OSA Applauds Progress in Establishing 2015 as the International Year of Light
International Year of Light delegation members during their visit to the U.N. General Assembly Chamber on May 16, 2013 (Back Row L to R: H. Philip Stahl, John M. Dudley, Anthony M. Johnson, Yanne Chembo Kouomou. Front: Ana María Cetto).

WASHINGTON, June 5, 2013—The Optical Society (
) today commended the progress made in establishing 2015 as the International Year of Light, as optics leaders from around the world convened to present the aims of the initiative to representatives from United Nations Member States and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) at an informational meeting at the United Nations Headquarters in New York on May 16. OSA has been working with partners and supporters to gain approval by the United Nations to declare 2015 the International Year of Light.
A delegation of senior optics and photonics professionals effectively described the goals and activities of the International Year of Light at the meeting, focusing on the role that optics and photonics plays in addressing issues of sustainable development and in promoting science education. They also considered emerging applications in archaeology and cultural heritage, and described the cross-cutting nature of the Year of Light themes in diverse areas from art to philosophy.
The delegation included Ana María Cetto from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM); John Dudley, president of the European Physical Society (EPS); Anthony M. Johnson, OSA past president and representative of the
International Centre for Theoretical Physics
; Yanne Chembo Kouomou from the African Physical Society; and H. Phillip Stahl, president-elect of SPIE.
"Light is an enabling technology that provides us with endless possibilities and stunning applications in the fields of medicine, biophotonics, communications, and energy, as well as exciting emerging applications in the analysis and preservation of civilizations and history," said Johnson. "Sharing this critical information with the world is a worthy imperative indeed."
An important outcome of the meeting was the decision to ensure that the International Year of Light highlights both the science and the technological applications of light, emphasizing the key role of photonics as an enabling technology to solve problems of global concern.
"The International Year of Light will help communicate the importance of light and optical technologies in our everyday lives and future growth around the world," said OSA CEO Elizabeth Rogan, who serves on the International Year of Light's Advisory Board. "OSA applauds our industry peers in the progress being made toward widespread adoption of the initiative, and we stand ready to support further activities in the coming months."
The International Year of Light is supported by a growing number of partner societies, commissions, and centers, including OSA, EPS, the American Physical Society, the Institute of Physics, the International Commission on Optics, SPIE, and many others. Mexico, Ghana, New Zealand and the Russian Federation, along with more than 30 countries as cosignatories, submitted the International Year of Light proposal to the UNESCO executive board late last year, which led to UNESCO's
official adoption
in October 2012. The Information Meeting in New York last month has now set in place the procedure toward adoption by the full United Nations General Assembly, anticipated for later this year.
About OSA
Uniting more than 180,000 professionals from 175 countries, the Optical Society (OSA) brings together the global optics community through its programs and initiatives. Since 1916 OSA has worked to advance the common interests of the field, providing educational resources to the scientists, engineers and business leaders who work in the field by promoting the science of light and the advanced technologies made possible by optics and photonics. OSA publications, events, technical groups and programs foster optics knowledge and scientific collaboration among all those with an interest in optics and photonics. For more information, visit

Water shortages and November frosts have taken their toll on Victoria's fresh produce market, with the prices of vegetables and summer fruits more than doubling.
The prices of vegetables such as broccoli and cauliflower have risen steeply because of an acute shortage of produce from Werribee growers, the main suppliers to Victoria and NSW at this time of year.
Vegetable harvests at Werribee have almost halved in the wake of restrictions on water allocations. Wholesale prices have doubled, leading shops to raise their prices. Broccoli is selling for about $5 a kilogram, up from $3 a year ago, and cauliflowers are up to $4 each, compared with about $1.50 last year.
The shortage was compounded by harvesting problems in NSW and Queensland, Vegetable Growers Association of Victoria chief executive Tony Imeson said. "Unfortunately, when a thing like lack of water hits Australia all along the east coast, it affects everybody," he said.
Australian Chamber of Fruit and Vegetable Industries president Bill Chalk said the prices of some vegetables would drop within a few weeks when Tasmanian produce hit the shelves.
Suppliers and consumers of summer stone fruits have already been hit hard, with November frosts destroying crops in the Goulburn Valley. Nectarine and cherry supplies have been severely curtailed and stocks of apricots are virtually non-existent. Apricots have sold for about $8 a kilogram this year, compared with $4 last January; nectarines are $5 ($3 last year).
Mr Chalk said shoppers should consider other fruits and vegetables. Watermelons and mangoes were plentiful, and good value, as were vegetables such as corn and zucchini.
Melbourne grocer Dom Audino said he had recently returned from an interstate trip where he saw nectarines and tomatoes for $10 a kilogram.
"I was shocked," he said. "I think Melbourne's the cheapest of the lot."

