A new possible scenario for the origin of the molecular collective behaviour associated with the emergence of living matter is presented. We propose that the transition from a non-living to a living cell could be mapped to a quantum transition to a coherent entanglement of condensates, like in a multigap BCS superconductor. Here the decoherence-evading qualities at high temperature are based on the Feshbach resonance that has been recently proposed as the driving mechanism for high Tc superconductors. Finally we discuss how the proximity to a particular critical point is relevant to the emergence of coherence in the living cell.
In these last years the genomes of many species have been sequenced, the structures of many macromolecular machineries of the cell have been solved using advanced physical methods and a large amount of experimental information has been accumulated on the networks of interactions between biomolecules in the living cell [
The challenge of the post-genomic era is to study how biological networks actually work in the space-time in living cells. This is described today as a coherent dynamical network of networks in a physical state where evolution has operated in lowering the network entropy [
The idea that the coherent state of living matter emerges in the proximity of a critical point in the so called scenario of biological order at the edge of chaos is attracting high interest in the scientific community. Mathematical models of evolving systems in which the rate of evolution is maximized near the edge of chaos have been proposed by Kauffman and Kadanoff [
The superfluid phases, the Bardeen Cooper Schrieffer (BCS) condensate for a fermionic gas and the Bose-Einstein condensate for a bosonic gas are clear realizations of macroscopic quantum coherence [
We propose to examine the problem of the emergence of biological order as a form of quantum-like condensation in the way we progressively understand more from quantum matter studies in high Tc superconductors. We start from a picture of the minimum cell as a system made up of networks of biochemical reactions [
Clearly the living cell is a selected particular state of matter [
The living state of matter is associated with the first formation of nano-architectures in the cells made up of superlattices of quasi-2D water layers intercalated between lipid bilayers. This cell architecture reduces the dimensionality of the available space for the dynamical biochemical reactions embedded in the 1D superlattice to a quasi-2D space.
We propose that the quantum like transition that realizes the stable state of living matter at room temperature is similar to the
A key piece of experimental information for understanding the emergence of living matter is to locate life in the time scale of the Universe. The quantitative measure of the time elapsed from the Big Bang to our days has been object of scientific discussion for a long time. Recently the age of the Universe has been carefully measured to be 13.69 ± 0.13·109 yr by cosmic microwave background (CMB) data [
The cosmic microwave background radiation measured by the COBE satellite provides a further indication about the temperature of the Universe nowadays [
It is thought that as matter cooled it underwent phase transitions, during the course of which the Universe's state of symmetry was altered. As the temperature of the Universe was decreasing to a temperature of 1012 K (at ~10−4 seconds after the Big Bang) the thermal energy of the universe was low enough to allow the hot soup of quarks to condense; quarks fell together in triplets under the influence of the strong nuclear force and have remained stable ever since, as protons and neutrons. This period is known as the quark-hadron transition.
Phase transitions from a disordered state into an ordered state with broken symmetry can occur in the real space (liquid-solid transition) or in the momentum space (BCS, Bose Einstein condensation). Kirznits and Linde [
The spontaneous symmetry breaking theory has evolved from the BCS theory, describing the formation of a quantum condensate of a fermionic gas being a phase transition from a disordered state of matter to a dynamically ordered state of matter. The BCS theory of superconductivity is a case of broken gauge invariance and therefore is a case of dynamical symmetry breaking [
This result actually gives the dispersion of massive relativistic particles. In the BCS theory the electrons near the Fermi surface are described by
This gives also the dispersion of Bogolyubov quasi-particles [
The work of Nambu-Jona-Lasinio has produced a revolution in elementary-particle physics, since the protons and neutrons are view as composed by the quantum condensation of quarks (a particle with mass m is described as a BCS-like condensate with gap Δ) which give them peculiar properties.
The formal analogy between the masses of particles and the gaps of the BCS excitations spectrum provides a new point of view in seeing nucleons. The condensed matter physics of quarks is rapidly developing during these years by using methods of superconductivity theory adapted to Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD). This analysis results in the identification of condensates in diquark channels, analogous to the Cooper pairs of electrons in ordinary superconductor. This is known as the phenomenon of color superconductivity [
A few million years after the start of the Universe, when temperature was about 103K, the thermal energy of the Universe was below the dissociation energy of molecular hydrogen (13.6 eV), therefore only after this time could molecules be formed. The CMB temperature reached 370 K, the boiling point of water, at 3·107 yr from the Big Bang. Therefore only after this time the formation of liquid water, considered to be the essential medium for biochemical interaction, becomes possible.
The living matter that we know in our planet is made of 23 different elements forming biomolecules in liquid water. Since the element synthesis occurs at the end of the life time of a star (as in a supernova explosion) the coexistence of the 23 elements in the same spot of the space becomes possible in the universe only at the end of the life of the first stars (about 1.5·109 yr).
The Earth, where all 92 stable elements are present, is a product of a supernova explosion that was trapped by the sun, at about 9·109 yr after the Big Bang [
It is possible that forms of primitive life, like thermophile bacteria, which can survive and reproduce until 394 K [
Due to this uncertainty, we suggest that non-living to living matter transitions happened in the range of time when on Earth the water was in the range of temperature of 320 K and the Universe age was 9.8 ± 0.43·109 yr. However, when temperature decreased new forms of life found evolutionary advantage over the others until the complex cyanobacteria were formed around 11 ± 0.4·109 yr after the Big Bang [
According with Oparin the emergence of living matter is associated with the formation of the smectic 2D liquid of phospholipids forming the bilayer lipid membranes [
We propose that the role of the multilayer geometry is to lower the dimensionality for the dynamics of the biomolecules embedded in the system, giving rise to new form of interactions resulting in a quantum-like coherent behaviour which is the theme of the following chapter.
These kinds of complex systems, having layered periodicities in the real space, give rise to different types of particles: a first one that moves only in the 2D space between the layers and a second one for which the hopping between layers is possible and therefore can have 3D character. In this scenario the evolution should have refined specific gates that allow the transfer of protons through the membrane. We can therefore schematize in
A living organism can be viewed as a collection of biochemical activities. Most biological characteristics arise from complex interactions between the numerous cell constituents, such as proteins, DNA, RNA and small molecules. Various types of interaction webs, or networks, (including protein-protein interaction, metabolic, signalling and transcription-regulatory networks) emerge from the sum of these interactions.
The emerging paradigm relates the biological functions with these biological networks [
The metabolic network it is made up of a closed cycle of biochemical reactions as shown in
It is clear the key problem for the emergence of life is the coherent dynamics of biological networks interacting with free biomolecules. The recent advances in this field have shown that biological complex networks can be described by quantum statistics [
Let us consider a living cell constituted by many networks exploiting different functions which are not independent. The emergence of life in the cell is related to the cooperative dynamics of the network of networks [
A possible scenario is that each of these networks is in the proximity (each one at a different distance) of off-equilibrium phase transitions toward ordered phases analogous to a quantum-like condensate and the life will emerge from the onset of coherence between condensates. In fact living matter displays a dynamical and spatial order with collective properties and non-local interactions like in a superfluid [
The BCS provides a general theory for condensation in fermionic systems [
Recently looking for unity in the diversity of several recently discovered different types of high Tc superconductors: cuprates, [
It is well known that the critical temperature of a superconducting phase is lower than 20K in a homogeneous three-dimensional system [
The key for solving the problem has been to focus on subtle structural and dynamical details that could give a macroscopic quantum coherence that is strong enough to be stable at room temperature. Therefore one has to go beyond the standard BCS approximations for a generic homogeneous system: (i)

