Great purchase
Written By: Nora, Clarksville, TN 7/10/2017
When I ordered, was leary. But once I put it on and fell asleep, didn't bother me one bit! Like much better than my previous one, like the fact that it's being held in place by my ears and not over my head! Very comfortable and highly recommend to others considering this nose pillow!
Best mask ever!
Written By: Annette, North Carolina 5/21/2017
I have been on CPAP for about 15 years and this is the best mask I've ever had! In the early years, I couldn't find a mask that was comfortable so I was often noncompliant with therapy. Over the years, I've tried them all--full-face, nasal, oral, hybrid, etc. But this one is like wearing nothing at all. It also doesn't get stuck in my thick, curly hair. I highly recommend!! The only drawback I've had is that is does leave strap marks on my face, but not enough of a deal breaker to me to offset its comfort.
Do not like

Do not like at all I like the golife better. The Bella hurt my nose and dried out.
Bella bella
Written By: Wicked, Ct 7/21/2015
Swift Bella is the 7th mask I have tried and I suspect the last. It is the least intrusive and by far the easiest to get on and keep on. Now if they could figure out an easier connection to the hose I would be a truly happy camper....tough on arthritic hands.
Bella Mask
Written By: strawberry, Ottawa 5/14/2015
I just received my Bella swift mask. It is great. I was concerned about the previous reviews regarding the plastic loops hurting the ears This is not the case at all. The plastic loops are very soft and flexible and adjustable. It is much more comfortable than the straps on the head. It doesn't leave lines on your hair. I have long hair and the regular Swift nasal pillow left lines on my hair. The service is great and fast. I highly recommend the mask
Finally sound restful sleep!

I wish this was available when I first started using a cpap in 1995. It is the best Nasal Pillow I have ever used and certainly much better than a nasal mask. This nasal pillow have given total rest without waking up to adjust it. Give yourself a treat and try it out for yourself.
Great concept!
Written By: Pam, Minnesota 5/9/2014
It's wonderful not having a full headgear. No more straps slipping down my head in the middle of the night. It still takes some time to get used to though. My ears are toughening up. I've been using it a week and it's getting better. Easy to put on and take off. Very glad I switched!
Best CPAP mask ever
Written By: D. Taylor, Beautiful Whidbey Island 4/8/2014
I absolutely love this mask. Many reviewers said the straps hurt their ears - not mine and if they do, the head strap that comes with it is better than any other mask I've used. I use the ear straps, no leakage. I love that the air expels out the front instead of the top. On other masks the air went straight up and always hit my nose or forehead. I never feel this air. It is light. Sometimes when I wake up I have to touch it to make sure I have it on.

Wish I had started with the nasal pillow. The ear loops hurt my ears, but the head gear works just fine. Much more comfortable than a nasal mask.
Love The Aloha and the Swift FX Bella
Written By: Fred, Ft. Myers 12/10/2013
I love the Aloha. I'm on my second and I just went back to it from the last new mask (Nuance Pro by Phillips) that had gel pillows. I need a pillow that's comfortable and doesn't go into the corner of my eyes wile I'm tossing and turning. The Aloha never leaks and seems to be self adjusting as I sleep. Sometimes I have it set with the prongs all the way in when I go to sleep and I wake up 8 or 9 hours later with the pillows still sealed and the prongs at halfway in. I do wish the prongs were beefed up a bit more because when I first bought the mask I was fearful of breaking the prongs, but I'm very rough with the mask and nothing is breakable.I also want to buy extra side padding with velcro because the velcro get's full of lint in the wash. I have to pull all the lint out when I get them out of the dryer. If you do put them in a dryer, remember to pin them together or you'll have a heck of a time trying to find them both.I give it 5 stars and then some. I give the Swift FX with Bella Loops 5 stars, too. I have to confess that they're my wife's Bella loops. So what. Both are great masks for anyone who wants to use a pillow mask and I've tried them all except the Breeze.

Eight shipments of "Australian" lavender bears, a sensation in China, have been destroyed by Chinese customs from April to July this year, the country's official newswire has reported.
The report said the Tianjin Inspection and Quarantine Bureau destroyed the bears sent from Australia as they believed they were infested with insects and could cause fungal infections and rashes.
"Bobbie" lavender bears from the Bridestowe Lavender Estate in Tasmania became a phenomenon in China after a number of the country's biggest stars, including actress Fan Bingbing, posted photos of themselves with them on social media sites.
This flooded the trading website Taobao – China's answer to eBay – with hundreds of thousands of fake bears, produced all over Asia.
The move to destroy the shipments comes after Chinese customs banned entry of the bears into China in April, saying they contained untreated seeds and did not pass bio-security standards.
The real bears are stuffed with the estate's lavender and can also be used as heat packs.
Robert Ravens, owner of the estate, said the destroyed bears were "certainly not" from Bridestowe and it had been at least nine months since he had sent a large batch of his bears to China.
He said the company had never been approached by Chinese customs, but it was not worried as most of its customers were from Australia.
"Our market's always been Australia," Mr Ravens said. "Hong Kong also has an insatiable demand, Singapore is strong and so is America."
He said the estate posted about five bears a week to private customers in China.
Mr Ravens said Bridestowe employed 30 people. It sells out of the bears on a weekly basis as bus-loads of tourists visit the estate.
"We are starting to stock up for the peak season in September and are finding that a bit of a struggle at the moment," Mr Ravens said.
He said the estate had a protocol to ensure bears were bio-secure and "Bobby" was now produced with tags attached to verify his authenticity.
"If they are fake bears they deserve to be destroyed, if they're poorly manufactured they deserve to be destroyed and if they are a biosecurity risk, they certainly must be destroyed." Mr Ravens said.
The farm sold 40,000 bears last year, which the owners say was not enough to keep up with demand.

