On the Historical Continuity of the Process of Economic Growth
Pooled regressions, first of eight and then of sixteen countries, show a steady and robust process of endogenous growth in Europe since 1870, interrupted only by the events of World War II and the impact of convergence towards US levels of performance in the 1950s and the 1960s. This result contrasts with that of Maurice Scott, who finds that growth accelerated after 1945. Catching up is no longer relevant in the 1970s and the 1980s, despite a continuing gap in productivity levels vis á vis the US. Neither was it relevant in the pre-World War II era. Growth is, therefore, characterized by the device `back to normal'. Even so, some under-perform in terms of economic growth.

There's a thread on this over at the bay12 forums, this post is by the author.
"This book represents an experiment by O'Reilly in "real time" publishing. This means the book is likely to get frequent updates - I believe that people who buy the book will actually get updates pushed to them as the book is maintained on an ongoing basis by me (and possibly others). I love being part of an experiment, makes me feel dwarfy."
I'm guessing that's in reference to an e-book version as I can't see them making money mailing out new pages and chapters as they're done.

Shalimar Bagh, is a Mughal garden linked through a channel to the northeast of Dal Lake, on its right bank located near Srinagar city in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The Bagh (garden) was built by Mughal Emperor Jahangir for his wife Nur Jahan, in 1619. The Bagh is considered the high point of Mughal horticulture. Recent history of the Mughal types of gardens is credited to Emperor Jahangir of the Mughal Dynasty, the ancient history of the garden is traced to the 2nd century.
We stayed in Pahelgam in Jammu and Kashmir for 3 days. Aru is situated at 7,200 ft above sea level. We drove to Aru from Pahegam, a small yet self-sufficient scenic village located 15 km from Pahalgam. The village of Aru is situated among the grasslands and could be reached by car or by walking along the scenic mountain path .. The way to Aru is full of grandeur of mother Nature and this is one of them ...
Nestled among the rolling mountains with the glistening Mt Kanchenjunga towering over the azure sky, Darjeeling fondly called "Queen of the Hills", provides a perfect gateway for those seeking to be in harmony with nature..
The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, also known as the "Toy Train", is a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge railway that runs between New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling in West Bengal. Built between 1879 and 1881, the railway is about 86 kilometers (53 mi) long. Its elevation level varies from about 100 meters (328 ft) at New Jalpaiguri to about 2,200 metres (7,218 ft) at Darjeeling. The track after Kurseong and New Jalpaiguri has now completely vanished due to earthquake few years back. A local train now runs between Darjeeling and Kurseong. We took a "Joy Ride" on this train running between Darjeeling at 2,200 meters (7,218 ft) and Ghum at 2,258 meters (7,407 ft). The train stops at Batasia for 10 minutes and proceeds to Ghum and stops at Ghum for 30 minutes & then returns back to Darjeeling. It was an experience... This "Toy Train" is now listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We were approaching Jorbanglo, a small township near Darjeeling situated at an height of 2520 meter or 8297 feet above sea level. It was a grand drive from Darjeeling which is at 2,050 meters or 6,710 ft. The grandeur of nature is at its best in Summer and as one drives one passes through picturesque villages and townships.
I found this plant in almost every city in China. I am not sure what it is called.

"Pleased with the overall product. The paper stock we selected was not what we may have chosen had we known how it turned out. Would consider using them again."
"Perfect for a 60th wedding anniversary. Used a wedding photo on top and a current photo below. The designer gave advice on photo quality. The result was very professional. Happy to set the tone for our event with this invitation."
"Everyone Loved our Wedding invitations! Got a lot of great comments! I changed the colors to reflect our wedding theme colors of purple and green However, the purple background with green text made it a bit difficult to read (especially the elderly guests) I sould have switch the colors for better contrast. Wish weddingdivas experts would have picked this up but other than that they did a FANTASTIC job! Definitely would recommend!"
"I had fun customizing this 'custom' invitation and customer service was seamless. I do wish I could have ordered rounded corners without an upcharge. The plain square looks cheap to me and would be no big deal for vendor to provide trimmed corners for a more professional-looking product. Everything was delivered as promised...beautiful and timely. Nice job, Divas!"
"I was impressed at how easy it was to use the site to upload photos and input text, select color options and other add-ons like printed return addresses on the envelope, etc. The end result is great and looks like a high quality, custom invitation. Thanks!"

{{#set:Summary=You slip into the far realm to travel great distances. This is how you teleport, reckless style. }} {{#set:School=Conjuration }}
|Casting time:
|1 standard action
|Up to one touched willing creature/ level
|See text
|Saving Throw:
|Will negates
|Spell Resistance:
You and any creature you touch are transported from the Material Plane to the Far Realm, just skirting its "surface", not enough to expose you to all the gibbering horrors beyond the beyond, but enough to break the laws of physics and send you hurtling through time and space for destinations unknown. You can take more than one creature along with you (subject to your level limit), but all must be touching each other.
In the edge of the far realm your rate of movement is irregular, sometimes at a crawl and sometimes traveling several times the speed of light. What matters instead is how long you remain traveling. The longer you travel, the more accurate your trip. A short trip may be able to transport you very far, but at a tremendous error rate where you are likely to end up embedded in a wall. Of course, staying in the far realm, even for just a while, has other problems.
Your effective range you can move with this spell is unlimited as greater teleport. You do not need to be familiar with the terrain but you do need to know your approximate distance and direction. Your accuracy is determined not by familiarity, but by how long you spend submerged within the far realm. Each round you spend within the far realm provokes a DC 20 Will save by all travelers, failure results in taking a -1 penalty to Wisdom, and each failure stacks with itself (the penalty cannot drop you below 1 point of Wisdom). For the caster, it results in 1 point of Wisdom damage instead and can be reduced to 0 Wisdom. If this occurs, the caster and his occupants are lost to the far realm and sink into the actual plane, forced to deal with whatever dangers that exist there, with their now-in-a-coma caster. The Wisdom penalty lasts for 1 minute, and then is restored, while the Wisdom damage must be cured as normal.
To determine accuracy roll 1d100 and consult the following table:
|Time spent in Far Realm
|On Target
|Off Target
|Similar Area
|20+ rounds
|15-19 rounds
|10-14 rounds
|5-9 rounds
|1-4 rounds
On Target: You appear where you want to be.
Off Target: You appear safely a random distance away from the destination in a random direction. Distance off target is 1d10×100 feet in a random horizontal direction from your desired endpoint. If this would place you within a solid object, you are shunted 1d10×1,000 feet in the same direction. If this would still place you within a solid object, you (and any creatures with you) are shunted to the nearest empty space available, but the strain of this activity renders each creature fatigued (no save).
Similar Area: You wind up in an area that's visually or thematically similar to the target area.
Generally, you appear in the closest similar place within range. If no such area exists within the spell's range, the spell simply fails instead.
Mishap: You and anyone else teleporting with you have gotten "scrambled." You each take 1d10 points of damage, and you reroll on the chart to see where you wind up. For these rerolls, roll 1d20+80. Each time "Mishap" comes up, the characters take more damage and must reroll.
Passage of the Warp can also be used to travel to other planes, but it requires a much more dangerous deeper dive into the plane. The transit of the far realm requires is twice the normal amount (thus the safest transport would take 40 rounds, aka 40 Will saves, to reach the plane in question). Perhaps as a strange result of the physics of the far realm compared to the material plane, to outside observers your transport appears to be instantaneous, and in some rare cases there has been mention of adventurers arriving from a far realm trip before they have even left...

