Welcome to the Practice of Law, Mr. Fuentes! (BTW, the Courts Are All Closed).
Here's a small light of positivity to brighten the dark government shutdown sea we all seem to be swimming in, a young lawyer being sworn in to our noble profession.
Too bad you only get a week in federal court!
Still, the doors are wide open at 73 West Flagler.
To get ready for motion calendar, I suggest barging to the front of the deli counter at Publix, pompously state that the deli lady already knows your order, the minute she starts cutting your roast beef start packing up your papers, if the person you cut off begins to protest then loudly talk over her and -- in an exaggerated motion -- hand the deli lady a blank piece of paper and assert that the document provides clear and controlling authority for your actions, and if she continues to protest demand an evidentiary hearing by the gourmet olive cart and threaten to take an immediate writ to the yogurt aisle.
(I've seen this work a hundred times!)
Have a great weekend!

[The scene opens with a child playing with a ball. Another child rides by on a bike while a mother watches and smiles. The announcers voice comes on:]ReplyDelete
"Your family depends upon you. They need you. But what would happen if suddenly you weren't there? [Images of a child crying, a wife looking at a pile of bills, another picture flashes with a child staring sadly at a picture. From the background slowly walking into focus out of some sort of large room is Spencer Aronfeld]
"My name is Spencer Aronfeld and every day in this country thousands of people die in tragic accidents.
Look around. Everything you see can kill you. Your pencil, your water glass, that muffin from Starbucks, even your daily vitamin. That's why I am imploring you to buy my new book: DEATH IS EVERYWHERE!
DEATH IS EVERYWHERE is a practical hands on book for those of you who want to live a long life. You already know you shouldn't SCUBA dive or paraglide or run with the Bulls in Spain. But did you know that when your office-mate starts playing with a rubber-band and paper clip, your risk of immediate serious injury which could be followed by surgery, infection, and death increases fourfold? How about that harmless looking TV remote everyone has? Last year they accounted for 1100 ER visits and over 32 related deaths! In DEATH IS EVERYWHERE you will have a daily hands on guide giving your lifesaving practical advice.
And since death can accompany the mailman, we offer the book in several easy and convenient download formats, as well as softcover with anti-bactierial coated pages. Each softcover book comes with a set of finger cots designed to protect you from life threatening paper cuts.
Please- if you want to live, then order DEATH IS EVERYWHERE for you and your loved ones. And remember, if you or someone you know are injured-and you will be- call the lawyers at the Aronfeld law firm and we will represent you. Thank you.
[The camera pulls back as Spencer walks into a large safe room with padded walls. He presses a button and we hear air hissing as a large steel door swings shut, safely sealing him in his safe room and protecting him from the outside world.]

Speaking of churlish crooks.... Florida Overlord Rick Scott didn't bother to contact the three 3d DCA JNC nominees who didn't make the final cut - 2 of which are sitting Circuit Judges - to advise them of same.ReplyDelete
His staff called the 3 that actually made the cut and didn't have the courtesy to contact the others to give them the bad news. Instead one of them found out from a friend that the decision had been made almost one week ago.
Rick Scott is like school in the summer time: NO CLASS!

