Scanning for Explosives in Body Cavities
I wrote about some body scanning technology (backscatter and millimeter wave) that is being implemented in airports around the world a little while ago, and I just read about some new technology that is being touted as the new frontier in the area of detecting explosives…
…in the body cavities.
Oh yeah. Â I cannot wait until Jon Stewart reports on this – "now there's a scanning technology that can detect the explosive power of Semtex in your anal cavity and differentiate it from the explosive power of Taco Bell in your anal cavity." Â Le sigh. Â Now we have to worry about would-be terrorists hiding explosives in their anal cavities?! Â Wasn't it bad enough that we had to be concerned about the Underpants Bomber trying to light his junk on fire to blow up a plane?
Believe it or not, there has been one reported attempt of a d-bag terrorist trying to kill somebody by hiding explosives in that place – a Saudi prince – who was attacked by some idiot called Abdullah Hassan Al Aseeri. Â Aseeri stuffed an IED in the rear and went after the Saudi prince. Â The prince survived, but as you can imagine, Aseeri was blown into little chunks.
Well, regardless of the situation, there's this new tech out now called DEXI – diffraction-enhanced X-ray imaging.  Instead of just analyzing the x-rays that pass through the body or that are reflected off of the body, this new DEXI technology analyzes the x-rays that get scattered by soft tissue or other low-density material.  This technology comes to the market from a company in Crown Point, Indiana called Nesch.
From an article at Danger Room:
"Our patented technology can detect substances such as explosive materials, narcotics, and low-density plastics hidden inside or outside of the human body,†company CEO Ivan Nesch claims. DEXI allows explosives to create contrast, he adds, so it would be able to detect both the underpants bomber and the shoe bomber before they boarded.
The image above shows how a conventional radiograph does not detect two packets of "illegal materials†concealed in soft tissue, while they are plainly visible in when DEXI technology is used.
The process of taking the images, analyzing them, and then recognizing substances of interest — such as explosives — can be automated. Alerts issued can be computer-generated. Security staff would simply have to get passengers in and out of the imaging unit.
"The initial expected throughput is approximately one to two passengers a minute,†according to Nesch. "Once installed and tested in real applications, the throughput will be increased.â€
One or two people per minute? Holy moly. As if we didn't have long enough to stand in line through security now.
Why exactly does this technology work so well? Â Again, Ivan Nesch – from an article at Purdue University:
"X-ray absorption is the basis of conventional radiography, but carbon, nitrogen and oxygen do not absorb X-rays well. Explosives and narcotics are typically made of these elements. Conventional radiography detects these objects poorly due to its exclusive reliance on absorption," said Ivan Nesch, CEO. "DEXI is different because it uses X-ray refraction and scattering to construct images, along with absorption. It can detect explosives and narcotics because they noticeably refract and scatter X-rays."
DEXI's claim to safety fame is their corporate slogan: Â "Less radiation, more information." Â Nesch claims that passengers scanned by NEXI technology are exposed to 50 times less radiation than those scanned by a conventional radiograph. Â Well, at least there's something. Â I guess I'd rather have TSA looking in my behind than be dead.
An image scanned with a conventional radiograph vs. a DEXI scan:
On a lighter note, this technology makes me want to have a nice large meal of Taco Bell, KFC, and Burger King ten hours before heading to the airport so I can give the pleasant and friendly TSA employees something interesting to look at while they get to check out all kinds of my personal space. Â Make sure to eat some corn.

