|Official Title ICMJE
|The Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Activity Gene Expression (SAGE) Study
|Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to enable the study sponsor to develop a new blood test method for clinicians to accurately predict which individuals with lupus will flare, when the flare will occur, and flare severity. Ultimately such a newly derived test would allow treating physicians to start pre-emptive therapy early, with the goal of achieving remission quickly and with a shorter duration of treatment; identify individuals who will have less severe flares and will thus require less aggressive treatments; or intensify and lengthen treatment for those individuals who will need such therapy.
The design of this study is to follow individuals with a known diagnosis of SLE for changes in disease activity during the course of one year of observation. Clinical data and blood and urine samples will be collected at scheduled monthly visits. The clinical data and blood samples will be used for identifying gene expression profile(s) that are associated with increases in SLE disease activity (lupus "flares").
|Detailed Description
|This study is currently enrolling individuals who have an established diagnosis of SLE to participate. There is no cost to volunteers who participate and the study pays for the visits to the clinics for monthly collection of clinical information and blood and urine samples. Women who are or become pregnant may participate in the study with the recommendation of their health care providers and the study doctors.

The Guardian Angels - Poem by Dora Sigerson Shorter
A Ballad
Father John in the green lane went
And he drew his robe full tight,
'I would,' quoth he, 'I were home again
For there's evil in the night.
'I would,' quoth he, 'the gold I bear
Were safe with the poor and old,
For strange the fear that follows me
That my eyes cannot behold.'
He looked him left and there he saw
A white rose climb and cling,
He looked him right and in the brake
A wild bird shook his wing.
He looked him back and far there stood
The old church tall and dim,
Yet on the lonely path there came
A terror strange to him.
Without the shadow of the trees
That bent above his way,
Where lost the moon her silver light,
He stood at last at bay.
And on his gown, from his pale brow
Fell great tears of his fright;
His shaking hands held close the gold
Wrapped in its cloth so white.
He knelt him down upon his knee
And prayed the Lord to hear,
'Christ, loosen Thou these laggard feet
That hold me slow in fear.
'Oh, strengthen Thou this childish heart
That trembles all afraid,
In pity for the calling sick
Who die without my aid.
'And let me bring all safely through
The shadows of the night,
The gold I bear for old and poor,
Still Thou this strange affright.'
And as he prayed from off his heart
Fear's clutching fingers fell,
A holy joy grew in his heart
He knew that all was well.
He turned him left and stayed to take
A white rose from her tree,
He turned him right and lilted low
A wild bird melody.
He looked him back and smiling saw
The tall church guarding him,
And then all fearless laughing sped
Through shadows strange and dim.
When but a year had passed away
There came before his gate,
A dying man who 'Succour,' cried
'Before it be too late.'
'Oh, shrive me, Father, ere I die,'
The moaning stranger said;
He took him to his own hearth side
And laid him on his bed.
'Oh, Father! Father! hear me now
And let me rest in peace.'
'Now speak, my son, and tell your sin
To give your soul release.'
'It was one night a year ago—
Sweet Mary, ease my pain—
I followed far your toiling feet
Within a lonely lane.
'The red gold for the old and poor
You had beneath your gown,
I hid within a darksome place
Where I could strike you down.'
Now Father John he smiled and leant
In pity by the bed,
'I did disarm you by my prayer,
I thank the Lord,' he said.
'I went in fear upon my path
I knew some danger lay,
And lone I knelt upon the road
A little while to pray.'
The dying man he raised his head
And laughed both long and loud,
'Oh, ne'er a prayer would hold my hand
Or keep you from your shroud.
'But by you went two mighty men
To guard you either side,
Else had my dagger reached your heart
And surely you had died.'
Then Father John upon his knees
Bent low his holy head,
'God's angels walked beside me there
Lest you my blood should shed
My guardian angels walked by me,
I thank Thee, Lord,' he said.

On Klingon religious beliefs:
"I prefer Klingon beliefs."
"I suppose your gods aren't as cryptic as ours."
"Our gods are dead. Ancient Klingon warriors slew them a millennia ago. They were more trouble than they were worth."
And I understand that I'm more picky than most people. I just can't stand egotism, meanness, or stupidity.
Thanks Ruth. Yes, I did mean the characters, not the actors. If I had to blame someone, it would probably be the director. It's usually the director that makes the final decisions.
It was not so much "meanness" as 1960's attempts at a little humor, and Spock was supposed to be half-human, a graduate of Starfleet Academy, and used to being around humans, or he wouldn't have been the First Officer. Or a personal friend of Capt. Kirk.
If the actors had strong objections to anything in the scripts, they had the right to have it removed or changed at any time.
A close friend of mine worked on TOS from the first pilot episode to the very last....He was DeForrest Kelley's stand-in, a "permanent extra," and an amateur photographer. I used to see him, and talk to him, at the rink at night, and the only static he ever mentioned was the coolness between Shatner and Takei, and Bill's own bitterness when they hired Walter Koenig to take his place at the navigation console.
You could ask Bjo Trimble....she actually spent time on the set. I didn't...I had to work during the daytime.
Idaho Spud made it clear that he disliked character's actions and dialogue, not the actors. Meanness was written into the script and approved by the director and studio head. *sigh*
Spud, "mean"? They were working from scripts written by somebody else....they were/are professionals. Actors. that's what they DO!
As I said before, I enjoyed the Spock character, but not as much as some of you. I think that's due to my irritation of some of the other characters actions and dialog.
I was often irritated by the doctor's meanness to Spock, but the captain annoyed me the most, especially when played by William Shatner. He often acted so emotionally and stupid, I wouldn't have voted for him as dog catcher, let alone a Star Ship Captain.
And here is a too-brief conversation between William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy on Shatner's Raw Nerve:

I agree wholeheartedly. This was a great project, and it would be a shame to see it go. I'd be willing to help anyway I can. I can mostly only help coding, I only knew Sherm through Camelbones.
So, with Sherm having sadly passed away, this leaves CamelBones in something of a limbo state. ĀHowever, I don't think Sherm would've wanted to see the project fade away, and I think seeing it properly moved forward would be
I know from our e-mails that Sherm was very close to a 2.0 version that statically bundled Perl so that it didn't break on system updates. ĀThat seems like a good path to go down, but unfortunately, he hadn't updated the SourceForge source image in a very, very long time. ĀAnd but I don't know how to get in touch with his family to see if they could get that off of his computer.
So anyone who works on a Lion-aware version would either have to try to do the interim 'build and bundle a new support bundle for Lion' method, which was already getting pretty hacky, or else would have to start over on all the changes he was making. :(
Anyone have any thoughts on how best to carry on Sherm's legacy, and carry CamelBones on both the way I used it (to allow Cocoa apps to be scripted in Perl) and the way I know others did (to allow entire apps to be written in Perl using the Objective-C interfaces)?

