Seoul (AFP) Feb 14, 2013
Urgent efforts to find out the type of device detonated in North Korea's latest nuclear test appeared to be getting nowhere Thursday, with South Korean experts unable to detect any radioactive fallout.
The North's test on Tuesday triggered an immediate scramble to collect and analyse any fallout data that might provide crucial clues about the nature of the test and the progress Pyongyang's nuclear weapons programme has made.
While seismic data was able to shed light on the likely yield of the underground test -- estimated at 6-7 kilotons -- the main hunt was for elusive radioisotopes that might confirm the type of fissile material that was used.
Experts are particularly keen to establish whether the North switched from plutonium -- used in the 2006 and 2009 tests -- to a new and self-sustaining nuclear weaponisation programme using highly enriched uranium.
The South's state-run Nuclear Safety and Security Commission said Thursday it had analysed eight atmospheric samples apparently collected by warships and air force planes equipped with highly sensitive detection devices.
"No radioactive isotope has been found yet," the commission said in a statement.
Their priority target was traces of xenon gases released in the detonation that would point to the weapon type. "We are analysing samples and xenon has not been found," the commission statement said.
If the underground test was well contained, it is quite possible there would be little or no radioactive seepage into the atmosphere.
A Seoul government source quoted by Yonhap news agency suggested that was the case, saying the entrance to the tunnel where the test was conducted remains intact.
And even if some gases did escape, scientists stress there is a large amount of luck involved in collecting them. No xenon gases were detected after the North's 2009 test.
As well as the military detectors, the commission said there were 122 automated devices across South Korea that were continually capturing and analysing air samples.
The detection effort is running on a very tight deadline. Xenon-133m, a metastable isotope needed to pin down the fissile material type, has a half-life of just over two days.
Proof of a uranium test would confirm what has long been suspected: that the North can produce weapons-grade uranium, doubling its pathways to building more bombs in the future.
The North has substantial deposits of uranium ore and it is much easier secretly to enrich uranium in centrifuges rather than enriching plutonium in a nuclear reactor.
In an apparent effort to showcase its own military muscle on Thursday, South Korea's Defence Ministry provided a video demonstration of a newly deployed cruise missile capable of striking precision targets in the North.
"With this missile, we could hit any facility, equipment or individual target in the North anywhere, at any time of our choosing," Major General Ryu Young-Jeo told a special press briefing.
Defence Ministry spokesman Kim Min-Seok said the missile was accurate enough to target "the office window of the North's command headquarters".
It has "deadly destructive power" that could "restrain the enemy headquarters' activities" during wartime, Kim told reporters.
The day after the nuclear test, South Korea said it would speed up the development of longer-range ballistic missiles that could also cover the whole of North Korea.
Last October South Korea reached a deal with the United States to almost triple the range of its ballistic missile systems -- with Seoul arguing it needed an upgrade to counter the North's own missile development.
The United States has 28,500 troops in South Korea and guarantees a nuclear "umbrella" in case of any atomic attack. In return, Seoul accepts limits on its ballistic missile capabilities.

It goes without saying that Oedipus Rex (and Hamlet as well) CANNOT be

- What needs to be done to address the threat of viral hemorrhagic fevers?
What carries viruses that cause viral hemorrhagic fevers?
Viruses associated with most VHFs are zoonotic. This means that these viruses naturally reside in an animal reservoir host or arthropod vector. They are totally dependent on their hosts for replication and overall survival. For the most part, rodents and arthropods are the main reservoirs for viruses causing VHFs. The multimammate rat, cotton rat, deer mouse, house mouse, and other field rodents are examples of reservoir hosts. Arthropod ticks and mosquitoes serve as vectors for some of the illnesses. However, the hosts of some viruses remain unknown -- Ebola and Marburg viruses are well-known examples.
Where are cases of viral hemorrhagic fever found?
Taken together, the viruses that cause VHFs are distributed over much of the globe. However, because each virus is associated with one or more particular host species, the virus and the disease it causes are usually seen only where the host species live(s). Some hosts, such as the rodent species carrying several of the New World arenaviruses, live in geographically restricted areas. Therefore, the risk of getting VHFs caused by these viruses is restricted to those areas. Other hosts range over continents, such as the rodents that carry viruses which cause various forms of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in North and South America, or the different set of rodents that carry viruses which cause hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Europe and Asia. A few hosts are distributed nearly worldwide, such as the common rat. It can carry Seoul virus, a cause of HFRS; therefore, humans can get HFRS anywhere where the common rat is found.
While people usually become infected only in areas where the host lives, occasionally people become infected by a host that has been exported from its native habitat. For example, the first outbreaks of Marburg hemorrhagic fever, in Marburg and Frankfurt, Germany, and in Yugoslavia, occurred when laboratory workers handled imported monkeys infected with Marburg virus. Occasionally, a person becomes infected in an area where the virus occurs naturally and then travels elsewhere. If the virus is a type that can be transmitted further by person-to-person contact, the traveler could infect other people. For instance, in 1996, a medical professional treating patients with Ebola hemorrhagic fever (Ebola HF) in Gabon unknowingly became infected. When he later traveled to South Africa and was treated for Ebola HF in a hospital, the virus was transmitted to a nurse. She became ill and died. Because more and more people travel each year, outbreaks of these diseases are becoming an increasing threat in places where they rarely, if ever, have been seen before.

