BENNETT Joyce (Cannell) Passed away peacefully on October 19th, 2008, her
children by her side. She is lovingly remembered by her children Brock,
Norah and Kathleen and her grandchildren Jane, Johnny, Tara, Emily and
Jacob. Joyce was predeceased by her husband John and her son Mark. Joyce was
born in Vancouver July 9, 1915. She lived most of her life in the Greater
Vancouver area. She was delighted to attend the 100th anniversary of Queen
Alexandra School this past summer where she had attended as a child. Joyce
also lived in Kamloops and Edmonton. Joyce loved plants, flowers and birds;
she made beautiful gardens wherever she lived. No road trip was complete
without a stop to dig up a wild plant along the way. Many injured birds were
brought home and nursed back to health. Joyce said she was not artistic at
all, but she made the most beautiful costumes for school plays and her
children always had the best Halloween costumes. Joyce made dolls, which she
donated to the Woodlands School for fundraising. Joyce volunteered to work
with children both in Kamloops, where she worked with autistic children, and
the Woodlands school in New Westminster. Joyce loved to learn and read. She
was fascinated with history and civilizations past and present. Her
responsibilities prevented her from completing her education while she was
young. She never lost sight of her goal; she graduated from Simon Fraser
University when she was seventy-eight years old. Her quest for knowledge and
understanding inspired all those close to her. Joyce was both strong and
very gentle. She lived through difficult times and faced many challenges but
never lost her gentle ways. She touched the heart of many with her quiet
strength. She is missed by all who knew her. Heaven has gained a wonderful,
kind soul who touched all of those who were lucky enough to encounter her on
her life's journey. A memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on October
23rd at the Burquitlam Funeral Home, 625 North Road, Coquitlam.

FRASER Doreen Sylvia (nee Maynard) Just like the many books my mom read, all
good stories must come to an end, and it is with deep sadness that I write
mom's last page of her long, fulfilling life was on October 19, 2008. She
passed away peacefully at Columbus Residence, Vancouver, her home for the

Vancouver. She made our "little cottage" a home for over 40 years. Mom loved
to garden and knew all the types of flowers and plants as well as all the
birds in her garden. She enjoyed sewing, bridge, music, live theatre and
reading everything from novels to newspapers. And of course, good
conversation. But especially she will be remembered as a strong, accepting,
kind and gracious lady. Doreen was predeceased by her parents, Fred and
Dora, her loving husband, Alex, in 1984, and her dear sister, Gwen, in 1999.

Brenda Song is certainly leaving The Suite Life behind her. The 22-year-old Disney princess spreads her wings with a grown-up role in the hit Internet drama The Social Network, and as if to reinforce this break from her roots, she's posed for a sexy photo-shoot for Nylon magazine.
In addition to the Pamela Littky-lensed pics, Song divulges some intimate tidbits about her personal life, such as the fact that she's currently obsessed with "collecting watches" and would defend her jewelry box at gunpoint, if it came down to it.
Speaking of precious items, hit up our photo gallery to see Song's Nylon pics. Too sexy, or just sexy enough? Let us know in the comments section.

The Media of Poland consist of several different types of communications media including television, radio, cinema, newspapers, magazines, and Internet. Many of the media are controlled by large for-profit corporations who reap revenue from advertising, subscriptions, and sale of copyrighted material.
Media and politics[edit]
During the communist regime in Poland the Stalinist press doctrine dominated and controlled Polish media.[1] This doctrine aimed at getting the support of people and making Polish people "Soviets".[1] The country instituted freedom of press since the fall of communism. However, public TV and radio are still politically controlled, via a state regulatory body called Krajowa Rada Radiofonii i Telewizji (The National Radio and Television Committee), which is similar to CRTC in Canada. It is said that both public and private media are not impartial, and used as means for political propaganda. Various irregularities have been exposed during the investigation by a special parliamentary committee into the Lew Rywin affair.

