Passing of the torch: Packers are no longer elite
- 49ers loaded with talent%2C and it showed in divisional playoff game
- San Francisco%27s offense%2C not vaunted defense%2C was catalyst to victory
- Packers have long offseason ahead of them after early playoff exit
SAN FRANCISCO — The Green Bay Packers didn't just suffer a beatdown at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday night in their NFC divisional playoff game.
Besides witnessing a resounding 45-31 victory by the 49ers, what we saw was the official passing of the torch.
The Packers' reign as one of the elite teams in the NFC is over. It has become clear the 49ers have overtaken the Packers by a wide margin. And Aaron Rodgers no longer is the most dangerous and feared player in the league.
RECAP:Kaepernick, 49ers thrash Packers
That description now belongs to 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who dominated the Packers with an NFL playoff-record 181 yards rushing by a quarterback. But Kaepernick is more than a one-trick pony. He also displayed pin-point passing ability in throwing for 263 yards and two touchdowns.
Kaepernick spotted the Packers a 7-0 lead with his only mistake of the game, a pick-six that Sam Shields returned 52 yards for a touchdown. But that only delayed the inevitable 49ers' domination.
SUH:Packers fail 'Football 101'
The 49ers are loaded with talent, including six first-team All-Pro players, and it showed in this playoff mismatch. The only surprise was that it was the 49ers' offense, not its vaunted defense, that was the catalyst for their big victory.
The Packers defense simply couldn't stop Kaepernick, either on the ground or through the air.
"Obviously it was very frustrating," Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk said. "We just didn't have an answer for him. … We couldn't find a way to stop it."
It marks the second consecutive season the Packers were beaten soundly in the divisional round of the playoffs. Last year, they fell hard 37-20 against the New York Giants, who went on to win the Super Bowl.
"Now we have to go home, our season is over," safety Morgan Burnett said. "It's tough. The only thing we can do is accept it like men and just try to bounce back and come back next year."
But in order to do that, the Packers will have to find a way to make up considerable ground on the 49ers.
"We didn't have any plans of going home this early," Burnett said. "It's a humbling experience. The only thing you can do is grow from it as a man and just get better."
The Packers should be thankful they trailed only 24-21 at halftime. The 49ers held a commanding 313 to 152 edge in total yards and 21:47 to 8:13 advantage in time of possession. By game's end, the 49ers had racked up an astounding 579 total yards.
"It's always frustrating when you let a quarterback be able to have that much production to help his team win," linebacker Erik Walden said. "You've got to give them credit. They were the better team today. You just take your hats off to them."
The 49ers were also the better team the last time these teams met, in Week 1, when San Francisco claimed a 30-22 victory at Lambeau Field.
"This year, evidently, make no excuses about losing, they beat us twice," nose tackle B.J. Raji said. "Well-earned wins. We didn't perform well enough on both occasions, but that's behind us now, it's going to be painful for a couple weeks."
The Packers will have an entire offseason to ponder another early playoff ouster.
"It's tough," Raji said. "We play for the Packers. We have one goal, and that's to play for the Super Bowl. We don't lose often. When we lose, especially like this, it's painful. But that's life. All you can do is come back next year and try to reach our goal again."
With the 49ers standing in their way, that will be a major challenge.

Korean Film Council partners with UH Manoa Academy for Creative Media for 2nd Filmmakers Development LabUniversity of Hawaiʻi
Academy for Creative Media
Sun-young Moon, (323) 932-7033
National Korean Film Council
The National Korean Film Council (KOFIC) will again partner with the Academy for Creative Media (ACM) at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa for its second international Filmmaker's Development Lab August 26-September 2 in Makaha. This year's lab includes a $40,000 award for the top script.
Five emerging filmmakers of Korean descent have been selected to become fellows from their submitted scripts through an international competition. The fellows will be matched with individual mentors drawn from the film industry in Korea and the United States and spend a week in Makaha in one-on-one sessions developing their scripts through the Lab. The fellows will present their projects to producers, financiers and production companies at the Independent Feature Film Market in New York in September, and at the Pusan International Film Festival in Korea, in October.
Lab mentors also plan to present an ACM Master Class on the Korean Film Industry which will be free and open to the public on August 31 at 2:30 p.m. in Crawford Hall on the Mānoa Campus. In addition, they will be visiting with the Waianae High School Seariders Production Program, ACM's primary partner in media education development in island schools.
"Following the tremendous success of last year's inaugural Filmmaker's Development Lab, all of us at ACM are thrilled and honored to continue our association with the Korean Film Council and this year's Filmmaker's Development Lab," said Chris Lee, ACM director. "We look forward to hosting old friends and making new ones this year, as we pursue this opportunity to discover and nurture emerging Korean filmmakers from around the world."
The five fellows named to the 2007 Filmmakers Development Lab have already produced films that have won multiple awards at festivals and have been nationally televised. They include: Nathan Adolfson, Christina Choe, Jeyun Choi, Samuel Kiehoon Lee and Gene Rhee.
Mentors for the 2007 lab include Korean producers Jonathan Kim ("Silmido," "Lies") and Jooick Lee ("Battle of Wits," "Seven Swords,"); U.S. Producer Peggy Rajski ("Home for the Holidays," The Grifters,"); talent agency head Brant Rose; and American Film Institute Senior Lecturer Barry Sabbath. Kim and Sabbath are returning mentors from the first Filmmaker's Development Lab.
KOFIC Chair An Cheong Sook said, "We are pleased to support and organize this second Lab to build on the success and experience of last year's effort. As a demonstration of our strong support of the Lab, and our wish to help filmmakers of Korean descent, we will also be awarding $40,000 to the most meritorious Lab script or scripts later this year."
The Lab and its activities are wholly funded by KOFIC, and held in partnership with ACM, the Independent Film Project in New York, and the Center for Asian American Media in San Francisco.
Additional information on the 2007 Filmmaker's Development Lab is available online at http://fdl.kofic.or.kr. For more information on the Academy for Creative Media, visit www.hawaii.edu/acm.

