Grilled Lamb Chops with Ladolemono
Michael Psilakis dresses these luscious lamb chops with ladolemono, a supersimple Greek sauce of lemon juice and olive oil. The sauce is often spooned over fish, but it's delicious on meat and vegetables, too. "This is real Greek cooking," he says.

She was walking along Hampton Dene Road at 9.40am when she was approached by a man who put his hand up her skirt.
He did not speak to her, but when she asked what he was doing, he made a rude gesture with his middle finger.
The suspect is described as being white, slim build, in his 30s, 5ft 9ins tall, with dark hair and a dark beard.
He was scruffy looking and may have been carrying a plastic shopping bag.
Anyone with information should call Detective Constable Moore at Hereford CID on 0300 333 3000, quoting incident reference 539s 3101013.

Employee Plans Compliance Unit (EPCU) - Completed Projects - Project with Summary Reports – Termination Project
Termination Project Overview
The Employee Plans Compliance Unit (EPCU) Termination project began in April 2011. We sent contact letters to a sample of plan sponsors that filed Form 5500 series annual returns showing that they:
- Adopted a resolution to terminate the plan,
- Did not mark their return as the 'final return/report',
- Had not filed a subsequent year return marked the 'final return/report', and
- Still had plan assets at the end of the plan year on the last return filed.
We wanted to learn why those plan sponsors did not file a final Form 5500 showing zero assets at the end of the plan year. In general, a plan sponsor must continue to file a Form 5500 series return for a terminated plan until a Form 5500 marked the 'final return/report' showing zero assets at the end of that plan year is filed.
We asked plan sponsors for information about their terminated plans to learn whether they are complying with their annual reporting and plan qualification requirements.
The responses showed that although most of the plan sponsors in the sample took additional steps to terminate their plan beyond adopting a resolution to terminate, they did not always complete the termination process. Over 75% of the sampled sponsors made errors as part of terminating their plan.
Responses showed plan sponsors made these types of errors as part of their termination process:
- Did not file a final Form 5500 series return.
- Some sponsors did not file their final annual return marked as the 'final return/report' showing zero assets at the end of the plan year. They either forgot or were unaware of the requirement.
- Some sponsors missed filing their annual return for one or more years while their plan was terminating. Being in the process of terminating does not eliminate the Form 5500 series filing requirement.
- Did not actually terminate their plan. Some plan sponsors said they marked the box on line 5a of Schedule H (Financial Information) or Schedule I (Financial Information – Small Plan) incorrectly on the Form 5500 series return indicating they had adopted a resolution to terminate their plan when they had not.
- Mistakenly indicated the plan terminated when it was frozen. A frozen plan is not a terminated plan. In a frozen plan, participants will not accrue any additional benefit (whether because of service or compensation) except under special circumstances. A frozen plan must continue to meet annual information reporting and plan qualification requirements including having the plan sponsor make timely amendments for current law; otherwise, the plan may lose its qualified status for tax benefits.
- Mistakenly used the same plan number from a previous or different plan. Once plan sponsors use a plan number, they should continue to use it for that plan on all future filings with IRS, Department of Labor (DOL) and Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC). Even if the plan sponsor terminated the first plan that used that plan number, the sponsor should not use that plan number again for any other plan.
- Distributed all plan assets but did not mark the Form 5500 series return to show it was the final return. These sponsors filed amended returns to correct the prior filing.
- Distributed all plan assets but did not indicate zero assets at the end of the plan year. These sponsors filed amended returns to correct the prior filing.
- Did not distribute all plan assets as soon as administratively feasible after adopting the amendment to terminate their plan. If there were form or operational defects the sponsor needed to correct, the EPCU requested plan sponsors enter the EP voluntary correction program (VCP). Since a compliance check is not an examination, sponsors can still correct certain form and operational mistakes by using the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (EPCRS).
The reasons for these errors were as follows:
- Taking a much longer time to distribute plan assets because of difficulty locating participants and/or beneficiaries. Many plan sponsors were not aware of the requirements and procedures for locating missing participants and beneficiaries. With the issuance of Revenue Procedure 2012-35, the IRS stopped providing letter-forwarding services and plan sponsors should instead rely on DOL Field Assistance Bulletin 2004-2 for guidance in locating missing individuals.
- Difficulty distributing certain types of plan assets, such as real estate or partnership investments.
- Not aware all plan assets must be distributed for the plan termination to be complete.
- Not aware of the differences between a frozen plan and a terminated plan.
- Not aware there were still assets in the trust.
- Processing errors that occurred before the implementation of the DOL electronic filing system (EFAST).
The EPCU designed the project to learn whether there is compliance regarding plans in which:
- Sponsors adopted a resolution to terminate the plan,
- There was no record of a final Form 5500 series return filed, and
- There were still plan assets at the end of the plan year on the last return filed.
The information from this project helps Employee Plans have a better understanding of the qualified plan sector and assists with development of tools, guidance and enforcement efforts.
The project goals were to determine if plan sponsors who indicated they had adopted a resolution to terminate their plan:
- Completed the termination process,
- Were in compliance with Revenue Ruling 89-87 regarding wasting trusts,
- Filed a final Form 5500 series return, and
- Distributed all trust assets, or
- Had processing errors of their Form 5500 series return.
As long as a qualified retirement plan and related trust are in existence, the plan sponsor needs to take certain actions in order to keep the plan qualified. These actions include ensuring that the plan complies with all of the plan qualification requirements of Internal Revenue Code section 401(a) and related Regulations.
Plan sponsors must continue to comply with the annual information reporting and plan qualification requirements until they:
- Terminate the plan,
- Distribute all trust assets, and
- File a final Form 5500 series return.
If there is noncompliance, then the potential exists for plan disqualification, discrimination in favor of highly compensated employees, abusive tax avoidance and administrative penalties.
Plan sponsors must distribute all plan assets as soon as administratively feasible after the date of termination. Generally, a distribution which is not completed within one year following the date of plan termination specified by the employer will be presumed not to have been made as soon as administratively feasible unless facts and circumstances show otherwise (Rev. Rul. 89-87). If all assets are not distributed as soon as administratively feasible, based upon the facts and circumstances of the particular case, the plan is considered an ongoing plan and must meet the requirements of IRC section 401(a) in order to continue its qualified status.
When all plan assets are distributed, the sponsor must file a final Form 5500 series return. This is required even if the sponsor was exempt from filing a Form 5500-EZ (the annual return of a one-participant retirement plan) in previous years.

