HUD's Public Housing Program
What is Public Housing: Public housing was established to provide decent and safe rental housing for eligible low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. Public housing comes in all sizes and types, from scattered single family houses to highrise apartments for elderly families. There are approximately 1.2 million households living in public housing units, managed by some 3,300 HAs. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administers Federal aid to local housing agencies (HAs) that manage the housing for low-income residents at rents they can afford. HUD furnishes technical and professional assistance in planning, developing and managing these developments. article
Section 8 Program Background Information
The Section 8 Program was authorized by Congress in 1974 and developed by HUD to provide rental subsidies for eligible tenant families (including single persons) residing in newly constructed, rehabilitated and existing rental and cooperative apartment projects. article
Funding and Investment In Infrastructure by: Micheal A. Pagano
Funding and investing in infrastructure are not only about finding adequate resources to meet the demands of the citizenry. Rather, funding and investing in infrastructure are parts of a larger governmental process involving the assessment of demand for the facility, estimating and measuring consumption of the facility, and assessing the performance or condition of existing facilities. Finding resources for infrastructure, then, is part and parcel of government planning and budgeting, functions and exercises that require a thorough assessment of infrastructure need, use, and demand. articleTen Lessons for Policy and Practice

Sputum stain for mycobacteria
Primary tabs
Sputum stain for mycobacteria is a test to check for a type of bacteria that cause tuberculosis and other infections.
Alternative Names
Acid fast bacilli stain; AFB stain; Tuberculosis smear; TB smear
How the Test is Performed
This test requires a sample of sputum.
- To do this, you will be asked to cough deeply and spit the substance that comes up from the lungs (sputum) into a container.
- You may be asked to breathe in a mist of salty steam. This makes you cough more deeply and produce sputum.
- If you still do not produce enough sputum, you might have a bronchoscopy.
The test sample is examined under a microscope. Another test, called a culture, is done to confirm the results. A culture test takes a few days to get results. This sputum test can give your doctor a quick answer.
How to Prepare for the Test
It can help to drink a lot of fluids the night before the test. It makes the test more accurate if it is done first thing in the morning.
How the Test Will Feel
There is no discomfort, unless a bronchoscopy needs to be performed.
Why the Test is Performed
The test is performed when the doctor suspects tuberculosis or other Mycobacterium infection.
Normal Results
Results are normal when no mycobacterial organisms are found.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Abnormal results show that the stain is positive for:
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis
- Mycobacterium avium-intracellular
- Other mycobacteria or acid-fast bacteria
There are no risks, unless bronchoscopy is performed.
To increase the accuracy of this test, it is sometimes done three times, often three days in a row.
More sophisticated tests are sometimes used to stain sputum for mycobacteria. Check with your health care provider to see if these are available in the laboratory.

CINCINNATI -- Considering what the Dallas Cowboys had to deal with Saturday, what they accomplished Sunday can be seen as a season-saving victory.
A practice squad player is gone. His teammate, a popular player in the locker room, is in jail and charged with manslaughter. The Cowboys were told about the tragic incident just before leaving for a game with playoff implications.
Dallas won somehow, beating the Cincinnati Bengals 20-19 on Sunday afternoon at a dreary Paul Brown Stadium. Dan Bailey's 40-yard field goal at the final gun won it for the Cowboys, who are still alive for a playoff berth with three games remaining in their season.
What it means: The Cowboys (7-6) have kept their playoff hopes alive and continue to buy in to what coach Jason Garrett is talking about, blocking out the noise surrounding the team and focusing on winning one game at a time.
For their fallen teammate: The Cowboys played this game for practice squad linebacker Jerry Brown. He was killed Saturday morning in a car crash involving teammate Josh Brent, who was charged with intoxication manslaughter after what Irving, Texas, police say was a drunken-driving accident. Brown's jersey was laid out on the bench during the game, and there was a moment of silence in Paul Brown Stadium. After the game, outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware carried Brown's jersey off the field.
Run of the season: Starting running back DeMarco Murray's 6-yard run on a third-and-5 from the Bengals' 30 gave the Cowboys a needed first down and kept a drive alive that would end on Bailey's field goal. Murray dove for the first-down marker, stretching the ball out. A review clearly showed he had the first down.
Injuries: The Cowboys lost cornerback Morris Claiborne to a facial laceration with 11:56 to play in the third quarter. Claiborne was down for several minutes before he walked off the field holding a towel to his chin area. He did not return. Anthony Spencer left the game briefly to get an IV. Ware (left arm), Nate Livings (undetermined), Ernie Sims (undetermined) and Dez Bryant (left hand) left briefly with injuries. But safety Gerald Sensabaugh played with what appeared to be a leg injury.
Tackle rotation: Doug Free started at right tackle, but he was in a rotation with Jermey Parnell for the game. Free was penalized for holding; Parnell was not flagged. It was an interesting move by the Cowboys, who seem to be admitting -- at least by their actions -- that Free's struggles are so serious he needs to either be benched or rotated. However, Free was the right tackle on the last two offensive possessions.
What's next? The Pittsburgh Steelers make their first visit to Cowboys Stadium, and you can bet there will be plenty of black and gold jerseys in the crowd.

Investor wants Apple to distribute cash
NEW YORK — With its annual meeting looming and its stock on the decline, Apple is facing a rebellion from an influential investor who wants the company to stop stockpiling cash and give it to shareholders instead.
Greenlight Capital said Thursday that it is suing Apple in a New York federal court over the company's proposal to make it more difficult for it to issue preferred stock. David Einhorn, who heads the investment fund, said the proposal would close down one avenue for Apple to reward shareholders with more cash.
Apple is still the world's most valuable company, but its stock has lost 35 percent of its value since September, as it's become obvious that its once-rapid growth has slowed down. The company is fabulously profitable, and Wall Street wants the company to share more of that money with its shareholders rather than tucking it away in low-yielding bank accounts.
"Apple has $145 per share of cash on its balance sheet. As a shareholder, this is your money," Einhorn said in a letter to the company. He has a history of criticizing companies publicly.
In a statement Thursday, Apple said its management and board continue "active discussions" about what to do with the money, and it will take Einhorn's proposal into consideration.
Its $137 billion in cash makes up nearly a third of Apple's stock market value. Shares of the Cupertino, Calif., company closed on Thursday at $468.22, up $13.52.
Corporations normally don't hoard cash the way Apple does. They keep enough on hand for immediate needs, and either invest the rest in their operations or hand it out to shareholders in the form of dividends or stock buybacks. If they need more cash for, say, an acquisition, they borrow it.
Einhorn told CNBC on Thursday that Apple was acting like his grandmother "Roz," who grew up during the Great Depression. People who've experienced financial trauma, he said "sometimes feel like they can never have enough cash."

