Adventurer, was still wild enough that Tyrrell had to stay up to guard his horses at night.
"The whole country was a vast solitude and one could travel for weeks at a time without seeing any white man or in fact any human being," Tyrrell wrote years later in the journal Science.
Like most people today (and like many Victorians), he was obsessed with new technology: He owned an early Hawkeye camera that used newfangled rolls of film in place of glass plates, and was the founder of the Ottawa Microscopical Society. At tobogganing parties and dances at Rideau Hall during the Ottawa winters, when he wasn't writing up reports of his summer surveys, Tyrrell slipped a pedometer into his pocket and discovered that he had danced 21 miles in the course of an evening.
Tyrrell was looking for ways to make money from the land, but to him money wasn't the land's only significance. His survey reports from Western Canada are models of digression, as likely to reflect on the earlier travels of David Thompson or describe the remains of a Hudson's Bay Company trading post he wandered across as they are to map geological synclines.
He even tried to learn the Stoney and Cree languages. (Wouldn't it be thrilling today if the Gateway commissioners tried to learn some of the Northern Wakashan languages spoken along the B.C. shore?)
But his most famous expedition nearly killed him. In 1893, the surveyor and five companions travelled by canoe from northern Alberta to Hudson Bay. On May 26, the non-stop-note-taking Tyrrell wrote in his field journal, "I drove from Edmonton to Egg Lake with a man named Lyons to inspect a bed of Tar Sand said to have been found there."
Five days later, on May 31, the party set off in two 18-foot, cedar-strip Peterborough canoes on the first leg of their journey – a 470-mile paddle up the Athabasca River to Fort Chipewyan. That took two weeks.
To help with the paddling, Tyrrell had hired three Iroquois from the Kahnawake reserve near Lachine, Que. – one of them, Pierre Louis, liked to run the roiling local rapids in a solo canoe on Christmas Day for fun.
Armed with his latest Hawkeye camera (also in the Fisher collection, as is its walnut film loader), the party shot the first-ever photographs of the Barren Lands Inuit. Then they shot 60 caribou, with guns. "The coast was a forest of antlers," Tyrrell noted.
But the territory was so unknown – even more unknown than the proposed Gateway corridor is to most Canadians today – that Tyrrell landed hundreds of miles north of where he wanted to be on Hudson Bay.
Winter descended sharply in mid-September. Beset by dysentery and close to starvation, the group was finally rescued by dog team 29 miles north of Churchill in Manitoba. They had travelled more than 900 miles.
But even that nightmare couldn't make Tyrrell sit still. He returned to the Barren Lands the following summer to chart the Kazan River, where he again got lost, and again feared the river was going to empty him into the Arctic Ocean as winter arrived.
Fortunately, halfway there, Tyrrell's party ran into Ahyout, an Inuit chief, and Kakkuk, his son. They helped Tyrrell make the maps the Fisher library now owns. The natives were living in a camp of seven skin tents with 42 members of their family.
Ahyout's map convinced Tyrrell that continuing up the Kazan was suicide. Kakkuk's showed him an uncharted alternative river that would flush the explorers into Hudson Bay closer to Churchill.
Thanks to the new maps and route, Tyrrell was home by October, having travelled 2,900 miles in 6½ months, 1,750 of them by canoe. Tyrrell rewarded his Inuit guides with the most valuable commodities he could offer: tobacco, field glasses, a rifle, ammunition and his respect.Report Typo/Error