Reviews for this host's other properties
Very nice apartment. Good location close to resturants and metro. Everything worked smohthly with the landlady. only 1 thing to clomplain about we had big trouble locking 1 of the doors
Really nice apartment, clean and tidy and very central. However, it was much noise from the street (night clubs around and below) the night between Friday-Saturday, but otherwise we are not disturbed. Got sadly, last night visited by a man who persecuted us when we got home and coldly came into the apartment and took a purse with money, passports, phones, etc.. The police were very helpful and on the spot after 20 minutes.
Jättefin lägenhet, rent och snyggt och väldigt centralt. Dock var det mycket oljud från gatan (nattklubbar runtom och under) natten mellan fre-lördag men annars stördes vi inte. Fick tråkigt nog sista kvällen besök av en man som förföljde oss då vi kom hem och som helt kallt kom in i lägenheten och tog en handväska med pengar, pass, telefoner osv. Polisen var mycket hjälpsam och på plats efter 20 min.
During our stay in Budapest, we have used an excellent apartment Raday Utca. Very spacious, clean and fully equipped. In short, excellent. We like to come here again.

Wonderful central location. The apartment was extremely hot despite all the fans. Should install a cooling fan.
Underbart och centralt läge. Lägenheten var dock extremt varm trots alla fläktar. Borde installeras en kylfläkt.

First heard Hilary Weeks just recently at Time Out for Women-Phoenix. Loved her. Loved the backstories she told for the songs she performed. Hope she returns to TOFW-Phoenix regularly! The song she sang there and on this CD that made me (and I think many around me!) tear up is also the title of this CD: IF I ONLY HAD TODAY. Really makes one appreciate and want to be with their loved ones. And I love every song on this CD. Heart-touching! Just ordered a bunch of this CD for special women in my life! Thank you, Hilary! (Oh, and I liked her so much, I bought one of each of the Hilary Weeks CDs being sold at the event, and have been listening to them repeatedly since.)

The very first time I listened to a clip I knew I had to buy this album. When I received it I put it in my portable CD player and listened as I took my morning walk. I cried with every song. I felt she knew what my life had been like with it's ups and downs. She expressed my feelings for the Savior and Heavenly Father so well. I am going to give this one to others for Christmas.

I enjoyed Hilary's performance at Time Out For Women,in Alaska! Hilary's music definitely touches your heart, and invites the spirit of the Lord.
Because this music invites the spirit, it is a powerful tool that we can use to strengthen ourselves and those around us. This music helps to keep our thoughts on a higher ground, and invites us to do good.
This has become one of my favorite cds. I highly recommend it as a must, for your inspirational tool collection!!

I bought this CD after hearing Hilary Weeks perform it at the Spokane TOFW. "If I Only Had Today," is very tender and close to the heart for me, as my mom was with my sisters and I and dying of cancer at the time. I love how inspiring and touching the music on this album is. I feel my Heavenly Fathers love and my mothers love as I listen to the words. "When You Least Expect It," hit me hard because I found out I was pregnant with my first baby right after my mom died. Heavenly Father hears our prayers.....this CD was the answer to one of my prayers.
By Jennie, Submitted on 2015-02-25
This c.d. is a must have! The lyrics are inspirational and uplifting. Hilary has a way of touching your soul through her music and inviting the Spirit in a way that no other artist I have heard can do. All the songs on this c.d. are amazing and are sure to lift your soul and brighten your Spirit.
By michelle, Submitted on 2015-02-25
It is true. Like it says in the song "Reaching" ...."there's more to come, So when we taste of the Divine, it leaves us hungry every time." .... that perspective WOW!! I love it! The whole CD is just as fabulous!
I hope Hillary can read these reviews and catch a glimpse of the good she does for those of us still trying to understand our Savior's love for each one of us, individually! You Can FEEL it in the words and music!

Hilary Weeks is one of my favorite artists. I just listened to her new cd and I felt the spirit so strongly. When I have her music on in my home or in my car, I feel just a little bit closer to my Heavenly Father and Savior. I am so grateful for her wonderful gift of music and for being so willing to share that gift with all of us.

Here's proof that last year's pop culture-politics parody is this year's election reality. And it begs the question: Has Hillary Clinton's campaign been ripping off spoof websites in search of inspiration?
Obscure movie satire blog The Studio Exec last year published a spoof entry posting that Back to the Future was Hillary Clinton's favorite movie.
In an entry published by "Chad Sternberger," "Hillary Clinton" wrote: "Back to the Future is undoubtedly the finest time travel movie ever made….What if the fifties could learn from the eighties? the film seems to ask. In my own situation, sure there are mistakes I wish I could rectify that would change who I am today, but at the same time I am who I am because of the road that brought me here."
"She" continued: "It's also interesting to see how prescient the film is. Middle Eastern terrorists are a risk, but so is the local bully Biff."
(Hillary's favorite movies are actually The Wizard of Oz, Casablanca and Out of Africa.)
Fast forward to this week and Clinton releases a new campaign attack ad that uses Back to the Future as well as The Karate Kid and Mean Girls in a bid to highlight Donald Trump as a bully.
Chad Sternberger got there first. (Although Back to the Future screenwriter Bob Gale did also claim last year that Trump was an inspiration for Biff in the first place): "You watch Part II again and there's a scene where Marty confronts Biff in his office and there's a huge portrait of Biff on the wall behind Biff," Gale told the Daily Beast "and there's one moment where Biff kind of stands up and he takes exactly the same pose as the portrait? Yeah."
The Studio Exec has also predicted that Donald Trump will make Blurred Lines the national anthem and that Barack Obama will replace Trevor Noah as the host of Comedy Central's The Daily Show.
There are a lot of bullies in this world. The last thing we need is one in the White House. pic.twitter.com/M0owOglPjy

