Optomechanical Layout
The opto-mechanical layout of FLAMINGOS-2 is shown above. The instrument is fed with either the standard (non-AO) f/16 beam from the secondary, or in the future an MCAO corrected f/32 beam. Light enters the first (MOS) dewar, and comes to a focus at the mask plane.
There is an optical OIWFS which is operated cold (and thus does not glow in the beam) and uses a small pickoff mirror to guide on a 6"x6" field containing the guidestar.
The MOS wheel has slots for 6 longslit masks and
9 custom cut MOS masks, 2 large circular pinhole masks, and an open position for the imaging mode. After the MOS wheel, light passes through a decker wheel and a field lens before passing through an open gate valve into the second (camera) dewar. Here the light is reflected off two flat mirrors before passing through the remainder of the collimator optics, and then the filter and Lyot wheels. Each of the two filter wheels can hold up to four filters, plus an open slot. The Lyot wheel is used to place cold stops in the beam for use at f/32 with MCAO. Light then passes through the grism wheel, with a choice between two low-resolution (R~1200) grisms, a medium-resolution (R~3000) grism, or an open hole (for imaging). Finally the light passes through the six-element camera optics and is focused onto the HAWAII2 detector, with a plate scale of 0.18 arcsec/pixel in non-AO mode, or 0.09 arcsec/pixel with MCAO.
The following is a 3D drawing of the instrument as seen from the telescope (without the MOS dewar cover, the bottom dewar snout, and the OIWFS mechanism). One can clearly see the MOS (foreground and black) and the decker (light green) wheels. This is a non-standard setup in which the MOS has a mask in the beam and the decker wheel is in the OPEN position.
This is a 3D drawing of the instrument as seen from the top. All shields, dewar covers and jackets, and cabling have been removed or rendered transparent. One can see the main elements of the FLAMINGOS-2 camera (mirrors and lens barrels). The external black boxes house the detector electronics. The black round housing in between the lens barrels contains the two filter wheels, the lyot wheel, and the grism wheel. The three small cylinders seen are the wheel drivers.
The imaging and MOS fields of view are shown below, with dimensions in the standard f/16 (non-AO) mode which will be available first.

You will have to excuse the lack of pictures of skiing etc. in this one as my phone had been dropped in the river before this clinic so I was phone less.
I arrived back in the UK in to Stansted airport….. if anyone has the choice not to fly in to this place then take it even if it costs more as it is the worst airport in the World!!! What should have taken us an hour and a half drive to get home took 4!!!!! Not cool. Anyway, we needed up going straight to the curry house where the long, stop start journey was forgotten and replaced by a beer and a spicy Indian dish The next morning I drove down to the Cotswolds, picked up the boat, dragged Ted Baber out of bed and headed to the lake. Id forgotten how beautiful the English countryside is, I had also forgotten how this gets overpowered a lot of the time by the terrible weather that we have over there. We put the boat in on Kuka, which is a tiny little lake and very well protected from the wind.
It was great to see that the 7 days filled up and there was new blood getting in to the sport with a couple of guys heading all the way down from Manchester for a days skiing. We needed up with around 15 different skiers throughout the week ranging from 10 years old to upper 50s. Even though we had rain, wind, boats brewing down left, right and center the week was a huge success and a huge shout out goes to everyone that skied in the clinic and the guys that helped out with boats and accommodations…. Paul Turner, Dave & Lisa Baber, Whitehouse clan and the great Mechanic down the road that got the Malibu running again.
Ted Baber skied the whole time i was there and Carl Barnett skied for a full 5 days……. impressive stuff as it was cold on some mornings…. brrrr. Ted had just come back from staying in Florida for 3 months at the World Barefoot Center where he was getting ready for the World Championships. Coming back and skiing on cold, backwashy water where the lake isn't long enough to do a tournament pass took the poor little bugger a bit of getting used to but he worked it out and got back in to his multiple turns on his feet behind the boat with consistency….. Remember Tedward……. it is all character building matey 😉
We had Carls better half get up on the bar which was great to see as well as young Harrisons dad and sister giving it a go for the first time and Bibby Curtis came over on a couple of afternoons after she got done with her GCSE exams. Great work on getting new blood in to the sport!
Harrison skied well with accomplishing his back deeps with consistency. If any of you want to hear a funny story then ask Harrison about borrowing my suit last year and learning to barefoot. lol.
Paul Turner, the UK team manager came on up for 2 days with another new barefooted from his neck of the woods as well as Clive Wilsdons daughters are getting in the sport now and both of them managed to stand up backwards and were working on their forward sit down stand ups as well as tumble turns and one foots. You keep it up girls and show your old man how it is done.

