UNITED NATIONS DPI/NGO CONFERENCE DECLARES MDGs "MUST BE" MET BY 2015
The Millennium Development Goals "can be, indeed must be, achieved by 2015," according to a declaration approved during the closing hours of the 63rd annual United Nations DPI/NGO Conference in Melbourne, Australia, on September 1.
Some 1,600 representatives from 350 non-governmental organizations in over 70 countries met under the theme, Advance Global Health: Achieve the MDGs.
The three-day conference was sponsored by the UN Department of Public Information, the NGO/DPI Executive Committee, and the Australian Government. It was held in Melbourne's Convention and Exhibition Centre.
The declaration called upon "all governments, agencies, corporations and individuals to deliver on their human rights obligations to over a billion people living in poverty, by committing the finances and political will necessary to achieve the MDGs."
"Achieving the MDGs is a moral imperative," agreed the participants after noting that:
"One billion people do not have access to adequate and appropriate food."
"2.6 billion people around the world lack access to an improved sanitation facility."
"Eight out of ten people who are without access to safe drinking water live in rural areas."
"Almost 9 million children die before the age of five; unaccounted more have preventable disabilities."
"At least 340,000 women die each year of pregnancy-related causes."
The document concluded that "it is unacceptable that so many children and adults in low income countries continue to suffer preventable illness, disability and premature deaths each year."
"The world," it continued, "knows how to prevent and treat most of the causes and has shown that well-focused efforts can significantly reduce levels of suffering."
Containing nine wide-ranging recommendations, it will be delivered to the UN High-level Plenary Meeting on the Millennium Development Goals (MDG Summit) at United Nations Headquarters in New York 20-22 September.
Drafted initially by a committee of physicians and others from the United States, Australia and India and circulated prior to the conference, the final declaration incorporated comments and ideas received both before and during the sessions in Melbourne.

We finally have a verdict on Dwayne Bowe's marijuana and speeding charge after his November arrest. Prosecutors say Bowe pleaded guilty to an amended charge of defective equipment and littering. He'll be fined $550 (plus court costs) and will not be on probation. The marijuana charge was thrown out.
Bowe pleaded guilty to amended charges of defective equipment and littering.

Prosecutor says it was an outcome consistent with what they normally give first-time defenders.
— Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) April 16, 2014
So the marijuana charge is thrown out. No probation, nothing. Only fines totaling $550.
— Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) April 16, 2014
What this means for Bowe and the NFL is speculation at this point. With that understood, let's do some speculating.
No drug charges likely means Bowe will be in the clear when it comes to a long-term suspension from the NFL. A four-game suspension for Bowe is probably not going to happen unless there is some kind of evidence the NFL deems permissible that the court did not. As things standing now, the NFL does not have a positive marijuana test and does not have a drug conviction from the courts. One would assume this means suspending him four games isn't an option.
This doesn't mean Bowe is totally out of the woods as Tamba Hali was suspended for one game after pleading guilty to a lesser charge in his marijuana case. However, Hali's charged with a drug related crime while there was no charge against Bowe for drugs. This may prevent the NFL from suspending Bowe at all. Still, it wouldn't be a surprise if the NFL did some kind of investigation in to Bowe's legal situation given Bowe's other issues with the league's performance-enhancing drug policy, so don't be surprised to see a post about that in the near future.
What we know for sure is this: Bowe's pleading guilty to defective equipment and littering is the best scenario to come out of this situation legally aside from all charges being dropped.
Now excuse me, I have a sudden urge to visit a local Sonic.

David. 20. I AM STRAIGHT SO STOP ASKING.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
What the fuck is my problem?? I get all upset when she goes out to drink with her friends, mainly because we always drink together. I mean, I just don't want anything bad to happen. Call me over protective, I don't give a fuck. But the thing is, I go out and have a beer or two with the guys sometimes. I guess the difference is, when I go out with the guys, it's like a beer or two. Her friends, I know they drink to get drunk usually. Nothing against them, they're awesome. I don't know. I guess I'm just being a little bitch about it all. Also, they smoke. I smoke occasionally, but it always bothers me when she does it. Not because I don't want her to, I suppose it's jealousy. I mean, I would LOVE it if I was able to come along, but these things are like team dinners and stuff, and I'm not exactly on the women's team. Maybe I'm just being too sensitive about it all? I don't know. Maybe if I just talked to her about it all? I'm fine with her taking a shot or two, but I don't want her getting super high or super wasted without me there. Or maybe I should just let her have her fun? I have no idea.
If you bothered to read all that, any advice? Send me an ask.

