When asked how much they'd be willing to spend to relocate an employee, 40 percent say more than $1,000 with one-third willing to spend more than $2,500 and one-in-ten willing to spend more than $10,000.
"Given the shortage of qualified workers, 14 percent of the employers we surveyed say they're more willing to pay to relocate new employees from another area to their company's location this year compared to last year," said Rosemary Haefner, Vice President of Human Resources for CareerBuilder.com. "Therefore, job seekers shouldn't be afraid to ask about relocation expenses during the interview process. The key to getting the best deal is really showing the hiring manager how much of an asset you'll be to the company during the interview portion so that they view spending money on relocation as an investment rather than an expense."
From the employees' experiences, 42 percent say they've relocated to another city at least once and 32 percent say they've relocated to another state, province or region at least once. Of those workers who have relocated for a job, 31 percent say their employer paid for it.
In terms of workers' current desires to pack up and go, 59 percent of employees say they'd be willing to relocate to another city for a new job and 44 percent say they'd be willing to relocate to another state, province or region for a new job. The top five states employees say they would like to relocate to are Florida, California, Arizona, North Carolina and Colorado.
Haefner suggests the following tips on how to negotiate a relocation package during a job interview:
• Have research on your side – Get quotes from movers and calculate the difference in the cost of living between your area and the area in which the company is located. Knowing these numbers can help you when you're negotiating with the employer because it shows them that you're interested in getting the best deal for both you and the company.
• Wait for the right moment – Wait until the job is offered to negotiate relocation expenses. Ask if the company is willing to consider including relocation expenses in the package and ask for a range of how much they're willing to spend.
• Express your enthusiasm – Don't take for granted the importance of expressing how much you want the job and how excited you are at the prospect of joining the team. When asked about the type of living accommodations workers chose when relocating for a job, 41 percent said they moved into an apartment, 36 percent said a house, 5 percent said hotel, 4 percent said a condo and 16 percent made other arrangements.
For workers who have already successfully negotiated relocation expenses into the benefits of your new job, Kevin Doyle, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Apartments.com, explains how the Internet has made it easier for people who are relocating to rent an apartment sight unseen. "Renters can view detailed photos and virtual tours of apartments, check the availability of a specific rental unit, research community information and complete the entire rental process without ever needing to step into a leasing office."
Doyle recommends the following relocation tips:
• Rent initially – When relocating to a new city or state, it makes sense to rent first because it allows you to learn more about the area you're relocating to without the commitment of home ownership. It also gives you time to get acquainted with your new job and new city.
• Purge, purge, purge – View moving as an opportunity to de-clutter by donating, recycling or disposing of those things you don't need or want.
• Stay organized – When moving for a new job, time may not always be on your side. Therefore, you need to plan ahead as much as possible. Create a file that includes a detailed timeline for the moving process, important contact information and any necessary documents.
• Keep records – From your job offer, to specifics about your relocation package, to phone numbers to photographs of your new apartment – keep detailed records of all aspects of your move. Be sure that you keep these records handy – do not include them in the items that will be transferred by the movers.
Survey Methodology
This survey was conducted online within the United States by Harris Interactive on behalf of CareerBuilder.com among 2,417 hiring managers and human resource professionals, (employed full-time; not self-employed; with at least significant involvement in hiring decisions) and 5,727 US employees, (employed full-time; not self-employed; with no involvement in hiring decisions), ages 18 and over within the United States between June 1 and June 13, 2007. Figures for age, sex, race/ethnicity, education, region and household income were weighted where necessary to bring them into line with their actual proportions in the population. Propensity score weighting was also used to adjust for respondents' propensity to be online.
With a pure probability sample of 2,417, one could say with a ninety-five percent probability that the overall results have a sampling error of +/-2 percentage points, and with a pure probability sample of 5,727, one could say with a ninety-five percent probability that the overall results have a sampling error of +/-1.3 percentage points. Sampling error for data from sub-samples is higher and varies. However that does not take other sources of error into account. This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no theoretical sampling error can be calculated.

Benziger Family Winery Names Jeff Mcbride Vice President Of Winemaking
Jeff McBride joined the Benziger winemaking team January 2, 2012 bringing with him more than three decades of experience. Most recently, McBride served as Vice President of St. Michelle Wine Estates and Vice President, General Manager of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. A long time resident of Sonoma County, McBride's experience also includes winemaking at Kenwood and Dry Creek Vineyards. Degrees in biochemistry and philosophy from the University of Colorado illustrate the duality of McBride's approach to the craft; science as well as art.
McBride believes, "Wine enhances life. Wine brings joy and stimulates communication. It is consumable art." An educator and author of a long running column on winemaking and the environment, McBride embodies the Benziger family's passion for wine education and environmental stewardship.
Benziger's previous winemaker, Rodrigo Soto, resigned in late 2011 to return to his native Chile. Since 2006, Soto led winemaking for Benziger and was instrumental in elevating wine quality and closely integrating sustainable viticultural practices with winemaking techniques in the cellar.

In a stunning assertion, Defense Attorney Paul Cambria suggested this morning during opening statements in the murder trial of Scott Doll, that Doll's own son might be the killer of Joseph Benaquist.
"My client didn't kill his friend Joe Benaquist,"Cambia said, rather he held him in his arms – mortally injured by someone else - as he took his last breath.
According to Cambia, as Joe Benaquist lie dying, he muttered to Scott Doll, "the boy, the boy."
The 'boy,' Cambria said, could mean Doll's 27-year-old son Josuha, who also had frequent business dealings with Joe Benaquist.
The three men, Joe Benaquist, Scott Doll and Joshua Doll, bought and sold cars together.
The dying statement of Joe Benaquist haunted Scott Doll, according to Cambria, the mere suggestion that his son may have inflicted the fatal beating on his friend.
Cambria told the just the jury in his nine minute opening statement that he will "demonstrate" that Scott Doll was not the person who killed Joseph Benaquist.
In a brief opening statement, Genesee County District Attorney Lawrence Friedman told the jury that when they connect the dots of the case, through the testimony and evidence, it will lead them to only one conclusion: the guilty of Scott Doll.
Today marked the first day of testimony in the trial of Doll, 46 or Corfu. He is accused of beating the 66-year-old Benaquist to death on February 16, 2009.