Product Q&A
- Care and Maintenance
- Be sure to store tablemats flat. Do not fold or allow them to crease.
- Chilewich tablemats clean easily with soap and water. A damp cloth or a sponge is all that is necessary. We do not recommend dishwasher or washing machine use.
- Should a stubborn stain occur, woven vinyl is very durable and can withstand scrubbing with a bleach-based cleanser. This will remove the stain without altering the fabric.
- Permanent stains may result when certain food or liquids are left on the tablemat for long periods before cleaning. This is more likely to occur with our lighter-color textiles.
- Air dry. Do not iron.

text: moeen k 1432 Report post Posted June 5, 2014 its a important question to me. i think in many horror game we play them no to we want to be scared i think we play them because there are a lots of charades(if i used the right word) and complicated story but i think there is a problem. but i think in many of these kind of game happenings and characters are not convincing. for example we know resident evil series as best games but you think in re5 how a character like majini can be there? is that a zombie? how a zombie can hang that axe? and game never says it can be a biochemical new creature or in fear1 paxton in one of chapter stand againts one of glasses that you can see him through it and it scares you so much but after a little thinking you say how is he there or why is he there and its more like a puzzle that you try to find the reason but you never find a reason. or in cod: black ops mayson does many things but in his illusion he thinks that reznof makes them and you say is that possible? and i think you can find a lot of these examples for yourself. there is a question. game designer just writes a basic story and those characters are there maybe concept artist drew it well and it makes game more attracting or every part a game happenings should have a story behind it and it have to convince a player. maybe it depends on players age but all of games i exampled are for higher level of age groups. thank you for helping 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I was little I hated oatmeal. The gooey nondescript texture paired with the strange light brown color never appealed to me. While I wasn't chowing down on liquid oatmeal, I did love oatmeal raisin cookies. There were always plenty of oatmeal cookies left on any cookie tray because once one kid figured out they weren't chocolate chip suddenly they become undesirable number 1. Even better were Little Debbie Oatmeal Cookie Cream Pies! I had a very unhealthy addiction to lots of Little Debbie treats. Sophomore year of high school I ate chocolate covered donut holes every day as a snack! Gross.
While I've gotten my Little Debbie addiction under control, I still crave oatmeal cookies every once in a while. I'm not a big baker but still wanted to get the oatmeal cookie flavor so I thought why not make it in a shake! This shake gets the nutty oatmeal flavor from the flaxseeds, and it's sweetness from the raisins. Each sip brings me back to my childhood love without giving me the sugar rush.
- 1 cup almond milk, homemade
- 1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/2 cup unsweetened raisins
- 2 tbls flax seeds or meal
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 frozen banana, in chunks
- Mix all ingredients in blender until smooth.
- Top with extra shredded coconut, raisins and a dash of cinnamon.

Try It! 10-Minute Daily Makeup Routine
You get dressed for your regular work day, and you feel that you look great. Great hair, nails, outfit and shoes are on deck. But, there is something missing from that list: a little bit of makeup.
It's often overlooked and neglected; however, it will make your ensemble look much more polished. We're not advocating for a transformation, just a little sprucing. The new year should involve you dedicating more time and effort into your daily aesthetic! Just 10 minutes and a few products can work wonders for your daily wardrobe.
Where Do You Start?
It's good to start with three focuses to create a complete look: Lashes (mascara), Lips and a Lightweight Powder (LLLP). The items used for LLLP are very easy in application and don't require you to be a makeup expert. Once you incorporate a little LLLP into your daily routine, you may want to eventually branch out into more advanced techniques. But let's explore the basic building blocks of beauty for now.
Everyone isn't a makeup enthusiast. There's the makeup minimalist and then also the girl who purchases beauty products regularly but wishes that she had the know-how to do more with her daily look. Here are some recommendations for both types of women.

aleand hearty left this review about The Engine Inn
An inviting looking, stone built, roadside inn, three miles out of St Ives, on the B3311 to Penzance. Given its rural setting, it's not surprising to find out that the building was once a farmhouse and before that, a counting-house for a nearby tin mine. Internally, it has two rooms, a small, plain affair to the left and the more attractive main room, housing the bar. It features stone flooring, a low ceiling with exposed beams, olive green wainscoting lining the walls and a decent looking real fire for the colder months. Seating is a mix of traditional tables and chairs and the almost inevitable leather sofas. Overall, the feel is quite upmarket, borne out by the high end(ish) menu, which is priced accordingly. However, I was quite surprised to see a dartboard to the right of the bar, plus a pool table (admittedly pushed against the wall), which I suspect come more into their own in the tourist off-season.
At the bar, the Cornish 'big three' brewers were represented by Proper Job, Betty Stoggs and Doombar on hand pump. The Proper Job was in decent condition, if a tad cold and maybe a little steep at £3.30 a pint. However, service from the two young barmen was friendly and attentive. There was a good early evening atmosphere when we called, with a healthy mixture of diners and those calling for just a drink.
To the rear of the pub is a pleasant outdoor drinking area (complete with 'boules' pit), which offers fantastic views over the moors. Unfortunately, it was a little chilly on our visit, but I should imagine it's wonderful on a warm summer's evening.
The Engine also holds regular music nights and offers accommodation.
Worth a visit, if in the area.

