Minnesota Statute §609.2241 makes the knowing transfer of communicable disease a crime. In 2014 the Minnesota Supreme Court overturned the conviction of an HIV+ defendant raising questions regarding the statute and its public health implications. This program will discuss the pros and cons of prosecutions under the statute, how to advise clients, and how to handle issues involving HIV in your practice. In addition, this course will clarify the current health risks of HIV and public health considerations when assessing cases and claims. A panel of speakers will lead a discussion of strategies and responses to potential defendants and potential crime victims in our current context.

Philip Humber
Philip Gregory Humber (/ˈʌmbər/; born December 21, 1982) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Kia Tigers of the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO). He has pitched for the New York Mets, Minnesota Twins, Kansas City Royals, Houston Astros and Chicago White Sox in seven seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB). Although he debuted in the major leagues in 2006 and had worked mostly as a starter in the minor leagues, he did not become a regular MLB starter until 2011.
Humber earned three Texas Little League state championships. He subsequently attended Carthage High School in Carthage, Texas, where he led the baseball team to the state championship game in 2001, his senior season, winning state Player of the Year honors. He then attended Rice University, where he played college baseball for the Rice Owls baseball team. Humber was the winning pitcher in the clinching game of the 2003 College World Series. He has also represented the United States at the World University Baseball Championship.
The Mets selected Humber with the third overall selection in the 2004 MLB Draft. During his minor league career, he underwent ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction, before making his MLB debut with the Mets. It took him several years to regain his ability to throw with the same velocity that he had prior to the injury. After being included in a trade to the Twins for Johan Santana, Humber struggled to establish himself. He spent a year with the Royals organization and was briefly a member of the Oakland Athletics organization, before being claimed on waivers by the White Sox in 2011, getting an opportunity to pitch in the White Sox' starting rotation. On April 21, 2012, Humber pitched the 21st perfect game in MLB history, defeating the Seattle Mariners.

Too little, too late if Bills top Titans today [5:13 AM]
Niagara Gazette reports: 'Wins by San Francisco at Cincinnati, Cleveland at Denver and Philadelphia at Miami, added to a Buffalo win, would ensure another week of hope. It also would make next Sunday's visit from the Dolphins more than just another Sunday in December that spoils Miami's season.'
Bills' Henry thrives despite fractured leg [5:12 AM]
Toronto Star reports: '"You literally have to knock him unconscious to stop him," Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher says of Henry. "He's impressive to watch. He can humiliate defences."'
Kearse ready to hit the sack for Titans [5:11 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: '''If it is a pass, I want to be the one that pressures the quarterback. If it is a run, I want to beat my block and make the tackle. Now it is like everyone be selfish, but in a good way. Selfish for the whole team.'''
McNair will warm up to see if he can play [5:10 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: 'McNair didn't take part in a light walk-through practice at Baptist Sports Park as backup Billy Volek worked with the first-team offense. But he was in cleats for the first time since last Sunday.'
Olson, Adams mix it up on line [5:09 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: '''He is one of the better defensive tackles in the league. He is able to move side-to-side very well. He brings both power and quickness to the line of scrimmage. I am sure Sam increases his level of play when he plays us.'''
As contract talks stall, Kearse eyes Williams [5:08 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: '''We feel comfortable with our position and naturally the Titans feel comfortable with theirs,'' Rosenhaus said. ''Right now we are not particularly close.'''
Growth on Fisher's chin must mean Titans need a win [5:07 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: 'The Titans enter the stretch drive with all the momentum of a snail on sedatives.'

Nashville Tennessean reports: 'Q: What conference should Notre Dame play in?
A: ''If they are going to go to one, and I don't necessarily think they should, I'd say Big Ten. We are more of a Midwest style of football scheme and I think we'd fit best in the Big Ten.'''
Joe Biddle�s Random Ruminations [5:04 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: 'Give a Titans salute today to Van Miller, radio voice of the Bills for 37 years. This is his last trip around the frozen lake and he will be in the Bills booth today. Miller won't divulge his age, only admits to being a bus boy at The Last Supper.'
Henry's rushing stats make McGahee look like also-ran [5:03 AM]
Seattle Times reports: 'General manager Tom Donahoe agrees, but he thinks there will be room for both tailbacks next season. "We don't have any decision to make," Donahoe said. "We'll go into next year with two outstanding running backs, and we'll see what happens."'
HOF member Joe DeLamielleure�will be appearing in�Richmond�VA [1:59 AM]
TBD reports: Joe DeLamielleure will be appearing in Richmond, VA, Sunday (December 14th) at an autograph show.

