'Jane By Design' Renewed For 8 More Episodes
'Jane By Design' will be back this summer! (Maybe this will get Gray to finally crack a smile.)
Good news, Jane By Design fans! Our sister site Deadline.com is reporting that ABC Family has picked up the quirky series for an additional eight episodes, which will air this summer. This is especially good news for those fans — myself included — freaking out over all the relationship drama stirred up during last night's little camping excursion. Thankfully Jane (Erica Dasher) and Billy (Nick Roux) will have more than one episode to win back their significant others.
Or, you know, decide to go out with each other instead.
Now that you know the show will live on this summer, what do you want to see happen? More catfights between Jane and India? More romantic tension between Jane and Billy? Hit up the comments section!

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt's prime minister says the street violence and political unrest that has engulfed the country for more than a week is threatening the nation's already ailing economy.
In a brief statement on TV Saturday, Hisham Kandil also condemned recent attacks by protesters on state property and said no government can effectively govern in the current climate.
His comments come a day after protesters hurled firebombs and flares at the presidential palace in Cairo.
Egypt's foreign currency reserves have been cut by more than half since the 2011 uprising that ousted longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak. Foreign reserves currently are estimate at around $15 billion.
The Egyptian pound has also lost around four percent of its value due to the recent turmoil.

The only way I can make Italy fit into our racer's timeline is if Steffie's Hotel was in Italy. Is possible?
They raced the Netherlands on the 29th just after they returned. I saw it happen.
I've heard people saying they came from Schiphol on the very morning that the event took place so on thursday they would have arrived.Again Good luckGreetz Dutch Samadhi
I can't find any flights that would arrive early enough for the teams to make the 2 hour drive to Vierhuizen by 9 am.Maybe they arrived the night before at Schiphol Airport and had to wait for the "garage to open" at 6 AM. That would explain why we see 5 cars there with an expected 6th car to arrive shortly. And a helicopter in the air. It would be a bunch point that sets up the teams for multi-team shots on the bikes.So Ericka and Brian got lost on the way to the windmill? I hope they can dance well with wooden shoes!
They'll probably leave tonight [31 Jul] From 16:00 onwards from schiphol.
Mauritius not possible timeline-wise. From Dubai on the 29th, to Mauritius, then to the Netherlands by the morning of the 30th?Now a TBC in Stockholm... that's interesting. We'd be fitting another leg in there somewhere to make it work though. So the question is... are we going to have 11 or 12 legs?Eurasia race again?

BEIJING (AP) — China has called for joint efforts to denuclearize the Korea Peninsula following reports that North Korea may be restarting a plutonium nuclear reactor.
"To achieve denuclearization and to maintain peace and stability is what China has been advocating," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said Thursday at a daily briefing. "It takes efforts from all sides."
A U.S. research institute said Wednesday that a recent satellite image appears to show North Korea is restarting its 5-megawatt reactor at the Nyongbyon nuclear facility, which was shuttered in 2007 under the terms of a six-nation disarmament agreement.
U.S. special envoy Glyn Davis has traveled to Beijing this week to discuss the nuclear issue with China. Hong said all sides should work to resume the six-party talks.

CRESTVIEW � Local arts organizations have an idea for Christmas shopping: How about buying one-of-a-kind, handmade gifts from local craftsmen and fine artists?
CRESTVIEW � Local arts organizations have an idea for Christmas shopping: How about buying one-of-a-kind, handmade gifts from local craftsmen and fine artists?
Three area arts organizations are sponsoring the annual CALA: Crestview Area Loves the Arts showcase of hand-crafted works by area artists.
The Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce Arts & Culture Committee, Okaloosa Arts Alliance-North committee and the local Friends of the Arts will present the Dec. 7 event.
"Here is an idea," Arts and Culture chairwoman Rae Schwartz said. "Let's buy Christmas presents from small local businesses and self-employed people."
Schwartz said by buying local, shoppers' money remains in the community. By buying from local artists, shoppers are assured their gifts are unique. And by shopping at CALA, shoppers will meet the artists who crafted the gifts they select.
"This way, more local people will have a better Christmas," she said.
Schwartz said multiple fine and visual arts will be represented, including china painting, wood turning, painting, photography, book and fabric arts.
"Many of the artists have had their works on display in the display cases at the library," Schwartz said.
Live music will be performed during the event, to be held in the Crestview Public Library meeting room. Limited exhibitor space is still available, Schwartz said. Works must be handmade, she said.
WHAT: CALA: Christmas Arts & Crafts Festival
WHO: Sponsored by the Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce Arts and Culture Committee, Okaloosa Arts Alliance-North and Friends of the Arts
WHEN: 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Dec. 7
WHERE: Crestview Public Library
DETAILS: Fine arts for sale, live music. Free to browse. Call 585-5672 to exhibit. Not for sales representatives.