Traffic on Interstate 30 eastbound was backed up almost 10 miles this afternoon for almost three hours after a Freightliner driven by a man from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico crashed into a bridge around the 53 mile marker on I-30 eastbound and burst into flames.
Jose Valadez was driving the tractor trailer east around 2:30 p.m. when, according to Arkansas State Police, he said he fell asleep and drove into the guardrail leading up to the bridge taking out all 300 feet of it. The Freightliner then crashed into the bridge's parapet and ground along the top of it before turning over on its driver side in the right lane and going up in flames. The crash also set the ditch on each side of the bridge on fire and dropped one of the trucks fuel tanks and 150 gallons of diesel fuel into the creek below. No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
The truck Valadez was driving belongs to TSI Trucking out of Jeffersonville, Indiana.
Witnesses reported that the truck exploded in flames before Valadez jumped out of the truck and ran to safety. He apparently avoided any serious injury.
Firefighters from Fair Hills Volunteer Fire Department and Prescott Fire Department responded to the fire. They were able to get the grass fires out and eventually the semi fire but the truck was completely destroyed from the crash and the blaze.
Bypass Diesel and Wrecker Service retrieved the debris from the creek and cleared debris from the interstate.
After the truck and trailer were moved into the ditch, one lane of I-30 was opened up to try and relieve some of the congestion. Much of the traffic was diverted at Exit 46 in Prescott onto Highway 67. Both lanes were opened back up around 5:25 p.m. but it took some time to get traffic flowing again.
The Arkansas State Police and Arkansas Highway Police were on scene to investigate the crash and manage the traffic jam.
Trooper Bryan Christenson investigated the crash. According to Christenson, Valadez was cited for careless and prohibited driving.

I've used 5 different USB readers on FreeBSD (and linux). One of the
things I've
noticed is that, with the ones with the LED that indicates 'access', a
'dd' process will
finish (exit) a couple seconds before the LED stops flashing.
So, if you're quick, and yank the CF card after dd (or possibly

its possible that the last several sectors won't be correctly written,
and the filesystem

This is especially annoying when you're pushing out 100 cards in an
Anyway, I'll bet if you wait 5 seconds after the 'dd' exits, the
problem goes away.

Families Push for Golden Gate Bridge Safety Net
In response to demands for a suicide prevention net on the Golden Gate Bridge, transit authorities say they're getting close to making that happen.
With the estimated Golden Gate suicide toll at 46 last year, the Bridge Rail Foundation wants the net installed quickly to stop jumpers.
Mary Currie with the Golden Gate Highway and Transportation District says a suicide net has been in the works for several years.
"It would be along both sides of the bridge, both the east and the west sidewalk," Currie said.
But beyond the lengthy planning she says is required, $66 million has to be found to pay for it.
"It does take some time, and now is the time the funding plan really has to come together," she said.
Currie says bridge officials understand the need for the suicide net, but even after the plan is finalized it'll take a couple of years to get installed.
"I jumped off of the Golden Gate Bridge."
Kevin Heinz is among the few survivors that have attempted suicide, and joined people with loved ones who weren't so lucky, like Dana Whitmer who lost her child to a Golden Gate suicide and wants the safety net, which was approved in 2008, to be installed.
"We are responsible for protecting those who are unable to care for themselves, like my son," Whitmer said.
San Francisco's Suicide Prevention organization is hoping the personal pleas will get politicians to overlook the cost and get the net project finished.

I voted against ObamaCare and believe it should be repealed. I believe Congress should repeal and replace ObamaCare with a renewed focus on the health care reform elements most Americans agree on.
Here are just some of the elements Congress could change without needing to spend trillions of dollars on a government takeover of our health care system:
- Ensure patients with pre-existing health conditions are not denied coverage by insurance companies;
- Increase competition by removing the restrictions that prevent insurance plans from being sold across state lines;and
- Enact meaningful tort reforms that prevent windfall judgments for trial lawyers and artificially inflate health insurance rates.

The author of the CALL THE MIDWIFE series returns with a new collection of moving true-life stories from her time as a nurse.
Jennifer Worth's bestselling memoirs of her time as a midwife have inspired and moved readers of all ages.
Now, in IN THE MIDST OF LIFE she documents her experiences as a nurse and ward sister, treating patients who were nearing the end of their lives. Interspersed with these stories from Jennifer's post-midwife career are the histories of her patients, from the family divided by a decision nobody could bear to make, to the mother who comes to her son's adopted country and joins his family without being able to speak a word of English.
IN THE MIDST OF LIFE also gives moving insights not just into Jennifer's life and career, but also of a period of time which seems very different to today's, fast-paced world.
About the Author
Jennifer Worth trained as a nurse at the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading, and was later ward sister at the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital in London, then the Marie Curie Hospital, also in London. Music had always been her passion, and in 1973 she left nursing in order to study music intensively, teaching piano and singing for about twenty-five years. Jennifer died in May 2011 after a short illness, leaving her husband Philip, two daughters and three grandchildren. Her books have all been bestsellers.

