A SECURITY guard has been robbed of cash while delivering money to a store in Malvern.
The victim was outside Marks and Spencer on Roman Way around 10.45am yesterday when he heard someone shout 'Watch out' at him.
Startled, he dropped the cash box which was picked up by an unknown man who ran off with it to a waiting car - possibly a blue Saab 93 - which was driven off by another person.
A short time later a Saab matching the description was found in nearby Spring Lane, while the cash box was found empty and discarded opposite the petrol station on Sandys Road.
It is not known how much money was stolen by the offenders.
"Although shaken by this incident the security guard was not physically harmed as a result of it," said a police spokesperson.
"The incident happened very quickly but the security guard has been able to give brief descriptions of the man that took the cash box and the man driving the car.
"The man who stole the cash box is described as being white and as wearing a grey hooded top, while the male driver of the vehicle is said to have been wearing a black beanie hat.
"We'd like to reassure people that incidents of this nature are extremely rare but would ask anyone who believes they may have information about it to come forward as soon as is possible."
The spokesperson said anyone who witnessed the robbery, or who may have seen the Saab being dumped on Spring Lane or the cash box being discarded on Sandys Lane, should contact them.
Anyone with information should call 101, quoting incident number 201S 260514.

Middle part of the line was absolutely awful all game. Haynesworth was killing us.
Well, how about someone who taped the game tell us what defense the Titans were in on those two plays before we hang our offense out to dry?
The "analysis" I've seen so far seems to me to be because a pass play wasn't completed.
Don't thank me, I'll kill ya.
Man, that game was a grinder. I was sweatin' a little bit there at the end, but I was fairly confident we'd find a way to pull it out.
I think we missed Keiaho today.
I was also surprised not to see much of Fisher's bag-o'-tricks. He's usually good for at least one a game.
Our division is looking pretty tough right now, though the Saints looked like complete @$$ today.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/12/2012 (1721 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
It's a small device that can save your life in the event of a cardiac arrest, and soon it will be nearly as commonplace in Manitoba as a fire extinguisher.
The Selinger government will require the installation of as many as 8,000 automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in public places by Jan. 31, 2014.
Manitoba is believed to be the first jurisdiction in North America to legislate such widespread public access to the devices. On Wednesday, the government outlined where AEDs will be located and how organizations can acquire and register them.
"The bottom line is defibrillators save lives, and that's why this program is being rolled out," Premier Greg Selinger told a news conference at the Sturgeon Heights Community Centre.
He announced the province is purchasing 1,000 AEDs, which retail for between $2,000 and $2,500, depending on the model. They will be available through the Heart and Stroke Foundation on a first-come, first-served basis beginning Jan. 7.
The Heart and Stroke Foundation has also negotiated with distributors so organizations required to purchase them will receive discounts of 30 to 40 per cent off the regular price.
The foundation will keep a registry of all AEDs in the province. The registry will be shared with 911 dispatchers to help those trying to care for a cardiac-arrest victim find the nearest defibrillator.
When someone undergoes cardiac arrest, speedy care is essential. Every minute that goes by without assistance reduces the chances of survival by 10 per cent, paramedic Chris Broughton said Wednesday. "Simply waiting for help to arrive is waiting too long," he said.
AEDs come with voice instructions that are easy to follow. No training is necessary to use them. They are also designed in such a way that they cannot cause harm. If the AED does not detect an irregular heart rhythm indicating potential cardiac arrest, it will not deliver a shock. Yet, its use can improve survival rates by 75 per cent over the administration of CPR alone.
"The technology is so good now that a Grade 4 student could do this by paying attention," Health Minister Theresa Oswald said Wednesday.
Altona police Chief Perry Batchelor knows first-hand how valuable AEDs can be. In 2008, he led a fundraising effort to purchase a device for the town's rec centre. A year later, he was refereeing a hockey game when he had a massive heart attack. The unit he helped purchase saved his life.
On Wednesday, Batchelor, who has made a full recovery, said he's happy there will soon be a proliferation of the devices in Manitoba. "Having them in schools and other public places is huge," he said.
Numerous venues
must have AEDs
A list of designated public places that will require automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to be in place by Jan. 31, 2014:
Fitness clubs, gyms and other facilities. (Includes facilities that either have 150 or more individual members, or in which at least 20 hours of indoor group physical-activity programs are held in the majority of weeks in a year. This would include martial arts facilities, dance studios and wellness centres that meet the membership or group activity frequency guidelines.)
Community centres. A community recreational facility must have an AED if it has at least 20 hours of indoor group physical-activity programs held in the majority of weeks in a year. The AED must be made publicly accessible to the indoor portions of community centres during their regular hours of operation.
Clubhouses of golf courses.
Other athletic facilities, including: indoor public swimming pools, indoor arenas used primarily for hockey or other ice-skating activities and curling clubs.
Schools, colleges and universities. For universities and colleges, AEDs are required in athletic facilities.
Airports, train and bus stations.
Homeless shelters.
Major shopping centres, including Polo Park, St. Vital, Kildonan Place, Portage Place, Cityplace, The Forks Market, Grant Park, Garden City and the Bay downtown.
Major sporting venues including the MTS Centre, Investors Group Field, Shaw Park, Assiniboia Downs.
Museums, cultural centres and other popular destinations, including the Centennial Concert Hall, Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium (Brandon), Manitoba Museum, Royal Winnipeg Ballet, Centre culturel franco-manitobain, Winnipeg Art Gallery and Assiniboine Park Zoo.
Winnipeg City Hall.
Millennium Library.
Winnipeg Convention Centre.
Legislative building.
Law Courts building in Winnipeg and courthouses in Brandon, Dauphin, The Pas, Morden, and Minnedosa.

Is Taking Hydrocodone During Pregnancy Safe?
I have a friend with a bulging disc in severe pain. She has been on pain meds for 6 years. Just found out she was pregnant. She does not abuse the pain meds, but wants to come off of them during her pregnancy. What to do?
Hydrocodone is not harmful to the fetus during pregnancy if it is taken in small doses intermittently. However, if it is taken every day, the baby will become dependent on it and will go through withdrawal after birth. Your friend should tell her obstetrician about the pain medication she takes. Physical therapy may be another way of treating her pain.