Uncivil Marriages
The critical buzz on I Think I Love My Wife and Premonition.
I Think I Love My Wife (Fox Searchlight). Chris Rock directs and plays the lead role in this reinterpretation of Eric Rohmer's 1972 French New Wave classic Chloe in the Afternoon, about a married man's extended flirtation with infidelity. Most critics aren't impressed by the unlikely remake. In Entertainment Weekly, Lisa Schwarzbaum moans that Rock "has taken Rohmer's marvelously probing, psychologically refined, exquisitely yakky, and deeply French movie and turned it into a coarse-talking, race-conscious, tonally challenged life-crisis comedy." The Philadelphia Inquirer's Carrie Rickey admonishes, "As usual, [Rock's] observational humor zings (and stings)—but this is a movie, not stand-up." Surprisingly, one of the most positive reviews comes from the New York Times' A.O. Scott, who proclaims Rock's effort to be an "unusually insightful and funny mainstream American movie about the predicaments of modern marriage." (Buy tickets to I Think I Love My Wife.)—D.S.
Premonition (Sony). Critics are nearly unanimous in their disdain for Premonition, in which Sandra Bullock plays a woman whose husband may or may not have been killed in a car accident. Not only is the film "a deadly bore from start to finish," as the Los Angeles Times gripes, but "[e]ven more annoying is its blind-alley structure resulting in an unsatisfying mind game for the audience." In Salon, Stephanie Zacharek comments, "The picture can't decide between cheap scares or deep thoughts, so it goes for both." Other critics sense impending doom for Bullock's career. The New York Times' Stephen Holden calls the film a "giant step backward" for the actress, adding: "Embodying a paranoid but plucky Everywoman clutching at an elusive mate while trying to maintain her sanity, the best Ms. Bullock can manage is to seem glumly opaque." (Buy tickets to Premonition.)—D.S.
Addiction (HBO, begins Thursday, 9 p.m. ET). This 14-part documentary series explores drug and alcohol addiction, with a different prominent director responsible for each segment (though HBO handled postproduction). The stories are wrenching, but some critics aren't impressed. In the New York Times, Virginia Heffernan comments, "[A]s art it's monotone; it's hard to believe it's the collaborative work of so many otherwise individualistic artists." And Newsweek observes, "The sprawling scope of Addiction is both its greatest virtue and its only real weakness." Still, the films' message gets across, as the Los Angeles Times notes: "[I]t's a giant-sized public-service announcement, Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Drug Addiction but Didn't Know Whom to Ask, dominated by cool, collected, thoroughly informed talking heads with side trips to an ER, a drug court, treatment facilities and selected messy lives."— B.W.
Andy Barker, P.I. (NBC, Thursdays, 9:30 p.m. ET; also at NBC.com). Conan O'Brien's former sidekick, Andy Richter, stars in this new comedy series—as an accountant by day, accidental detective by night. Critics seem charmed by the off-kilter humor. In the Washington Post, Tom Shales muses, "Richter is an implosive presence who works well when surrounded by the weird and wacky." The New York Observer is confident the antics will have a broad appeal: "[A]udiences probably won't need a lot of explanation as to why a talking Sandra Bullock doll from Miss Congeniality becomes a major plot point, as it does in the pilot episode," and Entertainment Weekly's Gillian Flynn observes approvingly, "[W]hen an entire episode is based around a 'murderous chicken cartel,' there's not too much room for improvement."— B.W.
Magazine redesigns. Redesigned issues of the New Republic and Time hit newsstands this week. Readers of the scrappy, low-circulation political weekly will notice big changes: TNR is switching to a biweekly schedule, with longer reported pieces and more Web-only content—and its look and feel are going upscale. The New York Times writes, "[T]he magazine is fatter, with more photographs, articles, graphics … all packaged under a lush cover." Editor Franklin Foer told political Web site Politico.com that the magazine aims "to be the New Yorker of politics"; Foer rather painstakingly introduces the new issue in a video on TNR.com. The new Time will be cleaner, rely more heavily on graphics, and include several new sections. Editors also promise that the magazine's cludgy prose style will be brought up-to-date: According to the New York Times, Time has banished its "signature syntax, parodied by the humorist Wolcott Gibbs with his phrase, 'Backward ran sentences until reeled the mind.' " But the New York Observer's Tom Scocca criticizes the magazine's apparent desire to emulate the Economist—a magazine he considers "aggressively boring." Scocca concludes: "When other magazines say they want to be like The Economist, they do not mean they wish to be serious. They mean they wish, by whatever means, to be taken seriously."— B.W.
Back to Black, Amy Winehouse (Republic). The 23-year-old British bad girl opens her second album with a hip-hop inflected Motown number, singing, "They tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no"—and U.S. critics are falling for both the music and the attitude. Newsweek calls Winehouse a "perfect storm of sex kitten, raw talent and poor impulse control"; the Washington Post indulges her louche side in a profile that begins, "the more Amy Winehouse drinks, the better she sings." Her voice—according to a squib in The New Yorker—"combines the smoky depths of a jazz chanteuse with the heated passion of a soul singer," and other critics note that she channels '50s and '60s girl groups and vocalists like Billie Holiday, albeit with up-to-date beats and tawdrier diction. An "A-" review from Entertainment Weekly praises her lyrics: "smartass, aching, flirty, and often straight-up nasty —[they] raise this expertly crafted set into the realm of true, of-the-minute originality." (Buy Back to Black.)—B.W.
Edward Scissorhands. Choreographer Matthew Bourne, best known for an all-male staging of Swan Lake, takes his dance adaptation of Tim Burton's 1990 gothic love story on a U.S. tour. Critics praise what the Washington Post calls a "loopily inspired spectacle" for its energy and whimsy—and accessibility. The New York Sun labels Bourne "a stubborn and determined populist," and Joan Acocella, in a major New Yorker profile, writes that "Bourne is the most audience-conscious artist I have ever spoken to." Praise for Scissorhands itself is slightly less glowing. Acocella notes that "pure dance is [Bourne's] weak suit," and less august critics kvetch that the story lacks enough narrative drive. The St. Louis Riverfront Times complains, "Bourne has labeled his show a 'theatrical dance sensation.' I saw the dance, but anything that could purport to be unusually theatrical or remotely sensational eluded me." (Click here for tickets and video clips from Edward Scissorhands.)—B.W.
300 (Warner Bros.). Dawn of the Dead director Zack Snyder's ultraviolent film about the battle between Spartans and Persians at Thermopylae in 480 B.C. has some critics looking for a message about contemporary politics. The New York Times explains that the story "could be construed as a thinly veiled polemic against the Bush administration, or be seen by others as slyly supporting it"—but Snyder insists he had neither in mind when he made his film, an adaptation of the graphic novel by Sin City's Frank Miller. The movie itself is receiving mixed reviews. In Entertainment Weekly, Lisa Schwarzbaum lauds the film's spectacle but warns, "[S]urfaces, most of them computer-generated, are all this newfangled sword-and-sandals epic is about," and Slate's Dana Stevens predicts the film will be "talked about as a technical achievement, the next blip on the increasingly blurry line between movies and video games." On this note, the Los Angeles Times' Kenneth Turan sighs, "[U]nless you love violence as much as a Spartan, Quentin Tarantino or a video-game-playing teenage boy, you will not be endlessly fascinated." (Buy tickets to 300.)—D.S.

The only other thing of note, however, is that many on AW have clained these come at "stock" gap in both applications. Get a gap tool, as 1 of 4 plugs were gapped at .032, the rest were .035-.040. Not a big deal to fix, obviously, but it seems like it's always a good idea to check.
Is your definition of high boost just anyone w/ a chip (0.8 to 1.1 bar)?
PS I had mine gaped at 0.028 is that right? (0.032 - 0.004 - ATW, 1.1bar)
the bentley manual suggests .028 for the 1.8t's... that is the only time i heard that being used for a gap. just my .02
Believe it or not apparently the AEB engine has a different gap spec .... go figure :roll:
Spark plugs (AEB, 1.8L engine)
Gap 0.70 to 0.90 mm (0.029 to 0.035 in)
Chatting with some race techs at the track and reading through Vortex (not the best source I know) and ClubB5.
The general rule seem to be for every +50 hp = one step colder - 0.004 spark plug gap. I figure my chip gives me just about that, so the BKR7E @ 0.028 seem to be about right. I don't know a 100% if that is right because I have not tried it before. But I'll give it a try and will report further.
Here's one thread that I found on the subject: Plug Gap (http://www.passatworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120767)
Glad to hear you're happy with the new plugs.Pat, is the F5DP0R a triple-electrode plug? Triple-electrode plugs are stock on AEB's - I've tried single-electrodes and they just don't work. The best plug that's worked for me so far is the F6DTC, which is one heat range colder than the F7LTCR, but they (F6DTC) are so hard to find. I just recently ordered some from rockauto.com but they screwed the order up so bad that after waiting for two weeks, only to find out they were out-of-stock, I canceled the order. I'm about to receive a set of one-heat-range colder cheapie triple-electrode Densos from sparkplugs.com - the K22PBR-S. I have used the stnd heat range K20PBR-S10 with good results except it was too hot. At $2 each, that's pretty good, but I'm still in search of the perfect plug that's not hard-to-get.
You said, "I would suggest these coppers for anyone in a 1.8t." I would not. For a stock 1.8T I would recommend stock plugs. Additionally, depending on the state of tune, you could go two heat ranges colder, sometimes even three for crazy cars. I've been using the Bosch F5DP0Rs successfully for a while now. It is what several tuners recommend for higher HP 1.8Ts.
I'm glad to hear you're happy with what you've got. That's all that matters. However, I would hesitate recommending one plug for every 1.8T out there, regardless of tune.
The F5DPOR is a single electrode plug. I think they're one heat range colder than stock. The best price i've see on them is about $12 each. This is one single-electrode plug that you've seen in action working on the AEB. I think you'll agree it does the job just fine. 8)
BTW, I'm getting the new springs on in about three weeks. That with the r-comps should shave another 1.5 to 2 seconds per lap.
Yeah, and the "normal" price is around $20 per plug. I know it's not cheap, but how much has everyone put into their cars to this point? To have the right plug in there for an extra $30 is a drop in the bucket, especially for the long life....
Has anyone tried those new Bosch Platnium +2 or +4 plugs that don't have the hook electrode, but two or four side electrodes?
They look like plugs you pull out of F1 or Indy car engine. Mazda Rotory engines have always used plugs that look like that with the side electrodes. Its very Intresting to me. Its Bosch so it can't be bad can it?