When everything came together - three weeks off, the right vaccinations, helpful relatives the Reisers jumped at the chance to take the trip of a lifetime, and they went on safari to South Africa.
Tim and Linda Reiser, their son, Dan, and daughter, Andrea, started their trip in Johannesburg with a big rugby party weekend. "It's like football here," said Linda Reiser. "They have huge parties. People wear jerseys and root for their team, the Springboks. They drink a concoction called the Springbok." Served in a shot glass or large spoon, it is Amarula and creme de menthe liquors. Amarula is similar to Bailey's Irish Cream.
Then, on to Cape Town and some shopping. Linda Reiser was particularly enamored by the textiles, and she brought many of them back. One of the more breathtaking sights of the trip was Table Mountain. Cable cars take visitors up 2,500 feet. "We were fortunate in that we saw the top - it was clear enough one day," Linda Reiser said. For much of the time the top of the mountain is shrouded in a thick cloak of fog nicknamed "the tablecloth."
The family went there at the end of June. "It was winter there when we were there. Highs during the day were about 75 degrees, and it got down to 35 at night," explained Tim Reiser.
The Reisers enjoyed the sights of Johannesburg as well as Cape Town and then flew from Cape Town to the Singita Game Reserve near the Sabi Sand Reserve and Kruger National Park.
The Singita is world-renowned for its cuisine and amenities. Guests are treated to three large meals a day - even if they are out in the bush. "We finally had to tell them to cut it down to two meals because we couldn't eat that much," Linda Reiser said. However, they continued to make three meals because Singita staff members cook for their families when they are cooking for guests.
The housing areas have their own built-in pools. "Because it was winter there, there were no flowers but there were also no bugs, and we didn't have to worry about taking malaria pills," explained Linda Reiser.
"You could hear the hyenas at night," Tim Reiser said. "If you need to walk around the compound at night, you have to be escorted by staff because the animals can and sometimes do come right up to the lodges where guests are."
Each morning and evening, when the wildlife is out and about, trackers would take the Reiser family out in jeeps.
"I was so amazed at the cheetah," said Linda Reiser. "They are huge, and we saw some wild dogs, which you don't get to see much there anymore." At night, the couple recounted, trackers would shine small lights back and forth in front of the jeeps to see catch the glint of games' eyes, and then the jeeps would stop and everyone would peer into the darkness until their eyes adjusted to see the wildlife.
Trackers could leave the jeeps but guests cannot, and when elephants come near the jeeps, guests are told to sit perfectly still.
"I guess the elephants aren't bothered by the jeeps, and when you are sitting still in them, they look at you like a jeep. If you start to fidget, they might pluck you right out."
The wild game was amazing, Tim Reiser said. By the end of the stay at the Singita, they saw water buffalo, hippos, elephants, leopards, impalas, baboons and lion cubs.
Linda Reiser said she was surprised to learn that the lionesses keep their litters together, and if they go off and leave their young while they are hunting, the litters will stay together and wait for their mothers.
During the day, the family entertained themselves with archery, tennis, swimming or just sitting on the decks of their lodges enjoying the experience.
Tim Reiser said he enjoyed the elephants, and the babies playing with the adults were remarkable.
One dining experience, the boma dinner, was unforgettable, Linda Reiser said. An area of the Singita is cordoned off with a bamboo fence and set up like a British officer's mess area - china, silver flatware, white tablecloths, tiki torches, candlelight and dancing.
"The bush is just breathtaking," Linda Reiser said. "The air is like velvet on your skin, and it's so quiet and beautiful."
When the family left Singita, they flew over Mozambique and down the Indian Ocean coast to Durban. They went sight-seeing at Boulders Beach, home of a colony of African penguins. Nicknamed jackass penguins because of a raucous noise they make - they object to be petted, but otherwise you can get quite close to them, Linda Reiser said.
From Durban it was back to Johannesburg and then home.
Linda Reiser said the trip changed the family's eating habits. "We are eating healthier and using more spices. I had to go out and buy some when we returned."
Their advice: If you have the chance to go - go. Some areas were off-limits to tourists because of unrest, and security was high in some areas, but if using guides, you don't have problems.
Make sure to get all the necessary vaccinations, and planning for a trip like this - to take in the sights and make travel arrangements - takes about a year. Linda Reiser suggests the trip would not work well with preteens.
"They say children should be at least 13 to go on the safari trips," said Tim Reiser. "You have to have the patience to sit in a jeep."
Remember, you can only take two bags weighing 50 pounds so if you plan on bringing a lot of items back, pack lightly and get a really, really good camera.
"It's not an experience we will ever forget, and the pictures hold so many memories," Linda Reiser said.

The history and name of The Eel's Foot Inn dates back as far as 1533. Recorded in the parish records as an Ale House situated somewhere near the present location. The current Eel's Foot Inn building dates back to 1642, when it was originally two cottages. The third cottage was added on in approximately 1725 (which is now the darts room). You may notice the wonderful looking dressers in this room, and these are original (c1725) and were made by an Essex carpenter hence the fancy columns and arches, Suffolk dressers go straight across at the top.
As far as records show the middle cottage became the village pub in the late 17th century. This was formally the cobbler's cottage.
We cannot be sure how the pub got its name. It may have come from Heel's Foot, a cobblers implement, or more likely named after the Eel's Boot, a type of woven reed basket used in Eel Fishing. A more fanciful explanation is that it is a derivation of Neale's Boot, named after a medieval priest who trapped the Devil in his boot and tossed him into the river. The Devil escaped disguised as an eel! The Eel's Foot, because of its close proximity to the sea was a favourite stop off point for travellers, drovers and smugglers.
If you walk to the bridge over the new cut and look eastwards towards the coast, you will see an arched bridge. This was known as Tu' Penny bridge as you had to pay to cross it - an original toll bridge.
In the 18th century the pub played host to parties of Dragoons in need of rest and refreshment. It was also a favourite resting place for smugglers. In 1747 the two sides surprised one another at the Eels Foot and shots were fired. Two of the Smugglers were captured and sent to the Old Bailey for trial and sentenced to death.
The Eel's Foot Inn has a long history of being associated with local folk music. According to records, music has been played here for over 200 years. To this day, folk gather every Thursday evening with various instruments. Musicians are always welcome and many happy evenings are spent when a passing musician pops in and entertains for an hour or two!