text: 5)Contact your local family child care associationand ask if you can join or at least attend the meetings. 6)Based on what you've learned, define the type of program you want to offer, describe how it will meet the needs of families, and start telling everyone about it! We hope that this book will help you take these steps for your business. Whether you are just starting out or have been in business for many years, these basic steps will be helpful. About This Book This book contains a wealth of marketing tips and suggestions, but not all family child care providers have the same need for these ideas. If you are just starting out, you may need to fill four to six openings, whereas if you have been in business awhile you probably only need to fill one or two openings at a time. Do not attempt to try all of the marketing ideas in this book. If you are looking to fill one opening, start small. See page 112 for 10 low-cost marketing tips. It is not necessary to make extraordinary efforts at marketing. Many providers gain new clients based strictly on word-of-mouth from their current clients. Such providers should focus on marketing to current clients (see chapter 4). Other providers may need to spend much more time and money on marketing and will want to use more of the ideas in this book. Many of the marketing ideas presented here may be best carried out by family child care associations and other support networks. You may want to present some of these ideas to your group for them to implement on behalf of its members. This book is meant to be used selectively over a long period of time. This book can help you if you are just starting out or if you have many years of experience. It discusses how to market to prospective clients (chapter 3) and current clients (chapter 4). It includes many ideas about how to promote your program if you have little money (chapter 5) or if you have a lot of money (chapter 6). It identifies the key organizations to approach that can help you market (chapter 7). It has a lengthy discussion of how to set your rates (chapter 8). It also offers some answers to questions about how to compete against a fancy new child care center and against unregulated providers (chapter 9). Finally, the Appendix contains samples of forms and checklists you can use as part of your marketing program. Not every idea in this book will appeal to every provider. We encourage providers to think carefully about how much marketing is necessary for their business. We do not encourage providers to adopt dozens of new marketing tips at the expense of spending less time caring for children. Not every idea will work in your community. Sometimes the same marketing idea that failed this year will succeed next year. This book does not offer an in-depth marketing plan for your business. It is meant to be a 6 FAMILYCHILDCAREMARKETINGGUIDE

You can use all sort of plugins ( depend on the license ), but you can't bundle it into your themes files. You can use script mentioned by @digitalimpact to allow user to install the required plugins.
I don't use TGM plugin but I think it requires that you bundle the plugin files into the theme?
Also with TGM, the users will usually end up with two copies of the plugin on their server, one in the theme folder, and one in the plugins folder. I don't think that's a very good thing.
Guys, seriously? This is not a game. Quit acting like 10 year old with a calculator…
I like purple, a lot:
I saw on line 43/44 that you're querying the db for attachment id, so you can update the metadata with the new resized image dimensions later? Would it be a problem if for example, the author would like to provide a custom input field for e.g. slider, meta box, where users may freely insert whatever size for the image instead of the original URL?
PixelBook said
you resize the image once. on the next request you check if the resized image exists

Anything better?
Maybe he doesn't like the fact that the shortcodes are outside the page. I know that this kpet me from using it..@the guy with the green leaf avatar .. i am sorry for flagging your post.. I did it by mistake but on your question, i have a theory about this.. Either they copy the code from one and other(PHP is GPL so one would just have to replace JS and CSS), either they are following the same routine(i am building my own CC now, and it will work like the others that you see on here)..
@SyamilMJ – I am talking noob, I am no WP geek at this point, I still do Joomla big time. I felt people somehow don't want to stick with it, perhaps they want some alternatives or maybe your licensing is not perfectly suitable. Some could perhaps have problems understanding documentation (from my experience people would rather die than read it). My personal problem mostly is this: I want to do it myself but how can I do it without a proper documentation on how it was built and how it works.
Ruben here is an example developer who used your builder to learn and develop his own and I believe that is the main trend in the market. I would do the same. With other words your code shows limited possibility at the first sight, I would suggest to do some research on what's best to have so that it would satisfy the needs of a larger amount of developers / site owners because let's face it any code has it's flaws of design (usability, flexibility).Let's put it this way: why not making a tutorial on how to build it, I think this will make people like it and actually use it because they could understand how to customize it and make it better for a real production site. I think I may do the same, I have a ton of custom work for WP already but nothing seems suitable with your builder in my eyes. How can I merge my work with yours?
I provide free support for the plugin. And I also have a theme that demonstrates what the plugin is capable of doing. Why would you need a tutorial when all you have to do is ask – https://github.com/sy4mil/Aqua-Page-Builder/issues?state=open