President Obama plans to give a major speech today (Friday, Jan. 17) on government surveillance and privacy. What he says could go a long way to addressing Americans' deep concerns about government intrusion into our private lives. An announcement of genuine reforms could also begin to restore global confidence in the security of data stored with U.S.-based companies. On the other hand, a tepid mix of half-steps could reinforce the negative image of our government at home and abroad.
In the speech, the president will undoubtedly address the National Security Agency programs that were revealed last summer by Edward Snowden. However, while many Americans are distressed by the practices of the NSA, the fact is that domestically, ordinary law enforcement agencies are collecting more and more digital information and they are doing so under outdated rules that have failed to keep pace with technology's rapid evolution.
Today, with free, unlimited storage, nearly ubiquitous broadband, and social media, ordinary Americans store all manner of private documents online. And U.S.-based companies have led the world in innovative cloud computing services.
The government can't tap our phones, open our mail or search our homes without persuading a judge to issue a warrant based on probable cause to believe that a crime is being committed. But ECPA says that the government can subpoena pretty much anything we store online – business plans, financial records, calendars, diaries, photographs – without a warrant and without good reason to believe a crime is being committed. That's an intolerable invasion of privacy in a country founded on ideals of personal liberty.
It also threatens the growth of industries and technological innovations that are driving the American economy and job creation. Businesses, especially in the huge overseas markets, are reluctant to use American services that they believe would expose them and their customers to unwarranted US government scrutiny. American companies essentially invented cloud computing, but customers here and abroad will turn increasingly to service providers overseas if they are not assured that American companies can protect their privacy.
Unless it is brought up-to-date for the realities of life in the 21st century, ECPA will continue threaten the ideals and the economic interests of the American people. It is time to reform ECPA and make emphatically clear that our constitutional rights are guaranteed in the digital age.
Bipartisan ECPA reform legislation is pending in both houses of Congress. In the Senate, Sens. Patrick LeahyPatrick Joseph LeahyLawmakers, celebs honor Tony Bennett with Library of Congress Gershwin Prize Dem senator jokes: 'Moment of weakness' led me to share photo comparing Trump, Obama Leahy presses Trump court nominee over LGBTQ tweets MORE (D-Vt.) and Mike LeeMichael (Mike) Shumway LeeProminent conservative passes on Utah Senate bid Johnson says he will not support tax-reform bill Moore endorsements disappear from campaign website MORE (R-Utah) joined forces to introduce the Electronic Communications Privacy Act Amendments Act of 2013, which passed the Senate Judiciary Committee last spring. Similar legislation has been introduced in the House. Moreover, the legislation is supported by a broadest imaginable coalition of liberals and conservatives, tech giants and start-ups, former prosecutors and civil libertarians. The bills have one simple premise: before accessing private or proprietary information stored online, government agents must obtain a search warrant.
The Attorney General of the United States and the director of the FBI have both testified that their investigators should get a warrant for private content. But the Securities and Exchange Commission is blocking the bill, seeking new power to read email and seize other private documents without a warrant. These regulatory agencies want a carve-out, allowing them to issue subpoenas, without a judge's approval, to force service providers to disclose what they hold for their customers.
The issue is now before Congress and the president. President Obama should not support expanding the powers of regulatory agencies. In the face of growing public concern about government overreaching, one way for him to show that he is serious about protecting Americans' online privacy rights is by urging Congress to pass a clean ECPA bill, without a civil agency carve-out.
Nojeim is the senior counsel at the Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) and McAuliffe is the federal affairs manager at Americans for Tax Reform. They are both members of the Digital 4th coalition.

Just as alchemists sought to transform lead into gold, we all have the natural ability to transform moments of confusion and emotional pain into insightful clarity.Lovingly, clearly, Tara Bennett-Goleman shows how most of what troubles us falls into 10 basic emotional patterns or schemas, including perfectionism, vulnerability, mistrust, and the fear of abandonment. Through schema therapy, she teaches us how to break free from such patterns and replace them with empathy for ourselves and others, and gives us the freedom to be more creative and alive.Emotional Alchemy explores the latest research in cognitive therapy and neuroscience, including the "magic quarter-second": the moment in which it is possible for a thought to be "caught" before it turns into an emotional reaction; the moment in which we can reject a self-defeating emotional impulse. The program then powerfully combines this science with ancient Buddhist wisdom that guides us to end our self-destructive habits. These teachings include the meditative awareness of mindfulness: an awareness that lets us see things as they truly are without distortion or judgment, enabling us to change not only our lives, but the very structure of our brains.Wise and pragmatic, gentle and inspiring, this is a liberating journey for those who wish to free themselves from suffering or help others on the way.More
"May this very important and enticing book find its way into the hearts of readers near and far so that it can perform its mysterious and healing alchemy for the benefit of all." (Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are)

Abridged version was excellent.
- Nxp
Powerfully enlightening
Terrific perspective on the effectiveness of using mindfulness meditation when dealing with schemas as they relate to thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. The book addresses individuals using the methods on their own to improve themselves, or in counseling by combining the techniques with psychotherapy, or use within relationships with a partner or friend. It also offers it as a way to understand the thinking, emotions and behaviors of others through understanding their schemas. The voice of the narrator was pleasant to listen to, and I enjoyed the book from beginning to end.

Demonstrations over price hikes continue after police clear key artery in capital that protesters had blocked for weeks.
Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in a central square in the Armenian capital to continue protests over energy price hikes after police cleared a key artery they had blocked for weeks.
Dozens of protesters were detained by the Riot police. The AFP news agency reports that the police dismantled a barricade of dumpsters the protesters had built across an avenue close to the presidential palace in Yerevan.
A senior police official, Valery Osipyan urged the protesters to disperse peacefully. When they refused to obey the order, riot police moved in, detaining 46 people to cries of "Shame" from the protesters.
According to an interior ministry spokesman, the demonstrators were later released.
About 1,500 protesters gathered at Yerevan's central Liberty Square, where a small group of demonstrators had already been maintaining a vigil, vowing to keep up pressure on the government until their demands are met.
"You are free to gather here. But we warn that we will not allow marches on Yerevan streets," Osipyan told the crowd.
Protesters in the impoverished former Soviet state have been demonstrating since June 19 to demand a 16-percent hike in electricity tariffs be scrapped.
President Serzh Sarkisian last month, in an attempt to appease the protesters, announced that the government would temporarily "bear the burden" of the higher prices.
Sarkisian also said the increase, which had been scheduled to take effect on August 1, would be postponed while the government carried out an audit to assess whether it was really necessary.
The protesters have however noted they would continue with their campaign.
"The police actions were illegal. We will not give up, our demands remain in force," one of the protesters, David Sanasaryan, told AFP.