Quick GuideCuts and Scrapes: Caring for Wounds in Pictures
How are puncture wounds different?
A puncture wound is caused by an object piercing the skin, creating a small hole. Some punctures can be very deep, depending on the source and cause.
Puncture wounds do not usually bleed much, but treatment is necessary to prevent infection. A puncture wound can cause infection because it forces bacteria and debris deep into the tissue, and the wound closes quickly forming an ideal place for bacteria to grow.
For example, if a nail penetrates deep into the foot, it can hit a bone and introduce bacteria into the bone. This risk is especially great if an object has gone through a pair of sneakers or tennis shoes. The foam in sneakers can harbor bacteria that can lead to serious infection in the tissues.
First aid for puncture wounds includes cleaning the area thoroughly with soap and water. These wounds are very difficult to clean out. If the area is swollen, ice can be applied and the area punctured should be elevated. Apply antibiotic ointments (Bacitracin, Polysporin, Neosporin) to prevent infection. Cover the wound with a bandage to keep out harmful bacteria and dirt. Cleanse the puncture wound and change the bandage three times a day, and monitor for signs of infection (the same signs as in the cuts section). Change the bandage any time it becomes wet or dirty.
People with suppressed immune systems or any particularly deep puncture wounds should be seen by a doctor. If it is difficult to remove the puncturing object, it may have penetrated the bone and requires medical care.
Most puncture wounds do not become infected, but if redness, swelling or bleeding persists, see your doctor.
Puncture wounds to the feet are a particular concern. Wear shoes to minimize the risk of a puncture wound from a nail or glass, especially if the affected person has diabetes or loss of sensation in the feet for any reason.
Additional common causes of puncture wounds can include animal or human bites, or splinters from wood or other plant material, which carry a high risk of infection and should be treated by a physician.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Why does there have to be a "merge" ? Can't they just stop/discontinue a line ?consider this:
IF Nikon would have merged the D7000 line and the D300 line they wouldn't have named it a D7100 right? They would have called it something like D8000 to clearly distinguish it from a D7000 and from a D300. The 7100 is clearly just an iteration.
Just my 2 cents.
That really is something of an understatementD400 is really late .
Rather elitest of you, don't you think? And for what its worth, most wildlife shooters that used to shoot with a D300 were quite happy with the improvements with the D7000. Most notably the ISO performance simply left the D300 in the dust. Sure, the buffer sucks and its a bit smaller, doesn't have weather sealing, but plain and simple its a way better camera. Results speak for themselves. Just because you're in love with pro body features doesn't mean you have an inherently greater sense of value and understanding regarding photography. Its what you do with it that counts.
Most that are saying this, either A) don't want to spend $2,100 for a camera, Have never experienced pro systems or, C) Simply can't grasp anything more advanced than a 7x00 body.
Those of use to maximize systems, dream of the things that could really be useful and found the D7000 not a D300 upgrade by almost all measurements, and lacking features that are used.
Is it really late if the 7d mkII isn't here yet?D400 is really late .
That really is something of an understatement
Well, if I wanted to be more accurate I would have said that most wildlife shooters than I know don't shoot with DX cameras at all. "Extra reach" is meaningless if you have to squint into a dinky viewfinder to see it. Patience, getting up early, good light and hiding yourself well somewhere that you've already seen wildlife is the secret to good wild life photography. People used to do it with film and old manual focus lenses, so barking about "challenges" in todays age seems somewhat silly. ISO 800 and up is just awful on the D300 and far more situations were rendered un-shootable with that camera than any other I've owned. The difference between it and the D7000 is substantial in that regard and the jump in FX is an even larger gap. To me, right place right time with an FX camera wins every time.Sorry, but I disagree with the statement about "most wildlife shooters" being satisfied with the D7000. Most of the wildlife shooters I know still use and prefer their D300, needing a camera with better autofocus and a good buffer. Better IQ is meaningless if the shot is out of focus or you can't take it at all due to a full buffer. Wildlife photography is challenging because you have no control over anything except your camera. Being able to change settings "on the fly" becomes highly important and that's where the pro controls of the D300 shine. On the D7000 the card slot cover comes open too easily and the exposure mode turret gets bumped and changes while moving through vegetation. There are many reasons why the D7000 is NOT the choice of any of the wildlife photographers I know.
Elitist? No - practical, yes.Rather elitest of you, don't you think? And for what its worth, most wildlife shooters that used to shoot with a D300 were quite happy with the improvements with the D7000. Most notably the ISO performance simply left the D300 in the dust. Sure, the buffer sucks and its a bit smaller, doesn't have weather sealing, but plain and simple its a way better camera. Results speak for themselves. Just because you're in love with pro body features doesn't mean you have an inherently greater sense of value and understanding regarding photography. Its what you do with it that counts.
Buying pro doesn't make us one, so maybe jump off your high horse, eh? :]
Point being, why does it matter to you if there is a D400?
But why must you try to tear down a D400?
Why must it be dead?
Why do people need the D7100 to become the top DX camera? Vanity?
I have followed this thread, and there has not been one truly viable well informed answer why Nikon would kill the line. Not one. If the D7000 series was enough, why is this thread 22+ pages long, added to 40+ pages from the old site?
Only Nikon USA is saying this. Go look at page 20, A Nikon Europe rep wrote a letter and said that Nikon Japan said this is NOT the case.
b) Nikon's own marketing people are calling the D7100 a Flagship and the D300s is effectively discontinued: unlike even the D90, it doesn't show up in those monthly bundle rebates...
Yes we have gone though this thoroughly multiple times - you believe companies are fickle, the natural disasters were nothing more than a hick-up and now a dead product from the 80's? Canon's plant was in the same industrial park as Nikon's. The 7Dii is just now coming out as well - I'm sure that is just a random coincidence.1) first, and this is a small reason, I'm saddened when I see people labouring under unreasonable expectation. Expecting a D400 is in my view unreasonable on three grounds:
a) By TTJ's own helpful chart, it's been either nearly four years (D300s) or nearly six years (D300) since a real update was made to this line, depending on how you score it. Unless there's precedent of such a long refresh time (such as D1-D2-D3-D4), when a product stops getting refreshed, well, in this day and age, it's gone.
DX00 was getting updated, according to the chart, every couple years. I'm still waiting for the next Intellivision hardware refresh. Don't bag on Intellivision--it's awesome. But it's gone. On the Gearhead Excuse Bingo card we've already called all the numbers for D400: Tsunami in one country. Flood in another. Quarterly profits. Quarterly losses. The extant product was so good, it's tough to replace. Ad infinitum. It's gone.
It will be the top DX camera for now, but I'll refer to PBPM's excellent post.
b) Nikon's own marketing people are calling the D7100 a Flagship and the D300s is effectively discontinued: unlike even the D90, it doesn't show up in those monthly bundle rebates...
This should bring an end to the debate on whether the D7100 is the D300s replacement. (A letter to a user on Dpreview from a Nikon Europe rep).
I do find this argument quite funny and tired. The first DX came out in 1999 - 13 years ago. Working pros used DX for 8 years and the only lens that was deemed necessary was the 17-55mm 2.8 in 2005 - 6 years later. So what has changed? Nikon nor Canon have a huge investment in DX 2.8 glass. Pentax was the only one who did release 2.8 lenses to match FX focal ranges. If that doesn't tell you anything I'm not sure what would.
c) When was the last time Nikon put out an interesting piece of dedicated-DX glass? I am aware that DX cameras may use FX glass (looks great on my D90!) but the joy of DX was supposed to be "lighter, cheaper, etc." I don't think Nikon is "abandoning" DX, they just released a body three days ago in fact, but everything the company has done lately points to a relegation of DX to the consumer and advanced-consumer market.
So your end argument is - personal? You don't want one, so why would anyone else? Sorry once more not a reason.
2) The second count, which is much more of an "I feel, I want" part, and therefore more important to me because it's more emotional, is an economic argument. I don't want Nikon developing a D400 because unless it's unrealistically good (mini-D4), I won't buy one. Selfishly, where economics is the study of the allocation of scarce resources, I want Nikon putting its R&D resources elsewhere, into things I'd be much more likely to buy. Well, what would I buy? Glad you asked:
f/1.2 glass with AF
DC glass at 200mm or below 85mm
Anything else your garden variety bokeh-whore would want

