They should just be entered into; however, if a borrower possesses plenty of knowledge regarding their specific terms. Use the tips on this page, and you may know whether you've got a good deal before you, or if you're fall into a dangerous trap.
When considering a cash payday loan, eventhough it can be tempting be sure not to borrow greater than you can afford to pay back. For example, when they allow you to borrow $1000 and place your car as collateral, but you only need $200, borrowing an excessive amount of can lead to the loss of your car or truck if you are not able to repay the entire loan.
Research various payday advance companies before settling on one. There are many different companies on the market. Some of which can charge you serious premiums, and fees compared to other alternatives. In fact, some could possibly have short term specials, that really make a difference inside total cost. Do your diligence, and make certain you are getting the best selection possible.

Payday loan companies work around the laws to impose a fee the highest amount. These loans cost a certain amount (say $15 per $100 lent), that are just interest disguised as fees. As a result, a loan can accrue just as much as ten times the interest rate of the standard loan.
Beware of falling in to a trap with pay day loans. In theory, you'll pay the loan last one to two weeks, then move on with your life. In reality, however, many individuals cannot afford to the loan, and also the balance keeps allowing this to continue to their next paycheck, accumulating huge amounts of interest from the process.

If you are considering finding a payday loan, just be sure you have a prefer to get it paid off right away. The loan company will offer you to "help you" and extend your loan, folks who wants pay it off right away. This extension costs that you simply fee, plus additional interest, in order that it does nothing positive to suit your needs. However, it earns the borrowed funds company a nice profit.

Buyer's Guide: 2002 GMC Sierra Denali
Reader Ratings:
See what others have to say or add your own comments about
the GMC
Sierra Denali
about GM Trucks
One engine is available for the Sierra
OHV Vortec 6000® V8 with sequential fuel injection.
325hp @ 4000
370ft-lbs. @ 5000
One transmission exists for the Sierra Denali:
4L65-E) Four-speed automatic
(city / highway):
6.0-liter: (12/15)
GMC's terrific pickup, the Sierra C3, gets a new name and much more
for 2002.
2002 Sierra Denali features Delphi Automotive Systems revolutionary
Quadrasteer 4WS system as standard equipment on the 2002 all-wheel-drive
Extended Cab short box pickup.
conventional front-wheel hydraulic power steering in combination
with an electrically powered rear wheel steering system, Quadrasteer
adjusts rear-wheel angles, turning them opposite to the front wheels
at lower speeds and in the same direction as the front wheels at
higher speeds, for astounding maneuverability and control.
lower speeds, the Quadrasteer 4WS system reduces Sierra Denalis
curb-to-curb turning diameter by 21-percent to 37.4 feet, enabling
it to turn as tightly as a Saturn Coupe at 37.1 feet. This nimbleness
enables the Sierra Denali to slip almost effortlessly in and out
of driveways and tight parking spaces. Its improved low-speed steering
responsiveness also requires fewer steering wheel movements, increasing
driving enjoyment. At highway speeds, Quadrasteer reduces Sierra
Denalis "yaw," or rotational motion, for dramatically
improved stability. It provides safer, more confident lane changes,
passing and evasive maneuvers especially during wet or windy
increase in trailering control is equally amazing. With Quadrasteer,
Sierra Denali and its trailer move down the highway as if they were
one. Drivers can change lanes more quickly and safely with hardly
any trailer sway even at speeds of 65 mph and with an 8000-pound
Sierra Denali can jockey easily between boulders and rocks because
its rear wheels maintain the same clearance as the front wheels.
It also allows drivers to venture into places that would stop a
competitive vehicle short, such as a narrow mountain road with a
steep cliff wall and hairpin turns.
the city, Quadrasteer allows Sierra Denali to pull its trailer around
a corner, without cutting the corner in the sharp manner of trucks.
It also allows Sierra Denali to maneuver its trailer easily in tight
spaces, like a boat launching area or at a campsite, or to back
the trailer up without the normal right and left gyrations accompanying
such a maneuver.
with Quadrasteer, the Sierra Denali now has a higher capacity rear
axle and increased GVWR. A larger 9.75-inch rear ring gear is used
to increase the rear axles gross weight rating by 250-pounds
to 4000-pounds. Coupled with the extra capacity already available
in the Sierra Denalis 51-mm twin-piston caliper front and
45-mm twin-piston caliper rear brakes, the larger rear axle provides
a higher 7200-pound GVWR, 400 pounds more than the Sierra C3. This
allows Sierra Denali to provide a 1722-pound payload carrying capability,
nearly the same as before, despite a small increase in weight associated
with the Quadrasteer system. As indicated, GCWR has also increased
by 2000-pounds; coupled with a new 4.10 axle ratio, it increases
trailering capacity by 1300-pounds to 10,000-pounds (4535.1 Kg).
The exterior of the 2002 Sierra Denali changes substantially from
the 2001 Sierra C3.
wider rear track requires the use of composite 'shoulders' over
the rear wheels to keep them covered by the bed's exterior. Overall
body width has grown from 78.5-inches to 83.5-inches.
regulations stipulate the trucks over 80-inches in width also include
roof mounted marker lamps and fender mounted clearance lights so
the Denali looks almost like an athletic dually at first glance.
A new instrument panel-mounted switch is added to control the Quadrasteer
system, enabling the driver to select either Smooth Ride or Control
/ Trailering.
GM's highly capable 6.0-liter Vortec 6000 V8 is the only engine
available for Sierra Denali.

