The cost of the project was not disclosed.
Located near I-59 at Exit 65AB , the hotel is set to break ground within the next year, with an anticipated opening in early 2011. The four-story, new construction hotel will contain 90 guest suites, 1,000 square feet of meeting space, outdoor grills and an outdoor pool.
"Since launching the Home2 brand in January, we've received an overwhelmingly positive response from the development community," said Bill Duncan, global head, brand management, Home2 Suites by Hilton. "We're excited to bring one of our first hotels to Hattiesburg."
The brand was officially launched at a hotel industry conference in late January. To demonstrate the strong interest from the hotel development community, 10 submitted franchise applications were announced at the event. Since then, Hilton has received approximately 50 additional franchise applications. This Hattiesburg application is one of the first to be fully executed and approved.
On average, Home2 Suites will be comprised of 90 percent studios and 10 percent one-bedroom suites, at 323 and 509 square feet, respectively. Public space will account for approximately 4,200 square feet.

The fate of new varieties of cotton, corn, wheat and sugarcane crops developed by both public and private sectors hangs in the balance; as the National Bio-safety Centre – an apex body with a mandate to test and approve new crop varieties – has been almost dysfunctional since August 2011.
Sources say the National Bio-safety Centre, tasked with approval and commercialising of genetically modified (GM) crops organisms, does not exist as a proper entity as the developmental project expired in August 2011.
"Since then, private and public research organisations – including multinationals which have invested billions of rupees in developing high-yielding GM crop varieties as per provisions of the National Biosafety Rules 2005 – await the restarting of the regulatory process," a government official said.
The National Bio-safety Centre, established to provide the requisite set-up for implementation of bio-safety rules and guidelines, serves as the secretariat of the National Bio-safety Committee (NBC) and the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) – the main regulatory bodies responsible for testing and approving GM crops and organisms in the country. The NBC also authorises companies to import seeds in order to conduct field trials, and makes the final regulatory decisions after following a rigorous process laid down in the committee's rules and regulations.
"The National Bio-safety Centre calls a meeting of the TAC and NBC on a need basis. The NBC has not held its meeting since February 2011, which has delayed the regulatory process required to test and approve GM crops," the official said; adding that the TAC, which works under the umbrella of the NBC, is also not holding its meetings on a regular basis. Since April 2011, the committee held its last meeting in February 2012.
The official said that applications submitted by various public and private sectors organisations seeking approval of different GM crops were yet to be reviewed by both the NBC and TAC.
"This administrative controversy has also led to commercialisation of eight new BT cotton varieties in 2012 by different private and public sector organisations without clearance from the National Bio-safety Centre. This issue needs to be addressed by the government immediately, so that agriculture does not suffer and farmers get access to the best available technology in the form of GM crops," the official added.
Prior to the devolution of powers to provinces under the 18th Amendment, the National Bio-safety Centre – whose executing agency is the Pakistan Environmental Protection Agency (Pak-EPA) – was working effectively under the Ministry of Environment. After devolution of the Ministry, the National Biosafety Centre went to the Ministry of Planning and Development, while Pak-EPA was transferred to the Capital Administration and Development Division. In November 2011, the NBC came under control of the National Ministry of Disaster Management; and most recently, in April 2012, it was transferred to the Ministry of Climate Change.

