The easiest thing today is making a CMS-Website. This stands for Content Management System. It uses a database. So the webspace of your provider should offfer database support for mysql-databases for example. You need about 100mb of webspace to start with. If you want to add a Photo-Gallery you need more webspace of course. There are many webspace providers with different pricing and offers that are worth comparing. Ask for the best webspace-providers. Then you install A CMS like for example Joomla! on your webspace. Joomla! is one of the best CMS and very easy to use. You can make a really easy website and use it for even professional websites. So starting with a CMS you have all the possibilities to go on developing for years without experiencing any borders or stuff you cannot do. An alternative would be a static html website which I would not recommend. This website would be written in html and you would have to enter in the source code for any content change. In a CMS like Joomla! you just enter a backend that is very user-friendly and the text-editors MS Word-like. You just write your text, choose where on your site to publish and click on "Publish" and there you go. Just surf to http://www.Joomla.org[1] and enjoy the biggest community you will find for a CMS. All the people there are very helpful and friendly and get you started and guide you through the process. Calculate about 2 months of relaxed reading, searching, looking up questions and so on after work if you start from zero to have your own website I would say. You should already start and write content whenever possible so when you have your website you can publish stuff which is most important to get listed on search-engines. Moreover knowing what you want to publish helps you in designing the menu structure of your website. Cheers and enjoy. Fabs
For example for some great joomla-websites have a look here:

Working at Zene za Zene International
When I told anyone I was going to Bosnia this summer, the basic reaction I got was confusion. Everyone was supportive & excited, but definitely surprised. I was pretty surprised too. When you sign up for experiences like this, you never know where you will end up. In this case I've had the good fortune of ending up at Women for Women International, and wanted to take time to shed light on the both the organization & the people who do pretty amazing work here & around the world.
The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina actually led directly to the inception of Women for Women International, after the founders came here in the early 90s to volunteer with the aid process. While they quickly realized that women would be the most marginalized group in post-war Bosnia, no grass roots efforts were in place to help them recover. In 1993 Women for Women International officially launched, and has since expanded to bring direct aid to over 153,000 women survivors in warn torn countries around the world, serving today in Iraq, Sudan, Democratic Republic of the Congo, just to name a few.
Zene za Zene is one of two sites (along with Women for Women Afghanistan) to focus on microcredit services, along with the educational & job skills training programs they run to prepare disadvantaged women for the workforce. Around 60% of their clients on Kiva work in agriculture & raise livestock in the country's small villages—in a stagnant economy it's the only option many people have. Poverty is an issue that affects women of all ages & backgrounds. Even those who own land can have pretty meager incomes, and most lack real access to capital except through microfinance. In a little over a decade, Zene za Zene has lent over $32 million to women entrepreneurs throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In my time here I work mainly with our Kiva Coordinator, who collects information from credit officers and keeps up with posting & journaling requirements. Credit officers spend most of their time finding & interviewing new borrowers, as well as visiting current clients to ensure their success. In these first 6 months of 2008, Zene za Zene has around 4,900 active clients; that number is likely to double by year's end. As simple as it is to lend on Kiva, the mechanisms to ensure due diligence, social impact, and sustainability keep many people here very busy.
It's funny how when you travel, there is so much anxiety about everything that will be different, you can be put at ease by the smallest things. I was immediately comforted by the familiarity of working in office again, the regular schedule, the abundance of snacks and coffee offered at all times. Working here has kept me from getting too lost—in more ways than one. It's just reassuring to be around some of the millions of people in the world today who work diligently and patiently to help others help themselves. And it's good to know you can find such things in places you'd never knew you'd be.
I wanted to share something about Sarajevo itself, but to keep from making this too long, I have included some pictures below of the old town near where I live, and will hopefully have more to go around in some later updates. Cheers…