Users often interact with computing devices via graphical user interfaces. A graphical user interface (GUI) is a computer software program, usually executed within an operating system that enables users to view and manipulate visual elements that represent software objects. Certain software objects may also be associated with hardware objects, such as disc drives, printers, servers, switches, other peripheral devices, other computing devices, and the like. Visual elements of a GUI are viewed on a display surface. A display surface may comprise the electronic display of a computing device, e.g., a desktop computer, laptop computer, personal digital assistant (PDA), cellular telephone, interactive kiosk, etc. A display surface may also comprise multiple physical display devices such as, but not limited to, an array of liquid crystal displays (LCDs). A display surface may also be referred to as a "screen" or "desktop." A display surface may be subdivided into multiple viewing areas often referred to as "displays." A display surface on which a GUI presents visual elements for viewing is generically referred to herein as a "display." Visual elements presented by a GUI on a display are manipulated by actions such as moving and clicking a computer mouse, typing on a keyboard, pressing buttons on a keypad, etc.
In a GUI, visual elements may be placed inside of a "window." A window is a bounded region of a display that is dedicated to presenting particular software objects and/or providing a particular set of functions, i.e., actions. For example, an e-mail program provides a window in which to view e-mail messages represented by visual elements. The e-mail program usually provides functions, i.e., actions, such as, but not limited to, creating, editing, and organizing e-mail messages. Windows are usually rectangular but may be any two-dimensional shape.
GUIs enable users to perform a wide variety of tasks. Typically, the wide variety and large number of tasks users perform in a GUI require users to coordinate and operate on information from multiple sources. Each source of information is typically contained within a window, the fundamental unit at which users can easily manipulate information. While performing a particular task, a user often benefits from simultaneously viewing relevant information that exists within different windows. Finding and viewing the windows for a particular task is difficult when a GUI contains windows for a plurality of tasks.
This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This summary is not intended to identify key features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter.
A method for managing windows in a display is disclosed. The method comprises: forming clippings for windows located in a focal region of a display; displaying the clippings in a peripheral region of the display; hiding the windows in the focal region of the display; indicating the states of the clippings; and in response to a user action, displaying the windows and hiding the clippings.
A clipping comprises an image of a region of a window and an icon. The default image of a region of a window contains the title of the window. The image of a region of a window may also be selected by dragging a cursor across the region of the window.
A clipping is formed when a window is dragged from the focal region into the peripheral region. A clipping may also be formed when the minimize button of a window is clicked.
A clipping list is formed when a clipping is moved near another clipping. A clipping moved near a clipping list is inserted into the clipping list.
Indicating the change state of a clipping comprises: detecting that the contents of the clipping are changing; providing a visual cue for the clipping; changing the appearance of the visual cue in response to detecting that the contents of the clipping are no longer changing; and removing the visual cue in response to a user action. The contents of the clipping are updated in accordance with the changing contents of the window associated with the clipping. Differences between the window contents and the clipping contents are detected and the clipping contents are replaced with the changed window contents.
Differences between the contents of the window and the contents of the clipping are detected by periodically comparing the window contents to the clipping contents. Pixels in selected positions in the window contents are compared to pixels in the same positions in the clipping contents. Alternatively, the window may inform the clipping that the window's content has changed and that the clipping content should change.
The change state of a clipping in a clipping list is propagated to the clipping list.
The foregoing aspects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will become more readily appreciated as the same become better understood by reference to the following detailed description, when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
A window is a bounded region of a display, in a GUI, that is dedicated to presenting objects and/or providing a particular set of functions, i.e., actions. While GUIs enable users to perform a wide variety of tasks, when a display of a GUI contains windows for a plurality of tasks, it is often difficult for users to find and view the windows for a particular task. A way to manage windows for a plurality of tasks in a display is to represent windows with images smaller than the windows and place the smaller images off to a side of the display.
Visual elements, e.g., windows and images, may be moved in a display by "dragging." Dragging is performed by pressing a mouse button or key and holding down the mouse button or key while moving the mouse, causing the cursor and the visual element the cursor is over to move. In both clicking and dragging, the button or key is usually a part of the pointing device, e.g., a mouse button, but may be a part of another device, e.g., a key on a keyboard. A variant of dragging, often referred to as "select dragging," may be used to select a plurality of visual elements in an area of the display or to select an area of the display. To begin select dragging, the cursor is placed over an empty area of the display outside of the plurality of visual elements to be selected or at a corner of the display area to be selected. The mouse button is held down and the cursor is "dragged" diagonally across the area containing the plurality of visual elements. Preferably, a rectangle with a dashed line border is used to indicate a rectangular region being selected as the cursor is dragged. The cursor is dragged until the rectangle surrounds the plurality of visual elements or the desired display area. When the desired visual elements are surrounded by the rectangle, or desired display area is outlined by the rectangle, the mouse button is released selecting the visual elements or display area.
A task bar containing icons is a way to manage windows for a plurality of tasks by representing the windows with images smaller than the windows. A more effective way to manage windows is to use "clippings." A clipping comprises an image and an icon. The image in a clipping is a region of a window with which the clipping is associated. The icon represents the application with which the window is associated. Clippings "distill" the information contained in a window to make it easier for users to quickly understand the status of the window and the task for which the window was created.
An image, e.g., unchanging image 360, may be formed by the process illustrated by the exemplary functional flow diagram shown in
Images for clippings may also be formed by selecting a predetermined region of the windows with which the clippings are associated. For example, a narrow rectangle encompassing the upper left corner of a window may be used to form "default" images for clippings. Using predetermined regions allows clippings to be formed by clicking on a control, e.g., the minimize button of a window. Forming clippings from predetermined window regions by clicking on the minimize button of a window is illustrated in
It is also possible to provide more visual reinforcement to users when the minimize button of a window is clicked by animating the translation of a window in a focal region to a clipping in a peripheral region. For example, when the minimize button of a window in a focal region is clicked, instead of being immediately hidden, the window may be automatically moved from the focal region into the peripheral region in a manner that imitates a user's dragging motion. When the window crosses over into the peripheral region, the window is hidden and a clipping for the window appears in the peripheral region.
As just described, after a clipping image has been selected, the window from which the clipping image was derived is hidden and a clipping is formed in the peripheral region 120. How a clipping region that is derived from a region of a window is used to form a clipping, e.g., clipping 140, in the peripheral region 120 is illustrated by the exemplary functional flow diagram shown in
Clippings may be formed into clipping lists such as the clipping list having title block 180 with title Product Presentation shown in
After clippings, i.e., clipping views of windows, have been formed and located in the peripheral region 120 using the process illustrated in
Clippings, formed and located using the processes described above, contain images selected from the contents of the windows with which the clippings are associated. A property of clippings is the ability to reflect changes in the selected contents of the windows with which the clippings are associated. For example, a clipping for a Presentation application may contain a selected image of a progress bar that appears in a Presentation window. As the progress bar changes, the selected image of the progress bar in the clipping is updated to reflect the changes in the progress bar that appears in the Presentation window. Conversely, if the selected content of a window does not change, the selected image in the clipping does not change. An exemplary clipping associated with a window with unchanging content is shown in
Exemplary clipping lists, formed by the process illustrated by the functional flow diagram in
How clippings are combined to form clipping lists is illustrated in
It is possible to hide all of the windows in the plurality of windows 105A, 105B, etc., and form clippings and clipping lists for the windows. This possibility is shown in
Clippings may be used to replace the clutter of randomly placed windows with orderly clipping lists that are associated with tasks. Clippings organized by task allows users to better understand what tasks, and what windows for those tasks, are available. Often, a user must wait for certain computer processes to complete before proceeding with the work in a window. It is helpful to know when computer processes have completed in a window. A way to detect when a computer process in a window has completed is to monitor the contents of the window and detect when the contents of the window are changing and when the contents of the window have stopped changing.
Detecting when the contents of the window are changing and when the contents of the window have stopped changing may be accomplished by periodically comparing pixels in predetermined positions in the window contents to pixels in the same positions in the clipping contents. For example, a region of a window, which contains rows of pixels, is selected and copied to create a clipping image. The clipping image is placed in a clipping for the window. Periodically, pixels in the clipping image of the clipping are compared to pixels in the same positions in the original region of the window. If one or more pixels have changed, i.e., the color of the pixels have changed, the image has changed, i.e., is changing. If, after a predetermined number of periods, e.g., five periods, the pixels in the original region of the window have not changed relative to the pixels in the clipping image of the clipping, the image is determined to have ceased changing. To reduce the computational load, not all pixels need to be compared. For example, a set of every 64th pixel in a clipping image may be compared to the same set of pixels in an original window region.
A way to signal the user when the contents of windows are changing and when the contents have stopped changing is to provide borders for the clippings associated with the windows. Changing the color of a clipping's border can be used to reflect the state of the window associated with the clipping. The colors of the borders that indicate the state of the clippings and clipping lists can be driven by a state machine. An exemplary state machine for indicating the state of the clippings and/or clipping lists is illustrated in
As in
The process illustrated in
As in
Instead of using colored borders as a visual cue to indicate the state of clippings and clipping lists as illustrated in
While illustrative embodiments have been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, while a process for forming clipping lists by moving one clipping near another clipping has been described above, it is also possible to form clipping lists by detecting similarities in the function and/or content of windows associated with clippings and forming clipping lists from clippings associated with windows of similar function and/or content.