Thu. October 24, 2013 | Kelly Parsons
TAMPA — Kaitlyn Sibson saw her team's season — and her career at Plant — flash before her eyes Wednesday.
No. 4 Wharton had easily taken the first game of the Class 8A, District 7 semifinal from the top-seeded Panthers, and the Wildcats jumped to a 7-3 lead early in the second.
"This is my last chance to do anything," said Sibson, a senior. "It was a little scary."
Wharton kept the threat of an upset alive for much of the evening but in a win-or-go-home match, the Panthers pulled it together to top the Wildcats 17-25, 25-18, 25-18, 25-18. Plant will play No. 2 Bloomingdale — which beat No. 3 Newsome 25-17, 26-28, 25-18, 25-19 in the first semifinal — on its homecourt in tonight's district final.
Plant coach Jessica Lamm said her team's mistakes were largely due to a lack of communication. After the Panthers dropped their first game, Lamm said she didn't have any great words of wisdom for her team before it took the court for the second; she had already said everything there was to say.
"Everybody knows what they're supposed to be doing," she said. "They know what errors they're making and how to fix it. It's just going to be if they can mentally execute it on the court."
The Panthers allowed Wharton to go on scoring runs all night, including one in Game 4 when the Wildcats broke a 6-6 tie by scoring the next five points. Big swings from outside hitters Ansley Gould and Sibson, though, pulled the Panthers back up. Sibson led Plant with 19 kills and 17 digs, and libero MC Shival added 22 digs.
Plant's playoff potential seemed questionable in the early going, but just moments earlier Bloomingdale clinched its first postseason spot in two years. The Bulls, led by outside hitter Karissa Rhoades' 25 kills and 11 digs, missed the playoffs last year when they lost to Plant 3-2 in the district semifinals.
Tonight Bloomingdale (16-9) will face the Panthers, a team it lost to twice in the regular season.
The Panthers (16-6) swept Bloomingdale in the first meeting but Rhoades helped the Bulls battle back in the second to force a fifth game.
The Panthers know their next opponent is peaking at the right time.
Bloomingdale coach Margeaux Sinibaldi hopes that upward trajectory brings her team not only a district title, but also a new attitude.
"Plant has a tradition. Durant has a tradition. Bloomingdale doesn't have a tradition," Sinibaldi said. "So they have to believe in it, and then start it."

LIHF MinistriesNew JerseyAge: Under 18Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Good Read!!May 29, 2012LIHF MinistriesNew JerseyAge: Under 18Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5The title of this book reveals its central thesis, the way to effectively build God's kingdom is through "warfare with the Devil." According to Okoro, crushing the Devil involves taking the offensive, in prayer, against the demonic principalities and powers which are at war with God's kingdom. In his book, he expounds on the fight and the force we should use to get what is truly ours; blessings and prosperity. We must claim the gifts stolen from us by Satan, and retrieve them back into our lives. He gives us all the answers in this book, which is a good teaching for Christians and those trying to find their way to the Throne of Grace. Once you pick up this book, its hard for you to put it down. Your eyes are just opened to one thing after another. Filled with knowledge and TRUTH, every Christian and should have a copy of this book as their guide to warefare. I am an avid reader and this book has touched me in a way that not many books have. I especially like the chapter on "Preparation for Battle: The A-Z of spiritual warfare". Okoro's exhortation enabled me to walk away with the conviction that we must take seriously the fact that we are involved in spiritual warfare and, because evangelism treads on the enemy's turf, it must be accompanied by fervent prayer in order to produce great results. Scripturally well-balanced, the book is written in easy to read and understand layman's terms, with a user-friendly format, filled with practical application. I received new insight into spiritual warfare that will forever change my mindset. The emphasis given to prayer and holiness is commendable. I love it!! An ideal Birthday gift for a good friend.
Heather B5 Stars Out Of 5Full of TruthMay 17, 2012Heather B"Crushing the Devil" is no light read, and that's a good thing! As I journeyed through the chapters of this book I was struck with more knowledge and more truth in my life about God's word and the lies that the devil is circulating through this world. I love that the author, Pedro Okoro, "crushes the devil" with nothing but absolute TRUTH. The words in this book are truths that every Christian and non Christian needs to hear. Not only does this book spread the truth with love and grace it is also a wonderful encouragement to the body of Christ. I give " Crushing the Devil" 5 out of 5 stars!
Samantha Ryan Chandler5 Stars Out Of 5"Expect great things from God"May 17, 2012Samantha Ryan ChandlerQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5The title of my review resonates with my heart as this was clearly stated in Crushing the Devil. I am a Christian author. After reading this amazing book, I want more....more of God and more knowledge of God's ways. This tightly wound book, overflowing with scriptures gives an understanding in concise ways on how earth operates.
I have read a plethora of books on spiritual warfare. Having said this, I absorbed another perception of how to fight Satan from reading Crushing the Devil. I recommend reading it more than once, taking notes; as it moves with great wisdom and tools in how to defeat the enemy. If you are a child of God you will have an encounter with Satan. He comes to destroy the testimony of God's children and make us doubt the goodness of God. But if God is for you, then it is impossible to fail.
The tactics and strategy used by the Devil are explained in great detail. My regret is that I am limited to giving only 5 stars to this great read!

Tell us a little about yourself. I moved from Nigeria to the UK in 1996. I was named the ACAS Employer of the Year (UK Trade & Investment/Black Enterprise Awards, 2004), and was a legal columnist (the Voice newspaper, London 2006).
I am the Pastor of New Covenant Church, in Wallington, UK near where my live with my wife and two daughters.
What was your motivation behind this project? Far too many Christians are struggling in their day-to-day living ~ Many are defeated, bent and broken by life and the devil! Not many are enjoying the fullness of life promised by Jesus. CRUSHING THE DEVIL is an attempt to change that by helping God's people live victoriously in Christ Jesus.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? My prayer, desire and hope is that CRUSHING THE DEVIL will inspire and challenge Gods people to live victoriously in Christ and CRUSH the devil in their everyday lives!
How were you personally impacted by working on this project? Oh gosh!!! The devil tried to stop the project ~ There were so many attacks but each time God gave the victory ~ God is faithful, He neither leaves nor forsakes us!
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? In my Christian life and ministry I have been influenced by Bishop TD Jakes, Rev Dr Paul Jinadu, Rev Dr Hugh Osgood and Rev Maxine Johnson.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: "CRUSHING THE DEVIL" dares you to take God at His Word because winning the battle doesn't require physical brawn, but spiritual brains!