These resonances are a clear manifestation of the non locality of quantum mechanics and appear in many fields of physics and chemistry such as the molecular association and dissociation processes. In the physics of ultra cold gases the Feshbach resonances show up by tuning the chemical potential of the atomic gas around the energy of a discrete level of a diatomic molecule controlled by an external magnetic field. The Feshbach resonances is a quantum phenomenon that enhances the entanglement of the particles in the continuum therefore they have been used to achieve the Bose-Einstein condensation in the dilute bosonic gases of alkali atoms and BCS-like condensate in fermionic ultra-cold gases with large values of Tc/TF.[
The process for increasing Tc by a Feshbach "shape resonance" in a superconductor was first proposed for a superconducting thin film by Blatt and Thompson [
Following the experimental evidence of nanoscale striped lattice fluctuations in cuprates, [
The discovery of diborides [
The idea is that the particular multilayered architectures formed by a superlattice of metallic superconducting units intercalated by a different material can bestow decoherence evading qualities to the system. The quantum tricks to realize high Tc superconductors are based on the generic feature of the electronic structure of the superlattices.
In the superlattice the electronic structure is made of subbands where n and n′ are the subband indexes. kx,y (kx',y′) is the component of the wavevector in the plane direction (or longitudinal direction) and kz, (kz′) is the superlattice wavevector (in the transverse direction) of the initial (final) state in the pairing process, and μ the chemical potential.
In the BCS approximation, i.e., a separable kernel, the gap parameters have the same energy cut off as the interaction. The value of the gaps Δ
In the multigap superconductivity for a two band system the coupling interaction is given by a matrix
A simple formula of the critical temperature Tc where the Fermi level is far apart from the band edges for a two band system with density of states
It is clear from this expression that where A=B there is divergent enhancement of the critical temperature that will reach the energy scale of the interaction cut off and therefore it could easily reach 400K.
In this scenario the Feshbach resonance [
This phase of matter is expected near a quantum critical point. This scenario is supported by the recent remark that in the biological matter embedded in membrane stacks the long range Coulomb interaction drives the mobile charges close to the Wigner crystal phase [
The origin of life is related with the onset of a coherent phase of a finite number of selected biomolecules making the living cell. The cell is made of few essential biological networks represented as graphs where nodes are connected by links to their experimentally determined partners [
These results have produced relevant advances in understanding enzyme kinetics that have allowed for a detailed understanding of how many enzymes work. It is now appreciated that enzyme-catalyzed proton and hydride transfer reactions often occur by quantum mechanical tunneling [
The Feshbach resonances have been discovered in the early period of nuclear physics and used to study the nuclear levels spectrum [
A Feshbach resonance for biomolecules is an enhancement in the scattering amplitude of a first biomolecule incident on a second biomolecule when the energy of the former is approximately that needed to create a quasibound state of the two-particle system. If a pair of biomolecules has a molecular bound state near zero energy, then during collisions they stick together for a little while as they undergo a Feshbach resonance. In a few words, a Feshbach-resonant molecular collision occurs when two biomolecules collide and form a long-lived transient molecule, which ultimately decays again in two free biomolecules. In the living cell the long-lived transient protein-protein quasi-bound states should be predominantly determined by the spectrum of protein conformation fluctuations.
The essential biological networks making up a living cell include: protein biosynthesis, ribosome biogenesis, metabolism, transport, cell homeostasis, cell cycle. In the protein-protein interaction network the nodes are proteins and the links are biochemical reactions [
In this simple example therefore we have two different quasi-bound states AC* and BA* for the same protein A and each of these states is characterized by an association-dissociation equilibrium constant.
The links attached to the node can belong to the same network or be in a modular region between overlapping networks each of them performing a variety of tasks. However, when a first node protein is transiently associated with a second linked protein, the third protein remains dissociated and free in solution. But how can we try to explain the dynamical process which forbids for the free proteins to bind with the many other highly concentrated proteins in a typical cell milieu? We propose that the protein-protein interaction has to be tuned (changing physical parameters such as density, temperature, membrane architectures, pH and temperature) near resonating Feshbach states. In this resonating state it is of not main importance how much far away the protein is when it is dissociated because it will return to associate transiently again. The coherence in the dynamics of proteins inside the cell is related with the Feshbach resonances of the biological reactions so that the network develop if the same protein associate and dissociate transiently in time with a great number of proteins. In other word, this means that the protein is an highly linked node of the network. The link condensation on a node protein can be controlled weighting the link themselves with appropriate association and dissociation constants. A carefully engineering of the dissociation constants within a network of protein interactions could be a way to achieve a Feshbach resonance in biological matter, establishing finally a robust and functional system against the decoherence attacks of temperature. The interesting physics is that the living cells will be a condensate of condensates as in high Tc superconductors.
In this work we have located the origin life on the timescale of our Universe. We have presented a scenario where the emergence of life is associated with an entangled phase of networks. Therefore it is possible that in the evolution the coherent states of biological matter, appeared as coherent phase of matter, could be mapped as multigap BCS condensates.
Until very recently the coherence of living organisms, despite its very central importance for life, was an almost totally neglected property of living organisms by the biochemical oriented scientific community. Right now this situation starts to change focusing on how the coherence of living matter got established at the onset of life. This review proposes a mechanism based on the knowledge of new achievements in physics. The origin of this coherence is connected to a phase transition at a critical point, where the system is initiated and after which the system has sufficient stability to continue its existence. The fundamental question is posed how the system could escape the decohering activity of high temperature (the real problem to overcome) and the new physics emerging in high Tc superconductors is used as a reference physical system.
Quantum coherence relevant to biology always appears in the normal ambient at the normal temperatures in conjunction with a well defined energy flow. The scenario presented here show that the dynamical biological order in the living cell requires the presence of constant energy flow in fact the Feshbach resonance is related with a high energy quasi bound state degenerate with an high energy continuum of free particles. A lot of open problems have to be faced to answer the Erwin Schrödinger question: "What is life?" [

The temperature evolution of the Universe as a function of time in the early stage of the Universe after the Big Bang. The first BCS like phase transition occurring 10−12 yr after the Big Bang was the origin of nuclear matter as we know today. In this work we propose that by decreasing temperature around the boiling point of water, it is possible that a second BCS like phase transition occurred that was the cause of the origin of living matter as we know today.