Haynes isn't durable?
How do you define "durable"?
In 2002:
- Haynes averaged nearly 6 innings per start (~5.8)
- Dessens averaged nearly 6 innings per start (~5.9)
- Dempster averaged exactly 6 1/3 innings per start
I would call a starter "durable" if he is able to pitch over 6 innings per start.
Which directly leads me to the following point:
Dessens had a career year, and there is no reason to believe he can keep last years numbers up. They were an aberration. He is a 6 inning pitcher at best w/ a 4.40 era. We could get that from Brian Reith.
As you see, it's a legend that Haynes was more durable in 2002 than Dessens. Actually it was the other way around although you can say, that both are strictly 6 inning pitchers. I remember a good statement from Red Storm some time ago. He wrote, that Boone and Gullett handled Hanyes beautifully, as they more often than not pulled the plug on the questionables in the exact perfect spot in the 5+ IP range to save the team from worse damage.
Btw, do you believe that Haynes could repeat his 15 win season? The truth is that he was about the same pitcher with the Brewers in 2001, as he was with the Reds in 2002. Speaking of his ERA, Haynes had a career year ... otherwise he had almost the same hit, walk and IP ratio like with the Brewers. His just got better run support (4.71 in 2002 compared to 3.75 in 2001).
bullpen looks better than last year actually Willy finished very strong, as did Chen.
Why does the bullpen look better???
Rijo is over the hill
Sullivan had a horrible year, hopefully his arm is sound
Chen did not finish especially strong
(His last 10 outings: 9.53 ERA!)
Riedling looks promising
Hudson is unproven and gives up too many walks. His fastball is fast, but straight.
Willy is more than proven IMO.
He has been around a while, but is not a proven closer as his 4 blown saves in 12 chances in 2002 state.
Best relief pitcher we have is not White, but is probably Sully. I look for him to bounce back from a subpar year.
Last season White was among the best LH reliever in the majors. Unfortunately he also wasn't available for a longer stint because of injuries. In contrast to other lefthanders, Gabe is a great control pitcher but I understand that the Reds would rather go with Chen, Heredia or Mercker who get paid way less than White.
And yet the reds were among the league leaders in SB. Casey is slow, but the rest ain't too bad. just their baserunning judgement is poor
Aaron Boone stole 32, Dunn 19. I just saw that the Reds finished third in the NL in stolen bases, which surprised me quite a bit. The team lacks a speedy leadoff hitter with a good on base percentage, though.

LONG BEACH - Cal State Long Beach has once again been named as one of the best deals in education, according to Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine.
The university was ranked No. 98 on the magazine's list of the top 100 best values in public colleges for 2011-12, education officials announced Tuesday. Last year, Cal State Long Beach was No. 79.
The ranking each year recognizes four-year public institutions that combine excellent education with affordability.
Cal State Long Beach was one of 11 universities in California to make the list and one of four CSU campuses. The three other CSU campuses are San Diego State University at 77, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo at 83 and Cal Poly Pomona at 91.
Coming in at No. 1 this year was the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, followed by the University of Florida, Gainesville, and the University of Virginia, Charlottesville.
The top institutions were selected from a pool of more than 500 colleges and universities. They were ranked according to academic quality, admission and retention rates, student-faculty ratios and graduation rates.
Cal State Long Beach President F. King Alexander said the university is pleased to once again make the list, but is struggling to keep student tuition low under an onslaught of state budget cuts.
"Access to higher education begins first and foremost with the ability to afford a college degree, and at Cal State Long Beach we continue to work to hold down costs to students wherever possible," he said in a statement.
While four CSU campuses still made the list this year, CSU tuitions continue to rise. The CSU system has raised tuition 23 percent in the past two years.
Last summer, CSU Trustees voted for an additional 9 percent tuition hike. Starting this fall, the average fulltime undergraduate student will pay around $7,000 a year, including campus fees.
The annual public school rankings will appear in Kiplinger's February 2012 issue and are available online at www.kiplinger.com/links/college.

In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death."--Anne Frank
Anne Frank is probably the best-known victim of the Holocaust. As a young child, her family fled Germany for the Netherlands to escape the escalating anti-Semitic policies. For a time, the family lived happily, but in May 1940, the Nazis invaded the Netherlands and began rounding up Jews for deportation. Fearing deportation, the family went into hiding with four others in a secret annex behind Otto Frank's company. For two years they stayed hidden. During this time, Anne penned her now famous diary. She gave an account of the troubles they faced, but also of her hopes, dreams, and insights. On August 4, 1944, the group was betrayed and the SS came for all eight people. First they were sent to Auschwitz, and then Anne and her sister were sent to Bergen-Belsen where they died of typhus only weeks before liberation. Only Anne's father Otto survived, and he published her diary for the world. Anne's incredible fame never erases the sadness of her story and the tragedy of her death.

In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can't build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery and death."--Anne Frank
I always loved her story. I really felt like I was there and when its over it feels like a real friend died not just another name.
We all know Anne's story, or should do?? It is essential in the study of The Holocaust of The Jews of Europe that the story is told, with truth and integrity. Anne's is a Living Testament to what is good, and what can still be good, within Humanity. Read all about the Survivors to see what a triumph Humanity still holds? Patrick Dempsey

Some of my happiest moments in the past few years have been arriving in a new town or a new country with a bicycle as part of my luggage.
Especially when I've been able to go to the arrivals lounge, find a quiet corner, assemble bike and attach panniers, and head off into the hinterland on my own steam.
None of that messing around with hotel transfers, alien public transport systems or possibly dubious taxi drivers.
On the flip side, some of my more challenging moments in the past few years have involved getting my bicycle onto a plane.
Cycling greybeards have told me of times when travel was exotic and baggage rules were rubbery, and transporting a bicycle by plane involved little more than letting some air out of the tyres and having the ground crew wheel it to the luggage bay of the plane waiting on the tarmac.
These days, however, things are more complicated, especially as airlines, trapped in a spiral of competitive discount pricing, need to find other ways to generate revenue – including air freight, and charging you for excess baggage.
I'm in no way an expert on air travel with a bicycle, but I've lugged a treadly along on more than a dozen trips in recent years, and here are a few things I've learned.
Pick your airline carefully
The basic rule for bicycles on most airlines is that you are free to bring them - if they fit within your baggage weight allowance.
So, study the allowances like a punter studying form, and remember that a cheaper flight means nothing when you get slugged for overweight baggage.
This is especially true of domestic budget carriers. My recent trip to Brisbane was a Virgin no-brainer, as the price for 23 kilograms of checked luggage was negligible.
Internationally, my favourite carrier in recent years has been Emirates, due to their 30kg allowance - crucial if you're lugging a touring bike with the whole catastrophe of panniers, tent, sleeping bag, sleep mat, pots, etc.
Happily, this generosity spilled over to Qantas when they formed an alliance. Long may it last!
Bag choices
The cheapest way to ship a bike is in a cardboard bike box - either a used one from a bike shop, or the larger ones sold for about $25 by airlines. They're a swine to carry, though, and are vulnerable to being squashed, contents included, by uncaring baggage handlers.
Regular travellers often prefer dedicated bike suitcases - but these can weigh close to 10kg.
One bag I've borrowed from a friend a few times is the Evoc, a semi-rigid item that strikes a good balance between weight and protection. Even better, the wheels at one end mean it is quite easy to walk the bag a short distance (I've managed to haul it a few kilometres but my shirt sleeves felt a bit shorter at the end).
Then there are soft fabric bags that offer great ease of use, but little protection. Our Kiwi neighbours at Ground Effect do a good line in these, and they're great for getting a bike on and off a train in Europe. But I've never had the courage to use one on a plane.
Tricks and strategies
Once you've chosen your carrier and your container, it's often still a challenge to make the weight.
The old trick of getting as much heavy stuff into one's hand luggage can be crucial - not to mention wearing several layers of clothes and stuffing your pockets with heavy items, such as chargers, cameras, spare shoes etc.
Just don't get too clever. I once had security take a very close look at my bike tools - they found the chain whip particularly fascinating - and for a moment I thought my bid to dodge a $20 excess baggage charge was going to cost me five times that in confiscated gadgets.
No such drama this time. I'm sending this from the departure lounge at Sydney, off for some Scandinavian cycle touring.
Here's hoping for a comfy flight, an ummangled bike on arrival and some kindness from the Norse weather gods. Either way, I'll post some pics on Twitter.
Have you ever flown with a bike? Got any tips, tales or tragedies?