UK Immigration Law
Have UK Immigration Law Questions? Get Answers Now.
Is your girlfriend eligible for a student visa and does she genuinely wish to be a student?
The danger is that if she applies for student visa and gets rejected and then applies for a visa straight away on the basis of your marriage then the UKBA may be suspicious of the marriage coming so soon after.
Hi Adrian,
She would need a sponsor in the form of an education provider offering a place to her for her studies. There are also tight criteria on the amount of funds she must have in her account to show that she can support herself when she is here.
I can refer you to the eligibility criteria if you wish, but if the ultimate aim is that she is to reside here permanently and you intend to marry then an application based on your marriage is more appropriate.
There are two ways of doing this:-
1. She makes an application for a fiance visa to the UK embassy in Albania. This will give here a visa to come to the UK for the purpose of getting married and would be valid for 6 months. Once married she would have to make a further application for a spouses visa (ie. for two years - after this period she could apply for indefinite leave to remain). Two applications, two application fees.
2, You go to Albania and marry there. She then applies for a spouses visa (ie. two year visa again) straightaway. One application, one application fee. The difficulty is that if the application is rejected by the UKBA and you are not successful on appeal then you remain married but in different countries.
The criteria for a fiance visa is almost identical as for a spouses visa, save for that with a spouses visa you must prove marriage (ie. by marriage certificate). You would have to show:-
You will need to apply for settlement (ie. fiance visa) by using VAF4 Settlement, available for download from UKBA's website. It would be best for either a solicitor in the UK to prepare it in consultation with both you and your fiance before submitting it. It would cost in the region of £750-1000+vat for a solicitor to prepare it for you. You could spend twice that (at least) to get a solicitor to act on your behalf in your appeal if the application is rejected because of evidential defects.
You can find immigration solicitors in your area by using the following:-
She will also have to pass the english language test to show that she has a basic command of english listening and spoken language. Everyday expressions and basic phrases and she will have to contact the Embassy before submitting to find out about approved test providers in Albania.
If this has been useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. It will be gratefully received and you will be free to ask follow up questions.Kind regards,Tom

Wrestling the Ghost of Jimmy Buffett at Preston Center's Flying Fish
This catfish's flying days are numbered. The shrimps' too.
Photos by Patrick Michels
No. Of course it's not time for sushi.
Rarely needing rhinestone dog collars or designer faucets, I don't make it to Preston Center all that often, which is the only reason I can offer as to why I'd never wandered into Flying Fish before. The've got their name on a movie marquee outside. Hard to miss.
Anyway, unless an H3 runs me down in the parking lot outside (nearly happened once already), it won't be my last time.
Even for a 'fish shack' style place, there's a real sandals-and-koozie, son-of-a-sailor vibe at Flying Fish. That guy in your family photo with the shin-high tube socks, khaki shorts and the "Co-Ed Naked Trucking" T-shirt? He eats here. Might be a part-owner.
They're gunning pretty hard for the 'fish shack' atmosphere, and even though they're a small chain (locally, they're also in Garland, Addison and Fort Worth) it comes across as genuine. The guys behind the counter are friendly, those are real fishing photos on the wall -- not prefab Applebee's flair -- and I'd endure at least two verses of "Margaritaville" for another basket of fried catfish and shrimp like the one they served up Monday night.
There's plenty on the menu -- even omelettes and oatmeal if you're early enough -- but I was there strictly for the basket of fried seafood. Unable to escape all the trappings of Highland Park dining, they do hand out the vibrating, light-up coasters to let you know your order is ready (what is this, Houston's?), but the wait wasn't long.
This note, photographed at great peril to my phone, hangs above the men's urinal next to more photos of people with fish. Click the photo to read it.

Glock 38 | G38
The GLOCK 38 is a compact sized .45 G.A.P. offering practical pistol power in a size conducive for concealed carry users who demand comfort and performance. Plainclothes officers, as well as military and civilian defenders, will appreciate the eight rounds of accuracy and power the .45 G.A.P. cartridge provides, especially in a model sized much like traditional caliber GLOCK compacts.
Personal Defense
- A compact frame allows for high performance and handling in stressful situations
- Faster target acquisition with less recoil than the 45 ACP: equals greater accuracy

Kiely Williams Thinks Blacking Out And Having Sex Is "Spectacular"
Kiely Williams — the Disney star who used to be in that beloved-by-tweens girl group, The Cheetah Girls — is a royal dumb-ass. The video for her new single, "Spectacular," is a tale of a drunken night out which culminates in having sex with a guy whose name she doesn't remember. (FYI, the video has a couple shots of some bare male booty midway through, so could be NSFW.) Basically, it's an epic date rape tale set to a groovy dance beat. Now, Williams claims the song and video are her way of bringing attention to a "serious women's health and safety issue." She says:
"Young women across the country get intoxicated and have unprotected sex. That's a fact. I recorded the song to bring attention to this frighteningly prevalent activity. It is absurd to infer or suggest that I am condoning this behavior."
Yeah, haters! That's why she called the song "Spectacular" and warbles about the sex being spectacular — so that girls, like the young fans of her previous "work," don't think that getting drunk and waking up the next morning not remembering if the guy they banged used a condom is, like, awesome. Wait. What does "spectacular" mean again? [The Improper]