Dalek (Episode)
Edit1.06 - Dalek
- Writer: Robert Shearman
- Director: Joe Ahearn
- Producer: Phil Collinson
- First Broadcast: 30th April 2005
Dalek is the Sixth episode in the 2005 series of Doctor Who, featuring Christopher Eccleston as the Ninth Doctor, Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, and Bruno Langely as Adam Mitchell. It was written by Robert Shearmen. It was the first in the reboot of Doctor Who to feature the Doctor's arch nemesis, the Daleks, and was firs broadcasted on the 30th of April 2005.
The episode saw the Doctor and Rose answering a distress signal sent to them in the Tardis. The signal leads them to Henry Van Staten's private museum of alien artefacts. Soon after they are introduced to his only living specimen, held within his 'cage', a Dalek!
Soon after Van Staten learns the Doctor is an alien, and captures him whilst Rose is with Adam Mitchell, a genius in charge of acquiring the alien artefacts. Rose and Adam head towards the cage once more, where, powered by Rose's touch, breaks free!
The Dalek, confused by a lack of orders, begins to exterminate Van Staten's men, before embarking on it's quest to destroy all life on the Planet. Adam escapes from the Dalek, but Rose is trapped with it. Angry the Doctor searches for a weapon to stop the Dalek in the museum.
We now learn the Dalek crash landed on earth, finding its way to the Ascension Islands where it burned in a crater for three days, being driven mad. But hen Rose touched it was able to absorb her genetic material and extrapolate the biomass to re-energise and brake free. But unfortunately this causes the Dalek by Rose's human DNA. The Doctor arrives in time to save Rose, but in fear of living with the shame of being 'impure' the Dalek destroys himself. Which is a bit of a shame.
Ninth Doctor – Christopher Eccleston
Rose Tyler – Billie Piper
Adam Mitchell – Bruno Langley
Henry Van Staten – Corey Johnson
Voice of the Dalek – Nicholas Briggs
This is a piece of concept art of the newly-designed Daleks...
EditWhat an interesting fact...
- This episode is based upon Robert Shearman's Big Finish audioplay, called 'Jubilee'.

A full length interview with Shaun Ratcliff (University of Sydney), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled "Same-sex Marriage debate in Australia: Public opinion and policy congruence", written with DrsAndrea Carson (University of Melbourne) and Yannick Dufresne (Universite Laval)
The abstract for the paper is:
Democratic theory is predicated on the representative role of parties. In particular, representative democracies require that a certain degree of congruence exists between public opinion and the policies pursued by legislators. This paper seeks to identify the degree of this congruence on a particular issue: same sex marriage. This policy area is particularly useful for studying the link between public opinion and legislator policy activity as it is one of the few matters of public concern for which reliable data is available for both voters' preferences in every Australian electorate and the position taken by most legislators in the Australian Federal Parliament. We study the relationship between public opinion on same-sex marriage and legislator's position on this issue, and the individual and environmental factors that condition this relationship, using the unique Vote Compass data, collected during the 2013 federal election campaign, information from the 2011 Census, and advances in public opinion estimation. This methodology is used to create estimates of support for same-sex marriage in all 150 electoral divisions contested in this election. We then estimate the probability a parliamentarian would support same-sex marriage legislation in 2012, 2015 and the likelihood they would change their position from no to yes between these years. This study's findings provide the first Australian test of the relationship between public opinion and legislators' policy positions.
A full length interview with Dr Kcasey McLoughlin (University of Newcastle), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled "Offensive intrusions and protected spaces: The personal, the public and the political" with Jim Jose (University of Newcastle).
The abstract for the paper is:
In 2013 the High Court ruled on whether the application of s.471.12 of the Criminal Code 1995 to prosecute Man Haron Monis (and his partner, Ms Amirah Droudis) for sending offensive material through the postal services contravened their right to free speech. All members of the High Court agreed the material was offensive but in an historic first the Court split on gender lines—the three women judges upheld the constitutional validity of the Criminal Code, whereas the three men judges found for Monis and Droudis. The divergent opinions adopted by the men and women judges in Monis are revealing about contemporary judicial understandings of the public and private spheres, and perhaps the political nature of the personal. We argue that these judicial opinions signal a seismic shift in how at least half the court thought about what properly belonged in which sphere. When these judgments are interpreted in the context of the political discourses which permeated the decision, both within and beyond the High Court, these judicial understandings of the contours of freedom of communication and notions of 'harm', 'home', 'private' and 'public' mean that offensive intrusions are protected, the private space of one's home is not. Further, we argue that the judgments in Monis reveal a propensity to embed linguistic violence within judicial language and in effect give licence to antisocial, violent behaviour. In consequence, the judgments endorse a return to masculinist understandings of political behaviour and democratic practice.
In which the Nerds put away their penchant for kinetic energy weapons and kill ratios to talk about alternatives to war as politics by other means: soft power and cultural diplomacy. With an expert panel they discuss the definition of the concept, its origins and what it looks like in practice, using Australia and China as two key case examples. In the final part of the show, the Nerds talk about a new book on state succession and formation.