am I a candidate for Lake winter shoes/boots?
My doctor insists I don't have Raynaud's syndrome, but I have the most cold-sensitive fingers and toes of anyone I know.
Luckily my lobster mitts keep the fingers warm even at 20 degrees. But I have not yet figured out the piggies. After 30 minutes of riding at temperatures below 45, the rest of the foot feels fine but the toes are cold. I typically ride with cleats (but see below). Things I've tried:
* larger shoes with two pairs of wool socks (one thin)
* larger shoes with one pair of socks to make sure I'm not cramping the toes
* wiggling the toes as I ride
* plastic bags over feet
* felt liners (to prevent heat loss through cleats)
* regular winter boots on platform pedals (i.e., no cleats)
* booties over shoes over double socks
and various combinations of the above. the only thing that works reliably for me is the chemical toe warmers - they are great but inconvenient and a bit pricey over time as I commute an hour each way most days in the winter and use a pair per day (keep them in a baby food jar at work).
I'm wondering whether I should plunk down a couple hundred bucks for the Lake winter boots. they are pricey, but if I could avoid the numbness that would be wonderful.
If you insist on riding with clipless pedals then they may help, but depending on the type of riding you do and the performance you expect and demand, you could try flat pedals and winter boots like Sorels.
Yeah I'm trying to stay with cleats. My commute is long enough that it makes a difference, and I like to do distance rides on my road bike in the winter.
Plus, those Sorel boots are expensive enough that I might as well spend a bit more!
Even at around -12C I've found that my Lakes aren't keeping my toes warm enough for my entire commute (about an hour). In my case it might partially be circulation related as I'd get toe numbness when cycling even when its warmer. I moved the cleats back but haven't had a chance to try them out again at a similar temperature. At -20C today they definitely weren't cutting it.
The boots weren't as large as I thought they'd be, so I can't go with a thicker sock without them being too tight. If you do decided to get a pair, you'd be well advised to find a store that carries them so you can try them on. Bring along the thickest socks you think you'd wear with them.
I probably wouldn't ride much below -10C...how do you find them at that temperature?
I haven't used them at temps above -10C, and from the look of the forecast I probably get a chance anytime soon.
I know they're warm, but Sorels are so big and clunky I have a hard time imagining riding in them.
I bought my felt pack boots for $30.00 and they are not nearly as big and clunky as Sorels and will even fit my mtb clips and straps.
They have a -30 rating and I have added a felt insole to improve on their cold rating and with a base sock and merino sock have ridden at -46C with toasty toes.
My friend suffers from having very cold toes and rides through the winter with Sorels that have a -80 rating.
A boot like this is great for cycling in the winter... as are some hiking boots and Ski boots (the walking kind).
I havent had the weather to try them out yet, but i bought a pair of neoprene socks, i got the 2mm pair, and bought some silk liner socks to go under them from what ive read is they are wind and water proof and will keep you comfy down to about 0f. I would imagine if you b\put a merino layer in there too they would be super warm. But i had to go a size bigger on my shoes to fit them. My problem is i have a hard time riding with something tight around my ankle so wearing winter boots for me hasn't really worked and in my experience hurt my ankles. I got both the neoprene socks and silk socks from cabelas i think the neoprenes were 13$ and silk 9$
We rode in about 8 to 15 degree temps yesterday and most people's toes were getting cold by the time we were done including the 3 or 4 people that had Lake boots on. Lake's aren't really designed for weather that cold and I'll ride when it's much colder than that. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm skeptical that they're going to help all that much.
I use winter cycling shoes, wool socks and neoprene toe covers down to about 25-30F. Below that, I wear waterproof hiking boots (without aggressive tread) that are rated at -1F. In the winter, I use Shimano M324 pedals, so I can clip in on one side and use the platforms on the other, depending on the temps. The coldest I ride in is the low teens. Below that, which is exceedingly rare in the DC area, I drive to work.
Here's what I did: Bought a pair of Lake CXZ 301 winter road boots. One size larger to accomodate extra sock(s). Expensive, but my commute is 40 mi rt, I'm making good money and I didn't want to eff around. Once I got the cleats set I took a small peice of styrofoam filled in the cleat openings and covered everything w/a piece of duct tape. Then placed the barrier insole back inside the boot. This moderately keeps the cleat/pedal assembly from becoming a heat sink. Then I wear a standard cycling sock and a knee high wool sock w/an added wind barrier built into the sock. Smartwool makes the ones I've got. The fact that my lower leg stays warm for much longer keeps my toes from getting cold. Before this system I was experiencing frozen toes no matter what I did. Also, I think the fact that my pulse points are kept warm helps as that's where one's blood is closest to the surface.
The same thing works for my fingers as I keep my gloves up over my wrists to cover the pulse point there. They never get cold, anymore. I've got mittens w/liners for when it's really cold.
I guess it all adds up. Good head and trunk layering. Windblocking shell, etc. Helmet cover. 100% wool everywhere possible. As mentioned above, I've never tried silk socks, but would imagine the natural fiber wicks really well. Hope this has been helpful.
i just bought the lake mxz302s and they are awesome for the cold. i did have to get 2 sizes larger though. i got a 13(us) wide which is a 47 i think . i normally wear an 11 in sneakers 10 in boots . i have road shoes by sidi that are 45. got the lakes for $200 at bicycleeverything .com modernbike.com was pretty cheap too.
Lakes + plus chemical toe warmers=Very warm.
I was planning to try out a pair of Toasty Feet aerogel insoles in my Lakes, but Polarwrap's customer service might foil my plans. Despite their outrageously high USPS shipping prices to Canada, I got an email from them wanting even more.
Disappointing after reading threads about them giving people coupon codes for free shipping, matching walmart prices etc. No wonder they can't get anyone to stock their product here.

I started out this season prepared to find Lil Kim at the bottom of my favorites list and her comment about dedicating her first dance to "her girls" in jail didn't help much. I admit that her having been in jail DID affect my attitude towards her at the beginning.
That said, she's certainly won me over. She can DANCE, and she's very, very good. Who am I to look down on someone who has made mistakes and paid their dues?

Dearest OM,
I wanted to thank you so much for the help you gave me six months ago up till now.
Six month ago, I was very desperate as I gained weight and could not find a way to start loosing it, but more than this, I had so many aches in many parts of my body, that I did not know what was the reason for them and how to cure them (my physician did not succeed to solve it). Needless to say that when I felt like this physically, it influenced me mentally; I felt depressed, I lost my enthusiasm, I did not feel like getting up in the mornings and start the days, did not want to meet people and basically was not happy and nice to be with.
By chance I heard from a close friend about the Power green mix, the green powder that you sale, and I contacted you for buying it. Since then I take this powder on a daily basis, but this was only the beginning. I then started coaching with you and even though I live out of the U.S, you were willing to guide me in my eating habits my diet and more...I can't explain how rapidly things have changed. I was shocked. After two weeks(which were not easy but possible) of doing exactly what you told me to do I was not aching anymore, I lost 6 kilo, and more than this miracles, I felt happy, with a lot of energy, wanting to do things and succeeded to cope with all that I had to.
You were so nice to me at first and since then, so professional with what you suggested me to do, explained everything so I understand what was wrong and why I have to do what I do. You were always very patient and always available and supportive, when needed. I had so many questions, so many doubts especially at first, until I saw the impact of the new way of eating on my life. I am so grateful to you and to the new way of life you introduced me to.
I always recommend people the green powder, even if they don't do any other change in their eating since I believe it has a huge effect by itself."
With lots of appreciation and love
Yours always

Thank you my dear, I warmly recommend to anyone who wants to live a healthy life and need a professional and truly caring guidance, to enjoy the wonderful opportunity to be guided by you. Thank you-with all my heart, love, Lena !!!
"I really love this website, through which I and my friends order wheat grass, Barley grass and Alfalfa (The "power green mix"), I personally drink this mixture in the morning on an empty stomach. It helped me reduce cholesterol, blood lipid that the doctors determined that my body produces and there is nothing they can do about it, helped stop the progression of my osteoporosis. Also as a result of the improved metabolism it created I shed a few pounds too. The grass is filling and gives a lot of energy. My friends too indicate that drinking the greens helps solved some of their health problems and makes them feel very good."