Each show typically features 12 to 15 autograph guests.
Coaches put friendship aside in push for playoffs [4:28 PM]
AP reports: 'This will be the Bills' first important game in Nashville since their AFC wild-card loss to the Titans, which propelled Tennessee to the Super Bowl in 2000. Only six Bills remain from that team, which now looks like a northern version of the Titans, with cornerback Dainon Sidney and four former Tennessee coaches. ''They're bizarro Titans,'' Tennessee left tackle Brad Hopkins said. Add to that three former Tennessee Volunteers on the Bills' roster, and Sunday's game feels like a family reunion albeit one with very high stakes. Henry alone will have 25 friends and family in the stands.'
McNair's a mighty mess, as usual [8:58 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"There's no doubt in my mind he'll answer the bell," said Bills coach Gregg Williams, the Titans' defensive coordinator from 1997-00. "He's one of the toughest football players in the league, and playing at a very high level. You know he's playing at a level that many are considering maybe an MVP candidate. I thought he was last year, too."'
Bills fans blindsided by parking rule [8:57 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"We had parking attendants go out there earlier than they normally would be and made the authorities aware, "Let's enforce this more than we have before,' " said Bills spokesman Scott Berchtold. "A lot of the fans had entered in illegally, actually, when they came into the parking lots before that," he said. "We're paying a lot more attention to that, and we're enforcing it a lot of more readily now, and fans should be aware of that."'
Hut 1, hurt, too�hike [5:20 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: '�You don�t take a week off. This is football. You play,� said Bledsoe. �If I�m able to play I�m going to play and that�s the way I�m going to be until I quit playing the game.�'
McNair making progress [5:19 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: '''He's got a little less swelling in the ankle joint than he did (Thursday). And that's the key right now, to get the swelling out of there, because there's so much swelling and bleeding in the joint it's not operating,'' Fisher said. ''If we can continue to get the swelling out then he'll have a chance to get out on the field and see if he can go.'''
Volek not counting on start [5:18 AM]
Nashville Tennessean reports: '''Drew has helped me out a lot and I appreciate everything he has done. What he has done in this league is phenomenal,'' Volek said.'
Williams' time in Buffalo may be dwindling [5:17 AM]
Pittsburgh Tribune Review reports: 'That said, if you mentioned Steelers offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey as a candidate to become the next Bills' head coach, I wouldn't laugh at you.'
McNair a game-time decision, Fisher says [7:21 PM]
AP reports: '``He's got a little less swelling in the ankle joint than he did yesterday,'' coach Jeff Fisher said after practice Friday. ``And that's the key right now, to get the swelling out of there because there's so much swelling and bleeding in the joint, it's not operating.'''
The Bills Are All Healthy Minus One [7:13 PM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Williams said Willis McGahee once again practiced with the offense this week. Last week the head coach said he'd consider using McGahee for the first time all season. He didn't play on Sunday. This week Williams said, "I wouldn't go out on a limb and say that he'll play."'
Moulds Returns to Practice; Moore Sits Out [7:00 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Wide receiver Eric Moulds will be shown giving a tour of his home on "NFL Under the Helmet" Saturday morning at 12 noon ET on FOX in the Buffalo area.'
Tops Game Ball Winner: Travis Henry [6:59 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Q: Watching football as a kid, what was your "team" that you always tried to watch and wanted to play? Did you expect to be playing for the Buffalo Bills today? - Alex (Olean, NY) TH: The Buffalo Bills were my team. I watched them through the Super Bowl runs. A particular player I admired growing up was Emmit Smith, but the Buffalo Bills were my team.'
Coach Fisher's Friday practice report [6:58 PM]
TitansOnline.com reports: 'On Drew Bledsoe: Your rush approach is a little different when you�ve got a quarterback who is not as likely to take off and run or break contain and throw on the run. He could still move around. He�s a pocket passer and a very good one and he�s been making good decisions as of late. His success has been tied to the running game the last three or four weeks.'
Bills' Moore misses second straight practice; Moulds returns [3:15 PM]
AP reports: 'Williams added that rookie running back Willis McGahee is unlikely to make his NFL debut against Tennessee.'
Bills Defense Continues To Impress [12:11 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: '"We've got some good offensive teams we are going to play against coming down the stretch but our defense has done a very good job again this past week of not allowing a touchdown against a team with really one of the hottest quarterbacks in the league throwing touchdown passes," head coach Gregg Williams said. "That speaks volumes for our defensive pride. We're not allowing big plays. That's making the opponents' offense earn everything."'
No catch: Tight ends embrace their role [8:56 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"It's not about me or Dave or Ryan or how many balls we catch," said Campbell, who leads the tight ends with 25 catches but has been shut out the last three games. "We just want to contribute in any way we can. It's about team success."'
Freakish challenge doesn't worry Sullivan [8:55 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I think you have to give credit where it's due, but I think a lot of tackles that go against him psyche themselves out before the game even starts," Sullivan said. "When you play a guy like that, you have to focus on your own technique. Of course, he has the great speed and long arms. But you have to worry about what you have to do. I just have to prepare myself physically and mentally, and then let my ability take care of the rest."'
Fletcher's heart is soul of Buffalo D [5:17 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: 'This year, playing for a markedly improved defense, Fletcher won�t approach those gaudy tackle numbers, but he still has a team-leading 132 through 13 games.'
If Williams stays as coach, Bills may get Kearse-d next year [5:16 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: '�A little bit, I can�t lie,� said Kearse when asked if thought about joining Williams in Buffalo.'

