wikiHow to Bypass YouTube's Regional Filter
Two Methods:Using a YouTube Proxy SiteUsing a VPN ServiceCommunity Q&A
YouTube has millions of videos, but many aren't available to watch outside of the region they were uploaded in. This is often due to copyright laws to prevent unauthorized viewers. There are several ways that you can get around these restrictions. There are multiple websites you can visit that will load videos for you through their servers, bypassing the region filter. If you are getting blocked a lot, you can use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to unblock all of your internet traffic.
Using a YouTube Proxy Site
1Visit a YouTube proxy site. These are websites that operate servers in multiple countries, allowing you to bypass regional restrictions. Popular sites include:
- ProxFree (proxfree.com)
- UnblockYouTube (unblockyoutube.co.uk)
- Zalmos (zalmos.com)
2Select a server in the country you want to pretend you're from. Some proxy sites, such as ProxFree, will allow you to select which server you want to connect to. Select a server located in the country that has access to the video. For example, if the video is only available in the United Kingdom, select the UK server.
- This may take some trial and error if you don't know where the video originated from. You may have to try different servers until you find one that works for the video you want to watch.
3Load the YouTube website through your proxy. Enter "youtube.com" into the URL field on the YouTube proxy site. This will load the YouTube page through the proxy site. You'll likely see a bar at the top of the screen for the proxy site you are using. The YouTube page will load in whatever language is native to the server's location.
4Find the video you want to watch. You can use the search function in YouTube to find the video, or if you have the video's URL you can just paste it into your proxy site's URL field. If the server you are connected to is able to view the video, you will be able to watch it.
5Try a different server if the video still won't load. Remember, you'll need to connect to a location that is able to view the video. Your best bet is to connect to a server in the same location that the video was uploaded from. You may have to try several different servers until you find one that works.
- Not all YouTube proxy sites allow to select the server you want to connect to. Search "YouTube proxy" using your favorite search engine to find more YouTube proxy sites.
- Avoid logging in to YouTube while using a proxy site, as you'll be sending your login information through the proxy service on its way to YouTube. It could be intercepted by an untrustworthy proxy.
6Bypass an age-restricted video. If the video requires you to login to view the age restricted content, remove the /watch?v= part of the URL and replace it with v/. Load this altered URL in the proxy and you will bypass the age verification system. This will allow you to watch the video you need to watch without having to compromise your login information through the proxy.[1]
Using a VPN Service
1Know when to choose a VPN over a free proxy. VPN (Virtual Private Network) services off many more servers that you can choose from, and are much more secure than the free proxy. If you upload a lot of videos to YouTube and need to be able to bypass regional filters and log in with your account, you may want to consider paying for a VPN service.[2]
- VPNs are also a good choice if you find yourself locked out of lots of content and service online, as it will unblock all of your internet traffic.
- You can use a VPN on your mobile device as well.
2Choose a VPN. There are lots of VPNs out there, so you'll need to do a little research. Look at reviews and investigate their customer security and privacy claims. You'll also want to find one with a variety of servers around the world, especially if you look at YouTube content from lots of different regions. Avoid free VPN services, as these are usually slow and not very secure or trustworthy.
- When you sign up for a VPN, you will be given a username and password, as well as connection details for the different VPN servers. Some VPN services include their own custom VPN client, but you can use the VPN service built-in to your operating system to connect as well.
3Connect your device to the VPN. The process for connecting varies depending on the device you are using. Once you are connected, all of your internet traffic will be routed through the VPN. See How to Connect to a VPN for instructions on connecting to a VPN in Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, and Android.
- Windows - Open the Start menu or screen and search for "VPN". Launch the VPN connection wizard and enter in your VPN server and user login information. Your VPN will appear in the Networks list.
- Mac - Open the System Preferences menu and select "Network". Click the "+" button and select "VPN" as the interface type. Enter your server and user login information. Your new VPN will appear in the Network list from the menu bar.
- iOS - Open the Settings app and select "General". Select the "VPN" option and then tap "Add VPN". Enter in your server and user login information. The VPN icon will appear in your notification bar when connected.
- Android - Open the Settings app and tap "More" under "Wireless & networks". Tap the "VPN" option and then tap the "+". Enter in the VPN server and login information. A VPN icon will appear in the notification bar when you're connected.
4Open YouTube. Now that you're connected to your VPN server, you can visit the YouTube website or open your YouTube app. Because you're connected through a secure VPN, you can login without worrying about your credentials being stolen. YouTube will load the version of the site for the location of the server you are connected to.
5Find the video you want to watch. Search for the video or copy and paste the URL into your browser's address bar. Since all of your traffic is routed through the VPN, you'll be able to load the videos without any problem in any browser (as long as the server you are connected to is in a region that is allowed by the video).

Hyperacidity – How to Cure Hyperacidity Symptoms And GERD Symptoms
Many of us get that bloated and painful stomach feeling. Some people also feel burning or cold stomach sensations. Usually, the main cause of these symptoms is hyperacidity. The reason it happens is because the stomach has produced more acid (hydrochloric acid) than it should. Therefore, one will feel the pain and symptoms inside the tummy. In some cases, GERD (Acid Reflux) will occur where acid will creep up to the esophagus causing heartburn.
Common Symptoms of Hyperacidity
- It can be a sharp pain which may lead to vomiting
- Heartburn (burning pain in the chest and back)
- Frequent burping and passing of gas
- Extreme stomach pain similar to stabbing
- Upper abdominal pain which may include heaves
- Bloated feeling of tummy
- Cold stomach sensation
Complications of Hyperacidity
GERD or Acid Reflux is a condition that will result from hyperacidity. GERD or Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease happens when the excess acid fills up to your throat. It is that sour taste in the mouth and throat that you experience. You need to undergo barium swallow or endoscopy to evaluate the degree of your condition.
For more serious ailments or if your doctor has diagnosed you with gastric ulcer, then a gastric ulcer remedy at home may be difficult to find. To relieve gastric ulcer, you may need to take oral medications specifically used to heal stomach wounds. (References from: WebMD)

Monday, July 28, 2014 | 12:27 p.m.
A former department head with the Clark County School District pleaded not guilty today to 52 charges related to the theft of nearly $300,000 from her employer.
Priscilla Rocha is accused of falsifying time sheets, purchasing electronics for herself and taking money collected from students in the Adult English Language Acquisition program, according to Metro Police.
Rocha, who is also the Nevada director of the League of United Latin American Citizens, retired in April as head of the English program amid a Metro Police investigation into the alleged thefts, which investigators say occurred between October 2005 and March 2014.
She faces charges that include burglary, theft, possession of stolen property and unlawful use of public money.
A grand jury indicted Rocha on July 18 along with her son, Jerome Rocha, activist Andres Mendoza, who formerly led LULAC's local branch, Donnie Placencia and Jaime Espitia.
Jerome Rocha and Donny Placencia also pleaded not guilty at this morning's hearing in Clark County District Court.
Andres Mendoza and Jaime Espitia did not enter pleas because they are awaiting court-appointed attorneys, court spokeswoman Mary Ann Price said.
Placencia and the Rochas will appear in court again on Wednesday for a bail hearing.