On Being the Only Woman In the Room
It's a conversation about numbers. It really has to be in order to make sense.
Today, I'm attending an indie game night hosted by a local game development group. In my hometown, game development is a great thing -- a supportive atmosphere with plenty of peers, all working towards a common goal. I have no complaints.
Except for one.
There are seven people here, and I'm the only female. I attended PAX Dev, where women made up what felt like only 10% of the conference. I went to another local game development meeting late last month. There were twenty-five people in the room; I was the only female.
There is a growing situation in gaming, one that has recently gained a lot more attention. You can credit Anita Sarkeesian if you'd like, but honestly it's not about her. It's a situation about the way that women (and minorities) feel they are being treated, portrayed and ignored. But much like the deadreckon blog post that inspired this post, I don't feel angry about this situation. I feel lonely.
I'm always counting. It's a subconscious thing, but you know when you're the minority in the room. When someone starts talking about the portrayal of women in games and looks at you because you are currently representing all womankind.
One of the first times I met my game development group, I spent an hour getting ready. I don't even know how to do my own makeup and since I work from home, spend most of my time in sweatpants and t-shirts. I knew, even primped, that they would not care. Why would they? But I also knew that I was going to be the only woman there. I was representative, whether I wanted to be or not.
There's a joke, a sad joke, about how easy it is to go to the bathroom at game development and tech conferences.
There isn't even a line in that picture. There is no one there. That doesn't make me angry, it makes me feel alone.
People want to talk about why there are fewer women in tech and game development jobs. Sometimes they make it sound like it's all about the big things -- like when the president of Harvard says that the reason that there are less female scientists at elite institutions was because of the "innate" differences between men and women.
They ignore the smaller moments. The ones where you are in a room full of people and know that you're a novelty. The moments where you can feel the weight of your gender like a heavy coat. Deadreckon talks about it like this:
Over the years, other people's words and actions pile onto your shoulders. You feel enormous pressure to pretend that nothing bothers you, because you don't want to give others more power to hurt you, or upset people you care about or make them feel uncomfortable.
So you don't say anything, you try and ignore it, and the result is an ever-present sense of isolation that chills your enthusiasm and makes you defensive.
I'm a feminist, but I don't want to make a big deal about it. I don't want to make a big deal out of the fact that I don't think having a vagina makes me less capable. Because it doesn't.
Anger isn't going to solve anything. It isn't going to make more women developers, it isn't going to make the industry a safer place for women in general. I'm not sure what will.
Chai Chien LiangSeptember 10, 2013, 9:55 amContributorIt's important for you to keep going, eventually you will find other ladies (I'll pray for it, that bathroom queue is scary)
Mech-Phree_1557September 10, 2013, 6:34 amFeatured ContributorGood article. I was listening to NPR a couple weeks ago and they were discussing why more woman aren't in the science and engineering field. One of the host on the show attributed it to them loosing interest during high school.
I definitely know the feeling of being the only "one" of yourself when you are at some gaming event. It definitely can feel lonely. I made an article similar to this one in the aspect of race and if it plays a role in video games which this reminds me of. Anyways this was a good article and a great read!
The Ian MSeptember 9, 2013, 7:35 pmColumnistWow, that's really depressing. :(
Amanda WallaceSeptember 9, 2013, 7:47 pmFormer Staff EditorIt wasn't intended to be that depressing, but it's what came to mind.

To whomever it may concern,
In some answers in this site I find that a HIV test can be conclusive after 12 weeks, somewhere I find 3 month or 90 days. I also find that after 3 month/12 weeks the 97% of the people has seroconversation (so 3% can be false negative).
My doctor told me, to be 100% sure I have to have a test after 6 month. But on this site I read that a result can be conclusive after 12 weeks/3 month.
I have a negative result after 12 weeks and I`m a little confused.
1. Exactly how long should I wait to get a conclusive result?

Despite privacy rollbacks that have angered users, Facebook's growth has continued; but although users continue to join, that growth rate has slowed, CEO Mark Zuckerberg has acknowledged.
"We saw our exponential growth rate continue for a very long period of time, and it still does at a super-linear rate, though not quite 3% a week any more," he said in an interview with Inside Facebook. Last year, the social networking site's user numbers went from 150 to 350 million. Currently, there are just under 500 million monthly active users, he said.
Gawker's Ryan Tate pointed out that because Facebook is leveraged using venture capital, its backers "will surely be concerned about any significant deceleration," and any possible future privacy scuffles with users aren't likely to help.
However, Facebook is looking to other markets to help boost its growth rate, the Financial Times reported today. Zuckerberg told the Cannes Lions advertising festival that Facebook won't reach the one billion user mark this year, but things are "looking really promising three to five years out."
China, Russia, South Korea and Japan are the only markets where Facebook is not bigger than local social networks, but those countries are reaching a tipping point. There are now more than 1 million users each in Japan, Korea and Russia, and users numbers double every six months in Russia, according to the FT.
When Inside Facebook mentioned that Facebook's revenues for 2010 are estimated to be between US$1 billion and $1.1 billion, Zuckerberg responded by saying only that "it's really hard to predict this stuff," but noted that if predictions are low or high, Facebook corrects them, because inaccurate estimates can cause problems.