HTC Imagio XV6975 ReviewHTC Imagio
One feature that sets HTC apart from other smartphones is its TouchFLO 3D user interface. We loved it the first time around with the Touch Diamond, but now it has undergone some slight upgrades, making it pretty similar to the ones found on the Touch Pro2 and Diamond2.
Home Screen shows a clock, date, current weather for your location, missed calls, tasks, and direct links to the call history and calendar. Pressing on the clock will open up the newly designed world clock and alarm page, though only 3 alarms can be set.
The TouchFLO 3D user interface of HTC Imagio XV6975 is pretty similar to the ones found on the Touch Pro2 and Diamond2
My Favorites allows you to select picture links to your most accessed contacts, to call and send messages or emails to.
Messaging shows all recent text, picture, and video messages that have been received. You can quickly reply and view messages sent by you.
Email shows your recently received email messages in the form of a letter, but only the top part of the text is visible. You can scroll up and down to select different emails, and click on them to view all of the text.
Calendar is one of the new tabs, as compared to the first Diamond. You can scroll up and down to select different months and click on the desired day to enter an appointment. The weather forecast is also shown for up to 5 days in advance.
Internet tab has a Bing search bar at the top, link to Opera Mobile browser and other stored favorite web sites.
Stocks are another new tab that allows you to enter in your stock watch list, which is updated by Yahoo Finance.
Photos and Videos allows you to browse through your album, and there are shortcuts to the camera and video recorder.
Music gives you access to all your saved albums and songs. The player is laid out nicely and you can listen to music in the background while performing other tasks.
Weather not only gives current conditions and forecasts for around the globe, but also works with the GPS to give the weather no matter where you happen to be.
Settings show most of the commonly used settings and customizations for the Imagio, such as sync data, sounds, wallpaper, communications, customize tabs, my contact card, mail setup, and location. There is an All Settings button on the bottom-left that opens up additional setting screens.
Pressing on the top-right corner shows the Task Manager, where you can easily change between running applications, or close ones you no longer need. To the left of it are the status icons, where pressing on them brings up the Notifications screen to view more detailed information, such as battery meter and network.
Selecting the Start icon on the top left of the screen, or pressing the Windows logo button on the bottom of the phone, opens the main Start menu where you can have up to 30 shortcuts for commonly used programs. There is also a link to All Applications, where you can scroll through a list of every application that is installed on the device.
If you decide to turn off the TouchFLO 3D skin, you are left with the Windows Mobile 6.5 user interface. It is updated and easier to use than the one of the aging 6.1 operating system and is laid out better for use with your finger, instead of having to use a stylus. You can scroll up and down the list of menu items, and then side to side to select items within it. For example, when music is highlighted, you can move side to side to select different songs. Going into the Start menu has a new layout and has changed slightly from the "honeycomb" design that we saw previewed earlier this year. It is easy to scroll through, and once again the icons are large enough that a stylus isn't required. Overall we like the changes that are implemented in Windows Mobile 6.5, as it is a small step in the right direction to version 7, but we still prefer using the TouchFLO 3D interface provided by HTC.

How can you give it a 9.5 if there is an issue with call quality? Bells and whistles are great, but these are phones nonetheless. That's at least a point or so in my book.
3. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
Under normal conditions the call quality was fine. The only issue was the faint background "hiss" that could be heard through the earpiece, which sounds like "white noise" (some phones have this while other don't), and if you turn the volume up all the way you'll hear some speaker distortion. But we found that having the earpiece volume set below medium is still plenty loud, and there is no distortion.

One could just as easily argue that this is a portable multi-media/computing/camera/etc. device that happens to make phone calls. If you are more worried about phone call quality, there are thousands of basic cell phones available. People who are looking to buy this type of device are clearly looking for more than just phone calls.

Can you please show examples of the MobileTV service on the Imagio? That is the feature everyone needs to see demonstrated and evaluated. You only showed VCast Video, which we have all seen before.
4. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
The Mobile TV service is shown at the top of Page 4, it is not VCast Video. The label will be changed. -Thank you.

Thanks for the great review. I've been waiting for this phone to come out for a while and was really looking forward to purchasing it. That was until the big press conference where Verizon and Google announced their two new Android phones. Anyone know how the HTC Imagio is going to compare to Verizon's HTC Hero?
9. j.as.on (Posts: 1; Member since: 07 Oct 2009)
You talk about the quality of the keyboard. Any chance we can get some video of it in action?
11. martycota (Posts: 28; Member since: 15 Jun 2009)
13.5 hours standby? How is that a good battery life? Considering my Touch Pro claims 350 standby hours and it barely makes it 2 or 3 days in good signal area, and you rate this as having a good battery life?
12. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
It should read "The 1500 mAh battery is rated to provide up to 5.3 hours of talk time or 13.5 days of standby time on a full charge." It will be corrected -Thank you.

Your review left out one very important feature; one that will make me send back my Touch Pro 2 (well within 30 days) to get it: The fact that it supports VCast w/Rhapsody. Gotta have my music .... and this will be the first WinMo device to support Rhapsody "subscription" service as well as downloaded music.
15. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
We have it listed on the top of page 4: "...media services like VCast Video, Music with Rhapsody, and Mobile TV" The upcoming Samsung Omnia II is also expected to have VCast Video and VCast Music with Rhapsody, but not Mobile TV. -Thank you.

Rechecked it....you're right. It's right there. My bad. Just wish Verizon had that feature in the TP2 as well.
23. WarBear (Posts: 1; Member since: 13 Oct 2009)
Just want to add a note since you have an interest in streaming media. I have had this phone since Oct 7th and instantly installed my Slingplayer Mobile w/ no monthly fee on the device using the 3g data package and NOT WiFi. Works outstanding! Full screen capable and even flips the screen to the side. Quite a nice picture, some blocks, and some frame rate issues....but overall extremely watchable quality. Watched my dolphins beat the jets last night since I was in an area with no internet, only the 3g :) On a side note it is capable of tethering using pdanet's software w/ no monthly fee. I was going to mention something else, but I forgot what I was gonna say....oh well.

I'm frequently outdoors during the winter and I need to know if the touchscreen is responsive to cold/gloved fingers?
19. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
The Imagio has a resistive (pressure sensitive) touchscreen so it should be OK to use with gloves.
20. ryguy (Posts: 2; Member since: 12 Oct 2009)
Does anyone know if Windows Mobile 6.5 Pro will support Cisco IPSec VPN?
21. tringuyen82 (Posts: 2; Member since: 12 Oct 2009)
PhoneArena - I am considering this phone or Sprint's Hero. how does the touch/use compare using only the finger? Obviously, its resistive vs capacitive (sp) but I thought the resistive on Imagio was suppose to be quite good. I'd prefer capacitive, but would like to hear your thoughts. PLUS the screen on the Imagio looks a bit cheap. Glare? Thanks a bunch. Need the info, b/c I cant get a hold of the Imagio til Oct 20/21.
27. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
The resistive touchscreen on the Imagio is very responsive and sensitive. We didn't have any problem using a finger and not a stylus with it. Glare is only an issue if you are outside and the sun angle is reflecting on the screen, but any phone will do this.
28. tringuyen82 (Posts: 2; Member since: 12 Oct 2009)
Thanks for the feedback!
22. ryguy (Posts: 2; Member since: 12 Oct 2009)
Phonearena, can you please comment on the HTC Imagio's responsiveness switching between applications on this phone? According to some of the reviews on the Verizon Wireless website some claim the HTC Imagio is "sluggish" when switching between applications. Also, have you tested remote desktop on this phone, if so, what do you think of it?
26. PhoneArena Team (Posts: 258; Member since: 27 Jun 2006)
The Imagio seems to be faster than the Touch Pro2 when switching between applications. This might be because the Imagio has Windows Mobile 6.5 and the Touch Pro2 has 6.1. We have not tested Remote Desktop.

