The company run by a Welshman, Howard Stringer, shut down the network on April 19 after discovering the breach, one of the biggest online data infiltrations ever, but did not tell the public about the theft until this Tuesday - a week later.
In the United States, several members of Congress seized on the breach, in which hackers stole names, addresses and possibly credit card details from 77 million users. One U.S. law firm filed a lawsuit in California on behalf of consumers.
"Gamers are angry that Sony's CEO hasn't come out to explain the situation and investors are disappointed over the company's corporate governance," said Michael Wang, manager of overseas funds at Prudential Financials in Taipei, which owns shares in Sony.
Sony's PlayStation Network, a service that produces an estimated $500 million in annual revenues, provides access to online games, movies and TV shows. Nine out of 10 of PlayStation's users are based in the United States or Europe.
Gamers could ditch Sony and analysts said people looking to buy a video game console could steer toward Microsoft Corp's Xbox, which has its own popular online network.
"I am outraged that my personal information may have been accessed by hackers," said Rich Chiang, a PlayStation and Xbox user in Shanghai.
Security experts said Sony would need to account for the loss of business - as well as damage to its brand - when it tallies up the cost. Other costs include notifying customers of the attack and bringing in experts to cleanse its network.
Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of the Ponemon Institute, said the theft could cost Sony more than $1.5 billion, or an average of $20 for each of the 77 million customers whose data was potentially compromised. Poneman's firm specializes in securing information on computer networks.
Sony said the delay in notifying the public was needed to conduct a forensic investigation but it is fast becoming a public relations nightmare akin to Toyota Motor's bungled response to a giant vehicle recall last year, fuelling criticism of corporate Japan's standards of disclosure.
Neither Sony's Welsh-born chief executive Howard Stringer nor Kazuo Hirai, who was appointed to the company's No. 2 position last month after building up Sony's networked services, have commented publicly.
Sony shares closed down 4.5% after falling more than 5 percent at one stage, while the broad market rose 1.6 percent. The stock has now lost more than 8 percent this week.
Some fund managers said the impact might be contained.
"Shares of Sony have already reached the low since the earthquake so I think further downside is limited. Investors who buy Sony are buying on its growth in PlayStation. Gamers usually will not stop playing just because a single incident," said Prudential Financial's Wang.
In the United States, attorneys general, who act as consumer advocates, had begun investigating the matter or reviewing it with staff in several states, including in Iowa, Connecticut, Florida and Massachusetts, according to their offices.
U.S. regulators could get involved as well. The Federal Trade Commission has been known to pursue companies that failed to safeguard consumer data.
It could investigate if it determines Sony failed to tell its customers about the company's privacy policies.
A spokeswoman for the agency declined to comment.
In Britain, the Information Commissioner's Office said it had contacted Sony and was investigating whether it violated laws that require it to safeguard personal information. The commissioner's investigation would depend in part on whether Sony stored user information in Britain.
Indeed, Sony may come under the toughest scrutiny from non-U.S. regulators, which have stricter consumer privacy laws.
"European countries are going to go crazy and be all over this," said Dan Burk, a professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Law.
"They are absolutely obsessed about companies holding personal information."

Deficit cuts sought as debt-limit deadline approaches
WASHINGTON President Obama and Senate backers of a $3.7 trillion deficit-reduction plan that includes tax increases pressed their case Wednesday, even as time dwindled for raising the government's $14.3 trillion borrowing limit.
The combination of a popular new plan offered by a bipartisan group of senators, the "Gang of Six," and the lack of time to enact it into law by Aug. 2 pointed toward a two-step process: raise the debt limit first, deal with red ink later.
The White House even softened its stand on a possible short-term increase in the debt ceiling if additional time is needed to get a deficit-reduction plan of any size through Congress.
"We need to meet, talk, consult, narrow down what our options are and figure out in fairly short order which train we're riding into the station," White House press secretary Jay Carney said.
Two steps tied together
The approaching deadline concerned budget watchdog groups and centrist lawmakers pushing for a "grand bargain" to cut spending and raise taxes. Once the debt ceiling is raised, they reasoned, pressure for deficit reduction might subside.
Their hope resided in the financial markets and credit ratings agencies that increasingly have tied the two steps together. They want the United States to avoid defaulting on its obligations — the immediate crisis — but they also want action on a credible plan to slash annual $1.5 trillion deficits.
"If they don't come up with a significant and credible long-term deficit reduction program now, the chances of them doing so between now and the next presidential and congressional elections are not very high," said Steven Hess, senior credit officer at Moody's Investors Service.
Still, Obama and congressional leaders kept their sights set on raising the debt limit before borrowed money runs out in less than two weeks. Even that will be a multistep process:
•The Democratic-led Senate will likely defeat by Saturday a House-passed measure that includes a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.
•The fallback plan is one in which Obama and Democrats would raise the debt limit three times between now and 2013, with Republicans able to vote against it without blocking it.
•Still in play are what gets attached to that plan, such as a new congressional panel with unique power to propose deficit reduction measures. The House might attach about $1.5 trillion in specific deficit cuts. And the latest Senate "Gang of Six" plan could be elevated in the process.
"I don't want to do anything that would slow down or mess up raising the debt limit," said Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., a Gang of Six leader. But "the ratings agencies have said that just getting past the debt limit doesn't get us over the problem."
With time dwindling, Obama invited congressional leaders to the White House for the first time in nearly a week. He met with Democrats, and then with House Republican leaders, in hopes of salvaging at least some deficit reduction in the first package.
Cutting deficits has been at the top of the nation's agenda since December, when a bipartisan commission recommended nearly $4 trillion in cuts over 10 years. House Republicans passed a plan and Obama proposed one in April, but their differences have stalled progress.
The government's Aug. 2 date with a possible default offered hope for a deal that would ease the political pain of raising the debt limit, even though that vote is necessary just to pay for spending that was previously promised. But months of negotiations have led to an impasse.
Plan aims to break impasse
The Gang of Six plan unveiled Tuesday sought to break that impasse. It called for major but unspecified spending cuts, including in Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, as well as at least $1 trillion in higher taxes by eliminating or reducing tax breaks and lowering tax rates.
The plan quickly picked up support from more than 30 senators and budget watchdog groups. Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, hailed it as a bold plan that feeds a "pent-up appetite" for deficit reduction among moderates in both parties. Former U.S. comptroller general David Walker praised it while unveiling his own, more detailed plan.
Groups on the left and right criticized the plan. The nation's biggest labor unions opposed its cuts in benefit programs. The conservative House Republican Study Committee opposed its tax increases.