KIYAN SOBHANI: Can the New York Knicks obtain Carmelo Anthony without giving up an important piece? The answer is yes. No matter who you ship off on the Knicks roster (besides Amar'e) for Melo you're significantly improving that team. Randolph never really was that impressive for the Knicks. If the Knicks can get Melo playing alongside Amar'e and Felton they instantly become a contender. What a swing that would be. Especially if Chris Paul tagged along too and formed the next 'big 3′ in the league – something that's beginning to become a trend ever since Garnett and Ray Allen formed one in Bean Town.
If Melo choses the Nets, I think he'll get more critics than Chris Bosh and Lebron James did when they chose to reunite with Dwayne Wade in Miami. There is nothing awaiting Melo in Jersey except for Jay-Z and Tomatoes. He has much more in store for him in Denver.
As of now though, it's all speculation. We may see him ride out his contract with the Nuggets.
MIKE SILVA: Although the thought of pairing Amar'e Stoudemire with Carmelo Anthony is enticing, it can't be done at the expense of gutting the roster. After ten years of a rudderless ship, the Knicks appear to be headed in the right direction with a young roster full of intriguing upside. That is why I am a proponent of Donnie Walsh monitoring the Carmelo Anthony sweepstakes, but not trading either Danilo Gallinari or Anthony Randolph. In my opinion the waiting game works in the Knicks favor.
If Denver was serious about trading Anthony to New Jersey I believe they would have found a way to make the complicated four team trade work. It's also hard to imagine teams trading for Melo without an extension attached to the deal. Anthony already has indicated that money won't force him to accept a deal to an undesirable location. I grew up in Brooklyn and lived in the borough for 26 years. There is no way basketball on Atlantic Avenue will trump 2 Penn Plaza. Anthony going to New Jersey/Brooklyn is the equivalent of a star actor headlining off Broadway: it just isn't the same.
Bottom line: I believe that Carmelo Anthony wants the Knicks, and the Knicks want Carmelo Anthony. If he does get traded it will be around the deadline, but more likely will sign as a free agent in the offseason. At that time Denver will be forced to accept a sign and trade, or risk losing him for nothing. Both scenarios should put the Knicks in a desirable position.
With Anthony you have a Knicks team with two stars (Stoudemire/Anthony), up and coming youngsters (Gallinari/Randolph/Mozgov), and complementary talent like Raymond Felton. That is a team to be reckoned with in the Eastern Conference for years to come.

Easy 4-6-3 double play there, two out for the Dodgers in the second.
I really hope that Bad Arroyo goes away. We need Good Arroyo to get the team to win #60.
EDIT: that DP is a start!
"Ill kind of have a foot on the back of my own butt. Thats just how I do things. -- Bryan Price, 10/22/2013
Ellis grounds into a 4-6-3 DP.
Ryu flies out to left. 1-1 after 2.
LA crowd gettin' excited on pop up to shallow left...
Arroyo strikes out swinging
Watch the Dodgers sign Choo this offseason even though they have 4 starting outfielders already.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
I hate that stupid sound effect the dodgers play for a strikeout.
Choo grounds out to 1st.
Choo hit that one like a coach hitting for infield practice
If evolution is outlawed, only outlaws will evolve!
During Kemp's huge year my wife and I were about 5 rows back in RCF and Kemp hit a HR very near us.....when we got home we watched the replay and as the camera went to where the ball was likely going....I was the only person standing up, and then everyone else followed.
...but the crowd is awful in LA at that

text: A co-worker of mine found a YouTube video with the robotic performers from one of my favorite childhood places, Showbiz Pizza. I celebrated several birthdays at Showbiz and I was sad to see it change into Chuck E Cheese. I actually enjoyed watching the robots perform, but also loved getting all the promotional toys as well. What goes around always comes back around, and it seems promotional toys are reverting back to the classics with yo-yo's and Rubik's cubes. Even though I won't be able to take my nieces or nephews to Showbiz Pizza, technology has provided a way for me to see a little nostalgia via the internet videos. So long Billy Bob.

Bananas and Walnuts:
Two Essential Foods
After Weight Loss Surgery
by Kaye Bailey
Nutritional deficiency is a serious concern for people who have undergone gastric bypass or lap-band weight loss surgery. Most patients are instructed to supplement their low-calorie diet with vitamin and mineral supplements. In addition, patients can make informed food choices to boost their nurtrient intake while respecting the restrictions of weight loss surgery.
Two foods patients should include in their diet are bananas and walnuts. Here's why:
Bananas are rich in potassium, an essential mineral for maintaining heart function and blood pressure.
Bananas help activate the stomach lining cells protecting against ulcers and acting as an antacid.
Bananas are effective in normalizing movement through the digestive tract and ease constipation.
Bananas contain a compound that nourishes the friendly bacteria in the colon and helps the body absorb calcium
Bananas are available year round at low cost.
Nutrition per 1 medium banana:
Calories: 108
Protein: 1.3 grams
Carbohydrates: 27 grams
Natural Sugar: 14.4 grams
Fiber 3.1 grams
Daily Values:
Vitamin B: 35%
Vitamin C: 18%
Potassium: 13%
Walnuts contain omega-3 essential fatty acids, a special type of protective fat the body cannot manufacture.
The omega-3 fats can improve cardiovascular health, promote better cognitive function and work as anti-inflammatory agents against asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, eczema and psoriasis.
Walnuts contain an antioxidant compound called ellagic acid which supports the immune system and has several anticancer properties.
Nutrition per 1 tablespoon of dry raw walnuts:
Calories: 175
Fat: 16.7 (1 gram saturated)
Protein: 6.8 grams
Carbohydrate: 2.8 grams
Fiber 1.9 grams
Daily Values:
Omega 3 fatty acids: 90.8%
Manganese: 42.5%
Copper: 20%
Tryptophan: 15%
One way patients can get a reasonable serving of bananas and walnuts is in a WLS safe Banana-Walnut Bread. Try this recipe: Banana-Walnut Bread