Emmy Best Dressed: Evan Rachel Wood
Sasha was right. After I finally had a full length look at it, she was totally right. Evan Rachel Wood's black beaded amazingness was indeed the best of the night.
I'm not saying it could have stood up to the bests of other award nights because, let's be honest, last night was so much, too much, medium, more medium than we've seen in a long time. But ERW's Elie Saab was a welcome alternative to all that TV red, and certainly a lot more exciting than those neutral nudes, and infinitely more interesting than the ones who played it super safe. Yes, I'm talking to you Rashida Jones. Love her, hated the pink SO much.
Evan's short hair seems to have opened up so many new style flavours and possibilities. Am very much enjoying her ride. Press tour for The Ides of March is coming up soon. There's a lot to look forward to.

Now it's being reported that before the selection was made, the Democratic boss in the State Senate, John Sampson, handed over internal documents to former State Senator Carl Andrews, who was working as a lobbyist for AEG. After getting a peek at the leaked documents, AEG decided it might be a good idea to up their bid, and the group was ultimately selected.
Because the process was so unseemly and stunk to high heaven, AEG eventually lost the contract and the project is now out to bid in a more stringent process, and a new operator is expected to be selected this summer.
And because the process that selected AEG was so messed up, casual, and involved so many people with little oversight, it's unlikely that Governor David Paterson or Sampson or anybody else involved in the whole muddy mess will have to face criminal charges or even much scrutiny and criticism.
Unless you ask Anthony Como!
Como jumped on the new revelation about the leak to lash out at State Senator Joseph Addabbo, Jr., who he will be challenging come November. Addabbo's district, the one Como hopes to represent, is home to Aqueduct Racetrack, and even though Addabbo's name was never connected to the leaked reports and the whole disorderly process to pick a bidder started long before he took office, it didn't stop Como from implicating him in a statement he sent out last week.
Como charges that Addabbo "abandoned us while Albany dishonesty hits right here in Queens" and that he isn't "standing up" for the residents of the borough. Of course, Como's comments are simply a candidate seizing at the opportunity to lash out at an incumbent, as any good candidate is wont to do. However, it does highlight an interesting facet of this race.
A bidder to run the Aqueduct racino should be selected this summer, months before the election. If that process goes smoothly and people are happy with the selection and the proposal, that could be a big boost for Addabbo, who can step up and say that he helped fix a flawed project and in the end the community benefitted.
If, on the other hand, Albany manages to screw this up like they have the tendency to do, it could prove disastrous for Addabbo even if he had very little input, and Como will no doubt bring up the issue at every single town hall, civic meeting, and debate in the weeks leading up to the election.
The forthcoming Aqueduct decision could actually prove to be the biggest factor in the race between Como and Addabbo.

Synthetic biology gets reborn as an aesthetic dream
SYNTHETIC biology is not like other sciences. At its first big conference, held just 10 years ago at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the startling initial premise was that life is simply too complicated for biotechnologists to easily modify and that it would be better if engineers rebuilt life from scratch so the created organisms did exactly what was required.
The youthful enthusiasm that powered the field, and brought together engineers, biologists, computer scientists, physicists and biohackers, persists today. There have been a few major achievements, most notably last month's creation of a computer-designed yeast chromosome. And before that, the creation of the first synthetic cell. Continue reading

