Ghost of a doubt - Greg O' Brien InterviewEdit
Ghost of a Doubt is written and drawn by Greg O'Brien. By his own admission his art needs approving but the writing and overall feel of the comic is top notch slice of life autobio stuff. Greg seems committed to making more issues and will definitely be a force to reckoned with once he learns how to draw hands.
- Was there any particular comic/book that made you want to create your own?
Well there's no particular comic that made think i want to make a comic, but there are a number of comics that I found inspiring and some comic artists that i take a lot of inspiration from and who made me really want work on my own comic. i guess my favourites are John Porcellino, Ben Snakepit, Art Spiegelman, Chris Ware, Daniel Clowes and Harvey Pekar to name a few. When i was in my early teens i read a lot of superhero comics but i kind of lost interest in them. Then over the past couple of years i've discovered comics that i really enjoyed and that were far different to anything i had ever read and they were the comics that made me want to create my own. It's funny though, when you tell people that you're interested in comics, by and large they'll think of superman, spiderman or the x-men and really its the same with music, often when you tell people you play music you'll get the response "oh so, we'll see you on pop idol some day soon no doubt", after a while you stop trying to explain.
- The first story in issue 1 'Nothing evers seems to work out right' deals with your anxiety about your life not being where you'd thought it should be by the age of 25. Has your existensial angst lowered now that you have the comic out?
No not at all, issue 1 was an important mental hurdle, i needed to prove to myself that i could actually put something together on my own, but that sense of angst hasn't died down at all. I've often said to friends that at times i wish i could just go home in the evening and sit down, watch t.v. and not think about working on music or comics but i can't i need to feel as if i'm being productive. The only time that sense of angst is lowered is when i really feel as if i am being productive, but once i'm finished a project i kind of get uptight about working on something new. i've been more anxious than ever over the past year and particular in the last couple of months, but as a result i am probably more productive now than i have ever been.
- You say in the intro that you learned alot making issue 1, in what areas?
Well i actually feel really dumb for this but Issue 1 was actually drawn the way it appears. i drew six panels onto an a5 sheet, scanned to my computer and then tidied them up a little, i've meet a couple of comic artists since then and they've looked at me like i'm nuts. So i've found by and large that people work onto a3 sheets and draw their art work nice and big and then bring it down to size on the computer. So i've started drawing my panels much bigger and it's much much easier, i don't know what i was thinking in the first place.
- Tell me about the plans to include a cd with issue 2.
i've always loved music and over the past couple of years i've gotten really into comics, but the thing is the two don't meet very often. So i'm not sure how aware people who are into music in ireland are of whats going on as regards comics in ireland and visa versa. So in a way it would be nice to introduce them. Comics and music are both great ways for a person express themselves, tell a story or do whatever it is they want to do. There is huge scope for experimentation within both areas and it i think is important that people see that there a lot going on right now in both music and comics in ireland that they might not necessarily be aware of. Also for me there is nothing better than sitting up on my bed reading a comic and listening to some music, that's the life.
- Your old band was called 'Our Space Age Army', I have a crazy book from the fifties by the same name. I presume one of you has it too or just a mad coincidence?
Yep that's where it came from, i borrowed that book from the library. 'Our space age army' was the first band i was ever in and it took us a long time to settle on a name. We were pretty loud when we used to practice at my house and during practice one day a buch of books fell off the wardrobe and Our Space Age Army was among them and so we agreed to name the band after the book.
- I thought you dealt well with your inablity to draw hands, what else don't you like drawing?
em, feet and for no apparent reason horses though i have no plan to feature a horse at present, i just don't like the idea of drawing one.
- Any funny tales from your day job? Sounds interesting.
God, where to start, kids will consistantly give you gold for writing, at some stage i wan't to write a comic about what kids have thought me. Recently, in class, a kid told me quite matter of factly that if you belch for longer than five seconds you can die, this is due to the fact that you rupture your stomach and have kidney failure, so i wouldn't advise that you try that out.
- How's issue 2 coming along?
Great, i have a couple of weeks off over christmas, so i plan to get a lot done in that time and have issue 2 in shops for february. As i've already mentioned i plan to have a cd and some other bits with the comic so that'll take some time but it'll worth it when it's done.
- Besides local shops in Dublin have you tried selling outside of Ireland?
At this point ghost of a doubt is only available in shops in Dublin, I hope to make it available further a field in the very near future, but aside from selling it outside of ireland i've found difficult finding other places in ireland that will take it on.
- Webcomics eliminate all the cost and distribution hassles, can you see yourself getting into them?
Yeah, there are some cool web comics out there. I'm interested in them and i guess it would be better for the environment if more people decided to publish on the web. To be honest though i don't really like to read from a p.c. i just don't enjoy it as much, recently i was reading a comic called 'shuck' on the internet and i really enjoyed it but after a while i just decided i'd order the paper copies because i'd prefere to sit down a take it easy rather than be hunched in front of a p.c. Also, maybe this is a bit selfish, but i prefer to own a hard copy, i'll always prefer a comic to web page just as i'll always prefere a c.d. or vinyl to an mp3. it's just nice to have that piece of art work in your hands, also if its all on computer there is always the worry that your computer will die and you'll lose all your stuff.
- Tell me more about the teaching Drugs awareness to kids. How did that come about?
When i was in college i had a saturday job working in a youth centre and when i finished college a full time job came up so i took that, then after a year they advertised a part time job teaching drugs awareness so i went for it and got it. it's a pretty sweet number and to me it's worthwhile work, i like it because we dont work from a "drugs are bad" kind of ethos, really we just talk to kids about drug related issues and a lot of those kids would be at risk so i think it's pretty important work. i worried a lot about the first comic in issue one, i felt i was being a bit moany because really there are a lot of people who would kill to have a job like mine, but on the other hand you can have the greastest job in the world but if working that job isn't how you want to spend your days or you don't find time to do what you really want then you'll never be really happy with it.
- Would you be able to handle sex education to kids?
At this stage i'd be grand with it, as a part of the drugs program i do a session on HIV/AIDS. Really the kids tend to get more embarrassed than i ever would, there are a couple who'll always try to test you but i think it would be a mammoth task to shock me and i tell them there is nothing that they can say that i haven't already heard, generally at the start of that session i'll tell them that we'll be discussing sex related issues so they should get there giggling done with early on and i play the "your in sixth class now so i expect your mature enough to discuss this issue" card. So i don't mind talking about sex with them now when we need to, because first of all the HIV/AIDS topic is a really important issue for them to get straight early on and secondly i think they repect it more coming from someone my age rather than a 50 year old priest (no disrespect intended). The hardest part of discussing sex with young people is generally trying to keep yourself from laughing at some of the stuff they come up with cause if you break a smile the doors are open for them to run wild with it. Last week i was working with a group and i asked how do people get aids and straight away there was young lads shouting "Bum sex" and "Poo pushing", it all comes down to how you handle it.
- What was the last film you saw that you disliked?
That last Harry Potter film, i thought it was terrible (i actually fel asleep for a while), a couple of people said i'd have to read the book, if i have to read the book after watching the film then why did they bother making a film?
- Without googling can you identify these characters [left]?
1. Some sort of care bear, BraveHeart? no wait that was Mel Gibson.
2. oh i know this one, its "Denver the last dinosaur, he's our friend and a whole lot more", i was thinking about that lately, how exactly was he a whole lot more to those kids? no wonder those guys (i think it was the fbi) were always after him.
- Neh-heh. That's Teddy Ruxpin and you're right on Denver the Dinosaur. It's touched on in the first issue but where do you see yourself in 10 years?
i honestly don't know, i cant even say where i see myself in ten days let alone ten years. As long as i'm still free to work on comics and music it'll all be cool though.
- Any closing comments?
nope, just thanks for the interview, i'm off for a beer or two and a snooze.