In 2005 engineers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory unveiled Jaguar, a system that would later be upgraded into a world-beating supercomputer. By 2011 it had swelled to a room-size system that used seven megawatts of energy, ran nearly 225,000 processor cores and had a peak performance of 2.3 quadrillion calculations per second. Still, to keep up with ever more sophisticated problems in energy research, the engineers had to scale Jaguar's processing power 10-fold. Simply adding more CPUs would have required a ridiculous amount of power—enough for 60,000 homes. Brute force wasn't going to do the trick.
Oak Ridge engineers instead turned to video games—or more precisely, to the graphics processors used in Microsoft Xboxes, Nintendo Wiis and other video-game systems. In late October 2012 Jaguar became Titan, a supercomputer that leverages both CPU and GPU (graphics processing unit) accelerators to deliver 10 times the performance of Jaguar while consuming five times less power. It has become the world's most powerful supercomputer, beating the DOE's Sequoia, which had held the title since last June. Titan's performance comes at a price, however. Because Jaguar used only CPUs, its computer architecture was simpler, which made it easier to write its software. "The algorithmic complexity to write that code for a machine like Titan is momentous," says Tom Evans, an Oak Ridge computational scientist.
Titan will initially support a handful of key projects at Oak Ridge, including Denovo, software that simulates the behavior of neutrons in a nuclear power reactor. Oak Ridge's engineers designed Denovo for Jaguar as a way to help extend the life of the U.S.'s aging nuclear power plants, which provide about a fifth of the country's electricity. Running Denovo, Titan will take 13 hours to model the complete state of a reactor core at a specified point in time, a job that took Jaguar 60 hours to perform. "The ability to burn nuclear fuel uniformly is very much dependent on knowing and being able to predict the distribution of neutrons in the core," says Evans, who helped to create Denovo. The DOE will also make Titan available to researchers in academe, government and industry.

Old-fashioned translation gets new-fangled website
The back-to-Latin English translations of the parts of the Mass now have their own website. Launched by the U.S. bishops in anticipation of their expected approval in 2010, the faithful can now read what they'll be saying on Sunday, beginning with their response to "The Lord be with you": "And with your spirit." And that means?
The entire study text for the "ordinary" of the Mass--the parts that don't change--are available at www.usccb.org/romanmissal. People will surely notice the changes to the Gloria, Confiteor, Holy, Holy, and response to the invitation to Communion--"Lord, I am not worthy that you should come under my roof." I guess some people will be taking the consecrated bread home?
I don't think these changes are necessary at all, and the changes make little sense in modern English. The whole project is basically an expensive attempt to comply with the letter of LIturgiam authenticam, a document on translation aimed squarely at the English translations of the liturgy. (No other language group is revising their texts. As for expensive, every parish will eventually have to buy new hymnals and ritual books, and every publisher is going to have to update scores of books, musical arrangements and worship aids.) For background, check out Peter Nixon's August story on uscatholic.org: Incoming Missal.

Yeah will do. Never used to 'recovery ride' but know i feel alot better when i do. It will be a spin on the rollers tonight tho as i wont get home until late.

Well, that guy is in for some pain. Hope he is taking the week after off from work
My guess is...(assuming he is a fit guy who does Cootha regularly)...
- Guess-timate 1 back loop of Cootha anywhere from 20mins to 45mins depending on if he stops for a breather (i would!). I dont think he would go back down to the bottom of the botanic gardens ramp each time. Just keep doing the loop.
- Factor in some time to eat/sleep and ponder how the pros do it
- Within 24 hours, im wager that he will do 22 full loops
I might try and see if i can keep him company on a few loops. It an impressive goal thats for sure.

Kenneth Joseph Beam was born on Aug. 19, 1924, to Joseph William Beam and Mildred Iona (Harper) Beam at Willow Creek, Mont., in Gallatin County. He moved with his family to the Hood River Valley, Ore., in 1933.
At 15 he joined the CCC (he declared that he was 17 in the application). He joined the Coast Guard in July of 1942, and served in Ketchikan, Alaska, then on a lighthouse on the island of Scotch Cap in the Aleutians.
After a year on Scotch Cap, he got a 96-day leave, during which he went to visit an aunt in Bozeman, Mont., where he met a nursing student, Julia Ruth Huntley. They fell in love and were married on Aug. 30, 1944.
Ken played football for the Coast Guard for one season before he was transferred to lighthouse duty in the San Francisco Bay, and was honorably discharged from the Coast Guard in October 1945.
In early 1946, he and Julia moved to Long Beach, Calif., where Ken earned his GED and learned the meat-cutting business from his uncle. They moved back to Hood River to work for Merle Easton, who owned Merle's Markets, and while there, Joseph William Beam II was born on Dec. 31, 1947. Daughter Jacqueline Ruth was born on April 24, 1950.
Later, while working for Safeway, he got transferred to Enterprise, Ore., where Edward Scott was born on Aug. 8, 1955.
The family moved back to Hood River, where Ken worked for Merle Easton until Merle sold his stores, then he worked in Portland for a short time, then they moved to Lebanon, Ore., where he went into business for himself in a meat market.
After about eight years in his own business, he sold out and the family moved to Medford, where he worked in a variety of markets in the Rogue Valley. Ken bought a grocery store in Ashland in 1977, ran it until 1982, sold the grocery store and bought a tavern and operated that for a few years before moving back to Hood River, where he and Julie operated an adult foster home for about five years. After selling the foster home, they moved back to Medford in 1992.
In 1994, they moved to Indianapolis, Ind., to live with his son and his wife and to assist in his business. While in Indiana, they were able to watch grandson Mike's last two years of high school basketball. They moved back to Medford in 1996 to live with his daughter, Jackie, and her husband.
Ken became the chief cook, bottle washer and grocery shopper at Jackie and Mark's house until health halted it — only months before his death.
He was preceded in death by wife, Julia, and son Edward, sister Virginia Adamson Lee, and brothers Charles William Beam and Chester Ronald Beam.
He is survived by son Joseph; daughter, Jacqueline Gramcko; three grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; and brothers Benjamin Howard Beam, Clifford Eugene Beam and James Lawrence Beam.
Kenneth died at home at age 88 on Aug. 23, 2012. His gentle humor, ready smile, great memory and willingness to work hard will be missed by everyone who knew him.