It has been two years since President Obama's takeover of our nation's health care system was enacted into law. Though time has passed, concerns over the law's costs and increasing government encroachment on Americans' health decisions remain as strong as ever.
Despite rosy predictions of lower health costs, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) now projects that the law's new benefit mandates will force premiums in the individual market to rise by $2,100 per family. In addition to rising costs for American workers and their families, the law will also impose a massive cost on our economy. In March, the CBO released an estimate showing that the health care overhaul will cost nearly $1.8 trillion over the next decade. That cost is expected to soar above $2 trillion once the law's expansion of Medicaid and taxpayer-funded health insurance subsidies are fully implemented.
As for the President's pledge that those who like their health care plan would be able to keep it? You can chalk that up as yet another broken promise. According to the CBO, the so-called Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) will actually force millions of Americans to lose their current health coverage. The budget office estimates that by 2016, five million Americans will lose the health insurance they have through their employer, a number that could reach as high as 20 million. Even the Obama Administration itself has estimated that the law's regulations and mandates will force up to 80% of our country's small businesses to drop their current plans.
Americans are rightfully concerned about ObamaCare because it kills jobs, raises taxes, expands government control, and increases the cost of health care. Specifically, the health care law slaps Americans and small businesses with $569 billion in new taxes. Americans who already have private health insurance will have their plans taxed under the new Washington-run health care system. Those who do not have health insurance and do not want it will also be forced to pay a tax.
Instead of government mandates and regulations, we need reforms that promote patient choice. This includes allowing insurance to be sold across state lines and allowing employees to retain their health coverage when they leave their jobs. Medical liability reform and allowing small businesses to pool their resources to provide health insurance to their employees are also key elements of future health reform that would come at a minimal cost to the government. As the Supreme Court continues to deliberate the fate of Obamacare, I will continue to work in Congress to defund and repeal this government intrusion into Americans' health care choices and promote free-market solutions that will bring down health care costs and ensure that personal health decisions remain in the hands of doctors and patients.

Mary Kubica is the New York Times bestselling author of THE GOOD GIRL and PRETTY BABY, and her latest book, DON'T YOU CRY, continues her tradition of riveting, character-driven thrillers. In it, one woman's disappearance may or may not be related to the mysterious arrival of a stranger in a small town, although only one thing is certain: The past will always catch up to us in the end. In this interview conducted by Carol Fitzgerald, the president and co-founder of The Book Report Network, Kubica reveals why she is drawn to characters who are experiencing inner turmoil, the themes that keep coming up unexpectedly in her work, and a surprising detail about her personal life.

Laura Barnett is a writer, journalist and theater critic, whose first novel, THE VERSIONS OF US, is now available in the US. It's a story of how lives intersect, of possibilities and consequences that ring across the shifting decades, of how even the smallest choices can define the course of our lives. In this interview with Carol Fitzgerald, the president and co-founder of The Book Report Network, Barnett discusses the challenges and delights of writing three versions of the same story and which story she likes best. She also opens up about her own feelings regarding fate and why she may not be as much of a romantic as she'd thought.
EVERYONE BRAVE IS FORGIVEN, #1 New York Times bestselling author Chris Cleave's latest book, is a spellbinding novel about three unforgettable individuals thrown together by war, love and their search for belonging in the ever-changing landscape of WWII London. In this interview, Cleave reveals why he could not have written this book without the illuminating conversations he had with people who lived through the war, the one and only way a love letter can bridge the distance between two people, and why prestigious prizes should be awarded to all the books that remain unpublished.
Since her debut, Laura Lippman has won multiple awards and critical acclaim for her excellent crime novels, set in her hometown of Baltimore. Her latest book, WILDE LAKE, is as provocative and timely as ever; the New York Times bestselling author challenges our notions of memory, loyalty, responsibility and justice in this psychologically complex story about a long-ago death that still haunts a family. In this interview, Lippman talks to The Book Report Network's Sarah Rachel Egelman about why she prefers to write about strong women ("write what you know"), what she learned about rape culture while thinking about and researching this novel, and how WILDE LAKE parallels the Harper Lee classic TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD --- while diverging in one key way.

In this interview, Divakaruni discusses the various elements that inspired GODDESS --- including books by other authors, cultural mythology and personal experiences --- as well as the themes she seems to return to, intentionally or not, again and again in her work.

Kick of your Cinco de Mayo celebration with this fresh and booze-spiked shrimp ceviche recipe. Thanks to California Avocados for sponsoring this post and helping me to share this recipe with you.
Picture this. You're stretched out on a chaise lounge by the pool, with a view of the crashing waves beyond. In your hand is some sort of fruity cocktail, which you slowly sip while soaking up the warm rays of the sun. Multi-tasking at its best. And then a plate of refreshing shrimp ceviche is delivered to you. Would it be wrong to say that it's delivered by a handsome cabana who is NOT wearing a speedo? My fantasy, my cabana boy specifications.
This shrimp ceviche recipe (because really, that's what this little fantasy is all about) is mixed in a citrus and tequila sauce, then gently tossed with tomatoes, cilantro and plenty of creamy avocado.
Of course there is avocado. Is it really possible to celebrate Cinco de Mayo (that timing of my poolside dream) without avocado?
Two comments: "Now way!" and "Why would you want to?"
The growing season for California Avocados is here again. Really, I've been craving the creamy, heart-healthy fruit since we scooped out the last spoonful in October. So, now my mind is turning to Sweet Potato Hash with Creamy California Avocado Sauce and Black Bean Sliders with Creamy Avocado Sauce.
If you're planning a Cinco de Mayo celebration, my Kicked-Up Avocado Margaritas are must for sipping while enjoying this shrimp ceviche.
Traditional ceviche is made by "cooking" the shrimp in lime juice. The citric acid causes a reaction in that seafood that causes it to become opaque and firm, appearing to be cooked. However, I know that many people feel uncomfortable with seafood prepared this way, so I altered the approach slightly. The shrimp is blanched in boiling water for 1 minute, then marinated in lime juice (and tequila!) for 30 minutes.
One note of caution…please do NOT blanch the shrimp for more than one minute. It will become tough and rubbery, which takes away from that gorgeous, tender texture of traditional ceviche.
Now, excuse me while I transport myself back to that seaside fantasy with a plate of this shrimp ceviche recipe by my side.

- Cut the shrimp into ½-inch pieces and transfer to a medium bowl. Stir in the lime juice and tequila. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- To the shrimp mixture, add the tomato, avocado, jalapeno, cilantro and salt. Stir gently to combine.
- Serve with tortilla chips or crackers.