What is the religion of Ron Paul? The details of Ron Paul's religion remains vague because Ron Paul almost never discusses his religion. In fact, when Ron Paul does speak about his religion, it typically is to express that he doesn't want to talk about it.
We came close to having Ron Paul open up about his religion in 2007 when the Ron Paul 2008 campaign responded as below on November 27, 2007 to our invitation for Congressman Paul to share his Christian testimony in response to these 30 questions:
"Hello, We would like to participate. I sent you Congressman Paul's statement of faith and statement on life and liberty. In response, I believe you sent us a questionnaire as the statements, I believe you said, did not fit your format. Please resend the questionnaire and I will forward it to the Congressman for completion and get it back to you on time.
Thank you."
Jeff Greenspan
Regional Campaign Coordinator
Ron Paul 2008
The questionnaire was resent the next day as requested but his campaign did not get back to us thereafter despite several reminders. This was not a big surprise since our questions are quite pointed as intended.
In October of 2011, we again invited Congressman Ron Paul, out of courtesy, to share his testimony as a Christian in response to a new set of 30 questions updated for the 2012 presidential race.
1. Are you a Christian?
Paul: (response pending)
2. When and how did you become a Christian?
Paul: (response pending)
3. How has becoming Christian changed you?
Paul: (response pending)
4. How would you define and describe your relationship with Jesus today?
Paul: (response pending)
5. In the past 12 months, how many hours have you read the Bible per week?
Paul: (response pending)
6. Which gift has the Holy Spirit given you, and what fruits has it borne?
Paul: (response pending)
7. What has been your greatest failure as a Christian?
Paul: (response pending)
8. What is the greatest challenge you face today as a Christian?
Paul: (response pending)
9. If you had to choose between God and country, which would you choose?
Paul: (response pending)
10. Whom do you think Jesus wants as our next President, and why?
Paul: (response pending)

That is easy to change, especially considering lack of a browser is probably a pretty big complaint about the nightlies. I'm sure we could put up a poll asking who immediately installs a browser after installing a nightly, and I imagine the results would be 90%+. The need for nightlies for the average user will probably also be greatly reduced when we actually have the ability to easily update an existing Haiku installation, something I hope is part of the package management solution. -- Regards, Ryan

Here's the question of the day, "My husband is addicted to porn, what should I do?"
Ouch! I am sorry to hear that. Right now there are many things that you can and should do. I would like to offer a few suggestions, but I want to acknowledge that there are no easy answers to your question.
First, you indicate that your husband is addicted pornography. While this may be the case, I would prefer we step back and consider the term addiction. Many people tell me that they are addicted to pornography, but when I assess their behaviors they don't really have an addiction to porn. An addiction to pornography generally has the following components:
- It is a compulsive act
- There is a recurrent failure to resist impulses to view pornography
- The behavior continues despite negative consequences
- Tolerance for the behavior increases
- They experience withdrawal symptoms
- Attempts to quit are unsuccessful
These are some of the signs you would look for in someone who has a pornography addiction. While you consider these signs, please be aware that most of the people I have worked with go back and forth between heavy involvement and minimal to no involvement. If you and your husband are talking about his involvement, I would recommend that you have him take the test found at GrowthClimate.com which will assess his level of involvement and offer free feedback. There is also a free assessment for you. This will help you better understand how his involvement is impacting you.
Second, I have worked with hundreds of men struggling with pornography. Most, but not all of the men I have worked with do NOT like pornography. This may sound strange to you, but I have heard over and over again from men that they hate pornography. They don't like the way it makes them feel. They feel guilt and shame. They feel bad that they keep letting their wives down.
Consider the following question from the "Assessing Pornography Addiction" test:
"I feel down and empty due to my involvement with porn."
Nearly 4250 men have answered this question and 57% of the men agreed with it. Unfortunately, many of them haven't discovered the right tools to succeed. They don't know where to turn for good help and as a consequence they hide their unhealthy habit for years. Their behavior hurts you and makes you feel hopeless and scared. You may find yourself asking questions like, "Is he going to start acting out in other ways?" or "Does he compare me to the women he looks at while viewing pornography?" These are the types of questions that run through the minds of the women with whom I work.
Fortunately, there is hope for you and your husband. However, it is critical to get the right information. If you want to seek professional help, might I suggest that you visit this website www.sash.net. Here you will find a list of clinicians who specialize in treating pornography and sexual addiction. The site has a list of professionals throughout the country.
You can also find help here on my website. Below is a short list of products that may be of help to you.
- Dealing with Your Partner's Sexual Addiction
- Strengthening Recovery Through Strengthening Marriage
- Treating Pornography Addiction (Book and Educational CD's)
I am convinced that with the right help and knowledge you and your spouse can heal. This won't be easy and it will require time and effort, but it can be done. I have seen couples heal from the pain created by pornography.
My hope is that your husband is willing to seek that help. Remember you cannot do his recovery for him. This concept is emphasized in the educational CD's "Dealing with Your Partner's Sexual Addiction"
Thanks for your question. Please feel free to write again or ask a follow-up question.
Best regards to you and your husband,
Dr. Kevin Skinner
P.S. I have decided that my blog will address questions just like this one. If you have a question and would like me to address it, please add your question below and I will do my best to address your questions.
2 Responses to My Husband Is Addicted to Porn
I was glad that this site was really the heart of the person dealing with addiction. You words can encourage them and give them information on how to deal with it.
That is why their are lots of website now that talks about sexual addiction that can be consider as one of the powerful tools for them to understand and encourage them to seek help.

I have been reading and commenting on articles and seeds about the Sandy Hook massacre. I have seen every and anything get blamed for the incident, and heard all the arguments for and against each one. Yet, each time that I bring up the " elephant" in the room, the debate breaks down, and I am either ignored or the total debate stops. What is being ignored is the racial aspects of this event and events very much like it. These crimes are overwhelmingly being enacted by young, white males.
I expect that many will rebut with the standard script of how many Black on Black crimes are attributed to gun usage, and somebody will quote the crime and murder statistics for Chicago. These are real issues that must be dealt with, and corrected, but they have very little to do with mass murder events such as Sandy Hook. A drug dealer, killing another drug dealer is not a gun man walking into a movie theatre and gunning down an audience.
Let us break down the main suspects being blamed for Sandy Hook, which I also believe play a major factor in these events happening, but are not the only reasons:
1) Gun control: Yes the access to assault rifles is a considerable factor, but there is not a racial restriction for the purchase of these weapons. There are a rainbow of diversity of gun owners who own, operate, and purchase these very weapons. Why then are only these young, white males utilizing them for these mass murder events. Here, inevitably, some one will mention the DC sniper, which was not a mass murder, but a multiple murder. John Allen Muhammad, would have been considered the most qualified gun owner, being ex-military, with an Expert Rifleman badge. Preventing him from purchasing an assault rifle would have caused the NRA fits.
2) Mental Health care: The state of the Mental health system in America is disgraceful. Yes, changes must be made! Assistance for families dealing with disabled, or mentally ill children needs to be reviewed and reinforced. Autism is not racially limited, and can effect all races. Most mental health disorders are not racially biased, or racially hereditary, and are equal opportunity afflictions. So why are mentally ill young, white males, so prone towards attempting and executing mass murder events, such as Sandy Hook? Demographically, there are more white people in America, and therefore a much higher level of mentally ill or mentally disabled people within the population will be white. There based upon demographics alone, there should be a proportional number of mass murders done by other races or ethnicities. So far, I have only found one that was done done by a young, white male, and that was Virginia Tech.
3) Violent Movies and Video Games: This is a part of the American culture. I personally do not believe that violent media has changed much in it's content, since the advent of movies and TV. If you are old enough to remember the old westerns, and war movies that were just as violent and ill considerate of human life, as the movies of today. Gunsmoke, which was one of my father's favorite shows, killed somebody, with a gun, on almost every episode. The violence in today's media is saturated, much more graphic and much more readily available. I cannot find that much of a fundamental difference between kids playing cowboys and Indians all day, and kids playing Black ops all day, except that one was done outside. The effects of the media are also not racially biased, and no one race or ethnicity has the monopoly on kids playing violent video games, or watching violent movies. So why do young, white males have the monopoly on these mass murder events?
There is a common factor for all of the attempts to rationalized and lay blame upon the how and why of these events, and it is being ignored. Why are we avoiding the issue? The last thing I am advocating is the immediate labelling of young white males as all being potential mass murders. That would be just as ridiculous as labeling all young, black males as gang members. Does that mean that we ignore the common factors of all these events? There is a reason that the the DC sniper was originally profiled as a lone, older, ex-military, white male, because the history of those that had committed that type of crime, had the majority of those factors in common.

