In Ally Condies Matched, sixteen-year-old Cassia Reyes is anxious about one of the most important days of her life: her Match Banquet. In this society, officials decide who you are destined to fall in love with, what your profession will be, and when you will die.
Cassias match is someone she already knows. In fact, it is her best friend. This is an extremely rare occurrence; most matches are between two strangers. Things complicate even further when one evening, Xanders face is not displayed on her matchs information screen. In his place is the face of a different boy. Cassia is informed that it was merely a programming error, and that she should forget about it. Cassia, by chance, meets the boy, and finds herself falling in love with him. She is faced with an internal struggle: follow her heart and break nearly every law she knows, or abide by the law and live safely but with a lingering feeling of longing?
Matched is an impeccable novel. Ally Condies fascinating society truly captured my interest. The citizens are completely devoid of any ideas that their community is anything less than utopia. Cassia seems to be the first in hundreds of years to become conscious that there might be more to life than merely data and statistics. Condies vivid wording made the characters spring to life on the page.

COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ohio voters opposed to a new collective bargaining law that limits public employee unions will get to vote "no" at the ballot box this fall, following a decision Wednesday by the state Ballot Board.
The decision followed hours of negotiation by Secretary of State Jon Husted, the board's Republican chairman. It echoes years of Ohio ballot tradition, but also counts as a victory for the law's opponents. Voters against or confused by an issue tend to vote against it.
The group that wants to put the recently passed elections reform law on the statewide ballot will make another attempt to get petition language certified.
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ohio's elections chief says the first of three statewide issues listed on the November ballot will be about whether to raise the age limit for judges.
Secretary of State Jon Husted says Issue 2 will be whether to keep Ohio's new law limiting collective bargaining rights for public workers. The third issue will let Ohioans vote on whether they want to participate in the national health care overhaul.
Ohioans will be able to vote this November on whether they want to participate in the national health care overhaul.
Secretary of State Jon Husted said Tuesday that opponents to the overhaul collected nearly 427,000 valid signatures to get a constitutional amendment on the ballot. The measure needed roughly 385,000 signatures.
At question is a proposed amendment to Ohio's Constitution to keep people from being required to buy health insurance or face penalties. The federal mandate would go into effect in 2014, when new competitive insurance exchanges are scheduled to open.
A new poll shows voters think it's ok to require Ohioans to show a photo ID when casting ballots.
In the latest Quinnipiac University poll, 93 percent of republicans, 77 percent of independents and 66 percent of Democrats said they'd support a law that requires voters to show photo id to vote. However, some lawmakers, including Ohio's Secretary of State Jon Husted, who support the bill don't like the way it was written and question its constitutionality.

Secrets of Success
BLC - Reboot part 2
Wednesday, October 24, 2012
Original Goals:
Track everything, every day no matter what! Stay within calorie range a minimum of 5 days a week and as close a possible on the others. No more 2K food days.
1. Exercise 20 minutes (minimum) 5 days a week.
2. 2 days a week do strength training focused workouts.
3. Swim at least 1 day a week until it's too cold.
4. Get at least 10,000 steps a day (or 45 minutes "active" walking minutes) 5 days a week. (5K on rest days)
5. Start doing exercises to strengthen foot/ankle.
1. Have a clean enough house that I won't be ashamed for someone to come in and kitty sit.
2. Write a novel in November for Nano WriMo (National November Writing (a novel) Month)
For Me
1. Read for fun
2. Spend at least one night with bff for girl's night out each month.
Food ~
Track food most days and keep it within ranges using more calories on days I burn more calories through exercise.
Exercise ~
1. Continue walking either outside or with dvd or music everyday to a minimum of 7,000 steps, but averaging 8,200 steps a day as that will give me an early victory in regards to the VirginHealthMiles walking challenge from work (500,000 steps from Oct 1 – Dec 31). Early as in before I leave on my long Thanksgiving vacation cruise. This will also keep me in the
2. Start adding in more intense exercise including rock climbing and/or strength training several days a week.
3. It has been too cold to swim lately, see item 2 for changes.
4. Start doing the exercises I need to strengthen my ankles.
5. Walk the Color run in San Diego on November 3 with my husband and meet up with 2 of my Spark Buddies!
For Me ~
1. Continue reading for fun, also play computer games with DH and games with friends.
2. Start attending the occasional SCA event again. It was good to see friends at the one event I attended recently.
3. Spend at least one night with bff for girl's night out each month.
Other ~
1. I really need to get moving on this one. I have less than a month left before I leave. Now then… time to step it up and Just Do It. I will have my house clean enough before I leave that I will not be ashamed to have my friend stay while I'm away.
I know… do I really trust my friend enough to give her access to my home while I'm away? Yes! She lived in our back house one summer. She's a true friend and as honest as they come.
2. Write a novel in November (NANO WRIMO). I have a good start on this. I have been working on plot/character development this past week. I believe I can do this.
So there it is the changes I'm going to make. I'd have loved to be in the 150's for the trip. I don't see how that can accomplish that with as slowly as I lose weight. I was hoping that stepping it up for those couple of weeks would spark something more. Right now I am sitting at 0.1lb away from two and a half pounds lost for the past 6-weeks which is 0.4lbs lost on average per week right now. For me? That's really good. I'm trending down even if it is slower than I'd like. However, this is during the hardest time of year for me. The transition from the warm, sunny weather to the dreary, colder, darker weather of the fall/winter seasons. Fall especially seems to affect me more as the temperature swings wildly from the 60's to the 80/90s and back again in the same week.
We do need some rain out here, desperately. Otherwise fire season will be truly horrendous with a lot of fires that spread quickly because there is no moisture to help stop the spread. But I truly hate rainy days, especially when I have to be out in them and thunder storms?! Well, I still don't like them at all and want to climb into my husband's skin when it starts.
But really what I'm going to focus on for the rest of this round is having fun! To make this journey something I WANT to do rather than HAVE to do. I wish I could feel that way about cleaning as well. Most of the problem is paper. My husband wants to shred anything that has our address on it, but doesn't actually do it. And as for me, well… I get tired of doing… everything to do with cleaning in our house. Now, I can't change him. He won't help on a consistent basis, after 21 + years together I have to accept the fact that if I want it clean, I'll have to do it myself, for myself.
Anyway, I hope everyone is having a successful fall season!