Game 7, The Wrapup (Pacers 108, Warriors 94): Is Jackson's short shift just a prelude to the Harrington-esque shutdown?Filed under: The Wrapup; Tagged as: Al Harrington, Anthony Randolph, Corey Maggette, Don Nelson, Stephen Curry, Stephen Jackson
By Geoff Lepper
Somebody cue Shirley Bassey and the Propellerheads. Because the Warriors sure seem to be stuck in a little bit of history repeating.
Fifty-three weeks ago, Warriors coach Don Nelson yanked Al Harrington from his rotation, playing him for less than 20 minutes in the fifth game of the season. In his post-game press conference, Nelson dropped the pretense that the two sides could peacefully co-exist while Golden State tried to accommodate the captain's trade request.
Wednesday, Nelson yanked Stephen Jackson from his rotation, playing him for less than 20 minutes in the seventh game of the season. In his pre-game press conference, Nelson dropped the pretense that the pretense that the two sides could peacefully co-exist while Golden State tried to accommodate the former captain's trade request.
"At some point, and I don't know when, we have to (trade Jackson)," Nelson told reporters before Indiana's 108-94 victory over the Warriors. "He asked to be traded, and we'd like to trade him. That's if we can."
Now the question is whether Jackson will continue to follow in the footsteps of Harrington, who never played again for the Warriors after his 16-minute stint against Denver on Nov. 5, 2008. Harrington left the team immediately thereafter, decamping to Los Angeles for a couple weeks until eventually getting dealt for Jamal Crawford of the New York Knicks.
There's no indication if Jackson will suffer the same fate, although it was certainly interesting when Nelson told reporters both before and after the game that Jackson was hurt, while Jackson responded that nothing of the kind was the case.
Said Nelson (via the San Francisco Chronicle): "He's got a sore back or hip or something. I didn't think he was moving very well. I didn't think he moved very well at the shootaround. I didn't expect that he'd give me very much, but he gave me what he had."
Replied Jackson (via Inside The Warriors/Contra Costa Times): "Ain't nothing wrong with my hip. . . . I'm fine. I've got a scratch. That's all it is. My back is not sore at all."
As I said in the live-game thread: Dr. Stevens, paging Dr. Mark Stevens.
There are a few differences in the two situations. Most notably, where Harrington was the one who begged off due to injury last season — citing the back problem that prompted Nelson to snarkily remark about medical qualifications of Harrington's agent, Dan Fegan — it seems like this time that the Warriors are trying to push the idea that Jackson is hurt.
At first glance, it's a strategy that doesn't make much sense. What Nelson is claiming is belied by the facts; Jackson made it clear with his 15-assist performance against Minnesota that there's nothing physically wrong with him. It's possible that a lingering injury has caught up with Jackson, but he managed to churn out far better performances than his desultory Wednesday play while nursing a broken toe for years.
More likely, the injury ploy is an attempt by the Warriors to pave the way to easing out Jackson if he doesn't rekindle the kind of energy he had on Monday.
It would be a gamble to follow such a path, especially when Marcus Thompson is reporting (via Twitter) from New York that Ellis and Nelson have just gotten into a verbal spat. Even if Monta's head is right, removing the best perimeter defender (sadly, that's what Jackson still is, when he cares to give enough effort) from a team that already is terrible on D is a recipe for more disaster.
Take it away, Shirley:
They say the next big thing is here,
that the revolution's near,
but to me it seems quite clear
that it's all just a little bit of history repeating…
Yes, Corey Maggette has regained his form offensively. But to say he decisively won his battle of the backup PFs with Tyler Hansbrough is wrong. Hansbrough couldn't stay with Maggette on the drive, but Maggette couldn't handle Hansbrough in the block, and Hansbrough created five second-chance points on his own with eight offensive rebounds. . . . I'm not there to speak to him directly, but Stephen Curry's confidence certainly looks shaken. I would have thought that coming off the bench, Curry would be freed up to look for his own shot more often, but that didn't happen (3-for-7 in 21 minutes, four assists against three turnovers.) . . . For the love of Franklin Mieuli: More Anthony Randolph (17 points, 13 rebounds, three steals, two blocks).
One Response to "Game 7, The Wrapup (Pacers 108, Warriors 94): Is Jackson's short shift just a prelude to the Harrington-esque shutdown?"
Can someone do an interview with Cohan or Rowell? Please? Will they even lift a finger to address this? Would love to at least hear them come out and apologize to the fans for this mess they created. Rowell at least certainly enjoyed taking credit for the playoff year. Cohan has been MIA throughout.

Substance abuse was examined in a group of 187 chronic mentally ill patients living in the community. According to ratings by aftercare clinicians, approximately one-third of the sample ahused alcohol, street drugs, or both during the six months before evaluation. Patients who were dually diagnosed with substance abuse and mental illness differed from those with mental illness alone in several respects: they were younger and more often male; were less able to manage their lives in the community in terms of maintaining regular meals, adequate finances, stable housing, and regular activities; showed greater hostility, suicidality, and speech disorganization; and had poorer medication compliance. In addition, they were nearly twice as likely to be rehospitalized during one-year follow-up. Substance abuse appeared to add the problems of disruptive, disinhibited, noncompliant behaviors to chronic mental illness.