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) Borussia Dortmund dislodged Mainz from the top of the Bundesliga and established a new record in the process with a 2-0 victory on the road on Sunday.
Mario Goetze, an 18-year-old midfielder, scored in the first half and set up Lucas Barrios' goal in the second to help his team open a one-point lead over Mainz, which failed to convert a penalty.
Hoffenheim beat 10-man Hannover 4-0 in the late match on Sunday to move into third place, seven points behind Dortmund. Hannover dropped from third to sixth.
Dortmund became the first team in Bundesliga history to win its first five away games of the season and now has 25 points.
"We played some very good football against a tough team and we could have scored earlier," said Dortmund's coach Juergen Klopp, who started his career in Mainz. "Winning five straight on the road speaks for our strength."
Dortmund has six German championships and won the Champions League in 1997 but narrowly escaped bankruptcy a few years later.
Klopp's team took early control and Barrios rolled the ball wide of the goal when he was in a one-on-one situation with Mainz goalkeeper Christian Wetklo.
Wetklo then failed to control a back pass from defender Nikolce Noveski and the ball nearly ended in his net. But the goalkeeper later produced a good save to foil Goetze.
"We lost to a better team today, no doubt," Noveski said. "We showed some unusual weaknesses in defense."
Mainz has been the surprise of the season so far but has now lost two straight. It lost in the German Cup four days earlier, like Dortmund to lower-tier opposition. But Dortmund was able to bounce back.
Some sloppy defending allowed Goetze to shake off two Mainz players and score from inside the penalty area in the 26th minute.
Mainz could have got back in the match two minutes into the second half when Neven Subotic gave away a penalty by downing Adam Szalai.
But Roman Weidenfeller dived to his left to stop Eugen Polanski's shot from the spot.
In the 67th, Goetze provided the pass for Barrios, who rounded Wetklo and slotted home to secure Dortmund's victory.
Hoffenheim struggled early before finding its stride against a Hannover side, which was reduced to 10 men in the 18th minute when Manuel Schmiedebach picked up his second yellow card.
Gylfi Sigurdsson's deflected shot in the final minute of the first half made it 1-0 and Sigurdsson converted a penalty in the 48th to double the lead. Demba Ba and Peniel Mlapa added goals for the home side.