What a great attitude to have about making it fun!
As for the cleaning part....lol....that's exactly how it is with my kids! I feel like if I want it done right/complete then I have to do it myself. I make them do it then I'm right behind them doing it the right way, but it just gets frustrating!

I think you have a great attitude, all told! You know what you need to do--and I love it that you want to relax and enjoy it, rather than stressing out about it. I need to borrow some of that since, like you, I'm doing well to lose a half pound a week and I struggle with getting frustrated because I feel like I "should" be getting more, faster results.... and, like you, this time of year is hard for me---too dark, too cold, and much too dreary. And I think focusing on having fun (like your rock climbing!) is a great way to counter that.
You can do it!!!
P.S. PAPER is the bane of my existence. You would think with computers and electronic billing etc. that it wouldn't be as big of an issue... and we're not even shredding everything with our address on it (why bother since I'm pretty sure you can find our address using google).... but still, PAPER. Everywhere. Drafts and articles and photocopies and mail and coupons and receipts that need to be saved and....

Definitely start to have fun, especially with the seasons changing and SAD ready to set in on everyone. Not sure if you suffer from that, but I think everyone does to some point. And the holidays are coming up, so it's definitely time for some fun!
And remember that smiling makes you healthier! I read a whole article on it on about.com. I blogged about it is you need to find the article.
Oh, and about the shredding. My father does this as well and he have the oldest and slowest shredder in the world. So I gather everything up and burn it in a barrel outside. It's faster and I don't mind bundling up and sitting around a fire for a hal hour while things burn. It's actually quite relaxing for me.
And of the books I had to burn that the mice got into and destroyed, the one book that did not completely burn is a book called "Fire Sale". Ironic, huh?

I like that you want to have fun with the rest of the round. In order to stay the course on a life-long journey like we're on, you have to enjoy it, not look at it as a chore. Good for you on that one!
While you may not be losing as much as you'd like, you are still LOSING, and that is the most important part. You're doing a great job!

Leaked Celeb Confessions: Katie Holmes Uncensored
What if Katie Holmes posted homemade videos about her life on YouTube and gave the world a look inside one of the more mysterious marriages in Hollywood? That's what the chick behind Don'tCallMeJoey has in mind when she films herself impersonating the former Dawson's Creek star and wife of Tom Cruise — her resemblance to the actress is uncanny, as are her vocal inflections, and the result is hilarious. Check out the clip of "Katie" drunk, above, as well as others on her YouTube page.

Perhaps you can use a candle warmer. I have a warmer that warms from the top down using what I think is a high intensity light. It is very good at dispersing the fragrance. I have used it with jar candles or wickless candles. If I ever actually burn a candle, I put it in my clean and dry kitchen sink. With it being there, if for some reason I knock it over, it would be easy to clean up and not catch anything on fire.
I think it's neat how they sent your new lease. I hope if you sign with them, that the co.. will continue to be that accomodating.

Hi,This may all sound a bit silly, but it's a wonderful world when I can ask mynew apartment complex to send me an electronic copy of the lease, and theydo. Now I can read it at my leisure before I go in to sign it, which takesa great burden off of whoever I might have otherwise had to read it aloud for me (especially considering that the lease and all attachments total 29 pages). I've never read a lease from beginning to end before, just skimming overthings unless I deemed them important. I'm going to make myself finish thisone before I delve into the Harry Potter treats that Lissi sent.In places, though, it's very interesting reading. For instance, I learned that the lease actually says I can't use candles or kerosene lamps. I don'tmind the kerosene lamps, but are they really serious about the candles? I love candles!

Field of Valor to Support Veterans
It can be an emotional experience to stand in the midst of 2001 American flags, each one honoring a US military man or woman.
"There is an overwhelming sense of patriotism and reverence for those who have served and those who are serving," says Linda Logan of the Covina Rotary Club.
You can sponsor a flag in honor of a veteran from any conflict, including World War II or Vietnam. "We even had somebody sponsor a veteran from the Civil War," Logan said.
"It got started because we heard 20 percent of our returning veterans will be homeless," said Logan. Proceeds from the flag sponsorships benefit local military families, paying everything from grocery bills to rent and college tuition.
"The've gone months and months without any money from the government," Logan said.
Sponsorships are available at www.covinarotaryfieldofvalor.org. The flags will be on display Nov. 9-11 at the corner of Puente and Grand in Covina. Admission to the display is free.