The earliest strokes to be used were the sidestroke and the breaststroke. The sidestroke was originally used with both arms submerged. This practice was modified toward the end of the 19th century by bringing forward first one arm above the water, then the other, and then each in turn. The sidestroke was supplanted in competitive swimming by freestyle (see below) but is still used in lifesaving and recreational swimming. The body stays on its side and the arms propel alternately. The leg motion used in sidestroke is called the scissors kick, in which the legs open slowly, under leg backward, upper leg forward, both knees slightly bent, and toes pointed. The scissoring action of the legs coming smartly together after opening creates the forward propulsion of the kick.
The breaststroke is believed to be the oldest of strokes and is much used in lifesaving and recreational swimming as well as in competitive swimming. The stroke is especially effective in rough water. As early as the end of the 17th century, the stroke was described as consisting of a wide pull of the arms combined with a symmetrical action of the legs and simulating the movement of a swimming frog, hence the usual term frog kick. The stroke is performed lying facedown in the water, the arms always remaining underwater. The early breaststroke featured a momentary glide at the completion of the frog kick. Later the competitive breaststroke eliminated the glide. In the old breaststroke, breath was taken in at the beginning of the arm stroke. In the later style, breath was taken in near the end of the arm pull.
The butterfly stroke, used only in competition, differs from the breaststroke in arm action. In the butterfly the arms are brought forward above the water. The stroke was brought to the attention of U.S. officials in 1933 during a race involving Henry Myers, who used the stroke. He insisted that his stroke conformed to the rules of breaststroke as then defined. After a period of controversy, the butterfly was recognized as a distinct competitive stroke in 1953. The frog kick originally used was abandoned for a fishtail (dolphin) kick, depending only on up-and-down movement of the legs. Later swimmers used two dolphin kicks to one arm pull. Breathing is done in sprint competition by raising the head every second or third stroke.
The backstroke began to develop early in the 20th century. In this stroke, the swimmer's body position is supine, the body being held as flat and streamlined as possible. The arms reach alternately above the head and enter the water directly in line with the shoulders, palm outward with the little finger entering the water first. The arm is pulled back to the thigh. There is a slight body roll. The kick was originally the frog kick, but it subsequently involved up-and-down leg movements as in the crawl. The backstroke is a competition stroke, but it is also used in recreational swimming as a rest from other strokes, frequently with minimum arm motion and only enough kick to maintain forward motion.
The freestyle, or crawl, has become the fastest of all strokes. It is also the almost unanimous choice of stroke for covering any considerable distance. The stroke was in use in the Pacific at the end of the 19th century and was taken up by the Australian swimmer Henry Wickham about 1893. The brothers Syd and Charles Cavill of Australia popularized the stroke in Europe in 1902 and in the United States in 1903. The crawl was like the old sidestroke in its arm action, but it had a fluttering up-and-down leg action performed twice for each arm stroke. Early American imitators added an extra pair of leg actions, and later as many as six kicks were used. The kicks also varied in kind. In the crawl, the body lies prone, flat on the surface of the water, with the legs kept slightly under the water. The arms move alternately, timed so that one will start pulling just before the other has finished its pull, thus making propulsion continuous. Breathing is done by turning the head to either side during recovery of the arm from that side. Since 1896 the crawl has been used in more races than any other stroke.

LAFOLLETTE (WATE) - A Campbell County teacher has been indicted by a grand jury for inappropriate conduct with a student.
Lonnie Vann, 43, is charged with solicitation of a minor, sexual battery by an authority figure, tampering with evidence and assault.
Previous story: Campbell County teacher investigated for alleged inappropriate conduct
Vann, who taught at LaFollette Middle School, was placed on suspension without pay in October 2013 after allegations of inappropriate conduct arose.
The case was handed over to the District Attorney General and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation in November.
TBI agents say they determined that on October 22, Vann took a 13-year-old student off school property to Coolidge First Baptist Church. While in the building, Vann allegedly hugged the female student and tried to kiss her, both without consent.
Vann also allegedly tampered with evidence by altering images on a recording device at the church.
The TBI says Vann turned himself in at the Campbell County Jail Monday morning. He was later released on $10,000 bond.
Vann taught history and social studies at the school. He has also taught at the high school level in the past.

Hello ladies, well i must say it has been a while since i last posted on this forum. Me and hubby have decided to try for baby #3. It has been 5 weeks since having my implant removed and was just seeking some advice as to how long it can take to concieve? A dear friend of mine had hers removed 2 weeks before me and she has given me the delightful news that she has had a positove test this morning.
Would just like to hear off all you other ladies with any advice or just how long it took yourselfs to get a positive.xxx
Hi dell welcome back to tb x I dont have any experience of the implant but have just been having a nosey over on netmums and there is a thread there - responses ranging from ovulated straight away pg within 2 weeks to 2-3 months and some longer...hoping it is quick for you...Think everyone is different, I post on ttc2011 thread, Im ttc#2 would be nice to get to know you on your ttc journey xxx
hi em, thankyou so much for your reply and information. I shall take a look at netmums and see what they advise! Well I had my implant removed on 28/11/11 and i got my regular cycle a few days later, 2/12/11. I am now a week over due on my period and so have been thinking could i be pregnant, but i have done 3 pregnancy tests over the weekend and neg! i think my body may be confused with having the implant removed, as iv heard it can take a while for the hormones to get out of the body .
I posted on here in 2008/09 when i was pregnant with baby #2, i had unfortunately gone through 4 miscarriages trying for my 2nd baby, I got put under consultant and underwent many tests as to why i was losing my babies. when I concieved my little lewis (who will be 3 in april) he put me on a course of hormone pessaries, asprin and blood thinning injections, and miracally i got my baby. So i now have the mission of concieving and then keeping baby. Me and my husband have thought hard about having another, with all the implications we both know that it may not happen,but we want to give it ago. We have 2 boys (oliver 9 and lewis 2) and they bring us so much happiness.
I met a lot of nice ladies on here last time who gave me support and who I also was able to give advice to, so yes i would love to get to know you on your journey too.xxx