Epsom Downs Racecourse has still not discovered why the multi-million pound roof of one of its stands was damaged in high winds in December - just one month before its racing season kicks off.
On Christmas Eve a section of the Duchess's stand's roof - believed to be the size of a tennis court - was ripped off in the bad weather, almost exactly two years after "freak winds" tore off part of the same roof.
After the first incident, the managing director of the racecourse, Rupert Trevelyan, said he had demanded a 'guarantee' from contractors it would never happen again.
At the time, Willmott Dixon, the construction firm responsible for the roof, told the Epsom Guardian it was designed to withstand winds of 47mph.
It later said the roof, which is covered with a skin of metal no thicker than a credit card, was designed to withstand gusts of 70mph.
In January, the company, which built the roof, promised to use its "best people" to ensure it does not happen a third time.
But last week it emerged Willmott Dixon will not be involved in the repair process at all.
Spokesman Andrew Geldard said: "Epsom Downs Racecourse are putting all the repairs through their insurance company. Willmott Dixon will not be involved in the process."
The racecourse's Spring Meeting is due to be held on April 23, with the world-famous Epsom Derby also not too far in the distance on June 7.
Simon Durrant, general manager of the racecourse, said: "After the Christmas storms caused roof damage to our Duchess's Stand we worked with our contractors to introduce a number of control measures to ensure there can be no repeat of the problem.
"Subsequently Epsom Downs Racecourse has continued to operate as a busy events venue and we look forward to welcoming thousands of racegoers for the first race meeting of the year on 23 April.
"A team of experts is undertaking an investigation into the matter. This is ongoing and, based on its findings, we will take any steps necessary to resolve the matter for the long-term."
The Duchess's stand was opened in April 2009 as part of a £38m development at the racecourse.
Still no answers on Epsom racecourse roof damage

Ay man, I can tell thee sic news of Dan as thou never heard'st; he has sitten at his supper hand and neive wi' the deil.
Eleutherius died in the yeare 186, when he had sitten bishop 15 yeares.
Thus came to a period a parliament which had sitten during the whole course of this reign, one year excepted.
Saying: The scribes and the Pharisees have sitten on the chair of Moses.
Nearer in size however, in the mountain fittings of the landscape, are the twin hills of sitten.
I had sitten down by my uncle's fireside, and felt unwilling to rise.
He looks like a man that had sitten up at cards all night, or a stale drunkard wakened in the midst of his sleep.
They are thus like the Latin word "moral," from mores, or the German sittlich, from sitten.
They distinguish only between good and bad mores (sitten und Unsitten), without regard to their origin.
All who had sitten in any illegal high court of justice were disabled from bearing offices.
Old English sittan "to occupy a seat, be seated, sit down, seat oneself; remain, continue; settle, encamp, occupy; lie in wait; besiege" (class V strong verb; past tense sæt, past participle seten), from Proto-Germanic *setjan (cf. Old Saxon sittian, Old Norse sitja, Danish sidde, Old Frisian sitta, Middle Dutch sitten, Dutch zitten, Old High German sizzan, German sitzen, Gothic sitan), from PIE root *sed- (1) "to sit" (see sedentary).
With past tense sat, formerly also set, now restricted to dialect, and sate, now archaic; and past participle sat, formerly sitten. In reference to a legislative assembly, from 1510s. Meaning "to baby-sit" is recorded from 1966.
To sit back "be inactive" is from 1943. To sit on one's hands was originally "to withhold applause" (1926); later, "to do nothing" (1959). To sit around "be idle, do nothing" is 1915, American English. To sit out "not take part" is from 1650s. Sitting pretty is from 1916.