Sooooo, the fall preview for Neiman Marcus just hit the web waves, and it has none other than PUMPS written all over it! Yep, as far as I can tell the Fall 2011 trends are pointing to rich reds & purples, leopard love, round-toe and peep-toe too. From Jimmy Choo, to Tory Burch--my faves are splashed all over the NM page of fall finds. Here's a chic peek at what's the come. What's YOUR fave?
The Brian Atwood leopard print platform pump is topping my list of lovelies today--tall and chic and insanely gorgeous with any fall outfit! I just love the history on shoe designer guru Brian Atwood--a Chicago native, this style guru studied art and architecture until he wound up in the presence of Gianna Versace, becoming the first American designer Versace hired. And the rest is history (and good shoes), folks! Love his "old Hollywood meets modern European" designs.
I just dig the flared + funky heel on Miu Miu's suede peep toe heel, don't you? Sold in a decadent wine color or a sexy black suede, your legs will look long, long, long...watch out Heidi Klum! The nearly 5-inch heel helps a bit with that (wink!).
Did someone say candy? I thought I heard it! Well, London-based designer Charlotte Olympia Dellal sure did--this striped suede platform pump of Charlotte's reminds me of my old favorite Candyland game, or even a sweet pinwheel lollipop--all 5 1/2 inches of this heel is pure, unadulterated platform. Looks like a heel for one of the Kardashians, doesn't it?! So sweet!
And probably more on my 'affordable' side of the fall trends list is Rachel Zoe's suede platform pump. Not only is Ms. Zoe one of my favorite fashion divas, but she has impeccable style that would never do ya wrong! This almond toe, crocodile-embossed leather stands tall and towering (for us shorties), perfectly fit to pair with black skinny jeans or that posh pencil skirt. Wow, and check out the back of this baby!
Happy day to you--and get yourself ready to pump, pump, pump it up come fall season!

Welcome to a holiday edition of Sunday Supper where this week we are featuring Thanksgiving Leftovers! You know you're gonna have them, and you know you can only eat so many slapped-together sandwiches before you want to pull your hair out. So we are here to give you creative and delicious ideas of what to do in the days following Turkey Day!
As soon as I heard today's theme, I knew exactly what I wanted to make. You're probably curious as to how making mustard could possibly count as a Thanksgiving leftover, but I promise, it does! In my family growing up, we weren't all that big on transforming leftover turkey, so it would sit in the fridge in food storage bags, and one year in I believe late elementary school, I got the idea to take those cold shredded turkey pieces and eat them straight, dipped in yellow ballpark mustard.
Okay, seriously, it's one of the best things you'll ever taste. I don't know what it is, but it's just soooo darn good! I have so many fond memories of sneaking into the fridge late Thanksgiving night, or the night after, and plowing through a bag of turkey, dipping each piece in yellow mustard, while watching TV or chatting on the phone with a friend. I was such a fiend for this little tradition of mine that one year we had fewer leftovers for some reason and I dipped into a stash of turkey reserved for a soup, and got in a bit of trouble. It was worth it, my friends.
I could never convince my parents or sister of the merits of this little snack, but I have been able to convince Matt, and I hope I've encouraged all of you to give it a try too. For the record, Matt absolutely loves it and actually looks forward to it all year long.
So this year, the Sunday Supper team gave me a perfect excuse to make mustard from scratch, which I'd never done before. It's very easy and the results are fantastic! Just let it sit at room temperature for about two to three days before using it. That's about how long it takes to mellow into a "normal" mustard taste. Before that, the mustard flavor is strong to the point of almost horseradish spice levels. Personally, a bit much for my palate. But after a couple days, it was perfect.
Be sure you check out my Sunday Supper gang and their wonderful recipes for repurposing Thanksgiving leftovers! And do try my mustard trick, even if it strikes you as odd. Let me know what you think, I'd love to hear from you!

{One Year Ago: Indian-Spiced Cranberry Chutney}
1 cup cold water
3/4 cup yellow dry mustard
3/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt or kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup white distilled vinegar
Place the water, dry mustard, salt, turmeric, garlic, and paprika in a small nonreactive saucepan and whisk until smooth. Cook the mixture over medium-low to low heat, stirring often, until it bubbles down to a thick paste, 30 to 45 minutes. Please do this in a well-ventilated kitchen, or at least open your windows.
Whisk the vinegar into the mustard mixture and continue to cook until it's thickened to the desired consistency—you know, the usual prepared mustard consistency, which ought to take anywhere from 7 to 15 minutes.
Let the mustard cool to room temperature. Transfer the mustard to an airtight container, cover, and keep at room temperature for 2-3 days, then refrigerate for up to 3 months. The mustard will be quite pungent the first few days, but will mellow with time.