(CNSNews.com) - Erskine Bowles, the former chief of staff to President Bill Clinton whom President Barack Obama named a co-chair of his own National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, said last week he believes the federal government will probably go over the fiscal cliff.
"I believe the probability is that we're going over the cliff," Bowles said at the Christian Science Monitor Breakfast in Washington D.C. last week.
"I think that would be horrible and I think it would be devastating to the economy," Bowles said. "It particularly bothers me, especially given the fact that I believe this is the magic moment."
"If we are ever going to get a deal done now is the time to do it."
"Most importantly, to get something done here in town you've got to have a crisis and we got one. We've got a real crisis in this fiscal cliff and I think it would be insane to breach this fiscal cliff," Bowles continued, "Yet, I think there's only a one-third possibility we'll actually get something done before December 31st."

Emerald Princess..Southern/Eastern Carribbean.: Emerald Princess Cruise Review by BoPippy
Overall Member Rating
Emerald Princess..Southern/Eastern Carribbean.
Destination: Southern Caribbean
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
at Embassy Suites April 06...really nice hotel near cruise ships...carpets a little worn for a top hotel,but everything else perfect.Even a Mgr.party for 2 hours with all u can drink,beer,liquor,etc,Popcorn,chips,etc
Went to Outback steakhouse for dinner,really busy,but great food,good prices.
to cruise ship just before noon.Only took 10 min.to get there and 5-10 until we were on board with baggage about 45 min. later.The fastest time ever.So organised.Brought a 12 pack of Beer in backpack,Not a word said!!
This is our 15th cruise on Princess and 1 on Carnival and 1 on RCL.
C753 Aft..10th floor,Caribe Deck.Loved location,but would never take it again.Florida to Aruba for 2.5 days was very rough at the rear of ship.My DW was sick on the 2nd day.People at Mid Ship hardly felt the movement.Like sitting in a car and someone rocking back and forth 24/7...Not good.
Beds r HARD AS ROCK,even with an egg-crate. More
Ship is huge,never a problem getting deck chairs unless u go at noon.On sea days,i got up at 6 am took my books,glasses,towels and picked wherever i wanted,went back to room for DW,had breakfast and out to our chairs for the entire day.Perfect.If u r not in good shape,staying at rear of ship,it is a LONG way to the pool areas!
Wanted a table for 2,got it,but was a foot from other tables in a row.Talked to M'D and said i am a big man and would it be possible to have a nicer table,if there is room?He gave us a table for 4,just for the 2 of us for entire cruise.
Waiter Arnold,in Da Vinci was the nicest we ever had and he did Magic tricks at end of our meal every night!Bus Boy,Armando was excellent also.
Food was perfect,cooked perfect,but by the end of 10 days ,i wanted a meal at home.Seemed like ir was a lot of the same.
Pizza was worst of any cruise...to thin,had to use a fork,Burgers,Dogs,Fries,Ice-cream-great.
The Beatlemania show got rave reviews.It brought a tear to my eyes.Brought back memories of younger days. - standing room only. The others were typical of Princess - long-running musical shows, a comedian and a ventriloquist - nothing great but they were enjoyable.
3000 passengers...Approx:800 Canadian...1700 American and others.Good mix of all ages,few babies,few teens.All ages on board.
Weather was not as good as other cruises.Lot of overcast days.Maybe a good thing,so u don't burn so bad.
Ship,Staff,food,drinks,everything was very positive.
Leaving was effortless and fast.
A Perfect Cruise on the Love Boat. Less

43, Belotero for Under Eye Hollows - Atlanta, GA
After meeting with a well known facial plastic surgeon , I decided to go ahead with her recommendation of having Belotero injected under my eyes to help minimize the aging hollows, as opposed to getting a lower blepharoplasty. I purchased one vial of Belotero. She only used about 30% of the vial in my first session. She put numbing cream under my eyes, and after about 10 minutes of waiting,... READ MORE