CARLSBAD -- About a dozen volunteers spent Saturday morning clearing trash and non-native plants from the southern shore of the Batiquitos Lagoon just east of the La Costa Avenue Caltrans Park-N-Ride.
The cleanup, organized by the Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation, is held the first Saturday of each month from 9 a.m. to noon and is open to the public.
The Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation, enhancement, and protection of Batiquitos Lagoon. The lagoon in Carlsbad is one of the few remaining tidal wetlands on the Southern California coast.
The goal of Saturday's cleanup was to prepare the south shore nesting area of the California least tern and western snowy plover, endangered bird species that return to the lagoon each February. Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation President Fred Sandquist said there are about five such nesting areas around the lagoon, most on the east end.
After finding the nesting area in good shape, Sandquist instructed volunteers to concentrate on removing non-native plants and invasive species such as salt cedar trees, arundo donax (giant reed) and pampas grass from the area. The volunteers spent the majority of the morning cutting down a massive salt cedar tree just east of the Park-N-Ride lot.
Next month, Sandquist said, the volunteers will put up a fence around the one of the islands used as a nesting area by the least terns so that the chicks don't fall into the lagoon and to make it more difficult for predators to get to them.
Sandquist said the habitat restoration is conducted at different locations around the lagoon each month.
"We just pick a place," he said. "We've been focusing a lot on the north shore trail."
Sandquist said the number of people who come out to help cleanup the lagoon each month varies.
"Sometimes we may get three or four, sometimes 30," he said.
Aside from a core group of regulars, Sandquist said many college students volunteer, since Environmental Science majors at Palomar College and Cal State San Marcos receive extra credit for attending the monthly lagoon cleanup. Local companies such as Invitrogen have also sent employees to help out, said Sandquist, and children are also part of the mix.
"We get a few families that come down," said Sandquist. "It's really nice to see."
As Sandquist sawed limbs off the salt cedar tree with a chainsaw, Carlsbad residents and first-time volunteers Judy Miller and her husband, Gene, cut down a patch of dried weeds that posed a fire hazard. Miller said her own backyard in Aviara served as her motivation for volunteering.
"We have a habitat behind our house, and we want that to be taken care of," said Miller. "The town takes care of that, so we decided we should help out, too. We love nature, we love to see the animals."
Another first-time volunteer was Mike Grim, senior planner for the city of Carlsbad.
"I'm here as a citizen volunteer," said Grim, who hauled tree limbs to and from a trash bin.
Grim, who recently took over the city's Habitat Management Plan, said he knows how understaffed agencies such as the Fish and Game Department are, and how important it is to preserve the natural habitat.
"Without helping lagoons, the whole ecosystem will deteriorate," said Grim. "I appreciate the work that foundations like this do. It's great that there are volunteer organizations to help with stuff like this, otherwise it wouldn't get done."
Volunteering is nothing new to Grim, who also volunteers with San Diego Earth Works.
"I've been doing a lot of this for 15 years," he said. "I love the environment."
Nearby, Carlsbad resident Russ Whitman bundled branches as Sandquist cut them off the salt cedar tree. Whitman, who has volunteered with the Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation for more than five years, said he is a regular at the Saturday morning sessions.
"I just always have liked nature and I hate to see our landscape destroyed," he said.
Whitman said he would like to see more people come out and volunteer each Saturday.
"This is a great way to keep involved, meet people and feel like you're doing something for the community," he said.

Salt Lake County will squeeze millions of dollars from its budget and eliminate nearly 100 staff positions -- but chances are, you won't notice it.
Seniors still will get hot lunches under the Meals on Wheels program. New libraries still will be built in Millcreek, Magna, West Jordan and Herriman. And the Salt Lake County Sheriff's Office still will get the money to reopen a second jail in South Salt Lake.
Even so, Salt Lake County will cut $17.4 million from its budget --- close to 4 percent from every government office -- to keep its finances afloat during this recession. Without immediate spending cuts, the county warns that it could face a $50 million shortfall by the end of 2010.
So county leaders will slash $3 million from the sheriff (but still open Oxbow Jail), pull $788,000 from the district attorney and pluck $7.5 million from the mayor's portfolio that includes agencies such as Aging Services, Public Works and Parks and Recreation.
The Salt Lake County Council adopted those reductions Tuesday.
Most of the staff reductions will be achieved by not filling vacant posts, though officials confirmed they will lay-off a half-dozen people.
"Not a fun time for anyone around here," Councilman Michael Jensen said, "especially for the next year and half or so."
The pain of the county's penny-pinching will stay mostly in-house. The impact on programs affecting you, the taxpayer?
"Really, nothing," Mayor Peter Corroon said. "We are just trying to do it through efficiency. We have asked everybody to tighten their belts and not cut programs."
Yet the slimmed-down spending plan cuts awfully close to the bone for some agencies: the Recorder's Office, for example. Last year, Recorder Gary Ott took a $1 million hit and now he'll have to trim $214,000 more.
"I can do this one," said Ott. "But the next one, I'll have to fire people."
Yet county officials insist that the savings are necessary, particularly with sales tax revenues slipping faster than expected.
"The quicker we start doing this," Corroon wrote in an e-mail to employees Monday, "the easier it will be."
Those cost-cutting measures mean an overall reduction in the county's work force through attrition, no government contributions to employees' 401(k) accounts and, quite possibly, a wage freeze going into 2010. At this point, the mayor has not proposed furloughs, although he told employees this week that he would consider unpaid time off as an alternative to lay-offs.
Bruised by a recessionary economy, Salt Lake County will cut $17.4 million from its 2009 budget. Here's the breakdown:
Assessor $266,006
Auditor $367,870
Clerk $194,386
Council $212,000
District Attorney $788,277
Employee Service Reserve $179,234
Mayor's Office/Operations $7,544,521
Recorder $213,993
Sheriff $3,040,919
Surveyor $143,084
Suspended 401(k) contribution $3,100,000
Treasurer $190,868
Total: $17,441,158*
* Total includes $1.2 million in jail reimbursement funds that the county hadn't expected to receive from the state.