(JTA) — Elan Steinberg, the former World Jewish Congress executive vice president who helped lead efforts to obtain restitution for properties stolen during the Holocaust, has died.
Steinberg, 59, died in New York on Friday after a brief struggle with cancer, said Menachem Rosensaft, who, like Steinberg, is a vice president of the American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants.
Steinberg helped lead efforts in the 1990s that led Swiss banks, European governments and other entities to compensate victims of the Holocaust and their descendants.
He left the WJC in 2004 in the midst of an internal battle subsequent to reports of mismanagement of funds at the organization.
"Elan was a passionate advocate for the Jewish people, for the State of Israel, and for any Jew anywhere in the world who was persecuted or threatened," Rosensaft said in a statement. "His brilliant mind and his great heart have no equal and are irreplaceable. He died tragically all too young, and the entire Jewish community is orphaned today."
He is survived by his wife Sharon, his sons Max and Harry, his daughter Lena, and his brother Alex.

The Mill
Sabathia Rumors
With teams already around the half-way point in games played and closing in on the All-Star break, talk of the trade season is starting to heat up, and one rumor has been getting more attention than any other: Will the Indians deal their ace, C.C. Sabathia? If they will, who would the suitors be? Will Carroll started to take a look at the possibilities and realized that he needed help analyzing the potential prospect packages they could receive in return. Kevin Goldstein stepped in to size up the market for the sizable pitcher. Here's their conversation and analysis:
Will Carroll: Kevin, the Indians are at least thinking about trading C.C. Sabathia. You know the minor league systems of teams as well as anyone, so let's take a look at what the Indians needs are and what teams might match up there. First off, a lot of people are looking at a potential Sabathia deal as Bartolo Colon, the sequel. Is that the kind of payoff that the Indians should be looking for, or is "better than the two picks they'd get in the draft" the bar to cross?
Kevin Goldstein: Probably somewhere in between. It's possible that the Dan Haren trade kind of becomes the new baseline, but I don't think the Indians will be able to match even that, because in most scenarios, C.C. is really just a half-year (or less) rental. They'll certainly get more value than just the picks if they trade him, but I don't think teams will pay a ton (like five, six guys) like they have for other players they can assure will be around for a while.
WC: If we're looking at a two- or three-player deal and you're Mark Shapiro, are you trying to get the best available talent, or do you look at organizational needs? If it's the latter, what are the two or three top needs for the Indians?
KG: I think if you're the Indians, you're just looking for the most talent, period. That said, in a trade like this there is often some pressure to get at least something that can be in the big leagues now or very quickly in order to appease the fans. On a pure prospect level, the Indians are short on up-the-middle types, but you can say that about a lot of systems. In addition, as the old clich� goes, you can never have enough pitching.
WC: Who can fill these needs and also needs Sabathia enough to make the deal? It seems to me that the suspects are the Yankees, Cubs, Brewers, and Dodgers, according to most reports and my sources. Let's start with the Yankees-if you're the Indians, who are you asking for?
KG: The Yankees don't have a ton of up-the-middle talent. Jesus Montero is a catcher in name only, and he'd be very hard to trade because his value isn't fully there yet. Austin Jackson is a very good prospect, but the Indians don't need a center fielder. I think you'd be focusing on arms there. Would the Yankees be willing to give up on Hughes? I don't know. Dellin Betances has intriguing upside, but also comes with injury concerns. There are a number of nice relief prospects in the system, but it's hard to see them being enough to bring them Sabathia.
WC: How about the Cubs?
KG: The Cubs don't have a good minor league system, at all. So for them to do something, it might have to be a quantity over quality scenario. Maybe Cleveland would be a good landing spot for Ronny Cedeno, who I still believe in, but after that, it's kind of hard to find things that might appeal to the Indians. Maybe you could start off with power arms like Donald Veal and Jose Ceda, but after that, what else do you want?
WC: What about the Brewers, and how does the potential loss of two ace-level pitchers to free agency factor in? Giving Jack Zduriencik that many picks sounds interesting.
KG: Giving Jack Z. a lot of picks is always a dangerous thing-for other teams. Milwaukee has some good fits potentially for Cleveland. They might be interested in mid-level catching prospects like Jon Lucroy and Angel Salome, a glove-first shortstop like Alcides Escobar who has shown some offensive sings of life this year, and the Brewers also have some decent arms they might be able to throw in. Don't forget that with Matt LaPorta coming quickly and Mat Gamel mashing at Double-A but looking more and more like and first base/DH type defensively, the Brewers are close to having too many bats and not enough positions, so somebody is going to have to go.
WC: And finally, the Dodgers. Assuming that Frank McCourt is on the side of the win-now faction in the front office this week, who should the Indians be asking for from LA?
KG: Well, I'd hate to assume anything with Frank McCourt, but for the sake of argument, let's figure this out. I'd start this deal with Andy LaRoche-he solves the long-term problem at third base in Cleveland (although I'm still a Wes Hodges fan). While they're at it, might as well see if Hu is available to play shortstop. Other interesting names might be catcher Carlos Santana and solid arms like James Adkins, Steven Johnson, and James McDonald. All of that said, talking to some people inside the game, I get the feeling that the Dodgers are not going to trade young talent this year.
WC: Then the question becomes what are you getting. I think it depends on what a team wants to do. If Sabathia is just a rental, you're not going to be concerned about his long term health, fatigue, etc. In fact, a smart team would do just the opposite to wring all the value they can out of him. On the other hand, if you're thinking that a chance to get to Sabathia before he hits the market, then everything changes. You have to be concerned about the longer term. Which way would you go?