Boys & Girls Club a North Side haven under 'Mr. P.'
As executive director of Sarah Heinz House, Stanley Pittman Jr. did not let turf wars on North Side streets come through the doors of the after-school program.
"We're kind of like that gym in 'West Side Story,' " said Pittman, 63, of Monroeville. "There was no fighting in the gym. That's kind of the way I looked at us here."
The man known as "Mr. P" will retire on Wednesday after 27 years at the helm of the Boys & Girls Club tucked next to the 16th Street Bridge and on-ramp to Route 28, beside the Heinz Lofts.
Jennifer Cairns, a former litigation partner at McGuireWoods LLP, will replace him.
Tori Prettyman, 17, of the North Side met Pittman when she started classes and activities at Sarah Heinz House at age 3.
"He's like that guy you can be friends with no matter what," said Prettyman, a junior at City Charter High School, Downtown. "He can be strict when he needs to, but the fact he's so genuine and kind, you don't hate him. He punishes you in a light way."
Howard Heinz built a boys club in 1901 that was the predecessor to Sarah Heinz House. In 1903, the club began admitting girls, a novel practice at the time. He built the stone-and-brick structure with stained-glass windows in 1913 and named it for his mother, Sarah. It became part of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America in the 1930s.
Pittman grew up in West Deer, the son of an officer with the union at Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co. and a homemaker mother. He graduated from Slippery Rock University with a bachelor's degree in health and physical education and dreamed of becoming a high school football coach.
He held teaching jobs and worked for YMCA branches in Sewickley; Canton, Ohio; and Wilmerding before taking the job at Sarah Heinz.
"He's got this calm, warm, gentle, approachable demeanor, coupled with this strong sense of value that I believe has really led to the major transformation at the Sarah Heinz House," said Margaret M. Petruska, a board member.
"He's taken a very good after-school program and with determination and patience and vision has really grown it into one that has national and regional visibility and one that is the largest, single-site Boys & Girls Club in the United States."
Petruska is senior director for the Children, Youth and Family Program at The Heinz Endowments, which provides about half of Sarah Heinz House's $2.2 million annual operating budget.
In 2007, Sarah Heinz House completed an $11.4 million expansion, including a swimming pool, fitness room, dance studio, gymnasium and cafe. The addition was certified for environmental friendliness. The original house has a game room, gymnastics room and classrooms.
Pittman said the building does not define his legacy — that, he said, lies with the staff.
"Ingrained in them is that, no matter what, the kid comes first," he said.

A former chief of the Australian navy says turning back asylum seeker boats worked during the Howard years and could work again today if the strategy was resurrected.
Retired Vice Admiral Chris Ritchie was chief of the navy between 2002 and 2005 and stands by the use of boat turn-backs under the former Howard government's border protection policy.
He said turn-back operations, as practised in 2001, were a ''hazardous, risky task'' as the navy was dealing with people determined to reach Australia no matter the cost.
''Nevertheless, it's a legitimate navy operation. It's something that navies have done over centuries,'' he told ABC radio on Friday.
''In that sense, if the government gives a direction to do it, the navy people will do it and they'll do it well.''
The Coalition has vowed to reintroduce a policy of turning back asylum seeker boats where it's safe to do so.
Vice Admiral Ritchie said the navy would leave the vessels with just enough fuel to reach Indonesia, before turning them around and sending them back.
Four boats out of 12 were successfully turned back, Vice Admiral Ritchie said. The practice stopped because ''no more boats came'', he explained.
''No more boats came. None at all,'' he said. ''If the conditions were replicated, it could still work.''
He said the Indonesians were always alerted when a boat was being turned back, and when it was expected in their territory.
Asylum seeker policy is expected to be high on the agenda for Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's talks with Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono in Bogor on Friday.
Earlier, former Defence chief Chris Barrie, said if the Coalition's tow back policy was implemented, boats would be burned and sunk and people would be put in the water.
Admiral Barrie, who was Defence chief from 1998 to 2002, has been a vocal critic of the tow back policy, saying it had put naval personnel at risk.
Opposition immigration spokesman Scott Morrison said it was a ''false test'' to suggest an agreement was needed between Australia and Indonesia over implementing a turn-back policy.
Mr Morrison, who was in Jakarta last week, said no such agreement existed during the Howard years but said he was confident of the broader cooperation of Indonesia on mutual asylum seeker strategies.
''Our prime minister John Howard never spoke to the Indonesian president about this matter,'' he told Sky News on Friday. ''These are things that are happening on our border, and our sovereignty.''

Nene Leakes And Gregg Leakes Are REmarried!
NeNe Leakes and Gregg Leakes Have Remarried
*We guess they liked it so nice, they did it twice!
Yes, we're talking about NeNe Leakes and Gregg Leakes. They said "I do" for the second time on Saturday evening.
It all went down at the InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta hotel and was witnessed by an audience of 400 family and friends … annnnnnd … Bravo's cameras for the couple's upcoming wedding spinoff, "I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding."
After the ceremony, it was party time, as the guests moved to the Windsor Ballroom for five hours of getting' down with the happy couple.
According to E! News, their son, Brentt, couldn't be more thrilled that his mommy and daddy are back together.
"I'm so happy to see my parents remarried, as a family we've never been happier."
NeNe Leakes and Gregg Leakes first got hitched in 1997 and separated in 2010. They announced their re-engagement this past December.
Congratulations to the couple!

If you have a question about this talk, please contact David Titterington.
(Joint AP/IoA Colloquium)
Protoplanetary disks are the birthplaces of plants, but the spatial resolution at long wavelengths has so far been insufficient to resolve the critical 5-30 AU region where they are formed. ALMA now allows us to zoom in to nearby disks and probe the physical and chemical structure associated with planet formation. In this talk, an overview of recent work by our group and colleagues on observations and models of protoplanetary disks around young stars in various stages of evolution will be presented. Early ALMA results include evidence for rotationally supported disks in the deeply embedded stage, the detection of organic molecules (including sugar) and water in forming disks, and the first images of the CO snowline in mature disks. The ALMA data are complemented by VLT -CRIRES, Spitzer and Herschel observations, which reveal new processes in the inner few AU of disks. Special attention will be given to transitional disks, which are a subset of disks with evidence for sharp-rimmed cavities (gaps or holes) in their inner part but with otherwise normal outer disks. These disks are called 'transitional' because they are thought to represent the evolutionary phase from the gas-rich protoplanetary disk to the gas-poor debris disk stage. They are the best candidate sources for harbouring young giant planets or where planet formation is currently taking place. The surprising results of our ALMA Cycle 0 program on the discovery of a huge dust trap (a 'planetesimal or Kuiper-Belt factory') in one particular transitional disk will be presented.