Andrew Greene is suing the makers of the Leonardo DiCaprio film for $25m (£15m) and claims the movie has "permanently damaged" his reputation.
The Paramount Pictures movie, which is nominated for five Oscars, is based on the 2007 memoir by Jordan Belfort, a hedonistic broker whose activities made him a millionaire, but soon attracted the attention of the police.
Greene was a friend of Belfort's and was employed as the head of corporate finance at his firm in the 1990s.
The character Nicky "Rugrat" Koskoff is thought to be based on him and the hairpiece he wears in real life.
In the film, directed by Martin Scorsese, Koskoff is shown shaving the hair off a woman who is then given $10,000 (£6,000).
"Mr Greene's character is shown doing cocaine on company premises during business hours in another scene," the suit said.
"The motion picture included other scenes depicting Mr Greene's character in a reckless and depraved manner, including more than one scene wherein his character is depicted having sexual relations with a prostitute."
The complaint added: "Mr Greene will be permanently linked to the crimes and loathsome behaviour portrayed by his likeness in the motion picture, despite never having been interviewed, questioned, charged, imprisoned or even arrested for the illicit and despicable behaviour shown in the motion picture."
Paramount Pictures has not responded to a request for comment.
:: Watch Sky News live on television, on Sky channel 501, Virgin Media channel 602, Freeview channel 82 and Freesat channel 202.
:: You can also watch the Oscars live on Sunday, March 2 on Sky Movies from 11.30pm.

Snoop Dogg Arrested for Marijuana Smell on Tour Bus
Rapper Snoop Dogg was charged with a minor drug offense after border patrol officers at a checkpoint in Texas discovered cannabis on the tour bus he was in.
Hudspeth County sheriff's office in a statement that was released stated that Snoop Dogg, whose legal name is Calvin Broadus Jr., was arrested Saturday during a routine inspection at the Sierra Blanca highway checkpoint.
He was cited for possession of drug paraphernalia, a misdemeanor which is typical for cases involving small amounts of marijuana.
Reports from the sheriff's office indicate that during the routine inspection a border patrol agent smelled marijuana coming from the tour bus. The agent then ordered everyone off the bus and searched the bus with the aid of a narcotics dog.
The officer discovered several marijuana cigarettes in a trash can along with a prescription bottle with just under one half-ounce of marijuana inside.
Broadus Jr. admitted the drugs were his and was released, the sheriff's office said.
Snoop Dogg's agent did not release a statement or respond to requests for comments on Monday. In interviews, the rapper has claimed he has a prescription for medical marijuana use in his home state of California because he experiences migraines and blurred vision.
Texas has a zero-tolerance policy for drug possession even though he has a prescription for medical marijuana in California, that prescription is not recognized in Texas.
Snoop Dogg was issued a citation for misdemeanor drug possession and released. TMZ reported that if he is convicted on the drug charge, he could face up to 180 days in jail.
However, County Judge Becky Dean Walker said that paraphernalia citations are typically handled by justices of the peace in the county and that they usually are resolved with a no contest plea and a mailed-in fine of up to $500.
Country singer Willie Nelson was arrested in November 2010 for marijuana possession during an inspection at that same checkpoint.

Education gets the bigger budget bite - with a reprimand
"Together with the broader education infrastructure grant, R23.9-billion is available to provincial education departments for infrastructure over the next three years," Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan told Parliament on Wednesday.
He also appeared to allude to 2012's other major education scandal – the Limpopo textbook debacle – when he cited "the education accountability chain, with lines of responsibility from state to classroom", adding that there were "weaknesses" to be "tackled aggresssively".
Increased infrastructure formed part of larger education spending as a whole for 2013/14 – R232,5-billion, up 5% from last year's R221-billion – and kept education as the biggest spend item in the budget.
But Gordhan also highlighted other needs in basic education, such as the improvement of numeracy and literacy and the expansion of enrolment in grade R. This was a noticeable rhetorical shift from the strong emphasis on vocational skills that characterised his speeches in 2011 and 2012.
But the numbers revealed that this year's spend on vocational and continuing education training would remain steady at just more than R20-billion – an increase of half a percent from last year.
By contrast, basic education will receive R164-billion; an increase of almost 6%. Universities will have almost R29-billion at their disposal, up 7% from last year.
Some of tertiary education's deepened coffers are directly thanks to the basic education department's failure to deliver. Nearly R1.7-billion originally earmarked for infrastructure backlogs was removed from Motshekga's department altogether and goven to Higher Education and Training Minister Blade Nzimande for his two new universities in Mpumalanga and the Northern Cape.
Unsuitable buildings
The fine print of Gordhan's budget documentation showed quite how poorly the basic education had approached infrastructure. In the last financial year, the department received R2.3-billion to replace 496 schools with unsuitable buildings and to provide 1 257 schools with water, 878 schools with electricity and 868 schools with sanitation.
The department earmarked 49 mud schools in the Eastern Cape, which it undertook to eradicate and replace by the end of 2012/13. But the end of the year, only 12 of these schools had been replaced, and 106 schools had been provided with water, 144 with sanitation and 118 with electricity.
According to non-govermental organisation Equal Education – which launched last year's legal action over school infrastructure against Motshekga – Basic Education Deputy Minister Enver Surty admitted to portfolio committee members that the department underspent its budget by R1.8-billion by the end of the third quarter.
Gordhan clearly had enough of those departments that "struggle to spend their full infrastructure budgets". He said: "money has been taken away from programmes that are not performing … and given to programmes that are delivering as planned".
Reduced spending
As a result, the basic education department's allocation of R5.4-billion for infrastructure last year was increased only to R7.9-billion this year, reducing the originally projected spending by R1.65-billion. School infrastructure backlogs will have to be addressed in a five-year period, not three years as was planned, said Gordhan.
Another rebuke to the department came in the re-channelling of another R1.1-billion, also originally earmarked for infrastructure, to the building of community libraries.
But Gordhan had only good news for Nzimande, and universities in particular – they will be the "spend focus" of the department for 2013/14. "This is intended to increase the number of university graduates, particularly in scarce skills areas, and provide access to universities and colleges for poor students by providing loans and bursaries," the budget's supporting documents read.
The National Student Financial Aid Scheme increased in 2013/4 to R6-billion, up from R5.4-billion last year. This will take the numbers of students receiving state financial assistance to nearly 420 000 – well above last year's 290 000.

I am 57 and was laid off most of last year. I am currently working but making at least $16,500 less than I was before being laid off. My home is being reviewed for a remodification. I have no savings and no retirement. Just trying to determine what I need to turn things around and I am starting with the credit cards.

The statute of limitations for how long an account remains on your credit report is 7 & 1/2 years from the date you went past-due or delinquent. If you pay them off now, they will stay on your account for 7 & 1/2 years from the date you paid them off. If you are getting close to the fall-off date, I'd wait it out and save yourself the money. Just my opinion, however. Best of luck!

TMC´s Internet Telephony Recognizes Omnix Family with Its Product Of The Year & Best of Show Winner Awards
SAN DIEGO, Calif., March 12 2001 - ICS Advent, the premier provider of stable computing platforms and platform integration services for next generation network solutions, today announced that its OmnixTM family of solutions received two top industry awards from Technology Marketing Corporation´s (TMC) Internet Telephony®.
ICS Advent was recognized by TMC as follows:
Internet Telephony magazine´s 2000 Product of the Year - The publication selected ICS Advent´s Omnix family of PC-based industrial computing platforms for this honor, citing innovation in product design and manufacturing that has made a positive impact on the convergence of voice and data. The award winners were selected by the editors of Internet Telephony magazine and the engineers of TMC Labs.
Internet Telephony Conference & EXPO Miami 2001 Best of Show winner - The conference named ICS Advent as one of its Best of Show winners for showmanship and recognized the Omnix family as a reflection of the company´s contributions to and leadership position in the Internet Telephony industry. Editors from Internet Telephony and Communications SolutionsTM magazines, who met with exhibitors and tried out new products, selected the winners.
"We are excited that our Omnix family continues to garner awards," said Jim Jameson, president and CEO of ICS Advent. "These awards are excellent industry recognition that proves that ICS Advent has been successful in delivering ground-breaking products, solutions and services, and we are committed to continuing to do so."
Introduced in July 2000, Omnix is a family of PC-based industrial computing platforms consisting of seven new systems that can be configured as rack-mounted or stand-alone with a full range of standard and option sub-systems and components.