Technical assistance and direction for RWJF's Public Health Law Research program
The Foundation's program, Public Health Law Research: Making the Case for Laws That Improve Health, was designed to build the evidence for public health law and policy, translate research findings into practical tools to increase the support for and use of law by policy makers and public health practitioners, and to translate findings to other fields and venues to improve and protect health.The national program office (NPO) for the Public Health Law Research initiative is housed at Temple University's Beasley School of Law, with Scott Burris, J.D., serving as the National Program Director. During the first year, the program established an office, determined vision and objectives, produced many relevant documents and training materials, and helped manage the call for proposals process to award 15 grants in public health law research. This grant will grow the public health law research field and support the NPO's activities by: (1) building the evidence base for public health law research through RWJF grantmaking and NPO research; (2) providing methodologic assistance to both grantees and other partners; (3) expanding strategic collaborations with other NPOs and academic, practitioner and policy-based stakeholder groups; (4) managing the call for proposals, application and selection processes; and (5) effectively translating the research and disseminating products and training to policy makers and practitioners. The NPO will also support the first cohort of New Connections scholars in the area of public health law. Additional deliverables include: a second annual grantee meeting; formalizing criteria and a process for rapid response funding; and continuing to produce and commission relevant, timely papers on public health law research. The NPO will work closely with RWJF program and communications staff to continue to build and develop this program and its activities.

Sometimes you need more than just medicine — you need comfort and a snack. Whether it's the flu, or even just a cold, a can of Campbell Soup's (NYSE:CPB) chicken noodle soup is a go-to to ease a sore throat and regain some strength.
Ginger ale is another common choice. Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO) makes Seagram's, while Dr Pepper Snapple (NYSE:DPS) owns Canada Dry and markets Schweppes in the U.S.
A doctor would tell you nothing can be better than good old water because staying hydrated is key when you're battling the flu. If you need it from a bottle, PepsiCo's (NSYE:PEP) Aquafina is an option, along with Coca-Cola's Dasani.
Finally, if you prefer to turn to some healing tea when you're sick, there's Teavana (NYSE:TEA) or even options from Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (NASDAQ:GMCR).

How to Succeed in Business by Really Trying
Congratulations! You Got the Job! Now What? Candidates for jobs spend so much time and effort on getting the job, that precious little thought is given to how to succeed on the job.

Ricky Martin announced during a taping of the "Oprah Winfrey Show" in Chicago (to air on October 11, date of release of his new album, Life) that his worldwide concert tour will kick off on November 15 in Mexico City, and continue throughout Latin America before arriving in the U.S.
The tour moves to Europe and travels around the world in 2006 and 2007.
Martin's decision to kick off his return to the stage in Latin America with the first date at Mexico City's Auditorio Nacional shouldn't come as a surprise. And it's only natural for him to end the first leg of the tour in his native Puerto Rico.
"Where else could I start the tour but at home? Latin America to me is in my blood, soy boricua." Martin said.
"Puerto Rico is my home and Latin America is very special to me for many reasons. The concept of this tour is to return to the place where it all began and be one with the audience, to be accessible, to share my music with my fans directly. We decided to go for more intimate venues than I have played in the past for one reason... to reconnect, to create a very special moment with each audience in each country and make it a night to remember."
Una Noche Con Ricky Martin, Martin's Latin American run, presented by Visa, will take him to 10 countries in a four week period, including Puerto Rico, Mexico, Brasil and others
Details of Martin's continuing touring schedule for 2006 and 2007 will be announced in the coming weeks.
Martin said that a portion of the proceeds each concert ticket will be donated directly to the Ricky Martin Foundation to fund its programs, including Life for the Katrina Children Relief Fund, People for Children, RMF Tsunami Relief Fundand various other local ongoing programs in Puerto Rico and throughout Latin America.

"Batman Arkham City — The Album" Featuring Coheed and Cambria, Panic! at the Disco, Daughtry, Serj Tankian, Crosses, and More — 4.5 out of 5 stars

Panic! At the Disco Photos
Panic! At the Disco Videos
"The strange will walk alone," laments Coheed and Cambria singer Claudio Sanchez at the beginning of "Deranged," the band's contribution to Batman Arkham City — The Album.
The line itself could be referencing Coheed's singular path as 21st century prog rock torchbearers or it could be nodding to Bruce Wayne's journey from a lonely lost boy into one of the most important heroes ever. Either way, it's a powerful, poignant, and poetic line from Sanchez, and it makes for one of the best songs of Coheed's illustrious career. There's an elegant haze rising from the guitar that shimmers alongside Sanchez's impassioned delivery. "We will burn this city down," he declares. The chorus is so incendiary he wouldn't even need a match.
"Deranged" is one of many standouts on Batman: Arkham City - The Album, the soundtrack to one of the most anticipated video games of 2011. In groundbreaking fashion, the album features songs all inspired by the Batman universe. This collection drops on October 4th, while the game hits shelves October 18th. Panic! at the Disco's "Mercenary" is an eerie exercise in alt rock theatrics complete a guitar swing and massive refrain about "collateral damage". It would've fit Tim Burton's original Batman or Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight. During "The Years", Crosses strikes the perfect balance between The Cure's hazy rock hypnosis and a calculated modern glitch-infused doom-saying. Chino Moreno sounds utterly pristine as keyboards resound, bleeding out with him.
Blaqk Audio's "After Dark" is pop goth from the king of the genre, Mr. Davey Havok. The Danny Elfman influence filters through the electronics. There's a swaggering, beer-swilling stomp driving "Trophy Widow" from The Damned Things. It's as fun as it is fiery, and you can practically picture the Batmobile storming Gotham City's streets with this thrash fueling it.
Daughtry's "Drown In You" is an entrancing rock 'n' roll elegy that showcases Chris's darker side, illuminating how diverse and daring he truly can be. Of course, the chorus reaches heavenly heights, and that's why it works so well.
Serj Tankian's "Total Paranoia" is a horrific look at madness that could've been sung by Heath Ledger's Joker. Ultimately, this is the best soundtrack you'll hear all year rivaling even those of big budget films. There are going to be a lot of people walking along with the strange…