Shadow education secretary Tim Collins accused the government of stealing Tory ideas of giving schools more freedom and parents more choice.
Teachers and head teachers welcomed the growth in specialist schools.
But they are less happy with plans for more city academies, where the private sector is involved with schools.
Teachers and heads were pleased to see confirmation that schools will be given three-year budgets from 2006, allowing them greater certainty about funding.
They support the idea of extending the specialist schools scheme to all schools, because it puts all schools on an equal footing. Extra money comes with specialist status.
More autonomy
David Hart, the general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers, said the five-year plan made a lot of sense.
"We back greater independence for schools. Guaranteed three-year funding is precisely what heads need if they are going to deliver higher standards," he said.
"More autonomy, less red tape and a crackdown on both bad pupil and bad parent behaviour is exactly what heads need."
NUT general secretary Steve Sinnott said: "This five-year plan is a mixture of tried and tested schemes and a leap in the dark which could be at the children's expense.
"Parents will be faced with a confused and confusing array of schools rather than choice and diversity."
Tim Collins said there was much his party could welcome since making it easier for good schools to expand and putting choice at the heart of the drive to raise standards were all existing Conservative policies.
"Much of today's announcement is a tribute to the power of the photocopier -
the product not so much of Blair or Clarke, but of Xerox," he said.
"They will seek a mandate for a third term seeking to do the
complete opposite of what they did in their first term.
"It's not much of an election slogan: vote Labour to reverse everything that
the dreadful Labour government has been doing."
Working together
The Liberal Democrats' education spokesman Phill Willis told MPs the measures announced were indeed Conservative.
"This is Tory policy being delivered by a Labour government," he told MPs.
Secondary head teachers said academies should be encouraged to collaborate with neighbouring schools.
The general secretary of the Secondary Heads Association, John Dunford said: "The success of the academies programme must be judged not only on their own
results, but by their effect on the performance of all the local schools.
"The government must ensure that the academies' independence does not work
against the interests of other local schools."

A little reminder for you militant Christians who talk shit about your pagan origins.
Monday - Moons Day - Pagan observance of the moon
Tuesday - Tyr's Day - Norse god
Wednesday - Woden's/Odin's Day - Norse god
Thursday - Thor's Day -Norse God
Friday - Frigg's Day - Norse Goddess
Saturday - Saturn's Day - Roman God
Sunday - Sun's Day - Pagan observance of the sun
January - Dedicated to the Roman God Janus
February - Februa, Roman purification ritual
March - Dedicated to the Roman God Mars
April - Attributed to Venus and/or Aphrodite
May- Dedicated to Greek Goddess Maia
June- Dedicated to Roman Goddess Juno
July- Dedicated to Julius Ceasar, dictator of Rome
August- Dedicated to Augustus, Emperor of Rome
Christmas - Pagan celebration of Yule (Yuletide sound familiar?)
Christmas Tree- Germanic pagan ritual
Mistletoe - Norse ritual for Frigga
Wreath - Various pagan celebrations
Gathering around a christmas fire- Burning of the Yule log
Singing carols - Yuletide pagan custom
Halloween - Pagan celebration of the fall harvest
Costumes - Pagan use for hiding identity during celebrations
Thanksgiving - Multiple pagan celebrations
Hell - Hel/Helheim adaptation of Norse mythology
Your middle eastern cult merely adopted the European lifestyle. Damn near everything you do and say has some ties to paganism. Every time you celebrate some holiday like Christmas or call out a day and month you are giving remembrance to a multitude of religions that existed WAY before Christianity. If you live in Europe and even in some parts of the U.S. you live in areas that are named after pagans or pagan name in origin.
Everytime you talk shit about pagans or paganism you instantly become a walking hypocrisy because society as a whole never shed its past of paganism. Hell, even the basis of Roman/Greek/Early English law centred around the customs and views of PAGANS.
Ultimately Christianity filled in the gaps of whatever it could to blend itself into early European life. That's the only way Christianity was able to flourish while Islam, a religion that refuses to mix with other cultures, failed to take hold without conquest.
So keep talking shit. If Christianity never tried imitating pagans or pagan customs it never would've been adopted as the official Roman religion.

With the police having broken the news at the climax to Monday's episode, Ian will next be seen seeking answers as to how Lucy's death came about. "I've had many storylines over the years which have challenged me, but this one is completely different as it's a father losing his daughter very suddenly," says actor Adam Woodyatt. "It's raw and they haven't held anything back from the scripts nor have we from the performances." Viewers will also see Ian having to break the news to his nearest and dearest in scenes that are sure to bring a tear to the eye: "Ian then has the task of breaking the news to the family who, like him, are utterly devastated," continues Woodyatt.

OLYMPIA – March 22, 2011 – Less than four weeks remain to apply for tax amnesty with the Washington State Department of Revenue.
April 18 is the application deadline for this temporary opportunity to pay back taxes without penalties or interest. All back taxes must be paid by April 30.
The Washington State Legislature authorized the limited-period amnesty at the request of Governor Chris Gregoire.
"This unique opportunity allows businesses that have struggled during this difficult economic period to get caught up on their state business taxes," said Revenue Director Suzan DelBene. "It also helps the people of Washington State by generating dollars that can be used to fund essential state services."
The amnesty program allows businesses that have outstanding liability on certain taxes due prior to February 1, 2011, to pay those taxes without paying the associated penalties and interest.
So far, more than 5,000 businesses have applied for the program, generating more than $12.6 million for the state while saving themselves $4.2 million in penalties and interest.
Businesses wishing to take advantage of this program need to act soon.
"Businesses shouldn't wait until the last minute to apply," said DelBene. "If they do, and they inadvertently make a mistake on their application, they may not have time to submit a corrected application and could miss out on this opportunity."
The amnesty application and other information on qualifying can be found on the Department's website at www.PayMyTax.org.

It's the end of May, the draft has come and gone and OTAs are just starting to pick up. Naturally, the legion of NFL writers get bored. It appears the topic du jour today is the enigma that is Randy Moss. To anyone following the 49ers offseason with zero prior knowledge of Moss (no one), it would appear that he was the model veteran. The quiet leader donning the mantle of on-field coach. On the flipside, anyone looking in with preconceptions about Moss (everyone), the reaction is either cautious optimism, or hopeless pessimism waiting for the other shoe to drop.
However, if history repeats itself (and it often does) the Randy Moss we are seeing in May will likely be the Randy Moss we see all season. Since entering the league in 1998, he was the prototype for the modern day wide receiver. A giant in the redzone and a gazelle in the open field, virtually undefendable. He had the gift of making it look effortless, which ironically became the source of blemish on an otherwise Hall of Fame career. Never had anyone doubted his talent, only his effort. Following a very forgettable stint with the Oakland Raiders, Moss set out to silence his critics, worked quietly and tirelessly, and came one miracle play away from winning a Super Bowl. Fast forward to 2010 and 2011, one disastrous season and another unemployed season later, Moss is facing those critics again. Those that now doubt his talent at the age of 35 in addition to those who have always doubted his effort and character. Playing on a non-guaranteed one year contract with a Super Bowl ring within grasp, Moss is back in redemption mode much like he was in 2007, where he totaled 16 games for 1,493 yards and a whopping 23 touchdowns. No one is saying he'll reach those marks again, but even being able to obtain half those marks while remaining competitive will be enough to make the run at the Super Bowl a reality. Harbaugh may really be smitten, or perhaps it's a calculated move to get the media discussing Randy Moss again, providing motivation. With nothing to lose and a legacy to gain, motivation is certainly not in short supply for Randy Moss.