The Fox Business Network will launch in 30 million homes on October 15. According to Multichannel News, Neil Cavuto, the managing editor and senior vice president of business news for Fox News Channel and host of Your World, will "oversee content and business coverage" on the new channel. Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of News Corp., which owns Fox News, reportedly said that the Fox Business channel would be "more business friendly than CNBC." Fox News chairman and chief executive Roger Ailes said, according to The New York Times: "Many times I've seen things on CNBC where they are not as friendly to corporations and profits as they should be." TV Week recently reported that the anchor lineup of the Fox Business Network will include: Forbes on Fox host David Asman, Fox News business contributor Stuart Varney, Bulls & Bears host Brenda Buttner, Cashin' In host Terry Keenan, and business news correspondent Dagen McDowell.
As Media Matters for America documents below, if these anchors' reporting on Fox News is any indication, viewers can expect from the Fox Business Network team: rampant falsehoods, statements praising the Bush administration, suggestive questioning, scantily clad women, and celebrities discussing the news of the day.
Cavuto has been the host of Your World, Fox News' "daytime financial program," since July 1996. He has since become the managing editor and senior vice president of business news for the channel. Cavuto's purported business coverage has included the following:
- On January 16, Cavuto asked if The New York Times is "in mourning again" as a result of the hanging deaths of Saddam Hussein's half brother and another Saddam deputy, or as Cavuto put it, "because murderers in Iraq face justice."
- On November 16, 2006, Cavuto endorsed then-U.S. ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton, who was seeking Senate confirmation after ascending to the position in March 2005 via a recess appointment. Cavuto stated that the low probability of the Senate confirming Bolton was "not right" and twice asked if "there [is] another way around" the Senate's confirmation process, wondering whether there was "an alternative way of paying" Bolton's salary or giving him "a different title." Cavuto also praised Bolton, saying that he has done "a pretty fine job" as ambassador.
- On October 20, 2006, Cavuto failed to challenge then-White House press secretary Tony Snow's false claim that "since the president cut taxes in 2003, the Dow Jones is up 60 percent. The Nasdaq is up 80 percent." In fact, even without adjusting for inflation, the Dow Jones industrial average and Nasdaq Composite index had grown at nowhere near the rate that Snow alleged after Bush's second major round of tax cuts in 2003. Moreover, when adjusted for inflation, the value of both stock indices had decreased since President Bush's first major tax cut package in June 2001.
- On October 17, 2006, during a discussion of President Bush's "likability," Cavuto falsely claimed: "I think most Americans, when they're polled on the likability of this president, he polls highly in that regard. It's just on the issues like the war and concerns about the economy ... that's what gets it -- it's not his personality." In fact, polling at the time indicated that in addition to his poor job approval ratings, Bush also polled poorly on "likability."
- Discussing the balance between civil liberties and security on August 22, 2006, Cavuto suggested that the British have "been pragmatic" in their efforts to combat terrorism, adding that they have enacted some counterterrorism laws that would be unconstitutional in the United States because the British "have a tradition of wanting to live."
- Referring to the National Security Agency's (NSA) just-exposed program to collect the phone call records of millions of Americans, Cavuto declared on May 11, 2006: "Yes, it is not great to necessarily hear they're collecting our phone records, but it's a heck of a lot better than collecting our remains."
- During a March 23, 2006, interview with Rep. Ron Lewis (R-KY), Cavuto asked: "[I]f Jesus were to come back today, would he like Republicans or Democrats more?" Lewis replied: "Jesus is neither Republican or Democrat, or for that matter, any particular national creed. God loves all people."
On-screen question marks
On-screen graphics featuring a statement followed by a question mark are a fixture on Your World. Following are examples of Your World using such graphics to suggest a position:
- During an August 13 discussion of White House deputy chief of staff Karl Rove's resignation, on-screen text read: "Karl Rove leaving: A loss for Wall Street?" Cavuto posed this question to his guests, Weekly Standard executive editor Fred Barnes and Fox News director of business news Alexis Glick, and, indeed, Cavuto, Barnes, and Glick all agreed that Rove's departure from the White House would be a "loss for Wall Street."
- A January 17 segment on global warming featured on-screen text that read: "Global Warming?" and "Nation in a Deep Freeze: What Global Warming?" Cavuto began the segment by noting freezing temperatures in Texas, Arizona, and California and asking if these temperatures were "[p]roof that all this hype over global warming could be just that -- hype?"
- On August 16, 2006, Cavuto introduced a segment on media coverage of the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict by asking, "[I]s the liberal media fueling terror?" Throughout the segment, on-screen text read: "Is the liberal media helping to fuel terror?"
- During an August 14, 2006, segment on which U.S. president has had the most effective Mideast policy, the on-screen text read: "The #1 President On Mideast Matters: George W. Bush?"
- Cavuto ended the May 22, 2006, edition of Your World with the following teaser for the next day's program: "Are Democratic leaders who criticize the war in Iraq actually aiding the terrorists? Why Nevada Senator John Ensign [R] says, 'You bet they are.' " An on-screen graphic read, "Dems helping the enemy?"