Property Values Projected To Fall 12 Percent In 2010
NewObservations.net projects residential real estate prices will fall 12 percent nationwide in 2010.
Our average of four major indexes predicts a total fall in prices of 34% from peak to stable trend. The total fall of 34% is based upon a current loss across four number sets of 19%.
The timing and the total fall vary widely among the data. The most conservative picture of our total fall is a 20% loss. The most radical prediction is that values will fall 51% from peak to stable trend (Please see the summary of results immediately below.).
One data set predicts that we will attain a trend value this year and then push beyond it (See below the First American Core Logic Chart.). The projections provided here artificially limit the loss to a return-to-trend value.
Two conservative data sets see the fall in values continuing through the summer of 2013. If correct, that's equal to 3.5 more years of falling prices. The leading economic historians say prices normally fall for six years after a credit bubble. Based upon a summer 2006 high, the middle of 2012 is the projected bottom (Please see the chart below from CARMEN M. REINHART and KENNETH S. ROGOFF.).
All of the forecasts here are based upon the author's assumption that real estate is a stable investment which largely tracks inflation. The follow-on assumption is that values broke out of this stable pricing pattern in a real estate bubble which started in 1990.
The basis of the primary assumption, the assumption that real estate is a stable non-appreciating asset, is taken directly from Robert Shiller. He is a leading expert on real estate prices.
"My data show that between 1890 and 1990 real home prices actually didn't increase," Mr. Shiller wrote in Newsweek (Dec 30, 2009), Why We'll Always Have More Money Than Sense. If prices didn't appreciate for 100 years, it leads one to assume the break in that pattern is an artificial break.
The prediction of a 12% fall this year averages forecasts ranging as high as 28% and as low as 4%. I try to make no judgment about these estimates. I report the numbers objectively based upon providing a linear projection of the fall in prices dating from the market peak. Each data set is treated the same way. If the upward trend starting in 1990 is supportable and real, then the numbers provided here are very likely to be incorrect. If government policies reenact a bubble, these numbers will also be incorrect.
The federal government has taken extraordinary measures to stop the fall predicted by these trend charts. Given the massive power of the United States Treasury and the Federal Reserve, those efforts may win. Their steps to artificially maintain prices center on Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the FHA making essentially every new mortgage loan in the United States today.
Without their lending, real estate prices in the United States would fall dramatically. The author estimates prices would fall 50% to 75% from today's level if Fannie, Freddie, and the FHA stopped making loans. Private investment in mortgage loans has disappeared. Without government lending most purchases would have to be made from the buyer's savings. Buyers would have to pay all cash. It's a way of doing things we don't even understand.
We are in a radical real estate depression hidden from us by massive government fixes.
The housing bubble was created in a classic credit mania which artificially lifted the prices of all assets which could be purchased with borrowed money. Credit manias are common in human history. Normally time has to pass for the memory of the irrationality to fade and to be allowed a new place to resume.
In our case we may have simply re-fired the credit-mania stove immediately and we are now in and marching toward new mania bubbles with new defaults and larger crises.
Residential real estate is probably the most consequential of all the bubble assets from our current crisis. Mortgages were the largest financial asset category of the last bubble with a total issued at the top of about $12 trillion.
Real estate is of primary importance to any family's finances when they own the home that they live in. Consumers have been hit with falling prices since as early as June 2006. The numbers show current national losses of between 8% and 30%. This summer we will reach the fourth year of a general trend of falling real estate prices. Against that trend values have increased in the last two quarters.
All of the forecasts made here include those recent increasing values in the projection of future losses. The recent positive increases in value were not enough to counteract serious and sometimes extreme losses in value over the last 3.5 years.
The government has made an enormous assumption in crafting its policy on housing: It assumes that maintaining values is of the utmost importance. It's a tragic mistake.
The proper way to manage a credit bubble is to destroy errant debt issued beyond the capacity of the borrower. This means that some subset of all mortgage debt issued after 1990 is invalid. It's a fiction and a fantasy. It is a dead-weight loss issued to fools who believed in real estate as an investment.
In a November 2009 report I estimated total excessive mortgage issuance of $5 trillion — Losses and Zombie Debt in Residential Mortgages Surpass $5 trillion (See the chart above.).
Given that the most essential element of our competitiveness is based upon the cost of labor, and given that the price of housing is our most expensive cost of living, we cannot live well, compete in the global marketplace, and pay for bubble-priced real estate all at the same time. We have to make a very difficult decision.
The smartest conclusion is obvious. Our highest priority must be to bring down the house of cards. We should encourage foreclosures. We should encourage default. We should bring overhead down. Our first goal must be inexpensive housing. (See Mortgage Default is a Patriotic Duty.)
The most provocative of all of the charts which I have been studying in the last six months suggests the fall is inevitable. All of the government maneuvers will fail because delinquent first mortgages are now equal in number to three times a balanced for-sale inventory (Please see above "Delinquent Mortgages: Will They Overwhelm Supply?").
My prediction is that the leaders at our Treasury and the Fed will finish as the bigger or the biggest fools. They are waging nuclear war to maintain bubble pricing on 129 million housing units (If you are like me, you say that sentence, and you know that the policy is dead wrong.). Only an academic bureaucrat could make such a choice and believe in it. And the financial press has not even one word to say against this lunatic fantasy. The blind cover the dumb and vice versa.
Ben Bernanke and Timothy Geithner prove that book learning makes you dumb and government work makes you slow. Don't put your faith in them or their experience. They haven't spent enough time in the real world.
If you own real estate and you can sell, sell it. If you want to buy, make sure you are staying for 10 years and insist on a great deal. Make sure you can live with losing 10 percent or 20 percent or 30 percent of the price that you pay for your home.
The risk inherent in our current real estate market is far beyond the tolerance of 98% of would-be buyers. That means you. You can get screwed badly if you buy now. Don't do it. Don't put yourself in the poor house.
Click here for more notes and data on the forecast. Please send your suggestions and corrections. If you have a better way of projecting the fall, please email me. I will send the Excel file for you to re-work and then publish your findings. email@example.com

Phenomenal work — I've been forwarding it around. Very compelling argument, Michael. My wife and I am currently renting in White Plains, NY. It is still a hot market that has fallen only 5-10% since the peak. The rents are exhorbitant as well. Very tempting to buy given our rent, but I think we'll wait till the government incentives (FHA, tax credit, low rates) change, so we get a more sane price. Any thoughts on Freddie and Frannie going down the tubes? Is it a matter or whether or when?
Chip Winand permalinkFebruary 1, 2010 7:21 pm
I'm new to your site and thinking but resonated solidly with your assertions. We sold near the top, rented for two years and then bought smaller in mid '09 at 40% off. I'm now told that with our improvements our home is up 6 figures in 8 months (Austin TX). I sense that new "value" could evaporate rather quickly. Jobs and purchasing power are my big concerns. Incredible numbers of workers are getting short work-weeks and pay cuts of 10 – 20% are becoming quite routine. I only see debt driven deflation at work. With baby boomers downsizing and wages stagnant or falling I'm not sure who will be buying all the 4,000+ s.f. homes. Jumbo money rates have already compressed values here. Yesterdays 600K and 800K homes are both the new 500K just because of the need to get the price to fit conforming money. Do you see special dangers in the large home market? Have you written about suburban vs. rural trends and values?