Benghazi suspect in federal law enforcement hands
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A Libyan militant charged in the 2012 Benghazi attacks was in federal law enforcement custody, the U.S. attorney's office said Saturday. Security at the city's federal courthouse was heightened.
Spokesman William Miller declined further immediate comment regarding Ahmed Abu Khattala, who faces criminal charges in the deaths of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans from the attack on Sept. 11, 2012.
U.S. special forces captured Abu Khattala in Libya two weeks ago, marking the first breakthrough in the investigation of the Benghazi attacks.
A criminal complaint filed last year was unsealed after his capture.
U.S. officials had been questioning Abu Khattala aboard a Navy amphibious transport dock ship that brought him to the United States.
Abu Khattala, who charged with terrorism-related crimes, may face a judge as soon as Saturday for an initial court appearance at which the government would outline the charges against him. He almost certainly would remain in detention while the Justice Department sought a federal grand jury indictment against him.
The prosecution will be a further test of the Obama administration's commitment to try suspected terrorists in the American criminal justice system even as Republicans in Congress call for Abu Khatallah and others to be held at the U.S. detention facility in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
A newly unsealed criminal complaint accuses Abu Khattala of killing a person during an attack on a federal facility, a crime punishable by death; providing federal support to terrorists resulting in death; and using a firearm in a crime of violence. U.S. authorities have said they are looking to identify and capture additional co-conspirators.
The violence on the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon quickly became a political flashpoint. Republicans accused the White House, as the 2012 presidential election neared, of intentionally misleading the public about what prompted the attacks. The White House accused Republicans of politicizing a national tragedy.
Abu Khattala, a prominent figure in Benghazi's circles of extremists who was popular among young radicals, acknowledged in an interview with The Associated Press in January that he was present during the storming of the U.S. mission in Benghazi. But he denied involvement in the attack, saying he was trying to organize a rescue of trapped people.
In the attack, gunmen fired rocket-propelled grenades and stormed the mission, with many waving the black banners of Ansar al-Shariah, a powerful Islamic militia.
The compound's main building was set ablaze. Ambassador Chris Stevens suffocated to death inside and another American was shot dead. Later in the evening, gunmen attacked and shelled a safe house, killing two more Americans.
At the time, several witnesses said they saw Abu Khattala directing fighters at the site.
No evidence has emerged that Abu Khattala was involved in the later attack on the safe house.
Abu Khattala is one of just a few cases in which the administration has captured a suspected terrorist overseas and interrogated him for intelligence purposes before bringing him to federal court to face charges.
Those cases include Osama bin Laden's son-in-law, Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, who was arrested in Jordan in March 2013 and turned over to U.S. agents. A jury in New York City convicted him in March of conspiring to kill Americans.

About Cyprus
Cyprus is an island rich in history and culture, and full of wonderful experiences just waiting to be enjoyed, including customs and places that are unique and special to the island.
Nicosia is the capital; it is divided by "The Green Line" into two parts, similar to the way Berlin was once divided. Access between the two parts of Cyprus has often been restricted but in recent years has been generally problem-free. Many visitors go to Larnaca, the major port located on the southeast coast of the island.
Cyprus welcomes an ever-increasing number of medical tourists each year, many of which travel for Maxillofacial Surgery procedures. Cyprus is fast becoming a popular choice for medical tourism, thanks to a large array of modern private hospitals and clinics; excellent facilities with state-of-the-art equipment, and experienced and highly-qualified doctors and medical staff - largely trained in Europe or the USA. As such, it offers a one-stop service from treatment to recuperation.

I will make sure that, the next time I am sourcing a vehicle, Newbury Leasing will be considered.
BCH Customer, Warrington
The car is fantastic and the deal I got was superb. (no other lease firm came close)
One of the biggest pluses is how economical the car is to run.
Although it is a 2.2 engine my fuel bill has dropped from £65 a week to £35 which is a credit to Mercedes
and gives me a great saving every week.
The car is my pride and joy.
Will contact you again in a few months when my wife will be looking - also recommened Newbury to my son
who is seriously looking at this type of deal as compared to buying outright.
Mr Saunders, PCH Customer, Stevenston

Mr Gardiner, PCH Customer, Hertfordshire
I have been communicating almost daily with Mark Hewitson and thanks to his professionalism ensured I got exactly the car and deal I was looking for at a price far cheaper than anyone else was quoting.
The new car is absolutely brilliant and I have had so many comments saying how sporty it looks. The interior is gorgeous and more importantly my wife loves it - she had only seen photographs on the internet but she raved about it when she drove it at the weekend.
She also commented on how professional Mark and Newbury had been and is going to contact Mark when she is due to change her own car in a few months.
After months of looking I made the correct choice in Newbury and the process from start to finish could not have went any smoother.
Thank you.
Mr Saunders, PCH Customer, Stevenst
I can't thank you enough for all your help & advice in picking a new car. The service was second to none & I'd highly recommend you to anyone looking to lease buy or sell. Absolute First class service when I was in need of a car in a bit of a hurry. I was struggling on what type of car to go for & told you of my requirements & you pulled out all the stops necessary. I'm absolutely loving driving round in my new Audi TT! Couldn't be happier.
Hayley McQueen, Personal Customer
My new Mazda turned up on time, and in good condition with only 9 miles on the clock - everything was as it should have been, and everything happened as it should have. So I was very pleased with the service.
Mrs G, Personal Customer, Kent
This was my first experience of negotiating a personal leasing contract and I must say I'm impressed with the information, service and advice I got from Mark Hewitson, who looked after me throughout the process.
All aspects of the process went very well from my initial review of your services via your website through to the management of the delivery of the vehicle. I have already passed your website link on to a number of my colleagues who are also interested in personal leasing options.
Mr B, Personal Customer, Swindon
Many thanks. Great service.
Mr L, Business Customer, Lancashire
We now have the car on the road with its driver very happy saying it was worth the wait, the service received from Newbury was 1st class and made easy by your man Al we would certainly be back when we next require a leased vehicle.

