HELL AND HADES. "Hope not ever to see heaven: I come to lead you to the other shore; into the eternal darkness; into fire and into ice." Dante's `Inferno', from which the quotation comes, is perhaps the most vivid depiction in literature of the place of eternal punishment for evildoers. Abodes for the dead have formed a part of the religious belief of most peoples. One reason for such belief has been the reluctance to accept the end of human life on Earth as permanent, as the extinction of individual existence.
The names hell and Hades have generally been understood as places of punishment, either eternal or temporary. Ancient cultures often envisioned an abode for the dead as a reward, or as neutral, rather than always as a punishment. In very ancient primitive religions, as well as among American Indians, the dead went to dwell with their ancestors or to a heavenly location with other souls. Ancient Israel conceived of a place called Sheol, a dark and gloomy place, to be sure, but no elements of punishment were attached to it.
The Greek Hades (originally the name of the god who presided over it) did not suggest punishment either. It was a dark subterranean realm or a distant island. The dead were conducted to Hades by the god Hermes. The way was barred, however, by the River Styx. The dead were ferried across the river by the boatman Charon. Eventually, the Greeks added a place called Tartarus, far below Hades, as a place of torment for the wicked. In time Tartarus lost its distinctness and became another name for Hades.
The word hell comes from an Anglo-Saxon root meaning "concealed," and it suggests a place hidden in the hot regions at the Earth's center. In Norse mythology Hel was the name of the world of the dead as well as of its goddess. It was especially for evildoers and was distinguished from Valhalla, the place to which those who had fallen in battle went. The ancient Greek myth of Elysium, or the Elysian fields, was similar to Valhalla. It was a dwelling place for heroes on whom the gods had conferred immortality. Eventually it came to mean the abode for all the blessed dead, as opposed to Hades.
The concept of hell as a place of punishment is rooted in the idea of justice. Hell was offered as an answer to the question: If evildoers prosper throughout their lives and are never punished, when will they get what is coming to them? The answer must be: after they die.
The modern Western understanding of hell derives from the latest period in ancient Israel's history, and it was more fully developed by early Christianity. The chief suggestion of such a place in the Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) is a brief reference in Daniel. The place reserved for the wicked dead was called Gehenna by Jews. Early references depict it as a place of temporary punishment, similar to the Roman Catholic purgatory. By the time Christianity was established, it had become a permanent abode. The torments inflicted there were largely imaginative projections of the worst tortures devised in this world. Eternal fire is the most common punishment, though perpetual cold also has been accepted.
There is no fully developed teaching about hell in the New Testament, though there are frequent mentions of it. Only in the course of later church history was it elaborated into official church doctrine. Today the New Testament statements and their later explanations are taken literally by some Christians, regarded as allegory or myth by some, and denied altogether by others.
Islam has no consistent teaching on hell. It is regarded as permanent in some passages of the Koran and temporary in others. In Hinduism, hell is accepted, but it has no permanent significance. It is but a stage in the long career of the soul. For most Buddhist schools, as well, hell is a transitory phase where sins are purged.
HELL - Hell traditionally denotes the place or state of being of unrepentant souls who are damned to eternal punishment after death. Derived from the Old Teutonic word hel, meaning "to conceal" or "to cover," the word hell is used in English translations of the Bible to represent both the Hebrew Sheol, an ethically neutral underworld for the departed, and the Greek Gehenna, the underworld for the punishment of the wicked from which the Christian concept of hell developed.
The characteristics of an underworld pervade descriptions of hell. In Greek mythology, Hades is the underworld ruled by the god of that name, who is also known as Pluto; in Norse mythology, Hel is a cold and
shadowy subterranean realm. The Christian imagery of hell as a fiery underworld comes from the New Testament, where hell is depicted as a "lake that burns with fire and brimstone" (Rev. 21:8). Two of the most famous and extensive descriptions of hell in Western culture come from John Milton's Paradise Lost and Dante's Divine Comedy. While the Western prophetic religions view hell as the Last Judgment of those souls that will be eternally separated from God, most Eastern religions conceive of hell as a stage that souls pass through on their way to a different existence (see transmigration of souls).
Brandon, S. G. F., The Judgment of the Dead (1967); Mew, James, Traditional Aspects of Hell (1903; repr. 1971).
In Norse mythology, Hel, the daughter of Loki, was the goddess of death who ruled over the cold, dark underworld of Niflheim. She had a hideous body, half black and half blue. Her table was Hunger, her knife Starvation, her bed Care, and her attendants Delay and Slowness. Her domain was also sometimes called Hel in later mythology, probably through the influence of Christian belief.

Hell in Christian theology, eternal abode of those damned by God. Souls in hell are led by SATAN and deprived forever of the sight of God. In legend it is a place of fire and brimstone, where the damned undergo physical torment. Islam has a similar hell. In the ancient Jewish Sheol or Tophet, souls wander about unhappily, but Sheol later became much like the Christian hell. The ancient Greeks believed souls went to an underworld called Hades.