Pesch, van, family
Pesch, van, a Dutch Mennonite family, since about 1620 living at Utrecht, where many members served as deacons from 1668 until 1875. Originally they were tanners and fur traders, later furriers and bankers. Jacob van Pesch, a deacon, edited Joannes Houbakker's sermons (two volumes, published at Amsterdam in 1730 and 1732). There were also some members of the van Pesch family later at Rotterdam, Haarlem, and Amsterdam. Abraham van Pesch, b.1806 at Amsterdam, d. at Zutphen on 10 September 1850, studied at the Amsterdam Mennonite Seminary in 1826-1832 and was a minister in the congregations at Gorredijk-Lippenhuizen 1832-34, and Rotterdam 1834-41; he retired for a year because of illness, and then served at Uithuizen 1842-1844 and Zutphen 1845-1849. He published Het Doopsgezinde Kerkgenootschap gekenmerkt door het streven naar Vrijheid (Rotterdam, 1836). He also copied a large number of the old books and documents of the Rotterdam Mennonite archives; these copies are now in the [[Amsterdam Mennonite Library (Bibliotheek en Archief van de Vereenigde Doopsgezinde Gemeente te Amsterdam)|Amsterdam Mennonite Library]].

As if it wasn't bad enough that they crashed a white house party, both Michaele and Tareq Salahi have now contacted some networks in hopes of selling their story for hundreds of thousands of dollars, according to a television executive.
The anonymous executive reveals that the couple, cast to be on the upcoming Bravo series – The Real Housewives of Washington DC, contacted several networks to urge them to "get their bids in" for an interview. The Virginia couple is trying to cash in on their new found "fame" and are looking for a payment that is in the mid-six figures range.
In the mean time, the couple canceled their scheduled appearance on "Larry King Live" on Monday. Even though networks don't usually pay for interviews, in the past they have offered to pay for highly sought interviews.
For now, It is unclear what the future holds for this fame hungry couple but we will definitely keep you updated. It's sad enough that these two showed up unvited to the state dinner, to now try to cash in on their bad behavior seems pretty tacky and disgusting on many levels.

Ailing worker, post office at odds over mysterious leaking package; Service denies spill of toxic material
A postal worker says a mysterious leaking package from Yemen has left him seriously ill, but the U.S. Postal Service denies the package ever existed.
The Florida Center for Investigative Reporting, in a story printed in Sunday's Miami Herald and the Ledger of Lakeland, reported that Jeffrey A. Lill suffers from extreme fatigue, tremors and liver and neurological problems. The symptoms are consistent with toxic exposure, problems that he said began after he handled the leaking package Feb. 4, 2011.
The center tracked down co-workers who said that they saw and smelled the package and that Lill, now 44, acted to protect them. The missing package has created a mystery -- and determining what was in it, if it existed, could be the key to curing Lill.
"I think they've just been protecting themselves," said George Chuzi, a Washington lawyer helping Lill and his family pressure the Postal Service to investigate. "If we're right, they didn't do something they were supposed to do."
The Postal Service denies that Lill was exposed to a potentially toxic package. Postal Service officials declined to comment when contacted by the center, but in a March 9 letter to Chuzi, USPS lawyer Isabel M. Robison acknowledged that a harmless spill occurred Feb. 2, 2011. She said nothing was spilled Feb. 4, 2011.
"A review of Postal Service records and multiple inquiries at both the Area and District levels has confirmed -- as we previously indicated -- that there was no hazardous spill on February 4, 2011, at the Orlando" mail processing center, she wrote.
But Lill and his co-workers Paz Oquendo and Yolanda Ocasio told a different story. Oquendo said she smelled the noxious odor first, which was coming from one of the large mailbags hanging near the package-conveyor belts.
She said she told Lill, the shift supervisor monitoring sorting from a platform.
Lill headed toward the center of the sorting floor -- an area workers call "the belly" -- to investigate.
Then he smelled it -- a strong chemical stench that he said he couldn't identify. It was coming from a bag wet with a brown, viscous substance. Lill looked in the sack and saw a broken package with tubes and wires sticking out. He remembers reading the return address with surprise: Yemen.
Four months earlier, two bombs from Yemen had been sent through FedEx and UPS in an unsuccessful al-Qaida attempt to blow up cargo planes, and the Postal Service had alerted its workers to be on the lookout for packages coming from the southern end of the Arabian Peninsula.
Fearing the package was hazardous, Lill ordered the 40 postal employees out of the belly and immediately opened the large bay doors for ventilation. Lill said he then moved the bag to a cart and pushed it outside to the hazmat shed.
Lill said he then radioed his manager to notify her of the suspicious spill. She told him the next on-duty supervisor would finish handling the incident. The center obtained a time-stamped email Lill sent to his supervisor, Cynthia Hickman, reporting the exposure to a potentially toxic substance. Hickman did not respond to requests to comment.
Lill said that after moving the package, his throat burned and the fumes gave him a headache. He called his mother in Rochester, N.Y., in case it made the news.
But it didn't. The center reported that the Postal Service did not investigate the suspicious package as a security or health threat and did not report it to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as is the protocol.
In the weeks after Feb. 4, Lill, who had rarely missed a day during 10 years of working with the Postal Service, fell inexplicably ill. He sleeps 16 hours a day, cannot work and must be cared for his by mother.
Today, after having seen more than two dozen doctors, including toxicologists and neurologists, no one has been able to diagnose his illness.
"He was so vital, so energetic and so personable," said his mother, Janet Vieau, 64. "He would play basketball and the drums."
Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle, R-N.Y., wants answers. Buerkle, whose district includes Lill's new residence in Rochester, has pressured the Postal Service to investigate.
"We want to see if the appropriate steps were taken by the post office, to see if the employees are safe," said Timothy Drumm, Buerkle's chief of staff. "But since they say the incident did not happen, we can't even get that far."