There are two important factors to mull over, when thinking about where do phone calls fit in the customer journey in this new omni-channel world. First, we need to consider the customer journey itself, in detail. And next, the growing number of communication channels that are biting at the heels of the traditional customer call.
Knowing who your customers are is important, but understanding the current customer journey is what will help your business to provide exceptional customer service. If you haven't got the full picture you could be missing a trick. From the moment that consumers discover your business, right through to them, hopefully, becoming an advocate for your company, there are increasingly new interaction points dotted along the way.
Chances are you have a lot of the information already. For example, the marketing team may have insights into how customers choose your products. But what many businesses are missing is a consolidated take on the complete 2016 customer journey.
Taking an up-to-the-minute look at the buyer journey will help your business to identify the latest key interactions that customers have with your business. It gives call teams a useful insight into the customer's feelings, motivations and expectations at each of these moments, and better able to anticipate the tone or mode needed to conduct the conversation if phone is the chosen option at that point.
There are tools to help you produce a customer journey map which will teach your business more about its buyers. Smaply enables you to create customer personas, and then make a map detailing each experience with your business. A visual display of each moment sits alongside the emotions that the different customer types might experience at each stage. Ultimately this can help businesses anticipate customers' reactions.
Your customer journey map will be populated with regularly changing touchpoints. Having gained a deeper understanding of the customer psyche at each of these moments in early 2016, this can inform which channels of communication are provided to customers at each step. For example, at stages in the journey where the map suggests that a customer might be confused or angry, it would be wise to make phone calls available.
The number one requirement for customers, when contacting call centres, is for their problem to be resolved quickly. A two-way conversation will make it possible for a customer service rep to probe and ask follow-up questions and a disgruntled customer can be placated. The latter may be particularly preferable over a public exchange on social media.
Conversely, also consider where phone calls could now be replaced by other channels. Digital touchpoints could be utilised for straightforward customer service, such as dealing with general queries about products and services. This would free-up the call centre team to focus their energies on complaints and upselling.
Research shows that there is high demand for customer service on social channels – in the space of two years, businesses on Twitter saw an increase of 2.5x more tweets from consumers – so it needs to feature at the right moments in the customer survey journey.
Though a customer may initially contact you on one channel, they may follow up with another. A customer database – such as Zendesk, or Freshdesk – is essential for ensuring that customer interactions are integrated and managed in one central hub. This will help customer service teams to provide the optimum support.
It can equip customer call teams, in particular, with background information to help them upsell and get the customer back into the sales funnel.
The key is to provide choice, allowing the customer to contact your business in whatever way they desire is a step towards providing a satisfying customer experience. Are all those possible channels as optimised as they can be at the moment?
It's very hard, even today, for businesses to know when a customer calls exactly where they are in the cycle, or what their blocker is likely to be. There's always a slight risk that if there is a fantastic single customer view in place, the customer can actually be a bit freaked out at the detail you know about them and their activity in engaging with your brand.
On balance, however, most people tend to want their query dealt with as quickly, seamlessly and politely as possible so they can get on with their day. So would welcome you having data on what their question is going to be, and having solutions close to hand.
For instance, following mergers, acquisitions and other challenges, Prudential UK found its customer data to be fragmented, leading to issues in serving their customers effectively. The financial services company used Trillium Software to integrate their data and create a single customer view, resulting in a consistent and more effective approach to customer service.
After creating a customer service map and rethinking communication channels, compare customer retention and satisfaction, as key metrics, over a period of a month.
This can be measured via your customer database, to see if there has been an improvement. Hone in on call metrics, but also compare measurements across all customer service touchpoints to gain an overall picture.

Encouraging Austinites to saddle up
January 08, 2014
by Nikki Javurek, PeopleForBikes government relations manager
This year, the highlight of my holiday season wasn't the food or the presents (although, let's be honest, the cookies and gift cards definitely weren't bad), it was being able to be a part of the launch of Austin's new bike sharing system, Austin B-Cycle.
After months of logistical work and years of planning, Austin B-Cycle launched its first fleet of bikes on Saturday, December 21, 2013. PeopleForBikes Vice President of Government Relations, Jenn Dice, and I were able to be part of the celebrations to roll out bike sharing in Austin.
Starting bright and early (well, not quite bright, because it's still pretty dark at 7am in Austin, especially during the winter solstice), Jenn and I, along with a handful of awesome Austin B-Cycle and PeopleForBikes volunteers, got to be the first people to ride the red cruiser bikes as we moved them from the office where they had been built to the stations located around downtown. Overnight, Austin had received quite a bit of rain, but it turned to a tiny mist for a couple of hours while we caravanned around town on the B-Cycles. Riding bikes through the quiet city in the misty early morning was such an amazing experience because it gave each of us a little sense of ownership of this great system that will be part of changing the way folks get around Austin for years to come.
Our crew getting ready to distribute the last bikes on the morning of the launch.
After we rode all of the bikes to their stations, we went to the launch press conference. Initially scheduled to be held in a park near the Texas State Capitol along with an inaugural ride, because of the rain, it moved inside to the gorgeous GSD&M building. It was a great chance to hear from local leaders, including Congressman Lloyd Doggett, City Councilmen Chris Riley and Mike Martinez, David Rockwell and Craig Staley, strong leaders in bringing a bike sharing system to Austin. It was easy to see and hear the excitement that everyone felt for this system finally launching and all of the hard work from people throughout the community coming to fruition.
Congressman Lloyd Doggett speaks at the Austin B-Cycle launch.
Later that evening, PeopleForBikes sponsored a launch party to celebrate the outstanding work that the Austin B-Cycle staff did leading up to the successful launch and thank the volunteers, board members, community members and City of Austin employees that helped make bike sharing in Austin a reality. Held at BoConcept downtown, we were able to wrap up the day with good food, good company and the music of a local duo, Dawn & Hawke.
Sweet treats to celebrate an exciting day for Austin.
The Austin B-Cycle fleet, which has 110 bikes between 11 stations, will be expanding to 400 bikes at 40 stations throughout Austin by March 1, 2014, just in time for the SXSW festival. So far, in the less than three weeks that Austin B-Cycle has been open, riders have taken more than 2,100 trips, ridden 1,400 miles, burned 500,000 calories, and offset 11,900 pounds of carbon dioxide (if the trips would have otherwise been made by car). PeopleForBikes is proud to be part of it all!blog comments powered by Disqus

Does it prove you can sell a Democratic governor anything by saying it will help education, or does it prove she thinks she can sell the voters anything by saying it will help education?
Why does the State even have a say in it? It is the CHEROKEE reservation, after all. Sovereign nation and all.