hades, hah'‑dace, Greek 86; from Greek 1 (a) (as a negative particle) and Greek 1492 (eido); properly unseen, i.e. "Hades" or the place (state) of departed souls :‑ grave, hell.
Hades_in Greek mythology. 1The ruler of the underworld, commonly called PLUTO. 2The world of the dead, ruled by Pluto and PERSEPHONE. Guarded by CERBERUS, it was either underground or in the far west and was separated from the land of the living by five rivers. One of these was the STYX, across which the dead were ferried. Three judges decided the fate of souls; heroes went to the ELYSIAN FIELDS, evildoers to TARTARUS.
HADES - {hay'-deez}
In Greek mythology, Hades, also known as Pluto, was the god of the underworld. The son of Cronus and Rhea, he ruled over the souls of the dead with the aid of his wife, Persephone. Later, Hades became better known as a place, the underworld itself--the world of the dead, separated from the world of the living by the rivers Styx, Acheron, Lethe, Cocytus, and Phlegethon. New arrivals were ferried across the Styx by Charon; unwelcome visitors were deterred from entering Hades by the multiheaded dog, Cerberus. The judges of the dead decided whether a soul would go to the Elysian Fields, for the virtuous; or to Tartarus, a place of punishment; or to the Asphodel Meadows, for those neither virtuous nor evil. In the Greek Old Testament, Hades, a translation of the Hebrew Sheol, refers to the place of departed souls.
Matthew 11:23 - And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.
Matthew 16:18 - And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Luke 10:15 - And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
Luke 16:23 - And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
Acts 2:27 - Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Acts 2:31 - He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
1 Cor. 15:55 - O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
Rev. 1:18 - I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Rev. 6:8 - And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Rev. 20:13-14 - And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Tartaroo, tar‑tar‑o'‑o, Greek 5020; from Tartaros (the deepest abyss of Hades); to incarcerate in eternal torment :‑ cast down to hell.
Tartaros in Greek mythology, lowest region of HADES, where the wicked, e.g., SISYPHUS, TANTALUS, were punished.
TARTARUS - {tahr'-tuh-ruhs}
In Greek mythology, Tartarus was variously the lowest region of the underworld or synonymous with the underworld (Hades), where Uranus banished his rebellious sons, the Cyclopes, and according to Homer, Zeus later confined the defeated Titans. According to one creation myth, based on Hesiod, Tartarus was born of the union of air and mother earth; the giants, of the union of Tartarus and earth. A grove of black poplars along the ocean stream marks the entrance to Tartarus, which is bounded on the west by the Styx.
2 Peter 2:4 - For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
geenna, gheh'‑en‑nah, Greek 1067; of Hebrew origin [Hebrew 1516 (gay') and Hebrew 2011 (Hinnom)]; valley of (the son of) Hinnom; gehenna (or Ge‑Hinnom), a valley of Jerusalem, used (figurative) as a name for the place (or state) of everlasting punishment :‑ hell.
Gehenna (Greek Geenna; Hebrew Ge Hinnom), Valley of Hinnom, near Jerusalem, where Solomon, king of Israel, built "a high place," or place of worship, for the gods Chemosh and Moloch, according to 1 Kings 11:7. Because some of the Israelites are supposed to have sacrificed their children to Moloch there (see 2 Kings 23:10), the valley came to be regarded as a place of abomination. In a later period it was made a refuse dump, and perpetual fires were maintained there to prevent pestilence. Thus, in the New Testament, Gehenna became synonymous with hell.
Moloch, in the Old Testament, deity at one period associated with Baal, probably as a sun god, but differing from him in being almost entirely malevolent. The worship of Moloch embraced human sacrifice, ordeals by fire, and self-mutilation. The Hebrew form of the word is invariably Molech, meaning "king" or "counselor." The first recorded instance of a worshiper of Jehovah who "burned his son as an offering" (that is, to Moloch) is that of Ahaz (see 2 Kings 16:3). The same story is told of Manasseh, eponymous ancestor of one of the 12 tribes of ancient Israel (see 2 Kings 21:6). The practice is also alluded to in the books of Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Leviticus. The ritual of Moloch worship was probably borrowed by Judah from one of the surrounding nations; it was practiced by the Moabites (see 2 Kings 3:27) and Ammonites.
Matthew 5:22 - But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Matthew 5:29-30 - And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. 30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut if off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Matthew 10:28 - And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Matthew 18:9 - And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.
Matthew 23:15 - Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
Matthew 23:33 - Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Mark 9:43 - And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Mark 9:45 - And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Mark 9:47 - And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:
Luke 12:5 - But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.
James 3:6 - And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

Base, which is basically just a double with a bunch of member functions and a long list of operators to make it behave like a number. Other than that, I also have a
Type() member which returns an integer.
Base type because it makes my code more readable and distinguishes the base type from an ordinary double, but I also don't like having to overload every single operators, as this is tedious. Ideally, I'd use
enum Base double and then declare a Base member function
Type() to get the integer, but this isn't legal in c++, is it?
|I want to keep the Base type because it makes my code more readable and distinguishes the base
|Yes I'm thinking of going with a typedef, but then I can't have a member function, right?
|Right, but you may not need one. Do you have an example of one you think you need?
typedef double Base
int getType(Base&);
const real s = 23.6 ;
r += t;
r += t; - the type of the expression
r += t is 'reference to double'.
s + t is cast back to "real" in
r = s + t ; - the type of the expression
r = s + t ; is 'reference to real'.
operator int& () { return value ; } won't compile;
int(value) is not a modifiable lvalue.
operator int () const is also not a great idea; it would create ambiguities when a
const real is involved.