Now a question about dairy. We eat kefir often because of intense yeast issues in both dd and I. Is kefir on the do not eat list? I know its still dairy but does the fermenting process get rid of the issue?
A good quality, dairy/soy-free probiotic may help in the interim. I make kimchee (napa cabbage, quite mild in flavor, plus shredded carrots, green onions, a little radish, and some garlic and ginger, it's way yummy--it's fermented) and it does a good job getting DD's gut back in balance. When we eat it regularly (we tend to run out, we eat so much) I can see improvement in her poop.
Has anyone noticed a change in bathroom habits once going GFCF? DD vasilates between seriously constipated to well the other extreme (she's been this way forever). This is one of the issues that originally made us look at a gluten allergy (along with every other symptom of the list).
Anyone have a few favored recipes they are willing to share? We are big into bread and dairy around here. I think I will be at a loss until I can kick my brain into the right mode.
Oh and sorry... I wanted to say that typically going GFCF for behavioral issues relates to the protein peptides in casein and gluten. If they are not broken down by the digestive system into individual amino acids, the peptides can create a morphine like high in susceptible individuals.
Thanks for the replies.
By loosely following I meant we have taken all the fruits and veggies out that have the salicylates, dropped milk, and all foods with colorings and preservatives. I haven't been overly attentive if something has a trace of milk in it. I will go gung ho starting this weekend though as this week as been less than ideal.
Is buying the materials from Feingolds site worth the money? Can I find the same info online for free/cheaper? I am not opposed to spending the money I just want it to be something that really will help her.

Someone said that Feingold is not up to date. That's not true at all. And the salicylates listed by Feingold are those that bother most of the people. Salicylates are in nearly every fruit or vegetable. If you don't get success, then you eliminate more.

thanks for this thread! my 9 year old is beginning the process of being diagnosed and we had a MAJOR meltdown today about 90minutes after some red food dye exposure. i just requested the feingold book from the library and hope we start seeing some improvement. she was a danger to herself and her sisters today and this can't go on. and it's extremely frustrating to know that she's completely out of her own control.
That was me. Comparing FAILSAFE Diet research done by Anne Swain at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital several decades after Ben Feingold's, reveals more fruits and veggies with higher salicylate content than the Feingold Diet excludes even in Stage 1.
and I think The FAILSAFE Diet also has more additives flagged than Feingold does. It's really too bad these researchers cannot work together.
To the OP, one of the secrets is to eliminate lowfat milk, b/c the preservative BHT that is in the vitamin A - retinyl palmitate, is not on the label. Use whole milk only which has natural vitamin A and doesn't need the toxic synthetic added.

WASHINGTON -- A turret fell from the main building at St. Gregory's University in Shawnee, Okla., during a rare earthquake the night of Nov. 5.
The 5.6-magnitude quake also damaged the other three turrets that sat atop the 98-year-old building. All of the turrets will have to be taken down, said university president D. Gregory Main.
Classes were canceled Nov. 7, as most of the classrooms at the 500-student school are in that building, Main added. The building also houses the college's library, administrative offices, president's office, and admissions and registrar offices. Classes were to resume Nov. 8.
"We are scrambling to find other places on campus" to conduct classes, Main told Catholic News Service in a Nov. 7 phone interview.
Main was calling from outside the university's cafeteria because the building was closed to protect students and staff from getting injured. "Any of those (turrets) could fall down at any time," Main said.
He added the turrets stand 24 feet in height from the roofline. "And they are masonry construction. There's no reinforcement. That's why it fell," Main said.
The building at the Benedictine-sponsored university had originally been used to house a Benedictine monastery and an art museum. Both now have separate buildings on the campus.
Main said the only other damage sustained by St. Gregory's in the quake were of "a few broken windows, exterior windows when a few (turret) bricks bounced after hitting the ground."
While there was no cost estimate for the damage, Main said he expected it to be low. However, removing the turrets "needs to be started in the next couple of days. I've got to put this building back in service," he said.
In the temblor, a section of highway buckled, and, according to Main, "a few buildings were badly damaged, closer to the epicenter" 20 miles from Shawnee. But St. Gregory's damage, he said, was "the biggest, most visible damage, especially the iconic building that it is."
The quake, which hit at 10:53 p.m. local time, was centered in Sparks, Okla., about 44 miles northeast of Oklahoma City. People as far away as Wisconsin said they could feel the quake. A second, 4.7-magnitude earthquake struck a few hours after the first Nov. 6, with its epicenter about 50 miles east of Oklahoma City, and aftershocks continued through the weekend.
On the East Coast, parts of a statue of Our Lady of Lourdes damaged in a quake that rocked that part of the country Aug. 23 were removed Nov. 3 from atop a New Jersey Catholic hospital. The 30-foot, 15-ton statue has stood on top of Our Lady of Lourdes Medical Center since 1949. The quake caused sections of it to shift several inches, resulting in chipping and vertical cracking.
The Camden, N.J., hospital said that since the quake, the statue had been secured with scaffolding while a decision was made on the best way to fix it. Three sections of the statue were brought down to be repaired, and the remaining sections also will be fixed.
In Washington at The Catholic University of America, Marist Hall remains closed because it sustained some structural damage in the August quake. Facilities for the School of Library and Information Science and various academic departments housed at Marist have been temporarily relocated to other buildings.