Narrow corridors lead you down to the back of the studios where individual studios look out over West North Street while the main corridor branches into old teaching rooms which now house 2 to 3 artists each. Every room seemed to hold more wonders than the next as the resident artists showed completed work and some of their work in progress, some were just set up as the artists use them day to day, museum like while others were on hand and invited you to participate whether it be creating a design and making a badge or having a shot on a knitting machine. The day was broken up by musical performance by Fit Like Records with CS Buchan and The Great Bear both playing lovely sets during the day followed by myself and DJ Money aka Callum Minelas playing some records in the evening.
Young and old rubbed shoulders in the corridors as people took the time to explore this once famous landmark, which has sat empty for a number of years until studio founder Jim took ownership and its quite a place they've created. I've previously covered some of the goings on in year 1 at The Anatomy Rooms here and events like the Doors Open Day showed that there's a real interest in these kind of spaces and I'm especially excited by the idea of more social evenings where studio residents and friends from the wider arts community can come down and have a beer and listen to some records, get some VJ's or student films on, start building up a social side to the studios that can help raise their profile but also help bring together people from the Aberdeen art scene. The new gallery space will also play a big part in this with the first show by Lauren Milton highlighting just what can be done with even the smallest of spaces. I think for too long people have operated in solitude with in their own bubbles and I hope this could be a new space where established artists, students and people interested in art can meet, show work, discuss ideas and work towards more shared experiences.
As ever things are changing all the time and I'm sure since I filmed this video some artists have left and new artists will be coming in but I'm glad I caught the start of it and can't wait to see where it can go. 5 hour all vinyl DJ sets here I come!

Telecommuting offers a number of interesting possibilities to the worker. If you have the opportunity to telecommute, then congratulations. However, you may not want to take up the opportunity. Whether or not telecommuting works for you will depend on the kind of person you are. To help with making the decision easier for your business or yourself, here are some of the leading pros and cons for telecommuters.
List of Pros of Telecommuting
1. Save Time Not Commuting
One of the best reasons to work from home is that you do not have to spend time and money commuting to work. Taking upwards of an hour, the United States is known for having some of the longest commute times in the world. By cutting out the 2+ hours spent preparing and traveling, you have even more time to focus on the work that really matters.
2. Work In A Comfortable Environment
Some people find the office an uncomfortable place to work. Whether it is the lighting, the noise, or a number of other potential factors, they find working at home to be significantly better for the productivity.
3. Work During Your Best Time
When working at home, you do not necessarily need to be at it from 9 to 5. Instead, as long as you get the hours and productivity in, you can work at any period that is beneficial to you. This can be midnight or 6am depending on who you are, and dramatically increase your productivity at the tasks at hand.
List of Cons of Telecommuting
1. Trouble Becoming Motivated
Some people who telecommute have reported having difficulty becoming motivated. While they did very well when surrounded by other people and the pressure that comes from the office, working at home removed their motivation making it more of a challenge.
2. A Lack of Social Interaction
Social interaction is crucial for many jobs, and is one of the leading reasons why there are so few telecommuters out there. Whether it is for work or personal reasons, telecommuting allows people to socialize, that has been proven to increase performance and general happiness. Telecommuters don't have that.
3. House Sick
A big problem that many telecommuters have is that they become house sick. Spending both working hours and non-working hours at home leads to a real need to get out. Whether this means working at a coffee shop or spending more time outside the home, it can dramatically change how a person goes about their day.