Cooking with Essential Oils and the Bounty of Summer Gardens
Our summer gardens are officially in full bloom! Lettuces and leafy greens have already pushed through the spring soil, and now precious tomatoes and peppers are beginning to swell with the sweetness of the sun. Maybe last year you took a chance on cantaloupes, and this year you?re trying your hand at growing an herb garden that can be dried and used through the cold winter months. Whatever the contents of your backyard garden or patio pots, the bounty of the warm months inspires us all to eat well and connect with the earth, the true source of our well-being.
For much of the year, our produce is trucked in from far-flung farmlands. Once summer arrives, though, everyone gets the opportunity to claim their birthright as gardeners and cultivators of their own food. What?s best, local summer harvests allow us to experiment with simple, nutritious meals. With very little effort, a meal of fresh vegetables and summer fruits can become a decadent feast. And if your simple cuisine asks for a hint of the exotic, you can harvest a bouquet of flavors from the most unlikely of places: your aromatherapy medicine chest.
You already know that when using essential oils, it is always important to find therapeutic-grade oils. Because oils are concentrated substances, distilled from mass quantities of plant matter, you want to find the highest quality oil you can. While this makes sense when you think of essential oils being absorbed into the body through the skin, always sticking with therapeutic-grade oils has an added benefit: these powerful oils can easily be incorporated in cooking, too. Never thought of it that way before? Scent has a stronger influence on our perception of flavor than our taste buds do! With that in mind, here are a few simple ways the repertoire of essential oils can add a splash of flavor to your simple summer menu.
First and foremost, let?s address the issue of food safety. Essential oils are, obviously, plant-derived substances. While you may not want to eat a hunk of frankincense resin straight from the tree, frankincense is still a naturally occurring substance. It is not poisonous in small quantities, but it may make you want to brush your teeth immediately. Many essential oils are expressly dangerous for internal consumption, such as wintergreen and birch, but other oils can be used in small quantities for internal health as well as for cooking. In fact, the FDA has qualified many of the common essential oils as GRAS, Generally Recognized as Safe, substances. This means that, although they are not categorized as food additives, they can be consumed without apparent side-effects. When considering which oils to cook with, this is a good rule of thumb: essential oils of citruses, spices and other commonly-eaten foods are probably going to make excellent additions to your cuisine. Just be cautious when using essential oils that are known to irritate mucous membranes, such as cinnamon, oregano and peppermint.
Now that you have the beginnings of a delicious summer harvest, take a moment to consider how essential oils might enhance the bounty. Citrus oils, like lemon and grapefruit, mix well with olive oil for salad dressings. Just add a couple of drops to two tablespoons of oil to zest up a summer salad. Lime essential oil can be blended with avocado for guacamole, and mandarin orange oil makes a great addition to spinach salad. And don?t forget beverages! Citrus oils give juices and bubbly waters a great twist. Using equal parts lemon, lime and grapefruit, club soda becomes a refreshing citrus drink without the sugar or artificial sweeteners found in soda. Just remember, as with all essential oils, less is more. This rule applies to cooking, too, so use a light hand when sprinkling in these potent flavors.
What about the bevy of essential oils derived from well-loved cooking spices? Sweet marjoram, basil, ginger, thyme, oregano and bay can all be used to enhance food. Try blending sweet basil oil in with a tomato-mozzarella-Italian parsley pasta, or put a drop of ginger oil in your summer bok choy and carrot stir fry. Like your coffee with cardamom, Arabian-style? One drop of this oil transforms regular coffee into a delectable treat (hint: try this drink iced!). Cooking spice essential oils tend to be surprisingly strong, so again, don?t be lavish with them. Too much oregano or thyme oil will definitely ruin an otherwise balanced dish, so be careful. It?s also usually a good idea to wait to throw the oils in until the food is nearly done cooking, thereby reducing the chance of evaporation before you?re able to enjoy your creation.
Essential oils can also be used when making sweets. Vanilla and cacao essential oils infuse foods with their distinctly delicious flavors without the addition of refined sugar. And, different from extracts, essential oils do not contain alcohol, the substance used to distill food flavorings out of plant matter. For many, a couple of drops of vanilla bean essential oil in a cookie recipe tastes better than the sugary, chemical concoctions we find in commercially-made desserts. The same goes for cacao. Think baking chocolate! Dark, bitter yet definitely ?chocolate.? Lucky for us, the chemical constituents of chocolate that make us feel happy are best found in the darkest cacao. Toss a couple of drops of cacao essential oil in your yogurt and experience the elation of a chocolate high without the guilt!
Summer eating is something we look forward to all year. Whether it?s the promise of picnics with friends or simple feasts for two after a long day?s work, the bounty of the season makes eating a variety of fruits and vegetables easy. The addition of essential oils, an equally simple flourish, adds variety to dressings, sauces and beverages and extends our menu without necessitating a last-minute trip to the store. The next time you find yourself with unexpected houseguests and nothing fancy for them to drink, don?t despair: take fresh water over ice and a top it with a drop of orange essential oil. Now you?re savoring the ease of summer!

Daniel Radcliffe Stops By "The Tonight Show"
He's been all over the place promoting his new movie "The Woman in Black," and last night (February 1) Daniel Radcliffe was spotted at "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."
And while he wasn't really there to talk about his "Harry Potter" years, Daniel ended up chatting about the fact that he's glad to have moved on.
"I miss the crew, the people, a huge amount, but in terms of playing the character, you know I did it for ten years. Now, we had a great run but now I'm excited to be out in the world doing other things."
Jay also asked Daniel if he ever sees the movies on TV and decides to watch them. "No, God, I cringe very very hard. Particularly the early films. It's, you know, I look like a little frog boy. That chubby chin, massive eyes just on a tiny little head... it's not fun to watch."
Enjoy the pictures of Daniel Radcliffe visiting "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" (February 1).