Unlike conventional fixed-configuration backplanes, Omnix uses six basic building-block backplane segments that allow customers to quickly define their own optimized backplane designs.
Omnix is the result of a strategic ICS Advent initiative to achieve increased system flexibility while offering the industry´s fastest delivery schedules and most responsive customer support. The new Omnix suite complements the company´s existing platform offerings, which include low cost, single board computers, chassis and rack-mount systems; custom systems co-created with OEM, end user and systems integration partners; and completely integrated hardware/ software solutions supporting open communications systems (OCS) standards.

BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC (WWAY) — A crew of students is using the construction skills they learned in high school to serve the community.
If you heard a group of high school guys from the mountains was visiting the coast, you'd expect them to be headed straight to the beach. However this group is serving a different purpose.
"This is not costing us a cent, and I could not have afforded to have done this myself, so we're very blessed, and we're very honored to have them here today," homeowner Mary Johnson said.
Johnson's daughter Lynn was born with spina bifida. Despite the hardships of Lynn's condition, Mary says their lives have been full of blessings.
This week one of those blessings is in the form of free labor to make their home more handicap accessible.
Mark Lowman, a teacher from Draughn High School in Valdese, brought a crew of his students to work on Johnson's house.
"These guys get to see what they've learned put into practice, and they start it. You know, they get to design it all the way to completion, which is giving them job skills," Lowman said.
Lowman first teaches the students about basic safety, and they move on to working hands on with tools and equipment. This week they're using the skills they learned in the classroom to build a deck and a handicap ramp that lynn will can use without assistance.
"Part of our mission statement is not only to produce a student who's going to be viable in the community but to produce a young gentleman that's going to be a part of that," Lowman said.
Despite the heat and constant swatting at bugs, Lowman expects the new deck to be finished with the ramp installed before the team packs up and heads back home Friday.

Melding computation with imagination: Fox Harrell's work on "Phantasmal Media"
Thu, 05/22/2014
Press Contact
As the only CSAIL researcher with a dual appointment in MIT's program in Comparative Media Studies/Writing, Fox Harrell occupies an unusual spot in academia.
In his research group, the Imagination, Computation, and Expression Laboratory (ICE), Harrell and his students take formal analyses of thought — developed in cognitive science, psychology, sociology, and other fields — and develop computational programs that can be applied to computer games, social media, and other forms of emergent media.

Michael Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray, was found guilty Monday in the death of the pop singer.
The jury deliberated for two days and then announced the verdict Monday afternoon, USA Today reports. The jury found Murray guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
CNN reports that after a jury found Murray, 58, guilty of involuntary manslaughter, a crowd of Jackson fans cheered outside the courthouse.
The trail had lasted for six weeks and involved 33 prosecution witnesses, 16 defense witnesses and more than 340 exhibits.
Jackson, a global pop icon, died on June 25, 2009, after overdosing on propofol, a surgical anesthetic. He was 50.
The prosecutor, David Walgren, argued that Murray failed to fulfill his duty to care for his patient and committed acts of "criminal negligence," USA Today reports.
Walgren said Murray caused Jackson's death through acts of "criminal negligence" in using a hospital-grade drug for insomnia in Jackson's home without proper monitoring and resuscitation equipment. Murray also acted negligently in delaying 20 minutes before calling 911, attempting CPR incompetently and failing to tell rescue personnel he had used propofol, Walgren said.