Twins in separate classes? If so, when?(23 Posts)
I have DT girls in reception at the moment. Both getting on well and really enjoying school. I think DT2 is more settled in her friendships. DT1 is friendly with everyone but has no particular friends.
Now they are settled into school I was wondering whether they might benefit from being in separate classes, both in terms of making their own friendship groups and general independence.
Just wondering if people made the decision to have twins (or other multiples) in separate classes and, if so, when you decided to separate them? And how it worked out?
Or, if you decided to keep them together throughout primary, how that's working out and what advantages/disadvantages it has?
Was thinking maybe Year 2 would be a good time to separate but not sure if they keep the same classes throughout the school (it's infants only) or if they mix them up. YR teacher told me they haven't made the decision yet for Y1. Y3 will be transfer to much bigger junior school so will be quite a disruptive time anyway for them.
I think year 3 and junior school would be best idea.
Our school mostly has twins in separate classes from first starting. They don't mix the classes up every year - only if there are issues with a class. So if you made the decision at our school to separate, then one of the children would be going into an already established class, always assuming that there is space because it wouldn't be fair to just move one child from that class to make space.
Going yo juniors, all dcs will be starting in new classes I assume?
I have twins in Y3 and they were together in reception, then separated in Year 1 (school recommended it). It turned out to be a great idea - one is less socially confident and it gave him the opportunity to gain confidence with other classmates without his brother there. They also got less sick of each other as they were apart for much of the school day. I would have kept them in separate classes if I could but unfortunately we moved and they are now at a small school with 1 form intake. I'm not sure there's an optimal time though - think it really depends on each individual set of twins. If you feel one may benefit from being in a separate class in order to make firmer friendships, now might be the time to do it.
Mine went to a idyllic rural primary with only four classes spread over the seven years so being split up wasn't an option until secondary. They asked to stay together in year 7, which we agreed to, and have nevertheless still made loads of other friends, some shared, some not.
But it really does depend on what your own two are like.
Most of the schools round here only have one class per year group so splitting not an option. My twin boys would probably benefit from being in different classes in year 3 as they are v competitive with each other.
Twins I know - 1 (B/G) pair in Y2, have been in different classes since YR mainly because parents wanted to give boy a chance to emerge from the shadow of his (bigger and more advanced in pretty much everything) sister. I think other factors will override that in Y3 though so suspect that they will be in the same class - but they do now have very well established, separate but overlapping friendship groups. There is of course no way of telling whether that would have happened if they had been in the same class.
2nd pair - Y6, each other's best friends (although they are both extremely popular and have no shortage of other friends) and in the same class because the classes are streamed and they are of very similar ability, but they would want it that way anyway. At the moment they have everything in common so it works fine - I guess less well if their interests diverge, but they are old enough to deal with it now.
Parents choose at our school. Most seem to chose individual classes in y1 or 2 but we have had one pair stay together until y6.
t my school, parents of multiples (or indeed any siblings who will be any same year) get to choose. However, they choose before EYFS and they then stay in same classes throughout infants.
We don't mix classes around and it is rare for us to move children between classes. Infact don't think it has happened in all time I have worked there. I think the juniors sometimes mix them before starting Y4, leaving them the same in Y3.
It is very mixed at our school - we seem to have a lot of twins (2 or 3 sets in each year group at least)! We have 2 sets in Y2 at the moment: 1 set together, other set in different classes.
There are several sets of twins in my children's year - all in separate classes from day one.
It's been great for my two in terms of developing separate friendships. I also feel it really helps that the teachers aren't comparing them come parents night. They are very definitely just talking to us about 1 child.
My two love being twins but enjoy not always being 'Daffodils and Truffles all the time.
I taught a year group which had 3 sets of twins, all boys. 2 sets were together, one set in each of the 2 classes, the 3rd set were split because the parents requested it. The 2 boys were very boisterous together and also wound each other up a lot so it was felt they would be better with their own space during the school day. They were split from year 1 and it worked really well.
Tbh one of the other sets probably would have been better split too as they also really wound each other up but the parents in this case wanted them kept together.
My DCs school has a priority for twins as it has two classes (but only if the twins need to be separated from Reception). As a lot of schools only have one.
It works quite well, as yours have started together I would talk to the teachers about what they think.
Mine were together from Reception - single entry school so no choice. Disadvantages were many....they sat together as they were of similar abilities, the less confident one failed to develop their own friendships, teachers refused to separate them, the teachers constantly compared their abilities, she discussed one twin at meeting when we had made an appointment to discuss the other.
Problems were caused at home when one child was asked to be a witness against the other in a classroom incident - she felt intimidated, panicked and lied - the other twin felt very betrayed.
Many other things went wrong, but it was a while ago, it was in short a disaster for us. In the end we moved schools so we could separate them...best decision we ever made, so lovely to have teachers who treated the dcs as separate children.
I decided to put my dts's in separate classes right from reception.
Best decision for us, they have both developed individual friendships when before school they were joined at the hip.
They play separately at playtime, although sometimes their respective groups play together.
It has also had a really positive impact on their time together out of school. They play really well together for the most part and if possible their bond has grown stronger from having time apart.
There are another set of twins in their year and their mum has separated them too. They too have flourished.
I have b/ g twins who have been in separate classes since Y1 and the change in ds was almost miraculous! He is now out of his sister's shadow and doing really well. I think with b/g twins it is less of an issue to separate them.
Do the classes mix around every year? My DTs are in the same class. They could do with being separated now they are KS2, but the classes stay the same throughout the school. It doesn't really seem fair to drag one away from their friendship group. It might have been better to start in different classes
Parents also get to choose at our primary; only 1 set of twins in the whole school are together (and they're identical so it's rather confusing). All four sets in DD's year are in separate classes. The classes are mixed between Yrs 2&3 but no one has changed their initial decision, at least in the last 4 years.
And I agree with the other posters who said separating them did wonders for their confidence, they came home bursting with news about what happened in their class - it was something that they uniquely belonged to and they valued that.
When I asked ds what he thought he said, twins need time apart whether they are enemies or best friends....my twins are best friends but his friend doesn't get on with his twin, so he sees it from both sides.
At our school twins are always separated unless there is a very compelling reason for it not to happen. We have four classes per year level and classes are changed around every year.
My DDs are together in YR, it's the school's policy to start them in the same class unless the parents feel very strongly otherwise. However, they were put in different learning groups from the beginning, to encourage them to learn and play a bit more independently. It seems to be working well for them, as they can still seek each other out when they want to be together, while also doing stuff separately.
The classes are usually kept together for Y1 and then mixed up for Y2 onwards. But school have said that they can separate DDs from next year if it looks like that will suit them.
Thank you, interesting to hear the different experiences. I see most people have chosen to separate.
I wanted the girls to be together in reception as I thought it would be too much of a shock to the system for them to start school and be separated all at once. I didn't really think about how this would have implications further down the line. I thought they mixed the classes up each year (did last year and the year before) so I hadn't really considered it would be a decision that I'd have to stick with for all 3 years they are at the school.
To be fair, their teacher does say they don't actually spend that much time together in the classroom and they are in different groups for everything so lots of mixing up during the day. They do seem to be having difficultly making individual friends but they are v young for the year (5 in July) so perhaps it will come with time.
And I love BlackJackCrossed's DS's comment that twins need time apart whether they are enemies or best friends - very wise boy!
I plan to keep them separate from the start so it's never an issue of the year they have to separate. Dd1 is already at school so I will just explain that they each have their own class and teacher. I've seen, in the secondary school I work in, one set of twins who'd always been together then when they started at secondary they were split and the less confident of the two ended up on tablets for depression as she couldn't cope. I imagine that's rare but it did confirm my thoughts. Two sets of twins started at dd1.s school last Sept and they went into separate classes and are doing well.
My two started off in reception together, were separated for y1-3 and put together in y4 and again now in y5. The teacher asked if I was ok with them being put together as they shared the same best friend and they felt it wouldn't be fair for one of them to be with the friend. I was fine with it, they are perfectly behaved at school so there's no problems in that respect - they leave all their fights for home time!
I don't know if they'll still be in the same class for y6, probably as there's been no problems. They're both the same academically and aren't particularly competitive.
I don't know what happens at secondary but they'll be fine either way, they cope quite happily apart and at one point even wanted to go to different secondary schools.