To which chung writes "that the graduate's exchange of gratis labour for recognition in realising something like the ginger bread house is part of the spectrum of shrewd procurement that gets you a starchitect's remaindered maya shape at the other end of the scale."

 In a feature entitled A Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Medicine Go Down, Chris Hildrey, visited the Brunswick Centre site of the Incredible Edible Gingerbread House - a life-size gingerbread house created by alma-nac, on behalf of the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity. Besides the child-like fun and available sweets what really excited Chris about this project was the fact that architects were doing it. He concluded, "This is why seeing a gingerbread house in a London basement can get me excited: it makes me realise that maybe all that design education doesn't need to be put to the side after all. That perhaps, after all is said and done, there's the chance to be a designer with this degree. But what's more, with this divergence seeming to run along the dividing line between larger and smaller practices, it's important and liberating to know that a conscious choice can exist on which route to take."

Most tastings are populated with razor-slim society girls who are determined to be seen at the tasting and taste nothing. Then they tell the chef how much they adore his new edibles and go back home and starve themselves for the rest of the night.
A few days after I'd gotten back from Cannes, Julie and I attended just such an event on the Lower East Side. China Bar is a retro-inspired Asian restaurant serving 1970's Chinese food in an ultra-modern space. Everyone told the chef that his deep fried duck ribs were ''exquisite.'' They would. They hadn't tried them.
Muffy went too far though. She told the celebrated chef ''your wontons are better than at Mr. Chow's,'' which was just a total falsehood. I don't approve of lies, unless it's for a good cause like helping people.
I mean Julie tells the best lies, like when she's raising money for her school's charity, she tells donors that, you know, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones are opening a new wing, when in actual fact she's opening the new wing. But telling an impressionable young cook he's a genius when his food should be at the bottom of the Hudson River is just plain cruel.

Most kids rehearse in a high school gym. But thanks to the connections of one of our ladies, our budding Tommy Tunes will be warbling their off-key renditions of ''Tomorrow'' on the same stage where ''Man of La Mancha'' premiered. My hardest job today may be resisting making jokes about ''The Impossible Dream.''
Just as we're settled into the seventh row of the theater -- best seats I've ever had -- Vincent flounces in wearing a purple cape and a Sherlock Holmes hat. Kind of the cross-dressing equivalent of ''Phantom of the Opera'' meets ''Hound of the Baskervilles.'' I wonder if the wardrobe mistresses on either show noticed anything missing.

Morgan paced anxiously in his foyer as his lawyer, Sy Hammerman, wrapped up a call to the D.A., who thankfully happened to be a law school and squash buddy from their New Haven days.
''Thanks, pal. Okay, Jasper, sounds great . . . and send my love to Ellen. . . . Terrific, see you then. Bye.'' He hung up, sighed, and turned to his client, giving him a supportive pat on the back and a look as if to say ''no sweat'' Morgan looked relieved.
''We're in the clear,'' Sy said, smiling. ''Let's go get her.''
The two walked from the Vances' apartment three blocks to the 19th Precinct on 67th Street between Lexington and Third. The red-brick facade was accented by cop-car blue window ledges, and walking up to the attractive building one would never guess there were thugs inside. (Although the hordes of parked squad cars might be a giveaway.)
This wasn't a standard New York ''Law and Order''-style precinct with greasy perps being dragged around in cuffs -- there were the occasional violent criminals, sure, but mostly it was the jurisdiction where the white-collar ilk resided.

John Shepard downed several warm, and entirely unfamiliar, gulps of grappa, which caused him to narrate his adventures in a single loquacious rush. His dinner companions -- companions! -- were soon aware of everything that had happened to him aboard the Cleveland Limited, where he'd gotten no more than a couple of hours' sleep sitting up in the club car.
They also learned how he'd found himself a room for a couple of nights at the Railroad Y.M.C.A., which he couldn't believe was actually on Park Avenue, because he knew all about Park Avenue, whereas the average person in Greencastle, even a professor like his father, still thought all the fancy people in New York lived on Fifth Avenue.
Harris and Betty and the rest of the table further learned about the hour John had just spent walking through Times Square, looking for the neon sign of the kitten with the spool of thread, which he'd seen pictures of but guessed must now be gone. He'd lost count of all the jewelry merchants and costume repairers and joke sellers whose windows he'd gone past -- never mind the theatres! -- before figuring out that New York, if you wanted to get a real idea of it, was better off seen from a distance than close up.