GoDaddy and Danica Are Very Effective at What They Do
By admin | February 4, 2013
By Richard Allen
Call their advertising campaigns vulgar, demeaning or over the top if you want, but the simple fact of the matter is people know what GoDaddy.com is and they can identify what the company is selling. Whether it be scantily clad women who seem to have nothing to do with internet domain names or a nerd and super model engaged in a passionate kiss, their commercials are often the topic of conversation.
And, call Danica Patrick over-hyped or more of a brand than a driver if you please, but people talk about her and focus on what she is doing. The combination of this company and this driver is an effective one, whether people want to admit it or not.
GoDaddy's commercials are typically outrageous, sometimes entertaining, and almost always provocative. Often, Danica is featured in those ads in less than flattering situations. And while this often causes people to criticize the company and her, the spots are usually easy to remember and cause the viewers to readily identify the product being sold.
Isn't that the point of advertising? Further, consider how many times you've seen a commercial and later on could not recall the product it was supposed to make you go out to buy. No matter how entertaining the spot might be, if you can't remember the product, it's a bad commercial.
One of Sunday night's Super Bowl ads by GoDaddy featured a super model, meant to represent the sexy marketing side of the company, passionately kissing a "nerd", meant to represent the techincal side of the company. Danica served as a narrator of sorts during the "action". The commercial drew criticism from more than a few circles but the company insists that it accomplished its mission.
"Attracting new customers is what advertising is all about," said GoDaddy CEO Blake Irving. "We wanted our Super Bowl commercials to generate new customers and overall sales, and that's precisely what happened. We set all time Super Bowl Sunday records for mobile sales, Website Builders, website hosting and new customers. This is a big win for all our teams who worked so hard to deliver on game day and also for all of our new customers looking to grow their small businesses."
Immediately after that particular ad ran, I observed a number of people pointing out that the company could sponsor a credible Sprint Cup or Nationwide Series team with a deserving driver for the same money. That may very well be the case. But, would they get the same return on their investment?
Like GoDaddy, the driver they sponsor is frequently the subject of conversation. Common complaints are that Danica gets too much attention for the results she produces and that her car is far more capable than its driver. Again, those criticisms may very well be true. But she has a sponsor on her car, and thus, a ride because of the way she presents herself.
Personally, I am not really a fan of either GoDaddy or Danica Patrick. But there can be no denying that both are very effective at what they do. And what they do is generate a buzz.

I am sick of advertisers telling me and sane minded folks, "it got you talking" blah blah blah. I tell you what those commericals do and others like them, it makes me remember them alright, NOT TO BUY THEIR PRODUCTS and I don't.

Hey, I am fine with Go Daddy featuring scantily clad women in their advertisements but this year's SB ad was terrible. No redeeming value whatsoever. Yes it might be getting lots of comments but most are negative beyond the point of being productive for sales.

Thank you Go Daddy for being a Nascar Team sponsor…This is what it's about…People seem to forget why the sponsors there (it's not to help racing) It's about moving product…Nascar teams can NOT survive with out this (note: I Believe within 10-12 yrs a complete revamp of $ distribusion will have to happen..but thats another day) & I Thank every team sponsor out there..I got little to no use for sponsors that bail on a team to get in bed with nascar & the france family tho

Note: Not a Danica fan but if you can even run with these guys …Ya hve to know what your doing & I'm pretty sure that the ones always complaining about her can't do that.
But less tv talk about her during the race (& ugh the pre race) would help