Santorum's Sweeping Social Reaction
May 7, 2003
By Joanne Murphy
Sen Santorum (R-PA) has gotten a lot of controversial press
over his remarks in a recent AP interview. In the interview
he made some colorful comments comparing gay relationships
to bigamy, bestiality and a host of other questionable practices.
But buried in the AP transcript was the face of a GOP far
more sinister and extreme than one that would simply criticize
consensual same-sex relationships. By focusing only on what
Santorum said about gays, and allowing the GOP to defend him
purely on that basis, the mass media has done the nation a
disservice: it has helped to obfuscate the facts of exactly
how extreme Santorum's views really are.
Unfortunately, a great number of Americans still are not
ready to embrace gay rights - particularly, I presume, the
ones who comprise the GOP base. But take a look at what old
Hardwick Rick actually says:
"...And if the Supreme Court says that you have the right
to consensual sex within your home, then you have the right
to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right
to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right
to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society?
I would argue yes, it does. It all comes from, I would argue,
this right to privacy that doesn't exist in my opinion in
the United States Constitution, this right that was created,
it was created in Griswold - Griswold was the contraceptive
case - and abortion. And now we're just extending it out.
And the further you extend it out, the more you - this freedom
actually intervenes and affects the family. You say, well,
it's my individual freedom Yes, but it destroy's the basic
unit of our society because it condones behavior that's antithetical
to strong, healthy families. "
Many Americans are not old enough to immediately "get" the
Griswold reference The 1965 Griswold vs. Connecticut
decision gave married couples in this country the legal right
to access birth control. Apparently, Rick thinks this decision
was a mistake. When I read this, my heart stopped. "Geez Louise,"
I said to myself. "If this guy's got a problem with Griswold
vs. Connecticut - what does that mean for us? Exactly
how far back would he like to see the country taken?" The
seventeenth century, perhaps - with pillories in the public
It has become a GOP mantra lately to remind us all that there
is no "right to privacy" explicitly guaranteed by the Constitution.
Well, explicitly, no - but the Supreme Court knew that in
1965 just as anyone who can read, knows it now. The esteemed
Justices of that day, after deliberating, concluded in a 7-to-2
ruling that there was an inherent right to privacy
which would subsequently grant Americans the right to make
private decisions about their birth control and sexuality
outside the purview of government surveillance and regulation.
Stating over and over again that "there is no right to privacy
in the Constitution," then, is merely fatuous and ignores
the role of the Supreme Court in interpreting the law. Must
we all now be Constitutional "Fundamentalists" as well as
Biblical Fundamentalists, to please the Republican Party?
The Constitution also does not explicitly guarantee the right
to digital cable. Does that mean it's okay for it to be outlawed?
The notion that one is only entitled to the rights explictly
guaranteed by the Constitution is a dangerously narrow and
fascistic interpretation of our body of laws.
All due respect to the gay rights issues notwithstanding
- it is crucial that Americans are made aware that Santorum's
cultural views are far, far to the right of what would be
generally accepted cultural thought in this day and age. Even
if many Republicans would not argue in favor of gay rights,
I think precious view of them would agree with Mr Santorum
that married couples should not have the right to legalized
birth control.
This is part of a pattern of the GOP working to conceal the
extremism of much of its party while attempting to present
a "moderate" mask to the nation. Even if one buys the flimsy
argument that they should have the right to this kind of deception
- and I certainly don't - the media should not be their handmaidens
in this dangerous charade.

Ashley Tisdale Blows Her Top (Off)
High School Musical starlet Ashley Tisdale took a break from her hectic schedule on Monday, soaking up some sun with her friends poolside at her Miami hotel while in town for a meet-and-greet sponsored by radio station Y100.
While getting baked, the Tiz undid her bikini top and laid out on her stomach.
Hope she kept in mind that there were paparazzi all around. One false move, and she could have been the subject of national embarrassment. And, truth be told, one nude photo scandal among the High School Musical cast is probably enough.