The Constellation Collection
for Ladies
In 1982, OMEGA launched the Constellation Manhattan, the watch that introduced the instantly-identifiable "Griffes" or claws. The popular collection was completely re-designed in 2009, attracting a whole new generation of Constellation wearers.
Continuing the legacy
The design of the new Constellations is clearly strongly inspired by its iconic ancestors. The familiar star is still at the 6 o'clock position and the claws, refined and updated, define every watch in the collection.
Distinctive features
There are features that distinguish the Constellation line from its forebears. The striking dials, available in silver, champagne, white, black and brown, and gold, white and blue mother-of-pearl, are finished with a sun-brushed pattern, super-nova pattern or, for some mother-of-pearl shades, a design that recalls the gentle lines of a feather. These Constellation timepieces are water resistant to depth of 10 bar (100 metres / 330 feet).
"The collection recalls the tradition of the line while proclaiming originality, design excellence and technical innovation. . ."Request an offer
A nearly unlimited choice
The scope of the Constellation launch in 2009 was unprecedented and OMEGA continues to add compelling new models. With its range of sizes, the choice of metals, the selection of dials and diamond options, there is at least one Constellation suited to every wrist.
Sporty and elegant
The Constellations are at once sporty and elegant. The ladies' watches in the family have been created in four sizes: 24 mm, 27 mm, 31 mm and 35 mm. The mechanical watches in the collection are equipped with OMEGA's Co-Axial calibres; the Constellations with quartz movements also deliver extraordinary precision.
A tradition of excellence
The Constellation line is a dynamic, contemporary upgrade of a watch family that has been an essential part of OMEGA since 1982. The current collection recalls the tradition of the line while proclaiming originality, design excellence and technical innovation that would have been the envy of its ancestors.

long as there is breath in my body
Complimentary Alternative Health Site
Wonder What Happened!
The human brain is an organic electrochemical computer so complex that to match it with current silicon technology you would need a computer the size of a small city.
The brain is the most metabolically active human organ and requires a steady supply of oxygen and glucose as fuel. Although the brain represents less than 2% of the body's mass, it utilizes 20% of the body's oxygen consumption and 15% of its cardiac output. Thus the brain produces an extraordinary amount of energy in the form of electrical wattage in relationship to the rest of the body.
The entire human body uses chemical reactions to produce both mechanical movements and electrical currents that flows through all our living cells. The brain is an analog computer, but amazingly the DNA code that creates it is digital. The average human brain contains approximately 10 billion neurons connected by trillions of synapses. It is therefore not difficult to imagine that this fantastically complex device, the human brain-body, could have a far more positive and benificial use than we know .
Parapsychology started at
the end of the nineteen twenties as a new experimental psychology.
Its purpose was to verify through empirical science the existence of
potential supernormal capabilities of the human body and the factors
affecting these capabilities. The potential capabilities of the human
body are also called supernormal capabilities, and in the west they
are called Psi phenomena, which means the unknown. The Psi phenomena
studied fell mainly into two major categories: extrasensory perception
and psychokinesis. Extrasensory perception refers to the ability of
obtaining information without going through the sensory organs (including
telepathy, clairvoyance, remote viewing, precognition and retrocognition).
Psychokinesis refers to the ability to influence and/or manipulate
the external material world without using ones hands or feet (including
teleportation, manipulating electrical instruments with ones mind intent,
and so on.)
We all get glimpses of superconsciousness in our daily life, but deep perceptions of it can really only come to us in the deep stillness of meditation. Properly speaking, meditation truly begins once the thoughts and emotions have stilled. It's a state of intense inward awareness, a state in which one's attention is no longer engaged in the outward activities of our lives, but is wholly engrossed in the superconscious experience. Meditation may be loosely defined as any practice of which the goal is superconsciousness. It's the process of retraining our awareness to operate not from the conscious or subconscious level, but from the superconscious.
As humans, we represent the culmination of physical evolution and contain within ourselves all the structures necessary for the realization of superconsciousness. Superconsciousness is the direct experience of who we actually are .
Because the experience of superconsciousness transcends words and is out of the range of our ":so-called"normal human experience, it is difficult to define. Perhaps we could say that superconsciousness is the state in which we experience bliss, dynamic will, unconditional love, intuitional intelligence, and abiding peace.
Complete, permanent, and undeviating
superconsciousness is a rare summit of human achievement, but even
a touch of the superconscious state can illumine an entire lifetime
In the peace and silence of the superconscious level, we become aware of the subtlest energies within and without. A whole new world opens up to us. We perceive colors in a new way and physical sensations become sharper and more acute.
Our emotions become more refined and we can grasp the subtlest nuances of emotional expression. Feelings are heightened, sensitized, and made broader in scope. Our mind becomes more acute so that we can grasp fine distinctions of meaning and delight in new discoveries. New horizons of intellectual discovery open before us.
We live in an ocean of energy,
and as that energy becomes opened to us, we grasp more of the subtle
side of life.The soul-consciousness at the heart of everything, behind
every experience, every thought, and every emotion, begins to be seen
by the inner eye of our rapidly expanding awareness.
Hypnosis sheds a faint light on certain levels of consciousness beneath the ordinary. By means of the intense concentration and focusing of attention that hypnosis evokes, we are able to accomplish feats of mind and body that otherwise only yogis know. Hypnosis works by forcing a thread of memory awareness deep into the mind labyrinth, which, however deeply it may penetrate the darkness, is always tied tightly to the ordinary consciousness at the top. Without that Ariadne's thread, the more deeply we were to concentrate on something, the more we would be lost to the world.
With special LiteFrames over your closed eyes and headphones over your ears, you are immersed in colorful geometric patterns and entrancing sounds. The light and sound pulse rate shifts from state to state as the session progresses; brain wave activity will follow the pulse rate of the machine and fall into synch with the changes.
When the brain is presented with a rhythmic stimulus, such as a drum beat for example, the rhythm is reproduced in the brain in the form of these electrical impulses. If the rhythm becomes fast and consistent enough, it can start to resemble the natural internal rhythms of the brain, called brainwaves. When this happens, the brain responds by synchronizing its own electric cycles to the same rhythm. This is commonly called the Frequency Following Response (or FFR):
FFR can be useful because brainwaves are very much related to mental state. For example, a 4 Hz brainwave is associated with sleep, so a 4 Hz sound pattern would help reproduce the sleep state in your brain. The same concept can be applied to nearly all mental states, including concentration, creativity and many others. It can even act as a gateway to exotic or extraordinary experiences, such as deep meditation or "lucid dreaming" type states
how Michael Hutchison describes the experience of using mind
machines in Megabrain:
Your brain is now functioning more effectively than it was before. Your memory both your ability to memorize new information and to recall information you have already learned has increased dramatically. Your ability to think creatively, to solve problems, has expanded. The speed with which your brain cells pass messages among themselves has increased. In fact, many of your brain cells have actually grown a microscopic examination would show that the brain cells have developed more dendrites, the branching filaments that carry messages from one cell to another, and more synapses, the junctures between the brain cells across which impulses are transmitted. You are more intelligent than you were a half hour before.
Such devices now exist and are being used by increasing numbers of people.
So begins Michael Hutchison's
book Megabrain
Heres another experience sent in by a light and sound user,,sound to me just like the Monks meditation states attained by their 20-30 year practice
I sat back in my lazy boy
recliner,,the music was playing through my head phones and the light
and sound session started.
Ironically, my body was heavier than ever, but it seemed I looked out from this vessel with an ancient stillness at odds with the atmosphere just beyond the reach of heavy arms.
As my body relaxed its energy, my mind slowly wandered through eastern philosophies, understanding and making connections with a normally dormant insight. So many things I learned in this state, so many lessons I no longer recall. I understood that this might happen and bade myself remember at least these two, most important understandings, one an answer to a philosophical riddle that had been plaguing me. The other an answer to a question I had not yet asked.
An hour later my quiet serenity
had passed, replaced by an equisite bliss for having experienced the
best L&S session and the greatest meditation of my life. If you
believe in such things, I now understand that I had taken a sip of
samadhi, basked in its glory for a blink of time.
The real heroine or hero of the inward journey does not remain in this symbolized version of themselves. They do not accept evil as an exterior agent, or spirituality as an outer and perhaps unattainable character. They do not accept their dreams at face value, but are ready to face themselves with the courage necessary. For it is an uncomfortable journey to actually see oneself. It is a demanding climb to have ones awareness stretched and widened beyond ones personal limitations in order to include a vaster experience of oneself. Therefore there are inbuilt or personal resistances to actually having direct insight. It is easier to remain at a symbolic level rather than discover the wonderful or uncomfortable truths about oneself, and the amazing bliss of a superconscious mind.