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes the capture of Emiliano Viviano was great business for the club.
The six-cap Italian international moves to the Emirates Stadium on loan from Palermo, and will challenge Wojciech Szczesny and Lukasz Fabianski for the Gunners' number one spot.
Viviano, who spent last season on loan at Fiorentina, brings experience in an area that it's been lacking in north London, and the manager is understandably thrilled to have another addition at the club.
"He comes to the Club at the top of his game. It was a very good deal for us at a good moment, I think it was a no-brainer as well," Wenger told Arsenal Player.
"With two goalkeepers available for the Premier League and all the competitions we face, we felt we were a bit short because sometimes you have injuries and sometimes you need to rest one of the goalkeepers.
"At the moment, Wojciech is No 1 unless I decide otherwise. They are all competing for the place of the No 1. At the moment, one and two are Wojciech and Fabianski. After, maybe I will rotate.
"Viviano is a highly-rated goalkeeper in Italy so we have three goalkeepers that are very compact quality-wise."
Viviano began his career at Brescia, enjoying a loan spell as Cesena at the start of his five-year stint professional with the club.
He then signed for Bologna in 2009, before switching to Inter Milan two-years later. The 27-year-old didn't make a Serie 'A' appearance whilst at the San Siro, and moved to Palermo the following year.
However, he was shipped out to the Viola midway through the campaign, and has left the Stadio Renzo Barbera on a short-term deal once again this summer.
His exit from Italy is the gain of Arsenal, in the eyes of Wenger at least, and Viviano will hope to get a chance to prove himself in the first team at some stage in the coming months.

Beatrice Cenci: Limited Edition (DE - DVD)
Gabe Powers takes a look at Lucio Fulci's more sombre and political side
This review is sponsored by
This is the tale of one young lady's murderous vengeance as wreaked against her abusive father. Like every good Christian, Beatrice Cenci (Adrienne Larussa) first tries speaking out about her family's frequent abuse. When the Roman authorities ignore her cries for help, and after her father locks her away for her reports, she decides to take matters into her own hands, constructing an elaborate plot involving her besotted servant Olimpio (Thomas Milan).
After a decade of working in relative obscurity, director Lucio Fulci took his first steps into the realms of controversy and ultra-violence with his brutal period drama Beatrice Cenci (aka: The Conspiracy of Torture, Der Nackte und der Kardinal, and Perversion Story—which is not to be confused with Fulci's One on Top of the Other, which was released the same year). The film was based on an actual historical murder case, and is a rather stanch and pointed attack on certain facets of the Roman Catholic Church, though not nearly as pointed as his later attack in Don't Torture a Duckling. More importantly, Beatrice Cenci is a pro-feminist morality tale, and a total downer at that. Fulci's name would later become synonymous with misogyny thanks to masochistic gore films like The New York Ripper, but at this relatively early point in career he was more interested in subtlety.
The film itself then lingered in obscurity for decades, and never saw an official American video release. Even in Fulci's native Italy it went unseen on DVD. For years hard-core fans had to trade off Z-grade VHS boots taken from a Japanese Laserdisc release. Due to the fact that the film has been referred to as one of the director's personal favourites and its difficult to find nature, this German release marks the first chance many fans have to see the film at all on disc, with the English dialogue track and the option of English subtitles during Italian playback. For these reasons this release is a must buy for fans, but the film's actually quality may lead to interest from non-fans as well.
Beatrice Cenci is easily one of the director's most restrained features, as dictated by its historical content. Scenes of torture and violence serve a narrative purpose, and are played out for reasons of dramatic tension rather than pure shock. Barring that, however, there are signs of Fulci's latent need to shock and disgust his audience with these acts of violence, and the film is obviously a stepping stone towards the director's later and bawdier gorefests. Though fans of the dripping guts and running claret will probably be disappointed by the film's relative lack of graphic bloodshed, they should be impressed with the tactile and disturbing nature of the violence they get, and should recognize the film as a developmental step in the director's career. Unlike the eye gouges and flesh chewing of Zombie, or the intestinal track vomiting and drill press lobotomies of City of the Living Dead, the violence of Beatrice Cenci actually hurts to watch, physically and emotionally.
Besides the maturity and class of the visuals, and the melodramatically appeasing of its performances (can Thomas Milan do wrong?), the feature's most impressive aspect is its non-linear storytelling. Back and forth narratives without obvious markers for flashbacks weren't entirely unheard of in 1969 ( Citizen Kane and Lolita had popularly done it several years previous), but they weren't as easily accepted in the era, and definitely weren't the norm for the director. The structure does lead to some confusion, but serves the story well from the standpoint of dramatic tension. We know from the beginning of the film that Beatrice, her servant and lover, and her family are responsible for the death of her father, but we don't know the degree of their guilt or why they did it. In fact, we assume we know the depths of his guilt and depravity rather early on, but as the story unravels we realize things are even worse than they first seem.
Really, as a fan, I say it's just a thrill to finally see the damn movie, but having it look good is a definite plus. This anamorphically enhanced transfer has its share of bumps and bruises, but the overall look is pretty even and clear. The first and most obvious problem is the occasional harshness of the transfer's contrast levels. Blacks are rich and deep, but often envelope what appears to be a little more than their share of image. The colour pallet is purposefully dull, mostly consisting of browns and golds, and seem to be accurately portrayed here. Detail levels fluctuated throughout, from sharp to soft, but artefacts are minimal, and grain is pretty fine.
The 1.78:1 aspect ratio seems to be slightly cropped, mostly on the right side. Sometimes script is cut off on the right, and shots that one assumes were supposed to be centred (Fulci loves his eyeball close-ups) are shifted slightly to the left. My assumption is that the OAR is actually something like 1.85:1.
The English, German, and Italian tracks are all presented in simple mono sound, but surprisingly enough are entirely different tracks. Not only have the voices been dubbed, but the music and sound effects are different on each track. It appears that most of the actors were speaking English on set, so for lip-sync the English track is probably the most advisable. However, the Italian and German tracks are livelier when it comes to music and sound effects. All three tracks are more or less equal in digital clarity, there's not a whole lot of definition, and higher volume levels (along with esss sssoundsss) distort a bit.
It's important to note that this 'Limited Edition' release is only called that because there are only 999 copies with this particular cover. The alternate and not limited covered editions are exactly the same. There isn't a whole lot in the way of extras, but it doesn't hurt to bad because they'd probably be in German only anyway. We get a collection of the basics—a German trailer, a photo gallery with some nice original poster art, and a series of trailers for other New Entertainment releases.
In a recent article on Rottentomatoes.com, writer/director Eli Roth compiled a small list of his favourite obscure horror films, and included this title. Though I was quite impressed with his list overall (especially the inclusion of Who Can Kill a Child), Roth's hyperbolic text isn't really to be believed. He says that Beatrice Cenci would've earned a Best Picture Academy Award if released today, which is quite far from true. However, the film is an impressive addition to a misunderstood maestro's cannon, and one that transcends the lines of horror film fanaticism.