Everything was excellent! I have already gave some feedback to Mark and Al, both were so easy to deal with, always happy to answer questions. This was my first time leasing and was so impressed with how easy it is and will definately be recomending your company to friends and family who are also interested in leasing now that i have raved about how easy it is :)

Miss C, Personal Customer, Hampshire
Hi Al
Just to let you know car arrived safely.
Thank you very much for your kind help & hard work on this. You could not have done a better job or have been more helpful.
Mr M, Financial Services, London
I must say how grateful I am to the efforts put in by Mark Hewitson to secure 2 Vehicles( 1 x Nissan Juke & 1 Audi A5). His helpfulness and patience during the process was excellent and the advise he gave was second to none. Having been through the procurement of many vehicles for our business I can say without doubt this was the best experience of them all and when I need to source more vehicles which we will need to do in the near future I will be straight back to Newbury Leasing.
I will gladly stand reference to any potential customer who may be considering using Newbury Leasing.

The new car is fantastic.
I only have very positive feedback for the service provided to me.
Newbury have been very professional and, most importantly, honest with me when I have arranged the contract hire. Everything is up front in black and white, with no hidden charges or extras afterwards.
Any documentation sent is clear and concise, which makes transactions much easier and quicker.
This is the second car I have leased through Newbury and have been extremely pleased, I regularly recommend Newbury to all my friends and peers.
Dental Practice, Accrington
Al, The car's great, more relevant to you, the service you provided was exceptionally good.
Well done and thanks for a great service.
Mr D, Personal Customer, Kent
My car has arrived and I love it! I can honestly say the service I received from start to finish was second to none, in particular from the very start with Mark Hewitson, who took the time to answer all my queries in relation to what is a new experience for me.
I would have no hesitation in recommending you should the occasion arise.
Mrs P, Personal Customer, Manchester
I was very pleased with the service provided by Mr. Hewitson. He was very helpful every step of the way. In four years time when this lease expires Newbury Leasing will be my first port of call for the new lease.
Mr T, Personal Customer, London
A bit of feedback for you...
The service we received from Newbury Leasing was first class, I cannot fault it!
I initially had quotes from a number of different companies, not only were Newbury Leasing cheapest on most occasions but Mark always replied quickly & kept us up to date with progress from the initial enquiry to arranging delivery. The paperwork was also very quick and easy to complete; it was refreshing to deal with such an efficient company & we will definitely be coming back to you in 3 years time!
Mr N, Personal Customer, Kent
Thank you organising the car it is brilliant, I think you have been very helpful, easy to communicate with and it's been a pleasure to do business with.

The new Nissan is great, a big thank you to Mark Hewitson for his help and through keeping me informed all through the process.
Oil Technology Firm, West Midlands
Your service was excellent, all my questions and enquiries were answered same day by Amy and Mark, there was no telephone chasing up of quotes just a quick email which I liked.
The car is great and delivered on my preferred date, overall I felt the service could have not gone much better.
Mr S, Personal Customer, Birmingham
The service I received from Mark at Newbury Leasing was fantastic and I would be more than happy to recommend them in the future.
Mr L, Personal Customer, Daventry
Great service. Mark went the extra mile to help us secure this vehicle which actually arrived 3 weeks earlier than scheduled.
Mr A, Personal Customer, Surrey
Thanks very much for organising my new C350 Mercedes..,
I was notified of every step and it all went well from pricing through to delivery..,
Would be pleased to recommend Newbury Leasing and will be in contact for my next vehicle
Mr G, Personal Customer, Essex
I am happy to provide feedback on your service. It was excellent despite the problems faced with VW's own delays in delivering the vehicle. An estimated 6 weeks turned into a 6 month wait but throughout this time I was kept fully updated by both Holly Pilling and, when she left to go on maternity leave, Mark Hewitson. Both kept their promises with regards to chasing the matter up and keeping me informed. I could not have asked for more.
I have recommended your company to one of my colleagues who, I understand, is also keen to use your services.
Should anybody else I know be interested in leasing a vehicle I shall certainly refer them to your goodselves.
Mr L, Personal Customer, Warrington
I have even greater praise for Newbury Leasing. I only started dealing with Newbury when the deal that I thought I had agreed with the local Ford fleet dealers fell through at a fairly late stage in the proceedings and Newbury just came up as on of the options when I searched the internet. But from the word go I was very impressed with the Newbury service - quotes were coming back within the hour (instead of the several days that I had experienced before) - many thanks to Amy here! The order was completed painlessly, the paperwork that I needed to complete was made totally idiot proof and I was kept in the picture throughout as to likely delivery dates (and the cost was £20 p.m. lower than Fords had quoted me!).
Even a late glitch concerning the payment of the initial payment was sorted out thaks to Mark's efforts.
Overall I have been absolutely delighted with the service that I have received from Newbury and I have already recommended you to colleagues.
Mr H, Personal Customer, Southampton
Very good service and Mark Hewitson is a credit to Newbury leasing. This is the second vehicle I have had from Newbury and would use you again and also recommend you to others.
Parking Services Company, Herts
I found Mark Hewitson extremely helpful, friendly and delivered an excellent service.
Overall Newbury Leasing offered an extremely cost effective and excellent service and I would have no hesitation in recommending the company to any individual or company.
Mr B, Personal Customer, Boston Star
The car is fantastic and Mark Hewitson provided a very professional service.
Thank you
Barrister, Brighton
Newbury Leasing were excellent and Mark Hewitson particularly made this process really enjoyable! Every time we changed our minds on cars, contract length, or whether or not we could do it, he was ever patient and always really fast at providing responses. And now the cars are both here and we love them both!
Thanks Newbury

Customer service in the UK generally leaves a lot to be desired but I can honestly say you have been fantastic from day one.
Mark Hewitson was a pleasure to deal with and I would definitely recommend your company to colleagues, friends and family.