Trolling on the net is far from a new thing. Trolls have existed for at least 20 years, way back when there was no WWW and people used Usenet newsgroups to tell their stories. Usenet was an anarchic, riotous form of communication, a bit like facebook only with no restrictions on the length of a post nor the concept of "friends". Instead, Usenet was grouped by topic, from the most esoteric computer science to religion, parenting, hobbies, and science. Back in the Usenet days, those of us on the 'net were either scientists of some sort, grad students, or techno-geeks in high tech. There were no private accounts, you had to be associated with a university or business that had internet access. This was before AOL came into existence and led to the downfall of Usenet by bringing on millions of the internet unwashed.
One of the quaint features of Usenet were the trolls, people that liked to post outrageous things because they were so outlandish as to bring out the kooks and the uninitiated. Trolls were the people that posted any response diametrically opposed to the original post, just to see what would happen. An example were the childfree trolls that would go onto the main parenting group, misc.kids, and start "breeder" wars. Other examples were people that called anyone not Christian an infidel, reamed out cooks posting recipes calling them plagiary, etc. You get the idea. Trolling was a game, people did it just to score a reaction, and certain people earned lifetime notoriety for their trolling.
I'm not a bit embarrassed to admit that a big group of women including myself created a troll post just to see what the reaction would be. We only did it once, and it was one of the funniest things I've ever done. Many of the guilty are my friends on facebook today, lo these 15 years later!
What trolling is not: disagreeing with someone on the internet. Honest disagreement is the life's blood of the 'net. How boring would the 'net be if everyone agreed with each other? If a poster calls out another poster on their blog, on facebook or twitter, and says "your last post was bullshit for the following cogent reasons..." this is NOT trolling. This is disagreeing. And disagreement is fine. In fact, it should be encouraged. How do we learn anything from each other if we all agree? Disagreement stirs up thought, adding different perspectives that are just as valid as the original post.
What bothers us long time Usenet and then web users is when a cult is formed, and you must agree with the cult leader or you are ostracized and called a troll. The twitter example that I mentioned above is exactly this. Anna Veile had the audacity (thank goodness) to question Dooce on her recent trip to Bangladesh. Now, to tell the absolute truth here, I'm a big fan of both posters. I like Anna because she is not afraid to speak out when she sees hypocrisy and she is so NOT a fan of the blogher ad network, like me. I like Dooce because I think she's a decent writer and chronicler of her life, even though I often take quiet umbrage at the constant traveling, and the money, money, money she's so happy to let us all know she's making from blogging. I also vastly dislike the opinion of Dooce and her husband that she founded mommyblogging and without her, we would all be silenced. Um, no. Not so. See Usenet above. Most of us were writing on the net when she was barely out of diapers.
Anna tends to call a spade a spade and she deeply embarrassed BlogHer be laying bare the joke that is their ad network. She was 100% correct in her assessment of how BlogHer lied to their network affiliates, cutting payments in order to cover very large blogs like Confessions of a Pioneer Woman. Like multi-millionaire Ree needed more money.
Every time Anna posts anything that crosses the refined sensibilities of the A-list bloggers, she is called a troll. Which is insane and just proves how ignorant these women are about their internet history. Anna runs a very professional site and is well regarded despite the name calling. She appears a lot more professional than does Heather Armstrong, who thinks farts are so darn funny (which they are if you're 5, but at 35, not so much) and feels the need to cover her dog's penis sheath with a "privacy patch" in every photo. Mature? No way, Jose.
Anna also covers blog news, occasionally breaking stories before the actual blogger has. Like Her Bad Mother, who is leaving her native Canada behind and taking a real job at Babble at the end of the summer. The queen of Woe is Me going to the most obnoxious parenting site on the web? It's a match made in heaven. Good luck to her in NYC. Guess her shilling for BlogHer is finally a thing of the past. Meanwhile, she's been hinting about "big changes coming but I can't possibly say what or when" for months now. Big deal. She got a job. We should all keel over and faint? Blergh.
But you can bet your last dollar that Anna's reveal is going to cause a huge volcano of hand-wringing and angst-filled posts. Anna is a reporter, and this is what reporters do. You don't like it? Move somewhere where bloggers are sanctioned and the free press is just a dream. Here in the USA we get to say what we want, even if you don't agree. And that is NOT trolling. Stumble It! JBlog Me

Florida has many well-known state symbols, but one of the more recent additions is the State Wildflower, tickseed, known by botanists as Coreopsis. The Coreopsis species are commonly referred to as tickseeds because the flat small fruit (achene) is ovalish to round and has two short spines that give it a buglike appearance. Tickseed flowers generally have eight showy ray flowers ("petals" ) that are usually toothed at their ends. All tickseeds in Florida, except Swamp Tickseed, have yellow ray flowers. There are 13 tickseed species that occur in Florida, two of which do not occur in any other part of the world.
Some Coreopsis are annuals, and others are perennials. They all form short clumps of leaves that grow close to the ground, and at the right time of year, the shoot up a flower stalk with many attractive blooms. The flowers can be cut and brought indoors. And outside, they are attractive to butterflies. After they fade, the seed are enjoyed by birds. As with most flowering plants, plenty of sunshine is needed to produce many colorful blooms.
Plants and seed are becoming more available. A growers cooperative has been formed to encourage the marketing of these native plant materials. A group wildflower seed producers have formed a cooperative,the Florida Wildflower Seed and Plant Growers Association, Inc.
According to their website, they are cooperating with the marketing of wildflower seed and plants to supply the demand from the Florida Department of Transportation and other public entities that wish to beautify our state's roadsides.
Research on seed production methods has been fueled by UF Extension Specialist Dr. Norcini and is also a product of the Florida wildflower license plate funds. The sales of Florida Wildflower auto tags has generated more than a half million dollars for this work. The Florida Federation of Garden Clubs is also encouraging the sale of these increasingly popular specialty license plates and is working with the Florida Department of Transportation to get more seed into the hands of our road management crews.
Photo shown is a coreopsis hybrid: 'Crème Brulee'. Hybrid of verticillata and grandiflora; foliage and form are similar to 'Moonbeam' but habit is improved;

If the Times or Abramson, or both, is fibbing here, the credibility of the newspaper of record is now suspect.
"They were all adults, at least to the best of my knowledge… Some could have theoretically been fibbing about it," he said.