Journal of the Senate
Senate Chamber, Topeka, Kansas
Friday, February 5, 1999--9:00 a.m.
The Senate was called to order by President Dick Bond.
The roll was called with thirty-seven senators present.
Senators Feleciano, Harrington and Praeger were excused.
Invocation by Chaplain Fred S. Hollomon:
Heavenly Father,
We are grateful for the blessings of technology, but perhaps we should be even more
grateful that prayer has not been taken over by high tech.
I can imagine we would have to buy a prayer phone and when we tried to call You,
O God, we would have to:
Press 1 if we have a complaint.
Press 2 if we have a request.
Press 3 if we have a confession.
And if we press 3 we would hear:
Press 1 if you want to confess idolatry.
Press 2 if you want to confess profanity.
Press 3 if you want to confess a crime.
And if we press 3 we would hear:
Press 1 if your crime is a misdemeanor.
Press 2 if your crime is felony.
And on and on.
Thank You, Lord, that we don't need a prayer phone to pray. We don't need to press
anything. All we have to do is think what we want You to know and our prayer is heard.
Thank You, Lord, that You have given us no excuse for not praying.
I pray in the Name of Christ,

Newly single Scarlett Johansson looked un-glam -- but still sexy -- getting some R&R in Jamaica on Wednesday.
The day after her announced split from Ryan Reynolds, a low-key Johansson was photographed in a cleavage-bearing bikini top and loose tank top -- plus shorts, sunglasses and a hat.
The Iron Man 2 actress, 26, is on the tropical island with pals as she processes the end of her two-year marriage to Reynolds, 34.
A source told Us Weekly that Johansson has "confided in friends" since the breakup, and was "unhappy for a while" in the union.
Reynolds, meanwhile, has "has been reaching out to an ex the past few months," another insider says. "He is seeking comfort, but not in a romantic or sexual way."

IT looks like something straight from Middle Earth, a volcano that spews water instead of lava.
But rather than a home for trolls and imaginary beings, Chile's Montana Magica Lodge is really a hotel attracting intrepid humans.
The bizarre lodge is set on a 300,000 acre nature reserve and erupts daily. It offers guests wild mini golf, spas carved out of tree trunks, and access to an abundance of wildlife and terrain.
Guests in the 13 rooms have access to the longest flying fox in South America, which runs through the grounds 450m high.
But visitors will have to take quite a trek to get there, not to mention crossing a swing rope bridge to get inside.
Backpackers might find staying at the lodge doesn't come cheap though with prices ranging from $220 to $385.

Seventy-year-old Californian Gerald Ryan - known as Ryan to his friends - is no ordinary senior.
For 100 days a year, for the last 10 years, he has sailed the finest cruise ships of the world... for a living.
His job is to seek out the divorcees, widows and elderly singletons on the passenger list and offer them his time as a dinner companion or dance floor partner.
Many of the women he approaches are shy, so it often takes a great deal of persuasion to secure that first dance of the evening.
An accomplished ballroom dancer, Ryan is one of the few gentleman hosts confident enough to teach dance lessons during sea days on board too.
In fact, other hosts often attend his lessons to pick up some tips!
Strictly ballroom
Ryan has always been careful to stick by the rules, which means not fraternising too closely with any of the single ladies on board.
He insists he has no difficulty in retaining a professional distance from his clients, adding: "We're pretty good at being able to withdraw when a lady is getting a little too attached, shall we say."
Although relationships between hosts and passengers are strictly forbidden on board ship, if an attraction does develop, they are allowed to swap names and numbers.
On a recent cruise, Ryan did meet a very special someone, an English lady who is now his girlfriend.
And if romance continues to blossom, it may well mean his hosting days are numbered.

1. Download and install the Apache server from http://httpd.apache.org. I used Apache 2.2 with OpenSSL when I was writing this. Also, this post is based on JBoss 4.2.1 (Turnkey) running on Windows.
2. Edit the Tomcat configuration file $JBOSS_HOME\server\lc_turnkey\deploy\jboss-web.deployer/server.xml of your JBoss server, adding the proxyName and proxyPort parameters with the name and port of the LiveCycle server. It should look something like this:<Connector port="8443″ protocol="HTTP/1.1″ SSLEnabled="true" proxyName="cg-w2k8-lces2.eur.adobe.com" proxyPort="443″ maxThreads="150″ scheme="https" secure="true" keystoreFile="C:/Adobe/Adobe LiveCycle ES2/jboss/server/lc_turnkey/conf/lces.keystore" keystorePass="password" clientAuth="false" sslProtocol="TLS" />
3. Use the openssl command to generate a certificate and key that our Apache server will need to handle SSL connections. Open a command prompt, go to Apache2.2\bin and run the openssl command with values matching your environment:openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -sha1 -newkey rsa:1024 -nodes -keyout server.key -out server.crt -subj "/O=CompanyXYZ/OU=PS/CN=yourserver.companyxyz.com" -config "C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf\openssl.cnf"
4. Copy the generated server.key and server.crt files to the Apache2.2\conf folder.
5. Open Apache2.2\conf\httpd.conf and uncomment the following lines, which will enable proxying and SSL on the Apache server.:LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so Include conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf
6. Also add the following lines to the httpd.conf:# Prevent Apache from acting like a forward proxy
7. Add the reverse proxy configuration at the end of the httpd.conf file:ProxyPass / https://yourserver.companyxyz.com:8443/
As explained in the post I referenced at the beginning, this configuration won't filter any URL, and it will just redirect every request (/) to the SSL port of the JBoss server. If we want to be more restrictive and only allow specific URLs, we will need to configure that. For example, here we only allow access to the Rights Management UI:ProxyPass /edc https://jboss.company.com:8443/edc
8. We also need to configure the SSL connection for the Apache server. Open Apache2.2\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf and perform the following modifications:
– Uncomment the following line:SSLSessionCache "dbm:C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/ssl_scache"
– Comment out the following line:SSLSessionCache "shmcb:C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/ssl_scache(512000)"
– Locate the <VirtualHost _default_:443> block and insert the following line in it:SSLProxyEngine on
The block should look something like the following:… ## ## SSL Virtual Host Context ## <VirtualHost _default_:443> # General setup for the virtual host DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs" ServerName yourserver.companyxyz.com:443 ServerAdmin email@example.com ErrorLog "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/error.log" TransferLog "C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/access.log" # SSL Engine Switch: # Enable/Disable SSL for this virtual host. SSLEngine on SSLProxyEngine on …
9. Restart JBoss and Apache servers.
The thing that I really like about the tool is that it allows you to configure your custom component without the need of manually editing the component.xml file.
Before installing the Development Tool you need to make sure you have the following Eclipse frameworks installed:
– Eclipse Modeling Framework Project (EMF)
– Eclipse Graphical Editing Framework (GEF)
– Web Tools Platform (WTP SDK)
After installing these 3 frameworks, you can download the Development Tool from Adobe Labs and install it on your Eclipse (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/lcwcdtool.html).
Now, once installed, you will follow the following steps to create your custom component:
… by defining its operations:

The 49ers are most likely to sign Singletary after the season according to Adam Schefter.
Nothing's official yet — it can't be until after the season. But Mike Singletary is on his way to having the interim removed from his title and becoming the 49ers head coach for 2009.
San Francisco could make the announcement as early as the days after the season, according to league sources.
At this point, it will take something drastic for the 49ers not to name Singletary the head coach, and even then it is difficult to envision what that could be. Singletary already has survived some well-documented incidents that caused some to question whether he were the right man to lead the team in the future.
But through his audition, he has proven he is the right choice. The 49ers have been won at Buffalo, beaten the New York Jets, and been more competitive than they were early in the season. Singletary has ignited a spark in the players that rarely was seen before.
In fact, Singletary has been so convincing that it has gotten to the point where if he were not brought back, there would be disappointment among the masses.

Music Therapy is the use of music interventions to address physical, emotional, behavioural and social needs of children. It also helps children achieve specific goals and is provided by a qualified music therapist at Body & Soul. Music therapists use both instrumental and vocal music strategies to bring about changes that are non-musical in nature.
In sessions, all types of music are used to address the needs of the children.
Music therapy can be designed to:
• explore personal feelings through non-threatening means
• make positive changes in mood and emotional states
• encourage healthy communication
• improve self-esteem and develop confidence through successful musical experiences
• promote wellness
• manage stress
• promote physical rehabilitation
overall to enhance a child's quality of life
Each music therapy session is unique as it is designed for each child. Our music therapist will asses your child's needs through their musical response. Session plans are then designed for individuals and groups – based on the child's needs using music improvisation, receptive music listening, music performance, song writing, lyric discussion and learning through music.
Music therapy helps children with complex needs to explore personal feelings through a non-threatening means; make positive changes in mood; practice problem solving; encourage healthy communication and improve self esteem and through successful musical experiences. The sensory and intellectual stimulation of music can help increase or maintain a person's quality of life.
Children do not need to have musical ability to benefit from music therapy. No previous musical experience is required!
The Children's Centre at Body & Soul is led by a qualified and very experienced teacher. As such, all activities are tailored to developmental and educational targets for each age-group.
Children aged 5-9 are able to access Lauchpad every Tuesday, which focuses on developing literacy and numeracy skills, in-keeping with national curriculum standards. Volunteers provide one-to-one support and can also assist with any homework. Children benefit from a number of programmes that promote their self-esteem and confidence, enabling them to feel better-able at approaching challenging tasks and situations at school.
Body & Soul offers a range of therapies to address the complex and unique needs the of children who attend. Children can access music therapy, play therapy and art therapy as well as visiting the sensory room. All of these interventions are led by qualified therapists and children who may benefit will be identified in advance and parents/carers involved in the process.
These therapies address the physical, emotional, behavioural and social needs of children and can help them improve self-esteem and confidence, manage stress, explore personal feelings, improve communication and make positive changes in their lives. Each session is unique and tailored to meet their individual needs
Body & Soul's children's programmes are for children from the ages of 0-12 years however when children reach the age of 13, they are able to move into Teen Spirit, our group for young people aged 13-19 years.
We will work with families and children throughout this transition period to make sure it is the right time to change groups. If your child attends the BaSe group, we usually aim for a small group of children to join Teen Spirit at the same time to ease their transition.
We understand that prospect of naming HIV to your children can be a worrying one. At Body & Soul, we have many years' experience in guiding families through this process and identifying the best ways of talking about HIV with your children for the first time.
Young children attending Body & Soul's children's centre do not receive any information on HIV at all. Our building is geared towards maintaining this and we ensure that your children will not come into contact with any information that discusses HIV.
To find out more about how we can support you in the process of naming HIV to your children, and the support that is available for both you and your child, please take a look at our information around talking about HIV to our children.
Yes. Although HIV is not openly discussed in the children's centre, your child could benefit greatly by attending. Through 1:1 sessions with children or family sessions, we can help clear any misconceptions and concerns they may have, talk to them in a language they understand about the importance of confidentiality and support them in building self-esteem and confidence.
Yes. We can help and guide you through this process and work with you to make a plan best-suited to your needs and those of your child. We understand that this process can be difficult and requires a flexible approach that incorporates the readiness and maturity level of the child, your family circumstances and other situational factors that maybe unique to your family.
Contact us to find out how we can help you.
An HIV-affected person is someone who has a close family member (such as a sibling, parent or other primary carer) who is living with HIV.
Being affected by HIV can have a negative impact on an individual's physical, emotional and social health and can means that they are vulnerable to early carer responsibilities, dealing with death and bereavement, poverty, exploitation, discrimination.
Being HIV positive doesn't stop you being a good parent but it may mean that you have more days when you feel unwell or when you don't have the energy to do those extras for your child, like visits to a playground or play dates with a friend.
The older they become, the more aware your child will be of those things and whilst they may not know about HIV they are likely to be aware you are not well, or get sick more than their friends' parents. This can be worrying and frustrating for children, particularly if they are not at an age where you feel ready to talk openly about HIV with them. If children have those worries it can impact on their behaviour and ability to concentrate in school.
At Body & Soul we are experienced in helping children through structured programmes that teach them how to manage difficult emotions, develop coping strategies and increase confidence. Together these build the resilience that will support children to achieve their full potential no matter how difficult or stressful their family circumstances and will also give them the tools to manage better when they do eventually find out about HIV.
You can call Body & Soul on 0207 923 6880 or email us on firstname.lastname@example.com. You can refer your child yourself, or ask your doctor, nurse or clinician to call if you prefer. There is also an online form on this website that you can complete and we will get back to you.
The Children's Centre at Body & Soul is registered with the official body for inspecting schools and nurseries, OFSTED. It is managed by Jane King, a qualified and experienced teacher. A number of other staff also have childcare and teaching qualifications and are qualified in first aid and paediatric first aid. All staff and volunteers are subject to an enhanced CRB check and volunteers attend regular, comprehensive training. Depending on your child's needs and in consultation with you, they may also attend play therapy, music therapy or art therapy sessions. All practitioners are qualified, registered with the relevant bodies and CRB checked.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
Hi - my name is XXXXX XXXXX I'm a Bankruptcy litigation attorney here to assist you.
Is it for the same debt, or a different debt?
If it's the same debt, the representative should have filed a amended proof of claim and indicate on the top right of the firm that this proof of claim amends the previous one.
If the proof of claim doesn't do this, you should file a motion to strike the proof of claim and claim that the same debt is being sought twice. The judge should strike the improperly filed claim.
It is not likely that the court would find that this was fraudulent unless it is proven that the representative did this on purpose in an attempt to defraud the court and trustee. This is often hard to prove, and usually the intent of the filing party is not based on fraud.