Rapid Cycling Bipolar Disorder
Rapid cycling bipolar disorder/ultradian in 12 year olds, what do you recommend?
Very complicated: Bipolar disorder in a child is complex to diagnose and treat, and it definitely requires an expert. A thorough evaluation (and ongoing follow-up) by a child psychiatrist with expertise in this area is necessary. No competent doctor would offer recommendations online, without a detailed history and through examination. ...Read more
Bipolar Disorder (Definition)
Also known as manic-depressive illness, bipolar disorder is a brain disorder that in its most severe form causes dramatic shifts in mood, from mania to depression. Symptoms of mania include markedly elevated mood and energy, reduced sleep and a reduced need for sleep, racing thoughts, and grandiose ideas. When mood changes are severe, psychotic ideation may be present. Symptoms of depression can include low energy, feeling sad, feelings of guilt and hopelessness that are out of proportion to the patient's actual situation, low motivation, inability to experience pleasure, and suicidal ideation. Sleep may be increased, and concentration may be impaired. Some manic patients may be extremely irritable rather than euphoric. Less severe but clearly abnormal mood ...Read more

Appropriate.: Rapid cycling can be both applied to bipolar i or bipolar ii. Presence of at least 4 mood episodes in the last 12 months that meet the criteria of manic, hypomanic or major depressive episode. These episodes can occur in any combination or order. Concerta can precipitate a manic episode. ...Read more
What triggers rapid cycling in bipolar disorder? I'm going through it. Dr. Prescribed seriquil..Will it work? Just took it once.Had psychotic episodes
Wish we knew: Stress, disrupted sleep pattern, nutrition may contribute, but bottom line is some are more prone to rapid cycling. Mixed episodes are common. If you had psychotic symptoms seroquel (quetiapine) is one of the best treatments. Good luck. Hope you are feeling better soon. ...Read more
I want to know if tramadol is a better choice for bipolar disorder with rapid cycling and mixed episodes, compared with Valium.
Neither: Tramadol is an opioid pain medication and Valium is an anti-anxiety/muscle relaxant. Both create drug dependence and are not indicated for treating Bipolar disorder. ...Read more

What causes bipolar disorder?
Multifactorial: So far no one has established a genetic link with bi-polar disorder, and many have tried. It is certainly true that it runs in families, but that can be a result of the family environment. There is a reasonable theory that the manic episodes are a way of combating the depressive feelings and that both are the result of chronic internal stress leading to depletion of neurotransmitters. ...Read moreSee 2 more doctor answers
Have bipolar disorder a test?
History: No lab or radiologic test, nor physical exam, can test for bipolar. Perhaps one day as there are strong indications it is a brain condition with a genetic background. But for now, it's a patient's history of modd changes, cognition and behavior that makes the diagnosis. In truth, this method works quite well, having been refined since antiquity. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Do I have a bipolar disorder?
Bipolar: Moods swing to extremes, between episodes of depression lasting around few weeks & phases of mania lasting few weeks each. Milder forms are called bipolar type 2 or cyclothymia, more severe forms are accompanied with psychotic symptoms such as hearing voices or seeing things that are not there. Your mental health counselor can assess & give more definite diagnosis. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer

(PHILADELPHIA) — The Hospital of the University
of Pennsylvania (HUP) has achieved Magnet status – the
highest institutional honor awarded for nursing excellence – from
the American Nurses
Credentialing Center (ANCC). To achieve
Magnet status, a hospital must undergo a rigorous review process
demonstrating they are committed to sustaining nursing excellence,
improving professional practice, and transforming the culture
of a work environment.
"This is a terrific honor and acknowledges the commitment we all share
to live up to the very highest standards of nursing excellence," comments Victoria
L. Rich, PhD, RN, FAAN, Chief Nurse Executive, University of Pennsylvania
Medical Center. "We are proud to be recognized for adhering to the fundamentals
of nursing excellence, which include a collaborative professional environment,
strong executive support, and perhaps most important of all, superb patient-centered
Achieving Magnet status is one of the highest achievements a hospital can achieve
in the world of professional nursing. Only about 4% of the 5,756 hospitals in
the nation are designated Magnet hospitals. Earning Magnet status requires
that a hospital undergo a rigorous review process. Hospitals must demonstrate
that they are committed to sustaining nursing excellence, improving professional
practice and transforming the culture of a work environment. The application
process is capped off with an intensive site visit by credentialing representatives
from the AANC. HUP's Magnet document scored within the range of excellence
for Magnet recognition and appraisers did not request further validation.
"This Magnet status award for nursing excellence and innovation is a hospital-wide
achievement," says Garry L. Scheib, Chief Operating Officer
at the University of Pennsylvania Health
System and
Executive Director for HUP. "Employees from every department in the hospital
contribute each and every day and night to providing safe, efficient care for
our patients."
Forming the framework for the Magnet appraisal process are 14 characteristics
that organizations applying for the award must be able to demonstrate and document.
These fourteen "Forces of Magnetism," together with over 164 sources
of evidence, resulted in HUP's application for Magnet status filling ten
volumes and including written narratives, exhibits, and demographics.
It took Dr. Rich and her team more than a year to develop and implement
a model of data collection that could accurately describe and
document the efforts of HUP's more than 1,300 nurses. One
way Dr. Rich managed the task was to create and implement a tool
called SOARS, an acronym for situation, opportunity, actions,
and results. When an application required an example for a specific
activity, the team applied the SOARS criteria.