Flower power: As promised, the Knapp Flower Shop has replanted itself in its pre-Hurricane Ike space, 1122 45th St. on the island.
The space, which officially debuts to the public today, gives Knapp Flower Shop a walk-in and retail area, owner Nelda Knapp Engstrom reports.
Knapp Flower is a third-generation family business that has operated on the island for 87 years. Engstrom's grandmother opened the shop in 1926 in the basement of her home in the Lost Bayou area of Galveston to supplement her husband's broom manufacturing business.
She grew her own flowers. Engstrom's father, Howard Knapp, delivered them on his bicycle. Later, Knapp, his wife, Christa, and sister worked in the family business until 1987, when Engstrom returned to Galveston to help. The business is in its third location since 1946. (The second location is where the entrance of Ball High School is now).
After the 45th Street building was badly damaged during Ike, which struck in September 2008, the family elected to reduce the footprint of the store by leasing out part of it. When the space became available again, Knapp Flower Shop decided to expand.
The full-service flower shop focuses on fine fresh flowers, plants and event design. It also offers nationwide delivery.
"We are returning to our roots by creating a cutting garden for our very own locally grown flowers and foliages," Engstrom said.
Hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and by appointment Saturdays. For information, call 409-763-8581 or visit www.knappflower
"We thank the Galveston community for their overwhelming support and encouragement," Engstrom said. "Thanks also to the many employees, some of whom have given 25 plus years of service, for our continued success."
Blossoming: In other floral news, longtime mainland shop A Creation For You Florist is under new ownership, but keeping the same name to honor former owner, the late Robin Reznicek.
Marlene GeramiAmbriz and Adrian Ambriz are new owners of A Creation For You Florist, which will remain at 819 Bayou Road.
A Creation For You Florist recently added new designer Jo Jo Sandoval,who has been featured in Weddings of Houston Magazine and on local TV stations for his arrangements.
The shop is featuring homecoming mums of all sizes, including wristlets, finger mums and garters, catering to surrounding school districts.
The shop also offers services for weddings, quinceaneras, reunions, church florals, seasonal gifts, floral baskets and funeral arrangements. For information, call 409-938-7151.
Ample supply: When it comes to breastaurants, the Clear Lake area's cups runneth over. Houston-based Rick's Cabaret International, the publicly traded company that owns 40 gentlemen's clubs nationwide, said it plans to open a Bombshells restaurant on East NASA Parkway early next year.
Bombshells will feature sexy wait staff and music from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily. The concept is in the genre that includes Hooters, Twin Peaks, Bone Daddy's and others operating in the area. Stay tuned.
It's still open: Managers of Peak Nutrition, 6187 Central City Blvd., want patrons to know the health store is open. Windows have been boarded since a driver in August suffered a seizure and crashed a pickup into the store.
Contractors are expected to soon complete repairs to the building. Until then, the store continues to sell its supplements and other products and keep regular hours.
Setting the table: Look any day now for Sal and Pina Ruggieri to debut their new downtown island eatery Trattoria La Vigna, 420 20th St. Biz Buzz couldn't pin down and exact opening date, but sources say the soft opening of the Italian concept should commence sometime this week.
The Ruggieri family owns Lafitte's Beat Gift Shop, 2115 Strand in the island's downtown. But they're no strangers to the restaurant business. The couple at one time owned Italian eateries in Baytown and La Port. Trattoria La Vigna is in the building formerly occupied by Que Cafe. Stay tuned.
Lotus position: In this time of federal furloughs and economic uncertainty, who couldn't use some relaxation? The Yoga Haven, 2507 Market St. in the island's downtown, invites any furloughed government employees to try any of its regularly scheduled classes and ask for the "Furlough Free" class, owner Kathleen DiNatale reports. Just as it sounds, the Furlough Free class is free to furloughed employees.
"We want people who are affected by the shutdown to use yoga as a way to relax and stay strong while they have this free time," DiNatale said. Visit the www.theyogahaven.net for class schedules.
Scissor time: Employment agency A1 Best Staffing plans a 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. ribbon-cutting today to celebrate new offices at 6511 Stewart Road in the West Island Professional Center. Businesses are invited. Call 409-497-4031 or visit www.A1BestStaffing.com.
"We always try to persuade our local clients to interview local job candidates first, before we search further to fill their vacancies," manager Cathy Townley-McGaughey said.
"I truly believe that our recruited candidates living in Galveston should have a fair chance at local employment."
Look for A1 Best Staffing to expand with a mainland presence early next year.
Float the Boat: Island-based Artist Boat is planning its 10th annual Float the Boat fundraiser from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Nov. 16 at the Galveston Artist Residency, 2521 Ship's Mechanic Row in the island's downtown.
Tickets are $40 in advance ($50 at the door) and include a shrimp boil, wine tasting and live music. The event also includes art auctions and contests. The Artist Boat, a nonprofit group, promotes awareness and preservation of coastal areas and the marine environment through sciences and the arts.
Businesses and individuals are encouraged to help by becoming event sponsors, donating money, time and items for the live and silent auctions. Visit ArtistBoat.org or call 409-770-0722.