The Crap We Missed – Monday 8.26.13
Welcome to a post-awards-show-weekend Monday edition of The Crap We Missed. Roughly translated, that means there's a ton of shit in here. I'm tempted to point you right to the end of this gallery for my favorite selections from the VMAs, starting here, followed by Tommy Lee DJaculating and all ending with news that Miss Butt Brazil is getting its own show. I can't wait for you to get there, but I don't want you to miss Flynn's 21st birthday party that's supposedly taking place in a nightclub, but we all know it's an IHOP, Gerard Depardieu still wondering why nobody took his cookie order yet, or John Malkovich trying to explain to this little girl why he's wearing her grandmother's pajamas.
Wait, Marc Anthony was at that Scientology Gala thing too?

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania men's basketball team made a gallant comeback, but after whittling away at a 15-point deficit and taking a two-point lead, the Quakers allowed Temple to score the game's final seven points and fell to the Owls, 78-73. The game was played in front of a sold-out Palestra and was the season opener for both squads.
Penn trailed by 15 on three occasions in the second half, the latest 67-52 with nine minutes left. However, after Miles Jackson-Cartwright's three-pointer was answered by a jumper from Temple's Dalton Pepper, the Quakers scored 10 straight points to make it a 69-65 contest. Jackson-Cartwright started the run with a jumper, and then Tony Hicks (28 points) found Darien Nelson-Henry on the break for a nice fast-break layin. Hicks had the next basket, a layin in traffic, and then Fran Dougherty hit a layup that sent the crowd into a frenzy.
Temple called timeout, and out of the break Anthony Lee shook free for a layup. However, Hicks drained a trey, and then after a Pepper miss Hicks again dialed long distance to tie the game at 71-71 with 1:52 left. Hicks then stole the ball and laid it in to give Penn its first lead since 9-8 early in the game. At that point, there was 1:37 left and Temple called timeout.
Lee again scored on a layup to tie the game, and then as the game went inside a minute Jackson-Cartwright tried to get into the lane. He lost the ball on the dribble, however, and it ended up in Lee's hands. He fed Pepper ahead of the pack and Pepper laid it in to make the score 75-73.
Hicks missed a three at the other end, and was forced to foul Will Cummings on the rebound. Cummings only hit one of the two shots, keeping it a one-possession game, but with seven seconds left Hicks again could not hit from range with two defenders on him. Pepper got the board, was fouled, and hit the free throws to set the final score.
Penn scored the game's first five points, on a Dougherty layup and an old-fashioned three-point play from Hicks. However, Temple scored 17 of the next 21 points to go up by eight. Penn got as close as three before the half, but it was 42-35 at the half.
In addition to Hicks' performance on Saturday night, which was one shy of his career high, Darien Nelson-Henry pulled off a double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Jackson-Cartwright, meanwhile, had 12 points, four rebounds and a team-high four assists. Hicks added three assists and three steals to his line.
Penn returns to action on Tuesday night at Monmouth, tipoff is slated for 7 p.m.
Game Notes: Sophomore Tony Hicks led all scorers with 28 points, one shy of his career high and the most by a Penn player in a season opener since the 2001-02 season (Ugonna Onyekwe 30 at Georgia Tech) … Hicks took 24 shots, tying the high by a Penn player in the Jerome Allen coaching era (Zack Rosen took 24 against Princeton on March 6, 2012), and made 12 which was one shy of a player high in the Allen era … Hicks scored eight straight points late in the game to push Penn from a 71-65 deficit to a 73-71 lead (the Quakers' first lead in the game since 9-8) … Hicks also matched a career best with three steals, added three assists, and knocked down a team-high three three-point baskets … Sophomore Darien Nelson-Henry scored a career-high 19 points and had 10 rebounds -- one shy of a career best -- for his third collegiate double-double … Thirteen of his points and seven of his boards came in the second half … Senior Miles Jackson-Cartwright had 12 points for his 53rd double-figure scoring game at Penn … Senior Fran Dougherty, playing his first game since February 2, matched a career high with two assists … Freshmen Tony Bagtas, Matt Howard and Dylan Jones saw their first collegiate action. Jones' first collegiate basket came on a dunk.

It's over.
So says Buffalo coach Rex Ryan, who conceded the AFC East to the undefeated New England Patriots this week even though the Bills — and everyone else in the division — still have a mathematical chance to catch the Super Bowl champions.
"They are going to win the division," he said this week as the Bills prepared for a rematch against the team that has bedeviled them for more than a decade.
"I don't see them losing four games. ... I hope I am wrong, but I don't see it happening."
The Patriots (9-0) have a four-game lead over Buffalo (5-4) with seven games left in the regular season.
The Bills could make a small dent in that on Monday night at Gillette Stadium, but Ryan knows that realistically everyone else in the division is playing for a wild-card berth.
Instead, the blustery Bills coach would be happy just to end New England's winning streak and spoil their chance at a second perfect regular season in nine years. Buffalo safety Corey Graham noted that it's not just them looking up at the Patriots in the standings.
"Everybody is chasing the Patriots," he said. "I mean, right now they are undefeated; they are playing great. They've pretty much been playing lights out the last 10 years. ... Obviously, you get tired of it. It is about time for us to go ahead and get some victories."

Hello friends,
I am making my website, so how i can start my web design ?
Hi kathiyawadi365.
You'll either need to hire someone or learn web design.
Start with HTML and CSS.

PETER Gordon sought reassurance from AFL bosses Mike Fitzpatrick and Andrew Demetriou before agreeing to return to the helm of the Western Bulldogs after 17 years.
The former Bulldogs president, who took over the club and saved it from merging with Fitzroy back in 1989, will replace David Smorgon at the club's annual general meeting in December after Smorgon stepped down at Monday night's board meeting.
Club director Susan Alberti, who is recovering from open-heart surgery, will be Gordon's vice-president.
The international legal figure told The Age last month that he would only return to the club if he felt that drastic circumstances demanded it.
While Smorgon has overseen close to two decades of relative stability, transformed facilities and on-field improvement, the club remains reliant on AFL support and has faced a number of challenges as it attempts to rebuild its football list.
Gordon, accompanied by Smorgon, held talks with Fitzpatrick, Demetriou and Gillon McLachlan at AFL headquarters on Monday and was reassured regarding the Bulldogs' ongoing viability.
Gordon, who was famously at odds with head office for much of his seven-year tenure, also sought assurances that no lingering animosity existed following his tumultuous reign, which ended in 1996.
Smorgon confirmed last night that he felt satisfied the club was in good hands after the Bulldogs' board on Monday night endorsed Gordon's official return to the club. ''I feel good,'' Smorgon told The Age.
''I'm feeling OK and I only would have stayed on for another year had our selection committee endorsed a candidate who needed to spend a year working with the board.
''Clearly that is not the case with Peter. He has been very supporting of me and very encouraging and the club is in good hands.''
Smorgon and Gordon have worked closely in recent years after the former president's estrangement from the club in the years that followed his departure. He has worked as a voluntary consultant to the Bulldogs on a number of issues and was heavily endorsed by the presidential sub-committee lead by Ian Beale.