HAYWARD — Police are searching Memorial Park for a transient who reportedly raped a woman walking her dog on the park trail.
The woman reported the crime at about 1:15 p.m. today, and police began searching the lower section of the trail, Hayward Police Lt. Reid Lindblom said. Police dogs and a helicopter are being used in the search.
The woman said the rape had occurred about 15 minutes earlier, near the trailhead at 24176 Mission Blvd., behind the Hayward Plunge and near All Saints Cemetery, Lindblom said.
Police said the assailant was described as a white man in his 30s, 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighing about 150 pounds, with brown hair and about three to four days' beard growth. The woman believed her attacker was a transient, Lindblom said. He noted that the woman was not otherwise injured, but he had no further details.
Memorial Park is a narrow greenbelt with a hiking and riding trail that starts behind the Hayward Plunge swimming pool on Mission Boulevard and follows a creekbed up the hillside.
Anyone with additional information can call the Hayward Police Department at 510-293-7000.

WASHINGTON, May 20 (UPI) -- The Supreme Court agreed Monday to decide whether Connecticut's version of "Megan's Law" -- which gives the public access to a registry of convicted sex offenders who have been released from prison -- is constitutional.
People across the country, especially those with children, have relied on sex-crime registries to tell them if convicted sex offenders are living in their neighborhoods.
Now that public access is under siege and could fall victim to a challenge before the nation's highest court.
A lower court has ruled the key provision of the Connecticut law unconstitutional because it does not require the state to prove the convicted offender continues to be dangerous.
The continued dangerousness of a sex offender is one of the main factors used to justify the sex-crime registries.
A ruling by the Supreme Court in this case, which should be heard next fall, will apply across the country.
Encouraged to do so by federal law, all states have some version of Megan's Law on their books. The first such law was enacted in New Jersey and named for 7-year-old Megan Kanka, who was sexually assaulted and killed in 1994 by a repeat sexual offender.
Connecticut's version requires the registration of anyone convicted of a crime in four categories: criminal offenses against a minor victim, non-violent sexual offenses, violent sexual offenses, and felonies committed for a sexual purpose.
Persons convicted of violent sexual offenses are registered for life; the rest are registered for 10 years.
Everyone who must be registered is required to provide the state Department of Public Safety with his or her name, fingerprints and other identifying factors, a photograph, criminal history record, address and a blood sample for DNA purposes.
Convicted violent sexual offenders also must supply information on any mental health treatment, and verify an address every 90 days.
All those being registered have to notify the state of a new address within five days. They must also tell the registering agency when they temporarily reside in another state, and must submit to having a new photograph taken any time the state requests it.
The state Department of Public Safety compiles all that information into a central registry and shares it with local and state police, the FBI and agencies in other states.
Under the law, the DPS also must make the registry available to the public. Connecticut does this primarily through its "Sex Offender Registry" on the Internet. The registry can be reached through the Web pages of several television stations as well as the state's Web page at state.ct.us.
The database is searchable by using zip codes so the public can find out which convicted sex offenders are living in their neighborhoods.
Sometime before May 1999 the state added a statement to the registry that said the DPS has "not considered or assessed the specific risk of reoffense ... and has made no determination that any individual included in the registry is currently dangerous."
The statement also warned anyone who uses the registry to "injure, harass or commit a criminal act" against someone listed would be criminally prosecuted.
One registry enrollee, identified in the case only as "John Doe," challenged the law in February 1999, saying it violated the "due process" guarantee of the 14th Amendment because it deprives him of a "liberty interest" -- his reputation and status under state law -- without a meaningful hearing.
He also claimed the law violated the "ex post facto" ban in the Constitution because it subjected him to punishment under a law that was not in effect when he committed his crime.
A federal judge granted "John Doe" summary judgment -- ruled in his favor without a trial -- on the due process claim, but said the effect of the law was not punitive enough to violate the ex post facto clause.
Because of the due process problem, the judge issued an injunction preventing the state from making the contents of the registry public, but not preventing the state from compiling the registry.
A federal appeals court agreed.
"We hold only that (Doe) and the members (of his class of registrants) are entitled to the opportunity to have a hearing consistent with due process principles to determine whether or not they are particularly likely to be currently dangerous," the appeals court said, "before being labeled as such by the inclusion in a publicly disseminated registry. We make no judgment as to what form that process should take."
Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal then asked the Supreme Court for review of the Doe case, which has been combined with a similar case filed by "Samuel Poe."
The Supreme Court accepted the combined case Monday in a one-line order.
(No. 1-1231, DPS etc. vs. Poe and Doe)

text: First as you can tell I am new to the site. Been reading it for awhile but just registered today to vent a little. My wife recently purchased a 2005 V6 Mustang. Well tonight on her way home the car died. It has a whopping 830 miles on the clock. It will idle but that is it. If you try to move the throttle pedal it does nothing. SO I suspect the ECM or maybe something in the fly by wire system is a miss. I hope this is not a sign of things to come. She really loves her new car but I was a bit leary on buying it being a new model and all. But hey she makes the money. Anyway I am just curious if anyone else has had any similar issues with thier new cars?

