- the double standards because Irene is up thereㅋㅋㅋㅋ are there any idols who debut without receiving some makeover? also she was already famous for being pretty even when she was a commoner

- ㅇㅇ |2015.10.04 17:36
- that was the Irene after she debuted, come on... she's 24 years old, so all the make over she needed, she had it. I'd rather you put some kids like Kang Jiyoung

- ㅇㅇ |2015.10.04 17:51
- why are you guys comparing Yoona with Irene? you guys bring up her graduation photos and ask OP to take her out! but it just shows your inferiority complexㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ if you bash her like that, do you think that Yoona didn't get any makeover ever since she was a trainee? she debuted at such an young age so of course when her graduation came, her picture would look prettier. just you wait, Irene's beauty will never changeㅠㅠ

- I still remember watching a clip of Suzy when she debuted and went "omg"ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ this wasn't even during high school but during middle school..ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋshe really stood out ever since she was young

I sent a Pm to ya
didn't get it
Just found this thread. I'm a definite maybe. Had a great time at the last meet. Picked up an M&P 15-22 since then.
Edit: Just read through the thread. Too bad things went sour. Sounded like fun.
yeah, but Evilspringer is having one
I'd like to introduce myself as the person who was working with John on the original event.
I'm going to say my piece (as John all ready said his) and put this behind me.
John came to me with the idea for the shoot. I liked it and thought it would be a fun, inexpensive event for folks to participate in.
We spit balled ideas back and forth. Once we agreed to a format, I took the idea of the event to the club (of which I'm an Officer) for approval. It was approved.
John took the bull by the horns and started collecting door prizes (which obviously he does a good job at).
I slapped together a registration form and posted it on the club's site.
There really wasn't much more to be done on my end until closer to the event (6 months away). I never delegated John as "my little helper" and am offended at the implication.
John obviously feels that the club should comp or give him a reduced membership.
Our annual membership fee is a $25 initiation fee (first year member) and a $50 annual fee. Also, members are required to put in a min. of 10 work hours or pay $7.50 for any hours not worked. An incredibly cheap cost considering what the club has to offer.
To my knowledge, the only memberships ever comped have been to local law enforcement officers.
I can only guess whether John has been a member of a club or organization. If you have, you know that the members work their tails off for the betterment of the club/organization.
I'm the SHC's club's PR Officer. We have a VERY active club with a strong membership.
I handle the website, newsletter, advertise club events as well as try to get businesses to advertise on our site. I also volunteer to work other club (non shooting) events as well as participate in most of the shooting events, run a monthly shooting event and also have organized very successful fund raising shooting events. You could say I'm heavily vested in this club.
I'm also a Coordinator for OFCC. It's an all volunteer organization. We work behind the scenes helping to make gun rights better for law abiding Ohio gun owners.
I don't do these things for the recognition (although, a pat on the back is appreciated from time to time, right?). I do them because I'm passionate about the shooting community as a whole. If that makes me a jerk, then I'm a jerk.
I've said my piece and wish John the best of luck in his future organizational shooting endeavors.
Ill make sure i mail the (50) custom Salem Hunt Club logo chamber flags i got donated to club next week and you're welcome for the corporate sponsors i sent your way.
Im going to quote my good buddy and leave it at that
To be clear, there are members besides myself who give selflessly to this club. Men and women who volunteer skills like electrical, roofing, snow plowing, painting, cooking, fund raising, making toast at our breakfast's or whatever they can possibly do for NO other reason other than they want to help the club.
These same people pay full membership, their required work hours plus scores more.
Then, we have some folks who do ZERO work hours and happily break out the checkbook and pay off their work hours. To each his own.
In regards to John's previous event, I heard it went very well.
I don't understand the relevance of that in this conversation however.
If I had doubts about John's ability to help put together an event, I'd have declined my involvement and not put the club's reputation at risk.
It seems to me now (John, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) that he believed that he was going to do all the work.
I thought it was clear that, that wasn't the case.
In fact, upon looking at our emails, I don't understand what led him to think that.
I agree in theory.
John clearly was miffed when I told him that the club wasn't going to comp or give a break on membership costs. I did tell him that his time would certainly go towards his work hours. That obviously isn't what he wanted to hear.
That's fine. I'm not twisting anyone's arm to be where they don't want to be.
He backed out and I decided that as this event was his idea, I wasn't comfortable moving ahead with it.
We'll all move on and life will continue.
Jay, with the amount of hours I have in this so far, I wouldn't have to work at the club for 5 years! I don't get why you keep bringing up what other members do for the club, if I was a member, I'd volunteer to work too! that's not the point!! the club stood to get a couple hundred dollars or more because of my idea, it may have also got a couple more members because of my idea, and it still may get at least three companies that want to pay to advertise on the website because of me! I introduced people to the club that otherwise wouldn't even know about it. and for all of that you offer to take a couple work hours off? really? there wouldn't be a shoot if not for me spending up to 5 hours or more a day for the last month or more getting donations and posting the shoot on at least 5 different forums I belong to. and yes, I expected to do all the work and had no problem with it. you supplied the club, I was doing the rest.one of our first emails you suggested that some of the registration money should go to the club for letting us use it, I told you I was planning on giving ALL of it to the club! so whatever, you stick to your "other members this and that" reasoning and I'll stick to mine. I'll mail that stuff next week.
Este, I'll see you in May
I'm just trying to explain that the club simply doesn't give out memberships. It doesn't need to. We're not struggling in any way shape or form.
I wish you told me from the get go that your expectation was a membership deal. I would have clarified matter for you.
I'm sorry you feel slighted.
If you feel the club is a place you'd not refer people to, that's too bad. I'm very proud of it's reputation.
I'm sure the event would have been successful.
I'm sorry you have hurt feelings.
I'm letting this go now.
Feel free to have the last word.
my expectations were not to get a membership out of this! i was going to join, the club is nice and figured for everything im doing FOR THE CLUB maybe a friend could hook me up! like i or any of my friends would have done in the same situation, infact if you would have said "let me see what i can do" instead of "i cant do anything about that" and "ill take some work hours off" it would still be going on! but all you keep talking about is the club doesnt just give out memberships! i didnt just walk off the street and ask you for a free membership, everything i was doing for the shoot was helping/benefitting the club!
What does any of this have to do with "the club isnt struggling" "we dont need to give out memberships"? and i dont feel slighted or "miffed" its your "club" attitude i cant believe! again, none of what i was doing was for me, it was for the shooters (my friends) and the club! im sorry you cant see past the club rule book, and as my buddy Bug said " help a brother out" if our roles were reversed, you can bet your arse if you asked for a membership, i would have gotten you one even if i had to pay it myself! people who know me will vouch for that!
thanks for the last word!
I'm sorry to see that this fell apart(I can always use more plaques)
I'm going to side with John on this one. If a non-member did this amount of prep for the club I run I'd have no problem giving a discounted or free membership. As you stated "we're not struggling". That is even more reason to reward volunteers. If the club could give a free membership to someone that earned it and never notice the $75 loss, why wouldn't you try?
Thanks brotha
PS. that plaque ended up a target
From the money that John is making off the stuff that was donated for the event, John can buy a membership at any club he wants. Plate rack, holsters and ?????
Seems to me some stuff was sold on OFCC last year after his Glocktalk event at A&A. Maybe some stuff on here also. I'm not saying it's necessarily wrong for him to benefit, after all he is spending alot of time on securing the donations.
I think we will all survive to shoot another day.
Jeff, REALLY? you are in no way involved in any of this WHAT SO EVER! WOULD ALL OF YOU PEOPLE JUST GET OVER IT AND MOVE ON!? HOLY CRAP!
To all my GT friends, im sorry all of this OFCC crap is spilling over here! it's beyond my control. i guess will have to settle it at recess
Are you making money off this or not?
I can send you emails from sponsor(s) stating what their donations are for, the holsters i have for sale are only half of the donation, the other half WILL BE A DOOR PRIZE AT THIS EVENT AT THE NEW LOCATION!!! the emails i have from the sponsors state" i will send you 2 holsters as a donation, one for you to wear and the other you can choose how to use at the event" so before you start accusing anybody of anything, get a clue first!!
And why are you even butting in? this has nothing to do with you
Though its none of your business, i dropped off a box full of donations i received to evilspringer today for his shoot. like i said, get a clue first.
You're right. Take care brother.