A POLISHED and disciplined performance from the Bluebirds saw them win their opening game at Hardenhuish Park as visitors Arlesey were given few opportunities to shine.
The damage was done in the first half, with goals from Alex Ferguson and Alan Griffin, with the former also seeing an effort disallowed for a marginal offside.
In the second period Arlesey briefly threatened a comeback but a sublime free kick from Ballinger put paid to any thoughts of a visitor's fightback.
Throw in a superb Zak Evans strike that bounced away to safety after striking the underside of the crossbar and the Hardenhuish faithful were treated to a rousing afternoon.
For Chippenham, there were standout performances from Luke Ballinger and Jordan Roberts, while the return of Matt Coupe, who missed the defeat at Redditch, to the centre of defence again gave the backline a very solid look.
With Lee Phillips suffering a knee injury in training it was an opportune moment for Bluebirds' skipper Griffin to announce his fitness as he came in for his first league game of the season.
Chippenham took the lead on 28 minutes in a slick move started by Ballinger. Roberts then turned on the ball to lay it to Ferguson who also put in a smart turn before firing home his first goal in a Bluebird shirt.
In the final minute of the half, Roberts played a superb ball into the path of Griffin just inside the penalty area and the skipper rifled home a low shot across Nick Thompson.
After the break, Evans' 35-yard screamer hit the bar and Arlesey then began to ease themselves back into the match without ever really threatening the home goal.
Seven minutes from time Roberts was fouled on the edge of the area and Ballinger's low free went though the Arlesey defence and nestled in Thompson's right hand corner.
Chippenham: Kauppinen, Osman, Beeden, Coupe, Tindle, Harvey, Evans (McCready 59), Roberts, Griffin (Simpson 75), Ballinger, Ferguson (Monks 84).
Subs not used: Leigh, Wright.
Referee: Adrian Tranter.

HOUSTON - Local 2 Investigates poured over thousands of Harris County probation department emails, lab reports and letters following last month's explosive courtroom hearing that exposed a drug testing system rife with human error and shoddy record keeping.
"I think what's at stake is the integrity of our criminal justice system," said attorney Lisa Andrews, who helped expose multiple problems with how the department handles the testing of urine samples collected from people on probation.
Emails examined by Local 2 Investigates show a trail of questions and warnings signs that date back six years. One 2006 email from a probation employee regarding urine analysis statistics stated the system "has too many loose ends." That same year, another employee wrote about concerns with urine analysis reports printing out incorrectly. The employee wrote: "What should we do about those incorrect reports? Some of those were sent to judges."
While the department's system was updated and automated over the years, the concerns continued. In 2009, one department branch pleaded for extra help to handle the volume of probationers coming in for drug tests. "Mistakes of this magnitude cannot be tolerated as it could affect the client's freedom and possibly leave the department open to litigation, liability and credibility questions," an email read. That same year, probation department employees began questioning test results. The subject line of one 2009 email read, "UA Result Mix Up," and was questioning how two different probationers could get two different results for a single test.
Other concerns were raised in a 2010 email where a probation department employee wrote: "We have a client that has admitted to heroin use on a continuous basis even while being submitted to UA. However, the cups registered negative results on several occasions." It is not clear from the documents examined by Local 2 Investigates whether this employee ever received an answer.
That same year, another department employee expressed frustration that samples were getting "backed up" at the lab because she no longer had the ability to correct error reports. That employee wrote: "When there are hundreds of UAs sitting waiting to be tested the blame falls in my lap and I cannot do anything to fix it."
In 2010, department employees Donald Martin and Dr. James Goldman tried to implement a pilot program that would standardize policies and procedures for the collection and testing of urine samples "to reduce error rates such aswrongful switching of UA samples between one client and another (which happened in the not too distant past)." Last month, Martin testified that just as he was beginning to try to implement these changes, he was transferred to another division within the department.
In 2011, Goldman warned in one email that data entry mistakes made by the private lab conducting confirmatory drug tests could override test results kept in the department's database without the department being notified. Goldman wrote he noticed the county's vendor entered the wrong date for a test result, "what we need is an in-house system that will flag us when this type of error occurs."
A response to Goldman's email read, "If vendor fix (sic) the problem on the 'system', not just data then it shouldn't happen again. There is no need to add any flag on our side. Adding more code in system sometime (sic) will cause more trouble."
Goldman and Martin's concern about the department's system not set up to catch data entry mistakes became a central point in last month's court hearing before Judge Denise Collins. Emails and testimony revealed that data entry mistakes caused numerous drug test results to be linked to the wrong person.
In one case, Richard Youst testified a "false positive" drug test helped lead to his probation being revoked. Youst spent 10 days in county jail.
"When I got locked up, I lost my license, I lost my job, I lost everything," said Youst during an interview last month.
Youst, a first time driving while intoxicated offender with no history of drug use, said he became frustrated when his probation officer did not believe his claim the drug test was wrong. In a probation report for Youst an officer wrote, "Client has a bad attitude."
"They marginalized those people, they moved them to different departments," said Andrews, referring to how she believed the department handled concerns raised by Martin and Goldman.
Following the three-day hearing, the department's director, Paul Becker, resigned as did two of his top lieutenants. The Harris County District Attorney's Office issued a moratorium on using test results from the department as evidence "until we are satisfied that proper procedures and protocols are in place."
Judge Belinda Hill, the administrative judge for all Harris County criminal courts, told Local 2 Investigates that she is "confident" no judges will use the department's drug test results as the sole deciding factor in a person's case until these issues are corrected. Hill added this limbo period brings up a "public safety concern." Hill said some probationers and those on bond continuing to use drugs and who should face consequences may get a free pass until the credibility of the department's test results are restored.
Local 2 Investigates asked the department what steps are currently being taken to correct the problems exposed during last month's hearing and how long those corrections may take to implement. Local 2 received a written statement reading, "Please be advised that (Harris County Community Supervision and Corrections Department) is not at liberty to grant interviews or otherwise comment on any matters related to the HCCSCD or One Source Toxicology Laboratory, Inc.'s urinalysis systems."
One Source is the private lab that has performed confirmatory drug tests for the department intermittently since 2002. One Source has been the department's vendor since 2011. In a bluntly-worded letter to the District Attorney's Office dated Sept. 7, One Source Director Steve Harris warned data entry mistakes were only a small portion of the problems facing the department moving forward.
"The county has been using a poor chain of custody for years," Harris' letter warns.
When a person on probation is required to give a urine sample for drug testing, something called a chain of custody is created. This process helps ensure a sample is not contaminated or tampered with and that test results are linked to the right person. In Harris County, those samples are collected at different probation department offices. Department employees collecting those samples will conduct a presumptive test to determine if any drugs are in a person's urine. If that preliminary test is considered positive, then the sample is supposed to be sealed and sent to One Source to perform a confirmatory test before the results are used as evidence against a person.
Harris' letter argues these initial tests should not be handled by department employees and that the current system used by the county is open to interpretation and potential bias.
"A county employee, judge or attorney should not be making decisions concerning the interpretation of drug test results," the letter reads.
Harris suggests the department either send all probationers to a private scientific lab for collection and testing or at least stop allowing department employees to perform initial tests and then deciding which samples get sent to a lab for confirmation. Harris also said the department needs to create individual chain of custody forms for each sample instead of a creating a single batch form for numerous samples sent to the lab at the end of each day.
In a bluntly-worded section of the letter, Harris writes, "It is time for the county to conform to standard forensic procedures that have been used by other counties and employers for years. It is the only way to restore faith in the system."
This portion of the letter echoes Martin's testimony during last month's hearing when he described the department's chain of custody having "more holes in it than Swiss cheese."
An interim director for the department is expected to be chosen in the coming weeks.