Hey folks. I've read an awful lot of information on levequests (and the associated confusion) on this and other boards, and thought I had it figured out, but there is still one major issue of confusion for me. Someone posted a thread about it on here but it died and went unanswered so I thought I'd restate the problem here.
I got a load of quests (some fighting, some botany) and completed most of them, then went back for more the next day. Presumably I'm still within the 48hr cooldown (or whatever). However he asked me to exchange my levequests for others, and told me about a bonus I could get for this. But in the list were quests that I had already completed. So, questions:
1) If I've completed them and got the reward, why are they still listed? Does this mean I can complete them again, or swap them for new ones? Neither of these seem to make sense as I understand the system.
2) If I haven't completed them but can swap for more, why not take 8, swap for another 8 with bonuses for swapping, and repeat?
3) Would he still be asking me to swap quests if the 48 hours weren't up? Would the completed quests disappear or something? Am I just not handing them in or something?
All in all, I'm confused. Thanks for your help.

Rhinoceroses are poser elephants with big horns and an even bigger ass. They are normally seen associating with bears. They are the bears African forces (Affirmative Action Laws) and are responsible for the Watergate Scandal and are the heads of the Koala/Rhino Organization, a faction working to start a Bear Uprising
Ursa, after leaving Noah's Ark , went to the Koalas for help in creating more bears. after training for years in the middle of the African savanna, she found an elephant and transformed it into the poser it is today.
Rhinos: The Cancer KillersEdit
The rhinoceros (commonly called "rhino", not to be confused with the Marvel Comics villian) is any of five surviving species of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae. All five living species are native to Africa, the Middle East, and southern Asia. Most species of rhino are endangered- the sixth species of rhino, the unicorn, is extinct.
A powerful rhinoceros, though herbivorous, is arguably one of the deadliest creatures on earth to humans, rivaling bears and sharks. In India and Nepal, rhinos cause the greatest number of wildlife-related human deaths each year, surpassing those caused by tigers and leopards. While bears are born man eating killers out of their satanic heritage, the rhino has a more anti clone, Jesus friendly motivation.
While a rhino will charge in the presense of humans it is for one reason and one reason alone (aside from the whole "people invading its territory/young in danger" thing) and that reason is cancer. Rhinos are the born enemy of all types of cancer and will go at great lengths to save a creature they believe has cancer even if it means charging into a worker elephant in the middle of the Indian jungle carrying a Swiss tourist with a mild case of skin cancer on his lower right arm. Generally peaceful creatures the presense of cancer can easily send a rhino of any age or creed (yes, even the extinct unicorns) into a frenzy.
It has been widely believed that the rhinoceros carries special knowledge about cancer in its mighty horn- this has been an easily dismissed part of folklore as any knowledge any creature has has been scientifically proven to come from its gut. Once a rhino does charge to the rescue of a being plagued by cancer there is a 70% chance that that being will be cured of the cancer. There's also a +/- 30% chance that that being will be dead as rhinos are not known for their dexterity or bedside manner. Even the gentle unicorn.

I've taken an extended break courtesy of the Step 1 Exam, but I'm excited to get back into things by wrapping up a previous blog. Just over a year ago, I wrote "Learning Chinese with Memory Techniques: Part 1 – The Gist." I've waited far too long to get this second part out, but here goes. What I'd like to do is simply discuss the method in more detail—complete with examples, tweaks I made to Serge's approach, and issues I faced. The good news is that, nearly a year in, I'm still happy with the method and will continue using it in earnest...
I got a question recently about how to remember the different branches of cranial nerve #5, the trigeminal nerve (shown at right). I thought I'd share my response here for any others interested. It's a beast of a nerve and no doubt gives most medical students headaches. I do, however, think memory palaces work really well for this type of thing. Let's get into it!
Unfortunately I've been getting crushed with catch-up studying, and so I haven't had much time to do the blog thing. But let's get back into it! Here's a quick intro to a project I'm really excited about: learning Chinese. I've been giving it a go for about 3 months now, and I wanted to share some of my strategies, thoughts, and struggles. I should also mention that I've been focusing on speaking Chinese, rather than writing it.

I've decided to start doing "weekly writes" where I write about the same topic... Here's my plan and why:
Today I'll start with a Prayer Request... stay tuned.
- Shout Outs to products, blogs, or business' (etc. etc.) that I really like. In a small way I hope I'm helping to get their name out there (even if it's just to my family and friends, haha)!
- Prayer Requests for people around the world or for people I know need prayer about something specific. I receive The Voice of the Martyrs magazine every month and the stories inspire me to be a better Christian. I mean these Christians are facing persecution on a daily basis and their faith in God only increases. I need that kind of faith and I know that prayer is powerful, so I'm going to ask my readers to hear their story and pray for them with me.
- Read and Reflect (R-n-R) because I'm always reading something and I think that my education at Doane College forced me to become a read and reflect kind of thinker. Every single time I read something we had to submit a reflection on it. It didn't matter if it was my education class or an english/language arts class, reflections were something I could whip up in 5 minutes or less (depending on how much time I had before class started). Now, when I read, I always want to write something down about it (thank you Doane!). If I'm going to write down my thoughts I might as well share them, right? (Haha, lucky YOU, I won't be offended if you don't read them.) P.S. my junior highers are probably giggling at this idea because everyday we had 15 minutes of reading and 5 minutes of R-n-R. They had a weekly grade that focused on thinking while you read skills that I lovingly called, R-n-R, and let-me-tell-you how much they loved it. :) They wanted it to mean rest and relaxation vs. read and reflect, hehe.
- AND, as you already know, I'm doing the weekly topic on Nebraska Bloggers Connect.
Today I'll start with a Prayer Request... stay tuned.