As of now ICONIC is only sold in the U.S., but we hope to be in other parts of the world soon.
Yes, ICONIC Protein is safe to drink while pregnant.
ICONIC has 20g of protein and 4g of fiber to fill you up, but only 130 calories. We do not suggest as a full meal replacement, but it is ideal for a snack.
We source our protein from New Zealand where the farmers raise their cows hormone free and allow them to graze in the open pastures.
No, but ICONIC does contain a mix of organic and natural ingredients. ICONIC contains no artificial ingredients.
Our Grass Fed Milk Protein Isolate is actually a mix of whey and casein, and is one of the few milk proteins that is lactose free.
We understand that those statements seem to be in conflict with one another. The milk protein isolate we use is actually lactose free, but it does come from the milk of grass-fed hormone free cows. That means legally we are required list "CONTAINS MILK" in the allergen section of the nutrition label.
Yes, ICONIC is made with protein that is free of any hormones.
Our product is gluten and wheat free.
The Cafe au Lait flavor is the only one with caffeine. There is about 180mg per bottle.
There are some resellers of ICONIC that mark up the price of ICONIC. Unfortunately we do not have control over this.
ICONIC is "shelf stable", meaning it can be kept at an ambient temperature. We suggest serving chilled, but it does not have to be kept refrigerated if it has not been opened. Once it has been opened it needs to be refrigerated and should last about a week.
There is a date stamp on each bottle (usually on the top of the cap) that lists the "best by" date.

Dear Mr. Higgins,
I was wondering if your party would hold a position on whether TD's salaries should be index linked to Government revenue i.e. if gov revenue was to increase it would lead to an increase in TD's salaries however if gov revenue fell then salaries would fall too. This could be linked to a specific revenue source e.g. income tax receipts.
This would help avoid any grand standing on the level of TD's salaries and also avoid it being used as a political football, as good returns would see rewards and poor returns would see a fall on pay.
I would be interested to know what you think
Colm Bergin
09/10/2013 - 18:43
Dear Colm,
Thank you for your message. Joe Higgins and the Socialist Party have a very different view on TDs salaries than what you are describing as we believe that TDs should be on an average industrial wage.
Kind Regards,
Eleni Vetsika
Dail Assistant to Joe Higgins TD

Yarn Expo, China's leading trade platform for upstream yarns and fibre suppliers, will once again feature alongside Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles from 29 – 31 August 2011 at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre in hall W5, covering an exhibition space of 3,000 sqm.
The fair will focus on a range of products including natural fibres and yarns including cotton, wool, silk and linen/ramie; regenerated and synthetic man-made fibres and yarns; specialty products; elastic, fancy and blended yarns; and computer-related services.
To date the fair has attracted nearly 70 exhibitors from seven countries and regions including China, Hong Kong, India, Pakistan, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Many of the participating suppliers are returnees, such Aswakowit Co Ltd from Thailand, Gul Ahmed Textile Mills Ltd from Pakistan, Kaybee Exim Pte Ltd from Singapore, Premier Mills Lit from India and Jiangsu Jinfang Textile Group from China.
China's fibre consumption to reach 51.5 million tons by 2015
Mr Sun Ruizhe, Vice President for China National Textile and Apparel Council as well as editor-in-chief for China Textile Leader, recently estimated that: "overall fibre consumption in China will top 51.5 million tons by the year-end of 2015, increasing roughly 10 millions ton compared with the year-end of 2010."
In 2010 , overall fibre consumption reached 41.3 million tons, indicating that China's buoyant domestic market will stimulate positive growth for the next five years, making it a marketplace rich with opportunity for industry suppliers from around the world.
Yarn Expo is organised by Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, the Sub-Council of Textile Industry – CCPIT, China Cotton Textile Association, China Wool Textile Association, China Chemical Fibres Association, China Bast & Leaf Fibres Textiles Association, and China Textile Information Centre.