|The effect of topography on ocean flow
|Hughes, Christopher William
|Awarding Body:
|University of Oxford
|Current Institution:
|University of Oxford
|Date of Award:
|Availability of Full Text:
The rôle which topography plays in constraining ocean flow is investigated in several ways, mostly aimed at application to the Southern Ocean where topography is known to be important. The physics of topographic Rossby waves is discussed in some depth and a description of ocean flow in terms of a sum of topographic normal modes is developed. It is shown that the apparent incompleteness of topographic modes can often be circumvented by including a function which absorbs the nett input of potential vorticity. Some subtle problems with this description are dealt with, and a calculation of topographic modes for the Southern Ocean is presented, which shows that the modes are very localised, making the use of them to describe basin-wide flows difficult. The effect of interactions between stratification and topography is investigated in terms of a quasi-two-dimensional model which deals only with the depth-integrated flow, and the assumptions which go into the model are examined in detail both analytically and by calculating terms of interest from a data set produced by the Fine Resolution Antarctic Model. It is shown that advection of density in the Southern Ocean can be described to a first approximation as being due to a barotropic current with no vertical velocity, the horizontal component of the baroclinic flow producing very little effect. The balance of terms reveals interesting features in the modelled flow in the Southern Ocean, showing the value of this type of analysis. Finally, insight developed in the course of the investigation allows a simple model to be constructed representing the feedback between density advection and forcing due to density gradients. This model is used to provide an explanation for the fact that the FRAM model spins up linearly, where most simple models would predict a component of quadratic behaviour in the spin-up.