The first thing I did was return my windbreaker to the closet. While I was there, I opened up my hidden compartment -- easy enough, if you know how -- and stowed my burglar's tools and the gloves. I made myself a cup of tea and sat in front of the television set. ''The West Wing'' was history, and ''Law and Order'' was already in its second half, with prosecutor Jack McCoy pulling a dirty trick in an overzealous try for a conviction.
Once upon a time TV cops and D.A.'s were all good guys, and then there was a stretch where some of them were bad guys, and now the medium and the viewers have matured to the point where a character can be both at once.
Something unrelated to the story kept me watching even as it made me lose track of the storyline. There was an extra, one of the dozen folks in the jury box, who looked like a woman I'd had a very brief fling with a couple of years ago. I hadn't laid eyes on her since, and had in fact lost track of her entirely.
And I couldn't tell if it was her or not. She'd done a little acting, although she hadn't gotten very far with it. She'd also done a little writing and a little singing, but what she'd done the most of, and what had kept her in panty hose and eyeliner, was waitressing.
''Law and Order'' is filmed in New York, not California, which is one reason the supporting actors and bit players on the show look like actual human beings, so it was by no means unlikely for a New York-based singer/writer/actor/waitress to turn up in the show's jury box.Continue reading the main story

Tom Borelli Discusses the Stimulus on WBAL-Baltimore Saturday Morning - Listen Live From Anywhere!
Image via WikipediaBy David Almasi:
Tom Borelli, PhD, director of the National Center's Free Enterprise Project, will be a guest of Bruce Elliott on WBAL-Baltimore at 8:35 am eastern on Saturday (February 7) to discuss the Senate's so-called economic stimulus legislation.
In a press release earlier this week, Tom said about the legislation:In reality it's a left-wing spending plan masquerading as economic stimulus. Only about 5 percent of the current bill will be used for infrastructure costs while millions of dollars are earmarked for other pet projects, such as renovations for the Department of Commerce headquarters, digital television coupons, the National Endowment for the Arts and the liberal group ACORN...In the Baltimore-Washington area, WBAL can be found at 1090 AM.
The plan is really a rewards program for the left-wing groups that got Obama elected. The only thing stimulating about this plan is the anger it's arousing among Americans.
You can also listen to Tom from anywhere in America by going to the WBAL web site and clicking the "Listen Live" tab that can be found at the top left of the page.

WASHINGTON (Jul. 16)
The State Department today indicated to Congress its support for a bill to allow admission of refugees in the United States outside the regular immigration quota, on special parole. However, it recommended that the bill should limit such admission to 10, 000 a year.
Speaking for the State Department, John W. Hanes, head of the Consular Section, told a House Immigration Subcommittee today that it is very important to enact some legislation at this session of Congress to help relieve the plight of refugees. He was testifying on a bill recommending the admission of refugees under special procedures each year. The hearings on the bill will continue.

Our hair normally goes through a "resting phase." It happens about every three years and lasts about three months before our hair starts to grow again. During this resting phase, more hairs than usual fall out, and our hair looks thinner. This process is called "telogen effluvium." It can be brought on quicker by stress, starting earlier and lasting longer in the natural cycle of hair growth and rest.
These factors can also cause hair thinning:
- It could be inherited
- Certain medications, including many antidepressants.
- Hormone changes after childbirth or trauma such as surgeries (usually about 6 months after)
- Scalp problems such as psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis
- Physical stress on hair roots, such as braiding hair or pulling it back in a pony tail
- Certain medical conditions, such as thyroid problems
Mioxidil (Rogaine) helps some people. It's an over-the-counter medication that you apply to your scalp. But results are mixed. For men, oral finasteride (Propecia) can be helpful. The pharmaceutical community is working on more effective hair growth products as we speak.
There is no "magic bullet" to jump start hair growth. But taking good care of your body and keeping up a healthy and hopeful attitude can help.

By John W. Barry, The Poughkeepsie (N.Y.) Journal
BETHEL, N.Y. Playing an electric guitar that seemed as charged and as amped as the sold-out crowd of 15,000, 15-year-old Conrad Oberg of Florida opened the 40th anniversary Woodstock concert at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts Saturday by playing the instrumental version of The Star-Spangled Banner that Jimi Hendrix made famous in August 1969.
The crowd of mostly Baby Boomers stood for the national anthem, raised their arms and flashed peace signs with their fingers — a symbol of hope and defiance that has remained timeless for more than four decades.
40 YEARS LATER: Havens performs iconic Woodstock song
Bethel Woods sits on the original Woodstock Music & Art Fair site in Sullivan County and launched a weekend of anniversary events Friday with two performances by festival veteran Richie Havens.
Big Brother and the Holding Company, members of which backed Janis Joplin at Woodstock, delivered a set that included riveting renditions of Down on Me, Piece of My Heart, Summertime and a singalong with the crowd on Me and Bobby McGee.
Another Woodstock veteran, Country Joe McDonald, served as master of ceremonies for the concert and introduced Big Brother, then returned later to read the names of local soldiers who died in the Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan wars. McDonald, a U.S. service veteran himself, then delivered his Woodstock anthem, the I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die Rag.
And just as he did at Woodstock — famously captured in the Woodstock documentary — McDonald opened the song by asking the crowd to spell out an expletive: "Give me an F." And just like in the movie, members of the crowd stood up, clapped their hands and sang along, putting particular emphasis on the lyrics, "Whoopee/We're all gonna die."
"It reminded me of the days when we were really protesting this sort of thing," said Paul Salzberg, 57, of Lake Huntington, N.Y.
Country Joe, in between Canned Heat and Ten Years After, played the 1960s protest anthem For What It's Worth, Woody Guthrie's This Land is Your Land and Coming Into Los Angeles, which Arlo Guthrie performed at Woodstock.
One of the big showstoppers of the day, a song that spanned the 40-year chasm separating Aug. 15, 1969 from Aug. 15, 2009, was Canned Heat's performance of Goin' Up the Country, which played during the opening of the Woodstock documentary.
"It was fabulous," said Jean Hannigan, 46, of Beacon, N.Y., who hopped to the beat. She wore flowers in her hair, peace-sign earrings, a shirt with a peace sign and sunglasses with heart-shaped lenses. "Awesome. Beautiful."
Asked why she turned out for the event, she said, "I was 6 when this happened, and I'm 46 and I'm here. This is the greatest ever."
At the beginning of the show, Sam Yasgur, son of Max Yasgur, who owned the farm land on which Woodstock was held, spoke to the crowd: "He would have been overjoyed that four decades later, you and hundreds of thousands of others continue to have fun and music, and nothing but fun and music, on this beautiful site. "
A mellow tailgate scene was underway in the parking lots hours in advance of the opening performance, and streams of people walked the roads on the perimeter of Bethel Woods.
Several dozen gathered at the iconic Woodstock monument at the corner of West Shore and Hurd roads, near where the stage sat during Woodstock.
Concertgoers spread out on blankets and relaxed in lawn chairs that Bethel Woods rented for $5 each. Some in the crowd seemed oblivious to the music, playing with children on a large field over a ridge from the concert pavilion, or simply taking in what seemed like an endless view of rolling fields.
Michael Lang, one of the promoters who staged the 1969 event, introduced his 8-year-old twin sons the site and took them to The Museum at Bethel Woods.
"I spent a lot of my heart and soul here," he said.
Interest in the anniversary has been "unbelievable," Lang said. "You know why I think this one is so big — because of what's going on in the world and the country. Because of Obama being in the White House, the similarities in the times and the wars, it's resonating pretty strongly for people."
Hours before he was scheduled to close the concert, Levon Helm, who played Woodstock with The Band, recalled, "The first time we came, it was just another gig.
"This many years later, it's an event — it's a historic event. I'm happy to get to play."