Ratings for Dr. Ziad T. Awad
Dr. Awad is just an amazing surgeon. You would do well to travel far to see him and trust his excellent skills. His staff and fellows and also a great group of professionals.
I owe him my life! He perform my Whipple Procedure in October of 2009!And it was a success, I'm a brand new man because him and my Lord.Jesus Christ.Thank you Dr Awad
Dr Ziad T Awad . He is our ANGEL, Thank to him my is still alive. With his ANGEL HANDS AND HIM WONDERFUL TEAM SAVED MY HUSBAND LIFE, Dr. AWAD is very caring, if we had to do it again would go with close eyes with. To us he is the best DOCTOR
Initial surgery was a success. But After complications developed and more surgery was needed awad seemed almost "annoyed" he turns everything over to his students, interns with varying levels of experience and competence. You never know who or what you get each day. He tells you he oversees everything they do, but he does not. If a "real" surgeon had been in charge of my case, and not some inexperienced students, my recovery would have been a success, and without all the complications and additional procedures and surgeries. He allows you to be treated like a lab rat, while "students" practice or try out, or in my case, waste precious time and misdiagnose the problem. I would never ever ever go back to a "teaching" hospital again, regardless of how talented the surgeon is...you end up being "practiced on" by anything but doctors...terrible experience and Awad is ultimately responsible for that.
This man operated on my brother-in-law in 2009 for pancreatic cancer. The surgery lasted 16 1/2 hours. Today, my brother-in-law runs up to 8 miles a day! Amazing.
very unprofessional did not take the time to check surgery follow up/took cell phone calls and text/have adrenal cancer made me feel like i have no chance/could not tell me what he removed/he did not even know what was in my chart...terrible experence

First Impressions: Lomography Fisheye Baby + Orca B&W 1102013-03-06 1 4 Share Tweet
Something smells fishy and it's not seafood! Check out my analogue "catch" of the day in the first installment of my "First Impressions" reviews series.
My preferred film format is 35mm, but with Lomography's fresh new camera and emulsion offerings, I've decided to try my hand at shooting 110 film. I had a Fisheye Baby 110 Metal, put a cartridge of black & white Orca 100 ISO 110 film in it, and here are the results from my fishy friends.
First of all, the Fisheye Baby 110 Metal is adorable. Almost like a keychain, it's a joy to bring along everywhere and anywhere. The minuscule metallic subcompact sparked curiosity wherever I went and people always wanted to take a look at it, hold it, and look through it. "Yes, it's a real camera!" I repeatedly asserted when they asked. It's almost as small as the matchbox pinhole I made (which I was able to sneak into a Cirque du Soleil show) so I think the Fisheye Baby 110 is actually a cute spy camera!
Its 170-degree lens, coupled with Lomography B&W Orca 100 film, really gives a different perspective. When I got the negatives back from development and saw the photos, I thought they really looked like they were taken by a fish out of water, but in a good way! I almost felt like an animal myself, snooping and snapping around town, and I think the "warped" and "colorblind" images reflect that. I also like the quirky look when you include the 110 cartridge frame in scanning. The tiny Orca drawing and film branding adds character to the prints, so I decided to keep them instead of crop them.
My only concern was that, though you could attach one, a flash totally dwarfs the mini cam so handling could become cumbersome if you're planning on doing flash photography. I wanted to keep shooting with it as a subcompact so I decided to forego the flash. Unfortunately, some photos turned out pretty dark but otherwise, I'm pleased with my first experience with 110!
I'd like to try it again, maybe using Lomography Peacock 110 X-Pro slide film next time, and I'll let you know how it goes. Stay tuned for the next camera and film review from my *First Impressions* series!
See more photos in the album 110 + 120
We're bringing 110 photography back to life with a bang! The Fisheye Baby 110 Metal is packed with fabulous features such as 170-degree lens and multiple and long exposure capabilities. This fully-working miniature version of the Fisheye No. 2 also features a PC flash adaptor so you can light up your shots! Pair it with our 110 format films available in the Online Shop!