Amazing tools for wellness and relaxation
Dr. Roger K. Cady, Dr. Norman Shealy in "Neurochemical Responses to Cranial Electrical Stimulation and Photo-Stimulation via Brain Wave Synchronization."Study performed by the Shealy Institute of Comprehensive Health Care, Springfield, Missouri, 1990, 11 pp.:
Eleven patients had peridural and blood analysis performed before and after the relaxation sessions using flash emitting goggles. An average increase of beta-endorphin levels of 25% and serotonin levels of 21% were registered. The beta-endorphin levels are comparative to those obtained by cranial electrical stimulation (CES). This indicates a potential decrease of depression related symptoms when using photic stimulation
Dr. Norman Shealy, Dr. Richard Cox In `Pain Reduction and Relaxation with Brain Wave Synchronization (Photo-Stimulation). Study performed by the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, Springfield, Missouri, 1990, 9pp.
Cerebral synchronization was obtained with photic stimulation devices and tested on more than 5,000 patients suffering from chronic pain and stress-symptoms during the `80s. A detailed study on 92 patients indicated that 88 obtained relaxation results higher than 60% after 30- minute sessions at 10 hz. Thirty patients had sessions in Theta (5 hz) and experienced relaxation states of 50-100% after five minutes as well as improved pain relief. Eight patients had blood tests before and after the sessions and showed improved beta-endorphin levels of 10-50%. All of these relaxation results are improved when combining the photic stimulation with relaxation audio tapes.
Dr. Gene W. Brockopp, Review of Research on Multi-Modal Sensory
Stimulation with Clinical Implications and Research Proposals (non-published,1984):
Dr. Brockopp conclusion is that dissipative structures allow the mind-via audio-visual stimulation-to abandon certain present neurological structures in order to maintain a higher, more coherent and flexible state of consciousness, thus allowing for improved communication of neuro-entities
Dale S. Foster of Memphis State University, "EEG and Subjective Correlates of Alpha Frequency Binaural Beats Stimulation Combined with Alpha Biofeedback," 1988:
Mr. Foster's conclusions indicate that the combination of binaural sounds
with audio-visual stimulation machines allow access into Alpha states
of consciousness much faster than with traditional biofeedback techniques.
Four persons were exposed to photic stimulation in the 18, 10 and 6
hz ranges. A frequency response was established by two subjects during
the initial session according to EEG measurements. These persons had
an altered state of consciousness, and reported their visual and auditive
experiences. The two other subjects had similar experiences during follow-on
sessions. The study concludes that photic entrainment provokes altered
states of consciousness according to the applied frequencies.
Dr. Solomon works for the Department of Internal Medicine at the U.S. Air Force Medical Center in Scott, Illinois, where 24 patients with chronic headaches and migraines were treated with photic stimulation apparatus at 5-8 hz frequency. Fourteen of 15 patients with sustained headaches and 5 of 6 patients with chronic headaches noticed complete relief after the treatment. Four patients treated with the same photo- stimulation apparatus showed no reaction.

The University of Southern California preformed clinical trials in 1934 with Rife machine technology on 16 terminally ill cancer patients and all 16 were cured within the trial period of 3 to 4 months.