'12-12-12' Concert for Sandy Relief Plays Madison Square Garden
It was announced today that Clear Channel Media and Entertainment, The Madison Square Garden Company and The Weinstein Company -- the same group that produced and sponsored the historic 9/11 benefit "The Concert for New York City" -- have come together once again to present "12-12-12" (A Concert For Sandy Relief). The special one night only live music event will help provide assistance to the millions of people throughout the tri-state area who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. "12-12-12" (A Concert For Sandy Relief) will occur on December 12, 2012 at Madison Square Garden in New York. More details on the event and the artist line-up will be released in the coming days. All money raised will be administered directly to those who need it most, through the Robin Hood Relief Fund.
As the tri-state region fully realizes the true scope of Sandy's stunning and acute devastation on the coastal areas of Long Island, Queens, particularly Breezy Point and the Rockaways, Staten Island and New Jersey, the enormous task of rebuilding both the infrastructure and thousands of shattered lives becomes dauntingly clear. Robin Hood - New York City's largest poverty fighting organization - has re-established the Robin Hood Relief Fund, which it spearheaded following 9/11, to help those most affected by Hurricane Sandy.
The needs are enormous: Sandy has created a devastating short and long-term housing crisis, with tens of thousands of people, including many first-responders, in need of significant rebuilding assistance. Many victims of Sandy are undocumented, non-English speaking residents who are especially vulnerable during a crisis, particularly relating to navigating complicated insurance and legal requirements. Thousands of New York City schoolchildren have lost essential tools, such as books, computers and supplies, while also enduring displacement, with their schools either damaged or turned into emergency shelters. Food banks throughout the region are struggling to maintain their daily complement of services, as they dramatically increase their operations to feed the huge influx of people affected by the storm. Additionally, the psychological scars of Sandy will linger for years to come, with those affected in need of ongoing emotional counseling and support.

Sambosas (Afghan Meat Turnover)
Recipe by Dr. Tastegood
This is a traditional Afghan appetizer, great for parties, a very simple dish that if you ask 100 Afghan chefs you'll get 100 slightly different recipes. This is the one my family always made, and paired it with my yogurt sauce(check my other recipes) for dipping.
Top Review by Zehbah
chocaholiccuteyeh seems confused. These are clearly not bolani. I added a bit of tumeric and cumin for flavor. I also substituted Filo dough for the wonton wrappers and baked instead of fried, my family prefers this as well though it's a bit more of a hassle b/c you have to roll out the dough and cut pieces.
See Discussion:2 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb ground beef (ground chuck is best)
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 small yellow onion
- 1 (8 ounce) package wonton wrappers (any size will work)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon ground cardamom (to taste)
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (to taste)
- salt & pepper
- vegetable oil, for deep frying
- yogurt, sauce for dipping
Directions See How It's Made
- Brown ground beef in a non-stick pan, seasoning with salt and pepper. When its just cooked through, drain on paper towels to dispose of excess grease. Return beef to pan, along with enough drained oil so it's moist, add the cardamom, cayenne, crushed/chopped garlic and the finely chopped onion. Cook until the onion & garlic is softened and spice is fragrant. Remove from heat and cool.
- To form the sambosas, take about a tablespoon (if using the small wontons, more if using the egg roll size), not too much, ensuing that you can fold the wonton over into a triangle without the filling falling out. Brush one side of the wonton with water at the edge to make a tight seal, using either your fingers or tines of a fork to do this. Make all the sambosas and keep on a sheet covered with paper towels to prevent sticking. You can do all this ahead of time and store covered with Plastic Wrap in the fridge till ready to cook.
- When ready to finish the sambosas, put a nonstick pan or pot onto med/high heat and add enough oil for shallow frying, about half to 3/4 an inch of oil should do it. Shallow fry in batches till golden brown, and drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Sprinkle lightly with salt and serve, best when hot but are good at room temp too. I serve them with my family's chilled yogurt sauce(see other recipe). Not healthy but delicious, even my southern wife and family loves them!
- Enjoy!