By Gary Graves, USA TODAY
Few would have faulted Carl Edwards for scaling back his Nationwide Series commitment to focus on Sprint Cup after his runner-up 2008 finish positioned him to be a strong favorite in '09.
Not surprisingly, that thought never crossed his mind, and there are arguments in his favor. The 2007 Nationwide champion was runner-up to fellow Cup and Chase driver Clint Bowyer by 21 points last season, and it was obvious the extra track time and competition benefited him on the Cup side.
With Bowyer not running enough races to defend his title this season, the door is open for Edwards to win a second Nationwide trophy in three years unless Kyle Busch, who won a season-high 10 races, knocks him off. Not that Edwards needs a rivalry to keep him in a series he clearly loves.
"I think the best thing in the world for the series would be for a few guys to go out and have a really good battle like Clint and I did at the end of the year," said Edwards, who won seven races in the No. 60 Roush Fenway Racing Ford. "I thought that was pretty cool.
"We won seven races and three out of the last four, so I'm curious to see how well we run. I hope we can run well enough to have a rivalry with Kyle."
As both prepare to become very familiar with each other this season, they're also keeping an eye on Brad Keselowski, who returns for another season after finishing third in 2008. Edwards might even get a push from within his own stable as Erik Darnell steps up from the Truck Series to run a partial schedule in the No. 6 Roush Ford Fusion.
Said Busch, "I'm sure it's going to be there. I think it's going to be a lot between Carl and I in both the Cup and Nationwide (series) hopefully. Keselowski looked really good at the end of last year. He was strong, and there were a few other guys that looked like they had something going on that they could contend with every week, too."
Though the Nationwide cars again remain different from the next-generation models run in Cup, Edwards and Busch love "double-dipping" in both series partly because of their zest for competition but also because they gleaned something out of it that worked on Sunday.
Edwards won a Cup-best nine races last season, including three of the last four; he also won three of the last four Nationwide races. Busch was near the top in all three series early last season before settling into the pack but was a threat to win no matter what model he was driving.
In between six DNFs (did not finish) and a few races Busch didn't enter, he showed why he should be mentioned in any discussion of favorites. In his final 13 Nationwide starts he was third or better nine times in the No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota Camry, with six wins and three other top-10s to finish sixth.
While that success didn't continue in the Chase — Busch finished 10th after starting it as the favorite — there was no doubt about its benefits during the regular season when he had a series-best eight wins.
As a result, Busch enters this season planning on running the same schedule but with a wary eye on that dreaded June weekend in which the Nationwide Series runs at Milwaukee on Saturday night with the Cup holding a race the next day at Sonoma, Calif.
It's a qualifying and travel nightmare. He skipped the Nationwide race last year, and he's playing it by ear this year.
"If you're too far behind in the Nationwide schedule, just skip out on it, forget about it," Busch said. "I mean, if we feel like there's something that's taken from our Cup effort that we're not able to do what we need to do on that side, we'll cut back on that program. We've got room that we can play around with if we want to."
An interesting subplot could be the Raybestos Rookie of the Year battle between Darnell, who's running at least 15 races, and onetime Cup driver Brendan Gaughan, who's stepping up from the Truck Series.
"There's a pretty strong rookie class," Darnell said. "Brendan's running, quite a few other guys are going to be out there. That's our goal, to run for that (title)."
But in terms of the championship, it's Edwards' or Busch's to lose, and Keselowski could be right there waiting if they do.

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!
The landlords lawyer tried to get me to sign a stipulation saying we waive our rights to challenge anything (i guess in trial or court) as an exchange for a extension to come back to court with representation. If I would have waived my rights in civil court (hold over case) ... what would I have been waving my rights for? Like does that mean I would not hold them liable for certain things? or is this just more court legal terms you really don't need to know? The reason why I ask is because he was VERY persistent in tryint to get me to sign and I wonder if that means they know they have a weak case or something. thanksand our agreement with my moms lawyer was to wauive the (Trans something) which he said meant we couldnt say we were served improperly. Yet he kept trying to add and reword (Challlange waived) and squeeze it in. He started turning red when I told he I would not agree without a lawyer and I would represent myself if needed and my mom and her lawyer could agree to waive any challenges because the ONLY thing I would agree to is NOT making them give us the petition again
Dear landlord asked me to waive rights to challenge anything?
You may have tried to use the exact language of the proposed waiver. Sometimes, when a tenant has already used the one free request to adjourn a case to obtain a lawyer, and still wants to adjourn for a lawyer, the tenant faces the prospect that the lawyer will over reach and take advantage of the tenant. Without you quoting the exact language used (and you should not be guessing what is intended you should know and if you do not understand you do not sign; that just makes common sense) I can "surmise" based on experience, that you may have been requested to consent to the evidence and proof of the landlord's prima facia case. That means that the landlord would not present a case at all at the trial, your waiver is an admission of the facts and evidence necessary to prove the landlord's prima facie case. I can "surmise" based on experience that you probably were not requested to waive or give up on trying to establish a defense at a trial, if you have a defense and the defense was asserted in your answer to the petition.
This does not mean they have a weak case. It means that the landlord wants to move the case to trial and cannot do so because you continue to delay the process. You should have had an attorney for your second court appearance, and no one would ask you to waive anything. You were being offered another adjournment to hire a lawyer, but the landlord's wanted wanted something back from you. In case you came back to court without an attorney, the landlord's lawyer would know his case is as good as done and the remainder of the case is yours. Without an attorney, you are not likely to keep your home.

Good luck.
The answer provided to you is in the nature of general information. The general proposition being that you should try to avoid a bad outcome if you can.Ask a similar question
my mother did have an attorney at the second appearance. She is the one that was suppose to be making threats(nuisance) and they just added me because Im the co-head and said I didnt give my income (which I did)they tried to make us default by giving us the petition at the very last minute knowing we had 3 days to answer or in default with no trial needed. Incident suppose to happen in July and they didnt get the petition until sep alot of tricks are trying to be made.
OK. Did anything I mentioned make sense to you about what was going on in court? You need defenses, not just denials to succeed. Hopefully your attorney can help you to keep your home. Good luck
yes it really did I appreciate that.... ok thanks

Unfortunately my cats really don't like this product. After licking a few sips they make disgusted faces and weird tongue movements. I also think it has a rather thick consistency. The three pack has better value though, however i recommend buying the 1 bottle if you're going to try out the product.

Tel Aviv, Israel (SPX) Jan 10, 2013
Elbit Systems subsidiary, Elbit Systems Land and C4I, was recently awarded a contract by the Israeli Ministry of Defense ("IMOD") to supply Cardom artillery systems (known in the Israel Defense Forces as "Keshet").
The contract, to be performed over six years, was part of the Company's December 31, 2012 announcement regarding a total of approximately $315 million in IMOD awards for several contracts in different areas.
The Cardom award is a follow-on to a contract for the Israeli Defense Forces ("IDF") awarded in September 2011.
Udi Vered, General Manager of Elbit Systems' Land and C4I Division commented: "This additional IMOD contract attests to the maturity and the quality of the Cardom's operational performance in the IDF and other armies worldwide.
We are witnessing a growing global demand for the supply of advanced artillery systems and we hope that additional customers will select our solutions to address their artillery needs".
Cardom integrates a 120mm mortar with innovative fire control, navigation, automatic aiming and propulsion systems.
Considered among the most advanced systems of its kind in the world, Cardom is operational in the IDF as well as various armies in Europe, the United States and other countries. The systems have also been deployed in combat zones.