online home electronics an't recommend this brand enough esp if you want to lose a bit of weight. Imagine what I could achieve if I actually exercised! These trainers are the most comfortable I've ever worn. They do what they say on the box when you first start wearing them you can really feel your muscles working. My advice would be to buy half a size smaller than usual as they tend to be on the large side. Great value would definately buy again. I have very wide feet and recently had an operation which made my ankles and legs stiff, the muscles have not come back. I thought these would be a good idea to try to get them back, I have had real difficulty getting them on not really very wide, I would say slightly wider than an average trainer, but certainly not wide. I normally take an EEE fitting. I found them odd at first as they rock back and fore but once I wal Monterrey 's the sign of quality and a good fit. I've had a pair of Moab Ventilator Mid Boots for a year now and wear them all the time, pretty much every day and they're still in excellent nick so I've bought a pair of these shoes for this summer and they're every bit as good! Comfy straight out of the box and a real pleasure to wear no matter how long you're on your feet for. One thing though... They're ever so small for their size, I take a 46 (11uk) but in these I wear a 49 (13uk) so be warned! All in all, worth every penny and more! I am a safari guide in africa, and i swear by Merrell! I wear these shoes every day and hike over rough terrain anything from 5-8 hrs a day. They are the only shoes that last me over a year with constant use! They're incredibly light weight, well ventilated, and have really comfortable soles, as well as great grip on rough terrain, whether up or down hill. I've also bought other merrell shoes and in my opinion they can't be rivaled for outdoor footwear! I am delighted with these shoes. The kite sale and downright depressed lawyer.

Background----------Let me start by pointing out I took some time to test the boot.
kiteboarding or kitesurfing ng about I defo will be buying more an I will recommend to others very happy customer
These leather shoes is just what I needed for my baby at her nursery she a small 11month old and the 6-12month size are slightly to big however they still stay on and she has room for her feet to grow hopefully they will last till she's walking.
I bought these for my grandson, we have had trouble keeping any other shoes on his feet, although are a little large for him they stay on, and so I have purchased a couple more pairs in smaller size, Perfect for babies just finding there feet.
Received these darling little shoes less than 24hrs after placing my order! Exceptional service and the shoes are as lovely as you'd exttle practice one hand and one foot is all you need but please have a practice run BEFORE you take this out as it can be a little fiddley to do quickly especially if you other hand is full of a grouchy toddler or the weather has taken a turn fo the worse so practice is key before you take it out. Speaking of the weather I was please to notice this stroller DOES come with a raincover, you would be surprised how many strollers (some more expensive that this) that want you to put your hands back in your pocket again for such items as a rain cover but this one comes supllied thankfully. This stroller states it can be used from new born however as adjustable as it is I personally would not be happy putting my new born in this stroller, its definately more suitable Hollister sale ght and the colours are eyecatching!
Gorgeous, comfy and light
The wearer was very happy with everything about her trainers
They are very nice and if it's well my girl was very happy, thank you !I will recommend this Skechers .
My daughter adores these light and comfy trainers. I bought them as they were such a bargain price and they are excellent value. The colours are bright and attractive and she has had many compliments from her friends who all want to know where she got them. She now claims she can 'run like the wind' in her light yet supportive Skechers Girls trainers.
This book is a must for any shoe lover. Taking on a role as the little black book of shoe supra skytop to work as a shock absorber for the Zoom H1 (using onboard mics), you'd be better off looking else where.
Agree with the other reviewer, it barely improves on hand holding for the Zoom H1. It's fair to say this is at least partly due to the Zoom, which seems incredibly sensitive to microphony. The holder comes with lots of accessories and spare bands and is well made - from that angle it can't be faulted - would be fine for static work.
This set of shock mount, shoe mount and handle is very good and works well.I have used the shock mount with the handle to hold an AKG D230 'reporter's mic' to reduce handling noise, and it does the job. It comes with a spare set of rubber bands.It has done the job for me anyway - I have ordered another.It's all plastic , so won't ta.

Koch's analysis, which is concise without sacrificing thoroughness or sophistication, covers both Kracauer's best-known publications (e.g., From Caligari to Hitler, in which he gleans the roots of National Socialism in the films of the Weimar Republic) and previously underexamined texts, including two newly discovered autobiographical novels. Because Kracauer's wide-ranging works emerge from no rigidly unified approach, instead always remaining open to unusual and highly individual perspectives, Koch resists the temptation to force generalization. She does, however, identify recurring tropes in Kracauer's lifetime effort to perceive the basic posture and composition of particular cultures through their visual surfaces. Koch also finds in Kracauer a surprisingly contemporary cultural commentator, whose ideas speak directly to current discussions on film, urban modernity, feminism, cultural representation, violence, and other themes.
This book was long-awaited in Germany, as well as widely and well reviewed. Now translated into English for the first time, it will fuel already growing interest in the United States, where Kracauer lived and wrote from 1941 until his death in 1966. It will attract the attention of students and scholars working in Film Studies, German Studies, Comparative Literature, Critical Theory, Cultural Studies, Philosophy, and History.