|[jira] Commented: (DERBY-716) Re-enable VTIs
|Thu, 03 May 2007 21:09:15 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-716?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12493525 ] Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-716: ------------------------------------- Thanks for the continued feedback, Dan. > Why is the VTIEnvironment class being removed from the VTICosting interface? Does it cause issues in some way? I had a couple issues with this class: 1) I don't know what to tell users who want to exploit this argument in their costing logic. The javadoc is not very helpful. In addition I couldn't find any explanation of this class in the Cloudscape 3.5 documentation which I consulted: There the class is mentioned as having been added for future expansion, but the methods are not explained. I could not find any examples of its actually being used by our diagnostic VTIs. 2) One of the methods in this class, isCompileTime(), seems geared toward the old Cloudscape VTIs, which were instantiated twice: at compile-time in order to bind() against the signature of the ResultSet, and at run-time in order to actually loop through the rows. This doesn't fit the ANSI scheme in which the bind() time information is declared when you CREATE the Function Table. > The separation of the creation of the VTICosting object from the creation of the VTI class means that the costing cannot take into > account the parameters being passed to the table function. Thus it might be hard for an application developer to have any meaningful > costing information, defeating the whole purpose of the interface. > > It also limits the any class to supporting just one static method that returns a ResultSet, unless they can all share the same exact costing information. I'm not happy with the flexibility of VTICosting and I welcome brainstorming on this topic. The signature of the VTICosting instantiator is a tricky issue. Consider the example in my reply to Army above. Here the arguments to the VTI are not known until run time. In fact, they change as the query runs and the VTI is re-instantiated for each row in the outer query block. In this case, what would be the signature of the VTICosting instantiator? For the moment, let's not worry about where we find the VTICosting instantiator. This could be a constructor in the Function Table's class, a distinctively named static method in that class, some other class or method bound to the Function Table via a system procedure, etc.. Instead, let's focus on the signature of the VTICosting instantiator. Here are some possibilities: A) A 0-arg signature. This is essentially what the current spec proposes. B) Some Derby interface like VTIEnvironment. The interface would have to be documented extensively. C) The same signature as the Function Table itself. We would substitute conventional defaults for arguments which could not be computed at bind() time--like ? parameters and correlated column references from outer query blocks. D) A leading prefix of the Function Table's signature. Here we would raise an exception if one of the leading arguments could not be computed at bind() time. What are your thoughts? > Re-enable VTIs > -------------- > > Key: DERBY-716 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-716 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: SQL > Reporter: Rick Hillegas > Attachments: functionTables.html, functionTables.html > > > Cloudscape used to expose Virtual Table Interfaces, by which any class which implemented ResultSet could be included in a query's FROM list. Derby still exposes a number of these VTIs as diagnostic tools. However, Derby now prevents customers from declaring their own VTIs. The parser raises an error if a VTI's package isn't one of the Derby diagnostic packages. > This is a very powerful feature which customers can use to solve many problems. We should discuss the reasons that it was disabled and come up with a plan for putting this power back into our customers' hands. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

There is no denying that the Streets of Rage series is one of Sega's most popular outside of Sonic. It is a tragedy of gaming that they have not kept SoR updated on newer platforms like they have Sonic. Streets of Rage 2 continued the beating up of multiple enemies that started with the original SoR. Just more stuff, better animations and better graphics this time around and fans returned in droves to support it. Fans are still supporting it with new characters being added regularly via hacks.
The idea of SoR 2 is pretty simple. Walk to the right and beat the hell out of anyone that comes on the screen. Collect weapons and health as needed/available and progress to the boss. Oh the bosses. Sega was quite edgier back in the day. The Streets of Rage series was proof of that. There are dominatrix's and in SoR 3 when you meet Ash, well, your reaction will probably say a lot about your subconscious point of views.
Streets of Rage 2 belongs in a genre that retro fans will remember as "brawler" or "scrolling fighting" or something similar. Final Fight and TMNT: Turtles in Time are other popular games in this genre. Why Sega dropped SoR when they transitioned from 16-Bit to 32-Bit is beyond me.
There are many mods for Streets of Rage 2. These are mostly character additions that add Cody (from Final Fight), Batman and Superman, Scott Pilgrim and even Donkey Kong. Other mods change the basics of the game to become a boss rush battle where you fight one boss after the other in survival mode. Then there are the mods that fix the censorship that we saw in North America thanks to Sega thinking SoR 2 went "just a little too far" for USA based gamers. Finally we have color correction mods that only change the colors to be more realistic and less cartoon looking.
Thank you Sega for at least understanding your audience in the 16-Bit days. We still remember you from then too.
If you are missing Streets of Rage from your collection, hit Ebay and help support RGM so we can keep bringing you articles like this.