Eric Rhone didn't start out to be in the 'funny' business. Growing up in Normandy and Pine Lawn as the son of a Bi-State bus driver and city school district employee, he probably did not see himself running an entertainment company, making multi-million-dollar decisions and living in a palatial home in Frontenac.
His unlikely path to success is something that amazes Rhone himself. "Isn't that something?" he says with a genuine smile as we sit at a grand table in his home's dining room. "That's what makes this country great, because only in America could a guy from Normandy High with humble beginnings—like most folks—make it. But if you work hard and get an education, the world can open up for you."
Rhone is wearing a designer suit for our visit, but admits that it's only because he knew he'd be posing for a photograph—he'd rather be in jeans and a sweater. The photo shoot took place just moments ago in the study, where there's incredibly fine woodwork and 16-foot ceilings. Atop the fireplace, Rhone proudly points to the framed pictures sitting on the mantel: On one side, there's a shot of him with President Obama; the other side has a photo of him with former President George W. Bush. He notes the display is symbolic of his views. "We've gone to extreme positions on both sides and what we've lost is the common ground—the gray area where I think we need to be."
His opinions count: Rhone is on the board of a number of nonprofits and civic organizations, including the St. Louis Regional Chamber and Growth Association and the Missouri Tourism Commission.
Are you laughing yet? Remember that Rhone is in the 'funny' business: It all started when he met Cedric Kyles, a Berkeley H.S. grad and comedian wanna-be, in their freshman year at Southeast Missouri State University in 1983. The two became best friends and roommates, and had dreams of being in show business. After graduation, they moved back to St. Louis, where Kyles went to work for State Farm and Rhone got a good IT job at Monsanto.
On the side, Rhone used his business sense as Kyle's manager and helped him book gigs at local comedy clubs. Rhone later landed his friend a spot on HBO's Comedy Def Jam, then in Superbowl ads for Bud Light.
Today, we know Kyles as 'Cedric the Entertainer.' Rhone, whose enterprises include Visions Management Group and Bird and a Bear Entertainment, is still managing things: The duo is shooting the second season of The Soul Man on TV Land, starring Cedric, with Rhone as executive producer. They'll take another big step this fall when Cedric becomes the new host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?, replacing Meredith Vieira.
"My job is to quarterback and look at his career in its entirety," states Rhone about his friend. "Ced is a very highly motivated individual; but in this business, it takes someone to look at the big picture and to really understand how to build your brand. Cedric's brand is like St. Louis: middle-America, great values, great family and strong community. When he's on TV, people see him and say, I like this guy. I know him, he reminds me of my school teacher or my uncle—just a normal guy."
Rhone's wife, Angela, comes into the room; and of course, we recount our North County roots. "Paul went to McCluer," Rhone announced, and his wife's face lit up. "I went to Aquinas," she proudly said. (We were rivals in soccer once upon a time.) Then the conversation turns to the kids: Their boys are 6, 8 and 19. Rhone says success really hits him when he thinks about them. "When I see how they get to grow up versus how I grew up," he muses. "They have all this technology and they talk to their friends about going skiing on spring break—what?!" He adopts a back-in-the-day tone. "We would just get a trash bag and go slide down a hill, and make our own ski slope. In our generation, we had to make things happen. But the benefit for kids today is that they are totally exposed to so many things."
The fact that many other young people—especially African-American males—don't succeed isn't lost on Rhone, either. "We try to be positive role models; but at the same time, we don't come off as stuffy. We're normal guys. Hey, I'm just like you. I could have made bad choices, but I made choices that were good. There we knucklehead guys running around and I decided I wasn't going to run with that crowd—and that's what it comes down to: making good choices."
The phone begins to ring. It's time for an important conference call from one of his boards. Soon, he'll be back to business in L.A., where he owns a second home in North Hollywood.
It seems to me that it's a bit funny—and somewhat ironic—how Eric Rhone's success is certainly nothing to laugh at.

Pupils got into the spirit of World Book Day by bringing their favourite characters to life in the classroom.
Children at Northside Primary School, in Albert Street, North Finchley, went through the looking glass as they celebrated the joys of reading on Friday.
The school assembly was brimming with Robin Hoods and Cinderellas - but a Peter Pan and a Mad Hatter were judged the overall winners of the fancy dress competition.
Years 3, 4 and 5 also got an insight into the world of journalism when Times Series senior reporter Anna Slater gave a talk.
She spoke to around twenty children from each class about her career and how to write a story, as part of the school's literacy week event.
Pupils discovered how varied journalism is, how reporters find news, and the places they go to carry out interviews.
The children's eyes widened in a question and answer session when Anna told them the most famous person she had met on the job was the Queen.
They were also astounded by the intricacies of shorthand, and Year 5 pupils were impressed when Anna wrote their names on the board using the special alphabet in less than three seconds.
Billy, who had dressed up as a witch, said: "Shorthand was really cool - it looks confusing but it is amazing too. It was very impressive and I liked seeing it a lot."
Year 5 pupil Isobel said: "It was very interesting learning about what it is like to be a journalist and the different things you have to do each day."

Padres Foundation announces "Wins for San Diego"
SAN DIEGO - The San Diego Padres and the Padres Foundation today launched the "Wins for San Diego" community giving initiative. The "Wins for San Diego" program benefits local charitable organizations whose missions support the Foundation's "Live, Learn, Play and Serve" pillars.
The "Wins for San Diego" initiative was inspired by Alfredo Harp Helú, a partner in the club's ownership group. Mr. Harp, along with his Foundation, pledges $2,000 per win during the 2013 season to the Padres Foundation's community efforts. This pledge was made to further enhance the Club's charitable support of the San Diego community.
Mr. Harp formed the Alfredo Harp Helú Foundation, which has provided more than $500 million in support of education, culture, health, the environment and sports projects. Since its formation, the Harp family has personally donated to the Foundation more than $800 million which represent the value of the organization, its assets and projects.
The Padres Foundation is the primary source of funding for the club's outreach initiatives in the areas of children's health, education, fitness and youth baseball/softball.