Frasier: Well, I better be heading out. Niles and I are meeting for dinner, and then we have tickets to the theatrical event of the season.
Martin: Oh, really?
Frasier: Yes, Sir Trevor Aimsley in Tears of the Mariner.
Daphne: Look!
Martin: (laughing) Oh, my gosh! Is that you?
Daphne: Yes!
Frasier: Well, good heavens, it's kind of hard to tell. You've got your back turned to the camera, your skirt's blown up around your...Oh, well, it must've been rather blustery out.
Daphne: I was in the park yesterday, and this photographer snapped my picture for the 'It's Your Seattle' column - the one where they show some average person out and about, then use their name on the column. For instance, if they used a picture of Mr. Crane, the caption would read 'Martin Crane's Seattle.' Or if they took one of you it would say 'Frasier Crane's Se-'
Frasier: Yes, we get it.
Daphne: Well, don't crinkle it, I want to send it home to my family.
Martin: You sure about that?
Daphne: Oh, don't be such an old fogey. So I'm bending down and me knickers are showing a bit, but my family'll still be proud as peacocks when they see that: 'Daphne Moon's Seattle.'
Daphne: You just wanted to find out if I was gossiping about you to my mum. Well, fine! I was. A seventy-three year old woman in Manchester is about to find out that you dye the gray out of your temples. There! You happy?
Frasier: No, I am not happy, I am mortified! (he pauses) How did you know that? I keep my hair dye in the false bottom of my cufflink box.
Daphne: Yeah, well...I'll let it go this time.
Frasier: Just concentrate: What was the play about?
Martin: Well, let me see, uh, it started out with this old guy who was guttin' a fish. And then he gives this fish to his son, but his son rejects it.
Frasier: Good! Good, then what?
Martin: Uh...oh, yeah! Well, then it turns out he's got this fatal disease, and the next thing you know, he's in this big stadium. And he's telling everyone that even though he's dying, that today, he considers himself the luckiest...
Frasier: Dad! That is 'Pride of the Yankees'!
Martin: Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm sorry, I'm sorry about that. But I'm pretty sure that fish part was right.
Frasier: Never mind that, Niles. The Gornleys are not coming back. Let's go sneak into their seats and watch the second act.
Niles: Let's go!
(They rush to the entrance, but are stopped by the usher)
Usher: Your ticket stubs, please.
Frasier: Oh, I beg your pardon?
Usher: Well, I'm sorry, we've had some people try to sneak in after intermission.
Frasier: Well, you know, I think we, I left our coats in our seats and our stubs are in the coats.
Usher: Oh, don't worry about it. (They turn to head in, but are stopped again) We'll just have someone bring your coats to you. Where are your seats?
Frasier: I'll...have to check the seating chart.
Niles: I'm practicing. I haven't held a cigarette since I played Duke Mantee in our junior high production of The Petrified Forest.
Roz: Oh, a friend of mine couldn't use hers, so she gave them to me. I asked my cute new dentist, he's a big fan of Sir What's-his-face.
Frasier: You refer to the world's greatest living actor as...
Niles: Now, now, Frasier. Roz may not be familiar with Sir Trevor, but I'm sure she'll enjoy the play. I trust you got good seats?
Roz: (taking the tickets out to check) Ooh. I think so. Row C?
Niles: Row C. Excellent. (then) Look, a whole bunch of naked men.
(Roz turns around and Niles grabs the tickets in her hand but she
doesn't let go)
Roz: What are you doing?
Niles: Give me those, you philistine! You don't even know his name!
Roz: Are you crazy?!
(She kicks him in the shin, causing him to yelp "Ouch!" and let go of the tickets. Roz's date walks up)
Frasier: Yes. I know it's a calculated risk. It is a little uncertain.
Niles: You can't be serious. It's unthinkable.
Frasier: Niles, what other choice do we have?
Niles: But the indignity, it reeks of desperation.
Martin: Now, now, before you do anything desperate, at least go stand in the cancellation line. (exits to kitchen)
(Frasier and Niles look at each other dumbfounded)
Niles: What did he think we were talking about?
Frasier: Yes, you remember her, she's on the board of the theater. You've seen her: bad eye-job, dowager's hump you could cross the Sahara on. (into phone) Hello, Cleo, you lovely thing. Uh-huh. Oh, well, you're a dear for trying. Thanks. Oh, don't despair Niles, I'm getting another call. Hello? Yes, Dora! Yes, uh-huh. Too bad. Well, thank you. Yeah, oh, that is a wonderful idea, yes I will! Thank you, bye-bye. (He disconnects)
Niles: Well, someone better call. Because everyone who's anyone is seeing this play. And you know who you are if you're not anyone? You're NO ONE. And I've been someone much too long to start being no one now.
(Martin comes in from the bedrooms)
Martin: Oh, hey, I thought no one was here.