A strange celebration that is also, perhaps, at least in part, not a celebration. This group portrait of the Graham children – their father was George II's apothecary - freezes the blood even as it pleases. And perhaps teases, somewhat ghoulishly. Its title seems blameless enough, blandly descriptive as it is. And yet, in the light of all that we know and see here, it also seems to brood ominously over those gentle, childish smiles.
The children themselves are perfectly – if not grandly – poised in this act of self-presentation, skirts or knees spread, in a mood of slightly understated contentment. And yet we feel that there is precious little genuine vitality here – or, if there is, it is of a painted, porcelain variety, rather unconvincing and somewhat manufactured. What is more, we are not profoundly convinced that the children are really linked in any way, by blood, friendship or tender feeling.
The painting's mood seems so evanescent, so tenuous. Each one seems like an entire, complete individual portrait of a ghostly semblance of a child, sufficient unto itself. In spite of the fact that the eldest holds the hand of her little brother, they show no evident tenderness for one another. Each one looks like a beautiful cut out, dropped into a pre-existing scene of slightly ominous domestic harmony.
Wherein lies that ominousness though? The symbolism of the details weigh heavy upon us. There is, for example, the bird cage at which happy Richard Graham, playing his little organ, glances up, pleasingly, momentarily, diverted. What he does not see is that at his back a tremendously bead-eyed cat, paw about to ramp its body up onto the top of the chair's back, seems about to snuff out the bird's life. In fact, it seems so eager to do so that this animal's vitality makes it the only truly pulsing thing in this entire painting. Everything else is slightly abstracted, slightly posthumous in feel.
And, in part at least, this is in fact a tribute to the dead. The youngest child – little, bonneted and be-skirted Thomas in his pretty pram – had died even before Hogarth finished the painting. See how the pram's wooden handle has fallen to the ground, as if giving up the ghost. It is as if Hogarth wants us to know, none too subtly, that death is everywhere in this picture, that the enduring frozen sweetness of this scene is also a profoundly melancholy one.
There are even more pointed references to death. Raised up behind (and to the left of) the head of the eldest child stands a small golden figure of cupid holding a scythe, symbol of death, and beside Cupid, an even smaller hour glass, through which the sands of time sift, remorselessly. Then there are those shiny apples in front of Thomas. They too will pass away.
And it all takes place inside an interior of such perfectly protective and seemingly prosperous bourgeois respectability that we can scarcely credit that death will pass through this door, too. Albeit on a small scale, and even gilded, and borne proudly, like a kind of fluttering pennant, by the god of love.
About the artist: William Hogarth (1697-1764)
Born in Bartholomew Close, London, William Hogarth was the son of an impoverished teacher of Latin who spent time in the Fleet Prison for debt, and founded a coffee house at St John's Gate where only Latin was spoken. It was a commercial failure. A Freemason, William married Jane Thornhill in 1729, the daughter of Sir James Thornhill, also an artist. The childless couple fostered foundling children, and took a keen interest in the affairs of Captain Coram's Foundling Hospital.Reuse content

Who Is the Pro Golfer Here?
By Kickntrue on 2/12/10
The AT&T Pro-Am at Pebble Beach is underway and easily the most interesting pairing is John Daly and Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo. So which one was 4 shots better than the other yesterday? That of course would be Romo.

bducharm says:
You know it's time to quit when your amateur partner beats the pro!!! Dang, maybe that will make the Being John Daly show interesting!!!
bshepard says:
I doubt they were playing the same tees. Not surprised though since Romo is near scratch and Daly is capable of shooting in the 80" on any given round.
MartijnL says:
Makes sense since Romo is a very good golfer and Daly probably wasn't trying that hard.
munk24 says:
Romo is playing forward tees, the score Romo had is combined with Daly is fourball, Romo made two birdies and commented how much better Daly played. remember their team score is best score on a hole, if Daly bogeyed a hole and Romo parred it, team par. If Daly birdied a hole and Romo bogeyed, team birdie, cmon guys get a grip.
mjaber says:
I wonder if they'll ever get shot tracker setup to allow you to follow the Amateurs as well as the pros during this event.

Little Rock, AR - The CMSA Board of Directors believes that proving the value of health care services is compromised by the lack of validated, consistently supported, standardized outcome methods regarding the use of case management and other patient care coordination services such as disease management. Toward that end, the CMSA Board of Directors publicly acknowledged the importance of this issue by becoming the first clinical association to support the mission, impact evaluation principles, and standards setting process of the Population Health Impact (PHI) Institute.
A resolution supporting this position was unanimously adopted at the association's November 2005 board meeting. The resolution encourages CMSA members and others in the health care industry -- including providers, payers, consumer organizations, private industry and government purchasers -- to support the principles and standards-setting process of the PHI Institute.
CMSA President, Susan Rogers, RN, BSN, CCM states, "We believe this resolution fully supports CMSA's strategic outcomes initiative. After all, the PHI Institute, a non-profit entity, was founded to both promote and conduct independent, impartial, accurate and credible evaluations of the economic and clinical outcomes of defined population health programs, using impact methods that are transparent and replicable. These principles are the key pieces of the outcomes puzzle which we feel have been missing until now. We believe this science-based effort will make a significant contribution towards proving the value of case management and other population health programs. The credible evaluation processes and methodologies proposed by the PHI Institute will make it easier for market buyers and sellers to make evidence-based ROI determinations and improve clinical resource allocations."
CMSA's leadership believes such methods are necessary to enable buyers to better compare and contrast different case management programs with each other, and case management to other types of population health interventions. In fact, these methods have the potential to enable comparisons of all types of population health programs to each other. According to CMSA's Executive Director, Jeanne Boling, MSN, CRRN, CDMS, CCM, "Effective outcomes measures have always been a challenge for CMSA (and healthcare associations in general), yet the principles proposed by the PHI Institute represent the most useful framework currently available for stakeholder consensus building and development of generally accepted impact evaluation standards."
Since 1990, the Case Management Society of America (CMSA) has been tackling fundamental care management issues and promoting innovative healthcare change. Case management professionals advocate for the needs of patients, assuring that the countries most chronically ill and catastrophically injured people are promptly attended to up and down the healthcare chain. Ultimately, the reward is a healthier population and a more affordable health care system. This is an ever-challenging process considering the administrative depth, breadth and fragmentation of the US, and other national healthcare systems, and the fact that numerous providers are often involved in a single case.
Ms. Boling concludes, "We are delighted the CMSA Board of Directors has embraced this bold position and we are grateful to Dr. Thomas Wilson and the PHI Institute for their leadership in this critical area of the health care industry."