RADIO | YouTube
Little interest in football shoes, retro epiphany, I find that I am empty at that moment, open wardrobe an Arian Foster jersey thing that catches my eye, a few years ago to buy the first jersey, no special the reason, just think the color is very nice, yeah nobody do not like Texans. I suddenly felt more representative of the jersey compared sneakers for a player, the shoes will not only be able to represent the player, but also to some extent to be able to represent and embody his team or the characteristics of the city, but also from a more practical speaking out to the streets to attract eyeballs Well young man who does not want to become the focal point of the street.
So I started the road of my jersey collection, first of all, of course, is from Texans Jersey and my idol Arian Foster began from his high school, college, where the team...... I have all in collection and I think these are representative of the times. also i collect them in a period characterized by the Brady, Watt and Schaub star jersey.
In the beginning I just collect jerseys of players that I like or very red, but then I found that this is a misunderstanding, I will miss a lot of the classic jersey, after all, I like the distinctive jersey, so, I also started to collect some of the players that I do not like but meaningful jersey.
Compared jersey now, I prefer to collect retro jerseys, throwback jerseys tend to represent the characteristics of the teams like Arian Foster 10th Anniversary Jersey .seems to look better, more special, more collectible value.

Gameloft's already responded. What's interesting is that a lot of their games (like NFL 2011) directly compete with a lot of EA games (like Madden 11).
In short, EA has kicked off a price war, and there's a time limit on this one. Apple is freezing the charts on December 23, which means that any games in the top 200 at that time will remain there over the all-important Christmas holiday, the point at which we've seen the biggest jumps in App Store sales (due to all the new hardware out there under the tree).

|Philippine ghoul
|Male/Female (infant)
A tiyanak (also known as patianak) is a creature in Philippine mythology that resembles a human infant. It is said that a miscarried or aborted fetus, or a baby who dies without being baptized, becomes a tiyanak. Evil spirits use the infant's body to attack victims, eating their inner organs and drinking their blood.
Appearance and behavior
During the day a tiyanak might appear to be an ordinary baby. By night, however, it grows sharp teeth, long fingernails, and black and hairy skin.
It lures its victims by imitating the cries of an abandoned baby. Anyone who makes the mistake of approaching or picking up the "baby" is attacked. Aside from slashing victims, the tiyanak also delights in leading travelers astray or in kidnapping children. In some instances, it is said that once given the chance to suck milk from the breast of a mother, the tiyanak will drain all her blood.
- Mantianak - Described as a baby with a long beard. Pregnant women who hear its cries end up miscarrying.
- Muntianak - A baby who died in the womb. Lives in the forest and terrorizes people.
Popular culture
Tiyanaks have appeared in various movies and television shows.
- Tiyanak (2007) - Directed by Mark Reyes which top-billed Rica Peralejo, Mark Herras, and Jennylyn Mercado. In this version, tiyanaks are featured in three forms — those that thrive on land, water and air.
- Tiyanak (1988) - Popularly called "Ang Anak ni Janice", Janice de Belen being the lead character who portrays the mother of the monster baby. Also starring Lotlot de Leon, Ramon Christopher, Mary Walter, Carmina Villaroel, and Smokey Manaloto. Directed by Peque Gallaga and Lore Reyes.
- Tianak (1953) - The first movie tackling the tiyanak theme. Filmed in black and white, it starred Nena Cardenas, Rosa del Rosario, Ramon D'Salva and Pedro Faustino.
- Da Adventures of Pedro Penduko - ABS-CBN telefantasya series which in its 10th episode featured the tiyanak. Starring Matt Evans, Juliana Palermo and Denise Joaquin in guest roles.

Target: Florida Senate
Goal: To tell the Florida Senate not to pass a bill that would censor the First Amendment rights of animal rights activists by making it a first-degree misdemeanor to take photos or recordings of a farm.
New media and discreet cell phone cameras have made it easier than ever for animal rights groups to expose animal cruelty. We have seen recordings and photos online of people doing unspeakable things to animals in big factory farms, and in response we have enacted reforms such as California's Proposition 2, which required that farm animals confined to cages have enough space to turn around and fully extend their limbs. But Big Agriculture doesn't want these reforms. That is why, instead of improving conditions for farm animals, it is trying to make it impossible for us to see what the farms are doing to them.
The so-called "Ag Gag" bill was introduced in the Florida Senate earlier this year, and would have made it a felony to take photographs or video of a farm without written consent. Fortunately, this bill never made it to a vote, and the other "Ag Gag" bills in New York, Iowa, and Minnesota also failed. But the fight is not over. Florida Senator Jim Norman has managed to sneak the Ag Gag legislation into a larger agricultural bill that the Florida Senate is currently considering.
If passed, this bill will eliminate transparency in the Florida agriculture industry and stand in the way of much-needed animal rights reforms. It also flies in the face of our First Amendment rights. Clearly it needs to be stricken down. Don't let Big Agriculture win. Tell the Florida Senate not to let this bill pass in its current form.
Dear Florida Senators,
I was dismayed to hear that Jim Norman's legislation criminalizing the practice of taking photos or recordings at farms has been reintroduced through an agricultural bill. This is clearly an effort by Big Agriculture to eliminate the transparency that is so vital to exposing the inhumane treatment of animals that goes on in these farms every day. This kind of legislation would be devastating to the animal rights movement, not to mention in clear violation of our First Amendment rights.
A vote for SB 1184 would be a vote for censorship and animal cruelty. I hope that you will stand up to Big Agriculture and do the right thing by voting this bill down and ending Jim Norman's attempts to silence animal activists.