In the Fall of 1990, two researchers, Drs. William Lyman and Steven Kaali, working at Albert Einstein Medical College in New York City made an important discovery. They found that they could inactivate the HIV virus by applying a low voltage current to HIV infected blood in a test tube. They applied a direct current to the electrodes and found that a current flow in the range of 50-100 microamperes (uA) produced the most effective results. Practically all of the HIV viral particles were adversely affected while normal blood cells remained unharmed. The viral particles were not directly destroyed by the electric current, but rather the outer protein coating of the virus was affected in such a way as to prevent the virus from producing reverse transcriptase, a necessary enzyme needed by the virus to invade human cells.

With the way now cleared for his trial, Zacarias Moussaoui faces the daunting task of trying to convince a jury that while he is a member of Al Qaeda, hates America and was taking flying lessons like some of the people involved with the Sept. 11 attacks, he was not involved with the plot.
In statements he made this week in his on-again, off-again effort to plead guilty to some of the charges in the indictment, Mr. Moussaoui could easily be convicted of being a member of a terrorist organization and giving aid to a terrorist organization.
But the Justice Department has always sought to treat him as something with far greater symbolism, a living link to the plotters who took so many lives at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and someone deserving of the death penalty. If he were not under arrest for immigration violations at the time, the government has said, he would have been the 20th hijacker.
Mr. Moussaoui's persistent, if poorly articulated, rejoinder is that while he is an enemy of the United States, the prosecutors have overreached in tying him to Sept. 11. It is an argument that would be difficult for an experienced lawyer to make at trial, but Mr. Moussaoui, a French citizen whose English is imperfect, has chosen to make it on his own.
This week, the federal judge presiding over the case swept away the last legal obstacles to Mr. Moussaoui's representing himself in a full-scale trial against experienced government prosecutors.Continue reading the main story
Prof. William Stuntz of the Harvard Law School, an authority on criminal procedure, said that while Mr. Moussaoui might have won his point that he had a right to defend himself, ''There is no way he will be able to mount as effective a defense as he would with a lawyer at his side.''
Judge Leonie M. Brinkema, who has had to navigate delicately between her obligation to be fair to Mr. Moussaoui and her need to deal firmly with his often-bizarre handwritten motions, said on Thursday that she would not reverse her earlier ruling that found him competent to act as his own lawyer. Her action ruled out the possibility that she could find Mr. Moussaoui not competent to stand trial.
Mr. Moussaoui's behavior in the Alexandria, Va., courtroom in which he abandoned his efforts to plead guilty to part of the indictment was, in fact, lauded by the judge as evidence that he was capable of understanding the case against him and making rational tactical decisions.
In the motions he has filed since Judge Brinkema ruled that he could fire his court-appointed lawyers and defend himself, he has asserted that she and the government were secretly conspiring to have him assassinated and that the F.B.I. had planted a listening device in his electric fan and known about the Sept. 11 plot beforehand.
His motions were captioned, ''Zacarias Moussaoui versus U.S. godless government'' and a typical one asked Judge Brinkema to ''Stop the Cynical Comedy, Parody of Justice Directed by DJ Brinkema.''
Those motions were the basis of a final, unsuccessful effort by the court-appointed lawyers whom he had fired to demonstrate that he was not rational enough to defend himself.
On Thursday, Mr. Moussaoui, 34, appeared to listen attentively to the judge before deciding to withdraw his guilty plea.
The judge complimented Mr. Moussaoui for obeying her order to cease filing the troublesome motions and said his decision about his plea helped assure her that he could defend himself.
Mr. Moussaoui, who has castigated the American justice system, said he hoped he could convince a jury of that and save his life.
''That's why I want to talk to these 12 people,'' he said. ''These 12 American who are my enemy, but sometimes you can find honest enemy.''
Professor Stuntz said Judge Brinkema's decision allowing Mr. Moussaoui to represent himself was not surprising.
''The risks of her being reversed on appeal for taking this stand are close to none,'' he said. ''Since 1973 when the Supreme Court said that people have a constitutional right to represent themselves if they are competent -- and competence is defined very broadly -- trial judges know that they are more at risk of reversal by forcing a defendant to accept a lawyer against his will.''
Jury selection for the trial will begin on Sept. 30, about three weeks after the first anniversary of the terrorist attacks. Judge Brinkema will probably not allow Mr. Moussaoui to question potential jurors directly but will ask him to provide questions that she will ask.
Because he is representing himself, the trial will probably include the odd spectacle of Mr. Moussaoui directly questioning the prosecution's witnesses.
Judge Brinkema's repeated efforts to find a lawyer whom Mr. Moussaoui would trust and consult may, however, have finally yielded some success. Prof. Sadiq Reza of the New York Law School met with Mr. Moussaoui for 20 minutes before Thursday's court appearance at the judge's suggestion.
Professor Reza, who fits Mr. Moussaoui's requirement that any adviser be a Muslim, is not representing him, but in an interview, he did not rule out continuing to play a role in Mr. Moussaoui's trial.Continue reading the main story

'Glee' To 'Vikings': Jessalyn Gilsig Talks Extreme Makeunder
Probably best known as Will Schuester's (Matthew Morrison) colorful and conniving ex-wife, Terry, on the musical series, Gilsig wanted to make sure that none of that was present – except maybe the conniving – in her new character on the epic period series (History's first foray into scripted series TV after the success of miniseries, Hatfields & McCoys).
"So, I felt like I had to let go of a lot of things like change my hair color and commit completely to not wearing any makeup to really make sure that I was as integrated into the role as possible and not have any holds that would take people out of the experience."
The Canadian actress plays Siggy, wife of the local chieftain, Early Heraldson (played by Gabriel Byrne), whose position becomes threatened by the ambitious Ragnar (Travis Fimmel), a Viking warrior who will later become legend.
This is the kind of part Gilsig has been waiting for. "I felt like when I read it that this show was a lot of why I became an actor," Gilsig — who also produced and starred in the movie, Somewhere Slow, which is currently making the film festival rounds — tells us.
"I've always been quite a history buff and I've always loved the idea, the thought of kind of that we're storytellers and we want to take people out of their environment and give them an experience that's foreign," she adds. "And that's so much of what this show is."
"What we do know about this era is that the women had more rights than they've had often in Western Civilization," Gilsig, 41, points out. "They could divorce. Rape was not legal within the society. They fought in battle. They were trained in sword fights. And, they could rule. So, somewhere somebody decided to erase the history of the Vikings and the position that women had, but there was a time when women were going toe-to-toe with the men."
With all that power to protect, what can fans expect from Siggy? "My character is definitely a slow burn, because when we meet her she is in collaboration with her husband, who's really sort of the face of our power. But, we're in a really vulnerable position because we have no son. Our sons have died," Gilsig reveals.
Vikings premieres Sunday at 10PM on History Channel.