With post-show chatter and a book give away!
A full length interview with Farah Naz (University of Sydney), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled "Digital age, extremism and radicalisation"
The abstract for the paper is:
This paper aims to better understand the role of digital media in the age of extremism and radicalisation. Many academic scholarships suggest controlling digital media as a key weapon to control radicalization of the society, but is it possible to control digital media in the 21st century. When it becomes the right of every individual to have factual information about everything. To contribute to the existing scholarship, this study is based on primary and secondary data drawn from a variety of sources: interviews with the youth, terrorists and extremist, police and terrorist investigation officers responsible for terrorist activities, government data, newspaper and journal articles. The sample population will be small and will be taken entirely from Islamabad, Pakistan. The reason for a small sample population is due to the sensitive nature of the topic where information in the public domain is limited and also there is a limited number of individuals ready to speak about it with researcher in this field. This research paper will outline some of the key aspects of the digital media both positive and negative. It will also touch upon some of the problematic misunderstanding of the terms extremism and radicalisation in the digital age, and will draw some lessons to counter extremism and radicalisation in the digital age.
A full length interview with Heath Whiley (University of Tasmania), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled "Appointing royal commissions for political gains: is it a bad thing?"
The abstract for the paper is:
Discourse on royal commissions indicates that they are appointed for either policy advisory or inquisitive reasons. Recent trends in Australia point to a third reason for the appointment of royal commissions, namely their appointment for political advantage. This paper argues that a political advantage through a royal commission occurs through blame avoidance, the shaping of the political agenda and to gain a political edge over competing parties or interests groups. Reviews of recent royal commissions into trade union corruption, natural disasters, child sex abuse and the home insulation program illustrates a developing trend for them to be established for political gain. The act of establishing a royal commission for political advantage can quite commonly be seen as politicising its process, recommendations and conclusions. This can limit its effectiveness because a royal commission is independent from the government that establishes it. This research recognises the seriousness of each royal commission it discusses, and elaborates on both the disadvantages and advantages of their use for political gain.
A full length interview with Dr Joanna Vince (University of Tasmania), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled Swimming in plastic soup: Governance solutions to the marine debris problem", written with Britta Denise Hardesty (CSIRO).
The abstract for the paper is:
Plastic marine debris has been found in every ocean and coastal area in the world (STAP 2011; Ivar do Sul & Costa 2014). The impacts on the marine ecosystem are profound with nearly 700 marine species being found to interact with marine debris through ingestion and/or entanglement (Gall & Thompson 2015; GEF 2012). It is estimated that three quarters or more of litter in our ocean comes from land-based sources (Hardesty et al. 2014) making this as much a transboundary global problem as a local issue. Governance arrangements, at present, are unable to provide the necessary solutions to large scale mitigation, prevention and/or removal of marine debris. We examine the governance arrangements on a global level, and Australia's national and local policy responses. We identify community and market based strategies that are making progress with prevention and removal where government policies are lagging behind. We argue that a new, legally binding international agreement will provide guidance to mitigation on a global scale and that nationally a large scale integrated policy approach can make a difference to the marine debris problem in Australian waters. Integrated policy approaches, also known as type VIII policies (Howlett and del Rio 2015) are regarded as the most complex and difficult policy mixes. Despite being been prone to policy failure as suggested by Vince (2015), we argue that due to the complex, transboundary nature of the marine debris problem and the urgency for mitigation, it is the policy solution that may be most effective.
A full length interview with Dr Nicholas Munn (University of Waikato), recorded at the 2016 Australian Political Studies Association conference at UNSW Australia.
The subject of the interview was his paper, titled "Voting, Rights and Compulsion".
The abstract for the paper is:
In this paper, I examine the benefits to democratic legitimacy conferred by compulsory voting regimes, and question the degree to which these benefits in fact arise from the fact of compulsion, rather than from other aspects of institutional practice which occur (in a jurisdiction like Australia) concurrently with it. In particular, I argue that a significant amount of the benefit of compulsory voting comes not from the fact of voting being compulsory, but from the infrastructure which is required to reasonably support a compulsory voting system. Where this is the case, it is the provision of sufficient voting infrastructure that generates the democratic advantages appealed to by proponents of compulsory voting, and this infrastructure is positive independently of compulsion. I explore whether compulsory voting is a) necessary for, or b) the best way to achieve, the desired outcomes of widespread participation and resulting legitimacy in democratic outcomes. I claim that we can achieve these outcomes without compulsion, and discuss whether we should attempt to do so.