The data from the charts you posted are averaged from . . . which cities? Same sample set as Case Shiller?
I'm particularly interested in the estimates – and your thoughts – on the Dallas market.

If there is large inflation and/or hyper-inflation, then real estate (real) prices will go up! Much better than keeping cash. Any comments?
walt permalinkJanuary 27, 2010 10:22 pm
Since you address your advice to individuals, they should realize that real estate markets are local, not national. Your results may vary. For example, our building boom here in Stockton, CA was based on 2-hour drives each way to higher paying jobs. It is unlikely that house prices will ever rise again as fast as gasoline does.
January 27, 2010 7:44 pm
Once thing to keep in mind about falling home prices, these are median numbers. If you own a home that is at the lower end of the market, like 2.5 average times income, your home will probably not fall much if any in value.
The big drop is in the upper end of the market, so those people who bought mcmansions cannot find move up buyers anymore, or those with bogus income stats.
So, good news for those that own low priced homes. Bad news for those owning homes that cost more than 2.5 a person's average yearly income.

I agree that without extreme government intervention the collapse would have been substantially more cataclysmic. I'd sell in a heartbeat if I did not think the government would hold nothing back and print money till we all drown in order to keep home values from falling to where they should be, particularly in prime areas. My concern is inflation and if I sell, my plan to swoop back in in 2013-2014 could be ruined by government intervention and I'll be locked out of the beach neighborhood I currently live in. Even with the profits, the tax levels at these prices would be unaffordable for me in the long run. Losing my current low tax burden under proposition 13 in California is big part of the calculation.
Anonymous permalinkFebruary 1, 2010 8:29 pm
I agree totally.
I took the money and ran in mid 2004 and am now "locked out" unless I fork over additional money.
To buy an identical house as I sold in the same neighborhood (that is where I want to buy today) I would have to pay about 100K more and my property tax basis would now be 800K instead of 289K.
There are other ways to take advantage of this situation but doing what I did was one of the more stupid things I did.
It was a perfectly logical decision I just had no idea to the lengths my government would go to screw the prudent and reward stupidity.
John S permalinkFebruary 2, 2010 1:34 am
My sister feel's your pain. They waited to buy and even now it is more expensive. I wish I had purchased some land or bought a bigger house when I did. Prices are still high versus people's income. The banks want to enslave us forever. When talking about the federal govt and the banking systems its just a slightly milder version of the Cash Advance business.

Hi everyone,

I am a PhD student at UC Berkeley, and I wanted to add a "turning off idle/underutilized servers" featureĀto our 100 server torque+maui deployment. However, I want to implement this feature using only existing torque+ maui interfaces and extensions ( i,e without modifying the torque or maui source code in any way ).

My proposed way is toĀ

1. monitor the maui queue length , and estimate the number of servers I can switch off.Ā

2. I would then use "pbsnodes -o <nodename>" command to render a certain number of servers offline for scheduling.Ā

3. A bash script would turn the servers off.Ā

The servers would be turned back on (and added to the torque nodes list) when the queue length increases beyond a certain threshold.

I had two questions :Ā

1.ĀIs there any existing open source code which already implements the "turning off idle servers" functionality in torque ?

2. Are there complications that would arise if I implemented the "turning-off idle servers" feature in my proposed way ? [ e.g - Is it possible that after turning off servers, they would lose some state and hence would not get added to the torque <nodes_list> when turned back on? Are there long lived TCP connections which need to be restarted separately ? , etc ]Ā

It would be great if anyone could help.

Thanks a lot,

Arka.

Leona: Filming movie put me through my paces
Leona Lewis felt nervous about working alongside "beautiful Italian girls" in her latest movie.
The British singer stars in the romantic musical, which is set to classic tunes from the '80s.
Plenty of super-fit dancers appear along the way, which Leona admits was a little intimidating at first.
"There were all these beautiful, amazing Italian girls in their bikinis and I was like, 'Oh God...'" she laughed to the UK edition of OK! magazine.
"But before they started shooting we had these intense rehearsals - it was like a bootcamp. So by the time we began filming I felt quite good about myself. There was a gym at the hotel, so I started going a couple of times a week."
However, the 29-year-old insists she didn't start working out just to look good on screen.
"No, it was purely so I wouldn't be the one out of breath person on set," she explained. "I needed to keep up with the dancers."
The UK X Factor winner is known for her healthy attitude and follows a vegetarian diet. She made sure not to deprive herself while working so hard on the movie.
"I wasn't pigging out, but I ate normally," she said. "It would have been silly to try and starve myself and then do all that dancing. I needed the energy."
Leona and the female dancers weren't the only ones showing off their great physiques on screen. There was also plenty of male eye candy, but the star insists her boyfriend Dennis Jauch wasn't fazed.
"No, Dennis totally gets it," she smiled. "Obviously I had to be really close to my on-screen boyfriend and be really kissy. But it wasn't steamy stuff."

Jennifer Lawrence Tapped as New Face of Miss Dior
She's become quite the hot commodity ever since landing the coveted role of Katniss Everdeen, and Jennifer Lawrence has landed another highly sought after gig in the fashion realm.
According to WWD, the 22-year-old Kentucky native has just joined the long line of Tinseltown beauties to be tapped by Dior - with her role being the next face of the fashion house's Miss Dior handbag.
Commenting on the gig, an elated Miss Lawrence said, "It's such a dream to represent an iconic brand that is synonymous with high fashion."
Previous ladies to front Miss Dior include actresses Marion Cotillard and Mila Kunis while Natalie Portman has lent her beauty to the brand's sister company Parfums Christian Dior.

