Positive people, positive thinking, positive results is the motto of the newly formed nonprofit organization Action Riders.
The group, formed by Rick Gish, Pacific, and Susan "Rebel" Sweet, Gray Summit, was founded to help people in Franklin County who are in a crisis.
The first meeting was held in September and the group was incorporated in October. There were nine people at the first meeting.
"We have expanded from the original nine to 89," Gish said, adding that though many of the members are involved in the motorcycle rights group Freedom of Road Riders, Action Riders is made up of motorcyclists and non-motorcyclists.
"You don't even have to like motorcycles," Gish said. "All you've got to do is want to help give back to the community."
In fact, anyone is welcome to join the group. The current youngest member is 7 years old and the oldest member is 87, Gish said.
"If you want to come and help us out with a fundraiser to raise money to help people in the community, then this is a way to step up and do it," Gish said.
Helping Hands
So far, the group has helped a couple who had a house fire in St. Clair and a Washington couple involved in a motorcycle accident.
After the accident on Highway 94, Sweet also helped get the pothole that caused the accident fixed.
"There are too many people who need help in our community," Gish said.
To request help, people only need to fill out an information sheet. Sweet said Action Riders will help people find other resources as well.
Information can be found online at actionriders.org.
Officers include Gish, president; Sweet, vice president; Paula Williams, secretary; and Sandy Hall, treasurer. Five trustees also help make decisions for the group.
In five years, Gish said he would like to see a chapter of Action Riders in every county in Missouri. There currently are group members representing five counties.
Unofficial meetings, or informational gatherings, are held the last Sunday of each month at the Pacific Eagles Hall, at 4:30 p.m. The next meeting will be held May 20. Dues are $10 per year.
Each meeting, members are asked to bring a canned good or toiletry item. Items are donated to a different food pantry in Franklin County each month.
The group also has food donation posts set up at Mobil in Pacific and at Snap Fitness in Washington. Items collected at those posts are kept in the town in which they are collected.
Action Riders will host a spring fling dance Saturday, May 12, from 7 p.m. to midnight at the Pacific Eagles Hall to benefit the organization. Admission is $10 per person or $15 per couple. The event will include live music, an auction, raffles, food and a cash bar.
The following Saturday, May 19, Mobil will donate a percentage of its sales to Action Riders as part of its customer appreciation day.
A memorial ride for lost brothers and sisters will be held Sunday, May 27, at 11 a.m. at Roadhouse 100 in Gray Summit. The free ride ends at the Pacific American Legion. Any type of vehicle or motorcycle can participate in the ride.
Each year, the group will host the "9-11 Ride to Remember" to benefit the Union Food Pantry. More information on this event will be available at a later date.
For more information, people may call Gish, 314-578-6006, or Sweet, 636-744-9489, or email email@example.com.

A few years back, entrepreneur Todd Wagner was looking for philanthropic ways to spend his billions. He and Mark Cuban had just sold Broadcast.com to Yahoo and now Wagner had the Foundation for Community Empowerment on the phone, asking for a local nonprofit that was really making a difference in the area. Head to Oak Cliff, the foundation said. Find Greg Hatley. Out of his garage, Hatley taught kids how to box. But he didn't just teach boxing; he taught boys to be men. And he didn't just teach any kids. He found the worst: the truants running the streets, lucky if they had one parent to raise them, luckier still if that parent had a job. Hatley somehow could turn that kid's life around. Impressed with Hatley, Wagner built him a barn of a gym in Lancaster. Today, Li'l Chris, Brutus, any fighter at the Oak Cliff Boxing Club--they all say the same thing: Coach saved my life.
Is there no infantile icon that adults can't infuse with a brooding sense of horror? Clowns were kind of freaky to begin with, dolls will never recover from Chucky and every amusement park that Scooby Doo ever came across was abandoned and haunted. But teddy bears? How do you mess with fuzzy, cuddly teddy bears? By making a giant, 10-ton mega-teddy out of cold, immutable granite, that's how. And let's throw in some companions in attitudes of carefree play but wearing that same inscrutable, stony glare that says, "I'd crush you and everyone you love if I had the chance to fall on you." Sure, the workmanship is stunning. Sure, the surroundings are lush and green. But just try and walk past without looking over your shoulder. Hey, wasn't his arm at his side a second ago?
Grandpa ran every Saturday at the lake? Grandmother fed the ducks? Now you can recognize loved ones or honor special occasions by donating money for the Celebration Tree Grove at White Rock Lake, recently approved by the city of Dallas and the White Rock Lake Task Force. Donations to an endowment fund established by For the Love of the Lake will go to plant native trees, starting with some large trees that will give the area a special, secluded feeling. Eventually the grove will include walking paths and a courtyard with benches. For a donation of $1,000 or more, a plaque with Granddad's name will be mounted on a commemorative structure built in the style of the lake's Civilian Conservation Corps-style rock buildings and walls. Don't stop at recognizing your human relations. Your black lab loved the lake, too. For $1,000, you get the plaque and someone else's beloved companion gets more trees to sniff.
Ever since most of us on staff caved in and bought iPods, we haven't bothered with local radio stations to get our music fix, and in the past year, the corporate-owned frequencies haven't done much to change our minds. But that doesn't mean our antennae go unused. Rather, we keep the radio tuned to The Ticket on 1310 AM. And we're definitely not alone. It seems like everyone around town talks about the sports talk shows that run throughout the day, even women and non-sports fans. The biggest reason for the wide appeal has to be drive-time show The Hardline, where Mike, Greggo, Danny and Snake (yes, just "Snake") spend more time on topics like Six Feet Under, tomboys, local music and "jarring" than sports, even though their sports commentary is second to none. Still, the 7 p.m. rundown of the station's best segments from the previous day is proof that the entire Ticket schedule is getting it right, whether by delivering the most incisive sports talk in town or by playing games of "Gay, Not Gay." Once you become a P1, you won't switch your radio back to music stations, either.
The nonprofit Writer's Garret has as its stated mission the education and development of readers, writers and audiences. It stages writing workshops, panel discussions, peer critiques, contests and movie screenings. But the organization's two-year-old Writer's Studio Series, hosted by KERA at Theatre Three, takes the top prize. This year, the series brought best-selling literary stars Margaret Drabble, James Ellroy, Umberto Eco and Walter Mosley to Sunday night readings. KERA radio host Glenn Mitchell interviewed each author, who then read from one of his or her books and answered questions from the audience. Each two-hour session was taped and later played on NPR affiliates. The programs are fascinating, unpredictable and sometimes infuriating, as when politically incorrect and always controversial Ellroy told the audience that John F. Kennedy "got what he deserved." Authors scheduled this fall include Bret Easton Ellis (his new one is Lunar Park), Joan Didion (The Year of Magical Thinking) and Scott Turow. With all the lawyers who want to be writers in town, better get your ticket early for Turow, attorney and author of Presumed Innocent and other novels.
White Rock Lake offers more than bike and running paths. For years, the Bath House Cultural Center on the eastern shore of the lake has been a little powerhouse of art, theater, history and music. Built in 1930, the art deco building is tiny but boasts a 120-seat theater, two galleries, a darkroom and other spaces for activities including yoga classes, jazz concerts and dance workshops. It also houses a small but fascinating museum about the creation and history of the lake. (Did you know people could swim in White Rock until 1953? It was closed to bathers due to "drought, polio and racial tensions.") The galleries showcase regional artists, often those who live and work in the lake area.