Button has no 2014 contract
This topic contains 21 replies, has 16 voices, and was last updated by Anonymous 3 years, 10 months ago.
22nd August 2013, 22:04 at 10:04 pmParticipant
The silly season gets sillier with all sorts of possibilties now that JB has no 2014 contract.
Sit back and enjoy the craziest of silly seasons
22nd August 2013, 22:27 at 10:27 pmParticipant
Jenson to Ferrari, you heard it here first.
22nd August 2013, 22:35 at 10:35 pmParticipant
I think JB will probably stay at McLaren for 2014…but I guess stranger things have happened. The way Jenson talks about Ferrari does sound like he is intrigued by the opportunity, and has said in past interviews that he would like the chance to go toe to toe with Alonso.
22nd August 2013, 23:12 at 11:12 pmParticipant
Ferrari wouldn't be short on experience if they signed Button.
On the other hand, if he does end up not returning to McLaren, that FR3.5 title fight becomes super-important because Vandoorne and Magnussen should be considered front-runners for that vacant seat.
22nd August 2013, 23:42 at 11:42 pmParticipant
If McLaren partner either of their talents in FR 3.5 with Perez, I'll eat my hat.
(joke's on you, I don't own any hats.)
23rd August 2013, 2:22 at 2:22 amParticipant
I'll repeat what i said on some other thread. A brazilian journalist (that usually is right) said that Ferrari and Red Bull would make an offer to Jenson. Reading to Button's words it seems that a move from Mclaren is possible.
The silly season is really crazy this year.
23rd August 2013, 7:38 at 7:38 amParticipant
Hmm, the Button-Ferrari thing actually makes sense. Button would be perfect number 2 driver, as he would collect enough points to secure the fight for WCC, but he wouldn't be a real threat for Alonso. The only question is why would Jenson want to go there? Does he seriously think he could match Alonso on same car?
23rd August 2013, 7:45 at 7:45 amParticipant
I think what it comes down to is Honda vs Alonso. That sounds stranger than it is. Jenson has worked with Honda before, and there is a good chance that with Honda coming to McLaren, it could be a vital step towards McLaren being back on top. But on the other hand, he may not necessarily get the challenge of a Champion team mate.
At Ferrari, Button would have to go up against double World Champion, Fernando Alonso. Everyone said he was crazy to go to Hamilton's team, but he did well there. By going to a new team, which is said to be someone else's, pitting himself up against one of the best on the grid, he doesn't have much to lose. Not to mention there is a good chance that Ferrari will make a very good engine. It would just be sad if they didn't, given how much Montezemolo has been ranting on about engine development. On the subject of Montezemolo, someone like JB would be ideal for Ferrari, surely? He is vastly experienced, he is a team player (Even this year, he has been loyal to McLaren, and not become frustrated) and despite him being a World Champion, his relaxed nature doesn't create those same rivalries, which Ferrari probably try to avoid with their "Only one number one driver" policy.
Let's face it, Jenson isn't getting any younger, and how many chances do you get to drive for Ferrari? In recent years, they haven't really fared any worse than McLaren, bar 2011, and the years they were behind, were mainly because of Massa.
23rd August 2013, 7:59 at 7:59 amParticipant
Not to mention there is a good chance that Ferrari will make a very good engine. It would just be sad if they didn't, given how much Montezemolo has been ranting on about engine development.
To be honest, I'm a rather worried Tifosi. They had their stuff together with their V10 after just a few years, and their V8 isn't bad either; but it's not the best. I don't think Ferrari will run into any problems they would have had with the V12 in the mid-90s (high fuel consumption, sketchy reliability), but I think aerodynamics aren't the only thing Ferrari are used to developing on track. Their V10 was bulletproof (I think Schumacher went several seasons without an engine failure), but then their cars drove insane amounts of GP distances on Fiorano.
23rd August 2013, 9:00 at 9:00 amParticipant
Amazing to think that with all their money, resources and political power, Ferrari haven't won a single Drivers' title since 2007 or a Constructors' title since 2008.
23rd August 2013, 9:03 at 9:03 amParticipant
It was their own fault that they messed up that last race in 2010, otherwise they would have won.
23rd August 2013, 14:07 at 2:07 pm
@jamiefranklinf1 – spot on mate. Most forget (or choose to) that Button won in the points in the 3 years of Jenson V Lewis. Not as fast on one lap but what a race car driver!!
Button is, and always has been, the real deal, and like Mark Webber took some time to get a fast car. But thats ok, some TOP F1 drivers never get a top car! Thats life! Jenson & McLaren seem a "good fit" and I see Jenson at McLaren as long as will keep him!
McLarens bad form this year is a bad car design- a win or lose choice that went bad, similar to how Brawn won in 2009, McLaren lost this year. They will come good, and Jenson will have Serg right behind him to make sure they are both fast!!
Button to The Horse?? Nah…………. doesnt fit! The Hulk? Yes, fits!! Jules a bit early….. yet!
23rd August 2013, 14:56 at 2:56 pmParticipant
It was interesting when Horner was asked about this during practice he said Jenson had a contract at McLaren, unless he's a very good actor I dont think Button could have come to him.
23rd August 2013, 15:24 at 3:24 pmParticipant
Why doesn't Button fit at Ferrari, Garns, or somebody??
And exactly what kind of F1-drivers fits Ferrari well, if you guys can explain me.. :-)
23rd August 2013, 19:08 at 7:08 pmParticipant
I think Button would be a good fit for Ferrari. Although i don't appreciate his driving style, he proved to be a consistent point scorer (with some wins) which is exactly what Ferrari needs.