- To search names use the ADJ[x] operator. It finds documents where search terms appear within x words of each other and in the same order. Where x is not specified, this proximity operator defaults to 1. This is particularly useful for names since it allows for middle initials.
- The search engine will return the portion of the page that contains your search terms. To view the entire page, click on View This Page in the gray search bar near the top of the page. You may also view the entire issue using View This Issue also located in the gray bar.
- Because this is an image database, expect some search results that do not match your search terms. The program may recognize the wrong term and retrieve a document that does not contain your terms.

text: Watch out Adrian Peterson, there's a new rehabilitation stud. South Carolina running back Marcus Lattimore suffered a catastrophic knee injury in an Oct. 27 game against Tennessee. Six days later, orthopedist James Andrews' team was completely rebuilding Lattimore's right knee, repairing the ACL, LCL and PCL. Lattimore, 21, was determined to turn the second major knee injury of his career into the next great comeback story. He's already gained 20 pounds of muscle and could play in 2013, Andrews says. "I want to be an inspiration," Lattimore told USA TODAY Sports. "To let people know that with hard work, and when you trust in God, you can come back from anything and do anything." Andrews says Lattimore is three months ahead of schedule on his rehab, and his work ethic has been on par with Peterson, the Minnesota Vikings running back and Andrews patient who came within 9 yards of the single-season rushing record after tearing his ACL the previous season. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2013/02/19/marcus-lattimore-rehab/1930751/

TOP STORY > >Sherwood fire board adds candidate
Leader staff writer
It wasnt the fact that the Sherwood Fire Board took about two hours to interview three applicants for the full-time Sherwood fire chief position that angered a number of the departments firefighters.
It was the 20 minutes the board spent interviewing a fourth candidate who was not on the agenda that had upset the group and caused one firefighter to demand that the board go ahead and interview the current head of the department, Chief Frank Hill, and the other three candidates the board had passed on at its previous meeting.
With the board committing at least a procedural mistake, if not a legal violation by bringing in a fourth candidate, Alderman Butch Davis was seeking help from the county judge to have a cooling-off period as allegations arose that the fire department may have misappropriated more than $3,600 in salaries.
After interviewing David Teague, a battalion chief from Memphis; Phillip Flynn, a former North Little Rock firefighter and a full-time lieutenant with the Sherwood Fire Department, and Andy Traffanstedt, the Gravel Ridge fire chief and a part-time captain with the Sherwood department another applicant, Alan Ford, was called into the boards executive session.
Ford is a former board member and currently a captain with the Little Rock Fire Department.
Soon after Fords interview, the board reconvened in public and with no fanfare said they would meet again at 7:30 p.m.
Tuesday at the fire station to discuss the 2009 budget and any decision they will make regarding to hiring a full-time chief.
The board then adjoined.
Firefighters and others tried to get an explanation as to why the board interviewed someone who was not on the list of final candidates.
Commissioner Mike Anderson said, Ford was not on the list, not on the agenda, and I feel it was wrong to have brought him in.
So why was Ford called in? Anderson said it was at the request of the board chairman Michael Dupslaff.
Commissioner Tom Brooks said, It was a courtesy to the chairman that we talked to Ford. Once he came in we could just tell him to leave, Brooks explained.
Dupslaff did not give the disgruntled firefighters any reason for why Ford was called in, only saying that the public would have input at Tuesdays meeting when the chiefs position comes up again on the agenda.
When asked then if Hill and the other applicants would get an interview since Ford did, Brooks said no.
At the boards previous meeting, Mayor Virginia Hillman tried to get the board to consider a letter she introduced calling for the board to stop its efforts to convert the department from a part-time chief to a full-time chief until Sherwood officials and residents could give input.
The board refused to take up the suggestion because it was not on the agenda, yet allowed a candidate not on the agenda Thursday night to be interviewed.
Also earlier in the week Alderman Butch Davis tried to talk to County Judge Villines, who appoints the fire board commissioners, to ask him to have the board halt the search for 30 to 60 days to allow everyone to calm down. But Villines was out of town. This whole thing is just snowballing out of control, Davis said.
He was also concerned about who the board is supposed to represent. If its the people of Sherwood, they arent listening, Davis said.
Then there are the allegations of improper salary payments that are coming to the boards attention. In approving its 2008 budget early last year, the board authorized hourly salary payments of $9.20, $10.20 and $11.20 to firefighters based on experience, rank and position.
But a number of firefighters received an hourly wage of $12.20 an hour, a dollar more than the board supposedly approved.
These extra payments total $3,625 which could make it a felony if an investigation shows criminal wrongdoing. At this point, the board has not asked for an investigation.
The fire department, which encompasses all of Sherwood, is not a municipal fire department but a fire-protection district department under the control of the county judge and the five-member board. The board members are appointed by the judge without any city input.
The board received eight resumes for the full-time position, including one from the current fire chief.
In a meeting earlier this month, the board narrowed down the field of applicants to Traffanstedt, Flynn and Teague.
According to his resume, Traffanstedt has been involved in fire service since 1982 and has worked with the Little Rock, Sherwood and Gravel Ridge fire departments. The Gravel Ridge Fire Department, like the Sherwood department, is under the control of the county.
Traffanstedt has been the Gravel Ridge fire chief since 1993 and is also the chief of the Pulaski County Hazardous Materials Response Team. He has a Firefighters III certification, as well as state and national certification as a paramedic.
In his application, Traffanstedt has asked for a guaranteed five-year contact, a take home department vehicle and to be allowed to appoint his own command staff.
Flynn is a long-time resident of Sherwood and has 28 years of public safety service, according to his resume. He also has a Firefighters III certification, and is also a certified fire arson investigator and Arkansas law enforcement officer.
Flynn has worked as the public- safety officer at Camp Robinson and spent 23 years with the North Little Rock Fire Department, reaching the rank of captain.
He has asked the board for a minimum of a two-year contract.
Teague says his background and education in emergency services has prepared him to lead the Sherwood department. As a battalion chief in Memphis, he is in a mid-level management position in a department that includes 1,700 people and 59 stations.
According to his resume, Teague has served as the director of emergency medical services for Cleburne Memorial Hospital in Heber Springs and spent 23 years with the Southbend Volunteer Fire Department in Lonoke County. He also owns and operates Klad Co., a consulting and inspection firm for large roofing systems, and David Teague Roofing Co. Both are in Jacksonville.
Teague has a bachelors degree in fire administration from the University of Memphis and has attended various courses at the National Fire Academy in Maryland.