Texas Star Hibiscus
Caring For A Texas Star Hibiscus
If you want a plant that blooms beautiful deep red and burgundy blooms, you should consider keeping a Texas star hibiscus. They are a hardy and easy to grow plant and they can be used to accent any garden area. This plant is a perennial and it has large flowers that appear in late summer to early fall. The Texas star hibiscus is one of the most popular plants in America.
The leaves and stems of this plant are light green in color and these plants can reach up to 8 feet in height. The blooms are a deep red to burgundy color and the flower has 5 petals. Each petal is in an oval shape with a point on the end and the flowers are known to attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
The Texas star hibiscus should be planted in an area that receives plenty of rainfall. It thrives living by a swamp or lake and it can be placed by the side of a small pond. It isn't hard to care for a Texas hibiscus plant but there are things you can do to make sure that the plant stays happy and healthy.
Soil requirements for this plant are mildly acidic to neutral, so you may have to do a soil test to make sure that your soil qualifies. These soil tests can be purchased at your local gardening center. It will show you if you need to add any other type of fertilizer to your soil and this can also benefit the surrounding plants. If you will have to use fertilizer, add a small amount to the soil and mix thoroughly. You should wait around a week before you plant the Texas star hibiscus.
This plant thrives in a partial sun and shade mix. So make sure you place it in an area that has both. When a plant needs both a sun and shade mix, this means that it can benefit from morning sunshine and afternoon shade. Morning sun is not as harsh as the sunlight in the afternoon. So the plant should be placed in an area that has morning light and as the day progresses it should turn into shade.
You cannot over water a Texas star hibiscus. They need a moist rich soil to be healthy and they love to be near water. If you have a water garden or small pond, this is a perfect area for this type of plant. If you do not have a pond of any open body of water, just make sure to keep the plant watered everyday and never let the soil around the plant become dry or sandy. If the plant is deprived of water for long periods of time, you may not get very many blooms or flowers in late summer.
Make sure to space the plants apart when placing them in your garden. You can place each plant a full 4 to 6 feet away from each other. The plant needs a lot of water and nutrients, so spacing them apart gives each plant enough water and nutrients from the soil.
There is one potential problem with owning a Texas star hibiscus. Before the plant produces the signature blooms in late summer, it resembles a marijuana plant. Many law enforcement officials have been fooled by the similarity between the 2 plants and have actually arrested people for owning this plant. While the plant is growing, it may be a good idea to place a small sign stating what type of plant it is, to avoid any confusion. This can also help to prevent problems in the future.

sin(theta)/1-cos(theta) + 1-cos(theta)/sin(theta) = 2csc(theta)
That question makes absolutely no sense.. could someone help me? or lead me in the direction to figuring it out?
(Beside the trig functions is theta)
1+1/cos = tan^2/sec-1
maybe you mean
sin t/(1-cos t) + (1-cos t)/sin t
sin^2 t (1-cos t) (1-cos t)^2
----------------- + ----------------
(1-cos t)(sin t) ______ (1-cos t)(sin t)
numerator only for a while
sin^2 t-sin^2 t cos t +1 -2 cos t+cos^2 t
but sin^2 + cos^2 = 1
2 -sin^2 t cos t - 2 cos t
put denominator back
2 -sin^2 t cos t - 2 cos t
(1-cos t)(sin t)
I think I misunderstood your lack of parentheses but I think you can get the idea
when typing on the computer i can not tell what you mean for numerators or denominators.
sin t/(1-cos t) + (1-cos t)/sin t
sin^2 t ______________ (1-cos t)^2
----------------- + ----------------
(1-cos t)(sin t) ______ (1-cos t)(sin t)
sin^2 t + 1 -2 cos t +cos^2 t
(1-cos t)(sin t)
2 - 2 cos t
(1-cos t) sin t
= 2/sin t
which is csc t
The parenthesis were for the arguments.. My question was how do I verify this indentity
Theta = argument..
I did verify it.
I only did the left side, starting with what you gave me and ending with
2/sin t
which is 2 csc t
which is the right side
Here is how you should have written it
(use t for theta)
sin(theta)/ { 1-cos(theta)} + {1-cos(theta)}/sin(theta) = 2 csc(theta)
The critical point is that afteter you get it all over the LCD (sin t)(1-cos t)
you see that you have sin^2 t+ cos^2 t which is one in the numerator.
I don't understand what you did?
How would x'ing the right side of the plus side by sin give you (1-cos)^2
OH nevermind about that .
okay I get it now, thanks so much. I have another one at the bottom of this question.. could you help me with it? But THANKYOU SO MUCHCHCH! I get it. :--)
Only work on the left side of your equal sign
Your LCD on the left is
(1-cos t)(sin t)
to get that on the bottom of the first term you multiply top and bottom by sin t
to get it on the bottom of the second term you multiply top and bottom by (1 -cos t)
when you multiply (1-cos t)times (1-cos t) you get (1-cos t)^2
1+1/cos = tan^2/sec-1
I will guess (parentheses missing again) you mean
1+1/cos = tan^2/(sec-1 )
use sin and cos everywhere
1+1/cos = (sin/cos)^2/([1/cos]-1 )
multiply top and bottom of right by cos^2
1 + 1/cos = sin^2/(cos - cos^2)
(cos + 1)/cos = sin^2/cos(1-cos)
(cos + 1)/cos = (1-cos^2)/cos(1-cos)
but (1-cos^2)= (1+cos)(1-cos)
(cos + 1)/cos = (1+cos)(1-cos)/cos(1-cos)
(cos + 1)/cos = (1+cos)/cos