Bike users fear new cycle lanes proposed for Wanstead will not improve safety unless drivers change their behaviour.
Lanes could be introduced in Cambridge Park, between Blake Hall Road and St Mary's Avenue, to link with existing ones leading to the Green Man roundabout.
It is hoped they will encourage people not to cycle on pavements, but they will only be 'advisory', which means drivers can still use them, including for parking.
And a cycling campaigner warned this poses a significant hazard.
Chris Elliot, 57, of Wanstead Park Avenue, is a member of the Cycling Liaison Group.
He said: "If the cycle lanes are properly designed, they can be of assistance, particularly to less experienced cyclists.
"However, because it is not illegal for cars to park in them the danger comes with getting around those cars.
"What you don't want is to keep swinging out into a stream of traffic – sometimes it is best to ride in a straight line from A to B out of the lane - motorists need to understand that, rather than get annoyed by cyclists."
Tom Ali, of shop Bike Trax, regularly cycles to work.
He said: "I don't think they will make much difference. The lanes would be better put on the pavement, but that would probably annoy a lot of pedestrians.
"What does need to change is motorists attitudes to cyclists. I have been cycling in the forest before and cars have just pulled out on me."
It is estimated the lanes will cost around £8,000, funded by Transport for London.
A council report said: "The provision of cycle lanes will have the potential to reduce the level of illegal cycling on the footways of Cambridge Park, further enhancing the quality of life of residents and other footway users."
The proposals are due to be discussed by councillors on Monday at the Area One Committee meeting in Wanstead Church School.
Officers have recommended the scheme be approved.

Message from the Gotingco Family to the NZ public
Message from Mr Antonio Gotingco, the husband of Blessie Gotingco.
I can't describe how awful the past few days have been for our family.
We are taking one step at a time.
We would like to thank our countrymen (New Zealand) for all of the support, sympathies, kind words and love.
People have reached out to us from across the country, people we have never met and we are so grateful and overwhelmed by the kindess and the outpour of support.
My wife is a very god fearing , kind , generous, loving and caring human being. She is a very good wife, mother and grandmother. A good sister and a good friend and so much that I can't even begin to describe.
She is the light of our home and without her we will be lost in darkness.
Right now we are just trying to pretend that everything is ok but deep inside we are broken hearted.
We have been robbed, she is gone too soon.
We were neighbours in the Phillipines, and we grew up together, I knew her since we were in primary school and she was a classmate of my sister. We have been married for 30 years. She was 20 when we became sweethearts. She was a wonderful wife and friend to me. She was my bestfriend.
Once Blessie has been cremated we will place her ashes at the altar at St Marys Church, Onewa with a photo of Blessie. Anyone is welcome to come and pay their respects.
After that we will hold a public funeral service a requiem mass, everyone is welcome to come.
We would like to thank so many people, the neighbours who have bought us food and flowers and condolences. The New Zealand Police for being very supportive and very efficient, they have been with us from day one. I think they are the world's finest.
We would also like to thank the Filipino community here and our friends and relatives back home in Cebu.
We also want to thank our friends and family and all of the people that we personally don't know for all of their the prayers.
Blessie is coming home now and we will cope the best way we can.
Thank you

The first thing I wondered was 'who irons his shirts?'
When Joseph Kony stepped out of the jungle and into a clearing in eastern Congo, he looked almost debonair in his smartly-pressed white suit. A small army of pint-sized soldiers trailed behind him, hair tousled into dreadlocks, feet flopping in Wellington boots. One or two even cracked a grin, but Kony's face was stone. An overlord in his forest kingdom, the rebel leader seemed unnerved by the sight of strangers.
That was in 2006. I became one of the few journalists to meet the founder of the Lord's Resistance Army during one of his sallies from the bush to engage in an ultimately futile dance of peace talks with elders from his native northern Uganda.
Having spent six months tracking him for a book I was writing, I felt a curious pang of nostalgia when I once again saw his face leering out of StopKony2012, the viral video. Read more

- Belknap Independent Business Alliance would like to thank you for supporting the "Buy Local" movement with us since 2008. From it's inception, BIBA's goal has been to strengthen the Lakes Region economy through business memberships and educating the public to the importance of supporting locally owned businesses. Today, there is strength in the promotion of buying and supporting local and can be seen in advertising and economic growth.
- The Board of Directors made a difficult decision and BIBA will no longer be an active organization as of December 31, 2015. We are fortunate to have many strong organizations, such as Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce, Belknap EDC, American Independent Business Alliance and others that further support the importance of supporting local businesses.
Again, thank you and keep supporting LOCAL!
All the best in 2016