Nicholas of Cusa (1401–1464)
In his De docta ignorantia, Nicholas of Cusa endorsed the idea of other inhabited worlds:
Life, as it exists on Earth, in the form of men, animals and plants, is to be found, let us suppose, in a higher form in the solar and stellar regions... Of the inhabitants then of worlds other than our own we can know less, having no standards by which to appraise them. It may be conjectured that in the Sun there exist solar beings, bright and enlightened denizens, and by nature, more spiritual than such as may inhabit the Moon - who are possibly lunatics ...He therefore went much further than those scholastics of the 13th and 14th centuries, including William of Ockham, Jean Buridan, and William Vorilong, who merely asserted that it would have been possible for God to have created other worlds should he have chosen to do so. Considering the fate of another Middle Age cleric, Giordano Bruno, who expounded pluralism, it might be assumed that Nicholas would have seriously upset the Church with his views. In fact, however, he went on to become a Catholic cardinal.

Doctors treating seriously ill patients will now be clearer about how they should act in an emergency following a judge's ruling in the Charlotte Wyatt case, a patients' leader said today.
Michael Summers, who is chairman of the Patients Association, said the high court decision's to lift an order allowing doctors to choose not to resuscitate the two-year-old would change doctors' thinking.
He said there would be a "marginal change" now that Mr Justice Hedley made a distinction between a minor and a major emergency affecting Charlotte's condition.
"The court said the decision should be left to the conscience of the doctors, and in a minor emergency then they must act to prolong her [Charlotte's] life," he told SocietyGuardian.co.uk
He said doctors would usually do this anyway, but it helps professionals to hear the high court spell it out.
Mr Summers, who was keen to express his sympathy for Charlotte Wyatt's parents for the situation they have faced, said: "It [the ruling] has clarified the position in a court of law between a major and a minor situation."
Charlotte, who is two today, was born with serious heart and lung problems which made the prognosis of her condition extremely gloomy. Doctors had warned she was unlikely to make it through last winter, but she proved them wrong and her parents have now set their sights on a date next March to take her home.
Mr Justice Hedley told the court in giving his ruling: "I have tried to set out, in a way comprehensible to all, what I understand to be both the duties and also the limits on the duties of the treating clinician.
"He does not take orders from the family any more than he gives them. He acts in what he sees as the best interests of the child: no more and no less.
"In doing so, however, parental wishes should be accommodated as far as professional judgment and conscience will permit, but no further. It is vital that that is understood by all."
A dispute that "encroaches on conscience will be rare indeed, but I can see that it could happen here", he said.

Take a 0.5-mile hike along a paved walkway up to a 54-foot-tall observation tower for a spectacular view of the Great Smoky Mountains. Take a seven-mile road off Newfound Gap Road to reach Clingmans Dome, which is usually closed from December through March because of weather conditions.
3. Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail

Coldwell's luxury home efforts reach large audience
In 2008, Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate's Luxury and International Properties captured 20 percent of market share of the luxury market in the Tampa Bay area, according to Multiple Listing Service data. Now, the company is looking to increase that market share with Coldwell Banker Previews International, an effort designed for marketing luxury residential properties to affluent buyers worldwide. "Coldwell Banker Previews International has the connections that align our sales associates and their customers' multimillion dollar properties with the most powerful network of luxury specialists in the world," says Cathleen Smith, regional senior vice president, Tampa Bay. "The Coldwell Banker name is one of the most respected in the marketing of exceptional real estate." Smith attributes the power of electronic marketing as a key element in attracting buyers. "The Internet has proven to be a dominant tool in reaching millions of potential buyers worldwide. Home buyers are using the Internet in increasing numbers to research information on properties," she says.The National Association of Realtors 2008 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers reports that about 87 percent of people begin the home search process on the Internet. "Previews enjoys a reputation for excellence and repeat referrals, and has stood the test of time in attracting attention to the world's most prestigious properties, from castles and palaces to waterfront mansions and islands in the South Pacific," Smith says. "Using the Previews marketing approach, certified Previews property specialists assist the most influential and successful people of our time in buying and selling their exquisite properties."

Ban Demands Syria State it Won´t Use Chemical Weapons (INN) ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS) By Elad Benari, Canada 07/28/12)
Source: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/158349#.UBToaGFo2uk
INN} ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS Articles-Index-Top
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Friday said he was deeply concerned about reports of the possible use of chemical weapons by Syria, and demanded the government state it would not use them under any circumstances.
I remain deeply concerned about the reports of the possible use of chemical weapons, Ban was quoted by Reuters as having told reporters, citing one report in which Syria said it would use such weapons if it was attacked by foreign powers.
I demand .... that the Syrian authorities categorically state that they will not use chemical or other weapons of mass destruction under any circumstances, he added, speaking at a joint news conference in London with British Foreign Secretary William Hague.
Both Hague and Ban expressed deep concern about escalating violence in the Syrian city of Aleppo, which is under a major assault by government forces.
I also want them to know in the Assad regime that the more they do this sort of thing, the more we will increase the practical support we give to the opposition movements in Syria, Hague said, referring to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Meanwhile, Reuters reported on Friday that rebels have detained scores of Syrian officers, soldiers and pro-government militiamen this week in Idlib province and in the city of Aleppo, where a major battle is anticipated.
A video posted on YouTube showed rebels with Kalashnikovs in Aleppo from "The Tawheed (monotheism) Brigade" guarding the detainees who were lined up in four groups on a school playground. An off-camera voice said they had been detained in Aleppo, Syria´s biggest city.
Some of the detainees´ faces were covered with bruises and showed signs of swelling around their eyes and when they spoke their voices quavered.
One said he was a colonel, another a major and several identified themselves as shabbiha, a term used by opposition to describe militiamen who are loyal to Assad and are fighting alongside his troops.
At the end of the video, a rebel voice said: "The Free Army will terminate all the shabbiha. A rebel from the group told Reuters that the detainees were safe and have been moved to an unidentified site in the countryside around Aleppo, which is a rebel stronghold.