Replacing the Deck Hand Rails
(Under Construction)
After almost 25 years the deck hand rails on Sea Dragon have be sanded so many times there is little left of them. While considered replacing the teak hand rails with stainless steel, I really like the look of teak.
The first step was to find replacement hand rails... Not an easy task. Sea Dragon has two (2) sets of hand rails:
They are
two (2) hand rails forward with
3 loops on 13" centers made of 1 1/16" stock 2 1/2" high by 42"
And two (2) on the cabin
top which have
5 loops also on 13" centers made from 1 1/16" stock 2 1/2" high by 68"
As I searched for replacements, I was able to find several companies that produced standard hand rails but all were made with the loops on 11" centers. I talked with several shops that would make custom hand rails and the prices ranged from $500.00 to $1,400.00. Then fellow Pearson 365 owner, Don Woodruff, who offered to make hand rails. I took him up on the offer and just days before Christmas four (4) beautiful hand rails showed up on our front door step.... Just like Santa.
|As you can see the hand rails on Sea Dragon have been sanded and finished one time too many. Yes that is the bolt showing sticking out of the top of the rai.
In addition to have an odd dimension for the distance between loops the ends are different length.
The aft end is shorter at 3" and the forward end is 3.5".
Forward end of both Rails 3.5"
Above you can see the new hand rails.. Note the rails are
NOT flat on the bottom but cut at an angle to match the slope of the
Below you can see the new hand rails next to the old rails.
The forward rails are easily removed by simply unscrewing them from the V-berth (head & Saloon)
However the aft hand rails are through bolted with the interior hand rails... To remove the aft rails I had to find the screw heads which are hidden under plugs. To do this, I drilled a pilot hole through the plug. next a long screw is screwed into the hold until it strikes the hidden screw. Once contact has been made, I slowly tighten the screw and the plug will slide out.
One of the things I am considering is NOT installing the new exterior hand rails directly above the interior rails. Instead I am thinking about moving the interior rails in board so that they are easier to reach. Now they are near the center of the settees and difficult for my wife to reach.
Once removed I noticed that differences
in each of the contact points. Some were clean, while other clearly
After removing the rails I cleaned the
area well and filled the holes with silicone sealant while I drill and
Note: I marked each rail as I removed it
as I will be using the old rails as the pattern to drill the new rails. And
|One of the starboard aft rail's screw is in the dish rack and not easily reached. Using my hand-dandy $4.99 Harbor Freight right angle attachment I was able to quickly and easily remove the last screw.
|The first step was to clamp and align the original rail and the new rail so I could mark each hole to be drilled.
Using a square I marked each hole. Then I found the center of the rail.
Next the rails are clamped onto the drill press and using a 3/8" (1/8" drill bit) countersink to make the hole.
The bit was not long enough to drill all the way through the rail so a longer bit is chucked in and the hole is complete.
NOTE: the hole is enlarged to
In order the improve the seal I countersink
|After several months of procrastinating, I
finally installed the hand rails. With the first handrail I learned a very
tough lesson. I had taken such care to drill the new handrails at 90 degrees
only to learn that the original holes were anything but 90 degrees. It
appears that the factory installed the handrails by drilling both the coach
roof and handrails at the same time and only "eye-balling" the location and
So I took them home and did the best I could to match the angles of the old handrails. This made it possible to finally align the holes and bolts & dry fit the rails.
|After dry fitting the rails I cleaned the holes very, very well and inserted the nuts. Another lesson learned is that the smallest amount of wood will jam the threads of the screw & bolt. Each of the bolts and nuts on Sea dragon are 10 x 32 and anywhere from 2.5" to almost 6" in length. To set the nuts in the handrails, I simply placed the nut on spare screw and tapped it into place with a small hammer.
|Next each rail is tapped off and large amounts
of Boatlife Life Seal are added to the bottom of the rails and deck.
Then with the help of a fellow Pearson owner the
handrails are installed. I left the Life Seal undisturbed for 24
hours before removing the tape and excess Life Seal. Once it has cured for a 10 to 14 days I will
re-tighten the handrails and install the plugs.
In my case, I applied liberal amounts of Life Seal. I am willing to deal with the extra cleanup to feel good that they will not leak AND I will no have to go through the install ordeal again.

Please join friends, colleagues, and former students of the late Rev. Dr. James A. Noel, Ph.D. for an academic symposium discussing the four key issues of the African-American experience that shaped his work.
The Graduate Theological Union mourns the loss of the Rev. Dr. James Noel, a cherished member of the GTU community who died on Sunday, January 31, 2016. An alum of both SFTS (MDiv, 1975) and the GTU (PhD, 1999), Dr. Noel was the H. Eugene Farlough, Jr. Chair of African American Christianity and Professor of American Religion at San Francisco Theological Seminary, served on the GTU's core doctoral faculty, and was convener of the GTU's Black Church/Africana Studies Certificate Program.
The Graduate Theological Union, San Francisco Theological Seminary, and McGee Avenue Baptist Church in Berkeley are teaming up to offer the second annual Womanist Symposium entitled "But Who Do They Say I Am?"
The symposium will be held Saturday, Jan. 12, at McGee Avenue Baptist Church, 1640 Stuart Street, Berkeley, from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Distinguished Faculty Lecture, November 8, 2012

Rev. Dr. James Noel, the H. Eugene Farlough, Jr. Chair of African American Christianity and Professor of American Religion at SFTS, will deliver this year's Distinguished Faculty Lecture on November 8. His lecture is entitled "Black Religion in the Atlantic World during the Age of Revolution: Excavating the 'Sublime.'"
Dr. James Noel (SFTS), "Black Religion in the Atlantic World During the Age of Revolution: Excavating the 'Sublime'"
On Saturday, January 14, the Black Church/Africana Religious Studies Program hosted a Womanist Symposium – "Who Do They Say I Am?" at the McGee Avenue Baptist Church in Berkeley. The Honorable Congresswoman Barbara Lee, 9th Congressional District, was the morning keynote speaker.
Take a black sermon, print it in a book, then read it, and you have no idea what it means because it has been abstracted from the living worship of the black church, says the Rev. Dr. James Noel, (Ph.D. '99), Farlough Professor of African American Christianity at the San Francisco Theological Seminary. The sermon's meaning, he says, is determined by the hymns sung, the testimonials, the prayers said before and after the sermon's delivery, as well as what went on that week for parishioners. "My fascination is with religious experience and its various modes of expression," he says, "especially African American religious experience, which is different than that of Europeans or white Americans. The disciplines generated by both the Protestant Reformation and the Enlightenment aren't adequate for elucidating black religion, and this has implications for theological education."