Sir J Suckling read by Classic Poetry Aloud: http://www.classicpoetryaloud.com/ Giving voice to the poetry of the past. --------------------------------------------- Dost see how unregarded now by Sir John Suckling (1609 – 1642) read to mark the death of Sir John Suckling on 3rd July 1642 Dost see how unregarded now That piece of beauty passes? There was a time when I did vow To that alone; But mark the fate of faces; The red and white works now no more on me Than if it could not charm, or I not see. And yet the face continues good, And I have still desires, Am still the selfsame flesh and blood, As apt to melt And suffer from those fires; Oh some kind pow'r unriddle where it lies, Whether my heart be faulty, or her eyes? She ev'ry day her man does kill, And I as often die; Neither her power then, nor my will Can question'd be. What is the mystery? Sure beauty's empires, like to greater states, Have certain periods set, and hidden fates. For hundreds more poetry readings, visit the Classic Poetry Aloud index. Reading Classic Poetry Aloud 2008

Gas economy
By gokee on
Vehicle2001 Ford Ranger 2dr SuperCab XLT 2WD Styleside SB (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
ReviewDriving the Ranger is very comforable. The only thing I hate about it is the fuel economy compared to the one I had before. I had a 1995 Ranger before with a 4 cylinder motor and a 5 speed manual transmission. After I got it I wish I would not have traded. I tried to sell it quick and buy my 95 back but I did not have any luck that quick. The 95 always averaged 26 miles to gallon while this thing is only doing 19 to 20 miles. After I got it I had new spark plugs put in which he said 2 were bad which i seen because my mechanic brings them back to show. The fuel filter he could not even blow through it. I tried it to when he brought it back.
Best FeaturesI like the air condioning which I used very little as it takes fuel. The automatic windows, automatic transmission, the extended cab. It has more umph when I pulled the boat. So if I take longer trips I use the car which gets 30 miles knock around driving..
Worst FeaturesI would like to improve my gas mileage but I guess I done what could to improve it

According to a report here, Google seems to have made an off to acquire WhatsApp for $10 billion. It looks like Facebook beat them out with their offer of $19 billion.
According to the same report, 35% of the deal is in cash.
Sequoia Capital, a venture capital firm, stands to clear $3.4 billion on the deal.

Happy to go back next year.

The Luger Inn was a very lovely place to stay close to Weymouth town and seafront and beach
The Lugger Inn was excellent very clean there is a very good choice of food to choose from the menu in starters mains and sweets.
The owner was very helpful and polite and so were all the staff. Would definitely go back again, there is also free parking there.

The Lugger Inn
Staff are excellent, friendly, helpful couldn't have been better.
Very basic
Small double room, en suite cramped, shower hit and miss whether hot water available, bed ok.
Autumn Break
Very convenient for many Dorset attractions.
Excellent breakfast, Initial thoughts were that Spa bath in room was a bit odd, but warmed to the idea later!

The extra mile
Our return to The Lugger was anything but 'routine' this time, as we had the misfortune to be taken ill on this visit - but staff at The Lugger went to extraordinary lengths to help in every possible way.
They extended their welcome to a second night, to enable us to recover sufficiently to resume our journey, and looked after us day and night.
This is a hotel run by people, not machines and it showed when difficulties arose - they certainly went 'the extra mile' for us.

Great service and comfortable room.
My Father booked this room for us and although it was very pricey, I expected that because it was bank holiday and Weymouth was full.
The Staff were very helpful and when my youngest son left a bag with his DS and a few other things in it, they locked it in the safe until we could return to collect it. The breakfast was excellent, the room comfortable, (it was a family room), but it wasn't easy to find, on a wet and blustery night.

If you don't expect much you'll be okay here
The staff were okay and helpful but the room was tiny, this shouldn't have been £82 our children had a twin room for the same price and that was far bigger.
The bathroom was tiny too. On the surface it was okay but there was limescale in the shower tiles, black grim on the shower door, dust and muck around sink pedastal, dirty toilet brush yuk. The fan was absolutely full of dust and surely couldn't have extracted anything through it. Breakfast was ok but salt and pepper pots were filthy and disgusting. It was all very dated, £50-£65 would've been a more realistic price for the room we got although it was the cleanliness or lack of it that put me off.

text: My house needs a new roof and I am able to get a good price on some shingles GAF basis of a local property manager. I researched and found that GAF had complaints with its base tile (cheap) in the past. Has anyone had recent experience (5 years) with them? Are the packages marked with a date code? If so, how do you read the code? That way you can prevent shingles was problem-prone. I know I should not be priced only for shingles, but are tight financially. Thank you. From what I can tell … The lid [packaging] should have a date of manufacture

Tinting recommendation Bay Area?
Tinting recommendation Bay Area?
I wouldn't mind a suggestion for North Bay as well. Especially for a shop that can handle the 3M Crystalline film.
I have used Auto Mall Tint Specialist in Fremont for my other cars; they are located just a few miles north of the Tesla factory. While I don't have my new car yet, they would be the first place I would check out.
They installed the 3M film on my last car (Volt) and I couldn't be happier. My Volt was one of the first cars built and they took their time figuring out what would work for me. 2+ years later, all is good.
I used Transparent Glass Coating (TGC) in Santa Cruz they one of the best place to tint your glass. I tinted my Nissan Leaf with them. They did a great job I spend about $300. You can get your Model S tinted in Santa Cruz, Monterey,or San Jose http://www.transparentglasscoatings.com
Auto Image in Belmont, they have done a ton of Model S including mine. In addition to tint they also did my clear bra.
Pictures of my car and other MS they have done are on their yelp page, they are the most highly regarded when it comes to MS in the Bay
@Hills @TeslaModelSOwner:
I'd love to hear more information about this too. Thanks!
I got 30% on all windows except front windshield with llumar ceramic for under $500.
Pics are posted in their yelp page so you can see how it looks
I have an appointment for the end of the month (he's booked out about 3 weeks) at Omega Tintwerks in Pleasanton. I had my Infiniti G35 tinted by Vince in 2007 and it's still looking great. He says he's tinted 4 Tesla Model S so far and he's using ceramic Llumar tint to avoid interference with electronics. He quoted $400 for all windows (besides windshield) for me. He also does lots of paint protection installs and I might have him exchange the partial paint armor on my hood for a full hood.
@TeslaModelSOwner, I have an appointment next week with Auto Image in Belmont, thanks for the suggestion.
Did you have any adhesion problems with the black dots on the edges of the rear and rear fly windows? (Did you do Llumar?)
I would go review postings here: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/11032-Model-S-Window-Tinti...