TV Production Company, Manchester
You did very well, I was impressed with the service that you give and I would definitely use your company again and recommend you to others. You were good to deal with on the telephone and I believe that you pulled out all the stops when necessary.
It is the first time that I have leased a car and was a little apprehensive, you provided the necessary reassurances throughout the process and kept me informed of developments throughout, I value this communication aspect of your service highly.
Mr R, Personal Customer, Hull
Hello Holly
I have had my Seat a week now.
Really like the car, it handles well and is a comfortable drive. It is just what I required.
I was really pleased with the way you kept me informed of what was happening regarding the car and the chasing you did on my behalf.
Speak to you in 3 years!
Mr S, Personal Customer, Leominster
Hello Holly,
I think it's only fair to send you my thanks for such a wonderful transaction. My Mercedes ML arrived this morning and I'm over the moon. Not only was the price far cheaper than any of the quotes I got elsewhere, but your customer service was first class. I will definitely be using you again in the future and I'll be sure to tell all of my friends about you.
Mr R, Personal Customer, Radcliffe
I just wanted to send you a quick email to thank you for all of your hard work. Your service from start to finish was brilliant. You kept us informed every step of the way, and we are delighted with our brand new Mercedes E Class. Thank you once again!
Accident Repair Co. , Manchester
I must congratulate your company on a very professional service and I was most impressed with the people who were involved in the process. I will certainly recommend you to my friends and colleagues.
Engineering Consultancy Company, Hamps
I found the whole process dealing with Newbury Leasing incredibly easy and I thought that Mark Hewitson was particularly helpful. I found you through the ContractHireandLeasing.com website and I have to say that your responses were far far quicker and better than any of the other companies that I made enquiries with � some companies didn't even respond to my enquiries.
When the car arrived yesterday it was difficult to believe that it had been so incredibly straight forward.
Mr S, Personal Customer, Tyne & Wear
The car's great thanks. Thats some engine.
Everything went very smoothly and I'd recommend you to anyone looking for a new car (in fact I already have).
Thanks for your help. I'll call you again in about a year to replace our SLK.

I just heard an ad that says it takes 15 days to get a Refund Anticipation Check from H+T Block (granted it was a Jackson Hewitt ad).
If you submit the return electronically, as H+R will, and choose Direct Deposit you should get your refund in 15 days or earlier.
Why would anyone in their right mind pay Henry and Richard a ridiculous fee to give them a check when the IRS will have the money in their account in the same amount of time or sooner absolutely free?
But then again – why would anyone in their right mind go to Henry and Richard to have their return prepared in the first place?

All News Releases By Date
EPA Awards over $900,000 to TU to Research Impacts of Climate Change in Tribal Areas
Release Date: 07/23/2014
Contact Information: Joe Hubbard or Jennah Durant at 214-665-2200 or email@example.com
DALLAS – (July 23, 2014) Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the University of Tulsa (TU) are seeking new ways to protect tribal communities. EPA awarded $919,988 to TU to study methods to improve indoor air quality and reduce asthma triggers in schools.
"EPA is pleased to be working with University of Tulsa to help find new and innovative ways to improve air quality on tribal communities," said Regional Administrator Ron Curry. "This effort gives us an opportunity to improve indoor air quality by increasing awareness of environmental health risks."
Air quality information from the Cherokee Nation of northeast Oklahoma, the Nez Perce Tribe Reservation and surrounding area of west central Idaho, and the Navajo Nation in the Shiprock, New Mexico region will be used to study the health impacts of climate change and indoor air pollution on tribal communities. Tribal nations rely on many natural resources to maintain traditional diets, customs, and languages. The research will identify the impacts of pollution and climate change, and influence decisions to reduce health risks.
"We're trying to develop a deeper understanding of the interactions in and between school and home environments pertaining to the health of children," said Richard Shaughnessy, Founder and Director of Research for TU's Indoor Air Program. "Attention to both settings will help us draft a more complete profile of the air quality tribal children are exposed to throughout the day."
Since 2000, EPA has funded 10 research projects focused on tribal communities through the Science to Achieve Results Tribal Environmental Health grants. The tribal research grants have helped reform local policies and provided communities with tools to inform them about the potential dangers.
EPA regularly works with organizations to reduce the environmental health risks of indoor air contaminants such as radon and asthma triggers. Indoor air pollutants in homes, buildings, and schools can negatively impact the health of occupants. Some pollutants cause health problems such as sore eyes, burning in the nose and throat, headaches or fatigue. Others can cause or worsen allergies, respiratory illnesses (such as asthma) or even cancer (from radon gas).

Now that I have chosen my Asset Allocation, I want to implement it and be fully invested in the stock and bond market by 1/31. This might be tricky, as I am moving some assets away from E*Trade and according to the paperwork it can take up to 4-6 weeks. But I should be able to do the rest by the end of January.
As a side note, I am vacationing to warmer weather for the next week, and may or may not have internet access. I am bringing along Common Sense on Mutual Funds: New Imperatives for the Intelligent Investor by John Bogle, as well as some Vanguard prospectuses for the plane ride. Happy New Year!

One Direction's Louis Tomlinson Builds Panic Room in House
When you are a member of the hottest boy band working today, with millions of shrieking female fans clamoring for a piece of you, precautions are necessary.
That's just what One Direction cutie Louis Tomlinson has done. The singer has installed a panic room in his house to protect his girlfriend, Eleanor Calder.
The Sun reports that LT spent $22,000 on the protective bunker. A source said, "Louis loves the fans and isn't overwhelmed with paranoia. He's just a realist about the dangers of being in the spotlight."
Better safe than sorry…

NYX's new line of liquid foundation is formulated from HD photogenic synthesis. When light hits skin, the diffusing effect of the foundation reflects the light to make skin appear smooth and reduce the appearance of pores. The foundation covers skin flawlessly with tri-peptides infused to promote collagen generation, reduce wrinkles and rejuvenate skin. The HD Studio Foundation is ideal for everyday use, professional shoots and shows under bright lights.
what i hate:
Smashbox Photofinish light primer
NYX HD liquid foundation in Nude + Soft Beige
Shu Uemura loose powder
NYX HD blush in Georgia Peach
NYX lipcreme in Antwerp
overall, i love this foundation. IMHO, it works like MUFE HD foundation but cheaper. i use this on top of my current HG sunblock + primer (which i'll be posting soon) and it would stay put the whole day. so yeah, i'll definitely buy this...actually, i already ordered a couple of shades for me and my clients. ^_^
for those with oily skins, apply a primer beneath
apply a thin layer and build coverage as needed
as with other liquid foundations, top this with a setting powder to help keep it in place. i suggest using a setting powder and not a powder foundation to avoid looking cakey. this foundation has good coverage and you don't really need another "heavy" layer of powder on top.
personally, i prefer using a brush for more even application
shake the bottle before using
i love anything HD..who wouldn't want to look flawless in pictures, anyway!?
thanks to Sol for letting me try this foundation. i had to beg for her to let me sample (and empty) the testers. i am seriously considering not to return them actually. hahaha!

This blog has been retired. For the foreseeable future, I will maintain the content here as is.
Check out my current blog(s).
Courtesy of ZDNet
Much ado has been made in the recent months about the impending death of <insert name of MS UI stack here>. This week, at BUILD, Microsoft has finally stepped up and shown us what their view of the future is. Note that, in their architecture diagram, the current "desktop" technologies are represented as a peer. Included in the right side is Windows Forms, which of any .NET technology has long been exaggerated as dead; and yet it is still alive.
The point is, despite all the "future is Metro" talk by other analysts (e.g., Mary Jo herself), the fact remains that these are peer technologies, and Microsoft is not "killing" anything in the right side. In fact, there is no such intent expressed implicitly or explicitly.
That's not to say, of course, that nothing has changed. That's not to say that we can or should ignore Metro/WinRT (duh!). But there seems to be this common knee jerk reaction when a new technology is released to say that the current ones are now dead or somehow not worth investing in further. That reaction just doesn't reflect reality.
As impressed and (mostly) happy as I am about the direction expressed in the Win8 stack, we need to keep in mind that we are still in the early stages, still in gestation. The baby isn't even born yet, and once it is born, it will take time to grow up and mature. In the meantime, we have these mature, stable, currently released technologies that are great to build on.
I think it's great that Microsoft has released this stuff early. I like that about them better than other tech vendors. Although they've been more tightlipped about this than any other tech they've released, the fact remains we have plenty of time to plan, prepare, design, prototype, explore, and ultimately build for the new stack. In the meantime, we can still safely invest in the current technologies.
The future is uncertain. That is the nature of the future. Devs need to quit unrealistically asking Microsoft to guarantee them the future of technology. We know that it would be bad business for Microsoft to kill off these current technologies; so bad, we should feel it as a positive guarantee that they are here to stay for any future that we should be currently planning for. We will always have legacy. Someday, the Win8 stack will, I assure you, be legacy.
The things that remain constant are:
Everything else is just a bunch of unnecessary worry and hullaballoo.
In writing this first and hopefully last political entry, I hope to help others who struggle with the question "How should I vote?" or "How do I choose whom to vote for?" If nothing else, I hope it will contribute more depth to the often polemical and superficial discussion that is our political milieu.
First off, let me say that sometimes I wish I could be a Democrat. Democrats have a great story. They work for the average Joe. They want to make sure that the poor are taken care of. They want social justice. That's admirable; that's something I can get behind.
For my part, I consider it part of my moral obligation to help the poor and those less fortunate. As a Catholic (or even just a Christian for that matter), it is pretty clear that caring for the poor is a basic moral principle for us, and what this means has been elaborated on and acted on throughout our two thousand year history. It has taken different forms as the cultural, political, and religious landscape has changed, but it was and remains a core concern for the devout Christian.
By the same token, it's also my Catholic/Christian philosophy that informs how I think about other social and political issues, including those far more fundamental, those that are the logical source of an active care for the less fortunate
You see there are those, both antagonistic and sympathetic, who suggest that a concern for others, a care for the less fortunate, should trump these more fundamental concerns. For some, this argument is purely rhetorical, but there are surely those who honestly believe in this perspective. Some of these people are close to me, and I don't doubt their sincerity.
The problem is, I think, that there is a failure to understand the connection between these more fundamental issues and governments' role in them, to understand the pragmatic importance of these issues, or, in some cases, to even properly value them. The fundamental issues I am referring to are those of life, first, and family, second.
Let's begin with the first principle of life. Even our founding fathers saw the primacy and importance of this topic. Our Declaration of Independence begins with what they claim are self-evident truths, a list of unalienable rights, the first of which is the right to life. These are there to introduce the primary principles for which government is established and, in particular, our own here in these United States.
It doesn't take a religious perspective to appreciate the fundamental importance of life, and it is not a logical jump to understand that government, which should be directed toward the common (i.e., shared, social) good, should set as its number one goal to protect the lives of its citizens--all of them, especially those who cannot, for whatever reason, protect their own lives.
It is from this fundamental principle of life that the other principles and rights both logically and practically flow. And therefore there is an implicit subjugation of these other rights (such as liberty and the pursuit of happiness) to the right of life. It follows then that a government can, in order to ensure the most fundamental right to life, restrict these others. I would suggest that it also follows that if a government inverts this order, it is inherently disordered and consequently needs to be corrected.
For if a government cannot duly ensure the right to life, all of these other rights and, certainly, privileges are in no uncertain jeopardy. We must protect life first and foremost and, if necessary, at the cost of other admirable ideals such as liberty (or "choice" as some put it) as well as concern for the economic welfare that enables the pursuit of happiness (or property, as John Locke would have it).
This is why I think that life issues must always trump economic issues (including care for the poor). If we don't get life right, we have to seriously question both our priorities and maybe even our ability to properly think about care for the less fortunate.
Similarly, we have to vote for candidates who have these priorities straight, those who understand the primordial and fundamental importance of life and government's principle obligation to protect it in all forms, from conception through to its natural end. Because if they don't then they--just like a government that does not prioritize life over liberty and other rights and privileges--are unfortunately and seriously disordered. However well intentioned they may be, we must seriously question their judgment and their ability to govern wisely if they do not understand the government's priority to protect life.
Let us turn now to our second fundamental issue--the family. It is often said that the family is the fundamental building block of society. This is true both in terms of societal stability but also in terms of the fundamental concerns of the perpetuation of a society. It is through the family that the future members of society come, and, therefore, it is through the family that the future of the society itself is perpetuated.
Any human society that values itself will inherently value its own perpetuation; it is essentially societal self-preservation that we are talking about. From our earliest human origins, the family has been the normative means for the perpetuation of society in all its forms. It is the most tried and true (and logical) way for this self-preservation to occur.
Similarly, the normative form of the family has been that of a man and woman. The simplest reason for this is, if for no other reason, due to our biological situation, our needing male and female to engender new lives. And given the very real (even biological) personal investment in the creation of these new lives, it follows naturally that those who engender them will normally be those who care for and raise them. This is of course ignoring the psychological and, dare I say, metaphysical factors that inform us that the biological parents should normally be the ones who take on the roles of mother and father.