For press inquiries or to schedule an interview with the Attorney General please contact:
503-378-6002 or firstname.lastname@example.com
About Ellen F. Rosenblum
Attorney General Hardy Myers today announced a $5 million settlement agreement with an Ohio-based herbal products company resolving a 2005 multi-state lawsuit alleging the company mislead Oregonians about the effectiveness of its supplements and conducted an illegal marketing tactic known as a "negative option," causing consumers to be automatically billed for more shipments of product after trying a so-called "free" offer.
Named in a stipulated general judgment filed today in Marion County Circuit Court are Steve Warshak of Cincinnati, Ohio and his dietary supplement firms Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, Lifekey Inc., Boland Naturals Inc., Warner Health Care, and Wagner Nutraceuticals ("Berkeley"). The defendants do not admit violation of law.
Under the judgment, Berkeley must provide restitution to all Oregon consumers, who as of today, have unresolved complaints on file with the offices of the Oregon and Ohio Attorneys General, the Better Business Bureau, and Berkeley. The defendants also must provide consumer restitution for all consumers, who file complaints with those same offices within 90 days.
Consumers wanting to file complaints with the Oregon Attorney General's may call his consumer hotline at (503) 378-4320 (Salem area only), (503) 229-5576 (Portland area only) or toll-free at 1-877-877-9392. Justice is online at www.doj.state.or.us.
The lawsuit alleged that when consumers made an initial order of a "free" 30-day trial of dietary supplement pills, Berkeley representatives failed to tell them they would receive and be automatically billed for additional shipments -- a marketing tactic known as a "negative option feature" -- and often made it difficult to cancel shipments or get their money back.
Berkeley also attracted customers with advertisements resembling those for genuine pharmaceutical drugs. The companies' products include pills claiming to address numerous physical ailments, most notably Enzyte, a pill to enhance sexual function in men, advertised in television spots featuring a character named "Smiling Bob." The company also makes an array of herbal products that claim increased libido for women and such things as better night vision, memory recall, weight control and energy.
"Berkeley's conduct was egregious and more than 100 Oregon consumers agreed with us by writing complaints to various consumer protection agencies and the Better Business Bureau," Myers said. "This settlement ought to wipe that smile off Bob's face."
Under the judgment, Oregon, as a lead litigating state, will receive $700,000, half of which will be suspended if the defendants make required payments. Other states that filed similar settlements today in their state courts include Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, as well as the District of Columbia. Other states, including California, Illinois, Kansas, Mississippi and Vermont, are expected to file similar settlements soon. The total payment to all states will be $5 million, one half of which is suspended if the company makes all required payments.
In the settlement, the defendants must abide by the following:

DAY nurseries across Wirral will no longer be run by the council as part of plans to save £772,000 a year.
Nurseries in Liscard, Birkenhead, Claughton and Rock Ferry will be taken over by neighbouring schools - if the move is approved by the borough's ruling cabinet on Thursday – but will only operate during term time.
In a report to Thursday's meeting, the authority admits that New Brighton's Day Nursery is the only one to have received a confirmed offer from outside organisations.
Discussions are still ongoing over the future of Miriam Place day nursery, based at Bidston St James Centre, who have "expressed a tentative expression of interest" in developing a social, not commercial model for the two, three and four year old education on offer".
Although parents pay for their children to use the council's nursery service, it still requires a £772,000 a year subsidy from the council.
The plans, agreed last year as part of the council's budget options, will enable that money to be saved by removing the need for the council to subsidise the service.
Councillor Tony Smith, Wirral's cabinet member for children and family services, said: "As there is already provision across the private, voluntary and independent sectors, and at this time of considerable pressure on budgets, we as a Council are proposing to stop delivering this service.
"We will support any family affected by working with them to manage the transition to another provider. This will include drawing up individual plans in partnership with each parent or carer, and preparing contingencies to enable us to provide support if we need to.
"Staff affected have been briefed and we are asking schools to ring fence posts of a similar nature for those whose jobs are at risk."
The nurseries are New Brighton Day Nursery, Honey Bees Day Nursery, Reach High Day Nursery, Miriam Place, Windmill Day Nursery and Little Ferries Day Nursery.
Last June, the council's ruling cabinet approved plans to outsource day nursery provision to mitigate against budget cuts.
The council asked interested providers to offer the service for a five year period but of the 65 suppliers who registered an interest, only two completed applications were submitted.
Of those, only the application to run New Brighton Day Nursery, developed by staff, was taken forward.
If this move is endorsed by the cabinet on June 19, a target date for transfer for that nursery has been set for September 1, 2014.
The day nursery service delivered by the council was originally supported by grant funding made available through the national Neighbourhood Nursery Initiative and Surestart.
Neither of those funding streams remain available today, leaving a shortfall of £722,000 to be met by the council.
Local authorities' responsibilities for childcare has also changed, from ensuring childcare is available, to one of offering a brokering service to support families to find and secure childcare.
Families in receipt of government funding for two, three and four year old children will still continue to be able to access nursery provision elsewhere in the borough, but instead of accessing council-run nurseries, those affected will be given support instead to find alternative providers in local schools, or in the private, voluntary and independent sector.
Wirral's ruling cabinet will discuss the move at Wallasey Town Hall on Thursday.
DAY nurseries across Wirral will no longer be run by the council as part of plans to save £772,000 a year.