Bren School of Environmental Science & Management
|Steve Gaines
|Santa Barbara, California, United States
The Bren School of Environmental Science & Management is a graduate professional school at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
The mission of the Bren School is to play a leading role in researching environmental issues, identifying and solving environmental problems, and training research scientists and environmental-management professionals.[1]
In 1991, recognizing the need for a graduate school dedicated to the study of the environment, the Regents of the University of California established the School of Environmental Science & Management at UC Santa Barbara.[2]
In 1994, Jeff Dozier became the school's first dean. In 1995, the first faculty were appointed, and in 1996 the first master's students were admitted, receiving their degrees in 1998. In 2000, the first PhD students were admitted. The first PhD degrees were awarded in 2002.[3]
In 1997, the school received a major gift from the Donald Bren Foundation to provide funding for endowed faculty chairs, faculty scholars, visiting lecturers, conferences, and student support. In recognition of the gift, the school was renamed the Bren School of Environmental Science & Management.[4]
In 2002, Bren Hall was completed, providing the school with the facilities and the physical focus it retains to this day.
Degree programs[edit]
The Bren School offers Master of Environmental Science & Management (MESM) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees.[5]
Master of Environmental Science & Management[edit]
The Bren School's Master of Environmental Science & Management (MESM) degree is a two-year program comparable to the Master of Environmental Management (MEM) degree offered by other schools. However, the Bren School has chosen to include "Science" in the name of its degree to emphasize its focus on environmental science.
One notable aspect of the master's program at the Bren School is the group project. The master's thesis for MESM candidates consists of a project, usually proposed by an agency or company having a local, statewide, nationwide, or international presence. Group projects begin during the spring quarter of the first year of study, and culminate in a final presentation to the Bren community, project stakeholders, and local professionals.[6]
PhD in Environmental Science & Management[edit]
The Bren School's PhD program is designed to prepare leaders in Environmental Science & Management. The program is notable for its focus on a wide variety of environmental issues.
Research Affiliations[edit]
- Sustainable Fisheries Group
- UC Center for the Environmental Implications of Nanotechnology (UC CEIN)
- UC Center for Energy and Environmental Economics (UCE3)
- Earth Research Institute
- Institute for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Research (ISBER)
- Marine Science Institute (MSI)
- National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS)
- National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis (NCGIA)
Bren Hall[edit]
The school's classrooms, laboratories, and other facilities are located in Bren Hall. Since opening in 2002, Bren Hall has been recognized as an exemplar of sustainable building practices. In 2002, the building was the first laboratory building in the United States to receive a LEED Platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).[7] In 2009, the building received a second LEED Platinum certification—the LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations & Maintenance. This recognition made Bren Hall the first structure in the nation to receive two LEED Platinum certifications.[8]

Author | Shakir Sheikh | Thursday, May 20,2004 7:22 AM
Not lights, not camera, but ACTION is definitely the new buzzword on the
programming circuit for English general entertainment channels in India. The
forte holder, comedy, is giving way to action for a mixed bag of programming
on offing to the viewers.
Says Abhijit Saxena, Senior Vice President, International Business, Zee
Network, "Action is a genre where visual entertainment is created. We have
studied the market, and also research has shown us that Indians are more bent
towards action and reality programmes. Apart from comedy, which is our
strong point, we have reworked our content to provide a mixed bag in order
to garner a greater mass appeal."
Witchblade is their latest offering in the action sphere. Zee had a daily
strip of comedy shows during its prime time belt. Action series hogs the
prime time followed by Drama and a dash of comedy.
Speaking on the viewers' appetite for action backed programming, Deepak Segal, Senior Vice President, Programming, STAR India says, "Action features
predominantly among the top-programs in the English general entertainment
genre with a 30 per cent presence in the top 50 programmes over the last 4
weeks. 25 per cent of our current programming mix falls in the category of
Action/Thriller. Our action shows which have featured in the top 50 in the
last 4 weeks include Law & Order Special Victims Unit, Zoe Busiek - Wild
Card and Third Watch."
"Initially we had 70 per cent of the content devoted to comedy. The new
programming mix for Zee English will include 60 per cent of action, 25 per
cent comedy and the rest for the drama genre," said Lina Joshi, Manager,
Programming, Zee English & Zee MGM.
"Zee is showing some of the top rated award winning serials from the US such as La Femme Nikita, Black Scorpion to name a few. Mr. and Mrs. Smith is
being telecasted for the last 2 to 3 months and is doing quite well. Zee
English will be coming out with two new programmes every month and we will
share the content details at the right time," she added.
New action series in the forthcoming line up from Star World includes a new serial titled Thunderdome, the tenth series of NYPD Blue, fourth series of
Angel, seventh series of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, sixth series of Nash
Bridges, eighth series of JAG and the third series of Mutant X.
So how does the house of action consider the new focus on its crunch area. Says Rohit Bhandari Vice President, AXN, "AXN delivers powerhouse
performances to its viewers. We have acquired the best properties from the
US as we make it a point to satisfy them (our viewers) with quality
programming. Having been present in the market for years, the television
ratings speak for us.
Our size is many times that of the current crop of English general
entertainment channels and we do not consider them in the threat area to make
any changes in our programming strategy. Schedule changes and innovations
keep happening, but that is to satisfy the needs of the viewers and has not
related in any way to competition."
Action is being offered as bait to pull in the cash cow by the English
general entertainment channels. Whether the cow falls for it or chooses
greener pastures is something we will have to wait and watch.