These rankings are not simply based on skill. Players were ranked on their importance to the team. Skill, a player's position, the depth of his position group, the odds he contributes, salary and draft history all play a part in how a player is ranked. More than the ranking itself, hopefully you will learn a little something about each of the 90 players in the process.
No. 66: Odd man out?
The answer to a trivia question is, well, the answer to a trivia question.
Back in to 2009, Robert Francois was an undrafted free agent linebacker who signed with the Minnesota Vikings. When the Vikings signed some guy named Brett Favre, Francois was asked to turn in his playbook.
The other trivia question? OK, maybe it's not quite as interesting. Last season, Francois intercepted two passes and forced a fumble. That's as many turnover plays as the rest of the inside linebackers combined (Desmond Bishop forced two fumbles and D.J. Smith had an interception). Not bad for making two starts.
Francois, however, faces an uphill climb to make the roster. Bishop and Hawk are back, and Smith projects as the No. 1 backup and might even challenge for playing time. In the draft, the Packers gave up three picks to move into the first round to select Terrell Manning. Finally, two special-teams aces, Brad Jones and Jamari Lattimore, were moved from outside linebacker to inside linebacker. Francois, who played outside linebacker for the Packers in 2010, presumably will battle Jones, Lattimore and outside linebackers Dezman Moses, Erik Walden, Frank Zombo and Vic So'oto for two or three backup slots.
No. 67: Not quite a slam dunk
By now, you've probably heard that Dale Moss, an undrafted free agent wide receiver, played basketball for four seasons as South Dakota State before giving football a try in 2011. Not only did the 6-foot-3 Moss run a 4.39 in the 40 with a 41 1/2-inch vertical jump at his pro day, but his three-cone clocking of 6.32 seconds was faster than anyone has ever run at the Scouting Combine.
With just one year of football in college, Moss will be a work in progress, to be sure. But based on sheer physical tools, Moss has a chance to become a superior wide receiver. The Packers would love to stash him on the practice squad for a year to see how much progress he can make.
No. 68: Speedy recovery
Andrew Quarless
Brace Hemmelgarn/US Presswire
"I was growing a lot, growing tremendously," Quarless said during OTAs. "Everything was positive, everything was on the upswing. But I don't like to look back. To me, it is what it is. These things happen in a career. It's all about coming back stronger. That's where my head is at right now. I'm excited. Rehabbing, my leg is bigger than it's ever been."
No. 69: Numbers game
Brandian Ross made quite a name for himself right off the bat last year. An undrafted free agent out of Youngstown State, Ross had a pick-six against Aaron Rodgers during the Family Night Scrimmage. Ross didn't make the team but he grew during his year on the practice squad, and cornerbacks coach Joe Whitt said Ross has been doing "a very, very nice job."
To make the team, Ross is going to need an incredible training camp and preseason because Charles Woodson, Tramon Williams, Sam Shields, Jarrett Bush and second-round pick Casey Hayward are locks to make the team, and last year's fourth-round pick, Davon House, was one of the standouts of the offseason workouts. The Packers typically keep six cornerbacks and Ross is No. 7.
No. 70: In case of emergency
Herbert Taylor was signed late last season to replace an injured Derek Sherrod, and his future in Green Bay hinges on Sherrod's health.
The Packers are expecting Sherrod, last year's first-round pick, to have recovered from last year's broken leg and challenge Marshall Newhouse's status as the No. 1 left tackle. The loser would be the No. 1 backup at both tackle slots, with rookie seventh-round pick Andrew Datko penciled in for a year of seasoning. Taylor's value, obviously, skyrockets if Sherrod isn't ready to go. Taylor played in 18 games for the Chiefs in 2007 and 2008, with that experience giving him a big advantage over Datko if pressed into service.

A knife fight Thursday in Pomona ended with the death of one man and the arrest of his teen brother.
Police received a report of a disturbance and a person armed with a knife in the 200 block of Whitney Avenue at 9:25 p.m., said Pomona police Sgt. William Knight.
They found a 17-year-old boy in front of his home and 24-year-old Victor Aguero nearby, suffering from multiple stab wounds.
Los Angeles County firefighters took the man in an ambulance to an area where he could be picked up by a helicopter, but he died before reaching the landing zone.
Police said the brothers got into a fight for unknown reasons.
"They chased each other with knives," Knight said. "The 17-year-old stabbed his brother multiple times."
Police booked the teen into Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall in Downey on suspicion of homicide. He is being held without bail.
Anyone with information may call homicide detectives at 909-620-2095 or at the tip line, 909-620-2085.

It's a long way from Brooklyn to Big Sur, isn't it? Well, New York based composer (and Philip Glass Ensemble member) David Crowell's work Eucalyptus suggests that the distance can be bridged with a single overtone series. This spectral imbued piece for saxophones allows for frequency pile-ups to suggest an aromatic evergreen grove just off of a Northern California beach: still within earshot of the crashing surf. And if you don't like having this Big Sur inspired programme get in the way of your sonic immersion, it is a lovely and warm aural bath all by itself.
Crowell likes using consorts of instruments, homogeneous groupings (apart from occasional electronic manipulation). Thus, the saxophones of Eucalyptus and its jazzy post-minimal counterpart Point Reyes give way to the mallet instruments of Kaleidoscope. Here, the composer enlists the assistance of percussionist Brian Archinal, who populates the piece with a striking textural makeup of overlapping ringing ostinati.
Archinal is also on hand for "Throw Down your Heart," a work inspired by a documentary in which Bela Fleck described the African roots of the banjo. It features the amadinda, a twelve foot long marimba played by up to six people. Indeed, the piece's busily corruscating mallet-played melodies remind one of an entire shop of banjos and mbiras (thumb pianos) being played all at once. Here, as elsewhere, Crowell's use of layering encompasses the cannily composed with just the right taste of aleatory to allow for a bit of improvisational sounding organicism to zestily season a distinctive sound world.