KG: I'm not sure we can answer that can we? Obviously, one would pay more if they could work out an extension with Sabathia, but it doesn't seem like that's in the cards. Here's a question for you that I've wondered about: Do we have any clue how pitchers his size age? He's a massive guy, and while he's made at least 28 starts every year of his career, I do wonder about stuff like that. It's not a negative for me, it's just an unknown.
WC: I agree. I think Sabathia is unique in that he's big but also surprisingly athletic. I often joke that Sabathia and Price Fielder could make for a good power forward tandem or bookend tackles in the NFL, but it's also a compliment that both of those guys could succeed at some level in many endeavors. Neither is a fat guy (like us). I'd look to PECOTA for aging, and it's pretty positive on him for the next three or four years, which is about how long most teams would give him. Jake Westbrook shows that anyone can end up on the DL, but one big positive for me is how he's come back from last year's workload. He struggled at the start of the season and it looked like it was going to be a big "playoff hangover." Instead, he's righted the ship, and pow, he's dominant again.
KG: I definitely agree with everything you are saying here, but I think it would take people far smarter than you and I to figure out exactly how this type of player would age. Again, it's not an overt concern, just a question that popped up for me.
WC: So far, we've been more focused on Sabathia and determined that his market value is pretty high. While every team has different moving parts, I think it's safe to say that the Indians are looking for a couple top prospects and one or two lesser prospects. It'd be ideal if one of those prospects was major league-ready... so we're looking at the Santana return, right?
KG: Maybe? I hate to be cagey here, but I don't want to get caught up too much comparing deals. Haren was a different animal because you got to keep him for a while. Santana was a different animal because you got the extension-even though only a few teams could afford to sign him to one. I think this is a different deal because it's looking like a rental. You do find in these trades that the seller tends to want to get some part that is either big league-ready or awfully close.
WC: What does that make some of the other possibilities worth? Ben Sheets, A.J. Burnett, and Erik Bedard are the "big names" that some are saying could be available, with Paul Byrd, Greg Maddux, and Joe Blanton ranking as lesser possibilities. While I don't think Sheets is going to be dealt-it's very hard to be buyers and sellers at the same time, and I can't remember a team trying something like that-where would you value some of these guys?
KG: I'm with you, I don't think Sheets is going anywhere. Bedard would surprise me a bit as well. I do think that when it comes to pitching, Burnett is definitely the consolation prize after Sabathia. If the Indians decide to dump, Byrd could get them something in return, and I'm sure you could get something small for Maddux with a team just looking to get some consistency in the back of their rotation. Blanton confuses me, just because the A's tried to trade him in the offseason but couldn't get a deal they liked, and now I'd guess his value is down a little bit.
WC: Finally, with the trade market and parity, not every team is going to be able to pull off the deal. What teams still have guys who could come up and make a difference, pitching-wise, for a contender?
KG: The Rays might, I wouldn't be shocked to see David Price there in the final months of the season. We've already seen Justin Masterson with the Red Sox. If the Phillies get desperate, you might see Carlos Carrasco, but that's a long shot.
WC: I've also been thinking about bullpens a lot, especially regarding the Rays, so I'll use them as the example. The system is thick with arms and some, if not all, are worth more to the Rays than as bait, but then again, not all of them will stick either. Why not take some of the power arms-Davis, McGee, even Price or Hellickson-and put them in the pen? I know you're going to argue development, but it didn't seem to hurt Joba Chamberlain or Adam Wainwright.
KG: I think one big difference is that Joba and Wainwright were both major league-ready when they got moved to the bullpen, and McGee and Davis aren't. You're right, the Rays are loaded with arms, and by default some of these guys are going to end up in the bullpen. I agree with what the Rays are doing, which is letting that figure itself out organically. I got a lot of flack going into the year for saying McGee might be better off as a reliever, but I still feel that way.
WC: I agree with you, both that McGee might be better off as a reliever, and that Chamberlain and Wainwright were major league-ready, which those two aren't. But are they better equipped than the likes of Grant Balfour or Gary Glover? Unless you're arguing for veteran value, which I don't think you are, I think you have to at least look at these guys as potential short-term bullpen fixes. And this isn't just the Rays either, I'm just using this as an example. Too many teams are concerned with filling roles rather than putting the best possible arms in place. I'm surprised that the success of Chamberlain, especially since it was done in-season, isn't making some other people at least consider this, but baseball changes slowly.
KG: It does, but Joba was also a special circumstance. One thing that a scouting director once told me has always stuck in my mind pretty strongly-it's his job and the job of the minor league system to create the most valuable assets for the organization. If you move McGee to the bullpen at Double-A right now, you immediately lessen his value. If he can get guys out, he can get guys out, so let him start until you are forced into relieving him, or anybody else for that matter.
WC: There are some late rumors that we have a new team in the Sabathia mix... who are they and what do they have to offer?
KG: I think the Red Sox would definitely have interest in Sabathia, and if you can deal with the risk, a deal could be made there. Unless the Sox are willing to give up a arm like Masterson or Michael Bowden, the Indians would have to be comfortable getting to pick from a collection of young, high-ceiling, but by default risky talent.
WC: What? I'll admit this one shocks me. The Sox played it very straight in all of the drama last year with Santana. They had their price, and they didn't move significantly off of it, even though things got close. To make this kind of move is almost buyer's remorse, isn't it?
KG: Not really. Situations change, and that was last December. I would guess that pretty much every team feels differently about many things concerning the future of their ballclub just six months later.
WC: Things do change, and I'm sure they'll change a lot between the time we post this and the trade deadline. I think we may have to have a couple more of these conversations in coming weeks.