" Brand: SMA / Product Type: Baby Milk "
The SMA number 2 milk is a Follow-on Milk from 6 months +. According to their packaging SMA's gold system is an advanced range of specially designed formulas to help met the nutritional needs of babies and young children. Every product has a tailored nutrient profile for each stage of growth and development. I have been using this milk now for a couple of months and have been really pleased with it. In my opinion the ready to use milk that you can purchase in cartons is extremely helpful and convenient to use.
SMA 2 Follow on milk from 6 months + comes, like the other varieties, in two forms, a powder and also a ready to use liquid although I will be reviewing the ready to use liquid this time. The liquid comes in a carton and this variety has a pinky red colour on the carton to make it easily distinguishable from the other cartons which have a yellow colour for the 1st stage and a blue colour for the hungrier baby. The carton is made of cardboard and is quite strong as you can easily put one of these cartons in your nappy bag and take it out with you for the day without worrying that it will burst open in your bag and spill over everything. What I also like about the cartons is that they are very easy to open. There is a tear section on both the tabs either side and is actually marked with a scissor icon to show you where to open it. Of course it is easier to use scissors but I find it is easily tearable too!
The milk itself is quite creamy but to me has quite a bland smell and taste, it is not like real milk but that is what babies like and my little girl sure gulps it down. Another thing I also like about these ready to use cartons is that before they are opened you do not need to refridgerate them so they are extremely handy to take out with you as a back up if you should need them. If you don't use them that day, no harm, you can put them back in the cupboard and they do not go to waste. They are a little expensive to use all the time, they are 56 pence each in Boots but now and again or in the middle of the night they are very handy. Once the cartons are open you can store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours in the carton with the corners turned down.
This Number 2 milk is used to complement the weaning diet and is nutritionally superior to cows' milk. The formula includes Omega 3 and 6 LCP's. When reading the list of the ingredients you can also see that it includes lactose, milk powder and so on so if your baby does have any allergies against lactose then this is not the formula to use. I did wonder how this milk was any different from the 1st stage powder but after reading the back of the tub my questions were answered. This formula has an improved protein balance and is fortified with extra iron which are delivered in a smaller amount of milk than infant formula so baby still has an appetite for food. They recommend that it's best to use this milk as part of a mixed weaning diet. I obviously still give my baby milk but I definitely do find that she still has a very healthy appetite for food so I am satisfying all her needs whilst still giving her all the nutrients she needs.
The cartons are 250ml each but you can also buy a big 1 litre carton too but I find the little ones are much easier. Obviously I am a supporter of breastfeeding but I have found this a great follow on milk.
Wow this stuff is brilliant!
The packaging is different now to the picture up above here however it is similar, and does contain the same logo.
This milk is so easy to prepare compared to the powder however it costs probably double what the powder does.
Each container holds aorund 8-9 oz of pre made milk which just needs heating up. I normally transfer it to a bottle and heat it in the microwave then bob is your uncle and the milk is made. The milk is really good for when you baby is sleeping out perhaps at their grandparents or when you are going out for the day, it is really easy to take with you. The only downside about this is that once the carton is opened you cannot reseal it and the remaining of the container must be used within 24 hours. Great if your child is drinking 8oz at a time each feed like mine does however if they don't you might waste more than you use.
The cartons cost around 58p each however they are sometimes on offer where they are around 48-50p each.
Give it a try, its easy and definatley simple to prepare!!
Follow-on milk for older babies and toddlers. Specially made to meet their growing needs.

So you've heard "Birthday Sex" by [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Jeremih[/lastfm] and [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]50 Cent[/lastfm] but now there's "Birthday Dress" which I'm guessing you haven't heard of yet. I hadn't either until recently and was quickly left wondering who was on this track. That answer? [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Lil Playy[/lastfm], a 22-year-old rapper out of Houston.
Turns out [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Lil Playy[/lastfm] is best known for helping write [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Ludacris[/lastfm]' "My Chick Bad" even though he wasn't in the song (or video, below). Can't forget the cameo by an early [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Nicki Minaj[/lastfm].
PAGE 2 Watch Lil Playy's "Birthday Dress" Video.
The kid hasn't even released a mixtape yet! He's working on an EP coming out later this year but this song already has a video and I wanted to share it with you before summer ended. It would sound great this Labor Day weekend while you're playing in the LA sun!
Enjoy, "Birthday Dress" featuring [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Matthew Koma[/lastfm]. The rock/rap vibe reminds me of a [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Kevin Rudolph[/lastfm] meets [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]The Roots[/lastfm]. Do you hear it? Let me know if you agree, disagree, how you like it and if you have suggestions for next week's Playlist pick! Have a great + safe weekend… xoxo —S

Michael Finley scored 11 of his 15 points in the fourth quarter against his former team, and the Spurs beat the Dallas Mavericks, 98-89, last night in San Antonio in a matchup of the top teams in the Western Conference.
The Spurs leapfrogged the Mavericks to the top spot in the West. The teams have identical 45-12 records, but San Antonio holds a 2-1 advantage in head-to-head play.
The win was also the 500th for Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who took over the team during the 1996-97 season.
San Antonio led by 4 after three quarters, but extended that lead by shooting 11 for 19 in the fourth. Tony Parker led San Antonio with 23 points and Tim Duncan scored 15.
Cavaliers 92, Bulls 91 -- Ronald Murray made a 3-pointer from the right side with 3.9 seconds remaining and Cleveland escaped with a victory over host Chicago after blowing a 25-point lead. Murray, acquired from Seattle at the trade deadline, scored 11 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter as the Cavaliers snapped a five-game losing streak.
The Bulls had one final shot to win it, but Andres Nocioni missed a jumper at the buzzer.