Nokia N80 3G phone
Wi-Fi, 3G and three megapixels
I wasn't too impressed by the supplied headphones' audio quality, but as it is a combined headset I can forgive Nokia to a degree here. I'm not so sure about the over-the-head fit, but this is more of a matter of personal preference than bad design. There's a rather large piece of plastic which houses the microphone, but this appears to end up on your chest, too far away from your mouth in my view. There are an answer button and volume controls on the right-hand side of the dongle. The headset connects to the N80 via the Pop-Port.
Now, if you'd rather not use the supplied headset, then you'll be glad to know that Nokia bundles a 3.5mm audio jack adaptor with the N80. What I don't understand is why there has to be a rather large square bit of plastic around the round 3.5mm socket. You can connect any pair of headphones to this, but you won't have the ability to answer phone calls this way.
A charger is also supplied, but this is a new type of connector which is smaller than the traditional Nokia chargers. Fortunately, some genius at Nokia came up with the clever idea of supplying a small adaptor that allows you to use an old Nokia chargers with the N80.
Network providers like to customise their phones, and Orange has added a few extra features to the N80. The Orange Photography add-on is actually quite a clever feature, at least on a 3G phone with a decent camera. It allows you to upload your snaps to an online gallery and also order prints. Orange supplies a 30-day trial and you even get the first few prints free of charge.

Black Martha Jean
almost the perfect black jeans. it's so hard to find black jeans like these with a perfectly straight leg.
100% leather soft skinny belt. Great for round the waist or jeans. It's easy to twist and knot round. Would definately recommend.
So cool!
Don't be without your Knee high socks this fall. A leg flattering black is perfect for everyone. Wear with a cute mini skirt and boots.
I've recently gone off the traditional black bootcut work trousers and these work really well as a more modern replacement. They give a leaner silhouette than bootcut and aren't so horribly tight as skinnies.
I don't think I could ever wear this sequined bikini but that doesn't mean I can't love it!
A black mini dress that has sequined shoulders. Amazing.
One of these days I'm going to channel the Hamburglar and go out in my all black and white striped outfit. Head to toe. Head. To. Toe.
The classic black and white stripes. Throw on a light, bright, solid color cardigan over this and your ready to go.
Hot fun in the summertime.
Wonderfully over the top short shorts.
I've also seen this scarf in black and it's a toss up deciding which one I like more.
An adjustable waist belt that has a gunmetal clasp at the front of the belt. If you are a belt person this is a must have.
I obviously need this skirt. Has a zipper down the back.
high waist, acid wash, denim shorts. it's a hipster's dream!
these are the perfect basic knee boots.
black and gold will always look great together. this is a great shoe to pair with a christmas party dress.
i swear i just saw a designer dress really similar to this. i wish i could remember what designer! i really like the visible under skirt.
i love how classic these platform booties are. they look a bit like the calvin klein ones.
Black jeans that flare at the bottom. These look extremely comfortable.
if you're looking for straight leg black jeans, don't look any further. pant legs don't get much straighter than this.
I can't tell if this tank is too short too be a dress. Go for it. I love the fringe detailing on the front.
if you're looking to buy a pair of black pumps this winter, why not go for a trendy black lace one that's not too pricey? these are so sexy!
this is fierce. seriously bad ass. leather fringe skirt from topshop.
love the double peter pan collar. love the piping.
you really can't go wrong with these classic black riding boots from topshop. they'll go with everything.
the loose hem on this shirt reminds me of the casual, easy chic style you see all over southern california.
i love the look of a classic black trench. if i need a coat this winter, this is definitely the style i'm going for.
there's nothing innocent about this 'baby doll' dress from kate moss topshop. the bustier top is made from a leather like material. super hot and bothered.
Topshop accessories are often a step ahead of U.S. stores'. The deco swirl drop earrings are fantastic, affordable, and timeless - three great qualities, even in bargain buys!Tags: accessories, style, earrings, crystal, chandeliers, black, women, rhinestone, decoAdded 9 Years Ago from Topshop

BL-C30A is rated out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Have 3 of these, 5 years, no problems I had hoped for 3 years and mininal problems. Instead going on SIX years and zero, ziltch, nada any problems. None. The usual power outages never scrambled these units. Bought and setup three of these in early 2007. Setup was straighforward but do need to read and follow instructions. Motion detect and send pictures to mobile phone was not an original need back in 2007, but works fine now that I have compatible phone model. For one location where security was a mild concern, simply switched to wired and disable wireless option. Resolution is good for my needs, easy to pan and adjust remotely. The button on front of the unit will turn off the camera and physically roll the lense up behind the cover so impossible for a stealth user to override. Green light will illuminate agin if turned on remotely. If one of these dies, will not hesitate to replace with same unit or another Panasonic product. Realize no big deal for electronics to last a long time, but FIVE years, operating 24/7 with unfiltered 110V power? I am on my second alarm panel installed by a national security provider during the same time period. I give this product my highest rating.

YOU CAN BRIGHTEN OR DARKEN THE VIEW, HAVE THE STILL VIDEO PICTURE REFRESH EVERY 3 SECONDS WITH OUT THE PICTURE DISAPPEARING AND COMMING BACK TO THE SCREEN WITH THE NEW PICTURE VIEW. YOU CAN VIEW 4 SECURITY CAMERAS AT THE SAME TIME ON A CELL PHONE WHICH I STILL DO. OH YOU CAN ALSO USE THE ARROWS TO MOVE THE LENS OF THE CAMERA ON YOUR CELL PHONE TOO. I CAN BE IN ANOTHER PROVINCE IN CANADA AND STILL BE ABLE TO VIEW MY BLC-30 CAMERAS. I HAVE BEEN USING THESE CAMERAS NOW FOR 3 YEARS NOW AND MY OVERALL THOUGHT OF THIS CAMERA IS IT IS EASY TO SETUP FOR JUST THE INTERNET, BUT FOR PUTTING THE DESKTOP WINDOW ON THE CELL PHONE A LITTLE MORE IS NEEDED. THESE ARE ONE GREAT SECURITY CAMERA AND LOW COST IT WORKS GREAT WHEN YOU NEED IT AT ANYTIME.

I use the desktop window and the window that panasonic says to use. Just so that it is known it says that the desktop window can not be used on a cell phone, well you can. you also can darken or lighten the still picture, i use these features right now on my other cell phone from my work. I can view the inside of my house anytime when out camping.