Because that's what the United State Air Force is there for…no, wait?…
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has obtained new documents from the United States Air Force detailing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's use of United States Air Force aircraft in 2010. According to the documents, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), Pelosi used Air Force aircraft for 43 flights from January 1 to October 1, 2010. According to documents previously uncovered by Judicial Watch, by comparison, Nancy Pelosi logged 47 flights in the prior nine-month period, April 1, 2009, to January 1, 2010.
The most recent documents uncovered by Judicial Watch include a Passenger Mission Activity chart detailing all of former Speaker Pelosi's flights January 1 to October 1, 2010, as well as detailed shopping lists for some flights, flight authorization forms, Mission Expense Records and internal Air Force correspondence related to the flights. Among the highlights from the documents, obtained pursuant to a FOIA request filed on September 10, 2010:
Pelosi used the Air Force aircraft for a total of 43 trips, covering 90,155 miles, from January 1 through October 1, 2010. The Air Force documented in-flight expenses for 22 of these flights totaling $1,821.33. The Air Force did not provide expense information for the remaining 21 flights.
Former Speaker Pelosi received chocolate covered strawberries as a birthday surprise on a March 26, 2010 flight. According to one internal Air Force email sent on March 25, 2010: "The speaker's office is requesting egg salad sandwiches on wheat toast with fruit (watermelon, etc) for desert [sic]. It's the speaker's B-Day tomorrow so we're also asking for something like chocolate covered strawberries (dark chocolate preferred)…" The immediate response to the email from another member of the Air Force staff: "Copy all. We'll plan something for the birthday and take care of the meal."
According to previous documents uncovered by Judicial Watch, the former Speaker's military travel cost the United States Air Force $2,100,744.59 over one two-year period — $101,429.14 of which was for in-flight expenses, including food and alcohol. For example, purchases for one Pelosi-led congressional delegation traveling from Washington, DC, through Tel Aviv, Israel to Baghdad, Iraq May 15-20, 2008, included: Johnny Walker Red scotch, Grey Goose vodka, E&J brandy, Baileys Irish Cream, Maker's Mark whiskey, Courvoisier cognac, Bacardi Light rum, Jim Beam whiskey, Beefeater gin, Dewar's scotch, Bombay Sapphire gin, Jack Daniel's whiskey, Corona beer and several bottles of wine.

I have found a very interesting link about Polish lonely brave-men who fight with polish corrupted court system. Some cases last even 10 years like you can read in the link beneath and sometimes judges proclaim break that lasts...about 5 years. And in one case that lasted such a long time a barrister retired even and refused even to take part further.

Today's announcement of childcare subsidy, up to the value of £2,000 per kid under the age of 12, is welcome news. As The Spectator argued last week, this is perhaps the smartest single move the Chancellor can make – too many highly-skilled women want to work, but cant afford to as they'd face Europe's highest childcare fees. And then the Treasury has to spoil it all by lying about the policy. The government website has this to say:
The first thing parents need to know is that the scheme is not 'tax-free childcare' at all. So how on earth does the Treasury justify claiming otherwise? Its explanation is below:-
'For every 80p you or someone else pays in, the government will top up an extra 20p This is equivalent of the tax most people pay – 20% – which gives the scheme its name, 'tax-free'. The government will top up the account with 20% of childcare costs up to a total of £10,000 – the equivalent of up to £2,000 support per child per year.'
So for 'most people' the payment (and it is a payment, not a tax refund) will be the same as the income tax they pay. But this is not the same as making it tax free. For a start, it doesn't refund the other taxes on wages: employers NI, the NI paid by workers directly. Nor will it exempt the parent from paying the taxes for hiring the nanny, which can work out a third of their wage. And you can receive the cash even if you don't pay income tax at all.
And if you're one of the 4.5 million dragged into paying income tax at a higher rate than 20p in the pound, this policy will offer nothing resembling tax-free childcare.
Also, note the slippery use of language 'which gives the scheme its name' – as if this was a baptism ceremony and it decided to call this policy 'Tax-Free Childcare' rather than 'George' or 'Michelle'. Could RBS describe a service as "free" if it intended to charge a million or so of those who used it? Sure, some companies do use some artistic license when selling their products – but you can't stretch the truth when selling financial products in Britain. Not any more. Only in government do such distortions remain.
Peter Oborne wrote a very good book about these kind of lies. And I use the word advisedly: either a policy is tax-free, or it isn't. It's a binary divide. To claim it is, when it's not, is a lie rather than an exaggeration. The millions hauled into paying the 40p rate will not be given tax-free childcare – but the government wants to mislead them into thinking otherwise before election day. No10 has even made the lie into a Twitter hashtag:-
Now, this matters because the government imposes tight regulations on the financial services industry. If a bank sold a policy as being 'tax free' when it wasn't, they'd be guilty of misselling and they'd be prosecuted by the Financial Conduct Authority – and rightly. If tomorrow's press refers to this 'tax free childcare' then you can file an online complaint to the Press Complaints Commission under the accuracy clause. They'd find in your favour. If a supermarket advertised 'tax free childcare' and it wasn't tax free, they'd be done by the Advertising Standards Agency for telling porkies.
But if the Tories put up a mendacious poster, and you called up the ASA to complain, you'd be told: sorry, they don't apply their rules to politicians:
'For reasons of freedom of speech, we do not have remit over non-broadcast ads where the purpose of the ad is to persuade voters in a local, national or international electoral referendum. Complaints about political advertising should be made directly to the party responsible for that advertising.'
And good luck to you complaining 'to the party responsible' about a political porkie. I called HM Treasury earlier on, and asked how they justified using misleading language that they'd prosecute banks for. The response? 'That's an interesting observation'. No more.
And I can see it from their perspective: who's going to complain about little lies like this? Sure, they'll get some hassle from a few lowlife bloggers. But will the broadcasters pick up such a relatively small point? Will the newspapers? It's pretty unlikely.
This is a small example of the culture of political lying which grew in the Labour era, and has never quite buried by the Tories. The decision by the Statistics Authority to chastise politicians who abuse statistics is a step forward. But no one will admonish ministers for a non-statistical attempt to mislead voters – in this case, the 4.4 million who pay the 40p tax rate.
Now, I'm not saying this is a big issue – it's a relatively small one, it's just everyday spin. And, again, this is a good policy – probably the best thing George Osborne will do all year. But it has been sold using mendacious spin, the spin that would not be tolerated in any other industry in Britain. It's time that our ministers complied to the standard of accuracy that they so piously set for others.
UPDATE The below government infographic further explains shows how the system works. Notice how the phrase 'tax free' is dropped inexplicably into the middle. You pay in £4, the state (i.e., the taxpayer) contributes £1 – even if you don't pay tax.

Stunning ScenesNov. 16, 1999
High-definition movie a brilliant Baylor investment
Last weekend Baylor premiered A Most Significant Journey, the high-definition wonder that chronicles the university during perhaps its most exciting weekend, homecoming.
Directed by Fred W. Miller and Randall Paris Dark, the film uses the cutting edge of technology to capture the spirit of Baylor. Beginning next year, President Robert B. Sloan Jr. will travel nationally, presenting the film to alumni and potential students.
Without a doubt, the film is a victory for Baylor. As the film is shown around the country and on television stations beginning to dabble with high-definition programming, the university will receive attention from a previously untapped group of people. The stunning visuals in the film are sure to draw a wealth of positive publicity for Baylor.
But perhaps the most impressive and redeeming quality about the film is the high-definition equipment and technology. A Most Significant Journey was filmed entirely in high definition, and will be presented to audiences using a state-of-the-art projector and a custom-built 18-foot by 32-foot screen.
The images from the projector are strikingly clear--they represent a window to the future of television and film.
A Most Significant Journey manifests the telecommunication department's 10 years of hard work in the innovative field of HDTV. The department will be one step ahead of the rest as the broadcast industry increasingly adapts HDTV into its markets. This step ahead is just as valuable a marketing tool as the film. People who see the film will be impressed with Baylor not only for its rich tradition, but also for its willingness to take a chance on brand new innovations in the field of film making.
Technology and the beauty of Baylor's campus join hands to paint a gorgeous picture of life at Baylor in A Most Significant Journey. The film can be a source of pride not only for those who produced it, but also students and faculty who learn and work at Baylor every day.

Movie odd couples
Updated 3:05 am, Sunday, June 8, 2014
It has long been held in Hollywood that opposites attract ... audiences. Especially in buddy-cop movies, the oldest of saws is the ill-matched partners who come to respect and even love each other. "21 Jump Street" and its new sequel, "22 Jump Street," represent just such an odd-couple bromance.
The first film paired comedy veteran Jonah Hill and action hero/romantic lead Channing Tatum as clumsy nerd Schmidt and dim BMOC Jenko. Not only do the characters become buddies, the actors did as well:
"When you're friends with somebody, you don't really think of how different you are," Tatum says. "I think we both just love film and each other - in a very non-(sexual) way."
The new movie, however, continues to make hay with their contrasts, with Schmidt and Jenko now assigned to a college campus and falling in with just the crowds you'd expect. To be sure, "22" draws its humor from a blatantly meta sensibility, frequently commenting on the folly of making sequels and lampooning rom-com formulas in the blocky body of a bromance. Still, much mileage is to be had from what one partner can do that the other can't, physically or intellectually.
This odd-couple formula has been around forever, even among historical figures. One historical set was Groucho Marx and T.S. Eliot - mutual fans and pen pals from 1961 until the brilliant-but-controversial poet's death in 1965. Marx later said they both loved cigars, cats and puns. But in film, most bromances follow the real-life Max Schmeling and Joe Louis model - "First bitter adversaries, then respectful friends."
The most storied early movie example is the longtime pairing of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. And of course, there's Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau in "The Odd Couple" (with mad props to Tony Randall and Jack Klugman for their TV iterations). All six of those actors mirror their characters' disparate personas with their contrasting body types, just as Hill and Tatum do.
Here are some memorable comic screen mismatches - leaving out most of the cop-flick examples such as "Lethal Weapon," "48 Hours," "The Other Guys," etc., because there are just too many of them.
But we'll start with one:
Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy
"The Heat" (2013)
-- They're so different because: Bullock's FBI agent is a tightly wound perfectionist, and McCarthy's Boston cop lets it all hang out, baby - including letting bad guys hang out, upside down, off fire escapes.
-- But they're really the same because: Darn it, they're both such good cops. This one is noteworthy mostly because whenever it feels as if McCarthy is off the leash, her improvs soar.
Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon
"Harold and Maude" (1971)
-- They're so different because: He's young; she's old.
-- But they're really the same because: They're both outsiders, iconoclasts with morbid obsessions. This is a beautiful, quirky love story. If you haven't seen it, you should.
"Rain Man" (1988)
-- They're so different because: Cruise is young, slick, handsome and a total jerk. Hoffman is sweet but also an autistic savant.
-- But they're really the same because: They're brothers.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito
"Twins" (1988)
-- They're so different because: One is a fast-talking schemer with stunted physical and emotional growth. The other is an impossibly muscular innocent who could use the first one for preacher curls.
-- But they're really the same because: They are brothers. Picking up a theme here?
Buzz Lightyear and Woody
"Toy Story" (1995)
-- They're so different because: One is a deluded spaceman, the other is a down-to-earth cowboy.
-- But they're really the same because: They are toys.
Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy
"The Muppets" (2011)
-- They're so different because: He's a compassionate, responsible, mild-mannered frog. She's a self-centered but fiercely loving diva sow.
-- But they're really the same because: They love each other. And they're felt.
Robert De Niro and Charles Grodin
"Midnight Run" (1988)
-- They're so different because: One is a fancy-pants fugitive, and the other has "two emotions: silence and rage."
-- But they're really the same because: They're not, really. But they come to an understanding.
Joaquin Phoenix and an operating system
"Her" (2013)
-- They're so different because: He's a slightly nerdy, somewhat withdrawn guy recovering from a bad breakup. She's proof that even as a disembodied voice, Scarlett Johansson's charms are irresistible.
-- But they're really the same because: They are both profoundly searching souls. This is one of the very best movies on the list.
King Kong and Ann Darrow (Faye Wray, Jessica Lange, Naomi Watts)
"King Kong" (1933, 1976, 2005)
-- They're so different because: Joe Jackson might have sung, "Pretty women out walkin' with gorillas down my street ..."
-- But they're really the same because: They are both misunderstood creatures cruelly put on display by a paternalistic society that cares not for the truths of their souls. Ha, didn't expect that, did you?
Ryan Gosling and Bianca
"Lars and the Real Girl" (2007)
-- They're so different because: He's a real man, and she's a life-size doll.
-- But they're really the same because: Um ... Can you say age-defying high-tech polymer? Seriously, have you seen Gosling with his shirt off?
Steve Martin and Michael Caine
"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" (1988)
-- They're so different because: One is a crass, ham-handed Yankee con man. The other is Michael Caine at his suavest.
-- But they're really the same because: They both let their egos and craven desires get in the way of thinking. High jinks ensue on the French Riviera! And yes, oddly enough, there are four movies from 1988 on this list. Go figure. {sbox}
22 Jump Street (R) opens Friday at Bay Area theaters.

Airbnb Community Data Dashboard
Volunteer project
I volunteered for this project because of the unique opportunity to help build a more open and transparent Airbnb community. Working closely with economic policy and data science we launched Airbnb's Community Data Dashboard.
In fall of 2015, Airbnb launched the Airbnb Community Compact, which included a commitment to share data about our community. We launched a new dashboard offering easy access to previously released data about the Airbnb community. The data provides cities with insights about the Airbnb community including figures on the financial benefits for hosts, a breakdown of listings' property-types, and how guests are using our people-to-people platform.

Saying this will not make me a popular person, but I believe Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price's career is a broken promise to Dallas' black community.
While reading all the news surrounding Price's indictment, I realized I have never known Dallas without him on the political and social landscape. Price's career began in 1972, four years before I was born. Growing up, I heard my parents talking about protests he led. I saw him on newscasts and read the headlines he made as he spoke about injustices and how Dallas should correct them.
He spoke for the voiceless in Dallas on issues ranging from defective voting booths in minority precincts to discriminatory hiring practices at Parkland Memorial Hospital.
I was too young to remember every protest and policy he influenced, but I, like many, undoubtedly benefitted from his activism and political service.
What I remember most is that he was always a "regular" person. His background included no Ivy League law degree. He got his share of traffic tickets and lost his temper when confronted with violence during protests.
He also didn't believe in turning the other cheek. On the contrary, he knew power concedes nothing without demands being made, and he was comfortable wielding his own power on behalf of the community.
When I returned to Dallas in 2007, my childhood image of Price changed. He was now a powerful county commissioner and force in Dallas' political machine.
Because I aspired to follow in his tradition of political activism, he was one of the first people I sought out for guidance. Many of my politically active colleagues told me he was a very different person now, beholden to the interests of a high-powered and influential family. I was even advised not to contact him unless I had something to offer in exchange for his help.
I was shocked and saddened — but not deterred. I reached out to him on a variety of environmental and community issues, but I got no response.
I call these two phases of the commissioner's career "classic Price" and "neo Price."
I cannot recall any other local political figure who has been so polarizing. Price's detractors have framed his career as corrupt and racist; prevailing public opinion is not positive. Frequently, I hear conversations of those salivating over the prospect of "taking him down" for being a crook and "playing the race card."
The attitude voiced by those critics punctuates the need for voices such as Price's in this city.
Regardless of the outcome of this phase of Price's career, his real importance lies in being the uncomfortable thorn in Dallas' side, the leader who spoke up for minorities and for the southern part of Dallas. Injustice, racism and disparity still exist — and the classic Price voice is needed now more than ever.
My greatest hope is that young aspiring activists separate the neo Price who is under federal indictment from the classic Price of old. I hope they do not conclude that, if you stand up and speak for the voiceless like classic Price did, it leads to being targeted, harassed and possibly sent to prison.
In many ways, neo Price broke his promise to his community. He became inaccessible to those he claimed to serve and perhaps became corrupted by the very system he fought against. But despite the current legal challenges, his is an important voice, and I feel privileged to have grown up in the era of Price.
New leadership must be the voice that challenges the city in the same ways classic Price did. His early career was a continuation of a long tradition in our community of speaking out against injustice and inequality. That is the man the community embraced, and our city was a better place because of it, just as the struggle for civil rights made America a better place.
It isn't too late for Dallas to make good on the promise of racial equality, justice and political inclusiveness. For that to happen, it will be bold, unapologetic voices like classic John Wiley Price that will push us there.