Review for Newton County Tomorrow Inc, Covington, GA, USA
The Center which is operated by Newton County Tomorrow (NCT) is the heart of future planning for Newton County. As the county grows NCT funds the ability for county officials to meet and productively discuss the vision for Newton County. The decisions being developed by work done at The Center have encouraged me to stay in the county. I'm a proud volunteer of The Center and hope that other citizens will see the advantage for our county and city officials to have The Center as a neutral place to determine our future.

Marlins slugger Giancarlo Stanton named to NL All-Star team
Giancarlo Stanton will be the lone Miami Marlins representative at the All-Star Game as announced Sunday night.
Stanton, who leads the National League in home runs (21) and RBI (62) and ranks in the top 10 for average (.308), was named an All-Star reserve for the second time. In 2012, he was unable to participate in both the Home Run Derby and Midsummer Classic because of arthroscopic knee surgery.
The 24-year-old entered the final week fourth among NL outfielders in voting. Since the game is being held at Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins of the American League, the club may use him as the designated hitter.
Stanton is already scheduled to compete in the derby after being asked by captain and Colorado Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki.
Just two Marlins have ever been voted in by the fans: third baseman Gary Sheffield (1993) and shortstop Hanley Ramirez (2008-10).
Two Miami players with All-Star worthy numbers were left off the team.
Casey McGehee leads all NL third basemen with a .320 average and 52 RBI. He also has the best fielding percentage at the hot corner and the most hits (108) in the NL.
Milwaukee Brewer Aramis Ramirez was voted the starter, while Cincinnati Red Todd Frazier was named the alternate. McGehee was not in the top five for voting.
The 31-year old is, however, a NL candidate for the Final Vote, which runs through this Thursday at 4 p.m. ET.
Right-hander Henderson Alvarez improved to 6-3 with a 2.27 ERA — the fifth lowest in the NL — with a win on Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Alvarez allowed just one run on five hits over seven innings. The Marlins have now won a team record 10 straight starts of his. He also has three complete game shutouts to lead the majors.
The last time the Marlins had multiple All-Star representatives was in 2010 when Ramirez and right-hander Josh Johnson made it.

Cameras in handsets evolving from novelty to DSC performance, despite constraints
Post a comment
Where are camera phones headed? We have seen the camera in cell phones start life as a novelty, a mere toy that people use for taking snapshots - not because their camera phone produces high quality pictures but because it is there. It is there with you at most times and especially when you want to capture a special moment.
But we are seeing gradual changes transforming the mobile camera's image quality enabling it to better operate in a variety of lighting conditions and come closer to DSC (Digital Still Camera)-like performance. It still won't compete directly against a good point and shoot 5-8 megapixel DSC for perhaps another year or two but bearing in mind this is a camera the size of a sugar cube using a tenth of the power and costing only $15-20 (3-5MP), it is amazing we get a decent picture at all.
Today, the consumer's taste in digital pictures is driven by their experience of mid-range point and shoot DSCs. Many of these are CCD based devices of 5, 6 and 8MP resolutions. It's reasonable to assume that mobile cameras will have 'arrived' once they produce pictures of comparable quality to this perceived norm.
It's not just about higher megapixels
But remember, it's not just about gradually increasing resolution alone. Though increased resolution offers the chance for a smoother, less pixilated picture, the overall image quality is determined by several factors including low apparent levels of noise, which goes hand in hand with a good low light performance, well adjusted white balance that results in more appealing, vivid colors.
For instance, a higher resolution camera may actually produce a poorer picture quality because it has worse sensitivity, poorer dynamic range producing shallow contrast, just as a lower resolution camera may produce brighter, more pleasing and better contrast photos. Several features will play their part in improving camera phone image quality over the next few years: auto focusing, optical zoom, better color management, stronger flashes, more sophisticated image processing and of course higher resolutions.
Special constraints for phone cameras vs. DSCs
In many ways the camera phone is advancing along a path similar to that of digital still cameras (DSCs). In some ways it isn't. Here are some constraints that mobile camera system makers must heed carefully to ensure their success and which makes the mobile camera's market path a bit different from DSCs, both in pace and direction.
Cell phones are small, some as thin as 8mm, and the camera module must be small to fit in a very small space. Typically, a camera module may be only 8mm x 8mm for a 3 MP camera. This means the sensor die must be tiny. This trend continues reducing sensor and module dimensions. For example, Kodak's latest 5MP can fit into a 8mm x 8mm module whereas previous 5MP generations needed at least 10 x 10mm. CMOS sensors are much smaller than CCD ones and are therefore the preferred choice. DSCs use CCD and CMOS based sensors.
Power consumption
As with most other features on a cell phone, the camera system must consume minimal power to conserve battery life. This power consumption has to be low in both standby and active camera modes. A typical consumption in active mode may be as low as 120 mW. If the unit has a flash, it must not drain too much power. This is why most cell phones have LED based flashes which consume less power than Xenon flashes but also usually only illuminate about a 2-3 meter distance. This is not really strong enough for a bright picture in, for example, a shot of friends in a dimly lit restaurant.
The need for low power consumption is also why cameras in camera phones are CMOS based and not CCD based. How many times have you replaced your DSC alkaline battery cells or even replaced them with higher performance rechargeable Lithium ion cells?
Produce good results in dark conditions
Many people take camera phone pictures at home, in the office and in the evening. This places a requirement of being able to produce good, low noise images in low light conditions -- which CCD sensors are better at doing than CMOS sensors, but CMOS sensors use far less power and are much smaller in size. Most DSCs have the same or more stringent low light performance requirements but because they have less constraining power consumption specifications they can use CCD sensors and xenon flashes which need a large capacitor (which goes against camera phone size constraints) and use more power.
Mechanical robustness
Cell phones must survive a stringent mechanical drop test so the camera module and its sensor must be capable of withstanding strong mechanical shocks. They must pass the famed cell phone drop test that tests in positive and negative directions in the x, y and z dimensions from a height of no less than six feet. When was the last time you dropped your DSC from your shoulder? Did it survive the crash? My cell phone survives several falls a week and its camera still works!
Consumer market supply chain and volume production
Cell phones are amongst the highest volume consumer electronics devices in the industry. Mobile phone cameras must possess a highly resilient supply chain that withstands sudden consumer demand surges for cell phones. A high performance, proven supply chain is critical. An example is that all camera components have a dual supply source for exceptional reliability and can ramp from say a million units a month to say 3 million units per month in as little as three months while maintaining excellent manufacturing consistency and high yields.
The manufacturing consistency and quality also has to be very high in volumes of millions if units per months, much higher than even the highest volume DSCs.