People worry about over-sharing location from mobiles, study finds experiments like 'Please Rob Me' indicate that what people reveal via location-sharing apps could potentially be harmful to them – and survey finds concerns among users.
More than half of people with geolocation-capable mobile devices worry about "loss of privacy" from using their location-sharing features, a survey has found – even though location-sharing apps such as FourSquare and Gowalla have millions of users checking in every day.
Among UK respondents, 52% said they were "very or extremely concerned" about loss of privacy from using location-sharing applications – even though the same proportion said that they geotag photos, indicating where they were taken, when uploading them to the internet.
The survey, commissioned by security company Webroot, interviewed 1,500 owners of devices with geolocation capabilities, including 624 people in the UK.
Yet other data shows that there are more than 1m lonely hearts now looking for location-based love via an iPhone application, and touching two million users checking-in with Foursquare, sharing whereabouts is the social currency du jour.
But that can be risky, as a trio of developers showed earlier this year, grabbing the headlines when they launched Please Rob Me, a live stream of people sharing their location on Twitter, the site playing on the fact these people were out of their homes. After doing what it set out to do – bring attention to the risk associated with location sharing – the stream was turned off.
Yet FourSquare and Gowalla have continued their upward trajectory of users, investors and commercial partners, such as Dominos Pizza, the Huffington Post, MTV and the Wall Street Journal.
But according to David Bennett, director for Webroot in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, "It's not about securing the hardware anymore, it's about securing the person as mobile internet-connected devices become widespread." He reiterates the challenges associated with attitudes towards publishing personal information online: "If you look over the last year, it takes about a year for people to be educated about putting stuff on Facebook – I think it'll take that same amount of time for geolocation applications."
This, Bennett says, gets to the nub of the concern: "A lot of people don't necessarily know what they do or what the implications are of these services. Of the half that thought there was a problem, how many people know that the pictures they're taking can be geotagged? Say if you move into a new house, and you say 'Here's a picture of my house', you then take a picture of you and your family on holiday – this is where cybercrime really expands. What's to stop a certain segment of the marketplace burgling your house? That's the challenge as we go forward."
"I think it's the new version of the telephone directory," Bennett says of the presence of food chains on Foursquare. "Can you be sure the company you're interacting with is really the company? That's one of the biggest challenges. when you rang them up you knew it was them – if it's online how can you be sure? But that's the way the business marketplace is going to go – the next generation of bringing people to the doorstep."
And to the doorstep goods and services will come. Skout is a location-based "social dating application" that connects singletons within metres or miles of your exact location. Last week Skout welcomed both profitability and its one millionth user. But news like this is anathema to the cause of "securing the person". Bennett continues the refrain: "When you're online it's so easy to pretend to be someone you're not. Everyone's hidden behind the keyboard if you start going into some of these dating areas.
"There are certain parts of our information that should always be private. It comes down to people understanding what they're doing."
The research
Webroot commissioned a survey of 1,645 social network users (including 624 UK-based) who own geolocation-ready mobile devices on June 7 and June 8 2010. - 39% (around 600 of the sample) of mobile device users use location-tracking applications on their mobile phone – 73% of those use a "geo-tracking application" to do so – Of this 73%, more than a quarter used location-based services to share their whereabouts with "strangers" and 14% use them to meet new people – 55% of respondents said they worry over loss of privacy incurred from using geolocation data – One in 11 respondents have used geolocation applications to meet a stranger, either digitally or in person. This is predominantly within the 18-29 age group – 64% have accepted a friend request from a stranger – 41% are "aware or extremely concerned" about letting "potential burglars know when they are not at home" – In the UK, 46% of women are "highly concerned" about "letting a stalker know where they are," compared to 27% of men – 52% of UK respondents tag their whereabouts in a photograph online – In the past year, 30% of UK respondents have shared their geographical location with "people other than their friends"

We are nearing the end of the season of the Great Mentioning, with murmurs of a vice presidential pick by Mitt Romney in the next few weeks, and possibly sooner. Will it be Tim Pawlenty, Bobby Jindal or Rob Portman? Or maybe Condoleezza Rice, despite her consistent declarations that she has no interest? The media, and to some extent the public, are focused on who Romney will choose. A better question is: what is Romney's vision for the office of the vice president, and how does his running mate plan to exercise the enormous powers of that office?
If you watched the recent HBO comedy series "Veep," you might conclude that vision and expectations don't matter because the vice president is an irrelevant player in the governing game, or relevant only for comedic purposes. Indeed, Vice President Biden has contributed from time to time to the image of the vice presidency as a source of entertainment.
The image of the vice president as comic relief is as old as the republic. The first vice president, John Adams, famously described the job as "the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived" while the official Senate Web site describes the vice presidency as the "least understood, most ridiculed, and most often ignored constitutional office in the federal government."...

Fears about a regulatory clampdown on one of his company's most profitable operations appears to be the least of Frank O'Halloran's worries.
Last year's string of catastrophes now looks like pushing QBE into a second-half of calendar 2011. The company shocked investors on Thursday by forecasting a fall in net profit for that year of 40 to 50 per cent.
The extent of the downgrade, which came just over two months since O'Halloran updated the market at a conference in late October, wiped more than 20 per cent off QBE shares, sending them to their lowest level since 2004.
The stock was trading around $10.69 by early afternoon, valuing the company at just under $12 billion. This compares with a market capitalisation of more than $30 billion in 2007.
QBE, like all insurers can blame a profit downgrade on forces beyond its control. But as O'Halloran admitted on a conference call with analysts, that is the very nature of the business they are in.
The net cost of the string of catastrophes last year, which include flooding in Thailand, Queensland, NSW and Victoria, was so far above market guidance that it raises questions about the structure of QBE's reinsurance program and the implications for that in the coming year.
Questions will also be asked about whether QBE was slow off the mark with its earnings downgrade.
QBE puts the blame squarely on flooding in Thailand when the full extent of the damage only became known in December when flood waters subsided.
O'Halloran received his first report on thailand from the loss adjusters just before Christmas and ordered further assessment of the extent of the damage.
All insurers have become riskier investments as
While QBE delivered a profit downgrade in June last year, things are clearly tougher than ever.
"This feels a bit like 2001 which followed years of falling premium rates and 9-11," O'Halloran told investors on a conference call.
The downgrade has overshadowed a New York Department of Financial Services probe into the lender-placed insurance sector, an important earnings driver for QBE out of the United States.
As Merrill Lynch analysts noted earlier on Thursday, QBE said that review is just a continuation of pre-existing reviews of the insurance industry and nothing has changed. QBE understood the regulatory situation when it acquired its lender-placed insurance Balboa last year and that is still the case.
The downgrade is personally disappointing for O'Halloran, 65, who has been chief executive for 14 years and drove the insurer's transformation into a global business.
QBE's acquisitions of lender-placed insurance companies since 2008, including ZC Sterling and Balboa, may pose a far different risk for the insurer than natural disasters if the politicians and regulators start cracking down on premiums being charged, although there is no firm evidence that will happen yet.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
Hi JACustomer,
So, the defendant defaulted on the Adversary Complaint, but if a default judgment enters, does the Chap. 7 case dissolve?
The debtor did not show up for the AP?
No answer was filed
That is not enough to dismiss a Bankruptcy case.
The creditor filed the AP?
Yes it is for an Adversary Complaint, the court has defaulted the defendant/petitioner
Of course the creditor did
Yes - it is possible that not showing up for a trustee's AP would result in dismissal, but not if the creditor filed the AP.
You don't seem to be familiar with this topic
A Bankruptcy debtor has the right to - but is not required to - defend himself in an adversary proceeding.
As I said, the Court entered a default and is requesting a Proposed Judgment
If not answering the AP could result in dismissal, the case would have been dismissed - no default judgment would have been issued.
I really don't think you have experience with this, I'm sorry.
I will opt out of this question so that someone else can help you further.
Thank you.
You're welcome!