BY REPRESENTATIVE(S) Marshall, Harvey, Madden, Paccione, Berens, Borodkin, Boyd, Butcher, Carroll M., Carroll T., Frangas, Gallegos, Hodge, Kerr J., King, Knoedler, Liston, Massey, McCluskey, Penry, Stafford, Todd, White, Witwer, Coleman, Crane, Larson, Merrifield, Romanoff, Schultheis, Solano, and Vigil;
also SENATOR(S) Keller, Bacon, Dyer, Fitz-Gerald, Groff, Grossman, Hagedorn, Isgar, Kester, Mitchell, Shaffer, Tochtrop, and Veiga.
Concerning security breaches regarding personal identifying information.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
SECTION 1. Part 7 of article 1 of title 6, Colorado Revised Statutes, is amended BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION to read:
6-1-716. Notification of security breach. (1) Definitions. As used in this section, unless the context otherwise requires:
(a) "Breach of the security of the system'' means the unauthorized acquisition of unencrypted computerized data that compromises the security, confidentiality, or integrity of personal information maintained by an individual or a commercial entity. Good faith acquisition of personal information by an employee or agent of an individual or commercial entity for the purposes of the individual or commercial entity is not a breach of the security of the system if the personal information is not used for or is not subject to further unauthorized disclosure.
(b) "Commercial entity" means any private legal entity, whether for-profit or not-for-profit.
(c) "Notice" means:
(I) Written notice to the postal address listed in the records of the individual or commercial entity;
(II) Telephonic notice;
(III) Electronic notice, if a primary means of communication by the individual or commercial entity with a Colorado resident is by electronic means or the notice provided is consistent with the provisions regarding electronic records and signatures set forth in 15 U.S.C. sec. 7001 et seq.; or
(IV) Substitute notice, if the individual or the commercial entity required to provide notice demonstrates that the cost of providing notice will exceed two hundred fifty thousand dollars, the affected class of persons to be notified exceeds two hundred fifty thousand Colorado residents, or the individual or the commercial entity does not have sufficient contact information to provide notice. Substitute notice consists of all of the following:
(A) E-mail notice if the individual or the commercial entity has e-mail addresses for the members of the affected class of Colorado residents;
(B) Conspicuous posting of the notice on the web site page of the individual or the commercial entity if the individual or the commercial entity maintains one; and
(C) Notification to major statewide media.
(d) (I) "Personal information'' means a Colorado resident's first name or first initial and last name in combination with any one or more of the following data elements that relate to the resident, when the data elements are not encrypted, redacted, or secured by any other method rendering the name or the element unreadable or unusable:
(A) Social security number;
(B) Driver's license number or identification card number;
(C) Account number or credit or debit card number, in combination with any required security code, access code, or password that would permit access to a resident's financial account.
(II) "Personal information'' does not include publicly available information that is lawfully made available to the general public from federal, state, or local government records or widely distributed media.
(2) Disclosure of breach. (a) An individual or a commercial entity that conducts business in Colorado and that owns or licenses computerized data that includes personal information about a resident of Colorado shall, when it becomes aware of a breach of the security of the system, conduct in good faith a prompt investigation to determine the likelihood that personal information has been or will be misused. The individual or the commercial entity shall give notice as soon as possible to the affected Colorado resident unless the investigation determines that the misuse of information about a Colorado resident has not occurred and is not reasonably likely to occur. Notice shall be made in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay, consistent with the legitimate needs of law enforcement and consistent with any measures necessary to determine the scope of the breach and to restore the reasonable integrity of the computerized data system.
(b) An individual or a commercial entity that maintains computerized data that includes personal information that the individual or the commercial entity does not own or license shall give notice to and cooperate with the owner or licensee of the information of any breach of the security of the system immediately following discovery of a breach, if misuse of personal information about a Colorado resident occurred or is likely to occur. Cooperation includes sharing with the owner or licensee information relevant to the breach; except that such cooperation shall not be deemed to require the disclosure of confidential business information or trade secrets.
(c) Notice required by this section may be delayed if a law enforcement agency determines that the notice will impede a criminal investigation and the law enforcement agency has notified the individual or commercial entity that conducts business in Colorado not to send notice required by this section. Notice required by this section shall be made in good faith, without unreasonable delay, and as soon as possible after the law enforcement agency determines that notification will no longer impede the investigation and has notified the individual or commercial entity that conducts business in Colorado that it is appropriate to send the notice required by this section.
(d) If an individual or commercial entity is required to notify more than one thousand Colorado residents of a breach of the security of the system pursuant to this section, the individual or commercial entity shall also notify, without unreasonable delay, all consumer reporting agencies that compile and maintain files on consumers on a nationwide basis, as defined by 15 U.S.C. sec. 1618a (p), of the anticipated date of the notification to the residents and the approximate number of residents who are to be notified. Nothing in this paragraph (d) shall be construed to require the individual or commercial entity to provide to the consumer reporting agency the names or other personal information of breach notice recipients. This paragraph (d) shall not apply to a person who is subject to title V of the federal "Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act", 15 U.S.C. sec. 6801 et seq.
(3) Procedures deemed in compliance with notice requirements. (a) Under this section, an individual or a commercial entity that maintains its own notification procedures as part of an information security policy for the treatment of personal information and whose procedures are otherwise consistent with the timing requirements of this section shall be deemed to be in compliance with the notice requirements of this section if the individual or the commercial entity notifies affected Colorado customers in accordance with its policies in the event of a breach of security of the system.
(b) An individual or a commercial entity that is regulated by state or federal law and that maintains procedures for a breach of the security of the system pursuant to the laws, rules, regulations, guidances, or guidelines established by its primary or functional state or federal regulator is deemed to be in compliance with this section.
(4) Violations. The attorney general may bring an action in law or equity to address violations of this section and for other relief that may be appropriate to ensure compliance with this section or to recover direct economic damages resulting from a violation, or both. The provisions of this section are not exclusive and do not relieve an individual or a commercial entity subject to this section from compliance with all other applicable provisions of law.
SECTION 2. Effective date - applicability. This act shall take effect September 1, 2006, and shall apply to breaches of the security of the system, as defined in section 6-1-716 (1) (a), Colorado Revised Statutes, occurring on or after said date.

Destination Nevada
Yes, it's true: Las Vegas is the #1 destination of choice for American couples planning a destination wedding!
Who says a destination wedding means a week on a beach with a sunset ceremony? For many American couples, it just isn't "I do" without an Elvis impersonator somewhere nearby!
If you are looking for a wedding weekend with non-stop fun, glitz, glamour, and entertainment, Las Vegas has all of that, and some of the world's most amazing and luxurious hotels. But there is more to this state than Las Vegas, including remarkable outdoor activities - skiing, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, hot springs dipping - historic sites, Native American culture, desert sunsets, and Lake Tahoe.
If you've always wanted an old-fashioned western wedding, look no further, Nevada is the heart of the "old west," and you'll find plenty of locations and décor to make your western fantasy wedding a reality.