Hi, I am thinking of establishing a new service which will then be linked with some of my apps. However I am not familiar with web programming (php and stuff) and therefore need a freelancer to help me establish that web service. The service consists of automating a process which will give you an output which then will be sent to the client on the iPhone.
Please contact me so we can discuss about the main plan.

I don't really see the big deal over "retina"... I have to really look super close and concentrate to see any kind of difference between retina and normal. Anyway, I'm wondering something about Retina and image size. Since the resolution is super high in a smallish form factor, won't everything look super small on it? Like a 960px site would look very narrow on this screen. And any image in general will look way smaller on it vs a regular screen with fatter pixels. Am I right, or don't I understand the retina technology?
No, actually the proportions and the sizes remain the same. The only difference is that non-retina images will look less aesthetic in comparison to the retina images because retina images have more detail due to the higher resolution. While the non-retina image wil look blurry the retina image will look clear and crisp.

How about push notifications of sales, comments, and referrals along with the ability to toggle each of those on and off?
That would be a great idea. I'll note it and remember to implement it in the next update!
Hi guys! I spent some time developing an Envato App which keeps track of your sales record and visualizes it. You can compare the performance of your items or spectate the overall performance. In addition to that the user gets an overview of his profile including his rating and badges he earned. He gets to know his current balance and the number of followers. He can also view his monthly statement to keep a track of his deposits and his expenditure. Once screen is dedicated to the search function allowing the user of the App to search for anything he desires on all of the envato marketplaces. He can also chose specifically which marketplace to search on. After selecting a search result the user can directly purchase the item.
The app can be fetched from the iTunes servers through the following link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/enwallet/id537311268?ls=1&mt=8
The support site is: http://www.enwalletApp.com
I thought I'd share my work with all of you marketplace users
I am planning to implement a chat client into the app which lets all the users of Enwallet communicate with each other. However this feature will most probably come out in the next update only.
I am open to any kind of feedback, hope you like it

MORGAN CITY — Detectives are investigating the wounding of two Morgan City men late Sunday near Railroad Avenue and 11th Street, an area where one of the victims was shot two weeks earlier, officials said.
Lawrence Blackburn, 36, was shot in the chest and is in stable condition at Teche Regional Medical Center, Morgan City Police Capt. James Blair said in a release.
Dwayne Clark, 36 was hit once in the hand and is in stable condition at University Hospital in New Orleans, Blair said.
Police received the call about shots fired at 10:29 p.m. Sunday, arriving to find the two men wounded.
Anyone with information can call detectives at (985) 380-4605.
The Sunday shooting is similar to one that occurred March 15, when Clark was shot and wounded in the same area. That shooting also remains under investigation.

So this means that the official name of the church was Victoria Docks
St. Mark - it was created in 1864 out of the area covered by Plaistow
St. Mary, East Ham and Woolwich (Kent). (It was a Church of England
church.) The old maps I have show the street name as Victoria Dock Road.

EDMOND – Northwestern Oklahoma State battled back from a 15-point first half deficit, forcing an overtime that eventually led to a 76-67 Ranger victory over No. 18 Oklahoma Christian on Monday night in Edmond.
Jonathan Freemyer drained a three-pointer with 20 seconds to go in regulation, forcing overtime after a missed field goal in the closing seconds by Oklahoma Christian.
Northwestern held the lead for the entire five minute overtime period, outscoring OC 16-7.
The Rangers held an early lead to begin the game, but not before the Eagles led by their largest lead of the first half, 43-28, at the break. OC extended its lead to 16 points, 52-36, with 13:23 to go, but Northwestern countered with a 24-8 run to close out the second half and force overtime.
Northwestern capitalized off of 27 OC turnovers, coming up with 18 steals and 12 points off of turnovers. The Rangers shot 34 percent (25-of-73), added seven three-pointers out of 26 attempts and hit 19-of-29 from the free throw line.
Freemyer and Orren Tims both scored 22 points to lead Northwestern, with each hitting a pair of three-pointers. Tims picked up six steals while Freemyer had eight rebounds. Marshall Bell added two three's and finished with 13 points.
Oklahoma Christian hit 50 percent from the floor, but was limited on attempts due to turnovers. The Eagles were 28-of-56 from the field and hit just four three's and converted on seven free throws. The Eagles out-rebounded NWOSU 49-33.
Northwestern (5-0, 1-0) heads to Columbia, Mo. for the Quality Inn Classic on Friday and Saturday in Columbia, Mo. The Rangers will play Hannibal-LaGrange (Mo.) on Friday at 6 p.m. and follow on Saturday with a 3 p.m. game against host Columbia College (Mo.).
MISSION STATEMENT: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides quality educational and cultural opportunities to learners with diverse needs by cultivating ethical leadership and service, critical thinking and fiscal responsibility.