My father told me a long time ago, as he explained the meaning of the 8th Commandment, to "put the best construction on everything."
In other words, try to cast things in a favorable light, even if people don't deserve it sometimes.
I don't claim to always have listened to my father but, through the years, despite the unbelievable salaries of CEOs and their stock options, etc., I've tried to believe that corporate greed isn't as bad as some have said.
No more.
A couple times in the last two years I've kept a daily tabulation of gas prices. Last week, again, the price at a nearby station changed twice in one day.
I guess you'd have to be naive not to think the oil companies are messing with us, the poor souls who have to fork over the money to put gas in our cars.
Day after day, week after week, year after year, there are reminders that corporations are putting the squeeze on the little guy.
They're not satisfied with making millions – they have to make a lot of extra millions. Or billions.
Don't get me wrong. This is America, the land of opportunity for many years, and there's nothing wrong with making a buck, Or making more than a buck.
True, some people born with a silver spoon in their mouth have a better chance of making that buck than others. But many have worked their way up the ladder the hard way and deserve everything they've gotten.
What really turns me off, as well as plenty of others like me, is a company that turns to unscrupulous means to generate income that may or may not be rightfully theirs.
And the latest example here in Minnesota is Fairview, a well-known hospital name that has served the Milaca, Princeton and Zimmerman areas well for a couple decades now.
The StarTribune ran a story on Wednesday of last week telling us that Attorney General Lori Swanson issued a report saying the company pressured patients to pay money before being treated.
Swanson's report said that Fairview's practices designed by Accretive Health, an Illinois consulting firm, appear to violate state and federal laws.
Fairview's first comments were that it shared Swanson's concerns, and that it had dropped Accretive as its revenue manager. A couple days later Fairview dropped Accretive completely from other things it had contracted for.
Then the Minneapolis paper reported that two Fairview executives had ties with Accretive, including sons who work for Accretive. And one of the Fairview executives owns stock in Accretive.
Fairview CEO Mark Eustis, whose son works for Accretive, said in a story that Fairview hadn't broken any laws but acknowledged Fairview's reputation had been damaged.
I know many, many good people who work for Fairview, some of whom I've known for decades. And I wondered a bit at some of the stories in the StarTribune.
But there are just too many stories out there for me to believe there isn't a problem.
Monday, for example, in a chance conversation, two people told me of instances where they had been asked to pay ahead of time, one of them a short time ago. It even happened to a Fairview employee. And it happened to someone else being admitted at an emergency room.
Someone else told about getting a bill that listed costs for physical therapy that simply hadn't been done.
Do such practices qualify under the heading of corporate greed? I think so.
But let's be frank: Our health care system is one big mess. Is health care for everyone an inalienable right? Many people's minds have changed over the years and they now think that it is a right.
A friend who is a doctor in the Fairview system told me of support for a single-payer system that would take care of compensation problems, as well as giving patients the freedom to get care without any of the hassles we've read about the past few days.
That doctor told of free care that takes place, and of Fairview officials trying to be sensitive to those who don't have the wherewithal to pay for some large bills.
That doctor also said that this flap with the attorney general could turn out to be a good thing if the payment system gets straightened out.
I don't for a minute buy Accretive's statement Monday that it didn't pressure patients to pay early. The facts are there. Nor do I buy that some Fairview people didn't know what was going on.
It reminds us that there are lots of people out there who don't care at all about people, as long as they get their money.
We should also be reminded that there are lots of good Fairview people – in Milaca, Princeton and Zimmerman – who do care about the people who come to see them. They're not the ones who should come in for criticism.
Maybe we'll all be better off when the smoke clears and action is taken.

A JAM making dynasty from Altrincham is offering people the chance to get their hands on a piece of First World War history.
The lifesaving Lifeguard Periscope was invented by Edgar Duerr, a second generation member of the leading business family and thousands were used by soldiers on the Western Front.
The original device was manufactured at the company's Old Trafford factory and to mark the centenary of the outbreak of WWI 100 replicas have been produced by the firm for collectors to buy.
A donation of 25 per cent from every sale will go towards helping the servicemen of today - boosting the funds of the Royal British Legion.
Tony Duerr, chairman of Duerr's and great nephew of Edgar Duerr said: "Edgar Duerr's innovation symbolised the spirit of bravery and innovation that defined the war fought in the trenches.
"A simple solution meant frontline soldiers were handed a lifeline, able to effectively stick their heads above the parapet to battle fearlessly to secure victory.
"Through this limited re-release we wanted to pay tribute to the valour and resourcefulness of the time while we do what we can to raise money for those who selflessly continue to defend us today."
The importance of the Lifeguard Periscope in the First World War has been recognised by the Imperial War Museum in both London and Trafford Park, with original devices forming part of their collections.
* The periscope is available for £65 from duerrs.co.uk.

This painting is appropriate for my students because they are making new friends everyday, yet they have old friends that will probably be their lifetime friends. The theme of friendship has been discussed in previous classes; therefore, they can relate to it in a more ease form.
My students shared their opinions and ideas by practicing their listening and oral communication skills. By writing the descriptive paragraphs, the students practice the writing process and their writing skills. This activity encourages students to think about the meaning and value of friendship and it allows them to in one or another decide who will be their friend(s) for a lifetime.

LEWISPORTE - The Christmas Cup has been touted has one of the highlights of many local players holidays and something to look forward to during the holiday season.
The two-day tournament, which starts on Boxing Day, has become very popular in recent years and has grown every year since. In its fourth year, the 2011 event included eight teams, up from seven in 2010 and six the previous year.
With 90 players participating, a draft was held to pick the teams with eight captains selecting. The eight captains included Greg Feltham, Greg Eveleigh, Mitch Oake, Brandon Nicholas, Keith Budden, Steve Brown, Lucas Eveleigh and Mike Hutchings. Greg Feltham, one of the event coordinators for the event said, "All the players are local with the exception of a few and has been gaining interest from players and fans since the first year."
The tournament featured some prominent local hockey talent such as Lucas Batt, who is currently playing competitive hockey in Saskatchewan and Jon Oake, who is also playing competitive hockey in Ontario. Others included current Cataracts Brandon Nicholas and Mitch Oake, as well as the majority of the Lewisporte Senior Seahawks. With Mitch Oake winning the past two Christmas Cups, his team was the team to beat and came very close to securing a third championship, however they were defeated in the final by Greg Felthams team 4-3.
Semi-finals and finals attracted many fans and were a hit from the start with many players showing their interest before and after the tournament on social networks like Facebook and twitter.