Goya, Francisco
Students of Goya, Francisco studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! Goya, Francisco textbooks – for example Goya: Painter of Terror and Splendour (New Horizons) by [Jeannine Baticle, Alexandra Campbell], and The Self-Portraits of Francisco Goya by [John J. Ciofalo] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of Goya, Francisco is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Goya, Francisco books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking Goya, Francisco classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.

Racial Politics and Pop CultureLeftist reactions to the Tea Parties, Joe Wilson's 'liar' comment, and the recent expose of ACORN illustrate and verify that old sardonic joke often bandied about in conservative circles: "What is the definition of a racist? Anyone winning an argument against a liberal."
From Maureen Dowd's recent tirade in the New York Times chalking Wilson's outburst up to racism, to the charges of bigotry emanating from the ignorant lips of Bill Maher and Janeane Garofalo about Obama's dissenters, the humorous aphorism is proving evermore true. Mainstream talking heads on cable networks have not shied away from engaging in such vitriolic accusations either, fallaciously asserting that Obama's opponents do not oppose his policies, rather, they oppose and fear him because he is black, as Joe Klein elucidated recently on "The Chris Matthews Show."
All humor has an element of truth; sadly, this old joke has become indubitable fact. The reflexive reversion to the race card, as disgusting and transparent as it is, does show, however, that those in opposition to the administration's mass power grab and irreparably-flawed worldview are winning.
But while on this touchy subject of race, perhaps we ought to delve into a recent pop culture snafu which, though outside the purview of current policy debates, provides an interesting commentary on the societal double standard of contemporary racial finger pointing. Infamously at the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday night, Kanye West, black rapper and outspoken Obama supporter, rushed the stage as the award for Best Female Video was awarded to the young, soft spoken country singer Taylor Swift. Snatching the microphone from her small white hands, West proceeded to protest that it was Beyonce who deserved to win (leaving the subject of his rant shocked and tastefully outraged). West has been known in the past for his racially-charged criticisms of the Bush Administration and his frank words about his fundamental identity as a black man in America... Would he have done the same if Swift were black?
Had the tables been turned and say, Toby Keith had rushed the stage and wrestled a microphone from Beyonce's hands to protest for Taylor Swift, the charges of racism would be fast and loose from all corners of society. Little to no racial connection has been made to Kanye West's outrageous actions. Charges of racism, it seems, go one way (often erroneously and with unfortunate results, a la the Gates 'profiling' affair, the Duke lacrosse injustice, and the current subversion of honest consideration of Obama's policy agenda).
To be sure, there are individuals across the ideological spectrum who see the world through racially-tinged glass. It is, however, the liberal wing of American politics which wields the charge of racism as a convenient tool to avoid debate and achieve desired political ends. As we have seen, time and again, and as Project 21 consistently reveals with alacrity, charges of racism are often an exercise in leftist hypocrisy. Best to move forward and attempt to relegate such ugly sentiments to the proverbial dustbin of history.

Just in case anyone doubted that Vitor Belfort was interested in the winner of this weekend's fight between Anderson Silva and Chris Weidman, he made it clear on twitter that he believes that he deserves the next title shot. "The Phenom" recently tweeted UFC president Dana White, saying "the fans and me are very excited to see who is going to my next opponent on this Saturday I deserve the winner!"
Belfort (24-10 MMA, 13-6 UFC), has certainly made a very strong case for himself this year. Since losing to Jon Jones in a short-notice fight, Vitor has won 3 straight fights via head-kick knockout over top opponents Michael Bisping, Luke Rockhold, and Dan Henderson.
Vitor has campaigned for the title shot after each of his recent wins, but the one road block has been Dana White. However, White recently stated that "everyone wants to see" Belfort fight either Weidman or Silva. With Vitor's stellar record this year, the fight seems all but a forgone conclusion.
@danawhite the fans and me are very excited to see who is going to my next opponent on this Saturday I deserve the winner!