The conclusion I've come to is that is it a combination of a number of things, pretty well all visual, although sometimes aural as well. Part of it is the appearance of the business. is it tidy, well presented, do the owners or managers have an obvious pride in the business. Or is it untidy, with mess all over the place, scraps of paper or workings, not particularly clean?
And the people tell you a story as well, both in their own presentation, and just as importantly, are they happy and cheerful. This is where the aural comes in. Do they sound happy, can you tell if they like working there? I remember going into an optometrist some years ago that had just a wonderful feeling of warmth about it. The staff really cared about that business and what they did for their customers.
Where this is leading me is to my activity for today. This is one of these days when you put something back in. I won't pretend I don't get something back, well, I may but usually takes a fair while.
Let me explain. Telstra, Australia's main telecom, for a number of years, has sponsored the Telstra Small Business Awards. The Awards recognise excellence in small businesses, across a number of categories. They are not just a matter of putting in a 'feel good' story. Applicants have to respond to a range of criteria, with the judges evaluating how effectively they have met each criteria.
This is backed by site inspections. The inspections have two roles. Obviously they allow the judges to verify that what was submitted is real. But they can also add to the submission. Not every one can write well, or put together a great submission, but they may still have an excellent business.
This is my fifth year as a Regional Judge for the Awards. I look forward to it each year because I see some great businesses. And although I'm in the business of helping small businesses plug their profit leaks and improve their businesses, I learn something new every year. Something that I can take on board and apply to other businesses, or to my own.
Today I'm off to do the site inspections for the 2006 Awards. From past experience I can tell you a couple of things already. The winner will not be someone who makes a great song and dance about their business, and usually themselves. It will be someone who just goes quietly about their business, looking after their customers. Their customers and creating a business to serve them well, are their focus, not themselves. Secondly, they will have good systems to run their business, systems which give them useful, timely information on which they can make decisions. They always do.
Some profit losses are pretty obvious - so you fix them.
BUT, what if you don't know profits are leaking, cash out the door?
Possible leaks could be anywhere.
Are there some clues or symptoms that are tell-tales?

DUARTE -- At City of Hope on Friday, 8-year old Ryan Compton of Simi Valley finally got to meet the man who saved his life.
Ryan was just 22 months old when he was diagnosed with a form of childhood leukemia that forced him to endure more than three years of rigorous chemotherapy.
To celebrate the end of his treatment, the family went on a camping trip. Ten days later, Ryan relapsed.
He then began even more grueling treatment to no avail, and ultimately had a life-saving bone-marrow transplant at City of Hope in 2010. The match was considered especially fortuitous since Ryan is of mixed Mexican-American, European and Native American heritage.
As part of the 37th annual "Celebration of Life" Bone Marrow Transplant Reunion at City of Hope, Compton and his parents embraced donor Barry Crackett from England and welcomed him to their large family.
"I finally got to hug the man that saved my son's life and let him know how grateful my family is and my community is to him," mother Maggie Compton, 43, said after the event. Crackett and his wife, she said, "get to see how healthy Ryan is and I get to share Ryan with them now."
Ryan, a boy of few but significant words, was really looking forward to meeting Crackett in person, she said. The two had communicated in letters but had never spoken to one another until Friday.
When the moment of truth arrived, she said Ryan was "a little taken aback" and "a little overwhelmed by the cameras and the people."
But "his smile says it all," Maggie Compton said. "He really embraced Barry and it was a happy day for the entire family."
Crackett, a 34-year-old design engineer from Northumberland, England, and his wife, who gave birth to their own son, Sol, just last month, will be spending the week with the Compton family.
Joseph Mandel, 63, of Woodland Hills also got to meet his bone marrow donor, Nevo Segal of Israel, and his parents at the event. A bone marrow transplant, which he had on April 28, 2010, was considered his last hope.
"Everyone's claiming him a hero and it's true, he just saved my life," Mandel said after meeting Segal.
Mandel, whose wife also happens to be from Israel, invited Segal and his parents over for Sabbath dinner Friday night.
Segal, 25, who is studying music computing at the University of London, said it was a was an "amazing" feeling to meet the recipient of the transplant and he looks forward to continuing his relationship with Mandel long after he returns to London.
"They will come to Israel. We will come to the United States," he said. "We'll be in touch for sure."
City of Hope has performed more than 11,000 blood and marrow stem cell transplants, according to the cancer treatment center.

AAA: Expect an increase in price of gas
Published: Monday, June 17, 2013 at 11:42 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 17, 2013 at 11:42 a.m.
The average price of a gallon of gasoline rose about 6 cents to $3.52 in Florida during the past week and dipped 2 cents nationwide, according to AAA.
Average price for a gallon of regular gasoline
Monday: $3.611
One week earlier: $3.635
One month earlier: $3.640
One year earlier: $3.509
Monday: $3.520
One week earlier: $3.461
One month earlier: $3.465
One year earlier: $3.326
Source: AAA
The national average price was $3.61.
Meanwhile, the price of crude oil ticked up slightly amid tensions surrounding Syria, a decline in the value of the dollar, and improved jobs and sales numbers in the United States, according to the travel club's Weekly Fuel Price Brief.
"Motorists shouldn't be surprised to see retail gas prices creep higher this week as tensions in the Mideast increase and create concerns of supply disruptions," said Jessica Brady, AAA spokeswoman with The Auto Club Group. "Although pump prices are higher now than they were this time last year, the Energy Information Administration expects the summer average price for a gallon of regular retail gas to average $3.53, about the same as last year."
In Gainesville, the average price of a gallon of gas was stable at $3.56, according to the crowd-sourced website www.gasbuddy.com. In Ocala, the average price was 3.486 and was going down.

I WOULD like to express concern that section 161 of the Highways Act is not being implemented within Malvern.
This Act was made to stop obstruction of the roads and the safety of children who should be under parental control but are not in some cases.
Footballs cause many issues to others, such as breaking plants off at cost to properties, damage to cars – more so if you have a new one parked which should be free from being smacked.
The law states that it is an offence to play or kick balls on the highway, but the police seem to turn a blind eye, which leads to things getting out of control, as many things have.