other.They will let you bring your dog in and have special baskets for them and my dog loved it.The store was packed and everyone that passed us had to pet my dog and
it seems like we were there a long time.We then went to The Jerky store and the Chocolate Monkey that was in a shopping center next to Bass Pro shop.We then headed to
Waldens Landing and did some more shopping.I had to buy some more Bacon & Cheddar Popcorn,It is really good.My father in law loves John Wayne so we found alot of cool
things for him in some of the shops and my mother in law collects glass and all kinds of Giraffes so we bought her a few things and the kids got some stuff too.It was starting
to get dark so we headed to Gatlinburg and walked up and down the strip and did more shopping and took alot of pictures of all the Christmas lights and decorations on the strip.It was
very cold but we had a good time shopping and walking around.On the way back up to our cabin I stopped by Las Ositas Cantina & Grill on Ski Mountain Rd and I met Jessica(JessicaC4)
She was very nice and I really enjoyed talking to her.We were planning on eating there but they were closing for the next few days so we will eat there on our next trip.
We headed back to the cabin and had left overs from Old Mill for dinner.I was on the bottom balcony swinging and my husband was on the top balcony and he said Cindy do you
hear that and I said WHAT he said I think it is a Bear,he could hear the Bear coming up and braking branches on the ground.So I ran inside and on the top balcony and
so did everyone else and there was a Black Bear on the ground beside the lower balcony.We started taking some pictures then the Bear went around the cabin and was between
our cars so we went out front and the Bear climbed up a tree.We took a few more pictures but it was dark and on a couple of them you can see him/her and its eyes.We then
went back in and played some games and drank some wine.That was so exciting to see the Bear at the cabin and this was the second time a Bear had been at a cabin we rented.
In April this year we had a huge Bear come up to the cabin and go thru the trash.After we played some cards we all headed off to bed.
Day 3 Fri. Dec.24th Christmas Eve
We woke up earler and the grandparents took the kids shopping in Pigeon Forge.My daughter was having a fit to go to The Ralph Lauren,Juicy Couture,and the Coach shops to buy some
clothes and purses.Me and my hubby went up to Cades Cove and on the way up we saw a few Wild Turkeys and got some good pictures of them.Once we got in to Cades Cove there
wasnt hardly noone there.We must have seen close to 50-75 Deer but no Bears.We drove all thru the loop and thru Parson Branch but it was closed so we went all the way down and
it made a loop and drove back to Cades Cove.We stopped at the Grist Mill so I couple purchase some more Corn Meal and some Dillsboro Chocolate Bars and some Chow Chow for hubby.
After Cades Cove we drove up to New Found Gap and the drive was beautiful with all the snow covered trees.There were alot of people up there taking videos and pictures as the Sun
was starting to go down.We then wanted to drive to Cherokee Orchard road and we made to loop and I looked off to the right side and saw a Huge Black Bear.I took some
pictures and videos and there was another couple driving by and I stopped them and told them there was a Bear so they pulled off and took some pictures too.After that we drove
around Gatlinburg looking at all the Christmas lights again.Bennetts BBQ was decked out big time and it was beautiful.River Road was beautiful and had lights everywhere.
It was late so we headed back to the cabin because it was starting to snow.Once we got to the cabin it started snowing pretty hard and it was so exciting to see snow on
Christmas Eve.We played some more games ate alot of junk food and watched some Christmas movies and then we got in the hot tub watching it snow.We then went to bed.
Day 4 Sat. Dec. 25th
Wow we woke up and looked outside to a "White Winter Wonderland" there was at least 5 inches of snow.And it was snowing pretty hard.I wanted to get out to go to the store to
but some more milk and batteries and a couple of things so we creeped down the mountain very slow and drove into Pigeon Forge to Walgreens since that was the only place that
was really open.Gatlinburg and Pigeon Foege were beautiful covered in snow As we were coming back up to the cabin the car was sideways and we tryed to make it up the mountain
but kept sliding so we put some sticks on the road and made it to the cabin.We then cooked a huge Christmas morning breakfast.We all dressed up in a ton of clothes and went
out and played in the snow and had a couple of snow ball fights.We had some much fun Christmas day and I was wanting it to SNOW on Christmas Day and I got my wish.It snowed
and snowed and snowed all day long and we got another 5-6 inches Christmas Day.We made some homemade Snow ice cream and it was goooood.We played some more games and sat out
on the balcony and watched it snow all day long.Later that evening we cooked our Christmas dinner and it was awesome.It snowed all night.We watched more Christmas movies and
then went to bed.
Day 5 Sun. Dec.26th
We woke up early and it had snowed another 6 inches durning the night and the road was covered so we cooked some pancakes,eggs,bacon and stayed at the cabin all day
long and watched tv(must have watched The Vistors channel for 3-4 hours) and played some games and played in the snow for hours and it snowed all day on Sunday too.We must
have gotten at least a foot and a half of snow from Friday night to Sunday night.We snacked all day and that night we grilled a Boston Butt and had BBQ for dinner.We
knew we wasnt going to be able to leave in the morning so we called the cabin company to let them know we would be staying another night and it wasnt rented out so we could.
We were all tired so we headed to bed around 11:00 pm.
Day 5 Mon.Dec.27th
We woke up and "Snow Plow Man " had plowed the street and put down some salt so we ate breakfast and we wanted to take the kids to Ober Gatlinburg to go Snow Tubing.We drove
up to Ober and Thank God they only had 6 parking places left.When we got there around 12:00pm they were sold out of the 1:00 and 3:00 snow tube sessions so we had to buy the
5:00 session.The kids went ice skating and we sat around and watched people snow tube,snow board and ski.It was alot of fun and it seemed like the time went by quickly.
It was around 4:45 so we headed to Snow Tube.My husband didnt do it but me and our 2 teenagers did and we had a great time.The man working at the top pushed me down
and I went into a spin and went down backwards with my feet up in the air it was scary but fun and I took a video while I was riding down,It seemed like that hour and a half went by quick.
After snow tubing my husband and step son wanted us to drop them off on the Gatlinburg Strip so they could shop and me and my daughter went into Pigeon Forge to exchange
a couple of here Polo shirts for a bigger size and on the way back I had to stop and pick up more popcorn and we stopped at Krispy Kreme Donuts because the Hot light
was on and they wwere so darn good and hot.We headed back to Gatlinburg and my step son called and said my husband had slipped down on the icey sidewalk in Gatlinburg and hit
his head.He had a huge bump but wouldnt let me take him to the hospital so I gave him a couple of tylenols for his headache but he got better.They said the sidewalk
that was right in front of Riverside otor Lodge was very icey and saw alot of people fall down and one lady got hurt pretty bad.You would think the City Of Gatlinburg would
salt the sidewalks off.We headed back to the cabin to start packing so we could check out on Tuesday morning.
Day 6 Tues. Dec 28th
Time to go home.We got the car all packed up and it was filled up with all kinds of gifts,luggage,food etc. We headed to Auntie Belhams in Pigeon Forge to check out and then went
to Cracker Barrell.We had a wonderful Christmas in The Smokies and Gatlinburg and I cant wait to go back again.This was my 4th trip in 2010 and I hope I am able to go back
every 2 months next year.I have 2 girls trips planned and then me and hubby we go at least another 3 times or more.He has alot of vacation days saved up so we should be
able to.Coming to Gatlinburg in the Winter is nice but I think I like the Spring and Fall better and the weather is nicer.Thank you God for giving me the White Christmas
that I asked for and spending alot of time with my family and getting home safe.

NEWMARKET -- Two jurors wept as former Maple Leaf captain Rob Ramage was found guilty yesterday of impaired driving causing the death of his friend and retired NHL player, Keith Magnuson.
Ramage hugged and consoled his grief-stricken wife, Dawn, in the emotion-filled courtroom where almost a dozen of his family and friends, including Hall of Famer Andy Bathgate, were present to hear the verdict. All were visibly shaken.
After five hours of deliberations, the jury rendered its verdict and found Ramage guilty of all five charges stemming from a horrific crash on Dec. 15, 2003. Michelle Pacheco, a 39-year-old mother, suffered a fractured heel when her vehicle was struck by Ramage's.
"It has been a tremendous tragedy since the day of the accident," a sorrowful Ramage said after the verdict." My heart and prayers go out to (Magnuson's widow) Cindy, and his children. This has been a tragedy for all involved in both families."
Ramage's convictions will likely result in a prison sentence -- between two and five years -- and the end of a successful career as a financial adviser in St. Louis.
Ramage was convicted of impaired and dangerous driving causing the death of Magnuson, impaired and dangerous driving causing bodily harm to Pacheco, and having a blood-alcohol level over the legal limit.
Magnuson's widow phoned to provide encouragement to Ramage, 48, as the jury deliberated on Tuesday, Ramage's lawyer, Brian Greenspan, said.
"This has taken a huge personal toll on Rob, his wife and (their) three kids," Greenspan said. "This conviction will end his life in St. Louis and he will have to rebuild his life in Canada, where he has earned the admiration and respect of many in the community."
Greenspan wouldn't comment on possible sentences, but said, "the range of punishment is a sentence involving imprisonment."
Justice Alexander Sosna will hear sentencing submissions on Dec. 18 and sentence Ramage on Jan. 17. Ramage, who has been free on bail for four years, returned to St. Louis.
Ramage was driving eastbound on Rutherford Rd. between Islington Ave. and Pine Valley Dr. when his rented Intrepid vehicle crossed four lanes of traffic and into on-coming traffic, clipping another vehicle before colliding with Pacheco's Pathfinder.
Magnuson, 56, a married father of two grown children who played in the NHL for 11 seasons, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The revolutionary CP-A100 3LCD projector features a very short throw distance, eliminating the problem of presenters obstructing the projected image by standing in front of the screen. Additionally, the CP-A100 offers networking capability, allowing multiple projectors to be controlled and monitored from a single location.
The CP-A100 boasts an extremely short throw distance; at 1.4 feet you can project a 60 inch image. This not only prevents image obstruction, but also means there are no shadows interfering with the image and no light in the presenters face. The versatile CP-A100 can be placed vertically as well as horizontally, as well as inverted for ceiling mount applications, making positioning of the projector more convenient.
Adding to the users convenience is the network connectivity of the CP-A100, which allows for simultaneous monitoring and control of several projectors from a remote location. This is particularly beneficial in schools and large corporate environments, where projectors are located throughout a facility and the monitoring of each projector is a time-consuming ordeal. With the benefits of networking technology, a technician can monitor details such as lamp life for each projector from his/her computer. Additionally, the CP-A100s performance stands alone among competitive models. It offers a brightness of 2,500 ANSI lumens, XGA resolution and a 500:1 contrast ratio.
The CP-A100 addresses the issue of security with functions such as multilevel PIN locks, a security bar and a Kensington slot. Moreover, the CP-A100 is easy to use, featuring advanced connectivity and proprietary Hitachi functions including My Buttons, Input Source Naming and My Text. The CP-A100s E-Shot feature allows users to transfer up to four still images from a computer to the projector.
Easy maintenance is another attractive function of the CP-A100, as its lamp door is on top of the model, and the filter is located on the back, allowing for easy access. The CP-A100 offers additional versatility with its Whiteboard, Blackboard or Day Time Mode