(I hate to seem overly simplistic here, but we are talking about fundamental human principles. It seems to me that so many of us must take them for granted, so I think it is worth verbalizing them to help us think about this stuff more clearly.)
Any society worth its salt will do what it can to strengthen the normative family because it is, simply put, in the society's best interests to do so. And we see this played out in those governments (like our own) that do create formal structures to support it, such as marriage and the many privileges given to spouses and parents in our laws. These privileges (not rights!) are there to support the normative family in hopes that it will further the perpetuation of the society and, by extension, our common good.
Supporting the normative family (like life, though secondary to it) is a fundamental issue for government. Supporting and reinforcing this primordial social unit through which the future of society is ensured should therefore supersede other concerns. And ensuring its elemental structure--a man and a woman having children and responsibly raising their children--must supersede concerns about economic welfare because in the same way that life logically precedes the exercise of other rights and privileges, so the structure of the fundamental family unit logically precedes concerns about other social conditions.
It is unfortunate that we have to make this priority explicit—because we should absolutely care about ensuring economic welfare—but this fundamental family unit structure is in question in our society today and is being pressed by many who recognize clearly the secondary concern of economic welfare. Sadly, we must first deal with this question and settle it correctly, in a way that ensures the fundamental structure of our society and consequently its perpetuation. Only then should we turn our attention to the very important concern of economic welfare.
Again, since the essential function of government is to secure the enduring, common good of the society it serves, and since any society that values itself will preserve itself by ensuring and protecting the normative family consisting of a man and a woman having and responsibly raising the future members of society, it follows that we should elect members of government who will likewise work to ensure and support this fundamental unit of society. Right now, while the nature of the family is in question in our society, we must more than ever work to elect those who share this urgent priority to finally settle this issue in a way that is in the long-term best interests of our society. We cannot redefine and dilute the elemental structure of the family, however well meaning we may be, without endangering the long-term good of our society.
Now, I started out by saying that there are times when I wish I could be a Democrat. I said this because they do have many admirable ideals, chief among which is care for the less fortunate. But the thing is, unlike ensuring that our government protects the fundamental principles of life and family, the impact of which can only most fully be realized through government, care for the poor can be (and most often is) attended by charitable works that are not governmental in nature.
In other words, you don't have to work through the government to care for the poor, but you do have to work through the government to ensure the right to life and the fundamental character of the family. Therefore, if we must, sadly, choose between a government that protects life and the family and one that is focused on economic good, it seems clear to me that we must opt for a the former.
The good news is that in doing so, we don't have to leave care for the less fortunate behind. In fact, I would suggest that a more effective and laudable approach would be for us to make personal, active investment in the care of the less fortunate. Give to charities. Volunteer in charitable works. Give to those who ask and even to those who do not. It is much more blessed and, indeed, enjoyable to choose to give than to be forced to give by your government. And if we all did it, we wouldn't need to try to make each other do so through the government.
So that's how I think about choosing whom to vote for. I hope that there are those who will find some help here, and if nothing else, I hope it will help those who are of a differing persuasion to see that despite the rhetoric, there are good reasons to make issues like abortion, euthanasia, marriage, and family deciding factors in deciding how to vote. These issues are fundamental and primary for society and government and will therefore have a much more profound and long lasting impact than other, albeit important, issues like foreign policy, economic policy, and national security. It's not a matter of laziness or simplemindedness; it is a matter of principles.
Peace be with you all.
--Mr. J. Ambrose Little, O.P.Given on the First Day of September, A.D. 2008
UPDATE (6 Sept 2008): I was happy to see one of our pastors, Most Rev. R. Walker Nickless, reiterate essentially what I've said here and expand even further. Always nice to be in such illustrious company. :)UPDATE (11 Sept 2008): Seems that Pelosi and Biden's remarks have provided a very timely opportunity for the Church to reiterate her changeless teaching on these crucial issues as well as provide more solid guidance for Catholic (or just plain conscientious) voters.UPDATE (14 Sept 2008): I just ran across this little video on CatholicVote.com that kind of says in pictures what I say above. I should say the conclusions about the primacy of life and family are the same, though I deal with it from a not-specifically-Catholic perspective in my text.
UPDATE (12 Oct 2008): Just noting more bishops reinforcing this. Bishop Joseph Martino of Scranton (where Biden likes to point out he hails from) and Bishop David Zubik of Pittsburgh. Bishop Martino is one of the clearest and forceful messages on this issue so far.UPDATE (22 Oct 2008): Most Reverend Kevin J. Farrell and Most Reverence Kevin W. Vann (of Dallas and Ft. Worth, TX, respectively) have offered yet more clarification (PDF) on these issues. UPDATE (1 Nov 2008): This'll be my last update I expect, given the nearness of the election. I've come across a few more bishops speaking out, but I was pleased to find that someone's been keeping a lot closer tabs. Over 115 U.S. bishops have spoken out in recent months to defend the (true) Catholic position on these and related matters as they pertain to our participation in the democratic process. Honestly, this is amazing and heartening. Our bishops seem to be hardening their collective backbones. Kudos to them and thank God.
I just ran across Alan Cooper's keynote at Agile 2008. The gist is that he's making the case for integrating interaction design into Agile development, something that is near and dear to me, as well. I was pleasantly surprised by his talk, and I recommend it to all my dev friends.
You can quickly scan through the slides and his notes to get the whole story. I'm not sure if I could have said it better myself!
I'm heading out to San Francisco Monday to get my UX on at UX Week 2008! It's my first time both in the city and at that conference. Looking forward to meeting new folks and talking about making great software experiences. If you're in the area or at the conference, send me an email (ambrogio[at]gmail) or ping me on crowdvine. I'd be glad to get together to talk about UX, software, architecture, whatever!
The opinions expressed herein are solely my own personal opinions, founded or unfounded, rational or not, and you can quote me on that.
Thanks to the good folks at dasBlog!

The usable payload of many 4X4 vehicles today is minimal. Additional basic optional equipment and two or three adult male occupants will bring the vehicle close to its legal maximum weight (GVM) in many cases. Add long range fuel tanks, bull bars, winches, side steps, roof racks, recovery gear and a payload of camping equipment or an industrial type custom body and the vehicle will ultimately exceed the Original Equipment allowable Gross Vehicle Mass.
Original Equipment suspension is designed for comfort above all other considerations, thus load carrying and performance can be compromised. Whereas, GVM designed suspension systems come with matched components for the ultimate in performance, load carrying, and handling.