Stratis GPC performance cruising sails have
been developed to deliver the rugged
durability required of cruising sails that are
folded or furled, while maintaining many of the
performance benefits of racing sails.
GPC is the tough alternative to a performance film sail without the
performance decrease commonly experienced from a standard panel
construction, or from a laminated sail cloth produced by an external
sailcloth supplier.
Because of the variety of fibres that can be selected, Stratis GPC is
equally well suited to superyachts as it is smaller cruising yachts.
The use of a wide variety of different fibre combinations or even single
use fibres allows us to custom build each sail to a particular
customer's requirements.
The fibres that Doyle use in Stratis GPC laminates are typically
Polyester, Vectran, Technora and medium to low modulus carbon.
These fibres are used in conjunction with specific resins which are
selected for their long term durability and resistance to high humidity
and wet conditions
External taffetas can be specified on either or both sides of the
membranes depending on requirements for scuff-resistance.
GPC laminates can also incorporate added compression and primary
yarns to fully address the issues associated with roller furling sails.
Custom reef points built into the laminates also help improve
performance through a wide range of conditions.
Whether your boat is
a sailing dinghy or a
56 metre superyacht;
we can engineer the ideal sail to suit your needs.

PEN is the big brother of PET. It was invented very shortly after PET but only commercialised in the 1990's after Amoco started the first plant to produce the NDA needed to make it affordable in commercial quantities.

text: I just got my XM radio yesterday. It's a Delphi SKYFi and is hooked up to my Sony STR-DE575 via the RCA cables it came with. My only problem is the volume is low. I turned the line out level to MAX and that didn't help much. For reference, for DVDs or FM radio I keep the receiver at ~20 max. With XM I'm having to go up to ~30. This leads to another problem. Since it's being turned up so loud I'm getting a humming sound. Like when you have nothing on but turn the volume up. Has anyone else experienced these problems? If so, what are you doing? btw, XM Radio is great so far other than those minor quarrels