MATT: After giving up an early goal in the first period, Cam Talbot settled down and was his steady self for the final 55 minutes. In fact, Talbot didn't allow the Senators much of anything, as he wasn't overly worked despite seeing 16 shots in the final period. Talbot doesn't allow many rebounds, so more often than not, you'll have to be beat him clean to have any success against him. There was a flurry in the third period where he did allow a rebound and Ottawa nearly capitalized, but that was about it in terms of secondary chances against the rookie netminder. With the win, Talbot has hit the 10-win mark and is now 6-0 in Saturday starts, which includes two shutouts. He's undefeated in Canada this season after posting wins in Montreal, Toronto and now Ottawa.
JIM: Talbot certainly did settle in after allowing a goal he admitted later he would like to have back. Of course his teammates had a lot to do with that, too, as the Rangers played a stifling defensive game, that is until the third period when Talbot faced 16 shots from a more desperate Sens team. However good Talbot was, I am going with Benoit Pouliot as my Unsung Hero. He played only 13:39 and did not record a shot on goal, but he set a real physical tone by taking the body on every shift, leading the Rangers with six hits. Plain and simple he did the dirty work Saturday and it did not go unnoticed by me. After the game Pouliot told me how he suffered a charley horse in his leg early on in the game, but never missed a shift even though he was still limping from the pain after the contest was over. He did not let that pain get in the way from being the most physical Ranger out there. Benoit Pouliot, most definitely my Rangers Unsung Hero on Saturday.

Cate Blanchett
The Great White Way's big night brought out all the glitz and glamor, as beauties such as Scarlett Johansson, "Glee's" Lea Michele, Cate Blanchett, Catherine Zeta-Jones and many more arrived to the 2010 Tony Awards red carpet.
Find out why Academy Award-winning actress Cate Blanchett, 40, is planning to wear a helmet on her upcoming New York production of "A Streetcar Named Desire."
Word from down under is that actress Cate Blanhett suffered a head injury after being hit by a prop during a stage performance in Australia on Wednesday.
During Wednesday's show, cast member Joel Edgerton threw a radio, as scripted, which hit Blanchett on the head. The Oscar-winner is currently starring as Blanche DuBois in The Sydney Theatre Company's "A Streetcar Named Desire."
An audience member tells the Sydney Morning Herald that "she had blood streaming down the back of her head and blood on the back of her neck."
"She acted for about another 30 seconds, then ran into what we thought was the next scene, but before we knew it the lights were turned on and we were told there were technical difficulties and everyone had to evacuate the Sydney Theatre Company," the witness adds.
The Sydney Theatre Company released a statement saying, ''Cate's fine. I've just spoken to her and she's fine.''
Cate Blanchett is up for a Golden Globe for her work in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," she's a Vanity Fair cover girl, and a mother of three to boot! Is the actress ready to add baby number four to her growing family?
In an interview with the magazine, Cate reveals that she isn't ruling out having more children with filmmaker husband Andrew Upton. "Who knows?" The actress told Vanity Fair. "Don't close those doors. The world is very overpopulated, but we do make nice ones. They all look like Andrew. To say he has dominant genes would be an understatement."
The Oscar winner and her hubby are proud parents of Dashiell John, 7, Roman Robert, 4 and Ignatius Martin, 8 months.
"Extra" spotted a blonde and buff Brad Pitt on a private beach in the Caribbean.
The beautiful beach was shut down just for Brad, as he shot scenes for his latest movie, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," with Cate Blanchett.
Meanwhile, as her daddy did what he does best, Baby Zahara was photographed under the watchful eye of a gigantic bodyguard nearby.
Brad Pitt fans went wild over the weekend, as the superstar made his first red carpet appearance in more than a year for "Babel."
Brad came straight to "Extra" to talk shop and gush about his family crop back home.
"Family life is beautiful, it's just the greatest," the hunky actor dished.
Pitt's powerhouse performance in "Babel," opposite co-star Cate Blanchett, is already generating Oscar talk for the star. But Brad confessed he doesn't need an Oscar to enrich his life.

The West Virginia offense abused what was supposed to be one of the best defenses in the country last weekend when LSU visited Morgantown.
LSU kept the running game in check, but WVU was able to put up more than 500 yards of total offense against the Tigers. 463 of those yards came through the air.
Give credit where credit is due, LSU forced four turnovers in the game. Those four turnovers proved to be a big key to victory for the Tigers.
WVU frequently got its offense into a rhythm and moved the ball down the field just to see those drives temporarily halted by apparent injuries to LSU players.
"We didn't play as fast as we wanted to," Quarterback Geno Smith said. "Part of that was LSU kind of faking injuries and doing things to slow down our tempo."
Only LSU players and possibly the coaches know whether or not any of the Tigers were actually faking injuries. It is one way to take some of the air out of an offense that is moving successfully at a fast pace.
"I actually heard their coach say to the ref that they were not getting enough time to set up or something like that," Outside Receiver Stedman Bailey stated. "I guess that was kind of a problem for them. I guess they started doing things of that nature. because they had at least about six guys get hurt, and for them to be so tough I do feel like they did that to slow us down."
"There were sometimes that (their coach) was saying go down now," Offensive Lineman Don Barclay said. "You see that in football and we can't let it affect our play."
There is not much the Mountaineers can do to combat an opponent faking injuries. Technically a referee can throw a flag if a player is taking a dive. It is uncommon and hardly ever thrown.
Head Coaches can and typically do submit film of certain plays they want to be reviewed to their conference office. Those plays deal with questionable calls so coaches can get more explanation and understand the interpretation of the rules from those plays. WVU Head Coach Dana Holgorsen said this is not something he can write about to the NCAA or the Big East.
Essentially, the Mountaineers hands are tied on the issue.
"That's a cheap way to do things," Smith said. "It happens. There is not really a rule against that so it is something that teams may do. It really doesn't hurt us because we have to move onto the next play, but we would love to keep the thing rolling and stay with that tempo."
"There is absolutely nothing we can do," Bailey said. "If somebody is hurt, that stops the game and will stop our tempo. All we can do is keep our heads on straight and once that is taken care of to keep the tempo going that we started."
LSU allegedly faked injuries to try and slow the WVU offense down. It is a tactic that may be used against the Mountaineers as the season continues.
"If somebody sees on film that was able to slow us down, then maybe," Bailey said. "That was something I never really saw before was guys falling all over the floor and pretending to be hurt. I don't know what the future holds, but I hope not."
The offense continues to take steps forward. Erasing turnovers will help take it to an even higher level of play. Rhythm and tempo are key for the Mountaineers to achieve success on offense. If a team cannot stop WVU with its play, perhaps it needs to rely on stopping the tempo to try and derail a particular drive. The only ways to slow down an offense that is moving are to call a timeout, have a play reviewed in the booth or fake an injury.
Let's hope the latter does not become more and more common against WVU as the season continues. Just play football!