Georgia2 for Kindle 3 (firmware 3.2.1)
View Single Post

Karma: 1176824
Join Date: Mar 2010
Device: Kindle 2i, Kindle Keyboard 3G
First, I have a Kindle2, jailbroken, font hacked, etc. I figured I would try this Palatino, because I like the font. And there should be no difference in changing fonts from K3 to K2, right? I've done it before, and have been using a nice Georgia2 font.
So, I added the Palatino font (of course backing up my fonts folder), and it looked fine -- actually, a little too fine for my old eyes, so I decided to try the Georgia. I copied the font to my fonts folder, but when I went to do a restart, I could not! I kept getting a pop-up window asking if I really wanted to de-register my Kindle.
Finally, I replaced my font folder with the backup and did a hard restart, and everything is back as it should be.
I think this may have been due to a spacing change in the font (I noticed that there was much bigger line spacing with the Palatino), which maybe caused some kind of mis-location of the cursor?? I haven't a clue. Anyway, my old Georgia 2 font is just fine. It is just that it is hard to resist funking around.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Sagittal Condylar Movement Patterns for Identifying Internal Derangement of the Temporomandibular Joint
The aim of this study was to compare sagittal condylar movement patterns (SCMP, Axiograph) and high-field (1.5 T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of the temporomandibular disorders. One hundred forty-one patients with TMD signs and/or symptoms were selected for this study. SCMP was categorized into six patterns: normal, figure-eight (early/intermediate/late), limited, and otehr irregularities. The MRI findings of TMJ internal ment were defined as one of five stages according to Wilkes criteria and then compared to the SCMP findings. Among normal SCMP, MRI revealed disc displacement in 27%. Sixty-three percent of figure-eight SCMP were regarded as stage I or II with reducible disc displacement. The sensitivity and specificity of 0.62, respectively. The point of deflection in figure-eight SCMP and the degree of disc displacement were not significantly related. However, a significant relationship was observed between the point of deflection in figure-eight SCMP and any type of disc deformation (chi-square = 9.80, P = .002). Thus, SCMP is not y et accurate enough for diagnosing a TMJ condition, espeically in the case of chronic and/or adaptive internal derangement.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 16/7/2014 (1132 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Bombers' quick turnaround to open 2014 -- their 3-0 start means they have already matched last season's measly win total -- is a heckuva story. In fact, next to the return of football to Ottawa, it might be THE biggest CFL story to start this campaign.
But even with the club unbeaten through three games and even with Drew Willy looking like the QB saviour fans in these parts have been praying for, the game is not officially a sellout. As of late Wednesday afternoon the ticket total had hit 29,100 -- still short of the 33,500 capacity at Investors Group Field.
All of this says a few things about this town and its football team, first and foremost this: Winning just nine games in the last two years while becoming the CFL's laughingstock is an ugly stain that isn't easy to scrub out of the carpet.
And so, clearly the Bombers have some work to do in selling the fans on the 2014 edition as well as changing fans' habits about the game-day experience at the new building.
Step one in that solution?
"It just means we've got to keep winning until it's full," said Willy. "It's like that in any pro sport. If you win, they'll definitely be there. They want to see a good product and we want to have a good product so let's just make sure we're doing the right things to win the game."
Yes, as much as winning can gloss over a lot of flaws, constant butt-kickings in which even the most faithful fan has his/her loyalty shaken can grind down people. The Bombers have had two sellouts in the first year and a bit of IGF -- the opener last season and Banjo Bowl. But they've also played 11 games at the new building and have just a 3-8 record, albeit 2-0 this season.
"I guess people just want to get to the cabins a bit earlier," said Bomber tackle Glenn January of the early-season fan response.
"We've got fans that have supported us through a lot of down times. This is a place that people are scared to come and play because of how loud our fans can get. I understand there may be some people that are a bit hesitant to jump back on the bandwagon. But our goal is to put forth a quality product.
"And we believe over time we may be able to make amends for our past mistakes."
Both Willy and Eskimo pivot Mike Reilly have earned their places behind centre by working up through the ranks to earn starting jobs after years of being groomed by those ahead of them. The curious part is neither is now calling the shots for the teams that first brought them north to Canada, Willy by the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Reilly by the B.C. Lions.
But now they are getting the chances to run their own shows, the fireworks are flying. Both are willing to take a shot to deliver a shot, both are effective runners in the open field and both have an infectious leadership style.
"They're both leaders, making sure people are in the right places and doing the right things," said Bomber receiver Nick Moore, who played with Reilly in B.C. and now with Willy here. "They're both great players, as you can see. There were questions about both of them when they were getting their first starts. Mike had a rough year last year but he came out on top by being the toughest player in the league and he's bounced back this season.
"And Drew, his play has spoken for itself. Two come-from-behind wins and one very impressive win at the beginning of the year."
No quarterback who wants to live through his next outing will call out the men in front of him along the offensive line. That's an invitation to being fed a steady dose of 'look out!' blocks from the big eaters up front.
But one of the juicy subplots to this Bomber-Eskimo tilt will play out in the trenches. The Bombers have surrendered 10 sacks in three games, third-most, and Willy has taken some jaw-rattling shots.
Meanwhile, Edmonton's defence is second in the CFL with 13 sacks (Saskatchewan has 14) and, as a result of that pressure, they also lead the league with a whopping eight interceptions. Odell Willis, the former Mayor of Swaggerville has three sacks, while Almondo Sewell leads the league in QB kills with five; three coming last week against Ottawa. That was enough to earn him the CFL defensive player of the week honours.
"It's a good feeling," said Sewell. "It felt good for about a day and then I got over it. It's a long season. I've got five sacks now, but I might not get any for the rest of the year. I have to keep my playing at the same level, I have to keep the same ol' routine I do every single morning: wake up at 5:30, at the stadium by 6:15 watching games... nothing ever changes about me."
Seven different Esks have already registered sacks this season as Chris Jones' defence brings pressure from all over the field.
Both Gary Etcheverry and Jones, the respective defensive co-ordinators, should consider the "unusual" and "unorthodox" labels as compliments, especially in a business where ideas are stolen and repeated so often. What makes these defences so unique is where and from whom the pressure comes on every play. That makes quarterbacks squirm and it can put offences on their collective heels. Winnipeg's parts-moving-all-over defence has been well-documented.
And Edmonton's?
"Chris Jones, he's kinda crazy with his defence," said Romby Bryant. "As much as I think I know about it, I don't know anything."
Asked what makes the Jones scheme so "crazy," Bryant grinned and said:
"Have you seen it? You never know what they're going to do. They just line up in a bunch of different places. But at the end of the day, it's football. One man's guarding you, it's either zone or man, that's pretty much what you've got to read."
The Bombers are the only CFL team to win this season when losing the turnover battle in a game. In fact, they've already done it twice this year (in the last two games) after going a pathetic 4-51 since 2008 when committing more turnovers.
What makes that significant is this: Edmonton's 13 forced turnovers -- and +9 ratio -- is by far the best in the CFL. Being that careless with the ball against this crew is like dousing yourself with gasoline and then strolling through a pyromaniacs' convention.

One of the rumors floating around this week is that EMC Corp. and Cisco Systems will create a joint venture focused on enterprise data centers. This report began circulating last week, when The Register said the two tech titans would team "to market a jointly developed product." The JV would not include VMware, the report said.
The story has spread far and wide today after a Wall Street Journal writeup. "Code-named Alpine, the venture would be aimed at data centers – the giant computing rooms that power the Internet and corporate networks – say people briefed on the effort," Ben Worthen writes. "It would specialize in installing systems that combine a new server Cisco recently started selling with Cisco networking gear and EMC storage systems, these people say."
EMC and VMware have been crucial partners as Cisco has rolled out its Data Center 3.0 vision and Unified Computing System switches and servers. This has triggered recurring rumors that Cisco might use its huge cash hoard to acquire VMware of even all of EMC.
The latest speculation focuses on the fact that UCS doesn't have a built-in storage component. The Register noted the possibility of offering customers unified support – a "single throat to choke." The Journal suggests that Cisco's entry into the server market has soured relations with IBM and HP, forcing it to turn to EMC for sales help. Network World theorizes that if a joint venture succeeds, it could then be acquired by Cisco.
We've heard from the technology press. What do you think? What advantages might a Cisco-EMC joint venture offer that can't be realized by their current partnership? Share your insights and theories in the comments.