Colorado judge strikes down state's marriage ban; 24th consecutive win in 1 year
July 09, 2014
Today, July 9, District Court Judge C. Scott Crabtree struck down Colorado's ban on marriage for same-sex couples, marking the 24th consecutive ruling in favor of the freedom to marry (with no rulings against) since June 2013. See all of the marriage wins in court here.
The ruling has been stayed for now, pending an appeal.
Today's decision is in two consolidated marriage cases, Brinkman v. Long and McDaniel-Miccio v. State of Colorado, filed in October and February, respectively, by private counsel from Wilcox & Ogden, P.C.; Thomas Russell; Reilly Pozner LLP; Law of the Rockies; and Gutterman Griffiths PC. The cases involved more than ten same-sex couples seeking the freedom to marry in Colorado or respect for their marriage licenses from other states.
In the ruling, Judge Crabtree explained how civil union - which Colorado has had in effect since 2013 - is a lesser, unequal form of family status that does not compare to marriage. He writes:
The fact that the State has created two classes of legally recognized relationships, marriages and civil unions, is compelling evidence they are not the same. If civil unions were truly the same as marriages, they would be called marriages and not civil unions. If they were the same, there would be no need for both of them. The fact that Colorado denies same gender couples the same right to apply for federal benefits that it grants to opposite gender couples is a violation of the Equal Protection Clause.
Notably, Judge Crabtree was appointed by Republican Governor Bill Owens in 2001. He is the fifth Republican-appointed judge to rule in favor of the freedom to marry, following judges in New Jersey, Kentucky, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
Evan Wolfson, president of Freedom to Marry, released the following statement:
Yet another court has concluded that there is no good reason for denying gay couples the freedom to marry, and has found marriage discrimination unconstitutional. It is time that Colorado's gay couples and their loved ones be able to share in the joy and security that marriage brings, and time for the Supreme Court to bring the freedom to marry home nationwide. Every day of denial is a day of wrongful deprivation. Today's latest victory in the Mountain West shows that all of America is ready for the freedom to marry.
Wendy Howell, State Director of Why Marriage Matters Colorado, applauded the ruling today and called on the state Attorney General to stop defending discrimination. Freedom to Marry has been proud to serve as a founding and leading member of Why Marriage Matters Colorado, the public education campaign to increase public support for the freedom to marry in the Centennial State. Howell said:
Today's ruling, combined with the earlier decision of the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, leaves no room for doubt that Colorado's ban on marriage for same-sex couples is unconstitutional and indefensible. With court after court recognizing the freedom to marry, their decision should be a simple and immediate one.
We call on Colorado Attorney General John Suthers and the other defendants to let today's historic ruling stand and to drop, once and for all, their defense of Colorado's unconstitutional marriage ban.

Driver tells troopers that car chase was on his bucket list
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) —
The Iowa State Patrol says a man pulled over in Des Moines after a car pursuit told state troopers that he wanted to be chased because it was on his bucket list.
Des Moines television station KCCI reports that the man refused to halt a little before 7:30 a.m. Thursday when a trooper tried to stop him over a violation on Interstate 80. The 10- to 15-minute chase ended soon after he left the interstate. He was taken into custody.
That's when the 46-year-old Des Moines resident shared his bucket list story with troopers. Court records show Jones was charged with OWI, eluding, interference with official acts, speeding, operation without registration, unlawful use of license and a parole violation.
State Patrol Sgt. Scott Bright told The Associated Press that he'd never heard such an excuse in his 28 years of policing.

Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries Enforcement Division agents cited a Pineville man for alleged commercial fishing violations in Plaquemines Parish on Nov. 12.
Agents cited Jason A. Wilkerson, 23, after an anonymous compliant was called in saying he was transporting a large amount of black drum illegally.
Agents spotted the vehicle in Belle Chasse and saw that the bed of the truck full of black drum. Agents performed a vehicle stop on the truck where Wilkerson identified himself as the fisherman and produced resident commercial fishing licenses.
Upon investigation, agents determined that Wilkerson obtained his resident vessel and fishing licenses by fraud since he is not a bona fide Louisiana resident.
Agents cited Wilkerson for taking commercial fish without non-resident commercial fishing licenses, non-resident gear licenses, and non-resident vessel licenses. Investigation is ongoing and further charges may be filed regarding obtaining commercial fishing by fraud.
Each of the license violations carries a maximum penalty of $500 and up to 90 days of jail.
Agents seized a total of 2,346 pounds of black drum.
Agents participating in the case are Sgts. Adam Young and Villere Reggio, and Senior Agent Robert Cosse Jr.

Get ready for another snowstorm this weekend
February 21. 2013 12:37PM
MANCHESTER - New Hampshire residents are bracing for another big snowstorm that's expected to hit this weekend.
Meteorologist Eric Schwibs of the National Weather Service said the storm is expected to hit the Granite State Saturday night and continue into Sunday. While it won't pack as much of a punch as the blizzard earlier this month, Schwibs said this storm could dump from six inches up to a foot on the southern part of the state.
Schwibs said areas from the Lakes Region south will be affected, and the Seacoast could see the highest totals. The storm appears to be headed more east than north, which means the North Country won't be hit nearly as hard.
Schwibs said temperatures during this storm are expected to be close to 30 degrees, making for a wet, heavy snowfall.
Schwibs said forecasters should have a better idea of what to expect tomorrow when they get another look at the storm's path.