The General Services Administration scandal: What it means for Washington businesses
When General Services Administrator Martha Johnson fired Public Buildings Service Commissioner Bob Peck and Senior Counselor Stephen Leeds, then resigned from her own post April 2, the Washington-area contracting and real estate communities shuddered from shock and trepidation.
The moves came just before the agency's inspector general issued a report on an October 2010 Public Buildings Service conference in Las Vegas that cost taxpayers $823,000, and they left the business community asking "what now?" The Washington Business Journal tackles some of the biggest questions.
Did the punishment fit the crime?
When media reports surfaced about the GSA departures, some wondered whether this was political paranoia — until the IG report was released. The facts left few doubts that this was a case of blatant excess.
That said, it is unclear how much direct involvement Johnson, Peck or Leeds had in planning the Public Buildings Service 2010 Western Regions Conference, attended by about 300 people and including more than $136,000 in pre-conference scouting trips and $146,000 on catered food and drink. The controversy divided real estate and federal contracting circles on the three job losses.
"This is further evidence of how difficult and troubling this budgetary environment has become," said Kurt Stout, executive vice president of government services for real estate firm Colliers International. "It concerns me, because GSA was doing things right in terms of being a better tenant."
Was Peck fired or did he resign?
The White House confirmed that prior to resigning, Johnson fired both Leeds and Peck.
Was Peck personally involved in the conference?
The western divisions of the GSA's Public Buildings Service held the October 2010 event and obtained Peck's permission to plan it. The extent of Peck's involvement is unclear. But according to the IG report, he attended at least part of the conference and hosted a $1,960 party in his M Resort Spa Casino suite for senior GSA officials.
Will a permanent GSA chief be nominated before the presidential election?
Likely not, and final picks depend nearly entirely on who wins the White House. Should President Barack Obama remain in office, Johnson's acting replacement, Dan Tangherlini, would probably stay put — assuming the Senate approved the nomination.
If a Republican wins the White House, the nomination would depend at least in part on how Tangherlini managed the transition.
As one former GSA official put it, Tangherlini will need to "send a message quickly that GSA is going to continue to be a leader in helping agencies acquire goods and services at the best value possible."
Should he fail to do so — or should people fail to listen — Tangherlini might not survive a change in White House leadership.
What about a replacement for Peck?
A permanent replacement for Peck is more open to speculation. Some potential names tossed around include Deputy Commissioner David Foley, Public Buildings Service National Capital Region Commissioner Cathleen Kronopolus and GSA Deputy Administrator Susan Brita, who has been in that post since February 2010 and asked the inspector general to launch the investigation. But some federal insiders are quick to call attention to the fact that Tangherlini, not Brita, was named acting administrator, giving some indicator of her future role in the GSA.
How will this affect real estate leasing?
The federal government occupies more than 56 million square feet in the Washington area and will continue to do so regardless of who occupies the top spots at the GSA. But the agency was already under intense pressure from the White House and Congress to scale back its real estate costs, and successors to Peck and Johnson will likely face a steep learning curve as they try to get legislative approval for the GSA's lease prospectuses, which top $2.9 million in annual costs.
That might not be the case for smaller, less costly leases that do not require congressional oversight. They make up a majority of federal space needs and could hit fewer delays. Even then, FD Stonewater principal Joe Delogu said it isn't likely to be business as usual at the GSA for some time to come.
"A lot of what they do don't rise to a level of a Bob Peck or a Martha Johnson," Delogu said. "But when the key spots in the agency aren't filled, the key decisions either take longer or don't get made."
How will this affect federal contracts?
Generally speaking, companies that sell goods and services to federal agencies can expect business as usual, as the thousands of contract vehicles maintained by GSA remained intact. Will new vehicles be created or put on hold? That depends less on any shake-up at the top and more on the budget wrangling on Capital Hill. Federal contracting in general is expected to slow.
Though, any scandal brings with it some backlash, and that in turn will bring more oversight courtesy of watchdog groups like the Government Accountability Office, inspectors general and congressional committees. This whole mess involved excessive spending — much of which was attached to supplier agreements — so contractors should expect the spotlight to shine on them as well.
There's a lesson to be learned, said Ray Bjorklund, senior vice president and chief knowledge officer at Herndon- based Deltek Inc. "I will say what I've said many times: Contractors also have a responsibility to do the right thing and advise their customers on potential consequences of taking contract actions that may be improper."
Who is Dan Tangherlini?
Tangherlini is no stranger to high-profile government work. He comes to the GSA from the Treasury Department, where he was tapped by the Obama administration to serve as chief financial officer, chief performance officer and assistant secretary for management. He had served in that capacity since July 2009, a month before Peck was hired to his post at the GSA.
Tangherlini caught the Obama administration's attention while serving as D.C. administrator under former Mayor Adrian Fenty. He frequently met with Obama Cabinet heads then through his oversight of millions of dollars in federal stimulus funds awarded to the District.
He had held numerous posts in D.C. government previously, including transportation director, interim general manager of the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority and chief financial officer of the Metropolitan Police Department.
What has history taught us about these kinds of government shake-ups?
This is hardly the first time an agency has been caught with its pants down, nor is it even the first GSA administrator resignation amid a probe. On April 29, 2008, then-GSA Administrator Lurita Doan resigned after allegations surfaced that she violated the Hatch Act by using the agency to help Republican lawmakers win re-election.
As that incident demonstrated, business will go on. Most anyone in government will tell you that the day-to-day operations are more directly managed by what Bjorklund called the "hard-working rank-and-file career employees," not the appointed officials at the helm. Perhaps new initiatives will slow, but that was likely to happen during an election year regardless.
This may lead to fresh leadership at GSA, as evidenced by the Tangherlini pick for now, but whether that decides Peck's and Leeds' replacements remains to be seen.

it's an internet thing!
it's an internet thing!
14:10 13 August 2012
Amy Winehouse's ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil is currently fighting for his life after a drink and drug binge. Winehouse's dad Mitch has come forward to urge Amy's fans to pray for the star's former husband.
Blake, 30, was found choking by partner Sarah Aspin last Friday. He was rushed to a hospital in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire and was found to have suffered from multiple organ failure.
As news of the incident broke out, Mitch Winehouse said that it was 'terrible news'. He reminded Amy's fans that his daughter 'loved' Blake and that they should 'pray for his recovery'.
Blake, a recovering drug addict, had reportedly gone drinking with a friend the day prior to the incident. Ms. Aspin, mother of Blake's 15-month-old son, believes her partner might have taken an illicit substance and that she is now trying to prepare herself 'that he may never wake up'. He is now on life support after doctors put him in a come to help his body recover.
Miss Aspin said: "They let me in to hold his hand after 45 minutes. I found out later that they did that because they thought he was going to die."
Aside from his history with heroin, Fielder-Civil has also gotten in trouble with the law. In 2008, he was jailed for assault, and last year he was also jailed for burglary and imitation firearm possession.