Whatever issues remain to be resolved behind closed doors between Carlos Boozer, his teammates and the Jazz organization, Kyle Korver did his part Friday to put the best public face on Boozer's return to Utah.
With Boozer facing reporters at media day, Korver waded into the fray to pronounce himself "really offended" by Boozer's summer comments, before declaring that he could make amends by promising him six kickouts for open three-pointers this season.
For such an assist from Korver, Boozer went a step further, offering 10 kickouts, and Korver left laughing. It proved to be the afternoon's lone lighthearted moment as Boozer offered no apologies following his offseason trade campaign.
Boozer insisted that his intention was to promote his Juneau, Alaska, basketball camp when he expressed a desire to be traded in a series of interviews, going so far as to name Chicago and Miami as preferred destinations.
"Let me address that right now," Boozer said. "I got asked the question -- I was doing an interview for my basketball camp in Alaska -- I got asked the question if I got traded here, if I got traded there, would you want to go?
"If I get traded, I don't have a choice but to go, so I said, 'If I get traded, yeah, I'll go.' Nonetheless, I'm here, I'm back in Utah. I'm excited to be here, ready to move forward, get on the court with my teammates and see how good we can be this year."
Boozer said he felt no need to clarify his comments sooner and was adamant that he had been told this summer he was not part of the Jazz's future plans. "I got that message from management," Boozer said.
That message, Boozer suggested, was delivered when the team declined to offer him a contract extension after he decided June 30 to play the final year of his contract at $12.7 million rather than becoming a free agent.
"I felt like I was one of the pieces of the puzzle of trying to get this team where we wanted to go," Boozer said.
Although general manager Kevin O'Connor acknowledged Friday that he spoke with Boozer's agent, Rob Pelinka, on the subject of an extension, Boozer also had a conversation with chief executive Greg Miller in July.
Boozer declined to elaborate on their conversation. During his interviews this summer, Boozer claimed that he and the organization had mutually agreed to a trade. "That's over and done with," he said Friday.
He added that he was "surprised, but I'm happy" to be back for a sixth season in Utah. He returned to town Thursday and arrived early at the practice facility Friday to meet with coach Jerry Sloan.
"I told him I'm going to lay it out there for him every night like I always do," Boozer said, "bust my tail in practice, work hard with my teammates, make a commitment to being a better defensive player, which should help our team win."
"You don't know how a team's going to react," Sloan said. "I think he's aware of that, but from my conversation with him, he indicated he's going to do everything he could to play as well as he could. What more can you ask?"
For starters, Boozer was asked how he took the Jazz's decision to match Portland's four-year, $32 million offer sheet to keep backup forward Paul Millsap.
"To me, I don't feel any threat at all," Boozer said, adding that he was happy for Millsap. "Me and Paul played a lot together already last season and I'm looking forward to seeing what we do this year together."
With the Jazz's payroll having ballooned to $82 million -- some $12 million into luxury-tax territory -- Boozer still could be moved before the NBA's Feb. 18 trade deadline. How can he be fully invested with the Jazz given such circumstances?
"I'm committed," said Boozer, who pronounced himself healthy after undergoing knee surgery and missing 44 games last season. "I told coach I'm committed to being here, I told my teammates the same thing."
For all the trade options they were believed to have explored, the Jazz brought back Boozer believing he would have to produce heading into free agency. Does Boozer feel that urgency the same way?
"I'm a great ballplayer when I'm able to be on the court," Boozer said. "And for me, I've got to prove everything on the court. Talking is one thing and doing it is something else, so I'm looking forward to doing a lot and I'm looking forward to our team doing a lot."
With the Jazz now having a greater investment in Millsap than Boozer, Sloan was asked if he had a starting power forward going into training camp.
"I don't think you make any decisions right now," he said, "because there's certain things that guys have got to do and we've got to see how we're going to play together, who's going to play. I don't think anything's in stone. I know they're both very talented guys."
Part of the solution might come with playing Millsap at times as a small forward, something Sloan already has discussed.
"We will have to make a spot for those guys if they play like we expect them to play," Sloan said, adding, "There's always minutes for guys who want to play and get the job done. And I said get the job done, not just play. By that, we've got to win."
After he re-signed with the Jazz, Millsap spoke of taking the next step and becoming a starter. But if he now has to come off the bench, Millsap would be willing, saying of Boozer's return, "I feel like we've got a better chance to go further in the playoffs."
"Carlos has proven that he can play basketball," Millsap added, "and playing behind him another year or two or however long he's going to be [here], it's good for me, better for me. I'm going to try to continue to learn from him."
The rest of the Jazz were equally supportive. Deron Williams greeted Boozer by saying, "Let's play ball," while Andrei Kirilenko also welcomed back the former All-Star. "We know him very well, how he can play, so we're still counting on him," Kirilenko said.
During Boozer's 10-minute session with reporters, the closest he came to expressing contrition came in response to a question about how much he lauded the prospect of playing for the Bulls and Heat, Derrick Rose and Dwyane Wade.
"Sometimes you put your foot in your mouth and I've definitely had my fair share of putting my foot in my mouth a few times," Boozer said, before again insisting he simply was answering questions in those interviews.
The potential for distractions is great, with no certainty that Boozer will finish the season in Utah. More questions are sure to follow, in every city where a team has free-agent money to spend next summer or is looking to make a trade this season.
"I probably have a lot to prove," Boozer acknowledged. "Not only to the fans, but everybody. To myself, to my teammates, to the coaches, to the fans, to whoever. But for me, I'm looking forward to doing that."