Oregon Poker – Legal Status In 2017
The state of Oregon has some good options when it comes to real money land-based gambling. There are Native American casinos scattered across the Beaver State, along with a racetrack where bets can be placed on horse races. Add to that a state lottery (which includes a video gaming element) and legal charitable real money betting, and you'll see Oregon's gambling laws are somewhere in America's political middle.
In terms of real cash tribal casinos, Oregon currently has nine facilities in operation – all licensed via compact agreements signed with the state. You'll find all the usual table games on offer, including poker and roulette, along with a big selection of slot machines for your entertainment. Thus far Oregon has resisted moves to allow commercial casinos to be introduced.
Oregon's one licensed racetrack venue (with regular meets) is Portland Meadows, which is home to thoroughbred and quarter horse races. Pari-mutuel real cash betting is legal, as is off-track betting at licensed establishments throughout the state. Simulcast real money betting on horse racing is in the mix too, which allows punters to place wagers on races happening elsewhere.
OR residents and visitors to the state can take part in charitable betting games, such as bingo and raffles, providing there is no real cash prize up for grabs. The state lottery just celebrated its 30th anniversary and continues to offer huge prizes. Millions of dollars have been raised to fund good causes in the state by the lottery, which incorporates video lottery machines in its offering.

Online Gambling Law in Oregon
Oregon law does address the act of a business or individual accepting payments online in relation to real cash gambling, but there is no direct reference we can find to the act of online gambling itself. That being said, seeing as Internet gambling is not included in the permitted list of gambling activities in the state, we can only conclude it is classed as illegal.
As things stand, only three states in the U.S. have legalized some form of online real cash gambling – being New Jersey, Delaware and Nevada. They did so after prompting from the Federal Government, who backtracked on their Wire Act and encouraged all 50 states to pursue their own agenda when it came to Internet gambling.
Can Players from Oregon Play Online Poker?
Players from Oregon should have no trouble at all accessing online real cash poker websites. There are a good number of sites that will accept their registration and - in theory at least - you could be playing at the virtual poker tables in a matter of minutes.
We would stress to point out here that picking the right online poker site is vital. There will always be some sites that are set up to defraud you, or steal your details, and you can never be too careful when playing online for real cash. The best course of action is to reference respected review sites and get as much feedback as possible from trusted sources before landing on the site you choose to play at.
Recent Developments
Video lottery machines are a hot topic in Oregon politics right now. Around 2,500 machines are reportedly, "the main source of revenue for the lottery," and there's a bill in process right now that calls for detailed research into the economic climate in which each machine is currently placed.
The idea behind the bill is to help solve an age-old problem with state lotteries – the accusation that they end up being a drain on the poor.
The Facts
Oregon is far from the worst U.S. state to find yourself in if you're seeking out the thrills of real money gambling. There are Native American casinos, you have a racetrack and off-track betting, and the lottery is available in various guises.
The History of Gambling in Oregon
Oregon's modern gambling history began with the opening of Portland Meadows in 1946. Pari-mutuel betting on horse races continues to this day at the track, with the addition of off-track betting arriving with new legislation in 1997.
It was in the late 1980s that the nine Native American tribes of Oregon were given permission to pursue compacts for tribal casinos. Soon enough all nine agreed compacts and OR now boasts nine fully functional tribal casinos. Oregon's state lottery was born in 1984, and in the early 1990s the lottery commission made a big push towards using real money video gambling terminals. Real money video poker and line machines are now widespread.
Regulated Gambling Options in Oregon
The following would be classed as regulated real cash gambling options in Oregon.
The Future of Regulated Online Gambling in Oregon
There's no evidence to suggest Oregon is aggressively pursuing the legalization of online real money gambling right now. However, one might argue that the state's openness to video poker and line machines would surely suggest lawmakers might be amenable to the notion.
The most likely conclusion to draw is that Oregon, like many other states, is waiting to see how things turn out in New Jersey, Delaware and Nevada, before making a move on online real cash gambling. Should those states enjoy huge cash and bring in spectacular tax revenue, OR could well be tempted to join the party.
The Bottom Line
Oregon has some excellent options when it comes to real cash gambling, but it's unclear what's next for the state. Could we see further expansion? You wouldn't rule it out, especially if the existing gambling ventures continue to generate huge funds for the state.