I've been mulling over this for a while so I feel I need to write it down. Here are the regulations I think are reasonable and should be put into place.
Purchase control
All gun sales require a background check – No buts
Private gun sales from a non-dealer to a non-dealer must be presided over by a dealer who will perform the background check – Closes gun show loophole.
All owned arms with serial numbers must be in a national database – For tracking of crimes and trafficing
All gun owners must go through regular mental competency evaluation
All gun owners must have liability insurance – Like car insurance
All gun owners must obtain a "license" – Safety and use course sort of thing, again just like cars
Ammunition or ammunition loading supplies must be purchased in person from a dealer with registration of purchases – Excessive purchases will require explaination
No gun sales to those on terrorist watch list or no fly lists, but person much have chance to remove himself from list
One gun, per day, per person
Felons are barred from buying or owning guns from double their sentence, starting from the release of jail – So if someone is in jail five years, the ten years after release they are barred from owning a gun
Assault Weapon control
Guns that fire more than two shots in one trigger pull are banned – Prevents fully automatic weapons, but allows for double barrel shotguns to still exist
Bullet weapons have a 10 round limit, pellet weapons have a four shot limit – The only reason Jared Lee Loughner was taken down was because he was stuck reloading from his 33 round magazine (he also dropped it, giving an even bigger opening). As much as people think it's possible, nobody can really reload at Call of Duty speed.
Modifications to make guns fire at an faster speed than their original design are banned – There's a stock modification that uses recoil to turn an M4 Semi into something very close to an automatic. This sort of thing would be banned.
Specialty ammunition is banned – And by this I mean Shatter-point rounds, armor piercing rounds, incendiary rounds and soforth. Shotgun ammo excluded, provided it's all solid
Carry control
Guns cannot be carried on the property of schools and children's parks, law enforcement excluded – Probably won't prevent anything, but it would make me feel better
Guns must be in locked cases for transport with ammo in separate cases
Guns must be in semi-hard holsters or slings when on person, not in pockets or bags
If there is a child living in the home, all guns must be locked in a combonation safe when not in use – This prevents some child killing or subduing their parent, grabbing the keys and going for the safe
Contemplative ideas – The stuff I can't quite figure out how I feel
Concealed Carry – I can't figure out how I feel about this. I suppose if I had to give something, make this harder to get than the gun license.
Sound and Flash suppression – Where to draw the line is a big question I don't have the answer to, but a better question is that it's unnecessary, so why buy them?
The question of course remains, why these specifically? Most gun owners hide behind the second amendment as their right to own weapons like these. To me this is silly. Let's look at the text:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"
But here's what it doesn't say: What kind of arms. Those involved in the ratification of the bill of rights probably never could have imagined cartridge based weapons (as in brass, not paper) let alone fully automatic weapons.
A typical response to my ideas is simply "What if we have to protect ourselves from a tyranical government?" My answer?
"Drone Strike"
If you think a pea shooter is going to effectively go up against a hellfire missile shot (or more accurately dropped) from 5 kilometers away, you are delusional. If the government has become so corrupt that civil war is on our hands, the rebelion will be crushed under the weight of assault aircraft, armored infantry fighting vehicles and battleships. There is just no excuse for this anymore.

you can get jobs doing just about anything at or near the beach. the most important thing, IMHO, is to get into a field or profession in which you're really interested, whatever that may be.
if you make living at or near the beach a priority, then you will find a job in your chosen field.

It is arguable that one does not need a "major" in it. But the way it works is, without a college degree, there is usually 2 years minimum experience to land a decent managemetn gig. So you either need a degree, or you have to be willing to work your way up through the ranks....
But yes, in EVERY beach town, this is the major player. And you get ideal surfing hours...
Which is why I have a computer science degree and I run restaurants... restaurants keep me wet. And happy for that matter..=)

if you really want to take shred trips (and get them paid for with grants) get a graduate degree in anthropology and focus on studying the language/culture of the people in the place where you really want to surf. pick any spot on the globe. it's a bit of academic work, but it gets me down to bocas del toro every year
UNCW, Salisbury, or Monmouth
Applied a week ago. I just cant choose whether I want warmer weak wrightsville waves or cold Md/Del/NJ Barrels.

Accounting and internal auditing will be around about as long as nursing. In other words, forever. A good friend of mine earned his degree in accounting at U of MD and relocated down to central coastal Florida and has a great paying job for the area and low cost of living.

Mickey is beautiful! I've never heard of vanilla shelties either. I don't think it's an actual name. Just something for fun. ; )
How beautiful!!!! I've never heard that term "vanilla" sheltie.
Oh Mickey! You are so handsome. I have a 'vanilla' faced boy also and the white eyelashes are so adorable… although mine has brown on one side, and blue eyes. He's a sable merle and I'm wondering if Mickey is too? Just soooo cute!
what a beautiful baby!
I love Mickey. He is so handsome and looks so sweet. We also have a sheltie named Mickey but he is not currently a "vanilla" sheltie. Is your Mickey an older sheltie or has he always had lighter coloring? Thanks for sharing your boy with us. I know you must treasure him. Enjoy cuddling with your lovely sheltie!
I love Mickey's white nose. He sure looks sweet.
Oh my.. what a beautiful boy!! I love his little white eyelashes!!
What exactly makes one a Vanilla Sheltie?
Mickey appears to be deep in thought. He's handsome & debonair, too!
Look at that gorgeous little snout! Beautiful boy
Oh, my heavens, all Shelties are exquisite, but Mickey absolutely shines!!! I'd love to take him and cuddle forever!
Melissa, I'm so glad you've got him and know you must treasure him.
AW-w-w Mickey, you just melted my heart. You are without a doubt the MOST handsome gentleman I've seen in a long time. Melissa what a great shot of your beautiful furbaby. I think I'm looking at a senior, right? How old is Mickey? As a testament to your wonderful parenting, we can tell this baby has been well loved and cared for all his life. Please give him extra hugs and kisses tonight for me, I would do it myself if I could. I wish Mickey lots of long nights, comfortably curled up in front of the fireplace.