Another Your World staple is frequent video of scantily clad women:
- On May 4, 2006, Cavuto interviewed Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and Playboy model Kara Monaco, who had just been named the 2006 Playmate of the Year. In introducing the segment, Cavuto offered a pre-emptive defense of the interview -- presumably to those who would question its suitability for a "financial program" -- saying: "[T]his really is a big, big business story. The winner becomes the new face of Playboy, itself an empire, for the next year, representing the company around the world and schmoozing with powerful business titans." The ensuing interview, however, was light on business discussion but featured plenty of scantily clad and nude (though obscured) footage of Monaco.
- Just before adult film actress Mary Carey was to attend a March 16, 2006, fundraising dinner given by the National Republican Congressional Committee, Cavuto interviewed Carey about her professed intention to run for California governor for a second time in the upcoming election. But before hosting Carey on Your World, Cavuto teased the interview with video footage of Carey dressed in a French maid's uniform performing a pole dance. Over video footage of Carey pole-dancing, Cavuto informed viewers, "Her political platform included taxing breast implants and making lap dances tax deductible. But before you laugh at porn star Mary Carey, remember this: She placed 10th of 135 candidates running for California governor. Wait 'til you hear what she's up to now."
- A Media Matters review of Fox News programs from December 5-15, 2005, found at least eight different segments featuring photographs or video footage of nude or nearly nude women, as well as discussions on news programs of "hot" videos, and an item on provocative attire in the workplace. Your World featured six of the eight segments.
The editions of Your World guest-hosted by Asman have also featured leading questions:
- On December 21, 2006, during Asman's interview with Michael Farr, president of the investment firm Farr, Miller & Washington, about the positive effects of mild winters on the economy, an on-screen graphic read: " 'Global Warming': Great for Business & Economy?" Asman led into the interview by saying, "[M]y next guest says if what's happening in New York is global warming, he's all for it." Farr responded, "Well, now, hang on, David. First of all, global warming is a very serious issue, and it could have devastating effects. That we are having a milder winter is a really good thing for the economy, and milder winters are always pretty good." Farr later added, "Global warming is not a good thing. Global warming is a tremendously bad thing."
- On April 10, 2006, during a discussion of nationwide protests of proposed immigration legislation, Asman wondered: "With so many illegals hitting the streets, is this the perfect time to round up these lawbreakers and ship them out?" As Asman spoke, the on-screen text read "Round 'Em Up?" Throughout the following segment, the on-screen text read: "Perfect Chance to Arrest Illegal Immigrants?"
- A February 23, 2006, segment on escalating sectarian violence in Iraq featured on-screen text that read: " 'Upside' To Civil War?" and "All-Out Civil War in Iraq: Could It Be a Good Thing?"
And scantily clad women:
- In a May 12, 2006, Your World segment titled "Porn to Run," Asman interviewed Steven Hirsch, co-founder and CEO of Vivid Entertainment Group, about the business of Internet pornography. Throughout the interview, the broadcast was split-screened with footage from adult movies produced by Vivid Entertainment; the clips aired during the interview featured scantily clad women pole-dancing and stripping in front of men. Hirsch has made several appearances on Your World to discuss the sex industry.
- On February 23, 2006, Asman interviewed Anna Benson, proprietor of Anna Benson Enterprises, a website that features a photo gallery of Benson in provocative poses and that also links to a poker website with which she is affiliated. During a portion of the interview devoted to Benson's negative views on People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and filmmaker Michael Moore, Asman aired some of the site's photographs and observed, "There's some pictures of you in some very, ah, wonderful poses."
Varney, Buttner, Keenan, and McDowell
While guest-hosting or appearing on Your World, Varney, Buttner, Keenan, and McDowell have advanced their own falsehoods and distortions, and have commonly expressed conservative or pro-Bush administration viewpoints:
- On December 29, 2006, Varney asked: "If and when Saddam [Hussein] is put to death, will The New York Times be in mourning about it?" Varney was discussing a December 29, 2006, New York Times editorial that said Saddam's trial was "flawed, politicized and divisive" and that executing him will not "automatically create a new and better Iraq." Subsequently, on January 1, Varney claimed that "it appears the paper of record is" mourning Saddam's death because "[t]oday's headline call[ed] the hanging 'a rush job.' " Varney then asked: "So, is the Times now an advocate for the Iraqi dictator?"
- During a January 2, 2006, discussion about what he dubbed "Hollywood Bush-bashing," Varney said, "[T]here has got to be a lot of people like me who will not go to see people who insulted my president in the year '04 and that election. I cannot divorce their talent from their political views."
- During a September 12, 2006, panel discussion of how the recent attack on the U.S. Embassy in Syria would affect the stock market, Buttner asserted that "Wall Street is very insular" and "the market's going to go down" if a terror attack occurs in the United States. Buttner then claimed: "Thank God and thank President Bush it hasn't happened here yet," adding that "they've [terrorists] been trying and President Bush has been trying to stop them despite the opposition of some very misled people."
- While interviewing right-wing pundit Ann Coulter on August 24, 2006, Buttner invited Coulter to elaborate on the "great job" she had done, in her most recent column, of bashing Democrats for not supporting the Bush administration's fight against terrorism.
- On May 29, Keenan pushed a misleading comparison between the national box office earnings over Memorial Day weekend of two recent blockbusters -- X-Men: The Last Stand and The Da Vinci Code -- and those received during the limited release of An Inconvenient Truth, a documentary on former Vice President Al Gore's campaign to raise worldwide awareness of global warming. Keenan noted that X-Men is "expected to earn more than $120 million ... as The Da Vinci Code fell to fourth place." She then added: "Al Gore's global warming documentary An Inconvenient Truth? Well, it earned less than half a million dollars during its quote, 'limited release.' " But Keenan neglected to mention that An Inconvenient Truth's "limited release" consisted of only four theaters nationwide, while the most recent installment of the X-Men series and The Da Vinci Code were shown on 3,690 and 3,754 theater screens respectively. Gore's documentary reportedly earned nearly three times more money per theatre screen than X-Men and more than eight times more per theatre screen than The Da Vinci Code over the three-day holiday weekend.
- Introducing a May 29, 2006, debate on the significance of riots that occurred in Kabul, Afghanistan, following a fatal accident involving a U.S. military truck, Keenan asked if the riots were the work of "a small group of troublemakers" or whether "the Afghan people [are] simply ungrateful?" During the segment, on-screen text read "Afghan Ingrates?" and "Is Afghanistan being Ungrateful Towards America?"
- On July 15, 2004, Keenan responded to a question from Cavuto about Wall Street's "consensus view" on whether Vice President Dick Cheney should stay on the Republican ticket, by asserting that Wall Street would "be happy to have Martha Stewart on the [GOP] ticket if it meant John Kerry wasn't gonna become the next president, because, I mean, this Kerry-Edwards ticket is the most liberal ticket since ... McGovern ran in 1972."
- On August 29, McDowell falsely claimed that Sens. Barack Obama (D-IL) and Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) "rack[ed] up another endorsement today, this one coming straight from Cuba's Fidel Castro," referring to an August 28 column by Castro in the Cuban newspaper Granma. In fact, at no point in his column did Castro endorse Clinton or Obama; to the contrary, he attributed to Clinton and Obama a pro-democratic view that he called an "error," and he said of Clinton and Obama, "They are not making politics: they are playing a game of cards on a Sunday afternoon."

Both Major League Soccer and the New York Red Bulls have denied an internet story that the league blocked the team's bid for the Atlanta Silverbacks' Macoumba Kandji because MLS felt the $200,000 asking price was too high for a player from the United Soccer Leagues.
"I have no idea who the source is for this story but it's absolute nonsense," said MLS Deputy Commissioner Ivan
Gazidis. "While I can't comment on this specific player since he's under contract to Atlanta, Red Bull and the League work absolutely in lockstep on player negotiations and the League has not
blocked any move for anyone by the Red Bulls."
The story had quoted unnamed sources as saying that MLS didn't want to set a precedent by paying so much for a minor league player. But a
team source stated the story was "not true" and "premature." Meanwhile Gazidis touched on a whole different topic by adding, "It's difficult to respond to blog entries where unknown sources are
referenced -- and of course blogs are driven by hits, not necessarily by the same standards as print media."

Jos PACT-Enablers meet
Jos PACT-Enablers meet
Sister Helena McEvilly FMDM shared the following report on a recent PACT-Enablers' meeting in Jos:
Sister Helena McEvilly FMDM, DPI Nigeria Country Coordinating Team, with PACT-Enablers at the 17th May 2009 meeting.
On a very wet afternoon on the 17th May 2009, fifteen PACT-Enablers and members of the DPI Nigeria Coordinating Team met at the Pastoral Centre, Jos, Nigeria, to share their experiences. During the meeting, participants shared on what they had been doing since they had last met, with many recalling how they had met with other PACT-Enablers and members of communities. It was noted that both the Muslim and Christian youth had organized a seminar for themselves thus creating a forum to meet and talk together. Their gathering was successful with various papers presented with a lot of open and frank communication. One of the PACT-Enablers, Pankshin, shared how there was a lot of tension in their area about 2 months ago, the PACT-Enablers from that area, got together and mobilized the people to prevent any problem arising there. The recent and successful football tournament, Harmonious kicks, was also shared upon, with some feeling disappointed that their areas had not been included, however it was explained that it was deliberately kept small for the first attempt and links were made with the enablers from certain areas for future planning. There was a general positive feeling among the group that things are beginning to happen. Sister Helena gave out information on Franciscan values, Interfaith relations, characteristic of DPI, the role of the PACT-Enabler, and a simple copy of the various relevant stories of Saint Francis of Assisi. In doing this, Sr Helena hoped to encourage the group to remain focused on what DPI aims to achieve, and to continue to stay focused on values. Additionally, these resources will give PACT-Enablers something to work with as they meet in small groups. A follow-up meeting will be held in two months time.