Underground storage tank
|The examples and perspective in this article may not represent a worldwide view of the subject. (June 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
An Underground storage tank (UST) is, according to United States federal regulations, a storage tank, not including any underground piping connected to the tank, that has at least 10 percent of its volume underground.
Definition in U.S. federal law[edit]
"Underground storage tank" or "UST" means any one or combination of tanks including connected underground pipes that is used to contain regulated substances, and the volume of which including the volume of underground pipes is 10 percent or more beneath the surface of the ground.[1] This does not include, among other things, any farm or residential tank of 1,100 gallons or less capacity used for storing motor fuel for noncommercial purposes, tanks for storing heating oil for consumption on the premises, or septic tanks.
In September 1988, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published underground storage tank regulations, including a 10-year phase-in period that required all operators to upgrade their USTs with spill prevention and leak detection equipment.[2]
Tank types[edit]
|This section does not cite any sources. (June 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Underground storage tanks fall into four different types:
- Steel/aluminum tank, made by manufacturers in most states and conforming to standards set by the Steel Tank Institute.
- Composite overwrapped, a metal tank (aluminum/steel) with filament windings like glass fiber/aramid or carbon fiber or a plastic compound around the metal cylinder for corrosion protection and to form an interstitial space.
- Tanks made from composite material, fiberglass/aramid or carbon fiber with a metal liner (aluminum or steel). See metal matrix composite.
- Composite tanks such as carbon fiber with a polymer liner (thermoplastic). See rotational molding and fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP).
Petroleum underground storage tanks[edit]
Petroleum USTs are used throughout North America at automobile filling stations and by the US military. Many have leaked, allowing petroleum to contaminate the soil and groundwater and enter as vapor into buildings, ending up as brownfields or Superfund sites.[citation needed] Many USTs installed before 1980 consisted of bare steel pipes, which corrode over time. Faulty installation and inadequate handling may also cause leaks.[citation needed]
Regulation in the US[edit]
USTs are regulated in the United States to prevent release of petroleum and contamination of groundwater, soil and air. The 1984 Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) required EPA to develop regulations for the underground storage of motor fuels to minimize and prevent environmental damage, by mandating owners and operators of UST systems to verify, maintain, and clean up sites damaged by petroleum contamination.[3]
In December 1988, EPA regulations asking owners to locate, remove, upgrade, or replace underground storage tanks became effective. Each state was given authority to establish such a program within its own jurisdiction, to compensate owners for the cleanup of underground petroleum leaks, to set standards and licensing for installers, and to register and inspect underground tanks.[citation needed]
Most upgrades to USTs consisted[when?] of the installation of corrosion control (cathodic protection, interior lining, or a combination of cathodic protection and interior lining), overfill protection (to prevent overfills of the tank during tank filling operations), spill containment (to catch spills when filling), and leak detection for both the tank and piping.[citation needed]
Many USTs were removed without replacement during the 10-year program. Many thousands of old underground tanks were replaced with newer tanks made of corrosion resistant materials (such as fiberglass, steel clad with a thick FRP shell, and well-coated steel with galvanic anodes) and others constructed as double walled tanks to form an interstice between two tank walls (a tank within a tank) which allowed for the detection of leaks from the inner or outer tank wall through monitoring of the interstice using vacuum, pressure or a liquid sensor probe. Piping was replaced during the same period with much of the new piping being double-wall construction and made of fiberglass or plastic materials.[citation needed]
Tank monitoring systems capable of detecting small leaks (must be capable of detecting a 0.1 gallons-per-hour with a probability of detection of 95% or greater and a probability of false alarm of 5% or less) were installed and other methods were adopted to alert the tank operator of leaks and potential leaks.[citation needed]
U.S. regulations required that UST cathodic protection systems be tested by a cathodic protection expert (minimum every three years) and that systems be monitored to ensure continued compliant operation.[4]
Many owners, who previously stored fuel in underground tanks, switched to above-ground tanks to enable closer environmental monitoring of fuel storage and to reduce costs. Many states, however, do not permit above-ground storage of motor fuel for resale to the public.[citation needed]
The EPA Underground Storage Tank Program is considered to have been very successful.[according to whom?] The national inventory of underground tanks has been reduced by more than half, and most of the rest have been replaced or upgraded to much safer standards.[citation needed] Of the approximately one million underground storage tanks sites in the United States as of 2008, most of which handled some type of fuel, an estimated 500,000 have had leaks.[5] As of 2009[update], there were approximately 600,000 active USTs at 223,000 sites subject to federal regulation.[6] In 2012, EPA published how to screen buildings vulnerable to petroleum vapor intrusion,[7] and in June 2015, U.S. EPA finally released its "Technical Guide for Assessing and Mitigating the Vapor Intrusion Pathway from Subsurface Vapor Sources to Indoor Air" and "Technical Guide For Addressing Petroleum Vapor Intrusion At Leaking Underground Storage Tank Sites"[8]

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I recently got laid-off from my job and am considering sitting out the fines in jail. The counties are Brazoria, San Jacinto, and Nacogdoches. If i decide to serve my time, what should I expect throughout the process? Thank you.Since the first citation, I have not made any sort of contact with the courts and have no prior offenses on criminal record.
You should call a traffic offense or traffic ticket attorney in your area. You could also call each of the courts to see what they say. However, I would not take any action with the cases until speaking with an attorney.
This post on AVVO is for discussion purposes only and should not be considered or taken as legal advice. This post does not create an attorney-client relationship and we have no attorney-client relationship with any person unless and until an attorney-client agreement is signed by you and us and a legal fee has been paid.Ask a similar question
Contact an attorney who handles speeding tickets in the counties. Usually the Counties don't like to pay for inmates to serve traffic offenses. Maybe it can be worked out.Ask a similar question
I have handled traffic citation warrants for clients all over Texas. Many times no personal appearance is needed, but they may require an attorney bond. You will find that the fees have doubled since you missed your court date. However, the city attorney or prosecutor will plea bargain, greatly reducing the amounts you have to pay. Also, if you have citations for moving violations, and or license or no insurance, paying the fines or sitting them out results in convictions on your driving record. This can result in very expensive surcharges and possible suspension from DPS,. At least call an attorney and weigh your options.Ask a similar question
You don't want to just sit out the traffic warrants because points get placed against your license for traffic convictions. If you cannot hire a traffic lawyer, which would be your best course of action, then call each court and work something out with them. They may require that you make bonds on the warrants and receive a new court date on which you could work the cases out. Good luck! -JL Carpenter-Rambin / www.jlcarpenterlaw.com

Ok..I know alot of you folks including myself were not to crazy about the glass back on the nexus 4.
It looks all nice and pretty and adds a bit the class to the phone but..glass is glass and it will break,shatter or chip sooner or later.
So here is what I think google should have done..made the back of the phone just like the back of the Nexus 7 ?!
Hey it has a nice feel to the touch,it's made of rubber so it can help with the sudden drops (of course thats if it fell on the back)
and it's alot sturder than that glass on the back of the nexus 4 ?? ..what do you guys think?
I really think it would look great,now that I look at it again..
Anybody with some Photoshop skills ??? ;)