Record Description
The collection consists of a name index and images from a Soundex card index to Philadelphia passenger lists from 1 Jan 1883 through 28 Jun 1948. Each card contains the given name, family name, place of birth, age, gender, occupation, nationality, last permanent residence, destination, name & address of relative or friend, port & date of entry, name of ship, and the volume, page, and line number in the passenger lists. The cards are field according to the Soundex number associated with each family name and then by given names. This collection corresponds to NARA publication T526: Index (Soundex) Cards, Ship Arrivals at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1883-1948.
The soundex index is a phonetic index that groups together names that sound alike but are spelled differently, for example, Stewart and Stuart. The index cards are filed according to the soundex number associated with each family name and then by given names. For more information on soundex indexes and help with coding names and using the index, see the wiki article: Soundex
For an alphabetical index currently published in this collection, select the Browse link from the collection landing page.
Passenger arrival lists known as customs manifests date back to 1820. Congressional action in 1891 resulted in federal immigration officials recording the immigrants' arrival.
Arrival lists were used by legal authorities to gather personal information about immigrants prior to the person being allowed to live in the United States.
The information was supplied by the immigrant or a traveling companion (usually a family member). Incorrect information was occasionally given, or mistakes may have been made when the clerk guessed at the spelling of foreign names.

How to Use the Record
When searching the index it is helpful to know the full name of your ancestor and the approximate date of immigration. If you do not know this information, check the census records after 1900.
Search the Collection
To search the collection fill in the requested information in the boxes on the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about the individuals in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person. You may need to look at the information on several individuals comparing the information about them to your ancestors to make this determination. Keep in mind:
- There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
- You may not be sure of your own ancestor's name.
- Your ancestor may have used different names, or variations of their name, throughout their life.
- Remember that these indexes may contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings, misinterpretations, and optical character recognition errors if the information was scanned.
To search the collection image by image, select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page
⇒Select the appropriate "Description" which takes you to the images.
Look at the images one by one comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.
Please note that when you select an image to view, sometimes the manifest includes more than one page, and when you use the "click to enlarge manifest" link, the image that appears is not always the first page of the record. You may need to click on the "previous" or "next" links to view the remaining pages of the full manifest.
Use the locator information found in the index (such as name of the ship, page, or entry number) to locate your ancestors in the records. Compare the information in the record to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct person. Again, you may need to compare the information of more than one person to find your ancestor.
Using the Information
When you have located your ancestor's record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors. Add this new information to your records of each family. For example, you can use passenger lists to:
- Learn an immigrant's place of origin
- Confirm their date of arrival
- Learn foreign and "Americanized" names
- Find records in his or her country of origin such as emigrations, port records, or ship's manifests.
Tips to Keep in Mind
- If your ancestor had a common name, be sure to look at all the entries for a name before you decide which is correct.
- Continue to search the passenger lists to identify siblings, parents, and other relatives in the same or other generations who may have immigrated at the same time.
- If your ancestor has an uncommon surname, you may want to obtain the passenger list of every person who shares your ancestor's surname if they lived in the same county or nearby. You may not know how or if they are related, but the information could lead you to more information about your own ancestors.
Unable to Find Your Ancestor?
- Check for variant spellings. Realize that the indexes may contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings and misinterpretations.
- Try a different index if there is one for the years needed. You may also need to search the passenger lists year by year.
- Search the indexes of other port cities.

LONDON (Dec. 11)
Lord Mancroft, the Jewish business leader who resigned from the Norwich Union Insurance Company's board under Arab boycott pressure, rejected today an invitation from the insurance firm to return to the board.
The offer of reinstatement was made in a formal statement by the big insurance company yesterday at the same time that British Government spokesmen condemned the Arab boycott and blacklisting of British firms in sharp debate in both Houses of Parliament.
The British peer turned down the offer in a letter to the company's president. Sir Robert Bignold, in which he wrote: "I am sure the implications of your invitation will be understood both at home and abroad. I feel, however, that after all that has happened, my re-association with the Norwich Union could not lead to a proper working relationship. I must therefore with regret decline your offer." The peer told reporters later that he did not wish to add anything to his letter.
The incident continued to have repercussions, including a conference last night of ambassadors in London of 12 Arab countries at which the envoys expressed "surprise" at the statement yesterday in the House of Lords by Lord Carrington, Deputy Foreign Secretary, strongly disapproving pressures exerted by Arab embassies in London against British firms suspected or known to be trading with Israel. The statement also was made in the House of Commons.
The 12 Arab envoys issued a counter-statement that their respective Governments "are the sole judges" of the envoy's activities. The ambassadors emphasized that they were "not prepared to receive instructions or remarks except from our governments."