Individual sanctions can be an important tool in the fight against cartels, as corporate fines are almost never sufficiently high to be an optimal deterrent. A country's decision whether to provide for criminal sanctions depends on several factors, such as the cultural and legal environment and the competition authority's resources. If a country provides for criminal sanctions, relatively short prison sentences appear to be the most

The Genesis Legacy Book includes:
- Entire book of Genesis divided into daily readings, with supplemental scriptures to help you grasp the meaning and biblical context of the passage.
- 5 questions to trigger deeper interaction with Truth + space for personal reflection and notes.
- The Legacy Series provides a theme verse for each book of the Bible. As you memorize these 66 verses over the years, you will be committing to memory the thematic arc of the Bible as a whole.
- A prayer card displaying the theme verse for Genesis and icon for personal prayer time or to display in your home, workspace, car, or anywhere you need a prompt to pray.
- 4 Scripture Cards designed for memorization and sharing.

A second "speed-dating" event for home swappers is planned after the success of the pilot schene held in South Oxhey last month.
Thrive Homes, based in Croxley Green, held the housing association exchange event at ASCEND centre, attracting more than 60 people from across the county.
All the tenants involved wore badges indicating what type of property they had to swap, and what sort of home they were looking for.
This meant people could instantly spot tenants with a home swap which could interest them, and viewings were soon being arranged.
Another event is planned for the summer.

General Manager of Consumer Imaging Services, Sandra Morris said, "Kodak is committed to developing great products and services that unlock images from the mobile phone and at 3GSM we are showing the full range of innovative technology and connectivity to demonstrate how the industry can help meet increasing consumer demand."
Micron Technology, Inc. (Boise, Idaho) just introduced a family of sensors with a 1.75-μ pixel and resolution that ranges from 1.3-to-5.0-megapixels. All capture VGA-format�or better�video at 30 fps. Joining Micron's previously announced 8.0-megapixel image sensor, they maintain picture quality while shrinking pixels and effectively creating a sleeker form-fit factor for today's ultra-thin camera phones.
Digital still cameras benefit from a 5.0-megapixel CMOS image sensor, the MT9P001, which achieves high resolution acquisition at 15 fps in HDTV formats and surpasses traditional CCD-based cameras' performance. Programmable gain, frame rate, exposure time, image mirroring and viewfinder and snapshot modes are incorporated onto the chip.
Micron also announced a new video sensor targeted at the consumer market. The MT9M002, which operates at 60 fps in 720p format with excellent low-noise attributes, features 2.2-μ DigitalClarity technology, 0.22-inch optical format and additional pixel area for image stabilization. All unite to make the MT9M002 ideally suited for compact, high definition camcorders that can function with smaller and less expensive lenses.
Snapping a picture with a camera phone cues NewBay Software Ltd.'s (Dublin, Ireland) PIXOTA client to display a pop-up prompt with simplified choices for sending the image to a predefined blog/album or to another subscriber. PIXOTA also can transmit several images at a time, making it easier to upload multiple pictures. And, by sending files via HTTP rather than MMS, the problem of maintaining full fidelity is solved.

WATCH: Acade Fire frontman goes Kanye at Youtube Awards
Listen to Arcade Fire on iHeartRadio
Arcade Fire's Win Butler did his best Kanye West impression Sunday night at the inaugural YouTube Music Awards.
The frontman interrupted a group of Taylor Swift fans who were accepting the award for YouTube Phenomenon on behalf of the absent country pop superstar.
Butler finished the 2009 MTV VMA spoof by dropping his microphone and walking off stage. But that wasn't his only appearance at the unscripted, live-streamed event. He and the rest of his Arcade Fire bandmates opened the ceremony with a performance of their new track "Afterlife."
Like the other performers, they created a live music video, directed by Spike Jonze and starring actress Greta Gerwig and a group of young dancers.

Arcade Fire score new Spike Jonze film, 'Her'
Listen to Arcade Fire on iHeartRadio
Arcade Fire's highly-anticipated fourth album won't be the only new music they put out this year. The Canadian indie rockers are also set to score director Spike Jonze's new film "Her," which arrives in theaters in November.
A new trailer for the movie hit the Internet on Wednesday and included a revealing "Music by Arcade Fire" note in the credits.
This won't be the first time Jonze and the band have teamed up. The trailer for the director's 2009 movie "Where the Wild Things Are" featured an acoustic version of Arcade Fire's "Wake Up." And in 2011, Jonze returned the favor by directing their short film "Scenes from the Suburbs."
Meanwhile, Arcade Fire's next studio album is due out October 29th. It still doesn't have an official title, although there are rumors it will be called "Reflektor."