Okay here is my theory about how the dragon, samurai, marines and world government are related in this arc.
Here goes. The dragon race who had live in isolation for hundreds of years until humans (mostly the samurai of the wano country and marines) saught to eliminate them because of the threat they posed was once had a fair amount of members. The dragon in the current plot is one of the few surviving dragons and it decided to take revenge for it's fallen comrades and started to attack humans (mostly world government bases and villages and towns of the wano country). After destroying multiple government bases and villages the dragon came across a marine base which was distant from other islands (Punk Hazard) which was a winter islands after defeating the marines it decided to make this base its domain and began to burn the island with flames strong enough to burn the seas to make the island more to its liking. Due to this the government had to seal the island off from the public. The dragon continued its rampage of vengance on the government and wano country. The wano country became infuriated due to the dragons actions and secretly requested permision from the government to send a few select samurai to slay the dragon the government agreed because the samurai of the wano country were once known as dragon slayers and they did not want to waste any more soldiers and the government thought it might help them to get the wano country to join the world government. Due to the powerful samurai on the island the dragon could not leave unless they were defeated and the samurai could not return home without the dragons head. The constant fighting caused the dragon to remain on only half of the island causing the flames it put on the other half to go out and that half regained its frigid temperature and the samurai made this there half of the island only leaving when they attempted to take the dragons head. Although there are quite a few samurai on the island only one is on par with the dragon but he only fought the dragon a few times due to him being reluctant to go home to the wano country because he likes killing the foolish pirates or anyone who sets foot on the island but if he went back home he would not be allowed to do this but on the other hand he would lose his honor if he let the dragon escape so much to the other samurais dislike he is just content on keeping the dragon on the island. Even though the strongest samurai doesnt want to slay the dragon the other ones try to take its head on a regular basis but the leader doesnt care because he believes that he is the only one capable of taking the dragons head. But now the the Straw Hat Pirates arrive on the island and everything will change.

DENHAM SPRINGS — A high-tech metal-coating operation is coming to Livingston Parish..
CAP Technologies in Baton Rouge announced its move into a mostly new and renovated 50,000-square-foot location in Livingston Parish.
The company intends to be fully operational in about six months.
"We're very excited about this," said Edward Daigle, owner of CAP Technologies, from the production floor of the new plant space Wednesday after visiting with Gov. Bobby Jindal and other local and business officials.
"This is what we've been working toward," he said.
Once operational, the plant will employ 40 to 45 workers, each earning about $52,000 a year, Daigle said.
CAP began about 10 years ago at the Louisiana Business and Technology Center, a business incubator at LSU.
It then moved to a location on Industriplex Boulevard in Baton Rouge.
"Born on a university campus, CAP Technologies is exactly the type of company we want to help cultivate in Louisiana in order to diversify our economy and create more jobs for our people so they don't have to leave home to pursue their dreams," Jindal said in a statement.
CAP uses an electronic process to clean and coat metal — primarily wire — so it can be used for other purposes.
The process replaces the use of harsh acids that leads to hazardous storage and disposal issues at conventional metal-coating businesses, the company said.
CAP's technology is patented in 21 nations, with additional patents pending.
The company developed what's known as Cathodic Atmospheric Plasma technology.
Steel rods will come into the plant, then go out as wire, Daigle said.
The company is retrofitting and expanding a former wood beam-laminating plant in Denham Springs next door to a Terminix facility.
The improvements are resulting in a $8.1 million capital investment.
"CAP Technologies is a great regional success story," said Adam Knapp, president and CEO of the Baton Rouge Area Chamber.
"This company was developed in a research university incubator and is now creating high-paying jobs for the metro region," he said. "A key strategy for our growth is to see university innovations lead to private-sector job creation."
CAP plans to dedicate about 20 percent of its new space to research and development, Daigle said, adding he hopes to attract more technology-related companies to Louisiana.
"When we get everything installed and we begin operating, we will be leaders and could have companies from around the world coming to visit," he remarked. "So there's a little bit of added benefit for Louisiana."
CAP Technologies will use several economic development incentive programs offered by the Louisiana Department of Economic Development, namely the Research and Development Tax Credit program, which provides up to a 40 percent tax credit for research and development activities that meet particular qualifications.
CAP Technologies also will use Louisiana FastStart, a job-training program; the Quality Jobs program, which allows for salary rebates or investment tax credits if CAP technologies meets specific job-creation goals; and the Industrial Tax Exemption program, which provides a 100 percent property tax abatement for up to 10 years for new capital investments made on the property.
"Companies engaged in innovative research and development harbor true potential for our state's economy when their work reaches the commercialization stage," LED Secretary Stephen Moret said in a statement.
"CAP Technologies is an example of such a company, one that attracts significant venture capital, creates high-paying jobs and carves a new, important market niche as an economic driver firm — all outcomes we love to see take shape in Louisiana."