Unanswered: Lookup with multiple values
I've put a few fields in a table which are looking up values in another table, and I ticked the multiple items box in the wizard.
This works fine if I want to enter data into the table, I get a nice little dropdown tick box. But I've also made a form to make data entry easier and these particular fields have an empty dropdown box in the form.
Is there something else I have to do to the format of the field or the form so that the form is seeing the lookup data?

dont' use lookup ta\bles or the look up tables wizard.
instead I'd suggest
create a separate table for those 'lookup entries', nclude whatever defiens that row. say its product types, so you'd need a primary (unique) key [PK] and a description. ther PK can be numeric or alpha or alphanumeric doesnt' mater providing its unique. a PK doesn't have to be an autonumber soemtimes it makes sense to use alpha values (eg payemnt types CHQ (cheque),EFT (ElecFundsTransfer),DD(Direct Debit)
then adda column to you other table and make it the same data type (and size if string)
then define a RI relationship between the tow tablles with product type the 'master' and products the other.
go to your form design and then use a combo or list box for the column and set its row source to be the product types tableI'd rather be riding on the Tiger 800 or the Norton

Thanks Healdem
I just came back on here to say don't worry, somehow I've managed to make it work, deleted a few things, and re-added them, and it's working.
I think your advice was a bit beyond my capabilities anyway! I'm a novice!

anna sims (March 17th, 2012)
Me and my Family have stayed at Pitton Cross about four times altogether and we cannot not imagine that anywhere else could beat this site, it was our intention to try out our tent quite locally the first time we used it which is why we chose Pitton Cross but now we can't keep from there, it is a beautiful spot and the site is perfect, the staff can't do enough for you, they are brilliant, the pitches are perfect with more than enough space between each pitch and the facilities are excellent and very very clean, the farm shop has all the essentials and more and if there is something we have ever left home without we have always found it there. would absolutely recamend this site. 5*
Miss Blanchard (March 11th, 2008)
We stayed in this Park last Year. Its not a large site with limited amenities but it does have a Play Park for the kids a small site shop for essentials, but there is a supermarket is just down the road. Gas, Very good clean hot showers ample toilets. This is very Quiet and friendly site.
Camping is very resonably priced. Caravan side the pitches are flat with or without electric hook up.
Down sides but it may have been the time of Year it was extremley windy as its on the top of the cliff so ask for a sheltered spot.
Have you stayed at Pitton Cross Caravan & Camping Park?
If so please add your review and share your experiences with other potential holidaymakers.