A Wisconsin district attorney has warned schools in his county that if they proceed with new state sex-education courses, teachers could face criminal charges for encouraging minors to have sex, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Juneau County District Attorney Scott Southworth said a new state law that requires students learn to use condoms and other contraceptives "promotes the sexualization — and sexual assault — of our children." In his March 24 letter to five school districts, Southworth, a Republican, said teachers could be charged with contributing to the delinquency of minors. He urged school officials to suspend the program, which takes effect in the fall, and transfer the anatomy curriculum to a science course.
Here are a couple of excerpts from his letter:
"If a teacher instructs any student aged 16 or younger how to utilize contraceptives under circumstances where the teacher knows the child is engaging in sexual activity with another child -- or even where the 'natural and probable consequences' of the teacher's instruction is to cause that child to engage in sexual intercourse with a child -- that teacher can be charged under this statute" of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. ...
"Forcing our schools to instruct children on how to utilize contraceptives encourages our children to engage in sexual behavior, whether as a victim or an offender," he wrote. "It is akin to teaching children about alcohol use, then instructing them on how to make mixed alcoholic drinks."
He said in an interview with the Journal Sentinel that he could not say how likely he would be to file charges, saying it would depend on the specifics of any case.
"I'm not looking to charge any teachers," he said. "I've got enough work to do."
The paper spoke to a co-author of the legislation. She called the DA's letter "irresponsible" and said it was "laughable to think teachers could be charged for telling students how to use contraception."
"Using condoms isn't a crime for anyone," said Rep. Kelda Helen Roys, D-Madison. "This guy is not a credible legal source on this matter, I'm sorry to say. His purpose is to intimidate and create enough panic in the minds of school administrators that they'll turn their backs on young people and their families."
The new law continues to let parents remove their children from sex-ed classes, and schools can also not offer such instruction. One district that received the letter said it had not taught sex ed for years.

European regulators may hold the key to whether Qantas will face fierce new competition from Virgin Atlantic on the London-Sydney route.
Qantas shares slumped to a two-month low on Friday after Virgin Atlantic's plans to fly the London-Sydney route were given a major boost by the British and Hong Kong Governments' agreement to liberalise their air services treaty.
However, the deal is still subject to European Commission approval and, according to the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation's Peter Harbison, getting EC approval could be the hard part.
Mr Harbison said the French might vigorously oppose the deal, because the British previously disputed an agreement between France and China.
However, the news was still seen as a big victory for Sir Richard Branson, whose plans to fly the Kangaroo Route were largely dismissed as nonsense when first mooted four months ago.
Under the air services agreement, UK-based airlines will now have through-rights between Hong Kong and Australia, allowing them to fly passengers to Sydney via Hong Kong.
Previously the carriers weren't permitted to use Hong Kong as a stopover.
In return, Cathay Pacific will have the right to fly from London to the US or Canada.
Virgin Atlantic, which is 49 per cent owned by Singapore Airlines, says it plans to start daily services to Sydney in the middle of next year, using a 311-seat Airbus 340-600.
In a statement, Sir Richard said: "I am under no illusions . . . that competing on the Kangaroo Route will be easy, especially given the overwhelming advantages enjoyed by (British Airways) and Qantas through their Joint Services Agreement for services between London and Australia and the joint dominance of Qantas and its OneWorld partner, Cathay, on services between Hong Kong and Australia."
Following the breakdown of talks between Australia and Hong Kong last week, which hit a snag when the Australian Government failed to grant Cathay Pacific rights to fly from Sydney to Los Angeles, Qantas said it wanted the British Government to grant it rights to fly from Shanghai to London.
"At a time when Qantas is being denied an opportunity to compete with Virgin Atlantic over Shanghai, Virgin Atlantic has given the impression that there is little competition on the Kangaroo Route," Qantas chief executive Geoff Dixon said in a statement.
Qantas, however, played down the potential impact of Virgin Atlantic flying the Kangaroo Route, noting that 21 airlines already competed on the route.
Yet, according to some analysts, Virgin Atlantic could seriously hurt Qantas on the less competitive Australia-Hong Kong route, which is considered one of Qantas's most profitable.
After sliding 13� at one stage to $3.27, Qantas shares closed 7� lower at $3.33 on Friday.
Meanwhile, Air New Zealand said it expected to post a full-year net profit of $NZ220 million ($A195 million), up from the previous year's $NZ162 million.

Associate Director for Undergraduate Studies
School of Communication Studies
Scripps College of Communication
Dr. Miller is frequently called upon for his expertise in political communication, particularly regarding his research work on gender in politics. Miller and a former colleague researched the possibility of an African-America, Latino or female United States president. Results of the study were featured in their 2003 book, "Anticipating Madam President."
Miller says they discovered that a host of stereotypes are at play when potential voters know little about the candidates other than their sex and race. Minorities and women were perceived as being more empathetic and caring and having certain expertise with topics that are stereotypically associated with women or minorities.
Additionally, their work inspired another book, "When Stereotypes Collide: Race, Gender and Videostyle in Congressional Campaigns," in 2005. Both books garnered much interest in the years published and again during the 2008 presidential primary races, as a woman, Hillary Rodham-Clinton, and an African American, Barack Obama, were vying for the Democratic nomination.
Miller is also an expert on advertising and debate tactics.
In addition to teaching, Miller is also the director of the Political Communication Certificate Program and former co-director of the Scripps Survey Research Center at Ohio University. Miller appeared as a guest on National Public Radio's "Talk of the Nation," during the 2008 presidential election, which was broadcast live from Ohio University's public radio station, WOUB. He has also been quoted in several state and national newspapers and as a featured guest on talk radio programs.