F-22 Interceptor
a game by Electronic Arts
Platform: Genesis
F-22 Interceptor by Electronic Arts is a top notch Genesis jet combat flight simulator -- in fact it's the only Genesis flight simulator patrolling the video airways. And that's "flight simulator" not "flying game". This game isn't at all like arcade aerial shoot-em-ups such as Afterburner or Air Diver.
Fly or Die
In F-22 you really must "fly" to survive. For example, taking off, landing, and refueling in mid-air are all potentially fatal operations for greenhorn pilots. You can stall the aircraft or fly into the sun so that you're blinded by the glare. Turn too tightly and G-force slams you with blackouts and red-outs. All this can happen before anyone starts shooting at you!
Be prepared to log massive flight time. You fly in four theaters -- the United States, Korea, Iraq, and Russia -- each containing a whopping 30 missions. Create your own tactical nightmares with the Mission Generator or try the Aces' Challenge where you take on two and then four aces simultaneously.
Supersonic Sights & Sounds
The game's looks are polished and familiar. The graphics are polygon-based like many personal computer flight simulators and aerial coin-ops, but F-22 supplements the basic visuals with slick animated story sequences, sharp equipment-selection screens, nice 360-degree scans of the jet, and a moritfying "killed in action" scene.
The sounds are cool, too. Digitized vocals bark warnings and command you to shoot. Live jet engine noise, and missile thumps keep you on guard.
Video Avionics
F-22's controls produce precision flying. That's great, but at supersonic speeds it also means they're sensitive. You can pilot the jet from three views. Most of the time you'll rely on the first-person cockpit look. There's a wide-angle Heads-Up.
Display view and an external Chase view, which, too looks forward from behind the jet.
ProTip: Use the different view options. Chase is good for ground attacks. H.U.D. is good for dogfights
Give' em the Gun
The game's great attention to detail extends to the armament. Cannons are standard equipment, but you can also outfit the F-22 with six types of missiles from the real-life Air Force arsenal including Sidewinders, Sparrows, wire-guided TOWs, and television-guided Mavericks.
- TV guided missiles can be tough to control. Get as close to the target as you can before you launch them. All the hardware is essential. The action is intense when you run up against nasty waves of MiGs, choppers, mobile missile launchers, tanks, and surface-to-air missiles. Expect defeat -- often.
- To elude missiles bank hard right and then hard left Confuse heat-seekers by heading into the sun and then banking.
- In a pinch you can use air-to-air missiles on ground targets and vice versa, but in both cases they aren't as accurate.
The EA Air Force Wants You!
F-22 is a good flight simulator by any standard. Fledgling fliers will have a heck of a time trying to master the controls and fiddling with the options. However, veteran video jet jocks will go supersonic! The Mission Generator alone is inspired. Take off with F-22, you may never come down.

This fun filled, action packed, military combat game allows you take part in covert and diverse helicopter missions.
Gameplay involves flying the fictional F-119D Stealth Fighter against enemy forces. You are a fighter pilot going through wave after wave of enemies.

Get first person perspective missile views and more!
Pilot the Advanced Tactical Fighter F-22 Interceptor in over 100 different missions spanning four combat zones: Iraq, Korea, Russia, and the United States. Along your campaign you'll come across 20 types of enemy targets over land, sea and air. These include MiG-29 fighters, T-72 tanks, Hind helicopters, anti-aircraft guns, SAM sites, even gunships.
F-22 Interceptor offers a 3D environment with two different views of your fighter: an external view just behind your plane or a cockpit view complete with working displays.
Some missions involve attacking targets by day or night, landing on aircraft carriers or refueling from a KC-135 tanker. Before each flight, you'll be able to outfit your craft with various weaponry and countermeasures, such as Sidewinders or TOW anti-tank missiles. Feeling a little overwhelmed? A training mode will let you learn how to fly the craft and give you some target practice to boot. If you've mastered the combat zones, you can use a Mission Generator to create your own battles or embark on a special Aces' Challenge to put your piloting skills to the test. Need a breather? Missions can be continued via passwords.
Discuss it on forum
Andy said on F-22 Interceptor Forum:
This is a flight sim for people who do not want to spend all day reading the manual in the hope they get the plane off the ground, Or though not blessed with great graphics and sound it far from hamper's this game, It's great fun and you do not feel like a nerd with this flight sim...

So, this is what I started with when I began cooking with culinary lavender. Lavender simple syrup. I started with this because, well, it's simple!
The simple syrup is great to start experimenting with…a jumping off point. The sweet side of lavender. Drizzle it on your cake or any dessert, use it in a cocktail that calls for simple syrup or use it as a sweetener in your tea or coffee. Earl Gray with a touch of lavender simple syrup? Maybe your iced coffee toddy latte with a drizzle? A halved melon with a dollop of vanilla ice cream in the middle and spritz of lavender syrup (why not sprinkle a few flowers on the top to make it look pretty)?
Give it a go!!!
Lavender Simple Syrup
1 cup sugar–white, organic, brown…whatever you have in the cupboard
3/4 cup water
2 tbs dried culinary lavender (I have doubled this infusion when I sweeten an espresso drink)
Combine the sugar and water in a pot, stir until it dissolves. You really should have a great Pandora station on while you stir…maybe a little Adele, something you can belt out ya know. Bring to a boil. Let it boil for two minutes, then add the lavender. Take that pot off the heat and let it sit, covered for 20 minutes. Don't peek!!
I have added the lavender in the beginning and brought it to a boil as well. It can be done either way. No rules!
Strain the lavender off the infused syrup and smoosh the lavender buds as you strain. They soak up a lot of that yummy syrup.
Pour into one of your prettiest glass bottles! I love to reuse glass bottles and put a pourer on them for my syrups, oils and vinegars. They look very chic once you get the labels off, clean them up and put a pourer on them. Sexy syrup….rawr.

I continue to sense a disconnect between the perception of multichannel marketing between conference attendees, and vendors.
An attendee told me that he likes testing different concepts in different advertising channels and different physical channels. Each channel offered unique opportunities for the customer.
A vendor told me that we must offer the same merchandise at the same price in all channels. Another vendor mentioned that all customers are multichannel customers.
A speaker told the audience that products should be available in all channels, then mentioned that various items are not advertised in catalog because you cannot afford to market all products.
A vendor told me that the vendor community must lead the attendees on this issue, because attendees struggle with the multi-dimensionality of this topic.
So many attendees shared unique quirks in their business model that require multichannel marketing strategies that are fundamentally different --- different by business, different across channels, different across price points.
I become more convinced that the attendees are actually ahead of the vendors on the topic of multichannel marketing. While vendors make theoretically accurate arguments about "silos", attendees deal with the realities of a world that doesn't easily accommodate sameness everywhere. Vendors may be accurate in wishing that brand better measure multichannel activities. Attendees appear much farther ahead in testing strategies without the constraint of "sameness".