Multiple internet security networks and monitoring services have reported significant decrease in online traffic on Tuesday night coming from Syria.
Umbrella Security Labs, the research division of OpenDNS which is the world's largest Internet security Network, wrote in a blogpost about the technical issues regarding Syria's internet outage:
"At around 18:45 UTC the OpenDNS resolvers saw a significant drop in traffic from Syria. On closer inspection, it seems Syria has largely disappeared from the Internet."
BGPmon.net, another internet monitoring service confirmed the news on its official Twitter account:
Internet Syria just went down! Starting 18:45 UTC twitter.com/bgpmon/status/…
— BGPmon.net (@bgpmon) May 7, 2013
Akamai Internet Networking service also reported traffic drop coming from Syria:
Traffic drop to Syria from the @akamai platform corroborates Internet outage observed by @renesys and @bgpmon: twitter.com/akamai_soti/st…
— StateOfTheInternet (@akamai_soti) May 7, 2013
Search engine giant Google has also confirmed the news through their network traffic graph:
The causes of the outage are still being looked into and the story is developing. A similar outage occurred last year in November 2012 in Syria and the internet was restored two days later.

Q: Can either team take anything away from last week's tape?
Albert Young: Those guys (Iowa State) know what we are doing, we know what they are doing. We didn't show anything last week, so that is a positive. These two teams are very familiar with each other, so its about execution. We know what is coming on both sides, so it comes down to execution.
Q: Was the transition from practice to a game an easy one?
Young: Yes. We have been going all summer against our defense. We did better on Saturday than we did all camp. We didn't run that well in scrimmages, so that was weird. It felt good to be back out there at game speed.
Q: The big game is coming, so how much hype have you heard around school this week and what do you say about this being Iowa's Super Bowl?
Young: That is more what fans tell you. This is not the Super Bowl; it's the second game of the season. Whatever the fans make it out to be is on them. We didn't have classes yesterday, so I was not around everything and what people are saying. That is a positive. We try to take this as another game. We know the stakes are high, but as a team, we don't look at it as the Super Bowl. This game will not make or break our season. The rest is for the fans
Q: At the same time, this was a game that ended your season last year. Do you take it personal?
Young: There is a little more incentive to be back out there. It's not like 'oh, it's Iowa State'. If it is anyone, you want to perform. It's not like I am looking at them like they intentionally took me out, but it will be good to finish the game, something I didn't do last year.
Q: How did it feel to get out there last week?
Young: It felt great being out in front of the crowd; that was fun. It was good to get in the game as a unit and having some good memories.
Q: Are you looking forward to a game that really hits you that you are back?
Young: I am not measuring what I did against Ball State. I feel like I am back. My leg is not as strong as my left leg for obvious reasons, having two injuries there, but it is where it needs to be right now and I feel confident about it.
Q: You have never been part of a loss to Iowa State. Do the older guys talk with you about it?
Young: We are in Iowa. You want to be the top team in your state. You don't have to be from Iowa to know that this is a big game. It's built up more than it really is. We are not going in this week going crazy at practice because we are playing Iowa State. We will approach it the same as we did for Ball State, the same way we will for UNI and Ohio State. This is just another ball game.

In addition to NTT America's achievement as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, these certifications represent another major step in our effort to deliver operational excellence in three key areas: operational control, system availability, and privacy. We can assure customers that their business is protected in an outsourcing environment."