Clive Palmer to concentrate only on politics0:59
Billionaire MP Clive Palmer says he is now a 'full time' politician, and he is 'fully retired' from business.
THE war of words between Clive Palmer and Premier Campbell Newman has escalated, with the billionaire MP accusing Mr Newman of having a "bipolar condition".
Mr Palmer returned fire at the Premier, who let fly his own salvo earlier today, at a press conference to announce he would not be voting on carbon tax repeal legislation because he wanted to avoid perceptions of a conflict of interest.
He said that was why he had been absent from the chamber.
"If anyone was going to bully me, I'd sue them," he said.
"Campbell certainly hasn't done anything. He's a nice little fellow with a bipolar condition and sometimes he doesn't take his medication.
"I'd advise Campbell Newman to take your medication and calm down."
A government spokesman labeled Mr Palmer's personal attack on Mr Newman as insensitive.
"Mr Palmer's insensitive comments show a total lack of empathy towards people who are actually dealing with the condition," he said.
"It appears he has not learnt a thing since first making such comments in August."
Mr Palmer also attacked Attorney-General Jarrod Bleijie as "not the brightest flashbulb in the cabinet".
Mr Newman, he said, would not be getting a name-check during his maiden speech.
"I don't think he's worth mentioning," he said.
He also denied he ever asked for a casino licence.
Mr Palmer denied he had any undue influence over his Senate team, saying they had no conflict of interest whatsoever.
While he acknowledged his own potential conflict of interest, he said he did not believe he truly had one.
He will also be abstaining on mining tax issues.
Mr Palmer also threatened to withhold investment in Queensland until a leadership change was achieved.
"I wouldn't invest in Queensland while Campbell Newman's Premier in anything," he said.
Earlier, Mr Newman lashed Mr Palmer, accusing him of seeking preferential treatment and giving inaccurate accounts of meetings he has held with himself and the government.
Mr Newman also revealed he felt pressured at one such meeting where Mr Palmer laid out plans for a redevelopment of his Coolum resort.
"Here are the facts as we see them," Mr Newman told the ABC.
"Mr Palmer tried to seek preferential treatment from my government. We said to him that we would welcome investment in this state whether it be coal mining or tourism … but that he had to follow the due process that everybody else followed.
"He didn't like that and through a number of meetings with people like Jeff Seeney and myself he increasingly became more strident and agitated. He seemed to want us to do things that just simply are not right.
"I notice he continues to cast these slurs on us … of corruption and terrible things. We have written to the CMC ourselves, not to complain him but essentially to say: 'Investigate us. Mr Palmer seems to have some allegation. We are sick of him making that allegation, please go and ask him to put the evidence on the table'."
Mr Newman described a meeting held at the Sofitel hotel in Melbourne on July 1 last year which he said was attended by himself, his chief of staff Ben Myers and LNP president Bruce McIver.
"At that meeting Mr Palmer showed us concept plans for his proposed resort development at Coolum on the Sunshine Coast. Frankly it shocked me," he said.
"There were very large buildings, huge buildings but more interestingly buildings were proposed on sand dunes adjacent to the current Coolum resort that he owns. That was on land owned by the people of Queensland.
"He said that he wanted a casino licence. The plan showed a monorail going from this resort with these very tall buildings.
"I was respectful but tried to convey to him my concerns with what he was proposing. I was concerned that he was proposing a development on public land. I also indicated the government had no policy position at that stage on a casino licence.
"He was proposing to build stuff on public land owned by the people of Queensland and I felt as a significant member of the party that I was under quite a lot of pressure to somehow say yes at this meeting.
"Subsequently he has claimed that he never wanted a casino licence. That's completely false.
"These are facts. Clive Palmer says things all the time that frankly I can't agree with and I don't believe are true.
Mr Newman also denied a fundraiser was held for him at Mr Palmer's home.
"I have attended Mr Palmer's house once in early to mid 2011.
"The people at his house that evening were myself, my wife Lisa and, Mr McIver and his wife Chris, Mr Palmer and his wife Anna.
"I am totally unaware of any fundraising event conducted there for me or the LNP.
"I have asked Mr McIver subsequently and he said there was no such fundraising event.
"Mr Palmer says these things, he makes allegations of corruption. They are not true."
Mr Newman said Mr Palmer was also seeking preferential treatment in relation to a proposed railway line in the Galilee basin including presenting Deputy Premier Jeff Seeney with draft legislation regarding the project that he wanted introduced into State Parliament.
"We were shocked," Mr Newman said.
"He wanted the Palmer railway line. He wanted a deal for him and he wanted special legislation."
Mr Newman said Mr Palmer had a growing environmental issue with his Townsville nickel refinery due to the "thousands and thousands of litres of contaminated water that he sought to discharge out into the Great Barrier Reef waters…because his dams there don't have the capacity".
"He wanted to discharge pollutants into the Great Barrier Reef and we said no.
"It's still a concern to the Queensland Government and Andrew Powell, the Environment Minister, and his team are seeking action by the Palmer group of companies."
Mr Newman also called on Mr Palmer to come good on his promise to employ 500 more people at the refinery and to guarantee the jobs of employees already working there.
"He keeps telling us that everything is fine but we are hearing a lot of questions about what's going on and they haven't fixed up the environmental problems."
"Why has there been a falling out. He wanted to do something that we could not in good conscience, in any way shape or from agree to."
Opposition leader Annastacia Palaszczuk accused Mr Newman of commenting on Mr Palmer in order to distract from other "sideshows" including the "grilling" of acting CMC chair Dr Ken Levy at a meeting of the parliamentary Crime and Misconduct Committee today.
Dr Levy has come under fire for forgetting to tell the committee the CMC was approached by the government media unit before he decided to publicly support the bikie crackdown.
He corrected the record last week but maintained the contact did not influence his decision to publicly support new anti-bikie laws.
"Today we have heard very serious allegations by the Premier of this state about Clive Palmer," Ms Palaszczuk said.
"The real question is why for 16 months has the Premier put these issues in the bottom draw.
"The Premier should have brought these matters to the CMC as soon as possible.
"But we know the real reason why this slanging match has started today between the Premier and Clive Palmer, because there are two other sideshows in town.
"The first is the illegitimate chair of the CMC who is facing a grilling before the parliamentary committee this morning and his (Mr Newman's) failed ex Minister Ros Bates who's been accused of bullying down the other end of town."
Originally published as Palmer: I won't invest under Newman

Just want to clarify:
The online draft is being held this Sunday at 9:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, correct?
I set a Yahoo! Reminder on my calander, and it said the draft was from 6:30 - 9:30 p.m., which I assumed was wrong, but wanted to make sure.
Thanks. Look forward to a fun fantasy football season!

AVEO Pharmaceuticals Inc.'s initial public offering priced below expectations, resulting in $81 million in proceeds, the biotechnology company said Friday.
AVEO, which develops cancer therapies, sold 9 million shares for $9 apiece. It had hoped to raise about $98 million by selling 7 million shares at between $13 and $15 each.
This year, 11 IPOs have priced below expectations, and only seven have priced within the range initially set by the company and its underwriters. None have priced above.
A volatile stock market and economic worries have made it harder to sell investors on IPOs, which are perceived as riskier than publicly held companies.
AVEO shares are expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "AVEO" on Friday.

CANNES, France, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- Resolving Europe's debt crisis is the top priority for Group of 20 leaders meeting in France to discuss the global economy, President Obama said Thursday.
"I think it's no surprise that we spent most of our conversation focused on strengthening the global economic recovery so that we are creating jobs for our people and stabilizing the financial markets around the world," Obama said in a media appearance with French President Nicolas Sarkozy after the two leaders met in Cannes. "The most important aspect of our task over the next two days is to resolve the financial crisis here in Europe."
Obama said the European Union has taken steps toward a comprehensive solution with Sarkozy's leadership.
"But here at the G20 we're going to have to flesh out more of the details about how the plan will be fully and decisively implemented," Obama said.
He said the two leaders also discussed the situation in Greece and how to resolve it as well.
"And the United States will continue to be a partner with the Europeans to resolve these challenges," Obama said.
Also discussed was the "continuing threat posed by Iran's nuclear program," Obama said, noting the International Atomic Energy Agency is to release its report on Iran's nuclear program next week.
"President Sarkozy and I agreed on the need to maintain the unprecedented international pressure on Iran to meet its obligations," he said.
Sarkozy, through an interpreter, said Europe needs the "solidarity and the support" of the United States.
"Together, President Obama and [I] are trying to build the unity of the G20," Sarkozy said. "And I wish to pay tribute to the United States for understanding about all the issues we'll be discussing over the next 48 hours, and in particular, the issue of the Greek crisis -- the difficulty that the euro is facing, the need to be hand-in-glove with the United States on the language of the final communique."
Obama also recognized the efforts by German Chancellor Angela Merkel in discussions about the European debt crisis after he met with her.
"Central to our discussions at the G20 is how do we achieve greater global growth and put people back to work. That means we're going to have to resolve the situation here in Europe," Obama said. "And without Angela's leadership we would not have already made the progress that we've seen at the EU meeting on Oct. 27."
Merkel, through an interpreter, said the G20 summit would provide the chance "not only to talk about European matters but also about global matters that matter to both of us and that are of common interest."
At a news conference in Cannes, Ben Rhodes, deputy national security adviser for strategic communication, told reporters in Cannes world leaders are "very committed to dealing with this challenge with a sense of urgency."
Undersecretary for International Affairs Lael Brainard said the "best insurance policy" for the United States would be for Congress to enact Obama's jobs act proposals.
"Our recovery is still fragile and vulnerable to events beyond our shores. And that's why it's so important for us to make sure that we have in place the payroll tax cut, the infrastructure financing, the mechanisms that he's proposed to get people back on the job," Brainard said.

You read it here first. The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past few weeks, sparking calls for increased patrols to stop the illegal immigration. The re-election of President Bush has prompted the exodus among left-leaning citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray and agree with Bill O'Reilly. And, somehow, books such as The Handmaid's Tale by Canadian author Margaret Atwood will be banned. Terrified sources say Dubya hasn't really read a book since he read the one about the little goat on September 11, 2001. If that's true, and he never read Atwood's horrifying tale about the religious right and America's possible future, then Atwood, besides being Canadian, could be eerily prescient.
Why we love Canada, and why it is perennially our fantasy escape in times of trouble--the draft, the draft, the Neo-Conservatives, the draft--is easy to explain. Canadians--peace-loving, enlightened, humane, polite--invented the IMAX movie. It started at Montreal's EXPO '67, where an exhibit of multiscreen films was a huge hit. A small group of Canadian filmmakers/entrepreneurs, who had made some of those popular films, decided to design a new system using a single, powerful projector, rather than cumbersome multiple projectors. The IMAX motion picture projection system was the result. If Bush's second term does eventually mandate prayer, say a special one for the original creative partnership--Grahame Ferguson, Roman Kroltor and Robert Kerr. All Canadians. All the time.
Meanwhile, take a break from holiday hoo-ha this week and see some stunning IMAX films on screens around Dallas. Another historical tidbit: Roughly 50 percent of IMAX theaters are located within museums, planetariums and science centers; the other half are part of commercial movie complexes. And one more thing--the United States has 60 percent of worldwide IMAX venues. Dallas-Fort Worth seems to mirror precisely that statistic, with two IMAX theaters in museums and one in the hulking Cinemark complex, 11819 Webb Chapel Road.
See www.imax.com for complete schedules for all IMAX theater locations.

Solar Max offers an unusual peek, 92 million miles away, at the "solarmax" storm, which occurs every 11 years or so, when the sun's poles reverse with "unimaginable violence." Click on www.fortworthmuseum.com for various show times for weekdays and weekends. Admission to the theater only is $7 for adults or $6 for seniors and children. The museum's "combo price" for theater and museum exhibits is $13 for adults or $11 for seniors and children. Located at 1501 Montgomery St. in Fort Worth's Cultural District, the FWMSH offers tickets and information at 817-255-9300 or 1-888-255-9300.
Dallas' The Science Place presents Horses: The Story of Equus in a dramatic, artful and scientific IMAX film about "the noblest animal of them all." Underwater drama and swimming animals can be seen in Into the Deep, which ends this week with Sunday showings at 1:45 p.m. and 3:55 p.m. Opening Saturday is Titanica, the adventurous, dangerous and dramatic nonfiction film that follows the deep-sea explorers who found the Titanic shipwreck in 1991. The Science Place, at 1318 Second Ave., sells IMAX tickets by phone (214-428-5555) or online (email@example.com). Admission is $7 per adult and $6 per senior and child.
In Canada, we imagine there's an IMAX on every corner, with homemade French pastries, astonishing blends of hot tea and crumpets, gay marriage and a great swelling of tolerance and love for all its American neighbors. Save for one.

The Made in Italy Business Directory
High-level training aimed at two important groups of target users: entrepreneurs and researchers, from Italy and America. That's what will be offered by the Italian Trade Commission (the Agency for promotion abroad and internationalisation of Italian businesses) in Philadelphia in the United States on the subject of technology transfer. The dates are set for June 12 and 13 for the training course that promises to be truly complete as it will be carried out in collaboration with the non-profit Sbarro Health Research Organization and Innova Consulting Group, a company that operates in the services industry for technological transfer.
The choice of Philadelphia, and the American market in general, was not random: with a series of activities aimed at encouraging technical-scientific collaboration and the creation of a spin-off company, the Italian Trade Commission intended to take stock of the need of Italian researchers working in the area to develop technological, scientific and commercial relationships with Italy. In this sense the seminar is a launch trampoline for the creation of a spin-off of the company within Italy and its objective is to uphold Italian technological know-how in the United States.
The non-profit Sbarro Health Research Organization, chaired by professor Antonio Giordano, an expert in cancer genetics, will host the works and will fund clinical researchers, molecular biologists, geneticists, physicists and bio mathematicians studying the molecular mechanisms of cancer. Moreover, Sbarro Health Research Organization, has important partners in Italy, and actually collaborates with the Department of Human Pathology and Oncology at the University of Siena and has contacts with "La Sapienza" University, with the University of Naples Federico II with the non-profit HFH (Human Health Foundation) and with Crom (Centro di ricerche oncologiche – Centre for Oncological Research) in Mercogliano.
Furthermore, it is forming the first Italian incubator in the USA specialising in support for innovation and technology transfer between Italy and the United States. Sectors with strong technological investment such as molecular biology (Sbarro's area of interest) will lead the way in the seminar. In this sector, as in others with a high degree of specialisation, Italian knowledge is considered to be among the most advanced in the world and ties in well with the latest technologies developed in the USA. This is the starting point for the "transfer" of know-how and technology that makes the company's most important incubators "virtuoso".