HOUSTON - Firefighters battled a house fire in southwest Houston that, investigators said, started in the home's kitchen.
Houston firefighters were called out to the blaze on Carvel Lane near Leawood Boulevard about 11:45 p.m. on Wednesday. When they arrived, they found flames and heavy smoke pouring from a one-story home.
Firefighters said they made a fast attack and got the fire under control.
According to HFD, the fire started in the kitchen, burned through most of the room and burned through the roof at the back of the house.
A family was home at the time of the fire, but everyone managed to get out safely. The homeowner said they had food on the stove when the fire broke out, but the fire chief said the fire originated further above the stove.
Arson units are still investigating the cause.

text: Farmers "Think Outside the Farm" at Top Producer Seminar March 8, 2013 08:30 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Farm Journal Editors Email More than 850 of the nation's top producers were challenged to shake off preconceived notions and brainstorm what the future of agriculture could hold at the 2013 Top Producer Seminar in late January. This year's seminar theme, "Think Outside the Farm," attracted producers from 29 states and featured more than 40 educational sessions to help producers hone their money, marketing and management skills and deal with today's volatile farm economy. "Coming off a terrible drought year, producers need to be thinking outside their normal mentality to manage risk and improve their operations," says Top Producer Editor Jeanne Bernick. "With the cream of the crop in agriculture attending our event, we worked hard to provide high-level information and take-home value." Hot topics included market outlooks, business pointers, policy updates, drought implications and how to communicate with multiple generations. Keynote addresses were given by Steven Levitt, University of Chicago economist and author of "Freakonomics" and "SuperFreakonomics," and Larry Brudnicki, captain of the Coast Guard ship that performed dramatic rescues during the storm that became known as The Perfect Storm and inspired the book and movie. Brent Gloy, ag economist and director of Purdue's Center for Commercial Agriculture, provided an outlook on farmland values. He urged farmers to avoid buying farmland on credit, since that is what led to the farmland bust of the 1980s. He also advised against buying farmland "just because everyone else is doing it." That's the psychology that led to the housing busts. In addition to Top Producer Seminar, the fifth annual Tomorrow's Top Producer program hosted 138 of the nation's brightest young producers. The program is designed to introduce farmers under the age of 35 to the business of farming. This year, Tomorrow's Top Producer hosted a tour for 30 young farmers to the Chicago Board of Trade. Attendees learned more about marketing basics, how to use smartphones on their farms, as well as life lessons from successful producers. The 2014 Tomorrow's Top Producer program and Top Producer Seminar will be held Jan. 28-31. Award-Winning Farmers Luke Brubaker, of Mt. Joy, Pa., was named the 2013 Top Producer of the Year. Brubaker, third from left, operates a 950-cow dairy, raises broilers and farms more than 1,000 acres with his wife, Barb, and sons, Tony and Mike. His prize package includes the use of a new Challenger tractor for 200 hours or six months and trips to the Top Producer Seminar and the Cereals Show in the United Kingdom. Brubaker is pictured with, from left, Challenger's Greg Kirksey and Top Producer's Steve Custer and Jeanne Bernick. Joanna Carraway, center, received the 2013 Tomorrow's Top Producer Horizon Award, an honor that recognizes an outstanding producer under the age of 35. Carraway is responsible for record keeping, financial goals and employee relations for her multi-generation crop operation in Murray, Ky. As the Horizon Award winner, Carraway receives trips to the Tomorrow's Top Producer conference and the Cereals Show in the United Kingdom.

Tuy Sereivathana, Conservationist
Photograph by Tom Dusenbery
Deep in the Cambodian rain forest, Tuy Sereivathana (known as Vathana) works to save endangered Asian elephants, but his project is symbolic of a larger transition Cambodia struggles to navigate as a nation. After decades of extreme violence under Pol Pot's brutal Khmer Rouge regime, Cambodia now faces the challenges of poverty, dramatic population growth, unregulated development, and environmental destruction. Vathana, Country Manager in Cambodia for Fauna & Flora International, is dedicated to finding answers that will help mitigate some of these problems.
After the country's devastating period of political turmoil and conflict, masses of people returned and relocated throughout Cambodia, often creating communities, roads, and farmland that encroached on elephant habitat. "Overnight, a traditional elephant migration route would become a rice farm," Vathana describes. With rain forests shrinking, hungry elephants foraged farmland, destroying crops. Desperately poor farmers fought back, killing elephants to protect their land and livelihood.
As a result, Cambodia's elephant populations, which numbered around 2,000 in 1995, have dwindled to fewer than 500 today. Years of deprivation had broken a centuries-old bond between Cambodia's people and nature. Elephants in particular had been an integral part of the nation's religious and cultural traditions, a prime example being the world-renowned Angkor Wat temple, built with the help of elephants that carried stones, hoisted pulleys, and are now depicted in honor on the walls of the magnificent structure.
While an emerging conservation movement might rekindle the connection between the public and the environment, initial efforts created more conflict than cooperation. "Local people only associated wildlife protection with law enforcement," Vathana explains. "When farmers were arrested for clearing the forest, they could no longer feed their families. Conservationists did not pay enough attention to human needs." Tensions were running high by 2003, when Vathana entered the scene as manager of the Human-Elephant Conflict Team for the Cambodian Elephant Conservation Group. "People were not well educated about conservation," Vathana recalls. "They thought the elephants belonged to my project so they threw all their anger at me. It was difficult to build trust and convince them to join my efforts. But day by day we proved that we were concerned not only with elephants, but also with human beings."
One enormous demonstration of Vathana's and his team's commitment to remote communities bordering elephant habitat was their role in the creation of schools. "The government had still not established schools in these areas," Vathana remembers, "and families were very concerned that their children could not read or write." Vathana helped set up schools and attract teachers and made wildlife conservation part of the curriculum. He and his team also introduced improved farming techniques, tools, and information on how to grow crops more efficiently and successfully without expanding into elephant habitat.
After gaining local trust, Vathana launched a series of low-cost, highly ingenious strategies for keeping crops—and elephants—safe. He and his team worked with villagers to grow crops that can be harvested before elephants know they are ripe, spread chili peppers on fences around fields, use fireworks and foghorns to scare raiding elephants away, build fences that give elephants a mild electric shock, and organize groups to stand guard in watchtowers overnight. Today, farmers who once hunted elephants now work for their preservation.
What turned out to be even more difficult than building his personal relationship with local people was convincing them to build relationships with each other. "After the civil war," Vathana reports, "our society was broken. People didn't care about helping each other; they were very isolated and totally focused on their own individual survival. They tried to protect crops family by family. I understood this and worked to establish a culture that emphasized community. We showed them that by joining together they would benefit together. Step by step they realized the advantages of working as a team."
The success of Vathana's project is unprecedented. Since 2005, not a single wild elephant has been killed in Cambodia due to human conflict. More than 30,000 local people feel the economic, educational, and social benefits of his efforts, and his community-based model is expanding to other countries in the region.
Despite significant gains, Vathana insists that many challenges lie ahead. "Cambodia's conservation community must do a better job of working as a unified force toward our common goals. I want to see government, developers, and conservation groups sit down, listen to each other, and find ways to move forward together. Poverty must be addressed, but unbridled development will only bring short-term relief. We must never lose sight of the long-term consequences each decision will have on our wildlife, our people, and our future."