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!
My 60 year old sister fell in the shower at a nursing facility and fractured her tailbone tried to get up and fell again fracturing her hip. She died a week after the fall, and the medical examiner indicated that since there were no signs of trauma on her body and after speaking with the nursing home he determined that her death was accidental due to the fall and complication of possible clotting. We asked several times for an autopsy and was told that in fracture cases autopsies are not conducted at the discretion of the medical examiner. We will be speaking to a lawyer about wrongful death because she was at risk for falling and shouldn't been alone. Will it damage my case if an autopsy wasn't done? We are now living with the regret of not getting one done?
First, I am terribly sorry for your loss. Although an autopsy does help in some cases, it is not the end all. The key is making that link, that causal connection between the neglect and the cause of death. If the death certificate gives a reason or cause of death and is directly linked to the neglect, most of the work is already done, thus an autopsy would only bolster an already perfect storm. In the scenario you have presented, there is not enough information get a clear understanding of the facts, to give quality personalized advice, however an autopsy is usually needed to rule out other causes of death that the defense may want to use to cast doubt in the mind of the jury. If the cause of death is known to be a result of the fall and the fall can be linked to neglect rather than an unfortunate, unavoidable accident, then it is far from a disaster to not have one. There are many wrongful deaths cases we have been involved with and have been successful proving, without autopsy's. A good quality medical expert will be bale to make the connection Also, you did not mention when this happened so you need to be mindful of the statute of limitations on wrongful death cases in Maryland. if there is one.

This communication is not intended as legal advice, and no attorney client relationship results. Please consult your own attorney for legal advice.Ask a similar question
Due to the proximity of the trauma of a hip fracture with the death of your sister a lawyer should not have a great deal of difficulty in having a medical expert address this issue favorably without the necessity of an autopsy. Please review my blog article on autopsies in long term care settings at www.nursinghomeabusenews.org. As you will understand after reading this article you are not alone in deciding to avoid an autopsy. Lawyers such as myself are used to working without that tool in preparing our cases.Ask a similar question
Great information! Another best answer! Thank you so much!
Although an autopsy is helpful, it isn't necessary. State laws vary, but for general information, you can read about nursing home abuse and wrongful death on my website.

By Heath HamacherNovember 20, 2006
FORT JACKSON, S.C. (Army News Service, Nov. 20, 2006) Aca,!" Responsible for the Army's new slogan, "Army Strong," representatives of the New York-based McCann Erickson advertising agency underwent some unusual training last week.
Hosted by Fort Jackson's Company F, 2nd Battalion, 60th Infantry Regiment, 39 members of the agency went to the post to participate in a three-and-a-half day Basic Combat Training camp.
"The purpose is to give the advertising company a real, on-the-ground look of what it's like to make the transformation from civilian to Soldier," said Carl Morrow, Fort Jackson operations assistant, Directorate of Plans, Training, Mobilization and Security. "They had the opportunity to do some training, as well as observe Soldiers being trained, and there was a question-and-answer session afterward, where they got to ask Soldiers about their experiences."
Morrow said because the Mini-BCT offered McCann Erickson employees an opportunity to better understand the Army, it could help spark creativity that may otherwise go untapped.
"Hopefully this helps them better brainstorm and put out ideas because they've seen it up close and experienced a small part of the transition," he said. "They conquer a lot of personal fears, as well as being able to put a lot of things they've learned toward their advertising."
Elizabeth Marks, senior vice president and senior strategic manager for McCann Erickson, said it did just that.
"I thought it was the right combination of realistic, yet informative, training," Marks said. "It was very helpful in giving us a deeper understanding of what these Soldiers go through. We also had the opportunity to meet with Soldiers, which validated the experience we had, but also validated the thinking and learning behind the campaign itself."
Marks summed up her experience by saying the Mini-BCT helped convey "a better understanding from beginning to end."
Participants arrived Nov. 6 at the 120th Adjutant General Battalion (Reception), where they relinquished contraband items, received military clothing at the Clothing Initial Issue Point and were turned over to the 2nd Bn., 60th Inf. Reg. Over the next three days, they learned how to wear the Army Combat Uniform, practiced Jiu-Jitsu, ran the Fit-to-Win Course, used the Engagement Skills Trainer 2000, and even participated in live-fire exercises at Bastogne Range, a heavy weapons range. They graduated Nov. 8 in a small ceremony at company headquarters.
Richard Livingston, creative team project leader, Army Group, NAS Recruitment Communications, said he had expected to be treated "more like a recruit" during his time here, but was satisfied with the insight he received.
"Overall, I thought the whole thing was fantastic," Livingston said. "I'd do it again in a shot if I had the opportunity."
A select group of 11 members traveled to Laurinburg, N.C., to skydive with the Golden Knights, the U.S. Army's Parachute Demonstration Team. One of those was Casey Perry, NAS art director.
"It was amazing, though I was definitely scared to death going up there," Casey said. "I felt pretty confident going up with the Golden Knights and if I were to do it again, I'd definitely want it to be with them."
"You hear stories but, seeing everything for myself, I have a ton more respect for everyone in the military."