It's possible. I've put Mono on a Nortel Contivity 100 box, and it
works extremely well. I had to figure out a way to graph a monitor on to the
Contivity so I could see any error messages. That was the biggest hurdle.
After that, it was the watchdog circuitry that kept getting in the way. Once
I figured out what jumper to cut on the mobo to disable the watchdog, the
project then flew together pretty easy. Oh, I changed Mono so I could use
the serial port to display what would have been on the monitor. I have one

along. All the gory details were posted to this list about 6 weeks ago,

Sept. 17, 2009 – Definition from the Dictionary of Sustainable Management. Developed by the Presidio School of Management, San Francisco, CA, an affiliate of Alliant International University.
Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
This definition was created in 1987 at the World Commission on Environment and Development (the Brundtland Commission). It is enshrined in the Swiss federal constitution. It is similar to the seventh generation philosophy of the Native American Iroquois Confederacy, mandating that chiefs always consider the effects of their actions on their descendants seven generations in the future.
There are many ways to measure or define sustainability. As described in the book Natural Capitalism, in business, these should include the sustainable development and use of, at least, the following four types of capital:
In addition, many organizations use the following criteria to assess sustainable products, services, and other activities:

Hi everyone, I would like to be able to provide optimizations for my library based on how it's used, but don't know how to go about doing it. I have a function called (matrix-multiply A B) and another function called (matrix-transpose A) which are fundamental linear algebra operations. A very common usage is: (matrix-multiply (matrix-transpose A) B) However, to take the transpose of a matrix first, and then perform the multiplication is inefficient. It unnecessarily reorders the matrix A, when in fact it could just iterate over the elements of A in a different order during the multiplication. So one solution is to create another function: (matrix-transpose-multiply A B) which is equivalent to (matrix-multiply (matrix-transpose A) B) But this starts to clutter up the library. Is it possible to provide this optimization at the library level for the users? eg. somehow recognize that whenever the user writes (matrix-transpose-multiply A B) I can replace it with the internal function (matrix-transpose-multiply* A B)? and (let ([AT (matrix-transpose A)) (matrix-multiply AT B)) with (matrix-transpose-multiply* A B) What I'm essentially looking for is an organized way of providing these small specific optimizations to the user. I would like to know if such a feature exists and what it's called if it does. If it doesn't exist, do people think it *could* possibly exist or is it theoretically inconsistent?

Stopping Wage Garnishment in California
With the current unemployment rate at 9.4 percent, many Americans are struggling to make ends meet. Even if they receive unemployment benefits, this amount is barely enough to keep the lights on. Consumers that fall behind in paying their bills may end up being sued by their creditors. The bank or credit card company can obtain a default judgment when people fail to show up for a court hearing. An Earnings Withholding Order will be sent to their employer and creditors can garnish up to 25 percent of the individual's net income. There are a few ways to stop wage garnishment in California, which we will explore.
Keeping Creditors Away From Your Paycheck
Your first option to stop wage garnishment is to contact the creditor and work out a solution to pay back the debt owed. Creditors might be willing to set up a payment plan when the amount owed is relatively small. Other possible options include:
- File For An Exemption—Some people may be eligible for an exemption if they can show their income is needed to provide the basic necessities of life, such as food, rent or car payment. This must be filed within ten day after receiving the garnishment notice. Once the claim is filed, the court will decide how much of the individual's paycheck is required for living expenses.
- File For Bankruptcy—Although this may seem like a drastic step, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy can wipe out nearly all of your unsecured debts. Once the petition is filed, the judge issues an automatic stay preventing creditors from taking any further action. They are prohibited from contacting you or pursuing the debt.
Hire a California Debt Settlement Attorney
Garnishments that resulted from a small claims case can be stopped by filing a financial statement with the court. The individual can request that repayment of the debt be done in installments due to financial reasons. The small claims court judge will make the final decision. If your wages have been garnished, contact a lawyer that specializes in debt settlement or bankruptcy law.

Lemieux earmark part of 18th District debate
The challenger for Republican Congressman Tim Murphy's 18th District seat in the November election is criticizing the incumbent's $100,000 earmark in 2010 for a charity founded by Mario Lemieux.
Washington County Commissioner Larry Maggi said on Tuesday that he would never give taxpayers' money to celebrity charities — not when there's a $16 trillion federal deficit and too many Americans need jobs.
"Tim Murphy has a history of saying one thing and doing another, which is why he campaigns against earmarks and gave taxpayer money to a lobster institute in Maine and $50,000 for a mule museum in California," said Maggi, a Democrat, retired Pennsylvania State trooper and former Washington County sheriff.
The Tribune-Review reported on the Murphy earmark to Lemieux's charity as part of its "Unlevel Playing Field" investigation on Sunday, which revealed current and former athletes such as Penguins co-owner Lemieux, Baltimore Orioles iron man Cal Ripken Jr., multimillionaire tennis star Andre Agassi and billionaire golfer Tiger Woods received millions in taxpayer dollars for their charities.
Murphy and his campaign staffers didn't return messages seeking comment for the stories, so the Trib met the congressman at a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday for the new classrooms at Greensburg's Private Industry Council.
Murphy refused to discuss his other earmarks since arriving in Washington in 2002, but defended the Centers for Disease Control earmark to help fund Lemieux's anti-cancer campaign — even when the cancer survivor's foundation reported having more than $2.4 million in private donations of its own to spend.
"That's not an issue," said Murphy. "It was helping people with cancer."
Maggi agreed that Lemieux's charity, which also built five children's playrooms in medical facilities around the region, is a "great cause." However, Maggi said deficit spending shouldn't have funded it. Maggi lost his wife, Ceridwen, to cancer in 1989. Doctors found a tumor roped around her spine while she was pregnant with their son, Ian Lawrence. The baby died two weeks after being born.
In the GOP primary in April, Tea Party member Evan Feinberg snatched 37 percent of the Republican vote after relentlessly drilling Murphy on the incumbent's spending.
An analysis of legislative earmarks from 2008-10 performed by the nonprofit Center for Responsive Politics found 61 percent of Murphy's earmarks went to campaign donors — fourth highest in the 111th Congress.
A self-imposed moratorium on earmark spending has ruled Congress for the past two years.
There's no record of Lemieux or his family contributing to Murphy's campaign. The Trib investigation found that Lemieux's charity has spent $202,763 on lobbyists to help obtain more than $500,000 in state and federal grants since 2004.
The Trib also found a needy charity that tirelessly spreads the message about cancer – without the help of lobbyists, celebrity athletes or large government grants. Patients Against Lymphoma pays its full-time president, Karl Schwartz of Bucks County, $18,000 annually out of a budget that's never crested above $45,000. Because the nonprofit counsels patients about treatment trials and frets about the appearance of impropriety, it's refused health industry help since its founding in 2002.
Schwartz didn't know that the CDC and other agencies were handing out $100,000 grants to alert the public about lymphoma. The nonprofit reports 8,000 subscribers to its online forums on cancer survivor issues and 50,000 unique visitors arrive monthly to check out its "Lymphomation" website.
"We're struggling," said Schwartz. "I don't even have the resources to travel to Washington, much less hire a lobbyist."