Children's Art & Writing CollectionFriday, February 11th, 2011
Prospect Archive of Children's Work
The Prospect Archive of Children's Work collection offers a longitudinal look at the art and writing of nine children, as well as teacher records and information on the unique Prospect School and Center.
About Prospect
The Prospect School (1965-1991), deeply influenced by the philosophy of John Dewey, and in particular his commitment to the agency for the learner and his conviction that the desire for learning is inherent in every person, enrolled children from all walks of life, from age 4 through 14, with tuition waived or adjusted according to need.
The Prospect Center (1979-2010), under the leadership of co-founder Patricia Carini, developed a disciplined, collaborative method for understanding children as thinkers and learners called the descriptive review of the child. The descriptive review is a mode of inquiry that draws on the rich, detailed knowledge teachers and parents have of children and on their ability to describe those children in full and balanced ways, so that they become visible as complex persons with particular strengths, interests, and capacities.

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) -- The University of Dayton is allowing six students to remain in university-owned house where the fire department says the first floor is sinking.
The Dayton Daily News (http://bit.ly/SxXcIR ) reports the city fire department had told the students they'd have to leave because of the issue with the floor. But a university building maintenance official overruled the fire department.
The students reported the issue to the fire department after an email from the university Tuesday alerting them to new occupancy limits for student neighborhoods.
UD took that step after 11 students were displaced from two university-owned houses after the floors "shifted a few inches" during large gatherings Friday night. Nobody was hurt.
Students will receive the occupancy limits for their homes based on recommendations from a structural engineer.

Philosophy The Microdelivery In-Home Vitamin C Peptide Peel
Philosophy The Microdelivery In-Home Vitamin C Peptide Peel Reviews
Microdelivery peelThis actually makes your face really radianbt and glowing. It sloughs off the dead skin, and leaves your skin looking transulcent. It is pricey, but cheaper than going to a dermatologist. — 5 years, 10 months agoCaroleVonAllten | 1401 reviews
This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 12 people said helpful
GoodThis product won't give you salon/spa/professional results after the first use. Over time your skin will improve. This is a great cost-alternative for someone who can't afford frequent microderms, but needs to do something to keep their skin in shape. Like me! I use it once a week, and I've been using this for some time and my skin does feel firmer and smoother overall. — 6 years, 5 months agovolta | 566 reviews

Fun to Use and Effective!I am generally skeptical of Philosophy skincare products because I have not had much luck with others that I have tried. I got a sample of this two step microdelivery system and was eager to try it because I had read so many great reviews. I was very pleasantly surprised when I used this! Even though the two steps might seem cumbersome, this is so easy and quick to do. It's even fun! I applie...read mored the vitamin c crystals and then when I applied the activating gel on top, it instantly warmed on contact. It felt amazing. It didn't burn or tingle at all, just warmed and made you feel like the activator was actually activating something. The whole process took well under ten minutes and the "mask" that formed was even easy to wash off. I love that there are both chemical and (small) physical exfoliators in this duo because all your bases are covered. This has vitamin c and lactic acid in so you get a gentle exfoliating and brightening affect. When I washed this off, my face felt great. Not red, sensitive or overly dry at all. The next morning I thought my skin looked great. Keeping the two products separate helps ensure that the active ingredients in each stay effective. I look forward to buying the full size kit so I can reap the benefits of this beautiful product more often. — 4 years, 9 months agoHeathRene | 285 reviews

EMILY Dixon took her final bow while Rory Howorth offered a glimpse of the future at the Wiltshire Schools' Track & Field Championships at the weekend, writes Kevin Fahey.
Eighteen-year-old St Augustine's College pupil Dixon won the senior girls' 100m hurdles in a new championship record time of 14.6secs, bettering her own record of 15.1secs set last year and added the high jump title with 1.61m.
"It was my last county schools' championships so it was a bit sad really," said Dixon.
"I have been doing the schools' championships all my life and this was probably my sixth or seventh one but it is time to move on."
Dixon has been offered a scholarship studying fine art at Elon University in North Carolina, giving her the chance to fulfil her athletics potential as well as pursuing her academic career.
Her final appearance for Wiltshire will be at next month's English Schools' Track & Field Championships.
"I was fourth in the 100m hurdles last year so it would be great to win a medal and go out with a big bang," added Dixon.
Hilperton's Howorth, also at St Augustine's pupil, must wait another year before he is even eligible to compete in the nationals.
The 11-year-old is among the best in the country over 800m and set a new county record at Salisbury with victory in 2:12.3secs, breaking the record held by his brother Robert by a massive six seconds.
Howorth also won the high jump with a personal best 1.48m, adding three centimetres to the mark he achieved when winning the Wiltshire Clubs' title last month.
"I am equally pleased with both wins but especially with a new PB in the high jump,'' he said.
"Unfortunately I cannot go any further in the schools' competitions as I am still in Year Seven, but next year I will be able to compete in the junior boys' age group.''
Older twin brothers John and Robert came agonisingly close to English Schools' qualifying standards in their events.
John won the junior boys' 1500m with a time of 4:23, a personal best of three seconds, and just one second outside the qualifying mark.
Robert was runner-up to Swindon's Harry Kearns in a close 800m, again recording a best of 2:06.5, half a second outside the English Schools' standard.
Zoe Mattacks, of John of Gaunt School, struck gold in both the inter girls' 100m (a season's best of 12.7secs) and the 80m hurdles in a personal best time of 12.5secs).
In the junior girls' 1500m, Caitlin Wosika, from John of Gaunt School, won in a time of 4:51 with Corsham School's Jade Littlechild second in 5:03.
Melksham Oak Community School's Will Stockley did the double in the inter boys' 1500m (4:17.5) and 1500 steeplechase (4:51.9), in which he was the sole competitor.
Hayden Bailey, who is at John of Gaunt, came third in the 800m in 2:10.9 and runner-up in the 3000m in a personal best time of 40.0secs.
St Augustine's pupil William Browne won both the minor boys' 100m and 200m with times of 12.7secs and 26.8secs respectively.
- MATRAVERS School's Will Kennedy won the 100 (11.32) and 200m (22.52) U18 titles at the Northern Ireland & Ulster Championships in Belfast, plus a bronze medal in the senior 200m at the weekend.

text: hpdvs2 1017 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 So recently, aattss suggested there should be a discussion on this. But in star craft, the races are mechanical Terran, magic Protoss and flesh and blood Zerg. Warcraft was Men and Orcs. So my question is what races and characteristics would be good in an RTS. Elves Vs Dwarves Vs Humans? No humans at all, dragons vs unicorns. Flamingo's vs hippos? (a student of mine once suggested that @ hcc). But please don't limit it to the physical descriptions, but also the characteristics. Terrans had mechanical things, guns, tanks, metal buildings. The Protoss are spell casters, mystic swords, lightning, shields. the Zerg are biological, living tissue, genetic, claws, scales and acid. I'd like some fresh perspectives and ideas. Thanks. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People, not companies, are at the heart of the battle over the European Union's passport-free travel zone. France, Italy and Denmark are trying to crack down on the movement of migrants across their borders. The European Commission is concerned that the so-called Schengen system could be undermined. But business should be worried, too.
Think how many companies' strategies are now based on the principle of free movement of people and goods between the 25 members of the zone. If "temporary" border controls were reinstated, tourism would be the first to suffer. As Denis MacShane, former UK minister for Europe, tweeted on Friday:
Schengen rules allow for passport, custom checks on temporary basis. Will Germans put up with 10km queues to go into Italy, France 4 hols?