Len McCluskey was being very, very careful. The room was packed with journalists, so he was, he said, "trying not to say too many controversial things". After all, he didn't want to present the Tories with "easy ammunition" to use against Ed Miliband. Fortunately for Mr Miliband, the leader of the Unite union succeeded comfortably.
Well, unless maybe you count the bit where he said Labour would lose the next election if it didn't start being a lot more Left-wing. Or the bit where he said that if Labour did lose the next election then Unite might donate to other parties instead.
Or the bit where he said Labour MPs were growing "uneasy" because the party leadership seemed to have "no cohesive vision". Or the bit where he said "just bumbling along" wasn't good enough any more. Or the bit where he praised the SNP for "charging up Labour's Left wing" and persuading people they were "more radical than Labour". Or the bit where he said that if the voting system in national elections changed to Proportional Representation, and a new workers' party emerged, he might vote for it rather than Labour. Or the bit where he sarcastically mocked Mr Miliband's chief election strategist Douglas Alexander ("Yeah, he's our leader"). Or the bit where he said he feared for the future of the Labour party.
Apart from that, though, it was a ringing endorsement.
(Of course, you may argue that, from Mr Miliband's point of view, being criticised as insufficiently Left-wing by a major union leader is electorally more helpful than being loudly endorsed by a major union leader. So maybe it wasn't so bad.)
Mr McCluskey, a Liverpudlian who used to work in the shipyards – albeit only as a clerk – was the guest speaker at a lunch of the parliamentary press gallery. He began with what he called "a working-class joke" (it was about a brass band and contained some swearing), before slipping gently into a 20-minute speech about greedy capitalists, the corporate elite, the dismantling of the fabulous jewel that was our NHS, etc.
Then it was on to questions. Someone asked about the way David Cameron constantly name-checked him when attacking Mr Miliband at Prime Minister's Questions. "Ed should stand up and be proud of the links with the unions!" replied Mr McCluskey stoutly. "I'd like to see the Labour leadership be more up-front about that."
Happily, that's what Mr Cameron would like, too. Good to see the unions and the Tories finding common ground at last.
For all the frankness of his views, nothing Mr McCluskey said sounded like a rant. His voice was quiet. He banged the table only once, and even then I think it was by accident. Like a professional politician he addressed everyone by name ("Yes, Jack… Well, David…"). At one point he even addressed himself by name ("Rules can be changed, but not by Len McCluskey…").
He also displayed a mischievous sense of humour. How often did he see Mr Miliband? "Maybe five or six times a week. We have breakfast, lunch… We go walking on Sundays, it's very, very pleasant…"
As he said earlier: no easy ammunition.

The inaugural meeting of the AAPG Charles Taylor Fellowship, featuring a keynote address by 2012 Pratt Award winner Robert H. Lander, will be held Feb. 4 at Rice University in Houston.
The gathering, which provides an opportunity for face-to-face interaction among the group's members, features a special dinner as a way to thank current and past members of the AAPG editorial board for their service.
Lander's talk will be titled "The Message Is the Medium: Reconciling Petrology and Rock Physics Models."
The Charles Taylor Fellowship was established last year by the AAPG Executive Committee as a way to help ensure that the BULLETIN remains the premier scientific journal of energy geoscience. It is a "special committee" that will be chaired by the AAPG Elected Editor, who currently is Stephen E. Laubach.
The group comprises all former and current members of the Association's editorial boards. Initial priorities for the group have included improving editorial board operations, identifying suitable board and reviewer performance metrics and standards, monitoring of BULLETIN performance (including time-to-decision and other efficiency measures) and updating our reviewer database.
The Fellowship also takes an active role in identifying and soliciting topics for theme issues and may recommend review articles to be commissioned.
More than 300 people have been invited to the February dinner meeting.
Plans for the day call for several working sessions that deal with:
"The Fellowship also is a way for AAPG to say 'thank you' to the more than 280 living former associate editors who have given their time and energy to the BULLETIN over the past several decades," Laubach said.
Charles Henry Taylor was AAPG's first editor, serving from 1917-19, and he was hailed as being a key figure in AAPG history.
His 1964 obituary called him the "father of AAPG."
Lander, who will speak during the dinner portion of the schedule, is with Geocosm in Durango, Colo. He and co-author Linda M. Bonnell received the Wallace E. Pratt Memorial Award – presented to honor and reward the authors of the best AAPG BULLETIN article in each calendar year – for the paper "A Model for Fibrous Illite Nucleation and Growth in Sandstones," which appeared in the August 2010 BULLETIN.
Fellowship members can attend the working sessions and dinner free of charge; a limited number of tickets to the dinner and Lander's talk will be available to the public on a first-come, first-served basis.
To request tickets, or for more information on the meeting, contact Tonia Greening.

Super! C'est juste qu'il faut pour les élèves après les vacances de Noël!
Merci et bonne nouvelle année!
Merci Leslie! Bonne année!
Marie, I stumbled across your web site quite by accident and found it to be enchanting. It's not only a delightful and refreshing resource for someone just starting out in French, it's' also full of fascinating things to read.
I apologize for writing in English. My French is still embarrassingly bad. At any rate, thank you and best wishes.
Hi Marie
I have just found your blog and think its fantastic. I am a begginer and would like to know the difference between mieux and meilleur, thanks
Dear Marie,
I've greatly enjoyed looking through your blog, great ilustrations, fun material and great topics. I have specially enjoyed the article "making noises" and is really good to have a audio support to compare when studying.
We are The Centre International d'Antibes, the largest private school dedicated to teaching French in France for over 30 years.
We will be interested in a link exange to your great blog.