Businessman Robert Phang says that Cecil Abraham must clarify if the latter is the senior lawyer involved in drafting PI Bala's second statutory declaration.
KUALA LUMPUR: MACC advisory panel member Cecil Abraham must clarify whether he is the senior lawyer allegedly involved in the second statutory declaration (SD) by P Balasubramaniam.
Making the call at a press conference here, businessman Robert Phang said he was told that Abraham was the only lawyer with the Tan Sri title.
"Cecil Abraham is a very senior lawyer and is known to be a close advisor of Attorney General Abdul Gani Patail. I have always questioned his impartiality.
"Why is everyone so afraid to mention that the Tan Sri lawyer is Cecil Abraham and that the legal firm is ZulRafique and partners?" he said.
"Is it because they are afraid to be sued by the most senior lawyer in the country who sits in the most powerful bumiputera legal firm in the country?"
But Phang stressed that he could not confirm whether Abraham was the lawyer allegedly involved in the second SD, and added that the onus was on the latter to clarify the matter.
Carpet dealer Deepak Jaikishan had recently revealed in an interview that a "Tan Sri" lawyer and his son had been allegedly responsible for the preparation of Balasubramaniam's second SD.
The second SD reversed Balasubramaniam's first SD, released the day before, which implicated Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak in the murder of Altantuyaa Shaariibuu.
Deepak had claimed that Najib had chosen the "Tan Sri lawyer and his son" to prepare the SD before Balasubramaniam was told to sign it.
Balasubramaniam had also claimed in 2009 that the SD had been prepared by another lawyer, whom he did not meet and who did not consult him when drafting the document.
Although Deepak let slip the lawyer's name in the recent interview by PAS organ Harakah, the name was not revealed.
Similarly, lawyer-turned-activist Haris Ibrahim did not reveal the lawyer's name in his blog, although he had disclosed the latter's identity in a letter urging the Bar Council to probe the claims.
Close to the AG
"What is the difference of making all these references and then afraid to mention the name? I think it is unfair on the Malaysian public and Abraham," said Phang today.
"Let it be said openly so that AG Gani Patail and Abraham can state their case."
Phang, who is chairman of the Social Care Foundation, revealed that even prior to Deepak's interview, he had already openly stated his objection towards Abraham's objectivity.
"On my part, I have openly stated my opposition against Abraham's objectiveness during some deliberations of the MACC where he defended AG Gani Patail and where his firm benefits largely from government legal work," said Phang.
"In the MAS case, AG Gani Patail even consorted during Hajj with one Shahidan Shafie, a proxy of Tajudin Ramli, which cast grave suspicion why the Attorney-General's Chambers was reluctant to prosecute Tajudin.
"Yet, AG Gani Patail was cleared by the MACC Advisory panel which caused me to question the objectivitiy of Ramon Navaratnam and Cecil Abraham."
At that time, Tajudin was being investigated for graft following Malaysian Airlines' (MAS) losses of some RM8 billion during his tenure, according to media reports.
Ramon had told news portal The Malaysian Insider after the meeting with Abdul Gani in 2011 that the AG had gone out on a limb to prove his innocence.
Lawyer not at MACC meeting
In another development, the MACC Operations Review Panel (PPO) chairman Hadenan Abdul Jalil said that fellow panelist Abraham was not present and did not take part in the panel's decision on Nov 8 to stop investigating Balasubramaniam and Deepak over the second SD.
"The panel members agreed with the decision of deputy public prosecutor to stop the investigations," he said in a statement today.
He added that the probe on the matter was discontinued because there were no other witnesses to support the claims made by the main witnesses, whose credibility was also in question.

BBC buys Spielberg war drama
The BBC is to buy the most expensive television drama ever made, Steven Spielberg's Band of Brothers.
The multi-million pound war drama will be shown on BBC One next year.
Band of Brothers is a ten part series which centres upon an elite United States corps fighting in World War II.
BBC One controller Peter Salmon said Band of Brothers was an expensive project.
"It was available to everybody," he said, "but we successfully bid for it."
"It's not something we went into lightly. We thought a lot about it.
"The scripts read really well. It was warm and moving. We've explained such a lot about the First World War already so we thought we should look at the second.
Spielberg has been writing, producing, directing - even sometimes acting in - films since the late 1950s.
In that time he has won almost 30 awards, including two Oscars and three Emmys.
In February he was chosen to receive a lifetime achievement award from the Directors' Guild of America.

To make the decline push up even harder, you can do the one-leg variation by holding one leg in the air the entire time you are doing these push ups.
Step 1: Start in the standard decline push up position, where your hands are on the floor and your feet are on a step. Then raise one foot into the air so only one foot is on the step. Keep your body stiff and straight.
Step 2: Lower your body down to the floor until your chest brushes the ground. Keep your elbows tucked in by your sides. Your elbows should go down and back, not flare out to the side.
Then push back up to the starting position.
It is best to use a 2-0-1 cadence for push ups. That is, take 2 seconds to lower your body down, 0 seconds rest at the bottom, and 1 second to push back up.
Do at least two sets of these push ups, alternating the raised leg each set.