I spent a long time researching the various double buggie options but I'm really disappointed with the functionality of the double kit. The seat at the back is positioned in such close proximity to the front seat that it's unusable in the upright position. My 13month old daughter is therefore stuck in the reclined position so she can see out but she really dislikes it. The back seat is also not suitable for an older child (3yo) which I've noticed the older models allow. This is really handy when your older child gets tired of scooting for example and the younger child is in the front. The new braking system is neither here nor there. I find it unrealistic to walk along clutching the break in the whole time anyway. Overall, I'm afraid it's very disappointing.

I bought the second seat attachment for my navigator. The seat is as expected and attaches easily. A mesh attachment that attaches to the seat in front was also provided that will benefit to protect baby from uv exposure but also provide a darker space for him to sleep.
Dispatch of my order happened within 2hrs of ordering-awesome! Meant I got my seat straight away. Very happy.

Before we look back at last night's mayhem, remember we will have a Live Chat right here at noon today. Should be some interesting discussion given what happened and how it happened last night. Be there. Or else.
1) I haven't had the opportunity to say this in a long time, but this game is an exception to even the general stupidity of the shootout? Yeah, the fans love it, right commissioner? Ask all those Boston fans if they loved it as they were filing out with what would have been an all-timer of a tie instead leaving with a loss; and the Rangers get a win in a game they coughed up like a hairball. All because of a contest that has nothing to do with hockey, after two teams played 65 minutes of high-stakes hockey. And so many Bettman Bonus Points for losing are being handed out this year, a 48-game season that's one-quarter done, those stupid Losers' Points are going to decide playoff berths. What a freakin' joke.
2) I don't know if I should go with the idea that the Rangers won their third in a row, beating one of the real Beasts of the East (for a second time), and on how many guys did so many good things … or if I should go with the crash at the end.
3) Well, last things first (I mean, last in terms of the actual hockey game; I'm not going to talk about the Breakaway Contest After The Hockey Game Ends — BCATHGE other than to say about the Rick Nash goal: Wow) … I thought for about six or seven of the last 12 minutes the Rangers were defending the lead in textbook fashion.Then they didn't. They got a little too happy with the dump-it-out idea too early, IMO.
4) Having said that, the third Boston goal was a really lucky carom off Ryan Callahan's skate that went directly to the only guy who could have scored right there, and if that doesn't happen, the Rangers win 3-2 in regulation and we're all talking about the parade route today.
5) Rick Nash. The guy did some amazing things with the puck in the first 65 minutes, too. That first goal he set up, by Carl Hagelin, was nuts, and even though he had an empty half a net, Hagelin put it up top with some mustard on it just in case Tuukka Rask got across somehow. Hagelin's had a bunch of really good games in a row now, and looks like he could make a career out of being Nash's sidekick. And Derek Stepan is just fine there between them, too. That, unfortunately for the Rangers in some ways, is now the No. 1 line.
6) Stepan's goal was exactly why the Rangers' coaches want him to shoot the puck more, and why they think he can be a top-two center. And why the Rangers won't trade him for Dustin Byfuglien, as some suggested yesterday.
7) Oh, back to Nash. He is ridiculous with the puck and he's been very good without it. He hit a post, probably could have scored a couple. I loved the fact that he went back at Milan Lucic after that high hit. But I didn't love the fact that he took a hooking penalty there, which cost the Rangers a goal. And he also had a bad turnover later. And, still, he was one of the best players in the game. Lots of people found it ironic that he scored that beauty of a goal just about the time Howser Howson got fired in Columbus … about a year too late. If Howson had to trade Nash, he should have done it at the deadline when he could have had an extra first-rounder in June, and the Rangers could have had Nash for the playoffs. And the question remains, how was Howson allowed to trade Nash on his way out the door himself?
8) I thought it was a very tough first period for J.T. Miller. The teenager actually had a tough night in a tough place against a tough team. I thought he got better later in the game, though. Not sure which way he's going to go here.
9) Henrik Lundqvist protected the lead during a scrambly start to the second period that included another woeful too-many-men penalty, and made two (at least) big saves (and got help from a good defensive play by Nash) before Stepan made it 2-0. Then he made the enormous short-handed save on Patrice Bergeron after Dan Girardi's cough-up at the PP point.
10) In general, despite a couple of hiccups, it was another monstrous game by Ryan McMonster and Block Ness Monster Girardi.
11) That said, I thought Marc Staal was too aggressive on the goal immediately at the end of the Boston power play, leaving — once again — two Bruins open behind him, and he went to his knees instead of taking his man on the second goal. Too bad, because he had a pretty good game otherwise, too.
12) The Rangers had an entire intermission to draw up a 5-on-3 and that's what they came up with? And on the 5-on-4, I really think Richards is bad at the point. Then when he has to play defense, it's frightening. He almost got Marian Gaborik killed by Lucic on the 5-on-4 after the 5-on-3 ended. Richards just hasn't been close to himself yet this season, especially on the point, IMO.
13) Fitting that the winner came off the stick of Ryan Callahan, isn't it always? The problem of playing Callahan with the kids, Miller and Chris Kreider, is when the coach takes the kids out of the rotation in the third period, he risks losing Callahan. And now John Tortorella is going to have to make some decisions about Miller and Kreider. I think they've added enough to certainly get more time in the lineup, and what makes me say that is I just remember how sloth-like the four lines looked before those two got uniforms. I think they need to stay in. And while Arron Asham is growing on me as a player, I think Brian Boyle is better than four players who were in the lineup in Boston, and I do NOT mean Miller and Kreider.
14) That's a damn good team up there in Boston. The Rangers are done with them. Two wins (though Boston got a Bettman Bonus Point in each).
15) Unrelated, can anybody answer this? When there's a staged fight, the linesmen back away and let them fight on and on and on and on. Yet when there's a legit hockey fight, like Kris Versteeg going after Alex Ovechkin for an earlier cheapshot, the linesmen don't allow Ovechkin and Versteeg to fight at all? Even though they both wanted to go. WTB?
16) Too many men. Sick of that yet? How about failed 5-on-3?
My Three Rangers Stars:
1. Rick Nash.
2. Carl Hagelin.
3. Derek Stepan.
TSwift's Three Rangers Stars:
1. Henrik Lundqvist – Great in the 1st and probably his best period of the season in the 2nd. 2/3 goals in the 3rd he didn't have a chance.
2. Rick Nash – The pass on the first goal, and the move in the shootout should be enough, but he was also pretty good in his own end.
3. Derek Stepan – Playing with Nash's talent and Hagelin's speed has been great for him and now he's finishing his chances.
Your poll votes for Three Rangers Stars:
1. Rick Nash (23.64 %).
2. Henrik Lundqvist (20.45 %).
3. Ryan Callahan (15.45 %).

Amputation is the removal of a body part. This can be done by a
doctor in a hospital setting, such as when a foot must be
amputated because of
diabetes complications. But amputation may also
happen during an accident.
An amputation may be complete (the body
part is completely removed or cut off) or partial (much of the body part is cut
off, but it remains attached to the rest of the body).
In some
cases amputated parts can be successfully reattached. The success of the
reattachment depends on:
