The County of San Diego's 2014-15 Community Development Block Grant, HOME Investment Partnerships, Emergency Shelter Grant, and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS annual funding plan will include money for sidewalk improvements at Ammunition Road and Alturas Road.
A 5-0 vote April 15 by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors allocated $207,375 for sidewalk improvements including curbs, gutters, and pedestrian ramps at that intersection. The sidewalks will provide connectivity for pedestrians accessing nearby neighborhood services, schools, and public transportation.
"There is a lot of pedestrian and vehicle traffic near the Naval Weapons Station and the elementary school on Ammunition Road, so these sidewalks are an important safety project for Fallbrook," said Supervisor Bill Horn.
The $207,375 includes five percent, or $9,875, for oversight by the county's Department of Housing and Community Development, which administers the CDBG program. The county's Department of Public Works will utilize other funds to leverage the CDBG revenue. The sidewalk project has a completion estimate of June 2015.
The supervisors approved a total of $1,425,413 in CDBG allocations for 13 projects in the unincorporated area (the county also administers CDBG funding for smaller incorporated cities, whose city councils select the projects to be funded with the city's allocation). The 13 projects include the regional city/county reinvestment task force. The proposals were selected based on criteria which include benefit to lower-income residents, health and safety considerations, the ability to leverage block grant funds into additional revenue, and availability of alternate funding sources.
The Fallbrook sidewalk project was one of two CDBG allocations to Horn's district; the other was $182,000 to the San Diego County Regional Fire Authority for the purchase of a Type VI engine which will be based at the Ranchita station. "We need all the fire equipment we can get out where the big fires start, so this is a critical purchase for North County," Horn said.
Nine projects totaling $1,425,413 were relegated to the alternative list. One of those alternative projects sought $45,000 for the right-of-way acquisition phase for approximately 500 feet of sidewalk on Clemmens Lane between South Mission Road and Old Stage Road.

Sit down if you're not already and I'll hold your virtual hand as I walk you through this one. Sixty-year-old Ohio woman Valerie Spruill made a horrifying discovery after her husband Percy passed away: that he was actually her father.
You're probably wondering, how this is possible. Here's how it went down: Valerie was raised by her grandparents from the age of three months on. Her mother Christine, who was a "night lady" and put away for sex charges in 1980, got together with her father Percy when she was only 15. The pair had seven children together, including Valerie, and Valerie suspects she has more siblings out there.
As an adult, Valerie met and married Percy, having no idea who he was. After Percy passed away, an uncle told Valerie the truth about Percy and the story was confirmed with a DNA test. Valerie remains uncertain whether or not Percy knew she was his daughter when he married her. She believes he knew, but was afraid to tell her. And for good reason. Jeez, couldn't her uncle have said something sooner and saved her the trouble? What gives?
Anyhow,the silver lining on this dark ass cloud is that Valerie has been receiving professional help to deal with her situation and has decided to share her painful story to see if she can locate other siblings she didn't know about. "My biggest goal is to find them and let 'em know that [their mother] loved them, no matter what, … And [to say], 'Thank God she gave you away like she did me, so you could have a beautiful life,'" Valerie explained.

Red Wings center Henrik Zetterberg skated Sunday, but will not play in Game 3 on Monday night, Detroit coach Mike Babcock told ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun.
Zetterberg has missed the first two games of the Wings' opening-round series against the Phoenix Coyotes with a left knee injury. Detroit has won both games without its leading scorer, but travels to Phoenix for Game 3 having barely escaped Game 2.
"We played two good home games," Zetterberg said Sunday. "The last one got really close."
The Coyotes trailed 4-0 before scoring three unanswered. The Red Wings held on for a 4-3 win.
"They had a few power plays and a five-on-three and all of a sudden you're right back in the game," Zetterberg said. "It happens quickly in hockey and you've just got to respond and I think we did."
Zetterberg had 80 points during the regular season, 18 more than any teammate. The Swede missed the last two games of the regular season as well after getting checked by Carolina's Bryan Allen in a loss to the Hurricanes.

This auction is for a vintage Old Timer Schrade 125OT folding pocket knife. I am by no means a collector or grader of knives. I will describe this as best as I can. It does obviously show signs of wear. The blade seems sharp and it is in great usable condition. It measures approximately 5 5/16" closed and 9 1/8" opened. It comes with the original leather case, which also shows signs of wear. The back of the case features a loop for attaching to a belt if you wish. The knife itself has some dings and scuff marks from use, but all in all, it seems to be in good order. The blade is tight. Please see the picture prior to bidding, as all sales are final.

text: I know it sounds crazy now but Capriati was undoubtably the best 15 year old tennis player in history. She should have won the 91 U.S Open, which she choked twice serving for her semifinal vs Seles, and Navratilova herself admits Capriati would have beaten her in the final had she won that. She would have been the only 15 year old in tennis history to win a slam. Capriati is probably also the best 13 year old player ever (Worlds #1 junior at 13) and 14 year old player (slam semifinalist at 14) evert. So based on that had she been managed properly and fulfilled her massive potential did she even have potential to become the best ever. After 1991 she got off track IMO. Even though she remained top 10 in 92 and 93, she did not improve on her 1991 level of tennis which for someone that young is crazy. Her burnout and subsequent retirement for awhile could have been seen alot sooner than it did. She did come back in the early 2000s and against all odds won 3 majors, and solidified herself one of the minor greats of her era and a future HOF. Those 3 majors were even a bit lucky as there were probably 6 or 7 people better than her even those years in tennis ability (she regularly lost to Venus, Serena, Mauresmo, Davenport, Henin, Clijsters even those years), but she did well to catch some lucky breaks and peak at the right times. Still by then it was far too late for her to come anywhere near her once held potential. Had she had better people managing her and bringing her up, and had she fulfilled all the potential she showed at 13-15 could she have been the female GOAT though.

The jury is still out, but it so far has been a mixed bag for CUNA and state leagues when it comes to passing public funds legislation this year with one major victory in Oregon but defeats in New Mexico and Colorado.
When it comes to credit unions and public funds legislation, it's been a mixed bag so far this winter with Oregon Gov. Ted Kulongoski ready to sign a milestone industry bill any day that will enable CUs to bid on municipal funds above $250,000.

PITTSBURGH - A bride, who doctors said would never walk again, took a trip down the aisle Saturday.
Alissa Boyle walked down the aisle then danced the night away at her reception.
Boyle was paralyzed last year when she and a fellow nursing student stopped to help a crash victim on Interstate 79.
The two women jumped off an overpass to avoid a semi-truck that was barreling toward them.
Doctors told Alissa she would never walk again, but she proved them wrong.
"It hasn't been easy. But I just take it a day at a time and I'm here," Boyle said. "I've met every goal that I've had since the accident and this is my last one and I did it, so it's been really good."
The nonprofit organization Jamie's Dream Team helped Boyle and her husband plan their wedding. The couple will honeymoon in Hawaii.

Logo has been keeping quiet about the return of their answer to Bravo's successful 'Housewives' series 'The A-List New York', ropa interior calvin klein and the castmembers have been claiming to be just as in the dark. Sadly, the voice of reason of the bunch, Mike Ruiz, won't be returning to the show, and after seeing the reunion shows, I couldn't blame him. It seemed more like the cast penalizes him for not getting sucked into all their needless drama, but Ruiz being over fourty has been through it all so he knows which battles to choose.
Cast member Derek Saathoff had this to say, "I know Mike will continue to do amazing things and I am very happy for him. I don't think my cast mates or I will be effected by his choice of not returning to the A List NY should there be a 3rd season." Derek also says he doesn't know if he'd return for a third season, but I think most of us know the answer to that one.

Gut bacteria changes linked to stroke risk
Writing in Nature Communications, the Swedish research team noted that recent findings have suggested that the type of bacteria in the gut could contribute to the risk of metabolic diseases by altering levels of inflammation and changing metabolic pathways.
The team compared a group of stroke patients with a group of healthy subjects and found major differences in their gut microbiota.
"We use shotgun sequencing of the gut metagenome to demonstrate that the genus Collinsella was enriched in patients with symptomatic atherosclerosis, … whereas Roseburia and Eubacterium were enriched in healthy controls," wrote the researchers, led by Professor Jens Nielsen, of Chalmers University of Technology.
In addition the team found that genes required for the production of carotenoids were more frequently found in gut microbiota from healthy subjects, while healthy subjects also had significantly higher levels of beta-carotene in the blood than the stroke survivors.
"Our findings suggest that the gut metagenome is associated with the inflammatory status of the host and patients with symptomatic atherosclerosis harbour characteristic changes in the gut metagenome," said Nielsen and his colleagues.
"Even though our study cannot provide evidence for direct causal effects, these findings indicate that the gut metagenome may have a role in the development of symptomatic atherosclerosis."
"Our results [also] indicate that long-term exposure to carotenoids, through production by the bacteria in the digestive system, has important health benefits," said Nielsen.
"These results should make it possible to develop new probiotics," he added. "We think that the bacterial species in the probiotics would establish themselves as a permanent culture in the gut and have a long-term effect."
The researchers behind the findings have now started a company, Metabogen, to further develop their discoveries relating to the metagenome.

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
Well because there in my opinion wasn't a lot to this particular costume I was able to go all out. I made every piece from styling the wig down to the shoes. I even went so far as to custom color all the jewelry and put it together. The wig required mostly layering but it was a nice thick wig so it made me sad to cut so much of the fiber out. A nice local find if I do say so myself. I self patterned the vest and skirt adding a little riveting to the vest for the side straps. The gauntlets are molded craft foam cured with glue and mod podge and then painted with a gold base paint. The cloak was it's own worry as I hand painted the trim with puffed paint to give it a bit more dimension and the shoes I made full out on my own there is no base shoe in there at all. And that is about it for Kail.
- Personal Thoughts:
- Those shoes would have been great if it hadn't been like a million degrees outside. =(

To all the trap shooters out there that love to fish and shoot. You should plan on attending our Alaska State Shoot in July(11-15th). This is the perfect time of year to not only shoot but to go fishing at the peak of salmon and halibut runs. The days are long (18 hours of sunshine) the temperature will be in the 70's to low 80's. You can shoot at the only club in America that overlooks Mt.Mckinley. If you need more information on travel to Alaska go to my website or give us a call at Birchwood Recreation Club @907-688-2809. One of the best bargains to Alaska is a cruise on either Greylines or Princess Cruise lines. You can do a 8 day round trip on Princes from Seattle to Anchorage for $800. Come on up and enjoy some Alaskan hospitality!

Three-star Lithonia (Ga.) Martin Luther King wide receiver D.J. Polite-Bray claims over a dozen offers, however, the 6-foot-1, 175-pounder is focused primarily on two schools in particular at this time.
"I have offers from Akron, Tennessee, Louisville, Wake Forest, Memphis, Middle Tennessee, Western Kentucky, South Alabama, Colorado State, SMU, Ohio, Ball State and FIU," he said. "I can say I've just been feeling really good about Ole Miss lately."
Polite-Bray has held the Ole Miss offer for a couple of months.
Article Continues Below
"They offered me the first day of spring practice, but I haven't visited yet," he said.
The talented receiver explained why Ole Miss has peaked his interest.
"I just like the coaches," he said. "I like the history of the school and playing early is an option. I'm trying to work on a trip during the summer time."
Polite-Bray maintains one other school is right there.
"Ole Miss and Tennessee are standing out," he said. "With Tennessee, they were my first offer and my dad is from Tennessee. They've always kept a good relationship with me since they offered."
The No. 80 prospect in Georgia noted that there is a chance others move up the list, but right now Ole Miss and Tennessee are at the top.
Polite-Bray recorded 20 receptions for over 300-yards and five touchdowns last season.

Trucks for heavy hauling
Heavy-duty trucks and "green" don't seem likely bedfellows, but in Bankrate's five bad-boy work trucks for heavy hauling, you have a lineup of workhorse trucks packing gobs of creature comforts and fuel-efficient diesel engines.
Trucks are classified according to the combined weight of the vehicle plus the total weight, or payload, of the other items — passengers, cargo, fuel and so forth — it can safely transport. This is referred to as a vehicle's GVWR, or gross vehicle weight rating. It doesn't include anything the vehicle might tow, but often the higher the GVWR, the heavier load it can pull.
The pickups on this list have a GVWR from 8,501 pounds to 10,000 pounds, qualifying them as "heavy duty." Bankrate also tossed in a heavy-duty diesel-powered van for fun.
Because these trucks are heavy enough to fall outside the government's requirements for reporting city/highway fuel economy, fuel-economy numbers aren't available. But diesels historically deliver better fuel economy than comparably powerful V-8s.
Some picks are 2014s and some 2013s. Listed pickup-truck prices are for the diesel-powered, four-door crew cabs with automatic transmissions and don't include delivery fees.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Crew Cab
- Price: $41,990
- GVWR: 10,000 pounds
- Max. payload: 3,037 pounds
- Max. towing: 17,400 pounds
Chevrolet redesigned its Silverado for 2014. It comes in several models and body styles, but the price and content here is for the entry-level WT for "work truck." It has easy-to-clean vinyl seats and a vinyl floor covering that can be hosed out.
Although it's missing a few creature comforts, such as power windows and door locks, it's well-equipped with work features such as trailer sway control, integrated trailer brake control, hill start assist and automatic grade braking. Air conditioning and a four-speaker audio system are also standard. Wi-Fi, iPod connectivity, Bluetooth and satellite radio are available.
Operating on regular diesel or B20 biodiesel, its 6.6-liter Duramax turbo-diesel V-8 delivers 397 horsepower via a six-speed automatic transmission. In hauling and towing, torque is the grunt that gets the wheels turning and this V-8 generates a generous 765 foot-pounds of it.
2014 Ford F-250 XLT Crew Cab
- Price: $46,405
- GVWR: 9,900 pounds
- Max. payload: 3,540 pounds
- Max. towing: 16,300 pounds
The F-250 listed here is the mid-level XLT Crew Cab. Ford has historically boasted the best-selling pickup in the F-150. The F-250 builds on that momentum and reputation.
The F-250 uses a 6.7-liter turbo-diesel V-8 for its power and there's plenty of that. A six-speed automatic transmission funnels the V-8's 400 horsepower and 800 foot-pounds of asphalt-crushing torque to the rear wheels.
With XLT, you get a normal array of convenience amenities, such as power windows, door locks and outboard mirrors, air conditioning, cruise control and an audio system with iPod connectivity. The split rear-bench seat folds for more cargo space.
Ford's SYNC voice command interface for cellphones and the audio system is standard. A number of other technologies are available, like Crew Chief, which includes an onboard computer providing fleet managers with real-time data for vehicle location, diagnostics and driver behavior.
2013 Ram 2500 SLT Crew Cab
- Price: $45,015
- GVWR: 10,000 pounds
- Max. payload: 3,020 pounds
- Max. towing: 17,850 pounds
That the Cummins Turbo Diesel in the Ram 2500 is a six cylinder is pretty amazing considering its 370 horsepower and whopping 800 foot-pounds of maximum torque. It also gives nothing away to its key competitors in payload and towing capacity.
It's the only truck on this list offering a manual transmission as standard equipment, but it's priced here with the six-speed automatic required with the turbo diesel.
The SLT is toward the bottom of Ram's pack of models but still includes some comfort features, such as air conditioning, power windows, door locks and heated mirrors, cloth seats, and a six-speaker audio system with satellite radio and iPod input jack.
Ram 2500 owners who want to bump up the technology can opt for one of the available Uconnect audio platforms that can include Bluetooth connectivity, direct access to 911 emergency responders, Wi-Fi hotspot and a bevy of other techo-goodies.
2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali
- Price: $55,465
- GVWR: 10,000 pounds
- Max. payload: 2,871 pounds
- Max. towing: 16,500 pounds
There's no question that GMC bred the Sierra 2500HD Denali for owners who are as likely to drive their big, honkin' pickup to the country club for cocktails as they are pulling their Airstream trailer to the lake. Think of it as a tuxedo-clad heavy-duty truck.
It shares its Duramax turbo-diesel V-8 and six-speed automatic transmission with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, getting the same 397 horsepower and 765 foot-pounds of torque. Despite its civilized manners, it still can do a full day's work with plenty of hauling and pulling capability.
Its cabin is roomy and comfortable.
Upping the passenger amenities considerably, it comes with heated/cooled front leather seating, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a Bose-infused audio system with iPod connectivity and satellite radio. Bluetooth connectivity is also standard. Options include a rear-seat entertainment system, navigation system and rear-view back-up camera.
2013 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cargo Van
- Price: $36,290
- GVWR: 8,550 pounds
- Max. payload: 3,426 pounds
- Max. towing: 5,000 pounds
There is no blurring of the line between personal use and work with the Sprinter. It's a bare-bones work platform with very little in the way of standard convenience features. For the listed price, it comes with air conditioning, an AM/FM two-speaker audio system and a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel. The standard cargo floor is wood.
There are longer versions, as well as high-roof models that even a six-footer can stand in.
It's up to the buyer to equip it from a wide selection of extra-cost packages, configuring it for specific uses. The $615 premium package, for example, includes power/heated outboard mirrors, cruise control and upgraded seats.
When the 2014s hit showrooms, the standard engine will be a 161-horsepower four-cylinder diesel. The 2013 standard-equipment 188-horsepower six-cylinder diesel will stay on as an option. It makes 325 foot-pounds of torque. A five-speed automatic transmission turns the rear wheels.

It might be the most audacious, and perhaps the most presumptuous, ad slogan ever devised.
"Find God's Match for You," sayeth ChristianMingle.com, an online dating service that suggests in its advertising that its computer-generated matches are, well, made in heaven.
The slogan appears just about everywhere — on the Web, on TV, in your e-mail box — suggesting that ChristianMingle may even have the Man Upstairs in its corner.
Which raises a few questions about ChristianMingle. Such as: How does it know whom God wants to hook you up with? And is it kosher to invoke God's name to sell a dating service?
ChristianMingle says the slogan has been a blessing. "We think it encompasses who we are and how we define our community," said Ashley Reccord, a spokeswoman for the site. "People have told us again and again that they wouldn't have found each other without us and that they believe God used ChristianMingle to bring them together."

I would totally wear this t-shirt:
(via nakedpastor)
I don't get it.
By "not offensive", I assume you mean by the standards of people who also wouldn't be offended by billboards that say "Don't believe in God? You're not alone."
But I agree, the discussions it could begin would be very much worth having…
he believed… as in past tense form of believe… as in he no longer believes
It's still a bit ambiguous. Mitch Hedberg pointed it out in a joke, "I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too."
You know how I know there's no god? Mitch Hedberg is dead.
It kind of reminds me of the old joke:
"I don't drink any more…"
"I don't drink any less, but I don't drink any more."
But the shirt would be a good conversation starter for those that once believed but not any more.
I didn't get it either…………….
Nice 😉
Makes me think of that video where there's a bunch of people talking in ex-Gay shirts 😛
Which makes me think of shirts that are ex-Christian, ex-Muslim, ex-Jain, etc. 😉
Alas they don't quite apply to me. I'm an Believed-er in God as much as I'm an Believed-er in Santa, which is to say technically I did believe in both at some point but only as a small child who didn't know any better 😛
I don't know why, but when I first saw this I assumed the -ed meant passive voice, not past tense.
Love the T-shirt! I wore a Flying Spaghetti Monster shirt to a meet n'greet with a Christian Pastor today! He actually got a good chuckle out of it. I have a few friends who this shirt would be perfect for. Where can I get one?
This is just bad grammar for 'I am an ex-believer', 'I am a former believer' or 'I used to be a believer'.
Bad grammar is not cool in itself unless you're a lolcat. kthxbai
I believe NakedPastor who drew this will provide T-shirts (he does other T-shirts).
Though whether he has done one for this, I don't know. You can ask in the comments there.
I'm not really the type of person to display my beliefs on my chest (I don't like bumper stickers either) but I do like this statement, and perhaps the next time someone asks me my religious preference, I can tell them that I'm a "believed-er" to see what kind of reaction I get.

It looks like Best Buy will be having another Galaxy S III sale. This latest sale will take place tomorrow, October 26, and means a $100 savings on select carrier branded 16GB Galaxy S III smartphones. The select carriers include Verizon Wireless, Sprint and AT&T. As for the price, $99.99 on a new two-year agreement. That all being said, if you had been considering the purchase of a Galaxy S III with any of these carriers, tomorrow seems like as good a time as any to make the purchase.

text: Shock! Unexpected ending! Happy piss end! You won't believe without seeing! Welcome to the next episode of our casting. Today you will see something shocking. 21 years old Monika will take care of that. This lovely brunette with wonderful eyes studies medicine. She has no boyfriend and she thinks she's pretty intelligent. Her goal is to become a successful doctor and to find a man, have a lot of kids and be happy. She seemed rather shy, ashamed and she didn't speak much. The truth is this was her first casting, so we understand that. We expect the future doctor won't want to show off in front of the camera. Well, we were shocked by what happened after we left her alone with our cameraman. He didn't have to persuade her at all!!! He just showed her his cock and it was all done. The extremely intelligent Monika got fucked by a strange guy and in the end pissed on the floor, all of that in front of a rolling camera! Jesus Christ, what wil her parents think about that?! That'll be a HUGE MESS! You can see that only here!

Once they know how personalities work, individuals and organisations find it easier to effect change
Organisations today are required to be flexible and ready to adapt quickly to the changing environments in which they operate. This ability to embrace change at a corporate level depends on individual members of the workforce being able to cope with stress and meet whatever challenges they face. For this, training in the very latest technical skills is essential, but even more important is the need to address the mindset and psychological well-being of employees to ensure they are suitably prepared to deal with change.
A person's state of mind creates happiness and determines success, according to Dr Wong Chung Kwong, chairman of the board of advisors for the Whole Person Development Institute (WPDI). He also believes that if someone knows how to effect a change in their way of thinking it can open a window to new possibilities for success and achievement. "It is a matter of balancing the external changes with an adjustment of the internal mindset," he says.
Dr Wong was previously professor and chairman of the Department of Psychiatry at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He has given over 3,000 lectures, seminars and workshops, participated in 600 TV programmes about mental health, and published over 60 scientific articles in psychiatric journals and books. Besides that, he has acted as an expert psychiatric witness in over 500 civil and criminal cases in the High Court of Hong Kong.
Four parts
Dr Wong explains that there are four major psychological components in any personality: perception, emotion, behaviour and self-value. In his opinion, each is of equal importance in maintaining a personality which functions effectively. Someone's psychological response to change is reflected in behaviour, which is driven by emotion and determined by one's self-value and how one perceives the meaning of change. It is generally easy to alter perceptions, but these can be affected by a disturbance of the emotions.
He also points out that although self-value is central to one's personality, it can be affected by reflections on one's own behaviour and the outcomes which result.
To become masters of our own personalities depends on a circular process of self-empowerment. This begins when each person gains insights about their inner self and their circumstances, and follows on by confirming their goals and value as well as the improvement they need to make. On completing these two steps, any individual should be motivated to acquire the essential abilities they need and to go through a continuous process of nurturing. These elements – insights, confirmation, abilities and nurture – form the acronym for the ICAN paradigm developed by Dr Wong.
He firmly believes that people can develop their personality and control their own lives more effectively by applying the ICAN model. From an organisational perspective, it also allows people to be empowered and helps in the creation of a capable, reliable and dedicated workforce.
A number of coaching methods and specific strategies can be employed to teach people about empowerment. These include thought reframing, mood regulation, fear reduction, mediation and relaxation. Imagery and visualisation exercises are also employed to help mobilise, revitalise and unleash people's inner potential and to promote personal growth and success.
In addition to empowerment, WPDI also emphasises the importance of creating connections between people and promoting personal development. The former involves building and integrating high-performing teams which are aligned with an organisation's core values. The latter is intended to unlock the potential of employees by encouraging continuous growth and learning throughout the organisation.
Strategic advice
As a consultant, WPDI offers professional advice and psychological strategies to help senior managers analyse the problems they face and realise their business objectives. For example, it has helped one major local contractor transform into a developer in order to take advantage of broader opportunities in the property market.
WPDI also works with HR departments to design tailor-made workshops and seminars for staff training and development. One client, a major local bank, has sought assistance in developing a team of hundreds of change facilitators. They were selected from different departments and are now responsible for driving change within the bank and supporting other members of staff.
Having gained extensive experience in advising various public and private organisations, Dr Wong says that the problems encountered by clients differ greatly and each requires a specific solution. Nevertheless, "mind coaching" is always a factor in helping them to embrace change successfully.
For an organisation to sustain change, it must be prepared to take appropriate measures to modify its operations. In many cases, this means establishing better channels for communication and creating a culture which is open and cooperative. "Whether you are working with individuals or organisations, there should be an awareness of the need for change and of the methods to be used," says Dr Wong. He adds that once people have learned how to manage change and have gained a certain momentum, they should take the next step by helping others to change.

Kyson Johnson, Texas' only dedicated insurance fraud prosecutor, has been named 2011 Prosecutor of the Year by the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud.
Johnson was honored for his successful record in prosecuting criminals involved with various forms of insurance fraud including staged car accidents, owner give up schemes, arson and theft of premiums.
During his seven years as special prosecutor in the Dallas County District Attorney's Office, Johnson has prosecuted more than 250 cases of insurance fraud that have resulted in $250,000 in fines and $7 million in restitution.
Texas Insurance Commissioner Eleanor Kitzman praised Johnson for his work. "Kyson Johnson has a noteworthy record of achievements as an insurance fraud prosecutor, a litigator and army officer," Kitzman said. "Kyson's efforts have enhanced communication, cooperation and the effectiveness of Texas anti-fraud initiatives."
Johnson is also a major in the U.S. Army Reserve serving as a deputy regional defense counsel. He served time in Iraq as a prosecutor in the aftermath of the Abu Ghraib prison scandal.
Johnson has a unique arrangement specializing in insurance fraud cases within the Dallas County District Attorney's Office, but is a paid employee of the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI). Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins says Johnson has made the most of this unique situation.
"Kyson Johnson is a talented prosecutor whose expertise has made a tremendous impact on our ability to seek justice on insurance fraud cases in Dallas County," said Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins. "We are extremely proud to have him on our team and we look forward to continuing our successful relationship with the Texas Department of Insurance."
Johnson reports to TDI's Associate Commissioner of Fraud Dennis Pompa. Pompa said Johnson's work within the Dallas County District Attorney's Office has proved invaluable and his ability to liaison with law enforcement officers and special investigators has been a tremendous asset.
The Prosecutor of the Year Award is the only national award to honor anti-fraud prosecutors for excellence in the courtroom and leadership within the anti-fraud community. The award encourages best practices in fraud prosecutions by highlighting the work of the profession's best and brightest.
"Kyson Johnson sets the bar very high as an insurance-fraud prosecutor. He's an imposing legal force whose personal belief in cleaning up this crime earned him a long list of deserved fraud convictions in the Dallas region this year," says Dennis Jay, executive director of the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud.
Johnson has played an integral role in the Texas Committee on Insurance Fraud which has supported insurance fraud legislation strengthening criminal penalties and outlawing "ambulance chasing" which took effect this year.
Johnson is the son of missionaries who served in Malawi and Zimbabwe, Africa. He has one sister and two brothers who are police officers in Oklahoma. Johnson is a 1995 graduate of the Texas Wesleyan University School of Law. On his off time Johnson competes in triathlons and has qualified for the Boston Marathon five times.

Former Blue Jay Bill Risley threw his final pitch Sept. 26, 1998 when he retired the Detroit Tigers in the 13th inning.
Yet, Friday was Bill Risley day.
The Blue Jays settled with centre fielder Colby Rasmus, right-hander Esmil Rogers and lefty reliever Brett Cecil before the deadline on salary arbitration day.
Salary arbitration time is when reliever Risley, who pitched seven years, gets any mention as he's the last player the Jays took to arbitration in 1997. Like opening day when Doug Ault gets the most mention for hitting two homers in 1977.

Scandinavian Airlines of North America, Inc., on behalf of SAS Cargo Group A/S, entered into an agreement with Total Airport Services, Inc. to handle its cargo and mail at SAS Cargo's dedicated terminal at Newark International Airport. The Agreement also covers several other carriers being handled by SAS Cargo at Newark.
(Total Airport Services) Senior VP Business Development Denny Eichenbaum said, 'The 62,000-square-foot facility is equipped with state-of-the-art material handling technology that will be of great advantage in our efforts to attract new business at EWR. The Sales & Service team of Gerald Kolasch, VP Cargo and Harry Hoge, Regional VP Northeast, will have all the tools necessary to achieve the key targets of our business plan to grow both air cargo warehousing and under-the-wing ramp handling services.'
'A facility of this size can accommodate 56,000 tons of cargo annually,' said Harry Hoge. 'The current through-put is averaging 26,000 tons per annum, which allows for the type of growth potential we like to see in a new location. That along with the two freighter parking spots located directly behind the facility present a welcome challenge that both Gerald and I are eager to pursue,' Hoge added.
Kenneth Marx, SAS Cargo's President and CEO said, 'We are pleased to having finalized the agreement with Total Airport Services at Newark. SAS and SAS Cargo's continued effort to optimize its operations by focusing on sales and product development through our access to SAS intercontinental flights as well our dedicated all-cargo flights from US gateways to Scandinavia, we will continue to provide our customers with a continued high quality cargo handling at the Newark gateway.
As handling cargo is not our core business, we feel that by choosing a dedicated cargo handling provider focusing entirely on this specific business segment, will enable us to increase the focus on sales related efforts to the ever increasing and highly demanding North American market," Marx concluded.
SAS Cargo has been present at Newark with its own cargo terminal since 1998, and SAS has operated at Newark for almost 20 years. Today SAS flies to Denmark's capital Copenhagen as well as Sweden's capital Stockholm. In addition, SAS utilizes Seattle, Chicago and Washington Dulles airport as its US gateways, with extensive code-share flights with other Star Alliance partners.
Total Airport Services, Inc. is an independently owned and operated provider of quality aviation services in North America. Lines of business include air cargo warehousing, ramp handling, aircraft deicing, into-plane fueling and airport terminal services.

Alfred Desio
LOS ANGELES -- Dancer and choreographer Alfred Desio, a Broadway veteran who invented a form of electronically enhanced tap dancing called Tap-Tronics, died Wednesday. He was 74.
Desio died of complications of bladder cancer at Olympia Medical Center in Los Angeles, his wife and dance collaborator Louise Reichlin said Friday.
Desio created Tap-Tronics in the 1980s, a concept that allows tap dancers to make their own music by means of microphones in their shoes. The tap sounds picked up by the microphones are relayed to transmitters, receivers, synthesizers and other electronic equipment.
Mary Kaye
LAS VEGAS -- Mary Kaye, a Hawaiian guitarist and singer who headed the "Mary Kaye Trio" and kicked off Las Vegas' 24-hour lounge scene, died Saturday. She was 83.
Kaye died of respiratory and heart failure, her nephew said.
Born Mary Kaaihue, she was the daughter of Johnny "Ukulele" Kaaihue, and an accomplished guitarist.
Kaye and her trio, made up of older brother Norman Kaye and Frank Ross, began playing deep into the night at Las Vegas' Frontier casino-hotel in the 1950s before such performances were hip, John Kaye said.
Norman Kaye, 84, is the only surviving member of the trio, said John Kaye, his son. Ross died in California in 1995.
The group recorded 13 albums, 21 singles, made 22 appearances on television and played on four movie soundtracks, John Kaye said. The albums included "Night Life" (1966), "Our Hawaii" (1962), and "A Night in Las Vegas" (1952).

A safer, slower downtown?
The goal now�at least for a downtown business association�is to make that traffic safer and slower.
The Downtown Development Alliance supports the conversion of Milwaukee and Court streets from one-way traffic to two-way, an idea that's been floated periodically for years.
Wednesday, the organization sponsored a meeting to get public input.
"If you want to do, do it and let the DDA pay for it," said one man. "Why charge everyone for it?"
Cost is certainly an issue. A consultant hired by the city came up with three options that range from about $385,000 to $1.8 million.
The alternatives include:
-- Converting both Milwaukee and Court streets beginning at Atwood Avenue on the east. Milwaukee Street would end east of Five Points with a cul-del-sac, and traffic would be diverted to Centerway. Cost: $1.8 million.
-- Converting both Milwaukee and Court streets from Atwood Avenue on the east to Five Points on the west, with only westbound Milwaukee Street access to Five Points. Cost: $1.4 million.
-- Converting both Milwaukee and Court streets from Atwood Avenue on the east. Instead of a costly reconstruction at Five Points, keep Milwaukee Street one-way west of Locust Street and Court Street one-way west of Academy Street. Cost: $385,000.
"A fourth option is to just say no," said Al Lembrich. "We don't have the money, and, even if we did, it boils down to being a good steward of the taxpayers' money."
Lembrich said the conversion won't to anything to help traffic or businesses along Milwaukee and Court streets. Instead, he said, bogging down traffic will only cause motorist angst and create more air pollution.
While Lembrich's comments drew a smattering of applause from the 40 or so in attendance, others supported the project as a way to slow traffic and improve pedestrian and motorist safety, move traffic more efficiently and improve accessibility to businesses that are more easily visible at slow speeds.
Karl Dommershausen, chairman of the DDA's traffic and parking committee, said the committee has endorsed the concept of conversion but not any one of the three alternatives.
He said many communities are finding safety and shopping success with similar street conversions.
He said a multitude of downtown Janesville revitalization studies have supported the conversion from one-way to two-way.
Between 2006 and 2009, the city converted Jackson and Franklin streets to two-way at a cost of $196,700.
Carl Weber, the city's public works director, said the conversion study by Ayres Associates is not the end of the road. In fact, he said, several options exist to reduce the cost of the project, including limiting the work to the two streets between the Five Points and Main Street.
"These are the three scenarios studied in detail," he said. "It does not mean they are our only choices, and we're open to discussion."
The full DDA board will ultimately make a recommendation to the city council.
Jim Alverson owns a downtown business and five buildings on West Milwaukee Street.
"Our store has 1,600 visitors a month, and many of them are from outside the area," he said. "They say it's scary to park and traffic is moving awfully fast."
Another downtown business owner asked why traffic couldn't be slowed without an expensive construction project.
"How about flashing lights or just unsynchronizing the lights?" she said.
Weber said that approach, or one that puts stop signs at every intersection, would create jackrabbiting traffic and more safety concerns.
The study also found that a conversion would:
-- Only marginally affect on-street parking.
-- Not affect existing traffic volumes.
-- Require a change at the intersections of Parker Drive and Main Street to accommodate truck traffic. The curb bump at Milwaukee and Main streets would need to be removed.
John Beckord, president of Forward Janesville, said he's heard lots of comments both in support and opposition to the conversion project.
"There are those who say no just because of the cost, and there are those that just want to get through the downtown as fast as they can," he said. "There are a lot of different perspectives on this, and that's the challenge facing the DDA board."

Denmark's Fat Tax Harms Economy
June 6, 2013
Denmark's tax on saturated fat was hailed as a world-leading public health policy when it was introduced in October 2011, but it was abandoned 15 months later when the unintended consequences became clear, says Christopher Snowdon, director of lifestyle economics at the Institute of Economic Affairs.
The economic effects of the fat tax were almost invariably negative.
- It was blamed for helping inflation rise to 4.7 percent in a year in which real wages fell by 0.8 percent.
- Many Danes switched to cheaper brands or went over the border to Sweden and Germany to do their shopping.
- At least 10 percent of fat tax revenues were swallowed up in administrative costs and it was estimated to have cost 1,300 Danish jobs.
The fat tax didn't notably benefit public health at all.
- The fat tax had a very limited impact on the consumption of "unhealthy" foods.
- One survey found that only 7 percent of the population reduced the amount of butter, cream and cheese they bought, and another survey found that 80 percent of Danes did not change their shopping habits at all.
It was widely criticized across the political spectrum for making the poor poorer.
- By October 2012, 70 percent of Danes considered the tax to be "bad" or "very bad" and newspapers routinely described it as "infamous," "maligned" and "hated."
- Mette Gjerskov, the minister for food, agriculture and fisheries, admitted in late 2012: "The fat tax is one of the most criticized policies we have had in a long time."
Ultimately, Danish politicians weighed the negligible health benefits against the demonstrable social and economic costs and swiftly abandoned it. Few mourn its passing.
The economic and political failure of the fat tax provides important lessons for policymakers who are considering "health-related" taxes on fat, sugar, junk food and fizzy drinks. As other studies have concluded, the effect of such policies on calorie consumption and obesity is likely to be minimal. These taxes are highly regressive, economically inefficient and widely unpopular. Although they remain popular with many health campaigners, this may be because, as one Danish journalist noted, "Doctors don't need to get re-elected."