Green Bay 20, Tampa Bay 13
TAMPA, Florida (Ticker) -- Thanks to Ahman Green and Najeh
Davenport, Chad Clifton and Mike Sherman exacted a measure of
revenge against the Super Bowl champions.
Green and Davenport combined for 179 rushing yards as the Green
Bay Packers leveled another blow to the playoff hopes of the
Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a 20-13 victory.
Last season, the Bucs intercepted Brett Favre four times en
route to a 21-7 home win over the Packers. But the dominant
defensive performance hardly was the story.
The game was overshadowed by an obscenity-laced exchange between
Warren Sapp, the Buccaneers' five-time Pro Bowl defensive
tackle, and Sherman, the Packers' coach, as the two walked off
the field after the game. At one point, Sapp screamed at
Sherman, "If you think you're so tough, why don't you put on a
Sherman was upset with a legal but blindside block by Sapp that
left Clifton, an offensive tackle, with a career-threatening
pelvic injury.
"We obviously said something about it before the game," Packers
guard Mike Wahle said. "Gilbert (Brown) made a very moving
speech about how personal the game is. Chad has to feel more
satisfaction about this game than anybody because he played his
butt off."
Clifton returned after extensive rehabilitation and led a
dominant effort by the Packers' offensive line in this one. He
helped the Packers amass 190 yards on the ground while holding
the Bucs without a sack for the first time in 70 games. Sapp
also was a non-factor as he finished with two tackles.
"I was able to come back and this is the 10th game I've played
in," Clifton said. "I haven't missed any playing time, so I
look forward to putting this behind me."
Sapp and Bucs coach Jon Gruden gave credit to the Packers.
"Green Bay won it. You have to take your hat off to a ballclub
whenever they come to your house, a place where they've never
won, and get a hard-fought victory out of it," Sapp said. "They
"I credit not only their scheme, but I credit the size, the
strength and the will of their football team," Gruden added.
Green led the rushing attack, carrying 21 times for 109 yards.
His one-yard run with 8:54 left in the contest capped a 17-play,
98-yard drive and snapped a 13-13 tie. The drive lasted nearly
10 minutes.
"It was 98 1/2 (yards), actually," Sherman said. "It was about
as long as they get. Heck of a drive. The offensive line took
control of the game. Key third-down conversions and we ran the
ball effectively."
Davenport added 70 yards for Green Bay (5-5), which snapped a
five-game road losing streak against Tampa Bay.
The big days by Green and Davenport also helped makeup for a
stagnant Brett Favre, who completed just 13-of-28 passes for 92
yards, one touchdown and one interception. Favre also appeared
to aggravate an injury to his broken right thumb, but he was
able to win for the first time in six tries at Raymond James
"Losing to Tampa Bay here the last five or six years is tough to
take, but they're a great defense," Favre said. "We're losing
to a great team. Not that it makes it any easier, but when you
beat a team like this at their place, it kind of feels good."
Brad Johnson passed for a touchdown and Thomas Jones rushed for
134 yards for the Bucs (4-6), who fell to a woeful 1-4 at home.
Tampa Bay is four games behind first-place Carolina in the NFC
South with six games to play.
"The only way to stop the bleeding is come back and fight," Bucs
linebacker Derrick Brooks said. "It's been a long time since
we've been in this situation."
A 27-yard punt return by Antonio Chatman in Tampa Bay territory
helped set up Favre's five-yard touchdown pass to running back
Tony Fisher midway through the first quarter.
Ryan Longwell and Martin Gramatica each booted two field goals
in the second quarter, leaving the Packers with a 13-6 halftime
lead. Tampa Bay committed two turnovers and had five penalties
in the opening half.
On the first play from scrimmage in the third quarter, Jones
ripped off a 51-yard run that led to Johnson's three-yard TD
toss to Keenan McCardell, tying it at 13-13. Johnson went
17-of-28 for 149 yards, was intercepted twice and sacked three

My husband pays a super high rate of child support to his ex wife. I say super high because when we lived in Hawaii he received almost triple the salary he makes here in West Virginia and Child Support for whatever reason it may be has taken almost over 2 years to change the amount he pays to equal the amount of money he makes now. Well because of this she has made at least $18,000 a year off of him while she sits all day at home doing nothing (she doesn't have a job and the kids are in school). Because CPS has not done anything to change how much he should send her 55% of his paycheck is taken away from us every paycheck. Not to mention I had the hardest time getting a job when we moved and the only ones I could get paid at most $10 an hour. Well long story short I now make a decent salary but all of the debt we accrued in the past 2 years (because we could not pay all of our previous bills) has now caught up to us and to no avail we can not stay in the positive in our banking account and I have no clue what to do. We are both looking into picking up 2nd jobs but we have a 13 month old and on the holidays and summer we get my 2 step daughters so it makes it hard to do that and have family time. We have tried to get loans to help pull us out for the moment so we can stabilize and start over but no one will help.
What do you all suggest?
Tessa... The child support office is what is killing us and we are not sure why they are delaying putting the requests through. I feel for you about they child care cost because that is what we were going through over the summer. But what is even worse is like you getting a higher paying job when we first came to West Virginia was the hardest thing to do and took almost two years... sadly I have a Masters degree but no one wanted to higher me because they would have to pay me more because of my degree (crap!). However, I would also suggest the debt consolidation to you. We were paying maybe a $1000 or more a month on past debt and the debt consolidation guy said that we could now pay only $450 a month for his company to close our debt in 3 years (huge difference). Maybe that would work for you too. Good luck and if you need anyone to vent to or talk about that kinda stuff let me know!