USGS Groundwater Information: Branch of Geophysics
A Joint Project of USGS, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5,
and Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM), France
Magnetic resonance sounding (MRS) surveys were conducted at Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in November 2001. The surveys were conducted in unconsolidated glacial sediments, primarily sands and silts. This study explored if and how MRS could be used to locate a borehole.
The data collected at Cape Cod were inverted to solve for estimated water content, relative permeability of the sediments, and the decay time of the magnetic resonance signal. The graphs below show, from left to right: water content and T1 decay time, in percent, with depth; relative permeability in meters per second, with depth; and the change in amplitude of the signal with time.

Tax sale ineffective if nobody wants the property
Tax sale ineffective if nobody wants the property
NORTH STONINGTON — It used to be that putting a property up for tax sale would prompt the occupant to arrange a payment plan with the town. If that didn't happen, then the town would easily recoup the money through the sale.
Recently, however, there have been a few cases where the town has come out — or might come out, depending on pending court judgments — on the losing side, stuck with a piece of property nobody wants.
These cases are infrequent, usually accompanied with irregular circumstances. According to First Selectman Nicholas Mullane II, the problem is the residue of the housing bubble prior to 2007.
"In my opinion the banks have given people mortgages that have put people over their heads," he said at last week's meeting of the Board of Selectmen. "These cases are exceptional because in each case nobody wanted them at tax sale."
The topic had been broached before, but was discussed again in the presence of Tax Collector Sandra Steinhart on Feb. 11.
In the most recent case, the owner of a house at 101 Anthony Road fell behind on the taxes, got sick and ultimately died. With taxes and other costs, the town was owed $17,500.
With few options, the property went to auction for taxes, but none of the five contractors present wanted the property.
"It was deplorable," said Ronald Lewis, of North Stonington, who was there for the tax sale and present at the selectmen's meeting. Lewis said that wood on the first floor had rotted into the earthen basement and the presence of lead paint and asbestos tile or insulation was highly likely
According to Lewis it would cost $30,000 to demolish the two-story structure.
A common-share driveway and the likelihood of a bad septic system were not even discussed.
"When you say 'foreclosure,' that doesn't always work," Mullane said.
After much discussion, the selectmen voted to file a motion in court — at a cost of $400 — in order to have the bank retain ownership of the property.
"That's the sad reality of what's going on today," Mullane said. "The town does not want to be in the housing business. The bank gave people these difficult mortgages, the bank can keep it."
Over the next month the selectmen plan on establishing an internal procedure to deal with such cases.
Steinhart told the selectmen that most property tax payments are timely and those that are not are due to human error.
"Some people are late, some people need to be reminded," she said.
She also explained that her office is willing to work with the public should the need arise.
"We don't usually go to foreclosure at all," she said. "We also don't usually get stuck with these properties and we don't like to send these properties to the town solicitor."
Selectman Robert Testa said that the town should be aware of opportunities that would help the town's Affordable Housing Commission.
In fact, the commission asked if the town would consider obtaining 101 Anthony Road, which Mullane declined, explaining the property would be a large investment to renovate.

Post subject: Huge win for us, but is anyone else concerned?
Beating the reigning NFL champs is a pretty big deal, especially for a franchise that has been pretty tumultuous over the last decade. However, as big as the win was I am still seeing some major flaws in our game.
The defense is been nothing short of amazing this year, with the exception of the Jets game. Picking off Joe Flacco 5 times was huge and obviously had a major impact on the score of the game. I can't help but notice we won the game in spite of our pitiful offense.
Sure, you can say we ran for over 200 yards, but keep in mind that was for a disgusting 3.7 ypc. Complicating matters even further was EJ's inconsistent day only completing 10 of his 22 attempts. He finished the day with a 48.9 QB rating. To put that in perspective, Joe Flacco's QB rating was 46.4. Yikes.
Mike Pettine has turned an athletic defensive group who underperformed thanks to prevalent misuse. The aggressive play calling has eased the burden on our offense, giving them fantastic field position and keeping us in many games.
We brought in Marrone, an offensive guru, who then brought in Hackett. Hackett promised a fast paced offensive and he delivered, but he never promised a consistently good one.
Sometimes when I am watching the Bills offense, I wonder if they've ever seen Spiller play prior to coming to Buffalo. It almost seems like we are trying to force Spiller to conform to a style a play which is clearly detrimental to our offense. Maybe it is because I am used to seeing Gailey masterfully use Spiller and get him in the open field, but it really seems like Hackett and co. really have no clue what to do with Spiller. Granted we have two offensive philosophies in play (Hackett vs Gailey), don't you (at some point) try to fix the problem. They've used Spiller pretty much the same way for 4 straight games. It is becoming quite bothersome.
I understand the offense is limited given we have a rookie QB at the helm. Generally though, young QBs seem to be more productive utilizing screens and short passing plays. I'd like to see more screens to divert pressure and maximize Spiller's strengths. I'd also like to see them move EJ around the pocket it a little bit. EJ's internal clock is still developing, so having him roll out and get him on the run should make better use of the field and get our skilled players in a position to make a big play.
There are certainly more things I'd like to change with the offense, but these are the most pressing issues I see the Bills have. While we did get the win, I feel like these gaping deficiencies is what is going to keep us from being a playoff team. Our defensive unit is pretty special, so I just wish Hackett can make better use of our talents to make us more competitive offensively.

Or you could look at it like our best offensive player has yet to break out and our secondary hasn't even been close to healthy, yet we've been in every game and won two of them despite this. Imagine once the secondary gets healthy and Spiller finds a groove and EJ matures more.

Now I drank some during the first 3 games, but I am pretty sure we haven't run a screen to Spiller or any RB at all this year. I agree that I don't think Marrone is using Spiller correctly. I think part of it is the read option. Spiller does damage outside the tackles and in space like you said. Problem is in the read option the RB has to run across the entire line before getting outside, opposed to say a pitch or stretch play where you can take an angle.
I think the read option can work for us, especially with the mobility of EJ, but we need to throw in some quick pitches and definitely some screen passes to get Spiller the ball, if we don't, I can't really see the Bills resigning C.J. when the time comes, they would benefit more for a north and south back.

Wouldn't say I'm "worried". We look like just a so-so team but how close the games have been keeps me optimistic. The team is playing tough and just hanging around. Even in the Jets game. We had no business being in that game. Reminds me a lot of the first few years Rex was in NY. The team was just so-so but they played tough and kept games close. Pulled out a lot of games and went to the AFC championship games.

Outside of the Jets game, I think they've been good. The offense has put them in a BUNCH of horrible situations. EJ turned the ball over inside our own 35 twice in the 4th quarter of the Carolina game. Both led to 3 points rather than 7. That's the ball game right there. They played well against the patriots. CJ fumbled on our own 15? Yard line. That was an automatic 7 for Brady. The first touchdown of the Baltimore game was a fumble inside our own 40. Later EJ threw a INT at our own 45. A.Williams intercepted a pass in the end zone on the next drive. I think they've performed great and the offense hasn't done them any favors.
(Pretty sure most of those details are accurate. That's reaching back in my memory)

I'll save you a seat on the bandwagon if you want. Our D has been playing lights out. We kept Brady in check, beat the heck out of Cam Newton, Jets game wasn't great but we did make some nice plays, and we held RAY FREAKIN RICE and co. to 27, yes 27 rushing yards, also not to mention the 5, yes 5 picks of Flacco.
Oh and BTW we are doing this with out our shutdown CB and playmaking FS.
Our D would have a lot better numbers if #26 wasn't playing.
But you already knew that ...