text: A new account has an edged paver pathway through their lawn with blue star creeper around the stones as groundcover. Looks nice, but it has grown about 10 feet from the path on each side out into their lawn.. Its just about choking out the grass in a few spots. What would be the best way to treat this and not hurt the grass or damage the ground cover between the pavers? My thought would be a spot application of broadleaf weed killer but I've never dealt with creeper in a lawn before so thought I would put it to the group.. TIA, Bill

And, we're at the home stretch. As you're about to begin your third trimester, which can last until week 39 and maybe even more! However, we'll just stick to science and assume that it's week 36. So, let's begin.
Week 28:
Your baby forms layers of chub that improves its skin. The bones are almost developed, even though they're soft, they'll harden after birth.
Week 29:
Muscles and lungs develop a little more while the head finally grows to make room for the growing brain.
For your baby's nutritional intake, ensure you're getting enough protein, vitamin C, folic acid, and iron. Calcium (milk, cheese, yogurt) is also vital as it's a must for your baby's bones.
Week 30:
Finally, the lungs and digestive system are almost entirely developed. The baby's vision improves as it can see its surroundings in the uterus, and it can even tell the difference between light and darkness by responding either by turning away or touching the light. Also, the baby continues to open and close its eyes.
Some studies suggest that if you expose your stomach to light, it can stimulate visual development. However, newborns aren't usually able to see much because they can only see short distances of around 20 to 30 cm.
Week 31:
The baby's head no longer looks extra large because the arms, legs, and body grow in proportion. Until now, your baby's movements were increasing, but now onwards until birth, the changes can reach a plateau. They don't necessarily slow down, but the movements can change.
Week 32:
As your baby gets plumper, its skin gets smoother. It already may have a head full of hair, or it can have a few wisps. This can change after birth, especially if the hair is thick because it may not stay for long. However, fine hair tends to stay the same.
Week 33:
Your baby's position should now change, as its head should be pointing downwards. Ensure you go for a check up because sometimes babies can turn back around.
The skull is still pliable because the bones have not fused entirely. This helps when the baby has to come out of the birth canal (cervix to vagina), which is quite narrow. However, the rest of the bones are hardening.
Week 34:
The lungs are almost entirely developed whereas the central nervous system still has some developing to do.
At this point, you are encouraged to talk and read to your baby. By now, your baby can hear sounds outside of your body so don't be shy to chat with your little one. Research even suggests that babies are more inclined to pay attention to high-pitched voices. Maybe that's where the "baby voices" came from?
Week 35:
This is when your little one's kidneys are fully developed, fingernails and toenails are fully grown, and the liver may even process waste products.
The wall of your tummy and uterus will soon stretch to become thinner, which lets in more light. This results in your baby developing daily activities.
Week 36:
You'll feel your baby moving downwards, which can increase pressure on your lower tummy. Sadly, this may make walking uncomfortable, as it may seem as if your child is coming out. On the bright side, your lungs will get a chance to stretch, which allows you to breathe and eat easier.

The LG G3 has leaked online again, this time in two photographs which show the flagship Android handset more clearly than ever before.
To be announced at a global media event on 27 May, the G3 is expected to feature a 5.5-inch screen with a 'Quad HD' resolution of 2560 x 1440 and a huge pixel density of 534 per inch, far higher than any other phone on the market.
Read More - LG sends out media invitations for 27 May event
Leaked on Korean website Seeko, the images show a phone with no physical buttons and an extremely narrow screen bezel. The lack of a home button suggests the G3 will use LG's Knock On feature, where the user taps the screen twice to wake the phone. This will probably be upgraded to Knock Code, as seen on the LG G Pro 2.
Knock Code lets the user set a pattern of between two and eight taps to act as a password.
Read More - LG G Pro 2 Hands-On
Also similar to the G Pro 2 - and last year's G2 - the G3 has buttons on its rear to control the volume and turn the phone on and off. These are joined by a camera, flash and a mystery sensor which could be a fingerprint scanner for biometric security, or a heart rate monitor, as seen on the Samsung Galaxy S5.
All will be revealed at LG's media event on 27 May.

For a list of the other versions, see Skull Buster.
- Skull Buster is a Cobra character from the A Real American Hero and G.I. Joe vs. Cobra series.
Range-Vipers were already mean-spirited and tough, but the one who would be known as Skull Buster was the meanest and the toughest. He relished the hard life of a wilderness survivalist, eating anything that offered enough protein to be worth killing; though he would be willing to dine on carrion, he'd be more likely to kill and eat the scavengers that came to claim it. He imagined himself the ultimate predator.
A Real American Hero continuity
Marvel Comics continuity
- Note: although Skull Buster did not appear as a named character in the Marvel comics, Range-Vipers did. He may have been behind one of those masks at any time. See Range-Viper Appearances for examples of what he might have been involved in.
Devil's Due Comics continuity
Skull Buster decided to leave Cobra behind, and went to hide out in Namibia, along the Skeleton Coast. When World War III began, Shipwreck and Cover Girl were sent to apprehend him. When their ship sank and they washed up on shore, he kidnapped Cover Girl to use as bait for the other Joe. Shipwreck tracked them successfully, and a fight broke out. Skull Buster was getting the better of the sailor, but Cover Girl distracted him, and Shipwreck used a scorpion's sting to temporarily paralyze Skull Buster. He begged the Joes to leave him to die in the desert, because for him, that was preferable to being imprisoned. Naturally, they refused.[1]
He was held in the maximum security prison called "The Coffin," located in Greenland,[2] and was one of several operatives who escaped during a raid.[3]