She is a tough, fearless, and highly intelligent warrior, who is a valuable asset to the team. While at first she seems like a energetic, childish character, she is actually a smart, serious, and passionate person.Seth has hardly any memories of the previous 1,000 years. As the story progresses, Seth gains back some of her memories, like the other immortals. The things we learn include her being a former pirate (famous at that), and that she has a son, Sed, also a famous pirate. When the two reunite, Sed looks old enough to be her grandfather, but since she's immortal, she looks the same as she has for all this time.Seth wields heavy swords along with Kaim, and is the fastest and one of the strongest fighters in your party. Having been in the Uhran army, she has honed her battle skills, and can show them off impressively.


text: I was wondering how secure the windows Vista firewall is as far as inbound security. I currently have it set to block all incoming connections, however, when doing a port scan on it from inside my network, multiple ports showed as being there, although the PC itself did not show as being active (it does not respond to pings). I tried to telnet to a couple of the ports and didn't get any prompts, just a blank screen that eventually dropped me back to the command line, whereas a bad connection would tell me it can't connect. So I'm wondering why exactly they are showing up, and would someone be capable of connecting to them. I am just trying to get it nice and secure before I go hopping on any public wifi networks, because I know a few of them don't do client isolation. Thanks in advance for any help!

Originally posted on Awful Announcing | Last updated 12/6/12
There was reported a crazy rumor recently that Monday Night Football analyst and former Super Bowl winning NFL Head Coach Jon Gruden was offered the University of Tennessee job, along with a Cleveland Browns' ownership stake. All parties involved promptly disputed the report, with Gruden saying "I'm just excited about Monday Night Football. I like what I'm doing. I'm just trying to hang on to the job that I have." Of course, that doesn't mean these crazy rumors won't keep appearing. On the contrary, they will probably keep on popping up until he actually does leave and return to the NFL. And as it so happens, the latest one gaining steam on outlets like CBS and PFT has him returning to coach... the Oakland Raiders. The rumor originated from an interview Pro Football Weekly's Hub Arkush gave to WSCR Radio in Chicago. This would be his second stint as the Oakland Head Coach, as he first coached there from 1998 to 2001, before leaving for Tampa Bay where he won the Super Bowl in 2002. It seems rather absurd that he would return to once again coach the now dysfunctional Oakland franchise, especially with how in demand his services have been rumored to be the past few years. I can't see it happening, but perhaps if the money is right you never know. And once again, another Gruden coaching rumor was quickly squashed as Pro Football Talk had a statement from the Raiders PR chief being "disgusted" by Arkush spreading this Gruden rumor on the day current Raiders Coach Dennis Allen's father died: "Members of the media, there are two people on this planet that have the ability to make talks happen between Jon Gruden and the Raiders, with regard to him allegedly taking over the football operations, and/or the position of head coach. Each of those individuals, owner Mark Davis and general manager Reggie McKenzie, wanted me to communicate that this rumor has no validity whatsoever. And for the record, I'm personally disgusted that Hub Arkush would spread such an untruth on the day our head coach, Dennis Allen, had to determine with his mom, his brother and sister, whether to take his dad off life support or wait and hope that he would regain consciousness. Dennis didn't have an opportunity to say goodbye to his dad, but he did have an opportunity to take a phone call regarding Hub's story." Gruden saying he's committed to ESPN is doing nothing to quell reports of his imminent departure from ESPN at the moment. And Gruden does seem to be rather unpredictable, so it wouldn't surprise me if anything happened at this point. He's been rumored to take the job at Tennessee, now the Raiders, and probably anywhere in between. The only thing we can really be sure of is that the rumors will keep flying until he finally does leave the MNF booth. Stay tuned, it could be a wild ride.

Admiral Radley On World Cafe
courtesy of the artist
Set List
- "I Heart California"
- "The Thread"
- "Ghosts Of Syllables"
The members of Admiral Radley have known each other forever. Jason Lytle and Aaron Burtch were part of the indie-rock band Grandaddy while Aaron Espinoza and Ariana Murray were part of Earlimart. Hailing from the same town in California led the two bands to bond over similar styles of music. Talk of bridging the two bands began swirling last year and the four members decided to temporarily move away from their prior projects to focus on the collaboration.
The group released its solid, fun-spirited debut album, I Heart California, earlier this year. In this interview, Lytle reveals that the title track is light-hearted, but realistic compared to the dreamy idealization that often characterizes songs about "The Golden State."

What have your experiences been? And which would you suggest out of those two options? Please also include any reasons as that would be helpful. Thanks so much :)

Take That Plunge
In my experience, the Rack doesn't look like that, so I'm suggesting man made.
Good plunge . . . bad plunge
Good plunge . . . bad plunge
Oh my goodness, not that plunge! (Although Rita's Rack looks real.)
Take That Plunge & Shove It!
Poor Christina.
But look how amazing she is with a good plunging neckline!
Lacey Issues
Bad lace!
Good lace!
That's Not Solid
Perhaps you might consider wearing a bra?
Nope, not like that either. How about a slip?
Oh, but you still need to put the dress on over it.
Good plan, opt for a material that ISN'T SEE THROUGH!
The Gap
I love that bag, but just a couple stitches or a safety pin is all she needs.
Just Weird
And just to show our own time period isn't immune, something from the 1890s. However, so far, no one in the Parasol Protectorate Abroad series has such bad taste as to wear this dress. Trust me, the nice stuff from 1895 is already bad enough!