Molecular evolution, Statistical inference with phylogenetic sequence data, Computational biology
My main research interest is the area of statistical inference in molecular evolution. I am interested in model selection, either based on an information theoretic approach, or on penalized likelihood approaches. One of my aim is to detect what group of genes share the same genealogy, and to draw inference on the distribution of genealogies across the genome. This area involves statistical issues of model selection, hierarchical modeling of species genealogies and gene genealogies, and it also involves computational challenges. Indeed, molecular data become available faster than appropriate methods of analysis.
I am also interested in developing and detecting good models of molecular evolution, such as the covarion model. Covarion drift and/or covarion shift is detected in an increasing number of analyzes, and it becomes more and more accepted that various DNA sites have evolved at various speed across their history. This variation in speed of evolution is called heterotachy, when different DNA sites choose to vary in different ways. There is a growing body of literature on the consistency of likelihood-based methods that ignore heterotachy, and a growing number of models and ways to estimate the amount of heterotachy.
More recently, I have been interested in using phylogenetic trees to analyze trait evolution, using the 'comparative methods'. In particular, I investigate the large sample properties of these methods.

After 25 years on the air, NPR's chatty Car Talk duo are finally putting on the brakes.
READ: Their note to listeners.
Tom Magliozzi, 74, and his brother, Ray, 63, announced today that they will stop making episodes of Car Talk at the end of September, NPR says in a statement.
The Saturday morning chat show about cars features the real-life Boston mechanics bantering about automobiles, car repairs or whatever else is on their mind.
"My brother has always been 'work-averse,' " says Ray, 63, in explaining the move. "Now, apparently, even the one hour a week is killing him!"
"It's brutal!" Tom adds.
NPR says in a statement that it will "actively produce new shows built from the best of its 25 years of material – more than 1,200 shows – with some updates from the brothers."

Just bought Cybook Gen3 (EB600)!
Well, I figured the 15% reduction in price yesterday was an omen that I ought to go ahead and buy it! I'm still not exactly certain what model it is, but the box states 400 MHz, 1GB, 8 greyscale levels and the Adobe+ePub DRM support - so I'm content. Plus, it came with a *2-year* in-store warranty so I don't have to mail it anywhere if it breaks. The final price (including VAT) was 219 euros - which is very good for Greece where most electronics are 20% higher price than everywhere else and are available 1-year later!
The only thing it doesn't have is a protective case. This is not such a big deal since I do not plan on travelling with it. I have the 5" jetBook for travelling. I can't wait to compare the reading experience!
Now it's charging and I'll play with it later this evening. I appreciate all the great info on MobileRead forum that helped me make an informed decision. I think the store clerks were quite surprised that I knew so much about the device (they had no idea...even as to the price reduction which was on their website but not listed in the store!).

New nVidia-Based Cards Hit Every Price Range
PNY GeForce 7900GTX OC Limited EditionPCWorld Rating
BFG Technologies GeForce 7900 GT OCPCWorld Rating
XFX GeForce 7600 GT Video Card (256MB, PCI Express x16, Dual DVI)PCWorld Rating
New video cards based on nVidia's latest crop of chips offer something for just about everyone: an ultra-high-end board for big spenders, an inexpensive power card for serious speed enthusiasts, and a fast mainstream product for generalists. I examined three shipping products using the chips, and got some interesting results.
You receive more than just the oversize two-slot board in PNY Technologies' $525 GeForce 7900 GTX Limited Edition package. The company throws in a handy tool kit, a 500MB flash drive, and a felt-lined metal carrying case (with a too-flimsy plastic lid). The extras are fun--though getting a game or two would have been nice--but the primary reason to buy a graphics board like this is performance, and in that respect the 7900 GTX's results were mixed.
That's not to say that it isn't fast--it is--but in our tests the 512MB board rarely outperformed a previously tested XFX GeForce 7800 GTX XXX Edition; admittedly, however, the new card costs considerably less than the outrageous $750 commanded by that hard-to-find board. The 7900 GTX did outrun ATI's $600 Radeon X1900 XTX on most tasks, though not often by a significant margin. In the end, PNY's card didn't blow by the competition, but the 7900 GTX did earn our top performance rating for the power category.
Specifically, in tests conducted at 1600 by 1200 resolution with antialiasing turned off, the 7900 GTX beat competing boards (frequently by just a few frames per second) on five tests and tied on three other tests with the 7800 GTX. The 7800 GTX won a single test, as did the X1900 XTX. The 7900 GTX's less-than-astounding performance on our tests is not entirely its fault--these high-end cards are so fast that they're starting to outpace the rest of our test systems in some benchmarks.
One notch below the 7900 GTX is BFG Technologies' $330 GeForce 7900 GT OC, with 256MB of memory. BFG does not offer much in the way of extras (the only included application is GameDrive 9.0); but for the budget-minded performance hound, this card is a solid bet. In our tests it generally outperformed the competing XFX GeForce 7800 GT ($300) and Asus Radeon EAS X1800 XL ($380).
King of Mainstream
Both the 7900 GTX and the 7900 GT OC are quite fast, but my favorite of this group is XFX's GeForce 7600GT XXX Edition. This $209 card comes with XFX's excellent manuals and accessories, as well as one slightly dated game (Starship Troopers), but the real draw here is the speedy little single-slot graphics board itself.
The 7600GT sped away with nearly every test that we ran, earning the top performance score possible in our mainstream category. Its performance was notably impressive versus such comparable cards as EVGA's $179 e-GeForce 6800 GS and PowerColor's Radeon X1600 XT Bravo Edition ($169). XFX's graphics board was the clear winner at both of our test resolutions (1024 by 768 and 1600 by 1200) and with antialiasing turned on or turned off.
With its most recent product launch, nVidia has rolled out chips to suit just about everyone. If you've waited to buy at the high end, you won't be disappointed by the 7900 cards (7800 owners should skip this upgrade, though). And the 7600GT is a winner, offering top-of-its-class performance at a reasonable price.
BFG Technologies GeForce 7900 GT OC
Geared toward performance-minded buyers on a budget, this card is light on extras--but the performance won't disappoint.

When your brand connects to people it transcends recognition and becomes something bigger. Onseeker Technologies builds branding tools that connect you with your clients on a deeper level. Branding is much more about logo design. When you notice something well designed, it catches your eye and stays with you. Brands that are highly effective are the most memorable because they appeal to our innate senses.
Brands we're most aware of are brands we trust, they're familiar, they elicit a response that goes deeper than just recognition. We take all of these factors into consideration when we begin branding for our clients. Consistency is another extremely important factor in branding. If you're looking for a new brand identity, consistency (from business cards to letterhead) will help embed the change faster. Let us help build your branding guidelines so that consistency will be kept at the forefront of the process.
When we branded our company with our new logo, we approached it over a three month timeframe. We must've sketched and designed hundreds of ideas and concepts, all leading to the current logo we chose. The Onseeker logo is simple, but draws your attention with the backwards E. The color we chose looks striking on letterhead, business cards, and all print/web materials that we've created. Let us brand your company as well. We'll take the same care and dedication with your brand as we did with ours.