Athens-Clarke Commissioner States McCarter surprised some people when he alluded last month to a possible mayoral run, but actually running might never have been in the cards.

McCarter is expected to ann-ounce whether he will run for mayor when he comes back from vacation next week, but the chances of him running might have dropped when fellow Commissioner Tom Chasteen announced his campaign for the office.
McCarter urged Chasteen to run on several occasions, telling him to announce early for next November's election, according to several sources. Chasteen had pretty much made up his mind earlier in the year, but told McCarter he wasn't yet ready to announce.
McCarter, in his fifth year as commissioner, said June 8 that he would resign at the end of 2006 and was considering "seeking a higher office in this government." At the time, some political insiders thought McCarter was leaning toward running and wanted to preempt Chasteen, but others saw the announcement as a way to publicly urge Chasteen into the race.
If the second strategy was McCarter's intention, it worked. Chasteen, whose term expires next year, confirmed June 28 that he would run for mayor.
The question now is, where does that leave McCarter? They have much in common - both live in southeastern Clarke County, attend the same church and share many political stances. But Chasteen has more experience in politics (three terms on the commission and eight years on the appointed planning commission), and as a "super district" commissioner representing half the county, a broader base of support. If McCarter truly intended to run, Chasteen might have cut the legs out from under him.
Latin for 'bar hopping': Athens-Clarke Commissioner Carl Jordan was quoted last week as saying a police study on the effectiveness of a downtown cruising ban wasn't relevant because it compared traffic on a cold weekend with a warm one.
"Warm weather arouses hormonal juices and animal spirits," Jordan was quoted as saying.
But what the erudite commissioner actually said, according to Jordan, was "animus," not "animal."
Jordan said he was referring to a belligerent attitude. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines animus, in part, as "a usually prejudiced and often spiteful or malevolent ill will."
Either word probably works to describe Clayton Street at 2 a.m. on a Saturday.

Lifeline benefit Aug. 23
Vigo County Lifeline will host their annual fundraising event, "Laughlines for Lifeline," featuring comedian Richard Bowden and the Electric Amish on Aug. 23 at 7:30 p.m. at Tilson Auditorium on the campus of Indiana State University.
The event is presented by ISU Center for Science Education.
Bowden hit Nashville in the fall of 1982 and met a songwriter named Sandy Pinkard. He had several hits and wanted to write with Bowden. It didn't work out. They started having too much fun making up stupid lyrics to their own songs, as well as others, and without really trying, they found themselves with a comedy act. It worked out. For lack of a better name, they called themselves "Pinkard and Bowden."
All proceeds will benefit Vigo County Lifeline. The not-for-profit organization is a 24 hour/7 day a week information referral/crisis hotline. Vigo County Lifeline also operates a food pantry network, child abuse hotline and a safe school hotline for Vigo, Clay and Vermillion counties.

We have steel mills and steel workers here who are more than up to the challenge. I want to see Granite City Works at full production and full staffing cranking out steel for these projects, not continually undercut by cheap foreign steel dumped into the U.S. market.
We've got a lot of work to do across this country. And it should start by putting people to work here in our own backyard.
Sign my petition to call on Congress and the president-elect to commit to using American-made steel if a national building plan becomes law.

Along with the potential for more and varied criminal activity including cyber-extortion, spam today is increasingly made up of Word documents and images. A trend Sophos also identified on Monday.
This is bogging down the Internet as a whole and making corporate communication via email more and more expensive to manage and maintain.
Hackers now use techniques such as re-arranging as many as 25 tiny images into a message in an HTML email or using animated GIF attachments to bypass optical character recognition technology in an effort to bypass email security systems. Infected computers are now also re-trying temporarily blocked email connections just like real mail servers do.

1. During sleep your brain rests.
False: While your body rests, your brain doesn't.
2. You can not learn to function normally with one or two fewer hours of sleep a night than you need.
True: Sleep need is biological. While children need more sleep than adults, how much sleep any individual needs is genetically determined.
3. Boredom makes you feel sleepy, even if you have had enough sleep.
False: Boredom only unmasks sleepiness, but it doesn't cause it.
4. Resting in bed with your eyes closed cannot satisfy your body's need for sleep.
True: Sleep is as necessary to health as food and water, and rest is no substitute for sleep.
5. Snoring is not harmful, as long as it doesn't disturb others or wake you up.
False: Snoring may be a signal for sleep apnea (which can be fatal if untreated).
6. Everyone dreams at night.
True: Every person dreams every night – it's just that some of us can't remember much of our dreams.
7. The older you get, the fewer hours of sleep you need.
False: Although we tend to sleep less, our need for sleep doesn't decrease as we age.
8. Most people don't know when they are sleepy.
True: We are not very good judges of our biological need for sleep.
9. Raising the volume of your radio will help you stay awake while driving.
False: The only short-term solutions are to pull over and take a nap or to have a caffeinated drink.
10. Sleep disorders are mainly due to worry or psychological problems.
False: Sleep apnea is caused by relaxed muscles and narcolepsy appears to be genetic.
11. The human body never adjusts to night shift work.
True: No matter how long you work a night shift, sleeping during the day remains a challenge because of our circadian rhythms that operate on the light/dark schedule.
12. Most sleep disorders go away, even without treatment.
False: On average, sleep disorders do not disappear without treatment.