Looking forward hearing from you.
Kind regards, Maria Fourre
Good day,
I started learning french few months ago and I would like to know if there are any small books that contain small stories I can buy online. I am still beginner with limited vocabulary and grammer and I like to read books because I think they are the best to not forget the new words.

News broke that gay porn heartthrob, tattoo connoisseur, anal plunderer and all-around-nice-guy-slash-gay-porn-dreamboat Johnny Hazzard has signed a contract with Randy Blue, one of the premier amateur sites featuring the photography of Jeremy Lucido and the cocks of such name brands as Reese Rideout, Leo Giomani, Malachi Marx and scores of other mansicles who have robbed countless men of their semen and single-handedly kept the computer keyboard industry afloat during the Great Recession.
Mr. Hazzard, who made his mark in the mid-2000's when he signed on at Rascal, has won multiple performance awards including the GayVN for 'Best Actor' in "Wrong Side of The Tracks," (Parts 1 and 2) and an award for a performance his first year in the business in "Detention." (It's a study of the American Criminal Justice System as seen through the eyes of men's cocks.) His last film for Chi Chi LaRue - under the Rascal pictures banner - was "Steven Daigle: XXXposed."
The question now is why? Or, actually, how much? Randy Blue is doing something different, at least as far as his competitors are concerned and in this industry, you can't afford to wait for the other guy to take chances. So you act. And he did and now Johnny will and everybody's happy because, dang, the boy looks good!
Let's hope he fully exploits Mr. Hazzard's God-given gifts.

In an ideal world you would never see a solitary horse in a field, looking forlornly over a gate, no companion in sight. Horses, after all, are herd animals. But in the real world, due to space, time and economic constraints many horses are kept alone. In the majority of cases they receive plenty of care and attention from their human connections and seem perfectly content, but is this enough? Should every horse have another one with whom to graze, drink, sleep, roll, scratch and play fight?
It is true that some horses won't live happily alone — they become fretful and stressed and can begin to display vices, such as crib biting and wind sucking. In a different scenario, two horses can become inseparable, so when you ride one the other may become distressed. A companion may be the solution in both cases, but before you start looking ask yourself the following:
• Can I afford a companion horse? He will need regular visits from the equine dentist as well as the farrier, even if he doesn't wear shoes; he will add to your feed bills and, if he is an older horse, he may come with health issues that require veterinary attention.
• What sex should the companion be? If your gelding is only ever happy with a male friend, there is no point taking on a mare.
• What age should the companion be? If you have a youngster think long and hard before you get him an aged mate, or vice versa. The veteran may soon tire of the youngster's antics.
• Is the companion happy to be left alone? If you ride your own horse, will the now solitary companion start to fret?
• Is your horse a poor doer that needs plenty of grazing/forage? If so a tubby native that requires restricted grazing isn't going to make the best mate.
• Has the companion only ever lived out? If so he may not be suitable if your horse is stabled regularly and needs his new friend living next door.
• Do you have the time to devote to looking after two horses properly?
The companion will still need care, attention and regular handling and grooming. If you plan to give him scant regard, don't get him in the first place.
If you still think that a companion is the right solution, there are numerous horses and ponies that deserve a home of their own. If you provide him with a loving, happy base you will be doing him a huge favour.
Not all horses love other horses, and companions do come in all shapes and sizes. These can range from donkeys, sheep, goats and cattle to the family cat or dog — provided they understand not to chase and bite.
If your horse does have to live alone and you can't provide him with a friend, offset the loneliness by paying him regular visits and spending time grooming and interacting with him.
There are plenty of high profile charities that have a raft of companion horses and ponies seeking loving homes. Indeed, by rehoming one, you will be helping the charity make space for another needy welfare case. Organisations such as World Horse Welfare, Horses4homes and Blue Cross all have excellent websites that will advise you about rehoming a companion. You can also Google 'rehoming a companion' and plenty of others will pop up, some of them possibly local to you.
The benefit of taking on a horse from such a source is that your needs will be assessed by an expert and so it is far more likely that the companion you are given will be suitable for your situation. You also have the added security that should things not work out, the charity will provide plenty of support and probably a substitute horse if things go really haywire. Fees also tend to be quite low for companion horses.
If you don't want to go down the charity route, but have seen the perfect horse advertised online, be very careful before you proceed. Privately advertised 'companions', could well come with a raft of health issues, not to mention behavioural problems, and if you choose wrongly you may not only find your horse being kicked and bullied, but you could be left 'holding the baby', with the previous owner not prepared to take their horse back.
Therefore give as much thought to taking on a companion as you would to buying a riding horse. Even if you are unable to hop on his back, the pitfalls can be remarkably similar.