I've used a variety of devices over the years to read fiction and technical material. For reading fiction I have found that the kind of display is much more of a factor than the size of display. Displays with backlights such as LCD and LED are far more tiring on the eyes than the more paper like displays on the dedicated eReaders. Once at 5" or above I found the display size is no longer an issue, certainly compared to PDAs, and don't think about how a book compares with the larger paperback.
Technical books, papers and notetaking are a different matter and I have not yet found a good alternative to the 12" display on my tablet pc as size does matter with this material. I have yet to have a proper look at the 9.7" devices such as the Kindle DX and I'm looking forward to trying out the upcoming ASUS devices, the DR 950 especially.
My advice is not to worry too much about the size of display initially, buy an eReader and start using it. As you get used to reading on it the differences with a paper book will become less of an issue but the advantages will remain. Over time you will also become aware of what capabilities of the reader and software are important for you and so be able to make a fully informed choice when the cheaper, faster, better devices become available.

From: ab10man2 <>
Subject: [DNA] Hello Dr. Krahn
Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2010 21:04:55 -0600
Hello Dr. Krahn,
I hope you get this message doing well. I am sorry to contact you by this
e-mail but it is the only one that I found for you. I have tested a
y-chromosome test with Family Tree DNA, and it showed my haplogroup to be
Later, I tested the snp l222.2 and it was positive in my kit. These tests
confirmed that I have a Semitic Arabic origin in my paternal line.
I have been in contact with so many experts and scientists including Mr.
Greenspan and Ms. Schrack about the new developments within this haplogroup.
I want to say that, honestly, getting answers to my questions from you would
be the most perfect way to have them answered for ever..
I hope you take a look at them, and provide me with the answers if you would
like - for sure.
Q1: I know that we now have a newer tree of the haplogroup J1 in ISOGG
website. Would you estimate the time of when l222.2 is going to be added to
the haplogroups' tree in ftdna.com
Q2: Since we have more than 400 Arabic kits now, have been there any
developments in the project WTY ( or WTY2 if it has been started ) in
finding new mutations within J1e under l222.2 ? And is l222.2 a back
mutation ?
Q3: Would we have the ability to assign different snp's for each Arabic and
Jewish tribe in the future ?
Q4: Is Family Tree DNA having a genetic conference this year ? ( I am
asking since we used to hear good news from such conferences).
Q5: Do you think that we might need to test more markers in the future to
determine TMRCA ?
Q6: Do you recommend using: ( trees or calculators ) in finding TMRCA
between people that have more than 8 markers difference ?
Q7: Do mutation rates change if we test more people of the same subclade ?
Q8: Would you recommend that I do the WTY test or not ?
Q9: Can I rely on 25 markers match or do I need to take 67 markers matches
in consideration ONLY?
I hope you do not find my question annoying.
Thank you for the work and effort you are doing helping all the haplogroups.
Kind regards.

North of Los Angeles - the studios, the beaches, Rodeo Drive - lies a sparsely populated region that comprises fully one half of Los Angeles County. Sprawling across 2200 miles, this shadow side of Los Angeles is in the high Mojave Desert. Known as the Antelope Valley, it's a terrain of savage dignity, a vast amphitheatre of startling wonders that put on a show as the megalopolis burrows northward into the region's last frontier. Ranchers, cowboys, dreamers, dropouts, bikers, hikers, and felons have settled here - those who have chosen solitude over the trappings of contemporary life or simply have nowhere else to go. But in recent years their lives have been encroached upon by the creeping spread of subdivisions, funded by the once easy money of subprime America. McMansions - many empty now - gradually replaced Joshua trees; the desert - America's escape hatch - began to vanish as it became home to a latter-day exodus of pilgrims.
It is against the backdrop of these two competing visions of land and space that Donald Kueck - a desert hermit who loved animals and hated civilization - took his last stand, gunning down beloved deputy sheriff Steven Sorensen when he approached his trailer at high noon on a scorching summer day. As the sound of rifle fire echoed across the Mojave, Kueck took off into the desert he knew so well, kicking off the biggest manhunt in modern California history until he was finally killed in a Wagnerian firestorm under a full moon as nuns at a nearby convent watched and prayed.
This manhunt was the subject of a widely praised article by Deanne Stillman, first published in "Rolling Stone," a finalist for a PEN Center USA journalism award, and included in the anthology Best American Crime Writing 2006. In "Desert Reckoning" she continues her desert beat and uses Kueck's story as a point of departure to further explore our relationship to place and the wars that are playing out on our homeland. In addition, Stillman also delves into the hidden history of Los Angeles County, and traces the paths of two men on a collision course that could only end in the modern Wild West. Why did a brilliant, self-taught rocket scientist who just wanted to be left alone go off the rails when a cop showed up? What role did the California prison system play in this drama? What happens to people when the American dream is stripped away? And what is it like for the men who are sworn to protect and serve?
In a work that is part Jon Krakauer and part Cormac McCarthy, a critically acclaimed writer uses the story of the biggest manhunt in California history to tell a universal tale of Donald Kueck, an outlaw at war with contemporary America.