Today Vanity Fair published Christopher Hitchens' final essay for the magazine, an inspiring tribute to Charles Dickens.
The journalist and author passed away last month after a battle with cancer. If Hitchens' tribute to a great author inspires you to read some books, follow this link to download free eBooks from Charles Dickens.
Here's an excerpt: "It is all there to emphasize the one central and polar and critical point that Dickens wishes to enjoin on us all: whatever you do—hang on to your childhood! He was true to this in his fashion, both in ways that delight me and in ways that do not. He loved the idea of a birthday celebration, being lavish about it, reminding people that they were once unborn and are now launched. This is bighearted, and we might all do a bit more of it."

The US Federal Reserve has cut its forecasts for US economic growth this year, but it offered no hint of further measures to support the economy, saying growth should pick up soon.
In quarterly projections released at the end of a two-day meeting, the US central bank said the US economy should grow by 2.7% to 2.9% this year. This is 0.4 points lower than the range it expected in April.
The forecast for 2012 was also reduced by 0.35 points to a range of 3.3% to 3.7%.
The Fed blamed a recent slowdown in US growth and quickening of inflation partly on temporary factors, including higher commodity prices and disruptions from Japan's devastating earthquake. It said the forces pushing up prices should fade, allowing inflation to ease.
'The slower pace of recovery reflects in part factors that are likely to be temporary, including the damping effect of higher food and energy prices on consumer purchasing power and spending as well as supply-chain disruptions associated with the tragic events in Japan,' the Fed said in a statement.
As widely expected, the Fed said it would maintain interest rates at exceptionally low levels for an extended period. Since December 2008, the Fed has kept its key target interest rate between zero and 0.25% in an effort to boost economic growth.
It also confirmed it was ending its $600 billion bond-buying programme at the end of the month. The Fed will have pumped more than $2.3 trillion into the economy by the end of June by buying securities on the markets.
The Fed also downgraded its view of the US labour market, saying it had been 'weaker than anticipated' and pushed its forecast for unemployment higher. It said the jobless rate was likely to average 8.6% to 8.9% in the fourth quarter, up from its April projections.
The US economy grew at just a 1.8% annualised rate in the first three months of the year.

Bethel prepares for holiday celebration
December 3rd, 2009 Author: Marsha Mundy Filed Under: News
The Village of Bethel is gearing up for the Down Home Christmas and council members expressed their thoughts about the upcoming event at the meeting on Monday, Nov. 23.
"It looks like Bethel is getting in the holiday spirit with the Christmas lights going up," said Mayor John Swarthout. "Every year I have people tell me how nice the village looks when they drive through."
Village Administrator Travis Dotson told council that all the lights were expected to be in place in time for the Down Home Christmas, scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 5.
"There are a lot of businesses in the village," said councilman Alan Ausman. "I recommend that residents of the village shop in the local businesses during the holiday season."
"If each resident would spend $50 a month in local businesses, it would generate a lot of tax dollars that would stay in the village," said councilwoman Donna Gunn. "I think that there should be a concerted effort to buy goods in Bethel."
In other business:
A public hearing to amend zoning fees was set for 6:30 p.m. Jan. 11, 2010.
A concerned resident contacted Gunn about seven pit bulls being kept in a small backyard in the village. It was unclear if a noise ordinance was in place to restrict the noise during the day. Solicitor George Leicht said he would check.
The finance committee approved funding in the 2010 budget to purchase a mini-excavator for the public works department. Resident Rus Whitley suggested that in light of the village's current financial crisis, instead of purchasing the excavator, the village could lease one when needed.
Council approved spending $968 to repair a police cruiser which was involved in an accident. The insurance is $1,000 deductible and approval of the funds will eliminate the need to turn in the claim.
Newly elected council members Mary Daugherty, Priscilla Johnson, and Janice Ireton were present at the meeting. They were recognized and welcomed by council members.

BACE1 alternative splicing and targeting by antisense oligonucleotides. (a) Alternative splice sites in exons 3 and 4 of BACE1 mRNA. The amino acid length of each isoform upon translation to protein is indicated. Red lines indicate antisense oligonucleotides targeted to the normal 5′ and 3′ splice sites. (b) Structure of BACE1 showing the N- and C-terminal lobes, with the active site at the interface. Colored regions are parts of the full-length BACE1 enzyme that would be deleted in alternative splice isoforms. Note that these sites are in and around the active site and would be expected to affect the folding and final conformation of the enzyme.

Twi-Hards, your day has come!
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 premiere happened today at Los Angeles' Nokia Theater, and we streamed live as the stars arrived.
Was this the day R Patz and K Stew finally showed some public affection?! Did Taylor Lautner shave his ever-changing facial hair for the occasion?!