I asked the question about "why not a web-based forum" several months
ago and got lit up like a christmas tree ;-). I got flamed so bad, I
was smoking for days.
Honestly I have come to understand why certain indiviuals like email
vs web based forums...email just arrives in your inbox. No need to go
to a forum and you can delete what you don't want to respond to. To
some degree (since I got a gmail account) I don't mind the list server
that much anymore. With my gmail account, I can read messages from any
However searching for a solution isn't as flexible as using a web
based forum. I am not saying it can't be done, it's just a lot easier
using a web based forum from my experience.
But If I had any influence at all, I would like to see a web based forum.
The list server for m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch seems to be a "catch-all"
mailing list. Everything from n00b questions to hacking the
functionality of m0n0wall, all on one list. I can only imagine the
bandwidth consumption for outgoing mail to everyone on the list.
If a web based forum were made available:
The theme for the forum could be built to minimize graphics making it
very fast with minimal bandwidth.
Categories and sub-categories could be setup to allow (ideally) the
ability to search for a solution before posting.
+--FW Rules
+--Captive Portal
Unofficial Enhancements
Threads for a particular subject could potentially be indefinite...ie
Support for wireless and pptp. I have seen many similar posts for the
same type of support requested, often duplicated. I can only assume
this is the case because the original poster was unsuccesful at
searching first.
You will never eliminate redunadant posting, but if you setup
categories, you could aleast create a "folder" of likely place to
search first before posting.
Now I'm not complaining. I really appreciate all the help I have
gotten in the past AND all the effort on the part of those making the
list server possible. I am just offering my humble opinion.

The war in Syria threatens to tear the region apart along sectarian lines, leading to a sharp rise in violent extremism from within both the radical Sunni and Shiite camps. Syria's neighbors bear the immediate brunt of the conflict, as they struggle to contend with the steady stream of refugees flowing across their borders. But the repercussions of the war in Syria are being felt far beyond Syria's borders. Last week, two events drove this point home for policymakers in very specific ways.

He's the telecommunications chief executive who other chief executives fear and admire in equal measure. But you'll never see him hobnobbing with them at industry functions.
Teoh sowed the seeds of what today is called
"He's a sharp guy and he's created this from nothing," says rival chief executive Ravi Bhatia of Primus. "I'm green with envy."
But all that growth has come at a cost. The stockmarket fell in love with Teoh in 2009 and into early 2010, catapulting the shares from 12¢ to a high of $2.50. But scepticism about the company's punchy multiple has caused the stock to lose momentum this year.
It closed at $1.545 on Friday as the scepticism deepened following Teoh's report on Tuesday, when he disappointed the market with full-year profit guidance. Profits will still grow but not as fast as the analysts had expected.
He also warned that Telstra's $1 billion fightback, which will involve the telco's cutting prices and going after the market share it has lost to people such as Teoh, is going to cause a bloodbath in the industry.
But Teoh doesn't plan to jump into it. He tells the Weekend AFR he has his own fightback plan.
Like Telstra, TPG Telecom has a lousy reputation for customer service. To date, it hasn't mattered, because the industry standard is so low. Many had thought Teoh had found the key price point on which the budget airlines have based an entire industry – the point at which customers are prepared to put up with poor service because, well, it's just so darn cheap.
But now Teoh admits he has to do a David Thodey. TPG broadband customers have made more complaints to the industry ombudsman than those of any other provider except Telstra and Optus when it came to customer service, complaint handling and faults in the three months to March.
"There is no question that we have a lot of improvement to make on customer service," Teoh says. "That is a big priority we have.
"We have to put more focus and spend more money on it and make sure we give people top service.
"We have to spend more on the monitoring side to make sure the job is done. We have to make sure that all the staff are tip top."
The arrival of the national broadband network, which is designed to level the playing field between ISPs, will strip away some of Teoh's cost advantages, making service more important.
But he insists TPG will still have advantages because of its inter-city network and the cable it owns that connects Sydney to the US – infrastructure that Teoh can use at zero marginal cost. Rivals will also have a big demand for Teoh's networks. The NBN will largely be a local network, connecting ISPs from homes and offices back to a central exchange, so ISPs will need to haul traffic back to their own networks and under the ocean using wholesalers such as TPG.
Such is Teoh's appetite for infrastructure that he spent $2.55 million conducting forensic due diligence on Telecom New Zealand's AAPT, only to see his fierce rival iiNet snatch AAPT's consumer business from under his nose at the last minute.
To many observers it looked as if the industry had ganged up to make sure "anyone but Teoh" bought the business. The speculation now is that Teoh could make a move on Amcom, of which TPG already has 5 per cent, and which owns 23.4 per cent of iiNet. Teoh won't comment and says he is focusing on organic growth.
There have also been rumours that Teoh annoyed TPG's second largest shareholder, Washington H Soul Pattinson, during the AAPT bid by not keeping it as informed as WHSP had wanted.
WHSP chairman Robert Millner recently made supportive comments about TPG and denied talk that he was considering selling its 26.7 per cent stake. But rumours of tension persist. WHSP emerged on Teoh's shareholder register in April 2008, after his reverse takeover of SP Telemedia, in which WHSP was the largest shareholder. Now it is the second largest shareholder and its influence has declined.
Whereas many of the companies WHSP invests in use its Pitt Capital Partners business for corporate finance advice, industry sources say Teoh prefers accounting firms such as Deloitte and KPMG, and he carries out much of the mergers and acquisitions work himself."David's his own man, he does whatever he pleases," says Primus's Bhatia. "But it's worked.
"TPG used to import cables for memory chips and PCs, now it's an ASX 200 company. The reason is his fiat rules. I wish I had David's powers."
Teoh won't go near the subject except to say: "I have a huge responsibility. I am the chairman of TPG Telecom. I am the biggest shareholder in this company.
"I have a lot of shareholders and I have a big responsibility to take care of everyone. My heart is with this company I have to make sure it is performing well."
It's hard not to believe him.