So, before anything else, I want to say that this is a fantastic looking event, and I would love to see it happen at Noisebridge.

I do have some questions about the eventbrite page.

1. Having a "Free" ticket implies that you must pay for a ticket if they run out. When I see the "late bird" listed with a price, I feel like I'm looking at a ticket for sale, not a donation quantity.

2. Allowing someone to get a "ticket" online implies that they need a ticket to attend the event. I'm sure that's not the case, but it makes me worry that some people may decide against attending because they don't have a ticket, or feel that because they don't have a ticket nor want to attend your event, they need to avoid Noisebridge altogether.

3. There seems to be a "ticket fee" of $1.61 for the late bird tickets, and $6.99 for the sponsor package. Does this mean that someone who wants to support Noisebridge will also have to pay money to Eventbrite to process their tickets? I'm ok with people donating to Noisebridge, but I'm not ok with them being forced to give money to another place as well. It's like shareware that makes you install comet cursor on your computer as well as the app you want.

4. In my opinion, Noisebridge should never allow anyone to sponsor us. This gets into an entire philosophy I'd rather duke out in person than on the mailing list. If you ask someone to sponsor your event which takes places in the venue of Noisebridge, people might have certain expectations which Noisebridge might not meet, and that could get messy and confusing really fast. What does sponsorship of your event entail, and what steps have you taken to disambiguate it from Noisebridge?

I bring these issues up because in Leif's email, there were 10 sponsor packages available, and now there are 9. Which means someone has gone through, purchased a sponsorship package, and also paid money to Eventbrite. Things should now be laid out very clearly to avoid any potential miscommunication.

All that said, assuming we can figure this stuff out, I really look forward to seeing this happen!

Hey everyone,

 RemakeCamp is a totally free event. Late bird tickets are added
 only to create some pressure for people to register. When free tickets
 will sell out I add more free tickets to the system.

 I am ok to run a donation box onsite and give the money to Noisebridge
 and/or spend it on food.

 I do not know how many people will register. Maybe, we should do the following:
 Ā- delay the official venue announcement till around April 20
 Ā- check the projection for total number of registrations
 Ā- if it is around 50-70, then announce Noisebridge as a venue
 Ā- if it is 100+, then I have to find a different venue

I want to get a Juvederm injection in my nose bridge (I have a flat bridge), but I am afraid that it will start to migrate (and cause lumps) around my nose area when the product starts to dissolve over time. Will this happen? This is my first time with any kind of filler, so I am very worried about this. Please help. Thank you!
Will Juvederm Start to Migrate Around the Nose when It Start Dissolving?
Doctor Answers 5
If injected properly, Juvederm or any other hyaluronic acid should not migrate.
Juvederm or any other hyaluronic acid based facial filler should not migrate if it is placed skillfully and not manipulated after the injection. That said, Perlane would be a better choice as this is a more particulate filler that tends to keep its shape where it is placed, especially on a bony area. Juvederm is a much finer filler and I don't use it for volumetric injections but more for fine lines and lips. There is no tendency for migration when the fillers start to dissolve.

Juvederm for Nose
The probability and degree of migration can be managed in the hands of an experienced and expert injector. Juvederm may not be an ideal filler for this area. You may wish to discuss a filler such as radiesse with your injector.

Juvederm For Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty - Should Not Migrate
When properly injected, Juvederm should not migrate or cause lumps. That being said, Juvederm is not my first choice for correction of nasal defects (non-surgical rhinoplasty). In our practice, we use liquid injectable silicone which is much more precise and long-lasting. I recommend you consult with a board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon.

Migration of juvederm
It is unlikely that this would happen as the product, when properly injected, should not migrate. However, Juvederm would not be my first choice for this type of correction. I would use a firmer filler like Perlane or Radiesse.
for this question i would call the mfg of the product for the tests results

Once again with Iran in the news, I'm reminded of my friend Selene Walters and her almost-forgotten headline whirlwind romance with the Shah of Iran.
Selene began modeling in Washington D.C. to earn extra money while working for the WPA. Modeling was easy for the blonde beauty and her brother influenced her to move to New York City and see if she could pursue a modeling career. With his help she met Mr. John Powers of the John Robert Powers Modeling Agency and with one quick runway walk and turn, "He signed me up right away."
One afternoon while lunching at the famous 21 Club, she was spotted by Buddy De Sylva, at that time the president of Paramount Pictures in New York. He sent a note over to her table with his card that read, "If you would like to go to Hollywood and be in movies, be at my office at the Paramount building tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock sharp."
The next morning on the dot she was in his office with several producers who were looking for fresh faces, and would she be interested in signing a Hollywood contract to make movies? "Well I certainly would, and I signed up right there on the spot!" Soon she was on a train bound for Hollywood, and it wasn't long before she was settled into a Beverly Hills apartment and enjoying all the frills from her new found career and lifestyle.
One day she glanced at the cover of Time Magazine and there was the Shah of Iran and it read, "Now the world's most famous bachelor! The Shah of Iran divorces Egyptian Princess Fawzia Fuad, the former Queen of Iran." She said to herself, "If he's so eligible, I'd like to meet him." The next day she telephoned a secondhand dealer, sold all her furniture to help gather all the money she could, and the rest is history.
She headed for New York, where at a party, purely by chance she met Aristotle Onassis, the wealthy billionaire shipping magnate, also a single bachelor, and he invited her to dinner. During the evening she mentioned to Mr. Onassis she wanted to meet the Shah of Iran and he told her she'd have to head for Europe. Passage to Europe was not in her budget and Mr. Onassis offered, "I have a ship leaving from Newport tomorrow and I will pick you up, drive you to the dock, and you'll be on your way." Naturally she accepted.
Once she arrived in France, she caught the first train to Paris and from there caught a plane to Nice where she ran in to Stephen Crane, newly divorced from Lana Turner. She confided in Crane, "I am here to meet the Shah of Iran."
Somewhat shocked, he said, "Why do you want to meet him?"
"Well, I just think it would be exciting to know him," and so he invited her to a dinner party at the Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo. "While dining I noticed they were rapidly arranging another large table of guests and low and behold there he was, the Shah himself!
"Somehow I managed to catch his eye and he came over and asked me to dance. It was pure magic for the next three weeks, until the studio called me and said, 'Selene you are making headlines all over the United States and you must immediately return home or you will lose your career and your daughter. Your ex-husband is calling you unfit in the newspapers.'
"What could I do? I left for home brokenhearted, because my daughter came first. To this day she has refused to speak to me for almost 50 years, and so not only did I lose my love, the Shah, but I also lost the love of my only daughter.
"The Shah understood and years later I went to a reception and when I approached him in the reception line he said, 'Oh, my dear Selene, how is your daughter?'"
Life can be so cruel.