YET, yet, ye downcast hours, I know ye also;
Weights of lead, how ye clog and cling at my ankles!
Earth to a chamber of mourning turnsI hear the oerweening, mocking voice,
Matter is conquerormatter, triumphant only, continues onward.
Despairing cries float ceaselessly toward me,
The call of my nearest lover, putting forth, alarmd, uncertain,
The Sea I am quickly to sail, come tell me,
Come tell me where I am speedingtell me my destination.
I understand your anguish, but I cannot help you,
I approach, hear, beholdthe sad mouth, the look out of the eyes, your mute inquiry,
Whither I go from the bed I recline on, come tell me:
Old age, alarmd, uncertainA young womans voice, appealing to me for
A young mans voice, Shall I not escape?

Pirates notebook: Barmes back, gets start at SS
Shortstop Clint Barmes made his first start Tuesday night since he strained his left groin during batting practice in early July.
"It definitely feels like it's been awhile, up here especially," said Barmes, who played a handful of games on a rehab assignment with Double-A Altoona and Triple-A Indianapolis before coming off the disabled list Monday.
Barmes felt a pop when he made a backhand stop and throw during batting practice. His left groin immediately tightened up and started to hurt, he said.
Part of his rehab assignment involved trying to get his timing back at the plate and going one day on, one day off before playing back-to-back days to get his body in game shape. He also wanted to make a play like the one on which he was injured.
"It's for sure in the back of your head, but it was nice to get a ball and get a chance to make a play like that, backhand throw across," said Barmes, who last played June 29 against the New York Mets and made his last start June 25. "Thankfully, I was able to get at least one down there in a game with the adrenaline and all that."
Alvarez heating up?
Pedro Alvarez homered three times in his past 11 plate appearances going into Tuesday's game, and it could be that the move to first base has given him the mental break the Pirates had hoped.
"We've been looking for one of those hot periods this season," manager Clint Hurdle said. "You never know in this game what can bring freedom, what can bring confidence. You hit one (home run), obviously you get a little confidence. The fact that he hit them all in the big parts of the ballpark, left of center, center field, those are all good signs."
Fall League rosters announced
Josh Bell, Nick Kingham and Tyler Glasnow were selected Tuesday to play in the Arizona Fall League. All three are in MLB.com's ranking of the top 100 prospects in baseball. Right-hander Kingham is 19th, outfielder Bell 32nd and right-hander Glasnow 61st.
Joining Glasnow, Kingham and Bell on the roster for the Scottsdale Scorpions are LHP Tom Harlan, LHP Joey Rodriguez, RHP Adrian Sampson, C Elias Diaz and INF Dan Gamache. Pirates bench coach Jeff Banister will be the team's manager.
Bell will play first base instead of the outfield, assistant GM Kyle Stark said.
Also, to avoid wearing out his arm, Kingham will not play the entire Fall League season. Stark said Kingham will make a few outings early in the season with Scottsdale, then shut it down until he reports to big league camp for spring training in February.
"We're going to set a drop-dead date with him so he can get some rest," Stark said.
Kingham has thrown a combined 153 innings this year in Double-A and Triple-A.
Glasnow, Sampson and Rodriguez also will be on reduced workloads but not as restricted as Kingham.
"We're not going to push their innings," Stark said. "They won't be shut down early, but we'll keep an eye on them, especially Glasnow, being as young (21) as he is."
Minor stars
Despite being promoted to Double-A Altoona in July, Bell was named Florida State League Player of the Year. Glasnow was named Pitcher of the Year. Bradenton Marauders manager Tom Prince was recognized as one of the top three managers in the league.
Bell led the FSL in hitting (.335) and played in the Futures Game. Glasnow is 12-5 and has a league-best 1.67 ERA. His 148 strikeouts are second in the league.

Olympus Air A01 module helps turn lens into a rocket lookalike
It may seem that April Fools came a bit late, but make no mistake, this is serious business. Thanks to the Olympus Air A01 module and a ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 300mm f/2.8 lens, your smartphone camera, puny in comparison, can achieve a super telephoto lens effect equivalent to 1,200 mm. There is just one catch. The module is so long and so big that the only comfortable way to use it would be to hoist in on your shoulders, effectively making it look like you're about to literally shoot something instead.

Military Law
Have Military Law Questions? Ask a Military Lawyer.
My spouse was married for 20 years to his ex-spouse. She does qualify for the 20-20-20 benefit. She knew of his pension but made no claim to it or alimony at the time of the divorce. Now, 6 years later, she wants to reopen the divorce. The divorce was final in North Carolina, he recently retired in and lives in New Jersey. Our intended domicile is PA in a matter of months, however, his legal state of residence is Florida, where she also lives with her boyfriend. She is attempting to reopen the case in NJ. Who has jurisdiction here? Will a court likely reopen the case? NC law does state that once the divorce is final, that is it. But would that apply in NJ, Pa, or FL?!!
Also, my spouse has had custody of their three kids to which his ex has not paid a dime for since the divorce. Help!
Thank you for the prompt response!
The divorce decree did not address any items such as child support, alimony or the pension. Would that be grounds enough other than fraud to have the case reopened.
No, that is not a basis to reopen by itself. Again, she has to demonstrate that something stopped her from being able to address these issues before, such as fraud on the part of your husband or his attorney.If the decree didn't address those issues, it didn't address them. Nothing legally requires that the issue of the pension be addressed, so if it isn't the law supposes that she wasn't supposed to get any of it.The law requires, for her to have a right to it, that the divorce decree expressly grant her the right to it, so nothing about the divorce decree being silent implies that it was just forgot about. She had the responsibility through her attorney to have each issue addressed then, if she felt that she had a right.
I'm going to bed now, but I will be back first thing in the morning. Anything additional questions you post, I'll address as soon as I'm up. Good night.
How does the Former Spouse Protection Act come into play here? I know that she can file a motion to have it reopened by stating that she made a mistake by omitting it or was under duress. She was married to him for 20 years so she knew everything about the pension. I realize that you said she should have addressed it then. Does the USFSPA give her more leverage for reopening?
Thank you again, goodnight.
That act doesn't make a former spouse automatically entitled to a portion of the retirement. It doesn't have any statement which allows one to reopen a closed divorce. All that act does is make her a recipient of the 20/20/20 benefits that she already had automatically.The only other thing that law does give the state court the right, not the obligation, to grant her a portion of the military retirement. Before that law passed, state courts couldn't divide military retirement. But again, it does not create any right to a division of that asset. It simply brings military retirement in line with civilian forms of retirement (which always could be divided). So, nothing about that law gives her any special leverage. She still has to establish why she failed to address this issue in the first place.