Daniel Cormier
UFC president Dana White believes Daniel Cormier will drop down to the light heavyweight division following his UFC on Fox 7 fight with Frank Mir.
Cormier (11-0) is a former Olympic wrestler who made the transition into mixed martial arts in 2009. He's undefeated and won the 2011 Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix. He will make his UFC debut against former heavyweight titleholder Frank Mir at UFC on Fox 7: Henderson vs. Melendez on April 20 at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif., and it may be his last fight as a heavyweight.
"At 205, I think he'd be a beast. I want him whereever he wants to be. I just think that is where he's going to end up," said White following UFC on Fuel TV 7 on Feb. 16.
Cormier trains alongside UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez at the American Kickboxing Academy, and the two have said they will not fight one another. White cites the relationship with Velasquez as the reason he expects Cormier to drop weight classes.
"The relationship with Cain, he's Cain's wrestling coach. I think that's what they're going to do. I think they're going to have him go to 205."
More MMA
"I would not fight (Daniel Cormier)," Velasquez said on a recent episode of UFC Tonight. "He's my coach, teammate, and friend."
Cormier indicated following his last fight on Jan. 12 that he plans on cutting down to the 205-pound division and has his sights set on titleholder Jon Jones.
"I'm gonna let Jon defend his belt on April 27 and then I'm gonna kick his ass in the fall," said Cormier during his post-fight interview.
Jones welcomes the move, but is tired of hearing about it.
"You know, the guy is a tremendous athlete and I wish he would just do it and just stop talking about it," Jones said about Cormier dropping weight classes when recently speaking to UFC Tonight. "I am open to fighting the best guys in the world."

in most cases i think its stupid that team mates wont fight eachother because alot of the time the best fighters in the world in their weight class end up on the same team because of the simple fact they are best teams but with cormier being cains coach i think its acceptable. now jones and silva saying they wont fight because they are friends is just stupid they are not even on the same team.
They aren't in the same weight class either.
ya but anderson can easily go to 205 not that i think he should move up a weight class but if he runs out of competition i would eventually like to see him fight jones and the excuse that they are friends isnt good enough imo.
Exactly. Its the fight business. I'd fight my brother for $5. A job is a job.
I'd pay you 5 bucks to watch you fight someone. Why not.
Cormier has for some reason never been punched in the face or kicked fighters are so worried about being taken down that he has free reign with his own punches. Frank mir wont lay down if he does it will and should be his last fight I think it will be an upset. Mir by submission
Mir has been in the game so long and he's still young. He's so well rounded, his boxing is so crisp. This is actually a really good fight for both guys style wise.
Cormier is his wrestling coach, they're not just teammates. Yes, it'd be weird as hell fighting your wrestling coach.
That's the part they don't understand. They're not just teammates, that's his actual coach.
All the talk is about Cormier in Mir's guard.
When in fact, Mir gets owned standing, and cannot take Cormier down. Cormier wins this one.
Cormier will stay at HW and fight for the title if Big Foot beats Velaskes.
i love cormier to fight jones and as a fighter..but now toward the fight i hate his attitude i hate the guy, he's so OVERconfident..he needs to remember that he's going to fight former heavyweight champion and best submission heavyweight..Frank Mir.. he can't predict the future..

It's a dream come true for some: getting paid to shop. But you don't have to quit your day job to make this dream a reality. There are companies out there that will pay you shop in your free time.
But there's a sneaky little catch: you just need to sign up to be a mystery shopper.
Mystery shoppers are hired to evaluate their shopping experiences and give retailers and salespeople grades that the company then uses to improve its customer service.
It may include how long it takes to be greeted, speed of service, and cleanliness.
Who's hiring? Hotels and resorts, retail and grocery stores, and movie theaters, among others.
Visit Volition.com to browse through mystery shopping companies and access the site's mystery shopping bulletin board.
But beware of scams. Avoid any company that requires you to pay a fee or asks for money for anything. And avoid advertisements for shoppers in newspapers' help-wanted ads or unsolicited emails.