Illinois Woman Murders Her Three Kids in Shooting Spree
A Livington County, Ill. woman's murder-suicide on Friday has left family, friends, and neighbors stunned as Christmas rolls around the corner.
Sara McMeen, 30, first shot her live-in boyfriend Daniel Warren, 29, and then took the lives of her three children, Skyler Lemke, 8, Ian Lemke, 7, and 10-month-old Maggie Warren – before taking her own life.
With the exception of Warren, all the bodies were strewn across the backyard as a neighbor witnessed the whole thing from her home.
Neighbors told authorities the shootings began immediately after the children got off their school bus, reported the Huffington Post.
The Associated Press reported Annelise Fiedler, a neighbor, ran outside her house upon hearing the first shots fired and stopped when she saw McMeen standing over what appeared to be her dropped baby
"She looked at me and said, `No, everything is not all right,'" after Fiedler asked if McMeen was well.
She then shot the baby multiple times, reported the Huffington post.
The other children had been shot in the head, with Skyler receiving several shots. Warren was hit in the back and in the neck.
McMeen then turned the weapon on herself and fired into her neck with a .40-caliber semi-automatic handgun, the same gun used to kill the others.
The town's sheriff Martin Meredith released a statement that read, "still putting together this tragic incident" and further implored they were looking for people who had spoken to either McMeen or Warren that day.
Police are still unsure of the possible motives, but are investigating the matter.

Let's not get emotional about our guns. After all, they are just a bunch of shiny objects that shoot bullets and other projectiles with only one ultimate purpose — killing.
Instead, let's get emotional about our children. They also have a purpose: to grow up and have happy, productive lives. To do that, they have to live.
There is a reason so many Americans have jumped across the line that has been drawn against reasonable restrictions advanced by those who believe the Second Amendment is just one part of our Constitution.
And that reason has a name: Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The citizens of the United States have long endured the occasional but inevitable savagery that is unleashed on our fellow Americans from time to time. Our ability to rationalize isolated incidents of "people gone mad" has overcome whatever survival instincts we may feel as we go to a shopping mall, movie theater or university campus.
Not any more. At least not right now. Bullet-riddled bodies of 6-year-old children – our 6-year-old children — have a way of moving even the most hard-hearted, callous and uncaring among us. Now, we're in a position of having a conversation about why such tragedies are tolerated in the land of the free and home of the brave.
And, yes, the conversation is often riddled with emotional outbursts by both those who don't want any more dead babies and those who believe that there is a better way than restricting the kind and quality of gun ownership.
That is the way we do things in this country. Our Founding Fathers were very careful to set up a form of representative government that allowed for both the emotional response to that which is wrong as well as the cool, deliberative process that allows for emotion to have its place alongside reason and responsibility. It is called lawmaking and, at best, it ain't pretty.
We also have a president who is elected to represent all of the people and to act on our behalf to both follow the law and advance our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It is pretty simple, after all.
So, what's the problem in the current debate about what we must do, if anything, to prevent as best we can the bad and crazy people from slaughtering the good ones?
The problem is that for too long the inertia — a hallmark of American democracy — has continually defeated whatever ideas have been advanced to further the cause of society acting in a civilized way. And during that time, those who advocate for unfettered access to guns — all manner of them — have had their way with both their arguments and their financial ability to persuade.
But money and loud voices aren't enough anymore. Why? Because the 20 children and six people who died are screaming loudly: Enough is enough.
We have an obligation and a responsibility to the next generation. We hear everyday — because it is true — that we are shirking that responsibility by saddling our kids and grandkids with mountains of debt that will make their lives less comfortable than our own. We are told daily that doing this is both wrong and immoral. I agree.
So, if burying our children under mountains of debt is wrong, immoral and un-American, can it be any less immoral to bury them for real under mountains of dirt just because we have our collective heads buried deeply in the sands of a time that no longer exists?
Of course not. The Second Amendment, for whatever purpose our Founding Fathers saw fit, cannot ever be allowed to be the shield behind which cowards, crazy people and others just hell-bent on finding government conspiracies can hide. Not when our children are dying at their desks.
Yes, there are many this past week who are screaming bloody murder that President Barrack Obama would use children to make his point that it is time to act, to do something to break the inertia that allows mass murders to continue. The news channels are full of people crying out that emotions have no part in a national debate about gun safety, gun control or whatever other term you want to use for the effort to provide sanity to policies that put the United States at or near the top of every list for gun violence.
I don't know if what President Obama has proposed regarding assault weapons, ammunition clips, gun show loop holes, registration of weapons, mental health and school security is enough or too much to help. What I do know is that it is a holistic approach that could very well work. At least to reduce the great majority of massacres that have become a part of our everyday lives — and deaths.
And I also know that those who answer the question, "Why shouldn't we enact some reasonable laws to try to stop this madness?" with the simplistic "Because it is our right," are doing nothing to advance our single, most compelling obligation as Americans and as human beings.
It is your choice what you choose to read: the Bible or the Constitution. In either case it is absolutely clear that we have the obligation to protect and defend the lives of those who come after us.
In fact, lest there be any confusion, read them both. Then let's get to the doing of our jobs.