Taking Monsanto to the People's Court
On April 21, approximately 100 people came to a courtroom in Iowa City to attend a mock trial called the Monsanto Hearings, the second of five such events scheduled nationwide. The trial was modeled after a preliminary hearing, an attempt to collect stories about harm caused by agribusiness giant Monsanto and determine if further public scrutiny is warranted.
The court's five presiding judges—including a professor, a graduate student and an organic farmer —made no pretense of impartiality. "We are under no obligation to be even-handed," they announced early on, "because in the court of public opinion, Monsanto is not even-handed. They have money for lobbyists, advertisements, corporate-funded research and media campaigns. The influence of this hearing, by contrast, depends on the power and truth of what is said." The court, they explained, would not be considering legal violations, but rather violations of nature, ethics and human rights.
Untraditional as it might be, the hearing had an air of formality—the judges looked smart in their black robes, and witnesses swore to the truth before testifying, some in person and some over video. The first witness was a Vietnam veteran, trembling in a Hawaiian shirt, suffering from Hepatitis C linked to exposure to Monsanto's Agent Orange (of which an active ingredient, 2,4-D, is a common lawn pesticide today); then a small farmer whose neighbor lost acres of organic crops due to pesticides drifting on morning fog; later, a garden and soil educator who brought a wooden box of soil and worms to the witness stand.
Other witnesses included professors, farmers, scientists and local activists. Their testimonies ranged from personal to technical, from stories of the approximately 200,000 Indian farmers who, indebted after Monsanto's cotton seed prices rose from 7 to 17,000 rupees/kg, have committed suicide, to explanations of the influence of corporate agribusiness on U.S. land-grant universities and how minute manipulations of chemical structure have allowed Monsanto to sidestep health regulations. One man came dressed as a "superweed"—a plant that developed pesticide resistance after exposure to the chemical glyphosate—and lounged with his feet on the edge of the witness box. "I don't give a fuck about Monsanto," he said, swigging from a bottle marked "Roundup," "though they do make a good drink."
One common theme throughout the testimonies was the importance of adhering to the precautionary principle, which dictates that if an action (or, say, a pesticide or a genetically modified crop) has the potential to cause significant harm, it should not be implemented until it has been proven safe. The European Union mandates use of the precautionary principle when regulating chemicals and biotechnology, but the United States doesn't, instead placing the burden on consumers to prove harm once the damage has already been done.
A Month Without Monsanto
April Dávila wondered what it would take to cut the GMO giant out of her family's life. She found that it was far more entrenched than she'd ever realized.
Which is, in a way, what the activists behind the Monsanto Hearings are trying to do. By using the courtroom as a public theater, they aim to spread knowledge and conversation within a region—the Midwest—that is heavily dependent on large-scale agriculture. I talked to the event's main organizer, Sarah Kanouse, a member of the artist and activist group Compass. She cited a groundswell in public resistance to Monsanto's products as an impetus for the hearing. "We wanted to see what an amateur legal proceeding would look like," she explained.
The Monsanto Hearings are based on a robust international tradition of peoples' tribunals that dates back 40 years to the Russell Tribunal, which examined human rights violations by the U.S. military in Vietnam. Because peoples' tribunals are not legally binding, their main goal is to bring visibility to offenses that might otherwise go unseen or unrecorded, and to victims for whom legal protection has fallen short. By specifically adopting the mantle of a legal proceeding, a peoples' tribunal can call attention to the insufficiency of the law when it comes to fostering social and environmental justice.
A similar Monsanto Hearing was held recently in Carbondale, Illinois, and more are planned for Chicago, Santa Cruz and St. Louis, near Monsanto's headquarters. Footage from the Iowa City hearing will be shown this summer at dOCUMENTA13, an art festival in Germany, as a preliminary documentary, and a more polished documentary is also in the works.

PHOENIX (AP) — Four Mexican residents remained hospitalized Wednesday after the charter bus they were on was struck by a pickup truck going the wrong way on a rural Arizona interstate, authorities said.
The pickup's 78-year-old driver was killed and nine passengers aboard the charter bus owned by TBC Connexion were injured in Tuesday afternoon's accident on Interstate 10 in Casa Grande, about 50 miles south of Phoenix.
Officials with the Mexican Consulate in Phoenix said the four still hospitalized were family-related from Sinaloa. They didn't immediately release their names or provide updates on their conditions or injuries Wednesday.
The bus was headed from Mexico to Phoenix with 15 passengers and a driver, who escaped injury.
The Arizona Department of Public Safety identified the bus driver as Leonardo Leyva, 46, of Nogales, Ariz.
A DPS spokesman said Leyva was conscious and walking around when authorities arrived. But they also said he was covered in blood and was originally thought to be one of the injured. The DPS said the blood on Leyva actually was from another passenger.
A call to a listed phone number for Leyva in Nogales wasn't answered Wednesday afternoon and calls to TBC Conexion's offices in Phoenix and Tucson seeking comment on the crash weren't returned.
DPS officials identified the pickup driver as Francis Wilkens Gibson Jr. of Casa Grande. The truck burst into flames and Gibson was declared dead at the scene.
The cause of the crash remained under investigation and DPS officials said it still was unclear where Gibson got on the interstate.
DPS officials said that about two minutes before the 2:15 p.m. crash, they received two 911 calls about a driver on Interstate 10 — the main route from Phoenix to Tucson — travelling east in the westbound lanes.
"We were responding when the accident occurred," DPS spokesman Bart Graves said.
DPS Capt. Brian Preston said investigators were working to determine whether drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash.
The Casa Grande Dispatch reported that Gibson was a teacher at Evergreen Elementary School from 1968 until he retired in 1993.

This Positive Life: Nicole on Advocacy, Dancing and Making the Most of Life
March 20, 2013
Nicole Price switched from condoms to birth control as a form of pregnancy prevention with her long-time boyfriend, thinking that HIV was something that happened to "other people." After they broke up, he got sick, and she discovered that they were both HIV positive. Before her diagnosis, she had a troubled past that included meth use and dropping out of high school. Since her diagnosis, she has graduated from college with a degree in computer technology, become a program manager at the BABES Network -- YWCA in Seattle advocating for women with HIV, and has learned the importance of being non-judgmental.
Though hip surgery has made walking a chore for her in the past year, Nicole never misses a chance to dance on the weekends. Dancing is her de-stresser and her main form of exercise. She loves live music, she actively dates and she has found her voice by helping other women become educated and take control of their health. She is living proof that HIV is not a death sentence -- quite the opposite, it's given her a new life that she is proud to live!
Can you start by describing how you found out you were HIV positive?
Well, it was September of 2000 and I had been dating a guy for five years, but we broke up. And it had been a year since we had broken up and he got really sick and wasn't sure what was going on. He was having really bad flu, and didn't know what was going on. We were still really good friends and cared about each other. He ended up in the hospital, and about two weeks later, found out he had full-blown AIDS. So, he told me, and then I had to be tested. And I had to wait two weeks for the results. That was a very long two weeks. And I also tested positive. That was the end of October of 2000.
And how old were you then?
What did you think and how did you feel when you got news of the diagnosis?
Since I had to wait for two weeks, I had some time to think about it, researched a lot online. Kinda was trying to diagnose myself. I had an idea that I had it because I had gotten flu-like symptoms two years before, and got really sick for about two weeks straight. I couldn't keep anything down. So that kept sticking in my head. I had a good idea that I was going to be positive. But I was hoping I wasn't. When I got the news, I was in shock. I didn't speak, I didn't cry. I had a girlfriend with me, and I was just silent. I didn't talk probably until the next day; I was just in complete shock.
How long did you feel that way?
I was like that for two weeks, and then I started to get better, but I was probably pretending that it wasn't happening. And my ex-boyfriend was really sick, so I was trying to help take care of him when he got out of the hospital, because we were still friends. I was making sure he was taking his meds, and everything, because he had two opportunistic infections, so he was really sick. I kinda focused on helping him, and not thinking about it. And my counts were really good at the time, so I kinda just put it on him. I am a caretaker, so.
What was the first thing that you did that helped you come to terms with your diagnosis?
At first, I didn't want to tell anyone. I didn't want to tell my family and let them down. I was a meth user and I dropped out of high school. And I felt like, "Here's something my parents can't save me from, or fix." And I just felt horribly awful. So, I didn't tell them at first, but I think once I started telling my parents I felt better. I had someone else help me tell them, and they were very supportive. And once I started telling people and learning more about it, I felt better about it.
Did you realize that you were at risk for HIV at the time you were infected?
No, I had no idea. My boyfriend was 12 years older than me. We did use, but I never used injection drugs. For the most part, we used condoms. I was always worried about getting pregnant. So once I started birth control, I didn't even think of it. I mean, you don't think that things like that are gonna happen to you. That happens to other people. So, no, I never thought I was at risk.
What ended up happening to your boyfriend?
He ended up getting better. He started medication right away, and was doing really well. He got clean. I struggled with getting clean; I think I was trying to hide from a reality. But, he ended up getting better. We were going to get back together at that time, but we decided not to. But he started to do a lot better.
So, you believe you know, with certainty, who you got your HIV from.
Yes, definitely.
Were you ever able to talk to him about whatever feelings there were from you about being infected by him?
Well, he felt really guilty because I was so much younger, and I had never done any drugs before. So, he had this guilt that he got me started on meth, and now, here, he gave me HIV. And I was young, and he felt really guilty about it. But, I didn't blame him. He didn't force me to do drugs. I didn't say, "Let's go get tested together." "Here, let's use condoms." He didn't really know about it, so I was never really upset with him about it. He was, sort of, after I was diagnosed, a big brother to me. He was trying to help me get clean and help me get better. But I was never really mad at him for it. It's my responsibility too.
Did you say that your parents were the first people you told about your diagnosis?
No, the first person I told was an older woman that was trying to help me get clean. A friend of the family. I called her from the hospital. And, then, one of my girlfriends went with me to get tested. And I told another couple of friends. And then, of course, it kind of got out to other people.
How did you start the conversation when you would disclose to people during that time? That first person you told, that mentor, how did you start that conversation?
Well, she knew that he had been sick, and we all thought it might be cancer or something. We had no idea. So, I called her from the hospital and told her, "He has full-blown AIDS. And, there's a chance I could have HIV and I need to get tested." And that's all I said to her. But, once I started, it was pretty easy for me to tell, it was sort of this feeling of relief to tell people. So it wasn't that hard, it's just, "He was sick, we found out what it was, and I have HIV." I was maybe a little too honest about telling folks.
Was there any filter? How did you make the decision whether or not to tell a particular person you were positive?
No, there wasn't [Iaughs]. You know, I told the people that I worked for. I had two different jobs. I was waitressing, I told them. There wasn't really any set format that I used. I just told them. I figured, if it could happen to me, it could happen to anyone. And a lot of people should know about, because they don't really think about. They think it happens to other people who do different things.