Germaine "Jell-O" Wallace gets fifteen years for prostituion ring run through strip clubs
Big pics below.
Back in May 2011, we told about accused procurer Germaine "Jell-O" Wallace, who was arrested along with four women who allegedly helped him run a prostitution ring through high-profile Denver strip clubs. He's now been convicted on a pair of charges that netted him a fifteen-year sentence in the Big House -- a far cry from the big house where he used to live.
Prior to his arrest, as we've reported, Jell-O was livin' large, sharing a $1.3 million mansion with a bevy of beautiful babes and exotic animals like an African wild cat named Goldie.
Kara Laughead.
His housemates in Florida, where he'd lived previously, were considerably less pleased to be there. Wallace and another man were convicted of armed sexual battery and more after luring two Ohio teen girls to the Sunshine State; there, they allegedly kept their victims in a house against their will and forced them into prostitution.
For this crime, Wallace served over seven months in jail, after which he apparently decided to try a variation on the scheme in a new location. Four women later identified as Allison Kelly, Amber Wilson, Teresa Weeks and Kara Laughead, the supposed "mother" of the group, are said to have traveled with Wallace to Colorado. Once here, the quartet would score jobs at clubs such as the Diamond Cabaret and PT's All Nude, then entice women they met on the grind into joining Team Jell-O.

Being part of the squad wasn't easy. Cops believe the women were required to take in a minimum of $500 a night for sex acts commonly performed in private lap-dance booths without the knowledge of club management. At night's end, they'd spread out cash on a table for Wallace to collect.
This bounty allegedly paid the rent on a Castle Rock spread large enough for Wallace and his employees to dirt bike. Also sharing the joint were exotic pets like the aforementioned Goldie and a kinkajou native to rain forests, plus plenty of weapons and a handful of cars, including one sporting a sticker of Bugs Bunny getting fresh with Jessica Rabbit.
Continue for more about the Germaine "Jell-O" Wallace case, including photos and a probable cause statement.
Teresa Weeks.
How'd this skanky dream world come apart? Thanks to the arrest of a twenty-year-old who told police about Jell-O's approach, which she described as being far from benign. She said Laughead told her, "My man will take good care of you" -- but instead, he forced himself on her by threatening violence that closely monitored her time in the posse. While on the job, she told cops, she had to text Wallace each hour to let him know how much money she'd made. She averaged $800 per night.
Not anymore. Wallace was busted in November 2010, and he's since surrendered the home, the guns and more. But the following May, when his name made headlines, he was free on bail, and his attorney, Harvey Steinberg, best known for representing professional athletes in trouble, told the Denver Post, "Don't believe everything you read."
Amber Wilson.
This bravado didn't translate into freedom for Wallace. While the felony pimping charges against Kelly, Wilson, Weeks and Laughead eventually went away, prosecutors maintained their taste for Jell-O. On Monday, about a year and a half after his arrest, he pleaded guilty to pimping and possession of a controlled substance -- some ecstasy was found in his home when it was searched -- and was immediately given a fifteen-year sentence.
At the conclusion of the hearing, Wallace's victim, who now lives out of state, watched as he was led away in handcuffs. Guess the folks at the Colorado Department of Corrections believe there's always room for Jell-O.
Look below to see Wallace's booking photo and the probable cause statement completed at the time of his arrest.

Is Brazil facing a housing bubble?
House prices have soared in Brazil's big cities in the past few years as peoples' salaries have grown and mortgages have become more available.
Eyes are on the country ahead of the World Cup and the Olympics - and not always in a good way, with recent violence in Rio - but is this a bubble that could burst any time soon?