Dallas, Texas (PressExposure) May 26, 2012 -- Dallas plastic surgeon Mark A. Deuber is proud to have launched a newly designed website. The website includes an updated design that is intended to help prospective patients easily navigate the website and find the information that they are seeking. In addition to the redesign, we have included more information about the services that we offer, as well as new patient before and after photos. Some of the features of our new website include:
New Procedural Information
Dr. Deuber added a wealth of additional information to our website; patients can visit our About, Body, Breast, or Face sections to read about Dr. Deuber's education and experience and the services that we offer.
24-hour breast augmentation: Few plastic surgeons offer the 24-hour breast augmentation procedure. During treatment, Dr. Deuber uses specialized techniques during the creation of the breast implant pocket; this reduces trauma to surrounding tissue. After surgery, patients stick to over-the-counter pain medications and are encouraged to engage in some motion exercises a few hours after surgery to avoid stiffness. By the evening on the day of surgery, patients should feel well enough to go out to dinner or see a movie if they feel so inclined. The next day, patients may return to work and other obligations. However, strenuous activity should be avoided for a few weeks after surgery.
Rhinoplasty: The new version of our website includes detailed information about the rhinoplasty procedure as it performed by Dr. Deuber. Potential rhinoplasty patients can find information about the consultation process, surgical techniques, recovery, side effects, and risks of the procedure.
Injectables: Dr. Deuber offers facial injectable treatments for patients looking for a minimally invasive way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or those that want to combine plastic surgery and injections in their treatment plan. We offer Botox Cosmetic, Radiesse, and Juvederm injections at our Dallas practice; for our patients' convenience, this information is now included on our website.
New Before and After Photos
We have added additional photos to our gallery. You can find before and after photos of patients that have undergone:

Corte di Liliana is situated in the most panoramic zone of Montegabbione. It consists of three separate residences.
The small Montegabbione town, which is usually omitted from the most obvious tourist itineraries, is a simple village which owns its identity, as do the small towns of the surrounding area, to the Medieval Period.

Java Spring Framework
Spring AOP framework is implemented in pure Java. It is a proxy based AOP framework. This framework currently supports only method execution join points. It does not support field level interception. Field interception is possible in AspectJ which is another AOP api available. Spring AOP framework provides a close integration between AOP implementation and Spring IoC to help solve common problems in enterprise applications and it does not give you complete AOP capabilities.

On June 29, WPPA Executive Director Jim Palmer appeared on "Lunch Pail Logic," a statewide syndicated radio program dedicated to the working families of Wisconsin, and hosted by John "Sly" Sylvester. Palmer's interview followed a Wisconsin State Journal front page story about the current movement amongst the Madison Metro Transit employees to dump their current union, Teamsters Local 695, to join the civilian division of the WPPA.
Working with the most prominent organizations in Wisconsin, Lunch Pail Logic was planned and arranged to promote the concerns of Wisconsin's middle class. The intent is to produce a cutting edge, entertaining platform in which the concerns of working families will be heard. The program features leaders from labor, government and industry.

Who would ever thought when the flimsy, $70 shoe that was the Nike Roshe Run first arrived on store shelves that it would eventually expand to this level? It appears that the sneaker is morphing into a basketball design, as evidenced by this collection of catalog renderings. As you can see there's quite a bit more technology included this time around-the shoe extends up the ankle and looks to feature Dynamic Flywire and Nike Zoom treatment along the bottom.