call me a hater but as usual what is Iverson doing on that list?
Any attempt to rank players is subjective, or is it objective? Yeah I would put Danny in the top 25 players, but since I don't remember whether that is subjectively or objectively, I could be wrong. At any rate, he is our best player.
Subjective...meaning that it belongs to the mind of the subject (author), as opposed to object of fact.
Granger should atleast be top 15
Strongly disagree once you get past #3. Allen Iverson is not a top 20 player anymore, maybe not even a top 50. There are not 7 players better than Dwight Howard. Chauncey Billups has been great for Denver, but he's not the 7th best player in the NBA. Steve Nash is not better than Deron Williams. Amare and Shaq are both too high.
"A man with no belly has no appetite for life."
- Salman Rushdie
Granger isn't a top 20 player.
1. LeBron James
2. Kobe Bryant
3. Dwyane Wade
4. Chris Paul
5. Dwight Howard
6. Tim Duncan
7. Kevin Garnett
8. Brandon Roy
9. Kevin Durant
10. Dirk Nowitzki

"I had to take her down like Chris Brown."
-Lance Stephenson
Danny Granger is better than all of these players. Everyone overrates Manu, Ray at 5 years younger was better than DG but not now, David West is good but not that good, and Steve Nash is declining.
At this point in their careers, I would take Danny over MOST of the people on anyone's Top 20 list. Sure there are a few no brainers, but not a whole lot.
How is Shaq #10? Sure, he's still Shaq and if he asked me in person, he'd be #1, that's for sure. But, seriously, #10? Not anymore. I think Paul Pierce and Shaq should switch places on that list.
Can't really argue with Granger's spot, though I wouldn't argue if he were higher either.
Billups and Wade should switch spots. Garnett isn't that high anymore, though he belongs on the list.
It's a new day for Pacers Basketball.
Because there are more than 20 better players.
"I had to take her down like Chris Brown."
-Lance Stephenson
I think Danny is better than Al Jefferson. On your list I do think that Pau and Yao are a little high. Pau is good now because he compliments the play of Bryant and vice-versa. If he were still with the Grizz, his value wouldn't be so high.
Don't worry, this is just my opinion, I am not trying to call you out.
If Roy and Durant are #8 and #9, than Granger is not far behind. I would argue Granger is better than Roy. Roy can't score or protect the rim like Danny. Durant and Granger are at the same level right now. Durant will be better next season.
Players below Danny on that list.
In my opinion, Granger is #14, Roy #15, Durant #13
Parker and Amare are far down on that list. Yao is right on at #12. Gasol is way overrated.
42% shooting, 29% on threes. Once upon a time, his 10+ free throws per game was the one thing haters ignored in his performance. But now he gets 6. Once upon a time, a pretty good defender when he was in the mood. Currently, he's average on a good day.
On performance, he's a 7 million dollar player at best. He might do a bit better because he can put butts in the seats. But in this economy, that's not a lock.
If he doesn't retire, his pride is going to take a hit on his next contract.
I, too, will go with the "subjective", as opposed to object of fact.
One question that arises in my mind: How does one explain the recent success of the Pacers without a "Top 20" player? Or, along the same lines, the success of the Pistons without the Answer?
One thing that comes to mind is the coaching and how both coaches adjust without their supposed "Top 20" players. It could be said that since OB has less options (sans Granger), guys who normally don't get the green light are experiencing a lot more freedom and, in turn, gaining confidence. Maybe the same could be said about Coach Curry?
Should be interesting to see the Pacers upon Danny's return and how the younger guys play.
Kobe should be first, then LeBron. But other than that, I agree with his position.
typically, when a top 10-15 player goes down to injury, the team he's on does not get better in their absence.
Does Durant play defense?
Does Nowitzki?
Is Durant a better player now?
Granger's leadership and toughness are off the charts and will be invaluable when the Ps get to the playoffs.
But he's never been a great shooter and had to be praised when his assists got into the 9 range. He always liked to play defense away from the ball, he was a homerun play defender. Loved jumping the passing lane or picking a pocket out top, also loved leaving his man to cross the court and try to backdoor steal the post feed.
The thing with all that is it's pretty individualistic and he never really was good at involving others. People said "look at his teammates" but frankly I saw Jordan make plenty of stiffs look pretty decent. AI didn't do that. Instead he just dominated the ball twice as hard.
I agree with a lot of this, Iverson was never my type of player. Fun to watch, but I'd have been annoyed if he was on my favorite team.
The year Jordan retired to play baseball, the Bulls won 55 games without him. I don't think Iverson has ever been on a team that would win 55 games without him being on the roster.
-- Steve --
I'll ignore the Iverson scenario, because I think he's a shell of his former self.
Teams in all sports lose stars to injuries all the time and keep rolling. The Celtics lost Garnett to the knee injury but have been fine. Is Tom Brady not a Top 20 player anymore since the Patriots finished with one of the AFC's better records?
I think a lot of it has to do with teams looking past them. "Oh, they don't have their star, we can rest on this one." It applies a lot more to basketball, especially at this point of the season, where some guys are running out of gas.
Also, there's the general sense the players have that they need to step up and fill the void. First it was Daniels, then Murphy, lately here it's been Jack. They know they have to play better to account for Granger being out, and combined with some teams' not taking them seriously as an opponent, it's no wonder they're able to win.
Plus, it forces the guys to run the offense without a security net, so you're going to see a better performance. Someone walking a tight rope might fall during a trial, but take away their net and I think the odds of messing up drop significantly. There's no more margin for error. There's no "feed Danny the rock," so the other teams can't just say "Make sure to cover Danny." Teams don't know who's going to step up, and it's making the Pacers more difficult to play.
Not to mention giving the younger guys some minutes, as you said.

TRENTON, N.J.–Health care products maker Johnson & Johnson said Tuesday its first-quarter profit dipped only slightly, beating Wall Street expectations, despite falling sales around the world.
The company blamed the tough economy for the sales declines, as well as unfavorable currency exchange rates, which it said pulled down overall revenue by 6 per cent.
The maker of baby shampoo, contraceptives and biotech drugs – seen as a bellwether for the overall economy – said net income for the quarter amounted to $3.5 billion, or $1.26 per share. That's down from $3.6 billion in 2008's first quarter. Earnings per share also amounted to $1.26, because the company has been buying back shares over the past year.
Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expected, on average, earnings per share of $1.22 and revenue of $15.47 billion.
Revenue fell just over 7 per cent, to $15 billion. Sales of its consumer health products, prescription drugs and medical devices all fell.
Still, the New Brunswick, N.J.-based company confirmed its previous forecast for a 2009 profit ranging from $4.45 to $4.55 per share, excluding one-time items.
Shares of Johnson & Johnson rose 85 cents to $52 in premarket trading.
Profit fell despite J&J reducing costs by roughly 10 per cent across marketing and administration, research and production.
Sales declined across all three business units. Consumer sales fell nearly 9 per cent, to $3.7 billion, and prescription drug sales fell 10 per cent to $5.8 billion. The company cited generic competition to its blockbuster antipsychotic drug, Risperdal, and lower sales of Procrit, which like other anemia drugs has been hurt by safety questions and restrictions on sales through government programs.
The medical devices and diagnostics business had the best performance, with sales down only 3 percent at $5.5 billion.
"Despite challenging economic and near-term business pressures, we continue to deliver solid financial results," Chief Executive Bill Weldon said in a statement. "We are continuing to make strategic investments in order to bring important new products to market, positioning us well for long-term growth.''