|reproducible wedge/corruption
|Michael MacDonald <mjmac@xxxxxxxxxx>
|Wed, 4 Apr 2001 19:03:46 -0400
Hi all. I've been lurking for a while, trying to get a feel for how XFS is working for people. It seems to be working well overall, which is a little disappointing for me because I'm not having much luck with it. Perhaps I'm not living right, or something. Anyhow, I have two machines with similar hardware on which I can pretty reliably cause the system to lock solid. I've tried different kernels (linux-xfs-beta vs. linux-xfs; 2.4.1 -> 2.4.3), but the problem doesn't go away. The kernel is configured with the bare minimum to run an IDE-based server. To try to reproduce the error that users were running into, I wrote a simple script to pound on the fs. It hasn't made it past the first or second iteration on an XFS partition, because the machine will hang. Can't log in at the console or anything. I tried changing the logbsize parameter as described in the FAQ, and got better performance until the machine hung like it did before. I gave up after several days of tweaking and reformatted ext2. I would wonder if I have something misconfigured except for the fact that the script runs through all 30 iterations on an ext2 filesystem without a hang. I'll post the script if requested, but basically all it does is: create 10000 small files in one directory make 10000 symlinks in another directory to the files in the first remove the second directory remove the first directory It seems to be hanging mostly during the removal stage, although I have seen it hang during file creation. On two of the hangs, I have seen some nasty file corruption. The specifics of the system are as follows: Dell PowerEdge 350 Celeron 600 128MB RAM Intel 440BX chipset I've got another 350 with PIII 700 512MB RAM They both seem to exhibit similar behavior wrt XFS, although I haven't pounded on the second one quite as much. If anyone has any ideas, or would like more details, please let me know. I would really like to get XFS on these things, as they've got a lot of disk between the two of them. -- Michael MacDonald Systems Monkey mjmac@xxxxxxxxxx Ximian, Inc.

Mitt Romney Understands Working Women Need The Flexibility To Get Home In Time To Cook Dinner
Mitt Romney's ridiculous "binders full of women" soundbite is certainly getting the bulk of the attention in today's recaps of last night's presidential debate (and, it's worth noting that he straight up lied about requesting those binders in the first place). But it was his anecdotal focus on women in the workplace needing "flexibility" that struck me as most galling. The candidates were asked the following question: "In what new ways do you intend to rectify the inequalities in the workplace, specifically regarding females making only 72 percent of what their male counterparts earn?" After Obama answered first (you can read the full debate transcript here), Romney followed up his "binders full of women" story with the following:
"I recognized that if you're going to have women in the workforce that sometimes you need to be more flexible. My chief of staff, for instance, had two kids that were still in school.
She said, I can't be here until 7 or 8 o'clock at night. I need to be able to get home at 5 o'clock so I can be there for making dinner for my kids and being with them when they get home from school. So we said fine. Let's have a flexible schedule so you can have hours that work for you. …
What we can do to help young women and women of all ages is to have a strong economy, so strong that employers that are looking to find good employees and bringing them into their workforce and adapting to a flexible work schedule that gives women opportunities that they would otherwise not be able to afford."
Romney still sees working moms and wives are homemakers first, and that what they do in addition to that as secondary. That if we're gonna have ladies workin' outside the home, we have to make sure they have the flexibility to get home in time to cook dinner or else having a job is not an "opportunity" that they can "afford" to take. (As if men aren't perfectly capable of cooking for their wives and children; my father and mother both worked outside the home and split the task of cooking for the family pretty evenly down the middle.) It's certainly true that mothers who work outside the home — because they have to, because they want to, or because they are indispensable in their field — would benefit from more flexibility (but so would fathers!). But the fact that Romney chose this particular point to focus on (instead of pay equity, for example) speaks volumes about how out of touch with and dismissive he is of the average working woman.
These women were not havin' it and neither am I.

text: Home Gallery Video Verizon Droid -- 48 Hours Teaser Verizon: Droid -- 48 Hours Teaser McGarry Bowen Creates Action-Packed Film That Shows Actor in Sticky Situations Published on Dec 05, 2013 Editor's Pick Last week, actor Ed Norton appeared in a mysterious film tagged with the simple title #48 hours. It showed him fleeing in the woods from a mysterious stalker -- unsuccessfully, since he ends up getting thrown in the trunk of the car. Later, Verizon emerged as the brand behind the effort when it debuted on Black Friday a longer film teasing out the story, part of the brand's holiday push promoting the Droid Maxx phone. In the second film, Mr. Norton recounts the events of the previous 48 hours, Hangover style. In that time, he hooks up with a hottie, partakes in a karaoke showdown, flies a plane, gets hogtied and engages in an underworld version of Connect 4 -- supported throughout by his Droid phone with 48-hour battery life.