Um, no. VIH is HIV, just in some other language such as français. --Carlb 15:09, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
"So according to conservative ideology killing live babies is fine, but killing 3 day old embryos from women who've been raped several days prior, or from women who will die from the birth (baby and all) is wrong. The reason is conservatives strive to increase human misery; that of the mother in the slums and of the baby who can not be adequately looked after and will be as miserable as possible from the earliest age possible. Damned liberals, with their flip-flopping and godless and a blah blah blah blah!"
This seems rather passive-aggressive. I believe there was a mention about this kind of overly angry and sarcastic political trash talk in the Beginners section. --Marsh64 23:44, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
- If you look at the Atheism article, you'll find similar stuff. Some people apparently think that humor on an article involves sarcastically trashing opposing viewpoints while reverting edits that actually poke fun at the article topic. -BaronGrackle 03:12, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'd noticed that, too (delayed response). On the Atheist page, they even try to defend their motives. The first couple of paragraphs here could use an edit, if someone can think of a way to tone down the hate and turn up the funny. --Aredvark 05:35, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Biased Parenthesis
This article is supposed to be funny. Some of it is, but a lot gets marred when people begin expressing political opinions in pointless (statements of paraenthesis). I suggest we keep this as clean as possible and just enjoy humour in a difficult situation. --Aredvark 05:35, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Fixing the Controversy section.
This most certainly needs some cleaning up. The (now) first paragraph in the article could use some toning down, as well, but I didn't feel it was the point point of temporary removal from the article, since it was amusing in addition to hateful. In addition, the former first (now removed) paragraph clearly violates the basic ideas of how to write for Uncyclopedia.
I invite everyone to suggest rewrites for both sections of this article, though my main focus is the former first. Please do not return it until things have been ironed out.
Everyone's welcome to comment in the specified sections (under here, The One, and The Two) and make edits to the proposed paragraphs. I simply ask that any comments be signed. --Aredvark 02:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
The One
Here's the original paragraph:
People who believe that a) humans are created in God's image; and b) women are useless pieces of garbage who must always do what men tell them to; believe that abortion is a form of murder. Although some people argue that killing a 3-day old embryo from a woman who's been raped is not on a par with killing an actual baby, you know, those things you can hold in your arms and hug. Also they say that killing an embryo is not a par with killing a doctor or killing an intern in an abortion clinic who is just trying to make ends meet. In other words killing live thinking human beings is murder, killing human eggs isn't. If that were the case then most women commit a form of murder every month! Lonely men, on the other hand, commit millions of murders every day!
Everything in the subheading should be what we'd like to see presented. This far, I have very little. The last two sentences are funny, but I'm not sure they can be worked in without being needlessly offensive -- not to mention ignorant, since it's zygotes, embryos, fetuses, (or babies) that get aborted, not eggs. Obviously silly stupid, like monkeys laying eggs is normally amusing, but small details in cases like this sometimes aren't. <-- Shrank due to relevance.
Thanks in advance for constructive help! --Aredvark 02:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm a little concerned with the tone of this paragraph. it could probably use a little bit of a face lift, OR, to even out the sarcasm, create a third section, Nomenclature of abortion supporters. I kind of prefer option the latter. --Aredvark 02:20, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomenclature of abortion opponents
One faction within the JCers takes more extreme measures. Some people have pointed out that when people who follow Islam blow up buildings due to their religious convictions they are labeled as "terrorists"; however this slim percentage who blow up abortion clinics in western countries are labeled "pro-life radicalists". There has been many attempts at finding good, politically correct and consistent terminology, such as "faith-based paramilitary service providers" or just plain "theocratic fascists". However, all of these proposals failed to be approved by a 55% majority of the house of sexual congress, also known as the pantheon of Hollywood celebrities. Democrats thought it was too offensive to call these people "ethically challenged"; this wasn't PC enough for them.
Few people in the JC movement support the faction, and fewer still know where such suuporters come from. One theory is that they spawned from a previous radical movement, where members took the oppsition to the point that they murdered pregnant women, stole their fetuses, and grew them in laboratories to make a race of super-human pachyderm chimeras. Investigations thus far have remained inconclusive.
Nomenclature of abortion supporters
Another proposed idea.
Needs a few more pictures
I noticed that this article needed a few more pictures, but I forgot to check with the discussion panel first. Was it ok that I added this picture? Lord Gneo 07:38, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Picture yes, caption no. You could make it relative to one section of the post, where you plan to place the picture. For example, if you want it in the Why Abortion is Good (or similar wording) section, you could caption it something like "Another positive outcome of abortion" or something like that.
- Or put it in the pro-choice section, and refer to it as some kind of pro-choice logo or (for lack of a better word ATM) propaganda. Just make it relevant and as nonhateful as possible. ;) (ALSO: I know that's supposed to be the umbilical chord, but the cross just looks like one crazy ass penis.) --Aredvark 15:38, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
- Addendum -- Ok, so, I totally read the caption wrong the first time. It's find. Just make sure you find a relevant section for the picture -- I think the positive aspects section is the best. Srry! --Aredvark 15:41, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Hey, no problem! I put it in the religion section, because that made the most sense. And I see where you are comming from, with it looking like a crazy penis. But...it's not. Lord Gneo 07:15, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

In my application, I was trying to fetch tweets by sending an Ajax request to Twitter server. Once the tweets are available, I wanted all my observers to be notified with the recent tweets. Here, my Subject is 'Twitter' which is responsible for fetching the tweets and notifying all its observers whenever the data is available. Also, it is responsible for maintaining a list of observers who are interested in receiving notifications. The way I modeled this application is to define a generic class 'Subject' and a class 'Twitter' which would extend the Subject class.
Here the Subject class defines an array 'observerList' and two methods 'addObserver' and 'notifyObserver'. The addObserver method would add the observer object to the array and notifyObserver would iterate through the list of observers and send notifications whenever there is a new message. Now the Twitter class can extend the Subject class:
The constructor of Twitter class would call the parent constructor and then add the observer object (by invoking addObserver) to the list. Now it's ready to fetch the tweets for the provided handlerName. The init function then sends an Ajax request to fetch the tweets and once the data is received it would call the notifyObserver function. Note that the notifyObserver function is defined in the Subject class. The implementation of the Observer is pretty simple:
The Observer needs to provide the function (or the handler) that should be called when the Subject has a new message. In this case the updateFn would log the messages that it receives from the Subject.