When Richard Riordan was elected Mayor of Los Angeles, he let it be known that department heads would not be expected to follow "every inefficient procedural safeguard." Then in a move that facilitated rule violations, Riordan handcuffed the Board of Civil Service Commissioners.
Under Riordan's "new Paradigm," the following regulations are not always taken seriously. To be perfectly blunt, certain regulations are purposely violated.
1.) Civil Service Rule 1.26: "PROBATIONARY PERIOD means the working test period during which an employee is required to demonstrate his/her fitness by the actual performance of the duties and responsibilities of his/her position and during which he/she may be terminated without right of appeal to the Board of Civil Service Commissioners."
2.) Charter 242(b). "…The duty of the Council and its committees is to become fully informed of the business of the City so as to oversee all the functions of the City government and to report to the Council any information or recommendations necessary to enable the Council to properly legislate…"
3.) Charter Sections 509(b) and 510(c). In most City departments, the Chief Administrative Officer "…shall appoint, discharge, suspend or transfer employees subject to the civil service provisions of the Charter."
4.) Charter Section 540. "The Personnel Department shall have the power and duty to administer the civil service system in accordance with the civil service provisions of Article X of the Charter and the civil service rules…"
5.) Charter Section 541. "The Board of Civil Service Commissioners shall have the power and duty to make and enforce the civil service rules and to establish and maintain the civil service system in accordance with Article X of the Charter."
6.) Charter Section 1019(a): Investigation—"The Board shall investigate the enforcement of the civil service provisions of this Article and the civil service rules. All officers of the City shall aid the Board in all proper ways in carrying out the civil service provisions of this Article."
Obviously, such lawlessness must end. If you agree with me, you may want to contact Mayor Villaraigosa at (213) 978-0600, or by E-mail at email@example.com.
You're your questions and comments to email@example.com.

A friend is experiencing terrifying side effects from perkiness drinks. is it the caffine or sugar that cause it?
His symptoms are as follows:
blacking out
trouble sleeping
I'm sure there are more but those are the big ones he mentioned. What could be wrong with him? He drinks a lot of enery drinks and I know thats what is cause all this but I was wondering if there is any specific disorder cause by drinking the energy drinks that is giving him these side effects. Thanks!
Most likely it is a combination of both.
It is most predictable a combination of both the caffeine and the sugar. They both give you a temporary boost of energy. Once they wear out you experience side effects close to those listed above.
I am no doctor but I would suggest to your friend to stop drinking the Monster or Red Bull or AMP'd drinks. Instead, look into a drink called Efusjon. It was in fact suggested by a doctor as the most nutritious and antioxidant rich energy drinks. The link to that video is here:
If your friend does become interested in this decent alternative tell him to visit http://www.buyenfusjon.com. They also offer to repay you for drinking their energy drinks. AWESOME! Best of luck to your friend : ) Source(s): http://www.buyenfusjon.com
Some energy drinks contain as much caffeine as contained by 10 coffees. He is showing symptoms of Caffeine overdose. Your friend needs to stop taking the energy drinks before he drinks himself into cardiac fiasco.
If you see him with one, take and dump it for his own good.
Definitely a combination of both.
I suggest the fit energy drink, MonaVie.
MonaVie EMV features a proprietary blend of antioxidant rich fruits, including the superfruit acai, and natural sources of energy. Formulated for everyday spirit needs, this healthy drink increases performance and concentration by kicking up your force level and keeping it there-without a subsequent crash.
acarrasco13(a)cox.net, MonaVie Distributortion of both. Source(s): www.monavie.com
Some of both. The caffeine is an appetite suppressant but when it wears off he will be totally hungry. But aside from the symptoms there is not much serious damage causes by too much caffeine except anxiety attacks and absence of sleep. Voltaire, the famous author, drank 50-70 cups of esspresso a day. If he wants to stop though, he will enjoy to cut back slowly because caffeine withdrawal caused severe headache like a migraine and it can be very dibilitating. More than two energy drinks a sunshine is prob not good for you since poor sleep can affect your mental well being.
Sounds like dehydration, chill out on those energy drinks and just drink plently of wayer for a polite week or so.
The only bearing caffeine could cause that is if it was person consumed in truckloads, not an exaggeration, truckloads. The real problem is drugs, a heart condition, or a brain problem. Go to a doctor, get a drug tryout. Sugar wouldn't effect him negatively.