The season's first shot for accumulating frozen precipitation is appearing in long-range model simulations. As arctic air seeps into the region this coming weekend, a wave of low pressure will approach from the southwest. This combination means we have a chance of snow, ice, and/or rain next Sunday into Monday.
I'll begin with the usual qualifier that forecasts 6-7 days out carry a lot of uncertainty and can change substantially. So, at this juncture, it's best to look at the big picture, rather than specifics.
Here's what we know:
* Cold air, courtesy of an arctic front, should reach the region during the day Saturday.
* A storm system – with a large area of precipitation – is likely to approach the region from the southwest Sunday.
* A large, strong area of high pressure – feeding cold air south – will exist to the north of the region – a necessary ingredient for frozen precipitation in our region most of the time.
* Most models simulate a mixed bag of precipitation over the region Sunday into Monday.
* In these cold air "damming" situations, where cold air drains south at low levels and warm air overrides it at high altitudes, cold air often hangs around near the surface longer than forecast.
* Temperatures in the days prior to the storm will be relatively mild, so the ground will not be all that cold.
Here's what we don't know:
* How heavy the precipitation will be
* The exact track the storm will take and the make-up of the precipitation. The farther to our west the storm passes, the less frozen precipitation we will see, as southerly winds ahead of the storm would change any frozen precipitation to rain. If the storm tracks close to us, a wintry mess is likely, with snow and/or ice accumulation. (If the storm passes to our south and then east, substantial snow would be possible – but models don't really show this scenario.)
Here's our initial thinking, overall:
The overall set up seems conducive for a period of mixed precipitation – especially for the District and points north and west, which probably changes to rain. We cannot rule out a period of snow, but don't see this as a snowstorm.
"Even though it's a type of storm that can produce winter weather, it's not the kind that should produce a big snow," says Capital Weather Gang winter weather expert Wes Junker, who will analyze this storm in a post tomorrow.
There is an outside risk that this turns into an ice storm for some part of the region (colder areas to the north and west of the District), but that would require several different ingredients to come together, which are too uncertain to forecast at this time range.

Vikings defensive coordinator was arrested, initially charged with DWI in May
Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator George Edwards was arrested on a charge of suspicion of drunken driving in May and pleaded guilty to a charge of careless driving, according to court documents obtained by the Pioneer Press.
Edwards pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charge in August, paid a $1,000 fine and was placed on one year of probation, according to the report. The Vikings said Edwards told the organization of the arrest in May and that "he was significantly disciplined by the Vikings," the team told Pioneer Press in a statement.
Edwards is in his third season with the Vikings and is the mastermind of a unit that is first in the NFL in scoring defense and second in total defense for 5-0 Minnesota. According to the police report, Edwards' blood-alcohol level was .03 over the legal limit of .08.
"George Edwards immediately notified the team of this situation when it occurred," the Vikings statement read. "He was significantly disciplined by the Vikings. George has fulfilled both his legal obligations as well as the additional team-imposed discipline."

Frieri had 37 saves with the Angels in 2013, but hasn't pitched in the majors in two years.
He's coming off an appearance with Colombia in the WBC.
"This is a guy that saved a lot of games," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said Wednesday.
"He pitched well in the WBC. Some of our people saw him, and he's going to get an opportunity here."

This issue of Pathology/Lab Coding Alert includes an insert that is a description of the seven compliance-program guidelines suggested by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG). The policies and procedures that are part of a good compliance program have a direct impact on coding and billing. For example, a well- designed requisition form will help the physician identify exactly which test he or she means to order, which in turn tells the coder which code to bill.
Requisition Forms
With the guidance of individuals familiar with coding requirements, requisition forms should be designed to capture the correct information to facilitate appropriate ordering of tests, states Thomas Kent, CMM, president of Kent Medical Management, a coding and practice management firm located outside of Washington, D.C. For example, when a physician orders a Pap smear, the form should prompt him or her to designate whether it is a diagnostic test ( 88142-88154 and 88164-88167) or a screening test (P3000, G0123, G0143-G0145, G0147 G0148,) and remind him or her of the frequency constraints for screening Pap smears. The requisition also should require the physician to submit diagnosis information as documentation of medical necessity, he says.
Advance Beneficiary Notices (ABNs)
Give ABNs to patients only when there is a genuine doubt that the test the physician ordered will be covered by Medicare, advises Kent. Thats why it is important for individuals with knowledge of coding and reimbursement to be involved in developing the procedure that identifies when ABNs should be given.
Proceeding with the previous example, if a physician ordered a screening Pap smear using a diagnosis that indicates low risk (V76.2, special screening for malignant neoplasm; cervix) but the patient indicates that she has had a Pap smear within the past three years, you should ask her to sign an ABN.
Assigning Procedure Codes (HCPCS and CPT)
A big issue in compliance is that coders must ensure that the billing code accurately describes the service that was ordered and provided, says Kent. They must avoid upcoding to maximize reimbursement because upcoding can easily lead to an audit. For example, examination of an epidermoid inclusion (706.2) would be coded 88304 (level III- surgical pathology , gross and microscopic examination; skin - cyst/tag/debridement). Coding 88305 (level IV- surgical pathology, gross and microscopic examination; skin, other than cyst/tag/debridement/plastic repair), which has a higher reimbursement but does not accurately describe the specimen, would be considered upcoding.
Kent continues, Coders also must ensure that they avoid unbundling services. For example, if a patient undergoes surgery for a [...]