The Supreme Court also expressed concern over discrimination, harassment of transgenders in India and directed the government to take remedial measures
The Supreme Court on Tuesday granted recognition to transgenders as third category of sex.
The apex court also directed the Centre and states to provide facilities of healthcare and education to transgenders, saying they are a socially backward community.
Transgenders are citizens of the country and have equal rights to education, employment and social acceptability. The third gender people will be considered as other backward classes (OBCs), the apex court said.
The SC said they will be given educational and employment reservation as OBCs.
The apex court has expressed concern over discrimination, harassment of transgenders in the country and directed the government to take remedial measures.
Direction and pace of policy reforms in India, more than which political party takes control, can affect the ratings on the sovereign, says ratings agency S&P
Direction and pace of policy reforms in India, more than which political party takes control after the general election can affect the ratings on the sovereign, says Standard & Poor's (S&P) Ratings Services in two reports published Tuesday.
"We believe that the current political landscape in India suggests that no single party could win an outright majority," said S&P's sovereign credit analyst Kim Eng Tan. "An important factor is how fragmented the government will be. The more parties involved in the next coalition government, the more likely policies will be incoherent and less supportive of credit attributes."
According to the reports, titled "India's Election Is Pivotal for Its Sovereign Creditworthiness" and "The New Government's Reform Policies Will Be Critical To The Credit Profile Of Indian Corporates And Banks," the outcome of India's general election can provide an insight into the political stability, ability, and willingness of the new government to implement reforms for boosting economic growth.
S&P says the elections and subsequent policy actions could decide if the sovereign rating remains investment grade (at present unsolicited ratings: BBB-/Negative/A-3). If we revise our sovereign outlook to stable, those negative outlooks on banks and corporate entities, which reflect the sovereign outlook, could also be revised to stable. Ratings on government-related entities (GREs), companies rated above the sovereign, and banks that are capped at the sovereign rating level or benefitting from uplift due to government support will likely be downgraded, if we lower the sovereign rating, it added.
"We believe a decisive mandate can create an environment for speedy resolution of policy bottlenecks and reforms, and improve private sector investments," said S&P's corporate credit analyst Abhishek Dangra. "This can lay the foundation for India's return to a stronger and healthier growth phase in the medium term. Conversely, a fragile government could further delay critical reforms as decision-making gets hampered, curbing revival in the investment cycle and derailing growth."
India's 16th general elections, where more than 800 million people are eligible to vote, are underway. To claim the right to form a new government, a single political party or a coalition of political parties needs to win 272 out of 543 seats.
"In our view, the infrastructure, power, metals and mining, and petroleum sectors are more exposed to risks from development in government policies affecting corporate performance and banks' asset quality and capitalization needs," Dangra said.
The new government's policy directions will set the medium-term growth expectations and long-term structural factors for the economy. In our opinion, structural reforms are essential for India to return to healthier economic growth of above 6% on a sustainable basis and stimulate investments, the ratings agency added.
Positive performance of our stock-picks continues

He wears a belted plaid - a double width of tartan about five metres long, belted around the body to form a kilt and cloak. This traditional highland costume is worn with a fashionable doublet. He holds a flintlock sporting gun and carries two pistols in his belt. He also has a dirk and a ribbon basket sword. His servant, in the background, carries a longbow, used for hunting deer. Lord Mungo died young, fighting the Spanish in Panama in Central America.

John Michael Wright
The son of a London tailor, John Michael Wright took the unusual step of serving his apprenticeship, from 1636, with George Jamesone in Edinburgh. In the early 1640s Wright went to Rome, where he remained until 1656, becoming a member of the Academy of St Luke. On his return, he lived in London, but he travelled to Dublin in the late 1670s and to Rome in 1686. Wright is one of the most distinctive British-born painters of the seventeenth century, with a confident approach to his sitters and a subtle sense of colour.

text: Ever since the back injury, I've been leaning 90% towards exiting the business. Last night, I was laying in bed, unable to sleep. I was thinking about the wage taxes and how they are just killing me. So I did a Yahoo seach under misclassified workers. I found this. http://www.jbartram.com/Relief_Programs_When_Workers_Are_Misclassified.html It says that as long as you have always treated your workers as subcontractors and you have a "reasonable basis" for treating the workers as subcontractors, you can do it. A "reasonable basis" for not treating workers as employees automatically exists if:A significant segment of the industry your business is in has historically treated similarly situated workers as independent contractors. I've treated my employees as employees, thanks in large part to time I've spent on LawnSite. It now appears that I've been making a very, very costly mistake. I may very well be the only landscaper in my area who is paying emplyment taxes on workers wages. If I stay in the business, I'm thinking I can just re-incorporate and hire sub-contractors next year. I'll talk to the accountant about it. It appears the green industry has an exemption from paying employment taxes. Later, DFW Area Landscaper

my pregnancy journey
random thoughts from a first time mom
week 37
2 cm!!!!!!
whoa nelly….slow down there!!
i had another doctor's appt today and I am now 2 cm dilated!!! my fundal height measured 36 inches at 37 weeks - growing great. the baby's heart rate was a tad low (110's) when the dr checked, so i had an ultrasound to make sure he was ok. by the time we got to the ultrasound room, it was back up in the 120's and he was moving and breathing fine. i have great fluid levels and he is now a hearty 6 lbs 15 oz!!! right in the 55 percentile. his head is still measuring a little big, but they assure me that is common :). we had a great laugh with the ultrasound tech who got an awesome shot of our little one's hand positioned right around his boy parts….and so it starts :)
i've been having pretty regular cramping at night now that keeps me (and aaron) up at night. apparently this is pretty common, especially at night. i don't really have problems with cramping during the day, which is great, but my back is another story. if i sit or stand for an extended period of time, i get an excruciating pain if i put any weight on my right leg. regular visits to the chiropractor and doing yoga/elliptical workouts 2-3 times a week has been helping i think, along with not staying in one position for a long time.
we've been busily working on the nursery and last minute things to get ready for the big arrival. aaron's parents arrived this weekend and have been a huge help in our last min projects and everyday chores that i've having difficulty doing now. linda and i made 24 freezer crockpot meals on sunday to make cooking as easy as possible once the baby arrives. after 2 hours of grocery shopping and 3 hours of chopping and bagging, our new deep freezer is full with ready to eat meals! i am finally feeling prepared and ready for this baby!
our baby BOY is the size of a winter melon!!!