Needed: Middle name for Sage!
I am expecting our first, a boy, at the end of September. We both loved the name Sage even before we got pregnant, so picking the first name was the easy part!
We are planning to go with two middle names. The second one is a family name, starting with a Ch. The baby's last name starts with a W. Both of them are two-syllable, emphasis on the first syllable. Both names contain hard consonants (Ch, p, t, b, k) and not too many soft ones - there's one l in there, but no n or m, for example.
So now we are looking to find a good first middle name that goes well with Sage. The main issue I'm running into is that it seems hard to find a name that doesn't clash in sound with Sage's hard ending. I like soft, ethereal names that don't sound too masculine and if they are obscure, that's totally fine with me (although it's not a requirement). I'd like to find a mn that ideally has some soft sounds like l, m, n to complement the hard consonants in the rest of the name. Names starting with a vowel seem to flow well with Sage as a fn, but it's not a requirement. I think Sage (with the rest of the names) sounds best when paired with a 3- or 4-syllable first mn.
We like Elijah or Elias and I think they work, but I'd like to find something a bit more unique than that. Right now they're on our list of "safe choices".
The solstices are an important date / event for my fiancé and me, so I've been trying to find a mn that might reflect that - with not much success so far. I've been looking for names possibly starting with Sol-. do you think those would flow with Sage? My tongue stumbles a bit when trying it out.
I'd appreciate lots and lots of ideas, since I'm now going in circles! Feel free to throw anything my way - words, foreign language, invented names.. extra points for names with a beautiful meaning!

rkrd, thanks for these!
I do like mythological names too and have been looking around among Greek, Roman, Egyptian and Nordic gods.. but I've only done a superficial search so far, so I might have missed some good candidates!
Avery works very well, alas, it might be a bit too popular for me right now. I was also thinking of Averil.. but I think that one means "boar battle" if I remember right! :P

Gorgeous Sonam Kapoor and Strikingly handsome Fawad Khan promotes Khoobsurat on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 7. Sonam in particular stole the show with her enthusiasm and of course her extravagant attire. Fawad, on the other hand was his reserved self.
Khoobsurat, is a romantic film directed by Shashank Ghosh and produced by Rhea Kapoor, Anil Kapoor and Siddharth Roy Kapur. The film is ready to hit the screens on 19th September and the lead actors have been promoting their film on various platforms already.
Fawad and Sonam were on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 7, the dance reality show that is currently in heating up with the final five contestants battling it out with each other. Sonam was seen also shaking a leg with the judges of the show Madhuri Dixit, Karan Johar and Remo Dsouza, while Fawad was comfortable in the backgrounds letting his female lead take the spotlight.
Jhalak.. 7, currently is at it's final stage with the top five contestants, Shakti Mohan, Mouni Roy, Karan Tacker, Akshat Singh and Ashish Sharma competiting against each other to win the season.
Recently, on Jhalak.. Sophie Choudhary got eliminated. The model, singer and actress had a face-off with Akshat and lost her final battle on the dance reality show. There has been a lot of talk regarding this unfair judgement on the show as well.

The school district and employees' union work to educate on its impact on education.
By JEFFREY S. SOLOCHEK, Times Staff Writer
Published January 15, 2008
LAND O'LAKES - With voting already under way, local Pasco school organizations are trying to make sure people understand exactly what Amendment 1 to change the state property tax structure means, from their perspective.
The school district and the employees' union have released slide presentations designed to give the district staff, as well as their family and friends, the details of the proposal and an idea of what its impact will be on education if it passes.
And whether you look at the low-key school district version, which twice states that it's not advocating a position, or the more politically charged union effort that clearly opposes the initiative, one message comes through pointedly: Education stands to suffer.
"We tried to be as factual as we could ... without the emotion in it," superintendent Heather Fiorentino said of the district effort. "But the facts are what the facts are."
Specifically, if voters support what amounts to a $20 monthly savings in property taxes, the Pasco County School District could lose $67.5-million over the next five years. And, as the slide presentation points out, 85 percent of the budget goes toward salaries and benefits.
"The reduction to the district's general fund that is being proposed in this amendment will have a significant impact on the district's ability to maintain salaries, offer competitive benefit packages and keep pace with school construction," the district presentation states.
The more highly charged union version opens with a political cartoon showing a Trojan horse labeled "property tax reform" sitting outside a suburban style home, with the homeowner shouting, "Honey! Come see what's at the door! A gift from the Legislature!"
Beneath it appears the sarcastic comment from the union: "Drumroll please. Brought to you by the same people who brought you property insurance reform."
The presentation does not purport to be neutral, using charged language to talk about the "dire financial situation" that schools will find themselves in if voters approve the amendment.
"We negotiated the best raise possible considering that the School Board had been cut $6.6-million. Passage of this amendment will most certainly adversely affect future raises," the union states. "Our elected leaders profess to want a world class education system, yet they continue to underfund public education. Florida languishes near the bottom in nearly every category related to education funding and shamefully ranks 50th in expenditures for elementary and secondary schools per $1,000 of personal income."
Each group has asked school-level leaders to show their materials to all district employees and is encouraging everyone to vote.
"We want people to be informed," union negotiator Jim Ciadella said. "It's education information to tell people what we believe the impact of the amendment, should it pass, will be."
Fiorentino, who plans to vote against the amendment, said when government - school district or city or county - scales back services, it often takes longer to bring the services back than it did to cut them. The amendment could adversely affect all areas of local government, she said, and voters at the very least should understand that before they vote.
"It's not just about the school system," she said. "It's about the community."
The school district presentation is being distributed throughout the schools and could appear on the district Web site this week. The union presentation is available on the union web site, useponline.org.
A multimedia campaign supporting the amendment, featuring Gov. Charlie Crist as the primary spokesman, also is under way.