Jay Paterno says his father, legendary football coach Joe Paterno, did not know Jerry Sandusky was a child predator and did not join in any kind of coverup.
The younger Paterno, in a column to be published in Friday's USA TODAY along with an editorial critical of his father, said one of Joe Paterno's last wishes before his death from cancer was to have the truth be told about the scandal that enveloped Penn State.
Joe Paterno had no fear of the truth, Jay wrote. "That was in keeping with the way he lived his life."
Jay added, "Joe did not cover up for Jerry Sandusky or conceal information."
Paterno, the winningest football coach in major college history, was pilloried by former FBI director Louis Freeh in a report released Thursday on the Sandusky scandal. Sandusky, a former longtime assistant of Paterno and at one time thought to be his successor, was convicted last month of 45 counts of child sexual abuse involving 10 victims during a span of 15 years. He is in a central Pennsylvania county jail awaiting formal sentencing, although his lawyers filed an appeal Thursday.
Freeh, in a news conference in Philadelphia, said Paterno could have stopped the child abuse by Sandusky if he so wished and wrote that the coach along with three other key school officials "repeatedly concealed critical facts relating to Sandusky's child abuse from the authorities, the Board of Trustees, Penn State community, and the public at large."
Paterno died of cancer in January.
"Joe was not perfect," Jay wrote. "He would be the first one to tell you that he had his share of flaws, just as anyone else. In fact, he was the first person to say that, with the benefit of hindsight, he wished he had done more to stop Sandusky. Everyone with any connection to these events must share that wish. But to suggest that Joe did anything to prevent the facts from being known is a deliberate distortion of the truth."

Plans for Roadhouse moving through Rochester chutes
Here's a quick update on the Texas Roadhouse coming to Rochester:
Building plans for the new Texas Roadhouse restaurant have started wandering through official channels like a cow looking for the sweetest patch of grass in the pasture.
The plan calls for a 6,995-square-foot restaurant to be built in the parking lot of Rochester's Northwest Plaza shopping center along 55th Street Northwest.
That's the center that's anchored by Walmart North and Sam's Club. This project first rode into Rochester in February when the Rochester Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously branded the project as "OK."
Now that the plans are trotting through the city's official chutes, it is possible construction could begin before school starts again. I'll ride herd on this to see what other details I can round up.

Texas Oil Production Surges to Record
New figures from the U.S. Energy Information Center shows Texas oil production hit a new record high in September, as, led by the Eagle Ford south of San Antonio, the state extracted 2.7 million barrels a day, 1200 WOAI news reports.
Not only is that a new record, but is shows that Texas oil output has more than doubled in just the last three years.
"This production surge has to be one of the most significant increases in oil output ever," analyst Mark Perry told the energy web site 'fuel fix dot com.'
Perry called the rise in oil output 'phenomenal' and 'meteoric.'
It is the highest daily output from Texas since the feds began keeping records in January of 1981, and marks an amazing 30% increase in Texas oil production just in the past year.
The oil boom of the 1970s, which is the benchmark in Texas, peaked at about 3.4 million barrels per day, a figure that analysts think the state has the ability to break as early as next year, due largely to the discovery of new fields of tight oil in south Texas and the Permian Basin.
Texas currently produces 35% of all the oil produced in the United States, including the North Slope of Alaska.

I AM not the first - and feel sure will definitely not be the last - to say that Disney's long-awaited staging of The Lion King at the Liverpool Empire has been a roaring success.
The award-winning show - featuring music and lyrics by Elton John and Tim Rice - is at the city centre venue until July 5, as part of its record-breaking UK tour.
Based on the Academy award-winning film this colourful and lively production, which was four years in the making, tells the compelling tale of Simba.
It follows the young lion cub as he journeys through life and struggles to accept the responsibilities of adulthood and his destined role of King. Along the way he meets Timon the Meerkat and his flatulent friend Pumbaa.
The touring production features a truly international cast of more than 50 actors, singers and dancers, from 17 different countries, supported by a backstage team of over 100 people.
With hundreds of masks, puppets and more than 700 elaborate costumes representing 26 different types of animal, 21 giant trucks are used to transport everything across the country.
It is show packed with brilliant dance pieces by Garth Fagan, memorable music, laughs and high drama.
Fans of the film will be familiar with the tale of tragedy, victory and songs Can You Feel The Love Tonight, The Circle Of Life, Akhuna Matata and The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
As you would expect, the stage adaptation is a lot more powerful than the film, with whoops and gasps from members of the audience in places.
It is also full of surprises and it would be wrong to list these in detail - particularly if you are planning to take the children along to see it.
Suffice to say, there was a standing ovation for the cast following last night's performance.
The audience's appreciation was evident outside the theatre as people sang some of the show's tunes while making their way to waiting coaches, cars and the train station to go home.
In total, the touring production is visiting 10 cities across the UK and Ireland over two-and-a-half years, with further dates and locations to be announced.
The stage adaptation of Disney's 1994 film was first seen on Broadway in 1997, where it recently became the highest grossing show in Broadway history. It has now been seen by more than 65 million people across five continents.
The acclaimed West End production continues to sell out at London's Lyceum Theatre in its 14th triumphant year.
This new touring production has enjoyed sell-out, record-breaking seasons in Bristol and Manchester.
- Tickets for the show are from the Liverpool Empire box office on 0844 871 3017 or www.thelionking.co.uk

Noe is the eldest son of Juan Quezada and is the heir apparent to his father.
This superb black matte colored clay pot is masterfully decorated with his trademark "computer board design" with macaw, in a rich gray colored natural
pigment. It always surprises me the precision with which Noe paints his ollas!
The form of the pot is perfectly balanced and elegant.
Noe Quezada has been included in every publication about Mata Ortiz pottery and his ollas have won numerous awards. He is a natural
born artist!
This olla is superior to the commercial, "series-produced", pots that have been turning up lately. This olla has character and
reflects the patience and dedication Noe put into it....it has soul!