HOUSTON - A Houston man is accused of tricking a good number of unsuspecting pet owners and performed an array of bogus treatments.
Authorities say there are 50 known victims and believe there are additional victims out there who don't know they were duped.
Twenty-six-year-old Wilfredo Gutierrez has already pleaded guilty to practicing medicine without a license. Police think he spayed at least one cat, gave bogus vaccines to dozens of animals and incorrectly treated a dog's broken leg.
Houston police say an animal cruelty investigation discovered Gutierrez was possibly practicing veterinary medicine without a license. Investigators say Gutierrez was using business names such as DogSmart Veterinary Services, Wilfredo Gutierrez Pet Services and Mobile Vet Vaccinations. He advertised using the phone number 832-748-2437 and provided veterinary services in pet owners' homes.
Gutierrez, who police say does not have a license to practice veterinary medicine, was arrested July 16 without incident. According to investigators, patient treatment cards were found in his possession and they believe he provided services for pets of unsuspecting citizens.
Police say they are looking for potential victims whose pets were treated by Gutierrez. Victims are urged to call the HPD Major Offenders Division Animal Cruelty Unit at 713-308-3100.

She has been refraining from kissing on screen all these years but she has made an exception for Hrithik Roshan. It is said that she agreed to kiss Hrithik in Zoya Akhtars film, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.Interestingly, the kissing scene between Hrithik and Katrina turned out to be steamy but lengthy. The duo apparently requested the makers of the film to shorten the kissing scene by making the song sequence "Ek Junoon a group song. It is not sure if Zoya Akhtar will give in to their pressure.It is said that Hrithik and Katrina share great chemistry in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and have even shot a 3-minute kissing scene for the song "Ek Junoon. In the song sequence, Katrina chases down Hrithik on her bike and kisses him as if she doesnt want to let the moment go.

VATICAN CITY -- France has reportedly withdrawn its nomination of an openly gay man as ambassador to the Holy See, following objections from the Vatican.
According to French and Italian press reports, the Vatican has refused the required diplomatic approval of several candidates proposed by Paris for the job, which has been vacant since the previous ambassador died in December 2007.
"The first candidate was divorced ... another Protestant, and the last not only homosexual but ... stably united with an official companion" in France's form of domestic partnership, the Italian daily La Repubblica reported on Monday (Sept. 29).
According to the paper, citing unnamed diplomatic sources, the Vatican recently agreed to the appointment of Stanislas de Laboulaye, who is currently France's envoy to Russia.
The Rev. Federico Lombardi, head of the Vatican press office, declined to comment on the matter, as did a spokesman for the French embassy to the Holy See.
The hiatus in diplomatic representation contrasts with generally warm relations between Pope Benedict XVI and France's President Nicolas Sarkozy, who has questioned his government's long-standing policy of strict secularism and called for greater recognition of France's Christian heritage.
However, the Vatican's rejection of ambassadorial candidates on account of their personal lives is hardly unprecedented.
Earlier this year, Argentina reportedly withdrew its nomination of former Justice Minister Alberto Iribarne as ambassador to the Holy See after the Vatican objected that Iribarne had been divorced and remarried, in violation of Catholic teaching.

When going for fear, comics are a tough medium to attempt it in. I don't mean horror; anybody can write slash and gore comics. I'm talking about fear, the stuff that makes us jump at a weird noise, that feeling in your stomach when you are truly afraid. If an artist is going to create that terror in a comic, it has to start with creating tension and then touch something primal in a person or it won't work. The new Image series Severed manages to create that uneasy sense of dread by investing it's story with one of the things that always leads to fear – being alone and powerless.
Think of the great films that have used this tool, the attack on Chrissy that opened Jaws, Michael Myers stalking Laurie Storde in Halloween, the quick shot of Pazuzu in The Exorcist. It wasn't really the monsters that scared us – who could identify with a shark or a demon or a psycho killer? What we related to was being alone and powerless,and Severed taps into that nicely.
Writers Scott Snyder (American Vampire, Detective Comics) and newcomer Scott Tuft refer to Severed as Historical Horror, and thus far have hit the nail on the head, not just with the setting but also the style of writing, bringing to mind EC Comics and pulp magazines of a by-gone era. Severed opens right away creating that air of tension by establishing the mystery of the main character Jack Garron. Meeting Jack in his fifties, he is given a letter by his grandson that awakens a secret so deep even his family doesn't know. We're whisked to Jack's early years as a twelve year old during the early 1900s. Jack is a smart kid who longs to learn about his real father, a traveling minstrel man who Jack runs away from home to pursue.
The flipside to this coin is a traveling salesman with a dental anomaly and a thirst for children's blood. This man has no real name or history, he is a shadow, an embodiment of evil that preys upon a child's greatest dream and uses it to gather victims. Snyder and Tuft smartly keep the man stoic at first, only easing out his crazier nature when he has a child alone. Bringing this child to a dark farmhouse and then sending him into the dark basement gets right under our primal fears and ratchets the tension up a notch. The reveal of the true beast behind this dark stranger isn't nearly as a big a deal as the idea of the little boy in the dark basement alone and what could be happening to him.
It's easy to let the killer take the lead with this kind of work but Snyder and Tuft never follow the easy path. They work to make sure Jack's story is just as exciting, making sure we never lose sight of the fact that he's the main character. By the end of the book, Jack's eventual meeting with the dark stranger is set and generates that feeling of wanting to buy issue two and then three and so on. This is whole new door for Snyder, though it shows the same strong ability to write darker stories that he's displayed in Detective Comics and American Vampire. I'm not sure who did what but the work between both Tuft and Snyder is seamless, there's never a sudden jolt where the writing takes a dip in quality.
Attila Futaki's art is what ties up this little package. Doing period anything – horror, war, high seas adventure – works only if the art kicks ass. With Severed, Futaki attacks it as if he was the dark and weird cousin of Norman Rockwell. The pages are atmospheric and tranquil, but there's a darkness to them that bubbles just under the surface. Futaki's earth tone color palette helps give Severed a more realistic vibe. He's painting a lighter era of American history but making sure we know that darkness is there. The story possibilities with Severed are endless, especially with Jack being an old man when we meet him. If Severed #1 is any indication, Snyder, Tuft and Futaki could bring to comic books a series that would make Poe or Lovecraft proud.