You have to hand it to Dr. Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury: he knows how to start a good debate. Even when he gets an issue 100 percent wrong, as he does in his February 7 lecture and interview on Sharia law, he at least addresses issues that matter and should engage our intellect, morality and emotions.
In what follows, I will at times refer to British or UK law where this does not give rise to ambiguity, although I am aware that there are distinct systems of English Law, Scottish Law and Northern Irish Law, not to mention the laws of the various Channel Islands, of the Isle of Man and indeed EU law.
Dr. Williams makes, and at time mixes up, two quite different points. The first is that different British communities (he appears to be referring only to communities based on a religious faith, rather than on, say, the support of a football team) can and should have their own legal procedures, practices, institutions and even 'courts', whose judgements would be enforceable through the British court system. The second is that Sharia law may contain legal principles or practices that are intrinsically worthwhile and could/should be incorporated into British law.
I will take these two points in turn. Although Sharia law does not distinguish between civil law and criminal law, most issues involving Sharia courts and other religious courts in the UK have involved civil law matters. It would seem pretty self-evident that having community-specific criminal law and criminal courts would be an abomination of the first order. There have been stories in the media that there are ethnic-community-based or religion-based criminal 'courts' in the UK, and that some of these operate with the consent of the police. A Somali 'court' of this kind, operating in London, was the most frequently mentioned example. These may well be urban myths. If they are not, they would constitute examples of vigilantism that are utterly beyond the pale. I will focus on civil law in most of what follows.
Should different religious communities have their own courts?
Dr Williams notes "We have orthodox Jewish courts operating in this country legally and in a regulated way because there are modes of dispute resolution and customary provisions which apply there in the light of Talmud." That is correct. British Orthodox Jews can use their own rabbinical courts, the Beth Din, to resolve civil disputes, including religious divorce (the Beth Din cannot grant a civil divorce) and business disputes. The Beth Din hears only civil disputes; the court can only act if both sides agree; both parties to the dispute must be Jewish; once these conditions are satisfied, the decisions of the court are binding under English civil law.
It could be argued that the Beth Din, although institutionally a rabbinical court, only acts as a court in Jewish religious matters, including religious marriage; outside strictly religious matters, e.g. in business disputes, it does not act as a court at all but instead acts as an arbitrator. Arbitration is the submission of a dispute to a (supposedly unbiased and impartial) third person or party designated by the parties to the dispute, who agree in advance to comply with the decision of the arbitrator — a decision to be issued after a hearing at which both parties have an opportunity to be heard.
Arbitration is a well-established and widely used means to resolve disputes, both in the UK and in the US. It is one of several kinds of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms providing parties to a dispute with a option other than litigation. Unlike litigation, arbitration takes place out of court and can be cheaper and faster than litigation. The arbitrator's decision is usually final, and courts rarely re-examine it.
As regards the Beth Din, it can be argued that there is a well-established English legal principle that any third party can be agreed by two sides to arbitrate in a dispute, and that the institutional third party often chosen by Orthodox Jews to resolve family and business disputes happens to be the Beth Din. So no skin off anyone's nose.
This may well make sense in strictly religious matters, such as a religious divorce or marriage. It may also make sense for business disputes between unrelated parties. Even as regards business disputes, there is, to me, something not quite right about a set of arbitration arrangements that is, by construction, only open to members of a certain faith.
The law of the land should not grant rights and privileges to members of some group, religious or other, that are not universally available to all those under its jurisdiction.
Even if we accept exclusive religion-based arbitration procedures for business disputes between unrelated parties, it does not make any sense at all for a religious authority to make decisions in family disputes and other matters of family law and broader civil law that touch on basic rights which all persons living under the jurisdiction of UK courts are supposed to enjoy. Specifically, anything touching on division of property and assets following divorce, custody of children, visitation rights, inheritance etc. should never be arbitrated/adjudicated by a religious court. If the Beth Din currently decides on such matters (I don't know the answer to that), it should not longer be recognised by the British legal system as a valid arbitrator.
The argument that people only submit to the judgement of a religious court voluntarily is bogus. Even if it were true that the judgement of a religious court could easily be appealed to a proper British court by any of the parties involved, and without any prejudice (that is, without the judgement of the religious court carrying any weight in the procedures and decision of the British court of appeal), I would still be opposed to any role of religious courts in matters touching on fundamental human rights.
Women, young adults of either gender and children from closely knit religious communities cannot be assumed to be free agents capable of making choices without undue pressure from relatives or other members of the community. The notion is ludicrous that a Sharia 'court' in the UK could make legally binding decisions on polygamy, forced marriage, the distribution of property and assets following divorce or separation, custody of children, visitation rights, dress codes for women, beard codes for men, anything else having to do with the rights of women, matters of inheritance and bequests, matters involving the rules of evidence etc. A religious court is an intrinsic part of the mechanism of control of the community over its members; and those who 'voluntarily' accept to submit to its decisions may well end up browbeaten into submission to the community norms by the psychological and social pressures associated with its procedures.
So except in narrowly religious matters that do not impact on any fundamental human rights which all those living in the UK are entitled to enjoy, there should be no religious courts or any other sectarian courts operating in the UK. The State of Ontario in Canada flirted with the idea of giving special legal standing to minority religious courts for disputes and other legal matters arising among members of that community. It is now in full retreat from that fatal error.
Islam does not recognise any limits on the domain of the religious. The notion of a private sphere, to which the religious belongs, and a public sphere which (a) is governed by institutions, rules, laws and principles that need not follow/reflect the dictates of any religion and (b) does not hold any religion above any other (or above no religion), is anathema to it. An Islamic state is not just a state where Islam is the state religion. It is a state where Islam is the state, as well as the private sphere. This theocratic and totalitarian model of the state is alien to modern western societies, although historically both Judaism and Christianity have had their theocratic and totalitarian phases. So when I write of 'narrowly religious matters that do not impact on fundamental human rights all those living in the UK are entitled to enjoy', I am assuming and asserting a specific model of the relationship between the private, the religious and the public, one which has a strict separation of church/synagogue/mosque/temple/gurdwara and state; this separation is not recognised by Islam or in Sharia law. It is a dialogue of, if not the deaf, then at any rate of parties whose fundamental premises do not overlap at all.
There are some atavistic features of the British legal systems that do give certain groups legal choices not open to others. In England, legal marriage by the Church of England is one of these. This option is not open to all, as some Church of England priests refuse to marry divorced persons. This problem should be solved by eliminating the legal status of church weddings. The Dutch, like many other continental nations, only have the civil (registry office) version of the legal marriage contract. This can then be blessed/consecrated/celebrated in church, mosque, temple, synagogue or gurdwara. I hope and expect that the disestablishment of the Church of England (which surely cannot be long in coming now) will resolve this problem. The problem is a rather minor one of course, because a church marriage in the UK offers no rights, duties or protections under any of the UK 's legal systems not also available through a civil marriage.
Should (part of) Sharia law be incorporated into UK law?
Let's first get one red herring out of the way. The Archbishop invites us to recall that "… the law of the Church of England is the law of the land,…". So it is indeed, and it is and it is a most regrettable state of affairs indeed to have a single faith or any faith established as the church of the land and granted special rights and privileges. Disestablishment now!