Rehberg Responds to Bush Administration Decision to Remove Executive Ban on Off-Shore Energy Exploration
Montana's Congressman, Denny Rehberg, today issued the following statement in response to the President's decision to lift an 18-year old executive ban on responsible energy exploration along America's Outer Continental Shelf:
"Exploration of our nation's Outer Continental Shelf will provide Montanans some much-need relief at the pump. And the president's removal of the executive ban is huge part of making that exploration possible. However, it only solves half of the problem. The House and Senate now need to move forward with legislation to lift the congressional ban so we can start developing the domestic energy opportunities right off our own shore."
Last week, Rehberg signed onto a letter to President Bush asking him to lift the ban.

Homestead rejects street workers pact
Homestead council has rejected a three-year collective bargaining agreement with the street department employees' union.
The proposed pact with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees was defeated Thursday by a 5-1-1 vote.
Council vice president Barbara Broadwater and Councilors Drew Borcik, Wanda Burwell, Zaneta Hines and Donald Turner were in the majority.
Burwell said there could be a better agreement for the street department.
"We're looking out for the workers," she said. "By pushing this, maybe they will revisit it and we can get a better deal for them. That's the main thing. It's to help them, not to hurt them. They have to go back now and renegotiate."
"For the little man working on the street for us, making a good deal of our money, they're not giving them anything," Turner said.
Councilman Lloyd Cunningham voted in favor of the agreement. Council president Susan Titmus abstained.
"The street department and their union representatives and borough representatives sat down and negotiated it," Cunningham said. "They came to a contract that they were all happy with. There's no good reason not to pass it, in my mind."
Council approved an agreement with the Homestead Volunteer Fire Co. regarding financing the purchase of a 2003 Aerial Fire Truck, which cost approximately $307,000.
Councilors authorized sending Hines and Burwell to the Allegheny League of Municipalities Spring Conference at a total cost of $521.60. Hines and Burwell will attend for two days instead of four.
Council made several appointments, including Cunningham to a two-year term on the Steel Valley Enterprise Zone; Susan Andreko, Sharon Ford and Don Dais to three-year terms on the Zoning Hearing Board; and Mary Beth O'Hare to a four-year term on the planning commission.
A letter of credit from BNP Paribas on behalf of Bottom Dollar Northeast, LLC was approved by councilors. The discount grocery chain will open a store at 127 E. Eighth Ave. in the summer.
A motion to adopt a resolution amending the fee schedule to include a $10 fee for duplicate sewer bills was tabled so that council can gather more information.

Fantasy by Jay Skurski: Don't sleep on these potential late-season difference-makers
If this column means something to you this week, congratulations.
That means you're either in the fantasy postseason, or still have something to play for in Week 14.
As such, here's a look at a few sleeper players who could swing the results in your favor this weekend:
Shane Vereen, RB, New England: He's seen his point total go up in the past three weeks, and scored a touchdown on one of his 15 touches in Week 14. Vereen is especially solid in points-per-reception leagues. He has 21 catches the past three games.
Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Arizona: Rookie Andre Ellington sat out last week for the Cardinals, giving Mendenhall the chance to put up season highs for carries (18) and yards (76). He didn't reach the end zone, but his opponent Sunday, St. Louis, has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs.
Doug Baldwin, WR, Seattle: Baldwin has at least 60 yards receiving in his past four games, and has scored touchdowns in three of them. The matchup is tough this week against San Francisco, but Baldwin is worthy of being a No. 3 or flex receiver.
Kendall Wright, WR, Tennessee: Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has completed 28 passes to Wright over the last month. There is a good chance the Titans will be chasing points Sunday against Denver.
Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta: After watching him in Toronto last Sunday, I'm convinced Ryan is a good quarterback just having a down season. Ryan threw for 311 yards and a touchdown against the Bills, and faces a Green Bay team on Sunday that was beaten up on Thanksgiving Day by Detroit. With Roddy White once again healthy and a running game that's started to pick up steam, Ryan is once again relevant for fantasy purposes.
Jared Cook, TE, St. Louis: Cook smoked the Cardinals for 141 yards and two touchdowns in the season opener. It's been downhill since then, but he gets the rematch with Arizona on Sunday. The Cardinals have allowed 14 touchdowns to opposing tight ends, including six in the past three weeks.
Oakland defense: The Raiders have a good matchup against the Jets on Sunday. New York has allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing defenses, and has allowed 15 or more fantasy points in four of the past five games to defenses. Oakland scored a defensive touchdown last week, and has been a decently consistent unit.
Gordon going crazy
Cleveland receiver Josh Gordon is the hottest player in fantasy football. Just look at these numbers over the past three games – 29 catches, 623 yards(!) and four touchdowns.
Gordon has 64 catches for 1,249 yards and seven touchdowns in just 10 games played. Projected over a 16-game season, that works out to a pace of 102 catches, 1,998 yards and 11 touchdowns. That would be the most single-season receiving yards in NFL history. Gordon already has entered the record books by becoming the first receiver in league history to post back-to-back 200-yard receiving games.
Given that he was suspended for the first two games of the season, Gordon is also one of the best values in fantasy football. His average draft position was 110 in CBS Sports leagues.
Gordon's upcoming schedule includes a trip to New England on Sunday, then a home game against Chicago. If he keeps it up, he could decide several fantasy championships.
Analyzing the Bills
Running backs C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson have a good chance of going back-to-back weeks with solid fantasy production. The Tampa Bay run defense has allowed an average of 5.0 yards per carry and 343 yards over the past three weeks.
Spiller (149 yards, one touchdown) and Jackson (78 total yards, two touchdowns) both put up big fantasy days against Atlanta in Week 13. They continue to hurt the other's value, but are worthy of being in your lineup Sunday.
Bills receiver Stevie Johnson has fared well against Buccaneers cornerback Darrelle Revis, but with only one touchdown since Week Three, it's hard to trust Johnson as a fantasy play.
Tampa Bay receiver Vincent Jackson has had a solid fantasy season with 61 receptions, 963 yards and five touchdowns. Jackson, however, has been limited in practice because of a hamstring injury. He's a solid start if he plays, so keep an eye on the inactives Sunday morning.
Bucs running back Bobby Rainey had a huge game in Week 11, rushing for 163 yards and two touchdowns. But Rainey has been mostly bottled up the past two weeks, gaining just 98 combined yards without scoring. The Bills' run defense has allowed a combined 370 yards and five touchdowns to opposing running backs in the past five weeks.
He should get 20 touches Sunday, which makes Rainey a good flex option, or No. 2 running back in deeper leagues.

Previously, the only mini-pci cards that would work with monowall were 802.11b Atheros cards. Since
the beta series upgrade to FreeBSD 6.x, have there been any changes to these limitations? Can
802.11g cards be used? Any chipset other than Atheros? If anyone has used an 802.11g mini-pci
wireless card in the monowall 1.3 branch, I'd love to hear about your experiences. Thank you!