Diakon names Hershey man COO/CFO
Diakon Lutheran Social Ministries has appointed Scott Habecker to a new combined role of chief operating and financial officer.
Habecker, a CPA who lives in the Hershey area, joined Diakon in 2009 as senior vice president for planning and business development and has been its chief operating officer since 2012.
Mark Pile, Diakon president and CEO, said in a news release that the move was because of "the desire to streamline and integrate key efforts around operational excellence, clinical quality and performance, and financial strength."
Diakon also is transitioning Richard Barger, who also is a CPA and resident of the Hershey area, to the new role of treasurer. He will focus on relationships with banks and bond-related credit ratings agencies, investment strategies in cooperation with Diakon boards of directors and development of potential funding relationships.
Habecker and Barger's positions are on the executive vice president level.
Dating to 1868, Diakon operates a dozen senior living and housing communities and offers a range of programs for children and families, including adoption, foster care, at-risk youth services and counseling. The organization, which is based in Allentown, also manages Pennsylvania's Statewide Adoption & Permanency Network.

Mar 9, 2012 - By Bruce Tippets, Sports EditorNote: Lander lost its final game at the state tournament Friday morning 47-38 to Powell in the fifth pace consolation game. Look for details in Sunday's Ranger.
Lander Valley High School avoided a quick exit from the Class 3-A state boys basketball tournament on Thursday, beating Buffalo 60-46 in a consolation game at the Casper Events Center.
LVHS was knocked into the bracket after losing to Wheatland 43-33 in the opening round Wednesday.
Star Valley and Torrington advanced to the title game on Thursday with semifinals victories.
LVHS finished the win over the Bison shooting 63 percent from the field after the Tigers had a 28 percent percentage vs. the Bulldogs.
"We shot the ball a lot better against Buffalo than we did against Wheatland," LVHS coach Terry Hopkin said.
"If we would have shot like that on Wednesday, we would be playing in a different game. I thought that the kids responded really well."
The Braves beat Wheatland 46-36, and Torrington downed Lyman 57-42.
The championship game is at 3 Saturday at the Events Center.
The Tigers faced Powell Friday in the consolation championship. LVHS was 2-1 against the Panthers prior to Friday's game.
LVHS 60, Buffalo 46
A man-to-man defense put on by the Tigers kept Buffalo struggling in the first three quarters. LVHS built a 46-30 lead.
"The kids did a good job of playing defense for the first three quarters," Hopkin said.
"We kind of gave up some scoring at the end of the game."
Buffalo cut the lead to four points in the second half, but the Tigers held on.
LVHS was 16-31 from the free-throw line.
"We stepped up and hit free throws and converted some layups," Hopkin said.
LVHS landed three players in double figures.
Zach Sanders and Austin Roberts had 13 points apiece, and Lucas Watkins added 12 points.
'It was nice to see that everyone scored that played and to see three players in double figures," Hopkin said.