Chapter one A Forced Marraige
True it had started out as a marriage by law, since the wizarding world has lost so many people in the battles. This law contracted the wizard, and witch, who was chosen by the Department Of Magic, forcing the muggle born and half blood to be wed to a pure blood, for three years, and conceive a child within one year. That went for pure blood widowers.
I lost my first wife, first love, during one of the battles. She had fought protecting her sister, and in turn lost my child which she had been pregnant with what would had been our first child. I told myself I would never fall in love, then the law took place two months after the light side won.
My brothers Fred, Percy, and Ron had died in battle also, leaving behind George (Fred twin), Ginny, Charlie, and the honorary Weasley Children, Harry, and Hermione. Harry, and my sister were one of the lucky ones, because the ministry allowed the two to be husband, and wife.
Charlie turned out marrying some muggle born named Mandy, who worked in Romania with him, at the dragon resort.
George married a half blood named Anya Simmer's, who was from Switzerland, who turned out to be the best thing to happen to him, both had the same type of humor.
Last, but certainly not least, Hermione Granger, who was paired up with yours truly. It wasn't like she had asked to be my wife, but since I barely lost my wife and unborn child, I was angry. I was thinking of all my losses, and didn't stop to think about what she lost. She lost her first love, my youngest brother, she lost Ron, apparently they were planning on getting married after the war was won. Ron had died fighting to protect her. He died a hero in her book, and my book as well.
The only ways you weren't ruled to marry, was if you were already married with children (yes for those who didn't have children after five years of being married to their spouse were forced to divorce), and if you were comatose, or already buried six feet below ground.
The Engagement
I was sitting in my mom's living room, staring into the fire place, had just got the parchment indicating my matches name. 'This can't bloody well be happening."
My mom came down the steps, with an equally angered Hermione, who had in her hand the same looking parchment. My mom was trying to calm the witch down, "Hermione, it
could be worse, you could have ended up being married to the Malfoy's, Crabbe's, or Goyle's."
"I know, but I just lost Ron, and Bill just lost his wife, not fair to either one of us to be stuck with one another," Hermione hadn't yet looked in my direction, but my mother had.
My mom smiled at me, not letting the witch in her arm know, as they walked through to the kitchen, "I agree, but I am just happy you are going to be a real part of the Weasley's clan still," she sat the girl in the chair at the table, with her back still facing my direction, and went to get her a cup of tea.
"I was going to marry Ron, but damn Voldemort killed that dream," She clenched the parchment still in hand, tightly in her fist, "I don't think I could love someone after Ron."
Mom smiled as she carried in the tray, with three cups upon it, then looked at me, "Have a seat Billy, please?"
Hermione's body tensed at the sound of my name, she tried to look away from me, as I slowly took a seat at the table, "Bill."
"Hermione," I acknowledged her in the same tone she used, not one of hate, but a tone one would use if greeting a person just to be polite, I looked at my mom, "When do Harry and Ginny get back from the honeymoon?"
Hermione broke down in another fit of tears, and tried to hide them, behind her cup. I admit she wasn't the worse person to be married to, she was smart, brave, and someone that would make any wizard happy, Merlin knows my youngest brother spoke volumes of her, during his time at Hogwarts in his letters.
"Hermione, I know that neither of us want this, but I think the sooner we make this final, the sooner we could go on with this some what pretend marriage," I leaned in towards her, and rested my hand over her hand, "I think this is temporary idea, and it won't last the law, but till then we will have to play the parts of husband, and wife."
She pulled her hand from mine, and glared, "I will marry you as soon as possible, I agree that this law won't last for more than a year, and since we have two months to marry, I rather do it sooner, rather than later."
Mom smiled at me, as she hurried back into the kitchen to attend the soup she had been cooking for the last two hours, "I have the whole wedding planned out already, we could do it this weekend, invite all our-"
"No!" Both Hermione, and I burst in unison, causing my mother to drop her spoon to the floor, and stare at us.
I looked at the girl next to me, "Department Of Magic, we'll get married there."
She nodded and looked at my mom, "Molly, I did dream of having a big wedding, with Ron, and now that he is gone, I don't want to over load on a wedding, which was practically forced upon me," She looked at me, with tears streaming down her face, "And I don't want you to forget the wedding you, and your wife had."
I looked at my mother, and smiled, as I pulled the witch beside me in my arms, "We'll see you later mom," I watched as my mom hurried towards us, as I apperated the two of us out of the burrow.
After we got the paperwork, and were married we returned to my home, 'Shell Cottage' and discussed how we were planning on keeping the appearance of our marriage seem real, without feeling as if we were really husband and wife, because in my heart, and was sure hers to, it just was not real.
First Month
I knew she was in her bedroom, one of the things we agreed to, okay she suggested without caring what I thought, except the one night a week when we would have sex. I knew that was where she would be, because she hadn't been in the library, and nor was she in the lab she had made inside the basement.
"I know your out there Bill," She shouted from the other side of her closed bedroom door, with venom in her voice, "What do you want?"
I sighed, "I just wanted to see how your feeling?"
"I'm not pregnant," She shouted.
"Oh, okay," I stomped back into my room.
It was something of a routine now, going to her room, checking to see rather she was pregnant or not, and then go back to my normal routine. Both of us relieved that a child would not be coming into this world, where there own mom, and dad didn't even give the other the time of day.
Honestly, I think I know how Professor Snape felt, talking to his students, who cared nothing about what he was saying.
Only time I heard my 'wife' have an actual conversation, was when my mother, or Ginny, and Harry were talking to her. She was a brilliant woman, I knew that, so that was what got me mad, when she just locked herself inside her room just to avoid any unnecessary reason to talk.
At first, I personally didn't mind…..