The Archbishop states that "…there remains a great deal of uncertainty about what degree of accommodation the law of the land can and should give to minority communities with their own strongly entrenched legal and moral codes…". I would say that there should be no uncertainty about this at all. Either these strongly held legal and moral codes of minority communities are incorporated into the law of the land through the normal legislative processes, and made applicable to all, or they will have no legal standing whatsoever. End of story.
But are there valuable elements in Sharia law that could be incorporated into British law to the benefit of all, regardless of what faith, if any, one adheres to? Here we run into a huge problem. No two experts agree on what Sharia law is.
It can, apparently, be all things to all people.
The Archbishop emphasises an enlightened, abstract interpretation of Sharia law as a method of constructing laws from universal principles. "…so far from being a monolithic system of detailed enactments, Sharia designates primarily – to quote Ramadan again – 'the expression of the universal principles of Islam [and] the framework and the thinking that makes for their actualization in human history'. "Universal principles: as any Muslim commentator will insist, what is in view is the eternal and absolute will of God for the universe and for its human inhabitants in particular; but also something that has to be 'actualized', not a ready-made system." "On the one hand, Sharia depends for its legitimacy not on any human decision, not on votes or preferences, but on the conviction that it represents the mind of God; on the other, it is to some extent unfinished business so far as codified and precise provisions are concerned. To recognise Sharia is to recognise a method of jurisprudence governed by revealed texts rather than a single system."
Even this enlightened interpretation of Sharia, as opposed to the benighted, barbaric applications and expressions of it in Saudi Arabia, Iran, the Tribal Areas of Pakistan and other places, with its stoning of adulterers, execution of homosexuals, death for apostasy, death or banishment for blasphemy, hacking off of the hands of thieves, systemic discrimination and oppression of women etc., is, however, still deeply problematic.
Not being privy to the contents of the mind of God, I have no way of verifying the conviction that Sharia represents the mind of God. I am worried about those who claim to know the mind of God. Paraphrasing someone whose name I cannot recall: "when I talk to God, it's OK; it's called praying; when I believe God is talking to me, it is voices in the air and it is time for the men in the white coats." Even those (in the words of the Archbishop) "… voices arguing for an extension of the liberty of ijtihad – basically reasoning from first principles rather than simply the collation of traditional judgements ", must recognise that "… certain elements of the Sharia are specified fairly exactly in the Qur'an and Sunna and in the hadith recognised as authoritative in this respect, …" even though "there is no single code that can be identified as 'the' Sharia.". It is not really possible to get away from the curse of fundamentalism and litteralism, even for the strongest proponent of 'reasoning from first principles', if some of these first principles are "specified fairly exactly in the Qur'an and Sunna and in the hadith recognised as authoritative in this respect, …".
Similar fundamentalist/literalist poison can be, has been and continues to be extracted from the Tenakh/Hewbrew Scriptures/Old Testament and from the New Testament: homophobia, the oppression of women, repression of human sexuality etc.
It is, of course, open to believers of any kind to try to have their religious ethics incorporated into the law of the land through the normal legislative processes. In that case recourse to those provisions of the law should be open to all on equal terms and the minority-faith inspired law of the land will be applicable to all in exactly the same way.
This is different from exempting some group from the application of the law of the land or from granting to some group rights and privileges that are not granted to others.
Conscientious objection is one example of how the law of the land can be shaped by religious beliefs and convictions. But the key point is that there is one law of all. Not one law for Christian conscientious objectors and another one for those who worship Zeus.
Dr Williams mentions " the right of religious believers in general to opt out of certain legal provisions – as in the problems around Roman Catholic adoption agencies which emerged in relation to the Sexual Orientation Regulations last spring.". This is a simple confusion of the private and the public sphere. Adoption is a legal, family or civil law procedure. If the law says same-sex couples can adopt, then agencies that perform a role in the legal adoption process must abide by the law. If the Roman Catholic church has problems with that, it should try to change the law and make adoption by same-sex couples illegal again. If this turns out to be beyond its reach, the Church can, if it wishes to do so, discriminate in private Roman Catholic church functions against same-sex couples who have adopted or are preparing to do so. I would view any such behaviour by the Church as deeply unchristian, but it is in the private sphere and should be allowed.
Where religious sensitivities can be accommodated within the law of the land by simple acts of intelligent design, and without undermining any of the basic human rights we cherish, the law should do so. And the law does. Sharia law, like traditional Jewish and Christian law, has a problem with interest. So Islamic financial engineers and a select group of financial Mullahs design contracts that are functionally equivalent to interest-bearing instruments (like mortgages) but meet the letter of Sharia law on the prohibition of interest. In the case of a home purchase financed through a conventional mortgage by those not constrained by Sharia law, stamp duty is payable once. The Islamic equivalent technically involves two sales of the property (one by the seller to the bank, one by the bank to the purchaser). It would clearly be nonsensical for stamp duty to have to be paid twice for a home purchase involving a Sharia-compliant mortgage, and the law sensibly makes sure that stamp duty is only paid once. But everyone, including non-Muslims, can take out a Sharia-compliant mortgage.
It's hard to see how some other prominent issues that are religiously sensitive for some Muslims could be incorporated into UK law in a non-discriminatory manner. Polygamy just for Muslims is unacceptable. Polygamy for all would be consistent with non-discrimination among heterosexuals, as long as it is recognised including both polygyny and polyandry, and even that does not extend the same legal rights and obligations to same-sex polyamorous unions.
Most but not all current implementations of Sharia law outside the UK in such areas as divorce, custody of children, rights of women, laws of inheritance, blasphemy, rules of evidence, apostasy, proselitizing and conversion, would be quite incompatible with British legal principles. The sole surviving bit of blasphemy law in the UK (where you are only legally at risk if you blaspheme against the Christian deity) will, I hope, soon be relegated to the dustbin of history. What I have seen of criminal law in Sharia-compliant countries, both as regards legal procedures and as regards sentencing, seems utterly incompatible with British legal principles.
It is certainly possible that there are elements of enlightened Sharia law I am not familiar with that would enhance the quality of the UK 's legal framework. If so, its proponents will have to go through the tedious political/legislative process of turning those aspects of Sharia law into the law of the land, applicable to all.
My answer to the first question – Should there be religious courts capable of making binding judgements about issues that impinge on fundamental rights that ought to be enjoyed by all those living in the UK? – is: no. The answer remains no even if recourse to these religious courts occurs only with the consent of all parties involved. It remains no even if the judgement of the religious court can be appealed to a normal UK court.
My answer to the second question – Should any aspects of Sharia law be incorporated into British law? – is: I have not yet seen any substantive legal principle or practice from Sharia law (in any of its many interpretations) that I would wish to see become part of British law. But it is, in principle, possible. It would have to become law through the normal legislative and political processes, of course. And the resulting law would apply to all, regardless of the faith they adhere to or reject.
Finally, I recommend that the Archbishop re-read and meditate on the view he expressed, and then strongly rejected: "There is a position – not at all unfamiliar in contemporary discussion – which says that to be a citizen is essentially and simply to be under the rule of the uniform law of a sovereign state, in such a way that any other relations, commitments or protocols of behaviour belong exclusively to the realm of the private and of individual choice. …" This is the only way to live in a pluralistic, heterogeneous society".
The Archbishop should have stopped there, or, if he had to go walkabout in the wilderness of misguided multiculturalism, he should have returned there. But like so many woolly liberals, the Archbishop ends up as the enemy of freedom. The rights he wants to give to communities he considers underprivileged, vulnerable and in need of special protection, would mean the end of human rights from some of the most vulnerable members of these communities. In the end there are only human rights, and no minority or majority rights. It is bewildering to see a brilliant man like Rowan Williams with both feet in his mouth. But should he resign because of this? Absolutely not. He may be wrong, but at least he thinks, and he is even willing to think out loud and in public. In this country, where 'intellectual' is an insult, Dr. Williams is a true intellectual. A misguided one, of course, but a valuable contributor to the public discourse nevertheless.