Team PTG Announces a Four-Car Formula BMW USA Program
I apologize if this is a report...
Winchester, Va. (March 26, 2004) Tom Milner, owner of Prototype Technology Group, announced today a four-car program for the inaugural 2004 Formula BMW USA Championship. Based in Winchester, Va. the team boasts two of the six 2004 Formula BMW USA scholarship winners, Milners 18-year old son, Tom Milner, of Leesburg, Va. and Billy Johnson, 17, of San Clemente, Calif. Tom Sutherland, 15, of Los Gatos, Calif. will drive a third BMW FB2. Team PTG is in the process of finalizing a fourth driver.
Formula BMW USA was something of great interest in our house after the announcement at the USGP last September, said Milner. My son Tom began racing karts in 1999 and had gone to two racing schools last year. His birthday present this year was the trip to Valencia for the licensing and scholarship program in January. I was delighted he had been awarded a scholarship so it appears we have a driver in the family.
Tom and Billy got to know each other in Valencia and, in fact, shared a car for some of the time, continued Milner. They got along quite well and have shown me that they can act as teammates. That is fundamental to any teams success and something a team owner looks for.
All three new drivers became serious about karting some three years ago with Johnson realizing the most success to date. He was the 2003 Grand National Champion in the Super Stock CR125 shifter class and a Red Bull Stage-3 semi-finalist.
"I'm very excited to be racing Formula BMW USA this year," said Johnson. "The FB2 is great to drive and to be racing in front of F1 and Champ Car team owners is fantastic. I'm especially looking forward to be racing at Indy in front of thousands of enthusiastic fans. I'm thankful to PTG for giving me a fantastic opportunity. I can't think of a better scenario to be in for my first season in cars."
Sutherland echoes Johnsons sentiments. I feel this is an incredible opportunity to be one of the youngest race car drivers in the U.S, said the high school freshman. Most other 15 year olds get excited about new video games, but to be driving a Formula BMW is beyond exciting.
Racing with F1 and Champ Car at some of the most famous tracks in North America is very special, said the young Tom Milner. I have grown up around PTG and BMW and to be racing for both gives me a lot of confidence. I had a great time in Valencia and I got to see where I stood with other young guys at a similar point in their careers. Winning the scholarship doesnt mean the season will be easy. There will be very strong competition.Team PTG has a very long history with BMW, as they have been BMW of North Americas exclusively supported M3 racing team for the past nine years. Since 1995 Team PTG has won four sports car manufacturer championships for BMW, four team titles and three driver championships.
Although open-wheel racing is a departure for Team PTG it is a homecoming of sorts for owner Milner. The 30-year sports car racing veteran began his career managing teams that included a partnership with Bill Scott Racing that produced 10 Formula Vee, Super Vee and Formula Ford championships from 1967 to 1984.
Drivers who have raced for Tom Milner and PTG include Bobby Rahal, Paul Newman, Rick Mears, Pete Halsmer, Scott Goodyear, Arie Luyendyk and Scott Sharp.
The teams first test will be at Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Fla. on April 12 and 13. The opening round of the 2004 Formula BMW USA Championship will be on May 27-31 at Lime Rock Park, Conn.

Yea, I'm excited to see them run at the IMS during the F1 weekend. The engines output just 140HP, but the cars only weight 1K pounds. I wish they would run w/ the sportscars series at MidOhio instead of the Formula Ford series.

Are you going to be at Indy? If so, could you tell us more about the cars? One thing I'd be interested to know is if all the cars have the same livery or are they allowed to have different sponsor liveries (and if there would be any way B'fest could get on a car )

The Local Choice for Quality Medical Imaging
Each day of the week Computerized Medical Imaging (CMI) can be found making a positive impact on the health of Western Wisconsin. CMI is a comprehensive medical imaging company that has been a member of the Chippewa Valley business community for more than 25 years. Our Mobile and In-House services allow patients to receive the care they need directly where they live in rural Wisconsin or here in Eau Claire. Our Imaging Center in Eau Claire provides a comfortable environment to perform ultrasound, x-ray, bone density, and digital mammogram exams. Ultrasound and digital mammography are accredited by the American College of Radiology (ACR) assuring you the highest quality exam.
CMI is a unique option for patients and physicians alike
Our clinic in Eau Claire is a comfortable setting for patients to receive personal care. Patients enjoy friendly service and note the contrast to visits at a typical radiology department. Physicians receive prompt results in order to better serve their patients. Exams are read by a local radiologist group on a daily basis. Reports can typically be received the next day.

Virgin, which previously said it would operate three flights a week between Brisbane and Abu Dhabi by February, has decided not to exercise a purchase option on a sixth Boeing 777 – the jumbo that it flies to Abu Dhabi and Los Angeles.
The airline would have to buy or lease another wide-body aircraft or remove one from service on the Los Angeles route to meet the commitment to Etihad – options that are not under consideration, sources say.
It is understood Virgin has no plans to add another 777 to its fleet and will not contemplate pulling aircraft off the profitable trans-Pacific services, so it will not be starting the slated Brisbane service in the forseeable future.
Virgin chief
The Boeing 777-300ER (extended range) aircraft flown by Virgin Australia sells for about $US300 million, while the A330-300 costs about $US222.5 million.
Virgin's move to focus its efforts and resources on the trans-Pacific, trans-Tasman and domestic market comes after industrial relations action at rival Qantas boosted passenger loads in recent months.
The delay in adding more capacity to Abu Dhabi is unlikely to sit well with Etihad, which had been waiting for the Brisbane flights to take its own offering out of the Queensland city to a daily service.
"No final decision has been made on the Brisbane to Abu Dhabi route,'' said Virgin spokeswoman Danielle Keighery. "However, we will continue to monitor the market."
Irrespective of Virgin's plans, it is understood Etihad intends to offer daily services out of Brisbane.
Missing the February launch date in Brisbane is the first noticeable glitch in Mr Borghetti's rapid strategic overhaul of the airline. Product and brand changes, including a nationwide revamp of airport lounges and aircraft interiors, have progressed on or ahead of schedule.
In addition to the Etihad tie-up, Virgin has forged strategic alliances with premium carriers including Air New Zealand to serve the trans-Tasman route, Delta for the trans-Pacific and US domestic routes and Singapore Airlines for Asia.
The Etihad link in Mr Borghetti's "virtual international network" was primarily to serve London and Europe – where travel demand has been hit by economic turmoil.
Analysts in Virgin's home market have raised earnings targets for this year and beyond in recognition of the extra business won in the short and medium term during months of strikes at Qantas and the two-day grounding of its entire fleet.
Merrill Lynch raised its estimate for 2012 underlying profit before tax by 52 per cent to $90 million, and its 2013 estimate by 12 per cent, citing higher passenger volumes and yields from winning more of the lucrative domestic business market.
"Qantas's pain is Virgin's gain," said Merrill analysts led by Matthew Spence.
"While still early in their campaign to win a greater share of corporate revenue, Virgin appears to be gaining some traction."
JPMorgan raised its 2012 earnings per share estimate by 54 per cent, saying in a note last week that stronger passenger loads are "likely to continue for the remainder" of the first half.
"However, retaining corporate segment share at current levels may be challenging longer term given Qantas's network advantage," said JPMorgan analyst Scott Carroll.
JPMorgan said international loads at Virgin of 82.2 per cent in September suggested the airline's long-haul operations were performing well, with loads to Abu Dhabi tracking towards the 80 per cent target most airlines consider the benchmark for profitable routes.