Sternoclavicular joint septic arthritis following paraspinal muscle abscess and septic lumbar spondylodiscitis with epidural abscess in a patient with diabetes: a case report
Septic arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) is extremely rare, and usually appears to result from hematogenous spread. Predisposing factors include immunocompromising diseases such as diabetes.
Case presentation
A 61-year-old man with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus presented to our emergency department with low back pain, high fever, and a painful mass over his left SCJ. He had received two epidural blocks over the past 2 weeks for severe back and leg pain secondary to lumbar disc herniation. He did not complain of weakness or sensory changes of his lower limbs, and his bladder and bowel function were normal. He had no history of shoulder injection, subclavian vein catheterization, intravenous drug abuse, or focal infection including tooth decay. CT showed an abscess of the left SCJ, with extension into the mediastinum and sternocleidomastoid muscle, and left paraspinal muscle swelling at the level of L2. MRI showed spondylodiscitis of L3-L4 with a contiguous extradural abscess.
Diabetic patients with
Septic arthritis of the sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) is an unusual infection
Case presentation
A 61-year-old Japanese man was transported to our critical care and emergency center by ambulance with fever, exacerbation of pain in his lower back and both legs, and a painful mass over his left SCJ.
Approximately 3 months previously, he had consulted an orthopedic surgeon because of low back and leg pain. He had been diagnosed with disc herniation at L4-L5, and had been hospitalized for bed-rest and treatment. While hospitalized, he had received several intravenous injections of sodium salicylate, but no peripheral intravenous catheter had been inserted. About 2 months after discharge, he had been referred to our outpatient anesthesiology department because of ongoing leg pain. Two weeks before presentation, he had received his first epidural block using 6 ml of 0.8% mepivacaine hydrochloride at the L4-L5 level, injected via the paramedian approach. Two days before presentation, a second epidural block using 5 ml of 0.8% mepivacaine hydrochloride had been administered at the same level. The skin had been disinfected with 5% chlorhexidine solution prior to needle insertion on both occasions. His medical history included hypertension and diabetes, for which he was taking antihypertensive and hypoglycemic agents, respectively. He had no history of trauma, shoulder injection, subclavian vein catheterization, or intravenous drug abuse. He did not have any focal dental infection or signs of tooth decay. He was unable to walk, due to increased leg pain. The day prior to admission, he experienced a fever of 39 °C.
On examination, he was in moderate respiratory distress and mildly diaphoretic, with a blood pressure of 97/51 mmHg, pulse rate of 95 beats/min, respiratory rate of 28 breaths/min, temperature of 39.5 °C, and oxygen saturation of 80% on room air. His oxygen saturation improved to 92% with oxygen administration (2 l/min by nasal cannula). Examination of the oral cavity and pharynx was normal, and there was no cervical lymphadenopathy. Chest examination was unremarkable except for swelling and severe tenderness over the left SCJ. Lumbar spine examination showed stiffness, with tenderness over the vertebrae. Movement of the lower back and pressure over the lumbar spine caused pain. The straight leg raising test and femoral nerve stretch test were inconclusive bilaterally because of lower back muscle spasm. His lower limb muscle power, knee and ankle reflexes, and sensation were normal. Bladder and bowel function were normal.
Laboratory testing showed the following results: plasma white blood cell count (WBC) 18,490/mm3, platelet count 541,000/mm3, hemoglobin 9.0 g/dl, C-reactive protein 22.9 mg/dl, fasting blood glucose 335 mg/dl, glycosylated hemoglobin 8.1%, blood urea nitrogen 23.7 mg/dl, creatinine 0.73 mg/dl, glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase 59 IU/l, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase 62 IU/l, cholinesterase 134 IU/l, alkaline phosphatase 600 IU/l, lactate dehydrogenase 381 IU/l, and creatine kinase 566 IU/l. US examination of the left SCJ suggested pyogenic arthritis with involvement of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. The chest X-ray was normal, and there were no abnormalities on ECG or cardiac US. CT showed erosion and abscess formation of the SCJ with extension of the abscess into the mediastinum (Figures

The patient's general condition improved significantly and his fever subsided after 4 days. The wound at the SCJ was irrigated daily. Twelve days after the onset of treatment, his plasma WBC was 7,050/mm3 with 78% neutrophils. Two weeks after admission, there was a still a non-tender swelling over the left SCJ, but the purulent secretion had completely resolved. Neurological examination of the lower limbs was unchanged. Eight weeks after admission, he was transferred to the spinal surgery unit to undergo evaluation for operative treatment of his spondylitis and epidural abscess.
It is likely that this patient's epidural block caused the paraspinal muscle abscess and nearby lumbar spondylodiscitis, and that this iatrogenic infection spread hematogenously to the SCJ.
Septic arthritis most commonly affects the weight-bearing joints of the lower limb, which account for 61-79% of all reported cases of septic arthritis
Septic arthritis of the SCJ is extremely rare, comprising 0.5–1% of all joint infections
The pathogenesis of SCJ infection is not well understood, but it appears to result from either hematogenous or contiguous spread. Various factors have been identified as predisposing to the development of SCJ infections, including immunocompromising diseases such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, renal dysfunction, and human immunodeficiency virus infection
Paraspinal muscle infection, a pyogenic infection of skeletal muscle, is rarely reported. Modes of infection include transcutaneous infection by needles or catheters, surgery, blunt trauma, and hematogenous spread from distant sites.
Spondylodiscitis, a term encompassing vertebral osteomyelitis, spondylitis, and discitis, is a rare medical emergency. Spinal epidural abscess is also uncommon, and requires early detection and appropriate treatment to prevent severe morbidity and mortality
Hematogenous osteomyelitis usually occurs in patients over 50 years of age and accounts for 3-5% of all cases of osteomyelitis. The incidence of hematogenous osteomyelitis is estimated to be 4 to 24 per million per year in developed countries. Pathogens may infect the spine via three routes: hematogenous spread, direct external inoculation, and spread from contiguous tissues
In adults, the vertebral intraosseous metaphyseal artery is an end-artery, and a septic embolism in a metaphyseal artery causes a large wedge-shaped infarct of a subdiscal area of bone. The subsequent spread of infection to the neighboring disc and vertebra creates the characteristic lesion of spondylodiscitis