Zecuity Tied to Serious Burns and Scarring
Teva Pharmaceutical's Zecuity (Sumatriptan Iontophoretic Transdermal System) Tied to Serious Burns, Scarring, Say Federal Regulators
Zecuity (sumatriptan iontophoretic transdermal system) is a transdermal, battery-operated medication used to treat acute migraines. In June 2016, federal regulators reported that "a large number of patients" have reported suffering severe burns and scars following use of the migraine headache patch, Zecuity, sold by Teva Pharmaceuticals. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also indicated that the Teva Headache Patch's safety will be undergoing new scrutiny.
If you have been treated with Zecuity and experienced a serious adverse health event, such as skin burn or scarring, the attorneys at Parker Waichman would like to hear from you.
What is Zecuity?
Teva's Zecuity received approval in 2013; the patch was launched in September in the United States, according to Law360. Zecuity is worn on the upper arm or thigh for up to four hours, delivering sumatriptan, a broadly prescribed medication used for the treatment of acute migraines. Sumatriptan has been on the market for 25 years.
Zecuity's main selling point is that it delivers sumatriptan into the patient's bloodstream more rapidly than pills, as the gastrointestinal tract is not involved.
Reports of Serious Skin Reactions Tied to Zecuity
The FDA is investigating the risk of serious burns, as well as the potential for permanent scarring with the use of the Zecuity patch. Since its release to the market, the Zecuity patch has been associated with a mounting number of reports from patients over burns or scars on the skin at the location where the patch was worn. Patients have also described more severe adverse reactions outlined in an FDA "Safety Communication" that also indicated the agency is reviewing reports of "serious burns and potential permanent scarring" tied to Zecuity, wrote Law360. Injury reports included:
- Blistering
- Cracked Skin
- Pain
- Severe skin redness
- Skin discoloration
FDA officials noted, "As a result, we are investigating these serious adverse events to determine whether future regulatory action is needed" and wrote that patients should "immediately remove" Zecuity and contact their physician should they experience moderate to severe pain at the Zecuity application site, no matter how long the Zecuity has been on the skin, to avoid the potential for burns or scars. A different drug or different formulation of sumatriptan should be considered, should adverse reactions occur, according to the FDA. Patients are advised against bathing, showering, or swimming while wearing the patch.
Legal Help for Individuals who Have Used Zecuity and Experienced Burning, Scarring, Severe Skin Reactions
If you used Zecuity (sumatriptan iontophoretic transdermal system) and suffered a serious side effect such as burning, scarring, and other severe skin reactions, you may have valuable legal rights. Please contact Parker Waichman at 1-800-YOURLAWYER (800-968-7529) to speak with our attorneys today.

O'Kellys Pub Quiz
Every Monday evening from 20:30
Bring your cleverest friends with you to take part in the challenge that is O'Kellys Pub Quiz, with host Chairman Moe
The Format - in a nutshell
The game consists of four rounds of ten questions. Each question answered correctly is worth two points. Round one consists of nine General Knowledge questions and one "Name That Tune" question (where a short piece of music is played and teams must guess the artist and the title of the track in order to gain points).
THE USE OF MOBILE PHONES TO DETERMINE ANSWERS IS STRONGLY FORBIDDEN - Anyone caught using a mobile phone by O'Kellys Staff will have their team disqualified and the team cannot win a prize. Google is NOT our friend.
After all questions have been read out for round one, teams have around ten minutes to write their answers onto the provided answer sheets and return them to Chairman Moe. Answers are then marked, teams awarded points and a score update read out. This is repeated for round two and three. Round four consists of a collection of ten pictures shown on the big screens throughout the pub and the teams must answer the accompanying questions.
The Winners - and the Prizes
After all answers have been read out, the scores are announced in ascending order and at the end of the evening the winning team is awarded their prize. Prizes are also awarded for fourth place and several other prizes throughout the scoreboard. It's great fun and you don't have to be Einstein to play along. You might even leave the pub knowing the largest collection of useless trivia in the country! Not only that, there are lots of great prizes to be won, and not just for the overall winners!
All questions are asked in English AND German, so plenty of opportunities to brush up on your weaker language.
Our quiz takes place every Monday night starting from 20:30 until around 23:30, so you can all catch your trams and busses home. However, we strongly suggest you come early in order to guarantee getting a table... especially if you are a big team. Arrive around 7pm - 7:30pm and you should be okay but after then, the pub quickly fills up. You have been warned!
So, get your cleverest friends to meet you at O'Kellys NEXT MONDAY well before 20:30 and play along.