Plays of the Day
Value: Justin Anderson is averaging 1.08 FPs per minute with a 29.7% Usage Rate when Mavericks veterans Deron Williams, J.J. Barea, Wes Matthews and Dirk Nowitzki are all on the bench this season and he's been extremely productive on a per-minute basis with 30 points and 53.5 DK points (49.6 FD points) despite playing just 36 minutes over his last 2 appearances.
Fade: Paul George is coming off a very good game against a deteriorating Knicks defense and a malcontent SF in Carmelo Anthony, but now he faces the young Wolves and a defensive mastermind in Minnesota HC Tom Thibadeou. Steer clear of the Pacers uninspiring leader tonight.
Games to Target
- Denver Nuggets (-7) hosting Phoenix Suns (Over/Under = 230)
Point Guards
Two Studs
Russell Westbrook (OKC) vs. DAL DK:$12,600/FD:$12,700
We have a very short slate tonight with just 4 games on the docket and it's a rare situation in which Westbrook is rather easy to fit into lineups along with a couple of punt plays. Nothing needs to be said about the Thunder's MVP candidate, as he just passed Larry Bird for fifth place on the all-time triple double list with his 23rd of the season while carrying his team to a win over New Orleans last night. Tonight he'll face a Mavericks team that gives up the fewest FPPG to opposing PGs simply because they play at the slowest pace in the NBA, but also rank dead last in total rebounding, opponents 3PT shooting and 27th in opponents FG shooting (.395%), so Westbrook should be able to lead his team with points, boards and assists for another big line.
Jordan Clarkson (LAL) @ UTA DK:$4,700/FD:$4,800
The Lakers bounced back from an historic loss to Dallas with a respectable performance in Portland last night and they'll look to be competitive again on the road against a tough Jazz squad. Utah (-13) is expected to roll tonight, but it will be on the Lakers bench mob to produce enough offense to avoid another embarrassing blowout. Clarkson and Lou Williams combined for 53 points on 35 FGAs off the bench last night and both players will remain heavily involved with D'Angelo Russell (knee, calf) out indefinitely. The Jazz are a great defensive team, but struggle at times against quick PGs that can run PnR and get into the lane, so perhaps Clarkson hurts their second unit tonight while doing enough to exceed value once again.
Potential Value
Jameer Nelson ($4500/$3900) is in line for another start with Emmanuel Mudiay (back) doubtful for Denver. Devin Harris ($3000/$3500) is worth a punt with Deron Williams (toe) unlikely to play for Dallas.
Ricky Rubio ($6800/$6900) returned from a personal absence and kept rolling with a double double on Tuesday, so he's worth a look as a mid-tier option with upside tonight.
Shooting Guards
Two Studs
Lou Williams (LAL) @ UTA DK:$5,200/FD:$5,700
Sure enough, Sweet Lou stepped up to the plate with the Lakers shorthanded and reeling to deliver a team-high 31 points and keep the team competitive in Portland last night. While he draws a much tougher matchup on paper this evening, he's excelled in some of those tough matchups all season, burning stout defenses such as that of the Heat, Pistons, Hornets and these Jazz in recent weeks. In fact he's averaging 25.7 PPG, 5.3 APG and an impressive 38.7 DK PPG over 3 meetings with Utah this season and he should lead the young Lakers offense again after posting team highs in Usage Rate (35%) and Assist Rate (42.9%) on Wednesday.
Seth Curry (DAL) @ OKC DK:$4,500/FD:$4,100
The Mavs are going to be very shorthanded tonight with Deron Williams, Wes Matthews and Dirk Nowitzki all doubtful or guaranteed to be inactive. While the absence of those veterans doesn't necessarily mean they won't be competitive in OKC (-9.5), it does mean that the younger players on the roster will get increased opportunities. Curry just went for 20 points on 8-of-19 FG shooting against the Knicks last night and he's been solid with averages of 16.4 PPG while logging 30.4 MPG over his last 5 appearances. He's sporting a 24% Usage Rate and averaging 0.84 FPs per minute with Matthews, Williams and Dirk all off the floor this year and the absence of J.J. Barea (calf) should also help to guarantee a certain amount of playing time and usage for Steph's little brother.
Potential Value
Alec Burks ($3400/$3800) is balling off the Jazz bench and he's a solid punt play to consider on this short slate.
Devin Booker ($7100/$7200) is a contrarian option to use in balanced lineups that fade Westbrook. Consider Nick Young ($3900/$3900) as a cheap play with upside.
Small Forwards
Two Studs
Harrison Barnes (DAL) @ OKC: DK:$6,000/FD:$6,200
He's essentially the Mavericks only chance to remain competitive during this tough road tilt and that makes Barnes a good correlation play to use with Westbrook and/or a Thunder big man tonight. He leads the team with a 35.5% Usage Rate when Williams, Barea, Matthews and Nowitzki are all inactive this season and turned up his production with 23 points on 8-of-15 shooting last night. The Thunder happen to cough up the fourth-most PPG (22.38) to opposing SFs over the last month and Barnes is producing 65% of his FPs by scoring this season, so he's a solid cash game option with some upside if this game stays close late.