Bail Bond Laws
Call Us At 1-877-990-2245 Today!
This is the California Bail Bonds state statute laws, including Los Angeles,
Riverside County, Orange County, San Bernardino County and San Diego
1. Applicable State Statutes.
1) Under IC 1800.6, cities and counties are free to enact further regulations
not in conflict with the IC sections cited above in A.
2. Licensing Requirements for Agents.
3. Notice of Forfeiture [PC 1305-1308].
Upon the court's declaration of a forfeiture [PC 1305(a)(1)-(5)],
4. Allotted Time Between Forfeiture Declaration and Payment Due Date.
When the bond is forfeited and the period of time in PC 1305 has elapsed,
the court in question enters a summary judgement [PC 1306(a)] and the district
attorney or county counsel must demand immediate payment within 30 days
after the summary judgement becomes final [PC 1306(e)(1)]. The clerk of
the court must serve notice of the entry of judgment within five days of
the date of the judgment [PC 1308(b)].
5. Forfeiture Defenses.
The California Penal Code establishes a number of conditions under which
the forfeiture is set aside:
6. Remission.
California has no remission period.
7. Bail Agent's Arrest Authority.
California Penal code allows the agent to arrest the principal himself or empower another to do so. [PC 1301].
8. Other Noteworthy Provisions.
A bail agent's license may also be held by a corporation [IC 1810(b)].
9. Noteworthy State Appellate Decisions.
After defendant failed to appear at his probation and sentencing hearing, the trial court continued the matter and ultimately ordered bail forfeited. Summary judgment was entered in favor of the People. The trial court denied the bail bond company's motion to vacate the summary judgment and to exonerate the bond. (Superior Court of Orange County, No. C-63343, Myron S. Brown, Judge.)
The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's order denying the motion
to vacate the summary judgment and exonerate the bond. The court held
that where, as in this case, there is no indication on the record that either
the defendant or defense counsel presented any information to the court
which could be said to constitute a sufficient basis to entertain a reasonable
belief that the defendant's nonappearance may have been with sufficient
excuse. Thus, it held that the failure of the trial court to declare
forfeiture of defendant's bail bond on the first day he neglected to appear
for his probation and sentencing hearing deprived it of jurisdiction to
later forfeit the bond, since there was nothing in the record to show that
the trial court had any reason to believe sufficient cause existed for his
failure to appear. (Opinion by Scoville, P.J. with Wallin and Sonenshine,
JJ., concurring.)
If upon the non-appearance of a defendant, the trial court continues a case without forfeiting bail, and the surety later brings a motion for relief from a subsequently entered forfeiture, the court may not consider evidence not part of the record from the first hearing to determine whether there was a rational basis for a sufficient excuse.
In criminal prosecution, the Superior Court, Santa Clara County, No. 191155,
Leonard B. Sprinkles, J., declared bail forfeited after defendant's second
failure to appear for sentencing. Surety's motion to vacate forfeiture
and exonerate bail was denied, and surety appealed. The Court of Appeal,
Mihara, J., held that: (1) trial court lacked jurisdiction to forfeit bail
bond upon defendant's second failure to appear, in absence of showing on
the record that court found sufficient excuse at time of first nonappearance
for defendant's absence; and (2) declaration submitted by district court
in opposing motion to vacate forfeiture, detailing an alleged in camera
discussion with judge at time of defendant's first nonappearance that allegedly
explained his absence, did not change result. Reversed.
The Court of Appeal affirmed. The court held that §Pen. Code, 1305, subd. (g), applies to defendants in foreign countries, but that it not triggered when extradition is not feasible. The term "elect" implies a choice of options, and the implication is that the prosecutor will have the option whether or not to seek extradition. Accordingly, the court held that the prosecution, having given evidence of Mexico's demonstrated reluctance to extradite its own nationals for nonheinous offenses, was not required to make a formal request for defendant's extradition from the Mexican government, and the trial court properly found that extradition was infeasible. (Opinion by Sonenshine, Acting P.J., with Rylaarsdam and Bedsworth, JJ., concurring.)
IV. When Is A Bailee Required to Appear in Court?
In a felony criminal prosecution, the trial court properly granted defendant's surety's motion to vacate the bail forfeiture ordered when defendant failed to appear at a hearing on a defense motion to continue the trial. The trial court lost jurisdiction when it failed to forfeit the bail bond two days earlier on the occasion of defendant's failure to appear at the master trial calendar hearing and so it was without jurisdiction to order the forfeiture two days later. Pen. Code, 1305, requires a defendant's presence at "trial," which includes the date set for the appearance in the master trial calendar department. If the court fails to declare forfeiture at that time, it loses jurisdiction and the bond is exonerated by operation of law. Even though defendant had executed a Pen. Code, 977, waiver, which allows a felony defendant to be absent on specific occasions, Pen. Code, 1305, which governs forfeiture procedure, was the more specific statute and thus it took precedence. When there is a conflict between a general and a special law, the special law must control.
[See 4 Witkin & Epstein, Cal. Criminal Law (2d ed. 1989) 2023 et seq.]
(2) Bail and Recognizance §9 -- Forfeiture of Bond or Deposit. The
forfeiture or exoneration of bail is entirely a statutory procedure, and
forfeiture proceedings are governed entirely by the special statutes applicable
thereto (Pen. Code, 1305-1309). Because the law abhors forfeitures, these
statutes are to be strictly construed in favor of the surety.
Surety filed motion to vacate forfeiture of, reinstate and exonerate bail
bond. The Superior Court, Sonoma County, No. 16737, R. Bryan Jamar, J.,
granted summary judgment on forfeiture, and denied surety's motion
to set aside summary judgment and exonerate bail. Surety Appealed. The Court
of Appeal, Merrill, J., held that: (1) trial court was without jurisdiction
to do anything other than enter summary judgment of forfeiture following
expiration of 180-days period for seeking relief from forfeiture, absent
tolling of 180-days period, and (2) trial court's failure to enter
summary judgment forfeiting bail within 90 days after lapse of 180-day period
for seeking relief from forfeiture meant that its jurisdiction to enter
summary judgment had expired and bail was exonerated. Reversed.
After receiving notice of summary judgment of forfeiture, surety on bail bond moved to discharge forfeiture, set aside judgment, and exonerate bail, based on procedural irregularities in giving of notice. The Superior Court, Santa Clara County, No. 172001, John A. Flaherty, J., denied motion. Surety appealed The Court of Appeal, Wunderlich, J., held that: (1) notice of original forfeiture forwarded to surety by defunct general agent to whom it was mailed achieved statutory goal of actual notice; (2) order, naming wrong surety, that surety reassume its obligations under reinstated bond was ineffective; and (3) even if reassumption had been effective, notice to address known to be incorrect was ineffective. Reversed.
VII. Deportation
Surety which had posted bail for defendant who was arrested on drug charges, and who was unable to appear for preliminary hearing due to his deportation by Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), moved to vacate forfeiture and exonerate bail. The Superior Court, Ventura County, Nos. CR44361, 187541, John J. Hunter, J., denied motion. Surety appealed. The Court of Appeal, Yegan, J., held that defendant's deportation rendered him unable to appear due to "detention" by civil authorities, and thus operated under statute to exonerate bail. Reversed.
10. Bounty Hunter Provisions.
In September 1999, California enacted a law (A 243) regulating bounty hunters,
termed "bail fugitive recovery persons" in the statute. This law
added section 1299 to the California Penal Code. The bail fugitive recovery
person is defined as one who has "written authorization" by a
bail agent, surety, etc., (under PC 1300 and 1301) and is contracted to
investigate, surveil, locate, and arrest a bail fugitive for surrender to
appropriate authorities, or any person employed to assist in the arrest
of such a fugitive.
1. Conflict with fundamental human rights
Refuse bail simply because an accused "has been charged with a certain category of crime conflicts with human rights". The minister of justice proposed that for certain very serious crimes, it should be made very difficult, if not impossible, for the accused to get bail. I believe this should apply to crimes like first degree murder, aggravated sexual assaults and robbery, serious drug offences, and use of firearm during an offence. This can be done while retaining some discretion for the courts to prevent abuse. The amendment to the law should not entail an absolute denial of bail.
2. Possible abuse for political reasons. It's wrong to suggest that an amended bail law can be misused to keep political opponents in gaol. The courts should still have some discretion, and it is very likely that they will use it to prevent abuse by the government. In any event, it is extremely unlikely that offences such as treason, sedition or political violence will be included in the new law as he suggests.
But more fundamentally, changing the bail law does not affect the fundamental principle of habeas corpus. Anyone can still challenge the validity of the arrest itself and the court can order their release if the government did not have good reason for their arrest.
3.The problems in the justice system. More substantially Schönteich argues that bail is given incorrectly "because of a poorly paid, poorly trained, and over-extended prosecution and police service". He suggests the real answer is "an overhaul of the criminal justice system and prioritising resources" rather than changing the law.
I agree with much of this analysis, except perhaps to add that the new rights dispensation has added to the workload because cases now have to be investigated and prosecuted properly - extensive reliance on coerced confessions and guilty pleas is no longer possible.
There are just too few prosecutors and detectives to deal with longer and more complicated cases, and they often do not have the necessary experience and training.
The government is indeed busy with an urgent "overhaul" of the
system to tackle all these problems (and more):
But these problems cannot be solved overnight. They require huge amounts of money at a time of tough budget constraints. Anyway, to train good prosecutors and detectives, and to implement computer based systems take time.
The real, and difficult, question is whether the government must act to
solve the problems with bail - it cannot wait until the overhaul of the
system bears fruit.
The courts are independent and the government should not tell them how to interpret the law. But it is legitimate for Parliament to write the law in a way that makes our intention clear - namely that for very serious offences it must be very difficult to get bail.
We believe very strongly that we must get the balance between human rights and the need to fight crime correct - if we fail to do so, there is a real possibility that our hard-won rights will be swept away in a wave of anticrime hysteria.