On Cointegration and Exchange Rate Dynamics
Baillie and Bollerslev (1989) have recently argued that nominal dollar spot exchange rates are cointegrated. Here we examine an immediate implication of their finding, namely, that cointegration implies an error-correction representation yielding forecasts superior to those from a martingale benchmark, in light of a large earlier literature highlighting the predictive superiority of the martingale. In an out-of-sample forecasting exercise, we find the martingale model to be superior. We then perform a battery of improved cointegration tests and find that the evidence for cointegration is much less strong than previously thought, a result consistent with the outcome of the forecasting exercise.

Deputies seize guns, drugs and motorcycles
January 15, 2013
Five people were arrested on a variety of charges and Nevada County Sheriff's deputies seized a number of guns, as well as meth and pot, while conducting two searches on the San Juan Ridge Wednesday.
Several motorcycles also were located, at least two of which were confirmed as stolen.
Members of the Narcotics Task Force and the Major Crimes Unit had gone to a residence in the 15000 block of Grizzly Hill Road to conduct a search on a man who had been released on his own recognizance with search conditions, said Sheriff Keith Royal.
The man was not at the residence, but deputies searched his residence and found a small-caliber automatic handgun, Royal said.
They also allegedly found a Harley Davidson motorcycle with a discrepancy in its vehicle identification number.
Three people who were at the residence were arrested. Forrest Donald Simpson, 26, of Nevada City, was arrested on suspicion of driving on a suspended license, booked into county jail and released on $1,080 bail. Lisa Elizabeth Floyd, 29, of Nevada City, and Donald George Cross, 25, of Sacramento, were arrested on out-of-county warrants, according to Royal.
Possible charges are pending against the third man, whose identity was not released.
Deputies also served a search warrant at a residence in the 25000 block of North Bloomfield-Graniteville Road.
They allegedly discovered an SKS assault rifle and a Sten submachine gun, ammunition, 3 grams of methamphetamine and a half-pound of processed marijuana. They also allegedly found two stolen motorcycles and stolen tires.
Boy James Wilkinson, 49, was arrested on suspicion of being an ex-felon in possession of a firearm, possessing a controlled substance, and being a felon in possession of ammunition. He was being held in lieu of $20,000 bail.
Another man at the residence, Jeffory Alan Amberson, 26, of Nevada City, was arrested on an out-of-county warrant, according to Royal.

The caucus will elect Communications Minister Stephen Conroy, from the Victorian Right, as the new Senate leader, as senior ministers seek to contain the fallout from the controversial timing of Julia Gillard's ministerial reshuffle.
Finance Minister Penny Wong, from the Left, will become Senate deputy. Human Services Minister Kim Carr, a Kevin Rudd backer and also from the Left, said he would not stand for either position.
''In the current political environment this would not be about the needs of the Senate'', he told The Age, adding that he wanted to thank the ''many well wishers from Victoria and other parts of the country'' who urged him to stand for Senate leader.
Senator Conroy, now the deputy Senate leader, replaces Chris Evans, who with Nicola Roxon stood down from the ministry on Saturday.
Ahead of Monday's first caucus meeting of the year, the Prime Minister has rallied Labor candidates for the government's survival battle on September 14.
On Sunday, she told MPs and other candidates in ''target'' seats - including marginal seats the ALP is defending or trying to win - that they were the ''frontline'' in taking Labor's arguments and values to communities across the nation.
They must be out in their communities explaining that achieving educational reform and setting up the National Disability Insurance Scheme were ''the work of governing and we are not done yet''.
They must spread the message that ''for us to keep increasing opportunity, to keep protecting people from risk not only requires us to work hard between now and the election day in September. But it requires us in the Labor government that lies beyond that election to keep working with their interests always at our forefront.''
ALP national secretary George Wright said Labor could win. ''We have to believe in ourselves'' and not look at the polls and say ''it's all too hard'', he told the candidates.
The embattled government leapt on a provocative comment from manager of opposition business Christopher Pyne, who said: ''This government is starting to resemble a scene from [the movie] Downfall and the Prime Minister is presiding over a divided and dysfunctional government.''
New Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus, who is Jewish, called a news conference to say: ''There is no place in Australian political debate for a comparison of any Australian government with Hitler's Third Reich.'' Mr Dreyfus previously accused Tony Abbott of ''Goebbellian cynicism''.
Ministers closed ranks behind Ms Gillard's reshuffle, which party critics say has added to a feeling of chaos, in particular because of its timing, coming on the heels of the announcement of the election date and just before Parliament's start.
Leader of the House of Representatives Anthony Albanese said people should ''get real''. ''We've had a couple of people step down for family reasons. There is no suggestion that there is any reason other than personal ones.''
Nine Coalition MPs had announced they would not recontest.
Schools Minister Peter Garrett said the reshuffle timing made sense. ''We're going into the Parliament, so the caucus needs to make a determination about the Senate leader.''
Workplace Relations Minister Bill Shorten said it would have been undesirable to have drawn-out speculation.
He hit out at the Coalition, saying it could not get ''shellbacks'' on the frontbench such as Bronwyn Bishop and Kevin Andrews to retire.
With speculation that Robert McClelland might be offered a NSW judicial appointment and quit Parliament early, Mr Pyne said Ms Gillard needed to confirm whether byelections would be held within two or three months of anyone resigning, and not held off until September ''to keep the Prime Minister's tenuous hold on power in place''. Labor colleagues believe Mr McClelland is unlikely to leave soon, destabilising the government.
The new ministry will be sworn in on Monday.

Prison inmates lose many of their civil rights. But the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution (which prohibits "cruel and unusual punishment"), other federal laws, and state laws ensure that they don't lose all of them.
Prison inmates retain rights to basic freedoms like freedom of speech and religion, and equal protection of law, meaning a right not to be treated differently than other prisoners based on characteristics such as race, sex, or religion (see Does the right to equal protection mean that all prisoners must be classified alike?). Prisoners also have the right to basic—albeit minimum—living standards. However, prisons may curtail these rights to some extent in the name of safety, order, and security. Courts tend to uphold prison rules that limit prisoners' exercise of constitutional rights as long as the rules are reasonably related to legitimate prison needs.
For further reading, see How do courts determine whether prison conditions are cruel and unusual?