In 2009, the government launched its Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP).
At that time, mortgage rates were approximately 200 basis points (2.00%) higher than what they are today.
Despite those higher rates, the typical U.S. homeowner who used a HARP loan to refinance saved approximately $3,000 in mortgage payments per year.
At today's mortgage rates, savings via HARP are markedly higher. Today's typical HARP household saves more than one-third on payments each month, and more than $5,000 annually.
Even better, it's getting easier to get a HARP mortgage approved.Click to see your HARP eligibility (Jul 20th, 2017)
The Home Affordable Refinance Program is run through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which are governed by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA).
The FHFA publishes and maintains an official rulebook for the program, which is sometimes called "The Obama Refi". The rulebook is known as the "HARP guidelines".
HARP guidelines list the minimum eligibility hurdles for U.S. homeowners wanting to use the Home Affordable Refinance Program.
However, despite the existence of an "official" standards list, mortgage lenders often impose their own additional standards, which are tougher than Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's published minimums.
The official term for an additional mortgage approval rule is "investor overlay". Many banks use them in some form or another.
Here's how investor overlays work.
Consider that Fannie Mae's official HARP mortgage guidelines state that a borrower is allowed to have one late mortgage payment in the last 12 months, as long as the late payment was not within the previous six months.
Many HARP lenders have gone one tougher, though. Their HARP loan policies prohibit borrowers from having any late payments in the last 12 months.
The government allows a late-pay, individual mortgage banks may not.
There are other common HARP overlays, too. Some of the more common ones are:
Investor overlays can affect a wide range of qualification standards including payment history, FICO score, and debt-to-income ratios; and, overlays will vary from bank-to-bank.
Just because Wells Fargo enforces a particular overlay, for example, that doesn't mean that Bank of America will enforce the same one. One bank's loan rejection is another bank's "perfect client".
This is why it's smart to get HARP mortgage quotes from more than one lender.Click to see your HARP eligibility (Jul 20th, 2017)
Because of investor overlays, each year, thousands of HARP-eligible borrowers are turned down for no reason other than they applied at "the wrong bank".
If you've been turned down for the HARP program in the past, then, consider applying again. You may get a better outcome -- for several reasons, really.
The first reason to re-apply is that the housing market's recovery is goading banks into approving more loans. When home values rise, banks take smaller losses on foreclosed homes, which affords them the ability to take more risk.
The second reason to apply for HARP again is that bank are beginning to remove their investor overlays.
Loans for borrowers with less-than-perfect credit are getting approved; and homes with a higher loan-to-value are getting approved, too.
Lastly, mortgage rates are very low as compared to when the HARP refinance program launched in 2009.
You may not have realized big savings with a refinance via HARP the first time around. Today, you're going to see it.
There's no restriction against applying for HARP a second -- or even third – time. More than 3.2 million households have used the HARP refinance already.
Think about how much you could save.
Many homeowners who refinance with HARP reduce their monthly payments by one-third, and save tens of thousands of dollars over the lifetime of their loan.

I think some of you are being MUCH too suspicious. I have looked into what
they are doing sufficiently including visiting the project when it was
still at BYU and I believe Mr. Sorenson is doing this for the science and
not for the profit. He already has more money than all of us combined
could spend in our lifetimes.
The consent forms that are signed by participants make it very clear that
the samples can NEVER be shared with any third party without the express
written consent of the participants. If they wish to share my sample with
some unauthorized entity, I will be happy to stand at the front of the
class-action line to get some of Mr. Sorenson's money for violating the
contract and I would not hesitate to sue the recipients for invasion of
Having a database with y-chromosome dna results that can be searched
without being able to identify the exact individual who contributed the
sample is a far cry from having a database of all dna information linked to
names that can be sold to such companies as you suggest. I have no
hesitation in trusting in the integrity and good intentions of Mr.
Sorenson, the members of the project and the project itself. I am still
skeptical that they will achieve what they set out to achieve, but I am
confident they will end up with a valuable tool that all of us may find
Like Dirty Harry said, "Come on. Make my day. Please sell my DNA!"
Frankly, I would be more concerned about the blood samples we all give
periodically to labs through our physicians for testing. Ever wonder what
a profit driven unscrupulous diagnostic lab might be moved to do with the
extra blood? When was the last time you and they signed a form stating
what they could or could not do with your sample? Do you REALLY know? You
might send a sample to see if you have high cholesterol levels, but they
only need a small portion of the sample for that test. How do you know
they don't have a contract with some drug company or intermediary to send
the unused portions for some financial incentive? The insurance companies
have far greater access to this source than they do to some private
research project because they control the revenue flow through the labs.
More likely the labs send the unused blood samples (probably still in the
original vials marked with your name and ID) to a hazardous waste disposal
company. We all "know" how those companies are run from past criminal and
civil cases. We can conjure up visions of mafia thugs or Russian
immigrants who have no scruples running these businesses, although it may
be untrue. Do you think they have changed their spots? How hard do you
think it would be for such a company to package up these samples and sell
them to an insurance company or other entity capable of matching up the
donor to actual insured clients?
Or, when one applies for a Life Insurance policy these days they always
take a blood sample to analyze for possible problems that might cause you
to kick the bucket before they have collected enough money from you. What
do you suppose they do with these samples? Could they possibly run far
more tests than you think? Maybe they keep a sample in the freezer waiting
for technology to catch up so they can run a full DNA analysis on you. Why
would these companies need to get a sample from a genealogy dna testing lab
when they probably already have a sample sitting in their storage freezers.
Want to have a conspiracy theory to worry about? Worry about that.