A new documentary "The Doctor's Sword", will examined the life of the Cork doctor who survived Dunkirk, was a prisoner of war after being captured by the Japanese in Java, and survived the atomic bombing of Nagasaki.
Aidan MacCarthy was a University College Cork-trained media from West Cork whose tale of one of the many stories of amazing survival from World War II. He was the first non-Japanese doctor to assist in the relief efforts after the bombing of Nagasaki, and was given a Samurai sword by a Japanese officer.
The movie follows MacCarthy's family's search to uncover the origin of the sword, which now resides in the famous MacCarthy's Bar, in Castletownbere, Co Cork, and therefore looking at the great man's achievements.
At 28 MacCarthy joined the Royal Air Force (RAF), in London, as the Second World War began. Soon after he found himself evacuated from Dunkirk. In May 1941 he received the George's Cross for rescuing the crew of a burning RAF plane which had crashed into a bomb dump on landing. He volunteered for service in Asia as Singapore fell to the Japanese and was captured in Java. He survived almost four years of brutal captivity enduring starvation, malnutrition, forced labor, beatings, and torture as a prisoner of war.
MacCarthy was a prisoner of war at the camp attached to the Mitsubishi steel and iron works in Nagasaki when the atomic bomb was dropped on the city at 11:02am on August 9 1945. This was the beginning of the end of his captivity and he later returned home with a Samurai sword which was given to him as a gift by the prisoner of war camp commander at the end of the war.
The documentary tells Dr Aidan MacCarthy's incredible story of resilience and bravery, and his daughter Nicola's journey to find the family of the Japanese officer who gave their ancestral sword to her father.
The film premiered at the Cork Film Festival last November to a sold-out crowd, prompting a second screening. Its gala screening will be on August 6.

If your solution's final volume of 32.55 mL yields 3.6 grams of AgCl, determine the Molarity of the final solution. Also, how many milliliters of a 1.85 M solution of AgNO3 did you add to an excess of
aqueous NaCl to provide the 3.6 grams of AgCl?
I don't understand the question.
Actually this question is two parts.
The first part is to find the Final Molarity which is
(3.6 g * 1 mole /143.35 g) / (32.55 ml * 1 L /1000 ml) = 0.77 mol/L or M
The second part is to find how many millilitres of AgNo3 which has 1.85 M.
I don't understand how to do this second part.
Please help me this.

Online Grocery Shopping Survives
Top supermarket retailers dominate ownership of dot-coms.
CHICAGO -- Online grocery shopping, a dot-com fad that never produced a profit, has survived, but in the hands of its original competitors, the bricks-and-mortar grocers. Every one of the top grocery retailers now has an online presence. Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Kroger Co., Albertsons Inc. and Safeway Inc. take online orders in at least some markets.
In 1998, online grocery sales were a meager $85 million. They jumped to $668 million in 2001 and to reach $5.4 billion by 2007, according to Jupiter Research, an industry tracker. While large, that's nothing compared to one-time forecasts of $33.6 billion by 2002. The grocery industry's sales were $431.8 billion in 2002, according to the Chicago Daily Herald.
While still small, the online segment is one that few top retailers want to miss out on, even though it's still not reliably profitable. Every independent online grocer start-up failed. California-based Webvan Group Inc., for instance, couldn't sell enough online to pay for huge warehouses it built, and ended in bankruptcy.
In the Chicago area, Skokie-based Peapod Inc. was saved from oblivion only by a last-minute injection of $73 million from giant Dutch grocer Royal Ahold.
Ahold paired Peapod's eastern operations with major brick-and-mortar grocery chains it owned: Stop & Shop and Giant. Peapod still runs its own operation in Chicago, where it is not affiliated with any grocery chain, and "warerooms" used to fill orders in Washington, D.C., and Hartford, Conn. The Hartford wareroom opened April 28 adjacent to an Ahold store. Other places, it gets its groceries from Ahold's stores, the report said.
Annette McMillan, director of marketing and corporate relations for Peapod, told the Chicago newspaper that being part of a bricks-and-mortar retailer is the way to survive in the industry.
In 2001, its sales rose to $100 million and McMillan said sales growth has been about 25 percent in the last year. Peapod says it is profitable in four of its five markets, but won't say which.
Neither Safeway nor Albertsons is making a profit, but they say they expect to soon.
Mike Spindler, president of MyWebGrocer.com, a company that assists smaller grocery stores with online ordering systems, said customers shop online for convenience. A saved grocery list can be updated online in 10 minutes, he said. Online grocery shopping involves going to a Web site, selecting items and designating a delivery or pick-up time.
The cost is not convenient. Peapod delivers to the home for anywhere from $5 to $10, depending on the size of the order. Safeway charges $10 for delivery. Albertson's offers a choice: pick-up for $5 or delivery for $10. Spindler said that most of the grocery stores he works with have customers pick up their pre-packed orders at the store. The service is usually free.
Prices of items typically are the same as store prices. Discount coupons and cut-rate delivery in off-peak times are common. The selection is broad. In Chicago, Peapod offers 9,000 items, while retailers associated with specific stores can offer up to 30,000 items.