Focus Audio Signature Model 88 loudspeaker Measurements
With an estimated B-weighted sensitivity of 88dB/2.83V/m, the Signature 88 will play quite loud with only a few amplifier watts. Certainly the 30W Aleph 3 had no problem raising decent sound pressure levels in my room. The impedance (fig.1), however, drops to a low 3 ohms at 65Hz, with a punishing combination of 4 ohms and -50 degrees electrical phase angle just a little lower in frequency. Although the impedance remains above an amplifier-friendly 7 ohms above 120Hz, the Model 88 still needs to be driven by a beefy amplifier. Note that the shape of the impedance curve means that if the big Focus is used with an amplifier having a high source impedance, the response will be tilted-up. There are a couple of very small wrinkles in the impedance traces, at 350Hz and 650Hz, possibly indicating the presence of cabinet resonant modes of some kind.
Fig.1 Focus 88, electrical impedance (solid) and phase (dashed) (2 ohms/vertical div.).
The "saddle" at 26Hz in the fig.1 magnitude trace indicates the tuning of the port, this very low in frequency, implying good bass extension. The actual acoustic response of the port, shown to the left of fig.2, indeed does peak just below 30Hz, but actually extends an octave higher in frequency before beginning its steep descent. The woofer's output is the trace with a minimum-motion point at 29Hz. It actually peaks up significantly at 65Hz—the frequency of the impedance minimum in fig.1—before rolling off steeply and crossing over to the midrange unit at 180Hz. The latter actually starts to gently roll off below 300Hz. The upper crossover frequency is in the region of 2kHz; a sharp spike at 4kHz in the midrange unit's output is suppressed by 12dB or so by the crossover. There is a similar spike in the woofer's response at 800Hz. Again, this is suppressed by the crossover's low-pass filter.
Fig.2 Focus 88, acoustic crossover on tweeter axis at 50", corrected for microphone response, with nearfield woofer and port responses plotted below 1kHz.
Fig.3 shows how all the individual drive-unit outputs add up at a distance of 50" on the tweeter axis, averaged across a lateral window of 30 degrees. The very flat response meets excellent ±1.5dB limits between 200Hz and 7kHz, with slightly more energy apparent above that frequency, reaching +2.6dB at 14.3kHz. In the bass, the woofer region peaks up as expected, then rolls off to reach -6dB (relative to the level at 1kHz and 100Hz) at a low 25Hz. However, this is a little higher than suggested by the specification of -3dB at 22Hz.
Fig.3 Focus 88, anechoic response on tweeter axis at 50", averaged across 30 degrees horizontal window and corrected for microphone response, with complex sum of nearfield woofer and port responses plotted below 300Hz.
The Signature 88 offers wide, even dispersion in the horizontal plane (not shown), the top octave progressively rolling off with frequency with off-axis angle once you get more than 20 degrees or so off-axis. (It rolls off a little earlier on the side away from the tweeter.) This behavior always correlates with well-defined, stable stereo imaging, something I did note in my auditioning. Vertically, the speaker also has good dispersion, the measured response not changing significantly over a ±10 degrees window centered on the tweeter axis.
In my listening, the spatially averaged response measurement (fig.4) reveals the woofer region to be elevated by 4dB or so with respect to the midband. This, of course, was not unexpected from my auditioning. The crossover region between the woofer and midrange is also a little depressed. But otherwise, the in-room response is very flat, with just a slight excess of energy apparent in the mid-treble. Again, this is something that doesn't surprise me.
Fig.4 Focus 88, spatially averaged, 1/3-octave response in JA's room.
In the time domain, the step response (fig.5) reveals that the tweeter and midrange are connected with the same positive acoustic polarity, the former leading the latter by a fraction of a millisecond. The woofer's step response can't be seen on this graph, but it too is connected with positive acoustic polarity. The Focus's cumulative spectral-decay or waterfall plot on the tweeter axis (fig.6) is commendably clean, which correlates with the speaker's exceptional treble clarity. A small amount of delayed energy, however, can be seen at 4kHz (the cursor position), which I believe is due to a cone resonance in the midrange unit. While this is well down in level, it is associated with a slight step in the on-axis response that might be associated with the degree of added presence I noted in my auditioning.
Fig.5 Focus 88, step response on tweeter axis at 50" (5ms time window, 30kHz bandwidth).
Fig.6 Focus 88, cumulative spectral-decay plot at 50" (0.15ms risetime).
Finally, despite the large area of the Signature 88's side panels—which, with a less well-constructed enclosure, might be thought to indicate the presence of high-level, low-frequency vibrational modes—they are well-braced and rigid. Fig.7 is a waterfall plot calculated from the output of a simple plastic-tape accelerometer fastened to the side panel above the woofer. A single midrange mode can be seen at 305Hz, but this is well-suppressed. There are some other modes present, but as these are also very low in level and higher in frequency, it is unlikely that they will have any subjective effect. The front baffle also had a mode present at 650Hz, but this too was well down in level.—John Atkinson

Senate President Russell Pearce picked Pima County Republican Richard Stertz to serve as the third member of the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission.
Stertz, who runs a faith-based organization geared toward getting churches more involved in the community, won out over Benny White, another Tucson Republican. The commission is charged with redrawing political boundaries using new census figures.
Stertz, who had some late taxes and some earlier civil litigation that was not disclosed on his application, was placed into the mix after Pearce and House Speaker Kirk Adams challenged some members of the initial selection.
"The fact that I was able to select Mr. Stertz is also a direct result of our court challenge. This was a critical issue in law to allow real choice for the IRC. The law is clear and having real choices is critical for Arizona and the process," Pearce said in a statement announcing the selection.
He also called Stertz "fair-minded and steadfast" and predicted he would serve the commission well.
The fourth pick now rests with Senate Minority Leader David Schapira.
The four commissioners then will select a fifth, presumably an independent.