DIAGEO's latest £1.1 billion offer to secure another 26% stake in India's United Spirits is expensive, analysts have warned but could pay off in the long run.
The Johnnie Walker whisky maker, which holds 28.8% of United Spirits and already has management control, has offered to buy 38 million shares at 3030 rupees (£30) each, compared to 1440 rupees in its initial failed purchase attempt last year. The offer is also at a premium of 18.5% to United Spirits' previous closing price.
Diageo's shares fell 7.00p or 0.37% to 1910p on the news.

The company, which has its headquarters in London, has already spent £728 million building a 28.8% holding in Diageo, much of it purchased from tycoon Vijay Mallya, with additional shares picked up in the market last year.
But Diageo's initial offer to buy another 26% of United Spirits from investors failed last year as its share price soared well above the offer price.
If successful, Diageo, the world's largest spirits maker, will own 54.8% of India's largest spirits maker, guaranteeing majority control of the company.
Currently Diageo has effective control of United Spirits because United Breweries and Mr Mallya, who relinquished control after running into financial difficulties, have agreed to vote with Diageo for four years.
Diageo, which makes Bell's whisky, is currently seeking a buyer for much of United Spirits' whisky arm Whyte & Mackay after competition officials decided they overlap too much in the UK.
If fully subscribed, the offer would be at a 38 times multiple of United Spirits' earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation for the year ended March 2013.
Analysts at broker Raymond James said if the deal comes off it "could ultimately be positive news" by boosting Diageo's presence in the fast-growing Indian market.
"United Spirits' strong positions and distribution network would be good leverage for Diageo's spirits brands. However, the price paid for USL is expensive," the broker added.
Andrea Pistacchi, analyst at Citigroup said the price looked high.
But she added: "In our view Diageo is doing the right thing, given the very significant long-term upside for the Indian spirits market and the opportunity, we believe, to significantly raise United Spirits' margins over time."
Diageo remains tied up in legal cases against creditors of United Breweries and United Spirits Benefit Trust from whom it bought shares.
India is the world's largest whisky market. Currently much of this is locally-produced spirit.

| well, the reason we have so few is that people have been slower than molasses validating new supercentenarians. Cases like Mathilde Aussant, Olympe Pidancet, Denise Fetrot, Betty Rutherford, Elsa Everly, Pinkie Galbreath, should ahve already been validated. Maria de la Soria-Berbel as supposedly already validated but has yet to be added to list, according to Filipe, the same was also said about Rutherford, but she is not on the list either. Emily Lavoie should have been confirmed, and at the least so should have Freida Tessemer. We should have over 80 supercentenarians right now, but the validation is just not happening. The last validation we have is from April, and she really just popped out of nowhere, one day she was just added on the list, she was never even on the unverified list. It took a long time to validate Dr. Denmark, when it shouldn't have, and it took months just to get Epsie Pike Wilson validated. As more new cases come in, and old ones are validated, I expect the total number of living supers to rise into the ninties.
These national record holders could celebrate there 110th birthdays this year:
1. Romanie Pollet, Belgium F
2. Marie Kraslova, Czech. Republic F
3. Delfino Borroni, Italy, M
4. Marie Edith Andre, Mauritus F
5. Gunda Harangen, Norway F
These people claim to already have, but are not even on the unverified list:

Hermina Dunz has yet to be confirmed.

|QUOTE (ryoung122 @ May 28 2008, 05:31 PM)
Let me say just this: I think that many persons comprehensively misunderstand the GRG list...the main purpose is to ensure, firstly, that we have a replacement candidate should the world's oldest person pass away. Do any of you kids remember the 'good ole days'...on Jan 11 1988, Florence Knapp passed away just 15 days after Anna Eliza Williams. Guinness at first gave the title to Maren Bolette Torp (later 7th-oldest), then Orpha Nusbaum, then Birdie May Vogt, then Jeanne Calment, then Carrie White.
In 2000, following the death of Sarah Knauss, the candidate search led to a ridiculous claim that a 107-year-old woman from Scotland was world's oldest (notwithstanding the fact that she was already dead). We saw reports that the titleholder was 109 (Lottie Elliott, Agnes Kinnear) and after three months, finally we had a winner...Eva Morris.
These events have not repeated themselves since the GRG became the primary (but not only) source for the Guinness 'oldest person' title.
Please note the GRG list includes a disclaimer that the true actual world count of supercentenarians should be higher.
Now, I ask: if the first and primary task is to ensure a steady transition of the #1 spot, wouldn't it make since to first investigate cases such as Mary Davis or Carrie Berrian? Those born in 1898 won't be in the running until 2012...so we have many years to get to them.
Also, in many cases we rely on volunteer work for validation. If Laurent Toussaint decides not to validate the French cases, and no one else has volunteered, then what?
Finally, what do you mean "Emily Lavoie should have been confirmed"...the family just e-mailed me to apologize for not sending anything yet. People have jobs and lives and other things to do. If you can't wait, well does not Wikipedia have a list of likely candidates? You could make your own list...but soon you'll run into issues: do I include cases only because I believe them to be true? Why do I believe in Frieda Tessmer? If we accept 'all' cases from Europe then what about the 116-year-old claim from Spain? Or how about Eastern Europe?

| And on a side note, if you think the GRG supercentenarians are going low, you may want to compare it to years like 2004 (where there were records) that make this year seem high.
I once saw a back-up page of table E on the GRG site from 2004, where they listed either Hendrikje van Andel-Schipper or Charlotte Benkner as the oldest. There were only 41 supercentenarians on it.
|QUOTE (waalkwriter @ Jun 4 2008, 09:02 PM)
| But on another note Robert, I am offended by your remarks. You seem overly defensive. Surely a world famous Gerontologist has the security to take a little unfounded criticism a little lighter, afterall I'm just a scrabbler from nowhere Lousiana, with no formal training or experience in the field. As said though, you're defensive, overly aggresive, and you really give the impression of looking down and spitting on people whenever you argue with them, even when it's just a harmless, simple issue, that could be handled very calmly and politely.
As for Scott McClellan's book, I've read it, it was very good, but it told me nothing I didn't already know. I knew that Bush cherrypicked information to justify the Iraq War. The whitehouse blames the CIA, saying, they gave us false information, waa waa, boo hoo. Not true. The CIA gave conflicting intelligence reports the whole time, some suggesting different things, many suggesting no nuclear weapons. Experienced foriegn policy expert Joseph Wilson, who was an ambassador under four presidents, Republicans and Democrats, was sent to investigate the Nigerian "Yellow Cake" claim. After an extensive investigation, his report concluded their was absolutely no foundation or merit to the rumor. Then Bush says evidence has been found to verifty the Yellow Cake report. He wrote an editorial to dispute the "evidence" Bush said had been found. Not that Bush would now anything. His staff has said he does not like to read security reports, as evidenced by the report on the threat of an AL-Queda attack on America that laid unread on his desk while he was on vacation in Crawford Texas, just months before 9/11. What he does, is have neo-con insiders give him verbal briefings. Anyway, back to point, just months after that Scooter Libby leaks the identity of his wife, who was a covert agent, ending her distinguished career as a CIA agent, nad possible endangering any agent she had worked. Why? To try to discredit Wilson by suggesting his wife set up the trip was basically the goal. That alone is good evidence. There is much more though.
I may not be an expert on Gerontology, but Politics, this is my field, and not probably not yours. I served in Washington for a time as a Senate Page, working on the Senate Floor. I read through 10 to 40 pages of political reports a day, consult campaigns occasionally, and am a guest poster on political sites. My raw knowledge of politics confounds some people who have worked with it for years. I live in Louisiana, but can state a redistricting plan for New York, that uses my knowledge of the voting patterns of it's individual counties to create an all Democratic Delegation with several Republican leaning and swing districts. I can name and indentify every US Senator, their state, their party, the year they were elected, and even their opinions. I can do the same for at least two hundred U.S. Representatives, and have an extensive knowledge of U.S. Congressional Districts. At age 13 I wrote a policy and campaign essay to Sen. Blanche Lincolns office, they offered me an internship before they found out I was too young, and they were very surprised to find out so. Blah blah. Enough about politics. This really should be in the Lounge Room, but I felt it better to address your statements here, where they were made.