This may have been going on for a while, or just incorporated this week, but while I was scouring the web for Daytona 500 tickets on ebay today I happened to notice a few familiar icons below each auction listing.
eBay, one of the forerunners with Web 2.0 concepts, was one site that I had expected would take much longer to change. 6 years ago they were ahead of 99.9% of us, but now they've grown so large that making any changes takes as long as in any other corporation. 16 round table discussions, 14 tele-conferences, 795 shareholder votes (you do know I'm making these numbers up don't you?) and before a year passes – innovation!
I saw four icons at the bottom of an auction. One was StumbleUpon. Since I was frantically bidding I didn't stop to take a screen capture, or notice which auction, or if a set criteria caused their display.
Replicate it? Not at this hour. Perhaps it was a test. Only for email watch list updates. Or first time viewed. At any rate, expect to see those Web 2.0 icons to your auctions on a regular basis, soon.
Update – January 28. The social marketing icons set out on ebay's auction listings.

Fitch Ratings raised its opinion of Life Technologies Corp. Wednesday, saying the company's has improved its credit by paying down its debt and reporting stable results.
Fitch raised its issuer debt rating on the life sciences and medical research tools company to "BBB" from "BBB-" — Fitch's lowest investment grade rating. The company's credit is now two notches above non-investment grade or "junk" status.
The agency said Life Technologies has paid back $1.2 billion in debt since November 2008, when it was formed through the combination of Invitrogen Corp. and Applied Biosystems Inc. Life Technologies' 2010 results met Fitch's expectations and it said the integration of the two companies has been successful.
Shares of the Carlsbad, Calif., company rose 52 cents to $53.60 in afternoon trading.

Eastern military in Libya fear attack on oil ports
Haftar's spokesperson, Ahmed Al-Mismari claims that forces supporting the Libyan Government of National Accord(GNA) and its defense minister Mihdi Al-Barghathi are gathering near Al-Jufra in the south to attack the Oil Crescent export ports.
|The four main export ports in the Oil Crescent were recently seized by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, commander of the Libyan National Army (LNA) associated with the House of Representatives (HoR) based in the east of Libya in the city of Tobruk. The HoR does not support the GNA nor does Haftar. Mismari said that along with the GNA forces were the forces of Ibrahim Jodhran. Jodhran was head of the Petroleum Forces Guards from whom Haftar seized the oil ports. Mismari also claimed that an Al-Qaeda-linked extremist group was involved which he did not specify.
"All those forces are positioned there and they are trying to advance toward the oil terminals after they have formed an operations room headed by Al-Barghathi – dubbed as Operations Room for Liberation of Oil Terminals. Fight between our forces and those of the UN-proposed government is drawing nigh."Mesmari also claimed that the LNA and Haftar's Dignity Operation control most western cities and that all Tripoli residents support their operation. This is stretching the truth to put it mildly. Militia opposed to Haftar and loyal to the GNA or at least opposed to Haftar control much of the west and have considerable support in Tripoli and Misrata.

This entry for Wave of the Winter has got to be the best one yet, if not just for the smiles. We learn early on about the benefits of sharing in life, it's a concept that's passed down from one generation to the next. Let's assume that Mike Ho played an instrumental role in teaching a thing or two about Pipeline to Mark Healey, and he probably slipped a little something in there about sharing along the way. So it makes sense that here, when Mike and Mark share the love (and the barrel) on this Pipe bomb, their tag-team technique is impeccable.

Greetings from Northern Arizona
I'm in Flagstaff, AZ. After several years of not riding my bike except a couple times to work, I finally committed to it this year during bike to work week. I'm still riding and loving every commute! For July I committed to not driving the entire month. So far, I've carpooled once because I had a flat and was running late.
I'm now in the market to build a commuter. I've modified my old Trek by adding fenders and putting on skinny road tires. I bought a computer and some new dual sided pedals (clips on one side, flats on the other). While I like this bike and it's providing much pleasure, I think it's too small for me.
I've been watching craigslist for several weeks for a good deal, but there just aren't any so far. Small town syndrome perhaps? I've recently started using Craigslook to expand my search geographically, but now I'm finding too many bikes! LOL I really want to get something I could tour on also.
Anyway, when I research different bikes I keep getting hits on this forum. I've read many posts and am really impressed by the great group of cyclists here! You guys (and girls) seem to be very friendly and helpful, so I decided I should setup and account and say hello. (I also wanted to be able to view pictures)
So.... Hello :)
If anyone has advice on finding/building a commuter on the cheap, I'm all ears.
Thanks to everyone for all the useful information posted here. I'm already loving these forums!
Welcome to the forums.