The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, the nation's first public transit system and its oldest subway, does not always wear its history well. It can be a frustrating maze. It's at times dirty and leaking, constantly under construction, and in places monstrously bleak. Still, we love it. Kind of.
Though T officials have pledged to have the system fully prepped for July's visiting delegates, there are still a host of quirks along the line that lost Charlie. Once understood, they can make maneuvering throughout the city, Cambridge, and its environs as easy as, say, winning a war without an exit strategy, electing a president, or performing an at-home angioplasty.
Here, then, are some T tips to help you get around. If you get lost, just ask a passerby or one of a host of promised T ambassadors. If the Red Sox have won within the past month, you should get a polite New England answer, which may confuse you all the more.
First and foremost, the T uses "inbound" and "outbound" as directions.
"Inbound" refers to any train headed into downtown Boston and one of four stations: Park Street on the Red Line; State Street on the Blue Line; Downtown Crossing on the Orange Line, and Government Center on the Green Line. Within those stations, "inbound" and "outbound" are, thankfully, not used.
Once you're in the subway system, it's a free ride wherever you want to go until you leave the turnstiles. (But not at Copley, where there is no free transfer from outbound to inbound or vice versa. Use Arlington instead. And this doesn't apply to the Silver Line, which is really a glorified bus route anyway.)
Token price: $1.25, still one of the cheapest rides in the nation.
And if you're depending on the train driver to shout out your stops in clear and concise language, don't. The T has a notoriously lousy public-announcement system, and the PA systems on the trains are even worse, sounding like Darth Vader holding a glass to his speaker-thing while dealing with a cold. Keep your eyes on the stops and the maps posted in the cars.
Oh, yeah -- since Boston is the original home of the Puritans, the T shuts down early, with trains and buses making their last runs by 1 a.m. There is a Nite Owl bus service that runs above some of the system's major subway lines, but after some recent cutbacks due to lack of ridership, the runs are sketchy at best, at times turning into buses filled with loud people swaying even when the bus is standing dead still. Better to take a cab.
Green Line
The only line that deals with Boston's notoriously obnoxious street traffic, as well as one of the most popular lines in the system, the Green Line is at times a frustrating mess. It can be unbelievably crowded, street traffic often plays havoc with the schedule, and the sophisticated new cars have a history of derailing, though the problem appears to have been solved.
Named the Green Line either because the subway and trolley lines connect Boston with its leafy suburbs or in honor of the city's Emerald Necklace of parks (accounts differ), the line has four branches designated by letter: B goes to Boston College in Newton; C goes to Cleveland Circle in Brookline; D goes to Riverside in Newton; and E goes to Heath Street in Jamaica Plain.
Is there an A line? There was, but the service was discontinued in the late 1960s.
On this line, nothing is standard. Some outbound service is free, you board at the front of the trolley if there's no ticket booth, some drivers will take dollar bills, others won't. Be patient. If you're confused, you have two options: Ask someone for help, or continue to be confused -- maybe even babble a bit -- and you might get a free ride.
Since North Station will be closed during the convention, bus shuttles will be used to transfer passengers to and around the FleetCenter and to the nearest Green Line train at Haymarket.
For stops at Government Center, Park Street, Boylston, Arlington, and Copley: Take any train.
Hynes Convention Center/ICA and Kenmore (the stop for Fenway Park): Take B, C, or D train.
Prudential and Symphony: Take E train.
Coming back to Haymarket, where the line will end as a security precaution during the convention: Take D or E train.
See a train with a red line through the letter? The train only goes part-way along the designated branch. Ask the driver or a T rep where the last stop is.
Red Line
The line gets its color designation because, at one time, it terminated at Harvard Square (and crimson is Harvard University's school color). It goes well past Harvard now and into neighboring Somerville and bustling Davis Square. The Red Line going outbound across
the Charles River to Cambridge offers a stunning view of the Boston skyline, even for us jaded commuters.
Most Red Line trains stop at all stations between Alewife in North Cambridge and Andrew in South Boston. Major destinations: Harvard and JFK/UMass, a shuttle trip from UMass-Boston and the JFK Library.
The last transfer point between the Braintree and Ashmont branches on the southern end of the line is JFK/UMass.
Blue Line
Named because it goes underwater, the line connects Boston with East Boston, Logan International Airport (you actually have to take a shuttle bus to the airport, but the station is brand new), and Revere.
If you like betting on horses and dogs, the Blue Line connects Boston to both Suffolk Downs and the Wonderland Greyhound Park.
Orange Line
So named because the line once ran above Boston's Washington Street, formerly Orange Street. It goes through the South End and into Roxbury and Jamaica Plain toward the south, and north to Charlestown, Medford, and Malden.
No stops at North Station during the convention, thankyouverymuch. The nearest place to catch an Orange Line train is a few blocks away at Haymarket.

First-graders receive free books
Rockland — Every first-grader in Maine, including students at South School, recently received a free book and bookmark from the Maine Education Association.
South School students received the books June 13.
A total of 14 different titles were distributed and students were encouraged to read their own book and then share with a classmate.
"What's so wonderful about these free books is my kids can take them home. For some of my students, I know they don't have access to books in their home and as their teachers I am always looking for ways to get them to read and learn when they are outside of the classroom. These books give them that opportunity," said South School first-grade teacher Mary Tolman in a news release.
The books were funded by a Read Across America grant received by MEA paid for by the National Education Association and Renaissance Dental. The cost was $10,000. MEA paid for the bookmarks.

Does any one have any suggestions for locked antler fighting whitetail forms. they are both going to be shoulder mounts that will be on the same wall or in a corner on oppisite walls. I also would like to know what forms or manufacturer would be suggested. Any help here would be appreciated.
Return to Gamehead Taxidermy Category Menu
Form Bk-01309064 And BK-01309083 You will find them in the latest catalog on page 28. If the racks are exceptionally large you may need to alter them a bit for wall clearance
I first set up a 4x4 3/4" plywood easel then I pick the best form I can find for the capes I have, pose does not matter, then I cut the heads off and attach the antlers to the heads so that you have the two locked sets with foam heads attached. Then I secure the neckless mannikins (shoulders) to the easel with a couple of screws from the back and I rebuild/resculpt the necks with hunks of form and heavy wire so that the heads meet up, I rasp and fill in with poured foam necks so everything is perfect. Of course reference and measurements all all used. Then I unscrew the mannikins from the easel and attach one of the mannikins to my regular mounting stand with the second head hanging out there in space and I mount them as usual one at a time. When I have them mounted I just rehang the mounts on the plywood easel to dry and groom. This system works great for racks that will not come apart like big trophy racks of muleys, whitetails or even elk. You can use quality mannikins and really complete a nice job that fits tight to the wall when completed. You can contact by email direct if have any questions. firstname.lastname@example.com
I seldom find forms thatll fit the pose, as all antlers lock differently, it seems. I do one or two sets each year. I wish I OWNED a nice set though...HINT HINT! hahaha