SARASOTA, Fla. -- John Buchan, co-owner of High Noon Guns in Sarasota, has probably seen countless unique items come across his counter, but none near as meaningful as what he stumbled upon a short time ago.
Recently, Buchan was able to get his hands on a rare Nazi naval battle flag in a trade. His original intent was to sell it to a collector. But after examining the flag further, he found names of soldiers written on the white circle.
"You've got Private First Class Ranieri, Detroit, Michigan, you have a CPL. Harold Moyer, address missing, you've got SGT. Robert Curtis, you've got SGT Carl Heitger, Sturgis, Michagan. His son is actually the one getting the flag."
John Buchan reads off a few names of the ten WWII soldiers who signed a capture Nazi Naval flag. The flag was brought into the High Noon Guns shop where Buchan is a co-owner and offered for trade. "A lot of these things come through the door, you never know what is coming through the door that is the cool part about it."
He says the flag is worth about $600 and planed to sell it to a collector before he noticed the G.I.'s signatures. "At that point I changed my whole theory I was going to keep it. My whole plan changed," said Buchan. "Because of what's on it it is no longer a Nazi Flag, it is an American flag, it has got American signatures on it and these guys fought for it."
After reading the names he started thinking about the ten men who signed the flag and his plan changed once again. "They fought for it and that sort of hit something inside me. And the next thing I know I am on the internet trying to track these old guys down. Unfortunately from what I found they have all passed on."
But he did locate the son of one of the G.I.'s, Mark Heitger, who lives in Indiana. "So we are going to send the flag back to who I think deserves it; somebody who was in this unit and it is going back into the family."
Buchan plans to keep the flag at his gun store for a few days before boxing it up and sending to Heitger as a gift.
ABC7 reached Mark Heitger by phone on Friday. He said his father rarely spoke about his service in the war but he knew his dad was a medic who fought in seven major battles including Normandy and The Battle of the Bulge.
Heitger plans to have the flag framed so it can be displayed in VFW Hall where is father used to hang out.

Major League Soccer's disciplinary committee has suspended D.C. United forward Eddie Johnson one game for a "reckless challenge" against Montreal goalkeeper Troy Perkins during last weekend's 1-1 draw at RFK Stadium.
Johnson, who was also fined an undisclosed amount, will miss Wednesday's home match against the Houston Dynamo.
On Johnson's behalf, the MLS players' union appealed the suspension Tuesday. It was denied. He practiced with the team earlier in the day as he awaited the ruling. Conor Doyle is likely to start in place of Johnson, who scored his first goal of the season against Montreal. It was Johnson's first appearance since being left off the U.S. World Cup training camp roster.
The league fined Johnson a second time — again, an undisclosed figure — for making contact with Wandrille Lefevre's face during a scuffle that followed the Perkins sequence.

The contest blog you made, why even bother??? The wikis are leaving, angry, and users are gone, yet you want us to choose the best wiki??? I already said this, but you deletyed my comment so I'll put it in my own blog so it doesn't seem like spam:
I choose none of them. There's just no point for the following reasons:
- This year, my wiki worked to improve it's look, but Oasis destroyed all that work.
- Alot of friendly, new users arrived, but with the new skin they're leaving and the ones that stayed are blaming each other because of the stress.
- Fun activities like roleplaying exploded, but with awful editing roleplays are at a halt and no one's editing at all.
- We'd love to have more advertising, but we'll be moved soon, so what's the point.
Seriously Wikia, why make a contest that's so meaningless???

1 Introduction
[2] Isotope ratios are excellent tracers of atmospheric source and loss processes over planetary timescales. In the case of Martian oxygen and carbon, atmospheric evolution models must account for the exchange between atmospheric and surface/subsurface reservoirs [Jakosky, 1991; Webster et al., 2013]. The potential for exchange of nitrogen between the atmosphere and surface of Mars is not currently understood, but such exchange would be very important to the study of Martian habitability that is the focus of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) mission [Grotzinger et al., 2012].
[3] The atmospheric nitrogen isotopic ratio is difficult to measure. Very weak absorption lines are produced by the dipole forbidden vibrational-rotational transitions of ground state N2, so the spectroscopic techniques used to measure isotope ratios in other molecules cannot be applied to molecular nitrogen. Of the 10 science instruments of the MSL payload [Grotzinger et al., 2012], Sample Analysis at Mars's (SAM's) mass spectrometer provides the best capability to measure the nitrogen isotopic ratio [Mahaffy et al., 2012]. Independent measurements of14N/15N were conducted by mass spectrometers on Viking Lander 2 [Owen et al., 1977; Owen, 1992] and the two Viking lander aeroshells [Nier and McElroy, 1977]. The surface and descent measurements found14N/15N of 170 ± 15 and 168 ± 17, respectively.