Heidenhain has introduced the ROD 1930 rotary encoder series for use in mechanically-demanding motion control environments. With exceptionally rugged bearings, this new incremental encoder can withstand radial shaft loads of 200 N and axial shaft loads of 150 N. The shaft load was determined at a maximal permissible speed of 4000 min–1 during a period of 20,000 hours. With high shaft loads and a formidable housing, the ROD 1930 offers an intermediate solution for HEIDENHAIN customers, closing the gap between standard rotary encoders and our more extreme encoders.
The ROD 1930 is available with HTL or HTLs outputs which facilitates easier connection to many standard programmable logic controllers (PLCs). These outputs are commonly used in heavy duty industries such as paper, crane and material handling technologies. The ROD 1930 comes in aluminum housing with a 120mm diameter, and is available with a single- or double-ended shaft of 15mm, with feather key. The housing is rated to IP 66.

text: Cape Town - Whether or not Gary van Aswegen is ready to start after picking up game-time at club level in recent weeks may be the big debating point in the Western Province team selection for Saturday's ABSA Currie Cup showdown with the Blue Bulls. According to the SuperSport website, The team is to be finalized on Wednesday, and Coetzee has hinted that if it doesn't happen this week, it is only a matter of time before Van Aswegen takes over from Demetri Catrakilis, who played for WP in the win over Griquas in Kimberley and the loss to the Lions in Johannesburg.It's not so much a case of whether or not Coetzee rates Catrakilis or not, but the relevance of playing him ahead of a player who will be part of the Stormers' Super Rugby campaign next year. It was recently confirmed that Catrakilis will be linking up with the Southern Kings from November. "That is a very good question and you are right about that," said Coetzee when asked if there was a point to playing Catrakilis when the Currie Cup is being used to develop depth for next year's Super Rugby campaign. "But the thing is it is still important for us to try and win, and so it depends on how ready Gary and Kurt Coleman are. If they are ready to slot in then there is no question that in terms of building for next year, it makes sense for them to be getting game time." Last year Coetzee faced a similar dilemma when he started the domestic season knowing that both centre Johan Sadie and wing JJ Engelbrecht had already signed for the Bulls. As it turned out, Sadie played only a bit part in the campaign, while Engelbrecht played almost every game and ended up as WP's Currie Cup player of the season. "It is a difficult one," conceded Coetzee. "As far as possible we want to use the Currie Cup to increase our depth and get ready for the next Super Rugby season so it doesn't really make sense to play players who aren't going to be part of that. It just depends though on what is available." Coetzee said that Van Aswegen had picked up the necessary game time with Maties and was back in the selection mix, but would not confirm whether or not he would be starting against the Bulls. The young pivot, one of the stars of the successful 2010 WP under-21 team that was coached by John Dobson and Rassie Erasmus, has been plagued by injuries over the past two seasons which have prevented him from getting in the apprenticeship at first class level that Coetzee was hoping he would.

Sen. Bernie Sanders continues to be one of the stand-up guys in the Senate with telling it straight when it comes to the fact that Social Security does not add a dime to our deficit and that if President Obama wants to do something about the deficit, he needs to be cutting that corporate welfare, instead of talking about balancing the budget on the backs of the most vulnerable in our society and our veterans.
Sanders joined Ed Schultz on MSNBC this Friday evening. After Schultz took the viewers through some of the goading by Republicans who are trying to get President Obama to do their dirty work for them and go after our New Deal social safety nets, and a clip of Ronald Reagan explaining that Social Security does not contribute to the deficit, he asked Sanders if he trusted President Obama not to cave into their demands.
Sanders said no, but if enough of us make our voices heard along with the slew of progressive groups who are pushing back hard against these potential cuts, he feels he will be responsive to the voters

Red Pontiac Seed Potatoes (Certified)
Most likely the easiest and most adaptable red potato there is to grow, not to mention the consistent flavor!
Pre-order for spring 2017. We can not ship this variety early.
Certified - Easy and adaptable red potato for home gardening.
Most likely the easiest and most adaptable red potato there is to grow, not to mention the consistent flavor! Attractive deep red skin and eyes, white flesh. The tuber of choice for new potatoes or fresh eating. Red Pontiac came from Florida in 1945 so it grows well in both the South and North regions.
Approximately 5-8 potato seed pieces per pound. Usually 3-4 potatoes that can be cut into more pieces to plant.
Potato Planting Dates
Potatoes may be planted as soon as the ground can be worked in the early spring, but you must use good judgment. The soil should be evenly moist, but not wet or soggy. If the soil is water logged when you dig, not only will you risk "caking" the soil, your seed potatoes will probably rot before they even get started.
A day or two before planting, use a sharp, clean knife to slice the larger seed potatoes into two seeds. Each seed should be at least 1 1/2-2inches in size, and must contain at least 1 "eye" or bud. Smaller potatoes may be planted whole. Over the next couple days the cut side of the potato will form a thick callous over the cuts, which will help to prevent it from rotting once planted.
Spacing in Rows: 8-12 inches
Row Spacing: 18-24 inches
How to Cut a Potato:
IMPORTANT: Potatoes ship early February thru early June. Potatoes will be out of stock from July thru September. Pre-orders will begin October 1st. Any orders made October thru January will ship when appropriate the coming season. Any orders made after your areas appropriate shipping time but before end of May will be shipped out immediately!
|Potato Shipping Schedule
|Shipping Begins
|February - March
|March - April

I am an amateur (yet experienced) photographer living in Rapid City, SD. My first love is shooting in wild/off the beaten path locations.
I would like to network with models to enlarge and refine my portfolio. I'm more than willing to discuss whether job would be paid or tfcd. I'd prefer TFCD as I do this as a fun hobby and don't have a huge expendable income right now. I have done a lot of outdoor photography and would like to work more with models to build both of our portfolios.
I'd also like to network with other photographers for suggestions or tips as I try to improve in my art.

Ruralco revealed on Friday it had emerged with a 10.1 per cent interest in Elders that was worth $8.4 million.
"We have worked very hard in the past few years to get in to the position that we are in," Mr Maher said.
"Elders is in a situation where they could be seen as a target for a multinational. At the end of the day we can stand on the sidelines and hope it works out for us or we can get involved."
Fertiliser and rural services giant Agrium bought market leader Landmark in 2010.
Elders is saddled with $373 million debt at March 31 and while $135 million was trade debt backed by its merchandise, its gearing sits at 58 per cent.