Binka Biswas
Asylum - Poem by Binka Biswas
Walls painted agony stood beside you
Embraced by your own solitary screams
Arms twisted and turned in grotesque
Friends delequisce into bones in blinks of your passing cries
The hole where you lay in safe
The abyssmal darkness setting your hopes astray
Foreign eyes lurk inside you in scrutiny
Every move observed, every action anatomized
Undying urge to choke on your own spit
Shriveled lips, the neverending thirst
The stench of your own piss consumes
Putrifying limbs dire to be free
Rats feed on your naked flesh
Maggots burry there along in disguise
Soon their wings will flutter them away
Portraying freedom that you never will attain
Pale skin, crave for warm sunlight
The gates were closed long before
Stiffle and stir all you want
Salvation, nay
Death, nay
The distant clock coils
The shadows back again
Blighted shadows from hell
Gore clotted eyes and hands gripped in pain
Trembling heart, your every deed foreseen
The battered fingers curl as you try to conceal
Crooked smirk, the black toothed grin
His mouth twists, 'Not today my child, rest in peace'.

TEENAGERS Chloe Wilcox and Glen Robinson have been selected to train with national water polo squads, and are just a short step away from becoming international water polo players.
Chloe, from Appleby, is training with the Great Britain Junior Ladies water polo team, and Glen, from Kendal, has just completed his first period of training with the England Youth water polo squad.
Chloe started playing water polo when she was 10 with the Kendal Swimming Club water polo team, gaining competitive experience in the Northern Counties competitions, which are for 16 years and under are open to mixed teams of both boys and girls.
She also played for Carlisle Water Polo and Sedgefield before deciding to attend the Grantham Water Polo Academy, where she is now spending up to three hours a day training in gym and pool work in addition to studying for her A levels.
Chloe now plays water polo with the Sheffield women's team, who last year won the women's National League.
She still has another year to go at the Grantham Academy, but hopes to attend university in Sheffield and continue to play for Sheffield.
Glen began playing water polo when he was 11, and represented Kendal Swimming Club until the end of 2003.
On moving up into the Academy age group (16 and under), he joined Lancaster Swimming and Water Polo Club, who are the current men's National League Champions, to gain greater experience of the sport and to be able to train and play water polo in a deep pool as international water polo is played in pools with a minimum depth of two metres.
Glen has represented the Northern Counties and will be attending this year's Academy summer school at Millfield, from which the England Academy team will be selected.
Because of the promise that he has shown, Glen, along with other Academy level players, has been invited to train with the England Youth squad.
He still lives and goes to school in Kendal, and still finds time to train with the Kendal team and help the youngsters to improve their water polo skills.

Selena Gomez and Niall Horan have officially parted ways after a brief romance weeks ago. While Selena Gomez was believed to be in a committed relationship with the One Direction singer just a short while ago, she has since stepped out with a new man, seemingly confirming there is nothing going on with her and Niall anymore.
As her ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber, continues to flaunt his rumored romance with model Hailey Baldwin, Selena Gomez has stepped out with Samuel Krost, a close friend of model Gigi Hadid, for the second time in the last few months. During their latest outing, the couple was photographed holding hands.
ICYMI: Selena Gomez was spotted holding hands with this guy again! https://t.co/5cqTmglRR4 pic.twitter.com/jJnTjWprfw
— Just Jared Jr. (@justjaredjr) January 19, 2016
On January 19, Radar Online shared the photos with readers, revealing the two 23-year-olds had enjoyed a romantic dinner before being spotted by paparazzi. The couple were also seen last week at the 1OAK Nightclub in Los Angeles, and after that particular outing, a source claimed things between Selena Gomez and Krost weren't as serious as they led on. In fact, at the time, the source suggested Selena Gomez still had feelings for Horan.
"The pictures of [Selena Gomez] and Samuel may have looked more romantic than they really were, those two are well and truly in the friend zone," a source told Hollywood Life. "After being introduced to Samuel by their mutual pal Gigi Hadid last year, [Selena Gomez] maintained a friendship with him because she thinks he's so entertaining and funny. But she isn't attracted to him in anyway, she just loves his company."
SPOTTED! Spill the tea, @selenagomez: https://t.co/5K6VQSmimV pic.twitter.com/1xlty7FHNs
— AOL Lifestyle (@AOLLifestyle) January 19, 2016
Selena Gomez and Krost were also seen together in New York City in November of last year, where they got extremely close during a dinner date with friends. In photos of that outing, Selena Gomez was spotted on Krost's lap and later held his hand as she gazed into his eyes. Still, the Hollywood Life source claimed Selena Gomez only had eyes for Horan.
"[Selena Gomez]'s smitten with Niall and really missed him over the Christmas holidays when he was back in the UK with his family," the source alleged, prior to the latest set of photos being released. "She really would like her romance with Niall to work, but they haven't got a tag on their relationship yet. They're dating, not boyfriend and girlfriend, so there's no commitment just yet."
Selena Gomez had been confusing fans with her love life for the last several months, but after she and Horan were spotted together in Los Angeles, she seemed to be committed. Then, however, just a short while afterward, she was linked to Orlando Bloom, who she'd also been rumored to be dating years ago, when she attended his birthday party and posed for a cozy photo with the actor. Now, after her dinner date with Krost, and the latest details from Hollywood Life, her relationship status is even more unclear.
Selena Gomez has been busy with her career, cranking out hit singles left and right, the latest of which are "Hands To Myself" and "My Girls," which she performed at the end of last year during the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The event ironically included Krost's BFF, Gigi Hadid.
As rumors continue to swirl regarding Selena Gomez and who her boyfriend may be, she has maintained her silence, as she's known to do when speaking of her love life. Meanwhile, Krost has also not made any sort of comment about Selena Gomez or the status of their relationship.