INDUSTRY INDICATORS VI III :) VI VI - ø z - VI VI III It: a. - MWV Receives SFI and PEFC Certifications Global packaging leader MWV an- nounced it has received chain of cus- tody certification to the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) program and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes (PEFC) chain of custody standards. The certifi- cation provides third-party validation of MWV's sustainable fiber sourcing prac- tices, and helps assure its customers and consumers of the company's responsible environmental stewardship. Chain of custody is the process of tracking and recording the possession and transfer of wood fiber from the forest of origin, through manufacture, production and processing stages and, ultimately, to its end use. The dual certification covers the com- pany's four U.S.-based paperboard mills in Covington, VA., Evadale, TX, Mahrt, AL., and Charleston, sc. The certifica- tions also apply to the company's sheet- ing and extruding facilities in Low Moor, VA., Silsbee, TX, and Venlo, Netherlands, as well as 12 of the company's integrat- ed package converting plants in North America, Europe and Asia. Under the certification, MWV's pa- perboard products will begin carrying the SFI certification label. Customers serviced from the company's convert- ing facilities that have obtained the dual Harpers Inducted into NTHS Hall of Fame Founders of the global anilox manufacturer Harper Corporation of America, Ron and Katherine Harper, have been inducted into the National Technical Honor Society (NTHS) Hall of Fame for Educational Excellence. The induction is concurrent with the couple's winning of the Silver Star Award, which is presented jointly by the American Technical Education Association (A TEA) and the National Technical Honor Society (NTHS), and recognizes exceptional support and commitment to advancing postsec- ondary technical education. "The sheer volume of what Ron and Katherine Harper have done to further technical education is astonishing," said Betty Krump, executive director of the A TEA. Krump flew to Charlotte for a special awards dinner to present the Harpers with the Silver Star Award, which includes a large, framed and mat- ted NTHS Hall of Fame award citation and a handsome medallion. Rich Wagner, vice president of Academic Affairs at Dunwoody College of Technology in Minneapolis, MN, nominated the Harpers for the award. Active NTHS chapters are invited to submit names of heroes who give gen- erously to the students, schools, and other entities that make up the techni- cal community. Ron and Katherine Harper are the founding sponsors of the Flexographic Technical Association's TEST (Technical Education Services Team). FLEXO 2008 JUNE www.flexography.org chain of custody certification may label their products as well. FDA Approves UV/EB Inks for Food Contact The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Food Contact Notification (FCN) 772 to allow direct food contact with UV or EB ink and coating formulations. FCN 772 clears that the UV- or EB-cured formulations may be used as coatings or components of coatings (both including inks) on polymeric substrates, paper and paper- board, metal substrates, or as a compo- nent in adhesives. FCN 772 has been promoted by the Food Notification Alliance, a sub-group of RadTech USA, starting from its estab- lishment in 2004. Since then, the FDA evaluated the work done by the Alliance and after long and accurate analysis provided the notification's clearance that allows any combination of cleared materials in direct food contact, and it is expected to widen the use of UV and EB in food packaging. This is the first time that a regula- tory institution defines measurable threshold values under which the use of UV technology for food packaging is allowed. Coast Paper Enters Flexo Market Coast Paper is pleased to announce its entry into the flexographic print- ing supplies business with two flagship product lines. The first will be Kodak Flexcel Printing Plates, including the re- cently developed Flexcel NX System. The Flexcel NX Plate delivers flat tops with a stable shape for consistent dots as small as 10 microns and true size dots. Coast also sells Kodak CTP devices, proofing devices and software, as well as analog flexo plates to support this business.

text: When it comes to Baby Boomers and retirement preparedness, a little self-restraint and planning makes a big impact on success, according to a new Investor Index Survey released by TD Ameritrade, Inc. ("TD Ameritrade"), a broker-dealer subsidiary of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation (NYSE:AMTD). The survey was conducted among both non-retired and semi- or fully-retired Baby Boomers and unveiled key characteristics and behavioral differences among respondents who consider themselves financially prepared for retirement ("Prepared") and those who reported they are financially unprepared for retirement ("Unprepared"). Successful Boomers are Conservative, Even in Good TimesMore than half (54%) of Prepared Boomers reported that when times are good financially, they remain conservative with their money, compared to just 35 percent of Unprepared Boomers who reported the same. Similarly, 41 percent of Unprepared Boomers admitted they are more carefree with their money when times are good, compared to just 30 percent of Prepared Boomers. And when asked if they tend to be patient and plan things carefully, 53 percent of Prepared Boomers agreed, compared to 38 percent of Unprepared Boomers. "Financial discipline for anyone is tough, and it's especially challenging for Boomers who grew up during a time when self-realization and fulfillment was the norm," said Lule Demmissie, managing director, investment products and retirement, TD Ameritrade. "Despite the challenges, it's imperative that all Americans embrace a more regimented approach to saving for retirement if they expect to be prepared for the future." Financial Success Impacted by Personal Choices, Parental CommunicationOverall, Prepared Boomers seemed to make better financial choices than those Boomers who did not successfully prepare for retirement. They started saving significantly earlier than Unprepared Boomers (median age 30 versus 35). They're also significantly more likely to save for retirement by having money automatically deducted from their pay than those who are Unprepared (74% vs. 54%). However, it's worth noting that Prepared Boomers were slightly more likely to have family who could help fund college expenses or a new home compared to Unprepared Boomers. Unprepared Boomers also reported having greater than average health care expenses.

As VB (4.9 per cent alcohol) and XXXX Gold (3.5 per cent alcohol) vie for Australia's most-popular beer crown, Coopers has announced a sales surge in the very different zero-alcohol beer market.
The Adelaide brewer says sales of Holsten 0.0% increased 20 per cent in the last year. Coopers expects consumption to continue growing after decisions by national liquor outlets to range it alongside normal beers, not soft drinks.
Cooper's Scott Harris said increasing sales in Australia "reflect the situation in the rest of the world, where no alcohol beers make up to 13 per cent of total beer sales in some European countries".
Market research group Mintel recently reported particularly strong interest in zero-alcohol beer in Spain and Germany. European commentators attribute growing success largely to health consciousness and improved flavour. German-made Holsten, for example, is brewed like a normal beer, with the alcohol removed afterwards.
Otway Brewing Prickly Moses Chainsaw Ale 330ml $4.45
We pushed past the murky, bilge-water colour to find a refreshing ale, with the light body and pleasantly tart acidity derived from brewing with malted wheat. Wheat ales often come with sweet, fruity notes. Instead, Chainsaw gives the pleasant herbal, spicy notes of hops – but without pronounced bitterness.
Feral Brewing Co Boris Russian Imperial Stout 330ml $7.25
As black as the local swans, this Swan Valley stout, at 9.1 per cent alcohol, storms onto the palate with its intense dark-chocolate and roasted coffee-bean flavours. The alcohol lends a sweetness to the overall opulence of a stout meant to be enjoyed in small doses, perhaps with a plate of nuts or Christmas cake.