A HUGE cannabis factory uncovered following a routine burglary call was larger than police first estimated and took more than a day to dismantle.
Officers worked solidly for hours to remove 1,700 plants from the disused industrial unit on Cheney Manor Industrial Estate this weekend, after response units made the discovery upon arriving at what they thought was a burglary late on Thursday night.
A police source said the street value of the class B drugs could now be more than £1m, as work continued to dismantle all electrical equipment rigged up as part of the production line the gang had established.
It is one of the biggest cannabis seizures in the town's recent history, second only behind a raid at Poplar Farm, Wanborough, to smash a £25m drugs ring smuggling the class B substance in with fresh flowers.
Witnesses are still being sought as detectives try and trace who was responsible, as no one was on scene when officers arrived even though there were rudimentary living quarters.
Det Sgt Joe Saunders said: "We are pleased that we, along with the member of the public who phoned us, have stopped a huge amount of cannabis making it on to the streets of Swindon.
"We would like to hear from anybody who knows anything that could help our inquiry."
Anyone with any information should contact Swindon CID on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

NEW YORK (Dec. 21)
The names of the five Hasidic rabbis who were killed yesterday in a highway accident near Downingtown, Pa. were released last night to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency by Rabbi Nachum Yosefy, a spokesman for the Council of Jewish Organizations of Boro Park in Brooklyn. The five were Menachem Krauss, Shlomo Berkowitz, Asher Zelig Kahana, Elchanan Spiegel and Shmuel Hecht. A sixth victim, Rabbi Yosef Gootman, was reported in very critical condition in a hospital in Coatsville, Pa.
According to Yosefy, all of the victims were ritual slaughterers or kashrut supervisors. All resided in the Boro Park of Williamsburg sections of Brooklyn. The accident occurred at around 4 a.m. while they were on their way to a kosher packing plant in Lancaster County. The car in which they were riding skidded into an oncoming tractor-trailer when the car hit an ice patch at the intersection of Routes 30 and 113.
Yosefy did not know the ages of the victims. However, a spokesman for the Shomrei Hadas Chapels in Brooklyn said Krauss was 57 years old; Spiegel, 46; Hecht, 38; and Kahana, 56.

Cancer 2009 Astro Guide
Serious love and commitment are coming your way. If you've found your honey, expect things to get even heavier. If you're single, this is the year to find the one. The catch? You're going to have to push it to the tipping point and be the one that tracks him down. This means dealing with self-esteem issues, getting a sense of balance and switching positions to play on the offensive rather than the defensive. Break tradition and pick whom you want, instead of going with the scraps. Of course, introspection is required to gather a clear vision of what you want, how he'll fit, how you'll want to feel, etc. From there, keep the action happening, no matter how brutal the rejection will feel sometimes. If you show how much you want it, surreal twists of fate will lead you to a dramatic and beautiful finale.
Shacking up or marriage is in your stars. The problem is, you'll learn that domestic bliss won't be all its cracked up to be, as you'll find out that sharing everything in a more serious way really isn't your forte. Just because you love someone doesn't mean you want to accept all their habits first thing in the morning, which will then put the focus on solving logistical issues, like resorting the home base and the financial situation in your life. This will create big wins and big losses, but all in all, you'll get the sense of security you crave and as long as you're committed to the bigger picture, those trials and tribulations will eventually be absorbed into your normal routine and in time, seem effortless. Chances are, the bigger challenges will then be curbing your possessiveness and jealousy issues, but for now, take it one year at a time.
Career will finally go down on your list of priorities, as material and egotistical pursuits in your life become of less value. Upgrading this state of mind will naturally occur as fulfilled emotions give you the sense of satisfaction that your ambitions couldn't. However, now being able to see your life in a more profound sense, you'll have new reasons to appreciate your successes and striver for higher ones. 2009 is set to be one of your most deeply gratifying years, as you'll have finally learned all the lessons you need to secure true happiness and be able to enjoy it. Yes, sex, love, money and personal satisfaction will all be your power sources and yes bitch, everyone will want to be you.
Best Times To Get Lucky:
Play with the stars and aim to win. These dates mark your luckiest periods for luck, love, sex and relationships, and also the times in which you'll be at your very best. If you get a turbo boost, that indicates your luck in that area is doubly so — as in upping your chances to bigger and more exciting proportions!

Most of the 500 parents asked by PCP Ltd for home insurer Zurich said their offspring had smashed windows, damaged cars or stained carpets and furniture.
One out of every two teens has thrown a party, and one out of every 10 failed to forewarn parents, the report says.
And six out of every 10 teen parties results in damage to houses or gardens.
One in every five parents said their offspring failed to confess when things had gone wrong, with a further two out of every three children blaming damage on their friends.
Younger teens cause the most damage - one out of every two teenage perpetrators of household floods and fires is aged 13, according to the study.
Zurich spokeswoman Maria Donald said: "With the summer holidays upon us and exam results just round the corner, many of the nation's teenagers will be gearing up for a celebration.
"Most parents view teenage parties as a fact of life and rightly encourage their children to enjoy life to the fullest while they are young.
"But it is important to prepare for the possibility they can end up putting dents not only in their homes but also in their parents' wallets."