NY Daily News op-ed: "Those labeling Sonia Sotomayor a radical don't know her at all"
Blog ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF
From a May 28 New York Daily News op-ed by Robert Morgenthau:
No sooner had President Obama announced his nomination of Court of Appeals Judge Sonia Sotomayor than conservative partisans began calling for her defeat. These so-called pundits have pronounced her a "radical," an "activist," part of the "far left," an "affirmative action case" and, most astoundingly, a "racist." We were not long left in suspense as to whether this administration's judicial nominees can expect to be vetted with objectivity and due civility.
I have known Judge Sotomayor for decades, and I know how absurd these charges are. I doubt that anyone will be fooled by them, but let me state for the record my views on her nomination.
Assistant District Attorney Sotomayor was no "liberal." Rather, she was a tough and effective prosecutor. Young prosecutors are sometimes picked on by judges and defense attorneys, but no one successfully pushed this ADA around. Within a short time she had come to the attention of trial division executives as someone who was a step ahead of her colleagues, one of the brightest, an immediate standout who was marked for rapid advancement.
The judge's work since she left this office confirms that she is a strong champion of the law. In particular, she has served with distinction on what I consider to be the second most important appellate court in the world, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. To be sure, she is in favor of civil rights, in the sense that she believes there should be fair treatment for all. But that is, of course, the law. And she understands poverty, and does seem willing to accept government action that provides a safety net to the poor. But that is not exactly "radical."

In this paper, we investigate periodic solutions of linear and nonlinear discrete Volterra equations of convolution or non-convolution type with unbounded memory. For linear discrete Volterra equations of convolution type, we establish Fredholm's alternative theorem and for equations of non-convolution type, and we prove that a unique periodic solution exists for a particular bounded initial function under appropriate conditions. Further, this unique periodic solution attracts all other solutions with bounded initial function. All solutions of linear discrete Volterra equations with bounded initial functions are asymptotically periodic under certain conditions. A condition for periodic solutions in the nonlinear case is established. © 2003 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

i like a good beer buzz from time to time before I paddle out. Usually end up burning the booze off pretty quick. kind of like rocket fuel i guess. never really surfed full on drunk.... at least i don't remember if i did. That's the irish in me.
I don't like surfing wasted, but it's fun to surf with a pretty good buzz when the waves are just ok, it's summer time, hanging with friends on the beach, late in the day... especially if there are people in your group actually drunk and don't surf--best time to talk someone into trying it out. Endless laughs for everybody.
i surfed hungover a lot in the past. the cold water definetly helps and gets rid of it. I usually chug 2-3 cups of water before I go out with a small bite to eat and after the session I am good to go, along with a nap, and more food...and maybe some advil and ice water ;)
Where I live drinking and surfing go hand in hand. The post or pre surf beer in the parking lot is a rite of passage for the local crew and an honor for the white boy transplant. I try to avoid the pre-surf beer but sometimes you just can't. When the local heavy says "have a beer before you paddle out" you have a beer(s). Or this weekend surfed the early afternoon session... drank my part of an 18er in the parking lot... realized I was too trashed to get home... had to do the PM session to sober up... put a whole new spin on surfing. 3-4 ft barreling waves on a full tide. Geeking every time I took off on a wave or every paddle out with my buddies. Luckily we had the conditions wired from our 3 hr session earlier and it didn't turn out to be the flail fest I had anticipated. Awesome but probably won't try to do that one again.Quote:
I know guys who would drink a 6 pack and paddle out to outer reefs. I would sit in the car and sip on a 22oz. silver bullet just to get the jitters out and loosen up. Always helps to have a cooler in the trunk when you're surfing solo at a localized spot. you make friends real quick
Ive surfed hungover many of times surfed hungover as HELL during hurricane Igor in Rhodie head and a half to double overhead. Wasnt one of my greatest ideas. took a few beatings that day.
Surfing with a hangover doesn't sound fun at all. Surfing drunk sounds like a pretty dangerous move if you ask me. The ocean doesn't take kindly to overconfidence.
it gets me stoked to paddle out on a nice clean chest high day after killing half a bottle of rum, hell after killing some rum i paddle out at night for a few waves and have the time of my life
surf? I can't even swim...
Oh man Trump Marina...........four to five hours........head over to States or Crystals.........smoke butts with the homies on the boards.....Paddle out.........If you are more than buzzed, you are going to have a BAD time surfing....But if the water is cold it will sober you up a bit.....And yes cold water will make your hangover much better. One time hahaha I nodded out in the water....fell right of my board and came to in the water. Yeah......Chasing seagulls is great when you are inebriated.......Get all low on cloudy summer days and just walk the water's edge....give weird looks to the beach sitters......do a homeless-like stroll down the beach..Give them something to look at. Don't care what people think........Be a show......Dudes, remember some day you'll be at your death bed, and you'll think back......HAVE MEMORIES....GOOD TIMES........Be different. You don't have to sit at a desk staring at a computer screen all day. Remember some of y'all follow patterns, you don't have to have kids and families.....it's not scripted. Be free if you want........drink cheap vodka.
I'm not advocating this but opiates will completely cure your hangover. Gone......

Fair People: Frank Bruce, Bondville Fair
09/10/05 12:00AM By Susan Keese
| Download MP3
(Host) One of the oldest fair traditions is the ox pull. It's easy to imagine Vermont's first settlers, who had little else, vying for bragging rights over whose animals could draw the biggest load.
Frank Bruce is a retired farmer from Wallingford. He judges ox pulls at several Vermont fairs. We found him near the pulling track at the far end of the Bondville Fairgrounds.
We continue our series on "Fair People..."
(Bruce) "My name is Frank Bruce and I'm the judge of the ox pull. I really have draft horses but I come down here to help the Bondville Fair out and the next thing I knew I was running the ox pull. I do Rutland Fair too. I do the horse ox and pony pull, and I don't get paid for it, I just volunteer."
(Loudspeaker) "Okay, we're gong to get the ox pull underway "
(Bruce) "They used to do a lot of farm work with oxen. When I was a young boy, seven or eight years old, they had a lot of oxen back then. And oxen went out like horses did when tractors come. They found out oxen were too slow and then they used horses. And then they find out they were too slow and now they use tractors -- and bigger and bigger.
"Everybody likes to see ox pull. A lot of people say they are dumb but they're not too dumb. They know who owns 'em and what they're saying to them.
"We got some black ones over here that probably weigh close to sixty-hundred, the team, and they'll be driving them with just a stick.
"They are cattle, you know. They were born a bull and they're castrated and they're steers then, oxen. A lot of 'em castrate 'em and raise 'em as steers for meat. But these guys have trained them to pull on a boat.
"That's a stone boat sittin' right out there with a hook on each end. We'll put blocks on that and they got to pull it six feet. They'll have a chain down between 'em and they'll have a man hook it on that hook."
(Sound of oxen being chained.)
"Hup, hup - you got it, full pull."
(Bruce) "And we'll keep loading the boat and loading the boat and the last team that moves it the farthest will be the winner."
(Loudspeaker) "Okay we just added another 880 pounds to the boat, that brings it to 4,080 pounds...."
(Driver, straining) "All right, get in there. Bill Bart, get in there."
(Loudspeaker) "Sixty-two inches and the winning team right there!"
(Sound of applause.)
(Bruce) "I enjoy it. You see a lot of people, you know. You'll see them now and you won't see them till a year from now. You know, there's a lot of nice people around fairs, especially with the horses and the oxen."
(Host) Our story on Frank Bruce was produced by VPR's Susan Keese.