Ah yes it was this one!

Looks like Eurogamer's having a Hearthstone key giveaway. You might get lucky there!
But it's a fun cute game on it's own actually, I really loved it a lot. The game is really simple but fun.
The 3D art is really nice, and the track maker is really cool. You can ride your own tracks in the game. The characters are also rendered in full 3D which is really awesome.
Makes you wonder where the hell all these awesome games are nowadays, EA doesn't care about any game that makes less than cash monies than BF I guess.
RCT3 is also on GOG though, you can ride tracks and water slides and such in that one too. But I really don't know how the hell to play RCT3, the menus are so weird.
Sim Theme Park is American for Theme Park World.
Also Race the Sun is half price on gog - http://www.gog.com/game/race_the_sun
It may get cheaper, but its a very good game, hard but fair, and more people should have bought it
The D&D pack is once again heavily discounted on GOG so if you are that one person who lived under a rock for the last 15 years and never played any of them, now is your chance.
You want all of them, except for Dragonshard, which is awful, and, maybe, Demon Stone, which is weird.
GetGames has many AssCreeds on sale today. Which of them are worth my money and time?
I would recommend AC2 to anyone, it's a fun action adventure game with a decent story and some really nice cities to freerun around.
That said, I think AC1 is great too. It has some really annoying problems, but I think the assassinations and some of the city design makes up for that. It's not for everyone, and only if you can stomach a not small amount of repetition.
Yeah, I'd say get AC2 at the very least and play it first. It's still beautiful, some of the characters are fun, and you get to parkour around florence and venice. Brotherhood might be slightly better, but you'd be a bit lost if you started with it, I feel.
Whilst AC Black Flag is a superb game, from that lot AC3 seems to be the best deal - especially the 'deluxe' version with the DLC included. Don't, for the love of all things holy, go for the original AC though - the guards chase you for going slightly quicker than walking pace on a horse. Awful.
AssCreed2 is the best of the best.
AssCreed1 is great if you can deal with minor flaws; and equals 2 in setting, atmosphere and non-retarded plot points.
AssCreedBro gets too into side activities to the detriment of the main missions, but is still a good game.
AssCreedRev and AssCreed3 are in my To Play list, although I rarely hear them described as better than 2 or Bro.
For combat though, Brotherhood is miles ahead of II, just for including kill streaks. They drastically cut down time spent in combat. III is OK, not brilliant, but I enjoyed the environment, much like Kiril over there. If you haven't played an AC game yet pick up II and Brotherhood, I'm sure the others will go on sale during the Steam Christmas Sale anyway if you want them.
I would say more,
Just how many games are set on the Middle East or Renaissance Italy? Even the third one (American Independence) is not very seen, and Black Flag puts every Pirates of the Caribbean game and several films to shame.

The catalog for "Vincenzo Serpone's" (the store on the Via del Mascherino near St. Peter's) advertises in their catalog that they can embroider coats of arms onto the bottoms of stoles or the bottoms of mitres. I think they have a website.
Fabulous that is. Such lovely work.

"There's no doubt about it, if he has a good week of practice and a good game, then this is a tremendous boost for him," wide receivers coach John Eason said.
Kenneth Harris is one of the team's most reliable pass catchers but never surpassed Bailey on the depth chart because Bailey runs better routes and is faster, Eason said. Harris' route-running has improved, but he still isn't expected to be the deep threat Bailey was simply because he's slower.
"I really don't consider myself a deep threat," Harris said. "I've just been playing my role. I guess in this game I might step up and try to do that. I want to take advantage of my opportunity."
Bailey will have surgery in January to repair a torn ACL and will miss spring practice. He said he plans to return in 2006 but didn't rule out the possibility of redshirting if his knee isn't healthy.
"It's good to know that I haven't redshirted yet so I have that year," he said.
Backup receiver T.J. Gartrell is doubtful for the Sugar Bowl due to a hip flexor injury. He did not practice Wednesday. Peach County's A.J. Bryant will back up Harris at split end.
"We thought by now T.J. would be practicing," Coach Mark Richt said.

It is likely that ebook prices will soon start dropping as a result of a settlement reached between the Department of Justice and several book publishers last week.
The agreement is a blow to Apple, which was also named in a DOJ antitrust suit brought this spring alleging that the technology company and publishers fixed ebook prices. However, Amazon is likely to benefit by being able to sell competitively priced ebooks and attract consumers to its new ereader and tablets, which were introduced last week.
"Based on this ruling Amazon.com will undoubtedly grow its market share," said Gary Schwartz, "But this ruling is a soft push down a slippery slope for the book industry that dates back to 2007, when we saw the first Kindle. This was the harbinger of a new power game and more important, a new relationship with the digital consumer.
"My concern is that Amazon.com is simply using books to build its m-commerce empire? It is a stepping stone to developing a commerce checkout for sectors such as apparel and electronics and the quality of the bookshelf will suffer."
The publishers are also required, as part of the settlement, to phase out any contracts with retailers still using the agency model and bans them from imposing similar restrictions on prices for two years.
"Amazon.com says it is 'pro-consumer' but you cannot take the agent/publisher out of the value chain and expect the ecosystem to thrive," Mr. Schwartz said. "The number of self-published titles in the United States has tripled over the past few years and will continue to grow.
"However, by cutting out the agency and publisher, the industry has made the online and mobile storefront into the Wild West," he said.
"Publishing has become the easy part. Selling and driving profit for authors has become difficult."

just wanted to send a follow up email thanking you from me and my
group for facilitating our shark outing last week! We had a
blast! It was really neat to see the two sharks that were
caught that night. As a thank you I have attached some of
the photos that I took of the two sharks that were caught.
Thank you very much again and pass along my thanks to the captain
and first mate.
Micky, who did the Shark Hunt and sent these terrific photos:
"It was worth every
penny as a matter of fact, my friend is going to Hawaii next October so I told him that he
must book this fishing trip. Service 5, effort 5 (out of 5) Go again--without a
doubt. The skipper and crew were great I had a great time the only thing that would
be better is a longer time out maybe 10pm-3am. When we come out again I WILL book
with you. Thank you keep up the great work. I will tell everyone to check you
out when they go to Hawaii. Keep in touch"