Bryce Harper, the No. 1 pick in the 2010 draft, will play for the Nationals in the Arizona Fall League, a team official confirmed.
Harper, who turns 18 on Saturday, will get a chance to test himself against some of the game's top prospects after hitting .319 in the Nationals' instructional league in Viera, Fla.
The outfielder flashed both his inexperience and his prodigious power in the league, leading the team in RBI and runs scored and blasting a handful of opposite-field homers.
The Nationals signed Harper minutes before the Aug. 16 deadline to sign draft picks, and at that point, a source close to Harper said it was likely the team would send him to Arizona. But the Nationals wanted to see how he'd handle his first taste of pro ball in the instructional league before making a final decision.
Update (1:27 p.m.): MASNSports.com's Byron Kerr just spoke to Harper, who said he will head to Arizona on Sunday after taking the weekend to celebrate his 18th birthday with his family in Las Vegas. Both Byron and I will have more this afternoon.

Philipp Plein's punk rock range
Philipp Plein went punk rock for its Milan Fashion Week show last night (23Sept15).
German designer Philipp went all out with an edgy aesthetic for his Spring/Summer 16 collection, sticking to a strict colour palette made up of red, black, white and metallics.
One girl strutted the glass runway in a black leather skirt with stitching detail running up it, paired with a matching long-sleeved top. The fringe detail hanging from the shoulders only enhanced the '70s punk tribute, as did her strappy platforms.
Aother model wore a more feminine outfit of a pleated puffy skirt covered in red rose pint. On top was a black bodice with red petals and white stems, paired with a matching jacket.
But what really created the alternative vibe during the show was a full-throttle performance by musician Courtney Love, who belted out Hole track Celebrity Skin. The singer looked the part in dark ripped jeans, exposing her pale legs, and a black vest top. For Philipp, Courtney's role in the show was one of importance as she represented the authenticity he hoped to reflect through his designs.
"She is not just a part of the industry who plays someone else," he said, according to news.yahoo.com.
Philipp also wanted to reflect punk rockers through the rawness of his creations, noting that such people made their own jackets and cut their own hair. This was evident through hair dos such as a cropped bob and garments like a studded leather jacket emblazoned with the words 'God Save Hip Rock'.
Also showing on the first day of Milan Fashion Week on Wednesday (23Sept15) was Francesco Scognamiglio. The fashion star presented a delicate, feminine collection for S/S16 full of sheer, see-through material and floaty skirts. Because of the revealing nature of the pieces, many of the models' breasts were exposed as they walked the runway. Overall the range had the vibe of nightwear, with silk dresses covered in metallic patterns and lace looking like a nightie.
The bi-annual event continues today (24Sept15), with labels such as Max Mara, Fendi and Emilio Pucci all showing.

Back in December, I wrote about a Nativity Scene in Brookville, Indiana that had been up for over 50 years, despite warning letters (over the course of several years) from the Freedom From Religion Foundation to take it down.
The display is owned by the Town of Brookville and sat on the grounds of the Franklin County Courthouse.
The defenders of the display kept clinging to the same old arguments as usual: It's tradition. Just look away. Why do you hate Christmas?!
None of them wanted to address the legal issues.

But they also failed to administer first aid on time because they were busy arresting his sister.
The full version was obtained by the Northeast Ohio Media Group and released this week.
After forcing the victim's 14-year-old sister to the ground and handcuffing her, she was held in the car as paramedics arrived. The boy died in the hospital from his wounds the following day.

The tragic incident occurred after a 911 call to the Cleveland Police Department claimed that a boy was carrying a firearm and pointing it at people in the street. Despite the caller saying the gun was "probably fake," a Cleveland police officer fatally shot the young boy outside a recreation center.
The assumed weapon later proved to be a toy pellet gun that fires plastic bullets. Unfortunately, it lacked the bright orange tip that is usually put on such pistols to indicate they're not real.

Benjamin Crump, a lawyer for the Rice family, who has also represented the families of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown, issued the following response to the extended footage:
"This video shows in crystal-clear HD that the responding officers acted inappropriately and recklessly, both in how they handled the shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice and the events that immediately followed.
"The family is outraged that rather than comfort a sister coming to the aid of her dying brother, the officers instead manhandled and tackled her, cuffed her and thoughtlessly tossed her in the back of a patrol car."

CR Classification:
CR General Terms:
Keywords: Statecharts, Hierarchical Automata, Parallel Automata, Specification of Reactive Systems, Perfect Synchrony, Signal Feedback
Abstract:Statecharts are well accepted in industrial applications for specifying reactive, embedded systems. Unfortunately, a reference semantics has not been developed until now. Therefore, the semantics of Statecharts is still of interest in the science community. This paper presents a compositional, denotational semantics for a special subclass of Statecharts based on stream processing functions. The basic component of Mini-Statecharts is a deterministic, reactive, signal-triggered sequential automaton which can be composed in multiple ways. The composition operators are\: parallel composition, local signal-scoping, semantic feedback of signals, and decomposition of states. The main issues are the compositionality of the semantics, the definition of the semantic behavior for a kind of history mechanism, and the different views of the feedback operator.