Looking for something cool to do with the family during the holidays? Perhaps an activity that has a little Canadian connection? Look no further than the Museum of Art, which is presenting until January 15, 2017 a stunning exhibition on Art Deco automobiles from the 1930s and '40s.
Did you know that The Guild of Automotive Restorers in Bradford, Ontario, recreated the long-lost 1935 Bugatti Type 57S Aérolithe displayed in Rolling Sculpture: Art Deco Cars from the 1930s and '40s? (The original show car disappeared in the late 1930s and nobody really knows what happened to it, although there are hypotheses flying around.)
Not only did The Guild recreate this fabulous long-lost car; they did so using 1930s materials and techniques! In addition to the same type of magnesium-aluminium panels used by Jean Bugatti back in the day to create the body, they used the oldest Type 57 chassis in existence and three other Bugatti parts–engine, transmission and rear axle. While the front axle is missing, you need three of these five Bugatti parts, to call a Bugatti a Bugatti. They've got four. So their recreation is actually a Bugatti… and it has been enthusiastically accepted by the Bugatti Owners Club. Be sure to read the very informative exhibition label to discover fun details about the original car and the recreation.
CanSouth would like to thank the coordinating curator of the exhibition for sharing the photo of the spectacular Aérolithe. Check the museum website for details about the exhibition.

The Trade Act of 2002 amended COBRA to provide a second 60-day COBRA election period for certain individuals. They must be eligible for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) or alternate trade adjustment assistance (ATAA), and not have elected COBRA during the initial 60-day election period that directly followed an ATAA/TAA-related loss of coverage. The intent of this second 60-day election period is to enable those individuals who became TAA or ATAA-eligible after their initial COBRA election period has expired to take advantage of the Heath Coverage Tax Credit (HCTC). With the help of the HCTC, the cost of COBRA benefits may become financially manageable for some individuals who could not otherwise afford health coverage. These new COBRA provisions are effective for individuals whose successful petitions for TAA or ATAA were filed on or after November 4, 2002.
The process for determining individual TAA/ATAA certification begins when employees (or their representatives) petition to the Department of Labor to recognize their employer as being adversely affected by trade. Generally, an employer can become TAA/ATAA-certified if the employer meets the following criteria:
If the Department of Labor approves the petition, the employees are notified in writing by their local state workforce agency. Once the employees receive notification, they may apply for TAA or ATAA benefits on an individual basis.
Individuals are potentially HCTC-eligible under TAA when they are either receiving Trade Readjustment Assistance (TRA) benefits or are eligible to receive TRA payments but have not yet exhausted unemployment insurance benefits.
Individuals are potentially HCTC-eligible under ATAA when they are eligible to begin receiving their ATAA benefits.
Highlights of the TAA/ATAA-Related COBRA Election Period
Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What is the impact on a TAA/ATAA recipient's HCTC registration process if they elect COBRA during the second election period?
Answer: The TAA/ATAA recipient's HCTC registration process does not change. The individual will need to provide a copy of their original COBRA election notice, which they received as a result of their termination from employment and invoice.
Question: How will a health plan administrator (HPA) know that an individual is eligible for a temporary extension of their COBRA election period (i.e. a special COBRA election period)?
Answer: TAA and ATAA eligible individuals should receive from the state workforce agency a certificate that specifies the date they have been determined to be eligible for TAA or ATAA benefits. HPAs may use this certificate to verify that the TAA/ATAA individual is eligible for the special COBRA election period and the date when the special 60-day COBRA election period begins.
This certificate should not be confused with the letter that the TAA/ATAA recipient receives when his or her employer's petition for DOL worker group certification is approved.
The Department of Labor has stated that information on the possible availability of the special COBRA election period should be included in the summary plan description (SPD) of a group health plan as part of its discussion of continuation coverage provisions.
It is anticipated that information on the right to the special COBRA election period, together with other information relating to TAA/ATAA benefits and the HCTC, will be made available to potentially eligible individuals in connection with the certification process for trade adjustment assistance.

Roma's worse fears have been confirmed with the news that Damiano Tommasi has been ruled out for six months.
The Italian international clashed with Gerry Taggart during Roma's pre-season game with Stoke on Thursday.
He was stretchered off during the game in Austria and he flew back to Italy on Friday for treatment.
Specialists have now confirmed that Tommasi has damaged the ligaments in his knee.
Tommasi will have surgery in the next few days which will rule him out of action for until January next year.

Reader: 4/28/2002>
Dr. Lin.
I had a vasectomy 4 days ago, and the pain in my lower right abdomen is quite intense at times. Is this normal? I have tried taking the tylen?l and it doesn't seem to help.
Dr. Lin: 4/29/2002> Yes! The pain is due to the pressure produced by excessive sperms against the vasectomy knots.
You may also experience testicular pains.
Since you are too young, the pain may persist until your testicular function produces less and less sperms.
You can slow down the testicular function by taking antihistimane (allergy) drugs, but the drugs may also cause impotency if you take them for a long time.
If you did a vasectomy after your 30, you might experience less complication except erectile dysfunction.