Your comments
I remember my own teenaged parties. I was fortunate, in that my parents insisted on being in the house, but very kindly shut themselves in their bedroom after 8.30 pm! We had an unspoken agreement that we would not embarrass each other. Nothing ever got out of hand, because they were there, and because I was careful with who was invited, but we didn't feel watched.Octavia, Sheffield, UK
If children are damaging their own homes at 13, is it any wonder that at 18 and 20 they are out on drunken binges damaging other people and themselves. This is all down to slack parenting and no discipline.David Ball, Colchester, England
So many teen movies from the States inevitably show successful teen parties as an orgy of drinking, sex and destruction: the "American Pie" series, "10 Things I Hate About You" and countless others. Now our teens think this is the norm rather than fantasy. The irony is that these are the same kids who will expect their parents to fund their university education and buy them a house later in life. Perhaps we could have vandalism loans, just like student loans, which will pay for the damage they wreak and need to be repaid by them over the years.Lesley, UK
I've had thousands of parties in my life so far (I'm only 18) but my friends know to respect my parents otherwise they won't be coming back. We've had a few accidents admittedly but because people have owned up and paid for the damage themselves it was no hassle. I was taught from a young age to respect people's property and that's how it's stayed. And my parents trust me. Natalie, UK
For goodness sake - being young is about thrashing around in the world and finding your place in it. This is on the path to responsibility yes, but saying that 'carelessness' is unacceptable and should not be tolerated is ridiculous. Young people learn from their mistakes - if they are not allowed to make any, they never learn.Katherine, London, UK
My student son had a party when my husband and I were on holiday last month. Apart from finding all our pictures in different places and red wine stains on the carpet you would never have known! He had told us he was having a party, but the handful of friends turned into quite a lot more, most of whom stayed the night.Calypso, Oxford
I wonder how much damage "DIY disaster" dads can cause when armed with a pipe wrench and a drill? We're almost guaranteed to be wringing carpets out in my house if my father decides he's going to do a bit of "Handy Andy".Neil Thompson, Northwich, Cheshire
As a teenager (17), one of my friends decided to throw a party at her parent's hotel whilst they were on holiday. She actually leafleted the town to get more people to come. Unsurprisingly, the place got completely trashed - furniture thrown in the pool, windows and doors broken, laundry ripped and all the alcohol consumed. My friend suffered a broken arm as she helped trash her parents business, but told her parents that people had gatecrashed the party. They believed her, even though she had almost bankrupted them.Ruth, Bristol, UK
Why should we accept that teenage enjoyment equates to causing damage? Whilst having fun is to be encouraged, teenagers must also be taught responsibility. Carelessness, drunken behaviour (at such a young age) and wanton vandalism are unacceptable and should not be tolerated. Why should all other insurance policy holders be expected to pick up the costs in higher premiums?Paul, Lelystad, The Netherlands

The President's Public Service Fellowship was established in 1994 to provide expanded opportunities for Yale students to work on behalf of economic development, human development, and neighborhood revitalization with public sector and nonprofit organizations in the City of New Haven.
Since 1994, the Fellowship has grown from 20 Yale students working full-time for eight weeks during the summer to 32 Fellows in the summer of 2015 working for up to eleven weeks at 30 different organizations. The placement possibilities for the summer of 2017 feature exciting new projects.
The President's Public Service Fellowship has built a strong reputation with organizations in New Haven, and has created a legacy of current Yale students and recent graduates who have a sophisticated view of community development and remain active in community building in New Haven and in other cities.
More than 800 Yale University undergraduate, graduate and professional students have contributed more than 270,000 hours of community service to New Haven nonprofit and public sector agencies as President's Public Service Fellows since 1994.
Fellowship Selection and Application
In the past, Fellows have been selected from a competitive applicant pool of more than 150 students, and in 2017 the Fellowship offered placements to 29 qualified applicants.
Students not in their final year of study may apply for placements proposed by New Haven agencies. Student applications and additional information can be found on the Undergraduate and Grad/Professional instruction pages.
Length of Placement, Fellowship Requirements and Stipend
For the summer of 2017, placements can be for any consecutive period of eight to eleven weeks between May 30 and August 11, 2017. Yale will pay a taxable stipend directly to students, ranging from $4,400 to $7,800, based on experience, degree pending, and weeks worked.
In addition to their daily work, supervised by the agency, Fellows have a comprehensive mandatory orientation program from May 23 through May 26, must attend weekly dinners beginning May 30 through August 8, and are required to complete mid-term and final reports describing their summer work.
Over the years, Fellows have worked with many diverse agencies with projects spanning the areas of Community Services, Business, and Youth Development. Previous Fellowship sites number over 50 organizations and city departments. A few of those sites have included:
- Christian Community Action
- City of New Haven, Chief Administrator's Office
- City of New Haven, City Plan Department
- City of New Haven, Parks and Recreation
- Connecticut Center for Arts and Technology
- Eli Whitney Museum
- Greater New Haven Chamber of Commerce
- Integrated Refugee & Immigrant Services (IRIS)

There is maybe some issues with the Mac version. I installed it on my wife's iMac (running 10.4.11) and the computer's sleep function quit working. Only way I could fix it was to disable sleep and just run it with just a screen saver. My wife was so irate about it that I haven't even tried to use the sony library software on there since. I run a linux box myself and of course there is no linux version, but I use vmware under linux to open a window running windoze xp just to run things like the sony library. It works but it's an extra hassle to use. OTOH, I'm very glad the calibre got the kinks out of it's linux version and now I can use that nice program to do everything but put drm books on my reader. So what I do with my 950 now is just look the books up on the web at the sony ebookstore, then if I decide to buy them, I purchase them and download them directly to the reader over the 3g network.

What is the meaning of electronica?
Electronica is a genre of music, created using technical instruments to lay out patters of pitch changes in a synthesizer or sampler.