The Selfish Giant To Help Launch The BFI Player
Coming-of-age drama is the first downloadable feature
Look out Netflix, LoveFilm, Apple and co. because there's a new and particularly well-groomed kid on the block, wearing a bow tie and probably puffing nonchalantly on a pipe. The cineastes over at the British Film Institute have announced plans to launch an online streaming service, the BFI Player, enabling movie lovers to access its extensive archive of films, interviews, Q&As and red carpet events from the comfort of their own homes.
Kicking off the platform on October 18 is the London Film Festival's Archive Gala feature, the newly-restored documentary of 1924's Everest expedition, Epic Of Everest. It'll be followed by Clio Barnard's BFI co-funded coming-of-age drama The Selfish Giant, a day-and-date release with its UK-wide opening on October 25 that will cost viewers £10 for 30 days' access.
"Today is a real milestone for the BFI," said chairman Greg Dyke at the BFI Player's launch. "We're about to make the boldest move we've made since the National Film Theatre opened 60 years ago."
The plan is to make 10,000 films from the BFI archive available in a digital format and to offer the viewing public a say in the films chosen.

Yes, the John Ramsey (1787 - 1872), who married (about 1808) Martha
Alexander, the daughter of Gabriel Alexander and Jane Black, in Iredell Co.,
NC, is my line of descent. John married his second wife, Sarah H. Chambers,
about 1819, apparently after Martha died. The family then moved to Lawrence
Co., IN, settling in Pleasant Run Twp., where they remained.
The researcher who claims that this John's parents were James Ramsey and
Margaret Wallace is John M. King. I communicated with him online about ten
years ago regarding this family, but don't know his current email address.
Some of his data came from a book by Robert H. Stone, entitled "The Ramseys
and Related Families with Genealogical Charts", printed by Bob Largent, in
1993, but I don't know what specific documentation was used to verify the
information in the book. At the time, he was trying to prove that James'
father was Robert Ramsey, and further that Robert Ramsey was the son of
Allan Ramsey, the famous Scottish poet. Don't know if he was ever able to
make the connection or not.
Would love to know if someone out there has good documentation to prove
these relationships. Otherwise, as we know, it's just speculation, and good
research can't be based on that!