The 23-year-old driver has been under the scanner for his relationships with Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger, Naomi Campbell, Danni Minogue and Vivian Burkhardt, a former Miss World runner-up.
"Lewis is a real hero for our viewers," Contactmusic quoted Joe Talbot, director of programming at Nuts TV as saying.
"He's a star on the track, and after pulling a Pussycat Doll, obviously a star with the women too. No wonder he is one of the top sports idols of recent years,"
"Formula one has a long tradition of men who are really 'living the dream' - so as long as he keeps up the hard work behind the wheel he shouldn't be embarrassed that F1 fans think he is the ultimate playboy," he added.
However, in terms of driving ability Hamilton lost out to F1 champ Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna. Hamilton was at the third place.
The second in line in success with women category was Scottish driver Jackie Stewart, followed by Irish driver Eddie Irvine on third.
The fourth spot went to British driver Jenson Button and David Coulthard on the fifth place.
Top five according to success with women:
1. Lewis Hamilton
2. Jackie Stewart
3. Eddie Irvine
4. Jenson Button
5. David Coulthard
Top five according to the champagne lifestyle:
1. Lewis Hamilton
2. Eddie Irvine
3. Jenson Button
4. James Hunt
5. David Coulthard
Top five according to sense of style:
1. Lewis Hamilton
2. James Hunt
3. Jenson Button
4. Ayrton Senna
5. David Coulthard

After yesterday's BBQ which was pretty meat heavy, something a bit lighter was on the menu for tonight. I was originally just going to do pan fried salmon with the Avocado Salsa but when I opened the fridge to get out the ingredients there was a half empty jar of Harissa staring at me so I decided to marinate the salmon first before pan frying it. I spread the Harrissa Paste all over the Salmon and then ran to the gym to get in 30mins on the cross trainer while the paste did its thing.
So to make this recipe, I left the Harissa on the Salmon for about 40mins in total. I roasted my vegetables for about 30 mins in the oven while I prepared the rest of the meal. I made the avocado salsa by mashing up one avocado, finely chopping two spring onions, juicing and zesting one lime and chopping up a small bunch of coriander leaves. I mixed all of this together and seasoned with salt and pepper. Once ready, I dry fried the salmon in a hot pan (the harrissa paste I used was already mixed with oil so it wasn't necessary to use any extra). I probably cooked the salmon for a minute to a minute and a half on each of its 4 sides – but I like my salmon fairly pink in the middle so you may want to do it for longer. Alternatively you could grill it or oven roast it, both of which would work just as well. This made enough for two of us but the serving of avocado was very generous.
I served it with garlic roasted mushrooms, roasted broccoli, asparagus and peppers (and some roasted potatoes for Dan). For more information you can check out My Ultimate Guide to Roasted Vegetables. The punch of lime from the avocado salsa really cut through the fattiness of the salmon and the meal was very light and fresh.
Is it an Avocado Salsa or is it just a Guacamole? Not entirely sure what the difference is, but Avocado Salsa sounds a bit different so that's what I'm going with!!


text: 000 FXUS63 KABR 211629 AAB AFDABR Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Aberdeen SD 1129 AM CDT Fri Jul 21 2017 .UPDATE... Issued at 1119 AM CDT Fri Jul 21 2017 Only minor adjustments needed to the wx/pops/qpf forecast for the rest of today into this evening. The only tidbit to note is a Fire Weather Watch has been issued for Saturday for central and north central South Dakota for the combination of dry fine fuels (drought area), breezy northwest winds and dangerously low relative humidity values. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday Afternoon) Issued at 422 AM CDT Fri Jul 21 2017 Continue to see scattered showers and storms across the region but much of the activity over the CWA has diminished over the past few hours. Recent development over FSD CWA seems to be related to the low level jet. Much like a couple days ago, the main stories today will be the high heat and the threat for severe storms for eastern areas. Concerning the heat, it appears the heat advisory is still in good shape so no changes were made to that as heat indices are still expected to exceed 100 degrees in the advised area. For this afternoon, strong instability will develop over eastern portions of the area ahead of the approaching frontal boundary. Deep layer shear will also be sufficient to support strong to severe storms for the eastern CWA. There is low confidence in areal coverage of storms, as well as initiation within our CWA as it appears a large area from the eastern Dakotas into western MN are all game. Could even have a few storms back into central SD due to very strong surface heating ahead of the front. On Saturday, drier and more stable air will enter the region as northwest winds begin to increase. Concern will switch to fire weather as RH values drop into the upper teens and lower 20s over central SD. The trend over the past couple days has been to increase winds above SuperBlend for Saturday afternoon, which may put at least north central SD into critical fire danger worthy of a headline. Further south things appear more marginal. Will let day shift consider the need for a fire weather watch as neighbors to the north have already done so. Although, winds may be a bit stronger further north in the region. .LONG TERM...(Sunday Evening through Thursday) Issued at 422 AM CDT Fri Jul 21 2017 Latest models are in fair agreement with the overall flow pattern. That mid level flow pattern should feature a continuation of a southern/southwestern ridge, with various s/ws tracking across the Northern Plains/southern Canada. The period should start off dry with sfc high having just moved across the region. However, by early to mid week, another boundary will slide south into the region, with a renewed chance of convection, especially the Tuesday through Wednesday time frame. Temperatures will probably average out right around normal for the time period as mid level heights and temps remain fairly stout. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Saturday Morning) Issued at 750 AM CDT Fri Jul 21 2017 VFR conditions are expected through the day but with more storms possible late this afternoon and evening. Some of those storms may prove severe. && .ABR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...Fire Weather Watch from Saturday afternoon through Saturday evening for SDZ267>270. Heat Advisory until 8 PM CDT /7 PM MDT/ this evening for SDZ016>018-033>037-045-048-051. MN...None. && $$ UPDATE...Dorn SHORT TERM...TMT LONG TERM...TDK AVIATION...TDK