Pennsylvania lawmakers ignore debt to boost borrowing
For all the talk in Harrisburg about cutting the state's debt, lawmakers seem to find it easier to add to it.
The state House recently passed a Senate bill authorizing $1.7 billion in borrowing; a House bill that would have lowered the state's debt limit has languished in the Senate for seven months.
Interest on the $1.7 billion debt limit increase will cost state taxpayers between $2.3 billion and $2.5 billion over 20 years, according to fiscal notes attached to the House and Senate bills, respectively. The House assumes an interest rate of 3.25 percent and the Senate, 4 percent.
"At the same time we're incurring all this debt, we have huge pension needs and infrastructure problems," said state Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, R-Cranberry.
The money will go for everything from repairing bridges to buying furniture to refurbishing and fixing state-owned property. The bill authorizes borrowing $345 million for the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program, an economic development program that's been the focus of fierce debate for years.
Members of the House and Senate said they don't know exactly which capital projects will get the money. Gov. Tom Corbett's administration told them that it needed $345 million, and the Legislature authorized the borrowing without getting a list of projects needing money, several General Assembly members and staffers said.
All come from a list of economic and community development projects the Legislature approved, some as far back as 1986. Most never progress beyond the planning stage. Each has conditions that must be met to trigger the state's share of the cost — often matching money and construction progress.
"We have an apparatus in place that goes out and continually monitors these programs to make sure they are in compliance, so that we can ensure that our taxpayer dollars are being used appropriately," said budget office spokesman Jay Pagni, who works for Corbett.
Not paying that money exposes the state to lawsuits, said House GOP spokesman Stephen Miskin.
"We're under contract," Miskin said. "It was basically either pay now or default and probably be sued and pay higher rates."
Miskin said most of the projects got approval during former Gov. Ed Rendell's two terms. About 52,000 were approved during that time; the remaining 2,600 were approved earlier, according to the state's list. They included the Arlen Specter Library at Philadelphia University and the John P. Murtha Center for Public Policy at the University of Pittsburgh's Johnstown campus.
"I was opposed to the Rendell projects," said Rep. Nick Kotik, a Coraopolis Democrat who voted against the borrowing bill. "I can't support those kind of projects (such as the Specter Library) when I've got water and sewer projects that are worthy."
The Corbett administration changed the guidelines for new redevelopment projects to a merit-based system meant to prioritize the projects by economic rather than political effects. The guidelines cap annual capital project spending at $125 million and apply the criteria to existing projects.
The House passed a bill in March that would gradually lower the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program's debt limit, from slightly more than $4 billion to $1.5 billion. It would require the governor to list redevelopment projects he wants to fund before the Legislature votes on providing the money. House Republican Leader Mike Turzai introduced the bill, pending before the Senate Appropriations Committee since June. Turzai, R-Bradford Woods, voted for the capital bill.
"We all know we need debt reform," Miskin said. "We believe it can be done before the session ends."
State Sen. John Eichelberger asked why the Legislature voted to allow more borrowing when people agree the debt is too high. Eichelberger, R-Altoona, was one of two state senators to vote against the measure on June 20. It passed the House 145-55 on Oct. 3.
Low interest rates, held down by the global economic slowdown and the Federal Reserve, mean the state can borrow money relatively cheaply.
"That's like a guy who wants to sell you a car and tells you he can get you a really good deal on it. If you can't afford it, you just don't do it," Eichelberger said.
The state borrows at fixed rates, Pagni said.
Legislators put items onto the capital projects list with little scrutiny from colleagues, said Sen. Jake Corman, R-Centre County, who sponsored this year's Capital Budget Act.
"Whenever a legislator wants to authorize something for his district, everyone gives their respect to that legislator," Corman said.
Merely making it onto the list does not guarantee funding, Corman said. The governor decides which projects get money, he said.
"I don't want to micromanage what every one of 253 legislators feel should get funded in their district," Corman said. "The executive branch has the whole state to be concerned about, and they will prioritize accordingly."

"These cards are great, both in design and picture quality. They have a clean, cheerful, modern look. My only gripe was there is only a small place on the return address space so most standard address labels don't fit. I ordered a custom small address stamp instead."
"We were absolutely pleased with the quality of the cards we ordered. We requested a review of the design to make it more personalized, and the promptness of the reviewer in satisfying our needs was impressive. All of our friends who received the cards have told us they like them, and a few have requested info on where/how to get them. We highly recommend this company and their products."
"This wedding announcement was just what we wanted--simple, elegant but yet contemporary. I upgraded with rounded corners and the shimmer. This made it a little more special. I also added three photos to the back of the announcement. This was a special touch since our wedding was small and we wanted those who were not there to see some of the special moments from the evening. I ordered both wedding invitations and announcements from Wedding Paper Divas and was very happy. I researched a lot of other companies and sites and for the price the quality couldn't have been better AND I found that designing online was a breeze and very intuitive. No sweat."
"This was the perfect announcement for us. The paper stock was very nice, picture color was amazing and the overall quality was more than I expected."
"I'm an artsy gal, but not too extravagant, so I was looking for something simple yet striking for our wedding announcements, and I found it. I chose red since the date is close to Christmas, but the other color options look lovely, too. I was able to play with the fonts quite a bit, and personalized the monogram with a typewriter-style font that was very me. The weight and texture is delightful, and reminds me of handmade paper. Family and friends have complimented them, as well. Once I placed my order, I received the online proofs very promptly, and the delivery was right on time. Given the volume and the time of my order, the total price was nice and affordable."

text: Melbourne (ANI): Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia appears to have snagged a new man the son of billionaire Richard Branson. The Torn singer was spotted cozying up to 23-year-old Sam in London, say reports. The 33-year-old was one of the guests at a 100,000 pounds ski-themed party to celebrate Sams planned Arctic expedition. They are pretty besotted with each other and Nat is even talking about meeting him in the Arctic, The Daily Telegraph quoted a witness, as telling the Daily Mirror newspaper. Imbruglia recently split up with rock star hubby Daniel Johns in January after four years of marriage.