How to break your addiction to Heroin From Home
Heroin is one of the most addictive opiates in its class, affecting over 2 million families and individuals in the United States alone. Data spanning from 2002 indicates that the average heroin addict ingests around 200mg of heroin every day, leading to more heroin-related deaths than traffic-related fatalities over the past few years. In a recent study, the CDC reported that heroin-related deaths in 28 states had doubled within a two-year span between 2010 and 2012 (CDC, 2014). Heroin addiction has been implicated in many criminal activities across the country, not to mention the millions in losses resulting from loss of labor from the U.S. economy. Despite the bleak picture painted by the statistics, there is hope for the hundreds of thousands who are addicted across the country. Heroin withdrawal produces some of the harshest symptoms of all opiates. However, with a strong mental resolve and physical preparation, beating your addiction to heroin is possible even from the comfort of your home. Heroin, like other addictive opiate painkillers, attaches to receptor sites on nerves endings in your brain and imitate endorphins produced by the body. Endorphins are chemicals produced by the body to suppress pain and induce emotional and physical happiness. When heroin occupies their receptor sites on the nerves, the body ceases to produce natural endorphins and becomes dependent on the less efficient "synthetic endorphins."
Once you begin withdrawal, the symptoms that you get are caused by the lack of endorphins and the body's efforts to start producing them again. During the first 12 hours after you miss your dose, you will start experiencing cold chills, stomachaches sweating, fatigue, sleeplessness, muscle aches and pains, teary eyes, constant yawning, and a runny nose. As you approach 48 hours, your symptoms will advance to diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and mental psychosis. The duration of the withdrawal symptoms varies from one individual to another, so it is important to see your doctor to get the complete picture of what you should expect.
Options for Breaking your Heroin Addiction at Home
There are several methods that you can use to break your heroin addiction. One of the methods that are commonly used is going 'cold turkey', which involves stopping your dose abruptly without using other drugs or reducing your dosage. Most research advises against going cold turkey because of the severity of withdrawal symptoms and the tendency to relapse after successfully quitting. Another method involves the use of less potent opiates like methadone to wean off heroin intake. The best method is a slow taper, where you gradually reduce your intake until the dose is small enough to stop without any dramatic symptoms. Research shows that this method presents the best chance for addicts to prevent a relapse in future after becoming clean.
How to Break your Heroin Addiction from the Comfort of your Home
With heroin withdrawal, it pays to be adequately prepared before starting the process at home. The first and probably the most important point to consider is your mental preparation. Making the decision to quit should be your decision after a careful evaluation of your life and the impact the addiction has had on you, your family, and friends. This will give you emotional and mental strength once you start the withdrawal process.
After you make a solid decision to quit, begin planning for the process. Tell close friends and family who can support you emotionally, mentally, and physically during the process. It is also important to inform your doctor and discuss with them the best strategy to achieve your goals. Many heroin tapers typically involve a 5-10% reduction in dosage every few days to ensure that withdrawal symptoms are not very nasty. The doctor will advise you on the best dose reduction strategy and will most likely check up on you during your home taper to ensure you are okay. You should also ask your doctor to prescribe you some medicine for the muscle cramps, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and nausea for use during the withdrawal period. The most commonly prescribed medicine for these symptoms includes Advil, Tylenol, Pepto-Bismol, and Imodium AD.
Additionally, make sure you are fully stocked with essential supplies and food for at least two weeks. Food and drinks should top the list of items that you should get from the store. Once you start vomiting, sweating, and diarrhea, you will always be acutely dehydrated. Dehydration during a heroin taper will most likely lead to serious complication so you should always stock up enough fluids to help you through. Sports drinks such as Gatorade and other fluids like orange juice will help keep you hydrated. Even though you will develop a strong aversion to food, it is important to force yourself to eat healthy food throughout the withdrawal period. On the first few days, start with light food such as rice and yogurt and work your way up to heavier foods such as chicken as you proceed with the regimen. Remember to stock up on a lot of fruits and vegetables for vital vitamins and minerals. Avoid greasy, fatty foods that are obtained from fast food outlets because these tend to mess up with your digestive system.
You should also remember to take some time off from work and from every other activity that normally keeps you preoccupied during the day. Find good clothes that you can easily take off and put on to assist with the hot and cold sweats. Get adequate rest and always sleep whenever you feel drowsy or sleepy to account for the lack of sleep that comes at night. Find a good distraction like a new hobby, good music, TV, video games, or regular walks around the neighborhood to keep your mind preoccupied. The key to winning the battle is by mastering your thoughts and not giving too much attention to the withdrawal symptoms.