On the data front, the optimism surrounding the U.S. labour market has been bolstered by strong U.S. housing and manufacturing data. It's worth pointing out that while the economic data out of the US has been broadly positive lately, it hasn't materially changed the market's perception on when the Fed will begin hiking interest rates. Thus, it's supportive for U.S. equity markets.
In the QE era, strong U.S. economic figures can result in a negative reaction from U.S. stocks because it makes the market jittery about the prospect of higher rates. This time is different because the market's expectations for monetary policy haven't really been altered, despite the general feeling from the Fed's July policy minutes that the doves are moving closer to becoming the minority.

This blend of definition and delicacy makes the Sancoale Superfamily versatile and appropriate for a variety of applications. The design minimizes the characters to their essence, leaving a default set of simple characters without notches or spurs. However, the typeface family's slightly technological feel still appears friendly and approachable to the reader. It's slightly condensed proportions and tall x-height also make the design readable at a wide range of sizes, which works especially well for web pages. These softer letterforms give Softened its unique, futuristic look--great for distinguishing your text or display. There are six weights with true italics. All insigne™ fonts are fully loaded with OpenType features. Sancoale Softened is also equipped for complex professional typography, including alternates with stems, small caps and plenty of alts, including "normalized" capitals and lowercase letters. The face includes a number of numeral sets, including fractions, old-style and lining figures with superiors and inferiors. OpenType capable applications such as Quark or the Adobe suite can take full advantage of automatically replacing ligatures and alternates. You can find these features demonstrated in the .pdf brochure. The Sancoale family also includes the glyphs to support a wide range of languages, including Central, Eastern and Western European languages. In all, Sancoale Softened supports over 40 languages that use the extended Latin script, making the new addition a great choice for multi-lingual publications and packaging. Sancoale Softened continues with Sancoale's successfully simple, geometric and legible structure. With its suitability for a wide range of uses, the Sancoale superfamily is a very economical and versatile addition to any designer's font collection.

No matter how good an investor you are, you can't do everything by yourself. Even if you do all your own research and analysis, digging through thousands of stocks and funds in search of the perfect investment, you still need a strong broker on your side at the end of the day to help you buy those investments, sell others, and eventually create the ideal portfolio.
Making sure you have the right broker on your side can make a huge difference in how successful you are over the long run. But how can you tell whether a particular broker will give you everything you need? You can get some of the answers by following one of many broker surveys that regularly come out, as long as you recognize the fact that brokers are not one-size-fits-all and that your specific needs may lead to a totally different decision.
A new winner
Kiplinger recently came out with its list of best online brokers for 2012. Given the cost savings that online brokers can give you compared to Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and other full-service offerings, many investors turn to them first.
If you look no further than the headline, you'll see that E*TRADE Financial (NASDAQ:ETFC) beat out all its peers to take the top spot. With E*TRADE earning top ratings for investment choices and customer service, countless readers will inevitably pick the discount broker simply on that basis alone.
But if you dig deeper into the report, you'll realize that different brokers do well at different things. For instance, for research tools, Fidelity scored the best. For the best user experience with their websites, Scottrade and Bank of America's (NYSE:BAC) Merrill Edge joined E*TRADE as top picks. And for those looking for banking services to go along with their brokerage accounts, Merrill Edge and Fidelity received top scores.
Even with this added level of scrutiny, you still can't rely entirely on the report for definitive advice. For instance, one big omission from the list is Vanguard, which didn't even make the cut for consideration.
In addition, drilling down beyond broad categories often leads to different results. For instance, the primary motivation for E*TRADE's strong score for breadth of investment choices came from its extensive individual bond offerings. Yet if you want to invest with exchange-traded funds, then E*TRADE falls short, and TD AMERITRADE's (NASDAQ:AMTD) list of more than 100 commission-free ETFs from a variety of different ETF providers easily goes to the top of the list. If you prefer a certain brand of ETFs, though, you might be best served by a broker that has a specific relationship with that ETF provider, such as Fidelity's deal to offer 30 different offerings from BlackRock's (NYSE:BLK) iShares family of ETFs.
Dealing with costs
Perhaps the most contentious area in trying to compare brokers is cost. The most readily available piece of information is how much a broker charges for stock commissions, but if you're not a frequent trader, that number may not be nearly as important as other fees.
To make a better choice, be sure to consider how you're likely to invest and what sorts of miscellaneous fees you're likely to incur. Don't just look at the cover page for that information; dig deep into the brokerage agreement to ferret out obscure charges like inactivity fees or account closure and transfer fees. That way, you'll avoid a nasty surprise at some point down the road.
Go your own way
Guides and lists of brokers can be helpful in gathering information you can use to make an informed selection, but don't simply take a recommendation from a survey without understanding its methodology. That way, you can be sure that the broker you choose will be right for you.