Rauf Nayemi had to doublecheck his "Lucky for Life" scratch card at the Washington State Lottery office. He couldn't believe he'd really won $52,000 a year for life.
Nayemi, 40, an immigrant from Afghanistan, is the first "Lucky for Life" winner since the game was changed from a drawing to scratch tickets on April 27.
He'll get $39,000 a year after federal taxes, said Liz Anderson, the lottery's communications manager.
"Today is the most exciting day for me," Nayemi said Friday at the lottery office.
Nayemi said his first reaction was to call his mother in Lacey, but he told her the win was not yet official.
He called her back after officials verified the ticket.
Nayemi says he plans to pay for his 13-year-old daughter's braces and pay off his house.
He'll be able to help relatives in Afghanistan, too, if they need it.
"If you have $10 to share with someone, you would share it," he said. "I want to help my family."
Nayemi moved to the United States 22 years ago when the Soviet Union was invading his homeland.
Now single, he also hopes his good luck will help him socially.
"So, if I ask any woman out now, is she going to say yes?" he asked with a grin.

Warms the cockles of my heart, a story like this one.
The fact they need to verify these tickets means someone knows the location of where these winning tickets are , we would be a fool to think someone didnt. Makes me think what do these lottery offices really now. I am on the prowl in Illinois for the last Merry Millionaire grand prize ticket and every time I get a response from them they are like " The chances are the ticket has been found just not redeemed" Are they telling me I shouldnt waste my money?
Long live "Lucky for Life" ... and the guy who won!

It's possible that the recent patch for HTTP header parsing would solve this
problem, but given the behaviour you're describing it seems unlikely to have
an impact. Still, it may be worth running a test run of htdig using just
a few of the problem documents as your start_url. If you run with -vvv,
I'd be interested in seeing what it's picking up for the Content-Type header.

I didn't see anything suspect above, but I'm curious about the proxy
server you're running on your local host. It seems that htdig is indexing
HTML files as though they were plain text, not HTML. I'm wondering if
it's possible that your proxy server is messing up the Content-Type
headers from your web servers, or your web servers themselves aren't
putting out the right headers.
I tried a search for "star wars" on your site, as you suggested, and it
turned up lots of pages. Most of these were plain text. Of the HTML
ones, some of the URLs ended in .html, most in .htm, and three just with
"/". All the .htm files had the problem, and none of the .html ones did.
Strangely, 2 of the 3 URLs ending in "/" had the problem.
In any case, the first thing I'd check is to make sure your proxy server
and your web servers are set up to return the right MIME type for .htm.
Next, for any documents that have the problem, have a look at what
"htdig -vvv" is picking up for their Content-Type header. If it's
text/plain, or text/* other than text/html, that's the cause of the
problem. You may also want to temporarily disable the http_proxy
attribute, if you can, just to see if it's the proxy server that's
the problem.

Gadkari under fire, RSS asks him and BJP to hold on
BJP chief Nitin Gadkari won't quit now. A day after BJP patriarch LK Advani backed him, RSS brass firmed up that line after a series of confabulations with Gadkari. Shekhar Iyer & Pradip Kumar Maitra report. BJP members 'defenders' of corruption: Cong | Gadkari scraps Delhidelhi Updated: Oct 26, 2012 14:42 IST
BJP chief Nitin Gadkari won't quit now. A day after BJP patriarch LK Advani backed him, RSS brass firmed up that line after a series of confabulations with Gadkari.
As other BJP leaders watched charges flying thick and fast against the party chief, RSS leaders led by Mohan Bhagwat and Bhaiyya Joshi apparently advised Gadkari to hold on. On his part, he too would rather dig in his heels, put up a "brave front" to fend off charges against him till any official probe actually established his guilt.
Gadkari stayed put in Nagpur for an extra day, cancelling his appointments in Delhi, talking to RSS heads at length since Wednesday night.
Adopting a "wait-and-watch" policy, RSS leaders wanted to see the shape of the war engulfing Gadkari being played out and how far the UPA machinery would go after him. By that time, they expect the polls to be completed in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat in December, and they could think of a contingency plan, RSS sources said.
RSS insiders said Gadkari apprised the Sangh leaders about the "whole" controversy and even expressed his desire to resign, if necessary.
The dilemma before the RSS centred on the fact that it had anointed Gadkari as BJP chief in 2010.
His "hasty exit" without a clear understanding among RSS and BJP leaders would undermine its own standing, sources added.
Consequently, there's no ready "exit plan" for Gadkari, RSS sources said, though a rethink on his second term from January next could not be ruled out "if the need so arises".
Meanwhile, a day after she joined Advani in backing Gadkari, leader of opposition in Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj told election rallies in Himachal Pradesh that "when Congress leaders' faces are blackened by scams, they accuse Gadkari".

Rancho Simi introduces new Oak Park planners
About 40 people participated in a Rancho Simi Recreation and Park District election on Jan 25 to select members for the Oak Park Recreation and Park Planning Committee.
Rancho Simi manages parks and recreational activities in Simi Valley and Oak Park.
The advisory committee meets quarterly at the community center on Kanan Road to advocate for Oak Park residents and address park planning, development and recreational programming within the unincorporated county region.
The committee has seven members: one appointed by the Oak Park MAC, one appointed by Oak Park Unified School District and five elected residents.
In the past all five elected members were selected at once, but Rancho Simi officials have decided to stagger the elections, with three members elected one year and two the following year.
Since all five members were elected Jan 25, the two elected individuals receiving the lowest number of votes will serve oneyear terms. Eight candidates ran for the five available seats.
Susan Bender, Lenore Lewis and Derek Ross received a majority of the votes.
Drew Fine and Michael Sklar, who received fewer votes, will serve a one-year term with the option to run again next year.
Lewis said she's honored to have been reelected.
Last year the committee participated in the opening of a new splash pad and Oak Canyon Dog Park.
"I look forward to continuing to work with community members regarding concerns they have with maintenance and programs,"
Lewis said.
As a member of the committee, Lewis said she came to appreciate the hard work of Rancho Simi officials and employees.
"We are fortunate indeed to have the beautiful parks and trails that we all enjoy," she said.
Lewis said new programs introduced at the Oak Park recreation center have been successful and attendance is increasing.
Incumbent Fine, who has been involved with youth sports and teaches classes at the recreation center, said "Rancho Simi is a fabulous organization.
Other candidates, who were not elected, were Ross Bolton, Ronald Rishe and Harry Medved.