A growing number of businesses are following the lead of global brands. such as Google, Accenture and Deloitte, by abandoning the performance review in favour of more regular feedback. Problems arise when HR ceases to have contact of any kind with its staff, which is the very real experience of UK workers.
Less than half of all employees had any involvement with HR representatives within the last 12 months, according to YouGov. If your business is ditching the annual performance review – or has yet to implement a strategy of any type – the gap it leaves must be filled with a system that works.
The following steps will help to address the gap left by companies that abandon the performance review or fail to implement a performance management strategy:-
Carry out regular check-ins : Follow the example of Adobe which cut voluntary turnover levels by 30% after ditching performance reviews in favour of a 'check-in' programme. Set up regular meetings to coach your people, provide assistance with performance improvement and offer advice and guidance on their ongoing career development and growth. This type of feedback is more relevant to employees than an annual appraisal.

The Verdict
Not worth $20. If you have purchased it, try and make the best of it. The development team should have targeted their priorities better. Everything about this game seems very half baked and more time could have been spent on perfecting specific areas as opposed to being a jack-of-all-trades.
The Good
Good voice acting
Level progression
The Bad
Awful camera
Level detail
Frustrating combat


text: http://www.daytondailynews.com/blog...009/03/11/draft_sleeper_wr_julius_pruitt.html I read in Armando's blog that Pruitt has been looking good this offseason. He seems to have all the stuff. Could he be a dark horse?? What kind of WR is he??? A possesion guy? Who is he in direct competition with to play that kind of role??? Wallace, BJ Cunningham,Naanee, Matthews ?? The receiver spots are going to be just super overloaded with RB and TE positions taking snaps away from WR's as well. Everybody knows we are going to throw to Reggie a lot; maybe even as much as the #3 WR. I have even heard it speculated that if Reggie Bush stays healthy he could be the Dolphins leading receiver this year. I saw it reported today that Lamar Miller could be used in the slot as well. It is also being speculated that Clay and Egnew will lining up in WR spots as well. I think I have to agree with the guys who are saying that this offense doesn't need a single prime target at WR; a so called, go to guy. IMO, the Dolphins are looking filthy rich as far as receiving targets.

Tree maintenance workshop is set
Hug a tree … or better yet, learn how to care for it.
That's the message the city of Oakley is conveying with two free presentations on tree maintenance that it's offering the public next month.
With the help of state bond funds, the city's Parks and Landscape Division is promoting the benefits of "urban greening" — among them higher property values, cleaner air and a prettier city — by teaching people how to keep trees healthy.
The first workshop is 7 p.m. Nov. 6 at Oakley City Hall, 3231 Main St., where a professional arborist will show participants how to choose the best tree and plant it the right way in the proper spot.
The second class will be at 7 p.m. the next day — Nov. 7 — at City Hall, and will provide the basics of pruning trees: When to do it, how to cut a branch the right way, and how to stake saplings correctly.

Should I stay in my internship or should I leave?
So I really don't know what to do right now. I know this is long, but please power through. I need outside opinions.
I interviewed for this job in December last year and was offered the internship. At the time, I had no other options even remotely possible and registration was the first week of January so I accepted. Two days before I started, I received an email from another company that I applied to (and for an internship position that is better suited to my chosen field). They said they were interested and wanted to interview me. A day after that I received another email from yet ANOTHER company; basically it seems like all these places want to choose their interns weeks after registration and the start of classes. Since it was only confirmation for an interview, I told them I would interview but didn't tell my accepted internship. Yesterday I went for the first time. They are a small company and are really nice, but I found out that apparently I am required to work 15 hours a week. This wasn't noted on their application, job posting, or in the interview. They didn't specify I had a minimum number I needed. This is a problem because essentially this is my schedule as of now for Monday and Wednesday with school and the internship.
8:30 – 12:30 work
1:30 – 3:00 class
3:30 – 5:00 work
8:30 – 12:30 work
1:30 – 3:00 class
3:30 – 5:00 work
5:30 – 8:00 class
Friday is the same but I just don't have to go back for the 3:30–5:00 block. I couldn't put my hours on other days because literally I am in class from 9:35 to 7:30 all day with only an hour and a half gaps. I go to a very rigorous university and this doesn't even factor in time for group assignments, readings, and studying. This is also a lot of extra driving for me. I may have felt different if I was getting paid, but they are only giving me $1,000 for the ENTIRE semester. That's only a couple hundred dollars more than all the money it would cost me for gas to drive there and back multiple times a day (in a major city's traffic, think like Chicago level big). I made more than that at my on campus job where I worked less hours and had time to do my homework at my job. By the time I got home last night, I was incredibly tired and stressed because I still had a bunch of readings to do, and it's not even deep in the semester yet where I would have more work. My grandparents really want me to quit……..they said they would even try to give me money if they needed to……..I'm not sure what to do. I really don't like the situation, but the people are nice and I need something on my resume. Also, if I don't have this internship, I will be 1000% broke. I don't like taking money from my grandparents and having the little bit from my job on campus gave me a level of independence that I no longer can enjoy. I feel guilty now for going and making it seem like I was ready to be there for long term. Going in, I was, and my first day wasn't OVERLY busy….but I can see this schedule messing me up in the future. It is my last semester in school, and I have made all As for the past 4 semesters which is nearly unheard of at my school. I've been doing well and I feel like this might mess up my final GPA. I have other options, but they are far from guaranteed. They are nice people at this company, and it's not directly related to my future career plans but it's kinda sorta related…..I haven't signed a contract or anything.
Should I stay or should I leave? And if I should leave, how do I do that without seeming like an asshat? I really feel bad about this….I don't like going back on my word and they've already got me a parking pass and login and stuffs…..and I already started on some work…..

Via the Atlantic, by Emma Green: The Last Man at Nuremberg The life of 95-year-old Benjamin Ferencz, the only living prosecutor from the war-crime trials that followed the Holocaust
"Benjamin Ferencz was 27 when the Einsatzgruppen trial began in 1947. There were 22 defendants, all men, all members of the German SS. "One of the counsel has characterized this trial as the biggest murder trial in history," the military tribunal wrote. "In this case, the defendants are not … charged with sitting in an office hundreds and thousands of miles away from the slaughter.… These men were in the field actively superintending, controlling, directing, and taking an active part in the bloody harvest." Put simply, the Einsatzgruppenwere exterminators: Their squads traveled to towns throughout Eastern Europe, rounding up Jews and shooting them with mechanized efficiency. Some mass graves were filled with hundreds of bodies; others, thousands. Otto Ohlendorf, Paul Blobel, and almost two dozen others led these divisions of Hitler's army; after the war, they were indicted for crimes against humanity. Benjamin Ferencz was 27, and he was the chief prosecutor responsible for convicting 22 men on trial for murdering 1 million men, women, and children…"