Giant cedar falls, narrowly misses two houses
December 27, 2012
11:11 a.m. — A caller near the intersection of Highway 20 and Scotts Flat Road reported a tree fell across the road, knocking down phone lines.
11:37 a.m. — A caller near the intersection of Indian Springs and McCourtney roads reported a large branch blocking the roadway.
1:11 p.m. — A caller on the 15100 block of Dog Bar Road advised that a culvert beneath the roadway had plugged and flooded that road.
2:22 p.m. — A caller near the intersection of Newtown and Empress roads, near Bitney Springs, reported a tree blocking the roadway.
4:02 p.m. — A member of Lake Wildwood security reported a tree blocking the roadway on the 14800 block of Woodland Loop.
— Nevada County Sheriff's Department dispatch log
Haley Johnson heard such a clatter, felt her house shake and then nearly shatter, but she was sure it wasn't Old Saint Nic.
"It felt like an earthquake," The nine-year-old Johnson said. "It was loud. It sounded like the ground cracked."
Johnson was home with her sister, step-brother and her mother's boyfriend Sunday morning as around four inches of rain dropped, loosening trees' roots' grip on saturated soil. When wind gusts of more than 50 miles per hour came, trees toppled.
A more than 100-year-old and more than 100-foot-tall cedar narrowly missed Johnson's bedroom when it crashed to the ground shortly after 10 a.m. Sunday on the 13000 block of Winding Way, outside Nevada City.
"It's like God had his hand on that tree and placed it exactly where it was supposed to go. Nobody should have walked away from that."
— Sarah Johnson
While the towering cedar missed Johnson's house, it flattened her family's carport, as well as the neighbors' shed, missing their kitchen by a mere foot.
"We heard a boom and the whole house shook. I thought it was lighting and thunder," said Angel Bojorquez. "I tried to open the door, but the tree had blocked the door while wiping out our back patio area. A foot to the left and my kitchen would have been completely gone."
Johnson and her siblings rushed to their door to see what happened, but the tree had knocked power lines still buzzing with current a mere yard from that entrance, said mother Sarah Johnson, who was at the grocery store when the tree plunged.
Another set of lines fell on the opposite side of the house, blocking the other door. These lines caught fire, which briefly spread to the smashed carport, said Haley Johnson.
This fire was stamped out by the heavy rains by the time the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CalFire) arrived on scene shortly after the incident was phoned in.
Responding personnel safety escorted the children and adults to and from the home amid fallen trees and power lines.
No one was hurt and no major structural damage was reported, beyond the side-structure laundry room of the Johnson's home that was toppled by the uprooted base of the cedar, Sarah Johnson said.
"It's like God had his hand on that tree and placed it exactly where it was supposed to go," Johnson said. "Nobody should have walked away from that. It should have landed on our neighbors' house. It should have landed on our home."
Other tragedies were averted. A dog belonging to the Johnsons is usually kept outside but was inside during the tree fall. Had it been outside, the mother said her children would have likely ran through the downed cables to ensure the dog's safety.
Additionally, the mother's car is usually parked in the carport, but because she was not home at that time, their car remains unscathed.
Perhaps most miraculous is that Sarah Johnson herself was not home. At eight months pregnant, she said if she'd been there, the shock of the tree fall might have induced labor.
"With all the horrible things that are happening, I am just glad I get to hug my kids," she said.
The storm that rolled through Nevada County Monday dropped between three and five inches of precipitation on western Nevada County, toppling trees and flooding culverts and roadways.
"We had our fair share of trees down due to saturated soil and high winds," said CalFire's Brian York.
As of Monday afternoon, more than 100 people in Grass Valley were still without power from an outage that began shortly before 11 a.m. Sunday, according to Pacific Gas and Electric spokesman J.D. Guidi.
"This is the only outage in the whole Sierra Division," Guidi said.
Those residents were expected to have power back by 7:30 p.m. Monday, Guidi said.
The weekend gave PG&E plenty of work to attend to, Guidi said, with crews from Stockton and Fresno mobilized to areas north of Chico and the Sierra Nevada, which were most impacted by the Northern California storm. The utility also contracted private workers to handle repairs.
While Monday provided a sunny reprieve to the weekend storm, National Weather Service Forecaster Karl Swanberg predicted showers would return in the afternoon Christmas Day Tuesday and drop another inch to an inch and a half of rain in Grass Valley.
"It might start out dry, but rain is likely in the afternoon," Swanberg said.
Winds are not expected to return as fiercely with gusts topping out at around 15 mph, Swanberg said. Temperatures are expected to peak in the 40s with lows in the 30s.
Those showers are expected to last into Wednesday with rain shifting to snow between 3,000 and 4,000 feet, Swanberg said.

1. Re: Migrate Application console from 10g to 11g and from 32bits to 64 bitsTridus Sep 27, 2012 6:43 PM (in response to 964849)Sounds like the application is running in 32 bit mode, and so it can't use the 64 bit Oracle client. If you put a 32 bit Oracle client on the machine it might start working. Alternately, recompile the application for AnyCPU. You might run into issues referencing Oracle 10 while using 11 though, I found some code didn't like that situation (fixed by changing the reference to the Oracle 11 client and recompiling).
You should always have Copy Local off Oracle.DataAccess.dll unless you have a reason not to. This case isn't a reason, as without the appropriate Oracle client installed on the computer the DLL doesn't work anyway.
Another alternative solution is to wait until the new managed client comes out (soon apparently) and use that. That's just a DLL included in the project (with Copy Local on) and no Oracle client install required. It should work perfectly in this situation.