Computype, Inc., in partnership with Nautilus Systems, today announced the launch of the Flexible Tube and Vial Feeder (Flex TVF), an innovative new system for automatic downstream feeding of tubes and vials that helps increase efficiency. The first-of-its-kind system separates tubes or vials from a bulk hopper and feeds them into an automated labeling device, ensuring each piece exiting the system is feeding in the correct orientation.
The Flex TVF is designed with the user in mind. With only a simple changeover of one mechanical component and a few settings, the system easily adjusts to accommodate tubes and vials from 6mm to 14mm in diameter, and up to 96 mm long. It is compatible with automated machines, such as the Nautilus PR100i with Tube Pro Accessory, creating a complete tube and vial labeling system. The need for manual operation is eliminated with its high feed rate (up to 40 parts per minute) and use of a bulk storage hopper. The system also includes Flex TVF Whisper Drive technology, requiring no vibratory element and creating virtually no noise, especially compared to loud vibratory feeders.
"For years, the only option available for bulk tube and vial feeding was a vibratory bowl. But that technology is loud, cumbersome, and limiting in many ways," said Joal McAlister, life sciences market manager at Computype. "The Flex TVF is easy to use and has the potential to greatly increase lab efficiency."

In line with other dashcams from the PAPAGO! GoSafe line, the GoSafe 115 has a substantially slimmer profile than the P3. It'll record 720p HD video with a 126-degree viewing angle, displaying what it is recording via the 2.0-inch display. As can be expected, it'll automatically overwrite old footage and power comes by way of your car's 12V outlet.
Some key safety features include a stop and go alert, a headlight reminder for driving in the dark, a driver fatigue alert and a motion sensor. You'll need to hardwire the dashcam for power if you want to use that last feature.
The PAPAGO! GoSafe 115 dashcam retails for $89.99.

The Auditor-General has raised concerns about the confidentiality of details given to private debt collection agencies who chase people owing money to Centrelink.
A report from the Australian National Audit Office shows Centrelink is paying commissions worth $8 million a year to the agencies for their work.
The Department of Human Services, which oversees Centrelink, appears to be getting value for its money, with the agencies increasing the success rate of their recovery.
However the audit said the department was considering "alternative future models" for debt recovery.
The department delivers $150 billion in payments each year and recovers about $1.1 billion each year in debts due to overpayments.
Private debt collection agencies brought in $114 million – about 10 per cent – of the overpayments clawed back in 2011-12.
Debts occur through overpayment of Newstart or other allowances when people do not notify the department about changes in their circumstances.
However, debts cannot be recovered by putting people into severe financial hardship.
The cost of recovering Centrelink debts in 2011-12 was estimated at almost $30 million.
"While the number of Centrelink payment debts raised annually has declined in recent years (from 2.2 million to 1.8 million), the value of the debts recovered annually has remained at the same level ($1.1 billion)," the audit said.
It said the department's administration of the agencies' contracts to recover debt was generally effective.
However it found the department had not conducted formal audits of the agencies' compliance with requirements in contracts to protect customer information.
The single recommendation from the audit refers to confidentiality.
"The ANAO recommends that the Department of Human Services periodically verify compliance with the IT, physical and personnel security requirements contained in the current contracts with external collection agencies, to gain assurance that DHS [Department of Human Services] customer information is being managed securely," it said.
The department agreed with the finding and said it was committed to the introduction of security audits, consistent with the contractor's responsibilities, for the protection of information.
"This added compliance measure will increase confidence that debtor information, passed to the external collection agencies for the purpose of debt recovery, is secure and debtor's privacy and confidentiality is being risk managed appropriately," the department told the audit office.
The department has two external debt collection agencies – Dun & Bradstreet and Recoveries Corporation.
"While it is not possible to provide a final contract value, in 2012-13, DHS [Department of Human Services] raised initial purchase orders for a total of $8 million (GST exclusive) to cover the expected ECA [external collection agencies] commissions," the audit said.
"While the amount recovered by DHS in the previous two years has remained the same at $1.1 billion, the ECAs' contribution to the total amount has almost doubled since 2009-10, when it was $60.8 million or 5.5 per cent."
The recovery activity by the agencies generated a quarter of all complaints about debt recovery.

Adnan Oktar: The conception of Islam set out and applied by Turkey is an excellent model for Europe. Europe regards Turkey as very excellent and useful in that area, it also considers the way Islam is lived as ideal for the world. This has already produced a complete solution to the question. Under Turkish leadership, an enlightened, rational and genuine conception of Islam will rule the world, Insha'Allah.
MPL TV, 23 April 2008
Adnan Oktar:For one thing, Turkey has experience of state. It has experience of empire. It has experience of running countries. And it has the ability. And the Turkish nation has remained quite sterile. In terms of moral values, Anatolian virtues have remained unimpaired. Anatolia has been preserved. That hospitality, cleanliness, moral virtue, warmth, humanity, neighborliness, compassion and altruism have remained as they were. But Europe has lost them... This will not make Europe uneasy. THIS IS A SALVATION FOR EUROPE. The Turkish-Islamic union will be like Europe's policeman at the same time. BECAUSE A VERY POWERFUL INSTITUTION WILL HAVE EMERGED THAT PROTECTS EUROPE, PROTECTS THE WORLD AND BRINGS THE WORLD PEACE AND SECURITY. EUROPE WILL LIVE IN PEACE AND CALM. Why should Europe not want that? Nothing will change. This system will also support NATO and the EU. THIS IS A GREAT BLESSING FOR THE EU. BECAUSE BY MEANS OF IT, THE EU WILL BECOME EXCEEDINGLY WEALTHY... The love of the Turkish-Islamic union will enfold them, too. They will live in peace.