Justin Anderson (DAL) @ OKC: DK:$3,000/FD:$3,700
Here's another Mavericks player that can serve as a punt play with upside. Anderson is averaging 1.08 FPs per minute with a 29.7% Usage Rate when all the Mavs veterans are on the bench this season and he's been extremely productive on a per-minute basis with 30 points and 53.5 DK points (49.6 FD points) despite playing just 36 minutes over his last 2 appearances. Starting SF Dorian Finney-Smith has a much lower floor despite playing over 30 minutes in each of the Mavericks last 2 games as indicated by his Usage Rate (12.3%) with all the veterans inactive, so you could go against the grain to a degree by using Anderson even if "DFS" is listed as the starter again.
Potential Value
P.J. Tucker ($4400/$4500) plays big minutes for the Suns depending on the matchup and he might see heavy run tonight against the athletic Nuggets.
Andrew Wiggins ($7000/$7600) is hot right now and he's definitely worth a look in GPP formats against the soft defense of Paul George and the Pacers.
Power Forwards
Two Studs
Nikola Jokic (DEN) vs. PHO: DK:$9,300 as C/FD:$10,400
It finally happened. Jokic is priced over $10K on FanDuel for the first time all season because he proved to be matchup-proof by dominating Rudy Gobert and the Jazz for 23 points, 11 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals to exceed value on Tuesday night. Utah represented the one team capable of stopping The Joker and he dispelled that notion, so you shouldn't worry too much about Tyson Chandler and the Suns solid interior defense tonight. The Nuggets have the third-best offensive rating since Christmas and Jokic is a huge part of that improvement with averages of 23.4 PPG, 10.7 RPG and 4.5 APG this month. He's carving up opposing defenses and shouldn't have much trouble scoring or assisting against a Phoenix team that ranks 26th in defensive rating and third in pace on the season.
Derrick Favors (UTA) vs. LAL: DK:$5,400/FD:$4,700
His minutes have finally stabilized at that makes Favors a very solid mid-tier play on DK and a veritable bargain on FanDuel right now. He's exceeded value in 3 consecutive appearances with averages of 12 PPG and 7.3 RPG during that span. His upside is obviously limited until he's fully healthy, but Favors could break out to a degree against a soft Lakers defense that's coughing up the most FPPG (46.43) to opposing PFs on the season. Starting PF Julius Randle appears lost or disinterested at times and backup Larry Nance Jr. isn't fully healthy either, so this is a team to attack on the second half of their B2B set.
Potential Value
Darrell Arthur ($3000/$3900) has taken Jusuf Nurkic's playing time and he's coming off a season-best outing for the Nuggets, so give him a look as a true punt play.
Dwight Powell ($3100/$3700) actually sports the highest Usage Rate amongst Mavericks with Barea, Williams, Nowitzki and Matthews inactive, so he's worth a punt as well.
Two Studs
Tyson Chandler (PHO) @ DEN: DK:$6,400/FD:$6,600
DraftKings seemed to make a mistake with Chandler's price tag ($5700) two nights ago and they've quickly rectified that error, but he's still reasonably priced as a certifiable double double threat. The Suns and Nuggets clash in what should be the fastest-paced game of this slate with a 230-point Over/Under and plenty of defensive weaknesses on both sides of the ball. Chandler has been soaking up boards with averages of 17.3 PPG and 14.5 RPG over his last 4 appearances and the veteran is logging 32.6 MPG during that span while Alex Len has become an afterthought. Phoenix will need its defensive stopper tonight in a tough matchup against Jokic and TC should be up to the challenge.
Steven Adams (OKC) vs. DAL: DK:$5,000/FD:$5,500
Last night, we regrettably moved Zaza Pachulia up from a Potential Value to the second recommendation last night and swapped Adams to a mere value play, but he proved us wrong by flashing tremendous upside in a good matchup against the Pelicans. Tonight, the Big Kiwi will get another chance to produce a double double against a shorthanded Mavs squad that ranks dead last in total rebounding this year. Dallas gives up a league-worst 16.6 RPG to opposing centers, while New Orleans ranked second in that dubious designation, so it's fair to expect another solid line from Adams after he went for 20 points, 11 boards and 4 blocks in a win last night.
Potential Value
Enes Kanter ($5500/$6400 as PF on FD) is also a candidate to dominate the shorthanded Mavs up front tonight and he could be more productive than Adams if this game turns into a blowout.
Rudy Gobert ($7500/$8300) may get overlooked after a couple of lackluster games with the Jazz heavily favored, but he's dominated the Lakers in every meeting so far this season.

Stain upon the Soul was a Mastery 3 atemi martial air kiho [1] which was named for the stigma which many of the monastic orders assigned it. The kiho caused resonance between the air in the monk and their opponent, and after a successful atemi strike at their opponent it caused them excruciating pain in the nervecluster where the strike landed. Some considered it's use on oneself as an appropriate way of developing discipline. [2] [3]