Breaking Your Kids' TV Addiction
Child-behavior guru Noel Janis-Norton tells you how to make your kids watch less TV.
1) Make sure that you and your partner agree on the new rule completely, so you can back each other up.
2) Tell your children about the new rule several days before you plan to implement it, and at a neutral time (dinner, bedtime, etc.). Clearly explain what the new rule is once and ONLY once. ("Starting next Monday, we're going to have a new rule about when you can watch television. The new rule is that there will be no TV before school. You can watch TV for a half hour in the afternoon after you've finished your homework.")
3) Ask your children repeat the new rule back to you. ("So: What's the new rule?") Follow up with more questions, until it is clear they understand. ("And what day will we start it? And when will you be able to watch TV? And for how long?") This is called a "talk-through," and it will maximize the likelihood of your children cooperating by jogging their memories about the expectations: While they explain it to you, they are creating a mental image of themselves following the new rule.
The talk-through also gives them the respect they deserve. They receive a fair warning, and you can empathize with how they feel about it. ("This new rule may make you feel angry or disappointed because you've been used to watching TV in the morning, and I know you love TV.") If they ask you why you're making this new rule, just remain calm and friendly and let them answer their own question. ("Good question. Why do you think Dad and I are making this new rule?") Kids always know the answers. If they say, "I don't know," just ask them to take a guess.
It's important that whenever you are changing rules, you have many "talk-throughs" with your children in advance, because it will reduce their resistance. Talk-throughs always mean asking, not telling. When you ask them and they tell you, they are the ones doing the thinking, so whatever it is they need to do will stick in their long-term memories.
Don't get drawn into arguments or start reasoning about the new rules. If they complain, you can respond and let them know that you care and are on their side. ("You're probably upset because this is a rule you don't like, and you wish you could still watch TV before school.") Once again, if they ask you why, just ask them to take a guess -- and praise them for knowing the answer (or any part of the answer). If they say, "You're doing it just to be mean," stay calm and don't rise to the bait. Just say something like, "I can see you're angry about it." They will get over their upset feelings sooner if you don't argue or reason with them. They will also learn that it doesn't work to try to get you to argue when they aren't getting the kind of response they want.
We are trying Noel Janis-Norton's system out tomorrow!
We just got rid of our dish and got netflix. Our son is allowed 2 hours a day total to watch tv and play video games. I make sure and do it in spurts throughout the day. When they are watching tv or playing games, that's my computer time also. When they aren't, then I'm not on the computer. It has helped all of us tremendously to do more things together as a family.
What's the matter with you ? Only two hours for tv AND video games ? There is absolutely nothing wrong with as much tv as you want. I watch tv from 2 pm to 7 am. That's 18 hours a day. I can fit in so much because I often watch a tv show on my computer while watching one on tv at the same time. Or I'll listen to the radio while playing a video game. Also, during the summer, I'll go in the pool for an hour or two. I don't see a problem because there isn't one. If it's winter, do you still expect your kids to go out and play ? Really ? You're right. It's much better that they roll around in and throw snow and get sick than sit inside all nice and warm watching tv for a few hours ? You've got a strange sense of how the world works, lady.
Events in the past may be roughly divided into those which probably never happened and those which do not matter.

Stomach fat problems usually begin to take place for girls around the time of or perhaps right after giving birth and also later on inside age group pre and post menopause. It appears to hit ladies whilst right now there hormone levels are usually altering; itâs a standard process of lifestyle or is it?

Rated 5 out of 5�by Brooke81 Excellent running shoe Excellent running shoe. Provides great support and very comfortable. August 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Kimmy Disappointed :( Started having really bad pain in my heels after running due to the fact that there is not enough cushioning in that area. Planning to order a pair of heel inserts and see if it would help. June 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Mo Elite Running Shoe I bought a pair if the Adrenaline GTS 14 for my 17 daughter who runs cross country/track and is going into her senior year in high school. Her previous shoe was the Adrenaline 13 and she wore out 2 pairs. She definitely notices a difference between the 14 vs the 13 in terms of better cushion and support. The Brooks Adrenaline shoe corrects her overpronation and was recommended by a running pro who evaluated her running stride and form a few years ago. August 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Di Love my Brooks I had pain in my legs and feet all the time, these brooks really took care of that! July 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by Reb Cute Not very comfy when you are in your feet all day. I have not used these as a running shoe July 20, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by Marie15 The product is comfortable My father died and I've been helping my sister get the house ready to sell. Anyway I havent broke the shoes in completely. They seem to be comfortable. They were the only black ones I could find then in my size. They are not very attractive at all. Next time I won't buy unless I see them at the store first. Thanks. June 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by 1stmarathon Brooks kept me going Trying new running shoes are always a gamble in my experience. I decided to try these on recommendation of others. I needed new shoes and these did a good job of breaking in and getting me through my marathon a few weeks later. I feel like the heel area is a little unforgiving. I'm not sure if that is because they still weren't totally broken in or they are stiffer in that area than my old shoes. My legs were much happier with new shoes! June 6, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by adj131 Not the same as adrenaline gts 12 Replaced my adrenaline 12 with the 14 version. After having them a week, I am returning them.. Even though the weight is the same, it feels like I'm carrying around a ton of weight. It made my knees hurt and the toe box was too tight. Also had sporadic ankle pain as well as overall muscle pain/discomfort. Not a fan of the new laces either, but I would have overlooked that if the shoe had fitted like the gts 12. I wish I could still buy another gts 12 but no longer available. Recommend using them for your intended use a couple of times before making your final decision to keep or return. I have flat feet and I use them to walk 15-20 miles per week. In the first 2 miles I already knew that they were not for my feet, still I did a total of 8 miles before deciding to return. June 4, 2014