I've been having these nightmares for some time now.
They're always the same – I'd dream I was in a small, grey, stone cell. I'd be lying down, and I'd feel groggy as if I had just woken up. Looking around, I'd see that I was shackled to the wall by my left arm.
Looking out of the cell though the barred door to see a hallway lit with black light, creating a purple hue on the white hospital gown I was wearing. These would all be constant in my dreams. Except for my captor. My captor would never remain constant. My captor didn't want to remain constant.
I can't quite say who my captor is or what he looks like, but I can see a big, hulking shadow with sanguine eyes staring at me unblinkingly in my compromised state.
The way he was looking at me always changed dream from dream; some days he would be looking at me hungrily, angrily, or sadistically joyful, to name a few.
These feelings would change regardless of how my day went or how I was feeling as I fell asleep; they would just be there. One thing didn't change though: every night, I would give my captor a look of fear, and it would be oddly saddened by this. It would close its eyes and walk down the hallway, away from my cell.
The only way I could comfort myself was by waking up. But my life began changing – at first, small objects like toothbrushes and car keys would be in totally illogical spots (once, I had found my wallet jammed inside an old VCR player I had.) Then changes became larger.
My street address, the style of my house – even my own name was changed. Yet these changes weren't shocking as much as realizations: a sense of "I should have known" would hit me as I realized these changes. As if I should have always known.
These changes occurred as I woke up. The feeling of stupidity I felt after I realized their existence would turn into anger – I knew these dreams were fucking with me. I didn't know what to do.
Today, however, nothing ostensibly changed, but I did have a new realization – confront my captor. He is the one who is ruining my life. I went through my day (which, for the first time I could remember, was similar to the day before) with a sense of stupidity. When night came, I felt anger. Of course I would. Today, my life was actually a constant.
I went to sleep, with one determined thought going through my angered mind – I will confront the captor – my captor – and fight for my freedom. Be it verbally or physically, I will win. Once I go to sleep.
So why is sleep not coming? Why am I still wide awake though I feel so groggy? Why is everything so dark? Wait… my eyes are closed.
I opened my eyes, which I had not even realized were even closed. I found myself in that cell, with the thing looking at me. The eyes, occasionally blood-red and hungry, were now faded and dulled. Could it finally be expressing sadness?
"Why are you doing this to me? Why are you haunting my dreams like this?" I asked it.
The creature continued to look at me with those sad eyes. Why isn't it responding?
"Leave me alone!" I tried to send myself flying at it, but I forgot about the chain binding my arm to the wall. I fell awkwardly on the floor when pain flooded over me – I had dislocated my shoulder.
My eyes watered and my vision grew red. I clutched my shoulder and screamed. The creature closed its red eyes and shook its head.
It spoke in a language that clearly wasn't English, but I could still understand it anyways. It spoke in a voice that seemed to echo from a thousand locations, yet came from one source. Yet its tone was similar to my own thoughts when I had a "realization" after I woke up.
"Why do you feel pain?"
The pain insisted, but my mind stopped. Pain isn't felt in dreams, right…?
The pain insisted, but it was now an afterthought. "No…"
"It's good to see you awake," my captor said. It turned around and walked slowly down the purple-tinged hallway.

Hello travellers!
I am Manuel from Germany and Intern at African Insight to the middle of December. Many students in my country go directly from school to university, to enter the business as fast as possible. For me this was no option, because I wanted to help people do practical work with amazing animals in an other country. That's why I decided to start an internship at African Insight.
When I arrived here in the middle of September, I expected nothing but a tent. These expectations have been exceeded, due my accommodation is a beautiful rondavel with warm water, a shower, a fridge and every other luxury I haven't been thinking of. On top of that every morning starts with giraffes, wildebeests and other animals directly in front of my house. I think this beautiful and peaceful view during every breakfast is every day a highlight again and the thing I will miss the most when I head home.
After this amazing start of the day I was involved in many amazing working experiences in the last two weeks for example we sprayed the cattle of the nearby community with an anti-tick-spray, game-captured Njalas for sale, fed the wilddogs, set up a solar panel and much more. We were also lucky enough to be able to join a rhino dart, where we darted and collared a white rhino for security and tracking purposes. This was very special as it was not something that I ever thought that I would be able to take part in, and it is very rare to be able to be involved in something like this so hands-on and as part of a team. It was the highlight of my trip, and something that I will treasure for the rest of my life!
The current two projects we implement right now are:
1. We monitor the leopards with camera traps set up all over the reserve and always position them in pairs, so that we take pictures of both sides of the animal which allows us to determine clearly every leopard. Besides the leopards we catch a lot of other animals' pictures, so you never know what you actually going to see.
2. My main objective in the last week was the creation of a detailed road map of the reserve, because we need to know all about our street network for security, management and tourism reasons. The practical work was very nice, due I had to drive through the whole reserve with a quad and a GPS Tracker. That's why I saw so many hidden places and tracks tourists never see. After this very pleasant practical part, I have to sit down in front of the computer to classify and categorize the routes, because the aim is to create different detailed maps for the tourists to make traveling in Somkhanda easier.
On top of that African Insight gave me the opportunity to travel in Kwa Zulu Natal, because i finished the work with the map in Howick. During this visit I met lots of new friends, had the most amazing mountainbike and hiking trips and was able to visit the Drakensberg. This organized traveling was another highlight during my three months with African Insight.
This big diversity of new experiences is the reason, why I want to encourage everyone thinking about an internship to do this either here in Somkhanda with African Insight or somewhere else, because the experiences you gain are amazing and the insights are more detailed than every tourist can think of.
My personal travel tip:
Leave your camera at home and experience this amazing area and its beautiful animals with your own five senses.

Description: During the past four years, political activism has grown to a level that has not been seen in the United States since the Vietnam War. Tensions over the war in Iraq and the presidential election motivated hundreds of thousands of people on both sides of the political fence to take to the streets. Politics the Wellstone Way offers a comprehensive set of strategies to help progressives channel that energy into winning issue-based and electoral campaigns. Wellstone Action is a nonprofit organization dedicated to continuing Paul and Sheila Wellstone's fight for progressive change and economic justice by teaching effective political action skills to people across the country. Politics the Wellstone Way is a workshop in book form, providing the detailed framework needed to jump-start a new generation of activists plus plenty of helpful tools for old pros, including articulating a strong message, base building, field organizing, budgeting, fundraising, scheduling, getting out the vote, and grassroots advocacy and lobbying, illustrated by practical and inspirational examples. From the school board all the way to the White House, Politics the Wellstone Way instructs people on becoming better organizers, candidates, campaign workers, and citizen activists, empowering them to make their voices heard. Wellstone Action was established by the Wellstones' two surviving sons, David and Mark. The main vehicle for this ongoing work is Camp Wellstone, a weekend training program that Wellstone Action leads regularly in locations across the country. Jeff Blodgett, Paul Wellstone's longtime campaign manager, is the executive director of Wellstone Action. For more information visit www.wellstoneaction.org.
